Doctor’s Should Speak Out! Well…
Let me show the climate in the emergency medicine community about vaccine safety. This is from a facebook post made 24 hours ago.
Original post:
From a literature that most BAFERDs won’t be aware of…
15 patients with severe cardiomyopathy (EF 14%-36%) thought to be due to a COVID vaccine underwent endomyocardial biopsy. Tissues were investigated with immunohistochemical stains.
Findings: 1. Half of the patients expressed the spike protein on the surfaces of cardiomyocytes.
2. The inflammatory infiltrates were predominantly CD4+ and CD8+ lymphocytes indicating that this was an autoimmune reaction.
I was very surprised to learn how widely the LNP of the vaccine distributed. And now that at least one important tissue, the heart, is expressing the spike protein and triggering autoimmune reactions.

Responses from the Emergency medicine physicians
This is surprising how? Though rare, the Moderna and Pfizer vaccines have been associated with an elevated risk of myocarditis.
However, even among the highest risk group (teenage boys) the risk of cardiac conditions was higher after Covid infection than vaccination.
My response to the above:
The MECHANISM is what is notable here. Injected into the deltoid muscle and the spike protein is found being produced in cardiomyocytes and triggering autoimmunity. In the normal developmental process for a vaccine this kind of thing would have been clarified before widespread use. Now we discover it after the fact.

I thought they said there’s no way the spike protein can be made elsewhere in the body other than the local site of injection?? [This was the one positive response]

My response to this post:
Yes. This is the primary finding. The lipid nanoparticles used as the delivery vehicle for 2 of the vaccines are widely distributed. The spike protein is made and expressed in many tissues.

My response to this post: There is still a big push to vaccinate boys as a requirement for entry into college. The adverse effects on this cohort must be in the discussion.
-------------------
Give it a rest. It is so exhausting to have you keep harping on this crap.
-------------------
I am an admitted skeptic and feel like the benefits of the vaccine far outweigh its (possible) risks.
What is LNP?
Study limitations:
“no causality can be assumed or established due to the lack of a control group and the observational character of a case series. Although other causes of myocardial inflammation have been ruled out, there is no direct evidence of a vaccine-induced inflammatory response in the presented cases”
….and as I do some more research see that the original poster [Me] promoted ivermectin and antivax so I’ll move along.

Unlike in COVID when you don’t make any spike protein? I’m struggling to understand.
------------
All this tells me is that if these patients get Covid, it’s quite likely their case of myocarditis will be much worse……
------------
No ones changing camps. Let it go already…
------------
What’s the rate of mortality and morbidity of COVID vs vaccinations? I think it has been accepted by medicine that any treatments have potential side effects but that the benefit of the treatment outweighs the risk. Isn’t that the basis of what we do everyday? Why is this rationale all of a sudden different because it’s COVID related?

My response to the above post:

My response to the above:
Yes. Definitely agree with the weighing of risk/benefits as the most important metric to attend too. This is where I look, also. In the college aged cohort, the risk of death is very very low. Looks like about 0.001%. (and this is from the time frame where death “with” COVID was not being distinquished from death “from” COVID) ------ And the newer information to include into this calculus is how little the vaccination reduces infection / transmission rates. In fact, after 4 months, booster efficacy turns negative–infection rates are INCREASED in the thrice vaccinated as compared to the never vaccinated. This demands some major reorganization of our thinking.

After reading the abstract, I will continue to not be aware of this literature.

Me:
A surprising finding is that the Pfizer 6 month follow-up paper showed that All-Cause mortality in the vaccinated and unvaccinated groups were the same. This data point is NOT reported in the main body of the paper. You have to look into the supplementary appendix (page 11) to find it. Link below

Me; If one truly wanted to “follow the science” (what a great marketing slogan) one would have to conclude that the Pfizer vaccine actually showed no benefit over a 6 month period. So enough of the dismissive comments. There is real reason to attend to the broader effects of the vaccines. Original paper: https://www.nejm.org/doi/full/10.1056/nejmoa2110345
No further comments have been added after my last one.
