Opinion Here’s how to get free Paxlovid as many times as you need it
When the public health emergency around covid-19 ended, vaccines and treatments became commercial products, meaning companies could charge for them as they do other pharmaceuticals. Paxlovid, the highly effective antiviral pill that can prevent covid from becoming severe, now has a list price of nearly $1,400 for a five-day treatment course.
Thanks to an innovative agreement between the Biden administration and the drug’s manufacturer, Pfizer, Americans can still access the medication free or at very low cost through a program called Paxcess. The problem is that too few people — including pharmacists — are aware of it.
I learned of Paxcess only after readers wrote that pharmacies were charging them hundreds of dollars — or even the full list price — to fill their Paxlovid prescription. This shouldn’t be happening. A representative from Pfizer, which runs the program, explained to me that patients on Medicare and Medicaid or who are uninsured should get free Paxlovid. They need to sign up by going to paxlovid.iassist.com or by calling 877-219-7225. “We wanted to make enrollment as easy and as quick as possible,” the representative said.
Indeed, the process is straightforward. I clicked through the web form myself, and there are only three sets of information required. Patients first enter their name, date of birth and address. They then input their prescriber’s name and address and select their insurance type.
All this should take less than five minutes and can be done at home or at the pharmacy. A physician or pharmacist can fill it out on behalf of the patient, too. Importantly, this form does not ask for medical history, proof of a positive coronavirus test, income verification, citizenship status or other potentially sensitive and time-consuming information.
But there is one key requirement people need to be aware of: Patients must have a prescription for Paxlovid to start the enrollment process. It is not possible to pre-enroll. (Though, in a sense, people on Medicare or Medicaid are already pre-enrolled.)
Once the questionnaire is complete, the website generates a voucher within seconds. People can print it or email it themselves, and then they can exchange it for a free course of Paxlovid at most pharmacies.
Pfizer’s representative tells me that more than 57,000 pharmacies are contracted to participate in this program, including major chain drugstores such as CVS and Walgreens and large retail chains such as Walmart, Kroger and Costco. For those unable to go in person, a mail-order option is available, too.
The program works a little differently for patients with commercial insurance. Some insurance plans already cover Paxlovid without a co-pay. Anyone who is told there will be a charge should sign up for Paxcess, which would further bring down their co-pay and might even cover the entire cost.
Several readers have attested that Paxcess’s process was fast and seamless. I was also glad to learn that there is basically no limit to the number of times someone could use it. A person who contracts the coronavirus three times in a year could access Paxlovid free or at low cost each time.
Unfortunately, readers informed me of one major glitch: Though the Paxcess voucher is honored when presented, some pharmacies are not offering the program proactively. As a result, many patients are still being charged high co-pays even if they could have gotten the medication at no cost.
This is incredibly frustrating. However, after interviewing multiple people involved in the process, including representatives of major pharmacy chains and Biden administration officials, I believe everyone is sincere in trying to make things right. As we saw in the early days of the coronavirus vaccine rollout, it’s hard to get a new program off the ground. Policies that look good on paper run into multiple barriers during implementation.
Those involved are actively identifying and addressing these problems. For instance, a Walgreens representative explained to me that in addition to educating pharmacists and pharmacy techs about the program, the company learned it also had to make system changes to account for a different workflow. Normally, when pharmacists process a prescription, they inform patients of the co-pay and dispense the medication. But with Paxlovid, the system needs to stop them if there is a co-pay, so they can prompt patients to sign up for Paxcess.
Here is where patients and consumers must take a proactive role. That might not feel fair; after all, if someone is ill, people expect that the system will work to help them. But that’s not our reality. While pharmacies work to fix their system glitches, patients need to be their own best advocates. That means signing up for Paxcess as soon as they receive a Paxlovid prescription and helping spread the word so that others can get the antiviral at little or no cost, too.

No End to the Covid-19 Nightmare in Sight? Dear friends, as I warned only a few weeks ago in this post which can still be found on my Bill’s Bible Basics Blog . . . https://www.billkochman.com/Blog/index.php/covid-19-president-joe-biden-just-gave-the-green-light-now-watch-the-avalanche-of-forced-vaccinations-begin/ . . . when President Joe Biden gave the green light which mandated that all federal employees be vaccinated or else face forced regular testing and wearing face masks, he set in motion a trend which has now — in a matter of only a few weeks time — avalanched into the private sector as well, and is affecting all of our lives to one degree or another. As we all know by now, many areas of the private sector have likewise picked up the vaccination ball, and are running with it as far as they possibly can, as can be easily seen by daily news reports, online videos and commentaries, etc. Whether they are big corporations, smaller businesses, universities, public school systems, or other establishments and entities; they are all now requiring that those people who either work for them, or who interact with them in some other way, be vaccinated. Tragically, those people who continue to resist being vaccinated for whatever their personal reasons, are being faced with negative — and sometimes very difficult — repercussions, including the potential loss of their employment. Obviously, that is the very last thing that such individuals need during this troubling time. However, as I pointed out in a previous post — in which I even cited a Washington Times news article — that has been the plan all along. The government openly admitted that it wanted to make life difficult for unvaccinated people. So now we must ask ourselves exactly how far this can go. Well, it seems that we now have a clear answer. If you have been closely following the latest COVID-19 news and developments, then you will already know that for some time now, there has been talk of the potential need for vaccine booster shots for certain individuals. That has now become a reality, as is evidenced by the following news article: https://www.foxnews.com/health/fda-covid-19-booster-vaccine-immunocompromised My concern is obviously the following. While government and health/medical officials are currently stating that only immunocompromised individuals need to be concerned with getting vaccine booster shots, how soon will that change? Folks, let’s be honest about this. At least here in the United States of America, if there is one thing we know with certainty, it is that since the pandemic first began, the narrative which has been presented to us by government and health officials has changed continuously, sometimes almost overnight. Granted, to be fair, to some degree, in the beginning this was to be expected. After all, little was known about the nature of the virus, and we were still learning about it. However, now we are a full seventeen months into this pandemic. The point is that the pandemic situation has become so confusing, that many people no longer even trust their own governments, and have lost faith in their health officials�� pronouncements as well. For example, Dr. Anthony Fauci — who is the Director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases in the USA, and the Chief Medical Advisor to President Biden, as he was previously with President Donald Trump — has lost all credibility with many Americans, due to his ever-changing narrative, and what are believed to be his questionable ties to the Wuhan virology lab in China, and the gain-of-function controversy. But can we really blame them for their lack of trust? My gosh, even at this late date, we are still not being told the full truth regarding the origin of the SARS-CoV-2 virus which causes coronavirus COVID-19. On top of that fact, as I already said, the narrative is constantly changing. For example, first it was masks on, then masks off, and then masks on again. First we
were told that the vaccines would be voluntary, and now they are slowly becoming universally mandatory. But that is not all. First we were told that the vaccines would protect us from getting COVID-19, and now it turns out that even double-vaccinated people can not only still get the coronavirus, but they can even pass it on to others, because their nasal viral load is just about as strong as in unvaccinated people. Furthermore, there are also recent accounts which claim that some people are getting COVID-19 as a direct result of being vaccinated. And it doesn’t end there either. First there was just one COVID-19, and now there are multiple mutations and variants, even more powerful than the original strain. So as I have now said a few times, the narrative we are being given is constantly changing. That being the case, why should we believe that booster shots will be limited to just immunocompromised individuals? Well, I will give you one good reason why you should not believe it. Once again, if you have been paying close attention to the latest developments, then you will probably already know that the latest pandemic spikes are said to be a result of the delta variant which is currently sweeping the world. There is also some chatter regarding the lambda variant. But there is more. It has now begun to leak out that the vaccines — particularly the Pfizer vaccine — are losing their potency or effectiveness against these newer strains of COVID-19. In fact, just yesterday I was reading that the efficacy of the Pfizer/BioNTech vaccine against the delta variant is down to just 42%, while the efficacy of the Moderna vaccine against the delta variant is 76%. If you doubt my word, please read this article: https://www.business-standard.com/article/current-affairs/moderna-covid-vaccine-76-effective-against-delta-pfizer-42-study-121081201173_1.html Now folks, it doesn’t take a genius to figure this out. We already know that virus mutations are real. They adapt according to the environment they are in, and new strains, or variants, arise which are stronger and more resistant to anything we throw at them. As a result, they also become more transmissible, exactly as the delta variant has done. So who is to say that at some point in our not-too-distant future, a new coronavirus variant won’t arise which is even more resistant, and more transmissible — or contagious — than the delta variant? My friends, this is a very real scientific possibility. This is not some wild conspiracy theory. The truth is that no one should be surprised by this possibility. Do you know why? Because scientists have known about this potential threat — and warned about it — for literally decades now. In fact, I first broached this subject of drug-resistant superbugs myself back in 1999 in my 14-part series entitled "Fulfilled Prophecy: The Beginning of Sorrows", which you can read at the following URL, if you desire to: https://www.billkochman.com/Articles/sorrow01.html So, it is for that reason that I personally seriously doubt that the necessity of vaccine booster shots will remain limited to just immunocompromised individuals, despite the current claims being made by government and health officials. They have constantly changed their story about everything else, so why not about this as well? I believe that it won’t be long before they will be saying that EVERYONE needs to receive booster shots, because the current vaccines were NOT designed to combat these new, more powerful variants. They were designed to combat the ORIGINAL strain. That is why there have been so-called “breakthrough” cases. That is why vaccinated people are still able to get COVID-19. That is why vaccinated individuals can still infect other people. That is why some people — no matter how small the number — are still becoming very sick, and even dying, after being vaccinated. So again, I do believe that in the near future, booster shots are going to be required — and quite possibly mandated — for EVERYONE. Not just once either, but multiple times at periodic intervals.
As this pandemic continues to ravage the world, we may potentially see more powerful variants arise on the scene; variants which will resist and weaken the current vaccines even further. This will of course require that new and more powerful vaccines be manufactured. In conclusion, I honestly don’t know how this will end, or when this will end. It seems to me that we may possibly be locked into a never-ending cycle. At this current time, my personal impression is that we are not winning the current battle against SARS-CoV-2, what with our vaccines weakening, and new variants arising. However this all eventually ends, I hope that your heart is right with God our Father, and that you have received Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior. https://www.billkochman.com/Blog/index.php/no-end-to-the-covid-19-nightmare-in-sight/?feed_id=77146&_unique_id=650fce56bc32b&No%20End%20to%20the%20Covid-19%20Nightmare%20in%20Sight%3F

By Hugo Francisco de Souza
New research shows that COVID-19 survivors, especially older adults and non-hospitalized patients, are at an increased risk for chronic fatigue syndrome—underscoring the need for comprehensive care for vulnerable populations.
In a recent study published in the Journal of Infection and Public Health, researchers carried out a retrospective cohort study comprising 3,227,281 pairs of patients with and without COVID-19 from a larger dataset of over 115 million patients to investigate the associations between severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS‑CoV‑2) infections and chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) risk, particularly in the presence of comorbidities.
Cox proportional hazard models revealed that patients with prior SARS‑CoV‑2 infections were at increased risk of contracting CFS (HR = 1.59), with adults above the age of 65, Asians (HR = 1.75), females, and those with comorbidities including diabetes, obesity, hypertensive disease, and hyperlipidemia being identified as the highest risk populations. The omicron variant was associated with slightly higher CFS risk (HR = 1.40) than older SARS‑CoV‑2 strains (alpha HR = 1.33, delta HR = 1.40), with risk levels for Omicron similar to Delta, despite Omicron typically causing milder acute illness.
Furthermore, contrary to previous studies, this research found that non-hospitalized patients had a higher risk of developing CFS (HR = 1.64) compared to those who were hospitalized (HR = 1.22), challenging assumptions that more severe initial infections increase long-term fatigue risk.
Background
The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic remains one of the worst in human history, infecting more than 700 million humans and claiming more than 7 million lives in only four years. While social distancing measures and vaccination campaigns have substantially curbed disease spread and dampened infection severity, many COVID-19 survivors report persistent or novel symptoms that cause debilitation for months or years following initial infection recovery.
Alarmingly, these conditions, collectively termed “long COVID,” are estimated to plague up to 78% of survivors, leaving them with chronic chest pain, lung diseases, muscle aches, and chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS). While studies aimed at establishing the association between SARS‑CoV‑2 infection and CFS risk have been carried out, none have evaluated the effects of covariates, particularly comorbidities and other preexisting medical conditions.
A growing body of evidence suggests the positive feedback loop between long COVID and other chronic conditions, observing that the presence of one increases the risk and severity of the other. Furthermore, long COVID is a multi-organ condition, highlighting the need for comprehensive, extensive cohort investigations into the associations between CFS and long COVID risk factors.
The present study uses an extensive cohort (COVID-19 cases; n = 3,227,281 pairs) across a spectrum of infection severity, age, sex, race/ethnicity, vaccination status, and comorbidities to establish the risk associations between prior COVID-19 infections and CFS risk. Study data was obtained from the United States (US) TriNetX database, a collaborative network comprising electronic health records of more than 115 million patients, between January 2020 and December 2023. Participant selection was carried out by first identifying CFS patients from the database (n = 3,227,281) and then 1:1 propensity score-matching (PSM) matching them with CFS-free patients (non-COVID-19 controls).
Relevant data included demographics, infection and comorbidity diagnoses, ongoing medications, procedures, and laboratory test results. Covariates under investigation included age, sex, COVID-19 vaccination status and disease severity, hypertensive diseases, race, ischemic heart diseases, hyperlipidemia, cerebrovascular diseases, chronic kidney disease, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, and depression. Patients were further divided into subcohorts based on the wave (alpha, delta, or omicron) of initial SARS-CoV-2 infection. The outcome of interest was medically confirmed CFS diagnoses.
Standardized Mean Differences (SMD) were used to compare covariates across COVID-19 and non-COVID-19 participants, with Kaplan–Meier analysis computing CFS incidence rates and univariate Cox proportional hazard models computing hazard ratios (HRs; CFS risk) in case and control cohorts.
Study findings
Of the 115,675,909 patients represented in the TriNetX database, 3,227,281 were confirmed to have experienced a prior COVID-19 infection and were included as cases. All cases were 1:1 PSM to COVID-free controls, doubling the size of the study dataset. Cases were predominantly female (54.4%), White (58.7%), and had a history of hypertensive disease (17%). Furthermore, obesity (8.1%), type 2 diabetes mellitus (7.8%), hyperlipidemia (14.2%), and depression (5.5%) were frequently observed as COVID-19-associated comorbidities.
SMD analysis and HRs revealed that COVID-19 patients presented both higher incidence (~0.6%) and risk (~59%, HR = 1.59) of CFS compared to non-COVID-19 ones. Notably, significant variable-associated differences in CFS risk were observed, with patients aged 65 and older (HR = 1.74), female sex (HR = 1.62), and Asian (HR = 1.75) patients revealed to be at highest CFS risk. Unvaccinated patients (HR = 1.62) were found to be more likely to contract CFS than vaccinated (HR = 1.25) ones. Contrary to previous research, non-hospitalized patients had a significantly higher risk of developing CFS (HR = 1.64) than those hospitalized (HR = 1.22), which may suggest that early medical care during acute infection mitigates long-term fatigue risk. This is one of the first reports of race/ethnicity altering post-COVID-19 CFS risk.
Omicron and delta variant patients were found to be at slightly higher CFS risk (HR = 1.40, respectively) compared to alpha variant patients (HR = 1.33), with Omicron showing similar risk levels to Delta despite typically causing less severe acute illness. Infection severity outcomes on HR ranged from 1.22 (the most severe infection requiring immediate hospitalization) to 1.64 (no hospitalization required).
Conclusions
The present study uses a cohort of more than 6 million patients to elucidate the risk associations between COVID-19 and its comorbidities and subsequent CFS risk. Supporting previous research, the study established a higher CFS risk (HR = 1.59) in COVID-19 patients compared to their COVID-19-free counterparts. Unlike earlier studies, this research highlighted the significant influence of race, with Asian patients showing the highest CFS risk (HR = 1.75), and emphasized the importance of comorbidities, with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) also contributing to increased risk (HR = 1.43), in addition to the known comorbidities of obesity, diabetes, and hypertension.
The findings on hospitalization severity were unexpected, as non-hospitalized patients had a significantly higher risk of developing CFS (HR = 1.64) compared to those hospitalized on the same day (HR = 1.22), suggesting that prompt medical care during acute infection may mitigate long-term fatigue risk.
Together, these findings provide a comprehensive evaluation of the landscape of CFS risk, helping clinicians better understand the needs of COVID-19 patients and potentially improving their quality of life.

In an October 2023 lecture, David E. Martin, Ph.D., detailed how we can know that SARS-CoV-2 is a manmade bioweapon that has been in the works for 58 years
The virus called “coronavirus” was first described in 1965. Two years later, the U.S. and U.K. launched an exchange program where healthy British military personnel were infected with coronavirus pathogens from the U.S. as part of the U.S. biological weapons program
In 1992, Ralph Baric at University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill, took a pathogen that used to infect the gut and lungs and altered it with a chimera to make it infect the heart, causing cardiomyopathy. This research was part of the efforts to produce an HIV vaccine
In November 2000, Pfizer patented its first spike protein vaccine. Between 2000 and 2019, vaccine trials using this technology proved it was lethal, yet in the summer of 2020, the clinical trials for the SARS-CoV-2 shots went straight into human trials
mRNA spike protein was publicly described as a bioweapon 18 years ago. In 2005, at a conference hosted by DARPA and The Mitre Corporation, the mRNA spike protein was hailed as a “biological warfare-enabling technology,” i.e., a biological warfare agent

Hi! I’m back. I wasn’t gone very long but that’s okay. So there is good news and bad news and worse news. The good news is that my Nurse Practitioner has agreed to the diazepam as a rescue medication for my anxiety. She also ordered an every day medication that should help bring my anxiety down to a manageable level and help with my horrible, horrible nightmares. I’m very grateful and excited to see how this goes!
The bad news is my mom is still sick and they’re worried about her heart. They believe she has broken heart syndrome from the losses in our family due to coronavirus . 21+ people in a four year span is just too much. For anyone. Luckily with counseling and medical management she’s expected to make a recovery!!
Okay for the worse news.
My landlord is being absolute garbage. They know we are both unwell, however they invited themselves and the potential buyer over TONIGHT. When I protested they said that the other option is to have the showing on Friday…after the buyer has thrown a party of over 50 people. People who are of dubious vaccination status. So break the law and show them my dirty house and risk punishment from the landlord or risk bringing Covid into my home.
So this is where we’re re at. Sometimes you have to take a minute and take care of yourself. That’s what I’m trying REALLY hard to do.
Thank you for your patience and understanding while this sorts itself out and HOPEFULLY we’ll get back to our regularly scheduled broadcast soon lol

I recently changed my NHS number and the GP has transferred all my medical records except my Covid vaccine information. They said that they couldn't repopulate my new record because the Covid information is entered through a different system. I was wondering if anyone else has encountered this issue and if it has been resolved?
Hi Anon,
There really should not be any issue updating any NHS system.
According to my research (gov.uk) your GP is the person that should update your details on your COVID certificate. So you may want to tell your GP what the government website says about it being your GP that updates this for you.
The NHS, especially GP surgeries are very good at placing responsibility on others, when they don’t know the answer. Too often admins in GP surgery’s make statements that have no reason behind them other than they just don’t know. So instead of being honest and just simply saying they need to go and find out before giving you incorrect information, they’ll say things like this instead. It’s important to know that your GP is the central person to your care on the NHS and they are responsible for your NHS records being accurate, matching across departments and being up to date.
https://www.gov.uk/guidance/nhs-covid-pass#:~:text=You%20should%20check%20that%20your,to%20have%20your%20details%20updated.

Lula government to lift secrecy on Bolsonaro vaccination records
Tumblr media
Brazil’s Federal Comptroller General’s Office on Monday ruled to release Jair Bolsonaro’s Covid vaccination status — which had been kept confidential by the previous administration.
In January 2021, the government slapped a 100-year secrecy seal on the then-president’s immunization records, claiming the information contained sensitive private data belonging to Mr. Bolsonaro. The comptroller’s office says the information is of public interest due to its “influence on the Brazilian state’s immunization policies.”
Almost a month ago, Comptroller General Vinícius de Carvalho told CNN Brasil that his office has records indicating that former President Jair Bolsonaro received a dose of the Janssen coronavirus vaccine on July 19, 2021. 
However, the Federal Comptroller General’s Office is investigating whether the record is authentic or if it has been tampered with. Mr. Carvalho informed the cable news station that an investigation into the authenticity of the vaccination record was opened on December 30.

COVID-19 Linked to Long-Term Risk for Autoimmune, Autoinflammatory Disease
Long-term monitoring and management of patients is crucial after COVID-19, considering demographic factors, disease severity, and vaccination status, to mitigate these risks. In a population-based study published in JAMA Dermatology, researchers from the Republic of Korea investigated whether having a history of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) increased the long-term risk of autoimmune and…

Long COVID Is Harming Too Many Kids
Pediatric long COVID is more common than many thought, and we keep letting kids be reinfected with new variants

Pediatric long COVID is more common than many thought, and we keep letting kids be reinfected with new variants
Since the COVID pandemic began, claims that the disease poses only minimal risk to children have spread widely, on the presumption that the lower rate of severe acute illness in kids tells the whole story. Notions that children are nearly immune to COVID and don’t need to be vaccinated have pervaded.
These ideas are wrong. People making such claims ignore the accumulating risk of long COVID, the constellation of long-term health effects caused by infection, in children who may get infected once or twice a year. The condition may already have affected nearly six million kids in the U.S. Children need us to wake up to this serious threat. If we do, we can help our kids with a few straightforward and effective measures.
The spread of the mistaken idea that children have nothing to worry about has had some help from scientists. In 2023 the American Medical Association’s pediatrics journal published a study–which has since been retracted—reporting the rate of long COVID symptoms in kids was “strikingly low” at only 0.4 percent. The results were widely publicized as feel-good news, and helped rationalize the status quo, where kids are repeatedly exposed to SARS-COV-2 in underventilated schools and parents believe they will suffer no serious harm.
On supporting science journalism
If you're enjoying this article, consider supporting our award-winning journalism by subscribing. By purchasing a subscription you are helping to ensure the future of impactful stories about the discoveries and ideas shaping our world today.
In January 2024, however, two scientists published a letter with me explaining why that study was invalid. Some of the errors made it hard to understand how the study survived peer review. For example, the authors claimed to report on long COVID using the 2021 World Health Organization definition, but didn’t properly account for the possibility of new onset and fluctuating or relapsing symptoms, even though that definition and the subsequently released 2023 pediatric one emphasize those attributes. Any child with four symptom-free weeks—even nonconsecutive ones—following confirmed infection was categorized by the study authors as not having long COVID.
In August, the authors of the study retracted it. They did not admit to the errors we raised. But they did admit to new errors, and said these mistakes meant they understated the rate of affected children.
And that rate, according to other research, is quite high. The American Medical Association’s top journal, JAMA, in August published a key new study and editorial about pediatric long COVID. The editorial cites several robust analyses and concludes that, while uncertainty remains, long COVID symptoms appear to occur after about 10 percent to 20 percent of pediatric infections.
If you’re keeping score, that’s as many as 5.8 million affected children in the U.S.—so far. And we know studies and surveys of adults have found that repeat infections heighten the risk of long-term consequences.
The JAMA study comparing infected and uninfected children found that trouble with memory or focusing is the most common long COVID symptom in kids aged six to 11. Back, neck, stomach and head pain were the next most common symptoms. Other behavioral impacts included “fear about specific things” and refusal to go to school.
Adolescents aged 12 to 17 reported different leading symptoms. Change or loss in smell or taste was most common, followed by body pains, daytime tiredness, low energy, tiredness after walking and cognitive deficits. The study noted that symptoms “affected almost every organ system.” In other words, these symptoms reflect real physiological trauma. For example, SARS-COV-2 can cause or mediate cardiovascular, neurological and immunological harm, even increasing the relative risk of new onset pediatric diabetes when compared with other lesser infections.
Children in schools today are often described as struggling with emotional regulation, attention deficits and developmental problems. Adolescents have some of the worst standardized test scores in decades. Pandemic measures such as school closures—most of which were short-lived and occurred several years ago—have been blamed almost entirely for children’s present-day behavioral and learning problems.
While it is clear these early pandemic disruptions negatively impacted many children, the unproven notion that “the cure was worse than the disease” has become dogma and sometimes involves reimagining history. For example, the Canadian Pediatric Society’s most recent COVID vaccination guidance fails to even acknowledge the existence of pediatric long COVID, while stating without evidence in its preamble that children were more affected by pandemic disruptions in activities than direct viral effects. It’s hard to imagine how this wording could encourage pediatricians and parents to vaccinate children against a disabling virus.
Consider also a small but widely publicized Bezos Family Foundation–funded study which unscientifically claimed accelerated cortical thinning, a type of brain restructuring that occurs over time, is caused by “lockdowns.” The study design could not demonstrate cause and effect, however, but only correlation. Pediatric brain experts have critiqued the research, pointing out that “no supporting evidence” was provided for the claim cortical thinning is from social isolation, and that it isn’t necessarily pathological. “Lockdowns” were neither defined nor controlled for in the study, which relied on 54 pandemic-era brains scans from different children than the prepandemic scans they were compared to—meaning there was no measurement of brain changes in specific individuals. The pandemic-era scans came from months when relevant CDC seroprevalence data estimate that the number of children with one or more infections rose from about one in five to around three in five. We might reasonably predict that many of the studied brain scans were therefore from children who recently had COVID.
It is understandably disturbing to entertain the idea that we might currently be recklessly allowing millions of children to be harmed by preventable disease. That may be part of why problematic studies such as these have gotten headlines. It is more disturbing, however, that almost no public attention has been given to infection itself as a potential cause of children’s behavioural and learning problems.
This makes no sense. We know that COVID harms the brain. Neuroinflammation, brain shrinkage, disruption of the blood-brain barrier and more have been documented in adults, as have cognitive deficits. These deficits have been measured as equivalent to persistent decreased IQ scores, even for mild and resolved infections. Millions of people have, or have experienced, “brain fog.” What, then, do we guess a child’s COVID-induced “trouble with focusing or memory” might be?
When you put together the estimate that 10 to 20 percent of infected kids may experience long-term symptoms, that many of the most common symptoms affect cognition, energy levels and behavior, and that children are being periodically reinfected, you have a scientific rationale to partly explain children’s widely reported behavioural and learning challenges.
We can do something to protect our kids. We can vaccinate them every season, which somewhat reduces the risk of long COVID. We can keep sick children home by passing laws that create paid sick leave and end attendance-based school funding. We can normalize rather than vilify the use of respirator masks that help prevent the spread of airborne diseases.
Finally, we can implement fantastic new engineered indoor air quality standards designed to greatly reduce the spread of germs. Clean indoor air should be expected as a right, like clean water. The cost of providing cleaner indoor air is low relative to the economic benefits, which even when conservatively modeled are in the tens of billions annually in the U.S. and more than ten times the costs. These costs are also small compared to the price children and their families would pay in suffering as a result of preventable long-term impairment.
By regulating, publicly reporting and periodically inspecting building air quality, similarly to how we oversee food safety in commercial kitchens, we can greatly reduce the spread of disease and reap huge benefits for everyone—especially children.

The Covid-19 Magnet Microchip Rumor: Fact or Fiction? My friends, as we all know, right now there is a lot of chatter — including a lot of different conspiracy theories — on the social networks regarding COVID-19 and the vaccines. I myself have written a considerable amount of COVID-19 related material over the past seventeen months. But if we are honest with ourselves, we will recognize that a lot of it comes from people just like you and me. That is, from people who, honestly speaking, are the least qualified to be making any kind of official statements. Yes, we watch a lot of YouTube videos, visit Wikipedia, read a lot of newspaper articles, do research on a lot of medical and scientific websites, etc., and then we form our personal opinions, based on what we have watched and read. But you know what? That still doesn’t mean that we are right, that we fully understand things, or that we even really know the truth, because there is a lot of intentional deception out there, and a lot of personal agendas, all of which is seeking to influence our minds, shape our world view, and control our very actions. One popular Internet rumor at the moment is that the COVID-19 vaccines contain metallic/ magnetic nanoparticles which are causing regular magnets — such as refrigerator magnets — to stick to a vaccine recipient’s skin at the injection site. As if that is not enough, some people even go so far as to claim that the vaccines contain a minute microchip, which is resulting in the alleged reaction with the magnet. Let me quickly address that last topic first. My friends, in a word, I find the possibility of a microchip — or even nanobots — so minute that it/they can even flow in our bloodstream — or through serum in a syringe — quite ludicrous. In my view, such thinking currently belongs in the realm of science fiction movies. I am relatively certain that such technology simply does NOT exist at the moment. We have not yet advanced that far with our technology, no matter what anyone tries to tell you. Perhaps in a few more decades we will reach the point where we have microchips that small, and nanobots which can flow in our bloodstreams, delivering medications, and making repairs to our bodies. However, for now, as far as I know, scientists have only been able to create very simple spring-like mechanisms using carbon nanotubes and such. There are currently no mechanical nanobots flowing in anyone’s bloodstream, and there is no microchip small enough to pass through a syringe. Period. Now, regarding the magnets and metallic particles rumor, my friends, based on two of my previous Bill’s Bible Basics Blog posts, which you will find here . . . Vaccine Magnet Test is a Hoax - Part 1 https://www.billkochman.com/Blog/index.php/covid-19-vaccine-magnet-test-is-a-hoax-part-1/ Vaccine Magnet Test is a Hoax - Part 2 https://www.billkochman.com/Blog/index.php/covid-19-vaccine-magnet-test-is-a-hoax-part-2/ . . . I can only conclude that if magnets are really sticking to people’s skin at vaccine injection sites — which I still seriously doubt — then it must be for some other possibly medical reason. Either that, or they are simply well-crafted hoaxes. And before you even ask, I am sorry, but watching a YouTube video won’t convince me otherwise, because videos can easily hide things, and can be easily manipulated as well, to make you see things that are really not there, or which are really not happening. Now, having stated all of the above, I have read information regarding a compound called graphene oxide which is currently being studied as a possible delivery system for medications — such as vaccines — in the future. Currently, graphene oxide has a number of industrial uses. You can learn more about it by reading articles such as this one: https://health-desk.org/articles/how-do-we-know-graphene-oxide-isn-t-used-in-covid-19-mrna-vaccines However, as that, and many other articles state, and as the vaccine
manufacturers likewise insist, there is currently no graphene oxide in any of the COVID-19 vaccines. Now, whether or not we should believe what they are saying is a good question. I can’t answer that for you. In fact, I can’t even answer it for myself, because I don’t have that kind of education, background or experience. Let me also mention that graphene oxide in itself is NOT metallic, and thus not magnetic. It is actually carbon based, just like carbon nanotubes, if you know anything about current developments in nanotechnology. However, while graphene oxide can be bound to magnetic nanoparticles for a variety of applications, as I said, the vaccine manufacturers — and other sources — claim that the COVID-19 vaccines do NOT currently contain graphene oxide. To reiterate one of the points I made in my two previous BBB Blog posts, while I am not a scientist or a medical professional, simple logic tells me that even if the vaccines did contain metallic/magnetic nanoparticles, it would not be of a sufficient amount to cause a magnet to react in the manner in which some people are describing. After all, you can only fit so much serum in a syringe, and most of it is liquid, and not solid particles. Can I conclusively prove this point? Definitely not. So, it is really up to you to decide what you want to believe. https://www.billkochman.com/Blog/index.php/the-covid-19-magnet-microchip-rumor-fact-or-fiction/?feed_id=61836&_unique_id=6456cee49626c&The%20Covid-19%20Magnet%20Microchip%20Rumor%3A%20Fact%20or%20Fiction%3F

By Benjamin Mateus
The ninth wave of the COVID-19 pandemic in the United States is finally receding, with estimated daily new infections based on wastewater data now standing at 669,000 per day, down from the August peaks of over 1.3 million. However, experts predict that the tenth wave will begin in late fall and continue through the winter holidays, as has taken place every year of the pandemic so far.
With one in 70 individuals currently infectious, the risk of coming into contact with someone in a classroom, work, or dining at a local facility with 25 to 50 people is considerable. And despite the relative lull in cases, there is more COVID-19 transmission now than during 56.1 percent of the pandemic. In other words, the “forever COVID” policy essentially means that COVID is now everywhere all the time.
Under these conditions, forced upon society by the capitalist ruling class, repeat infections act like a battering ram, taking a growing toll on the foundation of everyone’s overall wellbeing. There is a growing body of evidence that each hit weakens the organ systems, aging them biologically beyond the person’s stated age until sufficient injury begins to manifest in physically measurable symptoms.
At present, more than one billion cumulative COVID infections have occurred in the US, at a rate of around one per year per person, with somewhere between 3-4 infections on average among the entire population. Estimates place the number of Long COVID cases at over 410 million globally in just the first four years of the pandemic, while excess deaths are nearing 30 million.
Clearly, the pandemic is ongoing and remains a significant health risk for the global population. The criminality of the “forever COVID” policy is highlighted by the fact that virtually no funding is allocated to the development of next-generation mucosal vaccines, improved treatments during the acute phase of infection, or any treatments for Long COVID patients. While trillions are squandered on war and bank bailouts for the rich, nothing is provided for critical life-saving research.
Last week, results from the first clinical trial of a mucosal vaccine were released, showing remarkable levels of efficacy after a second dose.
The important study published by Chinese investigators demonstrated that an intranasally administered anti-COVID vaccine can induce robust mucosal immunity against the coronavirus in human subjects (128 healthcare workers). The study found that the vaccine provided substantial immune protection against COVID while demonstrating safety and tolerance.
Esteemed clinical researcher Dr. Eric Topol wrote on Twitter/X, “[two] doses of a COVID nasal vaccine spray led to more than a 50-fold increase in spike specific secretory IgA antibodies against 10 strains of SARS-CoV-2, indicative of potent mucosal immunity.” Furthermore, Topol added, “At least 86.2 percent of participants who completed two nasal vaccines doses maintained uninfected status, likely without even asymptomatic infection, for at least three months.”
Emergency room physician and indoor air quality proponent, Dr. Kashif Pirzada, replied, “This could potentially give a real ending to the pandemic. No more waves of illness, no more rushing for tests and antivirals if you’re elderly or vulnerable. Hope this comes out soon!”
However, large Phase 3 clinical trials are costly, requiring multiple participants to obtain statistically relevant information on clinical endpoints, not to speak of the research and development investment to identify a therapeutic that can be tested. Thus, under capitalism, there is virtually no investment in these large-scale trials and nothing is being done beyond offering boosters of the current vaccine, despite their greatly reduced efficacy in preventing transmission.
The mucosal vaccine study was conducted just as Chinese officials acquiesced to the demands of the imperialist powers to abandon their life-saving Zero-COVID public health program, resulting in the infection of virtually the entire population and the deaths of 1-2 million people. What could such a vaccine have meant to these millions that perished needlessly and the millions more globally since then?
This raises the broader question of why the international community, facing a devastating pandemic, could not bring its accumulated scientific bodies to address the need to develop a preventative treatment against COVID?
As a trigger event in world history, the COVID-19 pandemic has only accelerated and exposed the deep-seated contradictions in global capitalism, which demands the accumulation of profits at any costs. The ruling class has nothing but contempt for workers, refusing to invest in any social programs that can improve the lives of masses of people. Short sightedness, corruption, mistrust, and suspicion epitomize their actions, which are rapidly progressing to a world conflagration carrying the danger of nuclear war.
Simply put, the ruling class cares not one iota about mucosal vaccines, just as they harbor resentment against any public health policy that infringes on their ability to conduct business.
Refusing to invest in these life-saving technologies, the capitalist ruling class has condemned humanity to face a lifetime of reinfections with COVID-19. What are the implications of this criminal policy?
Multiple previous studies have highlighted the dangers posed by reinfections with SARS-CoV-2. A recent study uploaded as a pre-print publication on Research Square (under review with the journal Nature Portfolio) by the Patient-Led Collaborative has once again found similar results when attempting to characterize the association between reinfections and the chronic debilitating condition known as Long COVID.
Among 3,382 participants (22 percent never had COVID, 42 percent with one prior infection and 35 percent with two or more infections), the risk of Long COVID was 2.14 times more likely among those with two COVID infections and 3.75 times more likely among those who had three or more COVID Infections compared to just one. Limitations in physical functioning measured in their study included ability to dress, bathe, perform moderate activities like vacuuming and functioning socially. Reinfections led to poorer overall health and worse immune health, including more severe outcomes and longer recovery from other infections.
As the authors wrote:
"Relative to those who did not report infections or experienced COVID-19 once, reinfections were associated with increased likelihood of severe fatigue, post-exertional malaise, decreased physical function, poorer immune health, symptom exacerbation before menstruation, and multiple other Long COVID symptoms. While vaccinations and boosters prior to infection are associated with lower likelihood of Long COVID, reinfections diminish their protective effect. The probability of reporting Long COVID remission is generally low (11.5 percent to 6.5 percent."
Another interesting finding of the study, which underscores the complete abandonment of public health efforts regarding COVID, is that a tiny number of those infected were prescribed antivirals during their acute COVID infections. Those with reinfections were also less likely to test, as the “forever COVID” policy has inured people from taking any protective measures to prevent infections.
The current alphabet soup of COVID strains is sees KP.3.1.1 dominate across the US and Europe, accounting for nearly 60 percent of all strains. However, a new variant known as XEC that was first detected in Germany in June has spread to more than 27 countries and accounts for six percent of all recently sequenced SARS-CoV-2 viruses in the US. Virologists expect this strain, derived from JN.1 through a complex recombination event and which has nearly twice the growth advantage, to overtake KP.3.1.1 and be the dominant variant during the winter season.
In a COVID update by TACT [Together Against COVID Transmission], the authors explain the dangers posed by these evolutionary developments of the SARS-CoV-2 viruses, writing:
"These variants can evade much of the immune responses from both vaccines and recent infections. Since they can evade antibodies to earlier variants, then that raises the risk of organ damage, vascular and neurological dysfunction, brain damage, and persistent infections which often leads to Long COVID. The unmitigated spread is raising concerns about their impact in the coming months."
Hospitalization rates for those 65 years and older and children were one of the highest during the summer from COVID and remain on par with the prior year’s summer/fall wave. The number of people that died from COVID In the week ending August 31, 2024, has climbed to 1,239, four times higher than the lows seen in June. At the present rate, it is expected that at least 60,000 people will officially lose their lives from acute COVID this year, not including deaths incorrectly attributed to another cause or due to the impact on the population’s health from accumulated infections.
These are not incidental and speculative issues. In a provocative report released by the Swiss Re Group, titled “The future of excess mortality after COVID-19,” one of the world’s leading providers of reinsurance and insurance, who specialize in financing the risk of death, they said, “[If] the ongoing impact of the disease is not curtailed, excess mortality rates in the general population may remain up to three percent higher then pre-pandemic levels in the US and 2.5 percent in the UK by 2033.”
They advised their investors:
"Based on current medical trends and expected advancements, we conclude that COVID-19 is still driving excess mortality both directly and indirectly. In the long term, lifestyle factors that contribute to poor metabolic health and lead to obesity and diabetes may become another compounding factor in population excess mortality. Insurers may wish to continue to monitor excess mortality and its underlying drivers in the general population closely, as well as the differences between general and insured populations."

------------------------------------------------------------------------ COVID Vaccine Nightmare for Children Unfolds
A disturbing report has uncovered that COVID-vaccinated kids are far more likely to DIE than unvaccinated children.
Specifically, UK government data reveals that kids who took the COVID shots were 45 TIMES more likely to die of all causes than unvaccinated children.
Adding to concerns, COVID-vaccinated kids were also found to be 137 times more likely to die from COVID itself.
This is not a “conspiracy theory.” This is real data. And anyone can go to the ONS website and do the math themselves.
