Safe and Effective News #3 (Updated)

 Some recent articles explaining why the lockdowns and vaccinations were so necessary and helpful:

• (Update: removed Fox News article that turned out to be from last year).

• "Bad consequences from the medical profession’s panic/lies over COVID continue to build"--Behind The Black. Zimmerman's post summarizes a few articles concerning the long term damage to the medical profession because of its knee-jerk, totalitarian response to Covid including: trust in physicians and hospitals dropped from 71.5% in April 2020, to 40.1% in January 2024; Moderna's profits from vaccine sales have dropped so precipitously that even with cutting back operations, it is not expected to turn a profit until 2028; and the lack of clinical trials for Covid boosters has prompted the Florida Department of Health to recommend against people having the boosters.
  
• "Lethal drug given to US service personnel – and hundreds died"--The Conservative Woman. The drug in question was remdesivir, an antiviral administered to Covid-19 patients; and it was because of this drug that the masses were prohibited from using Ivermectin. Probably because remdesivir was a fairly new drug and the drug company profits had to be protected. The article goes on to relate:

According to the whistleblower’s data, 941 military service members — 63.9 per cent of those who were treated with remdesivir — died between March 2020 and March 2024, with deaths peaking between November 2020 and July 2021.

• "Your children couldn’t go to school in 2020, but the elites could attend sex parties"--Washington Examiner. The pandemic couldn't have been that bad, then, or those in the know wouldn't have engaged in such activities.
  
• More: "While Your Family Members Died Alone, Lockdowners Had Sex Parties"--The Federalist.
  
• "New Zealand pushed covid vaccination while heart disease was soaring"--The Conservative Woman. Using data from Health NZ and the NZ health insurance industry, the article sets out a table showing the skyrocketing number of people presenting for emergency treatment for heart issues following the roll-out of the Covid vaccines, adding:

    For the benefit of our overseas readers, these figures need to be read in the context of covid incidence in NZ. Because of border closures, quarantine and lockdowns, NZ had close to zero covid cases until February 2022. Pfizer mRNA covid vaccination became available in February 2021 for older people and those at risk. General availability for those under 40 years started towards mid-2021. Legislation making covid mRNA vaccination compulsory for those in various state employment sectors (vaccine mandates) was enacted in November 2021. The mandates were also adopted by the vast majority of private employers.

    With this timeline in mind, the close association between covid mRNA vaccination and chest pain and/or heart disease among younger people becomes very clear. The surge in ED chest pain admissions began well before covid infection took hold in NZ but immediately after the covid mRNA vaccination programme began. The incidence of chest pain and heart disease took off in 2021 as more of the age group were vaccinated.

    While the OIA [equivalent to a FOIA] figures are only by year and for the under-40s, 2021 official weekly figures for vaccination and mortality for all age groups combined, that we reported at the time, show a very close association. All cause death rates rose in tandem with mRNA vaccination.

    The OIA figures suggest approximately a tenfold increase in chest pain and/or cardiac events among those under 40, probably associated with the administration of mRNA vaccines. Moreover the figures to June 2024 indicate the trend is continuing.

• "How Fauci’s inner circle shielded the Wuhan Institute of Virology’s U.S. collaborator"--U.S. Right To Know. Per the article, "EcoHealth Alliance, which collaborated on novel coronavirus discovery and engineering projects with the Wuhan lab," "leveraged connections in Anthony Fauci’s inner circle to survive federal scrutiny and keep millions in public funding flowing without turning over key data, new records show."

     At the time, officials at the National Institutes of Health’s central headquarters or “Building One” — at the demand of the Trump White House — had suspended EcoHealth’s existing NIAID grant and sought lab notebooks and unpublished genomic data as a condition of getting its funding back. This information could have shed light on the coronavirus research in Wuhan before the pandemic.

    But aided by allies within NIAID, millions continued to flow to EcoHealth, and Daszak would not ask his longtime collaborators in Wuhan for information sought by the U.S. government until 20 months later, in January 2022 — two years after the pandemic began.

    Some of the NIAID officials who helped Daszak [the head of EcoHealth] were key to approving his coronavirus research in Wuhan in the first place, including gain-of-function research, research that can enhances the pathogenicity or transmissibility of a pathogen. Some of these NIAID officials had spent years championing gain-of-function research as worth the risks, congressional transcripts also show. Namely, Morens and another NIAID employee named “Jeff T.” were the liaisons between the scientific community and Fauci during the years-long debates about gain-of-function research leading up to the pandemic, one email shows. After the pandemic arose, Morens and another NIAID scientist named Jeffery Taubenberger wrote an editorial defending EcoHealth and referred to people concerned about gain-of-function research as “luddites” and “the complaining crowd.”
