BTW: staffing shortages are are problem here in the US as well.  While many want to blame “unsafe work conditions,” mainstream media is completely ignoring the elephant in the room: “vaccine” mandates causing workers to be fired or to walk off the job in protestHaving too few workers is then causing unsafe conditions.  Further, many professionals are leaving due to the top down federally coerced COVID protocols, making patients virtual prisoners in hospitals, tying doctor’s hands regarding treatment options, and brutal treatments that are killing people.

Besides being ethically wrong, “vax” mandates are unwarranted and ineffective: Here’s why:

CMS implemented “value-based” payment programs that track data such as how many workers at a healthcare facility receive a COVID-19 vaccine. Now we see why many hospitals implemented COVID-19 vaccine mandates. They are paid more.

Healthcare workers have been sold-out by their employers who care more about money than health or freedom of choice.

James Roguski has been making the media rounds in the Alternative Media this week warning about a closed-door meeting happening at the World Health Organization (WHO) this week with The International Health Regulations Review Committee (IHRRC) from January 9-13, 2023.

While the new WHO proposed “Pandemic Treaty” has grabbed the headlines in recent weeks, James Roguski believes that the meeting this week with IHRRC is much more important, because they are proposing amendments to an agreement that all 194 member nations of the World Health Assembly have already signed and ratified, including the United States, back in 2005, regarding International Health Regulations.

The current agreement is “non-binding”, but according to Roguski they want to change the agreement to remove the wording that states these “health regulations” are not just non-binding recommendations, but requirements to be implemented in all future “pandemics.”

The Review Committee is supposed to submit their proposals to the WHO by January 15, 2023, and then the entire 194 members of the WHO could vote on these amendments as soon as this May, in 2023. The amendments could be ratified by a simple majority vote among the 194 member nations.

Go to top link for one of the interviews he gave yesterday about these proposed amendments, and you can learn more from James Roguski’s Substack account here.

And go here to read an interview with Francis Boyle, J.D., Ph.D., bioweapons expert and professor of international law at the University of Illinois, on how the WHO’s latest proposals may violate international law.  He calls for the U.S. federal and state governments to exit the WHO immediately.

Go here to learn more about WHO Director Tedros Gherbreyesus, who according to Roguski would become the World Ruler for all health measures in future pandemics.

According to an article written last year, the U.S. is on course to become a ‘digital dictatorship’ under a proposed biomedical research agency. This agency would merge national security with public health, a perfect formula for a dangerous agenda that would destroy medical freedom as we know it.

This agency would “use both physical and mental health ‘warning signs’ to prevent outbreaks of disease or violence before they occur. Such a system is a recipe for a technocratic ‘pre-crime’ organization with the potential to criminalize both mental and physical illness as well as ‘wrongthink.’”

This article proves the political interference at HHS as well as the fact governments are working in lockstep to bring in digital I.D.s & a social credit system.

The CDC already rules both research and the medical profession with an iron fist and medical freedom is increasingly under fire.
All of this sounds like a perfect prelude to global “vaccine” passports.

Study in Nature Medicine Being Used to Promote COVID Shot Effectiveness Gets An F- as It Removes >99% of the Data

https://popularrationalism.substack.com/p/translational-failure-nature-medicine?

Translational Failure: Nature Medicine Inmate Study Removes >99% of the Data, Is Used to Conclude that COVID-19 Vaccines Reduce Transmission. PR Score: F-

Study restricts consideration of close contact inmates (who shared cells). As if non-close contacts do not transmit, and as if prison cell settings are relevant for the world outside the Big House.

This is not an academic note. Your representatives, family members, and school boards must know that science on efficacy has been warped just as much as science on safety.

A hugely important part of epidemiologic studies is whether the study sample – the group(s) of people being studied – is representative of the general population about which generalizable knowledge is sought.

The problem for the WHO, CDC, FDA, NIAID, Fauci, and people who message and think like these organizations is this: you cannot debunk reality.

This issue is so important that when I read an observational study, such as this one in Nature Medicine, entitled “Infectiousness of SARS-CoV-2 breakthrough infections and reinfections during the Omicron wave”, the first part of the study I read the section that describes the inclusion/exclusion criteria and compares the outcome of the exclusions to the general population for which knowledge is sought. With a title as general as this, one would think that the study has general relevance to the question of whether COVID-19 mRNA vaccines and infections protect against infection and re-infection.

For such a study, I then look to see whether the study found a difference or association (or no difference or association), and then only could report a difference following statistical adjustment for variables. It is truly important to know how the various results were chosen; which variables were selected as confounders, and then, importantly, whether the confounders are suspected (weak) or if previous functional relationships of the type necessary to use the label “confounder”, rather then “covariate”, are known.

Study Earns a Popular Rationalists Score of F- on Generalizability

The study in question involves data from prisons in California’s penal system (hardly a representative population or setting relevant to the rest of society). The following inmates were excluded:

  • those who were not held in cells with other inmates
  • those who did not have housing or prior COVID-19 test result data
  • likely to have tested positive for a variant other than Omicron
  • housed in a small institution
  • negative PCR test during the infectious period (risk: false negative results)
  • had contacts w/inmates w/positive test +/- 2 days after first exposure
  • inmates without “valid” contacts
  • no negative test for PCR +/- 2 days of first exposure
  • no follow-up testing data
  • could have been exposed to >1 infected case

After Exclusions, the Study Used Only 0.79% of the Data

Starting with over 155,000 inmates, the study was based on a grand final total of 273 unvaccinated + 953 “vaccinated” = 1,226 inmates. “Vaccinated”, of course, was restricted to inmates only after 14 days after their first dose; anyone who developed COVID-19 or who died on days 1-14 after injection was excluded.

The study is relevant for 0.79% of the inmate population and is not expected to be relevant for 99.21% of the prison population in California. Thus, the PR score of F-.

Even after all of this, the initial (unadjusted) results were reported as

“Unvaccinated index cases had a 36% (31–42%) risk of transmitting to close contacts, whereas vaccinated index cases had a 28% (25–31%)”

In other words, the 95% confidence intervals overlapped (31/31). No difference. Fine.

Side note: I have dealt with the issue of adjusting for covariates as confounders – over-adjusting – before, way back on Sept 28, 2015, when I first started reading en masse all of the studies on vaccine safety I could find:

DISEASE EPIDEMIOLOGISTS AND PUBLIC HEALTH POLICY MAKERS: PLEASE STOP “ADJUSTING” FOR RACE, INCOME, AND OTHER COVARIATES WITHOUT STUDYING INTERACTION TERMShttps://jameslyonsweiler.com/disease-epidemiologists-and-public-health-policy-makers-please-stop-adjusting-for-race-income-and-other-covariates-without-studying-interaction-terms/

Not to worry – the authors are just warming up. Adjustments await the reader of the Nature study:

“Adjusting for the duration of exposure between index cases and close contacts, close contacts’ history of vaccination and prior infection, facility effects, and background SARS-CoV-2 incidence via a robust Poisson regression model, we estimated that index cases who had received ≥1 COVID-19 vaccine doses had a 22% (6–36%) lower risk of transmitting infection than unvaccinated index cases.”

Now, if you can divine what “facility effects” are from the information provided (I could not), and if you think the duration of exposure does not matter necessarily must be precisely the same between vaccinated and unvaccinated (I do not), and if you believe that the immunity of inmates’ close contact does not matter (it does), you can just use this handy percentage (22%)– and that is the percentage that is being used to claim that the vaccine works.

And of course, that is how the study is being interpreted. It is being misinterpreted as if it provides definitive proof that vaccination reduces transmission (in general) – as if the association can test the hypothesis of causality (it cannot).

But that inference should strictly be limited to assessing the risk of infection in people who have two doses, and then only 14 days after the second dose, or more specifically, inmates who are housed in close quarters with other inmates, and who also meet the exclusion criteria, and is relevant to 0.79% of the inmate population.

And because of the artificiality of the setting, sampling bias of the inmates, and peculiarities of their make-up and their behavior, It is not likely relevant to the general population.

Neil de Grasse Tyson and Bill Maher both said recently that differences between populations differ, Tyson, arm-waving and high-voicing yelping (about how correct he is) tried to use population differences to try to downplay the importance of the miracle of Sweden (as if parts of the United States do not have the same population density!), to which Maher correctly adjusted:

“You just said that we can’t make any judgment (on whether the lesson of Sweden shows our response was wrong) because don’t live in another universe where the United States handled it differently, and I’m saying there are other places that did handle it differently – and that does matter.”

Good for Maher.

The problem for the WHO, CDC, FDA, NIAID, Fauci, and people who message and think like these organizations is this: you cannot debunk reality.

Yes, Sweden matters. The data show that Sweden is doing far better than the United States, and is suffering far as a result of their response. And using inmates, Tyson, as if they are representative of the rest of the US population – well, he should be just as excited about that issue as he is about debunking the reality of Sweden.

**Comment**

Researchers beware.  The public is on to you.  You can fool some of the people some of the time but you can’t fool all of the people all of the time.

A new report reveals that Moderna neglected to share damning data about its new booster.  Even FDA vaccine advisory committee member Dr. Paul Offit is rattled:

“did shake my faith.  It shook my faith in how these decisions were being made.” ~ Dr. Paul Offit

And that, my friends, is the closest thing to an apology you are ever gonna get.

“The experience of the past year has taught us that chasing these Omicron variants with a bivalent vaccine is a losing game,” ~ Dr. Paul Offit, director of the vaccine education center at the Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia

Offit says it’s time to rethink booster recommendations in a perspective published Jan. 11 in the New England Journal of Medicine.  He states most have been infected, “vaccinated,” or both and that the latest data show the newest booster isn’t that much more effective in generating antibodies than the original vaccine when used as a booster.

Yet the narrative continues despite the avalanche of truth that continues to fall.

The reason for the walk-back by public health ‘authorities?’  Could it be due to more and more research showing the clot shot does not work but actually gives you a higher risk for infection and has the potential to kill you? Then there’s Japan – in a league of its own due to being more boosted than other countries, yet suffering from excess death and itshighest ever daily COVID death toll in the booster era of early 2022. (Japan continues to count anyone who dies with a positive test, a COVID death regardless of the actual cause)

It’s going to become harder and harder to hide from this.  Perhaps corrupt public health ‘authorities’ realize that ‘if you can’t beat them, join them?’

Another Shocking Lab Investigation of COVID “Vaccines. Doctors Told to “Zip It” Regarding Vax Injuries. Pentagon Officially Rescinds COVID Vax Requirement For the Military

Shocking Lab Investigation of COVID Vaccines

Jan 1 2023

Finally, an unbiased pathologist has taken a vaccine into the lab to demonstrate exactly what’s causing ‘the mystery of the rubbery clots.’

STORY AT-A-GLANCE

  • A recent laboratory investigation by The Highwire reveals the only consistent thing about the COVID shots are their inconsistency. There is no quality control. Some appear clear like saline, while others are loaded with contaminants
  • In August 2021, Japan rejected 1.63 million doses of Moderna’s mRNA shot due to contamination. Last year the European Medicines Agency (EMA) also expressed concern over vials that were only 50% to 55% pure
  • The vials also contain massively inconsistent amounts of polyethylene glycol (PEG). PEG can cause anaphylactic shock in some people. PEG also gets in the way of proper immune response
  • If you are unfortunate enough to get a vial that is loaded with PEG, your risk of adverse effects such as anaphylactic shock and dysregulated immune response is greater than if you get a vial with lower amounts
  • According to Dr. Ryan Cole, a pathologist, what looks like microchips or nanotechnology in the liquid are actually stacked cholesterol, sugar and salt crystals, and what has been described as parasites are stellate trikons, found on the bottom of leaves. They’re likely a contaminant picked up at some point during the lab investigation

December 12, 2022, The Highwire posted1 a fascinating and shocking lab investigation of the COVID shots. Del Bigtree begins by reviewing some of the many alleged findings by organizations looking at the shots using various technologies. For example, some claim to have found graphite in the vials, while others have discovered what looks like nanotechnology and parasites.  (See link for video and article)

______________

There have been other labs looking into the vials and all are finding numerous contaminants.

Summary of video on COVID shot lab findings:

  • Some may be getting fragmented RNA as opposed to complete RNA, which can have unforeseen consequences.
  • Using mass spectronomy, metallic particles including aluminum, silicon, magnesium, sodium chloride, calcium, titanium, and iron were found.
  • While Cole admits no graphene was found in any of the 100 vials he tested; manufacturing processes result in wildly varying contents and it has been found by other researchers.  In fact, one group found around 747 nanograms of graphene oxide which means 99% of the tested Pfizer shot was made up entirely of graphene oxide, which one expert describes as nano-razors.
  • Two harmful things he did find was the lipid nanoparticle (hyper-inflammatory & toxic) and a gene sequence that forces your body make a foreign protein.
  • The injections were meant to be given once. Studies giving it more frequently have not been done so cumulative toxicity is unknown. (This is also true that the cumulative effect of ALL vaccines is unknown)
  • The more of this gene that gets into cells that continue to make a spike protein with known countless side-effects the worse the outcomeGo here to see data on how the boosted are worse off than the unvaccinated, as well as a growing body of research that has detected negative vaccine effectiveness after a period of time and a higher likelihood of getting infected among people with more doses.
  • Cole took a drop of Bigtree’s unvaccinated blood and added a drop of the COVID injection.  In the area touched by the COVID shot, the red blood cells look like they’d evaporated.  The hemoglobin was wiped out causing the cells to turn white. The cells were also clumping toward the outside of the drop with many folding together with echinocytes clearly visible.

“It instantly changed the pH of the interior. These are little blobs of protein on the membrane of the red cell, because the red cell has involuted … All these little fingers, that is not spike protein. That’s another myth.

But that’s fascinating, because that instantly changed the pH of the interior of the cell. And it caused a massive outflow of fluid from the interior of the cell causing all that cell membrane folding. That’s wild.

It was almost instantaneous, and it is everywhere. Those red cells are now nonfunctional red cells. Those aren’t going to carry a whit of oxygen. Now your body has to decide what to do and has an inflammatory reaction, because now it has to gobble those up.”

Cole warns that ‘the powers that be’ want to try do do lipid nanoparticles with influenza, RSV, and other shots going forward when the current COVID injection program has failed and is harmful technology. Humans were not created to make foreign toxic proteins.

Cole states that not only do the COVID shots need to be stopped, but the entire platform as well.

The article ends by stating if you already got one of more shots, stop now and take no more.  He points you to the Frontline COVID-19 Critical Care Alliance’s (FLCCC) post-jab injury protocol.

Doctors Told to “Zip It” About ‘Vaccine’ Injuries

GB News

https://www.cnn.com/2023/01/10/politics/military-covid-vaccine-rescinded/index.html

Pentagon officially rescinds Covid-19 vaccine requirement for troops

 A US Marine prepares to receive the Moderna coronavirus vaccine at Camp Hansen on April 28, 2021, in Kin, Japan.
CNN — 

Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin has officially rescinded the military’s Covid-19 vaccination mandate for troops after President Joe Biden signed the 2023 National Defense Authorization Act, requiring its dismissal.

“Section 525 of the NDAA for FY 2023 requires me to rescind the mandate that members of the armed forces be vaccinated against Covid-19, issued in my August 24, 2021 memorandum … I hereby rescind that memorandum,” Austin said in a memo on Tuesday night.

Excerpts:

According to Austin’s memo, no service members currently in uniform who were pending approval for a religious or medical exemption to getting the mandate will be separated from the military. Austin also directed the services to update individuals’ military records and remove “any adverse actions solely associated with denials of requests” from their files.

As for those who have already been removed from service for their refusal to get the vaccine, which fell under failing to obey a lawful order, Austin said in the memo that the DOD is “precluded by law from awarding any characterization less than a general (under honorable conditions) discharge.” General discharges are a step down from an honorable discharge, and are typically for troops that had satisfactory service but had minor misconduct.

Service members who received that discharge because of their refusal to get the vaccine can petition their individual branch for a correction of their records, Austin said.

Unfortunately, this too is too little, too late.

Reports of injury and death in military members continue to roll out. For instance, this 22 year old soldier had to be hospitalized 9 times after the shot. This 21 year old Air Force Academy football player dies suddenly.  18 year old Marine recruit collapsed and dies during basic training.  Military whistleblowers (who have been fired on the spot for speaking out) have come forth showing that the DOD has edited the medical database to hide COVID shot injuries.

COVID Gene Therapy Injections Developed by U.S. Military Are Called “Counter Measures” & Were Ordered As “Prototypes”

**UPDATE Aug., 2023**

“Fact-checkers” continue to deny that the clot shots are gene therapy which contradicts the FDA’s own definition as well as Moderna’s Securities and Exchange Commission filings.  Further, the shots fulfill none of the original definitions for a vaccine.  The definition of vaccine was changed to include the experimental COVID gene therapies and a FOIA shows that the reason for the change was simply to shut down arguments by “right-wing COVID-19 pandemic deniers” that “COVID-19 vaccines are not vaccines per CDC’s own definition.”

While the report below is imperative to understand, so is the information in this article which exposes the military think tank side of all of this. This one minute video by former Pharma research and development executive Sasha Latypova exposes how General Talley of the DOD and others repeat the phrase ‘whole of government’ ad nauseum in press conferences which refers to preemption of state authority and state court jurisdiction due to federal jurisdictional issues. HHS secretary Azar started incorporating it into PREP Act declarations, and seems to originate from the 2010 National Security Strategy document by Obama, cited in 2012-2016 MCMI strategic plan.

This plan particularly targets the “vaccinated” in a globe-spanning military operation by destroying human autonomy by centralizing power and using implanted technology (making humans bioreactors) to reduce the population, provide mass surveillance, and tyrannical control of people’s movements.  While Charles Lieber, who created the nanotechnology, was found guilty of lying about Chinese funding, his work continues through Jia Lui of Harvard who patented Lieber’s work  (nanoscale wires/electronics which can be embedded in biological structures such as tissues and organs to apply an electrical stimulus to the biological structure).

Report Shows DOD Controlled COVID Program from the Beginning

Jan. 5, 2022

Redacted

BOMBSHELL new report shows that the Department of Defense controlled the COVID-19 Program from the very beginning… and everything we were told was political theater to cover it up. These documents were obtained by a former executive of a pharmaceutical Contract Research Organization Sasha Latypova.  Excerpt:

Pfizer-BioNTech is really a 3-party R&D alliance: Fosun-Pfizer-BioNTech, and by “party” I mean that one of the three is the Chinese Communist Party. Fosun is a huge Chinese conglomerate that owns a large number of global companies, and its chairman Guo Guangchang is a very high ranking member of the CCP. It is curious that the US DoD awarded $10 billion (Pfizer’s Operation Warp Speed/DoD/BARDA contract) to a venture whose substantial equity (and IP) holder is the the Chinese Communist Party

Latypova explains that within the documents, the injections are called “Counter Measures,” which the DOD ordered as “prototypes,” from private manufacturers.

For anyone paying attention, Dr. David Martin explained early on that these are not “vaccines,” but rather gene therapy injections – which allows manufacturers to by-pass normal safety testing commonly used with vaccines. Go here for an important article on how and why the Associated Press is lying about this fact.

Latypova also has written this article on the variability of the shots as well as the fact they are highly unstable, degrade rapidly, and will not distribute evenly as they are manually made water-fat mixtures with fat tending to float to the top, especially after several hours. Some doses will contain 50%+ more mRNA which would introduce 5-6 trillion extra mRNA molecules in the injection which will distribute all over the body in minutes, rapidly make toxic spikes, and may kill a person quickly.  One ex-pharmaceutical exec calls the injections “garbage soup.”

None of this was tested by any regulator as no acceptance criteria for vials/doses exists.

The video wraps up at about 54:10 where Morris states COVID was planned in 2013 and then questions the future.  From the documents, both Morris and Latypova agree that ‘the powers that be’ are already planning the next pandemic with the next thing on the list being to give up our sovereignty under the WHO under international health regulations so the WHO can declare a ‘pandemic’ anytime they want to, which is exactly what they’ve done numerous times before and most recently with COVID when there were only 40 cases worldwide.  This move would allow the WHO to become a global health dictatorship superseding the US Constitution, rendering individual rights null and void. Many state that despite experts defying the narrative, they could even declare a “climate change” pandemic to lock us down.

Go here for another interview of Latypova with Christine Dolan (host) and Katherine Watt (US paralegal) as they expose how the PREP Act and Countermeasures programs were used to completely bypass Constitutional Law and implement terror on the American public.

For a clear picture of the monopolization within health in action, learn how The Cares Act  holds hospitals hostage by bribing them with bonus incentive payments, medically kidnapping patients making them virtual prisoners.  Many have had to resort to the courts to get their loved one life saving treatment, which is currently banned for use by ‘the powers that be.’

The monopolization of mainstream & social media, Big Tech, asset management firms, research, public health, and mainstream medicine must be stopped or doctors & patients will have no voice and no choice.

Monopolization is the endgame.  For those of you who believe the government is the best entity to rule/decide everything, I ask you to reflect upon the rife conflicts of interest and how it has treated Lyme/MSIDS (and many other issues) for over 40 years. Then there’s the most current example of COVID, which has been handled abysmally, which one doctor states is “completely stupid” and “unethical,” and chronicles here.  A similar chronology states many of the same things.  Even CDC director Walensky freely admits the CDC bungled the affair, but she offers no meaningful change, and even has the audacity to ask for more funding.  Please do not bury your head in the sand.  Wake up and smell the coffee before it’s too late.

The COVID-19 “Vaccines” Are Weapons Developed by the U.S. Military

Comments by Brian Shilhavy
Editor, Health Impact News

With more of the American public waking up to the fact that the COVID-19 shots are linked to the epidemic of “sudden deaths,” these rushed-to-market emergency use authorized (EUA) “vaccines” are gaining more scrutiny by many in the Alternative Media, and there is now ample evidence that the U.S. Department of Defense has been behind the funding and development of these shots from the beginning.

First referred to as the “War Against the Virus” by President Donald Trump in 2020, it is obvious now that this was a planned military operation all along, and the military operation that released federal funding to fast-track these weapons of mass destruction that are called “vaccines,” was also given a military name: Operation Warp Speed.

The U.S. Military program is a huge black hole that swallows $TRILLIONS each year, and we don’t even know where half of that money goes, because the Pentagon has failed all of its audits for the past 5 years, and in 2022 it could not account for over half of its assets. (Source.)

They don’t even pretend to be fixing this problem anytime soon, because they have publicly stated that they “hope” to be able to pass their first audit by 2027. (Source.)

After two years of funding military spending on COVID “Counter Measures” to fight the “unseen” enemy of “COVID,” much of that funding switched over to Ukraine at the beginning of 2022.

The Brownstone Institute has just published a nice summary of the evidence that none of the EUA shots would have been possible without the U.S. Military, and that most of this has been hidden from the public.

I appreciate that The Brownstone Institute offers the Creative Commons license to allow others to copy and republish their work, as does Health Impact News.

This allows for the greatest distribution of information that is vital to the public, even though other publishers routinely use our articles and graphics without properly attributing it, as is required by the Creative Commons license.

More and more of the content published by the Alternative Media is moving to Substack.com, where the author can put up a paywall to access it.

As I have previously written, many of the same capital venture companies that fund Substack.com also fund other social media companies, like Twitter. See:  Protecting Your Privacy Should be a High Priority in 2023 – Beware of Substack!

And while I do make contributions to the independent publishers who request donations if I use their material, I will not give my credit card and personal data to Substack.com. In 2020 the platform “accidentally” revealed thousands of emails of their subscribers. (Source.)

I don’t know where Brownstone’s funding comes from, but at least you can read their articles for free without them collecting any personal information about you. The founder, Jeffrey A. Tucker, is also a Senior Economics Columnist for Epoch Times. (Source.)

The Epoch Times does require a paywall for most of their articles, even though they appear to be well-funded by Chinese dissidents from the Falun Gong Christian sect, according to Wikipedia.

Did National Security Imperatives Compromise COVID-19 Vaccine Safety?

by Phillip M. Altman
The Brownstone Institute

In addition to Phillip M. Altman BPharm(Hons) MSc PhD, coauthors on this piece include James Rowe BPharm, MSc, PhD FRSN, Wendy Hoy AO FAA FRACP, Gerry Brady  MBBS, Astrid Lefringhausen, PhD, Robyn Cosford MBBS(Hons) FACNEM FASLM, and Bruce Wauchope MBBS – DTM&H, Dip OBS RACOG, FRACGP.

The US Department of Defense (US DoD) has had a dominant role in the response to the SARS-CoV-2 virus and in the development, and distribution of the Covid 19 vaccines, a fact hidden from the general public. In those processes many standard steps and procedures, otherwise required for pharmaceutical products, were omitted or circumvented.

Definition of these vaccines as “countermeasures” rather than therapeutic agents has permitted their expedited progression to emergency use authorisation and widespread rollouts. Many adverse consequences have been the outcome of this secret military response to a public health matter. Why are governments around the world, including Australia, planning to make further significant investments in this rushed vaccine technology driven by the US military?

Operation Warp Speed

With the US Food and Drug Administration’s Emergency Use Authorisation of the COVID-19 vaccines (FDA, 2020) and the Provisional Approval of the first COVID-19 vaccine in Australia (TGA, 2021), these agents were hailed as innovative life-saving responses by the pharmaceutical industry to a deadly global pandemic.

The development, testing and drug regulatory approval of these novel COVID-19 gene-based vaccines using messenger ribonucleic acid (mRNA) technology was said to have been done in less than one year, whereas development and approval of conventional vaccines normally takes about 10 years. (Seneff and Nigh, 2021). The public was told that this was assisted by financial support of vaccine companies by the US government under Operation Warp Speed.

The public was told that these COVID-19 gene-based vaccines were “safe and effective” (CDCa, 2022): that they would prevent infection and chances of serious illness and death from the virus, and would prevent transmission of the virus. We now know they do not prevent infection nor transmission and have not prevented a continuing high incidence of COVID-19. Furthermore they are associated with an unprecedented incidence of serious adverse events and deaths compared to any other drugs in the history of the pharmaceutical industry. (Turni and Lefringhausen 2022; Altman, 2022; CMN, 2022; Blaylock, 2022).

Based on the US CDC Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS), there were 1,476,227 adverse event reports associated with these “vaccines” (CDCb, 2022).  through December 2, 2022, which include 32,621 reported deaths and 185,412 hospitalizations. Furthermore, a rise in unexplained deaths has been reported around the world coincident with their introduction. In Australia, up to August 2022 there were 18,671 excess deaths (17 percent) more than average, with most of these deaths not due to COVID-19 (ABS, 2022).  We are probably facing the worst health disaster in history.

How did the pharmaceutical industry, our governments and our drug regulators get it so wrong?  A plausible answer to this question has emerged within the last few weeks.

A National Security Operation

Contrary to popular belief that pharmaceutical companies drove the COVID vaccine development programs, the US FDA’s website (FDA, 2020) reveals that the United States Department of Defence (DoD) has been in full control of the Covid Vaccine development program since its beginning. The DoD has been responsible for development, manufacturing, clinical trials, quality assurance, distribution and administration, since that time (FDA, 2020; Rees and Latypova, 2022; KEI, 2022; Medical Defense Consortium, 2022; Rees, 2022). The major pharmaceutical companies have been involved as “Project Coordination Teams” effectively performing as subcontractors to the DoD. The Chief Operating Officer for the Warp Speed vaccine program is the US Department of Defence, and the Chief Science Advisor is the US Department of Health and Human Services (HHS).

The Nature of Gene-based Vaccines

The true nature of the COVID-19 ‘vaccines’ has been largely misrepresented by mainstream media, big pharmaceutical companies and governments and is poorly understood by the population at large.  Referring to these products as “vaccines” led most people to consider them as relatively safe and well-researched and readily accept their widespread use. However, they are not really vaccines – they are serious gene-based interventions which have never been deployed widely in any population, especially never to healthy individuals including children, infants and pregnant women.  In this sense they should be considered experimental.

COVID-19 ‘vaccines’ fall into a special class of therapeutic agents under the US FDA Office of Cellular, Tissue and Gene Therapies’ defined as “gene therapy products,” which involve “introducing a new or modified gene into the body to help treat a disease” (FDA, 2018). Heretofore, use of gene therapy products has been limited to the treatment of usually rare, serious and debilitating disease or genetic conditions. They have potential to cause permanent intergenerational genetic damage, cancer and interfere with reproductive capacity.

The FDA and other drug regulatory agencies have specific rules and guidelines to direct manufacturers in development and testing of such products, for both preclinical (FDA, 2013) and clinical (FDA, 2015) research.  However, the FDA did not evaluate these COVID-19 “vaccines” according to these gene therapy guidelines.

Instead, there was a concerted effort to avoid referring to them as gene therapy products, based, in part, on the argument that the genetic material in the COVID-19 vaccines was not intended to be incorporated into an individual’s DNA, nor to modify gene expression. There was no prior short-term safety information and no long-term data on which to predict future effects. No similar therapeutic products have been previously approved anywhere in the world.  Their widespread administration globally with no historical safety experience was an unprecedented risk in human health.

Accelerating Development

Messenger RNA platform technology has been researched by DARPA (Defense Advanced Projects Research Agency) since at least 2012 (McCullough, 2022).  In early 2020, in the panic to develop the COVID-19 vaccines, certain critical research and development procedures were omitted, bypassed, curtailed, or not done in a logical sequential manner, or to established laboratory or manufacturing standards. Although the spike protein is the active drug and is directly responsible for the immune response, its pharmacology and toxicology have not been studied in animals or in humans as would normally have been required.

Other notable deficiencies include lack of critical research on carcinogenicity, mutagenicity, genotoxicity and reproductive toxicology in appropriate animal species. In particular, the potential for reverse transcription of mRNA genetic material into an individual’s DNA was not investigated. Furthermore, scale-up manufacturing was premature and lacked adequate quality control to ensure that product made in large batches is the same as made in smaller batches.

Without such research, the potency, mRNA integrity, presence of contaminants and stability of the “vaccines” cannot be guaranteed. Such oversights are directly responsible for the failure to predict the serious adverse drug reactions and mortality which have now been reported in association with these vaccines

To mitigate risk, the plan in vaccine development was to use multiple technologies, multiple facilities and redundancy. Leverage of existing facilities would also take place. In the interest of expediency, the plan was to avoid using traditional pathways from early development to large-scale production.  Avoidance of quality standards and guidelines such as Good Manufacturing Practice and Good Laboratory Practice guidelines was necessary to speed development, and conventional New Drug Application (NDA) and Biologics License Application (BLA) approvals were bypassed.

Instead, the process moved rapidly using compressed timelines and overlapping stages of development towards Emergency Use Authorization (EUA). Scale-up and large volume manufacturing was planned in parallel with, instead of before, clinical trials which, again, may have contravened accepted codes of Good Manufacturing Practices. These approaches were probably a recipe for potential disaster. (Latypova, 2022; Watt and Latypova, 2022).

Key legislative elements enable the US government to authorise, fund, contract and control many DoD research programs, as follows:

  • the Emergency Use Authorisation regulations (1997) allow, in cases of emergency, a new drug to be made available with less supportive safety and efficacy data than normally required for full approval.
  • the Other Transaction Authority regulations (2015) permit contractual transactions that are not required to comply with Federal laws and regulations, and
  • the Public Readiness and Emergency Preparedness Act (PREP Act 2020) establishes limited liability for the companies involved in the contract arrangements with the DoD.

Two US DoD agencies, the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) and the Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority (BARDA), possess considerable resources for research, development and approval for various products. They also contract with a large number of companies for such functions.

The products of these programs, including the COVID-19 vaccines, are sometimes classified as “countermeasures,” “prototypes,” or “demonstrations” rather than pharmaceutical products. Those labels permit a product to avoid lengthy conventional regulatory, commercial development and testing pathways normally required for pharmaceutical products (ICH, 2022) and to proceed to Emergency Use Authorization.

The Rush to Large-Scale Manufacture

The rush to make available the Covid vaccines has reportedly led to batch-to-batch variability, with some batches associated with a high incidence of adverse vaccine reactions and mortality (Gutschi, 2022). In addition, at least 26 researchers/research teams in 16 countries, using various microscopic methods of analysis, have reported the presence of undeclared microscopic geometric and tube-like structures in both the Covid vaccine vials, and in the blood of people in widely vaccinated populations, for which there is no satisfactory explanation at this time. Furthermore, various spectroscopic methods of analysis have detected the presence of undeclared and unexpected metals (German Working Group, 2022; Hughes, 2022).

Under normal circumstances, even a tiny fraction of the reported quality, efficacy or safety problems associated with the Covid vaccines would have led to their immediate withdrawal, but this has not happened. Pharmaceutical regulators globally seem to be willfully blind to the problems. Governments and the mainstream media appear to show no interest in uncovering the truth or conducting a public debate on these critical matters. Why?

The answer appears to be that, in the interest of national security, the US DoD took charge of the Covid vaccine funding, development and testing from the very start of the perceived threat in early 2020. In the early panic, normal prudent quality, safety and efficacy considerations were compromised. Drug regulators played, and continue to play, an acquiescent role in approving and endorsing these vaccines. We now see this was a mistake. Many are now of the opinion that the Covid vaccines appear to have done more harm than good (Dopp and Seneff, 2022). Uncovering the truth has been a slow and arduous process, which has been exacerbated by the intense and unprecedented censorship of doctors and scientists, which continues to this day.

Conclusion

Many questions have arisen about the COVID vaccines concerning the lack of adequate manufacturing practices, quality control, basic pharmacological and toxicological studies and the lack of appropriate clinical safety and efficacy studies. Drug regulatory authorities seem reluctant to acknowledge the unprecedented level of reported serious adverse drug reactions and deaths associated with these products. There is also serious concern regarding the increases in excess deaths from all causes in many countries suspiciously with their use. Our health authorities steadfastly refuse to consider that the vaccines themselves may be to blame.

The public was told these COVID vaccines were “safe and effective” without qualification even though they were not fully approved. Why was the public not advised that the normal standards of quality, safety and efficacy were not applied to the development and testing of these vaccines? Why was this kept secret? Why are governments around the world, including Australia, planning to make further significant investments in this unsafe vaccine technology? Will these national security arrangements still be in place for future vaccines and other pharmaceutical products?

The fate of humanity and all future generations is literally at a critical tipping point and few global power brokers and political decision-makers appear to realise the gravity of the situation.
