Pfizer to price Covid drug Paxlovid at $1,390 per course

“Pfizer will price a five-day course of its Covid antiviral drug Paxlovid at $1,390 when the company starts to transition it to the commercial market later this year.

A company spokesperson on Wednesday confirmed the price, which was first reported by The Wall Street Journal. That list price, which is before rebates and other discounts to insurers and pharmacy benefit managers, is more than double the $529 the federal government paid for Paxlovid.”

Robert F. Kennedy, Jr on Providing an Alternative to Fiat Currency

"Fiat currency was created in order to enable nations to go to war without levying the taxes outright on populations. The population still pays for it through a stealth tax called inflation...What I would like to do is to at least provide some issuance of treasury bills that is backed by hard currency...It would impose a kind of discipline on this just out of control printing of money."

🚩 Joe Rogan & Coleman Hughes on How the Migrant Crisis Could Bankrupt New York City

"It's the only state in the country where Mayor Adams has no legal recourse to send people elsewhere. He actually cannot do it. He's tried to do executive orders, but he legally can't because it's in the state constitution. It's above his power and now it's taken on a life of its own...So this is why he's going to the national media and literally saying, 'I can't do anything about this.' I'm trying to do something about this, but I can't. And we're putting people up in Airbnbs for $100 a night and the city will be bankrupt in x number of years if we don't find a solution to this."

Public records show that Prestige Biotech was first registered in Nevada to Wang Zhaolin (also known as Lynn Warner) on April 3, 2019, before current company president Mr. Yao, who’s based in China, took over on May 28, 2021.”

CDC warns pet DOGS could start spreading new deadly flesh-eating parasite to humans in the US

“Leishmaniasis is a parasitic disease carried by sand flies that, until now, had only been detected in the US among people returning from countries where it's endemic in the Middle East, Asia, Africa and Latin America.

Dr Mary Kamb, a medical epidemiologist at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's (CDC's) Division of Parasitic Diseases and Malaria, told USA Today: 'This is a disease that we in the United States don't really think about. It's really a disease that belongs to other countries.'

Dr Kamb and her team have detected leishmaniasis in a number of tissue samples from patients who have not traveled outside the US.

The majority of the skin samples in the CDC study came from Texas”

🚩 Dr. Paul Offit Discusses His Frustration w/ U.S. Public Health Officials on Their Messaging Around COVID-19 Vaccines & Boosters

"I've talked to prominent public health officials about this and they have said to me occasionally, 'No, I think you're right. I think we should target high-risk groups. But when you do that...it's a nuanced message and a nuanced message is a garbled message.'

Their argument, and they may be right, is that it's better to say 'everybody over 6 months should get it,' because then it's more likely that those groups at highest risk will get it. Now, I don't know if that's true...That's a testable hypothesis."

"If they go into Gaza this could ignite the whole Arab world...I think this thing is still a powder keg and it could erupt. It all comes back to this key question of does Israel go into Gaza or not? If they don't, then I think that creates room for some sort of international diplomatic effort to get the hostages back and maybe deescalate this situation."

Coca-Cola Quietly Removes Black Lives Matter Support Amid Criticism From Ted Cruz

“Coca-Cola appeared to delete a paragraph on its website that supported Black Lives Matter, coming as Black Lives Matter drew controversy for backing Hamas.

‘Earlier this month, Sprite announced a $500,000 contribution to the Black Lives Matter Global Network in a social post committing action in the fight for racial justice.’

A current version of the web page omitted that paragraph, suggesting the beverage giant deleted it. It appears changes were made to the web page on Oct. 20 and Oct. 21, according to Archive .org records.”

mRNA COVID Vaccines Form Spike Protein in Heart Cells, but Cause Different Anomalies: Research Article

“New research out of Germany observing rat and human heart cells shows that within 48 hours of vaccination, the COVID-19 mRNA vaccines form spike proteins.

Spike proteins, made from the mRNA instructions inside the vaccines, were detected in the heart cells. While both Pfizer and Moderna vaccines caused cell abnormalities, the two induced different anomalies.

The paper is a rapid communication paper, meaning it is a shorter scientific paper published more quickly than a standard research article. Scientists tend to use this format when they have findings that need to be shared immediately with the academic community.”

From the article / study linked above👆

“Within 48 hours, researchers detected spike proteins in both cell cultures and noticed abnormalities in heart contractions.

The researchers recorded heart contractions in a supplementary video, comparing normal contractions in an unvaccinated rat heart cell (1A) with vaccinated cells.

Pfizer-vaccinated cells displayed stronger, sustained contractions (1B) due to increased protein kinase A (PKA) activity.

The authors concluded that at the cellular level, the effects of the COVID-19 vaccines seemed to align closer with cardiomyopathy than with myocarditis. Cardiomyopathy is a condition where heart muscles become both structurally and functionally abnormal in the absence of other heart diseases. This differs from myocarditis and pericarditis, which occur when heart muscles become inflamed and damaged.”
