A new study that tested live SARS-CoV-2 against blood samples in a laboratory setting is suggesting that those who survive a breakthrough infection may have some sort of ‘super immunity’ against variants.
“Comply!”
Vaccinated AND boosted Senator Elizabeth Warren, 72, contracts COVID as Omicron variant surges 18 months after her brother died of coronavirus
The progressive Democrat, 72, said her infection was mild and that she has had both vaccine doses as well as her booster shot.
We can only hope…
The CDC Caught in their Own Lies: The Unvaccinated in the U.S. for COVID-19 is “Millions” More than Originally Reported
The U.S. government has overcounted the number of Americans who are at least partly vaccinated against the coronavirus, Bloomberg reports.
Why it matters: Millions more people than initially thought are unprotected as coronavirus infections, hospitalizations and deaths are rising across the country.
Three states — Illinois, Pennsylvania and West Virginia — found enough over-counting of first shots to indicate millions of unvaccinated people had mistakenly been counted as having received a dose.
Take Responsibility For Your Own Life
If you’re an adult, expecting the government to protect you from getting sick at all costs is an abandonment of your own personal responsibility.
‘Climate-friendly’ menu coming to your palate: Mealworms. EU ‘approves insects for human consumption’
The European Union’s landmark decision last week to approve insects for human consumption was a victory for grubs and maggots — and people — the world over. The approval confers a kind of dignity to the lowly, protein-rich microbeasts that we foolishly dismiss as pests, and delivers a clear signal that the insect proteins industry is poised for significant growth. Above all, it paves the way for an alternative protein source that should play a critical role in feeding a hotter, more populous world.
Omicron in Ontario, Part 1: An infectious-disease expert on rapid spread and new fears
TVO.org speaks with McMaster University’s Zain Chagla about lockdowns, the health of our health-care system, and why so much is now out of our hands.
The COVID-19 Passport Microchip Is Here
What one year ago would be considered a crazy conspiracy theory is now becoming a reality.
A Swedish company, Epicenter, has brought forward new tech where they created a subdermal implant to show COVID-19 vaccination certificates. This makes it possible for people to keep their vaccination certificates, right under their skin in a microchip.
Fauci: COVID Guidelines ‘May Need to Be More Restrictive’
National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases director Dr. Anthony Fauci said Friday on CNBC’s “Squawk Box” that COVID protocols may become “more restrictive” with the Omicron variant.
This is now all about hospital capacity — so why isn’t it better after 2 years?
There are calls for Ontario to be plunged into yet another dark winter.
But before we go down that road, here are a couple of points that Ontarians who have suffered so much already should consider.
Trudeau Has “Totalitarian Bent, Democracy Is Failing” Says Charter Founder
Ex-Newfoundland Premier, the Honourable Brian Peckford, is the only Canadian remaining who was at the table when Pierre Trudeau crafted the Charter of Rights and Freedoms in the early 1980’s.
In a recent interview, Mr. Peckford offers his opinions on the Liberal government’s handling of the Covid pandemic.
Peter Navarro is Anthony Fauci’s worst nightmare
Peter Navarro is uniquely qualified to provide an insider’s account of the 2020 events that circumscribe the COVID crisis. He was a senior adviser to President Trump during the campaign and through Trump’s term in office on economic matters as assistant to the president and the director of the Office of Trade and Manufacturing Policy. Dr. Navarro graduated from Tufts, then got an MBA in Public Administration and a Ph.D. in Economics from Harvard.
Dr. Navarro has published more than a dozen books on economic and foreign policy. His China trilogy — The Coming China Wars (2006), Death by China (2011), and Crouching Tiger (2015) — established him as one of the leading scholars and experts on Communist China and its war of economic aggression against America. Trump engaged him as an expert on the China threat, so he was a close aid and adviser on matters of import.
“Trump Time” alludes to Trump’s energy and effort and intolerance of delays. Navarro gives plenty of examples of projects done in Trump Time in this book — projects that made a difference and were expedited.
NY State Assembly Bill A416

Columbia study: True U.S. COVID vaccine death count is 400,000
The CDC’s latest count of deaths attributed to COVID-19 vaccines is nearly 20,000, but a study by researchers at Columbia University estimates the actual number is 20 times higher.
If you are still wearing a single layer cloth mask ‘ditch it,’ head of Ontario’s science table says
At least that is the message from the scientific director of Ontario’s Science Advisory Table, who tells CP24 that there is likely a need for higher grade masks amid the threat posed by Omicron, particularly for frontline workers.
We should be having Omicron sleepover parties – what could be better than natural immunity with minimal symptoms?
