This week, Mary Holland, Children’s Health Defense (CHD) president on leave, and Polly Tommey, CHD.TV programming manager, covered the latest headlines on COVID-19, Big Pharma and other issues, including the resignation of Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) Director Rochelle Walensky — ending her contentious reign over COVID-19 vaccine policies.

Polly and Mary also discussed Chelsea Clinton’s massive vaccination campaign. This initiative, nicknamed “The Big Catch-up,” is a partnership with the World Health Organization (WHO), the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, UNICEF and others — a “targeted global effort to boost vaccination among children following the declines driven by the COVID-19 pandemic.” Viewers are invited to participate in CHD.TV’s campaign to help expose the harms of childhood immunizations. Send in photos and stories of your family’s vaccine injuries with the hashtag #CaughtUp.

Plus, the WHO ended the COVID-19 pandemic emergency. Mary reminded viewers that the global emergency remained in place “for more than three years” and there’s a relentless push to prepare for “the next pandemic.”

Also on tap this week: What is One Health, and how does it threaten our privacy? According to expert correspondence in the article, this operation “has more to do with a biosecurity agenda, a global surveillance system, vaccine passports and restrictions on human behavior than it has to do with protecting human health.”

More of this week’s highlights:

  • Josephine Jean Fillier, who lived a fulfilling life as a stay-at-home mother of three young children in Newfoundland, Canada, before getting the Pfizer shot, was injured within hours of getting the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine.
  • In a new study, 80% of teens did not recover after six months of being diagnosed with vaccine-associated myocarditis. What does this mean for permanent scarring of the heart and future cardiac arrest? “This is what happens when you do a medical experiment on large numbers of people,” asserted Mary.
  • Novavax is forecasted to earn higher revenue than Wall Street originally expected. This COVID-19 vaccine manufacturer saw a 40% rise in shares this year and plans to launch “an updated COVID shot this fall” and a flu-COVID-19 combination vaccine, both contributing to the company’s anticipated $1.4 to $1.6 billion 2023 revenue.
  • Children’s rights advocates are speaking out against Mark Zuckerberg and Meta’s “Horizon Worlds” virtual reality metaverse platform, which targets children and teenagers. “We’ve got to help these children from being brainwashed,” Polly said.
  • Should we be concerned about a ban on meat consumption? Strategies are underway that could remove animal protein from the food supply, which ultimately is a threat to human health.
  • In another food-related story, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration granted “investigational” approval for pork products created by a research team at Washington State University who have been experimenting on pigs using gene-editing technology. “Food, like water and air, shouldn’t be patented,” stated Mary.
  • Farms are under threat in Europe. Dutch farmers who sell their land “are no longer allowed to farm anywhere within the European Union.”
  • While some are selling their farmland, others are getting into the bug-raising business. The promoted “green agenda” seeks not only to normalize the eating of insects but also cannibalism in the form of lab-grown human steak and salami made from celebrity flesh.
  • Scientists warned that chemicals found in common disinfectants are linked to asthma, birth defects and infertility. Soap and water are recommended as safer alternatives.
  • In New York, an investigation found that safety agents and other police officers are forcibly removing students as young as 5 from schools for mental health concerns, then turning them over to EMTs who take them in for psychiatric evaluations in hospital emergency rooms.
  • Many schools and professional sports facilities utilize artificial turf, which is full of toxic chemicals. Rare and aggressive brain cancers led to the deaths of six baseball players who played on a field containing a number of synthetic substances. “They’re gonna keep doing it because they’re making money,” Mary contended.
