    A liberal publication - The Intercept initially wanted the documents from the NIH to debunk Rand Paul's claims and vindicate Fauci over U.S. funded gain of function research going towards the virus, but the opposite happened!
    They were smart enough not to mention Fauci by name though. Only mentioned the agency he heads up.

        Monoclonal antibody treatment has been found to reduce hospitalization and death from COVID by a stunning 70%, with almost no side effects, based on preliminary findings in recent studies.

        availability (which you can view, here) is just not getting out fast enough.

            Do you know what else reduces the chance of hospitalization and death? A covid 19 vaccine.

                A beloved fire chief in Florida has died after a weeks-long battle against COVID-19, sending shockwaves through the community and devastating a fire department that has been ravaged by the virus.

                Lake City Fire Department Chief Randy Burnham, a member of the department for more than 30 years, had been on a ventilator after he got sick with the virus in August, around the same time that almost half of the 24-person department contracted COVID-19.

                        — A Pinellas County mother died from COVID-19 before getting a chance to meet her newborn.


                        Jessica Six contracted the virus in August. Her sister, Stephanie Six, said the 33-year-old stayed at home for about a week before going to the hospital.

                        "She had a sore throat and a cough," said her sister Stephanie Six.

                        "She had to miss her baby shower and everything and quarantine," she added.

                        Her family said Jessica had trouble breathing. She was placed on a ventilator and doctors delivered her baby by emergency C-section about three weeks ago.


                        "They tested the baby. She came back fine. She didn't have any COVID symptoms or test positive for COVID or anything. She was actually transported to All Children's Hospital," said Six.

                        Stephanie said her sister's daughter, Kaydence, was born a month early. The baby spent a few days in the hospital, but is now home with family.

                        The 33-year-old died on Sunday, September 5. Her family said she suffered from cardiac arrest and a collapsed lung.

                        "It doesn't feel real. It doesn't feel real at all. One minute, you're here and then the next this happens, you know. It was so unexpected. She was my best friend," said Stephanie.

                        Her family said Jessica was not vaccinated.

                          Re: Latest on the Corona Virus

                          So, my oldest daughter and I had the sniffles starting this past Friday. We normally get some Spring/ Fall allergy crap going on every year when the temperature starts to shift, and we didn't think much of it and she went to school yesterday (had labor day off). The school ended up sending her home based on her constant sniffling (runny nose) and some sneezing. They advised us to get her tested. The tests suck, so I told her I would go get it with her to try and ease her anxiety about it (She had to do it last year and hated it). I also went ahead and got the antibody test done.
                          Well, the tests came back negative today, BUT the antibody blood test showed that I have the antibodies! We haven't had any "symptoms" of Covid since late last year (those tests came back negative also), and even those were very very minor (attributing to allergies again).

                          The virus seems to not have affected me or my family at all over the course of the pandemic. The only time we were down and out for a while was back around November of 2019 (missed out on thanksgiving because of it), and it affected everyone in my family including our DOGS! That "mystery illness" was SEVERE! Severe Coughing and hacking, headaches, body aches, exhaustion, confusion (on my wife's part), extremely runny noses, etc.! It was 3 - 4 weeks of ABSOLUTE MISERY. Since then, we have not had anything like that. The reason I called it "mystery illness" (what the doctors called it) was because we got tested for everything (Flu A, Flu B, Strep, Norovirus, etc, etc.), and all those tests came back negative.

                          Could it be that we've had these antibodies through the entire course of this pandemic, and thus have not had any problems with this virus?

                          My question now is......do I need the vaccine if I already have natural immunity built up? Studies are showing that both vaccinated and unvaccinated people carry the same viral load, and BOTH can still infect people. So, if I'm protected by natural immunity, and the other person is vaccinated, we should be good, right?

                            Herd immunity has shown to be more effective than the shot.

                              .... are you trying to roll the dice every day with COVID-19D! Get the two damm shots and be done with it.

                              As a copier tech you are out in public and in contact with lots of people. The odds are not in your favour.

                              You never want to take a chance on long term COVID plus the insurance companies will bankrupt you.

                                So even though I have a naturally built up immunity to this virus based on the antibody test, and NOT ONCE have had any symptoms that can be attributed to Covid, you're still advising me to get the vaccine?
                                I would really like to hear your logic for that, and I'm not being sarcastic when I say that.

                                I haven't taken a single day off (aside from a few out of state vacations, and a medical procedure) during this whole pandemic, and have never fallen ill, or had any symptoms from this virus.
                                As I said before, we had some runny noses and sinus crap last year, but those tests also came back negative for Covid.
                                I feel like I'm pretty well protected from this virus, even more so now that I know I have a natural immunity (antibodies) to the virus. So I guess, as you say, I'll "roll the dice", because the odds are definitely in my favor.

                                Do we not "roll the dice" every day when we drive on any roadway? Or walk to work?
                                Do we not "roll the dice" every day when we log in to our computer, knowing that there are thousands of hackers and computer viruses out there?
                                Are people "rolling the dice" every time they walk down a set of stairs? Take a shower? Cook?
                                Do we not "roll the dice" every day when it comes to Carbon Monoxide in our houses?
                                We ALL "roll the dice" every day when we walk out of our front door, whether it's from a virus or physical harm.
