"REALLY GREAT Truth-Telling in this video! Harry Vox has no fear of discussing the Jewish control of our entire society and what they’re doing to us. The criticism of ANYTHING associated with the “Jewish Money Mafia” is the greatest cultural taboo of our time. This is, of course, a taboo that’s been carefully crafted over the decades, casting them as the ultimate innocent victims in the world in order to protect them from any criticism and crush any opposition to their agenda. As stated by the great Charles Bausman of the Russia-Inside web site, it’s time to drop 'the Jew taboo.' "

Monique, a teacher who's been fired from 2 jobs for declining to take a PCR test and being forced to wear a face-mask, came on the show to talk about her situation and the consequences of standing up for your medical, personal, and professional rights. We discussed the risks of the vaccine, which the CDC has not shared but which are becoming increasingly well known. European data, for example, reveals a wide range of harms occurring that the CDC does not even acknowledge as being in the range of expected effects, even though, as of 13 March 2021, there had been 2,450 deaths and 102,100 injuries from Pfizer injections alone. Monique's case seems to represent a violation of human rights, which deserves to remedied--in a prompt, fair and just manner. I am grateful to her for sharing her experiences with me today.

FEDERAL LAWSUIT VETS COVID CONCEALMENTS INCLUDING CHARLES LIEBER’S CONNECTIONS TO THE PLAGUE, THE PLOT, and PSYCHOTRONIC WARFARE (i.e., WIRELESS MIND-CONTROL)

Mar 31, 2021

CONCEALMENTS BY THE FBI IN THE CRIMINAL CASE AGAINST CHARLES LIEBER EXPOSE INTELLIGENCE AGENCIES’ COMPLICITY IN MEDIA DIVERSIONS HIDING UNPRECEDENTED NEUROSCIENCE, DARK TRADE IN ‘ELECTRO-GENETICS’, CORRUPTED BIOELECTRONICS, AND BRAIN-TO-CLOUD “TRANSHUMANISM”



SECRET HARVARD AGENT CHARLES LIEBER’s WUHAN LAB ACTIVITIES TIE U.S. NATIONAL SECURITY AND CHINESE MILITARY TO COVERT COVID NANO-VACCINOLOGY CONFIRMING THE ‘PLANDEMIC‘.

by
Michele Reilly and Anonymous Contributors

(MedicalVeritas.org–March 30, 2021) New discoveries filed in the U.S. District Court of Middle Florida against COVID-19 vaccine makers, advertisers, and distributors by a Harvard-trained public health expert, Dr. Leonard G. Horowitz, reveal an enterprise secreting critical information about the actual activities of Harvard’s indicted nano-chemistry professor, Charles Lieber, his connections to the alleged “plandemic,” and the “conspiracy theory” embraced by a consensus of best-informed most-honorable scientists.


Among this growing consensus is the former Director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, Robert Redfield, who affirmed COVID’s lab origin on CNN. Redfield joined Nobel Prize virologist Luc Montagnier, who confirmed the same conclusion reached by IBM’S chief genetic analyst, Prashant Pradham et al. Gene sequencing showed the “novel” SARS-coronavirus pathogen most-likely emerged from a lab.


But government officials dismissed the ‘lab origin theory.’ This unreasonable and irresponsible dismissal caused the former Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation Senior Ebola Program Manager (and later Head of the Vaccine Development Office for the German Center for Infection Research), Geert Vanden Bossche, to create a firestorm of controversy. He published that the new COVID vaccines were “likely to become the biggest and most tragic mistake made in the history of public health in general and in the field of vaccination in particular.” Corroboration came from former Vice President of Pfizer, Michael Yeadon, who predicted women would become sterile from the nano-bioelectrically-active shots.


All of the above were dismissed as “tin foil hat” conspiracy theorists by the ‘PharmaMedia.’



But vaccine advocates and opponents alike are “dead wrong,” argues federal case plaintiff Dr. Horowitz, who is the author of the best-selling, longest-enduring, and most censored book in this field, according to Amazon and Wikepedia.


“The ‘natural’ outbreak and ‘accidental leak’ theorists are all dead wrong. They are all afraid to tell the truth. The overwhelming evidence filed for review by Judge John L. Badalamenti, and Magistrate Nicholas P. Mizell in the Florida civil case strongly presumes the Wuhan outbreak was intentional, best explaining why the Pfizer and Moderna mRNA ‘genetic therapies’ are misprepresented as ‘vaccines’; and were never tested for genetic damage or negative side-effects from their nano-bioelectric silver-infused hydrogel delivery system that impacts nerve cells (not exclusively immune cells),” Horowitz explained. “This suppression of military-science is recklessly irresponsible, even unconscionable. Genocide and population control exclusively justifies such outrageous negligence.”


According to Dr. Horowitz’s 20-page opposition filing in Horowitz v. Pfizer et. al., 21 exhibits evidence the most complete story yet told, but under seal in the FBI’s criminal case against Charles Lieber.


Most of this is being censored by the press.



Horowitz’s evidence examines the interplay between the Defense Department (especially DARPA) and private companies, Pfizer, and Moderna. The drug industry and U.S. military invested heavily in Lieber’s largely secreted neuroscience experiments at Harvard with cohorts at MIT. The “bioelectronic” and “frequency therapeutic” science features nano-particle silver-impregnated vaccine “hydrogels.”


These “game-changing” patents enable more than the transfer of genetic material from drugs and vaccines to human immune cells. Brain cells are highly susceptible to the wave-frequency manipulations, according to the researchers’ published science.


Dual Chinese-American military and commercial interests have worked for a decade to master this generally-secreted science that promises an array of population control patents and products merging brain function with electronics–the main focus of Lieber’s expertise and concealed activities in China.


Resulting bioelectric technologies, and opposition to what amounts to a “globalist plot,” is fundamental to Dr. Horowitz’s lawsuit against Pfizer, Moderna, and his former employer, Henry Schein, Inc. Horowitz charges the federal government and complicit corporations with covertly-operating a global enterprise leveraging bioterrorism, corrupted science, media censorship, and competitor disparagement.



Military Neuroscience and Dr. Lieber

All of this is being done to advance the latest U.S./Chinese military-financed neuroscience technology fostering the “transhumanist” movement promising optimal control over civilization through cyberspace, solid research evidences.



FBI-indicted chief biochemistry and neuroscience professor Lieber’s classified activity with military officials in the U.S. and China reveals this Anglo-Asian complicity as the true source of the COVID-19 pandemic that skeptics claim was a “plandemic.”


“I know that the Lieber Research Group has received more than $15,000,000 in grant funding from NIH and DoD since 2008,” wrote FBI Special Agent Robert Plumb for the Justice Department’s criminal case against Lieber. This money was paid for a “component of the United States Department of Health and Human Service”–the “NIH is a government agency responsible for biomedical and public health research,” Plumb’s charging affidavit explained. “LIEBER traveled to [Wuhan] in mid-November 2011 ostensibly in order to participate in a Nano-Energy Materials Forum.”


The purpose of Charles Lieber’s trip, among other things, was to “Conduct national important (key) projects, or international cooperation projects that meet China’s national strategic development requirements or stand at the forefront of international science and technology research field,” Plumb revealed.


In other words, Lieber was employed by the Communist Party to secure China’s military and national security interests, and undermine U.S. National Security interests on behalf of globalist governors working through public and private financiers. They transferred the most advanced nano-scale bioelectronic methods and materials to China. This, allegedly, advanced the field of vaccinology and genetic ‘therapies,’ but also brain-to-cloud transhumanism.


But here is what is most telling: FBI affiant Plumb obfuscated Lieber’s value to China. Federal prosecutors concealed the certainties regarding Lieber’s actual bio-electrical intellectual property and neuro-science transfer activities. Plumb charged Lieber with Chinese espionage activity thusly: “The stated purpose of the agreement, which had a five-year effective term, was to ‘carry out advanced research and development of nanowire-based lithium ion batteries with high performance for electric vehicles.'”


“Electric vehicles?” OUTRAGEOUS! Beyond reasonable doubt the only “electric vehicles” in Lieber’s labs were humans, who ‘volunteered’ to submit to experiments examining, inter alia, “Precision electronic medicine in the brain.”


“In fact,” Science Magazine reported, “one U.S. nanoscientist and former student of Lieber’s says: “I have never seen Charlie working on batteries or nanowire batteries.” (The scientist asked that their name not be used because of the sensitivity surrounding Lieber’s case.)”


Accordingly, the FBI’s “lithium battery” story is a smelly ‘red herring.’
This transparent diversionary obfuscation indicts federal agents and the Department of Justice for complicity in the scheme amounting to ‘pan-genocide.’ They have advanced a deadly fable concealing irrefutable ties between Harvard’s Lieber, MIT’s Media Lab, their advancing nano-neuroscience, COVID-19, and the Pfizer and Moderna vaccines that apply Lieber’s DARPA-financed hydrogel research and developments for “precision electronic medicine in the brain.”


And they paid to cover up all of the above.


‘Globalist capture’ of international governments and military operations has apparently tainted the DoD’s and DoJ’s competence in securing U.S. National Security in favor of globalization and China’s predominant role in geopolitics and economics.


The “Event 201” ‘predictive programming coronavirus preparedness conference, held at Johns Hopkins University six weeks before the Wuhan outbreak, provides more compelling evidence of the institutionalized foul play. Horowitz analyzed the Event 201, including its Chinese commercial representations and concerns. He produced a 52-minute video on the conference. Facts compound compelling evidence of the obvious globalist plot.

The Event 201 coronavirus preparedness conference was co-sponsored by the World Economic Forum and the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, Horowitz’s court filings recall.



The World Health Organization, the “WHO,” is largely financed by the Gates Foundation. This best explains why the WHO whitewashed the entire matter of COVID’s lab origin. Classified military neuroscience technologies would be revealed by an honest investigation report.


Gates and the WHO partnered with Google’s Alphabet parent, Verily Life Sciences, Galvani Corporation, along with multiple intelligence agencies. They hid the truth about the lab coronavirus weaponization and the availability of alternative therapies that would otherwise block their ‘Emergency Use Authorization’ by the ‘captured FDA’ for the Pfizer and Moderna hydrogel-mediated neuro-electric “vaccines.”


Clearly now, the world scientific consensus has awakened to the fact that COVID-19 didn’t emerge from a bat, a pangolin, or even a “leak” from the lab in Wuhan by accident. The compelling evidence of the cover-up presumes foul play and the guilt of the agents and agencies complicit. Most certain is the intentional deployment of the virus to achieve geopolitical and economic objectives–such as the “Final Solution” espoused by Bill Gates as well as the “Great Global Reset” urged by his colleague, World Economic Forum Director Klaus Schwab.


Mass-mediated threats are now equally transparent. The news networks and presses have been abused to advance bio-terror and economic espionage. The clear-and-convincing evidence of biological sabotage involving mass-media hyped vaccines to further globalists’ objectives are frighteningly consistent with Chapter 10, verse 19, of the FBI’s true and correct copy of the Protocols of the Elders of Sion shown below.




Indeed, the new evidence filed by Dr. Horowitz with the federal court in Florida proves the use of bio-electric nano-silver hydrogel infusions into the Pfizer and Moderna mRNA vaccines crucial to the functionality of their “genetic therapy.” The silver-impregnated, water and pH driven docking, secures the transmission of the genetic information to human nerve cells, as well as immune cells.


These facts are established by Lieber and his colleagues’ published science. Their functionality may be presumed to link human brains to the Cloud. This “transhumanist” objective is concealed by Pfizer’s parent and partners, GSK, Verily, Google’s parent Alphabet, and top globalist intelligence agencies, respectively.

Conclusion

Summarily in conclusion, this little-known, government-secreted, military technology is central to Pfizer and Moderna’s mRNA delivery systems, and Dr. Lieber’s pioneering influence.


Described by Harvard Magazine as “a much-honored leader in nanoscale science and bio-compatible electronics,” Lieber’s classified activity with his students and military officials in China, favoring his financiers’ bio-defense and National Security enterprise, is capriciously ignored by the complicit press and Justice Department.


“There’s nobody home in the Justice Department to administer justice to secure our National Security,” Horowitz laments.


That is why Dr. Horowitz’s stands before the federal judges in Horowitz v. Pfizer, et. al., to do whatever he can to cure this pathology.


His legal “standing” derives from having been damaged personally for pioneering and marketing a much safer, and arguably much more effective, competing technologycalled “OxySilver^TM with 528.” For this, Horowitz was, and continues to be, disparaged and commercially damaged. Like his esteemed colleagues in science and medicine he was smeared as a “tin foil hat” “conspiracy theorist” and worse by Lieber’s backers in government and industry.




That is why Horowitz filed his lawsuit as an internationally known award-winning author of the best-selling longest-enduring text in the field of emerging viruses and communicable diseases. He also produced the “Best Film-2016” at the World International Film Festival in London and Geneva, exposing the military secrecy and media malfeasance underlying the globalists’ vaccination agenda.


Horowitz’s lawsuit, likely to be soon dismissed in favor of the world’s wealthiest companies, bravely stands like “David versus Goliath” in a destiny upon which civilization’s security now rests.
Opposing the potentially disastrous implications to civilization brought by pharmaceutical nano-bioelectronics intertwined with covert lab virus enhancements for allegedly “disease control,” that Dr. Horowitz argues is actually “population control,” deserves your prayerful support.

Unused Vaccines Are Piling Up Across U.S. as Some Regions Resist
Anna Edney and Drew Armstrong 7 hrs ago

(Bloomberg) -- Many U.S. states and cities have a growing surplus of Covid-19 vaccines, a sign that in some places demand is slowing before a large percentage of the population has been inoculated, according to an analysis by Bloomberg News.

The data indicate as many as one in three doses are unused in some states. Appointments for shots often go untaken, with few people signing up.

Bloomberg analyzed state and U.S. data from Monday, providing a snapshot of vaccine use before Johnson & Johnson shelved millions of shots pending federal health officials’ investigation into rare cases of blood clots. That pause will likely cause the number of unused shots to fluctuate, but will little change the comparisons of states.

Overall, demand remains strong. In the U.S., 37% of people have gotten at least one dose, and the country is one of the world leaders in vaccinations. But even some states that are doing well are struggling with stubborn pockets where uptake is low.

In Virginia, for instance, 83% of vaccines supplied to the state have been used — but the number of people getting shots differs sharply from city to city. That difference is especially stark in Charlottesville and Lynchburg, separated by a mere hour’s drive on U.S. 29 past vineyards and open farmland.

“Virginia is sort of a microcosm of the country,” said Costi Sifri, director of epidemiology at UVA Health in Charlottesville. “We’re going to have this same type of challenge played out in every state in the country. How do we close the vaccine gaps that are going to occur geographically?”

In Charlottesville, a mostly Democratic area that is home to the University of Virginia, vaccine appointments are tough to snag even with two mass clinics right in town. In Lynchburg, 70 miles south and dominated by conservative Liberty University, open appointments at an old TJ Maxx are easy to find. The disparity has led to in-state vaccine tourism where residents in northern Virginia flock south to snap up shots that would otherwise go unused. The wide availability of vaccines also signals that areas like Lynchburg may be running out of residents willing to get vaccinated.

The Bloomberg Vaccine Tracker shows the percentage of delivered doses that have been used in a state, based on Centers for Disease Control and Prevention data. In late February, with demand for vaccines high, only 19% of doses in the U.S. were unused, a sign that almost every dose delivered was being quickly injected into somebody’s arm. Bloomberg calculated rates of unused doses for this analysis using one-week averages, which are less volatile than day-over-day numbers.

Now there are warning signs that vaccines are going unused. That’s a concern for epidemiologists who maintain that at least 75% of the nation’s population must be protected before the virus can be truly contained.

Federal officials are in the early stages of rethinking distribution. Vaccines have so far been doled out based on population.

“We're going to go through stages, as we vaccinate higher and higher portions of populations, where it will make sense for us to continue to watch where vaccines are needed, how vaccines are distributed, the best way to reach more people,” Andy Slavitt, senior adviser for the White House’s Covid Response team, said at the end of March.

Meanwhile, doses pile up. West Virginia — lauded for its rollout of shots early on — has gone from using all but a tiny percentage of its supply in mid-February to 26% of doses unused, a daily average of 352,000 unused doses over the last week. Some states have never gotten their vaccination strategy in gear. Alabama, Georgia and Mississippi represent a band of southern states that have struggled to work through their supplies.

States don't control all of the distribution inside their own borders. Mississippi says it has used 77% of the doses it has requested. But when the doses sent directly by the federal government to pharmacies and other locations are counted, only 65% of doses in the state have been used, according to Bloomberg's analysis.

Taken together, the worst-performing quartile of states holds 14.1 million unused doses, meaning that 31% of doses delivered in those states are yet to be marked as used. In the best-performing quartile of states, only 11% of doses were unused.

Early in the vaccine drive, West Virginia focused on its older population and has now shifted to those in their teens to mid-30s, where most new Covid-19 cases are turning up, said Clay Marsh, the state's Covid-19 czar.

“We’re seeing more incidents of more people needing more convincing or needing more time to make their decision,” he said. ​​​​​​ “We’re right on that interface of having more vaccine than arms to put them in.”

Statewide data can obscure what’s going on at a local level.

About 45% of Charlottesville’s 47,200 residents have received at least one dose, according to Virginia Department of Health data. Demand has remained high enough that the Blue Ridge Health District, which includes Charlottesville, restricted access. Not until Monday did the district open eligibility to people 16 and older, in line with Governor Ralph Northam’s goal of allowing everyone in the state to get a shot by the beginning of next week.

In Lynchburg, eligibility officially opened to everyone 16 and older April 5. Even before that, restrictions weren’t much enforced. Still, only about 29% of the city’s 82,000 residents have received at least one dose, according to health department data. If it were a state, Lynchburg’s vaccine rate would rank near the bottom, just above Alabama and Mississippi.

“At first we didn’t have enough vaccine, and now that we have a pretty good supply, the demand isn’t there,” said Kerry Gateley, health director for the Central Virginia Health District that Lynchburg falls under.

Unvaccinated pockets around the country give the virus room to spread and, perhaps worse, the ability to evolve. Experts worry that’s a perfect recipe for virus variants.

“They have the opportunity to undo the gains that we’ve worked so hard to achieve,” Sifri said.

map: Where the Unused Doses Are© Bloomberg Where the Unused Doses Are
Early in the vaccine drive, Black Americans were the focus of concerns about vaccine hesitancy and access. Newer polling shows White evangelicals now exhibit the strongest resistance.

For Gateley, this will be especially critical given Lynchburg’s large evangelical community. Liberty University, the city’s largest employer, was founded by Southern Baptist pastor and televangelist Jerry Falwell Sr. Liberty clashed with health officials early in the pandemic when it quickly brought students back to in-person classes. But the university also owns and is leasing to the city a shuttered TJ Maxx store for a mass vaccination clinic, Gateley said. Liberty declined multiple requests for comment.

In Charlottesville, UVA Health has loaned the Blue Ridge Health District an array of resources, including running one of the city’s mass clinics and helping lead 28 outreach events in February and March. That, and the region advocating for more doses, should help boost vaccinations, according to Ryan McKay, Covid-19 incident commander for the Blue Ridge Health District.

“We anticipate we’re going to see a pretty big increase in the number of doses we administer," McKay said.

COVID-19 booster shots may be needed within 12 months, US officials say
Nicoletta Lanese 3 hrs ago

People vaccinated against COVID-19 may require booster shots within nine to 12 months of their initial vaccination, Reuters reported.

Evidence suggests that the coronavirus vaccines developed by Pfizer and Moderna offer at least six months of robust protection from COVID-19 infection. But even if this protection lasts for longer, several highly-transmissible viral variants are now circulating; that means people may need a regular booster shots to bolster immunity to the virus, Dr. David Kessler, chief science officer for President Joe Biden's COVID-19 response task force, said at a congressional committee meeting on Thursday (April 15).

"The current thinking is those who are more vulnerable will have to go first," in terms of getting their booster shots, Kessler said.

From early on in the pandemic, experts predicted that officials may need to roll out multiple generations of COVID-19 vaccines and that regular booster shots may be necessary, since experts couldn't know then how long vaccine-generated immunity would last, Live Science previously reported. And there's always the potential for new virus variants to emerge and thwart the current vaccines, raising the risk of so-called breakthrough infections, meaning infections among fully vaccinated people.

Breakthrough infections are completely expected, as none of the COVID-19 vaccines are 100% protective against the coronavirus. The CDC has been monitoring for such infections since the vaccine rollout began, Dr. Rochelle Walensky, director of the U.S. Centers of Disease Control and Prevention, told the House subcommittee hearing, according to Reuters.

Based on the number of vaccinated people who caught COVID-19 in clinical trials, and factoring in the attack rate of the virus, scientists would predict that about one in every 2,000 people who receive Pfizer or Moderna shots will still catch the virus, The Gothamist reported. (The attack rate is the likelihood of catching the virus after being exposed.) Since the Johnson & Johnson vaccine showed a lower level of protection in trials, the predicted infection rate would be closer to one in 300.

When breakthrough infections do occur, however, the vaccines should frequently blunt the virus's blow and reduce the chance of a person developing severe symptoms, White House chief medical advisor Dr. Anthony Fauci said Monday (April 12) at a COVID-19 Task Force briefing, according to The Gothamist.

So far, about 5,800 breakthrough infections have occurred among 77 million fully vaccinated people in the U.S., Walensky said, as reported by Reuters. Of those infected individuals, 396 required hospitalization and 74 died.

Some vaccinated people may not mount a strong enough immune response following their shots, which can leave them vulnerable to breakthrough infections. It's also possible that the vaccines protect against certain variants of the virus better than others — hence the need for booster shots. Similar to the annual flu shot, the COVID-19 vaccines can be updated to better protect against new variants, and trials of such vaccines are already underway, Scientific American reported.
