Bird Flu ‘Fearmongering’ as CDC Finds ‘No Evidence’ of Human-to-Human Transmission

‘No evidence’ of human-to-human transmission of bird flu (H5N1) has been identified, says a new study funded by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and published Tuesday at the New England Journal of Medicine (NEJM).

The study concluded:

In the cases identified to date, A(H5N1) viruses generally caused mild illness, mostly conjunctivitis, of short duration, predominantly in U.S. adults exposed to infected animals; most patients received prompt antiviral treatment. No evidence of human-to-human A(H5N1) transmission was identified. PPE use among occupationally exposed persons was suboptimal, which suggests that additional strategies are needed to reduce exposure risk. (Funded by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.)

“All the case patients who were exposed to infected poultry were involved in depopulation activities,” CDC also reports.

Harvey Risch, M.D., professor emeritus of epidemiology at the Yale School of Public Health and Yale School of Medicine, told Lumen-News the CDC study “shows that the human bird flu cases that have occurred to date are essentially in people with workplace exposures to infected animals.”

2025: Derailing Trump with Bird Flu & the Resurrection of the mRNA Vaccine

Over these last few days of 2024, there has been a plethora of news warning about a possible bird flu pandemic in 2025.

I know what you’re thinking. Karen, couldn’t you have picked a more positive topic for the last day of the year?

Maybe tomorrow.

We need to remind ourselves about mRNA vaccines and that pesky bird flu and a few of the crazy things that we’ve been subjected to so we can better face the crazy things to come.

So, let’s start with Magical mRNA.

“You can basically do anything with synthetic RNA/DNA. It’s like a computer program…. You could probably stop aging, reverse it if you want. You could turn someone into a frigging butterfly if you want with the right sequence. I mean, caterpillars do it.” ~ Elon Musk

As we go through this short piece, remember Musk’s words and remind yourself that it isn’t just about disease or even money, our conditioned obsession with heath and curing it with drugs is the most critical method transhumanists have to convince he masses to allow themselves to be experimented on.

Just yesterday, Newsweek warned:

The first severe human bird flu case in the United States was reported in Louisiana earlier this month.

Genetic analysis found the virus had mutated, making it more easily transmissible to humans, the CDC said.

The agency called the mutations “concerning’ and “a reminder that A(H5N1) viruses can develop changes during the clinical course of a human infection.”

For President Trump, this could be like Groundhog Day. Not only will he be expected to stop World War III; he might just need to save us from another pandemic.

Only this time, half the population isn’t going to believe any of it.

  • Will he order another “Operation Warp Speed?”
  • What if people really do start dying, not just the elderly, but young people. Children. Will he be blamed for how unprepared we are?
  • All those middle America folks who voted for Trump, all the farmers and laborers, how much will they suffer?
  • And if Trump starts deporting the illegals who work on the farms, will the farmers suddenly decide illegals aren’t so bad after all and turn against Trump?
  • Who will be willing to take the place of desperate illegal workers who work for low wages and are willing to put their health in danger?
  • Which experts will Trump choose to advise him? It won’t be Dr. Fauci. What will Robert Kennedy Jr recommend, will he suddenly start supporting vaccines?

A second pandemic doesn’t bode well for a nation so divided, especially when it was the first pandemic that made us this way. A pandemic that our government says it still doesn’t know where it came from.

“The Pandemic clock is ticking.”

So says Dr. Michael Osterholm, director of the Center for Infectious Disease Research and Policy at the University of Minnesota, urging officials to examine what they learned during the COVID-19 pandemic and use it to prepare for the next pandemic. That should set off all sorts of alarm bells.

Lockdown Fanatic Leana Wen Pushing Bird Flu Jabs Before Trump Takes Office

Leana Wen – the former Baltimore Health Commissioner who burst onto the scene during the Boston Marathon Bombing – only to recommend forcing the unvaccinated to remain indoors during the COVID pandemic – is now pushing the Biden administration to expedite the approval of a bird flu vaccine before Donald Trump’s inauguration.

During a Sunday interview with CBS News‘s “Face the Nation,” Wen said “There are two main things they should be doing in the days that they have left,” adding “The first is to get testing out there… we should have learned out lesson from Covid that just because we are not testing, it doesn’t mean the virus isn’t there.”

Wen then said that the “second very important thing” is that the Biden administration work to secure FDA authorization for the widespread use of bird flu vaccine, adding that Trump has “people coming in with anti-vaccine stance.”

Bird Flu ‘Emergency’ in California Is a Case of Psychological Bioterrorism

Sometimes I feel like a broken record when writing about infectious disease-based public health threats.

There are real threats, such as multi-drug resistant Tuberculosis, but these are rarely discussed. And then there is the psychological (eg. information) bioterrorism, the fear porn, a hyped narrative concerning an existential threat repeatedly injected into public discourse and then intentionally amplified to the point that it becomes a perverse and, in some cases, disabling obsession for many.

Psychological bioterrorism and fear porn

There are many who benefit from psychological (or information) bioterrorism. As discussed in 2017 by former Soviet-Russian Foreign Intelligence Service (SVR) intelligence officer Dr. Alexander Kouzminov:

Objects or target audience of an ‘active operation’ <of psychological bioterrorism> may be – governments, high-ranking military officials, secret services of the enemy, political parties, banks, companies, etc. as well as ordinary populations, where the aim is to cause some kind of an impact and effect….

Information (or psychological) bioterrorism – this is a form of global influence. It can be even more effective, from the view of consequences and harm, which it can cause. Firstly, info-bioterrorism, in comparison with an act of bioterror is not and does not apply for strategic or military applications, political assassination, and acts of sabotage – to disrupt local infrastructures, to harm the health of local population, animals, or disrupt the environment of a certain country. Secondly, its organisers and interested organizations, use the potential pandemic threat, in order to reach certain results…

Propaganda is the main weapon to influence people, especially if they are not well informed. An ordinary human being it appears only has a ‘surface’ knowledge about how real these kinds of threats are, and is used to rely on the opinions of mass media.

An AI-generated answer to Brave search query “Fearporn Definition” states the following:

Fear porn refers to mainstream media content that deliberately and enticingly plays on people’s fears about disaster, disease, and death. It is often used to describe sensationalized and exaggerated reports or stories that aim to provoke strong emotional reactions, such as fear, anxiety, or outrage. This type of content can be found in various forms of media, including news, social media, and online articles.

Some definitions of fear porn also include the idea that it is used to manipulate people’s emotions and attention, often for the purpose of increasing viewership, engagement, or clicks. Fear porn can be seen as a form of psychological manipulation, as it preys on people’s natural fear responses to create a sense of drama or excitement.

In some cases, fear porn can also be used to describe conspiracy theories or misinformation that is spread online, often with the intention of generating fear, anxiety, or outrage. This type of content can be particularly harmful, as it can spread misinformation and perpetuate harmful stereotypes or biases.

Overall, fear porn is a term used to describe a type of media content that uses fear and sensationalism to engage audiences and manipulate their emotions.

The bottom line here is that many national and global actors have long been known to exploit existential fear of infectious disease for political and economic benefit, and that there is a standard playbook for how this is performed. Therefore, the first thing that should come to your mind when you see this type of messaging being deployed and amplified in corporate media is the question, “Who and what is benefitting from this messaging?”

Moderna Creates new mRNA Vaccine

If the aftermath of the first widespread mRNA vaccine was not enough to deter the public, the government and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) partnered with Moderna to create a new DNA-altering vaccination for the bird flu.

And here we go again – Moderna said that their most recent vaccine is specifically for this variant (2.3.4.4b) of the flu, which has not spread from person-to-person contact. The Science Translational Medicine published Moderna’s study of the vaccine in which they exposed ferrets to the virus. Moderna won a $176 million federal funding package back in JULY to develop this vaccination.

There are only 60 known cases of this virus among humans, and nearly everyone who contracted it was exposed to infected cattle. California has already declared a state of emergency, and every politician and pharmaceutical company that enjoyed the power grab of the first pandemic is eager for the next. I cannot fathom why anyone would take this vaccine when the last mRNA vaccination FAILED. It failed to prevent the spread or transmission of the virus and injured far more people than it helped. This is why the current investigations into COVID must remain ongoing — we cannot afford a repeat of 2020.

We seriously need MAJOR political reform. Anyone who supports the absolute immunity for the Pharmaceutical Industry should be removed from office – NOW! If one in every 10,000 General Motors cars blew up when you just turned the key but has absolute immunity from lawsuits, why fix the problem? These people know that even with normal vaccines, there is also a portion of people who will die. That is just a matter of fact. That is why they bribed our politicians for absolute immunity. Why ask for that unless you were getting sued?

USDA Orders Raw Milk Testing Under Guise Of Bird Flu Amid War On Small Farms

Nationwide demand for raw milk has never been higher, as out-of-control bureaucrats in their ivory towers in Washington, DC, exploit bird flu outbreaks in dairy herds to financially crush small farms while ensuring that large-scale farms owned by mega corporations, which produce questionable/unhealthy food (hence America’s obesity crisis), remain in control of the nation’s food supply chain.

The latest overreach in the war on raw milk comes as the US Department of Agriculture (USDA) ordered dairy farmers to work with the federal agency to test for bird flu (H5N1).

On Friday, USDA Secretary Tom Vilsack wrote in a statement, “This new milk testing strategy will build on those steps to date and will provide a roadmap for states to protect the health of their dairy herds.”

“Among many outcomes, this will give farmers and farmworkers better confidence in the safety of their animals and ability to protect themselves, and it will put us on a path to quickly controlling and stopping the virus’ spread nationwide,” Vilsack said.

The new testing mandate gives the federal government yet another foothold in controlling the nation’s milk supply and moves one step closer to banning raw milk, all under the guise of combating “bird flu.”

Bird Flu: The “Next Pandemic” is right on schedule

We haven’t published anything about bird flu since June. There hasn’t been much to say. Nevertheless, I still regularly comb through journals and news sites, ensuring we don’t miss anything potentially important.

During one such search yesterday evening I found this article in the journal Science, its title asking simply:

Why hasn’t the bird flu pandemic started?

…and, you know what, that’s a good question. Why hasn’t the bird flu pandemic started?

Not literally, of course. The bird flu “pandemic” won’t ever really start. If or when it is declared it will be a lie, just like Covid.

The question is why haven’t they started the big roll out yet?

That is obviously the plan after all.

The establishment has been signposting “the next pandemic” since before Covid sidled off the world stage. “Pandemic preparedness” has been a buzz phrase at all the intergovernmental panels and UN summits for at least two years. All the indications were that bird flu was the anointed successor.

But it’s all come to nothing so far.

Bird flu hasn’t become “the next pandemic”, it hasn’t become really anything at all, it’s barely even grazed the major news cycle.

Instead, the story has been stuck in a strange holding pattern, circling around with dire warnings of imminent danger, only to swoop away from the runway before its wheels touch down.

A pot that never boils despite the fact nobody’s really watching.

Why hasn’t the bird flu pandemic happened yet? What are they waiting for?

Well, Donald Trump, apparently, amongst other things.

That’s isn’t speculation, it’s definite messaging. It looks as if some sort of narrative about Trump failing to do enough, or the right things to handle the “crisis” might be in the offing.

FDA approves Gates-backed bird flu vaccine trial: ‘Disaster waiting to happen’

The FDA has approved the first phase of human trials for a self-amplifying mRNA bird flu vaccine developed by Arcturus Therapeutics, funded by the US government and the Gates Foundation. This vaccine, targeting the H5N1 virus, introduces an enzyme prompting cells to produce more mRNA, leading to sustained antigen production, which experts warn could lead to prolonged immune activation and unknown health risks.

Epidemiologist Dr. Nicolas Hulscher described the FDA’s approval as an opportunity for Arcturus to “experiment with injecting humans with H5N1 bird flu replicon mRNA.” The clinical study is funded by the Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority (BARDA), a division of HHS focused on pandemic preparedness. Arcturus also recently received a $928,563 grant from the Gates Foundation, which has long supported mRNA research.

Arcturus claims self-amplifying mRNA vaccines can provide immunity with smaller doses. However, Hulscher warned that even a small dose might be more hazardous due to the vaccine’s self-replicating nature, as the extent of antigen production cannot be precisely measured or controlled.

Arcturus Therapeutics is seeking approval from the FDA to go ahead with self-replicating bird flu vaccine trials

Self-amplifying RNA (“saRNA”), also termed self-replicating RNA (“srRNA”), and self-amplifying mRNA (“sa-mRNA” or “samRNA”) are synonymous terms. Both refer to a synthetic mRNA molecule engineered to replicate itself within host cells.  Vaccines using this self-replicating technology are also called “replicon” vaccines.

In November 2023, Japan approved the use of the first saRNA vaccine against covid.  The vaccine is called Kostaive and is also known as ARCT-154 or, in Vietnam, VBC-COV19-154. It is a CSL and Arcturus Therapeutics vaccine.  At the time of the approval, researchers were hopeful that this was only the beginning for saRNA treatments for infectious diseases and even cancers.  The vaccine, which the Japanese are referring to as the “third atomic bomb,” began to be rolled out in Japan in October 2024 as part of its autumn covid vaccination programme.

There is only explicit mention of Kostaive using STARR mRNA technology. However, it is likely that the Kostaive “vaccine” uses both of Arcturus Therapeutics’ proprietary technologies: STARR (self-transcribing and replicating RNA) mRNA technology and LUNAR (lipid-mediated universal RNA delivery) delivery system.

LUNAR is a nanoparticle delivery system that enables the efficient and targeted delivery of mRNA to cells. STARR is a self-replicating RNA platform that combines with LUNAR to drive “therapeutic” protein expression.

FDA Greenlights New Bill Gates-Funded ARCT-2304 Self-Replicating samRNA ‘Pandemic’ H5N1 Bird Flu Jab

Arcturus Therapeutics, a company specializing in mRNA-based pharmaceuticals, quietly announced Monday that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has granted approval for its Investigational New Drug (IND) application for ARCT-2304, a self-amplifying mRNA (sa-mRNA) injection targeting the H5N1 avian influenza “bird flu” virus.

The FDA has recently come under fire for “failing to meet safety requirements” and “failing to prioritize scientific data quality delivered from FDA laboratories,” according to the U.S. House of Representatives Committee on Energy and Commerce.

The new Arcturus trial, funded by the Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority (BARDA), aims to assess ARCT-2304’s efficacy in preventing pandemic influenza and plans to enroll around 200 healthy adults across the United States.

“Arcturus is actively engaged with the U.S. government to prepare for the next pandemic, and clearance to proceed into the clinic with our STARR® self-amplifying mRNA technology is a key step in this important process,” said Joseph Payne, President & CEO of Arcturus Therapeutics in a press release.

“The Phase 1 clinical trial is designed to evaluate the safety, reactogenicity, and immunogenicity of ARCT-2304 as a potential vaccine to protect against the highly pathogenic H5N1 avian influenza.”
