Physicians Pressured to Consider Race in Deciding Who to Treat

Physicians Pressured to Consider Race in Deciding Who to Treat
"Encouraged by the Biden administration, several states and municipalities are adopting policies that give preference to non-white patients in receiving potentially lifesaving treatments for COVID-19, including scarce monoclonal antibody infusions.
Health officials in Utah, New York City, and, initially, Minnesota developed race-based ranking systems after a key federal agency issued guidance documents citing race and ethnicity as factors in allocating therapies.
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) “fact sheet” for emergency use authorization (EUA) of GlaxoSmithKline’s Sotrovimab, currently the only monoclonal antibody treatment effective against the Omicron variant, states “race or ethnicity” can “place individual patients at high risk for progression to severe COVID-19.”...Read all.

Unvaccinated Canadian father loses custody of children - TheBlaze

The judge allowed the father to have "generous" visiting rights via Zoom video conferencing, but no in-person contact. If the dad gets vaccinated against COVID-19 he can return to court to attempt to repeal the decision. The parents separated in 2019 and agreed to share custody of their three children.

Kinda similar.

Robin Smith: The Deadly Pandemic Ignored by Democrats | The Patriot Post
  • Joe Biden opened the southern border, and what came across was death.
"What if a significant tool in the hands of law enforcement and prosecutors was allowed to expire when a legislative fix was possible?
Last week, the Halt All Lethal Trafficking of Fentanyl Act was blocked from a vote by House Democrats. 
...Fentanyl analogues and fentanyl-related substances are the precursors to the fake fentanyl mixed up by enterprising drug dealers in their makeshift home chemistry labs, and the HALT Fentanyl Act would permanently label them as substances with no currently accepted medical use and a high potential for abuse. 
...Current laws allow producers to change their recipes and skirt the law, whipping up a deadly drug that is estimated to be 100 times more potent than morphine and 50 times more potent than heroin. 
...The soft-on-crime Democrats can’t be bothered with the open border, the known movement of these powerful substances from China, or any attempt to assist with efforts to stop the flow of substances that are destroying lives, livelihoods, and entire communities.

The CDC's lies continue!-----That Study of Face Masks Does Not Show What the CDC Claims

That Study of Face Masks Does Not Show What the CDC Claims
  • The agency further undermines its credibility by desperately trying to back up conclusions it has already reached.

(CDC/MMWR)
"...If you read the tiny footnotes, you will see that the result for cloth masks was not statistically significant. 
So even on its face, this study, which was published in the CDC's Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report on Friday, did not validate the protective effect of the most commonly used face coverings—a striking fact that the authors do not mention until the end of the sixth paragraph
And once you delve into the details of the study, it becomes clear that the results for surgical masks and N95s, while statistically significant, do not actually demonstrate a cause-and-effect relationship, contrary to the way the CDC is framing them...Read all!

Virginia mother slams Prince William County School Board over masks - TheBlaze:

She quoted Centers of Disease Control and Prevention data that revealed 49,000 Americans under the age of 18 have died of all causes during the pandemic, and only 331 of those deaths have been "COVID-related." Jensen asserted that the COVID-related deaths in children were fewer than those who died from heart disease, cancer, suicide, homicide, and drowning.
“Yet we have turned kids’ lives upside down at school for what is essentially a non-risk,” she said. “We play politics with kids faces by placing restrictive fabrics over their noses and mouths.”

Blue state attorneys general help the Mexican government sue gun manufacturers - TheBlaze

Blue state attorneys general help the Mexican government sue gun manufacturers - TheBlaze

The defendants filed a motion to dismiss the lawsuit in November. They argued that the Mexican government should not attribute violence within its borders to American arms manufacturers but should instead blame a series of third parties who traffic guns into the country.

The brief filed by the blue state attorneys generals endorsing the Mexican government’s lawsuit argues that the PLCAA is not a valid defense against the lawsuit.

Simple explanation? They jiggered the data. They lied!-----Here Is What's Behind Today's Stunning Payrolls Beat | ZeroHedge

Here Is What's Behind Today's Stunning Payrolls Beat | ZeroHedge
"the labor data indicates an economy firing on all cylinders and growing strong.
But is that true?
Well, here's what happened. 
First, looking at just the December to January change we find that while the seasonally adjusted number rose by an impressive 467K, the unadjusted number collapsed, tumbling from 150.349 million to 147.525 million, a 2.8 million drop (as it tends to do every time the year shifts from December to January) meaning that the entire delta in the January number - somewhere in the 3+ million range - is due to arbitrary adjustments overlaid on top of the data.

The plot thickens, and indeed one thing that analysts apparently forgot when they were submitting their forecasts for January's payrolls is that this is the month when the BLS adjusts data for the past 10 years...
In summary, what these revisions did was to revise 2017 job growth lower by by -61,000, 2018 lower by -26,000, 2019 revised lower by -43,000, while 2020 was revised higher by 124,000, and 2021 was also revised up 217,000, or in total a 211,000 upward revision over 5 years or 3,500 jobs per month...Read all!

Biden calls Glock handgun with 40-round mag a 'weapon of war' in gun control remarks - TheBlaze

Later in the meeting, Biden suggested limitations to the Second Amendment as a way to curb gun crime, alleging that "no amendment is absolute." He also repeated a dubious claim that when the amendment was passed, private citizens weren't allowed to purchase cannons. That statement has been fact-checked and declared "false."
