2021-12-21 Here’s Why mRNA COVID Vaccines Might Be Messing With Our Innate Immunity A pre-print study provides evidence to support what many prominent immunologists and vaccinologists have been saying for a long time — mRNA COVID vaccines are causing immune system dysregulation.

These COVID-19 mRNA injectable products are causing, yes, causing, immune system dysregulation — and not just in the context of the adaptive system, but in the context of the innate system. Not only that, but these findings provide very good reasons as to why we are seeing resurgences of latent viral infections and other adverse events reported in VAERS (and other adverse event reporting systems) and perhaps more importantly, why we should under no circumstances inject this crap into our children. Children are fine in the context of COVID-19 (for the 80 millionth time — this is well documented) and this is due to their extraordinary innate immune response systems. https://childrenshealthdefense.org/defender/jessica-rose-mrna-covid-vaccines-innate-immunity/

2021-12-22 85% of COVID Deaths Could Have Been Prevented … So What Happened? Of the people who died from COVID in the U.S., none received adequate and/or early enough treatment, Dr. Peter McCullough told podcast host Joe Rogan. If they had, at least 85% of them would have survived.

  • Of the COVID-19 deaths in the U.S., none received adequate and/or early-enough treatment. At least 85% of COVID deaths were preventable.
  • There are three components to SARS-CoV-2 infection: viral replication, cytokine storm and blood clotting, therefore necessitating a multidrug approach, and treatment must begin early to be effective.
  • Research published in 2006 showed hydroxychloroquine reduced viral replication of SARS-CoV-1 (the original SARS virus). It also has well-established anti-inflammatory properties. These two properties help explain its usefulness against COVID-19.
  • There were clear intentional efforts to prevent use of hydroxychloroquine against COVID-19, likely in an effort to make the COVID jabs appear necessary.
  • You cannot get COVID-19 twice — those with natural immunity have robust, long-lasting immunity. The Pfizer COVID shot, meanwhile, has been shown to have undetectable effectiveness 201 days after the second dose and Moderna’s effectiveness reaches zero around day 121.

2021-12-21 RFK, Jr.’s Bestselling Book Is ‘Mind-Blowing and Jaw-Dropping’ On a recent episode of “The Jimmy Dore Show,” Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. joined comedian and political commentator Jimmy Dore to discuss Kennedy’s bestselling book “The Real Anthony Fauci,” Fauci’s sordid history as a public health official, and how Fauci and Gates effectively control all biomedical research.

“I wrote the book because so many Americans were looking at Tony Fauci as this kind of savior … the man on the white horse, or in the white lab coat, that would ride us out of this coronavirus crises but I knew from the beginning … that he does not do public health and has not done public health since the 1980’s.

“Fauci transformed his agency into an incubator for pharmaceutical products. Fauci is the architect of agency capture not just at his National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases or the National Institutes of Health but across all of Health and Human Services. “They promote pharmaceutical products and the profiteering of the pharmaceutical industry, they promote their own personal power, and [Fauci] is the leader of that pack.” Instead of fulfilling his duty to the American people and finding the causes for chronic diseases and illnesses, Fauci oversaw the U.S. decline from one of the healthiest nations in the world to one of the most unhealthy, Kennedy said.

2021-12-22 Biden Pick for FDA Chief Holds Millions in Big Pharma Investments Dr. Robert Califf, President Biden’s pick to lead the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, made millions as a consultant for more than a dozen pharmaceutical corporations and holds millions more in Big Pharma investments. https://childrenshealthdefense.org/defender/biden-robert-califf-fda-big-pharma-investments/?

2021-12-22 Pfizer Vaccine Clinical Trials Poorly Designed From the Start, Analysis Shows The Canadian COVID Care Alliance assembled a presentation that demonstrates how Pfizer’s purported randomized placebo-controlled, double-blinded study veered away from methodologies that would have definitively answered questions about the vaccine’s safety and efficacy.

In this concise slide deck with an explanatory video, CCCA powerfully summarized why Pfizer’s trial was not designed to adequately demonstrate its product’s safety and efficacy. Here are a few key points from the CCCA presentation:

  • Initial data demonstrated a high relative risk reduction of infection yet this amounted to an absolute risk reduction of only 0.84%. It is the absolute risk reduction that determines the risk-benefit ratio required to make informed decisions around inoculation.
  • Early unblinding: Several months before publishing six-month observational results Pfizer opted to offer its product to those participants who received the placebo. By eliminating nearly all participants in the placebo wing Pfizer effectively closed the curtain on its experiment because long-term comparisons can no longer be made.
  • All-cause mortality and morbidity, the only sensible outcomes to use in determining efficacy and risk, were not considered. Indeed, all-cause mortality was higher in the vaccinated group after six months.
  • Severe adverse events outnumbered cases of severe COVID prevented after six months of observation.
  • Trial participants were not reflective of the most vulnerable members of our population — more than 50% of people dying from COVID are 75 years of age or older. This age group made up only 4.4% of trial participants. Also, 95% of those who have died from COVID had one or more comorbidities. Nearly 80% of trial participants had none.
  • Not every trial participant was tested for COVID. Asymptomatic or paucisymptomatic (presenting few symptoms) cases were missed.

2021-12-22 U.S. Approves First Injury Claim for COVID Countermeasure, as Backlog Grows to 4,000+ Claims The U.S. government program that processes claims for COVID vaccine- and countermeasures-related injuries, the Countermeasures Injury Compensation Program, will issue compensation for its first claim. It’s unknown if the claim is related to a vaccine or some other medication or device related to the diagnosis or treatment of the virus.

According to the Countermeasures Injury Compensation Program (CICP) website, “[o]ne COVID-19 claim has been determined eligible for compensation and is pending a review of eligible expenses.” CICP did not reveal the terms of the compensation. Confirmation of the claim comes almost a year after distribution of the vaccines began and after 965,843 reports of adverse events following COVID vaccines were submitted to the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (as of Dec. 10). https://childrenshealthdefense.org/defender/injury-covid-countermeasure-backlog-grows/

2021-12-22 Pfizer, FDA Dodge Media Questions About Pfizer Comirnaty Vaccine Two media outlets last week requested, but failed to obtain, clarity from Pfizer on whether its fully licensed Comirnaty COVID vaccine is available in the U.S. Reporting by The Ohio Star and National File highlighted the ongoing debate over whether the vaccine can legally be mandated, and whether Pfizer can be held liable for injuries related to the vaccine. The Star reported that despite asking multiple times whether the Comirnaty vaccine is in use, Pfizer would not answer the question. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in August granted full approval, or Biological License Application Approval (BLA) — for the Comirnaty vaccine for individuals age 16 and older. The approval, granted without a formal advisory committee meeting or public comments, prompted a number of questions including:

  1. What, if any, differences exist between the formulations used in the fully licensed Comirnaty vaccine and the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine being distributed under Emergency Use Authorization (EUA).
  2. If/when the fully licensed vaccine would be available in the U.S.

Pfizer’s claim that the two vaccines can “be used interchangeably” is inconsistent with FDA statements, The Star said, citing an FDA Q&A page that states the two vaccines are “legally distinct.” The FDA “did not directly address” The Star’s initial question about the specific difference between Comirnaty and the EUA vaccine, or why Pfizer is not shipping Comirnaty if the formulas are “interchangeable.”

Misrepresentations by media and public officials — like those of the Louisville Courier-Journal and Ohio attorney general claiming the Pfizer vaccines in use in the U.S. are FDA-approved — coupled with the FDA’s own ambiguous documents and public statements have given rise to public confusion and legal questions.

2021-12-22 ‘This Week’ With Mary + Polly: ‘We Live in a World of Propaganda and Censorship’ + More

  • Documents reviewed by Reuters reveal tens of millions of migrants may be denied COVID vaccines from Gavi, the Vaccine Alliance because some major manufacturers are worried about legal risks from harmful side effects. “It’s fascinating,” said Mary.
  • Whiplash on U.S. vaccine mandates is leaving companies confused. What does fully vaccinated really mean? “Confused as everyone is,” said Mary.
  • CHD is calling on scientists, citizens and medical experts to help stop President Biden’s COVID vaccine mandates for employees, federal contractors and healthcare workers by posting comments on three federal rulemaking websites.
  • COVID vaccines are “irreversible and potentially permanently damaging,” said Dr. Robert Malone, who explained why 16,000 physicians and medical scientists around the world signed a declaration publicly declaring healthy children should not be vaccinated for COVID-19. “A really good article to share,” said Polly.
  • Experts say babies and toddlers could be eligible for COVID vaccines by early 2022. “That’s ridiculous,” said Polly.
  • On the same day the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) said it was aware of eight cases of heart inflammation in 5- to 11-year-olds vaccinated with Pfizer’s COVID vaccine, Pfizer and BioNTech announced they would seek full approval for their Comirnaty COVID vaccine for children 12 through 15.
  • Get your shot for Santa and receive a $100 gift card! “Absolutely unethical,” said Mary.
  • In New Orleans, starting Jan. 3, 2022, proof of vaccination or a negative test will be required for everyone ages 5 and up at restaurants and public places.
  • Brazil’s health regulator approved the Pfizer vaccine for children 5 to 11 years old, joining a growing list of countries green-lighting vaccination for kids. However, Brazil’s president wants to publish the names of the officials behind the decision.
  • Kenyan authorities should amend measures requiring everyone seeking government services to be fully vaccinated to avoid undermining basic rights, Human Rights Watch said. “This was interesting to me,” said Mary.
  • Spanish health authorities are stepping up efforts to give out COVID vaccines to children before Christmas and end-of-year gatherings that usually bring large groups together.

Urgent: 3 Ways to Help Stop Biden’s Vaccine Mandates

  • No more international travel for 12- to 15-year-olds without a “COVID Pass,” UK Health Secretary Sajid Javid said this week.
  • Pfizer and BioNTech are testing a third dose of their COVID vaccine in an ongoing trial of children ages 6 months to under 5 years after the companies found the two-dose regimen didn’t generate a strong enough immune response in some children. “We live in a world of propaganda and censorship,” said Mary. “We have to try and teach people the truth.”
  • Several republicans, led by California Rep. Darrell Issa, told President Biden on Tuesday he was committing a “grave mistake” in enforcing a vaccine mandate on all U.S. military personnel.
  • The U.S. Air Force said 27 service members had been discharged for refusing to receive a COVID vaccine, the first active-duty troops believed to have been removed for defying the mandate.
  • The U.S. Navy began kicking out sailors who refuse to get the COVID vaccine, but it won’t slap dishonorable discharges on anyone for their decision to ignore a direct order.
  • Ingo Rademacher, an actor on “General Hospital” for almost 25 years, sued ABC for terminating his contract without explanation after he asked for a religious exemption to the company’s COVID vaccine mandate. “A very important case,” said Mary.
  • In a bid to push more of its workers to get vaccinated against COVID, Kroger will eliminate paid pandemic-related leave and charge $50 per month to employees that haven’t gotten shots. “The whole thing doesn’t make sense,” said Mary.
  • A trial has begun of a new needle-free COVID vaccine to protect against future variants of the virus. “Please don’t sign up for this,” said Polly.
  • The SARS Co-V-2 virus most likely originated in the Wuhan Institute of Virology, according to a new book on the subject. “Another really interesting article,” said Mary.
  • A microchip technology introduced in recent years by the Stockholm-based startup Epicenter is being presented as a means to store one’s COVID vaccine passport under the skin.
  • A shortage of vaccinated nannies, babysitters and daycare workers is making the seemingly impossible quest to find childcare even harder.
  • U.S. passenger railroad Amtrak said it will temporarily suspend a vaccine mandate for employees and now no longer expects to be forced to cut some service in January. “It’s crumbling,” said Polly.
  • Boeing suspended its COVID vaccination requirement for U.S.-based employees, capping weeks of uncertainty as thousands of workers sought exemptions, and challenges to a federal mandate played out in court.
  • The CEO of Southwest Airlines claimed in a Senate hearing that wearing masks to stop the spread of COVIDon f lights is excessive. He argued high-end air filtration systems make planes the safest indoor space to be in. “They don’t want masks on their planes,” said Polly.

2021-12-21 CDC, FDA Say No Deaths From COVID Vaccines. VAERS Data Tell Different Story The U.S. Food and Drug Administration and Centers for Disease Control and Prevention claim no deaths can be attributed to the COVID vaccines, but it’s impossible to discount the thousands of deaths reported so far to the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System.

  • The U.S. Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS) is among the best adverse event data collection systems in the world, but it’s antiquated and difficult to use. Still, it’s a good way to detect safety signals that weren’t detected during premarket testing or clinical trials.
  • There are unmistakable, unprecedented safety signals in VAERS for the COVID shots. While the U.S. Food and Drug Administration and Centers for Disease Control and Prevention claim no deaths can be attributed to the COVID jabs, it’s impossible to discount 8,986 deaths in the U.S. territories alone, reported as of Nov. 26.
  • The estimated underreporting factor for COVID jab injuries in VAERS is between 31 and 100, so the actual death toll in the U.S. could be anywhere from 278,500 to 898,600.
  • There’s a strong safety signal for female reproductive issues and for heart inflammation (myocarditis) in young men and boys. VAERS data show an inverse relationship between myocarditis and age, with youths being more frequently affected than older men.
  • VAERS data are being deleted without explanation. Each week, about 100 or so reports are routinely deleted, so there are now thousands of inexplicably missing reports.

2021-12-21 CEO of New York’s Largest Hospital System Says ‘No Crisis’ Despite Surging COVID Cases The CEO of New York state’s largest hospital system urged people to stay calm amid the surge in coronavirus cases while appearing on CNN Tuesday. Michael Dowling, CEO of Northwell Health — which serves New York City, Long Island and Westchester County — told CNN that while the area’s positivity rate is rising, it does not automatically mean an increase in hospitalizations. Dowling said that as of Tuesday, hospitals in the Northwell Health network were still managing the case increases. “We’re doing very, very well. Very manageable. There’s no crisis,” he said. About 460 COVID-19 patients are in the hospital system, less than 10% of its overall capacity, Dowling said. https://www.newsweek.com/ceo-new-yorks-largest-hospital-system-says-no-crisis-despite-surging-covid-cases-1661678

2021-12-21 German Committee Recommends Booster After Three Months as Omicron Spreads Germany’s STIKO vaccine authority on Tuesday shortened the recommended period between a second coronavirus shot and a booster to three months from six, reflecting the increasing presence of the highly infectious Omicron variant. The authority said anyone over age 18 should have a booster using an mRNA vaccine three months after completing a two-shot course of COVID-19 vaccines. For the one-shot Johnson & Johnson vaccine, that period remains four weeks. STIKO also recommended that anyone over age 12 who was infected with the coronavirus should receive a shot at least three months after they recovered. https://www.reuters.com/business/healthcare-pharmaceuticals/german-vaccine-committee-recommends-booster-after-three-months-2021-12-21/

2021-12-21 Highly Vaccinated United Arab Emirates Reports Most Virus Cases in Months The United Arab Emirates (UAE) on Tuesday recorded its highest daily virus caseload in months, a spike that comes as the Omicron variant races across the globe and the Mideast tourist hub prepares to welcome hordes of tourists for the holidays. The emirate reported 452 infections in the past 24 hours, including two deaths — an increase not seen in the highly vaccinated Gulf Arab state since mid-September. The UAE boasts one of the world’s highest vaccination rates, with authorities reporting that over 99% of eligible residents have received at least one dose. The government also offers Pfizer-BioNTech booster shots to all adults. https://apnews.com/article/coronavirus-pandemic-lifestyle-health-travel-holidays-c457950607b6633170231b2f095223d3

2021-12-21 CDC Director Says Initial COVID Shots ‘May Not Be Enough’ as Omicron Rapidly Sweeps the Nation CDC Director Dr. Rochelle Walensky said the Omicron variant of the coronavirus has “over 50 mutations and because of those mutations, just being vaccinated with two doses may not be enough” ahead of the holidays. Walensky told CNBC’s “The News with Shepard Smith” on Monday that the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention was “examining” its definition of fully vaccinated. Right now, the agency defines full vaccination as two weeks after the second dose of one of the two-shot vaccines from Moderna or Pfizer or two weeks after the one-dose vaccine from Johnson & Johnson. Even so, Walensky said that vaccines “may not prevent infection” according to data so far. She said this means people need “to continue to wear their masks to prevent the infections overall.” https://www.cnbc.com/2021/12/21/cdc-dir-walensky-being-vaccinated-with-two-doses-may-not-be-enough.htm

2021-12-21 A Bluetooth Bug in a Popular At-Home COVID Test Could Falsify Results A security researcher found a Bluetooth vulnerability in a popular at-home COVID-19 test allowing him to modify its results. F-Secure researcher Ken Gannon identified the since-fixed flaw in the Ellume COVID-19 Home Test, a self-administered antigen test that individuals can use to check to see if they have been infected with the virus. Rather than submitting a sample to a testing facility, the sample is tested using a Bluetooth analyzer, which then reports the result to the user and health authorities via Ellume’s mobile app. Gannon found, however, that the built-in Bluetooth analyzer could be tricked to allow a user to falsify a certifiable result before the Ellume app processes the data. https://techcrunch.com/2021/12/21/ellume-bug-covid-results/

2021-12-21 Spain, Portugal Face New Restrictions Despite High Vaccine Rates Despite vaccination rates that make other governments envious, Spain and Portugal are facing the hard truth that, with the new Omicron variant running rampant, these winter holidays won’t be a time of unrestrained joy. Portugal on Tuesday announced a slew of new restrictions over Christmas and the New Year, making working from home mandatory and shutting discotheques and bars beginning Saturday night. Also, a negative test result must be shown to enter Portuguese cinemas, theaters, sports events, weddings and baptisms until at least Jan. 9.Catalonia, home to the northeastern city of Barcelona, is prepared to become the first Spanish region to reinstate serious limitations and put a damper on the holiday cheer. Catalan health authorities have asked the courts to authorize a battery of measures including a new nightly curfew from 1-6 a.m., a limit of 10 people per social gathering, the closure of nightclubs, and capping restaurants at 50% of indoor seating and stores, gyms and theaters at 70% capacity. If approved, the rules would take effect on Christmas Eve and last for 15 days, wiping out most New Year’s party. https://apnews.com/article/coronavirus-pandemic-health-lifestyle-holidays-europe-f225f13329feb22eb525bb8931ac7e4c

Calling the program “by far the biggest booster incentive program in the United States of America,” Bill de Blasio acknowledged the limited-time opportunity but said it was coming at exactly the right time for the pandemic-weary city. New Yorkers can also go to SOMOS sites partnering with the city and get the $100 incentive.

2021-12-21 COVID: EU Vaccine Passports Only Valid 9 Months Without Booster   The European Commission announced Tuesday that COVID vaccine certificates in the bloc would only be valid for nine months without a booster shot.  Announcing the decision, the EU Commission said that a harmonized validity period for COVID vaccine passports “is a necessity for safe free movement and EU level coordination.”  EU residents are recommended to receive a booster shot six months, at the latest, after they’re fully vaccinated. But the certificate will be valid for three additional months as a grace period to ensure access to booster doses, the Commission added.    https://www.dw.com/en/covid-eu-vaccine-passports-only-valid-9-months-without-booster/a-60204437

2021-12-21 Steve Bannon Says ‘War on Unvaccinated’ Is Starting, Dismisses ‘Mass Vaccinations’ With Omicron spreading rapidly throughout the United States, Steve Bannon warned that he felt a “war” against unvaccinated people is coming and pushed back on the White House’s strategy to fight the pandemic by increasing inoculations. Bannon, the former White House Chief Strategist under Donald Trump, called Omicron the strain of COVID-19 that could help America reach herd immunity. He noted that the variant, which is now the dominant strain in the U.S., is highly transmissible but believed to cause less severe disease than other variants. The goal of herd immunity, which is achieved through either large numbers of inoculations or a majority of people having antibodies due to previous infections, is to have enough people protected from a virus that it struggles to spread and thereby helps protect those who cannot be inoculated. https://www.newsweek.com/steve-bannon-says-war-unvaccinated-starting-dismisses-mass-vaccinations-1661785

The California-based semiconductor company told employees last month they had a Jan. 4 deadline to be vaccinated against COVID-19 or seek an exemption, citing a government mandate for federal contractors. ​​In a Dec. 7 memo to employees, Chief People Officer Christy Pambianchi told employees the Jan. 4 vaccine deadline remains in place. She wrote that employees who aren’t vaccinated must seek a medical or religious accommodation and submit to weekly testing, regardless of whether they are still working remotely. https://apnews.com/article/coronavirus-pandemic-business-health-religion-oregon-1366bdfdf1f72d947fddfe39694f2223

2021-12-21 Why I’m Pro-Vaccine but Anti-Vaccine Mandate Last Thursday, the University of California fired my good friend and new colleague, Aaron Kheriaty, for refusing vaccination. The next day, a federal circuit court allowed President Joe Biden‘s OSHA vaccine mandate to take effect throughout the United States, meaning many other citizens may soon be penalized. But we should not treat conscientious objectors to the vaccine like this. Dr. Kheriaty, a physician and psychiatrist, has taught and treated patients at the UC-Irvine Hospital and Medical School for 15 years. He has also directed the medical school’s bioethics program. He treated COVID patients throughout the pandemic, including when everyone was most concerned about the virus’ lethality.

Michael O’Leary told The Telegraph that authorities should be making life harder for “idiot” anti-vaxxers or those who’ve denied the jab without good cause. “If you’re not vaccinated, you shouldn’t be allowed in the hospital, you shouldn’t be allowed to fly, you shouldn’t be allowed on the London Underground, and you shouldn’t be allowed in the local supermarket or your pharmacy either,” O’Leary told the paper. https://www.newsweek.com/airline-ceo-says-idiot-anti-vaxxers-should-not-allowed-fly-shop-groceries-1661739

But the billionaire also said he believes this current wave of the coronavirus will be over by March of next year since the new coronavirus variant spreads so quickly. Because of its quick transmissibility, Gates thinks we could get out of this wave in under three months. https://www.businessinsider.com/bill-gates-canceled-holiday-plans-due-to-omicron-2021-12

Biden Plan Will Send out 500 Million Coronavirus Tests and Federal Vaccinators Across 12 States The White House says President Biden will deliver a speech Tuesday to announce a plan to distribute 500 million free at-home rapid COVID-19 tests beginning next month, as the administration ramps up attempts to deal with the spread of the Omicron variant. The administration says it will set up a website for Americans who want to request a test to be delivered to their homes for free.

The president’s so-called “winter plan” will also send 1,000 medical military members — including doctors, nurses, and other personnel — to hospitals overwhelmed with COVID patients and will set up more free federal testing sites.

And the administration says it will deploy hundreds of federal “vaccinators” across 12 states, Tribes, and territories to help “enable thousands of additional appointments over the next few weeks.” https://www.theverge.com/2021/12/21/22848070/biden-plan-coronavirus-tests-omicron-variant-testing-vaccine

2021-12-21 Vaccinated People With COVID May Soon Not Have to Isolate for 10 Days — if They’re Asymptomatic — Fauci Suggests The federal government is considering relaxing its guidance for people with COVID-19 to isolate for 10 days after developing symptoms — particularly for healthcare workers with asymptomatic cases — Dr. Anthony Fauci said Monday, as the U.S. faces a likely huge influx in mild breakthrough cases from the highly transmissible Omicron coronavirus variant.

Fauci was asked about the isolation period after Dr. Anish K. Jha, dean of the Brown University School of Public Health, suggested on Twitter the 10-day period may be “excessive” for people who have received booster shots and only have mild breakthrough cases — though he noted “more data” on exactly when people stop being contagious “would be nice.”

2021-12-21 Researchers Show How COVID Damages Immune System, Increasing Cancer Risks — Science Says Vaccines May Do the Same The discovery by Swedish researchers that the SARS-CoV-2 full-length spike protein weakens the adaptive immune system by damaging a crucial DNA repair mechanism raises questions about whether mRNA COVID vaccines could do the same — and whether that might increase a person’s risk of developing cancer.

Noting the importance of adaptive immunity versus innate immunity, the authors wrote: “Unlike innate immune responses, the adaptive responses are highly specific to the particular pathogen that induced them. They can also provide long-lasting protection. A person who recovers from measles, for example, is protected for life against measles by the adaptive immune system, although not against other common viruses, such as those that cause mumps or chickenpox.”

Data reported to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) by Pfizer found a statistically significant 40% increase in suspected COVID cases, with 409 cases in the vaccinated group in the first week of the trial, compared to 287 in the placebo group.

The fact that the Swedish researchers reported a loss of immune function associated with the invasion of the spike protein into the cell nucleus, combined with previous clinical trial data that found transient reductions in the number of white blood cells, may explain reports of increased COVID infections shortly after vaccination. https://childrenshealthdefense.org/defender/covid-vaccines-immune-system-cancer-risks/

2021-12-21 Biden Predicts ‘Winter of Severe Illness’ for Unvaccinated, Ignores Science on COVID Vaccines, Treatments In his speech today to the nation, President Biden invoked “overwhelming science” to justify his COVID solutions — vaccines, boosters and masking — but provided no details to back up the science behind his plan to end the pandemic.

But why would those solutions — the same solutions he’s been proposing all along — succeed now, when for the past two years, they’ve only failed? The president also blamed the ongoing rise in COVID cases on those purveying “dangerous misinformation” and “peddling lies.” He called out such actors as “wrong” and “immoral” and called on them to stop. Many, many times throughout today’s speech Biden pleaded for people to “please get vaccinated.”

But what the president didn’t say today was as significant as what he did say. Biden uttered not a word about effective early treatments that can save lives; about the staggering tally of injuries and deaths among the vaccinated and boosted; or about the science of antibody-dependent enhancement or pathogenic priming that seems to account for “breakthrough” cases among the vaccinated. Biden didn’t mention the states and corporations that refuse to uphold federal vaccine mandates; the obscene profits COVID vaccine makers are reaping; or the rampant, serious inflationary pressure his COVID policies have engendered.

It is hard to see that anything the president announced today will dramatically alter the current course of more fearmongering, more blame heaped on the unvaccinated, and more preventable deaths caused by the failure to promote safe and effective early treatments against COVID. https://childrenshealthdefense.org/defender/biden-predicts-winter-of-severe-illness-unvaccinated

2021-12-21 Austrians at ‘Epicenter’ of Battle for Medical Freedom, Democracy three individuals close to the developing authoritarian crisis in Austria said the country is on the front lines of an ongoing dangerous medical experiment, testing the limits of social acquiescence and conformity in response to authority.

Austria is the first country in the world to propose compulsory vaccination by law. The government’s new mandates are likely to be approved by the legislature in January and are set to take effect in February 2022. As the law is currently written, the mandates will expire in January 2024. Those who don’t comply with vaccination and booster shot requirements will be required to pay quarterly fines, with the exception of pregnant women and children under 14, who will not be required to get the vaccine. In a nation of 9 million people claiming two-thirds of the population is vaccinated, the law will potentially ostracize and penalize at least a third of Austria’s citizens. The number of those fined could dramatically increase as people refuse additional boosters. https://childrenshealthdefense.org/defender/austrians-battle-medical-freedom-democracy/?

2021-12-21 AP’s Hit Piece on RFK, Jr. Symbolizes Intellectual, Moral Collapse of Mainstream News Industry The mainstream media are incapable of facing the truth about Pharma because it would reveal their own complicity in crimes against humanity.

In their shame and humiliation, the object of their ire becomes Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. Kennedy is everything they are not. He is smarter and more successful than they are. But more than that, Kennedy has moral character, something that is in vanishingly short supply in mainstream newsrooms these days. He has also more reach. COVID-19 information on Kennedy’s website, The Defender, is shared more often on social media than the corporate nonsense coming from CNN, NPR, New York Times, Washington Post and the CDC (no surprise there really). https://childrenshealthdefense.org/defender/associated-press-hit-piece-rfk-jr-mainstream-news-industry/

2021-12-20 Archbishop Viganò’s startling warning to the American people for two years now, a global coup has been carried out all over the world, planned for some time by an elite group of conspirators enslaved to the interests of international high finance. This coup was made possible by an emergency pandemic that is based on the premise of a virus that has a mortality rate almost analogous to that of any other seasonal flu virus, on the delegitimization and prohibition of effective treatments, and on the distribution of an experimental gene serum which is obviously ineffective, and which also clearly carries with it the danger of serious and even lethal side effects. https://progressiveissuesblog.wordpress.com/2022/01/05/2021-12-20-archbishop-viganos-startling-warning-to-the-american-people/

There’s More to Vax Than Meets the Eye

There’s More to Vax Than Meets the Eye

We’ve been immersed in our COVID  world now for nearly two years, with a new “variant,” Omicron, raising its spikey head, fomenting press and panic in the Big Pharma racket, and causing a new wave of pain emblemized for me by seeing another man sleeping on the same sloped lawn outside the university student housing, that I first saw more than a year ago. 

Somewhat removed from the American vaxxer vs. anti vaxxer tug of war, I still receive screeds from a few colleagues who pepper my inbox with their cries of outrage, outrage mostly at finding their personal liberty infringed upon. But just yesterday, one whose mind I have found sound and reliable sent a barrage of articles and youtubes, including a transcript of an address Giorgio Agamben gave before an Italian parliamentary body as recently as last month. Giorgio Agamben is a noted Italian philosopher whose name is typical of the Veneto, one of Italy’s northern regions. He first came to my attention through the work of Mau, a Polynesian dance company whose high concept production, Tempest Without a Body, probably the most profound piece of theater I will ever have viewed in a long life-time of theater viewingwas grounded in his work.

Giorgio Agamben

His address is devoid of fluff, a scant few paragraphs really, entirely lazer focused on its two points

The first addresses the proposed Italian Parliamentary Decree that all citizens must now be obliged to carry a “green pass” (the Italian equivalent of our vaccination card) which implies that the government accepts no responsibility for any damage brought about by Big Pharma’s un-fully-tested vaccine.

His second point addresses the political problem of the “green pass,” which forces people to get vaccinated if they want to eat, have a social life, work a job, or generally try surviving.  The over-all picture he paints is of a society based on control-as-the-accepted norm. He further elaborates his point by drawing parallels with the Soviet and the Italian Fascist models.

Now imagine the U.S. congress inviting a philosopher to address one of its august bodies. What public intellectual might be considered worthy of such a summons let alone listened to? What hoodlum of greed, of financially stratospheric kleptitude would have to fit the bill?

In other pandemic news, one headline reads “Moderna  refuses to share vaccine recipe with all of Africa as Omicron rises.”  Another reads “First U.S. case confirmed as WHO chief decries failure to share vaccines globally.” Profits for Big Pharma come first over kicking the pandemic habit; greed will guarantee that people of the world continue to suffer until the entire world is immunized—which at the rate we are going will take the next forty years..

The other very significant article reports publication of Robert Kennedy’s new bookThe Real Anthony Fauci: Bill Gates, Big Pharma, and the Global War on Democracy and Public Health. The link worth a read. A brief précis for folks with shorter attention spans can be found here.

Kennedy has chosen to expose the Byzantine machinations undergirding the U.S. approach to immunology.  He has this to say: “For five decades Tony Fauci has been essentially a Big Pharma agent, nurturing a complex web of financial entanglements among pharmaceutical companies and the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) and its employees that have transformed NIAID into a seamless subsidiary of the pharmaceutical industry…. [He] does not do public health; he is a businessman, who has used his office to enrich his pharmaceutical partners and expand the reach of influence that has made him the most powerful – and despotic – doctor in human history.”

Prior to all publication, the book industry in the U.S. makes sure to review all copy with a fine-toothed comb to guard against any liable suit.  You can be sure that Kennedy’s book is vermin-free.

Hope from the ground up

In all the dithering and delay by the WTO which postponed their latest scheduled meeting—a meeting which to consider a temporary waiver— owing to the emergence the Omicron variant. Some time ago, Senator Paulo Paim of Brazil proposed a bill that allows Brazil to bypass the barriers originally erected by TRIPS (Agreement of Trade-Related Aspects of Intellectual Property Rights) which according to its Article 73 allows each government to take whatever action it considers necessary to address the pandemic, including suspending property rights.  Paim‘s bill, which passed both Brazil’s House and Senate, provides  a permanent provision for overriding IP monopolies on essential technologies needed to address such health emergencies as the current pandemic.

This development had the potential of providing the entire Third World with a viable alternative model, had not Bolsonaro vetoed many of its provisions, resulting in the Senate charging him with “crimes against humanity.”  At present, because the Senate missed is deadlines restoring the bill’s original provisions following Bolsonaro’s mangling, it must now act quickly to eliminate Bolsonaro’s cuts.

Creating Dangerous Lab Viruses

Creating Dangerous Lab Viruses

A warning from the well-respected Bulletin of Atomic Scientists:

“Creating dangerous viruses in the lab is a bad way to guard against future pandemics… The federal government continues to fund such experimentation, but, as scientists, media, and online sleuths have delved into the origins of COVID-19, they have revealed weaknesses in past and current government oversight of projects modifying viruses… In 2004, the National Academy of Sciences listed “seven experiments of concern” that should not be done:

1. Demonstrate how to make a vaccine ineffective

2. Confer resistance to antibiotics or antiviral agents

3. Enhance a pathogen’s virulence or make a non-virulent microbe virulent

4. Increase transmissibility of a pathogen

5. Alter the host range of a pathogen

6. Enable a pathogen’s ability to evade diagnostic or detection modalities

7. Enable the weaponization of a biological agent or toxin.”

There are currently labs across the U.S. and the world carrying out these reckless and insane experiments, including weaponizing (engineering new variants of) SARS-CoV-2 to make it even more transmissible and virulent.

Kwanzaa

Kwanzaa

There are two African American cultural holidays in the United States, Juneteenth and Kwanzaa. Each recognizes the strength and resilience of African Americans.

How well do you know Kwanzaa?

In 1966, Dr. Maulana Karenga created Kwanzaa based on agricultural celebrations in Africa. Kwanzaa is from December 26 through January 1.

The activities of Kwanzaa are informed by ancient African views and values that reaffirm and reinforce family, community and culture. These views and values are demonstrated by the ingathering of the people, special reverence for the Creator and Creation, commemoration of the past, recommitment to our highest ideals, and celebration of the good.

Dr. Karenga created Kwanzaa to introduce and reinforce seven basic values of African culture that contribute to building and reinforcing community among African Americans as well as Africans throughout the global African community. These values are called the Nguzo Saba, a Swahili phrase for the Seven Principles.

The Nguzo Saba stands at the heart of the origin and meaning of Kwanzaa. The Seven Principles should serve as the building blocks for the community, as well as its social glue.

December 26 – Umoja (Unity)
To strive for and maintain unity in the family, community, nation and the race.

December 27 – Kujichagulia (Self-determination)
To define ourselves, name ourselves, create for ourselves and speak for ourselves.

 December 28 – Ujima (Collective Work and Responsibility)
To build and maintain our community together and to make our brothers’ and sisters’ problems our problems and to solve them together.

December 29 – Ujamaa – (Cooperative Economics)
To build and maintain our own stores, shops and other businesses and to profit from them together.

December 30 – Nia (Purpose)
To make our collective vocation the building and developing of our community in order to  restore our people to their traditional greatness.                                                

 December 31 – Kuumba (Creativity)
To do always as much as we can, in the way that we can, in order to leave our community more beautiful and beneficial than we inherited it.

January 1 – Imani (Faith)
To believe with all our hearts in our people, our parents, our teachers, our leaders and the righteousness and victory of our struggle.

THE NUREMBERG CODE

THE NUREMBERG CODE
Permissible Medical Experiments

The great weight of the evidence before us is to the effect that certain types of medical experiments on human beings, when kept within reasonably well-defined bounds, conform to the ethics of the medical profession generally. The protagonists of the practice of human experimentation justify their views on the basis that such experiments yield results for the good of society that are unprocurable by other methods or means of study. All agree, however, that certain basic principles must be observed in order to satisfy moral, ethical and legal concepts:

1. The voluntary consent of the human subject is absolutely essential. This means that the person involved should have legal capacity to give consent; should be so situated as to be able to exercise free power of choice, without the intervention of any element of force, fraud, deceit, duress, over-reaching, or other ulterior form of constraint or coercion; and should have sufficient knowledge and comprehension of the elements of the subject matter involved as to enable him to make an understanding and enlightened decision. This latter element requires that before the acceptance of an affirmative decision by the experimental subject there should be made known to him the nature, duration, and purpose of the experiment; the method and means by which it is to be conducted; all inconveniences and hazards reasonably to be expected; and the effects upon his health or person which may possibly come from his participation in the experiment. The duty and responsibility for ascertaining the quality of the consent rests upon each individual who initiates, directs or engages in the experiment. It is a personal duty and responsibility which may not be delegated to another with impunity.

2. The experiment should be such as to yield fruitful results for the good of society, unprocurable by other methods or means of study, and not random and unnecessary in nature.

3. The experiment should be so designed and based on the results of animal experimentation and a knowledge of the natural history of the disease or other problem under study that the anticipated results will justify the performance of the experiment.

4. The experiment should be so conducted as to avoid all unnecessary physical and mental suffering and injury.

5. No experiment should be conducted where there is an a priori reason to believe that death or disabling injury will occur; except, perhaps, in those experiments where the experimental physicians also serve as subjects.

6. The degree of risk to be taken should never exceed that determined by the humanitarian importance of the problem to be solved by the experiment.

7. Proper preparations should be made and adequate facilities provided to protect the experimental subject against even remote possibilities of injury, disability, or death.

8. The experiment should be conducted only by scientifically qualified persons. The highest degree of skill and care should be required through all stages of the experiment of those who conduct or engage in the experiment.

9. During the course of the experiment the human subject should be at liberty to bring the experiment to an end if he has reached the physical or mental state where continuation of the experiment seems to him to be impossible.

10. During the course of the experiment the scientist in charge must be prepared to terminate the experiment at any stage, if he has probably cause to believe, in the exercise of the good faith, superior skill and careful judgment required of him that a continuation of the experiment is likely to result in injury, disability, or death to the experimental subject.

Of the ten principles which have been enumerated our judicial concern, of course, is with those requirements which are purely legal in nature — or which at least are so clearly related to matters legal that they assist us in determining criminal culpability and punishment. To go beyond that point would lead us into a field that would be beyond our sphere of competence. However, the point need not be labored.

We find from the evidence that in the medical experiments which have been proved, these ten principles were much more frequently honored in their breach than in their observance. Many of the concentration camp inmates who were the victims of these atrocities were citizens of countries other than the German Reich. They were non-German nationals, including Jews and “asocial persons”, both prisoners of war and civilians, who had been imprisoned and forced to submit to these tortures and barbarities without so much as a semblance of trial. In every single instance appearing in the record, subjects were used who did not consent to the experiments; indeed, as to some of the experiments, it is not even contended by the defendants that the subjects occupied the status of volunteers.

In no case was the experimental subject at liberty of his own free choice to withdraw from any experiment. In many cases experiments were performed by unqualified persons; were conducted at random for no adequate scientific reason, and under revolting physical conditions. All of the experiments were conducted with unnecessary suffering and injury and but very little, if any, precautions were taken to protect or safeguard the human subjects from the possibilities of injury, disability, or death. In every one of the experiments the subjects experienced extreme pain or torture, and in most of them they suffered permanent injury, mutilation, or death, either as a direct result of the experiments or because of lack of adequate follow-up care.

Obviously all of these experiments involving brutalities, tortures, disabling injury, and death were performed in complete disregard of international conventions, the laws and customs of war, the general principles of criminal law as derived from the criminal laws of all civilized nations, and Control Council Law No. 10.

Manifestly human experiments under such conditions are contrary to “the principles of the law of nations as they result from the usages established among civilized peoples, from the laws of humanity, and from the dictates of public conscience.”

Whether any of the defendants in the dock are guilty of these atrocities is, of course, another question Under the Anglo-Saxon system of jurisprudence every defendant in a criminal case is presumed to be innocent of an offense charged until the prosecution, by competent, credible proof, has shown his guilt to the exclusion of every reasonable doubt. And this presumption abides with the defendant through each stage of his trial until such degree of proof has been adduced. A “reasonable doubt” as the name implies is one conformable to reason — a doubt which a reasonable man would entertain. Stated differently, it is that state of a case which, after a full and complete comparison and consideration of all the evidence, would leave an unbiased, unprejudiced, reflective person, charged with the responsibility for decision, in the state of mind that he could not say that he felt an abiding conviction amounting to a moral certainty of the truth of the charge.

If any of the defendants are to be found guilty under counts two or three of the indictment it must be because the evidence has shown beyond a reasonable doubt that such defendant, without regard to nationality or the capacity in which he acted, participated as a principal in, accessory to, ordered, abetted, took a consenting part in, or was connected with plans or enterprises involving the commission of at least some of the medical experiments and other atrocities which are the subject matter of these counts. Under no other circumstances may he be convicted. Before examining the evidence to which we must look in order to determine individual culpability, a brief statement concerning some of the official agencies of the German Government and Nazi Party which will be referred to in this judgment seems desirable.

2021-12-20 Pfizer’s Analysis of Vaccine Data Revealed Safety Concerns, Newly Released Documents Show A document released by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration shows Pfizer’s own analysis of adverse events following its COVID vaccine revealed safety concerns yet the FDA refuses to acknowledge them.

one of these released documents, the “Cumulative Analysis of Post-authorization Adverse Event Reports.” This document constitutes one part of Pfizer’s responsibility for pharmacovigilance with respect to their Biological License Agreement with the FDA. Pharmacovigilance refers to the science and activities relating to the detection, assessment, understanding and prevention of adverse effects or any other medicine-related problem.

Pfizer’s repeated assurances that no new safety issues exist are disingenuous at best. The FDA was overtly obstructive by withholding crucial information required to make an accurate assessment of harm. However, by using reasonable estimations based on Pfizer’s own claims and published trial data, it is likely a safety signal does exist — and that safety signal was ignored by the very organization that is supposed to be listening for it, the FDA. https://childrenshealthdefense.org/defender/pfizer-analysis-vaccine-data-safety-concerns/

2021-12-20 Facebook’s Zuckerberg Called Out by The BMJ for ‘Incompetent’ Fact Check on Pfizer Story In an open letter to Facebook’s Mark Zuckerberg, The BMJ calls the tech giant’s fact checkers “inaccurate, incompetent and irresponsible,” saying they failed to “provide any assertions of fact that The BMJ article got wrong.”

The BMJ article last month documented a host of poor practices that may have hurt data integrity and patient safety in the Phase 3 trial for Pfizer’s COVID vaccine. A whistleblower had supplied The BMJ with internal company documents, photos, audio recordings and e-mails from a contract research company overseeing some trial sites. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration declined to inspect the affected sites despite receiving a direct complaint in 2020, The BMJ said. Pfizer’s vaccine, called Comirnaty, received approval in August 2021.

In an open letter Friday, The BMJ editors explained how some readers are unable to post its Nov. 2 article on Facebook. Other readers have received pop-up warnings that if they choose to share “false information,” their posts may rank lower in Facebook’s news feed. https://childrenshealthdefense.org/defender/facebook-zuckerberg-the-bmj-fact-check-pfizer/

2021-12-20 Omicron Sweeps Across Nation, Now 73% of New U.S. COVID Cases Omicron has raced ahead of other variants and is now the dominant version of the coronavirus in the U.S., accounting for 73% of new infections last week, federal health officials said Monday. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention numbers showed nearly a six-fold increase in Omicron’s share of infections in only one week. Much about the Omicron variant remains unknown, including whether it causes more or less severe illness. https://apnews.com/article/omicron-majority-us-cases-833001ef99862bd6ac17935f65c896cf

2021-12-20 Judge Says Biden’s Vaccine Mandate Goes Beyond Workplace and Into Public Health, Blocks It A federal judge in Missouri issued a preliminary injunction Monday blocking President Joe Biden‘s COVID vaccine mandate for federal contractors in 10 states, saying it extended beyond the president’s authority and was more of a public health mandate than a workplace mandate. The decision comes in addition to the nationwide halt to the mandate issued by a federal judge in Georgia on Dec. 7. U.S. Magistrate Judge David Noce issued the ruling saying that the federal government can typically only set rules like wages, non-discrimination policies and employees’ rights for federal contracts. “The vaccine mandate would reach beyond the workplace and into the realm of public health,” Noce wrote. https://www.newsweek.com/judge-says-bidens-vaccine-mandate-goes-beyond-workplace-public-health-blocks-it-1661459

2021-12-20 Biden Administration’s Vaccine Requirements Take Center Stage at Supreme Court The Biden administration’s coronavirus protection requirements intended to persuade millions of healthcare and other workers to get vaccinated are taking center stage at the Supreme Court. More than half the states and coalitions of business and religious groups are asking the justices for emergency action to block the administration’s nationwide vaccine-or-testing mandate for large businesses, which would cover about 80 million workers. And the administration itself is asking the court to lift lower-court decisions that have blocked a vaccine mandate for healthcare workers in facilities that receive Medicare and Medicaid funds. That implicates about 17 million workers. The court has called for additional briefing in those cases by Dec. 30, which suggests rulings early in the new year. https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/courts_law/vaccine-mandate-supreme-court/2021/12/20/219651b8-61c1-11ec-8ce3-9454d0b46d42_story.html

2021-12-20 Judge Rules Against San Diego Unified’s COVID Student Vaccine Mandate A judge struck down San Diego Unified School District’s COVID-19 student vaccination mandate Monday, saying that the mandate conflicts with state law. The ruling effectively saves thousands of unvaccinated students from being kicked out of in-person school. San Diego Unified’s mandate would have forced students 16 and older to learn remotely via independent study starting Jan. 24 if they did not get both doses of the COVID vaccine by Monday. The court’s ruling, by San Diego Superior Court Judge John Meyer, immediately affects only San Diego Unified. But the ruling could have influence in challenges to COVID vaccine mandates that have been adopted by a handful of other California school districts. https://www.sandiegouniontribune.com/news/education/story/2021-12-20/sd-me-san-diego-unified-mandate-ruling

2021-12-20 Pfizer to Test 3rd COVID Shot in Kids Under 5 After Two Doses Fall Short Pfizer and BioNTech will test a third dose of their COVID vaccine on infants and children 6 months to 5 years old after the company said two doses failed to trigger a sufficient immune response in 2- to 5-year-olds. 

According to Pfizer’s press release, the phase 1/2/3 trial initially enrolled up to 4,500 children ages 6 months to under 12 in the U.S, Finland, Poland and Spain from more than 90 clinical trial sites. The trial enrolled children with or without prior evidence of SARS-CoV-2 infection, despite more than 140 studies showing natural immunity derived from previous SARS-CoV-2 infection is long-lasting, robust and durable. The companies also are testing a third dose in 5- to 11-year-olds and a third dose for adolescents between 12 and 17

The most recent data from the People’s Vaccine Alliance reveal Pfizer, BioNTech and Moderna are making combined profits of $65,000 every minute, or $93.5 million a day. as initial demand for its COVID vaccine subsides, the company could make significant profits by charging higher prices and implementing routine booster doses for new variants of the virus. company doesn’t see vaccination as a one-time event, but “as something that’s going to continue for the foreseeable future.” https://childrenshealthdefense.org/defender/pfizer-test-third-covid-shot-kids-under-five/

2021-12-20 CDC Monitoring 8 Cases of Heart Inflammation in 5- to 11-Year-Olds Who Got Pfizer Vaccine On the same day the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said it was aware of eight cases of heart inflammation in 5- to 11-year-olds vaccinated with Pfizer’s COVID vaccine, Pfizer and BioNTech announced they would seek full approval for their Comirnaty COVID vaccine for children 12 through 15.

According to the Canadian COVID Care Alliance (CCCA) — a group of more than 500 independent Canadian doctors, scientists and healthcare practitioners committed to providing evidence-based information to the public about COVID, Pfizer’s original clinical trial of 12- to 15-year-old was too small to show risk and showed no benefit — only 1,005 participants were vaccinated and 978 received the placebo. Pfizer boasted great results during the clinical trial, but the adolescents they tested were at a statistically 0% risk of death from COVID, so receiving the vaccine wouldn’t have benefited them in the first place, CCCA said. What the vaccine did do was increase the risk of adverse events, which the clinical trial wasn’t designed to detect. https://childrenshealthdefense.org/defender/cdc-heart-inflammation-children-pfizer-vaccine/

2021-12-20 26-Year-Old’s Death From Heart Inflammation ‘Probably’ Caused by Pfizer COVID Vaccine, Authorities Say Pfizer’s COVID vaccine “probably” caused 26-year-old Rory James Nairn’s death, New Zealand health authorities said Monday. The man’s fiancée warned people to pay close attention to symptoms of myocarditis after getting the shot.

The health officials attributed Rory James Nairn’s death, 12 days after his first COVID shot, to myocarditis. “With the current available information, the board has considered that the myocarditis was probably due to vaccination in this individual,” a COVID-19 Vaccine Independent Safety Monitoring Board said in a statement. Myocarditis is inflammation of the heart muscle that can lead to cardiac arrhythmia and death. It can also result from infections, but more commonly myocarditis is a result of the body’s immune reaction to initial heart damage. Nairn’s death is New Zealand’s second reported death linked to myocarditis. Health authorities in August reported a woman died from heart inflammation likely due to the vaccine. https://childrenshealthdefense.org/defender/rory-james-nairn-death-heart-inflammation-pfizer-covid-vaccine/

2021-12-20 Omicron Spreading and Infecting the Vaccinated — WHO The Omicron variant of the coronavirus is spreading faster than the Delta variant and is causing infections in people already vaccinated or who have recovered from the COVID-19 disease, the head of the World Health Organization (WHO) said on Monday. “There is now consistent evidence that Omicron is spreading significantly faster than the Delta variant,” WHO director-general Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus told a news briefing for Geneva-based journalists, held at its new headquarters building. https://www.reuters.com/world/omicron-spreading-infecting-vaccinated-who-2021-12-20/

2021-12-20 ‘It Is Embarrassing’: CDC Struggles to Track COVID Cases as Omicron Looms As the world experiences new, more transmissible COVID-19 variants, scientists and health officials in the U.S. are still struggling to gather accurate and timely domestic data to help inform policy decisions to safeguard Americans. Continuing gaps in the CDC’s data collection program, which almost two years into the pandemic still relies on state health departments who use a mix of often incompatible and outdated state systems to identify cases, impedes the nation’s understanding of where and how fast the virus is spreading, according to more than a dozen state and federal officials involved in tracking cases. In interagency health and high-level White House meetings, health and White House COVID-19 officials have lamented that U.S. epidemiological data is lacking in speed and accuracy and have advocated that the administration use data collected by international allies while considering policies on vaccinations and booster shots, those sources said. https://www.politico.com/news/2021/12/20/cdc-covid-omicron-delta-tracking-525621

2021-12-20 U.S. COVID Vaccine Mandate Revived, Supreme Court Showdown Looms A U.S. appeals court on Friday reinstated a nationwide vaccine-or-testing COVID-19 mandate for large businesses, which covers 80 million American workers, prompting opponents to rush to the Supreme Court to ask it to intervene. The ruling by the 6th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Cincinnati lifted a November injunction that had blocked the rule from the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA), which applies to businesses with at least 100 workers. Within hours of the ruling, at least three petitions were filed with the U.S. Supreme Court, asking it to immediately block the mandate. https://www.reuters.com/business/healthcare-pharmaceuticals/us-appeals-court-reinstates-covid-19-vaccine-or-test-rule-us-workplaces-2021-12-18/

This person is vaccinated and said he got the booster in late November. The league and players agreed to do something counterintuitive this week. They’re going to stop regular testing of players, and begin a “targeted” testing program, focused on players and staff who exhibit symptoms or self-report them. https://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2021/12/20/nfl-omicron-playoffs-week-15-fmia-peter-king/

2021-12-20 Whiplash on U.S. Vaccine Mandate Leaves Employers ‘Totally Confused’ The marching orders from the Biden administration in November had seemed clear — large employers were to get their workers fully vaccinated by early next year, or make sure the workers were tested weekly. But a little over a month later, the Labor Department’s vaccine rule has been swept into confusion and uncertainty by legal battles, shifting deadlines and rising COVID case counts that throw the very definition of fully vaccinated into question. Then on Friday, an appeals court lifted the legal block on the vaccine rule, though appeals to the ruling were immediately filed, leaving the rule’s legal status up in the air. On Saturday, hours after the appeals court ruling, the Labor Department’s Occupational Safety and Health Administration urged employers to start working to get in compliance. https://www.nytimes.com/2021/12/20/business/company-vaccine-mandates-biden.html

2021-12-20 Boston Mandates COVID Vaccines at Restaurants, Gyms and Theaters Starting early next year, Boston will require that patrons of indoor restaurants, gyms and entertainment venues show proof of coronavirus vaccination, Mayor Michelle Wu announced Monday morning, as infections surge in Boston amid escalating fears of the Omicron variant. Customers will have to show they’ve been vaccinated in order to enter indoor spaces like restaurants, bars, movie theaters, museums, bowling alleys, indoor pools and sports stadiums, Wu said during a Monday morning press conference. The vaccine mandate will be enforced in phases: Starting Jan. 15, all patrons over the age of 12 will be required to prove they have received at least one dose of a coronavirus vaccine, and one month later in February, they must show they have been fully vaccinated. Starting in May, children older than 5 must be fully vaccinated to enter indoor spaces in Boston, according to the city. https://www.forbes.com/sites/carlieporterfield/2021/12/20/boston-mandates-covid-vaccines-at-restaurants-gyms-and-theaters/

2021-12-20 Israel Bans Travel to the United States and Canada Amid Omicron Fears Israel on Monday barred travel to 10 new countries, including the United States, Canada and Germany, as its total number of Omicron cases reached 175 and the prime minister warned that the fifth wave of the coronavirus had already arrived. Israel’s updated “red list” now also includes Belgium, Germany, Hungary, Italy, Morocco, Portugal, Switzerland and Turkey. The list includes most of Africa as well. The ban against the added countries will come into effect Tuesday at midnight. Travel from Israel to red countries is forbidden, unless travelers receive permission from a special committee. Israeli citizens flying from a red country must enter a seven-day quarantine even if they are fully vaccinated — entry of noncitizens was banned last month. https://www.washingtonpost.com/world/2021/12/20/israel-omicron-travel-ban-canada-america/

2021-12-20 Omicron Casts a Shadow Over Winter Holidays as Countries Consider Serious Restrictions Tighter restrictions are being considered around the world as spiraling cases of the Omicron COVID-19 variant loom over the festive holiday period. A number of curbs have already been introduced in countries across Europe. The Netherlands entered full lockdown from Sunday until mid-January, leaving only supermarkets and essential shops open. School in the country have been closed. People will not be able to have more than two visitors over the age of 13 per day, although this will be raised to four people between Dec. 24 and Dec. 26. In Germany, meanwhile, only German citizens, residents and transit passengers will be allowed to enter the country from the U.K. from Monday, with all inbound travelers required to quarantine for 14 days irrespective of vaccination status. Travel restrictions were also imposed for arrivals from Denmark, Norway and France. Austria will only allow entry to vaccinated travelers from Monday, while France has already banned travel from the U.K. https://www.cnbc.com/2021/12/20/omicron-casts-a-shadow-over-winter-holidays-as-countries-mull-strict-restrictions.html

2021-12-20 The Pandemic Could Drive Another National Health Crisis, GAO Warns: Anxiety “The pandemic is potentially driving another national crisis related to its effects on behavioral health, with people experiencing new or exacerbated behavioral health symptoms or conditions.” That’s the stark warning in the first paragraph of a letter to Congress in a new Government Accountability Office (GAO) report. The expansive impact of the pandemic is demonstrated by this statistic: More than four out of 10 adults, 43%, told a Census Bureau pulse survey in November 2020 they suffered from anxiety or depression.

Citing an August 2020 Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) study, the GAO said 13% of adults responding to a survey admitted “having started or increased substance use to cope with stress or emotions related to COVID-19.” Therapists know “behavioral health problems are often under reported,” said Lynn Bufka, the American Psychological Association’s senior director of practice transformation and quality. “We’re seeing a large increase in demand for anxiety and depression treatment” by mental health professionals who report long wait times for clients seeking care, Bufka said. https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2021/12/20/pandemic-mental-health-crisis-gao-report/

2021-12-19 Omicron May Sideline Two Leading Drugs Against COVID As strained U.S. hospitals brace for a new surge of COVID-19 cases caused by the fast-spreading Omicron variant, doctors are warning of yet another challenge: the two standard drugs they’ve used to fight infections are unlikely to work against the new strain. For more than a year antibody drugs from Regeneron and Eli Lilly have been the go-to treatments for early COVID-19, thanks to their ability to head off severe disease and keep patients out of the hospital. But both drugmakers recently warned that laboratory testing suggests their therapies will be much less potent against Omicron, which contains dozens of mutations that make it harder for antibodies to attack the virus. And while the companies say they can quickly develop new Omicron-targeting antibodies, those aren’t expected to launch for at least several months. https://apnews.com/article/omicron-may-sideline-two-covid-antibody-drugs-ffab32bd6e4e6b4822360b34da1785f0

2021-12-19 Thousands in Brussels Protest Renewed COVID Restrictions Thousands of peaceful protesters demonstrated in Brussels on Sunday for a third time against reinforced COVID-19 restrictions imposed by the Belgian government to counter a spike in infections as the Omicron variant sweeps across Europe. The marchers — some with placards reading “free zone,” “I’ve had my fair dose” and “enough is enough” — came to protest the government’s strong advice to get vaccinated. They also included Belgian healthcare workers who will have a three-month window in which to get vaccinated against the virus beginning Jan. 1 or risk losing their jobs. A strong police presence and widespread preventive controls were deployed for the march, given how previous protests had descended into violence. But only 13 arrests were made for “rebellion and possession of prohibited articles,” according to police spokesperson Ilse Van de Keere. https://apnews.com/article/coronavirus-pandemic-health-europe-brussels-e31587c29152456ee2ec73c390376d07

2021-12-19 48 Test Positive for COVID on a Royal Caribbean Cruise Ship Four dozen passengers and crew tested positive for COVID-19 at the end of a weeklong Royal Caribbean cruise aboard Symphony of the Seas that sailed into Miami yesterday, reported the South Florida Sun-Sentinel. But breakthrough cases happen so routinely on cruise ships these days, it’s become something of a trend. ​​All of the ship’s passengers age 12 and older were required to be fully vaccinated and to test negative to board the cruise, which left Miami on Dec. 11. Children too young to be vaccinated were also required to test negative before sailing. In response to rising infection rates due to the Omicron variant of the coronavirus, Royal Caribbean tightened its mask policy this week to require that all passengers, regardless of vaccination status, wear masks in all indoor public areas unless actively eating or drinking. https://www.forbes.com/sites/suzannerowankelleher/2021/12/19/44-cruise-passengers-covid-19-royal-caribbean-ship/

2021-12-19 NBA Postpones 5 More Games; Young, Vogel Enter Protocols The NBA on Sunday postponed a total of five games involving nine teams in response to rising coronavirus numbers, raising the number of contests that have been pushed back this season to seven. Called off were three Sunday games: Cleveland at Atlanta, Denver at Brooklyn and New Orleans at Philadelphia. Also shelved were Orlando’s game at Toronto on Monday and Washington’s game at Brooklyn on Tuesday. Leaguewide, through Sunday evening, there were at least 75 players from 20 teams who have either been ruled out to play — or in the case of the postponed games, would have been ruled out — because they are in the protocols. U.S. officials are expecting a wave of breakthrough infections among the vaccinated given the surge of holiday travelers and gatherings expected in the coming days. The NBA has said 97% of players are fully vaccinated and somewhere around 60% had received boosters as of last week. https://apnews.com/article/coronavirus-pandemic-nba-sports-health-los-angeles-06db8d45233962b5ace667bbe13f8d9d

A total of 5,242 claims have been filed with the CICP from 2010 to Nov. 1, 2021, of which 4,751 claims are related to injuries or death from COVID-19 countermeasures, specifically 2,297 claims are for COVID-19 vaccines and 2,454 for other countermeasures. https://www.theepochtimes.com/claim-alleging-injury-or-death-from-a-covid-19-countermeasure-to-be-compensated_4164395.html

2021-12-18 A COVID ‘Viral Blizzard’ Is About to Hit the U.S., Expert Says, With ‘Millions’ to Be Infected Soon The coronavirus will hit millions of Americans in a “viral blizzard” within a few weeks as infections from the Omicron variant pile on top of Delta, an expert predicts. The Delta variant remains a problem. And Omicron, with its high transmissibility, could strike millions more soon, said Michael Osterholm, director of the Center for Infectious Disease Research and Policy at the University of Minnesota. Omicron will cause a serious strain on the healthcare system as more workers will likely get sick, Osterholm said, even though most cases from Omicron seem to be mild. https://www.cnn.com/2021/12/17/health/us-coronavirus-friday/index.html

2021-12-17 Iversen: The New Normal Is Coming. What Will It Look Like? Iversen pointed to a CBNC report that discusses what the new normal (which Iversen argued is not so normal) might look like. The article predicted “COVID will likely lose its ‘pandemic’ status sometime in 2022 … the virus will likely become ‘endemic,’ eventually fading in severity and folding into the backdrop of regular, everyday life.” “COVID will probably remain dangerous once the pandemic ends — much like the flu.”

CNBC contended this “new normal” will include wearing a mask on all public transit as well as indoors during “COVID season.” “But of course this comes at a cost,” said Iversen. “Masking children and keeping them socially distanced during playtime certainly seems like it would come with psychological side-effects.” CNBC reported that annual COVID boosters could become the norm, like annual flu shots. Iversen pointed out fewer than 50% of people get flu shots every year. “So I think another big question people will have is, ‘Will these be mandated?’” “Will people just accept that possibly Omicron or a different or future variant has mutated to the point where it’s not much more than the common cold?” she asked. “Or will people demand triple and quadruple vaccinations paired with masking every single winter? https://childrenshealthdefense.org/defender/kim-iversen-new-normal-masks-boosters/

2021-12-17 Boeing Suspends Vaccine Mandate for U.S. Employees Boeing Co (BA.N) suspended its coronavirus vaccination requirement for U.S.-based employees, the U.S. planemaker said on Friday, capping weeks of uncertainty as thousands of workers sought exemptions and challenges to a federal mandate played out in court. In an internal announcement, Boeing said its decision came after a review of a U.S. District Court ruling earlier this month that halted the enforcement of President Joe Biden‘s vaccine requirement for federal contractors. In recent weeks, the number of Boeing employees seeking a vaccine exemption on religious or medical grounds had reached more than 11,000 — or nearly 9% of its U.S. workforce — a level many times higher than executives initially estimated, Reuters first reported. The fact that the vast majority of applications were on religious grounds thrust one of America’s largest employers into the center of a debate about the ethics of probing an employee’s religious beliefs. https://www.reuters.com/business/aerospace-defense/exclusive-boeing-suspends-vaccination-requirement-us-based-employees-internal-2021-12-17/

2021-12-17 Moderna Halts Patent Fight Over Coronavirus Vaccine With Federal Government Moderna is pausing a patent dispute with the federal government over its groundbreaking coronavirus vaccine, saying it is “grateful” to government scientists who collaborated with the company and wants to “avoid any distraction” in the fight against the Omicron variant. The decision could have implications for the Biden administration’s global vaccination strategy, as officials look for leverage to share mRNA vaccine discoveries with developing countries in an effort to ramp up worldwide supply. It is also expected to turn down the heat on the Cambridge, Mass., vaccine maker, which projected as much as $18 billion in sales from its vaccine this year, and has received stinging criticism for doing too little to share its breakthroughs with poorer nations. https://www.washingtonpost.com/health/2021/12/17/moderna-vaccine-patent-dispute-nih/

2021-12-17 Fully Vaccinated Is About to Mean Something Else For nearly a year now, the phrase fully vaccinated has carried a cachet that it never did before. Being fully vaccinated against COVID-19 is a ticket for a slate of liberties — a pass to travel without testing and skip post-exposure quarantine, per the CDC, and in many parts of the country, a license to enter restaurants, gyms, and bars. For many employees, full vaccination is now a requirement to work; for many individuals, it’s a must for any socialization at all. Sometime in the very, very near future, that status — and the perks that come with it — could evaporate in an instant for millions of Americans. Medical experts and public-health officials have for weeks been calling for the CDC to alter the definition of fully vaccinated to include another dose. Countries such as Israel have already done it; Anthony Fauci has been gunning for the switch. Millions of people would be bumped back into “partially vaccinated” purgatory. Unvaccinated people would have one more hurdle to clear to achieve CDC-sanctioned status; some could be further disincentivized from getting the necessary shots. https://www.theatlantic.com/health/archive/2021/12/fully-vaccinated-cdc-boosters/621037/

2021-12-17 No Religious Exemptions to COVID Vaccine Approved Among Armed Forces Despite Over 12,000 Requests The military has not approved a single religious exemption to the COVID-19 vaccine, even as more than 12,000 service members have sought one. Every active-duty military member must be vaccinated, now that each branch’s deadline has passed, unless the person has been granted or is awaiting a response on an exemption request. According to data released by each branch, 1,746 soldiers, 2,751 sailors, 4,756 airmen, and 3,144 Marines have asked specifically for religious exemptions. While none have been approved thus far, many have not yet been denied either. Last month, a group of nearly three dozen Navy sailors, the majority of whom are Navy SEALs, filed a lawsuit seeking to get their religious exemption requests approved. The SEALs and sailors involved in the suit are either Catholic, Eastern Orthodox, or Protestant. https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/policy/defense-national-security/no-religious-exemptions-to-covid-19-vaccine-approved-among-armed-forces-despite-over-12-000-requests

2021-12-17 CDC Endorses Pfizer, Moderna Vaccines Over J&J, Citing Blood Clot Risk — But Data Show All 3 Carry Similar Risk The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention on Thursday voted 15 – 0 to “preferentially recommend” mRNA COVID vaccines Pfizer and Moderna over the Johnson & Johnson shot due to “higher-than-expected” risk of blood clots, but data show Pfizer, Moderna shots also cause blood-clotting disorders. Despite concerns over the rare blood-clotting disorder, ACIP members did not recommend removing J&J from the market citing concerns that such a decision would leave some adults without protection.

Dr. Brian Hooker, Ph.D., P.E., Children’s Health Defense chief scientific officer and professor of biology at Simpson University, said the meeting “… all looks like lip-service to the fact the spike protein activates platelets directly and causes all sorts of clotting disorders.” Hooker suggested J&J is the “sacrificial lamb” because the vaccine commands the least market share in the U.S. Similar to Mumper, Hooker also noticed the CDC was missing other clotting disorders in its analysis, including “myocardial infarction, strokes, pulmonary embolisms and deep vein thrombosis.” https://childrenshealthdefense.org/defender/cdc-johnson-pfizer-moderna-blood-clot-risk/

2021-12-17 Bill Gates and Anthony Fauci: a ‘Formidable, Nefarious’ Partnership Bill Gates and Dr. Anthony Fauci created a formidable public-private partnership that wields incredible power over the American public, and global health and food policies.

  • Bill Gates and Anthony Fauci have created a formidable public-private partnership that wields incredible power over the American public, along with global health and food policies.
  • Inspired by Rockefeller’s business model, Bill and Melinda Gates donated $36 billion worth of Microsoft stock to the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation (BMGF) between 1994 and 2018.
  • Gates also created Bill Gates Investments (BGI), which predominantly invests in multinational food, agriculture, pharmaceutical, energy, telecom and tech companies with global operations.
  • Gates strategically targets BMGF’s charitable gifts to give him control of the international health and agricultural agencies and the media, allowing him to dictate global health and food.
  • Fauci and Gates met in person, shaking hands in 2000 in an agreement to control and expand the global vaccine enterprise.
  • You can read all of the details in Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s best-selling book, “The Real Anthony Fauci,” which contains more than 2,200 footnotes of referenced data.

In 1913, Rockefeller created the Rockefeller Foundation, which is largely responsible for creating the Big Pharma-controlled medical paradigm that exists today. The foundation imbued its philosophy, precepts and ideologies into the League of Nations Health Organization, which turned into the World Health Organization (WHO). Now, Gates contributes to World Health Organization via multiple avenues, including the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation (BMGF) as well as Global Alliance for Vaccines and Immunizations (GAVI), which was founded by the Gates Foundation in partnership with WHO, the World Bank and various vaccine manufacturers. Together, this makes Gates WHO’s No. 1 funder.

These tax-deductible donations give Gates both leverage and control over international health policy, “which he largely directs to serve the profit interest of his pharma partners.” Further, “Gate’s vaccine obsession has diverted WHO’s program contributions from poverty alleviation, nutrition and clean water to make vaccine uptake its preeminent public health metric. https://childrenshealthdefense.org/defender/rfk-jr-the-real-anthony-fauci-bill-gates

2021-12-17 FDA Should Need Only ‘12 Weeks’ to Release Pfizer Data, Not 75 Years, Plaintiff Calculates The nonprofit group suing the U.S. Food and Drug Administration for the release of documents related to the approval of Pfizer’s Comirnaty vaccine calculated it should take the agency only 12 weeks with 19 reviewers working full-time to review and produce the documents. Public Health and Medical Professionals for Transparency (PHMPT) is a group of more than 30 scientists, medical professionals, international public health professionals and journalists. The group’s lawsuit argues the FDA is overestimating the time needed and understaffing the job. https://childrenshealthdefense.org/defender/fda-pfizer-comirnaty-vaccine-data-twelve-weeks/

2021-12-17 Gaslighting Autism Families: CDC, Media Continue to Obscure Decades of Vaccine-Related Harm The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s latest autism report, once again, attributed the rise of autism to “more awareness” rather than a true increase — and as usual, mainstream media fell in line with that narrative.

Twenty years (the period of time during which CDC has had its tracking system in place) is itself a gross understatement — autism prevalence in the 1990s (1 in 1,000) already represented a tenfold increase over the condition’s estimated prevalence in the 1970s. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s (CDC’s) release of its biennial report on autism prevalence as of 2018. The report estimated autism affected 1 in 44 American 8-year-olds born in 2010 (2.27%). The CDC’s prior report estimated prevalence at 1 in 54 8-year-olds born in 2008 (1.85%). Using a different methodology, the 2019-2020 National Survey of Children’s Health situated autism prevalence for children ages 3 to 17 at 1 in 34 (2.9%).

Greeting the new data with a wink and a yawn, the media also ignored the fact that some subgroups and regions are experiencing even more of a “red alert” situation. Zahorodny called attention, for example, to the finding that autism prevalence for California’s boys is an “unprecedented” 1 in 16 (6.4%) — almost double the dreadful rate of 1 in 28 boys overall (3.6%). The “Golden State” now has the dubious distinction of having the highest autism rate in the nation.

Tragically, officialdom’s willful refusal to acknowledge or address vaccine-autism safety signals is no longer just an ongoing slap in the face to those directly affected — it is now affecting the U.S. population as a whole. Why? Because CDC and Big Pharma are now using the very same playbook to gaslight victims of COVID vaccine injuries. https://childrenshealthdefense.org/defender/autism-cdc-media-vaccine-related-harm/

2021-12-17 Pfizer Expects Vaccine for Kids Under 5 in ‘First Half’ of Next Year Pfizer and BioNTech said Friday they expect to submit an application for the use of their COVID-19 vaccine in children under five years old in the “first half of 2022” as they test a third dose for the age group. Pfizer said it is studying a third small dose of its vaccine for children under 5, given that the testing so far showed that the immune response with two small doses was not as high as desired in children 2 to 4 years old. Pfizer also said Friday it is testing a third dose in children 5 to 12 and 12 to 17, as experts urge adults to get a booster shot. https://childrenshealthdefense.org/defender/covid-nw-pfizer-expects-vaccine-kids-under-5-next-year

2021-12-17 Broadway Performances Canceled Due to Breakthrough COVID Cases Several Broadway shows were forced to cancel performances this week due to positive COVID-19 tests among the cast or crew, a setback for the industry that comes just months after it raised the curtain on an 18-month shutdown due to the pandemic. Since its return, Broadway has required eligible audiences, crews, performers and other staff to be vaccinated against COVID-19. This week, the Broadway League, a trade association for the industry, began enforcing a new vaccination and mask policy for children. https://www.cnn.com/2021/12/16/entertainment/broadway-shows-canceled-covid-19/index.html

2021-12-17 Moderna COVID Shot Likelier to Cause Heart Inflammation Than Pfizer’s: Study Moderna‘s (MRNA.O) COVID-19 vaccine is up to four times more likely to cause inflammation of the heart muscle, a very rare side effect, than its rival vaccine from Pfizer-BioNTech (PFE.N), according to a Danish study published in the British Medical Journal late on Thursday. The study, in which almost 85% of Danes, or 4.9 million individuals, aged 12 and older participated, investigated the link between mRNA-based COVID-19 vaccines and heart inflammation, also known as myocarditis or myopericarditis. Earlier studies from Israel and the United States have indicated an increased risk of heart inflammation after inoculation with the mRNA-vaccines developed by Pfizer-BioNTech and Moderna. Pfizer-BioNTech’s vaccine was only associated with a higher risk of heart inflammation among women, the study said, contrasting with the results of the studies from Israel and the United States. https://www.reuters.com/business/healthcare-pharmaceuticals/moderna-covid-19-shot-more-likely-cause-heart-inflammation-than-pfizers-study-2021-12-17/

2021-12-17 New California Rules End Distinction for Vaccinated Workers Workplace regulators are poised on Thursday to extend California’s coronavirus pandemic regulations into next year with some revisions that business groups say could worsen the labor shortage. The main change to the California Occupational Safety and Health Standards Board’s revised temporary rule is that it would erase current distinctions between vaccinated and unvaccinated employees. Both would be barred from the workplace if they come in close contact with someone with the virus. “Treating vaccinated and unvaccinated people similarly really denies the scientific value of the vaccine and disincentivizes vaccination,” said Rob Moutrie, a policy advocate at the California Chamber of Commerce. https://apnews.com/article/coronavirus-pandemic-business-health-california-f9884e3dd404a93b5ce1668078cce4e5

2021-12-17 CDC Endorses Schools’ Coronavirus ‘Test-to-Stay’ Policies U.S. health officials are endorsing “test-to-stay” policies that allow close contacts of students infected with the coronavirus to remain in classrooms if they test negative. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention decided to more firmly embrace the approach, already used by many school districts, after research of such policies in the Chicago and Los Angeles areas found COVID-19 infections did not increase when using the approach. CDC’s official guidance for schools has been that when someone in a school tests positive for COVID-19 infection, those who were deemed to be in close contact should stay out of school, in home quarantine, for 10 days. With the announcement Friday, the CDC is saying both test-to-stay programs and quarantining approaches are both equally good options for schools. https://apnews.com/article/coronavirus-pandemic-science-health-centers-for-disease-control-and-prevention-public-health-6f07f95ec8f2762214bfe4521753c123

The New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio said Thursday that for now, the event will continue as planned, but only for fully vaccinated people. The celebration was canceled last year due to the pandemic. Multiple Broadway shows, including “Hamilton,” “Mrs. Doubtfire” and “Harry Potter and the Cursed Child,” called off performances in recent days because of virus cases in their all-vaccinated casts and crews. California and New York brought back indoor mask mandates. https://www.newsweek.com/times-square-new-years-eve-celebration-happening-now-nyc-watching-covid-spread-1660626

2021-12-17 The Tragedy of Johnson & Johnson’s COVID Vaccine Johnson & Johnson’s COVID vaccine was going to be a shot for the world. Now, under the weight of a mountain of bad PR, one wonders if the world will want it. On Thursday, a panel advising the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention voted unanimously that the shots developed by Pfizer and Moderna should be recommended over the J&J one. In April, U.S. regulators announced a pause of the rollout of the J&J shot while they investigated a rare but serious side effect involving both blood clots and serious bleeding. When it was finally introduced, there were distribution problems that limited supply. The vaccine’s popularity never recovered. https://www.statnews.com/2021/12/17/the-tragedy-of-johnson-johnsons-covid-vaccine/

2021-12-17 CDC’s School Mask Guidelines Fuel a Culture War That Europe, WHO Avoided The use of face masks for children as a means to combat the spread of COVID-19 has rapidly become a major point of contention and added fuel to the fire of the long-running U.S. culture war. The issue of mask-wearing has been at the center of controversial school board meetings across the country, with arguments and objections hitting headlines and footage sometimes going viral on social media. Strict advice from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) seems to have stoked that culture war. Meanwhile, the World Health Organization (WHO) and Europe’s top infectious diseases agency have largely avoided controversy by issuing guidelines that differ significantly from the CDC. Neither the WHO nor the European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control (ECDC) make that recommendation. https://www.newsweek.com/cdc-school-mask-guidelines-fuel-culture-war-europe-who-avoided-coronavirus-1660469

Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen announced the new measures, most of which will take effect early Sunday, six days before Christmas. In addition to theaters and museums, cinemas, concert halls, amusement parks and art galleries will also be required to shut doors with the new restrictions. Stores smaller than 2,000 square meters, the equivalent of 21,528 square feet, and restaurants must also limit the number of patrons allowed inside at one time.

2021-12-17 American Parents Worrying Less About Kids Contracting COVID-19: Gallup Poll Fewer parents report being worried about their child contracting COVID-19 compared to three months ago, according to a new Gallup poll. The poll found that 45% of parents with children aged 18 and younger say they are “very” or “somewhat” worried that their child will be infected with COVID-19, a drop from 53% in September. Gallup noted that vaccination status does not relieve parents’ worry about their child contracting the virus, with 63% of parents whose children have been vaccinated report being worried about them being infected, while only 17% of parents of unvaccinated children report the same. https://thehill.com/policy/healthcare/public-global-health/586275-american-parents-worrying-less-about-kids-contracting

2021-12-16 The Biden Administration Has Been Sidelining Vaccine Experts The U.S. government, over the past few weeks, has made three important decisions on vaccines without consulting independent panels of experts. On Nov. 19, the Food and Drug Administration authorized boosters for all adults — regardless of their job or any underlying health conditions.

On Nov. 29, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention announced that everyone 18 and above should get a booster shot, a revision of previous guidance that strongly recommended boosters only for those 50 and older. Then, on Dec. 9, the FDA authorized booster shots (of Pfizer) for 16- and 17-year-olds, moving the age of eligibility down from 18.

Before last month, the standard practice was for the agencies to convene standing outside advisory committees, whose members inspect the relevant data, debate it and vote. That did not happen in these cases, meaning that the costs and benefits of these policy moves, from a medical perspective, were not fully aired publicly and discussed in advance. https://www.washingtonpost.com/outlook/2021/12/16/vaccines-fda-cdc-boosters-expert-panel/

2021-12-16 ‘Many Lives Being Destroyed’ by Government’s Failure to Recognize Natural Immunity, Physician Says Dr. Marty Makary, a public health researcher at Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health, on Tuesday accused government officials of practicing “modern-day McCarthyism” against anyone who suggests young healthy people, especially those who recovered from COVID, don’t need booster shots.

Makary reminded committee members that, despite a combined annual budget of about $58 billion, neither the CDC nor the National Institutes of Health have produced credible studies on natural immunity to COVID — something his research team is undertaking, using private money. The CDC did publish two studies earlier this year, claiming to show vaccine immunity trumps natural immunity. Those studies were so flawed, in Makary’s opinion, they were “worse than a 7th grade science experiment.”

Makary accused the CDC of knowingly publishing flawed studies so people would get the vaccine, rather than wait to acquire natural immunity by getting and recovering from the virus. “Many lives are being destroyed” by the government’s failure to recognize natural immunity, Makary said. https://childrenshealthdefense.org/defender/lives-destroyed-government-failure-natural-immunity/

2021-12-16 Compulsory COVID Jabs ‘Calamitous’ for Dental Services in England Dentists’ leaders have said mandatory jabs for healthcare staff will have a “calamitous” impact on dental services in England, as a survey revealed that one in 10 dentists have not been double-vaccinated. MPs voted this week to approve regulations requiring NHS and social care staff to be vaccinated by April next year. All frontline health and care staff must be fully jabbed with two COVID-19 vaccines before 1 April or risk losing their jobs. But the British Dental Association (BDA) said compulsory vaccination risked “dropping a bomb on a service already stretched to breaking point” because it meant that thousands of dental workers would quit. The mass exodus would have devastating consequences for millions of patients, it said. https://www.theguardian.com/society/2021/dec/17/compulsory-covid-jabs-dentists-in-england-dropping-a-bomb-on-service

2021-12-16 Biden Asks Supreme Court to Revive Health Worker Vaccine Mandate The Biden administration on Thursday asked the Supreme Court to reinstate a vaccine mandate for health workers at hospitals that receive federal funding after lower courts blocked the order in roughly half of the country. Rulings by federal judges in Missouri and Louisiana have effectively halted the public health measure in 24 states in recent weeks as the U.S. death toll from COVID-19 has surpassed 800,000. Separately this week, a Texas judge on Wednesday granted a preliminary injunction to the state of Texas against the vaccine mandate. https://thehill.com/regulation/court-battles/586230-biden-asks-supreme-court-to-revive-health-worker-vaccine-mandate

2021-12-16 South Africa Hospitalization Rate Plunges in Omicron Wave South Africa delivered some positive news on the Omicron coronavirus variant on Friday, reporting a much lower rate of hospital admissions and signs that the wave of infections may be peaking. Only 1.7% of identified COVID-19 cases were admitted to hospital in the second week of infections in the fourth wave, compared with 19% in the same week of the third Delta-driven wave, South African Health Minister Joe Phaahla said at a press conference. Health officials presented evidence that the strain may be milder, and that infections may already be peaking in the country’s most populous province, Gauteng. https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2021-12-17/s-africa-says-hospitalizations-in-omicron-wave-much-lower

2021-12-16 ‘It’s Not the Government’s Job to Dictate My Healthcare,’ LA Firefighters File Case Against City’s Vaccine Mandate It’s been nearly a month since John Knox last worked a shift for the Los Angeles Fire Department. Knox, along with more than 100 Los Angeles city firefighters have been suspended without pay for refusing to comply with L.A.’s COVID-19 vaccine mandate. “Over the past 22 months, without that shot, we’ve been here helping the public,” said Knox. “There has never been an issue until the city put this mandate out. Until the city turned us from heroes to criminals. We continued to come out and serve the public.” Knox and the rest of the “Firefighters For Freedom”  have filed a lawsuit challenging the city and its vaccine mandate.

New Zealand’s tough lockdown and vaccination drives have helped keep coronavirus infections and related deaths low, but it has also drawn criticism from some calling for more freedoms and an end to mandatory vaccine requirements. The government has mandated vaccinations for teachers, workers in the health and disability sectors, police and other public service sectors. https://www.reuters.com/world/asia-pacific/thousands-protest-covid-19-rules-new-zealand-marks-90-vaccine-rates-2021-12-16/

2021-12-16 Courts Keep Chipping Away at Biden COVID Vaccine Mandates Federal judges in Louisiana and Texas continue to chip away at Biden administration COVID-19 vaccine mandates. The latest of the piecemeal blows to the vaccine mandates came Thursday in lawsuit filed by Louisiana, Indiana and Mississippi. In that case, U.S. District Judge Dee Drell in Alexandria, Louisiana, declined to block a requirement that all employees of federal contractors get vaccinated — noting that there is already a nationwide block on that mandate issued by a Georgia-based federal judge. But Drell did issue a preliminary injunction blocking the mandate in federal contracts or grant agreements between any of the three states and the federal government. Also, a Texas-based federal judge has issued a preliminary injunction blocking the mandate for healthcare workers in that state. With that ruling, dated Wednesday, the health worker mandate is now blocked in half the states. The federal Center for Medicare & Medicaid Services has not said whether it will enforce the mandate in the other states. https://apnews.com/article/coronavirus-pandemic-health-texas-louisiana-new-orleans-0a30176690a946291823a042b0429cdc

And pandemic over-regulation has made the challenges of my son’s life infinitely harder — as it has the lives of countless other individuals with disabilities. Throughout the pandemic, young children with autism and other special needs have been kicked off of flights, have been banned from flying, denied entry into museums, thrown out of bookstores and had their education stunted.

2021-12-16 Should Healthy, Vaccinated Pro-Athletes Who Test Positive Play On? Not yet, Experts Say. Coronavirus cases have spiked this week across North American professional sports despite sky-high vaccination rates among players and staffs. Sidelined stars, postponed games and disrupted seasons have doused any promise that vaccines would restore normalcy to the sports world. One month away from the NFL playoffs and barely a week out from the NBA’s annual Christmas Day showcase, both leagues are again mired in COVID-related obstacles. Among the rash of players unavailable to play after testing positive, the vast majority are vaccinated and many are asymptomatic. So in a time of widely available vaccines and booster shots, would it be safe for sports leagues to allow vaccinated, asymptomatic players who test positive for the coronavirus to play in games? https://www.washingtonpost.com/sports/2021/12/16/nfl-covid-rules-positive-tests/

2021-12-16 Booster Mandates Begin Businesses, employers and universities are taking the data into their own hands and requiring booster coronavirus shots. Booster requirements are steadily rolling out across the country, even though the federal definition of “fully vaccinated” hasn’t yet changed from two shots of Moderna or Pfizer and one of J&J. Americans are split on what they think the definition of fully vaccinated is, according to Harris polling provided exclusively to Axios. 49% of adults said that “fully vaccinated” means two shots of Pfizer or Moderna or one shot of J&J, and 51% said that “fully vaccinated” now includes a booster. When asked by a reporter yesterday about changing the official definition of fully vaccinated, CDC Director Rochelle Walensky didn’t give any hints about when that may happen. https://www.axios.com/americans-split-on-what-it-means-to-be-fully-vaccinated-543a12fe-41ce-4321-bcae-309606e3f5ff.html

Texas-based McCullough urged that treatments including ivermectin and monoclonal antibodies are being sidelined in order to “create acceptance for, and then promote, mass vaccination.” During the three hour long exchange, McCullough also spoke at length about vaccine side effects, including myocarditis in young people. McCullough tweeted out a link to a YouTube video of the interview, which has since been pulled down. https://summit.news/2021/12/16/youtube-censors-bombshell-joe-rogan-interview-with-cardiologist-peter-mccullough/

2021-12-16 Pandemic Will End When We ‘Turn Off Our Screens,’ Says The BMJ The pandemic will end when society decides to resume normal life rather than waiting for COVID “dashboards” to register zero cases, said the authors of an article published Tuesday in The BMJ. “Pandemic dashboards provide endless fuel for news coverage, ensuring the constant newsworthiness of the COVID-19 pandemic, even when the threat is low,” wrote Peter Doshi, Ph.D., The BMJ senior editor, and David Robertson, a Ph.D. candidate in history at Princeton University.

The BMJ’s analysis comes as global attention focuses on the Omicron COVID variant, which appears to be more transmissible but less deadly than earlier strains. As of Dec 13, there was one recorded death worldwide of a person who tested positive for Omicron, according to fact-checking site Snopes.com. https://childrenshealthdefense.org/defender/bmj-covid-pandemic-end-turn-off-screens

2021-12-16 Texas Gov. Abbott Refuses Pentagon Vaccine Mandate: ‘Have Only President Biden to Blame’ Texas Gov. Greg Abbott informed the Pentagon that he will not impose the Biden administration’s COVID-19 vaccine mandate for the Texas National Guard. Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin on Aug. 25 directed all military branches to ensure service members receive the vaccine as numbers surged over the summer. Each branch of the military observed a different deadline, with the Air Force and Navy required to comply by Nov. 2 and Nov. 28, respectively. As Fox reported Wednesday, five state governors called on the Pentagon to rescind the vaccine mandate for National Guard members, but Abbott on Thursday sent a letter to Secretary Austin clearly stating he will not enforce the mandate on his state’s service members. https://www.foxnews.com/us/texas-governor-abbott-refuses-pentagon-vaccine-mandate

Six soldiers resisting the mandate were fired from leadership roles and more than 2,700 others have already been issued written reprimands, according to Army data. The Army, the largest U.S. military service, also reported the lowest number of members requesting religious exemptions. While 1,700 Army soldiers applied for exemptions, about 4,700 in the Air Force, 3,000 in the Marine Corps and 2,700 in the Navy made the requests, according to recent data from the services.

The regulator said the benefits of mass-immunization far outweigh the risks associated with the vaccine. It remains unclear, however, as to when Brazil might roll out doses to this age group. https://www.reuters.com/world/americas/brazil-health-regulator-approves-pfizer-covid-19-shot-ages-5-11-2021-12-16/

2021-12-16 Vaccine Mandates ‘Vile, Unconstitutional, Immoral, Unscientific, Discriminatory’ The National Black Caucus of the Green Party of the United States strongly opposes the use of forced vaccination via mandates and the discrimination that is being generated around these policies.

The coronavirus pandemic is one of our most dangerous wars in human history, because the most lethal attacks are the ones that catch us off guard. Being caught off guard has caused erroneous data reporting that is currently being exposed by the Freedom of Information Act request because we are not only unsure about the numbers, but being certain that the numbers are incorrect, is the most difficult issue many are facing today. In a pandemic world where verifying case numbers is becoming increasingly difficult, inclusion is imperative and our Consumer Protection plank of the Green Party of the United States (GPUS) must be honored.

Lockdowns, mandates and passports are the major issue of the day with millions of people protesting against them worldwide. In fact, what has become known as the “medical freedom” movement is arguably the biggest and most diverse international movement in world history.

Vaccine mandates and vaccine passports are among the most vile, unconstitutional, immoral, unscientific, discriminatory and outright criminal policies ever enforced upon the population and goes against everything GPUS stands for under social justice. These policies are coming from an out-of-control government at the behest of the pharmaceutical industry.

The mainstream media and social media are also working in lock-step to censor any and all doctors, scientists and investigative journalists who have an opposing view or who even question the current mainstream media orthodoxy.

2021-12-16 Vaccine Watchdog Committee Makes Pregnant Women Priority Group for COVID Vaccination Pregnant women have been made a priority group for vaccination following research showing they are vulnerable to more serious illness and pregnancy complications if they are infected with COVID-19. The vaccines watchdog, the Joint Committee on Vaccination and Immunization (JCVI), announced on Thursday that pregnant women would be moved into priority group 6 alongside adults under the age of 65 who have long-term health conditions, and urged pregnant women to get first and second doses and booster jabs as soon as possible. https://www.theguardian.com/world/2021/dec/16/jcvi-makes-pregnant-women-priority-group-for-covid-vaccination

2021-12-16 Small South Africa Patient Study Shows Omicron Breaking Through Booster Shots A small study of seven COVID-19 cases in South Africa shows the Omicron variant can break through booster vaccine shots, one of the scientists involved said on Thursday. A group of seven German visitors to Cape Town, aged between 25 and 39, were infected at some point in late November or early December with confirmed cases of the Omicron coronavirus variant. A copy of the study seen by Reuters said they all suffered only mild to moderate symptoms and none required hospitalization. Of the group, six were fully vaccinated with the Pfizer-BioNTech (PFE.N) vaccine, of whom five had also had a booster Pfizer shot while the sixth had received a booster dose of the  Moderna (MRNA.O) vaccine. A seventh had received an initial dose of AstraZeneca‘s vaccine (AZN.L), followed by a second and then third booster dose of Pfizer. None had reported past infection with COVID-19. https://www.reuters.com/world/africa/small-safrica-patient-study-shows-omicron-breaking-through-booster-shots-2021-12-16/

2021-12-16 Omicron Variant May Hasten Pace for COVID to Become Endemic, ‘Ideal Situation for a Virus’ Some health officials have expressed reserved optimism that the coronavirus Omicron strain could be a significant step in the pandemic‘s transition to becoming endemic, with one expert calling initial studies “the ideal situation for a virus.” Dr. Adam Koppel, the managing director of Bain Capital Life Sciences, told the Massachusetts High Technology panel on Tuesday that if the projections are true and Omicron becomes the dominant global strain, it will “enable us to more quickly get to an endemic state as opposed to a pandemic state where we can live more regularly with the virus more similar to the flu than what COVID has looked like,” the Boston Herald reported. https://www.foxnews.com/health/omicron-variant-may-hasten-pace-for-covid-19-to-become-endemic-ideal-situation-for-a-virus

2021-12-16 Fauci Pushes for Universal Coronavirus Vaccine The scientific quest for a universal coronavirus vaccine received a boost Wednesday, as three top federal researchers, including Dr. Anthony Fauci, outlined a path to develop new vaccines that could tackle a variety of ailments including COVID-19, some common colds and future viruses. Writing in the New England Journal of Medicine, Fauci and two colleagues said the virus that causes COVID-19 is unlikely to be eliminated, and current vaccines are too limited to prevent the emergence of new variants. Other coronaviruses are also likely to spill over from animals to become future pandemic threats, they wrote. https://www.nbcnews.com/science/science-news/fauci-pushes-universal-coronavirus-vaccine-rcna8877

2021-12-16 Cleveland Browns Coronavirus Outbreak Leaves Over 90 NFL Players on COVID Reserve COVID-19 outbreak has left over a dozen Cleveland Browns players infected with the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). Even Browns head coach Kevin Stefanski has tested positive for the virus. As a result, over 90 players across the league are now on the NFL’s COVID reserve list. This may leave the Browns rather undermanned when they play against the Las Vegas Raiders this Saturday. Nevertheless, it looks like this game will still go on, even though the NFL ended up rescheduling 15 games last season due to the pandemic. According to the following tweet on Thursday from Judy Battista, a reporter for the NFL Network, the NFL doesn’t plan on postponing or canceling the game. It’s been an outbreak season for other teams as well. Over the past week, there’s been a recent surge in positive COVID-19 tests around the NFL. https://www.forbes.com/sites/brucelee/2021/12/16/cleveland-browns-coronavirus-outbreak-leaves-over-90-nfl-players-on-covid-19-reserve/

2021-12-16 Military Members Seek New Injunction Against COVID Vaccine Mandates U.S. military members involved in a lawsuit challenging the military’s COVID vaccine mandate on Dec.10 filed an amended complaint seeking a new injunction after a judge last month rejected the U.S. Department of Defense’s assertion the Pfizer-BioNTech and Comirnaty COVID vaccines are “interchangeable.”

in his order denying the injunction, Judge Winsor acknowledged that under the Emergency Use Authorization (EUA) statute, “recipients of EUA drugs must be ‘informed’ … of the option to accept or refuse administration of the product.” Judge Winsor also pointed out that DOD’s guidance documents explicitly state only FDA-licensed COVID vaccines are mandated.

On this basis, the plaintiffs filed a claim of action in relation to the armed services’ violation of the DOD’s own vaccine mandate, wherein service members are being mandated to receive the vaccines administered under a EUA instead of the Comirnaty vaccine, which the military claims is “unavailable.https://childrenshealthdefense.org/defender/military-members-seek-new-injunction-against-covid-vaccine-mandates

2021-12-16 Refugees Lack COVID Shots Because Drugmakers Fear Lawsuits — Documents Tens of millions of migrants may be denied COVID-19 vaccines from a global program because some major manufacturers are worried about legal risks from harmful side effects, according to officials and internal documents from Gavi, the charity operating the programme, reviewed by Reuters. Many COVID-19 vaccine manufacturers have required that countries indemnify them for any adverse events suffered by individuals as a result of the vaccines, the United Nations says. Where governments are not in control, that is not possible. The concerns affect people, such as those displaced by the Myanmar, Afghanistan and Ethiopian crises, who are beyond the reach of national governments’ vaccination schemes. https://www.reuters.com/world/refugees-lack-covid-shots-because-drugmakers-fear-lawsuits-documents-2021-12-16/

C**** and the S**t We are In

Here are a few powerful video interviews that say it better than I can about Covid and the s**t we are in!

2021-12-15 My Current Opinion on Covid-19 Situation Fueled by Corporate Party leadership, both the mainstream Democrats and Republicans are hysterical concerning Covid.   There is NO science when alternative opinions concerning the “science ” are censored.  

Dr. Fauci like Trump is no GOD.  The CDC has been constantly distorting even their own data to justify a near, totally unnecessary, 100% vaccination policy.  At best the U.S. response has been a massive wealth transfer from the middle class to the super rich, damaging the economy for everyone else. Also, the CDC is heavily invested in the vaccine industry.  At worse, I don’t even want to imagine!

The unvaccinated have become the diabolical enemy deserving NO respect as humans who only want to make their own health decisions!  So why are the vaccinated so worried about the unvaccinated?  Simply because they have been told to hate the unvaccinated by the “authorities” and also because the vaccines don’t really work!   Both groups can catch Covid and transmit it at about the same rate!  As with all evil societies, there needs to be a convenient scapegoat for all the deaths! 

How about the real reason for “Covid” deaths!  Almost everyone who has died from Covid was already suffering serious comorbidities!  No one is saying Covid isn’t serious, but it is the people with comorbidities that have been at real risk!   Instead of focusing on these people’s health, the U.S. government has wasted $billions vaccinating those who don’t need it.  Healthy people who get Covid acquire considerably more immunity from reinfection than those vaccinated.  The death rate for those under 25 is miniscule and for children less than the serious injuries from the vaccinations.   In fact, this person considers forced vaccination of children to be a crime against humanity!  Also, consider that Africa which has a very low vaccination rate has had far few deaths and a much lower death rate compared to the industrialized world.  Maybe, they are just healthier because of their lifelong diet, day to day exercise and lack of obesity.  That is real science! 

There is NO science when all Intelligent peer review of Pharma, Fauci and corporate media opinions is being censored.   Thus, the lies are rampant in a distorted reality!   RFK Jr, Dr Mercola, the inventor of mRNA technology and many other medical scientists and doctors are not only being censored but outrageously smeared. In one case, apparently assassinated!  For months I have done my best to compile a full range of medical science data-based opinions along with events and reactions to the current situation.

My Additional Opinion as of 2021-12-23 We seem to have two hysterical camps concerning Covid-19.   Republicans/Trumpians and Democrats/ Faucians.  But why have so many progressives blindly joined the Faucians?    
The hypocrisy of both groups is overwhelming!  Trumpians want serious government control of a woman’s body as to abortion rights and yet they want individual freedom concerning vaccinations and masks.  Faucians want individual freedom for women as to abortion rights yet support government efforts to seriously force vaccinations on everybody and viciously attack the unvaccinated.

Then of course both groups blindly support government’s right to kill thousands on 9/11 and countless millions around the world with our military and political actions! 

Both groups do not seem to grasp how serious climate change is!  There is NO serious effort like was done in fighting WWII.   Do you think the rich and powerful, who control both groups, just don’t care either?  If climate change is not addressed politically on a serious emergency basis, there is only one other solution: the mass extermination of billions of people and soon!  I hope there is another way, but the truth about how authorities are handling Covid does not bold well!
