1)Zero-tolerance policy: Shanghai Residents Rebel As Cases Surge, Lockdown Extended 'Indefinitely' 2)Emory restricts WiFi for students noncompliant with booster requirements, sees slight increase in COVID-19 cases 3)mRNA Vaccines Put You at Risk for Acute Coronary Syndrome
Doc, this is Great. I love the recap because it's so easy to miss info week by week. It also helps keep an archive of data in case one tries to persuade another with some great facts. It's all there in one place and organized. Great work.👍👍
Yesterday's NY Slimes COVID roundup says there have 11 new COVID cases in the US congress. That's 11 out of 535, at least. That's after the omicron wave has died out and we are at a low plateau. Nancy Pelosi is the most high profile one. The article said she had her second booster "last month", which means she is in the high danger zone of two weeks after a shot. Winning!
I don't remember if you highlighted this, but 11 of the 21 public commenters at the FDA's VRBPAC meeting Wednesday were permanently COVID "vaccine" disabled.
They went through their symptoms and the complete lack of support the US has provided them. Nobody who has been injured in the US by COVID shots has been compensated yet. There are no programs to try to find out what is going on with these injuries, no treatments being developed. These people are all being gaslighted (that is, being told their symptoms are psychosomatic or coincidental) and ignored.
This is a VERY important study, and I am glad they have fixed the typos. For those of you that don't know yet, it strongly hints that a two shot series of the clot shot doubles the risk of heart attack for EVERYONE, although this study is limited to patients who already had some kind of cardiac issue.
Regarding the further drop in US life expectancy (story #10). This story is much worse than it would sound to a non-actuary.
(Warning, boring paragraph) Life expectancy is determined as a snapshot in time. It looks at a hypothetical person that is born and experiences the risk of death that applies to each age group of the population of the country for that year. So - it considers the fraction of 0 year-olds that died in 2021, the fraction of 1 year olds, and so on, all the way up to at least 99 year olds. I don't actually know at what age they stop calculating the fraction - maybe at 110. And they do some calculations based on a hypothetical child subject to those mortality risks. You can think of it as a group of 10 million boys and 10 million girls subject to the risks that apply for each age as the people in 2021 experienced them. It's all hypothetical, because the mortality risks change each year.
Anyway - think about it. A LOT more of the sicker 89 and 90 year olds died in 2020 than was usual. So the 90 year olds that were alive in 2021 were not only healthier than the usual batch you would have, A LOT OF THEM HAD ALREADY SURVIVED COVID!
Well, they SHOULD have been healthier than normal, but they were vaxxed.
I will try to look into this more closely.
And if you look at the excellent graphs of www.usmortality.com you can see that younger working folks (ages 25-44) have been the most badly affected - the whole age cohort has seen about 40% extra mortality for about two years now, and most of it is not COVID.

So Elon called to confirm the Babylon Bee’s suspended account on twitter. Elon not the free speech guy everyone said he was. Shocking.
For #3, Epoch times is paywalled. Is this referring the PULS cardiac test story from here? https://www.ahajournals.org/doi/10.1161/CIR.0000000000001053
