Northwestern Now- COVID patients breathe large amounts of virus early on

Vaccinated and unvaccinated patients exhale similar levels of virus over the course of infection, the research shows.

MedRxiv- Quantity of SARS-CoV-2 RNA copies exhaled per minute during natural breathing over the course of COVID-19 infection

We further found that levels of exhaled viral RNA increased with self-rated symptom-severity, though individual variation was high. Levels of exhaled viral RNA did not differ across age, sex, time of day, vaccination status or viral variant. Our data provide a fine-grained, direct measure of the number of SARS-CoV-2 viral copies exhaled per minute during natural breathing—including 312 breath specimens collected multiple times daily over the course of infection—in order to fill an important gap in our understanding of the time course of exhaled viral loads in COVID-19.

“Everything that Anthony Fauci and his cohorts, these other virologists were saying publicly, they were saying the opposite privately,” Paul said. “Then it turns out that many of the people that were appointed to be part of this all had quiet interests that they weren’t willing to reveal. Including Anthony Fauci. When I asked him directly under oath whether or not he was receiving royalties from any of the companies manufacturing vaccines, he refused to answer. When I asked him whether anybody on the committee was receiving royalties he lashed out and accused me of something but would never answer the question.”

Three years ago, the principle of informed consent was unceremoniously dumped as a guidepost for public health matters. Most of the population seemed to have nearly limitless confidence in those who employed central planning to manage a pandemic response. Despite the subsequent train wreck, we are still seeing many individuals professing shock that they have been misled, once again.

When Brad MacLeod visited a pharmacy in Ancaster last week to get a COVID-19 vaccination, he was quite pleased. It was his sixth shot. But that happiness turned to alarm the next morning when MacLeod checked his vaccine certificate and realized he had received the same bivalent COVID-19 shot he received last November instead of the one he wanted — the new monovalent vaccine targeting the XBB.1.5 subvariant.

And who knew that the U of T has a Faculty of Information?

“There’s so much confusion around emerging variants and new vaccines and which protects against which that it’s very difficult for experts to stay abreast of what’s going on,” said Colin Furness, assistant professor with the University of Toronto’s Faculty of Information…

Naivete mindedness

nannystate Safe and Effective Vast Right Wing Conspiracy 8 Comments

As SDA readers are well aware of, any conservative or libertarian who challenges popular narratives on almost any topic is bound to be branded a conspiracy theorist these days. In this talk, Dr. Philip McMillan notes that academia seems to be going all out to create new terms like “conspiracy mindedness” in an effort to attack ideas that they don’t like. In rebuttal, he proposes a new term that deserves to gain some traction: naivete mindedness.

“It would be very interesting if they did a similar conspiracy theory scale looking at a naivete mindedness scale so they look at the opposite end: those people who don’t question anything, who go along completely with what they’re told even if what they’re told doesn’t necessarily make sense… that’s the naivety minded sense and it would be interesting to see what the outcomes of those kinds of research would be anyway.”

British physician and medical researcher Dr. Philip McMillan has been a vocal critic of the Covid pandemic response since day one. In this thirty minute presentation, he looks at some disturbing trends he currently sees in highly vaccinated populations. The problem, as he sees it, is that the overwhelming reliance on vaccines as a means of fighting Covid essentially means that we have one tool in the drawer and little else.

“I don’t think the world is properly prepared for what this could look like…. I mean [the] immune system gets destroyed bit by bit the more shots you take….your immune system is like an army with multiple facets… [it] has an Air Force it has a Navy it has the army on the ground it has the Marines it has the paratroopers and what I think we’re seeing is that you are putting all of your resources into only one group: your army…. it’s kind of like building up your paratroopers numbers so that they’re in the millions and you’re not spending any money on your Navy or your Air Force and then what happens is that you are not prepared for different kinds of enemies….so it’s not that the immune system is weaker I just think that the immune system has been focused in a way that makes it difficult to be able to neutralize… what we’re seeing…”

Vinay Prasad;

The Biden administration asked Marion Gruber and Phil Krause at FDA to approve the initial booster (dose 3) for all ages. They refused, and ultimately resigned citing political pressure. Since then, many colleges and universities mandated this controversial decision and later the bivalent booster in young adults— despite uncertainty about net effect.

This fall, one more unproven dose marches forward. A new shot is scheduled to debut this month. In the US, CDC has hinted it will be pushed down to 6 months of age. Meanwhile, the UK and Australia advise it only to 65+. This difference is staggering.

These facts paint a concerning picture that the US policy is unjustified. Paul Offitt maker of the RotaVax agrees. He says in Science, that he, aged 72, will not get the fall booster.

Oxford Academic- Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) Naturally Acquired Immunity versus Vaccine-induced Immunity, Reinfections versus Breakthrough Infections

SARS-CoV-2-naive vaccinees had a 13.06-fold (95% confidence interval [CI], 8.08–21.11) increased risk for breakthrough infection with the Delta variant compared to unvaccinated.

Naturally acquired immunity confers stronger protection against infection and symptomatic disease caused by the Delta variant of SARS-CoV-2, compared to the BNT162b2 2-dose vaccine-indued immunity.

Frontiers in Immunology- BNT162b2 COVID-19 vaccination in children alters cytokine responses to heterologous pathogens and Toll-like receptor agonists

BNT162b2 vaccination is associated with a sustained decrease in cytokine responses to viral, but not bacterial, stimulants six months after vaccination.

Our findings suggest SARS-CoV-2 mRNA vaccination could alter the immune response to other pathogens, which cause both vaccine-preventable and non-vaccine-preventable diseases (34, 35). This is particularly relevant in children as they: have extensive exposure to microbes at daycare, school, and social occasions; are often encountering these microbes for the first time; and receive multiple vaccines as part of routine childhood vaccination schedules. There are currently no data on the clinical effects of COVID-19 vaccination-related heterologous effects in children.

Alex Berenson- The mRNA Covid jabs damage immune responses to other viruses in children, a new study finds

Kids who got Pfizer’s mRNA Covid jabs had a weakened immune response to other viruses and bacteria, Australian researchers reported in a study published last week.

The diminished response appeared within weeks after the second Pfizer dose, the authors found. Blood taken from the children produced fewer crucial signaling molecules when stimulated with several common potential bacteria and viruses.

Over time, the immune response to bacteria returned to normal. But the diminished response to viruses lasted at least six months, for as long as the researchers collected data. “Our study showed that, in children, SARS-CoV-2 mRNA vaccination decreases inflammatory cytokine responses,” the authors wrote.

Former Cpl. Billy Garrow was as fit as a soldier can get. He ran marathons, including the 50-km military Mountain Man triathlon race — a gruelling test of strength and endurance — three times.

Garrow, 27, medically released from the military last month, is a shadow of his former muscular self — a 218-lb. soldier who at one point had lost 90 lbs.
