    ^ Fact-checking the fact-check: no scientific explanation for excess deaths is tendered, simply a denial that vaccines were responsible and the add to the hilarity, the supposition that even deadlier variants of the non-existent Covid were responsible.

    Ike could have done us a favor and also warned against the Medical Industrial Complex …

    The idea that any organisation can ‘stop’ a pandemic is fundamentally flawed from the outset. There is no such thing as a ‘pandemic’ because there are no ‘diseases’ caused by ‘infectious agents’ that can be transmitted between people - or between animals and people.

    Actually, the assertion was “children and young people.” And the fact-check did not contest that excess mortality was increasing among that demographic.

    Years After Smug Anti-Ivermectin Post, FDA Admits in Court That Doctors Should Be Allowed to Prescribe It (westernjournal.com)

    After years of denigrating ivermectin as dangerous and as “horse medicine,” the U.S. Food and Drug Administration has been forced to retreat on its all-out attack on the medicine after three doctors sued the agency in federal court for impeding their right as medical providers to prescribe the medicine to their patients.

    The FDA made a key admission in court during an Tuesday proceeding in which lawyers for the doctors asked the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals whether doctors have a right to prescribe ivermectin since the FDA approved the drug for use in humans way back in 1986.

    “FDA explicitly recognizes that doctors do have the authority to prescribe ivermectin to treat COVID,” Ashley Cheung Honold, a Department of Justice lawyer representing the FDA, said on Tuesday during the oral arguments in the case, the Epoch Times reported.

    The new page also added a line at the end, saying, “Talk to your health care provider about available COVID-19 vaccines and treatment options. Your provider can help determine the best option for you, based on your health history.” It is a line that can now be construed to mean that the FDA is leaving the use of ivermectin up to your doctor. This is a line that was entirely absent in the original post.

    This about-face is just another example of how the medical elites and the federal government are quietly and slowly backing away from the extreme statements and polices floated during the worst of the pandemic years. It’s another admission that much of what Biden’s regime was telling us about COVID was simply false.

    No wonder fewer and fewer people every year trust what the government tells us, or for that matter, even trust what the “experts” say.

    This shot has done so much damage and the sick thing is…they are able to use propaganda to cover it up.

    This disease was never dangerous to a young healthy person where an experimental drug like this should have ever been pushed on the ENTIRE POPULATION! It was stupid and evil. We knew the risk groups. But so many to this day are too obtuse to recognize this. And we knew them from the very beginning.

    @oragator1 today's mini hike was part of a day trip to Bayfield, WI. This is looking down at Lake Superior, Madeline Island in the background.

    There’s been a slight uptick in covid cases in people I know. It’s been described as a bad cold to kicking my arse.

    I’ve been told a new booster will be available that includes a flu vaccine all mixed into one shot? Anyone hear if this is legit?

    There is a new booster coming out in September. The story I head made no mention of it being combined with the flu shot.

    Records Reveal Fauci Made Over $300 Million From the Covid Pandemic While Americans Suffered (townhall.com)

    According to records, the former NIH Director, Dr. Francis Collins, and former NIAID Director, Dr. Anthony Fauci, made huge profits from royalty checks during the Chinese virus-fueled pandemic. At the same time, thousands of people struggled to put food on the table.

    OpenTheBooks, a transparency organization, recently released over 1,500 unredacted records revealing the leaders of the country’s National Institutes of Health and the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases profited off the virus that killed thousands of people.

    On top of that, Fauci funded the Wuhan Institute of Virology to research the Coronavirus.

    The records show Collins and Fauci got 58 royalty payments for allowing companies to use their COVID-19 vaccines, which in return was developed with funding from U.S. taxpayers by private pharmaceutical firms.

    So, in other words, the Covid pandemic was one big ploy for the government to get massively wealthy.

    Through the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA), 56,000 transactions were recorded, totaling over $325 million banked by the “experts.”

    It was always about the money

    Glad the government and vaccine manufacturers are ignoring all the anti-vax nutjobs.
    New COVID vaccine and booster shots for this fall to be available by end of September

    Yes, researchers are working on delivering the flu vaccine and COVID vaccine in a single shot. However, I have not heard that this has made it through the FDA review process. I would think that there were will be limited trials approved for this fall and full deployment would not happen until fall of 2024. Keep in mind that there are basically 3 flu shots each year, mostly delineated by concentration for children, adults and the elderly. So, there is a lot of studying to make sure everything works well together and safely.
