A 25 year old relative of someone I know pretty well just died "unexpectedly." No prior health issues. Not saying that it is the vaccines, but isn't it kind of concerning that a healthy 25 year old just dies? Doesn't it warrant some investigation?
The vax mob mafia has unleashed a monster of unparalleled horror. We can only hope that humanity will be spared the most cataclysmic outcome.

Are Vaccines Fueling New Covid Variants? The virus appears to be evolving in ways that evade immunity.
Allysia Finley, WSJ; Jan. 1, 2023 10:08 am ET
Public-health experts are sounding the alarm about a new Omicron variant dubbed XBB that is rapidly spreading across the Northeast U.S. Some studies suggest it is as different from the original Covid strain from Wuhan as the 2003 SARS virus. Should Americans be worried?
It isn’t clear that XBB is any more lethal than other variants, but its mutations enable it to evade antibodies from prior infection and vaccines as well as existing monoclonal antibody treatments. Growing evidence also suggests that repeated vaccinations may make people more susceptible to XBB and could be fueling the virus’s rapid evolution.
Prior to Omicron’s emergence in November 2021, there were only four variants of concern: Alpha, Beta, Delta and Gamma. Only Alpha and Delta caused surges of infections globally. But Omicron has begotten numerous descendents, many of which have popped up in different regions of the world curiously bearing some of the same mutations.
“Such rapid and simultaneous emergence of multiple variants with enormous growth advantages is unprecedented,” a Dec. 19 study in the journal Nature notes. Under selective evolutionary pressures, the virus appears to have developed mutations that enable it to transmit more easily and escape antibodies elicited by vaccines and prior infection.
The same study posits that immune imprinting may be contributing to the viral evolution. Vaccines do a good job of training the immune system to remember and knock out the original Wuhan variant. But when new and markedly different strains come along, the immune system responds less effectively.
Bivalent vaccines that target the Wuhan and BA.5 variants (or breakthrough infections with the latter) prompt the immune system to produce antibodies that target viral regions the two strains have in common. In Darwinian terms, mutations that allow the virus to evade common antibodies win out—they make it “fitter.”
XBB has evolved to elude antibodies induced by the vaccines and breakthrough infections. Hence, the Nature study suggests, “current herd immunity and BA.5 vaccine boosters may not efficiently prevent the infection of Omicron convergent variants.”
A New England Journal of Medicine study published last month provides more evidence of the vulnerability caused by immune imprinting. Neutralizing antibodies of people who had received the bivalent were 26 times as high against the original Wuhan variant as they were against XBB and four times as high as they were against Omicron and the BA.5 variant.
Similarly, a study this month in the journal Cell found that antibody levels of people who had received four shots were 145 times as high against the original Wuhan strain as the XBB variant. A bivalent booster only slightly increased antibodies against XBB. Experts nevertheless claim that boosters improve protection against XBB. That’s disinformation, to use their favored term.
A Cleveland Clinic study that tracked its healthcare workers found that bivalent vaccines reduced the risk of getting infected by 30% while the BA.5 variant was spreading. But, as the study explained, the reason might be that workers who were more cautious—i.e., more likely to wear N95 masks and avoid large gatherings—may have also been more likely to get boosted.
Notably, workers who had received more doses were at higher risk of getting sick. Those who received three more doses were 3.4 times as likely to get infected as the unvaccinated, while those who received two were only 2.6 times as likely.
“This is not the only study to find a possible association with more prior vaccine doses and higher risk of COVID-19,” the authors noted. “We still have a lot to learn about protection from COVID-19 vaccination, and in addition to a vaccine’s effectiveness it is important to examine whether multiple vaccine doses given over time may not be having the beneficial effect that is generally assumed.”
Two years ago, vaccines were helpful in reducing severe illness, particularly among the elderly and those with health risks like diabetes and obesity. But experts refuse to concede that boosters have yielded diminishing benefits and may even have made individuals and the population as a whole more vulnerable to new variants like XBB.
It might not be a coincidence that XBB surged this fall in Singapore, which has among the highest vaccination and booster rates in the world. Over the past several weeks a XBB strain has become predominant in New York, New Jersey, Connecticut and Massachusetts, making up about three-quarters of virus samples that have been genetically sequenced. The variant has been slower to take off in other regions, making up only 6% of the Midwest and about 20% in the South. The Northeast is also the most vaccinated and boosted region in the country.
Hospitalizations in the Northeast have risen too, but primarily among those over 70. One reason may be that the T-Cell response—the cavalry riding behind the front-line antibodies—is weaker in older people. The virus can’t evade T-Cells elicited by vaccines and infections as easily as it can antibodies. Because of T-Cells, younger people are still well-protected against new variants.
Another reason may be that monoclonal antibodies are ineffective against XBB, and many older people who catch Covid can’t take the antiviral Paxlovid because they have medical conditions such as severe kidney disease or take drugs that interfere with it.
The Biden administration’s monomaniacal focus on vaccines over new treatments has left the highest-risk Americans more vulnerable to new variants. Why doesn’t that seem to worry the experts?
Stay strong, my friend. Godzilla prowled the depths of the Pacific Ocean until he was disturbed by nuclear weapons testing. We could be facing the biological Godzilla - only NON-FICTION.
TheCOVIDBlog.com December 28, 2022 GOLD COAST, QUEENSLAND — The COVID Blog® published an article on February 3 entitled “If you still trust ‘mainstream’ doctors after
Dr. Chin administered Pfizer mRNA injections to two girls under the age of 12 on January 17. The country had just authorized the injections for the 5 to 11 age group weeks prior. Both girls suffered immediate convulsions in front of their frightened, distraught mothers. Dr. Chin told Nine News vaxx zealot “reporter” MacKenzie Colahan that the girls were fine, and that the incidents had nothing to do with the injections, despite happening within minutes of the girls receiving the shots. The parents, from all accounts, never spoke directly to mainstream media.
A viral Facebook post alleged that the girls died at the clinic. The COVID Blog® contacted the person who originally posted the message. He made clear that he did not witness the incident, and that his post was a secondhand account from a friend who witnessed it all. We originally included his name in the article. But he asked us to remove it because “we don’t have a First Amendment here” like in the United States.
The witness account changed. He now said the original post was inaccurate and that the girls did not die. It’s unclear how he could have originally gotten that important detail so wrong.
Further, the Australian Health Practitioner Regulatory Agency (AHPRA) and the National Health Practitioner Boards issued a very stern, threatening joint statement directed at healthcare workers on March 9, 2021. Not only are all doctors, nurses, etc. required to receive the injections, but they must always paint rosy pictures of the lethal injections:
Thus, there’s no way of knowing for sure what happened to the two girls. If the girls did die, it was not in Dr. Chin’s best interest to admit it. This whole situation could very well be a Tiffany Dover-like case where government, mainstream media and the medical industrial complex covered up the true facts.
The Aussie government made clear that it would punish all healthcare providers for telling truth (“anti-vaccination material”) about the lethal injections, both administratively and criminally. Australia mainstream media puppets are more useless than U.S. media puppets. There was simply no avenue to get at the real story.
[...]
The simple explanation here is that Dr. Chin died suddenly and unexpectedly like millions of others from a post-injection heart attack, cardiac arrest, stroke, or ruptured brain aneurysm, brought on by blood clots. But this entire story smells bad. We’ll leave it at that.
Updated Boosters Are Recommended CDC recommends one updated (bivalent) booster dose: For everyone aged 5 years and older if it has been at least 2 months since your last dose. For children aged 6 months–4 years who completed the Moderna primary series and if it has been at least 2 months since their last dose.
Try some reading comprehension. The CDC recommends getting a new bivalent booster IF it's been 2 months since your last shot, NOT getting a booster every two months. Nitwit.
Yuck, look at this antivaxxer circle jerk; an orgy of self-humiliation and wilful ignorance 🤡🤡🤡. Will definitely be deleting this from my internet history

Cope harder, vaxxtard.
Coping and being amused at clowns are very different things. More projection and lack of self-awareness as usual 🤡

The CDC publishes a more detailed schedule which explicitly recommends a primary series and one and only one bivalent booster for "most people" with additional boosters for "Those Who ARE Moderately or Severely Immunocompromised".
