Highlights: Any medical treatment must be evaluated along a cost-benefit analysis. No treatment is risk free. It is in this respect that transparent availability of risk-group-stratified data on potential effects of vaccination, as compared to corresponding unvaccinated groups, must be available. These should be analysed by specialists free of any suspicions of conflicts of interests. The publication and unbiased discussion of their results must be facilitated, not hindered. Below I describe several potential negative vaccine effects, including vaccination-associated, documented 3- and 20-fold increases in infection and death rates, respectively.

Customs and Border Protection officers at the Otay Mesa Port of Entry seized more than 1,000 pounds of methamphetamine — worth an estimated $2.5 million — in a shipment of watermelons last week, authorities said. Officers arrested the driver, a 47-year-old Mexican national, on allegations of attempted drug smuggling. It was the second major seizure of methamphetamine at the Otay Mesa Port of Entry announced in the past week. On Tuesday, authorities said they recently found more than 2,400 pounds of meth worth $5.5 million in a medical supply shipment.

A number of 49-year-olds who turned up at Croke Park for Janssen (Johnson & Johnson) Covid-19 vaccine appointments on Saturday were turned away due to being under the age of 50, the Health Service Executive (HSE) has confirmed. A HSE spokeswoman said the National Immunisation Advisory Committe (Niac) guidelines stipulate these vaccines are “not recommended for this age group [under 50] at present”. “When this error was identified we immediately made every effort to contact those affected by phone and text to advise them not to attend their appointment today… We sincerely apologise for any inconvenience caused,” she added. Niac...

Quote from the video; "The Red Cross says anyone who has received their vaccine cannot donate convalescent plasma to help other Covid-19 patients in hospitals. That plasma is made up of antibodies from people who have recovered from the virus, but the vaccine wipes out those antibodies, making the convalescent plasma ineffective in treating other Covid-19 patients."

Home Depot is the latest major retailer to drop its hardline mask policy, following others such as Target, Walmart, and Starbucks. Home Depot is among the latest to drop its policy requiring all customers to wear a face-covering in the stores. Per a spokesperson, fully vaccinated customers will no longer be required to wear a mask, but unvaccinated individuals “must still wear masks in Home Depot stores and in states where mask mandates remain in place, a company spokesperson for the home improvement chain told CBS MoneyWatch.” However, like other retailers, it does not appear Home Depot will ask customers...

ATLANTA — A Channel 2 Action News investigation has found that Georgia Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene and her husband have two active homestead exemptions, which is against Georgia law. A homestead exemption is a big tax break any Georgia homeowner is entitled to for their primary residence. It is against the law to file for more than one. But Channel 2 investigative reporter Justin Gray pulled records showing that the Greenes are getting the tax break on two different homes in two different counties. In a statement, Greene’s office told Gray to mind his own business and called it a...

Election attorney Lin Wood claimed this week that former President Donald Trump maintains a secret backchannel to the U.S. military that allows him to order nuclear strikes. Wood made the assertion during an event in Myrtle Beach, where he was campaigning to become the next South Carolina Republican Party chair. Video was later obtained by PatriotTakes. “He won the election,” Wood said of Trump. “Donald J. Trump is still the guy the military will call for the code if they need a first strike. Joe Biden is not the president of the United States.”

In case you still believe Attorney General Bill Barr was one of the good guys. Nope. Barr was a pretender and he turned a blind eye to the lawlessness of the Deep State. Advertisement - story continues below Bill Barr failed to indict a single criminal in the Deep State after they spied on the Trump Campaign and Trump Administration. He did nothing as good men and innocent men were ruined by the Deep State. Barr did nothing to punish the coup plotters who worked for four years straight to take out President Trump. Barr did nothing as Democrats stole...

Back in February, Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene was stripped of her committee roles, despite her expression of "regret" for some of her more extreme views. One of the charges against Rep. Greene is that she has supported QAnon, whose central claim is that there exists an elite whose members exercise political power and who indulge in promiscuity and other corrupt forms of behavior. In a Washington Post article co-written by Isaac Stanley-Becker and Rachel Bade, Greene was dismissed as having endorsed the "baseless theory" of QAnon. Stanley-Becker and Bade devoted most of their article to critiquing QAnon rather than addressing...

Since the outbreak of Covid-19, many people have been trying home-made remedies to boost their immunity. In a recent video, it was claimed that two drops of lemon in the nose could “completely kill” the coronavirus in the body. The Press Information Bureau (PIB) has shared a post about this viral video, saying that there was no scientific basis to the claim.

The decision to get a Covid vaccine is not “Republican” nor “Democrat.” And more importantly the divide is not along “Pro-Science” or “Anti-Vax.” There are plenty of individuals who have no problem getting flu shots or wearing masks, but are holding off on getting a Covid shot. There are parents who may get the Covid shot for themselves, but don’t want it for their children. Those who have had Covid already, may want to be vaccinated, but with an adjusted dose of antibodies, etc... Most patients, before getting a prescription or even an OTC med like Tylenol, are given proper...

So what is next? It’s not a question of the vaccine. You may want the vaccine for yourself and your children, you may not. It’s a question of being forced to take it. And if we allow ourselves to be forced to take it, what next? Anything is the answer to that question. If the authorities are permitted to control a health care decision this intimate — if they can force you and your children to take a vaccine you don’t want and are afraid of — what can’t they do? Nothing. They’ll have total power over your body and...

DENVER—Several members of a bizarre spiritual group called “Love Has Won” have been taken into custody after the badly decaying body of the group’s leader was found in its headquarters. Amy Carlson, 45, whose followers call her “Mother God,” was found dead in a mobile home in Casada Park, west of Crestone.

The federal government’s decision to pause Johnson & Johnson vaccines for 11 days as scientists studied dangerous blood clotting episodes may ultimately boost confidence in vaccine safety, Dr. Anthony Fauci, chief medical adviser to President Joe Biden, said Sunday.

The former president is on board with the campaign to get more people immunized so the city can get up and running at full speed. New York Post cover for Thursday, April 22, 2021. “I’m all in favor of the vaccine,” Trump said Thursday. “It’s one of the great achievements, a true miracle, and not only for the United States.

Rep. Matt Gaetz was a central figure in Justice Department drama last year, when he told President Donald Trump about a plan that would open the door for a state-wide voter fraud investigation in his home state of Florida. Politico reported Tuesday that Attorney General Bill Barr threatened U.S. Attorney Larry Keefe after Keefe told Gaetz about a legal theory that would green-light such a probe - and then Gaetz repeated it to Trump. 'If I ever hear of you talking to Gaetz or any other congressman again about business before the department, I am going to f***ing fire your...

A New Jersey man has been indicted on felony charges following his arrest last month in connection with the 2019 vandalism at the America’s Stonehenge site in Salem. Mark L. Russo, 51, of 1108 Kings Highway in Swedesboro, N.J., faces two counts of burglary and one count of criminal mischief for his alleged role in the carving damage that led to a 15-month investigation involving social media sleuthing to find him. The indictments allege that Russo entered a secured section of the archaeological site on Sept. 28, 2019, with the intention of committing criminal mischief and criminal threatening by “carving...
