And Yes, that is really from National Geographic. They really ran that picture with that story.

Personally, I'm not going to panic until we reach the Delta Tau Chi variant.....

I'll say it again- they have lied to us so much, I don't believe anything. For any question which may be posed, and the array of possible answers, I don't believe A, B, C, D and on and on. Answers in the affirmative- I don't believe 'em. Answers in the negative- I don't believe those, either.
If they told me my correct full name, date of birth and the like, I'd call 'em a Goddamned liar and set upon a path of discovering my true identity. If they told me the sun will rise tomorrow, then I would know that the end of the world is at hand, because, surely, the sun won't rise tomorrow.

You might consider this a dilemma, but I don't. I'm just gonna sit back and see how things play out. That's our best bet at divining the truth.

COVID and Flu Jabs To Be Coadministered to Kids This Summer

https://articles.mercola.com/s...31317&rid=1204206120

STORY AT-A-GLANCE

The CDC's Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) unanimously voted to coadminister the COVID-19 and flu vaccine without any scientific evidence to back the decision

CDC staff cite one preprint study funded by Novavax, which the CDC said showed coadministration was safe. However, the study was small, used participants with fewer comorbid conditions and used the Novavax vaccine, which is not an mRNA vaccine

The ACIP also warns providers about increased reactogenicity with the combined shot as they expect more adverse reactions. Data suggest that flu vaccines increase your risk of death from COVID-19

Parents should be aware of the risks of giving children a COVID-19 vaccine for several reasons: Children usually are asymptomatic or only experience mild symptoms; their ability to transmit the infection is limited; many have natural immunity after recovering from the illness; and vaccinating children to protect adult health has not been proven to be an effective disease control strategy
Currently, the COVID-19 vaccine is being distributed under an Emergency Use Authorization (EUA) granted to vaccine manufacturers by the FDA and, as of June 18, 2021, there have been reports of nine COVID-19 vaccine-related deaths in children ages 12 to 17. Medical professionals administering vaccines are required to report vaccine reactions to the federal Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS); if they refuse, you can file a report yourself

The CDC's Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) recently unanimously voted 14-0 to coadminister the COVID-19 and flu vaccine to adults and children.1 The proposed policy for the 2021-2022 influenza season was made to implement changes that coincide with the timing of children returning to school in fall 2021, and to align with the CDC’s guidelines allowing COVID-19 vaccines to be coadministered with other vaccines.

This also will be the first influenza season2 where nearly all available flu vaccines are quadrivalent,3 rather than trivalent. This means flu shots will contain four vaccine strain influenza viruses — two influenza A viruses and two influenza B viruses.

The ACIP vaccine policy recommendations also included explicit information about when influenza vaccines should be given to children and adults.4 For example, the recommendations direct vaccine providers to give non-pregnant adults flu shots after August because of concerns about waning vaccine-acquired artificial immunity.

Vaccine providers are directed to give children flu shots by the end of October, with the dog kidney (MDCK) cell-based Flucelvax quadrivalent vaccine now being recommended for children starting at age 2 and older.

The policy also calls for precautions in giving a vaccine to anyone with a moderate or severe acute illness, history of Guillain-Barré syndrome within six weeks of receiving an influenza vaccine, or a history of severe allergic reactions to any other dose of flu vaccine.5

Unanimous Vote: CDC Approved One Flu and COVID Vaccine
In addition to approving the coadministration of flu and COVID-19 vaccines, ACIP warns that providers should be aware their patients may exhibit increased reactogenicity. This is a term health authorities use to describe expected adverse reactions to pharmaceutical products, especially hyper-inflammatory immunological responses to vaccination.

The literature6 calls it a “physical manifestation of the inflammatory response to vaccination” and “symptoms may include pain, redness, swelling or induration for injected vaccines, and systemic symptoms, such as fever, myalgia, headache or rash.”

In other words, the CDC expects more people to experience side effects/adverse reactions when influenza and COVID-19 vaccines are administered concurrently. ACIP member Dr. Matthew Daly believes that this year “Most adolescents will be vaccinated [against] COVID-19 in the summer and have their flu vaccination in the fall.”7

But coadministration of the two vaccines next year could increase the number of children receiving COVID-19 vaccine together with influenza vaccine and, subsequently, potentially increase reactogenicity. In the same meeting, the committee also voted unanimously to recommend a shorter rabies vaccination series for children traveling to areas where the potential risk is high.

Lastly, ACIP recommended the dengue vaccine for children ages 9 to 16 who live in areas where the virus is endemic. According to the CDC,8 the dengue virus spreads through the bite of a mosquito, infecting up to 400 million people each year. Each year, nearly 100 million will get sick and 22,000 will die from dengue.

No Evidence to Suggest Concurrent Vaccination Policy Is Safe
Despite the unanimous vote by CDC health experts charged with protecting the health of U.S. citizens, there is no evidence to suggest that giving children or adults influenza and COVID-19 vaccines simultaneously on the same day is safe. Some ACIP members noted the lack of data proving that concurrent vaccination policy is safe.

However, Medpage9 reports that CDC staff countered by citing one preprint study10 — published just days before the ACIP meeting — that examined the safety issues and efficacy of coadministering flu vaccine with the Novavax COVID-19 vaccine.

With this study, CDC staff noted there were “no changes in antibody titers for influenza vaccine and no safety issues” when give in combination, although participants did have greater tenderness or pain at the injection site, and higher levels of fatigue and muscle pain.

It’s also crucial to note that the information on which they based this decision was gathered from a sub-study of just 217 participants who had fewer comorbid conditions and were younger than those in their vaccine’s main study.11

Also important to note is that the experimental Novavax COVID-19 vaccine is a subunit protein,12 which is different from the mRNA COVID-19 vaccines. This means that information from the Novavax study cannot be extrapolated to the experimental mRNA vaccines now being administered under an EUA.13

Unlike the messenger RNA vaccines, which use genetic material to trigger the body to make parts of the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein, the Novavax vaccine’s protein adjuvant contains the spike protein as a nanoparticle.14 The manufacturer proposes that it stimulates the immune system to recognize the virus and resist infection.

Additionally, none of the mRNA COVID-19 vaccines being distributed under an EUA has been tested for safety and efficacy when coadministered with influenza vaccine. In other words, the CDC made a recommendation that the two vaccines can be given simultaneously to children and adults without providing data conclusively demonstrating safety or efficacy.

This is pure evil. Pure totalitarianism straight up. And that leads me to the item that hit me in the gut this morning:

CNN medical analyst Dr. Jonathan Reiner said Thursday on "OutFront" that he thought it was "time to start mandating" people to get the coronavirus vaccine.

Burnett said, "You know, Dr. Reiner, when you look at this in the broader context, there's still a third of the eligible population in the United States that hasn't got a single dose. The Biden Administration says it's not their role to mandate get people vaccinated. Instead, they said this."

In a clip, President Joe Biden said, "Please get vaccinated now."

Burnett asked, "Given where things are going, is it time to move on from saying please to mandating?"

Reiner replied, "I do think it's time to start mandating vaccines. And I think that the private industry and private organizations will do that. At GW university, where I work, starting in fall, you can't be on campus unless you're fully vaccinated."

He added, "We're at the part of the pandemic now where the problem in this country is that 150 million Americans are not vaccinated. Half of that number is less than 18 years of age. But let's look at the adults. Seventy-five-million adults have chosen not to get vaccinated. That choice has consequences. Now, we can't force you to take a jab in the arm. But there are many jobs, perhaps, that can prevent you from working if you decide not to get vaccinated. So I think we need to be more proactive, and we will see industry take the lead in this."

https://www.breitbart.com/clip...-mandating-vaccines/



"Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible."

^^ yup, he wants to force you to get it…..for something you have a 99% chance of living thru.

Some people just need to be pushed out of the airlock.

We want employers to do our dirty work. We will create a two-tiered society.
If you are compliant and go along with whatever we want you to do... you will have employment opportunities. Otherwise, you will be ostracized. But, it's your choice.

Frighteningly, cancel culture has replaced the gulag. Instead of physically relocating dissidents, the modern totalitarian dictator need only ruin an individual financially. Corporate America has already to a degree replaced the jack-booted thugs while social media has assumed the role of work camp guards.

But private companies can do what they want because they're not the government. Right, conservatives? Never mind that they are today more powerful than most governments ever were and have the ability to trample rights probably even more so on an individual level than our own government ever could.

Furthermore, now we have these giant corporations working in conjunction with the government. Like posted above, these private companies are doing the left's dirty work.

Already happening at my place of employment. You wanna come to this outfit and fly our big jets? OK...get vaccinated and "submit yuh papuhs". IT IS REQUIRED AS A CONDITION OF YOUR EMPLOYMENT.

Don't need to express how I feel about that. I believe it's quite evident...
