Massive Protests Take Place Throughout Paris: 'We Are Not Guinea Pigs', 'It Is Our Choice'

Thousands march through Paris holding placards saying 'we are not guinea pigs' and 'it is our choice' in opposition to compulsory jabs and vaccine passports




  • Pictures from Paris show thousands of anti-vaxxers marching through city in opposition to vaccine passports
  • Government approved bill which means vaccine passport requirement introduced for most places in August
  • Passport requires people to be vaccinated, to provide a negative test or proof of recent recovery from Covid
  • Four separate protests are being held in Paris today with similar protests also taking place in other cities 

Thousands of demonstrators fought running battles with police in Paris today as protests against a vaccine passport were held across France.

Around 150 separate events were organised in major cities and town after the government used emergency powers to bring in new anti-Coronavirus measures.

By early afternoon on Saturday, tear gas and baton charges were being used against violent groups in Paris.


Four marches descended on the Place de la Bastille, where water cannons and squads of gendarmes and CRS riot police were waiting for them.

'Some of the marches are illegal, and they are being joined by anarchist groups who are not directly linked to the protest,' said one officer at the scene.

More than 160,000 people marched in Paris and other major cities in protest against President Emmanuel Macron's vaccine drive last weekend, and a similar number was expected this Saturday.

Many of the protests were organised by the so-called Gilets Jaunes, or Yellow Vest anti-government movement.

Named after their distinctive fluorescent motoring jackets, they have been behind a series of riots in cities like Paris over the past three years.

Mr Macron's decision three weeks ago to overcome the hesitation of millions of French by all but compelling them to vaccinate is supported by up to 65 per cent of the population, according to polls.


An emergency bill imposing the health pass for access to cafes, restaurants, shopping centres, trains and long-distance buses was passed by parliament last week, and will come into effect on Monday.

But the measures have triggered fury among a minority, channelling hostility towards the President.

Anti-vaccine health workers in their white coats were among those marching at the head of crowds of people today.  

The pass requires vaccinations or a quick negative test or proof of a recent recovery from COVID-19 and mandates vaccinations for all health care workers by mid-September.



Apple To Install Vaccine Passport Feature On All iPhones With iOS15 Update


Apple to Install Vaccine Passport Feature on All iPhones

Apple has announced the coming iOS15 update will include a vaccine passport-like feature within the Health app.

The new feature will allow users to store their medical records within their phone, which can then be shared to regain access to basic aspects of society, such as travel, work, and entertainment.

According to Apple’s website: “Institutions will be able to issue verifiable lab results and immunization records, including COVID-19 test results and vaccinations, that can be downloaded and stored in the Health app.”

The site goes on to say: “You can securely share verifiable immunizations and lab results to facilitate flights, workplace screenings, event screenings, and more.”

The update will be released in the fall and will be available to download as a public beta in July.

Critics of vaccine passports have warned they will be used to discriminate against those who are vaccine-hesitant or refuse to take the COVID jab. The passports will essentially be employed as a means of applying pressure through social exclusion and denial of services, a tactic being pushed by mainstream media in the United States and Australia.



Mask-Free Sweden Nears Zero Daily Covid Deaths


Mask-free Sweden nears zero daily Covid deaths as chief epidemiologist warns against ‘far-reaching conclusions’ about Delta strain

As the CDC urges Americans to mask up against the Delta variant, Sweden’s chief epidemiologist has argued that more data is needed about the strain’s infectiousness. His mask-free nation is hovering at zero Covid deaths per day.

Anders Tegnell said on Friday that there was “a lot we do not know” about Delta and cautioned against drawing “far-reaching conclusions” about the coronavirus strain. He noted that the variant had been circulating in Sweden “for quite some time” with little effect, particularly in high-risk settings such as nursing homes.

His comments were made in response to newly released data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) suggesting the Delta strain is more transmissible and could potentially cause more severe illness. The New York Times and other media outlets ran stories reporting that the CDC now believes the Delta variant is as contagious as chickenpox – but this comparison didn’t seem to impress Tegnell. 


“It is difficult to say how contagious Delta is, [as] when it comes to chickenpox, we have been able to follow the disease for several years. The infectivity [of Delta] seems to be very uneven – in some cases, one person infects a hundred people, then we have other occasions when an infected person does not infect anyone at all,” he told Sweden’s Aftonbladet.


In separate remarks, he pointed to the fact that one-third of the country’s municipalities reported zero new Covid cases over the past week. At the same time, there was an uptick in cases among young people in Stockholm and other large cities.

And while US health authorities are pressing Americans in “high transmission” areas to mask up, Sweden dropped its last remaining mask recommendation – related to public transport – on July 1. While Sweden’s public health agency has supported measures such as social distancing and remote working, it has no recommendations for the use of face coverings in public spaces.

Reviled by the media for refusing to impose harsh lockdowns, Sweden’s less draconian approach to the health crisis appears to be paying off: The Scandinavian nation has recorded a total of eight Covid-linked deaths so far this month, an average of 0.25 deaths per day. While it’s possible this number will increase due to reporting lags, deaths have undoubtedly plummeted over the past several months. On June 4, Sweden reported 13 deaths – more than the entire month of July. 


Is Antibody Dependent Enhancement (ADE) Beginning?


IS ANTIBODY DEPENDENT ENHANCEMENT OCCURRING?



This is cruical information, if true. Increased titers in previously vaccinated individuals is precisely what one would predict during the waning phase of the immunity post vaccination if antibody dependent enhancement was occuring.

NBC had claimed that the titers in the vaccinated were higher, and I had inferred that this meant vaccinated were higher than unvaccinated. This needs to be resolved. In any case, we are in uncharted waters now. Has the virus evolved to escape vaccine selection, or ADE?


Despite 'Delta' Alarmism, U.S. Covid Deaths At Lowest Level Since March 2020


Despite ‘Delta’ Alarmism, US COVID Deaths Are At Lowest Level Since March 2020, Harvard And Stanford Professors Explain




If you judged the US’s current COVID-19 situation only by the headlines, you’d come away thinking that we’re spiraling back into pandemic disaster. Localities like Los Angeles County and St. Louis have reimposed mask mandates on their citizens, and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention just revised its “guidance” to say that, actually, fully vaccinated individuals should still wear masks in certain situations. Meanwhile, mainstream media coverage of the rise of the “Delta variant” is soaked in alarmism.


Yet at the same time that all this alarm is mounting, the actual number of COVID-19 deaths is at a nadir. Harvard Medical School Professor Martin Kulldorff pointed this out on Twitter, writing that “In [the] USA, COVID mortality is now the lowest since the start of the pandemic in March 2020.”

He shared this graph from OurWorldInData which clearly shows how COVID deaths per million are at, relatively speaking, extreme lows. Far more people were dying from COVID-19 months ago as we were winding down restrictions than are dying today as some call to reinstate them.

Now, some would cite rising COVID-19 case counts or hospitalizations in certain parts of the country as evidence that the pandemic is indeed once again spiraling out of control. But many COVID-19 cases recorded as positive are either asymptomatic or come with very mild symptoms — especially the cases confirmed among vaccinated individuals — so high case counts are not necessarily proof of a serious problem.


Hospitalizations are concerning, yes, but primarily insofar as they lead to high numbers of deaths, which, thankfully, is not the case so far with the Delta variant.

Others would say that deaths are a “lagging indicator” that come in several weeks after the increased spread of the disease. But the Delta variant has been spreading in the US for months now, and deaths have remained relatively flat, in part due to widespread vaccination.

So, there’s simply no reason to expect the long downward trend in deaths shown in the above graph to suddenly spike upwards. And we can’t make public policy based on worst-case scenarios.

That’s right: despite all the alarmism and clamor for renewed restrictions on our liberty, there’s not really been a resurgence in the state of the COVID-19 crisis itself.

Of course, proponents of big government and government officials themselves will be the last ones to acknowledge the reality that the most dangerous phase of this pandemic has long since come to an end in the US. Why? Because the rhetoric of “emergency” and “crisis” is the government’s favorite tool to use in expanding and maintaining its power over our lives.

“‘Emergencies’ have always been the pretext on which the safeguards of individual liberty have eroded,” as Nobel-Prize-winning economist Freidrich Hayek put it. “And once they are suspended it is not difficult for anyone who has assumed emergency powers to see to it that the emergency will persist.”


Examples of this timeless truth abound throughout history up until present day: from the internment of Japanese-Americans during World War II to the now-permanent infringements on our civil liberties after 9/11 to the sweeping expansion of government control during the COVID-19 pandemic.

But, whether politicians like it or not, the COVID-19 crisis is largely over. So don’t fall for cynical arguments from power-hungry individuals who want their “emergency” powers to become permanent.


UK Lockdown Advocate Now Says Official Covid Infection (Dropping) Rates 'Fishy'


UK Lockdown Advocate Now Says Official COVID Infection Rates Are "Fishy" Because They're Dropping



Lockdown advocates who have repeatedly cited rising infection rates as a reason to maintain restrictions are now saying that those same figures are “fishy,” “suspicious,” and unreliable after they started to drop.


Who are the ‘conspiracy theorists’ now?

Reported COVID cases in the UK have dropped by 22% since Thursday last week and cases are falling in every English local authority.

Up until Wednesday, official day to day statistics showed that cases had dropped for seven days in a row, despite restrictions largely being lifted on July 19th.

The fact that the Euro football championships, ‘freedom day’ and the delta variant haven’t combined to create an explosion of new COVID cases seems to have disappointed lockdown advocates like Professor Tim Spector.

According to Spector, who previously called for mask mandates to remain indefinitely, the “sudden drop” in people testing positive for the virus in the government’s data is “very suspicious”.

“It’s dropped something like 30% in two days, which is pretty much unheard of in pandemics, and remember this is happening without restrictions, without lockdowns, without some sudden event,” said Spector.

“To me, it looks a bit fishy. It looks as if there’s some other explanation for this other than suddenly the virus has given up,” he added.


OK, calm down Mr. tin foil hat.

Spector’s rhetoric is particularly funny given that the media has previously demonized anyone who questions official government statistics on COVID infection rates and death tolls as dangerous conspiracy theorists.

Now that the numbers appear to be disproving the argument for lockdown, suddenly those numbers are “suspicious” and unreliable.

As we previously highlighted, Professor Neil Ferguson, the epidemiologist who predicted there would be as many as 200,000 COVID cases a day by this point, was also proven spectacularly wrong yet again.

This also speaks to the fact that lockdown advocates who have built up significant acclaim and media exposure over the last 16 months are seemingly upset that the pandemic might be coming to an end.


Irate Twitter mobs who have repeatedly demanded harsher lockdowns also seem to be genuinely upset when COVID infection rates and death tolls begin to drop.

While all the time grandstanding as “kind” and “compassionate” as they screech at you for “killing granny.”





Psychopathic Authoritarianism


Psychopathic Authoritarianism and the Covidian Cult It has Created
Joseph Sansone




Imagine a new line of automobiles called The Safety Car which is designed to prevent motor vehicular death. The Safety Car has resulted in 12,000 deaths and 500,000 injuries (these numbers may be severely underreported) and also may increase the severity of impacts in the event of an auto accident. Now imagine that instead of recalling this faulty vehicle, elements of your government and the media, are blaming you for the injuries and deaths resulting from this Safety Car, and are openly talking about forcing you to buy this automobile, and if you refuse, deny you the right to buy food, work and leave your home. And even put you in a camp with others that did not buy this Safety Car.


This is the situation that exists in America. We are in the midst of a human made catastrophe. We have witnessed the systematic brainwashing of more people than ever before in history. Members of the Covidian cult will simply disregard the evidence and cling more rigidly to their emotionalized beliefs. They will continue to repeat what they have been told. Pervasive repetition and the irrational fear of death, as well as guilt, coupled with censorship of opposing data and medical views, have been used to manipulate and control. Science with censorship, is not science. Still, shocking people out of their slumber may yet be possible.


Robert Malone, MD, Inventor of mRNA technology says vaccine is causing Covid to be more severe. Dr. Malone warns that the vaccine is causing antibody induced enhancement. In short it makes the virus worse for those that have been vaccinated. Dr. Malone reports that a simple titer test of those with Covid that are vaccinated and unvaccinated will reveal this. Dr. Muntagnier, the French virologist that discovered HIV, and 2008 Nobel Prize winner for medicine, also calls for vaccine to be pulled off market. Dr. Muntagnier says the vaccine is creating the variants and that it makes Covid worse if you get it. 

He also says that people will get neurodegenerative diseases in 5-10 years and that young people may pass on effects to their future children. While the media and government are blaming the unvaccinated for the vaccinated getting sick the government of the United Kingdom published data clearly showing that the vaccinated had a much higher rate of hospitalization and a much higher fatality rate than the unvaccinated. Dr. Bossche, another prominent virologist is calling for a halt to mass vaccination and warns that variants created by the Covid shot will eventually create higher mortality rates in the vaccinated and the unvaccinated.


Dr. Charles Hoffe, a Canadian medical doctor has reported that 62% of his heart patients have micro blood clots. Hoffe reports that these blood clots do not show up on scans and are only detected by conducting a D Dimer test 4-7 days after getting a Covid shot. Hoffe reports that those that become symptomatic have a 3 year life expectancy. Recently prominent European physicians co-authored an expert medical opinion advising adults not to get the Covid shot and report that D Dimer blood tests reveal that micro blood clots (these do not show up on scans) are common. These physicians go as far as stating that if you give this Covid shot to a child, you are committing a crime.

Dr Peter McCullough MD has written 46 peer-reviewed publications on COVID-19 and is considered among the world’s experts on the topic, and is one of thew worlds most cited medical researchers. Dr. McCullough, who has sat on drug safety boards in the past, warns about blood clots and other issues such as spike proteins that can’t be extricated from the body. Dr. McCullough originally supported the vaccine until he saw what it was doing to his patients, now calls for its recall from the market and says that it should have been pulled from the market in February of 2021.


Studies routinely show that face masks are not effective at preventing viral transmission, and are harmful to health and mental health. Studies now have routinely shown that lockdowns did not reduce the spread of Covid. It may not actually be possible to measure the increased suicides, drug overdoses, and deaths due to lack of medical care resulting from the lockdowns and face mask polices as they may play out for years to come. Still, make no mistake about it, the increase in these deaths were caused by government action. It is almost certain that the mental health disorders created by masks and lockdowns, and what amounts to government and the media engaging in a campaign of psychological warfare, will last for years. Maybe the greatest crime is the government and medias suppression of Ivermectin, which studies support the effectiveness of and some doctors assert that its use would have reduced fatalities from Covid by 85%.


The suppression of repurposed therapeutics, mandatory face masks, lockdowns, and vaccines, amount to crimes against humanity.

 The Bill of Rights must be defended. It is painfully clear that the government does not have the authority to impose forced or coerced masks, quarantines, or vaccines. 

Medical freedom is a human right. A vigorous defense of the Nuremberg Code is now required to prevent further human made catastrophe. 

It is clearly a violation of the Nuremberg Code to force or coerce medical procedures, let alone experimental medical procedures, on humans. 



The New Lapid-Bennett Government Downgrades Israel's Operations In Middle-East - Russia Has Upper Hand


How Putin understands the Lapid-Bennett government




On Thursday it was reported that the IDF is planning to change its tactics in Syria and will base its operations against Iranian targets in the area on long-range standoff munitions rather than on airstrikes. Obviously, the move will downgrade Israel's operational prowess.

The report of Israel's new policy of restraint followed the big story of the week: Russia's announcement that it assisted the Syrians in intercepting four missiles shot by IAF F-16s at targets in Syria for the first time. Russia's statement came in tandem with its announcement that it is abrogating its 2015 agreement with Israel to coordinate and deconflict Israel's military operations in Syria from Russian forces in the country.


Russia's decision is a major strategic blow.




Now that the Russians have abrogated the Putin-Netanyahu deal, the men who ousted Netanyahu from power face the same bleak scenarios Netanyahu confronted with the arrival of Russian forces in Syria. But unlike Netanyahu, neither Prime Minister Naftali Bennett nor Foreign Minister Yair Lapid have the ability to fly to Russia and convince Putin to reinstate the deal. This isn't because of anything that Putin or Netanyahu did. It is because of something that Lapid and Bennett have done.


Shortly after Bennett and Lapid took office, Lapid spoke on the phone with US Secretary of State Anthony Blinken and announced that he had committed Israel to a policy of "no surprises" vis-a-vis the Biden administration. This commitment devastated Israel's international standing. If Netanyahu's speech to Congress ended the international perception of Israel as a second-rate power and a US client, and transformed Israel's standing to that of a regional power; Lapid's "no surprises" commitment downgraded Israel back to its previous status.

With the threats arrayed against it, a unilateral Israeli move that limits its operational freedom by committing it to provide the US with prior notification of its operations makes no sense in the best of times. It is downright irrational when the Biden administration is feverishly trying to reinstate Obama's nuclear deal as a means to reinstate his strategy of abandoning US support for Israel and the Sunni Arab states and realigning the US towards Iran.

From Riyadh to Gaza, Abu Dhabi to Tehran, from Beijing to Brussels to Moscow world leaders understand what happened. The strategic blow Israel took from Russia this week will doubtlessly be followed from many. Israel's allies and enemies will assess their options in light of the Lapid-Bennett government's embrace of dependence on a hostile administration in Washington.



Tens Of Thousands Of Covid-19 Vaccine Injured Fight Censorship


Tens Of Thousands Of COVID-19 Vaccine Injured Fight Censorship To Bring Their Stories To The Public



A website that claims to have “1000 COVID Stories” of people injured by the COVID-19 injections features some heart-wrenching videos.


Are you thinking of getting a COVID shot?

Is your teenager being forced to take a shot in order to return to college?

Do you have friends on the fence about vaccines?

Are you concerned about their possible side effects?

If you go online and do simple research on the term “COVID Vaccine Side Effects” you are presented with a gaggle of links that are strangely similar.

“Side effects are minor and common.” “Side effects are a sign that your vaccine is working properly.”

When you visit YouTube and do the same search, again, the videos have a consistent theme. “The risk from the vaccines are less than the risks from COVID” and “vaccine side effects are actually a good thing.”

If you post a comment or video on Facebook about vaccine side effects your post is deleted and your account may be closed.

But when you go to an uncensored website like Bitchute.com or Rumble.com and do the same search, you see hundreds of videos from real people who have had horrific side effects from their injections.

This website is dedicated to sharing the truth about these people and their testimonials.

Watch for yourself and make up your own mind. Is it worth it to risk life-changing and even fatal side effects from a vaccine for a disease that is survived by 99.98% of people under 70?

Below, you will find countless stories of side effects directly from those involved, or sadly, if they died, from their relatives. (Source.)

I wish some of these videos had more documentation, but some of these stories we have also covered in the past.

More and more of these people are gathering online to find support and help each other, as their injuries are denied to be related to the COVID-19 injections, and their own doctors usually have no answers, or sometimes not even a desire to help them.

Here are some other places online where people are gathering to tell their COVID-19 “vaccine” stories.

CDC: Vaccinated As Likely To Spread Covid As Unvaccinated


CDC Says Vaccinated May Be as Likely to Spread COVID as Unvaxxed, as Reports of Serious Injuries After Vaccines Surge


Data released today by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) showed total reports of serious injuries following COVID vaccination, across all age groups, spiked by 14,717 — to 63,000 — compared with the previous week.

The data comes directly from reports submitted to the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS), the primary government-funded system for reporting adverse vaccine reactions in the U.S.

Every Friday, VAERS makes public all vaccine injury reports received as of a specified date, usually about a week prior to the release date. Reports submitted to VAERS require further investigation before a causal relationship can be confirmed.

Data released today show that between Dec. 14, 2020 and July 23, 2021, a total of 518,770 total adverse events were reported to VAERS, including 11,940 deaths — an increase of 535 over the previous week. There were 63,102 serious injuries reported during the same time period — up 14,717 compared with the previous week.


Excluding “foreign reports” filed in VAERS, 435,007 adverse events, including 5,612 deaths and 34,890 serious injuries, were reported in the U.S.

In the U.S., 340.4 million COVID vaccine doses had been administered as of July 23. This includes: 137 million doses of Moderna’s vaccine, 189 million doses of Pfizer and 13 million doses of the Johnson & Johnson (J&J) COVID vaccine.

Of the 5,612 U.S. deaths reported as of July 23, 14% occurred within 24 hours of vaccination, 20% occurred within 48 hours of vaccination and 34% occurred in people who experienced an onset of symptoms within 48 hours of being vaccinated.


This week’s U.S. data for 12- to 17-year-olds show:

  • 15,086 total adverse events, including 909 rated as serious and 16 reported deaths — one less than what VAERS showed last week. Two of the nine deaths were suicides.
  • The most recent reported deaths include a 13-year-old boy (VAERS I.D. 1463061) who died after receiving a Moderna vaccine, a 16-year-old boy (VAERS I.D. ​​1466009) who died after receiving his second dose of Pfizer and a 16-year-old boy (VAERS I.D. 1475434) who died with an enlarged heart six days after receiving his first Pfizer dose.
Other reports include two 13-year-old boys (VAERS I.D. 1406840  and 1431289) who died two days after receiving a Pfizer vaccine, three 15-year-olds (VAERS I.D. 11879181382906 and 1242573), three 16-year-olds (VAERS I.D. 14206301225942 and 1386841) and three 17-year-olds (VAERS I.D. 11994551388042 and 1420762).


This week’s total U.S. VAERS data, from Dec. 14, 2020 to July 23, 2021, for all age groups combined, show:

Internal CDC document reveals vaccinated, even if not sick, can spread virus

The CDC now says even those people fully vaccinated for COVID are able to get, and spread, the virus.

According to internal documents obtained by The Washington Post, the CDC said it’s time to “Acknowledge the war has changed.”


The document outlined unpublished data showing fully vaccinated people might spread the Delta variant at the same rate as unvaccinated people, CNN reported.

It concludes the delta variant is “highly contagious, likely to be more severe” and that “breakthrough infections may be as transmissible as unvaccinated cases.”


“‘I think the central issue is that vaccinated people are probably involved to a substantial extent in the transmission of delta,’ Jeffrey Shaman, a Columbia University epidemiologist, wrote in an email after reviewing the CDC slides.

“‘In some sense, vaccination is now about personal protection — protecting oneself against severe disease. Herd immunity is not relevant as we are seeing plenty of evidence of repeat and breakthrough infections.’”


Since January, people who got infected after vaccination make up an increasing portion of hospitalizations and in-hospital deaths among COVID patients, according to the CDC documents. That trend coincides with the spread of the Delta variant.


The Post also reported today on a CDC study revealing three-fourths of people infected in a Massachusetts COVID outbreak were vaccinated. The report bolsters the hypothesis that vaccinated people can spread the more transmissible variant, and may be a factor in the summer surge of infections.

The data, detailed in the CDC’s Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report, provided key evidence that convinced agency scientists to reverse recommendations on mask-wearing and advise that vaccinated individuals wear masks in indoor public settings in some circumstances, The Post reported.

Thus far, researchers have focused on viral load — a term for how much of the virus is present in infected peoples’ bodies — which can affect transmissibility and severity. Infections with the Delta variant lead to higher levels of virus in the body, even in breakthrough cases in fully vaccinated individuals, the document said.

If vaccinated people get infected anyway, they have as much virus in their bodies as unvaccinated people — that means they’re as likely to infect someone else as unvaccinated people who get infected, CNN reported.

“The bottom line was that, in contrast to the other variants, vaccinated people, even if they didn’t get sick, got infected and shed virus at similar levels as unvaccinated people who got infected,” Dr. Walter Orenstein, who heads the Emory Vaccine Center and who viewed the documents, told CNN.
