While we have seen a recent flurry of colleges/universities that have dropped COVID-19 vaccine mandates, we are still hovering at around 1000 colleges that mandate primary series vaccines, just under 250 colleges that mandate one booster dose and 21 colleges that specifically mandate the bivalent booster which means that if a student already took a monovalent booster that student would need to take a second booster to be up-to-date as per the college COVID-19 vaccine policy.

To help you navigate this continued nonsense and avoid the dangers of forced COVID-19 vaccination, one of our volunteers collected a list of colleges that have NEVER mandated these experimental medical treatments. ...

💉 Our long international nightmare is over! Sort of. The TSA announced yesterday that the jab passport requirement for international visitors to the U.S. will end on May 11th, when covid will magically no longer be a threat to anybody.

Technically, the TSA hasn’t actually said anything, they just extended the prior deadline, and could potentially extend the passport requirement again. But the short term of the extension — just one month — and the fact the May 11th date was the same one Biden originally announced as the date the state of emergency would end makes most folks conclude this might really be it.

Maybe Novak Djokovic will be purified and cleansed of his impurities on May 11th, and might actually get to play tennis in the U.S. this year.

University of California COVID vaccine mandate policy is under review yet again.

We learned today in an email reply from the General Counsel’s office that the University of California COVID vaccine mandate policy is under review yet again. The last time the University of California Office of the President (UCOP) updated the systemwide COVID vaccine policy was on December 12, 2022. Previous to this update, the COVID vaccine requirements were the primary series and one booster dose. Beginning December 12, 2022, community members were eligible to “opt-out” of booster requirements (except healthcare workers).

The University of California Schools Can No Longer Ignore Public Push Back

On July 15, 2021, the University of California Office of the President (UCOP) announced that faculty, staff, and students would be required to take the primary series COVID-19 vaccine for “the safety and well-being of the entire university community”. On December 21, 2021, the UCOP updated the UC Vaccine Policy requiring all community members to receive the COVID-19 monovalent booster before January 31, 2022. While the UCs announced that medical and religious exemptions would be considered; for many, they were not easy to get…

As stated in our previous post, time is of the essence to voice our concerns over the unscientific and unethical nature of these coercive policies.

Please take some time today to email the General Counsels and the Chancellors of each of the UC colleges to urge them to drop their COVID vaccine mandates most especially while their policy is under review.

Thank you all.

LAUSD Firing Unvaccinated Teachers and Staff – Even With Teacher Shortage
District offering $5,000 bonuses to new, right out of college, non-credentialed teachers

Santa Clara University Students Must Take COVID Vaccines or Withdraw

Maine Becomes Latest US State to End COVID-19 Vaccine Mandates for Health Care Workers
Moronic mandates when the data show the vaccinated are now more likely to catch COVID.

The pandemic is over. We all know the COVID-19 vaccine did not work “as promised” or become even slightly effective. So, why are these 104 colleges still mandating we inject this harmful shot into our children and young adults?

Dr. Clayton Baker Urges Santa Clara University to Drop Their COVID Vaccine Mandates

Just the original two shots, which, of course, are no longer available for most adults. (In April, the Food and Drug Administration changed its recommendation for first-time vaccinations from the two-dose regimen tested in the clinical trials to “a single dose of a bivalent vaccine” - even though we have literally NO evidence of how that vaccine works in unjabbed people. Because science!)

And even for remote employees? Especially for remote employees, friend, the Times is looking out for you!

Besides, a Covid jab requirement is the most efficient way to make sure no one who isn’t woke accidentally slips through. ...

Across the Hudson River from the Times, Rutgers University - New Jersey’s state university, best known for a football team that was held scoreless by the Big 10 powerhouses Minnesota and Maryland last year - is also requiring Covid shots for its students:

All students - including new, returning, transfer, and visiting students - are required to have received the COVID 19 primary vaccination series (two doses) OR the bivarient (one dose) OR have an approved medical or religious exemption.

The most egregious part of this mandate is that whoever wrote it couldn’t even be bothered to get the name of the new shot right. It’s not bivarient, it’s bivalent.

It causes myocarditis either way, though!

Rutgers Set to Disenroll Students on August 15th if Not Compliant with COVID Vaccine Mandates

Providence Hospital System Announces New Mandatory COVID Vaccines for Healthcare Workers
By: Jason Walsh
September 14, 2023

Institutions that continue to enforce the vaccine mandates are responsible for a lot of social carnage. Students are isolated, employees are fired, parents are shamed, friendships are ruined, and families are torn apart. College students, in particular, are facing a deeply unconstitutional and unethical medical mandate that violates one of our fundamental liberties as American citizens.

In order to attend some colleges in the US, particularly some of the most elite universities, prospective students are required to receive the initial series of the COVID-19 vaccine, and sometimes, a booster as well. Those who remain unvaccinated are left with no choice but to scramble for an exemption or forgo college altogether. ...

Sovereignty over our bodies is the most fundamental of all human freedoms. If we don’t own our own bodies, what do we own?

One of the three judges admitted he was “shocked” and “floored” by LAUSD’s ongoing Covid-19 vaccine mandate for its employees as well as by LAUSD’s “irrational” justification for the policy.

Another judge expressed his concern over the breadth of the district court’s decision and declared that the district court’s rationale was clearly wrong.

When LAUSD’s counsel, Connie Michaels, addressed the panel, the judges peppered her with questions, such as: Does it matter whether the shot stops transmission? If the shots don’t stop transmission, what’s the argument for them? Is there any law anywhere that qualifies Jacobson? [Jacobson is a lawsuit brought to the US Supreme Court in 1905, which will be explained in further detail below.] What is the rational basis for saying that a vaccine mandated three years ago continues to work today? What if LAUSD is still requiring the shot twenty years from now, when there is no emergency? How did the school district come up with the premise that it doesn’t matter whether the shot is effective or not? ...

At issue for the plaintiffs is whether LAUSD violated their fundamental right to privacy under the substantive component of the Due Process Clause of the US Constitution. Further, the plaintiffs assert that the vaccine mandate is arbitrary, since it classifies people based on vaccination status in violation of the Equal Protection Clause of the 14th Amendment.

The plaintiffs contend that LAUSD acted arbitrarily when it fired hundreds of employees and displaced hundreds more who had requested exemptions to the mandate. Moreover, the terminations took place even though it was already known that the injections prevented neither transmission nor infection. Thus, the plaintiffs contend, the injections amounted to nothing more than a therapeutic, lacking any public health justification, and as such are a private matter.

A Quick Note About Immigrant Visa Covid Vaccine Requirements

Yes, They're Still Doing it...

I’ve been checking into the medical exam required for my husband’s immigrant visa, in which yes, Covid-19 vaccines are still required. In fact here is the note we received from Bumrungrad Hospital regarding this...

Starting from 1st November 2021, patients whose age 18+ who want to arrange appointment for USA visa must have vaccine certificate showing that they already completed 2 doses of COVID-19 vaccines.

Actors Report Being 'Blacklisted' For Unvaccinated Status

Actor, stunt performer, and director Dorian Kingi says he hasn’t had a job in the entertainment industry in three years because of his vaccine status.

Despite SAG-AFTRA’s promise to protect its members from discrimination, as well as the alleged expiration of its vaccine mandate in May 2023, Mr. Kingi, and others, continue to lose jobs because of an unofficial “blacklist” movie studios have made for those who haven’t taken the vaccine or kept up with the booster schedule.

“With the union’s overall stance on inclusion, diversity, and anti-discrimination, it’s just disheartening that there’s been no middle ground regarding this issue,” Mr. Kingi told The Epoch Times. ...

Twelve hours after actress and SAG-AFTRA member Bekka Prewitt took the vaccine in May 2021, she began experiencing adverse reactions, some of which still affect her today.

“I took the vaccine at 4 in the afternoon, and at 4:00 in the morning, I woke up sick to my stomach and collapsed on the bathroom floor,” she told The Epoch Times. “I immediately felt the lack of ability to control my body. I couldn’t lift my head. That’s when I started to feel like someone was jabbing me in the stomach with a knife.”

Shaking, convulsing, sweating, she said for hours, her body waged a full-scale evacuation effort.

But it didn’t stop there, she said.

“For months, I would have rotating pain throughout my body,” she said.

Though the pain eventually ceased, she said, her menstrual cycle has never been the same.

In a pelvic ultrasound, a complex, multi-pronged cyst was discovered that was larger than a golf ball, she said.

Though many of these symptoms have dissipated, she said she still has an irregular menstrual cycle and has been diagnosed with Hashimoto’s thyroiditis, an autoimmune disease that causes hypothyroidism.

After her initial physician refused to believe the vaccine caused it, she went to her rheumatologist, who agreed that getting a booster wouldn’t be safe, so she wrote her a medical exemption.

Despite her experience, studios have turned her down, and she was fired from a television show for not being boosted in October 2022.

It is January 2024, and Covid vaccine mandates persist at 70 of the top 800 colleges in the US, and who knows if they will ever let them go. If you are a healthcare major, nearly every clinical partner site still mandates that healthcare students take the most updated Covid vaccine (often no exemptions accepted) even if those sites are affiliated with colleges and universities that do not currently mandate Covid vaccines.

It is truly remarkable with all that we have learned about these novel medical treatments that colleges can still coerce students into taking them. In fact, it is truly remarkable that any college ever announced Covid vaccine mandates in the spring of 2021 given that by this time the CDC (upon which the colleges dutifully and explicitly relied) knew they were ineffective at preventing infection and transmission. So, while we have all come to understand that mandating students to take Covid vaccines does very little if anything to protect the vulnerable members of the community, this remains the single biggest reason colleges put forth to explain why they mandate(d) them.

To Get US Residency Requires the Covid Jab. There is a continued requirement that any legally immigrating person coming to the US from another country and seeking residency is absolutely required to get the Covid-19 vaccine, a shot widely admitted not to protect against infection or spread and is associated with injury on a scale without pharmaceutical precedent. There is a darker way to understand this policy move too. It serves as a filtering mechanism. Many people around the world were fleeing shot mandates from their home countries. Adding this one to the list of required injections was a way to signal to the world: the US would not provide any sanctuary to shot refuseniks, so don’t bother even trying.

That doesn't make sense if illegals aren't required also.

GNL says

That doesn't make sense if illegals aren't required also.

It does if the government is trying to harm the population, which they are.
