Anthrax Vaccine

GAO's Survey of Guard and Reserve Pilots and Aircrew

Gao ID: GAO-02-445

September 20, 2002

GAO reviewed the views of pilots and aircrew members of the Air National Guard and Air Force Reserve regarding the Anthrax Vaccine Immunization Program (AVIP) of the Department of Defense (DOD). In December 1997, the Secretary of Defense announced a plan to inoculate U.S. forces against the potential battlefield use of anthrax as a biological warfare (BW) agent. In the context of the conventional battlefield, the nature and magnitude of the military BW threat has not changed materially since 1990 in terms of the number of countries suspected of developing BW capability, the types of BW agents they possess, or their ability to weaponize and deliver BW agents. In marked contrast to other mandatory DOD immunization requirements, GAO's sample survey in 2000 showed that AVIP was at that time adversely affecting the retention of trained and experienced guard and reserve pilots and aircrew members. Between September 1998 and September 2000, 16 percent of the pilots and aircrew members of the guard and reserve had (1) transferred to another unit (primarily to nonflying positions to avoid or delay receiving the anthrax shots), (2) moved to inactive status, or (3) left the military. Additionally, one in five of those still participating in or assigned to a unit in 2000 indicated their intention to leave in the near future. At the time of the survey, two-thirds of the guard and reserve pilots and aircrew members did not support DOD's mandatory AVIP or any future immunization programs planned for other BW agents. However, these negative views did not appear to indicate a general antivaccine bias. On the basis of the survey, GAO estimated that 37 percent of the guard and reserve pilots and aircrew members had received one or more anthrax shots as of September 2000. Of these recipients, 85 percent reported experiencing some type of reaction. This overall rate reported for adverse reactions following anthrax immunization was more than double the rate published in the vaccine manufacturer's product insert that was in use at the time of the survey. Respondents to the survey indicated that they had not reported most of the reactions they cited to the military chain of command through official or informal channels and that they were not reported to Food and Drug Administration's Vaccine Adverse Events Reporting System (VAERS). Reasons survey respondents gave for not reporting to the military chain of command included a lack of awareness of VAERS, a concern about the loss of flight status, a possibly adverse effect on military or civilian career, and a fear of ridicule.

Kids Who Had Mild/Asymptomatic COVID Still Have Antibodies Months Later

https://www.zerohedge.com/covid-19/kids-who-had-mildasymptomatic-covid-still-have-antibodies-months-later

Researchers have found robust antibody responses up to four months after infection in children and adolescents who had mild to asymptomatic cases of COVID-19.

The study found that the children and adolescents who previously had COVID-19 developed antibody responses capable of neutralizing the SARS-CoV-2 virus. Further, these responses were comparable or superior to those observed in adults.

“The study shows that children who’ve had mild infections or even those who did not have any symptoms, develop an immune response that will likely provide some protection against future infections,” said co-lead author Jillian Hurst, assistant professor in the pediatrics department at Duke University School of Medicine.

The researchers evaluated the SARS-CoV-2-specific immune responses in 69 children and adolescents, with ages ranging from 2 months old to 21 years old. The median age of participants was 11.5 years, and 51 percent were female.

The researchers measured antibody responses among children and adolescents with asymptomatic and mild symptomatic SARS-CoV-2 infection and found that the antibody response didn’t differ based on the presence of symptoms, and SARS-CoV-2 neutralizing antibodies remained detectable in the majority of participants up to four months after infection.

The researchers also compared the children’s immune responses to those of adults. They found that all children, regardless of age group, had equivalent or slightly higher levels of antibodies than adults at two months and four months after acute infection.

“Most studies of the immune responses of children to SARS-CoV-2 have focused on patients hospitalized for severe COVID-19 or multi-system inflammatory syndrome in children (MIS-C), or have assessed immunity only during acute infection,” Fouda said.

“Our study provides important information that SARS-CoV-2-specific immune responses, regardless of disease severity, may decline over time more slowly in children and adolescents.”

The study of 69 children appears in JCI Insight.

The study received funding from the Duke University School of Medicine; the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs, Veterans Health Administration, Office of Research and Development; the National Institutes of Health; the U.S. Defense Advanced Projects Agency; and Virology Quality Assurance. COVID-19 samples were processed at the Duke Regional Biocontainment Laboratory, which received partial support for construction from NIH.

First Autopsy of Dead Person Vaccinated for Covid Found to Contain Spike Proteins in Every Organ of Body

https://dailyexpose.co.uk/2021/08/04/first-autopsy-of-dead-person-vaccinated-for-covid-found-to-contain-spike-proteins-in-every-organ-of-body/

Researchers from Germany conducted the world’s first-ever postmortem study on a corpse that had been vaccinated against Covid-19 prior to their death. They discovered that every single organ of the deceased person’s body had become infested with spike proteins as a result of the vaccine.

The German scientific report titled “First case of postmortem study in a patient vaccinated against SARS-CoV-2”, which was published in June 2021, examined the autopsy of an 86-year-old man who had received a single dose of the Covid-19 vaccine but died a month later after becoming infected with Coronavirus by a nearby patient at a hospital.

According to the report, the man had a medical history including systemic arterial hypertension, chronic venous insufficiency, dementia, and prostate carcinoma.

The report, which was published in the International Journal of Infectious Diseases, states that on January 9th, 20201, “the man received lipid nanoparticle-formulated, nucleoside-modified RNA vaccine BNT162b2 in a 30 μg dose.” Just 18 days after his dose of the vaccine, the man was admitted to the hospital for worsening diarrhea, where an “antigen test and polymerase chain reaction (PCR) for SARS-CoV-2 were negative.”

However, by day 25, the vaccinated patient tested positive for Covid-19, presumably from a nearby Covid-infected patient in the hospital, and he, unfortunately, died of kidney and respiratory failure the following day.

According to the report, researchers found that the patient’s entire body had become overrun with high viral RNA loads, also known as vaccine-induced spike proteins.

The study concluded: “In summary, the results of our autopsy case study in a patient with mRNA vaccine confirm the view that by first dose of vaccination against SARS-CoV-2 immunogenicity can already be induced, while sterile immunity is not adequately developed.”

In other words, whilst the Covid-19 vaccine triggered an immune response within the body, it did not seem to stop the spread of the virus throughout the body or the spike proteins that caused his organs to fail.

This bombshell study only confirms our worst fears that the Covid vaccine causes more harm than good, and may actually even accelerate the spread of the virus.

Federal appeals judge: Implementing critical race theory would violate civil rights law

Judge James Ho warns agency regulators not to apply trendy legal theories to the Civil Rights Act.

Critical race theory flies in the face of the federal Civil Rights Act by presuming that racial disparities are the result of racial discrimination, a federal appeals court judge wrote in a concurrence.

A black property owner alleged that a Texas navigation district committed racial discrimination by threatening to condemn properties and conspiring with city officials to keep property values low in his neighborhood, so it could acquire them for a channel improvement project. The East End of Freeport was created as a "Negro reservation" and remains majority-minority, though Hispanics heavily outnumber blacks.

The 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals rejected Manning Rollerson's racial discrimination claim because he didn't allege "facts supporting the contention that racial discrimination played some supporting role in the Port’s decision-making," which has a "legitimate motivation" in the need to acquire land around the Velasco Terminal.

Judge James Ho, nominated by President Trump, joined most of the opinion but wrote separately to express his concerns about "unelected agency officials usurping Congress’s authority when it comes to disparate impact theory," which lies behind Rollerson's lawsuit.

Title VI of the Civil Rights Act targets "intentional" racial discrimination, not "neutral policies untainted by racial intent that happen to lead to racially disproportionate outcomes," Ho wrote.

"There’s a big difference between prohibiting racial discrimination and endorsing disparate impact theory. … It’s the difference between securing equality of opportunity regardless of race and guaranteeing equality of outcome based on race. It’s the difference between color blindness and critical race theory."

Ho contrasted Martin Luther King's "I Have a Dream" speech, which seeks a nation where children "will not be judged by the color of their

skin," with the book "How to Be an Anti-Racist" by critical race theorist Ibram Kendi, which deems racist "any measure that produces or sustains racial inequity between racial groups."

Disparate impact theory requires looking at race to suss out racial imbalance, but the Supreme Court has held that racial balancing is "patently unconstitutional," Ho continued.

It also requires "a legal presumption that evidence of racial imbalance is evidence of racial discrimination," which runs headlong into the "bedrock" principle of innocent until proven guilty. The result is often racial discrimination in the service of balancing, he said.

"My point is simply this: If disparate impact theory is going to be incorporated into federal law, it should be done by Congress—not agency regulators," Ho concluded. "Citizens are understandably skeptical when government officials claim that they’re just here to help—but then declare that up is down, left is right, race consciousness is good, and race neutrality is bad."

Cornell law professor William Jacobson flagged the concurrence in a Monday blog post, calling Ho "a likely Supreme Court nominee when Republicans regain the White House."

Jacobson told Just the News it was the first mention of critical race theory or Kendi by name in a court opinion that he had seen. "Judge Ho’s views are constitutionally correct as well as correct under existing anti-discrimination law," he wrote in an email. "It is only a matter of time before the court system is forced to confront racism in the name of so-called 'antiracism.'"

According to a bombshell report from Judicial Watch on Tuesday, the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) has paid at least $2.7 million into a University of Pittsburgh (Pitt) initiative that allegedly employs a tissue bank with organs from aborted fetuses.

Alex Jones the host of ‘InfoWars‘ who has been blocked by Youtube, Facebook and other tech companies because of claims that his show “Infowars “expressly and principally promotes, advocates, or incites hatred or violence against a group or individual based on characteristics,” according to Spotify’s own words.

In 2019 Alex Jones appeared on the podcast show ‘The Joe Rogan Experience’ to explain how fetal organ harvesting works and people went on to call him insane and a conspiracy theorist for making the suggestion.

Jack Posobiec shared a clip to Twitter from the podcast of Alex Jones in early 2019.
