In an interview with The Defender, Naomi Wolf, journalist and CEO of Daily Clout, detailed the serious vaccine-related injuries that Pfizer and the FDA knew of by early 2021, but tried to hide from the public.

Pfizer knew about the inadequacies of its COVID-19 vaccine trials and the vaccine’s many serious adverse effects, and so did the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). But the FDA promoted the vaccines anyway — and later tried to hide the data from the public, according to Naomi Wolf, editor of “The Pfizer Papers: Pfizer’s Crimes Against Humanity.”

In an interview with The Defender, Wolf detailed the serious vaccine-related injuries that Pfizer and the FDA knew of by early 2021, based on the data from Pfizer’s clinical trials and post-marketing studies.

To produce “The Pfizer Papers,” Wolf, a journalist and CEO of Daily Clout, and Daily Clout Chief Operations Officer Amy Kelly convened thousands of volunteer scientists and doctors to analyze Pfizer data and supplementary data from other public reporting systems to capture the full scope of the vaccines’ effects. They

Wolf and Kelly obtained the data from the Public Health and Medical Professionals for Transparency, a group of more than 30 medical professionals and scientists who sued the FDA in 2021 to force the agency to release the data, after the FDA refused to comply with a Freedom of Information Act request.

A federal court in 2022 ordered the agency to release 450,000 internal documents pertaining to the licensing of the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine.

No journalist could take on the ‘Pfizer Papers’ alone

Wolf worked for decades as a journalist in liberal legacy media. In 2020, as she watched the rights to free assembly and other liberties suspended under the guise of emergency declarations, she became a vocal critic of the constitutional violations imposed on Americans, she told The Defender.

Wolf was equally critical of the COVID-19 vaccines and alarmed by the widespread use of incentives to get people to take the emergency use authorized shots. “I’m not a medical doctor, I’m not a scientist,” she said. “I was an English major and even I know how dangerous that is. It’s madness.”

In June 2021, Wolf tweeted her concern that there were widespread reports women were suffering menstrual dysregulation after taking the shots. She called for more investigation.

“Immediately the next day, I was deplatformed from every social media platform,” she said. “And simultaneous hit pieces that were nearly identical were launched in pretty much every major news outlet” — including outlets for which she had been a columnist.

“All over the world and in every language I was turned into an anti-vaxxer conspiracy theorist overnight,” she said.

Wolf was exiled from legacy media, but new doors opened. “Steve Bannon invited me on ‘The War Room’ and gave me a platform,” she said. There, she discussed the challenge of sifting through the Pfizer documents released by the FDA.

The data release was monumental and the documents were highly technical and scientific. “No journalist could have the bandwidth to go through them all,” Wolf said.

Bannon suggested she organize a volunteer team of scientists to take up the charge. Wolf put out a call and 3,250 highly credentialed scientists responded. Kelly organized them into working groups that have systematically issued key reports about what Wolf said, “turns out to be the greatest crime against humanity in recorded history.”

“The Pfizer documents are a stunning revelation of corporate greed and dishonesty, with utter disregard for the law, and Americans’ actual health,” Bannon wrote in his introduction to the book.

A ‘crime against humanity’

Wolf told The Defender that because her grandparents lost eight siblings in the Holocaust, she didn’t use the language “crime against humanity” lightly. However, she said, the reports make clear that given what Pfizer knew about the damage to human health caused by the mRNA COVID-19 shots, “There’s no way to avoid concluding that this is not carelessness, it’s not greed, it’s not sloppiness at the manufacturing plant.”

“As they say in tech, ‘it’s not a bug, it’s a feature,’” she said. “In other words, damaging humans in very specific ways, very early on, was obviously a result of these injections. And instead of stopping, or pulling them off the market, Pfizer doubled down, the FDA doubled down and the CDC [Centers for Disease Control and Prevention] doubled down.”

Wolf said Pfizer, the FDA and CDC made those decisions knowing that 1,223 people died from the shots in the first three months. They did it knowing that the vaccine didn’t stop infection, that it caused a long list of serious side effects in tens of thousands of people, she said.

Pfizer also manipulated data to get the FDA to sign off on the emergency use authorization (EUA), she said. In what Wolf called “one of the most damning reports in this book,” Australian anesthesiologist Dr. Jeyanthi Kunadhasan’s team found that Pfizer delayed recording deaths so they did not have to be included as part of its EUA data filing.

The researchers concluded that if Pfizer had recorded and reported the deaths in a timely manner, the FDA wouldn’t have been able to grant an EUA for the vaccine.

42,000 serious adverse events in three months, mostly in women

The “Pfizer Papers” analysts found over 42,000 case reports detailing 158,893 adverse events reported to Pfizer in the first three months following the December 2020 EUA. To process the large volume of reports, the company added 600 additional employees, the documents showed, with plans to hire a total of 1,800 people by June 2021.

Wolf said:

“These are tens of thousands of blood clots, lung clots, leg clots, neurological disorders, epilepsies, dementia, Alzheimer’s, bell’s palsy, tremors, convulsions, liver damage, kidney damage, stroke, so many kinds of skin eruptions, eye damage, blindness, respiratory illness.”

The most common side effect was myalgia or muscle pain and the second-most common side effect was joint pain, which people often don’t realize is related to the injection, she said. The third most common side effect was COVID-19 because the vaccine didn’t stop transmission.

However, “the centerpiece” of “The Pfizer Papers” is Pfizer’s experimentation on human reproduction, Wolf said. The papers reveal that Pfizer knew early on that the shots were causing menstrual damage at scale, she said.

The company reported to the FDA that 72% of the recorded adverse events were in women. Of those, about 16% involved reproductive disorders and functions.

The papers show that in the clinical trials, thousands of women experienced daily bleeding, hemorrhaging, and passing of tissue, and thousands of women reported that their menstrual cycle stopped completely.

“They knew they were ruining women,” she said.

Pfizer even told vaccinated men not to have intercourse with women of childbearing age, and if they did, to use two reliable forms of contraception, she added.

Effects on babies ‘will chill your soul’

Pfizer was aware that lipid nanoparticles from the shots accumulated in the ovaries and crossed the placental barrier, compromising the placenta and keeping nutrients from the baby in utero, Wolf said.

Babies had to be delivered early, she said, and women were hemorrhaging in childbirth.

That also means that the particles entered the amniotic sac, and the membranes around the testes of baby boys, according to the papers. The future effects on those baby boys are unknown.

One of the most disturbing reports in the papers, she said, is the pregnancy lactation report, “that will chill your soul.” The report describes the effects on nursing babies of recently vaccinated mothers. The list includes fever, vomiting and edema, or swollen tissue, among many other issues.

“One baby convulsed and died in the hospital of multi-organ failure,” Wolf said. “These babies were inconsolable. They [Pfizer] knew they were poisoning breast milk, and to this day they haven’t told vaccinated moms not to breastfeed.”

The report also includes a description of two babies who died in utero, she said, which Pfizer concluded was due to maternal exposure to the vaccine.

Pfizer sent the pregnancy and lactation report detailing the vaccine’s effects on women and babies to the FDA on April 20, 2021. Two days later, CDC Director Rochelle Walensky gave a White House press conference, during which she told women there was no bad time to get a COVID-19 shot — before, during or after pregnancy.

‘What’s the point of legacy media if they won’t cover the story?’

In a Google search for “The Pfizer Papers,” the first unsponsored search result is a Pfizer webpage titled Fighting Harmful Effects of Covid Vaccine Misinformation, followed by a Lancet article on COVID-19 vaccine efficacy and effectiveness.

Wolf said she’s been fighting this type of censorship since she was first deplatformed.

“As a journalist, what is so devastatingly upsetting to me is that this is the biggest story of the 21st century, and The New York Times and The Washington Post have done nothing about it,” even though Wolf publicly offered to share her materials with them.

“The only coverage has been from alternative media, which is just heartbreaking,” she said. “What’s the point of legacy media if they won’t cover the story?”

Wolf said that because the reports in “The Pfizer Papers” are summaries of Pfizer data that link to primary source documents, they can’t be dismissed. They’re not interpretive, she said. They are not scientists’ and doctors’ opinions.

‘These scientists and doctors have done a service to humanity’

Wolf said in the midst of this “depressing overview of a horrible crime,” “The Pfizer Papers” also offered some hope for the vaccine-injured.

In many cases, the expert analysis provided a detailed explanation of how the vaccine caused the damage. Understanding how the damage occurred, said Wolf, “helps us to begin to understand how to treat this kind of damage.”

Inflammatory conditions can be mitigated through changing diet and other practices, she said. For all of the people facing blood clotting and other blood issues, there are also ways to support healthy blood flow.

These may be examples, she said, of “very crude initial responses to a very sophisticated assault on the human body. But to me, they’re very hopeful because people are desperate and they feel like ticking time bombs.”

She added:

“These scientists and doctors have done such a service to humanity because they’ve really deeply analyzed how this bioweapon so delicately hurt every single system of the human body.

“And by truly understanding that, you see how to begin to — I don’t want to say unwind or undo the damage. I don’t know if that’s possible —but how to help the body to support its own healing.”

Harald Walach, Ph.D., founder of Germany’s Change Health Science Institute and professional research fellow at Kazimieras Simonavicius University in Lithuania, told The Defender the survey results likely don’t show the full extent of COVID-19 vaccine-related injuries.

OCTOBER 17, 2024

One in 6 respondents to a survey in Germany reported experiencing side effects after receiving a COVID-19 shot, German newspaper Neue Osnabrücker Zeitung reported.

The survey, conducted by Germany’s Forsa Institute on behalf of the newspaper and the online magazine “Multipolar,” polled 1,002 people between Oct. 7-8.

According to The Gateway Pundit, “A significant 17 percent of respondents openly stated they did not ‘tolerate the COVID vaccination well overall.’”

Commenting on the 1 in 6 statistic, Steve Kirsch, founder of the Vaccine Safety Research Foundation, told The Defender, “That is not a safe vaccine. I mean, you should be calling up these guys who are promoting the vaccine and ask them, with 1 in 6 people reporting side effects, how that’s a safe vaccine?”

According to the survey, 73% of respondents did not report adverse reactions. An additional 10% of respondents reported not getting the COVID-19 vaccine.

Christof Plothe, D.O., a member of the World Council for Health’s steering committee, said the survey “also asked whether the respondents ‘personally knew’ someone who experienced severe side effects after the mRNA treatment. The number is also explosive: 35% answered ‘yes.’”

Harald Walach, Ph.D., founder and director of the Change Health Science Institute in Germany and professional research fellow at Kazimieras Simonavicius University in Lithuania, told The Defender the survey results likely don’t show the full extent of adverse events following COVID-19 vaccination.

“Whether people or doctors attribute causality of the symptoms to the vaccination depends on their attitude,” Walach said. “So it might be the case that side effects that start later, say six months later, such as an autoimmune disease, will not easily be attributed to the vaccination, even though it might be.”

Plothe noted there are “hardly any recognized vaccination injuries, and people are still told by their doctor that their changes in health are not gene therapy-related. “But here, 17% complained of adverse side effects, according to the survey, so 11 million Germans could have experienced side effects,” Plothe said.

“The actual number, including the long-term results, is expected to be even higher,” Plothe added.

The Gateway Pundit cited data from Germany’s IMPF COVID-19 Vaccination Dashboard showing that, as of April 2023, 77.9% of the German population had received at least one dose of a COVID-19 vaccine, 62.6% had received at least one booster and 15.2% received at least two booster doses. The data show 22.1% of the population were unvaccinated.

Survey results ‘just scratching the tip of the iceberg’

“With all the so far known mechanisms of harm, including the effects of DNA plasmid contamination and genomic integration of the injections, we are just scratching the tip of the iceberg,” Plothe said.

Walach said he also was “not at all” surprised by the survey’s outcome. “Two years ago, Andreas Schöfbeck, the CEO of a small German insurer, BKK ProVita, raised alarms, because he saw many severe side effects as a consequence of the vaccination campaign in his data.”

“He extrapolated that at least 5% of the German population had severe side effects,” Walach said. Yet, “No one listened, and he was fired.”

In 2022, Germany’s National Association for Statutory Health Insurance Physicians provided data indicating a “more than fourfold” increase in the number of people who died “suddenly and unexpectedly” in 2021 and 2022 compared to previous years.

“That’s insane,” Kirsch said. “You can’t have a fourfold increase in sudden deaths. Tell me another safe vaccine that increases all-cause mortality by four times.”

Plothe said the official data in Germany likely underrepresents the true prevalence of adverse events related to the COVID-19 vaccines.

“So far, the data of the German Paul-Ehrlich-Institut only shows 340,000 side effects. This starkly contrasts with the data from this survey of 11 million people who could have experienced them,” Plothe said.

According to Walach, the Paul-Ehrlich-Institut, the Federal Institute for Vaccines and Biomedicine, recently stopped monitoring vaccine-related adverse events. He said:

“What is a huge scandal is the fact that the Paul-Ehrlich-Institut … has shut down its adverse events database with the argument it is all going into the European database. So, we have no data at all, not only no reliable data, no data at all. And of the few surveys, such as this one, it is difficult to tell how reliable they are.

“In the few court cases where officials of the Paul-Ehrlich-Institut had to answer, it became clear that they were overwhelmed, did not have the personnel and had official orders from the Ministry of Health to not further pursue this.”

According to Albert Benavides, founder of VAERSAware.com, which tracks adverse event reports filed with VAERS, the U.S. government-run Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System, “Germany outpaces every other country in the world with foreign severe adverse events reports in VAERS.”

“By population and proportion, Germany is No. 1 in almost every metric, and also holds the No. 1 position with 2,681 reports,” Benavides said.

Since November 2022, Germany and other European countries no longer report to VAERS “because of the arbitrary request by the European Medicines Agency and the [U.K.] Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency to conceal critical data fields on the premise of patient confidentiality,” Benavides said.

“Since only a fraction of reports actually get cross-walked into VAERS from Germany via EudraVigilance, I could only imagine there must be heavy human damage in Germany,” Benavides added. “At this point, with the suppression of data all around the world, who knows if Germany is a high-water mark or par for the course?”

German toxicologist Helmut Sterz, previously a researcher for major pharmaceutical companies, told The Defender that “extrapolating from the behavior of [Dr. Karl] Lauterbach and the Robert Koch Institute — the German public health institute — I cannot see the willingness to make official data for Germany available.”

The Robert Koch Institute (RKI) is the German equivalent of the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

Plothe said it’s worth remembering that Lauterbacch, Germany’s Federal Minister of Health, described the COVID-19 vaccines as “safe and effective,” and for a long time, as “free of side effects.” Lauterbach “is still in office,” Plothe said.

In March 2023, Lauterbach admitted that COVID-19 vaccine adverse events are prevalent and victims are being ignored — after previously denying publicly that the COVID-19 vaccines were connected to adverse events.

In July, an unnamed whistleblower in Germany released what became known as the “RKI Files,” showing that Germany’s response to the COVID-19 pandemic was based on political objectives, with the government implementing countermeasures that often contradicted scientific evidence and the opinion of government scientists.

‘The entire medical community should be calling for a halt of these vaccines’

The survey also showed that 40% of respondents supported the launch of an official government inquiry into the German government’s COVID-19 policies and vaccine rollout. Only 29% of respondents said they supported “legal investigations with appropriate consequences” for “the politicians responsible” for these policies.

Walach said he does not expect Germany will establish such an inquiry.

“They are under huge pressure for a lot of bad politics, COVID being the heritage of the previous government mainly,” Walach said. “So, they will try to avoid more publicity if they can.”

However, Walach said that if the German government comes “under more pressure,” it’s possible “they might choose to open this can of worms to avoid several others — but it is difficult to predict.”

Plothe said that so far, the German government has denied a need for a COVID-19 inquiry, but one of the country’s largest opposition parties, the Alternative for Germany (AfD), has just called for a hearing.

“In the counties in which the AfD gained enough support in the last elections, especially in the east of Germany, a call for an investigation with massive opposition of the parties responsible for the COVID measures exists,” Plothe said.

Walach said similar calls were made in the Brandenberg region, “and there are many more voices being raised these days,” though “the powers that be are trying to ignore them.”

For Sterz, the survey results show “the majority of people seem to have no interest in understanding what has happened since 2020 and to find out who is responsible.” He said this is reminiscent “of the first years after World War II [when] nobody wanted to know and to discuss because everybody had at least tolerated the criminal national socialist government.”

“Only a tsunami of severe side effects would wake the people up,” Sterz said.

The release of the survey — and the calls, by segments of the German population, for a national COVID-19 inquiry — come as a similar inquiry in Slovakia produced a report calling on that country’s government to ban “dangerous” mRNA vaccines.

However, a recent proposal for a COVID-19 inquiry — by Lauterbach himself — was quashed by the country’s coalition government, Berliner Zeitung reported.

COVID-19 inquiries in some other countries, including New Zealand, the U.K. and Canada, have been accused of ignoring vaccine injuries and the harms of pandemic-related countermeasures, such as lockdowns and mask mandates.

Kirsch suggested that Germany and other countries — and scientists and doctors — follow Slovakia’s example. “The entire medical community should be calling for a halt of these vaccines,” Kirsch said.

Journalist and author John Leake told The Defender that while “Slovakia’s bold posture about all manner of major public policy issues has been astonishing, Slovakia is a tiny country and its influence is limited” in the European Union.

Plothe said German media have largely ignored the survey results — and stories relating to vaccine-related adverse events. He highlighted a lack of public knowledge about the “RKI Files” as an example of this lack of media coverage.

“Only 28% of Germans have heard of the RKI Files. The vast majority know nothing about it,” Plothe said.

Sterz said the media “are co-responsible for the catastrophe by supporting the unreasonable and dangerous vaccination campaign and pandemic measures, and the insane polemic against unvaccinated people, for which they have been financially supported by Big Pharma.”

Sterz accused mainstream media of being reluctant to criticize COVID-19 policies today because “they might be attacked as being partly responsible for the hundreds of thousands of victims of severe side effects and deaths.”

Testosterone Shields Against COVID-19, Study Shows


Reproduced from original article:

Analysis by Dr. Joseph Mercola     October 04, 2024

testosterone shields against covid 19

STORY AT-A-GLANCE

  • CYP19A1, a gene encoding aromatase that converts testosterone to estradiol, has also been linked to COVID-19 severity. A mutation in this gene, which increases aromatase activity, is found in 68.7% of men hospitalized with COVID-19
  • Short pinky fingers are associated with lower testosterone levels. A July 2024 study published in Andrology confirmed that COVID-19 patients who had shorter pinky fingers — indicative of lower testosterone levels — experienced more severe outcomes
  • Testosterone production declines with age, starting around age 30. Other factors like chronic diseases, stress, poor diet and environmental factors also contribute to reduced testosterone levels. Symptoms of low testosterone include fatigue, irritability, reduced libido, infertility and changes in body composition
  • Niacinamide naturally increases your testosterone levels by raising NAD+. Studies show it’s helpful for addressing age-related testosterone decline in both males and females
  • Additional strategies to boost your testosterone include regular exercise, adequate sun exposure to optimize vitamin D levels and herbal remedies like fenugreek and ashwagandha

Testosterone, also known as the male sex hormone, is important for the health of both genders. This steroid hormone is primarily produced in men’s testicles and, to a lesser extent, in women’s ovaries. It’s responsible for the development of male secondary sexual characteristics, muscle mass and strength, bone density and the production of red blood cells.1

It also influences mood, energy levels and cognitive function in both sexes.2 However, testosterone levels in men naturally decline with age. Previous research3,4 suggested that this decline in testosterone affects elderly men’s risk of severe COVID-19.

To further investigate the link between testosterone levels and COVID-19 severity, a study published in July 2024 in the journal Andrology5 examined testosterone-dependent finger length patterns in hospitalized COVID-19 patients compared to a control group. Their findings uncovered important insights about testosterone’s protective role against severe COVID-19 outcomes.

Further Proof of Testosterone’s Role in COVID Severity

The featured study,6 conducted at the Medical University of Lodz in Poland, examined two competing theories regarding testosterone’s impact on COVID-19 prognosis. The first, known as the high-androgen-driven theory, suggests that elevated testosterone levels cause the virus to infect cells more effectively.

Conversely, the second theory purports that lower testosterone levels, particularly common in elderly men, heighten their immune response to COVID-19, resulting in worse outcomes. To investigate these theories, the researchers analyzed finger length ratios — specifically comparing the index and little fingers — in hospitalized COVID-19 patients versus healthy controls.

This approach is based on the theory that digit ratios are influenced by exposure to testosterone and estrogen during fetal development and puberty. Longer index fingers are associated with low testosterone/high estrogen exposure, while longer little or pinkie fingers indicate high testosterone/low estrogen exposure.

Their findings showed that hospitalized COVID-19 patients consistently had shorter little fingers relative to their other fingers when compared to the control group, a “feminized” pattern indicative of lower testosterone levels. This supports the low-androgen-driven theory, which suggests that reduced testosterone contributes to more severe COVID-19 outcomes.

The lead researcher, Professor John Manning from Swansea University’s Applied Sports, Technology, Exercise and Medicine (A-STEM) research team, explained:7

“The patients had digit ratios that indicated low testosterone before and after birth. The pattern was present at the beginning of the pandemic and after widespread vaccination. This means we can conclude that testosterone is protective against severe COVID-19. The effect may arise because the hormone reduces inflammation in the lungs and other organs. The findings have public health and treatment implications.”

A Key Gene in Testosterone Metabolism Affects COVID Severity

In an earlier study published in Cell Reports Medicine,8 researchers uncovered another testosterone-related factor affecting COVID-19 severity in men — a gene called CYP19A1. The study, led by Gülsah Gabriel from the Leibniz Institute of Virology, builds on a decade of work investigating similar patterns in avian influenza.

CYP19A1 encodes aromatase, an enzyme that converts testosterone to estradiol. The researchers found that a specific mutation in this gene is present in 68.7% of men hospitalized with COVID-19, despite being rare in the general population. This mutation is known to increase aromatase activity, leading to lower testosterone and higher estradiol levels.

Moreover, the researchers found that SARS-CoV-2 infection itself dramatically increases aromatase expression in lung cells, far more than other respiratory viruses. These findings were corroborated through various methods, including analysis of human COVID-19 patients, examination of lung tissue from deceased patients, and experiments with golden hamsters.

In infected male hamsters, CYP19A1 expression increased significantly in the lungs, resulting in decreased testosterone and elevated estradiol levels in their plasma. This hormonal imbalance appears to contribute to more severe COVID-19 outcomes in males.

Interestingly, the researchers found that treating infected male hamsters with letrozole, an aromatase inhibitor, partially restored hormonal balance and improved lung health. These findings not only offer insights into why men face higher risks from COVID-19 but also highlight the often-overlooked role of hormones in respiratory infections.

As Gabriel notes, “It is one of the first studies [showing] that the lung, which is not a classical or typical endocrine organ, suddenly can become an endocrine organ upon infection. It seems that [respiratory viruses] can have long-lasting effects if they dysregulate the enzymes.”9

What Causes Testosterone Production to Decrease?

Testosterone production in men is regulated by signals from the brain to the pituitary gland. The pituitary gland then signals the testes to produce testosterone, and a “feedback loop” continuously monitors levels of this hormone in the blood. Any disruption to this system leads to declining testosterone levels.10

In healthy adult males, testosterone levels usually range from 300 to 1,000 nanograms per deciliter (ng/dL).11 Age-related decrease in testosterone production, also known as andropause, begins around age 30, with testosterone decreasing by about 1% per year on average.12 By the time men reach their 70s, many have testosterone levels 30% less than what they had in their peak years.13

Aside from aging, genetic conditions and other illnesses also contribute to a decrease in testosterone levels. These include:14,15

Chronic diseases like diabetes, obesity, and liver or kidney disease Lifestyle factors such as stress, poor diet and lack of exercise
Medications that interfere with hormonal balance Congenital disorders like Klinefelter syndrome and Turner syndrome
Sleep apnea Exposure to endocrine-disrupting chemicals (EDCs)
High polyunsaturated fat (PUFA) and phytoestrogen intake Environmental pollutants

Symptoms of Low Testosterone Levels

Low levels of circulating testosterone cause symptoms of androgen deficiency. Androgens are a group of sex hormones, which include testosterone. The clinical symptoms of low testosterone vary widely, depending on the onset of androgen deficiency, whether the issue lies in sperm production or testosterone synthesis, is associated with an underlying genetic factor, or whether there’s a history of androgen therapy.16 Symptoms of androgen deficiency include:17

Fatigue Irritability
Infertility Poor feeling of well-being
Decreased libido Reduced frequency and quality of erections

Men may also experience gynecomastia (enlarged breast tissue), hot flashes, sweating, fatigue, reduced muscle mass and increased body fat.18 In some cases, unrelated issues like a history of Type 2 diabetes, obesity, metabolic syndrome or other systemic diseases that affect testosterone physiology are present.19 A study in the journal Molecular Psychiatry20 also links testosterone deficiency to anxiety disorders.

Niacinamide Naturally Increases Testosterone Levels

One way to increase your testosterone levels naturally is by taking niacinamide (aka, nicotinamide, a form of vitamin B3 or niacin), which is also crucial for healthy mitochondrial function and cellular energy production. A February 2022 study published in the journal Nature Aging21 demonstrated that niacinamide treats problems associated with declining testosterone levels due to aging.

They found that by raising NAD+, niacinamide improves local testosterone distribution, which is essential for supporting the tissues and organs affected by reduced testosterone levels. These findings confirm that niacinamide is a necessary cofactor to address the nearly universal decline in testosterone in both men and women. As explained by bioenergetic medicine expert Georgi Dinkov:22

“[T]he findings that androgen (in this case, testosterone) deficiency seen almost universally with advancing age is due primarily to deficiency of the co-factor NAD+, which can be remediated by supplementing NAD+ precursors such as niacinamide.

It appears that the rate-limiting step for androgen (testosterone) synthesis is the enzyme 3b-HSD, for which NAD+ is the main cofactor. Thus, a decline in NAD+ seen in aging (and disease) leads to decline in 3b-HSD activity and thus reduced androgen (testosterone) levels.”

To address declining testosterone, I recommend taking:

  • 50 mg of niacinamide three times a day
  • 5 mg to 10 mg of DHEA orally once a day
  • 50 mg of oral pregnenolone once a day

Ideally, take the hormone supplements DHEA and pregnenolone with a saturated fat, like a teaspoon of butter, to make sure they bypass metabolism in the liver, which will radically decrease their effectiveness.

Additional Ways to Optimize Your Testosterone Production

In addition to taking niacinamide, here are some additional strategies to naturally increase testosterone:

• Exercise regularly — A comprehensive meta-analysis published in the Journal of Endocrinological Investigation23 showed that moderate and high-intensity exercises led to significant increases in testosterone in men, with an average increase of 0.74 nmol/L (21.3 ng/dL). The testosterone boost was most evident immediately after exercise and within the first 30 minutes post-exercise, typically returning to baseline after 30 minutes.

I recommend doing moderate exercises such as walking, as they cannot be overdone. A study in the Endocrine journal24 found that men who took fewer than 4,000 steps per day had a higher likelihood of having low testosterone levels. Conversely, men who took 4,000 to 8,000 steps per day had a significantly lower risk of being deficient.

The study also noted that for each additional 1,000 steps taken daily, testosterone levels increased by an average of 7 ng/dL.25 Further supporting the benefits of exercise, a Turkish study26 showed that both continuous and intermittent blood flow restriction (BFR) training, also known as KAATSU in Japan, combined with resistance exercise led to increased testosterone levels in young males.

• Get adequate sun exposure — If you get enough sun exposure, you’ll have a surplus of cellular energy, which increases your testosterone production. It also optimizes your vitamin D level, which supports healthy testosterone production.

A study in the Asian Journal of Andrology showed that lower serum vitamin D levels were associated with reduced total testosterone levels in men. Additionally, higher serum vitamin D levels were positively associated with better seminal parameters, including sperm concentration, motility and morphology.

“[These findings] clearly demonstrate a direct and positive relationship between serum vitamin D level and overall semen quality, male reproductive potential, and testosterone levels,” the authors noted.

However, keep in mind that if your diet is high in seed oils (rich in linoleic acid), you should approach sun exposure with caution. These oils oxidize in sunlight, causing inflammation and DNA damage. This is why you suffer rapid sunburn when your diet is high in seed oils. I recommend avoiding high-intensity sun exposure until you’ve been off these oils for about six months.

At that point, you can gradually increase your sun exposure. Eventually, you will be able to enjoy an hour or more of peak sunlight hours without getting burned.

• Consider herbal remedies — One of the herbs that has gained attention for its ability to boost testosterone levels is fenugreek. A study published in the Journal of Personalized Medicine27 found that fenugreek boosts serum testosterone levels by inhibiting enzymes such as aromatase and 5-alpha-reductase, which are involved in testosterone metabolism. Fenugreek also contains sapogenins and saponins, which have anabolic and androgenic activities.

Another herb that I recommend you consider is ashwagandha. Known for its adaptogenic properties, ashwagandha has been shown to support overall hormonal balance and reduce stress. Research suggests that it increases testosterone levels by decreasing cortisol, a hormone that negatively impacts testosterone production when elevated.28

Breaking — World-Renowned Vaccinologist Publishes Paper Admitting Lack of Vaccine Safety Studies

lack of vaccine safety studies

STORY AT-A-GLANCE

  • Dr. Stanley Plotkin co-authored a paper in the New England Journal of Medicine admitting significant gaps in vaccine safety research, contradicting decades of claims that vaccines are thoroughly studied and safe
  • The paper acknowledges inadequacies in prelicensure clinical trials and reveals a lack of dedicated funding for post-approval vaccine safety studies in the U.S.
  • Over 76% of vaccine-related health outcomes examined by the Institute of Medicine lacked sufficient evidence to determine causality, challenging assertions that vaccine safety is settled science
  • A study by Dr. Paul Thomas found higher rates of various health issues in vaccinated children compared to unvaccinated children, highlighting the need for more independent research
  • Critics argue the authors’ proposed solutions and motivations suggest an attempt to boost public confidence in vaccines rather than critically examine vaccine safety concerns

In a stunning reversal, Dr. Stanley Plotkin, widely regarded as the godfather of modern vaccinology, has co-authored a paper in the New England Journal of Medicine1 (NEJM) acknowledging significant gaps in vaccine safety research and calling for increased funding to address these shortcomings.

This admission comes after decades of the medical establishment insisting that vaccines are among the most thoroughly studied and safest medical interventions. In the paper, titled “Funding Postauthorization Vaccine-Safety Science,”2 they make a series of revelations that validate concerns long raised by vaccine safety advocates. In a commentary, Aaron Siri, managing partner of New York law firm Siri & Glimstad, writes:3

“Wow. After decades of Dr. Stanley Plotkin and his vaccinologist disciples insisting vaccines are the most well studied products on the planet, they just penned an article admitting precisely the opposite.

They just admitted vaccines are not properly studied — neither prelicensure nor post-licensure. They admitted, for example, ‘prelicensure clinical trials have limited sample sizes [and] follow-up durations’ and that ‘there are not resources earmarked for postauthorization safety studies.'”

Key Admissions Shine Light on Lack of Vaccine Safety Studies

One of the most striking admissions in the paper is the acknowledgment that prelicensure clinical trials for vaccines are inadequate for assessing safety. The authors state:4

“Postauthorization studies are needed to fully characterize the safety profile of a new vaccine, since prelicensure clinical trials have limited sample sizes, follow-up durations, and population heterogeneity. It is critical to examine adverse events following immunization (AEFIs) that have not been detected in clinical trials, to ascertain whether they are causally or coincidentally related to vaccination.”

This contradicts previous claims by vaccine proponents that clinical trials provide robust evidence of safety prior to approval. The admission that these trials have limited follow-up periods is particularly notable, as critics have long argued that potential long-term effects of vaccines are not adequately studied before they are approved and recommended for widespread use.

“Let me translate,” Siri writes, “the clinical trials relied upon to license childhood vaccines are useless with regard to safety since they virtually never have a placebo control, typically review safety for days or weeks after injection, and often have far too few participants to measure anything of value.”5

The NEJM paper goes on to reveal that there is currently no dedicated funding stream for post-approval vaccine safety studies in the U.S. The authors write: “Although the ACIP [Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices] acknowledges the need, there are currently no resources earmarked for postauthorization safety studies beyond annual appropriations, which must be approved by Congress each year.”6

This lack of consistent, dedicated funding is one reason why many important safety questions remain unanswered years or even decades after vaccines have been introduced. The authors admit that “Progress in vaccine-safety science has understandably been slow,” citing delayed epidemiological evidence and incomplete understanding of biological mechanisms as key factors.7 But as Siri notes:8

“Shameless to pretend you have not for decades ignored or attacked those calling for these studies while pretending a mountain of such studies showing the foregoing don’t already exist … [and] shameless to pretend parent groups have not been yelling about this [funding] issue for decades only to be ignored and attacked.”

‘Not Enough Evidence’ to Determine if 76% of Vaccine-Related Health Outcomes Are Linked to Shots

In a particularly revealing passage, the paper states, “In 234 reviews of various vaccines and health outcomes conducted from 1991 to 2012, the IOM found inadequate evidence to prove or disprove causation in 179 (76%) of the relationships it explored, illustrating the need for more rigorous science.”9

This statistic is astounding — for over three-quarters of vaccine-related health outcomes examined by the Institute of Medicine (now the National Academy of Medicine), there was not enough evidence to determine whether vaccines were causally linked or not. This flies in the face of repeated assurances that vaccine safety is settled science.

The paper also notes that even for known adverse reactions to vaccines, the biological mechanisms are not understood. This includes serious conditions like Guillain-Barré syndrome associated with influenza vaccines and myocarditis linked to mRNA COVID-19 shots.

Experts have long been calling for unbiased research in understanding the impact of vaccinations on children’s health, but the reality is that public health agencies and vaccine proponents have not been interested in learning the truth. Siri writes:10

“If they are really interested in the truth about what injuries vaccines cause and the rate at which these injuries occur, then they should welcome convening a bipartisan panel which could first review all the very concerning studies and hard data that already exists on this topic (often by scientists not on pharma’s dole) and we could design additional studies together and have them run in the open so everybody has to live with the result.

… Plotkin and company should welcome studies which can show vaccines have not contributed to the rise in chronic childhood disease (many of which are immune mediated diseases) from 12% of children in the early 1980s (when CDC recommended 7 routine childhood injections) to over 50% of children now (when CDC recommends over 90 routine childhood injections).

And I think they do welcome such studies if they can assure that the outcome would show vaccines do not cause these harms. Alas, the reality is that (as they know) studies showing vaccines contribute to this rise already exist. But their goal, in any event, is not to really study safety. Rather it is to prove their prior assumption that vaccines are safe and harms are ‘rare.'”

Plotkin and his co-authors, while acknowledging significant gaps in vaccine safety science, propose increased funding by tapping into the Vaccine Injury Compensation Program (VICP) trust fund. They note that this fund, generated by an excise tax on vaccines, has a surplus of $4.3 billion as of April 2023.11

However, it’s important to note the authors’ stated motivations for proposing these changes. They express concern about “widespread vaccine hesitancy” and argue that slow progress in vaccine safety science has “adversely affected vaccine acceptance.” In other words, their primary goal is increasing public confidence in vaccines — not critically examining safety issues with an open mind.

Failure to Admit Decades of Lies, Gaslighting and Fraud

Siri notes that the admissions in the NEJM paper directly contradict decades of assurances from the medical establishment. He writes:12

“For decades, the medical community insisted vaccines are the most thoroughly studied product ever; for example, Dr. Paul Offit said, ‘I think we should be proud of vaccines as arguably the safest, best tested things we put in our body.'”

But, Siri argues, parents of vaccine-injured children and others who raised concerns about inadequate safety studies were “shunned and attacked by the medical community and health agencies” for years. The paper is a belated acknowledgment of what these advocates have been saying all along, albeit with dubious motives behind it:13

“Plotkin and his disciples realize they can’t cast voodoo on the public. They can’t hide the truth. So, their only option is to try and co-op the truth they have lied about for decades by now admitting that the studies to show vaccines are safe do not exist.

But in making that admission, they conveniently fail to admit that for decades they lied, gaslit, defrauded (and I don’t use that word lightly) the public by claiming that vaccines are probably the most thoroughly safety tested products on the planet and that people should rest assured, no stone on vaccine safety was left unturned.

… Their real agenda is plain, and it is not to study vaccine safety, but rather to confirm that which they already believe. This is crystal clear from the fact that, while their article admits the studies have not been done, they write in the same breath that serious vaccine harms are ‘rare.’ But if the studies have not been done, how do they know that?”

Siri also points out that the authors ignore existing studies that have found evidence of harm from vaccines or their components.14 He argues that truly unbiased research would need to consider this body of evidence rather than starting from the assumption that serious adverse events are rare.

Study Shows Vaccinated Children Have Higher Rates of Disease

A study conducted by Dr. Paul Thomas and James Lyons-Weiler examined health outcomes in vaccinated and unvaccinated children over a 10-year period within a pediatric practice. Dr. Thomas had his medical license suspended due to his advocacy of informed consent for vaccinations.

The research, published in the International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health,15 found that vaccinated children had higher rates of various health issues compared to unvaccinated children. These included:

Asthma Allergies
Eczema Sinusitis
Gastroenteritis Respiratory infections
Middle ear infection Conjunctivitis
Breathing issues Behavioral issues

Notably, ADHD was observed in a small percentage of vaccinated children but not in any unvaccinated children. The study also reported lower rates of autism spectrum disorder and ADHD in the practice compared to national averages. The authors suggested that unvaccinated children in the practice were at least as healthy as, if not healthier than, their vaccinated counterparts.16

The researchers also emphasized the need for more independent studies on this topic, free from potential conflicts of interest with the vaccine industry, to better understand the relationship between vaccination and children’s health outcomes.

Proposed Solutions Raise Questions About True Motives

For years, those expressing concerns about vaccine safety have been dismissed as “anti-science” or accused of endangering public health. The NEJM paper demonstrates that their core critiques — including regarding inadequate safety studies — were well-founded.

The publication of this paper marks a significant shift in the public discourse around vaccine safety. By admitting to major gaps in safety studies and the slow progress of vaccine safety science, Plotkin and his co-authors have validated concerns that were previously dismissed by much of the medical establishment.

However, the proposed solutions and the authors’ stated motivations raise significant questions about whether this represents a genuine shift toward more critical examination of vaccine safety or merely an attempt to boost failing public confidence. Siri continues:17

“After making the a priori conclusion that harms are ‘rare,’ ignoring all the existing studies showing harm, these folk have the audacity to want to raid the federal vaccine injury compensation fund to presumably pay themselves and their compatriots hundreds of millions of dollars to conduct the studies that would, no doubt, seek to confirm their prior conclusion that vaccine harms are ‘rare,’ while ignoring the studies that already show serious harm.”

What is clear is that the oft-repeated claim that vaccines are “the most thoroughly studied medical intervention” can no longer be credibly made. As this paper demonstrates, there is still much to learn about vaccine safety, and acknowledging this fact is an important step toward informed consent and transparent vaccination policies.

Security Expert Gavin de Becker Describes the Gift of Fear

https://articles.mercola.com/sites/articles/archive/2024/07/28/gavin-de-becker-gift-of-fear.aspx

Analysis by Dr. Joseph Mercola     July 28, 2024

STORY AT-A-GLANCE

  • Gavin de Becker is one of the leading security resource experts in the world; his private security firm protects about 70 well-known U.S. families and individuals, including Robert F. Kennedy Jr.
  • In our interview, we discuss the importance of paying attention to your instincts and how to decipher between the two types of fear — true fear and unwarranted fear
  • You should always follow your gut instincts or inner wisdom — your intuition — including true fear telling you to avoid certain people or situations
  • Unwarranted fear is often used as an instrument of control, including in the context of COVID-19, the pandemic and COVID jabs
  • Two antidotes for fear include not watching television news and embracing the principle of subsidiarity, which means living as locally as possible

Gavin de Becker is one of the leading security resource experts in the world. His private security firm, Gavin de Becker and Associates, protects about 70 well-known U.S. families and individuals, including Robert F. Kennedy Jr., who are at risk of assassination or other violence but don’t have Secret Service coverage. However, he also engages in public education to help protect the general population:

“In my public education work, I write books, and that’s to take the strategies that are used to protect senators, congressmen, presidents, governors, and make them available on an accessible level to regular people. The reason being that a public figure in America is attacked about once every five years, but a woman is killed by a husband or boyfriend about once every five hours.

And so, I wanted to take what I had learned and say, ‘Well, what are the ways that there this crossover so that regular people who are subject to victimization and targeting can be safer?’”

In our interview, we discuss the importance of paying attention to your instincts, how to decipher between the two types of fear as well as how fear is used as an instrument of control, including in the context of COVID-19, the pandemic and COVID jabs.

What Triggered the 40% Rise in Deaths Among Young, Healthy Americans?

De Becker wrote the afterword to Ed Dowd’s book, “Cause Unknown,” which discusses the unexplained 40% spike in deaths that occurred among young athletes and other healthy Americans during the third and fourth quarters of 2021. A new edition, covering 2023 deaths, also came out in March 2024.

Media largely blamed the deaths — which they’re now referring to as sudden adult death syndrome, or SADS — on COVID-19, delayed diagnosis, suicide and other factors. But de Becker explains:

“Could it possibly be that a new vaccine product, mass vaccinated by compulsion on the population, could have anything to do with it? If you had 100 kids die, one of the questions you would ask is, what do they have in common? Did they all attend that same event where the air conditioning had a virus in it? Did they all take the same street drug, for example?

Well, in this case, we know that the overwhelming majority of young athletes were vaccinated [for COVID-19] and typically two or three vaccinations. And you can’t exclude that one possible cause when we know for an absolute fact that the mRNA vaccines do cause myocarditis and pericarditis, it’s acknowledged by the CDC.

… Interestingly, [CDC] just did release something for FOIA, a … 140-page report on myocarditis and pericarditis associated with the [COVID-19] vaccines. Every single page redacted, every single page … Why does the CDC ever have secrets? That’s supposed to be the organization that keeps us informed.”

De Becker describes “Cause Unknown” as a book to give to someone you love who needs to be awakened.

“That book is a book you can hand somebody you love who you’ve been unable to reach, and it’s just possible that they might choose not to vaccinate their 14-year-old kid or they might take a different attitude and not take all nine of these injections that are currently recommended by the CDC,” he says. “We are on injection number 10, will be the next one, currently recommended by the CDC for children.”

The Importance of Listening to Your Intuition

De Becker is the author of “The Gift of Fear,” which came out in 1998 and became a No. 1 national bestseller. It’s still the No. 1 bestseller in the world on violence to this day. The book empowers you to embrace your gut instincts or inner wisdom — your intuition. De Becker says:

“The word intuition … the root of it … means to guard and protect. And that’s what it does for us. It is the sense, we could say the sixth sense, that keeps us safe, sort of our nuclear defense system. And, indeed, the gut has lots of neurons — more than a dog has in fact.

And there’s a form of thought, if you will, or connection to the universe that when we just know something without knowing why, when we don’t use logic, we just say, go back to the house, call the house, move away from this person, get out of this underground parking lot, don’t call this person back, don’t date this person, don’t stay late with this manager of this restaurant when he asks you, whatever it may be.

Sometimes, the overwhelming majority of times, people are not sinister toward us and don’t mean us harm, but sometimes they do. And when you get that signal from intuition, it is very, very important to listen to it. And I say that intuition is always correct in at least two ways. One, it’s always about something. And number two, it always has your best interest at heart.

Now, it might be that the information that you deduce from an intuitive feeling of hesitation or fear or curiosity, maybe your interpretation will be wrong, but the fact that you listen and give it a hearing is very important.”

Understanding the Two Types of Fear

There are two distinct types of fear, according to de Becker — true fear and unwarranted fear. True fear is the instinctual response to an immediate threat, characterized by the physiological reactions that prepare your body to either confront or flee from danger.

This type of fear is an intuitive signal that warns you of genuine danger and helps preserve your safety. “What I call true fear is the automatic immediate reaction of the body,” de Becker says. “Something is wrong here. I see a snake or a tiger, right away I have a physical reaction. And that fear should always be listened to.”

Unwarranted fear, on the other hand, encompasses fears that are not directly linked to immediate threats. These can include anxieties and worries about potential future events that may never occur, often leading to unnecessary stress and precautionary behaviors that do not enhance personal safety.

Unwarranted fear can be influenced by societal factors, past experiences and individual perceptions of risk that may not accurately reflect actual danger. De Becker argues that understanding the distinction between these two types of fear is crucial for recognizing when fear is a helpful guide and when it is a hindrance to living a fulfilled life. He explains:

“The unwarranted fear, like the fear of I’m boarding a plane and I think, ‘Oh, this plane’s going to crash, don’t get on it.’ If that’s based on a news story I saw two weeks ago about a plane crash in Brazil, that’s going to be unwarranted fear in the category of anxiety.

But if it’s based on seeing the two pilots stumble out of the bar drunk at the airport, that’s something I might want to listen to. So, you at least ask yourself the question, what’s this about?

Many of us have had that feeling about don’t get on this airplane, for example. And sometimes, it’s hard to act upon, and sometimes it will be unnecessary or misinterpreted. But if you ask yourself if it’s based on memory or imagination, that is not true fear. If it’s based on something in your environment, something you see or smell or hear or feel, that is often true fear and should be listened to.

… Fear does have a gift for us and no animal in nature, even the strongest lion that’s suddenly afraid, will say, ‘Oh, it’s probably nothing.’ But we do that. A woman will be standing at an elevator in a building late at night, an office building and the elevator doors open up and there’s a man in there who causes her fear. We don’t know why only a human being will get into a steel soundproof chamber with someone who causes them fear.

An animal won’t do it. And so, we override, we prosecute our own intuitive feelings. And my life is full, and yours too, of people who said, I knew it, but I still did such and such. I knew I shouldn’t have, but I still hired that person or I knew I had a feeling about that environment and I stayed in it.”

Fear as an Instrument of Control

Fear isn’t only a tool you can harness to keep yourself out of harm’s way. In the interview, we also discussed how fear is used to control and manipulate populations.

“All governments and all leaders have used fear as an instrument of control. And all governments also benefit from division in their countries,” de Becker says. “And the reason that they benefit from division in their countries is … you want people to be energized in their focus on each other and not on those in power.”

De Becker describes some recent historical events that have used fear to gradually take a way freedom and liberty, from Y2K, when it was said all technology would stop functioning when it turned to the year 2000, to COVID-19:

“After 9/11, every big office building suddenly implemented security procedures where you had to show ID to get into the building. Now, we have to remember, you didn’t need ID to fly an airplane into the building. The security response was absolutely unequal to what had actually happened. Airplanes have been flown into buildings.

That’s one kind of thing, intruders trying to get in your building and documenting everybody and passes. And we became a national security state over fear of terrorism.

Then you have killer bees was another thing that was posted on the public. And terrorism is an interesting thing because you start with an enemy like a country. It’s a real country, there it is, it’s Russia, it’s China. Then you go to communists. Communists are the problem. Then you go to communism is the problem.

Now, you’re getting down to a very fine, almost talcum powder, and then you go to terrorists are the problem. Then you go to terrorism, which is an idea, is the problem. And finally, we have landed on the smallest possible particle, the virion, the virus. Virus is the problem.”

In early March 2020, de Becker did a report for clients on the actual risks of COVID and quickly learned the odds of dying from COVID were remote for healthy people. Still, fear was used to implement order and control.

“This was a war by governments on citizens. And it completely shifted the power … such that you could accomplish with words getting billions of people to stay in their homes, getting everybody in America to not go to work. Hundreds of thousands of businesses closed forever,” de Becker says. “… And what happens when you’re afraid is that you’ll take any train that’s leaving the station even if it’s not going where you want to go. And that’s what America did.” He adds:

“The reality is that very, very few people were in danger and it should not have been used to lock down societies and close schools and these things that were tremendously damaging to young people and ultimately to all people. So this was a power move. It will always be something, terrorism, communism, terrorists, Russia. It will always be something.”

Two Strategies to Avoid Fear and Stay Safe

Even if you’re living in a society where fear is being used to manipulate the common narrative and impose control, you can opt out of the madness. One strategy to do so, de Becker says, is to not watch television news, including local news channels, which he says are nothing more than “40 hours a week of original content designed to get your attention with fear.”

Instead, he recommends seeking out your own information, particularly in the form of reading, which gives you knowledge without accompanying alarming images. De Becker explains:

“Reading allows you to decide what happens to your body. Whereas seeing something alarming does not allow you to decide what happens to your body. The body does not understand media. Meaning when I see a terrible thing on the news … I have no way of knowing whether it’s close or far away. I have no way of knowing whether it’s true or not true. And I have no way of knowing whether it’s dated or recent.

But in all cases, just like a movie, it will cause alarm. You’ll recoil from it. When you read something, even something alarming, you can decide how it is brought into your system and how you deal with it. So, I really encourage people to seek their own information when they’re curious and not allow television producers to decide what’s important in your life and much of what’s on the news.”

The second strategy de Becker recommends is embracing the principle of subsidiarity, which suggests matters be handled by the smallest, lowest or least centralized competent authority. In essence, it’s a framework for decentralization that supports the empowerment of small, local units. By living as local as possible, de Becker suggests, we can all embrace autonomy and bow out of the fear around us:

“Another great gift that’s available to us is to work on subsidiarity. Subsidiarity is a word I only learned in the last couple of years, but that is government at the most local level possible and living at the most local level possible. And somebody I read the other day, he called it the great nearby instead of the great beyond.

… I don’t live in a global relationship. I live in with the people in my life, the people in my community, the people I know, and the people I choose … it’s fine to think globally, but remember that every time there’s a global crisis that only lends itself to a global solution, that is power telling you what to do, because you can’t do anything about the global crisis or the global solution.

These are used to control conduct. And so, living as locally as we can is a very wonderful antidote for the fear that is being sprayed at us out of a fire hose 24 hours a day.”

Ivermectin is anti-cancer, anti-viral, anti-parasitic and now neuroprotective

Reproduced from original article:
https://expose-news.com/2024/07/10/ivermectin-is-neuroprotective

By on  July 10, 2024

Ivermectin may not just be the anti-parasitic, anti-cancer, anti-viral repurposed drug we recognise but may have multiple other neuroprotective benefits for humanity in an era where we all may be subjected to neurotoxins – some apparent like vaccines and others invisible like electromagnetic frequencies (“EMFs”).

Ivermectin for Parkinson’s Disease – MS, Stroke, Chronic Pain, Anxiety, Depression, and Schizophrenia? Modulated through P2X4 Receptors

By Dr. Justus R. Hope

We all should know that ivermectin is effective not only against river blindness but can be repurposed against many different types of cancer, even against metastatic disease.

During the 2020 pandemic, ivermectin saved many lives worldwide, and not just in the Intensive Care Unit. Ivermectin has also been used to treat long covid and long vaxxed patients by eminent physicians like Dr. Pierre Kory. Some people, like yours truly take ivermectin weekly for its protective or preventative effects.

When you consider the broad spectrum of its anti-disease activity in combination with its vast safety profile, why would you not?

Ivermectin is not only anti-parasitic, but it is anti-viral, anti-bacterial and anti-cancer. But today we know there is more and much more.

Dr. William Makis recently wrote about how ivermectin has properties of promoting remyelination in demyelinating diseases like multiple sclerosis. However, ivermectin has long been known to have potential effectiveness against motor neuron disorders like ALS or Lou Gehrig’s disease.

Ivermectin has shown such great promise against ALS, a patent application was filed by Belgian scientists in 2007.

“Use of ivermectin and derivates thereof for the treatment of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis’ (Publication No.: WO/2008/034202A3), to cover the use of ivermectin and analogues, to prevent, retard and ameliorate a motor neuron disease such as amyotrophic lateral sclerosis and the associated motor neuron degeneration.”

There is emerging evidence that ivermectin may be effective not just against ALS, but against a variety of neurological disorders including Parkinsonism, a disease that many link with the mRNA injections.

Ivermectin exerts much of its neuroprotective effects by modulating P2X4.

“Because of its action on P2X4 receptors, ivermectin has potential with respect to preventing alcohol use disorders[92] as well as for motor neuron disease.[93]”

As an aside, ivermectin reverses the effect of alcohol on P2X4 and has the potential to reduce cravings and consumption of alcoholic beverages in those afflicted with substance use disorder.

However, back to neuroprotection.

“Ivermectin (IVM), a positive modulator of P2X4Rs, enhanced levodopa (L-DOPA)-induced motor behaviour. Thus, IVM is increasing striatal dopamine release through enhanced cholinergic activity on dopamine terminals.”

If it is neuroprotective, and the evidence is growing that it is, and humanity is being bombarded with various toxins and electromagnetic frequencies each day that compromise our nervous system, perhaps there is reason to consider ivermectin as a neuro-protective repurposed drug worthy of use during this dangerous time in our history.

Ivermectin’s main mechanism of action in neuroprotection seems to be its stabilisation of P2X4 receptors.

“Ivermectin is a positive allosteric modulator of P2X4 that stabilises this subunit in the open state [20], which consequently may also prevent P2X4 internalisation [21, 22].”

Why is the stabilisation of P2X4 so important?

Because overexpression of P2X4 is not only a disease driver in ALS and Parkinsonism, it plays a key role in many other diseases including Multiple Sclerosis, Alzheimer’s Disease, Chronic Neuropathic Pain, Migraine, Epilepsy, Alcohol Use Disorder, Depression, Bipolar, Schizophrenia and Anxiety.

Or to put it more technically, this study explains the pathological role of P2X4:

“In various pathological states, such as trauma, ischemia, chronic pain, neurodegenerative processes and several neuropsychiatric disorders, de novo expression of P2X4 and/or an increase in cell surface P2X4 density has been reported in microglia and/or neurons, thus suggesting possible key and multiple roles of neuronal and microglial P2X4 receptors in the establishment and/or maintenance of these pathologies [25]. Changes in the intracellular expression of P2X4 may also have important consequences in the pathophysiological context.”

The following study on the effect of allosteric modulators on P2X4 – like ivermectin – highlighted its potential effectiveness in neuroprotection.

“Collectively it appears that there is good evidence that positive allosteric modulation of P2X2, P2X4, and P2X7 receptors may be of therapeutic benefit in a number of different conditions summarised in Figure 2. It is also clear that there may be endogenous molecules, particularly in the central nervous system, that could act as positive modulators to enhance the action of the physiological agonist ATP (e.g., neurosteroids on P2X2 and P2X4).”

Ivermectin may not just be the anti-parasitic, anti-cancer, anti-viral repurposed drug we recognise but may have multiple other neuroprotective benefits for humanity in an era where we all may be subjected to neurotoxins – some apparent, and others invisible like EMF.

covid 19 vaccine premature death risk

STORY AT-A-GLANCE

  • Published research suggests that hospitalized patients who received the COVID jab die at a faster rate compared to unjabbed patients, even after adjusting for comorbidities
  • The world is reaching a tipping point, so much so that mainstream media is now turning around its steadfast stance on vaccines. One media outlet ran a front-page story specifically questioning the COVID shots as the source for the excess deaths between 2020 and 2022
  • The recent uptick in “turbo cancers” — cancers that grow at such an alarming pace that patients frequently die before a proper treatment plan was even executed — may be a side effect of the COVID jab
  • Not getting the shot in the first place is the best way to avoid its adverse effects. For those who already been injured, certain protocols such as I-RECOVER from the Front Line COVID-19 Critical Care Alliance may help

Three years since the first mRNA COVID-19 injections were released, the world is finally becoming aware of the dangers of getting them. Thanks to the committed efforts of many individuals fighting for the truth, it seems that — in the words of Dr. Meryl Nass — “the dam has broken.”1

The Effectiveness of the Jabs Is Put Into Question

In a study2 published in Frontiers in Immunology, researchers from the hospital of Ohio State University sought to find out if the COVID injections actually improved the outcomes of hospitalized COVID-19 patients. From March 2020 to November 2022, 152 adult patients were selected — 112 of them tested positive for COVID-19, while the rest didn’t. Furthermore, 23 of those who tested positive for COVID-19 were jabbed while the remaining 89 weren’t.

What they discovered was a startling difference between those who got the shots and those who didn’t. Mortality for the non-infected population was 36% and 27% among non-jabbed and injected groups respectively. But for the infected population, the non-jabbed subset had a mortality rate of 37% while the injected subset had a shocking 70% mortality rate.

Going deeper into the participants’ backgrounds, researchers investigated the possible influence of comorbidities using the Charlson Comorbidity Index (CCI), a widely used analytical tool to determine the survival rate of patients with multiple comorbidities.3 They discovered that the CCI score was significantly higher in jabbed versus unjabbed patients. The researchers noted:4

“Comorbidities and age are the known contributors to increased mortality among COVID-19 patients. Nonetheless, in our study, mortality remained significantly higher in the Vax patients even after adjustment for CCI, suggesting there are other risk factors in vaccinated patients.”

The researchers also investigated the antibodies between the two populations. Interestingly, they discovered that the unjabbed subset had significantly higher antibody titers compared to those who got the shots. This discovery suggests the possible role of natural immunity in the protection against severe COVID-19.

Furthermore, the researchers suggest that getting the shot can lead to immune tolerance — a process that makes your immune system less likely to respond to antigens, such as SARS-CoV-2.5

Mainstream Media Now Reporting Shots Contributed to Excess Deaths

The alarming rise in excess mortality cannot be ignored anymore. It’s reached a tipping point, so much so that mainstream media is even covering this topic. On June 5, 2024, The Telegraph published a front-page headline that doesn’t mince words — “COVID Vaccines May Have Helped Fuel Rise in Excess Deaths.”6

The article discusses a study published in BMJ Public Health on June 3, 2024, which looked at the excess mortality rates across 47 countries in the Western world from 2020 to 2022. To contextualize the findings, here’s the definition of excess mortality, according to the researchers:7

“Excess mortality is assessed as the deviation between the reported number of deaths in a country during a certain week or month in 2020 until 2022 and the expected or projected number of deaths in a country for that period under normal conditions.”

The researchers analyzed the records found in the “Our World in Data.” It’s an open-access database, which includes reports from the World Mortality Dataset and the Human Mortality Database.8 According to their findings, 87% of the countries included in the study reported a total excess mortality rate of 1,033,122 deaths during 2020.9

In 2021, that figure jumped to 1,256,942 excess deaths. This is an eye-opener, since this was the year in which lockdowns were implemented and the newly released mRNA shots were promoted to ostensibly contain the spread of the pandemic. As you can see, the number of excess deaths is staggering — yet this is not the only study that highlighted this issue.10

In another study, this time published in BMC Public Health, Norwegian researchers noted that there was an increase of excess mortality in Norway during 2020 to 2022. While it’s easy to assume that COVID-19 was the top culprit, it wasn’t:11

“There was considerable excess non-COVID-19 mortality in Norway from March 2020 until December 2022, mainly due to excess cardiovascular deaths. For respiratory diseases and dementia, mortality was lower than predicted.”

Were the COVID shots responsible for this increase in excess mortality? While the researchers didn’t specify this as the reason, this line of thought was suggested. According to their findings, “There is a temporal concordance between increasing vaccine coverage and increasing excess mortality.”

New COVID Shots Are Still Approved Despite Condemning Evidence

In a report by SOMO, vaccine manufacturers such as Pfizer, BioNTech, Moderna and Sinovac collectively made a staggering $90 billion in profit, and that’s just between 2021 and 2022. How much more will they make as more COVID-19 variants emerge? Clearly, the answer is “never enough,” as the gravy train is too profitable.

In a report12 by The Defender, the JN.1 variant is the most dominant strain in 2024, and the U.S. Food and Drug Administration’s (FDA) vaccine advisory committee unanimously voted to include it in the vaccine composition for 2024 to 2025. The updated “vaccine” will also target subvariants KP.2 and KP.3.13 Unsurprisingly, when the vote was announced, shares of Novavax, a biotechnology company that manufactures vaccines, increased by 11%.14

Why is Big Pharma still pushing to manufacture these shots despite the glaring evidence of harm? The only answer that makes sense is the desire for profit — even at the cost of human lives. According to cancer researcher Dr. William Makis, the science isn’t at the center anymore:15

“Unfortunately, the entire LNP/mRNA Vaccine field is a fraud. It’s a failed technology with an unacceptably terrible side effect profile. The entire field now depends on the suppression of COVID-19 mRNA Vaccine injuries and deaths, which are now in the millions (5.3 million in WHO VigiAccess alone), so we are no longer dealing with scientists but con artists …

They are trying to find ‘novel’ ways to market a failed technology platform and sneak failed vaccine products onto the market. The Moderna HIV mRNA Vaccine is such a product … And yes, they are moving forward, despite 20% of HIV mRNA Vaccine Victims developing skin rashes in Phase I trials. Moderna will repeat the Phase I trials with a slightly lower dose. The poisonings will continue until vaccine injuries improve.”

The COVID-19 Jabs Leave ‘Turbo Cancers’ in Their Wake

Based on mounting evidence, it seems that the recent uptick in “turbo cancers”16 may be a side effect of getting the jab. For those unfamiliar, oncologists coined this term to describe cancers that grow at such an alarming pace that patients frequently die before a proper treatment plan can even be executed.

In one example,17 described by board-certified internist and cardiologist Dr. Peter McCullough, a 56-year-old man developed basaloid carcinoma shortly after he received an mRNA COVID-19 shot. The patient experienced symptoms just four days after getting the jab, noting similarities to Bell’s palsy and head pain. Shortly thereafter, a tumor developed on his face.

According to Dr. Makis,18 that kind of aggressiveness typically takes a few months to a couple of years. But in this case, it took only four days. The study notes:19

“We place this within the context of multiple immune impairments potentially related to the mRNA injections that would be expected to potentiate more aggressive presentation and progression of cancer.

The type of malignancy we describe suggests a population risk for occurrence of a large variety of relatively common basaloid phenotype cancer cells, which may have the potential for metastatic disease.”

In another report, published in Frontiers in Medicine, researchers found a rapid progression of angioimmunoblastic T-cell lymphoma (AITL) — a rare type of non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) — after receiving a COVID-19 booster shot. AITL is a cancer affecting the lymph system, primarily involving T-cells, a type of white blood cell that plays a crucial role in the immune system:20

“Such a rapid evolution would be highly unexpected in the natural course in the disease. Since mRNA vaccination is known to induce enlargement and hypermetabolic activity of draining lymph nodes, it is reasonable to postulate that it was the trigger of the changes observed.

Indeed, the increase in size and metabolic activity was higher in axillary lymph nodes draining the site of vaccine injection as compared to their contralateral counterparts. However, pre-existing lymphomatous nodes were also clearly enhanced as compared to the first test. Moreover, new hypermetabolic lesions most likely of lymphomatous nature clearly appeared at distance of the injection site.”

How Turbo Cancers Can Possibly Develop

In a Highwire interview21 with Del Bigtree, Dr. Makis describes several possible mechanisms that can lead to cancer in susceptible individuals. The primary one is the modification of the mRNA used. The COVID shots actually don’t have the identical mRNA found in the SARS-CoV-2 virus.

Instead, the mRNA has been manipulated through “codon optimization,” a process where a genetic code is inserted into the spike protein, creating a rigid “skeleton.”22 The reason codon optimization was used is because it’s required for clinical trials and subsequent mass manufacturing. However, there’s a downside to this, as noted by researchers:23

“Unfortunately, some of the potential problems associated with codon optimization, which can affect protein function and increase immunogenicity, may not be seen until the drug is in late-stage clinical trials, or after the drug is on the market.”

Vaccine manufacturers bypassed this problem by making substitutions in the genetic instructions. Certain nucleotides (three nucleotides make up a codon) are swapped out, but still end up with the same protein. However, the enhanced efficiency comes at a price, which millions of people have already paid.

Injured by the Jab? These Resources Can Help

The best way to avoid exposing yourself to COVID jab-related injuries is by refusing the shot in the first place. But if you or a loved one already got it, what can you do?

The first step I recommend you take is seeking out expert advice. You can start by contacting the Front Line COVID-19 Critical Care Alliance (FLCCC). I believe that this organization has one of the best treatment protocols for those who were injured by the shot. The protocol’s name is I-RECOVER, which can be downloaded from covid19criticalcare.com.

The World Health Council has also published a database of remedies that can help inhibit and eliminate spike proteins, which most experts agree is the primary culprit of the injuries. I summarize the recommendations in my article, “World Council for Health Reveals Spike Protein Detox.”

Autopsies Link 73.9% of Post-Jab Deaths to the Shot


Reproduced from original article:
https://articles.mercola.com/sites/articles/archive/2024/07/05/post-covid-19-vaccination-deaths.aspx

Analysis by Dr. Joseph Mercola     July 05, 2024

STORY AT-A-GLANCE

  • A peer-reviewed study in Forensic Science International found that 73.9% of post-COVID-19 vaccination deaths were directly caused by or significantly contributed to by the injections
  • The study, initially censored by The Lancet, analyzed 325 autopsy cases and found cardiovascular issues were the most common cause of death, followed by blood and respiratory problems
  • Researchers suggest the spike protein in COVID-19 vaccines may be responsible for side effects, potentially causing inflammation and clotting in various tissues and organs
  • Another study in South Korea found increased incidences of mild cognitive impairment and Alzheimer’s disease within three months of COVID-19 vaccination, particularly with mRNA vaccines
  • The article mentions censorship of research critical of COVID-19 vaccines and suggests seeking help from organizations like FLCCC for those experiencing post-vaccination injuries

A bombshell study that The Lancet1 pulled within 24 hours is finally seeing the light of day. Now published in the peer-reviewed Forensic Science International journal, the systematic review of autopsy findings in deaths after COVID-19 shots revealed 73.9% “were directly due to or significantly contributed to” by the injections.2 Canadian oncologist and cancer researcher Dr. William Makis posted on X:3

“This is a victory of SCIENCE over CENSORSHIP!! Incredible perseverance by first author Nicolas Hulscher who didn’t give up after LANCET pulled our paper within 24 hours after 100,000s of downloads for no legitimate reason. Big pharma put the squeeze on @TheLancet but has failed to stop us.

Our paper was delayed by one year, and those actions of CENSORSHIP and CANCELLATION led to many deaths that could have been prevented. This paper could be a game changer.”

High Likelihood of ‘Causal Link’ Between COVID-19 Shots and Death

Researchers including Makis, cardiologist, internist and epidemiologist Dr. Peter McCullough and Nicolas Hulscher, an epidemiologist with the University of Michigan School of Public Health, searched for all published autopsy and necropsy reports relating to COVID-19 shots through May 18, 2023.

Their systematic review included 44 papers with 325 autopsy cases and one necropsy case, which is an autopsy performed on an animal. The average age of the people in these reports was 70.4 years. Most often, the cardiovascular system was involved in the death, followed by hematological issues, or blood problems, and respiratory issues. In 21 of the cases, three or more organ systems were involved.

The mean time from vaccination to death was 14.3 days, but most deaths occurred within a week of the last shot. Three doctors who are experts in figuring out causes of death and studying diseases looked at each case separately.

They carefully examined all the information available for each person who died and concluded that in 73.9% of the cases, COVID-19 shots either directly caused or played a significant role in the person’s death. Among them, the primary causes of death were:4

Sudden cardiac death (35%) Pulmonary embolism (12.5%)
Myocardial infarction (12%) Vaccine-induced immune thrombotic thrombocytopenia (VITT) (7.9%)
Myocarditis (7.1%) Multisystem inflammatory syndrome (4.6%)
Cerebral hemorrhage (3.8%)

“The consistency seen among cases in this review with known COVID-19 vaccine mechanisms of injury and death, coupled with autopsy confirmation by physician adjudication, suggests there is a high likelihood of a causal link between COVID-19 vaccines and death,” the researchers concluded.5

What Was The Lancet Trying to Hide? ‘Lots and Lots of Vaccine Deaths’

In the video above from The Jimmy Dore Show, they discuss why The Lancet almost immediately pulled the concerning study.6 The journal stated, “This preprint has been removed by Preprints with The Lancet because the study’s conclusions are not supported by the study methodology. Preprints with The Lancet reserves the right to remove a paper that has been posted if we determine that it has violated our screening criteria.”7 As noted by The Daily Sceptic on July 6, 2023:8

“Without further detail from the Preprints with the Lancet staff who removed the paper it is hard to know what substance the claim that the conclusions are not supported by the methodology really has. A number of the authors of the paper are at the top of their fields so it is hard to imagine that the methodology of their review was really so poor that it warranted removal at initial screening rather than being subject to full critical appraisal.

It smacks instead of raw censorship of a paper that failed to toe the official line. Keep in mind that the CDC has not yet acknowledged a single death being caused by the COVID mRNA vaccines. Autopsy evidence demonstrating otherwise is clearly not what the U.S. public health establishment wants to hear.”

The censored paper has now been peer-reviewed, however, and its findings add further support to those who have been sounding the alarm about COVID-19 shot dangers all along. The researchers explain, “We found by independent adjudication that 73.9% of deaths were attributable to fatal COVID-19 vaccine injury syndromes,” adding:9

“These results corroborate known COVID-19 vaccine-induced syndromes and show significant, temporal associations between COVID-19 vaccination and death involving multiple organ systems, with a predominant implication of the cardiovascular and hematological systems.

Criteria of causality from an epidemiological perspective have been met including biological plausibility, temporal association, internal and external validity, coherence, analogy, and reproducibility with each successive case report of death after COVID-19 vaccination combined with population-based studies describing mortality among the vaccinated.

Our findings amplify concerns regarding COVID-19 vaccine adverse events and their mechanisms.”

To answer the question of why The Lancet pulled the paper so quickly, The Vigilant Fox said:10

“Another COVID ‘conspiracy theory’ becomes reality as a bombshell study CENSORED by The Lancet has now been peer-reviewed. What were they trying to hide, you ask? Lots and lots of vaccine deaths.”

What Makes COVID-19 Shots So Deadly?

Most of the COVID-19 injections are linked to deaths, which suggests they share a common factor causing side effects, most likely the spike protein, the study suggests.11

Spike proteins can circulate in your body after infection or injection, causing damage to cells, tissues and organs. “Spike protein is a deadly protein,” McCullough said.12 It may cause inflammation and clotting in any tissue in which it accumulates.13 In fact, some suggest that spike protein in COVID-19 shots was designed to cause severe disease.

In a study published in the journal Science, by researchers with the National Institutes of Health’s National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, it’s revealed that the S-2P spike protein used in several COVID-19 shots binds more strongly to the ACE2 receptors in the heart, lungs, kidneys and endothelial cells of blood vessels in the body compared to the spike protein of the original SARS-CoV-2 virus.14

“Given the average time (14.3 days) in which cases died after vaccination, a temporal association between COVID-19 vaccination and death among most cases is further supported by the finding that SARS-CoV-2 Spike mRNA vaccine sequences can circulate in the blood for at least 28 days after vaccination,” the featured study notes.15

Further, it’s been revealed that the spike protein on its own is enough to cause inflammation and damage to the vascular system, even independent of a virus.16 The spike protein is known to have deleterious effects on the heart, and COVID-19 vaccine-induced myocarditis and heart attack are well-described in peer-reviewed studies.17 Multisystem Inflammatory Syndrome (MIS) has also been reported after COVID-19 shots in both adults and children.

“A possible mechanism by which MIS occurs after vaccination could be the systemic distribution of the LNPs [lipid nanoparticles] containing mRNA after vaccine administration and the consequent systemic Spike protein expression and circulation resulting in system-wide inflammation,” the researchers explain.18 Given the study findings, they suggest that anyone who receives a COVID-19 shot should be monitored for at least one year:19

“The implications of our study apply to cases of unanticipated death without antecedent illness among COVID-19 vaccine recipients. We can infer that in such cases, death may have been caused by COVID-19 vaccination.

Further urgent investigation is required to build upon our results and further elucidate the pathophysiologic mechanisms of death with the goal of risk stratification and avoidance of death for the large numbers of individuals who have taken or will receive one or more COVID-19 vaccines in the future.

Autopsies should be performed on all diseased individuals that have received one or more COVID-19 vaccines. Clinical monitoring of COVID-19 vaccine recipients is indicated for a period of at least one year after vaccination to ensure the absence of serious adverse events that may lead to death.”

Potential Link Between COVID-19 Injections and Alzheimer’s Disease

In addition to deaths related to the cardiovascular system, McCullough and colleagues found COVID-19 shot-related deaths also involved the hematological system, pulmonary embolism and the respiratory system, while adverse events related to the gastrointestinal, immunological and neurological systems have also been reported after COVID-19 shots.20

A separate study investigated the association between COVID-19 shots and the onset of Alzheimer’s Disease and mild cognitive impairment (MCI).21 The study involved 558,017 individuals in Seoul, South Korea, who were divided into two groups — those who received a COVID-19 shot and those who did not.

The findings showed an increased incidence of MCI and Alzheimer’s in those who received a COVID-19 injection, particularly in those who received mRNA shots, within three months post-injection. The mRNA vaccine group exhibited a significantly higher incidence of Alzheimer’s compared to the unvaccinated group.

The study suggests a potential link between COVID-19 shots, particularly mRNA injections, and increased incidences of Alzheimer’s disease and MCI. “This underscores the need for further research to elucidate the relationship between vaccine-induced immune responses and neurodegenerative processes, advocating for continuous monitoring and investigation into the vaccines’ long-term neurological impacts,” the researchers stated.

Rampant Censorship Downplays the Truth About COVID-19 Shot Dangers

In another example of the rampant censorship surrounding COVID-19 adverse effects, a now-retracted narrative review published in the journal Cureus called for a global moratorium on mRNA COVID-19 shots.22 The review cited significant increases in serious adverse events among those who received the injections, along with an “unacceptably high harm-to-reward ratio.”23

When factoring in absolute risk and the “number needed to vaccinate” (NNV), a metric used to quantify how many people need to be vaccinated to prevent one additional case of a specific disease, the review found “for every life saved, there were nearly 14 times more deaths caused by the modified mRNA injections.”24

As for the paper’s retraction, McCullough, one of the paper’s authors, called it a “stunning act of scientific censorship.”25 In addition to calling for a global moratorium on mRNA COVID-19 shots, the authors of the paper said the shots should be immediately removed from the childhood vaccine schedule, while boosters should also be suspended.

“It is unethical and unconscionable to administer an experimental vaccine to a child who has a near-zero risk of dying from COVID-19 but a well-established 2.2% risk of permanent heart damage based on the best prospective data available,” the paper notes.26

The moratorium is warranted based on the shots’ risks of serious adverse events, the mechanisms behind those adverse events, mortality data and issues with inefficacy, vaccine control and processing.27 As with the featured Lancet study, the Cureus study was already incredibly popular, with more than 330,000 views/reads/downloads in one month compared to the average Cureus paper, which gets only 2,700 in an entire year.28

With each unwarranted retraction, more people will begin to ask questions about why this crucial information is continuing to be censored and withheld from the public instead of openly debated and presented to the public.

Injured by a COVID-19 Shot? Here’s Help

If you’ve had a COVID-19 shot and developed any unusual symptoms, seek out help from an expert. The Front Line COVID-19 Critical Care Alliance (FLCCC) has a treatment protocol for post-jab injuries. It’s called I-RECOVER and can be downloaded from covid19criticalcare.com.29

Dr. Pierre Kory, who cofounded the FLCCC, has transitioned to treating the vaccine injured more or less exclusively. For more information, visit DrPierreKory.com. McCullough is also investigating additional post-jab treatments, which you can find on PeterMcCulloughMD.com.

STORY AT-A-GLANCE

  • A preprint study led by Dr. Peter McCullough suggests using siRNA and RIBOTACs to target and degrade residual mRNA from COVID-19 vaccines, potentially mitigating long-term health risks associated with persistent spike protein production
  • COVID-19 mRNA vaccines have shown wider distribution in the body than initially claimed, raising concerns about unintended effects and the need for an “off switch” to stop ongoing spike protein production
  • The study proposes using siRNA and RIBOTACs as potential methods to bind to and degrade vaccine mRNA in cells, offering a targeted approach to prevent adverse events from mRNA-based therapies
  • “Long vax” symptoms, similar to long COVID, have been reported following vaccination, including fatigue, brain fog, numbness, and cardiovascular issues, highlighting the need for effective treatments for those affected
  • Another study led by McCullough found a significant increase in cerebral thromboembolism risk associated with COVID-19 vaccines compared to other vaccines, leading to calls for a moratorium on their use

A preprint study revealed a potential way to clear out mRNA from COVID-19 shots. The research, led by cardiologist, internist and epidemiologist Dr. Peter McCullough, offers hope for those who are suffering from health damage caused by COVID-19 injections.

“As the world is waking up to nearly two thirds with potential future disease and disability from the long-lasting mRNA coding for the dangerous Wuhan spike protein, the search is on for ways to stop this molecular monster from doing more damage,” McCullough writes.1

The technique involves the use of small interfering RNA (siRNA) and ribonuclease targeting chimeras (RIBOTACs) to “target, inactivate, and degrade residual and persistent vaccine mRNA” and in so doing, help prevent uncontrolled spike protein production while reducing toxicity.2

Technique May Help Mitigate Damage Triggered by mRNA COVID Shots

Pfizer-BioNTech and Moderna studies show that mRNA from COVID-19 shots, which is carried by tiny particles called nanolipids, does not stay only in the shoulder muscle or nearby lymph nodes as initially claimed. Instead, the mRNA can be found in various tissues in the body, raising safety concerns.

There is a worry that this mRNA might integrate into the body’s DNA or cause unintended spike protein production, which could be harmful. To address these concerns, scientists are looking at ways to eliminate this leftover mRNA to stop the production of the spike protein, which the COVID-19 shot mRNA helps produce.

“Without any way to turn off the messenger RNA, we think every single messenger RNA shot, because it’s been made synthetic and resistant to human breakdown, is going to make people progressively sick,” McCullough says. “We have to find a way to get this out of the body … We’re gonna need an off switch for this.”3

McCullough’s study highlights “emerging concerns regarding the wide systemic biodistribution of these mRNA vaccines leading to prolonged inflammatory responses and other safety concerns.”4 According to the scientists, “The stability of mRNA vaccines, their pervasive distribution, and the longevity of the encapsulated mRNA along with unlimited production of the damaging and potentially lethal Spike (S) protein call for strategies to mitigate potential adverse effects.”5

The study reviews a strategy involving siRNA and RIBOTACs. “It may seem unfathomable for doctors to inject more RNA to deactivate Pfizer and Moderna synthetic mRNA that has accumulated in the body after multiple injections,” McCullough says. “However, siRNA used today in my practice (patisiran, inclisiran) appears to be safe and well-tolerated only notable for injection site reactions.”6

siRNA and RIBOTACs May Act as Off Switch for COVID mRNA Shots

siRNA is a type of RNA molecule that can specifically bind to and degrade messenger RNA (mRNA) in cells. This process prevents the mRNA from being used to produce proteins. siRNA works by entering the cell and becoming part of a complex called the RNA-induced silencing complex (RISC).

Within RISC, the siRNA pairs with its matching mRNA sequence and guides the complex to cut and destroy the target mRNA, stopping protein production. siRNA is used in research and therapeutic applications to silence specific genes, helping to study gene function and treat diseases caused by overactive or harmful genes.

RIBOTACs, meanwhile, are synthetic molecules designed to bind to specific RNA molecules and recruit natural cellular enzymes, called ribonucleases, to degrade the target RNA. RIBOTACs enter the cell and attach to both the target RNA and the ribonuclease enzyme. This binding brings the enzyme into close proximity with the target RNA, allowing the enzyme to cut and degrade the RNA.

RIBOTACs are used to specifically target and destroy RNA molecules that are involved in disease processes, providing a precise way to reduce the levels of harmful proteins produced by these RNAs. According to the study, “The targeted nature of siRNA and RIBOTACs allows for precise intervention, offering a path to prevent and mitigate adverse events of mRNA-based therapies.”7

The study described two methods to target and degrade residual and persistent COVID-19 shot mRNA, including siRNA Therapy (A) and RIBOTAC neutralization (B):8

“A: siRNA targeted against COVID-19 vaccine mRNA enters the vaccinated cell via LNPs [lipid nanoparticles], where it incorporates into the RISC. The siRNA in RISC binds to the complementary sequence of the target vaccine mRNA and cleaves it, thus suppressing spike protein production.

B: RIBOTACs targeted against COVID-19 vaccine mRNA enter the vaccinated cell via LNPs, where they bind to both the target vaccine mRNA and endogenous RNase. This results in RNase-mediated vaccine mRNA degradation and the suppression of spike protein production.”

“We use these small interfering RNAs already in practice,” McCullough said. “There’s one called Patisiran, the other one, Inclisiran. I use them in my practice. They only last in the body a few days. They bind up messenger RNA to inactivate it … We hope that some molecular technology companies can pick this up and consider this.”9

COVID-19 Shots Trigger Debilitating Adverse Events and ‘Long Vax’

An effective “off switch” could provide a lifeline for those suffering debilitating effects. Significant serious adverse events have occurred among many who received mRNA COVID-19 injections, which have also been said to have an “unacceptably high harm-to-reward ratio.”10

For every 1 million shots, an estimated 1,010 to 1,510 serious adverse reactions, such as death, life-threatening conditions, hospitalization or significant disability, may occur.11 When compared to the flu shot, data from the European Medicines Agency Eurovigilance Database shows that COVID-19 shots cause more:12,13

Allergic reactions Arrhythmia
General cardiovascular events Coagulation
Hemorrhages Gastrointestinal, ocular and sexual organ reactions
Thrombosis

Meanwhile, “long vax,” which describes an array of symptoms caused by COVID-19 shots, is finally getting some much-deserved recognition.

As reported by Science magazine in 2022, “In rare cases, coronavirus vaccines may cause long COVID-like symptoms,”14 which can include (but is not limited to) brain fog, memory problems, headaches, blurred vision, loss of smell, nerve pain, heart rate fluctuations, dramatic blood pressure swings and muscle weakness. The feeling of “internal electric shocks” are also reported.

Also in 2022, a preprint study from the U.S. National Institutes of Health reported new neuropathic symptoms that began in 23 adults within one month of receiving a COVID-19 shot.15 All of the patients felt severe tingling or numbness in their faces or limbs, and 61% also experienced dizziness when standing up, intolerance to heat and heart palpitations.

A study by Yale scientists also shed light on long vax, which they described as chronic post-vaccination syndrome, or PVS.16 In a study of 241 people who reported PVS after an mRNA COVID-19 shot, the median time from the jab to the onset of symptoms was three days, with symptoms continuing for 595 days. The five most common symptoms included:17

  • Exercise intolerance (71%)
  • Excessive fatigue (69%)
  • Numbness (63%)
  • Brain fog (63%)
  • Neuropathy (63%)

In the week before the survey was completed, patients reported a range of additional symptoms highlighting the mental toll the condition takes. The symptoms required a median of 20 interventions for treatment and included:18

Feeling unease (93%) Fearfulness (82%)
Overwhelmed by worries (81%) Feelings of helplessness (80%)
Anxiety (76%) Depression (76%)
Hopelessness (72%) Worthlessness (49%)

COVID mRNA Shots Linked to 111,795% Increase in Brain Clots

Adding to the urgency in uncovering a strategy to help those who have received COVID shots, another study led by McCullough revealed they’re linked to a 111,795% increase in brain clots known as cerebral thromboembolism.19

Cerebral thromboembolism, a known side effect of COVID-19 shots, is a medical condition where a blood clot (thrombus) forms in a blood vessel, travels through the bloodstream and becomes lodged in an artery supplying blood to the brain. This blockage prevents blood flow to parts of the brain, potentially leading to a stroke.

For the study, researchers used data from the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and the U.S. Food and Drug Administration’s (FDA) Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS) covering January 1, 1990 to December 31, 2023. They compared cerebral thromboembolism cases reported after COVID-19 shots to those reported after flu shots and other vaccines.

The study found the risk of cerebral thromboembolism after COVID-19 vaccines is significantly higher compared to flu vaccines and all other vaccines.20 While there were 52 reports of cerebral thromboembolism associated with influenza vaccines, there were 5,137 cases linked to COVID-19 shots.21

The staggering increase led the researchers to call for “an immediate global moratorium on the use of COVID-19 vaccines,” particularly in women of reproductive age. McCullough wrote:22

“This paper did not capture the level of permanent neurologic devastation and disability suffered by these patients. I can tell you that the rates must be very high given the extensive nature of the blood clots reported. These data among others strongly support removing all COVID-19 vaccines and boosters from the market. No one should be put at risk for a serious stroke with any vaccine.”

Help for Those Injured by an mRNA COVID

It’s important to be wary of any new mRNA shots that come on the market and carefully weigh if the risks outweigh the reported benefits before getting one. However, if you’ve already had one or more COVID-19 shots, there are steps you can take to repair from the assault on your system.

The more mRNA shots you take, the greater the immune system damage. So, the first step is to avoid getting anymore mRNA jabs. Next, if you’ve developed any unusual symptoms, seek out help from an expert. The Front Line COVID-19 Critical Care Alliance (FLCCC) has a treatment protocol for post-jab injuries. It’s called I-RECOVER and can be downloaded from covid19criticalcare.com.23

Dr. Pierre Kory, who cofounded the FLCCC, has transitioned to treating the vaccine injured more or less exclusively. For more information, visit DrPierreKory.com. McCullough is also investigating additional post-jab treatments, which you can find on PeterMcCulloughMD.com. Finally, if you’re suffering from long vax, be sure to review my strategies for boosting mitochondrial health to allow your body to heal.

STORY AT-A-GLANCE

  • “Playing God: An Investigation into Medical Democide in the UK” is a documentary film investigating allegations of harmful medical practices and policies in the U.K. health care system
  • The film critically examines the unethical and potentially deadly use of medical protocols and medications in the National Health Service (NHS), suggesting they have led to patient harm and deaths under the guise of government policies
  • The documentary features testimonials from families affected by these dangerous practices, as well as analyses from medical professionals and legal experts
  • “Medical democide,” — death or harm caused by government policies or health care practices — appears widespread in the NHS
  • The film suggests that systemic issues deeply ingrained in NHS protocols hinder the delivery of humane care, from birth to the end of life

“Playing God: An Investigation into Medical Democide in the UK” is a documentary film that explores allegations of harmful medical practices and policies in the U.K. health care system.

Directed by Ash Mahmood and Naeem Mahmood, and co-produced by Phil Graham and investigative journalist Jacqui Deevoy, the film critically examines the unethical and potentially deadly use of medical protocols and medications in the National Health Service (NHS), suggesting they have led to patient harm and deaths under the guise of government policies.

The documentary features testimonials from families affected by these dangerous practices, as well as analyses from medical professionals and legal experts, aiming to shed light on “medical democide,” — death or harm caused by government policies or health care practices. The film suggests that systemic issues deeply ingrained in the NHS hinder the delivery of humane care, from birth to the end of life.

NHS Has Become a ‘Killing Machine’

“In the last 30 years,” says Kevin Corbett, Ph.D., in the film, “you can see good evidence that the National Health Service has become the killing machine.”1 He explains:2

“Toward the end of the 1980s, in medical, nursing and health care practice, the development of evidence-based medicine was seen as very positive. And evidence-based medicine sounded really good, because the idea was doctors, nurses and health care practitioners are not basing their clinical practice on much evidence or the best evidence or any evidence.

So, hey, let’s make some evidence, let’s look at what really works and apply it. It sounds so believable and so benign.

And, hey, presto, by the 1990s, doctors, nurses and all health care professionals practice was being geared by protocols and shaped by protocols. And once those protocols were instituted, it became very difficult for doctors, nurses and other health care professionals to use their own clinical acumen with patients.

The had to follow protocols, and in those protocols you’ve seen the administration of drugs like midazolam in dosages that are potentially lethal.”

Nurse Elena Vlaica details how her husband, Stuart, was “euthanized in hospital in November 2021” after going in for shortness of breath and a possible chest infection. She believes he was punished for not receiving a COVID-19 shot and put on an end-of-life care pathway that led to his death, instead of being provided with proper medical care.

In addition to withdrawing his blood pressure medications and antidepressants, Stuart was denied food or water for 11 days.3 Vlaica told Magzter:4

“I found out later, he’d had a DNR [do not resuscitate order] put on him. The reason given for that in his notes, which I managed to get with the help of a solicitor, was that he possibly had COVID and was unvaccinated. He’d also been put on midazolam and morphine without either of our consent.

I only discovered this later, when I saw his notes, and also found out that he’d been put on ‘fast-track end of life care,’ which was introduced at the start of the pandemic and allowed a consultant to decide whether a patient lives or dies.”

Because of COVID-19 restrictions, Vlaica wasn’t allowed to visit and didn’t know Stuart was put on the end-of-life care pathway. She later learned that he had tried to escape from the hospital four times, but medics pinned him down and sedated him using midazolam, a sedative drug often used in the U.S. for execution via lethal injection.5 Because it doesn’t relieve pain, an opioid such as morphine is usually added in. Deevoy wrote:6

“The day of Stuart’s death is the stuff of horror movies. On November 6, 2021 at 1 p.m., Elena had a call from the hospital to let her know that her Stuart was dying. When she arrived, Elena could see he was heavily sedated. ‘He looked like he was in a coma. I know now he was in a midazolam coma. I was kissing him and I could see his saturation levels improving.

He knew I was there and I knew he was fighting for his life. When the junior doctor saw me looking at the monitor, she switched it off. At that moment a nurse appeared with five 10ml syringes on a blue tray. She pushed two of them into Stuart’s canula, he took three breaths, then died in my arms. I shouted, ‘She’s killed him!’ then broke down. I don’t remember getting home that night.’”

Man Who Died From COVID-19 Shot Was Told He Had a Migraine

Another tragic story from the documentary is told by Vikki Spit, whose partner Zion died from a brain bleed caused by the AstraZeneca COVID-19 shot. His symptoms — an excruciating headache — started just eight days after he received the shot. After calling paramedics and being told Zion had a migraine, his condition worsened.

Spit called paramedics again two days later when Zion couldn’t get out of bed and began slurring his speech. He suffered a seizure and, at the hospital, was found to have a brain injury caused by a hemorrhage due to the COVID-19 shot.

“The neurosurgeon rang me and said they’d had to remove a massive piece of skull because the pressure on his brain was enormous,” Spit said. “They said they’d never seen anything like it — they didn’t expect him to wake up, and if he did he’d be in a vegetative state. And they said they thought it was caused by the AstraZeneca vaccine … If they had recognized what it was when I called them the first time, he would still be alive.”7

Medical Mistakes, Coverups Resulted in Avoidable Deaths

Other stories, including from Anne and Graeme Dixon, recount serious medical mistakes and coverups by NHS staff, including the death of Elizabeth Dixon at just 11 months old. In addition to misdiagnosing and managing Elizabeth’s high blood pressure, which led to permanent brain damage, she died from asphyxiation after her tracheostomy tube wasn’t cleared properly.8 Speaking to The Independent, Anne Dixon said:9

“Along our 19-year journey to find the truth, we have been failed by every agency possible. We have had to spend many years working tirelessly ourselves to gather and piece together the evidence of what happened to Lizzie and the 19-year cover-up that ensued. It is inconceivable to us that not one of these earlier agencies knew, or suspected, the truth. The evidence was there. We have been treated appallingly.”

Another mother, Joan Bye, whose daughter Helenor died after being treated for misdiagnosed epilepsy, stated, “She suffered much, she died needlessly, she could have been saved, but she was murdered by the state.”10

The Liverpool Care Pathway Is a ‘Pathway to Euthanasia’

Anna De Buisseret, a UK lawyer who used to work for Pfizer as an external management consultant, said, “The moment they go into hospital they’re being put on to these hospital protocols, which dictate which drugs, which treatment, they’re going to receive. And it’s a one-size-fits-all blanket policy.”11

It’s also a pathway to euthanasia for many. Deevoy previously ousted the scandal in another documentary film, “A Good Death? The Midazolam Murders.” She realized something was wrong when a DNR was put on her dad while he was in a care home.

“So, I spoke to a whistleblower doctor,” Deevoy said. “She told me they were being put on people who were over 60 — they were classed as elderly. She told me they were being put on people with mental health issues, people with physical disabilities, even on children with autism.”12

Continuing a death protocol put in place by the Liverpool Care Pathway, victims’ families allege the NHS is responsible for the involuntary euthanasia of up to 457 people per day, without the consent of patients or their caregivers — deaths often attributed to COVID pneumonia.13

The Liverpool Care Pathway for the Dying Patient (LCP) was a government protocol used in England and Wales to “improve end-of-life care.”14 Developed in the 1990s, the protocol was meant to provide best practice guidelines during a patient’s final days, and included guidance on symptom control, discontinuation of treatments and psychological, social and spiritual care.15

What occurred instead was a “pathway to euthanasia,” during which patients were drugged and deprived of food, water and medical treatments, even in cases when recovery may have been possible. The LCP was abolished in 2014, following public uproar and a government-commissioned review, which criticized its practices.16

End-of-Life Pathway ‘Has to Stop’

Even after LCP was abolished, however, reports continued from families who said their loved ones were put on the pathway and died as a result.17 Father Patrick Pullicino, retired neurologist and Catholic priest, states in “Playing God,” “We need patients to be able to face death in a natural way and not in a manufactured way.” Regarding the end-of-life pathway, Pullicino says:18

“It’s undermining medical ethics, because you have doctors who subscribe to the Hippocratic Oath and who would in no way voluntarily kill somebody, allowing these pathways to be used on their patients because they are ‘end of life.’ They used to audit the pathway very carefully, and they found that the average time to death from the time starting the pathway to the time the person died was about 39 hours. It really has to stop.”

The film gives a voice to the victims and their families, Deevoy says, but, ultimately, she hopes it will serve as a wake-up call to prompt change:19

“’Playing God’ serves as a wake-up call, urging society to stand against medical democide. It aims to raise awareness, encourage dialogue and demand accountability from those responsible … the film strives to create a lasting impact and initiate positive change within the U.K. healthcare system.”
