Commentary While questions posed to the government over COVID-19 policies often were rebutted with the dismissive response of “follow the science,” testimony in court documents obtained by The Epoch Times indicates that the government didn’t follow science at all, particularly when it came to imposing vaccine mandates upon travellers. Four lawsuits have been launched in…
Cory Morgan: ‘Following the Science’ or Politically Motivated? The Incentive Behind Vaccine Travel Mandates Is Now Clear
COVID-19 Jab Does Not Work. Here’s Why
A team of Harvard research scientists, publishing in the New England Journal of Medicine, have found that SARS-CoV-2 virus has mutated so much that the Pfizer mRNA vaccines developed against the original Wuhan strain now have little to no effect. The study, “Neutralization Escape by SARS-CoV-2 Omicron Subvariants BA.2.12.1, BA.4, and BA.5,” evaluated neutralizing antibody…
Fauci’s United Front Is Collapsing
Commentary Last week, medical journalist Katherine Eban posted at Vanity Fair the results of a long and detailed investigation into the lab-leak theory of the origins of SARS-CoV-2. The subject is moving ever more to the front-and-center of efforts to find out exactly what was going on at the highest levels in early 2020 that resulted in the…
Experimental COVID-19 Treatment Performed Well in Clinical Trial
An experimental treatment greatly reduced the risk of hospitalization and emergency room visits in people who contracted COVID-19, according to the maker of the drug and investigators running a clinical trial. California-based Eiger BioPharmaceuticals and investigators running the TOGETHER trial say (pdf) that the treatment, Peginterferon Lambda, cut the risk of needing hospital care by 50…
Why Some People Won’t Get Infected, Even After Covid Exposure
Recently an unprecedented study was conducted in the UK; a Covid-19 “Human Challenge Trial.” In it, 36 unvaccinated young adults were recruited to be injected with the coronavirus SARS-CoV-2 through the nose. While the ethics of this study are undoubtedly questionable, the results were even more surprising. None of these people got seriously sick, and,…
China CDC Conducts COVID-19 Testing at Huanan Seafood Market
Despite comprehensive testing at the Wuhan Huanan Seafood Market (HSM), the origin of the SARS-COV-2 virus remains indeterminate. Chinese researchers tested 1,380 samples collected in early 2020 from the HSM environment and some of the animals within the market and concluded that SARS-COV-2, the causative agent of COVID-19, was prevalent. Seventy-three “environmental samples tested positive…
Decades-Old Drug May Help Protect Against Severe COVID-19 Symptoms: Study
A drug that was approved by U.S. regulators more than 70 years ago may help protect against two major COVID-19 symptoms, according to a new study. Disulfiram, approved to treat alcoholism, protected rodents infected with COVID-19 from lung injury in the preclinical study done by researchers at Weill Cornell Medicine and Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory. Certain…
Goodbye Pandemic, Hello Endemic
Commentary In early 1918, when World War I entered its final year, the H1N1 influenza A virus infected millions of people, causing the Spanish flu pandemic. By April 1920, after four waves and almost 100 million deaths, the pandemic ended. H1N1 became much less deadly and caused only ordinary seasonal flu. It had become an…

The Search for COVID-19 Origin: New Book Leans Toward Lab Leak
It’s been almost two years since COVID-19 struck, and the origin of the virus remains a mystery. Did the virus jump from animals to humans in a natural spillover event, or was it the result of a laboratory leak? A new book explores these and other questions on the source of the coronavirus that has…
