People who have been fully vaccinated for COVID-19 yet still get infected with the delta strain could transmit the infection to unvaccinated people, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention Director Rochelle Walensky said Tuesday in justifying renewed recommendations for mask-wearing.
“In rare occasions, some vaccinated people infected with the delta variant after vaccination may be contagious and spread the virus to others,” she told reporters on Tuesday.
“This new science is worrisome and unfortunately warrants an update to our recommendations.”
Previous recommendations from the agency were based on COVID-19 monitoring data that indicated vaccinated people rarely transmit the virus to others.
Walensky said CDC investigations have found that the amount of virus present in vaccinated people infected with Delta is similar to the levels found in unvaccinated people with Delta infections.
BLAMING THE UNVAXXED FOR EVERYTHING
The main stories are about the "danger" the unvaxxed pose to the vaccinate and I woke to the following rumour that came from Jack Posobiec on Twitter.
"Word is leaking out of the White House this morning that federal authorities are actually going to try to impose a nationwide lockdown, all states, starting BY the second week of August and lasting "however long" they determine it necessary. They will use the excuse that the "Delta Variant" is making everyone sick and killing a lot of people."
"The War Has Changed" - Leaked CDC Report Claims Delta Spreads As Easily As "Chickenpox"
The CDC is clearly concerned that it's losing the PR war to convince Americans that they must mask up and get vaccinated. Because less than a week after declaring that it would revive its mask mandate, the CDC has just pulled a classic media trick: turning the fearmongering nob up to '11' by leaking an "internal report" that supports the official narrative (even making it look like the more moderate of two options) while laundering the source of the information by allowing a reputable news org to market the story as an "exclusive".
A slide deck apparently shared widely inside the agency in the weeks after it first lifted the original mask mandate in May shows that the delta variant appears to cause more severe illness in younger patients, while spreading as easily as "chickenpox." What's more, it warns that the vaccine's ability to spread via infecting the already vaccinated means the CDC should impose even more stringent guidance - the presentation called for "universal masking." The document "strikes an urgent note, revealing the agency knows it must revamp its public message to emphasize vaccination as the best defense against a variant so contagious that it acts almost like a different novel virus."
CNBC financial pundit Jim Cramer sounded the alarm about the Delta variant of the coronavirus, predicting that the U.S. could see 100 million people stricken by the disease “in 9 weeks.”
On Wednesday morning’s edition of The Street Live, Cramer delivered a dismal forecast based on recent market performance on the heels of news that the CDC would (and then did) revise mask guidelines in the face of the Delta variant.
Israel Becomes First Country In World To Push 3rd COVID Shot For Already Vaccinated
In what's a likely sign of things to come elsewhere, Israel is now pushing a third jab, or follow-up booster for those who've already received their two vaccine rounds, for the elderly people over the age of 60.
Israel's prominent Haaretz newspaper revealed Thursday the country will be the first in the world to start doing so after government approval, writing that Israel "will start offering a third COVID vaccine shot to people over 60 starting on Sunday, after the Health Ministry approved the move on Thursday
Don Lemon - If you don't get vaccinated you don't get to eat
Professional attention-seeker Piers Morgan is leading the charge for unvaccinated people to face state-sanctioned discrimination after he asserted that those who haven’t had the COVID jab should be denied medical treatment.
“Those who refuse to be vaccinated, with no medical reason not to, should be refused NHS care if they then catch covid,” tweeted Morgan.
“I’m hearing of anti-vaxxers using up ICU beds in London at vast expense to the taxpayer. Let them pay for their own stupidity & selfishness.”
Philippines: the unvaccinated are now locked down in their homes, by order of President Duterte:
Duterte ordered village chiefs to prevent those in their communities who refuse to be vaccinated from leaving home.
“I am telling you, don’t leave your homes. If you go out, I will tell the police to escort you back to your house because you are a walking spreader,” Duterte said. “If you don’t want to help the country by getting vaccinated, then better stay in your homes.”
American Medical Association Calls for MANDATORY Covid Vaccines for ALL Healthcare Workers
The American Medical Association (AMA) along with the American Nurses Association (ANA), and other pharmaceutical groups want all medical workers in the United States to be subjected to mandatory Covid-19 vaccinations or face losing their jobs.
Ezekiel Emanuel, a Jewish bioethicist at the University of Pennsylvania and the brother of former Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel, organised a joint statement of nearly 60 medical groups demanding that all health care workers receive the jab or face unemployment for failing to comply.
Emanuel twisted the narrative, making it seem like medical staff themselves are demanding that the government enforce mandatory Covid jabs, by stating: “We have reached a confluence where health care workers want vaccine mandates, and the government is responding.
“I fully expect more health care employers – health systems, long-term care companies, pharmacies, and others– will mandate their employees get vaccinated.
“The nation will be better off for it,” Emanuel said.
NEWS FROM DOWN-UNDER
This is what they were reporting from Australia yesterday.
Sydney at breaking point: Surgery is halted at three major hospitals, Covid tests are sent interstate, 300 ARMY personnel are brought in and contact tracers struggle with 800 mystery cases
- Non-urgent surgeries have been paused at three major hospitals in Sydney
- With Sydney 'drowning' in testing, Covid samples now also analysed interstate
- Australian Defence Force will also assist NSW police with enforcing lockdown
- On Thursday, NSW recorded 239 cases - the highest in pandemic since 2020
NO INFORMATION is good enough the shift the NZ government and media from their narrative.
One every 90 seconds: 3500 jabbed at NZ's first Covid-19 mass vaccination event
New Zealand’s first Covid-19 mass vaccination event has begun – with more than 3500 people vaccinated on Friday.
More than 16,000 people are expected to turn out at the Vodafone Events Centre in Manukau, south Auckland, to get their first dose of the Pfizer vaccine over three days.
The roll-out hasn’t been without hiccups, as only about 3000 people of the first 12,500 invited to the event accepted, before the invitation was widened to a further 140,000.
BACKTRACKING ON TRUE NEWS
Earlier in the month, Britain's Chief Scientific Adviser Patrick Vallance announced quite unambiguously that 60% of covid patients are double-jabbed but then unashamedly announced he "misspoke"
EXCLUSIVE – Covid-19 deaths are rising and official data shows 87% of the people who have died were Vaccinated
Alleged Covid-19 deaths are on the rise again in the United Kingdom, with both England and Scotland seeing significant rises since the end of June, and we can exclusively reveal that the vast majority of people allegedly dying of Covid-19 had been vaccinated against it.
Public Health Scotland (PHS) have released a weekly report on Covid-19 statistics covering data on testing, vaccinations, hospitalisations and deaths. We’ve been studying the reports by the week and recently told you how the report released on the 23rd June 2021 announced that 5,522 people had died within 28 days of having a Covid-19 vaccine in Scotland.
Go back a week we have the news that the CDC is doing a Level 1 withdrawal of the PCR test - something that made alternative news and nowhere else.
More data out of Israel.
Israeli Data Shows Natural Immunity MASSIVELY More Protective Than Vaccination
Nearly 40% of new COVID patients were vaccinated — compared to just 1% who had been positive previously
Coronavirus patients who recovered from the virus were far less likely to become infected during the latest wave of the pandemic than people who were vaccinated against COVID, according to numbers presented to the Israeli Health Ministry.
Health Ministry data on the wave of COVID outbreaks which began this May show that Israelis with immunity from natural infection were far less likely to become infected again in comparison to Israelis who only had immunity via vaccination.
More than 7,700 new cases of the virus have been detected during the most recent wave starting in May, but just 72 of the confirmed cases were reported in people who were known to have been infected previously – that is, less than 1% of the new cases.
Roughly 40% of new cases – or more than 3,000 patients – involved people who had been infected despite being vaccinated. [This is from mid-July, it’s even more than 40% by now.]
With a total of 835,792 Israelis known to have recovered from the virus, the 72 instances of reinfection amount to 0.0086% of people who were already infected with COVID.
By contrast, Israelis who were vaccinated were 6.72 times more likely to get infected after the shot than after natural infection, with over 3,000 of the 5,193,499, or 0.0578%, of Israelis who were vaccinated getting infected in the latest wave. [That’s after only a few months – it’s going to get worse.]
According to a report by Channel 13, the disparity has confounded – and divided – Health Ministry experts, with some saying the data proves the higher level of immunity provided by natural infection versus vaccination, while others remained unconvinced.
The following article was posted by Dr. Malone. One of my readers suggested he was being 'sarcastic', which is something one might say if the information provided countervailing evidence.
