I got the pfizer-bioNtech vaccine on march 29th. No side effects.
I also got the flu vaccine for this year. The tenderness from the flu vaccine lasted longer than the covid shot.

Scheduled to go back July 29th for 2nd dose.
The covid vaccine only last as long as a flu vaccine.
Good for a year then you have to go back and get another one for the following year.

That's still unknown. Seems Pfizer may need a booster for some of the variants. There are studies going on about changes to immune response over time but the vaccine hasn't been around long enough for any real world data.

COVID-19 vaccine safety in doubt as more than 56,000 adverse events reported

Every day, there are new headlines in the mainstream media downplaying the side effects that people are experiencing from the COVID-19 vaccines being pushed on people in massive vaccination campaigns around the world – even as some people are dying from the vaccine. It is not difficult to find articles where various health experts have said that side effects and deaths from the shot are rare and should not prevent people from getting it.

However, the numbers do not lie, and the story they tell is far more damning. According to Children’s Health Defense, there have been 56,869 adverse events reported following the COVID-19 vaccine so far. This includes 7,971 serious injuries and 2,342 deaths between December 14, 2020 and April 1, 2021. On April 13, the CDC reported on its website that the number of deaths that have been reported since December 2020 had increased to 3,005.

One very important thing to keep in mind is the fact that many adverse effects of this and many other vaccines are never reported to the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System that is operated by the Department of Health and Human Services. Healthcare providers are required to report certain events to the system, but a survey has shown that less than 20 percent of healthcare providers actually use the system. Although that data came from 2005, it seems unlikely that the situation has changed much in the intervening years. Not only are some – indeed, many – of these effects going intentionally unreported, countless others are being missed, downplayed or outright dismissed.

Vaccines can be more dangerous in general population than they are in trials
Many groups of patients were excluded from the vaccines’ clinical trials, such as people who are immunocompromised. Many of these individuals are now being given the vaccine despite insufficient data about its safety in their subpopulations – something that is noted in an FDA briefing document on the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine.

One Israeli study recently found that patients with autoimmune inflammatory rheumatic diseases are experiencing herpes zoster, a painful and irritating skin infection that can lead to nerve damage, following the vaccine. This is just one of many effects that the trials would not have detected. There are likely to be many similar issues becoming obvious as more and more people get vaccines as part of the major rollouts that are currently underway throughout the world.

The FDA warned about this concern in a December 2020 briefing, stating that using the vaccine “in large numbers of individuals may reveal additional, potentially less frequent and/or more serious adverse events not detected” in the official trials because they only used healthy individuals.

An additional risk the FDA warned about that may come to light in the near future is that of vaccine-enhanced disease over time and waning immunity. This means that the people who have received the vaccine could have an even worse response if they are exposed to the virus again in the future.

All of this serves as yet another reminder that these vaccines that people are so desperately trying to get appointments for and proudly showing off on social media remain very much experimental. Even more disconcerting is the fact that vaccine manufacturers have been granted immunity from liability for any adverse events that these vaccines cause as part of an incentive by the government to speed up development and keep costs down. Moreover, people cannot sue the FDA for authorizing a vaccine for emergency use that causes them harm.

If vaccine companies cannot be held liable for killing you with their shots, what motivation do they have to ensure a safe vaccine?

Anti-Vaccine Activists Peddle Theories That Covid Shots Are Deadly, Undermining Vaccination


Anti-vaccine groups are exploiting the suffering and death of people who happen to fall ill after receiving a covid shot, threatening to undermine the largest vaccination campaign in U.S. history.

In some cases, anti-vaccine activists are fabricating stories of deaths that never occurred.

“This is exactly what anti-vaccine groups do,” said Dr. Peter Hotez, an infectious diseases specialist and author of “Preventing the Next Pandemic: Vaccine Diplomacy in a Time of Anti-Science.”

Anti-vaccine groups have falsely claimed for decades that childhood vaccines cause autism, weaving fantastic conspiracy theories involving government, Big Business and the media.

Now, the same groups are blaming patients’ coincidental medical problems on covid shots, even when it’s clear that age or underlying health conditions are to blame, Hotez said. “They will sensationalize anything that happens after someone gets a vaccine and attribute it to the vaccine,” Hotez said.

As more seniors receive their first covid shots, many will inevitably suffer from unrelated heart attacks, strokes and other serious medical problems — not because of the vaccine but, rather, their age and declining health, said epidemiologist Michael Osterholm, director of the University of Minnesota’s Center for Infectious Disease Research and Policy.

For example, in a group of 10 million people — about the number of Americans who have been vaccinated so far — nearly 800 people ages 55 to 64 typically die of heart attacks or coronary disease in one week, Osterholm said. Public health officials “are not ready” for the onslaught of news and social media stories to come, he cautioned.

“The media will write a story that John Doe got his vaccine at 8 a.m. and at 4 p.m. he had a heart attack,” Osterholm said on his weekly podcast. “They will make assumptions that it’s cause and effect.”

Public health officials need to do a better job communicating the risks — real and imagined — from vaccines, said Osterholm, who has been advising President Joe Biden on the pandemic since his election.

“You get one chance to make a first impression,” Osterholm said. “Even if we come back later and say, “No, [the deaths] had nothing to do with vaccination, it was coronary artery disease,’ the damage has already been done.”

Anti-vaccine groups such as the National Vaccine Information Center and Children’s Health Defense, founded by Robert F. Kennedy Jr., are already inflaming fears about a handful of deaths — mostly in Europe — that have followed the worldwide rollout of immunizations.

In a blog post, Kennedy scoffed at autopsy results that concluded a Portuguese woman’s death was unrelated to a vaccine. He cast doubt on statements by medical authorities in Denmark who said the deaths of two people there after vaccination were due to old age and chronic lung disease. In an interview, Kennedy said the post-vaccination deaths of some very frail and terminally ill nursing home patients in Norway are a danger sign. Norwegian officials have said the elderly patients died of their underlying illnesses, not from the vaccine.

“Coincidence is turning out to be quite lethal to COVID vaccine recipients,” Kennedy wrote. Kennedy described the deaths as suspicious, accusing medical officials of following an “all-too-familiar vaccine propaganda playbook” and “strategic chicanery.”

Here in the U.S., vaccine opponents have pounced on the tragedy of Dr. Gregory Michael, a 56-year-old Florida obstetrician-gynecologist, to sow doubts about vaccine safety and government oversight. Michael died Jan. 5 after suffering a catastrophic drop in platelets — elements in the blood that control bleeding — suggesting he may have developed immune thrombocytopenia..

According to a Facebook post by his wife, Heidi Neckelmann, doctors tried a variety of treatments to save her husband, but none worked.

A spokesperson for the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said the agency is investigating Michael’s death, as it does for all suspected vaccine-related health problems. California authorities have recommended pausing vaccinations with a particular batch of covid vaccines made by Moderna because of a high rate of allergic reactions.

“We’re going to see these events happen, and we have to follow up on every one of these cases,” Osterholm said. “I don’t want people to think that we’re sweeping them under the rug.”

Many Americans were already nervous about covid vaccines, with 27% saying they “probably or definitely” would not get a shot, even if the shots were free and deemed safe by scientists, according to a December survey by KFF. (KHN is an editorially independent program of KFF.)

These people may be particularly susceptible to vaccine misinformation, said Rory Smith, an investigator at First Draft News, a nonprofit that reports on misinformation online.

A Rare Condition

Seven experts in blood disorders interviewed by KHN said there’s not enough information available to blame Michael’s decline on a vaccine and that the demonstrated benefits of covid vaccinations vastly outweigh any potential risk of bleeding. Even if investigators conclude that Michael’s vaccine caused his death, it would still be an incredibly rare event, given that more than 21.8 million doses have been administered.

“It shouldn’t give anyone pause about whether the vaccine is safe or not,” said Dr. James Zehnder, a hematologist and director of clinical pathology at Stanford Medicine.

Michael’s bleeding disorder could have been developing silently for some time, said Dr. Adam Cuker, director of the Penn Blood Disorders Center at the Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania. It could be a coincidence that Michael started showing symptoms shortly after vaccination, he said. About 30 Americans are diagnosed with immune thrombocytopenia every day.

The timing of Michael’s illness suggests it had another cause, doctors said. According to his wife’s Facebook post, his bleeding problems began three days after his first covid shot. It takes the body 10 to 14 days after vaccination to generate antibodies, which would be needed to cause immune thrombocytopenia, said Dr. Cindy Neunert, a pediatric hematologist at the Columbia University Irving Medical Center in New York City.

In most cases, the cause of thrombocytopenia is never known, said Dr. Deepak Bhatt, executive director of interventional cardiovascular programs at Brigham and Women’s Hospital in Boston.

Immune thrombocytopenia is linked, rarely, to certain vaccines, with about 26 cases for every 1 million doses of measles-mumps-rubella vaccine.

But it can also be caused by viruses themselves, including measles and the novel coronavirus, said Dr. Sven Olson, an assistant professor of hematology-medical oncology at Oregon Health & Science University’s school of medicine.

Many patients with immune thrombocytopenia are now wondering if they should be vaccinated against covid, Cuker said. Cuker said he urges nervous patients to be vaccinated, noting that any problems could be managed by closely monitoring their platelet levels and adjusting medication if needed.

Even in patients with underlying bleeding conditions, “it’s still safer to get vaccinated than to get covid,” Zehnder said.

“If you give a vaccine to a large enough number of people, there are going to be rare adverse events but there are also going to be coincidental events unrelated to the vaccine,” Cuker said. “If an anti-vaccine group uses a single case, where no link has been proven, to discourage people from vaccination, that’s terrible.”

Barbara Loe Fisher, president of the National Vaccine Information Center, said her site provides balanced information from reputable news sources, including CNN, CBS and the Miami Herald, as well as Pfizer and the CDC.

In an interview with KHN, Kennedy said he questions why government officials have been so quick to dismiss connections between vaccinations and deaths. “How in the world do they know if it’s a vaccine injury or not?” he asked.

“We don’t discourage anybody from getting vaccinated,” Kennedy said. “All we’re doing is conveying the data, which is what the government should be doing. … We print the truth, which is what the medical agencies ought to do.”

Alternative Facts?

Opponents of vaccination have belittled concerns about the novel coronavirus for months, opposing masks and fighting stay-at-home orders and contact tracing, said Richard Carpiano, a professor of public policy and sociology at the University of California-Riverside.

“They have come out against every public health measure to control the pandemic,” Carpiano said. “They have said public health is public enemy No. 1.”

Recently, anti-vaccine activists have been so eager to discredit immunizations that they have blamed covid for the deaths of people who are very much alive.

Social media users selectively edited a video of a Tennessee nurse, Tiffany Dover to make it appear as if she dropped dead after being vaccinated, when in fact she simply fainted, said Dorit Reiss, a professor at the UC Hastings College of Law in San Francisco. Although Dover quickly recovered, social media users posted a fake death certificate and obituary. Anti-vaccine activists also harassed Dover and her family online, said Reiss, who chronicled Dover’s ordeal in a blog post.

Anti-vaccine activists are adept at manipulating video, Smith said.

“They are notorious for using videos and images purportedly showing the adverse effects of vaccines, such as autism in children and seizures in other vaccine recipients,” Smith said. “The more emotive and graphic the videos and images — irrespective of whether it’s actually linked at all to vaccines or not — the better.”

In December, multiple Facebook posts falsely claimed that an Alabama nurse died after receiving one of the state’s first covid vaccines. One Twitter user went so far as to identify the nurse as Jennifer McClung, who worked at Helen Keller Hospital in Sheffield, Alabama. In fact, McClung died of covid. Social media posts spread so widely that Alabama health department officials contacted every hospital in the state to confirm that no vaccinated staff member had died.

Anti-vaccine groups often build fables around “a tiny, tiny grain of truth,” Smith said. “This is why misinformation, specifically vaccine misinformation, can be so convincing. … But this information is almost always taken completely out of context, creating claims that are either misleading or outright false.”

The Ron Paul Institute for Peace and Prosperity twisted a news story about the deaths of 24 people at an upstate New York nursing home, incorrectly blaming their deaths on covid vaccinations. The original article noted, however, that a covid outbreak at the nursing home began in late December, before residents received any vaccines. Covid vaccines, which require two doses for full protection, did not arrive in time to save the residents’ lives.

Kennedy repeated the misinformation — again incorrectly blaming the residents’ deaths on vaccines — in his blog, although he linked to a local news station that reported the information correctly.

Distorting facts to discourage vaccination, Cuker said, is “very irresponsible and damaging to public health.”

An 18-year-old Clark County woman who became critically ill after receiving the Johnson & Johnson COVID-19 vaccine has undergone three brain surgeries related to dangerous blood clots, a spokesman for the patient’s family said on Monday.

The young woman, Emma Burkey, began to feel ill about a week after being vaccinated on or about April 1, eventually experiencing seizures that sent her to the hospital, spokesman Bret Johnson said.


Burkey was first treated at St. Rose Dominican Hospital, Siena campus, in Henderson before being airlifted to Loma Linda University Medical Center in Southern California for specialized care. Her parents, Russ and Kathy, are at her bedside, but only for a brief period each day due to COVID-19 restrictions.

“She is improving slowly,” Johnson said in an interview. “The word we got from her parents last night was ‘slowly, slowly slowly.’”

Burkey has been taken out of an induced coma and off a respirator. She has a tracheostomy tube that impedes speech, but she is mouthing some words and blinking her eyes to communicate, her parents told Johnson.


“She can 3/4 smile at will, and she likes to tease me about how bad I read lips,” Russ Burkey said in an online update from Sunday night.

Although Burkey has experienced a “massive brain injury,” her parents are “cautiously optimistic,” Johnson said.


“They’re cautiously optimistic because she is improving, but very, very slowly,” said Johnson, president and founder of The Hastening, a local ministry where Russ Burkey serves as a volunteer.

To assist with Burkey’s medical expenses, which already have amounted to hundreds of thousands of dollars, Johnson has organized a GoFundMe fundraiser that had raised more than $10,000 as of Monday afternoon.


Federal regulators have suspended the use of the J&J vaccine, also known as the Janssen vaccine, pending an investigation of six reported cases, including the one in Clark County, that involve rare blood clots in the brain.

The six women, between the ages of 18 and 48, experienced cerebral venous sinus thrombosis, where clots occur in veins that drain blood from the brain. The blood clots occurred six to 13 days after vaccination. About 7 million doses of the single-dose vaccine have been administered in the U.S.

On Monday, the director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said that health officials are investigating “a handful” of new but unconfirmed reports of blood clots. Nor is it clear whether the vaccine was responsible for the original half dozen cases.


As soon as Friday, a committee advising the CDC could recommend whether to lift suspension of the vaccine’s use.

“If you follow the national news, the J & J vaccine has been put on hold because of these rare cases,” states a post on Burkey’s GoFundMe page. “Unfortunately, Emma is the ‘one in a million’ here.”

A woman in Texas who was administered the Johnson & Johnson Covid-19 shot is receiving medical treatment after exhibiting signs of potential blood clots, mirroring cases that prompted authorities to halt the vaccine’s use.
A spokesperson for the Texas Department of State Health Services said on Thursday that the agency had been notified about the case by the US Centers for Disease Control (CDC) and Prevention, but was not provided with further details in order to protect the patient’s privacy.
The rollout of the J&J vaccine was paused earlier this month after six women between the ages of 18 and 48 developed blood clots after receiving the shot. However, hundreds of doses had already been administered in Texas before the authorities halted its use.

Despite all the high-pressure sales tactics and tyrannical lock down policies, only one in five Americans have lined up for the covid-19 jabs, on average. In Mississippi, approximately 21 percent of the population is fully inoculated, even though the vaccines have been available to everyone for over a month. In Alabama that number is 19 percent and in Georgia, only 20 percent of people have been coerced to comply.

As the coercive sales tactics and medical tyranny come up short of achieving mass vaccine compliance, the federal government is preparing to use more forceful and invasive policies to get the shots in arms. The Biden regime recently endorsed Vaccine Passports, which would threaten human rights by violating medical privacy laws and civil rights laws, permanently discriminating and segregating the unvaccinated.

“If you think of this as a war,” said Michael Carney, the senior vice president for emerging issues at the U.S. Chamber of Commerce Foundation, “we’re about to enter the hand-to-hand combat phase of the war.” The Biden regime is preparing to deploy pop-up clinics in hard-to-reach areas and will send vaccinators into neighborhoods with low vaccination rates.

Federal government uses medical tyranny and coercion to mass vaccinate
The federal government did not study the safety of covid-19 vaccines in 2020. Instead, the government conducted clinical studies on how to effectively manipulate people to take the covid-19 vaccines. These clinical studies tested out different messages and psychological ploys to find the most effective methods to compel compliance. These studies of vaccine coercion were conducted for covid-19 vaccines that only proved to be effective for two to three months and even caused symptoms of illness in roughly 8o percent of vaccine recipients. These studies of vaccine coercion were conducted long before the experimental covid-19 vaccines were ever granted emergency authorization by the FDA, because the vaccines were going to be approved no matter what!

Many of these high-pressure sales tactics have already been used on the population. People have been so restricted and abused by medical edicts; they are desperate to get their lives back. By tying vaccination to reopening policy, governments are able to coerce more people to comply. Even though the vaccines could have been made readily available to everyone many months ago, the government has used the scarcity tactic to get more people to sign up, one group at a time. The government has used rollout strategies that feign compassion to convince certain groups of people that they are high risk and are being cared for. The government has also used the guilt, belonging, community interest and peer pressure tactics to motivate people to vaccinate as part of a select group, for the betterment of all. The Biden regime has also appealed to moral duty and even used patriotism to make people believe they are doing a good thing for their country when they vaccinate.

The unvaccinated will be blamed for the failure of the covid-19 vaccines
Anyone who chooses not to vaccinate will ultimately be blamed for the inevitable and continual failure of the covid-19 vaccines. This shaming tactic has already been identified in the mainstream media. According to MSN, the nation will “not be able to reach herd immunity…in time to stop worrisome new variants from evading the vaccine.” The unvaccinated are already being blamed for “worrisome new variants” that will infect the vaccinated, no matter how many times the vaccinated roll up their sleeve. This is the “anger message” that the federal government has already studied. This coercion tactic compels the vaccinated to be angry at those who do not vaccinate. The unvaccinated, healthy and gaining immunity to coronaviruses, will be blamed for “putting the health of the community at risk,” even though the unvaccinated are the ones gaining lifelong immunity and improving herd immunity for the long haul.

The failure of the vaccine is already apparent in the first four months, with the CDC already reporting 5,800 cases of covid-19 post vaccination. Of these cases, 396 suffered from severe illness and 74 patients died. If these post vaccination infection trends continue, the vaccine should not be considered effective at all, and the mortality RATE for people who are infected post vaccination would be greater than the mortality rate for wild infection. Moreover, the issue of antibody dependent enhancement could make the mortality rate for covid-19 post vaccination skyrocket even more over the next couple years.

Rachel McKinney: 35-year-old British healthcare worker develops multiple sclerosis, dead three months after experimental Pfizer mRNA shots


STOCKPORT, GREATER MANCHESTER –A 35-year-old wife, mother and nurse is dead after suffering through two months of severe adverse effects.

Mrs. Rachel McKinney was one among the first recipients of experimental Pfizer mRNA shots in England. She received her first dose in late December, followed by the second in January, according to her sister, Gemma Louise Walls. Everything was fine through January. But Mrs. McKinney started having slurred speech and feeling confused in February. The family believed she had a stroke.

A 111 operator advised the family to take Rachel to Stepping Hill Hospital, according to the Manchester Evening News. Doctors diagnosed her with brain inflammation. Mrs. McKinney’s condition quickly deteriorated. She became paralyzed and lost her ability to speak. Due to COVID-19 restrictions, the family was unable to see her. All they could do is watch her cry on FaceTime.

Mrs. McKinney was transferred to Salford Royal Hospital a week later. But her condition continued to worsen. Doctors said she developed acute disseminated encephalomyelitis (ADEM). She had multiple seizures, forcing the doctors to place her in a medically-induced coma. The family saw the writing the wall in March.



Another “long-term” death
Mrs. McKinney died about three months after the experimental Pfizer mRNA shot. Her story is similar to Joshimar Henry. He was the 27-year-old Chicago doctor who died three months after the Pfizer mRNA shot. But from all accounts, it appears Dr. Henry did not suffer any adverse effects before his sudden passing. It took about a month for Mrs. McKinney to suffer adverse effects. She fought for almost two months. But experimental gene therapy is no joke.

The good news is that Mrs. McKinney’s family are true soldiers. They are not telling people to get these experimental shots despite their loved one’s death. The family is warning people about the real dangers of these experimental shots.
