This week, Mary Holland, Children’s Health Defense (CHD) president, and Polly Tommey, CHD.TV programming manager, covered the latest headlines on COVID-19, Big Pharma and other issues, including news that the Biden administration announced its plans to shift COVID-19 vaccine distribution to the private sector by January 2023 — despite preparing to extend its COVID-19 public health emergency.

Polly and Mary also discussed that emerging statistics on excess mortality rates paint an alarming picture. Far more people died in 2021, after the rollout of the COVID-19 shots, and in 2022, than during the height of the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020.

Plus, Pfizer court-ordered, released data reveals the miscarriage rate among women whose pregnancy outcomes were known was 87.5%.

Also on tap this week: More than 1,000 reports of adverse events have been lodged with U.S. authorities following COVID-19 vaccination in children ages 5 and younger.

More of this week’s highlights:

  • A cure for vaccine hesitancy could start in kindergarten. “I feel that parents need to be very careful where they are putting their children each day,” said Polly.
  • A new international study of 18,497 individuals unvaccinated against COVID-19 shows potentially illegal discrimination. “Such discrimination and restriction of liberties based on a medical choice may fall foul of relevant national anti-discrimination laws and international treaties,” concluded the authors. “This is very important,” said Mary. “This control group is invaluable.”
  • Many schools are using SmartPass, a hall pass application that tracks students and generates weekly reports about trends in their movements. But not all parents are in favor of the app. “This is training children to be surveilled as adults,” said Mary.
  • The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention confirmed the fifth human infection of 2022 with a flu virus that typically spreads in pigs. “This boggles my mind,” said Mary.
  • The U.S. Department of Agriculture is distributing oral rabies vaccine via airplanes, helicopters, vehicles, and special bait stations. “This is so disturbing,” said Polly.
  • People used Twitter to share their thoughts on the latest COVID-19 booster vaccine push. “This is what winning looks like,” said Polly.
  • State Sen. Scott Wiener (D-San Francisco), who authored Senate Bill 866, announced he will not put his teen vaccine consent bill up for a vote in the California Assembly because it does not have enough support to pass. “Super exciting,” said Mary.
  • Fifty reasons to Give Your Child the COVID-19 Vaccine” — “This article is meticulously researched,” said Mary.
  • Catch up on daily news with “Good Morning CHD.” Plus, the CHD team answers your questions on the “Friday Roundtable.” Watch both on CHD.TV.
  • A meme is circulating containing false information regarding Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and a court case. “Be very clear — we are fighting every day, but no court has found this anywhere yet,” said Mary.
  • Check out CHD on Rumble.
  • Donate to support CHD’s efforts.
