    Good thing I didn't unpin this. Just when you think it's all going away. Oregon goes full retard and demands Juden Stars. Unbelievable. They seem to have a moral imperative to keep the fear train on the tracks.

    HIPAA makes it illegal to ask you to divulge medical information. Costco's policy is to ask although here in CDA they did not ask but they can't ask for paperwork. So just lie. The whole thing is a big lie anyway.

    It doesn't matter if the written law says it's illegal. Oregon statutory authorization allows the governor to declare a state emergency for a period of 30 days and be allowed to issue executive decisions. After 30 day, the authorization expires unless renewed by the state legislature. The legislature has not authorized any extension. But in spite of the clear written law, the Oregon Supreme Court said the governor has inherent power to issue executive orders. There are no inherent powers unless authorized by the state constitution. There isn't, but leftards and leftard judges don't care, they just care about power.

    Three weeks ago, there were fears that COVID was increasing again and Governor Inslee was thinking of backtracking on reopening the State.

    Local papers were carrying stories warning that herd immunity was impossible.

    But a careful analysis of the numbers, as provided in my blog of May 1st, showed the opposite: that Washington COVID cases were about to plummet.

    And that is exactly what has happened.

    Washington State COVID is collapsing. And it makes perfect sense.

    If you read my earlier blog, the analysis started by trying to get a measure of the percentage of residents (of each state) that possessed antibodies to COVID, This was done by adding the percentage vaccinated to the percent that was immune because of contracting COVID.

    You simply can't look at vaccinations alone, as some have done. And to estimate the percentage with COVID immunity, I multiplied the number of reported cases by three, since there are many cases that are not reported or are asymptomatic. There is strong support in the scientific literature for this multiplier, with several papers/reports based on serology data.

    Then I compared this measure of the population's antibody rate to the change of COVID for the previous two weeks (last half of April) for all 50 states.

    I was stunned with the result. Once my measure of COVID immunity got to roughly 70%, the number of cases collapsed. A transition to herd immunity was occurring.

    Oregon wants proof of vaccination if you want to take your mask off

    Lockdown Kate Brown just can't give it up. Demanding vaccine passports. No science, just authoritarianism. Yet, our beta males, scared suburban house wifes and the free shitters will continue to vote for her, Inslee or Newsome or someone worse. For some big retailer, like say FM, with five or six entry doors, they aren't ever going to have 6 employees looking for fake vaccine licenses.
