This is the 15th 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 14th 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 has been 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 has now said that the vaccine “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 U.S. CDC has set up a monitoring system for reporting COVID-19 vaccine breakthrough cases – as of October 18th 2021 there have been 41,127 breakthrough cases reported, 10,857 of whom died.
- Dr Scott McLachlan reports an excessive number of healthy babies born to mothers who’ve had the vaccine during pregnancy dying within 48-72 hours of birth.
- The latest U.K. Covid figures by vaccination status, up to week 41 (17th October), report higher cases of Covid per 100,000 people in double-vaccinated than unvaccinated.
- Sweden has suspended the Moderna jab indefinitely after vaccinated patients developed myocarditis, whilst a case of Pfizer vaccine-associated-myocarditis is reported as the cause of death in a 22 year old man in Korea.
- VAERS – the American version of the Yellow Card reporting system – released new data on October 15th bringing the total to 818,044 reports of adverse events following Covid vaccines, including 17,128 deaths and 122,833 serious injuries.
- DAEN Australia – the equivalent of the Yellow Card reporting system – has logged (up to October 10th) 67,063 reports of adverse events, including 589 deaths. Australia has recorded 1,432 Covid deaths to date.
- Children (Under 18) Adverse Events U.K. – up to October 13th, MHRA report a total of 1,297 adverse event reports, comprising 1,056 Pfizer, 233 AstraZeneca, 5 Moderna and 3 unspecified. Myocarditis reports remain 10 in a million for this age group. No information is provided on fatalities.
Summary of Adverse Events in the U.K.
According to an updated report published on October 21st, the MHRA Yellow Card reporting system has recorded a total of 1,236,485 events based on 375,493 reports. The total number of fatalities reported is 1,715.
- Pfizer (22.9 million first doses, 19.9 million second doses) now has one Yellow Card in 187 people vaccinated. Deaths: 1 in 40,603 people vaccinated (564).
- AstraZeneca (24.9 million first doses, 24.1 million second doses) has one Yellow Card in 106 people vaccinated. Deaths: 1 in 22,616 people vaccinated (1,101).
- Moderna (1.5 million first doses, 1.2 million second doses) has one Yellow Card in 89 people vaccinated. Deaths: 1 in 78,947 people vaccinated (19).
Overall, one in every 131 people vaccinated (0.76%) 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.

Ah, the jab ‘safety’ update. One of my absolute favourite news round-ups.
Miss Nicki Minaj told us on 15 September that she had been invited to the White House to discuss the jabs causing exploding testicles, or some such, as well as other jab info. Did she ever go? What happened with the testicles? Did she wear all pink?
Vaccines don’t stop you getting the virus and don’t stop you spreading the virus.
Natural immunity does both yet it is ignored.
However, they do kill a lot of people who may be still alive today. This is genocide by any other name!
No. ‘Genocide’ is a particular term.
WTF?!!
Safe and effective my @rse.
Why a minus tick

I think the Daily Sceptic should start showing the identity of the thumbs up and thumbs down voters.
Don’t worry about these regular minus ticks. They are ritualistic knee jerk reactions from someone who religiously follows the government narrative without thinking. It signifies minus brain.

“At the country-level, there appears to be no discernable relationship between percentage of population fully vaccinated and new COVID-19 cases in the last 7 days (Fig. 1). In fact, the trend line suggests a marginally positive association such that countries with higher percentage of population fully vaccinated have higher COVID-19 cases per 1 million people.”
Ahem. In the previous week the total deaths reported was 1,719. Currently, it is 1,715. So the jab brings 4 people back to life? No. There were 5 deaths reported during the week – but MHRA removed 9 from accumulated totals!
They have done this before. If you look at the totals for the various categories since the start of the programme, you will see that the occasional death gets removed up to 9th June. After 9th June, several deaths are removed most weeks. It is quite a stark increase. These all come from cumulative totals and in no way pertain to the figures of the reported week.
So, what happened on 9th June? Tess Lawrie submitted her urgent report to MHRA to suspend the jabs pending investigation of the extraordinary number of deaths and adverse events. They were accumulating at a rate way beyond any previous ‘vaccine’. The MHRA’s response was not to investigate these serious and valid concerns, but to fumble with the figures. Irresponsible: nonfeasance, misfeasance and malfeasance.
Of the current 1,714 deaths, something should really be highlighted about ‘General Disorders’. These total 574 of the 1,714. About one third. Out of these ‘General Disorders’ are categories ‘Death’ (471) and ‘Sudden death’ (65). No description. No explanation. Nearly one third of all deaths the MHRA knows nothing about!
It is utterly irresponsible to continue this programme without any investigation at all. The onus is on MHRA to investigate exactly what is going on here and prove that these are not jab-related. The onus is not on others to prove that they are jab-related.
To proceed with this programme – and subject healthy children to these risks when they are not vulnerable to covid – is evil. I have never used that word before relating to modern day events, but I can think of no other description for those who are wilfully, knowingly pushing these jabs onto kids.
I rarely post or contribute to DS these days. The articles that are posted can be useful and informative, but they are missing this issue big time. How about addressing all the ‘Notices of Liability’ that ordinary folk are serving to schools etc? How about addressing the ‘Crime Reports’ that are subsequently handed in to Police Stations? This is going on all over the country, together with protests, roadside placards etc. DS says nothing. Shame on you!
Very well said! As much as I like and appreciate all the hard work the DS team put in every day, the tide is turning in a different, very sinister direction. We can no longer attribute this hideous state of affairs we find ourselves in to stupidity and incompetence by the government. It’s become very obvious now, how deliberate this actually all is!
Are protests still happening?
I agree about the abhorrent conduct of giving this poison to kids, but why is it less evil to give it to healthy adults?
Sadly the judiciary are bankrupt of any impartiality so handing out ‘Notices of Liability’ is rather pointless & the Police have less respect for the law than the mafia, they’re irreparably corrupt & bereft of any integrity, i’m afraid reporting anything to them is a worthless exercise, they had been captured by the ‘establishment’ from early on in their conception & have become highly politicized.
It takes a long time for people to break free of a lifetime of indoctrination & realize our institutions & public servants are entirely corrupt, we aren’t free & we haven’t been for a very long time. I realized many years before covid we are the cattle class managed, manipulated & exploited by a system of our own making we are all, just livestock cultured for the benefit of a tiny “elite” minority of callous psychopathic parasites! a.k.a. monarchy & corporate neoliberal elites.
Very true , my patriotic respect for even the queen herself vaporised with her bare handed shake of Gates sweaty devious palm , at Windsor Castle FFS ! If this WEF thing is a thing then they are all it together !!
Her Maj should take note: “The game’s the game; but at the end of the day, the king and pawn all go back in the same box.” – Omar Little
And she’s been unwell ever since. ‘If you sup with the Devil you need a very long spoon’.
Protests are still going on! Of course, you will never see it reported on mainstream media. The next London protest is this Saturday (30th October) at 13:00 at Hyde Park Corner. There are also local protests and Stand in the Park meets all round the country at 10:00 every Sunday. These are publicised via Telegram. This Saturday, I have been told that 10,000 children will be there, led by veterans.
I think the coercion of these jabs is evil across the board. But where there is no apparent need for them, that must surely be the worst of all. In conjunction with blocking the use of proven treatment, such as ivermectin, it is absolutely clear that these psychopathic tyrants have no interest in the public’s welfare whatsoever.
One may argue that any actions taken against this tyranny are fruitless, but compliance will lead to the imposition of even more dehumanising measures. Finding our shared humanity by meeting together will always be of benefit. As government measures get stricter and the population experience more pain and suffering, they will gradually come round. The truth will out!
Yep, we’re out there or four times a week, working with other groups to bring awareness. It’s not fun, although we keep our spirits up. It actually gets quite scary but we do it because it’s getting through! Our Stand in the Park has over 120 members now and were doing what ever we can to lead by example. Some arrogant old fool tried to literally push me out of the way when we met on Sunday. I invited him to come and speak properly to me but the ignoramus didn’t have the balls. But many do. Every week new people join us and talk to us. All these little actions build, like the butterfly effect.
Excellent!! Well done to you and your crew for getting off your butts, showing up doing something.
‘Rupley’ and ‘Revolution In The Streets’ videos on Youtube show the protests going on all over the world, some of them big ones – including Australia. But, of course, the MSM won’t mention them.
Mike, it’s a shame you don’t post more often. What you’ve put here is really useful information, that I’ve bookmarked. To be honest, I come here mostly for the btl comments and/or links from people like you that I can learn from and inform myself from.
I have been collecting Yellow Card report data since the start of the jab programme. By taking total deaths divided by 2x total jabs, I get the death rate for a fully-jabbed person. I have an accumulated death rate of 0.0036% (1 in 27,569).
I also average out the death rate over 3 weeks to see how it might be changing. In the previous week, that shot up to 0.0081% (1 in 12,352). Clearly, MHRA had to intervene and so they removed 5 deaths last week. Still, on the 3 weeks average, it stands at 0.0051% (1 in 19,494). The trend is upwards. How long can they keep removing past deaths and reducing the number in the current week?
In 2020, ONS figures show that 9 children under 15 died ‘with covid’ in a population of 9.8m. Of these, only 2 had no pre-existing conditions. That is, an unhealthy child was at a risk of about 1 in 1 million and a healthy child was at a risk of about 1 in 5 million!
We can see that the death rate is increasing as the age of jabbing reduces. We can reasonably assume the rate will be no less for the young. So, even after the most recent MHRA fiddle, we increase the death risk for healthy children by 5m/19,494 – about 250x. Jabbing is 250x more likely to kill healthy children than covid! Even for all children, including the unhealthy, it is 50x.
And these are only immediate deaths – those within a few days. Nobody knows what the future will bring, but it does not bode well.
Dr McCullough makes this point about the lack of any independent monitoring of the vaccine going on anywhere in the articles on TCW Defending Freedom website

For heaven’s sake get off the fence! There is at least as much evidence to show the damage done by the mRNA gene therapy treatments as there is to justify dailysceptic’s trenchant anti-lockdown stance.
At the very least throw your support behind Dr Tess Lawrie’s courageous efforts to persuade the MHRA to do the safety-checking job we taxpayers pay them for, rather than join the spineless ranks of those cringing behind the “nothing to see here” smokescreen thrown up by self appointed so-called fact checkers.
Assumedly, you are aware that this burgeoning sector – about the only growth industry in the lockdown-ravaged UK right now – is sponsored, directly or indirectly, by big corporations invested in “vaccines” (Google/AstraZeneca in the case of the particular fact-checking outfit you reference).
At least you had the decency to put the words “fact checked” in quotes!
This is for Toby
Academic research which has looked at how the vaccine AEs are being undercounted looks like coming up with around 40,000 UK deaths. What’s interesting is that if vaccines deaths were counted in the same way as Covid deaths (anyone dying of anything within 28 days of a positive Covid PCR death) there would be 30,000 vaccine deaths. Anyone who thinks there have been 1715 deaths is is serious denial.
But even 1715 vaccine deaths is an outrage when you consider 876 healthy under 60s have died from Covid across the whole pandemic. If our country is to survive, we must move the debate onto how the people behind this are going to face trial, and what they will be charged with. A world where they get away with this is not a world worth living in.
Spot on
The adverse reactions stats for Australia reported above are, like those for the UK, the US, etc, gross underestimates. One friend (Guardian-reader, ABC devotee and therefore living in terror of the virus) was hit for six by his first jab, spending three days in bed with fluey symptoms. Did not log the event with the TGA’s adverse events on-line system. And he’s looking forward to his second shot as well as the booster! A lost soul, taken by the great God of Covid Hysteria.
I was going to share that PHE info until I noticed on page 14 that more unvaxxed people across all age group are presenting to emergency care than in the vaxxed category. Same goes for deaths on the following page. The “cases” table goes in our favour though. So is this supporting evidence that the jabs do in fact protect against hospitalization and death, just not transmission and getting infected?
If page 14 is correct does it not go against everything posted on here lately ? Or is it meant to do that ? There so much data saying otherwise , i e , for example – healthy babies from jabbed moms dying etc !!…
If the data is accurate I’m perplexed because wouldn’t most people at genuinely high risk from getting severely ill from Covid have gotten jabbed by now, and also, wouldn’t anyone not jabbed at this point have gotten exposed to Covid long ago and acquired natural immunity as a result? So it’s a bit confusing to see significantly more in the “unvaccinated” category ending up in hospital at this late stage. They can’t all be “high-risk” people who decided against getting injected.
Apparently one possible reason for these figures may be that people who were vaxxed less than 2 weeks before, or who have only received one shot, are classified as unvaxxed. And I gather that many/the majority of the worst reactions/adverse events including death occur in the first 72 hours after vaccination.
And another possible reason for these figures ( where they are specifically about Covid cases ) is that the CT of tests for the vaxxed are allegedly being set lower than for the unvaxxed, meaning that serious illness and death occurring in the vaxxed is less likely to be categorised as covid related ( as using a lower CT level means less frequent detection of covid/fewer positive results ) than it will be in the unvaxxed, who will therefore appear to be more prone to serious covid illness and death. But I don’t know if there is any solid evidence for this argument, whereas my point above, ref how they classify the vaxxed as unvaxxed if less than 2 weeks before, etc, is apparently official policy.
PS. Correction: That should be 21 days/3 weeks, not 2 weeks, after shots according to GlassHalfFull’s post below, which would make the distortion of figures even worse.
Yeah I knew that but it can’t account for all of them, and I’m making a conscious effort to check my confirmation bias at the door, lol! Just doesn’t make sense to me.
It could account for most of them. We don’t know how many people classed as unvaxxed seriously ill/dead have already received one shot within the previous 21 days.
NHS changed their method of collecting with/from Covid patients in June (https://off-guardian.org/2021/06/11/the-nhs-just-changed-how-they-count-covid-cases-heres-why/). Maybe this could help explain the anomaly?
Much obliged!
In June, the NHS changed the way it collected numbers for Covid19 in hospital settings. (Archive to article: https://off-guardianDOTorg/2021/06/11/the-nhs-just-changed-how-they-count-covid-cases-heres-why/).
The move was done to bias towards a more effective jab.
PHE doesn’t exist anymore. It is now the UK Health Security Agency.
If you look at page 14 it shows that a first jab patient is only recorded as equal to or after 21 days of receiving a first dose.
Therefore anyone receiving the jab who has to go to hospital because of an adverse reaction “before” 21 days is classed as unvaccinated.
Also, if the UK has followed the US lead then the CT rates used for the PCR test are different between the vaccinated and unvaccinated making the jabs appear to be more successful than they actually are.
OK then. But I guess we’d need a FOI request to know for sure they’re testing differently and not just assume it’s like the U.S. Seems my query was worthy of 4 dislikes but hey ho…they can go fuck themselves!
Yes we do need an FOI.
I’ve suggested on another post that the identity of the likes and dislikes should be known.
Sorry but I was wrong to say ……
“Therefore anyone receiving the jab who has to go to hospital because of an adverse reaction “before” 21 days is classed as unvaccinated.”
I didn’t notice the column which gives the figures for those who received the jab up to 20 days.
However, everything else was correct and in addition the US no longer regards a jabbed person a case if the CT rate is 28 or below and even if it is below 28 and they have no symptoms they are also not regarded as a case.
We really need an FOI request to see if the UK is following suit to make the jab efficacy look better than it really is compared to the unvaccinated.
If the evidence indicates that around 8% get a Yellow Card event, then that would imply that around 50 MPs have had a YC event – yet we hear nothing. Same with all the celeb drug pushers. Makes you wonder if they are actually having the juice, a placebo or faking it with dummy needles like we saw with Elaine Page and so many others.
In recent days I’ve seen 3 commenters who seem to have launched a campaign against governments’ corruption of the English language creeping in here. In support of their campaign: –
Tests are tests. Jabs are jabs. Abnormal is abnormal.
If we use governments’ alternative versions of words, we aid government no less than those who fell for ‘project fear’ and are tricked every bit as much as they are.
The more often corrupted words are used the more they’re subliminally assimilated. Using them falls for and spreads governments’ propaganda
Well, the 589 vaxx-related deaths in Australia has just grown by at least one but even hat one may not make it into the official tally:
ABC radio presenter and TV weatherman, Russell Woolf, has just died at the age of 56. Died suddenly overnight in his Perth home, Western Australia (ABC News – Russell Woolf)
Only later in the report do we learn that this followed his Covid vaccination but the ABC, bless their mainstream media socks, don’t make any connection between the sudden unexplained death of a seemingly healthy, vibrant man in his mid-50s and his recent vaxx adventure. If he had died ‘of Covid’, we would have heard all about it from the Covid-hysterical ABC. If he had been cruelly struck down by a rotten accident or rare cancer or other medical tragedy, they would have told us, at length. But the vaxx? Ah, the Vaxx – pure as the driven snow.
WA Premier, Mark McGowan (the Zero Covid, closed borders and Vaxx Passport fanatic) said he was “deeply saddened” to hear of his death – but not, apparently, any hand that McGowan’s precious vaxx may have played in it.
https://yellowcard.ukcolumn.org/yellow-card-reports *at least* 1715 total fatalities in the UK.
https://openvaers.com/covid-data *at least* 17,128 deaths in the US.
https://alethonews.com/?s=VACCINE+DEATHS+EUROPE *at least* 27,247 dead in Europe.
Same general complaint as usual (not against this article) : raw numbers need to be standardized against a recognisable baseline – e.g. frequency of deaths following the Jab against those following other vaccinations.
It’s no good us complaining about ‘big number’ propaganda in the MSM whilst accepting the same re. adverse events.
The Testimonies Project was created to provide a platform for all those who were affected after getting the covid-19 vaccines, and to make sure their voices are heard, since they are not heard in the Israeli media.

A comment on the DAEN data from Australia. While the total number of CV deaths is correct at 1432, there were nil additional deaths from about end October 2020 (total approx 910) due to the alpha wave until about July 2021 when delta took off. The vax rollout started at the end of February 2021. So it’s better to compare the delta death numbers (1432 – 910) with the vaccine death numbers which shows currently CV deaths below vaccine deaths. At 21 October the situation was reversed with 622 vax deaths compared with 701 CV deaths. The DAEN is cagey about these data so as usual a fair amount of skepticism is required and one has to question if there is underreporting of vax deaths because it runs against the current narrative, DAEN is the reporting arm of the Therapeutic Goods Administration responsible for authorising vaccines in Australia. My expectation is that CV deaths will start to fall as the vax targets are reached and we move into summer but vax deaths will continue to climb as the targets are reached and boosters are required.
