Now see, in a perfect and just world, there wouldn't be a need to call the police to handle this situation... just saying.

For an assault?

For an assault?

In this particular assault case, was there a need to necessarily have the police involved? Or was there an alternative way of diffusing this? A more "hands on" alternative?

Did he leave when asked? He clearly assaulted someone else and should be arrested for it. Did the victim call the police

CDC and FDA 'altered' Covid guidance and even 'suppressed' findings while under political pressure, bombshell report suggests - with employees left fearing 'retaliation' if they spoke up

CDC and FDA officials 'altered' Covid guidance and even 'suppressed' findings related to the virus due to political pressure, a bombshell report suggests.

Investigators from watchdog the Government Accountability Office (GAO) spoke to more than a dozen directors and managers who worked at the agencies behind the country's pandemic guidance.

They unearthed allegations of 'political interference' in scientific reports, raising fears that research was tampered with.

In its 37-page report, GAO warned neither agency had a system in place for reporting allegations of political interference. It also said they had failed to train staff how to spot and report this.

Whistleblowers said they did not speak up at the time for fear of retaliation, because they were unsure how to report the issues or believed leaders were already aware.

This is just the latest in a growing patchwork of reports suggesting politicians influenced 'scientific' papers during the pandemic for their own ends.

Just last night the Biden administration's top medical adviser Dr Anthony Fauci declared the U.S. is now 'out of the pandemic phase' of Covid, citing low cases and hospitalizations.

But health experts were quick to question the claim — buried at the end of an interview with PBS' NewsHour — suggesting he may have bungled his words and should only have said the nation was in a phase of 'low hospitalizations'.

Not now, bird flu! China confirms first human case of H3N8 strain

China has logged the world's first ever human case of the H3N8 bird flu strain.

A four-year-old boy from Zhumadian, in the Henan province, tested positive for the avian influenza strain, local health chiefs confirmed.

The virus is usually spread through touching infected birds and their droppings, or when preparing infected poultry for cooking.

No worries. China has shown their excellence in isolating infected and limiting spread.

‘It's insanity’: Providers End Covid care for Uninsured in the wake of congressional inaction

Less access could also prolong the pandemic, allowing the virus to circulate and perhaps provide a haven for new, more dangerous variants.

Community Health Development, a Texas clinic, announced it is cutting back Covid-19 care for uninsured patients after federal pandemic funding for testing, treatment and vaccines ran out in recent weeks.

The health center in Uvalde, about 60 miles from the Mexican border, serves a population that is majority Hispanic and uninsured. It now offers free Covid-19 vaccines one day a week instead of six. It has restricted testing and may have to eliminate services, increase patient fees or even lay off staff if Congress doesn’t soon approve additional Covid money.

The cuts at the not-for-profit clinic, which serves about 11,000 patients, are just one example of how Covid-19 programs around the country have shrunk over the last month, a consequence of Congress’ failure to provide fresh funding to combat the pandemic.

This has been obvious for almost 2 years now, for anyone with a few brain cells. I'm sure it won't make the news though.

COVID-19 Policies Wrecked Public School Enrollment and Student Outcomes

gotta love this mentality - we screwed ourselves and the government might stop bailing us out so it's Armageddon

"New York City, the largest district in the nation, has lost a staggering 9.5 percent of students since the onset of COVID-19. Los Angeles Unified, the second largest, where unions have had particular success in getting most every restriction and compensation they wanted, the student body shrank 8.1 percent. School Superintendent Alberto Carvalho, in an article earlier this month at The 74 Million, described the confluence of the enrollment drop and the drying out of the nearly $200 billion in emergency federal COVID relief funds to K-12 schools as potentially "Armageddon.""

It’s honestly borderline infuriating seeing the latest research and reports confirming EXACTLY what many people were warning of summer into fall of 2020.

Yes in about 6-7 months it will be 24/7 in the MSM . Well at least the lower rated MSM will be promoting , umm i mean reporting it .

 

[mr.checkerboards]

Of course the pandemic is over, just in time for mid terms and re election talk. Just like anyone with a brain predicted 2 years ago.

Yes but there'll be a surge in Sept that necessitates mailing ballots to all "citizens" and a drop box on every corner...to stop the spread

 

[Rasputin_Vol]

Did he leave when asked?

Looks like he eventually did in this case. But had he not left, would the police really need to be called in this situation?

He clearly assaulted someone else and should be arrested for it. Did the victim call the police

Not sure, if the victim called the cops. I'm just asking is this a situation that couldn't be handled by the people already there and not necessarily needing the police involved.

Weird... it's almost like this virus is attacking people with a particular ideology and necessarily based on genetics, race, gender or other biological trend.

This sort of crap is so disappointing. I hate that my profession will take such a credibility hit from its response to CV19.

I will admit that the first couple of months in 2019 were scary to us all. However, a thorough review of data from Europe and (gasp) China reassured me that kids were at minimal risk, basically zero for healthy children. I predicted that shutdowns, educational interruptions, lack of exercise, nutritional issues, and psychological challenges would be a much bigger problem.

My office stayed open, we kept well visits, and we saw kids with fever and cold symptoms, when many practices chose different paths. I've taken care of roughly 1,000 kids with COVID now, not including at least that many seen by my fellow providers.

We managed to keep our entire staff employed, we have seen zero cases of long- term COVID-19 complications, and we've actually had an influx of patients from practices in the area that went a little crazy.

I'm very thankful that the virus itself was so easy on children, but it's still incredibly hard to deal with the aftermath of our reaction.

I hope that the field of medicine will learn valuable lessons from this debacle.

TBH, I dont blame doctors that much in all this. Yes, some went crazy and deserve the back lash they get, but the bigger issue was how politicized the virus was and how politicians used it for their advantage instead of doing what was right.
