So, we have reached a global total of 5 million COVID-19 cases today, a couple of days before I suggested it would. That means the case load is not slowing down but is in fact speeding up slightly. Now that may be due to the increased rate of testing worldwide, or it may not. Whatever... Continue Reading →
COVID-19 Update, May 15, 2020
I am interested only in global statistics relating to the COVID-19 pandemic. National statistics are quite meaningless for comparison purposes other than against the background of the global situation due to the wide variability of national social and other conditions and population levels. So, the world reached a total of 300,000 COVID-19 deaths yesterday, three... Continue Reading →
A Brief COVID-19 Update
It appears that the stable relationship between coronavirus reported cases and deaths may be becoming less stable than it has been over the last 8 weeks or so. I expected to see by today a death count of some 300,000. OK, its not far short of that figure and by the end of the day... Continue Reading →
A Brief COVID-19 Update.
Today, as I forecast up to 2 weeks ago, the global case level has reached 4 million and I can now confidently claim there will be 400,000 deaths reported by May 22 as I also said some days ago. First we have to pass the 300,000 mark on or around May 11. The global trajectory... Continue Reading →
Whose Got The Wuhan Willies?
Whoa! What's going on? Australia going against official US opinion? How so? Well, it's quite simple really. The US administration and their intelligence (that always brings a smile to my face) community (neither of which has any 'believability' credits left in their public accounts) have a line to push. No, it's not 'Russiagate'. That one has... Continue Reading →
COVID-19 Update, May 4, 2020
Well then, as dispassionately as I can, remembering that these are people's lives being discussed, I'm going to say that it is almost exactly a week since the global total number of COVID-19 cases reached 3 million and, looking ahead, I said 4 million cases would have been counted in a little over 2 weeks...

More on US Biolabs & COVID-19
Two days ago I posted a story on the Ukraine political opposition accusing the US of attempting to hide information about that nation's secret Biolab's operations on Ukrainian Territory. Today I came across this story, "Will the US be Sued over COVID-19? Or what have Pentagon’s Biolabs been Up To?" - Valery Kulikov for New Eastern... Continue Reading →
The West Be Damned
The West, apparently led - perhaps for appearances sake - by Australia, is particularly interested in laying blame and finding further reason to castigate China on the origins of the COVID-19 pandemic outbreak. Strange. Especially when there is no evidence at all that the disease actually started in China or that that nation had anything... Continue Reading →
A Confusing and Difficult Problem or Question
Another great insightful post by James Howard Kunstler - 'The Great Conundrum'. He's a man of vision, and don't we need that just now. Nothing is ever going to be the same again. I've said that myself before. But the broken and breaking things we are most likely to try to mend after COVID-19 has... Continue Reading →
