Covid Vaccine Science Catching Up With ‘Conspiracy Theorists’

by Dr Raphael Lataster
7 October 2024 3:31 PM

Two new peer-reviewed medical journal articles indicate that the science is starting to catch up with the ‘conspiracy theorists’ and ‘anti-vaxxers’ such as myself, also known as people who rationally asked questions of novel products that were rushed out the door to help stem a pandemic virus that was far less deadly than all other causes, including cardiovascular disease, cancer and even tobacco use (and note that COVID-19 deaths tend to be inflated).

Publishing in the Polish Annals of Medicine, Michael Thoene conducts a limited literature review on the reporting of COVID-19 vaccine severe adverse events in scientific journals, finding:

From 2020 to 2024, the literature has gone from claiming there are absolutely no SAEs [serious adverse events] from mRNA based vaccines (2020-2021) to an acknowledgment of a significant number of various SAEs (2023-2024); including but not limited to neurological complications, myocarditis, pericarditis and thrombosis. … The early scientific literature was biased so as not to report SAEs due to social and political concerns and overwhelming corporate greed. Only in the last year have scientists been able to publish articles that acknowledge a high number of SAEs linked to mRNA based vaccines. This should act as a warning that science should be completely objective when evaluating health risks, but can often be influenced by social and economic considerations.

Proving once again that Eastern Europeans are based (the Hungarians stand up to the EU on immigration, and the Bulgarians published my little study on the correlation between COVID-19 vaccination and European excess mortality), the Polish journal kindly accepted my brief response, entitled ‘Scientific views around mRNA based covid vaccines are changing, but to what end?’ In it, I praise the journal and author for this important paper, and note that this is only the tip of the iceberg. There is so much more in the published science that most people are unaware of, such as:

  • Thacker, on “issues such as data falsification and patient unblinding concerning Pfizer’s vaccine trial”.
  • Fraiman et al., on the “excess risk of serious adverse events of special interest with the mRNA vaccines”.
  • Benn et al., on there being “no statistically significant decrease in COVID-19 deaths in the mRNA vaccine clinical trials, while there was an increase (also not statistically significant) in total deaths”.
  • The JECP4 articles by Peter Doshi’s team and myself on “counting window issues (such as counting window delays, counting window biases, and counting window misclassifications), likely leading to exaggerated effectiveness and safety estimates” in the clinical trials and major observational studies, with one of the major problems being “when COVID-19 infections are being overlooked in the ‘partially vaccinated,’ and in some cases were even ascribed to unvaccinated groups”. Note that Mead et al. discussed some similar issues and yet was astonishingly retracted.
  • Faksova et al., which Thoene barely mentioned, and which demonstrated that the vaccines are associated with several concerning adverse effects, despite employing a counting window endpoint of only 42 days following vaccination.
  • Raethke et al., “which noted a rate of serious adverse drug reactions of approximately one per 400 people”, which I note compares “very unfavourably with U.K. Government estimates on the numbers needed to vaccinate in young and healthy people to prevent a severe COVID-19 hospitalisation being in the hundreds of thousands”.
  • Mostert et al., on the “mysterious problem of excess mortality post-pandemic, which they hint could be related to the COVID-19 vaccines”, and my aforementioned Bulgarian Medicine article demonstrating that there are indeed correlations between COVID-19 vaccination and European excess deaths.
  • Of course, my ‘favourite’ topic, COVID-19 vaccine negative effectiveness, where “the vaccines increase the chance of COVID-19 infection, and even COVID-19 death, a ‘benefit’ which is of course a poor trade-off for the risk of (other) adverse effects”. This “led to some discussion in major medical journals such as the BMJ [and also AJGP], with the most common excuse for this phenomenon being that there must be some confounding variable at play”, an “excuse that somehow does not apply before vaccine effectiveness crosses the x-axis [goes negative], indicating a clear double standard (one of many) in how the vaccines are evaluated”.
  • Fürst et al. (those Eastern Europeans again!), on evidence “that a healthy vaccinee bias is at play”, which “would further imply that the effectiveness of the COVID-19 vaccines is being exaggerated, beyond the effects of counting window issues and other data manipulations, even when declining to zero and beyond”.
  • The “substantive critiques appearing in influential medical journals of major observational studies purporting the benefits of the vaccines (with more on the way)”. These include my BMJ rapid response on the WHO’s jab study and the little academic debate between myself and a team from Johns Hopkins. Much more coming soon…

Still wondering how I managed to get this published, I end with a stark warning for those who partook in the deadly con:

There is clearly much research on the COVID-19 vaccines, published in the biggest medical journals, which greatly contradicts the mainstream and early (as well as ongoing) claims concerning their safety and effectiveness, and even necessity, for all. There is much more not mentioned in this brief article, and there is no doubt more to come. It seems obvious to me that at least for the young and healthy, COVID-19 vaccines are most certainly not worth the risk, even when considering just a single adverse effect (myocarditis), no matter how rare it is purported to be – serious COVID-19 in the young and healthy is rarer still, and the same is even more true when considering the little to no benefits offered by what increasingly appears to be a feckless vaccine.

There have already been many legal actions, including victories (as with myself), initiated on behalf of the (somehow still alive) unvaccinated who were persecuted over a pharmaceutical product that they clearly did not need, and the vaccinated who have died and otherwise been injured as a result of vaccination. I anticipate that many more lawsuits are on the horizon, involving – amongst others – the vaccine manufacturers; the Government officials that approved, encouraged and even mandated the vaccines; and the many doctors and scientists who effectively betrayed their professions and public trust in encouraging the use of these flawed products based on very limited and even manipulated scientific evidence.

Of course, while the science is starting to catch up, and the lawsuits are continuing apace, we’re still being told by our governments and mainstream media to roll up our sleeves, even those who are as young as six months.

As a UK resident, I was offered the opportunity to have the jab in question, at the same time as an annual ‘flu one a few days ago. I said nothing and trashed the correspondence. After all, with multiple injections, who knows which causes any problems?

Same here – both an NHS letter and a bit later an email. I’m just waiting to see if they will persist, not that it will make any difference. No jabs for me.

Just an email in my case – not exactly a secure mode of communication with anything like that. I didn’t check the identity of the sender, and just ignored it. Didn’t want to rattle their cage too much; after all, I’ve had a couple of worthwhile screen tests done this year, which suggests that the relevant branches of the service are functioning again. One was a biennial bowel cancer screen, and the other a 65th year AAA screen at the local hosp. Both decent results; no fault found, in effect.

I told my GP’s surgery to stop contacting me and they have. I haven’t had any communication from NHS central since I was “invited” to have “my” first jab and I told them to eff off.

Bravo! A sceptic legend.

Herewith an extract from one of the references by the same author which struck a particular chord:

‘My barrister for today gave us all one more reason to not accept the notion that we should just move on.

He is not an anti-vaxxer, nor is he against the COVID jab. He took it himself and appears to think that it was good overall.

Nevertheless, he is representing the family of a young and healthy woman who suddenly died. From a side effect linked to the jab.

He thinks it’s obvious that it’s the jab that killed her, and is fighting for her justice.

To paraphrase Théoden King responding to his enemy’s plea for peace after the Battle of the Hornburg:

‘We shall have peace.

We shall have peace, when you answer for the persecution of the unjabbed, and the citizens stripped of their rights!

We shall have peace, when the lives of those killed by the jabs you compelled them to take are avenged!

When you rot in prison, and your ill-gotten profits are given to those you have wronged, we shall have peace.’

I suppose it’s possible they will throw a few people under the bus, but the idea that a significant number of those responsible for all of this will be punished in this life seems far-fetched to me. Powerful people and institutions across the world were in lockstep, with little dissent, and most of it happened in plain sight.

The Iraq invasion was a scam and a disaster that hundreds of thousands if not millions opposed at the time. It is now an uncontroversial and widely accepted fact that intelligence was deliberately misleading, the invasion was carried out under false pretences and the perpetrators knew it.

And yet Bush and Blair sit all snug, well protected inside the warm embrace of the establishment. They won’t be held to account in their lifetime by any stretch of the imagination.

So to think that the perpetrators of the global COVID jab roll out crime that had the complicity of most of the population will every be punished is exactly zero.

Not only that, they’ll do just like Blair. They’ll double down, emboldened by the fact they got away with it.

It accounted for a not insignificant % of the entire German trade surplus for that and the following year, and enabled the State/City they are domiciled in to pay off all their debt with the windfall of the corporation tax.

Yup, I would say you would struggle to find a single one among the worst offenders whose lucrative career has not continued or gone onto greater heights. Probably the same number as the number of people cancelled, sacked, fined, imprisoned, vilified, coerced into being vaccinated who have received an apology, exoneration, pardon, adequate compensation.

Even though it has been obvious for years that we are right, I wouldn’t hold my breath re lawsuits against the guilty.

The perpetual nightmares of childhood vaccine schedules, mass vaccinations and vaccine mandates will only abate once the immunity from liability is removed, and the (pseudo) science of virology has its day of reckoning with the scientific method.

If Trump wins, RFK Jr will have a proper crack at it.

I doubt he’ll succeed though because the scale of the corruption and the extent of the capture of the system is just too great.

It may peel back the curtains a bit further to the whole rotten edifice and make some more people wake up. That’s as much as I think they’ll manage in the best of cases.

Basically it explains specifically how the mmRNA jab trash part of the innate immune system.

I would have sympathy for you if you took the injection out of timidity but you went further- you saw those who chose not to commit suicide as potential dangers despite evidence to the contrary and the obvious logical point. You even wanted the unvaxxed to be excluded from society and ideally put in camps. And so given that context I have no sympathy. You have dehumanised yourself and the consequences go far deeper than the degradation of physical health.

The truth is starting to trickle out ….. but most of the multi-jabbed sheeple who get their “information” from the MSM and have no critical thinking skills whatsoever are still lining up to take the poison.

And the vast majority will never admit, regardless of the evidence, that they were conned. I have some sympathy for those who were damaged by the first 2 jabs but I have no sympathy whatsoever for any who are now adversely affected.

Question: What testing and approval has the RSV vaccine had? Is it an “emergency use” thing again? There is zero emergency with RSV, the numbers affected severely are tiny. Then there is between 75 and 80 years old offering, is this another population “clearing” activity?

I have just received a letter advising me to get this RSV jab. I have never heard of RSV. Then yesterday I received another letter advising me to get an NHS flu jab and a COVID-19 jab. Normally I would avoid all this but I have to go to my doctor for another condition (if I can get through the 8 o’clock scramble) so I guess that while I am there they will give me all these jabs at the same time.

“Our wonderful NHS” continue to push the Covid vaccine. I’ve had four or five texts and emails “inviting” me to have a booster jab, together with a ‘flu jab. Since my understanding is that the latter is ineffective and since the former is both ineffective and probably dangerous, I continue to ignore all such messages.
