This guy...Is there any proof to his claim of inventing MrNA tech?
no. he entered the scene in the late 80's.
read that Hopkins link. it gives a brief history. doesnt mention names.
Sounds like if at the beginning someone would have said that he was one of the first researchers into RNA that led to the technology for mRNA vaccines he would be singing a different tune. A crybaby whose minor achievement went unnoticed.
I think we're at the point in the disaster movie where everyone finally realizes that there's nothing they can do to stop it; just keep your family as safe as you can and hope you ride it out successfully.
I agree . Stay safe my friend. The shit is hitting the fan here . Just a matter of when. My elder kids are out of quarantine tommorow well are meant to be. But this half assed government has made some shit rules to suit people spending money ahead of health. Now Get this you can quarantine 7 days not 10 if you test neg on day 6 and 7 on lateral flow. That nobody can get. And we were told they are only for non symptomatic cases. My kids are still positive on lateral after 9 days but can go out tomorrow. Cant have pcr for 28 days after infection and my younger 17 year old hasn't caught it yet so whats the deal. madness

I guess we knew this already but holy shit....Birx basically says "I'll leave town so the WH can use their own covid narrative without having to worry about me saying it's bullshit"
I think we're at the point in the disaster movie where everyone finally realizes that there's nothing they can do to stop it; just keep your family as safe as you can and hope you ride it out successfully.
I'm 6 weeks out of my 3rd booster and thinking exposure is better sooner than later...

along with the good news that the new strain is 2/3 less likely to cause hospitalization compared to Delta, here is more goodish news. Having it blow through quickly would be great for the economy and for people's state of mind.
NAIROBI — South Africa’s huge wave of omicron cases appears to be subsiding just as quickly as it grew in the weeks after the country first announced to the world that a new coronavirus variant had been identified.
South Africa’s top infectious-disease scientist, who has been leading the country’s pandemic response, said Wednesday that the country had rapidly passed the peak of new omicron cases and, judging by preliminary evidence, he expected “every other country, or almost every other, to follow the same trajectory.”
“If previous variants caused waves shaped like Kilimanjaro, omicron’s is more like we were scaling the North Face of Everest,” Salim Abdool Karim said in an interview, referring to the near-vertical increase in infections that South Africa recorded in the first weeks of December.
BC and Quebec brought back restrictions, Quebec is rumoured to be bringing a curfew. Ontario has reduced capacity limits… it’s been recommended that double dosed don’t mix with triple dosed…no idea if the no dosed and single dosed can mix with anyone…they appear to be left in limbo. They should just spend Christmas alone in a dark cold room…
and it’s recommended that people in these places wear self contained breathing apparatus’s and only leave your home when necessary…leaving for food is no longer necessary…most Canadians can forage for leaves, grass…etc..Merry Christmas Canada 🇨🇦

"Covid-19 may well have been one attempt by the Earth to protect itself.
Gaia will try harder next time with something even nastier."
I don’t know if it is too late for humanity to
avert a climate catastrophe, but I am sure there is no chance if we
continue to treat global heating and the destruction of nature as
separate problems.
That
is the wrongheaded approach of the United Nations, which is about to
stage one big global conference for the climate in Glasgow, having just
finished a different big global conference for biodiversity in Kunming.
This
division is as much of a mistake as the error made by universities when
they teach chemistry in a different class from biology and physics. It
is impossible to understand these subjects in isolation because they are
interconnected. The same is true of living organisms that greatly
influence the global environment. The composition of the Earth’s
atmosphere and the temperature of the surface is actively maintained and
regulated by the biosphere, by life, by what the ancient Greeks used to
call Gaia.
Almost 60 years ago, I suggested
our planet self-regulated like a living organism. I called this the Gaia
theory, and was later joined by biologist Lynn Margulis, who also
espoused this idea. Both of us were roundly criticised by scientists in
academia. I was an outsider, an independent scientist, and the
mainstream view then was the neo-Darwinist one that life adapts to the
environment, not that the relationship also works in the other
direction, as we argued. In the years since, we have seen just how much
life – especially human life – can affect the environment. Two genocidal
acts – suffocation by greenhouse gases and the clearance of the
rainforests – have caused changes on a scale not seen in millions of
years.
Because
subjects like astronomy, geology, and meteorology are taught separately
in schools and universities, few people are aware of the natural forces
affecting the Earth’s surface temperature.
For
billions of years the Earth’s surface temperature has been determined
mainly by the radiant heat coming from the sun. This energy increased
over time because it is the nature of stars like the sun to increase
their heat output as they grow older. But temperatures on Earth remained
relatively stable thanks to Gaia: forests, oceans and other elements in
the the Earth’s regulating system, which kept the surface temperature
fairly constant and near optimal for life.
The
global warming that concerns all of us, and which will be discussed this
week in Glasgow, includes a great deal of extra heating that comes as a
consequence of extracting and burning fossil fuels since about the
middle of the 19th century. That releases methane, carbon dioxide and
other gases into the atmosphere. They absorb radiant heat and stop it
escaping from Earth. This is what causes global warming.
The
amount of global warming depends hugely on the properties of water.
When cold ice forms, much of it is white snow. This reflects the
sunlight back to space and is cooling. But when it is warm, the water
vapour in the air is a powerful greenhouse gas that makes it warmer
still.
Much of the confusion over global
heating comes about because of the huge quantities of heat needed to
change the state of water. Few are aware that to melt a gram of ice
takes 80 calories, enough heat to raise the temperature of 1ml of water
to 80C. Try an ice cube in your boiling hot tea.
Then
imagine how much heat was needed to melt large areas of the polar ice
cap during the recent summer and how much hotter the world would have
been if the ice had not been there. No wonder there is confusion about
whether there is global heating or not.
Warnings
that once seemed like the doom scenarios of science fiction are now
coming to pass. We are entering into a heat age in which the temperature
and sea levels will be rising decade by decade until the world becomes
unrecognisable. We could also be in for more surprises. Nature is
non-linear and unpredictable, never more than at a time of transition.
Lowering
these risks and adapting to those we can no longer avoid will require a
mobilisation of resources on the scale of a war economy. We have no
choice but to reduce the burning of fossil fuels or face even worse
consequences.
But we should also not become
over-reliant on renewable power, which will leave us with an energy gap.
We need to build more nuclear power stations to overcome that, though
the greens will first have to get over their overblown fears of
radiation.
The dangers are nowhere near as bad
as they are often painted. I’ve travelled millions of miles by air, and
all that time I have been exposed to levels of radiation that are ten
times as great as at ground level. The dangers are exaggerated.
We
also need to address the problem of overpopulation and to urgently halt
the destruction of tropical forests. Most of all, we need to look at
the world in a holistic way.
I am not hopeful of a positive outcome at Cop26,
knowing who is participating. I was not invited to Glasgow, though that
is hardly a surprise. As well as being 102 years old, I am an
independent scientist, and the university academics have never been
comfortable with that.
But my fellow humans
must learn to live in partnership with the Earth, otherwise the rest of
creation will, as part of Gaia, unconsciously move the Earth to a new
state in which humans may no longer be welcome. The virus, Covid-19, may
well have been one negative feedback. Gaia will try harder next time
with something even nastier.
James Lovelock is the originator of Gaia theory and the author,
most recently, of Novascene. This op-ed was told to Jonathan Watts, the
Guardian’s global environment editor
“The fear of death follows from the fear of life. A man [or woman] who lives fully is prepared to die at any time.”
A vaccine developed by the DoD...The conspiracists will go through the roof!
I know! That's even worse than one developed by a pharmaceutical. The reality is the only vaccine that can be trusted is one that's cooked up in a home lab in WV. All others are dangerous.

The WaPo has made this covid article regarding omricon and what to do if you get it, free. Because even if vaccinated, chances are, you’ll get it. It’s hopeful and knowledge is power.
Ah good old blue fuck the vaccine just get a card without actually getting the vaccine, classy folks
These are everywhere. In every profession. There are doctors who will shoot the vaccine in the garbage and put you in the system for $500 around me. This was bound to happen and it’s been happening from the minute there were mandates. Not surprising at all.

If you really know of a doctor that does that you should report his ass.

Not a doctor. Doctors. It’s not in me to snitch. Karma will get them eventually.

Not sure what doctors you deal with but Surgeons I deal with on a daily basis don’t act like that at all,

Why would anyone even pay $500 to fake a shot? The cards are easy enough to fake, when I got my first shot I couldn’t believe how simple the bad card was and my first thought was it’s useless, they’ll be faked. All you need is a printer and card stock. Im not endorsing faking a shot or card. Just saying I don’t see why anyone would pay $500 to fake the shot. If you’re willing to do that, there’s cheaper and easier alternatives.
