Biden Administration Extends Public Transportation Mask Mandate.

Officials announced on March 10 that the federal government is extending the mask mandate for public transit. The Transportation Security Administration (TSA) said that the mandate would be extended in response to a recommendation from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). “TSA will extend the security order for mask wear on public transit and transportation hubs for one month, through April 18th, on the suggestion of the CDC,” the CDC and TSA said in separate releases. “During that period, the CDC will collaborate with government entities to develop a revised policy framework for when and under what conditions masks should be required in the public transportation corridor.” This new paradigm will be based on the COVID-19 community levels, the danger of novel variations, national data, and the most recent scientific findings. Any changes will be communicated publicly if…

The World Health Organization Changes It’s Stance Yet Again To Advocate For Boosters.

The World Health Organization (WHO) said Tuesday that it “highly endorses” the administration of COVID-19 booster doses, altering its earlier position that boosters were not required for fully vaccinated healthy persons. “Current COVID-19 vaccinations for primary series and booster doses,” according to the WHO’s new vaccine warning, give “high levels of protection against severe disease and mortality,” even in the context of Omicron’s spread. The WHO appeared to modify its prior position, in which it opposed the widespread use of booster injections and emphasized that it should be based on proof of individual and collective commitments to ensure global vaccination fairness. Last year, WHO Director-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebereyesus proposed for a freeze on booster injections for healthy individuals until the end of 2021 to address “deep disparity” in global vaccine access. “But for the time being, we don’t want to…

COVID Vaccines Could Be Inducing Enhanced Disease According To Dr. Robert Malone.

According to Dr. Robert Malone, COVID vaccinations may be generating increased sickness since they target an outdated type of the coronavirus. In a recent interview with The Epoch Times, Malone said, “The statistics reveal that immunization can actually raise the likelihood of being infected with the Omicron variant of this virus.” Malone was alluding to how people hospitalized with COVID-19 in some regions, such as Scotland and New Zealand, are more likely than not to have had a COVID-19 vaccine. Meanwhile, a recent study found that one dosage of a vaccination increased protection for persons recovering from COVID-19, but two or three doses seemed to reduce protection; the authors acknowledged they didn’t know why. Another study indicated that naturally immune people who weren’t vaccinated had better protection than those who were. Vaccine-associated enhanced illnesses (VAED), as well as a comparable…

3 LAPD Employees Terminated & Seven Pending For Peaceful Non-Compliance Of COVID-19 Vaccine Mandate.

Three Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD) officers have been fired for failing to comply with the city’s requirement that they get vaccinated against COVID-19 or receive a religious or medical exemption, according to LAPD Assistant Chief Dominic Choi. Seven other employees are facing dismissal, and a total of 14 people—13 sworn and one civilian—have been found to be in violation of the immunization mandate, according to Choi. Approximately 83 percent of the department has been fully vaccinated, 0.4 percent has been partially vaccinated, and 16.2% has not been immunized. There are currently over 2,000 exemptions outstanding. People who have recently tested positive for COVID-19 are eligible for medical exemptions, which last for 90 days. City Councilman Joe Buscaino, who is running for mayor, said on Friday that he believes “it should be a question of personal choice and that we…

Canadian Banks Froze Accounts Based On Their “Own Determinations” & Beyond Canadian Police Provided List.

The Canadian Bankers Association told a parliamentary committee that during the public order emergency, its members froze Freedom Convoy protesters’ bank accounts not only to comply with RCMP disclosures, but also on “their own determinations.” “We primarily relied on the names provided by the RCMP,” Angelina Mason, general counsel and vice-president of the Canadian Bankers Association (CBA), testified before the Finance Committee on March 7. “There were obligations under the order separate from that, that required banks to make their own determinations,” she said. Mason stated that banks did not depend on leaked lists of convoy contributors’ information. Around Feb. 13, the crowdfunding platform GiveSendGo, which had raised over $10 million for the Freedom Convoy, was hacked, and the donor information was published to several media sources. “What banks were required to do, however, was to monitor their accounts using…

Natural Immunity to COVID-19 Detected at 20 Months After Infection.

Researchers discovered protection against COVID-19 among the recovered at 20 months after infection, adding to the growing body of data that such protection, known as natural immunity, is long-lasting. Antibodies to the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein receptor-binding domain (RBD) were discovered in 99 percent of study subjects who tested positive for COVID-19, with some having been sick for as long as 20 months. In the fall of 2021, the researchers, lead by Dr. Dorry Segev, director of Johns Hopkins University’s Epidemiology Research Group in Organ Transplantation, issued a call for unvaccinated, healthy people and separated them into three groups. The first group included 295 people who had previously tested positive for COVID-19; the second included 275 people who thought they had recovered from COVID-19 but didn’t get tested; and the third included 246 people who didn’t think they had COVID-19 but…

Ottawa Police Chief Promises to “Rebuild Public Trust” Whilst Detesting Freedom Convoy Demonstrations.

Following the Freedom Convoy protest, which parked in the city for almost three weeks to resist federal COVID-19 rules and restrictions, temporary police chief Steve Bell promised to “rebuild public trust” in the municipal force. “The residents of Ottawa have been subjected to great inconveniences, fear, and uncertainty over the past month as a result of illegal protests in our city,” Bell stated in a statement on March 7. “It’s reasonable to have questions about the direction of the Ottawa Police Department, and it’s critical that we respond squarely to those issues.” The Ottawa police force, according to Bell, has “created an experienced and diverse leadership team” that is committed to “cultural and systemic transformation.” He said the service would continue internal investigations into inappropriate police action in relation to what he called “illegal protests” in Ottawa, and that a…

Biden Admin Unveils His ‘Back To Normal’ Strategy; Yet Asking Congress For More Funding To Combat The Virus.

On March 2, President Joe Biden’s administration revealed a reworked COVID-19 strategy, which he claims will enable the country return to “a more regular routine.” The 90-page National COVID-19 Preparedness Plan aims to keep schools and businesses open while reducing severe sickness. It includes a “test to treat” scheme, in which persons who test positive for the virus are given antiviral medications at pharmacies. It will also enhance research at the National Institutes of Health (NIH) and establish new “centers of excellence” across the country to assist people with “long COVID” if Congress funds it. The White House stated, “This strategy lays out the roadmap to assist us battle COVID-19 in the future as we take America from crisis to a day when COVID-19 does not disturb our daily lives and is something we avoid, guard against, and treat.” “We…

Member of Legislative Assembly In Alberta Calls For The Release Of Freedom Convoy Organizer Tamara Lich.

An Alberta MLA is advocating for the release of Tamara Lich, a constituent who was arrested for organizing the truckers’ Freedom Convoy protest against federal COVID-19 rules. Drew Barnes, MLA for Cypress-Medicine Hat, published a statement on Twitter on Feb. 27 headlined “Free Tamara,” calling Lich’s continued detention a “miscarriage of justice” now that the Ottawa demonstration has finished. “In her position with the freedom convoy to Ottawa, she freely admits to participating in nonviolent civil disobedience.” “She is charged with mischief and nothing else,” Barnes said. “Despite this, an Ontario judge has denied her bail, refusing to accept her promise to return to Alberta peacefully.” On February 17, Lich was arrested and charged with inciting to conduct mischief. On Feb. 22, Ontario Court Justice Julie Bourgeois denied her bail, stating that her detention is “essential for the protection and…

Navy Seals Granted Religious Exemption To Mandatory COVID-19 Inoculations. What About The Rest Of Service Members?

On Feb. 28, a federal appeals court dismissed President Joe Biden’s administration’s effort to partially lift the moratorium on the military’s COVID-19 vaccine mandate for a subset of Navy SEALs. A federal judge stopped the mandate’s implementation for 35 Navy members, many of whom are SEALs, in January, stating that the Navy created a procedure for adjudicating religious exemption applications, “but by all accounts, it is theater,” according to the judge. The Navy has given no religious exemptions at the time of the judgement. It has still not given any as of Feb. 23. Officials urged the United States Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit to let the military to consider the 35 members’ lack of vaccinations when deciding “deployment, assignment, and other operational decisions.” “Forcing the Navy to deploy plaintiffs while they are unvaccinated endangers the success of…
