Coffee & Covid ☙ Monday, May 2, 2022 ☙ HARMS ROUNDUP
A roundup of the latest theories on the mechanisms of jab injury.

Jeff Childers

Yesterday, on The Epoch Times I listened to a long-form interview with Dr. Richard Urso, who is becoming one of the leading voices of pandemic-response reason along with Dr. Peter McCullough. The (real) science is slowly but surely beginning to accumulate and reveal the mechanisms of injury caused by the artificial spike protein injections. I thought I’d write up a quick summary of what we know so far. With links!

Italian Court Rules Mandatory Vaccination Unconstitutional, 'Fatal Side Effects' too Risky

Sicily’s Court of Administrative Justice has ruled that Italy’s mandatory Covid vaccination obligation is unconstitutional. The court stated that the experimental mRNA treatments intended to protect the public from Covid have been shown to cause “serious or fatal adverse effects.” The court explains that even if such fatalities are rare, a single death is enough to render the mandate unconstitutional.

The Sicilian ruling passes the decision to the Constitutional Court, which will now have to rule on the issue.

agreed

its a flu shot, always has been

recall that when people were pointing out that vaccines didn't need 3 boosters in 8 months, and real vaccines protected you from getting and spreading the disease, the CDC changed the definition of vaccine

people like Fauci and his minions are far more dangerous and devastating than the covid

Drug Cartel: Pfizer scores record profits via taxpayer funnel, on track for $100 billion in 2022 revenue

Most of Pfizer's revenue comes via taxpayers subsidizing their junk products.

Jordan Schachtel

The criminals and quacks who run Pfizer are getting filthy rich through the sale of their mRNA injection to governments, which, since 2020, have used taxpayer funds to place endless purchase orders for what was once described as a cure to the novel coronavirus, but is now quite clearly a failed product.

Pfizer posted a sharp rise in revenue for the first quarter, thanks largely to its Covid-19 vaccine.
Pfizer Earnings and Revenue Soundly Beat EstimatesPfizer posted a sharp rise in revenue for the first quarter, thanks largely to its Covid-19 vaccine.on.barrons.com

In a stunning earnings report published Tuesday, Pfizer announced they had logged $26 billion in Q1 sales, marking a quarterly profit of $7.86 billion. Revenue went up 77% while profit was up 61%. The company is on track to bring in over $100 billion in revenue and $32 billion in net income this year, and the vast majority of cash is coming from the American taxpayer and other government “customers” via their taxpayers, who have virtually no say in the matter.

Pfizer just posted a profit of $7.86 billion in Quarter 1.

That's not revenue. That's PROFIT.
It seems like the only thing being boosted is revenue.

Pfizer cuts 2022 earnings outlook despite strong first-quarter Covid vaccine and antiviral salesPfizer said it sold $13.2 billion of its Covid vaccine and $1.5 billion of its antiviral treatment Paxlovid.cnbc.com

More than half of their revenue ($13.2 billion) came from sales of their COVID “vaccine,” which has produced no actual demand in a consumer market. Another $1.5 billion came in sales of its oral COVID treatment Paxlovid, another product that is being financed entirely by governments.

Pfizer Q1 profit, revenue soar on COVID-19 vaccine sales

It’s an impressive haul for a company that made most of its money off of a once-claimed immunizing “vaccine” — the mRNA COVID shot — that doesn’t currently work. Most countries are now on shot 4 of the Pfizer “miracle cure.”

The mRNA injection, branded as Comirnaty, has never been reformulated. It was designed in January of 2020 for an early strain that was reported out of Wuhan, China. That strain has not been identified in any human beings for about two years.

Sunday’s White House Correspondents’ Dinner has turned into a super spreader event, according to various media reports.

ABC’s Chief Serial Liar Jonathan Karl has tested positive for the China Flu and Karl shook hands with Biden. Currently he’s in isolation and going through contact tracing. Yeah, considering the hundreds and hundreds of unmasked assholes that sat shoulder-to-shoulder for all those hours, the results should be interesting.

“In the days since WHCD weekend, reporters and staffers from CNN, ABC News, NBC News, CBS News, Politico, and other participating news organizations have tested positive for the virus,” reports CNN, a far-left propaganda outlet that spreads conspiracy theories and violence.

Steven Portnoy, president of the White House Correspondents’ Association, said in a statement Tuesday, “We worked hard to publicize our protocols and encouraged those eligible to get booster shots in the weeks leading up to the dinner.”

“Our event implemented protocols that went beyond any guidance or regulation issued by the (US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention) or the DC health department. We wish anyone who may not be feeling well a speedy recovery,” he added.

The CDC is suing to force airline passengers to wear masks. Commercial airplanes have amazing filters that filter out things like viruses. Hotel ballrooms do not have filters that filter out things like viruses. Nevertheless, these godless liars who call themselves “journalists” never stopped to ask, Well, gee, if the CDC wants airlines masks, but says we’re okay…? Hmmm? You know, maybe I should begin to act like a journalist and ask some questions before we go ahead with what could become a super spreader event.

How fucking stupid are these people? To keep the virus away, all they had to do was promote the event as a Black Lives Matter riot. Don’t they read their own reporting?

At this point some of you might be saying, Well, how do you know it’s a super spreader event? How do you know these people were not infected prior to Sunday night?

They were all tested for the China Flu beforehand. That’s how we know.

Paxlovid, Pfizer’s newest wonder-drug scam seems to be failing spectacularly. What do they do? Instead of halting use under the same bullshit “emergency authorization” that protects Pfizer from liability, they plan to “study why Covid symptoms come roaring back” after use of this garbage. How can anyone take this or get jabbed with all the clear evidence that the snake oil is harming people? Lunacy.

https://www.webmd.com/lung/cor...us-incubation-period

April 29, 2022 -- U.S. researchers are planning to study how often and why coronavirus levels come back for some COVID-19 patients who take Pfizer’s Paxlovid drug, according to Bloomberg News.

The CDC and the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases are considering a variety of epidemiological and clinical studies to examine potential relapses after the five-day antiviral treatment, including which patients face higher risks and whether it can be avoided with a longer course of treatment.

“It is a priority,” Clifford Lane, MD, the institute’s deputy director for clinical research, told Bloomberg News, adding that the question is “a pretty urgent thing for us to get a handle on.”

Paxlovid treatment is becoming an increasing part of the Biden administration’s pandemic approach, the news outlet reported, and is more widely available at pharmacies nationwide.

Researchers know little about the rebound cases so far, including how often they occur, whether the Omicron variant may play a role, or whether the drug is even related to the relapse in the first place, the news outlet reported. Scientists are eager to learn more so that doctors know how to help patients who receive Paxlovid treatment and then experience a resurgence of infection.

Earlier this week, researchers at the VA Boston Healthcare System published a preprint with a case study, which marks the first rebound case described in medical literature. A 71-year-old man, who was vaccinated and boosted, quickly recovered from COVID-19 after taking Paxlovid but then had a relapse of symptoms and a spike in viral levels about nine days after his first positive test. Then the symptoms and viral levels resolved a few days later.

Similar cases have appeared on social media and in medical blogs, and doctors have seen patients with these types of rebounds in recent weeks.

“Providers who are going to be prescribing this should be aware that this phenomenon occurs, and if people have symptoms worsening after Paxlovid, it’s probably still COVID,” Paul Sax, MD, clinical director of the infectious diseases division at Brigham and Women’s Hospital, told Bloomberg News.

Sax wrote about a post-Paxlovid rebound he saw a few weeks ago in one of his HIV patients.

Pfizer’s final-stage trial showed that a small number of patients experienced a rebound after being treated. The FDA previously said it was “evaluating the reports of viral load rebound after completing Paxlovid treatment and will share recommendations if appropriate.”

“The big problem is that when this drug was released, this information wasn’t included” in the label, Sax said.

The upcoming CDC and National Institutes of Health studies will attempt to understand how and why the rebound happens. If it appears to be related to emerging variants such as Omicron or certain patient risk factors, some people may need longer than the standard five-day treatment.

“There’s two things that suppress the virus: the drug and the host immune response,” Lane said. “If you stop the drug before the host immune response has had a chance to kick in, you may see the virus come back.”

MIT study finds COVID vaccines 'significantly associated' with jump in emergency heart problems
Israeli data on 16-39 year-olds adds fuel to campaigns against coerced jabs.

Italian court strikes down mandate, and U.S. pilots accuse FAA of ignoring severe adverse reactions among pilots.

https://justthenews.com/politi...iated-jump-emergency

COVID-19 vaccination was "significantly associated" with a 25% jump in emergency medical services (EMS) for heart problems in 16-39 year-olds in Israel, whose vaccination rate is among the world's highest, according to a peer-reviewed study by MIT researchers.

Published last week in the Nature journal Scientific Reports, the study found no association with COVID infections, however.

"While not establishing causal relationships, the findings raise concerns regarding vaccine-induced undetected severe cardiovascular side-effects and underscore the already established causal relationship between vaccines and myocarditis, a frequent cause of unexpected cardiac arrest in young individuals," the study says.

The research adds more fuel to the legal and grassroots campaigns against compelled vaccination.

An Italian administrative court deemed a vaccine mandate on nursing students unconstitutional, citing nearly 10,000 reported deaths from various COVID vaccines in the European Medicines Agency's EudraVigilance monitoring system, but referred the case to the country's Constitutional Court. (The new MIT study also mentions EudraVigilance.)

Published in late March, the 53-page ruling only drew attention in the U.S. last week when an anti-vaccine mandate group translated a portion. Just the News ran the ruling through Google Translate, which said in part the reported death count exceeds the "normal and, therefore, tolerable" risk permitted under vaccine mandates.

File
Italian-court-ruling-vaccine-mandate.pdf
Meanwhile, American Airlines pilot Robert Snow blamed his cardiac arrest six minutes after landing a 200-passenger flight April 9 on his compelled vaccination in November. "I will probably never fly again" due to FAA health criteria for pilots, he said in a video from the ICU in Dallas. "This is the actual result of the vaccine for some of us."

Anti-mandate pilot group U.S. Freedom Flyers accused the Federal Aviation Administration of turning a blind eye to the risks of adverse events from COVID vaccines, both to pilots jabbed against their will and crew and passengers on their flights.

The FAA didn't answer Just the News on whether it's investigating the Snow incident, and if not, how it differs from other health-related incidents it would investigate, but pointed to an FAQ on COVID vaccines for pilots and air traffic controllers.

"The FAA's Federal Air Surgeon determined in December 2020 and February 2021 that pilots and air traffic controllers can safely receive the Pfizer, Moderna, or Johnson & Johnson vaccine," the agency said in a prepared statement. "The FAA has seen no evidence of aircraft accidents or pilot incapacitations caused by pilots suffering medical complications associated with COVID-19 vaccines."

U.S. Freedom Flyers is "informally" collecting adverse event reports from pilots and working with doctors, statisticians and scientists to come up with good estimates of their frequency, cofounder Joshua Yoder told Just the News Tuesday. "We know we have a major problem on our hands" quantifying the problem.

Yoder recently told the Vaccine Safety Research Center that cardiologist Peter McCullough, formerly vice chief of internal medicine at Baylor University Medical Center, told him around 30% of pilots would be sidelined if they were screened for vaccine-induced heart conditions with McCullough's recommended protocol.

The MIT study's corresponding author is management professor Retsef Levi, also a member of Israel's Public Emergency Council for the Coronavirus Crisis. He and McCullough both spoke at the Academy for Science and Freedom inaugural conference on censorship in science in March.

The study notes Israel's Ministry of Health has already assessed a myocarditis risk in 16-24 year-old males of between 1 in 3,000 and 1 in 6,000 after the second mRNA dose, and 1 in 120,000 for under-30 males.

The study analyzed calls to the Israel National EMS data system from Jan. 1, 2019 through June 20, 2021. This represents a 14-month "normal period" before the pandemic, 10-month pre-vaccination, dual-wave "pandemic period," and six months of vaccination.

The breakdown shows how cardiac arrest (CA) and acute coronary syndrome (ACS) calls, confirmed on site by first responders, "change over time with different background conditions and potentially highlight factors that are associated with the observed temporal changes."

Researchers excluded CA calls related to trauma, overdose or suicide, and the protocols were the same for the full 30-month study period, "allowing for a consistent comparison between the call counts during the baseline, pandemic, and vaccination periods."

The vaccine rollout period for 16-39 year-olds, January-May 2021, coincided with the third COVID wave in Israel. It showed a "statistically significant increase of over 25%" for both kinds of calls compared to the same period in 2020.

For CA specifically, there was "no statistically significant difference in the respective call volume" between full-year 2019 and 2020. For ACS, the "significant relevant increase" in that full-year period (15.8%) was outpaced by the January-May 2021 increase (26%).

The researchers said the January 2021 increase "seems to track closely the administration of 2nd dose vaccines," while a second observed increase starting April 18 "seems to track an increase of single-dose vaccination to individuals who recovered from COVID-19 infections." (The Israel Ministry of Health approved the latter for ages 16 and up in early March 2021.)

Females unexpectedly had a higher jump in calls: 31% for CA and 41% for ACS, compared to increases for males of 25% CA and 21% ACS. This may indicate a "potential underdiagnosis or under-self-reporting of myocarditis in females," according to the study, which was exempt from review by MIT's Institutional Review Board.

From the article- “WASHINGTON (AP) — U.S. regulators on Thursday strictly limited who can receive Johnson & Johnson’s COVID-19 vaccine due to the ongoing risk of rare but serious blood clots.”

LIMIT WHO CAN RECEIVE IT??? It should be halted immediately! Imagine all the people that haven’t been tested that right now have soggy earthworms in their vascular systems!

The Triumph of Natural Immunity
By Martin Kulldorff

A new CDC study shows that around 75% of American children – and nearly 60% of adults – have already had covid. That means that they have strong natural immunity that protects them from covid infections as they get older. Despite this, the CDC, the FDA and other government agencies are pushing all of them to get vaccinated.

Why?

One important role of public health agencies during a pandemic is to conduct seroprevalence studies to determine how many people have developed antibodies to the disease from having been infected. That way we understand how the disease has spread and how it varies geographically and among different age groups. Spain did such a large, randomized survey early during the pandemic while Sweden did a series of smaller randomized surveys at regular intervals.

In the United States, this important task was left to individual scientists, but they only had resources to conduct small surveys in a limited area such as the Santa Clara County Study. The CDC has now finally got its act together with a national survey. The results are illuminating.

In April 2020, the Santa Clara study showed that 3% of its population had been infected. In February 2022, the CDC study shows that at least 58% percent of Americans have had covid, as evidenced by their anti-nucleocapsid antibodies, which are produced due to infections but not the vaccines. The numbers vary by age.

What does this mean? We know that natural immunity after covid recovery provides excellent protection against future infections, and while covid will be with us for the rest of our lives, it will be something that our immune system will cope with in the way it is handling the other four widely circulating coronaviruses.

It means that we are now transitioning from the pandemic stage to the endemic stage, and we will eventually reach herd immunity, the end point of every pandemic no matter what strategy is used.

Given these numbers, why are the CDC, the FDA and the government pushing hard for all children to get vaccinated against covid? Why are some schools and universities mandating covid vaccines for children and young adults? The majority already have superior natural immunity.

All of them are at minuscule risk from dying from covid even if they have not had it, a risk that is smaller than dying from any of a whole range of other causes such as motor vehicle accidents, drowning, homicide, suicide, drug overdoses or cancer. While anyone can get infected, there is more than a thousand-fold difference in covid mortality between older and younger people.

To sell a drug or a vaccine, we require pharmaceutical companies to conduct a randomized controlled trial (RCT) to show that it works to prevent serious health outcomes or death. Pfizer and Moderna have not done that. For adults they only showed a reduction in symptomatic disease.

To remedy this, a recent Danish study used the RCTs to evaluate all-cause mortality. For every 100 who die in the placebo group, there are 103 deaths among mRNA vaccinees, with a 95% confidence interval of 63 to 171. This contrasts with the adenovirus-vector vaccines (AstraZeneca and Johnson & Johnson), with 37 deaths among the vaccinees (95% CI: 19-70).

For children, we do not even have this. The randomized covid vaccine trials show that they can prevent mild disease in children without a prior covid infection, but from observational studies we know that this protection wanes rapidly. The RCTs also show that the vaccines generate antibodies in children, but 75% of American children already have superior antibodies from natural infection.

There are no RCTs that show the vaccine prevents deaths or provides any other tangible benefit to children, while there could be harms. All vaccines come with some risks of adverse reactions, and while we know that they cause an increased risk of myocarditis (inflammation of the heart) in young people, we do not yet have a complete picture of the safety profile for these vaccines.

The CDC, the FDA, schools, and universities are pushing covid vaccines without having shown any benefit to the majority of children who have already had covid. It is stunning how these institutions have abandoned 2,500 years of knowledge about natural immunity. For the minority of children without a prior covid infection, the RCTs only show a short-term reduction in mild disease.

The CDC could instead focus on catching up with regular childhood vaccines for measles, polio, and other serious childhood diseases. Those vaccinations were severely disrupted during lockdowns, and we now see an increase in measles and polio worldwide. Yet more collateral damage from two years of disastrous public health policy.

The medical establishment used to push for evidence-based medicine as a counterweight to “alternative medicine.” It is tragic how that philosophy has now been thrown out the window. If Pfizer and Moderna want these vaccines to be given to children, they should first conduct a randomized controlled trial that shows that they reduce hospitalization and all-cause mortality. They failed to do so for adults. They should not get away with that for our children.
