COVID-19 not responsible for "explosion" in heart deaths. Major autopsy study shows "must be the vaccine"

human heart
Since the early days of the pandemic there has been a concern that SARS-CoV-2 infection in humans could cause heart inflammation and thus cardiac injury and death. A number of observational studies have appeared to show increased heart problems following infection, though the observational nature of these studies has led to criticism they are confounded and unreliable. Other studies have not found an increase in heart problems following Covid infection and have established that myocarditis was not above baseline in 2020.

Now the lack of relationship between COVID-19 and heart inflammation has been confirmed in a systematic review of 50 autopsy studies covering 548 hearts of patients who died of or with COVID-19. While around two thirds of the hearts had SARS-CoV-2 found in the tissue, none had extensive myocarditis as the cause of death. Top heart doctor Peter McCullough comments on the study - which was published last year - that it "should be the nail in the coffin in ruling out COVID-19 illness as a cause of fatal myocarditis".

"Despite the virus being found in heart tissue, it was not causing significant inflammation," he said.

Expert calls for vitamin B test on dementia patients following meta-analysis showing supplementation is three-times as effective as any drug

All patients suspected of dementia should be tested for vitamin B insufficiency, a leading expert says. Professor David Smith, former Chair of Pharmacology and Deputy Head of the Division of Medical Sciences at Oxford University says patients with early age-related memory loss should be checked for B vitamin and omega 3 levels with a simple blood test.

If levels are inadequate, patients should be prescribed supplements of B6, B12 and B9 (folic acid) together with omega 3 fats which when combined have been shown to slow or halt cognitive decline.

Dozens of families damaged by AstraZeneca jab launch legal fight

Around 30 million doses of the Oxford/AstraZeneca vaccine have been administered in the UK
Dozens of patients and families whose lives have been damaged by extremely rare reactions to the Oxford/AstraZeneca covid vaccine have launched legal action against the pharmaceutical company.

While the vaccine is widely credited with protecting many millions of people from the virus, 81 patients died and 364 suffered severe reactions, some of them resulting in catastrophic injuries as a result of blood clots caused by the jab. Legal action is now being taken against AstraZeneca by the families of 19 people who died after being vaccinated and 54 patients who suffered severe reactions but survived.

Strokes, paralysis and repeated blood clots are among the symptoms of those who suffered very rare but severe reactions to the vaccine. Many have gone from being fit and healthy to being left struggling to walk and talk, with little hope of getting better.


Comment: Severe reactions to the covid vaccines are anything but rare. This is the case moreso with mRNA "vaccines" although we may have seen more had AstraZeneca been more widely adopted vs Pfizer/Moderna.


The latest NHS advice is that Covid-19 vaccination is safe and effective and that it gives people the best protection against Covid-19. NHS advice states: "Anyone who gets Covid-19 can become seriously ill or have long-term effects. The Covid-19 vaccines are the best way to protect yourself and others."

Myocarditis spiked 130% in US military in 2021, new data show

military vaccine vaccination
The rate of myocarditis spiked 130% in the U.S. military in 2021, newly disclosed data show. The Epoch Times has the story.
Diagnoses of myocarditis, a form of heart inflammation, jumped 130.5% in 2021 when compared to the average from the years 2016 to 2020, according to data from the Defense Medical Epidemiology Database (DMED).

The data were downloaded by a whistleblower and presented to Sen. Ron Johnson (R-Wis.).

Myocarditis is a serious condition that can lead to death.

Vaccine-makers prep bird flu shot for humans 'just in case'

Some of the world's leading makers of flu vaccines say they could make hundreds of millions of bird flu shots for humans within months if a new strain of avian influenza ever jumps across the species divide.

One current outbreak of avian flu known as H5N1 clade 2.3.4.4b has killed a record number of birds and infected mammals. Human cases, however, remain very rare, and global health officials have said the risk of transmission between humans is still low.

Executives at three vaccine manufacturers — GSK, Moderna and CSL Seqirus, owned by CSL — said they are already developing or about to test sample human vaccines that better match the circulating subtype, as a precautionary measure against a future pandemic.

Others, like Sanofi, said they "stand ready" to begin production if needed, with existing H5N1 vaccine strains in stock.

There has also been a push among companies to develop a bird flu vaccine for poultry, a market potentially far larger than that for humans.

Comment: Human guinea pigs undergoing untested inoculations bode another masked 'vaccine for profit', thus another culling of humanity. Statistics do not back the necessity.

Pfizer, CDC withheld evidence of myocarditis after COVID shots, new documents reveal

myocarditis
Pfizer and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) withheld evidence that COVID-19 vaccinations led to an increased risk of myocarditis, especially in young males, according to two sets of documents made public this week.

Confidential Pfizer documents leaked Thursday by Project Veritas show the company had "evidence that suggests patients who receive a COVID-19 vaccine are at an increased risk of myocarditis."

And heavily redacted CDC documents obtained by Children's Health Defense (CHD) via a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request indicate the agency provided an undercounted figure of post-COVID-19-vaccination myocarditis cases to Israel's Ministry of Health in early 2021.

Polio outbreak in Burundi caused by oral vaccine - ABC News

burundi polio outbreak
An outbreak of vaccine-induced polio has been declared by Burundian health officials, marking the first time the paralyzing disease has been detected in the East African nation in more than three decades, ABC reported.

A four-year-old child in western Burundi who had not been vaccinated and two other children who had come into contact with the child have all tested positive for polio, the Burundi government confirmed in a statement on Friday.

It was determined that the virus that caused the children to become ill was a mutated strain of polio originally contained in the oral polio vaccine.

Comment: This effect was known about as far back as December 2019 - and reported on by The Scientist - and still nothing was done to stop it: New oral polio vaccine to BYPASS key clinical trials as vaccine caused outbreaks overtake wild polio

Did the ivermectin ban cost lives?

ivermectin
It appears that we live in a reality where doctors are censored and early treatments such as ivermectin are banned, apparently to ensure public confidence in the government's vaccine rollout is not undermined.

AHPRA and National Boards threatened doctors with regulatory action on March 9, 2021 if they made any statements that 'undermined public confidence in the vaccination rollout'. The TGA [Therapeutic Goods Administration] also banned ivermectin's use for the prevention or treatment of Covid in September 2021 because, according to the TGA, if people had access to it they may not get vaccinated. Are we seeing a trend?

In whose interests are decisions really being made? Ivermectin is safe, cheap, fully approved, and has been shown effective in the prevention and treatment of Covid, as will be demonstrated.

Report linking fluoride to lower IQ in children made public after CDC, HHS tried to block it

fluride
The National Toxicology Program (NTP) on Wednesday released a draft report linking prenatal and childhood fluoride exposure to reduced IQ in children, after public health officials tried for almost a year to block its publication.

The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) initially blocked the NTP from releasing the report, according to emails obtained via a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request.

But a court order stemming from a lawsuit filed by Food and Water Watch against the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) forced the report's release this week.
