Pain, Pain, Go Away!

With the emergence of the Omicron variant, the federal government has "paused" distribution of Regeneron, since it doesn't work as well against Omicron. But there's still a lot of delta out there (it's 99% of cases here in Indiana) and some places are running out of monoclonal antibodies, and the federal government is actively preventing states from getting them . In the US, call 211 if you're a candidate for monoclonal antibodies (COVID positive, mild to moderate symptoms within ten days of onset, and at high risk for progression of the illness). They might still have some where you live. If you're ivermectin-curious, now is the time to order some since many hospitals and pharmacists are actively preventing patients from getting it even when it's prescribed. I'm not a medical professional, and I don't know for a fact that it works on COVID. But there's little else available for early treatment, it does have anti-viral properties in the lab...

  Photo taken by my cousin at the Cleveland Botanical Garden Glasshouse .  I'm back from a wonderful Christmas in Cleveland, where my cousins and I watched movies, went to the botanical gardens and had lunch a restaurant in Little Italy . The botanical gardens had wreaths, gingerbread houses, table settings and Christmas trees created by dozens of different garden societies and individuals vying for first place. The glass house was full of butterflies and tropical plants--some of them arranged to look like Christmas trees, like the one in the picture. Outside, white statice was still in bloom and I could even smell some of the herbs. I saw roses (dormant) that I hadn't seen since I moved away from Denver: alba semi-plena, Marchesa Bocella and Salet. Hmm...maybe these could do well in Indianapolis.  Oddly, most people were wearing masks outside in the gardens even though COVID has little to no spread outdoors, and cloth masks don't stop aerosol particles. At the two Wendy...

CNN's Leana Wen, their in-house panic peddler and forced vaccination fanatic, said yesterday that "cloth masks are little more than face decorations." She recommended three-ply surgical masks instead, along with an elaborate purifying ritual for being around other people at Christmas.  . @DrLeanaWen : "Don't wear a cloth mask. Cloth masks are little more than facial decorations. There's no place for them in light of Omicron." pic.twitter.com/Kpoj18sxdi — Townhall.com (@townhallcom) December 21, 2021 Let me explain why cloth masks are face decorations since Wen didn't: aerosols readily go through and around the masks . COVID is spread by aerosols. However, that makes surgical masks face decorations as well, since aerosols go through and around them, too. Watch in the video below (link here ): What to wear on your face? Aly Art shows you how to find your best shade of red lipstick (link here ). Wear it proudly--be beautiful AND smart!

The lies, mistakes and total nonsense just keep on coming from the experts and the media. Here's a roundup of what I've seen today without even searching for it. CDC Director Denies Myocarditis in 5-11 Year Olds who Took COVID Vaccines CDC Director Rochelle Walensky told ABC News on December 10 , "We haven't seen anything yet [in 5-11 year olds]. We have an incredibly robust vaccine safety system, and so if [problems] were there, we would find it."  Yet in a CDC repor t, a slide dated the same day noted 14 reports of myocarditis in that age group, eight of which were followed up on and "met CDC working case definition for myocarditis." (By the way, I wasn't able to find this report even with a highly tailored Google search. Qwant.com turned it up.) Follow-up is in progress for other five reports, and one is under review.

Regeneron/Ronapreve Call 211 (in the US) I've heard anecdotes from people who had a hard time getting an appointment for monoclonal antibodies. A city councilor here in Indianapolis recently had to be persistent and get a friend's doctor to intervene to get an appointment an hour's drive away . The news station he talked to advises readers to call 211 (in the US) to find the nearest facility that can treat you. If you're in Florida, you can just go to a Regeneron center . In Europe, it's called Ronapreve and different conditions apply for receiving treatment. Monoclonal antibodies are for COVID-positive patients with mild to moderate symptoms who are at high risk of progression of the illness. They need to be administered within ten days of onset of symptoms. They can also be administered to people who are at high risk of catching COVID. Again--different conditions might apply outside the US. Efficacy Against Omicron? Regeneron says its monoclonal antibodies have ...

Cardiologist Peter McCullough talks about vaccine-induced myocarditis with biologist Bret Weinstein. I've transcribed highlights and found links to back up Dr. McCullough's statements. I had a hard time confirming his statements about background rates vs. VAERS reports (Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System): myocarditis/pericarditis reports for the US total 4,242 according to openvaers.com (accessed today); they total 19,039 if you include "nondomestic" (foreign) reports. However, the CDC's own report  on slide 8 shows rates of myocarditis many times above the background rate for young men and boys. In fairness, though--almost all of these sources were difficult to find.  Link to the video is  here .  Our vaccine program would have been shut down in February for excess mortality in America--it would have been very similar to the swine flu vaccine in 1976. Our tolerance for new biologics and death is five cases gets a black box [warning] , 50 cases, it's off...

Here's the latest status of the federal vaccine mandate lawsuits: OSHA (Occupational Safety & Health Administration) requirement for companies of 100 or more employees to be vaccinated test frequently, from the Daily Wire : The U.S. Appeals Court for the Sixth Circuit ruled late on Friday that Democrat President Joe Biden’s administration can resume enforcing a vaccine mandate on companies with 100 or more employees. The Daily Wire  and dozens of other businesses filed an appeal to the Supreme Court to block the mandate. The CMS requirement for  Medicare and Medicaid   certified providers such as  hospitals, long-term care facilities, home-health agencies, and hospices is on in some states and off in the rest .  It is enjoined in Alabama, Alaska, Arkansas, Georgia, Idaho, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Mississippi, Missouri, Montana, Nebraska, New Hampshire, North Dakota, Ohio, Oklahoma, South Carolina, South Dakota, Utah, West Virginia and ...
