New York has fined Amish private schools &#36;118k – more than they can pay – for refusing to vaccinate children, and now the Amish are heading to the Supreme Court.<br />

(<a href="https://www.lifesitenews.com/news/amish-fight-new-york-vaccine-mandate-for-children-left-with-no-choice/" target="_blank" rel="noopener" class="mycode_url">LifeSiteNews</a>) — New York’s large Amish population is threatening a mass exodus from the state as a court battle against forced vaccines for children rages on. The Amish are now pinning their hopes on the case being heard by the U.S. Supreme Court. <br />
<br />
Governor Kathy Hochul has continued to insist that Amish children attending school in one-room schoolhouses — which receive no state or federal funding — must submit to her state’s tyrannical vaccine mandates or incur massive fines. <br />
<br />
New York requires schoolchildren to receive between 24 and 27 shots, <a href="https://www.health.ny.gov/publications/2370.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noopener" class="mycode_url">according</a> to the New York Department of Health (DOH) vaccine schedule. <br />
<br />
So far, three state-targeted Amish schools have racked up a total of &#36;118,000 in civil penalties. <br />
<br />
The attorney for the Amish explained to the New York Post that they could only pay if the state seized their land.  <br />
<br />
Up until 2019, the Empire State allowed religious exemptions for vaccines required for schoolchildren but rescinded those exemptions after a measles outbreak in an Orthodox Jewish community.<br />
<br />
“Have we gotten to a place where we aren’t going to make room for the Amish anymore?” plaintiff attorney Hiram Sasser asked.<br />
<br />
“When you think of Americana — apple pie, fireworks — the Amish are on that list. They’re part of the American fabric. They’re a good litmus test of our religious liberty and our tolerance,” Sasser told the <span style="font-style: italic;" class="mycode_i">Post</span>.<br />
<br />
“Watch ‘<span style="font-style: italic;" class="mycode_i">Little House on the Prairie</span>.’ It’s the one-room schoolhouse and Laura Ingalls Wilder teaching the kids. It’s a way of life that used to predominate across America, but the Amish are still holding on to it. We’ve acknowledged that as a nation and given them their space this whole time. And now that’s being tested,” Sasser said.<br />
<br />
“Hochul previously told a church congregation that those who refuse Big Pharma’s vaccines on religious grounds ‘aren’t listening to God and what God wants,’” Tucker Carlson’s Friday news brief <a href="https://tuckercarlson.com/august-28-2026-morning-note" target="_blank" rel="noopener" class="mycode_url">noted</a>.  <br />
<br />
“Who does she think she is?” he asked. <br />
<br />
Conservative online commentator Liz Churchill expressed similar shock and dismay over Gov. Hochul’s heavy-handedness.<br />
<br />
“Kathy Hochul’s New York State is fining the Amish over &#36;100,000 DOLLARS because of their tyrannical vaccine mandate. They’re legally abusing the only people in America who don’t bother anyone,” Churchill <a href="https://x.com/liz_churchill10/status/2093180499518689585" target="_blank" rel="noopener" class="mycode_url">wrote</a> on X. <br />
<br />
“Absolute Psychopath,” she added.<br />

<script async src="//platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script><br />
Hochul isn’t the only one condemning the Amish, who only want to be left alone from government overreach.<br />
<br />
“The religious exemption in New York State is made up. It’s fake. Because there is no religion that objects to vaccines,” New York Sen. James Skoufis is quoted as saying in the Amish’s petition to the U.S. Supreme Court.<br />
<br />
New York Assemblyman Jeffrey Dinowitz likewise objected to the notion of religious exemption, claiming, “It is just utter garbage.”<br />
<br />
“We, as a peace loving religious group, are sincerely sorry that we are causing the state a prob (sic). We are indeed grateful to the state of NY for the many privileges, freedoms, and protections they have blessed us with, for many years,” plaintiff Ezra Wengerd 55, wrote in a letter shared with reporters. <br />
<br />
“Our Almighty God wants us to fully put our faith and trust in Him. Which is in conflict to put our trust in vaccines. We are also commanded to not be conformed to this world,” he added.]]></description>

Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.<br />

<br />
Aug 26, 2026<br />
(<a href="https://www.lifesitenews.com/news/rfk-jr-confirms-this-vaccine-has-billions-of-aborted-baby-dna-pieces/" target="_blank" rel="noopener" class="mycode_url">LifeSiteNews</a>) — Health and Human Services (HHS) Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. slammed Pennsylvania Democratic Governor Josh Shapiro on Tuesday for denying religious exemptions to vaccines and also confirmed that aborted babies’ tissue was used in the creation of the measles, mumps, and rubella (MMR) vaccine.<br />
<br />
“At his press conference today, Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro accused me of promoting conspiracy theories because I told him, during an earlier telephone conversation, that some Americans had religious objections to the MMR vaccine because it contained fetal tissue. ‘There is no fetal tissue in the MMR,’ he told me,’” Kennedy <a href="https://x.com/RobertKennedyJr/status/2092441234581160251" target="_blank" rel="noopener" class="mycode_url">recounted</a> in a lengthy X post. <br />
<br />
“The rubella virus used in MMR-II is grown on the cultured cell line composed of lung tissue from an aborted three-month-old female embryo and listed as ‘WI-38 human diploid lung fibroblasts’ in the ingredients of MMR-II as portions of these cells end up in each vial of MMR II,” he noted.<br />
<br />
Kennedy included a clip from a <a href="https://thehighwire.com/ark-videos/aborted-fetal-tissue-in-vaccines/" target="_blank" rel="noopener" class="mycode_url">videotaped deposition</a> of Stanley Plotkin, inventor of the MMR vaccine, taken in 2018. The deposition was conducted by attorney Aaron Siri. <br />
<br />
During his testimony, Plotkin admitted to “butchering” 76 aborted babies – all of whom were over three months old – “in just one of the many studies that led to the development of his vaccine,” the HHS secretary said.<br />
<br />
Kennedy further noted that “approximately 646 billion pieces” of DNA from an aborted baby cell line are in every vial of the MMR-II vaccine.<br />
<br />
“In addition to the human DNA, there is also an unspecified amount of human cellular debris in each dose of MMR-II,” he said. <br />
<br />
When questioned, Plotkin said that he was cognizant of objections to the inclusion of aborted babies’ tissue in the development of vaccines, and the fact that they are actually part of the ingredients of vaccines.  <br />
<br />
“I’m aware of those objections,” said Plotkin, a self-described atheist. “The Catholic Church has actually issued a document on that which says that individuals who need the vaccines should receive the vaccines regardless of the fact.”<br />
<br />
“I think it implies that I am the individual who will go to hell because of the use of aborted tissues, which I am glad to do,” he declared.<br />
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-lang="en"><p lang="en" dir="ltr"><a href="https://x.com/RobertKennedyJr/status/2092441230852399327"></a></blockquote>
<script async src="//platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script><br />
Plotkin has served as a consultant for Big Pharma for decades on how to make their products. He admitted to Siri during the 2018 deposition that he used experimental vaccines on orphans and the mentally ill for testing purposes. <br />
<br />
During a December 2024 <a href="https://www.lifesitenews.com/news/tucker-carlson-shocked-after-learning-how-big-pharma-uses-tissue-of-aborted-babies-for-vaccines/" target="_blank" rel="noopener" class="mycode_url">interview</a> with Tucker Carlson, Siri told his stunned host that some childhood vaccines have “literally millions of pieces from the cultured cell line of an aborted fetus in every single injection’ and that vaccines are cultivated on ‘aborted fetal tissue’ that are ‘alive.’”<br />
<br />
Siri also took to social media on Wednesday to <a href="https://x.com/aaronsirisg/status/2092618473226522883" target="_blank" rel="noopener" class="mycode_url">back up</a> Kennedy’s response to Gov. Shapiro. <br />
<br />
“RFK Jr. is correct,” said Siri. “The fact is that there are billions of fragments of human cellular debris and DNA from the cultured cell line of an aborted fetus in every injected dose of MMR, chicken pox, and Hep A vaccines.”<br />
<br />
Siri then provided links to articles that chart the use of aborted fetal cell tissue in the development of vaccines.<br />
<br />
Kennedy pushed back on Pennsylvania governor’s lies:<br />
<blockquote class="mycode_quote"><cite>Quote:</cite>“During our phone conversation, Governor Shapiro also accused me of promoting vaccine misinformation. When I asked him for an example, he was unable to provide one, but this did not deter him from publicly repeating that accusation during his press event,” explained the HHS secretary. “As I told him, HHS does not tolerate misinformation by any employee. I offered to point to hundreds of instances of vaccine misinformation by the Biden administration about which I had never heard him complain.”</blockquote>
<br />
He continued: <br />
<blockquote class="mycode_quote"><cite>Quote:</cite>Governor Shapiro also faulted me for the decline in Pennsylvania vaccination rates from 97% – 93.2%. When I pushed back on this assertion, he acknowledged that most of the decline occurred during the Biden administration. It’s unfortunately true that the government lockdowns, deceptions, manipulation, and overreach during Covid severely damaged public faith in the vaccine program.<br />
<br />
Governor Shapiro’s press conference was an example of the same species of gaslighting.</blockquote>
<br />
Kennedy added that “The Trump administration is working to restore public trust not by gaslighting or manipulating, but by being truthful, at last, with the public.”<br />

Archbishop Thomas Wenski suggested that parents who seek religious exemptions for vaccines </div>
<div style="text-align: center;" class="mycode_align">– which are often made with aborted babies’ cells – should not be allowed to send their children to Catholic schools.<br />
<br />
<img src="https://www.lifesitenews.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/thomaswenski253-810x500.jpg" loading="lazy"  width="400" height="250" alt="[Image: thomaswenski253-810x500.jpg]" class="mycode_img" /><br />
<br />
Archbishop Thomas Wenski<br />
Joe Raedle / Staff / Getty</div>
<br />
Aug 18, 2026<br />
(<a href="https://www.lifesitenews.com/news/florida-archbishop-tells-state-that-catholic-schools-will-continue-to-mandate-vaccines/" target="_blank" rel="noopener" class="mycode_url">LifeSiteNews</a> - [slightly adapted - not all hyperlinks included from original]) — A Florida archbishop said that Catholic schools should not allow for religious exemptions to vaccination in defiance of the state attorney general’s warning that Catholic schools may be barred from state-funded scholarships.<br />
<br />
Earlier this month, Republican state Attorney General, James Uthmeier, a Catholic, wrote a letter to the Florida Conference of Catholic Bishops advising them that schools must provide under Florida law religious exemptions from vaccination requirements if a parent has a religious objection to a vaccine. He warned them that Catholic schools may be disqualified from state-funded scholarships and vouchers due to their denial of vaccine religious exemptions.<br />
<br />
On Monday, Archbishop Thomas Wenski of Miami published an op-ed in the<span style="font-style: italic;" class="mycode_i"> Miami Herald </span>in which he ironically insisted that Uthmeier’s challenge to their policy “intrudes upon our religious freedom.”<br />
<br />
“The state cannot disqualify Catholic schools from the scholarship program merely because a state official’s understanding of Church teachings differ from that of the bishops,” Wenski wrote. He maintained, however, that a Catholic school may disqualify a student from admission because their understanding of Church teachings differs from that of the bishops.<br />
<br />
Wenski claimed that Catholic schools do not grant religious exemptions for student vaccinations “because the vaccines as presently developed and administered do not violate Church teachings.” <br />
<br />
Some Catholics oppose the use of certain vaccines on moral grounds because they were <a href="https://lozierinstitute.org/update-covid-19-vaccine-candidates-and-abortion-derived-cell-lines/" target="_blank" rel="noopener" class="mycode_url">developed using cell lines derived from the tissue of aborted babies</a>. The National Catholic Bioethics Center (NCBC) teaches that Catholics have a “general moral duty to refuse the use of medical products, including certain vaccines, that are produced using human cells lines derived from direct abortions” as part of its <a href="https://www.ncbcenter.org/ncbc-news/vaccineletter" target="_blank" rel="noopener" class="mycode_url">Vaccine Exemption Template Letter</a>.<br />
<br />
Uthmeier has pointed out that, because abortion violates the right to life of the unborn, “the Catholic Church has historically encouraged the faithful to abstain from the use of vaccines produced from aborted fetal tissue, while at the same time recognizing the moral permissibility of using such vaccines in certain circumstances.”<br />
<br />
Several vaccines required for school entry are developed using aborted babies’ tissue. Rubella-containing vaccines were developed using the WI-38 cell line; chickenpox vaccines were developed using cell lines derived from aborted babies, including WI-38 and MRC-5; and the viruses of Hepatitis A vaccines can be grown in these baby cell lines. The Florida Department of Health currently lists two doses of MMR and two doses of chickenpox vaccines among the routine school immunization requirements.<br />
<br />
According to Wenski, parents who desire vaccine religious exemptions due to the use of aborted babies’ tissue in their development should simply not be permitted to attend Catholic schools.<br />
<br />
“The Church does not force or coerce parents to vaccinate their child. No one must go to a Catholic school,” the archbishop wrote. “At the same time, we do try to accommodate those children whose physician indicates that a medical exemption is necessary.”<br />
<br />
As Uthmeier noted, the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith has stated that “practical reason makes evident that vaccination is not, as a general rule, a moral obligation.”<br />
<br />
“But even if abortion-derived vaccines may be permissible to take, Church teaching also recognizes that no one should be forced to take a vaccine ‘if it would violate the sanctity of his or her conscience,’” Uthmeier added in his letter.<br />
<br />
Wenski was the first U.S. bishop to publicly receive a COVID-19 shot. After the COVID-19 outbreak, he posted to his Instagram account two pictures of himself receiving the abortion-tainted Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 shot. The Pfizer shot was tested on the cells of aborted babies.<br />
<br />
There are compelling moral arguments being presented by bishops and priests as to why it is morally illicit to receive a vaccine connected to the use of aborted children’s tissue.<br />

Dr. Copenhagen points out that the human remains involved in vaccines have likewise been desecrated through exploitation and trafficking, that “labeling human remains obtained through violence as ‘illicit biological material’ is not only insufficient but dehumanizing and offensive.”<br />

Aug 18, 2026<br />
(<a href="https://www.lifesitenews.com/news/florida-archbishop-tells-state-that-catholic-schools-will-continue-to-mandate-vaccines/" target="_blank" rel="noopener" class="mycode_url">LifeSiteNews</a> - [slightly adapted - not all hyperlinks included from original]) — A Florida archbishop said that Catholic schools should not allow for religious exemptions to vaccination in defiance of the state attorney general’s warning that Catholic schools may be barred from state-funded scholarships.<br />
<br />
Earlier this month, Republican state Attorney General, James Uthmeier, a Catholic, wrote a letter to the Florida Conference of Catholic Bishops advising them that schools must provide under Florida law religious exemptions from vaccination requirements if a parent has a religious objection to a vaccine. He warned them that Catholic schools may be disqualified from state-funded scholarships and vouchers due to their denial of vaccine religious exemptions.<br />
<br />
On Monday, Archbishop Thomas Wenski of Miami published an op-ed in the<span style="font-style: italic;" class="mycode_i"> Miami Herald </span>in which he ironically insisted that Uthmeier’s challenge to their policy “intrudes upon our religious freedom.”<br />
<br />
“The state cannot disqualify Catholic schools from the scholarship program merely because a state official’s understanding of Church teachings differ from that of the bishops,” Wenski wrote. He maintained, however, that a Catholic school may disqualify a student from admission because their understanding of Church teachings differs from that of the bishops.<br />
<br />
Wenski claimed that Catholic schools do not grant religious exemptions for student vaccinations “because the vaccines as presently developed and administered do not violate Church teachings.” <br />
<br />

<br />
Assistant professor Brian Hie, pictured on the left with a colleague, said of the work "this was new territory for us"</div>
<br />
<br />
<a href="https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c5y3j3ngevmo" target="_blank" rel="noopener" class="mycode_url">BBC</a> | August 6, 2026<br />
<br />
<br />
Artificial Intelligence has been used to design brand new viruses that are fully functional and can replicate in the laboratory, say US researchers.<br />
<br />
It is the first time whole genomes have been successfully designed by AI.<br />
<br />
The resulting 16 novel viruses were created to infect bacteria and pose no threat to people.<br />
<br />
The breakthrough has been labelled a "very significant turning point" in science that could unlock a new era for treating disease. But experts have also warned AI-designed viruses raise "urgent" safety and security concerns.<br />
<br />
AI tools are rapidly advancing and have already been used to design new antibiotics.<br />
<br />
But that is relatively simple compared with designing a new viable virus from scratch.<br />
<br />
"This is a next step in the complexity that's designable by generative AI, this is the first time generative AI has been used to design a complete genome, it's something that can replicate and have other functions inside cells… this was new territory for us," Brian Hie, assistant professor at Stanford University, told the BBC.<br />
<br />
The technology works similarly to large language models, like ChatGPT, which predict sequences of text.<br />
<br />
In this instance the AI models, known as Evo1 and Evo2, predict the language of life rather than words.<br />
<br />
The AI models were trained on genetic codes from viruses, bacteria, plants and people.<br />
<br />
They were then refined to produce a type of virus, known as a bacteriophage, which infect only specific species of bacteria.<br />
<br />
The AI models were trained on genetic codes from viruses, bacteria, plants and people<br />
<br />
The Stanford researchers picked the most promising 302 AI designs and synthesised them in the lab. Of these, 16 proved effective at killing E. coli bacteria.<br />
<br />
Samuel King, a PhD student in the lab, said they realised the phage were working in the early hours of the morning.<br />
<br />
The phage were placed on petri dishes growing a layer of bacteria on them and the scientists waited for signs their new viruses were enjoying the feast.<br />
<br />
"We were starting to see these clear spots and it was just extremely exciting," says King. When the results were shared with the wider team "the room spontaneously burst into applause", Hie recalls.<br />
<br />
Developing new phage could lead to new ways of treating infections that have become resistant to antibiotics.<br />
<br />
Phage therapy is seen as a potential solution to the rising tide of bacterial infections that cannot be treated with antibiotics<br />
But the breakthrough also points to the ability of AI to design new biology that goes beyond the natural world – what is known as synthetic biology.<br />
<br />
Hie argues this has the potential to "massively improve human health" by developing new drugs and therapies.<br />
<br />
But concerns have already been raised that the same technology could be used maliciously to create new diseases.<br />
<br />
In a commentary accompanying the publication in the journal Science, Dr Thomas Inglesby and Dr Moritz Hanke from the Center for Health Security at Johns Hopkins University wrote that the findings raise "urgent biosafety and biosecurity questions".<br />
<br />
They said it was no longer a question of "whether generative viral genome design will exist" but whether it can be used without "enabling serious harm".<br />
<br />
For example, they said new viruses with the potential to cause disease "should not be pursued".<br />
<br />
The researchers themselves took steps to maximise safety. They excluded viruses that could infect complex organisms from the training database, performed the research on phage rather than viruses that infect people and it all took place in a secure laboratory.<br />
<br />
Hie argues even existing safeguards go a long way towards "ensuring that the technology is used for good".<br />
<br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b">From computers bits to atoms</span><br />
<br />
Viruses are not alive and it would take another significant leap for AI to generate living organisms.<br />
<br />
The genetic code of the phage is around 5,400 base pairs (letters) long. The smallest genome of a living cell is around 500,000 base pairs. The human genome is three billion base pairs.<br />
<br />
Hie says "it would probably be a lot of work, but not impossible" to attempt some simple organisms and they were "definitely interested in working towards" that.<br />
<br />
Prof Marc Güell, from the synthetic biology lab at Pompeu Fabra University in Spain, said the study was a "very significant turning point" because for the "first time in history, we are beginning to design biology on a computer".<br />
<br />
He said it "allows us to dream of exciting possibilities for tackling humanity's greatest challenges" such as developing phages to tackle disease, enzymes to treat genetic disorders and antibodies that could be used in immunotherapy.<br />
<br />
Prof Patrick Cai, chair of synthetic genomics at the Manchester Institute of Biotechnology, said the study was an "important milestone".<br />
<br />
"The significance extends far beyond phages – it suggests that genome language models are beginning to learn the design principles encoded by evolution, opening the door to AI-assisted genome writing."]]></description>

Mar 23, 2026<br />
(<a href="https://www.lifesitenews.com/news/bills-in-3-states-would-declare-covid-shots-weapons-of-mass-destruction/" target="_blank" rel="noopener" class="mycode_url">LifeSiteNews</a> [adapted - not all hyperlinks from original included below]) — Three U.S. states – Minnesota, Arizona, and Tennessee – have now introduced legislation designating COVID-19 mRNA injections as “Biological Weapons of Mass Destruction.” <br />
<br />
Last year, Minnesota was the first to propose a law criminalizing mRNA jabs, followed by Arizona earlier this year and now Tennessee. Idaho, Iowa, Montana, South Carolina and Tennessee had previously sought to restrict the use of mRNA technology. <br />
<br />
“As all of these declarations mount, it’s only a matter of time before these injections become outlawed,” <a href="https://x.com/nichulscher/status/2035390422885769456" target="_blank" rel="noopener" class="mycode_url">predicted Nicolas Hulscher</a>, MPH, epidemiologist and administrator at the McCullough Foundation, in a recent podcast.  <br />
<br />
Hulscher noted that if the Arizona bill gets enacted into law, “Possessing, distributing, or manufacturing these shots will constitute terrorism-related charges and life imprisonment.”<br />
<br />
“And rightfully so,” he added, “given that these shots have killed, injured, and disabled millions upon millions of people across the globe, rivaling hundreds of Hiroshima nuclear attacks.”<br />
<br />
Hulscher has previously asserted that the “COVID-19 mRNA Injections violate the Biological Weapons Convention, Nuremberg Code, Helsinki Declaration, and U.S. Constitution.”<br />
<br />
The Minnesota bill clearly states, “It is the intent of the legislature to designate mRNA injections and products as weapons of mass destruction.”<br />
<br />
Tennessee’s bill, known as the “mRNA Bioweapons Prohibition Act,” which was introduced last week, prohibits “the manufacture, acquisition, possession, or making accessible to others of mRNA injections and products; requires state and local government officials to use all lawful means necessary to investigate or enforce suspected violations; punishes violations the same as manufacturing, acquiring, possessing, or transferring a weapon of mass destruction, which is a Class B felony.”<br />
<br />
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-lang="en"><p lang="en" dir="ltr"><a href="https://twitter.com/NicHulscher/status/2035390422885769456"></a></blockquote>
<script async src="//platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script><br />
<span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b">mRNA vaccines ‘were never safe nor effective’</span><br />
<br />
mRNA-based injections instruct human cells to produce a genetically engineered version of coronavirus “spike protein” in order to trigger an immune system response.<br />
<br />
Developers of the mRNA vaccines failed to foresee that, once inside the body, the repeated development of the spike proteins can’t be controlled. For some recipients of the vaccines, their bodies became a human factory for the production of the spike protein, able to travel via the bloodstream from the injection site to their entire body, including major organs, the brain, liver, spleen, bone marrow, and reproductive organs.<br />
<br />
As the immune system does its job attacking the cells it recognizes as “infected” due to the presence of the spike proteins, it attacks those organs and tissues, causing inflammation, myocarditis, and grotesque blood clots. <br />
<br />
<span style="font-style: italic;" class="mycode_i">LifeSiteNews </span>reported last fall that more than 81,000 physicians, scientists, researchers, and concerned citizens, 240 elected government officials, and 17 professional public health and physician organizations have demanded withdrawal of the COVID-19 shots from the market.  <br />
<br />
The total number of COVID-19 shot deaths reported to VAERS-adjusted deaths exceeds 589,000 in the U.S. and 17 million around the globe.]]></description>

Hulscher noted that if the Arizona bill gets enacted into law, “Possessing, distributing, or manufacturing these shots will constitute terrorism-related charges and life imprisonment.”<br />
<br />
“And rightfully so,” he added, “given that these shots have killed, injured, and disabled millions upon millions of people across the globe, rivaling hundreds of Hiroshima nuclear attacks.”<br />
<br />
Hulscher has previously asserted that the “COVID-19 mRNA Injections violate the Biological Weapons Convention, Nuremberg Code, Helsinki Declaration, and U.S. Constitution.”<br />
<br />
The Minnesota bill clearly states, “It is the intent of the legislature to designate mRNA injections and products as weapons of mass destruction.”<br />
<br />
Tennessee’s bill, known as the “mRNA Bioweapons Prohibition Act,” which was introduced last week, prohibits “the manufacture, acquisition, possession, or making accessible to others of mRNA injections and products; requires state and local government officials to use all lawful means necessary to investigate or enforce suspected violations; punishes violations the same as manufacturing, acquiring, possessing, or transferring a weapon of mass destruction, which is a Class B felony.”<br />
<br />

<span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b">mRNA vaccines ‘were never safe nor effective’</span><br />
<br />
mRNA-based injections instruct human cells to produce a genetically engineered version of coronavirus “spike protein” in order to trigger an immune system response.<br />
<br />
Developers of the mRNA vaccines failed to foresee that, once inside the body, the repeated development of the spike proteins can’t be controlled. For some recipients of the vaccines, their bodies became a human factory for the production of the spike protein, able to travel via the bloodstream from the injection site to their entire body, including major organs, the brain, liver, spleen, bone marrow, and reproductive organs.<br />
<br />
As the immune system does its job attacking the cells it recognizes as “infected” due to the presence of the spike proteins, it attacks those organs and tissues, causing inflammation, myocarditis, and grotesque blood clots. <br />
<br />
<span style="font-style: italic;" class="mycode_i">LifeSiteNews </span>reported last fall that more than 81,000 physicians, scientists, researchers, and concerned citizens, 240 elected government officials, and 17 professional public health and physician organizations have demanded withdrawal of the COVID-19 shots from the market.  <br />
<br />
The total number of COVID-19 shot deaths reported to VAERS-adjusted deaths exceeds 589,000 in the U.S. and 17 million around the globe.]]></content:encoded>

Apr 30, 2025<br />
(<a href="https://www.lifesitenews.com/news/scientists-working-on-mrna-shots-for-every-imaginable-infectious-disease-researcher-claims/" target="_blank" rel="noopener" class="mycode_url">LifeSiteNews</a>) — A Nobel Prize-winning researcher who contributed to mRNA technology has said the gene therapy platform is being explored for “every imaginable infectious disease,” raising health concerns due to the dangers of mRNA shots.<br />
<br />
Attorney Tom Renz recently <a href="https://x.com/toobaffled/status/1913543184707379296" target="_blank" rel="noopener" class="mycode_url">warned</a> that “all the childhood vaccines are going to be gene therapies” and that mRNA is now being integrated “into every vaccine out there,” although LifeSiteNews has not heard back from Renz after inquiring into his claim.<br />
<br />
However, PennMedicine’s <a href="https://www.pennmedicine.org/providers/profile/drew-weissman" target="_blank" rel="noopener" class="mycode_url">Dr. Drew Weissmann</a>, who was jointly awarded with Dr. Katalin Karikó the 2023 Nobel Prize in Medicine for contributing to the modified mRNA technology of Pfizer and Moderna’s COVID “vaccines,” has said regarding this technology, “We’re working on every imaginable infectious disease.”<br />
<br />
In addition, when presented with this prediction by Renz, Dr. Peter McCullough pointed <span style="font-style: italic;" class="mycode_i">LifeSiteNews </span>to a <a href="https://www.modernatx.com/en-US/research/product-pipeline" target="_blank" rel="noopener" class="mycode_url">pipeline</a> of many mRNA so-called “vaccines” in development by Moderna. McCullough responded, “Yes, Moderna is one of many mRNA companies with an extensive portfolio of vaccines in development.”<br />
<br />
The pharmaceutical company, which produced one of the most widely used mRNA COVID injections – and according to Open VAERS, the <a href="https://openvaers.com/covid-data/vaccine-lots" target="_blank" rel="noopener" class="mycode_url">deadliest</a> – is now working on a variety of mRNA “vaccines” for the flu, RSV, new variants of COVID, HIV, EBV, Lyme disease, Monkeypox, and many other viruses and diseases, including cancer.<br />
<br />
PennMedicine has also <a href="https://www.pennmedicine.org/mrna" target="_blank" rel="noopener" class="mycode_url">listed</a> a wide range of diseases for which mRNA injections are being studied or developed, including “all coronaviruses,” avian bird flu, malaria, genetic diseases, heart attacks, and neurodevelopmental disorders. <br />
<br />
This is alarming considering the dangerous track record of mRNA injections. The U.S. federal government’s Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS), which historically has recorded only a small fraction of vaccine injuries, has as of March 28 reported 38,541 deaths from the COVID shots, higher <a href="https://openvaers.com/covid-data/mortality" target="_blank" rel="noopener" class="mycode_url">by far</a> than those reported for any other vaccines since 1990. A total of 1,662,426 adverse events from the COVID shots have also been reported to VAERS.<br />
<br />
The Pfizer and Moderna COVID shots, which accounted for most injections, are distinguished from traditional vaccines by their mRNA technology, which did not come to market before the COVID outbreak largely due to safety concerns. In fact, as of May 2020, only one of Moderna’s mRNA candidates had passed Phase 1 trials, and <span style="font-style: italic;" class="mycode_i">StatNews</span> <a href="https://www.statnews.com/2016/09/13/moderna-therapeutics-biotech-mrna/" target="_blank" rel="noopener" class="mycode_url">had noted</a> in 2016 that mRNA-based treatments are “highly risky,” and that “(b)ig pharma companies had tried similar work and abandoned it because it’s exceedingly hard to get RNA into cells without triggering nasty side effects.”<br />
<br />
“Novartis abandoned the related realm of RNA interference over concerns about toxicity, as did Merck and Roche,” <span style="font-style: italic;" class="mycode_i">StatNews </span>continued.<br />
<br />
The dangers of mRNA shots are so well documented that 11 states have thus far <a href="https://www.lifesitenews.com/news/minnesota-becomes-11th-state-to-pursue-ban-on-use-of-mrna-based-vaccines/" target="_blank" rel="noopener" class="mycode_url">pursued</a> bans on them.<br />
<br />
The mRNA COVID shots are theoretically supposed to work by injecting genetic mRNA material in the body that instructs cells to produce an antigen that in turn triggers an immune response. In the case of the COVID shots, this antigen is a spike protein, to which many doctors and researchers are attributing toxic effects of the mRNA shots.<br />
<br />
Doctors, including surgeon and cancer drug inventor Dr. Patrick Soon-Shiong, <a href="https://www.lifesitenews.com/news/covid-virus-vaccines-are-driving-explosion-in-cancer-billionaire-scientist-tells-tucker-carlson/" target="_blank" rel="noopener" class="mycode_url">have explained</a> that these spike proteins are inflammatory and attach to blood vessels with ACE-2 receptors found all throughout the body. <br />
<br />
The toxic effects of spike proteins appear to be confirmed by Yale University scientists, who in February published a study linking post-COVID shot illness (“post-vaccination syndrome”) to distinct biomarkers, including elevated levels of circulating spike protein.<br />
<br />
One of the concerns regarding mRNA technology is that it appears to produce inflammatory, symptom-inducing antigens indefinitely, at least in the case of the COVID shots. A practicing physician and Substack writer known as <span style="font-style: italic;" class="mycode_i">The Midwestern Doctor</span> <a href="https://www.midwesterndoctor.com/p/what-weve-learned-from-a-year-of" target="_blank" rel="noopener" class="mycode_url">has pointed out</a> that numerous studies show that after a COVID shot, spike protein production in the blood peaks, “and then declines but never reaches zero and appears to continue for months afterward.”<br />
<br />
Despite the dangers of mRNA “vaccines,” they are being pushed by some of the most influential men in America, like Oracle chairman Larry Ellison, who <a href="https://www.lifesitenews.com/news/ai-ceo-says-trump-stargate-partnership-could-lead-to-personalized-mrna-cancer-vaccines/" target="_blank" rel="noopener" class="mycode_url">has suggested</a> AI could be used to rapidly develop new mRNA-based vaccines personalized for individual patients.]]></description>

However, PennMedicine’s <a href="https://www.pennmedicine.org/providers/profile/drew-weissman" target="_blank" rel="noopener" class="mycode_url">Dr. Drew Weissmann</a>, who was jointly awarded with Dr. Katalin Karikó the 2023 Nobel Prize in Medicine for contributing to the modified mRNA technology of Pfizer and Moderna’s COVID “vaccines,” has said regarding this technology, “We’re working on every imaginable infectious disease.”<br />
<br />
In addition, when presented with this prediction by Renz, Dr. Peter McCullough pointed <span style="font-style: italic;" class="mycode_i">LifeSiteNews </span>to a <a href="https://www.modernatx.com/en-US/research/product-pipeline" target="_blank" rel="noopener" class="mycode_url">pipeline</a> of many mRNA so-called “vaccines” in development by Moderna. McCullough responded, “Yes, Moderna is one of many mRNA companies with an extensive portfolio of vaccines in development.”<br />
<br />
The pharmaceutical company, which produced one of the most widely used mRNA COVID injections – and according to Open VAERS, the <a href="https://openvaers.com/covid-data/vaccine-lots" target="_blank" rel="noopener" class="mycode_url">deadliest</a> – is now working on a variety of mRNA “vaccines” for the flu, RSV, new variants of COVID, HIV, EBV, Lyme disease, Monkeypox, and many other viruses and diseases, including cancer.<br />
<br />
PennMedicine has also <a href="https://www.pennmedicine.org/mrna" target="_blank" rel="noopener" class="mycode_url">listed</a> a wide range of diseases for which mRNA injections are being studied or developed, including “all coronaviruses,” avian bird flu, malaria, genetic diseases, heart attacks, and neurodevelopmental disorders. <br />
<br />
This is alarming considering the dangerous track record of mRNA injections. The U.S. federal government’s Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS), which historically has recorded only a small fraction of vaccine injuries, has as of March 28 reported 38,541 deaths from the COVID shots, higher <a href="https://openvaers.com/covid-data/mortality" target="_blank" rel="noopener" class="mycode_url">by far</a> than those reported for any other vaccines since 1990. A total of 1,662,426 adverse events from the COVID shots have also been reported to VAERS.<br />
<br />
The Pfizer and Moderna COVID shots, which accounted for most injections, are distinguished from traditional vaccines by their mRNA technology, which did not come to market before the COVID outbreak largely due to safety concerns. In fact, as of May 2020, only one of Moderna’s mRNA candidates had passed Phase 1 trials, and <span style="font-style: italic;" class="mycode_i">StatNews</span> <a href="https://www.statnews.com/2016/09/13/moderna-therapeutics-biotech-mrna/" target="_blank" rel="noopener" class="mycode_url">had noted</a> in 2016 that mRNA-based treatments are “highly risky,” and that “(b)ig pharma companies had tried similar work and abandoned it because it’s exceedingly hard to get RNA into cells without triggering nasty side effects.”<br />
<br />
“Novartis abandoned the related realm of RNA interference over concerns about toxicity, as did Merck and Roche,” <span style="font-style: italic;" class="mycode_i">StatNews </span>continued.<br />
<br />
The dangers of mRNA shots are so well documented that 11 states have thus far <a href="https://www.lifesitenews.com/news/minnesota-becomes-11th-state-to-pursue-ban-on-use-of-mrna-based-vaccines/" target="_blank" rel="noopener" class="mycode_url">pursued</a> bans on them.<br />
<br />
The mRNA COVID shots are theoretically supposed to work by injecting genetic mRNA material in the body that instructs cells to produce an antigen that in turn triggers an immune response. In the case of the COVID shots, this antigen is a spike protein, to which many doctors and researchers are attributing toxic effects of the mRNA shots.<br />
<br />
Doctors, including surgeon and cancer drug inventor Dr. Patrick Soon-Shiong, <a href="https://www.lifesitenews.com/news/covid-virus-vaccines-are-driving-explosion-in-cancer-billionaire-scientist-tells-tucker-carlson/" target="_blank" rel="noopener" class="mycode_url">have explained</a> that these spike proteins are inflammatory and attach to blood vessels with ACE-2 receptors found all throughout the body. <br />
<br />
The toxic effects of spike proteins appear to be confirmed by Yale University scientists, who in February published a study linking post-COVID shot illness (“post-vaccination syndrome”) to distinct biomarkers, including elevated levels of circulating spike protein.<br />
<br />
One of the concerns regarding mRNA technology is that it appears to produce inflammatory, symptom-inducing antigens indefinitely, at least in the case of the COVID shots. A practicing physician and Substack writer known as <span style="font-style: italic;" class="mycode_i">The Midwestern Doctor</span> <a href="https://www.midwesterndoctor.com/p/what-weve-learned-from-a-year-of" target="_blank" rel="noopener" class="mycode_url">has pointed out</a> that numerous studies show that after a COVID shot, spike protein production in the blood peaks, “and then declines but never reaches zero and appears to continue for months afterward.”<br />
<br />
Despite the dangers of mRNA “vaccines,” they are being pushed by some of the most influential men in America, like Oracle chairman Larry Ellison, who <a href="https://www.lifesitenews.com/news/ai-ceo-says-trump-stargate-partnership-could-lead-to-personalized-mrna-cancer-vaccines/" target="_blank" rel="noopener" class="mycode_url">has suggested</a> AI could be used to rapidly develop new mRNA-based vaccines personalized for individual patients.]]></content:encoded>

<br />
The World Health Organization (WHO) has been scheming to finalize the Pandemic Treaty to ensure global cohesion during the next pandemic. Over 190 member nations have agreed to surrender sovereignty in the name of public health, permitting an unelected organization of individuals to detail how they will respond to the next round of government imposed biological warfare.<br />
<br />
WHO Director General Dr. Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, who is not a medical doctor but a Klaus Schwab appointee, declared this as a global victory. Interestingly, Schwab resigned as soon as the treaty was finalized. “The nations of the world made history in Geneva today,” Tedros declared. “In reaching consensus on the Pandemic Agreement, not only did they put in place a generational accord to make the world safer, they have also demonstrated that multilateralism is alive and well, and that in our divided world, nations can still work together to find common ground, and a shared response to shared threats.<br />

<br />
The <a href="https://www.who.int/health-topics/one-health#tab=tab_1" target="_blank" rel="noopener" class="mycode_url">One Health</a> approach defines this treaty, which vaguely recognizes that all life on this planet is connected and therefore, under their rationale, requires a unified approach to problems. The WHO cooperates with the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO), the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP), and the World Organization for Animal Health (WOAH) to form the “Quadripartite” partnership that aims to promote the One Health agenda. The One Health High-Level Expert Panel (OHHLEP), controlled by the WHO, provides “the science” to guide all mandates.<br />
<br />
This treaty provides a group of unelected officials with immense power. There are new financial terms outlined under the new treaty. Manufacturers producing pandemic-related products now must allocate 10% of production to the WHO at no cost, and they must deduce costs by 10% for the WHO as well. Members already pay annual fees to the WHO, but they will now be required to pool funding into a centralized financial mechanism (CFM).<br />
<br />
Governments and international organizations will be expected to pay into the CFM. Developed nations will be forced to pay for others as each member has “common but differentiated responsibilities” based on GDP. However, there are discussions that private entities may also be forced to pay to ensure financial preparedness. The funds will be allocated at the direction of the unelected officials at the Quadripartite.<br />
<br />
The WHO ensured that there was no transparency during COVID-19. The organization continually protected China at the direction of the Chinese Communist Party, despite the United States being the top donor to the organization. The White House has finally dispelled the COVID narrative perpetuated by “the science” and unelected organizations. They can and will do this again.<br />
<br />
As noted by the <a href="https://www.whitehouse.gov/lab-leak-true-origins-of-covid-19/" target="_blank" rel="noopener" class="mycode_url">White House</a>:<br />
<br />
<span style="text-decoration: underline;" class="mycode_u">Social Distancing</span>: The “6 feet apart” social distancing recommendation — which shut down schools and small business across the country — was arbitrary and not based on science. During closed door testimony, Dr. Fauci testified that the guidance “sort of just appeared.”<br />
<br />
<span style="text-decoration: underline;" class="mycode_u">Mask Mandates</span>: There was no conclusive evidence that masks effectively protected Americans from COVID-19. Public health officials flipped-flopped on the efficacy of masks without providing Americans scientific data — causing a massive uptick in public distrust.<br />
<br />
<span style="text-decoration: underline;" class="mycode_u">Lockdowns</span>: Prolonged lockdowns caused immeasurable harm to not only the American economy, but also to the mental and physical health of Americans, with a particularly negative effect on younger citizens. Rather than prioritizing the protection of the most vulnerable populations, federal and state government policies forced millions of Americans to forgo crucial elements of a healthy and financially sound life.<br />
<br />
<span style="text-decoration: underline;" class="mycode_u">The World Health Organization</span>: The WHO’s response to the COVID-19 pandemic was an abject failure because it caved to pressure from the Chinese Communist Party and placed China’s political interests ahead of its international duties. Further, the WHO’s newest effort to solve the problems exacerbated by the COVID-19 pandemic — via a “Pandemic Treaty” — may harm the United States.<br />
<br />
<span style="text-decoration: underline;" class="mycode_u">COVID-19 Misinformation</span>: Public health officials often mislead the American people through conflicting messaging, knee-jerk reactions, and a lack of transparency.  Most egregiously,  the federal government demonized alternative treatments and disfavored narratives, such as the lab leak theory,  in a shameful effort to coerce and control the American people’s health decisions.<br />
<br />
When those efforts failed, the Biden Administration resorted to “outright censorship—coercing and colluding with the world’s largest social media companies to censor all COVID-19-related dissent.”<br />

<br />
Not a single person has been held responsible for one of the worst humanitarian crises in history. The now former chair of the World Economic Forum, Klaus Schwab, repeatedly stated that the pandemic would provide an opportunity for a Great Reset where one global entity will reign supreme. The WEF partnered with Bill Gates to co-host EVENT 201—a mock trial for the COVID-19 pandemic, one year before it began. The world is a stage, and we are the puppets that they control. The WHO was not directly involved in Event 201; however, Bill Gates is now the WHO’s primary donor, following the US’s departure.<br />
<br />
The WHO requires a 12-month waiting period before a country can formally be removed from the alliance under the WHO Constitution. Donald Trump withdrew on January 20, 2025, with WHO membership officially ending on January 23, 2026. The disease cycle has honed in on 2026 as a major event. I am not saying that Disease X, the next pandemic outlined by the WHO, will occur before that timeframe, but the correlations are undeniable.]]></description>

<br />
NEW YORK — U.S. public health officials have been told to stop working with the World Health Organization, effective immediately.<br />
<br />
A U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention official, John Nkengasong, sent a memo to senior leaders at the agency on Sunday night telling them that all staff who work with the WHO must immediately stop their collaborations and “await further guidance.”<br />
<br />
Experts said the sudden stoppage was a surprise and would set back work on investigating and trying to stop outbreaks of Marburg virus and mpox in Africa, as well as brewing global threats. It also comes as health authorities around the world are monitoring bird flu outbreaks among U.S. livestock.<br />
<br />
The Associated Press viewed a copy of Nkengasong’s memo, which said the stop-work policy applied to “all CDC staff engaging with WHO through technical working groups, coordinating centers, advisory boards, cooperative agreements or other means — in person or virtual.” It also says CDC staff are not allowed to visit WHO offices.<br />
<br />
President Donald Trump last week issued an executive order to begin the process of withdrawing the U.S. from WHO, but that did not take immediate effect. Leaving WHO requires the approval of Congress and that the U.S. meets its financial obligations for the current fiscal year. The U.S. also must provide a one-year notice.<br />
<br />
His administration also told federal health agencies to stop most communications with the public through at least the end of the month.<br />
<br />
“Stopping communications and meetings with WHO is a big problem,” said Dr. Jeffrey Klausner, a University of Southern California public health expert who collaborates with WHO on work against sexually transmitted infections.<br />
<br />
“People thought there would be a slow withdrawal. This has really caught everyone with their pants down,” said Klausner, who said he learned of it from someone at CDC.<br />
<br />
“Talking to WHO is a two-way street,” he added, noting that the two agencies benefit from each other’s expertise. The collaboration allows the U.S. to learn about new tests, new treatments and emerging outbreaks — information “which can help us protect Americans abroad and at home,” Klausner said.<br />
<br />
The CDC details nearly 30 people to WHO and sends many millions of dollars to it through cooperative agreements. The U.S. agency also has some of the world’s leading experts in infectious diseases and public health threats, and the two agencies’ staffers are in daily contact about health dangers and how to stop them.<br />
<br />
The collaboration halt isn’t the only global health effect of Trump’s executive orders. Last week, the president froze spending on another critical program, PEPFAR or the President’s Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief.<br />
<br />
The anti-HIV program is credited with saving 25 million lives, including those of 5.5 million children, since it was started by Republican President George W. Bush. It was included in a Trump administration freeze on foreign aid spending slated to last at least three months.<br />
<br />
PEPFAR provides HIV medication to more than 20 million people “and stopping its funding essential stops their HIV treatment,” International AIDS Society President Beatriz Grinsztejn said in a statement. “If that happens, people are going to die and HIV will resurge.”<br />
<br />
A U.S. health official confirmed that the CDC was stopping its work with WHO. The person was not authorized to talk about the memo and spoke on condition of anonymity.<br />
<br />
A WHO spokesperson referred questions about the withdrawal to U.S. officials.<br />
<br />
Officials at the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services didn’t immediately respond to an emailed request for comment. And CDC officials didn’t respond to the AP’s request to speak with Nkengasong about the memo.]]></description>

Leaving WHO requires the approval of Congress and that the U.S. meets its financial obligations for the current fiscal year. The U.S. also must provide a one-year notice.<br />
<br />
His administration also told federal health agencies to stop most communications with the public through at least the end of the month.<br />
<br />
“Stopping communications and meetings with WHO is a big problem,” said Dr. Jeffrey Klausner, a University of Southern California public health expert who collaborates with WHO on work against sexually transmitted infections.<br />
<br />
“People thought there would be a slow withdrawal. This has really caught everyone with their pants down,” said Klausner, who said he learned of it from someone at CDC.<br />
<br />
“Talking to WHO is a two-way street,” he added, noting that the two agencies benefit from each other’s expertise. The collaboration allows the U.S. to learn about new tests, new treatments and emerging outbreaks — information “which can help us protect Americans abroad and at home,” Klausner said.<br />
<br />
The CDC details nearly 30 people to WHO and sends many millions of dollars to it through cooperative agreements. The U.S. agency also has some of the world’s leading experts in infectious diseases and public health threats, and the two agencies’ staffers are in daily contact about health dangers and how to stop them.<br />
<br />
The collaboration halt isn’t the only global health effect of Trump’s executive orders. Last week, the president froze spending on another critical program, PEPFAR or the President’s Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief.<br />
<br />
The anti-HIV program is credited with saving 25 million lives, including those of 5.5 million children, since it was started by Republican President George W. Bush. It was included in a Trump administration freeze on foreign aid spending slated to last at least three months.<br />
<br />
PEPFAR provides HIV medication to more than 20 million people “and stopping its funding essential stops their HIV treatment,” International AIDS Society President Beatriz Grinsztejn said in a statement. “If that happens, people are going to die and HIV will resurge.”<br />
<br />
A U.S. health official confirmed that the CDC was stopping its work with WHO. The person was not authorized to talk about the memo and spoke on condition of anonymity.<br />
<br />
A WHO spokesperson referred questions about the withdrawal to U.S. officials.<br />
<br />
Officials at the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services didn’t immediately respond to an emailed request for comment. And CDC officials didn’t respond to the AP’s request to speak with Nkengasong about the memo.]]></content:encoded>

Kennedy Jr.’s former running mate joined in the chorus of voices expressing grave concerns with personalized mRNA shots to combat cancer after the untested treatment was promoted by tech billionaire Larry Ellison at the White House this week.<br />
<br />
“What we need for the mRNA platform right now is a moratorium. It’s not ready for human use,” Nicole Shanahan told Megyn Kelly on her podcast this week.<br />
<br />
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-lang="en"><p lang="en" dir="ltr"><a href="https://twitter.com/EndTribalism/status/1882175402539454723"></a></blockquote>
<script async src="//platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script><br />
Shanahan and Kelly were discussing remarks made by Ellison, the chief technology officer at software giant Oracle. He was at the White House touting a controversial new project backed by the Trump administration called Project Stargate. The initiative will <a href="https://www.foxbusiness.com/markets/trumps-ai-deal-fueling-early-cancer-detection-oracles-larry-ellison" target="_blank" rel="noopener" class="mycode_url">invest</a> a reported &#36;500 billion into technology and artificial intelligence.<br />
<br />
With Trump standing to his side, Ellison had commented that “you can do early cancer detection with a blood test, and using AI to look at the blood test, you can find the cancers that are actually seriously threatening the person. You can make that vaccine, that mRNA vaccine, you can make that robotically, again using AI, in about 48 hours.”<br />
<br />
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-lang="en"><p lang="en" dir="ltr"><a href="https://twitter.com/MakisMD/status/1882015575850758378"></a></blockquote>
<script async src="//platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script><br />
Ellison’s remarks were nearly universally criticized on social media. Several observers, <a href="https://www.newsweek.com/donald-trump-mrna-vaccine-cure-cancer-ai-2018701" target="_blank" rel="noopener" class="mycode_url">including</a> generally pro-Trump voices, expressed alarm at the proposal, finding it reminiscent of the first Trump administration’s Operation Warp Speed initiative. Two of the three COVID shots authorized for use in the U.S. under Warp Speed were also mRNA-based.<br />
<br />
Dr. Robert Malone, who pioneered mRNA technology decades ago, issued a warning about Ellison’s proposal, stating that he has “no understanding of cancer immunology.”<br />
<br />
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-lang="en"><p lang="en" dir="ltr"><a href="https://twitter.com/RWMaloneMD/status/1882053004695945490"></a></blockquote>
<script async src="//platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script><br />
Shanahan further explained to Kelly, who herself was injured by the COVID shot, that “AI is a computer system. Human health is not.” She then stated that mRNA shots deliver “an inconsistent result in individuals,” pointing to the various reactions people have had to the COVID jab.<br />
<br />
To Shanahan’s point, coroners and funeral directors have admitted that there has been an unusual uptick in blood clots found in deceased persons in recent years, with some of them saying that the COVID shot is possibly at fault. What’s more, so-called “turbo cancers” have emerged as well, with Dr. Peter McCullough arguing that they may be the result of the jab.<br />
<br />
Without specifying what she was referring to, Shanahan further warned that certain ideas raised at the White House press conference could result in societal collapse.<br />
<br />
“There’s so many that could have been shared in yesterday’s conference that are really excellent uses of AI,” she said. “I heard a few that were kind of out there and if deployed too quickly could lead to an extinction event.”<br />
<br />
That comment caused Kelly to exclaim, “whoa!”<br />
<br />
Shanahan’s cryptic remarks are not the first time she has raised the specter of technology harming human beings. During a <a href="https://www.lifesitenews.com/news/former-rfk-jr-running-mate-warns-big-tech-is-using-wireless-technology-to-damage-peoples-health/" target="_blank" rel="noopener" class="mycode_url">talk</a> she gave at a Turning Point USA event in December, Shanahan suggested that corporate and governmental forces are using wireless technologies for nefarious ends.<br />
<br />
“People called me a conspiracy theorist for pointing out that the electric field we inhabit on Earth is being polluted through the use of unmitigated wireless products,” she said. “Well, here’s the truth – this is a real truth, and I’m from Silicon Valley, so I’m filling you in on a secret – these technologies can be made safe, but Big Tech is in bed with Big Pharma.”<br />
<br />
Implying that human beings are unknowingly being poisoned, Shanahan then said that “we are an electrochemical species, and we are indeed short-circuiting at a cellular level — young people falling over on stage, which we are seeing time and time again on social media, video after video, of a newscaster or a young person literally speaking on stage and falling over.”<br />
<br />
“This is not normal,” she <a href="https://x.com/newstart_2024/status/1870913063580287169" target="_blank" rel="noopener" class="mycode_url">stated</a>. “There’s something biological happening … we are being polluted both electrically and chemically on a daily basis.”<br />
<br />
Worry has set in among some medical freedom activists regarding Trump’s second term and not simply because of Ellison’s remarks Wednesday. Tech oligarch Bill Gates said that during his recent meeting with Trump, the president-elect was “pretty excited” about the idea of fast-tracking a “vaccine” for HIV, akin to the way COVID shot was accelerated during Operation Warp Speed.<br />

Moderna began studying a "pandemic influenza vaccine" for H5 and H7 flu strains in 2023. Aleksander Kalka/NurPhoto/AP</div>
<br />
<br />
<a href="https://edition.cnn.com/2025/01/17/health/bird-flu-vaccine-funding-hhs-moderna/index.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener" class="mycode_url">CNN</a> | January 17, 2025<br />
<br />
The US Department of Health and Human Services will award &#36;590 million to Moderna to continue developing a vaccine to protect against bird flu, the pharmaceutical company <a href="https://news.modernatx.com/news/news-details/2025/Moderna-Announces-Updates-on-Pandemic-Influenza-Program/default.aspx" target="_blank" rel="noopener" class="mycode_url">announced</a> Friday.<br />
<br />
In 2023, Moderna initiated a study on a “pandemic influenza vaccine” to protect against H5 and H7 avian influenza viruses. In July, the company <a href="https://investors.modernatx.com/news/news-details/2024/Moderna-Receives-Project-Award-through-BARDAs-Rapid-Response-Partnership-Vehicle-Consortium-to-Accelerate-Development-of-mRNA-based-Pandemic-Influenza-Vaccine/default.aspx" target="_blank" rel="noopener" class="mycode_url">received</a> &#36;176 million from HHS toward its vaccine efforts. Moderna plans to advance research on the mRNA vaccine into a phase 3 trial after receiving positive results in earlier phases, which it plans to present at a scientific conference in the near future.<br />
<br />
“Avian flu variants have proven to be particularly unpredictable and dangerous to humans in the past. That is why this response has been a top priority for the Biden-Harris Administration and HHS,” HHS Secretary Xavier Becerra said in a statement Friday. “Accelerating the development of new vaccines will allow us to stay ahead and ensure that Americans have the tools they need to stay safe.”<br />
<br />
Avian influenza, or bird flu, is a broad term that refers to several types of influenza that normally infect birds. The H5N1 virus has raised concern among health officials because it has sickened dozens of people in the United States over the past several months; the first <a href="https://www.cnn.com/2025/01/06/health/bird-flu-death-louisiana/index.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener" class="mycode_url">human death</a> from a severe case of the virus was reported in Louisiana this month.<br />
<br />
“The project will provide additional support for late-stage development and licensure of pre-pandemic mRNA-based vaccines. The agreement will also support the expansion of clinical studies for up to five additional subtypes of pandemic influenza,” Moderna said in a statement Friday.<br />
<br />
The US does have vaccines against H5 viruses in its Strategic National Stockpile, but they are made with older technology.<br />
<br />
Separately, the Biden administration announced this month that it would invest more than &#36;300 million to help monitor bird flu and prepare for potential spread. That money would be put toward programs focused on hospital preparedness, increased testing and surveillance, and awareness around emerging pathogens.<br />
<br />
Most of the recent H5N1 transmission has been among animals, and the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention still considers the risk from bird flu to the general public to be low, with no evidence of human-to-human spread. But the Biden administration has emphasized the importance of continued collaboration among stakeholders to “protect human health, animal health, and food safety.”]]></description>

<br />
<br />
<a href="https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-13743409/canada-warn-prepare-new-virus-worse-covid.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener" class="mycode_url">Dailymail.Com </a>[adapted] | 14 August 2024<br />
<br />
<br />
The Canadian government has issued advice warning citizens to prepare for a hypothetical new virus that could lead to food and fuel disruptions.<br />
<br />
The Centre for Occupational Health and Safety rolled out a second edition of their Flu and Infectious Disease Outbreaks Business Continuity Plan Handbook.<br />
<br />
The guide provides information for employers on what to prepare for in the face of another pandemic. <br />
<br />
In the new edition, released in June, they focus on a 'hypothetical virus', that they warn could trigger further disruption that Covid-19. <br />
<br />
It states that 'based on trends from past pandemic flu, there may be a higher average number of illness and deaths in age groups different than what we typically see during annual flu seasons.'<br />
<br />
The guide also warns employers must be ready for a scenario like an disease outbreak or a pandemic which forces people to stay home.<br />
<br />
It says: 'If there is a pandemic, how many people will be off work? It is impossible to determine with certainty.<br />
<br />
'Estimates vary because no one will know for sure how ill the new virus will make people, how fast it will spread, or how many people will not go to work, until it happens.'<br />
<br />
A future pandemic 'will come in two or three waves about three to nine months separating each outbreak', it adds. <br />
<br />
The hypothetical virus could also last in these cycles for as much as two years, the report warns.<br />
<br />
It adds that people should brace for disruptions like reduced labor, supply chain issues and shifts in consumer demand.  <br />
<br />
Among those disruptions include telecommunications, banking, water, gasoline, medicine and food. <br />
<br />

<br />
<br />
The Canadian government has issued advice warning citizens to prepare for a hypothetical new virus that could lead to food and fuel disruptions.<br />
<br />
The Centre for Occupational Health and Safety rolled out a second edition of their Flu and Infectious Disease Outbreaks Business Continuity Plan Handbook.<br />
<br />
The guide provides information for employers on what to prepare for in the face of another pandemic. <br />
<br />
In the new edition, released in June, they focus on a 'hypothetical virus', that they warn could trigger further disruption that Covid-19. <br />
<br />
It states that 'based on trends from past pandemic flu, there may be a higher average number of illness and deaths in age groups different than what we typically see during annual flu seasons.'<br />
<br />
The guide also warns employers must be ready for a scenario like an disease outbreak or a pandemic which forces people to stay home.<br />
<br />
It says: 'If there is a pandemic, how many people will be off work? It is impossible to determine with certainty.<br />
<br />
'Estimates vary because no one will know for sure how ill the new virus will make people, how fast it will spread, or how many people will not go to work, until it happens.'<br />
<br />
A future pandemic 'will come in two or three waves about three to nine months separating each outbreak', it adds. <br />
<br />
The hypothetical virus could also last in these cycles for as much as two years, the report warns.<br />
<br />
It adds that people should brace for disruptions like reduced labor, supply chain issues and shifts in consumer demand.  <br />
<br />
Among those disruptions include telecommunications, banking, water, gasoline, medicine and food. <br />

SASKATOON, Saskatchewan (<a href="https://www.lifesitenews.com/news/insect-farm-for-livestock-feed-creation-to-open-in-canadian-city-later-this-month/?utm_source=featured-news&amp;utm_campaign=canada" target="_blank" rel="noopener" class="mycode_url">LifeSiteNews</a> [slightly adapted - not all hyperlinks included from original]) — An insect farm seeking to create “sustainable” livestock feed is set to open in the city of Saskatoon, Saskatchewan this month.  <br />
<br />
On July 18, NRGene Canada, an agricultural technology firm, <a href="https://nrgene.com/press-release/nrgene-canada-and-buhler-launch-north-american-insect-center-for-sustainable-protein-production/" target="_blank" rel="noopener" class="mycode_url">announced</a> the June 30 opening of its North American Insect Centre which will focus on using insect protein to create livestock feed out of black soldier flies. <br />
<br />
“NRGene Canada, NRGene’s Canadian subsidiary, proudly announces the opening of the North American Insect Center (NAIC),” the company stated in a June 18th press release.  <br />
<br />
“This research center for collaborative innovation was established together with the Swiss technology group Bühler marking a significant milestone in the advancement of insect protein production in North America,” it continued.  <br />
<br />
According to a <a href="https://nrgene.com/unlocking-the-potential-of-the-black-soldier-fly-a-sustainable-protein-revolution/" target="_blank" rel="noopener" class="mycode_url">later press release</a>, the insects are ideal for livestock feed since the flies can “convert food and agricultural waste into high-quality protein, oil, and fertilizer at a record speed.” <br />
<br />
NRGene further asserts that the “larvae are a rich source of essential amino acids, vitamins, and minerals.”  <br />
<br />
Dr. Masood Rizvi, General Manager of NRGene Canada, celebrated the move saying, “The establishment of the NAIC in Saskatchewan is a testament to our commitment to driving innovation in the insect protein industry.”  <br />
<br />
“This facility will position Saskatchewan as a global center for insect protein production,” he continued. “By leveraging our advanced research capabilities, we aim to support local and regional economies while setting a new standard for sustainable protein production.” <br />
<br />
The company projects the market will reach USD 3.96 billion by 2033, growing at a compound annual growth rate of 31% from now until 2033. <br />
<br />
The Saskatoon farm is only the latest insect farm to begin production.<br />
<br />
Both crickets and mealworms in recent years have been promoted by global elites as a source of protein that they say could replace beef or pork, and which can also be used in a variety of foods. <br />
<br />
While the forthcoming farm in Saskatoon is focused on livestock feed, globalist groups like Klaus Schwab’s World Economic Forum and its Great Reset plan have long promoted eating bugs to replace beef, pork, and other meats that they say have high “carbon” footprints. <br />
<br />
The Trudeau government has implemented many policies that align with the WEF’s so-called “climate change” agenda, including a punishing carbon tax and restrictions on the nation’s oil and gas industries. <br />
<br />
As <span style="font-style: italic;" class="mycode_i">LifeSiteNews </span>previously reported, since 2018, a total of &#36;420,023 has been spent on helping multiple food companies that make human bug food. <br />
<br />
Some of the cricket food-making companies include NAAK Inc., a Montreal-based business that has gotten a staggering &#36;171,695 from the government in the last five years. <br />
<br />
Another company, Casa Bonita Foods, is planning on making “high protein snacks made with cricket flour.” <br />
<br />
The promotion of eating bug protein has the support of Canada’s federal government under Trudeau. <br />
<br />
His government has contributed &#36;8.5 million to a London, Ontario cricket farm run by the Aspire Food Group. <br />
<br />
The cricket farm can make 13 million kilograms of crickets for “human and pet consumption.” <br />
<br />
At the same time, the Trudeau government has begun to attack Canadian farmers by pushing forth an agenda that would force them to reduce the amount of nitrogen-based fertilizer. This could have a large negative impact on the growing of feed for cattle as well as food for human consumption.]]></description>
