    Oh, Canada! No stopping the most wicked!

    Prime Minister Justin Trudeau unveiled his government’s mandatory vaccine policy today, a mandate that will require public servants to get their COVID-19 shots by month’s end or be forced into an unpaid leave of absence. All would-be travellers must also be fully vaccinated by Oct. 30 to board a plane, train or marine vessel. […]

    Federal public servants, RCMP and air and rail travellers must be vaccinated by month’s end, Trudeau says

    Since Mulnupiravir is one of the topics today, … I figured some folks would be interested in knowing what investment advise industry thinks of this drug: … from my in-box this morning (Morningstar), …

    Merck’s COVID Treatment Molnupiravir Posts Strong Data, but No Major FVE Impact
    Me ck’s s g f OVID-19 treatment molnupiravir offers patients a needed oral treatment but es ’ s g f c y ffec u f v ue es m e m g f he firm. While we project the drug should post sales over $3 billion in 2022, we expect sales to fall rapidly by 2024 when the pandemic will
    likely be under better control due to higher vaccine utilization. The lack of a long duration of sales for molnupiravi ( s we s p f sh g w h R geb ck B he peu cs) m s he ug’s v u g s for Merck.
    Molnupiravir posted strong efficacy and safety data in mild to moderate disease while offering the important convenience of oral administration. At an interim look into the key clinical study (MOVe-OUT), molnupiravir reduced the risk of death or hospitalization by 50%, which is slightly worse than antibody treatment efficacy of over 80% in some studies. However, the oral administration is a major advance over intravenously infused antibody treatment (infusions generally occur at hospitals and outpatient centers). Additionally, the excellent safety data, with fewer adverse events than placebo, suggests molnupiravir will be used widely versus the more limited antibody treatment uptake.
    We expect over $3 billion in molnupiravir sales in 2022. We expect developed-market pricing to hold up similarly to the implied price of close to $700 per course of therapy based on the U.S. contract order for 1.7 million courses at $1.2 billion. Further, we expect the drug will penetrate over 25% of the market due to its strong efficacy, limited side effects, and convenient delivery. While competitive drugs are under development, we believe molnupiravir has set a high bar for them. Further upside could exist for molnupiravir if the post-exposure prophylaxis in the MOVe-AHEAD study is successful (data likely by

    @ zerosum – …. and I’ll bet the doctors will say, ” It was not because of covid or the vaccine

    Well, … in Alberta at least, you can’t just go to your family clinic or your family doctor if you suspect COVID. This is strictly not permitted! Instead, you have to self-evaluate first! And if your self-evaluation (with a help from a telephone robot) strongly suggests COVID, your instruction is to isolate yourself. Yes! Stay put where you are for 14 days, … and in the meantime, if you sickness progresses to the point that you just can’t stand it anymore, … you are told to call 811 for a health consultation with a nurse. And if 811 nurse determines that you just might – might – need external intervention, … than you are instructed to call 911. 911, at that point, will scrutinize your call one more time and decide if indeed dispatch of ambulance is in order.

    Anyway, that’s how it all works, …

    @ sumac.carol
    In Canada – from https://health-infobase.canada.ca/covid-19/epidemiological-summary-covid-19-cases.html#a2 :

    Cases following vaccination
    Data extracted on September 14, 2021 for cases from December 14, 2020 up until August 28, 2021.

    While the COVID-19 vaccines are effective, there is still a small percentage of the population who are vaccinated that will still be infected with COVID-19 if they are exposed to the virus that causes it. This means that even with high vaccine effectiveness, a small percentage of the population who are vaccinated against COVID-19 will still get sick and some may be hospitalized or even die as a result of their illness. It is also possible that a person could be infected just before or just after vaccination and still get sick. It typically takes about two weeks for the body to build protection after vaccination, so a person could get sick if the vaccine has not had enough time to provide protection.

    Anyway, … at least at my end of the woods – Calgary, Alberta – you just can’t determine what’s the count of hospitalized that are vaccinated. You ask, … answer always is “None of them!”. You ask your family doctor, you ask 811 Health Information desk, you ask a politico, … same answer. Yet, in my sons’s grocery store supermarket (about 350 employees), vaccinated people get sick, take time from work, … some end up in emergency.

    In the media, … there is that constant “Get a vaccine!” It’s true, … a typical message I get nowadays daily in my in-box reads:

    “Alberta is in a state of an of emergency. ICU’s are bursting at the seams mostly from unvaccinated. Casey you must let go of all your research and convictions and get yourself vaccinated. please! –” , …

    Pffit! to all of them, … my response.

    mRNA Vaccines: The Silent Weapon

    mRNA Vaccines: The Silent Weapon

    … a snip:
    Messenger RNA technology in Covid vaccines is not new, even though our leaders have been spinning this mistruth since day one. The Soviets began developing mRNA sequencing almost four decades ago. They were the first to develop “designer” bio-agents under a classified program called Project Factor, one of many classified programs using recombinant DNA (rDNA) technology, known as DNA genetic engineering. Their gene-sequencing included messenger RNA (mRNA), and microRNA (miRNA), and carried the capability of creating horrific epidemics against enemy populations, even severe and debilitating multiple sclerosis.

    Anyway, … re bioweapons: … I was attending a technical college in Eastern Europe in mid-60s. It was a way to avoid a mandatory military draft. Condition was, however, the collage had to provide six 45 minutes period, per week, for military lectures. And as I curiously recall – now, triggered by the above essay – the fact that very first set of lectures were about bioweapons used in warfare, and how to guard yourself – as a field soldier – from it.

    New evidence, including a sworn affidavit from Prof. Luc A. Montagnier, has been submitted to the International Criminal Court alleging World Governments are complicit in genocide and crimes against humanity

    Attorney Melinda C. Mayne, and Kaira S. McCallum submitted a 27-page ‘Request for Investigation’ to the International Criminal Court (ICC) at The Hague back in April 2021 alleging the UK Government and its advisors were complicit in crimes against humanity in the name of Covid-19.

    On the 28th of April 2021, the pair received a formal acknowledgement from the ICC and were assigned a case number – ‘141/21’. Since then the pair have been gathering new evidence to use in their ICC claim and have established connections with lawyers and research scientists from around the world.

    A new press release released on the 17th August, which can be viewed here, confirms that the pair have received sworn affidavits from leading experts including research scientist and nuclear cardiologist Dr Richard M. Fleming, the Nobel Laureate virologist Professor Luc A. Montagnier, and Dr Kevin W. McCairn, a neuroscientist and expert on neurological disease.

    Despite the early lead that Moderna MRNA and BioNTech BNTX hold, and their clear dominance in the pandemic market for COVID-19 vaccine sales, we’re not yet convinced that COVID-19 will require widespread annual booster shots, and if so, whether these companies will remain dominant in the long run.
    Still, we do expect these mRNA companies to dominate the global COVID-19 vaccine market in the short term, particularly as third-dose boosters become available late in 2021. We expect 41% of delivered doses in 2022 to be based on mRNA technology.”

    “Near-Term mRNA Vaccine Demand Boosted by Vector Vaccine Headwinds
    Adenoviral vector vaccines from Johnson & Johnson JNJ and AstraZeneca AZN have seen slower launches due to manufacturing issues and, more recently, potential safety issues.
    The manufacturing issues have cut AstraZeneca’s expected output in the first half of 2021 from its original goal of 300 million doses in the European Union to only 100 million. Johnson & Johnson has lost as many as 15 million doses due to a manufacturing mix-up at a key facility in Baltimore.
    And both vaccines have been linked to rare side effects. Reports of a rare combination of low platelets and dangerous blood clots in recipients of the AstraZeneca vaccine have led several European countries to limit its use to older adults; Denmark has opted to stop using it entirely. The Johnson & Johnson vaccine is back on the U.S. market following a temporary pause while the Food and Drug Administration investigated six blood clots (out of more than 6.8 million administered doses).
    We continue to think the risks of COVID-19 far outweigh the potential safety risks of these vaccines, particularly in regions that do not have access to mRNA vaccines and if age restrictions are considered. That said, these fears are already boosting demand for mRNA vaccines in Europe.”

    “COVID-19 Vaccinations Likely to Be Annual, at Least for Some Groups

    So far, data indicates that vaccines last at least six months, as Pfizer PFE/BioNTech and Moderna have disclosed relatively stable six-month efficacy levels. However, we assume continuing declines will mean that COVID-19 vaccines will be needed annually for certain populations, beyond the pandemic.
    In our base case, we assume that higher-risk populations (infants and the elderly) require annual vaccination and that prices rise slightly due to demand for higher- efficacy vaccines (although we assume some new competition from other mRNA and antigen vaccine players). Our base-case assumptions create a roughly $8 billion annual market, of which we assume Moderna could see $2 billion annually. (We provide our detailed analysis of Moderna in this article.)
    In our bull case, we assume broad recommendations for annual vaccination at a price roughly double that of pandemic prices. This assumes limited competition, continued high mutation rates, and waning immunity from pandemic shots (vaccines appear to remain effective for at least six months, but additional mutations could erode this protection further). Our Moderna bull-case assumptions imply market demand for 1.6 billion vaccine doses annually; at a premium price around $16 a dose globally ($30 in the United States), this would create a $26 billion annual market.
    In our bear case, we assume that only infants require annual shots, due to slowing mutation rates and longer-lived protection from pandemic shots, which levels the playing field for older technologies that take longer to modify and therefore prevents any price increases from pandemic levels. Our Moderna bear-case assumptions imply market demand for 250 million doses annually; at roughly pandemic-level pricing ($8 globally, $15 in the U.S.), this would create a $2 billion annual market.”

    … so you all know.

    Wow! John Michael Greer, … starts his latest harangue with:
    May I be frank? True, … continues with:
    … This is far and away the most malefic mundane chart I have ever studied. Six of the nine planets are clustered in two tight stelliums that are square to each other, and the other three planets are basically out of the picture.

    I have no idea if Donald Trump or anyone in his inner circle pays the least attention to astrology, but if so, I hope he has the great good sense to button up his ego, let his legal challenges slide, prepare to depart the White House with whatever theatrics he considers appropriate, and thank his lucky stars that he can sit out the next four years and get ready for 2024. Whoever is inaugurated this coming January will be walking face first into a buzzsaw. …
