(May 25, 2021) Vaccination segregation: Chicago restaurant separates customers by jab status, citing city’s Covid-19 rules
A social experiment is underway in Chicago, where a restaurant is segregating customers by Covid-19 vaccination status.
City guidelines say this is perfectly fine, says the owner, who chairs the Illinois Restaurant Association.

Moe’s Cantina pioneered the practice this past weekend, according to Chicago’s WBBM-TV.
The restaurant was divided into an unrestricted, vaccinated section and another, where partitions and socially distanced tables remain.

“We decided to divide, and you’re free to come on this side, go to the bar. You can be pre-pandemic,” said the owner, Sam Sanchez.
Patrons will need to show proof of full vaccination to be issued with a pink bracelet and allowed into the unrestricted area.

(June 25, 2020) The NIH Vaccine
NIH and Moderna agreed to transfer materials to a coronavirus scientist at the University of North Carolina
for animal testing in an agreement executed December 16, 2019.
Notably, the materials were described as “mRNA coronavirus vaccine
candidates developed and jointly-owned by [NIH] and Moderna.”
This likely refers to work done on an earlier coronavirus, MERS-CoV.
It nonetheless provides further evidence that the federal government was developing coronavirus candidates with Moderna that it jointly owned.

(May 28, 2021) California giving $116 million to people who get virus shots
LOS ANGELES (AP) — California is giving away the country’s largest pot of vaccine prize money — $116.5 million
— in an attempt to get millions more inoculated before the most populous state fully reopens next month.

Gov. Gavin Newsom on Thursday announced the prizes, which include $1.5 million each
for 10 Californians, the largest single award offered in any state.

The goal is to motivate roughly 12 million people who are eligible but not yet vaccinated,
though the more than 20 million Californians already partially or fully vaccinated also are in the running for the most valuable prizes.
The state will give $50 gift cards either for general use or for specific grocery stores to the next 2 million people who get shots,
including those at the school where Newsom spoke.

(May 30, 2021) 117 employees sue Houston hospital network over vaccination mandate, say they don’t want to be ‘guinea pigs’
Marc Boom, the CEO of Houston Methodist, a firm that runs eight hospitals with more than 26,000 employees, gave personnel a June 7 deadline to get vaccinated.
The consequences of not getting the shot include “suspension and eventually termination,” he wrote in an April letter to doctors and nurses, which was cited in the lawsuit filed on Friday.
A total of 117 plaintiffs are insisting that the hospital is “illegally requiring its employees to be injected with an experimental vaccine.”

The hospital is forcing the staff to be “human ‘guinea pigs’ as a condition for continued employment,” the lawsuit says.
“It is a severe and blatant violation of the Nuremberg Code and the public policy of the state of Texas,”
attorney Jared Woodfill, who filed the lawsuit in Montgomery County, told ABC News.

Written shortly after WWII, the Nuremberg Code lays out the basic ethical principles of medical experimentation on humans.
The US Food and Drug Administration approved the emergency use of the vaccines made by Pfizer/BioNTech, Moderna and Johnson & Johnson
after the required trials were completed. They are yet to be granted full approval, which requires a more rigorous review.

(June 4, 2021) BREAKING: Project Veritas Obtains New Insider Tape Revealing Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg and Top Executive Heidi Swartz Prioritize Punishing Truth Seekers
Over Acknowledging Secret Censorship of ‘Actually True Events or Facts’

Project Veritas released a new video today obtained from a Facebook insider
showing the company’s CEO Mark Zuckerberg and a top executive by the name of Heidi Swartz
discussing former Facebook employee Morgan Kahmann and the actions being taken to root out whistleblowers that come to Veritas.

Swartz, who is Facebook’s Deputy General Counsel focusing on Employment Law and Investigations,
downplayed the leaked documents Project Veritas released last week claiming it was already public information.

Project Veritas showed that Facebook had secret plans to “tier” its users and was willing to censor comments
that were “actually true events or facts” when it came to vaccines.
Facebook’s own internal documents showed their goal was to stop the vaccine debate,
and not to stop solely “vaccine misinformation.” These crucial parts of the leaked documents
were not listed publicly by Facebook, as Swartz affirmed in this video.

She continued, “When we find leakers, which we often do, we have zero tolerance.
So that means we fire them…We're also continuing to investigate additional potential leakers,
and we plan to take action there too. We're also working on continuing to ramp up our investigative techniques as our company grows.”

Agreement was reached on so-called vaccine passports following a meeting in Oxford of health ministers from G7 countries.
Following the two-day summit, the politicians concluded that international standards and recommended practices must be set
“for the creation, use and mutual recognition of testing and vaccination certificates…

Health ministers from Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, the UK and the USA
also agreed on a new charter which it is hoped will bring about standardised evidence and data from international trials,
in a bid to speed up access to approved treatments and vaccines, as well as agreed minimum standards of health data to be shared internationally.

The ministers are also considering how best to incentivise the development and supply of new and existing antimicrobial treatments, including new antibiotics, in their countries.

(April 13, 2021) Big tech pouring billions into harvesting blood of the young so elites can live and rule forever

It’s something straight out of a science fiction movie, and a bad one at that, but it’s absolutely true:
Big Tech oligarchs in the U.S. and abroad are pouring billions into research that will enable them to live and govern eternally
by literally discovering the once-fictional “fountain of youth,” even if they have to harvest the blood of the young to achieve it.

Previously, “people working on diseases did not think that aging was modifiable,” Felipe Sierra,
a now-retired director of the Division of Aging Biology at the National Institute on Aging, told Newsweek.
“That is actually what many medical books say: The main risk factor for cardiovascular disease is aging,
but we cannot change aging so let’s talk about cholesterol and obesity. For Alzheimer’s, aging is the main risk factor—
but let’s talk about the buildup in the brain of beta-amyloid proteins. Now that is beginning to change.”

Before the COVID-19 pandemic, investors were putting up billions to fund these biotech firms. And now, the payoff is close.
“You have no idea how many people are interested to investing money in longevity,” Nir Barzilai,
founding director of the Institute for Aging Research at Albert Einstein College of Medicine of Yeshiva University,
as well as the founder of one of the biotech firms, told Newsweek. “There are billions of dollars.”

(November 28, 2012) Can a Jellyfish Unlock the Secret of Immortality?
After more than 4,000 years — almost since the dawn of recorded time, when Utnapishtim told Gilgamesh
that the secret to immortality lay in a coral found on the ocean floor — man finally discovered eternal life in 1988.
He found it, in fact, on the ocean floor. The discovery was made unwittingly by Christian Sommer,
a German marine-biology student in his early 20s. He was spending the summer in Rapallo,
a small city on the Italian Riviera, where exactly one century earlier Friedrich Nietzsche
conceived “Thus Spoke Zarathustra”: “Everything goes, everything comes back;
eternally rolls the wheel of being. Everything dies, everything blossoms again. . . .”

(May 4, 2015) The Immortal Jellyfish
Fully grown, Turritopsis dohrnii is only about 4.5 mm (0.18 inches) across, smaller than a pinky nail.
A bright-red stomach is visible in the middle of its transparent bell, and the edges are lined with up to 90 white tentacles.
These tiny, transparent creatures have an extraordinary survival skill, though.
In response to physical damage or even starvation, they take a leap back in their development process,
transforming back into a polyp. In a process that looks remarkably like immortality,
the born-again polyp colony eventually buds and releases medusae that are genetically identical to the injured adult.
In fact, since this phenomenon was first observed in the 1990s, the species has come to be called “the immortal jellyfish.”

(March 16, 2021) This Jellyfish Can Defy Death And Turn Back Time
A species called Turritopsis dohrnii is able to reverse its own aging process.
Texas A&M-Galveston researchers are trying to see if this could apply to humans.

Maria Pia Miglietta, associate professor in marine biology, has been researching
the unique properties of Turritopsis dohrnii, often referred to as T. dohrnii,
a jellyfish species found around the world, especially off the coastline of her native Italy.

The jellyfish cells are able to undergo a process called transdifferentiation
that allows T. dohrnii to revert back to a younger life cycle – much like a 40-year-old human who could go back to being a five-year-old.

“When T. dohrnii is faced with unfavorable conditions such as starvation, physical damage, change in temperature etc., instead of dying,
it forms a cyst-like ball and settles on the bottom,” she said.

She said that in a few days, that cyst changes into a polyp
and eventually these colonies form buds and a new jellyfish.
In effect, it has prevented its own death.

An in-depth study of the jelly has been made by researchers at Xiamen University, in China.
Led by Jinru He the researchers have pinpointed a number of interesting characteristics relating to the moon jellyfish(Aurelia aurita).
The finding of regeneration was discovered when Dr. He monitored a moon jellyfish for 18 months.
At the end of this time, the jellyfish “died.” At this point, Dr. He placed the jellyfish back into a different tank
of freshly collected marine water. He then waited.
Three months later, a sea anemone-like polyp rose up from the seemingly dead jellyfish, and in time, a new jellyfish formed.
This was the first time, according to National Geographic, this had been observed.
At this point, researchers are unclear if this is reverse aging or some form of regeneration.

(November 30, 2020) Researchers identify gene responsible for cellular aging
The research team, made up of scientists at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, relied on cellular reprogramming
- a commonly used approach to reverse cell aging - to establish a genetically identical young and old cell model for this study.

The team next conducted an analysis of the cells to determine if there were any changes in global gene expression
resulting from the reprogramming. They found that the expression of GATA6, a protein
that plays an important role in gut, lung and heart development,
was repressed in the reprogrammed cells compared to the control cells.

This repression led to an increase in the activity of a protein essential to embryonic development called sonic hedgehog (SHH)
as well as the expression level of yet another protein, FOXP1, necessary for proper development of the brain, heart and lung.
"Thus, we identified the GATA6/SHH/FOXP1 pathway as a key mechanism that regulates MSC aging and rejuvenation," Dr. Li said.

To determine which of the Yamanaka transcription factors (four reprogramming genes used to derive iPSCs)
were involved in repressing GATA6 in the iPSCs, the team analyzed GATA6 expression in response to the knockdown of each factor.
This yielded the information that only OCT4 and KLF4 are able to regulate GATA6 activity, a finding consistent with that of several previous studies.

(October 4, 2013) Moderna inks agreement with Merck to develop mRNA-based antiviral vaccines and passive immunity therapies
Moderna Therapeutics announced a license and collaboration agreement with Merck, known as MSD
outside the United States and Canada, through a subsidiary, for the discovery and development of vaccines
and passive immunity treatments against viral diseases using modified messenger RNA (mRNA).

Moderna is a pioneer in the development of mRNA Therapeutics across a range of therapeutic applications.
Moderna’s work in the collaboration will be led by Valera,
its venture focused on the development of mRNA vaccines and therapeutics to fight infectious disease.

The three-year research collaboration (with the possibility of a one-year extension)
is focused on the development of new mRNA-based treatments and vaccines against four undisclosed viruses.
Under the terms of the agreement, Merck will make an upfront cash payment to Moderna of $50 million
to give Merck the ability to utilize the granted licenses to commercialize five product candidates,
and will make a $50 million equity investment in Moderna. This is in addition to the $450 million
financing from other investors previously announced on January 5, 2015.

Merck will lead the discovery and development of candidates and commercialization of any products resulting from this license
and collaboration agreement, while Moderna will design and synthesize the messenger RNA product candidates directed against selected targets.
In addition to the license and collaboration announced today with Merck, Moderna has ongoing strategic agreements
with Alexion Pharmaceuticals in the area of rare diseases, AstraZeneca in cardiovascular disease and some areas of oncology, and DARPA
(the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency) in biodefense.

Valera LLC, the second venture company formed by Moderna, is focused exclusively on the advancement of vaccines
and therapeutics for the prevention and treatment of infectious diseases.

(September 4, 2020) 'Bad Optics' Or Something More? Moderna Executives' Stock Sales Raise Concerns
Since January, CEO Stéphane Bancel has sold roughly $40 million worth of Moderna stock held by himself or associated investment funds;
Chief Medical Officer Tal Zaks has sold around $60 million; and President Stephen Hoge has sold more than $10 million.
No clear evidence has emerged indicating that executives sold stock based on confidential internal information, which would be illegal.

Moderna says its executives pre-scheduled their stock sales long in advance.
Those schedules - known as 10b5-1 plans - can act as a defense to charges of insider trading.
But the plans have to be put in place when executives do not have confidential inside information.

NPR has found multiple executives adopted or modified their plans just before key announcements about the company's vaccine.
That has raised questions about whether they were aware of nonpublic information when they planned their stock trades.

NPR asked Jordan why Moderna executives modified their 10b5-1 plans just before major announcements.
Initially, Jordan said by email, "I believe you must have your dates wrong."
NPR then provided documentation of those dates from the company's official disclosures to the government, which Jordan did not dispute.
Jordan then said that even though multiple Moderna executives changed their 10b5-1 plans
within one business day of announcements, the company had determined that those executives did
not have "material nonpublic information" - a key term for insider trading - when they made those changes.

(June 12, 2021) In first federal ruling on vaccine mandates, judge sides with Houston hospital, dismissing claims from staff resisters
In the first federal ruling on vaccine mandates, a Houston judge Saturday dismissed a lawsuit
by hospital employees who declined the COVID-19 shot – a decision that could have a ripple effect across the nation.

The case involved Houston Methodist, which was the first hospital system in the country to require that all its employees get vaccinated.
U.S. District Judge Lynn N. Hughes said federal law does not prevent employers from issuing that mandate.

The lawsuit claimed that federal law prohibits employees from being required to get vaccinated
without full U.S. Food and Drug Administration approval of the vaccines.
The judge dismissed this argument as well, saying that law does not apply to private employers.

He also dismissed an argument that anyone who gets the vaccine is effectively a human subject in an experimental trial.
"The hospital's employees are not participants in a human trial," he wrote.
"They are licensed doctors, nurses, medical technician, and staff members.
The hospital has not applied to test the COVID-19 vaccines on its employees."

The lawsuit originally was filed in Texas state court but was moved to federal court at Houston Methodist's request.
The federal judge ruled Saturday that Texas state law only protects workers from being fired if they are forced to commit a crime.

Money and high-profile names, they’re a double threat. Flagship Pioneering, the venture firm behind Moderna,
snagged both during a busy Monday. After raising $2.2 billion in an extension to its seventh fund
Monday morning, Flagship followed up in the afternoon by confirming that ex-FDA Commissioner Stephen Hahn, M.D.,
will join the biotech incubator in a chief medical officer role.

Hahn led the FDA through the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic and made statements that irked scientists,
including his comments on convalescent plasma while standing by former President Donald Trump’s side.
He is now joining Flagship, the venture fund that birthed Moderna, the very company that earned Hahn's nod six months ago.

Under Hahn's watch, the FDA granted emergency use authorization to the company's COVID-19 vaccine
just behind a similar OK for Pfizer and BioNTech's jab. Hahn will help lead Flagship’s nascent Preemptive Medicine
and Health Security business. Flagship founder and CEO Noubar Afeyan, Ph.D., is also chairman of Moderna.
With today’s funding, Flagship has a stockpile of cash to support the program, which Hahn begins leading on Wednesday.

Three California State University, Chico, students who have recovered from COVID-19 are suing the school,
saying the California State University system’s requirement that they receive a COVID-19 vaccine
before returning to class in the fall places them at risk of dying.

The lawsuit, filed in federal court in Sacramento on behalf of Austin Higley of Grass Valley and Kyle Clark and Ryan Clark,
both of Rocklin, says all three students contracted COVID-19 in January 2020 and subsequently recovered from the virus.

On April 22, the students received emails from the university informing them that once federal authorities officially license vaccines
now being administered on an emergency-use basis “students, faculty and staff must be vaccinated
or they will be precluded from the campus for the fall semester,” the lawsuit states.

(June 17, 2021) (Co)Inventor of mRNA Technology: Vaccine Causes Lipid Nanoparticles to Accumulate in ‘High Concentrations’ in Ovaries
On June 10, Dr. Robert Malone, creator of mRNA vaccine technology, joined evolutionary biologist Bret Weinstein, Ph.D.,
for a 3-hour conversation on the “Dark Horse Podcast” to discuss multiple safety concerns related to the Pfizer and Moderna vaccines.

In this short outtake [which was censored on YouTube soon after this piece was published] from the full podcast, Malone, Weinstein and tech entrepreneur Steve Kirsch
touch on the implications of the controversial Japanese Pfizer biodistribution study. The study was made public earlier this month by Dr. Byram Bridle, a viral immunologist.

As The Defender reported June 3, Bridle received a copy of a Japanese biodistribution study — which had been kept from the public —
as a result of a freedom of information request made to the Japanese government for Pfizer data.

Prior to the study’s disclosure, the public was led to believe by regulators and vaccine developers that the spike protein
produced by mRNA COVID vaccines stayed in the shoulder where it was injected and was not biologically active —
even though regulators around the world had a copy of the study which showed otherwise.

The biodistribution study obtained by Bridle showed lipid nanoparticles from the vaccine did not stay in the deltoid muscle
where they were injected as the vaccine’s developers claimed would happen, but circulated throughout the body
and accumulated in large concentrations in organs and tissues, including the spleen, bone marrow, liver, adrenal glands
and — in “quite high concentrations” — in the ovaries.

(June 22, 2021) Indiana students sue over COVID-19 vaccine requirement
Students at Indiana University filed a federal lawsuit Monday, suing the school over its COVID-19 vaccination requirement.
The lawsuit alleges that the university violates students' rights as well as Indiana's vaccine passport law.
The recently passed law prohibits state and local governments from creating or requiring vaccine passports.

In the lawsuit, the students claim that they are being coerced into vaccination and that if they do not comply,
they face "the threat of virtual expulsion from school."

Earlier this month, school administrators announced that students would have to verify their vaccination status
with the school unless they applied for a medical or religious exemption.

(January 7, 2020) Chancellor Sajid Javid WILL go to elite Davos summit after being granted ‘special dispensation’
Sajid Javid will head to the Alps later this month to meet world leaders and the globe's most powerful business figures in Davos
despite Boris Johnson banning ministers from attending, it emerged today. The Chancellor has been given 'special dispensation'
from a No 10 block on UK Government attendance at the World Economic Forum, which is held annually in the upmarket Swiss resort.

Last month Downing Street said ministers should focus on 'delivering' rather than sipping 'champagne with billionaires'
in the swanky alpine hideaway for the elite. But a No 10 spokesman told the Financial Times: 'It was decided
that this was the appropriate level of representation.'

regarding the "Trusted News Initiative" and censorship of information regarding COVID vaccine safety,
please be aware of the link between Pfizer and Reuters. I would call that a journalistic conflict of interest. What do you think?

This new article is pretty fascinating because it was very obviously spoonfed to Rowan Jacobsen by Ralph Baric.
It thus represents Baric's most vigorous attempt so far to lodge a defense of his GOF work and delink himself from WIV & EcoHealth.
