USDA conditionally approves bird flu vaccine for poultry: report

From LifeSiteNews
Dr. Peter McCullough and his colleague are warning that poultry vaccines are ‘leaky’ and therefore will likely result in even more dangerous bird flu strains.
The U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) granted conditional approval for a new bird flu vaccine for poultry created by the animal health care company Zoetis.
Dr. Peter McCullough, one of the most highly published cardiologists in history, warned Sunday that “leaky vaccines are likely to result in new pathogens,” linking to a Substack post by John Leake, who collaborates with Dr. McCullough.
U.S. Conditionally Approves Avian Flu Vaccine for Poultry

Leake quoted from a Science magazine article explaining that the Zoetis vaccine being considered “contains a killed version of an H5N2 variant that the company has designed to work against circulating variants of the H5N1 virus that have decimated poultry flocks and have even jumped to cows and some humans.”
The vaccine cannot be administered to chickens and other poultry before it is fully approved.
Leake asserted that bird vaccines in general are “leaky,” meaning they “do not prevent infection and transmission” but are said to instead mitigate the severity of illness.
He then pointed to a paper he co-authored with Dr. McCullough and Nicolas Hulscher in which they highlighted the findings of a research team of the University of Georgia that noted in a 2021 paper when the H5N1 virus was successfully suppressed in poultry in China, H5Nx viruses emerged.
The paper concluded that “Avian influenza vaccination programs would benefit from universal vaccines targeting a wider diversity of influenza viruses to prevent the emergence of novel subtypes.”
This idea is also supported by a 2015 “landmark” paper titled Imperfect Vaccination Can Enhance the Transmission of Highly Virulent Pathogens, which was reported on in a National Geographic article titled Leaky Vaccines Enhance Spread of Deadlier Chicken Viruses.
These findings support the theory of Dr. Geert Vanden Bossche that “mass vaccination with non-sterilizing vaccines can result in the emergence of a new, more virulent viral strain,” according to Leake.
He advised that “Rather than authorizing leaky vaccines for U.S. poultry, the USDA should consider allowing the latest clade of H5N1 to run its course so that the birds can acquire natural immunity to it.”
The pressure to vaccinate chickens against bird flu is exacerbated by the fact that the current policy response to the H5N1 virus in poultry is to kill chickens en masse, significantly reducing the egg supply and driving up egg prices.
Leake maintains that mass culling and the new vaccines are “equally unlikely to end the problem.”
Dr. Robert Redfield, former director for the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), has for years warned of a dangerous impending bird flu that will devastate humans despite the fact that it has historically been detected only in animals.
In a March 30, 2022, CenterPoint interview, Redfield stated, “I believe the great pandemic is still in the future, and that’s going to be a bird flu pandemic for man. It’s going to have significant mortality in the 10% to 50% range. It’s going to be trouble.”
Remarkably, Dr. Michael Gregor, a scientist and vegan who once testified on behalf of Oprah Winfrey in her “meat defamation” trial, has repeatedly claimed that chicken farms will trigger an apocalyptic virus that will threaten half of humankind. In 2006, he published a book called Bird Flu: A Virus of Our Own Hatching, in which he asserts that “leading public health authorities now predict as inevitable a pandemic of influenza, triggered by bird flu and expected to lead to millions of deaths around the globe.”
Accordingly, Westbrook “suspects a weaponized bird flu may be released to usher in The Great Reset and Fourth Industrial Revolution, which include the elimination of traditional farming and meat consumption in favor of patented, lab-created ‘foods,’” Dr. Joseph Mercola noted. In Westbrook’s words, this would be a “a controlled demolition of the protein supply.”

Trump HHS officially declares only two sexes: ‘Back to science and common sense’

From LifeSiteNews
The memo concludes by defining “female,” “male,” “woman,” “girl,” “man,” “boy,” “mother,” and “father” accordingly, based on observable scientific fact rather than subjective thoughts or feelings of gender dysphoria.
It is the official policy of the United States once more to maintain a biology-based definition of “sex” across all federal agencies, according to a new memo from the U.S. Department of Health & Human Services (HHS).
The February 19 memo lays out the understanding of sex and related terminology to be used for the purposes of interpreting and abiding by federal rules, regulations, and partnerships.
“There are only two sexes, female and male, because there are only two types of gametes,” it says. “An individual human is either female or male based on whether the person is of the sex characterized by a reproductive system with the biological function of producing eggs (ova) or sperm. The sex of a human, female or male, is determined genetically at conception (fertilization), and is observable before birth.”
Sex, the memo continues, “is unchangeable and determined by objective biology. The use of hormones or surgical interventions do not change a person’s sex because such actions do not change the type of gamete that the person’s reproductive system has the biological function to produce. Rare disorders of sexual development do not constitute a third sex because these disorders do not lead to the production of a third gamete.”
The memo concludes by defining “female,” “male,” “woman,” “girl,” “man,” “boy,” “mother,” and “father” accordingly, based on observable scientific fact rather than subjective thoughts or feelings of gender dysphoria.
“It took many years of effort but we are finally back to science and common sense,” reacted Roger Severino, former director of the HHS Office for Civil Rights (OCR) in the first Trump administration.
It is an article of progressive faith that gender is no more than a matter of self-perception that individuals are free to change at will. But according to modern biology, sex is not a subjective sense of self but an objective scientific reality, established by an individual’s chromosomes from their earliest moments of existence and reflected by hundreds of genetically based characteristics.
Yet for years LGBT activists have worked to promote “gender fluidity,” the idea that sexual identity is separate from biology and discernible only by personal perception, across public education, libraries, health care, and cultural traditions such as beauty contests, school homecomings, and athletic competitions.
Critics say their efforts have yielded a wide array of harms, both to the physical and mental health of gender-confused individuals themselves as well as to the rights, health, and safety of those who disagree, such as girls and women forced to share intimate facilities with males, female athletes forced to compete against biological males with natural physical advantages, and individuals forced to affirm false sexual identities in violation of their consciences, their understanding of scientific fact, and/or their religious beliefs.
Since returning to office, President Donald Trump has taken multiple executive actions to reverse the Biden administration’s transgender policies, including an order that ends all federal support for “transition” procedures on minors, rescinds or amends all of the Biden health bureaucracy’s past endorsements of underage “transitioning,” and calls for a review of the medical literature on the subject, enforcing all existing restrictions on underage “transitioning,” and taking regulatory action to “end” the practice to the greatest extent possible under current law.
Another order prohibits males who claim to be female from competing against actual women in sex-specific athletic programs at schools receiving government funding. A third disqualifies gender-confused individuals from military service and prohibits military health services from conducting “transition” treatments and procedures.

Trudeau government buys 500k bird flu vaccines to be ‘ready’ for potential ‘health threats’

From LifeSiteNews
Bill Gates and Dr. Anthony Fauci spent years funding research to “develop a bird flu pathogen capable of infecting humans,” as Alexis Baden-Mayer showed in an article published last year. Some of this gain-of-function research has taken place in U.S. Department of Defense-funded biolabs in Ukraine
The federal government under Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has bought 500,000 doses of bird flu vaccines for humans to be “ready” for any future “potential health threats.”
Canada’s Public Health Agency announced yesterday it purchased GSK’s human vaccine against avian influenza. The agency says the jabs will not be distributed to people at this point but notes that 60 percent of the doses will go to all provinces and territories with the rest going into a large federal stockpile.
According to the Public Health Agency, the jabs are to be ready to be given to those who are considered at increased risk such as those who are in contact with animals.
As of now, the Public Health Agency says the risk of a bird flu outbreak in the general public is low, however, on November 9, Canada reported its first domestic human case of the bird flu.
As reported by LifeSiteNews, Dr. Peter McCullough, a highly published cardiologist, has said gain-of-function research is a likely explanation for a “jump” in bird flu animal-to-human cases, alluding to the fact that it has historically only been detected in animals. He called for a shutdown of U.S. gain-of-function labs and warned that animal culling and bird flu vaccines would only create “more resistant strains.”
Canada’s Chief Public Health Officer, Dr. Theresa Tam, who is a strong proponent of the COVID shots, said that by buying the bird flu jabs, “we are enhancing our capacity to protect people in Canada and respond rapidly to emerging public health challenges.”
When it comes to the bird flu, recently, Dr. Robert Malone, a virologist and pioneer-turned-critic of mRNA technology, said U.S. President Donald Trump’s administration is having high-level discussions about distributing bird flu mRNA “vaccines.”
Malone pointed out that Dr. Gerald Parker, DVM, who was recently appointed the White House Pandemic czar, is a “big fan” of Peter Hotez, a radical pro-vaccine scientist who has claimed that anti-vaccine activism is a “major killing force globally.”
Dr. Joseph Mercola also pointed out in 2022 that Bill Gates and Dr. Anthony Fauci have spent years funding research to “develop a bird flu pathogen capable of infecting humans,” as Alexis Baden-Mayer showed in an article published last year. Some of this gain-of-function research has taken place in U.S. Department of Defense-funded biolabs in Ukraine.
In a March 30, 2022, CenterPoint interview, Redfield stated, “I believe the great pandemic is still in the future, and that’s going to be a bird flu pandemic for man. It’s going to have significant mortality in the 10 to 50% range. It’s going to be trouble.”
