FLCCC INaugural Conference on Treating COVID vaccine injuries and long COVID Oct 14-16.

 

Understanding & Treating
Spike Protein-Induced Diseases

October 14-16, 2022
Orlando, Florida

Continuing Education credits now available!NOTE: ONLINE REGISTRATION FOR THE CONFERENCE AND VIP DINNER CLOSES ON MONDAY, OCTOBER 10th AT NOON ET. AFTER THAT TIME, REGISTRATION FOR THE CONFERENCE WILL ONLY BE AVAILABLE ONSITE DURING STATED REGISTRATION TIMES. NO ONSITE VIP RECEPTION REGISTRATION.

The FLCCC Alliance presents its inaugural conference to bring together the top experts in the field of pathology, evaluation, and treatment of spike-induced diseases. Lectures will focus on the pathogenesis of spike-induced diseases, diagnosing both long COVID and post vaccine syndromes and the latest, most effective approaches to treatment. The conference will gather some of the nation’s foremost COVID experts and healthcare providers to learn, share and network — and most importantly to drive greater attention and awareness of the increasing number of patients afflicted with post COVID and post vaccine chronic conditions, many of which are not getting treatment today.

WHO SHOULD ATTEND: Healthcare providers, but all who have an interest and want to stay current on these topics are welcome.

Horowitz: 5 shocking new studies and data points that nuke the COVID shots

“In summary, we have highlighted the pitfalls of having considered until now COVID-19 mRNA vaccines as just conventional vaccines, and we have indicated the preclinical, clinical and post-marketing safety assessments that are most urgently needed. COVID-19 mRNA vaccines are actually pharmaceutical drugs, and consequently their pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics, and possibly also their pharmacogenetics, must be properly characterized to provide a solid background of knowledge for their rational and targeted use, thus stopping ‘playing dice’ with these products due to the misbelief that the same vaccine at the same dose is good for everyone, and that adverse effects occur just by chance.”

Those were the words of Italian researchers in a recent pharmacological analysis of the COVID shots published in the International Journal of Molecular Sciences nearly two years after these products were foisted upon 5.35 billion human beings – often multiple times – under the false pretense of the jabs acting like vaccines. Who will be held accountable?

Every day, news pours out about the lack of safety and ineffectiveness of the shots, but they fail to move the needle on policy. It is unclear what it will take to get these biological agents pulled from the market, but here are some of the most recent bombshells proving the shots are extremely unsafe and ineffective:

Autopsy shows extensive brain and heart damage: Nearly two years into this mass genocide, global governments have refused to conduct widespread autopsies on those who died suddenly shortly after getting the shots. They have also rebuffed calls to release the data and analysis on those autopsies they did conduct. One can only imagine what we would learn about the extent of the danger, but now we have a glimpse from an autopsy of a 76-year-old man with Parkinson’s disease who died three weeks after receiving a third dose. The case study published by German pathologists in the prestigious journal “Vaccines” found severe inflammation in the brain tissue and heart attributable to the shots.

The pathologists used immunohistochemistry, which utilizes staining techniques to light up only specific antigens, in this case only the spike protein native to the shots, not the nucleocapsid protein from the virus. What did they find?

“However, histopathological analyses of the brain uncovered previously unsuspected findings, including acute vasculitis (predominantly lymphocytic) as well as multifocal necrotizing encephalitis of unknown etiology with pronounced inflammation including glial and lymphocytic reaction. In the heart, signs of chronic cardiomyopathy as well as mild acute lympho-histiocytic myocarditis and vasculitis were present” (emphasis added).

Importantly, they only found spike antibodies without any nucleocapsid antibodies, meaning that this individual was only exposed to the shots, not to the actual virus. Until now, many pharma apologists blamed the rash of sudden encephalitis and myocarditis cases on the virus, but as the authors note, “The findings corroborate previous reports of encephalitis and myocarditis caused by gene-based COVID-19 vaccines.”

Although he died following his third shot in December 2021, interestingly, the man already “experienced pronounced cardiovascular side effects, for which he repeatedly had to consult his doctor,” after his first shot (AstraZeneca) in May 2021 and “increased anxiety, lethargy, and social withdrawal” after his second shot (Pfizer) in July 2021. He seemed to decline rapidly even before the third shot, suffering “severe motor impairment and a recurrent need for wheelchair support.” The man in the study “never fully recovered” from the shots by the time he got his booster in December.

Two weeks after the third vaccination, he “suddenly collapsed while eating dinner” without “coughing or any signs of food aspiration.” If not for his family paying for an autopsy, we would not have this information about a cause of death that likely occurred in countless thousands of other young and old vaccinated people.

With findings like this, how can every case of a sudden death post-vaccination not be immediately investigated with pathology to determine if this phenomenon is occurring in a significant portion of the population? Where is the emergency to get ahead of this and detect, diagnose, and treat people before it’s too late? After all, only 5.3 billion people are potentially affected.

Negative efficacy galore: Imagine engaging in societal apartheid and persecuting those who didn’t get the jabs on the assumption that they are spreaders of disease but then discovering that, in fact, the opposite is true? I’ve been reporting on negative efficacy for over a year already, but now we have a Kaiser Permanganate study that shows negative efficacy of the shots against all variants within 150 days. And this study shows the more you inject, the more you infect; specifically, over time, those with three doses fare worse than those with two.

The American Association of Physicians and Surgeons posted a Twitter thread with numerous studies published throughout the past year showing a similar trend of negative efficacy resulting from the shots.

One of the likely culprits for negative efficacy is that the shots prime the body to respond to a version of the virus that has long since changed, thereby making the natural immune response misfire. Supporters of endless jabs will suggest that this is why they created the new bivalent shot for BA.5 (the one that was studied in eight mice and no humans). However, an entirely new variant is already surging, rendering this shot just as irrelevant and likely counterproductive. According to the CDC, BA.4.6 now represents 13% of all COVID-19 cases and is rising sharply, with some other variants breaking out as well.

Negative efficacy even against death: Well, at least the shots still work against critical illness, right? Wrong! Deaths have largely plummeted across all groups given that Omicron is not nearly as pathogenic as the previous versions of the virus, but data continues to show the overwhelming number of deaths to be among the vaccinated. It turns out that in the month of June, 92% of all COVID deaths in Canada were among the vaccinated, even though they composed a slightly smaller share of the population (85%). Even more telling is the fact that 81% of the deaths were among those who had three or more doses, even though those individuals only account for 34% of the population.

Neonatal deaths: Remember when Scotland suffered a sudden rash of neonatal deaths last September? At the time, 21 newborns had died in a month, triggering an investigation because the numbers rose above an upper control limit for the first time in four years. Neonatal deaths hit 4.9 per 1,000 live births, on a par with levels that were last seen in the late 1980s. This was an astounding phenomenon, yet the investigation yielded no cause other than disproving COVID as a culprit. But notice that the COVID shots were never investigated. Well, now the data is triggering another investigation, as at least 18 newborns died within four weeks of birth during the month of March 2022, the equivalent of 4.6 per 1,000 births. Here is the trend line from Public Health Scotland:

Notice the spikes above baseline beginning right around the beginning of 2021 and accelerating in two peaks later on. What major biological product was mass-distributed around that time? Obviously this alone doesn’t prove any causation, but the fact that we know the spike protein goes into the reproductive system and breast milk, menstrual irregularities are ubiquitous, so many countries are experiencing record low birth rates around the same time, and these shots are otherwise extremely inflammatory in the adult population, wouldn’t you think there would be some interest in investigating the shots as a potential suspect?

Just how bad are the menstrual and gynecological problems? One recent survey of 6,049 women from May 16, 2021, through December 31, 2021, right after most young women got the shot, found 292, or 4.8%, of the respondents self-reported a case of decidual cast shedding (DCS). DCS is a rare gynecological disorder in which a woman sheds her entire uterine lining intact through the vaginal canal as if she were having menstrual bleeding. It is so rare that the authors of this paper could only find 40 documented cases in 109 years.

It’s not like the government doesn’t have blaring and glaring safety signals on reproductive health, either. As of late September, there were 5,055 miscarriages reported to VAERS and 11,598 instances of vaginal/uterine hemorrhaging. Remember, miscarriages are extremely hard to pin on the vaccine, so the fact that so many felt they could report it demonstrates there is likely a woeful underreporting rate. While none of this directly proves the shots are primarily responsible for the neonatal deaths, it would be ludicrous not to carefully investigate them as a culprit.

Other countries experienced this problem as well. In Iceland, deaths among infants doubled in 2021 from the baseline level of the preceding nine years. Several Israeli hospitals saw similar trends in stillbirths and miscarriages.

Adverse events in nursing babies: We already know that the therapeutic can pass through the mother’s milk from lactating women who get the shots. Now, a new study published in JAMA, which was bizarrely designed to make the shots look safe, actually reveals that 3.5% of the women reported a decrease in breast milk supply and 1.2% reported “issues with their breastmilk-fed infant after vaccination.” They decline to describe the nature of those issues, but the fact that they can so casually report this as if these numbers are good news is shocking.

Keep in mind that the swine flu vaccine was pulled from the market in 1976 after 1 in 100,000 experienced Guillain-Barre syndrome. The fact that these shots could be forced down people’s throats, including pregnant and nursing women, after such relatively high percentages of adverse events defies logic.

Yet it’s now clear the medical community and the government knew this shot was problematic from day one. Already in early February 2021, a local Fox affiliate in Salt Lake City reported that the Society of Breast Imaging rolled out a new protocol for women to wait for mammograms after getting the shots after they discovered 11% of those who got Moderna’s first dose and 16% after the second dose experienced inflamed lymph nodes. They knew such a high percentage of hyperinflammation is abnormal and portends trouble, particularly for breast cancer and lymphoma, yet they simply pushed off mammograms rather than raising the alarm about the cause of the inflammation.

No wonder the Pfizer CEO declined to appear before an EU parliamentary hearing on the shots. There’s an endless litany of crimes against humanity he must answer for. But what is our excuse for not holding all the people in government and medicine accountable in the U.S.? One could have feigned ignorance in early 2021, but now we are light-years past the threshold for willful misconduct. How much longer will we allow the government to “roll the dice” with the lives of all humanity and even their future offspring?

My medical board hearing starts October 11 at 1 pm EDT and will be livestreamed. I will be the first witness

The hearing will run 1pm -7 pm and I will likely be the only witness.  Come join the fun.  Attorney Justine Tanguay will liveblog the proceeding to people can understand what is really going on

https://childrenshealthdefense.org/defender/dr-meryl-nass-suspension-maine-medical-board-misinformation/

The Maine Board of Licensure in Medicine next week will hold a hearing related to the board’s Jan. 12 suspension of Dr. Meryl Nass’s medical license.

CHD.TV will livestream Nass’s hearing on Oct. 11, 1 p.m. Eastern. You can watch here.

Nass’s original suspension order included accusations of spreading “misinformation.” However, the board on Sept. 26 withdrew six of those accusations and, on Sept. 30, withdrew more of its factual allegations related to “misinformation.”

Next week’s hearing will focus on Nass’s prescribing of hydroxychloroquine and ivermectin to treat COVID-19 and on record-keeping issues.

There are no patient complaints for the board to review.

According to her opening statement, Nass will introduce 286 pages of e-mails and letters from her patients and others, attesting to her competency, care and responsiveness to patient needs.

You can read two of the board’s recent notices withdrawing various complaints (second and third notices), Nass’s opening statement to the board and defense counsel’s timeline of events that led to her suspension.

Commenting on Nass’s suspension, Children’s Health Defense (CHD) President and General Counsel said:

“The Board’s attempts to censor physicians like Nass have no role in medicine or science. They present a grave danger to the health and human rights of all Americans.”

CHD is supporting Nass’s defense. Testifying experts will include: Harvey Risch, M.D., Ph.D., professor emeritus in epidemiology at Yale University; Dr. Paul Marik, pulmonary and critical care specialist; Dr. Robert Malone, inventor of mRNA vaccine technology; Dr. Pierre Kory, intensive care specialist; Dr. Steven Katsis, surgeon and member of the Oklahoma Medical Board.

Prior to her suspension, in November 2021, Nass wrote to the board asking it to define what it means by “misinformation” and “disinformation,” and to clarify what statutory authority the board has to discipline physicians on the basis of undefined transgressions.

Nass wrote the letter after the board issued a position statement in which it said:

“Physicians who generate and spread COVID-19 vaccine misinformation or disinformation are risking disciplinary action by state medical boards, including the suspension or revocation of their medical license.”

The board did not respond to her letter, Nass told The Defender today.

Suspended without a hearing

The board suspended Nass, an internist with special interests in vaccine-induced illnesses, a biological warfare epidemiologist and member of the CHD scientific advisory committee, after accusing her of “unprofessional” and “disruptive” behavior based on her public criticism of government COVID-19 policies and early treatment of the virus.

Prior to her suspension, throughout her 40 years of practicing medicine, Nass never had a malpractice case or a prior board action taken against her.

However, between October and December 2021, the board received four complaints against her.

Two of the complaints came from strangers who cited “misinformation” they saw on the internet, one came from a physician who accused Nass of prescribing “deworming medication” (ivermectin) and one came from a midwife regarding Nass’ prescribing hydroxychloroquine.

Without a hearing, the board ordered her license immediately suspended, demanded a neuropsychological evaluation and implied that she was mentally impaired or a substance abuser and incompetent to practice medicine.

Nass’s Maine counsel, Gene Libby and Tyler Smith, moved to dismiss all charges and asked the board to apologize to Nass for what they characterized as its unfounded case, intended to silence Nass and like-minded physicians who used effective early treatments for COVID-19 instead of advising their patients to do nothing until or unless they became ill enough to require hospitalization.

Who missed the 4th Nordstream Pipeline? Jeffrey Sachs tells yet another outrageous truth

It’s one week later. The natural gas has all bubbled to the surface. Yet the pipeline owners have not been allowed to inspect the damage.

MOSCOW, Oct 4 (Reuters) - The operators of two Baltic Sea gas pipelines that linked Russia and Germany until they both sprang major leaks last week said they were unable to inspect the damaged sections because of restrictions imposed by Danish and Swedish authorities.

and it seems the sabotage missed one of the 4 pipes in the Nordstream network. This could be the biggest clue of who did it: two of the munitions hit the same pipe, and missed the 4th one. (Add a joke about how the Poles and the Yanks can’t do anything right.)

Kremlin-controlled Gazprom (GAZP.MM) has said flows could resume at the last remaining intact pipeline in the Nord Stream 2 network, a suggestion likely to be rebuffed given Europe blocked Nord Stream 2 days before Moscow sent its troops into Ukraine on Feb. 24.

From the Guardian quoting Der Spiegel is confirmation that each of the 4 blasts resulted from the equivalent of 500 kg TNT, which could have been placed there directly or been shot from a military aircraft.

Intelligence sources quoted in the news magazine Spiegel believe the pipelines were hit in four places by explosions using 500kg of TNT, the equivalent to the explosive power of a heavy aircraft bomb.

This is a really interesting post from MonkeyWerxUS.com about the sabotage events: details on the planes and a theory that the P8 Navy plane could have dropped the munitions.

I had to laugh out loud at how so many MSM blame Russia directly or with sideways smears for blowing up its own pipeline.

And the corollary is that then Russia gets blamed for for the presumed serious climate impact, too. You can’t make this stuff up. From the same Guardian article:

The methane clouds are being monitored closely. The ICOS, which is analysing the air quality, has shown footage of a huge gas cloud hovering above the Baltic Sea and moving across Europe.

Methane measuring stations in Sweden, Norway and Finland had indicated sharp rises in methane in recent days. Observation satellites are believed to have failed to record the emissions due to cloudy weather, the ICOS said.

It said the emissions were equivalent to an entire year’s methane output for a city “the size of Paris or a country like Denmark”.

“This is really bad, most likely the largest emission event ever detected,” Manfredi Caltagirone, acting head of UNEP’s International Methane Emissions Observator told Reuters.

While I heard hypotheses that the pipelines were destroyed forever by salt water, Scientific American says that is not at all correct, and later in the article describes some methods of repair.

Last week, three different sites along the underwater Nord Stream 1 and 2 pipelines ruptured and began leaking gas. The circumstances at Nord Stream may be unusual, but subsea pipeline damage is almost an everyday occurrence. Corrosion from salt water can cause leaks, and again and again, accidents occur as a result of commercial shipping. Nord Stream’s pipes also lie under some of the world’s busiest shipping routes. That’s why pipelines have sophisticated protection measures and repair techniques; plans for dealing with leaks and accidents are formulated as soon as the pipelines are built. Engineers will follow a set playbook to begin repairing the damaged sections of Nord Stream as soon as possible.

I warned you that Jeffrey Sachs was burnishing his reputation as a so-called whistleblower (telling us what everyone with a brain already knew, but doing so on network TV) when he said, very deliberately, that SARS-CoV-2 was developed with US-derived technology. He did not say the US created the virus. He did not say it was deliberately spread. He basically said nothing, but because Jeffrey Sachs had said it, people swooned.

So now he has repeated the trick with the pipeline explosions.

Jeffrey Sachs, a world-renowned American professor of economics, believes the opposite. Yesterday, during a TV appearance on Bloomberg, the professor raised the possibility that the Nord Stream pipeline, which brings Russian gas to Europe, was sabotaged by the US, leading television hosts to take him off air. 

“There is considerable circumstantial evidence that the destruction of Nord Stream is a US operation, perhaps with other NATO countries,” Sachs, a Columbia University professor, where he also leads Center for Sustainable Development, tells TRT World. 

“While nothing is certain, the evidence at this stage points towards the US as the most likely cause of the events,” he adds. Sachs’ comments came when he said that the Western narrative of ‘an unprovoked attack’ by Moscow on Kiev is a flawed argument. “The US attempt to push NATO into Ukraine and Georgia was a key reason for this war,” Sachs says. 

Again, he has told us what everyone already knew, but because it was Sachs and it was network TV, there was shock and awe.

Watch for his next trick—OOPS, I already saw it. The Lancet COVID Commission. In which Sachs asks us to turn over $60 Billion/year to WHO to assist in its world takeover. That is why he is gilding his lily. He has a big sales job up ahead.

Meanwhile, David Bell has written a devastating take-down of the Lancet report in the Epoch Times. Bell’s review crystallizes the fact that the report is a puerile piece of work, untainted by an understanding of public health literature or practice and unlikely to have been written by any experts in anything. Instead, as I have pointed out before, it is a psychological operation, a work of pseudo-scholarship, designed to enrich the WHO and increase its power.

Does a leopard change its spots? CDC grabs the headlines with positive news about monkeypox vaccine, just before the truth outs

2 days later the JAMA publishes better data questioning its benefits. CDC never tells us what its own monkeypox vaccine trial in Congo learned about the vaccine. And always admits...nothing

STAT in an October 3 email only:

“Last week [September 28] the CDC released heartening preliminary data on how much protection people who have had a single dose of monkeypox vaccine may have.”

For some this meant balloons and champagne. For others, we sensed CDC trying to get a positive story out before the bad news coming up over the horizon made it into the news cycle.

And sure enough, the bad news was published in JAMA on September 30.

Here is how STAT tried to be evenhanded about the CDC news on September 28:

A very preliminary analysis of data from 32 states appears to suggest that the monkeypox vaccine being used in the United States is reducing the risk of infection among vaccinated people, Rochelle Walensky, the director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, said Wednesday.

Walensky said the analysis showed that people who were eligible to be vaccinated against monkeypox because of their personal level of risk but who had not received the vaccine were 14 times more likely to contract monkeypox than those who were vaccinated, when the analysis looked at data from two weeks after receipt of a single dose.

Outside experts cautioned against reading too much into the data, with one saying he felt it was “premature” to publish such a finding.

STAT on October 3:

But new data published in JAMA strike a more cautionary tone. Researchers from Howard Brown Health in Chicago reported that 90 people who received monkeypox vaccine — Jynneos, made by Bavarian Nordic — through their clinics from late June to September contracted the virus. Most of those people (77%) tested positive in the first 14 days after their first dose, a time during which their immune responses to the vaccine were still developing. But 21 people contracted the virus after 14 days, eight after 28 days, and two contracted monkeypox three weeks or more after receiving both doses of the vaccine.

Until CDC mentions the failed NIAID 2008 Jynneos monkey trial and the missing-in-action 2017-2022 CDC Congo trial of 1000-1600 health care workers vaccinated with Jynneos, why would you listen to anything the federal health agencies have to say about monkeypox vaccine? Or anything else, for that matter?

In an article dated October 2, but which has an older video clip embedded, NBC asked Rochelle how CDC will regain trust. Can you believe what she said? CDC needs a RESET (she used the word twice!) and she wants to pay people overtime when they stay up all night to protect the rest of us.

She was asked about monkeypox—what about people saying they’ve been here before? Rochelle got busy explaining why monkeypox is different from COVID, dodging the real question. She also said, again, there is never a bad time to get your new booster. I don’t think you can teach any new tricks to this dog. But she sure is obedient! I think they will keep her around for a long time.

There is a problem when you previously had low rates of COVID and vaccinated at a high rate

Each of those 2 things puts your population at higher risk of COVID TODAY than it would otherwise be. Not good for a governor seeking reelection next month on her pro-mandate platform.

BREAKING: 197 Mainers are Hospitalized with COVID-19
Maine has 3rd Highest Hospitalization Rate in Nation

This entire article is courtesy of our friends at Keep Maine Free.

Hospitalizations associated with COVID-19 have spiked to 197, a 20% increase in since last Monday when 164, which was a 3 month high (source: ME CDC COVID Dashboard). That increase is leading most of the nation, where Maine sits at the 3rd highest recent hospitalization rate, just behind Delaware and North Carolina. Among the states leading recent hospitalization rates, Maine has the highest vaccination rate, now at 82%, according to NYT data.

That’s the highest number of current hospitalizations since May 23, when 203 Mainers were hospitalized with COVID-19. What is even more concerning, is that COVID-19 patients requiring critical care bed has increased to 37 - also the most since 5/18.

These numbers are also eerily similar to the October 2021 increase of hospitalizations that began what would be very deadly “Delta Wave.” On October 3, 2021, 205 Mainers were hospitalized with COVID-19.

How many are fully vaccinated?

Maine CDC has not updated COVID-19 Vaccine Breakthrough Data since 9/20, so it is not possible to determine how many of the most recent hospitalizations are fully vaccinated. This post will be updated if and when that data becomes available.

However, for the past 30 consecutive weeks (3/4 to 9/20) the fully vaccinated have made up the majority of new hospitalizations and the majority of new deaths in all but 3 weeks (click here to view my ME CDC Breakthrough Data Log).

During these recent months, the fully vaccinated have made up nearly 3x as many hospitalizations and deaths as the unvaccinated/not fully vaccinated. From 3/4 to 9/20, the Fully According to the ME CDC’s Data, the Fully Vaccinated make up 76% of Maine’s population, 73% of new hospitalizations (968 1327) and 73.5% of reported deaths (295 OF 400) associated with COVID-19 (SOURCES: : 3/4 Breakthrough Data Update and 9/20 Breakthrough Data Update).

How the California law AB2098 fits into the 'whole-of-society' misinformation attack framework

"This bill would designate the dissemination of misinformation or disinformation related to the SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus, or “COVID-19,” as unprofessional conduct." AB2098

The federal government is supposed to tell the truth. In fact, in 2000 a law was passed requiring it to tell the truth, and to make corrections of untruths. That law is titled Guidelines for Ensuring and Maximizing the Quality, Objectivity, Utility, and Integrity of Information Disseminated by Federal Agencies. The Office of Management and Budget had to require that all the federal agencies issue guidelines to keep themselves honest. These included:

“(A) issue guidelines ensuring and maximizing the quality, objectivity, utility, and integrity of information (including statistical information) disseminated by the agency, by not later than 1 year after the date of issuance of the guidelines under subsection (a);

“(B) establish administrative mechanisms allowing affected persons to seek and obtain correction of information maintained and disseminated by the agency that does not comply with the guidelines issued under subsection (a)…

Despite this attempt to make government accountable for its statements, by 2020 the US government and most other governments were in full disinformation mode, lying about almost every aspect of COVID, especially regarding treatments.

It’s not easy to maintain lies about so many things, especially when they were things of great import to virtually all the worlds’ citizens. If the lies were placed next to the truth in a contest, and worthy citizens were able to provide support for each on a public stage, the truth would unquestionably win. So the truth had to be suppressed.

The method chosen, used worldwide, was the creation of a bogeyman: misinformation and disinformation.

The NY Times can always be relied on for hyperbole about threats. This new one threatened democracy itself!

There is wide agreement across the federal government that coordinated disinformation campaigns threaten to exacerbate public health emergencies, stoke ethnic and racial divisions and even undermine democracy itself. (July 2020)

A ‘whole of society’ approach was needed to quench mis/disinformation wherever it might appear, because it was such a dire menace.

According to Surgeon-General Vivek Murthy, "

Health misinformation is a serious threat to public health. It can cause confusion,
sow mistrust, harm people’s health, and undermine public health efforts. Limiting
the spread of health misinformation is a moral and civic imperative
that will require a whole-of-society effort.

Misinformation has caused confusion and led people to decline COVID-19 vaccines, reject public health measures such as masking and physical distancing, and use unproven treatments. For example, a recent study showed that even brief exposure to COVID-19 vaccine misinformation made people less likely to want a COVID-19 vaccine.

The Department of Homeland Security pivoted from concerns about external threats to concern about misinformation. The DHS also worked with state and local officials to control the spread. Not the spread of COVID.

State and local officials play a critical role in countering the abundance of false COVID-19 information that is spreading through public information channels. This toolkit is intended to be used by state, local, tribal and territorial officials. COVID-19 is and will continue to be a threat to public health. Throughout the COVID-19 pandemic disinformation, much of it produced and amplified by foreign actors, has consisted of false treatment and prevention measures, unsubstantiated rumors regarding the origin of the virus, and more. As such, it is imperative that State and local officials continually convey timely, trusted, and verified COVID-19 details and developments to their constituents to avert a vacuum of credible information, which can be exploited for misuse as disinformation by bad actors.

Does that even make sense?

The OECD of course was all in, too. The OECD considers itself “at the heart of international co-operation. Our Member countries work with other countries, organisations and stakeholders worldwide to address the pressing policy challenges of our time.”

The OECD repeated the identical buzzwords used in the US, including ‘whole of society,’ and ‘infodemic,’ and it shares the definition of mis, dis and malinformation with the US’ Department of Homeland Security. Here are a few sentences, but the OECD misinfo website is worth a look, as it is more explicit and thereby more transparent than the USG misinformation websites. For example:

The global spread of Coronavirus (COVID-19) has been accompanied by a wave of disinformation that is undermining policy responses and amplifying distrust and concern among citizens. Around the world, governments are leveraging public communication to counteract disinformation and support policy.… In sum, disinformation threatens the efficacy of and compliance with the emergency measures being enacted against the Coronavirus

Clearly it is of the utmost importance to the newest world order that all challenges to the public health COVID narrative be destroyed. Doctors, who have authority to speak about such things, must be made to speak in one voice. But the practice of medicine is regulated at the state level, not at the federal level. So doctors must be controlled by the states.

This was first done by having the nonprofit Federation of State Medical Boards (FSMB) issue a policy in July 2021 against COVID misinformation, and push it out to the state medical boards who are its members. However, despite issuing such a policy, the vast majority of state medical boards refused to follow it, knowing that suppression of free speech was illegal in the US.

So the FSMB acknowledged this obstacle, adopting an updated policy document in April 2022:

As state medical boards screen and triage complaints about misinformation and disinformation and adjudicate cases, they may have concerns about facing challenges on First Amendment grounds for disciplinary action that restricts a physician’s right to speech.

Then the FSMB provided detailed advice (including case law) on how boards could nonetheless find additional grounds with which to prosecute unruly physicians like me who still believed in honesty and informed consent. The FSMB furthermore chided the majority of boards that had not gone along with the policy.

While the FSMB had managed to frighten most doctors into submission, there were still many states where doctors could freely tell patients the truth, prescribe early COVID treatments, and continue their business as usual. Some states (all Republican-ruled) had protected their medical practitioners from abuse by guaranteeing the right of patients and doctors to use early treatments, either by passing laws or by state attorneys general issuing opinions about the right to use early treatments like ivermectin.

The next step in the effort to criminalize truth and deny patients informed consent and the right to choose their own healthcare was to use the legislatures in Democrat-ruled states.

California, home to a pretty boy, know-nothing Governor who got scooped up by Klaus Schwab long ago and a pharma-owned legislature, was logically the best place to start. California’s candidates and committees at the state level had mopped up 45.5% of total Pharma contributions made to state politicians—in the entire country. Over the 20 years from 1999-2018, California pols raked in $399 million dollars. $123 million was spent in 2016 alone, the year after infamous bill SB277 passed, removing personal belief exemptions to vaccinations. To be fair, there was also a ballot measure to reduce drug costs in 2016, which was defeated. Pharma is able to channel very large contributions to ballot measure committees, for which there are no contribution limits!

Since Pharma already owned the Golden State’s politicians, and was pushing other illegal policies (such as allowing children to consent to vaccinations without parental permission) it made sense to start the criminalization of medical speech there. California’s Assembly and Senate speedily passed AB2098 in late August, and Governor Newsom signed it into law yesterday, September 30.

But AB2098 (Titled Physicians and Surgeons: Unprofessional Conduct )is premised on a series of lies stated right in the bill. Here they are:

(b) Data from the federal Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention (CDC) shows that unvaccinated individuals are at a
risk of dying from COVID-19 that is 11 times greater than those
who are fully vaccinated. (Gross lie: you are at higher risk of death from COVID if vaccinated, now—Nass)

(c) The safety and efficacy of COVID-19 vaccines have been
confirmed
through evaluation by the federal Food and Drug
Administration (FDA) and the vaccines continue to undergo
intensive safety monitoring by the CDC.

(d) The spread of misinformation and disinformation about
COVID-19 vaccines has weakened public confidence and placed
lives at serious risk

(e) Major news outlets have reported that some of the most
dangerous propagators of inaccurate information regarding the
COVID-19 vaccines are licensed health care professionals
.

(f) The Federation of State Medical Boards has released a
statement warning that physicians who engage in the dissemination
of COVID-19 vaccine misinformation or disinformation risk losing
their medical license, and that physicians have a duty to provide
their patients with accurate, science-based information
. (I guess this one is true, but its interpretation of accuracy and science is not—Nass)

California is a lost cause. And the people know it. Between April 2020 and July 2021, California lost nearly 1% of its population.  This is the first time in recorded history that CA has seen a drop in population. 

California’s legislators will vote for anything, when instructed to do so. I can only recommend that its honest doctors relocate, along with so many others who are leaving the golden state for greener pastures.

What about the rest of the country? This is a shot across the bow. Elected officials are important, and so are clean elections. If we let this continue, soon there will be nowhere to go. Good people need to run for office. Good people need to get to know their candidates.

The misinformation/disinformation meme has worked for the bad guys so far. We need to challenge it wherever we find it. We need to talk about how it has been used as a major strategy to silence the opposition. Censorship may in fact be the biggest threat to our democracy.

Maybe some clever lawyers can find a way to use that 2000 bill prohibiting the federal government from spreading lies and turn the tables on the misinformation meme.

For patients who want the right to obtain honest information from their physicians and want to have choices regarding their medical treatment, now is the time to speak up. The screws are tightening. This could be your last chance.

Medical truth was criminalized by California today/ AP

Gavin Newsom perhaps thought burying the news on Friday afternoon would be best for his future career. But we won't forget.

California: Docs may be disciplined for spreading COVID lies

From the AP:

SACRAMENTO, Calif. (AP) — Doctors who spread coronavirus lies could be disciplined for unprofessional conduct in California under a law signed Friday by Gov. Gavin Newsom.

The bill, AB2098, introduced by Democratic Assembly Member Evan Low, declares that a physician or surgeon commits professional misconduct if they disseminate “misinformation or disinformation” about the nature and risks of COVID-19, its prevention and treatment and the development, safety and effectiveness of vaccines.

A doctor who commits such conduct could face discipline by the state medical board or osteopathic medical board and in severe cases, could potentially lose their license to practice in California.

It was the last remaining vaccine-related bill of note after the more controversial measures didn’t pass.

Since the COVID-19 pandemic began in 2018, more than 95,000 Californians have died, according to figures from the state Department of Public Health.

More than 80% of the population has been vaccinated with at least one dose of a COVID-19 vaccine but Low’s bill said the spread of disinformation about vaccines “has weakened public confidence and placed lives at serious risk.”

The bill’s language says that the Federation of State Medical Boards has warned that physicians who spread misinformation or disinformation “risk losing their medical license, and ... have a duty to provide their patients with accurate, science-based information.”
