Dr Phillip Altman has more than 40 years experience as an Australian authority on clinical trials and drug regulation. He is a reverred authority on the subject

Here he expresses his deep concerns about the safety of #covidvaccines

#nz #informedconsent #mrna #adverseevents
He cautions that "covid vaccines" are not ordinary vaccines and instead fall under the definition of "gene therapy". As such they come with unique and unimaginable genetic risk. That of PERMANENT intergenerational adverse effects
Precisely why until now, mRNA "vaccines" have ONLY been used in rare situations with extremely sick people, mostly with terminal disease, where they are worth a try as the alternative is already death

A new #nz OIA answers questions about #nz #covidvaccine status for All Cause Mortality in NZ for 2022

eg no matter what the cause of a death, what was the covid vaccine status of that person at the time of their death

let's explore the graphical representation of the data supplied through Stats NZ, and make some observations and ask some questions

This graph shows deaths per 100,000 by vaccination status e.g. in the unvaccinated how many people died of ANYTHING per 100,000 unvaxed
and so on through each of the different vaccine demographics. We are comparing the number of deaths per 100,000 for unvaccinated, fully vaccinated and boosted. The per 100,000 comparison removes the confounding variable of differing sizes of the demographics

The first ever EU Periodic Safety Update Report covering 6 month period 19 Dec 2020-18 June 2021 reveals damning safety signals for the #Pfizer #covidvaccine. Released through Official Info Application
The objective of the report is to present a comprehensive and critical analysis of the risk-benefit balance of the product, taking into account new or emerging safety information in the context of cumulative information on risk and benefits.’

#adverseevents #informedconsent #nz
The report was submitted by Pfizer to the European Medicine Agency. The EMA then assesses the information found in the report to determine if any new risks are identified or if the risk-benefit balance has changed.

On December 13, 2020, @ONThealth distributed a "script for health care providers" for "obtaining informed consent" from patients receiving a dose of the @pfizer @BioNTech_Group #COVID19 #mrna #vaccine. 💉🧬

@ONThealth @pfizer @BioNTech_Group @OntarioHealthOH What was @ONThealth instructing doctors/nurses/pharmacists/@CineplexMovies parking lot volunteers to tell patients at the time, in order to receive #informedconsent? 🧐 Image
"The vaccine we are offering today is called Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine. This vaccine has been shown to help the body protect itself from becoming sick against the new coronavirus, COVID-19."

Of course, you'll need two doses for it to work. Just two! Image

What happened in #nz if you had an Anaphylactic Shock to your first dose of #pfizer?

Both #pfizer and the world knew that serious Anaphylaxis was a serious risk for those with an unknown PEG allergy

#informedconsent #nz #adverseevents #covidvaccines #mrna
PEG is a highly reactive chemical used to encase the Lipid Nano Particles that in turn encase the mRNA code. In the sensitive it can cause immediate life threatening allergic reaction often needing urgent transfer to hospital and resuscitation
Pfizer warn of PEG allergy and state it is a clear contraindication to receiving the #CovidVaccines

In #NZ if you already knew you had a PEG allergy, and were mandated, you could NOT receive a medical exemption from injection in the many months we ONLY had Pfizer in the country

#Israel was one of the 1st countries to roll out #pfizer #covidvaccine nationwide. They only used Pfizer and heavily vaccinated the population. For the first year of roll out they had virtually NO safety pharmacovigilence system in place to find early safety warnings and respond
Finally in early 2022 a team was convened to collect and analyse #adverseevent data. The team identified 22 categories of adverse events, including safety signals not listed by Pfizer such as neurological side effects, tinnitus and others.
They also found that there were many long-term adverse reactions; in 50% of the reports in which duration was mentioned at all, the side effect lasted longer than SIX MONTHS.

Here, we posit that the reporting period for AEs related to the COVID-19 vaccines may need to be longer (than the traditional 6 weeks for other vaccines)
In this retrospective, observational study, we aimed to assess the chronology of new/worsening ailments occurring after the administration of COVID-19 vaccines based on the changes to the participants’ pharmacological records.
Patients vaccinated against COVID-19 and experiencing health-related events during the study period (between September 30, 2021 and July 15, 2022) were included and the changes to their pharmacological records were analyzed.

🧵 Reducing #PrescribingCascades ⬇️

1/ What are #Prescribing Cascades?

1⃣ A drug is prescribed 💊
2⃣ #AdverseEvent occurs but is misinterpreted as a new medical condition ⚠️
3⃣Another drug is prescribed for the drug-induced adverse event 💊💊

ti.ubc.ca/letter138 #MedEd Image
2/ Anticholinergics ➡️ cognitive dysfunction ➡️ drugs for #dementia

#Anticholinergic 💊 block acetylcholinergic neurotransmission in the brain, impairing cognition & memory

Can lead to new Rx or ↗️ acetylcholinesterase inhibitor doses

ti.ubc.ca/letter138 #MedEd #FOAMed Image
3/ Drugs for #dementia ➡️ incontinence ➡️ anticholinergics

Conversely, AChE-I can cause urinary or fecal incontinence, that may "cascade" to prescription of an #anticholinergic

Can you monitor maternal & fetal safety in clinical trials in pregnancy? Now you can, with #MFAET version 1.0 published this week @ISPDHQ
The 12 maternal & 19 fetal Adverse Event definitions are adopted by @MedDRAMSSO

1/ Researchers @ucl @UCL_IfWH @UCLHresearch have developed a standard terminology for safety monitoring for pregnant women and their fetuses during development of drugs for pregnancy. #Pregnancy #AdverseEvents #MaternalSafety #fetus #MedDRA #MFAET
ucl.ac.uk/news/2021/oct/…
2/ Adverse Event (AE) monitoring is central to assess therapeutic safety. The lack of an AE framework in pregnancy trials severely limits understanding risks in pregnant women. #MFAET was developed by international consensus of healthcare professionals & patient public groups.
