The Institute of Public Affairs: Australia’s Covid-19 Pandemic Response Failed Us

“Australia must now urgently take stock of the criminalisation of everyday life, the enormous expense, and the future health, education and societal impacts of COVID lockdowns and restrictions,” said Scott Hargreaves, Executive Director of the Institute of Public Affairs.

Today, the IPA launched two ground-breaking research papers on the impact of Australia’s failed response to the COVID-19 pandemic written by Professor Mirko Bagaric and Morgan Begg, Director of the IPA’s Legal Rights Program.

The IPA report, Hard lessons: Reckoning the Economic, Social, and Humanitarian costs of Zero-Covid found:

* The direct economic, fiscal and inflationary cost of pandemic measures stand at $938.4 billion as at the end of the 2021-22 financial year.

* Students have suffered significant setbacks, particularly in Victoria where Year 9 students reading and numeracy skills have fallen behind by 12 weeks and 17 weeks, respectively.

* The costs of joblessness and not working on life expectancy as a result for the first nationwide lockdowns in March and April 2020 were 31 times greater than the maximum possible benefits of all lockdowns.


“There are numerous socio-economic, recreational, lifestyle, and mental health harms caused as a consequence of lockdown measures which have not yet been fully quantified but will be a significant ongoing cost of Australia’s pandemic response,” said Morgan Begg.

The second report The Crime of Criminalising Everyday Life: The Rule of Law Discarded in Victoria’s COVID Response, found;

* More than 50,000 normally law-abiding Victorians were subject to criminal sanctions for breaches of COVID restrictions.

* The criminalisation of the public health response was unworkable as most fines remain unpaid today.


“Imposing criminal sanctions on Victorians for sitting in public places, being out after dark and congregating with more than two people is the greatest overuse of the criminal law in a democracy in recent history,” Professor Mirko Bagaric said.

“The criminal law is society’s harshest form of condemnation and its strongest instrument of coercion. It must only be used as a last resort for serious wrongdoing. Yet the Victorian Government employed it as the main instrument to force compliance with the strictest COVID lockdown in the world.”

“All fines should be cancelled, Victorians should be reimbursed for payments made and laws be reformed to ensure a bureaucrat can no longer unilaterally regulate basic human activity under threat of criminal sanction,” Professor Bagaric said.

Scott Hargreaves has again called for an end to all mandates and a comprehensive Royal Commission into the response of governments at all levels throughout the pandemic.

“Every Australian deserves a full and complete account of what went on during the pandemic. We need a joint Royal Commission including the Commonwealth and State Governments to shed light on what went on behind closed doors and a commitment from all political participants that this never happens again.”

It's still a pandemic *BECAUSE* of the vaccinated.

New South Wales (NSW) revisited.

I’ve made an awful lot of mistakes in my life. But I try to learn from every one of them. For this reason, I keep returning to old models to see how they have fared against the ever-increasing empirical data.

So it is with New South Wales in Australia who are still releasing really useful data which, by-the-by, keeps me minded to believe that most of the people involved in the COVID scam do still honestly believe they are doing the right thing and are on the right side.

Alas, the data doesn’t care about sides or beliefs or anything. It simply exists and is open to interpretation. Whether you trust your own interpretation or someone else’s (including mine) is entirely up to you but here’s how I see it.

1.

Image

No-one really died with/from/of COVID in NSW until 10-Jul-21, one week after the mass mRNA experiment began in earnest. Deaths peaked on 02-Oct-21, one month after the experiment peaked. The similarity in shape of the two distributions is quite apparent with both deaths and jabs ending around the same time at the end of Nov ‘21.

2.

Image

Less than a month later (and in the middle of the Australian summer!), COVID deaths return - and they are three times worse than the previous winter. Coincidentally (or not), people start dying two weeks after the “booster” campaign starts on 11-Dec-21. Although there is some missing data, it looks like jabbing peaks around two weeks before the deaths peak on 29-Jan-22 and again, the similarity between the distributions of jabs and deaths is, well, quite remarkable.

3.

Image

The following winter, COVID deaths emerge again, concomitantly with renewed jabbing. The data isn’t split by dose any more but I think we can assume this is dose 3 and even dose 4 for the really keen? Similar patterns of deaths coinciding with jabs with the former peaking on 06-Aug-22, two weeks after peek jabbing.

*****************************************************

So… so far, so many coincidences. But, I have always maintained that if every death was properly recorded with jab status, we could have gotten to a conclusive position on jab-related mortality a long, long time ago.

NSW started sharing this valuable information in May 2022 and I am really grateful to @LCHF_Matt (Twitter) for painstakingly extracting the data from the weekly surveillance bulletins that NSW public health release in PDF format.

Image

Clearly, there is no difference in COVID death rates according to your jab / no jab status.

However…

Image

It is clear that the 4-jabbers are dying at substantially higher rates than every other dose status. In fact, the entire COVID death distribution in July to Aug 2022 is driven by the 4-jabbers.

Yes, of course, we could explain this away because the 4-jabbers are the oldest, weakest ones so they were more likely to die anyway, right? OK… So, it’s not stopping them from dying though?

*****************************************************

Let’s park it there and conclude that at best, COVID jabs don’t prevent COVID deaths. But what about all those remarkable correlations between jab phases and COVID deaths? Can we dismiss those too? I think we should take a closer look at COVID cases and jabs.

1.

Image

NSW has no COVID until one week after the mass mRNA experiment begins. The rise and fall (the distribution) of COVID cases is pretty much identical to the distribution of jabs.

2.

Image

When NSW’s booster campaign gets under way in Dec ‘21, COVID cases explode - in the middle of summer!!! The scale on the y-axis goes from 12,000 to 350,000! Again, the distributions are remarkably similar.

3.

Image

In winter 2022, COVID’s return is once again preceded by an increase in jabbing.

So, what do we have here?

1. A remarkable capability of the NSW population to consistently anticipate the coming of COVID (even completely out of season) and protect themselves with the experimental therapy?

2. A leaky vaccine that suppresses the natural immune defences and facilitates the emergence of immune-escape variants that inevitably result in “COVID deaths”?

My wager is, if the people of NSW stopped injecting themselves with this experimental toxin, their COVID problem will probably stop too.

P.S. If you believe the answer is #2, then it also implies that the jabbed are somewhat responsible for causing the COVID deaths of the unjabbed too. Something more to think about?

Your jab does not protect you but could be killing me.

As more time passes, examples such as the below grotesque display become more inexplicable and vile. Truly, this video encapsulates so much of the last ~2 yrs, literally and metaphorically.

It's been a while since I paid a visit to Rune Soup (in part because I'm generally not a fan of the podcast/'talking' format, which is his default output of late). This, from back in July 2022:

LET’S NEVER DO THIS AGAIN: APOCALYPSE PHARMAKA
Gordon
July 8, 2022

There’s a lot of postmortems of ‘the pandemic’ going on, which I guarantee are premature. Just look at Canada or Victoria. But it certainly does feel like now is a moment for -if not a postmortem- then some kind of coming to account… of one’s own behaviours and certainly the behaviours inflicted on those of us who saw this for what it was either the whole time or eventually. And this is a healing impulse, not an accusatory one. For behold, grandmother speaks:

Ursula K. Le Guin bot
@UrsulaBot

Nobody who says, ‘I told you so’ has ever been, or will ever be, a hero.

5:20 PM · Jun 22, 2022


Like I said, everyone seems to be doing postmortems now and this post isn’t quite that. But it is stuff that needs to be said and needs to be seen and absorbed so we can move forward from here. There are some outcomes, facts and observations that, if you haven’t yet, you need to come to terms with in order to move forward with some semblance of coherence into a world that gets so much worse before it gets better. Your life is quite literally on the line with this stuff.

If you’re not an OG, you may be unaware that Apocalypse Pharmaka was my personal favourite series back in the heyday of blogging, as described in this solo show. And then we had/have a pharma apocalypse that hit all the high points of that particular series around the ghastly, corrupt nature of big pharma, so-called ‘alternative’ health, proper nutrition and so on. And through the last couple of years I’ve wanted to pick the series up again, but that feeling was tempered by the realisation that the open internet doesn’t deserve rights and the amount of mischaracterisation and slander from the absolute shit-for-brains, head-flapping morons promoting this biofascist op was exhausting enough.

That’s quieted down these past four months as reality has finally set in for more and more people, as predicted by Dr Matthias Desmet. I’m going to end this post with a gathering up of the jewels -of the things I am actually grateful for over those two absolute worst years of my life- but one of the main ones is discovering Matthias Desmet and the concept of mass formation last year. I almost cried when I did because here, at last, was maybe a framework of understanding but definitely a map back to forgiveness and an empowerment of quiet, individual acts of rational pushback and resistance.

...

Image
Image

So we’re well and truly into the second phase of mass formation but as Dr Desmet points out in his excellent new book, The Psychology of Totalitarianism, if the underlying conditions of anxiety, isolation, loneliness and meaninglessness that contribute to the mass forming in the first place aren’t addressed, it will just happen with the next stupid thing. (Which I feared would be Ukraine but even the mass formed worked out the neocon narrative was war mongering western imperialism eventually. That was ‘mere’ bloodlust whipped up by the state and if you fell for it think on your sins.)

It’s this feeling of being in that second phase that people have mistaken for the pandemic narrative being ‘over’. It isn’t but this moment is still a powerful time for consideration –which literally means ‘to observe the stars’. There’s a couple of postmortem/consideration/discussions I want to share before sharing my own. The first is Dr Desmet’s best interview ostensibly about his latest book, with James Corbett.

...

The next is a discussion with Charles Eisenstein in which, among other great points, he describes the ideology of progress and how it built the dimensions of this idiocy, which allowed for the mass to form.

He also talks about his experience being attacked and deplatformed for his ethical, considered and well-researched positions on the pandemic narrative. There’s a lot in there I connected with on a meaningful basis. It wasn’t pleasant. And that has led to a nascent series on his substack about how those of us who were so mistreated heal, forgive and move forward.

https://charleseisenstein.substack.com/ ... nia-part-1

One of the main themes in the comments was betrayal and a shattering of trust. Many people are asking, Do we just forgive and forget and go back to normal? One commenter put it like this:

How do we move on with these people, some of them cherished friends and community members, in a way that honors and respects the pain, anger, anxiety, etc that went with being excluded or shut down or simply disengaged with as a result of our (courageous) positions taken over the last two years?

I imagine that people on the other side of the issue might express a similar sentiment. They might say, “How do we move on with these people who flouted the advice of the best experts, ignored the consensus science, tried to enroll us in their dangerous conspiracy theories, and thus put us all at risk?”

There is, however, a profound asymmetry between the two sides. One side experienced ostracism, censorship, cancellation, loss of jobs, loss of licenses, and exclusion from public spaces, while the other did not.

It is tempting just to let everyone forget the whole thing. To let people forget that they excluded, denounced, canceled, censored, and ostracized us. I am willing to let bygones be bygones, except for one thing: How are we to know it won’t happen again? Partly it’s a matter of PTSD: I don’t feel very safe among these people. But more important than my own comfort or safety is what kind of world my descendants will live in.

Imagine you live with an alcoholic spouse. He goes on a bender and subjects you to all kinds of abuse: yells at you, shames you, locks you out of the house. The next day he wakes up sober and wants to pretend it never happened. The invitation to return to normalcy is strong. But with no change to the conditions behind the alcoholism, without even an apology that recognizes harm was done, you will probably not fully trust the durability of the return to normal.


I have been sitting with the tension between forgiving and forgetting. Actually, I have little problem with the forgiving… or at least the releasing. Excepting the financially-motivated, jealous and vicious little hypocritical bullies I’ve had to deal with, the rest I have been able to understand thanks to the mass formation framework. But Charles is right about the forgetting. That’s harder to do after two years of continuous assault.

It’s not just ‘my’ side though. There are also people who are feeling guilty or sheepish about their behaviour and treatment of others these past few years -a minority of the floating 40% but there nonetheless. Both groups need to release the trapped energy around certain facts and realities so that we can move forward individually -because if you don’t do the inner work you will fall for this shit again- and as a hopefully larger and more diverse group moving into the future.

As far as I can tell, there are two steps to this process.

- A coming to terms with the reality of what we know happened.

- A ‘gathering up of the jewels’ -a finding of the things for which you are grateful that came out of this whole ordeal- which can only happen once you have accomplished step one and seen clearly.

If you’re tempted to quibble with any of these, just don’t. I mean it. If any of these irritate you, then follow that irritation to whatever fear-based story you are clinging to in a failed attempt at sense making. There’s abundant supporting material in the premium members area (because the open internet still kinda doesn’t deserve rights). But as best as I can tell, this is the minimum number of points of agreement you need to begin jewel gathering. Yes there are other things that turned out to be correct, the lab leak, the deliberate attack on the writers of the Great Barrington Declaration, Pfizer hiding the true safety data, and all the rest of it. This isn’t a grudge list, it’s a list of points of consensus and, almost by definition, needs to be small rather than exhaustive.

- Even Bill Gates itself came out recently and said this was only dangerous in high risk groups, kind of like the flu “but a bit different”. (He didn’t elaborate on the difference.) Simply put, the average age of death from this illness was above the average age of death from all causes.

- It follows that it was never a dangerous, indiscriminate killer and we knew that from Italy in March of 2020. We also new the 99.8% untreated recovery rate from that time, too.

- Untreated is key. Because the shit take that “0.2% is still a lot of people”. Yeah, doctor genius, it is. So maybe we should have tried something other than Tylenol and then blowing up lungs with ventilators when the patient couldn’t breathe? You must understand that treatments that actually work were deliberately suppressed.

- The follow on from that is it means we don’t know how many people died of this and never will. As Denis Rancourt points out in his brilliant analysis of all cause mortality from 2020 to 2021, if we had just treated the elderly as if they had bacterial pneumonia -who symptoms are identical but who were all diagnosed with covid 19- there is no telling how many we would have saved. But doctors were literally forbidden from treating with things that might work. You cannot know how many people died of this and how many were murdered by the fascist combination of state power working for pharma profits.

- Everything sort of swings on the next bullet point. People need to detach the fact that some people in at-risk groups died -true- with the draconian and idiotic non-pharmaceutical interventions of masks and lockdowns. They did nothing beneficial and the data are clear on that. It’s like saying “but Gordon of course you should have worn a tutu and a snorkel for two years. People are dying from this thing!” Yes they are. Perhaps we should have tried something efficacious instead?

- Masks and lockdowns damaged and destroyed millions of lives including my own and saved none. The Great Barrington Declaration was correct about how we should have treated this. This is the most pernicious knot that people need to untie in their own minds, and it’s either because they don’t want to admit to themselves how much of their lives were taken from them, or they’re guilty about Karen-ing everyone around them. It doesn’t matter. The data are in. Absorb them. Millions of children have been permanently damaged by this and for no good reason. That’s on all our souls now. When they try it again -for ‘climate change’ or whatever- be on the side of life this time. I beg you.

- The injections do nothing good and everything bad, and were lied into global use and then bullied into arms (and are still not approved). These are the deadliest medications ever released in history by orders of magnitude and they’ve only been out for about a year, that’s based only on reported numbers -which means they’re likely just getting warmed up. Recent polls suggest twice as many US households have lost someone to a vaccine death than covid.

- The more of them you take, the more likely it is you will die of everything. The hospitals are filling back up with the most injected and that’s just the cold hard numbers. (The good news side of this is if you stop taking them and focus on serious detox, things look up.)

- All cause mortality is now steeply up in the age cohorts that were not at risk for covid but are now overwhelmingly injected. In the US, working age all cause mortality is up 40%.

- Long covid doesn’t exist. Which isn’t to say that people aren’t suffering from the long term consequences of this nightmare in its totality. I certainly am, and it’s why I’m on month four of my global healing journey. But the combination of fear, isolation, dangerous new technologies injected into us, lack of exercise, lack of sunlight, lack of touch, lack of togetherness, breathing impairment, anxiety and stress and constant fearporn certainly adds up, regardless of whether you had an influenza-like illness in the past two years. Long covid doesn’t appear to exist but long pandemic narrative certainly does. I mention this as a bullet point you need to absorb because there is always some fucking Einstein who looks at the numbers on the recovery rate and says “buh buh buh long covid. That’s why we needed to destroy all small businesses, bring racial segregation back to New York and guarantee the collapse of western civilisation.” No, Karen. Just no. We could just try healing and compassion, rather than arbitrary violence on the innocent.

These are all simply, scientifically, coldly true statements. If any of them irritate you, follow that irritation like it’s a gay little white rabbit.

PREVIOUSLY NON-CONTROVERSIAL HEALING ADVICE

None of the following points were controversial before March 2020. Even blue checks would nod along with them. And really, this is why this is an Apocalypse Pharmaka post. Because all the modalities and techniques that actually do offer healing were banned and ridiculed. But they are still true today. They were true through this whole thing, regardless of the toxicity and isolation that their proponents had to endure.

- Fear is immunosuppressive to the tune of about 50%. And yet how would you characterise the messaging you endured?

- Anxiety and stress keep you in a sympathetic state which can literally kill you over time. That’s basically what happened to me. Again, how would you characterise the messaging from our ‘health czars’ over those two years?

- Sunlight isn’t just a source of vitamin D, it is powerfully, transformationally healing in ways that will likely always be uncountable. Without it, you die. (Sunscreen is deadly, by the way. But that’s a separate post.)

- Human togetherness, human singing, human touch, seeing faces. These are all essential for parasympathetic tone and overall health. Without them, we die. (Remember when singing over Zoom was banned? Trust the science, babes.)

- Even if viruses do exist and are disease causing -something I tend to believe only on even days- terrain theory/functional medicine is still the best and most empowering treatment and prevention. This is crucial to understand. Operating from a terrain theory perspective will lead to faster and better overall health outcomes than the big pharma version of germ theory. And the whole healing cornucopia opens up to you immediately when you do, regardless of your location or circumstances.

Here’s my commitment to you. As always I will never lie to you, and that includes lies of omission due to fear or cowardice. These are the data and outcomes as best as I can find them, without moderation from fear or the need for approval. See if you can get the same commitment from the people who have slandered and misrepresented me over the past two years for standing up for these realities instead of loudly and wrongly submitting and supporting this government-corporate biotyranny. I was planning on sharing a list of names and calling these allegedly ‘magical’ frauds out in public, but grandmother bot’s tweet above prevents me. (It’s not like she’s wrong, either. She’s never wrong.)

But I share this commitment because I want to share more Apocalypse Pharmaka material moving forward. This post and this little declaration is warranted before I do. Because it ends up in strange and transformational places that will require a modicum of trust on your part.

[Not fully sold on "mass formation", at least not as the only factor. I do believe there were absolutely elements of 'mass formation' in play for portions of the population, for a period of time, but as with most things out in the wild, there are compounding/myriad factors involved in collective agreements, wide-scale]

@bobscartoons

If it's all about money, why go out of their way to make the shots so dangerous? Why make anything at all? They could have loaded every syringe with something totally benign, produced all the same garbage data 'proving' efficacy, and made just as much money.

It takes many months (at bare minimum) to wake up to what is really going on. It's not something that happens overnight. The reality of it all is so sinister that most people cannot believe it. Alternatively, it is so painful that most people don't even want to know about it.

Agree with you normally, though in this instance they had to fill it with something new or they couldn't have pushed the story, Coronaviruses have proven impervious to previous decades of vaccine research.
Once the people involved realised how much they could make from this then all morals evaporated, it's a simple case of follow the (vast piles of) money.

All they had to do to prove it was 'working' was change the way deaths were being recorded and reduce the number of tests. So no, there didn't need to be anything functional in the shots to push the story.

https://twitter.com/bobscartoons/status ... rjYSceFryA

The above doesn't touch on a premise/theory that, at least for certain regions in the U.S., there appeared to be vaccine deployment 'lots' that had much less prevalence of adverse reactions (mostly in blue states), which may be tied to higher volume of saline/placebo doses. Regions with higher side affects/adverse reactions may have had different/more harmful formulations, etc.

The pattern and frequency of adverse events suggest these variances can not reliably be tied to "chance".

Ethical Skeptic delves into this in some detail.

https://www.conservativereview.com/horo ... 84488.html

“In summary, we have highlighted the pitfalls of having considered until now COVID-19 mRNA vaccines as just conventional vaccines, and we have indicated the preclinical, clinical and post-marketing safety assessments that are most urgently needed. COVID-19 mRNA vaccines are actually pharmaceutical drugs, and consequently their pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics, and possibly also their pharmacogenetics, must be properly characterized to provide a solid background of knowledge for their rational and targeted use, thus stopping ‘playing dice’ with these products due to the misbelief that the same vaccine at the same dose is good for everyone, and that adverse effects occur just by chance.”


Those were the words of Italian researchers in a recent pharmacological analysis of the COVID shots published in the International Journal of Molecular Sciences nearly two years after these products were foisted upon 5.35 billion human beings – often multiple times – under the false pretense of the jabs acting like vaccines. Who will be held accountable?

Every day, news pours out about the lack of safety and ineffectiveness of the shots, but they fail to move the needle on policy. It is unclear what it will take to get these biological agents pulled from the market, but here are some of the most recent bombshells proving the shots are extremely unsafe and ineffective:

Autopsy shows extensive brain and heart damage

Nearly two years into this mass genocide, global governments have refused to conduct widespread autopsies on those who died suddenly shortly after getting the shots. They have also rebuffed calls to release the data and analysis on those autopsies they did conduct. One can only imagine what we would learn about the extent of the danger, but now we have a glimpse from an autopsy of a 76-year-old man with Parkinson’s disease who died three weeks after receiving a third dose. The case study published by German pathologists in the prestigious journal “Vaccines” found severe inflammation in the brain tissue and heart attributable to the shots.

The pathologists used immunohistochemistry, which utilizes staining techniques to light up only specific antigens, in this case only the spike protein native to the shots, not the nucleocapsid protein from the virus. What did they find?

“However, histopathological analyses of the brain uncovered previously unsuspected findings, including acute vasculitis (predominantly lymphocytic) as well as multifocal necrotizing encephalitis of unknown etiology with pronounced inflammation including glial and lymphocytic reaction. In the heart, signs of chronic cardiomyopathy as well as mild acute lympho-histiocytic myocarditis and vasculitis were present” (emphasis added).

Importantly, they only found spike antibodies without any nucleocapsid antibodies, meaning that this individual was only exposed to the shots, not to the actual virus. Until now, many pharma apologists blamed the rash of sudden encephalitis and myocarditis cases on the virus, but as the authors note, “The findings corroborate previous reports of encephalitis and myocarditis caused by gene-based COVID-19 vaccines.”

Although he died following his third shot in December 2021, interestingly, the man already “experienced pronounced cardiovascular side effects, for which he repeatedly had to consult his doctor,” after his first shot (AstraZeneca) in May 2021 and “increased anxiety, lethargy, and social withdrawal” after his second shot (Pfizer) in July 2021. He seemed to decline rapidly even before the third shot, suffering “severe motor impairment and a recurrent need for wheelchair support.” The man in the study “never fully recovered” from the shots by the time he got his booster in December.

Two weeks after the third vaccination, he “suddenly collapsed while eating dinner” without “coughing or any signs of food aspiration.” If not for his family paying for an autopsy, we would not have this information about a cause of death that likely occurred in countless thousands of other young and old vaccinated people.

With findings like this, how can every case of a sudden death post-vaccination not be immediately investigated with pathology to determine if this phenomenon is occurring in a significant portion of the population? Where is the emergency to get ahead of this and detect, diagnose, and treat people before it’s too late? After all, only 5.3 billion people are potentially affected.

Negative efficacy galore

Imagine engaging in societal apartheid and persecuting those who didn’t get the jabs on the assumption that they are spreaders of disease but then discovering that, in fact, the opposite is true? I’ve been reporting on negative efficacy for over a year already, but now we have a Kaiser Permanganate study that shows negative efficacy of the shots against all variants within 150 days. And this study shows the more you inject, the more you infect; specifically, over time, those with three doses fare worse than those with two.

The American Association of Physicians and Surgeons posted a Twitter thread with numerous studies published throughout the past year showing a similar trend of negative efficacy resulting from the shots.

One of the likely culprits for negative efficacy is that the shots prime the body to respond to a version of the virus that has long since changed, thereby making the natural immune response misfire. Supporters of endless jabs will suggest that this is why they created the new bivalent shot for BA.5 (the one that was studied in eight mice and no humans). However, an entirely new variant is already surging, rendering this shot just as irrelevant and likely counterproductive. According to the CDC, BA.4.6 now represents 13% of all COVID-19 cases and is rising sharply, with some other variants breaking out as well.

Negative efficacy even against death

Well, at least the shots still work against critical illness, right? Wrong! Deaths have largely plummeted across all groups given that Omicron is not nearly as pathogenic as the previous versions of the virus, but data continues to show the overwhelming number of deaths to be among the vaccinated. It turns out that in the month of June, 92% of all COVID deaths in Canada were among the vaccinated, even though they composed a slightly smaller share of the population (85%). Even more telling is the fact that 81% of the deaths were among those who had three or more doses, even though those individuals only account for 34% of the population.

Neonatal deaths

Remember when Scotland suffered a sudden rash of neonatal deaths last September? At the time, 21 newborns had died in a month, triggering an investigation because the numbers rose above an upper control limit for the first time in four years. Neonatal deaths hit 4.9 per 1,000 live births, on a par with levels that were last seen in the late 1980s. This was an astounding phenomenon, yet the investigation yielded no cause other than disproving COVID as a culprit. But notice that the COVID shots were never investigated. Well, now the data is triggering another investigation, as at least 18 newborns died within four weeks of birth during the month of March 2022, the equivalent of 4.6 per 1,000 births. Here is the trend line from Public Health Scotland:

Notice the spikes above baseline beginning right around the beginning of 2021 and accelerating in two peaks later on. What major biological product was mass-distributed around that time? Obviously this alone doesn’t prove any causation, but the fact that we know the spike protein goes into the reproductive system and breast milk, menstrual irregularities are ubiquitous, so many countries are experiencing record low birth rates around the same time, and these shots are otherwise extremely inflammatory in the adult population, wouldn’t you think there would be some interest in investigating the shots as a potential suspect?

Just how bad are the menstrual and gynecological problems? One recent survey of 6,049 women from May 16, 2021, through December 31, 2021, right after most young women got the shot, found 292, or 4.8%, of the respondents self-reported a case of decidual cast shedding (DCS). DCS is a rare gynecological disorder in which a woman sheds her entire uterine lining intact through the vaginal canal as if she were having menstrual bleeding. It is so rare that the authors of this paper could only find 40 documented cases in 109 years.

It’s not like the government doesn’t have blaring and glaring safety signals on reproductive health, either. As of late September, there were 5,055 miscarriages reported to VAERS and 11,598 instances of vaginal/uterine hemorrhaging. Remember, miscarriages are extremely hard to pin on the vaccine, so the fact that so many felt they could report it demonstrates there is likely a woeful underreporting rate. While none of this directly proves the shots are primarily responsible for the neonatal deaths, it would be ludicrous not to carefully investigate them as a culprit.

Other countries experienced this problem as well. In Iceland, deaths among infants doubled in 2021 from the baseline level of the preceding nine years. Several Israeli hospitals saw similar trends in stillbirths and miscarriages.

Adverse events in nursing babies

We already know that the therapeutic can pass through the mother’s milk from lactating women who get the shots. Now, a new study published in JAMA, which was bizarrely designed to make the shots look safe, actually reveals that 3.5% of the women reported a decrease in breast milk supply and 1.2% reported “issues with their breastmilk-fed infant after vaccination.” They decline to describe the nature of those issues, but the fact that they can so casually report this as if these numbers are good news is shocking.

Keep in mind that the swine flu vaccine was pulled from the market in 1976 after 1 in 100,000 experienced Guillain-Barre syndrome. The fact that these shots could be forced down people’s throats, including pregnant and nursing women, after such relatively high percentages of adverse events defies logic.

Yet it’s now clear the medical community and the government knew this shot was problematic from day one. Already in early February 2021, a local Fox affiliate in Salt Lake City reported that the Society of Breast Imaging rolled out a new protocol for women to wait for mammograms after getting the shots after they discovered 11% of those who got Moderna’s first dose and 16% after the second dose experienced inflamed lymph nodes. They knew such a high percentage of hyperinflammation is abnormal and portends trouble, particularly for breast cancer and lymphoma, yet they simply pushed off mammograms rather than raising the alarm about the cause of the inflammation.

No wonder the Pfizer CEO declined to appear before an EU parliamentary hearing on the shots. There’s an endless litany of crimes against humanity he must answer for. But what is our excuse for not holding all the people in government and medicine accountable in the U.S.? One could have feigned ignorance in early 2021, but now we are light-years past the threshold for willful misconduct. How much longer will we allow the government to “roll the dice” with the lives of all humanity and even their future offspring?

Towards ‘Yom Kippur’ - An Israeli physician-scientist on the response of society to the Sars-cov-2 pandemic

Raya Leibowitz, MD/PhD; Shamir medical center, Be’er Yaakov; Faculty of Medicine, Tel-Aviv University, Tel-Aviv; Israel. rayal@shamir.gov.il

I am writing so not to forget the response of governments and societies to the COVID-19 pandemic over the last 2.5 years; responses that were, for me and many others, dystopian. During this time, Israeli society, as I knew it, has dramatically changed for the worse.

It is now October 2022, just before the Jewish day of atonement (‘Yom Kippur’), which is a time of self-reflection on one’s deeds, a time of admissions of one’s mistakes, errors and faults. It's time to take stock of what we have done.

I am an Israeli medical oncologist, a scientist (MD/PhD) and the head of a medium-sized oncology institute in Israel. Needless to say, I am an integral part of the medical system. My kids and I are vaccinated with all routine childhood immunizations.

Israel has been globally renowned for its leading role in the vaccine roll-out; yet many considerations are not widely known. The views presented in this essay are my own, and do not represent my hospital, the university to which I am affiliated, or the Israeli ministry of health, my employer.

In March 2020, when the WHO declared that the infection-fatality rate (IFR) of the covid-19 virus was 3.4%, I first realized there was a huge mistake. Together with a few scientists and medical doctors in Israel, we felt that COVID-19 is a respiratory virus with a sinusoidal appearance and an IFR that was slightly higher than influenza (but NOT by orders of magnitude higher), and that its' violence is exponentially associated with older age. I wrote my first assay in the public press back in March 2020, entitled ‘the virus may disappear, but with it - so will our democracy and economy’.

Unfortunately, my words had no impact. The media in Israel (like many other countries) was filled with horrifying clips of body bags from Italy, of field hospitals in New York, of Chinese people collapsing and dying in the streets in midday. Israeli scientists, many without any appropriate qualifications, predicted dozens of thousands of deaths in our small country, Israeli doctors were terrified. The Ministry of Health in Israel, politicians and the media allowed no room for questioning these prophecies, there was only one narrative.

We – a small group of Israeli doctors and physicians, like similar groups across the world – thought from the start that not only are lockdowns not efficient in combating this virus, but that their harms will eventually significantly outweigh any potential benefit. We suggested differential protection measurements, based on age and risk factors, realizing early on the that this virus could not be eliminated. We were ridiculed or ignored.

In November 2020 we appeared in a documentary movie entitled ‘and what if most of the world is wrong’, in which we stated our views on lockdowns. We were publicly shamed for being ‘grandma killers’. We were dubbed ‘covid deniers’, with a clear reference to ‘holocaust deniers’ (which, in Israel, is naturally a terrible connotation).


Towards the end of 2020, the global narrative had become unanimous – only a vaccine can save the world from extinction. This narrative scared me from its onset. As a medical oncologist, I am only too aware of the huge influence that the pharmaceutical industry has on our practice, many using bias and spin to promote new drugs or technologies with only marginal benefits. I therefore read the Pfizer vaccine paper, published in the NEJM in December 2020, meticulously, and thus immediately realized that the pivotal trial was never designed – nor did it demonstrate – that the vaccine prevented infection or transmission of the virus. I contacted Pfizer in Israel, that indeed confirmed that there was no prospective data to suggest that it does.

In a few weeks, the vaccine campaign in Israel expanded from the high risk population of older people to the entire over 18 population. Key opinion leaders, from within and outside the medical profession, celebrities, politicians and media figures engaged in convincing the public to ‘run and get vaccinated’. Any hesitance was met with shaming and vicious attacks over social media, professional forums and associations.

I don’t exactly remember when we first realized that Israel was ‘the experimental country’ of the Pfizer vaccine. Almost all of the contracts and agreements between Pfizer and the Israeli government were kept confidential and not exposed to the public. On the other hand, as a practicing physician, I knew from ‘day one’ that there wasn’t a good and reliable way to report adverse events in Israel during the vaccine roll-out throughout 2021. This was troubling but was not discussed in any forum, nor was it bought to the knowledge of the public.

The beginning of 2021 brought about a sense of euphoria in Israel – the common notion was that soon all we be vaccinated and the pandemic will be over. I, on the other hand, became increasingly worried.

Then, starting March 2021, large retrospective trials (both Israeli and from other countries) were published in the best medical journals, demonstrating that the vaccine is associated with reduced hospitalization and covid-related deaths. The data from these analyses were also used to make the assertion that the vaccine prevents viral infection and transmission, despite these trials being inherently and inevitably biased, as the subjects in these types of analyses were not randomly assigned to the intervention, and the follow-up time was short. It was also unknown if the vaccine would protect against escape variants. These limitations were acknowledged by the authors of the trials within the academic publications, but this was not relayed in the lay press (even not by the authors themselves), and so the public, the politicians and the press were led to believe that there is a significant altruistic value in taking the vaccine. This brought about the notion that those who decided – for whatever reason – not to take the vaccine, are egoistic, or crazy, or both.

In parallel with the vaccine roll-out, people – normative people, from all from all walks of life– started to report all types of adverse events. These people were not listened to, their complaints were often not documented or investigated, and they were commonly perceived as ‘hysterical’ or even as having a ‘mental’ issue. Troubling anecdotes and signals continue to resonate (or, shall I say – continue to be whispered), yet it is still considered almost a taboo to be asking whether vaccinating at any age for any amount of boosters was, indeed, a medically correct policy. Any query of this sort immediately tags one as a conspirator.

Towards spring 2021, an Israeli group reported upon an emerging, previously unknown, adverse event of myocarditis in young men. Indeed, the FDA recognized the need to further investigate this signal, yet vaccine roll-out and ‘boostering’ within the younger age group continued uninterrupted. The policy of repeated booster shots in young healthy adults has only recently (i.e. in late 2022) been re-evaluated and challenged, and only in a few countries by now (Israel not being one of them).

Around March 2021, the ‘green pass’ was first introduced as a public policy intervention– namely, that the ability to move freely, work and study will be dependent on one’s COVID vaccination status. What was astonishing - and ever so disappointing to me – was that this idea was accepted almost unanimously, without any debate, without any question as to its medical justification or ethical validity. It was accepted across the board by scientists and doctors who were not well-acquainted with the details of the clinical trials or with the complexities of retrospective clinical research. It was accepted after merely a short time following vaccine administration and without any long-term follow-up of either vaccine side-effects nor effectiveness. Scientists, doctors, engineers, philosophers, artists, journalists, historians, judges and politicians hardly challenged its justification or validity. The university in which I am faculty, for instance, accepted the premise of the ‘green pass’ without any questioning; without performing even one seminar or colloquium to discuss it.

Despite being vaccinated and eligible to receive a ‘green pass’ (I decided, as a 47-year old woman with risk factors, to take the first 2 vaccine shots in April 2021), I decided not to collaborate with it, as I was convinced it is ethically and medically wrong. I also felt that my medical record and personal health choices were solely my own, not feeling compelled to report such personal information to 20-year-olds at entrances to restaurants or theaters. I decided not to receive a booster after considering my risk.

Life then became very hard for me. I was banned from all types of cultural activities. I could not fly. I was asked by my managers in the hospital not to talk about my views. Moreover, I became estranged to my family, my friends, my medical community, my political camp – all because I did not accept the common narrative; all because I kept asking questions.

In June 2021, and not surprisingly to me, a new wave of infection appeared, starting mainly in the vaccinated population. Naively, I was now certain that the huge mistake – namely, that the vaccine halts transmission and can eliminate the virus – will be realized, and hence it will finally be acknowledged that vaccine uptake should only be voluntary, by people who so chose after informed consent. Indeed, I was naïve, as the narrative has quickly changed to ‘turns out we need 3 shots, and not two’, but the logic of the green pass not only prevailed, but that sentiment towards those who decided not to further take up the vaccine, for whatever reason (prior infection, prior side effects, lack of will, loss of trust), became even harsher. The definition of being ‘fully vaccinated’ changed within a week, and people, at any age, were coerced to take a booster shot on which no randomized safety data was available, lest they lose their jobs or their ability to study or move about freely.

The fall of 2021 was, to me, dystopian – doctors were saying things such as ‘we have no compassion for the unvaccinated’, and this seemed acceptable to most. The public sentiment towards unvaccinated was no less than violent. It seemed like a competition was taking place as to who would call the unvaccinated more horrific names. Our prime minister called upon parents to fight among themselves in schools in order to push kids and teenagers to take the vaccine. I felt ashamed to be an Israeli doctor and citizen in such a toxic environment. Society, to me, became inhumane.

Surely I was not entirely alone; From ‘ear to mouth’, we found more than a hundred doctors who felt the same, and formed a group called ‘there is a different way’. We started publishing public manifests, we approached the ministry of health and the government several times; we started appearing – insofar as was possible (which was, alas, very little) – in the public media. We were collectively designated ‘anti-vaxxers’ (albeit all being certified practicing physicians). Despite many attempts, we were refused any type of academic or public debate. We were constantly ridiculed and shamed. Again, we were accused by some of ‘killing people’.

I personally felt uneasy in clinic, felt uncomfortable to walk about in the hospital. I felt unsafe, as if any day I might be persecuted for my opinions, which – right or wrong – were based on my careful reading and interpretation of the scientific literature and on my long discussions with my colleagues. I was truly scared I would be fired for my views. My family did not get me. My friends did not get me. My colleagues thought I lost my mind. I could not enter my university campus.

Many more things occurred since –publication of randomized trials of the vaccine in decreasing age groups, with disappointing or clinically-meaningless endpoints that served as a basis for further vaccine recommendations and roll-out; publication of many more biased or flawed retrospective trials; an explosion of bad or insignificant science; a fourth, and now firth, shot without any safety data to inform decision; and importantly, no clear proof that the vaccine saves lives (i.e., decreases all-cause mortality), with excess all-cause mortality being, in 2022, higher than ever before, including the pre-vax pandemic year of 2020.

Currently – autumn of 2022 - it seems like at least in most countries, and at least to some extent, it is now realized that the Sars-cov-2 virus is here to stay, is predicted to continue to cause morbidity and mortality (almost exclusively in elderly and frail), and must be dealt with without harming society or our future generations. Similarly, albeit as a slower pace, it is becoming accepted that the mRNA vaccine – like any other form of medical intervention –has a therapeutic range and must have an indication and a target population, and that it has – again, like any other intervention – a ‘price’ in terms of side effects (and also – alas – a price).

Notwithstanding the importance of this realization – better late than never, I guess – it is still important to study and analyze what went so terribly wrong in the response of society to the pandemic, so that such processes never ever happen again.

‘Yom kippur’ of 2022 may be a good time to start.

The College of Physicians and Surgeons in Ontario is telling doctors to prescribe drugs or refer patients to a psychiatrist if they don’t want the vaccine. This is horrific. Yet another reason for lowered trust in our health care system.
