Vaccine mandates have, rightly, all but disappeared across Canada — but some universities seem intent on bringing them back.
This week, Western University announced (of course, after students had already paid tuition) that it’ll mandate masking and at least one vaccine booster dose in classrooms this fall. A few weeks ago, the University of Toronto ruled students must have at least one booster dose to live in its residences.
A Ford government appointee who openly questioned the province’s pandemic policies and called the education minister “incompetent” has resigned his post as an advisor to Premier Doug Ford.
Jamil Jivani was appointed as Ontario’s first community opportunities advocate in 2019, a newly created position that came with a $500 per diem and could pay as much as $72,000 a year.
An independent group of volunteer scientists and public health experts who have advised the Ford government on the response to the COVID-19 pandemic since July 2020 has been informed that it will be dissolved as of next month.
The Ontario Science Advisory Table has released a statement confirming that it was told by Public Health Ontario last week that its work will be discontinued as of Sept. 6.
Ottawa Police shut down SIDS investigation by Detective Helen Grus
“If other (Ottawa Police officers) did not consider whether the vaccine could have had an impact in these nine Sudden Infant Deaths, then I say that their investigations were incomplete, maybe even shoddy.”
COVID-19 vaccine maker Moderna is suing Pfizer and the German drugmaker BioNTech, accusing its main competitors of copying Moderna’s technology in order to make their own vaccine.
Moderna said Friday that Pfizer and BioNTech’s vaccine Comirnaty infringes on patents Moderna filed several years ago protecting the technology behind its preventive shot, Spikevax. The company filed patent infringement lawsuits in both U.S. federal court and a German court.
A Pfizer spokeswoman declined to comment, saying the company had not been served with a copy of the litigation.
The biggest battle in the war on ivermectin was won by Pharma at the WHO and has since caused millions of preventable deaths. I had a front row seat to how it all unfolded.
Megyn Kelly unloaded on Dr. Anthony Fauci during her Wednesday podcast, using a four-letter expletive while demanding that he abide by a Congressional subpoena from Republican lawmakers if the GOP takes control of the House of Representatives.
“F–k you, Dr. Fauci,” the former Fox News primetime star said during her most recent broadcast of The Megyn Kelly Show.
Alberta’s chief medical officer of health allegedly withheld evidence alluding to the possible dangers of mandating mask requirements for children, according to a new court application by the Justice Centre for Constitutional Freedoms (JCCF).
Deena Hinshaw, who has served as Alberta’s chief medical officer since 2019, allegedly received a memo in February 2022 from then-Premier Jason Kenney’s office stating a number of possible adverse health effects that children could suffer as a result of masking.
The news has frustrated students and some are fighting back, including graduate student Kendra Hancock, who launched the Enough is Enough Western campaign.
The campaign is calling on the university to reverse course and drop both its mask and booster mandate – giving students the option to choose.
“We’re doing something controversial… believing in an adult’s right to choose,” reads a tweet from the campaign.
CDC Director Rochelle Walensky acknowledged on Tuesday that the nation’s leading public health agency fell short in its response to the COVID-19 pandemic, outlining sweeping changes that will make the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention better positioned to respond to emerging health threats in the future.
Walensky last week announced an organizational “reset” for the organization, outlining several changes she plans to implement in the coming years to rectify the CDC’s “numerous” failures throughout the COVID pandemic.
Anthony Fauci is ending his long and celebrated government career by being widely lauded for getting so much so very wrong on Covid-19.
Now 81 years old, Dr. Fauci has spent 38 years as head of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, part of the National Institutes of Health. He has been rightly honored for his many contributions over the decades, most notably during the fight against AIDS, for which he was awarded a Presidential Medal of Freedom by George W. Bush. But to Covid-19 he brought a monomaniacal focus on vanquishing a single virus, whatever the cost—neglecting the damage that can follow when public health loses sight of the public’s health.
Western University in London, Ontario has become the first postsecondary institution in Canada to impose a three-dose vaccine mandate on students and staff. The school announced yesterday – just two weeks before classes start – that everyone must be triple-jabbed to come to campus.
“The next chapter of his career? He’s only 81,” Carlson said. “Some of us had hoped he’d be around another 40 years, but he’s leaving so soon, too soon. Why? What’s going on here? You hate to think politics could affect Tony Fauci’s judgment as a scientist.”
Paul issued a letter — the contents of which were first published by The Daily Caller — to the NIH, asking that they preserve all records, e-mails, electronic documents, and data that Fauci may have created or shared while at the NIH. Paul asked that they take special care to preserve any data or communications relating to COVID or to any coronavirus-related research conducted by the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) while Fauci held the top spot.
Recently, a government report revealed that COVID-19 relief efforts led to possibly the largest fraud in the history of America.
The Washington Post reported that unemployment benefits of an estimated $163 billion were paid to undeserving individuals due to either error or fraud.
According to the program, migrant students will receive backpacks full of supplies, mental health counseling, and enrollment assistance as they choose which schools to attend. These families will also have access to shelters and lodging, and the city will prioritize school bus “routing for all students in temporary housing.” The city also says it will coordinate with its Department of Youth & Community Development “to prioritize after-school enrollment for students/ families impacted communities.”
Under the “Vaccinations” section, the plan stated that the government will “link these families to [Federally Qualified Health Clinics] and health centers not just for immunizations but also for on-going pediatric care.”
The city advised families, “As a reminder, students in temporary housing are excluded from immunization requirements as part of their right to immediate enrollment.”
