An American Airlines passenger threatened to take down a plane with his fellow passengers‚ calling them “blue-eyed white devils” According to Fox News‚ Shail Patel‚ 29‚ threatened to “take this plane down with all you motherf****** on it.” Patel was reportedly drunk when he boarded a flight from Philadelphia to Tampa. NEW – American Airlines passenger threatened to take down the plane with all passengers on it: reporthttps://t.co/iqN9WQ9q19 — Insider Paper (@TheInsiderPaper) March 22‚ 2024 American Airlines passenger seen in viral video yelled about ‘blue-eyed white devils’ and threatened to ‘take this plane down’: affidavit https://t.co/KERTco5Rnn pic.twitter.com/nRR1obST39 — New York Post (@nypost) March 23‚ 2024 Per Fox News: The report stated he was acting hostile after he boarded and “began acting erratically‚ yelling and cursing at the passengers.” Patel called passengers “blue-eyed white devils” and threatened to “take this plane down with all you motherf—— on it‚” according to court documents. He is also accused of slapping a passenger on the hand and face and spitting on them. Video footage of the incident showed Patel yelling an antisemitic slur at a flight attendant before he was put in a headlock by a fellow passenger and removed from the aircraft. “I’m trying to get to my home country and you people made it harder for me to get to my home country‚” he was heard yelling at one point in the video. A flight attendant used the aircraft’s public address system to ask if any off-duty police officers were on board who could help restrain Patel. Police said six off-duty law enforcement officers stepped in and took him off the plane. WATCH: NEW: A belligerent American Airlines passenger was put in a headlock and dragged out by a fellow flyer before takeoff.   The man allegedly struck someone‚ prompting him to become enraged and spew anti-Semitic slurs. During the outburst the man yelled an anti-Semitic slur and… pic.twitter.com/9MShfFeP3l — I Meme Therefore I Am (@ImMeme0) March 21‚ 2024 From the New York Post: In one clip‚ Patel‚ dressed in a striped button-down shirt‚ could be heard calling a crew member a “k–e.” “I’m trying to get to my home country and you all people made it harder for me to get to my home country‚” he shouted. Another video showed a fed-up flyer in a blue hoodie and baseball hat grabbing Patel and putting him in a headlock after a shoving match. “Now put your hands down and don’t touch anybody‚” the man screamed as he kept his counterpart in the headlock. “I’m a police officer‚” said a woman in a backwards hat as she approached the duo‚ leading the man in blue to reply‚ “So am I.” “Turn around and walk‚” the man in blue told the disruptive passenger as he continued to restrain his arms. The disturbance caused the flight to be delayed by 30 minutes as cops were called to deal with the disruptive traveler.

According to a report from the Pentagon’s internal watchdog‚ the military’s medical examiner mishandled a substantial number of organs removed during autopsies. The medical examiner reportedly removed organs‚ including people’s brains and hearts‚ without notifying family members. In some cases‚ it was against the family’s wishes. “For years‚ the Armed Forces Medical Examiner System‚ which conducts autopsies on service members and others who die under federal jurisdiction‚ lacked consistent procedures for handling and storing organs removed during autopsies‚ the Pentagon’s Inspector General found‚” NBC News reports. The military’s medical examiner retained hundreds of organs removed during autopsies — including people’s brains and hearts — frequently without notifying family members or‚ in some instances‚ against their wishes‚ according to a watchdog report. https://t.co/pFaSiGLm8U — NBC News (@NBCNews) March 23‚ 2024 Per NBC News: A Department of Defense official confirmed on Friday that the military’s medical examiner retained 553 “specimens” belonging to 433 people at its Dover Air Force Base morgue in Delaware. The official said the military is not actively contacting those relatives but instead is asking people who suspect a loved one may be included in that tally to email the military to reclaim the remains. “It’s mainly in order to not retraumatize families‚” the official added of the decision not to proactively inform families. “Some of these are from many‚ many years ago.” The Pentagon’s Inspector General warned that because the medical examiner did not keep complete and accurate records for retained organs‚ officials may not be able to effectively answer families’ questions‚ which “could cause emotional distress.” The Armed Forces Medical Examiner System has mishandled a substantial number of organs it collected from autopsies in recent years‚ according to new findings by the Pentagon’s Inspector General.https://t.co/s4HrME5yO8 — Stars and Stripes (@starsandstripes) March 20‚ 2024 Stars and Stripes added: Defense Department officials failed to get next-of-kin instruction on how to dispose of organs for more than half of the 208 people who died that were included in the IG’s study. The families of most of those people‚ 91%‚ were never told AFMES had retained an organ‚ the report said. When disposition instructions were obtained‚ DOD officials failed to follow them 41% of the time‚ according to the report. The system also failed to effectively track organs that examiners retained during autopsies‚ meaning DOD officials may not be able to respond to requests by families for information on the status of those remains. The IG warned this may “cause emotional distress” for families who were missing the remains retained by AFMES‚ and who had plans to bury or dispose of them in another way. The mismanagement was a result of the medical examiner system “not having clear policies and procedures in place to track retention‚ transportation‚ storage or release of the retained organs‚” the report said.

Researchers at the University of Cincinnati and Northwestern University developed a “tool in artificial intelligence” to predict whether someone is willing to receive a COVID-19 shot. The “system integrates the math of human judgment with machine learning to predict vaccine hesitancy‚” according to the University of Cincinnati. “We used a small number of variables and minimal computational resources to make predictions‚” said lead author Nicole Vike‚ a senior research associate in UC’s College of Engineering and Applied Science. “COVID-19 is unlikely to be the last pandemic we see in the next decades. Having a new form of AI for prediction in public health provides a valuable tool that could help prepare hospitals for predicting vaccination rates and consequential infection rates‚” Vike continued. So‚ if you don’t want an experimental injection‚ an AI tool will find you. Don’t Want a Vaccine? New AI Tool Will Find You https://t.co/Wwg5t8jm2S — The Vigilant Fox (@VigilantFox) March 23‚ 2024 From the University of Cincinnati: Researchers surveyed 3‚476 adults across the United States in 2021 during the COVID-19 pandemic. At the time of the survey‚ the first vaccines had been available for more than a year. Respondents provided information such as where they live‚ income‚ highest education level completed‚ ethnicity and access to the internet. The respondents’ demographics mirrored those of the United States based on U.S. Census Bureau figures. Participants were asked if they had received either of the available COVID-19 vaccines. About 73% of respondents said they were vaccinated‚ slightly more than the 70% of the nation’s population that had been vaccinated in 2021. Further‚ they were asked if they routinely followed four recommendations designed to prevent the spread of the virus: wearing a mask‚ social distancing‚ washing their hands and not gathering in large groups. Participants were asked to rate how much they liked or disliked a randomly sequenced set of 48 pictures on a seven-point scale of 3 to -3. The pictures were from the International Affective Picture Set‚ a large set of emotionally evocative color photographs‚ in six categories: sports‚ disasters‚ cute animals‚ aggressive animals‚ nature and food. Vike said the goal of this exercise is to quantify mathematical features of people’s judgments as they observe mildly emotional stimuli. Measures from this task include concepts familiar to behavioral economists — or even people who gamble — such aversion to risk (the point at which someone is willing to accept potential loss for a potential reward) and aversion to loss. This is the willingness to avoid risk by‚ for example‚ obtaining insurance. “The framework by which we judge what is rewarding or aversive is fundamental to how we make medical decisions‚” said co-senior author Hans Breiter‚ a professor of computer science at UC. “A seminal paper in 2017 hypothesized the existence of a standard model of the mind. Using a small set of variables from mathematical psychology to predict medical behavior would support such a model. The work of this collaborative team has provided such support and argues that the mind is a set of equations akin to what is used in particle physics.” New U of Cincinnati developed AI is working to pinpoint those choosing not to jab. Will likely lead to authoritarian compulsive policies for those dissenters deemed mentally deficient in some way???https://t.co/nEb9dkv6DB — Elise Villemaire (@Villainessa) March 22‚ 2024 “Despite COVID-19 vaccine mandates‚ many chose to forgo vaccination‚ raising questions about the psychology underlying how judgment affects these choices. Research shows that reward and aversion judgments are important for vaccination choice; however‚ no studies have integrated such cognitive science with machine learning to predict COVID-19 vaccine uptake‚” the researchers wrote. “This study aims to determine the predictive power of a small but interpretable set of judgment variables using 3 machine learning algorithms to predict COVID-19 vaccine uptake and interpret what profile of judgment variables was important for prediction‚” they added. Brian Hooker‚ Ph.D.‚ chief scientific officer for Children’s Health Defense‚ said the tool implies that vaccine-hesitant individuals have mental health problems. “The whole implication here is that nonconformity to the government propaganda machine’s standard of care makes one some type of mental case or extreme outlier. The whole thing smacks of a Brave New World where potentially non-compliant individuals are targeted with messaging based on fear and irrationality‚” Hooker said‚ according to The Defender. AI can predict people's attitudes to vaccines | University of Cincinnati https://t.co/ySSQSCNule (mentions @jmirpub) — JMIR Publications (@jmirpub) March 19‚ 2024 The Defender reports: The study’s authors said the technology also could be used to “aid vaccine rollouts and health care preparedness by providing location-specific details” — in other words‚ identifying geographic areas that may experience low vaccination and high hospitalization rates‚ according to the study. Critics questioned the study’s claims and also said they were worried about the potential adverse uses of this technology. “The main problem with research like this is the underlying premise: Vaccine hesitancy must be accounted for in terms of the (aberrant) psychology of the subjects and not with reference to the efficacy and safety of the vaccine(s) in question‚” said Michael Rectenwald‚ Ph.D.‚ author of “Google Archipelago: The Digital Gulag and the Simulation of Freedom.” As a result‚ Rectenwald said‚ it’s implied that “if people are vaccine-hesitant‚ the fault is endemic to them rather than to the vaccine itself. From this premise‚ the research seeks to justify vaccination as normal by linking anomalous mental and psychological characteristics with vaccine hesitancy.” This may lead to individuals being targeted‚ Rectenwald said: “Using AI to predict vaccine hesitancy on these terms might include mobilizing AI programs to target and even identify individually vaccine-hesitant subjects. We might also expect AI programs that seek to overcome vaccine hesitancy with attempts to ‘reprogram’ said defective subjects. “At the very least‚ identifying‚ targeting and re-educating vaccine hesitant subjects is in the offing.” Read the study‚ titled ‘Predicting COVID-19 Vaccination Uptake Using a Small and Interpretable Set of Judgment and Demographic Variables: Cross-Sectional Cognitive Science Study‚’ HERE.
