    So this is the ASMR I've been hearing so much about? Very soothing.

    I got my Covid booster last week. Moderna. All my previous shots were Pfizer.

    The video below tells the wildest story related to covid I have ever heard. It starts with a Chinese owned illegal biolab in CA. Some of the story must be true, but I am not sure how much is true, anyone know? UP has reported the Chinese owner of the biolab was arrested last week.

    Why must some be true?

    Epoch Times is a far right media group affiliated with Falun Gong movement. Their journalistic credibility is about nil.

    Someday, suprise us by leaving out at least some of the hate and poison in your heart for anyone that has a different opinion than yours.

    The AG for the dept of Justice report linked below supports some of the info in the video as true.

    Oh my.

    The arrest was for misbranded medical devices, not creating Covid.

    Some day leave out personal insults.

    Mystery wave of pneumonia hits AMERICA: Ohio county records 142 child cases of 'white lung syndrome' which it says 'meets the definition of an outbreak' - as China and Europe grapple with crises
    An 'extremely high' number of children are being diagnosed with pneumonia in Ohio — which is now the first US state to report an outbreak like the one in China.

    Health officials in Warren County, 30 miles north of Cincinnati, said there have been 142 pediatric cases of the condition — dubbed 'white lung syndrome' — since August.

    'Not only is this above the county average, it also meets the Ohio Department of Health definition of an outbreak,' the county's health department said Wednesday.

    The spread of cases has raised fears that an American outbreak of the infection that has overwhelmed hospitals China could hit this winter. Several European countries are battling similar crises.

    In the US, doctors in western Massachusetts are also reporting a rise in pneumonia hospitalizations among children.

    But a source at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) said that, nationally, 'nothing is out of the ordinary'.

    An 'ongoing investigation' is underway in Ohio into what is triggering the wave of illness, but officials do not think it is a new respiratory disease — and instead blame a mixture of several common infections all hitting at once.

    Big Lung is secretly paying doctors to harvest kids' lungs. They have 2 of them, would you really know if one is missing?

    Second... first time was April '22.

    I'm still young, so I'm sure it'll pass soon.

    I'm really sorry to hear that. I just got my booster shot a couple of weeks ago thankfully as the cold sets in, we'll be seeing more cases they say. I hope you have an easy, speedy recovery!
