On January 17, the head of Russian consumer rights and well-being watchdog Rospotrebnadzor, Anna Popova, announced that vaccination against Covid-19 was no longer needed, the peak of the Covid-19 wave had passed in Russia, and that increases in coronavirus cases were now seasonal.  

Russia will not start a new mass-vaccination campaign, Popova said in an interview with Rossiya 24, elaborating that there had been “an upsurge in the autumn, but it has already gone.”  

The health official stressed that coronavirus has now given way to influenza and other respiratory viruses, the incidence of which has risen.  

However, Popova added that people should still remain vigilant, given the rising number of Covid hospital admissions in Russia, pointing out that hospitalizations of patients with Covid had increased by 40 percent. She interpreted the figure as meaning that people did not seek medical help and preferred self-treatment at home. When such patients eventually visit the doctor seeking assistance, it is sometimes “too late to receive outpatient treatment,” and they are taken to hospitals, she said. 

In November 2023, Popova reported a new wave of Covid-19 cases in the country. The Gamaleya National Center for Epidemiology and Microbiology, creator of the Sputnik V vaccine, stated that the shot had lost its effectiveness and a new version of the Covid shot was being prepared for release by March 2024 to target new variants of the virus. In December, the Ministry of Health registered the updated one-shot Sputnik Light vaccine.  

At the recent globalist World Economic Forum (WEF) annual summit in Davos, Switzerland, world elites discussed the “Disease X” pandemic, a hypothetical virus claimed to be 20 times deadlier than SARS-Cov-2. Such a virus is not known to currently exist, but pandemic alarmists are  considering a plan of action should such a virus emerge.  

World Health Organization (WHO) head Dr. Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus said that it is “a matter of when, not if” for a new unknown disease to emerge. 

“Disease X is a placeholder for unknown diseases,” Tedros explained. “I just wanted to clarify that because there has already been a lot of attention.”  

“Although COVID came immediately, we were preparing for COVID-like diseases. You may even call COVID the first ‘Disease X.’”  

“And it may happen again.”  

“Of course, there are some people who say this will create panic,” he continued. “No! It’s better to anticipate something that may happen because it has happened in our history many times and prepare for it.”  

“We shouldn’t face things unprepared; we can prepare for some unknown things as well,” Tedros said.  

The description of the event on the WEF website states that “Disease X” could lead to “20 times more fatalities than the coronavirus pandemic.”  

Based on a Sky News report from August 2023, U.K. scientists are already developing vaccines for a potential future pandemic due to an unknown “Disease X” in a secret government laboratory. If the mysterious “Disease X” breaks out, the plan is to develop a “vaccine” within 100 days, as per the head of the U.K. Health Security Agency. 

A a document obtained by The Epoch Times on January 17 indicated that the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) never sent an urgent health alert it had drafted in May 2021 regarding a potentially fatal side-effect related to the experimental mRNA Covid-19 shots it was championing, and continued to push the shots on an unsuspecting public.  

In an inter-agency email titled “Draft alert on myocarditis and mRNA vaccines” obtained by the news outlet, CDC official Dr. Demetre Daskalakis informed two high-ranking colleagues that he had attached “the most recent draft of an alert as discussed.”  

The agency distributed what it describes as “vital health information” to doctors and public health officials at federal, state, and local levels through a system called the Health Alert Network. The warning was reportedly prepared for release via this network; Daskalakis’ email was dated May 21, 2021, but the warning was never published.  

While the exact text of the warning has not been made public, the CDC had been for months monitoring cases of myocarditis, a potentially lethal heart condition, in individuals injected with Pfizer’s and Moderna’s mRNA-based experimental Covid-19 shots, witnessing what it internally acknowledged was a disturbing spike in cases, even as it continued to urge all Americans to get these experimental shots. 

Two days before the email was sent, the CDC told state officials it was “closely monitoring” post-vaccination cases of myocarditis and pericarditis, a similar condition, and acknowledged that such cases “can be serious.” Nonetheless, the public was not notified until weeks later — and the CDC continued to push the jabs onto all Americans, even after the risk was made public. 

Rather than publish the draft alert, the CDC later chose to inform healthcare providers about the danger in a document headed “clinical considerations” that lacked the forceful language or massive dissemination a Health Alert Network bulletin would have received. While it admitted the increased risk of myocarditis, it placed equivalent emphasis on the need to “vaccinate” everyone over age 11. 

Last year, it was revealed that both the CDC and the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) had been made aware of a myocarditis “safety signal” ignited by an unusually large number of adverse event reports as far back as February 2021 — just two months after the mRNA-based experimental shots obtained regulatory approval.  

Despite international news reports that the experimental Pfizer and Moderna shots were linked to an elevated risk of myocarditis, the U.S. regulatory agencies failed to inform the public about the risk until after the jabs had been approved for patients between 12 and 15 years old — one of the age groups most vulnerable to their deadly side-effects. 

On January 13, the Republican Committee of Arizona’s biggest county passed a “Ban the Jab” resolution urging the state to ban the sale of the experimental Covid shots and declaring the injections to be “biological weapons.” 

The Maricopa County Republican Committee (MCRC) voted in favor of the resolution by a large majority, with 1,306 votes in favor and 188 against, as Dan Shultz with Precinct Strategy confirmed on the Steve Gruber Show.  

Shultz, an attorney and former U.S. Army human intelligence officer, told Gruber that the mRNA-based Covid shots “are not vaccines” but deadly “bioterrorism” weapons that need to be halted. Schultz submitted the resolution to both the MCRC and to the Arizona GOP state committee, which will put it up for a vote on January 27. 

So far, 10 Republican county parties in Florida have passed the Ban the Jab resolution, as has the Idaho Republican Party and the Clackamas County GOP in Oregon, according to Dr. Joseph Sansone, the psychotherapist who wrote the original resolution.
