New study of Pfizer's COVID vaccine has some disturbing findings
American Thinker ^ | 8 Jan, 2022 | Bill Hansmann

Have the drug companies been intentionally misleading us?

I just read a disturbing study of the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine's efficacy by the Canadian COVID Care Alliance. This organization comprises over 500 independent Canadian doctors, scientists, and health care practitioners. The title of the article, "The Pfizer Inoculations for COVID-19: More Harm Than Good," is disturbing. The article itself, which discusses the many nuances of this study, is even more distressing.

You may recall the much-reported "95% efficacy" of the vaccine against COVID-19. We all assumed that if we were vaccinated, we would then only have a 5% chance of becoming infected. Sounds great, but the statement is misleading. In the Pfizer study, only 8 out of 18,198, or 0.043% of participants who received the vaccine, contracted COVID, while 162 out of 18,325, 0.884% in the control group who received injections of saline became infected. Therefore, while there was a Relative Risk Reduction of 95%, the Actual Risk Reduction was a mere 0.84%.

This disparity certainly changes one's perspective on just how effective the vaccine is. Everyone in the study, including the control group, had a less than 1% chance of infection. Of course, as the virus spread throughout the population, a higher percentage of people became infected. The conclusions of the study remain the same insofar as the likelihood of the vaccine preventing infection in any given controlled group of persons.

The article also asserts, among other things, that the study was conducted on relatively young and healthy persons but was then recommended to be used first on old, less healthy individuals. The trials did not follow scientific protocols, owing to the desire for rapid deployment. Follow-up studies were made virtually impossible because as subjects were unblinded — made aware of whether they had received the vaccine or the placebo.

I read the entire article. It was the fact that the author was then trying to send you to another link to get the pertinent facts that was aggravating.

“The vax shills are either incredibly stupid or wicked liars and deceivers. Nether is good.”

It’s a cult.

Every pharmaceutical that is test for years at great expense has a whole boat load of downsides. And they’re telling us that this warp speed injection is totally safe. You’d have to be crazy, stupid or hypnotized to believe that.

— “Phase 1/2/3 running concurrently because that’s normal. Completion date May 2, 2023”

So what you are validating is that this is still a liability-shielded, continuing experiment that many want to require participation in by legal mandate.

Thanks, interesting article.

I am not "Anti-Vax" if it is clearly necessary and properly tested. Those at high risk should probably consider the COVID vax. I am against mandatory vaccination for something, that for healthy people, is not much different than the flu. What I am fully against, and that I won't participate in is the agenda that seems to be appearing:

1. The pandemic is to force you to get the vaccine

2. The vaccine is to force you to get the vaccine passport

3. The vaccine passport is to push you into the social credit system

4. The social credit system is to force you into obeying the government

The ‘President’ thinks that it’s OK to mandate that stuff but I’m old enough to remember how a much narrower kind of ‘mandate’ cost a guy HIS career:

Why is it of for the ‘President’ to kick this s&%t in our faces and a guy like Perry had to bite the dust over HIS mandate?

That’s what just blows my mind about the present situation we’re in. When they rolled out the vaccines, I wrongfully assumed that the Karens and leftists would be happy that they’re “protected” now and would leave us to our own decisions. But I couldn’t have been any more wrong. The fact that their vaccine doesn’t work only enrages them and they want to blame us, the unvaccinated for their problems and their own personal failures.

A spirit of evil had descended upon the world and upon it’s leaders. We must pray fervently to overcome it.

Yes, there is a long term study being done.

It's being done in real time and we are all in it.

Hope you are in the control group.

Unfortunately, the data is being falsified.

Unfortunately for the idiots and murderers with medical degrees, the bottom line is that serously disturbing death figures are surfacing:

Even seeing this information there are millions of idiots who will get in line to get their poison death shot boosters. IF you were dumb enough to get the shots, don't shorten your life even more by getting the booster scams.

Yep, actually in hindsight, I believe she said ‘we are the control group’ (the ones just vaccinated at the time) which isn’t true either. They have no discernment for what comes out of their mouth and how utterly ridiculous it sounds-yet they pass it on and continue to repeat it as truth. And it works: say it enough times with authority from a place of perceived authority and majority of people believe it. And believe it without a second thought or attempt to research and verify for themselves. And here we are. Very disappointed in most of fellow man and friends and family.
