Right on the heels of a handful of sunscreen products being pulled from the shelves for having benzene, a known carcinogen, in them, scientists are calling on the FDA to now pull thousands of products that contain octocrylene, another suspected carcinogenic ingredient.
The chemical also can interfere with hormones and reproductive organs. About 2,400 sunscreen products contain octocrylene, according to Bloomberg News. “We don’t know what their safety is,” Craig Downs, executive director of the nonprofit Haereticus Environmental Health, told Bloomberg. “The FDA doesn’t know what their safety is and it’s unconscionable that the FDA would allow something that we don’t know if it’s safe or not.”
The FDA had requested more information from sunscreen makers two years ago, but that didn’t happen, a senior scientist at Environmental Working Group said. A sunscreen trade group called the latest report “misleading,” Bloomberg said.

Only Half of COVID Hospital Admissions Tested Positive
The Telegraph secured access to leaked data from an NHS daily situation report showing
only 44% of patients classi¦ed as COVID had a positive COVID test on admission
Many British experts were appalled at the revelation, saying that what is currently
published could lead people to make "false conclusions. " They said the information is
"inevitably misleading and gives a false picture"
Clear data have also been di¨cult to ¦nd in the U.S., as demonstrated by a reevaluation
of death toll numbers in two California counties, which lowered the count by at least 22%
Additionally, there are signs the COVID injections are failing, as breakthrough infections
are rising and the CDC says the very populations the injections are meant to protect —
the elderly and those with comorbidities — are those who are experiencing the worst
breakthrough infections
Education & Vaccine Obedience
When it comes to who’s hesitant to take a COVID-19 vaccine, it’s the most highly educated Americans who “probably” or “definitely” aren’t planning on getting it, a new study found.
Researchers at Carnegie Mellon University and the University of Pittsburgh said, ““It finds that the association between hesitancy and education level follows a U-shaped curve with the highest hesitancy among those least and most educated. People [with] a master’s degree had the least hesitancy, and the highest hesitancy was among those holding a Ph.D.”
The researchers’ findings correlate with a 2009 study in BMC Pediatrics that found that parents who refused vaccines for their children “reside in well-educated, higher-income areas than non-refusers.”

The mRNA inventor speaks
Dr. Robert Malone, the inventor of the mRNA and DNA vaccine core platform technology, expressed his concerns about the spike protein used in COVID-19 vaccines to the FDA last fall, but was dismissed
In its native form in SARS-CoV-2, the spike protein is responsible for the pathologies of the viral infection, and in its wild form it’s known to open the blood-brain barrier, cause cell damage (cytotoxicity) and other problems
Malone speaks about the bioethics of the Emergency Use Authorization (EUA) granted to COVID-19 vaccines; experimentation without proper informed consent violates the Nuremberg Code
The concept of the noble lie was first described by Plato; it refers to the notion that, in the case of high-status individuals or designated public leaders, it’s acceptable to lie if the lie is made in the interest of the common good
Three lies are being circulated about COVID-19, including the need for herd immunity, the notion that herd immunity can only be achieved by universal vaccination and that the vaccines are completely safe; any discussion that challenges or goes against these three elements is censored
Malone believes that children and young adults up to age 30 or 35 should not be vaccinated because the risks outweigh the benefits in this population

Natural Immunity : Previous COVID infections provide long-lasting Immunity
As government agencies push people to get vaccinated even if they’ve already had COVID, evidence is piling up that previously infected persons have a long-lasting immunity — possibly lifelong.
According to an article in the journal Nature, “People who recover from mild COVID-19 have bone-marrow cells that can churn out antibodies for decades.” It’s possible that the viral variants going around right now could “dampen” some of the protection, but the journal still says that people who had SARS-CoV-2 “will probably make antibodies against the virus for most of their lives.”
This is a positive follow-up to hints in early 2021 that the immunity could last at least five months, and possibly longer. At the time in one study by Public Health England, only 44 of 6,614 previously infected persons caught the virus again.
In numbers, this means that previous infection gives 94% protection against reinfection and 83% reduced risk for all infections, Daily Mail reported.

Bayer stops with Glyphosate Herbicides
Beginning in 2023, AG Bayer’s Monsanto unit will stop selling glyphosate-based products in the U.S. and substitute them with “alternative active ingredients.”
The decision follows ongoing litigation regarding the carcinogenicity of Monsanto’s Roundup weed killer. Sustainable Pulse and Detox’s project director Henry Rowlands commented on Bayer’s announcement, saying, “It is a great victory in a small battle for the removal of glyphosate from the lawn and garden market.
“However, this is just part of a much larger war. We must all remember that this will not stop glyphosate being sprayed in parks, schools and on our food crops in ever greater amounts across the U.S. and the world. It is time to phase the chemical out globally and to replace it with safe alternatives.”
Monsanto was engaged in a “deep, coordinated effort to smear, discredit and try to shut down” any information linking Roundup to cancer

Who is hiding the Covid origin?
In its September 2019 report, the Global Preparedness Monitoring Board — a joint arm of the World Health Organization and the World Bank — warned that technological advances “allow for disease-creating micro-organisms to be engineered or recreated in laboratories,” and that the release of such organisms could cause greater devastation than a natural outbreak
On the Board are Sir Jeremy Farrar (director of the Wellcome Trust) and Dr. Anthony Fauci (director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, NIAID), both of whom have defended the zoonotic origin theory for SARS-CoV-2 and helped suppress the lab-leak theory
February 1, 2020, Farrar set up a confidential conference call with a dozen individuals, including Fauci. Two days later, WHO director-general Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus made a public call for censorship of “misinformation”
Five days after that call, Peter Daszak circulated the first draft of a scientific consensus statement that eventually got published in The Lancet, and thereafter was used by mainstream media and fact checkers everywhere to “debunk” any and all evidence of a lab leak
Six weeks after Farrar’s group call, several of the participants published a commentary in Nature Medicine, in which they stated they “do not believe that any type of laboratory-based scenario is plausible”
But according to James Meigs: "The dam is breaking. And with the surging floodwaters, comes a stunning realization: Almost across the board, our elite institutions got the most important question about COVID wrong"
“The story of why the line of inquiry survived is not an account of leading scientists and health organizations dutifully parsing the evidence.
Instead, it is largely the story of little-known researchers — many working outside the bounds of elite institutions — who didn’t let the political implications of their findings derail their efforts.
Much of what we know today about the Wuhan Institute’s risky research is thanks to these independent skeptics who challenged the institutional consensus. Some risked their careers to do so.”
