  2. Moderna CEO Stéphane Bancel joined Sky News Australia for an interview about the latest technology and research within the company.

    In the short clip posted below, the interviewer noted that Moderna could have collapsed without the emergence of COVID-19.

    “Moderna, before COVID, could very well have collapsed and disappeared. All that technology could have disappeared simply because there might not have been the venture capital out there that was prepared to keep backing you,” the interviewer stated.

    “We raised three billion USD to get the technology to this point when the pandemic happened,” Bancel responded.

    How convenient?

    • the epoch times – EXCLUSIVE: CDC Won’t Release Review of Post-Vaccination Heart Inflammation

      The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) will not release its review of post-COVID-19-vaccination heart inflammation.

      The CDC has been performing abstractions on reports of post-vaccination myocarditis, a form of heart inflammation, submitted to the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System.

      But the agency is saying that federal law prevents it from releasing the results.

      The abstractions “are considered medical records which are withheld in full from disclosure,” the CDC told The Epoch Times in a recent letter, responding to a Freedom of Information Act request.

      One of the exemptions in the act says that agencies can withhold materials that are “specifically exempted from disclosure by statute, if that statute (i) requires that the matters be withheld from the public in such a manner as to leave no discretion on the issue; or (ii) establishes particular criteria for withholding or refers to particular types of matters to be withheld; and (B) if enacted after the date of enactment of the OPEN FOIA Act of 2009, specifically cites to this paragraph.”

      The CDC pointed to the Public Health Service Act, which was enacted in 1944, and says that vaccine injury reports and other information that may identify a person shall not be made available to any person except the person who received the vaccine or a legal representative for that person.

      The information sought is available through the CDC website without details that would identify patients, the agency also said.

      The CDC said that it does not have a formal definition of “abstraction” but that it means the process of reviewing medical records, including autopsy reports and death certificates, and recording data in a database. “Please note that this definition means that any abstracted data, because they originate from medical records, is also considered medical records,” a CDC records officer told The Epoch Times in an email.

      ‘Coverup’

      Refusing to release the data raises concerns about transparency, according to Barbara Loe Fisher, co-founder and president of the National Vaccine Information Center.

      “The stubborn refusal of officials heading up federal health agencies responsible for protecting the public health to come clean with Americans about what they know about COVID vaccine risks is stunning,” Fisher told The Epoch Times in an email.

      Fisher noted that the CDC has funded electronic medical record systems that collect personal health information and that the agency shares the data with a number of third parties, such as contractors and researchers.

      “Yet, CDC officials are claiming they cannot release de-identified abstraction information curated from the medical records of individuals, who have suffered myocarditis or died after COVID shots? This looks and feels like a coverup of the true risks of COVID vaccines,” Fisher said.

      Fisher called for a congressional probe into what she described as “the disturbing lack of transparency on the part of federal agency officials, who granted COVID vaccine manufacturers an Emergency Use Authorization (EUA) to widely distribute the vaccines in December 2020 and have recommended and aggressively promoted the vaccines for mandated use ever since.”

      Initial Response

      In response to a separate Freedom of Information Act request, the CDC initially said that it did not perform any abstractions or produce any reports on post-vaccination myocarditis. That request was for reports between April 2, 2021, and Oct. 2, 2021.

      The agency also falsely said that a link between myocarditis and the messenger RNA COVID-19 vaccines was not known during that time.

      A possible link between those vaccines, made by Pfizer and Moderna, became known in early 2021. Many experts now acknowledge the link is likely or definitely causal.

      The CDC later issued a correction on the false claim, as well as the claim that the agency started performing a type of data mining on VAERS data as early as February 2021.

      The CDC said in its correction that myocarditis abstractions began being performed in May 2021.

      Notified that its response was false and asked to do a fresh search, the records office did not respond.

      Appeals have been lodged in that case and after the more recent response withholding the records.

      Dr. Rochelle Walensky, the CDC’s director, said in a press conference in April 2021 that the agency had not detected a link between the vaccines and myocarditis. The basis for that statement remains unclear.

      Part of Pattern

      The refusal to provide the myocarditis abstractions is part of a pattern with the CDC and its partner, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA).

      The CDC still hasn’t released the results of the data mining, to The Epoch Times, Sen. Ron Johnson (R-Wis.), or a nonprofit called Children’s Health Defense. The agency also declined to provide results from a different monitoring system, V-safe, to a nonprofit called Informed Consent Action Network, which then sued the agency and just recently received the first tranche of data.

      The FDA, meanwhile, has refused to release the results of a different type of analysis on the VAERS data, claiming it cannot separate the results from protected internal communications. The agency is also withholding autopsies conducted on people who died after getting COVID-19 vaccines, pointing to exceptions laid out in the Freedom of Information Act.

      Along with Johnson, several other lawmakers are pressing at least one of the agencies to release the data, asserting that not doing so is illegal.

      During the COVID-19 EU hearing, Pfizer’s president of international developed markets, Janine Small, admitted that the vaccine had never been tested on its ability to prevent transmission, contrary to what was previously advertised.

      Robert “Rob” Roos, a politician from the Netherlands who is also a member of the European Parliament, exposed the lie that people from all over the world had been led to believe.

      “If you don’t get vaccinated, you’re antisocial. This is what the Dutch prime minister and health minister told us. You don’t get vaccinated just for yourself, but also for others. You do it for all of society, that’s what they said. Today, this turned out to be complete nonsense. ” Roos said in his viral bombshell video posted on Twitter.

      “In a COVID hearing in the European Parliament, one of the Pfizer directors just admitted to me at the time of introduction, the vaccine had never been tested on stopping the transmission of the virus,” Roos said.

    Russia’s retributory air strikes are heavily focused on Ukraine’s energy grid.

    This video shows a thermal power plant being destroyed in Kiev.

    The damage from the attacks was so severe that Ukraine is ending all electrical exports to Europe, saying its own grid is now unstable.

    • – Putin is keeping them busy repairing their electric grid. For now, they are on rolling blackouts. There were more Russian missile and drone strikes that targeted Ukraine’s electric grid. –

      “New missile strikes targeting Ukrainian military command and control sites and the country’s energy infrastructure were conducted on Tuesday, the Russian Defense Ministry reported during a daily briefing.

      The attacks hit all intended targets and “achieved their goals,” the military claimed.

      Earlier in the day, Ukrainian officials and media reported more Russian long-range attacks in a rerun of Monday’s strikes.

      Andrey Sadovoy, the mayor of the city of Lvov in western Ukraine, said his city faced another blackout due to the damage inflicted by Russia.

      “A missile strike at a critical infrastructure object” had left some 30% of Lvov without power, the official reported on social media. He added that there were issues with the water supply in the city and urged residents to stockpile for possible cuts.

      In Vinnitsa Region in central Ukraine, the head of the administration, Sergey Borzov, reported drone attacks on a local power station, but later edited his post to a more neutral report of “explosions” in his region. The operator of the Ladyzhin coal-fired power plant confirmed damage to its equipment in a drone raid on Tuesday morning.”

      It comes at a crucial moment, a day after Russian missiles bombarded Ukraine

      President Joe Biden added his voice to an international chorus of condemnation

      • This war is fascinating in that we are shown and told only what the Globalist media want us to know.

        Here is a good take on the G7 meeting.

        Hypothesis: By taking in G7 (NATO) peacekeepers at Ukraine’s northern border, the idea would be to create chaos in Belarus for regime change in that country by way of Poland getting involved. This would weaken Putin considerably.

        Go to 12:45 mark –

        • 100% Putin, Luka just reads the script.

          If and when Putin decides to open a second front, Russians dressed in Belarus uniforms will be in place. There’s a huge arsenal moving into position along the 1000 km border. Ground is already getting mushy.

          Getting Luka to make noises about Polish aggression against Belarus just adds spice to the the borsht Uncle Vlad is cooking up. Baltic chihuahuas yapping – silly women are comic relief for govts in India, China, the Moslem world.

      “Ukraine has momentum “

      NATO chief Jens Stoltenberg on Tuesday said Russia was striking Ukraine’s infrastructure to make up for battlefield losses by its troops and vowed allies would “step up and sustain” support for Kyiv.

      “I think what we saw yesterday is actually a sign of weakness, because the reality is that they are not able to make progress on the battlefield.

      Russia is actually losing on the battlefield,” Stoltenberg told journalists.

      • Why then is Zelensky the one that seems desperate?

        Some of his troops are retreating from towns and repositioning while Putin now has a military force on Ukraine’s northern border (Belarus), not far from Kyiv.

    • NATO will soon conduct planned exercises of nuclear deterrence forces, – Stoltenberg

      In the near future, NATO will conduct planned exercises of the nuclear deterrent forces. They should help prevent a potential escalation from Russia.

      As Censor.NET informs, this was reported by RBC-Ukraine with reference to his video briefing by NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg.

      “These are long-planned exercises that we conduct annually and have entered into the exercise schedule long before the attack on Ukraine. The Steadfast Noon exercise is aimed at ensuring the effectiveness and safety of our nuclear deterrent forces. Our position is open. It would be strange if we canceled these planned exercises now training because of the war in Ukraine, it would send the wrong signal,” said the NATO Secretary General.

      He also noted that predictable behavior of NATO countries is a way to prevent escalation. The Alliance intends to maintain peace and prevent attacks on its borders.

      “If there were a basis for any misunderstandings in Moscow about our readiness to defend ourselves, it would be a risk for escalation,” Stoltenberg stressed.

      According to the Financial Times, the week-long Steadfast Noon exercise will involve 14 NATO members and aircraft capable of carrying nuclear weapons, as well as additional assets such as reconnaissance and refueling aircraft.

      The Canadian government said on Tuesday it will send 40 more combat engineers to help support Polish efforts to train Ukrainian forces, as part of its commitment to increasing military aid for Ukraine.

      The Canadian Armed Forces have trained more than 33,000 Ukrainian military and security personnel since 2015, but have paused aspects of the training effort since February.

      “Canada will deploy approximately 40 combat engineers to Poland to help Polish Forces train Ukrainian sappers on engineer reconnaissance, explosives, mining and de-mining,” Canada’s Defence Minister Anita Anand told a news conference in Warsaw.

      Canadian forces have also helped the Polish military and government in supporting refugee reception centres and have helped support Britain-based training programs.

      Anand said the additional training “will complement Canadian training of new Ukrainian recruits in the United Kingdom, and Canadian training of Ukrainian personnel on the use of the M777 howitzers that we donated to Ukraine.”

  6. Progressive Policing’ In Action – Criminals in Washington are Calling 911 as They Flee From Police Because the State’s Woke Laws Prevent Officers From Pursuing Them (VIDEO)
    By Julian Conradson

    The State of Washington, like most other Democrat-controlled areas, has experienced a massive spike in crime thanks to radical, felon-first policies that have emboldened criminals like never before.

    Defund the police, no-cash bail, decriminalize hard drugs, etc… etc… this notoriously progressive state has tried it all.

    However, one of the most ridiculous police ‘reform’ policies to be tried anywhere is currently wreaking havoc after it was implemented in the state last year. Passed overwhelmingly by the radicals in the state legislature, House Bill 1054 drastically limits the situations in which the state’s police officers can engage in vehicular pursuits of criminals. Now that the law is in place, they are only allowed to engage a fleeing suspect once permission is given by a commanding officer – a rare occurrence, thanks to the restrictive nature of the law.

    Naturally, the greatest (and likely only) benefactors of this, are the criminals. And, as to be expected, things have turned into a total clown show.

  8. Covid-19: Antiviral purchased by UK government does not lower risk of hospital admission, trial shows

    https://www.bmj.com/content/379/bmj.o2441

    Molnupiravir, a covid-19 antiviral drug bought by the UK government in the amount of 2.23 million doses, is no better than placebo at lowering the risks of death and hospital admission, a pivotal UK trial has found.

    Preliminary results released from the Panoramic trial of 25?783 people who were randomly assigned to open label treatment with molnupiravir plus usual care or to usual care alone found no significant difference between the two groups for the primary endpoint of death or hospital admission.1 The study has been published as a preprint and has not yet been peer reviewed.

    The UK was the first country to authorise Merck Sharp and Dohme’s molnupiravir (Lagevrio) for the treatment of mild to moderate covid-19 in adults with at least one risk factor for severe illness, in November 2021.2 The European Medicines Agency has still not approved the drug.

    When Sajid Javid, then health secretary, announced the deal to purchase molnupiravir he called it a “gamechanger for the most vulnerable and the immunosuppressed.”34 The government has been criticised for overhyping the antiviral: the editors of the Drug and Therapeutics Bulletin said that official government press releases had been “over-promotional and sensationalised.”5
