Top heart doc: COVID vaccines to blame for sudden deaths of young athletes

WND ^ | 01/21/2023 | Peter Labarbera

[Jan_Sobieski]

A world-renowned heart doctor and epidemiologist who has led the way in countering the government's "safe and effective" COVID-19 vaccine narrative says COVID shots and boosters are responsible for the "explosion" in sudden deaths of young people.

Dr. Peter McCullough of The Wellness Company studied the "sudden deaths" of young athletes over time and said there is no sensible explanation other than the often-mandated COVID vaccines for what he says is a tenfold increase in such tragedies since 2020. That is when the experimental mRNA (messenger RNA) vaccinations were launched.

The very accessible McCullough is the most visible among a band of dissenting doctors who have steadfastly resisted governments' and corporations' rigid COVID policies. For that, he has been heralded by conservatives the world over, with one Australian online broadcaster, Maria Zeee, calling him "the shining light in the darkness." In a typical interview, McCullough will cite a half-dozen scientific studies from memory. He has criticized:

The mass vaccination of citizens, including COVID shots for pregnant women and young children;

The government's suppression of COVID treatment options, e.g., what he calls the "Nobel prize-winning wonder drug," Ivermectin, and its spreading of falsehoods about such protocols. (McCullough developed his own home protocol for treating COVID, which is used worldwide.);

Mask mandates, which he says lack scientific support; and Lockdowns that crippled small businesses and closed down schools…

Some guy:

There’s an important difference between Dr. McCoullough and you.

Pelham:

McCoullough is an outstanding doctor and academic. He is the most published author of peer-reviewed scientific studies in his field, which is heart medicine. In every interview, he studiously cites recent scientific studies by memory. You, on the other hand, are a shitbag.

Ahahahahahahaha!!!

This guy's sure got YOUR number, Pelham.

Death itself was listed as a potential side effect all the way back in the initial tests, which is one of the main reasons they wanted that information sealed for 50+ years

Death is a potential side effect of every vaccination - anaphylaxis can occur.

And Pfizer never wanted the clinical trial data withheld. The FDA wanted to slow-roll the redactions because they said they didn't have the resources to do it.

There has been a direct correlation between the vaccines and death acknowledged in many cases since then, including admissions by the main government institutions.

Oh really? Show me one of these acknowledgements.

This is the CDC's statement as of today:

" FDA requires healthcare providers to report any death after COVID-19 vaccination to VAERS, even if it’s unclear whether the vaccine was the cause. Reports of adverse events to VAERS following vaccination, including deaths, do not necessarily mean that a vaccine caused a health problem. More than 666 million doses of COVID-19 vaccines were administered in the United States from December 14, 2020, through January 11, 2023. During this time, VAERS received 18,649 preliminary reports of death (0.0028%) among people who received a COVID-19 vaccine. CDC and FDA clinicians review reports of death to VAERS including death certificates, autopsy, and medical records. Continued monitoring has identified nine deaths causally associated with J&J/Janssen COVID-19 vaccination. CDC and FDA continue to review reports of death following COVID-19 vaccination and update information as it becomes available."

Robert Malone makes well over $5M a year from his anti-vaxxer newsletter.

Do you have proof of that? I am more inclined to think he gets something like $5K for his substack blog page. He has a recent book out, but I doubt he has made $5M for a pre-signing bonus and current book sales.

“Isn’t it accepted that the shots are the root cause of myocarditis and pericarditis? Both of which often result in myocardial infarctions?”

Could be, but the article failed to cite any research for this statement.

“In a Jan. 15 interview with Zeee Media, McCullough explained: “The straight line is this: the [NFL] teams mandated the vaccine. The FDA [U.S. Food & Drug Administration] says the vaccines cause myocarditis (heart damage) and blood clots. The autopsy studies that are done, when they identify people dying after [taking] the vaccine, show myocarditis and blood clots as the cause of death. And now we have this rash of sudden deaths.””

The article presents Dr. McCullough’s claims about the FDA’s statements regarding autopsy studies without providing any references or links for readers to independently verify his statements. It is essential for readers to be able to access the sources and data used to make such claims in order to make informed decisions, and it is reasonable to ask for this information to be provided. It’s important to be critical and to verify any information with reliable sources such as the FDA or other government health organizations before making a conclusion.

Could this article be an editorial piece intended to be deguise as a news piece? Editorials express opinions and often do not include fact-checking and sourcing a news article would.

I don’t know what your distrust is but your comment is unconvincing. You are not an MD and give no rationale for your condemnation.

[Golden Eagle]

Obviously, they want deaths reported, because they know they do exist, and have acknowledged them before, and want to investigate them further.

Just as you are, now. But your original statement attempted to claim they weren’t happening, at all, which was a dangerous lie.

[yldstrk]

Thank you fireman15

“We have proof that the vaccines are very effective in preventing hospitalizations and deaths.”

Do you have link to this proof that the vaccine is effective since you stated “We have proof”?

Who is “We”?

Is this an account for some type of group on the internet?

It’s possible that the vaccinated individuals who did not require hospitalization were generally healthy, while non-vaccinated individuals who were hospitalized may have had underlying health conditions similar to those of hospitalized vaccinated individuals.

Come on. Personal attacks are not cool. Stop.

HCQ worked for PDJT. It is used for malaria, as is Ivermectin, which also treats WuFlu.

President Trump used HCQ as a prophylactic before he contracted Covid. Not sure if he was using it up to the time he had Covid. It is not listed as one of the several drugs he used to treat Covid after he became ill. He had Regeneron and Remdesivir (and six(?) other drugs, some OTC and used for other ailments).

First of all, any study on this subject that is based on data outside of a clinical study with control groups is meaningless. There are several reasons why this is the case, but the biggest one is this: Studies with large numbers of general population figures cannot accurately determine vaccination status. As one medical professional here on FR pointed out in a similar discussion last year, vaccination status is "self-reported," and in his medical facility the staff can only definitively know the vaccination status of a COVID patient if the patient was vaccinated in the same hospital system where they are being treated for COVID.

Secondly, any study conducted outside controlled samples will not have an accurate accounting of health factors related to vaccine status. In Israel, for example, the earliest studies of COVID morbidity relative to vaccine status were dismissed out of hand because of this statistical flaw. They showed very high rates of hospitalization and death among non-vaccinated patients, but what the studies didn't take into account was that most unvaccinated Israelis were not vaccinated because they had major health risks that their doctors identified as reasons NOT to be vaccinated. In other words, the higher death rates were among patients who were already disproportionately predisposed to have health complications anyway.

Lastly ... I randomly picked one of those studies you linked and immediately have questions about the validity of the samples and the results. The summary findings indicate that ICU admissions and death among non-vaccinated patients is orders of magnitude higher than among vaccinated patients, and yet the sample size for non-vaccinated people is 4x larger. Without doing a meticulous review of the data I did a quick adjustment of the numbers based on a "normalized" comparison of the two samples, and it looks to me as if the hospitalization and morbidity rates are almost the same.

You are a very foolish person who gets his jollies from hijacking threads on Covid. You ignore mountains of data that even the Biden administration the CDC and the FDA is now finding very hard to ignore, not to mention other parts of the world. You ask for links that you never read or look at and make uninformed responses based on nothing but your own preconceived notions.

It hardly matters... the entire narrative with the “vaccines” is beginning to crumble and taking down leaders all around the world who placed their faith in them and in many cases forced them on their populations. And the worst is yet to come for those who went lockstep with this madness.

[semimojo]

You are not an MD and give no rationale for your condemnation.

It's mostly based on McCullough's knowing and dishonest use of a list of random deaths of people of any age and from any cause to compare to a very select list of sudden cardiac deaths in young athletes.

[semimojo]

But your original statement attempted to claim they weren’t happening, at all, which was a dangerous lie.

Did you read the part where they investigated each reported death and found 9 were due to the vaccines?

And all of those to the J&J version?

I've always said there have been 9 deaths officially attributed to the vaccines.

[semimojo]

First of all, any study on this subject that is based on data outside of a clinical study with control groups is meaningless.

Ah yes. The old "we can never really know anything"" argument.

You asked for links. I provided multiple ones to multiple sources. I offered to provide many, many more.

You hand wave them away.

Bad faith.

Malone’s newslette has over 134,000 subscribers. $5 per month. That would be $60 annual. Slightly over $8 Million per year.

I hijack threads about Covid by talking about...Covid?

Such as?

You're wrong about that. You just posted a YouTube link which I watched and commented on.

Show me a link I've ignored.

[Alberta's Child]

The old "we can never really know anything"" argument.

Uh, no.

I have worked in a STEM field for nearly 30 years, and I know what a scientific study is.

I also know what a highly flawed statistical analysis is. I use them all the time -- because in a lot of my work that is the best we have. When I use these resources I include many caveats and disclaimers in my project documentation so the readers know the limitations of what I'm producing. I often warn my clients NOT to make major, consequential decisions on the basis of this work -- but to instead use this work as a foundation for something much more detailed, comprehensive and definitive.

[gas_dr]

Nope. I am, however, happy to speak for the truth.

[gas_dr]

The pandemic is over
It is y’all who continue to speak untruths
As I said I no of sr recommend vaccine because the disease is endemic and mild. The vaccine served its purpose in saving lives. There is no plethora of dead bodies from the vaccination despite what St Peter of antivaxx says.

And despite what JL says she is foreleg incorrect. She stares St Peter of Antivaxx is credentialed. Nope. He lost them. No longer boarded. No longer on staff at multiple places. He is merely a defrocked MD who has lost his certification as expert. Rightly so. He went off the deep bend.

You really do like to try and revise the record don’t you? Sorry. Won’t let it happen.
