The following report is from Dutch outlet Front Nieuws:
While the story of COVID-19 unfolded in early 2020, claiming every moment of our attention, there was another historic health event involving a viral family member.
This unprecedented event strangely coincided with the COVID-19 crisis, but found no resonance in the media landscape.
The 2020 media season started with warnings that the coming flu season was destined to become one of the worst in history. Even CDC/NIAID’s Grand Poobah himself, Anthony Fauci, predicted early on that the 2020 flu season would be one of the worst in decades.
Despite those early predictions, reports of the predicted flu disaster in early March became scarce to non-existent.
At the same time, the CDC reduced its comprehensive “Fluenza View” Surveillance System, its flagship product for 22 years, and shifted its focus to another “Influenza Like Illness” (ILI), COVID-19.
While the world was under the spell of this “new” killing virus, the time-honored seasonal virus known as “the flu” fell to an all-time low , disappearing almost entirely from the CDC’s surveillance system.
Was it a coincidence that our old friend “the flu” left the scene at the exact moment COVID set in?
How could this disappearance happen so abruptly?
An analysis of the CDC’s report on the surveillance of the flu shows the unnatural speed of this departure, and how early in 2020 it occurred, disproving the idea that masks or lockdowns played a role in this disappearance.
A close look at datasets generated from the CDC’s own surveillance reports reveals unexplained anomalies in the CDC’s ILI tracking system that predated the arrival of COVID-19, which is sure to raise some eyebrows and raise even more questions rise, given the CDC’s history with data manipulation .
A Brief History
The CDC introduced its weekly flu surveillance reports 22 years ago, during the 1999/2000 season. Only small amounts of data were analyzed in these first reports, thus providing only a limited amount of detailed information. For undisclosed reasons, the CDC ramped up surveillance reports in the 2007/08 season.
In the 07/08 season, the CDC reports doubled in length and provided significantly more detail in US National Influenza Surveillance data. What was once a small business became a big business, with weekly reports mushrooming from a mere 3 pages to 10-12 pages, packed with colorful charts and regional information.
As the focus on the flu data grew, each report became more specific. The tables below are a result of those reports. The entire dataset can be viewed in the CDC ‘s past weekly surveillance reports.
The granularity and comprehensive reporting of the seasonal flu would remain a cornerstone of the CDC’s overall mission and reporting through March/April 2020.
Understanding The Tables
The eight tables below, representing weeks 5-14 over an eight-year period (2013-2020), are from the CDC’s Annual Report on Influenza Surveillance.
Weeks 5-14, charted from 2013-2019, parallel the start of the COVID 2020 crisis and also represent the weeks in 2020 when the “flu” disappeared from view.
The first column on the left, seen below in Table 1 (2013) and Table 2 (2014), stands for specific weeks and the date that week started.
The middle column illustrates the number of tests taken and the number of “positive” results.
The far right column shows the percentage of “flu positive” in that week. This last number, the flu-positive rate, is the most salient of this survey.
An examination of Tables 1-4 (2013-2016), illustrates how the flu numbers calculated by the CDC, week after week, yield remarkably consistent seasonal trends. Historically, the “flu-positive” numbers have been highest around February/March, gradually decreasing as the “flu season” subsides and spring sets in.
From these tables, it can be seen that declines of more than 2% from week to week are extremely rare, and that declines of more than 3% are virtually non-existent.
In short, upward spikes or sharp dips of any kind – so far – simply do not occur.
A shift has occurred in 2017, as the CDC introduced a more aggressive testing system, resulting in a significant increase in numbers across the board and much higher “flu” rates. Table 5 (2017) and Table 6 (2018) illustrate this remarkable change in the CDC flu surveillance overall numbers.
The previous record of tests given in any given time frame, 25,855 tests, from week 10 of 2016, was broken in 6 consecutive weeks in 2017. In 2018, that record was broken 7 consecutive times and doubled in 3 of those weeks.
Overall rates of positive flu cases also reached record highs during that period, increasing by an average of 3.5% per week.
Simply put: many more people got tested, more people were diagnosed with the flu and a higher percentage of those tested were found “positive”.
Why the CDC has embarked on such a drastic acceleration of their testing regimen is certainly an important question, but not the purpose of this study.
It is important to emphasize that despite the significant increase in the number of tests, the increase in the total number of “cases” and the increases in the percentage, the general seasonal trends have remained the same. In other words, there was no deviation from the historical trend of “flu positives” increasing in February/March and decreasing in early April.
Table 7 (2019) shows the same pattern as in Tables 5 and 6.
As in 2018, testing numbers remained high—each of Weeks 5-14 of the 2019 CDC Flu Surveillance Report surpassed that previous record of 25,855 from 2016.
Equally noteworthy, 5 of those 10 weeks in 2019 reported “flu-positive” numbers of 20% or more. A look back at our tables shows that the total composition of “flu-positives” reached an all-time high in 2019 – an overall increase of 3% per week from the previous record of 2017.
Going back to our previous tables, 2019 represented a remarkable total weekly increase in the number of “flu positives” of 8% per week compared to 2013, and 11% compared to the weekly average in 2015.
Again, while the overall “flu-positive” percentage continued to climb in 2019, the overall seasonal trend remained the same – the numbers went up slightly from week to week and then gradually declined as we moved further into April.
Before examining Table 8, we should recall that, according to the CDC, 2020 has started as a “serious” flu season. Table 8 shows that this prediction takes a sharp turn with the arrival of COVID-19.
As can be seen in Table 8, the week 5 test numbers were quite robust. Only in one other season, 2018, had so many tests been completed in weeks 5, 6 or 7 – no other season came close to these numbers.
In these early three weeks of 2020, the CDC’s “flu-positives” represented the three highest rates of “flu-positive” ever in the CDC’s 22-year history of tracking the flu. An inspection of the CDC flu data makes it impossible to ignore the historical numbers from weeks 5, 6 and 7.
What came next was even more incredible.
The historical trend of “flu” declining ended in Week 10 (March 7, 2020), when “flu-positive” numbers fell off a cliff.
Week 10 (21.5%) to Week 11 (15.3%) experienced a steep decline of 6.2%. Week 11 (15.3%) to Week 12 (6.9%) “flu positives” dropped an astonishing 8.4% in a single week.
By the time we reach week 13 of 2020 (Table 8) the “flu positives” have fallen to 2.1%. In week 14, the “flu” is virtually non-existent with a positive percentage of 0.8%.
While fewer tests (22,324) were conducted in Week 14 of 2020 than in previous weeks, those are still the second-highest total Week 14 tests in all CDC records. Yet for week 14 only 0.8% “flu-positives” were recorded, compared to the previous 7-year average of 12.5% for that same week.
There was simply no historical analog for this event. For all practical (and statistical) purposes, the flu no longer existed.
Anyone who works with data knows that such sudden shocks are an alarm signal. In the real world, it usually points to a problem with the data collection and/or accounting methods, because nature’s data always follows their bell curves.
Given the bizarre circumstances of this unparalleled statistical outlier, several questions beg to be answered.
How could the flu numbers go from all-time highs in weeks 5,6 and 7 of 2020 to all-time lows in weeks 13 and 14 of that same year?
Has the flu just been renamed and given a new purpose with a more terrifying virus event?
Is it possible that after all these years, the CDC has decided that the flu, which brought in billions in profit for Big Pharma, needed to be replaced with a “more deadly” and more profitable virus?
CODA
On October 28-29, 2019, The Milken Institute hosted “The Future of Health Summit”, which brought together “thought leaders and decision-makers to address some of the world’s most important health challenges by connecting human, financial and educational resources with the most innovative and impactful ideas.”
One of the most notable discussions of this two-day event took place on the 29th: A panel of “health experts” met to discuss the “scientific and technological prospects for an effective universal flu vaccine.”
The full video of this conversation can be viewed here on C-SPAN.
Speakers included Dr. Anthony Fauci, Director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, Margaret Hamburg, Former FDA Commissioner, Bruce Gellin, President of the Sabin Vaccine Institute (Global Immunisation), Casey Wright, CEO of FluLab, Michael Specter, Editor at the New Yorker and associate professor of bioengineering at Stanford University, and Rick Bright, director of the Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority (BARDA) of the United States Department of Health and Human Services.
This panel discussion focused on “the need for increased funding for research, better collaboration between the private and public sectors, technological advances in influenza research, and the goal of a universal influenza vaccine.”
Two general themes emerged from this meeting. The first idea emphasized the desire for a new way to produce vaccines. Anthony Fauci lamented that introducing a new kind of vaccine, such as an mRNA vaccine, would take at least a decade “if everything goes perfectly.”
Rick Bright suggested that the long-term development problem could be circumvented if…
There would be an urgent need for a sensational event that would be highly disruptive and not bound by bureaucratic guidelines and processes.
The second issue concerned the “need” for something new and more terrifying to emerge, as the flu no longer created enough fear in the general population to warrant such a “universal vaccine”.
Anthony Fauci went into this hitch:
So we really have a problem with the way the world perceives the flu, and it will be very difficult to change that unless they do it from the inside out and say, I don’t care how you perceive the flu, we’re going tackling the problem in a disruptive and iterative way because it needs both.
In response to Fauci’s comment, Rick Bright stated:
But it’s not too crazy to think that there could be an outbreak of a new bird virus somewhere in China. We could get the RNA sequence from that, to some regional or local centers, if not even your home at some point, and print those vaccines onto a patch for self-administration.
With the disappearance of the flu and the rise of COVID-19, both of those problems were solved.
AUTHOR COMMENTARY
A faithful witness will not lie: but a false witness will utter lies.
Proverbs 14:5
If you recall near the last year, fears of the flu finally returned after being completely non-existent since 2020, and were chastised and viewed as a conspiracist for even daring to point out the obvious. Moreover, a test was being used that was never designed for acute illness also amplified this craze, where quite literally anyone under the sun could test positive and not be sick; which the excuse was then you are an “asymptomatic spreader.”
“Flurona:” The Name For The Latest Propaganda Variant
But furthermore, when it was revealed very early on – and remained this way throughout – all these supposed cases of Covid were super minor.
As I noted in my recent report about the whole fiasco surrounding the potential for snake venom in the water, I noted that quite literally all other diseases and causes of death saw massive reductions across the board; and it’s not like anyone got any healthier since then, by and large. This means all those illnesses were being called Covid, which explained why the symptoms were basically everything imaginable. I mentioned that in the report about the venom because for the venom to be in the water, then we should have seen an exponential amount of people losing their taste and smell, and so on; but that did not happen, and those that did were SUPER rare, and can be explained with EMFs/5G, nutrient deficiencies, toxicity, and more.
New Documentary Claims That Covid-19 And Treatments Are Actually Snake Venom. Is It True? *UPDATE*
At that the end of the day, Covid-19 was and always will be a total lie from start to finish.
[7] Who goeth a warfare any time at his own charges? who planteth a vineyard, and eateth not of the fruit thereof? or who feedeth a flock, and eateth not of the milk of the flock? [8] Say I these things as a man? or saith not the law the same also? [9] For it is written in the law of Moses, Thou shalt not muzzle the mouth of the ox that treadeth out the corn. Doth God take care for oxen? [10] Or saith he it altogether for our sakes? For our sakes, no doubt, this is written: that he that ploweth should plow in hope; and that he that thresheth in hope should be partaker of his hope. (1 Corinthians 9:7-10).

What’s the story/meaning/significance behind the dung bread in Ezekiel 4?
I know that’s off-topic to the article, but relating to the judgment, scarcity, & famine, it looks to be only too relevent looking at this. Profitable. Perhaps the brethren looking at this passage & the related verses throughout scripture will have more input.
–
Ezekiel can be obscure, and the passage is dense: the uncovered, outstretched arm gave me pause which I hadn’t seen before: but I think there is some plain-ness & application here as judgment on a nation, & the whole world, beginning with the house of God approaches fast, & some hope & understanding & guidance for us now, & for those later going into the worst of it. See Philippians 3:8, the last verse of the word study on ‘dung’ throughout scripture.
–
The bread was of several grains & legumes: 6, cooked over a fire of dried dung. To be eaten sparingly & in a certain way.
–
In Ezekiel 4, God laid the iniquity of Jerusalem upon Ezekiel, the prophet. The prophets were the word of God in those days. It foretold the days of the coming judgment & siege of Jerusalem, coming because of her iniquity, by Babylon. The righteous would suffer, too, but God provided subsistence for them through it, & softened the sacrilege somewhat by giving him the dung of cattle rather than of men to cook it by.
–
It rather foreshadows Daniel refusing the food offered to idols in Daniel 1, showing his dedication & faith in God, & establishing a difference, separation.
–
Another thing, three hundred & ninety days seems significant here. Isn’t there a number like that relating to the coming time of Jacob’s trouble? The non-dispensational always point out that it doesn’t exactly match the three hundred and sixty, 3 1/2 years. Have always wondered if the extra days related to the cleansing of the land spoken of in Isaiah.
–
I’ll check into that further, set me straight if I have that wrong, please.
–
Ezekiel 4:9-17 KJB ¶ Take thou also unto thee wheat, and barley, and beans, and lentiles, and millet, and fitches, and put them in one vessel, and make thee bread thereof, according to the number of the days that thou shalt lie upon thy side, three hundred and ninety days shalt thou eat thereof.
Eze 4:10 And thy meat which thou shalt eat shall be by weight, twenty shekels a day: from time to time shalt thou eat it.
Eze 4:11 Thou shalt drink also water by measure, the sixth part of an hin: from time to time shalt thou drink.
Eze 4:12 And thou shalt eat it as barley cakes, and thou shalt bake it with dung that cometh out of man, in their sight.
Eze 4:13 And the LORD said, Even thus shall the children of Israel eat their defiled bread among the Gentiles, whither I will drive them.
Eze 4:14 Then said I, Ah Lord GOD! behold, my soul hath not been polluted: for from my youth up even till now have I not eaten of that which dieth of itself, or is torn in pieces; neither came there abominable flesh into my mouth.
Eze 4:15 Then he said unto me, Lo, I have given thee cow’s dung for man’s dung, and thou shalt prepare thy bread therewith.
Eze 4:16 Moreover he said unto me, Son of man, behold, I will break the staff of bread in Jerusalem: and they shall eat bread by weight, and with care; and they shall drink water by measure, and with astonishment:
Eze 4:17 That they may want bread and water, and be astonied one with another, and consume away for their iniquity.
———————————————————————–
It was also a little picture of Christ who bore the iniquities & uncleannesses of us all. Christ as Prophet. Christ as the Word. Christ as our Saviour. Which puts the judgments, trials & sufferings into perspective for us.
–
In the scarcity, fuel for cooking fires would be precious, & unclean dung would come to be used. It’s not unheard of: When the great wagon trains were moving west across the great prairies here where there were no trees, the settlers would have the children gather buffalo dung as they moved slowly west. Then they would use it for cooking fires when they camped. And, the merchant caravans of the east used dung for that, too, in desolate & desert places.
–
For the Jews, though, it was unclean. The dung & all of the bullock, save the fat typifying the soul & offered in fire sacrifice, was unclean, a sin offering, & was to be burned outside the camp.
–
What came out of a man was not to be touched, but to be voided outside the camp & then buried with a paddle on the weapon they were commanded to carry always when abroad. Deuteronomy 23:13 KJB. Jesus referred to this speaking of sin which defiles a man & comes from within, relating to ritual washing tradition added to the scriptures & messing up the types. See Matthew 15 KJB.
–
This having practical & spiritual significance. The Gentiles were horrifically unclean, even up into the nineteenth century men like the one the ‘alternative health’ pagan & emergent like to set up as the antithesis to the now demonized Pasteur, Bechamp, believed the old pagan evolution stories of life from non-life. They thought that rotting meat bred worms, & chamber pots, rats! When Pasteur did his closed tubing experimentation proving it came of contaminants & other life: biogenesis rather than the pagan abiogenesis…they hated him for that. Now they totally misrepresent that whole thing, calling it ‘germ theory’, and making him, & non-paganized, non-Romish ‘Christianity’ without distinction, responsible for the global monopolists, ‘big’ pharma, & predatory banking & capitalism. Dialectic diversion & setting Rome up to be the ‘hero/saviour’: gonna figure into the transhumanist, potential ‘alien/angel’ interpretations of the time of Jacob’s trouble & Daniel’s 70th week for sure, & looks to be beginning now with the covid steering set-up. Dr. Tom Cowan &such are huge proponents teaching viruses, are not really viruses but code, & that they are the ‘key’ to proving & understanding biological evolution merging into cosmic creation-deifying & worshipping spiritism. They seek to manipulate the code by thought, attitude, disciplines, diet etc ….and there’s truth mixed into the confusion & false interpretation, revisionism etc, but that’s a whole other ball of wax.
–
God will sort it out, we can be sure of that. We just need to be plain of our distinctions & separation from the antichrist spirituality in that stuff. Cleveland Clinic taking control of most healthcare in our area, & they are rampant with new agey & scientology types: white European, Catholic, Hindu & Arabic….a milieu….and so-called Christians like TenPenny circling the fringes. I don’t trust ANY of them. They claim to be the opposite of this covid takeover thing, but I think they’re just another arm of it & what covid is meant to steer us toward receiving.
–
I think some of the Ezekiel Bread & Daniel diet fad stuff that went the alternative health rounds in Christian circles & into nuttiness brought God’s displeasure, & reproach on the way of Christ, too. They made a big deal of the nutritional perfection & scientific wisdom of ‘God’s word’ while not taking a stand on the King James which is inconsistent & suspect, and they hardly cooked it over dung!
–
Some even promoted an extremist vegetarianism by those passages….totally missing the real & main point, & remaining unrepentant & unclean themselves. It went into pagan asceticism & mysticism rooted in the counterfeiting, corrupting antichrist spirit…and merchandising.
–
Here are the 26 verses in the King James Bible with ‘dung’ in them, & there is a theme that emerges pretty quickly:
–
Ex 29:14 But the flesh of the bullock, and his skin, and his dung, shalt thou burn with fire without the camp: it is a sin offering.
–
Le 4:11 And the skin of the bullock, and all his flesh, with his head, and with his legs, and his inwards, and his dung,

–
Le 16:27 And the bullock for the sin offering, and the goat for the sin offering, whose blood was brought in to make atonement in the holy place, shall one carry forth without the camp; and they shall burn in the fire their skins, and their flesh, and their dung.
–
Nu 19:5 And one shall burn the heifer in his sight; her skin, and her flesh, and her blood, with her dung, shall he burn:
–
1Ki 14:10 Therefore, behold, I will bring evil upon the house of Jeroboam, and will cut off from Jeroboam him that pisseth against the wall, and him that is shut up and left in Israel, and will take away the remnant of the house of Jeroboam, as a man taketh away dung, till it be all gone.
–

–
2Ki 18:27 But Rab-shakeh said unto them, Hath my master sent me to thy master, and to thee, to speak these words? hath he not sent me to the men which sit on the wall, that they may eat their own dung, and drink their own piss with you?
–
Ne 2:13 And I went out by night by the gate of the valley, even before the dragon well, and to the dung port, and viewed the walls of Jerusalem, which were broken down, and the gates thereof were consumed with fire.

–

–
Ps 83:10 Which perished at En-dor: they became as dung for the earth.
–
Isa 36:12 But Rabshakeh said, Hath my master sent me to thy master and to thee to speak these words? hath he not sent me to the men that sit upon the wall, that they may eat their own dung, and drink their own piss with you?

–
Php 3:8 Yea doubtless, and I count all things but loss for the excellency of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord: for whom I have suffered the loss of all things, and do count them but dung, that I may win Christ,
It could be a good possibility that COVID-19 would be renamed “Avian Flu (whatever strain it may be)”, to make COVID-19 sound more legitimate. The media always has something up their sleeves.
