Covid Report

Researchers discovered structural differences in the brain white matter of COVID-19 patients with persisting symptoms, using advanced diffusion MRI technology.

Researchers uncovered how Alzheimer's Disease (AD) impacts COVID-19 outcomes through changes in the olfactory mucosal cells.

Yet another reason to make sure you get vaccinated against COVID-19, especially if you are pregnant.

A novel artificial intelligence (AI) tool can identify non-smokers who are at high risk for lung cancer using a routine chest X-ray image, according to researchers, including one of Indian-origin.

'There’s not great evidence to support SARS-CoV-2 being an oncogenic virus–but this virus has surprised us over and over.'

The World Health Organization is lying and telling us that they don’t want to take away the power of governments and be the world’s global decision maker. This is part of the pandemic treaty we’ve been talking about. But because so many people are waking up to how terrifying this is, the head of the WHO, Dr. Tedros, is saying that reports about the pandemic treaty are “fake news, lies, conspiracy theories, misinformation and disinformation.” He's lying!

From August to October 2021, Leah McInnes denounced the government's pandemic response, sparking an investigation by the College of Registered Nurses of Saskatchewan (CRNS) into her off-duty activism. They accused her of spreading 'misinformation' over her dissenting views.

At least hundreds of unvaccinated B.C. health care workers who lost their jobs during the COVID pandemic have filed a class-action lawsuit against provincial health officer Dr. Bonnie Henry.

As doctors recommend new COVID-19 vaccine doses to combat the XBB.1.5 Omicron subvariant, a mutation of COVID-19 that has continued to spread despite misconceptions that the virus is a threat of the past, officials say Canada has sufficient supply.

The World Health Organization has updated its guidelines for the treatment of COVID-19 patients, including categories of hospitalization risk to help doctors tailor treatment, and recommendations surrounding a new antiviral designed specifically to tackle the disease.

Provincial Health Officer Dr. Bonnie Henry says B.C. is leading the way in Canada when it comes to vaccinations against the flu and COVID-19.

Everyone should get the new COVID-19 vaccine if they haven’t already. You need the updated COVID-19 vaccine if you’re older than 6 months and you’ve never been vaccinated or were previously vaccinated longer than two months ago.

The agency has acknowledged the presence of at least one undisclosed plasmid DNA sequence in COVID-19 vaccine vials, raising concerns about public safety and regulatory diligence, especially amid ongoing missing information and lack of long-term safety data.

Health Canada has confirmed knowledge of undisclosed DNA contaminants in Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine vials, raising concerns over long-term safety risks and prompting a call for the regulator to immediately halt these vaccines due to regulatory issues and the potential for genomic integration.

Will Pfizer get sued out of existence because of the SV40 contamination in the vaccine? Well, a judge in Michigan recently pierced the armor of the PREP Act, which gave immunity to big Pharma from liability claims related to Covid products. So now that we know that the SV40 DNA sequence was in the vaccine and possibly not disclosed, will this mean legal problems for drug makers?? And how serious is this SV40 business anyway?

The U.S. government is returning 8 million doses of Paxlovid to Pfizer as the biopharmaceutical company announces that it will sell the antiviral drug for $1,400 for a five-day course. This is nearly triple what the U.S. government paid for it. This as the efficacy of Paxlovid has never been definitively proven.

The FDA has approved a new Covid vaccine by Novavax for anyone over the age of 12. They did this based on previous safety and effectiveness data rather than a clinical trial of this vaccine. The approval of the new Pfizer and Moderna vaccines were done the same way. No new clinical trials. Who needs those!? But are they "safe and effective"? We will take a look.

The South China Morning Post reported on Dr. Shi Zhengli's July paper, warning about the potential resurgence of coronaviruses. While Dr. Shi's research mainly analyzes coronavirus characteristics, it highlights the unresolved origin of COVID-19. Questions persist about why she conducted extensive research to enhance coronavirus functions and the lab safety concerns after a photograph surfaced showing her and colleagues without protective gear. The paper's delayed attention in China may be due to language differences and waning interest amid the shift away from the "zero-COVID" policy. Concerns grow as China hinders WHO experts' investigations. The next coronavirus-like pandemic may follow a similar pattern, with China relying on strict controls and Western democracies using advanced technology to develop solutions. Global cooperation is crucial to address potential bioterrorist threats.
