“And now she has seizures. It is a documented known adverse outcome which I am sure her parents were not made aware of before the fact. And I expect they will rush to deny the jab could have anything to do with it. The timing is right per the literature for it to be the jab.”

As people of science, I’m sure they are familiar with the concept of “cause and effect” and Occams Razor. If their daughter has no history of seizures then they have to at least be open to the possibility that the snake oil caused it, right? Roll Eyes

You can remind them that at least now they have attempted to protect themselves by inoculating their child with an experimental regimen even if the available science shows that the snake oil does no such thing. You can also wish them luck with their endless series of boosters that will weaken their immune systems and do who-knows-what damage to their bodies. Don’t forget to congratulate them on the mental illness they are inflicting on their children by isolating them from the world and reality in general.

My wife and I would love to get back to traveling - particularly via a cruise ship. However, every major cruise line still requires vaccination - and many demand current boosters.

Since we've never had the vaccine and given what is known now, we have no plans to ever do so, I started looking into why the cruise lines are requiring this when almost no other form of travel does.

What I found was that several European countries are still locked down and will not allow the unvaccinated to enter. The number of countries has been shrinking, but they still exist.

In my search, I found this travel map with adjustable filters. You can say where you are traveling from, what country issued your passport, and your vaccination status. Countries are color-coded as to their entry requirements.

New study: Six months after vaccination, protection is 'zero'

Study in NEJM notes that natural immunity confers robust protection even a year after infection.

https://www.israelnationalnews.com/news/355146

With Israeli authorities holding off on recommending a fifth vaccine dose against COVID based on their observations of its limited efficacy against the Omicron variant, a new study has confirmed their findings, showing that within half a year of vaccination, protection against symptomatic Omicron-variant coronavirus drops to zero.

The study was conducted in Qatar and published in the New England Journal of Medicine, based on data from the end of 2021 until the end of February 2022. The researchers also found that natural immunity derived from infection with coronavirus was still robust a year after infection, with half the number of previously-infected people contracting symptomatic COVID as compared to those with no previous infection.

Furthermore, after six months passed beyond vaccination, protection against symptomatic COVID was sometimes even negative, meaning that people were more likely to contract COVID than if they had never been vaccinated.

Giving a third (or booster) dose bumped protection up again, but the study only followed booster recipients for 45 days.

However, recent data from the United Kingdom following booster recipients for 20 weeks (five months) shows that protection against COVID by this point is negligible.

My wife and I are in the same exact situation as you.
We were lucky and did go on our last cruise February 2020 two weeks before they shut down cruising.
In it's place we are seriously looking at an all inclusive resort in Jamaica. We have friends that have vacationed this way and love it. They recommended we try it if only for a 4 or 5 day trip.
We are still holding out that the cruise industry change its mind and start to allow non vaccinated cruising soon. Some of the cruise company's have started allowing more non vaccinated cruisers who have a medical exemption.

Study CDC Cited in Arguing for COVID-19 Vaccines for Babies Being Updated

https://www.theepochtimes.com/...updated_4545448.html

A non-peer-reviewed study that U.S. government scientists cited in asserting COVID-19 is a leading cause of death for children is being updated after inaccuracies were detected.

The preprint paper, published in May, says that COVID-19 has been the fifth-leading cause of death during the pandemic for children aged 1 to 5. The authors, primarily British scientists, also concluded that COVID-19 has been a top cause of death for all children.

“Our findings underscore the importance of continued vaccination campaigns for [children ≥5 years] in the US and for effective Covid-19 vaccines for under 5 year olds,” they wrote.

But the paper has flaws, Seth Flaxman, a professor in Oxford University’s Department of Computer Science, and one of the authors, acknowledged on Twitter on June 19.

“We have received some feedback and criticism along several dimensions. We are planning to update the preprint to take into account some of this feedback,” he said.

The study was cited in three separate presentations across two meetings during the week of June 12 as government officials and expert advisers weighed whether to authorize and recommend vaccines for young children.


Dr. Katherine Fleming-Dutra, a CDC official, twice cited the study while presenting data on how COVID-19 has affected children while speaking to government advisory panels.

“COVID-19 was a leading cause of death among children and adolescents during the pandemic. Previously, we showed data to ACIP that during 2020 COVID-19 was the 11th cause of death among children ages five through 11 years. But this has changed over the course of the pandemic. And looking at data through April 2022, COVID-19 now ranks as the fourth and fifth causes of death among children zero through 19 years of age,” Fleming-Dutra said on June 17 while speaking to the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP), which advises the CDC.

Dr. Matthew Daley, who chairs the CDC panel’s COVID-19 vaccines work group, also cited the study during the meeting, and Dr. Sara Oliver, a CDC official, cited it multiple times the following day.

Indicating that COVID-19 was such a major cause of death among children had an impact on experts.

The statistics were “showing that this is not a minor illness in children,” Dr. Katherine Poehling, one of the panelists, said.

The slides and numbers were also disseminated widely on social media by influential people in the medical field, including Dr. Nirav Shah, director of the Maine CDC.

“Here’s the bottom line: #COVID19 is a leading cause of death among children 1-4 years of age,” Shah wrote in one post. “We can now re-write that table because of vaccines.”

But the statistics weren’t accurate. According to emails reviewed by The Epoch Times, the misinformation came from Flaxman and his co-authors not being aware of how COVID-19 deaths are listed in the United States.

The CDC’s National Center for Health Statistics, the source for the paper, separates deaths with COVID-19 as the underlying cause from deaths as a contributing, but not the, cause.

The paper said that only deaths where COVID-19 was “the underlying cause of death” were counted. But the authors listed 1,433 deaths among those aged 0 to 19. There were actually just 1,088 deaths, according to an Epoch Times review of the data in a CDC database called WONDER.

According to the emails, Flaxman did not know that WONDER had data for 2021 and 2022.

The study will be updated “primarily by focusing on Covid as an underlying cause of death using CDC WONDER Provisional Mortality Statistics,” Flaxman said on Twitter.

Flaxman did not respond to a query and the preprint website includes no indication that an update is pending.

Fleming-Dutra, Daley, and the CDC did not respond to requests for comment. Oliver could not be reached.

The FDA on June 17 authorized the Pfizer and Moderna COVID-19 vaccines for children as young as 6 months old, and the CDC the following day recommended the vaccines for virtually all toddlers and babies.

Even if the data were correct, the slides used the cumulative death toll against a single-year count for other causes of death. The numbers for non-COVID causes, such as assaults and heart diseases, were taken from 2019 from WONDER.

Kelley Krohnert, a Georgia resident who detected the issues and alerted Flaxman, said that she was appalled that the CDC would use a preprint paper without vetting it, and that the cumulative data was used against an annual number for other causes.

“The pre-print includes both cumulative and annualized rankings for Covid, but the CDC chose the more inflammatory of the two rankings. These were very obvious errors with the pre-print that even a cursory review should have identified. It was simple to check their sources and recreate their work to see the flaws,” Krohnert, who has identified other major problems with data in the past, told The Epoch Times in an email.

“I absolutely think the CDC should issue a correction, but I don’t expect they will,” she said.

It’s like Germany is turning into the alternate Earth Germany of that TV show from a few years ago called Counterpart. How dystopian can you get, forcing your citizens to wear masks for half the year like that? It’s insane

Young people dying in their sleep is now happening on a regular basis

Here's the latest victim. I wonder what the cause is? It only started happening after the vaccines rolled out, and it's ONLY happening to vaccinated people. The CDC refuses to investigate.

The term means someone didn't kill him and it wasn't an accident. It is common since the jabs rolled out for young people to die unexpectedly like this. It is only happening to the vaccinated...

The War on The Unvaccinated Was Lost

Editors Note: This is an adaption for Australian audiences of the original article by Susan Dunham "What We Learned From Hating the Unvaccinated" Please follow Susan on Instagram @susankaydunham for more great articles.

If Covid was a battlefield it would still be warm with the bodies of the unvaccinated. Thankfully the mandates are letting up and both sides of the war stumble back to the new normal.

The unvaccinated are the heroes of the last two years as they allowed us all to have a control group in the great experiment and highlight the shortcoming of the Covid vaccines. The unvaccinated carry many battle scars and injuries as they are the people we tried to mentally break, yet no one wants to talk about what we did to them and what they forced “The Science“ to unveil. We knew that the waning immunity of the fully vaccinated had the same risk profile as others within society as the minority of the unvaccinated, yet we marked them for special persecution. You see we said they had not “done the right thing for the greater good” by handing their bodies and medical autonomy over to the State.

Time will tell how much better off we the unvaccinated are than those that got the shot. Clearly the pressure to keep those that did get them to keep getting them is still going strong; as we’ve seen, they’re even targeting infants and toddlers. The faithful will continue getting the snake oil and the new mantra will be “get the Covid “vaccine” at the same time you get your flu shot”. I’ll be getting neither.

Yesterday, the Tampa Bay Times ran a story headlined, “Publix Won’t Give COVID Vaccine to Children Under 5.”
The sub-headline complained darkly, “The Lakeland grocery chain said it will not explain its decision ‘at this time.’”

I suspect most here who are not jabbed still have very many of their family who are. All of my 5 adult children chose it. Five of 9 grandchildren are jabbed, but only 2 will remain that way. So it is me and 2 grandkids not poisoned.

I worry every day about all of them. Antibody dependent enhancement is now happening. The jabbed have much lower resistance to new strains which will continue to emerge (due to immune escape in the jabbed!). Sudden adult death syndrome. Cardiac damage. Possible sterility in the girls. The 5 yr old now with seizures.

Same here. My wife is jabbed. My parents are jabbed. My son is jabbed and told me he was "trying to save your life" by yelling at me to get jabbed. But my two daughters also refuse to get jabbed.
