Australia’s drug regulator hid vaccine deaths from the public, concerned that “disclosure could undermine public confidence”, it has been revealed.
The hidden deaths include two children, seven and nine years old, who both suffered fatal cardiac arrests which the Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA) assessed as causally linked to Covid vaccination,
The revelations come in documents obtained under Freedom of Information (FOI) request by Dr. Melissa McCann. Dr McCann shared the shocking revelation in her address at the Covid Vaccine Conference, hosted by Clive Palmer’s United Australia Party over the weekend in Brisbane, Melbourne and Sydney. The event featured leading ICU physician Dr. Pierre Kory, cardiologist and epidemiologist Dr. Peter McCullough, and McCullough’s collaborator, author John Leake.
Addressing sold-out crowds, Dr. McCann shared the extraordinary lengths she had to go to to extract causality assessment documents relating to the TGA’s investigation of reported deaths after Covid vaccination, which were obtained under FOI request in a process that took six months. Dr McCann lodged the request after seeing an unexpectedly high number of patients coming through her clinic experiencing adverse events after immunisation (AEFIs). She also noticed a high number of serious AEFI reports in the in the DAEN database, including the reported death of a 14 year-old in October 2021.
In her original FOI request, Dr. McCann requested causality assessments for all of the reported deaths in the DAEN database. This request was denied due to the large scope, and in negotiation with the TGA, Dr. McCann agreed to revise down the request to the 11 documents that were eventually handed over, of which 10 related to DAEN death reports.
When the documents were finally provided to Dr. McCann in July 2022, she was dismayed to find that there were multiple reports that the TGA had assessed as causally linked to Covid vaccination, but, with the exception of one death, had not been reported in the TGA’s regular Safety Reports.
Following is a list of deaths that the TGA’s own reports assessed as causally linked to Covid vaccination:
21 year-old female
Case 729139, Document 1
Moderna booster. Fatal AEFIs, including myocarditis, cardiac arrest, renal impairment, femoral artery embolism, spinal cord infarction.
Assessment outcome: “Causal”
* Initially determined as “unclassifiable”. VSIG (FOI 4049 Doc 5) updated the assessment outcome to “causal”.
9 year-old
Case 724023, Document 2
Pfizer vaccination. Fatal AEFI, cardiac arrest.
Assessment outcome: “Causality assessment outcome”
24 year-old female
Case 718277, Document 3
Pfizer vaccination. Fatal AEFI, cardiac arrest.
Assessment outcome: “Causality”
7 year-old male
Case 719838, Document 5
Pfizer vaccination. Fatal AEFI, cardiac arrest.
Assessment outcome: “Causality”
21 year-old male
Case 644148, Document 6
Pfizer vaccination. Fatal AEFI.
Assessment outcome: “? causality”
Of the above five listed deaths, only the first (21 year old female, case 729139) has been published in the TGA Safety Reports, having been added on September 13th 2022. The reported deaths are listed in DAEN, but the causality assessment is not visible to the public.
Australians have been falsely and misleadingly advised by the TGA and official health representatives that out of 973 reported deaths, only 14 have been assessed as being causally linked to the Covid vaccines (13 following Astra Zeneca, one following Moderna).
The causality assessment reports released under FOI prove this statement to be a lie.

The November 2022 TGA Safety Report states that, “There have been no deaths in children or adolescents determined to be linked to COVID-19 vaccination.” But the assessment reports indicating the causal role of the Pfizer vaccine in the cases of the seven and nine year-old children were released to Dr. McCann in July 2022.
The causality assessment reports prove this statement also to be a lie.

On reading the causality assessments provided to her under the FOI, Dr. McCann felt both shocked and confused. “Why has this information not been provided to health professionals and the public who are making consent decisions? Children are continuing to be vaccinated and this is something that parents deserve to be able to weigh up,” Dr. McCann told Dystopian Down Under.
It gets worse. Dr. McCann was surprised to find that documents 1-10 out of a total 11 documents from the FOI had not been uploaded to the TGA’s public disclosure log, per regular protocol. She emailed the TGA to query why documents 1-10 had been withheld from the disclosure log, and was advised, in a communication on August 24th 2022:
The decision maker for this request decided not to publish documents 1-10 pursuant to section 11c(1)(a) of the FOI Act as they contain sensitive personal information about deceased persons. As you would appreciate, consultation with the families of the deceased was not considered appropriate, and, as such, consultation was not undertaken with those families. Further, the decision maker determined that disclosure of the documents could undermine public confidence and reduce the willingness of the public to report adverse events to the TGA. (emphasis added)
The TGA seems to have assumed that families of the deceased will not want to hear from them. On the contrary, Deb, mother of 21 year-old Natalie (case 729139), told Jab Injuries Australia that the lack of contact from the TGA was, “disgraceful treatment of a grieving mother who could have made a meaningful contribution to their investigations”. Deb says that she has never been contacted by the TGA, and only discovered the causality assessment outcome of her daughter’s death via the TGA’s Safety Report (September 23rd 2022), which she accessed online.

As for the TGA’s assertion that disclosure of the documents could undermine public confidence, one could very well argue the opposite case. Perceived lack of transparency drives public distrust. The last thing the TGA needs is public suspicion that it is burying vaccine deaths. Full transparency is the only way to create and maintain trust in public health. Dr. McCann made this argument in a further communication, but the TGA’s decision against uploading documents 1-10 to the public disclosure log was final.
During this time, Dr. McCann, in partnership with other concerned doctors, repeatedly wrote to the Health Ministers and Adjunct Professor John Skerritt of the TGA to advise them of concerns about vaccine safety, and to call for immediate suspension of the vaccine rollout until an urgent review of adverse event reports could be undertaken.
These correspondences were met alternately with silence, obfuscation or blanket assurances that the TGA was closely monitoring safety, and that the vaccines were safe and effective.

The TGA consistently reports that only 14 of the 973 reported deaths have been causally linked to vaccination. But the contents of FOI 3727 raise questions:
- How can the TGA’s statement be true? The TGA’s own causality assessments indicate that there are at least four more deaths that TGA has causally linked to vaccination (two adults, two children) which remain unaccounted for in the official count of 14.
- How many of the 959 deaths that the TGA implies are not causally linked to vaccination have even been investigated? Are 900 reports ‘in progress’? How many have been determined as ‘not causally linked’? Dr. McCann asked the TGA to state the number of causality assessment reports that had been completed, but her request was denied.
Dr. McCann is concerned about the implications for public health and safety: “If everyone is working on the basis that all of these deaths have been investigated and have been determined as not causally linked, well we can’t be sure that that’s the case.”
For now, Dr. McCann is turning her efforts to a Covid Vaccine Class Action, which is expected to file within the month. The Class Action has received over 350 expressions of interest, and the number is still growing.
“Hopefully this class action will force some transparency so that there will be more clarity around how adverse events are reviewed, and how many are likely to be linked to the vaccines,” says Dr McCann.
Yesterday, Federal MP Russell Broadbent added further pressure to the TGA, referring to Dr. McCann’s FOI 3727 in Parliament: “Why has the TGA not responded to doctors who raised these issues with you six months ago, including drawing your attention to those case reports? This information is extremely alarming and demands an immediate response from the TGA.”
Sydney lawyer Tony Nikolic, of AFL Solicitors, has represented parents of children who are disputing the necessity of having their child vaccinated against Covid, and is now seeing cases related to Covid vaccine injury in children as well. Mr. Nikolic told Dystopian Down Under:
In circumstances where child deaths and serious long-term injuries are listed on the TGA DAEN database relating to new and unsatisfactorily tested vaccine technologies, there should be no other response than a complete suspension of injections until independent lawyers and medical professionals conduct a thorough investigation, which should consider any civil wrongs, crimes or other wrongdoing associated to the roll out of injections across Australia.
Australian parents who have concerns that their child has been vaccine injured or is subject to coercion to take a Covid vaccine are invited to contact Mr. Nikolic.
The TGA has been contacted for comment.

My son was telling me that a lot of terraced houses near him in London would need planning permission for a heat pump as they are too close together to be allowed a heat pump under current permitted developments, this article explains the situation;
https://www.homebuilding.co.uk/news/why-terraced-homeowners-may-need-planning-permission-for-heat-pumps
In addition where heat pumps have been installed in terraced housing it has lead to environmental noise complaints.
There may be some electrical people on here who know more about this than I do? but I gather that installing a heat pump requires the electrician to get permission from the electric supplier? As heat pumps use a compressor motor, even though they may not have a very high consumption once in use, they have a high start up current draw such that some planned heat pump installations have been refused because the local electric supply infrastructure cannot handle the demands of heat pumps.
I can only say Steve, that the above tale reminds me of Spike Milligan’s superb book: ‘Adolf Hitler. My Part in His Downfall.’ In the prelude to his Army call up, he speaks to an uncle who fought in WW1, asking him, “What was it like?” His uncle replies, “Like? Like son? It was like one big fuck up.”
It might depend on the rating of the proposed pump, but if it’s around 10Kw (some seem to be), it could fall foul of the same issue with home charge EV battery chargers. That is, because they are more or less constant loads at around 43A, the BS 7671 won’t allow them to be counted as a “diverse load” (like other domestic heaters, cookers etc). The matter under discussion could be as to whether air source pumps behave like storage heaters, or more like EV chargers. I’d have thought that if air pumps tend to run continuously over several hours, they would refuse to treat them as diverse loads. I’m guessing, so we’ll see.
So they have to tot them all together, and for many groups of houses, it would exceed the rating of the distribution cable, local transformer etc. That would certainly be the case in my street – I know the cable’s rating, as it was only installed a couple of years ago to replace some older kit that had failed.
Thus its possible that the District Network Operator (DNO) would say no, unless they are prepared to upgrade their system (digging up the roads, installing larger cables, then higher capacity transformers etc). Someone has to pay for that, of course.
Now imagine the headache for the DNO if each of those terraces also want to run a 7.5kw ev charge point as well.
The focus has been on electricity generation and none of the idiots in charge have considered the huge grid upgrade and upgrade to power distribution in homes and buildings.
Worst case scenario is everyone’s heat pump starting at the same time after one of the power cuts that a recent electricity supplier leaflet told me to expect because of adverse weather events.
Now imagine they all have an EV charging point on the go as well.
Won’t they be powering the grid via their smart meters?
Managing it via “smart” meter equipment, maybe. Read the official bumf here: https://www.gov.uk/guidance/regulations-electric-vehicle-smart-charge-points They’re not advertising it, but it could be that customers might notice that they can’t actually charge their car when they want to, because someone else wants to (perhaps at a higher price) so as limit the total load. Regulations like that could be exploited to minimise installing upgraded distribution kit, e.g.
She’s made the fundamental error of not being friends with MTF.
And for those stupid enough to fall for the heat pump con what next? Oh, your exterior walls must be double insulated with all-weather treated kingspan to a depth of three foot and foam backed exterior doors. And while we are at it triple glazed windows.
On and on it will go until we are broke and broken.
Windows? Certainly not! Viewscreens showing a rural idyll (no cows, obvs) with government approved information channels.
Some older houses insulation in the walls causes more damp. Walls need to breathe.
I know. My first house was solid walls. British Gas called to offer advice on extra insulation. The young girl’s face was a picture when I explained that cavity wall insulation was not an option.
I had the same when I was called up by my energy company to say that “my smart meter was ready for me”. ——-They were rather bemused when I told them that it isn’t my smart meter, it is theirs.
Your heat pump will keep you warm ————Except as usual the small print says “”It will keep you warm if you wear 5 pullovers and stuff every crevice in your house with foam”
“So you must also spend a fortune on sealing your house from all possible draughts. “
That is only useful for half the year. The other half a house needs to get rid of heat.
I am passing by two old houses every day which have been modernised and thoroughly insulated during the last 2 years.
They have mold all over their facades now. Inside, it’s even worse.
The advise of a friend who is in the profession is: a) don’t (over)insulate your old house b) do nothing if you can on the heating system side, just wait. Because if one must eventually go for a heat pump in a few years, the pumps then will be able to achieve 70-80 degrees and a moderately sensible and affordable heating can be achieved by just creating more heating surfaces in the house in conjunction with them.
Of course, nothing beats the current setup with efficient gas boilers.
The laws of thermodynamics says that there is a hard limit to how much heat you can efficiently extract with an air source heat pump. No technological improvement will ever change that.
“… the pumps then will be able to achieve 70-80 degrees…”
So the laws of physics will be changed?
Is there no-one in government who is literate in science, engineering or even plumbing?
Even if they were, they don’t care
No, the number of MPs from STEM backgrounds is tiny. Most are humanities graduates. And it shows!
The state has no business dictating how people heat their homes
The state has no business, full stop!!
Or if they smoke a fag!
If we had proper health insurance, a smoker could simply pay higher premiums. That way, the state keeps out of it!
Everything within the State, nothing outside the State, nothing against the State. Sig B Mussolini.
That is absolutely the way we are going and have already gone. It has been done gradually so most people have not noticed. We need a “great reset” – just not the one the WEF want…
Rather than muckraking about renewables, electric cars and heat pumps, how about some constructive stories about potential new sites for fracking, coal mines and North Sea oil and natural gas?
SHHHHHHH —-Or you will be dragged off to the climate change gulag, and you will never be heard off again. ——-If you think this is me making a little joke then think again. Reducing emissions of CO2 is enshrined in law. Breaking the can and will lead to imprisonment and fines. ——Green=Tyranny on a massive scale.
You would think that the Energy Security and Net Zero Minister would know something about heat pumps. After all him and his government want to coerce everyone into getting one and be rid of the 21 million gas boilers in this country. But alas he KNOWS NOTHING about them at all. The now former Minister Grant Schapps was asked on GB News “Are heat pumps any good” ——-He replied “I don’t know, but I am having one fitted in my house so I will soon find out”——-How totally absurd. He wants to force a heat pump on everyone without knowing or even caring if they are any good. It turns out they are heap of .s..t, but all that matters to these imbeciles is implementing pretend to save the planet mandates from the One World Government people at the UN.
Hydrogen? Why does this keep coming up as planet-saviour.
The atmospheric gas… about 2%, but variable across the globe… is the ‘greenhouse gas’ which keeps the Earth warm, unlike Mars with 93% C02 and no water vapour.
The Climatrons in fact say it is the indirect effect of CO2 attenuation of outgoing long wavelength I/R, which causes an increase in heat content of this water vapour, which in turn causes more water to evaporate and atmospheric content to increase. It is this feed back, or climate sensitivity/radiative forcing, that will lead to run away global warming and boiling planet.
Now. Hydrogen burnt in air ‘only’ produces… water vapour the very gas which mostly directly regulates the heat budget.
So to replace a gas that doesn’t actually directly regulate the heat budget, they favour one that does.
The madness of the climate change hoax.
£7,500 in grant money. 25 years from now, ten times that much in compensation money for people who fitted crap machinery to their homes.
The illustration at the top of this article apparently shows an air source heat pump, but it could just as well show an air conditioning unit. As I understand it an air source heat pump makes the inside of a house hotter. Meanwhile an air conditioning unit makes the inside of a house cooler. Thus air conditioning units are causing exterior warming, if the Second Law of Thermodynamics is still true. So vast numbers of such units as one finds in large glass faced office blocks, and more widely in hot countries on every house, must be contributing to urban warming. So to help achieve net zero they should be banned. This would have course reduce the electricity grid load, allowing people to use electricity to charge their explosive cars. Would someone please put me out of my misery and explain why I am wrong?
