What is the truth about Covid vaccine safety?
Are we being told the truth by government agencies and the mainstream media sources about the safety of these new experimental mRNA vaccines? Is the true number of vaccine injured and vaccine-caused deaths being reported (both as statistics and personal stories) so that each person can make an informed decision about their own risks in taking the shots? Are doctors and hospitals honestly reporting what they are seeing relative to hospital admissions with very sick people after they have taken the shots? With vaccine mandates prevalent in some areas – is it ethical to mandate the shot if the vaccines are not as safe as advertised?
I know that many people think you should only get your data and recommendations from the government sources (FDA, CDC, NIH) and the mainstream media. But what if they aren’t being totally upfront about this? Why are the many doctors and scientists that have huge concerns about the safety of these vaccines (after treating vaccine-injured patients and reading the scientific studies and papers) being censored, ridiculed, losing their licenses, etc.? Why is transparent and rigorous debate not being allowed so that people can form their own conclusions? Why are the vaccine injured feeling forgotten and lied to?
I want to share some sources and first-person testimony about serious adverse effects of this vaccine. We are told not to listen to “anecdotal” evidence because it is “not science”. I have included many scientific studies on this blog. What I haven’t included, until now, are “first person” accounts of serious adverse effects after taking the C-19 Vax. This is a long and important blog post – the five+ videos are chosen to give you a lot of information to help sort out fact from fiction.
And to the argument that lots of people have been injured or died from catching Covid-19 (this risk is much higher for the elderly) – this doesn’t take into account that there currently exists many efficacious early treatments for Covid-19, that if known and used, would dramatically have reduced fatalities by 85%, according to many doctors who have been treating Covid since the beginning. The total death rate for Covid is also suspect since even the CDC says that only 6% of Covid deaths had no other co-morbidities. Most had over 2.5 other co-morbidities. The hospitals were incentivized to label deaths as Covid because they were paid an additional $13,000 for Covid diagnosis on the death certificate.
The Hidden Covid-19 Vaccine-Injured
by Sharyl Attkisson, November 4, 2021
“Many pro-vaccine people who have been injured after Covid-19 vaccination say their stories are being hidden by many in the media and ignored by public health officials. Suspicion has been created by the one-sided nature of reporting and advice from many in media and public health when it comes to Covid-19 vaccine. By failing to acknowledge the injuries or the proven power of natural immunity, the officials are responsible for undermining their own credibility.”
“Meantime, advocates are working hard to get out the stories of those who have suffered adverse event reactions to Covid-19 vaccine. The acknowledgement of vaccine injuries is neither pro- nor anti-vaccine at its core; in fact, all of those claiming injuries were, of course, “pro-vaccine” since they got vaccinated in the first place. It is simply information that is necessary for people to make informed judgements about what is right for them and their families.”

** An additional excellent 12-minute compilation of testimonies at this forum is followed by a powerful 24-minute interview with vaccine trial participant Brianne Dressen. Brianne volunteered for the AZ trials and had such severe reactions after the first shot, the second shot was disallowed and she was dropped from the trial. She received no follow-up and like hundreds of others who were removed from the trial because of extreme damage from the first shot, her participation was scrubbed from AZ’s records and her injury data was eliminated from the trial results that they published.
VAERS COVID Vaccine Adverse Event Reports



ADVERSE EVENTS REPORTING: WHAT DOES THE DATA TELL US?
The interview below covers the question of the magnitude of adverse effects, as compared to previous vaccination programs; the issue of under-reporting, which is considerable; the question of causality between an adverse event and an injection and the extent to which causality can be established, using the Bradford Hill Criteria. There is also a discussion of effectiveness, with Dr. Rose answering the somewhat rhetorical question whether these injections are as effective as they are safe. Dr. Rose then answers some questions from the audience.
Dr. Jessica Rose is originally from Ontario, Canada. She holds degrees in applied mathematics, immunology, computational biology, molecular biology and biochemistry. You can find her bio at this link.

“These Patients Deserve to be Heard”
by VAERS Whistleblower, Deborah Conrad, in interview with Del Bigtree of The Highwire.
In a Highwire exclusive, Deborah Conrad, a hospitalist physician’s assistant on the frontlines of the pandemic, pulls back the curtain on the complete lack and disregard in her hospital for reporting Covid vaccine injury to VAERS, this country’s only mechanism to track the safety of these rushed-to-market, mandated products. In riveting detail, including emails & recorded phone conversations, Conrad exposes the internal push to turn a blind eye to injuries and “tow the company line” that this vaccine is safe.
Personal testimony from Adele, Charge Nurse/Asst. Manager, Labor & Delivery at Community Health Network
On June 1, 2021, Adele’s Hospital Network in Indianapolis mandated that every worker be fully vaccinated by August 31. Here is her story (with pictures) of her trying to comply with this mandate so she could keep her job – and the devastating affects of her first Pfizer shot.
Practical Reasons Why Vaccine Injuries Are Rarely Reported
by Dr. Joseph Mercola (based on the interview above – I recommend watching the video for the full impact)
Deborah Conrad, a physician’s assistant (PA), blows the whistle on COVID jab injuries, and the fact that these injuries, by and large, are not being reported. According to Conrad, shortly after the mass vaccination campaign began, she started seeing a surprising number of hospital patients who had recently received a COVID shot and were now testing positive for COVID-19. In particular, patients were coming in with pneumonia, and this was happening even in the middle of the summer. It’s become so common, Conrad refers to 2021 as “the year of pneumonia.” Sepsis cases have also increased. . . . Odd and unusual neurological problems with seizures and tremors are also becoming more commonplace. . . .
After the COVID jab rollout, she also noticed a marked increase in heart attacks, strokes, blood clots, gastrointestinal complaints and bleeds, appendicitis, pancreatitis and recurrent cancers. All of these were “noticeably increased,” she says, and “everybody seemed to notice it.” . . . One of the most surprising problems has been a sudden rise in cancers among vaccinated patients whose cancer had gone into remission before the jab. She’s also seeing new cancers that appear “out of nowhere,” and rarer types of cancer, such as solid organ tumors that kill the patient before a biopsy can even be taken. Blood clots and strokes have also skyrocketed, and these occur even in patients who are on maximum doses of anticoagulants.
Conrad, who has worked as a PA for 17 years, admits she knew nothing about the U.S. Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS) prior to the COVID vaccination campaign. This is the case with most health care providers. None of them were ever educated on how to identify potential vaccine injuries, how to report them, or that they have a legal requirement to report all emergency use vaccine injuries.
It’s worth noting that it is not the doctor’s job to decide whether an injury is caused by a vaccine or not. The language in VAERS is very clear on this. They are simply to report any adverse health condition that occurs after a vaccination has been given. Over time, as reports accumulate, the FDA and CDC can then start to see potential associations, and if a particular condition occurs at high frequency after a particular vaccine is given, the link would then, theoretically at least, be investigated further. In short, VAERS function is to signal potential side effects that weren’t known before.
New VAERS analysis reveals hundreds of serious adverse events that the CDC and FDA never told us about
Steve Kirsch, November 8, 2021
“In a brand new VAERS data analysis performed by our friend Albert Benavides (aka WelcomeTheEagle88), we found hundreds of serious adverse events that were completely missed by the CDC that should have been mentioned in the informed consent document that are given to patients. And we found over 200 symptoms that occur at a higher relative rate than myocarditis (relative to all previous vaccines over the last 5 years). All together, there were over 4,000 VAERS adverse event codes that were elevated by these vaccines by a factor of 10 or more over baseline that the CDC should have warned people about.”
“As of November 1, 2021, there have been more adverse events reported for the COVID vaccines than for all 70+ vaccines combined since they started tracking adverse events 30 years ago. That’s a stunning statistic, nobody can deny it, but nobody in the mainstream medical community (or mainstream media) seems to care much. It’s not even worth noting in passing. Wow.”

The Dangers of Covid-19 Booster Shots and Vaccines: Boosting Blood Clots and Leaky Vessels
by Doctors for Covid Ethics (doctors and scientists from 30 countries, seeking to uphold medical ethics, patient safety and human rights in response to COVID-19)
“New discoveries in the immunology of SARS-CoV-2 and COVID-19 vaccines – What happens inside your body after injection with gene-based COVID-19 vaccines? How does this new ‘vaccination’ technology differ from usual vaccination methods, and why is that dangerous? In this document, we answer all those questions and more, based on the latest and best available science. We explain how several papers in 2021 significantly advanced our understanding of SARS-CoV-2 immunity, and therefore the science and safety of COVID-19 vaccines.”
“Unfortunately, as the COVID-19 vaccination program has followed a policy of ‘vaccinate first – research later’, our understanding of SARS-CoV-2 immunity has only recently caught up with the rushed vaccination schedule. By now, most people have heard that COVID-19 vaccines can cause blood clotting and bleeding. Some readers may even be aware that reports of death following COVID-19 vaccination outnumber those for all vaccines combined since records began, 31 years ago, in the official US database VAERS [1,2].”
“With many patients now having received their first and second doses of COVID-19 vaccines, additional booster shots are being rolled out in many countries. Given that no clinical trials have been performed on more than two injections of any vaccine, it is important that doctors and patients understand how the vaccines interact with the immune system, and the implications for booster shots.“
“So far, doctors and patients confronted with information on COVID vaccine side effects are typically reassured that the benefits of COVID-19 vaccination outweigh the risks. Governments, the pharmaceutical industry, regulators and the media advise populations that the majority of adverse events are mild and transient, with serious complications in only a small minority of vaccine recipients. Most patients, however, are unaware that among relevant scientific experts such a view is not so readily shared.”
“Eminent independent scientists and researchers in the fields of immunology and microbiology have been writing to medical regulators since early 2021 [3], warning of vaccine-related blood clotting and bleeding, including that the official data on blood abnormalities post-vaccination likely represent “just the tip of a huge iceberg” [4]. Those scientists’ warnings pre-dated vaccine suspensions around the world due to acute disease from aberrant blood clotting post-vaccination. The warnings were based on established immunological science, applied to the novel mechanism of action of the gene-based COVID-19 vaccines.”
“Now, more than six months later, new discoveries in the immunology of SARS-CoV-2 [5] have caught up with the rushed vaccination schedule, confirming and extending the experts’ prior warnings. The good news is that we are more comprehensively protected against COVID-19 by our own pre-existing immunity than was previously understood. On the other hand, this pre-existing immunity aggravates the risk that COVID-19 vaccines will induce blood clotting and/or leaky blood vessels. This risk must be expected to escalate with each revaccination. Vaccine-induced harm to our blood vessels is unlikely to be rare. . . . Booster shots are uniquely dangerous, in a way that is unprecedented in the history of vaccines. This is because repeatedly boosting the immune response will repeatedly boost the intensity of self-to-self attack.”

COVID Jab Is Far More Dangerous Than Advertised
Analysis by Dr. Joseph Mercola
Dr. Peter McCullough, the world’s most frequently-cited authority on early COVID-19 treatment, recently explained findings presented to the Food and Drug Administration on Oct. 17 that showed alarming patterns in the rates of deaths from the COVID-19 vaccines versus the virus itself. “We have data now through the first week of August from the Center for Medicaid and Medicare Services, showing that… over 60% of seniors over the age of 65 in the hospital with Covid have been vaccinated,” McCullough said.
. . . [re] the Toxicology Reports paper, which is being referring to as the Kostoff analysis, ”McCullough says the analysis is definitely making news in clinical medicine. The paper focuses on two factors: assumptions and determinism. Determinism describes how likely something is. For example, if a person takes a COVID shot, it’s 100% certain they got the injection. It’s not 50% or 75%. It’s an absolute certainty. As a result, that person has a 100% chance of being exposed to whatever risk is associated with that shot.”
“On the other hand, if a person says no to the injection, it’s not 100% chance they’ll get COVID-19, let alone die from it. You have a less than 1% chance of being exposed to SARS-CoV-2 and getting sick. So, it’s 100% deterministic that taking the shot exposes you to the risks of the shot, and less than 1% deterministic that you’ll get COVID if you don’t take the shot.”
“The other part of the equation is the assumptions, which are based on calculations using available data, such as pre-COVID death statistics and death reports filed with the U.S. Vaccine Adverse Event Reports System (VAERS).”
“As noted by McCullough, two reports have detailed COVID jab death data, showing 50% of deaths occur within 24 hours and 80% occur within the first week. In one of these reports, 86% of deaths were found to have no other explanation aside from a vaccine adverse event. McCullough also cites a Scandinavian study that concluded about 40% of post-jab deaths among seniors in assisted living homes are directly due to the injection. He also cites other eye-opening figures:
- The U.S. Center for Disease Control and Prevention reports having more than 30,000 spontaneous reports of either hospitalizations and/or deaths among the fully vaccinated
- Data from the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services show 300,000 vaccinated CMS recipients have been hospitalized with breakthrough infections
- 60% of seniors over age 65 hospitalized for COVID-19 have been vaccinated
“The FDA and CDC are sponsors of the program. So they in no way have any right or any role of making a comment regarding causality and death, because they are sponsoring the program. So they have an inherent bias,” McCullough said.
“In clinical trials, we would never have the sponsor tell us whether the product caused death or not, because they are biased. They’ve been told to execute this program. So we must have an external group of individuals called a ‘critical event committee,’ then a responsible body called a ‘data safety monitoring board’ to make the call. These groups should have been in place from the very beginning. If we would have had them in place, I think the vaccine program would have been stopped in February for excess mortality. At that time we had 182 deaths. We were thinking 150 deaths max and the program was going to be at the limit of tolerability. But we certainly wouldn’t have let that number rise all the way to 15,000.” McCullough emphasized that the death data has been vetted and confirmed.
“Data very clearly show the mass “vaccination” campaign has not had a discernible impact on global death rates. On the contrary, in some cases the death toll shot up after the COVID shots became widely available. You can browse through covid19.healthdata.org to see this for yourself. Several examples are also included at the very beginning of the video.” [below]

Port Townsend Free Press
A small independent newspaper in Port Townsend, WA, the Port Townsend Free Press, has been publishing uncensored and difficult to find information and first-person accounts of vaccine injury in their area by author Ana Wolpin. Her well-researched articles are worth reading:
The Truth That Must Not Be Spoken by Ana Wolpin, October 30, 2021; “You’re surely not hearing about vaccine injuries or deaths from any other local media. Obituaries about previously healthy residents who died following their jabs never mention that significant detail. Their obits simply say “passed unexpectedly,” or their deaths are attributed to contracting the Covid virus after being fully vaccinated.”
Death by Injection? Why half of America–including healthcare professionals–are refusing experimental Covid-19 shots – Part One. by Ana Wolpin, March 31, 2021; [Death after vaccine] stories like my friend’s are being ignored, downplayed, or denied by the mainstream media. But for anyone who looks beyond the incessant propaganda from the pharma-controlled narrative that the new Covid-19 vaccines are “safe and effective,” a far different story has emerged about this unprecedented medical experiment. The prevailing narrative tells us that injuries following the jab are exceedingly rare and deaths are coincidental. But thousands of doctors, scientists and other experts have been sounding the alarm about this reckless experiment, often at great personal risk. Despite heavy censorship, vicious attacks, shaming and shunning, truth is increasingly coming to light. This article will examine the counter-narrative urgently calling for a halt to all mass experimental injections.
Death by Injection? Why half of America–including healthcare professionals–are refusing the experimental Covid-19 shots –Part Two, by Ana Wolpin, April 6, 2021; “Gene based vaccines have never been used on humans before.
So what we’re witnessing now are human experiments… Auto-immune disease can be triggered by these gene-based vaccines… all have rather severe side effects… You have to be very, very careful that the vaccine is not killing the elderly with pre-existing conditions instead of protecting them.” Sucharit Bhakdi, MD, award-winning virologist and most cited microbiologist in German academic history. This Part Two article uses research and data to explain the dangers of these vaccines – important reading!
