Covid shot
A minority of health care workers received an updated COVID-19 vaccine, according to a newly reported survey from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

Just 40.2 percent of health care personnel who responded to the survey said they received a COVID-19 shot between the fall of 2024 and early 2025, CDC researchers said on April 2.

The rate of vaccination was higher, 76.3 percent, for influenza.

The survey was conducted online from March 26 to April 17 in 2025, following the 2024-2025 respiratory virus season. The season begins in the fall of each year and runs into the next year.

Some 2,650 health care workers responded to the survey.

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 evidence of disease (32.8%) or tumor regression (15.6%). An additional 36.1% reported disease stabilization. This means more than four out of five patients reported either improvement or stabilization of their cancer.

Whenever the American Heart Association publishes an abstract that is not peer-reviewed for a study that is not even published, you have to turn on your BS meter and apply some good old common sense.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 significantly. This is called cherry-picking data to create your own reality in discordance with objective reality.
If people want to stop taking melatonin based on this abstract, so be it. As is so often the case these days, it's easier to blame everything except the COVID-19 era (i.e. the vaccine).

From actual peer reviewed and published studies, here are some of the benefits people would be missing:

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

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&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 active and sporty, she is so disabled that her two children, aged 8 and 11, have been certified as young carers.
"I genuinely thought that it was just going to be another vaccine. Take it, get on with things. Instead, my life has been reduced to trying to manage symptoms every single day."

Comment: Pandemic orders may have cost thousands of lives, reports The Telegraph:
From March to December 2022, there were 1,630 excess deaths from colorectal and anal cancer. The true number of excess deaths will be unknown for years because data on five-year survival rates are not yet available.

The number of deaths from heart attacks increased, and the condition of people who needed hip replacements deteriorated to the point that surgery was no longer an option.

The delay in children and young people's access to mental health services also led to a marked increase in the severity of their conditions.

One study found that a general practice with 10,000 patients might have more than 400 undiagnosed long-term conditions that would have been diagnosed in normal times.
"During the pandemic, barriers to accessing healthcare for non-Covid-19 conditions and changes to the delivery of services led to marked declines in rate of diagnosis, referrals and specialist treatment."
The report made 10 recommendations in preparation for a future pandemic, which included increasing capacity in urgent and emergency care, improving data collection on those most at risk, increasing support for healthcare workers and recording any deaths within the profession.

One bereaved family member had told the inquiry that they had "to say goodbye to their loved one by text message, hoping that a nurse would read it out".

The inquiry also examined reports of "blanket" do not resuscitate orders being issued during the pandemic, with some family members claiming they had not been properly consulted about such decisions.
"During the course of the pandemic, there were reports of inappropriate and/or blanket DNACPR (do not attempt cardiopulmonary resuscitation) notices being imposed on groups of people, such as those with learning disabilities or older people."

Study finds sunlight penetrates the human body, improving mitochondrial function and vision

sunlight improves vision
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 exposure, a subgroup wore foil-wrapped head coverings to fully block light from reaching the eyes.

Comment: How could the human body not optimize the most important part of its environment?

COVID inquiry finds lockdowns may have cost thousands of lives

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&E attendances for life-threatening emergencies such as heart attacks.

Comment: "These inquiries and studies should bury any remaining excuses for repeating such experiments" - but they won't. Despite the mountains of evidence now available suggesting strongly that the lockdowns and "treatments" were a pure and unmitigated disaster, we are likely to see the same sorts of policies repeated again and again - until the world of normal and aware people say "no more!," and actually mean it.

'Radical' Biden Judge Reverses RFK Jr. On Trans-Child Surgeries, Other Procedures

HHS Director Robert F. Kennedy Jr.
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 standards of health care."

Comment: And even more lawfare against RFK Jr. and HHS:
A federal judge on Monday temporarily blocked federal health officials from cutting the number of vaccines recommended for every child, and said U.S. Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. likely violated federal procedures in revamping a key vaccine advisory committee.

The decision halted an order by Kennedy — announced in January — to end broad recommendations for all children to be vaccinated against flu, rotavirus, hepatitis A, hepatitis B, some forms of meningitis and RSV.

It also stopped a meeting of a Kennedy-appointed vaccine advisory committee, which was set to convene this week in Atlanta.

The judge's order, however, is not the final word. The blocks are temporary, pending either a trial or a decision for summary judgment.

Federal health officials indicated they planned to appeal.

DMSO- The Cheap, Forgotten Therapy Quietly Treating What Medicine Calls "Incurable"


The Vigilant Fox
Thu, 19 Mar 2026 20:48 UTC
DMSO rocks
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 "incurable" may not be after all.

Colorectal cancer is now the most common cause of cancer deaths in the US for people under 50

colon cancer
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 wrote.

Comment: The irony, people stopped smoking and colon cancer rates just went up. And let's not forget the one pro-cancerous factor that the Western population got exposed to, whether they wanted it or not.

Crying wolf? CDC says 'little-known' virus with no vaccine spreading in US

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."
