New York City cops who have refused to get vaccines are told they must wear masks, even though they do absolutely nothing. As I reported before, all the studies show that masks are “useless,” as reported by the Washington Post. What is happening is that the resistance to this nonsense is rising. If they fire police for not being vaccinated, aside from the lawsuits, they may lose more than one-third of their police force. Video Player00:0000:40

Even Fauci, at the beginning, told the truth that masks do nothing. Of course, he was told to change that position if he still wanted to be part of the Gates’ club. There is a serious crisis. Those capable of actually thinking do not believe the government is there like Santa Claus to take care of them because they care still represents more than one-third of the population.

Firing all of these people would not just set in motion a new Great Depression when unemployment reached 25%, but we may see this economic decline lead to massive rioting at the exact time they need police forces. Congress would reclassify the army as a National Guard so they could police the streets even in tanks. The unemployment rate reached its historic low during peace times of 3.5%.

The peak in unemployment reached 14.8% during April 2020. Even now, it has fallen back to 5.4%. Businesses are closing because they cannot find staff. The lower-end of employment has stagnated because the unemployment benefits and the bonuses continue as competition against employment. The more this administration extends unemployment benefits and the non-eviction policy, the closer the economy is to being pushed over the edge from which they will be no return to normal. Countless small businesses have signs out saying “help wanted” everywhere you look. A number of people have no incentive to go back to work.

(LifeSiteNews) – In this week’s episode of The Van Maren Show, Jonathon speaks with Cameron Côté, a pro-life activist with the Canadian Centre for Bio-Ethical Reform and co-host of the podcast The Pro-Life Guys. They discuss why more and more young people are becoming pro-life and how they’re effectively changing people’s hearts and minds on abortion.

Côté has worked full-time in the pro-life movement for 10 years, ever since he left academia to advocate for the unborn and train young people. He tells Jonathon how pro-life advocacy on campus many times results in assault by pro-abortion groups, who throw feces and stink bombs at them, and also steal the students’ property.

“When the pro-abortion movement is so polarizing like that, it shows just how normal pro-lifers really are,” he said.

Côté points out that pro-abortion activists never win through argumentation, but rather, resort to violence and attempts to shut down debate on the issue. “All they have on their side is brute strength, arguably to prevent people from interacting with pro-lifers, since the more people interact with pro-life groups, the more often they become pro-life themselves.”

Regardless of these problems, Côté reveals that Generation Z is waking up to the evil of abortion and is wanting to speak up for the innocent and voiceless unborn. He discusses “a new wave of pro-lifers who are effective in changing people’s minds on the issue.”

LifeSiteNews has produced an extensive COVID-19 vaccines resources page. View it here. 

SYDNEY, Australia (LifeSiteNews) — A plan to jab 24,000 Australian teenagers at a mass vaccination site raised eyebrows after New South Wales Health Minister Brad Hazzard advised parents to “stay outside the arena” while their children were “ushered” inside by police officers and nurses. https://static.lifeserver.net/709b1e30a292a046243572436ad0600c/index.html?clickTag=https%3A%2F%2Fservedby.lifeserver.net%2Fcl.php%3Fbannerid%3D80884%26zoneid%3D8553%26sig%3D7a963ec7211d5cb7d678ac605ed0f50ff09fadf55108019445ee8f19cc286ebc%26oadest%3Dhttps%253A%252F%252Fbit.ly%252F3hm5Nxs

In a video that was clipped and posted to social media, Hazzard told parents of teens invited to get their first jab at Qudos Bank Arena to stay outside while their children were given the experimental shot, which has been linked to serious possible side effects for young people, including myocarditis.  

In an August 6 public announcement of the plan, Hazzard likened the opportunity to get the jab at the Super Dome in the NSW capital city to Olympic athletes “going for gold.” 

The health minister said the young people must enter the stadium alone, ostensibly to avoid crowding. 

“If mum, or dad, or one of your family drop you, make sure they stay outside the arena,” Hazzard said, “because we don’t want too many people, obviously, milling around inside the arena.” 

After directing the minors to enter the stadium without parental accompaniment, Hazzard assured parents that the teens would be “literally ushered” into the stadium by nurses and law enforcement officers, including police officers affiliated with the “Youth Command,” a service composed of 120 law enforcement officers dedicated to the “reduction and prevention of youth crime and anti-social behaviour.”  

Once “ushered” in by police and nurses, the teenagers would be “looked after every moment,” Hazzard said. 

According to the Guardian, Qudos Bank Arena, formerly known as the Sydney Super Dome and utilized for the 2000 Summer Olympics, had been transformed into a mass vaccination site earlier this month, with plans to offer the Pfizer jab to 24,000 young people living in eight “local government areas of concern” considered to be COVID-19 hotspots.  

The young people targeted in the scheme were “year-12” students (the equivalent of high school seniors in the United States) who were prioritized for getting their first shot in order to attend school and take their HSC (Higher School Certificate) exams this fall.  

The New South Wales Health Department opened the stadium to broader demographics after the youth vaccination effort was completed.

Despite Hazzard’s apparent concerns about overcrowding by family members during the vaccination effort for the teens, the site hosted “plenty of staff including police and security,” one parent told the Guardian

During the announcement of the scheme, the health minister failed to talk about the potential side effects of the vaccine for young people, who are at statistically low risk of serious complication or death from COVID-19. 

In June, Pfizer added a warning of myocarditis and pericarditis to the fact sheet for its COVID-19 shot. 

The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention is currently investigating the case of a 13-year-old Michigan boy with no known pre-existing health conditions who died in his sleep after getting his second Pfizer jab. 

In May, 18 Connecticut teens were reported to have developed heart inflammation after getting the jab, resulting in their hospitalization. 

Data released August 6 by the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS), which is the U.S. government’s primary government-funded system for reporting adverse vaccine reactions, indicates that between Dec. 14, 2020 and August 6, 2021, a total of 571,831 total adverse events were reported to VAERS, including 12,871 deaths and 51,807 hospitalizations. 

Meanwhile, the care taken to keep family out of the vaccination site in Sydney failed to shield the massive vaccination site from all COVID exposure. 

Just last week, the NSW Health Department issued warnings and isolation advice to Australians who got their COVID-19 shot at the site, after a single person who visited the center tested positive for the virus. 

“A person who attended Qudos Bank Arena Vaccination Hub in Homebush on 10 Aug 2021 between 2.40pm and 4.20pm has tested positive for COVID-19,” a text message sent out by the health department read. 

Those who got their shots at the stadium were offered a COVID-19 PCR screening test after they got the shot, according to a message written by Graeme Loy, chief executive of Western Sydney’s local health district, to parents of teens who got the jab. 

“Students will not have to self-isolate after having this test,” Loy wrote at the time. “In the event the student does not wish to have a COVID test, the student will need to inform a NSW Health Pathology staff member.” 

Nonetheless, the NSW Health Department advised Australians in its text message on August 10 that “[a]ll people there at the same time are advised to get tested for COVID-19 as soon as possible and self-isolate until you receive a negative result. You must get another COVID-19 test on 15 August 2021. Wear a mask around others and limit your movements until you get your second negative result. Monitor for COVID-19 symptoms and get tested again at any time if you develop any symptoms.” 

Australia has made headlines for its uniquely strict COVID-19 protocols since last year, with harsh curfews, bans on travel except for “essential” shopping, and severe treatment of anti-lockdown protesters by Australian law enforcement. 

Last month, NSW’s chief health officer told Australians that to prevent the spread of COVID-19 they should avoid talking to their neighbor even in passing. 

More than 500 Australian military personnel have been sent out domestically to ensure compliance with the dictates of Australian health department officials. 

Media outlets reported last week that an additional 200 unarmed soldiers would be sent out to patrol Sydney’s streets to make sure Australians are abiding by the harsh lockdowns once more imposed upon residents of New South Wales’ capital city. 

Sydney has been under lockdown for roughly two months to date, with the duration of the lockdowns recently extended through September.  

New South Wales state premier Gladys Berejiklian expressed frustration that Australians weren’t more compliant with the lockdown orders, telling reporters she was “a bit tired of hearing people say they don’t know what they are supposed to do.” 

As reported by CNN, Berejiklian said the effort to contain the spread of the virus “is literally a war” and her state was “throwing everything at it” as she announced a snap seven-day lockdown across the entire state of New South Wales beginning August 14. 

According to CNN, “Stay-at-home orders will be applied across the country’s most populous state, with people only permitted to leave home to shop for essentials, receive medical care, outdoor exercise with one other person, and work if residents cannot work from home. Schooling will also be moved back online.”

This is the third part of a three-part essay by Dr. Alan Moy, the founder and scientific director of the John Paul II Medical Research Institute. We encourage you to read Part 1, “A Basic Understanding of the Vaccine Science,” which can be found here, and Part 2,  “The efficacy is overstated, and the safety is understated,” which is here.

Part 3: Strategies for students, parents, and employees to combat mandateshttps://static.lifeserver.net/709b1e30a292a046243572436ad0600c/index.html?clickTag=https%3A%2F%2Fservedby.lifeserver.net%2Fcl.php%3Fbannerid%3D80884%26zoneid%3D8553%26sig%3D7a963ec7211d5cb7d678ac605ed0f50ff09fadf55108019445ee8f19cc286ebc%26oadest%3Dhttps%253A%252F%252Fbit.ly%252F3hm5Nxs

Colleges and hospitals are vulnerable to liability from vaccine mandates

It is apparent that colleges and hospitals are poorly informed about the scientific facts and the legal liabilities that they may incur by imposing vaccine mandates.

These institutions are not aware that the FDA Cosmetic Act requires informed consent for any experimental medicine, as well as the right to refuse treatment and be made aware of the rights to alternative medicines. These institutions are ignoring the health privacy laws governing the Health Insurance Portability and Accounting Act (HIPAA). These institutions are poorly informed that the National Research Act of 1974 requires protection for human subjects from harm, undue injustice, and coercion, which necessitates complete informed consent with experimental treatments. Lastly, the department of Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) has previously stated that institutions that mandate vaccines are subject to required reporting and liability towards adverse events and are subject to liability.

Private businesses and schools should realize that these federal statutory laws pose potential economic and legal penalties if they unduly pressure students and employees to accept what are otherwise classified as experimental vaccines.

Vatican, USCCB have abandoned the Church’s doctrine on morally illicit cells

The 2005 Pontifical Council of Life statement on vaccines represents the historical Vatican position on vaccines that have been morally tainted with aborted fetal cells.  Accordingly, there are four requirements that must be satisfied.

First, the condition must be grave. However, COVID-19 is not grave to all individuals, except to those who have to high-risk conditions like the elderly, diabetics, smokers, and those who are obese or have chronic diseases. This requirement is contrary to the Vatican’s recent position, which urges every Catholic to be vaccinated out of a sense of moral obligation or the common good despite the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith’s recent and clear statement that vaccine acceptance should be voluntary.

There may be justified reasons for high-risk individuals to take an experimental vaccine even if the vaccine is tainted with a product of abortion. However, there is no justification for healthy individuals who are free of these risk factors and have greater than 99 percent survival rate to this infection having to wrestle with a medical or a moral issue on whether to accept an experimental vaccine that poses significant risk to their health.

Second, there must be an absence of an ethical alternative treatment.  It has been documented that early ambulatory administration of a multi-drug regimen of hydroxychloroquine or ivermectin, in combination with zinc and azithromycin or doxycycline, reduces the risk of hospitalization, mortality and viral transmission in high-risk patients. However, the Vatican and USCCB have never advocated for hydroxychloroquine and ivermectin. Additionally, most physicians have not conducted sufficient due diligence of these medications, and only a minority of doctors currently prescribe them.

Third, individuals can exercise their moral conscience and refuse vaccination. However, this position is not acknowledged at Catholic institutions that otherwise espouse their Catholic identity. Sadly, it has been reported that some Catholic institutions will not support Catholics who seek a religious exemption from taking these morally tainted vaccines.

Fourth, Catholics are required to promote ethical alternative vaccines and urge the pharmaceutical industry to develop ethical vaccines. There is no evidence that the Catholic Church has shown the same zeal to promote alternative ethical medications and vaccines and ethical human cell lines in their effort to reduce vaccine hesitancy among Catholics.

Strategies for students, parents, and employees subjected to vaccine mandates

There is an unprecedented lack of public confidence in our public health institutions, even in physicians, and it will be difficult to reclaim that public trust.

Students attending Catholic schools, along with their parents and employees of Catholic hospitals, are subjected to unprecedented threats to their constitutional civil and religious rights as well as to their health. Many Catholic colleges are mandating students to accept these gene therapies before the fall semester begins. Catholic hospitals are requiring their employees to accept an unprecedented gene therapy or risk employment.

These institutions have adopted these draconian measures without thoughtful analysis of the science, and schools are placing their students at great harm from an experimental gene therapy that is medically futile in controlling this infection. Even more disgraceful is that these Catholic institutions that espouse their Catholic identity will not recognize religious exemption for an experimental vaccine that is morally tainted. Moreover, the Catholic institutions will not provide students or employees access to hydroxychloroquine or ivermectin if they become seriously ill from COVID.

It is regrettable that Catholics cannot expect leaders at the Vatican and the USCCB to support the rights of Catholics to exercise their moral conscience to reject morally tainted vaccines. Instead, Catholics around the world reach out to the John Paul II Medical Research Institute to not only develop a morally acceptable vaccine, but frequently to ask what strategies they should pursue to address vaccine mandates at colleges and hospitals.

This is a problem that I predicted and wrote about several years ago when highlighting how morally tainted cells would alter the viability of the Catholic healthcare system. Unfortunately, this pandemic has shown that the problem is even worse than I had predicted. I never imagined that Catholic hospitals would coerce Catholics to take a morally tainted medicine.

The following recommendations will regrettably require individuals to take confrontational positions because the situation has escalated to crisis levels that threaten religious and civil liberties at the expense of human health. I recommend the following strategies for college students and their parents and employees working at Catholic hospitals who refuse these experimental vaccines:

1. Contact your governor and ask them to sign an executive order to forbid vaccine mandates in their state.

2. Contact your state attorney general to investigate whether there are statutory laws that outlaw vaccine mandates.

3. Contact your local representative to pass laws against vaccine mandates in their state.

4. Parents and students should write a letter to the school president and board of trustees to rescind vaccine mandates.

5. Alumni should write to the school president and threaten to withhold future philanthropic financial support if the school requires vaccine mandates.

6. Catholics should write to their local bishop and insist that they adopt the 2005 Pontifical Council of Life position on morally tainted vaccines.  The letter should insist that the bishop write a letter to the leadership of a Catholic school or hospital in their diocese urging them to rescind vaccine mandates.

7. Catholics should remind their bishop that they may be placing their diocese at legal and financial risk for Catholic elementary and high schools which are under their jurisdiction if vaccine mandates lead to death or disabilities in children.

8. Students should have their school sign a document that holds the school liable if a student develops serious harm from the vaccine.  A template copy of this document is available online from a Solari Report.

9. Employees of Catholic hospitals should have their employer sign a document that will hold the hospital liable if that employee develops severe harm from the vaccine.  A template copy of this document is available online from a Solari Report.

10. If high-risk patients cannot receive hydroxychloroquine or ivermectin from their personal physician in the event they become quite ill from COVID, then I recommend that individuals reach out to organizationslikeAmerica’s Frontline DoctorsandTruth for Health Foundationthat work with experienced physicians treating COVID who will provide telemedicine services.

In conclusion, mandating these subunit vaccines represents a medically futile and likely an illegal public health effort to contain the spread of COVID-19.  It is immoral and perhaps illegal for Catholic schools and hospitals to require young and healthy individuals to take an experimental drug that offers no personal benefit but instead poses potential serious health risks.  Moreover, it is immoral for these Catholic institutions to threaten individuals’ education and employment unless they accept a medication derived from an abortion, a position that is contrary to the Pontifical Council of Life statement of 2005 and the more recent declaration by the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith.

This is the first of a three-part essay by Dr. Alan Moy, the founder and scientific director of the John Paul II Medical Research Institute. Part 2, “The efficacy is overstated, and the safety is understated” is here. Part 3 “Strategies for students, parents, and employees to combat mandates” is here.  

Part 1 – A Basic Understanding of the Vaccine Science

CORALVILLE, IA (LifeSiteNews) Since the outbreak of COVID-19, our country has faced unprecedented and unnecessary suffering because of historic misinformation, deceit, and censorship perpetrated on Americans by public health authorities, media, government, private and public institutions, as well as leaders in the Catholic Church.

Many countries like the United States have been subjected to unnecessary lockdowns, economic and medical calamities, and restrictions on civil and religious liberties. This loss of freedom is currently represented by a growing number of schools and hospitals pursing vaccine mandates with a medicine that not only has purported efficacy and safety concerns, but has been developed with morally tainted cell lines derived from past abortions of unborn babies.

What is most reprehensible is that these vaccine mandates are being imposed on employees working in Catholic hospital systems and students who are attending Catholic schools that espouse a Catholic identity. What makes the situation even more shameful is the level of silence from the Vatican and the USCCB to support Catholics who refuse this vaccine on religious grounds, even though the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith clearly states that the vaccine should be voluntary.

These vaccine mandates are driven out of fear, ignorance and deception. COVID-19 vaccine recommendations are purported to be based on guidelines from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), the National Institutes of Health (NIH), and the World Health Organization (WHO) to contain the spread of this infection. Yet COVID-19 vaccines approved by emergency use authorization (EUA) represent a medically futile and likely an illegal public health measure to control this infection. In a three-part essay, I will highlight the basis for this conclusion.

A virology primer for the layperson

COVID-19 or SARS-CoV-2 is a ribonucleic acid (RNA) respiratory virus which contains four structural viral proteins or antigens (see illustration): (1) E or envelope antigen; (2) N-protein or nucleocapsid antigen; (3) M-protein or membrane antigen; and (4) S-protein or spike protein.   Everyone by now has seen pictures of these spikes on the virus.

There are two traditional vaccine approaches to protect against infections: (1) an attenuated live vaccine in which the original live virus is weakened but mediates immune protection with a less virulent virus; and (2) a killed whole virus vaccine.  An attenuated live vaccine would be nasally administered like the transmission of the COVID-19 virus, while a killed whole virus vaccine is administered as an intramuscular injection.

Much like someone who has recovered from getting COVID-19, an attenuated live vaccine produces three important mechanisms of action: (1) respiratory mucosal immunity, which facilitates a reduction in viral transmission and respiratory injury; (2) systemic humoral immunity, which elicits an immediate but transient systemic antibody response; and (3) systemic T-cell immunity, which provides more long-term immunity that prevents re-infection.  For example, children who recovered from chicken pox prior to the availability of a vaccine acquired T-cell immunity. Their T-cell immunity prevented reinfection later on as adults when exposed to their offspring who contracted chickenpox.

Taken together, individuals who have recovered from COVID-19 likely not only possess all three forms of immunity, but they benefit from redundant immunity because of exposure to all four viral antigens.  In other words, natural immunity would provide the most effective means to prevent viral transmission and re-infection.  Next to natural immunity, an attenuated live vaccinewould provide an effective, single dose and rapid immune protection that includes respiratory mucosal immunity. However, a downside of an attenuated live vaccine is the risk that the weakened virus could revert to the original state.

Since the Wuhan strain emerged in late 2019, hundreds of new strains or variants have emerged around the world (e.g. UK, South Africa, Brazil, India, and Peru). Some of these variants have greater transmissibility than the original Wuhan strain but do not necessarily produce greater lethality. COVID-19 displays many variants because RNA viruses are very unstable and rapidly mutate. Many mutations are clinically irrelevant, while other mutations can pose unique biological features that make variants more resistant to anti-viral therapies.  Our organization compared the genetic sequence of these variants and observed that the major genetic differences can be attributed to genetic mutations in the spike protein. The spike protein is more prone to mutation because it is under pressure to adapt in response to its interaction with the angiotensin converting enzyme-2 (ACE-2) receptor where the infection initiates.  In contrast, there is relatively more genetic stability in the non-spike viral antigens. As a result, those that achieve natural immunity are more poised to resist re-infection from variants because of redundant respiratory mucosal, T-cell and humoral immunity to all COVID-19 viral antigens.

Operation Warp Speed vaccines lack natural immunity’s protection 

Despite what our public health authorities state, the efficacy of Operation Warp Speed vaccines is inferior to natural immunity. Operation Warp Speed supported eight vaccine candidates from pharmaceutical companies in a rush to deliver an experimental vaccine issued under the EUA. Among the eight government supported vaccines, all eight utilized a subunit vaccine approach  – a non-traditional vaccine approach for respiratory viral infections in which a fragment of the virus (in this case the spike protein) is administered to elicit a neutralizing antibody to the spike protein. Neutralizing antibodies to the spike protein prevent the virus from binding to the ACE-2 receptor and thus prevent the infection. — Article continues below Petition — PETITION: No to mandatory vaccination for the coronavirus 1055811 have signed the petition.Let’s get to 1100000!

Six of the vaccine candidates, including the Moderna, Pfizer, and Johnson and Johnson vaccines, rely on unprecedented gene therapies. Operation Warp Speed chose only subunit approaches because they were the fastest route to large scale manufacturing using off-the-shelf technologies, thereby enabling these vaccines to enter clinical trials quickly. Unfortunately, the Department of Health and Human Services did not support traditional attenuated live vaccine development because they believed that the development process would take too long (as per personal communication with HHS leadership). This decision proved short-sighted and remains a major reason why we still do not have to this day an adequate biodefense against novel coronaviruses (whether natural or man-made).

The public is largely unaware that this is not the first time subunit vaccine approaches were attempted to combat novel coronaviruses. These same vaccine approaches were unsuccessful in developing an approved vaccine after the outbreak of SARS-CoV-1 in 2002 and MERS in 2012.

Subunit vaccines typically elicit weak immune responses and require booster injections. Subunit vaccines are injected into muscle tissue, which bypass the ability to elicit a respiratory mucosal immunity. Moreover, subunit vaccines that only express the spike protein are vulnerable for two reasons. First, they do not provide redundant immune protection because they stimulate the immune system with only one viral antigen. Second, vaccine effectiveness relies on the stability of the spike protein to avoid significant mutations over time. However, RNA viruses are very unstable, and it is impractical and medically futile to protect a global population with a subunit vaccine when the spike protein is dynamically changing.

Such is the case now as we are witnessing how current vaccines based on the Wuhan spike protein sequence are less effective against the South African and Indian (delta) variant because the spike protein has significantly mutated. In fact, subunit vaccines could theoretically increase the risk of accelerating variant formation by increasing the biological pressure on the virus to create new variants that will be resistant to the vaccine.  As of early May, there are nearly 10,000 cases of reported breakthrough cases in vaccinated individuals, and the likelihood exists that there will be new breakthrough cases in the months ahead as new variants emerge. Additionally, the CDC is not even keeping track of all breakthrough cases.  In Israel, which has the highest vaccination rate using the Pfizer mRNA vaccine, most new cases are caused by the delta variant.

This is the second part of a three-part essay by Dr. Alan Moy, the founder and scientific director of the John Paul II Medical Research Institute. We encourage you to read Part 1, “A Basic Understanding of the Vaccine Science,” which can be found here. Part 3, “Strategies for students, parents, and employees to combat mandates,” is here .  

Part 2: The efficacy is overstated, and the safety is understated.https://static.lifeserver.net/709b1e30a292a046243572436ad0600c/index.html?clickTag=https%3A%2F%2Fservedby.lifeserver.net%2Fcl.php%3Fbannerid%3D80884%26zoneid%3D8553%26sig%3D7a963ec7211d5cb7d678ac605ed0f50ff09fadf55108019445ee8f19cc286ebc%26oadest%3Dhttps%253A%252F%252Fbit.ly%252F3hm5Nxs

False sense of immune protection from the vaccines

Moderna reported that their mRNA vaccine elicited transient neutralizing antibodies. However, these antibodies declined by 50% after 3 months for patients between the ages of 55-70 and declined by 75 percent for those over the age of 70. Moreover, T-cell immunity was only documented in healthy, non-elderly individuals. It has been well documented that long-term smoking, obesity, diabetes, and advanced age impairs T-cell immunity or fails to activate T-cell immunity in response to vaccines. Thus, individuals who possess any of these risk factors may elicit a modest humoral immune response and/or fail to achieve T-cell immunity – providing a false sense of security whereby such individuals may be no more protected than an unvaccinated individual. Moreover, these vaccines do not provide respiratory mucosal immunity which can still permit nasal transmission.

The primary endpoint of COVID-19 vaccine clinical trials was a reduction in symptoms. The clinical trials did not evaluate viral transmission. In fact, reports showed that viral particles were still present in respiratory secretions based on animal studies performed using mRNA vaccines and adenoviral vaccines. Therefore, the personal decision to take a COVID injection provides neither absolute assurance to the public that they are protected, nor will it prevent the transmission of the virus.

It is difficult to achieve herd immunity with subunit vaccines

Herd immunity refers to a level where a critical fraction of the public has achieved immunity against a viral infection to the extent that viral transmission ceases.  At herd immunity, there are few remaining individuals that are vulnerable to infection.  Public health institutions like NIH, CDC and WHO purport that herd immunity can only be achieved when at least 70 percent of the population has been vaccinated. However, this public health opinion is fallacious for several reasons.

First, our government is discounting the fraction of the population that achieved natural immunity, which is currently hypothesized to be at approximately 30 percent. Second, herd immunity models assume that the vaccine is very effective. This is difficult to achieve with a subunit vaccine that elicits a weak immune response that requires boosters. There is little evidence that these vaccines stop transmission because of lack of respiratory mucosal immunity. Third, achieving herd immunity assumes that the virus is static and is not changing.  However, as previously discussed, COVID-19 is a RNA virus that is dynamically changing and producing variants that genetically differ within the spike protein.

The incidence of new cases was already on the decline before the vaccine rolled out according to CDC data. Additionally, the rate of decline of new cases was unaffected by the roll out of the vaccine. This suggests that there was sufficient background natural immunity to reduce the incidence of new cases or the virulence of the infection was decreasing. Since individuals that acquire natural immunity have redundant respiratory mucosal, humoral, and T-cell immunity, there is a lower chance for the emergent of variants that will overwhelm healthcare resources.

Taken together, rather than mandating vaccination for college students and school children, natural immunity would be a more effective and safer route for this age group to contribute to herd immunity. This would permit them to conduct their normal lives and acquire natural immunity, especially since this population has a high recovery rate and milder presentation of the illness. Their natural immunity would further reduce the emergence of variants.

The vaccine offers no benefit, poses the greatest health risk to the young and healthy

It is the standard of care to evaluate the risks versus benefits of any medical treatment. For example, healthcare professionals encourage but do not mandate pneumonia vaccinations for the elderly who are at increased risk from developing pneumonia. We typically do not vaccinate healthy 18 through 30-year-olds with the pneumonia vaccine even though the vaccination has proven safe. Yet there has been an absurd and obsessive effort to vaccinate children and college studentswhere the risk of viral transmission in the former is extremely low and the risk of death from COVID-19 is essentially zero in these age groups. Moreover, many college students have recovered from COVID-19 and have developed natural immunity. As reported by a study from the Cleveland Clinic, the vaccine offered no additional benefit to those individuals who already recovered from COVID-19. Consequently, these experimental vaccines offer no benefit to children; college students; and young and healthy individuals working in hospitals. In contrast, gene therapies pose significant health risks.

A gene therapy operates by delivering a gene into a cell and/or tissue of interest and where the gene is converted into a protein, which in turn, mediates some specific biological activity. Gene therapy has historically been reserved for treating rare genetic diseases and refractory cancers. Prior to COVID, there has been no approved use of gene therapy to vaccinate against an infection. In the case of these gene therapies, the spike protein gene is delivered to specific immunological cells, where the protein is then expressed on the cell surface. These immune cells then present the spike protein to other immunological cells, which elicit systemic humoral and T-cell immunity. Unfortunately, the gene therapy also expresses the spike protein on unintended targeted cells (e.g. brain, heart, reproductive organs and vascular cells). — Article continues below Petition — PETITION: No to mandatory vaccination for the coronavirus 1055811 have signed the petition.Let’s get to 1100000!

Spike proteins produce multiple mechanisms of concern that reduce safety, but there are two mechanisms of particular importance: (1) spike protein toxicity and (2) autoimmune responses.

First, the spike protein freely circulates in the bloodstream and activates any cell that expresses the ACE-2 receptor. Platelets and endothelial cells (cells that line the wall of blood cells) express ACE-2 receptors. Circulating spike proteins activate these vascular cells. Activated platelets tend to aggregate and adhere to activated endothelial cells which are sticky. These actions promote blood clot formation. Additionally, activated endothelial cells become leakier, which could lead to the extravasation of fluid and blood into tissues.

Second, spike proteins are expressed in undesired tissues. The patient’s immune system would not be able to differentiate between a virus expressing spike protein and an individual’s own tissue that expresses the same spike protein. Under this condition, an individual who has acquired natural immunity could provoke an acute or chronic autoimmune response. Additionally, individuals who acquired natural immunity could be more susceptible to bleeding and thrombosis because their vascular cells are re-challenged with circulating spike protein from the vaccine.

Thus, the vaccine offers a very unfavorable risk versus benefit scenario for children and college students, particularly if they had previously recovered from COVID. In contrast, high risk Catholics may have a more justified risk versus benefit scenario, provided that those individuals are fully informed of the moral issues and medical risks and benefits of these experimental vaccines.

According to the CDC’s Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS), which is a passive reporting system said to report only a tiny percentage of the true incidence of adverse events, there have been over 15,472 deaths and 1.5 million injuries from the injections in Europe. In the United States, the injections have led to more than 6,113 deaths, 5,172 permanent disabilities, 6,435 life-threatening events and 51,558 ER visits. Individuals are required by law to receive informed consent before they receive an experimental vaccine under the National Research Act of 1974. While the government is pushing mass vaccination, it is interesting that approximately half of the employees at NIH and the CDC have not been vaccinated.

“Incredible dads,” however, do not willfully deprive their children of a mother.

What all the Buttigieg cheerleaders have in common is that they focus solely on the emotional needs of the two men about to become parents while ignoring the plight of the child or children about to become part of their household.

No matter how the Buttigiegs “grow their family,” a child loses

While it’s unclear whether the homosexual couple are obtaining a child through adoption or via surrogacy, both paths are highly problematic for the child involved.

Child advocate Katy Faust, founder of the children’s rights organization, Them Before Us and author of a book by the same name, summed up on Twitter the losing proposition for the future Buttigieg child — one  which will hold no matter how the child finds its way into the Buttigieg household: https://platform.twitter.com/embed/Tweet.html?dnt=false&embedId=twitter-widget-4&features=eyJ0ZndfZXhwZXJpbWVudHNfY29va2llX2V4cGlyYXRpb24iOnsiYnVja2V0IjoxMjA5NjAwLCJ2ZXJzaW9uIjpudWxsfSwidGZ3X2hvcml6b25fdHdlZXRfZW1iZWRfOTU1NSI6eyJidWNrZXQiOiJodGUiLCJ2ZXJzaW9uIjpudWxsfSwidGZ3X3NwYWNlX2NhcmQiOnsiYnVja2V0Ijoib2ZmIiwidmVyc2lvbiI6bnVsbH19&frame=false&hideCard=false&hideThread=false&id=1427689796307079179&lang=en&origin=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.lifesitenews.com%2Fblogs%2Fhomosexual-white-house-cabinet-secretary-pete-buttigieg-plans-to-deny-child-its%25e2%2580%25afmother-homosexual-white-house-cabinet-secretary-buttigieg-plans-to-deny-child-its%25e2%2580%25afmother%2F&sessionId=b6d87eca92a126e212b2e664a90721c4361dab6a&siteScreenName=LifeSite&theme=light&widgetsVersion=1890d59c%3A1627936082797&width=550px

“That poor child,” tweeted radio show host Dr. Christine Bacon.  “Starting life off already at a great disadvantage and exposure to disordered thinking that she will one day need to reconcile.”

“May God help us all,” she added.

During a CNN town hall meeting (video here), Buttigieg revealed that when matters of conscience for Christians and best practices for serving orphaned children are pitted against the demands of homosexuals and transgenders to acquire children to alleviate their loneliness, LGBT demands should trump the rights of all others.

In Pete Buttigieg’s strange worldview, an orphaned child’s right to both a mom and dad “harms” gays, and the deep-seated hunger that every child has for both parents of both sexes discriminates against gays.

In essence, Buttigieg sees all kids as born prejudiced. He deems active homosexuals as bigger ‘victims’ than orphaned children.

‘No one thinks of the kids anymore’

When Buttigieg first unveiled his intention of obtaining a child with his ‘husband’ in 2019, Katy Faust tweeted about the media’s unquestioning welcome of Buttigieg’s announcement.  She conveyed the message of a man who had been raised by gays: “I’m a man who had to grow up with a gay dad & his lover. I hated it. I really did. No one thinks of the kids anymore. No one in media WISHES TO ASK about them, anymore, at all. Thus, NO questions to “Mayor Pete” re whether children get a father AND mother. ”

Children need and deserve to be raised by their two biological parents whenever possible.  They don’t need two parents of the same gender, no matter how loving, how famous, or how wealthy those parents are.

LifeSiteNews has produced an extensive COVID-19 vaccines resources page. View it here.

(Revolver News) – The forced vaccination of all military personnel with the present COVID-19 vaccines may compromise U.S. national security due to the unknown extent of serious vaccine complications. Further study is needed before committing the Total Force to one irreversible experimental group. Recent reports leave more concern for the COVID-19 vaccinations than the virus itself for the (at present) exceptionally healthy military population, which is not appreciably impacted by the virus without vaccination.https://static.lifeserver.net/709b1e30a292a046243572436ad0600c/index.html?clickTag=https%3A%2F%2Fservedby.lifeserver.net%2Fcl.php%3Fbannerid%3D80884%26zoneid%3D8553%26sig%3D7a963ec7211d5cb7d678ac605ed0f50ff09fadf55108019445ee8f19cc286ebc%26oadest%3Dhttps%253A%252F%252Fbit.ly%252F3hm5Nxs

First, SARS-CoV-2 is unlike any other virus. We have yet to completely understand the virology and it is rapidly mutating. Second, the COVID-19 vaccines are all experimental. The world is simultaneously learning about this new technology amongst the largest vaccine rollout in human history. The data on both the virus and vaccines are new and not yet scientifically reliable. Basic assumptions are changing with unprecedented levels of breakthrough cases in the vaccinated population. The U.S. military service member is extremely healthy compared to the general population and is not succumbing to the virus at any significant level, even without the vaccination. According to the CDC, “COVID overall has a 99.74% survival rate. Among young people, that number is even higher. For people aged 18 to 29, the survival rate is 99.97%.” As of August 12, 2021, only 29 (or 0.001%) of the 2.2 mil military population had expired from COVID-19.

To date, the vaccine is more seriously injuring this unique population than the virus itself. A Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA) study finds 23 U.S. service members experienced post-vaccination moderate to severe myocarditis who were otherwise healthy and non-symptomatic. There have been many other COVID-19 vaccine harm or death outcomes documented in the U.S. Government’s Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS). In fact, COVID-19 vaccine adverse events comprise a full one-third (over 500,000) of the three-decade total for all VAERS reports.

Plus, the VAERS system is underreporting COVID-19 vaccine deaths by a factor of five, according to a whistleblower who is described in their court filing as a “[…] subject matter expertise in the healthcare data analytics field, and has access to Medicare and Medicaid data maintain by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS).” They attested that the 9,048 reported COVID-19 vaccine-related deaths in VAERS is more like 45,000, after reconciling the various databases.

The U.K. government agency Public Health England recently published a report showing that, “people who received the COVID-19 shot are more than three times as likely to die than those who have not received the vaccine.”

Early signs in Israel indicate the same. Officials there recently reported that at least 85% of all severe and new COVID-19 hospitalizations are prior vaccinated individuals. The inventor of m-RNA technology, Dr. Robert Malone, recently disclosed that “[…] new data indicates that people who have taken the Pfizer and Moderna vaccines are at greater risk of getting Covid than someone who is not vaccinated.” The Johnson & Johnson and AstraZeneca vaccines also demonstrate significant problems as compared to the negligible military COVID-19 mortality rates.

In the European Union (EU), more than 22,000 vaccination-associated deaths are now documented in the EU drug adverse events database, which caused Doctors for COVID Ethics (an international doctors group from over 30 countries) to conclude on July 9, 2021 “[…] the benefits of vaccination are highly doubtful. In contrast, the harm the vaccines do is very well substantiated […]” — Article continues below Petition — PETITION: No to mandatory vaccination for the coronavirus 1055811 have signed the petition.Let’s get to 1100000!

Vaccine-enhanced herd immunity is also in question. On August 3, Iceland’s Chief Epidemiologist announced that their 95% nation-wide full vaccination rate, “[…] has not led to the herd immunity that experts hoped for. In the past two to three weeks, the Delta variant has outstripped all others in Iceland and it has become clear that vaccinated people can easily contract it as well as spread it to others.”

There is precedence for vaccine failure in respiratory viruses as noted in the journal Nature Microbiology last September, “Data from the study of SARS-CoV and other respiratory viruses suggest that anti-SARS-CoV-2 antibodies could exacerbate COVID-19 through antibody-dependent enhancement (ADE), resulting in failed vaccine trials.” Evidence suggests ADE could cause viral interference and along with other (influenza) vaccines alter our immune systems non-specifically to increase susceptibility to other infections.

The mRNA vaccines may redirect our cells away from suppressing latent immunity issues from previous infections (e.g., chicken pox). Consider along with what Dr. Malone describes as an “entire population [that] has been trained via a universal vaccination strategy to have the same basic immune response, then once a viral escape mutant is selected, it will rapidly spread through the entire population – whether vaccinated or not.” It could mean massive problems ahead for the global COVID-19 vaccinated population as they encounter variations and even simple viruses like the flu, in combination.

Natural immunity already possessed by the military population recovered from COVID-19 is effective against all known variants and also likely durable over time, according to Dr. Peter A. McCullough, who is regarded as one of the most credentialed experts on COVID-19 in the U.S.

This past January, the journal Nature published that greater than 95% of COVID-19 recovered people have “durable memories of the virus.” There is precedence here, as well, with SARS-CoV-1 demonstrating 17 years of natural immunity. A Cleveland Clinic study concluded, “Individuals who have had SARS-CoV-2 infection are unlikely to benefit from COVID-19 vaccination […]”

Another recent Israeli study questions “the need to vaccinate previously-infected individuals,” after comparing re-infection rates for the vaccinated and recovered segments of the country’s national health database.” Dr. McCullough strongly asserts that the current vaccination programs have become dangerous and should be shut down immediately – that mass vaccination programs in the middle of a pandemic actually causes the variations, making the entire vaccinated population vulnerable to those same variants.

Currently, about 50% of all active and reserve service members have yet to receive a COVID-19 shot of any type. Based on recent reporting data supported by published research findings, this paper argues that instead of lumping two very large unknowns (COVID-19 virology & vaccine efficacy) into one experimental group — possibly threating U.S. military personnel combat readiness — the DOD should maintain the “unvaccinated-half” as a force protection Control Group, thus guarantying a viable fighting force. Similar safeguards should also be considered for the civilian DOD population to support the Warfighter, regardless of the long-term vaccine verdict.

Given the COVID-19 mortality in the military, the U.S. can presently maintain the nation’s defensive manning levels, in all critical fields. Pressing forward against these extremely large unknowns by mandating COVID-19 vaccines could potentially threaten basic military deployment assumptions, to say nothing of the long-term destruction to morale and recruiting.

If it is true that the military is, in fact, essential to national survival thereby justifying massive budgets and sweeping measures to protect the Force, then deciding to gamble the entirety of those vital forces on what little is certain, is reckless at best. To do so given such low demonstrated serious outcomes in the unvaccinated Force could prove fratricidal.

With a better than 99.74% COVID-19 recovery rate in the military population, the singular act of stopping the present vaccination drive, thus preserving a force protection Contol Group, could prove existentially critical to the country. Immediately, cease and desist all coerced COVID-19 vaccination initiatives for service members and civilians (except for any remaining co-morbidity groups). Moreover, the force protection Control Group should commence harmless alternative and preventative protocols like I-MASK+ currently used in nations around the world with great efficacy. According to the American Journal of Therapeutics in their May-June 2021 issue: “Multiple, large ‘natural experiments’ occurred in regions that initiated ‘Ivermectin distribution’ campaigns followed by tight, reproducible, temporally associated decreases in case counts and case fatality rates compared with nearby regions without such campaigns.”

The bottom line is, the known science does not justify committing the entire U.S. troop strength to one singular experimental group. Given the many unknowns and what we have come to learn most recently, mandatory COVID-19 vaccination may not only be rash, but perhaps become life-threatening to the nation vis-à-vis those dedicated to her defense, against very well-known strategic competitors.

Simply put, COVID-19 forced-inoculation could prove to be a grave national security threat at a time when the nation can least afford it. We must immediately pause and reevaluate the U.S. defensive strategic assessment of COVID-19 vaccinations for the entire Department. There is absolutely no imperative of ‘benefits outweighing the risks’ to continue with mandating the COVID-19 vaccines to the military population who do not self-elect. Doing so could potentially trigger manning shortfalls brought on by resignations and lost enlistments from this all-volunteer armed force. At this time, there is more than enough justification for a COVID-19 vaccination safety standdown to reconsider how the decision to mass vaccinate will critically impact overall mission effectiveness.

OTTAWA, ON (LifeSiteNews) – The leader of the Conservative Party of Canada (CPC) is on board with mandating domestic travelers by air, rail, or sea to get COVID-19 injections.

But Erin O’Toole, Canada’s 48-year-old Leader of the Opposition, has also said that he will allow the “unvaccinated” to submit to rapid tests.

“Canadians want a reasonable and balanced approach that protects their right to make personal health decisions and the need to keep everyone safe,” reads a statement from O’Toole sent to the media on Sunday.

O’Toole’s statement appeared the same day Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau called a federal election. It will take place on September 20, 2021.

The statement said all federal workers would be mandated to have COVID-19 injections or “pass daily rapid tests.”

“A Conservative government will require unvaccinated Canadian passengers to present a negative test or pass a rapid test before getting on a bus, train, plane or ship,” it reads.

O’Toole’s remarks followed Friday’s news that the Canadian federal government will be mandating COVID-19 jabs as a requirement to travel domestically by air, train, or boat. The new requirement will take effect in October.

Canada’s Transport Minister Omar Alghabra stated that the government of Canada will require employees in the federally regulated “air, rail and marine transportation sectors to be vaccinated.”

“In addition, the vaccination requirement will also extend to certain travelers,” Alghabra continued.

“This includes all commercial air travelers, passengers on interprovincial trains, and passengers on large marine vessels with overnight accommodations such as cruise ships.”

Alghabra said in addition to mandating COVID-19 jabs for domestic travel for Canadians, all federal workers will be required to be jabbed by October as well.

Regarding Trudeau’s COVID-19 vaccination plan, there was no mention on Friday if those who are not jabbed will be allowed to travel with or work in a federal organization if they subject themselves to COVID-19 tests.

Alghabra did say on Friday that there will be “accommodation or alternative measures such as testing and screening” for the “few” who “are unable to be vaccinated,” which “may be determined in each situation to protect broader public health by reducing the risk of COVID-19.”

Last Wednesday, Canada’s Immigration Minister Marco Mendicino said that a vaccine passport will be “a key step forward in ensuring Canadians will have the documents they need once it is safe to travel again.”

One public service union, the Public Service Alliance of Canada (PSAC), said in a statement Tuesday that “using discipline and termination to enforce” COVID-19 injection mandates is “unacceptable.”

“Where required, other measures should be explored, including regular screening and rapid testing,” PSAC said. — Article continues below Petition — PETITION: Say ‘No’ to COVID ‘Vaccine Passports’! 209846 have signed the petition.Let’s get to 225000!

Trudeau and O’Toole’s vaccine passport plans are one and the same

On Monday an online letter (now deleted) from Canada’s Chief Human Resources Officer Christine Donoghue to civil service managers and employees made headlines. Donoghue’s letter states that the federal government’s new COVID-19 vaccine policy would allow rapid or daily tests, just like O’Toole’s plan.

“We recognize that some people are unable to be vaccinated. In these cases, we will discuss accommodations that could be put in place,” the letter read.

“For those who refuse vaccination, we will need to consider alternative measures, such as testing and screening.”

Sun Columnist Brian Lilley posted an image of the now-deleted letter on Twitter and, in a column, blasted Trudeau for “playing politics with vaccinations, something we had mostly avoided in this country.”

“He’s lying about his government’s position,” wrote Lilley.

After news of the letter broke, O’Toole’s CPC came out with a statement blaming Trudeau for “misleading Canadians” on COVID-19 jabs but also admitting that their plan is the same as that of the Prime Minister’s Liberal Party.

“Justin Trudeau’s plan for federal employees is the same as Erin O’Toole’s. If Justin Trudeau is willing to mislead Canadians about his vaccine policy, then he’ll mislead them about anything,” reads a CPC statement attributed to Michael Barrett, Conservative Candidate for Leeds-Grenville-Thousand Islands and Rideau Lakes.

“Justin Trudeau is saying one thing in public, but his own government is saying something very different.”

One of Canada’s political parties isn’t onboard with the vaccine-or-test mandates. The leader of the People’s Party of Canada (PPC), Maxime Bernier, has publicly stated he will not get COVID-19 jabs. Bernier is the only federal party leader who has come out strongly against mandatory COVID-19 jabs as well as vaccine passports.

Unvaccinated will be” segregated and denied a normal existence” 

Lisa Bildy, the interim President for the Justice Centre for Constitutional Freedoms (JCCF), recently told LifeSiteNews that mandating COVID-19 jabs for domestic travel will create a segregation of the vaccinated and the unvaccinated.

“The full implications of widespread vaccine mandates are not yet known, but this much is certain: it will divide society,” Bildy said.

“Those persons who cannot or choose not to be vaccinated for COVID-19, as is their right, will be segregated and denied a normal existence,” she continued.

“They will be vilified in the media and by government, ostracized by society, and ultimately persecuted. Those who defend them will be censored, silenced, and punished.”

Bildy added that the interprovincial travel ban for the non-vaccinated reveals what a “totalitarian society looks like.”

Currently, both Manitoba and Quebec have forms of vaccine proof one can attain in digital form.

The government of Quebec recently said that it will go ahead with enforcing vaccine passports come the fall.

Recently, two provincial premiers have come out against COVID-19 vaccine passports, Alberta’s Jason Kenney and Ontario’s Doug Ford.

As for Bernier, he took part in a large protest against the provinces’ new vaccine passport system in Montreal over the weekend.

DALLAS, Texas (LifeSiteNews) – The forced mass vaccination of Americans will be regarded as one of the most deadly and costly medical mistakes in history, renowned pioneer in the early treatment of COVID-19, Texas cardiologist and internist Dr. Peter McCullough, has said.

Citing recent data from U.S. Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS) and from Israel and Britain, where COVID cases are multiplying among the vaccinated, McCullough, who is editor-in-chief of two medical journals and author of over 600 peer-reviewed studies, including 46 dedicated to COVID-19, said he is “deeply worried” about the future of America.  

“Americans are going to bear the brunt of what invariably is going to be a failed mass vaccination program that will go down as one of the most deadly, one of the most injurious and costly in human history,” McCullough said in a recent podcast

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) announced in April that it has stopped tracking COVID cases among the vaccinated that do not result in hospitalizations or deaths. The agency is now assuming that new cases are among the unvaccinated unless otherwise advised, which skews numbers to paint the unvaccinated as spreaders of disease.

“This intentional misinformation and propaganda scheme has been used to drive an incredible fury of vaccine mandates” for government agencies, veterans administrations, and hundreds of schools and colleges, even though here have been no outbreaks in these places, McCullough said. — Article continues below Petition — PETITION: Fire Fauci and investigate him now! 61654 have signed the petition.Let’s get to 70000!

Israel was the first country to mass vaccinate its population under an agreement with Pfizer to exchange vaccine supply for public health data in an experiment on the people “to evaluate whether herd immunity protection is observed during the Product vaccination program rollout.” 

Eighty percent of adults are fully vaccinated there, yet COVID cases and serious hospitalizations have risen 20-fold since early July. The media has highlighted that most serious new cases have been among the unvaccinated, while neglecting to report that the majority (more than 80 percent) of new cases reported by the Israeli Health Ministry are among vaccinated individuals.   

In response, Israel introduced a third “booster shot” of Pfizer’s vaccine which has been administered to more than one million people as of August 16.

In the United Kingdom, more than three-quarters of the adult population (76 percent) have received two doses of vaccine and almost 90 percent of adults have received at least one dose. Yet, the number of COVID patients hospitalized has soared sevenfold since early June this year.  

The most recent U.K. report on “variants of concern” revealed that 54 percent of COVID deaths are among the fully vaccinated. A further 12 percent of deaths are among the partially vaccinated who have received one dose.  

That data, McCullough said, “is basically showing that the vaccines are failing.” Vaccinated individuals can acquire and transmit the pandemic coronavirus and become and die of COVID-19. “Completely vaccinated individuals are passing it to one another,” McCullough said.

Nonetheless, citing the new, circulating Delta variant, the Biden administration is expected to follow Israel’s example and introduce a third booster shot for all nursing home residents and healthcare workers for September.   

The vaccines were never tested for the Delta variant, and their protection has lasted only months. “It’s clear we can’t vaccinate our way out of this,” McCullough said.

COVID-19, no matter what the variant, is easily treatable at home with simple, available drugs, according to McCullough, who has stated that “about 88 percent of hospitalizations and deaths can be avoided” with early treatment.

Since he came out publicly advising early treatment of COVID patients where the government protocol is to send them home and wait for them to get sick, McCullough has found himself targeted by public health institutions and academia. 

A graduate of Baylor University who worked as a Vice Chair of Internal Medicine at Baylor University Medical Center from January 2014 until February 2021, he recently addressed the Texas Senate Health and Human Service Committee about early COVID-19 treatment protocols.

His contract was then cancelled, and he was recently sued by the Texas-based health system Baylor Scott & White after his affiliation with the system was noted during a public interview. 

The lawsuit coincides with a decision by BSWH to mandate vaccination for its 40,000 employees. 

“I’m deeply worried concerned regarding the future of America and also deeply afraid of loss of freedom of speech and of scientific discourse,” McCullough said. 

“There are deep threats out there to doctors who are really doing their best—to help patients and save lives,” he said 

He cited a July 29 statement from the Federation of State Medical Boards which threatens doctors who spread medical “misinformation” about vaccines with losing their medical license. The federation defines scientific information as “consensus-driven for the betterment of public health.” 

McCullough openly criticized the “totalitarian” nature of vaccine mandates and pointed to government vaccine adverse event data noting that “already 11,221 declared disabled due to the vaccine.” That number has since grown to 16,044.

“These safety events are way out of line. This vaccine is nowhere close to be safe. Every person who takes the needle is thinking about the scoreboard.”

Instead, he said, “Americans are flying blind. They don’t know which vaccine is the safest.”

“Americans are given no information on this. It is basically impossible for them to navigate this vaccine decision. They say simply: ‘Take the vaccine, and it doesn’t matter which one.’”

“None of this makes sense in terms of the program being about COVID-19; it almost seems like it’s about submissiveness, or coercion, or control. The population is basically being forced into mass vaccination.”
