The mainstream media is now openly signaling to the world that the Wuhan coronavirus (COVID-19) is here to stay because of all the money it brings in for the elites.

On Feb. 7, The Wall Street Journal (WSJ) published a piece entitled, “As Covid-19 Vaccines Raise Hope, Cold Reality Dawns That Illness Is Likely Here to Stay” that basically confirms what we have been saying all along: that getting vaccinated for the Chinese virus will not bring back the old normal.

In fact, getting vaccinated for the Chinese virus will do a whole lot of nothing, as “authorities” say that masks, distancing, and other “new normal” protocols still need to be followed despite the jab.

WSJ writers Daniela Hernandez and Drew Hinshaw explain that even though people are now getting vaccinated by the millions, Chinese germs will continue to “circulate for years, or even decades, leaving society to coexist with COVID-19 much as it does with other endemic diseases like flu, measles, and HIV.”

The difference, of course, is that nobody was ever expected to wear a face diaper for any of those things. Only since the WuFlu came along has society been completely upended in the name of staying “safe” against the virus.

“Going through the five phases of grief, we need to come to the acceptance phase that our lives are not going to be the same,” says Thomas Friedman, a former director of the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

“I don’t think the world has really absorbed the fact that these are long-term changes,” he added.

Coronavirus is about make you poor and them rich

In other words, masks and distancing are never going away if Friedman and others like him have anything to say about it. They are now a mainstay of American life, even as many other countries return back to normal.

Some infectious disease experts say that these restrictions could go away now that there are vaccines widely available, while others are painting a grim future where things never go back to normal due to corona-fear.

According to the WSJ, there is a “new and potentially lucrative COVID-19 industry” that is “emerging” from all this. It includes manufacturers of masks, of course, as well as companies that make air quality monitoring devices, filters, diagnostic kits, and new drug “treatments.”

New Jersey-based Quest Diagnostics Inc., for instance, is expected to expand by leaps and bounds this year due to growing demand for nasal and anal swabs.

“We assume it would last for years, or be eternal, such as the flu,” says Jiwon Lim, spokesman for South Korea-based SD Biosensor, Inc., a test maker that is ramping up production of at-home Wuhan coronavirus (COVID-19) testing kits.

Switzerland-based Novartis International AG and Eli Lilly & Co. are both working to snatch their own piece of the pie as well, with new “therapeutics” for Chinese germs rapidly coming down the pipeline. Some 300 new products for the Chinese virus are currently in development.

The introduction of international COVID-19 “vaccine passports” is another lucrative business endeavor that will make a handful of people very rich, while the world plunges even deeper into a new world order prison.

Even meatpacking plants are getting in on the action by replacing their human workers with robotic arms, which they say will curb the risk of “outbreaks” by reducing the number of workers on assembly lines.

“Coexistence needs to mean no masks!” wrote one WSJ commenter. “They are unnecessary, they don’t work and they are ruining our society, damaging our children and they are unconstitutional. Wake up, America!”

Big Pharma wants to vaccinate you ANNUALLY for coronavirus … with no end, ever

covid jab
If they fail at keeping you masked and distanced for the rest of your life, at least they can say they successfully jabbed you – not just once or twice for the Wuhan coronavirus (Covid-19), but every year until the day you die.

This is the plan by Johnson & Johnson (J&J) to ensure that maximum profits continue to flow. Company CEO Alex Gorsky told CNBC that the only way to keep the Chinese virus at bay is to vaccinate people annually forever.

“Unfortunately, as [the virus] spreads it can also mutate,” Gorsky told Meg Tirrell during a “Healthy Returns Spotlight” event.

“Every time it mutates, it’s almost like another click of the dial so to speak where we can see another variant, another mutation that can have an impact on its ability to fend off antibodies or to have a different kind of response not only to a therapeutic but also to a vaccine.”

If Gorsky gets his way, which will mean huge payouts and dividends for himself, Americans will be getting vaccinated for the Wuhan coronavirus (COVID-19) “just like we would a flu shot.”

What this mystery vaccine will be made of is still unknown, but Gorsky is sure it will happen because it has to in order for Big Pharma to continue raking in the dough on the backs of people who are suffering and dying from these injections.

“I think we could all imagine a future where we’re living with this, but where we can keep the science at pace with the virus, so that we can keep on living our lives,” Gorsky added, pushing his own interests while claiming “science.”

Just say no to pharmaceutical drugs

The fact that Gorsky came right out and said all this without shame just goes to show how dumbed down the American populace has become, and how powerful Big Pharma has become. There was a time when patriots would have taken to the streets at such a proposal, recognizing it for the special scam that it is.

“Of course, the CEO of J&J – a company which stands to make billions from selling the covid vaccine year after year – has a clear conflict of interest and would like nothing more than to sell vaccines indefinitely … and to see Covid circulate within the population forever,” reports Zero Hedge.

“After all, that would not only pump up JNJ’s stock price but the CEO’s compensation as well.”

Zero Hedge certainly gets it, but are there enough others out there who also get it and who are willing to make their voices heard in opposition to this assault on human sensibility?

Anyone with a brain can see that this is all about money and control. It has nothing to do with keeping people “safe,” otherwise there would be no genetically modified organisms (GMOs), no fluoride in the water, no deadly pharmaceutical drugs at Walgreens, and so on and so forth.

The only thing being kept safe is tyranny, which sadly is going mostly unopposed in these formerly united states. Instead, most people seem to be just bowing down and taking it while the country is plunged into eternal tyranny.

“Going through the five phases of grief, we need to come to the acceptance phase that our lives are not going to be the same,” admitted Thomas Frieden, a former director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), about how people need to eulogize their old lives now and simply move on to the “new normal.”

“I don’t think the world has really absorbed the fact that these are long-term changes,” he further stated.

Politicians Seem Loath To Let Covid End

By PatriotRising -

covid politicians
Two weeks to “slow the spread” proved to be a lie as state government stay-at-home orders stretched on and on, being taken away and reintroduced at the whims of governors rather than by acts of the various legislatures. Even when we were permitted out of our homes, they imposed rules on who we could visit, how long we could visit, and what we could do while we visited.

Then they told us that once a vaccine was ready, life would get back to normal. Then it moved to once the vaccine is distributed, normal life will resume.

Now not only one, but multiple vaccines have arrived and are being distributed across the United States and the rest of world. Yet the goalposts continue to move as those who enjoy the largesse of government and the control it gives them over the populace scramble to come up with new conditions they claim must be met before the fight against COVID-19 is over and we can be allowed to live lives free of microbial terror.

Six authors, all of whom “served on the covid-19 advisory board for the Biden presidential transition” argue in a Washington Post opinion piece that there are three other milestones that must be reached before the pandemic is “solve[d].” MD Buy New $9.95 (as of 04:10 EST – Details)

“First, we need substantially more genomic surveillance.” Since there may be many variants of COVID within the United States, the authors argue, the country must sequence the genome “of about 3 to 5 percent of cases—currently as many as 50,000 viruses a week.” This may not sound like it would be particularly helpful in directly combatting the pandemic, but it leads into the second item on the authors’ wish list. That being… more vaccines.

“[W]e must develop multivalent vaccines — that is, vaccines that can immunize against more than one strain of the same disease. The annual flu vaccine is multivalent against three or four different influenza viruses. We will need the same for covid-19, which the administration is also working on.”

Wait, so “vaccines alone won’t solve the pandemic” but what will solve the pandemic is more vaccines? I’m all in favor of vaccines, for COVID and any other disease. But this seems like a very flawed train of thought. Americans have already been more than patient (some would argue far too patient) in waiting for Operation Warp Speed to come to a successful conclusion.

Now that it has, demanding that Americans continue to live in a constant state of fear, dependent on the government until several more vaccines are developed and administered, is intolerable. The authors note that our yearly flu shots are multivalent vaccines. All well and good, but people still get the flu because it is impossible to vaccinate for every strain of the flu virus.

One can scarcely imagine the hubris behind a demand that we wait to resume our normal lives until a vaccine is available to combat every single strain of COVID. That won’t happen. Such a demand is merely a tool to inculcate fear and consolidate control over ever increasing portions of the lives and livelihoods of ordinary Americans.

It is also ironic that Biden’s COVID-19 advisors demand “greater focus on developing scalable treatments to prevent severe covid-19, shorten the duration of the disease and reduce deaths.” The media spent a great deal of time and effort attempting to debunk President Donald Trump’s claims that hydroxychloroquine may be helpful in combatting the disease. The science on the matter continues to remain unsettled, however, as a positive report on the treatment from out of Hackensack Meridian Health shows.

All of this is also overshadowed by the fact that there does not seem to be any correlation between the actions taken by government and the actual spread of COVID-19. At time of writing, Mayo Clinic data showed that South Dakota, much maligned for staying mostly open and free during the pandemic, had 16 new cases daily per 100,000 residents. Neighboring Minnesota, where Governor Tim Walz saw articles of impeachment introduced against him thanks to his endless executive orders, also has 16 new cases daily per 100,000 residents. Government has not solved COVID in Minnesota, and the state also lags behind South Dakota in administering COVID-19 vaccines.

The pandemic has been the single most powerful tool big government supporters have ever had to push their agenda and reshape America. The ability to shut down large sectors of the economy, rule by diktat rather than by legislation, and ignore the will of the people while hiding behind a lie of working for the “greater good” are powerful tools. Those in charge are loath to give them up while their transformation remains merely in progress, rather than complete.

Leaked Letter: Global Transport Body Pushing Standardised Vaccine Passport on EU

by Steve Watson
February 25th 2021, 4:55 am

Link: https://www.infowars.com/posts/leak...-pushing-standardised-vaccine-passport-on-eu/

IATA lobbying for “governments and authorities" to accept their vaccine passport framework

A leaked internal document reveals that the world’s largest air transport body is imploring the EU to adopt its vaccine passport system as standard across the entire 27 nation bloc, to ensure “evidence-based border restrictions” are implemented.

EURACTIV reports that the letter was sent to EU leaders by The International Air Transport Association (IATA), which has been pushing its vaccine statues based Travel Pass framework for some time now.

The letter, signed by IATA vice-president for Europe Rafael Schvartzman and addressed to European Council president Charles Michel, urges EU countries to “agree on the crucial role of secure digital solutions, such as the IATA Travel Pass”.

the letter argues that the travel pass will provide “governments and authorities – but also passengers and crew – with the needed confidence in each passengers’ health status”.

“This digital solution can verify the applicable legal framework at departure and arrival jurisdictions… ensuring that the traveller knows all the measures and conditions applicable,” the letter further reads.

It further suggests that countries need to agree to a “sane” approach to lifting travel restrictions, ensuring an “attainable balance between risk and people/economies’ financial sustainability.”

Guest Host Jon Rappoport of http://nomorefakenews.com breaks down the fraudulent Covid tests and how to fight back against their use to lockdown society.

The leaked letter was obtained just hours before the EU is set to debate the vaccine passport system, with countries including Italy, Greece, Spain, and Portugal acting as the most aggressive proponents for a standardised vaccine passport system to kickstart tourism again.

Vaccine passports have previously been touted by the EU, with officials suggesting back in April that visa applicants would also be required to be vaccinated.

EU countries including Spain, Estonia, Iceland, Denmark, Poland, and Belgium have all indicated that they are open to some form of vaccine passports, as well as sharing the data across borders.

A slew of other countries have also now indicated that they will introduce vaccination passports, despite concerns that it will create a two-tear society of those who have and have not been vaccinated.

After months of denying there are any plans to introduce so called vaccine passports, the British government has also now admitted that not only is it considering introducing them for travel, but also merely to gain access to events spaces, and even shops and pubs.

Prime Minister Boris Johnson is seemingly resistant to introducing the scheme, but is being hounded by proponents to adopt it, and has promised a review.

Former Prime Minister, and arch globalist, Tony Blair has renewed his push for Britain to implement a standardised global vaccine passport while the country has the G7 Presidency.

Writing in the Mail on Sunday, Blair urged “We should plan for an agreed ‘passport’ now. The arguments against it really don’t add up.”

“The world is moving in this direction,” Blair added, saying that he “can’t see another way of this.”

“With my team at the Institute for Global Change, I have looked at this from every angle and come to this conclusion: there is no prospect of a return to anything like normal without enabling people to show their Covid status, whether that means they have been vaccinated or recently tested,” Blair proclaimed.

Blair also revealed that he is working with the World Economic Forum on its CommonPass initiative, a COVID passport scheme being pushed by a coalition of Big Tech companies, and that has received funding from the Rockefeller Foundation. The CommonPass is already being implemented by all three major airline alliances.

Blair previously declared that vaccine passports are inevitable and that “It’s going to be a new world altogether.”
 
Investigation: MP’s and SAGE Heavily Invested In Vaccine Industry

Posted by Robert Redfern | Feb 16, 2021 | 

 
Investigation: MP’s and SAGE Heavily Invested In Vaccine Industry

The UK Government is on a mission to vaccinate the entire population of the UK with an experimental gene therapy. Their supposed reasoning is to protect us all against a “deadly” virus. But that just isn’t the case, the resulting disease statistically kills only 0.2% of those it infects and the majority of those deaths are aged over 85 and have underlying health conditions.

So the question remains, ‘Why does the Government and it’s scientific advisors so desperately want to vaccinate every man, woman and child in the United Kingdom?’.

Well ‘The Daily Expose’ investigated by following the money, and this is what we found…

In April 2020, the ‘Chief Scientific Advisor’ to the UK Government – Sir Patrick Vallance was placed in charge of the new ‘Vaccine Taskforce’. The aim of this taskforce was to “drive forward, expedite and co-ordinate efforts to research and then produce a coronavirus vaccine.”

So isn’t it interesting how by July 2020 the UK Government signed a contract with GlaxoSmithKline to secure 60 million doses of an untested, experimental “vaccine” treatment that was still being developed to combat SARS-CoV-2? Interesting because the chief scientific advisor and head of the ‘Vaccine Taskforce’ has £600,000 worth of shares in the pharmaceutical giant, GlaxoSmithKline.

Sir Patrick, who has had huge influence in dictating the Government’s response to the alleged SARS-CoV-2 pandemic, has over 43,111 shares in the company. But the conflict of interest doesn’t end there. Sir Patrick Vallance used to be the president of GlaxoSmithKline.

He joined the company in May 2006 as ‘Head of Drug Discovery’, going on to become Senior Vice President of Medicines Discovery and Development, before finally becoming President in 2006.

When the pompous Health Secretary, Matt Hancock found out about this he said: “Well, I didn’t know about it until I read it in the newspapers.” Pushed on whether he thought he should have been informed as Health Secretary, he replied: “No, not particularly”.

Sir Patrick Vallance

Just recently, the Deputy Chief Medical Officer for England – Jonathan Van Tam said that it was “perfectly possible” a “CV” vaccine could be licensed for children by the end of the year. Stating that he believes “most of the major manufacturers are beginning to turn their attention “to licensing vaccines for under-18’s”.

But we’ve been repeatedly told that children are at no risk to the CV-19 disease, so why on earth do we need to vaccinate them?

Well, Professor Van Tam’s career history can possibly clarify why he is so eager to see children vaccinated against a disease they supposedly don’t suffer from.

Van Tam joined the pharmaceutical industry in 1997 as an associate director at SmithKline Beecham. He then went on to become Head of Medical Affairs at Roche in April 2001, before joining Aventis Pasteur MSD in February 2002 as the UK medical director.

In 2010 he became an advisor to the World Health Organisation, during the over-exaggerated H5N1 influenza pandemic. His advice was to roll out a mass vaccination programme to combat the H5N1 influenza virus, and that advice was followed. But guess who manufactured the H5N1 influenza vaccines and made billions of pounds? SmithKline Beecham and Roche, two pharmaceutical giants that Van Tam worked for.

So do you think Van Tam wants to vaccinate children for the good of their health? Against a disease we’ve been told they don’t suffer from. Or do you think he wants to vaccinate children in order to make billions for the companies he serves?

Professor Jonathan Van Tam

That’s two of the main influencers on UK Government policy so far who have major ties to the pharmaceutical giants, with both Vallance and Van Tam having ties to GlaxoSmithKline, and Van Tam also have ties to pharmaceutical company ‘Roche’. Well, there’s another man who has had great influence on the Government’s “CV” strategy, and he also has major shares in ‘Roche’.

His name is Sir John Irving Bell, and he is a Canadian immunologist and geneticist. Sir Bell also had a role in the ‘Vaccine Taskforce’ alongside Sir Patrick, but there’s another role he held that is of particular interest to our investigation.

Sir John Irving Bell has worked as an adviser to the Department of Health and Social Care since 2017, and headed the ‘National CV Testing Scientific Advisor Panel. He also chaired the Government’s new test approvals group, which assesses virus diagnostic tests. One of the tests assessed and approved, back in May 2020, was an antibody test. The manufacturer of this antibody test being the pharmaceutical giant ‘Roche’. So it must just be a coincidence that Professor Van Tam has ties to the firm, and Sir John Irving Bell has shares amounting to £773,000 in Roche?

£13.5 million of the British taxpayer’s money was spent on these antibody tests but Public Health England later declared they were “unreliable”.

Sir John Irving Bell

Which brings us to the elected members of parliament who are voted in to serve the people of the United Kingdom. The ones who have had the final say on the policy to combat the alleged CV-19 pandemic.

The Health Secretary – Matt Hancock received a £10,000 donation for his leadership campaign in 2019 from Wol Kolade, the head of Livingbridge private equity firm. This firm owns Vanguard Healthcare, which provides mobile facilities such as operating theaters and wards. We wonder if Vanguard had anything to do with the Nightingale hospitals that were erected, never used and dismantled at a cost of half-a-billion pounds?

Mr Hancock has also awarded a contract to the tune of £5.5 million of taxpayer’s money to a family friend for the provision of mobile testing units. The contract was awarded to EMS Healthcare, which is run by an Iain Johnston – the former business partner of Shirley and Robert Carter, Hancock’s mother and stepfather.

Matt Hancock pictured with Wendy Maisey

Education secretary Gavin Williamson received £3000 from St Philips Care Caledonia Ltd in November 2019, while Waveney MP Peter Aldous registered a donation of £2000 to the General Election Fighting Fund from Althea Healthcare Properties.

Mike Freer, MP for Finchley and Golders Green, registered a £10,000 donation in January from Advinia Health Care, which operates care homes.

Steve Brine, MP for Winchester, who is listed as an event speaker for Sigma pharmaceuticals company, receiving £1667 a month for up to 16 hours of “speeches, networking and Q&A sessions”. He is also a strategic adviser to Remedium Partners, a healthcare recruitment firm, working on an “ad-hoc basis” at a rate of £800 a day. Brine states in the register he consulted ACoBA about both of the appointments.

Finally, we come to the Vaccine Deployment Minister, Nadhim Zahawi. Mr Zahawi’s wife, Lana Saib is the owner and director of ‘Warren Medical Limited’, which was incorporated under the name ‘Zahawi Warren Limited’ on the 10th June 2020. The company has another two directors named Ahmad Shanshal and Jaafar Shanshal – who are the sons of Nadhim Zahawi. It is not clear what this newly formed company currently does in the healthcare sector but we’re sure the vaccine rollout will have something to do with it.

Nadhim Zawahi

We could go on forever as the corruption doesn’t end there. But perhaps we’ll save Professors Neil Ferguson and Chris Whitty for another day.

The question was ‘Why does the Government and it’s scientific advisors so desperately want to vaccinate every man, woman and child in the United Kingdom?’.

We think we’ve just answered it for you.
 
CNN Doctor Says Americans Should Mask Up & Social Distance Every Winter To Beat Flu

by Paul Joseph Watson
March 4th 2021, 9:34 am

Link: https://www.infowars.com/posts/cnn-...-up-social-distance-every-winter-to-beat-flu/

Face coverings are here to stay.

Dr. Paul Offit, a pediatrician who regularly appears on CNN, says Americans should wear masks and socially distance every winter in order to reduce flu hospitalizations and deaths.

“If we mask and social distance every winter, we will see a dramatic reduction in the flu, which usually causes hundreds of thousands of hospitalizations and tens of thousands of deaths,” Offit told the network.

As we previously highlighted, flu cases have virtually disappeared since the start of the coronavirus pandemic, with health authorities in England announcing that not a single case of influenza has been detected this year.

However, according to epidemiologist Knut Wittkowski, this is likely due to the fact that many flu infections are being falsely counted as COVID-19 cases.

Last month, Dr. Fauci also said that it’s to be expected Americans will be wearing masks for the rest of this year and into 2022.

A senior U.S. Army official also said that mask wearing and social distancing will become permanent, while CNN’s international security editor Nick Paton Walsh asserted that the mandatory wearing of masks will become “permanent,” “just part of life,” and that the public would need to “come to terms with it.”

Other prominent individuals, such as the World Economic Forum’s Klaus Schwab, have asserted that the world will “never” return to normal after the COVID pandemic.

“There will likely be more voluntary masking after the COVID pandemic has receded, especially during flu season,” writes Evan James. “But it’d be intolerable to expect to live in a “new normal” where masks and social distancing become a routine tool of government control, or where choosing not to mask becomes a cause for social ostracism.”
 
Exclusive: Regular booster vaccines are the future in battle with COVID-19 virus, top genome expert says

CAMBRIDGE, England (Reuters) - Regular booster vaccines against the novel coronavirus will be needed because of mutations that make it more transmissible and better able to evade human immunity, the head of Britain’s effort to sequence the virus’s genomes told Reuters.

COVID-19 booster vaccines are the 'future'

The novel coronavirus, which has killed 2.65 million people globally since it emerged in China in late 2019, mutates around once every two weeks, slower than influenza or HIV, but enough to require tweaks to vaccines.

Sharon Peacock, who heads COVID-19 Genomics UK (COG-UK) which has sequenced nearly half of all the novel coronavirus genomes so far mapped globally, said international cooperation was needed in the “cat and mouse” battle with the virus.

“We have to appreciate that we were always going to have to have booster doses; immunity to coronavirus doesn’t last forever,” Peacock told Reuters at the non-profit Wellcome Sanger Institute’s 55-acre campus outside Cambridge.

“We already are tweaking the vaccines to deal with what the virus is doing in terms of evolution - so there are variants arising that have a combination of increased transmissibility and an ability to partially evade our immune response,” she said.

Peacock said she was confident regular booster shots - such as for influenza - would be needed to deal with future variants but that the speed of vaccine innovation meant those shots could be developed at pace and rolled out to the population.

COG-UK was set up by Peacock, a professor at Cambridge, exactly a year ago with the help of the British’s government’s chief scientific adviser, Patrick Vallance, as the virus spread across the globe to Britain.

The consortium of public health and academic institutions is now the world’s deepest pool of knowledge about the virus’s genetics: At sites across Britain, it has sequenced 349,205 genomes of the virus out of a global effort of around 778,000 genomes.

On the intellectual frontline at the Wellcome Sanger Institute, hundreds of scientists - many with PhDs, many working on a voluntary basis and some listening to heavy metal or electronic beats - work seven days a week to map the virus’s growing family tree for patterns of concern.

Wellcome Sanger Institute has sequenced over half of the UK total sequenced genomes of the virus after processing 19 million samples from PCR tests in a year. COG-UK is sequencing around 30,000 genomes per week - more than the UK used to do in a year.

MUTATION LEADERBOARD

Three main coronavirus variants - which were first identified in Britain (known as B.1.1.7), Brazil (known as P1)and South Africa (known as B.1.351) - are under particular scrutiny.

Peacock said she was most worried about B.1.351.

“It is more transmissible, but it also has a change in a gene mutation, which we refer to as E484K, which is associated with reduced immunity - so our immunity is reduced against that virus,” Peacock said.

With 120 million cases of COVID-19 around the world, it is getting hard to keep track of all the alphabet soup of variants, so Peacock’s teams are thinking in terms of “constellations of mutations”.

“So a constellation of mutations would be like a leaderboard if you like - which mutations in the genome that we’re particularly concerned about, the E484K is must be one of the top of the leaderboard,” she said.

“So we’re developing our thinking around that leaderboard to think, regardless of the background and lineage, about what mutations or constellation of mutations are going to be important biologically and different combinations that may have slightly different biological effects.”

Peacock, though, warned of humility in the face of a virus that has brought so much death and economic destruction.

“One of the things that the virus has taught me is that I can be wrong quite regularly - I have to be quite humble in the face of a virus that we know very little about still,” she said.

“There may be a variant out there that we haven’t even discovered yet.”

There will, though, be future pandemics.

“I think its inevitable that we will have another virus emerge that is of concern. What I hope is that having learned what we have in this global pandemic, that we will be better prepared to detect it and contain it.”
 
Covid: Masks and social distancing 'could last years'

People may need to wear face coverings and socially distance for several years until we return to normality, a leading epidemiologist has predicted.

Mary Ramsay, the head of immunisation at Public Health England, said basic measures could be in place until other countries successfully roll out jabs.

She also said a return of big spectator events required careful monitoring and clear instructions about staying safe.

The defence secretary has not ruled out the foreign holiday ban being extended.

Ben Wallace told BBC One's Andrew Marr Show that booking a break abroad now would be "premature" and "potentially risky".

The UK set another record for the number of coronavirus vaccine doses given in a single day on Saturday, with 873,784 jabs.

What are the key dates for lifting lockdown?
When can we stop wearing masks and face coverings?
How Covid has changed where we want to live

Dr Ramsay said restrictions such as face coverings in crowded places and social distancing had become accepted by many and still allowed the economy to function.

She said "people have got used to those lower-level restrictions now, and people can live with them, and the economy can still go on with those less severe restrictions in place".

"So I think certainly for a few years, at least until other parts of the world are as well vaccinated as we are, and the numbers have come down everywhere, that is when we may be able to go very gradually back to a more normal situation," she added.

Warning it was "very important that we do not relax too quickly", Dr Ramsay said any circulating virus would inevitably pick on those who are vulnerable.

"We have to look very carefully before any of these restrictions are lifted," she said.

Prof Chris Whitty, the UK government's chief medical adviser, told MPs earlier this month that it was hoped "simple interventions like washing hands, face masks where appropriate, test-and-trace, and above all vaccines" would keep the virus controlled beyond the summer.

Sir Patrick Vallance, the chief scientific adviser, has also said face masks could be needed in certain situations if the number of infections rises in the winter, but that it was possible people will naturally behave in a way that promotes social distancing.

A group of government scientific advisers said last month that "maintaining a baseline of policies which reduce transmission" will be necessary for some time to come.

Those experts said these could include continuing test-and-trace, self-isolation, and public messaging that encourages "voluntary actions to reduce risks".

The government's roadmap for easing lockdown in England states all legal limits on social contact will be removed no earlier than 21 June.

In a second release of restrictions on Monday 29 March, people will be able to mix outdoors with up to six others in a return to the so-called "rule of six".

Outdoor sport and leisure facilities can also reopen, organised outdoor sports are allowed once more, and outdoor parent and child groups with up to 15 parents can meet.

In Scotland, communal worship resumes on 26 March. In Wales, supermarkets can sell non-essential items from Monday, and garden centres can open. And in Northern Ireland, six people from two households can meet in private gardens from 1 April.

The government established a review of measures to control coronavirus from the summer onwards last month.

Meanwhile, Sir Paul Nurse, chief executive of the Francis Crick Institute, has told BBC Radio 4's The World This Weekend there should be a rapid investigation into what happened during the first months of the pandemic.

He said he believed there was a "slowness in political response - almost casual really - suggesting a failure of scientific and medical advice reaching political power".

"We should have a rapid investigation of the first part of the pandemic - January to June - so we can learn the lessons and be bettered prepared for the future," he said.

Prof Jonathan Van-Tam, England's deputy chief medical officer, suggested last week that a public inquiry into the pandemic now would be an unwelcome distraction to those tasked with controlling the virus.

repeat profits
Pfizer is pinning a lot of hope on its COVID-19 vaccine, and they are already targeting younger people with an eye on increasing their profits.

Earlier this week, they released a strong earnings report that exceeded the already optimistic projections from Wall Street. They also announced that they are on the verge of gaining regulatory approval to give their vaccine to minors aged 12 to 15 in the U.S. This coincides with the Biden Administration’s increasing pressure on states to raise their vaccination numbers.

Media reports have also indicated that Pfizer is looking to gain approval to use the vaccine on children aged 2 to 11 in the U.S. and Europe. It is believed that this approval could come in September, despite the fact that there have been no studies carried out into the long-term effects of the vaccines on either adults or children.

Pfizer CEO Albert Borland stated in a call with reporters and analysts that the pharmaceutical firm is in discussions with what he termed “basically all the governments of the world” to provide COVID-19 vaccines and booster shots through the year 2024.

Indeed, they have already laid the groundwork for a steady stream of revenue by telling the public that they will likely need at least one additional shot a year after their second dose. He also mentioned that people around the world may end up needing yearly shots, much like the flu shot, which would help Pfizer to grow its bottom line and shift COVID-19 vaccines from an emergency measure to a permanent and highly profitable line of business.

Pfizer has said that they expect sales of their vaccines to reach $26 million by year’s end. This would make the shot their top-selling pharmaceutical product, an honor that currently goes to the rheumatoid arthritis drug Humira. In addition, they are planning to use the mRNA technology behind the COVID-19 vaccine for other types of vaccines and therapies. They are already trying to develop seasonal flu shots based on the RNA lipid nanoparticle technology.

In addition, they are exploring making COVID-19 vaccines more durable by finding ways that doses can be stored at the temperatures seen in a standard refrigerator, which is something that could raise demand for the jabs in poorer countries. Either way, however, Bourla is expecting the vaccines to have a “durable demand”.

Business is booming for Pfizer thanks to coronavirus

The virus is working out incredibly well for Pfizer, whose earnings were so strong that they also helped lift the shares of other vaccine makers around the world. For example, shares of Asian vaccine makers who had deals to distribute the Pfizer vaccines rallied this week. India’s Pfizer Ltd unit climbed 4.9 percent on Wednesday, while Cadila Healthcare and Dr. Reddy’s rose 5.9 and 2.7 percent respectively.

Once again, we see pharmaceutical companies raking in money at the expense of the public. Now that many of the people who were inclined to get the vaccine have already done so, they are going to start pressuring parents into having their kids vaccinated, despite the fact that children are not being hit by the virus nearly as hard as adults. They are also doing this in the absence of studies demonstrating its safety in any age group.

The truth is that no one knows yet how this vaccine can affect anyone over the long term, particularly children whose bodies are still developing. But that’s not really a big concern for Pfizer or any of the other COVID-19 vaccine makers as they have all been granted immunity from liability should their vaccines cause people harm or kill them – which they are already doing in droves.

‘Completely inappropriate’: Top scientists denounce Big Pharma for implying annual Covid booster shots are crucial

13 May, 2021 14:19

Link: https://www.rt.com/news/523702-scientist-pharma-booster-vaccines/

More than a dozen influential infectious disease and vaccine experts say the first round of jabs may offer enough protection against Covid-19, refuting Big Pharma’s claims that regular shots will “likely” be needed.

In a report on Thursday, Reuters quotes top infectious disease and vaccine-development experts as saying that the first round of inoculation with vaccines against the original SARS-CoV-2 virus and its variants may be adequate to offer enduring protection.

The scientists also expressed concern that it’s the pharmaceutical executives rather than health specialists who are shaping public expectations around booster shots.

Pfizer CEO Albert Bourla said in April that people would “likely” need a third dose of a Covid-19 vaccine within 12 months of getting fully vaccinated, adding that yearly vaccinations would possibly be necessary.

The CEO of American vaccine manufacturer Moderna, Stephane Bancel, also said this week that a booster shot might be needed as early as this autumn.

“There is zero, and I mean zero, evidence to suggest that that is the case,” Dr. Tom Frieden, former director of the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, told Reuters. Frieden now leads the global public health initiative Resolve to Save Lives. He went on to say that it was “completely inappropriate” to state that people would need an annual booster, “because we have no idea what the likelihood of that is.”

The World Health Organization has expressed a similar view. Kate O’Brien, director of the WHO’s Department of Immunization, Vaccines and Biologicals, told the outlet that there was no data yet available “that would inform a decision about whether or not booster doses are needed.” She added that the WHO was forming a panel of experts to assess vaccine efficacy data and to recommend changes to vaccination programs if necessary.

Pfizer responded to the criticism, saying it expected that the boosters would be necessary “while the virus was still circulating widely” – a situation that could change once the pandemic is brought under control.

The group of experts has also expressed concern that wealthy nations rushing to get booster shots as early as this year would push poorer nations farther back along the queue, as they are already struggling to buy doses for their first round of jabs.

The UN reported in April that low-income countries had received just 0.2% of all Covid-19 shots given to date.

Global spending on Covid-19 vaccines and booster shots could total $157 billion through 2025, says the US health-data firm IQVIA Holdings. Moderna, for example, has set a goal to produce three billion doses of vaccine by next year.

Ultimately, decisions on whether booster shots will be necessary “will best be made by public health experts, rather than CEOs of a company who may benefit financially,” said Dr. Monica Gandhi, an infectious diseases doctor at the University of California, San Francisco.
 
SOARING PROFITS: COVID-19 Vaccine Mania Produces 9 New Big Pharma Billionaires

Little-known pharmaceutical companies are producing new billionaires at an alarming rate after creating COVID-19 vaccines.

Since the U.S. government – and many others – began funding the creation of often-experimental and controversial COVID-19 vaccines, then devoted considerable effort to making the vaccines free to consumers and readily available to all who want them, the pharmaceutical industry has minted 9 new billionaires from previously obscure companies.

Per CNN, the 9 new billionaires include CEOs and investors from Moderna, BioNTech, and China’s CanSino Biologics. Perhaps the most unexpected change in financial situations comes from the CEO of Moderna, Stéphane Bance, and the company’s early investors. Prior to its mRNA COVID-19 vaccine, Moderna had never received FDA approval or authorization for any of its drugs. Around the time the Moderna COVID-19 vaccine was approved for emergency use, MarketWatch reported that Moderna “that Moderna “has seen its market capitalization increase to about $54.3 billion in recent trading from just $6.6 billion at the end of 2019, according to FactSet data. In comparison, Pfizer’s market cap was $211.1 billion.”

Similar is the story of BioNTech CEO Ugur Sahin and the company’s many investors. Prior to its role in the creation of the BioNTech Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine, BioNTech was described as “a relatively little-known biotechnology company” created “by husband and wife duo Ugur Sahin and Ozlem Tureci” in Mainz, Germany. “Both Sahin and Tureci are the children of Turkish immigrants,” noted CNBC. “Sahin’s father worked at a Ford factory in Cologne while Tureci’s was a doctor.” BioNTech originally attempted “to develop a broader range of cancer immunotherapies” and “research centered on messenger RNA (mRNA) molecules.” With the skyrocketing price of BioNTech’s stocks, “Sahin and Tureci now rank among the 100 richest Germans.”

CanSino Biologics boasts a similarly astronomic rise to greatness, though it has more accomplishments under its belt, including a vaccine to prevent Ebola. CanSino, however, was aided by a propaganda effort commissioned by the Communist Chinese Party’s personal army: a “virologist and major general in China’s People’s Liberation Army” was “one of the first people on earth to get a COVID-19 vaccine” in February of last year. China never told the public whether it was CanSino’s vaccine injected into Dr. Chen Wei, and ultimately deleted its social media posts touting the vaccination, “But Cansino’s candidate nonetheless became one of the early favorites in the COVID-19 vaccine race.”

Why are so many people dying after taking the vaccine? Download and share this video with everyone that you know. Record and share their reaction.

Fortune spoke with Pierre Morgon, “Cansino’s senior vice president for international business,” who touted the Chinese military’s role in developing the vaccine. “The [Academy of Military Medical Sciences] is a very credible partner and very strong with science,” said Morgon, who added that the Chinese military “was more involved with the early design phase, and Cansino was more involved in the clinical development phase.”

The massive increase in fortunes of those creating the controversial vaccines has led some to push for vaccine patents to be stripped, a move strongly opposed by vaccine promoter and World Health Organization funder Bill Gates. As funding for virtually every COVID-19 vaccine came from taxpayers of one country or another – many receiving funding from U.S. taxpayers – critics question whether vaccine companies should be in the business of creating new billionaires.
 
NHS Chief Says Covid-19 Vaccine Booster Shots Will Be ‘Needed’ For The Next 10 YEARS

Chris Hopson: the NHS could keel over in 2016 | Randeep ...Source: The Guardian

Chris Hopson, chief executive of NHS Providers, said that he anticipates that the British public will have to receive Covid-19 booster shots annually for the next 10 years.

According to an NHS chief, people will need to receive annual Covid-19 vaccines for at least 10 years.

Chris Hopson, chief executive of NHS Providers, said he anticipates that Covid-19 vaccines will become a part of everyday life over the coming years.

He said: “We’re probably going to need to do these vaccinations, probably on an annual basis for, I don’t know, at least five, six, seven, eight, nine, 10 years.”

Health experts called for the government to give the NHS time to prepare a booster programme for the Covid-19 vaccines.

Alongside this, the deputy chairman of the Joint Committee on Vaccination and Immunisation has raised concerns that flu could be a “bigger problem” than Covid this winter.

The UK government is concerned whether the Covid-19 and flu vaccine rollouts can be done simultaneously and whether they will react to one another.

Matt Hancock, the government’s health secretary, said that trials are currently underway for flu and Covid vaccines to be given together.

Hancock told BBC News: “When we know the results of that (study on mixing jabs), then we will set out the full plans for the booster programme over the autumn.”

Whilst the government is pushing for booster jabs and for the whole of the UK to get vaccinated, “breakthrough cases” of Covid appear to be on the rise around the globe.

In Indonesia, over 350 doctors and medical workers have tested positive for Covid-19 despite being fully vaccinated, showing that the vaccine is completely ineffective at providing immunity to the virus.

If these “breakthrough cases” are on the rise, then what is the point of receiving a booster shot of an experimental vaccine that is not only ineffective but has caused countless severe adverse reactions, including blood clots and paralysis.

It seems fitting to “anticipate” that winter will be rough for the UK: Get ready for the government to “expect” another Covid wave to explode during the flu months…
 
Pfizer Seeks Approval for Third Vaccine Dose — 3,988 Pfizer Vaccine Deaths so far This Year …Update: CDC and FDA Rebuke Pfizer

Pfizer is planning to seek approval for a third dose of its COVID-19 vaccine for distribution.

The never-ending vaccines are here for a disease that is less lethal for those under 30-years-old than the seasonal flu.

Breitbart.com reported:

Pfizer is ready to seek U.S. authorization for a third dose of its coronavirus vaccine, outlining Thursday a top up shot within 12 months could dramatically boost immunity and counter any virus mutant.

Pfizer’s Dr. Mikael Dolsten told the Associated Press early data from the company’s booster study suggests people’s antibody levels rise five- to 10-fold after a third dose, compared to their second dose months earlier.

In April, Pfizer flagged plans to ask the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for emergency authorization of a third dose, as Breitbart News reported.

“We believe that the third dose will raise the antibody response 10- to 20- fold,” Pfizer CEO Albert Bourla said at the time, likening it to the annual flu shot.

“Every year, you need to go to get your flu vaccine,” Bourla said. “It’s going to be the same with COVID. In a year, you will have to go and get your annual shot for Covid to be protected.”

According to the VAERS government website there have been a total of 6,985 reported deaths from the COVID vaccine in the US so far this year.

There have been 3, 988 deaths in the US from the Pfizer vaccine so far this year.
 
Health Ministry Experts Panel Recommends 3rd COVID Shot for Older Israelis

Most experts on the committee argue for a COVID booster shot for Israelis 60 and above as the delta variant spreads

Experts advising the Health Ministry have recommended that older people receive a third dose of the coronavirus vaccine, though they disagree on whether the cohort should start at 60 years old, 65 or 70.

Some of the data presented at a discussion Wednesday suggested that the vaccine's effectiveness in preventing severe symptoms among 60-year-olds and above has dropped to 81 percent from 97 percent in January.

While most panel members favored a booster shot for anyone 60 or older, others suggested that the bar be raised to 65 or 70. The Health Ministry's director general, Nachman Ash, will make the final decision.

Prime Minister Naftali Bennett will meet the health minister and other experts on Thursday to discuss the health or economic implications of the said move, a statement by the prime minister's office reads.

Earlier Wednesday, experts told Haaretz that there is still not enough data on the effectiveness and safety of a third dose, but they also expressed concerns about delaying the decision.

Prof. Galia Rahav, head of the infectious disease unit at Sheba Medical Center near Tel Aviv, will head a research team looking into the move. Rahav told Haaretz that she hopes to begin testing a third dose next week.

“We're seeing a dramatic drop in the level of immunity and we know the elderly respond less to vaccines than the young, but we don’t have this data for COVID-19,” she said.

On Tuesday, Prime Minister Naftali Bennett declared that Israel was “very close” to making a decision on COVID booster shots, and on obtaining the additional doses needed to make that happen.

Bennett's remarks came two weeks after the World Health Organization and the U.S. Centers for Disease Control said there was no need at this time for a third dose, but as Israeli Health Ministry data showed a sharp decline in the vaccine's effectiveness against infection and a slight decline in preventing severe illness.
 
Moderna just declared its own vaccines are failing; now it says everyone needs a third “booster” shot before winter

Friday, August 06, 2021 by: Ethan Huff

Link: https://www.naturalnews.com/2021-08-06-moderna-declared-vaccines-failing-promotes-booster-shot.html

(Natural News) The two-dose Wuhan coronavirus (Covid-19) vaccine from Moderna is failing to protect recipients against Chinese Germs, which is why the company is now insisting that everyone get a third “booster” shot before Joe Biden’s “dark winter” arrives.

Blaming the “delta variant” for the failure of its injections, Moderna explained in a company statement that its “updated Covid-19 perspective and strategy” is to push new booster shots that perhaps will help vaccinated people to stop getting sick and dying from the first two shots.

“We believe that increased force of infection resulting from Delta, non-pharmaceutical intervention (NPI) fatigue, and seasonal effects (moving indoors) will lead to an increase of breakthrough infections in vaccinated individuals,” Moderna now insists.

“While we see durable Phase 3 efficacy through 6 months, we expect neutralizing titers will continue to wane and eventually impact vaccine efficacy.”

In other words, Moderna’s experimental mRNA (messenger RNA) injections are quack medicine, so the company wants those who took said quack medicine to inject even more quack medicine into their bodies at “warp speed” because Moderna has an overvalued stock to maintain.

“Given this intersection, we believe dose 3 booster will likely be necessary prior to the winter season,” Moderna says.

Anyone stupid enough to take a third covid shot deserves whatever happens next

The proposed options include “a portfolio of booster candidates” in varying doses, the company says. Among these are a prototype vaccine (mRNA-1273), variant-specific booster candidates (mRNA-1273.351 & mRNA-1273.617), and a multi-valent platform (mRNA-1273.211 & mRNA-1273.213).

By making it sound all science-y and stuff, Moderna is hoping that everyone who was duped into taking its first two shots will line right up for a third, and likely a fourth, fifth, and so on for the rest of eternity.

If enough people can be duped into this, Moderna will continue to make a killing in profits while massively depopulating the planet – a win-win for the company and its stakeholders.

You can be sure that the medical fascists are waiting in eager anticipation for the rollout of this third booster shot, which will more than likely magically appear at just the right moment to give Moderna that little extra stock price boost.

To be frank, only a foolish person still believes that any of what is going on anymore is at all legitimate. The “variants” are just vaccine-induced illness, and the world can expect a whole lot more of it the more people roll up their sleeves to get injected.

Before a critical mass of people finally figures it all out, Big Pharma, the government, and the mainstream media are rushing at warp speed to strong-arm as many as possible into permanently altering their DNA and destroying their immune systems so that they have no choice but to comply with a forever string of new booster shots.

As many have been speculating, these boosters will likely be necessary in order for the vaccinated to continue living as they no longer possess any natural immunity. Thanks to the injections, people who took them are now walking spike protein factories – and will continue to be for the rest of their lives.

“Moderna has ZERO scientific evidence to support its claims,” noted one Citizen Free Press commenter about the lunacy of all this pseudoscientific nonsense.

“The covid shots are analogous to throwing gasoline on a raging fire and then pouring water on it, which will just spread it more by dispersing drops of fuel away from the fire and thus help the fire extend at a faster rate.”

Dr Fauci says the US is 'absolutely prepared' to roll out third dose of COVID-19 vaccine 'very quickly'

Link: http://www.yourdestinationnow.com/2021/08/dr-fauci-says-us-is-absolutely-prepared_16.html

August 16, 2021
  
Dr Anthony Fauci, the director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, said Sunday that the U.S. would be 'absolutely prepared' to offer a third dose of the COVID-19 vaccine 'very quickly' to the wider population if required.

Speaking amidst a rise in breakthrough cases due to the spread of the Delta variant, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) said on Thursday that individuals with immunocompromised systems—about 3 percent of U.S. adults— are authorized to get a third dose of the vaccine. That includes people who are vulnerable due to organ transplants, certain cancers, diseases or other disorders.

When asked about plans for how to distribute the booster shots, Fauci told CBS's Margaret Brennan on Face the Nation on Sunday that immunocompromised individuals can 'get their boosts literally right now.'

'If it turns out as the data comes in, we see we do need to give an additional dose to people in nursing homes or people who are elderly, we will be absolutely prepared to do that very quickly,' Fauci said, without offering a deadline for the evaluation. 'We are planning for and looking ahead.'

Asked about the timeline for the rest of the population, Fauci added federal health officials are 'looking at it on a daily and weekly basis in cohorts, not only in the U.S. but in other countries, to determine if, when and to whom we should be giving this.'

Dr. Fauci said Sunday that the U.S. has maintained capacity to offer a third dose of the COVID-19 vaccine 'very quickly' to the wider population if required

The third shot is not currently considered a booster, but rather an additional dose for people who are unable to develop sufficient immunity from the first two shots.

Meanwhile, several states and counties—including Washington state, Los Angeles County and New Jersey—have rolled out a third dose of the Pfizer or Moderna vaccine to individuals with weakened immune systems.

They have done so to offer further protection from the highly contagious Delta variant, which has caused COVID-19 cases and hospitalizations to surge in most parts of the country.

Washington State Department of Health officials said that some immunocompromised individuals might not build up the same level of immunity compared to those who aren't immunocompromised. They believe that a third dose could help them develop an extra layer of protection, according to compounded data.

Dr. Francis Collins, director of the National Institutes of Health, told Fox New Sunday that officials will look at case data over the 'next couple of weeks' to evaluate whether to offer a third dose to the wider population in the second half of 2021.

Dr. Francis Collins told Fox News Sundays that officials would need to decide over time if Americans would need a third jab by the end of the year

If researchers determine that the efficacy of vaccines decline 'over months,' Collins said the booster shots 'may be beginning first with health care providers, as well as people in nursing homes, and then gradually move forward' to other groups including elderly individuals and nursing homes.

However, Dr Fauci has dismissed a preliminary study whose findings suggest a Moderna shot is more effective at preventing a COVID Delta infection than a Pfizer one.

Asked about the study - done by biotech firm nfrence, which is based at the prestigious Mayo Clinic and Cambridge, Massachusetts, the White House COVID tsar told Margaret Brennan on Face The Nation on Sunday: 'That study … is a pre-print study, it hasn't been fully peer-reviewed.'

He added: 'I don't doubt what they're seeing, but there are a lot of confounding variables in there, about when one was started, the relative amount of people in that cohort who were delta vs alpha – right now, if we get boosters … it's clear we want to make sure we get people, if possible, to get the boost from the original vaccine.'

The study was shared on medrvix last week - a site which publishes preliminary findings, before they have been peer-reviewed and rubber stamped.

'If it turns out as the data comes in, we see we do need to give an additional dose to people in nursing homes or people who are elderly, we will be absolutely prepared to do that very quickly,' Fauci said

Researchers from the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minnesota, found that the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine - the most commonly used shot in the U.S. - was only 42 percent effective against infection, while the Moderna vaccine was only 76 percent effective in July.

For the study, published on pre-printer server medRxiv.org - meaning it has not yet been peer review - the team gathered data on more than 25,000 Minnesotans from January to July.

While the vaccines remained about as effective as advertised, around 90 percent, for the first six months of the year, their effectiveness began to dip in June.

Effectiveness of the Moderna (yellow) and Pfizer (blue) COVID-19 vaccines began to drop in June and July as the 'Delta' variant became more prevalent. Moderna had an effectiveness of 76%, while Pfizer's vaccine was 42% effective.

Effectiveness of the Moderna (yellow) and Pfizer (blue) COVID-19 vaccines began to drop in June and July as the 'Delta' variant became more prevalent. Moderna had an effectiveness of 76%, while Pfizer's vaccine was 42% effective.

However, the efficacy largely dropped in July as the variant took hold in the United States.

The change in vaccine effectiveness corresponds with a massive surge in the prevalence of the Delta variant in Minnesota, growing from 0.7 percent prevalence in May to more than 70 percent in July.

Meanwhile, the Kent 'Alpha' variant, the previous dominant strain in the U.S., decreased in prevalence from 85 percent to 13 percent over the same time period.

Even despite a rise in breakthrough infections, the vaccines were still effective in preventing hospitalizations and severe cases from the virus, with both having a hospitalization rate of under 25 percent.

Research was complied by monitoring samples of people who contracted COVID's Delta variant - and what shot they had - in Minnesota from January to July.

Unvaccinated people also still made up a vast majority of cases.

Still, vaccinated people being able to contract the virus is a worrying prospect for health officials.

Data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention finds that vaccinated people who contract the Delta variant release similar viral loads to unvaccinated people, meaning they may be just as able to spread the virus.

While the risk is minimal, some vaccinated people still may be hospitalized, suffer long term negative effects, or even die, from COVID-19.

The Delta variant being able to bypass the existing vaccines also confirms what many feared, that the virus could potentially mutate to a point where it can bypass vaccines.

Last month, Pfizer published data showing its vaccine's efficacy drops to 86 percent after six months.

Fauci was also keep to dispute suggestions that this means Americans wanting to have a third 'booster shot' of a COVID vaccine should seek out Moderna's injection.

The highly contagious Delta variant is the dominant strain in the U.S., and there are fears that it has a unique ability to cause breakthrough cases among those who are fully vaccinated.

That said, there is also growing conversation about booster shots being made available for Americans in the near future to continue immunity against virus variants.

Last week, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) gave emergency approval to a third booster shot of COVID for people who are immunocompromised or have certain underlying conditions.

Dr Anthony Fauci, pictured in July, has urged caution on claims Moderna's COVID vaccine offers better protection against the Delta variant than Pfizers

However, despite boosters being approved, Fauci warned that same week that he feared a vaccine-resistant variant could form in the near future if the virus continued to spread.

It is a change of tone from other health officials in recent weeks, including National Institute of Health Director Dr Francis Collins, who said last week booster shots were not necessary.

Currently, there are three available Covid vaccines in the United States.

The Pfizer vaccine is the most popular, having been used 197 million times since it received FDA emergency use authorization (EUA) in December 2020.

The Moderna vaccine, which was also given EUA in December, has been used more than 140 million times.

Only one single dose vaccine is available in the U.S. - the Johnson & Johnson vaccine - which has been used 13.7 million times.

'I could see the writing on the wall, I could see the dollar signs in their eyes, of that guy that runs Pfizer.'

President Donald Trump criticized the next phase of vaccine distribution as a scheme by biotech giant Pfizer to make more money.

Discussing the topic of vaccine booster shots with Fox Business’ Maria Bartiromo, the president said it makes total financial sense for Pfizer to distribute as many jabs as possible.

“You know what? That sounds to me like a money-making operation for Pfizer,” Trump stated. “Okay?”

“Think of the money involved,” he continued.

“…Tens of billions of those, how good a business is that?”

“If you’re a pure businessman, you’ll say, ‘You know what let’s give them another shot.’ That’s another ten billion dollars of money coming in.”

“The whole thing is just crazy.”

Trump remarked that when the vaccines were developed, he’d never even thought of a possible need for booster shots.

“You wouldn’t think you would need a booster. You know when these first came out they were good for life. Then they were good for a year or two.”

“And I could see the writing on the wall, I could see the dollar signs in their eyes, of that guy that runs Pfizer. You know the guy that announced the day after the election that he had the vaccine.”
 

Virologists reveal how poor man’s amino acid cure for COVID-19 would abolish need for vaccines​

Link: https://www.cracknewz.com/2021/09/virologists-reveal-how-poor-mans-amino.html

Move over hydroxychloroquine and ivermectin, two widely extolled prescription medicines used to treat COVID-19 viral infections. A natural cure for COVID-19 that is widely available and affordable for even the poorest of people on the planet has been confirmed by a team of virologists who have spent a lifetime studying the underlying causes of viral infections.

Backed by decades of research and safety data for herpes-family viruses, U.S.-based researchers at Bio-Virus Research Inc, Reno, Nevada, report on the successful treatment of the first 30 frontline doctors and nurses and a thousand-plus patients given the amino acid lysine to prevent and even abolish COVID-19 coronavirus infections at a clinic in the Dominican Republic. Astonishingly, symptoms of COVID-19 are reported to have dissipated within hours of this natural treatment.
The medical staff at a clinic in the Dominican Republic was coming down with two cases of coronavirus per month before lysine therapy was instituted.
The virologists, Drs. Christopher Kagan, Bo Karlicki and Alexander Chaihorsky, strongly suggested the front-line healthcare workers embark on a daily regimen of lysine therapy due to daily exposure to the virus. Their ground-breaking report is published online at ResearchGate.net.
Arginine/lysine balance
Lysine therapy interrupts the replication of viruses, including COVID-19 coronavirus, by countering arginine, an amino acid that fosters the eruption of dormant viruses. Lysine has been safely used for decades to quell herpes virus outbreaks that cause cold sores on the lips (herpes labialis), a treatment pioneered by one of the Bio-Virus Research team members in 1974.
Lysine is available in foods and in concentrated form in inexpensive dietary supplements (250 500-milligram lysine tablets can be purchased for under $5 US or 2-cents per tablet), making affordable lysine therapy possible.
Lysine/arginine imbalance would explain why patients who have been infected with COVID-19 have recurrent infections, even after vaccination.
Lysine Rx in Dominican Republic
The daily therapeutic supplement regimen for the medical staff in the Dominican Republic consisted of 2000 milligrams of lysine capsules along with restricted dietary consumption of arginine-rich foods such as nuts, chocolate, orange juice, pumpkin, sesame seeds, wheat germ.
The Bio-Virus Research team found doses of supplemental lysine up to 4000 milligrams to be safe and effective.
Foods that have a high ratio of lysine over arginine such as eggs, tofu, fish (not raw), sardines, cheese, meats such as pork, poultry and red meat, and yogurt) provide a high ratio of lysine over arginine, thus blocking replication of all coronaviruses including COVID-19.
According to the virologists who were interviewed by this reporter, over 1000 patients have now been successfully treated with surprisingly rapid dissolution of symptoms and return to health. Even severely infected COVID-19 patients have been able to come off the ventilator with lysine therapy, say doctors.
Third-party validation for lysine therapy
Writing in the International Journal of Infectious Diseases another research team based in New York and Texas reports that arginine depletion is a strategy to quell both coronaviruses and other herpes family viruses.
In 2016 researchers documented that lysine impairs the growth of coronaviruses in a lab dish.
The Bio-Virus Research team are not loners nor out on a scientific limb. A report, published in the Journal of Antivirals & Antiretrovirals, is what prompted to the current discovery that was put into clinical practice in the Dominican Republic. The science was in place prior to the announcement a mutated coronavirus was sweeping the globe which no one had immunity towards.
Dietary intake
The Recommended Daily dietary intake of lysine is 2660 milligrams for a 154-lb (70 kilogram) adult; 3640 milligrams during pregnancy.
Dietary intake of lysine in western populations ranges from 40-180 milligrams per day per kilogram (2.2 lbs.) of body weight, or 2800-12,600 milligrams for a 154 lb. (70 kilogram) adult.
It is the balance of arginine to lysine that controls the eruption of dormant viruses in the body. The average intake of arginine is estimated to be 4000-6000 milligrams per day.
Other health benefits
Supplemental lysine also has other health benefits. Lysine increases absorption of calcium, relieves bouts of anxiety, promotes wound healing, and is helpful for other conditions. Cholesterol is deposited in binding sites within coronary arteries. When lysine (and vitamin C) occupy those binding sites, cholesterol is not deposited in arteries.
Prevalence of herpes viral infections
Worldwide many billions of people harbor dormant herpes viruses that erupt into disease from time to time. In 2016 an estimated 3.7 billion people had herpes simplex virus infection– around 66.6% of the world’s population aged 0 to 49.
Availability of lysine
Lysine is largely produced by the tons for animal feedstuffs. Roughly 2,200,000 tons of lysine are produced annually. There is no shortage.
Billions may benefit
The most frequent medical application of lysine therapy has been the quelling of active herpes infections (on skin, lips, etc.), and eradication of Epstein-Barr infection, Bell’s palsy, etc.
Researchers bemoan the fact that lysine therapy hasn’t become a mainstay in the treatment of herpes infections that affect ~80% of the world’s population over expensive and problematic anti-viral drugs because it doesn’t generate sufficient profit to attract funding for human clinical trials. Lysine is superior to various anti-viral drugs.
If lysine lives up to its promise as a universal COVID-19 antidote for therapeutic and preventive use, unless billionaire Bill Gates buys up and mothballs all the lysine production plants in the world like he has bought off agricultural land, and bought off news media, vaccine makers and politicians, the need for vaccines will become a moot and meaningless practice for COVID-19.
Because of the long-term safety record of this dietary amino acid, the public can take lysine as a non-prescription preventive “medicine.”
Epidemiologists baffled by low rate of coronavirus infections in India
Despite its large population and poor sanitation, disease trackers are baffled by India’s low rate of coronavirus infections. Maybe it is India’s lysine-rich diet of yogurt, lamb, chicken, fish curry that protects its population from viral disease. The striking difference in the country-to-country prevalence of Herpes Simplex-2 infections (only 9.6% in South East Asian countries and 10.7% in Europe vs. 24.0% in the Americas and 43.9% in Africa) could be explained by the lysine/arginine ratio in native diets.
Treat the severely ill; skip the problematic vaccines
Vaccination is not fool proof. Vaccinated patients are testing positive for COVID-19. Doctors can choose to treat the 3 in 10,000 COVID-19 severely infected patients who are at risk for a mortal outcome with lysine rather than needlessly vaccinate billions of people. Mass vaccination would not be needed, nor would lockdowns, quarantines and questionable mass face mask use be required. The pandemic would be rapidly extinguished by a public information campaign regarding lysine-rich foods and dietary supplements. The public can take action on its own today without adverse consequences. Literally, trillions of dollars would be saved worldwide. If not for COVID-19, at least for herpes infections.
The shame is on the World Health Organization with a budget of $8.482 billion or the Centers For Disease Control with a budget of $7.875 billion that overlook safe and economical cures like lysine. This report serves as evidence the world is being gamed to plunder the masses of their health and wealth. The people of the world need to stop heeding advice from public health officials and practice preventive medicine on their own volition.
There is additional evidence that lysine also halts the growth of influenza and coxsackie viruses.

Can Breakthrough Infections Lead to Long COVID? For an Unlucky Few, Yes​

Time via Yahoo!News reported:
When health experts talk about the remarkable efficacy of COVID-19 vaccines, they typically point to their ability to prevent severe disease and death. Fully vaccinated people can still get “breakthrough” infections from the virus that causes COVID-19 — but compared to an unvaccinated person, they’re more than 10 times less likely to be hospitalized or die from their illness, according to U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) research.
But people like April Zaleski know COVID-19’s worst outcomes aren’t limited to severe disease and death, even for the fully vaccinated.

Health Workers Once Saluted as Heroes Now Get Threats​

Associated Press reported:
More than a year after U.S. healthcare workers on the front lines against COVID-19 were saluted as heroes with nightly clapping from windows and balconies, some are being issued panic buttons in case of assault and ditching their scrubs before going out in public for fear of harassment.
Across the country, doctors and nurses are dealing with hostility, threats and violence from patients angry over safety rules designed to keep the scourge from spreading.

Breakthrough COVID Infections: How Long Are Vaccinated People Contagious?​

Huff Post reported:
There has been a lot of confusion about breakthrough COVID-19 infections recently — what it means to test positive after being fully vaccinated, what the risk for developing “long COVID” is and how vaccinated people can spread the coronavirus.
But to get a solid sense of how long people with breakthrough infections are contagious, we need real-world data on transmission events, which we don’t have much of. “We don’t actually know the degree of spread from vaccinated because you really do have to do a good contract-tracing study,” Monica Gandhi, an infectious disease specialist at the University of California, San Francisco, told HuffPost.

Russia May Allow Access to Unregistered COVID Vaccines, Report Says​

Reuters reported:
Russians may soon be able to receive COVID-19 vaccines not registered in the country from clinics set up in a special economic zone, under a healthcare ministry proposal, Russian Kommersant daily reported on Thursday.
Many Western nations have not registered Russian vaccines such as Sputnik V and require visitors to have other shots that are not available to Russians, a situation that has prompted vaccine tourism.
According to the Kommersant report, the healthcare ministry has proposed allowing clinics set up in the Moscow International Medical Cluster to import vaccines made abroad, such as the Pfizer/BioNTech (PFE.N), or Moderna (MRNA.O) shots.
