San Juan Basin Public Public Health (SJBPH) department and the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) have published misinformation about COVID-19 vaccines on numerous websites and media platforms in La Plata County. Most striking was the misinformation through acts of omission about the potential adverse events from taking any of the COVID-19 vaccines. I’m talking about the missing VAERS data and personal accounts of blood clotting, Guillain Barre Syndrome, Bells Palsy, spontaneous abortions, premature babies and more. Also of concern is the misinformation about the vaccine…
Blood clots were removed from a Durango man who was hospitalized after cysts on his pancreas had popped, he said that the doctors told him. The man had also previously taken a COVID-19 vaccination, he said. Andrew Pietrack is a baseball coach, a husband to his wife Aruna, and a father of a newborn. In recovery, he was scheduled to be sent home from UNM Hospital on December 7, 2021. Pietrack’s experience started on his way to work one day, when he stopped at Creature…
Audio recording quality for a Durango School District 9-R Board of Education meeting on November 30th dramatically improved over its previous meetings. The improvement came after people were having trouble hearing what the board and its guests were saying in previous videos of the meetings. For one thing, the Nov. 30th meeting was held in a smaller room with less echo effect. The previous meeting room was large enough for guests, but its tall ceilings gave an echo to the speaker’s voices. Coupled with the…

Meetings and minutes of the Durango School District 9-R Board of Education dating back to May of 2021 do not appear to be open to the public. The lack of public accessibility to board business is another social ill that’s caused by the response to COVID-19, but not caused by COVID-19 itself. A cursory glance at their live stream of the regular meetings shows board members and speakers wearing masks and their voices muffled; inaudible. In other words, the masks that the board members and…
A lawsuit filed against Durango School District 9-R Board of Education and its election official seeks to force them to hold a special election following their illegal cancellation of an election for an abandoned Board of Directors seat, the petition said. For the petitioners, the problem arose when Andrea Parmenter, a former board member in District D, allegedly abandoned her residency in District D more than 90 days before the election without notifying the board. Colorado Revised Statute 22-31-129 (3) says “If the vacancy occurs…
Mainstream media has a conflict of interest in their reporting on the mRNA COVID-19 vaccines based on the advertising revenues that they receive from Pfizer. Specifically, a conflict of interest is defined as “a situation in which regard for one duty leads to disregard of another, or might reasonably be expected to do so,” according to the Federal Reporter. A conflict of interest could be actual or potential, but in the case of corporate broadcast media we can at least see a potential conflict. When…
Meanwhile, Centura Health is telling the public that Ivermectin is an experimental unproven medication that may “compromise a patient’s safety or cause harm”: https://www.thedesertreview.com/opinion/columnists/indias-ivermectin-blackout—part-iii-the-lesson-of-kerala/article_ccecb97e-044e-11ec-9112-2b31ae87887a.html
The death of a woman on vacation in Durango from Payson, Arizona occurred following her inoculation with the Janssen (Johnson & Johnson) COVID-19 mRNA vaccine, according to her son. Peggy Mayer, 71 years old, died on July 29, 2021 at Durango Riverside Resort and RV Park, according to her son, Jess Mayer. At the time, Peggy was camped out with her husband George Mayer, said Jess. The Autopsy Report said that she died of a “bilateral pulmonary artery emboli” with the manner of death being…
Mountain biking enthusiast Kyle from the YouTube channel Kyle & April-Ride MTB took the Pfizer BioNTech COVID-19 jibby jab. Now, he has pericarditis that keeps him from riding and living a normal life. Also, his heart rate goes from sixty beats a minute to a hundred just by standing up from the sitting position. This other condition is called POTS (postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome). Standing up makes him almost pass out, he said.
A COVIDCheck COVID-19 rapid test and a COVID-19 PCR test were administered to my friend on the same visit. Alarmingly, one test came pack positive, and the other came back negative. At the same time, the test recipient did not have any symptoms of COVID-19 at the time of the inspection, they told me.
United Way of Southwest Colorado President and CEO Lynn Urban denied my access to the San Juan Brewfest at Buckley Park for failing to provide proof that I engaged in a medical procedure related to the COVID-19 virus. At 1328 hours on 8/29/2021 I was denied access and entry into Buckley Park, a city of Durango-leased public park that’s owned by Durango School District 9-R. I video recorded the discrimination. Lynn Urban, the President and CEO of United Way of Southwest Colorado, denied me entry…
Ture Nycum, the City of Durango’s new Parks and Recreation Director, gave us an update about the status of Open Gym and class offerings for preschool and school-aged youth at the Durango Gymnastics facility. “Like many programs, preschool, school aged or adult open gym was not offered at Durango Gymnastics during covid and preschool and school aged open gym has not been brought back as of yet,” said Nycum. “We do, however, after re-opening many facilities have many class offerings for youth gymnastics where kids…
Serra Meyer, a nurse at Mercy Regional Medical Center, gave some highly inaccurate information about the occupancy of the intensive care unit at Mercy Medical Center during a feedback session with the Durango School District 9-R on August 3, 2021. Later that same month, the school district hired her on as a “Health Services Provider” for Riverview Elementary.
Vaccination would be required in order to attend a Parks and Recreation Advisory Board meeting under an unwritten policy based on feelings that’s being championed by several board members. The originally scheduled August 11th meeting was intended to be the first in-person meeting since since the COVID-19 mandates were lifted. After I refused to disclose my vaccination status, city staff changed it to a virtual Zoom meeting two days beforehand. Parks and Recreation Board Chair Anthony Savastano took the lead on requesting the private medical…
Parents, teachers and medical professionals voiced sharply divided opinions about what COVID-19 risk management strategies Durango School District 9-R should take for students in the 2021-2022 school year at a meeting this week. By far the most contentious policies were those of face masking and COVID vaccinations. Should they be required? After the new superintendent Dr. Karen Cheser introduced herself, the first speaker was a teacher from 9R. Parent teacher who requests medical freedom Tory Queen, a teacher and parent, questioned the efficacy of…
A community feedback session on COVID-19 mitigation guidelines for the 2021-2022 District 9-R school year is scheduled for Tuesday, August 3rd at 5:30 p.m. at the Durango High School auditorium. District 9-R has a number of considerations regarding guidelines for COVID-19 in schools that are based on recommendations that were issued by the Center of Disease Control and the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment. Their considerations are the following: Continuing daily symptom screening/stay home when sick Masking for unvaccinated students and staff Maintain…
This post contains a point-of-view video that I took of my mountain bike descent at Ned’s Hill trail in Overend Mountain Park in Durango.
A facial covering requirement alarmingly precludes the encouragement of exercise and sunlight exposure in a written plan of Durango School District 9-R for students and staff. Specifically, Durango School District 9-R appears to have adopted a three-tiered COVID-19 risk mitigation plan with the intention of safely and effectively managing in-person learning for all students. As a means for ensuring the health and safety of District 9-R students and staff one of the basic requirements for meeting this goal is to require students to wear a…
The death of a Durango veteran while he was isolated from his family in a nursing home came after receiving a Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccination and a battle with dementia. Burnie Gurule, 85 years old, died on Mar. 18, 2021 at Four Corners Health Care Center in Durango of perimyocarditis, according to the death certificate. Specifically, perimyocarditis is primarily a myocarditic syndrome, according to the Amercian College of Physicians. It’s a condition where the body’s immune system causes the heart muscle to become inflamed in response…
