      <description>We have completed the largest real-world human analysis to date evaluating ivermectin and mebendazole in cancer patients — and the results represent one of the most compelling clinical signals ever documented for repurposed anti-parasitic therapies in oncology. The manuscript is now available as a preprint on the Zenodo research repository, operated by the European Organization for Nuclear Research, while undergoing peer review at leading oncology journals: "Real-World Clinical Outcomes of Ivermectin and Mebendazole in Cancer Patients: Results from a Prospective Observational Cohort." In this real-world prospective clinical program evaluation, a diverse population of cancer patients (n=197) were prescribed compounded ivermectin-mebendazole, with each capsule containing 25 mg ivermectin and 250 mg mebendazole. At approximately six months post-treatment initiation, we observed an 84.4% Clinical Benefit Ratio (CBR), with nearly half of cancer patients (48.4%) reporting either no...</description>

      <title>Beware of Pseudo-Science: In Defense of Melatonin</title>
      <link>https://www.sott.net/article/505570-Beware-of-Pseudo-Science-In-Defense-of-Melatonin</link>
      <description>Against cardiovascular disease, Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome and other conjunctive tissue anomalies (and for multiple other conditions too!) Whenever the American Heart Association publishes an abstract that is not peer-reviewed for a study that is not even published, you have to turn on your BS meter and apply some good old common sense. In "Long-term use of melatonin supplements to support sleep may have negative health effects", they took electronic records and highlighted those who were taking melatonin, correlating with heart failure. Mind you, if you're in heart failure, you'll have insomnia because you can't sleep due to your symptoms. So you'll need to take something. If you don't have heart failure, you sleep better and hence don't require anything. Correlation doesn't equal causation, making this another case of the firefighters getting blamed for the fire. Melatonin doesn't require a prescription in the U.S., hence it is over-the-counter, and this alone could bias the results...</description>

      <title>'My organs shut down, now I'm in a wheelchair': The lives ruined by Covid jabs</title>

      <description>Having been a dental nurse for more than a decade, Nikola Brindley was familiar with vaccination requirements for healthcare workers. So when she was asked to have AstraZeneca's Covid jab in July 2021, she agreed without hesitation. But within hours, Brindley was in A&amp;amp;E fighting for her life as an allergic reaction began to shut down multiple organ systems. She recalled: "I collapsed on the doorway, and pretty much lost the ability to walk. My husband rushed me to hospital, my heart rate had soared and I couldn't speak. We were told that if I'd been 10 minutes later, there would have been nothing they could have done." Nearly five years later, the 36-year-old, who lives on the Isle of Man, remains profoundly affected. She lives with ongoing brain fog, chronic pain, headaches and gastrointestinal problems, and requires monitoring from a variety of specialists. Her worsening fatigue has left her requiring a wheelchair, while some days, she struggles to keep down food. Previously...</description>

      <title>Study finds sunlight penetrates the human body, improving mitochondrial function and vision</title>
      <link>https://www.sott.net/article/505364-Study-finds-sunlight-penetrates-the-human-body-improving-mitochondrial-function-and-vision</link>
      <description>A new study published in Scientific Reports titled, Longer wavelengths in sunlight pass through the human body and have a systemic impact which improves vision, confirms what animal studies have long suggested: longer wavelengths of sunlight — particularly in the infrared range (830-860 nm) — can penetrate the human body and improve mitochondrial function systemically. Remarkably, even 15 minutes of back exposure (fully clothed) improved vision 24 hours later — without any light entering the eyes. 40 adults (ages 25-63) participated in the study. Researchers first measured sunlight transmission by placing a radiometer against the chest of shirtless participants standing in direct midday sunlight. In a controlled lab setting, subjects were then exposed to 15 minutes of 850 nm near-infrared (NIR) LED light directed at their backs. Visual performance was evaluated before and 24 hours after exposure using color contrast sensitivity tests. To isolate systemic effects from direct eye...</description>

      <title>COVID inquiry finds lockdowns may have cost thousands of lives</title>
      <link>https://www.sott.net/article/505315-COVID-inquiry-finds-lockdowns-may-have-cost-thousands-of-lives</link>
      <description>Fresh report exposes how "protect the NHS" fearmongering backfired The authoritarian COVID lockdowns and stay-at-home orders sold as life-saving measures have been unmasked once again as a deadly failure of big government overreach. A new UK Covid-19 Inquiry report has concluded that the relentless "Stay Home, Protect the NHS, Save Lives" messaging likely cost thousands of lives by convincing people they could not get access to health services. The inquiry, led by Baroness Hallett, slammed the slogan created by Cabinet Office officials without input from health leaders. It "led some people to feel they must avoid burdening the NHS" and "may have inadvertently sent the message that healthcare was closed," contributing to a sharp decline in A&amp;amp;E attendances for life-threatening emergencies such as heart attacks.</description>

      <description>A federal judge deemed 'too radical' by GOP lawmakers during his confirmation hearings said on Thursday that he will grant a motion by blue states to vacate (reverse) a declaration by HHS Director Robert F. Kennedy Jr. blocking breast removal and other procedures for youths with gender dysphoria. Oregon US District Judge Mustafa Kasubhai, who was appointed by Biden in late 2024 and only confirmed after Senate Democrats invoked cloture on his nomination by a 51-43 vote, said during a hearing that he would soon issue a formal written opinion and an order denying the government's bid to dismiss the states' case, and granting the states' motion for summary judgement, according to court records. Kennedy issued a declaration in late 2025 that "ex-rejecting procedures for children and adolescents are neither safe nor effective as a treatment modality for gender dysphoria, gender incongruence, or other related disorders in minors, and therefore, fail to meet professional recognized...</description>

      <title>DMSO- The Cheap, Forgotten Therapy Quietly Treating What Medicine Calls "Incurable"</title>
      <link>https://www.sott.net/article/505233-DMSO-The-Cheap-Forgotten-Therapy-Quietly-Treating-What-Medicine-Calls-Incurable</link>
      <description>The following information is based on a report originally published by A Midwestern Doctor. Key details have been streamlined and editorialized for clarity and impact. Read the original report here. This 75-year-old, who had been blind since birth, suddenly regained his sight after using DMSO to cure sinusitis. Ten years ago, doctors gave up on him: "There's really nothing I can do." But when he used DMSO to treat his sinusitis, he "became aware of the fact that [he] could see color with [his] left eye, which [he] found to be interesting." "I can see color quite distinctly now. I can see detail," Murray said. "I can count fingers, which I could never do before." DMSO has repeatedly been shown to help heal eye issues medicine still can't solve, like blindness and macular degeneration, while also reducing floaters and cataracts. But helping the eyes is just the surface of what DMSO can do. Because once you dig deeper, you start to see that many diseases we've been told are...</description>

      <description>Colorectal cancer — cancer of the large intestine or rectum — is now the leading cause of cancer deaths in people under 50 in the U.S., a new study finds. Colorectal cancer incidence and mortality have been increasing in people under 50 each year since 2013 and 2004, respectively, according to research published March 2 by the American Cancer Society (ACS). This rise in early onset diagnoses is driven by advanced-stage disease. (Colorectal cancer is also known as bowel cancer.) "The trend is very serious," study co-authors Rebecca Siegel, Nikita Sandeep Wagle and Dr. Ahmedin Jemal told Live Science in a jointly written email. Siegel is senior scientific director of cancer surveillance research at the ACS; Sandeep Wagle is principal scientist of cancer surveillance research at the ACS; and Jemal is senior vice president of surveillance, prevention and health services research at the ACS. "Colorectal cancer is the only common cancer [in people] under 50 with rising mortality," they...</description>

      <title>Crying wolf? CDC says 'little-known' virus with no vaccine spreading in US</title>
      <link>https://www.sott.net/article/505187-Crying-wolf-CDC-says-little-known-virus-with-no-vaccine-spreading-in-US</link>
      <description>The human metapneumovirus (HMPV) is spreading in the United States, including in California and the Great Lakes region, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Symptoms include cough, fever, and nasal congestion, and, unlike better-known respiratory viruses, HMPV does not have a vaccine or known treatments, the CDC stated. "There's no specific treatment that's generally recommended," Dr. Dean Blumberg, chief of pediatric infectious diseases at the University of California-Davis Children's Hospital, said in a video released by the school. "For the youngest children, using a bulb syringe to clear the congestion can be useful. Sometimes a humidifier or vaporizer may be useful, especially if they have something like croup as a complication of infection and trying to make sure that they don't get dehydrated and get enough fluids."</description>

      <title>FLASHBACK: 56% of Americans now suspect COVID-19 'vaccines' caused mass-deaths</title>
      <link>https://www.sott.net/article/505159-56-of-Americans-now-suspect-COVID-19-vaccines-caused-mass-deaths</link>
      <description>Peer-reviewed analysis exposes how the vaccine cartel propped up its fraudulent talking point — "millions of lives saved" — with computer models, false assumptions, and censorship. Public opinion is shifting — and they want action. A new Rasmussen survey of 1,158 likely U.S. voters — conducted September 7-9, 2025, with a ±3% margin of error — reveals that 56% believe side effects from the COVID-19 shots have likely caused a significant number of unexplained deaths. Nearly one-third (32%) say it's very likely. Only 35% still dismiss the idea. This shows that what was once called a "conspiracy theory" has become the mainstream view. The majority of Americans now believe vaccine harms are real and widespread. Support for HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. reflects this shift. Half of voters (50%) say government health officials deserve criticism for their handling of the pandemic, while 42% even think CDC employees should be fired for their role in misleading the public. Among those...</description>

      <description>CDC/FDA data reveal a massive safety signal for polymyalgia rheumatica — an autoimmune inflammatory disease causing severe muscle pain and debilitating stiffness. A new study titled "Association Between COVID-19 Vaccination and Polymyalgia Rheumatica: A Review and Case Series Report" reports a powerful safety signal linking COVID-19 vaccination to polymyalgia rheumatica (PMR) — a debilitating autoimmune inflammatory disorder characterized by severe muscle pain and systemic inflammation. The paper was authored by Dr. Erik Nilssen, Dr. James Thorp, Claire Rogers, Kirstin Cosgrove, Dr. Steven Hatfill, Dr. Drew Pinsky, Dr. Kelly Victory, Dr. Alejandro Diaz-Villalobos, Nicolas Hulscher (myself), and Dr. Peter A.

      <title>CIA faces backlash after hidden document with potential cure for cancer is declassified after 60 years</title>
      <link>https://www.sott.net/article/505081-CIA-faces-backlash-after-hidden-document-with-potential-cure-for-cancer-is-declassified-after-60-years</link>
      <description>A newly surfaced CIA document suggests US intelligence once reviewed research that hinted at a possible cancer treatment more than 60 years ago. The document, produced in February 1951 and declassified in 2014, summarizes a Soviet scientific paper that examined striking similarities between parasitic worms and cancerous tumors. The report describes how researchers believed both organisms thrived under nearly identical metabolic conditions and accumulated large reserves of glycogen, a form of stored energy. The research also highlighted experiments showing that certain chemical compounds were capable of targeting both parasitic infections and malignant tumors.</description>

      <title>Polling Reveals A Profound Shift on Vaccines: We Can't Let Pharma Bury It</title>
      <link>https://www.sott.net/article/505050-Polling-Reveals-A-Profound-Shift-on-Vaccines-We-Cant-Let-Pharma-Bury-It</link>
      <description>Story at a Glance: - Due to widespread media and scientific censorship, accurate information which challenges pharmaceutical interests is difficult to obtain. Polling offers a unique means to bypass this blockade. - Extensive polling shows 9%-34% of COVID vaccine recipients developed side effects from the vaccine, 7-13% developed serious side effects, 7.5-22% know someone with a severe vaccine injury, 24-28% know someone who they believe died from the vaccine and 46-55% believe the COVID vaccines have killed a significant number of people. - These results are profound and likely account for the unprecedented loss of trust in doctors and hospitals since COVID (from 71.5% to 40.1%) which is mirrored by a significant loss of trust in the pharmaceutical industry, government health authorities and support for childhood vaccinations (which, now, almost half of the population no longer fully trusts). - MAHA's policies and accomplishments, including those towards vaccines, are now some of...</description>

      <description>Senate Democratic Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) and 12 other senators introduced legislation on March 5 that would force the nation's largest meatpackers to break up their operations across beef, pork, and poultry, in the latest push in the Democratic affordability agenda heading into the 2026 midterm elections. The Family Grocery and Farmer Relief Act would make it illegal for a major meatpacking company to control more than one type of meat, impose concentration caps on beef markets, and give the Federal Trade Commission authority to order divestitures of plants and facilities. The bill would also bar foreign-controlled meatpacking companies, including Brazil-based JBS, from operating in the United States.</description>

      <description>Researchers identified plastic particles in 90% of tumor samples and 70% of benign samples Small fragments of plastic were found in the tumors of most prostate cancer patients, according to a new study from NYU Langone Health. In past studies, microplastics have been found in almost every human organ and in bodily fluids, but their impact on human health still isn't fully understood. The researchers analyzed tissue samples from 10 patients with prostate cancer who underwent surgery to remove the entire organ. Using visuals of both benign samples and tumor samples, as well as specialized equipment, the scientists identified plastic particles in 90% of the tumor samples and 70% of benign tissue samples, according to the study press release.</description>

      <description>My new podcast, Informed with Aaron Siri, is officially live. On the first episode of Informed with Aaron Siri, Dr. Russell Surasky — one of the rare physicians in the U.S. double board-certified in neurology and preventive medicine — breaks his silence. Specializing in complex neurological pain, headaches, spinal disorders, and challenging diagnostic cases, he shares firsthand experiences with acute vaccine adverse events — cases that are quietly acknowledged but rarely reported. Dr. Surasky speaks out on what needs to be exposed: the profound cognitive dissonance within medicine. He reveals a rare look behind the closed doors of the medical establishment and how it treats cases of serious vaccine harm. I'll be posting new episodes on YouTube and Spotify — tune in, share, and subscribe!</description>

      <title>Study finds explanation of how ketogenic diets prevent seizures</title>
      <link>https://www.sott.net/article/504864-Study-finds-explanation-of-how-ketogenic-diets-prevent-seizures</link>
      <description>New findings in mice shed light on brain's response to the keto diet, long known to help treat some patients with epilepsy A ketogenic diet — one that is high in fat and extremely low in carbohydrates — has been known for decades to reduce seizures in some epilepsy patients. But how the highly restrictive diet achieves these effects has not previously been understood. Researchers at Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis have now shown in mice that the diet causes physical changes in brain cells affecting how they send information to one another, dampening the strength of the signals between them. This quieter neural landscape might explain how the diet calms the overactive electrical signaling that characterizes an epileptic seizure. The study appears this month in Cell Reports.</description>

      <description>SuperAgers' hippocampi have a unique environment that supports the birth, survival of new neurons A new study finds that SuperAgers produce between two and two and a half times more new neurons than their healthy peers and peers with Alzheimer's disease, respectively, which may help explain why their memory stays strong with age. Photo by Shane C... SuperAgers don't just preserve their memory abilities well into their 80s and beyond — their brains continue to generate new neurons in the hippocampus at levels far higher than typical older adults, and even much younger individuals. That is the groundbreaking finding from a new study led by scientists at University of Illinois Chicago (UIC), who examined, in part, donated brains from the Northwestern University SuperAger Program. SuperAgers are a unique group of adults over age 80 whose performance on tests of episodic memory was equal to or better than that of people in their 50s.</description>

      <title>The Glyphosate E.O</title>
      <link>https://www.sott.net/article/504814-The-Glyphosate-E-O</link>
      <description>The Executive Order signed this week regarding glyphosate has stirred deep concern among Americans who had rallied behind Trump's plan to "drain the swamp." The Administration seemed to be moving the country toward restored health. The MAHA Movement, in particular, assumed the health of our nation would include an immediate separation from the chemical soup that is unfortunately found in our food. But then, this EO appeared out of nowhere, tying glyphosate to national defense? For those who have spent years dealing with a chronic illness from an environmental exposure, this question feels unavoidable: Why would an Administration that was beginning to recognize, on a large scale, the biological consequences of environmental toxins, take steps to secure the continued supply of one of the most widely used, poisonous herbicides in history?</description>

      <title>Trump Directs USDA to Prioritize Domestic Glyphosate, Phosphorus Production</title>
      <link>https://www.sott.net/article/504764-Trump-Directs-USDA-to-Prioritize-Domestic-Glyphosate-Phosphorus-Production</link>
      <description>Invoking the Defense Production Act, President Donald Trump on Wednesday designated glyphosate-based herbicides and elemental phosphorus as critical to national defense and ordered Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins to prioritize and secure domestic supplies. The order also grants legal immunity to domestic producers that comply with federal directives and gives USDA authority to direct production and control distribution if necessary. Citing the Defense Production Act, Trump declared phosphorus and glyphosate products are essential not only for agriculture but also for military readiness.

      <title>The Atlantic Busted Fabricating Dead Kid Measles Story</title>
      <link>https://www.sott.net/article/504730-The-Atlantic-Busted-Fabricating-Dead-Kid-Measles-Story</link>
      <description>Last Thursday, The Atlantic published a heart-wrenching story about an 11-month-old child who died of measles. Written in the second person from the perspective of a mother whose two unvaccinated children fell ill with the disease, the story is rich with personal detail; "You plant her on the couch with a blanket and put Bluey on the TV while she drifts in and out of sleep..." "While the kids are napping, you tap a list of your daughter's symptoms into Google and find a slew of diseases that more or less match up..." "Her cough wracks her whole body, rounding her delicate bird shoulders. She does not sleep well. And as you lift up her pajama top to check her rash one morning, you see that her breathing is labored, shadows pooling between her ribs when she sucks in air." Turns out, NONE OF THAT HAPPENED. The Atlantic's Elizabeth Bruenig simply made it up, leading to mass confusion. As Laura Hazard Owen of NiemanLab - who initially busted Bruenig - writes:</description>

      <title>MMR and MMRV Vaccines Linked to 2,657% More U.S. Deaths Than Measles Infection Since 1995</title>
      <link>https://www.sott.net/article/504711-MMR-and-MMRV-Vaccines-Linked-to-2657-More-US-Deaths-Than-Measles-Infection-Since-1995</link>
      <description>For decades, Americans have been told that measles represents a grave and ongoing threat — and that MMR vaccination is one of the safest and most effective interventions in modern medicine. Pharma-captured mass media and public health agencies have centered almost exclusively on the minimal dangers of measles infection and ignored grieving parents whose children were injured or even killed by the shots. No proper attention has been paid to signals emerging within the federal government's own vaccine safety database. Now, our new McCullough Foundation study titled "Deaths Following MMR and MMRV Vaccination in the United States," authored by Kirstin Cosgrove, Breanne Craven, Claire Rogers, John A. Catanzaro, Albert Benevides, M. Nathaniel Mead, Mila Radetich, Peter A. McCullough, and Nicolas Hulscher (myself), takes a comprehensive look at reported fatal outcomes following MMR and MMRV vaccination in the United States, doing the work that our public health agencies should have done...</description>

      <title>Coffee tied to lower dementia risk, Harvard-MIT study finds</title>
      <link>https://www.sott.net/article/504691-Coffee-tied-to-lower-dementia-risk-Harvard-MIT-study-finds</link>
      <description>New research published in JAMA reveals a strong reason to feel even better about being three to four espressos deep before the cash market opens in New York. Here's the short version of the findings: Caffeinated coffee was linked to lower dementia risk. Comparing the highest vs lowest consumption groups, the study reported a hazard ratio of 0.82 (95% CI, 0.76 to 0.89), which means higher caffeinated coffee intake was associated with lower risk. People also reported less subjective cognitive decline. The higher-intake group had 7.8% prevalence vs 9.5% in the lower-intake group (prevalence ratio 0.85). The "sweet spot" looked moderate. The most pronounced differences showed up around 2 to 3 cups per day of caffeinated coffee. Decaf did not show a significant association with dementia risk. The long-running study, led by researchers from Mass General Brigham, Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health, and the Broad Institute of MIT, tracked 131,821 U.S. adults for four decades and...</description>

      <description>Today, an increasing number of Americans across the political spectrum - from Make America Healthy Again activists to everyday shoppers - are voicing concern about the health impact of ultraprocessed foods - those boxed and wrapped in plastic, ready-to-eat items lining grocery store shelves. Leading the charge are two men who disagree on pretty much everything else about public health - Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and Dr. David Kessler, the former commissioner of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. The two men have found common ground over a common culprit: a 67-year-old government classification for substances in our food. It's called GRAS, or generally recognized as safe. Kennedy and Kessler say it has allowed big food companies to use ingredients without a full government safety review and flood the market with ultraprocessed foods that now make up 50% of our calories and 60% of our children's diets.</description>

      <title>Is the Definition of Alzheimer's Being Changed to Sell Drugs?</title>
      <link>https://www.sott.net/article/504623-Is-the-Definition-of-Alzheimers-Being-Changed-to-Sell-Drugs</link>
      <description>Alzheimer's is a specific disease that causes shrinkage in the central region of the brain called the Medial Temporal Lobe. It accounts for two thirds of dementia diagnoses. While a 'dementia' diagnosis can be made from a Cognitive Function Test alone - showing poor function - diagnosing 'Alzheimer's dementia' requires a brain scan of this central area of the brain. This is sometimes referred to as shrinkage of the hippocampus, which is a central part of the brain that is critical for memory. This shrinkage is not a normal part of ageing. It is a disease. So Alzheimer's is diagnosed on the basis of both a loss of cognitive function and physical evidence of significant brain shrinkage.</description>

      <title>NCI studying ivermectin's 'ability to kill cancer cells'</title>
      <link>https://www.sott.net/article/504603-NCI-studying-ivermectins-ability-to-kill-cancer-cells</link>
      <description>— No new evidence cited that might have prompted this move The National Cancer Institute (NCI), the federal research agency charged with leading the war against the nation's second-largest killer, is studying ivermectin as a potential cancer treatment, according to its top official. "There are enough reports of it, enough interest in it, that we actually did -- ivermectin, in particular -- engage in sort of a better preclinical study of its properties and its ability to kill cancer cells," said Anthony Letai, MD, PhD, who was appointed NCI director by the Trump administration in September. Letai did not cite new evidence that might have prompted the institute to research the effectiveness of the antiparasitic drug against cancer. The drug, largely used to treat people or animals for infections caused by parasites, is a popular dewormer for horses. "We'll probably have those results in a few months," Letai said. "So we are taking it seriously."</description>

      <link>https://www.sott.net/article/504598-FDA-Refuses-to-Review-Modernas-Influenza-Vaccine-for-Potential-Approval</link>
      <description>The FDA has declined to initiate a review of Moderna's biologics license application (BLA) for its investigational influenza vaccine, mRNA-1010, issuing a Refusal-to-File (RTF) letter that hinges on trial design rather than concerns about the vaccine's safety or effectiveness. Moderna announced that the FDA's Center for Biologics Evaluation and Research (CBER) determined it could not review the application because the company used a licensed standard-dose seasonal influenza vaccine as the comparator in a pivotal phase 3 efficacy study. According to the RTF letter, signed by CBER Director Vinayak Prasad, MD, MPH, the comparator did not reflect the "best-available standard of care," and therefore did not meet the requirement for an "adequate and well-controlled" study.</description>

      <description>The global expansion of high-containment biolabs without oversight — increasingly engaged in Nipah virus research — combined with aggressive patent consolidation of Nipah's core glycoproteins and their integration into mRNA and self-amplifying mRNA (saRNA) injection platforms, represents a profound and escalating global biosecurity risk.

      <link>https://www.sott.net/article/504525-Psychedelics-may-rewire-the-brain-to-treat-PTSD-Scientists-are-finally-beginning-to-understand-how</link>
      <description>For researcher Lynnette Averill, the quest to find a treatment for post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is deeply personal. Averill's father served as an enlisted infantryman with the U.S. Marine Corps in Vietnam and struggled to cope with his war experiences when he returned home. After years of ineffective treatments, he died by suicide when Averill was three. Driven by a mission to support veterans' mental health, Averill trained as a psychologist and began working with people with PTSD — a condition that affects more than 12 million Americans in any given year. Victims of violence, abuse and accidents can experience post-traumatic symptoms such as persistent flashbacks, hypervigilance, and entrenched negative beliefs about themselves and their environment. "People can be very stuck in black-and-white thinking, such as, 'I'm a bad person,' 'I deserve this,' 'the world is dangerous," Averill, a clinical research psychologist at the Baylor College of Medicine in Texas, said...</description>

      <description>A newly published CDC registry study using data from the CDC's COVID-19 Vaccine Pregnancy Registry (C19VPR) and the Pregnancy Risk Assessment Monitoring System (PRAMS) compared approximately 8,000 vaccinated pregnant women to 8,000 unvaccinated pregnant women and found a 24% higher relative risk of hypertensive disorders of pregnancy (15% vs. 12%) among those who received COVID-19 shots. These disorders — which include gestational hypertension and preeclampsia — are a leading cause of maternal and fetal death worldwide. The association was statistically significant, persisted in sensitivity analyses, and remained after adjustment for multiple confounders.</description>

      <description>Zero. That is the number of researchers who have published peer-reviewed studies on diet and schizophrenia who were contacted by the journalists who called the science "unfounded." Story-at-a-glance Seventy-five years of peer-reviewed research — including double-blind RCTs published in 2025 — link gluten-containing grains to schizophrenia in an identifiable subpopulation: the 25-30% of patients with elevated anti-gliadin antibodies. Ketogenic and grain-free diets have produced documented remissions of schizophrenia at Harvard, Stanford, and McLean Hospital, with multiple RCTs now underway or completed. No journalist who covered Kennedy's remarks contacted any of these researchers. Wheat's harm extends far beyond gluten. The Dark Side of Wheat identifies six categories of damage — including WGA neurotoxicity, opioid-receptor disruption, and excitotoxicity — across 335 peer-reviewed abstracts and 229 disease associations. Removing grains also eliminates chronic glyphosate exposure...</description>

      <link>https://www.sott.net/article/504482-The-Truth-About-SSRI-Antidepressants</link>
      <description>Story at a Glance: - SSRI antidepressants are one of the most harmful medications on the market, and because of just how many people they are given to (often for no good reason as only a minority of patients benefit from SSRIs) they have had a profound effect on the consciousness of our entire society. - This article will review some of the more common side effects of SSRIs (and SNRIs), such as losing the ability to have sex, becoming numb to life, becoming severely agitated or imbalanced (sometimes to the point one becomes violently psychotic or commits suicide), losing your mind, and the development of birth defects. - Like many other stimulant drugs (e.g., cocaine) SSRIs can be very difficult to quit. Because of this, patients frequently get severely ill when they attempt to stop them (withdrawals affect roughly half of SSRI users). Worse still, it is often extremely difficult to withdraw from them and very few doctors know how to safely facilitate this. - Due to widespread...</description>

      <description>Texas Gov. Greg Abbott on Thursday said he imposed a statewide disaster declaration to prevent the spread of a type of parasitic fly in his state. The New World screwworm isn't yet present in the United States or Texas, although officials say it has been spreading toward the U.S.-Mexico border. Abbot said it can cause potential problems for the U.S. livestock industry if it spreads northward across the border. "State law authorizes me to act to prevent a threat of infestation that could cause severe damage to Texas property, and I will not wait for such harm to reach our livestock and wildlife," he said in a statement. The disaster declaration allows him to mobilize the Texas New World Screwworm Response Team to "fully utilize all state government prevention and response resources to prevent the re-emergence of this destructive parasite" and that "Texas is prepared to fully eradicate this pest if need be," he said.</description>

      <title>Vaccine mRNA, Plasmid DNA, and Spike Protein Can Persist in Humans More Than 3.5 Years After COVID-19 Vaccination</title>

      <description>We report the longest documented persistence of mRNA vaccine components to date, independently confirmed across multiple laboratories, biospecimens, and time points using diverse analytical methods. For years, the public was told that mRNA vaccine materials would degrade within days to weeks — rapidly broken down, biologically transient, and incapable of long-term persistence. That assumption shaped regulatory assurances, public messaging, and safety expectations worldwide. Billions across the globe received these injections based on the claim that the genetic material would quickly disappear from the body. Today, that narrative collapses — following a coordinated, multi-country investigative effort involving the McCullough Foundation, the INMODIA laboratory (Germany), the Municipal Hospital Dresden-Friedrichstadt (Germany), Neo7Bioscience, and collaborating independent laboratories. The resulting paper, titled "Unprecedented Persistence of Vaccine mRNA, Plasmid DNA, Spike Protein,...</description>

      <description>Malpractice verdicts can change the landscape in medicine. Medicolegal risk reduction is a powerful force in institutional practice. Alter AI assisted in this story. In January 2026, Fox Varian v. Kenneth Einhorn et al. became one of the most consequential medical malpractice trials in recent American history. The Westchester County Supreme Court case marked a turning point in how the judiciary addresses the rapidly growing number of detransitioners — young adults who regret irreversible medical interventions performed under the banner of "gender-affirming care." According to the January 31, 2026 Daily Wire report "Detransitioner Awarded Millions in First Malpractice Verdict: 'This Is How It All Ends'", the Westchester County jury awarded Fox Varian now 22 years old, $2 million ($1.6 M for pain and suffering, $400K for future medical expenses) after finding both her psychologist Dr. Kenneth Einhorn and her plastic surgeon liable for malpractice in performing and facilitating a...</description>

      <description>Having studied and treated these conditions for almost 50 years, since a nasty viral syndrome triggered my fibromyalgia and left me homeless in 1975, it's been both a blessing and a challenge to see so many treatments. On the plus side, most cases can be effectively treated (by natural practitioners). On the other hand, sorting through the options can be quite challenging. This is usually the case as we learn about complex conditions. As we get closer to the truth, we can tell because things start to tie together and get simpler. This is happening now. Research is showing the missing link that is common to so many common conditions. Including postinfectious CFS/fibromyalgia (which includes Lyme disease and long Covid), chronic pain of almost every type, sensitivities and MCAS (Mast Cell Activation Syndrome), and POTS (Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome). About 30 years ago I investigated a natural compound called PEA (Palmitoylethanolamide) for MCAS. There was a little...</description>

      <description>Federal health officials have removed longstanding public assurances about cellphone radiation safety as the Department of Health and Human Services begins a new internal review of potential health risks tied to wireless technology. Federal health agencies have quietly rolled back years of public-facing assurances that cellphone radiation poses no health risks, as the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services launches a new review of the health effects of wireless technology. According to reporting by The Wall Street Journal, webpages maintained by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration stating that cellphone radiation is not linked to adverse health outcomes were recently taken offline, a move that coincides with a broader HHS-directed study into electromagnetic radiation.</description>

      <description>As the world has become increasingly reliant on mobile computing technology for work and entertainment, few people stopped to consider the downstream consequences. A recent randomized controlled trialfound that simply removing mobile internet access — while still allowing calls and texts — can produce measurable improvements in psychological functioning in as little as two weeks. Researchers effectively turned smartphones into "dumb phones," and the results were striking: improved sustained attention, improved mental health, and higher subjective well-being. This was a month-long preregistered randomized controlled trial with a cross-over (waitlist) design, enrolling 467 iPhone users in the U.S. and Canada. Participants installed the Freedom app, which blocked all mobile internet access (Wi-Fi and cellular data) for two weeks, while still allowing calling, texting, and internet use on other devices like laptops or desktops. Outcomes were measured at baseline (T1), two weeks (T2),...</description>

      <description>Without fanfare, the Food and Drug Administration has deleted multiple web pages asserting that cellphones are not dangerous. First reported by the Wall Street Journal, the move comes as the Department of Health and Human Services has begun a new investigation into potential health effects of cellphone radiation. HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr has previously declared that cellphones are causing harms that are not yet fully acknowledged. "There's cellphone tumors. I'm representing hundreds of people who have cellphone tumors behind the ear. It's always on the ear that you favor with your cellphone...We have the science," Kennedy said in a 2023 appearance on the Joe Rogan Experience. "You should never put one next to your head... I put it on speakerphone or use earphones."</description>

      <description>In this deeply revealing episode of BS Free MD, Drs. May and Tim Hindmarsh speak with cardiologist and internist Dr. Peter McCullough, a leading scientist investigating long COVID and post-vaccine syndromes. The conversation dives into the evolving understanding of spike-protein-related illness, McCullough's ground-breaking research linking persistent spike protein exposure to long-term disability, and his practical "McCullough Protocol Base Spike Detoxification" approach. Dr. May Hindmarsh shares her personal struggle: after severe COVID infections, menopause, and hormonal treatment, her health deteriorated — with rapid heart rate, mast-cell activation, histamine sensitivity, anxiety, insomnia, and gastrointestinal distress. She later discovered her blood test showed sky-high anti-spike protein antibody levels (&amp;gt;12,000 U/mL on LabCorp testing). McCullough explains that such titers correlate with circulating spike protein fragments, even years post-infection or post-vaccine. As...</description>

      <title>Gene-Based RNA "Vaccines" Have Been Used in Our Food Supply Since 2012</title>
      <link>https://www.sott.net/article/504083-Gene-Based-RNA-Vaccines-Have-Been-Used-in-Our-Food-Supply-Since-2012</link>
      <description>Most Americans assume the "gene-based vaccine era" began with COVID-19. But few realize that a genetic vaccine platform has been deployed in food-producing animals for more than a decade — largely outside of public awareness or mainstream discussion. In 2012, the USDA licensed Merck's SEQUIVITY® platform for use in commercial swine herds. SEQUIVITY is marketed as an "RNA particle" vaccine system designed to deliver genetic instructions so the animal's cells produce targeted antigens. In other words: this is a gene-based injection platform used in pigs raised for human consumption, and it has been circulating in the U.S. pork production ecosystem since the early 2010s.</description>

      <title>In defense of Surgeon General Joseph Ladapo and structured water: When saying "might" is a crime</title>
      <link>https://www.sott.net/article/503959-In-defense-of-Surgeon-General-Joseph-Ladapo-and-structured-water-When-saying-might-is-a-crime</link>
      <description>They didn't attack Joe Ladapo because he was reckless. They attacked him because a calm, credible authority suggested water quality matters, threatening an entire business model built on sickness. I. The Ladapo "Scandal" The absolute best Surgeon General in any state's history is Dr. Joseph Ladapo, and there isn't even a close second (though, in fairness, only six states have Surgeon Generals, and the position itself is barely two decades old). Given we live an hour apart, Lisa and I have gotten to know both Joe and Brianna (and their three little rascals) and consider them both friends. Joe possesses an impressive combination of personality traits, a rare mix of kindness, intelligence, objectivity, courage, and determination. He's one of the most impressive people I have encountered during my Covid journey. And with those traits, it should surprise no one that he was, and remains, one of the most publicly attacked and denigrated figures of the era. There's a quote commonly...</description>

      <title>What makes all Vaccines so dangerous?</title>
      <link>https://www.sott.net/article/503941-What-makes-all-Vaccines-so-dangerous</link>
      <description>Vaccines often cause various side effects, making it hard to identify common causes — many of which overlap with other mysterious and "incurable" ailments Neurologist Andrew Moulden discovered that vaccines frequently trigger microstrokes, which can lead to a myriad of acute and chronic diseases Forgotten research from the 1960s shows that blood cell clumping is a root cause of many diseases — a belief also shared by Chinese Medicine Colloidal chemistry and zeta potential science reveal that positive charges around blood cells cause clumping. Agents with concentrated positive charges, such as aluminum and the COVID spike protein, are especially problematic Improving the physiologic zeta potential benefits a wide range of acute and chronic illnesses. A strong case can also be made that many conventional and holistic therapies work in part by enhancing zeta potential ***</description>

      <title>The heart of the matter: Cardiac risks of Covid-19 vaccines</title>
      <link>https://www.sott.net/article/503921-The-heart-of-the-matter-Cardiac-risks-of-Covid-19-vaccines</link>
      <description>Evidence continues to mount indicating that the global response to the Covid-19 pandemic was counterproductive and harmful, yet mainstream opinion continues to proclaim that it was a triumph. This is based on scientific papers that often manipulate the data or present it selectively. Exhibit 1: Cohort study of cardiovascular safety of different Covid-19 vaccination doses among 46 million adults in England by Ip et al. The authors conclude that 'the incidence of common arterial thrombotic events (mainly acute myocardial infarction and ischaemic stroke) was generally lower after each vaccine dose, brand and combination' and 'the incidence of common venous thrombotic events (mainly pulmonary embolism and lower limb deep venous thrombosis) was lower after vaccination.' This seems to be a straightforward outcome, based on a most inclusive sample - the whole population of England. However, Table 2 shows incidence rates of cardiovascular events were substantially higher (nearly double for...</description>

      <title>The Case for Personalized Menopause Care</title>
      <link>https://www.sott.net/article/503894-The-Case-for-Personalized-Menopause-Care</link>
      <description>For more than two decades, the debate of menopause hormone therapy evolved around a simple yes-or-no question: safe or dangerous? That oversimplified view has let women down. In November, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration removed the black-box label from low-dose vaginal estrogen and softened language on systemic therapy. It happened quietly, but signals something important — hormone therapy was never meant to be one-size-fits-all. The real question isn't whether hormone therapy is are good or bad. It's about who truly benefits from them — and who should steer clear. The same low-dose patch that restores sleep and energy for one woman can worsen migraines or cause heart palpitations in another.</description>

      <title>Common kissing virus triggers autoimmune reactions after COVID-19, long COVID, or, COVID-19 vaccinations</title>
      <link>https://www.sott.net/article/503893-Common-kissing-virus-triggers-autoimmune-reactions-after-COVID-19-long-COVID-or-COVID-19-vaccinations</link>
      <description>Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) hijacks immune cells that cause lupus, researchers say. A virus lurking silently in 95 percent of Americans may be the hidden culprit behind lupus, a debilitating autoimmune disease that has baffled doctors for generations. Stanford researchers have identified the Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) — the common virus that causes mononucleosis — as a direct cause of systemic lupus erythematosus. "This is the single most impactful finding to emerge from my lab in my entire career," senior study author Dr. William Robinson, a professor of immunology and rheumatology, said in a press statement. "We think it applies to 100 percent of lupus cases." How EBV Triggers Lupus ​Lupus occurs when the immune system mistakenly attacks the body's own tissues, causing damage to skin, joints, kidneys, heart, nerves, and other organs.</description>

      <title>The Fatal Mistake Behind Low Vitamin D Supplementation</title>
      <link>https://www.sott.net/article/503868-The-Fatal-Mistake-Behind-Low-Vitamin-D-Supplementation</link>
      <description>Redressing "Darwin Awards" when it comes to vitamin D supplementation - Vitamin D supplementation is essential for those with connective tissue disorders - Toxicity is very rare, and it didn't take place even when "Darwin Awards doses" were followed by mistake - Current dose recommendations reflect a statistical error that remains uncorrected - Liposomal vitamin D plus cofactors is the best option when active vitamin D (calcifediol) is not available, especially for the "metabolically-challenged" Some influential voices speak negatively about vitamin D supplementation with an overconfidence you typically see among those raised in certain milieus in the Western world, where rates of 'entitlement to one's own opinion' are the highest in the world. Perhaps I'm just feeling raw, immersed in the war-zone of contradictions that comprises "standard medical practice" nowadays, and where excess mortality and morbidity is the "new normal," despite systematic denial about it. If humanity is...</description>

      <title>Study identifies over 300 peer-reviewed COVID-19 "vaccine" cancer cases across 27 countries — Journal hit with cyberattacks</title>
      <link>https://www.sott.net/article/503840-Study-identifies-over-300-peer-reviewed-COVID-19-vaccine-cancer-cases-across-27-countries-Journal-hit-with-cyberattacks</link>
      <description>For several years now, clinicians, pathologists, and independent researchers have been documenting turbo cancers following COVID-19 vaccination: sudden relapses, explosive disease acceleration, rare malignancies appearing out of nowhere, and tumors localizing to injection sites or draining lymph nodes. These signals have been visible for some time — but deliberately fragmented, dismissed as coincidence, or buried under claims that "case reports don't count." That excuse has now completely collapsed. A newly published peer-reviewed systematic review in Oncotarget — authored by Charlotte Kuperwasser, PhD, and Wafik S. El-Deiry, MD, PhD — is the first to formally assemble and analyze the entire published literature on cancer temporally associated with COVID-19 vaccination and SARS-CoV-2 infection.</description>

      <description>A catastrophic mistake approving a technology shown to induce severe blood abnormalities in 93% of recipients. In 2024, I warned that the Biopharmaceutical Complex was preparing for the large-scale deployment of replicon (self-amplifying) mRNA injections. At that time, there were at least 33 candidates in development. Below is the timeline of primary samRNA developments since 2022: APR 2025 - U.S. FDA fast tracks Gates &amp;amp; BARDA- funded self-amplifying mRNA bird flu injection (Arcturus Therapeutics - ARCT - 2304)FEB 2025 - EU approves COVID-19 samRNA injection (Arcturus Therapeutics - ARCT-154)NOV 2024 - U.S. FDA authorizes trial for H5N1 bird flu samRNA injection (Arcturus Therapeutics - ARCT - 2304)JUN 2024 - USDA approves Merck's experimental saRNA shot for dogs and cats (Nobivac NXT)NOV 2023 - Japan fully approves COVID-19 samRNA injection (Arcturus Therapeutics - ARCT-154)JUNE 2022 - India authorizes very first COVID-19 samRNA injection for human use (Gennova...</description>
