	I</span>understand that both WHO and the UN are hoping that COVID-19 will no longer be a Public Health emergency in 2023. This would end the restrictions and managing the virus as another respiratory illness among many others. For one, I would be happy to be done with mask and vaccine mandates.</p>



<p>As I write, lawsuits are being filed all over the United States for <a href="https://www.shrm.org/resourcesandtools/legal-and-compliance/employment-law/pages/coronavirus-lawsuits-challenge-vaccination-mandates.aspx" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">violation of rights with the mandatory vaccine policies</a>. Meanwhile in our “banana country” here is the run-down of our pandemic and government continued response.</p>



<p>Let’s look back how this all began. In March 2020, all of Honduras began a national lock down. Soon there were no spaces left in rooms at hospitals and not enough respirators. There were no ICU rooms spaces either.</p>



<p>Honduras unveiled the introduction of the <a href="https://www.voanews.com/a/covid-19-pandemic_trump-joins-growing-list-virus-infected-world-leaders/6196662.html" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">MAIZ</a> (Microdacyn, Azithromycin, Ivermectin and Zinc) protocol as prophylactic treatment for COVID with no clue of its effectiveness.</p>



<p>By the end of 2020 we had vaccines donated to the government which promptly declared they were mandatory for all the population without further research, or care.</p>



<p>Then the Honduran government under the state of emergency purchased seven modular or <a href="https://www.occrp.org/en/coronavirus/mr-hispanopreneurtm-the-man-behind-honduras-47-million-dollar-coronavirus-disaster" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">mobile hospitals for almost $48 million</a>. These hospitals have yet to arrive and only two government officials have been prosecuted for this multimillion-dollar fraud. There is nothing better than a world health crisis to bring out the lowlifes who are looking to profit from the chaos and death.</p>



<p>The COVID vaccinations were made mandatory for all Hondurans, regardless of their medical conditions, or religious beliefs. I still ask myself were we made to act like the sheep led to slaughter. Or were our instincts to trust the government, to follow the science wherever it would lead.</p>



<p>The mask mandate that <a href="https://www.city-journal.org/masks-still-dont-work" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">has proven to not be effective</a> and the US has eliminated, is still in effect in Honduras. We are still required to wear a mask to enter the immigration offices when flying back to Honduras, but that is not required on the aircraft you just arrived in. There are many arbitrary, illogical COVID-19 rules. There is no sign when will the madness will stop.</p>



<blockquote class="wp-block-quote is-style-plain is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow">
<p>We have lost our minds in one of the most corrupt and uneducated countries.</p>
</blockquote>



<p>In no way, shape, or form I am minimizing the deadliness of this COVID disease. I’ve lost loved ones and dear friends to this virus/pandemic. What I am suggesting is that we have lost our minds in one of the most corrupt and uneducated countries in the world. A government of a county such as ours cannot decide what is best for each and every citizen.</p>



<p>Who decides what mandates to keep, and which aren’t valid. We live in a country where government cannot maintain stock of medication in our public hospitals or pay the hardworking medical staff. Yet we are told the authorities somehow know what the best for your personal health is.</p>



<p>With ever increasing knowledge of the side effects and long-term consequences of the vaccine against COVID-19, some US states officials are finally asking tough questions of Pfizer and Moderna. Until even now the rushing of the vaccine rollout was never questioned.</p>



<p>Many countries were sold the COVID vaccines with the caveat that they could not ever under any circumstances sue the manufacturer. Billions of <a href="https://www.cnbc.com/2022/03/03/covid-pfizer-moderna-project-51-billion-in-combined-vaccine-sales-this-year.html" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">dollars went into Big Pharma</a> that has now zero liability for any future lawsuits for side effects.</p>



<p>We still don’t know what exactly is in this shot we have all been coerced to receive in this country or be forced out from our workplaces. No Honduran government employee could refuse this COVID vaccine. Even now your child cannot <a href="https://www.npr.org/2021/11/19/1056568867/should-schools-mandate-covid-vaccine-for-children" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">attend school without it</a>. The unvaxed cannot fly on local flights and, at least in theory, are not able to receive hospital attention. This madness has no end in sight.</p>

<h3 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>While Island’s Herd Immunity from the Wuhan Virus was Likely Achieved in late 2020, Islanders Continue to Live in Fear and Abandonment of Freedoms</strong></h3>

	I</span>n 2021 more people died from traffic accidents on the newly paved Roatan roads than from the Wuhan virus. According to the inflated Honduran government figure there were four “with COVID” deaths in Bay Islands in the five months of 2021. While no one is even considering closing down these roads, the islanders have grown accustomed to life in constant fear of “the virus” and without their freedoms.</p>



<blockquote class="wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow"><p>Two Roatan medical professionals now believe that the island has reached herd immunity. </p></blockquote>



<p>The inflated Honduran <a rel="noreferrer noopener" href="https://covid19honduras.org/" target="_blank">government statistics</a> show that since the imposed lockdown in the Bay Islands in March 2020, in <strong>455 days, 47 people died of the Wuhan virus. </strong>Major indicators and two Roatan medical professionals now believe that the island has reached herd immunity from the Wuhan virus sometime in December 2020, six months after it was brought to the island from the mainland by 11 <a rel="noreferrer noopener" href="https://payamag.com/2020/05/27/exhausted-before-the-fight-1/" target="_blank">Honduran National Police officers</a>. Yet, since no one has dared to announce the herd immunity, Bay Islanders continue to follow curfew, wear masks, keep their children away from schools and stay away from churches. This behavior in psychology is called “<a rel="noreferrer noopener" href="https://www.thehindu.com/opinion/op-ed/what-is-the-lemming-effect-in-psycology/article22545146.ece" target="_blank">the lemming effect</a>.” </p>



<p>There are several strong indications that like H1N1 of 2010, the Wuhan flue spreads across the tight knit, small island communities within several months. As fall of 2020 several Bay Islands employers reported that almost all of their staff tested positive for the Wuhan virus antibodies. <em>“I think we are heading for <a href="https://payamag.com/2020/10/30/heading-for-herd-immunity/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">herd immunity</a>,”</em> said in October 2020 Kenny McNab, owner of Bay Islands Petroleum (BIP) and Utila Dream. <em>“Just about everyone in the office had it.”</em> </p>



<p>Another indicator of achieved herd immunity is the minuscule number of positive tests received in clinics testing travelers departing Roatan for US. Since February 2021 “<a rel="noreferrer noopener" href="https://www.facebook.com/IslandMedClinic" target="_blank">Island Med</a>” clinic in Coxen Hole has administered several thousand of Wuhan virus antigen tests required for people heading out to USA. “Eleven of these tests came out positive. Two of those were false positives,” says Dr. Angel Banegas, owner of Island Med. The positive cases were minuscule &#8211; less 0.1% of the tested travelers.</p>



<blockquote class="wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow"><p> Minuscule number of positive tests received in clinics testing travelers departing Roatan for US.</p></blockquote>



<p>Still another indicator of herd immunity to Wuhan virus was the closing of the French Harbour COVID center due to the lack of sick. The long forgotten medical goal from year ago of “flattening the curve” to avoid overwhelming medical facilities has not only been achieved but it flat-lined. The facility opened doors on August 15, and by December 15 nature run its course and COVID center was closed.</p>



<p>Most people, <a href="https://www.cnbc.com/2020/10/08/more-than-80percent-of-people-with-coronavirus-had-no-symptoms-uk-study.html" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">86% in fact</a>, that are exposed to the Wuhan virus never really have any symptoms. <em>“We have sun with vitamin D, we are at sea level so we have plenty of oxygen,”</em> says Dr. Banegas.<em> “I’ve never seen a construction worker, or a fisherman fall sick with COVID.” </em></p>



<blockquote class="wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow"><p>There is plenty of money to be made in the COVID reshuffle, on the expensive vaccines, and bio-security contracts.  </p></blockquote>



<p>The knowledge and information about the Wuhan virus testing and treatment coming from private clinics and hospitals thought Honduras has been ignored by government statistics. <em>“No one speaks of COVID tests done in the private clinics,” </em>says Dr. Banegas. The government has applied a consistent policy of ignoring private health providers during the Wuhan flue crisis. No government officials had proclaimed the increasingly obvious good news, in part because there is plenty of money to be made in the COVID reshuffle, on the expensive vaccines, and bio-security contracts.  </p>



<p>The fact that Wuhan virus is a treatable virus and <em>“One of the great difference was handing out 10,000 maiz packs,”</em> said Peggy Stanges, founder of Clinica Esperanza in Sandy Bay who also believes herd immunity was also achieved sometime in 2020. Maiz helped hundreds of lives. <em>“It cost 50 dollars for a test and we could treat people for 5 dollars,”</em> said Stranges.<em> “That doesn’t make sense.”</em> Actually, it makes plenty of sense.</p>



<p>There are plenty of people making money on COVID tests that cost $50-$300 on the island. There will be money being made on “bio security” enforcement and experimental vaccines at<a rel="noreferrer noopener" href="https://observer.com/2020/11/covid19-vaccine-price-pfizer-moderna-astrazeneca-oxford/" target="_blank"> $30-$50</a> courtesy of WHO or Honduran government and no chance of recourse once you suffer adverse effects of the <a href="https://www.cnbc.com/2020/12/16/covid-vaccine-side-effects-compensation-lawsuit.html" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">experimental drugs</a>. </p>



<p>Now that Bay Islands have achieved natural, side effects free and cost free immunity from the Wuhan virus, the department is receiving experimental vaccines and experimental gene therapies to the tune of $50 a pop. The corporations manufacturing them developed them in nine months and skipped the animal trials, vaccination challenge and phase III of human trials. The experimental vaccines went into circulation because of Emergency Use Authorization.</p>



<p>There are now hundreds of thousands of people in the <a href="https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/vaccines/safety/adverse-events.html" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">US that have been injured</a> by these experimental injections and as of May 24, US Center for Disease Control has registered voluntarily reporting of  4,863 deaths “side effect” due to experimental COVID vaccines. The voluntary nature of the gathering these statistics greatly under counts the actual death count after the administered. The effect of these injections on infertility, birth defects or Alzheimer will not be known for years.</p>
