New Hypothesis Links HPV E6 and SARS‑CoV‑2 Spike Proteins to Reduced p53 Activity

BUFFALO, NY – January 13, 2026 – A new #hypothesis article was #published in Oncotarget (Volume 17) on January 3, 2026, titled “Hypothesis: HPV E6 and COVID spike proteins cooperate in targeting tumor suppression by p53.” Written by Wafik S. El-Deiry, Oncotarget Editor-in-Chief, from The Warren Alpert Medical School of Brown University and from Lifespan Health System and Brown University, the paper proposes that two viral proteins, HPV E6 and SARS-CoV-2 spike, could jointly reduce the activity of p53, a protein that helps protect cells from becoming cancerous. HPV is already known to drive several cancers, and the hypothesis suggests that additional pressure on p53 could matter for cancer risk or recurrence in some settings. HPV can promote cancer development in part by using its E6 protein, together with a human partner protein called E6-AP, to drive the downregulation of p53. When p53 is weakened, damaged cells may be more likely to survive and continue growing. The new hypothesis asks whether SARS-CoV-2 viral influence could further reduce p53 function in people already affected by HPV. The article highlights studies suggesting that the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein may suppress p53 activity and discusses observations that have raised questions about cancer outcomes after COVID-19 infection or vaccination in certain contexts. It also notes that a search of the literature did not identify clear evidence of direct molecular cooperation between HPV and COVID-19 in suppressing p53, which underscores the need for further studies. “I listened to an interview (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tnVMjp9mCA0&t=2s) of Dr. Patrick Soon-Shiong by Chris Cuomo where I learned about a patient named Jim Johnson with a history of HPV-related head and neck cancer who by 2022 had survived his HPV-related cancer for 7 years and then he took the COVID vaccine.” To investigate the presented hypothesis, Dr. El-Deiry proposes epidemiological studies that analyze cancer incidence and recurrence in HPV-positive groups with prior SARS-CoV-2 infection or COVID mRNA vaccination. It also proposes laboratory studies to assess whether HPV E6 and SARS-CoV-2 spike combined reduce p53 function more than either factor alone. Overall, the hypothesis was formulated to focus attention on an HPV and SARS-CoV-2 shared biological target, p53, and to encourage careful studies that separate coincidence from causation. By outlining specific approaches, it aims to help researchers evaluate whether combined viral pressures on tumor-suppressor pathways could contribute to cancer progression.

BUFFALO, NY – January 8, 2026 – A new #review was #published in Oncotarget (Volume 17) on January 3, 2026, titled “COVID vaccination and post-infection cancer signals: Evaluating patterns and potential biological mechanisms.” Led by Charlotte Kuperwasser from Tufts University School of Medicine and Oncotarget Editor-in-Chief Wafik S. El-Deiry from The Warren Alpert Medical School of Brown University, the review examines published reports describing cancers that appeared after COVID-19 vaccination or SARS-CoV-2 infection. The authors analyze patterns across case reports, small patient series, and large population studies, and explain why these observations are relevant for cancer research and long-term public health monitoring. Cancer remains a major global health concern, and understanding factors that may influence its behavior is important. The review covers reports published between January 2020 and October 2025 that describe cancer diagnoses, recurrence, or unusually rapid disease progression following vaccination or infection. In total, 69 publications were reviewed. Sixty-six article reports, representing more than 300 patients across multiple countries and cancer types; 2 retrospective investigations; and one longitudinal study spanning the pre-pandemic through post-pandemic periods. The review explores how immune responses triggered by infection or vaccination could, in some individuals, influence existing cancer cells or previously dormant disease. Many article reports involved blood cancers such as lymphomas and leukemias and solid tumors, including breast, lung, pancreatic, brain, and skin cancers. Some cases described rapid disease progression or cancers appearing near vaccine injection sites or nearby lymph nodes. These observations are described as hypothesis-generating rather than evidence of risk. In addition to individual case reports, the review examines findings from large population studies in South Korea, Italy, and the United States military. These studies assessed cancer trends over time in vaccinated populations and reported modest associations for certain cancer types. The authors note that these findings are limited by short follow-up periods and potential reporting and detection biases, emphasizing the need for longer-term data. The authors also discuss possible biological explanations for the reported patterns, including temporary immune changes, inflammation, or altered immune surveillance that could affect tumor behavior in people with undetected or controlled cancer. They place these observations within the broader context of how viral infections can interact with cancer biology. “Establishing causality between SARS-CoV-2 infection, COVID-19 vaccination, and cancer requires a level of evidence far beyond temporal association.” Overall, the review identifies significant gaps in current knowledge about possible associations between COVID-19 vaccination and cancer, including limited long-term cancer surveillance, lack of molecular data, and an incomplete understanding of individual susceptibility. The authors emphasize the need for carefully designed studies that integrate clinical, epidemiologic, and biological evidence. Finally, they conclude that examining these reported patterns is important for advancing cancer research and supporting informed public health discussions.

Originally aired 9/11/25: Mary welcomes back Bill Wilson of The Daily Jot to pull the curtain back on some inconvenient truths – inconvenient for those who don’t like truth telling, anyway. In the aftermath of yesterday’s shocking headline of the assassination of Charlie Kirk, sometimes the bedrock of truth will go head to head with wickedness and a high price is paid. Worldviews clash daily in these times, but embedded in the series of decisions that were made to take this man’s life over ideology is the true definition of “crossing the rubicon” – and America will take a long time to recover from this, if we do. Today we also discuss the the political polarization fallout of the Sars/Cov pandemic, accompanied by the general declining trust in public health measures that followed, along with more intense political division. If it only took a couple weeks for Fauci and his ilk to shut our country down, why has it taken an additional 4 years to finish a thought on the scam of the century? Well, there are those who are finally getting around to spelling it out. We also chat about lawfare against Trump’s agenda, Senator Tim Kaine’s radical views, and the myth of the Palestinian State. Set for September 22, the UN is continuing to push hard for that unknown state for an unknown people (see, “terrorists”). But Trump has disallowed visas for Mahmoud Abbas and 80 of his closest friends in terror. Now what? Well, change of venue perhaps. Stay tuned. A full hour with a prophecy watcher and journalist.

Para encerrar 2025, selecionamos as melhores reportagens e entrevistas exibidas ao longo do ano. No hospital Gustave Roussy, nos arredores de Paris, as novas técnicas de medicina nuclear já garantem mais precisão no diagnóstico e no tratamento, beneficiando diversos pacientes. Taíssa Stivanin, da RFI em Paris O centro pretende expandir esses procedimentos para vários tipos de tumores malignos, como os da próstata, da mama e do sistema digestivo, explicou Désirée Deandreis, especialista em medicina nuclear aplicada à oncologia e chefe do setor no instituto. “A ideia é testar novas moléculas para vários tipos de câncer. Por ora, os tratamentos se restringem aos cânceres raros e de próstata. Começamos também a utilizá-los em cânceres de mama e, neste inverno europeu, vamos testá-los nos cânceres digestivos. Queremos também detectar doenças que ainda não contam com opções terapêuticas. A meta é desenvolver pesquisas e encontrar moléculas eficazes.” Sedentarismo: problema de saúde pública O sedentarismo tornou-se um problema de saúde pública, e o mais preocupante é que a prática regular de atividade física não elimina os riscos associados ao hábito de passar várias horas sentado por dia. Esse foi o tema do nosso papo com a endocrinologista e fisiologista francesa Martine Duclos, chefe do setor de medicina do esporte do Hospital Universitário de Clermont-Ferrand, no centro da França. “Quando estamos sentados, os músculos das pernas não se contraem, e o fluxo do sangue diminui. Ele se mantém em certo nível, já que é necessário levar oxigênio aos músculos, mas é reduzido, o que diminui a pressão exercida nas paredes das artérias.” Vírus da Covid-19 afeta o cérebro Um estudo realizado no Instituto Pasteur, em Paris, revelou que o vírus SARS-CoV-2, além de atingir o cérebro, pode permanecer ativo no tronco cerebral por até 80 dias após a infecção. A descoberta, feita pelo pesquisador brasileiro Guilherme Dias de Melo e uma equipe de cientistas do instituto, identificou alterações em mecanismos cerebrais relacionados à dopamina, neurotransmissor envolvido em doenças neurodegenerativas como o mal de Parkinson. A presença do vírus da Covid-19 no cérebro está associada a sinais de depressão, distúrbios de memória e ansiedade, além de mecanismos que podem levar ao desenvolvimento da Covid longa. “Fizemos um estudo de longo prazo, dez semanas após o fim da fase aguda. E vimos que, durante todo esse tempo, os animais apresentavam sintomas, não os respiratórios clássicos da Covid-19, mas relacionados ao sistema nervoso central, como ansiedade e perda de memória. Mesmo após 80 dias, o vírus ainda estava presente”, explica Guilherme. Casos de chikungunya crescem na França A chikungunya é uma doença que vem crescendo rapidamente na França, com a proliferação do mosquito-tigre. Esse aumento já era esperado após meses de epidemia na Ilha da Reunião, no oceano Índico, e com a chegada do verão europeu em junho, que favorece a reprodução do inseto. Mas o rápido avanço da doença preocupa as autoridades francesas. Segundo a infectologista Émilie Mosnier, especialista em saúde pública que atua no hospital universitário de Saint-Pierre, na Ilha da Reunião, as condições climáticas, aliadas à densidade populacional e à quantidade de mosquitos, determinam a intensidade das contaminações. “É um risco cada vez maior e deve ser enfrentado coletivamente. A população precisa ser informada para evitar a reprodução do mosquito em áreas residenciais, reduzindo o risco de epidemias de chikungunya, mas também de dengue e zika.” Café pode ajudar a prevenir demência? A neurocientista portuguesa Luísa Lopes, pesquisadora do Instituto Gulbenkian de Ciência Molecular e da Faculdade de Medicina de Lisboa, faz parte do grupo de especialistas que busca entender como a cafeína atua na saúde dos neurônios – e os resultados são surpreendentes. Ela melhora o desempenho cognitivo e diminui a inflamação. “Houve há pouco tempo estudos de ressonância magnética funcional em humanos, com a cafeína. Eles foram feitos em Portugal, em Braga, e mostram que esse efeito cognitivo é real e a cafeína aumenta a concentração e a atenção. E o efeito de hiperatividade, com o consumo crônico, desaparece. Tanta gente toma que é como se estivéssemos em um grande ensaio clínico em tempo real. Podemos observar os efeitos colaterais, se ao longo da vida há algum problema, e é uma substância segura, não há grandes problemas em relação ao consumo de cafeína. Isso é uma ótima notícia para brasileiros e portugueses também, porque adoramos café!” Como o açúcar afeta a atividade cerebral O neurobiologista francês Xavier Fioramonti estuda como os açúcares podem afetar a atividade cerebral.Ele é diretor de pesquisa do Instituto Nacional para a Agricultura, a Alimentação e o Meio Ambiente (INRAE), na França, e codirige atualmente uma equipe de oito pesquisadores no laboratório Nutrineuro, da Universidade de Bordeaux, no sudoeste da França. Xavier concentra seus estudos na frutose, um açúcar naturalmente presente nas frutas, que contêm fibras e vitaminas e têm efeito benéfico para o organismo. O problema é que a frutose está cada vez mais presente de forma isolada em alimentos ultraprocessados, tanto doces quanto salgados. “A frutose, como já foi demonstrado nos últimos anos, induz transtornos metabólicos, como o diabetes. Quando consumimos esse tipo de açúcar, o fígado não sabe muito bem como utilizá-lo. Nenhuma célula do corpo sabe metabolizá-lo para convertê-lo em energia.” Museu de hospital psiquiátrico francês promove arte como terapia O acervo do Museu de Arte e História do Hospital Psiquiátrico Sainte-Anne, no 14º distrito de Paris, reúne cerca de 1.800 obras de 196 artistas-pacientes de vários países, incluindo o Brasil. As produções vão do século 19 aos dias de hoje. Uma das missões do museu, diz Anne Marie Dubois, responsável científica do estabelecimento, é derrubar o estigma da “loucura” dos pacientes psiquiátricos. “Claro que há pacientes que exprimem situações angustiantes, mas isso não é sistemático. É muito importante que as pessoas venham ao museu com o espírito livre de qualquer tipo de interpretação, sem questionar qual doença os pacientes tinham.” Projeto Prisme O projeto Prisme, uma plataforma de cooperação científica assinada entre a França e o Brasil, fez parte do calendário de eventos do Ano do Brasil na França. “A força da plataforma é reunir pesquisadores, instituições, representantes de programas nacionais de pesquisa, sociedade civil e associações de pacientes, além de organizações internacionais e financiadores”, explicou Marion Fanjat, representante do departamento de estratégias e parcerias da ANRS, a agência francesa de pesquisa sobre Aids e hepatites virais, que também monitora doenças infecciosas emergentes. “Após o lançamento oficial, os parceiros agora trabalham para definir um plano de ação, as prioridades nas pesquisas e ações concretas que serão operacionalizadas. Por enquanto, somos um consórcio de parceiros fundadores e estamos decidindo o que vamos fazer em termos operacionais nos próximos meses.”

People with long COVID experience persistent fatigue, breathlessness, and brain fog. Research links these effects to fibrin microclots intertwined with neutrophil extracellular traps that obstruct microvessels and impair oxygen delivery SARS-CoV-2 pushes blood into a hypercoagulable state, damaging endothelium, activating platelets, and inflammatory cytokines. This causes clot risk to persist for months, even after mild infections and hospital discharge Long COVID essentially boils down to mitochondrial dysfunction. Management includes proteolytic enzymes to help clear spike protein, while the I-RECOVER protocol guides detoxification, inflammation control, and mitochondrial repair to restore overall function Protecting cardiolipin, the mitochondrial membrane fat, requires limiting easily oxidized linoleic acid (LA) from seed oils, processed foods, nuts, seeds, and grain-fed meats Methylene blue may enhance mitochondrial respiration at low doses. Additionally, correcting copper deficiency and lowering excess iron through blood donation support energy production

Dr. Robert Redfield, former director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, says he'd like to see the mRNA COVID-19 vaccines phased out and eventually removed from the market.Redfield led the CDC from 2018 to 2021. While an avid proponent of vaccines in general, he hopes that the fallout from the emergency-authorized mRNA vaccines will lead to a broader recognition that vaccine manufacturers must no longer be exempt from liability.Redfield is a clinical virologist who, prior to his appointment as CDC director in 2018, spent decades in HIV/AIDS research and clinical care, including service in the U.S. Army Medical Corps and later at the University of Maryland, where he co-founded the Institute of Human Virology.Over the past few years, he's been at the forefront of treating patients who were injured by the mRNA COVID-19 vaccines.In my interview with him, we covered at length the many hot topics and questions surrounding the recent pandemic and our pandemic response, among them:How and why was the true origin of SARS-COV-2 suppressed? What indicators were there early on that the virus was likely leaked from a lab? What did Dr. Redfield know from classified documents at the beginning of 2020?What were the most significant missteps America made in its response to the pandemic?Is there a role for gain-of-function research in America? Or should it be outlawed?What is the future of mRNA technology? Should mRNA technology be used for vaccines at all?Why weren't the vaccine-injured publicly acknowledged and adequately cared for? What kinds of reforms are needed in America's public health system?Redfield's new book is titled “Redfield's Warning: What I Learned (but Couldn't Tell You) Might Save Your Life.”He argues a lab-created bird flu may be the next pandemic. But are we prepared?Views expressed in this video are opinions of the host and the guest, and do not necessarily reflect the views of The Epoch Times.

Dr. Lynn Lafferty grew up around her two grandmothers, both farmers, learning lessons that helped chart the course in her life decades later. Some family stories had a lifelong impact. One great-grandmother was the local healer in her small rural community. When the Spanish Flu erupted, she used an elixir of elderberries and alcohol to treat 20 community members who fell ill with that dread disease. Not a single patient died. Lynn reports that no one in her extended family fell ill from that disease, and attributes their resistance to the nightly dose of elderberry elixir for all family members, which was a family ritual. Dr. Lafferty is an endowed professor at Nova Southeastern University, teaching pharmacy and medical students. She attributes her career choice to influences from her grandmothers, who inspired her direction in life. The life lessons she learned also drove her to seek rational solutions to the SARS-CoV-2 virus when it broke out, causing COVID in 2020. Challenges in Medical Education Dr Lafferty highlighted her concerns about the lack of education on essential nutrients and the influence of hospital protocols over resident physicians. She described a concerning mindset among psychiatry residents who expressed fear of harming patients with prescribed drugs, despite their extensive training and financial investment. Dr. Lafferty also recounted a personal experience involving her brother's inadequate medical care, emphasizing the limitations imposed by hospital protocols and the lack of knowledge about basic treatments like magnesium deficiency. Truth and Love's Transformative Power The Breggins discussed with Dr. Lafferty her experience speaking truthfully about healthcare issues, including her confrontation with a dean over her statements about Lipitor's side effects. She expressed her commitment to speaking the truth and her belief that she is on a mission. Dr. Breggin and Ginger Breggin also confirmed their personal sense of being called to do their work. Authoritarian Control in Medical Progress Peter and Lynn discussed the impact of authoritarian control over medical institutions, highlighting how innovative doctors are being suppressed, which hampers progress in medicine and patient care. Pharmacists vs. Physicians: Education Gaps Dr. Breggin and Dr. Lafferty also examined differences between primary care doctors and pharmacists, Dr. Lafferty declaring that pharmacists are more science-based and less authoritarian than medical doctors. They highlighted how medical students receive limited pharmacology training compared to the comprehensive education received in the past. Therapy, Medication, and Scientific Reasoning Dr. Breggin raised the issue of the importance of therapy over medication for psychiatric and psychological issues and the potential benefits of pharmacists working with psychiatrists to monitor psychiatric drug side effects. Listening to the patient who is sitting in front of you and looking beyond the latest big pharmaceutical options were two important highlights that came out of the conversation. Seeking treatments with the least potential for harm and understanding the range of treatments available in the natural world of foods and supplements were also emphasized. Dr. Lafferty can be found at her website. She offers courses, some free. Her newest training is a 10-session course, held once a week, that gives a basic understanding of how to take care of yourself and your family best. Participants review body systems, how they work, and foods, herbs, and supplements that can help the body return to balance.

  The Breggin Hour Health, Lifestyle, The Breggin Hour https://mega.nz/file/ssYxVKbb#udRyxCNQSvR3ZZC70Dlsj_N0ct1I43isH-6xWra1wxc   Dr. Lynn Lafferty grew up around her two grandmothers, both farmers, learning lessons that helped chart the course in her life decades later. Some family stories had a lifelong impact. One great-grandmother was the local healer in her small rural community. When the Spanish Flu erupted, she used an elixir of elderberries and alcohol to treat 20 community members who fell ill with that dread disease. Not a single patient died. Lynn reports that no one in her extended family fell ill from that disease, and attributes their resistance to the nightly dose of elderberry elixir for all family members, which was a family ritual. Dr. Lafferty is an endowed professor at Nova Southeastern University, teaching pharmacy and medical students. She attributes her career choice to influences from her grandmothers, who inspired her direction in life. The life lessons she learned also drove her to seek rational solutions to the SARS-CoV-2 virus when it broke out, causing COVID in 2020. Challenges in Medical Education Dr Lafferty highlighted her concerns about the lack of education on essential nutrients and the influence of hospital protocols over resident physicians. She described a concerning mindset among psychiatry residents who expressed fear of harming patients with prescribed drugs, despite their extensive training and financial investment. Dr. Lafferty also recounted a personal experience involving her brother's inadequate medical care, emphasizing the limitations imposed by hospital protocols and the lack of knowledge about basic treatments like magnesium deficiency. Truth and Love's Transformative Power The Breggins discussed with Dr. Lafferty her experience speaking truthfully about healthcare issues, including her confrontation with a dean over her statements about Lipitor's side effects. She expressed her commitment to speaking the truth and her belief that she is on a mission. Dr. Breggin and Ginger Breggin also confirmed their personal sense of being called to do their work. Authoritarian Control in Medical Progress Peter and Lynn discussed the impact of authoritarian control over medical institutions, highlighting how innovative doctors are being suppressed, which hampers progress in medicine and patient care. Pharmacists vs. Physicians: Education Gaps Dr. Breggin and Dr. Lafferty also examined differences between primary care doctors and pharmacists, Dr. Lafferty declaring that pharmacists are more science-based and less authoritarian than medical doctors. They highlighted how medical students receive limited pharmacology training compared to the comprehensive education received in the past. Therapy, Medication, and Scientific Reasoning Dr. Breggin raised the issue of the importance of therapy over medication for psychiatric and psychological issues and the potential benefits of pharmacists working with psychiatrists to monitor psychiatric drug side effects. Listening to the patient who is sitting in front of you and looking beyond the latest big pharmaceutical options were two important highlights that came out of the conversation. Seeking treatments with the least potential for harm and understanding the range of treatments available in the natural world of foods and supplements were also emphasized. Dr. Lafferty can be found at her website. She offers courses, some free. Her newest training is a 10-session course, held once a week, that gives a basic understanding of how to take care of yourself and your family best. Participants review body systems, how they work, and foods, herbs, and supplements that can help the body return to balance.       ______   Learn more about Dr. Peter Breggin's work: https://breggin.com/   See more from Dr. Breggin's long history of being a reformer in psychiatry: https://breggin.com/Psychiatry-as-an-Instrument-of-Social-and-Political-Control   Psychiatric Drug Withdrawal, the how-to manual @ https://breggin.com/a-guide-for-prescribers-therapists-patients-and-their-families/   Get a copy of Dr. Breggin's latest book: WHO ARE THE “THEY” - THESE GLOBAL PREDATORS?

Episode 545: Using the Human Eye to Detect Early Alzheimer's and Infection-Induced Brain Changes – Dr. Sean Miller (Yale)

Tick Boot Camp

Overview This special episode of the Tick Boot Camp Podcast was recorded live at the 2nd Annual Alzheimer's Pathobiome Initiative (AlzPI) and PCOM Symposium in collaboration with Pathobiome Perspectives. Hosted by Ali Moresco in partnership with Nikki Schultek, Executive Director of AlzPI, the conversation brings the Tick Boot Camp mission of exploring infection-associated chronic illness (IACI)—including Lyme disease and other tick-borne infections—to the global Alzheimer's and neuroimmunology research community. Tick Boot Camp co-founders Matt Sabatello and Rich Johannesen partnered with Ali and Nikki to highlight leading scientists connecting infection, immune dysfunction, and cognitive decline. This episode features Dr. Sean Miller, a neuroscientist and co-investigator in the Logan Lab with a primary appointment at Yale School of Medicine, who is developing ways to non-invasively detect Alzheimer's-like pathology through the eye. Guest Sean Miller, PhD Co-Investigator, Logan Lab / Yale School of Medicine Dr. Sean Miller completed pre-doctoral work at Harvard Medical School, earned his PhD from Johns Hopkins University, and completed post-doctoral training at Stanford University. His research focuses on neurodegeneration, neuroglia, and early diagnostic strategies for Alzheimer's and related diseases. At the AlzPI & PCOM Symposium, Dr. Miller presented evidence showing that SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19) infection can accelerate Alzheimer's-like pathology and that these changes can be detected non-invasively through retinal imaging. His findings suggest that amyloid-beta, a protein long associated with Alzheimer's disease, may also serve as part of the brain's antimicrobial defense system—trapping pathogens like a mesh or biofilm, but leading to damaging plaque buildup when overproduced. Key Discussion Points Dr. Miller describes how the COVID-19 virus can act as an infectious trigger for neuroinflammation and amyloid buildup, how the eye provides a unique window into the brain, and why early detection is essential to preventing neuron death. He shares how his lab's AI-enhanced retinal imaging research at Yale Eye Center is identifying amyloid and tau deposits in patients with long COVID-related brain fog—opening the possibility of routine eye exams doubling as early Alzheimer's screening tools. He explains potential therapeutic strategies, such as limiting amyloid production during infection flare-ups and enhancing clearance mechanisms afterward to reduce chronic plaque formation. The conversation also explores his scientific journey—from designing Alzheimer's drugs at Harvard and Johns Hopkins to realizing the need for early disease detection during his postdoc at Stanford—and how the pandemic inspired his focus on infection-induced neurodegeneration. “We believe neurons are exposed to pathogens in the central nervous system and respond by secreting amyloid-beta to trap them. Excessive plaque buildup from repeated or severe infections may be what drives long-term neurodegeneration.” — Dr. Sean Miller Why It Matters Dr. Miller's research connects infectious disease, ophthalmology, and neurology, providing a revolutionary new method to screen for early Alzheimer's-like changes non-invasively through the human eye. His work suggests that infections like COVID-19 may trigger the same protective—but damaging—immune responses implicated in chronic conditions such as Alzheimer's disease and infection-associated cognitive decline. About the Event The interview took place at the 2nd Annual Alzheimer's Pathobiome Initiative (AlzPI) and Philadelphia College of Osteopathic Medicine (PCOM) Symposium, held on October 3, 2025, at Ohio University in Dublin, Ohio. The event brought together more than 20 global researchers exploring how microbes, the microbiome, and the immune response contribute to Alzheimer's, dementia, PANS/PANDAS, and infection-associated chronic illnesses (IACI). Tick Boot Camp partnered with Ali Moresco and Nikki Schultek to share the voices of researchers advancing the field of infection-associated chronic illness. This episode is part of a multi-part Tick Boot Camp series highlighting how pathobiome and microbiome science are transforming the understanding of Lyme disease, infection, and neurodegeneration.

“Over 220 global FOIs done to various governments, universities & scientists/scientific depts asking them to provide evidence of these " Viruses".... None of them can - including Wuhan!”Join us for a live King Hero interview with Canadian champion in the no-virus war, Christine Massey, to see behind the scenes in her life.We'll talk about where she was at in 2020, what motivated her to pull back the “virus” wizard's curtain, and how she's managed on the front lines of this war.Bio:Christine Massey is a former statistician from Canada who has become known for her extensive use of Freedom of Information requests to investigate the scientific evidence for the existence of SARS-CoV-2 and other alleged viruses. She began her inquiries in early 2020 after becoming skeptical of the official narrative surrounding the alleged COVID-19 pandemic, drawing on her background which included activism against water fluoridation, which taught her to question public health claims. Her research focuses on whether health institutions can provide essential foundational evidence for the existence of alleged viruses, as well as for contagion and the claimed pathogenicity of any bacteria.Website: https://www.fluoridefreepeel.caFB: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100084768107639Substack: https://substack.com/@christinemasseyfois1 ***Bumper music by Liam Martens, aka ツSaiko, sub to him here on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@SA1KO0O1 ***MORE FROM BETHSign up to take a 10-minute King Hero's Journey archetype quizApply to become a member of the House of Free WillRumbleKing Hero Telegram ChannelTwitter (X)InstagramSign up for a Hero's Journey Archetype ReadingOrder a copy of my book, ‘Journey: A Map of Archetypes to Find Lost Purpose in a Sea of Meaninglessness'Donate by PayPal if you're inspiredFollow the King Hero's Journey Podcast on... Apple Podcasts Spotify ***And if we're just meeting...I'm Beth Martens, a pattern hunter, archetype reader, podcaster, author, coach trainer, and business coach, and my calling is a life or death thing.

And I went from dying to living practically overnight.Today I help people who love the truth more than their beliefs, and who want to serve with their life's work and be on their Hero's Journey, to de-program the beast system and stop making it easy for those trying to kill us.I host regular King Hero interviews highlighting leaders, entrepreneurs, movement makers, and lovers of freedom.

The scenario focuses less on virology and more on the communication and medical countermeasure (MCM) dilemmas that arise while an existing drug is repurposed for treatment and a novel vaccine is developed, tested, authorized, produced, and distributed amid public mistrust, social fragmentation, and active misinformation. The exercise is explicitly intended to probe risk-communication challenges around MCMs. Mysteriously, all herein that was declared to be fiction became non-fictional 3 years following with emergence of COVID-19(SARS COV 2).To support the [Show] and its [Research] with Donations, please send all funds and gifts to :$aigner2019 (cashapp) or https://www.paypal.me/Aigner2019 or Zelle (1-617-821-3168).

This episode was recorded in 2021.Peter McCullough is an American internist, cardiologist, and epidemiologist. In fact, he's one of the most published and cited medical researchers in the United States.During the fake pandemic, he played a leading role by developing early treatment protocols, managing cardiovascular complications from the alleged virus and "vaccines".He also co-founded the McCullough Foundation to support research on these issues, contributing to studies on vaccine-related myocarditis and other effects.His work sparked controversy (obviously), leading to the revocation of his board certification.I no longer believe there was a pandemic. In fact, I no longer believe there was either a virus called SARS-CoV-2 or a disease called COVID-19. But that doesn't mean Peter's treatments didn't work—I can take an aspirin for a headache without knowing its cause, and it will work.Peter appeared on my podcast a few times.

Compared with the unvaccinated, those receiving ≥1 dose showed a significantly lower likelihood of all-cause death Cancer hospitalization was significant only among the subjects with no previous SARS-CoV-2 infection Some cancer risks went down after 1 year (relative to 180 days) (But breast, ovarian and bladder went up at one year relative to 180 days after 1 vaccine dose) Given that it was not possible to quantify the potential impact of the healthy vaccinee bias and unmeasured confounders, these findings are inevitably preliminary.
