Tara Granger, 36, has worked as a nurse for two decades in Suffolk County, NY, and she and her two children have been vaccinated every year. “Drugs are my life,” she says. “It’s what I learned in school.” But she’s been questioning the promised upcoming vaccine for COVID-19, in large part because of what she’s…

Vaxxter reports “’Autism is Rising; It’s Not Vaccines’ – A Premature Conclusion?”
In science, no claim today is more contentious and more likely to cause a disturbance than the claim that “vaccines can cause autism.” Scientists vigorously debate string theory, the harms of pesticides in the environment, and climate change, but placing the words vaccines and autism in the same sentence triggers a kind of revulsion that stops any form of scientific…
StatNews reports “Johnson & Johnson Covid-19 vaccine study paused due to unexplained illness in participant”
The study of Johnson & Johnson’s Covid-19 vaccine has been paused due to an unexplained illness in a study participant. A document sent to outside researchers running the 60,000-patient clinical trial states that a “pausing rule” has been met, that the online system used to enroll patients in the study has been closed, and that the…
Shiraz University of Medical Sciences reports “significant relationship between mercury concentration and autism”
There is a likelihood of a possible relationship between the concentrations of copper, lead, and mercury and autism. The present review was carried out to determine the relationship between the concentrations of these elements and autism by meta-analysis. Conclusion: There is, nevertheless, a significant relationship between mercury concentration and autism. Thus, the concentration of mercury can…
Principia Scientific International reports “Dr Fauci: ‘Disturbing’ So Few People Want The COVID Vaccine”
The mainstream media is admitting their disappointment. Despite six months of relentless propaganda to persuade us all to be willing guinea pigs for the new ‘rushed through’ COVID19 vaccine the spin hasn’t worked. A new survey reveals the number of “anti-vaxxers” in the population has doubled since May. Apparently, more of us are now checking the facts…
NEJM reports “Ensuring Uptake of Vaccines against SARS-CoV-2”
As Covid-19 continues to exact a heavy toll, development of a vaccine appears the most promising means of restoring normalcy to civil life. Perhaps no scientific breakthrough is more eagerly anticipated. But bringing a vaccine to market is only half the challenge; also critical is ensuring a high enough vaccination rate to achieve herd immunity….
Physicians for Informed Consent delivers statement “Opposing UC Regents’ Flu Vaccine Mandate”
On behalf of hundreds of physician and scientist members of Physicians for Informed Consent, I am writing out of our concern that the bodily integrity of UC students, faculty, and staff is being potentially sacrificed by the recent UC Regents’ flu vaccine mandate,1 with no robust scientific justification. Patients have reported becoming ill following flu vaccination….
Children’s Health Defense reports “RFK, Jr. and CHD Take Action on Safety Concerns over Moderna’s COVID Vaccine”
On August 26, Children’s Health Defense (CHD) wrote a letter to Dr. Jerry Menikoff, Director of the Department of Health and Human Services’ Office of Human Research Protection (OHRP), asking for an investigation into serious safety concerns with the COVID-19 vaccine being developed by Moderna. Moderna’s version of the vaccine, championed by Dr. Anthony Fauci and…
Journal of Translational Autoimmunity reports “Pathogenic priming likely contributes to serious and critical illness and mortality in COVID-19 via autoimmunity”
Homology between human and viral proteins is an established factor in viral- or vaccine-induced autoimmunity. Failure of SARS and MERS vaccines in animal trials involved pathogenesis consistent with an immunological priming that could involve autoimmunity in lung tissues due to previous exposure to the SARS and MERS spike protein. Exposure pathogenesis to SARS-CoV-2 in COVID-19…
Tenth Amendment Center reports “COVID-19 an Early Warning for Vaccine Mandates”
The history of totalitarian regimes has shown that those who voice dissent early on are often viewed as loons or trouble makers and that, generally, it’s not until the regimes are at their worst that those early dissenters enjoy some restoration of their reputations. It’s ironic, of course, that it takes “things getting bad” for…
