Former Vice-President WHO European Advisory Group: “Unvaccinated people are not dangerous; vaccinated people are dangerous – Should be Quarantined” (Video)

The UK Column was able to interview former European Advisory Group of Experts in Immunization at World Health Organization (Vice President) Professor Christian Perronne last August where he specified that COVID-19 policy is “completely stupid”.

Professor Perrone is one of France’s most highly rated experts in infectious diseases and long-time vaccine policy chief. He is being censored and criticized despite his knowledge in the field of viral diseases and vaccines.

Read his profile via UK Column:
Professor Perronne is Head of the Medical Department at Raymond Poincaré Hospital in Garches, the teaching hospital for the University of Versailles-St Quentin near Paris.
He was the University’s Head of Department for Infectious and Tropical Diseases from 1994 onwards but was fired from that position a few months ago. He is a Fellow of France’s biomedical research center of world standing, the Institut Pasteur, from which he graduated in bacteriology and virology and where he served as Deputy Director of the National Reference Centre for Tuberculosis and Mycobacteria until 1998.

He has chaired many top-level health committees, including the French Specialist Committee for Communicable Diseases, and the High Council on Public Health (French acronym: HCSP), which advises the government on public health policy and vaccination policy. He is not anti-vaccine and indeed wrote France’s vaccination policy for many years, as well as presiding over the National Consultation Group on Vaccination, also known as the Technical Committee on Vaccination (CTV).

Professor Perronne was also the Vice-President of the European Advisory Group to the World Health Organisation. At the national level in France, he has chaired the Infectious and Tropical Diseases Teaching College (CMIT), the Infectious Diseases Federation (FFI, which he co-founded), the High Council for Public Hygiene (CSHP), and the National Medical and Healthcare products Safety Agency (ANSM, previously AFSSAPS), which evaluates the health risks of medicines and is France’s sole regulator of biomedical research. Until 2013, he sat on the Scientific Council of the French Microbiology and Infectious Diseases Research Institute (IMMI/INSERM).

Despite Professor Perronne’s extensive knowledge and experience of communicable diseases, vaccines, and vaccine policy at the national and governmental levels in France, he was quickly censored for speaking out on the subject of Covid-19 vaccines, their claimed efficacy, and their identifiable risks. In short, he was professionally sidelined, his reputation was attacked and his professional opinions were censored.
His interview last August with the UK Column has gained more attention after last night’s FDA hearing on the booster shots. Here’s an excerpt from his interview:
“Vaccinated people are at risk of the new variants and transmitted. It’s been proven in different countries so vaccinated people should be put in quarantine and should be isolated from society. Unvaccinated people are not dangerous; vaccinated people are dangerous to others. It’s proven in Israel now, where I’m in contact with many physicians in Israel. They’re having big problems now; severe cases in hospitals are among vaccinated people. And in the UK also, you had a larger vaccination program and also there are problems.”

Professor Perrone continued by attacking the media on their lies that all the hospitals were full of patients, which is not the case. He said that the “variants” were less and less virulent.

He also shared his view on the use of Ivermectin and hydroxychloroquine as COVID treatment.
“So for hydroxychloroquine, I agree, but unfortunately there are not many randomized studies. But for ivermectin, there were randomized studies, and now it’s been proven. And in India now, it’s spectacular. In the Indian states where they widely used ivermectin, the success was huge, and in the states of India where they didn’t use ivermectin but they were inoculating with this so-called “vaccine”, it was a catastrophe.
If you look at the world news, there’s a woman who was at a high level in the WHO, who’s Indian, and now she’s on trial in India because she said that ivermectin was not useful and was toxic and so on.

To think that ivermectin is toxic is completely stupid: hundreds of millions, maybe billions of people in the world have taken ivermectin for diseases, for filariasis and so on. So it’s a very well-known product. No, it works; it’s completely proven.

Debunking Biden's Claim We Must "Protect The Vaccinated From The Unvaccinated"

SATURDAY, SEP 18, 2021 - 08:30 PM
Authored by Ryan McMaken via The Mises Institute,

The official line on vaccines is that they are extremely effective at protecting against serious illness. And yet, these same people are also claiming that the unvaccinated are a major threat to the vaccinated.

More specifically, President Biden claimed on September 10 that vaccine mandates were to “protect the vaccinated workers from unvaccinated workers.”

In other words, it is claimed that vaccines are remarkably effective, and that the vaccinated must also be protected from the unvaccinated. How can both claims be true at the same time? They can’t. The idea that vaccinated people are being frequently harmed by the unvaccinated is a complete fabrication, based on the pro-mandate crowd’s own mainstream data.


As Robert Fellner points out, according to the official data,

The odds of a vaccinated person dying from COVID are 1 in 137,000.
The fatality rate for seasonal flu, meanwhile, is at least 100 times greater than that.
The chance of dying in an automobile accident is over 1,000 times greater. Dog attacks, bee stings, sunstroke, cataclysmic storms, and a variety of other background risks we accept as a normal part of life are all more deadly than the risk COVID poses to the vaccinated.
Moreover, the risk of death to vaccinated people is similar to the risk of having an adverse side effect to the vaccine. And as the spokesmen for Big Pharma and the regime never tire of telling us, you shouldn’t care about having an adverse reaction, because it is so very rare and inconsequential.

So by that reasoning, vaccinated people shouldn’t worry about getting very ill from covid. Those cases are just as rare as the so, so rare cases of adverse reaction.

And yet, even after all of this, the backers of vaccine mandates are trying to whip up hysteria about how we must “protect the vaccinated” who are in grave danger thanks to the unvaccinated.

The level of mental and logical incoherence necessary to come to this conclusion is quite a feat.

It Doesn’t Stop the Spread
It must also be remembered that vaccination does not stop the spread of covid.
Fellner continues:
But as [the CDC's] Dr. Walensky explained last month, while the COVID vaccines remain incredibly effective at preventing serious illness and death, “what they cannot do anymore is prevent transmission.” This reflects the official position of the agency as well, which is why the CDC now requires vaccinated people to mask indoors and follow the same type of social distancing practices as unvaccinated people.

The official confirmation that COVID is endemic, and vaccination cannot stop transmission and thereby eliminate it in the way it could for things like polio and smallpox, makes mandates intolerable to a free society. The entire argument for mandatory vaccination originally rested on the claim that the vaccines could reliably stop transmission.
Moreover, those who are vaccinated often experience a mild form of covid when they are re-infected, which means they often spread the disease without even knowing they have it. The vaccinated also carry the same viral load as the unvaccinated, as noted last month by the UK’s Evening Standard:
While evidence demonstrates that vaccines significantly reduce hospitalisations and deaths, scientists now believe those infected by the Delta variant can still harbour similar levels of virus to those who are unvaccinated.
Previous thinking was that vaccinations would stop the spread, but now,
][T]his has been thrown into doubt and raises questions about vaccine passports … which work on the assumption that double-jabbed people are less likely to spread the virus.

Yet again, we see the notion that the vaccinated are being endangered by the unvaccinated is a fantasy of the mandate activists.

At least the CDC is being logical when it says the vaccinated should keep wearing masks. Indeed, every time we hear this from the CDC we should remind ourselves: vaccination does not stop the spread.

They're Filling Up the Hospitals!
There is a secondary fallback position the mandate pushers also use: that the unvaccinated are taking up all the intensive care beds and therefore denying people with other conditions the hospital beds that are allegedly more deserved by others.

As I pointed out here, this is also an inconsistent argument since this arguments rests on the idea that people who make unhealthy choices (like not taking a vaccine) ought to be treated as pariahs.

This only applies to one single “unhealthy choice.” These mandate pushers are apparently perfectly fine with drug abusers, smokers, and morbidly obese victims of Type-2 diabetes—the numbers of whom have been multiplying— filling up all the ICU beds. No, those people deserve their hospital beds even though they made the choice to destroy their own health. In fact if one suggests people lay off the meth pipe, the Big Gulps, or the Marlboros—in an effort to improve health—one is an intolerable "fat shamer" or someone who blames the victims.

In any case, recent data has also emerged questioning whether or not the data on hospitalizations is very useful in identifying the load imposed on ICUs by covid patients.

A recent study showed that nearly half (i.e., 48 percent) of covid hospitalizations in 2020 were mild cases. According to The Atlantic (not exactly a hotbed of anti-vaccine rhetoric):
The study found that from March 2020 through early January 2021—before vaccination was widespread, and before the Delta variant had arrived—the proportion of patients with mild or asymptomatic disease was 36 percent. From mid-January through the end of June 2021, however, that number rose to 48 percent. In other words, the study suggests that roughly half of all the hospitalized patients showing up on COVID-data dashboards in 2021 may have been admitted for another reason entirely, or had only a mild presentation of disease.
And why are there fewer severe cases now? It may be because "unvaccinated patients in the vaccine era tend to be a younger cohort who are less vulnerable to COVID and may be more likely to have been infected in the past."

Get Vaccinated Even If You Already Had Covid!
But no matter! All that matters is getting people vaccinated, and it’s all for your own good, and governments ought to be able to force medications on you. The cynical refrain of the pro-abortion Left, “get your laws off my body” only applies to one single case. In every other case, the state owns you.

This drive for vaccination no matter what can also be seen in the effort to vaccinate even those who have already recovered from covid. The claim here is that those who natural immunity should get jabbed because they have a higher incidence of reinfection—although it is admitted cases of reinfection tend to be far milder than the initial case.

Specifically, those pushing vaccination in this case may point to a study suggesting the unvaccinated are 2.34 times more likely to be reinfected than the vaccinated.

Yet, according to the pro-mandate crowd, this is 2.34 times larger than an extremely small number. After all, we’re frequently told that cases of reinfection for the vaccinated are “extremely rare” and inconsequential. So, that means for the unvaccinated, the odds of reinfection are a little more than double an inconsequential number. Now, I don’t have a degree in mathematics, but I have taken enough calculus and statistics classes to know that 2.3 times “basically zero” is also “basically zero.”

But that is the math being used by those who insist that the risk of reinfection for the vaccinated is negligible, while the risk of reinfection for the already-recovered is an enormous public health crisis.

According to the mandate pushers' own data, the drive to protect the vaccinated from the unvaccinated makes no sense at all. But I suspect they'll stick with the slogan, or even double down on it.

Washington State Now Hiring 'Strike Team' for Quarantine Facility With 24/7 Security

BY JEFF REYNOLDS SEP 18, 2021 8:58 PM ET

The State of Washington Health Department is advertising open positions for members of a new unit called the Isolation and Quarantine Strike Team. The new positions pay $3,294-4,286 per month:
These I & Q Strike Team Member Program Specialist 2s (PS2) are responsible for participating in program planning and evaluation of health service delivery products and identifying needs for personnel, supplies, and activities to support community and state response activities. These positions will staff the State Isolation and Quarantine Facility and provide for the needs of travelers that stay at the facility. I & Q Strike Team members are in responsible charge of the I & Q Facility during their shift and are tasked with responding to emergencies, training contractors and new staff, and providing guest support as needed. When we are successful, these efforts will directly support the mission of the DOH, which is to protect and improve the health of people in Washington.
No word if “travelers” and “guests” maintain the ability to come and go as they please.
The state isolation and quarantine facility, located in Centralia, Washington, will initially hire three new employees to staff its Strike Team. The duties sound benign enough:
Duties Include
  • Maintaining the readiness of the isolation and quarantine strike team, facilities, and equipment.
  • Providing direct services to the public at the I & Q facility to include: check-in, providing technical assistance, purchasing groceries and supplies for the site and guests, distributing food and resources, assisting with inventory of resources, and ensuring all guests receive excellent customer service.
  • Assisting nurses on performing rounds,
  • Maintaining facility cleanliness and processing guest laundry.
  • Providing guest transport to and from the I & Q facility.
  • Prepping the I & Q facility to receive guests, ensuring rooms are stocked and have been properly cleaned.
  • Providing outreach, education, and technical assistance to internal and external stakeholders.

One question, though: Why is a Strike Team needed? The image of a Strike Team conjures Vic Mackey and The Shield, not a benevolent public health worker. Is it as Orwellian and fascistic as it sounds, or are we just being paranoid?

The isolation and quarantine facility has generated controversy since Governor Jay Inslee announced its creation. The Daily Chronicle of Centralia reported in June:
Local officials were caught off guard last month when news surfaced that the state would be relocating its sole isolation and quarantine facility to a small inn located just off Interstate 5 in Centralia. The state has admitted to not communicating stakeholders of the last-minute move and officials from the department have apologized.
In his response to Luond, Shah outlined DOH’s decision-making process to relocate its site to the 40-bed Lakeview Inn and the safety measures and risk mitigation strategies it has implemented. He voiced his commitment to explore options to help the city recover lost lodging taxes that came as a result of the department’s occupation of the motel.
They offered further detail:
The state’s isolation and quarantine facility is a completely voluntary program that serves travelers, shipping vessel crews, military personnel, Department of Corrections work-release inmates and anyone else who contracts COVID-19 while traveling through or doing business in Washington state.
The site serves infected people in the state who don’t fall under jurisdiction of any specific county. It allows a location for people who were in close contact with someone infected to go to quarantine and a place for infected people to isolate and get over their illness.

In an update to the Centralia City Council, Clifford said there have been a total of 32 people who have been sent to the facility since it opened a month ago. Of those, two individuals have been from the state’s work-release program.
A total of 18 have requested isolation and 13 are quarantined. Two people have had to be transferred to a local hospital with worsening conditions.
The Chronicle reported the previous week that county and city officials grilled the Department of Health’s Nathan Weed, the acting assistant secretary for preparedness and response. One of the major concerns was whether the state has the authority to open a facility in an existing public health jurisdiction:
According to Weed, the facility hosts the small percentage of people who exceed local health jurisdictions’ capabilities, or who arrive in Washington and are not under any one county’s jurisdiction. Most of the time, Weed said, those individuals exposed to COVID-19 can find their own place to quarantine. Washington’s state of emergency, he said, allows the state health department to step in.

He also tried to quell fears that the site could spread the disease locally, citing 24/7 security, the voluntary nature of the facility, and the success the state has had in the more than a year of operating such facilities. Policies in place mean community transmission is “not even possible,” he said.
So the state took over a private hotel to create an isolation and quarantine facility, which has caused problems if its own. But, again, why a strike team? If it’s voluntary, why do they need 24/7 security?

This doesn’t add up.

Fauci leaks Biden’s next vaccine mandate and it’s true tyranny
By
M. Dowling
-
September 17, 2021
But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security.
~ Thomas Jefferson
The federal government is supposed to defend and protect the rights of Americans in the Constitution. Our government no longer does that. It does the opposite.

Thomas Jefferson said, “When tyranny becomes law, rebellion becomes duty.” We are now living in a tyrannical government. Biden’s nationwide vaccine mandate, and use of corporations as an arm of government, is a most unconstitutional executive action. A government cannot mandate Americans to inject themselves with a drug.

Joe Biden is trying to take power over our health and what drugs we take. We must fight this.
Biden’s original unconstitutional order mandated that all healthcare workers get the shot. He made NO allowances for natural immunity.

Biden is also bullying businesses employing more than 100 workers to fire anyone who refuses to get the shot he will inflict massive fines. In the least, they have to test every week. About 100 million Americans fall under this mandate. Joe Biden is claiming he has the right to decide what goes into peoples’ bodies.

This is insane.

According to Anthony Fauci himself, the administration is working on a domestic travel vaccine passport requirement. This would require that all Americans traveling across state lines first prove that they are vaccinated. Biden is literally trying to eliminate your freedom of movement.

This is what they did in Soviet East Berlin. You needed a passport to go from neighborhood to neighborhood.

Biden tyranny is the kind of tyranny you see under socialist/communist dictatorships. If Biden wins on this, that’s what the United States will become.

Joe Biden has violated his oath in this and in so many other ways, including the open borders. He is destroying our Bill of Rights or the people behind the curtain are.

If Joe Biden seizes this power for the government, there will be no going back.

The Congressional Review Act
Congress has the power to stop this under the Congressional Review Act. They can overturn radical executive orders. Call your representatives and your senators. Democrats have used it to overturn Donald Trump’s executive orders.

Highlights


Bulk of COVID-19 per capita deaths occur in elderly with high comorbidities.

Per capita COVID-19 deaths are negligible in children.

Clinical trials for these inoculations were very short-term.

Clinical trials did not address long-term effects most relevant to children.

High post-inoculation deaths reported in VAERS (very short-term).

Abstract
This article examines issues related to COVID-19 inoculations for children. The bulk of the official COVID-19-attributed deaths per capita occur in the elderly with high comorbidities, and the COVID-19 attributed deaths per capita are negligible in children. The bulk of the normalized post-inoculation deaths also occur in the elderly with high comorbidities, while the normalized post-inoculation deaths are small, but not negligible, in children. Clinical trials for these inoculations were very short-term (a few months), had samples not representative of the total population, and for adolescents/children, had poor predictive power because of their small size.

Further, the clinical trials did not address changes in biomarkers that could serve as early warning indicators of elevated predisposition to serious diseases. Most importantly, the clinical trials did not address long-term effects that, if serious, would be borne by children/adolescents for potentially decades.

A novel best-case scenario cost-benefit analysis showed very conservatively that there are five times the number of deaths attributable to each inoculation vs those attributable to COVID-19 in the most vulnerable 65+ demographic. The risk of death from COVID-19 decreases drastically as age decreases, and the longer-term effects of the inoculations on lower age groups will increase their risk-benefit ratio, perhaps substantially.

1. Introduction
Currently, we are in the fifteenth month of the WHO-declared global COVID-19 pandemic. Restrictions of different severity are still in effect throughout the world [1]. The global COVID-19 mass inoculation is in its eighth month. As of this writing in mid-June 2021, over 800,000,000 people globally have received at least one dose of the inoculation and roughly half that number have been fully inoculated [2]. In the USA, about 170,000,000 people have received at least one dose and roughly 80 % of that number have been fully inoculated [87].

Also, in the USA, nearly 600,000 deaths have been officially attributed to COVID-19. Almost 5,000 deaths following inoculation have been reported to VAERS by late May 2021; specifically, “Over 285 million doses of COVID-19 vaccines were administered in the United States from December 14, 2020, through May 24, 2021. During this time, VAERS received 4,863 reports of death (0.0017 %) among people who received a COVID-19 vaccine.” [3] (the Vaccine Adverse Events Reporting System (VAERS) is a passive surveillance system managed jointly by the CDC and FDA [3]. Historically, VAERS has been shown to report about 1% of actual vaccine/inoculation adverse events [4]. See Appendix 1 for a first-principles confirmation of that result). By mid-June, deaths following COVID-19 inoculations had reached the ˜6000 levels.

A vaccine is legally defined as any substance designed to be administered to a human being for the prevention of one or more diseases [5]. For example, a January 2000 patent application that defined vaccines as “compositions or mixtures that when introduced into the circulatory system of an animal will evoke a protective response to a pathogen.” was rejected by the U.S. Patent Office because “The immune response produced by a vaccine must be more than merely some immune response but must be protective. As noted in the previous Office Action, the art recognizes the term "vaccine" to be a compound which prevents infection” [6]. In the remainder of this article, we use the term ‘inoculated’ rather than vaccinated, because the injected material in the present COVID-19 inoculations prevents neither viral infection nor transmission. Since its main function in practice appears to be symptom suppression, it is operationally a “treatment”.

In the USA, inoculations were administered on a priority basis. Initially, first responders and frontline health workers, as well as the frailest elderly, had the highest priority. Then the campaign became more inclusive of lower age groups. Currently, approval has been granted for inoculation administration to the 12–17 years demographic, and the target for this demographic is to achieve the largest number of inoculations possible by the start of school in the Fall. The schedule for inoculation administration to the 5–11 years demographic has been accelerated to start somewhere in the second half of 2021, and there is the possibility that infants as young as six months may begin to get inoculated before the end of 2021 [7].

The remainder of this article will focus on the USA situation, and address mainly the pros and cons of inoculating children under eighteen. The article is structured as follows:

Section 1 (the present section) introduces the problem.
Section 2 (Background):
1)
provides the background for the declared COVID-19 “pandemic” that led to the present inoculations;
2)
describes the clinical trials that provided the justification for obtaining Emergency Use Authorization (EUA) from the FDA to administer the inoculations to the larger population;
3)
shows why the clinical trials did not predict either the seriousness of adverse events that have occurred so far (as reported in VAERS) or the potential extent of the underlying pre-symptomatic damage that has occurred as a result of the inoculations.

New revelations have come out about Anthony Fauci, the mad medic, Director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) and the Chief Medical Advisor to the President. This time from Australia.

We first noted the Wuhan Institute of Virology in 2020 and in April noted that the Institute experimented with live animals.

We also know that all work in virology in China is connected with the Chinese military and therefore any work in China in this area is in conjunction with the Chinese military.

1632085742493.png

Sharri Markson from Sky News is coming out with a book that’s a culmination of her efforts studying Anthony Fauci. She notes the following on Sky News hours ago:

I found out that his [Fauci’s] agencies had funded 60 projects at the Wuhan Institute of Virology.
I found out that he wrote a paper back in 2012 where he argued that gain of function research that’s genetically manipulating coronaviruses to make them even more dangerous and more transmissable, Fauci said that this was worth the risk of a pandemic.
And he even funded research, his agency funded coronavirus research at the Wuhan Institute of Virology, in conjunction with the Chinese military.
Here is Sky News report.

Why Does Communist China Have One of the Lowest COVID Rates?

By Larry Johnson
Published September 19, 2021 at 7:00am

Check out the COVID data (updated daily) posted at WorldOMeter. I do not know what your reaction will be, but I was stunned by the numbers. China has one of the lowest infection rates and death rates attributable to COVID. The United States, in stark contrast, has one of the highest in the world. Are we to believe that China has a better vaccine regimen? Does this mean that China has a far superior health care system than the United States? Not likely.

But I think these numbers point to something far more sinister–China deliberately targeted the United States, Western Europe and Latin America with the virus.

So let’s look at the numbers adjusted for population. Remember China and India are the largest nations in terms of population (i.e., China 1,439,323,776 and India 1,396,420,400).

According to WorldOMeter, China has had 95,623 total COVID cases since the outbreak. . That is 66 cases per 1 million population. Deaths per 1 million population is 3. Hell, that does not even qualify as an epidemic. Granted China is likely lying today like it lied last year when the word of the virus made international headlines. Since then China’s numbers have been questionable to say the least.

India, which shares a border with China and has roughly the same number of inhabitants, has 33,447,010 cases. That works out to 23,952 per 1 million population. India’s fatalities from COVID are 319 per 1 million population. One hundred times more people have died in India than in China. The good news for India, Ivermectin is working, along with Hydroxychloroquine. When you consider that squalor, poverty and terrible health care compared to the United States and Europe, this is a remarkable data point.

With the China and India numbers in mind, you will now understand how shocking the numbers are for the United States. The United States as of today (September 18, 2021) counts 42,844,035. That is 128,525 per million. We have almost ten million more than India. And compared to China? We have 448 times the number of cases. The differential in deaths is equally staggering–691,313, which is 2,074 per 1 million in population. In other words, we have seven times the deaths that India has recorded and 70 times the deaths in China.

We are on worse off with infections than Mexico. Think about that. Mexico has 27,211 per million. We have 5 times the number of infected here in the United States. The good news?

Mexico and the United States have a comparable death rate per 1 million–2072 in Mexico compared to 2074 in the United States.

There is something seriously wrong with the United States’ so-called “management” of this pandemic. When India and possibly China are doing a far superior job to us, it is time to stop our arrogant blustering about our response. And note–the number vaccinated in India is far below our vaccination rate and the Indians have not engaged in mass lock downs and mandatory mask wearing.

One other critical variable (apart from the possibility that China and India are lying about their numbers), the use of therapeutics in those countries is widespread. The U.S. approach? Cater to the pharmaceutical industry, give them billions of U.S. taxpayer dollars, make them wealthy and wind up with a response to COVID that is worse than China, India and Mexico.

Fauci Scrambles to Defend Joe Biden’s Confusing Messaging on Boosters After FDA Declines Approval (VIDEO)

By Cristina Laila
Published September 19, 2021 at 12:21pm
IMG_5531-1.jpg

Dr. Fauci scrambled to defend Joe Biden’s confusing messaging on Covid boosters after the FDA declined approval last week.

Fauci appeared on CNN’s “State of the Union” on Sunday and told host Jake Tapper that Biden didn’t make a mistake when he prematurely announced Covid boosters would become available starting September 20, 2021.

Jake Tapper played a clip of Biden telling Americans Covid boosters would be available pending FDA approval during the week of September 20.

“The FDA’s former chief scientist told CNN Friday that Biden was making that announcement ahead of time. Before the FDA and the CDC made theirs was quote, ‘Backwards and not helpful and at the very least,’ even though he did say appending approval. This is causing more confusion. Was it a mistake for the president to announce this before the FDA and CDC issued their guidance?” Jake Tapper asked Fauci.

Fauci covered for Biden: “Jake, I don’t think so. The president was very clear as was the medical group when we said we are planning to do this, and it was always said in his official statement, in the official written statement from all of us, including the FDA and the CDC that was pending and on the condition of the examination of all of the data by the FDA. It’s understandable how there could have been some confusion, but what was said was pretty clear, Jake.”

“You want to have some scientific proof. That’s the reason why right now we recommend that people go by the guidelines according to the FDA approval and the CDC recommendations,” he added.

Imagine Fauci’s response if this happened under the Trump Admin.

New York City has stringent mask and vaccine rules for civilians.

But masks and vaccines will be optional for the global elites this week at the United Nations General Assembly in New York City.

Vaccines are only for the serfs.

Breitbart.com reported:

he U.N. General Assembly will ignore vaccine requirements for attendees at next week’s big meeting in New York, snubbing NYC rules for convention centers and public gatherings.

Presidents, premiers, monarchs, dignitaries, diplomats and their traveling staff members have been told by organizers they won’t have to show coronavirus vaccination passports or other proof of inoculation on arrival at U.N. headquarters on Turtle Bay, Manhattan.

Instead attendees plus their staff will be waved through and allowed admission free of any checks with more than 100 heads of state and government and over 20 foreign ministers signed up to speak in person.

An honor system — and only an honor system – means dignitaries won’t have to show vaccination cards or other proof of inoculation as they’ll simply attest to it by swiping their ID badges at the assembly hall.

'The numbers are skewed': Colorado officials warn of inflated COVID death statistics
Health officials reportedly continuing to conflate deaths "from" and "with" COVID.

Updated: September 18, 2021 - 11:20pm

Multiple public officials in Colorado are warning that the state's official COVID-19 death count is skewed due to the practice of conflating patients who have died directly due to the disease with those who have merely tested positive for it prior to death.

Data experts and health officials have long struggled to separate out those two key data points in government tallies of COVID deaths, leading to accusations that the death rate for the disease is being inflated modestly or even significantly.

Multiple public officials in Colorado, meanwhile, told "Full Measure" host Sharyl Attkisson that they had personally observed death tallies that erred on the side of COVID, leading to death counts that were effectively misleading to the public.

Brenda Bock, the county coroner for Grand County, told Attkisson that in November she processed a murder-suicide case "and the very next day it showed up on the state website as COVID death."

"And they were gunshot wounds," she continued. "And I questioned that immediately because I had not even signed off the death certificates yet, and the state was already reporting them as COVID deaths."

Bock even claimed that authorities counted as COVID deaths two individuals who were very much not dead.

"Two of them were actually still alive," she told Attkisson, "and yet they were counting them. Had I not called them on it and asked them who those were, where were they from, all the information about it — and it's like, 'Oh, well that was a typo. They just got put in there by acciden.'"

"How many of those are typos?" she added.

James Caruso, the chief medical examiner and coroner for Denver, said he has heard similar complaints from colleagues across the state.

"I was told by some of my fellow coroners in the more rural counties in Colorado that it was happening to them, that they knew of issues where they had signed out a death certificate with perhaps trauma involved," he told Attkisson. "And they were being advised that it was being counted as a COVID-related death.

"I think early on, the people signing the death certificates probably were doing it accurately. But at some level — maybe the state level, maybe the federal level — there's a possibility that they were cross-referencing COVID tests. And that people who tested positive for COVID were listed as a COVID-related death, regardless of their true cause of death. And I believe that's very erroneous, and not the way the statistics needed to be accumulated."

Caruso and Bock both confirmed that the state eventually altered its presentation of the data to differentiate between "from" and "with" COVID deaths. Yet Bock said the inclusion of the murder-suicide case — which she claimed Gov. Jared Polis refused to remove from the count — has made her continue to question the numbers.

"I believe they're very inflated," she said. "And don't get me wrong. I believe COVID is real. And I believe people do get very sick from it. And I do believe a small number do die from that."

But "I do not believe a homicide-suicide belongs in that number," she continued. "I don't. I don't believe car accidents belong in those numbers. I think the numbers are skewed. And I think that it is my job to tell the truth.

"As coroner, when we are elected, our job is to find out the reason someone died. It's the truth. I'm not going to falsify a death certificate because my job is to tell the truth about why a person died, the cause and the manner. And I don't believe that what's going on is the truth."

More Vaccines, More Covid: Why are Case Rates Exploding in Areas with High Levels of Vaccination?

Photo of Kyle Becker Kyle BeckerSeptember 18, 2021

As the Covid pandemic continues to defy predictions about when it will finally be ‘over,’ there is a curious phenomenon taking place across the United States and around the globe: Covid-19 case rates increasing alongside vaccination rates.

The textbook examples of this disturbing trend are the nations of Israel, the United Kingdom, and the United States. Israel is now experiencing its fourth wave, which is being accompanied by another round of ‘booster shots.’ Israel has 61.5% of all adults “fully vaccinated” (although the use of ‘booster shots’ throws the term into question.)

Screenshot-9_18_2021-11_12_14-AM.jpg


The United Kingdom is experiencing another wave despite 66.5% being “fully vaccinated.”

Screenshot-9_18_2021-11_26_07-AM.jpg


The United States is seeing a wave that is now even larger than the first big wave in terms of cases. The U.S. has a 55% ‘fully vaccinated’ rate, which encompasses all adults, but skews older.

Screenshot-9_18_2021-11_30_06-AM.jpg


U.S. states vary greatly in terms of vaccination rates. Two prime examples of high case rate and high vaccination rate states are California and Washington. California has strict Covid rules, such as mask mandates and even mandatory vaccination in L.A. County.

Screenshot-9_18_2021-11_32_47-AM.jpg


Despite vaccination rates of 68% in the 12 and up demographic and 80% in the critical 65 and up demographic, California has experienced yet another wave in August. This has been accompanied by an increasing reported death rate.

Washington state is similar in that it has 73% ‘fully vaccinated’ in the 12 and up demographic, as well 89% in the 65 and up. Like California, these rates will be much higher within weeks. And like California, it is reporting soaring case and mortality rates.

Screenshot-9_18_2021-11_35_28-AM-scaled.jpg


In the midst of these remarkable trends is a brewing controversy: How much immunity is enough? As a baseline, there are two forms of immunity: Vaccinated and natural immunity. It was recently reported that the CDC estimated that 83% of the U.S. population had some form of Covid immunity, based on antibodies detected in blood samples. The CDC study showed that the estimation of those who had contracted Covid and recovered without knowing they had the illness was 120 million people – far higher than then 42 million currently being reported. That was in May. Once one factors in the ongoing Delta wave, that number could be upwards of 150 million people.

Amid this massive spread of natural immunity and vaccinated immunity, the goalposts on what constitutes “herd immunity” has shifted dramatically. “Since the start of the pandemic, the figure that many epidemiologists have offered has been 60 to 70 percent,” the NY Times originally reported in December. “That range is still cited by the World Health Organization and is often repeated during discussions of the future course of the disease.”

pub-pandemicend-ex1-ceros1.png


In the pandemic’s early days, Dr. Fauci tended to cite the same 60 to 70 percent estimate that most experts did,” the Times went on. “About a month ago, he began saying ’70, 75 percent’ in television interviews. And last week, in an interview with CNBC News, he said ’75, 80, 85 percent’ and ’75 to 80-plus percent’.”

It is important to note that Dr. Fauci is acting as if natural immunity doesn’t even exist, when we know from the CDC’s studies that it could be as high as 40% in the United States. Regardless, the NIAID Director wants a vaccination target above 80 percent, while knowing that 98% of Covid deaths are among those age 40 and above. What is going on here?

One blogger, under the pseudonym el gato malo, has shown the spotlight on one possible explanation, while admitting that the author suspects “a fair few folks are not going to like hearing it.” In the interest of readability, I will select relevant passages and capitalize them appropriately (the author has chosen a peculiar style than shuns capitalization). The following is a “hypothesis” that represents what the author argues is the “best fit” of the current data in a number of cases under observation.
The current surge in Covid deaths is caused by the vaccinated.

The Covid vaccines are extremely leaky and may well accelerate contracting and carrying Covid.

They allow for very high viral loads to go unnoticed and generate a new and severe asymptomatic spread vector to where none existed before.

The high viral loads lead to greater contagion. they may lead to greater severity (but this data is iffy and contested).

Vaccine campaigns cause superspread events because vaccination leads to a 2 week window of 40-100% more covid risk that then gets counted as “unvaccinated” because the definitions are bad.
https://boriquagato.substack.com/p/why-vaccinated-covid-deathshospitalizations
This combination makes those vaccinated with one dose or more into superspread bombs.
One might recall the case of the Texas Democrats or the Barack Obama’s birthday party at Martha’s Vineyard, where ‘fully vaccinated’ people gathered and nonetheless spurred ostensible ‘superspreader events.’ In August, CDC Director Rochelle Walensky changed her story and admitted that the vaccinated can indeed spread the Delta variant.

El gato malo presents evidence about why this explanation appears to fit the data in areas where there are case rates exploding despite presumably high levels of vaccinated and natural immunity.

You get a surge of spread… and then you get the later breakthrough cases (because the vaccines do not stop infection and just mitigate severity).

These BT [breakthrough] cases have massively high VL [viral loads] in often asymptomatic superspreaders that pass on high loading doses to the unvaccinated and greatly worsen the overall pandemic.

This further inflates apparent VE [vaccine efficacy] by subjecting the unvaccinated to a more profligate and severe disease vector than they would have been had no vaccination campaign ever been undertaken.

It moves the whole system to a a different valence.

Perversely, if the vaccinated comprise a spread vector that accelerates deaths in the unvaccinated, that would make it look like vaccines work.
Ouch.
(Told you you weren’t going to like it).
The researcher then adds the appropriate disclaimer to the argument.
I want to stress, this is a hypothesis and a work in progress. It’s just the best fit to the facts I can find right now and I REALLY hope it’s wrong because if it’s right, this vaccination campaign is probably the worst health blunder in human history and the epidemiology and politics of that will get stunningly, surreally bad.
But if this hypothesis proves out, then calling this an ‘epidemic of the unvaccinated’ is 180 degrees wrong.
Indeed, it would be generous to call it “the worst health blunder in human history.” It would give rise to a diabolical scenario where two opposing camps – the vaccinated and the unvaccinated – would be clashing incessantly over who is killing whom.

The only plausible solution: More vaccines, forever.

"The Story Is Not Over" - Fauci Rejects "The Science", Says Covid Boosters Still Likely Despite FDA Rebuke

SUNDAY, SEP 19, 2021 - 03:40 PM

Following Friday's FDA blow to Biden's aggressive push to buy the Pfizer CEO a new yacht for covid booster shots, Anthony Fauci said booster shots for more of the US population remain a possibility soon, as additional data on the still-widening outbreak come in.

Fauci, who is still Joe Biden’s chief medical adviser and is somehow employed as director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases despite recent evidence that he funded Chinese gain-of-function virus research at Wuhan despite an explicit US ban and may have been indirectly responsible for the Covid pandemic, spoke two days after an advisory panel to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration smacked down Biden's national rollout of boosters for all ages, approving them only for people 65 and older and those who are medically vulnerable.

“The story is not over because more and more data is coming in and will be coming in,” Fauci said Sunday on ABC’s “This Week.”

1:29 min

Last month, Biden said a broad booster plan would begin on Monday, but the FDA’s vaccine advisory panel voted overwhelmingly against recommending booster shots for the general public and instead voted to recommend them to individuals who are aged 65 and older. During that meeting, a number of scientists expressed concern for booster-associated side-effects among younger people and children. As a result, the panel's narrower recommendation was, as Bloomberg writes "seen as rebuke to a president whose policy was seen as getting ahead of the science."

For what it's worth, Fauci said he did not believe the panel “made a mistake.”

“The one thing people need to realize is data are coming in literally on a daily and weekly basis,” he said on CNN’s “State of the Union.” “They are going to continue to look at this literally in real-time.” In other words, Fauci is confident that with time, new "science" will come in to debunk the existing "science" which according to public commentary heard during the FDA indicated, the Pfizer vaccine kills more people than it saves.

Dr. James Hildreth, a voting member on the FDA expert panel, said that he has “a serious concern of myocarditis in young people.” Meanwhile, another expert, Dr. Melinda Wharton, said she “not feel comfortable” with recommending boosters to younger people due to the risk of myocarditis.

Fauci's view was shared by the head of the U.S. National Institutes of Health, Francis Collins, who said he also believes COVID-19 vaccine booster doses will be expanded despite a panel of Food and Drug Administration (FDA) experts recommending against them for the general population.

In an interview on Sunday morning, Collins, whose agency does not oversee the FDA, said that the booster doses will be approved in the future.

“I think the big news is that they actually did approve the initiation of boosters, and remember they’re taking a snapshot of right now. We’re going to see what happens in the coming weeks,” Collins told “Fox News Sunday.” “It would surprise me if it does not become clear over the next few weeks, that administration of boosters may need to be enlarged.”

For the claim, Collins referenced studies and data published in Israel and the United States, which Pfizer also cited to make its arguments in favor of booster doses to the FDA.

“Based upon the data that we’ve already seen both in the U.S. and in Israel, it’s clear that waning of the effectiveness of those vaccines is a reality, and we need to respond to it,” Collins said, adding that he would be “surprised” if the boosters are not recommended for individuals younger than 65. However, he told the broadcaster that he isn’t sure if “absolutely everyone” will be recommended to get boosters.

“I’m a little troubled that people are complaining that the process isn’t working for them,” he said. “The process is to look at the data have the experts consider it, and then make their best judgment at that point, recognizing that the judgments may change.”
* * *
Separately, Fauci also said he expected vaccines for children younger than 12, who aren’t eligible yet, would be evaluated as early as October.

“Sometime in the next few weeks, as we get into October, we’ll be able to see the vaccines for children get enough data to be presented for safety and immunogenicity,” said Fauci.

The CDC authorized shots for children aged 12 and older earlier this year. Some school districts, including the one overseeing public schools in Los Angeles, have made it mandatory for children returning to class to get fully vaccinated. Pfizer CEO Albert Bourla last week said that the firm, which makes one of the most widely used COVID-19 vaccines in the world, will likely release clinical data on vaccines for 6-month-olds to 5-year-olds in October. COVID-19 vaccine data for children between the ages of 5 and 11 will come sooner, he said.

Federal government health officials have argued that younger children should get vaccinated due to the spread of the Delta variant of COVID-19.

“Currently, there are still trials ongoing and so the agency has to wait for the company to submit the data for those trials,” FDA vaccine regulator Peter Marks said Aug. 23. “We certainly want to make sure that we get it right.”

Fauci also said that requiring vaccines on airlines, a policy Fauci has said he personally supports, remains a possibility.

“Everything is on the table,” he said NBC’s “Meet the Press.” “We consider these things literally on a daily basis.”

White House Debating Vaccines For Air Travel After Fauci Said He'd Support A Mandate

SUNDAY, SEP 19, 2021 - 01:10 PM

According to The Hill on Sunday, the Biden administration is currently debating whether or not to implement a policy to require that passengers for all commercial air travel in the United States show proof of a Covid-19 vaccine:
The Biden administration is facing an internal debate over whether to impose vaccine mandates for air travel, with President Biden’s chief medical adviser Anthony Fauci saying he would support a mandate but the White House claiming a new policy isn’t forthcoming.
In began with Fauci's comments on theSkimm podcast days ago wherein he was asked about the possibility. "I would support that if you want to get on a plane and travel with other people that you should be vaccinated," Fauci said.

In follow-up White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki was asked about Fauci's commments on Thursday, to which she responded:
"We haven’t taken options off the table, but I don’t have any updates to share with you at this point. Our focus is on implementation of the big steps we announced last week."
Psaki said the administration is currently focused on things like mask mandates:
"Right now, our focus is on implementing those. Part of that was also doubling fines for people who were not wearing masks on planes – a step that we feel would help keep people safe on flights and reduce the spread," she said in the Thursday remarks.
White House chief of staff Ron Klain also later confirmed a vaccine mandate for all domestic air travel is something under consideration, The Hill notes.

The trade association and D.C.-based lobbying group representing all major US airports has meanwhile issued a statement saying they don't think a vaccine mandate is coming soon, and would be concerned if that happened. The Hill cites their statement as follows:
"We have been informed that there is no imminent policy proposal regarding domestic travel, and echo concerns expressed by government about the implementation and enforcement of such a policy. We remain in communication with the Administration and continue to lean into science to guide policies that prioritize the safety and wellbeing of the traveling public."
Without question such a potential mandate impacting all traveling Americans would result in huge pushback from both Republicans in Congress and a large segment of the US population.
Previously the CDC put out a public plea which "asked" Americans who remain fully unvaccinated to not travel over the Labor Day holiday weekend. "First and foremost, if you are unvaccinated, we would recommend not traveling," CDC Director Dr. Rochelle Walensky had said in a briefing at the start of September.

This unusual request from a top health authority for Americans to restrict their movement suggests the political momentum in Washington is moving in the direction for more severe measures like limiting unvaccinated people's movement within the United Sates - something which many officials and pundits have slammed as unconstitutional. Such a policy would also likely require some kind of universal 'vaccine passport' system as a means of showing proof and boarding a plane.

"This Is Not Political!" - 1000s Gather At 'Freedom Rally' In New York City To Oppose Vaccine Passport

SUNDAY, SEP 19, 2021 - 11:30 AM
Authored by Enrico Trigoso via The Epoch Times,

Thousands gathered near Central Park in Manhattan on Saturday to express their discontent with the vaccine mandates and passport requirements implemented on the city by Mayor Bill de Blasio this month.

New York City started enforcing a COVID-19 vaccine mandate Monday, with de Blasio warning that “there’ll be consequences” for those who do not follow the rules.

The mandate requires establishments to put up certain signage and verify customers’ COVID-19 vaccine proof, such as vaccination cards issued by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), New York City vaccination records, other official immunization records, the NYC COVID Safe App, or the Excelsior Pass.

Participants first gathered at Columbus Circle and then marched to Times Square, led by one of the speakers, Jo Rose.

“If you took the vaccine, I love you. This not against you, we are pro-freedom,” she announced to passersby.

Participants chanted “my body, my choice,” “no vaccine passports,” and “freedom over fear!”

Among the diverse group of speakers, the themes of unity and freedom were often brought up.
One speaker said, “The only thing that gathers us all together, different groups, different types, is our stance against tyranny. When they try to take away our freedoms, we stand.”

Another said, “Don’t use this as a political front. I don’t care about Biden. I don’t care about Trump. I don’t care if you’re a Republican. I don’t care if you’re a Democrat. I don’t care if you’re black, yellow, white, purple. I don’t care if you’re Christian, Muslim, gay, straight. I don’t care. This is a human issue and it should be bringing us all together.”

The crowd cheered in response.

Artist Tessa Lena also spoke at the rally: “It’s not about even those injections, it’s about establishing a system for artificial immunity.” She spoke about how “we are people of love, we are going to win with love.”

Mayoral candidate Bill Pepitone also spoke at the rally: “We have a president and a so-called mayor who are telling us we can’t go to work, we can’t feed our family. Our police officers can’t protect us, unless they comply. Our firefighters can’t protect us, unless they comply … our health care workers, they can’t save lives unless they comply.” He then led the crowd to chant, “We will not comply.”



Speaker Kevin Jenkins said, “This is about the very essence of what God gave us, and that is the power to be free. … It’s about the power of love that will allow us to win this battle.”

Jenkins compared the vaccine segregation to racial segregation in the 1960s. “Sixty years ago, I couldn’t walk in a restaurant because they said I was unclean … Now they’re telling us we are unclean again, not just black people, not Latino people, but all of us. We have to unify beyond race and love each other as humans.”

He urged people to only patronize restaurants that support freedom.

“When they tell you no to your humanity, you tell them no to their business.”

Mary Josephine Generoso, manager of the Pasticceria Rocco bakery in Brooklyn, said she would not be discriminating against customers by requiring proof of vaccination, defying the mandate implemented by the mayor. The business has placed signs announcing its policy to customers.

“I heard de Blasio speak, and immediately we created that sign that said ‘we do not discriminate.’ There is not a bone in my body that will allow me to discriminate against anybody for any reason any day of the year.”

She called de Blasio “the greatest unifier of New York City, because he’s brought us all together for one cause.”

“I’m taking this stance against the vaccine mandate because obviously, it’s completely discriminatory. It’s forcing me to segregate customers based on a vaccine,” she told The Epoch Times.

She also said she is being forced by the mayor to get vaccinated, even though she has natural immunity. “I am not employed by the city of New York, I don’t get a paycheck from the city of New York, I don’t get a pension from the city of New York, so I don’t understand how Mayor de Blasio is able to tell me that I have to be vaccinated in order to work in my own establishment.”

UK Data Suggests "Long COVID" Less Common Than Feared

SUNDAY, SEP 19, 2021 - 07:00 AM
Authored by Lily Zhou via The Epoch Times,

The prevalence of so-called “long-COVID” in the UK is less common than previously estimated, official data suggests.



According to an update published by the Office for National Statistics (ONS) on Thursday, only 3 percent of people who tested positive for the CCP (Chinese Communist Party) virus had symptoms lasting more than 12 weeks, “substantially lower” than the ONS’ previous estimation published in April (13.7 percent).

The ONS said the new analysis benefited from both longer follow-up time and updated statistical methodology.

Researchers analysed data between April 26, 2020, and Aug. 1 this year from more than 20,000 Coronavirus Infection Survey participants who had a positive PCR test for the CCP virus, and who can be matched to a control participant.

Among the control group, who didn’t test positive for the CCP virus, 0.5 percent had symptoms lasting 12 weeks or longer.

The 12 symptoms that ONS asked about were fever, headache, muscle ache, weakness/tiredness, nausea/vomiting, abdominal pain, diarrhoea, sore throat, cough, shortness of breath, loss of taste, and loss of smell.

Due to the observational nature of the study, it’s impossible to know for certain what were the causes of the symptoms, the ONS said.

While including non-continuous symptoms, 5 percent of the COVID group had symptoms at a point in time between 12–16 weeks after infection. In the control group, 3.4 percent of the participants had these symptoms, “demonstrating the relative commonness of these symptoms in the population at any given time,” the ONS said.

The ONS stressed that there’s currently no universally agreed definition of long COVID, and different studies are using different methods in their research into the phenomenon.

To include other known COVID symptoms outside of the 12 specified symptoms, researchers also asked participants to self-report long COVID.

Approximately 11.7 percent of participants with COVID-19 would describe themselves as having long COVID 12 weeks after infection, and 7.5 percent said they had long COVID that resulted in limitation to day-to-day activities.

“Irrespective of the approach to measurement, post-acute symptom prevalence was highest in females, adults aged 50 to 69 years, people with a pre-existing health condition, and those with signs of high viral load at the time of infection,” the ONS added.

Fully vaccinated comedian Chris Rock, 56, said he has a “breakthrough” Covid infection and told people to get vaccinated.

“Hey guys I just found out I have COVID, trust me you don’t want this. Get vaccinated.” Chris Rock tweeted on Sunday.

Earlier this year Chris Rock said he received the Johnson & Johnson vaccine.

When a fully vaccinated person gets Covid, it’s ‘proof the vaccines work.’

When an unvaccinated person gets Covid, they are mocked and told they are sick because they didn’t get vaxxed.

My son has also noticed behavior changes in other kids that were vaxed. The school is averaging 3-5 fights a week which is highly abnormal last year the entire year there were only 3.

Various National Institutes of Health agencies – including Anthony Fauci’s National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases – have funded over 250 studies authored by researchers at institutions controlled by China’s People’s Liberation Army, The National Pulse can exclusively reveal.

Following a unique investigation into the origins of scientific research papers, the whopping level of collaboration with the Chinese military will further concerns in the United States that the political class has surrendered to the Chinese Communist Party. Last week it emerged that the ranking General in the U.S. Armed Forces agreed to tip off China in advance of a U.S.-led attack.

The unearthed studies, from the National Institutes (NIH) online database, expand upon the People’s Liberation Army’s (PLA) ties to the Wuhan Institute of Virology unearthed by The National Pulse.

Of 265 studies identified by The National Pulse, the Chinese military entity most frequently appearing on studies funded by the NIH is the Beijing-based PLA General Hospital, a subsidiary of the army’s Joint Logistics Support Force of the Central Military Commission.

A now-deleted informational site about the facility notes it is “the largest comprehensive hospital in the whole army” that is “responsible for the medical and health care tasks of the leaders of the state and the military commission.”

A study – “Kras-Deficient T Cells Attenuate Graft-versus-Host Disease but Retain Graft-versus-Leukemia Activity” – has two researchers from the PLA General Hospital named as authors while noting “this work was supported in part by National Institutes of Health (NIH), National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) Grant AI079087 (to D.W.).”

Several other hospitals under the PLA’s extensive network – including branches 85, 306, 307, 401, 455, and 960 – have seen their researchers listed as authors on studies designated in the NIH database as receiving “research support” from the federal agency.

Examples of studies include “Spinal Cord Lateral Hemisection and Asymmetric Behavioral Assessments in Adult Rats,” which lists two researchers from the 960th PLA Hospital under the army’s Joint Logistics Support Force despite receiving funding from the NIH and the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs.

Similarly, researchers from the Wuhan General Hospital of China’s PLA – located in the city hosting the lab believed to be the source of COVID-19 – have also co-authored NIH-funded studies.

A 2015 study – “Differences in the distribution, phenotype and gene expression of subretinal microglia/macrophages in C57BL/6N (Crb1 rd8/rd8) versus C57BL6/J (Crb1 wt/wt) mice” – notes that “support for this work was provided by NIH grant 1R01EY022652” in addition to listing a researcher from the Wuhan General Hospital of Guangzhou Military Command as an author.

Researchers from PLA-run universities including the Second, Third, and Fourth Military Medical Universities and Third and Fifth PLA Medical Centers also appear on NIH-funded studies.

The findings align with the Chinese Communist Party’s doctrine of Military-Civil Fusion (MCF) as outlined by the U.S. State Department:
Under MCF, the CCP is acquiring the intellectual property, key research, and technological advances of the world’s citizens, researchers, scholars, and private industry in order to advance the CCP’s military aims. […] Its goal is to enable the PRC to develop the most technologically advanced military in the world. As the name suggests, a key part of MCF is the elimination of barriers between China’s civilian research and commercial sectors, and its military and defense industrial sectors. The CCP is implementing this strategy, not just through its own research and development efforts, but also by acquiring and diverting the world’s cutting-edge technologies – including through theft – in order to achieve military dominance.
The National Pulse has previously exposed NIH Director Francis Collins’s advisory role with a controversial, Chinese military-linked genomics firm and his agency’s collaborative agreements with another military-linked entity, the National Natural Science Foundation of China.

The full list of studies is listed below, along with their dates and web links to the source:

Does anybody remember which post in this huge thread had Fauci in a 2017 video taking about an upcoming disease?
Found it.

Hundreds March Against Vaxx Mandates In Orlando, Supporting First Responders

On Saturday, in downtown Orlando, this Gateway Pundit journalist documented hundreds of citizens marching in support of the medical freedoms of first responders in Orange County, who have been ordered by the far-left Mayor of Orange County to get vaccinated… OR ELSE.

Mayor Jerry Demings, the husband of House Impeachment Manager and known Trump-hater Val Demings, instituted the order last month despite Orange County Firefighters and other first-responders giving impassioned testimony imploring him to respect their medical choice and freedoms. Since Demings’ decree, Florida Governor Ron Desantis has made it clear that he will impose $5,000 fines per instance for any government agency or private business forcing vaccinations on their employees.

Despite the the fact that the Florida court system has upheld DeSantis’ order while they review it further, several counties, including Orange County have no plans on obeying the Governor’s executive order or the court’s ruling.

Saturday’s rally was one of hundreds of rallies held around the world protesting lockdowns and mandates, billed a “Worldwide Freedom Rally”. The crowd was diverse in their political views, with this journalist noticing dozens of activists who have been fixtures at left-wing gatherings over the past few years joining forces with right-leaning groups in demanding citizens retain absolute choice when it comes to matters concerning their personal health.

Justin Harvey, of We Are Change Orlando, helped organize the event along with the Freedom Keepers, members of the Orange County Fire Department and congressional candidate Jeremy Liggett. No mainstream media in the Central Florida area, from local broadcast news to the Orlando Sentinel covered the massive gathering, creating a media blackout in hopes of stymieing the groundswell of support in the community for medical freedoms and choice.
“We want to show support for our first responders when it comes to their bodily autonomy. They shouldn’t have their job held over the heads because of this. This is our focus right now, but we will be looking at recalling Orange County Mayor Jerry Demings and other commissioners who have remained silent on this issue,” Harvey told TGP.
Dozens of community leaders and firefighters addressed the crowd at Lake Eola in Downtown Orlando, before peacefully marching through the streets of Orlando’s downtown corridor. Aside from the political diversity of the crowd, a large presence of school-aged children also exercised their first amendment rights, which is truly a sign of hope for future generations that are under assault by radical social justice teachings that have invaded our school systems.

The only confrontation of the afternoon came when a double-masked man, with two cameras strapped on his shoulder, began invading the personal spaces of parents as he took photos of the young children who were bravely standing up for the medical freedoms of their fellow Americans. Parents repeatedly asked him to stop taking photos and the Orlando Police Department eventually ejected him from outside Orlando City Hall.

Firefighters and other Orange County employees have until September 30th to comply with Mayor Demings deadline to get vaccinated and more protests of his forced vaccination efforts are planned in the lead up to that deadline.

TGP will continue to monitor this situation as it unfolds and update our readers on how Governor Ron Desantis responds to Florida governments or businesses that refuse to abide by the court order to pause forced vaccinations.
