Informed consent disclosure to vaccine trial subjects of risk of COVID-19 vaccines worsening clinical disease

Free PMC article

Abstract

Aims of the study: Patient comprehension is a critical part of meeting medical ethics standards of informed consent in study designs. The aim of the study was to determine if sufficient literature exists to require clinicians to disclose the specific risk that COVID-19 vaccines could worsen disease upon exposure to challenge or circulating virus.

Methods used to conduct the study: Published literature was reviewed to identify preclinical and clinical evidence that COVID-19 vaccines could worsen disease upon exposure to challenge or circulating virus. Clinical trial protocols for COVID-19 vaccines were reviewed to determine if risks were properly disclosed.

Results of the study: COVID-19 vaccines designed to elicit neutralising antibodies may sensitise vaccine recipients to more severe disease than if they were not vaccinated. Vaccines for SARS, MERS and RSV have never been approved, and the data generated in the development and testing of these vaccines suggest a serious mechanistic concern: that vaccines designed empirically using the traditional approach (consisting of the unmodified or minimally modified coronavirus viral spike to elicit neutralising antibodies), be they composed of protein, viral vector, DNA or RNA and irrespective of delivery method, may worsen COVID-19 disease via antibody-dependent enhancement (ADE). This risk is sufficiently obscured in clinical trial protocols and consent forms for ongoing COVID-19 vaccine trials that adequate patient comprehension of this risk is unlikely to occur, obviating truly informed consent by subjects in these trials.

Conclusions drawn from the study and clinical implications: The specific and significant COVID-19 risk of ADE should have been and should be prominently and independently disclosed to research subjects currently in vaccine trials, as well as those being recruited for the trials and future patients after vaccine approval, in order to meet the medical ethics standard of patient comprehension for informed consent.

**Comment**

Another warning shot over the bow that public health ‘authorities’ and the mainstream media are not alerting the public, and particularly vaccine trial participants of the very real issue of ADE.  

According to our public health ‘authorities’ and bought out mainstream media, the mantra “vaccines are safe and effective” is just repeated over and over until it is believed, despite all the evidence to the contrary.  People questioning this narrative are simply bullied through name-calling and below the belt hits. They are further then used to set an example to others to effectively keep the opposition at bay.  Rule by fear.

Recently, Notices of Liability for COVID-19 Vaccine Harms and Deaths were served to all members of the European Parliament, and the group Stand For Health Freedom has developed an Evidence-Based Position Paper to Ensure Ethical Conduct.  This latter group states that a

“theme began to stand out as a consistent concern. Safe and effective treatments for COVID-19 are inexplicably being withheld. As you read the full position paper, you will encounter many similar examples of what appears to be willful misconduct.”

Medical Journal Calls For Ivermectin to be ‘Globally & Systemically Deployed’

Medical journal calls for Ivermectin to be ‘globally & systematically deployed’

The study’s authors found large, statistically significant reductions in mortality and recovery time in addition to ‘significantly reduced risks of contracting COVID-19 with the regular use of ivermectin.’

May 6, 2021 (LifeSiteNews) –– The American Journal of Therapeutics has published a research paper calling for ivermectin — a drug which has been maligned and suppressed as a coronavirus treatment — to be “globally & systematically deployed” as a treatment for COVID-19.

This comes as welcome news as local jurisdictions and governments worldwide seek to establish policies which would enforce mandatory vaccinations in order for citizens to participate fully in society. Many have wondered if perhaps governments and Big Pharma have an agenda to push the vaccine while eliminating cheaper, more effective ways of treating the coronavirus.

In an article titled “Review of the Emerging Evidence Demonstrating the Efficacy of Ivermectin in the Prophylaxis and Treatment of COVID-19,” the study’s authors found large, statistically significant reductions in mortality and recovery time in addition to “significantly reduced risks of contracting COVID-19 with the regular use of ivermectin.”

They also cite many examples of “ivermectin distribution campaigns leading to rapid population-wide decreases in morbidity and mortality,” prompting them to conclude that as an oral agent, ivermectin is “effective in all phases of COVID-19.”  (See link for article)

**Comment**

The study authors are far from alone. More doctors and economists state tens of thousands of lives could have been saved if research on COVID treatments hadn’t been suppressed.

The full-frontal attack on cheap effective treatments for COVID-19 is mind-blowing.

Lyme/MSIDS patients shouldn’t be shocked since the same thing has been going on in Lyme-land for over 40 years. 

The Associated Press, FDA, NIH, CDC, Medscape, and therefore most doctors, continue to malign Ivermectin as well as any other successful treatments – except the expensive drug Remdesivir, that doesn’t even work for COVID, that our public ‘authorities’ have a vested interest in.

The article does a great job of giving the vast evidence for Ivermectin including the fact it’s on the WHO’s “list of essential medicines.” 

It also mentions YouTube’s censorship of a Senate hearing because it defied the accepted narrative.  In that hearing, Dr. Pierre Kory passionately explained how he and an international group of doctors (Front Line COVID-19 Critical Care Alliance or FLCCC) discovered and successfully use Ivermectin in every phase of COVID-19 illness.  They found it led to up to a 83% lower than average death rate in hospitals.

The group found Ivermectin to not only be anti-parasitic (it’s commonly used for worms), but anti-viral, and anti-inflammatory – all issues related to COVID-19.

And importantly, there is now data from over 20 well designed clinical studies – 10 of which are randomized, controlled trials detailing significant benefits in:

  • reducing transmission rates
  • shortening recovery times
  • decreasing hospitalizations
  • reducing deaths

Our government has been complicit in this information war by funding fraudulent research on HCQ, and suppressing or even banning effective treatments for COVID-19.

Recently 120 doctors have asked JAMA to retract a misleading study on Ivermectin.  The study authors all had conflicts of interest – primarily with large pharmaceutical companies manufacturing vaccines and competing drugs.

Under the disingenuously named “COVID-19 Consumer Protection Act” — part of the 2021 Consolidated Appropriations Act signed into law by then-President Trump in late December — the U.S. Department of Justice is actively pursuing enforcement actions against healthcare providers who encourage use of supplements such as zinc and vitamin D to treat or prevent COVID.

While our conflict riddled public health ‘authorities’ malign any test or drug that competes with their own lucrative products, there is a growing by the day group of health professionals speaking out at great personal cost – yet these experts, are also being maligned,censored and charged as criminals at an unprecedented rate.

How to Co-Exist With Wisconsin’s Ticks

https://mywisconsinwoods.org/2020/05/27/how-to-co-exist-with-wisconsins-ticks/

By Denise Thornton

If you plan to be out in the woods or live next to woods, don’t be too quick to trade long pants and long sleeves for shorts and a tee shirt as the weather warms. You need to protect yourself from the ticks that are starting to emerge. Tick bites are possible year-round, but ticks are most active April through September.

Many types of ticks never feed on people. In Wisconsin, the two most common ticks that do are the wood tick, which is not a health concern here, and the black-legged tick (Ixodes scapularis), commonly known as the deer tick, which can transmit several serious diseases including Lyme disease and, more recently, anaplasmosis, which can start with symptoms like fever and nausea and in some cases, progress to organ failure.

Wisconsin is Tick Heaven

The Upper Midwest and the northeastern states are hardest hit by Lyme disease, and the numbers in Wisconsin are rising. According to the Wisconsin Department of Health Services, Wisconsin had 3,105 estimated cases in 2018.

Once considered to be a north woods hazard, deer ticks are now found in every county of the state. Deer are an important blood source for adult ticks, and in 2018 overwinter deer densities in the state varied from three to over 60 per square mile. The abundant woodlands interspersed with agriculture throughout much of central and southwestern Wisconsin creates high quality deer habitat.

“There’s been a change in the past 25 years,” says Dr. Susan Paskewitz, chair of the UW-Madison Department of Entomology. Ticks thrive in moist, shady forested environments, and love our increasingly mild winters. “We find them in pine forests, mixed forests and deciduous forests.”

Paskewitz has sampled along the woody edges and out into the yard in neighborhoods in Eau Claire and near Delton.

“Of 90 houses tested, by the end of June, 80 percent of them had at least one deer tick in the area we were sampling. Most were within three to six feet of the woods,” Paskewitz continued, “but a few were found in bright, open, mowed lawn. I don’t think they live long there, but they were making their way out there, so if you are walking out to get your mail without your shoes on, you might pick up that particular tick.”  (See link for article)

They say a picture‘s worth a thousand words.  The picture of this tick in the gum line in the mouth of a dog shows how durable and tenacious ticks are.

A few points for consideration:

  • Migrating birds, rodents, deer, lizards, and human movement are transporting ticks everywhere.  For far too long doctors have been looking at maps to diagnose people.  Trust me, ticks are virtually everywhere and adapt to weather conditions quite easily.
  • If I’ve written this once, I’ve written it 1,000 times – many people never see the tick or the rash and research shows the rash is highly variable – certainly not a sure thing.  
  • For more on tick prevention:  https://madisonarealymesupportgroup.com/2019/04/12/tick-prevention-2019/  I’m happy to report I saw some controlled burning in ditches as I was driving North today.  This has proven to reduce tick populations significantly.  I wish more of this was happening.
  • Regarding the section on if you find a tick bite: while it’s true that removing the tick as soon as possible is step #1, step #2 is getting prompt treatment as the “wait and see” approach has doomed patients to decades of suffering.  Demand immediate prophylactic treatment for each and every tick bite.  Trust me – whatever mild side effects and inconvenience a month or two’s worth of doxycycline can cause is nothing compared to the pain and suffering of a chronic, relapsing infection.
  • Testing for all tick-borne illnesses is abysmal.  Lyme is just the tip of the spear.  Ticks are literal garbage cans full of numerous pathogens they can transmit in just one bite.  The only infections listed in this article were Lyme disease, Anaplasmosis, and Babesia, when there are 19 and counting infections ticks can transmit.  Research has shown being infected with more than one pathogen causes more severe illness for a longer duration.  It is imperative that treatment includes medications that focus on each pathogen.  For the mounting list of tick-borne pathogens:
    • Babesiosis
    • Bartonellosis
    • Borrelia miyamotoi
    • Bourbon Virus
    • Colorado Tick Fever
    • Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic Fever
    • Ehrlichiosis/Anaplasmosis
    • Heartland Virus
    • Meat Allergy/Alpha Gal
    • Pacific Coast Tick Fever: Richettsia philipii
    • Powassan Encephalitis
    • Q Fever
    • Rickettsia parkeri Richettsiosis
    • Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever (RMSF)
    • SFTS: Severe Fever with Thrombocytopenia Syndrome
    • STARI: Southern Tick-Associated Rash Illness
    • Tickborne meningoencephalitis
    • Tick Paralysis
    • Tularemia
  • While the wood tick and deer tick are the most common ticks in Wisconsin, they are hardly the only ticks we must be concerned about.  Go here for more on the various types of ticks and the diseases they carry. The Lone Star tick has been found in Wisconsin and one allergist in MN states he diagnoses approximately 1 patient per month with Alpha-gal allergy – some patients hailing from WI.  Wisconsin is a hot-spot for Powassan virus, and we recently had our first death due to Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever. It would be a huge mistake to believe you only have to worry about Lyme, Anaplasmosis, and Babesia in Wisconsin.  Nearly every patient I work with also has Bartonella – a tenacious pathogen that isn’t even on most doctors’ radars, and Mycoplasma is very common.
  • Most articles such as these don’t tell you what to do once you’ve become infected. Optimally, you would be prepared before this ever happened by finding the Lyme literate doctors (LLMD) in your state.  The best way to do this is to contact your local Lyme support group. There is also a tab on the right side of this website called, “Find a Lyme Support Group.”  There is also another tab slightly down from that in which you can contact ILADS directly for doctors in your area.  Read this if you don’t know what a LLMD is.  LLMDs are specially trained in tick-borne illness and know how to diagnose patients clinically.  This is crucial because current 2-tiered CDC testing misses anywhere from 70-85% of cases or more.  You truly can not trust testing.  They also know how to treat this complex illness that typically is far more than just Lyme.

Fauci, “The Greatest Mass Killer of Our Generation.”

“Something has gone off the rails in the world” with the treating of COVID-19. For one thing, despite our being more than a year into the pandemic, there’s still no “official treatment protocol” for the virus. This is a failure of the health establishment — and one that’s costing thousands of lives.

So laments Dr. Peter McCullough, vice chief of internal medicine at Baylor University Medical Center (BUMC), chief of cardiovascular research of the Baylor Heart and Vascular Institute, and program director of the cardiovascular disease fellowship program at BUMC.  (Go to link for article)

*Update* A bill has been introduced in the House to #FireFauci.

“Few People Have Earned Their Termination More Visibly”

The article points out that Dr. McCullough is an internist with the same qualification as Dr. Fauci, but who actually treats patients.

When McCullough spoke with his Italian colleagues about COVID they told him:

“‘this [COVID-19] is like a cold, except, the immune system goes crazy in the middle part of it, and then there’s blood clotting and thrombosis.’ …That’s what kills you.”

“‘So we take an edge off the viral replication early,’” the doctor continued, quoting the Italians on their treatment efforts. “‘We treat the immune system ‘dis-regulation,’ and then we manage the blood clotting, [and] we can get people through the illness’” (video below).

The article exemplifies the fact most doctors/hospitals ‘toe the line’ and are unlikely to use “unofficial” treatments out of fear.  This is also a great example and clearly evident in the world of Lyme disease.  Doctors that treat outside the CDC’s unscientific and antiquated “guidelines” that rule like the iron curtain, are hunted down by State Medical Boards and persecuted.  This form of bullying sends a loud and clear message to all other doctors: “follow the narrative, do what you are told, or you’re next.”

What is truly bizarre (but not, when you understand the corrupt CDC and their MO) is the fact this organization would rather see people die than give them appropriate treatment.

This is also clearly seen in the world of Lyme. Despite a plethora of research showing Lyme and most of the other infections ticks transmit are persistent, relapsing, and are not completely eradicated with treatment, our public health ‘authorities’ just simply deny it, hold their ground, and repeat the mantra that Lyme is hard to get and easy to treat.

The article told the story of an elderly friend with COVID who was given no treatment and then died.  This is presently happening all over the world.

But, I have personally learned an unbelievable story:

An elderly man from Wisconsin called the ER due to health spiraling down due to a suspected COVID infection.  They showed up at his house donned in hazmat suits, declared they wouldn’t touch him and informed him he would need to get himself upon the gurney.  From there he was taken to the local hospital where again, he was treated like a leper, and nobody would touch him.  They called Medflight and took him to a larger hospital where the only treatment that was offered was the ventilator, which thankfully was refused as the elderly gentleman understood that the ventilator has killed many patients early on in the ‘pandemic.’  The doctor simply looked down at him and announced he’d be dead in 5 days.

I tell you this story because this is needless neglect/slaughter when effective treatments are available but highly censored and kept from the public – including doctors.  

I’m happy to report that this elderly Wisconsinite is quite alive and defied them all, despite their refusal to treat him.

The article discusses Dr. McCullough’s Texas Senate testimony and the fact 85% of COVID patients given a multi-drug treatment recovered from it and developed complete natural immunity.  Further, he states that thousands could be saved if this suppressed treatment was freely given (which could also be said of Lyme/MSIDS).

Sadly, McCullough cannot get papers published on this treatment as all information is scrubbed and sanitized to fit the accepted narrative (and is also experienced in Lyme-land).

McCullough states Fauci is “the greatest mass killer of our generation.”  

But the bought-out media feeds the public a continual narrative of how great Fauci is, despite the fact the creator of the PCR, Kary Mullis, called him a liar and an ass_ _ _ _, and many others have pointed out his severe conflicts of interest and sordid history as mafia overlord of NIAID for 7 presidencies.

If you you suspect you are infected with COVID but live in an area where doctors are kowtowing the accepted narrative and refuse to treat you, go here:  https://www.americasfrontlinedoctors.org/covid-19/how-do-i-get-covid-19-medication

It’s unconscionable people have to do this but completely understood in Lyme Land where you must often travel great distances to get to a Lyme literate doctor experienced in treating tick-borne illness.

Bill Gates, China, 23andMe, And Your DNA

The purpose of this post is 3-fold:

  • Everyone should understand this for privacy reasons.  Medical care should be personal, confidential, and protected.
  • Lyme/MSIDS patients in particular often get DNA testing to discover if they have the MTHFR gene or other genes that may inhibit proper detoxification as well as information on their ability to handle certain medications.
  • To reveal, yet again, the importance of understanding the many conflicts of interest and the tangled web of connections that best exemplify the expression, “Things are not as they seem.”  These conflicts of interest/connections drive public health decisions which in turn affect all of us.

Gates

Bill Gates, China, 23andMe, And Your DNA

Is there a connection between China, Bill Gates, YouTube, and DNA collection?

Recent reports reveal that a Chinese company with connections to the Gates Foundation is involved in COVID-19 testing and poses a potential threat to American privacy, particularly the medical and health data of those who have been tested for COVID-19.

In late January, CBS’ 60 Minutes reported:

“60 Minutes has learned Chinese company BGI Group, the largest biotech firm in the world, offered to build COVID labs in at least six states, and U.S. intelligence officials issued warnings not to share health data with BGI. 

The largest biotech firm in the world wasted no time in offering to build and run COVID testing labs in Washington, contacting its governor right after the first major COVID outbreak in the U.S. occurred there. The Chinese company, the BGI Group, made the same offer to at least five other states, including New York and California, 60 Minutes has learned. This, along with other COVID testing offers by BGI, so worried Bill Evanina, then the country’s top counterintelligence officer, that he authorized a rare public warning.”

“Foreign powers can collect, store and exploit biometric information from COVID tests” declared the notice. Evanina believes the Chinese are trying to collect Americans’ DNA to win a race to control the world’s biodata.”  (See link for article)

  • This information could be used to monopolize drugs and treatments.
  • Reuters reported in January that more than 40 publicly available documents and research papers show BGI’s regular partnering with the People’s Liberation Army (PLA). They share a dozen patents for DNA tests.  A 2015 patent is for a “low-cost kit to detect respiratory pathogens, including SARS (Sever Respiratory Syndrome) and coronaviruses.  
  • BGI’s chief infectious disease expert is listed as an inventor on the patent while also being one of the 1st scientists to have sequenced COVID-19 samples from a Wuhan military hospital. Please remember; however, that China’s chief epidemiologist states the virus was NOT isolated.
  • Natalie Winter of National Pulse uncovered documentation of a relationship between the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation and BGI going back nearly a decade, with the Gates Foundation funding BGI projects relating to genome sequencing alongside Chinese Communist Party bodies such as the Ministry of Science and Technology and Academy of Agricultural Sciences.  Dr. Tadataka Yamada, former president of the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation’s global health program, serves as the Chairman of BGI’s Scientific Advisory Board.
  • BGI, worth a market value of around $9 million and known for creating a cloned pig, has sold millions of their COVID-19 test kits around the world.

The article then switches to dangers posed by genealogy companies and that millions have voluntarily submitted their DNA for ancestry and health information.

A former counterintelligence officer told 60 Minutes that Chinese companies are investing in U.S. biotech companies which gives them access to health data. This officer ominously states that this genetic material represents “your past and your future as well as your children’s future.”

China is far from alone and most governments will seek to mine DNA information, which includes the U.S. government, military, as well as private companies.

The article then states 23andMe was discussed on 60 Minutes and that its CEO states the company plans to use DNA information to develop drugs.  The company announced in February it would become a publicly traded company with help from billionaire Richard Branson.

The article connects a spider-web which includes Branson, Jeffrey Epstein, Bill Gates and the BGI Group.  Another little known web includes the CEO of 23andMe, her sister who is CEO of Youtube, and her former husband – one of the founders of Google (which owns Youtube) and president of Alphabet Inc. until 2019.

These webs must be understood due to severe conflicts of interest to understand the wide censorship by Youtube labeling anything that doesn’t fit the COVID-19 narrative as “misinformation.”
