Sin: More Deadly Than the Coronavirus, part twelve

Part One of this series was published on March 25, 2020. I wrote the following near the end of part one to indicate that so-called “public health” officials were going to exploit the Wuhan/China/Chinese/Covid-19/Coronavirus to reduce the legitimate liberties of the masses according to the ever-changing whims of statists who have long been intent upon exacting universal conformity to whatever they determine to be the “undeniable and unassailable truth du jour:”

"You never want a serious crisis to go to waste." (Rahm Emanuel, In Crisis, Opportunity for Barack Obama - WSJ.com)

Well, the experiences of the past thirteen months have shown us that the statists are willing to use all means possible to keep exploiting what they have said repeatedly is a “crisis” and a “pandemic” even though less then 0.15% of those infected with the Wuhan/China/Chinese/Covid-19/Coronavirus die as a result. The “first wave” of the virus was followed by the “second wave,” a “third wave” and, according to the unfailingly fallible computerized “modeling” predictions, a “fourth wave," whose alleged existence is said to be the justification for shutting down Italy and the Province of Ontario in Canada.

This twelfth part of the “Sin: More Dangerous Than the Coronavirus” series, therefore, will elaborate upon many points made in the previous eleven parts while providing documentation of the lies that have been and continue to be told about the nature and extent of the plandemic as well as the insidiously evil nature of the gene-therapies that are being marketed as “vaccines” by the so-called medical “professionals.”

I. Face-to-Face with A Dictatorship by the “Experts”

As should be readily apparent by now, we are face to face with a government run by anti-life and, at least for the most part, anti-theistic statists and “public health” experts who are, to call to mind one of the fictional Control Agent 86 Maxwell Smart’s stock phrases, “enjoying very minute” of the power they have acquired and showing absolutely no sign of ever relinquish it. Indeed, the so-called “experts” have such a lust for power that they keep inventing more and more false rationales to explain why the anti-social and anti-public health mask mandates may have to continue for years into the future.

Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., the founder and president of Children’s Health Defense, included the following famous statement made by Luftwaffe commander Hermann Goring, made during the Nuremburg Trials, about how easy it is to convince for all different types of government to convince the people of the lies being told by their leaders, in the introduction to Dr. Joseph Mercola’s latest book, The Truth About Covid-19— Exposing the Great Reset, Lockdowns, Vaccine Passports, and the New Normal:

It is always a simple matter to drag the people along whether it is a democracy, a fascist dictatorship, or a parliament or a communist dictatorship.

Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is tell them they are being attacked, and denounce the pacifists for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to greater danger. It works the same in any country. (Silencing the Truth Teller About Covid-19: Dr. Joseph Mercola.)

This is certainly true, and it is rather curious that the late President of Tanzania, who was openly outspoken in his opposition to the global propaganda campaign to instill fear into the hearts and everyone on the planet about the CCP/Wuhan/China/Chinese/Covid-19/Coronavirus, and who demonstrated the fraudulent nature of the testing kits used to determine whether a person was infected with the virus by sending in samples from a papaya and a monkey, wound up dead recently and was replaced by a plandemic-compliant successor:

UPDATE 19/03/21 – Tanzania’s vice-President Samia Suluhu Hassan has been officially sworn in as the new President. Details.

UPDATE 20/03/21 – The new President is already being seen in public wearing a mask. Details.

After weeks of being out of the public eye, Tanzania’s President John Magufuli has died age 61, according to the country’s Vice President.

The global press are reporting the death of Tanzania’s “Covid denying President” with barely disguised glee.

The official cause of death is rumoured to be a heart attack, but some are implying it may have been due to the virus. The Economist, for example reports:

Many believe the virus was to blame”.

As if what “many believe” really means anything.

However it happened – whether virus or heart attack or, ahem, “suicide” – the long and short of it as that Magufuli is gone. Just as we predicted only a few days ago.

So what now for the East African nation? Well presumably Magufuli’s successor – be it the Vice-President, or a hastily elected new leader (perhaps the head of the opposition, given so many column inches in recent weeks) – will take the reins of the country.

Will they continue their predecessor’s “Covid denying” policies? I would be astounded.

If what happened in Burundi last summer is any guide, the Tanzanian Covid approach will be totally reversed within a day or two of the President dying.

As the Council on Foreign Relations reported, only last week:

a bold figure within the ruling party could capitalize on the current episode to begin to reverse course.”

Expect that “Bold Figure” to rise to prominence very soon, and receive the kind of glowing write-ups in the Western press, that only their hand-picked men ever get.

Bloomberg is already reporting that:

Tanzania’s Next Leader to Face Predecessor’s Covid Denialism

And that:

New leader must decide whether to change course on Covid-19

The Covid reversals have actually already begun, they were being put in place even before the President was reported dead, with WHO spokespeople praising Tanzania’s “new position” on Covid as early as March 12th.

The “new position” will likely be enforced with industrial blackmail. Bloomberg reports:

Magufuli spearheaded a major infrastructure investment drive, and pending decisions on whether to proceed with several mega-projects will now fall to his successor.

It’s not hard to see the obvious financial threat here. “Change your Covid position, or foreign investors will pull out of your infrastructure projects”.

Plus, there are the former President’s plans to part-nationalise the mining industry, which his successor may well be forced to halt, for fear of “alienating international investors”:

The nation’s new leader will also need to decide whether to run the risk of alienating international investors and press ahead with controversial mining reforms that Magufuli said were needed to ensure the nation derives greater benefit from its natural resources.

It seems fairly obvious there’s been a major powerplay in Tanzania, a soft coup using business in place of bullets. But what do you think?

What will President Magufuli’s successor do now?
Will the WHO be invited back into the country?
Will they start mass testing?
Will Tanzania’s “hidden pandemic” suddenly come to light?
Did Magufuli really die of natural causes?
For those of you who answered yes to question 5, would you like to buy a bridge?

UPDATE 19/03: As of this morning (the 19th) Magufuli’s Vice-President has been officially sworn in as his successor. Samia Suluhu Hassan, who was part educated in Britain, is the countries first female President, which the Western press are naturally all over.

In her inauguration speech, she called upon the country to “come together” and warned this was “not a time for pointing fingers”, demonstrating she’s aware of how suspicious this transition of power appears, and how tenuous her grip on power will be in these early days of replacing a very popular leader.

Remember yesterday when we predicted “glowing write-ups” for Magufuli’s successor?

Well, she’s being described as a “conciliator” in the press, which is Western journalism talk for “someone who will do as they are told”. Human Rights Watch has predicted Tanzania will experience a “revival of democracy” under her leadership, and The Guardian is already reporting:

DaMina Advisors, a political risk advisory firm, predicted the new president was likely to make a public U-turn on her predecessor’s policy of Covid denial and his generally negative attitudes toward foreign investors.

It really couldn’t be more obvious what has happened here.

UPDATE 20/3/21: The new President is already being seen in public wearing a mask. (Death of President John Mugufuli of Tanzania.)

Perhaps Tanzanian President John Mugufuli died a perfectly natural death, Then again, perhaps it is the case that these plandemicists play for keeps and will brook no dissension whatsoever from those in civil power, whose only job, the plandemcists believe, is to carry out the program outlined in Event 201 on October 18, 2021, as part of the "great reset of humanity."

A former vice president of Pfizer and the company’s former chief scientist for allergy and respiratory, has given an interview in which he warned Americans that the government and pharmaceutical company executives are lying to achieve goals that could endanger the health and the lives of vaccine recipients for years to come:

April 7, 2021 (LifeSiteNews) — Dr. Michael Yeadon, Pfizer's former Vice President and Chief Scientist for Allergy & Respiratory who spent 32 years in the industry leading new medicines research and retired from the pharmaceutical giant with “the most senior research position” in his field, spoke with LifeSiteNews in a telephone interview.

He addressed the “demonstrably false” propaganda from governments in response to COVID-19, including the “lie” of dangerous variants, the totalitarian potential for “vaccine passports,” and the strong possibility we are dealing with a “conspiracy” which could lead to something far beyond the carnage experienced in the wars and massacres of the 20^th century.

His main points included:

There is “no possibility” current variants of COVID-19 will escape immunity. It is “just a lie.”
Yet, governments around the world are repeating this lie, indicating that we are witnessing not just “convergent opportunism,” but a “conspiracy.” Meanwhile media outlets and Big Tech platforms are committed to the same propaganda and the censorship of the truth.
Pharmaceutical companies have already begun to develop unneeded “top-up” (“booster”) vaccines for the “variants.” The companies are planning to manufacture billions of vials, in addition to the current experimental COVID-19 “vaccine” campaign.
Regulatory agencies like the U.S. Food and Drug Administration and the European Medicines Agency, have announced that since these “top-up” vaccines will be so similar to the prior injections which were approved for emergency use authorization, drug companies will not be required to “perform any clinical safety studies.”
Thus, this virtually means that design and implementation of repeated and coerced mRNA vaccines “go from the computer screen of a pharmaceutical company into the arms of hundreds of millions of people, [injecting] some superfluous genetic sequence for which there is absolutely no need or justification.”
Why are they doing this? Since no benign reason is apparent, the use of vaccine passports along with a “banking reset” could issue in a totalitarianism unlike the world has ever seen. Recalling the evil of Stalin, Mao, and Hitler, “mass depopulation” remains a logical outcome.
The fact that this at least could be true means everyone must “fight like crazy to make sure that system never forms.”

Dr. Yeadon began identifying himself as merely a “boring guy” who went “to work for a big drug company … listening to the main national broadcast and reading the broad sheet newspapers.”

Continuing, he said: “But in the last year I have realized that my government and its advisers are lying in the faces of the British people about everything to do with this coronavirus. Absolutely everything. It’s a fallacy this idea of asymptomatic transmission and that you don’t have symptoms, but you are a source of a virus. That lockdowns work, that masks have a protective value obviously for you or someone else, and that variants are scary things and we even need to close international borders in case some of these nasty foreign variants get in.

“Or, by the way, on top of the current list of gene-based vaccines that we have miraculously made, there will be some ‘top-up’ vaccines to cope with the immune escape variants.

“Everything I have told you, every single one of those things is demonstrably false. But our entire national policy is based on these all being broadly right, but they are all wrong.”

‘Conspiracy’ and not just ‘convergent opportunism’

“But what I would like to do is talk about immune escape because I think that’s probably going to be the end game for this whole event, which I think is probably a conspiracy. Last year I thought it was what I called ‘convergent opportunism,’ that is a bunch of different stakeholder groups have managed to pounce on a world in chaos to push us in a particular direction. So it looked like it was kind of linked, but I was prepared to say it was just convergence.”

“I [now] think that’s naïve. There is no question in my mind that very significant powerbrokers around the world have either planned to take advantage of the next pandemic or created the pandemic. One of those two things is true because the reason it must be true is that dozens and dozens of governments are all saying the same lies and doing the same inefficacious things that demonstrably cost lives.

“And they are talking the same sort of future script which is, ‘We don’t want you to move around because of these pesky varmints, these “variants”’— which I call ‘samiants’ by the way, because they are pretty much the same — but they’re all saying this and they are all saying ‘don’t worry, there will be “top-up” vaccines that will cope with the potential escapees.’ They’re all saying this when it is obviously nonsense.”

Possible end game: vaccine ‘passports’ tied to spending allowances, thorough control

“I think the end game is going to be, ‘everyone receives a vaccine’… Everyone on the planet is going to find themselves persuaded, cajoled, not quite mandated, hemmed-in to take a jab.

“When they do that every single individual on the planet will have a name, or unique digital ID and a health status flag which will be ‘vaccinated,’ or not … and whoever possesses that, sort of single database, operable centrally, applicable everywhere to control, to provide as it were, a privilege, you can either cross this particular threshold or conduct this particular transaction or not depending on [what] the controllers of that one human population database decide. And I think that’s what this is all about because once you’ve got that, we become playthings and the world can be as the controllers of that database want it.

“For example, you might find that after a banking reset that you can only spend through using an app that actually feeds off this [database], your ID, your name, [and] your health status flag.”

“And, yes, certainly crossing an international border is the most obvious use for these vaccine passports, as they are called, but I’ve heard talk of them already that they could be necessary for you to get into public spaces, enclosed public spaces. I expect that if they wanted to, you would not be able to leave your house in the future without the appropriate privilege on your app.

“But even if that’s not [the] true [intent of the vaccine campaign], it doesn’t matter, the fact that it could be true means everyone [reading] this should fight like crazy to make sure that [vaccine passport] system never forms.”

“[With such a system], here is an example of what they could make you do, and I think this is what they’re going to make [people] do.

“You could invent a story that is about a virus and its variations, its mutations over time. You could invent the story and make sure you embed it through the captive media, make sure that no one can counter it by censoring alternative sources, then people are now familiar with this idea that this virus mutates, which it does, and that it produces variants, which is true [as well], which could escape your immune system, and that’s a lie.

“But, nevertheless, we’re going to tell you it’s true, and then when we tell you that it’s true and we say ‘but we’ve got the cure, here’s a top-up vaccine,’ you’ll get a message, based on this one global, this one ID system: ‘Bing!’ it will come up and say ‘Dr. Yeadon, time for your top-up vaccine. And, by the way,’ it will say ‘your existing immune privileges remain valid for four weeks. But if you don’t get your top-up vaccine in that time, you will unfortunately detrimentally be an “out person,” and you don’t want that, do you?’ So, that’s how it’ll work, and people will just walk up and they’ll get their top-up vaccine.”

Gov’t lies, Big Pharma moves forward, medicine regulators get out of the way, and possible ‘mass-depopulation’

“But I will take you through this, Patrick, because I am qualified to comment. I don’t know what Vanden Bossche is about. There was no possibility at all, based on all of the variants that are in the public domain, 4000 or so of them, none of them are going to escape immunity [i.e. become more dangerous].

“Nevertheless, politicians and health advisers (to loads of governments) are saying that they are. They’re lying. Well, why would you do that?

“Here’s the other thing, in parallel, pharmaceutical companies have said, several of them, it will be quite easy for us to adjust our gene-based vaccines, and we can hasten them through development, and we can help you.

“And here’s the real scary part, global medicines regulators like [the U.S. Food and Drug Administration] FDA, the Japanese medicines agency, the European Medicines Agency, have gotten together and announced … since top-up vaccines will be considered so similar to the ones that we have already approved for emergency use authorization, we are not going to require the drug companies to perform any clinical safety studies.

“So, you’ve got on the one hand, governments and their advisers that are lying to you that variants are different enough from the current virus that, even if you’re immune from natural exposure or vaccination, you’re a risk and you need to come and get this top-up vaccine. So, I think neither of those are true. So why is the drug company making the top-up vaccines? And [with] the regulators having got out of the way — and if Yeadon is right, and I’m sure I am or I wouldn’t be telling you this — you go from the computer screen of a pharmaceutical company into the arms of hundreds of millions of people, some superfluous genetic sequence for which there is absolutely no need or justification.

“And if you wanted to introduce a characteristic which could be harmful and could even be lethal, and you can even tune it to say ‘let’s put it in some gene that will cause liver injury over a nine-month period,’ or, cause your kidneys to fail but not until you encounter this kind of organism [that would be quite possible]. Biotechnology provides you with limitless ways, frankly, to injure or kill billions of people.

“And since I can’t think of a benign explanation for any of the steps: variants, top-up vaccines, no regulatory studies… it’s not only that I cannot think of a benign explanation, the steps described, and the scenario described, and the necessary sort of resolution to this false problem is going to allow what I just described: unknown, and unnecessary gene sequences injected into the arms of potentially billions of people for no reason.

“I’m very worried … that pathway will be used for mass depopulation, because I can’t think of any benign explanation.” (Former Pfizer Vice President, Dr. David Yeadon: Your Government Is Lying to You in a Way That Could Lead to Your Death.)

The facts are there for those who care to consider them, and it is important for those still imbued with even a slight taint of Americanist myths about the “greatness” of our government that those who do not care about their own Particular Judgment will never care about the truth and will thus lie as a matter of course, something that has been done in this country since 1776.

Although the aforementioned Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., believes that “free and open” debate would prevail if the current program of censorship imposed by the Red Chinese-friendly Silicon Valley mob had not been empowered, we know as believing Catholics that that totalitarianism is but the only consequence of unfettered “free speech” as, human nature being what it is, fallen men whose minds are not enlightened by the truths of the Holy Faith and whose souls are not vivified by Sanctifying Grace will seek to create their own secular and/or ideological religion to take the place of the true Faith as the means to teach and govern men.

Mr. Kennedy, who invoked the specter of the Spanish Inquisition without understanding a thing about it, why it was instituted to root out heretics and Jews trying to invalidate the sacraments and as they spread error aplenty or how it operated through a system of due process for the accused and an abiding concern for the good of souls upon which the entire fate of kingdoms, empires, and nations depends, though, is correct to state that an Iatrarchy—government by physicians—has risen to govern us all even though he does not understand the root causes that made its rise inevitable.

Here is another excerpt from Kennedy’s introduction to Dr. Joseph Mercola’s newest book:

To consolidate and fortify their power, dictatorships aim to replace those vital ingredients of self-rule — debate, self-expression, dissent and skepticism — with rigid authoritarian orthodoxies that function as secular surrogates for religion. These orthodoxies perform to abolish critical thinking and regiment populations in blind, unquestioning obedience to undeserving authorities.

Instead of citing scientific studies to justify mandates for masks, lockdowns and vaccines, our medical rulers cite WHO, CDC, FDA and NIH — captive agencies that are groveling sock puppets to the industries they regulate. Multiple federal and international investigations have documented the financial entanglements with pharmaceutical companies that have made these regulators cesspools of corruption.

Iatrarchy — meaning government by physicians — is a little-known term, perhaps because historical experiments with it have been catastrophic. The medical profession has not proven itself an energetic defender of democratic institutions or civil rights. Virtually every doctor in Germany took lead roles in the Third Reich’s project to eliminate mental defectives, homosexuals, handicapped citizens and Jews.

So many hundreds of German physicians participated in Hitler’s worst atrocities — including managing mass murder and unspeakable experiments at the death camps — that the allies had to stage separate “Medical Trials” at Nuremberg. Not a single prominent German doctor or medical association raised their voice in opposition to these projects.

So it’s unsurprising that, instead of demanding blue-ribbon safety science and encouraging honest, open and responsible debate on the science, the badly compromised and newly empowered government health officials charged with managing the COVID-19 pandemic response collaborated with mainstream and social media to shut down discussion on key public health and civil rights questions.

They silenced and excommunicated heretics like Dr. Mercola who refused to genuflect to Pharma and treat unquestioning faith in zero liability, shoddily tested experimental vaccines as religious duty. . . .

Our current iatrarchy’s rubric of “scientific consensus” is the contemporary iteration of the Spanish Inquisition. It is a fabricated dogma constructed by this corrupt cast of physician technocrats and their media collaborators to legitimize their claims to dangerous new powers.

The high priests of the modern Inquisition are Big Pharma’s network and cable news gasbags who preach rigid obedience to official diktats including lockdowns, social distancing and the moral rectitude of donning masks despite the absence of peer-reviewed science that convincingly shows that masks prevent COVID-19 transmission. The need for this sort of proof is gratuitous.

They counsel us to, instead, “trust the experts.” Such advice is both anti-democratic and anti-science. Science is dynamic. “Experts” frequently differ on scientific questions and their opinions can vary in accordance with the demands of politics, power and financial self-interest. Nearly every lawsuit I have ever brought pitted highly credentialed experts from opposite sides against each other, with all of them swearing under oath to diametrically antithetical positions based on the same set of facts. Science is disagreement; the notion of scientific consensus is oxymoronic.

The modern intention of the totalitarian state is corporate kleptocracy — a construct that replaces democratic process with the arbitrary edicts of unelected technocrats. Invariably, their fiats invest multinational corporations with extraordinary power to monetize and control the most intimate parts of our lives, enrich billionaires, impoverish the masses and manage dissent with relentless surveillance and obedience training.

In 2020, led by Bill Gates, Silicon Valley applauded from the sidelines as powerful medical charlatans — applying the most pessimistic projections from discredited modeling and easily manipulated PCR testing, and a menu of new protocols for coroners that appeared intended to inflate reporting of COVID-19 deaths — fanned pandemic panic and confined the world’s population under house arrest.

The suspension of due process, and notice, and comment rulemaking meant that none of the government prelates who ordained the quarantine had to first publicly calculate whether destroying the global economy, disrupting food and medical supplies, and throwing a billion humans into dire poverty and food insecurity would kill more people than it would save.

In America, their quarantine predictably shattered the nation’s once-booming economic engine, putting 58 million Americans out of work, and permanently bankrupting more than 100,000 small businesses, including 41,000 Black-owned businesses, some of which took three generations of investment to build. . . .

For example, this cabal used the lockdown to accelerate construction of their 5G network of satellites, antennae, biometric facial recognition and “track-and-trace” infrastructure that they, and their government and intelligence agency partners, will use to mine and monetize our data for free, compel obedience to arbitrary dictates and suppress dissent.

Their government/industry collaboration will use this system to manage the rage when Americans finally wake up to the fact that this outlaw gang has stolen our democracy, our civil rights, our country and way of life — while we huddled in orchestrated fear from a flu-like illness.

Predictably our other constitutional guarantees lined up behind free speech at the gibbet. The imposition censorship has masked this systematic demolition of our Constitution, including attacks on our freedoms of assembly (through social distancing and lockdown rules), on freedom of worship (including abolishing religious exemptions and closing churches, while liquor stores remain open as “essential service”), private property (the right to operate a business), due process (including the imposition of far-reaching restrictions against freedom of movement, education and association without rule making, public hearings, or economic and environmental impact statements), the 7th Amendment right to jury trials (in cases of vaccine injuries caused by corporate negligence), our rights to privacy and against illegal searches and seizures (warrantless tracking and tracing), and our right to have governments that don’t spy on us or retain our information for mischievous purposes.

Silencing Dr. Mercola’s voice, of course, was the Medical Cabal’s early priority. For decades, Dr. Mercola has been among the most effective and influential advocates against the pharmaceutical paradigm. He was an eloquent, charismatic and knowledgeable critic of a corrupt system that has made Americans the world’s top consumer of pharmaceutical drugs. Americans pay the highest prices for drugs, and have the worst health outcomes among the top 75 nations.

Putting opiates — which kill 50,000 Americans annually — aside, pharmaceuticals are now the third biggest killer of Americans, after heart attacks and cancer. Like a prophet in the wilderness, Dr. Mercola has argued for years that good health does not come in a syringe or a pill, but from building strong immune systems. He preaches that nutrition and exercise are the most effective medicines, and that public health officials ought to be pushing policies that discourage reliance on pharmaceutical products and that safeguard our food supplies from Big Food, Big Chemical and Big Ag. These predatory industries naturally consider Dr. Mercola to be Public Enemy #1.

Big Pharma’s $9.6 billion annual advertising budget gives these unscrupulous companies control over our news and television outlets. Strong economic drivers (pharmaceutical companies are the biggest network advertisers) have long discouraged mainstream media outlets from criticizing vaccine manufacturers. In 2014, a network president, Roger Ailes, told me he would fire any of his news show hosts who allowed me to talk about vaccine safety on air. “Our news division,” he explained, “gets up to 70% of ad revenues from pharma in non-election years.”

Thus, pharmaceutical products were both the predicate and the punchline of the Cancel Culture. The Pharmedia long ago banned Dr. Mercola from the airwaves and newsprint while turning Wikipedia — which functions as Pharma’s newsletter and propaganda vehicle — into a mill for defamations against him and every other integrative and functional health physician.

At COVID’s outset, the social media robber barons — all with their own financial entanglements with Pharma — joined the campaign to silence Mercola by ejecting him from their platforms. (Silencing the Truth Teller About Covid-19: Dr. Joseph Mercola. Other important links documenting the similarities between the Nazi eugenicists and our own plandemicists are: Medical Science Under Dictatorship and The Nuremburg Doctors' Trial and Modern Medicine's Panic Promotion of the FDA (EEUA) Covid-19 Vaccines.)

Once again, ignoring Robert Francis Kennedy, Jr.’s., elegy of praise for democracy and his utter ignorance about the Spanish Inquisition, his description of the situation we face is very accurate even though he is without understanding a single, solitary thing about the situation he describes is all the result of the Protestant Revolution’s overthrow of the Social Reign of Christ the King and the subsequent rise of a welter of Judeo-Masonic ideologies and “philosophies” that have deified mere men and dethroned Our Redeemer King.

We have been told one lie after another, and as it is easy for even the most intelligent and discerning of people to be convinced of lies that are repeated over and over again as “accepted truth” that our civil minders and technocratic censors believe are not even remotely open to question, debate or challenge even on purely naturalistic, medical and scientific terms. The oligarchs and autocrats want nothing less than total conformity, total compliance.

Indeed, National Broadcasting Company employee, Lester Holt, who, I supposed, is the anchorman of the network’s current iteration of the Huntley-Brinkley Report, said recently that today’s ideological advocates and apologists for leftism, the intelligence and warfare communities, the combined collective of the forces of perversity and the killing of innocent human beings, and, of course, “Big Pharma,” who call themselves “journalists” should strive not to be fair to those who oppose the [false] narrative they seek to advance:

NBC Nightly News anchor Lester Holt says “fairness is overrated” and the news media no longer needs to present both sides of a given story.

Holt, who was this week awarded the Edward R. Murrow Lifetime Achievement Award in Journalism from Washington State University, waxed poetic on the news media, at one point declaring that “it’s become clearer that fairness is over-rated.”

“Before you run off and tweet that headline, let me explain a bit,” he said. “The idea that we should always give two sides equal weight and merit does not reflect the world we find ourselves in. That the sun sets in the west is a fact. Any contrary view does not deserve our time or attention.”

Holt said “you won’t have to look far to find more current and relevant examples,” noting misinformation about the 2020 presidential election and COVID-19.

And the anchor said there’s no longer any need for a journalist to give both sides of a story equal weight.

“Decisions to not give unsupported arguments equal time are not a dereliction of journalistic responsibility or some kind of agenda. In fact, it’s just the opposite,” Holt said. “Providing an open platform for misinformation, for anyone to come say whatever they want, especially when issues of public health and safety are at stake, can be quite dangerous. Our duty is to be fair to the truth. Holding those in power accountable is at the core of our function and responsibility. We need to hear our leader’s views, their policies, and reasoning. It’s really important. But we have to stand ready to push back and call out falsehoods.”

Holt has served as the anchor of NBC Nightly News since 2015, having joined the network in 2000 and working as a co-host of “Today” and other NBC news programs.

The anchor also talked about an evolution of major media companies, which have to win the trust of their audiences even as they report “uncomfortable truths.” (NBC News Anchor Says Fairness is Overrated.)

Lester Holt is far from alone, of course, as every mainslime media outlet is nothing other than a source of disinformation in the service of statism and every moral evil imaginable. The New York Times has been caught in “two monstrous lies” (Capital Hill Officer Brian Sicknick died of natural causes, not after having been hit in the head with a fire extinguisher by a Capitol rioter on January 6, 2021; Russia did not offer to pay bounties to dead American soldiers in Afghanistan as The Times reported in June of 2020) recently, and a Project Veritas “sting” operation has released a hidden video showing an employee of the Communist News Network (CNN) admitting that the network founded by the anti-Catholic pantheist named Ted Turner had deliberately played up the statistics of those said to have been infected with the CCP/Wuhan/China/Chinese/Covid-19/Coronavirus in 2020 in an effort oust President Donald John Trump from office:

The CNN staffer who was secretly recorded admitting the network used “propaganda” to help get Joe Biden elected president also said they played up the COVID-19 death toll for ratings — and that the order came down directly from top brass.

Charlie Chester, a technical Director at the cable network, was filmed by Project Veritas during a series of fake Tinder dates as he explained how “Fear really drives numbers.”

“COVID? Gangbusters with ratings,” Chester told the unidentified PV staffer.

“Which is why we constantly have the death toll on the side,” he continued, making reference to the coronavirus death tracker that would appear on the screen. “It would make our point better if [the COVID death toll] was higher.”

The Project Veritas employee, who was not identified and claimed to be a nurse, went on five dates with the CNN staffer, including the final one at a coffee shop in Chester’s neighborhood. It’s unclear when the dates took place.

On one of the meet-ups, Chester explained to the PV employee why the network went so heavy on COVID coverage, saying, “Fear is the thing that really keeps you tuned in.”

Going on to reference the death toll, Chester then said he had “a major problem with how we’re tallying how many people die every day, because I’ve even looked at it and been like, look at it and be like, ‘Let’s make it higher.’ Like, why isn’t high enough, you know, today?”

Chester claimed there was a “red phone” that network president Jeff Zucker would use to call the control room to order producers to play up the Covid death count on screen.

“Like, this special red phone rings and they pick it up and it’s, like, the head of the network being like, ‘There’s nothing that you’re doing right now that makes me want to stick. Put the numbers back up. Because that’s the most enticing thing that we have.’ So things like that are constantly talked about,” the staffer said.

He also told his date that there is “no such thing as unbiased news,” and explained how that manifests at CNN.

“Any reporter on CNN, what they’re actually doing is they’re telling the person what to say. It’s always, like, leading them in a direction before they even open their mouths,” he said.

“And the only people we let on air, for the most part, are people that have a proven track record of taking the bait.”

A CNN spokesperson did not immediately respond to The Post’s request for comment on the second part of the Project Veritas report.

In part one of the PV series, Chester was seen revealing that his network produced “propaganda” to oust former President Donald Trump during the 2020 presidential election.

“Look what we did, we [CNN] got Trump out. I am 100 percent going to say it, and I 100 percent believe that if it wasn’t for CNN, I don’t know that Trump would have got voted out,” Chester said, adding that he came to work at CNN because he ”wanted to be a part of that.”

“Our focus was to get Trump out of office, right? Without saying it, that’s what it was.” (CNN Staffer Tells Project Veritas Staffer Network Played Up Covid-19 Death Toll for Ratings.)

Please, take it from one who was a news junkie from his childhood in the 1950s until May of 2003, one can stay informed about current events without putting his soul at risk by watching television news programs of any news organization, including Fox News. The saints did not need this kind of worldly distraction to sanctify their souls as they knew that the world in which they lived was merely transitory and that they could not let themselves waste their precious Catholic time on disinformation. One can live without watching television at any time for any reason, including the news as we should remember that Our Blessed Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ would not subject his holy eyes to the pollution of televised propaganda. Why should we?

This propaganda campaign is all pervasive today, of course. Every so-called “conservative” and “freedom-loving” promoter of “constitutionalism” and “liberty” on the complete waste of time known as “talk radio” is a propagator of the “pandemic” narrative and support the gene therapy treatments (“vaccines”), perhaps principally because “Operation Warp Speed” was started last year by former President Donald John Trump, who remains an almost wholly-owned subsidiary of the Big Pharmaceutical industry.

Thus, do not deceive yourself into thinking that you are going to “learn” anything from the babblers of naturalism. Our Catholic time is precious, and we do not need to waste it by permitting error to seep into our immortal souls as the adversary, who prowls about the world like a roaring lion seeking souls to devour, is always on the ready to use even any slight of amount of credulity a Catholic might give at first glance to error as the opportunity to draw them more and more into the trees of the forest and away from spending time in prayer, especially, if possible where one lives, before the Blessed Sacrament, and, of course, to Our Lady through her Most Holy Rosary.

II. The Propaganda Campaign to Deny the Nature and Extent of the Injuries Caused at Warp Speed by the Vaccines

Most people want to live without the cross. They want to live without suffering, pain, rejection, economic hardship, joblessness, or any other kind of temporal affliction. They want to party, and party hard. They want to relax and enjoy a limitless number of pleasures. The plandemic stopped the partying. The plandemic stopped freedom of movement. The plandemic has been used as a means to look to the government to “cure” us and to make the “party” happen again.

Protestantism rejects all images of Our Lord Crucified. It is a corrupted Christianity without the Cross of the Crucified Redeemer and without His doctrine of Redemptive Suffering and is without any value in the work of the sanctification and salvation of souls and unworthy of any kind of respect from Catholics. The pharmaceutical industry has taken full advantage of the residual Protestant-turned-secular desire to anesthetize suffering and pain of any kind, physical and/or emotional. Billions of dollars in advertising money are spent every year in exploiting a world without any notion of redemptive suffering.

The gene therapy treatments (vaccines) that have been developed to create transhumans have become a placebo to provide people with a false sense of security. The following quotations have been overheard in various places of business here in north central Texas as various people discussed the “salvific” power of the gene therapy treatments that are cloaked with the supposedly respectable name of “vaccines.”

“Give me the vaccine” so that I can get back to the party.”

“I can live without fear because I have been vaccinated.”

“I can go anywhere now because the government says the vaccinated are safe to travel. “The vaccine passport frees me to do what I want.”

“Just trust the science and get vaccinated.”

These attitudes are common among those who live according to the passions, that is, according to an inchoate desire to avoid all pain and inconvenience and maximizing a variety of pleasures to the exclusion of even any remote consideration of supernatural realities. There is thus a predisposition on the part of most people to believe whatever they are told by government officials and the “experts” (military, national security, medical, pharmaceutical, academic, corporate, etc.) tell them is for their own good.

As has been demonstrated in several previous parts of this series, governmental leaders, including top level civil servants such as Dr. Anthony Fauci, oligarchs such as Bill Gates, “healthcare” professionals and members of the mainslime media all joined together in 2020 in an effort to exaggerate the numbers of those who had been killed by the CCP/Wuhan/China/Chinese/Covid-19/Coronavirus. Now, however, these same propagandists are doing everything possible to deny any link whatsoever between the Pfizer/BioNTech, Moderna and Johnson and Johnson vaccines and the deaths of more than a handful of recipients within a short period of time after receiving their “jabs” in the misplaced belief that they were getting something to “protect” themselves against the CCP/Wuhan/China/Chinese/Covid-19/Coronavirus.

The stories that follow are truly heartbreaking as even the survivors of those killed and those injured by the vaccines keep insisting that the vaccines had nothing to do with the adverse effects anyone with a modicum of intellectual honesty can see for themselves.

First, there is the tragic story of an eighteen year-old woman in Nevada who has suffered seizures and blot clots in the brain after receiving the Johnson and Johnson vaccine that have caused her to undergo three surgeries in recent weeks:

LAS VEGAS (KVVU) -- An 18-year-old Las Vegas woman suffered seizures and clotting in the brain after receiving the Johnson & Johnson COVID-19 vaccine on or about April 1, according to a GoFundMe campaign raising money for her medical expenses.

The woman, identified as Emma Burkey, was one of six women across the country who experienced a serious clotting side effect after receiving the one-shot vaccine.

The use of the J&J vaccine has been suspended while federal health agencies investigate if the vaccine could be the cause of blood clots in the women, or if providers should be aware of preexisting conditions or medications that could lead to complications.

Burkey was initially treated at St. Rose Dominican Hospital in Henderson, Nevada, according to the fundraiser, which was verified by a company spokesperson. She was subsequently airlifted to Loma Linda Hospital's special neural treatment unit near San Bernardino, California.

"Emma was put into an induced coma, ventilated and at least three brain surgeries have been done to repair blood clots," the GoFundMe states.

A family spokesperson also confirmed the details of Burkey's hospitalization. The Burkey family's pastor at The Walk Church explained how their community has been praying for recovery.

"There's been a whole lot of unknowns throughout this journey. But it's it's led and moved us to a deeper sense of prayer, a deeper sense of faith. And really, it's united us in a way to stand together with the Berkey family and pray them through even in the challenging days," said Pastor Heiden Ratner.

A CDC panel stated that Burkey and other women experienced headaches and back pain prior to the discovery of blood clots.

"She just began to have some pretty severe headaches. And then when she started to have some seizure-like symptoms, and actually had some seizures. They knew it was time for her to go to the hospital," Ratner said.

The CDC panel disclosed that Burkey was given Heparin, a blood thinner; the panel and Dr. Anthony Fauci cautioned that blood thinners can make the condition worse.

Ercan Aydogdu, CEO of Coral Academy Las Vegas, confirmed Burkey was a senior at the school in a statement:

The student body and staff here at Coral Academy have heavy hearts as we now know one of our very own students has experienced adverse side effects from the Johnson & Johnson vaccine. In a “one in a million” chance of this happening, we are heartbroken, yet pledge our support to the family during this difficult time. We have also made on-campus resources readily available for those who know the student and need assistance during this time. We support all of our parents and their individual right to choose how to move forward with vaccinating their students. (Eighteen Year-old Woman Suffered Seizures and Blood Clots in Brain after Johnson and Johnson vaccine.)

What “condition,” pray tell, can blood thinners make worse, Dr. Fauci?

Fauci wants to be seen as the omniscient expert on all things relating to the CCP/Wuhan/China/Chinese/Covid-19/Coronavirus. However, he persists in being as skeptical of the adverse reactions caused by the various vaccines to protect against a virus that has less than a 0.15% of killing those who get infected by it—and that is including those who have died as a result of bad treatment in hospitals and/or have been killed off by “comfort care” (i.e., “palliative care”/hospice). This is because he has a vested interest, both ideologically and financially, in perpetuating the myth of a “pandemic” and in promoting the nonexistent “efficacy” and “safety” of a gene-therapy treatment that is being sold to the public by three different manufacturers as “vaccines,” two of which are poisoned by the stem cell lines of aborted babies.

A few other stories of the people who have been victimized by “Operation Warp Speed” even though neither they nor, in the cases of the deceased, their survivors understand this to be the case will be presented shortly to provide readers of this site with some small dose of antidote to all the misinformation that is being spread by the mainslime media and to provide them information they can share with the “true believers in Big Pharma” friends and relatives.

A man in New Jersey contracted the CCP/Wuhan/China/Chinese/Covid-19/Coronavirus after being vaccinated last month, and the Prime Minister of Pakistan also contracted the virus after being vaccinated. So much for vaccine “effectiveness,” although the Pakistani prime minister, who was vaccinated with the Russian Sputnik V vaccine, is still urging people to be vaccinated:

A New Jersey man is in the hospital with COVID-19 — just five weeks after being vaccinated.

Francisco Cosme, 52, was ecstatic when he booked an appointment for the one-dose Johnson & Johnson vaccine at the Javits Center on March 6.

After Cosme was vaccinated, he continued to wear a mask and follow social distancing guidelines but he became “very confused and began doing things that were not normal,” his daughter, Michelle Torres, told The Post.

“April 1 was the very first day he started to have symptoms,” Torres said. “He had a cough, fever, chills, everything.”

The 31-year-old drove her father to a clinic where he tested positive for COVID-19 and he was instructed to quarantine for 10 days.

Last week, his condition worsened and Torres noticed he had trouble breathing and called 911 during a visit to his home in Edison, New Jersey.

After giving Cosme oxygen, the ambulance crew rushed him to John F. Kennedy Medical Center, where he is in critical condition and is also being treated for pneumonia.

“I’m trying to hold it together, every day you don’t know what is happening,” said a tearful Torres.

“The doctor said they did all they can do it and it’s up to him to fight and up to God.”

Torres told The Post her mother, husband and children ended up testing positive for COVID and are in quarantine until next Sunday.

“We survived the whole year without it [vaccine] doing all the things we are supposed to so do — social distancing, washing hands and masking up,” she explained.

“It’s crazy and we need answers,” Torres concluded.

The Post also reported that a Brooklyn woman who got the Johnson & Johnson vaccine at the Javits Center on March 10 contracted COVID-19. (New Jersey Man in Hospital With Covid After Being Fully Vaccinated.)

Pakistan’s prime minister, cricket legend Imran Khan, has tested positive for COVID-19 — two days after getting his first dose of the vaccine, officials announced.

The 68-year-old leader was “in good health” with a mild cough and fever and was self-isolating at home, his special assistant on health, Dr. Faisal Sultan, said in announcing the infection on Saturday.

The premier’s wife and two senior members of his Tehreek-e-Insaf (Justice) Party also tested positive, Sultan announced Sunday.

Khan — who regularly attended gatherings without wearing a mask — had just had his first vaccine shot on Thursday.

Key members of his administration urged citizens to continue getting vaccinated amid fears that news of the leader’s sickness would only heighten widespread hesitation in Pakistan over the shots.

“The symptoms take a few days before manifesting. Hence it is certain that PM had been infected PRIOR to vaccination,” Asad Umar, the minister in charge of the country’s COVID-19 operations, said in a tweet.

“So please do vaccinate,” he wrote.

While it was not announced which vaccine Khan was given, the shot produced by China National Pharmaceutical Group — Sinopharm — is the only one officially available in Pakistan.

Media reports say a private Pakistani pharmaceutical company has imported 50,000 doses of the Russian Sputnik V vaccine, according to The Associated Press.

Pakistan has seen a concerning spike in COVID-19 cases in the capital and in eastern and northern areas. Authorities on Sunday reported 44 new deaths and 3,667 new confirmed infections.

Overall, the virus has killed close to 14,000 people in Pakistan and infected more than 626,000. (Pakistani Prime Minister Imran Khan Contracts Covid-19 After Receiving a Vaccine.)

This is all a gigantic farce.

Yet it is that the most people accept the farce of representing “good science” because they do not want to pay attention to the sort of nasty little facts that are being presented in this commentary and because they do not want to be “on the outs” once the “vaccine passports” become a necessity in the same states that have imposed the most draconian lockdowns after relying upon “modeling systems” that have been notoriously unreliable, including the one run by Bill Gates that the disgraced and discredited Governor of the State of New York, Andrew Mark Cuomo, used when he says there were not enough hospital beds available in the Empire State for those infected with the CCP/Wuhan/China/Chinese/Covid-19/Coronavirus thirteen months ago and then ordered infected patients to be placed in nursing homes. The modeling systems have been unfailingly wrong, and the hospitals in states such as New York and Michigan had plenty of beds available for patients even though the “models” said those institutions were at full capacity.

Lies were told a year ago to justify the lockdowns and to accustom the people to a form of social control that had nothing to do with public health and everything to do with creating an anti-social “new normal” of compliant lemmings willing to believe and then to do whatever the “government” and their mouthpieces say must be done to keep them “safe” from a virus that is a legitimate threat only to those who are elderly and/or who are suffering from preexisting co-morbidities.

Statists such as Andrew Mark Cuomo in New York, Gretchen Whitmer in Michigan, Ralph Northam in Virginia, Philip Murphy in New Jersey, Kate Brown in Oregon, J.B. Pritzker in Illinois, Christopher Newsom in California, Michelle Lujan Grisham in New Mexico, Jay Inslee in Washington, Ned Lamont in Connecticut, and Thomas Wolf in Pennsylvania ignored reality last year, and they and their “public health” officials are ignoring reality this year, especially as regards the “safety” of vaccines that is but another lie.

The lie of vaccine “safety” is so obvious that it has been hard even for the authorities of the administration of President In Name Only (PINO) Joseph Robinette Biden, Jr., and De Facto President Kamala “Not Going to the Border” Harris, to ignore the problems with the Johnson and Johnson vaccine for the CCP/China/Chinese/Covid-19/Coronavirus:

It’s been a bumpy ride for Johnson & Johnson’s (J&J) COVID vaccine rollout.

At the beginning of the month, the vaccine maker had to throw out 15 million doses of its vaccine after they were contaminated with AstraZeneca vaccine ingredients at an unapproved manufacturing plant. The setback contributed to last week’s announcement that the company won’t be able to deliver on its promise of 24 million additional doses of its one-shot vaccine by the end of April.

Those weren’t the only negative headlines. Last week, J&J vaccine sites in four states had to shut down after reports of adverse reactions. There also were multiple reports of COVID breakthrough cases in people who received the vaccine, marketed under its subsidiary, Janssen.

J&J is on notice regarding investigations by European and U.S. regulators for reports of blood clots in individuals who received the vaccine.

And today, the company faced more backlash from investors after its CEO was awarded a 17% pay raise while billions are being paid out for the company’s role in the nation’s opioid epidemic.

Here’s a breakdown of the five reasons J&J is having a very bad month:

1. Vaccination sites shut down in four states after more than 45 people suffer adverse reactions.

A vaccination site in Colorado, three sites in North Carolina, one in Georgia and one in Iowa shut down last week after more than 45 people suffered adverse reactions to the J&J shot.

As The Defender reported April 8, more than 600 people with appointments were turned away from a J&J mass vaccination site in Colorado after several vaccine recipients suffered adverse reactions.

Centura Health, which helped run the community vaccination center at Dick’s Sporting Goods Park, said in a statement that 11 patients who received the vaccine experienced reactions. Two people were transferred to the hospital after medical staff determined they required additional observation. Centura officials did not specify what reactions were observed or their severity.

Health officials in Wake County, North Carolina, paused COVID vaccinations on Thursday after 18 people at the PNC Arena experienced adverse reactions and four were transferred to area hospitals. A few hours later, UNC Health’s Friday Center and Hillsborough Campus vaccination sites also stopped administering J&J’s vaccine.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) analyzed the vaccine lot used at the PNC Arena and UNC sites and recommended J&J vaccinations continue.

Georgia was the third state to temporarily pause vaccinations after the Georgia Department of Public Health said eight people suffered adverse reactions at the Cumming Fairground site Wednesday. The CDC said it analyzed the vaccine lots and found no concerns.

The Pottawattamie County Health Department in Iowa paused operations April 7 after three of 35 people who received J&J’s COVID vaccine experienced adverse reactions. The site consulted with the CDC and determined the shot was safe.

Operations resumed on Thursday but the county now requires people to stay for 30 minutes instead of 15 minutes after their appointment to be monitored, KCCI News reported.

2. Reports of COVID in people fully vaccinated with J&J’s vaccine continue to mount.

A New Jersey man is in the hospital fighting for his life after being fully vaccinated against COVID, reported ABC7 NY. A woman reported she and her husband got J&J’s vaccine on March 6, but tested positive for COVID on April 1. The husband is hospitalized in critical condition and is also being treated for pneumonia.

According to the CDC, J&J’s vaccine was 66.3% effective in clinical trials, with people having the most protection two weeks after receiving the shot. Clinical trial data also indicated the vaccine was highly effective at preventing hospitalization in those who did get sick, according to the company.

Chief Health and Science Officer for the American Medical Association, Dr. Mira Irons, said on March 26 J&J’s COVID vaccine has “100% efficacy against hospitalization and death from the virus.”

Irons noted that White House Chief Medical Adviser Dr. Anthony Fauci, among other top experts said “it’s really important to focus on the severe end of the spectrum, preventing hospitalization and death.”

A Brooklyn woman, Ashley Allen, managed to avoid catching COVID during 2020, but was diagnosed with the disease three weeks after being vaccinated with J&J’s vaccine. Even after getting the one-shot vaccine, Allen said she continued to take precautions against the virus — masking up and washing her hands frequently.

“I definitely was very confused by it,” Allen said Monday, thinking perhaps it was a false positive.

As The Defender reported March 31, an increasing number of “breakthrough cases” of COVID in fully vaccinated people (including people vaccinated with Pfizer, Moderna and J&J vaccines) have been reported in Washington, Florida, South Carolina, Texas, New York, California and Minnesota. The cases included some people who required hospitalization, including at least three who died.

3. U.S. and European regulators are reviewing cases of blood clots in people who received J&J’s vaccine.

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is investigating rare blood clots in people who received the J&J vaccine, Fierce Pharma reported today.

The news came after Europe’s drug regulator said Friday it is reviewing reports of blood clots in people who received J&J’s COVID vaccine, Reuters reported.

The European Medicines Agency (EMA) said three serious cases of clotting and low platelets occurred in the U.S. during the rollout of J&J’s vaccine, and one person died from a clotting disorder reported during a clinical trial.

On April 7, the EMA confirmed a “possible link” between AstraZeneca’s COVID vaccine and blood clots. Like AstraZeneca, J&J uses a modified adenovirus vector as opposed to the mRNA technology used in the Moderna and Pfizer’s COVID vaccines.

J&J said it was aware of the reports of rare blood clots in individuals given its COVID vaccine and was working with regulators to assess the data and provide relevant information. The company also noted there was no causal relationship between these “rare events and the Janssen COVID-19 vaccine,” in a statement to Reuters.

4. J&J vaccine output dropped by 85% after 15 million doses were contaminated with AstraZeneca ingredients.

ABC News reported the U.S. will experience an 85% drop in availability of J&J’s COVID vaccine, and is unlikely to see a steady output from the vaccine maker until the company resolves production issues at a facility in Baltimore, Maryland, according to federal officials and data.

As The Defender reported April 1, 15 million doses of J&J’s COVID vaccine failed quality control after workers at a plant run by Emergent BioSolutions — a manufacturing partner with J&J and AstraZeneca, whose vaccine has yet to be authorized for use in the U.S — were contaminated with AstraZeneca ingredients.

The mix-up forced regulators to delay authorization of the plant’s production lines and prompted an investigation by the FDA.

AstraZeneca and J&J’s COVID vaccines employ the same technology which uses a version of a virus — known as a vector — that is transmitted into cells to make a protein that then stimulates the immune system to produce antibodies. However, J&J’s and AstraZeneca’s vectors are biologically different and not interchangeable.

Records obtained through the Freedom of Information Act by the Associated Press showed Emergent has been cited repeatedly by the FDA for problems such as poorly trained employees, cracked vials and mold around one of its facilities

According to The Washington Post, the Biden administration put J&J in control of manufacturing at the Emergent BioSolutions after the incident. Jeff Zients, the White House coronavirus coordinator, told reporters on Friday J&J is still working to address issues with Emergent Biosolutions, but expects the plant to be certified by the FDA.

5. Critics take shots at J&J over CEO’s $30 million pay package while the company pays out billions for its role in the opioid epidemic.

Proxy adviser Glass Lewis recommended investors reject the nearly $30 million pay package for J&J Chief Executive Officer Alex Gorsky, arguing the healthcare company is shielding its top executives from the legal cost of poor business decisions, Reuters reported.

J&J is attracting investor scrutiny because it excluded from its calculation of stock awards to its top executives costs related to lawsuits, including $4 billion tied to J&J’s role in the nation’s opioid epidemic and damages related to asbestos in its talc baby powder that caused cancer.

Gorsky’s compensation, which totaled $29.6 million in 2020, was up 17% from the previous year –– 365 times the company’s median annual employee pay of $81,000, according to International Shareholder Services (ISS) estimates.

Institutional Shareholder Services (ISS) joined rival advisory firm Lewis in recommending that J&J investors vote to reject Gorsky’s compensation deal. ISS said J&J’s corporate governance was poor, giving it a 7 rating on a scale of 1-10, where 10 is the worst. On compensation, ISS gave J&J a rating of 9, reported CBS News.

“In our opinion, the adjustments related to well-documented legal actions essentially shield executives’ compensation from the detrimental impact of their decisions for the company,” Lewis said.

Gorsky became CEO in 2012, and was at the helm of J&J during the opioid crisis which according to the CDC, claimed nearly 450,000 lives in the U.S. between 1999 and 2018. In 2019, 50,000 people died in the U.S. from opioid related overdoses, according to the National Institutes of Health.

“I think [Gorsky’s] pay was excessive,” said Rosanna Landis Weaver, who analyzes executive compensation at As You Sow, a nonprofit that promotes shareholder advocacy on inequality, the environment and other issues.

“You have to treat one-off events whether they are positive or negative in the same way,” she said. “He’s going to want credit for the extraordinarily good things that happen, like developing a COVID-19 vaccine, but that means he should also get a penalty for the extraordinarily bad things that happen as well.” (Johnson and Johnson’s Very Bad Month.)

The statists and their public health “experts” are unfazed by any of this, and, as noted earlier, even the survivors of those who died within a short time after receiving one of the vaccines still believe that the vaccines did not cause their relatives’ deaths.

A twenty-one year-old student at the University of Cincinnati died a day after he had received the Johnson and Johnson vaccination. However, neither the authorities nor his family believe that the vaccine caused his sudden death:

A University of Cincinnati student died one day after receiving the Johnson & Johnson COVID-19 vaccine, according to health officials.

John Foley, 21, passed away unexpectedly on Sunday — a day after he was administered the one-dose jab, Hamilton County Coroner Lakshmi Kode Sammarco told Fox 19.

The cause of Foley’s death is under investigation by the Ohio Department of Health and the coroner’s office.

Foley was found Sunday by his roommates. There is no evidence that his death is related to the Johnson & Johnson shot — which was paused in the US this week over ties to blood clots.

Foley’s family released a statement calling him “this wonderful and sweet joy of our lives.”

“While the facts remain unclear on how he died, we are rejoicing in how he lived: caring for others, lit with God’s grace, and generous to all,” the statement said.

“We know the doctors involved are doing their best. We must be patient, and we ask everyone else to be patient, too. John was going to be a doctor, so this is what he would want.”

News of Foley’s death comes as a man from Mississippi was left paralyzed on one side and unable to talk after receiving the Johnson & Johnson shot. (College Student Dead A Day After Receive Johnson and Johnson vaccine.)

Here is the story of the Mississippi man who was paralyzed on one side after receiving the Johnson and Johnson vaccine:

A Mississippi man who experienced a blood clot after receiving the Johnson & Johnson COVID-19 vaccine, has been left paralyzed on one side of his body and unable to talk, his family said.

Brad Malagarie, 43, of St. Martin, suffered a stroke soon after stepping out last week to get the one-dose shot, news station WLOX reported.

“They called me and said he had that vaccine and something is wrong, we think it’s a stroke,” his aunt, Celeste Foster O’Keefe, told the outlet.

The father of seven was rushed to the hospital, where they determined that he had a stroke as a result of a blood clot in his brain, the outlet reported.

“I said be sure to tell the doctors he took that J & J vaccine and that, to me, is what caused his stroke,” his aunt said.

O’Keefe said he took medication for high blood pressure, but was otherwise a “young, healthy” man.

Now, the medical episode has left him paralyzed on the right side of his body, she said.

“He can’t talk now and he can’t walk. He’s paralyzed on the right side. He knows who we are and he will just cry when he sees us,” O’Keefe said.

She said doctors don’t know how long it will take him to recover.

“We want him to be able to communicate, to be able to walk and talk again, even if it’s not perfect,” O’Keefe said.

Federal regulators paused the use of the one-dose J&J shot on Tuesday after six women between the ages of 18 and 48 developed blood clots, including one who died.

On Wednesday, the drugmaker disclosed two more cases in recipients — including one man.

It’s unclear whether the inoculation is linked to the rare blood-clotting cases, which occurred out of more than 7.2 million people who have received the vaccine.

“CDC and FDA are working rapidly to investigate each case and understand whether there is a causal relationship between these blood clots and vaccine administration,” CDC director Dr. Rochelle Walensky said. (Mississippi Man Partially Paralyzed and Unable to Talk about Johnson and Johnson vaccine.)

These deaths and injuries are on the hands of those who have been pushing the plandemic lie for thirteen months now, and it should be noted as well that President Donald John Trump, wanting to be seen a champion of “public health,” bears his own share of personal responsibility for surrendering himself to “experts” such as Anthony Fauci and Deborah Birx and for the unwarranted trust he placed in Big Pharma to “solve” the “pandemic” by developing vaccines. Indeed, the former president is very upset that the Johnson and Johnson vaccines have been suspended in the United States of America and elsewhere:

The FDA made an awful decision to temporarily pull back Johnson & Johnson coronavirus vaccine distribution, Former President Donald Trump shared with "Hannity" in an exclusive interview on Monday.

"I think it’s very suspect as what they did with Johnson & Johnson," he said. "Because the only people that are happy about that are Pfizer and Moderna… What they did is a terrible, terrible thing."

The J&J vaccinations were paused after reports of blood clots in patients began to surface. According to the CDC, this side effect is "extremely rare" which supports Trump’s argument that the FDA may be playing favorites.

"Pfizer is in with the FDA," he exposed. "And what the FDA did with Johnson & Johnson is so stupid… They paused it. That’s the worst thing you could’ve done from a public relations standpoint."

"They love Pfizer," he continued. "They get along with Pfizer so well."

Trump pointed out that the Pfizer vaccine was ready for distribution before the election, under the supervision of Operation Warp Speed, yet the company waited to announce its arrival to market until two days after Election Day. He said bureaucrats in the FDA were "very slow" in the process.

The former president reflected on the beginnings of the race to a vaccine and said he pushed the FDA and health care leaders like Dr. Anthony Fauci for a quicker timeline on development and distribution.

"We got it done in less than nine months. It would’ve taken minimum three years," he said. "I don’t think they ever would’ve had a vaccine." (Trump Says FDA Pausing Johnson and Johnson Vaccine was Terrible.)

What is terrible is that the former president of the United States of America bought into the plandemic agenda, part of which was to make it more possible for him to be defeated in his bid for re-election, and then made possible the unnecessary deaths and injuries of so many innocent human beings. Truth is not whatever Donald John Trump says it is any more than it is whatever Anthony Fauci says it is. And the plain truth is that the vaccines developed under Operation Warp Speed are designed to produce transhumans, which was a goal championed by none other than the biological and theological evolutionist named Father Teilhard de Chardin, S.J. (See "Then there’s the “Christian” version of transhumanism, especially that of French archeologist Jesuit Fr. Teilhard de Chardin, who openly advocated for “designer babies;" see, e.g., Teilhard de Chardin and Designer Babies." Other links provided by Dr. Dianne N. Irving to her email list containing information on transhumanism can be found in Appendix A below.)

Here is another tragic story concerning the resumed Johnson and Johnson vaccination:

A Virginia man suffered a rare reaction to a COVID-19 vaccine that caused a painful rash to spread across his entire body and skin to peel off, doctors said.

Richard Terrell, 74, of Goochland began suffering strange symptoms four days after receiving the one-dose Johnson & Johnson vaccine, news station WRIC reported.

“I began to feel a little discomfort in my armpit and then a few days later I began to get an itchy rash, and then after that I began to swell and my skin turned red,” Terrell told the outlet.

But soon the rash covered his entire body, Terrell said.

“It all just happened so fast. My skin peeled off,” Terrell told the outlet.

“It was stinging, burning and itching. Whenever I bent my arms or legs, like the inside of my knee, it was very painful where the skin was swollen and was rubbing against itself,” he continued.

He went to the emergency room at the hospital, where doctors determined that he had experienced an adverse reaction to the vaccine, WRIC reported.

“We ruled out all the viral infections, we ruled out COVID-19 itself, we made sure that his kidneys and liver was okay, and finally we came to the conclusion that it was the vaccine that he had received that was the cause,” Dr. Fnu Nutan told the outlet.

She said that the medical episode could have been life-threatening if left untreated.

“Skin is the largest organ in the body, and when it gets inflamed like his was, you can lose a lot of fluids and electrolytes,” Nutan told the outlet.

Still, Nutan emphasized that such reactions are extremely rare.

“If you look at the risk for adverse reaction for the vaccine it’s really, really low,” she said. “We haven’t seen a great concern at all. I am a big proponent of the vaccine.” (Virginia Man’s Skin Peeled Off in Reaction to the Johnson and Johnson Covid Vaccination.)

Perhaps it would be useful to explain that the “vaccination adverse” reporting systems in various countries, including the United Kingdom and the United States of America, are not accurately recording the deaths and injuries caused by the various vaccinations being administered at this time under “emergency” authorization procedures just as they had previously exaggerated the numbers of those killed by the CCP/Wuhan/China/Chinese/Covid-19/Coronavirus last year, 2020.

Here is a case from the United Kingdom:

I HAVE just logged on to enter a patient with a fatal flare-up of malignant melanoma (originally diagnosed and surgically excised in 2014) manifesting as a suspected stroke with unilateral arm paralysis at the end of February, exactly one month after the patient’s first dose of the AstraZeneca coronavirus jab. This is the sixth Yellow Card report I have made in a month.

It seems entirely plausible to me, from a biological perspective, that natural tumour-suppressing activity of our lymphatic cells (NK cells and various classes of T Cell) could be temporarily suppressed by the surge of spike protein induced by the vaccine. As this is a new class of drug, which was rushed to market at breakneck speed, it is my clinical instinct that we should err on the side of over-caution as regards reporting observational anomalies or potential adverse reactions. With this week’s news that Denmark and other countries have suspended the use of the AstraZeneca vaccine, this approach seems even more sensible.

As a doctor with more than three decades of experience, this observational practice defines a long tradition of proper science.
But just how accurate and usable is the adverse event Yellow Card reporting system in the UK? Given the highly experimental nature of the Covid-19 vaccine, was due diligence given to making sure those rolling it out, and indeed those receiving it, were well versed in this system of reporting?

I have noticed that young doctors I work with are rather perversely trained not to respond to their instincts and clinical observations. The strict and immovable hierarchy within the NHS quickly instructs them that in this environment, the squeaky wheel definitely does not get the grease. It may find itself rolled out of the door, never to return. Working in a sector with only one potential employer, viz the NHS, this is not a risk many young medics would be prepared to take.

Using the MHRA (Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency) reporting system for adverse effects following the vaccine is a shockingly unlikely thing to happen among hospital doctors where I work. From many discussions I have had over the years, I know that this is also the case in various hospitals where colleagues work. None have had any training in using the online system and many seem surprised to learn of its existence.

The net result is that many adverse events do not get reported by medics. Most are not even noticed. There is no tradition of timelining the appearance of a problem and remarking any possible connection to the vaccine. Because the mantra ‘vaccines are safe’ is so embedded, both societally and medically, most in the medical fraternity struggle to envisage that a vaccine could have deleterious effects past the first 15 minutes of being injected. There is a collective spirit of self-censorship with respect to the Covid-jabs in particular. It is disquieting to say the least.

Members of the public, as well as healthcare professionals, are free to lodge a Yellow Card event at this site. Has every person getting the jab received clear instructions on how to do this? Did every individual really receive the information necessary to give informed consent? In a world where patient safety was the primary objective, this would be a bare minimum for an entirely novel medical product, particularly when being rolled out to millions of people at once. Were care home managers educated on the reporting system and trained in observing changes and possible symptoms? From enquiries made to care home managers, it seems this did not happen.

It is also possible to lodge an event on behalf of a relative you care for, or for an elderly relative who cannot perhaps navigate the labyrinthine online reporting system. When making the report, you can register so that any future reporting you do may be accessible by putting in your email and password to bring up the reporting system. However, you may lodge a report without doing this.

The online form is poorly designed. I know numerous computer-literate clinical colleagues who find it time-consuming and cumbersome. For something as simple as a headache one has to choose from 50 different types of headache. For insulin, 20 types. Such systems need to be simple and slick to avoid further unnecessary blocks for busy medics.

The issues cited above are reflected in the fact that adverse effects have been reported for only 0.3 per cent of Pfizer vaccinations and 0.5 per cent of AstraZeneca vaccinations. In their phase 1 and 2 trials, adverse events were reported at least 100 times more often (Pfizer 84 per cent pain, 63 per cent fatigue; AstraZeneca 50 per cent moderate symptoms). With these kind of percentages slipping through the cracks, it seems that the entire reporting system is in dire need of an overhaul. (United Kingdom Doctors are failing to record bad reactions to Covid jabs.)

The notorious source of disinformation in the United States of America, the Centers for Disease Control, is similarly underreporting adverse reactions to the various vaccinations that have been approved for “emergency use” during the plandemic even though it had inflated the numbers of those said to have died from the CCP/Wuhan/China/Chinese/Covid-19/Coronavirus. The following information, taken from the March 5, 2021, and March 11, 2021, weekly reports of adverse reactions to the vaccines being administered at thi time are thus quite revealing as these reports document a number of deaths caused by one or another of the vaccines that the “authorities” have not examined and/or will not admit as having been caused by adverse reactions to the vaccines because they are afraid that such information would feed into what they call “vaccine disinformation” and thus discourage people from “getting the jab”:

Data released today by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) on the number of injuries and deaths reported to the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS) following COVID vaccines remain consistent with previous weeks, with the exception of a 31% spike in reports of Bell’s Palsy.

Every Friday, VAERS makes public all vaccine injury reports received by the system as of Friday of the previous week. Today’s data show that between Dec. 14, 2020, and March 5, a total of 31,079 total adverse events were reported to VAERS, including 1,524 deaths — an increase of 259 over the previous 7 days — and 5,507 serious injuries, up 1,083 over the same time period.In the U.S., 85.01 million COVID vaccine doses had been administered as of March 5.

VAERS is the primary mechanism for reporting adverse vaccine reactions in the U.S. Reports submitted to VAERS require further investigation before a causal relationship can be confirmed.

This week’s 31% increase in reports of Bell’s Palsy marks a break with past trends. Otherwise, today’s data reflect trends that have emerged since The Defender first began tracking VAERS reports related to COVID vaccines.

This week’s VAERS data show:

Of the 1,524 deaths reported as of March 6, 30% occurred within 48 hours of vaccination, and 46% occurred in people who became ill within 48 hours of being vaccinated.
Nineteen percent of deaths were related to cardiac disorders.
Fifty-three percent of those who died were male, 45% were female and the remaining death reports did not include gender of the deceased.
The average age of those who died was 77.9 and the youngest death confirmed was a 23-year-old.
As of March 5, 265 pregnant women had reported adverse events related to COVID vaccines, including 85 reports of miscarriage or premature birth. None of the COVID vaccines approved for Emergency Use Authorization (EUA) have been tested for safety or efficacy in pregnant women.
There were 1,689 reports of anaphylaxis, with 59% of cases attributed to the Pfizer-Bio-N-Tech vaccine and 41% to Moderna.

The first Johnson & Johnson COVID vaccine was administered in the U.S. on March 2. As of March 5, two adverse events related to the vaccine had been reported to VAERS. Both occurred in young people, and the reactions included tongue tingling and numbness, hot flashes, headache and extreme fatigue.

On March 10, The Defender reported the death of a 39-year-old woman who died four days after receiving a second dose of Moderna’s COVID vaccine. Kassidi Kurill died of organ failure after her liver, heart and kidneys shut down. She had no known medical issues or pre-existing conditions, family members said. An autopsy was ordered, but Dr. Erik Christensen, Utah’s chief medical examiner, said proving vaccine injury as a cause of death almost never happens.

Last month The Defender reported that a 58-year-old woman died hours after getting her first dose of Pfizer’s COVID vaccine. State and federal officials said they were investigating her death but did not perform an autopsy. A public records request revealed emails between State Health Commissioner Normal Oliver and public information officers that suggest officials were “concerned the death of Keyes, who is Black, could worsen vaccine hesitancy among minorities,” reported The Virginian Pilot.

State officials refused to answer how medical examiners could thoroughly rule out other potential causes of death triggered by or linked to the shot without an internal examination of the body.

The family was forced to get their own private autopsy. Keyes’ daughter said that even before state officials had her mother’s postmortem preliminary test results, the medical examiner’s office told her they would not perform an autopsy. They told her “nothing could be gleaned from an autopsy that would relate the vaccine to her death.”

On March 11, Denmark, Norway and Iceland announced they were joining other European countries in temporarily suspending use of the AstraZeneca-Oxford COVID vaccine following reports of blood clots in people who got the vaccine, The Defender reported. The Danish decision came days after Austrian authorities suspended a batch of AstraZeneca’s COVID vaccine while investigating the death of one person and the illness of another after receiving the shots. The same batch used in Austria was used in Denmark, according to Reuters.

On March 9, Australian Health Minister Greg Hunt was hospitalized two days after taking AstraZeneca’s COVID-19 vaccine. He received antibiotics and fluid. A link to the vaccine was ruled out, reported Reuters.

The AstraZeneca vaccine has not been cleared by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration for Emergency Use Authorization, but the drugmaker said last week it plans to apply soon.

Meanwhile, Pfizer is gearing up to protect itself from any financial risk associated with vaccine injuries in those countries where, unlike in the U.S., there are no laws in place to indemnify the vaccine maker against liability for injuries.

As reported by The Defender on March 9, Pfizer is demanding countries put up sovereign assets as collateral for expected vaccine injury lawsuits resulting from its COVID-19 inoculation after Argentina rejected Pfizer’s request to enact legislation indemnifying the company from liability for injuries. Pfizer wanted Argentina and Brazil to guarantee the company would be compensated for any expenses resulting from injury lawsuits against it.

Pfizer demanded Brazil waive sovereignty of its assets abroad in favor of Pfizer, not apply its domestic laws to the country, not penalize Pfizer for vaccine delivery delays and exempt Pfizer from all civil liability for COVID vaccine side effects. Brazil rejected Pfizer’s demands, calling them “abusive.”

Nine other South American countries have reportedly negotiated deals with Pfizer. It’s unclear whether they actually ended up giving up national assets in return.

In the U.S., vaccine makers already enjoy full indemnity against injuries occurring from this or any other pandemic vaccine under the PREP Act. COVID vaccine injury claims are filed with the Countermeasures Injury Compensation Program (CICP), which is funded by U.S. taxpayers. The CICP is administered within the Department of Health and Human Services, which also sponsors the COVID-19 vaccination program.

On March 8, the CDC released new guidelines on how those “fully vaccinated” against COVID could gather with others. According to CNN, the level of precautions taken are determined by the characteristics of unvaccinated people. Fully vaccinated people can visit with other vaccinated people indoors without masks or social distancing, and can visit indoors with unvaccinated people from a single household without masks or physical distancing if the unvaccinated people are at low risk for severe disease.

Children’s Health Defense asks anyone who has experienced an adverse reaction, to any vaccine, to file a report following these three steps. (Vaccine Adverse Effects Report System and Deaths Caused by the Coronavirus Gene Therapy Treatments—Vaccines.)

Data released today by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) on the number of injuries and deaths reported to the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS) following COVID vaccines showed 38,444 reports of adverse events since Dec. 14, 2020.

On March 8, The Defender contacted the CDC with questions about how the agency is investigating reports of deaths and injuries after COVID vaccines. We provided a written list of questions asking the status of investigations on deaths reported in the media, if autopsies are being done, the standard for determining whether an injury is causally connected to a vaccine and the known issues with VAERS — namely whether healthcare providers are reporting all injuries and deaths that might be connected to the COVID vaccine, and what education initiatives are in place to encourage and facilitate proper and accurate reporting. We asked for a reply within two days.

As of today, 11 days later, the CDC has not answered our questions. Instead, when we call them, they respond saying, “they have received our email, they will escalate it and it is in the system.” When we asked if we could speak with the person reviewing the email, we were told that information could not be provided. When we emailed them to follow up, we received no response.

Every Friday, VAERS makes public all vaccine injury reports received by the system as of Friday of the previous week. The 34,444 adverse events reported between Dec. 14, 2020, and March 11 include 1,739 deaths and 6,286 serious injuries.

This week’s data included reports of 478 cases of Bell’s Palsy. Of those, 66% of cases were reported after Pfizer-BioNTech vaccinations — almost twice as many as reported (36%) following vaccination with the Moderna vaccine.

The first Johnson & Johnson (J&J) COVID vaccine was administered in the U.S. on March 2. As of March 11, nine anaphylactic reactions associated with J&J’s vaccine had been reported to VAERS. As The Defender reported earlier this month, the J&J vaccine contains polysorbate 80, known to trigger allergic reactions, The Moderna and Pfizer vaccines contain polyethylene glycol (PEG), also known to trigger anaphylactic reactions.

In the U.S., 98.2 million COVID vaccine doses had been administered as of March 11.

From the 3/11/2021 release of Vaers data.

VAERS is the primary mechanism for reporting adverse vaccine reactions in the U.S. Reports submitted to VAERS require further investigation before a causal relationship can be confirmed.

For the most part, today’s data reflect trends that have emerged since The Defender first began tracking VAERS reports related to COVID vaccines:

This week’s VAERS data show:

Of the 1,739 deaths reported as of March 11, 30% occurred within 48 hours of vaccination, 21% occurred within 24 hours, and 46% occurred in people who became ill within 48 hours of being vaccinated. By comparison, during the same period, there were only 85 deaths reported following flu vaccines.
Nineteen percent of deaths were related to cardiac disorders.
Fifty-three percent of those who died were male, 44% were female and the remaining death reports did not include gender of the deceased.
The average age of those who died was 77.9 and the youngest death was an 18-year-old.
As of March 11, 289 pregnant women had reported adverse events related to COVID vaccines, including 90 reports of miscarriage or premature birth. None of the COVID vaccines approved for Emergency Use Authorization has been confirmed safe or effective for pregnant women, although J&J said earlier this month it would begin testing on pregnant women, infants and the immunocompromised.
There were 1,689 reports of anaphylaxis, with 59% of cases attributed to the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine and 41% to Moderna.

The average age of death reported remains 77.9, however the youngest reported death this week dropped from 23 to 18. According to VAERS, the teenager developed fatigue, body aches and a headache one day after receiving the Moderna vaccine on March 3. On March 5 he complained of chest pain, and died in his sleep later that day.

The latest data also includes the report of a 22-year-old woman with a “significant, lifelong underlying medical condition” who died 24 days after the vaccine.

According to the CDC’s website, “the CDC follows up on any report of death to request additional information and learn more about what occurred and to determine whether the death was a result of the vaccine or unrelated.”

To date, the only information the CDC has published related to the investigation of COVID vaccine-related deaths and how those investigations were conducted is a COVID-19 Vaccine Safety Update via the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) published on Jan. 27.

The safety update analyzed only the 198 reported deaths that occurred within the first month after the first COVID vaccine was administered in the U.S. It is unknown whether the CDC has investigated any of the 1,541 reported deaths since or, if investigations were conducted, what the results showed.

On March 16, The Defender reported that more than 20 countries suspended use of AstraZeneca’s COVID vaccine after reports of blood clots, some resulting in death, in healthy people who received the vaccine. The World Health Organization (WHO) said an ongoing analysis by its vaccines advisory committee had not established a causal link between the vaccine and blood clots and that countries should keep using it.

On March 18, the European Medicine Agency (EMA) released the results of its investigation into the AstraZeneca vaccine. The EMA said Thursday the vaccine “may be associated with very rare cases of blood clots,” but the agency still considers it to be “safe and effective” and countries should continue to use it.

The EMA determined AstraZeneca’s vaccine was not associated with an “overall risk” of blood clots in those vaccinated and there was no evidence of a problem related to specific batches of the vaccine or manufacturing sites, The Defender reported.

According to Reuters, about a dozen countries resumed use of AstraZeneca’s COVID vaccine today, including Germany, Indonesia and France as EU and British regulators said the benefits outweighed any risks of potential blood clots. AstraZeneca’s vaccine is not yet approved for emergency use in the U.S.

On March 18, The Defender reported Pfizer’s chief financial officer told analysts and investors during a recent earnings call that the company plans to turn its COVID vaccine with German company BioNTech into an even bigger cash cow once the pandemic ends.

Pfizer’s vaccine is already the second-highest revenue-generating drug in the world. The vaccine maker expects revenues of $15 billion in 2021 based on current contracts for its COVID vaccine, but that number could double as Pfizer says it can potentially deliver 2 billion doses this year.

Leaked documents obtained as a result of a cyberattack on the EMA and reviewed by The BMJ revealed regulators had major concerns over unexpectedly low quantities of intact mRNA in batches of the Pfizer’s COVID vaccine developed for commercial production, as reported this week by The Defender.

A leaked email identified “a significant difference in % RNA integrity/truncated species” between the clinical batches and proposed commercial batches — from around 78% to 55%. Pfizer was not manufacturing vaccines to the specifications expected, and the impact of this loss of RNA integrity on safety and efficacy of the vaccine was not identified, according to the email. The EMA responded by filing two “major objections” with Pfizer, along with a host of other questions it wanted addressed. It’s unclear if the agency’s concerns were satisfied.

Children’s Health Defense asks anyone who has experienced an adverse reaction, to any vaccine, to file a report following these three steps. (CDC Ingores Inquiries about Deaths and Injuries Caused by Covid Vaccines)

The contrast between last year’s rush to rule every death as being caused by the CCP/Wuhan/China/Chinese/Covid-19/Coronavirus and the refusal this year to acknowledge any possible link between the deaths and adverse reactions caused by the gene therapy “vaccines” is stunning. What is even more stunning is the boldness of Pfizer and other companies to expect the governments of other countries to indemnify them for what they know full well are the inevitable consequences of a rush to “follow the money” rather than to follow true science in the development of any pharmaceutical product, including the so-called “vaccines” today.

Sometimes, however, it is just not possible for the statists to ignore the obvious link between the vaccinations and the deaths of hundreds of people and injuries in thousands more. Several countries in Europe, as noted in the article quoted just above, banned the AstraZeneca vaccine because the link had become undeniable:

Denmark, Norway and Iceland today announced they are joining other European countries in temporarily suspending use of the AstraZeneca-Oxford COVID vaccine following reports of blood clots in people who got the vaccine.

Denmark suspended the shots until further notice after a 60-year-old woman died from a blood clot which formed after she was vaccinated, reported Reuters.

The Danish decision came days after Austrian authorities announced they were suspending a batch of AstraZeneca’s COVID vaccine while investigating the death of one person and the illness of another after receiving the shots. The same batch used in Austria was used in Denmark, according to Reuters.

In Austria, a 49-year-old woman died of severe coagulation disorders, and a 35-year-old woman developed a pulmonary embolism –– an acute lung disease caused by a dislodged blood clot –– and is recovering, said The Federal Office for Safety in Health Care (BASG) in Austria.

Austrian newspaper Niederoesterreichische Nachrichten, broadcaster ORF and the APA news agency reported that both women were nurses at the same clinic where the vaccine batch was used.

In a statement provided to Reuters, AstraZeneca said the safety of its vaccine had been extensively studied in human trials and that peer-reviewed data had confirmed the vaccine was generally well tolerated.

Earlier this week, AstraZeneca reported “no confirmed serious adverse events associated with the vaccine” during trials and said it was working with Austria in its investigation.

Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania and Luxembourg have suspended all or part of their AstraZeneca vaccine roll-out as a precaution while they investigate concerns related to blood clots, reported France 24.

According to Reuters, Italy announced it banned a batch of the AstraZeneca COVID vaccine following the deaths of two men who had recently been vaccinated. One man was a 43-year-old naval officer who died after a suspected heart attack the day after his shot. The second man, a 50-year-old policeman, fell ill within 24 hours of his injection, never recovered and died 12 days after being vaccinated. Both men had received shots from AstraZeneca’s ABV2856 batch.

As of March 10, 30 cases of thromboembolic events had been reported to EudraVigilance, the system for managing and analyzing information on suspected adverse reactions to medicines which have been authorized or are being studied in clinical trials in the European Economic Area.

As The Defender reported today, 12 prominent doctors and scientists are demanding that EU regulators address seven critical safety issues relating to the AstraZeneca, Pfizer and Moderna COVID vaccines, or withdraw approval of the vaccines for use in the EU.

The UK government is meanwhile urging people to “still go and get their COVID-19 vaccine,” stressing the suspension in multiple countries “is a precautionary measure,” reported EuroNews.

The UK’s Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency also urged people to still get vaccinated, as it had not been confirmed that the COVID vaccine caused the blood clot in the woman in Denmark.

On March 2, The Defender reported that government data showed 43% more reports of injuries related to the AstraZeneca-Oxford vaccine in the UK, including 77% more adverse events and 25% more deaths compared to the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine.

Britain’s regulator, the Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency (MHRA), runs YellowCard, which is the nearest British equivalent to the Vaccine Adverse Events Reporting System or VAERS in the U.S.

The MHRA expressed no concern about the number of reports of adverse events connected with AstraZeneca’s COVID vaccine.

“The problem with spontaneous reports of suspected adverse reactions to a vaccine are the enormous difficulty of distinguishing a causal effect from a coincidence,” Stephen Evans, professor of pharmacoepidemiology at the London School of Hygiene & Tropical Medicine told France 24.

Last month two regions in Sweden temporarily halted AstraZeneca COVID vaccinations after 400 people received the vaccine and 100 people experienced adverse reactions leaving them unable to work. Another region observed a surprising number of side effects after a mass vaccination effort of more than 500 people, reported The Defender.

South Africa halted the roll-out of AstraZeneca’s COVID vaccine due to low efficacy in February, and European countries France, Germany and Sweden reported more side effects from the AstraZeneca COVID vaccine than from the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine.

The World Health Organization approved the AstraZeneca-Oxford COVID vaccine for emergency use last month, despite growing safety concerns in other countries and questionable clinical trials.

AstraZeneca’s COVID vaccine has not yet been approved for use in the U.S. but the drugmaker plans to file for Emergency Use Authorization with the U.S Food and Drug Administration in the upcoming weeks pending the results of a clinical trial, according to CBS News. (Europen Union Countries Pause AstraZeneca Vaccine.)

Meanwhile, relatives of a doctor in Poland, who was noted for his mocking vaccine skeptics, say he died just nineteen days after being vaccinated with one of the “emergency authorization” vaccinations:

WARSAW, Poland, March 12, 2021 (LifeSiteNews) — A Polish doctor who was filmed mocking COVID-19 vaccine skeptics as he was inoculated died 19 days after getting his shot.

Dr. Witold Rogiewicz of the OVI (VIP) Infertility Treatment Center in Warsaw received two shots: one on January 4, and the second on January 26. As he took the second inoculation, Rogiewicz made jokes at the expense of “anti-vaxxers,” COVID-19 and 5G skeptics, and people with autism. The video of his message has been published widely in Polish online media and on social media.

“Get vaccinated to protect yourself, your relatives, friends, and patients, too,” the gynecologist advised in Polish.

“Just to mention, I also have information for the anti-vaxxers and COVID skeptics; if you would like to get in contact with Bill Gates, you can do it through me. I can also lend you the 5G network in my body,” he continued, presumably referring to rumors that Gates funded projects to link vaccine records to a “tattoo” or microchip and those saying that China’s 5G network spreads the virus.

The doctor then took aim at Dr. Andrew Wakefield’s controversial theory that autism in children might be caused by the MMR (measles, mumps, and rubella vaccine). “Pardon me if I didn’t say something there for a moment, but I was just coming down with autism,” Rogiewicz said.

The doctor died of heart failure, just over two weeks later, on February 15. His fellow clinicians posted a notice saying that he had died, expressing their shock and sorrow and offering condolences to Rogiewicz’s family. The fertility clinic’s website also bears the lightning symbol of Poland’s pro-abortion movement in the top right-hand corner.

The story of the gynecologist who poked fun at those who oppose vaccines while being vaccinated, and died shortly thereafter, made the rounds of Polish social media. Critics of Poland’s COVID-19 vaccination program connected his death to his inoculation. However, Rogiewicz’s daughter denied that he had died from the vaccine.

“Over 2,000 comments about what happened appeared under the post about Dad’s death: that he mocked anti-vaxxer[s], and he himself died after being vaccinated,” Małgorzata Rogiewicz told Polish Newsweek magazine last month. “Dad had problems with his heart for many years, and he died suddenly of a cardiac arrest.”

“His death had nothing to do with getting the second dose of the vaccine,” she claimed.

Rogiewicz stated that her father had felt fine after receiving the second shot, and that she herself had been vaccinated. “There were no side effects for either me or my dad,” she insisted. (Polish Doctor Who Mocked Vaccne Skeptics Died Nineteen Days after Being Vaccinated.)

Obviously, we are supposed to believe that Dr. Rogiewicz died of “natural causes” that were entirely unrelated to his being poisoned by the vaccination he received.

This is somewhat reminiscent of the old story of a Texas sheriff about a century ago who ruled that victim’s death by a shotgun blast to his heart was “a clear case of suicide.”

Perhaps one of the most unusual side-effects of the “vaccines” has been hallucinations that, the vaccine manufacturers assure us, are signs that the vaccines are “doing their job”! You cannot make any of this up:

(CBS4) – As more people get vaccinated, doctors are learning about new and unusual side effects. CBS4 Medical Editor Dr. Dave Hnida said they are related to a response from the body’s immune system during his weekly question and answer session on CBSN Denver.

“We all know the usual ones, a sore arm, some aches and pains, fatigue,” he explained. “Fortunately severe side effects are very, very uncommon, maybe two-tenths of one percent out of all the millions of vaccines that have been given.”

the country. One of these weird side effects is called "nickel mouth." This happens when patients experience a taste of coins in their mouth within minutes of getting their vaccine. It is believed to be an immune response, according to KCNC Medical Editor Dr. Dace Hnida. Another weird side effect discovered is people having vivid dreams about space. “Flying to the moon, planting the flag on the moon. Even somebody going out and taking Abraham Lincoln to get a Big Mac and having the staff want him to autograph the bills," Dr. Hnida said. While unusual, the side effects are just an immune response and are only temporary. The dreams may be caused by the temporary interruption in sleep cycles caused by the vaccine.

Dr. Hnida said a pattern is starting to emerge of what he called some really weird side effects that can be explained but not predicated.

“They include things like ‘Moderna arm’ which should be called ‘COVID arm,’ first seen in people who received the Moderna vaccine but now it’s across the board with all the vaccines.

“What happens here is about five to seven days after you are vaccinated, you get this rash and it can down your whole arm, the arm you were vaccinated in. It’s an itchy rash and you think, ‘Oh my gosh, what is going on here?’ It really is just a delayed reaction from your immune system.”

Dr. Hnida says it clears up on its own within five to seven days.

He also addressed “nickel mouth” or “metal mouth.”

“People, literally within in a couple of minutes of getting their vaccine to a day or so after, just taste like they’ve got a lot of coins in their mouths, a really metallic taste.”

It also impacts how food and beverages taste and, again, is believed to be an immune system response.

Vivid dreams, especially ones about space, are also reported as a side effect. Those include “Back To The Future” dreams filled with hovercrafts and hover cars.

“Flying to the moon, planting the flag on the moon. Even somebody going out and taking Abraham Lincoln to get a Big Mac and having the staff want him to autograph the bills. We really think it has something to do with the immune response. They are temporary.”

Dr. Hnida said it’s believed the response to the vaccine may interrupt sleep cycles, especially the REM cycle where we dream.

He also said anyone who has filler injections, like in their lips, should be aware of a possibility of swelling after the vaccination.

“I think the bottom line, if you have anything weird going on, the most important thing to know is you’re not alone and they are generally not of great concern. Certainly if you do something unusual and you are worried about it, talk to your doctor for more information.” (Vaccine Side-Effects Include Dreams of Abraham Lincoln Orering a Big Mac, Back to the Future, and Space Travel.)

How is this not an indication of an experiment gone wrong?

How can these hallucinations prove that the “vaccines” are doing their “job,” unless their job is to reprogram the human mind?

We are living a world filled with denial of the truth and a castigation of those who speak the truth as deniers of science. This is a world of relativism, a world of positivism, a world of medical-scientific-technocratic oligarchies who are united in their commitment to make it possible for people to deny the Sovereignty of God over the sanctity and fecundity of marriage, kill those babies who do get conceived while developing within the sanctuaries of their mothers’ wombs, justify infanticide for babies who survive efforts to kill them before birth, use the medical industry’s manufactured, profit-making myth of “brain death” to kill off people for their vital bodily organs and/or because they have outlived their “usefulness,” starve and dehydrate brain-damaged people who are no nearer death than any one of us, and use “palliative care”/hospice as the pretext to engage in what is simply a disguised form of euthanasia. The oligarchs in such a world must put an end to all opposition by whatever means necessary:

Over the last two weeks, Facebook and other social media sites have deplatformed me and many other critics of regulatory corruption and authoritarian public health policies. So, here is some fodder for those of you who have the eerie sense that the government/industry pandemic response feels like it was planned — even before there was a pandemic.

The attached document shows that a cabal of powerful individuals did indeed begin planning the mass eviction of vaccine skeptics from social media in October 2019, a week or two before COVID began circulating. That month, Microsoft founder Bill Gates organized an exercise of four “table-top” simulations of a worldwide coronavirus pandemic with other high-ranking “Deep State” panjandrums. The exercise was referred to as Event 201.

Gates’ co-conspirators included representatives from the World Bank, the World Economic Forum (Great Reset), Bloomberg/Johns Hopkins University Populations Center, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, various media powerhouses, the Chinese government, a former Central Intelligence Agency/National Security Agency director (there is no such thing as a former CIA officer), vaccine maker Johnson & Johnson, the finance and biosecurity industries and Edelman, the world’s leading corporate PR firm.

At Gates’ direction, these eminences role-played members of a Pandemic Control Council, wargaming government strategies for controlling the pandemic, the narrative and the population. Needless to say, there was little talk of building immune systems, off-the-shelf remedies or off-patent therapeutic drugs and vitamins, but lots of chatter about promoting uptake of new patentable antiviral drugs and vaccines.

But the participants primarily focused on planning industry-centric, fear-mongering, police-state strategies for managing an imaginary global coronavirus contagion culminating in mass censorship of social media.

Oddly, Gates now claims that the simulation didn’t occur. On April 12, 2020, Gates told BBC, “Now here we are. We didn’t simulate this, we didn’t practice, so both the health policies and economic policies, we find ourselves in uncharted territory.”

Unfortunately for that whopper, the videos of the event are still available across the internet. They show that Gates and team did indeed simulate health and economic policies. It’s hard to swallow that Gates has forgotten.

Gates’s Event 201 simulated COVID epidemic caused 65 million deaths at the 18-month endpoint and global economic collapse lasting up to a decade. Compared to the Gates simulation, therefore, the actual COVID-19 crisis is a bit of a dud, having imposed a mere 2.5 million deaths “attributed to COVID” over the past 13 months.

The deaths “attributed to COVID” in the real-life situation are highly questionable, and must be seen in the context of a global population of 7.8 billion, with about 59 million deaths expected annually. The predictions of decade-long economic collapse will probably prove more accurate — but only because of the draconian lockdown promoted by Gates.

Gates’ Event 201 script imagines vast anti-vaccine riots triggered by internet posts. The universal and single-minded presumption among its participants was that such a crisis would prove an opportunity of convenience to promote new vaccines, and tighten controls by a surveillance and censorship state.

Segment four of the script — on manipulation and control of public opinion — is most revealing. It uncannily predicted democracy’s current crisis:

The participants discussed mechanisms for controlling “disinformation” and “misinformation,” by “flooding” the media with propaganda (“good information”), imposing penalties for spreading falsehoods and discrediting the anti-vaccination movement.
Jane Halton, of Australia’s ANZ Bank, one of the authors of Australia’s oppressive “no jab, no pay” policy, assured the participants that Gates Foundation is creating algorithms “to sift through information on these social media platforms” to protect the public from dangerous thoughts and information.
George Gao, the prescient director of the Chinese Center for Disease Control, worries about how to suppress “rumors” that the virus is laboratory generated: “People believe, ‘This is a manmade’… [and that] some pharmaceutical company made the virus.”
Chen Huang, an Apple research scientist, Google scholar and the world’s leading expert on tracking and tracing and facial recognition technology, role-plays the newscaster reporting on government countermeasures. He blames riots on anti-vaccine activists and predicts that Twitter and Facebook will cooperate in “identify[ing] and delete[ing] a disturbing number of accounts dedicated to spreading misinformation about the outbreak” and to implement “internet shutdowns … to quell panic.”
Dr. Tara Kirk Sell, a senior scholar at Bloomberg School of Health’s Johns Hopkins Center for Health Security, worries that pharmaceutical companies are being accused of introducing the virus so they can make money on drugs and vaccines: “[We] have seen public faith in their products plummet.” She notes with alarm that “Unrest, due to false rumors and divisive messaging, is rising and is exacerbating spread of the disease as levels of trust fall and people stop cooperating with response efforts. This is a massive problem, one that threatens governments and trusted institutions.”

Sell reminds her fellow collaborators that “We know that social media is now the primary way that many people get their news, so interruptions to these platforms could curb the spread of misinformation.” There are many ways, Sell advises, for government and industry allies to accomplish this objective: “Some governments have taken control of national access to the Internet. Others are censoring websites and social media content and a small number have shut down Internet access completely to prevent the spread of misinformation. Penalties have been put in place for spreading harmful falsehoods, including arrests.”

Matthew Harrington, CEO of Edelman Public Relations agrees that social media must fall in line to promote government policy: “I also think we’re at a moment where the social media platforms have to step forward and recognize the moment to assert that they’re a technology platform and not a broadcaster is over. They in fact have to be a participant in broadcasting accurate information and partnering with the scientific and health communities to counterweight, if not flood the zone, of accurate information. Because to try to put the genie back in the bottle of misinformation and disinformation is not possible.”
Stephen Redd, the Admiral of the Public Health Service, has the sinister notion that government should mine social media data to identify people with negative beliefs: “I think with the social media platforms, there’s an opportunity to understand who it is that’s susceptible … to misinformation, so I think there’s an opportunity to collect data from that communication mechanism.”
Adrian Thomas of Johnson & Johnson announces “some important news to share from some of “our member companies [Pharma]”: We are doing clinical trials in new antiretrovirals, and in fact, in vaccines!” He recommends a strategy to address the problems to these companies when “rumors were actually spreading” that their shoddily tested products “are causing deaths and so patients are not taking them anymore.” He suggests, “Maybe we’re making the mistake of reporting and counting all the fatalities and infections.”
Former CIA deputy director, Avril Haines unveiled a strategy to “flood the zone” with propaganda from “trusted sources,” including “influential community leaders, as well as health workers.” He warns about “false information that is starting to actually hamper our ability to address the pandemic, then we need to be able to respond quickly to it.”
Matthew Harrington (Edelman CEO) observes that the Internet — which once promised the decentralization and democratization of information — now needs to be centralized: “I think just to build a little bit on what Avril said, I think as in previous conversations where we’ve talked about centralization around management of information or public health needs, there needs to be a centralized response around the communications approach that then is cascaded to informed advocates, represented in the NGO communities, the medical professionals, et cetera.”
Tom Inglesby (John Hopkins biosecurity expert advisor to the National Institutes of Health, the Pentagon and Homeland Security) agrees that centralized control is needed: “You mean centralized international?”
Matthew Harrington (Edelman) replies that information access should be: “Centralized on an international basis, because I think there needs to be a central repository of data facts and key messages.”
Hasti Taghi (Media Advisor) sums up: “The anti-vaccine movement was very strong and this is something specifically through social media that has spread. So as we do the research to come up with the right vaccines to help prevent the continuation of this, how do we get the right information out there? How do we communicate the right information to ensure that the public has trust in these vaccines that we’re creating?”
Kevin McAleese, communications officer for Gates-funded agricultural projects, observes that: “To me, it is clear countries need to make strong efforts to manage both mis- and disinformation. We know social media companies are working around the clock to combat these disinformation campaigns. The task of identifying every bad actor is immense. This is a huge problem that’s going to keep us from ending the pandemic and might even lead to the fall of governments, as we saw in the Arab Spring. If the solution means controlling and reducing access to information, I think it’s the right choice.”
Tom Inglesby, director of Bloomberg’s Johns Hopkins Center for Health Security concurs, asking if “In this case, do you think governments are at the point where they need to require social media companies to operate in a certain way?”

Lavan Thiru, Singapore’s Finance Minister suggests that the government might make examples of dissidents with “government or enforcement actions against fake news. Some of us, this new regulations are come in place about how we deal with fake news. Maybe this is a time for us to showcase some cases where we are able to bring forward some bad actors and leave it before the courts to decide whether they have actually spread some fake news.”

Read the attached transcript to see how Gates and his government, pharma and intelligence apparatus telegraphed their plans to censor and control the media during the pandemic. In yet another uncanny coincidence, COVID-19 began circulating among global populations within days of Gates’ meeting. (Bill Gates Planned Social Media Censorship.)

We must use our Catholic reasoning to see lies for what they are and then to resolve to have nothing to do with them ever again as the adversary is indeed prowling about the world looking for souls to deceive and then to devour.

Perhaps the biggest deception of them all in the past thirteen months is the massive fear of a virus that has a miniscule chance of killing most people while that which kills the soul, sin, continues unabated and even completely indemnified by the civil state. The irony of this, of course, is that sin worsens not only the state of individual souls but of entire nations themselves.

Yes, sin is far more dangerous than the coronavirus.

III. Vaccine “Safety”

The facts of the harm caused by the various vaccines provided above means nothing to the governmental officials who have a professional and, in all too many cases, financial stake in their continued marketing and administration as they continue to indoctrinate the masses about the nonexistent “safety” of what is, in the case of the Pfizer BioNTech and Modern vaccines, actually a gene therapy “jab” rather than a vaccine.

An examination of the facts contained in the article below will reveal that all manner of foreign bodies are put into vaccines even though such foreign matter contains properties that can do serious damage to the human body:

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) claims that vaccines “use only the ingredients they need to be as safe and effective as possible.” The star of the show in any vaccine is the “active” ingredient, which is the one designed to create an antibody response.

But the other, supposedly “inactive” ingredients — known as excipients — also play significant, and in many cases risky, co-starring roles.

Studies of licensed vaccines have identified many problems with these secondary ingredients — adjuvants like aluminum, preservatives like thimerosal and stabilizers like gelatin — not to mention highlighting the presence in vaccines of residual DNA from cell lines used in the manufacturing process as well as disclosed and undisclosed contaminants.

With the advent of three experimental COVID injections approved for emergency use in the U.S., manufacturers have introduced new primary ingredients to the U.S. vaccine stage — messenger RNA (mRNA) in the Pfizer and Moderna injections and an adenovirus vector in the Johnson & Johnson (J&J) injection.

Not only that, but vaccine makers have bundled these new primary ingredients with “inactive” excipients in unprecedented ways — polyethylene glycol (PEG) in the case of the mRNA vaccines and polysorbate 80 in the J&J shot.

PEGs and polysorbates are structurally similar and are also sometimes combined in a PEG-polysorbate 80 mixture that is “substantially the same as that of … pure PEG.” Pre-COVID, both compounds had already been flagged for their ability to cross-react and produce immediate hypersensitivity reactions, a type of “exaggerated or inappropriate” immune response that can include anaphylaxis.

Given that at least 1,689 recipients of the Pfizer and Moderna injections have reported anaphylactic or serious allergic reactions (as of March 5), and that two J&J clinical trial participants also suffered severe allergic reactions, some allergy experts are recommending that closer attention be directed to the risks of both excipients.

Hypersensitivity to structurally similar excipients

Children’s Health Defense has written extensively about the risks of PEG, the coating for the lipid nanoparticle RNA delivery system in the Pfizer and Moderna injections. Two recent studies echo some of the concerns we raised.

Writing in The New England Journal of Medicine (NEJM) in February, physician-researchers Mariana Castells (Brigham and Women’s Hospital) and Elizabeth Phillips (Vanderbilt University) note that “no other vaccine that has PEG as an excipient has [ever] been in widespread use” until COVID. The two authors then zero in on the evidence linking PEG to anaphylaxis, suggesting that it may represent a “hidden danger.”

In fact, leading Food and Drug Administration (FDA) official Peter Marks acknowledged in December that PEG could be the “culprit” responsible for anaphylaxis observed following COVID vaccination.

Although Castells and Phillips state that the anaphylaxis risks of adenoviral-vectored vaccines formulated with polysorbate 80 — vaccines like J&J’s — are “currently unknown,” Phillips and other Vanderbilt colleagues published a paper in mid-2019 (in the Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology: In Practice) that reported a startling discovery, namely that “Immediate hypersensitivity to polyethylene glycols and polysorbates” is “more common than we have recognized.”

In that paper, Phillips and her colleagues also warned their fellow allergists that the similarities between polysorbates and PEGs may produce cross-reactive hypersensitivity that is likely “under recognized in clinical practice.”

Unlike the PEGs making their debut as vaccine excipients, polysorbate surfactants (polysorbate 80 or polysorbate 20) are already present in numerous licensed vaccines — including vaccines with diphtheria-tetanus-pertussis components, hepatitis A and B vaccines, vaccines against influenza and rotavirus, meningococcal and pneumococcal vaccines, shingles injections and Gardasil 9.

Disturbingly, nearly all of these vaccines list anaphylaxis and anaphylactoid reactions as documented adverse events in their package inserts, although the inserts offer no explanation or even speculation about the specific triggering agent(s).

The use of polysorbate 80 in vaccines also raises other potential concerns that have not attracted sufficient attention, including the compound’s ability to cross the blood-brain barrier and potential evidence of carcinogenic activity in animal studies.

The mysteries of sensitization

Allergic sensitization is a complicated affair that even allergists do not fully comprehend, and there are ongoing questions about the mechanism of sensitization to PEGs (and, by implication, to polysorbates).

In their 2019 paper, Phillips and co-authors describe two case studies involving recurrent exposures to medical products relying on PEG excipients (colonoscopy preparations and corticosteroids), also describing occupational exposure from glycol-containing hydraulic fluids. In both instances, these exposures resulted in cross-reactivity to polysorbates.

In his final exposure to PEG, the first patient lost consciousness, “knocking a hole in the drywall with his head,” and after experiencing plummeting blood pressure of 60/20 spent a night in the emergency room. Subsequent skin testing showed positivity to polysorbate-80-containing products ranging from a corticosteroid (triamcinolone acetonide) and eye drops to a pneumococcal vaccine.

The scenario was similar for the second patient, who became dangerously hypotensive following PEG exposure, ended up in the emergency room and had a positive allergy skin test to the same polysorbate-containing corticosteroid.

Both case studies hint at one of the central problems with PEGs and polysorbates: They are everywhere, potentially offering numerous opportunities for sensitization. For example, PEGs are used in drugs, cosmetics, personal care items such as toothpaste and shampoo, bowel preparations for colonoscopy and as a food additive.

As a result of industry’s pervasive reliance on PEGs, approximately 72% of contemporary samples of human blood analyzed in 2016 revealed detectable and sometimes high levels of anti-PEG antibodies — with 8% displaying extremely elevated levels strongly associated with anaphylaxis.

No comparable study seems to be available for polysorbates, but a 2005 study drew attention to polysorbate 80 as “a ubiquitously used solubilizing agent that can cause severe nonimmunologic anaphylactoid reactions” and described its “current relevance as a ‘hidden’ inductor” of such reactions.

In addition to their presence in vaccines, the FDA allows polysorbates’ direct use in foods (“as adjuvants of flavoring agents or as multipurpose additives”) and also permits an “indirect” food additive role.

Examples of these food uses include as an emulsifier in ice cream and other frozen desserts, as a “solubilizing and dispersing agent” in pickles and as a “defoaming agent” for cottage cheese. The cosmetics and personal care industries make liberal use of polysorbates in skin products and makeup.

Phillips’ 2019 paper includes a medication excipient review. In the review, the authors identify 1,155 FDA-approved medications containing PEG 3350 (one type of PEG) as an active or inactive ingredient, most commonly in “film coated tablets, topical gels, and parenteral [intravenous or injected] steroids.”

In addition, about six times as many FDA-approved medications (N=6,821) contain polysorbate 80 (as either an active or inactive ingredient), mostly in the same types of products as well as in vaccines.

Recommendations ignored

CDC officials maintain that anaphylaxis following COVID vaccination is a “rare event,” but Castells and Phillips, in their 2021 NEJM paper, report that “the incidence of anaphylaxis associated with the Pfizer SARS-Cov-2 mRNA vaccine appears to be approximately 10 times as high as the incidence reported with all previous vaccines.”

They also note that “preexisting sensitization to a component of the vaccine” (such as a PEG or polysorbate excipient) could account for the types of reactions being observed.

Importantly, they not only recommend that patients who have experienced anaphylaxis after a Pfizer or Moderna injection avoid any further exposure to PEG-formulated mRNA vaccines, but also that such individuals avoid “all PEG and injectable polysorbate 80 products.”

Disturbingly, the CDC is ignoring this prudent recommendation. Au contraire — making no mention of the issue of potential PEG-polysorbate cross-reactivity, the CDC, according to a March 1 CNBC report, says “that people who have an allergic reaction to the first dose of either the Pfizer or Moderna vaccine could get the J&J vaccine instead.”

On its webpage providing “Information about COVID-19 vaccines for people with allergies,” the CDC tells people who have had a severe or immediate allergic reaction to “any ingredient in an mRNA COVID-19 vaccine” not to get the Pfizer or Moderna vaccines, and warns individuals who have had a severe or immediate allergic reaction to any ingredient in J&J’s COVID vaccine not to get that injection.

Allergy expert Scott Commins at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill endorses the J&J shot as “safe for the overwhelming majority of people with food or environmental allergies.” While conceding that polysorbates are associated with “very rare allergic reactions,” Commins states that because they are so common, “people with sensitivity to polysorbate may already know.”

However, the remarks of an individual who commented on a January STAT news report about vaccine-related allergic reactions illustrate the difficulty that members of the public may have in sorting through these complexities:

“I have stage 4 carcinoid cancer, medically induced diabetes, asthma … I want to take vaccine but have had mild to anaphylactic reaction to meds. Some like Contrast dye with iodine suddenly developed severe reaction after decades of no issues. Had terrible reaction to flu vac yrs ago … I don’t know which meds contain polysorbate or polyethylene glycol to know if I’m allergic to ingredients in vaccine.”

Writing in late January, a month before the FDA’s Emergency Use Authorization of the J&J COVID vaccine, the American Academy of Allergy Asthma & Immunology (AAAAI) stated that there is “no consensus” on how to evaluate a patient’s history of severe reactions to PEGs or polysorbates in advance of vaccination, but noted that “some would argue that [skin] testing to the vaccine is required.”

Although not foolproof (false negatives are possible), skin testing for PEG and polysorbate by an allergist can be informative for people who are uncertain of their allergy status. Some healthcare facilities are now offering such testing.

The AAAAI adds, “If skin testing is positive the individual is not a candidate for the currently available mRNA vaccines,” also stating that skin testing for polysorbate reactivity could become important should the J&J vaccine enter into general use.

Alarmingly, the media are fostering the perception that J&J’s vaccine is “allergy free,” even going so far as to state that “clinics may not need to watch patients for severe reactions for 15 minute after getting the shot.”

Even more sobering, Castells and Phillipps remind us that the uber-healthy individuals typically studied in clinical trials “may not reflect a predisposition to adverse events that may exist in other populations.”

Only time will tell whether the individuals taking J&J’s COVID injection because they believe it to be “allergy free” have been steered in a safe direction. (Inactive Ingredients in Covid Vaccines Produce Allergic Reactions. Please see Amount of Aluminum in Infant Vaccines Akin to a Lottery, Researchers Say for a review of the amount of aluminum contained in the various panoply of vaccines given to infants.)

Time has told the tale, which is why the Federal government “paused” the Johnson and Johnson vaccine. However, the “pause” was short-lived ad the same “regulators” who paused the Johnson and Johnson vaccine lifted it despite all the people who have died or been injured after receiving the vaccine. We are supposed to believe that the “benefits” outweigh the risks:

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and the Food and Drug Administration said Friday that vaccine providers should resume their use of the Johnson and Johnson jab — after the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices recommended it was safe to do so.

The CDC and the FDA said J&J’s one-dose shot should be made available again at vaccine sites after reviewing data showing it will help save lives and prevent hospitalizations despite the risk of extremely rare — but potentially deadly — blood clots.

Earlier Friday, the APIC voted 10-4 with one abstention that the benefits associated with the vaccine outweigh the risks and said the drug can get back into arms without a new warning label about the rare potential for blood clots.

The J&J shot has been on pause since last week after six women under the age of 48 developed a rare form of blood clots after they were inoculated, including one who died.

An examination of more than seven million vaccinations brought that number to 15, including three deaths, the panel said.

Five patients were discharged and seven remain hospitalized.

Thirteen of the cases occurred in women between the ages of 18 and 49 while two occurred in females over 50.

No cases were found in men, except for one that occurred during J&J’s clinical trial.

While troubling, the numbers represent a minuscule amount given that more than 7 million people received the J&J vaccine — leading APIC to believe it is safe for use for anyone over the age of 18.

The CDC and the FDA have advised patients and doctors on what to look for should symptoms associated with the blood clots arise within three weeks of vaccination — including severe headaches, abdominal pain, leg pain, or shortness of breath.

Doctors have already been advised on how the condition should be treated, which is with different medications than those typically used for the condition.

The White House said earlier Friday they have nine million doses of the vaccine ready to go as soon as the CDC and FDA give the green light, CNN reported. (Food and Drug Administration and Centers for Disease Control rule Johnson and Johnson Vaccine Pause Can be Lifted.)

In other words, they are making this up as they go along even though the April 16, 2021, documentation on the Centers for Disease Control's Vaccine Adverse Reactions website indicates that there are two more women who have died from blood clots caused by the Johnson and Johnson vaccine:

Data released today by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) on the number of injuries and deaths reported to the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS) following COVID vaccines showed a notable increase in reports of injuries and deaths compared with last week’s numbers.

VAERS is the primary government-funded system for reporting adverse vaccine reactions in the U.S. Reports submitted to VAERS require further investigation before a causal relationship can be confirmed.

Every Friday, VAERS makes public all vaccine injury reports received as of a specified date, usually about a week prior to the release date. Today’s data show that between Dec. 14, 2020 and April 16, a total of 86,080 total adverse events were reported to VAERS, including 3,186 deaths — an increase of 584 over the previous week — and 10,152 serious injuries, up 1,867 since last week:
