China Shows John Kerry How to Reduce Carbon Footprint: Makes Kerry Wait for a Bus – Then Sticks Him in Back
This past weekend John Kerry signed a garbage “climate change” agreement with the Chinese Communist regime.
The Chinese didn’t even wait until Kerry was out of the country before they reneged on the agreement.
While Kerry was still in Shanghai, Chinese Vice Foreign Minister Le Yucheng signaled Friday that China is unlikely to make any new pledges at next week’s summit.
One thing that was accomplished during the trip was China was able to reduce John Kerry’s carbon footprint.
Not only did they put John Kerry on a bus and force him to wait but they also stuck him in the back.
Chinese put John Kerry at the back of the bus…

They mock him.
The #CCP hired a bus from a travel company for John Kerry, and no longer arranges for officials at the state councilor level to meet him. How humiliating.https://t.co/58VQgzfnoM

Vatican To Host Fauci, Chelsea Clinton, Vaccine Company CEO’s

The Vatican is co-hosting a health conference in May that will showcase speeches by Bill and Hillary Clinton’s daughter Chelsea Clinton, vaccine guru Dr. Anthony Fauci, guru Deepak Chopra, and the Pfizer and Moderna chief executive officers who are mass-producing vaccines for the public. Pope Francis has been criticized in the past for straying into leftist politics, and this conference won’t help turn around his image. What exactly is the religious significance of mass vaccination? Regardless, the Fifth International Vatican Conference will be focused on pandemic matters, and how to “Unite To Prevent.”
The May 6-8 conference, “Exploring the Mind, Body & Soul: A Global Health Care Initiative: How Innovation and Novel Delivery Systems Improve Human Health,” is part of a conference with speakers including Aerosmith’s Joe Perry and moderators including Katie Couric. The event is set up by the Pontifical Council for Culture and the Cura Foundation, a Vatican organization. “Bridging Science and Faith” is a featured conversation at the conference.
Minnesota bishop resigns at pope’s request after abuse coverup
Bishop is first in U.S. disciplined under new Vatican policies.
Steve Ruark – Associated Press
Hoeppner is the first U.S. Catholic bishop to be disciplined under new Vatican protocols for reviewing and sanctioning bishops for sex abuse or coverups. The 2019 guidelines were put in place to enforce greater accountability of bishops when there are reports of abuse by clergy under their supervision.
Hoeppner, 71, was accused of pressuring a former deacon candidate to recant his statement that he was sexually abused as a teen by the Rev. Roger Grundhaus, a popular diocesan priest. Grundhaus has denied the abuse and Hoeppner has denied he tried to cover up the abuse claim.
Herpes Infection Possibly Linked to COVID-19 Vaccine, Study Says
Herpes Infection Possibly Linked to COVID-19 Vaccine, Study Says
Herpes infections may be a side effect of a COVID-19 vaccine, experts have revealed.
Scientists in Israel identified six cases in a new study of patients developing a skin rash known as herpes zoster — or shingles — after receiving the Pfizer vaccine, according to a study in the Rheumatology journal.
Herpes zoster starts off as a small, itchy skin rash, but if left untreated, it could cause nerve damage and pain, the Jerusalem Post reported.
Opinion: The CDC finally admits it was wrong about surface transmission of COVID-19
Contaminated surfaces have never been driving the COVID-19 pandemic, and the CDC finally clarified that this week. Though it is conceivable that you could be infected by touching an infected doorknob or pen, the CDC now admits that “the risk is generally considered to be low.” It’s so low that even if you were unlucky enough to touch a doorknob immediately after someone with COVID, you might have to touch an average of 10,000 doorknobs to get infected!
The new statements from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention are crucial and could provide a game-changing breath of fresh air. The scientific brief gives a final endorsement for us to finally move on from excessive cleaning of surfaces, which steals precious money, time, and energy, but does little to protect from infection.
Hypervigilant surface cleaning was an understandable human response to an invisibly-spread, frightening global pandemic. Cleaning gave us a visible way to join the fight against the virus. In the beginning of the pandemic, cleaning surfaces was also one of the only actions that gave a sense of control and peace. So we hoarded Clorox wipes and bleach, and we poured ourselves into cleaning with passion and fervor. Products like disinfectant foggers, were pitched at a terrified public, desperate to fight the spread.
The problem with surface cleaning is that SARS-CoV-2, which causes COVID-19, is a respiratory virus that travels primarily through the air, and cleaning surfaces does very little to stop that spread. By now, we are all weary of the fight: business and family budgets are broken, energy is waning, and attention is divided. Spending any extra energy or money on ineffective efforts distracts us from the real battle against an airborne virus. Now we can finally put all our energy into things that really protect us. To get past COVID we need to keep efforts focused on preventing airborne spread, and we can stop wasting effort on over-cleaning.
Respiratory aerosols can be inhaled no matter where you are in a room. If you are standing within a few feet from someone infected, you breathe in a high concentration of virus and the risk is highest. Even if you are standing on the other side of the room, the virus can still infect you. At first, most public health agencies wrongly assumed that COVID-19 was spreading primarily through touch or droplets. It still could be possible to get sick by shaking hands with an infected person, but increasingly deep and wide evidence has shown that inhalation of these smaller aerosols drives the majority of COVID spread.
By admitting that COVID-19 is transmitted primarily through inhalation of virus-containing aerosols, at both short distances and after mixing into the rest of the room, we can take appropriate steps to prevent it from spreading. Wearing tight-fitting masks is important because it means that aerosols can’t leak into the room or your inhaled breath through the gaps around your nose or under your chin. Keeping a few feet of distance from others is important so you back away from the exhalation zone of a potentially infected person. Reducing time indoors with other potentially infected people is important because your overall risk goes up with the number of breaths of potentially infected air you take in. Increasing ventilation and filtration is important because this helps remove the aerosols that build up indoors.
To be clear, washing your hands and doing standard cleaning of high-touch surfaces with soap is important because some spread is possible through close or frequent interactions. And getting a vaccine as soon as possible is important to protect yourself and others against worrying virus variants.

Researcher Sentenced to 33 Months in Prison for Stealing Trade Secrets to Sell in China
A hospital researcher on April 19 was sentenced to 33 months in prison for conspiring to steal trade secrets from an Ohio children’s hospital to sell in China, according to the Justice Department. Zhou Yu, 51, pleaded guilty in December 2020 to stealing at least five trade secrets relating to exosome research from the Nationwide Children’s Hospital’s Research Institute in Columbus, Ohio, where he had worked for 10 years until 2017. Exosomes are small sacs of fluid released from cells that have increasingly been used in the research, identification, and treatment of a range of diseases, including liver fibrosis and liver cancer. Zhou’s co-conspirator was his wife, Chen Li, 48, who also worked as a researcher at another lab in the institute. She was sentenced in February to 30 months in prison for her role in the scheme after also pleading guilty. “Zhou and his wife executed a scheme over the …

RAW FOOTAGE: Police Shoot Knife Wielding 16-Year-Old Columbus Girl Fighting With Another Teen

The full body cam video of the officer involved shooting of Columbus teen Ma’Khia Bryant on Tuesday afternoon was released during a press conference held by the Columbus Department of Public Safety. The video shows the young teen charging an individual with a knife before being shot by police.
16-year-old Ma’Khia Bryant was shot and killed by a police officer as she lunged at another woman during what appeared to be a large melee after police were called to the home. Bryant’s family member says police were called to end the fight happening on the property per local media WKYC. Bryant was shot by police after lunging at another woman with a knife, and was later pronounced dead in a local hospital.
About 6 minutes and 40 seconds into the video posted to YouTube, viewers can see that Bryant was wielding what appears to be a knife as she charges another individual. Right before Bryant appeared to be in the process of stabbing the individual, she was fatally shot by police. The knife apparently held by Bryant can be seen on the ground repeatedly after the shooting.
Widely circulated videos of the aftermath of the shooting have led to massive protests and unrest in Columbus, Ohio. The police urge calm even as Black Lives Matter protesters take to the streets.

Dr. Harvey Risch Reveals Over Half of the United States Has Already Reached Herd Immunity | Video: 10 Minutes 7 Seconds
Doctor Risch joins Pandemic Warroom to explain that North Dakota, South Dakota, Tennessee, Rhode Island and Utah in October and November last fall developed herd immunity naturally and symptomatic infection rates were coming down well before any vaccine. . . the CDC did blood testing and found approximately 6 times the official number were infected, most being asymptomatic and unaware they had been infected. He also explains that the vaccines are actually only 50% to 60 % effective in containing the spread of the virus, not 90% or 95%. What this means is the lockdowns have been counterproductive.

The Underground Vegetable Farm Thriving In Wartime Bunkers Below London
Deep beneath London’s suburbs lies a gigantic vegetable garden farming hundreds of thousands of the capital’s freshest microgreens.
Since 2015, Growing Underground has adopted one of eight underground World War Two bomb shelters to grow plentiful, pesticide-free produce. The farming happens entirely indoors, away all from traditional means of harvesting greens.
The project burst into the fresh produce market as the “world’s first subterranean farm” and hasn’t looked back since.
