A new word, in a handful of similar ones, which have one main purpose: to cultivate the mysticism of power… What exactly is this “pharmacovigilance” that came up for the first time in modern social life? If you ask an “expert” (or even a government official) in our area, 11 out of 10 will try to deceive you. It is better to turn to one of the main sources of these “basic elements” of the new normal. …a rare media interview with the Wall Street Journal (wrote Whitney Webb last October on the defender’s pediatric site) given by the “Vaccine …

Remember the “debate” last spring / summer about digital tracking techniques? When mobile phones would (supposedly) communicate with each other “informing” their users that they were “at a distance of infection” from someone “positive”?
