The rapid tests are known to be unreliable, though apparently with a higher false negative rate than false positive. The PCR test is allegedly quite accurate.

In my case the tests were more to confirm what I already suspected, due to symptoms.

Pfizer delivers good news (NOT!).

Yes, that FOURTH booster with their vaccine should get bad old Omicron.

At some point (way past that for the sane among us) even the sheep have to realize that they're being played.

Good luck to all of us now that .gov and .med rule our lives.

Her Pfizer- I’m calling bullshit on that one. Even their top salesman Fauci says the nearly harmless omicrud may evade protection from the vaccine.

Unless you get (another) booster, naturally.

Praise God in the highest as good news for this family in their fight to have ivermectin used to treat their loved one in the hospital. God Bless !!! Smile

https://www.dailywire.com/news...g-patient-ivermectin


Chris Davies and his father Donald have been fighting for their mother and wife Kathy Davies’ right to try the drug Ivermectin as a COVID-19 treatment at Fauquier Health hospital in Warrenton, Virginia, for the past few weeks. But the hospital — where Chris happens to work as a radiologic technologist — had put his mother through a series of legal hoops seemingly designed to block the treatment from being given to her.

On Monday, December 13, Virginia’s 20th Judicial Court found Fauquier Health in contempt of court after refusing to comply with previous orders and ruled that by 9:00 p.m. Eastern time tonight, Kathy Davies must be given the dose of Ivermectin as prescribed by a doctor retained by the Davies family. Additionally — if the hospital did not comply — the state had the right to fine the hospital $10,000 per day. That order would have been applied retroactively from December 9 onwards. The court also ordered that the Davies family be given police escort if necessary to administer the drug to their mother.

But, the court also said that the hospital had an opportunity to purge the contempt charge by complying with the order. The hospital is reportedly now opting to comply with that order after a week of arguing why they could not allow the drug to be given to Kathy Davies as the family requested.

The story offers hope for legal respite for many families who have found themselves in similar situations while trying to battle a medical establishment arguably opposed to any treatment not supported by the FDA to fight COVID-19.

The Davies’ saga started in October when Chris Davies’ mother was admitted to the hospital with COVID-19. She was placed on a ventilator in the intensive care unit (ICU) on November 3. Donald was to serve as her medical proxy — and after consultation with Chris and his siblings — wanted doctors to give Kathy Ivermectin in hopes of finding success against COVID-19.

The doctors and hospital refused that request and were adamant they would not administer the drug despite the family’s wishes. On December 3, the Davies family notified Fauquier Health that they were hiring attorneys on Kathy’s behalf and filing a lawsuit.

“Pray we get a compassionate judge and that litigation goes smoothly,” Chris emailed friends supporting his mother on December 5. “We just want the right to try Ivermectin!”

“Let us pray we can get it to her and it will help her out of this long-suffering!!” he added. “Thanks all and God Bless!!!”

On Monday, December 6, according to a court document obtained by The Daily Wire, the court had ruled that Kathy had the right under Virginia law to try Ivermectin or any other order and prescription provided by Dr. Martha Maturi — the doctor retained by the Davies family who had prescribed Ivermectin — regardless of her employment with the hospital.

But, when Chris and a registered nurse went to administer the drug on the night of December 7 on the orders of Maturi, “hospital administration barred [him and the nurse] from entering the ICU with the Ivermectin.”

According to Chris, the hospital’s “COO Kevin Sales and CNO Christine Hart Kress stopped [them] with [the] original court order.”

While Chris had the Ivermectin in hand, he says that Kress “threatened to report the nurse to the medical board to revoke her license” because “she was not an employee of the hospital.”

The hospital told Chris they had filed for another emergency hearing to be held on December 8.

On December 9, Judge James P. Fisher of the 20th Judicial Court of Virginia ruled — according to another document obtained by The Daily Wire — that Maturi had the right to give Chris’s mom Ivermectin under Virginia law, stating that “this court finds it unnecessary to descend into an analysis of the merits of Ivermectin as a treatment protocol” and that the hospital must make a “reasonable effort” to transfer care to Maturi.

The order continued, noting that the hospital’s arguments against admitting Maturi into the hospital were not sufficient.

Davies attorney Ralph Lorigo argued that “all reasonable effort” regarding Ivermectin meant three things: 1. Prescription of medicine, 2. Administration of medicine, and 3. Taking any calls relating to Ivermectin and the patient.

Hospital attorneys reportedly agreed to grant Maturi admitting privileges under those conditions.

But on Friday, Maturi spent hours answering questions about malpractice insurance, references, and other forms that the hospital said were necessary before allowing to see the patient. The hospital waited until 3:30 pm on Friday, December 10, to let Davies’ attorneys know that they were not going to admit Maturi into the hospital despite the court order.

Davies attorneys discussed the matter with the hospital attorneys on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday as to why Maturi could not receive privileges. The hospital said that if Maturi were to administer Ivermectin, she would have to take complete control over the patient. They essentially said that no doctor or nurse employed by the hospital would assist in taking care of the patient.

This made no sense to Davies’ attorneys or family for a variety of reasons, chief among them that one doctor is never in charge of the patient, but rather a team of doctors, specialists, and nurses care for the patient.

This was yet another three days that Chris’s mother would not receive the drug. Since the hospital had denied the Davies family the right to give Ivermectin to Kathy on Friday afternoon, an emergency hearing would have to wait until Monday morning.

In response, Davies’s attorneys argued in court on Monday that the hospital had been unreasonable in their efforts to care for the patient, Kathy Davies, and should be held in contempt of court.

Judge Fisher agreed and ruled on Monday that the hospital could appeal the order, comply, or face the 10k per day fines.

Lorigo said that after several hours of trying to ask for “clarification” on the matter, Fauquier Health finally complied with the ruling. Hospital administrators even let Chris and his father know that they found a registered nurse who could assist Dr. Maturi deliver the Ivermectin.

As of press time, Chris and Maturi were traveling to Fauquier Health with Ivermectin in hand to finally deliver it to his mother in hopes of helping her defeat COVID-19.

Ironic that many of the same (type) of people in the medical field, are so adamant and supportive of the right to die movement. Yet do such things as this facility has, to prevent people from trying what they desire, in the treatment of one's illness.

Insanity.

Joe Biden on Monday said he will be visiting tornado-ravaged Kentucky on Wednesday.

Over 100 are feared dead in Kentucky after at least 18 tornadoes tore through the heartland late Friday night and early Saturday morning.

Link with video of Joe, talking about people in Kentucky in need of booster shots.

Because those looking for their loved ones are obviously wondering where to get a booster shot since their town was destroyed and they have lost everything.

New Zealand Approves Orgies Of Up To 25 People As Part Of New COVID Rules

https://www.zerohedge.com/covi...part-new-covid-rules

New Zealand Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern announced the easing of COVID-19 restrictions on national television, based on a 'traffic light system.' She said orgies for up to 25 people are permitted.

Ardern spoke with Seven Sharp hosts Hilary Barry and Jeremy Wells about New Zealand's reopening timeline, known as the traffic light system. For some context, the traffic light system categorizes freedoms available to vaccinated Kiwis based on location and whether they live in a red, orange, or green zone.

The traffic light system aims to end lockdowns in New Zealand and enforce vaccine passports.

For instance, in Auckland, a major port city in the north of the country's North Island, lined with superyachts, the metro area is currently classified as a "red" district -- meaning Kiwis can engage in everyday essential activities.

Ardern explained on national television, "I can confirm that Tinder liaisons have reopened," adding, "it's not strictly embedded in the traffic light system but um, it is a given, up to 25 actually, in a red area."

So, to clarify, even in a red zone where COVID measures are very restricting (as outlined below), orgies of up to 25 people appear to be legal.



New Zealand is currently between red and orange. On Wednesday, Auckland will allow citizens to travel for non-essential reasons. The country has some of the strictest measures (read: here) on personal freedoms during the pandemic.

At least there is some good news before Christmas as the government has approved orgies.

NFL Had 37 Positive Covid-19 Tests Today and Only ONE Was “Unvaccinated”

It wasn’t a good day for the National Football League’s draconian Covid-19 policies. They should be the shining example of how to handle the coronavirus with over 94% of their players and nearly 100% of their coaches and staff “fully vaccinated.” But being the shining example would require the vaccines to actually work at stopping Covid-19, which they do not. As a result, the league has become the perfect example of the opposite conclusion: Medical tyranny within private industry is a path to failure.

On Monday, the league recorded their highest number of Covid-19 positive tests ever with 37. Of those, only Chicago Bears’ defensive end Mario Edwards was “unvaccinated.” The other 36 should have been protected by being fully-vaccinated in a league with such high vaccination rates, but instead they found themselves grasping for answers about why there are so many of the so-called “rare” breakthrough cases popping up across the league.

So much attention is given to “unvaccinated” players like Green Bay Packers’ quarterback Aaron Rodgers getting Covid, but nobody in corporate media is asking the obvious question: “Why are so many ‘vaccinated’ players getting hit with the coronavirus if the jabs actually work?”

https://noqreport.com/2021/12/...ne-was-unvaccinated/

Don’t worry! The NFL is on it! They quickly devised a shrewd, well-considered plan. And I bet you know what it is. MORE JABS! More.

In a memo provided to Reuters, the NFL ordered all its fully-injected staff to get a booster shot by December 27. Genius! You know the saying. “If at first you don’t succeed…”

NFL staff are getting spike proteins in their stockings.

Omicron Unleashes New Wave of Hysteria, With Rule by Decree in Force
Michael Walsh

The militarization of the health-care system is just the latest example of what has become the nationalization of medicine. Most doctors must now follow political “guidelines” in dealing with patients and, increasingly, unvaccinated patients are being refused service—a violation of physicians’ professional oaths. The long struggle over socialized medicine is now essentially over. Going forward, expect the slogan “My body, my choice” and the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act to be relegated to the ash heap of history—all in the same of “public safety.”

This has always been the goal, they have always been creating a pathway to socialized USA medicine and the transfer of trillions of dollars from the private sector to government hands.

UK Government Refuses To Reveal Details About 'First Omicron Death'

https://www.zerohedge.com/poli...-first-omicron-death

The UK government has refused to divulge any details about the first ever death of someone infected with the Omicron variant, leading one professor to assert that the person likely died with Omicron and not from it.

Health Secretary Sajid Javid revealed news of the death yesterday, which is apparently the first of its kind in the world, prompting another round of media-driven fearmongering about the Omicron variant.

However, when asked to provide vital information about the age, medical condition and vaccination status of the victim, the government has refused to do so, citing patient confidentiality.

The government has refused to specify whether Omicron was the primary cause of death or whether someone already suffering with multiple co-morbidities merely died with Omicron.

This prompted Professor of Medicine and Consultant Oncologist Karol Sikora to charge that this was causing “unnecessary alarm.”

“Were they in hospital for Covid or were they there because they had been run over by a bus?,” he asked.

“Have they had booster? Are they elderly?,” he added, noting that the average age of someone who dies from COVID is 82.5.

“There are all sorts of nuances to this thing, and we’re not being given proper information. No details have been released, I suspect it’s just some old boy that’s tested positive, he may have died in his sleep or with a heart attack, who knows?”

“I suspect that it’s a death, which is unfortunate, but is due to something else, and it just happens to be Covid positive that’s why they’re not making a big noise about them being vaccinated or not,” concluded Sikora.

As the Daily Mail reports, key details about the Omicron death are notable by their absence.

“(Boris) Johnson did not reveal the age of the person who died, or if they had underlying health conditions, which made them vulnerable, or whether Omicron was the leading cause of their death or a secondary factor.”

However, Johnson did subsequently seize on the death to try to dismiss reports from South Africa that the variant is “mild” and could even be a good thing if it fully displaces delta.

It was also revealed that “most” of the patients in UK hospitals with Omicron are double vaccinated.

The presence of ACE2 receptors on the ocular surface, which acts as a binding site for SARS-CoV-2, makes the eyes a potential target for SARS-CoV-2. Thus, its ability to cause conjunctivitis must be considered.4,9,10 The SARS-CoV-2 RNA has been detected in conjunctival secretions and tears in patients with COVID-19.10–13 A study carried out by Güemes-Villahoz showed that the presence of SARS-CoV-2 RNA in ocular secretions supports the suggestion that the eye is a possible route of infection.8 SARS-CoV-2 is assumed to be transmitted by tears from the conjunctival sac to the respiratory tract through the nasolacrimal ducts. The ability of the virus to bind to the ocular surface and reach the respiratory tract from the eye should prompt healthcare providers to wear eye safety goggles or face shield when they are in close contact with confirmed or suspected cases of COVID-19.14

Not when you loathe the military and intend to damage it severely. Everything this administration and the Barry the Wonder Putz administration have done is geared to that goal. As China, Russia and Iran ascend, our 'leaders' do everything in their power to degrade and weaken this country. Covid is just another means to that end. Treason anyone?
