    An Israeli study says a COVID-19 variant can still infect vaccinated people — here’s what Fauci says the research means


    https://www.marketwatch.com/am…esearch-means-11618263415


    A small Israeli study indicates that some of the new coronavirus variants may put people who have been vaccinated at higher risk of breakthrough infections, though U.S. health officials questioned some of the wording used in the preliminary research.


    These types of cases are called “breakthrough infections,” which occur when someone who has completed their COVID-19 vaccination later gets sick from the virus.


    The preprint, which published Friday and has not been peer reviewed, gained attention over the weekend after it said that the B.1.351 variant was more likely to infect people in Israel who had been vaccinated with Pfizer Inc.’s PFE COVID-19 vaccine, compared with other strains of the virus

    That preprint, as it were, was about as confusing as you possibly could be,” Dr. Anthony Fauci, President Joe Biden’s chief medical advisor, told reporters during a White House briefing. “It made it seem like you were more likely to get the [B.1.]351 if, in fact, you were vaccinated against the mRNA. That wasn’t the case. If you were going to get infected with anything, you would get infected with the more difficult variant, which was 351. That doesn’t mean you have a greater chance of getting it.”


    Pfizer directed questions about the study to the authors.


    What we know so far about vaccines and variants

    Fauci said that clinical data so far indicates the mRNA vaccines developed by Pfizer and BioNTech SE BNTX , as well as Moderna Inc. MRNA , still provide protection against B.1.1.7, but vaccine efficacy is thought to drop against the B.1.351 variant, which is a less common strain of the virus at this time, at least in the U.S.


    Both mRNA vaccines had very high efficacy rates in Phase 3 clinical trials, with each reporting rates around 95%, though the trials were conducted last fall, before two of these new variants had been detected. The real-world effectiveness rate for both of these vaccines is thought to be closer to 89%, according to at least one preprint study published by the Mayo Clinic in February, but that is still considered a very strong rate of protection against the virus.

  • Israeli lab ‘cures’ mice of COVID-style inflammation using yogurt molecules


    https://www.timesofisrael.com/…covid-style-inflammation/


    An Israeli lab has “cured” mice suffering from an immune reaction like that found in serious coronavirus patients, using molecules from probiotic yoghurt.


    The lab triggered a cytokine storm — the immune reaction that causes the extreme inflammations suffered by many serious COVID-19 patients — in dozens of mice.


    “We induced aggressive cytokine storms in mice, akin to those of COVID-19 patients who are in very critical condition, and healed 100 percent of those that received the molecules,” Prof. Raz Jelinek of Ben Gurion University told The Times of Israel. “But the other mice all died within two to three days of the cytokine storm being induced.


    “Among those who received the molecules, clinical conditions and clinical markers improved to normal levels, and they lived. If it turns out that this could be given to critical people, and have the same effect, that would be wonderful.”

    The cytokine storm research is one of a string of experiments conducted by Jelinek, his PhD student Orit Malka, and their colleagues, after they identified two molecules in a fermented milk drink called kefir that they say deliver major therapeutic benefits and could be used to make drugs of the future.


    “The research leads us to believe that we can make drugs and therapeutics based on these molecules that are extracted from yoghurt,” he said. “They will utilize both the anti-inflammatory qualities of the molecules, that fight the cytokine storm, and antibacterial qualities that we identified.”


    Microbiome expert Eran Segal, who has expressed skepticism for popular claims promoting probiotics, said the new research is a “step forward” elevating the discussion by providing peer-reviewed scientific insights.


    “The fact that they found molecules that are relevant is definitely plausible and could be important,” said Segal, a Weizmann Institute computational biologist who was not connected to the study, adding that he takes seriously the claim that they could form the basis of drugs.


    “This could be a source of future therapeutics,” he said.

    Most illness are promoted or amplified by the microbiome! Morbus Crohn, Alzheimer are caused by pathologic microbiome some forms cancer disappear after a stool "transplantation" (Implantation/exchange is a better term!). But this method is to cheap like ivermectin.

  • The U.S. did not invest anything in the Pfizer vaccine development. Pfizer paid for the entire process themselves.

    Completely right: It was the Germans that did pay Bion-tec 500'000'000 Euro.....


    Pfizer had to pay for the trials and the experts that did fake the phase III study and FDI/CDC to close both eyes...


    Remember: Pfizer hired the study control, what is not legal against independent trial rule. This control kicked out > 200 Jab induced CoV-19 cases to fake the pandemic effectivity.

  • Israel and the UK have the highest percent of the population vaccinated. The vaccination campaign has been an overwhelming success in both countries. They are on the verge of eliminating the disease. In Israel, the whole of society is now back to normal, with schools, restaurants and other facilities the way they were before the pandemic. This is one of the most effective public health campaigns in history. It is a triumph of biology and medical science. See:

    Israel offers a hint of what post-pandemic life may look like.


    April 5, 2021


    Israel’s vaccination program has been remarkably swift and successful. In recent weeks, new coronavirus infections have dropped significantly, from a peak of 10,000 a day in January to a few hundred by late March. The economy has almost fully reopened.


    And just as Israel became a real-world laboratory for the efficacy of the vaccine, it is now becoming a test case for a post-lockdown, post-vaccinated society.

    The Green Pass, a document that can be downloaded to a smartphone, is the entry ticket. . . .




    The UK is also on the verge of eliminating COVID-19.

  • Why not stopping Pfizer & Mioderna with > 1000 death after after different type of blood cloths???

    Two reasons:


    1. You made that up. There have been no deaths from blood clots or anything else from these two vaccines. When you make stuff up, maybe you yourself come to believe your own lies, but anyone who bothers to look up the facts will see you are lying. So what is the point? Who are you trying to fool?


    2. Even if the vaccines had killed 1000 people, they will save millions of lives, so the tradeoff is worth it.

  • How can I find this number? I know of the "suspected" cases which are even more...

    You can find this number the same place all numbers from Wyttenbach come from. He pulls them right out of . . . thin air. He makes them up, the way you do, or he dredges them out of some sewer on the internet. If you want actual information you should look at a credible source such as the CDC. But of course you and the other Death Cult members are only looking for lies to back up your campaign to murder and maim people in the service of your perverted political agenda.

    • Official Post

    Federal authorities on Tuesday recommended that states stop using Johnson & Johnson’s Covid-19 vaccine while an investigation is conducted into six serious cases of clotting problems — one of which was fatal — that were reported among women who received the vaccine.


    The blood clots are similar to those reported by several European countries after use of AstraZeneca’s Covid-19 vaccine. And they are similar to an event that occurred during Johnson & Johnson’s U.S.-based clinical trial, an event that led to a temporary pause in that trial last fall. That case involved a man in his 20s, STAT reported at the time.


    The clotting problem appears to be quite rare. As of Monday, more than 6.8 million doses of the Johnson & Johnson vaccine had been administered in this country. But officials acknowledged the investigation — and increased use of the vaccine, which was shipped in record numbers last week — could lead to the discovery of more cases.



    https://www.statnews.com/2021/…39373-e1ed2e8872-44567417

  • Of course 5000 deaths are no deaths.

    No, they are imaginary deaths. No such deaths have been reported by any legitimate source. You probably made up this XX yourself, or you found this number somewhere. Either way it is a XXX lie, circulated by you and other members of the Death Cult. Your goal is to kill, maim, frighten and control people with ignorance. Why you are allowed to post these lies here is beyond me, but apparently it is okay to endanger and kill people as long as you don't say that is your goal.

  • Federal authorities on Tuesday recommended that states stop using Johnson & Johnson’s Covid-19 vaccine while an investigation is conducted into six serious cases of clotting problems — one of which was fatal — that were reported among women who received the vaccine.

    If this was actually caused by the vaccines, it is the first valid report of a death.


    It is very foolish to stop administering a vaccine that will definitely save millions of lives because it might kill one or two people per million. Or more likely 1 per 100 million. All vaccines and all other public health measures, including even seat belts, will harm or kill a few people per million. Politicians who make such decisions are pandering to ignorance. They have no concept of risks versus benefits.

    https://www.statnews.com/2021/…39373-e1ed2e8872-44567417

    As noted in the Stat article, the clotting problem may be occuring with modified adenovirus vaccines. These include J&J, AstraZenica, Sputnik V and CanSino. There have been no reports of clotting with the mRNA based vaccines. Quote:


    Top officials of the Food and Drug Administration and the Center for Disease Control and Prevention stressed during a press conference Tuesday that clotting problems have not been seen with the vaccines made by Moderna and the Pfizer-BioNTech partnership. Roughly 180 million doses of those vaccines have been given so far in the country.


    Worldwide, more than 300 million doses have been given.


    So, the statement above by Wyttenbach is based on nothing at all, because there is not even a suspicion that the Pfizer and Moderna mRNA vaccines might be causing clots:


    "Why not stopping Pfizer & Mioderna with > 1000 death after after different type of blood cloths???"

  • No, they are imaginary deaths. No such deaths have been reported by any legitimate source.

    Of course for JED CDC is not a legitimate source. (may be one non FM/R/J mafia member is working for them...) XXXX. They only report 1/10 of the virus damage cases in average as a research paper did show. That's why the EU system reports 10X more deaths after vaccination than CDC.


    Further: Jed you are the worst poster I know. You comment about posts without even reading them or may be you suffer from instant Alzheimer. I wrote different type of cloths with Pfizer/Moderna, that come from a haemoragic reaction action. It's much worse than the usual cloths and will almost certainly kill you as there is no chance to remove these types cloths, that more look like a gelee than cloths...

  • There is a surge of cases in Michigan of the UK B.1.1.7 variant. The governor of Michigan has asked Uncle Sam to expedite vaccines and send more experts to slow down the surge. Unfortunately, this will not work well, for reasons relating to the biology of the virus and the vaccines. It would work with some other viruses, such as smallpox. The vaccines are effective against the UK variant, as shown in the UK. However, the latency period after the vaccination and before it begins effective protection mean that this surge should be controlled with masks and social distancing. An epidemiologist explains:


    https://www.washingtonpost.com…higan-its-covid-19-surge/



    QUOTE:

    Vaccines won’t save Michigan from its covid-19 surge


    Céline Gounder, an internist, infectious-disease specialist and epidemiologist, is host of the “Epidemic” and “American Diagnosis” podcasts, chief executive of Just Human Productions and a CNN medical analyst. She served on the Biden-Harris Transition Covid-19 Advisory Board.


    Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer, a Democrat, is calling on the Biden administration to surge covid-19 vaccines to her state, where overall cases are as high as they were in November thanks in part to the B.1.1.7 variant of the virus first identified in Britain.


    I feel for the governor, but vaccines are not going to save her state. The best strategy for Michigan at this point is to implement the same public health measures that we’ve been using for more than a year.

    This is an important lesson not only for Michigan, but also in other places experiencing a surge. The B.1.1.7 variant, now the dominant strain of covid-19 in the United States, is wreaking havoc in Michigan and Minnesota. It’s driving an increase in cases in the Northeast, Mid-Atlantic, Florida and parts of Texas. B.1.1.7 is landing even younger adults in the hospital with severe covid-19. The Michigan Health and Hospital Association found that hospitalizations increased by 633 percent among adults in their 30s and by 800 percent for adults in their 40s over the course of March. . . .


    [Additional help and vaccines are being deployed but . . .]


    There’s another, more important reason for why more vaccines won’t stop the surge: the coronavirus’s incubation period. Some have suggested we adopt “ring vaccination,” a strategy used to eradicate smallpox in which everyone who has been exposed in an outbreak is vaccinated. But covid-19 isn’t smallpox. Covid-19 has a median incubation period of four to five days; smallpox, 10 to 14 days. It takes about 14 days after one dose of smallpox vaccine for someone to develop an immune response. This means that smallpox vaccination can prevent illness even after someone’s been exposed. Covid math isn’t smallpox math. . . .



    . . . The hard truth is that the measures that will help curb Michigan’s surge are those that take effect instantly: masking, sticking to household bubbles, socializing outdoors, not gathering indoors and maximizing indoor ventilation. These are the same mitigation measures that we’ve been recommending for months, the same measures we’re all tired of following and the same measures that so many are discarding now that we have vaccines (even if they haven’t yet been vaccinated).


    This is likely to be unwelcome news for Whitmer, who has been resisting imposing unpopular pandemic restrictions once again in her state. But it’s important to understand that while vaccines are great at preventing outbreaks from taking off, they are not so great at slowing a surge once it’s happening. . . .

  • We May Have Found a Cellular Difference That Protects Kids From COVID-19


    Shared B cell memory to coronaviruses and other pathogens varies in human age groups and tissues


    https://science.sciencemag.org…021/04/09/science.abf6648


    Abstract

    Vaccination and infection promote the formation, tissue distribution, and clonal evolution of B cells, which encode humoral immune memory. We evaluated convergent antigen-specific antibody genes of similar sequences shared between individuals in pediatric and adult blood, and deceased organ donor tissues. B cell memory varied for different pathogens. Polysaccharide antigen-specific clones were not exclusive to the spleen. Adults had higher clone frequencies and greater class-switching in lymphoid tissues than blood, while pediatric blood had abundant class-switched convergent clones. Consistent with reported serology, pre-pandemic children had class-switched convergent clones to SARS-CoV-2 with weak cross-reactivity to other coronaviruses, while adult blood or tissues showed few such clones. The results highlight the prominence of early childhood B cell clonal expansions and cross-reactivity for future responses to novel pathogens.

  • Of course for JED CDC is not a legitimate source. (may one non FM/R/J mafia member is working for them...) To much bribed.

    There is not a single recorded instance of bribes paid to anyone at the CDC in the history of that organization. If anyone did pay a bribe, that person and the person who accepted it would be in Federal penitentiaries for a long time. I know people at the CDC. I know what conditions they work under, and how closely they are watched.


    You are attacking these people with blatant lies, in the service of you agenda to kill, main and control. People like you on social networks precipitate attacks against scientists and public health officials, which endangers their careers, and even their lives. The people at the CDC and elsewhere have been subjected to terrible pressure from the disease, and you add fuel to the fire.


    Have you no shame? At long last, is there nothing you will not say, no matter how dangerous, in the service of your campaign to destroy lives and murder people? The facts mean nothing to you. The harm you cause means nothing to you. The lives of researchers, and patients, and doctors -- all should be sacrificed to enhance your political power and feed your ego, and your delusions that you know better than the doctors.
