Today's Must-Reads - 23 November 2022 & Fauci's retirement speech warns the Unvaccinated and pushes Testing

A selection of the latest news, studies, reports and articles

I spend a lot of time each day gathering together new information and interesting articles. I then pick one or two of the most interesting topics and write about them. However, that leaves a lot of missed out information that I’m not sharing.

Below is a summary of all the latest articles and information that I’ve found. Today, this is a slimmed down version for all subscribers but will be for paid subscribers only a lot of the time in the future.

Please consider taking out a paid subscription because it enables me to spend longer reporting on the news that isn’t, but should be reported.

But first a few snippets from Fauci’s retirement speech. Looks like the unvaccinated are heading for a winter of death again like last year - oh wait.

Oh and make sure you get tested before your Thanksgiving dinner…just so you have something interesting to talk about around the table.

“Did you test yourself!?”

“Of course, do I look like Satan in disguise?”

“Were you positive?”

“No but I did have Covid for the fifth time last week. I’m just so glad I’m boosted, otherwise who knows what might have happened”

“I know, I’m on number six if your count my Paxlovid rebound!”

“Let’s thank the Lord for creating big pharma and then eat”

“Dear Lord, thank you for your vaccines and for providing me with two arms so that I can have a Covid booster in one and a flu jab in the other - Amen”

Fauci: "The real danger is in the people who have not been vaccinated. If we're going to see a problem this winter, it's going to be among those people."

Dr. Fauci says you should get a covid test before you have Thanksgiving dinner with your family. I don’t think I’ve ever hated anyone more in American politics than Fauci. Not even a close second, honestly.
