The covid shots apparently cause memory loss since those that got the four shots can’t remember they were told vaccination prevented catching covid, hospitalization, and death
COVID-19 vaccines help protect against severe illness, hospitalization and death. COVID-19 vaccines also help protect against infection. People who are vaccinated may still get COVID-19. When people who have been vaccinated get COVID-19, they are much less likely to experience severe symptoms than people who are unvaccinated.

A new CDC study has found that the Covid-19 bivalent booster reduces the risk of symptomatic infection from the most common subvariant circulating in the U.S. right now by about half.
Additional new data, set to be published on the CDC website on Wednesday, also shows that individuals who received an updated vaccine reduced their risk of death by nearly 13 fold, when compared to the unvaccinated, and by two fold when compared to those with at least one monovalent vaccine but no updated booster.

Its not really a vaccine if you can still catch it, spread it, and need boosters forever.
Properly called a thereuputic, like ivermectin and hydroxychloroquin
Yes!,,,,, Thank you for being real and thinking critically. The ploy being employed is a common tactic used by democrats——keep repeating a lie everyday, hundreds of thousands of times, people start believing it because of the fake information tsunami, especially with distracted low information voters who cannot even name our first President and cannot name the three branches of government. They have no interest in knowing either as long as beer, bud, and online games are available.This goes for the Oscar the Flying Grouch man caused metaphysical climate change religion as well as EVs, solar panels, and windmills, all of which have a negative return in comparison to the benefits of fossil fuels. This is because it takes more fossil fuels to construct, set up, perform maintenance on, and recycle these noble but already failed ideas than they save from the energy generated. It’s just simple facts that are willfully ignored, to hard to understand for some, or are purposely lied about for personal enrichment. In essence, , the herd clique mentality is much easier to go with versus thinking critically on your own by actually doing research versus having your friends, reporters, and paid political shills telling you what to think from their personal interpretation as laymen. Another example is the Trump Russia hoax which democrats to their dying day will still claim he was compromised when the reverse is fact, as the current guy in the white toilet bowl is the compromised one., both mentally and physically. Same with January 6th. There was no insurrection, total fraud. Were there several hundred goofballs out of 1,000,000 there who acted badly and broke laws, why yes. Did they have guns, why no. Wars and coups and insurrections don’t work without guns. American flag wavers are hardly insurrectionists. . But there was a year long insurrection by BLM the year before with dozens killed, hundreds injured, and billions in property damage as well as during the Trump inauguration when over 50 Secret Service agents were injured by cement and brick throwing democrat Antifa and blm rioters attempting to breach the White House fences and trying to burn down a historic church across the block. Ask any democrat about these facts and they will either claim ignorance or state those were noble riots. What a joke. It is all a diversion used by the elite to get their way no matter what. They will lose in the end along with anyone who worships at their fake alter in search of the ring to unite them all.

Why is it that you believe a vaccine should necessarily confer absolute immunity? Can you name one that does?
Nothing is absolute. However the polio vaccine has a 99% – 100% effectiveness. Smallpox vaccine has a 95% effectiveness. Once immunized against those two diseases, you are literally immunized from contracting or spreading them again. Plus you don’t need a bunch of boosters.
You can’t really say that about the covid “vaccine”.
That’s why I stand behind in the belief that the covid vaccine is not really a vaccine if you can still catch it, spread it, and need boosters forever.
So the flu vaccine is not really a vaccine?

Never heard flu shot called “vaccine” before you today
Influenza (flu) vaccines (often called “flu shots”) are vaccines that protect against the four influenza viruses that research indicates will be most common during the upcoming season. Most flu vaccines are “flu shots” given with a needle, usually in the arm, but there also is a nasal spray flu vaccine.
@Google It
lol and you still feel qualified to share your opinions on vaccine efficacy? dude, sit this one out.
The flu vaccine is incredibly ineffective and responsible for about 75% of the payouts from the vaccine injury fund.
Hardly a standard to strive toward
I guess until such time that the flu shot reaches the effectiveness of the Polio and Smallpox vaccine, it really isn’t a vaccine either. People die all the time from the flu, despite best efforts. But the majority survive to see another day. Same can be said about covid.
I have a hard time thinking that you actually believe that. Let’s please just stop the nonsense.
boosters boosting the death rate as all cause mortality up 30% YOY in UK… Apparently the boosted and breakthrough’d are dropping like flies.
Could you provide a source for that? I cannot find any figure near that on the internet.
It’s just more anti-vaxxer BS.
No facts to back up what they say. Or if they do present what they say is facts they turnout not to be true facts
These web blogs are a dime a dozen. Wait, with inflation they are 90 cents a dozen.
apparently “anti-vaxxer BS” is now Truth. I am a pro vaccine science loving college degree holding taxpayer. Got my tetanus shots two years back. Elon Musk is also BS then as is the Dilbert guy, the UK, India, RFK jr. , etc… brother Farakkan, etc.. you ain’t up on the new developments. New ish came to light…sorry dude
And like the lady asked. Can you back up what you said?
That link is just some dude with a website giving his opinion..
UK Death rate is up 30% in the first two weeks of the year. The shots have been banned for under 50’s….
That’s a fact.
No the shots have not been banned for the under 50.
That’s a fact.
The UK death rate is discussed below.
That’s a fact.

“The number of deaths registered in the UK in the week ending 13 January 2023 (Week 2) was 19,916, which was 20.4% above the five-year average (3,377 excess deaths); of these deaths, 1,059 involved COVID-19.”
https://www.ons.gov.uk/peoplepopulationandcommunity/birthsdeathsandmarriages/deaths/bulletins/deathsregisteredweeklyinenglandandwalesprovisional/weekending13january2023
1,059 out of 19,916 – sounds about right. A lot of the other deaths are the result of the demands on the health system from those not vaccinated resulting in “collateral damages.”
That is certainly an explanation that confirms your opinion.
The UK announced recently that they will be publishing the next round of mortality data segregated by vaccination status, covering 2022 and possibly the first week or two of 2023, by the end of February. That will be a very interesting data set and should give us all some insight into whether there is any excess mortality associated with these vaccines.
It’s frustrating that cdc takes so long to publish mortality data for the US, many of our data sets are only complete up to 2020.
An “opinion” based on facts.
“Record long waiting lists, ambulance delays, and inaccessible care have driven a surge in excess deaths involving heart disease in England, an analysis by the British Heart Foundation has found.1
“Between March 2020 and August 2022 there were more than 30 000 excess deaths involving coronary heart disease, an average of 230 a week above the expected death rate. In addition, many people have not been able to access care for conditions such as high blood pressure, that could raise the risk of a future heart attack or stroke, the foundation’s report said.”
https://www.bmj.com/content/379/bmj.o2659
An opinion based on…opinion. Your quoted article identifies some possible sources of the excess mortality (resulting from other covid countermeasures) it does not prove they are the source of all of this excess mortality.
It’s a shame we didn’t conduct a proper placebo controlled clinical trial to collect this data and have to rely on observation after the fact. We should have a much clearer picture by the end of this year as we get mortality data from various countries for 2022
Nope. Your wrong. Real wrong. Read both sidesNot just one. The Vax doesn’t work. Masks don’t work. Most people know this by now but I’ll let you slide this time. I know people are scared who got vaxed. I would be. Glad I didn’t I hope it’s not as bad as some people are claiming. I have a lot of family members and friends who took the shot. I pray for them🙏🙏

Nuclear weapons have been used. Hiroshima, Nagasaki, numerous tests.
Atomic (fission) weapons were used in Japan, nuclear weapons based on fusion of atoms, much more energetic, have yet to be used on battlefield
The H-bomb, used on Nagasaki, was a fission reaction used to generate a fusion explosion.
A-bomb, not H-bomb, fusion explosion hasn’t been used anywhere on the battlefield yet
Nagasaki was just a city, huh?
You might want to learn some actual history – start by investigating the differences between the bombs used on Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
You do not know what you are talking about. As usual.
People also ask
Was Nagasaki fission or fusion?
Fission
Fission weapons were the first atomic bombs to be developed, tested, and used in war, when the United States dropped two atomic bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki in Japan in 1945, at the end of World War II. Fusion bombs, also called hydrogen or thermonuclear bombs, are vastly more powerful than fission bombs.
It was a hydrogen bomb that was dropped on Nagasaki.
You seem to be confused.
I’m sorry for your misunderstanding but Google will resolve the mistake for you. I’m surprised you didn’t search before replying
Hiroshima, Nagasaki count don’t they?
Yes, those count. Nuclear weapons were authorized to be dropped on the Empire of Japan by Democrat President Harry S Truman. Now, we’re headed for another possible Nuclear threat under another Democrat President* whose mental faculties are suspect. May God protect us all whenever warmongering Democrats are in charge.
Atomic bombs used in Japan are the primer to warm things up and get them going in nuclear fusion bombs, orders of magnitude more destructive
Do you mean the first time nuclear weapons are used in Europe? Or the Middle East if Israel gets nuked? Or just plain WW III?
He has been waiting to use his bomb shelter since the Cuban Crisis..💥🍄
First time nuclear fusion bombs on battlefield
The Reason is to cover up for the covid shot disaster, and the illegal treasonous bribes n such?
This vaccine does all three, and that is overwhelmingly supported by the data. If you expected absolute “prevention” then that was your misunderstanding. No vaccines offer that, not this one or any other you can name.
All I hear in your commenteary is somebody with a weak grasp on science but who is more interested in staking out a political perch that feels secure.

The Shots prevent shareholders from facing losses in PFE, MRNA, and in the personal holdings of major political and business figures.
The shots prevent the US Gov from defaulting on the 31 TRILLION of debt they owe to seniors and bond holders — less social security and medicare benefits = more big government to come!
Don’g get me started on Public Deathcare…
President* Biden said the pandemic is over. Protections against evictions due to the pandemic are ending. No more free money to freeloaders because the pandemic is over. Schools have to borrow money to feed kids because the government told families t that their kids would be fed two or three square meals a day and the federal government ended the CARES act because they don’t care…errr! because the pandemic is over. No one wears masks anymore because they did nothing to stop the spread unless they were N95 masks. And Americans have stopped taking the “vaccines” because they are ineffective, were misrepresented and because of perceived or real side effects from the “vaccines”.
Face it, fear only works for so long before people get fed up and pissed off. Move along boomers. Ya’all gonna die sometime and probably broke because ya’all we’re gonna stick it to, “The Man” and now you’re all laying around shilling for “The Man” and dependent upon “The Man” for your meager existence.

Fact Check-Fake headline from The Conversation asks why the unvaccinated didn’t ‘warn’ the vaccinated
By Reuters Fact Check
A screenshot purporting to show a future headline for an article published by The Conversation asks why the “unvaccinated did not do more to warn” people who were inoculated with a COVID-19 vaccine, but it is fabricated.
https://www.reuters.com/article/factcheck-the-conversation-vaccine-idUSL1N3491WD
You’ve introduced me to so many covid conspiracy theories lately.
Your preemptive fact checks have started to sound like;
“Fact Check: Ukiah PD says there is no evidence of more corrupt, violent, criminals in their ranks.”
It’s not convincing and it’s not the path to repair the lost trust.
Why have so few people chosen to stay “up to date” on their injections? Is everyone an “antivaxxer” now? (According to you and several other posters, the answer to that question seems to be yes. All of the 200 million people who apparently don’t want to keep getting “boosted” are antivaxxers.)
GF, you need to “factcheck” harder
Here’s the text of that “fabricated article” https://iqfy.com/unvaccinated-silence/
They knew: why didn’t the unvaccinated do more to warn us?The unvaccinated knew what we didn’t. Some of them said too little. Most said nothing at all. A lot of blood is now on their hands.As the world struggles to come to terms with the devastating effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, one question that continues to surface is why the unvaccinated didn’t do more to warn us about the potential dangers of being injected.
While well intending citizens lined up, did the right thing, and received their COVID19 vaccinations — now seeming to do more harm than good — their unvaccinated friends stood by and let them do it. Some of them said too little. Some said nothing at all.
Even though they knew what we didn’t.
Our blood is now on their hands.
Those are strong words. But the unvaccinated had access to important information about the potential side effects of vaccines. They knew about the risks of severe allergic reactions, blood clots, and other serious health complications. They knew that vaccines did not immunize us. They knew it wasn’t effective, and that they can cause more harm than good.
They knew all of that, but instead of warning us, the unvaccinated chose to remain silent. They chose to look the other way and not speak out about the potential dangers of vaccines. They let millions of good folks who did the right thing (at the time) fall to death and disease, and many antivaxxers even gloated online about how their coin flip had been the right bet. The more diabolical even urged folks they disagree with to “get boosted.”
It has become all too clear. The silence of the unvaccinated was a dangerous, sociopathic, and irresponsible decision that has had serious consequences for those of us who received the vaccinations.
And silence is, after all, consent.
Related: How do we prevent discrimination against the vaccinated?
It is time for the unvaccinated to take responsibility for their actions and to work with the rest of us to find a solution to this crisis. We cannot afford to let their selfishness and lack of action continue to harm our communities. It is time for the unvaccinated to step up and do the right thing.
The unvaccinated should by any moral measuring stick have done more to warn about the potential risks — to help us make informed decisions about our health. And they must now ask us for our forgiveness.
And, hand to heart, we may just give it to them.
Because we are good people. We took those injections because it was the right thing to do — until it wasn’t.
Nobody said the article was fabricated. Your article is satire, or I hope so. That’s a pretty good website by the way. Some good humor there.
Re-read what was said.
“A screenshot purporting to show a future headline for an article published by The Conversation asks why the “unvaccinated did not do more to warn” people who were inoculated with a COVID-19 vaccine, but it is fabricated.
Because the definition of misinformation ‘fails to provide a person of ordinary intelligence fair notice of what is prohibited, [and] is so standardless that it authorizes or encourages seriously discriminatory enforcement,’ the provision is unconstitutionally vague,” Shubb wrote. “Accordingly, the court concludes that plaintiffs have demonstrated a likelihood of success on the merits of their vagueness challenges.” — judge Shubb

I figured it had something to do with the fraudulent nursing thing…
But it’s legit a real problem, and I am concerned that some of them may have been employed locally, during the time my friends perished at St.Joes…
From the above link…
“In a statement, American Nurses Association President Jennifer Mensik “Kennedy called the alleged scheme “extremely unsettling” and those involved “deplorable.”
“This undermines everything the nursing profession represents and stands for and is in direct opposition to the Code of Ethics for Nurses,” she continued. “Furthermore, these unlawful and unethical acts disparage the reputation of actual nurses everywhere … We support the investigation and the judicial process to ensure individuals found to have been involved in this scheme are held accountable.”
Call me ” extremely unsettled”, and do me a favor…
Please…
I’m still grieving, and I’m still angry about it…
Consider looking into if any of these “deplorable”s, were hired “traveling nurses”, “locally”…
If so, their inexperience and incompetence may have possibly contributed to an increased COVID mortality, when they were “thrown to the wolves”.

And I consider this a lead that might explain WTF happened during late August-Early September of 2021 in that regard…
It would exonerate the good nurses, that so many have rightfully defended, by exposing the bad ones, that are possibly not, that clearly exist, that have blended in with the rest, and have been wrongly defended….
They must be located and purged, for goodness’ sake…
I hope everyone would agree to that…
“Also on Monday, Washington state’s Nursing Care Quality Assurance Commission announced it had identified 150 nursing applicants using credentials from the alleged scheme. According to KING5 in Seattle, of the 150 people, seven have had their licenses rescinded, four applicants were denied, 62 are in legal limbo, and the remaining 77 are under investigation.”

SciCheck DigestGovernment health agencies disclosed a potential safety concern for strokes in those 65 and older with one of the COVID-19 vaccines, but the agencies haven’t found any causal relationship and the concern was flagged by just one of several monitoring systems. Anti-vaccine campaigners, however, have wrongly claimed the agencies have found a link between the boosters and strokes.

The investor is intent on remaking the country to his liberal image, from our foreign-policy priorities to undermining our criminal-justice system. This week, The Post takes a look at the reach of Soros’ billions. In this fourth essay, Matt Palumbo, author of “The Man Behind the Curtain: Inside the Secret Network of George Soros,” talks about how “fact checking” can shape the narrative.
It’s not enough for George Soros to fund the media and encourage stories that back up his point of view — he has to make sure no one disagrees with it.
Last year, Soros partnered with fellow leftist billionaire Reid Hoffman (the co-founder of LinkedIn) to financially back a project to fight so-called disinformation. The name they chose might have come from George Orwell himself: Good Information Inc.

Attorney and legal commentator Preston Moore posted a video over the weekend saying he was offered, and rejected, $400 by the “Good Information Foundation” to make a video attacking Donald Trump and “Trump Republicans.” The foundation allegedly wanted Moore to create the video about January 6 and post it on his social media platforms to reach the widest possible audience.
“It became really clear that … they wanted me to use the most graphic images possible,” Moore told Breitbart News. “They wanted me to use fear to manipulate people into voting blue, or into voting not Trump. … And when they’re giving examples of the things they wanted me to say — don’t say ‘Trump and his allies,’ say ‘Trump Republicans’ — it became really clear that this was about putting out information … to impact midterms.”
LOL $400? He must not make very good videos.
And that was a Breitbart News article.

Breitbart News has published a number of falsehoods and conspiracy theories,[9] as well as intentionally misleading stories,[11] including a story that the Obama administration had supported ISIS during insurgency against the Syrian regime.[10] It has sometimes published these misleading stories as part of an intentional strategy to manipulate media narratives via disinformation.

When did a quote from CS Lewis become spam?
Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron’s cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience
C. S. Lewis
Sounds like the right-wing Christians trying to take over our Government with their Christian Nationalism.
Sheesh- can’t you find of disagreeing to a comment without belittling instead the people who make it? Are people of religion not allowed to talk about philosophy because you hate them? Because that would be a perfect example of those who torment without end because their conscience approves of doing so.
Sheesh, 3 days ago something was said.
I wouldn’t even have seen your reply but for chance.
Anyway…was referring to right wing nationalism not all Christians.
Which to me is not a philosophy but a Fascist movement to take over the Government.
CS Lewis was an atheist turned Christian with some good quotes. But even his church had it’s faults and biases.
True Christians are a lover of this Jesus and his teachings. I am fine with that.
I try to adhere to his teaching along with many other great teacher religious or not.

Covid-19 has become the eighth most common cause of death among children in the United States, according to a study published Monday.
Children are significantly less likely to die from Covid-19 than any other age group – less than 1% of all deaths since the start of the pandemic have been among those younger than 18, according to federal data. Covid-19 has been the third leading cause of death in the broader population.
But it’s rare for children to die for any reason, the researchers wrote, so the burden of Covid-19 is best understood in the context of other pediatric deaths.

Matthew 4:1-11
New King James Version
Satan Tempts Jesus
4 Then Jesus was led up by the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted by the devil. 2 And when He had fasted forty days and forty nights, afterward He was hungry. 3 Now when the tempter came to Him, he said, “If You are the Son of God, command that these stones become bread.”
4 But He answered and said, “It is written, ‘Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds from the mouth of God.’ ”
5 Then the devil took Him up into the holy city, set Him on the pinnacle of the temple, 6 and said to Him, “If You are the Son of God, throw Yourself down. For it is written:
‘He shall give His angels charge over you,’
and,
‘In their hands they shall bear you up,
Lest you dash your foot against a stone.’ ”
7 Jesus said to him, “It is written again, ‘You shall not [a]tempt the Lord your God.’ ”
8 Again, the devil took Him up on an exceedingly high mountain, and showed Him all the kingdoms of the world and their glory. 9 And he said to Him, “All these things I will give You if You will fall down and worship me.”
10 Then Jesus said to him, [b]“Away with you, Satan! For it is written, ‘You shall worship the Lord your God, and Him only you shall serve.’ ”
11 Then the devil left Him, and behold, angels came and ministered to Him.

#7 makes a good point. But for the lord bit. Who is he?
1 The proverbs of Solomon son of David, king of Israel:
2 for gaining wisdom and instruction;
for understanding words of insight;
3 for receiving instruction in prudent behavior,
doing what is right and just and fair;
4 for giving prudence to those who are simple,[a]
knowledge and discretion to the young—
5 let the wise listen and add to their learning,
and let the discerning get guidance—
6 for understanding proverbs and parables,
the sayings and riddles of the wise.[b]
7 The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge,
but fools despise wisdom and instruction.
There is actually 26 more.
You brought up proverbs, not me.
And let’s talk about this wise King Salomon.
15 King Solomon forced slaves to work for him to build the Temple and his palace. Then he used these slaves to build many other things. He built the Millo and the city wall around Jerusalem. Then he rebuilt the cities of Hazor, Megiddo, and Gezer..
The Bible~
Jesus! 1000?
In Deuteronomy 17:16–17, a king is commanded not to multiply horses or wives, neither greatly multiply to himself gold or silver. Solomon sinned in all three of these areas. In addition to his wives, he collected 666 talents of gold each year (1 Kings 10:14), a huge amount for a small nation like Israel.
“Pick your heroes wisely”
Somebody~
And Saul killed Christians before he became Paul.
David was a sinner. Nope, none were perfect.
At the end of King Solomon’s life, He said all those things were vanity.
I would change my name too if I was Saul…..Going around killing people is bad for the reputation.
The Beginning of Knowledge
(Proverbs 9:1–12)
1These are the proverbs of Solomon son of David,
king of Israel,
2for gaining wisdom and discipline,
for comprehending words of insight,
3and for receiving instruction in wise living
and in righteousness, justice, and equity.
4To impart prudence to the simplea
and knowledge and discretion to the young,
5let the wise listen and gain instruction,
and the discerning acquire wise counsel
6by understanding the proverbs and parables,
the sayings and riddles of the wise.
7The fear of the LORD is the beginning of knowledge,
but fools b despise wisdom and discipline.

When you copy paste a bunch of links (each one of those numbers is a link to Biblehub) understandably WordPress wonders what kind of weird shenanigans you are up to. WordPress doesn’t have God on hold. WordPress has link spammers on hold. If you would try to minimize your links to one or at the very most three, you would be unlikely to get held.
Understandably, more than 3 links mean weird shenanigans.

The Lab-Leak Theory Still Can’t Be Disproved. Should We Care?
The idea has been part of the public discourse for three years. It isn’t really about preventing future pandemics.
The lab-leak debate has raged for three years now, without reaching a universally accepted resolution. There may not be a conclusive answer for a while: It took 29 years to definitively identify the source of Ebola, 26 years for HIV/AIDS, and 15 years for SARS. https://slate.com/technology/2023/01/lab-leak-three-years-debate-covid-origins.html

Fake stories aren’t just disguised in articles or headlines. Pieces of false information can be hidden in pictures, videos and memes posted online – which are not what we would traditionally call ‘news’!
And because the internet is made up of lots of different types of media, it’s easy to see how a made-up fact can spread around really quickly. This also means that the original source of false information is hard to find among all the posts and shares.

This weapons delivery is also coming on top of the U.S. paying for the Ukraine government to meet its financial obligations, payrolls and government worker pensions.
(Reuters) – WASHINGTON, Jan 31 – The United States is readying more than $2 billion worth of military aid for Ukraine that is expected to include longer-range rockets for the first time as well as other munitions and weapons, two U.S. officials briefed on the matter told Reuters on Tuesday.
The weapons aid is expected to be announced as soon as this week, the officials said. It is also expected to include support equipment for Patriot air defense systems, precision guided munitions and Javelin anti-tank weapons, they added.
One of the officials said a portion of the package, expected to be $1.725 billion, would come from a fund known as the Ukraine Security Assistance Initiative (USAI), which allows President Joe Biden’s administration to get weapons from industry rather than from existing U.S. weapons stocks.
The USAI funds would go toward the purchase of a new weapon, the Ground Launched Small Diameter Bomb (GLSDB) made by Boeing Co (BA.N), which have a range of 94 miles (150 km). The United States has rebuffed Ukraine’s requests for the 185-mile (297-km) range ATACMS missile.
[…] GLSDB is made jointly by SAAB AB (SAABb.ST) and Boeing. It combines the GBU-39 Small Diameter Bomb (SDB) with the M26 rocket motor, both of which are common in U.S. inventories.
[…] GLSDB is GPS-guided, can defeat some electronic jamming, is usable in all weather conditions, and can be used against armored vehicles, according to SAAB’s website. The GBU-39 – which would function as the GLSDB’s warhead – has small, folding wings that allow it to glide more than 100km if dropped from an aircraft and hit targets as small as 3 feet (1 meter) in diameter.
The USAI funds would also be used to pay for more components of HAWK air defenses, counter drone systems, counter artillery and air surveillance radars, communications equipment, PUMA drones, and spare parts for major systems like Patriot and Bradley, one of the officials said.

“Bad Company”
A federal judge halted California’s attempt to censor doctors when, last Wednesday, the court enjoined the state statute that banned medical professionals from spreading purported “misinformation” or “disinformation” to their patients about Covid-19. The decision represents the latest victory against the authoritarian edicts that quickly followed the outbreak of the pandemic three years ago but continue to this day.
In his ruling, Shubb first held that the plaintiffs had “standing” or the right to sue because, if allowed to go into effect, the doctors faced an actual injury in the form of disciplinary action. The court then held that the plaintiffs were likely to succeed on the merits of their due process claim — “likelihood of success on the merits” is the controlling standard at the preliminary injunction stage — because the terms “misinformation” and “contemporary scientific consensus” were unconstitutionally vague, making it impossible for a reasonable person to know what the law prohibited.
The court further stressed that the phrase “contemporary scientific consensus” lacks an understandable meaning because it has no technical meaning within the medical community and was left undefined in AB 2098. Covid-19 is a “quickly evolving area of science that in many aspects eludes consensus,” the court noted, reasoning that while the phrase “contrary to the standard of care” is a clearly defined term in law, by adding the undefined language, “false information that is contradicted by contemporary scientific consensus,” the California legislature made the statute “grammatically incoherent.”
The federalist
That’s good news. It sucks that we have to waste state money on the process of producing flagrantly illegal laws and then processing them through the judicial system. But at least some checks are still intact.
Canadian Leaders Finally Waking Up To The Horrors Of Single-Payer Health Care
In my last column, I wrote that Canada’s healthcare system was no model for the United States. Perhaps Canadian officials were listening.
Earlier this month, Ontario Premier Doug Ford announced that Canada’s largest province would take a page from the U.S. playbook—and expand private care in order to provide some relief to the millions of Canadians waiting for treatment.
Ford recounted that a CEO had told him, “There’s only two places in the world that have the health care that we have . . . Cuba and North Korea.”
“We need to improve,” Ford said. “So we’re making the changes with the support of the CEOs and with the associations.” Ford’s push to expand private care is a necessary step out of the socialist wilderness. More importantly, it signals a shift in the popular consciousness. How can progressive Americans advocate for Medicare for All with a straight face when their beau idéal, Canada, is going in the opposite direction?

Yes our health care system is just fine.. Try looking into other countries besides Canada.
The U.S. health system trails far behind a number of other high-income countries when it comes to affordability, administrative efficiency, equity, and health care outcomes, according to a new Commonwealth Fund study. Using surveys and other standardized data on quality and health care outcomes to measure and compare patient and physician experiences across a group of 11 high-income nations, the researchers rank the United States last overall in providing equitably accessible, affordable, high-quality health care.
Google-
IE:
All citizens in Denmark enjoy universal, equal and free healthcare services. Citizens have equal access to treatment, diagnosis and choice of hospital under health insurance group one.
In the US, one of every three healthcare dollars goes into the pockets of the insurance industry. Their primary job (as they see it) is to deny coverage to as many patients as possible for as many services as possible.
Our closest thing to single-payer, Medicare, takes 5-cents of every healthcare dollar for administrative overhead.
What is needed is to spend some time researching what actually goes on and what actually are the definitions are in each country. For example the UK’s NHS is in a state of collapse in a number of places with people unable to access services in emergences. France was rated number one in the EU … Until the pandemic happened and they fast ran out of beds in hospitals. Some countries simply don’t pay for expensive drugs or treat the elderly. Denmark, as I see you mentioned below, has this neat little policy of not doing routine screenings for cancer, especially among older people, so cases are advanced when found. But their metric looks good because it’s- Ta Da- the definition counts people whose illness is found early and treated successfully. Things that are not able to be treated are excluded from being counted. You can cure what you don’t find so it’s not counted because for those people there is no longer a cure. Lots of EU countries do not try to save early premie babies and count them as still born if they die within a certain number of days. The US generally tries to save every one.
All health care is a trade off. Whether it is Denmark not allowing immigrants or simply using different data, it is not easy to compare health outcomes between countries. And you need to stop thinking what you read in the media is a real examination of the issues. It’s not all about money. Our life expectancy is affected by, I admit, our huge drug, violence and illegal immigration issues. But that is not exactly health care.
Again just a lot of words to cloud the issue.
Health care in the US is abysmal and needs to be fixed. Universal health care should be a given.
Again stop attacking because you delight in your soap opera spats with the other Guest. And if you want other people to respond timely to your posts, stop filling up these pages with silly, partisan yet personal sniping.
The US health system is not abysmal. In some fields and in some places, people here have literally the best care. However in Humboldt County, with drug addiction rampant, a high percentage of MediCal patients, unrelenting work for medical people and constant complaints, what doctor would choose to work here? They are not stupid. They can choose to work in a place that benefits from Obamacare instead of is screwed over by it, has a much large population of people not on low reimbursing MediCal (how you can see the problems there and try to double down on government care?) and not be on call 24/7 with so many crazies yelling at them. Our level of care is bad HERE yet you want to fix it by making sure everyone has the same level of poor care everywhere.
I gave you examples of differently problematic poor care in other places with national health care and you just call it words. And i could give you a dozen more, since I have deliberately sought out information.. But since you are not interested in reasoned discourse and I don’t want to be dragged into you time consuming recreational sport of “who can spit out the most nonsense”, I will leave it at that.
Thank you. I don’t believe I asked for your opinion in the first place.
And certainly not about my debates with Guest.
So get off your fucking high horse and do some real research in the US health care system. Start with this

Excuse me for doubting what you say. Back your shit up with more than words
More like waking up to both single-payer AND more private: can- and want-to crowd should get all the health care they can and want to pay for and have access to while others should get all health care they need via other means. That makes sense. So, in effect, the Horror headline ya posted is … a horror of a headline and from a magazine embraced by the wealthy
So, gf wants me to look at “high income countries”
And you don’t want me to look at “a headline and from a magazine embraced by the wealthy”
Perhaps you can suggest a high income country with poverty magazines for health care info you agree with.
There are currently 17 countries that offer single-payer healthcare:
https://worldpopulationreview.com/country-rankings/countries-with-single-payer
Don’t forget the difference in population, and the Doctor to patient ratio.
Governments have other priorities and funding health care is one not on the top of their list. The rich still do okay as they pay for a trip to the US and get care. It’s the middle class and poor who get screwed when government funding is “scrutinized.”
We can also factor in how many countries simply rely on the US for defense of their countries and don’t have that expense.
Oh BS. What does that have to do with quality of care?
