CDC wants real-time data on COVID, flu vaccine effectiveness; The public health agency aims to increase its use of real-time data to track the effectiveness of respiratory vaccines and is looking for possible vendor solutions.

The Centers for Disease Control are looking for new ways to determine the effectiveness of vaccines against seasonal respiratory diseases like COVID-19, and think the answer could be found in leveraging electronic health record data.

The agency issued its Fiscal Year 2023 Broad Agency Announcement on Wednesday, calling for vendors to provide white papers outlining solutions that address 37 research topics posed by the CDC.

“This effort will address knowledge gaps regarding the preventive benefit of currently available vaccines; aid in identification of populations who can benefit from enhanced vaccine strategies; and improve our ability to respond to seasonal respiratory virus epidemics and pandemic threats by utilizing near real-time, highly accurate electronic data from integrated health care systems,” agency officials said in a post on SAM.gov Wednesday.

CDC officials are looking for ways to use real-time data to track how effective the virus strains used in vaccines are. Traditional campaigns rely on resource-intensive methods that produce small-sample data, such as patient interviews and abstract medical records data, but now the agency is looking to increase its sample data and reduce response times with more robust data sources.

By tapping EHR data — and combining it with other sources like “medical records, laboratory, pharmacy, vaccination registry, claims data and vital statistics records” — officials aim to broaden the aperture on both vaccination status and effectiveness to be able to respond more quickly to public health crises.

“Developing and validating automated and standardized methods to extract large amounts of data from electronic health records will improve the timeliness and efficiency of vaccine effectiveness estimates, and the ability to produce more precise estimates by product-type and within subgroups of interest,” the SAM.gov post said.

Interested vendors can take part in a process that begins with a technical dialogue with the CDC point of contact on the topic, followed by the submission of a four-page white paper outlining the scientific and technical aspects of a potential research project, a formal research proposal and contract award. Potential awards will be based on cost realism, reasonableness and fund availability.

Priority will be given to proposals that can demonstrate integrated health care systems with previously validated data sources and automated data extraction methods, systems that use a high frequency of clinical testing for the respiratory viruses, systems with ready access to complete COVID-19 and influenza vaccination data and the ability to validate capture of vaccination records and, for certain objectives, the ability to enumerate a source population and to follow patients over time, as well as link maternal and child records.

White papers must be submitted electronically by 3 p.m. EST on Feb. 3 to be considered.

My mom tested positive recently from a test given to her at her doctor’s office. She immediately started getting a prerecorded robocall every morning at 2:30 AM on her cell phone from the State Department of Health. Thanks a whole lot Doc!

They started by trying to block the phone number, but then they started getting an “Amber” style alert. I had to disable all alerts on her phone and erase and turn off all alarms before this middle of the night nuisance finally was taken care of. It was ridiculous! Of course, now if some legitimate message is trying to be sent out... she won’t get it on her phone. How stupid are government bureaucrats?

Well, whatever they find out will be run through a sifter not once, but twice.
Then we will hear only what they want us to hear.

I know of people who got positive test results from a hospital and a "clinic" and started getting those calls. On the surface, it was for "contact tracing" and "dissemination of information" i.e. don't leave home for 10 days, wear a mask, yada yada yada.

This article points to more devious uses of this data.

Odd...it used to be that civil liberties were raped under the lie of "it's for the children." Now it is in the name of Public Health. I guess the statists feel "it's for the children" is no longer weaponizable. Maybe they're projecting.

If government can control your body, they can control your mind.

They’ll never give up. I wrote a song about all of this under my comments below. Sing along. Once you see how corrupt and deadly these rogue governments are, singing it will actually make you feel better.

Government is basically made to kill people. That’s one thing they do very well. Why was the U.S. federal government created in the 1780’s? To kill people. Only the people it was created to kill were those of any foreign country that would invade America. The Feds were created to protect the people of America.

But the government is like a wolf on a chain guarding the hen house. The chain is to keep the wolf from turning on the hens in the hen house. In this case, the chain is the Constitution limiting the power of the feds. The feds have broken their chain. We’re the hens. We’re in trouble.

Here’s a little diddy about all of this…

It’s a song called, WUHAN VACCINE AGAIN (played to the tune of “Werewolves of London”). Read it through and see what you think. After that, if you want, join me in having fun singing along using the karaoke link below.

Common, everybody sing along…

I saw Klaus Schwab with a Chinese menu in his hand
Comin’ from the WEF in the rain
He was lookin’ for the place called Lee Ho Fook’s
Gonna get a big dish of beef chow mein

Aah-hoo Wuhan Vaccine
Aah-hooooooooooooooo
Aah-hoo Wuhan Vaccine
Aah-hooooooooooooooo…

You might hear ‘em howlin’ around your kitchen door.
Better not let ‘em in.
Healthy young people droppin’ like flies
Wuhan Vaccine again

Aah-hoo Wuhan Vaccine
Aah-hooooooooooooooo
Aah-hoo Wuhan Vaccine
Aah-hooooooooooooooo…
huh!

**** Lead Break ****

It’s the heavy-handed scare
Falsely named Government Healthcare
But it’s actually the Death Protocol nightmare
You better stay away from them
They’ll clog your arteries Jim
I’d like to meet their accountant

Aah-hoo Wuhan Vaccine
Aah-hooooooooooooooo
Aah-hoo Wuhan Vaccine
Aah-hooooooooooooooo…

Wha, I saw the CDC walkin’ with the Queen
Doing the Wuhan Vaccine
I saw Dr. Fauci walkin’ with the Queen
Doing the Wuhan Vaccine

I saw ‘em drinkin’ pina coladas at Trader Vics
Their gig was perfect
Yep!

Aah-hoooooooooo
Wuhan Vaccine
Droppin’ like flies
Aah-hoooooooooo
Wuhan Vaccine

NEVER FORGET what these government werewolves broken free from their constitutional limitations did to them and are trying to do to you.

I’m no longer interested in following what the CDC’s interests are, nor will I be trusting anything they produce in the way of data, results or recommendations.

The CDC and the NIH have the credibility of Bernie Madoff and Sam Bankman Fried, respectively.

Kinda sells internet-connected digital thermometers and produces an "Illness Map" down to the county level. They sell the aggregated, anonymized data to schools and businesses to predict absences and demand. I'm surprised the CDC isn't tapping into this fever data (maybe they are). This has to be better data than what doctors collect because there are probably 100 or 1,000 at-home readings for every doctor's office reading.

Here's the map from a minute ago. There is obviously something wrong with the data. Why would illness risk follow the state boundaries so closely? Look at Washington, Oregon, California, Minnesota, Illinois, Indiana, Arkansas, Pennsylvania and Ohio.

The CDC will distort or bury whatever facts they don’t like. Zero credibility.

Just like COVID being infectious if you are a restaurant worker as opposed to a being a patron.

It would be ideal if they could chip you and vaxx you at the same time.

Who believes the CDC anymore ?

For that matter, who believes the Justice Dept., the White House, the FAA, the CIA, or any federal bureaucracy ?

They’ve got the VAERS data, but they ignore it because it doesn’t give them the answer they want.

The CD wants to spy on people to target certain groups to convince them to get a vaccine. It’s for the common good, and it’s just the start.
