Four years ago, at the beginning of the Covid pandemic, the National Institutes of Health gathered a group of experts to provide Covid-19 recommendations to health care providers and issued the first version of the “Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) Treatment Guidelines on April 21, 2020.”
You can read those guidelines at this link.
Forty experts gathered to review data and make recommendations that would be followed worldwide. The NIH was extremely influential in controlling the narrative and ensuring a lockstep approach to Covid treatment. That included multiple jabs, face masks, social distancing, closing businesses, isolating the sick, etc. Any alternative therapies were frowned upon, and Dr. Anthony Fauci, who served as the director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases from 1984 to 2022, and the chief medical advisor to the president from 2021 to 2022, led the charge.
The government stayed diligent in updating these guidelines as new therapies approved by the government became available. Even though the federal Covid-19 Public Health Emergency was ended by President Joe Biden in May 2023, this panel of experts at NIH continued to review the guidelines and update them as needed. They released 72 versions of the guidelines during the Covid years.
Now more than a year after the health emergency was officially over, the NIH will stop updating the information and take down the website that has the recommendations on it, citing that other professional organizations will continue to provide those guidelines (as they did these last four years).
Meanwhile, the mainstream media are firing warning shots with articles about the uptick in Covid rates caused by the latest highly contagious new variants. Dr. Peter Chin-Hong, a professor of medicine and infectious disease specialist at the University of California, is sounding the alarm. Dr. Chin-Hong stated “you have a very, very transmissible variant, probably one of the most transmissible we’ve had. We have a lot of population immunity, but it doesn’t mean that there isn’t a lot of chaos.”
The “you should be worried bell” is being rung again to foment fear. But fear not: The government is ready with a new Covid jab that is coming out this fall for those of you who feel a desire to get the jab. And rather than call it a “booster,” it will simply become the annual shot you need to take, much like the push to take the flu shot. The government has promised it will be updated to be “effective” against whatever the current strain is.
It’s unclear how the government will do that as the little bugger has mutated faster than pharmaceutical companies can make an effective update.
So, why now with Covid on the uptick would the NIH choose to take down its web page concerning Covid treatments?
It seems the NIH suddenly realized other professional organizations were also posting guidelines. Or perhaps it was that the NIH realized new treatment modalities for Covid have slowed to a drip. And NIH stated they are getting fewer and fewer calls asking for advice.
Dr. Cliff Lane, director of the clinical research division at the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases and a co-chair of the panel, stated there are “specialty doctors’ groups — such as the American College of Physicians and the Infectious Diseases Society of America — who will be the keepers of Covid-19 treatment guidance from now on. They’re the usual stewards of best-practice guidelines anyway.”
I didn’t see where they would archive the data so you could access it in the future. NIH announced “the COVID-19 Treatment Guidelines website will remain available until August 16, 2024, and will provide a downloadable PDF of the final version of the Guidelines.”
I recommend you download a copy so you can review which recommendations worked or didn’t work. This would also be useful information if you were harmed by some of the “recommendations” and need a copy of them for a future lawsuit.
As we “close” this episode of American history, Dr. Marty Makary, professor and surgeon at The Johns Hopkins Hospital, summed up those Covid years well. He said:
- “The greatest perpetrator of misinformation during the pandemic has been the U.S. government. Misinformation that Covid was spread through surface transmission, that vaccinated immunity was far greater than natural immunity, that masks were effective … That myocarditis was more common after the infection than the vaccine. We’ve seen something which is unforgivable, and that is the weaponization of medical research itself … Public health officials were intellectually dishonest. They lied to the American people.”
Many people were fearful and believed the government four years ago. I don’t think many people will ride that train again, but then again, who knows? Fear is a powerful tool, especially when it is used by any government.
Linda Boyle, RN, MSN, DM, was formerly the chief nurse for the 3rd Medical Group, JBER, and was the interim director of the Alaska VA. Most recently, she served as Director for Central Alabama VA Healthcare System. She is the director of the Alaska Covid Alliance.
Fauci should be in Gitmo. He contributed to the deaths of more Americans than radical Islam ever could.
The Covid fiasco served its purpose and is old news. What was done by those at the NIH and their collaborators was treason.
MAKE IT GO AWAY!!!! JUST MAKE IT GO AWAY!! I had what I thought was covid twice and for me it was a cold.
It’s going to be a long long time before I trust anything WHO or CDC come out with to be anything but bs. They destroyed all trust or believability that I had for them. I’m even having problems having trust in my local doctors. Even tho they were threatened with losing their medical license if they disagreed with the orders they were given. I think WHO should be abolished right now for the damage them have caused on mankind. If WHO said that the sun is going to come up in the east tomorrow, I’d have to wait until in the morning to believe them. And then I’d go outdoors in my skivvies to see for myself.
Oh no they don’t get to get away with this. Never forget what they did to this country.
Of course the are getting away with it. I said from the beginning that this was never about any virus. That it was 100% about keeping the banking system from collapsing due to the REPO market collapse in 2019. The Federal Reserve need something to tell the public. I told everyone to load up un gold. Glad I was prepared for this a year in advance when the Bank of International Settlements warned everyone in March 2019 that the Scamdemic was going to occur. I was way ahead of the totally dumbed down population.
Who do we sue?
Bury the evidence!
Counterpoint – Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA) Health Forum, last Friday published The excess death rate in Massachusetts, the state with the tightest Covid restrictions during the study period, was less than one-fifth that of Mississippi, the state with the loosest rules. If all states had followed more the lenient practices in the Southeast or Texas, as many as 200,000 people would have died, the study found. The most effective responses were mask mandates and vaccine requirements, the JAMA Health Forum study found. But hey, let’s not let facts get in the way of conspiracies!
Time for another booster shot Sebastian.
For the children.
For the elderly.
Do your part.
BigPharma is counting on you.
Still wearing your mask in the car while driving alone – I think it was you I saw on the Glenn Hwy?…
The AMA, the American Diabetes Association, the American Heart Association, et al, are all in bed with Big Pharma and as such, any information that they regurgitate should be taken with a big lump of salt. They should be investigated by Congress and forced to disband as they serve no useful purpose other than to line their pockets!
Look at the latest information posted from autopsies indicating that the surge in heart deaths in the world is due to the “shots” and what they do to a person’s heart system. There was more covid spread as more people took the shots due to “shedding”, yet they made people believe that the non-shot takers were the spreaders! How stupid can we be over this??? We were duped by Big Pharma. If the shots were so great, why did we not require them to be given to all the people coming across the border to “protect us citizens”??? Maybe it was for the great “reset” planned for America by the “elite 300”.
Try to stay on topic here, Sebastian. The column appears to be about treatment, not prevention. And if we’re going to compare Massachusetts with Mississippi, can we at least not recognize that obesity is a pandemic in Mississippi, at over 40 percent of the population being obese, which was a very big factor for mortality during Covid. Mississippi is the second-highest in the nation for obesity. Massachusetts has only 24 percent obesity, nearly half. Now let’s look at smoking — 17.4 percent of Mississippi adults smoke. It is 10.4 percent of adults in Massachusetts.
Mississippi is the second-least healthy state in the nation, Mass. is No. 1…..so to your counterpoint, you are not comparing similar states.

You’re comparing extremes, Sebastian. That’s what extremists do, I guess.
Sebastian will never admit that he is a “Sheeple” that did the bidding of the MSM, BigPharma, social media, and the propaganda apparatus of the federal government.
If he did – he couldn’t look at himself in the mirror.
The first global psyops – and he willingly capitulates AND cast aspersions towards those that dare question the narrative and fought to maintain their bodily sovereignty.
