I just don't have much faith in the medical profession... and with good reason... all the misdiagnoses over the years along with even the wrong blood type... to this day I can't tell you what type I have because the military has me with one type and the Red Cross has me listed as another.
    When someone asks me what blood type I have?? red blood I believe.. My older brother always got a flu shot and every year he got the flu.. I declined any flu shots and I cannot remember the last time I had the flu but it is at least 20 years or so.. .. As far as your blood type?? The military is never wrong.. well that's what I read on the internet so it must be true..

      I never got a flu shot either and never came down with it as far as I know... and if I did... it was mild and thought it was just a cold.

      According to Red Cross... they are never wrong which they then went on to say that... "the testing wasn't as sophisticated back in the day"...

      Hell... that was back in the 90's when Red Cross told me that... I got off the phone feeling like an old man... lol

      Makes me wonder... maybe the military took blood out my right arm and the Red Cross siphoned it out of my left.

          Why isn’t natural immunity a reason not to get vaccinated?

          In all the discussions of vaccines to get immunity (of a sort) from COVID, there is a big blind spot surrounding natural immunity. Studies have shown that natural immunity, the kind one gets from surviving a bout of the actual disease, is superior to the immunity the vaccines may create. The obvious question is “Why are they ignoring natural immunity?” but for some reason, the question is not directly answered. I have a few theories. For a while, there was no easy way to test for natural immunity. When those tests came out, I found that I had to travel 100 miles to get one and that my insurance would not cover the $160. Now, the very new COVID tests are widely available for those feeling ill or curious. They’ve been passing out the COVID tests like candy at the Christmas parade, which explains why antibody testing did not take off. Why should it? If one had COVID as determined by the nasal probe, then one would achieve natural immunity and be good to go, assuming one survives the virus.But still, why aren’t we testing for natural immunity to see who needs the vaccine? It would make sense that those with the superior antibodies shouldn’t need to risk a vaccine that still has some questions attached to it. There are reasons we do not look for natural immunity or even talk about it. The reasons are not scientific.

          The first reason is that testing people for natural immunity as a screen for the vaccine would reveal possibly millions of people who successfully survived a “deadly” disease without any long-lasting harm or even knowing that they had it. The Democrats must maintain the narrative that this virus is a deadly scourge of mankind. People who survive and have immunity without even realizing it make it a lot less dangerous and scary—but scary is important to the narrative. The second reason is related to the inaccuracies in the PCR tests. There are a significant number of false positive tests...but let’s not say they are false. Maybe it is that the PCR tests are too good at finding traces of the virus.

          We don’t know how many people felt bad, tested positive, and thought they had an active COVID infection when it might have been something else. If these people later took a COVID antibody test, they’d expect it to be positive, leaving them free from the risks of the vaccine. What happens if the antibody test is negative? They would then realize that their suffering—fearing death as well as isolation from family and friends—was for the flu or a bad cold. A lot of people would instantly be unhappy when they realized they went through all of that and still are not exempt from vaccine requirements. The most insidious problem is also related to those “too good at finding traces” tests. There are millions of people who have been told they had COVID as the result of a positive test that they took only because they were required to do so. If they were healthy but the hypersensitive test revealed they had COVID, they would have a profound sense of loss: Lost work, time, and money. More than that, they would have isolated themselves from society for two weeks to spare the world their deadly disease. Then, they had to take another test to prove purity with a negative test to return to the land of the free.

          Moreover, through draconian contact tracing systems, people they had contacted had to also withdraw from society. Entire businesses were shut down when one employee tested positive. What if an antibody test reveals that a poorly administered or improperly calibrated test led to a false positive result of COVID? They would be many very unhappy people.Those are probable reasons no one is testing for natural immunity. We cannot know how many survived without knowing they were sick and we also can never know how many were never sick who thought that they were.The testing for antibodies and natural immunity would create the data set that would show just how many people were really infected and with what severity. It might also show the amount of unnecessary disruption forced on our lives and businesses. It just might show the statistics of cases, deaths, and survivability were concocted to sell a narrative. None of that can ever be known.

          No, Pandemic Babies Do Not Have Lower IQs

          In the latest episode of pandemic fear-porn, media outlets have grabbed onto a new study claiming babies born during the last 18 months, in the midst of global masks and lockdowns, have lower IQ scores. A range of media outlets from The Guardian to Fox News grabbed on to the sensational headline, leaving many parents worried but also confused as to how they would even begin to test their one-year-old’s IQ. Thankfully, for parents seeking more answers than melodrama, Emily Oster, an economist and author who takes a data-driven approach to all things parenting, dug into what researchers found in this study, and more importantly, how they were studying these babies, in her latest Substack newsletter.

          Oster notes that at face value, the findings do seem concerning. By studying babies’ cognitive and motor development, researchers converted a “development score” into an IQ score, and found a significant reduction in IQ scores when they compared about 400 children born in the year before the pandemic with those born during the pandemic year. The reductions are so significant, a range of a 49-point reduction to an 82-point reduction, that Oster calls them “unfathomably large,” even implausible. With this red flag in mind, Oster shares a couple of possibilities of where she thinks researchers may have gone wrong in order to produce results that seem so dubious. The most likely of those explanations? Masks.

          The tests during the pandemic were done with the testing staff wearing masks. I’m not anti-masking! But it seems extremely plausible that infants and toddlers in a lab setting would have more trouble following verbal instructions and facial cues from a masked interviewer than an unmasked one. This is probably especially true since these babies would have mostly interacted with unmasked adults (i.e. their parents), so the masking may have been even more of a factor than it would be for an older child who was more used to it.The authors mention this in the conclusion but do not make much of it.
          Of course, there is no way to know for sure how masks changed the outcome, but when studying interactions with non-verbal, expression-reading beings, it seems like a face covering would have an effect. One way to address this would be to compare how babies passed certain development tests that are less affected by facial cues, like sitting, crawling, or rolling, but the researchers failed to include this level of detail. We know that lockdowns and other COVID-19 responses certainly affected both infants and children. Between masking toddlers with special needs, isolating kids from friends and family members, shutting down parks, and the endless setbacks of virtual education, the damage done to children of the pandemic will be seen for decades.

          But IQ? Of a six-month-old? It’s a questionable measure of intelligence to begin with for young children, probably even more so when it’s a baby version converted into an IQ score. Unless the media is willing to dig into flashy “findings” as Oster has done here, they should resist seizing studies just for the clicks of anxious parents who already have enough pandemic-related problems.

            A Look At Scientific Evidence Suggesting Face Masks Damage Your Health

            Scientists have found significant impaired thinking or concentration after only 100 minutes of mask use, correlating significantly with reduced blood oxygen levels in the test subjects.

            As mask mandates and habits return across the United States, clear and convincing scientific data from before and after 2020 suggest masking has negative health consequences that outweighs its utility.Earlier this year, a group of German doctors and biomedical scientists looked at the available data on the negative health effects of face masks, published both before and during the COVID-19 outbreak, as catalogued in the U.S. federal government’s biomedical database, PubMed. They found significant evidence of “relevant, undesired medical, organ and organ system-related phenomena accompanied by wearing masks,” with “clear, scientifically recorded adverse effects for the mask wearer.”

            Covering the airways with masks makes breathing harder, due to the air resistance they generate and the moisture they collect inside. According to one 2020 study: “Ventilation, cardiopulmonary exercise capacity and comfort are reduced by surgical masks and highly impaired by FFP2/N95 face masks in healthy individuals.” Masks also create “dead space” air between the mask surface and the face, which remains trapped at the end of every breath out, and gets rebreathed right back in. Dead-space air is stale, potentially containing 20 times the CO2 concentration of normal room air, along with hundreds of other substances excreted by the human body through the lungs, including toxins.

            Mixed with those are traces of the chemicals, such as formaldehyde, used to make or preserve the masks. Plastic microfibers slough off the fabric, have recently been found lodged in the sinuses of patients diagnosed with irritant rhinitis, and may make it all the way into the lungs.Because of the increased resistance to breathing and trapped dead-space air, masks make it harder for the lungs to remove CO2 from the blood, and to supply the blood with oxygen. Multiple experimental studies with N95, surgical, and other masks, some published in prestigious journals like Nature, provide evidence that all common kinds of face masks can result in statistically higher blood CO2 levels or lower blood oxygen levels in healthy individuals, or both.

            The body reacts to this imbalance by increasing its resting pulse and breathing rates, which can be dangerous to those in poor health. Data reviewed by Taiwanese scientists show the “elderly or patients with reduced cardiopulmonary function have a higher risk of developing a severe respiratory failure while wearing a mask.”

              Is it just me or is it getting harder and harder to distinguish between satire and reality anymore...

              Dallas mayor and city council sucked in by citizen mocking them in hilarious parody of mandatory vaccine policies

              Whoever the man is in the video below, addressing the Dallas mayor and city council by video in an open microphone session, he is one gifted comedian. He pretended to be a resident of the very expensive Highland Park neighborhood, fully supportive of mandatory vaccinations, and then took the logic farther and farther, all the while parodying the mentality of rich, white liberals who seek to force the lower orders into compliance with their diktats.

              The escalating hysteria he embodies in his performance deserves an Emmy more than ex-governor Andrew Cuomo ever did. It is not clear when the council members realized they were being mocked, but the man was cut off with "time's up" while he was in full parody mode.

                            Well here we go again.. Wu Variant " of the Chinese Coronavirus seems just as the Delta variant cases were past the top and starting to decline a bit the world health organization has found another strain to scare the people of the world and even our own world famous camera seeking head of infectious diseases Dr Fauci is keeping an eye on it.. The Covid 19 seems to me is just like a bad case of the flu.. Every year their are different strains and every year they put out a different flu shot.. What I cannot understand is just how the big pharma companies have a flu vaccine just in time for the new strain.. If anything I have learned is the fact that it is generally a five year time frame to fully vet a vaccine to make sure it is safe.. Yet these companies have a four to five year advanced warning of what flu strain will be coming out in the year 2026?? Something doesn't add up .. Now it seems they doing the same thing with the Covid bullshit.. This will never end, Covid will never go away.. All this fear put out by the governments of the world and pushed by the main stream media.. They are controlling the masses..


                            Mu COVID Variant, Possibly Vaccine-Resistant, Most Prevalent in These U.S. States

                            The Mu variant of COVID is particularly prevalent in certain states of the U.S. and at least one case has been detected in every state except one.

                            As of September 4, the state with the highest proportion of Mu cases was Alaska, where 146 Mu cases have been sequenced, according to the Outbreak.info variant tracker. This translates to a prevalence of about four percent.

                            The Mu variant of COVID is particularly prevalent in certain states of the U.S. and at least one case has been detected in every state except one.

                            As of September 4, the state with the highest proportion of Mu cases was Alaska, where 146 Mu cases have been sequenced, according to the Outbreak.info variant tracker. This translates to a prevalence of about four percent.

                            The Virgin Islands follow, with six cases sequenced—a prevalence of about three percent.

                            Hawaii, Maine and Connecticut then follow, with 39, 42, and 73 Mu cases sequenced, each with a prevalence of about one percent.

                            The data site also showed that the only state Mu had not been sequenced in was Nebraska.

                            Outbreak.info collects its data from the GISAID database which enables rapid sharing of influenza virus data as well as COVID.

                            It comes after infectious disease expert Dr. Anthony Fauci, director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), said in a White House COVID press briefing last week that the variant had mutations that suggests it "would evade certain antibodies," including antibodies provided by vaccines.

                            That said, Fauci added that there isn't a lot of clinical data on Mu at the moment and said that even if Mu is slightly vaccine resistant, "vaccines still are quite effective against variants of that type."

                            He concluded that U.S. health officials were "paying attention" to Mu but "don't consider it an immediate threat right now."

                            In any case Mu is far from dominant in the U.S. right now. The most recent Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) data shows that the Delta variant is by far the most prevalent COVID variant in the country, accounting for more than 99 percent of cases sequenced in the week ending August 28.

                            At that time, Mu, also known as B.1.621, accounted for just 0.2 percent of cases and had not been declared a Variant of Interest (VOI) yet.

                            The World Health Organization classified Mu as a VOI on August 30, describing it as having "a constellation of mutations that indicate potential properties of immune escape."
