Dr. Fauci was interviewed by CNN journalist Major Garrett upon leaving his post as NAIAD director. Reminiscent of the character in Casablanca who was “shocked” gambling was taking place, Garrett too was “shocked” anyone linked vaccines with the Monday Night Football incident (when Buffalo Bills player Damar Hamlin suffered two cardiac arrests during a contest). Garrett was disgusted and sickened by the implications; he simply could not fathom how anyone could implicate the vaccines. Shocking! Dr. Fauci, of course, ran with the leading question, shaking his head sympathetically.
https://www.cbsnews.com/video/dr-anthony-fauci-on-the-takeout-162023/
Is it inconceivable to link vaccines with young athletes nearly dying? Is America still enamored with Dr. Fauci and will instinctively follow his lead? I don’t know if Garrett’s shock was genuine, but I am certain Dr. Fauci’s reaction was disingenuous.
The Austrian Populist Party, Of Course
The one-channel media, led by attack dog Media Matters, didn’t miss an opportunity to pile on what they see as crazy Right Wing conspiracists regarding vaccine safety:
Hamlin’s sudden heart attack emboldened Travis and other right-wing figures to baselessly spread anti-vaccine conspiracy theories under the guise of concern. They allege that a supposed increase of cardiovascular incidents involving athletes is related to the vaccine. The conspiracy theory, which can be traced back to far-right Austrian populist party websites, holds no scientific weight: There is no evidence correlating COVID-19 vaccination to reported incidents of athletes collapsing. Instead, cardiologists have suggested that Hamlin likely experienced a condition called commotio cordis, in which an impact to the chest during a specific time in the heartbeat cycle can cause cardiac arrest.
Is the implication out-of-line? What about the rise in excess deaths in the U.S. and other countries around the world? What about doctors (as well as medical officials in several European countries) who have stopped vaccines for children and younger adults (including our own pediatrician who has increasingly expressed skepticism as time has worn on)? What about doctors and medical officials raising concerns regarding vaccine safety in general? What about the disproportionate number of young athletes–high school, college, and professional players in the U.S., Europe and elsewhere–who have died unexpectedly or had “major adverse” impacts in the last two years, including many high profile cases in just the last 30 days? Shouldn’t the increasing frequency trouble us? What about myocarditis among young adults, especially in young males? Do we ignore the FDA’s myocarditis warning label issued 18 months ago?
https://www.cnn.com/2021/06/25/health/fda-covid-vaccine-heart-warning/index.html
CNN — The US Food and Drug Administration added a warning about the risk of myocarditis and pericarditis to fact sheets for Moderna and Pfizer-BioNTech Covid-19 vaccines Friday.
What about this poll of American citizens? Or are polls just nonsense unless we like the results?
Sixty-eight percent (68%) of adults say they’ve gotten a COVID-19 vaccination, and a majority (56%) of vaccinated adults report no side effects from the vaccine. Thirty-four percent (34%) say they had minor side effects and seven percent (7%) reported major side effects from the vaccine.
Media Matters tells us the Right’s problematic vaccine theory is traced to the “Austrian populist party”. No. The Right’s concern is traced to facts like the ones above and the ones to follow. Does Media Matters think the American people are so stupid to believe concerns about COVID policy emanate from Austrian populists who we’ve never heard of before? The Austrian populists are labeled a Right Wing party, and the goal is to paint all on the Right as crazy conspiracists.
Why would those on the Right be so dedicated to trashing vaccines? How exactly does this help the Right’s political cause? I used to scoff immediately at anti-vaxers a few years back, but I hesitate now. I was also very pro-COVID vaccine initially. The political calculus hasn’t changed the last 18 months, but the facts have. It is estimated 263 million Americans have received at least one COVID vaccine. Seven percent with “major side effects” would be more 18 million people. Perhaps we should be concerned about this significant number, not about the political implications? Perhaps not enough people yet realize that Dr. Fauci is the one playing politics?
Vaccines and other medications have been halted for far fewer adverse impacts.
In 1976, an outbreak of the swine flu, influenza A virus subtype H1N1 at Fort Dix, New Jersey caused one death, hospitalized 13, and led to a mass immunization program. After the program began, the vaccine was associated with an increase in reports of Guillain-Barré Syndrome, which can cause paralysis, respiratory arrest, and death. The immunization program was ended after approximately 25% of the population of the United States had been administered the vaccine.
The Johnson and Johnson COVID vaccine was also halted in 2021 for fewer than ten adverse impacts. Why the hesitation to pause a vaccine, still labeled as “emergency use”, with millions of potential adverse impacts?
Denmark stopped the vaccines in May 2022 because they were concerned with vaccine efficacy. Denmark is some distance from Austria and quite a different culture: denmark-stops-vaccinating. Several other European and African nations stopped vaccinating all or a portion of their populations since then. Maybe they did this because vaccine efficacy has declined while safety concerns have increased? The U.S. COVID death rate fell significantly in 2022 (45% from 2021) despite falling vaccination rates. The U.S. daily COVID death rate has not exceeded 550 per day in the last ten months (after peaking at more than 2,000 per day four separate times in the prior two years).
A new study published by JAMA Pediatrics found adolescents were seven times more likely to be hospitalized for myocarditis after receiving a second dose of the Pfizer vaccine.

What about the spike proteins (which come from the vaccines themselves as well as the COVID infection) which are accumulating in reproductive and other organs of young adults? The accumulation of the spike protein, the binding protein of the virus, is a problem per Dr. Paul Marik. He says: “don’t get vaccinated” so you can avoid a high load of the spike protein.
https://youtube.com/shorts/KnX8ZY_-cYg?feature=share
But what do I know? I couldn’t engage Dr. Marik or any other doctor in a cogent discussion regarding spike proteins, so maybe I should just ignore such warnings? Dr. Marik has an Austrian sounding name. Maybe he is an Austrian populist who shouldn’t be believed? We should listen to Dr. Fauci instead, right? He is definitely not Austrian, right? Maybe we should listen to this gentleman instead?
Maybe you prefer to listen the Bill Gates who CNN has elevated to honorary doctor of COVID. He tells us: vaccines don’t block infection; they don’t protect against new variants, and they don’t last. Correct. So, why does Dr. Fauci and the Biden Administration mandate them and ask people to boost repeatedly?
Three weeks ago, I did an entire post on the criticisms of the medical skeptics that were exceptionally blunt and as stark in their criticism of failed policies:
there-is-no-science-we-made-it-up
The larger point made by Drs. Alexander and Victory, and echoed by Dr. Drew was that not a single COVID policy was effective: not lockdowns, school closures, mask mandates, social distancing, vaccine mandates. Every government policy failed miserably. Dr. Alexander says the “CDC is one full year behind the science”.
Steve Deace last week interviewed Dr. Harvey Risch, an epidemiologist from Yale University.
https://rumble.com/v26bb8q-pfizers-horse-doctor-silent-on-jab-safety-questions-guest-dr.-harvey-risch-.html (interview beings at minute 30; the initial discussion is on Rebel News confronting Dr. Bourla)
Dr. Risch echoes the same concerns of the three doctors I highlighted earlier. The doctors I quoted earlier scoffed at the incompetency among their medical colleagues. Dr. Risch goes further, clearly condemning government policy as costing hundreds of thousands of lives. Dr. Pierre Kouri also told the U.S. Congress in December 2020 that Ivermectin could have saved hundreds of thousands of lives. Dr. Didier Raoult, named the world’s foremost microbiologist, touted HCQ as a COVID treatment in April 2020 at the start of the pandemic. They, and so many other doctors (doctors I know, doctors with impressive credentials, doctors on TV, etc.), have been ignored or attacked for urging caution and raising concerns about government policies regarding vaccines, the surrealistic denial of real and effective treatments, the lack of masking efficacy, the over-counting of deaths, vaccine mandates in light of not-so-good vaccines, etc.
Are doctors I cite all wrong and Dr. Fauci is right instead? How reliable is Dr. Fauci, in any case? Last year, Dr. Fauci was deposed for eight hours during a Missouri COVID lawsuit against the federal government:
The Elusive COVID Truth: Basic Data Tells the True Story – Seek the Truth (seek-the-truth.com)
In eight hours, Dr. Fauci did not recall the facts in 174 instances. That’s more than 21 instances per hour. He couldn’t go more than a few minutes without having to be reminded of his own actions by the investigators themselves. Unbelievable. What exactly did this man remember?
This is the authority so many in our country still trust implicitly?
By the way, the state of Florida is also beginning a grand jury investigation into COVID-19, to seek “COVID-19 mRNA vaccine accountability”. The House of Representatives is also looking into the “weaponization” of COVID-19 policy. Perhaps, more people will notice when these investigations are completed.
I have known a few who had a major adverse vaccine event. How about you? There are risks with every medication, but why are there so many concerns with this one? Forget my opinion; listen to the informed and concerned medical officials I have highlighted. Be concerned that Dr. Fauci feigns ignorance to this data and the concerns of his fellow colleagues.
Two years ago, I had few doubts the COVID vaccine was our silver bullet. I was certain authorities had ensured it was at least safe, if not fully effective. That’s their job after all. Pfizer’s and Moderna’s hard-to-believe initial claims of efficacy raised my antennae, but deaths fell dramatically during Summer 2021. Vaccines were working. Then, the last half of 2021, the vaccines stopped working. The CDC, one of the supposed ultimate authorities, said on August 5, 2021, not even eight months after its introduction, the vaccine isn’t stopping transmission. CDC Director, Dr. Walenksy had a positive spin, but ultimately admitted this now well-known fact:
“Our vaccines are working exceptionally well,” Walensky told CNN in an interview on Thursday, Aug. 5. “They continue to work well for Delta, with regard to severe illness and death – they prevent it. But what they can’t do anymore is prevent transmission.”
Remember that was a year-and-a-half ago, before vaccines were mandated by the Biden administration. What kind of vaccine doesn’t stop transmission? Shortly after the CDC admission above, the CDC would re-define the term “vaccine” to accommodate this limitation. In 2022, Pfizer made the surreal admission it never actually ran trials to determine the vaccine would stop transmission:
Speaking at the EU parliament, Rob Roos asked Ms Small: “Was the Pfizer covid vaccine tested on stopping the transmission of the virus before it entered the market?
“If not, please say it clearly. If yes, are you willing to share the data with this committee? I really want a straight answer, yes or no, and I’m looking forward to it.”
Small replied: “Regarding the question around did we know about stopping the immunization before it entered the market? No.
“We had to move at the speed of science to really understand what was taking place in the market. And from that point of view we had to do everything at risk
It is more Austrian populism I suppose.
Yes, it is time consuming and expensive to conduct trials, but why did Pfizer make such claims to the contrary for two years? This past week, in Davos, Switzerland at the World Economic Forum, Rebel News, caught up with Pfizer CEO Dr. Albert Bourla. This is a truly an astonishing video. The two reporters ask 29 leading questions in just a few minutes.
Dr. Bourla does not answer one single question. He does not deny any of the accusations. He does not offer any excuses. He does not ask them to contact his office later. He appears afraid to address any of it.
rebel-news-confronts-albert-bourla
WATCH: Rebel News Confronts Pfizer CEO Albert Bourla at World Economic Forum
Dr. Bourla tries to avoid questioners by attempting to duck into a locked building. Mercifully, from his perspective, he escapes, reaching his destination after 29 harrowing questions.
The only question they didn’t ask is: why did Pfizer, along with the FDA, attempt to seal vaccine trial data for 75 years? https://www.reuters.com/legal/government/paramount-importance-judge-orders-fda-hasten-release-pfizer-vaccine-docs-2022-01-07/
“Between Avi and I, we asked 29 questions. Everything we have been wanting to ask the Pfizer CEO for three years — from how much he has personally profited from the pandemic, to how much he has paid others to promote his vaccines, to important questions about when he knew his vaccines didn’t actually stop transmission, and why he kept it a secret,” Levant wrote on Rebel News.
Switzerland is close to Austria, so maybe these Rebel News folks (pretending to be from Canada) are actually Austrian populists? Dr. Bourla is just a veterinarian posing as a vaccine expert and big pharma CEO. They shouldn’t have picked on him.
Just a week after this encounter, Project Veritas released an undercover video with the Pfizer Director of Research and Development who claimed Pfizer is manipulating the COVID virus in order to develop a vaccine to combat the manipulated virus.
Was he joking? Please tell us none of this is real. Yet, this action hardly seems out-of-character with the diabolic actions we have seen to this point. Certainly, Florida Senator Marco Rubio took the Pfizer Director seriously and has demanded Dr. Bourla come clean on this.
I write in response to troubling reports on Pfizer’s intention to mutate the SARS-CoV-2 (COVID) virus through gain-of-function, or “directed evolution,” as detailed by Pfizer Director of Research and Development, Jordan Walker.
What About the Other Cases?
I have no idea if Mr. Hamlin was vaccinated prior to the Monday Night game. I doubt we will ever be told. Still, despite protestations from CNN and Dr. Fauci, the question is worth asking. If skeptics like us are attacked for asking (or doubting folks like Dr. Bourla who avoids questions altogether), we will suspect there is something to hide. We should know more about the vaccine status of the many others who have suffered similar unlikely scenarios.
What about all these incidents with young athletes–all of which have all happened this month?

In that same post, I discussed numerous other incidents among young athletes. All the incidents discussed above have happened since my December post. Remember, these are athletes who are often closely monitored by teams and generally in peak health.
The Elusive COVID Truth: Basic Data Tells the True Story – Seek the Truth (seek-the-truth.com)
These events are not unprecedented. In 1990, Hank Gathers, a college basketball player, collapsed and died suddenly during a game. There have been others over the years. Gathers died from a rare heart condition. These anomalies can happen and they can have a variety of causes, but what is alarming is today is the number of such events in a short period.
Anecdotal data can be misleading. What we really need are statistics showing there is no such trend, confirming that it was all thought by the Austrian populists in a coffee shop in Vienna. Here is interesting data from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics showing an increase in disabilities among U.S. workers beginning in early 2021. Remember, the vaccines were first distributed in December 2020. Just a couple months later, there is a significant rise in disabilities. Go figure.
A linear regression from 2014 through 2020 shows a relatively flat line, meaning, despite fluctuations, the seven-year trend was stable (around 6,000 per month). During this 7-year baseline, the average never rose above 6,500 per month. In early 2021, it started to climb, rising from 6,000 at the end of 2020 to 8,000, a 25% increase in just two years (following 7 years with no increase).
What might be causing this rise? Austrian populists say there is a remarkable coincidence between the rise in disabilities and the widespread access to the COVID vaccine. Consider also: how many in the highest risk COVID groups are still in the labor force? Some, but probably the vast majority are between 18 and 60, among those least impacted by COVID. If this increase were caused by COVID itself, why didn’t that trend start in 2020 and why didn’t it return to the mean as COVID deaths decreased in 2022?
In the UK, there were 50K excess deaths reported in 2022, that is 50K more deaths than would be expected. This was blamed on COVID, but COVID deaths decreased significantly in 2022. Is it too simple an explanation for those not paying close attention and therefore easily fooled?
50,000-excess-deaths-in-UK-blamed-on-pandemic
Australian data shows that heart attacks were up 17% in 2022, heart attacks for more people than would be expected, folks like 23-year old football players in peak physical condition suffering two cardiac arrests and nearly dying from a routine football tackle.
Dr. Campbell also weighed in on excess deaths in these same countries and more. He says the data is “quite concerning”, especially as the rate of excess deaths is increasing. He is British, not Austrian.
There is enough data to go around, so much so that someone might create a movie about all those who have died suddenly. Here is a trailer from just such a movie: https://gloria.tv/post/SHUyPvh8qzzV36NumwEgZmWsn#15

Blood clots: Shocking Lab Investigation of COVID Vaccines (theepochtimes.com)
Dr. Wenn, Austrian Populist?
Dr. Leanna Wenn is a CNN analyst, and although still bullish on vaccines, she has begun questioning the counting of COVID deaths. As I reported throughout 2022, the number of reported COVID deaths last year declined significantly. Contrast that inflated (and declining) number with increasing vaccine adverse events. These two data points alone shatter the continued push for vaccines. Throw in what Dr. Risch, Dr. Kouri, and others say regarding the availability of treatments, and how can we possibly justify continue to push for vaccines?
She spoke to two Infectious-disease experts, who told her they believed “the number of deaths attributed to COVID is far greater than the actual number of people dying from COVID.”
CNN itself was censoring others for saying the same thing two years ago. Now, Dr. Wenn, CNN’s own analyst, is attacked. Attacked for changing her mind? Attacked for, as she said on CNN, “being intellectually honest?

Update 1/30/23:
Please take note of what is happening. It is not simply good intentions gone bad or incompetent people making bad decisions; it is much more sinister.
Daniel Horowitz asks this question regarding the COVID jabs: Did 7.5 million people die from COVID shots? Is it “shocking” he asked or does the empirical evidence back up this claim? How scary is the world we live in that we are even seriously considering such a problem?
Horowitz: Did 7.5 million people die from COVID shots? – Conservative Review
There is simply no macro epidemiological evidence that the COVID jabs saved any lives from the virus. To the contrary, there are numerous data points showing negative efficacy. Moreover, over 70% of the 6.75 million recorded COVID deaths occurred precisely after the shots were unleashed. In fact, many parts of the world that barely experienced COVID deaths during the first year, such as Scandinavia, Australia, and far East Asia, incurred almost all of their deaths after the shots were in the arms of every senior. So now that we established there was no mortality benefit, what was the cost? What if I told you it was 7.5 million – even more than the recorded number of COVID deaths?
Below is information from our pediatrician’s newsletter. First, the good news, as I’ve been saying for much of the last year:
We are months into a highly infectious Omicron wave with new strains XBB/.1.5 supplanting BA.4/5 with absolutely no signs of worsening disease severity or morbidity. The country as a whole is in the best place since the pandemic began and then became an endemic state.
He notes a study and then states the following:
This is the major reason why the current bivalent Covid vaccine has no benefit offered over the original vaccine and or prior infection.
He quotes other doctors as well:
booster dosing is probably best reserved for the people most likely to need protection against severe disease — specifically, older adults, people with multiple coexisting conditions that put them at high risk for serious illness, and those who are immunocompromised. In the meantime, I believe we should stop trying to prevent all symptomatic infections in healthy, young people by boosting them with vaccines containing mRNA from strains that might disappear a few months later.” (Offit P. 2023)
Dr. Vinay Prasad writes: “The average American will now only be tasked with getting a yearly unproven booster, and the primary series will be ignored. Kids and older Americans will have to get 2 doses of the bivalent shot and then placed on the perpetual booster train. Pfizer will keep earning billions. There is no talk of: Running randomized trials to ensure annual boosters actually lower severe disease in healthy young adults and kids; The risks of myocarditis from a perpetual booster strategy, which are disproportionately faced by young men who have the least (perhaps nothing) to gain; The fact that these vaccines will always be chasing the last variant; The fact these vaccines provide no benefit to others because they cannot stop spread; If one zooms out on all of human existence (8 billion people and 1 trillion human interactions a day) any and all vaccine programs cannot even slow spread. Eric Rubin of NEJM fame says exactly my position: “I think we need to raise the bar and require more evidence.””(Prasad V. 2023)
Dr. Prasad speculates about a reason the FDA would push new, unproven vaccines on us:
He does raise an interesting point regarding the revolving door of FDA employees leaving and joining Big Pharma including former FDA commissioner Scott Gottlieb who is on Pfizer’s board of directors currently. Can you say conflict of interest
Our pediatrician and the doctors he quotes are not 100% against the vaccines, but they see problems, especially with vaccinating all but a small slice of the population.
Steve Deace on today’s show interviewed Dr. Molly James, yet another doctor who blithely talks about the failure of the vaccines ( https://jamesclinic.com/). She also offers advice about those concerns and about the potential impact of the spike protein (if you were one, like me, vaccinated early on).
If you have read my blog the last year-and-a-half, you will have seen quotes from dozens upon dozens of doctors raising concerns about these vaccines and other COVID policies. There are so many raising the alarms. Why on earth does our one-channel media still label us as dangerous and purveyors of “horse medicine”?
Update 1/31/23:
The odd instances involving the young and healthy are not stopping, yet an MSNBC hosts looks for any explanation other than the vaccine despite a harrowing experience of her own.
(28) 19 Year Old Swimming Instructor ‘DIES’ SUDDENLY from CARDIAC ARREST?! WTF?! – YouTube
The MSNBC host, a 44-year old healthy woman (a long distance jogger) experienced some frightening health problems for all of January. She thought she was dying, had two lengthy hospital stays, had pericarditis and then myocarditis, and she blames it all on a cold virus. She works for MSNBC, so, of course, she is fully vax’d. She interviews her doctor who says a cold virus affected her heart. She asks on air: why are these incidents happening so often lately? He says nothing about vaccines. This is the point, however.
There are some medical sites that do talk about the possibility of a virus causing myocarditis https://www.hopkinsmedicine.org/health/conditions-and-diseases/myocarditis, yet the doctor refers to this occurrence as idiopathic (we don’t know why it happened). The FDA has a myocarditis warning for the COVID vaccine, yet we can’t go there. The two cannot mention the word “vaccine” for any reason whatsoever. How can she not ask the obvious question: is there some other possible explanation? She knows full well that others will suspect the COVID vaccines, yet she, along with Dr. Fauci, wants to convince us there is nothing to that notion; she and her doctor refuse to go there at all during the interview.
Yasmin Vossoughian opens up about health scare | Watch (msn.com)
I would never pretend I know better than this doctor regarding his patient’s condition or treatment. However, this doctor and this host on MSNBC are trying to convince us that NONE of the young, healthy people who have died or had severe adverse impacts recently had vaccine side effects. Really? None? There is always another explanation. In addition to this woman’s experiences, I highlighted more than a half dozen serious incidents with young men, ages 18 to 25, all of which have occurred in January, after the Monday Night Football incident with Damar Hamlin. Several of these young men have died; others had serious adverse impacts. Mr. Hamlin would have surely died if medical personnel had not been very close by. None of these incidents have anything to do with vaccine side effects? Or are we simply not supposed to ask the question?

I met a man the other day in the spa in Sussex, UK which my wife and I attend. He was reasonably fit and healthy, he said he had a heart attack earlier last year. Of 5 friends he knew in their 50’s, 2 had died of heart attacks, the others had acquired heart issues. All had been vaccinated. I understand they too were reasonably fit and healthy.
