COVID-19 vaccination during pregnancy helps protect newborns, Canadian study suggests
Getting vaccinated against COVID-19 during pregnancy passes along protection against infection and hospitalization to newborns, a Canadian study suggests.
The research, published in the British Medical Journal (BMJ) on Wednesday evening, found that protection against COVID-19 for infants was most effective when mothers got their second or third dose of mRNA vaccine during pregnancy.
A booster shot during pregnancy bolstered protection against the Omicron variant in particular, said the study authors from the Canadian Immunization Research Network.
Canadian infectious diseases specialists, obstetrician-gynecologists and immunologists have long urged pregnant people to stay up to date on their COVID-19 vaccinations — including boosters — because they are at higher risk of serious illness if they become infected.
That in turn can harm the fetus, they say.
... from Jim Stone:
BIG SLIP UP AT THE WEF:
MODERNA CEO STATES 100,000 COVID VAX DOSES WERE #MADE IN #2019 #before the actual #pandemic hoax was launched.
We just got confirmation that the #MRNA jabs were formulated ahead of time, IF covid was real, then Pfizer created it, their shot was very similar to Moderna's and the two were probably chit chatting ahead of time.
I am fact checking the context of this now.
UPDATE: confirmed real. Trolls are trying to debunk this, but before the "pandemic" they already made 100,000 doses and wanted a billion more doses in 2020
THAT IS HOW THEY DEVELOPED THE VAX "IN TWO DAYS" IN JANUARY, they sure as hell did not.

They didn't have COVID but were vented anyway, thanks to the baseless theory that you could have COVID-19 and be infectious without symptoms. Hospitals also received massive incentives to diagnose patients with COVID — whether they actually had it or not — and to put them on a vent.
Frontline #Nurse Blew the Whistle on Vent Misuse
Source: https://www.bitchute.com/video/ZgUFa48P5fwZ/
Some of you may remember Erin Olszewski, a retired Army sergeant and frontline nurse who blew the whistle on the horrific mistreatment of COVID patients at Elmhurst Hospital Center in Queens, New York, which was "the epicenter of the epicenter" of the COVID-19 pandemic in the U.S.
She described14 a number of problems at Elmhurst, including the disproportionate mortality rate among people of color, the controversial rule surrounding Do Not Resuscitate (DNR) orders, lax personal protective equipment (PPE) standards, and the failure to segregate COVID-positive and COVID-negative patients, thereby ensuring maximum spread of the disease among noninfected patients coming in with other health problems.
Olszewski also highlighted the fact that COVID-negative patients were being listed as confirmed positive and placed on mechanical ventilation, thus artificially inflating the numbers while more or less condemning the patient to death from lung injury.
Making matters worse, many of the doctors treating these patients were not trained in critical care. One of the "doctors" on the COVID floor was a dentist. Residents (medical students) were also relied on, even though they were not properly trained in how to safely ventilate, and were unfamiliar with the potent drugs used.
At the time, Olszewski blamed financial incentives for turning the hospital into a killing field. Elmhurst, a public hospital, received $29,000 extra for a COVID-19 patient receiving ventilation, over and above other treatments, she said.
If Elmhurst had infection control in mind when ventilating patients, they certainly didn't follow through, as COVID-positive and negative patients were comingled — a strategy Olszewski suspected was intended to drive up the COVID case and mortality numbers.
Killing for #Profit
Others have also highlighted the role of financial incentives. In early April 2020, Minnesota family physician and state Sen. Scott Jensen explained:15
"Medicare has determined that if you have a COVID-19 admission to the hospital you'll get paid $13,000. If that COVID-19 patient goes on a ventilator, you get $39,000; three times as much."
Former #CDC director Robert Redfield also admitted that financial policies may indeed have resulted in artificially elevated hospitalization rates and death toll statistics. As reported August 1, 2020, by the Washington Examiner:16
"… Redfield agreed that some hospitals have a monetary incentive to overcount coronavirus deaths … 'I think you're correct in that we've seen this in other disease processes, too.
Really, in the HIV epidemic, somebody may have a heart attack but also have HIV — the hospital would prefer the [classification] for HIV because there's greater reimbursement,' Redfield said17 during a House panel hearing … when asked by Rep. Blaine Luetkemeyer about potential 'perverse incentives.' Redfield continued: 'So, I do think there's some reality to that …"
In addition to receiving exorbitant payments for COVID admissions and putting patients on a ventilator, hospitals are also paid extra for:18

Use of remdesivir
COVID deaths
When everything is said and done, a COVID patient can be "worth" as much as $250,000, but for the maximum payment, they have to leave in a body bag. If we know anything, it's that profit motives can make people commit atrocious acts, and that certainly appears true when it comes to COVID treatment.
In the U.S., hospitals also LOST federal funding if they failed or refused to administer remdesivir and/or ventilation, which further incentivized them to go along with what amounts to malpractice at best, and murder at worst.
We need harsh, hard investigations with consequences — and activists need to write bills tying the hands of protocolists to prevent them from ever again killing one patient to hypothetically save another — under threat of a murder charge. ~ James Lyons-Weiler
Patient Rights Have Evaporated
There's also evidence that certain hospital systems, and perhaps all of them, have waived patients' rights, making anyone diagnosed with COVID a virtual prisoner of the hospital, with no ability to exercise informed consent. As noted by Citizens Journal in December 2021:19
"We now see government-dictated medical care at its worst in our history since the federal government mandated these ineffective and dangerous treatments for COVID-19, and then created financial incentives for hospitals and doctors to use only those 'approved' (and paid for) approaches.
Our formerly trusted medical community of hospitals and hospital-employed medical staff have effectively become 'bounty hunters' for your life.
Patients need to now take unprecedented steps to avoid going into the hospital for COVID-19. Patients need to take active steps to plan before getting sick to use early home-based treatment of COVID-19 that can help you save your life."
There Must Be a Reckoning
There's no telling how many COVID patients have already lost their lives to this medical malpractice, and it must stop. Patient rights must be reestablished and be irrevocable, we need to hold decision-makers to account, and lastly, we have to somehow ensure that our hospitals cannot be turned into killing fields for profit ever again. As noted by Lyons-Weiler in his January 2023 article:20
"We need harsh, hard investigations with consequences — and activists need to write bills tying the hands of protocolists to prevent them from ever again killing one patient to hypothetically save another — under threat of a murder charge.
We need legislation for 'on-demand' scripts for off-label medicines that patients want for potentially deadly infections — regardless of 'FDA Approval' (FDA does not, by definition, have to 'approve' off-label scripts."
COVID Treatment Guidance
While SARS-CoV-2 has become milder with each iteration, I still believe it's a good idea to treat suspected COVID at first signs of symptoms — especially if you've gotten the COVID jab. COVID hospitalization and death are now "pandemics of the vaccinated," to reuse and rephrase one of the globalist cabal's favorite mantras.
Perhaps it's the common cold or a regular influenza, maybe it's the latest COVID variant. Either way, since they're now virtually indistinguishable, at least in the early stages of infection, your best bet is to treat symptoms as you would treat earlier forms of COVID. Treatment for long-COVID also overlaps with the protocols for SARS-CoV-2 infection. Early treatment protocols with demonstrated effectiveness include:
The Front Line COVID-19 Critical Care Alliance's (FLCCC's) prevention and early at-home treatment protocol. They also have an in-hospital protocol and long-term management guidance for long-haul COVID-19 syndrome. You can find a listing of doctors who can prescribe ivermectin and other necessary medicines on the FLCCC website.
The AAPS protocol
Dr. Tess Lawrie's World Council for Health protocol
America's Frontline Doctors
Based on my review of these protocols, I've developed the following summary of the treatment specifics I believe are the easiest and most effective."

Canada: COVID-19 misinformation cost at least 2,800 lives and $300M, new report says
The spread of COVID-19 misinformation in Canada cost at least 2,800 lives and $300 million in hospital expenses over nine months of the pandemic, according to estimates in a new report out Thursday.
The report — released by the Council of Canadian Academies (CCA), an independent research organization that receives federal funding — examined how misinformation affected COVID infections, hospitalizations and deaths between March and November of 2021.
The authors suggest that misinformation contributed to vaccine hesitancy for 2.3 million Canadians. Had more people been willing to roll up their sleeves when a vaccine was first available to them, Canada could have seen roughly 200,000 fewer COVID cases and 13,000 fewer hospitalizations, the report says.
Alex Himelfarb, chair of the expert panel that wrote the report, said that its estimates are very conservative because it only examined a nine-month period of the pandemic.
well, if these two are managed opposition shills buying trust, they're succesfully making a fairly large purchase here with me and those #healthy #rants.

Parents are not OK after three years of Covid and a brutal winter of children’s respiratory illness
This a pretty heart-wrenching article on what parents are going though with so many sick kids right now.
As new Omicron subvariant spreads, WHO backs mask wearing on long flights
Countries should consider recommending passengers wear masks on long-haul flights to counter the latest Omicron subvariant given its rapid spread in the United States, World Health Organization (WHO) officials said on Tuesday.
In Europe, the XBB.1.5 subvariant of the virus that causes COVID-19 is being detected in small but growing numbers, WHO/Europe officials said at a press briefing.
Passengers should be advised to wear masks in high-risk settings such as long-haul flights, said WHO's senior emergency officer for Europe, Catherine Smallwood, adding: "This should be a recommendation issued to passengers arriving from anywhere where there is widespread COVID-19 transmission."
XBB.1.5 — the most transmissible Omicron subvariant that has been detected so far — accounted for 27.6 per cent of COVID-19 cases in the United States for the week ending Jan. 7, U.S. health officials have said.
Omicron offshoot XBB.1.5 could drive new Covid-19 surge in US
For weeks, scientists have been watching a slew of Omicron descendants duke it out for dominance of Covid-19 transmission in the United States, with the BQs – BQ.1 and BQ.1.1 – seeming to edge out all the others to claim a slight lead.
The result has been a gradual rise in cases and hospitalizations that never seemed to reach the peaks of this summer’s BA.5 wave and was certainly nothing like the tsunami of illness caused by the original Omicron strain a year ago.

(Photo credit should read CFOTO/Future Publishing via Getty Images)But on Friday, the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s Covid-19 variant dashboard revealed a new dark horse that could soon sweep the field: XBB.1.5.
For many years I've participated in the Outbreaks Near Me program (formerly Flu Near Me), sponsored by Boston Children's Hospital. I think it's a good program. It allows you to self-report your health status at regular intervals. Many cases of Covid, including mine a year ago, and flu would otherwise go unreported. You might consider using it to help contribute more data and to see statistics in your area.

Ontario judge dismisses 'puzzling' $1M libel action by anti-vaxx nurses
This is actually a pretty important legal case here in #Canada. A judge has dismissed a suit by three anti-vaxxer nurses who were trying to silence Canadian Nurses Association (CNA) and a small B.C. news outlet Together News Inc. (TNI) for criticizing their anti-science stance. The judge found not only did their case have no merits but their choice or whom to sue was very odd:
In her 29-page decision issued Dec. 23, Superior Court Justice Marie-Andrée Vermette sided with the defendants, saying the plaintiffs "failed to establish they have suffered sufficiently serious harm" and "failed to show a causal link between the harm they allege and the publications in issue."
Vermette cited the anti-SLAPP legislation, saying there were "significantly more important sources of harm" to the nurses' reputations that were "unrelated" to the publications, including:
- Professional misconduct investigations of all three nurses by the province's nursing regulator, the College of Nurses of Ontario (CNO).
- The fact all three nurses were terminated from their respective jobs with cause.
- Numerous media reports about the the nurses, including articles by what the court called "high-profile media organizations."
The plaintiffs are now on the hook for all court costs.
China's emergency services 'overwhelmed' as COVID-19 wave sweeps country
As China grapples with its first-ever national COVID-19 wave, emergency wards in small cities and towns southwest of Beijing are stunned as they attempt to reel with the massive influx of critical cases.
Emergency rooms are turning away ambulances, relatives of sick people are searching for open beds, and patients are slumped on benches in hospital corridors and lying on floors for lack of beds.
In more than three decades of emergency medicine, Beijing-based doctor Howard Bernstein said, he has never seen anything like this.

Mask up and get vaccinated because things are going to get worse in January: Etches
Ottawa's medical officer of health expects the respiratory virus situation in the city to get worse after the holidays.
In her end of year briefing to the board of health, Dr. Vera Etches said Ottawa is seeing a high rate of respiratory viruses heading into a busy time for families to gather.
"It's not easy to hear this but we expect things to get worse after the holidays," Etches said.
"Because so many people gather indoors, aren't wearing masks."

Only a few weeks into this flu season, 11 deaths have already been reported among children and teens across Canada
Some experts say providing timely information about the severity of a communicable disease like the flu can help people protect themselves and in this case, their kids.
“…that kind of information can help inform the public and can be useful to encourage people to seek and listen to public health advice,” [Dr. Rod Lim, head of pediatric emergency at the London, Ont., Health Sciences Centre] said.
B.C.'s revelation of its pediatric flu deaths provides a concrete example of how this can work: it triggered a surge in parents bringing their kids to get vaccinated against the flu.
