Heart scarring was detected more than one year after COVID-19 vaccination in some people who suffered myocarditis following receipt of a shot, researchers reported in new studies. The Epoch Times has more.
A third of 60 patients with follow-up cardiac imaging done more than 12 months after their myocarditis diagnosis had persistent late gadolinium enhancement (LGE), which is, in the majority of cases, reflective of heart scarring, Australian researchers reported in a preprint of a new study, published on March 22nd. Myocarditis is a form of heart inflammation.
The median time from receipt of a vaccine to follow-up imaging was 548 days, with the longest interval being 603 days.
“We found that the incidence of persistent myocardial fibrosis is high, seen in almost a third of patients at over 12 months post diagnosis, which could have implications for the management and prognosis of this predominantly young cohort,” the researchers wrote.
“The long-term clinical implications of LGE in this condition are as yet unknown, but LGE has been demonstrated to confer worse prognosis in non-COVID-19 vaccine-associated myocarditis, especially if it persists beyond six months,” they added later, pointing to several previous papers. …
In the other recent paper, researchers in Canada reported finding about half of patients referred for imaging due to possible post-vaccination myocarditis had persistent LGE in follow-up imaging.
Overall, 60 patients were included in the retrospective study. Of those, seven reported persistent symptoms.
In a subset of 21 patients for whom follow-up MRIs were available, 10 had persistent LGE, the researchers said. On the other hand, function of the left ventricle, which pumps blood, had normalised in all patients. …
The new papers add to earlier studies, which found that LGE persists for months in some people following a COVID-19 shot.
Researchers in Washington state reported in 2022 that LGE persisted in children for up to eight months after vaccination. Later that year, the U.S. Centres for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) said that more than half of 151 patients with follow-up imaging had residual LGE, which was described as “suggestive of myocardial scarring”.
The CDC has longer-term data on the patients, the agency confirmed to the Epoch Times in January, but has not yet published another paper describing those data. The CDC, which failed to warn the public about the risk of post-vaccination myocarditis, declined to comment on the new Australian and Canadian papers.
Hong Kong researchers in 2023 reported finding that about half of 40 patients with follow-up MRIs months after vaccination had LGE.
Symptoms have also persisted in some patients with post-vaccination myocarditis. The CDC, describing preliminary updated results from its longer-term study, said in early 2023 that there were patients still suffering from symptoms more than one year after a shot. Researchers in Australia in late 2023 said that symptoms persisted at least six months after a shot in a majority of patients they followed.

What massacre that will be remembered in infamy and shame happened in Gaza yesterday but is absent in this news roundup, I wonder?
I’m sure George Galloway will draw your attention to it. Congratulations, George.

Let’s give it the infamous name it’ll be known by – the Flour Massacre.

Crikey, it’s Galloway. Mental. ( 2mins )
https://twitter.com/blazey2004/status/1763398420650221638
Note that the majority didn’t vote at all, so he acquired his majority from the minority – a bit like most local government elections in the UK. Goes to show what you can end up with if you don’t vote.
It is what happens when newer parties are suppressed. The results at future general elections might bring forth much worse people than Galloway and in numbers.
Well this guy was 100% prescient, I mean, didn’t see this coming did we..? <sarc>
”There was no massacre of Palestinians in Gaza today.
You’ll be hearing that there was. It’s propaganda. Palestinians trampled each other as they fought for the aid that the IDF sent in knowing that Hamas was going to steal it like they have stolen all aid.
Hundreds of Palestinians were trampled to death and many others injured.
In parallel, a Palestinian mob tried to attack IDF forces who proceeded to shoot warning shots in the air and when the mob didn’t stop, the IDF fired at their legs.
As I said, no massacre in Gaza. When the propaganda starts populating your feeds, just know that it is 100% false.
You’ll be hearing about this fabricated massacre across all mainstream media in 3…2…
Here is footage of the Palestinian mob trying to steal aid and trampling each other.
Don’t believe the lies that are being fed to the media directly from Hamas.”

Excellent work, fear that you are wasting your time with the jew haters mind.
Massacre reported by Hamas. Well, that is an area of expertise for them, sure.
Oh I’m not trying to convince anyone or change minds, least of all their’s. I am, however, happy to always call out disgraceful human beings that have a disgusting attitude though. Which is what anybody supporting terrorism and sympathising with rapists is, in my book, and I in no way think that’s a radical viewpoint. And as you’ve probably gleaned, I’m also not here for the ‘likes’.

“The most terrifying thing about Putin is not that he’s delusional, but that he might be right”
If you want an alternative view, the Global times comment is here;
https://www.globaltimes.cn/page/202402/1307941.shtml
I am no advocate for the Global Times but I always think it does give a feel for the the view of world affairs that is being put out to a large section of the world’s population.
The most terrifying thing about Putin is not that he’s delusional, but that he might be right
Of course he’s right.
What will Europe do when, by incorporating Ukraine, Moldova into the Russian ‘Union State’ which already includes Belarus, Putin encircles the Baltic States?
You’re already looking at it………
As a consequence, in due course, in response to such a Russian ‘Union State’ with Baltic States encircled and subverted, Germany, under a government of an entirely different complexion (and Poland), may very well decide to acquire nuclear weapons.
To every action, there is a reaction……
Quite so. We talk with leaders of many states we do not approve off. We should have been talking to Putin years ago, rather than thinking in our ignorance all we were engaging in was Cold War II.
Similarly Assad. The last secular state in the Middle East. The “Civil” war no such thing, rather his constant war with terrorists. Indeed, his father’s notorious massacre in Homs involved wiping out a Muslim Brotherhood enclave there. As anyone who has investigated the MB, they are the fons origo of Islamic terrorism. Wiping them out in your country – well,hell, shit happens when you are terrorists.
The West has been funding and supporting terrorists in Syria. Before 2011, its GDP was growing faster than our, and they had a growing middle class. Assad very popular. How do I know? My stepdaughter lived in Damascus with Syrian families for six months before the problems. It would have been in OUR best interest to side with Assad, not go for him. Not to mention all those people, such as the shitshow Obama, who were going to deal with him… all gone. Assad ain’t.
And that “gassing” accusation. Do some research. It’s all out there. Not to mention that the only chlorine factory IN Syria was in the hands of the revels.
In my view, the real problem with Putin began with Kosovo and the humiliation of the Russians, particularly those lunatics who took control of Pristina airport, pointless because it would have been impossible to transfer a Russian division and even a battalion by air to Pristina since Yugoslavia was surrounded from all sides by NATO countries; total air supremacy of NATO aviation.
The Clinton/Blair Kosovo idiocy (a deal could and should have resulted from Rambouillet) set a precedent, which, as I and many others pointed out at the time, would come back and bite the West in the backside, as it has now on three separate occasions.
With regard to Assad, it is difficult, I think, to argue that he has governed Syria in the best interests of all the Syrian people. Of course he has his supporters.
Regarding chemical weapons, here’s the research:
‘3……..On the basis of all the information obtained and its analysis, the (Investigation and Identification Team) IIT concludes that there are reasonable grounds to believe that, between 19:10 and 19:40 (UTC+3) on 7 April 2018, during a major military offensive aimed at regaining control of the city of Douma, at least one Mi-8/17 helicopter of the Syrian Arab Air Force, departing from Dumayr airbase and operating under the control of the Tiger Forces, dropped two yellow cylinders which hit two residential buildings in a central area of the city.
4. At Location 2,1 the cylinder hit the rooftop floor of a three-storey residential building without fully penetrating it, ruptured, and rapidly released toxic gas—chlorine—in very high concentrations, which rapidly dispersed within the building, killing 43 named individuals and affecting dozens more.
5. At Location 4,1 the cylinder hit the roof of a three-storey residential building (at the time uninhabited), and broke into the apartment below. The cylinder ruptured only partially, and started to slowly release chlorine, mildly affecting those who first arrived at the scene.
6. The IIT reached its conclusions on the basis of the degree of certainty of “reasonable grounds”, which is the standard of proof consistently adopted by international fact-finding bodies and commissions of inquiry…..’

‘Videos of barrel bomb remnants found after the attacks on Keferzita on April 11 and 18 and the attack on Telmans on April 21 show yellow cylinders or canisters together with remnants of barrel bombs. The canisters contain markings with the code “CL2” – the symbol for chlorine gas – and “NORINCO,” indicating that the cylinders were manufactured in China by the state-owned company NORINCO. Yellow is the standard industrial gas color code for chlorine.’

“international fact-finding bodies and commissions of inquiry…..’”
Sadly, all international bodies are now beyond hope. The UN was set up with the best of intentions; it is now a disaster, especially on Human Rights. Similarly the WHO, which did excellent work in the past, but is now a danger to us all. Their handling of Covid was as bad as can be. Maybe that China and the philanthropath Gates are their main drivers has something to do with that.
All too true.
Israel or Palestine? Let’s see how many different things we can conflate, and see how many people are dumb enough to commit their heart and soul to one teams propaganda. The mindf*ck of Covid and Russia-Ukraine – and heaven knows what else before all that – has left a few defiant stragglers, but Israel vs Palestine has bought the minds of the few who remained. What a disappointing lot we are.
About 72% of the votes in Rochdale were postal votes. Draw your own conclusions.
Speculation, but as a postal voter myself (nowhere near Rochdale) I’m familiar with it. Established parties have long encouraged known supporters to opt for it, as it usually results in them actually voting (hopefully for them). My hunch re all the recent by-elections is that the real majority don’t approve of the system at all at present, and don’t give a s**t.
Isn’t it still the case that postal votes are for those who, for health reasons etc, cannot physically get to a polling station?
No
They are available on demand. Another Blair change for the worse whiuch the Tories have not wanted to change.
And they are encouraged by organised groups, of any of the major ones with reasonable canvassing records to the effect that they are likely to vote for them. Incidentally, that would be a reason why the postal turnouts are proportionally higher than on the day turnouts at the polling station in elections with low turnouts, like the recent by-elections. When I vote on the PV, I usually do it around 10 days early, depending on the delivery by the local Council that manages it. When you are on it, you are not allowed to vote at polling stations. They are reliant on the Royal Mail to some extent as well. I guess if they on strike you can deliver by hand to the Council, but that would probably drive down the turnout if it happens.
“Downing Street has told police to list offenders, such as ‘cat killer’ murderer Scarlet Blake, as male unless they have legally changed gender, reports the Telegraph”
I thought the reason for the costly charade of Police and Crime Commissioners was to introduce a degree of public accountability into policing. And since when did “Number 10” have the power to issue decrees like the French President?

The Arab League’s statement at the ICJ case regarding the Israel/Palestine occupation. Blistering.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6LACse017-A
Can’t be bothered to watch it, but one question – does it mention Hamas breach of the Geneva Convention, and the consequences of them doing so? The Arab League – well, read on…
“To quote the words of the then Secretary-General of the Arab League, Azzam Pasha, describing the war aims of the five Arab States whose armies invaded Israel the day after its birth on May 14, 1948: ‘This will be a war of extermination and a momentous massacre which will be spoken of like the Mongolian massacres and the Crusades.’ In the process of trying to achieve this terrible objective, they created the Palestinian refugee problem by telling the Arab population within Israel to leave their homes temporarily so as not to get in the way of the invaders.”

Until Israel wipes out Hamas and its supporters – i.e. those who voted them into power, then Israel cannot be safe. As it was for Jews when we wiped out the Nazis. Hamas are Islam’s Nazis; indeed, the Grand Mufti of Jerusalem, during WWII, met with Hitler to plan a Middle East Holocaust. Which is just what Hamas wants.
Let’s get real eh?
Extraordinary speech. Sadly, the US will ignore every word of it.
“News presenter Clive Myrie has said he dislikes the term ‘impartial’ and does not believe the BBC must provide balance on every topic, according to the Telegraph.”
Well they don’t anyway, so what’s Myrie on about?
Providing balance and being impartial is impossible. The only solution is to privatise/scrap the BBC and stop pretending it can be impartial.
“Founder of the Free Speech Union, Toby Young said: “Sam Melia’s conviction points to the shortcomings of the ‘stirring up’ clauses in the Public Order Act.
“Why is he guilty of ‘stirring up’ racial or religious hatred, but not George Galloway, some of whose comments about Israel and Zionism have been equally incendiary? Yet Galloway is now the MP for Rochdale, while Melia has gone to prison for two years.
“Either the law is applied consistently, without fear or favour, or it’s not fit for purpose.
