Study Confirms: Natural Immunity Outperforms COVID Vaccines

A study from Estonia suggests that natural immunity provides stronger and longer-lasting protection against COVID-19 infection, symptoms, and hospitalization compared to COVID-19 shots. The article criticizes the promises made by health officials regarding the effectiveness of vaccines, citing examples of vaccinated individuals, including President Biden and Dr. Anthony Fauci, testing positive for COVID-19. It also highlights the changing definitions of vaccine and vaccination by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) to downplay the promise of immunity. The article concludes by mentioning the issue of vaccine mandates.

Controversial laws signed by DeSantis in Florida.

Florida Governor Ron DeSantis signed a bill that prohibits businesses, government agencies, and schools from mandating COVID-19 tests, vaccines, or masks. The bill also allows healthcare providers to deny services based on "conscience-based objections" and prohibits hospitals from interfering with patients' choice of COVID-19 treatment alternatives. The Florida Department of Health and the Agency for Health Care Administration will develop standards for the appropriate use of facial coverings in healthcare facilities. The attorney general's office and Department of Health can levy fines up to $5,000 for each violation of the mandate prohibitions.

COVID-19 Vaccination: Considerations for Different Patient Populations.

With the waning efficacy of COVID-19 vaccines against new variants, some experts are questioning the continued use of vaccine mandates. While vaccines still offer strong protection against severe disease, mandates may undermine public trust in institutions and discourage people from getting further shots. Some researchers suggest that mandates should be updated to require recent vaccinations or evidence of recent infection. Many organizations are reviewing or revising their vaccine policies as the end of the U.S. COVID-19 emergency declaration approaches.
