One of the many important and untold stories of the COVID-19 response involves, not surprisingly, the German company BioNTech: the unsung hero or villain, depending on one’s perspective, of the response. As at least my readers will know, BioNTech is the actual developer, owner and legal manufacturer of what is more commonly and misleadingly known as the ‘Pfizer’ COVID-19 vaccine. It is also the authorisation holder for almost all markets, including the EU, the U.K. and the U.S. But circa 2020, the legal manufacturer of the drug had a big problem: having never previously brought any product to market, it did not have any manufacturing facilities.
BioNTech had only ever produced batches for small-scale clinical trials. This helps to explain the company’s need for Pfizer’s help and, above all, infrastructure. But BioNTech was not about to let Pfizer steal its thunder. The company wanted to be not only the legal manufacturer but, at least in the EU, also a physical manufacturer in its own right of the mRNA serving as the active drug substance. Pfizer could do ‘fill and finish’ at its production facilities in Belgium.
But to this end, BioNTech needed a factory.
The problem was solved by its purchase from Novartis of the somewhat infamous Behringwerke or ‘Behring Works’ in Marburg. Not only was the facility the site of the eponymous Marburg virus outbreak in 1967, but during the Second World War, as a subsidiary of the IG Farben chemical trust, it had been used to manufacture experimental vaccines for testing on concentration camp inmates at Buchenwald. This human experimentation was at the very heart of the Nuremberg ‘Doctors’ Trial’, as can be seen here.
On September 15th 2020, the German Government announced that it was providing BioNTech a €375 million grant to support its COVID-19 vaccine project. Just two days later, the company announced that it would be purchasing the Behring Works to manufacture the mRNA for its COVID-19 vaccine “pending regulatory authorisation or approval”.
On April 1st 2021, the great day had arrived and then-Health Minister Jens Spahn would be (virtually) on hand, connecting remotely from Berlin, to celebrate the inauguration of mRNA-production at BioNTech’s new facility: the refitted Behring Works in Marburg. As touched upon in my last article, Spahn expressed the hope that BioNTech’s success would be just the starting point for turning Germany as a whole into a global “mRNA hub”.
“Invented in Germany, made in Germany… That makes us proud,” Spahn said with an awkwardly cheeky grin, and he marvelled at the incredible speed with which BioNTech was able to bring production on-line at the facility. “Beginning of October…”, he said, before quickly correcting himself, “Beginning of November: acquisition of the plant – handing-over of the keys, so to say – and then end of March, actual start of production….”
But whether beginning of October or beginning of November 2020, the described timeline raises the same troubling question: How was BioNTech able to complete acquisition of the facility so early? The BioNTech-Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine was only authorised for use by the European Medicines Agency (EMA) on December 21st (10 days after first receiving emergency authorisation from the American FDA).
How did BioNTech or its state sponsor, the German Government, know in advance that the drug would be approved?
Could this be still further proof of the veracity of the words of Klaus Cichutek, the former President of the German medicines agency, the PEI, when he cockily told a German pharma industry association that “We are the EMA”?

I still can’t work out if the decision to mass vaccinate with barely tested experimental gene therapies was a result of:
Mass formation psychosis,
Big Pharma corruption,
or
Depopulation agenda
among health officials and their mainstream media lackeys.
Regrettably they’re not mutually exclusive.
All of the above plus knock out the standing army in time for the UN one to take over unopposed.
The decision to mass vaccinate US fighting forces–knowing the risks from the little testing done beforehand–indicates purposeful military decimation (correct use of term here, I believe) and crippling of the US. Did any other country require its military members to take the experimental jabs?
British Army told the soldiers to have the jab. Soldiers are trained to follow orders…. Very few refused from my sources who have links to the military.
Interesting latest ‘stack on excess mortality from Igor;
”In the Covid-vaccine skeptic world, many opponents of Covid vaccines suggest that vaccines cause deaths via various direct mechanisms. (“spike protein slowly kills heart” or some such)
They may partly be right; however, such a straightforward explanation does not explain great month-to-month variations in death rates.
I claimed that excess mortality associated with Covid vaccines is mediated via transmissible illnesses such as Covid-19 or the flu, causing more deaths in Covid-vaccinated or boosted people.”

Sadly an awful lot more people are going to die before their time or be injured by these wretched injections. Among them commercial airline pilots who seem to dropping like flies. There’s lots of info out there on this but here’s one Substack to check out below.. just awful tragedies..

Here’s another.. Dr Ana’s Newsletter.. she’s been homing in on the nano-technology side of these jabs, and the attempts to cover this up. She makes for very interesting/frightening reading indeed. What’s been going on is very real indeed. Mind blowing technology is being put into use after decades of planning..

We have to hope the likes of Senators Johnson, Rand Paul and Robert Kennedy Jnr win their campaign. And the American people can sue the guilty people for £billions.
Our own useless, cowardly, Ostrich-MPs won’t even listen to Andrew Bridgen.
