The US Food and Drug Administration on Wednesday approved the United States’ first mRNA-based flu vaccine for adults 50 and older, drugmaker Moderna said. “Flu remains a significant public health challenge, and mFLUSIVA provides an important new option for America’s seniors,” Moderna CEO Stephane Bancel said in a statement. “This approval also reflects the ongoing potential of our mRNA platform to help address important public health challenges through continued scientific innovation.” The new vaccine was found to be about 27% more effective during the 2024–25 respiratory virus season than standard flu shots in Moderna’s study, which enrolled over 40,000 adults...

The Food and Drug Administration on Wednesday approved the U.S.’ first flu shot that uses mRNA technology: mFlusiva, from drugmaker Moderna. The FDA granted approval for two age groups, adults 50 to 65 and adults 65 and up, on the condition that Moderna run an additional clinical trial in the older group, the company said in a release. In a late-stage trial, mFlusiva was found to be about 27% more effective than a standard flu shot. Many scientists and public health experts have touted the idea of an mRNA-based flu vaccine, which uses the same messenger RNA platform as the...

Canada has given Moderna the green light to launch a clinical trial for a vaccine targeting the Bundibugyo form of the Ebola virus — which continues to surge throughout the Democratic Republic of the Congo — as experts caution that the outbreak continues to outpace efforts to contain it. Federal officials announced the recent authorization of Moderna’s mRNA shot on Tuesday, making Canada just the second country to launch a Phase 1 clinical trial for a Bundibugyo vaccine candidate after the U.K. This form of the virus was long considered rare and has no approved vaccines or treatments, thwarting efforts...

Health and Human Services Secretary and avowed nemesis of Dr. Anthony Fauci, Robert F. Kennedy Jr., has weighed in on the ongoing hearing involving the wicked doctor.. As The Gateway Pundit’s Jim Hoft reported, Dr. Anthony Fauci, the former NIAID director and face of America’s disastrous COVID response, finally appeared under subpoena Wednesday morning before the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee, which Paul chairs. The hearing, titled “Testimony of Anthony Fauci,” began at 8:30 a.m. ET on July 29 in Room SD-342 of the Dirksen Senate Office Building, according to the official committee notice. This hearing comes after...

The billions of mRNA vaccine doses that went into arms worldwide during the COVID-19 pandemic build on clinical trial data confirming the safety and effectiveness of a vaccine technology now poised to personalize cancer treatment, according to a new review. Dr. Manish Sadarangani, director of the Vaccine Evaluation Centre at B.C. Children's Hospital, and his co-authors combed through published data from laboratory research, clinical trials and real-world surveillance from Pfizer-BioNTech’s and Moderna’s mRNA vaccines from January 2020 through December 2025 to assess their scientific and public health impacts. In Tuesday's issue of the medical journal The Lancet, the researchers highlighted...

Apparently, we can finally talk about it in the mainstream media. For years, we were censored, called names, and polls were done asking people whether we belonged in concentration camps. Half of Democrats believed it should be a criminal offense to question the efficacy of the vaccine. Seriously. Almost half of Democrats once believed that if you were a vaccine skeptic, you belonged in a camp and should have your children taken away. One of my own family members believed that. Other findings from the poll:Other punitive measures in the same pollFrom the same survey, with Democrat shares described in...

The next ACIP vaccine advisory meeting is scheduled for March 18 and 19 to discuss three topics – COVID-19 vaccine injuries, long COVID, and ACIP recommendation methodology. Votes may be scheduled during the two-day session for any of these three topics, which may include narrowed recommendations for the COVID-19 vaccines based upon evidence of injuries caused by the mRNA injections. The federal register notice doesn’t mention any specific votes that will take place. CDC currently recommends the COVID-19 vaccine for everyone over 6 months of age, “based on individual-based decision making” in October after adopting the ACIP recommendations from the...

Senator Rand Paul, R-Ky., introduced legislation this week that would eliminate federal liability protections for vaccine manufacturers, which is a legal shield that has been in place for four decades. The bill, cosponsored by Sen. Mike Lee, R-Utah, was referred to the Senate Committee on Health, Education, Labor, and Pensions. If passed, the bill will make changes to the federal law to abolish the liability shield provided to vaccine manufacturers under the 1986 National Childhood Vaccine Injury Act, which largely protects vaccine manufacturers from product liability lawsuits and requires most injury claims to be directed to a federal compensation program....

Stanford Medicine investigators have unearthed the biological process by which mRNA-based vaccines for COVID-19 can cause heart damage in some young men and adolescents — and they’ve shown a possible route to reducing its likelihood. Using advanced but now common lab technologies, along with published data from vaccinated individuals, the researchers identified a two-step sequence in which these vaccines activate a certain type of immune cell, in turn riling up another type of immune cell. The resulting inflammatory activity directly injures heart muscle cells, while triggering further inflammatory damage. *** mRNA vaccines are viewed as a breakthrough because they can...

Bayer's (BAYGn.DE), opens new tab Monsanto sued COVID-19 vaccine makers Pfizer (PFE.N), opens new tab, BioNTech (22UAy.DE), opens new tab and Moderna (MRNA.O), opens new tab in Delaware federal court on Tuesday for allegedly misusing its messenger RNA technology in manufacturing their vaccines, a Bayer spokesperson confirmed.

By December 2020 Dr. Michael Yeadon knew that the covid injections would injure, kill and cause infertility. How did he know? Because that’s what they were designed to do. They were designed to make our bodies’ cells manufacture a foreign protein that our immune systems would attack, resulting in autoimmune conditions. They were designed to contain a toxic spike protein. And the mRNA injections were designed to contain lipid nanoparticles that cause infertility. Dr. Michael “Mike” Yeadon is a British pharmacologist and former vice-president of the allergy and respiratory research division at Pfizer until 2011. After leaving Pfizer, Dr. Yeadon...

Myocarditis from COVID-19 vaccines is caused by two chemicals acting together, according to a new Stanford study published on Wednesday. “As a cardiologist, we get asked all the time, ‘How exactly does [the vaccine cause myocarditis?]’” Dr. Joseph Wu, the study’s lead author and director of the Stanford Cardiovascular Institute, told The Epoch Times. “We thought it was a very important scientific and clinical question to spend resources [on] and tackle.” When an mRNA vaccine is given, immune cells release a surge of cytokines called CXCL10 and IFN-gamma, which damage heart muscles and cause immune cells to enter the injury...

[H/T Jane Long]The following is Dr. Trozzi's introduction followed by my exerpt of the excellent article of the same name translated from the original French.A comprehensive review of peer-reviewed research uncovering potential cancer-promoting effects of mRNA injections across multiple biological pathways. I’m encouraged to see the old academic towers finally echoing the warnings many of us shared early on, often at great personal cost, about the medical assault and misrepresented injection campaigns.We must pray the perpetrators of these COVID crimes are not gearing up for a second wave of profit, this time by treating the cancers they helped cause. They...

Karen Kingston is a biotech analyst and former Pfizer employee that warned in her very first appearance on USAWatchdog in September of 2021 that the “CV19 Vaccines are Poison.” Nearly five years ago, Kingston said, “They are only intended to poison, mutate, cause genetic mutations, and kill adults and children. They contain advanced medical technologies called lipid nanoparticles that are made of hydrogel, which contain graphene oxide (poison to humans) . . .. There are strong immunosuppressants, different types of chemotherapies that could suppress your immune system while being injected by something that is going to highjack your immune system...

Secretary of Health & Human Services (HHS) Robert F Kennedy's decision to revise the Center for Disease Control (CDC) regulations for the covid vaccine so rankled CDC Director Susan Monarez and her staff that they publicly criticized his decision. Monarez contends that "the successful launch of the mRNA vaccines during the pandemic saved millions of lives. The Secretary's decision to take these vaccines off the list of inoculations that children must receive to enter schools is unwarranted." Kennedy pointed out that "these vaccines bypassed the normal drug approval process. They were never properly tested for safety or effectiveness prior to...

Since 2021, a concerning increase in pilot incapacitations and near-miss incidents has raised alarms among aviation and medical experts, leading to a heated debate over the safety of air travel and the potential link to COVID-19 vaccines. A retired airline captain and immunology specialist, Dr. Kevin Stillwagon, has presented compelling evidence suggesting a correlation between the rise in pilot health issues and the rollout of vaccine mandates. This trend has significant implications for aviation safety and regulatory oversight. Summary of Key Points: -Rise in incapacitations and deaths: Since 2021, there has been a 40 percent increase in early pilot deaths...

MSU researchers discovered that microbes begin shaping the brain while still in the womb, influencing neurons in a region critical for stress and social behavior. Their findings suggest modern birth practices that alter the microbiome may have hidden impacts on brain development.

Covid mRNA Vaccines Are Unregulated Military CountermeasuresmRNA Vaccines DID NOT UNDERGO a legally regulated drug approval or manufacturing processIt is important to recognize that an EUA is not part of the development pathway; it is an entirely separate entity that is used only during emergency situations and is not part of the drug approval process. (2009 Institute of Medicine of the National Academies publication, p. 28)All mRNA products on the market and in development today became available as a result of the declared Covid pandemic, through legal pathways intended for CBRN (chemical, biological, radiological, nuclear) emergencies – in other words,...

As a vaccine for broad public use, mRNA technology has failed to earn the public’s trust.The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services’ decision to wind down its mRNA vaccine development activities marks a necessary pivot in how we steward public health innovations in vaccines. The right path requires us to consider the inherent strengths and weaknesses of a technology as well as any alternatives, along with public attitudes and experience with the technology. The mRNA platform is promising technology. I do not dispute its potential. In the future, it may yet deliver breakthroughs in treating diseases such as cancer,...
