The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), and the entire Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) have demonstrated a shocking dereliction of duty in their handling of the COVID-19 vaccination program. These agencies set a clear standard: under the Emergency Use Authorization (EUA), COVID-19 vaccines had to demonstrate at least 50% efficacy in preventing symptomatic infection to justify their use before full licensure.

That benchmark was not met. Not only did the vaccines fail to prevent infection, but their effectiveness against hospitalization and death declined rapidly. Instead of pausing, reassessing, or at the very least acknowledging their failure, these agencies doubled down, pushing new boosters with no new randomized controlled trials (RCTs), censoring dissenting scientists, and manipulating public perception to sustain a broken public health narrative.

A bombshell study published in Annals of Internal Medicine “Effectiveness of the 2023-to-2024 XBB.1.5 COVID-19 Vaccines Over Long-Term Follow-up: A Target Trial Emulation” (February 2025) has finally laid bare the truth. Over a six-month period, the real-world data from the Veterans Health Administration showed that the XBB.1.5 monovalent COVID-19 vaccine had a negative effectiveness rate of -3.26% against infection—meaning vaccinated individuals were more likely to get COVID-19 than their unvaccinated counterparts. Effectiveness against hospitalization was a mere 16.64%, and against death, only 26.61%. Worse yet, these numbers collapsed over time—by day 176 post-vaccination, protection against hospitalization and death had declined so much that any claimed benefit was effectively negligible.

The FDA’s own standard required vaccines to demonstrate at least 50% effectiveness, yet these numbers didn’t prompt any course correction. Instead, the agencies covered it up and moved the goalposts—first from stopping infection to preventing hospitalization, then from preventing hospitalization to merely reducing death, and finally to the vague and unmeasurable claim of “mitigating severe outcomes.”

This is not public health. This is scientific and medical malpractice.

**Comment**

Since ‘public health’ isn’t doing the science, there’s now a private $3.5 Million foundation grant for honest scientists to publish papers documenting the existence of ‘vaccines’ causing autism, which has already been confirmed by a top government expert.

If you can’t go with it, you must go around it.

Similarly to Lymeland, if you want any decent research you have to fund it and do it yourself.
