Imagine being that dimwitted and lacking in confidence and self-respect to endure that indignity willingly.

But about an hour and a half into the flight, Fotieo started to feel a sore throat.

"The wheels started turning in my brain and I thought, 'OK, I'm going to just go take a test.' It was going to make me feel better," Fotieo told CNN. "Immediately, it came back positive."

When she got her results in the airplane bathroom, over the Atlantic Ocean, she said she started to panic.
"The first flight attendant I ran into was Rocky. I was hysterical, I was crying," Fotieo said.


My Goodness, lady. You sure have had a number done over on you. Try turning off the news for a little bit.

I read the article. Probably would have done the same thing myself.

She was traveling w her 70 year old father and brother.

She is an early childhood teacher in Chicago. She tests consistently.

The plane landed in Iceland and she tested positive w rapid and pcr tests.

Since her brother and father didn't have any symptoms, they were free to take their connecting flight to Switzerland

She was then shuttled to a Red Cross hotel where she began her 10 days of quarantine

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

I have family members and friends who have had Covid 19. Most had a bad 3 to 7 days. One was hospitalized. None died.

New studies show that the COVID vaccines damage your immune system, likely permanently
The vaccines are making it more likely you'll be infected with Omicron 90 days after you are fully vaccinated. To keep vaccine effectiveness high against omicron, vaccination every 30 days is needed.

Steve Kirsch
Dec 24

Worried about Omicron? Guess what? After 90 days, the vaccine they gave you is going to make you MORE likely to get infected from Omicron, not less. The longer you stay on the vaccine treadmill, the harder to get off in the future and the easier you’ll make it for the virus.

In short, we’ve been lied to about the vaccine. It is protecting you less and less over time. While you may get a benefit for earlier variants, the benefit for other variants (and likely other diseases) is going to be negative. In short, you are getting a short term benefit against Delta, but at the expense of a degradation of your overall immunity to everything else.

AOC Spotted in Miami Beach as NYC Reports Record Covid Cases

Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez was spotted dining in Miami Beach, Fla., on Thursday, according to a tip received by National Review, on the same day that her native New York City reported a record number of Covid-19 cases.

Photos obtained by National Review show Ocasio-Cortez seated outside Doraku Sushi and Izakaya in Miami Beach Thursday afternoon, raising a cocktail in one and checking her phone in another.

Ocasio-Cortez’s office did not respond to a request for comment.

The Florida outing comes as New York City reported a record number of new, confirmed cases of Covid-19 (almost 44,000). Ocasio-Cortez represents New York’s 14th congressional district, which covers parts of the Bronx and Queens.

Prioritization of Anti-SARS-CoV-2 Monoclonal Antibodies and Oral Antivirals for the Treatment of COVID-19 During Times of Resource Limitations

Introduction
In times of limited supplies of monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) and oral antivirals (OAVs), providers should prioritize patients eligible for treatment based on their level of risk for progressing to severe COVID-19. In addition, the most efficacious products should be prioritized for patients with the highest risk for hospitalization and death.

Notes
• We recommend using BMI ≥30 as a cutoff for weight-based risk factor
• Theriskofseverediseaseincreaseswiththenumberofcomorbidities,evenamongfullyvaccinatedindividuals2
Non-white race or Hispanic/Latino ethnicity should be considered a risk factor, as longstanding systemic health and social inequities have contributed to an increased risk of severe illness and death from COVID-19
• See CDC guidance for further information on specific medical conditions and associated risk
• Fully vaccinated is currently defined as having received two doses of an mRNA vaccine, or a single dose of the Johnson & Johnson vaccine

Furious Medical Director Says Biden Admin's Use of 'Faulty' CDC Data Will 'Definitely' Cost Lives

https://nationalfile.com/furio...finitely-cost-lives/

While the new omicron variant of COVID-19 is spreading in the United States, cases of the previous delta variant still remain.

One doctor in Maryland said President Joe Biden seemed unaware of this fact — and that lack of knowledge will prove deadly.

Dr. Ron Elfenbein, who serves as the medical director and CEO of FirstCall Medical Center in Gambrills, Maryland, told Fox News on Wednesday that his center had been using antibody treatments made by Regeneron and Eli Lilly to treat COVID-19. These treatments were effective against the delta variant.

However, the Biden administration halted their distribution on Dec. 23, saying they were not effective against the omicron variant.

On Dec. 20, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said the omicron variant made up 73.2 percent of all new cases in the United States. As such, the Biden administration apparently felt the antibody treatments would no longer be effective.

Yet this week, the CDC revised its breakdown.

For the week ending on Dec. 18, it said, the omicron variant comprised just an estimated 22.5 percent of new cases. The delta variant made up 77 percent of new cases that week, while 0.5 percent of cases were other variants.

In other words, the Biden administration halted effective treatments for the delta strain of COVID-19 while that strain was still very prominent in the United States.

As a result of the federal government’s misstep, Elfenbein said, he had to cancel monoclonal antibody infusions for about 250 people last week. In many cases, he said, the treatment was potentially life-saving.

“I am as angry as I possibly can be about this,” the doctor told Fox News.

“The fact that these people are so adamant that they’re right when they’re using faulty data and they’re using faulty logic and frankly statistical modeling that has never been correct, ever, throughout this entire pandemic, to look at this, is just beyond the pale.”

In Elfenbein’s opinion, the Biden administration’s failure will have dire consequences.

“People are definitely going to die because of this or need hospitalization because [health officials] misread the statistics,” he said.

According to a Dec. 23 letter obtained by Fox News, the Maryland Department of Health told doctors in the state that “sites … have been directed to stop administering these therapeutics.”

The department also said in the letter that the omicron variant was “now the most dominant variant in the state.”

“I don’t know how many people throughout the country are dead, dying, in the hospital, or about to be hospitalized because of the mistakes that they just made,” Elfenbein said.

“It’s just the height of bureaucratic arrogance, and it’s just, it’s horrible,” he said.

Elfenbein said friends would ask him to administer the treatments for their sick relatives, but he had to refuse for fear of losing his medical license.

The U.S. Department of Health and Human Service’s Office of the Assistant Secretary for Preparedness and Response, which originally halted the treatment, revised its decision on Wednesday, Fox News reported.

It said it will still pause allocation of the antibody treatments to states with more than 80 percent prevalence of omicron, but it will begin to reallocate the treatments for states below 80 percent.
