There's a reason people had to go to court to fight for the release of Pfizer's data about the safety and efficacy of its Covid shots: because the Big Pharma company is covering up so many lies and health hazards that its running scared from accountability. So much of what doctors and researchers are finding now about these Pfizer shots show that what was called out as conspiracy theory is actually true. For instance, these shots truly mess with a woman's reproductive system -- to the point where they may not be able to have babies. Population control? You decide. The data is shocking and frightening. Naomi Wolf, noted journalist and author, discusses her findings.

One of the strangest and most disconcerting things about the COVID 19 pandemic has been the story of long COVID.Many COVID long-haulers have continued experiencing cognitive symptoms long after their initial COVID infection — loss of attention, concentration, memory, and mental sharpness — what scientists are calling "brain fog". For some patients, the condition is so serious that it can be impossible to go back to their pre-COVID lives.Today's guest, actually had an early intuition that COVID-19 could trigger a neurological health crisis.Michelle Monje is a pediatric neuro-oncologist here at Stanford who treats kids with serious brain cancers. She also runs a neuroscience research lab that studies how the brain develops during early life. For the past decade, she has been focused on how chemotherapy triggers a cascade of inflammation in the brain that leads to so called “chemo-fog” — a very similar set of symptoms that we now see in many people with long covid.In this episode, Monje helps us understand what brain fog is, what seems to be causing it, and how her team and others are trying to develop treatments that could help with other conditions linked to inflammation in the brain, such as chronic fatigue syndrome.ReferencesFernández-Castañeda A, Lu P, Geraghty AC, et al.

This episode examines the purported connection between obesity and COVID outcomes.While obesity does somewhat worsen COVID outcomes, the impact is modest and dramatically overstated.These data have also been weaponized by antivaxxers and politicians for cynical ends.Many COVID-obesity narratives create a false dichotomy between vaccination and obesity, suggesting that what we really need is to fight obesity, not vaccinate.Let us look at the data.First, mild obesity confers only a very modest, almost undetectable increased risk of death, and severe obesity gives a risk comparable to being male or black. Even severe obesity is outshined by simply having 2-5 medical conditions, or being an organ transplant recipient (PMIDs: 32640463, 34197283).Now let's compare all of these to vaccination status. Obesity and vaccination are not even in the same ballpark. Obesity provides paltry additional risk compared to being unvaccinated (PMID 34529637).For completeness, let us compare all of these to age. We can see that not only does age dominate, but it dominates overwhelmingly.COVID deaths are driven by age first, unvaccinated status second, the presence of serious medical conditions third, and then by an equal mix of obesity and other risk factors like being black, being underweight, being male, etc.A common statistic bandied about: "80% of deaths/complications/etc. are in people with obesity!!!"Actually, the stat is: 78% of Americans hospitalized for COVID are overweight or obese.But here's another stat: 74% of American adults are overweight or obese.In other words, the % of obese people in the hospital with serious Covid roughly matches the % of obese people in the US. Therefore you can't point to the % of obese people and say it was caused by obesity, because the sick folks simply mirror the available population.Media outlets have pushed this statistic, despite it actually showing that obesity doesn't have much of an impact on COVID, because it drives clicks and advertising revenue.Don't let this trash colonize your mind.===Like, comment, subscribe.For more, find me at:PODCAST The Kevin Bass ShowYOUTUBE https://www.youtube.com/user/kbassphiladelphiaSUBREDDIT www.reddit.com/r/kevinbassWEBSITE http://thedietwars.comTWITTER https://twitter.com/kevinnbass/https://twitter.com/healthmisinfo/INSTAGRAM https://instagram.com/kevinnbass/TIKTOK https://tiktok.com/@kevinnbassAnd above all, please donate to support what I do:PATREON https://patreon.com/kevinnbass/DONATE https://thedietwars.com/support-me/

Could too many Covid vaccines be bad? Yahoo News Australia has just expanded access to a second COVID booster to everyone 30 years and over, while recommending it only for people 50 and over. That means it's up to people aged 30-49 years to decide whether they would like a second booster, but they will not be actively encouraged. The promise of COVID vaccines as a means to completely ending the pandemic was short-lived. Vaccines are not as protective against variants such as Omicron and also wane in protection, which is why we have seen continued waves of infection even in highly vaccinated countries. This is just my opinion.

More than half of Americans show signs of a previous Covid-19 infection, including three out of every four children, according to a new report released on Tuesday.美国疾病控制和预防中心4月26日发布的一份新报告称,超半数美国人表现出曾感染新冠病毒的迹象,其中包括四分之三的美国儿童。The findings from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) come after researchers examined blood samples from more than 200,000 Americans and looked for virus-fighting antibodies made from infections, not vaccines. They found that signs of past infection rose dramatically between December and February, when the more contagious Omicron variant surged through the US.研究人员检测了超20万美国人的血样,从中寻找感染病毒而非接种疫苗产生的抗击病毒的抗体。他们发现,曾感染病毒的迹象在12月至2月期间急剧增多,这段时间也是传染性更强的奥密克戎毒株在美国各地肆虐的时期。For Americans of all ages, about 34% had signs of prior infection in December. Just two months later, 58% did.在所有年龄段的美国人当中,约有34%在12月表现出曾感染病毒的迹象。仅仅两个月之后,就有58%表现出曾感染病毒的迹象。"I did expect it to increase. I did not expect it to increase quite this much,” said Dr Kristie Clarke, co-leader of a CDC team that tracks the extent of coronavirus infections.追踪新冠病毒感染范围的美疾控中心团队的共同负责人克里斯蒂·克拉克博士称:“我预期感染人数会增多。但我没想到会增加这么多。”In the CDC report, the most striking increase was in children. The percentage of those 17 and under with antibodies rose from about 45% in December to about 75% in February.在美疾控中心的这份报告中,感染人数增加最多的是儿童。17岁以下人群(含17岁)携带(感染病毒产生的)抗体的比例从12月的45%左右增加到了2月的75%左右。The older people were, the less likely they had evidence of past infections. That may be because older adults have higher vaccination rates and they may be more likely to take other Covid-19 precautions, such as wearing masks and avoiding crowds, Clarke said.年龄越大,出现曾感染病毒迹象的可能性越低。克拉克说,这可能是因为年龄大的成年人疫苗接种率更高,也更可能采取佩戴口罩和避免聚集等其他新冠预防措施。Reported cases had a huge surge in December and January, then fell almost as dramatically as they had risen. But daily case counts have been trending up again in recent weeks.美国报告的病例在12月和1月激增,之后又以几乎同样的速度剧减。但是单日新增病例数在最近几周又开始有上升趋势。The case numbers are believed to be an undercount, but officials do think recent increases reflect a true rise in infections. Many Covid-19 infections are mild enough that patients do not seek care or confirmatory lab tests. CDC officials say they plan to release a study soon that estimates that in recent months there were three infections for every reported case.实际病例数据信被低估,但是官员认为最近增加的病例数真实反映出感染人数的上升趋势。许多新冠感染病例症状都很轻微,因此患者没有就医或做核酸检测。美疾控中心官员表示,他们计划在近期发布一项研究结果,据该研究估算,近几个月以来每报告1例新增病例,实际新增感染人数为3人。Another recent trend: US health officials say they have seen two weeks of increases in Covid-19 hospitalizations, though the numbers remain relatively low. Hospital admissions number about 1,600 per day, a 9% increase in the prior week, the CDC reported.近期还有另一个趋势:美国卫生部官员称,新冠住院人数已经连续两周呈增长趋势,尽管住院人数依然相对较低。美疾控中心报告称,目前新增住院人数约为每天1600人,相比前一周增加了9%。Available evidence nevertheless offers reason to be hopeful about how the pandemic is going, officials suggested.不过,美疾控官员指出,就现有的迹象来看,他们有理由对新冠疫情的走向抱有希望。"We are not anticipating more severe disease from some of these subvariants, but we are actively studying them,” said Dr Rochelle Walensky, CDC director, on Tuesday.美疾控中心主任罗谢尔·瓦伦斯基博士4月26日表示:“我们认为新冠病毒目前的几个变种应该不会导致更严重的疾病,但是我们正在积极对其进行研究。”The study looked for any detectable level of antibodies; it did not distinguish how many people had antibody levels that might be protective. Scientists are still trying to understand what role these kinds of antibodies play in protection from future virus exposures.这项研究只是寻找任何可检测到的抗体水平,但没有分辨出多少人的抗体水平可能具有保护作用。科学家仍在试图理解这些抗体对于防范未来被病毒感染所发挥的作用。Officials continue to urge Americans to get vaccines and boosters, which offer additional protection against Covid-19 for all, including those who were previously infected.美疾控中心官员仍在继续敦促美国人接种疫苗和加强针,疫苗能为所有人提供针对新冠病毒的额外防护作用,包括那些感染过病毒的人。英文来源:卫报
The World Health Organisation is in the midst of coming up with COVID-19 excess mortality estimates for all the 194 countries that are its members. The Indian government has been placing objections on the way this exercise is being done for a few months now. After a few reports came out on the subject, the Indian government responded in a press release saying that they have a quarrel with the methodology of the WHO. To understand this entire controversy, Suno India's Menaka Rao spoke to Amruta Byatnal who broke the story on this issue on March 30. She is a senior editor with Devex, a website on global development, and is based in New Delhi.

Guest: Alex Boyd, Toronto Star reporter Almost two years after the first COVID-19 vaccines arrived in Canada, the excitement is somewhat over. Most Canadians are now vaccinated and demand is grinding to a halt. The rush for vaccines has also slowed down considerably after recently lifted mandates. This means that millions of doses are lying unused, just weeks or months away from expiring. And millions of vaccines have been thrown away. Vaccination continues to lag in low-income countries. In the meantime, just how many vaccines are we tossing in the garbage and can Canada actually do anything to prevent this vaccine wastage?

Many COVID-19 cases can be mild, but for some, the symptoms never fully disappear. As more Americans are battling "long COVID," we sit down with an author to discuss her new book and how "long COVID" plays into America's complex relationship with chronic illness.
Researchers say more than 1 in 4 COVID patients still have symptoms months later. Many COVID long-haulers may experience fatigue and what researchers call "exercise intolerance." Hear about a recent study that identifies trouble with the muscles absorbing oxygen, not the heart or the lungs – and the relief this diagnosis can bring patients. Physical therapy can play an important role in recovery. We talk to a physical therapist working on tailored treatment programs.

jQuery(document).ready(function(){ cab.clickify(); }); Original Podcast with clickable words https://tinyurl.com/yhgkbrpu Experts doubt the elimination of contact tracking. Saineolaithe in amhras go gcuirfear deireadh le rianú teagmhála. It is reported in the print media today that the National Public Health Emergency Team is to discuss the end of public contact tracking on 22 October. Tuairiscítear sna meáin chlóite inniu go bhfuil an Fhoireann Náisiúnta Éigeandála Sláinte Poiblí chun plé a dhéanamh ar dheireadh a chur le rianú teagmhálacha i measc an phobail ar an 22 Deireadh Fómhair. Many Covid-19 health restrictions will be eased on that day. Is ar an lá sin a dhéanfar maolú ar roinnt mhaith srianta sláinte covid 19. Trinity College Immunology Professor Kingston Mills said today that he would be surprised if NPHET decided to end contact tracking. Dúirt an tOllamh Imdhíoneolaíochta ó Choláiste na Tríonóide, Kingston Mills inniu go gcuirfeadh sé ionadh air dá ndéanfadh NPHET cinneadh deireadh a chur le rianadh teagmhálacha. Other experts have also expressed concern. Tá imní léirithe ag saineolaithe eile freisin. Professor Rónán Collins, Consultant Geriatrician at Tallaght University Hospital told News today that it may still be too early to make this change. Dúirt an tOllamh Rónán Collins, Geiriatraí Comhairleach in Ospidéal na hOllscoile Tamhlacht le Nuacht inniu go mb'fhéidir go bhfuil sé róluath fós an t-athrú seo a dhéanamh. "Sure, the number of Covid 19 cases has decreased, but we still see a lot of sick people in hospitals with Covid - 19, especially among unvaccinated people. "Cinnte, tá laghdú ar na líon na gcásanna Covid 19, ach fós féin feiceann muid go leor daoine breoite sna h-ospidéil le covid 19, go háirithe i measc daoine nach bhfuil vacsaínithe. In my experience, many people from other countries - especially western Europe - do not trust the vaccination program. Ó mo thaithí féin, tá go leor daoine ó thíortha eile - ó iarthar na hEorpa go háirithe - nach bhfuil muinín acu as an gclár vacsaínithe. So they are still in danger. Mar sin, tá siad fós i mbaol. I believe that tracking contacts among certain groups is important. " Creidim go bhfuil tábhacht ag baint le rianú teagmhálacha is measc grúpaí áirithe." Professor Anthony O'Connor, Consultant Doctor of Gastroenterology at the same hospital, told News that he has an open mind on this issue. Dúirt an tOllamh Anthony O'Connor, Dochtúir Comhairleach le Gaistreintreolaíocht san ospidéal céanna, le Nuacht go bhfuil intinn oscailte aige i leith na ceiste seo. "But," he said, "it is necessary to constantly monitor the number of cases and to immediately return contact tracking if the number of cases increases." "Ach", a dúirt sé, "is gá súil a choimeád i gcónaí ar líon na gcásanna agus rianú teagmhálacha a thabhairt ar ais láithreach má thagann méadú ar líon na gcásanna." From Monday, contact tracking will become routine among school children. Ón Luan, cuirfear deireadh le rianú teagmhálacha mar ghnáthamh i measc leanaí scoile. Children who are in close contact - but who do not have symptoms - will not have to stay away from people either. Ní bheidh ar leanaí atá ina ngartheagmhálacha - ach nach bhfuil comharthaí sóirt orthu - fanacht amach ó dhaoine ach oiread. The National Public Health Emergency Team is to examine the impact of the end of contact tracking on schools before making any decision on the wider community. Tá an Fhoireann Náisiúnta Éigeandála Sláinte Poiblí chun scrúdú a dhéanamh ar an dtionchar a bheidh ag deireadh rianú teagmhálacha ar scoileanna sula ndéanfar aon chinneadh maidir leis an bpobal níos leithne.

Many Covid relief programs have been subject to fraud by scammers, but a whole slew of international scam artists have taken advantage of the enhanced unemployment benefits offered up to those affected by the pandemic. Russian scammers, Chinese hackers, and Nigerian scammers have used stolen identities easily accessed from data breaches and relaxed verification requirements to make bogus claims for Covid aid. Aging state unemployment systems also contributed to the problem. The scams are so widespread, we don't really know how much money has been stolen, but it is believed to be in the hundreds of billions of dollars.

Tidelands Health launches Post-COVID-19 Recovery Program to provide coordinated, ongoing care for ‘long-haulers'Tidelands Health has launched a comprehensive, coordinated care and treatment program for those who have survived COVID-19 but continue to have a range of medical issues for weeks and even months after their initial infection. The Tidelands Health Post-COVID19 Recovery Program is open to anyone whose symptoms – joint pain, fatigue, chronic cough, anxiety and more – linger long after their infection and interfere with their ability to return to work or resume their favorite activities. Referred to as COVID-19 long-haulers, these individuals can benefit from coordinated care by a variety of specialists, which the new recovery program provides. “After seeing a number of patients experience lingering symptoms long after their initial COVID-19 infection, our team developed the Tidelands Health Post-COVID-19 Recovery Program to better meet patients' needs,” said Dr. William Epperson, medical director of primary care at Tidelands Health. “Those who have survived COVID-19 shouldn't just try to live with these lingering symptoms, which can often interrupt their daily life. This program is designed to provide customized care and support based on the specific set of symptoms a patient is experiencing. Just as Tidelands Health led the way in COVID-19 testing and vaccination, we aim to lead the way in long-term recovery.” Patients in the Tidelands Health Post-COVID-19 Recovery Program benefit from a multidisciplinary care team that offers an integrated, personalized approach to treatment. Anyone whose symptoms have persisted for at least three weeks since their initial COVID-19 diagnosis is eligible for the program. Many COVID-19 survivors experience a range of lingering symptoms, including fatigue, shortness of breath, memory loss, chronic cough, anxiety, depression and more. COVID-19 also can damage the heart and impact heart function, create ongoing respiratory difficulties and negatively affect balance, strength and endurance. Through this new recovery program, specialists will be available to provide comprehensive care. A patient's first stop in the program will be with a primary care physician, who will complete a thorough physical exam and review a patient's COVID-19 history to help determine the best approach to resolving the lingering symptoms. In addition, a care navigator will coordinate a patient's care and serve as a resource for education and support. Patients then will have access to a variety of specialists to address their specific needs. Cardiologists, pulmonologists, neurologists and nutritionists might all play a role in a patient's customized care plan. And because COVID-19 can take a toll on balance, strength and endurance, patients will have access to a new rehabilitation program, Stronger After COVID-19, offering specialized physical, occupational and speech therapy through Tidelands Health Rehabilitation Services, the region's largest network of outpatient rehabilitation services.“COVID-19 long-haulers experience a range of lingering symptoms, but every case is different,” Dr. Epperson said. “That's why it's so important, through this new program, to connect every patient to the specialists he or she needs to provide care and treatment for each individual. “While some symptoms are similar, there's no one-size-fits-all care plan for COVID-19 long haulers. Providing a customized, targeted approach based on each patient's unique needs will help achieve better results and help each patient on the road to recovery and to resume the activities they love.” The Tidelands Health Post-COVID-19 Recovery Program is available to anyone – not just patients who were treated for COVID-19 at Tidelands Health - whose symptoms have persisted for at least three weeks since their initial COVID-19 diagnosis. Individuals who would like to schedule an appointment should call 1-866-TIDELANDS

Gov. Tim Walz and other state officials announced that many of the state’s community vaccination sites are now taking those who don’t have appointments. Walk-ins for those 16 years of age and older are now accepted at community vaccination sites in Bloomington at the Mall of America, St. Paul at Roy Wilkins Auditorium, Lino Lakes and Oakdale. Walk-ins for those 18 and over are being accepted in Mankato, Duluth, Rochester and St. Cloud. Walz says, since Minnesotans under 18 need to receive consent from a parent or guardian, the state is encouraging parents, guardians and families to walk in and get vaccinated together. The federally-supported State Fairgrounds is not currently accepting walk-in appointments. The increased availability of vaccine appointments comes as the state prepares to end capacity restrictions later this month, and double down on the vaccine push. Here’s Walz in a recent press conference. 2:07 WALZ: Back in March and April of last year, I said our only vaccine was social distancing and mitigation. That’s no longer true. We rank near the top for testing, fewest in cases and fewest in deaths. So, again: Walk-ins for those 16 years of age and older are now accepted at community vaccination sites in Bloomington at the Mall of America, St. Paul at Roy Wilkins Auditorium, Lino Lakes and Oakdale. Walk-ins for those 18 and over are being accepted in Mankato, Duluth, Rochester and St. Cloud. Minnesotans can continue to make Community Vaccination Program appointments ahead of time by visiting vaccineconnector.mn.gov. I’m Cole Premo.
Gov. Andrew Cuomo said Monday that some remaining COVID-19 restrictions in New York will end in a couple of weeks, including capacity limits on most events, and in some cases, the 6' social distancing rule.

This episode is shared from Mayo Clinic Q&A and was recorded in March, 2021. Guest: Billie A. Schultz, M.D. Host: Halena M. Gazelka, M.D. (@hmgazelkamd) Fatigue and what's being called "brain fog" are turning out to be some of the most common issues for long-hauler patients recovering from COVID-19. The National Institutes of Health calls these and other symptoms, which can last for several months, post-acute sequelae of SARS-CoV-2, or PASC. Those suffering from brain fog may experience short-term memory loss, confusion, difficulty concentrating, or just feeling different than they did before they had COVID-19, even if it was a mild case of the infection. And Dr. Billie Schultz, a Mayo Clinic physical medicine and rehabilitation expert, says, though older patients more often to have these symptoms more often, younger people are also showing up with brain fog. In this Mayo Clinic Q&A podcast, Dr. Schultz says brain fog seems to be more inflammatory than infection, but there are more questions than answers about this neurological concern. Meanwhile, efforts are underway to develop rehabilitation programs to help patients recover.

P., Calcuttawala, K., Vest, R. T., Gate, D., Berdnik, D., McNerney, M. W., Channappa, D., Cobos, I., Ludwig, N., Schulz-Schaeffer, W. J., Keller, A., Wyss-Coray, T. Abstract: Though SARS-CoV-2 primarily targets the respiratory system, it is increasingly appreciated that patients may suffer neurological symptoms of varied severity. However, an unbiased understanding of the molecular processes across brain cell types that could contribute to these symptoms in COVID-19 patients is still missing. Here, we profile 47,678 droplet-based single-nucleus transcriptomes from the frontal cortex and choroid plexus across 10 non-viral, 4 COVID-19, and 1 influenza patient. We complement transcriptomic data with immunohistochemical staining for the presence of SARS-CoV-2. We find that all major cortex parenchymal and choroid plexus cell types are affected transcriptionally with COVID-19. This arises, in part, from SARS-CoV-2 infection of the cortical brain vasculature, meninges, and choroid plexus, stimulating increased inflammatory signaling into the brain. In parallel, peripheral immune cells infiltrate the brain, microglia activate programs mediating the phagocytosis of live neurons, and astrocytes dysregulate genes involved in neurotransmitter homeostasis. Among neurons, layer 2/3 excitatory neurons--evolutionarily expanded in humans--show a specific downregulation of genes encoding major SNARE and synaptic vesicle components, predicting compromised synaptic transmission. These perturbations are not observed in terminal influenza. Many COVID-19 gene expression changes are shared with those in chronic brain disorders and reside in genetic variants associated with cognitive function, schizophrenia, and depression. Our findings and public dataset provide a molecular framework and new opportunities to understand COVID-19 related neurological disease. Copy rights belong to original authors.

Many Covid-19 workforce initiatives proved temporary, like “hero pay” at big-box retailers. But some shifts may become permanent, like flexible work arrangements that allow more people to work from home. Huddle editor Mark Leger speaks with UNB business professor Rob Moir and Wendy Keats of the Cooperative Enterprise Council of New Brunswick, about the value shifts that could reshape the economy and the nature of work and entrepreneurship.
