Coronavirus diary – Part 43

The vaccine question is a life and death matter. For the sake of humanity, caution is to be proffered to a leap in the dark—Akhaine.

Without a doubt, there is desperation on the part of the vaccine merchants and their partisans to mainstream the usefulness of the vaccines. Emphasis has been on the DNA editing trope. On Daily Blast Live, Dr. Payal Kohli, a cardiologist, responded to the question on whether “the leading COVID-19 vaccine uses a new technology that will permanently change your DNA?” She described the claim as “fiction” and that it would not lead to genetic mutation despite the double-edged nature of mRNA technology which some notable scientists have pointed out could alter the genome.

However, Antivax crusaders are not relenting. Sara Cunial, an Italian parliamentarian assailed her own government’s careless and unhelpful response to the Wuhan crisis and accused it of being influenced by Bill Gates whom she branded as a “vaccine criminal”. She further alleged a link between the World Health Organisation and Gate’s funding of it whose vaccine would engender “free genocide”, especially in poor countries.

Other Antivax voices include Zack Cox, Dr. Anna Forbes, Ralph Sundberg, Dr Johan Dennis, Dr Daniel Cullum, Moritz von der Borch, and Anne Fierlafijn. Cox, a dentist, and homeopath, a founding member of the World Doctors Alliance believes that “the pandemic is fundamentally over and was so in the summer. I also firmly believe that there is no long-term safety data on any of the COVID vaccines. This means that they are essentially experimenting on us, which is against the Nuremberg Code. I will not be taking the vaccine.” Dr Forbes of the UK Medical Freedom Alliance, “believe that there has been an overestimation of the public health risk from SARS-COV-2 due to misrepresentation of data and inappropriate use of the PCR test.

We call for the preservation of informed consent, medical choice, and bodily autonomy.” Sundberg, a former Associate Professor at Karolinska Institute, opines that “that the PCR test is inaccurate, it actually causes so mainly false positives so we are scared to vaccination and I don’t trust this vaccine.” Dennis from Belgium, remarks that “the Corona vaccine is not proven safe or effective. There is no medical emergency. It is a fake pandemic. The coronavirus is in terms of harmfulness, mortality, and transmissibility comparable to the seasonal flu and I can only reject the extreme disproportionate measures that are taken by our governments. There is no emergency situation. It was all orchestrated to make you fearful enough to take the vaccine… It might possibly change your DNA. This is irreversible and be irreparable for all future generations, an experiment on humanity. I would never give it to myself, my patients, or my loved ones. We are no guinea pigs, there is nanotechnology present in this vaccine.” Cullum, a US-based chiropractic physician, says, “This is not a real medical pandemic the world is enduring at this time, the vaccine has not been proven safe or effective”.

Borch, a German journalist in science and medicine, advises against the vaccine, “Do not take this vaccine. This vaccine is dangerous. This pandemic is a fraud.” Fierlafijn, a medical doctor from Belgium and specialist in chronic infectious diseases such as lime, Epstein-Barr, and molt, warns that “Covid19 vaccine is not proven safe, nor effective, and I think it’s unacceptable, that all liabilities have been waived for the company that is producing it. If Pharma doesn’t take responsibility for the products they make, how can they expect doctors to inject it into their patients without a doubt of doing harm? More and more we see that this is really not a medical pandemic, the measures for Corona cause far more collateral damage than the virus causes itself, worldwide we see that the numbers of cases are falsely presented in order to drive the population to obedient behaviour and to vaccination, so please be critical.” Dr. Vernon Coleman, a respected British Doctor added his voice and noted that “I have recorded numerous videos about vaccines, written numerous articles and a book about vaccines (written in 2011) and I don’t have anything more to say about the damned things. I shan’t be having any covid-19 or flu vaccination but what everyone else does is, of course, a choice they must make for themselves.”

Given the above, there is something that is not right about COVID-19. The disease and the vaccine solution are controversial. It is not just about verification claims, the big pharmaceuticals, their backers, and the mainstream western media under their control, are fighting back to jab all of us with a vaccine that has a big question mark. As Coleman has said, the choice is for us to make. Jean Jacques Rousseau has argued in his Social Contract that the reason the state of nature was not anarchic but rule-governed is because of man’s desire to perpetuate humanity and not to destroy it. It seems to me that this is the big task before progressive humankind. Next week, I shall address vaccine hesitancy among Africans.
