The CDC’s latest count of deaths attributed to COVID-19 vaccines is nearly 20,000, but a study by researchers at Columbia University estimates the actual number is 20 times higher.

The CDC’s latest count of deaths attributed to COVID-19 vaccines is nearly 20,000, but a study by researchers at Columbia University estimates the actual number is 20 times higher.

At least that is the message from the scientific director of Ontario’s Science Advisory Table, who tells CP24 that there is likely a need for higher grade masks amid the threat posed by Omicron, particularly for frontline workers.
We should be having Omicron sleepover parties – what could be better than natural immunity with minimal symptoms?

Nova Scotia parents are now being told they have to show proof of vaccination to enter their own children’s schools, but the policy it’s based on exempts parents explicitly.

As many as 45,000 people may have died from the mRNA shots being given to halt COVID, according to prominent physician Dr. Peter McCullough.
And teenagers — especially boys — are more at risk from being hospitalized from the vaccine than they are for COVID, he said. The culprit is myocarditis, inflammation of the heart.
McCullough should know. He wrote the book on cardiology. Literally.
Unsurprisingly with the arrival of Omicron, Covid is in the headlines once again. But amid the media panic and the catastrophising, many Covid pundits are failing to appreciate a shift in the public mood. According to new research, there is mounting of Covid fatigue in the general public.

Heart attacks skyrocket – and ICUs are overwhelmed from coast to coast.
The COVID-19 vaccines appear to be causing a global health disaster. There are so many warnings from all around the world. I’ll list just a few in this column. But the U.S. media remains silent. They’re as quiet as a church mouse. Why?
Japan’s Ministry of Health just announced that “the Moderna and Pfizer Covid vaccines could cause heart-related side effects in younger males.” Health experts in Japan have witnessed skyrocketing rates of myocarditis and pericarditis in young men and teenagers. And they’ve seen the same nonstop heart issues with middle-aged and older individuals.

The Wuhan lab leak is now the most likely origin of the coronavirus pandemic because Beijing tried to cover it up, MPs were told today.
Harvard scientist Dr Alina Chan told the Science and Technology Select Committee that it is ‘reasonable’ to believe that Covid was genetically engineered in China.
She also said that the Chinese Communist Party’s cover-up of the initial outbreak in Wuhan two years ago and attempts to sabotage the World Health Organisation’s inquiry into the origins of the pandemic made the lab-leak theory likely.

Nearly 4,000 U.S. soldiers have refused the COVID-19 vaccine, the Pentagon said Thursday, potentially setting the stage for thousands of Army personnel to be pushed out of the service in the coming weeks.
A day after its Dec. 15 vaccination deadline, the Army said 468,459 active-duty soldiers have received at least one dose of the vaccine, or about 98%. About 96% of soldiers are fully vaccinated.

A Lethbridge dad who fed his children “vaccine misinformation” has lost his battle to prevent them from getting shots.
In a written ruling posted Wednesday, Court of Queen’s Bench Justice Johnna Kubik sided with the two children’s mother and said she could go ahead and get them inoculated.

Ontario could see intensive care capacity reach unsustainable levels in January without an “immediate circuit breaker” to blunt the spread of Omicron, modelling suggests.
… The experts suggest an “immediate circuit breaker,” where people in Ontario cut their contacts by at least 50 per cent and booster campaigns ramp up to 250,000 shots per day.

Canada’s national vaccine injury compensation program has released new numbers revealing how many Canadians have reported severe adverse reactions from a Health Canada-authorized COVID-19 vaccine and requested compensation.
The Vaccine Injury Support Program was first announced in December 2020 and officially launched in June 2021. While serious reactions to vaccines are extremely rare — less than one in a million, according to the Public Health Agency of Canada (PHAC) — they have happened.
So they’re stickin it to ya twice.
Ontario reports 2,421 new COVID-19 cases; highest daily tally in 7 months
The province logged 2,421 new infections today, up significantly from 1,808 yesterday and the highest single-day case count since May 15 when 2,584 new cases were reported.
Among the latest cases, the Ministry of Health says 1,530 of the cases are among fully vaccinated people, while 686 are unvaccinated, 72 are partially vaccinated and 133 have an unknown vaccination status.
Federal and provincial governments preparing for Omicron variant spread
Governments across Canada are bracing for the possible effects of the Omicron variant as COVID-19 case numbers rise sharply in some provinces and around the world.
As Ontario reported 1,808 new cases Wednesday, Premier Doug Ford announced that starting Monday all adults will be eligible for booster shots, provided it has been at least three months since their second dose.
Omicron: Will tougher measures stop the spread of Omicron?
… Much has been made of suggestions that this variant is causing milder illness. In South Africa, reports are emerging that people are not as seriously ill in this wave as they were in earlier ones.
There is still uncertainty about this. But it is logical. Not because the virus has changed to become less severe, but because reinfections and infections post-vaccination are likely to be milder.
The immune system now recognises this virus and while it may not be able to prevent infection, it knows how to fight it.
Just Vaxxed or Vaxxed and boosted it seems you can still be infected but symptoms may be mild to none for most. The ease of transmission spells trouble for the immune compromised unfortunately. Lets hope the seniors and ill are looked after this Christmas.

A return to COVID-19 restrictions will cost Nova Scotia restaurants millions of dollars and likely will force some to temporarily close, the province’s restaurant association said Monday.
As a result of the physical distancing rules, thousands of bookings will be cancelled and the losses will be “massive,” said Gordon Stewart, president of the Restaurant Association of Nova Scotia, in an interview Monday afternoon.

On Monday, December 13, Virginia’s 20th Judicial Court found Fauquier Health in contempt of court after refusing to comply with previous orders and ruled that by 9:00 p.m. Eastern time tonight, Kathy Davies must be given the dose of Ivermectin as prescribed by a doctor retained by the Davies family. Additionally — if the hospital did not comply — the state had the right to fine the hospital $10,000 per day. That order would have been applied retroactively from December 9 onwards. The court also ordered that the Davies family be given police escort if necessary to administer the drug to their mother.

Dr. Theresa Tam said there is “great spread potential” with omicron and the situation in Canada is a “few days or maybe a week” behind the U.K. — where British Prime Minister Boris Johnson today said that the country is dealing with a “tidal wave” of new infections, with the caseload doubling every two or three days as the variant takes hold.
