Let’s discuss #LymeDisease #vaccines.

The topic is getting a lot of play lately, and I’m seeing people who have been socially programmed to hate “antivaxxers” jumping on the “antivaxxers killed the Lyme vaccines” propaganda short bus.

🧵

First of all, the #Lyme vaccines killed themselves. Let’s just be clear on that, once and for all. OspA in any form is not a vaccine. It is one of many lipoproteins expressed on the surface of Borrelia, the organisms that cause #LymeDisease. #LYMErix was recombinant OspA.

You can’t inject these lipoproteins… because…why would you do that when the ticks are perfectly capable??? 🤦‍♀️

Any idiot can go to PubMed and look up what OspA does. Better yet, look up what the “lipo” end (Pam3cys) of the lipoprotein does. Basic organic chemistry “structure/function” stuff. I’ll start with a few examples.

“...OspA interferes with the response of lymphocytes to proliferative stimuli including a blocking of cell cycle phase progression…The magnitude of modulation (immunosuppression) was directly dependent on the quantity of OspA.” ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/10865170

“These results demonstrate that B. burgdorferi can stimulate the production of an antiinflammatory, immunosuppressive cytokine in naive cells…” Note that purified, lipidated OspA was used.

pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/9596735/

This one is too long to quote. OspA is managed by the immune receptor TLR2 (along with TLR1). They showed that the TLR stimulation caused the TLR5 receptor for flagellin to be less responsive. TLR5 is crucial for both immune homeostasis and protection against bacterial infection.

This TLR5 down-regulation is probably one reason #LymeDisease diagnostics are known to be trash in the first few weeks of infection. The first and most commonly expressed antibodies are to the bacterial flagellin—Western blot band 41.

Another long one requiring a screenshot:
Dattwyler, 1988 (!!!) 1988! The *supernatants* (the fats, or lipids, like the gunk you skim off the gravy) caused inhibition of natural killer cells.

So, you can see that it’s not a good idea to say, “hey, let’s find a way to manufacture the outer surface proteins of #LymeDisease borrelia and call them a vaccine!” They are not a vaccine. They are the cause of this horrific immune deficiency disease. #LYMErix was a sham.

I have complained to OHRP and CBER about the new Valneva/Pfizer scam which is an almost exact do-over of #LYMErix. Here’s an image from their report showing the Pam3Cys hanging off the molecule. If it’s exposed as appears, it is likely to do massive harm.

Now, some history for the short-bus folks who whine about the demise of #LYMErix.

And really, this is the whole proverbial ball of wax, right here. How did #LYMErix even get approved if it was capable of causing the exact same illness as #LymeDisease?

Here’s a handy fact sheet on how the #LymeDisease case definition was rigged to exclude the sick people and include only the people likely to develop #LymeArthritis.

It’s appalling to think the #LymeDisease vaccine developers knew their products could cause the same illness as #Lyme itself and decided to market it anyway. But it’s downright sickening to know they committed this fraud with such little regard for human suffering.

The #LymeDisease vaccine developers went to the FDA in 1994 and said, “yeah, this case definition that includes everyone from the profoundly immune suppressed to the autoimmune arthritis cases, even tho they’re all valid, isn’t gonna work for phase III efficacy trials.”
#LYMErix

Despite some researchers saying “sicker patients don’t produce antibodies,” the FDA said, “yeah, cool, you guys go ahead and change the case definition so it works for your trials.” Which meant excluding known low-antibody responders/ including only high Ab arthritis cases.

A few months later they had a conference in Dearborn, Michigan which will forever live in infamy. That was where the CDC rubber-stamped a new diagnostic scheme for #LymeDisease that would with near 100% specificity diagnose late #Lyme arthritis.

When the #LYMErix and #ImuLyme trials proceeded, there was then no basis for reporting symptoms of #LymeDisease that would indicate breakthrough infection. Likewise, the case definition excluded OspA-reaction adverse events that normally would signal #LymeDisease infection.

With the #LymeDisease case definition and diagnostics ONLY allowing arthritic complaints, EVERYONE focused solely on whether #LYMErix was responsible for adverse events that featured autoimmune-mediated arthralgias.

Allen Steere had laid the groundwork for this bullshit in the early 1990s. He discovered a genetic association between the high-antibody kind of #LymeDisease and arthritis.

nejm.org/doi/full/10.10…

So Steere knew going into the Dearborn conference, and into his role as #LYMErix trial administrator, that OspA causes two different diseases depending on genetic factors, and that the case definition revised specifically for vax trials excluded the majority & the sickest cases.

When the #LYMErix complaints started rolling in, my friend Kathleen, a former Pfizer scientist disabled by #LymeDisease was leading a #Lyme support group in Connecticut. She heard over and over: “I got the Lyme vaccine and now I have Lyme again”

She is the one who elucidated the mechanism of OspA immunosuppression. She has paid dearly for speaking out against the crooks who perpetrated this heinous crime. But again, systemic adverse events were thrown out & only arthritis addressed. #LYMErix

Because, remember, #LymeDisease, since 1994, = ONLY lots-of-antibodies linked to certain genetic profiles that tend to get arthritis from OspA injection, whether by tick or syringe. (These cases constitute around 15% of actual cases.)

When the #LYMErix lawsuits started, the obvious legal theory was to connect adverse events with Steere’s HLAs known to be possible arthritis triggers. #LymeDisease = arthritis, OspA known to produce arthritis, therefore LYMErix victims with arthritis HLAs = slam dunk.

Here is one victim’s story:

“I called the nurse back, agitated about the conflicting stories and so she gave me an appointment with the doctor in charge of the study, Gary Wormser. He said he didn't want to be my doctor, he wanted to be my ‘friend.’”
😱

whale.to/vaccine/alliso…

Remember, Wormser was one of my references on #OspA immunosuppression. He has published about this multiple times and spent his pre-#LymeDisease career as an #HIV #AIDS scientist. He was a trial administrator for the Connaught #ImuLyme vaccine.

Gary Wormser still runs the Westchester Medical Center #LymeDisease clinic and I could write a book about all his dirty deeds, but for the purposes of a tweet thread, I’ll just say he’s probably the worst of all the #Lyme crooks.

Anyway…we were discussing how only HLA-linked, primarily arthritic, adverse events were ever addressed in connection with #LYMErix. Sadly, even the activists seized on the easy narrative. Lyme Disease Foundation FDA testimony: badlymeattitude.files.wordpress.com/2021/08/karenn…

And here, the Lyme Disease Association recounts their FDA #LYMErix meeting where again, the focus is on the victims with Steere’s arthritis HLAs.

lymediseaseassociation.org/about-lyme/med…

Consequently, it should come as no surprise that when the FDA decided to review #LYMErix adverse events, the only ones that were even considered were the ones that involved arthritis.

That’s why the media to this day regurgitate the assertion that the risk of arthritis from #LYMErix #OspA was no greater than the risk of arthritis among the general population. We’ll, duh. If you’re looking at risk for certain HLAs, their risk is the same in a trial or not. 🙄

I hope that helps explain the recent media blitz on #LymeDisease vaccines. They’re exploiting the current hate spree against “antivaxxers” when this was never an issue of being for or against vaccines in general. It’s an issue of scientific fraud & a crime against humanity.
