Redistricting update and more, from Ottawa Impact – 10/21/21

From Joe Moss, Founder of OttawaImpact.com

The generous people of Ottawa County have helped the Legal Fund raise $52,195 to support the parents who filed a legal complaint against the Ottawa County Commissioners and Health Department. Thank you!! (This is 52% of our goal.) We will share more updates as they are available.

Please share this update with your family and friends, and let them know how the Ottawa County leadership views the mask mandate as harmless:

Harmless Mask Mandate?

Your friends and family can stay up-to-date on local issues by becoming a member of Ottawa Impact.

Government overreach must be challenged. Ottawa County needs new leaders, for new times, for liberty!

​

Redistricting Action Item

We have one final opportunity to make an impact on the state level with the “independent” redistricting commission. The redistricting commission is tasked with drawing new lines every 10 years.
This is an important issue because several of the maps divide Ottawa County into three federal congressional districts for no logical reason. This would negatively impact our representation in Washington D.C. by splitting up Ottawa County. The commission does not have anyone from West Michigan on it, so please let them hear your voices.

This Friday, the commission will be holding a public comment meeting in Grand Rapids at the DeVos Place (in the Steelcase Ballroom). The meetings are 1:00 PM to 3:30 PM, and 5:00 PM to 8:00 PM.

Four ways to make an impact:

1. Write a quick comment to support map 201. This map keeps Ottawa County together and does not try to lump communities like Hudsonville with Grand Rapids. Click here to make a positive comment on this map.

2. Write a quick comment thanking Redistricting Commissioner Lange for listening to us and keeping Ottawa County whole in her map. Click here to map a positive comment on Commissioner Lange’s Map.​

3. Submit a longer written comment in the Michigan portal. Ottawa County should be kept together because of the economic, manufacturing, and agricultural ties that make our community a unique community of interest. Click here to submit a written comment.

4. For the maximum impact, speak in-person or via phone/Zoom tomorrow! From my understanding, those who attend in-person will be able to speak first, then individuals who join via phone/Zoom. Each speaker will have 90 seconds.

Location: DeVos Place in Grand Rapids
​Where: Steelcase Ballroom
​Times: 1:00 PM to 3:30 PM, and 5:00 PM to 8:00 PM
​Sign Up: Online (this is required)

Thank you to those who have already stepped up to help make an impact with redistricting. Together we have mobilized hundreds of people to be involved! Our voice and our community matters. Let’s finish strong and tell the redistricting commission to keep Ottawa County together. This is what Unified Political Action is all about.

New Legislation would repeal state’s pistol registry – A note from Senator Lana Theis

Note:  These bills have not been reviewed by Katherine Henry, but they appear to be a step in the right direction.


“New Legislation would repeal state’s pistol registry..


Bills recently introduced in the state Senate by myself and colleague Sen. Tom Barrett would repeal Michigan’s pistol registry and require law enforcement to destroy all associated records.

Law-abiding Michigan residents have a constitutional right to keep and bear arms. The government has no right or need to know whether a law-abiding adult owns a pistol and legal gun owners should not have to register their firearms with the state. This legislation would help restore our natural rights as citizens of this country by repealing Michigan’s pistol registry and requiring law enforcement to destroy all records thereof.

Senate Bills 646–648 would eliminate the pistol registry from state law. It would also require the state police and sheriffs and heads of police from each county, township, city and village throughout Michigan to destroy, within six months of the bills’ enactment, all records held by or under the control of those departments that were received, compiled, or retained under the pistol registry law.

The legislation would not apply to a record or copy of a record that is being held as evidence in a criminal prosecution or civil proceeding that was initiated and pending before the bills are enacted. However, such records would be required to be destroyed within 30 days after they are no longer being held for such purposes.

Additionally, every police department would be required to produce a report for the Senate and House of Representatives that it has complied with the legislation’s requirements within 30 days of the six-month window to destroy records. Reports must also be produced each year by Jan. 1 verifying the number of records and copies of records retained by or destroyed by a department related to the aforementioned criminal investigations and legal proceedings during that year, until all of those records and copies of records are destroyed.

SBs 646-648 were referred to the Senate Judiciary and Public Safety Committee for consideration.
Theis previously introduced legislation that would make Michigan a constitutional carry state by repealing the current requirement that law-abiding adults obtain a concealed pistol license.”

Ottawa Impact Lawsuit Fundraising Update – 10/18/21

From Joe Moss, Founder of OttawaImpact.com

The Legal Fund has raised $49,955 to support the lawsuit against the Ottawa County Commissioners and Health Department.

The leaders in Ottawa County are committed to keeping our kids masked. They are ignoring the facts that adults who wanted the shots have had time to get them, and the risk to children of hospitalization and/or death is essentially zero, as reported by the county itself. Even the CDC recognizes that:

“Most children with [the virus] have mild symptoms or they may have no symptoms at all.”

If you donate $45 right now, you will help us reach the halfway point of $50,000!

Please keep in mind how the Ottawa County leadership views the mask mandate:

Harmless Mask Mandate?

Update

Government overreach must be challenged. 

Ottawa County needs new leaders for new times, who understand and prioritize the principles of liberty set forth by our Founding Fathers.

Donate Now

This lawsuit is an opportunity for everyone to take action together, which is what Unified Political Action is all about.

Ottawa Impact Lawsuit Update – 10/16/21


From Joe Moss, Founder of
OttawaImpact.com


Ottawa County responded to the lawsuit. You can see their response and other updates on the website.

It all boils down to this: 

  1. Ottawa County leadership is working hard to fight the lawsuit, to keep kids masked in school, prioritizing their interests above the health of our children and parental rights.
  2. Interestingly, Ottawa County issued a new public health order last Friday. It begins by saying:
    1. “The Administrative Health Officer makes the following factual determinations to reconcile the orders considering current facts and law”
  3. Presumably, they issued this “fix-it” order in response to the lawsuit. As you know, the lawsuit challenges that the county failed to make factual determinationsregarding “imminent harm” to support their mask order, and this was how they tried to fix their error.
  4. It is now apparent that Ottawa County has coined a new term, which you will see in their response: “harmless mask mandate.”
  5. 221 people have donated to support the lawsuit. The Ottawa Impact Legal Fund is funding the legal action, so please donate today! The five brave families suing the county need your support.

Concerning Questions

  • Does Ottawa County really think pants, shirts, and shoes are the same as a mask?
  • Did Ottawa County forget that families can choose to OPT OUT of the chicken pox and rubella vaccines, including for medical, philosophical, and religious reasons?

Ottawa County reported on September 29:

  • 2 child hospitalizations in the past 5 months
  • 0 child deaths in the past 19 months

Does this look like “imminent danger” to pre-K through sixth grade students? No!

SCIENCE AND DATA

We will keep you updated as things progress.

Ottawa County needs new leaders for new times.

Update from Ottawa Impact 10/04/21

 Facebook is down, and so are mask mandates in other counties.

Ottawa Impact is online, and since we rely on email to communicate directly with Impacters like yourself, we can still share the latest news.

Ottawa County will not drop the Mask Order for pre-K through 6th grade students.

However, since the governor signed Public Act 87, health departments covering the following counties have removed their mask mandates:

  1. Allegan
  2. Barry
  3. Branch
  4. Berrien
  5. Dickinson
  6. Eaton
  7. Hillsdale
  8. Iron
  9. St. Joseph

Public pressure is a major factor in these decisions. County officials also cited Section 1222 (4) of Public Act 87:

If a local health officer has an emergency order under section 2453 of the public health code, 1978 PA 368, MCL 333.2453, in effect as of October 1, 2021, the funds appropriated in part 1 for essential local public health services are unappropriated.

Section 250 of Public Act 87 states:

The director or a local health officer shall not issue or enforce any orders or other directives that require an individual in this state who is under the age of 18 to wear a face mask or face covering.

During last week’s county commissioner meeting, Corporation Counsel Doug Van Essen said:

“This is Lansing intermurals. It really doesn’t affect us directly, the question is, would we get our check?”

Mr. Van Essen also commented:

“The burden … is on the Legislature. They would have to sue … to compel the un-appropriation of their appropriation to Ottawa County.”

“If we don’t get our check, I’ll let you know, because it’s a blatant violation of our rights.”

We have repeatedly been told that Ottawa County must follow the law. However, in the current situation, is Mr. Van Essen advising Ottawa County not to follow a law passed by the Michigan Legislature and signed by Governor Whitmer? 

If other counties revoked their mask mandates, citing Public Act 87, why isn’t Ottawa County?

Ottawa Impact’s mission is to preserve and protect the individual rights of people in Ottawa County – from any and all violations!

Join Us

We are building an unstoppable movement for FREEDOM in Ottawa County. Our members are passionate about protecting We The People from “blatant violations” of our individual rights. Please join us and make your voice heard!

From Kent County GOP 9/30/21

Yesterday, the MI Independent Citizens Redistricting Commission went rogue by drawing a congressional district draft map that includes the City of Grand Rapids with the City of Kalamazoo. Who has advocated for them to do this? No one! Grand Rapids and Kalamazoo have little in common and should NOT be considered a community of interest. The current maps also split many of the suburban areas of Grand Rapids from the City in a separate congressional district, including Ada, Sparta, Cedar Springs, Rockford, Lowell. Instead, these areas would be drawn in a congressional district all the way to the City of Midland! If you’re from one of these suburbs, you don’t say you’re from Midland, you say you’re from Grand Rapids. Clearly this was drawn to benefit the Democratic Party by packing their voters within one Congressional District. We cannot let this happen!


We need YOUR help to send a message to the Commission to reject this proposed map. Here are four ways you can help: 
 

1. SUBMIT WRITTEN COMMENT: Drop the commission a note in the public portal letting them know you are opposed to the proposed congressional map and why. CLICK HERE to submit a written comment. 

 

2. SUBMIT DRAFTS OF MAPS: Submit your own Congressional District map that keeps Kent County whole. CLICK HERE to submit a map.
 
3. CALL-IN TO ONE OF THE COMMISSION’S MEETINGS: The Commission is meeting every day and is continuing to draw map drafts. We need individuals to attend the meeting virtually by Zoom and speak at the beginning of each meeting during public comment. Contact Kent GOP Political Director Mike Sullivan if you are willing to speak at msullivan@kentgop.org 616-459-0141. 
 
The maps that are drawn by the Commission will be the district lines for the next 10 YEARS! Our party needs to take a stand today to stop this Commission from going rogue. Contact Kent GOP Political Director Mike Sullivan with any questions to concerns msullivan@kentgop.org 616-459-0141.

An Update from Ottawa Impact 09/30/21

 The Michigan Legislature included the following language in the budget that was signed yesterday by the governor:

“The director or a local health officer shall not issue or enforce any orders or other directives that require an individual in this state who is under the age of 18 to wear a face mask or face covering.” (mi.gov)

Question: 
Will Ottawa County disregard the prohibition on mask mandates in Public Act 87 of 2021?
Read Public Act 87 of 2021 on mi.gov

YES, Ottawa County commissioners, on advice from Corporation Counsel Doug Van Essen, confirmed they will disregard the prohibition on forced masking in Public Act 87, risk state funding, and uphold the forced Mask Order on young students.

Reports are circulating that the following counties are lifting their mask orders:

  • Allegan County
  • Berrien County
  • Ionia County

This is why the lawsuit filed against Ottawa County is so important! The rule of law must be followed. The lawsuit challenges the authority Ottawa County claims it has to issue mandates.

1. Join Ottawa Impact!
2. Support the Lawsuit

Ottawa County’s disregard for the Michigan Legislature casts more doubt on whether or not they are concerned with following the rule of law.

They never had the authority to begin with!

It’s important to remember the health department never had the authority.  The school boards, superintendents nor schools have the authority either.

An Update Regarding the Coronavirus September 29, 2021 from Dr. Dubravec

An Update Regarding the Coronavirus 

Dr. Martin Dubravec

September 29, 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 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.

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

https://usafacts.org/visualizations/covid-vaccine-tracker-states/state/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.

Source:  

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.

County Commissioners Meeting Meeting on Sept. 30, 2021 at 1:30 PM – Ottawa County

From OttawaImpact.com

The first Action Item on the Agenda for the upcoming Ottawa County Board of Commissioners meeting this Thursday, September 30, at 1:30 PM includes:

View Post

“Suggested Motion: To approve and authorize the Board Chairperson and Clerk/Register to sign the Resolution Supporting Passage of Legislation to Adopt 4-Year Terms for County Commissioners.”

On July 27, 2021, following two months of repeated requests from citizens to sign the Resolution to Restore Freedom, the commissioners instead approved a proposed “Policy on Resolutions” which prohibits the commissioners from taking up resolutions on issues where it does not have authority.

The length of county commissioners’ terms is NOT an issue over which the Board of Commissioners has statutory authority, but it IS an issue in which they have PERSONAL INTEREST.

What is the recent history of the county commissioners with resolutions? Click here to read more:

Resolutions for Me, Not for Thee

With four-year terms for county commissioners being considered in the Michigan Legislature, it’s becoming more important than ever that Ottawa County has people with courage and conviction elected to serve in these positions.

Divide and Conquer? Ottawa Split Into THREE Congressional Districts… An Update from Ottawa Impact

From Joe Moss, Founder of Ottawa Impact (OttawaImpact.com):

We have big announcements coming soon, so we wanted to get this request out beforehand.

Sometimes we find simple, concrete ways for Impacters to take action, and that is what this email is all about!

The new “Independent Citizens Redistricting Commission” just released maps for West Michigan. They are tasked with drawing new district lines.

  1. They split Ottawa County into THREE Congressional Districts instead of one.
  2. They put Georgetown Township with Kent County!
  3. The current draft dilutes Ottawa’s unified voice. 

If the redistricting commission splits up Ottawa, that will undermine our long-term impact. (Side note, Kent County was not split up…)

Please take a few moments to submit written comments to the commission so they can hear your voice!

Submit Public Comment

You can write something like: 

Title: Ottawa County Belongs Together!

Message: As a resident of Ottawa County, the fastest-growing county in Michigan, I believe we need to keep our community of interest intact. Please do not split up Ottawa into different districts. Please keep our local communities, especially Georgetown Township, within one district for Ottawa County! This makes sense and ensures we can be represented fairly.

This issue touches every person living in Ottawa County, right now and for years to come, so please make your voice heard.

An Update Regarding the Coronavirus September 17, 2021 from Dr. Dubravec

An Update Regarding the Coronavirus 

Dr. Martin Dubravec

September 17, 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:

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.

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.

Ottawa Impact Update from Joe Moss (09/11/21)

From Joe Moss, Founder of Ottawa Impact (OttawaImpact.com)

Ottawa County residents are now BANNED from entering the County building during commissioner meetings UNLESS they are giving public comment (or using the restroom), and even then it’s limited to approximately 50 residents at a time in a waiting room.

Everyone MUST stay outside, according to the rules.

After giving public comment, residents will be EJECTED from the building.

Nothing says “we don’t represent you” like “you can’t come here.”

Are these protocols helpful? Are they consistent with the Open Meetings Act? Is cutting off people from their own local government a good idea?

Please donate to the Ottawa Impact Legal Fund!

You can see the new rules on the Board of Commissioners’ website: https://www.miottawa.org/Departments/BOC/​

In case they delete the rules, you can see a backup copy here.

If you want to attend the next Board of Commissioners meeting, Ottawa Impact PAC announced an event called “Precall & Pizza” on Tuesday. You can learn more on the Ottawa Precall website by clicking here.

Video~ Biden’s Unconstitutional Vaccine Mandate! 091021

You know me, I have a lot of words to say about such an unconstitutional action, but perhaps these few words sum it up best:

#RestoreFreedom #ConstitutionMatters #ItsAlwaysAboutFreedom #PresidentsDontMakeLaws

Tennessee Gov. Bill Lee: “‘This is not about freedom’ is a phrase that should never come out of a U.S. President’s mouth. For a fight that requires working together, a lot of cynical and divisive edicts came out of the White House today pitting the vaccinated against the unvaccinated, businesses against employees, and the federal government against states.”

An Update Regarding the Coronavirus September 2,, 2021 from Dr. Dubravec

An Update Regarding the Coronavirus 

Dr. Martin Dubravec

September 2, 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 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.

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.
