CDC Investigating Link Between Pfizer's "Bivalent" Covid Vaccine and Strokes in People 65 and Older

Fauci was on Cavuto Friday claiming this is a "weak signal" only -- signal being a term of art meaning "statistical correlation" -- which has not been detected in other counties or in the patient self-reporting system, VAERS.

David Strom noted that while the CDC wants to show they're being "transparent," in fact this "signal" first appeared in November, and they're only warning about it now. I suppose that can be explained by the normal sort of vetting you'd want to put a "signal" through to check if it's real or just data-babble, but a lot of people are going to imagine the CDC is hiding the ball for their cronies at Pfizer again.

Note that while the CDC hasn't proven that the Bivalent vaccine causes these strokes, they still have detected a "signal" that maybe it does, and they're investigating it.

So: How does the Washington Post report this?

That's right: as a complete scientific proof that the Bivalent jab is safe.

Meanwhile, the National Institute of Health is spending money on, you guessed it, LGBT issues and equity instead of cures for diseases. And Mitch McConnell's Atrocious Eighteen are responsible for this.

As Congress continues to expand its budget, the National Institutes of Health is increasingly spending its time on the issues of equity, LGBT and "systemic racism," devoting millions of taxpayer dollars to causes other than its primary mission to find medical cures and treatments.

...

The latest $1.7 trillion omnibus law passed by Congress last month increased NIH's 2023 budget by about $2.5 billion, or 5.6%, totaling $47.5 billion. NIH's budget 10 years ago was less than $30 billion.

This kind of focus comes in part because the National Institute on Minority Health and Health Disparities was upgraded from a center to an institute during the Obama administration. Racial disparities do exist in certain health conditions, but the research grants awarded by NIH go beyond those standard health conditions.

...

For example, NIH funded a $1.2 million grant to find evidence that racism is to blame for poor sleep in minority communities. The studies are based on the hypothesis that the disparity in sleep health in the Black community is "thought to be explained partially by experiences of interpersonal racial discrimination."
