VAXXING THE SHEEPLE: COVID-19 is the largest Asch Conformity Experiment ever conducted Sunday, May 08, 2022 by: S.D. Wells

(Natural News) Using one of psychology’s oldest research tools, the Asch Conformity Experiment, the facilitators of the entire COVID pandemic convinced nearly 5 billion people to go against what they know as real and valid, and make “safety” choices based on what they thought the “masses” were also making. Billions of human beings across planet earth, from every continent and every country, conformed to what they believed most of the others were doing. As very social creatures, the majority of humans want to be “accepted,” “liked,” and not “buck the system.” It’s called conformity and the fear of non-conformity, and this grand experiment could be costing every last one of them their health, livelihood, human rights, medical freedoms, and every last penny they have.

Sheeple syndrome: Facing total disbelief about their choices, billions still went along just to “fit in” with the masses

Would you declare the color purple is orange if everyone around you did so first, even though you were looking right at it and knew it was purple? What if 10 other people all said orange first? What if 100, or 1,000, or 1 million people said it was orange, what would you say, while your choice was being recorded for everyone to know? Then, what if you said purple, just to conform, but found out later that everyone who said orange were actors, told to say orange, plus other fake answers from fake people? Would you still go “against the grain” the next time you knew the truth, but your answer/choice was going to be different than that of the “masses?”

The Solomon Asch Conformity Experiment has been conducted on the world’s stage. A “virus” that was no more deadly than the seasonal flu, was purported to be the next Black Plague, and the masses were made to believe that everyone was getting vaccinated and wearing masks to “save themselves” from sure death. That’s what vaccine passports were really about, to show everyone how “dumb” and “reckless” they were if they did not get one. Get it? The fear of non-conformity drove the sheeple to get deadly blood-clotting vaccines and wear oxygen-depriving masks all day long.

A worldwide narrative about COVID-19 convinced billions of people to go completely against their own better judgment and “conform”

Most people know that vaccines take years to develop in laboratories and must go through extensive clinical trials before they are cast in the public domain for mass injection. The COVID vaccines were rushed to market and even labeled “for emergency authorization” and “emergency use” only. In other words, billions of people KNEW they were taking part in a dangerous experiment, but chose to do so because the mass media made them THINK everyone else was conforming, before they even did.

Most humans, while wearing a mask, would admit they cannot breathe properly, and would remove it after a short period of time, using common sense to understand it would affect their health and well-being if they kept wearing it, all day, everywhere they went. The narrative was the opposite though and convinced them that it was “safe and effective” to cut off 20 percent of your oxygen supply all day, to save yourself from COVID-19, another concocted conspiracy theory never proven to be real (the pandemic “virus” still has yet to be isolated in a lab). That’s why PCR tests are all fake. They’re just another tool of the Asch Conformity Experiment.

COVID-19 was never proven deadly to healthy humans, or teenagers, or children, or babies. Yet the narrative has convinced young healthy people of all ages to get jabbed with experimental gene manipulating “technology,” including parents getting their children vaccinated, over and over, with this dangerous and deadly “injection” experiment, when they’re not even really “vaccines” at all. Conformity is the mass-murdering fulcrum of the whole experiment. So many people are afraid of not doing what the “masses” seem to be doing, whether or not that is fact or fiction, doesn’t even matter.

Watch and learn how and why nearly 5 billion people worldwide are willing to take part in a grand experiment where they can get sick and die soon just for making WRONG choices they believe most other people are making.

The Solomon Asch Conformity Experiment

If you don’t believe this is going on in the FAKE NEWS right now about COVID-19, then you are gravely mistaken. Watch the news lie to the world using the same fake narrative.

Meet the BRANCH COVIDIANS: An apocalyptic medical-extremist group of tyrants whose avid followers participate in genocide by vaccination Saturday, May 07, 2022 by: S.D. Wells

(Natural News) Science is no longer evidence-based when it comes to medicine in America, it’s a new religion that’s all faith-based. Do you “believe” in vaccines? Do you “believe” that wearing face masks all day and night works to prevent the spread of COVID? If not, you will be persecuted for not believing in the new religion of faith-based science. If you buck the system, your “conspiracy theories” will land you strung up on a cross (bankrupted and force-injected with prions), or burnt at the stake like a witch (put on deadly Remdesivir and a choke-you-to-death ventilator at the hospital).

Meet the Branch Covidians, an apocalyptic medical-extremist group of scientists, doctors, patients, and propagandists who have one end goal in mind, coerce the rest of the world to “practice” their religion, or die.

The Branch Covidian Cult includes everyone who makes vaccines, funds them, pushes them, and takes them. It’s a religious new world order, and their fake science and ministry of truth propaganda machine has brainwashed over 4 billion worshippers, and in just the first two years of “membership.” It’s a doomsday war happening for control of your health and psyche, and if you don’t resist or fight back, you automatically lose.

The Branch Davidians apocalyptic religious movement (cult) was founded in the 1950s,  the same time as the fake-science-religion of vaccines

Remember the “Seventh-Day Adventists?” The Feds burned 76 of the 85 of their “offshoots” alive, including some children (the ones ATF agents couldn’t coax out), for not coming out of their compound and surrendering. It happened in Waco, Texas, where the “Mount Carmel Center” was the home of the Branch Davidians. The leader? David Koresh – the self-proclaimed “Final Prophet” (think Fauci here).

Koresh taught his followers about the Seven Seals and that the end of the world was “imminent.” This is much like the CDC right now claiming that if we don’t all get experimental vaccines, the whole world will DIE from COVID-19 (which has a .01 percentage kill rate and mainly among the immune compromised). Vaccines, ever since the Polio vaccine, have caused more harm than help, that is, if you REALLY look at the evidence-based science behind them.

In other words, the “science” of vaccines is a religion that you must believe in, without any evidence-based proof of efficacy. It’s faith-based medicine and the “end of the world” is hinged on everyone getting flu shots that cause blood clots and myocarditis.

The Branch Covidian Cult has over 4.6 billion members worldwide and growing

Most Branch Covidian Cult members (vaccine pushers and takers) wholly believe that all “anti-vaxxers” are crazed lunatics (heretics) who don’t value human life and are walking around KILLING people because they “do NOT believe in” getting toxic gene therapy injections (“vaccines”) or wearing a useless, bacteria-laden mask 24/7/365. The mask has become a cult member signature cloth, and all members are instructed to give dirty looks to the mask-less and declare them guilty of blasphemy and sacrilegious acts (report them to DHS) for opposing the religious belief that masks help save the world from the Black Plague of 2022 (the Fauci Flu).

The Branch Covidian Cult is chock full of vaccine fanatics who are suffering from mercury poisoning, also called Mad Hatter Syndrome, from all the “thimerosal” in flu shots over the years, and now from Spike Protein Syndrome from the nanoparticle, clot shot injections. Are the booster shots the poisonous “magic kool-aid” of the next Jonestown Massacre? It’s genocide by vaccination, and the leading tyrants have all the “church” attendees worshipping at the inoculation altar.

How many more members will the Branch Covidians recruit for the “final siege” before the whole herd goes “up in flames?” The end of the world looks like it’s really coming soon, but it’s really just coming for the Branch Covidians, little do they know. Bookmark Vaccines.news to your favorite independent websites for updates on experimental COVID “vaccines” that cause blood clots and other horrific side effects.

“Situation Update” is now Citizens’ Log – A time capsule message from the present to the future survivors of the war Monday, May 09, 2022 by: Mike Adams

(Natural News) The Situation Update podcast, which has produced 5-6 episodes per week since November 4th, 2020 (the day after the election was stolen) is now Citizens’ Log, “A time capsule message from the present to the future survivors of the war.”

Each episode will continue to cover each day’s observations about the total collapse of Western civilization that is being engineered — and the globalist war against the human race — but now it will be presented in the context of history for those survivors who may be listening in the future. Perhaps they will be curious how human civilization committed suicide in the name of “progress.”

Each episode will be burned to audio CD (optical format, which is very resistant to physical damage) and buried in a time capsule container at a location that will be marked in a conspicuous manner that’s designed to survive global thermonuclear war. The hope is that future survivors will find the stash of audio CDs and still have the basic technology listen to them. (Audio CDs don’t use compression CODECs and can be played with rudimentary electronics, compared to DVDs or other formats.)

How the West is forcing Putin into a nuclear first strike

It is becoming obvious to many people now that the US and NATO are deliberately pushing Russia into global thermonuclear war. In classic game theory, you might imagine two scorpions in a jar, each capable of killing the other, but not before the other one can strike back, effectively killing them both. I prefer to use the analogy of two cowboys in a saloon, each with a loaded gun pointed to the head of the other. Once the USA / NATO cowboy declares that their goal is the complete destruction of Russia and that there is no common ground and no restoration of geopolitical recognition of Russia’s right to exist, it is in the interests of Russia to shoot first (and hope it can dodge the return fire).

This is the corner into which Russia is being shoved right now. We are so close to global thermonuclear war — or an EMP weapon detonation over Europe or North America — that a first strike from Russia could come any day, in mere minutes. (About 200 seconds from launch to detonation over European cities like Paris, Berlin and London.)

Yet the extreme arrogance of the illegitimate, criminal occupying enemy force in Washington D.C. — the “Biden regime” — is truly incredible. The USA and NATO act as if they are invulnerable to nuclear retaliation. They pretend that their own nations are working well, with fully-functioning supply lines and a ready workforce to produce more weapons along with a stable domestic currency to fund a war effort. Yet none of these assumptions are true. The United States of America is on the verge of collapse all by itself, with a near-collapsed culture of people who refuse to work, a collapsing supply chain and a collapsing dollar currency. To top it off, the country is being (presumably) run by a mentally incompetent dementia patient who was thrust into power through a criminally rigged (stolen) election in 2020.

Democracy is dead in America, and free speech has been all but outlawed. Money is becoming worthless, and both food inflation and fuel prices are skyrocketing by the day. America stands on the verge of domestic civil war, yet the insane, arrogant American leaders think they can bludgeon Russia into compliance by talking tough and threatening economic sanctions? It reminds me a lot of Joe Biden’s contrived story about how he stood down a gangster named Corn Pop, invoking his usual (and hilarious) tough guy act that nobody believes. A similar swagger in U.S. State Dept. officials is also laughable. The US military has no real capability of defeating Russia in actual combat, especially given the fact that America’s F-35 fighters barely function even in peacetime.

The United States of America is now little more than a hollowed out husk of its former self. All it took was a few decades of treasonous Clintons, Bushes and Barack Obama to pull it off.

Russia is grinding away Zelensky’s doomed troops

Meanwhile, Zelensky has ordered his Ukrainian troops to “hold the line” at any cost. The cost will be high, of course, since that order makes them sitting ducks for Russia’s highly effective artillery. By some accounts, Russian artillery is out-gunning Ukrainian artillery by a factor of 100 to 1. From DigitalJournal.com:

On the ground, there are roughly 40,000 to 50,000 Ukrainian soldiers in the Donbas, analysts say. Moscow has not said anything about its forces in the area.

“It’s too late for us,” said one Ukrainian soldier, who was struggling to repair a broken-down tank he said was used in the Soviet-Afghan war (1979-1989).

Although they are holding their ground on the battlefield, many of Ukraine’s infantry soldiers admit to feeling overwhelmed.

“Viking”, a 27-year-old staff sergeant who fought in Kreminna said his comrades are exhausted and waiting for the order to pull back.

“If it was a war between infantry forces, we would have a chance. But in this area, it’s first and foremost an artillery war and we don’t have enough artillery,” he says.

“For every 300 shells they fire, we fire three.”

The order to “hold the line” is suicide when the line is being heavily barraged by Russian artillery, it turns out.

Russia has perfected its method to kill Ukrainian soldiers: 1) Use drones to identify fixed enemy positions, 2) Hit them with nonstop artillery to produce 75% (or so) casualties. 3) Send in the tanks for the cleanup. If that doesn’t work, rinse and repeat.

From CSmonitor.com, a similar story emerges: (despite the lying left-wing media’s attempts to somehow keep claiming “Ukraine is winning!)

“Their artillery never, never stops,” says the deputy commander of Ukraine’s Donbas Battalion, a major who only gave the nickname Kot (Cat). He spoke in Sloviansk with a balaclava covering his face, as an air raid siren wailed across the city.

“They are sending recon units, then shell with artillery, and then send tanks,” he says. “If those tanks are destroyed, they send more tanks.”

“We really have a lack of heavy artillery,” says Ukrainian Sgt. Viktor Davydov, still wired and speaking quickly of Ukraine’s needs, after returning to the town of Druzhkivka from the front, where he says Russian artillery strikes continue “24/7.”

“When Russia sends incoming 200 shells, we send back 10 shells,” says Sergeant Davydov, who wears sunglasses, a pistol on his thigh, and a skull shoulder patch in the blue and yellow colors of the Ukrainian flag.

“I tell them that all they have to do is hold our line, and not retreat,” says Sergeant Davydov. The cost can be high. The sergeant recalls 10 recruits in late April being sent to him one night at 11 p.m. By 6 a.m. two were dead and three wounded by Russian artillery.

Imagine that. A 50% casualty rate in six hours. That’s the cost of Zelensky telling his soldiers to “hold the line” in the face of Russian artillery.

No doubt, NATO troops will be chewed up in precisely the same manner, as NATO is also too stupid and arrogant to engage in anything resembling sustainable tactics on the battlefield.

What happens when Ukraine runs out of troops? Nothing good…

Right now, Russia is focused on eliminating Ukrainian troops rather than actually gaining territory (except in the south, where Russia is gunning for Odessa). Because Russia knows that once Ukraine runs out of troops to keep trying to use NATO weapons, NATO will finally have to send in its own pathetic snowflake troops.

NATO troops are snowflakes. They’re weak and soft, much like the US military leadership which is more concerned with supporting transgenderism surgeries for troops rather than training men how to fight like men.

NATO is no match for Russia’s military might. It’s not even close. That’s not to even mention the fact that Russia could fire a single EMP weapon and plunge all of Western Europe into the Dark Ages. On top of that, Russia has underwater nuclear drones already positioned off the coasts of the UK and USA, ready to receive satellite commands for detonation. This would unleash a radioactive tidal wave and utterly obliterate coastal regions, making them uninhabitable for three centuries. Consider what occupies the US East Coast: Washington D.C., Norfolk naval bases, New York City (and Wall Street), Boston and so on. Imagine the shock to America if these cities were all drenched in radioactive sea water, all at the same time.

Even without such a maneuver, Western Europe is destroying itself through economic suicide — all stemming from the ludicrous and idiotic “climate change” hoax — so all Putin has to do now is wait for the coming winter and watch Germany, France, Poland and the UK freeze to death (or starve, or close down their industrial base, or perhaps all three). The US, similarly, is printing its way to financial oblivion while the nation’s culture plunges into abject lunacy and incomprehensible behavior on the part of the political Left. Gone are the days of rational debate, evidence-based accusations and functional logic. It’s all been replaced with mindless screaming, violence and hate against everything that is good.

The radical Left have become incomprehensible, intolerable lunatics who are 100% incompatible with sustainable civilization.

Biden Cynically Uses Ukraine to Cover Food Sabotage

It’s beginning to look like some bad actors are deliberately taking steps to guarantee a coming global food crisis. Every measure that the Biden Administration strategists have been making to “control energy inflation” is damaging the supply or inflating the price of natural gas, oil and coal to the global economy. This is having a huge impact on fertilizer prices and food production. That began well before Ukraine. Now reports are circulating that Biden’s people have intervened to block the freight rail shipping of fertilizer at the most critical time for spring planting. By this autumn the effects will be explosive.

With the crucial time for USA spring planting at its critical phase, CF Industries of Deerfield, Illinois, the largest US supplier of nitrogen fertilizers as well as a vital diesel engine additive, issued a press release stating that, “On Friday, April 8, 2022, Union Pacific informed CF Industries without advance notice that it was mandating certain shippers to reduce the volume of private cars on its railroad effective immediately.” Union Pacific is one of only four major rail companies that together carry some 80% of all US agriculture rail freight. The CF company CEO, Tony Will stated, “The timing of this action by Union Pacific could not come at a worse time for farmers. Not only will fertilizer be delayed by these shipping restrictions, but additional fertilizer needed to complete spring applications may be unable to reach farmers at all. By placing this arbitrary restriction on just a handful of shippers, Union Pacific is jeopardizing farmers’ harvests and increasing the cost of food for consumers.” CF has made urgent appeals to the Biden Administration for remedy, so far with no positive action.

Direct sabotage

CF Industries noted that they were one of only thirty companies subject to the severe measure, which is indefinite. They ship via Union Pacific rail lines primarily from its Donaldsonville Complex in Louisiana and its Port Neal Complex in Iowa, to serve key farm states including Iowa, Illinois, Kansas, Nebraska, Texas and California. The ban will affect nitrogen fertilizers such as urea and urea ammonium nitrate (UAN), as well as diesel exhaust fluid, DEF (called AdBlue in Europe). DEF is an emissions control product required for diesel trucks today. Without it engines cannot run. It is made from urea. CF Industries is the largest producer of urea, UAN and DEF in North America, and its Donaldsonville Complex is the largest single production facility for the products in North America.

At the same time, the Biden gang has announced a fake remedy for record high gasoline pump prices. Washington announced the EPA will allow a 50% increase in corn-based biodiesel and ethanol fuel mix for the summer. On April 12 the Secretary of Agriculture announced a “bold” initiative by the US Administration to increase the use of domestically-grown corn-ethanol biofuels. Secretary Tom Vilsack claimed the measure would “reduce energy prices and tackle rising consumer prices caused by Putin’s Price Hike (sic) by tapping into a strong and bright future for the biofuel industry, in cars and trucks and the rail, marine, and aviation sectors and supporting use of €15 fuel this summer.”

Only the capitalized “Putin Price Hike” is not a result of Russian actions, but of Washington Green Energy decisions to phase out oil and gas. The energy price inflation is also about to go vastly higher in coming months owing to US and EU economic sanctions on export of Russian oil and likely gas. However the central point is that every acre of US farmland dedicated to growing corn for biofuels removes that food production from the food chain, to burn it as fuel. Since passage of the 2007 US Renewable Fuel Standards Act, which mandated annually rising targets for production of corn for ethanol fuel blends, biofuels have captured a huge part of total corn acreage, more than 40% in 2015. That shift, mandated by law, to burning corn as fuel had added a major price inflation for food well before the covid inflation crisis began. The USA is by far world’s largest corn producer and exporter. Now to mandate a significant increase in corn ethanol for fuel at a time of astronomical fertilizer prices, and fertilizer rail shipping are being blocked reportedly by White House orders, will send corn prices through the roof. Washington knows this very well. It is deliberate.

No wonder the price of US corn reached a 10-year high in mid-April, as exports from Russia and Ukraine, major sources, are now blocked by sanction and war. Aside from the energy-inefficient use of US corn for biodiesel supply, the latest Biden ethanol initiative will add to the growing food crisis while doing nothing to lower US gasoline prices. A major use for US feed corn is as animal feed for cattle, pigs and poultry as well as for human diets. This cynical biofuel order is not about US “energy independence.” Biden ended that in his first days in office by a series of bans on oil and gas drilling and pipelines as part of his Zero Carbon agenda.

In what is clearly becoming a US Administration war on food, the situation is being dramatically aggravated by USDA demands for chicken farmers to kill off millions of chickens in now 27 states, allegedly for signs of Bird Flu infection. The H5N1 Bird Flu “virus” was exposed in 2015 as a complete hoax. The tests used by the US government inspectors to determine bird flu now are the same unreliable PCR tests used for COVID in humans. The test is worthless for that. US Government officials estimate that since first cases were “tested” positive in February, at least 23 million chickens and turkeys have been culled to allegedly contain the spread of a disease whose cause could be the incredibly unsanitary cage confinement of mass industrial chicken CAFOs. The upshot is sharp rises in prices of egg by some 300% since November and severe loss of chicken protein sources for American consumers at a time when overall cost of living inflation is at a 40-year high.

To make matters worse, California and Oregon are again declaring water emergency amid a multi-year drought and are sharply reducing irrigation water to farmers in California, who produce the major share of US fresh vegetables and fruits. That drought has since spread to cover most agriculture land west of the Mississippi River, meaning much of US farmland.

US food security is under threat as never before since the 1930s Dust Bowl, and the Biden Administration “Green Agenda” is doing everything to make the impact worse for its citizens.

In recent comments US President Biden remarked without elaborating that the US food shortages are “going to be real.” His administration also is deaf to pleas of farmer organizations to allow cultivation of some 4 million acres of farmland ordered left out of cultivation for “environmental reasons. However this is not the only part of the world where crisis in food is developing.

Global Disaster

These deliberate Washington actions are taking place at a time a global series of food disasters create the worst food supply situation in decades, perhaps since the World War II end.

In the EU, which is significantly dependent on Russia, Belarus and Ukraine for feed grains, fertilizers and energy, sanctions are making the covid-induced food shortages dramatically worse. The EU uses its foolish Green Agenda as an excuse to forbid the Italian government from ignoring EU rules limiting state aid to farmers. In Germany, the new Green Party Agriculture Minister Cem Özdemir, who wants to phase out traditional agriculture allegedly for its “greenhouse gas” emissions, has given farmers who want to grow more food a cold response. The EU faces many of the same disastrous threats to food security as the USA and even more dependence on Russian energy which is about to be suicidally sanctioned by the EU.

The major food producing countries in South America, especially Argentina and Paraguay, are in the midst of a severe drought attributed to a periodic La Niña Pacific anomaly that has crippled crops there. Sanctions on Belarus and Russia fertilizers are threatening Brazil crops, aggravated with bottlenecks in ocean transport.

China just announced that owing to severe rains in 2021, this year’s winter wheat crop could be the worst in its history. The CCP also has instituted severe measures to get farmers to expand cultivation to non-farm lands with little reported effect. According to a report by China watcher Erik Mertz, “In China’s Jilin, Heilongjiang, and Liaoning provinces, officials have reported one in three farmers lack sufficient seed and fertilizer supplies to begin planting for the optimum spring window… According to sources within these areas, they are stuck waiting on seed and fertilizer which have been imported to China from overseas – and which are stuck in the cargo ships sitting off the coast of Shanghai.” Shanghai, the world’s largest container port, has been under a bizarre “Zero Covid” total quarantine for more than four weeks with no end in sight. In a desperate bid by the CCP “ordering” increased food production, local CP officials throughout China have begun transforming basketball courts and even roads into cropland. The food situation in China is forcing the country to import far more at a time of global shortages, driving world grain and food prices even higher.

Africa is also severely impacted by the US-imposed sanctions and war ending food and fertilizer exports from Russia and Ukraine. Thirty five African countries get food from Russia and Ukraine. Twenty two African countries import fertilizer from there. Alternatives are seriously lacking as prices soar and supply collapses. Famine is predicted.

David M. Beasley, executive director of the UN World Food Program, declared recently on the global food outlook, “There is no precedent even close to this since World War II.”

Notably, it was the Biden Treasury Department that drew up a list of the most comprehensive economic sanctions against Russia and Belarus, pressuring a compliant EU to dutifully follow, sanctions whose impact on global grain and fertilizer and energy supply and prices was entirely predictable. It was in effect a sanction on the US and global economy.

These are but the latest examples of deliberate US Government sabotage of the food chain as part of the Biden Green Agenda, of Davos WEF, Bill Gates and the Rockefeller Foundation, as part of their dystopian Great Reset eugenics agenda. Traditional agriculture is to be replaced by a synthetic lab grown diet of fake meats and protein from grasshoppers and worms, worldwide. All for the supposed glory of controlling global climate. This is truly mad.

NIAID’s Dr. Anthony Fauci Announces Important Vaccine Targeting Epstein-Barr Virus

The National Institutes of Health (NIH) leads an investigation into a preventative vaccine targeting Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) at the apex government research institute’s Clinical Center in Maryland.  What if this vaccine would work Dr. Anthony S. Fauci, director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), pondered—it “could prevent or reduce the severity of infection with the Epstein-Barr virus’ thereby reducing incidence of infectious mononucleosis,'' reported Fauci. He emphasized that such a breakthrough could also ‘Reduce the incidence of EBV-associated malignancies and autoimmune diseases.”

What is Epstein-Barr Virus?

A common pathogen and member of the herpes virus family, this disease can introduce serious complications.  About 10% of people infected in America annually go on to experience significant fatigue, which can go on for half a year or more. It’s apparently similar to the long COVID-19 trend.

Only about 1% of all EBV-infected patients develop serious complications, including hepatitis, neurologic problems, or severe blood abnormalities. Moreover, EBV presence can be associated with cancer from stomach and nasopharyngeal cancers to Hodgkin and Burkett lymphomas. Moreover, scientists report the virus is connected to autoimmune diseases such as Lupus Erythematosus and multiple sclerosis.

The Investigational Vaccine

Developed by Novavax, this vaccine works by targeting EBV glycoprotein gp350, which is found on the surface of the virus and virus-infected cells. EBV gp350 is also the primary target for neutralizing antibodies found in the blood of people naturally infected with EBV. Ferritin, a natural iron storage protein found in cells of all living species, is considered a promising vaccine platform because it can display proteins from the targeted virus in a dense array on its surface.

The adjuvant is intended to enhance the immune response induced by the investigational vaccine.

The Study

40 healthy volunteer adults will be enrolled in Phase 1 of clinical trials. The adults will be between the ages of 18 to 29, with half of them having prior Epstein-Barr virus infections and the other half lacking any history with the virus. Similar to the COVID-19 vaccine or flu shot, participants will get a series of three 50-microgram injections to their upper arm muscle – followed by a short period of observation.

The second and third doses will be administered 30 days and 180 days after the initial dose, with follow-up visits between each vaccination and phone calls between visits. Participation is expected to be required for 18 to 30 months.

When could an Epstein-Barr virus vaccine be ready for the public?

This is Phase 1 of a clinical trial for a virus that has never been treated via vaccine, leaving scientists with a lot of learning ahead of them. The trial itself is expected to last for four years, then, if results hold strong, regulatory approval normally takes another few years.

April 28, 2022

She may have been thousands of kilometres away, but Nomaqocwa Blackie was the glue that held her family together. 

This was the nature of the 29-year-old teacher who was found dead in her Shanghai apartment in China last week.

A postmortem has still to be conducted but SA officials say indications are the young woman’s death is not related to the tough lockdown in place in Shanghai, which has been hit by a new wave of Covid-19 infections.

Her loved ones are unable to make the funeral arrangements because they are awaiting permission from the Chinese government for her body to be repatriated.

Three more children die of hepatitis as mysterious outbreak causes more than 200 cases

May 2, 2022

Three other children have died suddenly of suspected hepatitis following a mysterious outbreak among children. Indonesia’s health ministry said the youngsters, all from the capital Jakarta, had been stricken with what is believed to be acute hepatitis.

The children had all suffered from nausea, vomiting, diarrhea and jaundice, which led to their deaths last month.

They also had a fever and seizures, but their illness has not been officially confirmed, reports The Sun.

It has been reported that if the cases are identified as the same, the death toll will rise to four.

So far, more than 200 infections have been recorded worldwide, but experts fear the number could be much higher, with not all cases officially reported.

The UK has detected the most cases, with the figure rising to 145 infections, while the US has also seen an increase.

The World Health Organization has confirmed one death but did not reveal the country where it happened.

There has been one death in the United States which has also been linked to the outbreak.

Dozens of children between the ages of one month and 16 years have been reported to have suffered from liver inflammation in more than 12 countries, however, scientists believe this is most likely caused by common viruses.

Printed from The COVID Blog: Kirk Herbstreit: long-time ESPN football analyst will miss NFL Draft coverage this week due to blood clots

BRISTOL, CONNECTICUT — A 52-year-old former college football quarterback and long-time television personality is out of action for at least a week due to a very familiar condition on this blog.

Former Ohio State University quarterback Mr. Kirk Herbstreit has been a co-analyst with Mr. Lee Corso on ESPN’s College Gameday since 1996. He never made it to the NFL after college. But Mr. Herbstreit found his calling in broadcasting. He is essentially the face of college football, and one of the most recognizable voices in the industry. But unfortunately he works for Disney-owned ESPN, where vaxx zealotry rules.

ESPN implemented its vaccine mandate in May 2021. Many employees rebelled. SportsCenter co-host Sage Steele called the vaccine mandate “sick” and “scary.”

Sage Steele.

But ultimately if you want these mainstream media jobs, you must do everything they tell you to do, no matter how immoral or wrong. Steele reluctantly received the injections before the September 30 deadline to keep her job. ESPN baseball reporter Allison Williams admirably stood on principle.

Allison Williams.

She left ESPN in October due to the mandate. Mr. Herbstreit was not going to allow experimental injections to stand in the way of his iconic status in sports broadcasting. Now he’s paying for it.

“Out of an abundance of caution…”

It’s unclear when Mr. Herbstreit received his first mRNA injection. But he announced his second Pfizer shot on April 22, 2021, almost exactly a year ago. Mr. Herbstreit said he was thankful and appreciative for the opportunity to receive the shots.

There’s no definitive proof that Mr. Herbstreit received a booster shot. But ESPN has a booster mandate in place for employees working at stadiums and arenas.

Mr. Herbstreit announced yesterday via Twitter that doctors diagnosed him with a blood clot. He did not provide further details as to the type and location of the clot. Mr. Herbstreit said he will miss the NFL Draft in Las Vegas later this week due to the condition. Here is the video via Twitter.

Mr. Herbstreit did not indicate when he would return to his other ESPN duties.

It’s just not worth it

Mr. John Clayton, another long-time ESPN and ESPN Radio personality, passed away on March 22 at age 67. Reports say he died of a “brief illness.” We all know what that means. This blogger told the story of his early radio broadcasting days in a previous article. The things you must do to work in that industry are simply not worth it. Once the novelty ran out, and it became just another job, that was it. Sycophantic obedience is a prerequisite if you desire to work in mainstream media.

We’re seeing several cases recently of people getting sick or dying almost exactly a year after their second injections. Mrs. Kristen Manwaring died after a months-long illness on April 15. She received her second injection on March 3, 2021. Mr. Thomas Senzee died “tragically and unexpectedly” on March 24, 2022. He received his second injection on April 23, 2021. Dr. Charles Hoffe’s prediction that most of the vaxxed will perished within two years is starting to look prophetic.

Stay vigilant and protect your friends and loved ones.
