“The CDC’s mostly-ineffective vaccine advisory committee will meet today starting at 8:30AM (EST) to decide whether to recommend making the experimental mRNA covid vaccine part of the childhood vaccine schedule. Then the CDC will ignore the committee and do whatever the government wanted to do anyway. If you’re a glutton for punishment, you can watch the all-day hearing here:

If (when) the CDC approves the drugs for the childhood vaccine schedule, Pfizer and Moderna will immediately enjoy permanent liability protection. Their current liability protection under the PREP and CARES Acts ends when emergency use authorization expires. Thus, childhood vaccination scheduling is IMPERATIVE for the drugmakers, and thus, also imperative for their captured government regulators.
Regardless of whether the CDC approves scheduling the mRNA shots, remember — we’re in a war, not a battle. If the covid shots are scheduled, we’ll shift the battle lines to de-scheduling them.
We will never, ever quit.

A new pre-print study published on medRxIV last week titled, ‘Age-stratified infection fatality rate of COVID-19 in the non-elderly informed from pre-vaccination national seroprevalence studies.’ In the study, researchers calculated the current worldwide ‘infection fatality rate’ for covid. You remember the IFR — it’s the ratio of number of deaths to number of confirmed infections.
Back in the day, you could get canceled for comparing covid’s IFR to the flu’s IFR.
The researchers found, for unvaccinated and for previously uninfected, the median covid infection fatality rates were:
0.0003% at 0-19 yrs
0.003% at 20-29 yrs
0.011% at 30-39 yrs
0.035% at 40-49 yrs
0.129% at 50-59 yrs
0.501% at 60-69 yrs
I probably don’t need to say this, but for all cohorts under 50, these IFR’s are far below the flu. For 50-59, the covid IFR is comparable to flu. And, flu IFR’s are also higher for older people, I just don’t have those figures handy this morning.
Another new study was published this month in medRxIV titled, ‘Effectiveness of mRNA-1273 against infection and COVID-19 hospitalization with SARS-coV-2 Omicron sub variants: BA.1, BA.2, BA.2.12.1, BA.4, and BA.5.’
The researchers looked at the effectiveness of three doses of mRNA jabs to prevent infection and hospitalization from each of the five primary Omicron variants. Although the study authors scrupulously avoid discussing this awkward fact, their table shows that, for all variants except BA.1, the vaccine efficacy (VE) ends up NEGATIVE. Meaning, a thrice-vaccinated person is MORE LIKELY to get a subsequent Omicron infection than unvaccinated people:
You know what you DON’T want in a vaccine? Negative efficacy. It sort of defeats the purpose. And remember, this study included hospitalization, so it addresses the argument that the drugs reduce severity. In other words, if you have to stay at the hospital, I think we can all agree you have a ‘bad’ case.
What’s most ironic about this data is that a lot of people who refused to take the jabs got fired. But it turns out they actually protected their coworkers better than the vaccinated employees did.
Funny old world, isn’t it?”
