It's great to have numbers to show what has been obvious; the vaccines don't work against Omicron. It's insane. Everyone I know who has gotten Omicron has been fully vaxxed and most boosted. Yet, Playwrights Horizons, Carnegie Hall, The Players (club), the University Club, St Thomas Fifth Avenue all require proof of full vaccination, leading those at high risk believe they are safe.

They all have lost my respect.

Every day I thank God for granting me the gifts of skepticism and obstinacy. These traits often ruffle peoples feathers, but it also protected me and my family from injecting ourselves with this garbage.

At this point these discussions are really antithetical. The COVID shot discussions are flat-earth vs curved-earth, 7 day Adventists vs people who understand the translation of "day" meaning era, etc... You've picked your side and you're going down with the ship. All our focus should be on supporting, voting for, and empowering people who seek truth over being "right," and simply leave those who refuse to live in reality behind. That's what liberty is. They get to decide for them, we should focus on ensuring those we empower are people worth empowering. The shot itself is irrelevant at this point.

Speaking of negative efficacy, I’ve been looking over the fda briefings by Pfizer and Moderna, i haven’t seen anyone mention this: Moderna’s own data on obese children finds negative efficacy! It’s so weird because you’d think the one proven high risk group is the obese, so you’d really want to focus on that, if any kids are gonna get dangerously ill it’s the obese ones… yet on Moderna p114, table 59, they find vaccine efficacy for the obese 2-5 year olds as - 15.4% (compared with +40.4 for non-obese). Am I missing something? Shouldn’t this be huge news? I know Moderna writes it’s nothing to worry about since the confidence intervals are so wide, but that of course applies to all their data! Crazy.

Meanwhile the FDA remain total safety nazis about European formula in the midst of a formula crisis, of course: https://gaty.substack.com/p/can-starving-babies-drink-vaccines

Your statement: “The New England Journal, which published it last week, is among the world’s best medical research outlets” might have been true before the pandemic but the editors have significant COI and the papers they have published over the past 2 years have been distinctly biased in favor of the narrative. Further to that the NEJM editors refuse to correct inaccurate data in 2 of the Pfizer papers they published. NEJM has fallen from grace in my book, while the BMJ has risen as an open honest medical science dialog source.

Oh hey I get to re-use this from the bad cat article!

And then there's the blood supply…many blood banks required vaccination proof during the lockdowns and relaxed somewhat over the latter part of last year. The main one around here seems to pretty much stay at crisis point and they are begging people to donate. We've yet to see anything about possible effects on people who did not get the vaccine, but had to get transfusion(s) from someone who did.

When AIDS first hit—and until COVID—most blood banks would not allow gay people to even donate. You know, "risky" behavior and all—even if monogamous or celibate. Even as more heterosexual people became infected, they were never outright banned from donating unless they were intravenous drug users (who most likely would never volunteer anyway, but I digress).

Each passing day, it seems getting vaccinated with mRNA—whether forced or voluntary--is the riskiest behavior yet. I feel so bad for the kids who've been pushed into it by well-meaning but ignorant parents or schools being forced by "matching federal funds" requiring them to deny attending or participating in extracurricular activities as the bribe.

No conclusions or statements purporting “less severe illness or deaths” for the vaccinated is non-science. Moderna, Pfizer and J&J vaccinated the control groups….eliminating the science based future comparisons bet vaxxed and unvaxxed. There are no control groups and therefore no comparisons can be made….EVER. This NEVER happens in real science based studies. How can you determine the 5 year adverse effects of a drug when you purposely eliminated the control group….you can’t. The adverse effects are unknown forever.

This is why CNN has less than 500,000 viewers Per hour they are a Propaganda tool only. People are getting wise and sick of the Government Lies.

I'd give a lot to know what "other vaccine uptake" is right now. Have the dreadful COVID shots caused people to rethink the "very extensive" childhood vaccination schedule?

All of this has been one major con job. I do not believe those injections do anything beneficial. Not even for the Wuhan strain. Big Pharma used the world for liability free, phase 3 (1 and 2 for boosters and children) clinical trials for mRNA technology.

i have a feeling the dam will break on the vaccines, at which point it'll be study after study showing not just their lack of efficacy but also how dangerous they are. but i've also been called naive, so.

What's even more impactful and horrendous is this article from Children's Health Defense . A FOIA request demonstrates that CDC did not even bother to monitor safety signals of the mRNA jabs. Either that or they monitored the data and it was so bad that they are lying to hide the data.

The way I see it, regarding less severe disease in the vaccinated and boosted……how is it possible to determine this - especially when everyone reacts so differently to the infection? How do they know someone would have been a lot sicker if they didn’t have the jab? It’s all a crap shoot. I have trouble buying into this premise. I think our unique immune systems are more likely what is determining the severity of illness.

Now wait just a cotton-pickin' minute there, Alex Berenson!

The President of the United States--the leader of this gerontocracy!--just said we need more money for THE NEXT PANDEMIC!

Has anyone else noticed that the Quacking Medical Gnome has, once again, disappeared and now the pitiful demented president is the front man for jabbing little kids with stuff that KIDS DON'T NEED and DOESN'T WORK anyway?

Oh. Wait. His Gnome-ness is covid + and must isolate from Rand Paul.

But never mind that.

THE NEXT PANDEMIC!

Or maybe it's MONKEY POX!
