🧵 Thread on my statin research 👇🏼

Our analysis in @JAMAInternalMed
21 statin trials, 143,532 participants

The benefits of #statins were minimal & most trial participants who took statins, derived no clinical benefit.

We respond to a critique by @PeterAttiaMD of our systematic review and meta analysis of #statin trials

Proposed guidelines in the UK recommend #statins to all adults if “the person is happy to take a statin”.

Here’s why it’s a bad idea 👇🏼

Do statins cause muscle aches?
~ 50% of patients stop their statins within 1yr of commencing therapy, mostly because of muscle problems.

But a major study published in @TheLancet concluded that statins are rarely to blame.

See why I disagree tinyurl.com/2n69678u Image
Experts proposed that #statins should be available over the counter.

Cardiologist Robert DuBroff and I disagree. 👇🏼

Here is a documentary I produced about cholesterol, statins and heart disease, which led to powerful vested interests calling for its censorship. Featuring @RFRedberg @DrJohnAbramson & more

🔥Gardasil on Trial:
Did Merck Mislead the Public on Cervical Cancer Prevention?

Top expert delivers a damning report accusing Merck of misleading the public about Gardasil’s ability to prevent cervical cancer.


@eileeniorio @ChildrensHD @MdBreathe
@Jikkyleaksblog.maryannedemasi.com/p/gardasil-on-…Image
Dr Sin Hang Lee states: There is no conclusive evidence [no RCTs] that Gardasil has prevented a single case of cervical cancer in the past 18yrs.
@Merck relied on surrogate markers of pre-cancers, such as cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN2/3).
But most CIN2/3 lesions resolve naturally.Image
Two studies - from Sweden and Scotland - are cited as proof that Gardasil reduces cervical cancer.

Sensationalist media headlines claim “No cervical cancer cases in HPV-vaccinated women.”

But Dr Lee cites numerous methodological flaws that undermine these conclusions - see full article blog.maryannedemasi.com/p/gardasil-on-…Image

💥Court Documents Reveal “Undisclosed” Adjuvant in Gardasil vaccine
@Merck's Gardasil vaccine contains an unapproved immune booster—kept secret from the public. A lawsuit is exposing the cover-up.

@Jikkyleaks @Kevin_McKernan @MdBreathe @RealCandaceO @elonmusk @TheChiefNerdblog.maryannedemasi.com/p/court-docume…Image
Dr Sin Hang Lee notes the presence of HPV DNA in Gardasil makes the vaccine far more immunogenic. @Merck was aware of this, and failed to publicly disclose it.

High levels of HPV DNA fragments left over from the manufacturing process act as a second adjuvant—which has not been approved by any regulator worldwide.Image
.@Merck took deliberate steps during the manufacturing process to preserve and protect HPV DNA, ensuring it would end up in the final product.

VLPs with HPV 18 DNA were omitted from the "disassembly/reassembly" stage - a purification step.

📢Australian government branded a "national embarrassment" over Covid-19 vaccines

Federal MP @BroadbentMP slams the government’s repeated failure to engage with compelling scientific findings, instead offloading responsibility to officials lacking the necessary expertise.


@Kevin_McKernan @Jikkyleaks @P_McCulloughMDblog.maryannedemasi.com/p/australian-g…Image
The government defers its responses to the @TGAgovau's Dr Lisa Kerr, who has consistently misrepresented safety thresholds, falsely claimed the contamination would degrade rapidly, and dismissed peer-reviewed studies without substantive critique. Image
Genomics expert @Kevin_McKernan publicly dismantled Kerr’s response in an open letter, exposing what he described as fundamental misunderstandings, inaccuracies, and outright falsehoods. anandamide.substack.com/p/open-letter-…

💥EXCLUSIVE: Internal emails reveal Merck's negligence in Gardasil safety testing

@Merck knew its Gardasil vaccine was contaminated with HPV DNA fragments but failed to conduct proper tests and the regulators helped cover it up.

@Jikkyleaks @Kevin_McKernan @TheChiefNerd @RealCandaceO @tracybeanzblog.maryannedemasi.com/p/exclusive-in…Image
In 2011, Dr Sin Hang Lee discovered high levels of HPV DNA fragments in Gardasil that were tightly bound to the aluminium adjuvant (AAHS) - these aggregates are resistant to breakdown by enzymes blog.maryannedemasi.com/p/fda-ignored-…Image
Once injected, these aggregates are absorbed by immune cells and activate Toll-like receptor 9 (TLR9), triggering pro-inflammatory responses.

According to Dr Lee, for some individuals, particularly those with genetic predispositions, this can lead to autoimmune conditions POTS or, in rare cases, sudden death.ijvtpr.com/index.php/IJVT…Image

📢CALL FOR ACTION: Citizen petition demands FDA revoke approval of Covid-19 mRNA vaccines
blog.maryannedemasi.com/p/citizen-peti…
New legal challenge - the petition alleges violations of regulatory processes, raises serious safety concerns & concludes the vaccines were “unlawfully approved.”
@Double_Christ @Kevin_McKernan @JesslovesMJK @CanningPharm @Jikkyleaks @MdBreathe @DowdEdward @TheChiefNerdImage
At the heart of the petition is the claim that the FDA “wrongfully and illegally” permitted @pfizer & @moderna_tx to bypass legally required Environmental Assessments (EAs) under 21 CFR Part 25—a crucial regulatory step for biologics.
Under Section 25.15(a), the absence of a proper EA alone is grounds to reject an application.
accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/cdrh/c…
Moderna itself acknowledged that its mRNA technology falls within the scope of gene therapy regulation. In a 2020 Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) filing, the company stated, “Currently, mRNA is considered a gene therapy product by the FDA.”

PART II: Implications of plasmid DNA fragments in blood products
Blind spots in the oversight of blood products, leaves the public in a dangerous state of speculation.
@Kevin_McKernan @Jikkyleaksblog.maryannedemasi.com/p/part-ii-impl…Image
Gene fragments encoding 'SV40' and 'Kanamycin,' which are specific to the plasmid DNA used in vaccine manufacturing of mRNA vaccines, have been identified in blood samples.

If these genetic sequences can persist in the bloodstream after vaccination, and potentially end up in blood products such as fresh frozen plasma, whole blood, or cryoprecipitate, what risks might they pose to recipients?"
Australian Red Cross says there is no evidence risk to a recipient. But it does not track the COVID-19 vaccination status of donors, nor has it tested for these genetic components of mRNA vaccines in donated blood. @RedCrossAU Image
