Billions more in profits are at stake for some vaccine makers as the U.S. moves toward dispensing COVID-19 booster shots to shore up Americans’ protection against the virus.
How much the manufacturers stand to gain depends on how big the rollout proves to be.
The Biden administration last month announced plans to give boosters to nearly everybody. But U.S. regulators have rejected the across-the-board approach and instead said third shots of Pfizer’s vaccine should go to people who are 65 and older and certain others at high risk from COVID-19.
People who choose not to get the COVID-19 vaccine due to personal preferences or “singular beliefs” do not have a right to accommodations under Ontario’s human rights law, the province’s rights watchdog says
The decision to get vaccinated is voluntary, and a “person who chooses not to be vaccinated based on personal preference does not have the right to accommodation under the (Human Rights Code),” the Ontario Human Rights Commission said this week in a policy paper discussing the limits of vaccine mandates and proof-of-vaccination requirements.
While human rights law prohibits discrimination based on creed — someone’s religion, or a non-religious belief system that shapes their identity, world view and way of life — personal preferences or singular beliefs do not amount to a creed, the commission said, adding it “is not aware of any tribunal or court decision that found a singular belief against vaccinations or masks amounted to a creed within the meaning of the Code.”
Ontario reports 640 new COVID-19 cases, 10 more deaths
Ontario reported more than 600 new COVID-19 cases and 10 more deaths on Saturday, continuing a trend of declining case counts.
Provincial health officials logged 640 new coronavirus infections today, down from 727 on Friday and from 821 a week ago.
A Canadian COVID-19 study that turned out to be wrong has spread like wildfire among anti-vaxxers
An inaccurate Canadian study suggesting an extremely high rate of heart inflammation after COVID-19 vaccines has been retracted due to a major mathematical error — but not before it spread like wildfire on anti-vaccination websites and social media.
The preprint study, which was released by researchers at the Ottawa Heart Institute last week but has not been peer-reviewed, looked at the rate of myocarditis and pericarditis cases after Moderna and Pfizer-BioNTech vaccinations in Ottawa from June 1 to July 31.
The study identified 32 patients with the rare side effects out of a total of 32,379 doses of mRNA vaccines given in Ottawa in the two-month period, finding an inordinately high rate of close to 1 in 1,000 — significantly higher than other international data has shown.
Well it was Sciency.
That means anyone who registered to donate their organs will not be able to have their organs collected, halting any of the possible corresponding donations.
The head of emergency medicine for the Alberta Medical Association says major components of triage have already begun in Alberta, even though the protocol hasn’t officially been implemented.
More than a week after CTV News asked for the numbers and was first to report on the dual accounting methods, the province now says that as of Tuesday, there were 152 additional patients in hospital due to COVID but who were no longer infectious and therefore had “discontinued isolation.”
“You know, if we don’t get people vaccinated who need to be vaccinated, and we get that conflating with an influenza season, we could have a dark, bad winter,” the White House medical adviser said during an appearance on The Takeout podcast, although he previewed a potential way out.
With a month still to go before Ontario launches its vaccination verification app, concerns are being raised about how easy it is to modify the province’s existing vaccination certificates — potentially letting unvaccinated people gain access to restaurants, bars, gyms and even flights.
According to forensic document examiner Shabnam Preet Kaur, the existing vaccination certificates, which are in the form of Portable Document Format (PDF) files, can be quickly edited to change the name, birthdate and other personal information using a number of easily accessible programs.
On August 27, I wrote a story about how the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) pulled a fast one by making the claim that they approved the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine which kicked off a series of Democrat tyrants formulating plans to mandate Americans get vaccinated whether they want to or not or they lose their jobs. The Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine, along with Moderna, and Johnson & Johnson, were given Emergency Use Authorization (EUA) by the FDA, and vaccines under EUA cannot be mandated by any employer, including the federal government under Title 21, Section 360bbb-3.
My research showed that the FDA’s own fact sheet for the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine that was written on August 23rd, the same day they announced the approval, reveals that Comirnaty was approved and the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine is still under Emergency Use Authorization. They have since changed the revised date to September 22, but the information remains.
Ontario reports 727 new COVID-19 cases, 11 more deaths; 7-day average and positivity rate continue to drop
Provincial health officials logged 727 new coronavirus cases today, up from 677 on Thursday but down from 795 a week ago.
Of the latest cases, 447 are among unvaccinated individuals, 56 are partially vaccinated, 170 are fully vaccinated and 54 have an unknown vaccination status.
Legal Organization Calls on Ontario to Revoke ‘Unconstitutional’ Vaccine Passport Mandate
A legal organization is calling on the Ontario government to revoke its vaccine passport mandate, citing “deep concerns” about the constitutionality of the measure.
The Justice Centre for Constitutional Freedoms issued a letter (pdf) Sept. 22, demanding the government rescind the mandate, which requires Ontarians aged 12 and above to show proof of having taken two doses of the COVID-19 vaccine in order to access a wide range of public facilities such as restaurants, bars, gyms, music venues, theatres and meeting spaces. The system came into effect on Sept. 22.
I was downtown most of yesterday having chauffeured my brother to a doctor’s appointment. Bought a coffee at Starbucks and was asked for my Vaxx papers and OHIP number because I elected to stay inside.
Cheerleaders for gun control have oft-cited Australia as the “gold standard.” Now their government is literally shooting them in the back.

The pandemic was a test of America’s public health bureaucracy. It failed.
Those failures were legion, and they were spread across multiple officials, agencies, and layers of government. But no institution failed quite as abysmally as the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), which, through a combination of arrogance, incompetence, and astonishingly poor planning, wasted America’s only chance to mitigate the effects of COVID-19 before it spread widely.
In comments that appear to have devolved from an agenda used in Nazi Germany, an economist for the Food and Drug Administration is demanding forced COVID-19 vaccinations for Americans.
On Wednesday, proof-of-vaccination requirements went into effect at non-essential businesses in Ontario and New Brunswick. Most other provinces have similar rules in place or soon to begin; on Tuesday, Prince Edward Island become the latest to join the bandwagon, announcing vaccination passports will be necessary to enter places from sporting events to restaurants as of Oct. 5.
