Wall Street Journal- Damar Hamlin’s On-Field Collapse Was Due to Cardiac Arrest, Bills Say

It couldn’t possibly be this?

Francisco- Too early to tell for sure what the cause was but it sure makes one wonder.

It also needs to be pointed out that a lot of the same people who are now advocating a “wait and see” attitude were wishing death and destruction on those who had similar thoughts and feelings about the -Magic Juice™- not that long ago.

Alex Berenson:

A group of German scientists released the research as a preprint in July, but it attracted little notice until Science Immunology formally published it on Dec. 22. It is not clear if the new interest comes because the paper has passed peer review or because Covid’s continued surge is troubling researchers.

Like many other scientists, the German researchers measured anti-spike-protein antibodies that people produce after Covid vaccination. Both mRNA and DNA jabs cause the body’s cells to produce spike proteins like those on the surface of the coronavirus.

Those proteins then cause the immune system to make antibodies – Y-shaped proteins which attach to pieces of the spikes. In the case of a real coronavirus infection, the vaccine-generated antibodies stick to the surface spikes on the coronavirus and keep it from attaching to our cells.

Confirming hundreds of similar studies, the German researchers found that levels of a crucial antibody called Immunoglobulin G, or IgG, rose dramatically after the second and third mRNA doses. Those increased antibodies have been the triumph of the mRNA vaccines.

Then the German scientists took a step other researchers had not.

The Effect of the COVID-19 Vaccine on the Menstrual Cycle Among Reproductive-Aged Females in Saudi Arabia

Overall, the changes in the menstrual cycles after both COVID-19 vaccine doses were observed among 46.7%, mainly more menstrual pain in 22.9% following the first dose compared with 21.4% after the second. Menstrual changes were observed among almost two-thirds of women in the age groups 18-22 years (65.2%) and 38-45 years (65.4%) compared with only 43.5% of those in the age group 23-27 years, p<0.001. The Moderna vaccine was associated with the highest rate of menstrual changes (65.4%), whereas Oxford-AstraZeneca was associated with the lowest rate (44.9%), p=0.040. The duration of changes in the cycles after the COVID-19 vaccine (one dose or both) was less than one month among 42.5% of females, whereas it was three months or more among 27.1%.

Nobody knows why, but this is of no concern whatsoever.

Australia;

Former federal MP Dr Kerryn Phelps has revealed she and her wife both suffered serious and ongoing injures from Covid vaccines, while suggesting the true rate of adverse events is far higher than acknowledged due to underreporting and “threats” from medical regulators.

In an explosive submission to Parliament’s Long Covid inquiry, the former Australian Medical Association (AMA) president has broken her silence about the “devastating” experience — emerging as the most prominent public health figure in the country to speak up about the taboo subject.

“This is an issue that I have witnessed first-hand with my wife who suffered a severe neurological reaction to her first Pfizer vaccine within minutes, including burning face and gums, paraesethesiae, and numb hands and feet, while under observation by myself, another doctor and a registered nurse at the time of immunisation,” the 65-year-old said.

“I continue to observe the devastating effects a year-and-a-half later with the addition of fatigue and additional neurological symptoms including nerve pains, altered sense of smell, visual disturbance and musculoskeletal inflammation. The diagnosis and causation has been confirmed by several specialists who have told me that they have seen ‘a lot’ of patients in a similar situation.”

Judicial Watch announced yesterday;

…that it had obtained records from a FOIA lawsuit against the Food and Drug Administration, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, and the National Institute for Allergy and Infectious Disease. The entities had failed to respond to a FOIA request filed in June of 2021 regarding “the biodistribution studies and related data for the Pfizer, Moderna and Johnson& Johnson COVID vaccines.”

Judicial Watch said that the records contained information…

…regarding data Moderna submitted to the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) on its mRNA COVID-19 vaccine, which indicate a “statistically significant” number of rats were born with skeletal deformations after their mothers were injected with the vaccine. The documents also reveal Moderna elected not to conduct a number of standard pharmacological studies on the laboratory test animals.

Moderna submitted a Nonclinical Overview to the FDA to have its vaccine approved. Included in that overview was information that rats born to mothers that had been given the mRNA vaccine had skeletal abnormalities that included conditions such as “rib nodules” and “wavy ribs.” Moderna said the conditions were not considered “adverse.”

Autopsy-based histopathological characterization of myocarditis after anti-SARS-CoV-2-vaccination

Through our autopsy-based approach, we identified five cases of lymphocytic (epi-)myocarditis in persons, who were unexpectedly found dead at home within the first week following mRNA-mediated anti-SARS-CoV-2 immunization. According to the Dallas criteria four samples were classified as definitive myocarditis. In the remaining case, comparable inflammatory infiltration of the epicardium, subepicardial fat and myocardium was found, but myocardial infiltration did not exceed the threshold of the Dallas criteria. All cases showed a consistent phenotype: (A) focal interstitial lymphocytic myocardial infiltration, in three cases accompanied by demonstrable microfocal myocyte destruction. (B) T-cell dominant infiltrate with CD4 positive T-cells outnumbering CD8 positive T-cells by far; (C) frequently associated with T-cell infiltration of epicardium and subepicardial fat tissue revealing a similar immune phenotype (CD4 >  > CD8).

el gato malo;

…the media/info police/propogandist agents and agencies have moved to a proactive stance of putting out obvious idiocy comingled with ideas they want to suppress to try to discredit the whole. (this is a very effective technique and one they have discussed openly) it’s a specific and potent form of misinformation that does an excellent job of discrediting true facts by linking them associatively with flagrant and unpopular falsehoods. when used widely it rapidly generates a bewildering “tinsel” effect that leaves people disoriented and having no idea what to believe. the KGB loved this stuff. now it’s a menu offering at PR and “crisis management” firms. it’s especially potent as pre-prep where you try to get in front of an idea that is emerging and hijack it before it can gain currency by linking the info you fear to a bunch of easily disproven twaddle and/or unpopular/hate speech so that it has to fight this baggage when trying to make a first impression. i will call this form of misinformational manipulation “mis-association.”

[…]

and so we land in the middle of what’s going on now and this is a moment to become more, not less critical, a moment to assess more deeply and not succumb to confirmation bias just because your side is winning because that’s how you torpedo yourself, squander hard won credibility, and fall prey to the misinformational maestros using mis-association to render you mis-calibrated (or at least misperceived as so being.)

josh does great work here talking about the new “documentary” called “died suddenly.”

Read them both, and then be alert to this persuasion technique — a twist on hiding a lie within twenty truths.

Telegraph;

Pfizer’s CEO has been rapped by the UK’s pharmaceutical watchdog for making “misleading” statements about children’s vaccines, The Telegraph can disclose. 

Dr Albert Bourla used an interview with the BBC last December to claim that “there is no doubt in my mind that the benefits, completely, are in favour of” vaccinating youngsters aged five to 11 against Covid-19. 

He argued that “Covid in schools is thriving” adding: “This is disturbing, significantly, the educational system, and there are kids that will have severe symptoms.”

The interview was published on Dec 2 – before the vaccine had been approved by Britain’s medical regulator for this age group.  Continue reading →

JTN;

More than a year after the FDA added heart inflammation warnings to COVID-19 mRNA vaccines — amid the second academic year of campus vaccine mandates on a demographic at higher risk of severe adverse events — vaccine makers are finally studying the long-term consequences of vaccine-induced myocarditis and pericarditis.

Moderna already has two trials running, while Pfizer said its first trial will start “in the next couple months” and include up to 500 teenagers and young adults under 21, NBC News reported last week. Neither has disclosed the studies on their websites.

The CDC isn’t much further ahead in studying long-term post-vaccination harm. In late September, the agency started contacting people who meet the case definition of myocarditis and have been reported to the Vaccine Adverse Events Reporting System.

While an “independent entity” should be reviewing long-term consequences, it’s “puzzling” why Pfizer and Moderna waited so long to follow through on the FDA’s approval conditions, said MIT professor Retsef Levi, lead author of a study on post-vaccination “emergency” heart problems in 16-39 year-olds in highly vaccinated Israel.
