The Food and Drug Administration's "full authorization" for the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine for Covid-19 was announced with a fair amount of hooplah and fanfare. The President of the United States announced the monumental development and touted it as rationale for the vaccine mandates to commence in the private sector, throughout the government, and in the U.S. military.

President Joe Biden was on the spot Monday morning with a quick reaction to the FDA's "full authorization" of the Covid-19 vaccines.


"The FDA has officially approved the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine," Biden said. "While all three COVID vaccines have met FDA's strict standards for emergency use, this FDA approval should give added confidence that this vaccine is safe and effective. If you're not vaccinated yet, now is the time."

Biden's announcement followed upon the widespread media coverage that the Pfizer-BioNTech had "full" approval for the use of the vaccine in the United States.

"The Food and Drug Administration granted Pfizer and BioNTech full U.S. approval of their Covid-19 vaccine - becoming the first in the U.S. to win the coveted designation and giving even more businesses, schools and universities greater confidence to adopt vaccine mandates," CNBC reported.

(This Aug. 24 story corrects figures in 5th paragraph to read: 0.5% admitted to intensive care, from 0.05%; and to 0.2% placed on a ventilator from 0.25%)

Some 25% of SARS-CoV-2 infections among Los Angeles County residents occurred in fully vaccinated residents from May through July 25, a period that includes the impact of the highly transmissible Delta variant, U.S. officials reported on Tuesday.

The data, published in the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's weekly report on death and disease, shows an increase in so-called "breakthrough" infections among fully vaccinated individuals.

The CDC is relying on data from cohorts, such as the Los Angeles County study, to determine whether Americans need a third dose of COVID-19 vaccines to increase protection. Government scientists last week laid out a strategy for booster doses beginning on Sept. 20, pending reviews from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration and the CDC.

Pfizer vaccine 'Comirnaty' now FDA approved, but VAERS raises questions

Gobierno,Argentina,20 millones,
The VAERS (Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System) run taken for vaccine related deaths thus far in 2021 reported 5,054 deaths (in the USA, Europe is much higher) that took place in some relation to receiving COVID-19 vaccines. The VAERS database, a service provided by the Centers of Disease Control and Prevention, notes that the deaths reported happened after vaccines from three sources: Jannsen, Moderna and Pfizer.

Pfizer's vaccine just got approved by the FDA. Fox Business reported this:
The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) on Monday granted full approval to Pfizer's COVID-19 vaccine for individuals 16 years and older.

"The FDA's approval of this vaccine is a milestone as we continue to battle the COVID-19 pandemic," Acting FDA Commissioner Janet Woodcock said in a statement issued Monday. "While this and other vaccines have met the FDA's rigorous, scientific standards for emergency use authorization, as the first FDA-approved COVID-19 vaccine, the public can be very confident that this vaccine meets the high standards for safety, effectiveness, and manufacturing quality the FDA requires of an approved product."

COVID-19 vaccines developed by Pfizer, Moderna and Johnson & Johnson have all previously been granted emergency use authorization (EUA) after meeting the FDA's safety and efficacy requirements. The full licensure announced Monday stems from a so-called biologics license application, building on previously-submitted pre-clinical and clinical data, information relating to the manufacturing process, vaccine quality data and site inspections.
Yada, yada, yada...

Something is disturbing about the swift approval of this treatment. Actually there are at least 2,188 somethings that are disturbing.

Comment: If one reads the fine print, the approval is for a product called "Comirnaty" which is yet to be available in the US...

China to "promote socialism with Chinese characteristics" in national curriculum

China will incorporate "Xi Jinping Thought" into its national curriculum to help "establish Marxist belief" in the country's youth, the education ministry said in new guidelines published on Tuesday.

The Ministry of Education said Chinese President Xi Jinping's "thought on socialism with Chinese characteristics in the new era" would be taught from primary school level all the way to university.

Comment: China claims to be a communist nation and yet it clearly practices a very Chinese form of 'communism', unlike anything we'd consider communism in the West, with a significant portion of their economy actually practicing capitalism, and closer to the definition of capitalism than the bankster capitalism practiced in the West. As just one example, in China, 70% under the age of 36 own their own home, whilst in the West 52% of under 30's live with their parents, in large part due to unaffordable housing and debt.

The West is often eager to use stories about China's surveillance society, its censorship, its focus on 'the Party', against China, but China enacts these policies openly and with the overall consent of the public. It would appear that this social contract is permitted because the policies reflect their values and aspirations but also because the party backs them up by delivering on it's 5 Year Plans which move the country and its people into prosperity.

Meanwhile in the West we have similar albeit nefarious machinations are occurring, only covertly, and using behavioral engineering and coercive techniques, against the wishes of the people, and against their best interests; which is evident in the West's numerous corrupt politicians, its devastated economies, and the sorry state of its society:

Man convicted of mosque bombing blames right-wing blogs, says he's a transgender woman and calls for leniency based on gender dysphoria

An Illinois man who was convicted of bombing a mosque said that he was transitioning into a transgender woman and that right-wing blogs and his own gender dysphoria are to blame for his actions.

Michael Hari was convicted in December 2020 of orchestrating the 2017 attack at the Dar Al-Farooq Islamic Center in Bloomington, Minnesota. Hari was the leader of an anti-government militia group called the White Rabbits. Some of those militia members testified against Hari in court.

Hari, who goes by Emily Claire Hari, is facing life in prison over the bombing but his defense attorney asked the court for leniency based on Hari's inner turmoil about his gender identity.


Comment: Malingering level up.


"She strongly desired making a full transition but knew she would be ostracized from everyone and everything she knew," wrote attorney Shannon Elkins in court documents cited by the Star Tribune.

Comment: Sentencing probably should be mitigated in this case on account of mental illness. A nice padded room for the remainder of his sentence would probably do the job.

'Was it worth it?' Florida's Governor DeSantis slams AP over 'baseless conspiracy theory' article about Covid 19 treatment

Jacksonville, Florida • August 12, 2021
Florida Governor Ron DeSantis has lit into AP over a "partisan smear piece" about his promotion of a Covid-19 treatment endorsed by the White House, and the agency's complaints of 'harassment' when his staff pushed back on it. DeSantis wrote in a letter to the agency, which he made public on Monday:
"I assumed your letter was to notify me that you were issuing a retraction of the partisan smear piece you published last week. Instead, you had the temerity to complain about the deserved blowback that your botched and discredited attempt to concoct a political narrative has received."

RT reporter Murad Gazdiev says what he and his crew saw at Hamid Karzai airport in Kabul after reaching it resembled a scene from a zombie apocalypse movie after a week of hectic evacuation efforts by the US and its allies.
We've just arrived at Kabul airport.

American troops call what is happening here 'World War Z,' referring to the zombie movie starring Brad Pitt. It is clear why.

The situation is horrendous.

OnlyFans says it no longer plans to ban porn in an abrupt flip-flop that comes after a backlash from sex workers who use the popular platform to sell sexually explicit photos and videos.

"We have secured assurances necessary to support our diverse creator community and have suspended the planned October 1 policy change," the company said on Twitter. "OnlyFans stands for inclusion and we will continue to provide a home for all creators."

The news comes less than one week after OnlyFans said it planned to ban all sexually explicit content starting Oct. 1 while still allowing some nudity.

SOTT Focus: MindMatters: Is Liberalism the New Totalitarianism? A Conversation with Ryszard Legutko

legutko
During the Cold War, the world's liberal democracies, like the USA, were widely perceived as the bastion of freedom, especially to those behind the Iron Curtain. But the past three decades have caused many to revise their views. With the rise of totalitarian thinking and practice in the West in those years, the question must be asked: what happened?

Professor of Philosophy and conservative politician Ryszard Legutko pondered these questions in the 1990s and 2000s, culminating in his 2012 book The Demon in Democracy: Totalitarian Temptations in Free Societies (published in English in 2016), and his latest book, The Cunning of Freedom: Saving the Self in an Age of False Idols (2021). Legutko argues that at its root, liberalism as ideology shares many of the same features as communism. Despite their differences, both share essentially the same views of history, the future, politics, ideology, and religion. These tendencies cause ideology to seep into every aspect of daily life ("the personal is political") - in liberalism, to a degree even the communists weren't able to achieve, despite their best efforts. These trends have only gotten worse in the years since the book's release.

Today on MindMatters we talk to Professor Legutko about his books, life under communism, editing samizdat, the recent controversy with his university's "office of safety and equality," and the time he got sued for calling some students "spoiled brats."
