From Dr. Joseph Mercola
Since COVID-19 first entered the scene, trade of concepts has principally been outlawed. By sharing my views and people from numerous consultants all through the pandemic on COVID remedies and the experimental COVID jabs, I grew to become a important goal of the White House, the political institution and the worldwide cabal.
Propaganda and pervasive censorship have been deployed to grab management over each a part of your life, together with your well being, funds and meals provide. The main media are key gamers and have been instrumental in creating and fueling worry.
I’m republishing this text in its authentic type with the intention to see how the development unfolded.
Originally revealed: September 8, 2020
Could a “perfect storm” be brewing, able to be unleashed this fall? If the common influenza season finally ends up converging with a resurgence of SARS-CoV-2 outbreaks, or perhaps a new SARS-CoV-3, the outcomes are anybody’s guess at this level. Confounding issues is the likelihood that influenza vaccination might enhance individuals’s threat of different viral infections.
In a June 12, 2020, Science editorial, Michael Osterholm, virologist and director of the Center for Infectious Disease Research and Policy on the University of Minnesota in Minneapolis, and Edward Belongia, director of the Center for Clinical Epidemiology and Population Health on the Marshfield Clinic Research Institute in Marshfield, Wisconsin write:1
“There are necessary variations within the epidemiology of COVID-19 and seasonal influenza, however signs overlap … The prospect of a second COVID-19 wave requires planning to make sure optimum supply of influenza vaccines beginning within the early fall …
The optimum timing of influenza vaccination in sufferers with confirmed COVID-19 is unsure. There are not any medical research on the results of influenza vaccination in sufferers with COVID-19, however it might be prudent to delay vaccine administration till after the acute sickness has resolved …
Will there be an ideal storm of COVID-19 and influenza in the course of the 2020–2021 season? We don’t but know, however we should begin making ready within the coming months.”
‘False Claim’ Is Based on Published Science
Osterholm and Belongia stress there’s a “false claim that influenza vaccination increases the risk of SARS-CoV-2 infection” promoted by Judy Mikovits and circulating on-line, and that “Scientists, health care providers, and public health leaders must counter these claims with clear, evidence-based information on the importance of influenza vaccination during the COVID-19 pandemic.”
But this so-called “false claim” isn’t a rumor pulled out of skinny air. As is so usually the case, Osterholm and Belongia are literally insulting fellow virologists and researchers when slapping a hoax label on such claims, seeing how there may be revealed analysis exhibiting that, sure, influenza vaccination seems to worsen outcomes throughout viral pandemics.
If Osterholm and Belongia wished to be factual and clear, they need to dissect the precise research utilizing scientific strategies and reasoning, and never simply dismiss them as made-up web hoaxes.
The indisputable fact that peer-reviewed research have come to the conclusion that earlier flu vaccination appears to extend sufferers’ threat of contracting extra extreme pandemic sickness at the very least worthy of consideration and evaluation.
I’m not stunned although, seeing how Osterholm seems to routinely ignore the truth of revealed science. In a March 10, 2020, interview with Joe Rogan,2 wherein the query of SARS-CoV-2’s origin got here up, Osterholm acknowledged that “we could not have crafted a virus like this to do what it’s doing; I mean we don’t have the creative imagination or the skill set.”
This merely doesn’t line up with actuality. Again, revealed analysis reveals we clearly have the know-how, know-how and “creative imagination” to create SARS-CoV-2.
Flu Vaccine Increased Risk of Pandemic H1N1
So, what’s the foundation for these claims? Research elevating critical questions on flu vaccinations and their influence on pandemic viral diseases embody a 2010 evaluation3,4 in PLOS Medicine, led by Dr. Danuta Skowronski, a Canadian influenza knowledgeable with the Centre for Disease Control in British Columbia, which discovered the seasonal flu vaccine elevated individuals’s threat of getting sick with pandemic H1N1 swine flu and resulted in additional critical bouts of sickness.
People who obtained the trivalent influenza vaccine in the course of the 2008-2009 flu season had been between 1.4 and a couple of.5 instances extra prone to get contaminated with pandemic H1N1 within the spring and summer season of 2009 than those that didn’t get the seasonal flu vaccine.
In all, 5 observational research performed throughout a number of Canadian provinces discovered similar outcomes. These findings additionally confirmed preliminary knowledge from Canada and Hong Kong. As Australian infectious illness knowledgeable professor Peter Collignon informed ABC News on the time:5
“Some fascinating knowledge has turn into obtainable which means that when you get immunized with the seasonal vaccine, you get much less broad safety than when you get a pure an infection …
We could also be perversely setting ourselves up that if one thing actually new and nasty comes alongside, that individuals who have been vaccinated might in actual fact be extra prone in comparison with getting this pure an infection.”
Double-Blind Animal Study Confirmed Results
To double-check the findings, Skowronski and different researchers performed a examine on ferrets. Their findings had been introduced on the 2012 Interscience Conference on Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy. As reported by MedPage Today:6
“A double-blind, placebo-controlled animal examine means that vaccination with seasonal influenza vaccine did, in actual fact, worsen signs after subsequent publicity to H1N1 flu … The vaccinated ferrets additionally amassed considerably larger lung virus titers — 4.96 plot forming models/ml versus 4.23 pfu/ml …
‘We did find that the ferret findings were consistent with our earlier human studies,’ Skowronski mentioned, noting that the scientifically stringent experiment used ferrets, thought-about to be glorious fashions of human influenza an infection …
‘We needed to follow up on those studies from Canada. They were clearly indicating something important about the interaction between seasonal and pandemic viruses,’ she mentioned.
‘First, individuals attributed the human findings to bias and confounding. That is a standard drawback with observational research … Our ferret research confirmed that the findings couldn’t be defined away on the premise of confounding.
There could also be a direct vaccine impact wherein the seasonal vaccine induced some cross-reactive antibodies that acknowledged pandemic H1N1 virus, however these antibodies had been at low ranges and weren’t efficient at neutralizing the virus,’ she continued, explaining that as an alternative of killing the brand new virus it truly might facilitate its entry into the cells.”
Flu Vaccine Increases Risk of Respiratory Infections
Another examine,7 revealed within the Journal of Virology in 2011, discovered the seasonal flu vaccine weakens youngsters’s immune programs and will increase their possibilities of getting sick from influenza viruses not included within the vaccine.
Further, when blood samples from 27 wholesome, unvaccinated youngsters and 14 youngsters who had obtained an annual flu shot had been in contrast, the previous unvaccinated group was discovered to have naturally constructed up extra antibodies throughout a greater variety of influenza strains in comparison with the latter vaccinated group, which is the kind of scenario Collignon referred to within the quote above.
Then there’s a 2012 examine8,9 within the journal Clinical Infectious Diseases, which discovered that youngsters receiving inactivated influenza vaccines had a 4.4 instances greater relative threat of contracting noninfluenza respiratory virus infections within the 9 months following their inoculation.
The authors proposed the idea that “Being protected against influenza, trivalent inactivated influenza vaccine recipients may lack temporary nonspecific immunity that protected against other respiratory viruses.”
Natural Infection, Inoculation Confer Different Protection
So, on the one hand, research have proven that once you get the flu vaccine, it’s possible you’ll turn into extra vulnerable to flu brought on by influenza viruses that aren’t contained within the vaccine, or different noninfluenza viral respiratory diseases, together with coronavirus infections (extra on that beneath).
Conversely, researchers10,11,12 just lately discovered that frequent colds brought on by the betacoronaviruses OC43 and HKU1 may truly make you extra immune to SARS-CoV-2 an infection, and that the ensuing immunity may final so long as 17 years.
The authors counsel that when you’ve beat a standard chilly brought on by a OC43 or HKU1 betacoronavirus previously, you will have a 50/50 likelihood of getting defensive T-cells that may acknowledge and assist defend towards SARS-CoV-2.
Flu Vaccination Increases Risk of Coronavirus Infection
So, what about SARS-CoV-2? Is there any proof to counsel influenza vaccines may render individuals extra prone to this pandemic virus too? So far, nobody has checked out SARS-CoV-2 particularly, however there are current findings exhibiting seasonal flu vaccinations can worsen coronavirus infections typically.
Remember, SARS-CoV-2 is certainly one of seven completely different coronaviruses identified to trigger respiratory sickness in people.13 Four of them trigger signs related to the frequent chilly: 229E, NL63, OC43 and HKU1.
In addition to the frequent chilly, OC43 and HKU1 — two of essentially the most generally encountered betacoronaviruses14 — are additionally identified to trigger bronchitis, acute exacerbation of continual obstructive pulmonary illness and pneumonia in all age teams.15 The different three human coronaviruses — that are able to inflicting extra critical respiratory sickness — are SARS-CoV, MERS-CoV and SARS-CoV-2.
A examine16,17 revealed within the January 10, 2020, concern of the journal Vaccine discovered individuals had been extra prone to get some type of coronavirus an infection if that they had been vaccinated towards influenza. As famous on this examine, titled “Influenza Vaccination and Respiratory Virus Interference Among Department of Defense Personnel During the 2017-2018 Influenza Season:”
“Receiving influenza vaccination might enhance the chance of different respiratory viruses, a phenomenon generally known as virus interference. Test-negative examine designs are sometimes utilized to calculate influenza vaccine effectiveness.
The virus interference phenomenon goes towards the essential assumption of the test-negative vaccine effectiveness examine that vaccination doesn’t change the chance of an infection with different respiratory sickness, thus doubtlessly biasing vaccine effectiveness ends in the constructive route.
This examine aimed to research virus interference by evaluating respiratory virus standing amongst Department of Defense personnel primarily based on their influenza vaccination standing. Furthermore, particular person respiratory viruses and their affiliation with influenza vaccination had been examined.”
While seasonal influenza vaccination didn’t increase the chance of all respiratory infections, it was in actual fact “significantly associated with unspecified coronavirus (meaning it did not specifically mention SARS-CoV-2) and human metapneumovirus” (hMPV).
Those who had obtained a seasonal flu shot had been 36% extra prone to contract coronavirus an infection and 51% extra prone to contract hMPV an infection than unvaccinated people.18,19
Looking on the signs record for hMPV20 is telling, as the principle signs embody fever, sore throat and cough. The aged and immunocompromised are at heightened threat for extreme hMPV sickness, the signs of which embody problem respiratory and pneumonia. All of those signs additionally apply for SARS-CoV-2.
Did Flu Shots Increase Mortality in Italy?
In a current weblog submit, Dr. Michael Murray discusses the likelihood that seasonal influenza vaccinations might have contributed to the dramatically elevated COVID-19 mortality seen in Italy. He writes:21
“… the usual solutions of an aged inhabitants and the failure to implement social distancing quickly sufficient simply don’t clarify what is going on. My colleague, Dr. Alex Vasquez, supplied me with a beneficial perception.
In September 2019, Italy rolled out a completely new sort of influenza vaccine. This vaccine known as VIQCC is completely different than others. Most obtainable influenza vaccines are produced in embryonated hen eggs. VIQCC, nonetheless, is produced from cultured animal cells relatively than eggs and has extra of a ‘boost’ to the immune system because of this.
VIQCC additionally accommodates 4 sorts of viruses — 2 sort A viruses (H1N1 and H3N2) and a couple of sort B viruses.22 It appears like this ‘super’ vaccine impacted the immune system in such a method to enhance coronavirus an infection by virus interference that set the stage for what occurred in Italy.”
Fast-Tracked COVID-19 Vaccine Plus Flu Vaccine This Season?
Needless to say, there’s additionally no telling what the results may be if persons are vaccinated towards each influenza and SARS-CoV-2 in the identical season. We don’t even know what the ramifications of the SARS-CoV-2 vaccine may be but, though, traditionally, all coronavirus vaccines have resulted in additional devastating illness and elevated threat of dying, as reviewed in my interview with Robert F. Kennedy Jr.
Preliminary outcomes from Moderna’s Phase 1 trial confirmed the vaccine (mRNA-1273) prompted systemic unwanted effects in 80% of contributors receiving the 100 microgram (mcg) dose.23,24 Side results ranged from fatigue (80%), chills (80%), headache (60%) and myalgia or muscle ache (53%). After the second dose, 100% of contributors within the 100-mcg group skilled unwanted effects.
This is necessary to notice as, not like the flu vaccine, the coronavirus vaccine can be a minimal of a two-dose routine and almost definitely advisable to be repeated yearly, similar to the flu vaccine.
The 45 volunteers had been divided into three dosage teams — 25 mcg, 100 mcg and 250 mcg — with 15 contributors in every. Even within the low-dose group, one participant (6%) acquired so sick he required emergency medical care. In the high-dose (250 mcg) group, 100% of contributors suffered unwanted effects after each the primary and second doses, and three of the contributors suffered “one or more severe events.”
Keep in thoughts, these had been wholesome people between the ages of 18 and 55,25 who weren’t chubby, had been lifelong nonsmokers with no household historical past of respiratory issues or seizures. People with bronchial asthma, diabetes, rheumatoid arthritis or different autoimmune illnesses had been excluded.
What do you assume may occur when a vaccine that sends completely wholesome people to the hospital is given to the aged and/or individuals with critical well being circumstances? Then, add to that the potential of being extra vulnerable to respiratory diseases attributable to receiving the seasonal flu vaccine. The finish consequence appears fairly apparent, and it’s not going to be a boon to public well being.
I’ve written many articles reviewing the ineffectiveness of flu vaccines, and several other extra on the potential issues dealing with us from fast-tracked mRNA vaccines for COVID-19. Hopefully, sanity and logical considering will sprout earlier than it’s too late, however because it stands proper now, it seems we’re headed towards a public well being catastrophe.
The approach ahead is to ensure we defend our proper to decide on, to choose out, and to battle vaccine mandates wherever they flip up, whatever the vaccine in query, as a result of finally, it’s earlier precedents that enable authorities to proceed mandating ever extra harmful vaccines.
