The discombobulation is quite comical…Continue reading Your Body Is a Semiconductor – Start Acting Like It

Blue Light from LEDs: The Silent Mitochondrial Killer

Updated 5:33 AM EST, Thu December 11, 2025

Continued mass vaccination will only push the evolutionary capacity of SARS-CoV-2 Spike protein beyond the Omicron version

By G. Vanden Bossche, DVM, PhD ‘Omicron is more infectious!’ ‘Omicron causes a milder course of disease!’ ‘Omicron escapes vaccine-mediated immunity!’ ‘Omicron has an astonishing number of mutations within the spike (S) protein!’ ‘Omicron will kill itself since it has too many mutations; these will end up incapacitating viral replication!’ ‘Omicron is ominous.’ ‘Omicron is…Continue reading Continued mass vaccination will only push the evolutionary capacity of SARS-CoV-2 Spike protein beyond the Omicron version

America’s ‘Sanjay Gupta Moment’ and the Denial of Early Covid Treatments

By Jefferey Jaxen The year was 1999. Merck’s new drug Vioxx had just been approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). At the time, Vioxx was part of a relatively new class of painkiller drugs, but there were early warnings it likely caused an increased risk of heart attacks.

The Cult of the Vaccine

“The jab” is just the latest story to be reported as mantra By Matt Taibbi Yesterday, I ran a story that had nothing to do with vaccines, about the seeming delay of the development of a drug called molnupiravir (see the above segment with the gracious hosts of The Hill: Rising for more).
