U.S. Opens To Foreign Travelers With New Requirements – The administration will be allowing some unvaccinated international travelers to come into the United States, but the allowance will reportedly be few.

The White House noted that these exceptions will be extended to children under the age of 18, “certain COVID-19 vaccine clinical trial participants, those with medical contraindications to the vaccines, those who need to travel for emergency or humanitarian reasons (with a US government-issued letter affirming the urgent need to travel), those who are traveling on non-tourist visas from countries with low-vaccine availability (as determined by the CDC), and other very narrow categories.” – READ MORE

So Now Most Truck Drivers Will Be Exempt From Vaccine Mandates – That announcement from President Joe Biden about federal vaccine mandates that would affect nearly all workers in the private sector is about as solid as a slice of swiss cheese. Every time we think we’re getting our heads wrapped around it, more changes or exceptions seem to appear. The latest is being hailed by representatives of the trucking industry as “a huge victory” because the Department of Labor has now decided that most truckers will not fall under the mandate. And if they do, they will have the option of submitting weekly negative COVID tests instead of getting the shot if they wish. So what makes truck drivers so special? Read on and find out, but it’s probably not any of the obvious answers that might jump to mind. – READ MORE

Chinese Media Brags About Kindergarteners ‘With QR Codes Hung Around Their Necks’ In Queue For COVID Testing – Chinese-state media bragged over the weekend over a video that showed young children in line with QR codes hung around their necks waiting to be tested for the coronavirus, writing that it was “cute and brave!”

“Cute and brave! Self-discipline and hard-working are keys to why China can defeat rounds of COVID-19 outbreak,” Chinese propagandist Hu Xijin, editor of China’s state-run Global Times, tweeted. “Even kids from kindergarten, with QR code hung around their necks, queued in an orderly manner for nucleic acid test.” – READ MORE

Sports Media Demonize Aaron Rodgers, Nearly Silent on NFL Player Who Killed a Woman – The sports media is filled with story after story attacking Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers over his vaccine reluctance. Meanwhile, they’ve given only perfunctory coverage to Henry Ruggs III, who killed a woman during a drunk driving crash.

Rodgers, of course, has become a target for insisting that he has allergy problems with the various coronavirus vaccines and that he won’t take them for fear of having an adverse reaction. He engaged in a lengthy interview to explain his reasoning on Friday, but his explanations did not mollify the sports media in the least. – READ MORE

Is Our Military Being Used as Vaccine Guinea Pigs? A Flight Surgeon’s Testimony Will Make You Wonder – Last week, with little fanfare and almost no media coverage, Senator Ron Johnson (R-Wis.) held an expert panel on federal vaccine mandates. The testimony from the vaccine-injured was heartbreaking, and the lack of support and acknowledgment from the FDA, NIH, CDC, and vaccine manufacturers is infuriating. However, Lieutenant Colonel Teresa Long, a Brigade Surgeon in the 1st Airborne Brigade of the U.S. Army, gave the most shocking testimony.

In May 2021, Long attended a senior preventative medicine leadership course where senior medical staff discussed the COVID-19 vaccines. Following the presentation, she reports asking the following question, “So, we skipped two years of phase two trials and three years of phase three trials? We only lost 12 active-duty soldiers to COVID-19. Yet, we are going to risk the health of the entire fighting force on a vaccine we only have two months of safety data on?” – READ MORE

“People Don’t Know The Special Fund Exists” – Feds Pay Zero Claims For COVID-19 Vaccine Injuries/Deaths – In fiscal year 2021, the U.S. government paid $246.9 million in claims for vaccine-related injuries and deaths. Not a single payout was related to Covid-19 vaccines.

Each person with a “provable” injury from a Covid vaccine could claim up to $379,000 from a special Covid vaccine fund set up by the federal government. The payout for death could be as high as $370,376. – READ MORE
