The Dicastery for Promoting Integral Human Development reiterated the Pope's call to the faithful that taking an abortion-tainted COVID shot is 'an act of love' in new promotional material.VATICAN CITY (LifeSiteNews) – As worldwide public health agencies announce a slowing down on national COVID-19 shot drives, even treating the virus like seasonal influenza, the Vatican has released a new video renewing calls for vaccine development and distribution for the novel coronavirus as an “act of love.” “The Pandemic and the Magisterium of Pope Francis” is the third part in a series of materials created by the Vatican’s Dicastery for Promoting...

Pfizer Inc Chief Executive Officer Albert Bourla said on Monday he had tested positive for COVID-19 and was experiencing very mild symptoms. Bourla, 60, said he had started a course of the company's oral COVID-19 antiviral treatment, Paxlovid, and was isolating and following all public health precautions. "I am confident that I will have a speedy recovery," Bourla said in a statement. Several public figures have tested positive for the infectious disease in the past few months including U.S. President Joe Biden and his chief medical adviser, Dr Anthony Fauci.

Dr, Anthony Fauci tried to crack a joke mocking his critics, as the White House chief medical adviser said he was the one who developed the ancestral strain of the Chinese coronavirus. Fauci made the remarks during an appearance at the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Center in Seattle this week to receive the Hutch Award, which is typically reserved for “an active MLB player who ‘best exemplifies the fighting spirit and competitive desire'” of former MLB pitcher Fred Hutchinson, who died of lung cancer, according to MLB. During the discussion, Dr. Larry Corey, former president of Fred Hutch, remarked, “We’re at...

Dr. Anthony Fauci is an inspiration to future doctors everywhere — just ask him. Fauci, the director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases and President Joe Biden’s chief medical advisor, dropped the stunning humblebrag Tuesday in a conversation with Dr. Larry Corey at the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Center campus in Seattle. He was describing a purported phenomenon Corey called “the Fauci effect,” but his explanation seemed to whipsaw between “Well, the so-called ‘Fauci effect’ is when a lot of people want to go into public health particularly, and science, because of the visibility of public health and...

Roger Waters has clarified some of the messaging presented on his current This Is Not a Drill Tour, which includes an image of President Joe Biden with the words "War Criminal" and "just getting started ..." projected to the audience. He addressed the image during an interview with CNN’s Michael Smerconish, saying that President Biden is "fueling the fire in Ukraine." He added: "That is a huge crime. Why won't the United States of America encourage Zelenskyy, the President [of Ukraine] to negotiate, obviating the need for this horrific, horrendous war that's killing — we don't know how many Ukrainians...

Anyone who hasn’t had all their COVID vaccination shots could be in for a difficult time as the colder seasons approach and the virus continues to spread, America’s top doctor has warned. “There are enough people who don’t fall into [high-risk] categories, that if they don’t get vaccinated, if they don’t get boosted, they’re going to get into trouble,” Dr. Anthony Fauci, the White House’s chief medical adviser, told L.A. radio station KNX’s In Depth show on Tuesday. Almost 80% of the U.S. population has been given at least one dose of a COVID vaccine, but only two-thirds of Americans...

Dr. Anthony Fauci’s recent comments on menstrual irregularities met with serious rebuttal from gynecologists, who say COVID-19 vaccines should not have been injected into pregnant women without adequate safety testing. “Well, the menstrual thing is something that seems to be quite transient and temporary, that’s one of the points,” Fauci said in an appearance on Fox News on July 25, upon being asked about the effect of vaccines on menstrual cycles. “We need to study it more,” Fauci added. Fauci is the director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) and has been a frontman for COVID...

Asked if he could go back to March of 2020 and start over with the pandemic response, Dr. Fauci admitted that mistakes were made in his and the CDC's response to COVID's initial spread but refused blame for collateral damage caused by public health officials. What he did admit? That masking and social distancing restrictions should have been "much, much more stringent" than they were. "If I knew in 2020 what I know now, we would do a lot differently," he said during an interview on HillTV's Rising. "We were not sure of a number of things," Fauci admitted, despite...

In an interview Monday on The HillTV's Rising, Dr. Anthony Fauci claimed that he "didn't recommend locking anything down" through the course of the COVID-19 pandemic. Fauci is, of course, free to claim what he wants and spin history however he pleases, but he's not entitled to his own facts.

Defenders of federal officials, including President Biden, who declared one year ago that people who received the COVID-19 vaccines would not contract the disease argue "the science" changes over time. But the White House coronavirus response coordinator at the time the vaccines were developed and rolled out said in an interview Friday she wasn't surprised that people who were quadruple vaccinated, including Biden and Dr. Anthony Fauci, contracted the disease.

Dr Anthony Fauci has performed his latest COVID flip-flop after revealing he now has 'an open mind' to claims the virus leaked from a Chinese lab. The White House COVID tsar, who has long insisted that COVID was likely transmitted from an animal to its first human patient, made the admission during a Fox News interview with Bret Baier on Friday. Fauci admitted: 'We have an open mind but it looks very much like this was a natural occurrence, but you keep an open mind.'

Fauci plans to retire as soon as Biden leaves office as he knows he will no longer be protected. He mistakenly believes that he is above the law and will not be prosecuted for his crimes against humanity. Rand Paul, Fauci’s longtime foe, made it very clear that Republicans will subpoena Fauci if they take back the House or the Senate. Paul is not afraid to come off as a “conspiracy theorist” and plainly stated he wanted to know if there was a cover-up involved. Paul said while speaking to Fox News: “I do fully believe this virus, this pandemic...

Dr. Anthony Fauci announced his plan to retire at the end of President Joe Biden’s term in a new interview published Monday, lamenting Americans were no longer listening to his recommendations on masking or vaccines. [cut] He predicted Republicans would start to investigate him if they take leadership in the House of Representatives in November, but insisted that was not why he planned to retire. “They’re going to try and come after me, anyway. I mean, probably less so if I’m not in the job,” Fauci said. He expressed regret Americans were no longer listening to his recommendations on masking...

CNN — U.S. health officials have been in active discussions with the Food and Drug Administration on whether the agency will authorize a second booster vaccine for Americans under 50 years old, the nation's top infectious disease expert shared Saturday. "Hopefully we'll get an answer reasonably soon," Dr. Anthony Fauci told CNN's Laura Coates. Advertisement Second boosters have been authorized for U.S. adults 50 and up, as well as certain people with weakened immune systems, since March. But for anyone under the age of 50, only one booster is authorized. Fauci's comments come amid a worrisome time in the pandemic...

White House chief medical adviser Dr. Anthony Fauci conceded that COVID-19 vaccines do not protect "overly well" against infection Tuesday on "Your World." DR. FAUCI: One of the things that's clear from the data [is] that even though vaccines - because of the high degree of transmissibility of this virus - don't protect overly well, as it were, against infection, they protect quite well against severe disease leading to hospitalization and death. And I believe that's the reason, Neil, why at my age, being vaccinated and boosted, even though it didn't protect me against infection, I feel confident that it...

White House pandemic advisor Dr. Anthony Fauci has returned to public duties following his own bout with COVID-19, and is warning that the country could face a new viral surge due to 'waning immunity.' On Tuesday, two weeks after his last public appearance in late June, Fauci appeared on MSNBC and joined a White House press briefing by videoconference to warn about the spread of the BA.5 variant, a subvariant of the Omicron strain. He called on Americans to get vaccine booster shots, and said health officials are now 'recommending' people return to wearing masks in indoor group settings. Fauci,...

Jim Smith – whose concurrent roles as a Pfizer board member and Reuters CEO appear to pose a conflict of interest – serves as a board member of the World Economic Forum’s anti-corruption initiative. Smith’s leading role with the World Economic Forum’s (WEF) Partnering Against Corruption Initiative follows controversy over his position at the pharmaceutical giant and mainstream media outlet, which frequently reports on Pfizer. Reuters has published tens of thousands of articles covering or mentioning Pfizer, though the articles never disclose Smith’s affiliation with either entity. Smith serves on the board of the WEF’s Partnering Against Corruption Initiative, dubbed...

Vladimir Putin could be assassinated with a '****ing hammer to the head' in a secret plot by his own inner circle, a former CIA chief has claimed. .. 'Nobody's gonna ask, "Hey Vladimir, would you like to leave?" No. It's a f***ing hammer to the head and he's dead. 'Or it's time to go to the sanatorium. They schwack him for it.

Hoffman speculated that the three key figures who could be behind a plot are defence minister Sergei Shoigu, head of the Security Council Nikolai Patrushev, and the director of the FSB Alexander Bortnikov. He...

Pfizer’s CEO Albert Bourla has said he is working on the creation of a new vaccine against COVID-19 that could be taken annually in order for people to become more “compliant” in taking COVID vaccines. Bourla made the comment at a press briefing organized by the International Federation of Pharmaceutical Manufacturers & Associations (IFPMA), which took place Wednesday and where he discussed the creation of a new COVID vaccine.An annual vaccine to boost ‘compliance’“What the world really needs is a vaccine that can last a year,” stated Bourla. The head of the pharmaceutical giant described this idea as “the optimal...

Rand Paul once again had a showdown with Dr. Anthony Fauci on Capitol Hill Thursday as the senator pushed the nation's top immunologist on whether children are going to need 10 boosters against COVID-19. Fauci, who joined the hearing virtually after announcing Wednesday he contracted COVID, said it was 'absurd' to say that children would need to continue getting vaccination boosters as long as they produce antibodies, which Paul says the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) is using as its reasoning for recommendation. 'The government recommends everybody take a booster over age five,' Paul saida as part of...
