Do the COVID-19 vaccines contain aborted fetal cells?
let’s break down the science
Fetal cell lines are cells that grow in a laboratory. They descend from cells taken from abortions in the 1970s and 1980s.
Those individual cells from the 1970s and 1980s have since multiplied into many new cells over the past four or five decades, creating the fetal cell lines I mentioned above. Current fetal cell lines are thousands of generations removed from the original fetal tissue. They do not contain any tissue from a fetus.
Vaccine makers may use these fetal cell lines during the following two phases:
Research and development
Production and manufacturing
When it comes to the Pfizer and Moderna COVID-19 vaccines, fetal cell line HEK 293 was used during the research and development phase. All HEK 293 cells are descended from tissue taken from a 1973 abortion that took place in the Netherlands. Using fetal cell lines to test the effectiveness and safety of medications is common practice, because they provide a consistent and well-documented standard.
For the Johnson & Johnson vaccine, fetal cell lines were used in the production and manufacturing stage. To make the Johnson & Johnson vaccine, scientists infect PER.C6 fetal cell lines to grow the adenovirus vector. (Learn more about how viral vector vaccines work.) All PER.C6 cells used to manufacture the Johnson & Johnson vaccine are descended from tissue taken from a 1985 abortion that took place in the Netherlands. This cell line is used because it is a well-studied industry standard for safe and reliable production of viral vector vaccines.

Coronavirus infections three times lower in double vaccinated people - REACT
In response to: The study’s analyses of PCR test results also suggest that fully vaccinated people may be less likely than unvaccinated people to pass the virus on to others, due to having a smaller viral load on average and therefore likely shedding less virus.
People who were unvaccinated had a three-fold higher prevalence than those who had received both doses of a vaccine, at 1.21% compared to 0.40%. However both of these represent more than a five-fold increase compared to the previous round (0.24%, 0.07%, respectively). Based on these data, the researchers estimate that fully vaccinated people in this testing round had between around 50% to 60% reduced risk of infection, including asymptomatic infection, compared to unvaccinated people.
Kelly Beaver, Managing Director, Public Affairs at Ipsos MORI said: “Today’s results are a stark reminder of the importance of getting vaccinated against COVID-19, with those unvaccinated three times more likely to test positive in this round than those who are fully vaccinated. This is underscored by the indications in this report that fully vaccinated people are less likely to transmit the virus to others, an important development in understanding how we can beat the virus.”

Chiggers
That is how it looks like, when they bite:
If u scratch the diameter may become as big as 2 cm, but usually it is less than 5 mm and itches good enough for a while....
well, they need food, too...

This woman's remedy for depression is NOT for the lazy.
A woman who struggled with depression found a way—actually, more than 300 ways—to improve her mental health by doing something new every day for a year. Jess Mell says she’s now the happiest she’s been in a decade after trying new things for 365 days, including a try at hot yoga and beekeeping.
Jess completed a wide range of ‘firsts’, including bleeding a radiator, using a sewing machine, and joining a gardening group. From her home in Surrey, she was able to visit European cities like Vienna, Budapest, Copenhagen, Dublin, and Krakow—and, back on home soil, she tried speed dating and line dancing.
PRO TIP: She adjusted her goal midway through the year, after finding it difficult to do ‘one thing every day’. She settled on simply doing 365 new things throughout the year. “That way, I could do ten things in one day if I was free.” Joined sometimes by friends, Jess says the best part about the whole experience has been putting herself out of her comfort zone. “I feel like I should constantly be doing something.”
From entertaining ‘firsts’—like watching an ice hockey match to playing with miniature pigs—to educational quests—like learning the DIY tasks of hanging a picture and sewing a button—her list is a unique hodgepodge of items.

My new occupation
Did you know that the majority of accidents happen right at home ?
Most of those happen right in the bathroom.
Safety is of great concern !
Indeed, health is crucial.
Thus, in an effort to make things as safe as
possible for the ladies,
for a small fee (varies with client conditioning)
I am more than happy to apply my skills
to help keep ladies safe.
I've decided to become the area's finest....

What habits can lead to significant increase in lifespan?
The data used for this study was collected between 2011 and 2019. It featured U.S. veterans between the ages of 40 and 99. Over 30,000 participants died during the follow-up.
The study found that men who have adopted all eight habits at the age of 40 would be predicted to live 24 years longer, on average, than men who adopted none of these habits. Women who have adopted all eight habits by age 40 would live 23 years longer on average compared to those who adopted none.
The eight identified habits are:
* being physically active
* not smoking
* managing stress
* maintaining a good diet
* not regularly drinking alcohol excessively
* maintaining good sleep hygiene
* maintaining positive social relationships
* not developing an opioid addiction

Depression & mental illness
I see we have yet another blog about the above....
and truthfully we've heard it all before on previous blogs.
Not that I disagree with any such topics as some are therapeutic for many....
I sympathise with anyone who must live with such conditions
if and when genuine.
But when is anyone ever going to have the balls to blog about the other side of the matter that no-one ever really wants to discuss.
If and when someone ever does, by all means give me a shout.

Man injects himself with Magic Mushrooms...
News of the weird. A type of mushroom called 'Magic Mushroom' contains the psychedelic drug psilocybin which is meant to be eaten. Instead a man with bipolar disorder brewed mushroom tea and injects it into his bloodstream where the mushrooms grew causing his body to go into organ failure.
He's being treated with long-term use of antifunguals and antibiotics.
He researched how he could decrease his opioid use at home and read about the potential for psilocybin, the drug found in psychedelic mushrooms - also known as magic mushrooms - for treating symptoms of depression and anxiety.
