The Situation In Germany

Just a thought. Is it only Adamics getting cancer? Outside of those too close to some high radiation event/facility, is this a marker?

If you see the profile of those affected, that is not the impression or conclusion you draw. Each person is a unique case: the law of three.

Careful with pattern recognition run amok and all that.

If the rising cancer cases are causally related to the jabs, then I would think the rise in cases would more likely be among pre-Adamics because of theoretically higher jab uptake.

But there's so many potential confounding factors that this speculation may be meaningless.

What got you thinking the rate was higher in Adamics?

In Germany the statistics only go till the year 2023. Since it is too complicated and time consuming checking and getting the data. And they released recently the report for 2021 till 2023. At least so it is said. Nowadays with AI they could be much quicker, though I'm thinking, they don't like to show the real numbers. But who knows.

As far as I checked, the data gets collected by the Robert Koch Institut and according to this new paper the incidence of cancer cases are slowly declining. Though I don't know how they cleaned their data. And had a minor peak in about 2021/2022.

Well, if they included data from the various lockdown periods up until 2023, thorough patient evaluations were not carried out back then as they used to in the past. Screening programmes may have continued at a national level though. This may explain their data to some extent.

Germany and France have a lower mortality rate, relatively speaking. Their medical standards are excellent. Their systems got strained after the COVID era, but everyone is working at full capacity, though.

See what they're spending their money in 2015 vs 2025: cancer, autoimmune diseases and diabetes. It would probably be very similar to France.

Somewhat related to Germany but Europe in general , Martina Weimert CEO of EPI ( European Payments Initiative , which includes Deutsche Bank ) .

Quote :

“We are highly dependent on international [payment] solutions,” said Martina Weimert, chief executive of the European Payments Initiative (EPI), a consortium of 16 European banks and financial services companies.

“Yes, we have nice national assets like domestic [payment] card schemes . . . but we don’t have anything cross-border.

“If we say independence is so crucial and we all know it’s a timing issue . . . we need action urgently,’’ she said.

Guess this somewhat is a reaction and reflection that somewhat indicates the move east ? vis a vis what recent transcripts state regarding "The Russian regime" and some form of rapprochement due to energy needs that the Germany Government has been destroying ?

I've been watching relatively closely the gas storage situation in Germany for several months. Last year in May, the new government declared that the gas storage should only be filled up to 80% until the end of November, instead of 90%. This is 10% less than in the last few years. Last year in April, the gas storage already reached about 28% and was already a record low. Right now the German capacity is about 35%, and there are still two more months to heat, since officially the winter goes until the end of March/ April, depending on the weather.

…

Today we have the 15th of February:

The current storage of the total official gas chambers is about 24,40% filled (it always lags about two days behind). As I wrote above, the pressure and the different chambers (pore storage and cushion gas) can become a problem at a certain percentage, plus the actual demand. That means, in a high demand (too cold), i.e. the industry cannot be delivered with that much gas as it is needed. Markus Schall wrote an extensive article about the gas chambers in Germany, and that it is a non-linear effect. That means it still can work with a storage below 20%.

The problem I, personally, see at this moment:

On the 8th of March are state elections in one of the (former) engines of Germany, Baden-Wuerttemberg (Mercedes, Daimler-Truck, Bosch, Porsche (VW group), SAP, and some chemical plants). Chancellor Merz seems to avoid the topic until the elections, since the Greens are still running the state, though Kretschmann won't apply anymore. CDU is leading in current polls, followed by the Greens and the AfD. And it was the Greens under Habeck who reduced the total gas chamber storage last May. Though I was wrong that it was already the new government. Interestingly enough, some commentators on mainstream media wish the Greens and Habeck back.

Furthermore, the car industry still suffers, and so do its suppliers. Mercedes suffered about another 5 billion in net profit. In 2023: About 14 billion net profit; in 2024, 10 billion; and in 2025, about 5 billion. And VW surprised with another 6 billion of a more or less sudden net profit (cash flow), with which they like to pay the managers their bonuses. And it should not be forgotten that VW already sent 2025 11.000 workers home under a voluntary severance program (older workers, for example), and VW transformed a former fabric in Dresden into a development thingy. Of course, the trade union isn't happy about it.

It is interesting to see that the pressure of the gas chambers is falling and the pressure and heat of the industry and politics are rising. Again, let's wait and see.
