This is my continuation of yesterday’s fact check refuting John Flint’s misdirection, misinformation and lies in Perth’s Sunday Times. I will be adding this page to the fact check, Claim: only 1.9% of Australians are against the Covid vaccine. Gaslighting and the Straw Man Fallacy from Perth's tabloid rag, the Sunday Times.
Deaths and injuries from the vaccine - TGA says only 13 died from the vaccine.
John Flint says that in August the Vaccination Risks Network claimed that more people had died from the vaccination than from the virus. He then reports that the TGA said that only 13 deaths were directly linked to vaccination. The ABS reports that by January 2022, 2,566 people had died directly from Covid since the beginning of the pandemic; Worldometer says there have been 15,266 deaths altogether in Australia, although their statistics in January were inflated by at least 40% so the real figure might be nearer 10,000. So 13 deaths from the vaccination are not many, apparently.
Nonetheless in Italy in November 2014, 13 people died within 48 hours of receiving the Novartis influenza vaccine. In those distant, forgotten days when physicians followed the maxim, “Do no harm”, and governments were trying to control the pharmaceutical companies instead of their people, a mere 8 years ago, that was enough – they cancelled the vaccine. Considering that 7,027 deaths were attributable to influenza in this period in Italy, 13 deaths for an illness that only caused maybe 10,000 deaths in Australia is clearly also too many.
Well, shouldn’t 13 deaths also be enough to say, no more Covid vaccines? Or have the TGA not heard of the saying, “Do no harm?” That would be amazing.
But I have to say, how amazing something else is too, that at least two of these 13 people the TGA says died seem to have been in my small network of acquaintances. One very healthy woman, a friend of a friend in her thirties, died soon after her second injection; she suddenly dropped dead on the road as she was getting out of her car. And a very good friend of mine dropped dead suddenly on the steps of the emergency department not long after getting his third jab. Both of these had been recently vaccinated and died, of apparently unexplained causes. What an amazing coincidence that I knew two of the thirteen people.
My conclusion is that this is not a coincidence, but that the rate of death from the vaccine is massively understated.
And there are indications it is certainly more than 13 deaths. Amazingly, the TGA’s own database, DAEN, which anyone can look at, contains reports of 939 deaths - the Doctors or people who filed these reports all believed these deaths were linked to Covid vaccination. Did these other 926 deaths all have autopsies done? Can we see them? It seems outrageous that 926 health workers or relatives of patients were wrong in ascribing deaths to the coronavirus, and only 13 were correct.
It’s good to see that John Flint is such a hard, sharp investigative reporter, a tough rock of the news industry, that he managed to mine the data and extract the truth with an adamantine effort of will - it’s a little unfortunate that he overlooked 926 deaths out of 939, but, you know, you can’t expect him to get every little detail right, he’s only human.
The online form may be cumbersome.
Considering how overstretched Doctors and hospitals are today, since they laid off all the Doctors and nurses who refused to get vaccinated or recommend the mRNA shots, it would be surprising if they have time to fill in the online forms to report deaths and injuries from the vaccine. Patients themselves may also fill in reports. I know of no one who had a definite vaccine injury who filled in one of these reports - my own mother had an extreme reaction after the first Pfizer shot which necessitated calling an ambulance - no one filled in the report for her case. I don’t think anyone even told her she could.
This is called the ‘under-reporting factor’ and new data just made available means the URF is almost certainly at least 140. Previously according to peer reviewed studies in the US VAERS database may be as high as 50, which means there may be 50 times as many deaths that have not been reported.
The VAERS online form is reportedly extremely cumbersome and difficult to use, and if you don’t fill every field in quickly enough, the whole report disappears.
VAERS itself admitted in a study to a 6.5 times underreporting rate, even when reports were explicitly requested. A study in 2021 estimated the underreporting rate as 41 times.
The DAEN underreporting rate is surely at least as high as the one VAERS admits to, particularly in view of the fact that Doctors and health practitioners might well have been paranoid about reporting vaccine injuries in view of the AHPRA threats against their registration if they speak out (see the AHPRA March 9 2021 position statement archived here)
The fact of VAERS underreporting has recently been brought into sharp relief by the legal case in the US wherein ICAN forced the CDC to release the data in their v-safe smartphone app, which reveals that 33% of people reported an adverse event following vaccination, and a quarter of those people required hospital or doctor visits.
There are currently 1,644,517 VAERS reports into Covid vaccine side effects. According to Bloomberg, 613 million doses have been given.
That means that the VAERS underreporting factor is actually 124.
It would be reasonable to assume the DAEN underreporting figure is similar.
Considering the TGA’s claim from the beginning that these experimental injections are safe and effective, they certainly have a vested interest in minimising the apparent number of side effects and deaths.
5,000 unexplained deaths.
And strangely enough, we have an increase in mortality, numbering 10,000 deaths, in Australia in the past year. About 5,000 of these were deaths from Covid. The other 5,000 excess deaths are unexplained.
It’s worth noting that the vaccines were rolled out in Australia in February 2021, so this data only reflects a part of the whole vaccine rollout.
I think a fairly honest estimate means that for every person who was saved by the Covid jab, another was killed by the Covid jab. This does not meet the definition of ‘do no harm’, particularly when one considers the deprecation of proper treatments in favour of the experimental vaccines in Australia.
But the one point Mr Flint doesn’t consider is this: we still don’t know the long term effects of the experimental mRNA vaccines. In the next ten or twenty years, there may be many more deaths attributable to the injections than the ones already identified.
If you caught Covid, then died from it, that’s one thing, but once you’ve recovered you’re unlikely to die from it. If you got the jab, though, who knows? This is why we had the Nuremberg code and the medical coercion clause in our constitution and the human rights agreements and medical ethics and the Hippocratic oath.
And considering the underreporting factor, plenty more people were injured, that we are not being told about; presuming that the v-safe app data is applicable in Australia, around 1/3 of the people who were coerced or inveigled into taking these experimental medications suffered side effects.
Are the TGA, WHO, FDA actually trustworthy?
This TGA that tells us there were only 13 deaths from the vaccine is the same TGA, of course, that did not approve ivermectin, which according to their own data elsewhere is perfectly safe* and now is proven to be 92% effective in preventing death and hospitalisation and treating COVID-19, according to a very large study in Brazil. There are very many studies now showing that Ivermectin prevents death and hospitalisation if given early with zinc. But the TGA tells us:
Apparently India, Japan and Brazil are not developed countries - this sounds very like colonialism to me.
Note that one of their references, the World Health Organisation, is certainly not trustworthy. Aside from the US Government, the WHO’s main source of funds is the Bill and Melinda Gates organisation, which also owns millions of shares in Pfizer, Astra Zeneca, and other big Pharma companies. And the chair of the WHO partner organisation UNITAID, Andrew Hill, was caught on video essentially admitting to suppressing the evidence for Ivermectin being a trustworthy medication for Covid, under pressure from ‘someone high up’, possibly Bill Gates or one of his underlings, considering that most of UNITAID’s funding comes from the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation.
WHO is demonstrably not trustworthy: since the 1976 the WHO has been publishing studies showing how one might sterilise women using tetanus shots contaminated with ACG, a pregnancy hormone; in 2014 the evidence is compelling that the WHO gave tetanus shots to women in Kenya that were intentionally designed to sterilise them.
Also the US Food and Drug Administration receives at least half of its funding from the pharmaceutical companies themselves. And considering that the best career pathway for an FDA bureaucrat is straight into the pharmaceutical industry and that the FDA receives half its funding from pharmaceutical companies, it would actually be surprising if vested interest played no part in FDA decisions and pronouncements.
Big Pharma influence on the TGA vaccine advisory board.
The TGA’s vaccine advisory board is hardly neutral: Professor Kristine Macartney is on the World Health Organisation Global Advisory Committee on Vaccine Safety - funded by Bill and Melinda Gates - Professor Joseph Torresi works at the Doherty Institute which received at least $2 million from the Bill and Melinda Gates foundation in the last 5 years, over $5 million from the NIH, $3.9 million from Pfizer, amounts that represent a large proportion of their funding, dwarfing the amount given by the Australian government, and the chair of the TGA vaccine advisory board, Professor Allen Cheng, works at Alfred Health, and has personally received payments from vaccine manufacturers Biocryst, George Clinical, Gilead, GSK and Merck. The TGA itself does not make these conflicts of interest available publicly as far as I can tell.
The scandal of vaccinated deaths being reported as unvaccinated
There is another scandal, too; it is well documented now that UK data showing deaths from vaccination has been corrupted by the fact that many unvaccinated deaths are actually the death of people who were actually vaccinated.
I wonder if that has been happening here?
Mr Flint, if you were a real journalist you’d be looking into that.
