Vaccine Safety Update

by Will Jones
6 April 2022 4:15 PM

This is the 30th of the round-ups of Covid vaccine safety reports and news compiled by a group of medical doctors who are monitoring developments but prefer to remain anonymous in the current climate (find the 29th one here). By no means is this part of an effort to generate alarm about the vaccines or dissuade anyone from getting inoculated. It should be read in conjunction with the Daily Sceptic‘s other posts on vaccines, which include both encouraging and not so encouraging developments. At the Daily Sceptic we report all the news about the vaccines whether positive or negative and give no one advice about whether they should or should not take them. Unlike with lockdowns, we are neither pro-vaccine nor anti-vaccine; we see our job as reporting the facts, not advocating for or against a particular policy. The vaccine technology is novel and the vaccines have not yet fully completed their trials, which is why they’re in use under temporary and not full market authorisation. This was done on account of the emergency situation and the trial data was largely encouraging on both efficacy and safety. For a summary of that data, see this preamble to the Government’s page on the Yellow Card reporting system. (Dr. Tess Lawrie in June wrote an open letter to Dr. June Raine, head of the MHRA, arguing that: “The MHRA now has more than enough evidence on the Yellow Card system to declare the COVID-19 vaccines unsafe for use in humans,” a claim that has been ‘fact checked’ here.) Boris Johnson said in October that being double vaccinated “doesn’t protect you against catching the disease, and it doesn’t protect you against passing it on”. We publish information and opinion to inform public debate and help readers reach their own conclusions about what is best for them, based on the available data.

  • The first batch of documents from the Pfizer vaccine trial released by the U.S. FDA on March 1st includes a nine-page list of 1,291 different types of adverse event reported post-authorisation.
  • An additional Pfizer trial document released separately shows immunosuppression in the first seven days following vaccination and evidence supporting natural immunity.
  • A study suggests the Pfizer vaccine can damage brain cells and the immune system.
  • U.S. army doctor Pete Chambers gave an informed consent briefing to 3,000 soldiers, setting out in full the risks and benefits of the vaccine, following which 99.8% declined to get vaccinated. Dr. Chambers was subsequently dismissed.
  • Data from Rambam hospital in Haifa, Israel reveal a stillbirth, miscarriage and abortion (SBMA) rate of 6% among women who never received a COVID-19 vaccine, compared to 8% among women who were.
  • Case report in journal Brain Hemorrhages of intracerebral bleeding following vaccination.
  • A study shows that more than two-thirds of adolescents with COVID-19 vaccine-related myopericarditis had persistent heart abnormalities months after their initial diagnosis.
  • The Miami Open tennis tournament saw 15 withdrawals or retirements. While all players were required to be vaccinated to enter the U.S., it’s not clear how many of the withdrawals were vaccine related.
  • Eudravigilance – the European version of the Yellow Card Reporting system – as of April 3rd has reported 4,039,333 reactions from 1,670,823 reports of which 1,862,987 were deemed as serious. 42,782 fatal reactions were reported with an approximate actual number of deaths being 14,438. This is due to a 2.96 reporting rate in fatalities across multiple reactions. Of these reports, 30,764 injuries have been recorded in the 0-17 years age group. 
  • VAERS – the American version of the Yellow Card reporting system – as of March 25th reports a total of 1,205,755 reports of adverse events following Covid vaccines, including 26,396 deaths and 214,521 serious injuries.
  • DAEN Australia – the equivalent of the Yellow Card reporting system – has logged (up to March 22nd) 118,035 reports of adverse events, including 809 deaths.
  • Children (Under 18) Adverse Events U.K. – up to March 23rd, the MHRA reports a total of 3,674 adverse event reports, comprising 3,366 Pfizer, 262 AstraZeneca, 24 Moderna and 22 unspecified from 3,314,700 children vaccinated. This includes 70 reported cases with Pfizer of myocarditis/pericarditis, suggesting a current reported risk of 14 cases per million first doses and 12 per million second doses for this age group.
  • Booster Doses – 47,418 adverse events have been reported across all vaccines up to March 23rd from 38,701,747 people vaccinated, suggesting a reporting rate of one adverse event per 816 doses.

Summary of Adverse Events in the U.K.

According to an updated report, as of March 23rd the MHRA Yellow Card reporting system has recorded a total of 1,475,298 events based on 450,567 reports. The total number of fatalities reported is 2,075.

  • Pfizer (26.2 million first doses, 23.7 million second doses, 29.6 million third doses) now has one Yellow Card in 156 people vaccinated. Deaths: one in 35,501 people vaccinated (738).
  • AstraZeneca (24.9 million first doses, 24.2 million second doses, 55,500 third doses) has one Yellow Card in 102 people vaccinated. Deaths: one in 19,904 people vaccinated (1,251).
  • Moderna (1.6 million first doses, 1.5 million second doses, 9.0 million third doses) has one Yellow Card in 44 people vaccinated. Deaths: one in 37,209 people vaccinated (43).

Overall, one in every 117 people vaccinated (0.85%) have experienced a Yellow Card adverse event. The MHRA has previously estimated that the Yellow Card reporting rate may be approximately 10% of actual figures. Note that sometimes in Yellow Card reporting, the numbers of adverse events (including fatalities) will be lower than the previous week. The Yellow Card system is a passive reporting system, so in theory this should not happen as all reports should be cumulative. However, the MHRA says it analyses the data prior to publication, with deaths and pregnancy conditions being notably investigated. It does not state criteria by which reports would be removed and to date has not clarified why these data vary. It is therefore unclear how many reported adverse events have been removed from the reports since reporting began in February 2021.

  • Blood Disorders = 27,362
  • Pulmonary Embolism & Deep Vein Thrombosis = 4,096
  • Anaphylaxis = 1,627
  • Acute Cardiac = 27,496
  • Pericarditis/Myocarditis = 2,073
  • Eye Disorders = 24,428
  • Blindness = 520
  • Deafness = 779
  • Infections = 34,794
  • BCG Scar Reactivation = 157
  • Spontaneous Abortions = 787 miscarriages
  • Nervous System Disorders = 283,469
  • Strokes and CNS haemorrhages = 3,193
  • Guillain-Barré Syndrome = 615
  • Myelitis Transverse = 161
  • Vomiting = 18,690
  • Seizures = 3,437
  • Paralysis = 1,503
  • Gastrointestinal Disorders = 134,029
  • Headaches & Migraines = 139,128
  • Immune System Disorders = 6,366
  • Bell’s Palsy = 1,375
  • Skin Disorders = 100,383
  • Confusion & Disorientation = 4,679
  • Respiratory Disorders = 55,713
  • Renal & Urinary Disorders = 4,470
  • Psychiatric Disorders = 31,027
  • Reproductive/Breast Disorders = 57,192
  • Metabolic Disorders = 12,426
  • Vascular Disorders = 22,700

Considering the allocation of levels – deep, middle, and shallow – are the medical, & tech (incorporating engineering) organisations really shallow? Or are they actually deep in many cases? After all, most of them really supersede democracy altogether. Most people just live with them with no thought at all, in the main. In this context, the “deep state” is global, in effect, with the USA being down the pyramid a bit.

“unconscionable forced shots that have not only killed and wounded many but demoralised and subjugated the population”

One bit of good news regarding that is the ‘uptake’ in all vaccines is down, making it harder when they next take orders from the WHO & IHR fascism.

What a surprise. Maybe they are not so good at marketing as some supposed. But yes, it is possible that the tactic used will have a negative effect.

It’s too late.
Even if Trump wins, he’ll be lucky to make it to the January 2025 inauguration. Even as a President he’ll be “minded” by reps of all three levels, who have infiltrated the fake Republican Party.

 It is not the politicians elected by the voters as such but the permanent state structures that exist on three levels: shallow, middle and deep.”

Why do you think the Dems kept FRK off the ballot, that’s why he joined Trump, other times they put him on a ballot when it would benefit the Dems where he would have to instruct them to remove his name. Ah democracy!

“On nationalism, I had never imagined the conditions in which that impulse would favour rather than oppose liberty…”

Nationalism like racism and far right, have been defined by the Left to convey their desired meaning to support their arguments.

Nationalism the way they mean it is more properly defined as Statism, in the model of Mussolini, and Hitler’s National Socialism – therefore tyranny and dictatorship and must be stamped out. Ironic since the Left is itself a Statist, dictatorial machine.

A Nation is built by monocultural society – shared values, morals, beliefs, manners, laws – bound by the culture, heritage, history, wider family, solidarity, unity, patriotism. Nationalism seeks to preserve this. It’s about the people. That is why it is a threat to Statism and the Left who want to get rid of National identity, destroy the concept of self-government and replace it with a global technocratic government.

He’s so got to win. The alternative is unthinkable, and I don’t even live in the States. I honestly cannot wait to see that maniacal, fake-ass smile wiped off that medicated muppet’s face, as well as all the rest of the Demtard globalist sh*tmunchers reactions before their tiny, toxic brains collectively implode as they try and fail to compute what just happened, with zero fraud or bribery required in order to get there. *Touch wood I’ve not just jinxed things!*
You don’t have to like him, but even with all his faults he’s the only real chance Americans have;

”We’re right on the cusp of – yes, it’s true and not just a hyperbolic cliché – the most consequential election of our time. What can you expect on November 5th – and then beyond?
First, the election itself. As things stand now, I personally do not see how Donald Trump can lose – even factoring in what will surely be widespread attempts at voter fraud including an unknown quantity of illegal aliens who have been registered to vote by the Democrats (which is precisely the reason, of course, that they threw open the southern border for four years). The Democrats know they’re going to lose, which is why activists have already started burning ballot boxes in Washington state and Oregon (and you can expect more ballot boxes in other states to begin meeting the same fate). I don’t see how the Democrats can even cheat their way to victory this time. We all know – and the Democrats especially are painfully aware – that Kamala Harris and Tim Walz are a disastrous duo whom no one likes and they have run a terrible campaign that is floundering more and more each day.

Conversely, we also all know – and the Democrats especially are painfully aware – that Trump has been a rock star on the campaign trail and that YUGE crowds have come out for him everywhere. Kamala could only boost her crowds with a bait-and-switch, promising Beyoncé concerts that never materialized, for example. Kamala couldn’t even score a victory with a solo CNN town hall; CNN commentators afterward couldn’t cover for her disastrous performance. Her entire campaign has been based on lies and fear-mongering about fascism and democracy because she’s incapable of talking policy or differentiating herself from the decrepit, deposed Joe Biden.

If Kamala “wins,” her presidency will be the most radical in American history. It’s easy and tempting to dismiss her as an epically incompetent dim bulb, because that’s what she is. It’s easy and tempting to mock her pompous word salads, her nervous cackling, her Meryl Streep-level range of accents when addressing different demographics, but remember that she is also ruthless, ambitious, and cruel, and she enjoys destroying lives through political power. With her in the White House we can expect four years of vindictiveness and retribution against political opponents, in addition to the most radical imaginable policies.”

I actually find him very likeable. He may be a bit narcissistic, but still only scores around a 3 on the Barack Obama scale of 10.

It is one of the most balanced and considered articles that I have so far encountered on this matter. The Brownstone website which the writer established has many intelligent articles, often including British orientated opinion and information. The link given by Mogwai below is worth reading in its entirety.

“It has become clear, in addition, that the longing for a system of fiscal financing via tariffs rather than income taxes is on the table, as in the 19th century. That would certainly amount to an improvement over the current system.”

Really? Yet it was removal of tariffs and introduction of free trade that saw a huge surge in the British Economy and at that time there was no income tax so it wasn’t either/or.

Do people promoting tariffs really nto understand they are a tax on consumers? Paid by the importer and passed on and compounded through the supply chain, they increase consumer prices = less goods bought = less manufacture needed = fewer jobs needed = unemployment = reduction in economic activity = everyone made poorer.

Domestic manufacturing has not been lost, it has changed. We manufacture as much as we did 50 years ago just different things. Fewer people are engaged in it which is down to increased labour productivity which means higher wages.

The real problem is as the article states, a shift from productive to non-productive activity mostly in the public sector, which means more and more capital, labour and other resources are not available for development of the private sector hampered by the deadweight of taxation to pay for the non-producers. And now floods of non-productive, impoverished immigrants.

Tariffs are not the answer.

To be fair, when there was a huge surge in the British Economy from free trade, we didn’t have a great deal of international competition, certainly not what we have now. We have seen various foreign governments try to subsidise their industry by undercutting and product dumping, in which case some protectionism would be an obvious answer. If we all played by the rules then I agree, no tariffs.

My instincts are towards free trade and it has shown itself to give great benefits. But what has come to bother me about it is that it creates a dependence on other countries. Steel, food, energy, semiconductors. Being dependent on other countries might be OK if they are equally dependent on you, or you can trust them not to shaft you or gang up on you because you step out of line. I don’t know what the answer is.

I was thinking about the whole situation in the US the other day and musing about the tremendous divisions between the left and right, and whether or not the answer might just be to have a partition of the country into two. Do we have two sides of the argument that are so incompatible that division and political independence is realistically the only solution..?

Such a situation would absolutely never happen, of course. Not just because of the obvious practical and constitutional hurdles, but also because the juxtaposition would expose the comparative failure of the Dem state very starkly indeed.

I felt like that during “covid”. Just give us a small country somewhere and leave us the hell alone, youse lot can all go bonkers together, good luck.

The US was founded with the idea that people would be left to live their lives as they best thought, within the law which was at the time confined to a tiny proportion of what it is today. But there’s no more land left to do it again – no land anyone would want to live on, anyway.

He is more beautiful than ever now in terms of his actual beauty and the beauty of his presence. The man is in his seventies and he has the energy of ten young bulls and apparently he subsists on cheeseburgers alone. And perhaps he has gained wisdom from his years in the wilderness He isn’t really a demagogue apart from a few stylistic touches. He never plays the hard man really. His tone is usually ironic or self-mocking. More of a demigod than demagogue. He is a mystery to himself in terms of how his mind works. The demons in charge like predictability and algorithmic thinking and so perhaps a practitioner of chaos magic can slow down the decline.

Today is a rebirth. It may only mean a fifty year reprieve from a precipitous decline but now that we have him I think that we have learned how to love him. And we know that feeding him love and adoration brings out the best in him. He offers himself up as the slain deity and the sacrificial lamb. Our last hope.

They’ve already said that they won’t let him take power even if he wins and that is the beauty of it because it means a rumpus will ensue. He will win and if they to block him they will make a grave mistake. He is no more of a humanitarian than they are but at least it will throw the Anglo-Americans off kilter for the next couple of months which is exactly where you want them.

I hope we’re now going to experience a battle between democratic, nationalistic capitalism in the USA the anti-democratic, bureaucratic corporatism being implemented in Europe.

Sadly, we’re trapped on the wrong side.
