1~ A SYSTEMATIC REVIEW OF AUTOPSY FINDINGS IN DEATHS AFTER COVID-19 VACCINATION ~
โ€ข (@NicHulscher) et al. ~ Published 07.06.23

~ ABSTRACT ~

Background:
โ€ข The rapid development & widespread deployment of COVID-19 vaccines, combined with a high number of adverse event reports, have led to concerns over possible mechanisms of injury including systemic lipid nanoparticle (LNP) & mRNA distribution, spike protein-associated tissue damage, thrombogenicity, immune system dysfunction, & carcinogenicity
โ€ข The aim of this systematic review is to investigate possible causal links between COVID-19 vaccine administration & death using autopsies & post-mortem analysis

Methods
โ€ข We searched for all published autopsy & necropsy reports relating to COVID-19 vaccination up until May 18th, 2023
โ€ข We initially identified 678 studies &, after screening for our inclusion criteria, included 44 papers that contained 325 autopsy cases & one necropsy case
โ€ข Three physicians independently reviewed all deaths & determined whether COVID-19 vaccination was the direct cause or contributed significantly to death

Findings
โ€ข The most implicated organ system in COVID-19 vaccine-associated death was the cardiovascular system (53%), followed by the hematological system (17%), the respiratory system (8%), & multiple organ systems (7%)
โ€ข Three or more organ systems were affected in 21 cases
โ€ข The mean time from vaccination to death was 14.3 days
โ€ข Most deaths occurred within a week from last vaccine administration
โ€ข A total of 240 deaths (73.9%) were independently adjudicated as directly due to or significantly contributed to by COVID-19 vaccination

Interpretation
โ€ข The consistency seen among cases in this review with known COVID-19 vaccine adverse events, their mechanisms, & related excess death, coupled with autopsy confirmation & physician-led death adjudication, suggests there is a high likelihood of a causal link between COVID-19 vaccines & death in most cases
โ€ข Further urgent investigation is required for the purpose of clarifying our findings

๐Ÿงต Fever of Unknown Origin (FUO) โ€“ A Clinical Approach

Every doctor faces this: a patient with fever that just wonโ€™t go away.
Hereโ€™s how to tackle FUO in a systematic, bedside-friendly way ๐Ÿ‘‡

1. Definition ๐Ÿ”‘
FUO = Fever >38.3ยฐC (101ยฐF) on multiple occasions, lasting >3 weeks, with no diagnosis despite 1 week of inpatient evaluation.

๐Ÿ‘‰ Not just โ€œfever for long timeโ€ โ€” itโ€™s a diagnosis of exclusion.
@IhabFathiSulima @DrAkhilX #MedTwitter #RheumTwitterImage
2. Categories of FUO ๐Ÿ“‚
Classically 4 buckets:
โ€ขInfectious
โ€ขMalignancy
โ€ขAutoimmune / Rheumatologic
โ€ขMiscellaneous / Undiagnosed Image
3. Start with the basics ๐Ÿฉบ
โ€ขRe-take history: travel, exposures, drugs, family hx.
โ€ขDo a head-to-toe exam: lymph nodes, rash, murmurs, organomegaly, joint swelling.
๐Ÿ‘‰ Many diagnoses are hidden in plain sight.

How was Anatolia Turkified? One demographic instrument was Seljuk men often taking Christian wives and concubines from the Roman population in Anatolia.

The children would be raised Muslim, even with Christian mothers, and over time this contribute to a one way ethnic shift ๐Ÿงต Image
One must keep in mind for context:

Muslim men could take Christian wives, but Muslim women couldnโ€™t marry Christians. So this form of demographic pressure was purely one way. This is in addition to the opportunity and incentive to convert to Islam, as opposed to being a dhimmi. Image
The Seljuk royal family had a harem, much like the far more famous Ottoman harem. This was a polygamous institution, whereby the Sultan could have 4 wives and as many enslaved concubines as he desired. In Seljuk Anatolia, these were quite often Rum women, Romans. Image

The FUNNEL of ESCAPE : Unlocking the Secrets of SARS-CoV-2 Survival !

An explanation for Kids ๐Ÿ‘ฉโ€โค๏ธโ€๐Ÿ‘จbased on this recent study :
"Constrained Evolutionary Funnels Shape Viral Immune Escape"

2) In this study, scientists are trying to understand how tricky viruses, like the one that causes COVID-19, try to escape from our body's defenses.

**The Virus and Our Immune System:**
- Viruses are sneaky and always want to find new ways to avoid being caught ... Image
3) ... by our immune system (the body's defense system). Think of it like a character in a game that needs to avoid traps and heroes trying to catch them. Image

1/ Eleven Dutch parties across the political spectrum from socialist to conservative have issued a joint appeal to a provincial government to build a memorial to Black American soldiers who died in World War II, to replace one removed from the Netherlands American Cemetery. โฌ‡๏ธ Image
2/ The Dutch newspaper NRC reported earlier that a memorial to African-American soldiers who had fought to liberate the Netherlands and built the cemetery in Margraten, South Limburg, had been removed following a complaint by the Heritage Foundation.
3/ The removal was strongly criticised by local historians, researchers and politicians, who had campaigned for years for the US government to publicly recognise the contribution of black Americans to the liberation of the Netherlands in 1944-45.

๐Ÿšจ Long Covid and ME voices are being quietly hidden on X.
Letโ€™s talk about whatโ€™s happening - and what we can do together to push back. ๐Ÿงต
1๏ธโƒฃ Over the past months, many advocacy accounts have seen posts vanish from feeds, searches, or hashtags. Follows have dived.
This isnโ€™t a glitch - the algorithm de-prioritises health and advocacy content, especially when it includes links or repeated hashtags.
2๏ธโƒฃ For a small non-profit or disabled advocate, that means hours of work can reach only a handful of people.
While misinformation spreads easily, lived experience and evidence-based advocacy are quietly filtered out.

Four years on, weโ€™re still being told โ€œthe virus was riskier than the vaccine.โ€

This is ALL WRONG.

The vaccine did not stop infections.

Vaccinated children were exposed to both risks - sometimes multiplied by several doses.

Breakdown of that paper:

It is wrong to focus on only one adverse event to the exclusion of others.

Mild or asymptomatic myocarditis has been demonstrated post vaccine.

3% of teenage boys had evidence of dead heart cells (raised troponin) a third had symptoms after booster.

Those are all massive caveats to looking at this data at all but when we do we see a whole heap of problems...

I grew up in a small rural community, and I distinctly remember back in '73 how shocked all the grownups were to turn on PBS and learn about World War II for the first time
If you actually believe there is some vast Amazon lost tribe of Hick People out there in Flyover Country whose only connection to civilization is PBS and NPR, then I'm afraid you're the one living in an information desert
Please remember that (A) NPR and PBS only get 0.0001% of their funding from goverment, but (B) it's the 0.0001% that will completely destroy them if you dare cut it

For those following @ianshapira 's coverage in
@washingtonpost of @The_ACNA 's patterns of covering up abuse, note that in addition to the four articles published in this month & last, there was this major article in Jan. featuring @TheFallsChurch
wapo.st/47ONJpU x.com/jeffreyhwaltonโ€ฆ
The reason that the @washingtonpost is covering @The_ACNA at all is because survivors of Jeff Taylor & their advocates approached Mr. Shapira about the egregious mishandling of a child sexual predator case at that @TheFallsChurch.

Nattokinase shrinks arterial plaques in nearly 80% of people, a landmark recent study has shown.

(๐Ÿงต1/7) Image
Natto is a food commonly consumed in Japan made from fermented soybeans.

The soybeans have the bacteria Bacillus subtilis var natto added,

The bacteria eats the soybeans and it produces the enzyme nattokinase.

What nattokinase does is it breaks down fibrin - the primary protein that holds together blood clots.

These blood clots are what result from plaques in the arteries, leading to the blockage of blood flow and eventually heart attack.

(2/7)Image
This study took over 1,000 people with evidence of mild heart disease or who were at risk.

People were given 10,800 FU of nattokinase per day.

This is equivalent to roughly 100-200 mg of nattokinase per day.
