The first-in-the-nation vaccine certification, called the Excelsior Pass, will enable New Yorkers to pull up a code on their cell phone or a printout to prove they’ve been vaccinated against COVID-19 or recently tested negative for Covid. In addition to use at large-scale venues like Madison Square Garden, the app will enable people to have large wedding parties and other catered events. Governor Cuomo supports the $2.5-million app, paid for by state taxes, but is free to anyone with vaccination records or test results in New York. Amy Fairchild, dean of Ohio State University and a historian and ethicist, said the biggest challenges with such certifications will be cultural not technological. Requiring vaccination “is not something we have done before within this country outside of school systems and hospitals,” she said. Such efforts have typically fallen apart because of resistance to the idea of being required to do things. -GEG
Starting Friday, New Yorkers will be able to pull up a code on their cell phone or a printout to prove they’ve been vaccinated against COVID-19 or recently tested negative for the virus that causes it.
The first-in-the-nation certification, called the Excelsior Pass, will be useful first at large-scale venues like Madison Square Garden, but next weekwill be accepted at dozens of event, arts and entertainment venues statewide. It already enables people to increase the size of a wedding party, or other catered event.
The app, championed by Gov. Andrew Cuomo to support the recovery of industries most affected by the pandemic, is funded by the state and available for free to businesses and anyone with vaccination records or test results in New York.
Like an airline boarding pass, people will be able to prove their health status with a digital QR code – or “quick response” machine-readable label. They’ll need to download the Excelsior Pass app, enter their name, date of birth, zip code and answer a series of personal questions to confirm their identity. The data will come from the state’s vaccine registry and also will be linked to testing data from a number of pre-approved testing companies.
The Chicago Police Department is in a stand-off with leftist Mayor Lori Lightfoot who mandated that police officers and all city workers were required to receive the Covid-19 vaccine by October 15, or they would lose their jobs. When the deadline came, the city gave police to the end of the year to get vaccinated.
The unveiling of the national vaccine passport comes only a few weeks after Trudeau announced unprecedented COVID-19 jab mandates for all federal workers and said the un-jabbed will no longer be able to travel by air, boat, or train.
The CDC advisory panel advocated for mixing vaccines, no matter which vaccine individuals received first. Side effects and potential vaccine injuries due to mixing vaccines is unknown. More than 11 million people have received a booster or an additional dose of a vaccine to date.
For the third time this year, the US Supreme Court has denied a motion to halt mandatory COVID-19 vaccines, this time declining to block a vaccine requirement imposed by the state of Maine on health care workers.
Of the top 5 counties in the US that have the highest percentage of population fully vaccinated (99.9–84.3%), the CDC identified 4 of them as ‘High’ Transmission counties. Conversely, of the 57 counties that were classified as ‘low’ transmission counties by the CDC, 26.3% had a population fully vaccinated below 20%.
The jab, which fails to prevent transmission of Covid, will be made available to pediatricians, local pharmacies, and even at schools. The US has purchased 65 million doses of the Pfizer pediatric shot, which is expected to contain one-third of the dosage for adults and adolescents. The CDC will still recommend masks.
An In-N-Out store was shut down for employees failing to check vaccination ID. The company fiercely disagrees with any government order that forces a private company to discriminate against customers. “This is clear governmental overreach and is intrusive, improper, and offensive.”
Governor Polis encouraged kids and spouses to lie about taking a Covid vaccine: “A spouse, a parent you live with who doesn’t want to get it, is against it… you can still privately get that vaccine without your partner knowing if that’s what keeps the harmony in the family and you are protecting yourself.”
Five priests and two nuns were abducted in April, and were later released after a ransom was paid. Haitians mounted a nationwide strike to protest gang crime and kidnappings, which have been on the rise for years and have worsened since the July assassination of President Jovenel Moise
Fully vaccinated individuals are getting infected, and they can reportedly transmit the disease. They are being hospitalized and getting seriously ill, and they are dying. The CDC’s Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS) has recorded 16,766 deaths from the experimental Covid vaccines over the past 10 months.
The mandate will terminate about 500 San Diego Police Department officers, 100 San Diego Fire Department firefighters, 20 radio 911-Dispatchers and several hundred civilian employees including trash collectors, city maintenance workers, and other city employees who make the City of San Diego function daily.
This is the second time in recent months that a radical left-wing judge has taken away visitation rights for an unvaccinated parent. Recently, Judge James Shapiro of Cook County, Illinois, restricted an unvaccinated mother from seeing her son in person. Shapiro recused himself from the case after public backlash.
Colin Powell acted as US Secretary of State and asserted that Iraq had weapons of mass destruction in a speech that made false claims to the United Nations to make the case for war on Iraq. Tens of thousands of people, including about 5,000 US service members, died in the war, which lasted from 2003 until 2011.
The lawsuit argues that the mandate violates the First Amendment freedom of religion, that the vaccines were developed using aborted fetal cells, and that the mandate is unenforceable because it has only been issued an Emergency Use Authorization.
Newsom’s administration is defending state prison employees’ ability to choose whether they get vaccinated and is appealing the court ruling. California’s prison guard union made a $1.75 million donation to Newsom’s anti-recall election committee, showing that the governor’s mandate has little to do with health.
Big businesses in the private sector, including Amazon, Walmart, UPS, FedEx, Samsung, Home Depot and Target, were aware of this problem years ago and quietly diverted shipments of their goods to other ports, to avoid the ire of environmentalists.
David Amess, an MP who was meeting with constituents at his church, was stabbed to death. Amess was a champion of refugee resettlement in the UK and he backed the Red Cross’s “Every Refugee Matters” campaign. A 25-year old man, Ali Harbi Ali, into custody after the terror attack.
The Wall Street Journal (WSJ) reported that the European Medicines Agency safety database recorded three times as many reports of myocarditis among Moderna vaccine recipients than Pfizer-BioNTech recipients.

The American Legislative Exchange Council (ALEC) is planning and writing legislation that is beneficial to the member corporations. ALEC is a driving force behind the current drive for mandatory vaccine bills, which are a source of enormous profits for drug manufacturers.
Dr. Michael Ryan says we have to live with the virus until a vaccine is developed and “we can get rid of it,” meaning that everyone must get the vaccine. Dr, Anthony Fauci says America will not go back to normal until a vaccine is developed.
Parents protest against SB276, which removes almost all medical exemptions from mandatory children’s vaccines. The lawmakers threatened to arrest the concerned parents, inspiring the parents to stand up against the tyrants.

There is nothing more dangerous to our freedoms than this. Once an act is performed under the guise of public health, we no longer have any rights. Governor Murhpy of NJ even said he never once though about the Bill of Rights before he implemented draconian lock downs. Once we have lost the right to choose what goes in our body, we will have lost one of the few rights/freedoms we still can control.
