The COVID-19 pandemic will always be an era surrounded in fear and controversy.
With President-elect Donald Trump appointing Robert F. Kennedy Jr. to head the Department of Health and Human Services, answers about the pandemic may be on the horizon — if Kennedy is confirmed.
As legacy media outlets move further away from the fear mongering about the pandemic, researchers continue to examine the aftermath of lockdowns, the coronavirus and the vaccines produced by Big Pharma.
South Arkansas Reckoning looked at a 50-page study by a team of researchers from abroad — Australia.
According to researchers Peter Parry, Astrid Lefringhausen, Conny Turni, Christopher J. Neil, Robyn Cosford, Nicholas J. Hudson, and Julian Gillespie, Daniel López, the paper's editor, the world is facing a potential crisis well beyond the measure of even the most critical points during the pandemic.
Their 2023 research paper Spikeopathy’: COVID-19 Spike Protein Is Pathogenic, from Both Virus and Vaccine mRNA was published in a special Biomedicines issue, “Emerging Issues in COVID-19 and Neutralizing Antibodies.”
The researchers stated:
“The COVID-19 pandemic caused much illness, many deaths, and profound disruption to society. The production of ‘safe and effective’ vaccines was a key public health target. Sadly, unprecedented high rates of adverse events have overshadowed the benefits. This two-part narrative review presents evidence for the widespread harms of novel product COVID-19 mRNA and adenovectorDNA vaccines and is novel in attempting to provide a thorough overview of harms arising from the new technology in vaccines that relied on human cells producing a foreign antigen that has evidence of pathogenicity. This first paper explores peer-reviewed data counter to the ‘safe and effective’ narrative attached to these new technologies. Spike protein pathogenicity, termed ‘spikeopathy’, whether from the SARS-CoV-2 virus or produced by vaccine gene codes, akin to a ‘synthetic virus’, is increasingly understood in terms of molecular biology and pathophysiology. Pharmacokinetic transfection through body tissues distant from the injection site by lipid-nanoparticles or viral-vector carriers means that ‘spikeopathy’ can affect many organs. The inflammatory properties of the nanoparticles used to ferry mRNA; N1-methylpseudouridine employed to prolong synthetic mRNA function; the widespread biodistribution of the mRNA and DNA codes and translated spike proteins, and autoimmunity via human production of foreign proteins, contribute to harmful effects. This paper reviews autoimmune, cardiovascular, neurological, potential oncological effects, and autopsy evidence for spikeopathy. With many gene-based therapeutic technologies planned, a re-evaluation is necessary and timely.”
This is the point where this study fully becomes completely captivating.
According to the paper's researchers, they examined “the solid evidence for a counter-narrative to the ‘safe and effective’ message that has accompanied the novel product COVID-19 vaccines, which were developed at ‘warp speed’ with great hope to end the pandemic.”
“This evidence has accumulated and dampened the original optimism. The implications for the recognition of vaccine-related diagnoses and the need for therapeutics are significant for all health practitioners and many research scientists to consider.”
The legacy media fact checkers and the social media police debunked and labeled information related to “gene therapy” as a conspiracy theory.
Let's continue on with the study.
“Key problem areas appear to be (1) the toxicity of the spike protein—both from the virus and also when produced by gene codes in the novel COVID-19 mRNA and adenovector DNA vaccines [1,2], hence the novel term ‘spikeopathy’; (2) inflammatory properties of certain lipid-nanoparticles used to ferry mRNA [3]; (3) N1-methylpseudouridine in the synthetic mRNA that causes long-lasting action [4]; (4) widespread biodistribution of the mRNA [5] and DNA [6,7] codes via the lipid-nanoparticle and the viral-vector carrier matrices, respectively and (5) the problem of human cells producing a foreign protein in our ribosomes that can engender autoimmunity.”
The study states:
“The emergence of SARS-CoV-2 in late 2019, and the associated disease of COVID-19, declared by March 2020 as a global pandemic by the WHO, has caused much illness, and many deaths in the elderly and the at-risk, and seriously disrupted society. An umbrella literature review of publications between December 2019 and August 2021 revealed that the greatest risk of mortality due to COVID-19 was associated with cardiovascular disease, cerebrovascular disease, and chronic renal disease [10]. The production of safe and effective vaccines to halt the COVID-19 pandemic was one of the most important public health interventions. Many COVID-19 vaccines have been developed across the world. In non-Western nations, most vaccines have used traditional protein-based or inactivated virus technologies. The mRNA and adenovector DNA vaccines have been produced by large pharmaceutical companies and favoured by regulators in most Western nations. It has been widely claimed that these vaccines have saved millions of lives. Sincere hopes have been held for this narrative. But this belief is largely founded on early Infection Fatality Rate (IFR) modelling estimates and Pfizer, Moderna, AstraZeneca and Janssen claims of efficacy, which have been undermined by new data.”
Obviously, this study contains a lot of technical language. After all, the authors and editors compiled this information for their peers, not the general public.
The next section is interesting. This study’s narrative is in direct conflict with the spin of legacy media.
In the study’s “Narrative Review Methodology” the researchers provide “evidence for the toxicity and thus pathogenicity of the spike protein, independent of its role as a pathogenic determinant in SARS-CoV-2 infection. This is whether from the SARS-CoV-2 virus or produced by genetic code in human cells directly by mRNA (Pfizer and Moderna) or by mRNA derived from the adenovectorDNA (AstraZeneca and Janssen) COVID-19 vaccines.”
According to this research contracting COVID-19 is bad, but their research also shows: “This is from SARS-CO-2 virus or produced by genetic code in human cells directly by mRNA”.
Legacy media's talking heads called everyone crazy or conspiracy theorists for believing that the new cutting-edge vaccines would alter human DNA. According to the Australian researchers, the people that legacy media termed conspiracy theorists may have been right all along.
Here are a few of the eighteen “Key Points” from the study, the researchers emphasize:
- “SARS-CoV-2 spike protein is pathogenic, whether from the virus or created from genetic code in mRNA and adenovectorDNA vaccines.”
- “Biodistribution rodent study data show lipid nanoparticles carry mRNA to all organs and cross blood-brain and blood-placenta barriers. Some of these tissues are likely to be impervious to viral infection; therefore, the biohazard is particularly from vaccination.”
- “In the young and healthy, and even in many older individuals with vulnerable comorbidities, the encoding-based COVID-19 vaccines will likely transfect a far more diverse set of tissues than infection by the virus itself.”
- “Interaction of the vaccine-encoded spike protein with ACE-2, P53 and BRCA1 suggests a wide range of possible biological interference with oncological potential.”
- “The SARS-CoV-2 pandemic has revealed deficiencies in public health and medicines regulatory agencies.”
On that last point, is the fox really guarding the hen house in the FDA? Kennedy was very pointed throughout this election cycle about the FDA.
Multiple posts show Kennedy's positions a on the COVID-19 vaccines and his overall skepticism concerning the FDA and Big Pharma. He openly posts on social media. Here is a post that can be found on X.
The information in this article from Australian researchers published on the National Institute of Health (NIH) website could ultimately be damning.
If true, the potential negative effects could completely reshape the scientific world. Let's look at the results cited from an autopsy the researchers included in the study.
“An autopsy case of a 76-year-old man revealed COVID-19 vaccine spike proteins were the cause of death [167]. Clinically this subject had cardiovascular adverse effects from the day of his first vaccination (AstraZeneca) in May 2021, and neurological and psychiatric changes after his second vaccination (Pfizer) in July 2021, then collapsed and died 3 weeks after his booster (Pfizer) in December 2021. Acute and chronic inflammatory and cellular degeneration changes affected his brain and heart. Immunohistochemical stains showed spike protein in blood vessel walls, in glial cells in the brain, and in “cardiac endothelial cells that showed lymphocytic myocarditis” [167] (p. 8). Additionally, “immunohistochemical staining did not detect the SARS-CoV-2 nucleocapsid protein”, such that the author concluded: “the presence of spike protein must be ascribed to vaccination rather than to viral infection”
Disturbing? How could something like this occur in the modern world and continue to be downplayed across media? The researchers answered some of those questions.
In an effort to establish whether or not the population of unvaccinated individuals suffered worse outcomes during the pandemic the research became skewed, according to the researchers.
“Accurate estimates of lives saved or lost as a result of the COVID-19 gene-based vaccines would have required long-term studies in vaccinated compared to unvaccinated individuals. Pfizer, Moderna, AstraZeneca and Janssen eventually vaccinated almost all placebo subjects and thus lost their control group. This was based on ethical principles given the fear of COVID-19 [17], but the loss to scientific integrity of only having short-term placebo-controlled trials was noted by the WHO Ad Hoc Expert Group on the Next Steps for Covid-19 Evaluation (2020)”
To overcome the deficit created by the loss of the placebo groups mentioned above, Control Group Cooperative, a private company located in the United Kingdom, “has collected data since the COVID-19 vaccination rollout, and is the only world-wide control group. Of this unvaccinated cohort 18,497 participated in a survey reporting COVID-19 positive testing and symptom severity between September 2021 and February 2022. A quarter (4636, 25.1%) reported experiencing symptomatic COVID-19 illness. Symptoms were reported as “mild” by 14.4%, “moderate” by 8.7% and “severe” by 2%. A further 560 reported asymptomatic illness and of the 5196 with COVID-19, only 74 (1.4%) reported attending hospital (as in- or out-patients) with 21 (0.4%) being hospitalised for longer than 1 week. As a self-reported survey, the limitations included deaths that may not have been reported; nonetheless, the cohort fared better than expected. The group was perhaps unusual in that 71% partook of some combination of vitamins C, D, quercetin, zinc and off-label ivermectin or hydroxychloroquine where available [20].”
Continuing on:
“In this context, the Australian State Government (NSW) health data from November and December 2022 [21] (Figure 1 and Figure 2) demonstrate that the unvaccinated are almost not represented in the hospitalisation data while the most vaccinated are over-represented. The proportion of unvaccinated in NSW was low at 3.2%; however, the proportion of unvaccinated with severe COVID-19 is lower than this in late 2022 at 2.9%. Even accounting for more COVID-19 vaccine boosters in the elderly and vulnerable, the data do not suggest significant efficacy against hospitalisation, ICU admission and death, at least after the emergence of the Omicron strain.”
Americans heard repeatedly in this country from media that vitamins, quercetin, zinc, the “horse wormer” ivermectin and hydroxychloroquine were not effective in the fight against COVID-19.
Yet this study cites: “Only 74 (1.4%) of the 18,497 unvaccinated people reported they had to seek help from a hospital only 21 reported being hospitalised for more than a week.”
In fact, the legacy media along with medical experts said throughout 2021 that hospitals were overwhelmed with the unvaccinated especially after vaccines were readily available and new COVID-19 variants circulated.
What's true?
The RFK Jr. Factor
In a post on “X” in late October Kennedy sent a strong message to those inside the FDA
If Congress confirms Kennedy, the FDA may, in fact, start to crumble like legacy media.
That’s because Kennedy has sent another devastating blow. He intends on separating the influence of Big Pharma’s spin by banning advertising dollars. Legacy media’s budgets could be drastically reduced.
If that happens, will studies like the one from Australia be discussed on American airwaves by legacy media? If Kennedy halts advertising dollars from Big Pharma, will that influence news coverage?
The legacy media could soon have very little power in controlling the echo chamber they have created. Truly independent news outlets like South Arkansas Reckoning are bringing back real news with information that allows the reader to determine the truth.
Here at the Reckoning we continue our sales pitch to readers. We need more upgraded paid subscriptions. Simply put, we are not legacy media. We do not depend on advertising dollars or grants to run our business. We grow and prosper by bringing you deeper stories than legacy media. We provide you with the information necessary for you to draw your own conclusions.
Researchers from around the world have obviously produced work that has been ignored. Their work coincides with the views held by millions of Americans who were dubbed “conspiracy theorists” including Robert F. Kennedy Jr.
