Evidence Is In: COVID Lab Leak Is a Scandal of Media, Government Censorship; Biden National Security Advisor Downplays Bombshell Report

By New York Post. The Wall Street Journal reports that the Energy Department has concluded that the COVID pandemic most likely arose from a laboratory leak.

The conclusion is reportedly based on a classified intelligence report recently provided to the White House and key members of Congress. Many will be exploring why the scientific evidence of a lab leak was so slow to emerge from intelligence agencies.

However, for my part, the most alarming aspect was the censorship, not the science.

There will continue to be a debate over the origins of COVID-19, but now there will be an actual debate.

For years, the media and government allied to treat anyone raising a lab theory as one of three possibilities: conspiracy theorist or racists or racist conspiracy theorists. (Read more from “Evidence Is In: COVID Lab Leak Is a Scandal of Media, Government Censorship” HERE)

Biden National Security Advisor Downplays Bombshell Report: No ‘Definitive Answer’ on COVID Lab Leak

By Townhall. White House National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan downplayed the bombshell report by the Wall Street Journal that found the Department of Energy has concluded the COVID-19 pandemic most likely developed from a lab leak.

There is “no definitive answer,” Sullivan said when questioned on the matter during an appearance on CNN’s “State of the Union.”

“One of the things in that ‘Wall Street Journal’s report, which I can’t confirm or deny, but I will say the reference to the Department of Energy, President Biden specifically requested that the National Labs, which are part of the Department of Energy, be brought into this assessment because he wants to put every tool at use to be able to figure out what happened here,” Sullivan said. “And if we gain any further insight or information, we will share it with Congress, and we will share it with the American people. But, right now, there is not a definitive answer that has emerged from the intelligence community on this question.”

The Wall Street Journal released a report that the Energy Department, now equipped with “new intelligence,” believes the Chinese virus emerged from a lab in Wuhan. Their report coincides with the FBI, while other agencies are sticking to the narrative that the Coronavirus resulted from natural transmission.

Two U.S. Military Branches Announce More COVID Vax Reversals

Air Force Reverses ‘Adverse Actions’ Against Those Who Sought Vaccine Exemption for Religious Reasons

By Dayton Daily News. The Air Force will reverse disciplinary or “adverse” actions taken against members who had requested an exemption from the mandate to get the COVID-19 vaccine for religious reasons, the Air Force said Friday. . .

All military services have until March 17 to rescind their COVID-19 vaccination policies, according to a Pentagon memo released Friday,

The Air Force will remove “adverse information” from records of service members who sought an exemption on religious, administrative, or medical grounds and who had those actions taken against them “solely due to their refusal to take the vaccine,” the service said.

Service members do not need to initiate any actions for their records to be updated, the Air Force said. (Read more from “Air Force Reverses ‘Adverse Actions’ Against Those Who Sought Vaccine Exemption for Religious Reasons” HERE)

The Marine Corps Lifts Its Deployment COVID-19 Vaccine Requirement

By Marine Corps Times. The Marine Corps is no longer blocking Marines who are unvaccinated against COVID-19 from overseas deployments, a Corps spokesman has confirmed to Marine Corps Times.

“There are no current COVID-19 vaccine restrictions on deployments or assignments for the Marine Corps as a service,” Capt. Ryan Bruce told Marine Corps Times Wednesday. “Marines will defer to Combatant Command policies regarding deployments.”

In December 2022, Secretary of the Navy Carlos Del Toro had cautioned that repealing the mandate would create two categories of troops: those who could deploy and those who couldn’t.

But now, COVID-19 vaccination status no longer determines whether troops in the Department of the Navy can deploy. The Navy also recently scrapped its vaccination requirement for deployments, making the announcement via naval administrative message.

That NAVADMIN, which applied specifically to the Navy, acknowledged that the policies of some host countries could “create conditions-based criteria for liberty.” (Read more from “The Marine Corps Lifts Its Deployment COVID-19 Vaccine Requirement” HERE)

Doctors Sue FDA for Prohibiting Ivermectin to Treat COVID-19

A group of doctors is suing the Food and Drug Administration and the Department of Health and Human Services for their various attempts at preventing ivermectin from being prescribed to treat Covid-19. Plaintiffs Robert L. Apter, Mary Talley Bowden, and Paul E. Marik argued the FDA tried to prohibit them from prescribing the drug, even though they have successfully used it in treating patients with the coronavirus.

“The FDA generally cannot ban particular uses of human drugs once they are otherwise approved and admitted to the market, even if such use differs from the labeling — commonly referred to as ‘off-label’ use,” the lawsuit argues. “The FDA also cannot advise whether a patient should take an approved drug for a particular purpose.”

But the FDA overstepped its authority by “directing the public, including health professionals and patients, not to use ivermectin to treat COVID-19, even though the drug remains fully approved for human use,” the lawsuit continues. The aim of the suit is to set aside “any FDA actions that direct or opine on whether ivermectin is an appropriate treatment for COVID-19, declare such actions unlawful, and issue permanent injunctive relief enjoining the FDA from further engaging in such actions.”

The plaintiffs originally filed their lawsuit in June 2022 — after the FDA and corporate media spun up the narrative that ivermectin is used as a cattle dewormer and that anyone who prescribed or took the drug as a Covid treatment was an anti-science rube — but a U.S. district court denied their claim. In February 2023, the doctors appealed their case to the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals. Multiple groups have filed amicus briefs in support of the suit, including America’s Frontline Doctors and the Front Line COVID-19 Critical Care Alliance (FLCCC).

Biden Says There’s ‘a Way to Go’ on COVID Two Years Into the Pandemic

President Biden sounded shaky Monday about his administration’s ability to lead the US out of the COVID-19 pandemic and back to normal, telling a group of governors at the White House that “we got a way to go on that, in my view” as Americans grow restless with social restrictions nearly two full years into the pandemic.

The president made the comment to members of the National Governors Association while discussing how he’d like states to standardize their coronavirus policies.

“I know you spoke today with … the head of my COVID team [Jeff Zients] in here,” Biden said. “We got a way to go on that, in my view, but we’re moving. And so I think it’s all about making sure we have the same standards we’re applying across the board.”

Seconds later, Biden said the administration was “gonna try like the devil to keep schools open,” even as several districts return to virtual learning, citing a surge in cases caused by the Omicron variant.

“We do know — study after study, as all of you know and you’ve done, the great universities in your states have done them — is that, you know, losing a semester can put a kid back a year and a half,” Biden said. “And so, there’s a whole lot we can — have to do, in my view, to focus. And I think that keeping schools open is a big part of that.” (Read more from “Biden Says There’s ‘a Way to Go’ on COVID Two Years Into the Pandemic” HERE)

Study: Fully Vaccinated COVID-19 Patients With Cancer Had Super-High Mortality Rate

A new study evaluated the clinical characteristics and outcomes of fully vaccinated patients with cancer who had breakthrough COVID-19 infections indicating that they remained at high risk for hospitalization and death.

The research has been published in the ‘Annals of Oncology Journal’.

The study showed that fully vaccinated patients who experienced breakthrough infections had a hospitalization rate of 65 per cent, an ICU or mechanical ventilation rate of 19 per cent, and a 13 per cent death rate. The study was conducted by the COVID-19 and Cancer Consortium (CCC19), a group of 129 research centres that has been tracking the impact of COVID-19 on patients with cancer since the beginning of the pandemic.

“Patients with cancer who develop breakthrough COVID-19 even following full vaccination can still experience severe outcomes, including death,” said Toni Choueiri, MD, director of the Lank Center for Genitourinary Care at Dana-Farber Cancer Institute and a senior author on the report.

“That is why a multilayered approach that includes masking and social-distancing, along with vaccination plus booster against COVID-19 remains an essential approach for the foreseeable future,” he added.

‘I’m Not Willing to Go Through This Again:’ Woman Diagnosed With Tinnitus After COVID (VIDEO)

A North Hills woman, who said she was diagnosed with tinnitus, or ringing in the ears, after getting her COVID-19 vaccine is offering tips to others who may be experiencing the same thing.

Sally Sinagra said she got the Johnson and Johnson vaccine in March and two days later noticed her ear started feeling plugged. . .

“They did some hearing tests and from all my symptoms, it’s tinnitus. I also got Meniere’s disease which is like a balance thing that comes from that. . .

Sinagra isn’t the first person who has experienced this after getting the vaccine. . .

KDKA interviewed another Pittsburgh man who said he noticed ringing in his ears just hours after receiving the booster shot. (Read more from “‘I’m Not Willing to Go Through This Again:’ Woman Diagnosed With Tinnitus After COVID Vaccine” HERE)

Report: Health Officials Tell Biden To Stop Pushing Booster

President Joe Biden in recent weeks has championed COVID-19 vaccine booster shots as a means of strengthening protection against the virus, but now experts are reportedly advising the president’s administration to back off, arguing the science doesn’t justify widespread use of the third shot.

According to Politico, several prominent doctors and scientists outside of the administration held a call with federal officials last week advising against promoting COVID-19 booster shots. These experts said that current data on vaccine performance doesn’t support using booster shots widely to reduce the risk of a breakthrough COVID-19 infection.

The call reportedly took place on Sept. 27, the same day Biden made a big deal out of receiving his booster shot, and included White House chief medical adviser Dr. Anthony Fauci and policy adviser Cameron Webb, as well as the heads of the Food and Drug Administration and Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. The outside experts advised that booster shots should only be given to “people most at risk of severe Covid-19 to reduce hospitalizations and deaths,” Politico reported. . .

Politico’s sources described the call as “the tensest one to date,” highlighting Fauci’s disagreements with the outside expert’s position on boosters.

The rescheduled call was the tensest one to date, according to the three people with information on the talks. Fauci argued that the CDC committee’s stance — that science did not support giving boosters to all adults — was incorrect. And he dismissed suggestions that the administration had to choose between a broad U.S. booster campaign and donating vaccines to countries in need.

RNC Suing Biden Administration Over Vaccine Mandate

Republican National Committee (RNC) Chairwoman Ronna McDaniel announced Thursday that the RNC intends to sue President Joe Biden over new COVID-19 vaccine mandates, which directly impact the private sector.

“Joe Biden told Americans when he was elected that he would not impose vaccine mandates. He lied,” McDaniel said in a statement. “Now small businesses, workers, and families across the country will pay the price.”

“Like many Americans, I am pro-vaccine and anti-mandate,” McDaniel added. “Many small businesses and workers do not have the money or legal resources to fight Biden’s unconstitutional actions and authoritarian decrees, but when his decree goes into effect, the RNC will sue the administration to protect Americans and their liberties.”

Earlier Thursday, Biden formally announced his plan to force companies with more than 100 employees to vaccinate workers against the coronavirus or test them weekly and dismissed concerns about encroaching on personal freedoms.

“This is not about freedom or personal choice,” Biden said during a Thursday address to the nation. “It’s about protecting yourself and those around you, the people you work with, the people you care about, the people you love. My job as president is to protect all Americans.” (Read more from “RNC Suing Biden Administration Over Vaccine Mandate” HERE)

People in the 21st Century Have Forgotten How To Resist Tyranny – Here’s a History Lesson From the Civil Rights Movement

As more and more people around the world finally start to wake up and understand that the “war against the virus” has been a plan from the beginning for tyrants to seize control of society and implement a medical police state that controls every aspect of our lives and enslaves us, they are beginning to venture out of their homes and take to the streets in protest.

But protesting alone is not going to push back tyranny. As I watch video clips shot from people’s cell phones during many of these protests, mostly outside the U.S. at this point as most Americans are still asleep, what I am seeing is a modern population who knows something is wrong and is trying to do something about it, but don’t know how.

When thugs who call themselves “police” gang up and beat the crap out of someone to make an example out of them, the crowds who are there just watch and video record it, even if they outnumber the police in some cases by more than 10 to one.

History shows us that to fight tyranny and seek freedom from the tyrants, you have to be willing to count the cost, and sacrifice your own comfort and safety, even if it costs you your life.

Because the alternative is slavery. And that is the choice that is facing nearly all citizens around the world today: do you want to live as slaves and allow the government to control every aspect of your life, or is freedom worth the price to put your own life on the line, both for you, your children, and future generations?

Doctors Question The Optics And The Scientific Rationale Behind The Plan For COVID-19 Booster Shots In The U.S.

The decision to give out extra doses of Moderna and Pfizer’s COVID-19 vaccines pits federal health officials who say the shots may not protect people from severe disease in the future against the public-health experts who disagree with their logic.

“It just doesn’t make sense on the surface,” said Dr. Paul Offit, director of the Vaccine Education Center at Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia. “This whole effort of giving a third dose will, frankly, do little to get us on top of this pandemic because the issue here is not boosting the vaccinated. The issue is vaccinating the unvaccinated.”

The majority of COVID-19 hospitalizations and deaths are occurring in people who are unvaccinated. Only about 60% of the U.S. population who qualify for a shot are fully immunized, though vaccination rates are increasing.

However, federal health officials, citing concerns about waning immunity, announced last Wednesday that the Biden administration plans to allow adults in the U.S. who are fully vaccinated with the mRNA vaccines developed by Moderna Inc. MRNA or Pfizer Inc. PFE and partner BioNTech SE BNTX, -3.64% to get a third dose starting Sept. 20 with a few caveats.

The extra dose must be administered at least eight months after the second shot, only to those age 18 and older, and will likely be made available first to higher-risk people, including residents of nursing homes and healthcare workers or those who were vaccinated back in December and January.
