The European Centre for Disease Control and the European Medicines Agency’s Covid-19 task force has concluded that it is too early to consider using a fourth dose of mRNA Covid-19 vaccines in the general population.

However, both agencies have agreed that a fourth dose (or second booster) can be given to adults 80 years of age and above, after reviewing data on the higher risk of severe Covid-19 in this age group and the protection provided by a fourth dose.

‘At the moment we’re focusing all our efforts on vaccination. And NIAC’s advice so far has been sound. So I think it’s not unreasonable to look at giving a fourth dose to people who are at higher risk of getting severe COVID if they do get [the virus].

‘I suppose what we do have is that vaccines are really very safe. So if you’re thinking of an intervention like a fourth dose, the worst case scenario is that you give someone a vaccine that they didn’t 100% need — that’s not a particularly high-risk thing to do.

‘We can [also] see on the ground that immunity to coronaviruses like SARS-CoV2 wanes very rapidly. So I think, realistically, we are looking at the possibility of a fourth dose in the Autumn.’

Bonn, Germany.

Via The Local:

In a stinging defeat for Chancellor Olaf Scholz’s coalition, 378 MPs voted against the bill, while 296 voted in favour.

Scholz, who in late November touted compulsory jabs for all adults as the surest way out of the pandemic, had set a goal of introducing the jabs in “late February or early March”.

….MPs also voted against a motion from the opposition CDU/CSU parties that would have mandated the introduction of a general vaccine register and paved the way for a targeted vaccine mandate for certain professions and vulnerable groups.

Two motions against a vaccine mandate were also voted down in the Bundestag on Thursday.

Via RTÉ News:

The National Immunisation Advisory Committee (NIAC) has recommended a fourth Covid vaccine dose for everyone aged 65 and older.

It also recommended a second booster for those aged 12 and older who are immunocompromised and children aged five to 11 who are immunocompromised should complete an extended primary course, which is a total of three vaccine doses.

Meanwhile…

“Those who are unvaccinated or incompletely vaccinated continue to be disproportionately affected and account for approximately a third of hospitalisations for Covid-19.

“As such, I urge anyone for whom an additional dose of vaccine has been recommended, or anyone yet to receive their primary course or booster vaccine do so as soon as possible.

“I have asked the NIAC to continue to actively examine the evidence regarding the likely benefit of a second booster to other groups, vaccine choice and interval, in order to make further recommendations in this regard.”

‘It was just another government racket for 37 billion pounds of UK and COVID relief money was filched by fraudsters. For purposes of comparison, that’s a third of the NHS total budget, a third of the NHS total annual budget fetched by COVID fraudsters.

“Hundreds of footballers and other athletes have died of heart attacks after getting a COVID shot, hundreds of guys dropping dead often on the bench in the peak of condition. There were figures suggesting as many as 20,000 residents of the United Kingdom may have died from the vaccine. Suddenly, there’s a lot of unexplained excess mortality around among the young and middle aged including minor trends of 52 year old celebrities dropping dead in Australia.

“This is a public policy scandal.”

Yale University study to test “how persuasive messaging affects COVID-19 vaccine uptake intentions”

Ever felt manipulated?

Read on.

Via The Naked Emperor’s newsletter:

You may have naively believed that the fear, pressure and psychological toll of the pandemic caused your friends, family or colleagues to act in an unrecognisable way but it was all carefully planned.

They conducted a study (and I’m sure this wasn’t the only one) to see which pressure points would work best on different parts of the population and then carefully released mountains of propaganda (funded by you) to turn your friends and family against you. This nudging was all done to get you to take a vaccine you decided you didn’t want.

The ethics statement in the study says the experiments conducted were fielded under an exemption granted by the University. It’s not difficult to understand why.

Whether mass vaccination was the only way out of the pandemic or not, behaviourally nudging citizens to guilt each other into taking a novel treatment was not the way a civilised society should have acted.

They wanted you to get angry in order to get vaccinated but they failed. But they wanted you to get angry, so get angry. Get angry that the population was psychologically manipulated to turn on one another. Get angry that your friends and family were nudged into parroting the phrases used in the study to make you feel guilty, stupid or embarrassed.

Get angry that you were socially ostracised and de-invited from events. Get angry that your colleagues made you lose your job.

And if you were one of those who tried to convince someone to get vaccinated, get angry that you were so easily manipulated.

Fight!

…via Steve Kirsch:

If they truly wanted to end vaccine hesitancy, all they have to do is require autopsies if you die within 60 days of vaccination and require the medical examiners to make the required tests to determine vaccine involvement (as doctors Bhakdi and Burkhardt have done) and publish them. Publishing a fraudulent report would be a criminal offence.

This would end the debate.

Or they could simply require all licensed embalmers to check for the telltale clots and make the numbers public. Again, it would be a crime to falsify reports.

Or they could do both.

Why don’t they do this?

I’ll tell you why they don’t do it: They don’t do it because they know the results would be devastating and would immediately halt the vaccine and discredit the FDA, CDC, the entire medical establishment, virtually all members of Congress, and the mainstream media.

Why doesn’t Florida Governor DeSantis require this in Florida? What is he afraid of? Why doesn’t Governor Newsom require this in California? What does he have to fear? DeSantis would be the most likely of any governor to do this. He could be a world hero if he did this.
Nobody wants transparency of the data. They all want to keep you in the dark.

My suggestion isn’t limited to the US. Any public health official anywhere in the world could order this…

Anyone?

Indian Wells, California, USA yesterday

Yesterday.

Indian Wells, California, USA.

Via Metro:

Rafael Nadal says he suffered from ‘worrying’ breathing difficulties during his straight-sets defeat by Taylor Fritz in the Indian Wells final.

Nadal, who became the most successful male tennis player in history when he won the Australian Open in January, suffered a 6-3 7-6 (7-5) defeat to American Fritz.

The Spaniard left the court for treatment at 4-0 down in the first set and said afterwards he was experiencing difficulties breathing.

He will prioritise finding out what the problem is, saying:

“When I’m breathing, when I’m moving, it’s like a needle all the time inside. I get dizzy a little bit because it’s painful. It’s a kind of pain that limits me a lot. It’s not only about pain, I don’t feel very well because it affects my breathing.”

Novak Djokovic was forced out of the same competition over his unvaccinated status.

Hailey Baldwin Bieber is recovering after developing a blood clot that moved to her brain

This morning/afternoon.

Via People:

With situations like Bieber’s, the incidents are typically called mini-strokes or a transient ischemic attack (TIA): “That means there was a blood clot, it dissolved up completely and the person is completely a hundred percent back to normal,” Dr. Shazam Hussain, the director of the Cerebrovascular Center at Cleveland Clinic, said.  If an MRI shows any injury to the brain, however, “then it becomes a full stroke.”

Situations like Bieber’s are something that everyone should watch out for, young and old, Hussain says.

“We think of stroke as being something that happens in older ages, but we are seeing it in younger and younger people,” he says. “It relates, generally, to people having unhealthy lifestyles, maybe not eating as well or not getting in regular exercise, along with other factors like genetics. So it’s important that people don’t just think of it as something that happens to older people. If you’re younger and have those symptoms, you’ve got to get to the hospital.”
