2023-02-15 Antibiotics are being inappropriately prescribed for COVID, increasing the threat of antimicrobial resistance – research Antibiotics are drugs designed to treat infections caused by bacteria (for example, skin infections). They don’t work on infections caused by other microbes such as viruses (including COVID and flu) or fungi (for example, thrush). https://theconversation.com/antibiotics-are-being-inappropriately-prescribed-for-covid-increasing-the-threat-of-antimicrobial-resistance-research-199480
2023-02-15 GT Investigates: Big Pharma Greed, Lobbying, Failed Governance and Economic Woes Lead to U.S. Drug Crisis America’s drug abuse problem — a long-existing thorn in the side of U.S. society — has grown more serious in recent years in the country along with an increasing number of young people turning to drugs due to dwindling economic opportunities and the apparent death of the so-called “American Dream,” analysts said.
The drug problem in the U.S. is caused by an interplay among economic interests, lobby groups, as well as social and cultural factors, an expert in international relations at Fudan University told the Global Times. While the U.S. federal and state governments keep making pledges to tackle the drug problem, they have failed to take substantive measures due to the lobbying activities of various interest groups, observers said.
Reports showed that large pharmaceutical companies in the U.S. devote large sums of money to peddle narratives such as “opioids are harmless” and push forward drug legalization as well as the promotion of drug sales and prescription of drugs. The lawmakers who receive money from them actively promote bills that benefit Big Pharma.

2023-02-15 Federal Bill Introduced to Drop COVID Vaccine Policies for Foreign Travel U.S. Senator Roger Marshall has helped introduce a bill that would drop policies that require foreign travelers to provide proof of a COVID-19 vaccine when they enter the U.S. On Wednesday, Feb. 15, U.S. Senator Roger Marshall (R-Kan.) says he joined Sens. Kevin Cramer (R-N.D.), Mike Lee (R-Utah) and Mike Braun (R-Ind.) to introduce the Travel Freedom Act which would repeal federal policies that require international travelers to show proof of a COVID-19 vaccine. As a result of these policies, Marshall said the flow of goods between the U.S. and Canada has significantly slowed and foreign visitors are barred from visiting American family members, among other issues. https://www.wibw.com/2023/02/15/federal-bill-introduced-drop-covid-19-vaccine-policies-foreign-travel/

2023-02-14 North Dakota House Passes Several COVID Vaccine Bills Several bills dealing with COVID-19 vaccinations passed the North Dakota House of Representatives on Tuesday and moved to the Senate.
House Bill 1200, introduced by Rep. Jeff Hoverson, R-Minot, passed in a 78-13 vote. The bill would ban colleges and universities from requiring or promoting COVID-19 shots for students, specifically exclude COVID-19 vaccines from the state’s school immunization requirements and extend the state’s COVID-19 “vaccine passport” ban for another two years.
House Bill 1207, brought by Rep. Dick Anderson, R-Willow City, passed 86-5. The bill would require Health and Human Services to publish online data of “vaccine adverse events.” The department may use the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System data. Hoverson’s House Bill 1502 passed 87-4. The bill would prohibit hospitals from denying care to a patient based on his or her COVID-19 vaccination status. https://bismarcktribune.com/news/state-and-regional/govt-and-politics/north-dakota-house-passes-several-covid-19-vaccine-bills/article_7134449e-abb4-11ed-9893-5754d70c22b2.html

2023-02-14 NYC Teachers Who Refused COVID Vaccine Slapped With ‘Scarlet Letter’ in Personnel Files: Lawyer Fired city teachers and other school employees who refused to get the COVID-19 vaccine were blacklisted with a “scarlet letter” in their personnel files by Mayor Eric Adams’ administration — hindering their ability to find work elsewhere, says the lawyer repping a slew of them.
The city Department of Education put a special “code” indicating wrongdoing in the files of the terminated workers, most of whom declined to get the vaccine because of religious beliefs, said their lawyer, John Bursch. “Loosely speaking, it is like a scarlet letter,” Bursch told The Post on Tuesday. “The employee’s personnel file shows a [generic] problem code that could just as easily be [for] committing a crime as declining to take a vaccine for religious reasons. In some instances, when plaintiffs tried to obtain employment elsewhere, they were told that they were red-flagged because of the problem code.” https://nypost.com/2023/02/14/nyc-teachers-who-refused-covid-vaccine-slapped-with-scarlet-letter-in-personnel-files-lawyer/

2023-02-13 House GOP Demands Info From Fauci, Other Officials on COVID Origins House Republicans are officially relaunching their investigation into the origins of the COVID-19 pandemic by calling for testimony and information from Anthony Fauci and other current and former Biden administration officials. The 12-member coronavirus response subcommittee is charged with examining the origins of the pandemic, including federal funding of what’s known as gain-of-function research, or research that enhances a virus’s ability to cause an infection in order to predict pandemics and develop cures.
The examination of gain-of-function research is central to the claim the virus originated from a lab in Wuhan, China, potentially backed by funding from the U.S. government. Last year, Republicans on the House Foreign Affairs Committee released a report concluding the pandemic began with a virus that escaped from the Wuhan lab. Aside from Fauci’s testimony, the lawmakers are seeking phone records, official calendars and other communications from the National Institutes of Health and the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) regarding the Wuhan Institute of Virology and any federal grants to EcoHealth Alliance. https://thehill.com/policy/healthcare/3856317-house-gop-demands-info-from-fauci-other-officials-on-covid-19-origins/
2023-02-13 U.S. Government to Buy 1.5 Million More Novavax COVID Vaccine Doses The U.S. government has agreed to buy 1.5 million more doses of Novavax Inc.(NVAX.O) COVID-19 vaccine, the company said on Monday, adding that the modified agreement includes funds for the development of an updated vaccine by fall this year. Sales of the company’s vaccine have been hurt by a global supply glut and waning demand, with Novavax cutting its full-year revenue forecast for the shots twice last year. The protein-based vaccine was expected to convince those skeptical of the new mRNA-based vaccines against the virus from rivals such as Pfizer Inc. (PFE.N) and Moderna (MRNA.O). https://www.reuters.com/world/us/us-government-buy-15-mln-more-novavax-covid-vaccine-doses-2023-02-13/
2023-02-13 Pandemic Youth Mental Health Toll Unprecedented, Data Show The pandemic took a harsh toll on U.S. teen girls’ mental health, with almost 60% reporting feelings of persistent sadness or hopelessness, according to a government survey released Monday that bolsters earlier data.
Sexual violence, suicidal thoughts, suicidal behavior and other mental health woes affected many teens regardless of race or ethnicity, but girls and LGBTQ youth fared the worst on most measures, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention report. More than 17,000 U.S. high school students were surveyed in class in the fall of 2021. In 30 years of collecting similar data, “we’ve never seen this kind of devastating, consistent findings,” said Kathleen Ethier, director of CDC’s adolescent and school health division. “There’s no question young people are telling us they are in crisis. The data really call on us to act.” https://apnews.com/article/education-health-pandemics-teens-cd01cd672539d6a3dbada46bfa47203a

Why it matters: It’s expected to be a showdown across the spectrum of views on vaccine safety and efficacy, from attempting to undermine public faith in them to trying to bolster confidence. The details: The Oversight Select Subcommittee on the Coronavirus Pandemic has been given a broad writ to investigate a wide array of topics from the virus’ origins to federal COVID restrictions to the pandemic’s economic impact. https://www.axios.com/2023/02/14/republicans-investigation-covid-vaccine

2023-02-12 NYC Mayor Says COVID Mandates May Need to Return, Blasts People Who Say ‘I Want to Do Whatever I Want’ New York City Mayor Eric Adams, during an interview with Caribbean Power Jam Radio’s “The Reset Show,” defended the rescinding of a COVID vaccine mandate for city workers and that there may be a time when mandates will be in place again. Adams defended his decision to rescind the vaccine mandate because COVID was becoming normalized, adding that when employees said, “I want to do whatever I want,” it was not right.
Adams announced on Feb. 6 that the city would make COVID vaccines optional for current and prospective city workers, effective Feb. 10. The announcement came as more than 96% of city workers were fully vaccinated against coronavirus. Despite the reversal, the approximately 1,780 former city workers who were terminated for not complying with the COVID-19 vaccine mandates in the past will not automatically get their jobs back but can reapply for positions in their former agencies. https://www.foxnews.com/politics/nyc-mayor-covid-mandates-return-blasts-people-i-want-do-whatever-i-want
2023-02-12 CT Supreme Court Case to Test Limits of Hospital Immunity Cheryl Mills, a Colchester resident with a serious heart condition, had been in Hartford Hospital for five days when she died on the bathroom floor of her room in March 2020. For four days, the 63-year-old had been waiting for the result of a COVID test so she could be cleared to enter the hospital’s special cardiac treatment area. The negative test result came through at 7:40 p.m. on March 24.
Her estate sued the hospital, but an executive order issued by Gov. Ned Lamont at the beginning of the pandemic granted hospitals and nursing homes legal immunity as they worked through the early days of the COVID pandemic. Now, the circumstances of Mills’ case have become the center of a state Supreme Court legal battle over how far that immunity can be extended, and other cases involving Connecticut nursing homes could be affected by the outcome. https://ctmirror.org/2023/02/12/ct-supreme-court-lawsuit-hospital-immunity-wrongful-death-hartford-health/
2023-02-11 Minnesotans Claiming COVID Vaccine Injuries Are Left in Limbo The end of the COVID-19 emergency response in the United States might be a milestone this spring, but for St. Paul’s Suzanna Newell, it will feel like the nation is moving on without her. The 51-year-old mother and former bank executive believes a COVID vaccine reaction caused her disabling health problems, which have sent her across the country in search of treatments. She filed a claim with a federal program that compensates people for rare vaccine-related injuries, but that was 11 months ago.
Newell isn’t alone in her struggle to establish a vaccine connection to her disabilities and receive help with a mountain of medical bills. She learned that as volunteer treasurer of React19, an organization that has raised $700,000 to treat vaccine-related injuries. “The sad reality is if something goes wrong, there is no safety net for you,” said Brianne Dressen, a former Utah school teacher who co-founded React19 and suffered health problems after her COVID vaccination in a clinical trial.
The federal Countermeasures Injury Compensation Program (CICP) has received 11,196 claims related to COVID, including 8,447 related to vaccines. Only 543 have been resolved. No payouts have been made, though 19 claims have been declared eligible. https://www.startribune.com/minnesotans-claiming-covid-19-vaccine-injuries-are-left-in-limbo/600250940/
