USA - When I was pro-vax I used to hear anti-vaxxer parents say things like “my second kid is unvaccinated and never ever gets sick!” And I’d roll my eyes and be like “what does that have to do with anything? Getting a cold or flu has nothing to do with whether or not you got your polio shot.” WRONG.
UK - Electricity, gas and water firms, the Sellafield nuclear power plant, Whitehall departments and NHS hospitals have all been warned to prepare for a state- sponsored assault ordered by the Kremlin after the nerve agent attack in Salisbury.

Seehofer was sworn-in on Wednesday, following protracted negotiations to form a new German government, and made the remarks in an interview with Bild on Friday.

USA - Communists have always operated through "popular front" movements, which pretend to be grassroots movements but are actually organized and funded by the Masonic Jewish (Communist) central bankers.

UK - A weaponised smallpox virus could have a devastating effect on the world's major cities, infecting thousands because of the growing numbers of people with suppressed immunity, researchers have warned. Smallpox, which was eradicated globally in 1980, is classed by the United States government as a category A bioterrorism agent because of its potential to spread rapidly, infect swathes of the population and incite widespread fear and panic. The World Health Organization has stockpiled around 30 million doses of first, second and third generation vaccines.
USA - I really hope you understand this.
It is not a fantasy.
It isn’t science fiction.
It isn’t satire.

USA - World leaders have been warned that a Donald Trump-inspired trade war could trash the global economic recovery with protectionist policies tearing up global supply chains and killing off the green shoots of productivity growth.

USA - Scientists from Northwestern University published a study in the journal Neuropsychologia attempting to establish a link between religious fundamentalism and brain impairment. The findings suggest that religious fundamentalists have less cognitive flexibility, in addition, the study states that damage to particular areas of the prefrontal cortex indirectly promotes religious fundamentalism.
