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
Dr Richard Davis, former member of the SA Red Cross blood transfusion committee, has questioned the robustness of these assurances.

“If the Red Cross is not documenting the vaccination status of donors, how can it possibly track any harm?”

“Further, the Red Cross should not claim there is no evidence of risk to recipients when such effects may take years to manifest,” he added.Image
As late as September 2022, American @RedCross stated on X, “the COVID-19 vaccine does not enter the bloodstream.”

But findings by Chakraborty, data from biodistribution studies in Japanese regulatory documents, and a study published this month in Nature, all clearly show that the vaccine leaves the injection site and circulates widely throughout the body.Image
“Without data, we are left in a dangerous state of speculation,” Dr Davis said.

🚨Merck rigged Gardasil trials to conceal harms, court documents reveal
A forensic analysis by @PGtzsche1 - now part of the official court record—lays bare a chilling narrative of clinical trial rigging, regulatory failure, and global deception.



@DrPatSoonShiong @TheChiefNerd @Jikkyleaks @MdBreathe @Liz_Wheelerblog.maryannedemasi.com/p/merck-rigged…Image
Trials were designed to mislead

From the outset, @PGtzsche1 argues that Merck engineered its clinical trials not to detect harms, but to mask them.

Rather than using an inert placebo—such as saline solution, the gold standard in clinical research—Merck used an aluminium-based adjuvant as the control in all but two small trials.

And those two trials—marked with a red box below—showed a significantly greater incidence of harm compared to trials that used an aluminium adjuvant or a comparator vaccine as the "placebo."Image
Concealing harms by slicing the data

Beyond trial design, @PGtzsche1 details how Merck systematically manipulated the recording and reporting of adverse events.

Participants were monitored for harms for just 14 days following each vaccine dose—a relatively short window.

Autoimmune reactions and other vaccine-related harms can take weeks or months to emerge, and sometimes years to diagnose e.g. POTS

If an adverse event occurred outside this 14-day window, it was not counted as a vaccine-related effect, but reclassified as a “new medical history” and obscuring any connection to the vaccine.

“By calling adverse events ‘new medical history’, Merck not only concealed important adverse events but also their severity,” Gøtzsche explains.Image

💥Slovakia launches Covid-19 vaccine probe after DNA contamination findings

A scientific analysis has sparked calls for transparency, independent testing, and a freeze on future vaccine deliveries to Slovakia.


@Jikkyleaks @Kevin_McKernan @MdBreatheblog.maryannedemasi.com/p/slovakia-lau…Image
The move, announced by Slovakia’s Prime Minister @RobertFicoSVK, follows an independent scientific analysis commissioned abroad by Czech researcher Dr Soňa Peková,

The report found that vaccine samples used in Slovakia, contained "extremely high levels of DNA" that the “manufacturer did not disclose” in the relevant regulatory documents. blog.maryannedemasi.com/p/new-evidence…Image
PM @RobertFicoSVK stated that he would task the Slovak Academy of Sciences—the country’s leading scientific institution—with repeating the analysis as soon as possible.

“In addition to the expert opinion,” he said, “only the Slovak Academy of Sciences and its expert departments can carry out another quantitative analysis of the presence of DNA and other substances in selected samples of vaccines used by the Slovak population.”Image

📢The silencing of scientific curiosity
Medical journals have became enforcers of orthodoxy—retracting genuine hypotheses while protecting proven fraud.

Why is a 'hypothesis' a threat to science?


@SabinehazanMD @Jikkyleaks @Kevin_McKernan @MdBreathe @newstart_2024blog.maryannedemasi.com/p/the-silencin…Image
As a scientific writer and researcher, I’ve witnessed the decline of medical journals firsthand. I interviews Rita Redberg, ex-EIC of @JAMAInternalMed, Richard Smith ex EIC of @bmj_latest and John Ioannidis, the most cited scientist in the world blog.maryannedemasi.com/p/are-medical-…Image
Never have I seen a more absurd example of this decay than the retraction of a hypothesis paper—yes, a hypothesis—authored by @SabinehazanMD in Frontiers in Microbiology.
In May 2023—more than a year after the article was peer-reviewed and published—the journal retracted the paper following a series of complaints on PubPeer, offering only a vague explanation about “scientific soundness.”Image

💉Should you take a flu shot?
Despite evidence of poor efficacy, advocates say "it's better than nothing".
Read why that's a bad argument? 👇👇


@Jikkyleaks @MdBreathe @Liz_Wheeler @RobertKennedyJr @CartlandDavidblog.maryannedemasi.com/p/should-you-t…Image
In 2013, Dr Peter Doshi wrote an editorial in @JAMAInternalMed, titled "Influenza Vaccines
Time for a Rethink." He argued that flu vaccines do not reliably reduce outcomes that matter to patients—such as hospitalisation or death.

This is supported by Cochrane reviews.
jamanetwork.com/journals/jamai…Image
Victoria & New South Wales mandates the flu jab for healthcare workers to protect vulnerable patients. But a Cochrane review found vaccinating healthcare workers made “little or no difference to the number of residents who get flu or go to hospital with a chest infection.”cochrane.org/CD005187/CENTR…

🚨Surge in brain tumours among nurses at Boston hospital triggers urgent inquiry

*More cases are coming forward*

Renowned cancer researcher @weldeiry calls for a full-scale inquiry—including potential Covid-19 vaccine-related risks @TheChiefNerd @btysonmd @Jikkyleaksblog.maryannedemasi.com/p/surge-in-bra…Image
.@CBSNews first reported at least 10 nurses had been diagnosed with brain tumours—some malignant, others benign—with three requiring surgery.

But the hospital disputed these figures, stating there are only 5 confirmed cases.

I contacted a nurse who worked at Newton-Wellesley for nearly a decade and was recently diagnosed with a brain tumour revealed that at least 17 individuals had come forward and were undergoing assessment.

Nurse's union @MassNurses said, “We are speaking with many, many more nurses and gathering their medical records."
The @newtonwellesley in Boston stated:
“The investigation found no environmental risks linked to the development of brain tumours...We can confidently reassure our dedicated team members and all our patients that there is no environmental risk at our facility.”

But the union said the investigation as “completely inadequate,” launching its own inquiry.

“We’re seeing reports of different types of brain tumours,” said the @MassNurses representative. “There may be environmental hazards, past or present, such as asbestos exposure or radiation… It’s too early to rule anything out.”

💥FDA’s top vaccine chief Peter Marks is out the door amid vaccine safety disputes and looming legal challenges💥

Read about his troubled legacy at the FDA 👇


@Jikkyleaks @MdBreathe @nicksortor @RobSchneider @MikeBenzCyber blog.maryannedemasi.com/p/fdas-top-vac…Image
Peter Marks blamed the newly minted Health Secretary @RobertKennedyJr for his exit.

“It has become clear that truth and transparency are not desired by the Secretary, but rather he wishes subservient confirmation of his misinformation and lies,” Marks wrote. Image
Image
Throughout the pandemic, Marks proved himself to be an unwavering champion of Operation Warp Speed—a project that fast-tracked vaccine trials, cut corners on safety testing, and bypassed essential trial site and manufacturing inspections.

He repeatedly pointed to the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS) as proof of rigorous safety monitoring, yet failed to improve its efficiency.

He authorised Covid-19 mRNA vaccines for young people without testing for meaningful clinical outcomes—basing the decision on immunobridging data of antibody titres, which even he admitted was a poor correlate of protection against Covid. bmj.com/content/379/bm…
