Iceland is one of the most vaccinated countries in the world.
Almost 80% of every man, woman and child in the country has been fully vaccinated.
67% of the population has had booster doses.
That is more than Israel and almost three times the percentage in the United States.
How are the "safe and effective" Covid vaccines doing in controlling the pandemic in Iceland?
Confirmed cases per capita in Iceland right now are 28 times the level of the United States.
They are almost three times higher than they were when cases peaked in the United States in mid-January.
Denmark has fully vaccinated a higher percentage of its population than Iceland---82%
It has just seen a higher level of confirmed cases cases per capita than Iceland.
Confronted with this data. the political narrative is that "nobody ever said that the vaccines would prevent anyone from getting Covid".
They say that the vaccines were only intended to prevent severe disease.
Of course, anyone who has paid attention to the facts knows that none of this is true.
The vaccines were authorized under the representation that they did prevent Covid.
So how are they doing in Denmark in keeping people out of the hospital with severe disease?
Not very well.
How did that happen with all those vaccine doses in Iceland and Denmark?
I thought they were HIGHLY EFFECTIVE.
Each country is now seeing more hospital admissions per capita than the United States.
Denmark recently peaked with more hospital admissions per capital than the United States had at its peak this Winter.
What are Iceland and Denmark doing now to control the pandemic?
Increased masking?
Lockdowns?
Promoting more vaccinations?
Vaccine passports?
None of the above. They are throwing in the towel and scrapping all Covid restrictions.
Denmark became the first country in Europe to end most Covid restrictions at the beginning of this month.

Denmark has lifted all Covid-19 restrictions within the country, with coronavirus no longer considered a “socially critical sickness,” according to the government.
This means that an indoor mask mandate, the use of a “Covid pass” for bars, restaurants and other indoor venues,
Iceland is following suit on Friday.
What is even more remarkable about the Iceland announcement is that they admit that the vaccines are not enough (pretty obvious looking at the data) and that the main route out is that "as many people possible need to be infected with the virus".
That seems to be an admission that natural immunity is superior to the vaccines.
Who would have thought that?
Iceland will lift all remaining COVID-19 restrictions on Friday, including a 200-person indoor gathering limit and restricted opening hours for bars, the Ministry of Health said on Wednesday.
"Widespread societal resistance to COVID-19 is the main route out of the epidemic," the ministry said in a statement, citing infectious disease authorities.
"To achieve this, as many people as possible need to be infected with the virus as the vaccines are not enough, even though they provide good protection against serious illness," it added.
Of course, the CDC in the United States has spent over a year telling us that natural immunity is not as a good as vaccine immunity.
However, it should be clear to everyone by now that the immunity conferred by the Covid vaccines is not very broad or long lasting.
We also found out this week that the CDC has been withholding large volumes of data on breakthrough infections, hospitalizations and the effectiveness of the boosters because of fear that it might be misrepresented.

In other words, the data undoubtedly does not support the narrative.
The CDC is the principal federal agency charged with overseeing public health during the Covid pandemic. It is supposed to be working for the public.
It is their duty to provide the public with data and information in order for the citizenry to make decisions about protecting their health with the proper informed consent. That is not possible if the CDC is only interested in providing slanted and sparse data intended to protect the rear ends of public health bureaucrats and politicians
If we are to believe the CDC, what we are seeing in Iceland and Denmark should be impossible due to the "safe and effective" vaccines.
How inconvenient that the data is available in these countries for all to see.
How inconvenient that the public health experts in other countries are now following a path that we have been told before was irresponsible and reckless. Vaccinations were the only path forward.
Does anyone remember when Dr. Scott Atlas was a White House advisor for President Trump in the summer of 2020 and challenged Dr. Fauci. Dr. Birx and the CDC in arguing that the lockdowns, school closures and all the rest were doing more harm than good?

How inconvenient that there were experts who had other strategies that were condemned, censored and marginalized because those views did not agree with the narrative.
Which views look better now?
Ignore what is going on in Iceland and Denmark.
Ignore the views of Dr. Scott Atlas and the signatories of the Great Barrington Declaration.
That is what the CDC wants you to do.
They don't even trust you to see the real data they have for fear it will be "misrepresented".
My advice is that more than two years into this you are much more likely to figure out the real truth and what is best for you by ignoring the CDC.
