HIV infections are on the rise among university students in Malaysia, with health analysts urging stronger HIV awareness campaigns aimed at young people and easier access to preventive measures.

Some 244 students between 18 and 25 years old were infected last year, a 31 per cent increase from 2021, said Higher Education Minister Zambry Abdul Kadir on Wednesday, with infections across the age group accounting for about 7 per cent of all new HIV cases last year.

Malaysia's 2023 report to the Joint United Nations Programme on HIV/Aids estimated that there were 86,000 people living with HIV in the Southeast Asian nation in 2022, with 80 per cent aware of their condition.

In January last year, Malaysia launched a pilot programme to provide public access to Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis (PrEP), which can lower the chances of getting HIV from sex by over 90 per cent and from injecting drugs by over 70 per cent if taken daily, according to the US Center for Disease Control and Prevention.

Comment: Whilst cultural shifts, travel, and so on, will likely effect the rate of infections in the past decade, the spike recorded in the past few years is likely due to the experimental covid jabs and the harm they cause to the immune system. Malaysia authorised the use of a variety of covid jabs, including AstraZeneca, Pfizer, as well as Sinovac.

Notably STDs, as well as plethora of other disease and illness, that is associated with vaccine damage has surged across much (but seemingly not all) of the planet; and particularly those which deployed the mRNA jabs:

CDC says 30% surge in accidental drowning due to lockdown; US school athlete and 'good swimmer' dies 'mysteriously' in pool

Drowning deaths are on the rise for the first time in decades, which officials call an 'urgent' public health issue.

Figures released Tuesday by the CDC found that rates of accidental drowning increased by nearly 30 percent from 2020 to 2022, the latest data available.

The rates were also highest in racial and ethnic minorities, with deaths highest in American Indians and increasing by over a quarter in black Americans.

The CDC also revealed that more than half of Americans have never had a formal swim lesson, and one in three black adults don't know how to swim.

The grim report serves as further evidence of pandemic lockdowns disadvantaging vulnerable groups such as black and Hispanic Americans, as the researchers blamed pools shutting down during Covid and a shortage of swim instructors.

Comment: Without more data it's difficult to conclude one way or another, however note that apparently even the CDC appears to be speculating for the cause in this surge.

Indeed, the cost of living and lockdowns have had a significant affect on people's lives, so it's likely that at least these deaths may partly be due to that.

However, it seems likely that the experimental covid jabs may be implicated in at least some of those deaths.

The following incident occurred on the 2nd of July, two months after the alert from the CDC:
Star high school athlete dies 'out of nowhere' after being pulled out of swimming pool

An incoming freshman football player expected to be a star athlete died days after almost drowning in the pool at Chino High School.

Pending a full investigation into the mysterious incident, the student hasn't been identified by the school district, NBC Los Angeles reported.

The school, located on the outskirts of the Los Angeles metro area, did confirm that the boy was participating in an afternoon activity with the football team when he suffered a medical emergency in the pool on Friday.

Paramedics arrived on the scene within five minutes, at which point the boy had already been pulled from the water, according to the Chino Valley Fire Department.

EMS crews rushed him to the hospital, where doctors were able to keep him alive throughout the weekend. His family made the heart wrenching decision to take him off life support on Sunday.

'We would like to reassure our community that the appropriate staff is examining all of the details surrounding the situation,' Andy Johnston, a spokesperson for the Chino Valley Unified School District, told NBC.

A parent of another player on the football team said they thought the boy was set to be a great athlete.

The parent added that he was a good swimmer, which only raises more questions about how the boy died.

Other students were at the pool when this tragedy unfolded, and they've spoken to investigators, ABC reported.

It's also unclear what state he was in while being transported to the hospital.

Close friends and family of the boy gathered on Sunday at the school's football field to honor his memory. Flowers were left on the track surrounding the field.

Students from the high school swimming in a neighborhood pool - not the pool at the school - shared their shock at the boy's sudden and explained death.

'He just passed away out of nowhere,' said sophomore Jose Juarez.

'He was in the pool, and he was having fun but things happened. I feel bad for his parents and his family.'

The school district said it is making mental health counselors available to students and faculty.

The CDC recently made a tragic announcement that drowning deaths are on the rise for the first time in decades, calling it an 'urgent' public health issue.

Major Australian medical journal publishes article showing negative effectiveness of COVID-19 vaccines

I don't like to say things are huge, but this is huge. As promised, my own little article on COVID-19 vaccine negative effectiveness (where the jab INCREASES one's chance of COVID infection, hospitalisation, and even death) has been published in a major medical journal, the Australian Journal of General Practice. Published by The Royal Australian College of General Practitioners, AJGP is literally THE medical journal for general practitioners (family doctors) in Australia. Also discussed in what became an epic and frank discussion amongst several Australian health professionals are vaccine injuries and 'long COVID' potentially being 'long jab'.

This all started with Tindle's article in AJGP earlier this year, which contained scarcely believable quotable quotes like:
"Because COVID-19 vaccines were approved without long-term safety data and might cause immune dysfunction, it is perhaps premature to assume that past SARS-CoV-2 infection is the sole common factor in long COVID."
He declared that "COVID-19 vaccination per se might contribute to long COVID, giving rise to the colloquial term 'Long Vax(x)'", since the "spike protein of SARS-CoV-2 exhibits pathogenic characteristics and is a possible cause of post-acute sequelae after SARS-CoV-2 infection or COVID-19 vaccination". Not to mention the "class switch to IgG4 antibodies", which Tindle thinks could lead to autoimmunity and cancer.

Significant botulism contamination incident in Russia results in 369 people hospitalised, 1 dead, in just 1 week

Botulism Toxin
© James Cavallini/Science SourceThe botulism toxin comes from Clostridium botulinum bacteria, seen here in a colorized micrograph.
A widespread botulism outbreak in Russia has left one person dead and scores hospitalized after consuming contaminated readymade salads, according to authorities.

Botulism is a rare but severe illness caused by a toxin produced by Clostridium botulinum bacteria. The toxin can lead to paralysis, breathing difficulties, and death. Common sources include improperly canned, preserved, or fermented foods. Symptoms of botulism include severe abdominal pain, vomiting, diarrhea, blurred vision, dry mouth, difficulty swallowing or speaking, and neurological issues.

Over 300 people have been hospitalized in this significant outbreak. By comparison, the U.S. records about 110 botulism cases annually, and the European Union recorded only 82 cases in 2021, according to the European Center for Disease Prevention and Control.


Comment: Which makes this a rather significant outbreak.


Comment: Contamination and poisoning incidents seem to be in the news more frequently in the past few years, and they're often associated with prepared salads that were washed in contaminated water. This is of particular note in the West where pollution limits in waterways have been so corrupted that it seems inevitable that, there, these kinds of incidents will surge:

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) posted a recall by Snapchill LLC of more than 100 coffee products over concerns that they might contain a potentially deadly toxin.

Snapchill said via the FDA announcement earlier this month that it is recalling dozens of its products because "its current process could lead to the growth and production of the deadly toxin in low acid canned foods."

The coffee products were produced by Snapchill, based in Green Bay, Wisconsin, but they can be sold under different coffee roaster names.

The products include a variety of metal can sizes ranging from seven ounces to 12 ounces, according to the notice. They will have the note, "Produced and distributed by Snapchill LLC" under the nutrition facts panel, or "Snapchill Coffee" on the label.

Autism and ADHD rates explode, Public Health™ establishment shrugs

autism vaccines
The statistics tell the story: if you live in America in 2024, chances are you know someone with a kid who has been diagnosed with ADHD and/or autism. They're also likely to be prescribed heavy-duty pharmaceutical drugs like Adderall to cope.

Via Statista (emphasis added):
"According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), the prevalence of autism among U.S. children has risen significantly in recent years. While 6.7 in 1,000 children were diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) in 2000, that number had risen to 27.6 in 1,000 children by 2020. This means that currently 1 in 36 children in the U.S. get diagnosed with ASD, up from 1 in 150 children 20 years ago.

The reasons for this increase in prevalence are not fully understood and likely complex. Some possible factors that have been proposed include better awareness and screening for autism, changes in diagnostic criteria and environmental or genetic factors. Regardless of the reasons, this rise in the number of children with autism highlights the importance of early identification and intervention to help children with ASD reach their full potential."
Acolytes of The Science™ will simply claim over and over that the reason there appears to be more autism at an ever-increasing clip is that doctors are just getting better at diagnosing it.

The reason, for instance, they´ll claim, that autism is virtually non-existent in populations that pass on vaccines for kids and all other manner of modern pharmaceutical interventions, like the Amish, is that their autism simply isn't diagnosed properly.

'Outbreak' of West Nile Fever reported in Israel, 7 hospitalized in Tel Aviv

Seven people recently hospitalized in the Tel Aviv area were found to be infected with West Nile fever, a disease spread by mosquitos that can be fatal.

Five of the patients were treated at the Ichilov Hospital in Tel Aviv and were apparently infected in northern areas of the city, according to Hebrew media reports on Monday. Two are still in serious condition.

Channel 12 reported that another two patients were recently hospitalized at the Sheba Medical Center, in Ramat Gan near Tel Aviv, but have since been discharged.

Comment: It remains to be seen just what impact the outbreak will have, but with the vast majority of Israelis having received an mRNA covid jab, and the accumulative damage that can do to the immune system, they are certainly more vulnerable than ever before:

If covid vaccines saved 20 million lives, why did so few unvaccinated die in winter 2021?

Despite the 'pandemic response' being a non-issue in the General Election (all parties were compliant and consequently complicit in the single most disastrous policy ever followed by any Government) the issue of vaccine harms hasn't entirely gone away. A paper published in the BMJ Public Health journal and covered in a front page piece by Sarah Knapton in the Telegraph gave the issue much needed credence. This was followed by David Davis MP repeating a call for a proper inquiry into excess deaths and a post from Carl Heneghan and Tom Jefferson, published on their Substack Trust the Evidence and reprinted in the Daily Sceptic.

Heneghan and Jefferson state:
Suddenly, it's okay to question the vaccine narrative. The Lancet estimated that vaccinations prevented 19·8 million excess deaths. Mathematical modelling should not be used to justify the policy — the latest report shows the numbers don't add up.
Of course, it isn't only the Lancet that has relied on nonsensical mathematical modelling to justify widespread adoption of mRNA technology. Disappointingly, both Rod Liddle and Fraser Nelson in recent articles published in the Times and Telegraph respectively repeated the farcical claim that the AstraZeneca vaccine saved six million lives. Claims that 500,000 lives were saved by lockdown, that 20 million lives were saved by mRNA vaccines or six million were saved by AstraZeneca all rely on modelling. However, we have real-world data that paint a very different picture.

Johnson & Johnson to pay $700 million to 42 states in talc baby powder lawsuit

talcum powder
Johnson & Johnson will pay $700 million to settle a lawsuit by dozens of states that accused the pharmaceutical industry giant of intentionally misleading customers about the safety of its talc-based baby powder, officials announced.

J&J sold products with talc for more than 100 years before discontinuing them globally in 2023 after facing thousands of lawsuits. The coalition of 43 attorneys general found Johnson & Johnson failed to disclose that the talc sometimes contained asbestos and that asbestos is harmful and can lead to cancer.

Johnson & Johnson baby powder is now largely made from corn starch rather than talc. The company did not admit guilt as part of the settlement.

Dozens of hikers became ill during trips to waterfalls near the Grand Canyon, source of sickness not yet identified

Havasupai reservation
Havasupai reservation
Dozens of hikers say they fell ill during trips to a popular Arizona tourist destination that features towering blue-green waterfalls deep in a gorge neighboring Grand Canyon National Park.

Madelyn Melchiors, a 32-year-old veterinarian from Kingman, Arizona, said she was vomiting severely Monday evening and had a fever that endured for days after camping on the Havasupai reservation.

She eventually hiked out to her car in a weakened state through stiflingly hot weather and was thankful a mule transported her pack several miles up a winding trail, she said.

"I said, 'If someone can just pack out my 30-pound pack, I think I can just limp along,'" said Melchiors, an experienced and regular backpacker. Afterward, "I slept 16 hours and drank a bunch of electrolytes. I'm still not normal, but I will be OK. I'm grateful for that."
