This Just In: Triple-Jabbed Getting COVID


Some experts have finally gotten the memo that this ISN'T a pandemic of the unvaccinated--by getting COVID themselves. Twelve "super responsible," "risk-averse," triple-jabbed doctors and "health experts" attended a wedding in Wisconsin and caught COVID. They've since infected at least five people, according to the San Francisco Chronicle.  The five people mentioned in the tweet below were at the wedding. 

It's time to "stop calling this a pandemic of the unvaccinated," said Dr. Deb Furr Holden, an epidemiologist who thinks she contracted COVID at the wedding. 

Two cheers for Dr. Holden for admitting this--I'd give her three if she went a little further: the mandatory vaccinations for health care workers are pointless. (The Chronicle article is paywalled, but as far as I can tell from Twitter, she has not said this.) Not only are they pointless for stopping the spread of COVID, but they're aggravating the shortage of nurses. IU Health is now asking for help from the Indiana National Guard instead of dropping their vaccine mandate, as several other large hospital systems have done. If you think only about 100 of their 36,000 employees quit because of the mandate, as they claim, I've got a covered bridge to sell you.

In another case of the vaccinated catching COVID, 17 people on the cruise ship Breakaway tested positive. Both passengers and crew were fully vaccinated. Likewise, the cruise ship Celebrity Millennium saw two passengers test positive for COVID last spring--again, everyone aboard was fully vaccinated. 

These aren't isolated incidents. Over 84,000 Hoosiers have had breakthrough cases, and those are just the ones we know about. There's no systematic testing of the general public here. Despite the state presenting the data to give the impression that these are rare, breakthrough cases have made up 18% to 36% of weekly cases over the past few months. This is based on past data from official dashboards. Indiana defines a breakthrough as "any individual testing positive for COVID-19 at least 14 days after their final dose (or single-dose) vaccination."

Clearly, vaccinations are doing little or nothing to stop spread. Yet the forced vaccination fanatics keep saying that ditching the mandates is going to kill people--as if firing people wholesale won't hurt anything, and as if people should not be free to make up their own minds.

Winning! Read some good news!

The good news keeps on coming. After four years of the country being in the biggest mess that most of us have lived through, it feels like spring is here early. The cold wind is refreshing, the snow is sparkling, and the days are getting longer.  Photo from Pixabay . If you're getting this post by email, click here to see embedded videos from X. Trump bans the chemical and surgical mutilation of children in the name of "gender affirming care."  This is just an executive order, which the next president could overturn; we need Congress to pass a law. The CIA admits COVID was mostly likely a lab leak after all. "The CIA analysis supporting lab origin of COVID was completed and published internally during the Biden administration. It was withheld from the public by the Biden Administration in violation of the COVID-19 Origin Act of 2023, which mandated release," said Richard H. Ebright on X.  The CIA now says lab leak is the most likely explanation for COVID-19. R...

Not Only Cheaper, But Easier

A while back, I wrote about saving money on break time coffee and snacks. I haven't done very well putting it into practice. But a post by James Clear today got me thinking about it again: Warren Buffett uses a two-list system to prioritize things. Check it out --and follow the instructions. Using Buffett's two-list system, two of the goals I ended up with were taking care of myself and saving $400 more per month than I already am. As I said, I've been wanting to save money, and the system made me really focus on this. I came up with 11 money-saving ideas, six of which had to do with food. Buying hamburger in bulk. Ranch Foods Direct sells one-pound packages of 80% lean pastured ground beef in bundles of 20 for a lot less than Whole Foods. Sprouts only carries super-lean beef that's grass-fed, and it's more expensive, too.  Not driving to Whole Foods. Whole Foods is out of my way, and saving a weekly trip saves gas. Coffee at home, tea at work. Tea is fr...

Let's Grow Vegetables from Seed

MAHA may be a great idea, but what you do at your house is more important for your health than what's happening at the White House. Growing your own vegetables provides food that's fresher and tastes better than store-bought and helps you get some fresh air, sunshine and exercise. If you grow enough, you can even can your own sauces and soups that don't have any franken-food ingredients. My first time growing celery from seed.  Here in central Indiana, it's time to plant celery from seed since the average last frost date is 10 weeks away. In a few weeks, it'll be time to plant tomatoes. There are a couple of ways to figure out when to start various seeds where you live: You can find out when it's time to plant things by 1) looking up your average last frost date, 2) getting a seed packet and looking at the instructions for starting the seeds indoors, and 3) counting backwards on a calendar by the number of weeks indicated. You could also ask Grok (X's AI fea...

Blog Lineup Change

Bye-bye, Fathead. I've enjoyed the blog, but can't endorse the high-fat, high-carb Perfect Health Diet that somehow makes so much sense to some otherwise bright people. An astrophysicist makes some rookie mistakes on a LC diet, misdiagnoses them, makes up "glucose deficiency," and creates a diet that's been shown in intervention studies to increase small LDL, which can lead to heart disease. A computer programmer believes in the diet and doesn't seem eager to refute it because, perhaps, scientists are freakin' liars and while he's good at spotting logical inconsistencies, lacks some intermediate knowledge of human biology. To Tom's credit, he says it's not the right diet for everyone, but given the truckload of food that has to be prepared and eaten, impracticality of following it while traveling (or even not traveling), and unsuitability for FODMAPs sufferers, diabetics and anyone prone to heart disease (i.e., much of the population), I'm...

This Just In: Yogurt Doesn't Improve Health

A recent study from Spain finds "In comparison with people that did not eat yogurt, those who ate this dairy product regularly did not display any significant improvement in their score on the physical component of quality of life, and although there was a slight improvement mentally, this was not statistically significant," states López-García. Most yogurt is pretty much pudding with a little bacteria . Pudding is a sugar bomb. Hard to believe the stuff doesn't improve health outcomes, isn't it? But as usual, researchers are calling for...more research. "For future research more specific instruments must be used which may increase the probability of finding a potential benefit of this food."
