A record number of U.S workers quit their jobs in September according to the labor department.

Following vaccine mandates, demands for better pay, and better working environments 4.3 million people quit their jobs in September.

The number of job openings was said to be around 10.4 million in September, just short of the record 10.9 million in July.

Thousands of workers at John Deere remain on strike and new unionization efforts have emerged at major companies including Amazon and Starbucks.

Number of people quitting their jobs hits new high in September

The industries that saw the largest increase in job quitting are the arts, entertainment, and recreation industries and the state and local government education industry.

Within our own lives, we have seen firsthand the prices of goods and the wait time for labor skyrocket as businesses try to manage worker shortages.

Facebook is no longer removing posts claiming the coronavirus’ origins are man made.

In light of ongoing investigations into the origin of COVID-19 and in consultation with public health experts, we will no longer remove the claim that COVID-19 is man-made from our apps

Facebook lifts ban on posts claiming COVID-19 was man-made, amid revitalized origins debate

President Biden has ordered U.S intelligence agencies to “redouble their efforts” investigating the origins of COVID-19. U.S intelligence has not said one way or the other rather they definitively think COVID-19 was man-made.

The World Health Organization has said further investigation was needed to determine the virus’s origin.

The coronavirus pandemic has changed the way we live everyday life drastically, so it’s no surprise that as we try to return to some semblance of normal, many people are questioning how that will work.

One of the current questions is how to get crowds to return to professional sporting events safely. A soccer game in Europe in February of 2020 was considered one of the first “super-spreader” events in which 7,000 of the more than 40,000 attendees contracted covid-19.

In March of 2021, a poll by the Washington Post/University of Maryland showed that only 42% of those surveyed would be comfortable attending a sporting event.

The solution for many people may lay in biometrics, the digital analysis of fingerprints or faces, designed for contactless ordering of food and drinks. Technology like this was already being worked on for sporting events, covid-19 has only pushed the timeline forward. Similar technology is being used already around the world.

The use of biometric technology like this raises concerns about privacy for many people. Biometric technology gathers and stores our personal data. States in the U.S, Texas, Washington, Arkansas, New York, and California have passed biometric legislation. The European Union’s privacy watchdog called for a total ban on biometrics.

Donnie Scott, IDEMIA’s vice president of public safety, says his company allows fans to opt out of the use of their biometric data during a game — and automatically purges that data from its servers after the game is over.

Biometrics will get sports fans back in stadiums

Russell Brand shared his thoughts on the prospect of vaccine passports in a recent video while examining some of the problems with tracking those who are vaccinated.

One of the biggest problems with the vaccine passport is how the vaccine data will be controlled, and who will control it. In the US, we don’t have a universal health care plan, and consequently, we don’t have a database to store information like that. Because of this, big tech has since stepped in with its own ideas for databases to track those who are vaccinated and those who aren’t. To those who pay attention to the track record of big tech, this is extremely concerning. These companies don’t have a history of protecting the best interest of the people.

Additionally, the government itself has a poor track record of keeping its word. With promises that something like a vaccine passport would only be temporary, maybe for a year or so many people are reluctant to trust this based on experiences such as the patriot act following 911.

“Often disasters and times of crisis are used to leverage further power for already powerful entities” 

Vaccine Passports: THIS Is Where It Leads

Of course, not everyone wants or is able to get the vaccine. As Brand says in the video, which you can watch below, the concept of vaccine passports raises fears of a “two-tier society” in which those who are vaccinated get to enjoy everyday things like music and sporting events, traveling, or going to the movie theatre, and those who aren’t vaccinated, are shunned from activities that are considered basic freedoms. This is an even bigger problem in a world where we are already in many ways divided like this. Marginalized communities are likely the ones who would pay the consequences of not getting vaccinated. Rather unwilling or unable, many marginalized communities have good reason to reject the vaccine with a history of being hurt by our government and health care systems.

Video evidence shows a police officer in Spain kneeling on the neck of a 14-year-old boy after seeing the boy was not wearing a mask. The incident occurred in Miranda de Ebro in Northern Spain. The officer approached the young man after he observing he was not wearing a mask properly, and the officer reported that the boy ignored his request to put the mask over his face properly.

While trying to identify the boy, his mother arrived. She was also reportedly not wearing a mask. The officer allegedly tried to restrain the boy peacefully but said the teenager tried to attack him. His family has denied these allegations.

While it is unknown how long the officer kneeled on the boy’s neck, the video shows about 60 seconds of it. In the video, the boy’s mother, who was also arrested, is seen hitting the officer attempting to get him off of her son.

At the end of the video, the officer handcuffs the boy. Both the boy and his mother are facing fines for not following the mandatory mask mandate and could see other potential charges such as resisting arrest.

A nurse by the name of Dawn Wooten has sounded the alarm against an ICE detention camp in Georgia that has allegedly performed hysterectomies without consent. The allegations were made earlier last week with claims that several women have had their uteruses removed without consent.

In many cases, women who undergo treatment are told conflicting things. This was the case for one woman who was given multiple explanations as to what procedure she would be undergoing, ranging from having small amounts of tissues scraped away, to having her womb removed entirely. Women were not provided with proper translators, and the doctors did not speak Spanish.

Dr. Ada Rivera, the medical director of the ICE Health Services Corps, which oversees health care in the agency’s detention system, said that the reports would be fully and independently investigated, but that the agency “vehemently disputes the implication that detainees are used for experimental medical procedures.”

Detainees have come forward and pointed to Doctor Mahendra Amin, with claims that he treated patients roughly. Dr. Amin and his lawyer have both denied the allegations against them. The Department of Homeland Security is currently investigating the allegations. The Trump administration rolled back detention center standards after taking office, despite the already substandard conditions that ICE centers are known for.

With the ongoing coronavirus pandemic, major pharmaceutical companies have been working tirelessly to create a vaccine in record time. With the media narrative being that a vaccine is our only hope for life returning to normal, it seems most people are pinning their hopes on a vaccine. Regardless of where you stand on the vaccine issue (pro vs anti), the reality is that vaccines do pose risk. While the obvious task is to develop a shot that immunizes against a disease the bigger challenge is to ensure that such a shot doesn’t injure people.

Researchers from Oxford and the pharmaceutical company AstraZeneca released information from their phase 1/2 trial that shows their vaccine may produce immunity without causing “serious harm”.

While the people in the study may not have suffered “serious harm” from the coronavirus vaccine experiments, the side effects they did suffer were substantial and indicative of a vaccine that could cause massive injury and death on a larger scale.

Covid-19 Vaccines With ‘Minor Side Effects’ Could Still Be Pretty Bad

In one “advanced, phase III trial,” people were given acetaminophen every 6 hours for 24 hours after receiving the vaccine to help curb side effects.

Within a group of people that did not receive acetaminophen, one-third of people reported moderate or severe chills, headache, fatigue, feverishness, or general malaise. Around 25% of people experienced moderate or severe muscle aches. Nearly 10% of people had a fever higher than 100 degrees.

In another trial, by the time both doses of the vaccine were administered, every person had signs of headaches, chills or fatigue, with 80% of people reporting symptoms bad enough to keep them from normal everyday activities.

The people who participate in these vaccine trials have to be healthy adults between the ages of 18-55, and not have allergies made worse by acetaminophen. It is likely that someone with unknown and/or underlying health problems could have a much more adverse reaction to a coronavirus vaccine.
