A service member who earlier this year blew the whistle and disclosed data from a Pentagon medical database showing a spike in the rate of myocarditis in the military in 2021, after the rollout of COVID-19 vaccines, is going public. The whistleblower is active-duty Navy Medical Service Corps officer Lt. Ted Macie. He has also revealed new data showing a substantial rise in accidents, assaults, self-harm, and suicide attempts in the military in 2021, compared to the average from 2016 to 2021.

A German court has sentenced one of its own judges to prison for ruling against the government’s mask mandates. In 2021, Judge Christian Dettmar struck down a local government ordinance that required schoolchildren to wear masks in the German state of Thuringia. The case made headlines across Germany. Judge Dettmar is now set to lose his legal career and pension and receive a two-year suspended prison sentence for allegedly “perverting the law.” During the pandemic-era lockdowns, the Thuringian state government ruled that all children were to wear masks while at school, stay a minimum distance from each other, and take…

Tens of thousands of teenagers have been forced to rethink their future options after GCSE results fell in England as ministers forced through plans to eradicate grade inflation accumulated during the pandemic. Top grades in England were down more than four percentage points on last year’s results, leading to disappointment for many pupils – with 22.4% of results for 16-year-olds at grade 7 or above, equivalent to an A. Results were expected to fall after the government announced plans to return grades to 2019 levels, though this year’s results still hovered slightly above pre-pandemic levels when 21.9% of grades were 7 and…

Although we’ve been told Pfizer’s COVID-19 vaccine is manufactured with harmless messenger RNA (mRNA), the U.S. Food and Drug Administration’s (FDA) product label shows it contains artificially modified RNA—a key ingredient that is not naturally occurring, poses a substantial risk to human health. According to Pfizer and BioNTech’s COVID-19 vaccine label in the FDA’s Fact Sheet for Healthcare Providers, each Pfizer vaccine dose for children ages 5 through 11 contains 10 micrograms (mcg) of modRNA, while fully-approved Comirnaty authorized for use in individuals 12 years of age and older contains 30 mcg of modRNA. Pfizer, on its website, confirms its COVID-19 vaccine contains modRNA: “ModRNA stands for nucleoside-modified…

The majority of Wilko stores are set to close in the next week after a purchase of the retailer fell through, a union has said. In a meeting with administrators on Wednesday, the GMB union said it was informed there is no longer any prospect that the majority of the business will be saved.

This has been denied by the administrators, who said: “In the immediate term, all stores remain open, continue to trade and staff continue to be paid. Contrary to speculation,…

Petrol prices in the UK have risen to an average 150p a litre for the first time since January, according to data from the AA. Figures show the average unleaded price now stands at 150.1p a litre while the cost of diesel has jumped to 152.41p – further raising the financial pressures already facing the country.

The problem is knowing where they are,” he said. The latest report comes…
