What’s Going On:

Sanitation, Nutrition Better Than Vaccines at Protecting Children From Disease, Study Shows

In the 19th century, improvements in quality-of-life fundamentals such as drinking water, sanitation, housing and nutrition helped launch the public health profession.

The revolution in sanitation was one of the critical milestones that enabled Victorian-era Britain to dramatically reduce rates of sickness and death.

And in the 20th-century U.S., rising standards of living, including improvements in nutrition and sanitation, deserve the lion’s share of the credit for health improvements — not vaccination or other medical interventions.

The significant decline in mortality from illnesses such as measlespertussis and influenza — today dubbed “vaccine-preventable” despite ample evidence of vaccine failure — occurred well before the development of any vaccines for those diseases.

U.S. data also reveal comparable declines in mortality for other conditions for which there was never a vaccine program.

Ignoring this unambiguous historical record, officials nonetheless turned vaccination into the centerpiece of U.S. (and global) public health policy, cementing the formation of a relentless medical-pharmaceutical-government juggernaut that — thanks to compromised legislators, regulators, scientists and private-sector players — brooks no questioning.

Now, in a rare departure from vaccine-centric public health dogma, a study published in The BMJ reminds us that old-fashioned public health interventions not only matter but can make a difference in a very short time frame.

Using data from India, researchers from the University of California, Irvine (UCI) modestly propose that sanitation improvements “may play a role in strengthening [young] children’s immune response” and reducing their disease burden.

Reading between the lines, the study’s results also suggest vaccination programs, for all their professed benefits, cannot come close to making the same claims.

Intrigued by the relationship between sanitation and childhood illness, the UCI team looked at the incidence in Indian children of four “vaccine-preventable” diseases (VPDs) — measles, diphtheria, pertussis and tetanus — before and after the government’s implementation of an ambitious program to achieve universal sanitation coverage.

India launched the Swachh Bharat Mission (SBM) or “Clean India Campaign” in 2014, to tackle the problem of open defecation (the depositing of human stool in open spaces and waterways).

The “world’s largest toilet-building initiative” included the construction of more than 100 million toilets.

Although India is the world’s fifth-largest economy and has achieved impressive reductions in poverty, it accounts for 60% of the global population practicing open defecation. Within the country, this translates to somewhere between 26% and 48% of Indians.

Open defecation is a major cause of diarrheal disease in children. Even without diarrhea, fecal-oral contamination can also set in motion environmental enteropathy and a cascade of negative effects, including intestinal inflammation, malnutrition due to “significantly deranged” intestinal absorption, immune dysfunction and altered gut bacteria.

Standout results for measles

The UCI researchers admitted it would have made sense to evaluate the impact of sanitation improvements on the occurrence of the conditions that account for the majority of diarrheal disease episodes in India: cholera, salmonella, hepatitis A and rotavirus.

Surprisingly, however, there are no “nationally representative, publicly available data sets” that would permit such analyses.

The researchers’ rationale for punting to the four above-listed VPDs has to do with the high incidence of those conditions — relative to other countries — in Indian children under age 5.

For example:

  • Average measles incidence in that age group is estimated at 32.8 cases per 100,000, placing India among the top 10 countries worldwide. Global measles incidence as of 2019 was 12 per 100,000.
  • The estimated incidence of pertussis for India’s children under 5 (31.1 per 100,000) is 10 to 15 times higher than in other large countries such as Brazil, even in the context of rising incidence globally.
  • Similar patterns hold true for diphtheria and tetanus, with India’s incidence outpacing the global average.

What did the UCI team find when it examined disease incidence pre- and post-SBM?

“Rapid improvements in ambient sanitation through increased toilet availability correspond with a reduction in the annual incidence of measles” in children under 5.

Their findings also pinpointed the role of nutritional variables, such as vitamin A supplementation (long recognized as beneficial for reducing measles morbidity and mortality) and improved nutrition measured through the proxy of decreased childhood stunting.

Although they detected no impact of sanitation on the other three VPDs, they suggest this could be accounted for by underdiagnosis and underreporting due to a more ambiguous symptom profile.

‘Low vaccine effectiveness’

India has one of the largest vaccination programs in the world. Even in 2013 — the study’s baseline year — coverage for measles and diphtheria-pertussis-tetanus (DPT) vaccination for children under age 1 was already around 80%.

Fond of big-splash public health campaigns, the government of India declared, one year previously in 2012, a “year of intensification of routine immunization,” announcing several additions to its childhood vaccine schedule, and its intent to aggressively pursue “full immunization coverage … particularly in remote, backward and inaccessible areas and urban slums.”

Typically, Indian children receive one measles shot around 9 to 12 months of age, followed by a second dose at 16 to 24 months, as well as five DPT doses, in the form of problematic DPT-containing combination vaccines and DPT boosters.

Additionally, the National Immunization Schedule promotes not one but two tetanus shots for women during pregnancy.

Against this backdrop, the UCI authors argue, “India’s abysmal global [VPD] ranking raises questions about low vaccine effectiveness.”

To explain vaccine “underperformance,” the UCI researchers cite literature suggesting environmental enteropathy and related gut dysfunction and undernutrition interfere with vaccine effectiveness — even though those findings largely pertain to orally administered rather than injected vaccines.

Other features of India’s childhood vaccination program might also have something to do with the higher-than-average under-5 mortality blamed on VPDs.

Consider the following:

  • India has been at the forefront of the global rollout of five-in-one and six-in-one combination vaccines, the latter of which contain components for diphtheria, tetanus, pertussis, hepatitis B, Haemophilus influenzae type b and polio.Studies and manufacturer data link these potent concoctions to infant deaths. (Vaxelis, a six-in-one vaccine containing a “double whammy” of untested aluminum adjuvant, is now being given to American infants.)
  • India’s children receive multiple doses of oral polio vaccine (OPV) — so-called “pulse polio” vaccination — and inactivated polio vaccine (IPV), either alone or in combination vaccines. In 2018, Indian researchers linked OPV pulsing to hundreds of thousands of cases of pediatric paralysis, also noting the paralyzed children died at twice the rate compared to mortality caused by wild polio.
  • India’s national vaccination program requires children in about 25% of the country’s districts to receive two doses of Japanese encephalitis (JE) vaccine in their first two years of life. Case reports and manufacturer inserts associate JE injections with sudden deathfatal myocarditis and life-threatening allergic reactions in children and young adults.

Public health myopia

For the most part, timeless and unglamorous basics such as sanitation, when mentioned at all, are disparagingly referred to as “old public health.”

The UCI study shows the memory-holing of such measures is short-sighted.

Other researchers agree that water, sanitation, hygiene and nutrition interventions constitute a public health “blind spot.”

Even UNICEF, hardly a neutral party in pushing vaccines as “the world’s safest method to protect children from life-threatening diseases,” concedes the “sanitation-nutrition nexus” deserves “far greater attention by policy-makers, practitioners and researchers.”

In 2015, Indian researchers questioned their country’s rigid JE vaccination policy, calling for an urgent reappraisal and telling policymakers to “tread with caution!”

Noting that JE accounts for a minority of India’s brain-swelling cases, they described enteroviruses — illnesses associated with polio and meningitis and linked to lax conditions of sanitation — as “coming in a big way as far as the encephalitis group of illnesses. . . is concerned.”

Their conclusion: “Public health efforts should not focus on vaccination alone.”

These types of observations, together with the UCI results, are reminders that it’s past time to reorient public health toward interventions that, unlike vaccines, not only do no harm but make a lasting difference.

Steve Kirsch’s offer to share videos and blood clot tissue samples from multiple embalmers with the CDC and FDA

I’m posting this to establish a public record that they were informed and offered the evidence and took no action.

This is extremely important evidence that has been in the public domain for a while that they have been willfully ignoring.

I don’t expect a reply anytime soon because every time they have indicated that they aren’t interested in evidence showing they are killing people. They don’t want to see it.

I don’t expect a reply because the videos and tissue samples would be impossible to explain. All of this information has been known for months (since at least Feb. 4 when Hirschman appeared on Stew Peters and a few days later on my channel). Has Richard Hirschman ever been contacted? Of course not!

They will prefer to just ignore the issue and pretend it isn’t happening.

Or perhaps they can claim it is rare since it only happens in up to 90% of cases (they define rare as less than 100% of cases). In Hirschman’s case, it’s gone from 65% of his cases to now over 83% of his cases.

Check out just one of the videos (just 60 seconds; it’s a must see) that I want them to see. This is from embalmer Richard Hirschman who is seeing these clots in over 40% of the cases he embalms. This is taken from an artery in a man who died after COVID vaccination. Richard is seeing these clots now in 83% of the 35 cases that he did this month.

I formally filed a complaint with the HHS Inspector General today

I reported these people to the HHS Inspector General today.

Dr. Ryan Cole on these telltale blood clots in vaccinated people

Watch this video at the 40 minute mark where Dr. Cole explains that these clots are caused by the spike protein which is why the body can’t break them down. I’m mentioned in the video a couple of times. Watch it for around 7 minutes to get the full story.

People who get vaccinated are at markedly higher risk of dying, permanent disability, and also brain diseases such as Alzheimers.

Summary

My email to the FDA and CDC is one more piece of additional evidence showing people at the FDA and CDC are uninterested in seeing any evidence showing the vaccines are killing people.

There is simply no way to explain the video above.

Pfizer Document Bombshell: Hid, Concealed & Redacted, Hired 1000s To Process Adverse Events Increase

During a recent appearance on Steven Bannon’s War Room, Dr. Naomi Wolf dove into just how corrupt the rollout of the COVID shots were, mentioning that the number of adverse events were so high during the rollout period that Pfizer had to onboard thousands of new staff members to merely address the paperwork that accompanied said events.

“Stevan Looney, who is a litigator, an attorney in New Mexico, who previously confirmed fraud by Pfizer, has done a review of the April tranche – the new tranche – and he found it shocking that 2,400 full-time employees were hired by Pfizer in February of 2021.

“Because just in the three months previously, since the vaccines were rolled out December 1st, 2020, three months later, February 28th, 2021, they found… Pfizer’s words to the FDA, ‘A large number of adverse events,’ so, so large, that they had to hire 2,400 new full-time employees to process the adverse events that they anticipated they’d receive in March, April, May, and June in the four months of 2021 to follow.”

Dr. Wolf remarked on how it was “stunning” that the casualty toll from these COVID shots was so high during the era of “get vaccinated” and “get boosted” and yet, “You did not hear that there were so many adverse events in Pfizer’s internal reviews that they had to hire 2,400 new full-time employees to deal with the paperwork and the data processing they expected due to the anticipated volume of adverse events.”

In Dr. Wolf’s opinion, this “bombshell” also attributes blame to the FDA in the matter, as she alleged that the agency was engaged in a “massive, massive crime and cover-up” to conceal this information from the general public at the time.

When discussing the “redacted and unredacted documents” reviewed by Stevan Looney –  with the redacted version dropping this past March and the unredacted version dropping this April – the latest document drop details even further onboardings to help address the numerous adverse events related to these COVID shots.

Dr. Wolf lamented on just how much information was kept from the public during the rollout of these shots. At the same time, they were hyped up as being the greatest thing to grace the world stage – emphasizing that no one in the general public was privy that Pfizer had to hire this massive number of employees simply to process paperwork. This is especially interesting, according to Wolf, that the paperwork was affiliated with adverse events and reactions to these shots.

“You weren’t told that that they were hiring 2,400 new employees because of the volume of bad outcomes, dangerous outcomes, and in the papers, they ranged from death to spontaneous abortion to, you know, horrible skin disorders, hives, anencephaly, anaphylaxis, horrible outcomes. There were so many they couldn’t keep up with it with their own staff.”

US Government Paid Mainstream Media $1 Billion in Tax Dollars To Falsify Covid-19 “Vaccine” Narrative

“Fool me once, shame on you; fool me twice, shame on me!”

How many times does the mainstream media need to be exposed for their fraud, their lies and their propaganda?

This ministry has been faithful to expose the MSM’s corruption at every given turn (Ephesians 5:11), only to have the corrupt to fill up their cup with a new deception (Ephesians 4:14).

The American people know all the while that there is no truth in them (John 8:44) and they allow them to set the next narrative without an ounce of truth in it, and the people love to have it so (Jeremiah 5:31)!

The US government paid the mainstream media $1 billion in tax dollars to falsely push Covid-19 vaccines.

In response to a Freedom of Material Act (FOIA) request, the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) provided information to The Blaze. According to the material, the federal government spent $1 billion on advertising as part of a media push to boost public confidence in the Covid-19 vaccination.

The campaign is being branded as a “national push to improve public trust in, and uptake of, COVID-19 vaccines while promoting basic preventative strategies such as mask-wearing and social distance,” according to the Department of Health and Human Services. Although the data does not support these claims, the media effort was most likely concealing something more nefarious.

Anyone who has spent time reading the news or watching news coverage on television can attest to this

Virtually every one of the news organizations paid by HHS, including ABC, NBC, CBS, CNN, MSNBC, The Washington Post, Los Angeles Times and the New York Post, covered stories about the vaccines and did not disclose they had accepted taxpayer dollars to support the vaccine effort.

Because it is normal practice for editorial teams to work independently from advertising departments, it appears that the organizations did not see the need to reveal their funding.
The ads included a humorous social media campaign starring Elton John and Michael Caine, fear-based ads presenting survivor stories, and clear factual ads supporting the safety and efficacy of the current COVID-19 mRNA injectable.

The Washington Post’s vice president of communications, Shani George, issued a comment about the federal government’s financing for media advertising, saying:

“Advertisers pay for space to share their messages, as was the case here, and those ads are clearly labeled as such. The newsroom is completely independent from the advertising department.”

A funny social media campaign starring Elton John and Michael Caine, fear-based commercials including survivor stories, and straightforward factual ads confirming the safety and efficacy of the current COVID-19 mRNA injection were among the advertisements.

Shani George, vice president of communications at the Washington Post, commented on the federal government’s funding of media advertising, saying:
In an October BuzzFeed post, health agency specialists such as CDC director Dr. Rochelle Walensky, HHS Secretary Xavier Becerra, and epidemiologist Dr. George Rutherford provided “important facts” about vaccine eligibility and skewed, pro-vaccine views.

It Got Worse! UK Reports 92% of Covid-19 Deaths are Vaccinated!

Triple Vaxxed are 262% more likely to be infected with Covid-19 in the UK. That is what leads to a 92% death rate of the vaccinated. Also, Fort Bragg lost over 80 soldiers from “sudden” and “unexplained” causes, so they stopped reporting the deaths in June 2021. Many more have likely died, and I explain so much more in the video.

Vaxxed Deaths Outpace Non-vaxxed 3-to-1

If you got the jab, pay attention to this data. There is a reason some of us refer to Wuflu vaccines as “death pokes”.

Evidence now confirms that the Wuflu vaccines do not work. Data from Canada and Israel–both highly vaccinated countries–reveals that an overwhelming majority of new Wuflu cases and deaths come from those who have been fully vaccinated.

In Canada, over 80 percent of the population is fully vaccinated. Moreover, nearly half the population has received the boosters.

In Israel the numbers are slightly left, but still significant as 68 percent of their population is fully vaccinated. And 58 percent received the booster.

Now the bad news for those who were tricked (or forced) into getting this death poke.

Data from the Canadian government confirmed what many “anti-vaxxers” (as we were called) knew inherently: this vaccine was worse than the virus itself. In Canada, the fully vaccinated accounted for 7 out of 10 of the Wuflu-related deaths. Put another way, you are 233 percent more likely to die from Wuflu if you were vaccinated.

By the numbers

The data range occurred between the dates of Jan 9-15. During this week, Canada reported 683 Wuflu deaths.

  • 467 deaths fully vaccinated
  • 194 deaths from unvaccinated
  • 22 deaths partially vaccinated

68 percent of the deaths were fully vaccinated. And when you add in the partially vaccinated, the ratio increases to 71.5 percent.

I would call these shocking statistics, except real experts were sounding the alarm bell on this. Clearly, people were safer NOT getting these so-called vaccines.

Israel shows similar results

The Israeli Ministry of Health reported that the country experienced 14,460 new Wuflu cases on March 21. Those numbers represent a 12 percent increase from the new Wuflu cases reported a day earlier, 12,929. Currently Israel is reporting the most Wuflu cases per capita in the world.

Of the 14,460 cases of diagnosed Wuflu on March 21, according to the Health Ministry, the vast majority of those infected were vaccinated. In fact, the data shows that 83.1 percent of the new Wuflu cases were from the vaccinated, and only 16.1 percent from the unvaccinated. As for the percentage disparity, no vaccination status was listed.

No signs of improvement for the vaccinated

Last month, the medical director of one of the largest hospitals in Tel Aviv reported a shocking statistic during an interview. He commented that 70 to 80 percent of the serious Wuflu cases in the hospital where he works were fully vaccinated.

“Right now, most of our severe cases are vaccinated”, said Dr. Yaakov Jerris, Director of the Tel Aviv Sourasky Medical Center. They had at least three injections. Between 70 to 80 percent of the serious cases are vaccinated. So, the vaccine has no significance regarding severe illness, which is why just 20 to 25 percent of our patients are unvaccinated”.

No matter how many facts we try to spread, we’re constantly accused of “misinformation” or “fake news.” In fact, I’m willing to bet a fact-checker tries to debunk this as soon as I hit “PUBLISH.” But eventually, the truth will be undeniable. Especially as more family members bury their fully-vaccinated relatives after losing battles with covid. A lie can only live for so long. That’s the beauty of it all- truth eventually prevails.

9 in 10 COVID Deaths Are in Vaccinated People: Report

A report released by the UK government has confirmed that 9 out of every 10 deaths related to COVID-19 are found in those who are fully vaccinated. Although the virus variant is the same and the UK approved only one different vaccine (AstraZeneca) from the United States, the data in the U.S. are different. This may be due in large part to the CDC definition used to identify who is “vaccinated.”U.S. data are also likely to become even more sparse in the coming weeks and months. In addition to the CDC hiding data, the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) quietly decided in early February to stop recording deaths attributed to COVID-19.Data Is EssentialYet, data is the foundation of scientific analysis. Without it, researchers are unable to analyze statistics and draw conclusions, which leaves public health experts unable to make accurate recommendations. Knowledge gives you the power to make informed decisions based on evidence.Six months into the pandemic, a report revealed that most Americans had significant misconceptions of the COVID-19 risks. Months later, a second survey demonstrated that not much had changed. While analysts blamed “ignorance of fundamental, undisputed facts on who is at risk” for the so-called misconceptions, others said the politicization of the pandemic was also at fault. But there were other factors at play that skewed the data scientists thought they had.According to a whistleblower who worked on Pfizer’s Phase 3 COVID injection clinical trials, data were falsified, patients were unblinded, the company hired poorly trained people to administer the injections and follow up on reported side effects lagged way behind. Her testimony was published November 2, 2021, in the British Medical Journal by investigative journalist Paul Thacker.This is yet another indication that the true number of adverse events and deaths from the shots currently identified as COVID vaccines may never be known. The only logical conclusion to draw is that the data don’t support the Warp Speed production and mass vaccination program initiated in early 2020.In fact, the shot program not only is ineffective, but also has likely damaged and killed far more people than any health agency will ever publicly admit. It is essential to share this information to help prevent more deaths and damaged lives.UK Government Report: 90 Percent of Deaths Are in Fully VaccinatedA reporter from The Exposé points out that while the world has been distracted by Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, the UK government quietly released a report that confirmed 9 in every 10 deaths from COVID-19 in England were in people who were fully vaccinated.The February 2022 report was from the UK Health Security Agency, which publishes weekly surveillance. The report contains several tables of raw data showing that the vast majority of people who were infected, hospitalized or died from COVID-19 were fully vaccinated.The Exposé, demonstrated step by step how the data, gathered from Jan. 24, 2022, through February 28, 2022, supported this assertion. In the UK, health authorities differentiate between those who have never received a shot and those who received one, two or three doses. All told, there were 1,086,434 cases of COVID in vaccinated individuals that accounted for 73 percent of all cases during that period.When children were removed from the equation, vaccinated individuals accounted for 91 percent of all cases. The reporter also compared data taken in 2021 when Delta was the dominant variant against the current report when Omicron is the dominant variant in England. It showed a higher number of children hospitalized for Omicron than for Delta.Since children have never been at high risk for severe disease from any COVID variant, it begs the question if the current number of children hospitalized with COVID-19 may be due to increased PCR testing—known to have a high false-positive rate—in children hospitalized for other reasons, such as a broken leg or appendicitis.When children were included in the figures for hospitalization, the data showed 75 percent of those hospitalized with COVID in the current period were vaccinated. But, when children were removed from the equation, 85 percent of the hospitalized individuals were vaccinated. Similar results were found when the data were analyzed for COVID deaths.During the four-week period in the current report, vaccinated individuals accounted for 89 percent of deaths. Most interestingly, not only are the deaths in vaccinated individuals rising precipitously, but the number of deaths in those who are not vaccinated is dropping.Vaccinated Deaths Rising in CaliforniaHeadlines in the March 7, 2022, Mercury News read, “COVID-19 Deaths in California Among Vaccinated Rose Sharply With Omicron.” The corresponding story added that 10 deaths recorded in Santa Cruz County, California, and nine of those were vaccinated. On the surface, this is similar to findings reported from the UK. Yet, the raw numbers in the United States are different.This is likely because U.S. data do not differentiate between individuals who have had one, two or three shots. In fact, the U.S. CDC clearly states that you can only be considered fully vaccinated two weeks after receiving the final dose in the primary two-shot series from Pfizer and Moderna or the one shot from Johnson & Johnson.Therefore, as the UK analyzes data that identify individuals on the spectrum of having received one of three shots, the United States only counts vaccination if you’re two weeks after your last dose. Since not all patients who are fully vaccinated are identified on admission, analyzing U.S. numbers is difficult, if not impossible. You must ask yourself if this is intentional.It probably is safe to assume that if a person in the United States is identified as being vaccinated, they are likely fully vaccinated by CDC standards. However, there are also likely individuals lumped into the unvaccinated group who have had one or two shots or may even be fully vaccinated by CDC standards but were not counted as such on admission.The Mercury News justified the vaccinated deaths, writing: “Of the vaccinated patients who died, one was in his early 100s, three were in their 90s, two were in their 80s, three were in their 70s and most had underlying health problems. The unvaccinated man who died was in his 50s.”While age is certainly a significant factor in any infectious disease including COVID, the article did not mention any of the other CDC-identified comorbidities that contribute to COVID deaths. To add to the misinformation, the article quoted Dr. Errol Ozdalga, a hospitalist at Stanford, who told the Mercury News that patients admitted during the Delta wave and earlier infections were otherwise healthy.The implication is that those with comorbidities the CDC identified as increasing the risk of severe illness, such as heart disease, diabetes, obesity, chronic kidney disease and immunocompromised, were not hospitalized with COVID before Omicron.““That went away with Omicron,” Ozdalga said. The variant has afflicted those with weakened immune systems, those who were “predisposed in some way” to severe illness, he said.” Additionally, without supporting information, the news report included a simple statement:“Dr. George Rutherford, an infectious disease expert at UC-San Francisco, said the raw numbers make the deaths among the vaccinated look worse than they are — their rates of dying remain far less than the unvaccinated.”Economist Survey Reveals Significant Vaccine Injury RateEconomist Mark Skidmore executed a critical online survey using the U.S. population to estimate damage from the COVID-19 shots. He presented the most recent and significant data20 from the ongoing study at the Doctors for COVID Ethics Symposium 3.His paper seeks to understand the number of people who have died from the COVID shots that he estimates based on the survey. He used the survey to triangulate information from the general population and what they are experiencing.The participants were asked to report on the adverse events of people they knew best in their social circle — in other words, good friends or family members. The surveys were close to representative of the general population in age, income and gender in December 2021.Skidmore first presented a list of adverse events the FDA acknowledged could be possible and compared it against the documented data of injury and deaths from the Vaccine Adverse Events Reporting System (VAERS) published in OpenVAERS.Some of the most common events on the list were stroke, heart attack, myocarditis, death, thrombocytopenia and venous thromboembolism (blood clots). According to Skidmore, everyone agrees that adverse events can and do occur — the main difference in opinion is how often and how many.Skidmore then looked at the ratio between COVID illness fatalities and COVID shot fatalities. The ratio in OpenVAERS is 2.6 percent and in VAERS (the number reported by the CDC that doesn’t contain all data originally substantiated) it’s 0.9 percent.If these numbers reflect reality, the number of people who report injury or death in the survey should be close to zero since the cohort is small enough that it may not capture such a small percentage. Skidmore then asks, if we assume that the survey is a reflection of the true ratio in the population, what is the true population ratio for injury or death after receiving the COVID-19 shot?From the data collected the ratio reveals there have been 307,997 deaths from the shot. The method used gives a 95 percent confidence interval between 215,018 and 391,410 deaths. Using the same mathematical approach to identify the number of severe adverse events to the general population, the data show there were roughly 1.1 million severe events and 2.3 million less severe events from the shot.He acknowledges that much of what people see and report is through the lens of their biases. One of those is political affiliation. He showed that people who identified as Democrats reported far fewer shot-related deaths than did Republicans or independents. This likely also affects the number of deaths and adverse events reported to VAERS.Using the fatality counts by party affiliation, he found that if the Democrat perception was correct, there were 119,000 fatalities compared to 487,000 fatalities if the Republican perception was correct. This gives a potential range of deaths and illustrates the differences in perceptions of people based on how they see the world. However, no matter which number is used, it is still far more than the number of fatalities reported in the VAERS system.Unprecedented US Death Toll Keeps RisingWhile the data from Skidmore and the UK reflect the death rate from COVID-19, it is also important to track the number of all-cause mortality as it’s one of the most reliable data points we have. This statistic is clear-cut. Either a person is dead or they’re not. It does not rely on the reason for death.In early 2022, mutual insurance holding company OneAmerica announced an increase in the death rate of working Americans, aged 18 to 64, in the third quarter of 2021. Their data show it was 40 percent higher than prepandemic levels.Other insurance companies have also cited higher mortality rates, including the Hartford Insurance Group that announced mortality increased 32 percent from 2019 and 20 percent from 2020 before the shots. Lincoln National reported death claims have increased 13.7 percent year over year and 54 percent in quarter four of 2021 compared to 2019.Funeral homes are also posting an increase in burials and cremations in 2021 over 2020. One large German health insurance company reported their company data were nearly 14 times greater than the number of deaths reported by the German government. This data were gathered directly from doctors applying for payment from a sample of 10.9 million people.The rising death toll that can be linked to the COVID shots is an inconvenient truth for the health agencies that have promoted mass vaccinations with a genetic therapy experiment. In what appears to be a response to this data, Health and Human Services (HHS) have decided to stop the reporting requirements for hospitals and acute care facilities on COVID-19 deaths.Although the information is published on the HHS website, fact-checkers have claimed the viral social media posts are “false” by simply changing the headline.29 So, while the HHS publicly announced they would no longer require hospitals to report deaths from COVID-19, fact-checkers erroneously report the U.S. government is not ending daily COVID death reporting.If it helps to sort all this out, an unnamed federal health official actually acknowledged the move to stop reporting COVID-19 hospital deaths when they spoke with a reporter from WSWS, calling the move “incomprehensible.” The official added, “It is the only consistent, reliable and actionable dataset at the federal level. Ninety-nine percent of hospitals report 100% of the data every day. I don’t know any scientists who want to have less data.”CDC Withholds Data, Fearing Hesitancy and MisinterpretationWhen data from multiple sources all reveal the same trends and values, it’s easy to see how the CDC would be unwilling to acknowledge the information or want to release their data for fear it would have a negative impact on the mass vaccination campaign. February 20, 2022, The New York Times reported the CDC still had not published large parts of the data they collected during the pandemic.While they have published data on the effectiveness of boosters in some individuals, data from people 18 to 49 years were left out. Interestingly, this is also the group who are the least likely to benefit from the shot, since they have some of the lowest rates of severe disease and death as reported by the CDC.In comments to The New York Times, a CDC spokesperson attempted to justify why the organization had withheld large portions of data since the beginning of the pandemic. She said the data were “not yet ready for prime time,” that the information may be misinterpreted to mean the vaccines are ineffective and that the data they have is based on 10 percent of the U.S. population, which the Times pointed out is the same sample size used to track influenza each year.Without raw data from the United States, scientists have relied on Israeli data. One study gathered information from 4.6 million people ages 16 and older who had received two doses of the Pfizer vaccine. They compared severe illness and death between those who had the booster and those who did not. The data showed the group from 16 to 29 years had zero deaths whether they were boosted or not.Likewise, the group from 30 to 39 years had one death whether they were boosted or not. In fact, the difference in death rate did not rise until the participants were 60 to 69 years, at which point the non-boosted group had 44 deaths and the boosted group had 32 deaths.In an opinion piece, Staten Island Advance’s Tom Wrobleski characterizes the CDC’s decision, writing about what has happened to most people who have been willing to publish data and opinions that go against a national or international health agency’s narrative:
