It is very good to see the next generation not only with conservative values but also speaking out and educating others about conservative values.
BWL! Agreed… This is hopeful! In addition to Candace Owens, there are other younger Conservative voices too. I am reassured to hear them speaking up. Candace Owens may even run for office at some point, and this would be quite exciting.

“~>Pfizer says South African variant could significantly reduce vaccine protection
A lab study suggests the South African variant of the coronavirus may reduce antibody protection from the Pfizer Inc/BioNTech SE vaccine by two-thirds.”
A laboratory study suggests that the South African variant of the coronavirus may reduce antibody protection from the Pfizer Inc/BioNTech SE vaccine by two-thirds, and it is not clear if the shot will be effective against the mutation, the companies said on Wednesday.
The study found the vaccine was still able to neutralize the virus and there is not yet evidence from trials in people that the variant reduces vaccine protection, the companies said.
Still, they are making investments and talking to regulators about developing an updated version of their mRNA vaccine or a booster shot, if needed.

Pfizer bails out of India after country demands safety testing for COVID vaccine
American’s Frontline Doctors are urging the Biden administration to take note of India’s decision to deny Pfizer’s application based on a lack of safety.
[lifesitenews(dot)com Feb 10, 2021]
US-based COVID-19 vaccine maker Pfizer has withdrawn its application for emergency-use authorization of its product in India after the country’s health authorities demanded local safety testing.
India’s drug regulator last weekdeclined Pfizer’s request that its experimental COVID-19 mRNA vaccine “BioNTech” (BNT162b) be approved without a local trial of the product’s safety on the country’s population.
The country’s Central Drugs Standard Control Organisation formed a Subject Expert Committee that met on Feb. 3 to discuss Pfizer’s proposal for the emergency use authorization of its COVID-19 experimental vaccine.
“The committee noted that incidents of palsy, anaphylaxis and other SAE’s have been reported during post marketing and the causality of the events with the vaccine is being investigated,” the committee reported.
“Further, the firm [Pfizer] has not proposed any plan to generate safety and immunogenicity data in Indian population. After detailed deliberation, the committee has not recommended for grant of permission for emergency use in the country at this stage,” the committee added.
Pfizer in turn withdrew its application. …
“President Biden and his COVID-19 task force need to immediately and clearly explain to the American people why the Pfizer-BioNTech experimental vaccine is safe for Americans despite Indian drug regulators denying its emergency use based on concerns about potential side effects, immunogenicity, and other data,” the doctors’ group stated.
“The burden of proof should fall on the Biden White House to provide Americans with greater transparency and information so that they can make informed decisions about their own healthcare. Science should guide this administration’s COVID response plan not public relations, polls, and politics.”
While India has rejected Pfizer’s vaccine, it has approved the use of Oxford University’s AstraZeneca vaccine and another one developed on home soil by Bharat Biotech with the Indian Council of Medical Research, reports Reuters.”
Is it true that the AstraZeneca version uses the same delivery platform as the Johnson and Johnson vaccine product? I am wondering about this, and will look into this further. I am watching all of this news very closely, and trying to study the available data.
Telesilla of Argos, ~I don’t know. … The answer will appear at some point, here at SurvivalBlog. [Survival is the key word]

I’ve posted before about COVID-19, the Vaccines, and therapies. I’m just very ~wary about any ‘new’ medical preventative. …. [I get a FLU shot every year; it must be 30 years now. … +I have all the current shots and vaccinations.
…….. I even went to Mexico for a fishing trip 45 years ago, and received a 2nd ‘smallpox’ vaccination. (it didn’t leave a scar like the childhood vaccination.]
…….. I’m saying all of this because, “I’m NOT an anti-vaxxer.” “I’m just WARY; especially now days. … …. Yes, I know the Medical Profession, and our Politicians can make mistakes. … The difference between the two: “Many politicians will ~hurt other people intentionally, for bribes.”
There seems to be a worldwide hysteria about COVID-19. … I’m especially wary about the current vaccines. I’m NOT a medical expert, NOT medically trained, and especially NOT well-informed about COVID-19 treatments.
My Observations:
1. The ailment was used to steal the 2020 election. …. +Destroy businesses for the benefit of other business. …. +Prevent people from gathering together, and exchanging information about the ‘theft’ of the election, plus, the further degradation of our Economy.
2. COVID-19 appears to be a virus, that ‘escaped’ a Communist China ~ Biological Weapons Laboratory. We know China cutoff travel for people ~within China, and intentionally permitted travel outside of China, which spread the virus worldwide.
3. Communist China is NOT receiving a lot of the ‘blame’ for the deaths or financial losses from COVID-19, from China Joe or many other politicians. … Why is that?.
……. [There are always ‘crazy’ stories about people suing for just about anything now days. … But, how often is China blamed for causing a Worldwide disaster?]
4. There is just ‘some’ information about the COVID-19 virus ~mutating, making the current vaccine worthless to the new mutations. … +The therapies developed and used seem to be very ~effective for most healthy people.
[President Trump has been treated with an experimental antibody drug being developed by the drug maker Regeneron after he and the first lady tested positive for the coronavirus. (Internet)]
[President Trump is being given a five-day course of the antiviral drug remdesivir, one of the doctors treating him said during a briefing on Saturday. The treatment is intended to shorten recovery time for Covid-19 patients. (Internet)]
Other countries have other products.
5. Covid-19 seems to be deadly towards very old people, and people with what are called co-morbidities.
~~~~>[There seems to be a ‘rah-rah’ push to have healthy people become vaccinated (talk of mandatorily vaccinated), when the survival rate of Covid-19 is way above 99% for healthy people, ~so far.]
