Raising the Alarm on Myocarditis After Covid Vaccination

by Toby Young
29 June 2021 12:52 PM

We’re publishing an original article today on the risks of heart problems following receipt of a Covid vaccine by Dr Clare Craig, a Diagnostic Pathologist in London and member of HART, and Dr Andrew G. Bostom, MD, a MS Research Physician at Brown University’s Center For Primary Care and Prevention at the Memorial Hospital of Rhode Island. They originally submitted it to the BMJ as a ‘Rapid Response’, but it was rejected. Here is an extract:

The FDA has expressed concerns around the rate of reported myocarditis within the VAERS reporting system, especially in the young. A presentation by the FDA on June 10th 2021 compared the reported rates of myocarditis with background expected rates, with data up to May 31st 2021. However, the expected rates to which observed rates were compared were those expected over a 31-day period. For under-18s, 90% of cases had an onset by day five after vaccination, making comparison with expected rates over 31 days unreasonable. A further meeting on June 23rd 2021 examined the reports in a seven day window with data up to 11 June 2021. A four fold increase above baseline was evident in the seven days after the first dose for under-24 year-olds, rising to over 27-fold for the seven days after the second dose. The rate per million doses given in males 12-17 years old was 17 times higher than in men aged over 50 years seven days after the first dose, rising to 74 times seven days after the second dose. (For females the risk was 50% higher and 13 times higher respectively.)

Worth reading in full.

I still get called anti vax even though I just want to be sure that I’m making the right decision as to whether to have my children vaccinated/injected with an experimental new gene therapy. I’m still not sure whether it’s worth the risk for myself which is why i haven’t take it yet. The more I get lectured by my CEO at work, the BBC, the MSM the more I think I’m the subject of the most powerful drug pushers in the world.

Here on the Costas, our beautiful cleaning girl (25) has just had her second dose of Astra Zeneca. She works with children, so was told it’s mandatory. What worried her is having to sign and indemnity/disclaimer in the event of any side effects from the concoction. In my 17 year service career, involving having “an armful of everything going” (to quote Tony Hancock), I don’t recall every having to do such a thing. I’m a 72 year old refusenik.

Using ONS data it has been calculated the chances of a healthy child under 10 dying from C19 is 1 in 4m, thus members of this younger age group have 164x more chance of dying from the vaxx than from C19 (and up to 1640x more chance of dying if the under-reporting caveat is applied). The likelihood of dying from C19 for anyone in the 10 – 19 age group is around 1 in 2.5 million.  This means (using these official vaxx death figure of 1 in 24,331) that a healthy person in this 10-19 age group person has ONE HUNDRED TIMES more chance of dying from the vaxx than from C19 (and up to ONE THOUSAND TIMES more chance of dying if the under-reporting caveat is applied). Following through by age group: 20-29 y/o – c20x (up to 200x*) more chance of dying from the vaxx than C19 30-39 y/o – c7x (up to 70x*) more chance of dying from the vaxx than C19 40-49 y/o – c2x (up to 20x*) more chance of dying from the vaxx than C19 (*) 90% under reporting caveat, although a recent ‘expert’ report in LDS put this under reporting figure higher at at… Read more »

“with an experimental new gene therapy.”

Given it isn’t an experimental new gene therapy, then perhaps the first thing to do is stop using flowery and inaccruate language and balance your thinking.

All vaccines and viruses co-opt the cellular replication mechanisms. RNA viruses like SARS-2 use the same mRNA techniques that newer vaccines mimic.

https://www.immunology.org/public-information/bitesized-immunology/pathogens-and-disease/virus-replication

It’s very difficult to make an informed decision without actually being informed in the first place.

The vaccines aren’t perfect by any means but unless you are young the Infection fatality rates and injury rates of Covid are higher than the vaccine fatality rates and injury rates of vaccination.

The zero risk option isn’t available. Eventually you either get vaccinated, or you catch Covid. There is no other way this ends.

Well if you do, you’re probably the only man on the planet who does, given the misinformation, confusion and downright dishonesty over defining and measuring “covid deaths”.

What we do know is that overall deaths are not significantly up this year, regardless of responses, so we certainly haven’t faced any kind of “once in a lifetime pandemic”.

“What we do know is that overall deaths are not significantly up this year, regardless of responses, so we certainly haven’t faced any kind of “once in a lifetime pandemic””

What we also know is that it is not comparable to previous years because of all the interventions. Simply reducing car traffic reduces deaths.

We know the range of deaths and the likelihood. We can analyse the data in numerous ways. We can listen to several interpretations, and that gives anybody capable a probability distribution.

You do that on the other side, then and then you decide on the balance of probabilities.

Or at least you do if you are rational.

I’ve seen no reason yet to believe that any of the panic responses significantly changed the outcomes, certainly in those countries where the disease got established (the vast majority).

And the simple fact is that as far as the risks from covid are concerned, they would be classed as de minimis for me. Not significantly different from the risks faced routinely, every year of my life, from respiratory viruses. Better to ignore them than to incur significant costs trying to hide from them.

And significant costs would certainly include taking experimental new medical treatment with (by definition) unknown long term consequences. Not that I’m particularly worried about those either, for a male past likely breeding age like myself. But I’ve always been a believer in requiring strong positive justification for medical treatment, and not easily convinced by supposed prophylactic treatment. The precautionary principle.

On the subject of deaths not being much above average you say:

“What we also know is that it is not comparable to previous years because of all the interventions. Simply reducing car traffic reduces deaths.”

To which I say simply denying treatment for a multitude of conditions and mentally and physically torturing vulnerable people (and everyone else for that matter) increases deaths.

Why do you assume your own conclusion?

Isn’t it remarkable that the “interventions” make covid not only less dangerous but invisible?

Errr, sorry Lucan – but we don’t. All we know is the number the government is telling us ad nauseam, day after day on MSM, but that’s people who died ‘with’ Covid and not necessarily ‘of’ Covid. We also know that this is an institutional disease and that a large chunk of deaths occoured in care homes. Don’t misunderstand me; I’m not for one minute suggesting that care home residents don’t matter – they absolutely do. My point is simply that the vast majority of the population don’t live in a care home and that, knowing what we know now (and the government almost certainly knew at the time), many of those deaths were caused by discharging patients from hospital where they contracted the disease – and many of them could have been avoided. Regarding your point about the vaccines not being experimental – can you give an example of another vaccine that uses the same techniques, has been granted emergancy use only, whose manufacturers have a ‘get out of jail free’ card if things go wrong (which they clearly are) and whose phase 3 trials are yet to be completed?

Back in December over 1 million were said to have an active Covid infection on a particular day. These of course were infections bad for people to register symptoms. Probably 10 of millions of people developed Covid immunity in each of of the two Covid waves and it’s quite possible 20% had immunity already.

Watch Robert Malone on ‘Darkhorse’ for his opinion on the dangers of taking part in the emergency ‘vaccine’ trial. He patented mRNA technology in 1989.
If you don’t take him seriously, then all hope for you is lost. He recommends halting the trial until more information is to hand.

“Given it isn’t an experimental new gene therapy“

OK, you assert that. On the other hand I saw Dr Robert Malone stating the opposite in no uncertain terms a few days ago:

“All three vaccines in the UK are based on gene therapy technology and are producing spike protein in cells”

Clearly the fact, that you adduce, that these vaccines “mimic” existing processes in no way makes their use in this form not “new”, and given they have not completed the normal trials we would apply to a new vaccine (on the absurd and dishonest pretext of a supposed “emergency”), they clearly are still experimental.

So given Dr Malone’s very impressive technical background in this area, I’ll take his opinion over yours, thanks.

I’d link you to the excellent discussion in which Malone made that comment, but those noble defenders of truth and decency at Youtube have censored it for “violating YouTube’s Community Guidelines”.

Very reassuring. Not.

Science is the belief in the ignorance of experts. Why his particular eminations rather than the dozens of others that say the opposite?

Forget about “experts” who are just the priests of the foolish.

Look at the data. Get it in comparable format and then make a risk judgement based upon that.

We’ve had millions of shots. We know what the fatality rate is. We know what the damage rate is. We know the same for the illness itself.

Take your pick. But you will be taking one of those risks whether you like it or not.

I went for the lowest risk option based upon rational analysis, not feeling and belief.

I haven’t seen “dozens” of people claim this vaccine isn’t “experimental new gene therapy”. If I did I’d examine the credibility of their assertion much as I did yours, and probably find it equally wanting.

As I pointed out “new” and “experimental” are not honestly contestable in this context. As for whether it’s “gene therapy”, well that’s largely of only semantic significance anyway. I see no reason not to stick with Malone’s opinion on it until you come up with a comparably qualified one to the contrary.

“We’ve had millions of shots. We know what the fatality rate is. We know what the damage rate is. We know the same for the illness itself.“

Well no, part of the problem is precisely that we don’t really know either. But the information we have certainly suggests the danger from the disease is trivial for the vast majority, and the dangers from the vaccines are basically unknown.

I’m less confident than you are that the data is accurate, but leaving that aside do you not also need to include a factor for how effective the vaccine actually is. That hasn’t been clear to me.

And finally, no-one knows what the long term effects are, and side effects emerging that do not seem to have been considered does not inspire confidence.

According to the Yellow Card data, approximately 1 in every 31,000 people who has had a vaccine in the UK has subsequently died, at a time an in a manner which merited a Yellow Card being raised.

We know from Prof Ioannidis’s studies that the overall IFR for COVID-19 on a global basis is, for the under 65s, 0.05% (1 in 2000 people).

So bearing in mind that it’s actually quite difficult to get infected with COVID these days (only 1 in 450 people in England are supposedly infected), the risk of dying from the virus and the risk from the vaccine are rather more closely matched than you suggest.

If the vaccine was any good, the risks associated would be NOWHERE NEAR those from the virus. They would be orders of magntitude less.

But they are not.

Snake Oil implies at worst a useless placebo, not a massive Big Pharma project and overwhelming existential risk to you and yours.

In fact they are several orders of magnitude higher.
At least 100 times more chance of dying form the vaxx than C19 for 10-19 year olds (and this itself is an underestimate as factoring in 90% under reporting this figure would be nearer 1000 times).

On the Diamond Princess the virus was lose for weeks without any response. In a closed environment with a target demographic at no point did more than 17% of the population caught covid.

The evidence from that suggests that nearly 80% of the population had a pre-existing immunity to the virus. So no you don’t either get covid or get vaccinated, its more complicated.

Before any vaccination campaign the first thing should have been to see who had T-Cell immunity. Then vax the vulnerable if they so wish. The virus is only lethal to a small demographic with co-morbidity. For the vast majority its only a minor or mild illness.

Mike Yeadon says the exact opposite and he has the expert specialist knowledge in this field:
“I believe this just happened, a media event with Senator Ron Johnson (R-Wisconsin) & a handful of very many people who are severely affected after covid19 vaccination. Horribly moving testimony.
Towards the end, the Senator gave a short presentation using nothing but public evidence.
The carnage is truly awful. On deaths alone, we are in six months approaching the numbers who’ve died shortly after covid19 vaccines as seen for all other vaccines, which is 31 years (when VAERS was set up). So roughly 50x more lethal than typical vaccines.
Anyone in the healthcare industry MUST acknowledge that some seriously terrible things are happening & those looking into innocent faces need to STAND UP TOGETHER & bring this mass psychosis/ crime to a shuddering halt.
No matter how you think we got here, people with functioning moral compasses must now get this runaway train to be stopped, by any means necessary.

“Sen. Ron Johnson Hearing: Mother with Disabled Daughter Breaks Down Crying While Sharing How COVID Vaccine Shattered Her Daughter’s Life
US Senator Ron Johnson held a press conference with families who are victims of the COVID vaccine Monday at the Federal Courthouse in Milwaukee, Wisconsin.

The families from across the country came to talk about the adverse reactions they have experienced after taking a COVID-19 vaccine.

Just last week the CDC admitted they were finding more cases of rare heart inflammation than expected in young adults who took the COVID vaccine.

The CDC also admitted last week that more people young people have been hospitalized from the COVID vaccine than from the COVID virus.

“The vaccines aren’t perfect by any means but unless you are young the Infection fatality rates and injury rates of Covid are higher than the vaccine fatality rates and injury rates of vaccination.”

That’s your claim. It’s not proven fact. As Alex Berenson has pointed out – and as freely available evidence supports – wherever a mass vaccination programme is launched in a country, the rates for Covid deaths and cases shoot up. The classic case was Mongolia which had 0 Covid deaths before the vaccination programme and then thousands within a few weeks. The deaths occur mainly among the elderly and vulnerable. The health authorities have never accepted the link, but the link is clear and evidenced. If the authorities ignore the facts, then the claims they make about risks and benefits are not grounded in fact and are simply assertions designed to support a narrative.

Given that the little darlings have not (yet) had any injections, but many of the parents/careers/grannies etc have… Well, I’m sure you can see where I’m heading.
Hate to think that I’ve avoided 90% of the bollocks for the last 18 months, only to be at risk for not staying away from the pricks (as I’ve occasionally heard the injected ones called).

“Eventually you either get vaccinated, or you catch Covid. There is no other way this ends.”

I do find your contributions valuable, LG, but this simply isn’t true, not least because getting the jab does not prevent you getting covid.

And, of course, if you catch covid and recover, you don’t need the jab. Although our overlords have made no allowance for that at all.

“It’s very difficult to make an informed decision without actually being informed in the first place.”

Absolutely true. Which is why it’s folly to get jabbed :

  1. There cannot be full information with this appalling level of inadequate RCT testing and lack of even medium term data. The testing regime is now completely blown by the rush to sell the snake oil.
  2. The information – such as exists – is not given to victims. Have a look at any information leaflet in any box of tablets for a comparison of what is normally required to allow determination of risk.

“The vaccines aren’t perfect by any means…” Vaccines better be goddamn perfect otherwise you have needless deaths, and if that is the case, the risks of the vaccines outweigh the benefits. You are part of the problem with that type of thinking.

Or in some cases, such as Andrew Marr, you get vaccinated and still catch covid.

Don’t be bullied this is your health and that of your children. Point out the vaccine trials supposedly end in 2023 and you’ll decide then.

My sympathies. I’m in exactly the same position. At my firm I’m now being asked to plan an internal comms campaign using workforce testimonials to show colleagues how thrilled everyone is who’s been jabbed. It’s the height of idiocy, and even my gentle suggestion that they might be opening themselves up to legal liability is ignored. On ethical grounds I’m trying to dissociate myself from working on this project – I have a close and trusted colleague who has been jabbed who is willing to take it on instead.

“They originally submitted it to the BMJ as a ‘Rapid Response’, but it was rejected.”

Surprise, surprise.

Of course, that’s how “scientific consensus” on what is “The Science” is maintained.

We need to add a further layer of evidential quality below “expert opinion”:

“Supposed expert consensus formed in an environment of systematic coercion and censorship”

12-year old Maddie de Garay was excited to be part of the Covid vaccine trial. Her parents are in medicine & engineering and wanted their kids to help bring an end to the pandemic. But now, Maddie is in a wheelchair and needs a feeding tube. They want her to be believed.

Leeds man Jason Kelk – who was thought to be the UK’s longest Covid-19 inpatient having spent the past 14-and-a-half months in hospital – has died.

The 49-year-old’s devastated family revealed to the Yorkshire Evening Post that his battle had simply got too much for him and he had come to the heartbreaking decision to withdraw from all treatment. 

Earlier this morning he was transferred from St James’ Hospital – where had been since March 31 last year – to St Gemma’s Hospice where he spent his final hours surrounded by his family.

There is no longer a zero risk option.

He lost 6 stone in hospital – not conclusive, but maybe heavy when he went in.

People die all the time, from different conditions. Some want certain treatments, others do not.. There are always options: Do nothing and live your life, get vaccinated and live your life, wear a mask forever. Never go outside. Use Ivermectin, or not. Use vit D, or not. Any combination of these options.

It’s called choice.

Every year people die of flus, and always have, so there never was a zero risk option, but there is an overwhelming comparative option by age group if people bothered doing the maths (and remember this is just fatalities).
u10 – c164x (up to 1640x*) more chance of dying from the vaxx than C19

10-19 y/o – c100x (up to1000x*) more chance of dying from the vaxx than C19

20-29 y/o – c20x (up to 200x*) more chance of dying from the vaxx than C19

30-39 y/o – c7x (up to 70x*) more chance of dying from the vaxx than C19

40-49 y/o – c2x (up to 20x*) more chance of dying from the vaxx than C19
(*) applying the 90% MHRA under reporting caveat.

You mean, it’s not surprising that vaccines produced in a panic and authorised early, without proper trialling, to address a supposed “emergency”, have many more harmful effects than vaccines produced in a more measured manner?

The fact that the authors are suggest a basic study with control group to look into this and that is being rejected or actively not being done by governments says a great deal to me about not caring about populations and just wanting to vaccinate as many as possible. It seems criminal. Glad that Toby published this and glad these doctors have taken the risk of speaking out.

Well, it’s all very well raising this now the damage has been done. But people previously dismissed as “anti-vaxxers”, “conspiracy nutters” and “unintelligent” were pointing out the dangers back in Autumn 2020. The risks were obvious since: all previous attempts to market mRNA vaccines had been rejected because they produced too high a rate of inflammatory responses; the experience with another vaccine meant to deal with a common respiratory virus (the flu vaccine) was extremely mixed (with the vaccine being blamed for the deaths of many of the most vulnerable people while also proving ineffective in terms of protection); the leaked social media comments of healthy trial volunteers made it clear the vaccine would be very demanding in terms of energetics (way beyond the capacity of the weakest to survive); and lastly the manfuacturers told us having the vaccine would not be a “walk in the park” – bit of a hint there! The risk that the mass vaccination programme would become coercive and would provide a platform for the Digital ID based “new totalitarianism” was made clear as well. But Toby and co. have indulged vaxo-triumphalism month after month, presumably on the misguided basis that vaccination was the path… Read more »

By the end of January 2021 just 689 people under the age of 60, with no
co-morbidities, had died from Covid-19 in England and Wales according to NHS England. So the, ‘it’s a vaccine or catch Covid’ is just an utterly barmy, illogical and unscientific bit of blather! It also shows that Vaxxing any healthy people in this age cohort is entirely unnecessary and, in my opinion, totally immoral.
