Health Friday is a series devoted to information about Big Pharma, vaccines, general health, and associated topics. There are Important Notifications from our host, Wolf Moon; the Rules of our late, good Wheatie; and, certain caveats from Yours Truly, of which readers should be aware. They are linked here. Note: there is AI-generated material in The Focal Points and the 2nd Smartest Guy In The World articles in today’s offering. If readers wish to post AI-generated material in today’s discussion thread, they must cite their source. Thank you. Special thanks to our “sister blog”, https://www.marica1776.com/, for some of the items in today’s offering.
A personal note: On this date in 1947, a man named Samuel, and a woman named Catherine, were married at 10:30AM in a church ceremony in Pittsburgh, PA. It was a Thursday. They left right after the wedding breakfast for their two-and-a-half day honeymoon at Niagara Falls, NY. Samuel had to be back at work the following Monday as a pharmacist’s apprentice while finishing his studies at Pharmacy school; and, Catherine also had to be back at work the following Monday as a secretary. They set up housekeeping in their first home: a two-room apartment (with a shared bathroom) in a reconverted old house in the Shadyside section of Pittsburgh. Samuel and Catherine were Yours Truly’s parents. I believe they’re having a wonderful time together in the next world. Love you, Daddy and Mother. Miss you. Thank you — Thank you.

Some Interesting Items from the plethora of news out there:
Ebola:
**** From The Focal Points: https://www.thefocalpoints.com/p/nih-ebola-expert-under-fbi-investigation, “NIH Ebola Expert Under FBI Investigation for Smuggling Pathogens Into America From the Congo”, Nicolas Hulscher, MPH, 20 May 2026. It appears that Dr. Vincent Munster, returning from a trip to the Democratic Republic of the Congo (and accompanied by another NIH employee), was detained at the airport when returning to the United States for attempting to bring undeclared dangerous pathogens back in his luggage. Dr. Munster’s lab at the NIH “specialized” in the study of, and experimentation with, the Ebola virus. He is also one of the co-authors of the rejected 2018 DEFUSE proposal — along with Dr. Peter Daszak AND Dr. Ralph Baric. Please see the article for more information. There is also an interview with Mr. Hulscher that is included. (Yours Truly: One wonders if the situation with Dr. Munster could be a “data point” in the “sudden resignation” of the now-former Acting Director of the NIAID — Dr. Jeffery Taubenberger, the Fauci acolyte and “inventor” of the “Universal Influenza Vaccine” in 2020 [while Dr. Taubenberger was working at the NIH]: https://www.usnews.com/news/health-news/articles/2026-05-22.acting-niaid-chief-steps-down-amid-ebola-hantavirus-concerns.)
**** Again, from The Focal Points: https://www.thefocalpoints.com/p/the-bedrock-of-containment-why-sanitation, “The Bedrock of Containment: Why Sanitation is the Key to Controlling Ebola”. Peter A. McCullough, MD, MPH, 25 May 2026. The scientific paper referred to in the article is here: https://doi.org/10.1186/s12889-020-8240-9. “Hygiene programming during outbreaks: a qualitative case study of the humanitarian response during the Ebola outbreak in Liberia”; Alexandra Czerniewska and Sian White. 2020.
**** And, last but not least, the involvement in Ebola virus experiments by the now-fired (“retired” for “no reason disclosed”) and disgraced “Eminence Grise” of the COVID-19 disaster: Dr. Ralph Baric, PhD; experiments that used Gain-of-Function techniques. Dr. Baric authored the following papers: the first, at approximately the same time that the 2014 Ebola outbreak was raging; the second, in 2024: https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC4241145/, “Host genetic diversity enables Ebola hemorrhagic fever pathogenesis and resistance”; Ralph Baric, PhD, et al. 30 October 2014; and, https://doi.org/1016/j.celrep.2024.114127, “Mapping of susceptibility loci for Ebola virus pathogenesis in mice”; Ralph Baric, PhD, et al. 28 May 2024.

Ticks:
**** From The Focal Points: https://www.thefocalpoints.com/p/study-tick-borne-alpha-gal-syndrome, “STUDY: Tick-Borne Alpha-Gal Syndrome Incidence Skyrocketed 9,800% in the U.S. Since 2013”, Nicolas Hulscher, MPH, 22 May 2026. Please see the screenshot, below, from his article:

**** From 2nd Smartest Guy In The World: https://www.2ndsmartestguyintheworld.com/p/lyme-and-lone-star-bioweapon-diseases-33d, “LYME & LONE STAR BIOWEAPON DISEASES UPDATE: “This Tick Thing is Nuts” & Since 2013 Alpha-Gal Syndrome Incidence Skyrocketed 9,800%”, 24 May 2026. This article quotes the Hulscher post cited above, and also includes more information from other sources.
**** “And now, for something completely different”: the “contrarian view” from Sasha Latypova: https://sashalatypova.substack.com/p/trick-ticks-fear-porn-to-cover-up, “Weaponized Ticks!!!, a mini review”, 25 May 2026. Ms. Latypova argues that Alpha-Gal Syndrome is actually caused by immune system damage induced by vaccines.
Yours Truly will weigh in on the latter: One: there has been a huge increase in reported diagnoses of Alpha-Gal Syndrome since the rollout of the COVID-19 bioweapon “vaccines” in 2021. Two: the COVID-19 bioweapon “vaccines” induce or aggravate multiple types of immune and/or autoimmune disorders: see https://phmpt.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/11/5.3.6-postmarketing-experience.pdf, regarding BNT162b2 (COMIRNATY), FDA date-stamped 30 April 2021; scroll down to the Appendix 1. List of Adverse Events of Special Interest section of this report. “Autoimmune disorder”; “Complement factor C1 decreased”; Complement factor C2 decreased”; Complement factor C3 decreased”; Complement factor C4 decreased” are among the listings. The Complement factors C1 to C4 are crucial proteins in the innate immune system. Decreases / deficiencies in any or all of these complement factors will create dysfunction / malfunction of the innate immune system, inducing conditions ranging from angioedema to recurrent infections to neurological conditions, and more. Three: Please see: https://www.annalallergy.org/article/S1081-1206(23)00002-9/fulltext, “Alpha-Gal Syndrome is an immunoparasitologic disease”, John C. Carlson, MD, PhD, April 2023. Four: there may well also be the involvement of other types of “vaccines” (in other words, non-COVID-19 bioweapon “vaccines”) in damage to the innate immune system.

MAiD: It appears that the use of this “assisted suicide” protocol in Canada is “expanding”:
Inflammatory bowel disease is treatable and manageable: https://www.cdc.gov/inflammatory-bowel-disease/living-with/index.html. By the way, “Inflammatory bowel disease” is ALSO LISTED in the Appendix 1. section of the BNT162b2 (COMIRNATY) report cited above: it can therefore be an adverse event of the COVID-19 bioweapon “vaccines.” Note: some media outlets (for example, https://www.vigilantfox.com/p/germany-and-canada-go-full-1984-daily), state that the man (in his 40s) suffered from Crohn’s Disease, mental health issues, and substance abuse issues — all of which are treatable and manageable: and is ALSO LISTED as an adverse event of the COVID-19 bioweapon “vaccines”, per the BNT162b2 (COMIRNATY) report cited above.

And, last but not least, THIS insanity, in OREGON:
A petition is now the November ballot in Oregon that, if passed, would criminalize the killing of any animal (including fish and other marine life) for food; would ban pest and insect control; would criminalize and ban the teaching of these practices; and more.

Yesterday, scott467 had an excellent comment explaining ‘drafting’ in racing.
https://www.theqtree.com/2026/05/28/dear-maga-20260528-%e2%9c%be-thank-god-%c2%b1-theistic-evolution-%e2%88%88-thursday-open-topic/#comment-1615241
I had a little experience in real life with that.
Driving my little 4 banger sports car in 1972, going from California to Albuquerque, I drafted behind a tractor-trailer doing about 65 mph. I was less than a car length behind him, matching his speed.
Instead of about 4500 rpm, my little putt-putt [with the ancient bathtub combustion chambers] was at 1900 rpm. I was astounded.
But it couldn’t last long. With the air temp at 105 degrees, the air flow was too little to cool the radiator and little putt-putt began overheating. I had to pull out and resume consuming gasoline.
But it was quite the experience.
ο»Ώ
ο»Ώ ο»Ώ
ο»Ώ
A 1972 sports car is almost certainly a manual transmission. If you were doing 65 mph at the wheels, the only difference with engine rpm would be the transmission gear you were using. If you could maintain speed in 5th gear drafting or 4th gear driving alone, that would do it.
What the car was likely missing would be EGR — exhaust gas recirculation (and it was likely an aspirated carb instead of fuel injection). If it was using EGR, it would inject less fuel and use oxygen-deprived exhaust gasses to provide less power at a given rpm. That would have allowed the engine to cool.
I said the incident happened in 1972, not that the car was 1972.
It was a 1967 Sunbeam Alpine series 5 with 1725 cc 4 cylinder.
5speed was a fever dream and pollution control was limited to a PVC valve.
Differential ratio was 3.89; this was designed as a rally car not a speed demon.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sunbeam_Alpine
It’s been awhile since I worked on them but English tachs of that era were electric – they sensed the points closing. I could easily be confused about the tach reading but I distinctly remember having to lessen the pressure on the gas pedal to avoid hitting the truck.
At successful drafting speed, I was doing a feather push above idle on the accelerator. Idle in 4th gear almost sustained it but not quite. Anyway, I miss that car in which I enhanced the engine with a mild cam and full balancing. I don’t remember what metering needles I used on the carbs but stock was not cutting it.
Once I got the right needles, that little car roared.
Electric tachs?!?!?

Nice. Was that the one in Doctor No?
I read the wikipedia. Doctor No was a Series II, yours was a Series V.
I’m sorry you no longer own it.
So am I. And for the record, hanging above my desk at this moment is a brand new horn ring for a Series 2. Somewhere in my garage are tail light lenses for a Series 1-3.
And in my driveway is a basket case Series 5 which I will not live long enough to restore.
I’m too weak to do any work. I can’t seem to find anybody who wants to do the restoration work even though I can tell them exactly what to do no matter what.
But I have great memories of racing up and down the canyon roads in L.A. at 3:30 am, cool wind in my hair, warm smell of colitas, …

Wow!
Regarding this…
…It is the work of godless people. Mankind was given dominion over the earth and its creatures. I can’t believe that such a law would pass, but we can’t allow them to make changes according to their own whims.
Genesis 1:
26
And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.
Luke 24:
41
And while they yet believed not for joy, and wondered, he [Jesus] said unto them, Have ye here any meat?
42
And they gave him a piece of a broiled fish, and of an honeycomb.
43
And he took it, and did eat before them.

IF it ever became law, it will be ignored AND cannot be effectively enforced.
Oregon wide, citizens would ignore the law. Well, except ass wipes in Portland.
And rats will over-run the city. And bubonic plague will soon follow with the inevitable garbage wagon and some guy yelling, “Bring out your dead.”
Yes, but all the restaurants would become salad bars. Just think of it, the In-N-Out Burger shop would become the 2020 version of the speakeasy. I wonder if they would put a poker table in the freezer?

Resignation is NOT the lawful penalty for FRAUD.
The prosecutor’s office is as corrupt as she is.
As one who is in the middle of a fight with the WSBA over a law license, I guarantee that a resignation stops the discipline process. FYI, the DB can only recommend punishment – it has zero power to affect law licenses. It is up to the Supreme Court to implement discipline but they follow what the DB says 99.7% of the time. The other 0.3% they increase it.
That’s too bad…

The Ebola Story You’re Getting Is True. It’s Also Built to Be Forgotten.
There is an Ebola outbreak in eastern Congo. People are dying. The official account is accurate and incomplete, and the missing parts are the ones that explain everything.
Dr Malone misses an important point. Goma and Bukavu, are the capitols of the North and South Kivu provinces. They are said to be captured.

hahahahahaha…I LOVE IT! socialist running for mayor of LA gets treated to a mock encampment outside her OWN HOUSE…and she wasn’t happy about it, despite championing them earlier.
FTA
Nithya Raman is a member of the Los Angeles city council who is running for mayor on the far left. She wants to be the Zohran Mamdani of LA.
Thatβs not even an exaggeration, by the way. She has the same political philosophy as Mamdani, is supported by all the same types of people, and like Mamdani, she was born outside of the United States but feels completely entitled to run one of our biggest cities.
Recently, some activists set up a homeless encampment outside of her house. They were trying to make a point about her support for occupy-style tent encampments. She had the nerve to be offended by this.
The New York Post reports:
Brutal karma for Nithya Raman as she goes ballistic over staged homeless encampment outside her home
Socialist LA mayoral candidate Nithya Raman is getting hammered online after appearing visibly rattled by a staged homeless encampment protest outside her own home.
βIβm glad my kids didnβt have to see that,β Raman told comedian Adam Conover on his podcast released Wednesday before adding, βI thought this campaign was going to be about bike lanes and transportation.β
Raman was referring to a staged Memorial Day protest outside Ramanβs Silver Lake-area home.
Footage from the stunt shows homeless people climbing out of tents, staging an open-air barbecue and one individual walking around carrying a bucket as neighbors recorded the scene.
The podcast was quickly shared on online with comment exploding because Raman has spent years defending homeless encampments near schools, parks and neighborhoods across Los Angeles while opposing tougher enforcement restrictions.
Critics immediately accused the Democratic Socialist councilmember of showing a stunning lack of self-awareness as families across Los Angeles continue dealing with encampments outside homes, playgrounds and schools.

@USronaldcarter
DHS JUST PUBLISHED THE EXACT LIST OF AIRPORTS THEY WILL SHUT DOWN IF SANCTUARY CITIES REFUSE TO COOPERATE
Not vague threats. Not “we’ll look into it.” NAMED FACILITIES. SPECIFIC AIRPORTS. City by city.
JFK β New York City’s primary international gateway β customs processing ENDED
LaGuardia β New York β international arrivals rerouted
Newark β New Jersey β 5th busiest cargo hub in the US β SHUT for customs
LAX β Los Angeles β 2nd busiest international airport in America β OFFLINE
O’Hare β Chicago β one of the largest cargo airports on Earth β GONE
San Francisco β Silicon Valley’s global gateway β customs ENDED
SEA β Seattle β Pacific Rim trade hub β SHUT
Logan β Boston β New England’s only major international port β OFFLINE
PHL β Philadelphia β GONE
PDX β Portland β GONE
DEN β Denver β the hub connecting the entire Mountain West to international routes β SHUT
10+ named airports
10 sanctuary jurisdictions
ZERO of these cities have agreed to cooperate with ICE detainers
100% of the consequence falls on international travelers, cargo operators, and connecting passengers β not on the politicians who made the policy
Every airport on this list processes the international arrivals that feed the entire domestic flight network. Not just international travelers. Every connecting passenger. Every cargo shipment. Every tourist dollar.
Mullin’s exact words: “They don’t want us to enforce immigration, but they want us to process immigration at their facilities.”
That is not a political slogan. That is the operational rationale already being briefed to airline executives.
Mullin’s plans are still being drawn up. These are the airports at the center of it right now.
I’ll keep you updated. Turn on notifications.
https://x.com/USronaldcarter/status/2059908494539600066
Fantastic!
I was hoping that Boston would be on the hook!
It isn’t only the lack of cooperation with ICE, but also the refusal to provide the voting rolls: “sanctuary” cities and states won’t clean them up!
This is another financial hit, so another Federal assistance pipeline will go OFFLINE (HUD housing subsidies – buh-bye).
The pressure will keep mounting, until citizens ROAR at the commie-grifter politicians. BOOM!
not only that…think hotels, cab drivers, entertainment venues–those could also be hurt. tourism may die in those cities. and i wonder how many of those cities do “foreign birthing centers”?
The international trade and travelers can now go to non-sanctuary cities. Simply redirect to cities who are not on the sanctuary city list. Suck it, Dems.
Then send in ICE full force to each one.
DO IT!!!!!!!
Thank you for the work and information, PAVACA.

An informed public is now the best defense against what Establishment Medicine / the CDC / the FDA / the AMA are continuing to do.
HHS Sec. Kennedy, Jr., IMO, had a real chance to do something about the above. He has done, in practical terms, little or nothing.
One of his main goals — to roll back the old, horrendous 72+ injection CDC Childhood and Adolescent Immunization Schedules — was terminated by Federal Judge Brian E. Murphy earlier this year: due to a lawsuit brought by the American Academy of Pediatrics.
HHS Sec. Kennedy, Jr., has done NOTHING to ensure that the “new ACIP panel” at the CDC will actually MEET. This panel is supposed to convene in June 2026. But, IIRC, the “new charter” of the ACIP panel (drawn up after Judge Murphy disbanded the former ACIP panel AND voided ALL of the their recommendations back to June 2025) appear to have language about the ACIP panel’s meetings are at the “discretion” of the HHS Secretary.
Meanwhile, Dr. Marty Makary — who stated on video that LYME DISEASE was lab-created at Lab 257 at the NIH laboratory on Plum Island — suddenly “resigned” (in order not to be fired) recently.
HHS Sec. Kennedy, Jr., IMO, is being hobbled, almost to the point of irrelevance.
Regarding the ticks, cancers, alpha-gal, etc.;
Screwing around with the human immune system is nuts, and it is causing all kinds of things, in my opinion.
I continue to believe the “turbo cancers” are just regular cancers, but the immune system that would have fought them for a longer period of time is just ruined by the Covid vaxx.
Also, I think the alpha-gal syndrome panic is just another “freak people out” tool. If you live in a high-risk area, you have about a 1% chance of getting the syndrome IF you are bitten by a tick. Google AI:
“In the United States, an estimated 31 million people are bitten by ticks annually, making tick-borne illnesses the most common vector-borne diseases in the country.”
Doing math (God help me):
There are 341 million people in the U.S., making the 31 million bitten by ticks about 9% of the population. One percent of them get alpha-gal. That’s 310,000 people. That’s .09% of the U.S. population.
But everybody, freak out! Be afraid! Don’t pay attention to the man behind the curtain, or the terrible things being done by the government!
Thank you.
Based on the research that I’ve done over the past 6 years: By the time a person has taken four injections of a COVID-19 bioweapon “vaccine”, the innate immune system of that person’s body has near-catastrophic damage, if not been destroyed.
This is due to several factors:
One: the fact that the COVID-19 bioweapon “vaccines” contain elements specifically included that literally “pave the way” for cancer (example: the SV40 African Green Monkey cancer promoter-enhancer gene code); another element, that attacks the p53 protein of the body (this protein is the “cancer cell recognize and eliminate” protein); elements that attack / destroy the C1 to C4 complement proteins of the body (these proteins are crucial “regulators” of the innate immune system.)
Two: These “vaccines” contain elements that decimate / destroy the IgG3 “fight off and eliminate” cells of the innate immune system, while, AT THE SAME TIME, foster the increase of the IgG4 cells in the body (the “tolerate but never clear” cells.)
Three: the BASIC mechanism of the COVID-19 bioweapon “vaccine” — the inducement of a CONSTANT STATE OF “FAKE” COVID-19 INFECTION in the “vaccinated” person’s body: against which “fake infection” the person’s immune system is forced is TRY AND FIGHT OFF. Since the “vaccines” do the damage described above, the body HAS LESS AND LESS ABILITY OVER TIME to fight off this “fake COVID-19 infection”, which then LEAVES THE BODY WIDE OPEN to cancer establishment (or, re-establishment of prior controlled / in remission cancers in the body.)
I found this article, entitled “What to Do When You Encounter Weird Stuff in the Bible” really interesting:
“In order to answer the above question of how to handle weird stuff in the Bible, we must first define what βweirdβ actually means. A typical definition goes something like this:
βStrikingly unusual, strange, bizarre, supernatural, unexpected, eccentric, and/or unsettlingly different from the norm.β
What is fascinating is that the Bible does not ease us into this kind of strangeness. From the very beginning, Genesis presents a world filled with the unusual, the supernatural, the unexpected, and the deeply mysterious. In fact, the first three chapters alone give us more than enough to work with.
Think about it. In Genesis 1-3, matter is created out of nothing, Godβs Word alone orders the cosmos, and man is formed from dirt, vivified by Godβs breath in his nostrils. The Creator mysteriously creates the manβs wife out of matter taken from his side. Then, the two humans stroll with God each day in His garden, only to be seduced by a deceitful, talking snake who convinces them to defy their Creator. This disobedience results in a hopeless, cataclysmic pallor of eternal death and damnation for all of creation.
And I repeat, thatβs only some of the weird stuff covered in the first three chapters of the Bible.”
https://www.biblegateway.com/learn/bible-101/bible-study-tips/encountering-weird-stuff-in-bible/
Later in the article, he writes:
“Since youβre reading this article, Iβm going to assume that you accept that God has told His true, real story in the pages of the Bible. However, that belief in and of itself doesnβt make the weird go away, does it? So, before we go any further, I am going to suggest that since the Bible commences with the presupposition that βIn the beginning God created β¦β (Genesis 1:1a) that it is His story β end of story. It simply doesnβt begin with βIn the beginning Jeffβ¦β or any other name for that matter.
βIn the beginning God β¦β is an emphatic statement that will establish that He, God, is the Creator, Narrator, Primary Character, and Author of the story of the Bible. Anyone or anything that comes after Him is to be seen as secondary and supporting cast. Secondary or supporting means exactly that β second. Not primary or first.
The sooner you understand this, the more in context your own role becomes in relation to the Creator. In the Bible, God invites the reader into His story β the story of His Kingdom being established on earth. His story includes the weird stuff with all of its twists and turns, plot-twists, villains, heroes, and heroines. But make no mistake about it β itβs Godβs story.”
I had never even thought of it that way. And that means “history” really IS “His Story.”

Good morning, C&C, itβs Friday! Your roundup includes: how Jill’s stroke memoir, Hunter’s Candace Owens cameo, and the DNC’s year-late autopsy collided into a polycrisis the Democrats can’t talk their way out of and can’t stop talking about; how Bezos’s Blue Origin turned its only New Glenn launch pad into an anomaly visible from Cocoa Beach, while SpaceX quietly filed for the biggest IPO in human history; and how a New York Times story about race in a 1960s NIH vaccine trial accidentally exposed the much uglier disease infecting our public-health agencies β a Cold-War utilitarianism that treats babies as line items and informed consent as an inconvenience.
