Ok, let’s all take a deep breath now …preferably a fair distance from anyone who’s coughing πŸ˜‰
Some basic recommendations to keep yourself safe AND sane:

1. Distancing. The idea that staying home means never breathing oxygen outside 4 walls and a ceiling is neither sensible nor tenable. Walks are both acceptable and necessary to maintain our health and well being! BUT… this means only with whomever lives in your household and NOBODY ELSE, NO EXCEPTIONS! (Cousins and neighbors count).
Keep a distance from others at all times. And no parks, playgrounds or anywhere others will inevitably join you.

2. Masks. You don’t need one in your home unless you are sick personally and want to protect others or you are providing care for an elderly or immune compromised person.

You also don’t NEED one to go out to the store for groceries or at work IF you can maintain strict distancing and hand hygiene. However, this is challenging if you can’t completely avoid separation from others eg. At the cash register. For this reason I would recommend wearing a mask for these situations. A surgical mask is not needed for this. Save these for health care workers please.
You can make your own from cotton, antimicrobial pillow cases, vacuum bags, and pretty much anything that can cover your face and withstand humidity. I personally recommend cotton or pillowcase material since this is easy to wash and reuse.

3. Food. Coronavirus doesn’t thrive in food or packaging. You won’t die from your takeout pizza or drive thru coffee, I promise you!
It does not aerosolize from these surfaces or materials. When you retrieve your food or groceries, do so with clean HANDS and avoid touching your face. Doing this is more than adequate for protection.
Want to put the takeout box and grocery bags in a dedicated garbage? Fine, but not necessary by any means. And save your wipes for places hands go all the time: table tops, counters, light switches, PHONES, tablets, remotes, game controllers, door knobs, faucets and taps. This is the viral hood!

4. Mental Health. Everyone is anxious, uneasy, worried. Some are depressed, overwhelmed, even panicked. It’s ok to admit this. It’s important. Try not to judge but instead to help and support whomever you can. Talk to each other! Listen to someone. Donate something to a homeless shelter or a community mental health organization. Giving will give you back so much more than you could imagine.

5. Breathe. As daunting as this is, it will end at some point when our containment strategies pay dividends, the virus runs out of susceptible people to infect and enough exposed and recovered people become immune. Take this time to reframe life habits and a perspective towards minimizing waste, maximizing time for those you love and need you, and learning that humility and patience are our greatest teachers and guides.

I wish you all health, safety, and sanity. These are dark times, but there is light in our eyes and hope in our hearts. Never forget.

Canadian student denied religious exemption for COVID jab takes tech school to court

The Justice Centre for Constitutional Freedoms is helping Philip Anisimov fight Ontario Tech University, which this week has to defend in court its decision to deregister the student.

An Ontario university student who was kicked out of school after his religious-based COVID vaccine exemption request was rejected is in court to argue his civil rights were violated.

The Justice Centre for Constitutional Freedoms (JCCF) is helping Philip Anisimov fight Ontario Tech University, which this week has to defend in court its decision to deregister the student for choosing not to receive the experimental,Β abortion-tainted COVID shots on religious grounds.

According to aΒ press releaseΒ from the JCCF, yesterday, April 15, and today, April 16, Anisimov’s legal team will be making arguments in an Ontario court that the university β€œviolated his right to be free from discrimination on the basis of his religion.”

β€œThe University tried to characterize Mr. Anisimov’s belief as a personal preference by arguing that vaccination is not truly contrary to his faith,” noted constitutional lawyer Hatim Kheir.

β€œDecision-makers are not permitted to engage in speculation and theological debates about which dogma is correct. So long as a belief is religious in nature and sincerely held, it must be accommodated,” Kheir explained, outlining how theΒ Human Rights CodeΒ of the province has to be interpreted according to the law.

Anisimov’s case goes back to August 30, 2021, when Ontario, under the direction of its Chief Medical Health Officer Dr. Kieran Moore, mandated that all students in the province show proof of vaccination unless they have an exemption or agree to attend a COVID jab education session boasting about the shots.

However, the third option was not available at Ontario Tech University, as the government mandate allowed schools to chose whether or not they would offer such a program to students.

As a result, Anisimov, who had requested accommodation for religious reasons but was denied, was deregistered from all his courses.

He was then forced to spend an entire extra year to complete his studies. According to his lawyers, Ontario Tech University’s decision to not approve his COVID jab exemption request β€œnot only disrupted his career plans but also violated his right to be free from discrimination on the basis of religion, as protected by the Ontario Human Rights Code.”

β€œMr. Anisimov has a sincere religious objection to the COVID vaccines and could have been accommodated without difficulty,” he added.

COVID vaccine mandates, as well as lockdowns, which came from provincial governments with the support of the federal government, split Canadian society. The mRNA shots haveβ€―been linked toβ€―a multitude of negative and often severe side effects in children.

Beyond health concerns, many Canadians, especially Catholics, opposed the vaccines on moral grounds because of theirΒ link to fetal cell lines derived from the tissue of aborted babies.

COVID virus, vaccines are driving explosion in cancer, billionaire scientist tells Tucker Carlson

The spike protein from the COVID virus and shots cause persistent inflammation, which in turn suppresses the immune system, according to the accomplished Dr. Patrick Soon-Shiong.

A billionaire scientist and cancer drug inventor told Tucker Carlson that the COVID virus and mRNA β€œvaccine” are driving an explosion in cancer among the young and old alike.

Dr. Patrick Soon-Shiong, a transplant surgeon and owner of theΒ Los Angeles Times,Β recently broke down in an interview how the COVID spike protein, persisting in people’s bodies both from the virus and the mRNA shots, is contributing to unprecedented cancer diagnoses.

Soon-Shiong likened the disturbing rise in atypical, aggressive cancerΒ casesΒ to aΒ β€œnon-infectious pandemic,” now claiming the lives of young people afflicted with cancers highly unusual for their age. He cited the fatal post-COVID case of a 13-year-old boy he had seen with pancreatic cancer usually found in people at least 45 to 50 years old.

He told Carlson how these cases were concerning him so much that he called a doctor friend whose experience mirrored his own. Soon-Shiong recounted how his friend told him, β€œPatrick, I’m now seeing an eight-year-old, a 10-year-old and 11-year-old with colon cancer … We’re seeing now 30-year-old, 40-year-old ladies, young ladies with ovarian cancer.”

Soon-Shiong explained that the challenge presented by cancer can be distilled into the question of how we can increase or activate the cancer killer cells and decrease or deactivate the cells that suppress the killer cells, which he called suppressor cells.

According to the doctor, what knocks these cells β€œout of equilibrium” is essentially inflammation.

A mechanism by which inflammation can help contribute to cancer is by flipping infection-killing neutrophils into suppressor cells, when the inflammation is β€œpersistent,” according to Soon-Shiong.

Worse, after 50 years of scientific research and practice, he believes that β€œeverything we’re doing” to address cancer β€œis tipping the scales towards the suppressor cells.”

To give context to the potential impact of COVID and its β€œvaccine,” he pointed out that there are cancer-causing viruses, called oncogenic, which persist in the body, thereby creating ongoing inflammation. COVID itself, as well as the mRNA shots created in response to the virus, both produce inflammatory spike proteins, he noted, which attach to blood vessels with ACE-2 receptors, found all throughout the body.

β€œSo is it by coincidence that post COVID infection, post COVID vaccine, we’re seeing all these events where we know the spike protein goes? I don’t think so. I think it’s not a coincidence,” Soon-Shiong said. β€œSo the question is, can we prove, is what I call long COVID virus persisting?”

β€œAnd the group at University of California, San Francisco, has now definitively proven that and published that in papers like Nature,” the doctor noted.

He said there is also published research showing that the persistence of the virus, which is likely the reason for β€œlong COVID” symptoms, suppresses natural cancer-killer cells, making them β€œgo to sleep.”

β€œAnd that’s why I sort of abandoned everything just to focus on how do we clear the virus, because the answer is to clear the virus from the body, the answer is to stop the inflammation,” Soon-Shiong said.

He has found that the virus persists in the body at least three to four years, and told Carlson he believes it cannot be cleared from a body that is immunosuppressed.

This accords with a Harvard study pointed to by the prolific internist and cardiologist Dr. Peter McCullough, which shows that those suffering from long COVID likely have spike protein from the virus circulating in their bloodstream.

However, according to medical freedom champion Dr. Mark Trozzi and other doctors, there areΒ simple waysΒ people can clear their body of the COVID virus (or shot’s) spike protein, to which Soon-Shiong himself attributes the illness caused by the virus.

Trozzi has sharedΒ three methodsΒ by which one can help clear out the spike protein and minimize its effects: Accelerating the process of autophagy through intermittent fasting; ingesting Nattokinase, which β€œdigests” the spike protein; and taking substances that block the uptake of the spike protein, such as ivermectin and quercetin.

Soon-Shiong believes the only way to clear the body of the virus itself is to have a β€œT cell, natural killer (NK) cells,” (a type of T cell), which are white blood cells which kill cancer cells. He attributed the fact that he himself did not suffer from a COVID infection to the manipulation of his own immune system, through what he calls a β€œbioshield.”

What the bioshield does is β€œeducate your body to have these T cells, called memory T cells, that go and hide in the bone marrow and come out when they need it and kill that cell,” Soon-Shiong said. He told Carlson it was approved for public use in the U.S. in 2024 for bladder cancer.

Asked how we can strengthen our immune system for disease in general, Soon-Shiong said we should seek to β€œactivate” the natural killer cell. This immune cell can be replenished with sleep and exposure to sunlight and can be preserved by avoiding food that has an immunosuppressive effect. This means sticking to natural foods and avoiding processed foods with toxins, such as red dye, according to the doctor.

During his interview with Carlson, Soon-Shiong also discussed how his proposed interventions for COVID were shut down by the FDA, the efforts to find β€œdirt” on him to prevent him from becoming the head of the NIH, his thoughts on Robert F. Kennedy Jr., the healthcare establishment’s conflicts of interest, and why he decided to buy theΒ Los Angeles Times.
