Long COVID, Post Vaccination Syndrome, Clots and the D-Dimer

The COVID-19 spike protein is responsible for serious clotting disorders being seen more and more often.  This is happening so much that morticians are now commenting about the record number of “rubber-like” bands being pulled from people’s vascular systems upon starting the embalming process.

Fibrous Clots found in corpses by Richard Hirschman (https://www.theepochtimes.com/health/why-spike-protein-causes-abnormal-blood-clots-200-symptoms_4842684.html)

I’ve personally seen at least 50 cases over the last two years where patients present with profound fatigue, SOB, abdominal pain, diarrhea and extremity pain post vaccination with no really clear explanation in the medical literature until now.  Patients exposed or vaccinated are having these symptoms linger for as long as 24 months.

A large scale cohort UK study based on 48 million adults in England and Wales found that in the first week after a COVID-19 diagnosis, the risk of an arterial blood clot was nearly 22 times higher than in someone without COVID-19, and 33 times higher for those with a venous clot condition.

A clot in the artery is the kind that could cause a heart attack or ischemic stroke by blocking blood flow to the heart or brain.  That’s different from a clot in the vein leading to a clot in the lung.  Though we are seeing both in escalating numbers.

An estimated 10,500 additional cases of clot-related problems, i.e. about 7,200 additional heart attacks or strokes, and 3,500 additional cases of pulmonary embolism, deep vein thrombosis, or other venous problems was identified in this British study alone.   Even though that risk drops sharply to less than four times higher than someone without COVID in the second week, it remains high (2x) even up to 49 weeks after the initial diagnosis. This is especially so in regards to the risk of blood clot formation in the legs (deep vein thrombosis or DVTs).

It’s All Due to the Spike Protein

The spike protein that the virus is wrapped in and that the vaccine causes to be replicated in your RNA is the actual trigger for the clotting cascade.  It’s the reason I called it the ‘clot shot” last year and now we know it increases clotting in three different mechanisms.

The nasty little virus, SARS-CoV-2, enters our cells via a fancy little protein receptor call the angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2).  And, not so lucky for them, Endothelial cells (ECs), express an abundance of ACE2. ECs reside on the inner surface of every blood vessel across our entire body, making them a direct target of the virus infection.

Many other cells, including lung epithelial cells, enterocytes lining the small intestines, and cardiac pericytes, all express ACE2.

Spike proteins don’t only activate epithelial cells (EC) and promote localized inflammation. They also promote systemic inflammation as ACE2 is almost everywhere inside our major organs and tissues.  And, this coding literally gets written into the DNA.

This leads to more pro-inflammatory genes getting expressed. More and more immune cells are attracted and sent to the injured or infected tissues (vessels in the lung, heart, gut, etc).

A number of downstream events occurs contributing further to the clotting cascade:

  1. Complement-mediated inflammation of epitheliums (endothelialitis): Spike proteins docking on ACE2 ECs activates the complement pathway and coagulation cascade, resulting in a systemic endothelialitis (lung injury) and procoagulant state (tendency to develop blood clots).
  2. As the complement destroys the endothelium, the procoagulant von Willebrand factor (vWF) and FVIII are released. A significant increase of vWF can form multimers that promote thrombus growth. vWF is secreted mainly from endothelial cells and from a-granules of platelets (megakaryocytes derived). This is comparable to the string in the “beads and string” of a necklace where the beads represent platelets.
  3. Platelet storm: Platelets are a small fragment of the megakaryocytes. The complement anaphylatoxins C3a and C5a activate platelets and increase the production of tissue factor further promoting a clotting forming state. ACE2 receptors are present on platelets, and this may contribute to the massive platelet aggregation, which is a characteristic of severe COVID-19 infection.
  4. Activation of neutrophils leads to formation of neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs), a process sometimes referred to as NETosis, which contributes to thrombosis.
  5. EC injury is compounded by toll-like receptor (TLR) activation by viral RNA recognition, with resulting increased reactive oxidative species (ROS) production. The increased ROS further upregulates the expression of vWF. The DNA expression of clotting sensitivity is literally turned up.
  6. Spike proteins can induce expression and secretion of a series of clotting proteins which cascades into the clotting process, including factor (F)-V, thrombin, and fibrinogen to promote clotting process.

Spike Protein Impairs Regulation of RAAS – Leading to More Clots

Now if all of the above wasn’t bad enough, because the spike protein directly interacts with ACE2 expression, COVID-19 patients showed an elevated level of serum angiotensin II indicating a dysregulation of the RAA system (renin angiotensin aldosterone system, or RAAS).

Traditionally, people think angiotensin II is a neurohormone that stimulates the constriction of vascular smooth muscle cells and is responsible for salt and water balance, controlling blood pressure. However, there have been abundant studies supporting the idea that angiotensin II is capable of initiating and upregulating inflammatory responses, worsening the clotting state.

In a normal immune response, these mechanisms help to calm down the local injury, with subsequent healing and returning to a resting EC state.

However, for predisposed COVID-19 patients or vaccinated patient, the factors strengthening clot formation can over power the normal healing mechanisms, all of which lead to an escalating thrombotic cascade.

The Birth of a COVID Clot (it’s like a TV Soap Opera story)

The spike induced endothelial disruption leads to massive amounts of vWF release. Then a subsequent platelet storm happens leading to hypoxia induced upregulation and activation of vWF.  What follows is a fibrous network from neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs), as well as increased angiotensin II levels, all adding up to initiate thrombogenesis. In a nutshell, the spike protein drives the formation of the clot through six different dysregulated mechanisms and is the beginning of the long rubbery clots in the arterial system of the body. Furthermore, the upcoming second scene takes another pivotal part in the whole story.

A COVID vaccine instructs the cells to produce large quantities of spike proteins. Normal biochemical and physiological processes are “hijacked” in order to make an abnormal amount of these spike proteins.  Again, your DNA is hijacked to make more spike protein.  Did you know that?

These abnormal amounts of spike protein have more surprising direct effects on clots.

Spike Proteins Directly Disrupt the Clot Dissolving Mechanism

In a normal healthy person, the body will, in the presence of a blood clot, break the clot down by a process of fibrinolysis. This is a natural healing and balancing mechanism to prevent an abundance of blood clots.

During this process, Tissue Plasminogen activator (TPA, coming from the endothelium) helps plasminogen change into plasmin and then this causes the generation of d-dimer (a small protein fragment left when a blood clot dissolves). This is the flag telling us that the clot dissolving mechanism is broken. This is what I commonly measure every 2-4 weeks in these patients. Interestingly, these patients symptoms resolve once the d-dimer is normal.

Every one of my 50 patients has had D-Dimers elevated for 6-24 months.

It has been discovered that fibrinogen in blood can clot into an abnormal “amyloid” form of fibrin that (like other β-rich amyloids and prions) is relatively resistant to proteolysis (fibrinolysis). This is essential amyloid that is hard to remove.

This has been and is strongly seen in the platelet-poor plasma (PPP) of individuals with long COVID and post vaccination long haul syndrome.  What is scary is that the extensive fibrin amyloid microclots can persist.

In a recent study by Grobbelaar published in Bioscience Reports in August 2021, the biomarker S1 (or the intruding part of the spike protein) alone can induce fibrin resistance to fibrinolysis, leading to unopposed microclot formation.

When spike protein S1 was added to healthy PPP, it resulted in structural changes to β and γ fibrin(ogen), complement 3, and prothrombin. These proteins were substantially resistant to trypsinization in the presence of spike protein S1.

Hence, the results suggest that the presence of spike protein in circulation may contribute to the hyper-clotting status, and may cause substantial impairment of the clot dissolving process.

Such lytic impairment may result in the persistent large microclots that people have reported and which have been found in plasma samples of COVID-19 patients.

These microclots block up capillaries, and thus to limit the passage of red blood cells, and hence oxygen exchange, which can actually underpin the majority of these symptoms.

Spike Proteins Form Amyloid-Like Substance

Furthermore, to everyone’s surprise, the spike proteins are identified to present seven amyloidogenic sequences and are able to form amyloid-like substances.

In other words, these spike proteins are similar to those beta-amyloid or tau or alpha-synuclein like substances which may cause neuronal loss in Alzheimer’s or Parkinson’s disease. Their structure makes it easy to form tighter string-like bonded structures with longitudinal twisting as well as cross binding, forming a fibrous-like structure visible under the microscope.

Researchers have found that plasma samples from long COVID patients still contain large anomalous (amyloid) deposits (microclots), which are resistant to fibrinolysis (compared to plasma from controls and diabetes), even after trypsinization (cell dissociation after an enzyme breaks down proteins).

After a second trypsinization, the persistent pellet deposits (microclots) were solubilized. Various inflammatory molecules substantially increased in both the supernatant and trapped in the solubilized pellet deposits of COVID-19, versus that of the control samples.

Of particular interest was a substantial increase in α(2)-antiplasmin (α2AP), various fibrinogen chains, as well as Serum Amyloid A (SAA) that were trapped in the solubilized fibrinolytic-resistant pellet deposits.

Significant abnormal amyloid microclot formation that are resistant to fibrinolysis, increased α2AP, and the surge of acute phase inflammatory molecules may therefore be central contributors in both COVID-19 infection and as well as COVID vaccine-related syndrome.

Spike Protein Inhibits Another Anti-Clot Mechanism

Spike protein just keeps presenting one surprise after another.

It’s been reported that the spike protein can competitively inhibit the bindings of antithrombin and heparin cofactor II to heparin, causing abnormal increase in thrombin (clotting) activity. SARS-CoV-2 spike proteins at a similar concentration (~10 μg/mL) as the viral load in critically ill patients can directly cause blood coagulation and thrombosis in the zebrafish model.

These unexpected negative effects of spike protein on the dissolving process of blood clots, including its amyloid nature, all may be the key contributory factors to the abnormal, lengthy fibrous clots observed in COVID-related conditions.

The Spike Protein Is the Smoking Gun

There is clinical evidence that the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein has been detected in clots retrieved from COVID-19 patients with acute ischemic stroke and myocardial infarction.

Recent research conducted by cardiologists from the University of Colorado sheds light on the crucial role of spike protein in the pathology of COVID and COVID vaccine-related injuries.

They analyzed seven COVID-19 patients and six mRNA vaccinated patients with myocardial injury and found nearly identical alterations in gene profiling patterns that would predispose them to clotting state, inflammation, and myocardial dysfunction.

In other words, regardless of whether the myocarditis was caused by the virus or vaccine, the expression of genes responsible for prothrombotic state was turned on in response to the spike protein, and inflammation and myocardial dysfunction exhibited similar changes.

Based on gene analysis, COVID-19 and post-mRNA vaccine injury have a common molecular mechanism.  The altered genes pattern includes down-regulation in ACE2, ACE2/ACE ratio, AGTR1, and ITGA5, and up-regulation in ACE and F3 (tissue factor).

What is more alarming, and not previously reported, is that microvascular thrombosis has been found in post-vaccinated patients, indicating that spike protein itself is able to trigger blood clots in susceptible patients.

The Tip of the Iceberg?

Unfortunately, this may only be the beginning.  The AstraZenica COVID adenovirus (ChAdOx1-S) vaccine pulled from the marked caused antibody (auto-immune) formation to platelet factor 4 (PF4).  Auto-immunity can take years to form before it is recognized.

These unusual blood clots in combination with thrombocytopenia were reported predominantly in women aged under 60 years. Accordingly, several European countries restricted the use of adenovirus vaccines in younger age groups.

This risk has been recently systematically analyzed in an international network cohort study from five European countries and the United States, confirming pooled 30 percent increased risk of thrombocytopenia after a first dose of the ChAdOx1-S vaccine, as well as a trend towards an increased risk of venous thrombosis with thrombocytopenia syndrome after Ad26.COV2.S (the Janssen COVID vaccine) compared with BNT162b2 (the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID vaccine).

What Works to Detoxify the Spike Protein?

I’ve listed my go-to medications below in the order of effectiveness in my clinical experience.

Ivermectin – Ivermectin is a compound that originated from nature.  Satoshi Omura, a Japanese microbiologist and organic chemist, who grew up in a farmer’s family, discovered from soil samples the predecessor compound of ivermectin, Streptomyces Avermectinius, and modified it into ivermectin.

Ivermectin has been in use for more than 50 years. Ivermectin was first used in the treatment of parasitic diseases, such as onchocerciasis, river blindness, and elephantiasis.

In addition to treating parasites, in vitro cellular experiments have revealed that ivermectin has broad-spectrum antiviral effects. It can be used to fight against RNA viruses (including HIV, the dengue fever virus, influenza viruses) and DNA viruses.

In addition, ivermectin has a variety of antiviral mechanisms. It can also inhibit viral entry into cells and viral protease function, thus blocking viral replication.

A study published in the journal In Vivo found that ivermectin might interfere with the attachment of spike protein to the human cell membrane.

In an in vitro study on ivermectin published in Antiviral Research, the researchers added ivermectin to cells infected with the SARS-CoV-2 virus and then harvested the supernatant and cell pellets for further analysis. It was revealed that within 48 hours of adding 5 μM ivermectin, the viral SARS-CoV-2 RNA was reduced by 99.999 percent, leaving only 0.001 percent.

A prospective, observational study of the citywide COVID-19 prevention with ivermectin program was conducted between July 2020 and December 2020 in Itajaí, Brazil.

In the absence of contraindications, ivermectin was offered as an optional treatment to be taken for two consecutive days every 15 days at a dose of 0.2 mg/kg/day.

Of the 223,128 citizens of Itajaí considered for the study, a total of 159,561 subjects were included in the analysis: 113,845 (71.3 percent) regular ivermectin users and 45,716 (23.3 percent) non-users. The main findings are: The regular use of ivermectin at 0.2 mg/kg/day for 2 days every 15 days led to a 68 percent reduction in COVID-19 mortality (0.8 percent versus 2.6 percent among ivermectin non-users; p < 0.0001). There was a 56 percent reduction in hospitalization rate (p < 0.0001).

Minocycline – Doxycycline or Minocycline may stop the cytokine storm produced by this segment of spike protein superantigen activity ( Francini E, Miano ST, Fiaschi AI, Francini G. Doxycycline or minocycline may be a viable treatment option against SARS-CoV-2. Med Hypotheses 2020;144:110054. doi: 10.1016/j.mehy.2020.110054. Available at: https://tinyurl.com/bddyrfx2. Accessed May 19, 2022.)

Colchicine – (Colcrys) for pericarditis: colchicine is indicated for the treatment and prevention of gout, though it is also generally considered first-line treatment for acute pericarditis, as well as preventing recurrent episodes. Colchicine has been effective in lowering the d-dimer through it’s effect on improving inflammatory cascades.  Although the exact mechanism of colchicine is not fully understood, its anti-inflammatory effect for pericarditis appears to be related to its ability to inhibit microtubule self-assembly, resulting in decreased leucocyte motility and phagocytosis Colchicine is a nonsteroidal antimitotic drug that blocks metaphase by binding to the ends of microtubules to prevent the elongation of the microtubule polymer. This agent has proven useful in gout and idiopathic recurrent pericarditis. The GRECCO-19 randomized open-label trial in 105 hospitalized patients with COVID-19 found that colchicine was associated with a reduction in D-dimer levels and improved clinical outcome.

NAC (N-acetyl-L-cysteine) – This drug is a well-established expectorant, which is able to reduce the stickiness of sputum, as well as an antioxidant.

Although it’s unable to interfere with the binding of spike proteins to ACE2 receptors, it reduces the oxidation of spike proteins after they enter the cells. As a neutralizing agent, it can reduce the consequences of toxicity after poisoning.

A cell model study published in the journal Circulation Research found that the expression of some normal proteins, such as phospho angiotensin-converting enzyme (pACE2), ACE2 and AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK), decreased in pulmonary artery endothelial cells infected with pseudo-spike proteins, while the expression of the bad protein MDM2 (which promotes tumor formation) increased.

NAC, on the other hand, has a restorative effect on cells. It’s able to restore cells damaged by spike proteins to almost the same state as normal cells.

As there is no direct clinical trial data to confirm the effects on reducing the spike protein toxicity, an instruction under a doctor’s advice must be followed.

Catechin and Curcumin- Catechin, a tea extract, is a natural antioxidant that accounts for about 75-80 percent of the polyphenol content of tea and is one of the sources of the bitterness of tea.

Curcumin, derived from turmeric, is an important component of curry. Curcumin has powerful antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties.

An article published in Scientific Reports – Nature studied these two components and found that curcumin binds to the receptor-binding domain of spike proteins; and catechin binds to amino acids near the receptor-binding domain, thus blocking spike proteins from binding to the ACE2 receptors and blocking spike proteins from entering cells.

These two ingredients can inhibit viral invasion of cells at the body’s first natural immune barrier, guard the cell’s gateways and offset the strength of the virus.

Carpenter’s Herb – Carpenter’s herb (Prunella vulgaris) has long been considered an effective medicine for liver health.

In 2021, a study by Canadian infectious disease researchers was published in the Public Library of Science: General (PLOS ONE). It proved that the water-soluble extract NhPV of the natural plant carpenter’s herb can inhibit the SARS-CoV-2 and block it from infecting cells. Some other herbs, such as pine needles, emodin, neem, and dandelion leaf extract, are also mentioned in the WCH guidelines as having similar effects in relieving the toxicity of spike proteins. Increasingly, scientific studies are finding that there are more herbal ingredients that have inhibitory effects on the SARS-CoV-2 and can repair the damage caused by vaccination. For instance, scientists have selected 25 candidate compounds from the giant knotweed (Reynoutria sachalinensis) and docked them into the binding site of Mpro, the main protease of SARS-CoV-2. They discovered that 11 of these compounds were effective in inhibiting the replication and transcription of the SARS-CoV-2 virus.

Suramin – Suramin is a century-old medicine that was also first used to treat the parasitic worm disease called onchocerciasis. In addition to treating parasitic diseases, it has been proven effective in inhibiting the replication of many viruses, including enterovirus, Zika virus, and Ebola virus.

Most of the data on Suramin are derived from the in vitro studies. In theory, it should work for reducing the spike in protein toxicity. As there is no clinical trial data to confirm the effects on reducing the spike protein toxicity, an instruction under a doctor’s advice must be followed.

Both ivermectin and suramin can interfere with the binding of spike proteins to ACE receptors and relieve the cellular damage caused by spike proteins.

My hopes in publishing this is that someone, somewhere will benefit and reduce their risk for clot, heart attack, stroke and/or death.

A Message to the Unvaccinated

Relentless mental bombing of the citizens of the world and particularly the United States with thought control in the form of propaganda and censorship has been the drive behind the reason so many of my patients have been unvaccinated.   A significant majority in my practice are unvaccinated because the others were mentally conditioned so avoid “quacks” who use “horse de-wormers” as part of their treatment protocol.

Immensely satisfying as it is to help so many people feel better quickly while avoiding hospitalization and death, it has also been very traumatic.  I have listened to hundreds of stories of patients as they relate the events that occurred to them because of their unvaccinated status.   Story after story of job loss, retracted invitations to weddings, seeing newborn grandchildren, baby showers and family reunions, travel restrictions, restrictions from attending concerts, restaurants, movies and even being banned from Christmas with vaccinated family members.   This is only made worse as they have been estranged from church, friends, family and colleagues who disinvited them to holiday gatherings or other work events.

Another source of trauma is the stories from my vaccinated patients who trusted the authorities when they said they are “safe and effective” who honestly tried to do what they were being told is the “right thing” for their community and nation.  The majority of these people have been now been vaccine injured and/or deeply remorseful after they came to discover that the institutions, they trusted has so egregiously lied to them.  I have over 100 in my practice who have suffered blood clots, myocarditis, colitis, fatigue, and neurological damage from their decisions to be vaccinated.  What is even worse, is that many of them have suffered the same discrimination after refusing to accept a 2nd, 3rd, or 4th shot, in light of the 6-18 months of post-COVID syndrome fatigue and myalgia they suffered preventing them from functioning normally in society, some of which are still not back to normal.

A third source of major trauma is the reprimands and reports to medical boards from medical staff, hospital organizations, employer organizations and insurance plans for my use of “off label” treatments of my patients.  The additional threats to my practice and staff made by these groups to which I used to aspire and admire. Traumatic were the hours I had to spend, and still spend today, defending myself and an advocating for my patient’s rights to be completely informed and chose the medical care they wanted.

To the unvaccinated, those of you who were capable of such personality, courage and critical ability, you are undoubtedly the best of humanity. You are everywhere, in all ages, levels of education, states and ideas. You are of a special kind of soul; you are the soldiers that every army of light wants to have in its ranks. You are the parents that every child wants to have and the children that every parent dreams of having. You are beings above the average of your societies, you are the essence of the people who have built all cultures and conquered horizons. These are those who may look normal, but you are the modern day superheroes.

You did what others could not, you were and are the tree that withstood the hurricane of insults, discrimination and social exclusion. And you did it because you thought you were alone, and believed you were the only ones.

Banned from your families’ tables at Christmas, you’ve never seen anything so cruel. You lost your jobs, let your careers sink, had no more money … but you didn’t care. You suffered immeasurable discrimination, denunciation, betrayal and humiliation … but you kept going.

Never before in humanity has there been such a “casting.”  Now we know who are the best on planet Earth. Women, men, old, young, rich, poor, of all races or religions, the unvaccinated, the chosen of the invisible ark, the only ones who managed to resist when everything collapsed.

That’s you, you passed an unimaginable test that many of the toughest Marines, Commandos, Green Berets, astronauts and geniuses could not withstand.

You are made of the stuff of the greatest who ever lived, those heroes born among ordinary men who glow in the dark.

You and I cannot simply hope that this will pass or that someone will save the day.  Do NOT comply.

I am honored to have had the opportunity to meet and know so many who have suffered greatly but endured by sticking to truth, principle and mutual support.  You are indeed, the best of humanity.

How the CDC Spins a Worthless Study to Sell a Vaccine

The CDC just published a study on COVID-19 cases, hospitalizations and death. The table below shows the 13 US Jurisdictions it was taken from between April 4th and July 17th, 2021.

I am now seeing a number of my medical colleagues posting information and telling my patients that they are 10 times more likely to die if they are not vaccinated based on this study. Yet, THAT IS NOT what the study shows.

In this very limited ecological study that DOES NOT take into account MULTIPLE variables linking causality to the absence of a vaccine, it is essential to understand some basic points about those with “COVID related” disease.

  1. 92% of the people in this study were not vaccinated. 8% were vaccinated.
  2. 92% of the people hospitalized were not vaccinated. 8% were vaccinated.
  3. 91% of the people who died were unvaccinated. 9% were vaccinated.

Did you notice that the rate of death is higher if you’re vaccinated?

In this study, just by the simple numbers alone, you are less likely to die if you are unvaccinated with COVID-19 vaccines.

Yet, they had the audacity to state “In 13 U.S. jurisdictions, rates of COVID-19 cases, hospitalizations, and deaths were substantially higher in persons not fully vaccinated compared with those in fully vaccinated persons . . .”

Well, of course the numbers are “substantially higher,” because 92% of the people that entered the study were unvaccinated! 92 is bigger than 8. We learned that in grade school . . . at least some of us did.

Yet, as you can see by the advertisement below, the CDC spins these numbers and claims that if you are vaccinated you reduce your risk of infection, hospitalization and death by 10%.

In their own study they state that six severe limitations in this study exist:

  1. Many of the “unvaccinated” were partially vaccinated
  2. Variable linkage may completely change the incident rate ratio (IRR) for which this whole study was completed.
  3. Ecological studies have never been effective in determining incident rate ratios (IRRs)
  4. Vaccine effectiveness can never be determined based on an ecological study due to such uncontrollable variables.
  5. They don’t really know if the delta variant was >50% of the cases because they didn’t check.
  6. This data only accounts for ~ 25% of the population, so you really can’t generalize the results.

What is the take home message?

This is a trash can study that is being used as propaganda to continue selling a vaccine to unsuspecting population, and the CDC knows it.

If you are a medical professional, and you’re going to try to scare my patients into getting this vaccine by touting big numbers, please read the damn study before you speak.

Vaccine Thoughts

Today my office got a “1 star” review from a person who isn’t even a patient.  She was upset that I do not require my staff to be vaccinated.  So, I thought I would lay it out there so that you and all my followers can understand my thought process on this whole vaccine issue.

I Support the Use of Safe Vaccines

First and foremost, let me state that I am a proponent of vaccines. I have been fully vaccinated with every other vaccine under the sun (I was in the military and we were given EVERYTHING) and was adamant about getting my flu vaccine until 2016 when I had a severe anaphylactic reaction to the influenza vaccine. 

I’m Personally Allergic to the Components of COVID-19 Vaccines and Influenza Vaccines.

Thinking this was just a hypersensitivity issue, I got my yearly flu vaccine in 2017 and my reaction of hives and inflammation were worse.  We concluded that I am allergic to the base in the vaccine polyethylene glycol (PEG) or polysorbate.  In doing a great deal of research trying to find out what it was I was reacting to, I changed my position on the need for the yearly influenza vaccine.  (It causes a 36% increase susceptibility to coronavirus infections.  You can read about that information here.)  

Polysorbate or PEG is a component of all three COVID-19 vaccines, and is a contraindication to getting the COVID-19 vaccines (listed right on the CDC website – as there is NO package insert on any of the vaccines to date), so I have been very leery of getting vaccinated with anything containing these chemicals.

I’ve Already Had COVID-19 Twice

Near the end of March 2020, I had six patients (3 couples) come off of a cruise to the Caribbean, and had symptoms that we thought were Parainfluenza virus, but later turned out to be COVID-19.  2 weeks later, I and the majority of my staff became ill with COVID-19.   I had classic symptoms of COVID-19, however, my symptoms only lasted about 3 days, many of my staff members were sick for 1-2 weeks, and my wife was sick for 3 weeks.  It was about this time that nasal swab testing became available. 

Over the last 18 months, we have treated over 400 positive COVID-19 cases outpatient.  I have an active patient population of about 8,000 patients.  Between myself and my PA, we see about 13,000 patient visits per year, so we are a busy practice.  The average age of my patients is 65 years old and the majority of these patient have insulin resistance and/or diabetes.   My concern was that we have a huge practice susceptible to severe COVID-19 infections.  However, amazingly in the first 12 months of this pandemic we only had 12 hospitalizations for COVID-19 infections and those were the patients who were not following a low carbohydrate or ketogenic diet and were not controlling their blood sugars or insulin levels.

As predicted, and like any coronavirus, yearly resurgence of the infection will re-occur.  We’ve seen about 15 new cases of COVID-19 in the office in the last four weeks which appear to correlate with the Delta Variant being seen in the hospital across the street from my office.  In the last month, we have seen a resurgence of COVID-19 infections, and five of my staff members were out of the office due to positive COVID-19 infections.  Symptoms lasted 3-14 days in my staff.   All of these patients and my staff were treated with my protocol and none have been hospitalized. 

I personally came down with a reoccurrence of the infection and had symptoms of sore throat, headache, sinus pressure, loss of taste & smell, and productive cough resolve within 72 hours following our treatment protocol.  Like the flu with over 600 variants, there are already 160+ variants of the COVID-19 virus around the world.   So, it is to be expected that we will see this yearly, much like we’ve seen the flu.

Because of my position on this particular vaccine and the influenza vaccine, many members of my church (who has heavily supported this vaccine) and the medical community have ostracized me and my family, as I’ve raised concerns and been vocal about this issue. And yet, a recent real world study in Israel of over 800,000 people demonstrates that those with natural immunity to COVID-19 have 13 times greater protection than those that are vaccinated.

I’ve Seen More Adverse Reaction to COVID-19 Vaccine Then Any Other Vaccine

In January, when the vaccine came out, I was interested in using this in our practice, but I had concerns regarding the untested delivery mechanism that this vaccine used and I was concerned that there were no clinical trials established at the time to know what to expect from this vaccine.

About 30-40% of my practice opted to get vaccinated.  And about 30% of my staff opted to get vaccinated as well.

Of great concern to me is that I have started seeing strange long-term vaccine reactions in those patients that got vaccinated:

  • I have three patient that had profound fatigue – literally could not get out of bed for 4-5 months after getting vaccinated.  Two of these patients are still experiencing these symptoms today.
  • I have two patients who had pericarditis/myocarditis from the vaccine (Now a Black Box Warning for these vaccines)
  • I have seven patients with persistent elevated D-Dimer levels 3-6 months after vaccination predisposing them to blood clots and pulmonary emboli.  Two actually had life threatening blood clots in the lungs. (Blood clots is also a Black Box Warning on these vaccines)
  • Four of these seven had colitis that persisted for 6-8 weeks that was unresponsive to antibiotic therapy.
  • And, one of these patients has symptoms of severe fatigue & tachycardia (rapid heart rate) upon standing that has yet to resolve.
  • I have two others that had spontaneous bruising over their lower extremities for 6 weeks associated with severe fatigue.

95% of the people that get vaccinated in my clinical experience seem to have no problem.   5% of patients have profound symptoms of illness as if they had a mild to moderate case of COVID-19 that can last up to 7 days.  

When I have commented about what I am seeing to my colleagues, they roll their eyes at me and blow it off.   And, behind my back, they tell others that I’m just blowing things out of proportion. Yet, the patients I have seen above are real and these symptoms have dramatically affected their lives, their families and their ability to work and provide a living for themselves.

Am I against getting vaccinated?  No, but I want people to clearly understand the risks and benefits of vaccination.  To date, there is still no package insert that is given to those receiving the vaccines, providing any warning, including the Black Box Warnings. And, the patients that have had adverse reactions have told me that they would never have considered getting vaccinated if they knew about the symptoms they were potentially going to experience.

Why the World’s Leaders and Large Businesses Pushing 100% Vaccination Rates?

You’re going to think I am crazy, but I’ve been racking my brain for a reason, trying to understand why we are where we are today.

Now, before you try to commit me to a mental institution, please watch the two videos and make your own conclusions based on what I theorize may be happening. This information actually scares the snot out of me.

Why are the leadership of countries around the world and large businesses pushing for 100% vaccination so rapidly? The only thing I can surmise based on what we are hearing was confirmed in the video below as the Arkansas Governor and his Medical Advisor explain risk factors for pregnancy. The Aransas Medical Advisor actually sets the narrative.

If there are fertility issues that begin to arise, it won’t be blamed on the vaccine, it will be the COVID-19 variant to be blamed. If there is no unvaccinated control group, any side effects of infertility or pregnancy problems can be blamed on the virus itself, which is exactly what the Arkansas Medical Advisor just did last week.

It is important to understand that pregnancy and fertility data on drugs and vaccines are confirmed during the Phase 4 part of clinical trials. The COVID-19 vaccine skipped the Phase 4 due to the Emergency Use Authorization (EUA). If there are problems with fertility or pregnancy, we will not truly know until January of 2022 at the earliest. Auto-immunity problems take up to four years to show up.

So, why would world leadership push this agenda?

Population control and the ability to rapidly control the economy under a global government – and our leaders actually roll played this pandemic and how to solve it in October, 2019.

The “Great Reset” is a long term ideological grab of what’s left of individual freedom and free market economies, and the goal is the imposition of a global dictatorship. Globalists wrap these objectives in pretty sounding words and humanitarian sounding aspirations, but the bottom line of the “Reset” is about an end to liberty as we know it.

I know, I know. It sound like a huge conspiratorial exaggeration. And, I would not have believed it unless I actually watched the video of these people putting all these puzzle pieces together. Unfortunately, this is reality; this is what these people desire, above all else. But, how do they achieve such a goal?

Interestingly enough, the World Economic Forum (WEF) and the Bill And Melinda Gates Foundation described exactly how they planned to do it during a “simulation” they held in October of 2019 called “Event 201”. During the event, they imagined a massive coronavirus pandemic, spread supposedly from animals to humans, which would facilitate the need for pervasive restrictions on individual liberties, national economies as well as the internet and social media.

I’m sure it’s all a coincidence, but the exact same scenario the globalists at the WEF played out during Event 201 happened in the real world only two months later with a virus and a vaccine that were patented by the CDC and Pfizer over 21 years ago.

The virus that causes illness in swine discussed in the Event 201 roll play was patented on January 28, 2000 (https://patents.justia.com/patent/6372224). This is the base SARS-CoV2 molecule. We’ve know about it and had it patented for over 20 years.

On April 14, 2004, full gene sequence of SARS-CoV2 AND the detection method for PCR identification of SARS-CoV2 was patented (https://patents.justia.com/patent/7220852, this includes sub patents 46592703-P, and patent 776521). Two weeks later, on April 28, 2004, the SARS-CoV2 antiviral vaccine patent was filed by Secoya Pharmaceuticals (https://patents.justia.com/patent/7151163), who later became part of the holdings of Pfizer, Crucell (now Janssen) and Johnson & Johnson.

Ask yourself how can the treatment be patented just two weeks after the detection method and virus structure were patented? Then ask yourself a second question, how can a virus be patented that is naturally occurring (it is against the law to patent naturally occurring “Novel” viruses)?

Answer: First, it is physically impossible to come up with a vaccine just days after you identify at measurement tool for the virus. Second, this is NOT a “novel” virus. It’s been on Pfizer’s shelf since 2000.

In 2007, the CDC attempted to patent the same viral sequence and it was denied. The CDC, then, paid to have this patent over-ridden and made private. They essentially paid a bribe to take public patent information and cover it up. This is all public record in the patent office information located above.

You can watch the testimony of Dr. David Martin and the patents he’s analyzed over the last 20 years. All records are publicly available going back to 1999 showing the Novel Coronavirus was well known and not actually “Novel” for two decades. He explains his credentials and provides how this present outbreak was engineered.

Only time will tell, but we will know more in the next 6-12 months as this health fiasco plays out.

Door-to-Door Vaccine Status Visits Unconstitutional and Unethical

The Biden Administration announced plans this week to send agents “door-to-door” in order to “get remaining Americans vaccinated, by ensuring they have the information they need on how both safe and accessible the vaccine is.”

A leaked script from the Lake County Health Department in Illinois tells the door-to-door Community Health Ambassadors to keep track of the addresses and responses from residents in a “Door Knocking Spreadsheet.”

I find the following four observations essential for you and I to understand:

  1. The U.S. Constitution provides no authority for the federal government to be involved in medicine, for example, by recommending, promoting, or mandating treatments.
  2. If the Ambassador knows a person’s vaccination status, the government has already been collecting personal health data and sharing it with agents having nothing to do with the person’s care, a violation of the Fourth Amendment. The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) will not protect you—it allows very broad disclosure to government officials.
  3. States have the lawful authority to regulate the practice of medicine, but the Ambassadors are evidently not under any constraints regarding training, credentialing, documentation, or scope of practice, although they are collecting data and giving medical advice without supervision. Even medical assistants and medical scribes need to meet certain qualifications.
  4. Ambassadors are promoting an experimental product, with no information on risks. COVID-19 vaccines were authorized via the EUA (Emergency Use Authorization), not FDA approved.  Even if a product is FDA-approved, advertisers and medical professionals must divulge risks, such as heart inflammation, paralysis from Guillain-Barré or other causes, miscarriage, or death. Contrast the Ambassador’s script with the disclosures on a television ad for a drug, say one to treat your dog’s heartworm.

It is my opinion and the opinion of other organizations like the AAPS that this door-to-door solicitation violates the ethical principles of protecting confidentiality and informed consent. Health professionals need a patient’s implied consent even to be seen; they may not simply show up uninvited at a stranger’s home.

Vaccine Guidance Got You Confused?

Do you find yourself confused about mixed guidance when it comes to COVID-19 vaccines and safety concerns?  You’re not alone.  Even we, as physicians, struggle to wade through the ever changing guidance, research and new adverse events popping up every day.

Today, the Surgeon General recommended that we as physicians try to calm your concerns about the vaccine and encourage you to get it. While the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) and the Surgeon General are marketing widespread use of the emergency-use vaccines in the U.S. for both old and young alike, many other countries are limiting COVID-19 vaccine use. Health officials around the world are giving varying advice on safety issues as COVID-19 vaccines are given to more people, and more information can be collected.

Below are summaries of some of the concerns as of July 15th, 2021, that have emerged or been raised by medical officials around the world.  I’ve written about many of them.  Hopefully, this summary gives you a good 30,000 foot perspective.

General

Fifty-seven authors from 17 countries have signed an endorsement urging that Covid-19 vaccinations be stopped unless new safety mechanisms are immediately implemented.

The authors include Dr. Peter McCullough, cardiologist and Vice Chief of Medicine at Baylor University Medical Center in Dallas, Texas, who has called for a halt to vaccinating 30-year olds due to “no clinical benefit” and safety concerns.

In the United Kingdom, some scientists analyzed adverse event reports and called upon the Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency to stop the Covid-19 vaccines as “not safe for human use” due to reports of issues with bleeding/clotting, pain, immune system, neurological, loss of sight/hearing/smell/speech, and questions about impact in pregnant women.

A petition of scientists led by Linda Wastila, Professor, Pharmaceutical Health Services Research University of Maryland School of Pharmacy is calling for Covid-19 vaccines to be disapproved.

Guillain-Barre Syndrome Autoimmune Paralysis

As of July 13th, 2021, the FDA issued a warning about Guillain-Barre autoimmune paralysis, in which the immune system attacks the body’s nerves, after immunization with the Johnson and Johnson vaccine. According to reports, the cases have primarily been reported about two weeks after vaccination, mostly in men, and “any aged 50 and older.” The risk of contracting this syndrome is 3-5 times higher, meaning up to 10 out of every 100,000 vaccinated persons are at risk.

Numerous case reports of Guillain-Barre syndrome paralysis after Covid-19 vaccine have prompted scientists to warn that “all physicians” should be “vigilant in recognizing Guillain-Barre syndrome in patients who have received the AstraZeneca vaccine.”  Observations suggest that “this clinically distinct [Guillain-Barre syndrome] variant is more severe than usual and may require mechanical ventilation.”

In the U.K., scientists flagged “bifacial weakness and normal facial sensation in four men between 11 and 22 days after their first doses of the Astra-Zeneca vaccine.” A case has also been reported in a patient who got the Pfizer vaccine. In India, there are reports of seven severe cases of Guillain-Barre syndrome 10 to 14 days after the first dose of AstraZeneca’s vaccine. Six were women, all had facial paralysis, “all progressed to quadriplegia, and six required respiratory support. Patients’ ages ranged from 43 to 70. Four developed other cranial neuropathies, including abducens palsy and trigeminal sensory nerve involvement.”

Guillain-Barre syndrome has been reported after other mRNA vaccinations like Gardasil. The cause is believed to be damage to the immune system. The disorder can be extremely serious and can lead to total paralysis with dependence on artificial respiration. Even those who recover may have serious muscle wasting and may have to slowly teach the body to relearn most every normal task, such as walking.

Statistically, one in 20 cases of Guillain-Barre syndrome is fatal.

Heart Issues

The Food and Drug Administration has added a new warning to Pfizer and Moderna Covid-19 vaccines about risk of heart inflammation.

As of June of 2021, CDC said that more than 1,200 cases of heart inflammation (myocarditis of pericarditis) in young people had been reported after Pfizer and Moderna Covid-19 vaccination.

  • More than half were after the second dose.
  • Most of the injuries are in males under age 30.

The Israeli Ministry of Health announced it’s monitoring for heart inflammation after Pfizer’s vaccine due to reports of problems.

Myocarditis and Other Cardiovascular Complications of the mRNA-Based COVID-19 Vaccines [Pfizer-BioNTech, Moderna] in a number of patients are described in a scientific article:

  • Two patients with clinically suspected myocarditis
  • One patient with stress cardiomyopathy 
  • Two patients with pericarditis 

According to the research: 

  • The two patients with clinically suspected myocarditis were otherwise healthy young men who presented with acute substernal chest pressure and/or dyspnea after receiving the second dose of the vaccine and were found to have diffuse ST elevations on electrocardiogram (ECG), elevated cardiac biomarkers and inflammatory markers, and mildly reduced left ventricular (LV) function on echocardiography. Both patients met the modified Lake Louise Criteria for acute myocarditis by cardiac magnetic resonance imaging. 
  • A case of stress cardiomyopathy occurred in a 60-year-old woman with known coronary artery disease (CAD) and previously normal LV function, who presented with new exertional symptoms, ECG changes, and apical akinesis following the second dose of the vaccine. 
  • The two patients with pericarditis who presented with chest pain, elevated inflammatory markers, and pericardial effusions after receiving the vaccine.

Blood Clots

In late June, the first case of a blood clot disorder called “thrombosis with thrombocytopenia” after an RNA double-dose vaccine was been reported in the Annals of Internal Medicine. The case was that of a 65-year-old man who developed symptoms ten days after his second dose of the Moderna vaccine. Because the blood clot disorder was not previously warned about in the Moderna and Pfizer vaccines, doctors treated the patient with heparin, the very drug that’s not supposed to be used in post-vaccine patients suffering from the disorder because it could actually worsen the condition.

The Johnson and Johnson Covid-19 vaccine was temporarily removed from the market in the U.S. on April 16, 2021 while health officials studied reports of blood clot injuries. Among them was an 18-year old teen named Emma Burkey, who got sick about a week after the Johnson and Johnson Covid-19 vaccine and ended up having three brain surgeries related to blood clots and seizures.

The Johnson and Johnson vaccine was allowed back on the market April 27, 2021 with new warnings about the disorder.

Swedish health officials determined that people under age 65 should not get the Johnson and Johnson vaccine due to reports of blood clots.

An editorial published in the Journal of the American Medical Association recommended women under age 50 avoid the Johnson and Johnson Covid-19 vaccine due to concerns about blood clots. The recommendation discussed 12 case reports of a blood disorder known as cerebral venous sinus thrombosis (CVST) with thrombocytopenia following the Johnson and Johnson vaccine.

The AstraZeneca Covid-19 vaccine (not currently approved in the U.S.) has been linked to a dangerous disorder involving blood clots with low blood platelets. On April 7, 2021, the European Medicines Agency says it made the association after it analyzed 62 cases of cerebral venous sinus thrombosis and 24 cases of splanchnic vein thrombosis reported in the EU drug safety database (EudraVigilance) as of March 22, 2021. Eighteen of these cases of were fatal.

An otherwise healthy South Florida doctor, Gregory Michael, died of a brain hemorrhage 16 days after he got Pfizer’s Covid-19 vaccine. Authorities concluded he died of a blood disorder called “immune thrombocytopenia” (ITP) that can prevent blood from clotting and cause internal bleeding. His wife said a blood test showed the level of his platelets to be at “zero.” She said before the shot, Dr. Michael had “absolutely no medical issues” and no underlying conditions. However, authorities later categorized his death as “natural.”

Dr. Charles Hoffe, a Canadian physician with 28 years of medical practice, was relived from hospital duty and placed on a gag order after sounding the alarm that 62% of the 900 dose of the Moderna Vaccine he gave in his office caused an elevated D-Dimer test, implying microscopic clotting throughout the body.

I’ve personally seen and treated five patients with elevated D-dimer and abnormal blood clotting post COVID-19 vaccination in the last 6 months. These clots have occurred with 4 hours to 2 weeks after vaccination in otherwise healthy patients with no other risk of clotting.

In Spain, the AstraZeneca shot has been restricted in people under age 60 due to reports of blood clots in younger people.

Bulgaria, Iceland and Norway have halted AstraZeneca shots. 

Austria, Italy and Romania banned certain “lots” or batches of the AstraZeneca shots.

Denmark stopped using the AstraZeneca Covid-19 vaccine altogether as well as the Johnson and Johnson vaccine after investigations into blood clots, saying “the benefits of using the COVID-19 vaccine from Johnson & Johnson do not outweigh the risk of causing the possible adverse effect in those who receive the vaccine.”

The Italian government recently restricted AstraZeneca Covid-19 vaccine to adults over age 60 after a teenager who got the shot died from a rare form of blood clotting. Eighteen-year-old Camilla Canepa died after getting vaccinated May 25, 2021. 

Several other European countries have also stopped giving the AstraZeneca Covid-19 vaccine to people below a certain age, usually ranging from 50 to 65. 

Grave’s disease Autoimmune Disorder

Studies in Mexico and Turkey link the autoimmune thyroid disorder Grave’s disease to Covid-19 vaccination in numerous female health care workers, including two who were breastfeeding. Pfizer-BioNTech was the vaccine given in Mexico. A Chinese vaccine was given in Turkey. Read more here.

Frail & Elderly

Health officials in Norway sounded the alarm after 23 patients died shortly after getting the Pfizer Covid-19 vaccine. They advise doctors to use caution in administering the shot to “very frail elderly patients.” 

After investigating 13 of the deaths, the Norwegian authorities concluded that common side effects from so-called “RNA” vaccines may be too much for a frail elderly person to handle, and may contribute to their death. 

“There is a possibility that these common adverse reactions, that are not dangerous in fitter, younger patients and are not unusual with vaccines, may aggravate underlying disease in the elderly,” said Steinar Madsen, medical director of the Norwegian Medicines Agency.

CDC said it is monitoring the impact of the vaccines on already-frail patients such as the chronically ill in nursing homes.

Several clusters of elderly patients in U.S. nursing homes died after Pfizer or Moderna Covid-19 vaccine. In one group, a number of the patients who died tested positive for Covid-19 after vaccination.

Pregnant Women

Several Brazilian states suspended use of AstraZeneca’s Covid-19 vaccine for pregnant women in May 2021 after a pregnant woman died after getting vaccinated. The decisions follow the recommendation of the country’s National Health Surveillance Agency, which recommended “immediate suspension” of the AstraZeneca Covid-19 vaccine for pregnant women after results of vaccine adverse events monitoring in the country.

CDC says that with limited data on impact of Covid-19 vaccine in pregnant women and on their unborn children, the decision on whether to vaccinate while pregnant is an individual decision to be made between a woman and her physician.

Previously-Infected

CDC falsely claimed that studies showed Covid-19 vaccines are effective for those who already had Covid-19. In fact, studies showed the opposite.

Manufacturing Problems

On June 11, the European Union’s drug regulator announced it will not use batches of the Johnson & Johnson COVID-19 vaccine that were made at a Baltimore, Maryland-based plant around the time that cross-contamination manufacturing problems were reported at the facility.

Anonymous sources claimed that up to 60 million doses of the Johnson and Johnson vaccine had to be thrown out. But the FDA issued a news release saying that two batches from the Baltimore plant were safe to use. The FDA said “several other batches are not suitable for use, but additional batches are still under review.”

Lack of Immunity

Israel announced that about half of the adults infected with Covid-19 during its outbreak in the June 2021 time period were fully vaccinated. The fully-vaccinated individuals had gotten Pfizer’s shots.

According to Epoch Times, in June 2021 nearly 4,000 fully vaccinated people in Massachusetts tested positive for Covid-19. On April 30, “the CDC reported that some 10,626 breakthrough cases were reported in 46 states and territories.” Breakthrough cases are where fully vaccinated people still end up infected with Covid-19.

Scientists hoped that Covid-19 vaccines would be effective in variants of Covid-19, which are mutations that occur naturally with viruses and were always expected with Covid-19. However, the vaccine effectiveness against variants may be limited. CDC and vaccine makers are studying the medical landscape to find out more. Other states, such as Maine, are noting Covid-19 deaths occurring in fully vaccinated people.

Findings From First COVID-19 Vaccine Autopsy

The first post-mortem case autopsy after vaccination has been published in the medical journals.  An autopsy was completed on an 86 year old male after his first SARS-CoV-2 vaccination.  It demonstrates some significant and worrisome findings.

In this particular case, the first dose of vaccine stimulated immunogenicity (a cascade of immune response) but no immunity.  Spike protein (S1) antigen-binding showed significant levels for immunoglobulin (Ig) G through multiple organs of the body, but it did not stimulate nucleocapsid IgG/IgM antibodies.

What is concerning is that the mRNA from the vaccine which should remain in the region of the injection site was found in almost every organ of the body. When this occurs spike proteins will also be found in almost every organ of the body.

Figure 1. Synopsis of the relevant histological findings and the results of molecular mapping is presented. The histomorphology is obtained by standard hematoxylin and eosin reaction, except for the myocardium on the right side (Congo red staining). The magnification is shown by bars. Note that in the lungs, we also observed colonies of cocci (arrow) in granulocytic areas. In addition, the results of molecular mapping are given as evaluated cycle threshold values of the real-time polymerase chain reaction for SARS-CoV-2. Note that only in the olfactory bulb and the liver SARS-CoV-2 could not be detected.

This research implies that a significantly higher number of vaccinated people will be forming spike proteins that will bind the ACE2 receptors everywhere in the body. mRNA from the vaccine is supposed to stay in or around the injection site. When mRNA is found in every organ, it implies that spike proteins have significant potential to be present in every organ. It is the spike proteins that do the damage, cause infertility, and lead to antibody dependent enhancement (ADE) upon re-exposure to the infection.

These findings are worrisome because it implies there is a much higher probability of ADE and a much higher incidence of side effects from spike proteins like infertility.  ADE allows for amplification of the cytokine cascade on subsequent COVID-19 exposures causing re-exposure to COVID-19 and it’s variants to be magnitudes more dramatic.  If this is not just a rare isolated case, this has the potential to be globally destructive.

Because of these and other significant findings, I am still recommending that my patients consider vaccination only after fully understanding their individual risk and the potential for future problems.

Israeli Ministry of Health Files Public Warning on COVID Vaccine

Rates of mycarditis/pericarditis in Israel is usually around 1/50,000. Since the onset of vaccination the rate of myocarditis/pericarditis increased to 1/5000.

https://www.ahajournals.org/doi/10.1161/CIRCIMAGING.120.010897. Arrows in figure C reflect fluid and inflammation around the pericardial sac

The Ministry of Health in Israel just filed this statement with the press:
“There is some probability for a possible link between the second vaccine dose and the onset of myocarditis among young men aged 16 to 30. This link was found to be stronger among the younger age group, 16 to 19, compared to other age groups. This link became weaker the older the vaccinated individual is. In most cases myocarditis took the form of mild illness that passed within a few days.
The recommendation to vaccinate teenagers aged 12-15 shall be discussed in the forum of the Pandemic Containment Task-Force and submitted to the approval of the Ministry of Health’s Director General. We shall issue a public update once a decision has been made.”
But, You Can Still Get Free Beer, Free Krispy Kreams and Free Pot If You Get Vaccinated, Right?!!
VAERS and CDC both report INCREASE IN MYOCARDITIS AND PERICARDITIS (up to 25 times greater than normal rates) in young men who received COVID-19 vaccination, a life threatening inflammation of the heart wall or the tissue surrounding the heart.
This has been seen in Israeli young men who have already had mass vaccination in that country. (The report concluded that around 1 in 5,000 men who receive the vaccine may experience this side effect, known as myocarditis).
And, to date, this is largely being ignored by employers and schools.  I just saw two patients today who were threatened with termination of their employment if they were not vaccinated immediately.  And, the CDC is STILL recommending vaccination of young adults. Until severe questions of medial risk regarding these issues is resolved, this is medically reckless and immoral.
More than double the number of deaths (5160 deaths) in the last 6 months due to vaccination have occurred compared to deaths from vaccines in the last five years – 1997 to 2013 (2149 deaths in US in all vaccines combined).
Yet, Ol’ Joe claimed in February, and then again just two weeks ago, that these vaccines “are safe, they are safe.”  Pfizer showed that symptoms of myocarditis was higher in their clinical studies in young adults in their early testing, and yet they’ve still pushed this vaccine.  And two weeks ago, the CDC ignored these findings when they released their statement that the vaccine is safe for youth 12 years and older.  If what we are seeing in this group of young men is real, these statements will be the most reckless health recommendation ever to be spoken by a siting American president.
Transparency is the foundation of medical ethics.  First, COVID-19 is NOT a threat to young children or young adults. Forcing college students and employees to get the vaccine “or else” is a violation of civil liberties in the most egregious way.
Today on their own website, the CDC reports myocarditis and pericarditis are risk factors with these vaccines:
“Since April 2021, there have been increased reports to the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS) of cases of inflammation of the heart—called myocarditis and pericarditis—happening after mRNA COVID-19 vaccination (Pfizer-BioNTech and Moderna) in the United States.”
The reports show that most of these cases have been mild and occur within a week of the second dose with both Pfizer and Moderna vaccines. As of today, most employers and colleges refuse to give any COVID vaccine exemptions to their employees or students.
The only way this unethical behavior and totalitarianism stops is if we, the people, demand a change.  You and I must be willing to walk into the arena, whatever it may be—a new relationship, an important meeting, the boss’s office, the school board meeting or a difficult family conversation—with courage and willingness to engage. Rather than sitting on the sidelines and hurling judgment and advice, you and I must dare to show up and let ourselves be seen. Change will take vulnerability. It will require daring greatly.  I will require you to make a decision and then take a stand.

Should I Get A Flu Shot?

Before you answer that question let me ask you a question.  Did you know that the influenza viral strain has multiple sub-types? The Influenza A viral strain that has 198 different sub-types and influenza B has just as many, meaning there are at least 400+ different strains of Influenza. Oh, did I tell you that we have recently identified Influenza C & D sub-types as well? Yes, this means that there are over 600+ sub-types of influenza.

Herd Immunity

You might be able to immunize the herd if the average age of those in the herd lived for 200 years. Anyone telling you getting your flu shot improves herd immunity doesn’t understand virology. Herd immunity goes out the window with influenza and with most mRNA viruses like coronaviruses.

In order to vaccinate the population against influenza 33%-44% of the population must have immunity to all viral types in a given year.   With COVID-19, the estimate is 60-75% must be immunized to all 170+ known strains of coronavirus.

You may have antibodies to one of those flu strains, yet what about the other 400-600 strains you might be exposed to next year? Just because you have antibodies, doesn’t mean you are immune. This applies to Influenza and it applies to coronaviruses.

The influenza vaccine (which only covers 4-5 of the 600+ influenza strains possible). Which one do you pick this year? Hence the CDC cartoon.

Does the Influenza Vaccine Reduce Risk of Hospitalizations?

Over 20 years, the percentage of seniors getting flu shots increased sharply from 15% to 65%. It stands to reason that flu deaths among the elderly should have taken a dramatic dip due to increased flu vaccination each year. And at over 40% of the population being immunized, herd immunity should have been achieved.

Instead, flu deaths among the elderly continued to climb. It was hard to believe, so researchers at the National Institutes of Health set out to do a study adjusting for all kinds of factors that could be masking the true benefits of the shots. But no matter how they crunched the numbers, they got the same disappointing result: flu shots had not reduced deaths among the elderly. It’s not what health officials hoped to find.

The two studies below demonstrate that yearly flu vaccine for those over age 65 does nothing to decrease influenza related death. These studies funded by the government in 2005 and 2006 were suppressed. Your doctor and I never heard anything about them. Yet, the CDC still says “Get your flu shot.”

mRNA Vaccines Increase Risk of Other Viruses

Last, the influenza vaccine actually increases your susceptibility to coronavirus infection. Yes, you read that correctly. A recent study by Wolff demonstrates that influenza vaccinations are not benign.  Influenza vaccine increases risk of Coronaviruses by 36%, non-influenza viruses generally by 15%, and human metapneumovirus by 59%.

And, a second study trying to confirm the findings above reveals increased risk of parainfluenza virus in adults (increased by 4.6% of vaccinated adults and only 2.6% of unvaccinated adults.

So, what is the answer? Waiting for the perfect vaccine or an antibody test is not the answer. Anyone telling you this is selling something.

Please be aware, I am NOT an anti-vaccine physician.  Vaccines are life saving.  But, it is essential that you and I understand the pros and cons of each and every vaccine we use or recommend.  I am a huge proponent of most childhood vaccines, pneumonia vaccines and the new shingles vaccine, because they work. The science confirms their effectiveness.  The science does not confirm the effectiveness of the influenza vaccines.

What should I  do?

We now know that ketogenic diets improve resistance to viral infections by enhancing T-Cell immunity. This is specifically important for influenza and coronaviruses.

The answer is protect yourself. Wash your hands, stay home when you are sick, clean and sterilize frequently touched surfaces. Keep yourself healthy and understand how to reverse hyper-insulinemia (the one factor that makes this and coronaviruses significantly more severe.)

So, wash your hands and pass the bacon!

Oh, and take your vitamins.
