California's Last Nuclear Plant Will Shut Down in 2025. Why This is a Bad News For You?

California's Last Nuclear Plant Will Shut Down in 2025. Why This is a Bad News For You?: California is not following up with the power needs of its citizens. In August 2020, several California citizens endured rolling electricity blackouts throughout a heatwave that maxed out the state’s power framework. The California Independent System Operator points to flex warnings urging customers to make back on power regulation and shift electricity methods to off-peak […]

Fauci as Darth Vader of the Covid wars - Asia Times

Fauci as Darth Vader of the Covid wars - Asia Times: Robert F Kennedy Jr's The Real Anthony Fauci: Bill Gates, Big Pharma and the Global War on Democracy and Public Health should be front-page news in all the news media in the US. Instead, it has been met with the proverbial thundering silence. Critics seeking to have Kennedy dismissed as a kook trading on a famous name had scored a hit in February, when Instagram permanently deleted his account, allegedly for making false claims about coronavirus and vaccines. Nevertheless, the book, published only a few days ago, is already a certified pop hit on Amazon. RFK Jr, chairman of the board of and chief legal counsel for Children’s Health Defense, sets out to deconstruct a New Normal, encroaching upon all of us since early 2020. In my early 2021 book Raging Twenties I have termed this force techno-feudalism. Kennedy describes it as “rising totalitarianism,” complete with “mass propaganda and censorship, the orchestrated promotion of terror, the manipulation of science, the suppression of debate, the vilification of dissent and use of force to prevent protest.”

Calls for Diablo Canyon shut down to be reconsidered : Corporate - World Nuclear News

Calls for Diablo Canyon shut down to be reconsidered : Corporate - World Nuclear News: The premature shutdown of Diablo Canyon units 1 and 2 will "inflict grave harm to California's economy and environment," according to the American Nuclear Society. The closure of California's last remaining nuclear power plant will cause more grid instability and rolling blackouts for the state because Diablo Canyon reliably supplies about 10% of in-state power, it says. Former US energy secretaries Steven Chu and Ernest Moniz have also called for the decision to shut down the plant to be reassessed.

The epidemiological relevance of the COVID-19-vaccinated population is increasing - The Lancet Regional Health – Europe

The epidemiological relevance of the COVID-19-vaccinated population is increasing - The Lancet Regional Health – Europe: High COVID-19 vaccination rates were expected to reduce transmission of SARS-CoV-2 in populations by reducing the number of possible sources for transmission and thereby to reduce the burden of COVID-19 disease. Recent data, however, indicate that the epidemiological relevance of COVID-19 vaccinated individuals is increasing. In the UK it was described that secondary attack rates among household contacts exposed to fully vaccinated index cases was similar to household contacts exposed to unvaccinated index cases (25% for vaccinated vs 23% for unvaccinated).

As in much of Zimbabwe, here the coronavirus is quickly being relegated to the past, as political rallies, concerts and home gatherings have returned. Earlier this week, Zimbabwe recorded just 33 new COVID-19 cases and zero deaths, in line with a recent fall in the disease across the continent, where World Health Organization data show that infections have been dropping since July.
