COVID-19 cases are surging again in California. Most in the state have been under strict lockdowns and stay-at-home orders for much of 2020, including the last couple of months. Now, Southern California has extended its lockdown protocols another three weeks in an effort to accomplish what the lockdowns have not been able to accomplish thus far.
They say the definition of insanity is to do the same thing over and over again and expect different results. It is blatantly clear that the lockdown protocols are not stopping or even slowing the spread of COVID-19 in the region. Meanwhile, other areas of similar population density that are not under lockdown orders are not experiencing the so-called surge. What’s happening?
Part of it is driven by a combination of fear and terrible policies. The average hospital ICU in California is at 89%-92% during flu season (now). But Governor Gavin Newsom instituted an 85% capacity trigger to initiate his draconian lockdowns. In other words, he set his trigger knowing it would be hit under normal circumstance, let alone with a pandemic. It was simply an excuse to initiate lockdowns regardless of their efficacy.
That efficacy is questionable. With just over 70% of COVID-19 transmissions occurring within a household, it seems idiotic to continue to force people to stay inside together. Combine that with the health benefits of UV-rays in sunshine as well as the immune-system boost we get from exercise and one has to wonder if the lockdowns are actually causing the coronavirus to spread more rapidly.
Despite calls from many (though not all) doctors to push the lockdowns, there is clear medical evidence that they have a more detrimental effect to health and possibly even a higher death toll than COVID-19 itself. Forced destitution and government dependency increases depression numbers, which are at all-time highs in the nation. Drug overdoses are at unprecedented levels. Suicide numbers are skyrocketing. Meanwhile, people like Newsom enjoy their lives of luxury, not worried that the peasants “below” them are suffering from their policies.
And in case anyone has forgotten, COVID-19 has a 99.96% recovery rate for people under the age of 50.
This all combines to drive outrage over the three-week extension of the lockdowns in some of the most populated areas of California. But this state is not alone. Across the nation, Democrat governors and a handful of Republicans have initiated similar lockdowns. They are helping to close businesses for the sake of a solution that clearly isn’t working. One does not have to be a doctor or an economist to see this is lunacy.
The sooner more people realize the lockdowns are about control and have little to no effect on COVID-19, the easier it will be to rally the people to oppose these senseless policies once and for all.
COVID-19 lockdowns are taking down an independent news outlet
Nobody said running a media site would be easy. We could use some help keeping this site afloat.
Colleagues have called me the worst fundraiser ever. My skills are squarely rooted on the journalistic side of running a news outlet. Paying the bills has never been my forte, but we’ve survived. We have ads on the site that help, but since the site’s inception this has been a labor of love that otherwise doesn’t bring in the level of revenue necessary to justify it.
When I left a nice, corporate career in 2017, I did so knowing I wouldn’t make nearly as much money. But what we do at NOQ Report to deliver the truth and fight the progressive mainstream media narrative that has plagued this nation is too important for me to sacrifice it for the sake of wealth. We know we’ll never make a ton of money this way, and we’re okay with that.

Things have become harder with the coronavirus lockdowns. Both ad money and donations that have kept us afloat for a while have dropped dramatically. We thought we could weather the storm, but the resurgence of lockdowns that mainstream media and Democrats are pushing has put our prospects in jeopardy. In short, we are now in desperate need of financial assistance.
The best way NOQ Report readers can help is to donate. Our Giving Fuel page makes it easy to donate one-time or monthly. Alternatively, you can donate through PayPal as well. We need approximately $17,300 to stay afloat through March when we hope the economy will be more open, but more would be wonderful and any amount that brings us closer to our goal is greatly appreciated.
The second way to help is to become a partner. We’ve strongly considered seeking angel investors in the past but because we were paying the bills, it didn’t seem necessary. Now, we’re struggling to pay the bills. This shouldn’t be the case as our traffic the last year has been going up dramatically. June, 2018, we had 11,678 visitors. A year later in June, 2019, we were up to 116,194. In June, 2020, we had 614,192. In November, 2020, we hit 1.2 million visitors.
We’re heading in the right direction and we believe we’re ready talk to patriotic investors who want to not only “get in on the action” but more importantly who want to help America hear the truth. Interested investors should contact me directly with the contact button above.
As the world spirals towards radical progressivism, the need for truthful journalism has never been greater. But in these times, we need as many conservative media voices as possible. Please help keep NOQ Report going.
American Conservative Movement
Join fellow patriots as we form a grassroots movement to advance the cause of conservatism. The coronavirus crisis has prompted many, even some conservatives, to promote authoritarianism. It’s understandable to some extent now, but it must not be allowed to embed itself in American life. We currently have 8000+ patriots with us in a very short time. If you are interested, please join us to receive updates.
