A major new autopsy report has found that three people who died unexpectedly at home with no pre-existing disease shortly after Covid vaccination were likely killed by the vaccine. A further two deaths were found to be possibly due to the vaccine.
The report, published in Clinical Research in Cardiology, the official journal of the German Cardiac Society, detailed autopsies carried out at Heidelberg University Hospital in 2021. Led by Thomas Longerich and Peter Schirmacher, it found that in five deaths that occurred within a week of the first or second dose of vaccination with Pfizer or Moderna, inflammation of the heart tissue due to an autoimmune response triggered by the vaccine had likely or possibly caused the death.
In total the report looked at 35 autopsies carried out at the University of Heidelberg in people who died within 20 days of Covid vaccination, of which 10 were deemed on examination to be due to a pre-existing illness and not the vaccine. For the remaining 20, the report did not rule out the vaccine as a cause of death, which Dr. Schirmacher has confirmed to me is intentional as the autopsy results were inconclusive. Almost all of the remaining cases were of a cardiovascular cause, as indicated in the table below from the supplementary materials, where 21 of the 30 deaths are attributed to a cardiovascular cause. One of these is attributed to blood clots (VITT) from AstraZeneca vaccination (the report was looking specifically at post-vaccine myocarditis deaths), leaving 20 from other cardiovascular causes.
For the five deaths in the main report attributed as likely or possibly due to the vaccines, the authors state:
All cases lacked significant coronary heart disease, acute or chronic manifestations of ischaemic heart disease, manifestations of cardiomyopathy or other signs of a pre-existing, clinically relevant heart disease.
This indicates that the authors limited themselves to deaths where there was no “pre-existing, clinically relevant heart disease”, making the report very conservative in which deaths it was willing to pin on the vaccines.
Dr. Schirmacher told me:
We included only cases, in which the constellation was unequivocally clear and no other cause of death was demonstrable despite all efforts. We cannot rule out vaccine effects in the other cases, but here we had an alternative potential cause of death (e.g. myocardial infarction, pulmonary embolism). If there is severe ischemic cardiomyopathy it is almost impossible to rule out myocarditis effects or definitively rule in inflammatory alterations as due to vaccination. These cases were not included.
We did not aim to include or find every case but the characteristics of definitive, unequivocal cases beyond any doubt. Only by this way you can establish the typical characteristics; otherwise less strict criteria may lead to ‘contamination’ of the collective; it is absolutely plausible that by these criteria we may have missed further cases but the intention of our study was never quantitative or extrapolation and there are numerous positive and negative bias. But we wanted to establish the fact not the size.
It is of course very possible that the vaccines also cause death where there is an underlying cardiovascular condition, and indeed, that it is more likely to do so. Thus these five deaths are the minimum from these autopsy cases in which the vaccines are involved – those in which there is no other plausible explanation.
It is worth noting here that initially in 2021, when the autopsies were first carried out, Dr. Schirmacher stated his team had concluded 30-40% of the deaths were due to the vaccines. These earlier estimates may give us a better indication of how many of the deaths the authors really think are attributable to the vaccines, when they are unconstrained by highly conservative assumptions (and looking at causes besides myocarditis). Note that these percentages are based on a selection of deaths that occurred shortly after vaccination, not a random sample of all deaths, so the authors rightly warn that no estimation of individual risk can be made from them.
Did the autopsies find spike protein from the vaccines present in the heart tissue? The samples from the five vaccine-attributed deaths were tested for infectious agents including SARS-CoV-2 (in one instance revealing “low viral copy numbers” of a herpes virus, which the authors deemed insufficient to explain the inflammation). However, no tests were done specifically for the virus spike protein or nucleocapsid protein, such as have been used successfully in other autopsies to aid attribution to the vaccine, so unfortunately this evidence was unavailable for these autopsies.
The autopsies in the report also only cover doses 1 and 2, not any booster doses, and only deaths within 20 days of vaccination, so the report doesn’t address directly the question of what’s been causing the elevated heart deaths since the booster rollouts from autumn 2021 or whether the vaccines can trigger cardiovascular death weeks or months later. (Other autopsies have confirmed that the spike protein can persist in the body for weeks or months after vaccination and trigger a fatal autoimmune attack on the heart.)
What the report does do, however, is establish that people who die suddenly in the days immediately following vaccination may well have died from a vaccine-related autoimmune attack on the heart. It also confirms how deadly even mild vaccine-induced myocarditis can be – and thus why studies like the one from Thailand, finding cardiovascular adverse effects in around a third of teenagers (29.2%) following Pfizer vaccination and subclinical heart inflammation in one in 43 (2.3%), and the study from Switzerland finding at least 2.8% with subclinical myocarditis and elevated troponin levels (indicating heart injury) across all vaccinated people, are so worrying.
The authors of the new study diplomatically write that the “reported incidence” of myocarditis after vaccination is “low” and the risks of hospitalisation and death associated with COVID-19 are “stated to be greater than the recorded risk associated with COVID-19 vaccination” – notably declining to commit themselves to the official propositions that they dutifully repeat.
The fact that those who die suddenly after vaccination may have died from the hidden effects of the Covid vaccine on their heart is thus now firmly established in the medical literature. The big remaining question is how often it occurs.

It is truly remarkable how keen governments worldwide are to ignore this.
I adore your sarcasm
I personally know 3 people who ended up in hospital having heart ops after the vaccine in 2021; it may be that they had underlying weaknesses which were exploited by the vaccine and that was a pattern I saw throughout 2021. Never before, never since.
To add to the heart cases I personally knew:
1 complete kidney failure (for 3 weeks until the effects of the jab wore off) stated by the hospital to have been induced by the jab
1 liver failure ( underlying condition which had been well managed until the jab)
1 pericarditis after the first jab, unbelievably he was advised he could have the second one, which he did and which predictably made him worse
1 man with copd who had spent 2 years completely isolated apart from getting the jabs, died from an undiagnosed issue with his heart (not copd as was expected) following 3 spells in hospital after the booster
1 x healthy 32 year old with a stroke
The thing is, most of these would be described as underlying conditions if they had died. So, as indicated in the article, the numbers dying from the jab must be much higher than this study suggests.
Yet people still refuse to believe it.
It’s not that they refuse to believe it. They do not want to believe it, for rather understandable reasons. To me it is quite clear that an ever-increasing number of people are indeed believing it and getting very concerned.
Fair point, and you are right, there is much more scepticism about vaccines generally now.
That may well be true, and if it is, we could be looking at further “side effects” caused by it – via other illnesses in the long term.
A friend whose husband has now had two serious heart attacks post jabs has finally accepted that there may, at the very least, be a connection and they won’t be having any more.
I have posted this before, a friend of mine died from a massive heart attack less than 24 hours after being “boosted.” He was at home and had no prior heart problems, working and fit. The coroner refused an autopsy on the grounds that his death was one of those things but definitely nothing to do with the “vaccine.”
Yeah right.
Not fully stabbinated until day 21…so based on the ‘rules’ the quacksines were not responsible, says the cult and religion of the vaxxgod.
They are paid agents of Pfzier the quacks, and they are fully indoctrinated into the mythical powers of Promethean Pfizer.
I’m not sure why the case of VITT is in the inconclusive 20. Surely, doctors have decided the death of this 38 year old man was caused by the AZ injection by definition?
As documented and predicted by Burkhardt, Bhakdi et al many months ago.
The autopsy data, together with the information that Moderna patented, in 2016, a 19 nucleotide portion of the SARS-CoV-2 genome encompassing the furin cleavage site, can lead to no other plausible explanation:
We are looking at pre-meditated murder.
https://www.frontiersin.org/articles/10.3389/fviro.2022.834808/full
Pre-medicated murder?
It’s murder alright. Mass murder.
I’m also keen to know how often the fibrinogen growths are found in sudden deaths, and are these curious structures ever found in unvaccinated cadavers.
I suppose we’re talking of a completely different finding; the report under discussion is concerned with myocarditis and heart damage whereas the growths may not necessarily be linked.
At least someone is investigating at last, and the reports are being published; thank God.
Maybe it’s just a matter of time until these things are analysed.
Next door neighbour found dead from a heart attack. Just heard a neighbour a few doors down (didn’t know him – a nearer neighbour told me) also died from a heart attack. Husband of a local acquaintance also died from a heart attack. This was all in the last six months.
A friend was in hospital for two weeks with myocarditis after being boosted. I understand he still gets tired walking up stairs and so on. This is the only one that is definitely the vaxx. He accepts that it must be, although as far as I know he just considers himself unlucky.
It pains me that all of these people will be forgotten victims, washed away in time, like tears in rain.
So the Covid “vaccines” don’t work.
They’re also killing people.
Masks don’t work.
Lockdowns don’t work.
Who knew?
One day perhaps we’ll also learn that humans aren’t causing climate change, nor is carbon dioxide bad for the planet and without it all life on earth would cease to exist. But hey, what do I know?
In other news, water is wet and the sun rises in the east.
Now that must be bad for humans!
We’re looking at the tip of an iceberg, as one of the commentators in JC’s YouTube entry said.
Is it possible that the political position about the balance between risk and benefit will move much? If it does, there could be almighty backlash against medicine as a whole, unless they make it clear that they are not monolithic, but actually real people that screw it up from time to time.
Isn’t it amazing that there are so many anecdotal cases of heart attacks, strokes, myocarditis and sudden aggressive cancers these days.
Funnily enough I don’t recall hearing about anything similar pre 2021 (when the mass jabbing started).
The interval between a cancer diagnosis and death seems notably truncated of late.
I can understand how a late diagnosis might explain this in part, especially for your average Joe or Jane who can’t readily get a GP appointment.
But for celebs like Kirstie Alley, surely this is unlikely?
And this morning I heard another new (to me) advert warning amateur athletes like half- marathon runners about heart attacks.
TPTB know about this alright; it makes their refusal to acknowledge or compensate even worse.
While I agree with your general points, I don’t think Kirstie Alley would have been injected: –

I think we might have lost a fellow traveller.
The report does say in the final paragraph “Finally, we cannot provide a definitive functional proof or a direct causal link between vaccination and myocarditis.” Campbell does not mention this. Daily Sceptic rightly says that what matters is how often these deaths occur, and this paper offers no information about that. Nor does the paper or Campbell suggest that these deaths justify calling for the vaccine rollout to be terminated.
I’m profoundly sceptical of the Covid vaccine. Because I didn’t want to be divorced or lose students (I’m a language teacher) I’ve been vaccinated, twice, very reluctantly, but some time before my scepticism fully developed. If I could go back in time and avoid those jabs, I now wouldn’t hesitate to do so. But I don’t get it – the first line of the conclusion of the study referenced above is:
“Finally, we cannot provide a definitive functional proof or a direct causal link between vaccination and myocarditis.”
I’m certain that the vaccines confer virtually no protection, while causing great damage; but how does this conclusion support this article’s confident assertion that “Those Who Died Suddenly Were Likely Killed by the Covid Vaccine”?
I can never seem to find my way back to my posts, and any replies to them. If someone out there can help me with this, I’d be grateful if you use my email: illman.clive@gmail.com
Thanks.
