Canada's National Advisory Committee on Immunization (NACI) is recommending provinces pause the use of the AstraZeneca-Oxford COVID-19 vaccine on those under the age of 55 because of safety concerns — guidance most provinces said today that they would follow. The change comes following reports out of Europe of very rare instances of blood clots in some immunized patients — notably among younger women. But 300,000 of these shots have been administered in Canada already, with no reports of blood clots here, officials said. The blood clotting problem also has not been reported in people who have received mRNA vaccines like...

When it comes to consuming matzah, the Jews of the former Soviet Union are in a league of their own. At the top of the chart are Azerbaijan’s 8,000 Jews, who this year are expected to consume 10 tons of the unleavened bread cracker that Jews eat on the week of Passover to commemorate their ancestors’ hurried flight out of Egypt. That’s a provision of 2.7 pounds per person — a ratio that’s nearly three times what’s on stock for the average soldier in the Israeli army. In Russia, home to about 155,000 Jews, the rate of consumption is somewhat...

If Ron DeSantis isn’t setting himself up for 2024, he’s doing a really good job at looking like he is. The Governor of Florida has been hitting all the rights notes since narrowly defeating Andrew Gillum in 2018. DeSantis has separated himself as the best governor in the country when it comes to handling COVID, having kept his state open with a below-average death rate and a booming economy.DeSantis has also stepped up to the plate on other issues like big tech. Now, he’s got an answer for Biden’s “vaccine passport” idea, and it’s exactly what you’d expect from someone...

Researchers may have found an explanation for the rare but serious blood clots reported among some people who received AstraZeneca's COVID-19 vaccine. They believe the phenomenon is similar to one that rarely occurs with a blood thinning drug called heparin, called heparin-induced thrombocytopenia (HIT). In HIT, the drug triggers the immune system to produce antibodies that activate platelets, which cause blood to clot. Drugs other than heparin can cause clotting disorders that strongly resemble HIT, and researchers suspect that in rare cases, the AstraZeneca vaccine may be another such trigger. Four previously healthy individuals who got the AstraZeneca shot and...

Y’all, I’m old enough to remember when the Journalism-Industrial Complex went berserk when it thought a teenage boy in a MAGA hat gave the stink-eye to an elderly Indian. Heck, I’m even old enough to remember when a white Southern Baptist sex-obsessed incel went berserk and shot up massage parlors where prostitution is on the menu, and where he had been to seeking service in the past, the Journalism-Industrial Complex crapped its pants over the Racist Implications Of It All. Well, in Our Nation’s Capital™ the other day, two teen girls — a 13-year-old and a 15-year-old — allegedly tazed...

Earlier today, Joe Biden blasted governors who had relaxed restrictions and/or mask mandates on the Wuhan coronavirus, asking that they reinstate their mandates.Even though he was reading, he seemed tired and rambling.Biden’s call for mask mandates comes as CDC director warns of “impending doom” pic.twitter.com/yFMVhSDLua— The Recount (@therecount) March 29, 2021Here, he forgets how long he’s been in office and treats that time as though that’s the only period of time in which we have been fighting the virus, under him.Biden, looking tired and slurring his words, starts whispering at the end of remarks on Covid vaccines: "We have an...

Rarely do political reversals rise to the level of comedy, especially in 2021. Nevertheless, in a plaintive open letter to Joe Biden and congressional Democrats, Pro Life Evangelicals for Biden delivered in spades. Yet, there is much more than just comedy to the story. The source of the mirth, and what propelled the little known group to national notoriety, was Pro Life Evangelicals for Biden’s seemingly genuine shock and dismay that after publicly supporting him as a candidate, Biden now seemed to be selling them out. The House not only had excluded from the latest Covid-19 relief bill the longstanding...

Life is difficult, but we must always remember that the Lord reigns and be vigilant about preparing for His Second Coming, His Holiness Catholicos-Patriarch Ilia II of Georgia preached on Sunday. “Time is running out and we must be ready for the Second Coming of the Lord,” the Patriarch exhorted his flock during the Sunday Divine Liturgy at Holy Trinity Cathedral in Tbilisi, reports Interpress News. But, “God is with us!” Pat. Ilia exclaimed. Our lives are like ladders—some go up, and some go down, and we must ask the Lord to be with us and bless us on our...

A Hong Kong-based think tank suspected of working as a front group for the Chinese Communist Party has cultivated close ties to Historically Black Colleges and Universities and members of the Congressional Black Caucus since 2014. The China-U.S. Exchange Foundation’s (CUSEF) outreach to the black community is part of a broad initiative to cozy up to prominent organizations in the U.S., including foreign policy think tanks and other elite universities. CUSEF’s activities have drawn the attention of CIA Director William Burns, who testified at his Senate confirmation hearing last month that he cut ties with CUSEF when he was president...

Lara Trump, the daughter-in-law of former President Donald Trump and senior adviser to his reelection campaign, has joined Fox News as a contributor but hasn’t ruled out the possibility of running for the Senate. “I’m so excited, first of all, to be joining the Fox family,” Lara Trump said during an appearance on “Fox & Friends” Monday morning. “I sort of feel like I’ve been an unofficial member of the team for so long. You guys know—it was kind of a joke—over the past five years, I would come there so often that the security guards were like, ‘Maybe we...

Vatican statement on same-sex marriages seen as 'harsh, judgemental'Monsignor Clement Connolly, pastor of Holy Family parish in South Pasadena, gave a 19-minute sermon on Sunday, March 21 at 9:30 a.m. Mass about the recent Vatican statement refusing to approve blessings for same-sex marriages: “The language of the document is harsh, judgmental, and somewhat draconian…. “This document reinvigorates a past reference to say, persons who belong to the LGBTQ+ community are objectively disordered. Who among us would believe that God made a mistake? In the act of creation somehow God must have made a mistake. We have somebody who is objectively...

Just like the COVID vaccines, use of masks (instead of respirators) to block transmission of a virus was only authorized as experimental use. As such, according to law, it must be optional. If we are going to passively allow governors and governments to make this medical device mandatory, what is to stop them from making the vaccine mandatory?As I've mentioned before, both the FDA and OSHA have made it clear over the years that only respirators, not masks, are considered valid PPE to block transmission of a respiratory virus. Which is why mask manufacturers must continue to place a disclaimer...

CNA Staff, Mar 24, 2021 / 02:00 pm MT (CNA).- Scotland’s supreme civil court ruled on Wednesday that the Scottish government’s blanket ban on public worship is unlawful. Judge Lord Braid overturned the ban on March 24 in response to a challenge by 27 faith leaders, alongside Glasgow Catholic priest Canon Tom White. He had heard their challenge on March 11-12 at the Court of Session in Edinburgh. His ruling came a day after the Scottish government announced that public worship could resume from March 26 with a cap of 50 people. Canon White is dean of the City East...

BAGHDEDE, Iraq — Despite the increase in the number of cases of the coronavirus in Iraq, Palm Sunday celebrations went ahead as planned. Thousands of Syriac–Assyrian–Chaldean people celebrated in the Nineveh Plains city of Baghdede. A public procession took place, beginning from the house of the priests and consisting of children, students, and church groups. Those in the procession chanted hymns and carried olive branches to bless them. After marching down the main street, the gathering stopped in front of Mor.

Mask Burning Will Commence In Cooperation With Law Enforcement... American freedom lovers will gather in Ft. Lauderdale, Florida on Saturday April 10 to protest for Face Freedom... “You are invited to the Million Maskless March and Mask Burning, Saturday April 10, 2021 at 3pm at the Corner of A1A and Las Olas in Ft Lauderdale!,” writes protest organizer Chris Nelson, who has organized viral flash mobs at chain stores that re-popularized Twisted Sister’s protest anthem “We’re Not Gonna Take It.” “April 10 marks one year of mask tyranny in Broward County and we will mark that date with a celebration...

Reflections on the deceptive silence of local elections... In November of every even year, American citizens go to the polls. Those federal elections get press coverage, avalanches of campaign funds, public service ads encouraging participation, televised debates and perhaps best of all, partisan labels to simplify one’s choices. The spring and fall elections of odd years like 2021 enjoy no such star power. When we go to the polls this year – in Illinois, for example, the magic date is April 6 this year; the “early voting” period is already in full swing – we have none of those attention-grabbing...

Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) owns an AR-15 for home defense, he revealed on "Fox News Sunday" this week while detailing a scenario in which he would have use the weapon to defend against gangs of looters. During an interview with host Chris Wallace, Graham challenged Democrats and Majority Leader Charles Schumer (D-N.Y.) to bring an assault weapons ban to the Senate floor, claiming that it wouldn't get 50 votes, much less the 60 required to pass it without changing the filibuster. "I would challenge Sen. Schumer to bring the assault weapons ban to the floor of the United States Senate....

Survey of experts in relevant fields concludes that new variants could arise in countries with low vaccine coverageThe planet could have a year or less before first-generation Covid-19 vaccines are ineffective and modified formulations are needed, according to a survey of epidemiologists, virologists and infectious disease specialists. Scientists have long stressed that a global vaccination effort is needed to satisfactorily neutralise the threat of Covid-19. This is due to the threat of variations of the virus – some more transmissible, deadly and less susceptible to vaccines – that are emerging and percolating. The grim forecast of a year or less...
