This information is being provided on a periodic basis for patients and others interested in updates regarding the Coronavirus (COVID-19, Sars-CoV-2).  Facts are provided.  My comments and opinions are listed separately.  The goal of these updates has been to help the community in keeping informed of issues regarding Coronavirus from a local medical perspective.  As a clinical immunologist, I believe it is vital that information be shared with regard to this important issue.  If you would like to receive this information via Email, feel free to Email us at aasc1234@protonmail.com .   Readers are encouraged to seek as much information as possible regarding COVID-19.  Your patience with any unintentional typos in these updates is appreciated!


Fact:

We have treated a significant number of patients with COVID-19 over the past two weeks.  However, this week, we have seen a decrease in the number of cases.  Like March/April 2021, this office has seen a peak of calls regarding COVID-19 over the span of about 10 days, followed by a week of few calls, and then another 10 days of heavy phone calls regarding active COVID-19 symptoms.

Despite over 79% of Michiganders over the age of 65 having received at least one dose of an experimental gene therapy COVID-19 vaccination, they remain overwhelmingly the most significant group of people to die from COVID-19.  The vaccines have had no impact on the death rates in this group according to data generated by the state of Michigan.

Comment/Opinion:

We can learn a lot regarding COVID-19 when we treat and follow those with the infection.  This is only one office’s experience, but it nonetheless is of interest and may be helpful in treating patients.  Comparisons can be made to previous flares of COVID-19 in our area.

One significant observation is that this latest increase in COVID-19 cases is disproportionately severely attacking men compared to women.  Although both sexes are getting COVID-19, the only group getting hospitalized (indicating severe symptoms requiring supplemental oxygen) are men (in the patients with whom we have interacted).  Nausea, fever, back pain, severe fatigue, and lung symptoms are very common now.  Loss of taste or smell is not a common symptom with this latest flare.  Taken together, these indicate a distinct possibility that we are seeing a new variant of COVID-19 in our area.  There is significant controversy with regard to the concept of variants of COVID-19 as less than 5% of COVID-19 swabs are being analyzed for variants.  Furthermore, the science of identifying variants is at times seemingly sketchy, i.e., what is defined as a variant and how was it found?  However, after following scores of COVID-19 positive patients and their symptoms, it is clear to me that COVID-19 continues to evolve.  The death rate and hospitalization rates of COVID-19 remain extremely low.  Nonetheless, it can be deadly and no treatment is 100% effective in curing this disease or stopping death from COVID-19 in all cases.  We can only do our best to be prudent in trying to prevent illness and in actively treating the disease as early as possible.  We continue to see significant benefit in the use of early multi-medicine treatment for COVID-19.

One of the treatments that can be extremely effective in combating COVID-19 is the EARLY use of monoclonal antibody therapy.  It is safe and has received Emergency Use Authorization by the FDA for COVID-19.  The challenge is getting it early. There are also moral reservations for this   treatment as its development has involved the use of fetal stem cells.  It must be given in an infusion center and is currently distributed by the Michigan Department of Health and Human Services to certain facilities.  Our experience has been that the demand has far outstripped the ability of various facilities to give out the infusions.  Nonetheless, we continue to try in our efforts to get early treatment for COVID-19.  The use of these infusions for a high risk individual who carries a significant risk of death from COVID-19 may be a consideration.

It is clear that COVID-19 is not going away, appears less lethal, is certainly still contagious, and is still very treatable.  The misinformation regarding this disease remains very significant.  (See below.)  

Fact:

Misinformation regarding COVID-19 continues to be prominent.  Discussions regarding raw data are often lacking.

Attorney Thomas Renz has released a presentation of data he received from the Center for Medicare Services (Medicare) regarding COVID-19 treatment and vaccination in the elderly population of the United States.  The Medicare population makes up about 20% of the American population and has been significantly impacted by COVID-19.

ATTORNEY THOMAS RENZ “We Got Them. Fact Check This!” ALL NEW WHISTLEBLOWER INFO


Comment/Opinion: 

This latest information regarding COVID-19 should be concerning to us all.  We need to take a long and hard look at how we as a nation are dealing with this disease.

Fact:

Data continues to come in regarding the currently available COVID-19 experimental COVID-19 vaccination effectiveness.  In Israel, where 60% of the population is vaccinated and over 80% of those over the age of 50 have been vaccinated, the rates of COVID-19 positive tests reached an all-time high in Israel between  August 28 – September 3, 2021.

In a report of a British Royal Navy ship where all of the sailors were vaccinated, a COVID-19 breakout occurred in which at least 100 sailors got sick with COVID-19. 

12 out the 13 most COVID-19 vaccinated countries in the world have been listed by the CDC as the most risky for getting COVID-19 if you travel there.

In Michigan, we received information that one school noted 9 teachers out with positive COVID-19 tests and symptoms.  7 out of the 9 were vaccinated.  In another school, 8 high school students were found to be COVID-19 positive despite regularly wearing masks and being vaccinated.  Reports continue to come in regarding many of the hospitalized patients with COVID-19 having been vaccinated despite news reports claiming the majority of these patients are unvaccinated.

73% of Michigan residents over the age 65 have been vaccinated with the experimental COVID-19 vaccinations.  This age group is still the most likely to die from COVID-19 (although over 95% of patients in this age group will survive a bout of COVID-19).

Comment/Opinion:

It is becoming increasingly clear that whatever the intentions may have been in promoting vaccination with the experimental gene therapy COVID-19 vaccinations, they are not changing the trajectory of COVID-19 infection.  They are not decreasing the risk of infection.  There is no consistent science in stating the severity of infection is less with these vaccines.  

Fact:

The safety of the experimental gene therapy COVID-19 vaccinations continues to be concerning to many individuals.  Recent data reveals that between 140,000 and 1.4 million Americans have died in association with the experimental gene therapy COVID-19 vaccinations.  80% of the deaths have occurred within 7 days of vaccination.  This is based on Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System Data and related research that VAERS data only represents 1-10% of the total number of reactions to the vaccines.

As of September 7, 2021, the CDC received reports of 14,115 patients with COVID-19 who were vaccinated and hospitalized.  The death rate was 25%.  This is over twice the death rate of those who were unvaccinated.

A German scientist has determined that at least 30-40% of those who died within two weeks of the vaccine died from the vaccines.  

In another study, 86% of deaths within 2 weeks of vaccination in the United States were determined to be most likely from the vaccines.

Welcome

 

Comment/Opinion: 

The death rates associated with experimental gene therapy COVID-19 vaccinations is increasingly worrisome and alarming.  We now have data not only to look at safety and effectiveness of vaccination, but also to look at how the vaccines are affecting the trajectory of the virus.

The latest statistics seem to be confirming predictions of various experts last year.  They warned about the safety of the vaccines.  They predicted that the vaccines would not be effective.  Most alarming is that some of them predicted that these vaccines would cause an increase in the death rate from COVID-19. 

The latest data from the CDC is revealing that in severely ill COVID-19 patient who have been vaccinated and hospitalized, their death rate is incredibly high.  Their death rate is significantly higher than an unvaccinated individual, based on the data presented on the CDC website.  Based on the CDC data, patients who have been vaccinated have an increased risk of death from COVID-19 if they become severely ill with the virus.  This is most likely due to a variety of factors.  One of them is that the immune system develops an autoimmune disease-type structure after vaccination.  This then leads to the body’s immune system actually attacking the body (together with the vaccine) when a vaccinated patient then comes into contact with the live virus.  This situation leads to a messed up immune system and damage to the body; this can be deadly.  Both active infection AND a hyper-autoimmune response play a role in causing severe illness and death. 

Combined with the lack of effectiveness of the vaccines and the risk of problems with the vaccines, the current COVID-19 vaccine program should be put on hold and a thorough review of the program be initiated.  How many people must be harmed and killed before this data will be given to those who are thinking about getting vaccinated?  Anyone considering vaccination should seriously look over this data prior to making any final decisions regarding vaccination.

Getting booster vaccines may only worsen these statistics.  

The data presented here is from the CDC.  Why the CDC is not alarmed regarding their own statistics is a question that remains to be answered.  COVID is increasing in our community.  It can be deadly.  The “cure” should not be worse than the disease itself.  This office will continue to closely monitor this virus.  Early treatment remains the key to preventing severe illness from COVID-19.

Fact:

The country of Israel has become a source of significant information regarding the experimental mRNA COVID-19 vaccinations, as its vaccination rates are among the highest of any country in the world.  Despite over 75% of the adult population having received experimental gene therapy COVID-19 vaccinations, Israel recorded a record number of COVID-19 cases last week.

Sources:

Comment/Opinion:

The experimental gene therapy COVID-19 vaccinations do not prevent COVID-19 according to mounting information on an almost weekly basis.  But what about news stating that vaccinated patients are less likely to be hospitalized or be very ill?  If one looks at these news reports, it becomes clear early on that the statistics used are old and/or include periods of time when no vaccines were given and most, if not all, cases of COVID-19 were in people who were not vaccinated.  This makes comparing vaccinated vs. unvaccinated populations impossible to compare.  With regard to Israel, we can compare cases prior to when there was widespread vaccination to now, where there is widespread vaccination.  What we are seeing is record cases in Israel with a population that is largely vaccinated.

Fact:

A New England Journal of Medicine article is revealing a spike in cases of COVID-19 among vaccinated healthcare workers that outpaced those who were not vaccinated.  From March to July, 2021, COVID-19 cases in vaccinated workers went from 3 to 94 cases, i.e., a 31 times increase in cases.  With regard to unvaccinated workers, cases during the same period of time increased from 11 to 31 cases, i.e., a 2.8 times increase in cases.

Source:  https://www.nejm.org/doi/full/10.1056/NEJMc2112981

Comment/Opinion:

Could the experimental gene therapy COVID-19 vaccinations actually cause more COVID-19 infections?  That would be very unlikely.  But what is then causing vaccinated individuals to get more illness than unvaccinated individuals?  Isn’t vaccination supposed to decrease illness?

A very possible explanation is that these vaccines are causing reactions in people who are vaccinated and then exposed to COVID-19.  These reactions resemble COVID-19, can be as severe as or more severe (and even deadly) than the infection itself, and are the result of what is called antibody dependent enhancement or pathologic priming.  This reaction has been noted in animal studies from previous attempts to produce vaccines for coronaviruses. 

When someone gets the experimental gene therapy COVID-19 vaccinations, the cells of the body that have taken in the gene therapy vaccines start producing spike proteins that are similar, but not completely identical, to the spike proteins of COVID-19.  In pathologic priming, the immune system gets hyperactivated when exposed to the live COVID-19 virus.  The immune system then attacks those cells of the body that have taken in the gene therapy experimental vaccines in addition to trying to fight off the virus.  This seems to be what is going on with the increase in COVID-19 cases reported among the vaccinated.

This process of pathologic priming was predicted by numerous experts in the field of virology last year with regard to these vaccines.  It seems as if pathologic priming may explain the significant rise of COVID-19 related illness in Israel.

Fact:

Previous infection with COVID-19 offers strong immunity to infection.  A recent study showed that those who had COVID-19 had better protection against COVID-19 than vaccinated people.  The conclusions of the study include the following:

“This study demonstrated that natural immunity confers longer lasting and stronger protection against infection, symptomatic disease and hospitalization caused by the Delta variant of SARS-CoV-2, compared to the BNT162b2 (Pfizer Vaccine) two-dose vaccine-induced immunity.”

Comment/Opinion:

The natural infection of COVID-19 is better than the experimental mRNA COVID-19 vaccinations by far.

An Update Regarding the Coronavirus August 26, 2021 from Dr. Dubravec

An Update Regarding the Coronavirus 

Dr. Martin Dubravec
August 26, 2021
 
This information is being provided on a periodic basis for patients and others interested in updates regarding the Coronavirus (COVID-19, Sars-CoV-2).  Facts are provided.  My comments and opinions are listed separately.  The goals of these updates have been to help the community in keeping informed of issues regarding Coronavirus from a local medical perspective.  As a clinical immunologist, I believe it is vital that information be shared with regard to this important issue.  If you would like to receive this information via Email, feel free to Email us at aasc1234@protonmail.com .   Readers are encouraged to seek as much information as possible regarding COVID-19.  Your patience with any unintentional typos in these updates is appreciated!
 
Fact:
 
We continue to see some, but not more, cases of COVID-19 in our area as compared to last year.  Numbers of people with positive COVID-19 PCR tests is similar to last year at this time.  Peaks of COVID-19 occur quickly in a population.
 
 
Comment/Opinion:
 
Despite reports that over 50% or Michiganders are vaccinated for COVID-19, no significant changes in COVID-19 positive tests are occurring in Michigan.  This points to the lack of experimental gene therapy COVID-19 vaccination effectiveness.  Numbers of people with COVID-19 can be expected to decrease as the Labor Day weekend approaches, since COVID-19 cases rise and fall quickly.
 
Fact:  
 
The Centers for Disease Control of the United States are now recommending consideration of experimental COVID-19 vaccinations for certain populations.   The CDC also states that they plan to expand the recommendations for booster “vaccinations” to the general population.
 
The FDA has approved a formulation of the Pfizer experimental mRNA gene therapy vaccination for regular use.
 
Source:  
 
Comment/Opinion:  
 
In one of the most direct examples of experimental COVID-19 gene therapy vaccine failure, the CDC is admitting that these vaccines have not offered significant benefit in preventing COVID-19. What is unfortunately the case is that these are not vaccines. A vaccine is a medical intervention, either with a live bacteria or virus or with byproducts of bacteria and viruses, that produces an immune response to prevent future infection of the particular bacteria or virus. If it does not do this, it is not, by definition, a vaccine. These experimental gene therapies are showing that they are not able to prevent infection or lessen the viral loads in people who have been vaccinated. An example of this was provided by the CDC itself in July of 2021. In that case, an outbreak of COVID-19 in Massachusetts revealed that 74% of people who were diagnosed with COVID-19 were vaccinated. Furthermore, the amounts of virus noted in nasal swabs of those who were vaccinated as compared to those who were unvaccinated were the same. 
 
The recommendation by the CDC is a reflection of this data. This data has also prompted the CDC to recommend the use of masks in both vaccinated and unvaccinated individuals. 
 
The race towards vaccination is confusing and does not seem to be consistent with data provided by the CDC. The safety of experimental COVID-19 gene therapy vaccines has been questioned with thousands of people who have died in association with the vaccine and millions who have had reactions to these vaccines. On August 20, 2021, the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS), maintained by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, updated its data through August 13, 2021. Since mid-December, 2020, there have been 595,622 adverse events reported following COVID vaccination including 13,068 deaths. These are more deaths than all deaths reported during the entire 30 year history of the federal reporting system. In comparison, after approximately 50 deaths following swine flu vaccination in 1976, that vaccine campaign was immediately brought to a halt. This has been covered in other updates. Please see our previous updates or contact our office if you would like information regarding the safety concerns of these experimental gene therapy vaccines.   Based on the safety and effectiveness data provided by the CDC and FDA, this office cannot recommend these vaccines.
 
Fact:  
 
The Front Line Critical Care Alliance is a group of doctors who are treating COVID-19 and monitoring/updating their therapies as we gather new data with regard to changes in the virus that are occurring worldwide. They have recently updated their recommendations for prevention and acute treatment of acute COVID-19. These can be accessed at www.flccc.net.
Source:  www.flccc.net
 
Comment/Opinion:  
 
The Front Line Critical Care Alliance is an organization of dedicated physicians who are researching treatment for COVID-19. Their recommendations have been used in this office with significant success. Recently, they updated their recommendations due to concerns of the delta variant of COVID-19. This variant is more contagious but apparently less lethal. Nonetheless, this variant can make someone significantly ill and prevention/early treatment of COVID-19 is reasonable. 
 
Patients who are taking ivermectin as preventative for COVID-19 should consider increasing their dose to twice a week instead of every two weeks. It is unknown whether or not this will control COVID-19 delta variant symptoms as the delta variant is more contagious. However, due to the significant rise in delta variant cases worldwide, it is reasonable to consider this. 
 
Recently, doctors of the FLCCC discussed the possibility that new variants may be more contagious. There is also concern as to whether or not vaccinated individuals may be at increased risk for complications of COVID-19 infection due to antibody-dependent enhancement (pathologic priming) that has occurred in animals when these experimental gene therapies were tried. Time will tell. COVID-19, like other coronaviruses, tends to be more prevalent and more active in the wintertime. This office will be closely monitoring these developments. 
 
The possibility that vaccination could actually make one more susceptible to severe COVID-19 symptoms is a possibility due to pathologic priming. In this process, the experimental COVID-19 vaccinations actually make the body a spike protein factory. When a patient who has been vaccinated then comes into contact with live COVID-19, it can lead to the body attacking not only the virus but attacking any cells in the body that have genetic material from the vaccine. In this case, the immune system mistakenly attacks the body’s cells (that are producing spike protein) themselves in addition to the virus. This has been demonstrated in individuals who have received vaccination. Whether or not new variants will cause more of an immunologic response in patients remains to be seen. 
 
This further underscores concerns that many researchers have with the use of booster experimental COVID-19 vaccinations. These booster vaccinations could amplify pathologic priming and make the situation worse for patients who get COVID-19. There is ample research to show that the experimental COVID-19 vaccinations will not prevent patients from getting sick with new variants of COVID-19. 
 
Any patient who has COVID symptoms, especially if they have been vaccinated, should seek medical attention immediately. The use of ivermectin and hydroxychloroquine continues to be recommended. The dosing of these medications may change over time. If you have any questions regarding this, please contact your physician or this office for further information.

An Update Regarding the Coronavirus August 12, 2021 from Dr. Dubravec

An Update Regarding the Coronavirus 

Dr. Martin Dubravec

August 12, 2021

This information is being provided on a periodic basis for patients and others interested in updates regarding the Coronavirus (COVID-19, Sars-CoV-2).  Facts are provided.  My comments and opinions are listed separately.  The goals of these updates have been to help the community in keeping informed of issues regarding Coronavirus from a local medical perspective.  As a clinical immunologist, I believe it is vital that information be shared with regard to this important issue.  If you would like to receive this information via Email, feel free to Email us at aasc1234@protonmail.com .   Readers are encouraged to seek as much information as possible regarding COVID-19.  Your patience with any unintentional typos in these updates is appreciated! 

Fact:

We have seen an uptick in patients calling with clinical COVID-19 (that is, symptoms of COVID-19 with or without a positive COVID-19 PCR test).  Daily positive COVID-19 PCR tests are increasing slightly in Michigan but are nowhere near the peak seen in April 2021.

Comment/Opinion: 

We can expect cases of COVID-19 to increase over the next week.  If this increase is similar to other increases, we can expect COVID-19 cases to decrease by the end of August.  It is interesting that there seems to be an increase just in time for the new school year.  Also, this virus does not seem to be a wintertime virus like other Coronaviruses that have been circulating in the American population for decades.  However, as we move forward, it is a reasonable prediction that this virus will become just another seasonal cold virus as it becomes less lethal.

The increase in cases is thought secondary to a new strain of COVID-19 called delta variant COVID-19.  However, it is hard to tell as there are very few tests being performed on this virus to see if it is a variant.  Also, some experts in the field of virology are very skeptical about the testing that is being done with regard to its accuracy.

Like most viruses, COVID-19 is less lethal, but possibly more contagious, over time.  The influenza pandemic in the early 1900’s had multiple waves of cases in the United States over an 18 month period until it went through the population.   It is reasonable to expect periodic increases in cases.  This office will continue to monitor the data regarding this virus.

Fact:

The effectiveness of the experimental mRNA COVID-19 vaccinations has been called in to question.  Recent data from the United States and Great Britain have revealed that the vaccines may not provide significant protection or no protection at all.  Recent information by the CDC has shown that viral loads of infected patients are the same regardless of whether or not they have been vaccinated.

Dr. Kobi Haviv, medical director of Israel’s leading hospital for respiratory care, announced the following in an interview:

“85-90% of hospitalizations here are in fully vaccinated people.”

“the effectiveness of the vaccine is rapidly fading”

Source:  https://www.bitchute.com/video/PPo10V48ty36/

Comment/Opinion:

Why is there data showing that the experimental COVID-19 gene therapy vaccinations are not effective?  There are a few reasons:

These vaccines are causing the human body to become spike protein factories.  The theory is that as the body produces these spike proteins, our immune systems will develop a response to these proteins and attack spike proteins on a COVID-19 virus should we be infected with the virus.  However, the spike protein of the Coronavirus is prone to mutations.  If the spike protein mutates, it will change its molecular shape and the immune system will no longer recognize it if it relies on the vaccine which only produces one form of spike protein.  New variants of COVID-19 with mutated spike proteins are “invisible” to the immune system.

Another reason for the lack of effectiveness of these experimental gene therapy COVID-19 vaccinations is that the spike protein is a very small portion of the whole virus.  If you immunize to just the spike protein, that may not be enough of an immune response to kill off an entire virus.

Yet another reason for the failure seen with experimental gene therapy COVID-19 vaccinations is that this new vaccine technology is just not working the way it is developed to work in a lab or a computer program.  The human body is much more sophisticated than even the brightest researcher may envision.  Unfortunately, due to the lack of animal studies to look at and study this technology fully, human beings are the experiments for this new technology.  Never in human history has such a large undertaking been tried.

Fact:

The number of deaths associated with the experimental mRNA COVID-19 vaccinations  is confusing from CDC data.  When entering data points, the total number of deaths associated with the experimental gene therapy COVID-19 vaccination that are  reported on VAERS (Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System) is 12,370.  According to a Harvard study on the accuracy of VAERS, the number reported on VAERS represents only 1-10% of the total number of deaths associated with the experimental gene therapy COVID-19 vaccinations.  (The Harvard study can be accessed at numerous websites including the following:  

https://greatmountainpublishing.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/01/Harvard-Vaccine-Injury-Study-Page-6-Reveals-1-Percent-Report-Rate.pdf)

Therefore, the total number of deaths associated with the experimental gene therapy  COVID-19 vaccinations is 123,700 to 1, 237,000 deaths.

Comment/Opinion:

The total number of deaths associated with the experimental gene therapy COVID-19 vaccinations continues to rise.  This urgently needs to be investigated.  Getting the exact data from the VAERS system is confusing.  An organization called OpenVAERS is looking at this data daily and their numbers are consistent with those listed above.  This data reveals the notion that the experimental gene therapy COVID-19 vaccines are not safe.

Fact: 

As another example of governments dealing with COVID-19, an Australian health official has advised people not to talk to each other and that masks may not protect people from COVID-19.  She stated the following:  

“Whilst it is in human nature to engage in conversation with others, to be friendly, unfortunately this is not the time to do that. So even if you run into your next door neighbor in the shopping center, in the grocery shop… don’t start up a conversation. Now is the time for minimizing your interactions with others even if you’ve got a mask – do not think that affords total protection.”

Comment/Opinion:

None.

Fact: 

Many people are objecting to the experimental mRNA gene therapy COVID-19 vaccinations based on religious grounds in addition to scientific reasons.  Religious exemptions, in addition to medical exemptions, are being accepted in all locations based on observations thus far.

 Source:  Personhood Alliance offers religious exemption form for COVID vaccines



 

Comment/Opinion:

The use of fetal tissue in the development and/or testing of these vaccines is unnecessary and ethically indefensible.  An exemption form has been sent to me.  It may be a very useful template for those who object to vaccination with the experimental gene therapy COVID-19 vaccinations and is included in the next two pages of this update.  It is a good example of why people have chosen not to receive these vaccinations based on religious beliefs.

Religious, Moral, and Ethical Exemption from COVID-19 Vaccination Requirements 

The right to refuse medical treatment 

My individual right of bodily integrity and my right to refuse medical treatments—particularly, but not exclusively, experimental ones—for religious, moral, ethical, and medical reasons, is protected by federal law and regulatory policy. In most cases, my rights are also protected in state law. 

The FDA’s guidance on emergency use authorization (EUA) of medical products requires the FDA to “ensure that recipients are informed to the extent practicable given the applicable circumstances…that they have the option to accept or refuse the EUA product….” With respect to the emergency use of an unapproved product, the Federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act [Title 21 U.S.C. 360bbb-3(e)(1)(A)(ii)(I-III)] reiterates that individuals be informed of “the option to accept or refuse administration of the product, [and] of the consequences, if any, of refusing administration of the product, and of the alternatives to the product that are available and of their benefits and risks.” Moreover, the National Research Act of 1974 requires protection for human subjects from harm, undue injustice, and coercion, which necessitates fully informed consent for unapproved, experimental treatments. EUA products are unapproved, unlicensed, and experimental. Under the Nuremberg Code—the foundation of modern ethical medicine—no one can be forced or coerced to participate in a medical experiment. 

In addition, the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) has previously stated that institutions which mandate vaccines are subject to reporting requirements and legal liability for adverse events. These federal statutory laws pose potential financial and legal penalties if institutions unduly pressure employees and/or students to accept what are classified as experimental medicines. 

In summary, forced or coerced vaccination is a violation of my bodily integrity and therefore, is unethical and intrusive. Forced or coerced vaccination can also make institutions legally liable for damages that result from adverse events, including injury, permanent disability, and death. 

The duty to refuse an illicitly derived treatment 

As a Christian, I believe it is immoral for any institution to base, in whole or in part, an individual’s access to employment and/or education on receiving a medication derived from an abortion. The design, production, or testing of vaccines using the remains of aborted human beings, who did not consent to be experimented on and whose body parts were trafficked to provide the means for vaccine creation, is morally unacceptable. All of the COVID-19 vaccine products currently available in the U.S. under the FDA’s EUA were produced using aborted fetal cell lines, tested using aborted fetal cell lines, or both.

As a Christian, I oppose the trafficking and commodification of human beings at all stages of life, born and pre-born. I cannot, in good conscience, participate or accept practices that perpetuate and encourage the relationship between abortion, biomedical science, and human trafficking, no matter when that connection was initiated or how long a practice has been socially accepted. 

Humans are made in the image and likeness of God (Genesis 1:26). Christians have a duty to honor and care for the body God has given us as a temple of the Holy Spirit (Romans 12:1, 1 Corinthians 3:16, 1 Corinthians 6:20, 1 Corinthians 10:31). Therefore, to force or coerce a person to administer a substance into their body against their will is a violation of their personhood. Forced or coerced vaccination is also a violation of the dignity of the human person, because freedom of religion and freedom of conscience are fundamental to human dignity. 

Moreover, decisions regarding vaccination must be determined by the individual and the family, not by the jurisdiction of the State or any other authority, according to biblical mandate (Romans 13:1). I have a right to uphold my own bodily integrity and moral conscience and a right to refuse medical treatment. 

All humans also have a right not to be trafficked, commodified, and/or experimented on without their consent—born and pre-born—and to refuse to participate in acts that permit these violations to continue. As such, I am requesting a religious, moral, and ethical exemption from this institution’s COVID-19 vaccine policy based on my sincerely held personal religious, moral, and ethical beliefs.

An Update Regarding the Coronavirus July 22, 2021 from Dr. Dubravec

 An Update Regarding the Coronavirus 

Dr. Martin Dubravec

July 22, 2021

 This information is being provided on a periodic basis for patients and others interested in updates regarding the Coronavirus (COVID-19, Sars-CoV-2).  Facts are provided.  My comments and opinions are listed separately.  The goals of these updates have been to help the community in keeping informed of issues regarding Coronavirus from a local medical perspective.  As a clinical immunologist, I believe it is vital that information be shared with regard to this important issue.  If you would like to receive this information via Email, feel free to Email us at aasc1234@protonmail.com .   Readers are encouraged to seek as much information as possible regarding COVID-19.  Your patience with any unintentional typos in these updates is appreciated!

Fact:

 The safety of the experimental COVID-19 experimental vaccines continues to be monitored.  Based on the latest data from the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System, the following information is gathered.  The data from VAERS represents only 1-10% of all reactions to the experimental COVID-19 gene therapy vaccines.  Therefore, these numbers are reflective of this as of July 9, 2021, and are at least as high as or higher than listed below:

Deaths associated with experimental COVID-19 gene therapy vaccines:     109,910

Hospitalizations associated with experimental COVID-19 gene therapy vaccines: 307,810

Anaphylaxis immediately after experimental COVID-19 gene therapy vaccines:  24,870

Cardiac disease associated with experimental COVID-19 gene therapy vaccines:  39,060

Miscarriages associated with experimental COVID-19 gene therapy vaccines:  10,730

Source:  https://www.openvaers.com/covid-data

Comment/Opinion:

More and more data is being presented as to the safety, or lack of, regarding COVID-19 experimental gene therapy vaccines.  Because of this data, receiving the experimental COVID-19 experimental vaccines cannot be recommended.  

Fact:

The currently available COVID-19 experimental gene therapy vaccines have information provided in the boxes that contain the vaccines.  All of the vaccines carry information required to be printed by the FDA as follows:

Moderna Vaccine:

 “The recipient or their caregiver has the option to accept or refuse the Moderna COVID-19 Vaccine. “

Source:  https://www.fda.gov/media/144637/download  page 5

Pfizer Vaccine:

“WHAT IF I DECIDE NOT TO GET THE PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE? It is your choice to receive or not receive the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 Vaccine. Should you decide not to receive it, it will not change your standard medical care.”

Source:    page 5

Johnson and Johnson Vaccine:

“The recipient or their caregiver has the option to accept or refuse the Janssen COVID-19 Vaccine.”

Source:  https://www.fda.gov/media/146304/download  page 4

Comment/Opinion:

No one should be forced to receive any of these vaccinations.  Requiring these vaccines, based on the package information provided for them, is in violation of the FDA Emergency Use Authorization given to these COVID-19 experimental gene therapy vaccines.

Dr. Martin Dubravec – June 25, 2021 – An Update Regarding the Coronavirus Epidemic

This information is being provided for patients and others interested in updates regarding the Coronavirus (COVID-19, Sars-CoV-2).  Facts are provided.  My comments and opinions are listed separately.  The goals of these updates have been to help the community in keeping informed from a local medical perspective.  As a clinical immunologist, I believe it is vital that information be shared with regard to this important issue.  If you would like to receive this information via Email, feel free to Email us at aasc1234@protonmail.com .  Your patience with any unintentional typos in these updates is appreciated!

 
Fact:
 
The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) will place a heart inflammation warning label on fact sheets for COVID-19 vaccines made by Pfizer/BioNTech and Moderna, the agency announced on Wednesday.
 
This was made public during a special meeting of the CDC Wednesday (rescheduled from last week) which showed over 1,200 cases of myocarditis (heart inflammation) with the currently available experimental COVID-19 gene therapy vaccines.  79% of these cases involved males.  39% of cases were in children.  This represents a significant increase in cases since May 31, when only 800 cases of heart inflammation were recorded.
 
 
Comment/Opinion:
 
The use of new technology in a massive scale without adequate study (long-term animal studies, long-term and careful human studies) can lead to unforeseen consequences and danger.  This latest data regarding myocarditis (heart inflammation), an otherwise exceedingly rare condition, highlights the need to be cautious regarding experimental COVID-19 gene therapy vaccines. 
This is just another example of why this office continues to recommend against experimental COVID-19 gene therapy vaccine administration for almost all patients unless it is known which groups can safely receive these vaccines vs. those that may have significant risk in receiving the vaccines.  (There was a typo in last week’s update regarding this – thank you to those who pointed this out.)
 
It is inconceivable that an otherwise healthy young man, with virtually 0% risk of death or even significant illness from COVID-19, would receive an experimental COVID-19 gene therapy vaccine and then end up with lifelong heart damage and disability from a vaccine he didn’t need to receive in the first place.
 
Vaccines can and have been important tools in fighting illness.  However, all vaccines carry risks.  This office has seen more vaccine reactions from experimental COVID-19 gene therapy vaccines in the past six months than all other vaccines combined over the past 20 years.  Before receiving experimental COVID-19 gene therapy vaccines, patients should have the facts available so that they may make a decision whether or not to receive vaccination without pressure from anyone.
 
Fact:
 
As of June 11, 2021, the following have been reported to the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System:
 
395,520adverse reactions to experimental COVID-19 gene therapy vaccines
4,811 deaths associated with experimental COVID-19 gene therapy vaccines
 
Source:  
 
 
 
Comment/Opinion:
 
The information provided to the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS) represents only 1-10% of the expected adverse events and deaths from experimental COVID-19 gene therapy vaccines.  This is based on a Harvard Study which revealed that VAERS data, which is voluntary to report, does not represent most reactions and deaths due to vaccines.  Reporting to VAERS is not a quick process and many healthcare providers simply do not take the time to do so.
 
Therefore, if we look at the number of adverse reactions and deaths using the numbers representing this finding, we come up with the following:
 
3.95 million adverse reactions to experimental COVID-19 gene therapy vaccines
48,100 deaths due to experimental COVID-19 gene therapy vaccines  
 
Another way to look at this would be to look at death rates from vaccines over time and compare them to the past 6 months with the experimental COVID-19 gene therapy vaccines.  (The numbers are variable in this article and represent different ways VAERS reports deaths and adverse reactions, although the numbers are similar.) You can see the article at the following link:
 
.com/blog/2021/06/what_is_the_true_number_of_vaccinerelated_deaths.html
 
 
Are COVID-19 vaccines really safe?  This is a question each patient should ask themselves prior to receiving the vaccine or agreeing to a family member receiving the vaccine.
 
Fact:  
 
A new variant of COVID-19, named the delta variant, is making its way across the globe.  The risk of death from this variant seems to be very low, i.e., less than 1%.  However, people with a history of receiving the experimental COVID-19 gene therapy vaccines have a risk of death 6 times higher than those who did not receive the experimental COVID-19 gene therapy vaccines, according to a report from the Public Health Department of England.
 
Source:  
 
 
Comment/Opinion:
 
Although the COVID-19 epidemic is over, this office will continue to monitor this situation closely.  It is too early to know for sure what if any impact the latest version of COVID-19 will have on the United States.  Preliminary data showing an increased risk of death from this latest variant if one has received the experimental COVID-19 gene therapy vaccines warrant follow-up.

Dr. Martin Dubravec – May 27, 2021 – An Update Regarding the Coronavirus Epidemic

 An Update Regarding the Coronavirus Epidemic

Dr. Martin Dubravec
May 27, 2021
 
This information is being provided for patients and others interested in updates regarding the Coronavirus (COVID-19, Sars-CoV-2) epidemic.  Facts are provided.  My comments and opinions are listed separately.  The goals of these updates have been to help the community in keeping informed of the epidemic from a local medical perspective.  As a clinical immunologist, I believe it is vital that information be shared with regard to this important issue.  If you would like to receive this information via Email, feel free to Email us at aasc1234@protonmail.com .  Please note we have transitioning to a new Email address as listed here.  (Our old Email address was aasc1234@hotmail.com .)
 
 
Fact:
 
Positive COVID-19 tests have decreased nationwide by over 93%.  Patients in the hospital in our area of Michigan with positive COVID-19 tests have decreased by 70% from March/April 2021.
 
 
Comment/Opinion:
 
Continued low numbers of positive COVID-19 test results, many of which can be considered false positive tests not reflective of true COVID-19 infection, continues the trend we have seen since the second half of April 2021.  This lends further data to the notion the COVID-19 epidemic is over.
 
Fact:
 
The CDC has announced it is investigating possible heart disease (myocarditis) with the most recent gene therapy vaccines.  Although the CDC states the risk of myocarditis is not significant with these vaccines, the following was noted with regard to the vaccines and heart disease:
 
 
  • predominantly in adolescents and young adults,
  • more often in males than females,
  • more often following dose 2 than dose 1, and
  • typically within 4 days after vaccination.
The state of Connecticut has announced that 18 cases of myocarditis in teenagers have been reported to the state department of health in association with administration of the experimental gene therapy vaccines.
 
Sources:  
 
Comment/Opinion:
Myocarditis is defined as inflammation of the heart muscle.  It is extremely rare.  It almost never happens in children and young adults. 
The announcement by the CDC is very puzzling.  It states that “Within CDC safety monitoring systems, rates of myocarditis reports in the window following COVID-19 vaccination have not differed from expected baseline rates.”  This seems absurd; what is the baseline rate of myocarditis from COVID vaccines?  There is none.  These are newly designed gene therapies that have not been tested in children (except for some short term testing which included monitoring children for 1 week after their vaccinations!) before being given to the  American population.  The Moderna experimental COVID-19 vaccine underwent a total of NO animal studies before it received Emergency Use Authorization.  The baseline is being discovered now.  Vaccinating children makes them the experiment.
As stated many times, there is no need to rush into vaccination with these experimental gene therapy vaccines until appropriate research has been completed.  This is especially prudent given the continued statistical data showing the COVID-19 epidemic is over.  As stated by Dr. Ryan Cole, an expert in lab-associated medicine, “We’ve seen more deaths from this shot (experimental gene therapy COVID-19 vaccines) than all vaccines in the last 20 years combined – and that’s just in the first 4 to 5 months (of vaccine administration).”
 
Fact:
Dr. Anthony Fauci recently admitted that a little more than 50 to 60% of NIH employees had received the experimental gene therapy COVID-19 vaccines.  Dr. Peter Marks confirmed a similar percentage of employees at the U.S. Food and Drug Administration had been vaccinated.
Comment/Opinion:
Significant numbers of National Institutes for Health and Food and Drug Administration employees have not gotten vaccinated.  Perhaps they are concerned about the safety and efficacy of the vaccines?
 
Fact:
 
A group of doctors has sued in federal court  and requested a Motion for a “Temporary Restraining Order Against Use of COVID Vaccine in Children”.
 
Source:  
 
Comment/Opinion:
 
The use of experimental gene therapy COVID-19 vaccines has been controversial for many reasons.  One of the most important considerations is the unknown long term side effects these vaccines could have.  It is one thing to consider long term side effects if you are advanced in age.  It is another thing if you are young and have a long life expectancy ahead of you, are healthy, and your risk of problems with Coronavirus infection are statistically 0%.  A few important points from the document presented to the court are important to review:
 
  • With regard to people under 16 years of age, “the CDC acknowledges they face 0% risk of mortality from COVID-19 statistically.”
 
  • “In approximately  January  of  2020,  the media  began creating  and circulating news stories that seemed  designed to  generate  panic, regarding  a new and deadly disease that could kill  us all. This was odd given that the estimated fatality rate at the time was between 2-4%.  By contrast, tuberculosis  has a  fatality  rate  of  approximately 10%, the original SARS virus  had a fatality  rate of approximately 9%,  and the  MERS  virus had  a fatality  rate of  approximately 30%  –  all  had similar rates of  spread.   The  actual  COVID-19 statistics  present  a  very different picture than the  one  painted  by  the  media  –  a  fatality rate of  0.2%  globally, which drops  to 0.03%  for persons under  age 70,  which  is  comparable  to  the  yearly  flu.   Further, statistically, the fatality risk is limited to the elderly population.
 
  • “Department of Health and Human Services Data   are now  showing  that  95% of  deaths  classed as  “COVID-19  deaths” involve  an  average of  four  additional comorbidities.  This misattribution of the cause of death undoubtedly stems from the substantial government subsidies paid to incentivize such misreporting of COVID-19 deaths.”
 
  • “Manufacturer inserts furnished  with  the  PCR  test  products  include  disclaimers  stating  that the PCR  tests should  NOT  be  used  to diagnose COVID-19.  This  is consistent  with the warning issued  by  the  Nobel  Prize  winning  inventor of  the PCR test  that such tests  are not appropriate for diagnosing disease.”
 
  • “The  CDC  has  announced it will no  longer compile and report data showing the  total number of vaccinated who subsequently contract COVID-19: “[We are] transitioning to  reporting only patients with COVID-19 vaccine  breakthrough infection that  were hospitalized  or died  to help maximize the quality of the data collected.”  There appears to be an agenda to protect the myths about the vaccine, rather than the public.”
 
  • “It is important to note that the Pfizer and Moderna EUA COVID-19 experimental injections were only shown to reduce symptoms – not block transmission.”

Dr. Martin Dubravec – May 21,2021 – An Update Regarding the Coronavirus Epidemic

NOTE:     This information is being provided for patients and others interested in updates regarding the Coronavirus (COVID-19, Sars-CoV-2) epidemic.  Facts are provided.  My comments and opinions are listed separately.  The goals of these updates have been to help the community in keeping informed of the epidemic from a local medical perspective.  As a clinical immunologist, I believe it is vital that information be shared with regard to this important issue.  If you would like to receive this information via Email, feel free to Email us at aasc1234@protonmail.com .  Please note we have transitioning to a new Email address as listed here.  (Our old Email address was aasc1234@hotmail.com .)

Fact:

Positive COVID-19 tests in the state of Michigan continue to dwindle.  Positive tests in the state have decreased by over 80% from their peak in April.  Nationwide, positive COVID-19 tests have decreased by 90%.  In our area, Munson Medical Center reports a total of 33 patients today in its hospitals who are hospitalized with positive COVID-19 test results.

https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/country/us/

Comment/Opinion:

Is the COVID-19 epidemic over?  If we consider the number of positive test results for COVID-19, which do not represent true infection in many cases (ie, there are high numbers of false positive tests), and we look at the small number of positive tests nationwide, we are seeing a consistent trend that for most of the United States most likely represents an end to the Coronavirus epidemic.  We are still seeing cases of COVID-19 in our area (positive test results with symptoms consistent with COVID-19), but even these cases have significantly decreased since last month.  The development of herd immunity seems to have finally taken a decisive hold in the United States.

Nonetheless, it will be necessary to continue to be vigilant for outbreaks.  Depending on future mutations, no one can predict whether or not there will be a rise in new COVID-19 cases in the future.  The good news is that this is unlikely, as other Coronaviruses have been with us for years without significant numbers of deaths in the American population as the population develops herd immunity to the viruses.  The big unknown is that, since this virus was heavily manipulated in a laboratory (Wuhan Virology Center), essentially making it a “synthetic” virus, the potential exists that this virus may behave differently than other Coronaviruses.  So far, however, it seems to be taking a predicable course in that it is becoming less lethal, more contagious (before herd immunity set in), and is rapidly decreasing in incidence.

The drumbeat of COVID-19 continues, however, with many news media outlets continuing to bludgeon the American population with a daily barrage of COVID, COVID, COVID.  From continued news reports, often with misinformation or the censorship of information contrary to a certain narrative, to public service announcements constantly pummeling us with the need to receive experimental gene therapy vaccinations, the negativity can be overwhelming.  The FDA states that “The recipient or their caregiver has the option to accept or refuse” these vaccines.

It is at times breathtaking to see the lack of knowledge regarding these experimental gene therapy vaccinations by those who actively promote their use.  Many people have received these experimental gene therapy vaccinations with little or no background information with regard to their safety or effectiveness.  Before receiving ANY vaccine, patients should be apprised of the benefits vs. the harm of vaccination.

Fact:

COVID-19 related restrictions placed on businesses and Michigan residents by governmental agencies are being discontinued.

 Source:  ‘A really good day for business’ as Michigan acts to lift COVID limits | Bridge Michigan

Comment/Opinion:

After over 15 months of limitations and restrictions, it seems as if there may be light at the end of a long tunnel.  Many governmental restrictions have not been based on science.  Their removal is also not based on science.  It is clear that COVID19 cases have decreased dramatically, but this has only occurred in our area over the past 4 weeks.  Nationwide and in Michigan, the development of herd immunity is the reason we are seeing such a decline in cases.  However, if there has been so much success with public health measures (mask mandates, lockdowns, social distancing, etc.), then why the rush to end these if they are so protective?

Perhaps the science showing time and time again that these measures have no impact on COVID-19 is beginning to take hold.  Maybe people are getting fatigue over the constant pounding of COVID-19 news and are tuning out, thereby causing a loss in the effectiveness of fearmongering.  After all, if the overall survival rate of COVID-19 is over 99%, why is there so much fear?  Another possible explanation – could it be that people have less fear if they are vaccinated (despite the science showing that vaccination will have no significant impact on the trajectory of the virus)?  Could it be that elections are coming up next year and politicians are concerned about getting re-elected?  Could it be that God is merciful after so many have dealt with misery (interpersonal isolation, loss of business and jobs, closure of churches), death and complications from the virus (including a lack of early treatment, increase in suicides and cancer due to lack of access to medical care)?

As Memorial Day approaches in a little over a week, it is time that Americans reflect on what has happened, both good and bad, in our individual and collective responses to this virus.  May we not repeat mistakes we made, and may we take any good that we have been able to gather from this unfortunate time in American history and capitalize on it.  The virus will always be with us.  May those who fear it get over that fear.  May those who have been victims of the virus (directly or indirectly) be comforted by us and each other; and may those who get sick with COVID-19 in the future know they can be treated and cared for with aggressive early treatment.

 An Update Regarding the Coronavirus Epidemic

Dr. Martin Dubravec

May 7, 2021

 This information is being provided for patients and others interested in updates regarding the Coronavirus (COVID-19, Sars-CoV-2) epidemic.  Facts are provided.  My comments and opinions are listed separately.  The goals of these updates have been to help the community in keeping informed of the epidemic from a local medical perspective.  As a clinical immunologist, I believe it is vital that information be shared with regard to this important issue.  If you would like to receive this information via Email, feel free to Email us at aasc1234@protonmail.com .  Please note we have transitioning to a new Email address as listed here.  (Our old Email address was aasc1234@hotmail.com .)

 

Fact:

 Between April 5 and May 4, we have seen a 71% drop in positive COVID-19 PCR test results in Michigan.  Nationwide, COVID-19 positive PCR tests remain at a low but steady level.

 Source:  https://www.michigan.gov/coronavirus/0,9753,7-406-98163_98173—,00.html

https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/country/us/

 

Comment/Opinion:

 Our office has seen a sharp decline in patients with COVID-19 symptoms and positive COVID-19 PCR tests over the past 2 weeks.  This is consistent with statewide data that shows a sharp decline in COVID-19 cases.  Local hospitals continue to see patients with COVID-19 positive tests, however.  This can be expected to decline as hospitalizations lag behind positive COVID-19 test rates by 7-10 days.

 

Fact:

 Concerns have been raised regarding the safety of the experimental gene therapy COVID-19 vaccines in pregnancy.  A recent article suggests no significant problems with these experimental gene therapy COVID-19 vaccines in pregnancy.  Further analysis of the article reveals the opposite.

 Source:  https://www.nejm.org/doi/full/10.1056/NEJMoa2104983?query=featured_coronavirus

 Comment/Opinion:

 The safety of experimental gene therapy COVID-19 vaccines in pregnancy is of major concern.  The above article suggests these vaccines are safe.  However, on closer inspection of the data, we see that the rates of reactions to the vaccines are very possibly much higher.  For example, the article uses Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS) data to show a low amount of reported reactivity to the experimental gene therapy COVID-19 vaccines.  But it has been shown that VAERS data only represents about 1% of the total amount of reactions to vaccines.  This is because the VAERS system is voluntary and most reactions are not documented by health care providers due to a lack of time or interest.  The authors of the study also admit that “there is probably substantial underreporting of pregnancy- and neonatal-specific adverse events.”  Therefore, the rates of reaction to these experimental gene therapy COVID-19 vaccines may be very high. 

 Because of these concerns, many practitioners are recommending against the use of experimental gene therapy COVID-19 vaccines in pregnancy.  Our office will continue to closely monitor reactions to these experimental gene therapy COVID-19 vaccines.

 

Fact:

 The Association of American Physicians and Surgeons has released a statement demanding a stop to forced vaccination of college students:

 Open Letter from Physicians to Universities: Allow Students Back Without COVID Vaccine Mandate

 Dear Deans, Governing Boards and Trustees,

On behalf of the Association of American Physicians and Surgeons, I am writing to ask you to reconsider your new policy mandating COVID-19 vaccination of students prior to returning to campus.[i] Institutions of higher learning are divided on this issue.[ii] ,[iii] Although, at first glance, the policy may seem prudent, it coerces students into bearing unneeded and unknown risk and is at heart contrary to the bedrock medical principle of informed consent.

There are multiple reasons to reverse your policy. I ask you to consider the following:

  1. Young adults are a healthy and immunologically competent and vibrant group that is at, “extraordinary low risk for COVID-19 morbidity and mortality.”[iv]
  2. College and University students, however, are under significant mental health strain already from COVID-19 fears, circumstances, distance learning problems and the imposition of government health policy restrictions.[v]
  3. Even though the FDA granted Emergency Use Authorization (EUA) for three COVID-19 vaccines, they are not FDA approved to treat, cure or prevent any disease at this time.  Clinical trials will continue for at least two years before the FDA can even consider approval of these vaccines as effective and safe.
  4. The COVID-19 vaccines on the market in the U.S., mRNA (Moderna and Pfizer) and DNA (Johnson & Johnson – Janssen), have caused notable side effects, pathology and even death (>2300 deaths per VAERS as of  April 20, 2021). These adverse reactions result in absence from school and work, hospital visits, and even loss of life.[vi]
  5. College-age women may be at unique risk for adverse events following administration of the experimental COVID vaccinations currently available. According to the CDC, all cases of life-threatening blood clots, subsequent to receiving the J&J vaccine, reported so far in the United States, occurred in younger women.[vii]  The vast majority of cases of anaphylaxis have also occurred in women.[viii] In addition, “women are reporting having irregular menstrual cycles after getting the coronavirus vaccine,”[ix] and 95 miscarriages have been reported to the U.S. Vaccine Adverse Effects Reporting System (VAERS) following COVID vaccination as of April 24, 2021.[x]
  6. Recent research data demonstrates that the spike protein, present on the SARS-CoV-2 virus and the induced primary mechanism of action of COVID-19 vaccines, are the primary cause of disease, infirmity, hospitalization and death.[xi]
  7. Students who have had self-limited cases of COVID-19 already possess antibodies, activated B-cells, activated T-cells (detectable by lab testing).  This durable, long-term immunity would not only prevent them from getting recurrent COVID-19, but would also represent herd immunity to protect others in the college or university community.[xii],[xiii]
  8. COVID-19 convalescent students may be harmed by college and university policy requiring COVID-19 vaccines.[xiv] They already have extensive immunity and would be likely harmed from a forced confrontation with COVID-19 vaccine induced spike protein causing autoimmune reactions leading to illness and possible death.[xv]
  9. Students and their families may justifiably believe these policies discriminate against individuals who aren’t candidates for this vaccine, have pre-existing conditions, previous COVID-19 disease, cite religious objections, or are otherwise exercising their freewill choosing not to participate in this optional vaccine experiment. Refer to the Nuremberg code from WWII, which requires individuals, “to be able to exercise free power of choice, without the intervention of any element of force….”[xvi]
  10. Institutional policies that permit faculty to choose or refuse vaccination, but do not allow students the same options, raise equal protection constitutional issues.
  11. The ADA, Americans with Disabilities Act, requires “reasonable accommodations,” be provided based on an individual’s own unique health situation.  This includes rejection of an experimental vaccine intervention which may exacerbate known health problems and thereby cause harm.
  12. Colleges and Universities should consider whether they might be liable for damages, poor health outcomes, and loss of life due to mandatory COVID-19 vaccination policies.[xvii]
  13. “Positive cases,” as defined by laboratory testing alone, may be false positive testing errors or asymptomatic infection that is not clinically proven to spread disease.
  14. Ambulatory outpatient early treatment for SARS-CoV-2 infection / COVID-19 has been demonstrated effective in adults.[xviii]
  15. Informed consent is the standard for all medical interventions. The FDA factsheet for the healthcare provider reads, “The recipient or their caregiver has the option to accept or refuse (Pfizer-BioNTech) vaccine.”

Please reverse your decision to mandate experimental COVID-19 vaccines before more students are harmed and make the vaccines rightfully optional. Both unvaccinated and vaccinated students should be permitted on campus. Thank you for your time and attention. We would appreciate hearing back from you as soon as possible and welcome further discussion with you and other leaders at your institution.

Sincerely,

Paul M. Kempen, M.D., Ph.D. – AAPS President (2021)

Comment/Opinion:

 A one size fits all approach to vaccination is not scientific or rational.  No two patients are alike.  Decisions to receive vaccination should be the choice of the patient.  Certain medications and therapies are not indicated or safe in certain patients; vaccines are no exception to this.   

 The currently available experimental gene therapy vaccines are allowed for emergency use but have not been shown by the FDA to be safe or effective.  This does not mean they may not end up being safe and effective, but preliminary data has shown that these vaccines can produce severe side effects.  They have not been studied in pregnant patients prior to being launched.  They were not studied in those over 55 years of age or those who have had COVID-19.  The safety of these vaccines has not been looked at in children or in pregnant patients prior to being massively pushed on the American population.

 College students have virtually no risk of death from COVID-19.  Furthermore, herd immunity can be best established when those with little to no risk of severe illness from COVID-19 actually get exposed to the virus.  People who have COVID-19 have been naturally vaccinated; they don’t need a vaccine (at least for 6-12 months) to protect them from illness.  What is concerning is that these individuals may be at significantly increased risk of bad reactions to the vaccine if they have already had COVID-19 and then receive an experimental gene therapy COVID-19 vaccine.

 Not surprisingly, our office has seen a marked increase in vaccine reactions to the experimental gene therapy vaccines for COVID-19.  Since these vaccines did not undergo research and analysis of any significant extent prior to being mass produced and administered to millions of people, the results of this are being seen.  (The Moderna vaccine did not even undergo any animal trials prior to being approved in humans.)  Because the overall survival rate of COVID-19 in the American population is over 99%, there is no need to rush into vaccination.

An Update Regarding the Coronavirus Epidemic Dr. Martin Dubravec April 23, 2021

An Update Regarding the Coronavirus Epidemic

Dr. Martin Dubravec

April 23, 2021

 This information is being provided for patients and others interested in updates regarding the Coronavirus (COVID-19, Sars-CoV-2) epidemic.  Facts are provided.  My comments and opinions are listed separately.  The goals of these updates have been to help the community in keeping informed of the epidemic from a local medical perspective.  As a clinical immunologist, I believe it is vital that information be shared with regard to this important issue.  If you would like to receive this information via Email, feel free to Email us at aasc1234@protonmail.com . 

 Fact:

 After a peak in January 2021, nationwide cases of people with a positive COVID-19 PCR test have decreased by approximately 70%.  In Michigan, a peak in cases over the past two months occurred on April 5.  A rise in hospitalizations then followed.  Local hospitals have reported record numbers of positive COVID-19 patients.  In our office, we have seen a decline in patients reporting COVID-19 symptoms.  This mirrors statewide data over the past week.

 Comment/Opinion:

 There is good news regarding COVID-19 on a nationwide basis.  We are also possibly beginning to see a decline in cases locally.  We had a peak in activity in early March, then a decline for a short period of time, only for it to increase again earlier this month.  Hopefully, this is the beginning of a sustained decrease in patients with active COVID-19.

 No one can predict with certainty what will happen with this virus in the future.  As more people become exposed to the virus, we can hope and expect that herd immunity will continue to cause cases to decrease as people become naturally immune to the disease.

There are many who hope that the new experimental gene therapy vaccines will speed up herd immunity.  Preliminary data has not yet borne this out.

Early treatment remains the key to addressing this virus.  Patients with COVID-19 symptoms (flu-like symptoms) should seek treatment as soon as possible (within 3 days), as the earlier one is treated, the greater the likelihood that treatment will work.  No treatment is 100% effective for all patients, but data regarding early treatment (hydroxychloroquine or Ivermectin) shows an 80-85% success rate in preventing hospitalization from COVID-19.


Fact:

 Data regarding the effectiveness of currently available experimental gene therapy vaccines is lacking.  The safety of these vaccines is also not known.  Preliminary data is beginning to come in regarding the safety and effectiveness of these therapies which have received conditional use approval from the US government.

Comment/Opinion:

 The currently available COVID-19 vaccines (conditional use, emergency use authorization experimental gene therapy vaccines) have been in use with no significant data to show their effectiveness or safety.  As an example, people with prior COVID-19 infection were excluded from the very limited human trials conducted by Pfizer and Moderna in the run up to the vaccines being given to millions of Americans.  The Moderna vaccine underwent no animal trials prior to being approved for human use.  Data stating that these vaccines are “95% effective” are at best misleading:  the “effectiveness” of any vaccine is not measured at 6 or 8 weeks after vaccination.  It can only be measured at years after vaccination.  All of the currently available COVID-19 experimental gene therapy vaccines should be considered to carry the risk of producing blood clots, as they have been reported in all of the vaccines. 

Our office has seen numerous vaccine reactions to the currently available COVID-19 vaccines.  Although this is not settled science but only an observation of one clinic that treats these patients, it is nonetheless remarkable that we have had so many reports of adverse reactions to these vaccines.  Life-threatening reactions and deaths from these experimental vaccines are rare when compared to the number of people who have received the vaccines.  However, the same statistics are present when looking at the number of people who have died from COVID-19 compared to the number of people who have had the illness.  The risk of death from COVID in Americans is less than 0.03%.  The overall survival rate of COVID-19 is 99.98%.

We have also received reports of businesses where numerous employees are sick with COVID-19 even though they have been vaccinated.  In one location, no less than five employees, vaccinated in January 2021, have recently been infected with COVID-19.

 It has been this office’s recommendation that no one under the age of 70 should receive the currently available experimental gene therapy COVID-19 vaccines pending further data showing their safety.  In those over the age of 70, it is also questionable whether the risk of vaccination is worth it in an otherwise healthy person.  It is my hope that these vaccines will be shown to be safe and effective. No one should be coerced or pressured to receive or not receive any vaccination.

 It is my recommendation that any patients who decide to be vaccinated should first be tested for COVID-19 IgG antibodies.  If they have antibodies, they should seriously reconsider their decision for vaccination as they carry an increased risk of severe reactivity to the vaccine. 

 Patients at risk for severe illness to COVID-19 can consider preventative therapy with either hydroxychloroquine or Ivermectin taken weekly or every two weeks.  Data shows that these medications can prevent COVID-19 infection in many, but not all, patients.  These medications carry a track record of safety that far exceeds that of the currently available vaccines for COVID-19.

 Is there a safe alternative?  Sanofi is currently working on a protein-based vaccine that may be safe for use as it uses longstanding technology that has been utilized for years in other vaccines.  ( )  It is not gene therapy.  This office will continue to monitor this situation closely.
