TUESDAY, Nov. 29, 2022 (HealthDay News) — For health care workers providing care to patients with COVID-19, the risk for COVID-19 does not differ significantly with use of medical masks versus N95 respirators, according to a study published online Nov. 29 in the Annals of Internal Medicine. Mark Loeb, M.D., from McMaster University in Hamilton, Ontario, Canada, and colleagues examined whether medical masks are noninferior to N95 respirators for preventing COVID-19 in health care workers providing routine care in a multicenter trial. Data were included for 1,009 health care workers at 29 health care facilities who provided direct care to...

merica is about to learn that what liberals actually mean when they claim to support “separation of church and state” is they want to use the power of government to silence those who disagree with them on same-sex marriage. For years, liberals have perverted the meaning of Thomas Jefferson’s “absolute wall of separation” for keeping the state out of the church to keeping those in the church who uphold the Bible’s definition of marriage out of the public square. The occasion for this teachable moment is the “Respect for Marriage Act” now before the Senate. Democrats claim the proposal is...

As we previously reported, in the aftermath of Republicans being projected to retake control of the House, Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) made it official Thursday in declaring she would “not seek reelection to Democratic leadership in the next Congress.” “For me, the hour’s come for a new generation to lead the Democratic Caucus that I so deeply respect and I’m so grateful that so many are ready and willing to shoulder this awesome responsibility,” Pelosi, who is 82, stated as reports swirled that she was paving the way behind the scenes for Rep. Hakeem Jeffries (D-N.Y.) to be her successor....

Pennsylvania election observers filed a complaint against the Delaware County Board of Elections after county officials took a detour on election night with the county’s ballots and v-drives into a closed building for six hours. Poll watchers were prevented from entering the building at the time. The county also deleted 194 voter registrations that were deleted after election day whose ballots were counted. That is the definition of voter fraud. It’s too bad we no longer have a DOJ or law enforcement who will investigate actions like this. They’re too busy plotting against Trump supporters.

The Jan 6 Committee tweeted out a statement tonight threatening President Trump for not complying with their subpoena. This unconstitutional gang of criminals in the House wants to punish President Trump for uncovering their corruption and criminal actions going back years. They hate him for shining a light on their crimes. America needs to stand up and call out these criminals on the Jan 6 Committee. They were accomplices to the deaths of four innocent Americans on Jan 6 and the stolen 2020 Election. This is why they never covered these crimes during their hearings. Now they want to indict...

An in-depth look into the apparent bias against True The Vote by Judge Hoyt in a Civil Hearing. On Monday, True The Vote’s Catherine Engelbrecht and Gregg Phillips were taken into custody after a Contempt Hearing in the Konnech v True The Vote defamation case, which after reading the transcripts, had very little to do with defamation at all. Both Catherine and Gregg refused to leak the name of the third Confidential Informant that was in the hotel room when Gregg Phillips was being shown the PII located on a Konnech database in China, and as a result, were sent...

Union urges voters to support candidates who will re-establish law and order at the border. After another clash with foreign nationals illegally entering the U.S., the union representing Border Patrol agents is urging Americans to vote on Nov. 8 for candidates who will defend them, the rule of law, and the southern border. On Monday, mostly single male Venezuelans, Mexicans and Hondurans crossed the Rio Grande River and attempted to illegally enter the U.S. near El Paso, Texas, and allegedly assaulted Border Patrol agents. The National Border Patrol Council, the union representing the agents, said, "Make no mistake, all of...

Remember the old TV commercials about the Maytag Repairman, whose machines were so indestructible he was the loneliest guy in town? Kamala Harris is Madam Maytag — the loneliest girl in DC. Last year, Harris was a history-making figure who was historically historic. This year, she’s Robinson Crusoe on Mars. The most recent poll gives Harris an approval/disapproval rating of 29 to 63. That’s almost where China’s approval rating (20%) stands after killing six million people. Last week Harris got COVID — remember that disease that killed 600,000 Americans after Joe Biden vowed to “shut it down” — and no...
