San Francisco announced Thursday that it will end its public health emergency for COVID-19 on Feb. 28, just over three years after it was put into place... In an interview Thursday, San Francisco health officer Dr. Susan Philip said that the move is a positive one, signaling that COVID-19 is no longer the “really severe threat” that it was three years ago, but that it does not mean that COVID is over. Instead, she said, it indicates that the tools — including masks, vaccines and treatments — are now in place for people to respond to the virus on an...

Moderna’s fourth-quarter profit tumbled 70% as COVID-19 vaccine sales fell and the drugmaker caught up on a royalty payment. Moderna said Thursday that its cost of sales jumped nearly a billion dollars to $1.9 billion in the final quarter of 2022. That included a $400-million “catch-up” payment to the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases for a new agreement on future royalty sales of the COVID-19 vaccine. In the U.S., COVID-19 vaccines will be sold commercially for the first time later this year when the federal government stops buying the shots.

For the first time in CDOP history, every college campus has been adopted in prayer BEFORE the appointed day. But we can’t stop there. Even though every campus has been adopted, we want to saturate every single campus in America with prayer. We want to see this Generation raised up in revival and awakening.

For the first time, humans with type 1 diabetes, or T1D, have received two treatments called GABA and GAD that have shown promise in animal studies and in isolated human pancreas islets. This clinical trial focused exclusively on children with recent onset T1D. Strategies to ameliorate or cure T1D target the preservation of insulin-secreting beta cells and/or attenuation of the relative excess of alpha cell glucagon. Most importantly, concerning the inhibition of alpha cell glucagon in this trial by GABA/GAD, recent studies in animals made diabetic have shown that inhibition of glucagon leads to expansion of insulin-secreting beta cells and...

An artificial intelligence service called ChatGPT, developed by a company called OpenAI, will give you false information about the 1993 death of former President Bill Clinton's deputy White House counsel, Vincent Foster.

Researchers led by Prof. Neta Erez identified and characterized a new mechanism that facilitates the formation of brain metastases and found that impairing this mechanism significantly reduced the development of brain metastases in mice. Brain metastases are one of the deadliest forms of cancer metastasis. The researchers show that Lipocalin-2 (LCN2) is a key factor in inducing neuroinflammation in the brain. Moreover, the researchers found that high LCN2 levels in patients' blood and brain metastases from several types of cancer are associated with disease progression and reduced survival. LCN2 is a secreted protein that functions in the innate immune system...

Tennessee lawmakers passed a bill on Thursday restricting drag performances in public or in front of children, putting the state at the forefront of a Republican-led effort to limit drag in at least 15 states in recent months. The more than 20 bills nationwide are a pushback against modern drag, which has grown from an underground performance art using costumes and makeup to play with gender norms, which flourished in lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender venues, to a mainstream entertainment, helped in part by the popularity of the televised pageant show “RuPaul’s Drag Race.”

The Biden administration is preparing to sign up the United States to a legally binding accord with the World Health Organisation (WHO) that would give it the lawful authority to dictate America’s policies during a pandemic. The Epoch Times has more. Despite widespread criticism of the WHO’s response to the Covid pandemic, US Health and Human Services (HHS) Secretary Xavier Becerra joined with WHO Director-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus in September 2022 to announce “the U.S.-WHO Strategic Dialogue”. Together, they developed a “platform to maximise the longstanding U.S. Government-WHO partnership, and to protect and promote the health of all people around...

On February 15, 2023, Alabama Secretary of State Wes Allen made an unannounced visit to the published address of the headquarters of the Electronic Registration Information Center (ERIC) at 1201 Connecticut Ave NW Ste 600 in Washington, DC. Upon arriving at the address, Allen found that the location was actually the home of a virtual shared workspace and that no ERIC headquarters existed at the location. “I was in DC for a meeting of the National Association of Secretaries of States and, since I was in town, I went to see the ERIC Headquarters,” Allen explained. “What I found was...

She was transported to a local hospital where she died days later... As part of Shaver’s...

Mike Pompeo’s new memoir might not be flying off the bookshelves—but bulk orders from his political action committee on the day that it was released appear to have propelled it onto the New York Times bestseller list, anyways. Champion American Values, a PAC promoting the former secretary of state and likely Republican presidential candidate, spent $42,000 on the bulk orders of the book on the day it was published, according to a Monday filing with the Federal Election Commission. The purchase was first reported by Forbes. That was enough to get “Never Give An Inch: Fighting for the America I...

SpaceX’s Super Heavy rocket, the most powerful rocket ever built, recently completed a successful ground test of its engines. And now, Elon Musk’s mega rocket is almost ready to take off for its first orbital test flight. The Super Heavy is a big deal in the space industry. It’s a mega-rocket booster in the same class as NASA’s Space Launch System (SLS)—which recently powered the long-awaited Artemis 1 launch—and is on the list of rockets that could eventually take us to Mars. And to top it off, it’s built to be reusable, much like SpaceX’s smaller and frequently launched Falcon...

From the start of the war in Ukraine, the US media continuously claimed "the international community" is united behind the US (that phrase always means: W. Europe and whatever countries happen to side with the US). Today, the NYT recognizes the truth:https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2023/02/23/world/russia-ukraine-geopolitics.html A couple of key paragraphs from the NYT story that deflates and debunks the inspiring and from-the-start obviously false fairy tale that "the international community" was united with the US in support of Ukraine: *** The WashPost has a very similar concession this morning. While all the usual DC militarism advocates -- people like @BillKristol, @DavidFrum and @Mattduss...

Fox News host Sean Hannity asked a 2024 Republican candidate for president a question that has stumped other contenders this week: what makes you different from former President Donald Trump? Vivek Ramaswamy, a millionaire biotech entrepreneur who has established himself as a prominent critic of “woke culture” in regular Fox News appearances, appeared on Hannity Thursday night to discuss his longshot bid for the presidency. “You’re looking for the Republican nomination,” Hannity said to his guest. “Probably the leader right now would be Donald Trump if you look a the polls.

Campus carry has passed in West Virginia, which would let people with concealed carry licenses carry a handgun on public college and university campuses. Senate Bill 10 (SB10) received its final vote on February 21 and will now go to Governor Jim Justice’s desk.The opposition wants the Governor to reject the passage of the legislation saying it would cost too much money to monitor gun owners.“It is the intent of the Legislature,” SB10 stated, “to establish, by this act, conditions under which persons with a current and valid license to carry a concealed deadly weapon may carry a concealed pistol...
