The U.S. is still mandating shots for entry... unless you cross the Mexican border.

Novak Djokovic, one of the greatest tennis players of all time, wasn’t permitted to play in the the U.S. Open tennis tournament because he refused to get the COVID shot.

Now:

Canadian tournament poker player Aaron Duczak had a hot mike moment this week while having a little vaccine chat with another off-screen player during a live-broadcast poker game. Here’s the transcript, followed by the video clip.

PLAYER: I wish I never would’ve got the vaccine.

AARON: What?

PLAYER: I wish I never would’ve got the vaccine.

AARON: I never did.

PLAYER: I’ve been having chest pain ever since I had that thing.

AARON: So you still having it?

PLAYER: Yeah. From time to time. I mean, they’re saying that, as you get, it hardens the arteries and …

AARON: Yeah, yeah, yeah.

PLAYER: I need to go get it checked out. I mean, but ever since, dude, it’s just…

AARON: That’s horrible.

PLAYER: Been weird.

AARON: I held out. I held out, until like, uh, not even a month ago.

PLAYER: Oh, is that right? Why did you decide to get it?

AARON: ‘Cause I wanted to come play the World Series.

PLAYER: But they didn’t have that guideline for us right now?

AARON: Pardon me?

PLAYER: But they didn’t have that?

AARON: But as a foreigner you can’t get in to …

PLAYER: Oh.

AARON: … the US.

It was just a different kind of bet to get into the World Series of Poker, and Aaron was playing the game, both ways. He went all-in. But here’s the thing: You got to know when to hold ‘em, and know when to fold ‘em. And especially, you got to know when to walk away, and know when to run.

Kenny can give the advice, but the players have to take it. It’s not automatic.

All the time now. Seventeen years old. It might not be vaccine related. The cause of death is not known at this time. All I can say is that this seems to be happening all the time now:

That's great

For some time now, every time I see this thread bumped, I know there’s a better than even chance another person under 50 has died without explanation. I feel especially bad for the kids who had no say. I’m really glad I told my wife she’d have to kill me first to get that shit injected in my son, and I goddamn meant it, too.

CBS News ran a segment about a new Cedars Sinai study finding that young people have become the HIGHEST RISK GROUP for dying from a heart attack. You’re welcome, young people! Welcome to the Millennium. Specifically, researchers found that 30% more younger people are now dying from heart attacks than they were before the pandemic.

They are baffled, of course. No idea. Not even a theory, really. Just guesses.

I’m sure you will enjoy the most hilarious part of the clip, starting about halfway, where the “expert” and the two anchors begin speculating about how the covid virus could be the culprit. Young people’s hearts could have been damaged by their covid infection, but they just didn’t have their heart attack till later. You never know.

My very favorite part was when the expert suggested that death certificates aren’t reliable. I laughed so hard I coughed up a clump of undigested spike protein.

Despite the fact that they are obviously willing to speculate and guess till the chipped monkeys come home, guess what they NEVER consider as a possible cause for all these young people’s heart attacks? Guess what they didn’t even MENTION during the segment? And, DESPITE the fact that the government has ALREADY admitted myocarditis is a side effect of this particular thing, the thing they didn’t mention, the unconsidered thing that nearly all young people have to get to go to college and stuff?

You know what that thing is. I don’t need to say it. And they didn’t say it either.

If CBS’s revolting failure to consider the vaccine — or even myocarditis! — isn’t enough of a giveaway that the network is a part of the coverup, think about how the study period — two years — conveniently collects the first year of the pandemic, obscuring the cause. Why not break the two years out separately, where we could gauge the impact of the jabs versus the impact of the virus?

You know why.

NFL Players’ Association Urged to Screen for Heart Issues Over Vaccine Side Effects

The NFL Players’ Association is being urged to offer players cardiac screening in light of the growing concern over COVID-19 vaccines causing heart inflammation.

The Health Freedom Defense Fund urged the association in a recent letter to implement screening because the vaccines can cause myocarditis, a form of heart inflammation. Young males are the most at risk.
Most NFL players received a COVID-19 vaccine under pressure from teams and the league.
“Safety signals illustrate that the near and long-term health outcomes of the COVID-19 vaccines remain uncertain,” Leslie Manookian, president and founder of the fund, told DeMaurice Smith, executive director of the association (NFLPA), in the missive.

How does one "screen" for heart damage? I'm seriously asking this question. I have family members that had the vaccine and I honestly want to know what lingo and technology I need to be looking into, so that at some point soon we can make sure everyone gets "screened" for heart damage.

There are tests and procedures to help confirm it.

Looks like the MSM has no choice but admit the truth, now that a meta-study by the Lancet shows what many of us knew for months. Of course, it doesn’t stop the “experts” from suggesting that “vaccination” further enhances immunity, despite ALL evidence that said snake oil not only fails to inhibit reinfection, but even enhances the chance of getting Covid repeatedly.

Immunity acquired from a Covid infection is as protective as vaccination against severe illness and death, study finds
The immunity generated from an infection was found to be “at least as high, if not higher” than that provided by two doses of an mRNA vaccine.

Immunity acquired from a Covid infection provides strong, lasting protection against the most severe outcomes of the illness, according to research published Thursday in The Lancet — protection, experts say, that’s on par with what’s provided through two doses of an mRNA vaccine.

Infection-acquired immunity cut the risk of hospitalization and death from a Covid reinfection by 88% for at least 10 months, the study found.

“This is really good news, in the sense that protection against severe disease and death after infection is really quite sustained at 10 months,” said the senior study author, Dr. Christopher Murray, the director of the Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation at the University of Washington.

The findings may be a small silver lining to the explosive omicron outbreak of last winter. With so many people infected, many most likely still benefit from that protection against severe disease, Murray said.

Still, experts stress that vaccination is the preferable route to immunity, given the risks of Covid, particularly in unvaccinated people.

“The problem of saying ‘I’m gonna get infected to get immunity’ is you might be one of those people that end up in the hospital or die,” Murray said. “Why would you take the risk when you can get immunity through vaccination quite safely?”

The study was the largest meta-analysis to date to look at immunity following infection. It included 65 studies from 19 countries and compared the risk of developing Covid again in people who had recovered from infections to people who hadn’t been infected through September. People who had hybrid immunity, or immunity from both infection and vaccination, were excluded. Omicron subvariants that emerged in the late fall and early winter of last year, including BQ.1 and the now-dominant XBB.1.5, weren’t included.

While protection from severe disease remained high, people could be reinfected — particularly with an omicron subvariant — consistent with evidence that protection against having symptoms wanes faster than protection against hospitalization and death.

Having Covid before the omicron variant emerged didn't do much to stop reinfection with the mutated version: Protection from reinfection in that case was 74% after one month but fell to 36% by month 10.

Dr. Bob Wachter, the chairman of the department of medicine at the University of California, San Francisco, said he did not expect the protection acquired from infection to be as robust as the meta-analysis found.

“The protection against severe infection, both the extent and the length of it at almost a year, is really surprisingly high,” said Wachter, who was not involved with the research.

The immunity generated from an infection was found to be “at least as high, if not higher” than that provided by two doses of an mRNA vaccine, the authors wrote.

While Murray and Wachter agreed that vaccination remains the safest route, having a past Covid infection should at least be considered in policymaking decisions going forward, such as vaccination requirements, they said.

“What Europe did with this evidence made a lot of sense, which is where evidence of past infection was seen as essentially equal to vaccination in terms of requirements to go into events or for employment,” Murray said.

At the very least, he added, officials should accept that evidence of recent infection is equivalent to vaccination.

Notably, the immunity acquired from infection did appear to wane more slowly than the immunity from two doses of an mRNA vaccine.

However, Murray said a booster dose would return protection to a higher level. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommends waiting three months after an infection to get a booster dose.

It may be reasonable for people with healthy immune systems to stretch that out a little bit more, to six months, as the immune response continues to develop, said Deepta Bhattacharya, a professor of immunobiology at the University of Arizona.

“We know that the immune response continues to mature over the course of about six months, both for vaccines and for infections,” he said. “Waiting about six months gives you the best bang for your buck.”

Wachter said that while it’s not harmful to get a booster earlier, there is some flexibility with the timing for people who recently had Covid.

“If you are thinking about getting a booster, it’s a perfectly reasonable call to look at this and say I’ll wait six or eight months before getting my booster,” Wachter said. “That’s a reasonable conclusion from looking at the study.”

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

They can keep their boosters.

In the face of evidence to the contrary.... these evil people are still trying to control the choices of others, and still pushing the shots.

They want you to think they are "relaxing" but they are not.

The evidence is that the shots DO NOT provide protection or lower all-cause mortality ... :

Most vs. least vaccinated states: Can you guess which did better when COVID broke out?

When a COVID infection wave hit the most and least vaccinated states in 2022, the most vaccinated state had the higher COVID case rates and the higher relative death peaks. Whoops!

The bottom line: higher vaccination —> higher deaths for all age groups. That’s why 15-year-olds with heart attacks are now the new normal when they were non-existent before the vaccines rolled out.

I ran an errand today and listened to my favorite XM channel. The Deejay said he had been staying at home after testing + for COVID. He then went into a list of TV shows he binged while quarantined. He also mentioned that he and his wife watched the same shows together.
But from separate rooms in the house, of course.

Jackson State Football Player (Kassem Vauls) Suddenly Collapses with Cardiac Arrest, Now in a Coma

Unclear the cause.

12 year football player collapses and dies-no one knew CPR

A 12-year-old New Jersey football player tragically collapsed and died Friday morning after waiting over 30 minutes for an ambulance when no one nearby knew CPR to save his life.

Elijah Jordan Brown Garcia was going through a light training session with his 10-year-old brother in preparation for a game for their local team, the Essex County Predators.

But the team's head coach had reportedly left, leaving the session in the charge of another coach and local parents, none of whom knew how to resuscitate the boy after he collapsed.

Elijah's devastated family are now pushing for all youth sports coaches to be CPR certified, which is not currently required under New Jersey state law.

The family should be asking why their child collapsed and died. That no one present knew CPR is a travesty in and of itself but were this my child, I would be demanding answers about what killed him. The coincidence ledger gains a new entry.

Thousands of children in the US experience sudden cardiac arrest every year. My son graduated high school in 2015 and lost two classmates that way. The school had a large push to certify more faculty on the use of AEDs. Are the numbers actually higher nowadays?
