![]() ![]() No highly paid professional in his or her right mind would want to kill the goose laying the golden eggs? To date, many would argue Pfizer’s marketing and especially control of mass media has been second to none. However, such treatments offer a very different outlook with regard to recurring revenue versus chronic therapies…” The GS report cited in the Ars piece stated “the potential to deliver “one shot cures” is one of the most attractive aspects of gene therapy, genetically engineered cell therapy, and gene editing. Sadly, Pfizer’s strategists have been paying attention to the Goldman Sachs’ analysis reported earlier this year. So the statement that it is safe to say we will have Covid forever is not just your opinion, it is also the opinion of the experts who made the vaccine. So in early 2021 it was “lockdown because not enough people are vaccinated,” in late 2021 and early 2022 it will be “lockdown because not enough people have gotten their booster shots.” And if you thought it was hard getting everyone vaccinated now, wait until you try to get them to all come in for a booster shot every six months… This means that the scientists who know more about the Covid vaccine than anyone in the world do not believe that the Covid vaccine will completely stop Covid they foresee a need for booster shots through 2024. On the question of whether or not we can expect more shutdowns in the future: in their last quarterly earnings call, Pfizer reported that the Covid vaccine will be a “durable” source of revenue for the company. Not too many folks in Finland are going to be unhappy reading (“Lumber prices seem to set a new record almost daily, now up 67% this year and up 340% from a year ago, according to Random Lengths, a wood products industry tracking firm.”) That’s a good trend for a country where forestry is a big percentage of GDP (see ). Although of course there is no inflation, wood is now retailing for 3X what it cost prior to March 2020. ![]() If I had to guess why Finland is doing well economically, the guess would be that the country has huge reserves of natural resources, e.g., timber and metals. ![]() (but with modern Coronascience we can see that the best time to form a hypothesis, e.g., that Finland is the most obvious comparison nation to Sweden, is after all of the data are received and maybe population density isn’t explanatory because Czech Republic, Slovenia, and Slovakia are all low in density yet were near the top of the world’s COVID-19 death rate statistics) That’s perhaps why the NYT, back in April 2020, thought that Britain, France, Ireland were the appropriate comparison countries. An explanation is in the article and in the above-cited figure! (though, as noted above, none of these data will convince any Church of Shutdown worshipers) Lithuania, Norway, and Finland have very low population-weighted population density. ![]()
