Pfizer Moving to 3-Dose Trial for Kids After 2-Shot Vaccine Fails

/0 Comments/in , /by

Pfizer-BioNTech announced Friday its two-shot vaccine didn’t perform adequately in children ages 2 to 5 years old, and it will test a three-dose series for official authorization.

The pharmaceutical companies said they will expand ongoing clinical trials of their COVID-19 vaccine in children to include a third dose for participants as young as 6 months old, NPR reported. . .

The decision, the companies said, was made “following a routine review by the external independent Data Monitoring Committee,” which acts as a watchdog over the clinical trials.

They insisted, however, that no “safety concerns” were identified, and the 3 microgram doses “demonstrated a favorable safety profile in children 6 months to under 5 years of age.”

The FDA has authorized the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine only for emergency use in children aged 5 and older. Adults get 30 micrograms of the Pfizer shot per dose, and children ages 5 to 11 get 10 micrograms. In November, the FDA authorized a third booster dose for all U.S. adults.

Taylor Swift Party a COVID Super Spreader Event After 100 Test Positive

/0 Comments/in , /by

More than 100 people who attended a Taylor Swift-themed party last Friday have since tested positive for COVID-19.

The celebration of Swift’s “Red” album is now being considered a super spreader event, and even those attendees who have not yet tested positive for the coronavirus are being asked to isolate.

Swift, 32, wasn’t actually at the party — it was a gathering of fans in celebration of the re-release of her 2012 album. But the virus apparently spread quickly to the 600 people who joined.

“Anyone who attended the ‘On Repeat: Taylor Swift Red Party’” at Sydney’s Metro Theatre on “10 December is a close contact and must immediately get tested and isolate for 7 days,” a public health alert by New South Wales Health warns. At least 97 cases of COVID-19 have been connected with the party so far. “It is likely some of these cases have the Omicron variant of concern,” the alert notes.

Some who attended the affair checked in via a QR code, easing NSW Health’s ability to contact them. (Read more from “Taylor Swift Party a COVID Super Spreader Event After 100 Test Positive” HERE)

Mom Says 5-Year-Old Child Accessed Porn Website, ‘Inappropriate Content’ With School Ipad

/1 Comment/in , /by

Students at a Wisconsin school district were able to access pornography on their school’s iPads for months due to a lack of “working” filters, according to the mom of a student who accessed the material and spoke during the public comment portion of the district’s school board meeting Tuesday.

Kindergarteners at Burleigh Elementary School at Elmbrook Schools in Brookfield, Wisconsin were exposed to pornography and “other inappropriate content” on a school-issued iPad, because it had “no working filter” outside of the school environment between September 2021 and Nov. 22, 2021, mother Elizabeth Theis said during the public comment portion of the school board meeting.

The school district told the Daily Caller News Foundation that it “checked those devices and did not find any access to inappropriate content.” . . .

“So all 5k [kindergarteners] and first graders in the Elmbrook school district who brought home iPads this fall had unfiltered access to the internet,” she said.

“On one occasion this fall while at home, my five year old child on the school issued iPad, typed in searches like E, F, F, G, G, [on Google] and accessed multiple pages on a pornography website, videos on YouTube of people smoking, a Russian password hacking website and a YouTube like website with absurd, inappropriate videos from all over the world,” she added.

FDA Lifts In-Person Restrictions on Abortion Pill

/0 Comments/in , /by

The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) eased restrictions Thursday on at-home drug-induced abortions by allowing women and girls to end their pregnancies via mail-order pills without having to see an abortion provider in person.

Earlier this year, the FDA had already eased restrictions on the requirement of in-person assessment for drug-induced abortion due to the coronavirus pandemic. The abortion industry and its allies quickly readied tele-abortion services to be utilized on a permanent basis.

In April 2020, Planned Parenthood CEO Alexis McGill Johnson referred to telemedicine abortion as the “silver lining” of the coronavirus pandemic.

Johnson told Democracy Now’s Amy Goodman the fact that many states had attempted to include elective abortions among other procedures that should be temporarily banned to preserve scarce medical equipment for healthcare workers treating coronavirus patients was “unconscionable.” (Read more from “FDA Lifts In-Person Restrictions on Abortion Pill” HERE)

City to Ban Restaurants From Marketing Unhealthy Sugary Drinks to Children

/0 Comments/in , /by

The city of Chicago will ban restaurants from marketing unhealthy sugary drinks in meals for children in a bid to prevent illnesses stemming from poor eating habits.

Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot and the Chicago Department of Public Health revealed the legislation at a meeting of the City Council on Wednesday.

“Children don’t need marketing that encourages unhealthy behavior—and parents don’t need extra pressure to serve their kids unhealthy food,” said Lightfoot said in press release.

“By banning such marketing while protecting parental choice, this ordinance will help empower parents to make the right choice for their families,” she added.

The new law will not ban parents from asking for the unhealthy sugary drinks for their children at restaurants, only that the businesses won’t be able to market them to children. The law says that restaurants can only pair children’s meals with “unsweetened still or sparkling water, 100% fruit or vegetable juice, or dairy and non-dairy milks that meet certain calorie requirements.” (Read more from “City to Ban Restaurants From Marketing Unhealthy Sugary Drinks to Children” HERE)

/0 Comments/in , /by

A Fairview Elementary School teacher was arrested Monday in Columbia and charged with nine counts of aggravated sexual battery, especially aggravated sexual exploitation of a child, eight counts of rape, incest and eight counts of rape of a child.

Two victims who are minors were reported by District Attorney General Brent Cooper. Neither are students at Fairview Elementary.

According to Williamson County Schools, Jonathan Ullrich, 50, was placed on unpaid leave after his arrest. The district sent a letter to families and staff notifying them of his arrest and said Principal Dr. Tracy Bullard will communicate directly with families about classroom activities for the remainder of the semester, which ends with a half day Friday.

Ullrich was named FES Elementary School Teacher of the Year at WCS’s annual employee of the year celebration in 2020. However, he has a history of sexual harassment claims against him dating back to 2014. (Read more from “‘Teacher of the Year’ Arrested, Charged With Child Sex Crimes” HERE)

/0 Comments/in , , /by

An essential worker who was told her five-month-long cough was probably due to COVID found out the truth was much worse.

Chloe Girardier, 23, claims she was initially denied an in-person doctor’s appointment, only to later discover she had cancer. . .

She demanded a chest X-ray to discover what was causing her continuous cough.

It was then that doctor’s found a mass on Chloe’s chest measuring 4.25 inches, leading to a cancer diagnosis on December 3.

Chloe was told she had Hodgkin lymphoma, a rare cancer of the lymphatic system that causes symptoms such as a persistent cough, itchy skin, weight loss, night sweats and a fever. (Read more from “I Was Told My Chronic Cough and Weight Loss Was COVID – But the Reality Was Worse” HERE)

Democrats’ Massive Entitlement Plans Include Banning Christians From Government Childcare

/1 Comment/in , /by

Democrats’ current proposed $3.5 trillion welfare expansion would effectively ban faithful Christians from profiting from federal subsidies for separating infants and toddlers from their families.

The current text of Democrats’ massive “Build Back Better” entitlement bill contains provisions that would require religious child-care providers to disavow longstanding theology about sex in order to receive federal child-care funds under a massive new early childhood program.

“The Democrats went out of their way to make sure and prohibit religious care providers from receiving any of these funds, and unanimously rejected an amendment to allow all child-care providers to be eligible for grants, including religious providers,” said Rep. Jackie Walorski, R-Indiana, the ranking member on the House’s subcommittee on Worker and Family Support.

Democrats’ legislation would create a new federally controlled child-care entitlement available to the majority of families in the nation. The legislation authorizes up to $20 billion in the program’s first year, $30 billion in its second, $40 billion in its third, and an unlimited amount after that. The estimated cost of this program over the next ten years is $400 billion.

“Making faith-based providers of child-care and pre-kindergarten into recipients of federal financial assistance triggers federal compliance obligations and non-discrimination provisions,” note the leaders of several religious organizations in an opposition letter to Senate Democrats last week.

Unvaccinated Children Put in Front of Class to Be Ridiculed

/0 Comments/in , /by

Some schoolchildren in Germany have been asked each day to go in front of their class and state their vaccination status, resulting in applause for some and scorn for others.

The report in Germany’s leading newspaper, Die Welt, was relayed by British journalist Alex Story in a segment for the TV channel GB News.

Story said the “ritual humiliation” of unvaccinated children was one of three developments in the European nation that “should raise an alarm bell for people who are for the mandate.”

The children who are unvaccinated, he said, must explain to their classmates why they are not.

Another concerning development is the requirement of wristbands for shoppers to verify vaccination for COVID-19.
