Whistleblower Report – Lyme, the “Itsy Bitsy Tick”: Another Perfect Bioweapon

By Major Mike Gary and Elizabeth Lee Vliet MD

3/5/24

COVID is far from the first time our government agencies have been acting as mad scientists in taxpayer-funded bioresearch laboratories experimenting with dangerous pathogens.  In the 1970’s Army researchers were experimenting with pathogens at the Plum Island Animal Disease Center in Long Island Sound, when inadequate filtration maintenance resulted in an outbreak of foot-and-mouth disease (FMD) that led to the emergency killing and burning of more than 72,000 pounds of live cows, sheep, goats and other animals in just 48 hours. There was a massive cover-up at the time of the destruction of these animals and the disease outbreak.

Plum Island is the only location in the United States where research on the foot and mouth virus was legally permitted. While the virus is not fatal to humans, people who have come in contact with it can readily transmit it to animals, who become seriously debilitated and suffer lameness, fever, and painful vesicular lesions on the tongue, feet, snout, and teats. Although FMD does not result in high mortality in adult animals, the disease has debilitating effects, including weight loss, decrease in milk production, and loss of muscle strength and lameness, resulting in a loss in productivity for a considerable time. Mortality, however, can be high in young animals, where the virus can affect the heart. In addition, cattle, sheep, and goats can become carriers, and cattle can harbor virus for up to 2 to 3 years. Contaminated food, water and soil can also spread the disease.  (See link for article)

_______________

SUMMARY:

  • FMD affects cloven-hoofed livestock and more than 70 species of wild animals including deer.
  • The disease was shown to be caused by a filterable agent in 1897 which ushered in the era of virology.
  • Outbreaks have occurred worldwide.
  • Lyme disease appeared in the same decade and same region as FMD.
  • FMD easily infects animals that in turn can infect ticks.
  • Lyme disease was initially thought to be caused by a virus, then a rickettsial helvetica called ‘Swiss Agent,’ then ultimately Borrelia burgdorferi or Lyme disease.
  • The book Lab 257 expresses a well-researched account of the mad science happening at the Plum Island Animal Disease Center. It also highlights whistle blower Merlon Wiggins’ documentation of dangerous lab practices. Merlon was persecuted and eventually removed from the lab as the Chief Engineer.
  • While the infamous lab claims it never performed research on Lyme, it also denied for decades that it performed biological warfare experiments until Newsday unearthed previously classified documents proving such experiments took place.  New York Times confirmed it as well.
  • Lyme is only one of four infectious disease outbreaks that have occurred by Plum Island.  Others were:
    • Dutch duck plague virus in the 1960’s
    • Lyme disease in 1975
    • FM outbreak in 1978 & two more outbreaks in 2004 – both at the Plum Island Animal Disease Center
    • West Nile virus in 1999
    • and the mysterious 1999 disease that killed most of the lobsters in Long Island Sound

The ‘New Norm:’ Authors Rewrite Positive Ivermectin Findings To Make Them Appear Negative

People Who Received Ivermectin Were Better Off, Study Finds

Ivermectin recipients recovered faster than others.
3/7/2024

People who tested positive for COVID-19 and took ivermectin as a treatment recovered faster than a comparison group, a new study found.

The time to self-reported recovery was a median of two days faster among the ivermectin recipients, according to the large UK study.

The quicker recovery period was statistically significant.

People who received ivermectin were also less likely to be hospitalized or die, with 1.6 percent of ivermectin recipients being hospitalized or dying versus 4 percent of the comparison group, which received typical care, which in the UK is largely focused on managing symptoms.

Ivermectin recipients also enjoyed a reduction of severe symptoms and sustained recovery, according to the study.

The paper was published by the Journal of Infection on Feb. 29.  (See link for article)
_________________
SUMMARY:
  • Only in the topsy-turvy world of COVID do study authors rewrite positive findings into negative ones
  • The PRINCIPLE trial came up with an unneeded specified hazard ratio to make the findings appear insignificant. In the real world, if a HR is >1.0, and is statistically significant, it is a robust finding.
  • Further, the findings should be interpreted in the context of
    • recipients only receive ONE dose per day across three days
    • recipients were directed to refrain from eating food 2 hours before and after administration when previous research found that taking it with food increases plasma concentration
    • recipients received ivermectin a median of 5 days after symptom onset, a time some consider to be too late since the drug works best within 24 hours according to a meta-regression
  • There have been additional studies that found ivermectin works against COVID-19.
  • Dr. David Boulware who helped run the trial argued that faster recovery with ivermectin was similar to the open-trial findings of molnupiravir; however, according to James Lyons-Weiler, the FDA dropped the ball completely on this supposed ‘game changer’ which gave people higher live SARS-CoV-2 viral titers and more viral evolution two weeks after start of treatment, but was still FDA approved.
  • Go here for a quick review of costs between FDA approved and FDA unapproved COVID treatments.  This says it all.

PRINCIPLE Trial Fails to Refute Evidence of Ivermectin’s Efficacy in Covid-19

Results from the Oxford-managed PRINCIPLE trial of ivermectin in out-patient Covid-19 were published in the Journal of Infection on 29 February 2024, over a year and half after the trial’s closure in July 2022, and over 2 years since the originally planned termination. The unexpected pause in January 2022 (said to be due to supply problems, denied by the supplier) remains unexplained. PRINCIPLE is funded by the NIHR, i.e. by the British taxpayer.

The trial design was criticised by FLCCC and BiRD International on 1 July 2021, because of enrollment up to 14 days of symptoms. The comprehensive summary of clinical evidence at c19ivm.org thus categorises this as a “Late Treatment” RCT. The protocol treatment, with weak dosing, short duration, fasting administration minimising serum concentrations, confined to a monotherapy with disregard of ubiquitous adjuncts, and of the concurrent corticosteroids indicated at later disease stages, did not correspond to any treatments adopted by clinicians using ivermectin with success. Overall the majority of patients were low-risk, after enrollment criteria were changed in July 2021 to accommodate all adults.

https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack post media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fc5127434 1c08 4610 8bf1

In spite of the low-risk population, under-dosing, and late treatment, statistically significant improvements in times to recovery on various metrics are found, Fig. S6(b) opposite, though not graphed in the main paper. The authors’ summary rejects these as not clinically significant, based on an arbitrary, pre-defined, metric:  –  “Ivermectin for COVID-19 is unlikely to provide clinically meaningful improvement in recovery, hospital admissions, or longer-term outcomes. Further trials of ivermectin for SARSCov-2 infection in vaccinated community populations appear unwarranted.” This does not follow from the evidence. A rational response to statistically significant improvement in recovery time, demonstrating a positive quantified effect, would be to seek to optimise the protocol. Also the alleviation of Post-Acute Sequelae of SARS-Cov-2 (PASC) i.e. “Long Covid”, as detailed here from data in the Supplementaries, is clear, and at variance with the negative conclusion on “longer term outcomes”.

BiRD International and the World Council for Health agree however that further trials of ivermectin alone are unwarranted, the weight of evidence summarised at covid19.org being so overwhelming that the remaining issues concern dosage, adjuncts, and mechanism, rather than further empirical evidence of clinical effect. The paper’s opening statement “The evidence … is contested” does not survive scrutiny of all available evidence, even after this report. Multiple critiques of design and implementation remain unanswered, data sharing is only offered subject to contracts, and an undeclared conflict of interest is Prof Chris Butler’s parallel PANORAMIC trial of molnupiravir, a proprietary drug.

We find the results unsurprising in view of the poor trial design; they do little or nothing to refute the accumulated worldwide evidence on the efficacy of ivermectin in Covid-19.

**Comment**

And there you have it.  Yet another manipulated study for a pre-determined outcome by an author with a vested interest in a treatment that competes with ivermectin.  Case closed.

Things They Didn’t Say At the ACIP Recap & CDC Releases 148 Pages on Myocarditis After COVID Shots – All Redacted

https://healthfreedominstitute.com/acip-feb-recap/

CDC’S ACIP RECAP: THINGS THEY DIDN’T SAY

March 6, 2024 – Last week the CDC’s Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) gathered for their regularly scheduled February meeting. The ACIP traditionally meets three times per year in February, June, and October. COVID upended that, with 10 meetings in 2020, 17 in 2021, 11 in 2022, and seven in 2023.1 The ACIP started this year with a notable eight vacancies on the panel, so for this meeting, members of the federal government stepped in as voting members. Topics included the expected: shots for COVID, flupolio, pneumococcal, and meningococcal, alongside discussions revisiting guidance for diphtheriatetanus, and pertussis, and newly-licensed, fast-tracked chikungunya vaccines.

Four votes were taken; each passed easily. The first added another recommended 2023-2024 version of the COVID shot for those over 65. The committee spent over 30 minutes discussing whether the recommendation language would be more effective at getting shots in arms if the CDC says people “should” get the shot versus “may” get the shot. The difference is, if the CDC says people “may” get a shot, it sounds more like permission and would create discussion with providers about individual patient needs, while “should” more clearly supports their end goal of directing one-size-fits-all medicine. In the end, push came to shove and the crew decided “shared decision making” was too weak and confusing and went with “should.” Is it curious that the ACIP spent a hefty chunk of time debating the subtleties of persuasive language? Were there other topics that that went ignored?

The committee also voted to update Vaccines for Children (VFC) guidelines for combination vaccines containing tetanus, diphtheria, and pertussis. This is significant because VFC earmarks taxpayer money to supply free vaccines to poor children only if the vaccine is specifically added to the list. But these combo shots have been given to children since the 1970s. What changed? The stated reason for doing this was because an unnamed maker of the only DT vaccine (who happens to be Sanofi), discontinued manufacturing.2 The DT vaccine was recommended for children who had a reaction to the pertussis component of DTaP, or people who showed up in the ER for potential tetanus exposure. DT will be replaced with Td, also manufactured by Sanofi, and containing less diphtheria toxoid than DT. (For a review of the alphabet soup of this combo shot, check out our article “Shining a light on Pertussis, the vaccine that opened the courthouse doors.”)

Strangely, the group voted to add Td, manufactured by MassBiologics, to the VFC resolution to authorize taxpayer dollars for free vaccines despite acknowledging the company’s very recent decision to discontinue manufacture of the product. There was no discussion about why either product was being discontinued, but Sanofi cited “minimal demand” in a letter to customers,3 and the maker of TdVax revealed the FDA was investigating some of its lots in 2022.4 One member of the committee, Dr. Chan, did not vote because he disclosed an active collaboration with MassBiologics. What does this curious vote mean for Americans? Moving forward, children who have a reaction to DTaP may be able to access Td (with lower doses of diphtheria toxin than DT) as long as there are no supply shortages, however, people going to the ER with a wound will most likely not be able to access a shot that does not include pertussis. Our article “Shining a light on tetanus: The case of the rusty nail and the anti-fertility vaccine” explains why doctors push the Dtap shot when they see open wounds.

Two further votes sailed through for the first-ever chikungunya vaccine to be recommended for lab workers and anyone traveling to a country where there is an increased risk of the mosquito-borne illness. Chikungunya commonly causes fever and joint pain and, according to the WHO, most people fully recover and have lifelong immunity.5 Serious or long-term illness occurs typically only in the very old or very young and those with complications. Unfortunately, the FDA’s press release announcing licensure in November 2023 makes one wonder if the cure is worse than the illness itself for the healthy traveler or lab worker:

The FDA’s announcement further explains that the vaccine was granted “Accelerated Approval,” based on whether a product may be effective. There’s no mention of safety requirements, and the press release admits that adverse reactions did not happen in the placebo group, and that it is unknown whether the vaccine will cause adverse effects in newborns. The FDA is relying on the manufacturer to do postmarket surveillance to gather safety data. In other words, we’ll figure out how safe this is after we sell it and see what happens.

There’s no information on the safety or efficacy for mom or baby, because it’s general practice not to test vaccines on pregnant women. There’s also no “human data” on whether vaccine virus or antibodies are present in breast milk after vaccination. Two pregnant women who were inadvertently included in clinical trials both had miscarriages after the vaccine was administered (none in the placebo group did), and the miscarriages were not attributed to the shot.

Regardless, the ACIP did not exclude or add precautions to their recommendation for pregnant women.

AS YOU CAN SEE, THERE WAS A LOT MISSING FROM THE MEETING DISCUSSION. HERE ARE JUST A FEW OF THE THINGS LEFT UNSAID DURING THE COVID DISCUSSIONS:

  • Data about hospitalization for COVID in children wasn’t given, though there was a full presentation on adult hospitalization.
  • Public attitudes about the shot, and top concerns were presented in the context of addressing why people haven’t gotten all the shots, and notably absent was any discussion of people’s concerns, which included serious or mild side effects, and whether the shot worked at all.
  • COVID vaccine safety presentations still did not address the safety signal from VAERS data and deaths.
  • Efficacy data presented did not include inquiry into “negative efficacy,” meaning questions of whether those vaccinated are more likely to get COVID.
  • Why efficacy data was discontinued after a very short 119 days.
  • Economic analysis also didn’t include the possibility of breakthrough infections in estimating years of life and money saved.
  • “Available data” addressing the acknowledged signal for stroke associated with the shot was “inconsistent,” with the claim “most” results didn’t show an association…which leaves one wondering if there are studies that have shown those results which were not disclosed or discussed.
  • There was no discussion about why they recommend a 2nd 2023-2024 shot for those over 65 at four months rather than the typical 2 month wait between shots.
  • There were references to differences in opinion among Working Group members regarding the 2nd shot recommendation, but full disclosure of those differences was absent.
  • There were comments about returning to strain recommendations at least yearly, but no discussion on why we need new strains every year.

HERE ARE SOME THINGS THEY DID SAY ABOUT THE COVID SHOTS:

  • “I totally acknowledge that lots of people don’t want it…anything we can do to lower the barrier of getting a vaccine in someone’s arm is just wonderful.
  • “We know efficacy wanes.”
  • 98% of people have natural or vaccine immunity.
  • [There are] “lots of questions, probably unanswerable.”

**Comment**

What an absolute dog and pony show.  Do not trust these people.  At all.

The other little factoid not mentioned at the ACIP meeting was that they proclaimed all COVID gene therapy (40 in total) injections were 100% effective, but ZERO actually work.

In 2024, there is still no cure or proven “vaccine” for any respiratory disease.

https://lionessofjudah.substack.com/p/follow-the-science-blindly?

“Follow the Science”… Blindly

The CDC “released” a 148 page study on myocarditis after COVID-19 “vaccination” and every single page is completely redacted

Does this remind you of the blank information inserts accompanying the Covid injections?

Here is a link to the released document – CDC MOVING FOIA – DocumentCloud

Though this is totally redacted, it shows us 3 things:

1. The CDC has TOTAL contempt for members of the public

2. Its blank BECAUSE the findings show that the vaccine causes myocarditis. If it didn’t cause myocarditis then they would not be hiding the results.

3. When they say “follow the science” they mean follow it blindly.

**UPDATE**

There is now an obvious concern about receiving a blood transfusion using COVID ‘vaccinated’ blood.  This article based on a Twitter post relays an important patient case of a COVID ‘vaxxed’ blood transfusion causing blood clotting and pericarditis.  Another unfortunate example of this is the death of a baby who died of blood clots after the hospital gave him a blood transfusion using “vaccinated” blood against the parents’ wishes. The hospital somehow managed to “lose” the specially donated unvaccinated blood by a family friend, so have an advocate with you if you are in the hospital.

Similarly to the redacted pages and blind refusal to admit the injections are even causing widespread blood and heart problems, researchers are carefully toeing the narrative by stooping so low as to compare the potential for life-altering health issues to a historical example of denying blood based upon race (the old race card).  There is quite a difference between the two when you consider the potential life-altering damage or even death from COVID ‘vaxxed’ blood. It’s simply easier to call it all ‘misinformation.’

You be the judge.

Somatic Tracking for Pain

**DISCLAIMER**

Sorry for the monologue, but it’s important.

As anyone in Lymeland knows, ‘what works for one, doesn’t work for another.’  Please keep this in mind as you read the following information that I hope will help someone.  Further, I am in complete disagreement with any statements that Lyme/MSIDS can not be a persistent/chronic infection(s).  The doctor in the documentary, Dr. Howard Schubiner, admits there is controversy in the medical community over chronic Lyme/MSIDS, and that he has had the experience of seeing patients ‘overtreated’ with antibiotics for weeks, months, and years. While he states he is very happy for those who are doing well with long-term of treatment, he states patients should rethink their diagnosis if they are on a merry-go-round of costly and invasive treatments that aren’t working. To this doctor I would state: while you have had the unfortunate experience of helping ‘overtreated’ patients, there are thousands upon thousands in the real world who are dying from undertreatment.  Tread lightly.

While rethinking a diagnosis appears to be logically sane thinking, it’s imperative to understand treating Lyme/MSIDS is fraught with confusion, mystery, set backs, and pain. To my knowledge the only other diseases with Jarisch-Herxheimer reactions besides Lyme disease are syphilis, leptospirosis, and relapsing fever – which means unless you have had one of those diseases before, you have never experienced how confusing and relentless herxes are. They truly make you think you are losing your mind.

It is not uncommon at all for patients to hit plateaus in Lyme/MSIDS treatment. They might go through a period where they feel great only to have the dreaded symptoms, or even worse ones appear over night.  This is why Lyme literate doctors describe treating this similarly to peeling back the layers of an onion.  When one infection gets under control another one suddenly becomes visible.

This coinfection involvement never gets any air-play, but is crucial in understanding this beast. These infections require different medications entirely, but mainstream medicine doesn’t even consider them, so when a short course of doxy doesn’t make a person well, they simply fold up shop and declare, “you don’t have Lyme,” which could very well be true; however, they could also have Babesia, Bartonella, Relapsing Fever, or a whole host of other infections that look and act just like Lyme disease. Please go here to learn of the many issues surrounding why patients don’t get well.

So, once again, none of this is simple.  Keep an open mind.

One final note: I ended up using many aspects of this technique out of desperation, completely on my own.  I had no idea it was a ‘thing,’ but as they say, ‘necessity is the mother of invention.’

Somatic Tracking for Pain: Unveiling Effective Techniques

somatic tracking pain

Living with pain can be a daunting and overwhelming experience. It can drastically affect our quality of life and prevent us from fully enjoying the activities we love. However, there is a technique called somatic tracking that can help us better understand and manage our pain. In this article, we will delve into the intricacies of somatic tracking, explore its benefits, and discuss how it can be implemented in our daily lives.

Understanding Somatic Tracking

Somatic tracking is a mindfulness-based technique that involves bringing awareness to our bodily sensations and learning to interpret them. By paying attention to our physical experiences, we can develop a deeper understanding of the underlying causes of our pain and explore ways to alleviate it.

When we talk about somatic tracking, we are referring to the practice of tuning in to the sensations and signals that our bodies send us. It’s like becoming fluent in the language of our own physical experiences. Just as we can learn to interpret words and phrases in a foreign language, we can learn to interpret the messages that our bodies are constantly sending us.

Imagine this: you wake up one morning with a dull ache in your lower back. Instead of dismissing it as just another discomfort, you decide to practice somatic tracking. You close your eyes, take a deep breath, and bring your attention to the area of your back that is bothering you. As you focus on the sensation, you start to notice subtle nuances – a tightness, a twinge, a warmth. These sensations become the building blocks of your understanding.  (See link for article)

This Might Hurt

A Film about a radical treatment for chronic pain

THE PROBLEM: CHRONIC PAIN

One in seven people around the world suffer from chronic pain, and nearly 80% of us will experience it at some point in our lives. The symptoms show up as back pain, neck pain, fibromyalgia, migraines, irritable bowel syndrome, anxiety, depression, fatigue, and a dozen others. The standard treatments are often ineffective, and one of the main remedies, opioids, has made the problem worse. What’s going on here?

THE FILM

This Might Hurt is a documentary that offers solutions to reduce and unlearn chronic pain. The film follows three chronic pain patients who have spent years searching for answers. Desperate for relief, they enter a new medical program — run by Dr. Howard Schubiner — that focuses on uncovering hidden causes of pain, and retraining their brains to switch the pain off.

This new paradigm for diagnosis and treatment was found to be effective in several randomized trials, and was listed as a “best practice” by the HHS’s task force to combat the opioid epidemic. This Might Hurt provides an intimate exploration and suggests a path to healing for millions.

Here are just some of the conditions that can be caused by “primary pain,” also know as brain-generated pain:
