										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p class="Component-root-0-2-520 p Component-p-0-2-509">BRASILIA, Brazil (AP) — Brazil’s Federal Police searched former President Jair Bolsonaro’s home and seized his phone Wednesday in what they said was an investigation into alleged falsification of COVID-19 vaccine cards. Several other locations also were searched and a half dozen people faced arrest, police said.</p>
<p class="Component-root-0-2-520 p Component-p-0-2-509">The former president confirmed the search of his residence while speaking with reporters, as did his wife, Michelle, on her Instagram account.</p>
<p class="Component-root-0-2-520 p Component-p-0-2-509">A police official, who spoke on condition of anonymity because the person wasn’t authorized to speak publicly, said Bolsonaro would be questioned at Federal Police headquarters and confirmed that one of his closest allies, Mauro Cid, was arrested.</p>
<p class="Component-root-0-2-520 p Component-p-0-2-509">Asked about the search of Bolsonaro’s home, the Federal Police’s press office provided a statement saying officers were carrying out 16 searches and six arrests in Rio de Janeiro related to the introduction of fraudulent data related to the COVID-19 vaccine into the nation’s health system. The statement didn’t name Bolsonaro or Cid.</p>

<p><span style="font-family: arial, sans-serif;">Greetings from Tyler,</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, sans-serif;"> It was almost the perfect legal defense.<span class="yiv2975919724gmail-Apple-converted-space">  </span>The CDC has made a big deal of coming out, in the person of Ms. Walenski, and said they didn’t perform up to standards and there’s a shake-up in progress.<span class="yiv2975919724gmail-Apple-converted-space">  </span>That ought to do it.<span class="yiv2975919724gmail-Apple-converted-space">  </span>So, of the lawsuits filed and pending, the CDC has just inoculated themselves.<span class="yiv2975919724gmail-Apple-converted-space">  </span>Mistakes were made, but every effort is being made to piece together some kindergarten talk.<span class="yiv2975919724gmail-Apple-converted-space">  </span>Here and there we find that masks are still being required of school children, and military pilots are banned from training if they refused the “vaccine.”<span class="yiv2975919724gmail-Apple-converted-space">  </span>Who ever heard of a vaccine that would see the recipient come down, maybe twice, with the malady in question?<span class="yiv2975919724gmail-Apple-converted-space">  </span>There are high profile people, like the pretender and his wife who’ve been double vaccinated, double boosted and have had to isolate.<span class="yiv2975919724gmail-Apple-converted-space">  </span>It’s not nearly as bad as it might have been!<span class="yiv2975919724gmail-Apple-converted-space">  </span>Beam me up.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, sans-serif;"> How’s the Ukrainian war going?<span class="yiv2975919724gmail-Apple-converted-space">  </span>Yes it’s still going, and there’s every conceivable prediction as to the conclusion.<span class="yiv2975919724gmail-Apple-converted-space">  </span>Right now concerns are focused on a nuclear power plant that the Russians reportedly occupied last February, and have kept running by forcing Ukrainian workers to keep working.<span class="yiv2975919724gmail-Apple-converted-space">  </span>Word is that Russia might reroute the power produced to it’s own grid.<span class="yiv2975919724gmail-Apple-converted-space">  </span>Does that mean that the Russians didn’t go after solar panels and wind turbines?<span class="yiv2975919724gmail-Apple-converted-space">  </span>Wonder why not.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, sans-serif;"> TV clips are showing Europe’s rivers dried up.<span class="yiv2975919724gmail-Apple-converted-space">  </span>Did this happen overnight?<span class="yiv2975919724gmail-Apple-converted-space">  </span>How did these rivers go from transportation hubs to completely dry?<span class="yiv2975919724gmail-Apple-converted-space">  </span>You can bet we’ll be told it’s man-made climate change.<span class="yiv2975919724gmail-Apple-converted-space">  </span>Maybe you didn’t buy an electric car soon enough?<span class="yiv2975919724gmail-Apple-converted-space">  </span>Officials have already decided that rain is not a solution to the problem.<span class="yiv2975919724gmail-Apple-converted-space">  </span>No, it’s undoubtedly a climate crisis.<span class="yiv2975919724gmail-Apple-converted-space">  </span>And it’s all your fault!</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, sans-serif;"> You might have thought we were through with Covid-19.<span class="yiv2975919724gmail-Apple-converted-space">  </span>Not so fast!<span class="yiv2975919724gmail-Apple-converted-space">  </span>Even though the CDC made a huge deal this week about how they’d mishandled the recommendations and were undergoing a huge shake-up, Covid muscles are still being flexed.<span class="yiv2975919724gmail-Apple-converted-space">  </span>So, no matter how cockamamie the rules may have been, they’re still in effect out there and damaging lives.<span class="yiv2975919724gmail-Apple-converted-space">  </span>Those questioning the orthodoxy are still being banned from social networks (hello facebook and Instagram).<span class="yiv2975919724gmail-Apple-converted-space">  </span>Just today RFK Jr.’s organization got banned for something deemed misinformation. <span class="yiv2975919724gmail-Apple-converted-space"> </span></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, sans-serif;"> When the British tried this back in the 1700’s, it didn’t go over so well.<span class="yiv2975919724gmail-Apple-converted-space">  </span>But you’d think the wars were never fought and freedom never established.<span class="yiv2975919724gmail-Apple-converted-space">  </span>The “elite” are using technology to fling people into utter darkness if they depart from the established narrative.<span class="yiv2975919724gmail-Apple-converted-space">  </span>Regardless of how many “followers,” you can’t say something that disputes the party line without getting in trouble, meaning banned from distribution.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, sans-serif;"> It seems every time you turn on the news, you see a drone shot of Mar-a-Lago with police lights reflecting off the walls.<span class="yiv2975919724gmail-Apple-converted-space">  </span>Whatever happened to the 4<sup>th</sup> Amendment?<span class="yiv2975919724gmail-Apple-converted-space">  </span>We’ll probably never see the underlying pretense for this reckless action on the part of national “law enforcement.”<span class="yiv2975919724gmail-Apple-converted-space">  </span>There’s all kinds of speculation as to what they may have been after.<span class="yiv2975919724gmail-Apple-converted-space">  </span>All the trial balloons have gone down in flames.<span class="yiv2975919724gmail-Apple-converted-space">  </span>Nuclear secrets, anybody? <span class="yiv2975919724gmail-Apple-converted-space">  </span>Some think that Trump had the goods on agency misbehavior and planned to embarrass the haughty agency in due time.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, sans-serif;"> But the agents had been in Mar-a-Lago only a matter of weeks before, and everything seemed to be proceeding fine.<span class="yiv2975919724gmail-Apple-converted-space">  </span>There’s a letter from the National Archives thanking Trump for his cooperation.<span class="yiv2975919724gmail-Apple-converted-space">    </span>Agents could look EVERYWHERE and take anything.<span class="yiv2975919724gmail-Apple-converted-space">  </span>Even Melania’s wardrobe was fair game.<span class="yiv2975919724gmail-Apple-converted-space">  </span>Some legal experts expect that Trump will be charged with a crime, and that ought to show us wretched right-wingers how things work.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, sans-serif;"> Not that the U. S. doesn’t deserve whatever comes.<span class="yiv2975919724gmail-Apple-converted-space">  </span>We were endowed with certain faculties that were supposed to help us discern.<span class="yiv2975919724gmail-Apple-converted-space">  </span>But you can’t depend on your own discernment any more. We’ll be told what to think, what shots to get, and there better be no backtalk, or else.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, sans-serif;"> It’s starting to look downright totalitarian.<span class="yiv2975919724gmail-Apple-converted-space">  </span>Some have called the raid, The Day America Changed.<span class="yiv2975919724gmail-Apple-converted-space">  </span>We hope not.<span class="yiv2975919724gmail-Apple-converted-space">  </span>Some of us are hoping God will give America another chance.<span class="yiv2975919724gmail-Apple-converted-space">  </span>We’ve definitely been blowing it, government wise, culture wise etc.<span class="yiv2975919724gmail-Apple-converted-space">  </span>Sooner or later it will all work out.<span class="yiv2975919724gmail-Apple-converted-space">  </span>It’s our responsibility to WATCH and warn.<span class="yiv2975919724gmail-Apple-converted-space"> </span></span></p>

<hr />
<p>Only just over half of Poles (56%) say they would take a vaccine for COVID-19 if one were available, a global survey by Ipsos on behalf of the World Economic Forum has found.</p>
<p>That puts Poland second from bottom among the 27 countries included in the study, alongside Hungary (56%). Only Russia (54%) came below them.</p>
<p>Globally, 74% of adults surveyed said they would take the vaccine. The countries with the highest proportion of positive responses are China (97%), Brazil (88%) and Australia (88%).</p>
<p><img decoding="async" src="https://notesfrompoland.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/09/wef1_1.jpg" /></p>
<p>In a separate survey conducted in Poland by SW Research for <em>Rzeczpospolita</em> in July, just under half of Poles (47%) said that they would use a vaccine if one became available.</p>
<p>In the latest Ipsos study, among Poles who said they did not intend to take the vaccine, the most common reason – chosen by 65% of them – was that they were worried about side effects.</p>
<p>Almost half (44%) said they did not think the treatment would be effective, while 18% said they were opposed to vaccines in general.</p>
<p><img decoding="async" src="https://notesfrompoland.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/09/wef3.jpg" /></p>
<p>Poland, like many countries, has seen a growth in <a href="https://notesfrompoland.com/2019/11/01/doctor-who-criticised-vaccines-banned-from-practising-medicine-for-a-year/">anti-vaccine sentiment</a> in recent years. The number of people refusing compulsory vaccinations grew thirteenfold in 2008-18, reaching 40,151 in the latter year, and the proportion of children being vaccinated against measles has fallen below the 95% threshold required for herd immunity.</p>
<p>Last year, Poland recorded 1,423 measles cases – the fourth highest number among EU member states and more than in the previous 18 years combined. Many cases were found among immigrants from neighbouring Ukraine, leading the government to consider an entry ban on unvaccinated foreigners.</p>

<p>Antivax groups have been <a href="https://notesfrompoland.com/2020/05/28/phone-mast-set-on-fire-in-poland-following-rollout-of-first-5g-network/">present</a> at <a href="https://notesfrompoland.com/2020/05/24/warsaw-hit-by-third-weekend-of-protests-and-clashes-with-police/">anti-lockdown protests</a> in Poland during the coronavirus pandemic. A “Stop the Plandemic” demonstration in the city of Poznań on Saturday was led by Justyna Socha, who in 2018 fronted a successful effort to gather the 100,000 public signatures necessary to submit a legislative proposal to parliament that would ban compulsory vaccinations.</p>
<p>Socha is a parliamentary assistant to MP Grzegorz Braun, one of the leaders of the far-right Confederation (Konfederacja). Braun has been present at anti-lockdown protests, including one in Berlin at the end of August, which Socha also attended.</p>
<p>During Poland’s recent presidential election campaign, incumbent Andrzej Duda <a href="https://notesfrompoland.com/2020/07/07/highlights-of-polands-peculiar-parallel-presidential-debates/">declared</a> that he was “not a supporter of any kind of obligatory vaccination”. Following criticism, he clarified that he was referring only to a potential coronavirus vaccine, and not to vaccinations in general.</p>

</div>
<p>In response, the health minister at the time, Łukasz Szumowski, said that it was too early to discuss whether a vaccine against COVID-19 should be made mandatory. The vaccine first needed to be developed and tested, he said.</p>
<p>Last month, Szumowski announced that Poland was expecting the first batches of a future vaccine to arrive in December. Medical workers would be first in line to receive it, he said, followed by the uniformed services and the elderly.</p>
<p>According to the new Ipsos survey, Poles are the most sceptical among all the nations included as to whether a vaccine will be ready soon. Only 27% of respondents in Poland agreed that the vaccine will be available to them by the end of this year.</p>
<p>That was the lowest among all countries surveyed, and compared to a global average of 41%. Most optimistic were the Chinese, 87% of whom thought they would have access to a vaccine in 2020, followed by Saudis (75%) and Indians (74%).</p>

However, new cases recently rose to their <a href="https://notesfrompoland.com/2020/08/21/new-daily-record-of-coronavirus-cases-in-poland-as-rise-in-infections-continues/">highest ever level</a> after restrictions were loosened. Since late August, however, daily infection numbers have been falling again.</p>
