New Study Confirms Risk Of COVID Vaccine Side Effects Dismissed By 'Experts'

For years, the only COVID vaccine message we've heard from "experts," the media and most politicians has been "safe and effective."

Despite initial, and repetitive, assurances that the vaccines would "end the pandemic," that they'd stop infections and transmission, that the vaccinated were morally and intellectually superior individuals, that getting the vaccines was a caring action to protect others, reality immediately proved the "experts" wrong. Anthony Fauci, for example, said in 2021 that getting just 40-50% of adults vaccinated would show an "effect on the dynamics of the virus."

Almost immediately afterwards, heavily vaccinated populations saw massive surges in infection rates. Even today, the misinformation persists among prominent individuals promoting Pfizer products.

Even CDC studies confirmed that vaccinated people were easily catching and spreading COVID among other vaccinated people. That led to the organization's mask guidance changing twice in just a few weeks. By late summer 2021, new variants had demolished whatever vaccine efficacy was left after months of waning, leading to the push for new booster doses. Which also, unsurprisingly, faced the same issues as the initial series. 

Around the same time, concerns around potential vaccine side effects, particularly myocarditis in younger men, grew substantially. Combined with the obviously disappointing results of mass vaccination, a sane scientific/public health community would have reevaluated its positions.

We do not have a sane scientific/public health community.

"Safe and effective" messaging persisted, with politicians relentlessly praising the vaccines on social media…after getting COVID themselves. The very thing they'd told the public would be avoided with vaccines months earlier. Over time, safety concerns have not diminished, especially as the push for boosters led to third, fourth, fifth and sixth doses. And now a new study has yet again shown that there are very real risks from COVID vaccination. Risks that have been inaccurately downplayed or ignored for the past few years.

COVID Vaccines Linked To Adverse Effects In Mammoth Study

This new study from the Global Vaccine Data Network (GVDN) in New Zealand examined 99 million vaccinated people across eight countries, looking for signs of elevated risks from 13 medical conditions as a potential result of COVID vaccination.

Sure enough, they found signs of an elevated risk of side effects, particularly with regards to neurological, blood and heart-related conditions. Specific times of vaccine, those that are viral-vector like Johnson & Johnson's or AstraZeneca's shots, were also linked to blood clots in the brain, Guillain-Barre syndrome, inflammation in the spinal cord while inflammation and swelling in the brain and spinal cord were linked to both viral-vector and mRNA vaccines.

Myocarditis was also specifically noted as having elevated risk ratios; when inaccurate fear-mongering in 2020 from Anthony Fauci and other experts about the risks of myocarditis resulting from COVID was prevalent, organizations like the Big Ten responded by attempting to cancel sports seasons to "protect" young athletes.

Yet as soon as it became associated with COVID vaccines, those same experts and institutions went curiously silent. And make no mistake, there is a significant increase in risk of myocarditis and pericarditis. The chart of risk ratios in the period after multiple doses of COVID vaccines is a sea of red and yellow, with red far exceeding the statistically significant safety signal and yellow more slightly exceeding it.

The risk of myocarditis after the second dose of the mRNA-1273 (Moderna) vaccine was the highest of any dose/vaccine combination. Meanwhile, those same institutions like the Big Ten had, and in some cases still have, mandates that likely forced young people to take on significantly more risk of adverse effects by getting COVID vaccines. While misleading them and the public that the risks from COVID infection were higher.

The researchers themselves acknowledge that this specific side effect was prevalent and increased with further doses. "Moreover, we observed significantly higher risks of myocarditis following the first, second and third doses of BNT162b2 and mRNA-1273 as well as pericarditis after the first and fourth dose of mRNA-1273, and third dose of ChAdOx1, in the 0–42 days risk period," they wrote in their results section.

Neurological effects were also covered by the researchers, highlighting a rare but notable side effect associated with the first dose of Moderna's mRNA vaccine.

"Another potential safety signal was identified for ADEM after the first dose of mRNA-1273 vaccine, with five more observed than expected events based on 1,035,871 person-years and 10.5 million doses administered," they explained.

Large Population Size Increases Importance

The lead author of the study, a member of a epidemiological research department in Denmark, reinforced that the significant size of the study made it easier to find the safety signals that they identified.

"The size of the population in this study increased the possibility of identifying rare potential vaccine safety signals," Kristýna Faksová of the Department of Epidemiology Research, Statens Serum Institut, Copenhagen, Denmark, said in a press release.

While most of the risks identified were still small in overall terms, they weren't nonexistent. And they certainly were, and have never been communicated properly to the public. Instead, the "safe and effective" messaging persists, with any concerns instantly dismissed or hand waved as "conspiracy theories." 

The Fauci's of the world continue to defend their previous statements, ignoring their mistakes, refusing to take accountability or acknowledge the harm they caused. And as this study confirms, that harm may be even more substantial than previously realized.
