Did Canada destroy Pfizer + Moderna vials to hide evidence?!

Is Canada destroying Pfizer and Moderna COVID-19 vaccine vials to hide evidence of a crime?! Take a look at the viral claims, and find out what the facts really are!

Claim : Canada is destroying Pfizer + Moderna vials to hide evidence!

Some people are suggesting that Canada is now destroying all vials of the Pfizer and Moderna mRNA vaccine for COVID-19, in an effort to hide evidence of some kind of crime.

William Makis MD : BREAKING NEWS: COVID-19 Vaccine Clinics across Canada have been ordered to destroy all vials of Pfizer & Moderna COVID-19 mRNA Vaccines! My urgent message to all who have access: DO NOT RETURN OR DESTROY any Vaccine vials, they are priceless! Hide them

Dr David Cartland : Burn the evidence 🔥

COVID-19 vaccine clinics across Canada have been instructed to dispose of all vials of Pfizer and Moderna mRNA vaccines.

Ontario Alliance : As Ontario COVID-19 vaccine clinics & others across Canada have now been ordered by Health Canada & Public Health Agency of Canada to withdraw & destroy of all vials of Pfizer & Moderna mRNA vaccines ... we realize they are now just trying hard to destroy the evidence for any future legal or political ramification & retribution, just like when Ford Tories said they would lock up Wynne Liberals after 15 years of government corruption & gross mismanagement, Premier Doug the Thug did nothing other than repeat the same & do worse

Lee Golden : BREAKING Burn the evidence 🔥 C19 vax clinics across Canada have been instructed to dispose of all vials of Pfizer and Moderna mRNA vaxxes!

Truth : Canada is not destroying Pfizer + Moderna vials to hide evidence!

This appears to be yet another example of fake news about the COVID-19 vaccines, and here are the reasons why...

Fact #1 : Canada is replacing current COVID-19 vaccines with newer versions

First, let me start by pointing out that Canada is just withdrawing the current COVID-19 vaccines to make way for newer versions.

On 27 August 2024, the Public Health Agency of Canada (PHAC) issued a memo (PDF) stating that it has ordered a market withdrawal of all COVID-19 XBB vaccines in Canada, in order to facilitate the approval of the newer KP.2 vaccines from Pfizer and Moderna.

This is because Health Canada will remove the strain identifier - XBB / KP.2, etc. so that the COVID-19 vaccines it approves in the future will have one drug identification number (DIN), presumably to avoid confusing people who might be wondering if they are getting the latest COVID-19 vaccine.

In short - Canada is withdrawing the current COVID-19 vaccines to make way for the newer COVID-19 vaccines that offer better protection against the current COVID-19 strains.

Fact #2 : Three COVID-19 vaccines are being replaced

Canada isn't just withdrawing and replacing the Pfizer and Moderna COVID-19 vaccines. Canada is also withdrawing and replacing the Novavax COVID-19 vaccine, which is known as Nuvaxovid.

As mentioned above - Canada is withdrawing ALL of its currently approved COVID-19 vaccines (which target the XBB.1.5 strain), to replace with newer COVID-19 vaccines that will target the KP.2 strain.

Fact #3 : Canada expects new KP.2 vaccines in late September 2024

As the memo explained, the Canadian National Advisory Committee on Immunization has recommended that people wait for the new KP.2 formulation of COVID-19 vaccines that offer better protection against the newer COVID-19 strains that are circulating now, compared to the earlier XBB formulation.

While the current COVID-19 vaccines are no longer available starting 1 September, the new KP.2 vaccines from Pfizer, Moderna, and Novavax, are expected to be approved and distributed in late September 2024.

Fact #4 : British Columbia continues to provide COVID-19 vaccines

While the Public Health Agency of Canada has ordered the market withdrawal of current XBB.1.5 COVID-19 vaccines, it is allowing each province and territory the "flexibility" to transition to the newer vaccines (source).

British Columbia, for example, will make the current XBB.1.5 vaccines available until the new KP.2 vaccines are approved. On the other hand, Manitoba has stopped giving out doses of the current XBB.1.5 vaccine, but will consider giving them to patients who request, on a case-by-case basis.

Dr. Brian Conway, the medical director of the Vancouver Infectious Diseases Centre, says that British Columbia's decision to continue providing doses of the XBB vaccine is a "reasoned" approach:

If you really need a shot now for a medical reason, this is still a very good vaccine that has good cross-protection against the currently circulating strain.

This clearly shows that there is nothing wrong with the current XBB.1.5 vaccines, whether they are from Pfizer, Moderna, or Novavax. At least one province continues to provide them, while at least one more province will provide them on request.

Are 3 doses of Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine safe for babies?

Leave a reply

The CDC just recommended 3 doses of the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine for babies 6 months and older – is that safe? Here is what you need to know…

Are 3 doses of Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine safe for babies?

The Children’s Health Defense, which is chaired by Robert F. Kennedy Jr., just posted an article (archive) which claims or suggests that it might not be safe for babies to receive 3 doses of the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine because it’s unlicensed for children under 12.

There Are No Licensed COVID Vaccines for Kids Under 12 — But CDC Wants Babies to Get 3 Pfizer Shots by Age 9 Months

According to the latest CDC guidance, 9-month-old babies must receive multiple doses of an unlicensed mRNA COVID-19 vaccine to be considered “up to date” with their COVID-19 vaccination.

Nine-month-old babies must receive multiple doses of an unlicensed mRNA COVID-19 vaccine to be considered “up to date” with their COVID-19 vaccination, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).

The CDC’s updated guidance, issued Aug. 30, states that children — as young as 6 months old — should get either two doses of the 2024-2025 Moderna vaccine or three doses of the 2024-2025 Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine.

If getting the new Pfizer shot, the baby is supposed to receive the first dose at 6 months, the second dose three weeks later and the third dose at least eight weeks after the second dose — meaning, that by 9 months old, babies are supposed to have received three Pfizer shots.

Children’s Health Defense (CHD) CEO Mary Holland told The Defender, “The earlier COVID shots have been proven unsafe and ineffective. Now we’re asked to believe that newer versions are miraculously safe and effective?”

“This is an insult to people’s intelligence,” she said, “I pray that parents will have the good sense to say no to these dangerous and unnecessary shots for babies.”

As of July 28, 37,814 deaths following COVID-19 vaccination had been reported to VAERS, the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System, run by the FDA and CDC.

Show less

It has since been shared and promoted as evidence that the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine is dangerous for babies.

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. : The CDC recommends THREE Pfizer Covid shots for babies by age 9 months. These shots are unsafe and ineffective, especially over the long term. And babies are at near-zero risk from Covid. So whose benefit is the CDC serving here?

Liz Churchill : This is murder.

Mary Talley Bowden : All babies are expected to get 3 C0VID shots before their 1st birthday.

Eliminating mandates is not enough.
All risk, no benefit.
Profits over safety.
Any other product would have been pulled off the market a long time ago.

Show less

CDC : 3 doses of Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine are safe + effective for babies

In this article, I will go through some of their points, and show you what the facts really are!

Fact #1 : FDA authorised Pfizer COVID-19 vaccines for babies

First, let’s start by pointing out that the US FDA just authorised the latest, updated Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine, including for babies 6 months or older:

Unvaccinated individuals 6 months through 4 years of age are eligible to receive three doses of the updated, authorized Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 Vaccine or two doses of the updated, authorized Moderna COVID-19 Vaccine.

Individuals 6 months through 4 years of age who have previously been vaccinated against COVID-19 are eligible to receive one or two doses of the updated, authorized Moderna or Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccines (timing and number of doses to administer depends on the previous COVID-19 vaccine received).

In other words – there is nothing wrong with the CDC’s recommendation that the babies as young as 6 months old should receive 3 doses of the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine.

Fact #2 : FDA authorised two COVID-19 vaccines for babies

In fact, the US FDA actually authorised two COVID-19 vaccines for babies 6 months and older (archive):

Moderna COVID-19 Vaccine (2024-2025 Formula) for individuals 6 months through 11 years of age
Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 Vaccine (2024-2025 Formula) for individuals 6 months through 11 years of age

So why is Children’s Health Defense article focusing only on the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine? After all, the Moderna COVID-19 vaccine is also based on a similar mRNA platform.

Does this mean that Children’s Health Defense believes only the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine is dangerous for babies, but not the Moderna COVID-19 vaccine? Why only Pfizer, but not Moderna – they didn’t say.

In that case, well, just go ahead and opt for the Moderna COVID-19 vaccine! Problem solved for people who are hesitant about the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine for babies.

Fact #3 : EUA undergoes same approval process

In case you are wondering – the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine has full FDA approval for children and adults who are 12 years and older, and is authorised for emergency use in children between 6 months and 11 years of age.

This does not mean that the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine is dangerous or ineffective in children. After all, both EUA and full FDA approval undergo the same approval process, with this major difference in post-study follow-up:

EUA : At least half of the participants in the studies must be followed for at least two months after vaccination.
Full FDA Approval : All of the participants in the studies must be followed for at least six months.

In addition, full FDA approval requires more details on manufacturing plans and processes, as well as extra time for FDA to conduct oversight and inspections of manufacturing facilities.

You can read more about the differences between full FDA approval, and Emergency Use Authorisation (EUA) here.

Fact #4 : Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine was proven safe + effective for babies

As the Mayo Clinic points out, both the Pfizer and Moderna COVID-19 vaccines were tested to confirm their safety and effectiveness in children aged 6 months and older:

To find out the effectiveness of the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine for children ages 6 months through 4 and the Moderna COVID-19 vaccine for children ages 6 months through 17 years old, the FDA looked at the immune responses of children in these age groups after they were fully vaccinated.

The FDA compared those responses to the immune responses of young adults who’d been given higher doses of the same mRNA vaccine.

As with the other vaccines, side effects were recorded. Some of the children were monitored for safety for at least two months after being fully vaccinated.

So it would be false to suggest that the Pfizer or Moderna COVID-19 vaccine was never tested in babies as young as 6 months old.

Fact #5 : VAERS reports are unverified

The Children’s Health Defense article said that there were “37,814 deaths following COVID-19 vaccination had been reported to VAERS, the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System, run by the FDA and CDC.”

As I pointed out many times before, VAERS data is unverified, and notoriously susceptible to abuse, and false reporting. That’s because it’s an open system that anyone – not just doctors, can report anything they want.

In addition, the reports may be duplicated and have not been verified to be related to the vaccine or drug in question. That’s why VAERS specifically warns against using its reports to reach any conclusion about the risks or safety of vaccines / drugs in question.

But that is probably why anti-vaccination activists love using VAERS data – it’s unverified, and very susceptible to abuse and false reporting.

Did Queen’s Brian May suffer stroke from COVID-19 vaccine?!

Leave a reply

Did Queen guitarist Brian May just suffer a stroke from the COVID-19 vaccine?! Take a look at the viral claims, and find out what the facts really are!

Claim : Brian May suffered a stroke from COVID-19 vaccine!

Right after Brian May revealed that he suffered a minor stroke a week ago, some people immediately suggested that the Queen guitarist may have been injured by the COVID-19 vaccine.

The People’s Voice : Queen Guitarist Brian May, Who Promoted Covid Vaccines During Pandemic, Unable To Use Arm Following Stroke

Fully vaccinated and boosted Queen guitarist Brian May, who promoted the Covid-19 mRNA vaccines during the pandemic, has revealed he suffered a stroke earlier this week leaving him unable to use his arm.

Like many other vaccinated celebrities, he had news to share about a sudden and unexpected medical emergency.

Sudden And Unexpected : Fully vaccinated and boosted Queen guitarist Brian May, who promoted the Covid-19 mRNA vaccines during the pandemic, has revealed he suffered a stroke earlier this week leaving him unable to use his arm.

Lidiya Angelova : Brian May promoted so called COVID-19 vaccines. Stroke is a common adverse reaction to these gene products. The problem is that many innocent will die and get sick because listened to him.

Covid Vaccines were NEVER SAFE : Pfizer Covid 2021 Batch strikes again? Brian May suffers stroke. Same Brian May who pushed and promoted the experimental COVID vaccines.

Show less

Truth : Brian May did not suffer a stroke from COVID-19 vaccine!

It is now tradition for anti-vaccine activists to immediately blame all injuries or deaths on the COVID-19 vaccines.

Here are the reasons why this is yet another example of fake news about the COVID-19 vaccines…

Fact #1 : Brian May suffered from a minor stroke

On 27 August 2024, Sir Brian May (born Brian Harold May on 19 July 1947) mentioned that he suffered “a small health hiccup“, which forced him to miss his wife’s performance at the Albert Hall the night before.

On Wednesday, 4 September 2024, the Queen guitarist finally revealed that he had suffered a minor stroke, and was taken to Frimley Hospital in an ambulance.

That little health hiccup that I mentioned happened about a week ago and what they called it was a minor stroke.

All of a sudden, out of the blue, I didn’t have any control over this arm, so it was a little scary, I have to say.

Notably, Brian May was not diagnosed with Thrombosis with Thrombocytopenia Syndrome (TTS) – a rare side effect of the AstraZeneca COVID-19 vaccine.

Fact #2 : Brian May temporarily lost control of his arm

Brian May revealed that he suddenly lost control of his left arm. That is not one of the symptoms of TTS. May also said that he was now fine, and can play the guitar again with full control of his left arm.

The good news is that I can play guitar after the events of the last few days.

Fact #3 : TTS occurs soon after AstraZeneca COVID-19 vaccination

It is simply impossible for Brian May to suffer a blood clot from the AstraZeneca COVID-19 vaccine, because it would have occurred within days or weeks.

TTS, which is also known as Vaccine-induced Immune Thrombotic Thrombocytopenia (VITT), occurs soon after a person receives the AstraZeneca COVID-19 vaccine, and has a very specific diagnostic criteria:

Received the vaccine 4 to 42 days prior to symptom onset
Any venous or arterial blood clot (often cerebral or abdominal)
Low platelet count (thrombocytopenia) of less than 150 x 10⁹/L
Test positive for PF4 heparin-induced thrombocytopenia
Markedly elevated D-dimer (> 4x the upper limit of normal)

Now, we obviously do not have Brian May’s medical report, and we don’t know whether he actually received the AstraZeneca COVID-19 vaccine (instead of a different COVID-19 vaccine).

But we do know that the UK government stopped using the AstraZeneca COVID-19 vaccine in winter 2021. So even if Brian May received the AstraZeneca COVID-19 vaccine, it wouldn’t have caused TTS / VITT some 3 years later!

Fact #4 : COVID-19 blood clot risk is much higher

What you may not know is that COVID-19 infections greatly increases the risk of developing blood clots – up to 41% in positive patients, and up to 95% in severe COVID-19 cases.

Blood clots can also develop (through different mechanisms) with smoking and the use of oral contraceptive pills (OCP). Back in May 2021, we created this table to better demonstrate the risk:

	Risk	Difference
Thrombocytopenia in severe COVID-19 cases	Up to 95%	45,238X
Thrombocytopenia in COVID-19 cases	Up to 41%	19,524X
Dying from COVID-19 Infection	0.25% to 10%	119X to 4762X
Thrombosis from OCP (Adult)	Up to 0.46%	219X
Thrombosis from Smoking	0.18%	85.7X
Thrombosis from OCP (Adolescents)	Up to 0.01%	4.8X
Thrombotic Thrombocytopenia (AstraZeneca Vaccine)	0.0021%	Baseline

Did Japan warn COVID-19 vaccines cause population collapse?!

Leave a reply

Did Japan just warn that the COVID-19 vaccines are causing a global population collapse?! Take a look at the viral claim, and find out what the facts really are!

Claim : Japan warns COVID-19 vaccines cause population collapse!

People are sharing an article (archive) by The People’s Voice (formerly NewsPunch), which claims that Japan just warned that the COVID-19 vaccines are causing a global population collapse!

Here is an excerpt of the (intentionally?) rambling and confusing article. Feel free to skip to the next section for the facts!

Japan Warns COVID Vaccines Causing Global Population Collapse

Japan has issued a dire warning about the mRNA vaccines that were administered globally in late 2020 and declared “safe and effective.” According to Japanese scientists, these vaccines are safely reducing the global population and effectively collapsing populations.

The scientists, among the most respected in the world, also allege that international organizations such as the UN, along with multiple world governments, are involved in a massive cover-up to hide the full extent of this catastrophic loss of life.

According to the scientists, over one billion people have already perished, with many more deaths expected to follow.

Japan’s findings are redefining our understanding of the global depopulation crisis and highlighting the urgent need to hold those responsible for crimes against humanity accountable.

Kazuhiro Haraguchi, the Minister of Internal Affairs, has formally apologized to the Japanese nation, declaring “You were right, vaccines are killing millions of our loved ones.”

Japan understands that apologizes are not enough and the government and universities have ordered thousands of scientific researchers to investigate the vaccines from every possible angle.

The Covid mRNA task force is determined to fully understand the “crimes against humanity” perpetrated during the Covid pandemic specifically related to the roll out of experimental mRNA vaccines.

Show less

Truth : Japan did not warn COVID-19 vaccines cause population collapse!

This is yet another example of fake news created / promoted by The People’s Voice, and here are the reasons why…

Fact #1 : Japan did not warn about COVID-19 vaccines

Let me start by simply pointing out that the Japanese government has not issued any warning about the COVID-19 vaccines killing people, never mind causing a global population collapse.

If that actually happened, such a shocking news would have been widely reported by the mainstream media all over the world, and resulted in a mass outcry of outrage. Countries all over the world would also have stopped using COVID-19 vaccines, and launched their own investigations.

Yet, none of that happened. No report of population collapse anywhere in the world, no warning by the Japanese government, no outrage. Unsurprisingly, The People’s Voice article did not provide any evidence to back up its claim.

Fact #2 : Japan still recommends COVID-19 vaccines

If the Japanese government believes that the COVID-19 vaccines are killing people, and causing a global population collapse, it would have immediately stopped the use of the vaccines.

Yet, that did not happen. In fact, the Japanese Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare (MHLW) still recommends getting vaccinated and boosted against COVID-19, even for children 5-11 years in age!

Fact #3 : Japanese population has been declining for years

The truth is – Japan has been suffering from a declining population for over a decade – since 2010. That’s ten years before the COVID-19 vaccines were invented!

Japan’s declining population has nothing to do with COVID-19 vaccines. It’s being caused by a steady drop in birth rates. In fact, the number of new births have been falling for 8 straight years – from 2015 to 2023.

In 2023 – the fertility rate in Japan was only 1.3 – far below the fertility rate of 2.1 for a population to remain stable. In other words – the number of births in Japan cannot compensate the number of deaths, and it has resulted in a decline in the Japanese population.

This trend will continue for decades, even if Japanese families start having large families of 4-5 children right away. That’s because it will take a long time for those children to have children of their own, and start “correcting” the decline.

The Japanese government’s Institute of Population and Social Security Research (IPSS) projected in 2023 (PDF) that the population in Japan by fall 30% by 2070.

Fact #4 : One billion people did not die from COVID-19 vaccines

It’s preposterous to claim that over one billion people have already died from the COVID-19 vaccines.

There are just over 8.2 billion people in the world right now. It would mean that 1-in-8 people have already died. If such a tragedy did occur, virtually everyone would know several people who had died from the COVID-19 vaccines. It would also have devastated economies all across the world. That obviously did not happen.

On top of that – 1 billion people dying in the last 44 months or so would mean 22.7 million deaths per month, or over 745,000 per day! Do you believe that so many people have died in the past 3.5 years?

The hospitals, morgues, crematoriums, cemeteries and funereal services would not only be overwhelmed, they would be filled to the brim for years! In fact, some countries would likely be forced to bury their dead in mass graves.

Fact #5 : World population continues to increase

Finally, I should point out that the world population continues to increase year-on-year.

In fact, the world’s population is projected to keep increasing every year until hitting a peak of about 10.3 billion people in 2080.

Fact #6 : Mass grave photo is from 2011

The People’s Voice article used a photo which showed a mass grave with soldiers carrying a coffin. That photo was taken in March 2011, and has nothing to do with COVID-19 vaccines, or even the COVID-19 pandemic.

The photo shows members of the Japan Ground Self-Defence Force carrying the coffin of a victim of the 2011 Tōhoku earthquake and tsunami, at the temporary mass grave site in Higashi Matsushima, northern Japan.

Fact #7 : The People’s Voice is known for fake news

The People’s Voice is the current name for NewsPunch, which possibly changed its name because its brand has been so thoroughly discredited after posting numerous shocking but fake stories.

Founded as Your News Wire in 2014, it was rebranded as NewsPunch in November 2018, before becoming The People’s Voice. A 2017 BuzzFeed report identified NewsPunch as the second-largest source of popular fake news on Facebook that year.

Its articles have been regularly debunked as fake news, so you should think twice about sharing anything from NewsPunch / The People’s Voice. Here are some of its fake stories that I fact checked earlier:

Did Pfizer docs reveal mRNA vaccines as US weapon system?!

Leave a reply

Did Pfizer documents just reveal that mRNA vaccines are actually a US weapon system?! Take a look at the viral claim, and find out what the facts really are!

Claim : Pfizer docs reveal mRNA vaccines as US weapon system!

People are sharing an article (archive) by The People’s Voice (formerly NewsPunch), which claims that Pfizer documents just revealed that mRNA vaccines are actually a US weapon system!

Here is an excerpt of the (intentionally?) rambling and confusing article. Feel free to skip to the next section for the facts!

Confidential Pfizer FOIA Documents Reveal mRNA Vaccines Are ‘US Weapons System’

Bombshell Pfizer documents obtained through Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) requests have revealed the Big Pharma giant sought to suppress the release of damaging information about vaccine side-effects for 75 years because the releasing the information would “impair the application of state-of-the-art technology within a US weapons system.”

Due to FOIA requests, Pfizer was forced to release a “Confidential Report” titled “5.3.6 CUMULATIVE ANALYSIS OF POST-AUTHORIZATION ADVERSE EVENT REPORTS OF PF-07302048 (BNT162B2) RECEIVED THROUGH 28-FEB-2021.”

Pfizer knew their vaccine were killing unprecedented numbers of recipients, but they refused to stop distribution or application.

Even worse, Pfizer wanted these reports blocked from release for 75 years. This constitutes willful mass murder and crimes against humanity.

However, there is new information in the FOIA-released document that is raising eyebrows among researchers.

What is of particular concern is the government redaction coding applied to the documents by the National Archives.

As the National Archives explain, “The declassified documents will usually contain redactions, which indicate portions that contain information not releasable to the public. Each redaction will be associated with a redaction code, which gives the reason for why the information cannot be released.”

Throughout the Pfizer document we find redactions coded “(B) (4)”. The National Archives redaction coding page defines redaction code (B) (4) as: 3.3 (b) (4) Reveal information that would impair the application of state-of-the-art technology within a U.S. weapon system.

The revelation that the government consider mRNA vaccines to be part of a “weapons system” adds further weight to evidence present by Big Pharma whistleblowers who allege the mRNA vaccines is a “bioweapon” designed to depopulate humanity.

Truth : Pfizer docs do not reveal mRNA vaccines as US weapon system!

This is yet another example of fake news created / promoted by The People’s Voice, and here are the reasons why…

Fact #1 : mRNA vaccines are not a US weapon system

Let me start by simply pointing out that mRNA vaccines are not a US weapon system.

In fact, the Pfizer document in question do not show that the Pfizer mRNA COVID-19 vaccine was defined as a US weapon system.

Fact #2 : Pfizer document was not released by National Archives

The People’s Voice article claims that the (b)(4) redaction code refers to “state-of-the-art technology within a U.S. weapon system”, using the National Archives redaction codes as reference.

However, that’s utter nonsense, because the Pfizer document was not redacted and released by the National Archives. It was redacted and released by the US FDA under the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA).

In addition, the National Archives clearly states that its redaction code (b)(4) only applies to “records over 25 years old“. Documents related to the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine would definitely be less than 25 years old, and would never have a (b)(4) redaction code applied by the National Archives.

Fact #3 : FOIA (b)(4) redaction code refers to trade secrets

Under the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA), the (b)(4) redaction code refers to “trade secrets“:

Exemption 4 of the FOIA protects “trade secrets and commercial or financial information obtained from a person [that is] privileged or confidential.”

In short, when the US FDA redacted the Pfizer 5.3.6 document, it did so using the FOIA redaction code for Exemption 4. It obviously would not use the National Archives redaction code for documents over 25 years old!

Fact #4 : Pfizer 5.3.6 document is no longer redacted!

More importantly – the Pfizer 5.3.6 document is no longer redacted! If you compare the redacted (PDF) and uncensored (PDF) documents, you will see that only 3 small pieces of information (which I highlighted in bold) were originally redacted:

To date, Pfizer has onboarded approximately 600 additional full time employees (FTEs).
More are joining each month with an expected total of more than 1,800 additional resources by the end of June 2021.
It is estimated that approximately 126,212,580 doses of BNT162b2 were shipped worldwide from the receipt of the first temporary authorisation for emergency supply on 01 December 2020 through 28 February 2021.

As you can tell, the (b)(4) redactions (which I highlighted in bold) had nothing to do with US weapon systems!

Fact #5 : Pfizer 5.3.6 document was released long ago!

On top of that, the Pfizer 5.3.6 document wasn’t released recently. It is actually very old news.

The Pfizer 5.3.6 document was first released by the FDA to the PHMPT (Public Health and Medical Professionals for Transparency) group, with three small pieces of information redacted on 17 November 2021 – almost 3 years ago!

The FDA later decided that the redacted information were not confidential after all, and reissued the same document in full on 1 April 2022 – almost 2.5 years ago! You can read more about that here.

In other words – this is old news that has been regurgitated as something new, but is really stale and unpalatable like old vomit.

Fact #6 : Pfizer was not forced to release its documents

Finally, I should point out that Pfizer was not forced to release its documents.

Pfizer actually submitted those documents to health authorities in various countries way back in December 2020 or early 2021, when Pfizer applied for its mRNA COVID-19 vaccine to be approved.

It was really the US FDA (not Pfizer) that released those documents under a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request.

Fact #7 : The People’s Voice is known for fake news

The People’s Voice is the current name for NewsPunch, which possibly changed its name because its brand has been so thoroughly discredited after posting numerous shocking but fake stories.

Did Fatman Scoop collapse on stage and die suddenly from COVID-19 vaccine SADS?! Take a look at the viral claims, and find out what the facts really are!

Claim : Fatman Scoop died suddenly from COVID-19 vaccine!

Right after news broke that Fatman Scoop collapsed on stage and died suddenly at 53 years of age, some people immediately claimed or suggested the American rapper was killed by the COVID-19 vaccine!

Erin Elizabeth : Another major celebrity collapses on stage and dies suddenly. How many more is it going to take? Can you guess what he had in common with the others? Say yes below if you can see this. God so many people are dying after the jab.

Steve Kirsch : New normal. It’s so obvious that it’s the Covid shots causing this.

Tommy Robinson : ‘Fatman scoop’ becomes the latest in a huge line of people to “die suddenly” on stage or on a sporting field in the last few years. We all know what’s happening. #ArrestFauci

Naughty Beaver : Fatman Scoop, vaccinated, “Died suddenly” on stage in the middle of a performance.

Truth : Fatman Scoop did not die suddenly from COVID-19 vaccine!

It is now tradition for anti-vaccine activists to immediately blame all injuries or deaths on the COVID-19 vaccines.

Here are the reasons why this is yet another example of fake news about the COVID-19 vaccines…

Fact #1 : Fatman Scoop’s cause of death is still unknown

Let me start with a quick summary of the circumstances around his sudden death.

On Friday, August 30, 2024, Fatman Scoop (born Isaac Freeman III on August 6, 1971) was performing at the Town Center Park in Hamden, Connecticut, when he suddenly suffered a medical emergency and collapsed on stage.

His collapsed was caught on video. Fatman Scoop was seen climbing onto a platform, and struggling to go around the DJ. He then said, “If you came to party…” and pausing a moment before saying breathlessly “make some noise“, and then he collapsed out of view.

Medics tried to revive Fatman Scoop, and he was rushed to a nearby hospital. The next morning, his manager – DJ and producer Birch Michael, announced his death “with the heaviest of hearts“. And Fatman Scoop’s family then posted their statement, saying that “the world lost a radiant soul, a beacon of light on the stage and in life“.

Neither Fatman Scoop’s manager, nor his publicist Chanel Rae, or his family, have stated his cause of death. They certainly did not blame the COVID-19 vaccines for his death.

In fact, it has been speculated that an energy drink he consumed may have contributed to his death. Sharron Elkabas, the CEO of Fatman Scoop’s PR firm, told The Hollywood Reporter that the hiphop artist drank an energy containing stimulant compounds before his performance:

He had an energy drink before going on stage. He never drank energy drinks, but he did before this show.

Fatman Scoop also shared earlier that he suffered from COVID-19 and cellulitis in April. How bad was it? Did that COVID-19 infection, or his cellulitis, play any part in his death months later? Who knows?

The truth is – none of us know what caused Fatman Scoop’s death. Until and unless his family, or the Connecticut Medical Examiner reveals his official cause of death, no one knows for sure how he died – whether it was a heart attack, a cardiac arrest, or something else.

Fact #2 : Fatman Scoop was not vaccinated against COVID-19!

Fatman Scoop has publicly stated in an interview with Lil Jon that he was against the COVID-19 vaccines, and did not want to take it. He also stated (wrongly) that “the vaccine only MASKS the symptoms”.

I don’t want the vaccine. I’ll take my chances. No vaccine for me.

It is therefore impossible for Fatman Scoop to die from any COVID-19 vaccine side effect. After all – he never got vaccinated against COVID-19!

With that, Fatman Scoop now joins the list of unvaccinated people whose sudden deaths (or injuries) were abused by anti-vaccination activists for their agenda, like Kris Jordan, Aaron Carter, Kirstie Alley, Stephan Bonnar, Shane Macaulay, David Wayne Burleson, and Kaden Clymer.

Will those anti-vaccination activists apologise? I highly doubt it. They will likely just move on to the next sudden death / injury…

Fact #3 : Vaccine side effects appear with hours / days

Some people have also claimed (without evidence) that Fatman Scoop may have changed his mind, and got vaccinated against COVID-19.

But even if Fatman Scoop ended up getting the COVID-19 vaccine, he would have received his doses at least three years ago! He cannot possibly have suffered from a vaccine side effect, because they appear within hours or days, not months later.

Mild side effects like injection site pain, fever, muscle ache, headache, lethargy develop within minutes to hours of the vaccination. Anaphylaxis develops within minutes, while other severe adverse reactions like myocarditis and VITT develop within days or weeks.

The spike proteins produced by the COVID-19 vaccines also do not stick around for months. If these spike proteins are permanent (as antivaxxers claim), we would have lifelong immunity.

Your own immune system will identify the spike proteins as foreign, and destroy them within a matter of days, although some may last for up to a few weeks. This is part of how vaccines teach your immune system to identify the enemy and destroy it.

Is Bill Gates creating a supervirus using COVID, Mpox and HIV?!

Leave a reply

Is Bill Gates creating a supervirus using COVID-19, Mpox and HIV?! Take a look at the viral claim, and find out what the facts really are!

Claim : Bill Gates is creating a supervirus using COVID, Mpox, and HIV!

People are sharing an article (archive) by The People’s Voice (formerly NewsPunch), which claims that Bill Gates is creating a supervirus using COVID-19, Mpox, and HIV, to kill billions of people.

Here is an excerpt of the (intentionally?) rambling and confusing article. Feel free to skip to the next section for the facts!

Insider: Bill Gates Developing COVID-Mpox-HIV ‘Supervirus’ To Kill Billions of Humans

Bill Gates is working with Fauci to develop a new ‘supervirus’ that will combine RNA from SARS-CoV-2, mpox and HIV which will be capable of wiping out the vast majority of the population in a short space of time.

According to Biotech Analyst Karen Kingston, the supervirus will be aerosolised and sprayed on billions of humans worldwide.

On Wednesday, Kingston joined Brannon Howse to discuss the US House Committee questioning the alliance of the Biden-Harris Administration alliance with the Chinese Communist Party (“CCP”) and the US biopharmaceutical FDA trials being conducted by the Chinese military.

“It appears that the NIH has been funding the creation of a highly debilitating immunodeficiency virus (HIV) that can be transmitted via an injection, or even viaskin-to-skin contact during herpetic skin lesion breakouts (“mpox”),” Kingston said.

She explained that US and Canadian scientists filed a patent for mpox in China. The patent shows that the “monkeypox mRNA” was encoded as a latent virus into the SARS-CoV-2 mRNA found in Pfizer’s and Moderna’s covid-19 mRNA injections. In other words, a multi-species mpox was being used as a vaccine delivery vehicle for SARS-CoV-2.

“So, they’re saying that mpox is a vaccine against SARS-CoV-2. It makes no sense,” she said. “And now the NIH is funding ways to aerosolise this.”

In some people, the covid injections cause vaccine-acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (“VAIDS”)*, which weakens their immune system. And, Kingstone explained, because the sequences for pox-like viruses are embedded in the mRNA sequences contained in covid injections, those who develop VAIDS are likely to present with shingles and other herpetic (herpes virus) outbreaks, and herpetic cancer which is called Kaposi Sarcoma.

What’s scary, Kingston said, is that they are attempting to combine mpox, HIV and SARS-CoV-2; to make “a virus within a virus; [a] supervirus using nanoparticles technology to strengthen it so that there could be skin-to-skin transmission of a virus that is similar to HIV,” she said. This means it will be able to spread in a similar way that chickenpox spreads, through touching blisters or the liquid from blisters.

“It appears what they are trying to do is: within the pox virus family incorporate HIV mRNA strands so that there can be human-to-human transmission to just continually weaken our immune systems,” Kingston said.

Truth : Bill Gates is not creating a supervirus using COVID, Mpox, and HIV!

This is yet another example of fake news created / promoted by The People’s Voice, and here are the reasons why…

Fact #1 : No evidence Bill Gates is creating any virus with Dr. Fauci

This may seem silly, but let me start by pointing out that there is ZERO evidence that Bill Gates is creating any virus with Dr. Anthony Fauci, much less a “supervirus” made using COVID-19, Mpox, and HIV.

If there is such a project to create a supervirus to kill billions of people, it would have resulted in massive outrage, and numerous criminal investigations. Yet, there has been no legitimate media report, or even any outrage or criticism from the scientific community (who would know best about such matters). That’s because it was all made up!

Unsurprisingly, The People’s Voice article did not provide any actual evidence that Bill Gates is working with Dr. Anthony Fauci to create a supervirus of any kind, never mind one made from COVID-19, Mpox and HIV.

Fact #2 : Karen Kingston did not even mention Bill Gates

The People’s Voice article appears to be based on an opinion piece and video clip by Karen Kingston (archive).

Interestingly, Karen Kingston did not mention Bill Gates even once! So why would The People’s Voice article suggest otherwise???

Fact #3 : Karen Kingston only worked as Pfizer representative

According to information posted on her LinkedIn profile (archive), Karen Kingston only worked at Pfizer from June 1996 to November 1998, as a healthcare representative.

As a Pfizer healthcare representative (example), her job scope would have been to sell Pfizer products or services to healthcare professionals in her region or area. She would not have any insight into product development, never mind actually conduct any research.

Her 2.5 year stint at Pfizer also occurred over 21 years before COVID-19 pandemic. So she would not have any insight into the development of the Pfizer-BioNTech mRNA COVID-19 vaccine.

As far as we can tell, Karen Kingston did not work on any scientific research at Pfizer, and she left long before mRNA vaccines were developed. So she can hardly be described as as “insider”.

Fact #4 : Pfizer mRNA vaccine was developed by BioNTech

In addition, the Pfizer mRNA vaccine was actually developed by a separate company – BioNTech, which is based in Germany. It was co-founders Özlem Türeci (left) and her husband, Uğur Şahin (right), who created the mRNA vaccine for COVID-19.

Pfizer was merely BioNTech’s partner for the purpose of carrying out clinical trials, manufacturing and distribution of the BioNTech mRNA vaccine for COVID-19. That’s why the vaccine was initially known as BNT162b2 – BNT being short for BioNTech, and later became the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine.

In short – Pfizer did not develop the mRNA vaccine technology used in its COVID-19 vaccine. It was created by Uğur Şahin and Özlem Türeci at BioNTech.

Fact #5 : Pfizer mRNA vaccine does not contain mpox or HIV viruses

The Pfizer-BioNTech mRNA vaccine does not contain any monkeypox (now known as mpox) virus, or human immunodeficiency virus (HIV).

We know this because the full sequence for the mRNA encoding used in the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine consists of only 4250 nucleotides.

On the other hand, the monkeypox virus DNA genome is much larger at about 197kb in size, while the HIV virus RNA genome is about 9.2kb in size.

In other words – it is simply impossible for the much smaller mRNA encoding to contain monkeypox and HIV viruses!

Is monkeypox a vaccine-induced autoimmune disease?!

Leave a reply

Is monkeypox / mpox an autoimmune disease caused by the COVID-19 vaccine?! Take a look at the viral claim, and find out what the facts really are!

Claim : Monkeypox is a vaccine-induced autoimmune disease!

People are sharing an article (archive) by The People’s Voice (formerly NewsPunch), which claims or suggests that monkeypox is a vaccine-induced autoimmune disease – autoimmune blistering disease, or shingles, or even herpes!

Here is an excerpt of the (intentionally?) rambling and confusing article. Feel free to skip to the next section for the facts!

Top Virologists Blow Whistle: Monkeypox Is Actually COVID Vaccine-Induced ‘Autoimmune Blistering Disease’

Top doctors worldwide are stepping forward to expose the World Health Organization’s monkeypox scare as a cover-up for known side effects linked to the COVID mRNA vaccines.

According to leading virologist Dr. Poornima Wagh, we are not experiencing an outbreak of monkeypox around the world, as claimed by the WHO. As Dr. Wagh explains, the symptoms experienced by those diagnosed with monkeypox are actually a known side-effect of the Covid shots.

Meanwhile, Dr. Wolfgang Wodarg has warned that the WHO’s claims of a monkeypox emergency is another scam and the disease we are witnessing is actually the result of destroyed immune syste shingles caused by the Covid shots.

Monkeypox cases are currently being reported in highly vaccinated countries around the world, while lesser-vaccinated countries are not reporting any cases.

Take, for instance, the confirmed Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine side-effect known as automimmune blistering disease which is listed in the fine print of confidential Pfizer documents as a known side-effect of the vaccines.

The condition is hidden within the 9-page long list of adverse events of special interest at the end of Pfizer’s reissue_5.3.6 postmarketing experience.pdf document.

Official government data and confidential Pfizer documents strongly suggest the Covid-19 injection is in the process of reactivating the dormant chickenpox virus or herpes virus due to the severe damage mRNA does to the immune system.

This means we may not be witnessing a worldwide outbreak of monkeypox at all, but rather a huge cover-up of the consequences of administering an experimental injection to millions of people.

Meanwhile, another confidential Pfizer document contained in the data dump, known as ‘reissue_5.3.6 postmarketing experience.pdf’, revels that COVID-19 mRNA vaccines have destroyed immune systems, causing herpes viral infections to make a major comeback.

Truth : Monkeypox is not a vaccine-induced autoimmune disease!

This is yet another example of fake news created / promoted by The People’s Voice, and here are the reasons why…

Fact #1 : Monkeypox is not an autoimmune disease

Let me start by pointing out that monkeypox (which is now known as mpox) is not an autoimmune disease in the first place.

Mpox / monkeypox is caused by the monkeypox virus (MPV, MPXV, or hMPXV) – a double-stranded DNA virus from the Orthopoxvirus genus.

Fact #2 : Monkeypox is not caused by COVID-19 vaccines

To be clear, monkeypox is not caused by any COVID-19 vaccine, because they do not contain the monkeypox virus, as some have alleged.

Fact #3 : Mpox virus was first identified in 1958

Mpox was first identified by Preben von Magnus in crab-eating macaque monkeys (hence, the name) that were being used as laboratory animals in Denmark, way back in 1958 – more than 60 years before the COVID-19 vaccines were invented.

Fact #4 : First human mpox infection was diagnosed in 1970

In addition, the first known human mpox infection was diagnosed in 1970, in the Democratic Republic of Congo, where mpox is endemic.

This occurred more than 50 years before the first COVID-19 vaccines were approved, so mpox infections have nothing to do with COVID-19 vaccines.

Fact #5 : DRC has very low COVID-19 vaccination rate

It is ludicrous to claim or suggest that the current mpox / monkeypox outbreak is caused by COVID-19 vaccination, because it started in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC), which has very low COVID-19 vaccination rates due to poor healthcare infrastructure, political instability and… misinformation!

According to the latest available data, only about 2.6 million people in Congo – out of 110 million people, have been vaccinated against COVID-19. That’s a vaccination rate of less than 2.5%, even if you assume they were all “fully-vaccinated”.

Fact #6 : COVID-19 vaccines are not associated with autoimmune disease

After billions of doses were administered and over 3.5 years of monitoring, COVID-19 vaccines are not known to cause any autoimmune disease. Neither do they cause viral diseases like herpes by “destroying the immune system”.

People claiming that mpox is really autoimmune blistering disease, or herpes, or shingles, appear to base their “opinions” on the Pfizer list of 1,291 Adverse Events of Special Interest (AESI) that some claim the FDA tried to block for 75 years.

That’s just utter nonsense, because the AESI list is not a list of vaccine side effects, and includes irrelevant adverse events like viral infections (herpes, MERS, varicella, etc., as well as “manufacturing production issue” and even “product availability issue”!

Fact #7 : Autoimmune diseases cannot spread like a virus

Autoimmune diseases like autoimmune blistering disease, pemphigus, or pemphigoid, arise when your own immune system mistakenly attacks your skin, or mucous membranes. It cannot spread from person to person.

Monkeypox / mpox infections, on the other hand, are caused by a viral infection that spreads through close or sexual contact.

So it is really silly to claim or suggest that the current outbreak of monkeypox / mpox is really vaccine-induced autoimmune diseases that spread from person-to-person… like a virus!

Fact #8 : The People’s Voice Is Known For Fake News

The People’s Voice is the current name for NewsPunch, which possibly changed its name because its brand has been so thoroughly discredited after posting numerous shocking but fake stories.

Was this man shot with buckshot or infected with monkeypox?!

Leave a reply

Was this man shot by Iranian security forces with buckshot, or infected with mpox / monkeypox?! Take a look at the viral photo, and find out what the facts really are!

Updated @ 2024-08-21 : Added Ama Llulla network fact check, and more details
Originally posted @ 2024-08-20

Claim : This man was shot with buckshot, not infected with monkeypox!

Some people are claiming that the famous photo of a man with multiple black scabs was not infected with monkeypox, but rather, he was shot by Iranian security forces with buckshot.

Debbie Crawford : Fake pic! That is a guy that got shot with Buckshot years ago, stop with the fear porn already

Kevin McKernan : It’s a buckshot injury you PhDarded NPC.

Tarek : this is not monkey pox..i am in Congo and help with hospitals.. this is just a protestor shot with buckshot in Iran

Truth : This man was infected with monkeypox, not shot with buckshot!

This appears to be an example of (accidental?) fake news circulating on social media, and here are the reasons why…

Fact #1 : False claims based on Iran HRM article

It appears that people who claimed that this photo actually shows a man who was shot by Iranian security forces with buckshot, based their opinions on an Iran Human Rights Monitor (HRM) article that was posted on 8 November 2022 (archive). Here’s an excerpt:

Shooting to kill, an unretouched image of Iran regime

A documentary on the Iranian regime’s use of shotguns against Iranian protesters

State forces in Iran fire the shotguns with pellets as alternatives to live ammunition against protesters. This use of arms is an act against international laws. A shotgun is not only considered a deadly weapon, but it accidentally harms anyone in its range. Children and the elderly are all possible targets, even passers-by and those who may not be participating in protests.

The Iran HRM article posted a slightly-cropped photo of the man with dozens of large black scabs, with the description – “A citizen hit by buckshot“.

Fact #2 : Photo shows immunocompromised mpox patient

The truth is – the viral photo was wrongly labelled by Iran Human Rights Monitor, as a victim of buckshot fired by Iranian security forces.

This photo was taken by Dr. Hiram Jerónimo, a Mexican infectious disease specialist, who posted it on 11 October 2022 – almost a month before the Iran HRM article.

He confirmed that the man was an immunocompromised patient who suffered a severe case of monkeypox (Viruela símica) with more than 250 lesions.

Obviously, this photo was taken in Mexico by Dr. Jerónimo, and could not have been taken in Iran.

Fact #3 : A single buckshot wound would not present like this

The Iran HRM article suggests that the man might have been shot with a 12-gauge shotgun firing either #4 buckshot or 00 buckshot, due to the size of the wounds.

However, if you take a closer look, you can see that the wounds extend all around his body – around both sides, and all the way to his head and even the ears! It would be quite impossible for him to be shot with so many pellets in a single shot. I counted over 105 large black scabs in that photo, and there’s more if you count the healed pockmarks.

For those wounds to be caused by a shotgun, he would have been shot multiple times – at least 4 to 12 times, based on the number of wounds. He would also “need” to be shot at different angles, for the buckshot to hit his back, his head, as well as both left and right sides.

If that man was really shot multiple times by a 12-gauge shotgun, he would have likely died, even if they used smaller buckshot.

Buckshot wounds look different, and would also not protrude outwards like pox-like bumps, which is how monkeypox / mpox presents (source).

Fact #4 : Some wounds have healed

If you look closely at the photo, you can also see circular scars of healed wounds on the man’s back.

Unless he got shot with buckshot on two different occasions days or weeks apart, it is far more likely that those are healed monkeypox scars.

Fact #5 : Ama Llulla confirmed this in February 2023

Ama Llulla – the Peruvian fact-checking network, actually fact checked this viral photo in a February 2023 article, and confirmed that it was a photo of an immunocompromised patient suffering from severe monkeypox (mpox) which was posted by Dr. José Hiram Hernández Jerónimo on 11 October 2022.

It also confirmed that the photo was incorrectly circulated as someone who was injured during the protests in Iran (translated):

It should be noted that the image of the patient has previously been circulated incorrectly, claiming that he was injured during the protests in Iran. In a statement from ‘Stichting Van De Familieleden’ (SF), a non-profit organization dedicated to defending human rights in Iran, the photo in question was published with the claim that it depicted ‘a civilian hit by pellets.’

Does AstraZeneca COVID-19 vaccine contain mpox virus?!

Does the AstraZeneca COVID-19 vaccine secretly contain the mpox virus?! Take a look at the viral claims, and find out what the facts really are!

Claim : AstraZeneca COVID-19 vaccine contains mpox virus!

Some people are sharing a photo of the AstraZeneca COVID-19 vaccine package leaflet, claiming or suggesting that AstraZeneca COVID-19 vaccine secretly contains the mpox virus!

The photo highlights the portion of the vaccine leaflet that says that it contains a “Recombinant, replication-deficient chimpanzee adenovirus vector encoding the SARS-CoV-2 Spike glycoprotein.”

Truth : AstraZeneca COVID-19 vaccine does not contain mpox virus!

This is yet another example of fake news created and propagated by anti-vaccination activists, and here are the reasons why…

Fact #1 : Mpox is caused by an Orthopoxvirus

Let me start by quickly pointing out that the mpox (formerly known as monkeypox) virus is not a chimpanzee adenovirus.

Mpox is caused by the monkeypox virus (MPV, MPXV, or hMPXV) – a double-stranded DNA virus from the Orthopoxvirus genus in the Poxviridae family. It is closely related to the smallpox virus (variola)

The chimpanzee adenovirus is also a double-stranded DNA virus, but it is from the Mastadenovirus genus in the Adenoviridae family. It is similar to the adenoviruses that cause the common flu in human beings.

These two viruses are as different as cats and dogs. Cats and dogs are both mammals, but as you can tell – they are quite different animals!

Fact #2 : Adenovirus used in AstraZeneca vaccine cannot replicate

The AstraZeneca COVID-19 vaccine uses a chimpanzee adenovirus to “teach” some of our cells to produce the SARS-CoV-2 spike proteins to trigger an immune response.

The chimpanzee adenovirus used in the vaccine – ChAdOx1 – had already been modified from the original ChAd virus serotype Y25 to prevent replication. Therefore, the virus cannot replicate, and is incapable of producing any disease in human beings.

Fact #5 : DRC has very low COVID-19 vaccination rate

It is ludicrous to claim or suggest that the current mpox outbreak is caused by the AstraZeneca COVID-19 vaccine, because it started in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC), which has very low COVID-19 vaccination rates due to poor healthcare infrastructure, political instability and… misinformation!

According to the latest available data, only about 2.6 million people – out of 110 million people, have been vaccinated against COVID-19. That’s a vaccination rate of less than 2.5%, even if you assume they were all “fully-vaccinated”.

Fact #6 : 2022, 2024 monkeypox outbreaks started years later

The AstraZeneca COVID-19 vaccine has been given to over 2.4 billion people globally, since its approval in December 2020. If the AstraZeneca COVID-19 vaccine can actually cause mpox infections, it would have resulted in massive mpox outbreaks all over the world within days of being administered.

Yet the 2022 and 2024 monkeypox outbreaks only started 1.5 to 2.5 years after the AstraZeneca vaccine was introduced. In other words – even the temporal timeline for this ridiculous claim is out of whack!

They believe that it is this virus that causes monkeypox, and that the AstraZeneca vaccine is responsible for spreading monkeypox to vaccinated people.

Here are some of the comments that accompany these viral posts :

Who is surprised that after millions of people have been injected with genetically modified chimp virus, there is now an outbreak of monkeypox?

“The AstraZeneca vaccine uses a chimpanzee adenovirus vaccine vector” Makes you wonder doesn’t it.🤔🤔🤔🤔

More monkey business #AstraZeneca #monkeypox

Truth : AstraZeneca COVID-19 vaccine won’t give you monkeypox!

This is yet another example of fake news created and propagated by anti-vaccination activists, and here are the reasons why…

Fact #1 : Adenovirus used in AstraZeneca vaccine cannot replicate

The AstraZeneca Vaxzevria vaccine, codenamed AZD1222, uses a chimpanzee adenovirus to “teach” some of our cells to produce the SARS-CoV-2 spike proteins to trigger an immune response.

Fact #2 : Monkeypox is not caused by chimpanzee adenovirus

Monkeypox is caused by the monkeypox virus, which is completely different from the chimpanzee adenovirus.

The monkeypox virus is a double-stranded DNA virus from the Orthopoxvirus genus in the Poxviridae family. It is closely related to the smallpox virus (variola).

These two viruses are as different as cats and dogs. Cats and dogs are both mammals, but as you can tell – they are quite different animals!

Fact #3 : Monkeypox is a misnomer

Monkeypox was first identified and named in 1958, when it was identified in laboratory monkeys in Copenhagen, Denmark.

However, the name monkeypox is a misnomer, as it is not very common in monkeys. Neither did it originate in monkeys, nor does it spread only through monkeys.

It is known to spread through prairie dogs, dormice, squirrels, and non-human primates. It may possibly also spread through rabbits, rats and mice.

Fact #4 : Chimpanzees are not monkeys

Not that it matters, but you should know that chimpanzees and monkeys are of different species.

Chimpanzees and monkeys are both primates, but their last common ancestor dates back some 30 million years ago.

Monkeys are simians; while chimpanzees are great apes, and are genetically closest to human beings.

Fact #5 : 2022, 2024 monkeypox outbreaks started years later

Fact #6 : Monkeypox started infecting people in 1970

The first human monkeypox infections were reported in 1970. As you can tell – that’s almost 50 years before the COVID-19 pandemic, and 51 years before the AstraZeneca vaccine was introduced.

Fact #7 : Monkeypox cases were increasing before COVID-19

At first, monkeypox infections in humans were relatively few – about 400 cases from 1970 to 1986, and they were mostly limited to Central and Weest Africa.

However, it started becoming more common, with 2000 cases per year reported between 2011 and 2014. There were also several small outbreaks in the US (2003 and 2021), UK (2018 and 2021), and Singapore (2019).

These cases all happened long before the COVID-19 pandemic, and certainly long before AstraZeneca and Oxford developed their Vaxzevria vaccine against COVID-19!

Is Mpox a side effect of COVID-19 vaccines?!

Leave a reply

Is Mpox (formerly known as monkeypox) actually a side effect of COVID-19 vaccines?! Take a look at the viral claims, and find out what the facts really are!

Claim : Mpox is a side effect of COVID-19 vaccines!

Some people are claiming or suggesting that Mpox (formerly known as monkeypox) is actually a side effect of COVID-19 vaccines!

Concerned Citizen : Autoimmune disease VS Mpox

Autoimmune disease was a well known & listed common side effect from Pfizer’s experimental mRNA Gene Therapy Roll out. It looks remarkably identical to Monkey pox. Must be a coincidence.

Shadow of Ezra : A comparison between Autoimmune Blistering Disease and Monkeypox. Autoimmune Blistering Disease is identified as an Adverse Event of Special Interest in Pfizer’s COVID mRNA vaccines, as disclosed in the court-ordered Pfizer documents, which the company initially wanted to keep confidential for 72 years.

Dr Jane Ruby : MONKEYPOX IS C19 INJECTION CAUSED “Autoimmune blistering disease,” aka opportunistic Shingles. This is an attempt to prepare the public to accept a “monkeypox vaccine”

HealthRanger : “Monkeypox” is just another name for vaccine-induced autoimmune disease. Do not forget this. As they roll out the monkeypox “pandemic,” they WILL be able to produce lots of scary-looking people with horrific skin outbreaks. They will lie to you and tell you that you need a vaccine to be safe. If you believe the lie, you may die after being injected with their death jabs.

Chris Wick News : Is ‘Monkeypox’ Just a Convenient Rebrand for Vaccine-Induced Autoimmune Disease?”

Could it be that “Monkeypox” is nothing more than a flashy new name for vaccine-induced autoimmune disease? Are we really supposed to believe that as they roll out this latest “pandemic,” they’ll conveniently have a supply of scary-looking individuals with terrifying skin outbreaks to keep us all on edge? Will they, once again, try to sell us the idea that the only way to be “safe” is by lining up for another jab—despite the risks?

Truth : Mpox is not a side effect of COVID-19 vaccines!

This is yet another example of fake news created and propagated by anti-vaccination activists, and here are the reasons why…

Fact #1 : Mpox is caused by a virus

Let me start by quickly pointing out that mpox (formerly known as monkeypox) is not a side effect of COVID-19 vaccines. Mpox is caused by the monkeypox virus (MPV, MPXV, or hMPXV) – a double-stranded DNA virus from the Orthopoxvirus genus.

Fact #2 : Mpox virus was first identified in 1958

Fact #3 : First human mpox infection was diagnosed in 1970

In addition, the first known human mpox infection was diagnosed in 1970, in the Democratic Republic of Congo, where mpox is endemic.

This occurred more than 50 years before the first COVID-19 vaccines were approved, so mpox infections have nothing to do with COVID-19 vaccines.

Fact #4 : DRC has very low COVID-19 vaccination rate

It is also ludicrous to claim or suggest that the current mpox outbreak is caused by COVID-19 vaccination, because it started in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC), which has very low COVID-19 vaccination rates due to poor healthcare infrastructure, political instability and… misinformation!

Fact #5 : COVID-19 vaccines are not associated with autoimmune disease

After billions of doses were administered and over 3.5 years of monitoring, COVID-19 vaccines are not known to cause any autoimmune disease.

People claiming that mpox is really autoimmune blistering disease, or pemphigus, or bullous pemphigoid, appear to base their “opinions” on the Pfizer list of 1,291 Adverse Events of Special Interest (AESI) that some claim the FDA tried to block for 75 years.

Fact #6 : Autoimmune diseases cannot spread like a virus

Mpox infections, on the other hand, are caused by a viral infection that spreads through close or sexual contact.

So it is really silly to claim or suggest that the current outbreak of mpox is really vaccine-induced autoimmune diseases that spread from person-to-person… like a virus!

Is Bill Gates using chemtrails to spread monkeypox?!

Leave a reply

Is Bill Gates using chemtrails to spread monkeypox in major cities?! Take a look at the viral claim, and find out what the facts really are!

Claim : Bill Gates is using chemtrails to spread monkeypox!

People are sharing an article (archive) by The People’s Voice (formerly NewsPunch), which claims that a whistleblower at the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation has revealed that Bill Gates is using chemtrails to spread monkeypox in major cities!

Here is an excerpt of the (intentionally?) rambling and confusing article. Feel free to skip to the next section for the facts!

Whistleblower: Bill Gates Seeding Monkeypox in Major Cities via Chemtrails

A disturbing revelation has emerged from within the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, as a whistleblower comes forward to expose a plan to use the existing chemtrails operation to unleash the next pandemic.

A senior scientist has bravely broken her silence to reveal a covert operation known as “Project Skypox” which involves spraying a highly contagious variety of aerosolized monkeypox over unsuspecting civilian populations with a view to causing a new pandemic and rolling out a punishing regime of vaccines and restrictions.

Claiming that staff at the Gates Foundation are divided over the morality of this operation, the senior scientist warns that Gates is laser-focused on the plan and determined to push ahead with it whether his staff agree with him or not.

According to WHO chief Dr. Tedros, who receives the vast bulk of his paycheck from Bill Gates, sovereign nations to coordinate a global response to what he describes as the “Mpox international health emergency” following a minor outbreak in isolated parts of the Democratic Republic of Congo.

The Gates Foundation conveniently already has enough mpox vaccinations ready to vaccinate the bulk of the world but there is just one problem, according to a brave Gates Foundation scientist who has become the highest placed whistleblower in the history of the organization.

According to the whistleblower, Mpox just isn’t contagious enough and the elite are desperately seeking new ways to infect the global population so they can roll out the next phase of their totalitarian master plan to enslave humanity

The Gates Foundation whistleblower revealed the organization is working with globalist institutions including the United Nations and World Economic Forum to expedite an mRNA vaccine rollout in the same manner as the Covid pandemic.

Except this vaccine will be pumped into the arms of the masses even faster, without any testing, and the consequences will be even worse.

According to the Gates Foundation insider, the organization is being placed under enormous strain by Gates’ increasingly psychopathic methods.

Show less

Truth : Bill Gates is not using chemtrails to spread monkeypox!

This is yet another example of fake news created / promoted by The People’s Voice, and here are the reasons why…

Fact #1 : There is no whistleblower

Let me start by pointing out that there is no whistleblower scientist at the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation.

If a high-level employee at the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation actually blew the whistle on a conspiracy to spread monkeypox (now known as mpox), it would have been covered widely by the mainstream media. There would also have been massive outrage not only by the public, but also public health officials. In fact, such a shocking revelation would have triggered criminal investigations across the world!

Yet, there has been no media coverage, no outraged public health officials or public, not even a single criminal investigation. That’s because it never happened, and the story was completely made up!

Unsurprisingly, The People’s Voice article provided no evidence that such a whistleblower exists, never mind actually proving the claims he/she made.

Fact #2 : Monkeypox cannot spread through chemtrails

The whole concept of using airplanes to spread monkeypox through chemtrails is utter nonsense. Any genuine whistleblower scientist would know it’s impossible to spread monkeypox by spraying it from 10 kilometres up in the sky.

For one thing – human transmission of mpox occurs mainly through direct contact with the infectious skin, or other lesions in the mouth or on genitals. According to the WHO, it can also spread through very close contact, like:

face-to-face (talking or breathing)
skin-to-skin (touching or vaginal/anal sex)
mouth-to-mouth (kissing)
mouth-to-skin contact (oral sex or kissing the skin)
respiratory droplets or short-range aerosols from prolonged close contact

In other words – you cannot spread mpox by spraying it from tens of thousands of feet up in the sky. Unsurprisingly, The People’s Voice article did not provide any evidence to back up its “fact checked” claim.

Fact #3 : Chemtrails do not exist

The term “chemtrails” refers to the belief that condensation trails (contrails) left in the sky by high-flying aircraft are actually chemical or biological agents being deliberately spread for various nefarious purposes.

The truth is – chemtrails do not exist. The white trails you see behind airplanes flying at high altitudes are contrails – trails of water vapour from aircraft engines that condenses into ice crystals in the extremely cold air.

In fact, these contrails have been seen since aircraft were able to fly at high altitudes, and were prominent during World War 2, when contrails were often seen during high-altitude bombing missions.

On top of that, it would require many tens of thousands of people in the aviation industry to work in perfect unison to cover up an industry-wide conspiracy to spray people with chemicals or biological agents like mpox. In truth – such a conspiracy would have been exposed within hours, if not days.

Unsurprisingly, The People’s Voice article did not provide any evidence of an industry-wide conspiracy to spray major cities with monkeypox, never mind actual evidence that Bill Gates was involved in such a nefarious plot.

Fact #4 : The People’s Voice Is Known For Fake News

The People’s Voice is the current name for NewsPunch, which possibly changed its name because its brand has been so thoroughly discredited after posting numerous shocking but fake stories.

Its articles have been regularly debunked as fake news, so you should never share anything from NewsPunch / The People’s Voice. Here are some of its fake stories that I fact checked earlier:

Did Mpox Clade 1b hit Singapore with 9-10 cases so far?!

Leave a reply

Did Mpox Clade 1b hit Singapore with 9 or 10 cases so far?! Take a look at the viral claim, and find out what the facts really are!

Claim : Mpox Clade Ib hit Singapore with 9-10 cases so far!

People are sharing a photo of an mpox patient, claiming that Mpox Clade 1b has already hit Singapore with 9 cases so far.

Mpox has arrived in Singapore. 9 cases so far.
Mpox 已抵达新加坡。目前已有 9 例.

Fwd from SG friend.
+++
Mpox is now spreading in Singapore… with 10 cases reported so far. Time to SERIOUSLY resume your personal safety measures IMMEDIATELY.

MOH warns that this is a HIGHLY CONTAGIOUS DISEASE.
+++
Stay safe, stay healthy

Mpox has arrived in Singapore. 10 cases so far.

Truth : Mpox Clade 1b has not hit Singapore with 9-10 cases so far!

This is yet another example of fake news circulating on WhatsApp, and here are the reasons why…

Fact #1 : WHO only declared PHEIC over Mpox Clade Ib

Let me start by quickly pointing out that the World Health Organization (WHO) declared a Public Health Emergency of International Concern (PHEIC) on 14 August 2024 for Mpox Clade 1b (Clade Ib).

Here is the relevant section of the WHO PHEIC declaration, with our emphasis in bold.

The emergence last year and rapid spread of a new virus strain in DRC, clade 1b, which appears to be spreading mainly through sexual networks, and its detection in countries neighbouring the DRC is especially concerning, and one of the main reasons for the declaration of the PHEIC.

In the past month, over 100 laboratory-confirmed cases of clade 1b have been reported in four countries neighbouring the DRC that have not reported mpox before: Burundi, Kenya, Rwanda and Uganda. Experts believe the true number of cases to be higher as a large proportion of clinically compatible cases have not been tested.

Fact #2 : Singapore has no Mpox Clade 1b cases yet

With that 2024 WHO PHEIC in mind, Singapore has not recorded any cases of Mpox Clade 1b yet, as of Monday, 19 August 2024.

On Saturday, 17 August 2024, Singapore Health Minister Ong Ye Huang said that the current risk of an outbreak in Asia and Singapore is low as there are no direct flights to the affected areas in Africa.

He said that the virus is mostly a concern for African countries, although it is expected to spread to the Middle East and Europe, and cases there could eventually spread to Singapore.

I would say, in general, this is a very worrying situation, especially for the African continent.

But I think we should work on the basis that mpox will arrive in Asia. And probably, Singapore will be one of the first places to find cases because of our flight connections (with Middle East and Europe).

In other words, there has been NO RECORDED CASES of Mpox Clade 1b cases in Singapore yet. There could be some in the future, but none at this point in time, as per the Singapore Ministry of Health (archive).

To date, all mpox infections detected in Singapore have been the milder Clade II infections, mostly during the 2022-2023 global outbreak.

Fact #3 : Singapore has had dozens of mpox cases

It appears that “rumours” that Singapore has 9 or 10 mpox recently is based on a misunderstanding of media reports like this:

Singapore has had 10 cases of mpox since January 2024, which the Ministry of Health (MOH) confirmed were from the clade II variant.

The problem is – people don’t understand that the current concern isn’t the Clade II strain that has been going around since the 2022 outbreaks.

In fact, Singapore reported 18 cases in 2022, and 32 cases in 2023, followed by 10 cases in 2024. So Singapore has had dozens – at least 60, of mpox Clade 2 cases since the 2022 outbreaks.

What Singapore has not encountered (yet) is the new mpox Clade 1b strain that is worrying health experts, and the reason why WHO issued its second mpox PHEIC in two years.

Fact #4 : Mpox photo was of immunocompromised patient from 2022

The viral photo of the patient with a large number of huge black scabs appears to have been misappropriated and wrongly (or falsely?) labelled by the Iran Human Rights Monitor, as a victim of buckshot fired by Iranian security forces (archive).

This photo appears to have been taken by Dr. Hiram Jerónimo, a Mexican infectious disease specialist, who posted it on 11 October 2022. He confirmed that it was an immunocompromised patient who suffered a severe case of monkeypox (Viruela símica) with more than 250 lesions.

Fact #5 : Mpox Clade Ib is different from Clade 2b from 2022 outbreaks

Mpox, formerly known as monkeypox, isn’t a new disease. The Orthopoxvirus causing mpox was first detected in humans in 1970, and has caused outbreaks now and then. But mpox only came into prominence in July 2022, when a multi-country outbreak of mpox Clade 2 cause concern enough for the World Health Organization (WHO) to declare a PHEIC.

However, the 2022 outbreaks were caused by the mpox Clade 2b (Clade IIb) virus, which is a different strain from the mpox Clade 1b (Ib) virus that is causing the current health emergency in 2024.

As the European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control (ECDC) explains, mpox Clade 1 and Clade 2 are “genetically distinct”, with different characteristics (WHO):

Mpox Clade 1 (also known as the Central African clade, or the Congo Basin clade) has a different genetic profile from Mpox Clade 2 (also known as the West African clade),
Mpox Clade 1 has more severe clinical symptoms, with higher rates of complications and fatalities, than Mpox Clade 2

While both clades are primarily transmitted through contact with infected animals, human-to-human transmission has occurred with the newer Clade 1b and Clade 2b strains.

Mpox Clade 2b outbreak of 2022-2023 primarily spreads through sexual contact.
The newer mpox Clade 1b outbreak of 2024 primarily spreads through close contact.

To be clear – what is concerning WHO and health officials worldwide isn’t the milder mpox Clade 2 strain that has been going around globally since 2022, but the new, and more virulent mpox Clade 1b that has started to spread out of the Democratic Republic of the Congo.

Doctors with mRNA turbo cancer evidence killed in plane crash?!

Were eight doctors with mRNA turbo cancer evidence suddenly killed in a plane crash?! Take a look at the viral claim, and find out what the facts really are!

Claim : Doctors with mRNA turbo cancer evidence killed in plane crash!

People are sharing an article (archive) by The People’s Voice (formerly NewsPunch), which claims that eight doctors with mRNA turbo cancer evidence were suddenly killed in a plane crash!

Here is an excerpt of the long and (intentionally?) confusing article. Feel free to skip to the next section for the facts!

Doctors Killed in Plane Crash Vowed To Release Evidence Linking mRNA to Turbo Cancer

Eight cancer doctors who dedicated their lives to saving others and blowing the whistle on the devastating turbo cancer epidemic sweeping the world have been found dead.

The bodies of six world-leading oncologists and two resident medics were found on Friday in the wreckage of a plane that plunged from the sky in Brazil and exploded in a fireball, killing all 62 people on board.

The doctors were on their way to an international conference in Sao Paolo where they were set to present their findings that mRNA and the COVID-19 vaccines are responsible for the explosion of turbo cancers and autoimmune disease wreaking havoc around the world today.

Six leading oncologists and two resident medics were on their way to a blockbuster cancer conference in Sao Paulo when the twin-engine turboprop ATR 72-500 VoePass Airline flight plunged from the sky and crashed into a gated community.

The plane was at an altitude of 16,000 feet when it went into a “death spiral” and plummeted to the ground in fifty seconds.

Eyewitnesses who caught the crash on video said it appeared to stall before circling to the ground and bursting into flames at around 1.30pm local time

A total of 15 doctors were scheduled to take the doomed flight but miraculously seven had taken an earlier plane.

According to a colleague, the whistleblowing doctors were set to present evidence to the world that the public were misled about the nature of the mRNA COVID-19 injections.

The doctors on the doomed flight had concluded that governments and regulators must urgently recall the mRNA vaccines before even more harm is done.

Truth : Doctors with mRNA turbo cancer evidence were not killed in plane crash!

This is yet another example of fake news created / promoted by The People’s Voice, and here are the reasons why…

Fact #1 : Voepass Flight 2283 possibly crashed due to ice buildup

Let me start by pointing out that Flight 2283, which was operated by Voepass Linhas Aéreas, stalled and entered into a flat spin on 9 August 2024. After a rapid descent at around 13:22 local time, Flight 2283 crashed in Vinhedo, São Paulo, killing all 62 people onboard.

Both flight recorders from Flight 2283 were recovered, and the Brazilian Aeronautical Accidents Investigation and Prevention Center (CENIPA) is currently investigating the crash, together with the French Bureau of Enquiry and Analysis for Civil Aviation Safety (BEA), and the Canadian Transportation Safety Board (TSB).

The authorities have yet to determine the actual cause of the crash, so anyone who claims that the crash was intentional in any way, is likely lying to you.

In fact, aviation experts say that ice buildup could have been a factor, as four ATR 72 aircraft crashed due to icing problems in the past – American Eagle Flight 4184, TransAsia Airways Flight 791, Aero Caribbean Flight 883, and UTair Flight 120.

Fact #2 : Doctors were not presenting mRNA turbo cancer evidence

I should also point out that the doctors onboard Flight 2283 were not on their way to present any evidence about mRNA COVID-19 vaccines, or turbo cancer at the oncology conference.

According to the Federal Council of Medicine (CFM), the doctors were heading to the oncology conference as part of their CME (Continuing Medical Education) – getting updates on oncology, and learning from their colleagues.

Translated : The CFM also expressed its solidarity with the victims’ families, stating that they were seeking knowledge and updates, which is a common and necessary practice among members of the profession.

Needless to say – the doctors onboard Flight 2283 have never called for governments and regulators to “urgently recall the mRNA vaccines”.

Unsurprisingly, The People’s Voice article did not provide any evidence to back up its “fact checked” claim that the doctors were headed to the conference to “present their findings that mRNA and the COVID-19 vaccines are responsible for the explosion of turbo cancers and autoimmune disease wreaking havoc around the world today“.

Fact #3 : Turbo Cancer Does Not Exist

There is no such thing as “turbo cancer”, and after billions of doses have been administered worldwide in the past 3 years – there is still no evidence that any COVID-19 vaccine can cause cancer, or make cancer go “turbo”.

The US National Cancer Institute also clearly states that there is no evidence that any COVID-19 vaccines cause cancer, lead to recurrence, or lead to disease progression. It also pointedly stated that COVID-19 vaccines do not change your DNA.

Fact #4 : The People’s Voice Is Known For Fake News

ABIM revokes Pierre Kory and Paul Marik’s certifications!

Leave a reply

ABIM – the American Board of Internal Medicine, just revoked all board certifications for Pierre Kory and Paul Marik! Here is what you need to know…

ABIM revokes Pierre Kory and Paul Marik’s certifications!

On 4 August 2023, the FLCCC – Front Line COVID-19 Critical Care Alliance, announced that ABIM – the American Board of Internal Medicine, has recommended that two of its co-founders – Paul Marik and Pierre Kory, should have their certifications revoked for spreading “false or inaccurate medical information“.

The FLCCC announced that both Marik and Kory would appeal the committee’s recommendations. Fast forward a year later, it appears that their appeals failed – ABIM officially revoked all board certifications for Pierre Kory and Paul Marik by 9 August 2024!

Dr. Natalia Solenkova – a critical care physician, recently shared on X (formerly Twitter) that the American Board of Internal Medicine (ABIM) finally stripped Paul Marik and Pierre Kory of their board certifications:

Finally, ABIM! These two disinfo doctors have their board certifications REVOKED!

The screenshots she shared clearly showed that both Pierre Kory and Paul Marik had all of their board certifications revoked by ABIM:

Pierre D. Kory

Today’s Date: Aug 09, 2024
ABIM ID: 262789

Current Certifications: None

Initial Certifications:
– Internal Medicine : 2005
– Pulmonary Medicine : 2007
– Critical Care Medicine : 2008

Previously Certified:
– Internal Medicine : Not Certified, Revoked
– Pulmonary Medicine : Not Certified, Revoked
– Critical Care Medicine : Not Certified, Revoked

Paul Ellis Marik

Today’s Date: Aug 09, 2024
ABIM ID: 188450

Current Certifications: None

Initial Certifications:
– Internal Medicine : 1998
– Critical Care Medicine : 1999

Previously Certified:
– Critical Care Medicine : Not Certified, Revoked
– Internal Medicine : Not Certified, Revoked

How will revoked ABIM certifications impact Pierre Kory and Paul Marik?

As the FLCCC pointed out in 2023, the loss of Pierre Kory and Paul Marik’s ABIM certifications do not impact their ability to practice medicine, as medical licences are issued by state medical boards, not ABIM. However, the loss of ABIM certification will nevertheless impact their ability to practice mainstream medicine.

Professional Credibility: Revocation of board certification can severely impact a physician’s professional credibility and reputation. Board certification is often seen as a mark of expertise and competence in a particular field, so losing it can diminish trust among peers, patients, and employers.
Employment and Practice Opportunities: Many hospitals, clinics, and healthcare organizations require board certification for employment or hospital privileges. Revocation can limit job opportunities and affect the physician’s ability to practice medicine in certain settings.
Insurance and Reimbursement: Some insurance companies and health plans require board certification for physicians to participate in their networks or to receive reimbursement for services. Without certification, a physician might face difficulties in obtaining or maintaining these credentials.
Patient Trust and Care: Patients often view board certification as an assurance of quality and expertise. Losing certification might lead to a loss of patient trust and could impact the physician’s patient base.
Legal and Regulatory Issues: In some cases, revocation of board certification could have legal implications, especially if it relates to issues of professional conduct or competency that could also affect licensing or face regulatory scrutiny.
Career Impact: It can have long-term career consequences, affecting the physician’s ability to advance professionally, participate in continuing medical education, or engage in certain professional activities.

That could explain why Pierre Kory launched his own “advanced COVID-19 care centre”, with a “specialised focus” on long COVID consultations. As STAT revealed, an online appointment with a member of his team costs $1,250, which includes an initial video visit and two follow-ups, while meeting with Kory himself costs $1,650.

Did Israel delete or lose 82% of COVID-19 vaccine safety data?!

Did Israel delete or lose 82% of its COVID-19 vaccine safety data, including reports of vaccine side effects?! Take a look at the viral claim, and find out what the facts really are!

Claim : Israel deleted or lost 82% of COVID-19 vaccine safety data!

People are sharing an article (archive) by The People’s Voice (formerly NewsPunch), which claims or suggests that Israel deleted or lost 82% of its COVID-19 vaccine safety data, including reports of vaccine side effects!

Here is excerpts of the article. Feel free to skip to the next section for the facts!

Israel Blames ‘System Malfunction’ For ‘Accidentally Deleting’ Covid Vaccine Safety Data

Israel’s government Health Ministry has announced that 82% of the nation’s official data on Covid side-effects has been lost due to “technical errors and system malfunctions.”

State Comptroller Matanyahu Englman’s office released a report last week criticizing the Health Ministry and revealing that the ministry didn’t process or analyze thousands of reports it had received about various Covid vaccine side effects.

The Comptroller’s office found that many of the vaccine side-effects were severe, including hundreds of women complaining of changes to their menstrual cycle, and thousands of cases of myocarditis and pericarditis, the majority of which resulted in the patient needing to be hospitalized.

However, the Health Ministry lost these reports and according to the Comptroller’s office, it also did not investigate them in a timely manner.

In response to the damning findings in the Comptroller’s report, the Health Ministry said Tuesday that it had “accurately collected all reported instances of side effects,” before claiming that it had collected the data in a “new system” rather than in the ministry’s usual database.

Unfortunately, the “new system” allegedly “malfunctioned” and 82% of the official Covid safety data was lost.

Show less

Truth : Israel did not delete or lose 82% of COVID-19 vaccine safety data!

This is yet another example of fake news created / promoted by The People’s Voice, and here are the reasons why…

Fact #1 : COVID-19 vaccine side effect reports were recorded in different database

Let me start by pointing out that these claims are based on an article by The Times of Israel which reported that the Israel State Comptroller claimed that the Israeli Health Ministry lost 82% of COVID-19 vaccine side effect reports due to “technical errors” and “system malfunctions”.

The truth is – the Israeli Health Ministry was using a new and different computerised reporting system to handle reports of COVID-19 vaccine side effects.

Since the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic, the Ministry initiated the establishment of an additional computerized reporting system in order to facilitate the reporting, and at the time the monitoring continued in the normal system while manually monitoring the reports.

This was also mentioned in the same article by The Times of Israel, so there can be no confusion about the facts:

In response to the findings detailed in the report, the Health Ministry said Tuesday that it had accurately collected all reported instances of side effects, saying that it had collected the data in a new system rather than in the ministry’s usual database.

Fact #2 : COVID-19 vaccine side effect database did not malfunction

The People’s Voice claimed that the new Israeli system for recording COVID-19 vaccine side effect reports “malfunctioned”.

However, that’s not true – The Times of Israel article never made that claim. Neither did the Israeli Health Ministry ever say that its new computerised system “malfunctioned”.

Unsurprisingly, The People’s Voice article did not provide any evidence that 82% of the COVID-19 vaccine reports were lost because the new computerised system “malfunctioned”.

Fact #3 : All Vaccine Side Effect Reports Were Checked

The Israeli Health Ministry refuted the State Comptroller’s report, stating that “all the reports received… from the HMOs were checked“. It explained that reports that did not contain critical information, or were not related to COVID-19, were “manually checked and analysed by its employees.

The Health Ministry also explained that it created a new form for reporting COVID-19 vaccine side effects, which was analysed by an additional professional team “in real time”. Those findings were then published in full transparency:

All the reports received on the interface from the HMOs were checked. Since there were dozens of reports that did not contain critical information or were not at all related to COVID-19, it was agreed that the reports would be reported manually and analyzed by the employees of the Ministry of Health.

In addition, in order to improve direct reports from citizens, during the pandemic, the Ministry created an identifiable form in which side effects after COVID-19 vaccination could be reported and recruited an additional professional team to analyze the findings in real time. These were also published in full transparency to the public.

The Health Ministry also followed reports of side effects “in real time”, which allowed it to be the first to identify and report side effects of mRNA vaccines like myocarditis, and publish it transparently to the public.

Fact #4 : Most vaccine side effects were minor

Interestingly, The People’s Voice article pointed out that the Comptroller’s office found that “many of the vaccine side-effects were severe“. That’s not true.

The Comptroller’s Office actually found that the “the majority of the side effects… were mild” symptoms like “low fever and pain at the vaccine site“.

Fact #5 : Israel Health Ministry failed to combat fake news

Ironically, the State Comptroller’s report criticised the Israeli Health Ministry for failing to combat “false information and anti-vaccination propaganda” during the COVID-19 pandemic.

It also noted that the Health Ministry’s failure to prevent anti-vaccine misinformation from spreading may have resulted in increased skepticism towards vaccines in general. The report suggested that the Health Ministry should work with the National Public Diplomacy Directorate to formulate a strategy to combat misinformation during times of emergency, like another outbreak or pandemic.

The People’s Voice is the current name for NewsPunch, which possibly changed its name because its brand has been so thoroughly discredited after posting numerous shocking but fake stories.

Did vaccine inventor admit mRNA would depopulate world?!

Leave a reply

Did COVID-19 vaccine inventor Professor John Bell admit that the mRNA vaccines were designed to depopulate the world?! Take a look at the viral claim, and find out what the facts really are!

Claim : Vaccine inventor admits mRNA would depopulate world!

People are sharing an article (archive) by The People’s Voice (formerly NewsPunch), which claims that COVID-19 vaccine inventor Professor John Bell just admitted that the mRNA vaccines were designed to depopulate the world

Here is an excerpt of the (intentionally?) confusing article. Feel free to skip to the next section for the facts!

Covid Vaccine Inventor Blows Whistle: ‘mRNA Was Designed To Depopulate the World’

The Covid vaccine was designed to sterilize the masses and depopulate the world, according to the inventor of the ill-fated Oxford Covid vaccine who has blown the whistle on the elite’s real agenda behind the shots.

Professor Sir John Bell, the head of the Oxford vaccine, has blown the whistle on the real purpose of the mRNA vaccines which were promoted and distributed by the likes of Anthony Fauci and Bill Gates and rolled out to billions of people around the world, many of whom were mandated to get vaccinated by their authoritarian governments.

During a seemingly routine interview on British TV, Professor Bell slipped in a jaw-dropping revelation that confirmed what many of us have known all along.

That’s right – there are far too many people in the world and the vaccines were designed to cull the hred and depopulate the world to a level acceptable to the elites

According to Bell, the Covid vaccines are in the process of “sterilizing 60 to 70% of the world’s population.”

The moment is surreal as Bell speaks, oblivious to the live broadcast, only to be met with a look of absolute horror and panic on his colleague’s face.

The broadcast was cut short, Professor Bell will never be allowed to appear on mainstream media again, but the damage has been done.

Show less

Truth : Vaccine inventor did not admit mRNA would depopulate world!

This is yet another example of fake news created / promoted by The People’s Voice, and here are the reasons why…

Fact #1 : Professor Bell did not admit mRNA would depopulate the world

Professor Sir John Irving Bell did not admit or claim that the mRNA vaccines were designed to sterilise the masses and depopulate the world.

For one thing – if he said that, it would have triggered an uproar, and there would have been investigations all over the world. The truth is – his words were taken out of context, and (intentionally?) misrepresented.

During a Channel 4 interview, presenter Jon Snow asked Professor Bell when would people be able to get the COVID-19 vaccine, to which the professor responded:

A lot of this depends on the intensity of infection. So, in order to get a readout, you have to have a certain number of incident cases in the control vaccine population. And that then tells you that you can look at the real vaccinated population and see whether they’ve been protected. So, I’m hoping that’s going to happen pretty smartly this autumn.

But then, don’t forget – these vaccines are unlikely to completely sterilise the population. They’re very likely to have an effect which works in a percentage, say 60 or 70 percent. We will have to look quite carefully, and the regulators will have to look quite carefully that it’s done, what we needed to do, before it gets approved.

So there will be a delay between the outcome of the [clinical] trial, and the decision on whether it can approved as a vaccine. Anything that happens to undermine the legitimacy of regulators to make independent decisions is, in my view, profoundly unhelpful.

As you can see, Professor Bell was speaking strictly about whether the COVID-19 vaccines being tested would be good enough to protect people against infections. He never once mention any potential impact on reproduction or fertility.

While Professor Bell did mention “sterilise the population“, he was referring to the ability of the vaccines to medical term – “sterilising immunity“, which refers to the ability of a vaccine to eliminate the pathogen before it replicates in the host.

Fact #2 : The interview was posted on 24 August 2020

I should point out that this claim is based on a very old Channel 4 interview from 24 August 2020, which has been debunked numerous times since then.

Why The People’s Voice would repeat this long-debunked claim in August 2024 – almost 4 years later???

Fact #3 : COVID-19 vaccines do not cause infertility

When Channel 4 conducted its interview with Professor Bell, the mRNA vaccines were still undergoing clinical trials, so it was impossible for anyone to know (at that time) whether they cause infertility issues in vaccinated people.

Several months later, the clinical trial results show that the COVID-19 vaccines were safe and effective, and they were approved for mass vaccination. Since then, additional research have shown that COVID-19 vaccines do not affect fertility.

As the US CDC explains, recent studies have found “no differences” in fertility between vaccinated women, or women who survived COVID-19, and women who were not infected by COVID-19. It also pointed out that a study of more than 2,000 females aged 21-45 years and their partners, showed that COVID-19 vaccination did not affect their fertility.

In addition, the world population continues to increase in 2024 – at 0.91% per year, up from 0.88% in 2023. That would not be possible if COVID-19 vaccines cause infertility.

Fact #4 : Professor Bell refuted those claims in 2021

Professor John Bell refuted those claims in April 2021, when he told AAP Factcheck that he was referring to how vaccines can “sterilise” a community from COVID-19 by preventing the virus from spreading.

I was referring to the ability of the vaccines to completely eliminate viral replication (ie sterilise) and (it) had no relevance to fertility.

Why would The People’s Voice revive this false claim in August 2024???

Fact #5 : Professor Bell never mentioned mRNA vaccines

I should also point out that Professor John Bell never even mentioned the mRNA vaccines. He was speaking about COVID-19 vaccines in general, and the Oxford-AstraZeneca COVID-19 vaccine that he was helping to develop.

Professor Bell was not part of the teams developing the mRNA vaccines, and he would not know anything about their efficacy and side effects. More so since the mRNA COVID-19 vaccines were still undergoing clinical trials at that time!

Why COVID-19 vaccine autopsy paper got retracted again!

Leave a reply

Find out why the controversial autopsy paper which claims to show that 74% of deaths were due to the COVID-19 vaccine got retracted again!

COVID-19 Vaccine Autopsy Paper Got Retracted Again!

People are sharing a post (archive) on X (formerly Twitter) by the McCullough Foundation, which announced that its autopsy paper which claims to show that 74% of deaths were due to the COVID-19 vaccines is being retracted for the “second” time!

McCullough Foundation:

BREAKING – Elsevier and Forensic Science International to CENSOR and RETRACT our groundbreaking autopsy study, marking the second censorship attempt following its initial suppression on the LANCET preprint server.

This represents a flagrant violation of COPE (Committee on Publication Ethics) guidelines.

The Biopharmaceutical complex does not want people to know that COVID-19 vaccines cause death. Their heinous actions to hide the truth will greatly backfire.

To be retracted shortly

Why COVID-19 Vaccine Autopsy Paper Got Retracted Again!

I have earlier covered in detail why this controversial autopsy paper which claims to show that 74% of deaths were due to the COVID-19 vaccines got retracted again.

I highly encourage you to read both pieces, but in case you are short of time, here’s a quick summary why it was inevitable that this COVID-19 vaccine autopsy paper would get retracted by any reputable scientific journal.

This was a “revised” version of an earlier preprint paper, which was removed by The Lancet in July 2023, because the paper violated its screening criteria, and its conclusions were not supported.
The authors only went through other people’s papers on autopsies, and made personal judgements on what caused those deaths, based solely on what they read.
They only looked at vaccinated people, and excluded unvaccinated people, which introduces bias, and makes it impossible to determine if there is even a signal that those deaths were due to the COVID-19 vaccines.
They did not mention using any objective and standardised criteria for determining whether a death is caused by the COVID-19 vaccine.
When the same group of researchers posted a review of 28 autopsies that they determined were “likely caused by COVID-19 vaccination”, it was found that many of them had unrelated causes of death!
The mean age of death was 70.4 years, which meant that most of the people in this study were elderly. Is it any surprise that the elderly were dying from cardiovascular, haematological, or respiratory problems???

In short, there are so many problems with this paper that it is truly surprising it even passed peer review and was published in Forensic Science International.

While the study authors are claiming “censorship”, the retraction of a flawed study is not censorship. It is simply part of the scientific review process, albeit a belated correction.

You might have thought that FSI editors would be more wary after a preprint version of this paper with the same title from the same group of researchers got kicked out of Preprints with The Lancet.

While I’m glad this incredibly flawed paper is finally being retracted, I wished I could say it was better late than never. The truth is – this is like shutting the barn door after the horses have bolted.

The authors and anti-vaccine activists have already squeezed whatever publicity, prestige, page views, etc. they can get out of its publication. No one is going to do an apology tour after this paper gets retracted.

Fully Vaccinated Fox News Reporter and Wife Announce They Both Have Turbo Cancer

Emmy Award winning Fox 4 morning reporter Matt Stewart has announced that he and his wife Chrissy have been diagnosed with turbo cancer.

Matt and Chrissy Stewart were both fully vaccinated and Matt was a prominent campaigner in Kansas City through his work as a TV news anchor in promoting the Covid-19 mRNA vaccines to the population

Rare cancers are exploding in number around the world and behaving in aggressive and unpredictable ways never before seen, according to leading oncologist Dr. William Makis who says that some of his young and healthy patients have died “days or even hours” after diagnosis.

Truth : Fox News reporter and wife did not announce they have turbo cancer!

This is yet another example of fake news created / promoted by The People’s Voice, and here are the reasons why…

Fact #1 : Matt Stewart and his wife did not announce they have turbo cancer!

Let me start by simply pointing out that Fox 4 reporter Matt Stewart and his wife did not announce that they were both diagnosed with turbo cancer.

On Tuesday, 23 July 2024, Matt Stewart announced that he was just diagnosed with a brain tumour, while his wife Chrissy was battling her own life-threatening cancer:

Friends, I have some devastating news to share with all of you. I have been feeling a little off mentally lately – dizzy, nauseous, a little double vision.

On Sunday morning, I asked Chrissy to take me to the ER. They did a CT scan on my brain and found a mass in my cerebellum. They scanned the rest of my body and found smaller masses in my lungs, on the L1 of my spine, and on a lymph node outside my rectum.

At no point in time, did Matt Stewart or his wife ever claim that they were both diagnosed with turbo cancer. In fact, the term “turbo cancer” never appeared even a single time in their Facebook posts.

Unsurprisingly, The People’s Voice article did not provide any evidence to back up its “fact checked” claim.

Fact #2 : Turbo Cancer Does Not Exist

I should point out that there is no such thing as “turbo cancer”, and after billions of doses have been administered worldwide in the past 3.5 years – there is still no evidence that any COVID-19 vaccine can cause cancer, or make cancer go “turbo”.

As Matt Stewart himself pointed out, “colon cancer is the third most common cancer” worldwide. So it is not surprising that he would be diagnosed with colon cancer, with a secondary tumour in his brain.

Needless to say, anti-vaccine activists are still unable to provide any evidence to back their claims that vaccinated people are dying from turbo cancer. Ironically, they even accused unvaccinated people (and fellow anti-vaxxers) like Kirstie Alley of dying from turbo cancer!

Fact #3 : Matt Stewart Was Diagnosed With Cancer In 2020

As Stewart explained, doctors suspected that his brain tumour was a secondary (metastasis) from his prior colon cancer.

We are waiting on the biopsy to determine the exact type of cancer it is, though they are leaning toward colon cancer. They believe a microscopic cancer cell survived my surgery from three and a half years ago and metastasized throughout my body.

They would later confirm that it was colon cancer, with secondaries in his lungs and elsewhere in his body, in addition to the brain tumour that was surgically removed. And here’s the kicker – Matt Stewart was diagnosed with colon cancer in September 2020 – before the COVID-19 vaccines were approved!

I recently went in for a colonoscopy. Didn’t want to but my wife insisted. I’m only 45, I argued. I’ll wait until I’m 50. I’m healthy. I eat well. I work out. She didn’t care. She threatened to make the appointment for me, so I finally went in. And guess what?

They found cancer. Yup. They found cancer cells on a polyp in my colon.

This past month I’ve undergone a battery of tests to figure out just how bad this cancer might be. We feared the worst. Fortunately, it appears we caught it at the very beginning stages. It hasn’t spread. I will undergo surgery next week to cut out a small piece of my colon and after recovery, I should be fine.

It is therefore impossible for Matt Stewart’s cancer to be caused by the COVID-19 vaccines, because none were approved in September 2020, when he was first diagnosed. So he could not have been vaccinated against COVID-19 when he was diagnosed with colon cancer… unless the dastardly vaccines used a time machine???

Fact #4 : Chrissy Stewart Started Getting Symptoms In May 2021

As for Matt Stewart’s wife, she started experiencing symptoms around Labor Day – May 2021, feeling bloated because a tumour was filling up her belly, and pushing up against her ribs, bladder and other internal organs (source).

She eventually underwent surgical removal of the tumour, and was diagnosed with angiosarcoma of the ovary, which had already spread and could not be cured.

While the COVID-19 vaccine was already being administered by the time Chrissy started becoming symptomatic, it is unknown if she was vaccinated by then, as only 35% of people in Kansas City received a single dose by May 2021 (source).

In all likelihood, the tumour had been developing for months before she noticed the symptoms in May 2021, and it would have occurred before she received her COVID-19 vaccine.

Is Bill Gates adding mRNA to our food?!

Claim : Bill Gates Is Adding mRNA To Our Food!

People are sharing an article (archive) by The People’s Voice (formerly NewsPunch), which claims that Bill Gates just convinced the government to “force jab” the public by adding mRNA to our food!

Here is an excerpt of the (intentionally?) confusing article. Feel free to skip to the next section for the facts!

Bill Gates Convinces Gov’t To ‘Force-Jab’ Public By Adding mRNA To Everyday Food Items

Globalist billionaire and self-appointed world health czar Bill Gates has convinced the government to allow him to “force-jab” the public by adding mRNA to essential and everyday food items consumed by everybody in society.

According to Gates, the future of vaccination looks more like taking a breath of fresh air, drinking a glass of water, or eating a salad than getting a shot in the arm.

Gates and the Big Pharma cartel understand that the public are actively opposed to receiving regular mRNA booster shots, so they are finding new and deceitful ways to force vaxx the public without consent.

Healthy and fresh farm produce including lettuce and tomatoes have been hijacked by the elite to act as inconspicuous mRNA delivery systems as the campaign to destroy public health and depopulate the planet goes into overdrive.

Fast forward to 2024 and there is now mRNA in lettuce and tomatoes and lawmakers around the US are moving to legislate for and against mRNA in the food supply.

Bill Gates’ latest venture to mass vaccinate billions of people around the globe with his mRNA ‘air vaccine’ has been given the green-light by multiple governments following a Yale study.

The air vaccine will “indiscriminately” force jab the entire planet with mRNA, delivering the toxic chemicals straight into a person’s lungs.

So we now know that Gates is spraying us from above, slipping mRNA into our lettuce and tomatoes and meat products.

Show less

Truth : Bill Gates Is Adding mRNA To Our Food!

This is yet another example of fake news created / promoted by The People’s Voice, and here are the reasons why…

Fact #1 : Bill Gates Isn’t Adding mRNA To Our Food

Let me start by simply pointing out that Bill Gates did not convince the government (which one???) to “force jab” the public by adding mRNA to essential and everyday food items.

If such a plot exists, it would have been widely reported by the mainstream media, not by a well-known fake news website! In fact, it would have triggered a criminal investigation! Yet none of that happened, because… it was all made up!

Unsurprisingly, The People’s Voice article did not provide any evidence to back up its “fact checked” claim.

Fact #2 : All Our Food Already Have mRNA

Let me start by pointing out that all of the food we consume today contain mRNA.

mRNA (messenger RNA) isn’t a scary, new thing. It exists in living things, and everything we eat. It would be impossible to eat anything that does not contain mRNA!

Fact #3 : mRNA Vaccines In Food Wouldn’t Work

Adding mRNA vaccines to food would not work, because mRNA is actually very fragile, and is easily destroyed. In fact, the biggest challenge in developing mRNA vaccines was to protect it from being destroyed by the body!

Any mRNA vaccine that you consume will be destroyed by enzymes long before it can be absorbed into our body, never mind actually enter our cells. That’s the same reason why mRNA that already exists in our food do not enter our cells.

Fact #4 : Bill Gates Post Is Fake!

The cover image used in The People’s Voice article and video has a screenshot which purportedly shows Bill Gates posting on X (formerly Twitter) that:

Soon, everybody will have mRNA running through their veins.

That is a fake screenshot, because there is no such post on X by Bill Gates! If Bill Gates actually made such a shocking post, it would have been reported by the media across the world, and mocked and criticised on social media. After all – we all have mRNA running through our veins!

But of course, that didn’t happen, because Bill Gates never made such a bizarre post! Why would The People’s Voice article use a fake screenshot???

A major investigation by Canadian researchers into excess mortality during the COVID-19 pandemic found that patterns of excess death globally could not be explained by a pandemic respiratory virus, The Defender reported last week.

Instead, the authors concluded the major causes of death globally stemmed from the public health establishment’s response, including lockdowns, harmful medical interventions and the COVID-19 vaccines.

The study by researchers from the nonprofit Correlation Research in the Public Interest analyzed excess mortality in 125 countries — about 35% of the global population — during the COVID-19 pandemic, beginning with the March 11, 2020, World Health Organization (WHO) pandemic declaration and ending on May 5, 2023, when the WHO declared the pandemic over.

The investigation concluded that “nothing special would have occurred in terms of mortality had a pandemic not been declared and had the declaration not been acted upon.”

The 521-page analysis — by Denis Rancourt, Ph.D., former physics professor and lead scientist for 23 years at the University of Ottawa, Correlation’s president Joseph Hickey, Ph.D., and Christian Linard, Ph.D., from the University of Quebec at Trois-Rivières — was published July 19.

Five takeaways from largest pandemic excess mortality study to date

1. Vaccines caused approximately 17 million deaths and vaccine toxicity increased with age and number of doses.

2. Pandemic interventions led to about 30.9 million deaths globally and vaccines didn’t prevent any deaths.

3. Many deaths were linked to respiratory viruses that could have been treated, but treatment was withheld.

4. There was essentially no excess mortality before the WHO declared a pandemic.

5. An ‘elegant’ methodology for analyzing all-cause and excess mortality.

Truth : 125-country study did not show vaccines killed 17 million people!

In this article, I will go through some of their points, and show you what the facts really are!

Fact #1 : It Appears To Be A “Refreshed” Self-Published Report

First, let’s start by pointing out that the paper in question (archive) is not a published scientific report. It is just another self-published report by Correlation Research in the Public Interest.

Also, the study does not appear to be new. Rather, it appears to be a “refreshed” version of their September 2023 report, which also claimed that COVID-19 vaccines killed 17 million people.

Fact #2 : It Has Not Been Peer-Reviewed

Like their previous report, there is no indication that this “refreshed” report has undergone even the basic peer review process.

In other words – subject matter experts have yet to inspect their data and findings, never mind verify and authenticate them. Interestingly, Children’s Health Defense failed to point this out in its very long article. Oops? Perhaps this should have been mentioned, no?

Fact #3 : There Was No Causal Link To Vaccines

The World Mortality Dataset is a big and critical tool for tracking all cause mortality for many countries around the world. However, it is ultimately just a database of all-cause mortality.

There is no way it can be used to demonstrate the causality of any particular cause of death. After all, it only tracks all-cause mortality! It doesn’t differentiate between death from a car accident or a fall, from death from COVID-19, or death from a vaccine injury.

So there is simply no way for anyone to use the World Mortality Dataset to determine the cause of any excess mortality. That would be like using data on all deaths from traffic accidents to claim that excess deaths were somehow caused by the use of electric vehicles. Doesn’t make sense? PRECISELY!

Perhaps that’s why the refreshed report is an insane 521 pages long – almost 3x longer than the previous report with its already crazy 180 pages. It’s like they were trying to mask their lack of conclusive data with nonsensical verbiage…

Fact #4 : World Mortality Dataset Study Identified COVID-19 As Cause

The two researchers who maintained the World Mortality Dataset (WMD) actually published a peer-reviewed study in the eLife journal, on 30 June 2021.

Unlike this “refreshed” Correlation Research report, this was an actual peer-reviewed study, published in a journal and the NIH National Library of Medicine. It was also written by the two people who knows the WMD database best – the very people maintaining and updating it!

Both Ariel Kaplinsky and Dmitry Kobak used their WMD data to look at the impact of COVID-19 on the all-cause mortality from 103 countries, and here was what they found:

We found that in several worst-affected countries (Peru, Ecuador, Bolivia, Mexico) the excess mortality was above 50% of the expected annual mortality (Peru, Ecuador, Bolivia, Mexico) or above 400 excess deaths per 100,000 population (Peru, Bulgaria, North Macedonia, Serbia). At the same time, in several other countries (e.g. Australia and New Zealand) mortality during the pandemic was below the usual level, presumably due to social distancing measures decreasing the non-COVID infectious mortality

Summing up the excess mortality estimates across all countries in our dataset gives 4.0 million excess deaths. In contrast, summing up the official COVID-19 death counts gives 2.9 million deaths, corresponding to the global undercount ratio of 1.4.

In other words – many people were likely being killed by COVID-19 infections, which appear to be undercounted by some 40%.

To be clear – their data do not show COVID-19 vaccines causing those deaths, never mind 17 million deaths!

Fact #5 : Correlation Does Not Imply Causation

It is also important to point out that just because there is a spike in excess deaths during the COVID-19 pandemic, it does not mean that the COVID-19 vaccines, or pandemic measures (like requiring face masks to be worn, or lockdowns) taken by various governments, were the cause.

For example, if you get pregnant after getting an mRNA vaccination, does it mean that the vaccine made you pregnant? Of course, not. It’s the same silly argument being made with the results of this South Korean study.

How can anyone establish any “causal relationship” between the spike in excess deaths during the COVID-19 pandemic and the mRNA vaccines based on these results? No one can, and that is why this ridiculously long report is just utter nonsense.

Did study show mRNA vaccines cause autoimmune diseases?!

Leave a reply

Did a new Korean study show that the mRNA COVID-19 vaccines can cause certain autoimmune diseases?! Take a look at the viral claims, and find out what the facts really are!

Claim : Study show mRNA vaccines cause autoimmune diseases!

Some people are sharing a South Korean study by Seung-Won Jung et. al., suggesting that it shows that mRNA COVID-19 vaccines can cause certain autoimmune diseases!

McCullough Foundation : NEW STUDY – COVID-19 mRNA injections are associated with an increased risk of developing certain autoimmune diseases, including systemic lupus erythematosus, alopecia areata, psoriasis, and rheumatoid arthritis

This population-based cohort study involves 9,258,803 individuals and includes up to one year of observation time.

The authors conclude, “long-term monitoring is necessary after mRNA vaccination for the development of autoimmune connective tissue diseases (AI-CTDs).”

Chief Nerd : “Our study found that booster vaccination was associated with an increased risk of developing certain autoimmune connective tissue diseases (AI-CTDs), such as alopecia areata, psoriasis, and rheumatoid arthritis, albeit the effect size was small. This finding could be associated with autoimmune flare-ups following repeated mRNA vaccination, which can cause subclinical diseases to become active and diagnosed. The result of our study may indicate the necessity for additional monitoring when administering booster vaccinations.”

Shaun Barcavage, FNP-BC : Long-term risk of autoimmune diseases after mRNA-based SARS-CoV2 vaccination in a Korean, nationwide, population-based cohort study “However, we observed an increased risk of developing some AI-CTDs after booster vaccination.”

Show less

Truth : Study does not show mRNA vaccines cause autoimmune diseases!

This is yet another example of anti-vaccine misinformation being propagated online, and here are the reasons why…

Fact #1 : Study does not show mRNA vaccines cause autoimmune diseases

Let me start by pointing out that you can read the entire paper by Seung-Won Jung et. al., called Long-term risk of autoimmune diseases after mRNA-based SARS-CoV2 vaccination in a Korean, nationwide, population-based cohort study.

This is a large study in which the authors compared the risk of developing certain autoimmune diseases based on historical data (for 2 years prior to mRNA vaccinations), compared to two years after mRNA vaccinations.

Despite suggestions that this study showed that mRNA vaccines for COVID-19 can cause autoimmune diseases, that’s not really the case. The authors specifically pointed this out in the abstract, right on the first page:

Overall, we conclude that mRNA-based vaccinations are not associated with an increased risk of most AI-CTDs, although further research is needed regarding its potential association with certain conditions.

They did find some signals that warrant further research, but nothing that would actually prove that mRNA vaccines cause autoimmune diseases.

Fact #2 : Data shows mRNA vaccines reduced risk for many autoimmune diseases

The data shared in this study suggest that mRNA vaccines may increase the risk of developing two autoimmune diseases:

systemic lupus erythematosus, and
bullous pemphigoid

But conversely, the data also suggest that mRNA vaccines may reduce the risk of developing five autoimmune diseases:

primary cicatricial alopecia
psoriasis
Behcet disease
Crohn disease
Rheumatoid arthritis

Does this mean that the mRNA vaccines can therefore “prevent” autoimmune diseases? Of course, not. Just because the data “appears” to show an increased or reduced risk in developing certain autoimmune diseases, that does not mean the mRNA vaccines are necessarily the reason.

Fact #3 : COVID-19 Infection May Be A Factor

I should also point out that COVID-19 infections may be a factor in the increased risk of developing some autoimmune diseases post-vaccination. This is important as the study authors themselves pointed out that prior studies have suggested that “COVID-19 infections increase the risk of patients developing autoimmune diseases“.

It appears that they may have attempted to “fix that” by filtering out COVID-19 infections from the vaccinated cohort. However, they could only accomplish this based on reported COVID-19 diagnoses.

Therefore, it is more than plausible that a substantial number of people in the vaccinated cohort may have undiagnosed COVID-19 infections, especially since unvaccinated people do experience mild or subclinical COVID-19 infections. Such patients are often undiagnosed, as they have mild or no symptoms, and are therefore unaware that they are infected.

In short – the increased risk in vaccination people may ultimately be due to undiagnosed COVID-19 infections. Hence, the need for “more research” and not just jumping to conclusions!

Fact #4 : Correlation Is Not Causation

It is also important to point out that just because the data appears to show some kind of correlation between mRNA vaccines and an increased risk in developing certain autoimmune diseases, it does not mean the mRNA vaccines are necessary the cause.

How can anyone establish any “causal relationship” between the increased risk in two autoimmune diseases and the mRNA vaccines based on these results? Similarly, no one can use these results to claim that mRNA vaccines prevent five autoimmune diseases!

Did WEF officially declare bird flu as international pandemic?!

Leave a reply

Did the WEF just officially declare the bird flu as an international pandemic?! Take a look at the viral claim, and find out what the facts really are!

Claim : WEF Declares Bird Flu An International Pandemic!

People are sharing an article (archive) by The People’s Voice (formerly NewsPunch), which claims that the WEF just declared the bird flu as an international pandemic!

Here is an excerpt of the long and (intentionally?) confusing article. Feel free to skip to the next section for the facts!

WEF Officially Declares Bird Flu an ‘International Pandemic’

The World Economic Forum has declared bird flu to be an international pandemic, and has ordered world governments to begin culling billions of chickens.

In America, Colorado has become the first state to enact emergency powers due to the outbreak, and has ordered farmers to slaughter millions of chickens to stop transmission of the disease.

Democrat Gov. Jared Polis announced the disaster emergency declaration last week which “unlocks the resources necessary to help affected poultry facilities respond to and contain outbreaks of avian flu.”

As a result of the incident, 1.78 million chickens will be killed at the Weld County facility where the outbreak occurred, with an afflicted worker reportedly recovering after testing positive and cattle also being affected.

The mass slaughter of close to 2 million chickens prompted concern on social media over the nation’s already beleaguered food supply.

Colorado’s emergency bird flu declaration follows news earlier this month the U.S. government will fund the development of a Moderna bird flu “vaccine” to the tune of $176 million.

The country of Finland also announced late last month they would offer vaccinations for bird flu, despite no documented cases of animal-to-human transmission.

The outbreak is also is drawing comparisons to the beginning of the Covid-19 pandemic, with some fearing it could be used as a pretext to interrupt the 2024 election similar to the Covid pandemic.

Truth : WEF Did Not Declare Bird Flu An International Pandemic!

This is yet another example of fake news created / promoted by The People’s Voice, and here are the reasons why…

Fact #1 : WEF Did Not Declare Bird Flu As An International Pandemic!

Let me start by simply pointing out that the World Economic Forum (WEF) did not declare bird flu as an international pandemic. There was no such announcement by the WEF.

If the World Economic Forum actually made such an announcement, it would have been reported worldwide. Yet, there was no such report by the mainstream media… because it was all made up!

In fact, the The People’s Voice article only mentioned the World Economic Forum twice – in its title, and the lede. Thereafter, it never mentioned the WEF, or provide any evidence to support its claim.

Fact #2 : WEF Cannot Declare Any Pandemic

I should also point out that the World Economic Forum cannot declare any pandemic. The WEF is only an international non-governmental organisation (NGO) that focuses on public-private sector collaboration.

The WEF is not a health organisation with the power or authority to declare a pandemic… like the World Health Organization (WHO).

So why on Earth would anyone believe its claim that the WEF just declared bird flu as an international pandemic???

Fact #3 : The People’s Voice Is Known For Fake News

Did Mike Heslin Die Suddenly From Vaccine Cardiac Arrest?!

Leave a reply

Did Mike Heslin just die suddenly from cardiac arrest caused by the COVID-19 vaccine?! Take a look at the viral claims, and find out what the facts really are!

Claim : Mike Heslin Died Suddenly From Vaccine Cardiac Arrest!

Right after news broke that Mike Heslin died suddenly at just 30 years of age, some people immediately claimed or suggested the actor died from cardiac arrest caused by the COVID-19 vaccine!

The People’s Voice : Fully Jabbed Hollywood Actor Mike Heslin Dies Suddenly – Doctors Baffled

No Evidence Mike Heslin Died Suddenly From Vaccine Cardiac Arrest!

It is now tradition for anti-vaccine activists to immediately blame all injuries or deaths on the COVID-19 vaccines. Here are the reasons why this is yet another example of fake news about the COVID-19 vaccines…

Fact #1 : Mike Heslin’s Official Cause Of Death Is Still Unknown

Let me start by pointing out that Mike Heslin’s official cause of death has not yet been revealed. Certainly, no one actually said that Mike Heslin died from cardiac arrest or a heart attack.

His husband, Scotty Dynamo (born Nicolas James Wilson) only announced on Instagram, that Heslin died from “an unexpected cardiac event after a week long battle in the hospital“.

While it is possible that Mike Heslin suffered from a sudden cardiac arrest, there has been no official confirmation from his husband, or family, about his actual cause of death. He could have died from other cardiac events like a heart attack, a congenital heart disease, arrhythmias like ventricular fibrillation, etc.

Fact #2 : No Evidence His Death Was Caused By COVID-19 Vaccines

Mike Heslin’s husband never said that COVID-19 vaccines caused his death. So why should we listen to random strangers on the Internet claiming otherwise???

Are they the doctors who treated him? His close family members who would be privy to his medical history, and official cause of death? No. So why should you listen to them?

More importantly – none of those making such claims have provided any evidence that Mike Heslin’s death was caused in any way by the COVID-19 vaccines.

Fact #3 : Mike Heslin Was Fully-Vaccinated Against COVID-19

Both Mike Heslin and his husband, Scotty Dynamo, were vaccinated against COVID-19. They posted a photo of themselves with their vaccination card on 5 April 2021.

However, that does not mean the COVID-19 vaccine caused his death. After all, many people who were injured or died suddenly were actually unvaccinated, like Kris Jordan, Aaron Carter, Kirstie Alley, Stephan Bonnar, Grayson Murray, Shane Macaulay, David Wayne Burleson, and Kaden Clymer.

Fact #4 : Many Young People Die Suddenly From Cardiac Arrest

What many people don’t realise is that many healthy young people are at risk of dying from sudden cardiac arrest (SCA). On average, about 2,000 young people in the United States (less than 24 years old) die from sudden cardiac arrest every year, and many do not have previously-known heart disease.

That’s why many states in the United States enacted laws requiring automated external defibrillators (AED) to be made available in health clubs, gyms, schools, and other public places.

Fact #5 : Vaccine Side Effects Appear With Hours / Days

Even though Mike Heslin was fully-vaccinated against COVID-19, he would have received his doses more three years ago! He cannot possibly have suffered from a vaccine side effect, because they appear within hours or days, not years later.

The spike proteins produced by the COVID-19 vaccines also do not stick around for months. If these spike proteins are permanent (as antivaxxers claim), we would have lifelong immunity.

Truth : Celine Dion Did Not Get Stiff Person Syndrome From Vaccine!

It’s now tradition for anti-vaccination activists to immediately blame all celebrity deaths or illnesses on the COVID-19 vaccine.

This is yet another example of FAKE NEWS created or propagated by anti-vaccination activists, and here are the reasons why…

Fact #1 : Celine Dion Did Not Get Stiff Person Syndrome From Vaccine!

Let me just start by pointing out that Celine Dion most definitely did not develop Stiff Person Syndrome from the COVID-19 vaccine… because she had been suffering from it for over a decade!

Céline Dion (born Céline Marie Claudette Dion on 30 March, 1968) announced in an emotional video on 8 December 2022, that she had been struggling with health issues for a long time. In fact, she first developed signs and symptoms of Stiff Person Syndrome more than 14 years earlier!

In a 23 May 2024 interview with Vogue, Céline Dion shared how she first noticed symptoms of the rare disorder. It was 2008 and Dion was on her “Taking Chances World” tour, when she shared, “quite rapidly, I was having difficulty controlling my voice“.

Then, during her Las Vegas residency and five more tours, she noticed her muscles stiffening and she eventually needed support while walking.

In a 11 June 2024 interview with Hoda Kotb on the Today show, Celine Dion also revealed that she ignored her condition to care for her ailing husband, who was suffering from throat cancer, as well as her family. She also tried to hide her condition from her family, but eventually, her symptoms became too much to ignore:

My husband as well was fighting for his own life. I had to raise my kids, I had to hide. I had to try to be a hero.

Feeling my body leaving me, holding on to my own dreams… I could not do this anymore. Lying for me, the burden was too much. Lying to the people who got me where I am today, I could not do it anymore.

It was only when the COVID-19 pandemic hit that Céline Dion was forced to slow down her pace, and it gave her time to finally get some answers.

When the pandemic arrived, I said to myself, the universe makes no mistakes, and I will take this time — this opportunity — to search.

After additional testing, her doctors finally diagnosed her with Stiff Person Syndrome (SPS) – a rare and incurable neurological disorder with features of an autoimmune disease.

Her symptoms became so “severe and persistent” that on 19 October 2021, she delayed her Las Vegas residency. Then on 15 January 2022, she was forced to cancel the US and Canadian concerts from 9 March to 22 April 2022.

To be clear – Celine Dion first noticed symptoms of Stiff Person Syndrome more than 11 years before the COVID-19 pandemic, and more than 13 years before COVID-19 vaccines became widely available. Her condition also progressively deteriorated years before the COVID-19 pandemic and vaccines.

So she definitely did not develop Stiff Person Syndrome from the COVID-19 vaccine, and neither did the COVID-19 vaccine exacerbate her condition.

Fact #2 : COVID-19 Vaccines Do Not Cause Stiff Person Syndrome

Many anti-vaccination activists are pointing out that Stiff Person Syndrome (SPS) is one of the 1,291 Adverse Events of Special Interest (AESI) found in 9 pages of a Pfizer document that was released by the FDA.

As I explained back in March 2022, the “List of Adverse Events of Special Interest” (AESI) is NOT a list of side effects caused by the Pfizer mRNA vaccine. Rather, that was a list of 1,291 potential adverse events that Pfizer was specifically looking for when vaccinated people send in their reports through VAERS or the Yellow Card systems.

Just because Stiff Person Syndrome is in the AESI list does not mean the vaccine causes it. It is just one of the many adverse events Pfizer wanted their post-authorisation safety teams to look out for. To be clear – there is no evidence that any COVID-19 vaccine can possibly cause Stiff Person Syndrome.

Fact #3 : AESI List Is Generic + Includes Irrelevant Adverse Events

While anti-vaccination activists keep insisting that the AESI list is a list of Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine side effects, that’s nonsense. The AESI list is generic and not specific to the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine, because it was determined before clinical trials even began!

That’s why the AESI list includes diseases caused by other viruses – Herpes, MERS, Varicella; as well as “exposure to SARS-CoV-2” and other “communicable disease”.

The list also included manufacturing and lab test issues, like “Manufacturing laboratory analytical testing issue, Manufacturing materials issue, Manufacturing production issue“. Even product supply issues were included – “Product availability issue, Product distribution issue, Product supply issue“.

They are obviously not vaccine side effects, nor related in any way to the performance or safety of the vaccine.

Are vaccinated corpses emitting radio waves linked to Bill Gates?!

Leave a reply

Are vaccinated corpses emitting radio waves that were traced back to Bill Gates?! Take a look at the viral claim, and find out what the facts really are!

Claim : Vaccinated corpses are emitting radio waves linked to Bill Gates!

People are sharing an article (archive) by The People’s Voice (formerly NewsPunch), which claims that vaccinated corpses are emitting radio waves that were traced back to Bill Gates!

Here is an excerpt of the long and (intentionally?) confusing article. Feel free to skip to the next section for the facts!

Vaccinated Corpses Are Emitting Radio Frequencies That Trace Back to Bill Gates

Globalist control freak Bill Gates has been working behind the scenes to computerize the human body without our consent for years, and now chilling discoveries regarding the state of vaccinated corpses reveal that something very serious changed after 2021.

Are the vaccinated already walking, talking human cyborgs, fulfilling as yet unknown functions for the global elite – before they keel over and die at the flick of a switch?

According to a team of WEF-affiliated researchers at the University of Massachusetts and Delft University of Technology in the Netherlands, human beings could be used as part of an electromagnetic radiation (EMR) antenna system.

The researchers said they developed a low-cost way to “harvest” the radiofrequency (RF) radiation that gets “leaked” during visible light communication (VLC) — a technology they said is likely to be used in the “coming 6G networks.”

Evidence is now emerging that the elite have implemented their plan – without our consent – to turn the human race into a vast battery reserve to be harvested in secret.

Investigators are now reporting that vaccinated corpses who died after 2021 can be observed emitting radio frequency waves.

A patent granted to Bill Gates awarded the self-appointed world health czar the“exclusive right” to computerize human bodies and use them as local wireless networks.

The human body is a vibrating, throbbing, pulsing gateway of tubes and tunnels, filled with electrolytes and all capable of transmitting information, the lifeblood of the internet and the 21st century. Now it has emerged that Gates’ Microsoft was granted “exclusive rights” to this ability of the body to act as a computer network.

If this sounds too much like science fiction, then you are welcome to check this out for yourself. Microsoft was awarded US Patent 6,754,472, which is titled: Method and apparatus for transmitting power and data using the human body.

It really should be science fiction, if you stop and think about it. Did anybody consult you about whether you are willing to hand over the exclusive rights to your body to Bill Gates?

Truth : Vaccinated corpses are not emitting radio waves linked to Bill Gates!

This is yet another example of fake news created / promoted by The People’s Voice, and here are the reasons why…

Fact #1 : Vaccinated Corpses are not emitting radio waves

Let me start by simply pointing out that corpses, vaccinated or unvaccinated, do not emit radio waves.

Living human beings give off radiation, mostly thermal or infrared radiation. Corpses create heat as a byproduct of decomposition, and emit infrared radiation too, regardless of whether the person was vaccinated or unvaccinated.

However, thermal or infrared radiation are not the same thing as radio waves. Infrared radiation have frequencies between 300 GHz and 400 THz, while radio waves have a lower frequency range of 3 KHz to 1 GHz. So no – corpses do not emit radio waves.

Unsurprisingly, The People’s Voice provided no evidence to support its claim that “investigators are now reporting that vaccinated corpses who died after 2021 can be observed emitting radio frequency waves“.

Fact #2 : US Patent 6,754,472 has nothing to do with corpses / vaccines

The People’s Voice article appears to suggest that US Patent 6,754,472 is evidence that Bill Gates is somehow linked to (non-existent) radio waves from vaccinated corpses, because it was awarded to Microsoft.

The truth is – that patent refers to the use of electrodes attached to a human body to transmit power and data. It not only has nothing to do with corpses or vaccines, it doesn’t even involve radio waves!

Fact #3 : US Patent 6,754,472 was not granted to Bill Gates

The People’s Voice article appears to claim that US Patent 6,754,472 was granted to Bill Gates. That’s simply not true.

The patent was granted to Microsoft Technology Licensing LLC, and its inventors were listed as Lindsay Williams, William Vablais, and Steven N. Bathiche.

Bill Gates was not named in the patent at all. Neither was the patent awarded to Bill Gates.

Fact #4 : Microsoft applied for patent after Bill Gates stepped down

In addition, Microsoft only applied for US Patent 6,754,472 four months after Bill Gates stepped down as CEO of Microsoft in January 2000. So the patent application has nothing to do with Bill Gates.

Fact #5 : Satya Nadella is Microsoft CEO, not Bill Gates

Bill Gates not only stepped down as CEO more than 24 years ago, he also stepped down as Microsoft Chairman, when Satya Nadella was appointed as CEO in February 2014.

If Microsoft does indeed have any plan to “computerise human bodies and use them as local wireless networks”, that decision would have to be approved by its CEO and Chairman, Satya Nadella. Not its former founder, Bill Gates.

How is Bill Gates involved in this “story”? Nothing in the article even remotely suggests that Bill Gates is, in any way, involved in Microsoft affairs, or the non-existent plan to “computerise human bodies and use them as local wireless networks”.

Fact #6 : US Patent 6,754,472 has already expired!

On top of that, US Patent 6,754,472 has already expired. Microsoft applied for it on 27 April 2000, and the patent was created on 22 June 2004. Such patents are only granted 20 years of protection in the United States, and this one expired on 27 April 2020 – more than four years ago!

Fact #7 : Microsoft never developed anything using that patent

In any case, it does not appear that Microsoft ever developed any product using US Patent 6,754,472.

In fact, after the patent was granted in June 2004, Microsoft issued a statement, saying that it does not plan to use that patent, and only intended to licence it out for other companies to use:

Microsoft hasn’t recently held discussions about this patent, and it does not currently map to any particular Microsoft product that is either shipping or in development.

That said, one of the objectives of the intellectual property licensing policy Microsoft adopted in December 2003 is to provide other parties with access to the fruits of Microsoft’s nearly $7bn annual investment in R&D – especially to innovations that do not end up manifesting as Microsoft products.

Fact #8 : Bill Gates screenshot is fake

The cover image used by The People’s Voice article and video has a screenshot which purportedly shows the Bill Gates posting on X (formerly Twitter) that:

Your body is a resource that belongs to science.

That is most definitely a fake screenshot, because there is no such post on X by Bill Gates.

If Bill Gates actually posted such a shocking tweet, it would have been reported by the worldwide media. But of course, that didn’t happen, because Bill Gates never posted it!

This appears to be yet another fake / edited screenshot created or posted by The People’s Voice!

Fact #9 : The People’s Voice is known for fake news

The People’s Voice is the current name for NewsPunch, which possibly changed its name because its brand has been so thoroughly discredited after posting numerous shocking but fake stories.

Did Biden Cancel Event Because Of Medical Emergency?!

Leave a reply

Did US President Joe Biden cancel a Sunday event in Philadelphia after suffering a medical emergency on Air Force One?! Take a look at the viral claims, and find out what the facts really are!

Claim : Biden Cancelled Event Because Of Medical Emergency!

Some people are claiming that US President Joe Biden cancelled a Sunday event in Philadelphia after suffering a medical emergency on Air Force One!

Monica Crowley : 🚨 BREAKING: Biden is reportedly having a medical emergency aboard Air Force One

Laura Loomer : Joe Biden was scheduled to have a campaign event in Pennsylvania this Sunday.

After he had a medical emergency on Air Force One today, his events in Philadelphia were CANCELED.

Before the cancellation, Secret Service reportedly reserved a room inside the ER Ahead of Biden’s visit to Pennsylvania.

Why would Secret Service be reserving rooms in the ER ahead of Biden’s visit to Pennsylvania on Sunday (which has now been canceled).

It’s very obvious that Secret Service @SecretService was preparing for a #BidenMedicalEmergency like the one Joe Biden had on Air Force One today.

Laura Loomer : Why is the Biden campaign abruptly canceling events today all across the country?

Because as I reported, Joe Biden experienced a MEDICAL EMERGENCY on Air Force One today.

They know it’s true too. They are now racing to cover it up.

They even canceled Biden’s scheduled events for this Sunday in Philadelphia.

The American people deserve answers about today’s #BidenMedicalEmergency!

Show less

Truth : Biden Did Not Cancel Event Because Of Medical Emergency!

This is yet another example of FAKE NEWS circulating online, and here are the reasons why…

Fact #1 : President Biden Did Not Suffer Any Medical Emergency

Let me start by pointing out that President Joe Biden did not experience a medical emergency on Air Force One. In fact, there is actual video footage of Biden leaving Air Force One hours after those claims went viral!

As the video below shows (courtesy of ALX), President Biden was seen disembarking from Air Force One in Wilmington, Delaware at around 7:30 PM, after a campaign event in Madison.

Despite his poor debate performance against Donald Trump, and claims that he has trouble walking, Biden appears to confidently strut down the stairs by himself, even pausing momentarily to point at someone.

When Biden arrived on the tarmac, he saluted an officer and took time to speak with him. He then answered a shouted question from a journalist who asked if he planned to watch “the interview tonight”..

It is obvious from the video that President Joe Biden was fit and well when he left Air Force One.

https://www.techarp.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/President-Joe-Biden-arriving-in-Delaware-5-July-2024.mp4?_=2

Fact #2 : White House Called Rumours “100% False”

The White House also confirmed that the rumours of President Joe Biden suffering a medical emergency on Air Force One were “100% false“.

White House says rumors about a medical emergency on Air Force One are “100% false.” Biden was seen coming off the plane without issues and arrived at his Delaware home at 7:50 pm

Will all those who made those baseless claims that Joe Biden suffered a medical emergency and/or died on Air Force One apologise now?

Fact #3 : Biden Cancelled Event To Avoid Crossing Picket Line

The truth is – President Joe Biden made the decision to cancel his Philadelphia event on Sunday, the day before he flew on Air Force One on 6 July 2024.

Biden was originally scheduled to speech at the annual conference of the National Education Association (NEA) in Philadelphia on Sunday, 7 July.

However, the NEA’s staff union – the National Education Association Staff Organization, announced a strike on Friday, 5 July, setting up picket lines around the Pennsylvania Convention Center in downtown Philadelphia for a planned 3-day strike.

The very same day, Biden cancelled his speech. His campaign told the Associated Press that the president is a “fierce supporter of unions, and he won’t cross a picket line“.

The union’s 3-day picket of the event also effectively ended the weeklong convention, causing the cancellation of the last three days, including President Biden’s appearance.

Fact #4 : Biden Will Still Travel To Pennsylvania

Finally, the Biden campaign said on 5 July that he still plans to travel to Pennsylvania over the weekend, even though he already cancelled his speech at the NEA convention.

Fact #5 : This Is Just Fake News About Joe Biden

This is ultimately just another example of fake news created about Joe Biden, like these other examples:

As campaigning for the 2024 US Presidential elections heats up, you can expect more fake news about Joe Biden to appear.

Did German study find COVID vaccine caused excess deaths?!

Leave a reply

Did a new German study show that the COVID-19 vaccine has no beneficial effect, while massively increasing excess deaths?! Take a look at the viral claims, and find out what the facts really are!

Claim : German Study Finds COVID Vaccine Caused Excess Deaths!

People are sharing a study (archive) by Kuhbandner and Reitzner, claiming that it shows that the COVID-19 vaccine has no beneficial effect, while massively increasing excess deaths!

Here is an excerpt of the article. Feel free to skip to the next section for the facts!

The People’s Voice : German Study Finds Covid Vaccine Has ‘No Beneficial Effects’ While Massively Increasing Excess Deaths

A bombshell new study from Germany has revealed that the Covid-19 mRNA vaccines have produced “no beneficial effects” at the community level, while finding that “the more vaccinations were administered in a federal state, the greater the increase in excess mortality.”

David Cartland : German Study Demonstrates that “COVID” Deaths were Exaggerated, Interventions were Ineffective and the “Vaccine” Caused More Harm than Benefit, Including Death.

Kim Dotcom : A study in Germany shows that the Covid-19 vaccines had “no beneficial effects” at the community level and “the more vaccinations were administered in a federal state, the greater the increase in excess mortality.”

Craig Kelly : 🔥🔥Breaking 🔥🔥

Just published bombshell study from Germany finds “vaccinations had no beneficial effects” and worse, “the more vaccinations were administered in a federal state, the greater the increase in excess mortality”.

The German data provides an important case study because there was a substantial variation in excess mortality across the different German states.

And if you were a fanatic that forced people to inject this stuff by imposing workplace mandates, I suggest you keep a toothbrush and clean set of underwear on standby at all times – because the walls are closing, it’s just a matter of time until you end up in jail.

Luther ‘Ćyrus’ : A bombshell new study from Germany has revealed that the Covid-19 mRNA vaccines have produced “no beneficial effects” at the community level, while finding that “the more vaccinations were administered in a federal state, the greater the increase in excess mortality.”

Show less

Truth : German Study Did Not Show COVID Vaccine Caused Excess Deaths!

Let’s take a look at the controversial study of excess deaths in Germany, and find out why it does not show that the COVID vaccine was the cause!

Fact #1 : It’s A Preprint That Has Not Been Peer-Reviewed

Let me start by pointing out that paper by Kuhbandner and Reitzner is a preprint that has not even been peer-reviewed. While a lack of peer review does not necessarily mean the data or study is irrelevant, it does mean that we should take it with a pinch of salt, because it hasn’t even undergone basic review by another member of the scientific community.

Even peer review is just the first step in the scientific review process, as the people reviewing such papers are not infallible. The lack of a rigorous peer review is arguably why even peer-reviewed and published papers get retracted, like what happened in February and June this year at Cureus.

Fact #2 : 93% Of Excess Deaths Were Elderly People

It is true that there was a noticeable increase in excess deaths in Germany, during the COVID-19 pandemic years of 2020 to 2022. The ifo Institute issued a press release about this in January 2023.

The study attempts to show correlation between COVID-19 vaccination and excess deaths, by showing that excess deaths increased in 2022, even though reported COVID-19 deaths dropped in 2022.

What it did not show you was a breakdown in age. As the ifo Institute table below shows, 93% of the excess deaths were seen in the elderly – people who were 60 years and older. Those who were 80 years and older, in particular, suffered greatly.

In the 80+ age group alone, 116,000 more people died than expected; in the 60–79 age group, the figure was 51,000. In the large age group of 30–59, on the other hand, there were only 12,000 additional deaths, and only about 900 among those aged 0–29.

Obviously, there are many reasons why the elderly are dying at a higher than expected rate during the COVID-19 pandemic. Chief amongst them – COVID-19 infections, and their long-lasting effects in some cases.

Fact #3 : 30-59 Year-Old Excess Deaths Decreased In 2022

Interestingly, the data actually showed a 17.3% decrease in excess deaths for people who were 30 to 59 years in age, from 2021 to 2022. Does this mean the COVID-19 vaccines are protecting 30 to 59 year-old adults from death???

Of course, not. Just as it is silly to jump to such a conclusion based on nothing more than two numbers, it is similarly silly for anyone to conclude that the 2020-2023 increase in excess deaths in Germany were caused by the COVID-19 vaccine.

These excess deaths could have been caused by COVID-19 infections in 2020 and 2021, and other causes in 2022. In fact, the ifo Institute suggested that the summer heat waves and flu waves might account for these excess deaths.

The exact reasons for this are still unclear. The heat waves in the summer and the flu waves at the end of the year probably also played a role.

Fact #4 : Correlation Does Not Imply Causation

What appears clear is that the data does not show any strong correlation between excess deaths and COVID-19 vaccinations. After all – the surge in excess deaths began in 2020 – at least a year before widespread COVID-19 vaccinations occurred in Germany.

But even if there appears to be some kind of correlation between widespread COVID-19 vaccination by end of 2022 and higher excess deaths the same year, that does not mean the vaccines caused those deaths.

For example, if you get pregnant after getting the COVID-19 vaccine, does it mean that the vaccine made you pregnant? Of course, not. It’s the same silly argument being made with the excess deaths in Germany.

How can anyone establish any “causal relationship” between those excess deaths and the vaccine, when all this study has done is just analyse excess health statistics without knowing anything about the person’s vaccination status, prior health condition, or even cause of death???

Fact #5 : COVID-19 Vaccines Were Proven Safe + Effective

After over 3 years of post-marketing monitoring, and extensive safety and efficacy tests involving tens of thousands of volunteers, it is indisputable that the COVID-19 vaccines have proven to be largely safe and effective in preventing death and hospitalisation from SARS-CoV-2 virus infections.

In fact, widespread vaccination against COVID-19 is arguably the only reason why the world is able reopen completely, without COVID-19 patients overwhelming hospitals and ICUs as they did during the pandemic.

The reason why doctors and health authorities continue to STRONGLY advocate vaccination is because the vaccines have been PROVEN to protect the vast majority of people from getting COVID-19 in the first place. And even if you do get infected after vaccination, the vaccine will protect you against hospitalisation and death from COVID-19.

Cureus retracts study linking COVID vaccines to cancer!

Leave a reply

Find out why the journal Cureus just retracted a controversial Japanese study which claimed to link COVID-19 vaccines to cancer!

Cureus Retracts Study Linking COVID Vaccines To Cancer!

Cureus just retracted a controversial Japanese study by Gibo M, Kojima S, Fujisawa A, et al. which claimed to link COVID-19 vaccines to cancer, a decision which drew outrage amongst the anti-vaccine community.

Some publications even suggested that Cureus made that decision after it was fact-checked by Facebook or Reuters.

Children’s Health Defense / Vigilant News :

Journal Retracts Peer-Reviewed Study Linking COVID Vaccines to Cancer After Reuters ‘Fact Checks’ It

Mortality for some cancers increased by as much as 9.7%, according to a study by Japanese researchers who analyzed government statistics to compare age-adjusted cancer mortality rates during the COVID-19 pandemic (2020-2022) with pre-pandemic rates.

The journal Cureus last week retracted a Japanese study that found statistically significant increases in cancer mortality following COVID-19 vaccination, especially after the third COVID-19 shot.

Slay News : Top Journal Removes Peer-Reviewed Study Linking Covid Shots to Cancer after Facebook ‘Fact Check’

An explosive peer-reviewed study was recently published in a prestigious medical journal which identifies a direct link between Covid mRNA shots and cancer.

As Slay News reported, the study, published in the Cureus journal, found that the risk of dying from cancer dramatically increased each time a patient received an mRNA injection.

Why Cureus Retracted Study Linking COVID Vaccines To Cancer!

Here is a quick primer on why Cureus retracted the controversial Japanese study linking COVID-19 vaccines to cancer, and what it means…

Fact #1 : Cureus Relies On Post-Publication Peer Review

Let me start by quickly pointing out that Cureus relies on post-publication peer review.

Even though this paper was marked as “peer-reviewed”, the peer review process at Cureus is “unusually fast“, and Cureus relies on “post-publication peer review“, as its Editor in Chief John R. Adler explained to Retraction Watch in 2015:

Yes, Cureus has an unusually fast review process, which is an important part of the journal’s philosophy. We believe that post publication peer review, a focus of our journal through commenting and our unique SIQ process, is potentially a more powerful way to discern truth.

In other words – the pre-publication peer review appears to be superficial, and Cureus relies on the scientific community to peer-review the papers after publication.

Therefore, “peer-reviewed” studies published in Cureus can and do get retracted after further review, like the infamous article “COVID-19 mRNA Vaccines: Lessons Learned from the Registrational Trials and Global Vaccination Campaign” by Mead et. al.

Even if the paper was properly peer-reviewed by a prestigious journal, that would only be the first step in the scientific review process, which would include replication and verification, as well as criticism by other members of the scientific community.

Fact #2 : Cureus Says Study’s Conclusions Are Invalid

After publishing the study on April 8, the Editors-in-Chief at Cureus initiated a comprehensive post-publication editorial review on June 12, after the scientific credibility of the article was severely criticised.

The Editors-in-Chief have been made aware of several concerns regarding the scientific credibility of this article. A comprehensive post-publication editorial review is being conducted to determine if any action is required.

Finally, on June 26, the Editors-in-Chief at Cureus determined that the data in the study did not show any correlation between mortality rates and vaccination status, which invalidated its conclusion. They then decided to retract the study:

The Editors-in-Chief have retracted this article. Upon post-publication review, it has been determined that the correlation between mortality rates and vaccination status cannot be proven with the data presented in this article. As this invalidates the conclusions of the article, the decision has been made to retract.

The authors disagree with this retraction.

This may seem like closing the stable doors after the horses have bolted, but at least the controversial article has finally been retracted. In hindsight, perhaps such studies should undergo a more stringent peer-review process before being allowed to be labelled as “peer-reviewed”, or published…

Fact #3 : Japanese Study Had So Many Problems

The Gibo et. al. study only performed statistical analysis of publicly-available data to look at whether there has been any increase in cancer deaths. While such studies may suggest a potential issue with the COVID-19 vaccines, they cannot prove any correlation, much less causation.

Back in April, I wrote a comprehensive look at that study, but here are the key points of why that Japanese study does not show a rise in cancer deaths in Japan and/or that they were caused by mRNA vaccines:

it did not even establish the COVID-19 vaccination status of people in the data!
Japan used a mix of COVID-19 vaccines, not just mRNA vaccines
the study lacked a control group of unvaccinated people, which invalidated its conclusion
cancer deaths have been rising for decades, as the chart below shows
Japan has an aging population, which could easily explain the increase in cancer rates and deaths
cancer has been the leading cause of death in Japan since 1981

The study did not even establish the vaccination status of people included in the data, never mind how many actually received the third dose! The authors actually admitted that at the end of their long paper:

Fact #4 : Turbo Cancer Does Not Exist

Finally, there is no such thing as “turbo cancer”, and after billions of doses have been administered worldwide in the past 3 years – there is still no evidence that any COVID-19 vaccine can cause cancer, or make cancer go “turbo”.
