who GAF?

did rush Limbaugh expose global human trafficking? epstein, etc? The federal reserve/BIS debt enslavement system? anything? Nope.

 

Yet did he know of all of these things? Of course, thus… no fucks given for him and everyone else who knows, has a platform, and chooses not to expose. Which is pretty much everyone famous or in politricks/medea.

 

these 'heroes' assist and enable the illusion

How one rabid kitten triggered intensive effort to contain deadly virus

https://www.yahoo.com/news/one-rabid-kitten-triggered-intensive-220030768.html

 

At first, Madeline Wahl thought her new kitten was having a bad reaction to medication for ringworm. After each dose, he would shake his head and flail his legs.

 

She and her husband, Rich, had brought the kitten to their house in a historic neighborhood in Omaha, Neb., after a friend found the stray meowing in her driveway. About 5 weeks old and barely two pounds, the cuddly black-and-white animal looked like he was wearing a tuxedo. The Wahls named him Stanley.

 

Subscribe to The Post Most newsletter for the most important and interesting stories from The Washington Post.

 

But, within two days, Stanley stopped eating and developed seizures. Then he stopped breathing; Wahl's husband resuscitated him with chest compressions.

 

Wahl rushed him to a veterinarian, who noted that the kitten's pupils were different sizes. The vet listed nearly two dozen possible causes, including a common parasitic disease, for the animal's abnormal behavior. Last on her list was rabies, which she assured Wahl was rare in domesticated animals. "We haven't had rabies in forever," Sharon Mix, the vet, said.

 

The tiny feline died the next day. Test results 48 hours later showed Stanley did, indeed, have rabies. Additional genetic sequencing showed something even more alarming: The kitten had a strain of raccoon rabies that had never been detected west of the Appalachian Mountains. How did it pop up 850 miles from where the variant normally circulates in the eastern United States? And how far had it spread?

 

"My first thought was, 'It has to be a mistake,'" said Ryan Wallace, who heads the rabies epidemiology team at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

 

The mystery sparked a broad emergency response showcasing how disease detectives work to figure out the origins of a lethal infection while trying to ensure people don't get sick or die.

 

The stakes were high. If the virus were able to spread unchecked in raccoons, transmission would easily radiate out from Omaha to surrounding areas, because there aren't many large mountain chains, rivers or deserts in that part of the country to act as natural barriers, Wallace said. The CDC estimates that the virus would expand in concentric circles at about 24 miles a year. Over five years, the rabies strain would make its way to South Dakota, Minnesota, Iowa, Missouri and Kansas, he said, putting an estimated 7 million residents at increased risk.

 

More than a dozen wildlife biologists drove to Omaha from eight states, as far away as Vermont and New Hampshire, hauling trailers full of traps, injectable rabies vaccine, gallons of anise oil and cases of marshmallows - to lure, trap and vaccinate raccoons in hopes of stopping the deadly virus from spreading. CDC scientists set up labs in trailers to test roadkill for the virus.

 

Douglas County health officials tracked down 10 people, including the Wahls, their friend and veterinary staffers who had been scratched or bitten by the kitten so that they could receive four doses of rabies vaccine and one dose of human rabies immune globulin to neutralize the virus, treatment that can cost up to $8,000 per person. The officials also posted queries on social media, and volunteers fanned out in neighborhoods to seek information about other sightings of the kitten, possible litter mates, or the mother of the litter.

 

"We've never had a nine-alarm fire like this," said Richard Chipman, the coordinator of the national rabies program at the U.S. Department of Agriculture.

Signs of rabies

 

Rabies is caused by a virus that infects the central nervous system in mammals and is nearly always fatal if untreated. The virus that killed Stanley, the kitten, is transmitted readily among raccoons, animals that frequent backyards, trash cans and farm fields, where they have a greater chance of coming into contact with people.

 

People in the United States rarely contract rabies - with only one to three cases reported annually - but about 60,000 Americans receive post-exposure treatment each year after being bitten or scratched by infected animals or by animals suspected of being infected, according to the CDC.

 

More than 90 percent of reported U.S. rabies cases in animals occur in wildlife, most commonly raccoons, skunks, bats and foxes. Animals with rabies may be aggressive and try to bite, or they may be seen to drool more than normal. Others may act timidly or appear to be tame, move slowly, or allow humans to get close - unusual behavior for wild animals that also could be a sign of something wrong. Another sign: different-size pupils.

After Stanley's death, USDA wildlife biologists spent 10 days trapping and vaccinating animals - 753 raccoons, 41 skunks, four feral cats and one red fox - in an area about 61 miles around where the kitten was found. To attract the raccoons - and not other animals that are not reservoirs for the virus - they baited the traps with anise oil, which smells like black licorice, and marshmallows. Raccoons like the smell and taste of marshmallows, which resemble the chicken eggs they like to eat.

 

USDA, state and local officials also placed 18,000 vaccine packets in parks, along storm drains, around trees and bushes, and near walking paths in the woods in a five-mile radius. The oral rabies vaccine baits come in two-inch sachets similar to a ketchup packet and are coated with fishmeal to attract raccoons.

 

"As they chew on it, they are bathing their mouth and tonsils with the vaccine, and that starts the immune reaction," Chipman said.

 

Federal officials have been trying to control the spread of rabies in raccoons using the oral vaccine since 1997. The USDA drops about 10 million doses of oral rabies vaccine a year from planes and helicopters in a band of 16 states stretching from Maine to Ohio and south to Alabama and Texas. The goal is to stop the spread of the raccoon rabies beyond this "hot zone," officials said.

 

The combined surveillance and vaccination efforts of the CDC, USDA and state health departments have contributed to a 50 percent reduction in the number of rabid raccoons in the United States, Wallace said.

 

The vaccine distribution program typically reaches about 30 to 40 percent of an area's raccoon population, Chipman said. But Omaha has a large number of raccoons, with density as high as 104 raccoons per square mile in some parts of the city, he said.

Stopping the spread

 

Officials won't know until early next year whether they have stopped the virus from spreading. The incubation period of the virus ranges from one week to three months. Stanley was discovered Sept. 26, so if other animals had been bitten or scratched, they might not show symptoms until December.

 

The ultimate measure of whether the efforts have worked is through the testing of dead animals for the virus. Testing in Omaha is limited by how many dead raccoons animal control, the local humane society and wildlife rehabilitation groups turn over to scientists. On the basis of what officials have seen happen in the East Coast, between 1 and 5 percent of dead animals should be testing positive for rabies if the virus has gained a foothold in the Omaha area. So far, none of the more than 250 dead animals tested have had the virus.

 

"If we can test [a total] of 500 animals over the next few months through this surveillance program and all are negative, then there is likely no spread in local wildlife," Wallace said. "We won't know for sure until around February."

 

Officials credit the pet owners' quick action, the astuteness of the veterinarian who recognized the need to have the kitten tested, and the input of a state lab that was recently awarded CDC funding to conduct the genetic sequencing that prompted the emergency response.

 

It remains unclear how Stanley became infected.

 

One possibility is that the virus had been spreading undetected in the Omaha area and that a wild animal had bitten and infected the kitten. But a decade of rabies surveillance in states between Ohio and Nebraska had found no rabies cases, according to the CDC.

 

More likely, officials said, the kitten - or a pregnant cat - was bitten and infected by a raccoon in the southeastern United States, where the virus most closely resembles the genetic fingerprint found in Stanley. Then the kitten or his mother somehow made their way to Omaha.

 

"Had my husband not resuscitated him," Madeline Wahl said, "we likely would have buried the kitten in our yard and not known about him being rabies positive."

Abstract

A nine-year-old boy died from rabies encephalitis caused by a rabies virus variant associated with insectivorous bats. The patient was most likely infected in the Laurentian Mountains of western Quebec, but neither the patient nor his parents remembered any direct contact with an animal. The diagnosis was made seven days after the start of symptoms. After examining the most recent cases of rabies in North America, it is obvious that rabies following bat exposure can occur without history of a documented bite. The present case report emphasizes that the general public and medical care providers need better information about the risks associated with exposure to bats.

 

If not destroyed at the site of infection, the neurotropic virus migrates centrally via peripheral unmyelinated nerves at a rate estimated between 10 and 400 mm/day (10). Once in nervous tissue, the virus is protected from the immune system, making immunization inefficient. The incubation period usually lasts between 20 and 90 days, but intervals as short as four days or as long as 19 years have been reported (7).

Stamford reps reject 5G agreement, citing safety worries: 'This may cause harm'

 

https://www.stamfordadvocate.com/local/article/stamford-5g-at-t-verizon-agreement-18477750.php

 

STAMFORD — Stamford’s Board of Representatives have rejected a federally regulated plan to install 5G telecommunications infrastructure on city-owned utility poles, citing environmental health concerns.

 

Twenty-one of the city legislature’s 40 members on Wednesday voted against the agreement with the nation’s two largest wireless companies, AT&T and Verizon, despite guidance from city officials thatlocal regulation of the matter is preempted by federal law. Five representatives voted in favor of it, while eight abstained — some saying they weren’t property informed on the issue.

 

Under the rejected pact, Stamford would have agreed to terms to install 5G conduits known as small cells on utility poles in the municipal right of way.

 

“If there’s the smallest of chances — even the smallest — that this may cause harm, I don’t see any reason why we should be passing this forward,” Rep. Jeffrey Stella, D-9, said.

 

Lauren Meyer, a special assistant to Mayor Caroline Simmons, saidboard members were informed they had little authority to limit 5G rollout.

 

"The Law Department presented the Board of Representatives' Land Use Committee with an extensive memorandum of law explaining thatmunicipal legislatures are without authority to legislate on issues of the alleged health risks of radio frequency radiation emitted by 5G apparatuses, as that issue is pre-empted by federal law," she wrote in an emailed statement. "The city has not yet determined a future course of action."

 

5G is the fifth-generation of cellular network technology. Wireless companies have been racing for nearly a decade to develop the technology, which offers internet speeds that allow smartphones to download entire movies in seconds. Officials say its widespread adoption could also make high-speed internet more broadly accessible across the map, eliminating dead spots.

 

The technology emits higher frequencies of radiation than previous cellular technology, though, the extent of which — and how it impacts humans and wildlife — is still being investigated. The Food and Drug Administration and World Health Organization say no adverse health impacts have been “causally linked” to 5G, but only a few studies have so far been carried out.

 

Foreshadowing the full board’s vote was its Land Use and Urban Redevelopment Committee meeting on Oct. 18, at which all but one committee member recommended denial of the agreement.

 

At the meeting, the committee invited six people who have researched 5G and health impacts related to radiation, all of whom said they had concerns about how safe 5G is. The most common form of 5G is called mid-band, and it uses around 2.4-4.2 gigahertz, a measuring unit for processing speeds. However, some small cells also transmit frequencies that are higher, which at least one of the presenters to the commission said caused concerns.

 

It became clear early on during Wednesday night’s meeting that the agreement was going to fail.

 

Many representatives came out against the agreement, even after colleagues opined that rejecting it could invite a lawsuit.

 

This year, Connecticut’s capital settled a court battle with AT&T. The telecom giant sued Hartford in 2021 for refusing to act for over four years on AT&T’s requests for authorizations and permits to install wireless devices on city-owned light poles.

 

A 2018 ruling by the Federal Communications Commission — which facilitates 5G deployment — prevented state or municipal action that would impede or delay the roll-out of 5G technology. It has been challenged by a number of states but upheld in federal court.

 

“I’m just not willing to take a gamble with my four kids living in this city and my constituents’ children living in this city without some type of concrete consensus. I don’t understand why our country can’t get our act together on this issue. It’s not like we don’t have the intellect and the scientific capability to do this, but every time you throw money into the issue, all of a sudden, health takes a backseat,” Rep. Sean Boeger, D-15, said.

Rep. Don Mays, D-19, said the experts who spoke before the land use committee only provided one side of the issue. Mays, who, before retiring, worked as Chief Safety Officer for Samsung Electronics America, asked board members to send the item back to committee so a wider range of experts could present. A majority of board members voted down the suggestion.

 

The committee’s chair, Rep. Bradley Bewkes, R-1, said the speakers asked Burt Rosenberg, the city’s assistant corporation counsel, if he wanted to invite speakers to offer differing opinions on the issue.

 

That wasn’t a “proper legislative function,” said Rep. Jonathan Jacobson, D-12.

 

Mays asked his colleagues to put the radiofrequency risks “in perspective.”

 

He noted that smartphones, such as iPhones, emit radiation themselves. In September, French regulators asked Apple to stop selling the iPhone 11, which, when tested, gave off electromagnetic radiation levels above European Union standards.

 

“I don’t think I know of anybody willing to give up their cell phones. We’ve become dependent on them,” Mays said.

 

Mays also asked his colleagues to consider the benefits of 5G, such as being able to extend coverage to parts of the city that are currently dead spots, which he said could help with calls to emergency services.

 

“I’ll never tell you that I think there’s no risk because I think there is a certain level of risk, but I truly believe it’s very small,” Mays said. “But the fact is that if we’re going to try to fight the federal government on this, be prepared taxpayers. Because, boy, it’s going to cost you.”

 

Some representatives called attention to Rep. Jennifer Matheny, D-19, who lives in Mays’ same district and had difficulties connecting to the internet to speak during the Zoom meeting. Matheny rebuffed the concerns.

 

“I’m not ready to give up my health for a clear phone call,” Matheny said.

TL;DR, EV driving is the cost equivalent of $17/gallon

 

Study determines the astronomical true cost of electric vehicle ownership

 

https://www.thestreet.com/electric-vehicles/electric-vehicle-tesla-adoption-curve-cost

 

The electric vehicle story seems to have changed lately from an expectation of rapid adoption and frantic production to a reality of cooling interest and pullbacks in investments.

 

General Motors (GM) - Get Free Report pushed back its EV targets and postponed its coming EV lineup in what it called an effort to ensure profitability; Ford (F) - Get Free Report postponed $12 billion in EV investments; Hertz is slowing the electrification of its fleets, in part citing weak resale value; and Tesla (TSLA) - Get Free Report remains engaged in a price war meant to entice skeptical buyers.

 

Widespread adoption seems to have hit something of a snag.

 

While some data show that EV adoption is on the rise, with EV sales making up a record 7.9% of total industry sales in the third quarter, consumer interest is still flagging.

 

Polling from S&P Global Mobility found in May that only 67% of respondents are open to buying an EV, a significant reduction from the 86% of respondents that were open to such a purchase in 2021.

 

While EV adoption might be increasing, the growth in the sector is slowing as consumer concerns over both price and range cool interest.

 

Price biggest hurdle to EV adoption: S&P

It's no coincidence that Tesla remains so committed to slashing its prices; the biggest pressure point in the transition to EVs, according to S&P, is price.

 

"Multiple hurdles need to be cleared to achieve widespread EV adoption," S&P wrote. "Buyers may want to wait for the next technological advance, or have concerns about charging time and charger availability, but in the end, consumer finances — not engineering — lead the current buying resistance to EVs."

 

Part of the gap in the adoption curve additionally involves differences between early adopters and the masses.

 

Jeremy Michalek, Carnegie Mellon professor of engineering and public policy, told TheStreet in August that the early adopters tend to have garages, meaning they can charge their EVs overnight and at home. For the second, larger wave of adopters who don't have access to overnight charging, better charging infrastructure, more robust batteries and longer vehicle range are key concerns.

 

EV ownership equates to $17 a gallon: Texas group

An October report by the Texas Public Policy Foundation found that, after accounting for all of the hidden costs involved in owning an EV, that price becomes much more significant than an internal combustion engine vehicle.

 

The foundation is a conservative think tank that according to 2012 tax filings was funded predominantly by Exxon Mobil, Chevron and the Koch brothers. The organization, according to the New York Times, has been attempting for years to promote fossil fuels while inciting a pullback in America's transition to renewable energy.

 

The group has campaigned against green energy, and last year an executive at the organization tweeted: "Today, I’m thankful to live a high-carbon lifestyle and wish the rest of the world could too. Energy poverty = poverty. Decarbonization is dangerous and deadly."

 

The group's report adds up the costs of government subsidies, charging equipment and the added strain on the electric grid, claiming that the "true cost of fueling an EV would equate to an EV owner paying $17.33 per gallon of gasoline."

 

When ICE owners pay for a gallon of gasoline, the report says, they are paying for the "entire infrastructure to refine, transport and market that gasoline."

 

"When an EV owner connects to the electric grid, how much are they paying for the extra generation, transmission, and distribution costs that they are imposing on the grid, and will those embedded costs rise over time?"

 

The report identifies three different areas of hidden EV ownership costs: the first deals with direct subsidies, such as the $7,500 federal tax credit. The second deals with indirect subsidies, notably an avoidance of state and federal fuel taxes.

 

This, the report says, is problematic as such taxes are used to fund road construction and maintenance; since EVs are heavier than comparable ICE vehicles, EV owners ought to be paying more in fuel taxes, rather than less.

 

A component of this indirect subsidy deals with the extra costs placed on the electric grid by EVs.

 

"Generation, transmission, distribution and overhead costs for utilities are all affected by EVs, and it is crucial for the future of the electric grid that EVs charge at times that reduce demand volatility rather than increase it as is often the case today," the report says.

The positive view of EV adoption

Consumer Reports, however, found in May that electrifying the entire U.S. light-duty vehicle fleet by 2050 would require less than 1% growth per year in electricity generation. The report found that if 25% of the entire U.S. passenger vehicle fleet was electric by 2032, the grid could meet that demand by only experiencing a 6% growth in electricity generation.

 

Lindsay Buckley, spokesperson for the California Energy Commission, said last year that EV charging accounted for less than 1% of the grid's total load during peak hours. By 2030, that number is expected to be around 5%, a “small amount” of added demand.

While highlighting electrification subsidies, the report ignores those subsidies that exist for fossil fuels. According to an August study by the International Monetary Fund, fossil fuel subsidies surged to a record $7 trillion last year.

 

The IMF projected that if these existing fossil fuel subsidies were scrapped, 1.6 million premature deaths could be prevented and the world could get a little closer to achieving its global warming targets.

 

"If governments removed explicit subsidies and imposed corrective taxes, fuel prices would increase," the IMF wrote. "This would lead firms and households to consider environmental costs when making consumption and investment decisions. The result would be cutting global carbon-dioxide emissions significantly, cleaner air, less lung and heart disease, and more fiscal space for governments."

 

The final category of the foundation's report involves regulatory electrification and emissions mandates.

 

Combined, the report found that these hidden costs add around $48,000 to the cost of an average model-year 2021 EV over 10 years.

 

Even with recently slashed prices and tax incentives, the report said, EVs will remain more expensive than their internal-combustion-engine counterparts for years without "increased and sustained government favors."

 

A key component of EV costs revolves around their battery components. And while EVs are generally a greener solution to travel (depending on the energy makeup of the grid they charge on), the raw materials needed to make their batteries are somewhat problematic.

 

Both cobalt and lithium have been linked to environmental concerns and human rights issues, according to the Times. Mining cobalt produces hazardous slag that leaches into the surrounding environment; mining lithium uses an enormous amount of groundwater.

 

Toyota, which remains staunchly committed to hybrids, said in May that the same raw material used for one long-range EV could instead be used to produce 90 hybrids. The overall carbon reduction of those hybrids, according to Toyota, would be 37 times higher than that of a single EV.

Now MASSACHUSETTS follows county in Ohio and says it's being hit by wave of 'white lung' pneumonia in children - after China and Europe saw surge in cases and hospitalizations

 

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/health/article-12809869/us-child-pneumonia-outbreak-extremely-high-cases.html

 

Doctors in parts of Massachusetts and Ohio are reporting a spike in child pneumonia cases similar to the outbreak spreading in China and parts of Europe.

 

In Warren County, just 30 miles outside Cincinnati, there have been 142 pediatric cases of the condition — dubbed 'white lung syndrome' — since August.

 

Health officials there described that figure as 'extremely high'.

 

'Not only is this above the county average, it also meets the Ohio Department of Health definition of an outbreak,' the county's health department said Wednesday.

 

Meanwhile, in western Massachusetts, physicians are seeing 'a whole lot' of walking pneumonia, a milder form of the lung condition.

 

Neither outbreak is being caused by a novel pathogen and not all of the pneumonia cases are the result of a single infection. Instead, experts say a mixture of seasonal bacterial and viral bugs are hitting at once.

 

It has raised fears that the outbreak that has overwhelmed hospitals China could hit the US this winter. Several European countries are battling similar crises.

 

The above shows a pediatric hospital in California in January 2021, when hospitals in the US were hit by a wave of sick children

 

But a source at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) told DailyMail.com that, nationally, 'nothing is out of the ordinary'.

 

An 'ongoing investigation' is underway in Ohio into what is triggering the wave of illness, but officials do not think it is a new respiratory disease — and instead blame a mixture of several common infections all hitting at once.

 

Patients in the county - which is home to around 200,000 people - have tested positive for mycoplasma pneumoniae, a bacterial lung infection for which some antibiotics are useless, adenovirus, a normally benign respiratory infections, and strep.

 

The average age of patients is eight, though some are as young as three.

 

There are several theories, one of which is that children's immunity has been weakened by lockdowns, mask-wearing and school closures during the pandemic — leaving them more vulnerable to seasonal illnesses.

 

Bacterial respiratory infections usually flare up every five years, normally as people are recovering from a wave of flu or other viral illnesses.

 

Most infections are mild, doctors say, but those who have recently recovered from a respiratory infection are at higher risk.

 

In a release from the Warren County Health District, officials said: 'We do not think this is a novel/new respiratory disease, but rather a large uptick in the number of pneumonia cases normally seen at one time.'

It added: 'As we approach the holiday season, when many of us will be gathering together with family and friends, please remember to take necessary precautions to protect your health.

 

'Wash your hands, cover your cough, stay home when ill and stay up to date on vaccines.'

 

Doctors say patients are mostly suffering from a fever, cough and fatigue.

 

It is unclear if any deaths have resulted from the illness and officials have not responded to requests for more information.

The above patient was a 57-year-old man who was infected with the flu and had non-hodgkin's lymphoma, or a cancer of the white blood cells, back in 2014

Dr John Kelley, from Redwood Pediatrics in western Massachusetts, said they were seeing a spike in pediatric hospitalizations in their area

In Massachusetts, doctors say the main issue is RSV, a respiratory virus that kills more than 10,000 Americans each year, mostly young children and the elderly.

 

Dr John Kelley, from Redwood Pediatrics in East Longmeadow, told Western Mass News: 'This is the season for RSV and we're seeing a whole lot of it… a lot of kids with upper viral respiratory infections, cough, runny nose, some fevers and the thinking with RSV is that it can cause lower viral respiratory infections, so they get spread to your lungs.'

 

He said 80 percent of the kids with 'walking pneumonia' develop the infection as a result of first having RSV, while the remaining 20 percent of the cases are usually attributed to bacteria, which can be treated with antibiotics.

In Ohio, the county was first alerted to the spike after schools said they were recording more children off sick than normal.

 

The 142 cases were reported to the county from multiple school districts across their area. There are 12 school districts in Warren County, Ohio.

 

A spokeswoman for the county health department said this was the first year they had recorded a pneumonia outbreak.

She added that other indicators were showing 'typical resporatory pathogen [spread] for this time of year'.

 

A spokeswoman for the Ohio Health Department added that statewide they were not recording 'unusual numbers of respiratory disease outbreaks for this time of year'.

 

CDC data also shows pneumonia fatalities are not surging out of the ordinary for this time of year nationwide.

 

Data on deaths from pneumonia and the flu among children and teenagers which they record shows the figures are at typical levels for this time of year.

 

Speaking to local reporters, Warren County's medical director Dr Clint Koenig said: 'We have seen hospitalizations [for child pneumonia] tick up in the last couple of weeks so we do ask parents to be vigilant.

 

'Our school districts have called in starting roughly in August, but really picking up in mid to late October.

 

'We've also been noticing a lot of cases of kids being absent and the resulting diagnosis being pneumonia.'

 

A source at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) said their data showed childhood pneumonia levels in other states were following 'seasonal trends'.

 

'Nothing is flagging out of the ordinary, but we are continuing to monitor,' they said.

 

Mycoplasma pneumoniae normally causes a mild flu-like illness, sometimes called 'walking pneumonia'. Cases are most common in younger children.

 

Some antibiotics, such as penicillin, have no effect.

 

Dr Amesh Adalja, from Johns Hopkins University, cautioned it was important not to attach too much to just one outbreak in Ohio

Dr Scott Roberts, from Yale, said this may be another sign that children still have weaker immunity than before the pandemic

Strep also normally causes a mild illness and tends to leave patients with sore throats. It's more common among those aged five to 15 years old.

 

And adenovirus, which has also been detected in patients, causes symptoms similar to the common cold.
