The NYC mayorâs office has pressured the UN General Assembly into requiring everyone who goes into the UNâs building in NYC to be vaccinated, the Russians are throwing a hissy fit about it and DeBlasio thinks this is pretty lulzy

TIL that some countries and travel companies consider anyone who received a combination of different vaccines to be unvaccinated. Only those who had the manufacturer recommended dosage (including timeframe and waiting periods) fall into their âfully vaccinatedâ category. Iâm not sure if itâs because they are waiting for more data on that scenario. However, it means more people will face restrictions in the future unless the criteria changes:

Makes sense: during pregnancy your immune system is damped down, because otherwise it would expel the foreign DNA growing inside.

A hospital system in Arkansas is making it a bit more difficult for staff to receive a religious exemption from its COVID-19 vaccine mandate. The hospital is now requiring staff to also swear off extremely common medicines, such as Tylenol, Tums, and even Preparation H, to get the exemption.
The move was prompted when Conway Regional Health System noted an unusual uptick in vaccine exemption requests that cited the use of fetal cell lines in the development and testing of the vaccines.
âThis was significantly disproportionate to what weâve seen with the influenza vaccine,â Matt Troup, president and CEO of Conway Regional Health System, told Beckerâs Hospital Review in an interview Wednesday.
âThus,â Troup went on, âwe provided a religious attestation form for those individuals requesting a religious exemption,â he said. The form includes a list of 30 commonly used medicines that âfall into the same category as the COVID-19 vaccine in their use of fetal cell lines,â Conway Regional said.
The list includes Tylenol, Pepto Bismol, aspirin, Tums, Lipitor, Senokot, Motrin, ibuprofen, Maalox, Ex-Lax, HIV-1, Benadryl, Sudafed, albuterol, Preparation H, MMR vaccine, Claritin, Zoloft, Prilosec OTC, and azithromycin.

I get the point, and obviously the fetal cell angle isnât really the true reason behind most of the requests, but whatâs the background behind the claim that aspirin was developed using fetal stem cells? Bayer has been selling acetylsalicylic acid under that name since 1899.

Tums (calcium carbonate) is also older than the use of fetal cell lines.
Perhaps related to this article?

What difference does it even make? The religious exemption is already a lie, theyâd swear off whole milk if it meant sticking it to the vaxman.

I dunno, I think that article isnât making a very strong argument on consistency when it comes to drugs like aspirin that received regulatory approval prior to ever being tested on the stem cell lines. The examples of stem cell testing it gives for aspirin are academic studies that were done well after the drug was approved and made widely available to the public, so if someone who wasnât involved in any way with the drugâs development comes along decades later and does experiments that someone finds unethical (take an extreme case, like intentionally poisoning kittens with it) that doesnât make the drug itself less ethical than before, even if youâre strongly against poisoning kittens.

I just thought it could have been where they sourced (some of) their list. I donât know if they agreed with the logic or not.
