Now why on earth should a “vaccine” that targets a virus cause a side effect involving women’s reproductive organs? And to pass it off as just another “new normal” is a little scary.

More from the article:

Individuals who took part in Covid vaccine trials were not asked if they experienced menstrual changes.

“Before the vaccinations came out, I would say our knowledge on the subject of the connection between immunization and menstrual changes, in general, was nil,” said Candace Tingen, a program director with the gynecologic health and disease branch of the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development. Tingen was not involved in the recent survey.

Overall, few studies assess the direct effect of vaccination on the menstrual cycle, and most pharmaceutical trials have not included questions about changes to menstruation.

Tingen views this as a mistake. Perhaps, she said, if Covid-19 vaccine trials had asked about menstruation, people would not have been surprised — or frightened — by this unexpected side effect.

“It was really this lack of information that I think caused confusion, fear and perhaps vaccine hesitancy ,” she said.

Study co-author Katherine M.N. Lee said that overall, menstruation is understudied when it’s not relevant to pregnancy.

“It gets ignored because of the structure of science,” Lee, an assistant professor at Tulane University, said. “There are very few senior people in science and medicine who are not white men. It’s just not something they are thinking about as part of their lived experience.”

In separate, but not completely unrelated news:

Countries are starting to realize birth rates are dropping and there are more stillbirths.

...rats who were given the vaccine had a 15% lower reproductive capacity. This was very concerning to people at the time.

Of course, the CDC ignored this. On insufficient evidence, the CDC recommended that pregnant women get vaccinated.

Now we see the fruits of that advice popping up in multiple countries where the birth rates are depressed including Sweden, the UK, Germany, Taiwan, and more. It’s hard to ignore and nobody can explain it.

Dramatic Decline in Births in Germany

Germany is experiencing a strange decline in births in the first quarter of 2022, totally inconsistent with their experience in recent years.

In theory in a perfect world, a vaccine is taken up by the cells where it is injected. The immune system reacts and does its magic there.

But, in the real world the vaccine spreads around the body, depositing bits in cells far away from the injection. It has been found that these mRNA jabs like to congregate in the ovaries and testes.

Added to that, it is proven the mRNA actually does write into the DNA in the cells, contrary to all the promises from Fauci, Pfizer, et al. Thus the code to make spike protein is written into the DNA which can be passed on to any babies of these people.

So, the baby's cells will be coded to make spike, which is very toxic and is causing the problems we know of with vaccine injury. Not every baby will get this code, it depends if the cell in the ovary or testicle had been reverse coded from the mRNA. But some will.

The jabs are worse than the virus, and both are due to Fauci and a few others.

The jabs are worse than the virus,

I may have said it here, but once upon a time there was a question over whether Covid was a weapon. Then the "vaccine" came around.

I asked: What if the vaccine is the weapon, and the virus was just a way to force everybody to become exposed.

^^^Things that make you go, hmmm...

Finally, a report being circulated that doesn’t push near useless “vaccines” and instead leans on actual science…and carried on yahoo! of all places. The gist? Our natural ability to fight infection is likely the answer to relegating Covid to annual flu-like status.

COVID reinfection has a silver lining—one that may tame the pandemic

Temperatures aren’t the only thing skyrocketing right now.

It’s the summer of reinfection, with the likelihood of getting COVID yet again higher than ever, thanks to an ultra-transmissible, immune-evading subvariant. Those variants have mutated what should have been a light, breezy summer to be enjoyed into yet another heavy season to be endured—with few opportunities for reprieve, even outdoors.

The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s chart shows an extended wave (or wall?) of infections, with cases slowly trending upward. But wastewater data—perhaps now our best indicator of COVID in communities—belies those numbers. Nearly half of nationwide sewage testing sites reported COVID levels at 60% to 100% of their all-time high as of this week, according to CDC data.

There’s Long COVID to keep in mind too: Early studies show that repeat COVID infections—even asymptomatic and mild ones—put individuals at greater risk for the nascent condition, which can result in long-term disability and even death.

We could all use a bit of good news right now, and the good news is this: COVID variants can evade antibody immunity all they want—but they’ll still have to reckon with T cells, the oft-ignored and not-as-well-understood other half of the immune system.

While antibodies, specialized proteins produced by the immune system, search for pathogens and incapacitate or destroy them, they don’t last long—typically just a handful of months. They latch on to a specific part of a virus that’s subject to change with new variants, potentially reducing their efficacy.

T cells, a type of white blood cell produced by stem cells in the bone marrow, don’t prevent infection. But they’re capable of dramatically reducing the severity of one, rendering a potentially deadly virus all but mute in some individuals.

Because their response isn’t limited to one specific part of the virus, as is the case with antibodies, they continue to attack, even when the virus mutates and changes shape. And their protection is much more durable, known to last for years, in some cases. Experts say that widespread accumulation of T cells—from vaccine and/or infection—in the population has likely led to generally less severe outcomes for new variants sweeping the country.

“T cells are kind of a win that I don’t think are appreciated as much as they should be,” Dr. Duane Wesemann, a professor at Harvard Medical School and a principal investigator in the Division of Rheumatology, Immunology, and Allergy at Brigham and Women’s Hospital, told Fortune. They’re “not quite a silver bullet—but a composite steel bullet that's worked for us and is already in hand.”

Society is “depressed a little bit because everyone is getting infected with new variants,” Wesemann said. “But T cells are still at work, doing the good work of preventing severe disease.”

The immune system's oft-neglected other half

New COVID subvariants like BA.4 and BA.5, currently sweeping the nation, have learned to evade immunity, leading to countless reinfections—even among vaccinated people who were infected by a different subvariant just a few weeks ago.

But when we talk about immune-evading variants, we’re really only talking about antibody immunity—and that’s only half of the story. There’s a whole other side of immunity that doesn’t get much attention, in part because T cells aren’t understood as well and are more difficult to study.

T cells “have played a critical role in shielding us from the worst ravages of COVID-19,” Harvard Medical School’s Ekaterina Pesheva writes in a recent blog, adding that they are the “unsung heroes” of the pandemic.

“When antibodies fail to stop the virus from getting into our cells, T cells come to the rescue,” she writes. “If antibodies are the rampart around the castle, then T cells are the elite guards inside it that disable intruders, should they manage to sneak in.”

That means that T cells have been a critical part of our natural immune response to COVID and vaccines.

“Antibodies are what we rely on to prevent infection, but if somebody becomes infected … those T cells can attenuate the course of the disease in what can be a very dramatic way,” Dr. Bruce Walker, director of the Ragon Institute of MGH, MIT, and Harvard, a medical institute focused on eradicating disease, and co-leader of the Massachusetts Consortium on Pathogen Readiness—told Fortune. .

COVID infection leads to a “robust” T-cell response that lasts for at least 15 months, according to a study published this spring in the journal Nature Immunology. And a 2020 study published in Nature found evidence of T-cell response to another coronavirus—SARS (severe acute respiratory syndrome), an epidemic that emerged in 2002 and killed hundreds—in previously infected patients 17 years later.

Rethinking herd immunity

New subvariants like BA.4 and BA.5 are increasingly running up against a wall of T-cell based immunity in the population at large, Dr. Amesh Adalja, a senior scholar at the Johns Hopkins Center for Health Security, told Fortune.

Classic herd immunity—a potential end game floated by some officials during the beginning of the pandemic—isn’t possible with COVID because it continues to mutate, vaccine uptake isn’t where it needs to be, and antibody protection wanes. T cells, while less potent, offer some level of durable defense—a “herd protection” of sorts.

“Everyone focuses only on antibody-induced immunity, but for severe disease, the T-cell immunity is very, very important, and it’s not something you can just get around,” Adalja said, adding that immunity is a spectrum that ranges from merely protecting against death, hospitalization, and severe infection, to preventing infection altogether.

Hospitalizations will undoubtedly rise during the BA.4 and BA.5 wave, he said. “But will they become unmanageable? That’s become increasingly difficult for COVID to do in the U.S.”

On a similar note, Walker believes that T cells “are really what’s going to turn this pandemic into something more controllable.”

“As these new variants are arising and people are getting exposed and infected, what we’ve seen is that, in general, the virulence of the disease has not been as great,” he said earlier this month. “I think a lot of that has to do with the fact that people have generated some level of T-cell response.”

“For weeks now more transmission has been occurring, but hospitalizations haven’t gone through the roof. I think it speaks to—at least for now—some of the wind having been taken out of the sails of the pandemic.”

I'm dealing with my second time for Chinavirus. First was ~18 months ago and lasted ~10 days; 7 were horrible. This time, I was told by a co-worker last Wednesday they'd been exposed over the prior weekend. I work 4X10 weeks and did my week. Friday, it hit, and with a vengeance. High, persistent fever, a strange numbing of the outer three fingers only on my right hand, and intense, dull pain in my right hip on top of the usual other symptoms.

Yesterday was markedly better, with a low-grade fever but no achy feeling, and moving to a localized infection in my throat. Today, I'm a little tired, the crud is breaking apart. I think I'll be fine tomorrow and able to work light-duty. It is true from my experience that if you've had it before, subsequent infections are not fun, but nothing to be scared of. And for the record, never had a shot.

Yahoo could have run that article 18 months ago if they'd not been vilifying Mallone, van den Bossche, Yeadon, and many others who were explaining it.

What’s surprising is that they are finally running it at all. The body’s natural response to the virus, manufactured or not, is proving to be the most robust protection. Every day that passes shows the “vaccines” failures, not their successes.

Major Study Confirms COVID Vaccines Alter Women's Periods

Since Covid vaccines first became available more than a year and a half ago, women have been sounding alarms about the shots' adverse effect on their menstruation.

For example, in an August 2021 article at The Grayzone that criticized the U.S. medical establishment's failure to study the effects of the vaccines on women's reproductive systems, Marcie Smith Parenti recounted disturbing experiences from her own circle of friends:

Their symptoms have included hemorrhagic bleeding lasting more than a month; heavy intermittent bleeding for four months; passing golf-ball size clots of blood; and extreme cramping, serious enough to land one friend in the ER.

On social media, the The Grayzone was accused of "fearmongering," being "anti-vax," and peddling "dangerous disinformation." Meanwhile, the response of the FDA and CDC to women's pleas might be best characterized as a bureaucratic shrug.

In August, NPR said the FDA and all three U.S. vaccine manufacturers claimed "they have not seen evidence that any of the vaccines cause menstrual irregularities." The American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists said it was "aware" of the complaints, but urged women to plunge forward with vaccinations anyway without regard to the timing of their cycles.

Now, however, a large-scale study adds substantial new confirmation of what thousands of women have been proclaiming since the jabs started. As NBC News reports:

"An analysis published Friday in the journal Science Advances found that 42% of people with regular menstrual cycles said they bled more heavily than usual after vaccination...14% reported a lighter period."

The study also found many women who don't typically menstruate—such as those beyond menopause and those on certain long-term contraceptives—experienced "breakthrough" or unexpected bleeding after receiving Covid vaccines.

I’m seeing an increase in the number of mask wearers around here. Mark my words, we’re going to have mandates at least from October to April every year now.

Not if everyone gives a collective “fuck you” and dares any state or federal entity to do shit about it. They might get a different “great reset” than they are shooting for.

My wife and I have been out and about quite a bit this past week, Disney, the mall, restaurants, our favorite brewery and the number of masked people was minimal.
I would put the numbers at less than 5% of the people we saw were masks and most were not even wearing the right mask or wearing them properly.
I think if the state governments push the mask mandate again you will see a significant push back from the population.
I think governments are starting to find out the American population is not as dumb as they once thought they were.

Half the population is far dumber than you think, regardless of masks.

What do they say? Think of the average dumb person. Then realize half the country is dumber than him.

I'm only seeing an occasional person wearing a mask around here.
I would guess less than one percent.
And this is big time liberal sheep country.

I do an informal survey every week when I go to church. This week there were only six mask wearers in the church. That’s way down from where we were. Sure, it’s likely to increase somewhat but not to anywhere near where it was.

The Feds Pile Up Vaccine 'Adverse Event' Reports As They Decry Scaremongering Elsewhere

Authored by Clayton Fox via RealClear Investigations,

Since the Food and Drug Administration authorized the first vaccines for COVID-19 in late 2020, the government and much of the media have insisted that the medicines developed in record time are safe and effective. Those who raised questions about them have been routinely dismissed as conspiracy theorists.

And yet an online database co-administered by the FDA and the Centers for Disease Control has compiled more than 1.3 million reports of vaccine-implicated “adverse events” running the gamut from mild to severe, including 29,000 deaths.

Representative entries include:

A 44-year-old male from California with a blood clot in the brain (CVST) five days after receiving Pfizer vaccine, dose unknown.

A 31-year-old female from Pennsylvania with heart inflammation (myocarditis) two days after receiving Moderna’s booster.

A 58-year-old female from California with blood clots in legs (DVT) after receiving Johnson & Johnson booster. She reported:

“Day after booster on 11/16/21 my right leg was aching. 7 days later on 11/23/21 my sole of my right foot was very painful upon walking. This resolved 2 days later by 11/25/21. On day 11 (11/26/21) my ankle was slightly swollen and painful to touch. These symptoms continued to migrate up my leg to my inner thigh. On 12/13/21 I was seen by my primary care Doctor and was sent for a d-dimer blood test which was 1.77. I was seen in vascular dept and ultrasound indicated multiple DVT from my groin to my ankle.”

These reports are not anecdotes from “anti-vaxxers” on the dark web. They come from the federal government’s open-source log, the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System. It allows anyone to go online and report a bad reaction that could be linked to any vaccine, including those for COVID-19. (RealClearInvestigations has linked above to VAERS reports posted at Openvaers.com, an independently run and easier to navigate database that copies reports verbatim from the CDC’s less user-friendly “WONDER” system.)

While the reports are unfiltered and unexamined, the idea is that such public input will allow researchers to identify potential problems. But the sheer number of reports, and their specificity, have the attention of concerned scientists and even some politicians like Senator Ron Johnson of Wisconsin, who has invited people harmed by vaccines to testify before Congress and advocates compensation for them.
