      <title>Ancient children's teeth reveal a syphilis-like disease was spreading in Vietnam 4,000 years ago</title>
      <link>https://www.sott.net/article/505506-Ancient-childrens-teeth-reveal-a-syphilis-like-disease-was-spreading-in-Vietnam-4000-years-ago</link>
      <description>Remains from three Stone Age children in Vietnam may challenge long-standing ideas about the origin of syphilis, scientists say. Archaeologists in Vietnam have made a discovery that could rewrite scientists' understanding of where syphilis originated. The team found the Stone Age skeletons of three people who had a debilitating bacterial disease that left marks on their bones and teeth. This disease is in the same family as syphilis, and the discovery of it in prehistoric Vietnam could challenge the idea that syphilis-like diseases originated in the Americas. In a study published March 13 in the International Journal of Osteoarchaeology, the researchers documented three cases of congenital treponematosis at two Neolithic sites in Vietnam dating to around 4,100 to 3,300 years ago. Treponemal diseases are a group of infections caused by the bacterium Treponema pallidum. These diseases, caused by different subspecies of the bacterium, include syphilis, bejel and yaws. For decades,...</description>

      <title>Testing: How to create a pandemic of fake disease</title>
      <link>https://www.sott.net/article/505466-Testing-How-to-create-a-pandemic-of-fake-disease</link>
      <description>Last week, I was reading the latest module of the UK's Covid Inquiry while working on our most recent Covid Factcheck, and I came across this paragraph... From 24 June 2020, hospitals in England were required to undertake testing of asymptomatic patients upon admission and subsequently During the "pandemic", hospitals were testing all patients for Covid - symptoms or no - multiple times. I found myself wondering if people really see how directives like this one were used to build a pandemic from nothing at all. With reports of a "new variant" tearing across the United States, I thought now would be a good time to remind people how exactly "Covid" tests worked and what they were for. Not in the biochemical way. We're not talking RNA here, we're talking about psycho-social manipulation: How test protocols can be used to create the impression of a pandemic that doesn't actually exist. So, to help people understand - and help those who already understand explain it to others - I wanted...</description>

      <description>Millions of victims worldwide... In a hearing of the Corona Inquiry Commission in the German Bundestag in March 2026, former Pfizer toxicologist Dr. Helmut Sterz voiced sharp criticism regarding the approval of the mRNA vaccine Comirnaty (Pfizer).

      <title>A history in 4 Psy-Ops: Has Iran ALWAYS been a member of the Club?</title>
      <link>https://www.sott.net/article/505037-A-history-in-4-Psy-Ops-Has-Iran-ALWAYS-been-a-member-of-the-Club</link>
      <description>When the war with Iran officially began on Saturday, I annoyed quite a few people by replying to James Delingpole on twitter with this comment: I stand by it. In fact I can amplify it. There's ample evidence to show we're already living in the post-nation age, and this was made explicitly clear by the Covid "pandemic". Iran's vital, early role in the Covid operation is one of the facts that most strongly requires us to be cautious about the current war narrative , but it's a development that likely predates that era-defining psy-op. In fact, I would argue that an examination of the recent history of Iran shows that they have consistently taken part in psy-ops and media narratives, and that this demonstrates collusion with Western governments and indeed the globalist factions therein. Starting with the birth of the current regime itself...</description>

      <title>First ancient human Herpesvirus genomes document their deep history with humans</title>
      <link>https://www.sott.net/article/503806-First-ancient-human-Herpesvirus-genomes-document-their-deep-history-with-humans</link>
      <description>Genomic data confirm that certain human herpesviruses became part of the human genome thousands of years ago. For the first time, scientists have reconstructed ancient genomes of Human betaherpesvirus 6A and 6B (HHV-6A/B) from archaeological human remains more than two millennia old. The study, led by the University of Vienna and University of Tartu (Estonia) and published in Science Advances, confirms that these viruses have been evolving with and within humans since at least the Iron Age. The findings trace the long history of HHV-6 integration into human chromosomes and suggest that HHV-6A lost this ability early on. HHV-6B infects about 90 percent of children by the age of two and is best known as the cause of roseola infantum - or "sixth disease" - the leading cause of febrile seizures in young children. Together with its close relative HHV-6A, it belongs to a group of widespread human herpesviruses that typically establish lifelong, latent infections after an initial mild...</description>

      <title>The evidence is clear: Masks don't do anything</title>
      <link>https://www.sott.net/article/503463-The-evidence-is-clear-Masks-dont-do-anything</link>
      <description>We're being hit with the "Super Flu" (allegedly), and that means everyone wants us to wear masks again. We went over this (a lot) in 2020. Then we went over it again in 2023. Masks don't work, they never worked, and - prior to 2020 - the academic literature was very clear on this. In a 2016 literature review, infection control expert Dr John Hardie found [emphasis added]: Between 2004 and 2016 at least a dozen research or review articles have been published on the inadequacies of face masks. All agree that the poor facial fit and limited filtration characteristics of face masks make them unable to prevent the wearer inhaling airborne particles. In their well-referenced 2011 article on respiratory protection for healthcare workers, Drs. Harriman and Brosseau conclude that, "facemasks will not protect against the inhalation of aerosols." [...] Health care workers have long relied heavily on surgical masks to provide protection against influenza and other infections. Yet there are no...</description>

      <link>https://www.sott.net/article/503324-The-viruses-are-coming-the-viruses-are-coming</link>
      <description>A recent TrendCompass heading read, "Are new &amp;amp; improved lockdowns coming?" In that article, I referred to a few strange news items that seemed to point to the possible imposition of new lockdowns in the near future. First, there was the bizarre 1,531-page COVID-19 inquiry by Baroness Heather Hallett DBE. The Baroness wasn't concerned about accountability for one of the greatest trainwrecks in human history or who was behind it. Her main concern was about how to do it right the next time. Then there was EU Commission president Ursula von der Lying who mentioned, in passing, during her State of the Union speech in September that "We are on the brink, if not even at the start of another global health crisis." Then we had warnings from the ECB that the financial system is becoming unstable. Six days after my report, on 27 November, Reuters - the ever truthful news service - announced that, "Bird flu virus could risk pandemic worse than COVID 19 if it mutates..." According to...</description>

      <title>Are new &amp; improved lockdowns coming?</title>
      <link>https://www.sott.net/article/503130-Are-new-improved-lockdowns-coming</link>
      <description>Yesterday The Telegraph published an article about the Right and Honourable Baroness Heather Hallett DBE's 1,531-page COVID-19 inquiry which concluded that 2020 lockdowns could have been "avoided entirely" had the government imposed "stringent restrictions" such as social distancing and face masks sooner and more decisively. By the way, for anyone impressed by Ms. HH's nobility, know that you too can be a noble. You can buy the title of baron or baroness at this link. Here's the gist of Ms. HH's conclusions: "Had stringent restrictions short of a mandatory lockdown been introduced earlier than March 16th 2020 - when the number of COVID-19 cases was lower - the mandatory lockdown might have been shorter or, conceivably, avoided entirely. ... At the very least, there would have been time to establish what the effect of those restrictions on levels of incidence were and whether there was a sustained reduction in social contact. This would have enabled the governments to assess whether...</description>

      <title>Quick Take...The Covid inquiry's (incredibly predictable) findings</title>
      <link>https://www.sott.net/article/503065-Quick-Take-The-Covid-inquirys-incredibly-predictable-findings</link>
      <description>The UK's Covid Enquiry has published its second report, and its conclusion is as relevant as it is predictable. To quote Sky News: The response of the UK's four governments to the pandemic was a "repeated case of too little, too late" and tens of thousands of lives could have been saved had lockdowns been introduced faster, the COVID-19 Inquiry has found That's all they were ever going to say, and it's all we really need to know. The full report is over seven hundred and fifty pages across two volumes, a Tolstoy novel of irrelevance. This is the point of formal inquiries, months of quasi-meaningless testimony whose only purpose is to eat up time until the public memory has faded, then lend verisimilitude to the pre-written revisionist conclusion.</description>

      <title>For anyone planning on getting or mandating others to get an influenza vaccine (flu shot)</title>
      <link>https://www.sott.net/article/502552-For-anyone-planning-on-getting-or-mandating-others-to-get-an-influenza-vaccine-flu-shot</link>
      <description>For anyone contemplating getting an influenza vaccine (flu shot) or planning to pressure or mandate someone else to get one: A meta-analysis of existing flu shot studies of healthy children by Cochrane (effectively owned by vaccine zealot Bill Gates) concluded that despite decades of published studies, it "could find no convincing evidence that [flu] vaccines can reduce mortality, hospital admissions, serious complications, or community transmission of influenza." Read that carefully: no convincing evidence — none — that flu shots lowered the chances of dying, being admitted to the hospital, suffering serious complications from the flu, or transmitting the flu to others. In fact, studies have found those vaccinated for flu have a statistically significant increased rate of respiratory illnesses. Meaning, it increases the risk of having other respiratory illnesses. For example, a placebo-controlled efficacy (not safety) study by researchers at the University of Hong Kong compared...</description>

      <title>Of Course He Did . . .</title>
      <link>https://www.sott.net/article/502308-Of-Course-He-Did</link>
      <description>Donald Trump just got his latest "COVID" shot. This indicates he still believes that these shots are vaccines - which is not far-removed from believing in Yogic Flying. (Just believe hard enough and you'll fly!) It'd be funny were it not for what it implies about Trump's views regarding these drugs, which he has steadfastly refused to repudiate and implicitly endorses by taking them (assuming he actually did take them; it's possible it's all for show). If the president takes these drugs, then what does the president think about those who prefer not to? Probably that they're "losers" and "stupid." His defenders - some of them - say he never actually forced these drugs on anyone; that he merely facilitated the Warp Speeding of them and deserves credit for that because (so these some say) the availability of these drugs ended the "pandemic." More finely, they claim the availability of the drugs ended the lockdowns and the endless (so it seemed at the time) attempt to force the Face...</description>

      <title>The Forbidden Question</title>
      <link>https://www.sott.net/article/501280-The-Forbidden-Question</link>
      <description>My personal experiences seem to lag a bit behind the general population. I have not, until recently, noticed too many people succumbing to strange cancers. Now, quite a few have come up in my personal life, as well as in my professional life (experiences of my psychotherapy patients). We have, of course, heard for years that one of the fallouts from the irresponsible release of the COVID-19 mRNA vaccine was the possibility of increased cases of all sorts of cancers. Reports from doctors to support this reality have increased over the years, and of course, our personal experiences with friends and family, and news reports of people dying of cancer in mysterious ways (too young, death too quickly, rare cancers) have corroborated the doctors' concerns. Proponents of this view argue that the vaccines, introduced globally in late 2020, have triggered an unprecedented increase in cancer diagnoses, particularly among younger individuals, with cancers presenting as unusually aggressive and...</description>

      <title>Tusk calls out Chapel Hill for heinous role in global Covid death and misery</title>
      <link>https://www.sott.net/article/500154-Tusk-calls-out-Chapel-Hill-for-heinous-role-in-global-Covid-death-and-misery</link>
      <description>Readers of the Tusk know I've spent the better part of my life digging into heretical science — research that the mainstream either refuses to look at or pretends doesn't exist. From the Younger Dryas Impact Hypothesis to the possibility of pre-Ice Age high technology, we've always asked the forbidden questions and followed the data wherever it leads. This week, I've taken that same instinct — what some would call a contrarian reflex — and pointed it in a new direction: one that hits close to home. I've published an op-ed in the Carolina Journal on the subject of UNC-Chapel Hill's virology program, and the deeply troubling evidence that it played a central role in creating the SARS-CoV-2 virus that killed over 20 million people globally. Yes, you read that right. And no, it's not hyperbole. This isn't just speculation. Thanks to court-ordered documents pried loose by the nonprofit watchdog US Right to Know, we now know that Ralph Baric's lab at UNC: Engineered novel SARS-related...</description>

      <title>A scary new "Covid" variant? What year is this?</title>
      <link>https://www.sott.net/article/499806-A-scary-new-Covid-variant-What-year-is-this</link>
      <description>There's a new Covid variant "surging through" Asia, according to this headline. It has already spread to the US and Europe as well, according to this article. I'm guessing the word "surging" was in the circulated memo, because it appears in almost every article about this. All of which makes me ask... This might seem like a non sequitur, but I'm going somewhere. Did you know that Disney's cynical monetization of nostalgia has seen them so aggressively work through their back catalogue of animated classics they are now releasing a live action remake of Moana, a film that's less than ten years old, and which had an animated sequel released only last year? Have you tried following the MCU lately? What was once a massive project of coordinated story telling, a broad church working on a shared agenda to a singular end point, has now collapsed into a shapeless, pointless exercise in repetitive re-invention, insincere self-mockery and hopelessly clumsy political messaging. Are you seeing...</description>

      <title>What Joe Biden's cancer can (and should) teach us about The Media</title>
      <link>https://www.sott.net/article/499654-What-Joe-Bidens-cancer-can-and-should-teach-us-about-The-Media</link>
      <description>Last night the news broke that former President Joe Biden has been diagnosed with stage 4 prostate cancer, which has already metastasized to his bones. The conversation has gone in two predictable directions. On the one hand you have the predictable "out pouring of support" from fans of Team Blue, "liberal" journalists and celebrities. On the other hand you have cynical commentary from Team Red, questioning the timing of the announcement and wondering how someone with such a high profile and (presumably) first class medical care could have cancer missed until such a late stage. A third, quieter, option is to suggest a connection between this cancer and the Covid "vaccine". (A possibility I reject out of hand, becasue I don't believe there is any chance at all he was really given the experimental shot.) But all of these conversations miss the point. The question is not "what caused Biden's cancer?" or "why did they cover up Biden's cancer?" it's "why are they telling us Biden has...</description>

      <title>Singapore's draconian vaccine mandate: Citizens face jail time for refusing FORCED medical procedures</title>
      <link>https://www.sott.net/article/499495-Singapores-draconian-vaccine-mandate-Citizens-face-jail-time-for-refusing-FORCED-medical-procedures</link>
      <description>Singapore's descent into medical tyranny In a shocking move that tramples on fundamental human rights, Singapore has amended its Infectious Diseases Act (IDA) to force medical procedures on its citizens under threat of imprisonment. The amendments, enacted in 2023 and 2024, grant the Director-General of Health unchecked power to mandate vaccines — even in the absence of an active outbreak — while stripping citizens of legal protections against government overreach. Under Sections 47, 65, and 67 of the IDA, Singaporeans who refuse government-ordered vaccinations can be fined up to 10,000 (SGD) or jailed for six months for a first "offense." Repeat offenders face double the penalties, with fines up to 20,000 and a year behind bars. Worse yet, Section 67 absolves government officials of all liability, meaning citizens harmed by forced medical interventions have no legal recourse. A direct assault on medical freedom and informed consent The amendments represent a blatant violation of...</description>

      <title>Maybe it's in the Water</title>
      <link>https://www.sott.net/article/499247-Maybe-its-in-the-Water</link>
      <description>On August 16, 1951, the quiet town of Pont-Saint-Esprit in southern France was struck by a bizarre outbreak. Residents suddenly experienced severe symptoms: nausea, insomnia, and vivid hallucinations. People reported seeing terrifying visions — snakes crawling out of their stomachs, fire engulfing their bodies, or blood dripping from the walls of their homes. Some cases were extreme: an 11-year-old boy attempted to strangle his grandmother, a man jumped from a window claiming he was an airplane, and others were restrained in straitjackets or chained to their beds. By the end, at least 5 people died (some sources say 7), dozens were institutionalized, and over 300 were affected. I remember as a 13-year-old kid reading about this in some magazine (I recall it was LIFE, but I could never find it since). For some reason, it terrified me and lived with me in my memory for 50-plus years. Recently, one of my readers turned me on to the story, and much has been written about it rather...</description>

      <title>WHO finalizes pandemic treaty</title>
      <link>https://www.sott.net/article/499214-WHO-finalizes-pandemic-treaty</link>
      <description>The World Health Organization (WHO) has been scheming to finalize the Pandemic Treaty to ensure global cohesion during the next pandemic. Over 190 member nations have agreed to surrender sovereignty in the name of public health, permitting an unelected organization of individuals to detail how they will respond to the next round of government imposed biological warfare. WHO Director General Dr. Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, who is not a medical doctor but a Klaus Schwab appointee, declared this as a global victory. Interestingly, Schwab resigned as soon as the treaty was finalized. "The nations of the world made history in Geneva today," Tedros declared. "In reaching consensus on the Pandemic Agreement, not only did they put in place a generational accord to make the world safer, they have also demonstrated that multilateralism is alive and well, and that in our divided world, nations can still work together to find common ground, and a shared response to shared threats. The One...</description>

      <description>I'm writing this now, because Celia Farber has written an article exploring a toxic connection between citric acid, a very common ingredient in food and nutritional supplements, and Aspergillus Fumigatus, a mold/fungus. That mold was used in secret US Army experiments on US citizens. NY Times, December 23, 1976: "In one test in a warehouse at Mechanicsburg, the Army used a fungal substance that it acknowledged could cause disease. The substance was aspergillus fumigatus, which is commonly found in compost piles and damp hay and can cause aspergillosis, an uncommon sporadic disease that can take the form of asthmatic attacks or infection in the external ear." Deseret News, via NY Times, July 27, 1994: "...an early germ-warfare test. It took place in 1951 near Newport News, Va....The Army released an organism called Aspergillus fumigatus at the Norfolk Naval Supply Center because most workers were black. For some reason, the testers imagined an enemy might target the blacks at...</description>

      <description>"Follow the science" they say, right up until they destroy it In August 2021, as the masses were being coerced and cajoled into vaccinations, the government announced a gigantic long term study with 10,000 Australians that would run for five years. They promised they would include the vaccinated and unvaccinated, and generate 100,000 samples, and 11 million datapoints. No stone would be left unturned to make sure the vaccines were safe and effective. "The Science" was being used to reassure the people. Less than two years later the data must have looked terrible, because they suddenly stopped the study. They muttered something about archiving the data until more funding was available. (Sure, sure). Now, they want to quietly destroy the data and make sure no one can ever use it, or find out the secrets it hides with an FOI application. The cost of the entire project was $20 million, a pitifully small fraction of the $18 billion we spent on Australia's Covid 19 treatment experiments,...</description>

      <title>Air New Zealand employees take airline to court over Covid-19 vaccination mandate</title>
      <link>https://www.sott.net/article/498615-Air-New-Zealand-employees-take-airline-to-court-over-Covid-19-vaccination-mandate</link>
      <description>An Air New Zealand Captain and engineer have told an employment court about the impact they felt after refusing to be vaccinated against Covid-19 in 2021, and being forced to take annual leave and leave without pay. The duo are part of 33 Air New Zealand employees who are challenging the company's Covid-19 vaccination policy in the Employment Court. Charlotte Parkhill, who is the lawyer representing the 33, said in opening her case that there are two questions the judge needs to determine - whether any employer can lawfully adopt a vaccination policy, and was it lawful and reasonable for the airline to have adopted the policy in the circumstances that existed at the time. Parkhill said these questions weren't just important questions of law, but of fundamental importance. "They involve the intersection between basic human rights, health and safety and employment law." Parkhill said the 33 had a "torrid time" during the pandemic and had been marginalised. "They have been labelled...</description>

      <title>How Covid 'vaccines' paved the way for mRNA Cancer 'vaccines'</title>
      <link>https://www.sott.net/article/498409-How-Covid-vaccines-paved-the-way-for-mRNA-Cancer-vaccines</link>
      <description>The unprecedentedly speedy development and approval of the various Covid "vaccines" - most using previously unsuccessful mRNA technology - is considered a scientific miracle by ardent followers of The ScienceTM. Many others - us included - see it another way: one of the greatest scams ever perpetrated against a scared public, and a potentially incredibly dangerous and even deadly one. But the damage done by that process doesn't stop at the Covid "vaccines" themselves, they have opened the door for more and more "vaccines" to be rushed to market. That includes potentially "bespoke cancer vaccines", of which there are currently hundreds of medical trials taking place around the world. Earlier today Wired published an interview with Lennard Lee, oncologist and director at the Ellison Institute of Technology in Oxford, headlined: Covid Vaccines Have Paved the Way for Cancer Vaccines It's quite an interesting read. For one thing, if I'm understanding Dr Lee's words correctly, these...</description>

      <title>The hidden hand: monstrous conspiracies and the swamp</title>
      <link>https://www.sott.net/article/497673-The-hidden-hand-monstrous-conspiracies-and-the-swamp</link>
      <description>The trail of evidence almost always leads to the moneylending oligarchies. [This post was originally published at I-System TrendCompass] Mayer Amschel Rothschild (1744-1812) allegedly said, "Let me issue and control a nation's money and I care not who writes the laws." This statement has been very widely quoted, but what, exactly does it mean? Rothschild's contemporary Napoleon said that, "When a government is dependent upon bankers for money, they and not the leaders of the government control the situation." One of the directors of the Bank of England, Josiah Stamp (1880-1941) said, "Banking was conceived in iniquity and was born in sin. ... if you wish to remain the slaves of bankers and pay the cost of your own slavery, let them continue to create money and control credit." Are events spontaneous, or is there a hidden hand? But it is difficult to relate these quotes with day-to-day events. We can observe our leaders' statements and actions; we can see the activities of...</description>

      <link>https://www.sott.net/article/496691-Why-the-Negative-is-now-most-important</link>
      <description>We are being brainwashed to believe everything is just fine. Everything except a few things that the powers that be want us to think are not fine, but we will be protected from them by the Great Multicolored Hope. These sanctioned bad things include Trump, Putin, Covid germs (along with a host of others, named and not yet named), Racists, Misogynists, LGTBQ++-phobes, Palestinians, Iranians, and a litany of other little things too numerous to mention. The "badness" each of these things hold is determined by TPTB, and can come and go on a whim, only to be replaced by whatever else might strike their fancy. Common sense, and maybe a little bit of experience, might lead us to believe there are other scary things lurking under the bed that we should be frightened of, like US/NATO provoked nuclear war, genocide (pick a place), starvation, ineffective and dangerous vaccines and other prescription drugs, corruption in medicine, corruption in food production, chemtrails, on and on and on....</description>

      <title>More evidence that Orange Man is Bad</title>
      <link>https://www.sott.net/article/496321-More-evidence-that-Orange-Man-is-Bad</link>
      <description>There are people who hope Trump is good. Or at least, not as bad as the alternative we were presented with as the only alternative to him. Which worked really well in that it prompted many people - me among them - appalled by the prospect of the only alternative to him - to vote for him. Which - in my case, at least - would perhaps be phrased more accurately as voting against her. I wanted her to lose, because I knew we would lose if Communism came into power. Or - rather - remained in power. The Orange Man seemed like the better alternative. Now I am not so sure. Have you seen the statement he issued regarding his choice to be the next surgeon general? Regarding that woman who might as well be Dr. Fauci all over again? "During the COVID 19 pandemic", it reads - which tells us the Orange Man still does not understand it was a contrived mass-panic event and not a pandemic - "she worked on the front lines in New York City," as if there were "front lines" during the mass-panic event,...</description>

      <title>A Tale of Two PSYOPS</title>
      <link>https://www.sott.net/article/496186-A-Tale-of-Two-PSYOPS</link>
      <description>Once upon a time, on a planet called Earth, there was born a global-capitalist empire. It was the first global empire in the history of empires. It dominated the entire planet. No one knew what to call the empire, because there had never been anything like it in history. It had no external adversaries, so it had nothing left to do but "clear and hold," i.e., neutralize internal resistance and consolidate its domination of the planet. So that is what it set about doing. It did this first in the territories of its final ideological adversary, an empire called the Soviet Union, the ideology of which was known as "Communism." This was known as the "Post-Cold-War Era." It did this next in the Greater Middle East, where people were still trying to live their lives according to a religion known as "Islam." This was known as the "Global War on Terror." The Global War on Terror was originally intended to go on forever, and it would have, and it will, but it had to be temporarily suspended,...</description>

      <title>Mysterious record methane surge since 2020 was not fossil fuels but '90% due to microbes'</title>

      <description>Nobody checked the carbon-13 ratios! Wouldn't you know it — 150 nations signed the Global Methane Pledge without even bothering to check if the methane was man-made. Methane — the second most hated Greenhouse gas — spiked to record historic levels in the last few years, over 1,900 parts per billion. In 2019, even the WEF scientists admitted they couldn't explain the baffling rise, and then in 2020, the world of methane went into the twilight zone. We shut down the modern world due to the pandemic, and methane levels rose even faster. It seems many have been blaming fossil fuels for the global surge in emissions, but forgot to check the C13 isotopes. Somehow we spend millions on breathalysing cows, measuring their burps, and feeding them seaweed, but didn't think to do the basic chemistry. How could that be, you might wonder... 158 nations agreed to cut methane emissions by 30% by 2030, but none of them audited the science even though very strange things were happening. (The point...</description>

      <title>Norway reports outbreak of bluetongue disease in sheep, amidst rise in infections across Europe</title>
      <link>https://www.sott.net/article/494613-Norway-reports-outbreak-of-bluetongue-disease-in-sheep-amidst-rise-in-infections-across-Europe</link>
      <description>Norway has reported an outbreak of bluetongue disease on a sheep farm in the southern part of the country, the World Organisation for Animal Health (WOAH) said on Friday. Bluetongue can be deadly for domestic ruminants such as sheep, cattle and goats. A new variant of the disease has been circulating in northern Europe since late last year, leading to vaccination campaigns in affected countries like France. Comment: It remains to be seen just how effective this vaccine is: France detects bird flu outbreak on fully vaccinated duck farm The outbreak in Norway was the country's first since 2010, though the strain of the virus was not yet identified, WOAH said in a note, citing information from the Norwegian authorities.</description>

      <title>So...What's the deal with Gaza's polio vaccination campaign?</title>
      <link>https://www.sott.net/article/494584-So-Whats-the-deal-with-Gazas-polio-vaccination-campaign</link>
      <description>Two weeks ago, the first case of polio was detected in Gaza for 25 years, leaving a ten month-old child partially paralyzed and forcing decisive action from the World Health Organization. Doctors were dispatched to Gaza with over a million doses of polio vaccine, with the aim of vaccinating 640,000 children in record time. Israel and Hamas even agreed to quote-unquote "humanitarian" pauses in the bombing for a few hours every day to get the vaccinations done. The good news - according to the WHO - is that all these efforts have been successful so far, and they are actually vaccinating more children than they planned too. ...And the world breathed a sign of relief. Thankfully the starving, homeless children of Gaza won't get polio as they crouch under the rubble of their homes praying the next batch of cluster bombs misses them. Sometimes a story hits the news and you're initial reaction is simply, "Wait...what?"</description>

      <description>Residents in a Massachusetts town are being urged not to leave their homes after dark due to the spread of a deadly mosquito-borne virus. The Board of Health in Oxford, a city of 13,300 people about 50 miles southwest of Boston, has set an outdoor curfew in hopes it will reduce the chances of people being bitten by mosquitoes which carry Eastern Equine Encephalitis (EEE). It comes after a resident was the first human to contract the rare and untreatable illness - known as 'Triple E' - domestically in nearly four years. Triple E causes a fever and brain swelling and can lead to seizures and comas. One-third of people infected with EEE die and those who recover are often left with lifelong physical and mental difficulties.</description>

      <title>Injecting Babies: 1986 v Today</title>
      <link>https://www.sott.net/article/494225-Injecting-Babies-1986-v-Today</link>
      <description>Important reminder regarding the explosive growth in the vaccine schedule since 1986. If you have not seen this before, please take a moment to really let this image we created sink in — and keep in mind that this only reflects the vaccines given during pregnancy and the first year of life (there are far more thereafter on the current schedule): Also keep in mind that virtually every single one of today's vaccines was developed by a pharma company knowing it would not face liability for injuries caused by these products. This is because, as most of you know, the National Childhood Vaccine Injury Act of 1986 gave them immunity from having to pay for harms. And chronic childhood diseases, many of which are autoimmune or immune-mediated, have exploded from 12.4% in the early 1980s to over 50 percent of children today. CDC and public "health" authorities cannot figure out the cause despite desperately searching (though they haven't studied vaccines, even though smaller independent...</description>

      <description>Africa's public health agency is set to declare an mpox emergency as early as next week, saying the viral infection's rate of spread is alarming, as a new variant moves across Democratic Republic of Congo's borders. Mpox is transmitted through close contact and causes flu-like symptoms and pus-filled lesions. Most cases are mild but it can kill. The new variant, known as Clade Ib and circulating mostly in Congo, appears to spread more easily through routine close contact, as seems to be the case among children. The Africa Centres for Disease Control and Prevention (Africa CDC) Director General, Jean Kaseya, said on Thursday that reported cases in Africa had risen by 79% from 2022-2023 and by 160% from 2023-24.</description>

"The movement of sheep and goats for breeding, fattening and slaughter is banned throughout Greece," the agriculture ministry said. It said new infection cases had been detected in the central Larissa region and in Corinth in the south. The virus, also known as Peste des Petits Ruminants (PPR), can kill between 80% and 100% of infected animals. It does not affect humans.</description>

      <description>A brief report from a stunning recent lecture on health. I'll try to keep this as short as possible, but the charts speak volumes. I've also included links to further resources for anyone inclined to dig deeper. We've all been educated to accept as truth the idea that vaccines are safe and effective. In fact, this has become a cultural "fact" of advanced societies and we're encouraged to never question or doubt it. But the Covid 19 pandemic brought vaccines to focus and an increasing proportion of people are now inclined to question their effectiveness and safety. Over the last three years I have participated in bi-weekly zoom meetings of a group of medical professionals focused on rigorous scientific review of many issues pertaining to public health, including vaccines. Among the lecturers, we had dozens of high-caliber experts like Carrie Madej, Pierre Kory, Sucharit Bhakdi, Wolfgang Wodarg, Peter McCullough, and many, many others. I thought I had heard as much information as I...</description>

      <description>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.</description>

      <description>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.</description>

      <description>Hello everyone and welcome to the latest edition of Bird Flu Digest, formerly known as OffGuardian. The wall-to-wall coverage of Bird Flu is getting wallier-to-wallier with each passing week, to the point it's almost hard to keep up with the waves of hot takes and chilling insights. But if you're going to try, the best place to do it is right here, where I spend a good portion of my time reading very similar articles in very similar papers all about the danger of a pandemic they're about to pretend is happening. Not a dream of mine growing up, but life's like that. Anyway...bird flu. In our last bird flu update, we pointed out that the "bird flu death" in Mexico was very likely no such thing, and that reporting it as such was right out of the Covid playbook. Since then the head of Mexico's Health Ministry has criticized the WHO for calling it a bird flu death at all. But the big bird flu news is that former head of the US CDC Robert Redfield has gone hysterical, telling NewsNation:...</description>

      <description>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."</description>

      <title>Fauci's agency approved monkeypox experiments that could create a virus with a 15% fatality rate, then hid that from Congress</title>

      <description>We've reached a point of Maximal Bureaucratic Psychopathy in Science That's where committees of committees aim to improve your health by giving one human the ability to kill a billion. In 2015 a scientist at Anthony Fauci's agency thought it would be neat to mix two Monkeypox strains together to make a nastier one. For no reason anyone can explain, the National Institutes of Health's Institutional Review Board thought it would be neat too, and approved it. A normal person might worry that doddery Joe Biden has the nuclear codes, but all along, unnamed, unaccountable countless others might have their fingers on equivalent bombs, and they won't need to input any codes to set off the bombs, just have a bad day. The idea was to mix a deadly but slow strain of monkey pox with a tamer monkey pox strain that spread quickly. This could have created a virus with the "best of both" — an agent with a 15% fatality rate and a reproduction rate of 2.4, which would make it very much "pandemic...</description>

      <title>First-ever case of ringworm as an STD reported, doctors warn it's highly contagious</title>
      <link>https://www.sott.net/article/492069-First-ever-case-of-ringworm-as-an-STD-reported-doctors-warn-its-highly-contagious</link>
      <description>Doctors are sounding the alarm over the spread of a highly contagious rare fungal infection that spreads through sex — after treating a man who developed a rash on his penis, thighs and buttocks. The New York patient is the first documented case of the fungus being passed through sexual contact. The infection, which is a rare type of ringworm, has been described by the New York University experts as a 'potential public health threat'. Ringworm — sometimes referred to as 'jock itch' when it affects the groin — is a common mold-like parasite that lives on the body and is spread via contact with an infected person.</description>

      <title>And the Cancer keeps rolling in</title>
      <link>https://www.sott.net/article/491701-And-the-Cancer-keeps-rolling-in</link>
      <description>Kate Middleton has cancer. The King of England has cancer. Every day we hear of more and more people diagnosed with cancer — many of them quite young. And not a single report we hear, unless coming from alt media, will suggest that the Covid vaccines are a possible cause. There is no guarantee that any particular case is definitely attributed to the jabs. But considering the radical upswing of cases recently, you would think more people would be scratching their heads and connecting the dots. The rise in cancer cases pretty clearly correlates with the release of the vaccine. That alone should get most thinking folks questioning. But they aren't, and they won't. It is much easier to blame the usual suspects — pollution, bad water, unhealthy food, toxins in general, messy lifestyles, no exercise, and now, of course, climate change. Not only is the Covid vaccine not a suspect, but no vaccine is. In fact, no FDA-approved medication is. Big Pharma can once again hold the bloody dagger...</description>

      <title>'Flesh-eating' streptococcal disease cases skyrocket in Japan in just 1 year, surge followed covid vaccine rollout</title>

      <description>Cases of streptococcal toxic shock syndrome (STSS), a condition caused by a potentially deadly "flesh-eating" disease, are spreading at a record pace in Japan, public broadcaster NHK reported on Wednesday. Japan's National Institute of Infectious Diseases has recorded about 801 cases of STSS this year, as of May 5. The figure is nearly three times higher than the infections recorded in the same period last year. In the first three months of this year alone Japan reported over 500 cases of STSS, data showed. The syndrome, which has a fatality rate of up to 30%, happens when the infection spreads throughout the body. The bacterium has been dubbed 'flesh-eating' for causing necrosis of limbs and multiple organ failures, experts say. The symptoms caused by STSS include sore throat, fever, diarrhea, vomiting, and lethargy. Clinicians warn that infections can occur via open wounds.</description>

      <title>First recorded case of cow to human bird flu transmission occurred in US, new study reveals</title>
      <link>https://www.sott.net/article/491468-First-recorded-case-of-cow-to-human-bird-flu-transmission-occurred-in-US-new-study-reveals</link>
      <description>It's now official: the highly pathogenic bird flu A(H5N1) that's been spreading across the globe since 2020 has now been passed from a cow to a dairy farmer in the US, the first confirmed cow-to-human transmission of this virus on record. The good news is the case was caught quickly - and the virus manifested as inflammation in the eye, rather than any type of upper respiratory infection. So the chances of it having been passed on to anyone else, if human-to-human transmission is even yet possible, are lower. What's more, after nervously watching it spread through poultry and wild animals, we've now got some solid data on how the bird flu presents in humans, which should help experts in assessing the threat to public health - and in identifying more cases if and when they appear.</description>

      <title>U.N. contributing scientist: 'Culling' human population could avert climate catastrophe</title>
      <link>https://www.sott.net/article/491447-U-N-contributing-scientist-Culling-human-population-could-avert-climate-catastrophe</link>
      <description>The suggested way of doing this would be a new, very fatal pandemic, so reports One America News (OAN) Volcanologist and ultra-hysterical climate scientist Prof. Bill McGuire posted a comment on X: "If I am brutally honest, the only realistic way I see emissions falling as fast as they need to, to avoid catastrophic #climate breakdown, is the culling of the human population by a pandemic with a very high fatality rate." Reaction McGuire's comment came swiftly and harshly, so much you that McGuire took down the callous comment, claiming he didn't mean it and that readers misinterpreted the comment. If anything, it tells us what kind of twisted fantasies are floating around in the heads of the members of the climate doomsday cult.</description>

      <title>BEST OF THE WEB: USDA claims bird flu is spreading in cows with detections in 32 herds in 8 states, is criticized for withholding data</title>

      <description>Researchers around the world are growing more uneasy with the spread of highly pathogenic avian influenza (H5N1) in US dairy cows as the virus continues to make its way into new herds and states. Several experts say the US is not sharing enough information from the federal investigation into the unexpected and growing outbreak, including genetic information from isolated viruses. To date, the US Department of Agriculture has tallied 32 affected herds in eight states: Idaho, Kansas, Michigan, New Mexico, North Carolina, Ohio, South Dakota, and Texas. In some cases, the movement of cattle between herds can explain the spread of the virus. But the USDA has not publicly clarified if all the herds are linked in a single outbreak chain or if there is evidence that the virus has spilled over to cows multiple times. Early infections in Texas were linked to dead wild birds (pigeons, blackbirds, and grackles) found on dairy farms. But the USDA reportedly indicated to Stat News that the...</description>

      <title>Bird flu 'fears surge' as student in Vietnam dies from new strain, also detected in US, UK</title>

      <description>A student has died just days after developing a cough that was being caused by a bird flu. It was a highly pathogenic strain of the virus already detected in the UK and the US. The 21-year-old from Vietnam is confirmed to have been infected with avian flu strain H5N1. While it's most widespread targets are birds, the illness can be transferred to mammals and humans. Comment: There have been hysterical claims that everything from people to seals to otters to foxes have been infected with bird flu, and yet, other than birds, deaths resulting directly from it appear to be rare; and most of the birds that died were culled: (2023) First human death from H3N8 bird flu recorded in China, WHO claims People who had been in close contact with the student are being "monitored daily" in case they fall ill.</description>

      <title>SOTT FOCUS: Lockdown's Fourth Birthday</title>
      <link>https://www.sott.net/article/490074-Lockdowns-Fourth-Birthday</link>
      <description>Today marks four years to the day since the UK went into "lockdown" for the first time. What an exciting time that was, right? With the pan-banging and the curve-flattening and the Spirit of the Blitz living on. Good times. UK Prime Minister Rishi Sunak's team decided to honour the occasion by slapping themselves on the back: Needless to say, this is revisionism of the highest order. To quote my favourite reply, it's the "gaslightiest gaslight I've ever been gaslit by". The furlough system did not "save the economy". The economy was not saved. Rather, it was laid out on a stone table and slowly flayed with a sharpened flint. We are all still living with the consequences of lockdown, not just in the UK but globally. The world over, hundreds of millions of people have been plunged into extreme poverty by so-called "anti-Covid measures". Billions more are worse off, paying more for almost every product and service, and struggling in general. It's important to remember this was the...</description>

      <title>Leprosy cases surge in US, deaths from rabies double in Vietnam</title>
      <link>https://www.sott.net/article/489830-Leprosy-cases-surge-in-US-deaths-from-rabies-double-in-Vietnam</link>
      <description>What is leprosy and why is it resurfacing in the US? Leprosy is caused by two different but similar bacteria - Mycobacterium leprae and Mycobacterium lepromatosis - the latter having just been identified in 2008. Leprosy, also known as Hansen's disease, is avoidable. Transmission among the most vulnerable in society, including migrant and impoverished populations, remains a pressing issue. This age-old neglected tropical disease, which is still present in more than 120 countries, is now a growing challenge in parts of North America. Leprosy is beginning to occur regularly within parts of the southeastern United States. Most recently, Florida has seen a heightened incidence of leprosy, accounting for many of the newly diagnosed cases in the US.</description>
