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: Yours Truly has checked today’s offering for any AI-generated content. To the best of her knowledge and belief, there is none, except perhaps for AI-generated images in links included in today’s post. If readers wish to add any AI-generated content to the discussion thread today, they must cite their source. Thank you.

Today’s offering is about the “under-the-table” work, the “being performed but under another name” work, the “grandfathered-in” work, of Gain-of-Function (GoF) experiments that are onoing. These GoF experiments involve experiments with mRNA-based platforms; with “inactivated virus” platforms; and, with “novel delivery” platforms. These GoF experiments are being funded by “private Big Money”; and, by the United States government (in other words, with taxpayer money.) This post is long; please bear with me.

It is now well-known that the COVID-19 disaster was a product of GoF experiments, of two types: One, the GoF work that was performed in various labs (the Baric Lab at UNC, Chapel Hill; the Wuhan Institute of Virology, Wuhan, Communist China; the United States Army biological weapons labs at Ft. Detrick, Maryland, among others.) And, Two, the GoF work that was performed using the lab-created Wuhan Hu1 SARS-CoV-2 virus itself as the foundation for the modRNA (aka mRNA) COVID-19 “vaccines” that were developed by numerous companies, among them: PfizerUSA (at the company’s Pearl River, New York, facility; and, at other facilities); and, BioNTech (Mainz, Germany); Moderna (with the NIAID in Bethesda, Maryland, and at other facilities) — for use in the United States and also world-wide. (Note: PfizerUSA and BioNTech are separate companies that operate as a “joint venture” called Pfizer-BioNTech. PfizerUSA and BioNTech each have a separate CEO [Chief Executive Officer].)

Three articles by Jon Fleetwood start today’s offering. The first is here: https://jonfleetwood.substack.com/p/260-children-infected-with-tubersulosis, “260 Children Infected With Tuberculosis in Gates-Funded Study Injecting Children with Live Mycobacterium bovis Bacteria: “New England Journal of Medicine'”, 8 May 2025. The second is here: https://jonfleetwood.substack.com/p/new-bill-gates-funded-chimeric-polio, “New Bill Gates-Funded Chimeric Polio Vaccine Sheds 100% in Recipients, Spread Documented: ‘The Lancet’ Journal”, 18 August 2025. The third is here: https://jonfleetwood.substack.com/p/bill-gates-funds-slim-microneedle, “Bill Gates Funds ‘SLIM’ Microneedle Tech That Self-Assembles Inside the Body”, 24 April 2025.

Regarding the first Jon Fleetwood article: The 260 study subject children were living in South Africa, and were between the ages of 10 and 18 years. They were confirmed by to be HIV-negative at the time they were added to the study subject pool. They were injected with the Danish tuberculosis vaccine BCG1331 strain (Bacille Calmette-Guerin). The Package Insert for this vaccine is here: https://nibsc.org/documents/ifu/07-270.pdf. The BCG1331 strain is the Mycobacterium bovis strain, which causes tuberculosis in cattle and can also cause the disease in humans, especially in HIV-compromised persons. Please see the screenshot from the Fleetwood article, below:

The paper that resulted from the study is here: https://doi.org/10.1056/NEJMoa2412381, “BCG Revaccination for the Prevention of Mycobacterium tuberculosis Infection”, Alexander C Schmidt, et al., 8 May 2025. Please see the screenshot from this paper, below:

In other words, 260 children now have tuberculosis because of the BCG1331 strain vaccine that they were injected with. And that Bill Gates funded this “human guinea-pig experiment.” But there’s more — the Fleetwood article also describes the Bill Gates-funded Mycobacterium bovis experiments at the University of Texas, performed in 2012, that resulted in a what may be called a “turbo-charged Gain-of-Function” version of this tuberculosis bacterium. The paper that was published from the 2012 study is here: https://doi.org/10.1016/S1472-9792(13)70007-6, “Mycobacterium tuberculosis MtrAY102C is a gain-of-function mutant that potentially acts as a constitutively active protein”, Akash T Satsangi, et al., published December 2013.

Regarding the second Fleetwood article: Another Bill Gates-funded effort, this time about a lab-created chimeric polio oral “vaccine” that was tested on human subjects in the United States. The study results are nothing short of terrifying. Please the screenshot from the Fleetwood article, below:

There was a 100% incidence of “shedding” of this lab-created chimeric oral polio “vaccine.” Six human subjects were released from the study when it was found that testing of their stool showed they had possibly contracted the oral vaccine virus from other study subjects. Several human subjects had severe adverse reactions to this lab-created chimeric oral polio “vaccine.” This lab-created chimeric oral polio “vaccine” caused “unexpected” interactions with the type 2 poliovirus.

The team that lab-created this chimeric oral polio “vaccine” were from medical centers across the United States, including: University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill; University of Vermont; and, Dartmouth. The paper that was published from the study is here: https://www.thelancet.com/journals/laninf/article/PIIS1473-3099(25)00285-3/fulltext, “Safety and immunogenicity of novel live attenuated type 1 and type 3 oral poliomyelitis vaccines in healthy adults in the USA: a first-in-human, observer-masked, multicentre, phase 1 randomized controlled trial”, Laina D Mercer, PhD, et al., 13 August 2025. The clinical trial for this lab-created chimeric polio virus “vaccine” is listed here: https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT04529538. Again, from the Fleetwood article:

Regarding the third Fleetwood article: Bill Gates has funded the creation of a new technology, called “SLIM microneedle”, which injects “microcrystals” of a contraceptive drug (levonorgestrel) into the body of a female; and, which microcrystals then”self-assemble” into an “implant” inside her body. Please see the screenshot from the Fleetwood article on this situation, below:

This type of “self-injected, self-assembly inside the body” approach has profound implications. Please see below, again from the Fleetwood article:

The paper that was published on this issue is here: https://www.nature.com/articles/s44286-025-00194-x, “Self-aggregating long-lasting injectable microcrystals”, Vivian K. Feig, et al., 24 March 2025. Note how “self-assembling” has magically become “self-aggregating” — in some attempt to hide the fact that the microcrystals really do “self-assemble?”

The SLIM “delivery system” for the contraceptive levonorgestrel (called “LNG” in the paper above) uses a solvent called Benzyl Benzoate (called “BB” in the paper above.) The paper describes the experiments performed to find the “right combination” of levonorgestrel + Benzyl Benzoate to create the SLIM delivery system — the “winning delivery system candidate” was named “LNG-BB.” Benzyl Benzoate is clearly dangerous. Part of Section 4 FIRST AID MEASURES from the MSDS Safety Sheet on Benzyl Benzoate from Spectrum Chemical (https://www.spectrumchemical.com/) is below:

And this is the “long-lasting solvent” that is used in the SLIM microneedle “self-aggregating” delivery system for levonorgestrel. Which means that this solvent will be acting in the body of the female who uses this delivery system for this drug for an (undetermined) amount of time.

Now, on to a recent GoF experiment, this one funded by NIH / NIAID, at the University of Pittsburgh. This GoF experiment resulted in the lab-creation of a chimeric H5N1 Avian Influenza virus strain that could infect dairy cattle. Jon Fleetwood wrote about this situation, here: https://jonfleetwood.substack.com/p/nih-funded-pennsylvania-researchers, “NIH-Funded Pennsylvania Researchers Build New Frankenstein Bird Flu Virus: ‘Journal of Virology'”, 26 August 2025. Vesicular stomatitis virus (VSV) is a virus that infects horses and cattle. In humans, Stomatitis infection can result in HSV-1 (the “cold sore” virus: per https://my.clevelandclinic.org/health/diseases/stomatitis-oral-mucositis.) However, the researchers at the University of Pittsburgh concentrated on “splicing” an element of VSV with H5N1. The paper that was published from this experiment is here: https://doi.org/10.1128/jvi.00621-25, “Dairy cattle herds mount a characteristic antibody response to highly pathogenic H5N1 avian influenza viruses”, Kevin R. McCarthy, et al., 25 August 2025. Please see the screenshots from the Fleetwood article on this issue, below:

Isn’t it “convenient timing” that this “new, chimeric VSV + H5N1 virus” comes on the heels of the announcement by the White House on 5 May 2025, that Gain-of-Function research would be stopped — but it appears that “certain contracts” would be permitted to “finish out”? And, that one of those “certain contracts” is with Arcturus Therapeutics for its self-amplifying RNA (saRNA) Avian Influenza “vaccine”, ARCT-2304? The White House announcement is here: https://www.whitehouse.gov/presidential-actions/2025/05/improving-the-safety-and-security-of-biological-research/. The news release related to the second quarter 2025 financial update and “pipeline progress” for Arcturus Therapeutics in which ARCT-2304 is mentioned, is here: https://www.biospace.com/press-releases/arcturus-therapeutics-announces-second-quarter-2025-financial-update-and-pipeline-progress, 12 August 2025. The clinical trial for ARCT-2304 is registered here: https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT06602531; which, by the way, has NO saline-only Placebo control group; the only “control groups” in the study will be injected with a “control vaccine” or a “placebo vaccine” (which last, in and of itself, is not a true Placebo.)

And now, regarding something else: the GoF experiments that resulted in the lab-creation of an Avian Influenza “vaccine” which is a “Cocktail of Inactivated Avian Influenza Viruses”, a patent owned by Dr. Jeffery Taubenberger, a “career medical employee” of HHS and the federal government, and who is also the current Acting Director of the NIAID (National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, previously headed by Dr. Anthony Fauci), and who now is in control of the $500 Million dollars that was pulled from mRNA research activities in May 2025. This “bird flu vaccine cocktail” contains BPL (Beta-propiolactone), a known carcinogen.

The NIH TechTransfer information on this “cocktail” invention by Dr. Taubenberger is here: https://www.techtransfer.nih.gov/tech/tab-3388, “Broadly Protective Influenza Vaccine Compromising a Cocktail of Inactivated Avian Influenza Viruses”. Sounds “benign,” yes? Until one starts reading the actual Patent document itself, found here: https://image-ppubs.uspto.gov/dirsearch-public/print/downloadPdf/11369675, filed 21 July 2020. The following are screenshots from the Patent document:

Note it appears that Dr. Taubenberger was experimenting with as many as sixteen different strains of Avian Influenza to lab-create his “cocktail vaccine.”

Note it appears that Dr. Taubenberger is perfectly all right with “vaginal” and “rectal” administration of his “cocktail vaccine.”

Note that the Patent was registered in July 2020 — which can only mean that work on the experiments to lab-create this “Avian Influenza cocktail vaccine” must have begun at least nine months earlier. This would place the commencement of the experiments around October 2019 — just before the COVID-19 original virus was unleashed on on the world.

Here are two screenshots from the MSDS Safety Sheet for Beta-propiolactone from Sigma Aldritch (https://www.sigmaaldritch.com/US/en/sds/sigma/p5648):

And THIS ingredient is part of the “Avian Influenza Cocktail Vaccine” of Dr. Jeffery Taubenberger, two possible methods of administration of which are INTRANASAL or INHALED, per the Patent document images above?

It is not enough that HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., terminated 22 contracts for mRNA research in May of this year, but allowed “certain contracts” for mRNA (and saRNA) research to “finish out.” It is not enough that the White House announced a ban on Gain-of-Function research, since this type of research is still going on — funded by “private Big Money”, and/or by the NIH / NIAID (in other words, the United States government). The entire Gain-of-Function situation must be stopped, from all funding sources and on all levels of research and experimentation — until there are clear, firm, and enforceable regulations and restrictions on who can perform this type of research; that such research can only be permitted under strict circumstances; that such research must be under tight supervision; and, that such research can only be performed where there is a clear need in the area of public health — not what amounts to a “chimeric fishing expedition” to lab-create viruses. It is time for any and all “go-along-to-get-along” activities to stop — such as, bowing to the “demand” by Sen. Dr. Bill Cassidy for his “cooperation” in “working with” HHS as regards hiring, or anything else. By the way — Sen. Dr. Cassidy has received donations from multiple pharmaceutical entities (United Health, AstraZeneca, Pediatrix Medical Group, and so on: per Open Secrets (https://opensecrets.org/.) And — that the further development of the above-discussed “Avian Influenza Cocktail Vaccine” must be stopped.

HHS Secretary Kennedy, Jr.: Please understand that the “career medical bureaucrats” in the CDC, the FDA, and the other divisions of the HHS, are not inclined to your views. They want “the good old days” of these divisions brought back. They are working “behind the scenes” in some instances, and in other instances, out in the open, to obstruct, delay, and thwart your efforts to clean up HHS and “re-tool” the department to reflect Make American Healthy Again. There is even what may be called “soft interference” by persons not employed by HHS such as, Sen. Dr. Cassidy.

THERE. MUST. BE. ACCOUNTABILITY.

THERE. MUST. BE. JUSTICE.

THERE. MUST. BE. TRUTH.

Health Friday 7.18.2025 Open Thread: Moderna, the FDA, and the NIH/NIAID

The header image for today’s post is courtesy of iStock and Google Images.

Health Friday is a series devoted to information about Big Pharma, vaccines, general health, and associated topics. As today’s offering speaks to the disaster of the COVID-19 “vaccines”, Yours Truly dedicates it to all persons, of whatever age or location, who have passed away from the negative effects of the COVID-19 “vaccines” that they had injected into their body.

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: Yours Truly has checked today’s offering for any AI-generated content. To the best of her knowledge and belief, there is one AI-generated image in The Focal Points article, cited below. If readers wish to add any AI-generated content to the discussion thread for today’s offering, they must cite their source. Thank you.

The phrase to keep in mind when reading today’s post is: Follow the money.

Today’s post begins here: https://www.thefocalpoints.com/p/fda-commits-grave-betrayal-fully, “FDA Commits Grave Betrayal: Fully Approves Deadly Genetic Injections for Infants”, by Nicolas Hulscher, MPH, 11 July 2025. There is an embedded video interview with Mr. Hulscher in this article. This article and interview regard the FDA “full approval” on 10 July 2025 of the Moderna modRNA COVID-19 “vaccine”, SPIKEVAX, to be used on infants and young children from age 6 months to 11 years old. A screenshot of a portion of the Table 2. from this article is below, showing the amounts of “loose” DNA in this “vaccine”:

The published scientific paper that is linked in the above Hulscher article is here: https://publichealthpolicyjournal.com/review-of-calls-for-market-removal-of-covid-19-vaccines-intensify-risks-far-outweigh-theoretical-benefits/, “Review: Calls for Market Removal of COVID-19 Vaccines Intensify as Risks Far Outweigh Theoretical Benefits”, Nicolas Hulscher, Mary Bowden, Peter A. MCullough, 28 January 2025.

Yours Truly now turns to a crucial component of the Moderna modRNA COVID-19 “vaccine” situation: the “tied to the hip” relationship that this company has with the NIAID (National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases), part of the NIH (National Institutes of Health.) Both the NIAID and the NIH are institutes of the federal government Department of Health and Human Services (HHS.) Katherine Watt, of Bailiwick News, has studied and written about the “coziness” between Big Pharma entities such as Pfizer-BioNTech and Moderna with federal government agencies, such as the FDA. Please see: https://bailiwicknews.substack.com/p/why-pfizer-and-moderna-and-fda-are, “Why Pfizer and Moderna and FDA are working toward government authorization to inject babies and small children”, 23 March 2022. Ms. Watt includes a statement made by Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. in 2021, on this situation. Please see: https://wsau.com/2021/12/31/robert-f-kennedy-jr-explains-why-fauci-is-going-after-children/, by Meg Ellefson, 31 December 2021. A screenshot from the Bailiwick News article on this is below:

There are SEC filings and “Confidential Agreements” between Moderna, the FDA. and the NIAID, regarding the funding and development of mRNA “vaccines.” There are patent co-ownership and revenue-sharing agreements between Moderna and the NIAID. There is a Moderna – NIH Confidential Agreement that goes back to 2015.

The trail begins here: https://www.reuters.com/business/healthcare-pharmaceuticals/moderna-make-milestone-payments-nih-covid-vaccine-2023-02-24/,”Moderna to make milestone payments to NIH for COVID vaccine”, 24 February 2023. Please see the screenshot from this article, below:

By the way, milestone payments would include payments for items such as, developing the “latest version” of a COVID-19 modRNA “vaccine” — for examples: the Moderna (SPIKEVAX) “2025-2026 COVID-19 Formula Vaccine” that was just “recommended” by the ACIP committee of the CDC; and, the FDA “full approval” of SPIKEVAX being used on infants and young children age 6 months to 11 years old, which “full approval” was granted on 10 July 2025. It appears that Moderna had attempted to “modify” or “avoid” certain types of sharing agreements stipulations, royalty payments to the HHS (via the NIAID), and HHS – Moderna co-owned patents agreements; and, for which, the company was taken to court by the HHS. The decision was rendered against Moderna, with an order to make a multi-million dollar “catch-up payment” to HHS -NIAID.

Another aspect of the trail is here: https://thehill.com/opinion/congress-blog/4533574-how-the-national-institutes-of-health-became-a-den-of-cronyism/, by Sen. Rand Paul, MD (R-KY), 15 March 2024. Please see the screenshot from this article, below:

Now, to the 2015 “Confidential Agreements” between Moderna and the NIH. The document is found here: https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/6935195-NIH-Moderna-Confidential-Agreements/, November 2015. This document has numerous “amendments” and “additions” that go through the year 2018 — and, the last of which appears to “cover” all items related to COVID-19 “vaccines”. On page 16 of the document, with special attention to page 19, start the CRADA stipulations (Cooperative Research and Development Agreement stipulations between Moderna and the NIH.) The language here has numerous Proprietary Information redactions; however, it appears to be broad enough to cover the later co-ownership by Moderna and the NIH of the SPIKEVAX patents and their Expiry Dates (more on these below.)

Here are page 19 and a portion of page 20 of the NIH/NIAID and Moderna CRADA agreement, below:

Recall that the director of the NIAID in 2015 was Dr. Anthony Fauci; and, the director of the NIH in 2015 was Dr. Francis Collins.

The third part of the trail is here, the SEC filing that details the NIH – Moderna agreements to share COVID-19 “vaccine” development, patents, and royalty payments for use of said “vaccines”, is found here: https://www.sec.gov/ix?=docs/Archives/edgar/data/1682852/000168285223000011/mrna-20221231.html, filed 31 December 2022.

Page 41 of this document names the “partners” that will be included in the agreements: DARPA; BARDA; and, the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation.

Page 43 of this document details the SPIKEVAX patents and Expiry Dates that will be co-owned by Moderna and the NIH. A screenshot of this page is below:

There is also a “vaccine mechanisms” series of sections in this agreement. A screenshot of one of these sections is below:

And, there is a section regarding the “Drug Design Studio” section of the SEC document. Please see the screenshot from this section, below:

On 7 July 2025, HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., cancelled the 10 July meeting that was scheduled for the USPSTF committee of the HHS (United States Preventive Services Task Force committee.) If Sec. Kennedy, Jr., can do this, why can’t he do something to modify / rescind / cancel the NIH / NIAID – Moderna “Confidential Agreements”, the related royalty-sharing payments agreements, and the 31 December 2022 SEC filing? Is it because of the “SPIKEVAX Patents and Expiry Dates” agreement, the screenshot of which from the SEC filing is above, and which runs, in total, until 22 October 2041? Are his hands tied? “Inquiring minds want to know.”

FLASH ADDENDUM: Our good Gail Combs asked to have the following added to today’s offering, regarding the development of a new BLACK PLAGUE strain variation that was just done by scientist in Israel. Yours Truly is also adding another item related to other work developing BLACK PLAGUE strain variations.

ISRAELI scientists have just developed an mRNA-based BLACK PLAGUE (Yersinia Pestis, or Y. Pestis) vaccine, using a lab-modified gene and adding N1-Methylpseudouridine as the lipid nanoparticle “delivery system.” Please see: https://jonfleetwood.substack.com/cp/168494356, “Israel Engineers Mutant Plague — Puts Its Genes in mRNA Shot That Makes Human Cells Produce Virulence and Immune-Evasion ‘Black Death’ Proteins: Journal ‘Advanced Science'”, 16 July 2025. This is the “BLACK PLAGUE version” of the modRNA + N1-Methylpseudouridine COVID-19 “vaccines” — except that the “payload” is a lab-created genetically altered and more virulent version of the BLACK PLAGUE.

Recall that Yours Truly has written extensively about the mechanism of the N1-Methylpseudouridine used in the Pfizer-BioNTech and in the Moderna modRNA COVID-19 “vaccines” (there’s the connection to Moderna.) This lab-created compound ingredient replaces the natural Uridine in the COVID-19 “vaccinated” person’s body, kicking the door wide open for catastrophic immune system evasion by said “vaccine”: evasion that will occur throughout the body and also the brain. The connection to both Moderna and to Pfizer-BioNTech in regards the use of N1-Methylpseudouridine is that BOTH companies specifically included this lab-created chemical compound in their modRNA COVID-19 “vaccines”, the description of which inclusion IS IN THE PATENT DOCUMENTS THAT WERE FILED BY EACH COMPANY. This begs the question: Did the Israeli scientists pay either Pfizer-BioNTech or Moderna for the “rights” to use this compound IN THEIR BLACK PLAGUE VARIATION “VACCINE” EXPERIMENTS?

The peer-reviewed paper that is referred to in the Jon Fleetwood article is here: https://doi.org/10.1002/advs.202501286, “Novel Bivalent mRNA-LNP Vaccine for Highly Effective Protection Against Pneumonic Plague”, Dan Peer, et al., 25 April 2025. A screenshot from the Fleetwood article is below:

But wait, there’s more! The Fleetwood article links to a paper published in 2024 regarding research by the United States Army Combat Capabilities Development Command Chemical Biological Center in Gunpowder, Maryland, ALSO on lab-creating a variation of the BLACK PLAGUE. This variation was “cultured” in a “bath” of Escherichia coli (E. coli, the same type of “culturing material” that is used by both Pfizer-BioNTech and by Moderna to produce their respective modRNA COVID-19 “vaccines.” The paper is here: https://doi.org/10.1099/acmi.0.000723.v3, “Towards a Yersinia Pestis lipid A recreated in an Escherichia coli scaffold genome”, Nathan D. McDonald, Erin E. Antoshak, 17 July 2024. A screenshot of the Abstract of this paper is below:

In Yours Truly’s opinion: The entire “let’s make a lab-created RNA + lipid nanoparticle vaccine” situation is out of control. The entire “let’s alter a gene or two from a deadly infectious disease and make a variation of this disease” situation is out of control.

THERE. MUST. BE. JUSTICE.

THERE. MUST. BE. TRUTH.

Dear KMAG: 20250512 Trump Won Three Times ❀ Open Topic

Joe Biden never won. This is our Real President – 45, 46, 47.

AND our beautiful REALFLOTUS.

This Stormwatch Monday Open Thread remains open – VERY OPEN – a place for everybody to post whatever they feel they would like to tell the White Hats, and the rest of the MAGA/KAG/KMAG world (with KMAG being a bit of both).

And yes, it’s Monday…again.

But we WILL get through it!

We will always remember Wheatie,

Pray for Trump,

Yet have fun,

and HOLD ON when things get crazy!

We will follow the RULES of civility that Wheatie left for us:

Wheatie’s Rules:

  1. No food fights.
  2. No running with scissors.
  3. If you bring snacks, bring enough for everyone.

And while we engage in vigorous free speech, we will remember Wheatie’s advice on civility, non-violence, and site unity:

“We’re on the same side here so let’s not engage in friendly fire.”

“Let’s not give the odious Internet Censors a reason to shut down this precious haven that Wolf has created for us.”

If this site gets shut down, please remember various ways to get back in touch with the rest of the gang:

Our beloved country is under Occupation by hostile forces.

Daily outrage and epic phuckery abound.

We can give in to despair…or we can be defiant and fight back in any way that we can.

Joe Biden didn’t win.

And we will keep saying Joe Biden didn’t win until we get His Fraudulency out of our White House.

The Strategy I See Behind the New “Universal Vaccine Platform”

Some of you have to be asking yourselves why Robert F. Kennedy Jr. seems to have gone from being an opponent of vaccines, to being a proponent of them. I will try to explain.

To begin with, it helps to read the following document (H/T to PAVACA for producing these images). You can use this link, or the images below it.

HHS, NIH Launch Next-Generation Universal Vaccine Platform for Pandemic-Prone Viruses

LINK: https://www.hhs.gov/press-room/hhs-nih-announces-generation-gold-standard.html

It is hard for me to put into words, how much of a change this really is. But let me give you a quick “TL;DR” list of the big-ticket items.

  • Big Pharma is completely cut out of this platform – it’s US government owned and driven.
  • The vaccines are designed to be resistant to evolution of the pathogens they protect against. The vaxxes themselves are immune to “scariants”.
  • The vaccines completely abandon mRNA, cDNA, recombinant antigen, spike protein, lipid nanoparticle, and all genetic and related technologies.
  • The vaccines abandon Fauci’s always-failing strategy of targeting current variants, and instead seek to handle both current and future variants.
  • The result is fewer and less frequent shots. The better the shot, the more this is true.
  • The vaccines must pass rigorous safety standards, or otherwise fail to be approved.
  • The vaccines change direction and focus, from smaller subunits to whole-virus immunity.
  • The vaccines are potentially capable of inhibiting transmission.

IMO this is not just about changing the vaccines – it’s about changing minds in government science.

Most scientists, sadly, are sheep. They have neither the courage nor the inclination to challenge anything in the current scientific narrative – particularly as reported by our toxic media. If the media says “most scientists believe X”, then most scientists think this is true, and won’t bother to check, much less actively disagree.

The evil media has trained us all to believe certain myths.

  • There will be more and more exotic diseases coming at us from nature
  • There will need to be more and more vaccines, and more and more injections of them
  • Vaccines get better by using newer technology, not by working better for people
  • Vaccine hesitancy is a bad thing, and must be prevented at all costs
  • Vaccines are all safe, and rumors that any are bad, are dangerous

Apparently, despite the iron fist of Faucism, somebody in NIAID was thinking in ways that lead in the opposite direction from where Pfizer was taking us. I suspect that these forces sat tight, waited for “reinforcements to arrive” (Trump, RFKJ, and Dr. Jay), and had their proposal working up the chain of command as soon as Trump won.

Will this vaccine approach work? IMO it will work better than mRNA. Whether it works well enough to pass Kennedy’s new standard, based on comparison to placebos and true controls, is another question.

For the sake of those who still want vaccines, I hope so.

I suspect that these vaccines will be safer than mRNA, but not completely safe – particularly with a pathogen like COVID. As long as these vaccines are not mandated, I’m OK with their existence. In any case, the vaccines will have to prove themselves safe and effective.

Will I trust that determination?

Maybe. Or maybe not.

There are Important Notifications by 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: Yours Truly has checked today’s offering for any AI-generated content. To the best of her knowledge and belief, there is none. If readers wish to post anything in the discussion thread for today’s post that is AI-generated, they must cite their source. Thank you.

Due to the nature of today’s topic, there will be two separate posts. Part One, today’s offering, starts here: https://www.hhs.gov/press-room/hhs-nih-announces-generation-gold-standard.html, “HHS, NIH Launch Next-Generation Universal Vaccine Platform for Pandemic-Prone Viruses”, 1 May 2025. Please see the following screenshots from the announcement:

To unpack the announcement, Yours Truly will begin with a 2016 document from the EPA regarding beta-propiolactone, aka BPL (as in BPL-1357): https://www.epa.gov/sites/default/files/2016-09/documents/beta-propiolactone.pdf. Please see the following screenshots from this document:

Notice the risks associated with inhalation of beta-propiolactone (which is being used in the development and testing of the “new Gold Standard” intranasal version of the “new Universal Pandemic Vaccine”, BPL-1357.)

Note the language regarding irritations of various types; of damage to the corneas; convulsions; and “extreme acute toxicity.”

Note the language about cancer being induced in lab rats and mice by the use of beta-propiolactone, but no information being available regarding the inducement of cancer in humans by the use of beta-propiolactone.

The funds for Generation Gold Standard, in the amount of $500 million dollars, will come from reallocation of monies within BARDA (Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority: https://www.fiercebiotech.com/biotech/hhs-unveils-500m-universal-vaccine-initiative-calls-biden-era-covid-vax-accelerator, “HHS unveils $500M universal vaccine initiative, calls Biden-era COVID vax accelerator ‘wasteful'”, 1 May 2025. Please see the screenshots from this article, below:

Both Dr. Memoli and Dr. Taubenberger have been with the NIH / NIAID for years. Also, note the tiny subject pool of 45 adult subjects in the Phase 1 study of BPL-1357.

On a “tangential point”, there is this FDA announcement of 10 April 2025: https://www.fda.gov.media/186092/download, “Roadmap to Reducing Animal Testing in Preclinical Safety Studies”, by new FDA Director Dr. Marty Makary. Sasha Latypova analyzed the announcement here: https://sashalatypova.substack.com/p/you-didnt-want-that-mrna-vax-tested, “You didn’t want that mRNA vax tested only on 8 mice? Marty Makary, FDA, has a solution — no more mice!”, 28 April 2025.

That’s right. Dr. Makary wants to reduce, then end, animal testing for vaccines in the preclinical stage, and to substitute testing them instead by using in silico models; then, to move to human subject testing; and, even to NOT have ANY human subject clinical trials at all in “certain circumstances.” Please see the screenshots below from the Latypova article:

Yours Truly understands that the use of animals in lab experiments must be done in the most humane manner possible — no more of the “Fauci tortured Beagles” situations. However, one is of the opinion that there is a place for using animals in lab experiments — to study physical reactions and/or reproductive issues related to the drug or injectable under investigation before human tests begin: something that an in silico model or an AI model cannot do. And, the part about no clinical trials at all in “certain circumstances”:

Note: the red text in the screenshots above link to other articles and information from the Latypova article. Also, recall that Ms. Latypova worked in medical and pharmaceutical techology for years before retiring from the field.

This is the same Dr. Marty Makary who recommended that pregnant women get COVID-19 “vaccinated”:

To finish today’s Part One offering, Yours Truly presents the involvement of United States Defense Department in the use of the “AFLQ adjuvant” that is going to be tested in clinical trials for BPL-1357: https://hivresearch.org/hiv-research/alf-adjuvants. This is the United States military research program into “Military HIV.” This article had a link that led to the following press release by the United States Army, from 2021: https://wrair.health.mil/News-Media/Press-Releases/Article/3166852/phase-1-clinical-trial-of-wrair-developed-covid-19-vaccine-begins/, 5 April 2021. The clinical trial is NCT04784767, that began with 29 subject enrollees on 5 April 2021, and had an “Estimated Study Completion Date” of 30 October 2023 (https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT04784767.) The title of the clinical trial: “SARS-CoV-2 Spike Ferritin Nanoparticle Vaccine with ALFQ Adjuvant for Prevention of COVID-19 in Healthy Adults.” Below is a screenshot of the WRAIR article (WRAIR stands for Walter Reed Army Institute of Research):

Note the statement by Dr. Modjarrad that this “US Army COVID-19 Vaccine” would “pave the way for a universal vaccine to protect against not only the current virus, but also counter future variants…” — “universal vaccine” — sound familiar? “Who is driving this bus?” comes to mind.

To be continued in Part Two.

THERE. MUST. BE. JUSTICE.

Health Friday Open Thread 9.27.2024: Another Scientific Paper Is Under Attack For Telling The Truth About The COVID-19 “Vaccines”

The above image from an old medical-scientific journal is from PeopleImages, via Google Images.

This post is part of Health Friday, a series of offerings related to Big Pharma, vaccines, general health, and associated topics. The discussion is not limited to what is presented today; it is an Open Thread. However, since this presentation is about a COVID-19 “vaccine”, the post is dedicated to the memory of Yours Truly’s cousin Bill, who died “suddenly and unexpectedly” in September 2023.

To begin, there are Important Wolf Moon Notifications, with a couple of extra items:

Free Speech is practiced here: “Use it or lose it.”

The following are alternate Q Tree sites for certain circumstances:

The U Tree is for “argue it out” interactions. There is a “Featured” article at this site for use as a “Rescue Thread.”

The “third site”, in case the above two are inaccessible.

Civil discussion is practiced here. The excellent and timely Rules of our late, good Wheatie prevail:

One: No food fights.

Two: No running with scissors.

Three: If you bring snacks, bring enough for everyone.

Please follow the added Guidelines from Wolf Moon. Please do not give the modern-day version of Cato the Elder the opportunity to show “enmity” to the board.

The extra items: What Yours Truly presents in this series, as in her other blog posts to this board, is not medical advice — the are opinions and hypotheses based on her over 4 1/2 years (and continuing) of reading about, researching out, and writing about “all things COVID”, Big Pharma, and other health topics. Readers are encouraged to consult a healthcare practitioner regarding health concerns or conditions.

The Health Friday post today concerns the impending Retraction of a peer-reviewed and published paper that details long-term COVID-19 “vaccine”-induced injuries in North India. The paper was submitted to Springer for review and publishing on 9 January 2024; it was accepted (it had passed the peer-review process); and it was published on 13 May 2024. Here is a free-access version (to read the entire paper on Springer, one has to either access through an institution, or to pay for a copy): www.qeios.com/read/JK7IBA/pdf, “Long-Term Safety Analysis of the BBV152 Coronavirus Vaccine in Adolescents and Adults: Findings from a 1-Year Prospective Study in North India”, Upinder Kaur, et al., 13 May 2024. The study was conducted at Banaras Hindu University in India. BBV152 is another name for the COVAXIN COVID-19 “vaccine”, developed by Bharat BIotech of India in cooperation with Indian Council on Medical Research (ICMR) – National Institute of Virology. ICMR receives “royalty payments” for each dose of COVAXIN that is administered, as does Bharat Biotech (Sound familiar? — as in, the co-development, co-ownership of patents, and sharing of “royalty payments” between the NIAID and Moderna for the modRNA COVID-19, mRNA-1273?)

For purposes of today’s offering, the trail begins here: https://blog.maryannedemasi.com/p/breaking-journal-pressured-to-retract, 23 September 2024. Dr. Demasi has a PhD in Rheumatology from the University of Adelaide (Australia.)

The Kaur, et al., paper referenced above was published by Springer on 13 May 2024. Almost immediately, the attacks began on the paper, the authors, and the publisher — with articles like this one: https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/india/1-in-3-covaxin-recipients-hit-by-adverse-events-study/articleshow/110187284.cms, “1 in 3 Covaxin recipients hit by adverse events: Study”, 17 May 2024. On 18 May 2024, the ICMR demanded that Springer retract the paper (Yours Truly: nothing like causing panic in a government agency when the truth is published about a “vaccine” that the agency is pushing as “safe and effective,” especially when that agency is also getting “royalty payments” for the use of the “vaccine”, is there?). But, the attack on Springer and the authors didn’t end there. In July 2024, Bharat Biotech filed a lawsuit against Springer and the authors (some of the authors are students), demanding retraction of the paper and the payment of damages to Bharat Biotech of $600,000 US dollars (50 million Indian rupees.) In addition, the lawsuit accused the paper’s authors of defamation against the company, included with a demand for separate damages to be paid to the company for defamation. Despite sworn statements from the authors that no defamation was intended or written into the paper; and, despite the fact that Nitin Joshi, the editor of the Springer journal (Drug Safety) in which the study appeared, was one of the reviewers who approved the study for publishing, it was Joshi who notified the authors on 28 August 2024 that he was going to have the paper retracted. He confirmed this decision in an email to the authors on 17 September. However, as the defamation lawsuit is now in court, the study is still available on the internet.

What is BBV152/COVAXIN? It is an “inactivated whole virion vaccine” (whole virus vaccine) for “active immunization” against COVID-19. It is not an mRNA-based/modRNA-based COVID-19 “vaccine”, although it does use an “ancestral wave strain” of the original Wuhan Hu1 SARS-CoV-2 virus (in other words, a strain from the Wuhan Hu1 virus that occurred before the Beta, Delta, or Omicron strains.) The Package Insert for COVAXIN is here: www.bharatbiotech.com/images/covaxin/covaxin-pack-insert.pdf. Below is an image from the Package Insert:

Per Wikipedia, 363,774,435 persons in India had been “vaccinated” with at least one dose of COVAXIN as of 4 March 2023.

However, the COVAXIN Package Insert does not actually describe how the “vaccine” works (the “Mechanism of Action.”) Yours Truly found something along the lines of the necessary information here: www.clinicaltrialsarena.com/projects/covaxin-bbv152-for-the-treatment-of-covid-19/?cf-view&cf-closed, “COVAXIN (BBV152) for the Treatment of Covid-19, India”, 28 June 2022. Below is a screenshot from this article:

But, COVAXIN has been hailed by the Indian government about being “the first indigenous COVID-19 vaccine in India” (www.bharatbiotech.com/covaxin.html.) Why is ViroVax involved? (More on this later in the post.) Back to the Package Insert for COVAXIN. Below is a screenshot of the ingredients used in this “vaccine”:

Looking further into the ingredients list, starting with the NIV-2020-770 strain of SARS-CoV-2: please refer to this paper: www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7825810/, “Safety and immunogenicity of an inactivated SARS-CoV-2 vaccine, BBV152: a double-blind, randomised Phase 1 trial”, Krishna Mohan Vadrevu, et al., May 2021. It appears that NIV-2020-770 (the “inactivated whole virion”) is part of the Asp614Gly variant chain of the SARS-CoV-2 virus. The Asp614Gly variant itself is apparently part of the “ancestral wave” of the original Wuhan Hu1 SARS-CoV-2 virus; and, it is “not as serious” as the Beta or the Delta waves of the virus. Please refer to this article: www.thelancet.com/pdfs/journals/langlo/PIIS2214-109X(22)00199-1.pdf, Vol.10, July 2022, a Comment “Decoding the next SARS-CoV-2 variant”, by Jeremy Nel and WD Francois Venter. Below is a screenshot of a portion from the Comment:

Thus, BBV152/COVAXIN cannot be considered to be one of the “most recent” types of COVID-19 “vaccines”, as it does not include any elements before the Beta, Delta, or Omicron variants.

The Aluminium Hydroxide Gel in the ingredients (it is an “excipient” [“adjuvant]”): this is also called “Algel-IMDG” and “Alhydroxiqium-II” — in other words, it is a hydrogel. It was invented by ViroVax LLC of Lawrence, Kansas, under the aegis of the EpscoR Idea Foundation (part of the National Science Foundation in the United States), and with funding by the NIAID. This is the ViroVax / United States government connection. Here is a screenshot from an article by the EpscoR Idea Foundation on this “success story” (www.epscorideafoundation.org/success-stories/kansas-adjuvant-developed-with-nih-funding-enhances-efficacy-of-indias-covid-19-vaccine):

Note that Alhydroxiqium-II targets the lymph nodes of the person who takes COVAXIN. So, while this excipient is not exactly a lipid nanoparticle (LNP), it, in Yours Truly’s opinion, basically functions like an LNP in targeting the lymph nodes for delivery of the “vaccine payload” of COVAXIN; and, by “stimulating” the “vaccinated” person’s natural immune system to go and “search” for invading pathogens. By the way, Aluminium Hydroxide Gel is not to be used in foods, drugs pesticides, or “biocidal” products — see the screenshot below, from the search on Fisher Scientific (ThermoFisher) about this chemical, Page 1:

HOWEVER, it appears that FisherScientific had a “change of heart” since December 2021 regarding the “Uses advised against” for Aluminium Hydroxide — below is their MSDS Safety Sheet as of February 2024, Page 1:

Here is another source for an MSDS Safety Sheet, this one specifically for Aluminium Hydroxide Gel: www.oxfordlabfinechem.com/msds/ALUMINIUMHYDROXIDEGEL.pdf. Please see section 3 Hazards Identification; and section 11 Toxicological Information Special Remarks on Other Toxic Effects on Humans. Below is part of the Special Remarks portion of section 11:

The TLR7/8 excipient (adjuvant) in COVAXIN: This one is used in immunotherapy, including in the treatment of HIV-1. Please see: https://doi.org/10.3389/fmicb.2023.1033448, “Novel TLR7/8 agonists promote activation of HIV-1 latent reservoirs and human T and NK cells”, Yangyang Li, et al., 26 January 2023. This begs the question, Why is an HIV-1 immunotherapy treatment element being used in a COVID-19 “vaccine?” This also, in Yours Truly’s opinion, removes any consideration of COVAXIN to be labeled a “vaccine” — it is actually a gene therapy/immunotherapy injectable.

And, the 2-Phenoxyethanol excipient (adjuvant) in COVAXIN. Below is a screenshot portion of the Fisher Scientific (ThermoFisher) MSDS Safety Sheet for this chemical, Page 1:

The Kaur, et al., paper, goes into detail regarding the types of reported serious adverse events that affected the study subject pool who took COVAXIN. Three pages of the Supplementary Table 1. from the paper are below. Note that these are details from subjects one year after “vaccination” with COVAXIN. Note also that another paper from December 2020 (by different authors) shows that the S1 protein of the SARS-CoV-2 virus itself crosses the Blood-Brain Barrier.

If Yours Truly is reading about this situation correctly, it appears that one of the “problems” with the Kaur, et al., paper, is that the subject pool of COVAXIN-“vaccinated” persons in North India who reported serious adverse events following “vaccination” to the study authors was “small.” One has to ask: How many COVAXIN-“vaccine”-induced serious adverse events would need to be reported before they would be considered “relevant” by the Indian government and by Bharat BioTech? — say, a “minimum” of 3 million adverse events reports? Is it “within acceptable limits” that COVAXIN-“vaccinated” persons in North India suffer a stroke or a heart attack after “vaccination” with this product? Is this another situation of “the known and potential benefits outweigh the known and potential risks” of taking a COVID-19 “vaccine”, which is the “official” position of the CDC and the FDA in the United States?

Yours Truly has gone into detail regarding the situation with BBV152/COVAXIN for several reasons: First, to enumerate the multiple potentials for “vaccine”-induced serious adverse effects from this COVID-19 “vaccine” product; Second, to highlight the persecution of the authors of a paper who sought to study and write about these potentials; Third, to highlight the persecution of the journal that peer-reviewed, approved, and published the paper; Fourth, to bring to light the involvement of the United States government (via the NSF and the NIAID) in the funding and development of an ingredient (excipient/adjuvant) in this “vaccine” intended for use in a foreign country; and, Fifth, to again emphasize how important it is that consumers “do their own due diligence” regarding information on drugs and/or injectables that they put into their bodies.
