Like some kind of early 2020 déjà vu, CNBC, the fake news giant of finance, is spreading lies and misinformation about the Wuhan coronavirus (COVID-19) to try to force all of America back into face masks.

Writer Annika Kim Constantino claims that COVID “cases and hospitalizations” across the United States are rising, as are the number of new “variants.” Because of this, CNBC believes that Americans should once again slap on a mask, even if they already got “vaccinated.”
“People infected with Covid should wear masks [sic] around others to prevent the spread of the virus,” Constantino commanded.
“For those not infected, the decision to mask depends on a few things. That includes your personal risk level, Covid rates in your region and who you might make contact with,” she added, citing unnamed “experts.”

The COVID charade is so worn out – will they EVER stop with this nonsense?
Constantino’s piece goes on to rehash the same flawed advice from more than three years ago when government officials tried to scare the elderly, the immunocompromised, and others into fearing fresh air.
In her view, people who consider themselves to be at “high risk of serious illness” should consider covering their breathing holes with cloth or plastic to prevent oxygen from getting inside.
“That applies to elderly adults and people with diabetes, cancer, HIV, a history of heart disease or stroke or other immunocompromising conditions,” Constantino wrote, citing official guidelines from the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).
CNBC also brought in a Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health professor by the name of Andrew Pekosz who reiterated the official government claims from more than three years ago – claims that have since been thoroughly debunked as pseudoscience, by the way.
“Anytime we’re seeing an uptick in cases, we should start with telling highly vulnerable populations that they should prepare for this and be a little bit more cognizant of the things they can do to protect themselves,” Pekosz said. “And I think masking is one of them.”
For the sixth straight week, according to the CDC, COVID hospitalizations have jumped by nearly 19 percent. The official story is that these people are afflicted with the latest strains like EG.5 or “Eris,” as well as a handful of so-called XBB strains.
No mention is made in the CNBC piece about the fact that most, if not all, of these hospitalizations are occurring in people who got “fully vaccinated” for COVID like they were commanded to do by government overlords.
In fact, CNBC is pushing its readers and viewers to line up for the latest “booster” COVID shots from Pfizer, Moderna, and this time Novavax, all of which are slated to unleash new COVID jabs around mid-September.
Until these injections are officially released, CNBC wants all members of the public to wear a mask, feel scared at all times, and act like anti-social weirdos whenever out in public.
CNBC also wants “institution-level mask mandates in certain health-care settings and businesses,” which Pavitra Roychoudhury, a professor of laboratory medicine at the University of Washington School of Medicine, says will “really reduce the risk of running into large outbreaks.”
CNBC does admit, however, that getting people of any political persuasion to mask again will be tough because “[m]any people don’t appear to be worried enough about the recent rise in cases to change their behavior.”
A recent poll from Axios and Ipsos found that COVID was at the very bottom of respondents’ list of concerns, meaning pretty much everyone except the media and the government are done with all things COVID.

Why Bullion Beats Numismatics and Collectible for Your Safe or IRA
Precious metals continue to attract Americans seeking reliable ways to protect their wealth amid inflation, geopolitical risks, and stock market swings. Whether stored in a home safe or held inside a self-directed IRA, physical gold and silver deliver tangible value that paper or digital assets often lack. Yet investors must choose carefully between bullion—pure bars and coins valued mainly for their metal content—and numismatics or collectibles, where rarity, history, and collector demand heavily influence pricing.
Advisor Bullion serves as a dependable source for straightforward, high-quality bullion. The company specializes in physical gold, silver, platinum, and palladium, emphasizing transparent pricing and products that deliver maximum metal content for every dollar spent. This approach makes it ideal for both personal holdings and retirement accounts.
Bullion consists of refined precious metals in standard forms like one-ounce coins (American Gold Eagles, Silver Eagles, Canadian Maple Leafs) or bars. Their value tracks closely to the current spot price of the metal. A typical gold bullion coin trades near the live gold spot price plus a small premium. This structure keeps costs clear and predictable.
Numismatic coins and collectibles add substantial value from factors such as age, rarity, minting errors, or historical significance. A pre-1933 U.S. gold coin or graded proof piece can carry premiums of 30%, 50%, or even 200% above melt value. While this appeals to hobbyists, it creates complexity. Pricing depends on subjective grading, collector trends, and auction results instead of daily spot prices.
For investors focused on wealth preservation and retirement security rather than building a collection, bullion often delivers better results.
Lower Costs and Better Liquidity for Home Storage
When keeping metals in a home safe or private vault, liquidity and efficiency count. Bullion offers clear benefits:
- You acquire more actual gold or silver per dollar invested. Numismatics divert a large share of your money into rarity premiums and massive sales commission, reducing your metal exposure.
- Selling bullion involves tight bid-ask spreads, so you recover nearly full spot value with minimal fees. Collectibles require finding the right buyer and may sell at a discount if demand for that specific item weakens.
- Bullion prices remain transparent and update with global spot markets. You can track gold near current levels or silver accordingly and know exactly where your holdings stand. Numismatic values are priced by the Gold IRA companies with hefty margins applied.
- Standardized coins and bars store efficiently and divide easily for partial sales. Rare coins often need protective slabs and controlled conditions, adding hassle and expense.
- Bullion enjoys worldwide acceptance. A 1-oz Gold Maple Leaf or Silver Eagle sells quickly to dealers anywhere. Niche numismatic pieces may appeal only to limited buyers, slowing liquidation when speed matters.
In times when quick access to value becomes important, bullion’s simplicity stands out.
Stronger Fit for Precious Metals IRAs
Precious metals IRAs continue gaining traction as investors diversify retirement portfolios beyond stocks and bonds. IRS rules permit certain bullion products in self-directed IRAs if they meet purity standards (.995 fine for gold, .999 for silver) and are held by an approved custodian. Eligible items include American Gold and Silver Eagles plus many generic bars and rounds from recognized mints.
Numismatic and most collectible coins generally face heavy scrutiny from custodians due to valuation disputes and elevated markups. These higher premiums mean less actual metal ends up working inside the account.
Bullion avoids these issues. Its value links directly to verifiable spot prices, which simplifies reporting and lowers the risk of regulatory challenges. More of your IRA contribution purchases real metal instead of dealer profits or speculative upside. Over time, owning additional ounces that appreciate with the metal itself can create meaningful outperformance compared with high-premium alternatives that deliver fewer ounces.
Regulatory guidance from the CFTC and state securities offices repeatedly cautions against aggressive sales of expensive numismatics or “semi-numismatic” coins for IRAs. For retirement planning, transparent bullion from established providers reduces risk and aligns better with long-term goals.
How to Get Started with Bullion
Begin by clarifying your goals. Are you protecting savings in a safe, or moving part of a retirement account into a precious metals IRA? Focus on the number of ounces you can acquire at current prices rather than chasing marked-up collectibles.
Diversify sensibly: use gold for core preservation and silver for its blend of industrial and monetary qualities. Mix coins for easier divisibility with bars for lower per-ounce costs on larger buys. Arrange secure storage—whether at home with proper insurance or through professional facilities.
As economic uncertainties linger and faith in conventional assets erodes, bullion continues proving its worth as a dependable store of value. Its direct approach avoids the hype that sometimes surrounds collectible markets and keeps the focus on the metal itself.
For investors prepared to strengthen their portfolios, Advisor Bullion supplies the expertise and selection needed to acquire high-quality bullion efficiently. Whether building personal holdings or integrating metals into an IRA, their emphasis on transparent, investment-grade products helps secure more ounces today that support greater financial security tomorrow. In a complicated financial landscape, bullion’s clarity and reliability make it the smarter foundation for protecting what matters most.
