Vaccine Propaganda

Let’s call it what it is – propaganda.  Over the last few months, as I drive down the freeway, I continue to see Arizona Department of Transportation signs and other media advertising the number of people vaccinated, and how we are supposedly “saving our country by getting a shot.”  This morning at 7 am the message board on the 303 freeway loop stated:
“5.4 MILLION DOSES AND COUNTING. GET VACCINATED”
Now colleges & universities are considering mandating vaccination before allowing students to return to class.  Travel companies and international airlines have actually already mandated vaccination. I am actually horrified that our state officials pay for and  support this type of propaganda. The scientific evidence to support this type of health propaganda does not exist.  I’ve scoured the medical literature for it and it just doesn’t exist.
In fact, my patients are showing up in my office after being told by their cardiologists and gastroenterologists that they need their COVID vaccine.  I can guarantee that many of these specialists have never read the vaccine literature and have no idea of the side effect profile and/or risks of this or any other vaccine.
Let me start by stating up front that I am a strong proponent of vaccines.  We have many tried and true, fully vetted vaccines to prevent many diseases.  The science states that if you’ve already had the virus, you have two to four years of immunity. We know the vaccine doesn’t prevent the virus, it just decreases likelihood of severity for 4-6 months.  In fact, I’ve already had four patients in my office get a full blown COVID-19 infection post vaccination.  However, this and seven other essential points are being blatantly ignored by governments, churches, college campuses and other organizations encouraging, propagandizing and even “requiring” vaccination.
  1. Young adults are a healthy and immunologically competent and vibrant group that is at “extraordinary low risk for COVID-19 morbidity and mortality.”
  2. Even though the FDA granted Emergency Use Authorization (EUA) for three COVID-19 vaccines, they are not FDA approved to treat, cure or prevent any disease at this time.
  3. The COVID-19 vaccines on the market in the U.S., produced by Moderna, Pfizer, and Johnson & Johnson, have been associated with serious side effects. These adverse reactions result in absence from school and work, hospital visits, and even loss of life. More than 2,300 deaths have been reported to the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS) as of April 20, 2021.
  4. Students who have recovered from COVID-19 already likely have protective immunity, and vaccination of these groups significantly increases risk of autoimmune reactions.
  5. Protections expressed by the Nuremberg Code require individuals “to be able to exercise free power of choice, without the intervention of any element of force.”
  6. Informed consent is the standard for all medical interventions. The FDA fact sheet for the healthcare provider reads: “The recipient or their caregiver has the option to accept or refuse [the] vaccine.”
  7. College-age women may be at unique risk for adverse events following administration of the experimental COVID vaccinations currently available. According to the CDC, all cases of life-threatening blood clots subsequent to receiving the J&J vaccine have so far occurred in younger women. In addition, “women are reporting having irregular menstrual cycles after getting the coronavirus vaccine,” and 95 miscarriages have been reported to VAERS following COVID vaccination as of April 24, 2021.

This is the position of the Association of American Physicians and Surgeons and it is my position.  This push for vaccination when these questions still remain may appear prudent in an emergency situation to those who have been selected and elected to lead us, however, after five months of availability to evaluate this approach it is actually coercive and blatantly ignores the science that supports these points.  This course of action is, in my opinion, an egregious lack of insight, or if done knowingly is actually malevolent.

As a family physician, whose job revolves around vaccination of children and adults, and one who is given the mission of providing appropriate preventative medical care to his community, I cannot in good conscience support the propaganda behind this vaccine.

    I totally appreciate you taking a stand and not being silent. As a patient of yours that means alot to me. Yes, I recently had my appointment to schedule my five year colonoscopy and the Dr asked if I had the vaccine yet and then why I did not? He was clearly angry that I was not vaccinated. I don’t feel it’s his business anyway, but he tried to intimidate me with his attitude.

    Thanks for speaking the truth Dr Nally!

    And now, those of us who have chosen not to be vaccinated will have to continue to wear masks. It sounds like “the Scarlett Letter”. I’ll be darned if I’m gonna bow to that kind of tyranny!

    I am 69 and have not, and will not, get vaccinated until there is more proof that it’s actually a good thing. Thank you for your encouraging posts.

    I am so glad there are MDs like you and I hope this message is spread. I believe in vaccinations and my 3 children have received all required. I however, do not think this particular ones benefits outweigh the risk for children. We need more time and research before administering to children and young adults. The EUA was for the vulnerable citizens- the seniors specifically. I think this wide spread usage is taking advantage of the EUA as a power grab and shouldn’t be allowed. My 17 yr old is being faced with having to get the jab or not attend college in the fall. We are devastated at this situation. A virus with 99.97 % survival/recovery rate should not have mandated vax. I just can’t believe this is where we are now… Praying something changes soon.

  5. I am wondering if you can address why it is that no one is talking about the people who have already had Covid and recovered. Why do they need the vaccine and why is it be insisted that they need it? What about our kids!?

    Thank you Dr. Nally so very much ! I look forward weekly to hearing your updates on all this inconsistent mess . I am very concerned about what is going on and truly appreciate your wisdom. We have a daughter staring at a local university in August and this is very bothersome about the possibility of “ mandating” these “vaccines”. She will not get it.
    Also, what are your thoughts on this shedding that I sm hearing more and more about ? It this legit?

    Thsnk you again-
    Jen F.

    I remember, in my youth, someone, a friend I think, maybe more, saying he’s this way or is this type of person…, something. For some reason, I didn’t like that. Someone, maybe more, were saying this is who I am: defining me in a box of their thinking. I also wondered why they even did that? I think some people say things like that because it’s what the box says to do.
    Many year later, after doing many things outside the box, we saw the movie: “The Matrix.” They were saying what I had understood so many years before.
    You are not defined by the Corona Virus, by masks, by a vaccine, or by a card that says you’ve taken the vaccine. You are not defined by Life insurance, by a huge retirement package, by health care, by the material possessions you have, even by the people you know. Popularity, money, cars…, nothing. Yes, we work and take care of our families, helping friends and neighbors, and taking out the time to help someone in trouble.
    No one, unless they allow it, is defined by the media, social media, politics, propaganda, peer pressure, or anything or anyone else.
    Someone once said that when we die, we can’t take anything with us except our character. Another said, to thine own self be true. Honesty. Integrity.
