Unlearned lessons

Try to imagine heath officials and white house staffers frantically running into the oval office sounding the pandemic alarm bells for a sitting United States President. No, I’m not referring to Donald Trump’s presidency. The year was 1976, and Gerald Ford was appointed to lead America after Richard Nixon’s resignation. The White House had received reports about a young soldier at Fort Dix, New Jersey being diagnosed with swine flu and subsequently losing his life. 

Fearing a potential pandemic, based on one death, America’s drug manufacturers were tasked with fast tracking a swine flu vaccine for immediate deployment on the American population. Their hope was to achieve an 80 percent inoculation rate in the U.S., in a very short amount of time. U.S. health officials were predicting one million swine flu deaths within the next year, unless a massive immunization program was aggressively rolled out.

In the spring of 1976, Congress passed emergency legislation, the “National Swine Flu Immunization Program” and rolled it out in early October. Just as Congress did in 2021 with the COVID vaccines, they indemnified big pharma from adverse reactions caused by the experimental vaccines.

Fear was now in charge of the country. 

Early into the vaccine roll out, three senior citizens lost their lives immediately after receiving the shot. The cause was heart failure within hours of receiving inoculation. As public service announcements continued to urge Americans to get vaccinated, additional deaths began to be reported across the country, along with numerous permanent debilitating side-effects. 

Guillain-Barre syndrome, a very severe and rare neurological disorder began to emerge from those receiving swine flu vaccines in large numbers. Over 450 cases were reported, roughly one additional case per every 100,000 of those people who received the vaccine. Due to the overwhelming evidence of adverse reactions, the program was responsibly halted on December 16th. Health insurers have refused to cover victims that were permanently harmed due to the government’s blanket immunity through indemnification. 

Fast forward to current day. In 1990, the Vaccine Adverse Events Reporting System (VAERS) was put into place as an early warning system to detect if there is a problem with a vaccine. Each year, the average number of submissions to VAERS are estimated at about 40,000 adverse reactions, with several hundred deaths. These have become the established norms. 

Since the introduction of COVID vaccines, prior to January of 2023, there have been over one million adverse reaction reports, including over 21,000 deaths. These reactions include, but are not limited to, over 11,000 heart attacks, 13,000 cases of Bell’s Palsy, tens of thousands of reported blood clots and over 25,000 cases of myocarditis and pericarditis. These are documented reported cases. 

It’s widely known that VAERS cases are vastly underreported due to the length of time to make a report; and fear of practitioners being labeled anti-vaxxers.

If we were to compare the response of adverse reactions currently to 1976, the program would have been halted almost immediately. It’s worth noting that in 1976, the CDC did not have a VAERS type reporting system in place, but simply relied on good old fashioned honest physician reporting. 

Many groups including America’s Front-Line Doctors (AFLD), and world renown Immunologist Doctor Peter McColloch, as well as the creator of mRNA technology Doctor Robert Malone, continue to sound the alarm bells regarding the experimental vaccines and boosters currently being used on the American public.

Safety and efficacy remain the biggest concerns throughout the world. Many countries have banned COVID vaccines while others have simply discontinued their use. Social media platforms continue to bury searches and slap warning labels on anything or anyone they construe as contrary information. 

The United States Government has been mandating a vaccine that does not prevent you from acquiring covid, nor stop you from spreading covid. These efficacy and safety debates must be allowed to take place in the public square for all citizens to participate in. We must have access to all relevant information regarding public and personal health.

Big tech and big pharma are the largest political lobbies in the United States, raking in trillions of dollars, with both republicans and democrats alike feeding at the pecuniary trough. The media’s acquiescence has allowed for the creation of a quasi-medical apartheid system in United States America.

Sadly, just as in 1976, American citizens that have been permanently harmed or lost their lives, will have no recourse for damages against big pharma. As of this moment, covid vaccines and boosters are still under emergency use authorization (EUA) in the United States, despite their lack of efficacy. Most health insurers continue to deny insurance claims based on vaccine side-effects.
