CDC-Funded Study of 99 Million COVID-Vaccinated People Finds ‘Very Rare Adverse Events’

A global study of over 99 million people found increased risks of several serious adverse events following COVID-19 vaccination. However, the researchers concluded the conditions were very rare and the benefits of vaccination still outweigh the risks.
Researchers from the New Zealand-based Global COVID Vaccine Safety project conducted the study, published Feb. 12 in the journal Vaccine, with funding from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS).
The observational study pooled data on people who received the Pfizer or Moderna mRNA vaccines or the Oxford AstraZeneca adenovirus vector vaccine across 10 sites in eight countries in Europe, the Americas, Australia and Asia.
Scientists calculated post-vaccination rates of neurological, cardiovascular and other outcomes occurring up to 42 days after the shots and compared them to background rates before the pandemic.
The researchers found increased risks for myocarditis, pericarditis, Guillain-Barré syndrome and cerebral venous sinus thrombosis (CVST), noting this confirmed similar findings in previous research. The study also identified other safety signals of concern.

AT&T’s cellular network began experiencing major service problems for customers across the United States early on Thursday morning. Wireless customers took to the carrier’s forums, Reddit, and elsewhere to report that they’d lost all voice and mobile data service — with some of those impacted unable to reach 911 emergency services.
FirstNet, the AT&T-powered communications network used by some first responders and health providers, also appears to be affected by the disruptions, but it’s unclear to what degree.
“We are aware of an outage currently impacting our mobility users and are working to resolve it ASAP,” the company wrote in a banner notification on its support forum. AT&T is encouraging customers to use Wi-Fi calling where possible while it works to restore full service.

The latest version of Google’s Gemini artificial intelligence (AI) will frequently produce images of Black, Native American and Asian people when prompted – but refuses to do the same for White people.
In a statement to Fox News Digital, Gemini Experiences Senior Director of Product Management Jack Krawczyk addressed the responses from the AI that had led social media users to voice concern.
“We’re working to improve these kinds of depictions immediately,” Krawczyk said. “Gemini’s AI image generation does generate a wide range of people. And that’s generally a good thing because people around the world use it. But it’s missing the mark here.”

A Tennessee company that provides cleaning services for animal slaughterhouses has employed people as young as 13 years old to clean dangerous equipment on overnight shifts in violation of federal law, according to a court document filed on Wednesday.
The filing by the U.S. Department of Labor accused Fayette Janitorial Service LLC of Memphis of employing 15 underaged workers to clean a Perdue Farms poultry plant in Virginia and nine at a Seaboard Triumph Foods pork-processing plant in Iowa.
The equipment cleaned by the young people included machines used to split the heads of slaughtered animals and bandsaws to cut meat. It is unlawful to hire anyone under age 18 to do such work, the Labor Department said.
Feds Charge Japanese Yakuza Leader with Nuclear Materials Trafficking
February 21st, 2024Weapons-grade plutonium!? That’s a big deal, if true. Where did that come from?
Via: CNBC:
Federal prosecutors in New York on Wednesday said they had charged a Japanese Yakuza leader with conspiring to traffic nuclear materials from Burma to other countries.
Prosecutors said the accused gangster Takeshi Ebisawa “and his confederates showed samples of nuclear materials in Thailand” to an undercover agent from the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration.
“With the assistance of Thai authorities, the nuclear samples were seized and subsequently transferred to the custody of U.S. law enforcement,” the U.S. Attorney’s Office in Manhattan said in a statement.
“A U.S. nuclear forensic laboratory later analyzed the samples and confirmed that the samples contain uranium and weapons-grade plutonium,” the statement said.
NYC Mayor To Give Migrants Debit Cards Worth Up To $10,000
February 21st, 2024Via: NY Post:
It takes money to make money, as the old saying goes, and apparently, it also takes money — as much as $53 million — to give money away.
Earlier this month, The Post broke the story that Mayor Eric Adams is giving out pre-paid cash cards to migrants.
Unusually for the mayor, Adams didn’t publicize this story himself, and his administration for nearly a month has failed to correct several public misperceptions about it.
One misperception is that the program allows the city to give out just $50 million to migrants.
No wonder the mayor has been reticent.
This debit card program — if you read the actual contract — has the potential to become an open-ended, multibillion-dollar Bermuda Triangle of disappearing, untraceable cash, used for any purpose.
It will give migrants up to $10,000 each in taxpayer money with no ID check, no restrictions and no fraud control.

Japan Bets $67 Billion to Become a Global Chip Powerhouse Once Again
February 21st, 2024Via: Bloomberg:
Deep in the snowy northern island of Hokkaido, Japan is pouring billions of dollars into a long-shot bet to revive its chip-making prowess and insulate its economy from growing US-China tensions.
…
A freshly created homegrown venture, Rapidus Corp., is looking to mass produce state-of-the art 2 nanometer logic chips in 2027 from an initial starting point of zero. By industry standards it’s an implausible challenge for an 18-month-old venture in a country that has fallen far behind overseas rivals on semiconductor production.But with the US and China sparring over access to the latest chipmaking expertise and equipment, Japan’s government has sensed an opportunity to leverage Washington’s concern over supply chain security to get back into a game it once dominated.
