During the Milken Institute Future of Healthcare Summit in 2019, Fauci joined a panel moderated by New Yorker staff writer Michael Specter discussing the future of vaccine development. During the discussion, the topic shifted to the premise of a universal flu vaccine. Specter introduces the idea by stating that a the medical paradigm behind vaccines needs to be completely changed, asking “Why don’t we blow the system up? I mean, obviously we can’t just turn off the spigot on the system that we have an say ‘Oh hey, everyone in the world should get this new vaccine we haven’t given to anyone yet’ but there must be some way.”

BREAKING: During an interview with Stew Peters, Dr Jane Ruby provided Breaking information, corroborated by multiple sources, that a Vaxxed Delta Airlines pilot died in flight within the last two weeks, an emergency landing was forced, and the company is covering it up!

It was a disastrous weekend for Southwest Airlines. Across Saturday and Sunday, they canceled more than 2,100 flights, about a quarter of their total. Now here’s where it gets interesting: It’s extremely obvious someone is lying about why. In a statement, Southwest blamed bad weather and air traffic control problems. But the Federal Aviation Administration says, no, there haven’t been any air traffic control issues since last Friday. And if “Bad weather” was forcing cancellations, it was a peculiar kind of weather that only affected Southwest and its airplanes.

Other airlines didn’t have mass cancellations. There was some rain and thunderstorms in Florida, but no hurricanes. Nothing that required a mass shutdown.

No, somebody is lying here. And it could be from both Southwest and the FAA.

There are reports that in Jacksonville, Florida, air traffic controllers walked off the job to protest against vaccine mandates. But that might not be all. Southwest announced a vaccine mandate for all personnel last week, and there are reports that pilots are joining the resistance as well. But Southwest’s pilot’s union claims there is no such protest action underway; they say that “poor planning” by Southwest management caused the cancellations. So maybe the union is lying or clueless as well.

To unravel all of this, Dr. Jane Ruby joined the show to discuss.

Reuters Destroys Covid Myths: Delta Does Not Make Children Sicker, Vaccines Not as Strong as Natural Immunity

October 10, 2021

Written by Kyle Becker

The Reuters cited a “summary of recent studies” that Americans who have been following the actual science on Covid-19 have been waiting to see reported by a mainstream news media outlet.

While the studies cited come with a disclaimer that they raise issues that merit further research, they also echo findings in other medical studies and in the public health data.

The first studies reported on the effects of Covid-19 further substantiate that Delta is not more dangerous for young people than the Alpha variant.

Furthermore, it states that “very few children needed to be hospitalized and long periods of illness were uncommon”:
The Delta variant of the coronavirus does not appear to cause more severe disease in children than earlier forms of the virus, a UK study suggests. Earlier this year, the research team found the Alpha variant of the virus did not appear to make children sicker than the so-called wild, or original, form of the virus, first seen in China.

New data suggests that kids also do not get any sicker from Delta than they did from Alpha. Researchers compared two groups of school-age children with COVID-19: 694 infected with the Alpha variant between late December 2020 and early May 2021, and 706 infected with Delta between late May and early July.

As reported on Thursday on medRxiv ahead of peer review, children infected with Delta had slightly more symptoms. But in both groups, very few children needed to be hospitalized and long periods of illness were uncommon. In both groups, half of the children were sick for no more than five days. The researchers lacked information on differences between the groups that might have influenced the results, such as whether lockdowns were in place, and the effects of different seasons.
“Our data suggest that clinical characteristics of COVID-19 due to the Delta variant in children are broadly similar to COVID-19 due to other variants,” the researchers concluded.

The UK study backs up the findings that were earlier announced by the CDC.

“Although we are seeing more cases in children … these studies demonstrated that there was not increased disease severity in children,” CDC Director Dr. Rochelle Walensky earlier said of the Delta-driven wave in a statement. “More children have COVID-19 because there is more disease in the community.”

Reuters then doubled up on the medical reporting by pointing that “secondary immune response stronger after infection than vaccination.”
In COVID-19 survivors, important components of the body’s immune response called memory B cells continue to evolve and get stronger for at least several months, producing highly potent antibodies that can neutralize new variants of the virus, a new study has found.

By comparison, vaccine-induced memory B cells are less robust,

evolving for only a few weeks and never ‘learning’ to protect against variants, researchers reported in a paper published on Thursday in Nature.

COVID-19 vaccines do induce more antibodies than the immune system does after a coronavirus infection. But the immune system response to infection appears to outshine its response to vaccines when it comes to memory B cells. Regardless of whether antibodies are induced by infection or vaccine, their levels drop within six months in many people. But memory B cells stand ready to produce new antibodies if the body encounters the virus.

Prior to this study, there had been little data on how vaccine-induced B cells compare to infection-induced B cells.
Earlier, an Israeli study stated similar conclusions.

“This study demonstrated that natural immunity confers longer lasting and stronger protection against infection, symptomatic disease and hospitalization caused by the Delta variant of SARS-CoV-2, compared to the BNT162b2 two-dose vaccine-induced immunity,” an Israeli study’s conclusions read.

The CDC’s figures estimated that at least 120 million Americans had been infected with Covid-19 by the end of May, thus possessing superior natural immunity. That figure can be projected to be at least 150 million currently, due to the Delta variant wave and the CDC’s estimate there are at least four Covid infections for every case reported.

Governor Greg Abbott (R) on Monday banned vaccine mandates by any entity in Texas.

“The Covid vaccine should always remain voluntary and never forced,” Abbott said.

“Abbott issued an executive order stating that no entity in Texas can compel receipt of a Covid-19 vaccination by any individual, including an employee or consumer, who objects to such vaccination for any reason of personal conscience, based on a religious belief, or for medical reasons, including prior recovery from Covid-19,” the governor’s office announced.

Abbott said he will also add the issue to the Special Session agenda and rescind the executive order upon the passage of legislation.

Seattle PD May Lose 40% Of Officers Over Covid-19 Vaccine Mandate

MONDAY, OCT 11, 2021 - 06:00 PM

It was inevitable - as vaccine mandates across the country approach their deadlines, vast swaths of American workers, service members and atheletes face termination or disciplinary action for refusing to take the Covid-19 jab.

In Los Angeles, nearly 1,000 firefighters are about to sue the city over the mandate. Southwest Airlines' pilot union sued the company last week, before staffing shortages led to the cancellation of more than 2,000 flights over the weekend (and more on Monday). Meanwhile, doctors and nurses across the country have begun suing their employers.

Interestingly, after a group of officers from the Los Angeles Police Department sued over the mandate, Sheriff Alex Villanueva announced that he would not 'force anyone' to take the jab.

But not Seattle - which stands to lose 40% of its 1,000 person force for failing to get vaccinated as an Oct. 18 deadline approaches.


Interim Seattle Police Chief Adrian Diaz


"The environment has been pretty toxic and negative," one officer anonymously told Fox 13. "Not just from this whole mandate, but prior to that as well. I’m not sure this would be a good place for me to work long-term for my mental health. It has been very stressful."

Recall that this is on the heels of the city losing around 300 officers amid Black Lives Matter riots and the "defund the police" movement.

By the numbers, as of Oct. 6, 292 sworn personnel had yet to provide proof of a COVID-19 vaccination per the report, down from 354 on Tuesday. An additional 111 officers are awaiting the results of exemption requests, meaning the total number of potentially fired Seattle cops is as high as 403.



Seattle Mayor Jenny Durkan pushed back, telling officers in a Monday email: "We value each of you, and do not want to lose you as employees," adding "But the people that count on you the most are the ones that need you to get vaccinated."
As she enters the final months of her term, Durkan is faced with a dilemma: go back on her vaccine mandate or thrust the city into a public safety emergency.

Neither scenario is politically palatable.

In anticipation of the Oct. 18 deadline, Interim Seattle Police Chief Adrian Diaz advised his department to transition into a "Phase 3 Mobilization," effective Oct. 13.

According to an internal memo obtained by FOX 13 News, the change in posture will require all sworn personnel to be on standby to respond to 911 calls. That includes detectives assigned to specialty units.

Gov. Jay Inslee told FOX 13 News that agencies across the state have contingency plans to help ensure basic levels of staffing. -Fox13
Another anonymous patrol officer told Fox13 that "Losing even 50 to 75 officers in one day, the response times for the city will go up drastically," adding that if they don't approve their religious exemption, "I will continue working until the day that they fire me and that’s about all that I can do."

Federal Judge Rules Against Natural Immunity Claim Challenging COVID-19 Vaccine Mandate

MONDAY, OCT 11, 2021 - 01:25 PM
Authored by Jack Phillips via The Epoch Times,

A federal judge on Oct. 8 denied a request to block Michigan State University’s COVID-19 vaccine mandate on the basis of natural immunity.



An employee at the school, Jeanna Norris, filed a lawsuit against the mandate and asked a judge to intervene on the basis that she had already contracted COVID-19 and recovered. She presented two antibody tests showing her previous infection, and her doctors told her that she didn’t need to get the vaccine at this time.

Despite her natural immunity, Norris faces termination from the university for not complying with the school’s mandate that all students and staff get the shot unless they have a medical or religious exemption.

U.S. District Judge Paul Maloney, an appointee of former President George W. Bush, declined her lawsuit. The mandate, Maloney said, didn’t violate her fundamental rights and pointed to a 1905 Supreme Court ruling.
“This Court must apply the law from the Supreme Court: Jacobson essentially applied rational basis review and found that the vaccine mandate was rational in ‘protect[ing] the public health and public safety,’” Maloney said in his order.
“The Court cannot ignore this binding precedent.”
Some studies have shown that natural immunity afforded by a previous COVID-19 infection provides longer-lasting and stronger protection against the CCP (Chinese Communist Party) virus than the vaccines. An Israeli study published in August compared individuals who had a previous infection with those who received the Pfizer–BioNTech vaccine and said their “analysis demonstrated that natural immunity affords longer-lasting and stronger protection against infection, symptomatic disease, and hospitalization due to the Delta variant.”
“This is the largest real-world observational study comparing natural immunity, gained through previous SARS-CoV-2 infection, to vaccine-induced immunity, afforded by the BNT162b2 mRNA vaccine,” the study said.
Lawyers for Norris told The Washington Times that she’s considering legal alternatives.
“Ms. Norris courageously brought this lawsuit to vindicate the constitutional rights of individuals with naturally acquired immunity to COVID-19 who are subject to irrational vaccine mandates,” Jenin Younes, a lawyer who works for the New Civil Liberties Alliance, who represents Norris, told the paper.
“While we are disappointed by today’s order, we are committed to fighting for the rights of COVID-recovered Americans to decline a medically unnecessary vaccine without having to sacrifice their livelihoods.”
It comes just days after a federal judge in California ruled against a professor who argued that his previous infection should make him exempt from the University of California’s vaccine requirement.

Michigan State officials didn’t immediately respond to a request by The Epoch Times for comment.
 
Somewhere in one of these threads was a post that had images of a number of med packets with IVM and such. Some of them were in other languages. Any idea where that is? TIA.

Merck Asks FDA For Emergency Approval Of New COVID Drug Despite Safety Concerns

MONDAY, OCT 11, 2021 - 07:01 AM
Despite warnings from scientists that its new COVID drug could have seriously harmful side effects like causing cancers and birth defects, Merck officially submitted the drug, Molnupiravir, to the FDA for approval. If it's approved, it would be the first antiviral pill to treat the virus.

According to the NYT, the drug would revolutionize COVID treatment since it would be able to relatively inexpensively treat many more high-risk patients sick with COVID, especially those that haven't been vaccinated (the drug was only tested on patients who hadn't been vaccinated). Still, the drug will be a cash cow for Merck, since Merck is planning to charge customers 40x the cost to make the drug.


Despite the price, countries are lining up for deals with Merck even before the drug has been approved. Merck has struck deals with the US government, as well as South Korea, Singapore, Malaysia, Australia and others.

The $700 course of the pill is meant to be taken at home as four capsules twice a day for five days, constituting a total of 40 pills. Per the trial data released by Merck - which was greeted with fawning from doctors and scientists - it halved hospitalizations and deaths (though the trial was cut short by a supervisory board who claimed the data was so positive it would be unethical to withhold the drug from the placebo group). The approval could come within weeks, per the NYT.

As many as 10MM Americans would be eligible for the drug if approved, but the supply will likely be slim initially; the US has ordered 1.7MM courses already.
Fortunately, other companies are nearly ready to release data from their own antiviral pill trials. An antiviral pill being developed by Pfizer and one from Atea Pharmaceuticals teamed up with Roche will report study results in the next months.

The FDA has many decisions to make beyond just approving the drug, or not. It must decide whether pregnant women - and any other at-risk groups - will be eligible. Initially, Merck is seeking authorization for its pill to be given only to high-risk adults, including people with any of the following characteristics: over 60, have obesity, diabetes or heart disease.

Doctor Says Physicians Are Being "Hunted" For Speaking Out By Press & Medical Boards

MONDAY, OCT 11, 2021 - 03:30 AM
Authored by Paul Joseph Watson via Summit News,

Dr Robert Malone, the inventor of mRNA vaccines, says he was branded a “terrorist” by the media in Italy and warns that physicians who speak out are being “hunted via medical boards and the press.”



“I am going to speak bluntly,” tweeted Malone. “Physicians who speak out are being actively hunted via medical boards and the press. They are trying to deligitimize and pick us off one by one. This is not a conspiracy theory – this is a fact. Please wake up. This is happening globally.”

“I was labeled as a ‘terrorist’ in the Italian press when I was in Rome for the International COVID Summit. My crime? Advocating for early treatment of COVID-19 disease. I suggest that merits a bit of meditation,” he added.

1633999770797.png

Malone is one of many doctors who have been completely persecuted merely for discussing issues relating to COVID treatments and vaccine side-effects.

He has faced fierce opposition for his assertion that children shouldn’t be given COVID-19 vaccines and has also consistently highlighted concerns over links to myocarditis risk.

1633999726017.png

Those concerns are now being justified by Finland, Denmark and Sweden halting the Moderna jab for for younger males after reports of cardiovascular side effects.

1633999668503.png

Despite such concerns being regularly voiced by doctors, the Federation of State Medical Boards announced back in July that it would consider pulling medical licenses of doctors who traffic in “misinformation” about COVID.

In another stunning development, Malone’s IP address was blocked by the New England Journal of Medicine so he couldn’t read studies on their website.

The doctor said he was aware of how to get around the IP block, but called the move a “petty act.”

SHOCKING VIDEO: Marine Exposes Possible Punishment For Refusing To Follow Biden’s Mandate!

By The Scoop
Published October 11, 2021 at 7:52pm

In a video guaranteed to make your stomach turn., an anonymous young man claiming to be Marine outlines the potential consequences for servicemen and women who fail to comply with Joe Biden’s dictatorial and anti-science vaccine mandate for the military.

The Marine reads through the most recent information about the COVID vaccine mandate that is publicly available on the Marines’ website, which can be found here.

According to the Marine, “there are two available exemptions, the medical exemption and the religious exemption, both of which you can apply for.”

“Problem is,” the Marine continues, “is if your [exemption] doesn’t get approved, you’re going to be ordered to get the treatment again. And then if you refuse after having your exemption denied, you’re going to be treated just like any other refusal would be.”

At this point, the Marine reveals the dark and distressing possible implications for Marines who refuse to receive the experimental mRNA shot.

“Everyone who refuses to get this treatment will be subject to a general court-martial convening authority in which they will determine your fate.”

“A general court-martial is the highest tier of military justice that can be administered, and they have the authority to issue up to a death sentence to anybody whose case comes to a general court-martial.”

At the conclusion of the video, the courageous Marine looks directly into the camera and issues a warning to whoever he will face during his court-martial.

“Whoever ends up presiding over my case, as I have blatantly refused to get this treatment because it’s wrong, just know I will happily die before I have this injected into my body.”

Contrary to our so-called “military leaders” such as General Milley, who is an embarrassment to the United States and a traitor, this young man is a true hero who embodies what our military is supposed to stand for: FREEDOM and LIBERTY!

Thousands of Kaiser Permanente Workers Vote to Authorize Strike over Staff Shortages

PAUL BOIS11 Oct 202121

Amid the coronavirus pandemic, thousands of Kaiser Permanente healthcare workers in Southern California and Oregon have voted to authorize a strike, citing staff shortages.

With nearly 96 percent voting in favor of the strike, the United Nurses Assns. of California/Union of Health Care Professionals (UNAC/UHCP), have entered into talks with Kaiser Permanente to avert what could affect hospitals in over a dozen Southern California cities, according to the Los Angeles Times.

Concerns about safety at work have led nurses to strike across the country over the last year. In July, about 1,400 registered nurses at USC Norris Cancer Hospital in Los Angeles and Keck Hospital of USC staged a two-day strike, citing concerns such as long shifts, not enough staff, and an overreliance on contract nurses.

Nurses at San Francisco’s Chinese Hospital and Riverside Community Hospital also went on strike earlier this year.

The regional strike vote comes as negotiations are underway for a national contract between Kaiser and the Alliance of Health Care unions, which represents UNAC/UHCP as well as 20 other unions covering a total of more than 50,000 workers across the country.

Parallel to the UNAC/UHCP vote, United Steelworkers Local 7600 also authorized a strike Monday. The union represents about 7,000 healthcare workers, including housekeeping attendants, customer service representatives, and pharmacy technicians at Kaiser Permanente locations across Southern California.

Kaiser facilities in Anaheim, Bakersfield, Baldwin Park, Downey, Fontana, Irvine, Los Angeles, Ontario, Panorama City, Riverside, San Diego, West Los Angeles, and other cities would all be affected by the proposed strike.

UNAC/UHCP represents over 21,000 nurses, pharmacists, midwives, and physical therapists associated with Kaiser in Southern California. Union President Denise Duncan told the Times that staffing and retention are at the heart of the current conflict, adding that Kaiser has done little to alleviate the situation for healthcare workers that have been pushed beyond their limits.

Duncan expressed hope that the two sides can come to an agreement before the month’s end.

Arlene Peasnall, senior vice president of human resources at Kaiser Permanente, said that the company will continue to negotiate a proper contract while urging employees to not “walk away from the patients who need them.”

Beyond Southern California, The Oregonian reported on Monday that nearly “3,400 nurses and other workers at Kaiser Permanente in Oregon and southwest Washington have voted 96% in favor of authorizing a strike,” which comes as the company will surely lose staff over its vaccine mandate:
The timing of the strike comes at a difficult time for Kaiser and its employees. They are dealing with an unprecedented pandemic while facing a nationwide shortage of nurses. It is trying to cope with an unending caseload of COVID employees with frontline workers that are exhausted and disheartened.

And now, Kaiser faces the vaccine mandate, which almost certainly will lead to the departure of some of its employees. The health system has placed about 190 local employees on administrative leave, or about 1.5% of the active workforce, according to Mike Foley, a regional spokesman. They were placed on leave because they weren’t vaccinated and had not sought an exemption.
Arlene Peasnall said that Kaiser’s 52 facilities in Oregon will rely on physicians and “contingency” employees if the strike comes to fruition.

“Our priority is to continue to provide our members with high quality, safe care,” she said. “We are extremely grateful for our frontline health care employees, whose commitment to providing care and service throughout the pandemic has been nothing short of inspiring.”

From another forum:

This begs the question:

1) How many healthy people are getting strokes from the vaccine

2) Is it equal across all of the vaccines. It seems to be related to spike itself;
- Possibly Moderna a greater risk due to higher mRNA dose
- J&J is not naked mRNA but housed inside adenovirus; we know ITP/TTP is a risk for J&J already

3) How long is their an increased risk.
- Right now we presume it would be increased for 2 - 4 weeks;
- is there a lifetime increase in risk, only while spike is high

4) How do we mitigate the risk:
- I.e. no flying for 4 weeks after getting the vaccine?

German Court Rules YouTube Cannot Suspend Accounts for Sharing Covid ‘Misinformation’

By J.D. Rucker • Oct. 11, 2021

American politicians and judges, pay attention. A German court has ruled that YouTube cannot arbitrarily suspend accounts that express concerns over Covid-related topics ranging from lockdowns to face masks to vaccines.

1634018742651.png

YouTube has taken their already-draconian censorship to much higher levels in recent weeks, handing out suspensions and bans to individual creators and news outlets like candy on Halloween. Most recently, YouTube suspended the German accounts for Russian news outlets RT over Covid ‘misinformation’, prompting Moscow to threaten a complete ban of the Google-owned video property.

American politicians, mostly Republicans, have been talking about ending censorship and holding Big Tech companies accountable for using their powers to suppress content based on their far-left political bias. Thus far, nothing has been done in DC and only a handful of states have made real attempts to pass legislation stopping censorship.

Covid-19 “misinformation” in the eyes of Big Tech is anything that goes against the narrative handed down by the powers-that-be. Anything that does not promote universal vaccinations and total government control is taboo on sites like YouTube, Facebook, and Twitter.

It would be ironic if Germany leads the way for governments to start pushing back against Big Tech tyranny. As I said before, American politicians and judges need to pay attention.

Dutch Group Presents Evidence of Vaccine Dangers at the International Criminal Court in The Hague
Dutch Group Presents Evidence of Vaccine Dangers at the International Criminal Court in The Hague
by SCOTT BOYD

October 11, 2021

In normal times, news that massive amounts of evidence of Covid-19 vaccine dangers was presented at the International Criminal Court in The Hague would be major news covered worldwide. These aren’t normal times, so the event was completely ignored by pretty much every major media outlet. As far as they’re concerned, the vaccines are “safe and effective” because they’ve all been instructed by the powers-that-be to declare that the vaccines are “safe and effective.”

Our readers know they’re not, but the message is having challenges reaching the masses. The powers-that-be have complete control over mainstream media, Big Tech, academia, and most governments. It should come as a shock to no one that pressure is being applied to keep any news that runs counter to their narrative from coming to light. We will continue to highlight as much of this news as we can, including this article from Free West Media:

New evidence showing harmfulness of Corona vaccinations presented to International Criminal Court
An independent Dutch Parliamentary Commission of Inquiry set up in 2020, has new evidence it presented to the International Criminal Court in The Hague about the harmfulness of the Corona vaccinations.

The BPOC 2020 is a committee set up by citizens and is completely separate from government, business and politics. The committee was set up by Pieter Kuit and his daughter Jade Kuit.

“It comes from a sense of justice. People have needlessly lost their freedoms. But everything the government says is widely reported in the media. You can hardly find any other information.” Kuit says he receives about 600 to 700 e-mails and 80 telephone calls a day from people who have the same concerns about the government’s lack of transparency. According to Kuit, the government “cannot provide any scientific substantiation”.

The committee has examined the proportionality of the policy and measures with regard to Covid-19 and also investigates whether the government is complying with the law. To this end, the committee hears experts such as doctors, scientists, lawyers and professors, who focus on the following question:
“Why have restrictive measures been imposed in our country since March 15, 2020 due to Covid19, are these measures effective and are the measures imposed in proportion to the disease caused by the SARS-CoV-2 virus?”

The interviews with experts are public, filmed and streamed. A written report is made of the information sessions. Interim reports and ultimately a final report with findings and conclusions are drawn up which are presented to the House of Representatives and all relevant social authorities such as youth care, trade unions and the National Ombudsman.

Right of Parliamentary Inquiry
The House of Representatives can independently conduct research into policy and projects and have that research carried out by MPs. Several instruments can be used for this. The most efficient means is research based on the Parliamentary Inquiry Act. Since 2016, the House of Representatives has also been able to hold a parliamentary inquiry.

Thus a large number of views from experts, doctors, virologists, mathematicians, economists, but also entrepreneurs have been videotaped without any editing and live-streamed on Facebook as befits a transparent parliamentary democracy.

Covid vaccines are not safe
The experts consulted by the BPOC2020 believe that the vaccines are not safe for use. This is also apparent from the reports received by the Committee’s Vaccination Reporting Center.

Until October 8, 2204 deaths and 2835 cases of serious injury after the Corona vaccine have been registered by the vaccine adverse reaction hotline. The government’s database on adverse events Lareb, however refuses to process these reports.

The Rutte administration does not wish to take note of the reports
Cases of serious health damage, leukemia in young people, miscarriages, myocarditis and thrombosis with thrombocytopenia syndrome have been noted. The BPOC2020 is convinced that the Dutch government is aware of the deaths and serious cases of health damage that have occurred and still occur daily after vaccination.

However, the government does not wish to take cognizance of the reports. Lareb is also silent about the investigation into the reports that have been received at the center. This has been the reason for the Committee to hand over all its evidence regarding the deaths and serious vaccine injuries reported, to the International Criminal Court for investigation.

The BPOC2020 also handed over the interview reports of its visit to the Ministry of Health and visit to the Lareb to the ICC. It is not yet clear what will happen to the evidence.

If Government Won’t Help, We Must Stand For Ourselves
Reading news like this can be both encouraging and frustrating. It’s good that the truth is being presented to government officials, but what good will it do?

Considering the aforementioned control the powers-that-be have over government, is there any amount of evidence that can force them to stop doing the bidding of the globalists?

This is where we come in. For things to change, we need the people of the world to start demanding action based on the truth, not the agenda being applied against us. Even government is beholden to the people when enough are aware and willing to stand up against the globalists. We’re in uncharted territory; there has never been such a concerted effort to mislead all the people of the world.

But the globalists are also experiencing something new, which should give us hope. Have they overplayed their hand?

As of now, it appears their plans are working. But every day, more people are coming into the awareness that the narratives being fed to them by governments and their proxies are loaded with half-truths and outright lies. If there’s still a chance of winning, this is how it will be done. We need to reach critical mass of people who are aware of the truth and willing to join us in bringing it forth.

What BPOC 2020 and many other groups are doing is important work. It may not break through the shields that governments have put up, but if it reaches some who will then be prompted to join the fight, their efforts are worthwhile.

New study finds aspirin can significantly cut COVID risks — and even death

A new study finds that simple, over-the-counter aspirin may be able to protect COVID-19 patients from extreme risk, including the need for mechanical ventilation, the Jerusalem Post reported.

What are the details?
New research from George Washington University has determined that treating COVID patients with aspirin reduced the risk of severe illness by nearly half.

The report noted that an aspirin regimen in more than 400 COVID-19 patients in hospitals across the United States cut the need for ventilation by 44%, slashed ICU admission by 43%, and reduced overall in-hospital mortality rates by 47%.

Dr. Jonathan Chow, one of the study's researchers, said, "As we learned about the connection between blood clots and COVID-19, we knew that aspirin — used to prevent stroke and heart attack — could be important for COVID-19 patients.

Our research found an association between low-dose aspirin and decreased severity of COVID-19 and death."

A low-dose aspirin regimen has long been touted as potentially lifesaving for people at risk of heart attack or stroke or who are afflicted by blood clotting issues.

Chow added, "Aspirin is low-cost, easily accessible, and millions are already using it to treat their health conditions. Finding this association is a huge win for those looking to reduce risk from some of the most devastating effects of COVID-19."

What else?
This isn't the only study professing the possible benefits of aspirin in COVID patients. Earlier in October, Medical Express reported that researchers from the University of Minnesota and Basel University in Switzerland came to the same conclusion.

The researchers' findings were published in Lancet's Open Access eClinical Medicine and revealed that patients on blood thinners before getting COVID were admitted less often to the hospital despite being older and having more chronic medical conditions than their peers. The findings also revealed that blood thinners — whether started before or after COVID-19 infection — reduced death by nearly half.

Lead author Sameh Hozayen said, "We know that COVID-19 causes blood clots that can kill patients. But, do blood thinners save lives in COVID-19? Blood thinners are medications prescribed to prevent blood clots in patients with a prior blood clot in their lungs or legs. They also prevent blood clots in the brain secondary to abnormal heart rhythms, like atrial fibrillation. Blood thinners are the standard of treatment in these diseases, which is why we looked at data to see if it impacted hospitalizations related to COVID-19."

"We already know that overwhelmed hospitals have a higher risk for death among their patients, so reducing hospitalization may have a positive impact during a COVID-19 surge," Hozayen added.

"Unfortunately, about half of patients who are being prescribed blood thinners for blood clots in their legs, lungs, abnormal heart rhythms or other reasons, do not take them," Hozayen continued. "By increasing adherence for people already prescribed blood thinners, we can potentially reduce the bad effects of COVID-19.

German Court Rules YouTube Cannot Suspend Accounts for Sharing Covid ‘Misinformation’

By J.D. Rucker • Oct. 11, 2021

American politicians and judges, pay attention. A German court has ruled that YouTube cannot arbitrarily suspend accounts that express concerns over Covid-related topics ranging from lockdowns to face masks to vaccines.

View attachment 295703

YouTube has taken their already-draconian censorship to much higher levels in recent weeks, handing out suspensions and bans to individual creators and news outlets like candy on Halloween. Most recently, YouTube suspended the German accounts for Russian news outlets RT over Covid ‘misinformation’, prompting Moscow to threaten a complete ban of the Google-owned video property.

American politicians, mostly Republicans, have been talking about ending censorship and holding Big Tech companies accountable for using their powers to suppress content based on their far-left political bias. Thus far, nothing has been done in DC and only a handful of states have made real attempts to pass legislation stopping censorship.

Covid-19 “misinformation” in the eyes of Big Tech is anything that goes against the narrative handed down by the powers-that-be. Anything that does not promote universal vaccinations and total government control is taboo on sites like YouTube, Facebook, and Twitter.

It would be ironic if Germany leads the way for governments to start pushing back against Big Tech tyranny. As I said before, American politicians and judges need to pay attention.

You KNOW you are ****ed when Germany is the protector of freedom of speech...

‘It’s Growing by Tens of Thousands” – Pilot Behind Viral Anti-Vax-Pro-Freedom Video Says THOUSANDS Are Joining the US Freedom Flyers Org Every Day (VIDEO)

By Jim Hoft
Published October 12, 2021 at 7:20am
1634064652730.png

Over the weekend a brave US veteran pilot who uses the TikTok account @cellsaucenutrition posted a TikTok video arguing his airline’s vaccine mandate amounts to an ultimatum between “feeding his family” and freedom of choice.”

The pilot, who is a leader of the US Freedom Flyers organization says, “I’ve been an airline pilot for 18 years and now I’m facing an ultimatum… I’m being told that in order to continue my career as an airline pilot, I must be vaccinated.”

On Monday night the pilot, whose first name is Shawn, went on with Rob Schmitt on Newsmax.

Shawn told Rob Schmitt he does not believe his airline has the right to fire him over this vaccine and he is willing to speak up about it, adding, “I think my job is a small sacrifice to pay for all of the Americans who deserve their medical freedom.”

Shawn also said he is not alone and the numbers are growing. “It’s growing by tens of thousands. I mean thousands every day where the number is tens of thousands. Honestly its growing so fast now we can’t even keep track. I think a lot of people were afraid to speak out. They didn’t know what to do. They’re worried about possible backlash, possible termination from their jobs or their careers, and everyone has to draw a line in the sand. And after speaking to airline pilots, they’re emotionally distressed. So, I had to speak out for everyone because we’re all a little bit afraid.”

BIDEN’S SO-CALLED VACCINE MANDATE That Jeopardizes Millions of Jobs Doesn’t Exist…”It’s All A Mirage”

By Patty McMurray
Published October 12, 2021 at 11:03am

Americans against the COVID jab are panicking, as the tyrannical Biden regime demands employers with 100 or more employees threaten their workers with taking away their ability to pay their mortgage or put food on their table unless they submit to the jab.

covid-jab-walgreens-740x418.jpg


100 Percent Fed Up reports – There’s only one problem with the Biden regime’s so-called mandate—it’s nothing more than a press release delivered by a blustering, senile figurehead bolstered by the Democrat Party’s dishonest mainstream media.

biden-shot.jpg


There’s been no official position on employers firing workers over refusal to get the COVID jab.

Congress hasn’t voted on the mandate.

Biden hasn’t signed any executive orders demanding that hard-working Americans be fired if they resist the jab.

Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene tweeted about the scam, calling Biden a “dictator” and reminding everyone that there is no federal law mandating the vaccines. She wrote, “We never voted on it because it does not exist.” She added, ” There is also no rule under OSHA that allows for companies to be fined for not mandating vaccines.”

View: https://twitter.com/mtgreenee/status/1447748310417264644?s=20

Scientist and author James Lyons- Weiler tweeted about the OSHA final rule:
Word to the wise: The OSHA Final Rule has not been entered in the Federal Register. If you are an employer and you are enforcing vaccine or test mandates, you’re wide open to lawsuits for damages, lost wages, and psychological distress. It’s a Guidance, meaning it’s non-binding.

1634067771608.png

Joy Pullman of The Federalist wrote about the scam on October 7- Yes, we’ve heard all about Joe Biden’s alleged vaccine mandate for private companies employing 100 or more people. It was all over the news even before he announced it on September 9. His announcement has jeopardized the employment of millions of Americans and increased worker shortages in critical domains such as health care.

There’s only one problem. It’s all a mirage. Biden’s so-called vaccine mandate doesn’t exist — at least, not yet. So far, all we have is his press conference and other such made-for-media huff-puffing. No such rule even claiming to be legally binding has been issued yet.

That’s why nearly two dozen Republican attorneys general who have publicly voiced their opposition to the clearly unconstitutional and illegal mandate haven’t yet filed suit against it, the Office of the Indiana Attorney General confirmed for me. There is no mandate to haul into court. And that may be part of the plan.

According to several sources, so far, it appears no such mandate has been sent to the White House’s Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs yet for approval. The White House, the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA), and the Department of Labor haven’t released any official guidance for the alleged mandate. There is no executive order. There’s nothing but press statements.

Despite what you may have been falsely led to believe by the media fantasy projection machine, press statements have exactly zero legal authority.

“There is nothing there yet that gives employers any mandate,” Stephanie McFarland, spokeswoman for the Indiana Occupational Safety and Health Administration, told me on Oct. 6. “The president made an announcement on this asking OSHA to do it, but we’ve not yet seen anything come from it yet,” she also said.

To impose the public perception of a mandate, the Biden administration is following an unusual rule-making process it also employed earlier this year, called an emergency temporary standard (ETS). The spring ETS rule took nearly six months to issue. Meanwhile, companies are telling reporters their vaccine mandates will have at the latest December deadlines. (For those who can’t calendar, that’s four months after Biden’s non-existent mandate was proclaimed.

According to OSHA, an ETS takes up to six months to go into effect after the initial mandate is issued in the Federal Register — which, again, for the proclaimed 100-employee mandate hasn’t happened yet.)
The National Law Review reports – On September 9, 2021, US President Joe Biden announced a multipronged plan to increase the number of Americans who are vaccinated for COVID-19. In the plan, titled “Path Out of the Pandemic: President Biden’s COVID-19 Action Plan,” the Biden administration provides for multiple regulatory and executive order-based means to encourage or require vaccination in various workplace settings.

Specifically, some form of vaccine mandate will apply for employers with 100 or more employees; for most Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) regulated workplace settings; and for some federal contractors, as well as all federal executive branch workers.

OSHA will develop a rule (known as an emergency temporary standard, or ETS) that will require all employers with at least 100 employees to ensure that each member of the workforce is either fully vaccinated or, for those who are not fully vaccinated, require such workers to produce a negative COVID-19 test result on at least a weekly basis before coming to work. As announced, it appears that the impending OSHA ETS will permit employers of 100 or more employees to present an option to all workers to either vaccinate or test (workers would be able to select either option).

Employers should note that in June 2021, OSHA issued a different ETS imposing various COVID-related requirements on solely healthcare industry employers. The anticipated ETS requiring vaccination or testing has not yet been released as of the time of this article. Employers should exercise caution when researching requirements under “the OSHA ETS” to avoid referencing inapplicable regulations.
So, if there is NO law or executive order, why are workers being threatened? Have small businesses in America with 100 or more workers been duped into forcing their employees to accept a COVID jab against their will? Are America’s corporations so ignorant that they didn’t even question the validity of the so-called mandate/press release? Or are American corporations so tied to federal funding from the same hard-working taxpayers they’re threatening that they are simply going along with the Biden scam to keep COVID relief money flowing into their coffers?

Where’s the mandate for illegal aliens to get a COVID jab? Or is it the Biden regime only interested in targeting hard-working American citizens?

Southwest Airlines to Comply with Biden Vaccine ‘Mandate’ Over Texas Ban as Flight Cancelations Continue

By Cristina Laila
Published October 12, 2021 at 11:09am

southwest-730505_1920.jpg

Southwest Airlines on Tuesday announced it will comply with Joe Biden’s Covid vaccine mandate over Governor Greg Abbott’s ban.

“According to the president’s executive order, federal action supersedes any state mandate or law, and we would be expected to comply with the president’s order to remain compliant as a federal contractor,” Dallas-based airliner said in an emailed statement to Bloomberg.

Texas Governor Gregg Abbott on Monday banned vaccine mandates by any entity in Texas.

“The Covid vaccine should always remain voluntary and never forced,” Abbott said.

“In another instance of federal overreach, the Biden Administration is now bullying many private entities into imposing COVID-19 vaccine mandates, causing workforce disruptions that threaten Texas’ continued recovery from the COVID-19 disaster,” Abbott said in an executive order.

Southwest Airlines said they will comply with Biden’s mandate as pilots fight Covid tyranny.

1634068132766.png1634068165294.png
Nearly 2,000 Southwest flights were canceled over the weekend and the cancelations continued into Monday and Tuesday.

Southwest claimed the flights were canceled due to bad weather in Florida and air traffic control issues although their competitors in the region have reported far less cancelations.

Southwest Airlines CEO Gary Kelly on Tuesday insisted the cancelations have nothing to do with workers boycotting the vaccine mandate.

The Southwest Airlines Pilots Association is fighting the tyranny in court.

“The new vaccine mandate unlawfully imposes new conditions of employment and the new policy threatens termination of any pilot not fully vaccinated by December 8, 2021,” the legal filing said. “Southwest Airlines’ additional new and unilateral modification of the parties’ collective bargaining agreement is in clear violation of the RLA.”

an epidemic of the vaccinated
a look at the UK data

gatopal™ don wolt has been building a great series chart based on the UK vaccine surveillance reports. and it’s getting more and more striking by the week.

Image

the covid infection rates among the vaccinated now exceed the unvaxxed in every age group over 30. you can grab raw data HERE.

this has CLEARLY become an epidemic of the vaccinated, not the unvaccinated.

it’s also clearly deteriorating by the week with spread shifting younger. (under 18 is mostly unvaxxed and school kids are being tested at outlandish levels esp if not vaccinated. the same spills into colleges to these two brackets have some pretty iffy data bias artifacts in them as a result. it’s testdemic with oversensitive PCR, not a pandemic of kids)

we can see just how bad it’s getting if we look at the per 100k data. this is from the previous report. i added the VE in red.



this is the most recent report. (week 40) note that VE is collapsing in most of these age groups.



it’s getting worse by the week. also note: these 2 reports have 3 weeks of overlap, so something REALLY significant must be going on at the margin.

and this is the rigged counting of just counting the “fully vaxxed” (dose 2 plus 14 days or more) and ignoring the known high vulnerability period in the weeks following dose 1. this is not a valid methodology. it’s designed to occlude, not to reveal. i spoke on this in detail HERE. saying “you’ll be safe if you get to the bunker” and not counting the risk of running to it is not a great way to make life choices…

and, as can be seen here, it’s having a profound effect on this data in the lower age brackets.

in under 18’s, the single dosed group is almost 18X the case count of the “fully vaccinated.” add that to the overall vaccinated cases and they rise by 1785%. the data is insufficient to combine this and normalize for cases per 100k, but with a magnitude this large and 12-15 having ~10% and under 12’s zero vaxx rate, if we add this to “vaxxed” it could easily move it to parity or beyond with unvaxxed in under 18’s.

the same may apply in the 18-29’s where adding in single dosed cases would up overall cases by 62%. it’s an 18% rise in 30-39 and becomes less prominent in older groups.

all groups have a “donut hole” in the data from dose 2 until 2 weeks post dose 2. it’s simply not accounted for anywhere that i can see. (and the UK provides better data on this than most)

so, all in all we see a vaccine that is non-sterilizing. it’s certainly not stopping infection and may well be spreading it. cohort bias looks unable to explain a variance this large or and especially, the widening of this variance.

the fact that it keeps getting worse is not consistent with the primary issue being initial bias in groups but IS consistent with catalyzed spread perhaps from ADE (antibody dependent enhancement) where antibodies wind up acting as passkeys for a virus to enter cells or the fetchingly biblically named OAS (original antigenic sin) whereby preferential training to one antibody response leads to its use against new variants of a pathogen and thereby prevents adaptation to more effective modalities.

note that these two are by no means mutually exclusive and are actually strongly synergistic.

this is an area that should, based on this data, be an all hands on deck investigation right now.

it’s clear the vaccines not performing as hoped/expected. they got sold as “the only way to reach herd immunity.” instead they may well be putting it further out of reach by amplifying spread (and likely severity as well) because that’s what leaky vaccines do and we’re seeing it in delta CFR.



seeing CFR trend up is a serious violation of expectation and a big change in what we saw with prior variants. this is like seeing water flow uphill. it can happen, but when it does, it’s due to some exogenous force. it’s not typical behavior.

it means we need to have a hard look at external drivers like vaccines.
this policy of denying acquired natural immunity and claiming only vaccines can generate herd immunity was a bad enough foray into pseudoscience and crony capitalism.



but to keep up this pretense when it’s clear these vaccines do not stop spread and are likely a spread accelerant is simply unconscionable.

it’s time to get to the bottom of this.

nobody wants this to be the case, but if we ARE making it worse, we need to know and sooner is A LOT better than later.

CLUSTER**** NATION – BLOGOctober 11, 2021
James Kunstler

The Waiting Is The Hardest Part

Ol’ Tom Petty sure got that right: the waiting is the hardest part. The lines are drawn: vaxed on one side and unvaxed on the other. Can it be that the unvaxed know rather specifically what the dangers of the vax actually are? That they are making a rational decision, taking a stand, against a toxic hacking of their immune systems and systemic damage to their organs? It’s not that hard to understand, after all. Those spike proteins can kill you, if not right away, then steadily, steadily over the weeks and months. So, now we’re left to wait as the light wanes and we slide into fretful darkness.

And can it be that the vaxed are so clue-deprived that they have not seen the news? Sure, information was suppressed pretty tightly for two years since this madness started, but the news media, turns out, is as leaky as the mRNA vaccines. If you were even moderately aware, you could discover that the vaxes create havoc in your bloodstream. It’s right ‘out there,’ documented and for real. But now, if you vaxed up, and you happened to snag a clue since then, you have a powerful incentive for denying that you might have made a mistake and acquired a serious problem. And you have a support group of about half the nation to reinforce that denial and even demonize those unvaxed who keep hectoring you with conspiracy theories. Hard to fathom how much you hate them for it.

It looks like all of Hollywood’s zombie dreams will be coming true: civil war between the walking dead and the rest of us, who, let’s face it, cannot be faulted for getting the spooky feeling that we are being hunted down now. It’s kind of serious when you are deprived of your income, and also of access to all the common activities of daily life. Yet just this weekend we see what could be the opening skirmish, the Bull Run, of this new civil war: the “sick-out” of Southwest Airlines pilots and other employees whom the company is attempting to coerce into vaxing. These Southwest Airlines rebels threw quite a spanner in the works.

Will the country even understand what happened? Will other vax-averse cohorts of sore-beset employees at other companies follow? Wait….

Meanwhile, we have the arrival on-the-scene of another joker: Merck’s new anti-Covid-19 drug molnupiravir, said to reduce the risk of hospitalization and death from Covid by 50 percent. Merck and its partner, Ridgeback Biotherapeutics, have applied for an emergency use authorization (EUA) from the FDA for this new drug, the same legal loophole that Pfizer and Moderna got for their mRNA vaxes. “Joe Biden” promised to spend $1.2 billion procuring a big batch of the new drug, so bringing it on must be a done deal.

The catch is, molnupiravir is in the same order of nucleoside analogue drugs as remdesivir, a clinically-proven failure in the treatment of Covid 19. The stuff killed patients left and right. Molnupiravir’s mutagenic mechanism is supposed to mess with the RNA of Covid-19 viruses, incrementally disabling them and killing them off. The trouble is, mutagenic drugs are notorious for broad spectrum action, so molnupiravir might do the same thing to the various cells in your body, too:
instant cancer. I guess we’ll have to stand-by and see how that works out. It pays to remember, though, that the EUA didn’t work out so well for the Covid-19 vaccines, did it? The waiting is the hardest part.

Molnupiravir was shoved out onstage after two years of the public health authorities (Drs. Fauci, Collins, et al.) and the corporate news media casting curses on the existing suite of cheap drugs that proved clinically effective in the early treatment of Covid-19, namely ivermectin (a.k.a. “horse paste”), hydroxychloroquine, fluvoxamine, prednisone, etc. If you were paranoid, you might suspect that something was up in this attempt to roadblock cheap, safe, and effective treatments in favor of untested novelties that would just happen to be another multibillion-dollar boon for drug companies.



The thundering question, of course, is: who exactly are the authorities behind all this Covid-19 mischief? I’d suggest if you find out who installed “Joe Biden” in the White House, and who is running him, you’d have a few clues. It kind of looks like they intend to kill a lot of people. Pretty soon we’ll have a fair idea of whether it worked or not as the micro blood clots accumulate in 100-million-odd human lab-rats here in America and many more millions around the world.

They’ve also poured enough sand into the engines of the global economy to put it out of business — and, of course, the US economy leads all that. No heat for you this winter as you sit around waiting to clot up and check out. The unvaxed are watching this go down, goggling in horror at the fantastic credulousness of the doomed Woke, the legions of Zombies who foolishly allied themselves with forces of genuine evil. They’ve been on their knees worshipping Dr. Fauci, the FBI, the CIA, “Joe Biden,” and Rachel Maddow and everybody else brandishing cattle-prods of coercion and propaganda at them. They followed their marching orders obediently, like good little boys and girls, and took their shots. The lines are drawn. Pushing the unvaxed further will avail nothing (except now maybe a mighty push back). Mulder was right: the truth is out there. Wait for it. (Yes, the waiting is the hardest part.)

On Oct. 8, 2021, Southwest Airlines Pilots Association (SWAPA) filed a motion for temporary and preliminary injunctive relief in its ongoing lawsuit with Southwest Airlines, Co., initially filed on Aug. 30, 2021. The original complaint asserts the airlines are in violation of the Railway Labor Act (RLA), among other things, Sec. 6, which requires the parties to maintain “status quo” until a new agreement is reached. The lawsuit maintains that the carrier can not alter pay rates, rules, and working conditions until a new agreement is reached. Friday’s filing, seeking an immediate hearing, declares:

“Most recently, on Oct. 4, 2021, Southwest Airlines unilaterally rolled out a new and non-negotiated COVID vaccine mandate for all employees, including SWAPA. The new vaccine mandate unlawfully imposes new conditions of employment, and the new policy threatens termination of any pilot not fully vaccinated by Dec. 8, 2021. Southwest Airlines’ additional new and unilateral modifications of the parties’ collective bargaining agreement is in clear violation of the RLA.”

The original Aug. 30 complaint, which was amended on Oct. 6, 2021, emphasizes that the two parties—SWAPA and Southwest Airlines—currently have a “major dispute” within the meaning of the RLA and related case law and talks to improve the relevant collective bargaining agreement (CBA). More specifically, the claim states that during the COVID-19 pandemic, Southwest Airlines issued and implemented an “Infectious Disease Control Policy” that unquestionably altered Pilots’ working conditions, rules, and pay rates.

The initial claim explains the CBA (which covered the period from Sept. 1, 2012, through Aug. 31, 2020) instructs that either party may give written notice of its desire to modify the Agreement at least sixty days before Mar. 1 or each year beginning Mar. 1, 2020. Following those guidelines, SWAPA served its notice to Southwest Airlines on Nov. 1, 2019, and the parties met on Jan. 9, 2020, to begin immediate negotiations.

SWAPA insists that from the beginning of the negotiations, Southwest Airlines “disregarded its obligations under the RLA to maintain status quo and its duty to engage in good faith bargaining.” Numerous times, the lawsuit alleges, SWAPA has had to send written demands to Southwest Airlines to cease its one-sided actions to change the CBA while still negotiating Sec. 6. In a Jan. 10, 2020 letter, SWAPA asserts that under the guise of a “Check Airmen scheduling test,” the Airlines attempted to change and negotiate new working rules and pay changes directly with check airmen.

The allegations of unilateral changes to the CBA advanced by Southwest during the pandemic—absent of bargaining with SWAPA—continued throughout 2020.

They include implementing an Emergency Time Off (ETO) program followed by an extended ETO (ExTO) program. The program gave the Pilots the option not to fly and not be paid in violation of the terms and conditions of the CBA. The parties eventually reached a memorandum of understanding (MOU) on the ETO but not on the ExTO. SWAPA insists that Southwest’s “anti-union sentiment against SWAPA was high (and continues to be high).” Consistently, SWAPA argues:

“Defendant Southwest Airlines further availed itself of force majeure rights by issuing an emergency pandemic policy that it is using to improperly and illegally trump the CBA.”

On Oct. 6, 2021, two days before filing its motion for temporary and preliminary injunctive relief, SWAPA filed an amended complaint to include Southwest Airline’s Sept. 15, 2021, implementation of its “Vaccine Participation Pay Program” (VPPP)—yet another policy that changed the Pilots working conditions, rules, and pay. The new program, which was not bargained for with the Union, incentivized Pilots with additional pay for receiving the COVID-19 vaccine and also “threatened to take away Pilots’ pay if they are not vaccinated by a deadline.” The lawsuit states:

“By unilaterally implementing this policy, Defendant Southwest Airlines was, in essence, negotiating directly with the Union’s membership to change its working conditions, rules, and pay.”

Immediately upon learning of Southwest Management’s plan to roll out its unilateral VPPP, on Sept. 14, 2021, Captain Casey Murray, SWAPA President, sent a cease and desist letter to Captain Bob Waltz, Southwest Airlines VP of Flight Operations. The letter demanded confirmation that the program did not apply to Pilots, which would be illegal under the RLA. In response, the suit describes that the Airlines instead proceeded to present the Management’s new unilateral pay policy as if it had the authority to implement it unilaterally.

SWAPA asserts that throughout the pandemic, its Pilots have continued to carry out their work duties. They allege that as soon as the pandemic hit, Southwest Airlines “began stockpiling cash from all available sources,” including the Payroll Support Program (PSP). The lawsuit, which points out that the Airlines made an “enterprise decision” to seek a 10% pay cut from unionized workers, including Pilots, claims:

“Defendant Southwest Airlines went from having a cash balance of $4.1B in 2019 to over $24B during the pandemic. Despite being cash positive, Defendant Southwest Airlines took advantage of the COVID-19 pandemic.”

While the suit describes additional actions that transpired without effectively bargaining with SWAPA, it outlines that the most recent unilateral action by Southwest Airlines occurred on Friday afternoon, Oct. 1, 2021. According to SWAPA, on that day, without providing specific details, the Airlines “gave SWAPA a ‘heads up’ that it planned to roll out a vaccine mandate.”

Subsequently—despite fierce objections from Casey Murray and his assurance of SWAPA’S intent to seek injunctive relief to stop the airlines from taking “unbargained-for rights”—on Oct. 4, 2021, Southwest Airlines announced its unilateral vaccine mandate. The order made the experimental COVID-19 jab a condition of employment for Pilots and threatened termination for those who refused the shot.

Later that same afternoon, on Oct. 4, 2021, Executive VP of Southwest Daily Operations Alan Kasher joined a SWAPA Board of Director’s meeting to field questions and concerns of Board members. The discussion highlighted that Southwest’s largest competitors (Delta, United, and American) had collectively bargained with their respective labor unions at the onset of the pandemic. As a result, by May 2020, they had negotiated COVID-related agreements in advance of changing working conditions, rules, and pay of their unionized workforce. The plaintiffs allege that “When asked point-blank, Captain Kasher could only admit that Southwest Airlines was wrong in failing to collectively bargain.

The amended complaint, in which SWAPA demands a jury trial, has two counts. Count I, “Failure to Maintain the Status Quo During the Ongoing ‘Major’ Dispute,” and Count II, “Failure to Exert Every Reasonable Effort to Reach Agreement.”

Last Friday’s motion asks the court to immediately intervene to stop Southwest Airlines from imposing or enforcing its unilateral new pay rates, rules, and working conditions related to Southwest Airlines Pilots. Instead, it asks the court to order Southwest Airlines to immediately revert back to the status quo ante under the existing bargain agreement pending completion of the RLA’s “major” dispute resolution procedures regarding Southwest Management’s implementation of:
  1. the Infectious Disease Control Policy
  2. the Emergency Extended Time Off (ExTO) Program
  3. the COVID quarantine policies
  4. the Vaccine Participation Pay Program (VPPP)
  5. the Flight Crew Training Instructors Program
  6. the mandatory COVID vaccine policy

Since Friday afternoon, Dallas-based Southwest Airlines has canceled over 2,000 flights. Management blamed the cancellations on a mixture of air traffic control issues, bad weather, and military flight maneuvers in Florida. Both the airlines and SWAPA insist that crew members did not call out sick to protest vaccine mandates and bring a halt to the busy holiday weekend.

Still, according to The Dallas Morning News, many airline Unions have opposed the COVID-19 vaccine mandates, especially pilots concerned that health side-effects may put their commercial airline pilot license at risk.
