Is IT Possible that last years flu vaccine was adulterated with the Rna?
arclein, Terra Forming Terra - 21 hours ago
Is it possible that the ccp tested their RNA vaccine experiment on the residents of Wuhan, then announced COV19 as flu season then hit with a vengence? They are possibly now promoting a vaccine containing that same agency in order to infect the globe to produce a COV 19 epidemic? The vaccine induces the pandemic and not the otherway around, If the rna based vaccine was put out as part of the flu vaccine promotion we would have had the next cold virus wave behave just like covid 19 has behaved to produce a cytominbe storm. That is frightening. An obvious trick to do in order...

The UK's Green Electricity Grid Depends on Better Weather Forecasts
Hannah Bloomfield, The National Interest - 21 hours ago
*Hannah Bloomfield* *Energy, Europe* Cold snaps with very light winds tend to cause the most stress to the UK’s national grid. Boxing Day 2020 was so blustery that more than half of the UK’s daily electricity was met by wind power for the first time. Just over a week later, the wind died as a cold snap kicked off 2021 with sub-zero temperatures and scattered snow.
