Anti-Vaxxers Are Trying to 'Undo' Their  Vaccines by Bathing in Borax

As vaccine mandates sweep the nation, more individuals who were once hesitant to get vaccinated for Covid-19 are buckling down to get the jab. With 80 percent of eligible adults having received at least one dose, a new trend has risen among those who believe the vaccine is dangerous: Attempting to "undo" their vaccine after getting it.

Carrie Madej, D.O., an osteopathic doctor with over 43,000 Instagram followers, was seen on video encouraging her followers to take a bath with baking soda for “radiation," epsom salt for “poisons,” and Borax, a household cleaning agent and laundry brightener tossed in.

On Podcasts and Radio, Misleading Covid-19 Talk Goes Unchecked
False statements about vaccines have spread on the “Wild West” of media, even as some hosts die of virus complications.
Audio industry executives appear less likely than their counterparts in social media to try to check dangerous speech. TruNews, a conservative Christian media outlet founded by Mr. Wiles, who used the phrase “Jew coup” to describe efforts to impeach former President Donald J. Trump, has been banned by YouTube. His podcast remains available on iHeart.

Asked about his false statements concerning Covid-19 vaccines, Mr. Wiles described pandemic mitigation efforts as “global communism.” “If the Needle Nazis win, freedom is over for generations, maybe forever,” he said in an email.

The reach of radio shows and podcasts is great, especially among young people: A recent survey from the National Research Group, a consulting firm, found that 60 percent of listeners under 40 get their news primarily through audio, a type of media they say they trust more than print or video.

“People develop really close relationships with podcasts,” said Evelyn Douek, a senior research fellow at Columbia University’s Knight First Amendment Institute. “It’s a parasocial medium. There’s something about voice that humans really relate to.”

Marc Bernier, a talk radio host in Daytona Beach, Fla., whose show is available for download or streaming on iHeart’s and Apple’s digital platforms, was among the talk radio hosts who died of Covid-19 complications after expressing anti-vaccination views on their programs. The deaths made national news and set off a cascade of commentary on social media. What drew less attention was the industry that helped give them an audience.

On a June episode, Mr. Bernier said, after referring to unvaccinated people: “I’m one of them. Judge me if you want.” The next month, he cited an unfounded claim that “45,000 people have died from taking the vaccine.” In his final Twitter post, on July 30, Mr. Bernier accused the government of “acting like Nazis” for encouraging Covid-19 vaccines.

Jimmy DeYoung Sr., whose program was available on iHeart, Apple and Spotify, died of Covid-19 complications after making his show a venue for false or misleading statements about vaccines. One of his frequent guests was Sam Rohrer, a former Pennsylvania state representative who likened the promotion of Covid-19 vaccines to Nazi tactics and made a sweeping false statement. “This is not a vaccine, by definition,” Mr. Rohrer said on an April episode. “It is a permanent altering of my immune system, which God created to handle the kinds of things that are coming that way.” Mr. DeYoung thanked his guest for his “insight.” Mr. DeYoung died four months later.

Vienna brothel offers vaccines and free entry

Come for the vaccine, stay for a little something extra...

A Vienna brothel is providing COVID-19 vaccinations and giving those who take up the offer a 30-minute session with a, quote, 'lady of their choice' if they get the vaccine at the on-site clinic.

Christoph Lielacher is the director.

"And we thought, it is actually a great action to make such a statement, especially in our industry. And now we have a great vaccination site, and we are very popular."



I've been "vaccinated" 3 times this week!

In the US, maybe Biden should give away guns?

@Manbird.  When I first read that my feelings oscillated between:  "Ooh, that is dark...." and "Pucha.  ­¡Me caigo de risa!"   

Was also thinking our United Kingdom mates might interpret the phrase as:  "Ooh, lots of great apartments at attractive prices!"

B.C. COVID-19 denier publicly states he is ill, dies days later
Mak Parhar told his social media followers that he was sick with a sore throat and body chills. However he denied that he had the COVID-19 virus.

File photo: Makhar Singh Parhar speaks at an anti-mask rally in downtown Vancouver. PHOTO BY SCREENSHOT /Youtube

....

In a now deleted Oct. 22 post on Twitch , Parhar told his followers that he was suffering from fatigue, a cough and body chills but that it was not “CON-VID.”

A day before he died, he posted a video on Facebook in which he talks about various topics and can be seen coughing. He said he has been sick for three weeks and again denied that it was “CON-VID.”

Parhar also said he took Ivermectin, a controversial horse deworming drug that Canadian authorities have warned against using to treat COVID-19.

...

Last year, Parhar was charged with violating the Quarantine Act after returning from an out-of-country flat earth conference called Flatoberfest 2020 — a one-day gathering of self-described “alternative cosmology enthusiasts.”
