What Dr Mercola Thinks About the Statistics
Government Scrubs Stats on Vaccine-Related Deaths
(Analysis by Dr. Joseph Mercola Fact Checked)
STORY AT-A-GLANCE
- According
to Dr. Peter McCullough, early treatment could have prevented up to 85%
of COVID-19 deaths. Early at-home treatment also minimizes the spread,
as the amount of time you’re infectious can be reduced from two weeks to
about four days
- Despite
being inexpensive and readily available, early treatments have all been
censored and suppressed in order to secure a global mass vaccination
campaign
- More
than 80 colleges and any number of employers are now implementing
mandatory COVID vaccination. The only way for them to understand what
the implications of that decision might be is to review the VAERS data.
They’re not going to get any clues elsewhere, thanks to the universal
suppression of information
- An
estimated 124 million Americans are now fully vaccinated against
COVID-19. As of April 30, 2021, 3,837 died shortly after their COVID
shots. That’s more than have died from all available vaccines combined
from mid-1997 until the end of 2013 — a period of 15.5 years
- In
1976, the U.S. government vaccinated 45 million people against pandemic
swine flu. The entire program was canceled after reports of just 53
deaths
According
to Dr. Peter McCullough, vice chief of internal medicine at Baylor
University Medical Center and known for being one of the top five
most-published medical researchers in the United States, COVID-19
vaccines are killing “huge numbers” of people and the government is
simply ignoring it.
In a video interview with investigative journalist and founder of
Liberty Sentinel, Alex Newman, McCullough says the U.S. government, the
Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation and health agencies around the world
have all committed to vaccinating the global population while sitting
on data showing the COVID-19 “vaccines” are turning out to be the most
lethal vaccines ever created.
Safe Treatments Suppressed in Favor of Dangerous ‘Vaccines’
McCullough, who also has a master’s degree in public health, has
provided testimony in three different Senate hearings, sharing the
treatments he used to help patients recover from COVID-19 and avoid
hospitalization. He summarizes his protocol in the interview.
These strategies are also detailed in “Pathophysiological Basis and
Rationale for Early Outpatient Treatment of SARS-CoV-2 Infection,”
published in the January 2021 issue of the American Journal of Medicine.
He was also a consulting editor of “A Guide to Home-Based COVID
Treatment.”
During a recent Texas state Senate Health and Human Services Committee
hearing, McCullough noted that, according to available data, early
treatment could have prevented up to 85% of COVID-19 deaths. Early
at-home treatment also minimizes the spread, as the amount of time
you’re infectious can be reduced from two weeks to about four days.
Yet, despite being inexpensive and readily available, early treatments
have all been censored and suppressed, apparently in order to secure
this global mass vaccination campaign. In fact, as McCullough notes,
there’s been no clarified guidance on COVID treatment at all, not even
hospital protocols.
The entire focus of our health agencies has been on masking, lockdowns and waiting for a gene therapy “vaccine.” The results have been devastating. Five months into the mass vaccination campaign,
more than 10,000 in the U.S. and European Union have already died after
getting the shots. Any other vaccine would have been pulled from the
market by now.
Shocking Stats Show Just How Dangerous COVID ‘Vaccines’ Are
For example, in 1976, the U.S. government vaccinated 45 million people
against pandemic swine flu. The entire program was canceled after
reports of just 53 deaths, according to Fox News. Note: The number of
deaths reported after the 1976 inoculation program varies from three to
53, depending on the source.
Now, health authorities are shrugging off more than 3,800 deaths after
COVID-19 vaccination as either coincidental or inconsequential. Think
about that. Five months into the COVID-19 vaccination campaign, we’re
looking at a death toll that is 7,000% greater than during the swine flu vaccination campaign, which was canceled after the vaccine was deemed too risky.
The COVID-19 “vaccine” is also on a level of magnitude more dangerous
than the seasonal flu vaccine. As reported by McCullough, on average,
there are 20 to 30 deaths reported following the seasonal flu vaccine,
which is given to about 195 million Americans each year.
Compare that to these novel COVID-19 gene therapies. So far, an
estimated 124 million Americans are fully vaccinated against COVID-19
and the death count is already at 3,837, as of April 30, 2021.
Worse, it appears the vaccine adverse event reporting system (VAERS) is
backlogged by about three months, so this is likely to be a serious
undercount. Even if VAERS was fully caught up, it would be an
undercount, as only 1% to 10% of adverse events after vaccination are
ever reported. So, in reality, we might be looking at anywhere from
38,370 to 383,700 COVID vaccine-related deaths.
A third comparison can be made against vaccines as a whole. As reported
by Tucker Carlson, May 6, 2021, the COVID-19 shots have already resulted
in more deaths than all available vaccines combined from mid-1997 until
the end of 2013 — a period of 15.5 years.
No Other Vaccine Has Harmed This Many
In a recent report, the Israeli People Committee (IPC), a civilian body
of health experts, similarly concluded that “there has never been a
vaccine that has harmed as many people.” The Committee received 288
reports of death following COVID-19 vaccination, 90% of which occurred
within 10 days. According to this report (translated from Hebrew):
“According to Central Bureau of Statistics data during
January-February 2021, at the peak of the Israeli mass vaccination
campaign, there was a 22% increase in overall mortality in Israel
compared with the previous year.
In fact, January-February 2021 have been the deadliest months in the
last decade, with the highest overall mortality rates compared to
corresponding months in the last 10 years.
Amongst the 20-29 age group the increase in overall mortality has
been most dramatic. In this age group, we detect an increase of 32% in
overall mortality in comparison with previous year.
Statistical analysis of information from the Central Bureau of
Statistics, combined with information from the Ministry of Health, leads
to the conclusion that the mortality rate amongst the vaccinated is
estimated at about 1: 5000 (1: 13000 at ages 20-49, 1: 6000 at ages
50-69, 1: 1600 at ages 70+).
According to this estimate, it is possible to estimate the number of
deaths in Israel in proximity of the vaccine, as of today, at about
1000-1100 people.”
CDC Denies Lethal Risks
The contrast in the government’s response to COVID-19 vaccine deaths
compared to the 1976 swine flu pandemic vaccination campaign is
“alarming,” McCullough says.
February 19, 2021, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention
issued a statement saying there were “no safety problems” with Pfizer’s
and Moderna’s mRNA injections.17 Of the 113 deaths reported at that time, none was deemed to be related to the vaccines.
Then, in May 2021, after reviewing 1,600 deaths reported to VAERS with
an unnamed group of U.S. Food and Drug Administration doctors, the CDC
declared that none of the deaths was related to the vaccine — this
despite 24% of deaths have occurred within 48 hours of injection, and
16% within 24 hours. The problem is that it would take several months to
investigate that many deaths, so the likelihood that this was a
thorough investigation is slim to none.
“It is impossible for unnamed regulatory doctors without any
experience with COVID-19 to opine that none of the deaths were related
to the vaccine,” McCullough tells Newman.
“So, I think this was effectively a scrubbing, like we’ve seen
elsewhere … We’re sitting on, right now, the biggest number of vaccine
deaths [and] there’s been tens of thousands of hospitalizations, all
attributable to the vaccine, and [we’re still] going strong.”
The reason you’re not hearing any negative news about these “vaccines”
is because major media networks and stakeholders in COVID-19 vaccines
have formed a “trusted news credibility coalition” that seeks to prevent
any negative information about COVID vaccines to get into the popular
media “because they’re concerned about vaccine hesitancy,” McCullough
says.
Suppression of Concerning VAERS Data Underway
As of April 30, 2021, 3,837 people have died, and 16,014 people have
reported serious injuries and disabilities following COVID-19
injections. Among these deaths were two 15-year-olds and one
16-year-old. There were also 235 reports or miscarriage or premature
birth as of April 30, 2021.

So-called fact checkers are of course working overtime to quell rumors
about the trends showing in the VAERS data.
A recent fact-check article by The Post and Courier quotes unnamed,
obscure experts stating that dying from the COVID-19 vaccine “isn’t an
outcome people should worry about,” and that “despite misinformation
shared on social media that sources a federal vaccines safety database” —
meaning the VAERS database — “there is no proof of any patients having
died as a result of taking a COVID-19 vaccine in the United States.”
More than 80 colleges and any number of employers are now implementing
mandatory COVID vaccination, and the only way for them to understand
what the implications of that decision might be is to review the VAERS
data. They’re not going to get any clues elsewhere, thanks to the
universal suppression of information.
PolitiFact also recently blew off VAERS as a “breeding ground for misinformation.”22 It
warned social media posts reporting VAERS data are not to be trusted,
as VAERS “reports are not verified” and “are not enough to determine
whether a vaccine causes a particular adverse event.”
While both of those statements are true, PolitiFact fails to address the
glaring problem that both the CDC and the FDA, which run VAERS jointly,
are ignoring clearly emerging trends of harm. The Defender contacted
the CDC March 8, 2021, with a list of questions about the vaccine injury
reports, and as of May 11 — 64 days later — had received no reply.
“[VAERS] is the only place where America, policy makers and others, are
going to get a fair shake in understanding safety,” McCullough says. He
points out that more than 80 colleges and any number of employers are
now implementing mandatory COVID vaccination, and the
only way for them to understand what the implications of that decision
might be is to review the VAERS data. They’re not going to get any clues
elsewhere, thanks to the universal suppression of information.
Overall, it appears the entire mission of VAERS and other such databases
is being tossed aside. The system’s primary goal is to “detect new,
unusual or rare vaccine adverse events” as a way to monitor the safety
of vaccines.
As noted by McCullough, after five reported deaths where a medical
product is suspected of being involved, the FDA will issue a black box
warning — a notice to consumers warning them that the drug might cause
death. At around 50 suspicious deaths, the product is pulled off the
market.
The system is clearly failing if every single report of serious injury
or death, including all the ones occurring within hours and in people
with no underlying health problems, are simply written off as
coincidence. It’s simply not believable.
EU Reports More Than 7,700 Deaths
Signs of lethal risks are also evident in data from the European Union,
where the EudraVigilance system had received 7,766 reports of death
after COVID vaccination as of April 17, 2021.
Of these, Pfizer’s mRNA injection accounted for the largest number of
deaths at 4,293, followed by Moderna with 2,094 deaths, AstraZeneca with
1,360 deaths and Johnson & Johnson with 19 deaths. As noted by
McCullough:
“In my professional opinion, the safest vaccine on the market was
the J&J vaccine, and that was pulled for very rare blood-clotting
events. We had 7 million people vaccinated but the estimates are for the
other two vaccines available [Pfizer and Moderna], the blood-clotting
rates are probably 30 times that of J&J, and these others are going
strong.”
Active Vaccine Surveillance Is Months Away
The FDA has also admitted that its analysis of vaccine safety data will
be delayed for weeks, if not months. Right as the pandemic hit, they
were in the process of transitioning from its Post-Licensure Rapid
Immunization Safety Monitoring (PRISM) network, which was used to track side effects from the pandemic H1N1 vaccine, into a new system called the Biologics Effectiveness and Safety System (BEST).
In the meantime, they’re relying on a patchwork of passive reporting
systems, including VAERS, the Vaccine Safety Datalink and a phone-based
self-reporting system called v-safe.
Since all of these are based on voluntary self-reporting, they can miss
potentially lethal and unanticipated reactions. By the end of March
2021, only 6.4% of all vaccinated individuals had enrolled in v-safe,
for example,25 which means a vast majority aren’t being surveilled for side effects.
While BEST will be an active surveillance system capable of examining
data from 100 million people and actually compare rates of adverse
events between vaccinated and unvaccinated individuals to detect trends,
we are months away from this kind of analysis.
In the meantime, people continue to die, and for no good reason,
considering the lethality of COVID-19 is on par with seasonal influenza
for most age groups.
Signs of Malfeasance Abound
At this point, the list of evidences of malfeasance is exceedingly long.
For a rundown of several key issues, see the peer-reviewed paper
“COVID-19: Restoring Public Trust During a Global Health Crisis — An
Evidence-Based Position Paper to Ensure Ethical Conduct.”
In it, the author substantiates McCullough’s allegations of rampant,
wanton misconduct among public health officials, the active suppression
of safe and effective treatments, and pandemic measures being
implemented based on incorrect assumptions and outright lies.
As noted by McCullough in the featured interview, advertisements for
COVID-19 vaccines were launched in violation of law before FDA licensing
was complete. The initial studies had not even been completed. To this
day, none of the COVID-19 “vaccines” has been licensed.
They only have emergency use authorization (EUA), and there’s no
possible way for anyone to assure their safety. All of these facts are
why they’re completely optional, and legally cannot yet be made
mandatory, even though many schools and businesses are attempting to do
that.
McCullough also stresses that in the COVID-19 vaccine trials, both the
vaccinated groups and control groups had a less than 1% infection rate,
which is about as low as it gets, in terms of risk. What this means is
the overall public health impact of COVID-19 vaccination is also bound
to be less than 1% — in other words, meaningless.
He also points out that around the world, we’re now seeing about 60% of
active COVID-19 cases being in fully vaccinated individuals. In
McCullough’s own practice, the COVID-19 patients he saw in the two weeks
before this interview, about 60% were fully vaccinated, and there’s no
difference in disease presentation between vaccinated and unvaccinated
individuals.
Death Tally May Spike During Fall and Winter
While the death toll from COVID-19 vaccines is already at a historical
level, I fear it may shoot far higher as we move through fall and
winter. The reason for this is because one of the greatest wild cards of
these vaccines is antibody‐dependent enhancement (ADE) or paradoxical
immune enhancement (PIE).
I’ve detailed this issue in several articles, including “How COVID-19 Vaccine Can Destroy Your Immune System” and “Will Vaccinated People Be More Vulnerable to Variants?”
In summary, ADE means that rather than enhance your immunity against
the infection, the vaccine actually enhances the virus’ ability to enter
and infect your cells, resulting in more severe disease than had you
not been vaccinated.
Fall and winter are the seasons in which most coronavirus infections
occur, be it SARS-CoV-2 or other coronaviruses responsible for the
common cold. If ADE does turn out to be a common problem with these
injections, then vaccinated individuals may in fact turn out to be at
significantly higher risk of severe COVID-19 and a potentially lethal
immune reaction due to pathogenic priming.
Another potential risk is that of Th2 immunopathology, a form of
cell-based enhancement in which a faulty T cell response triggers
allergic inflammation. This condition may in some cases overlap with
ADE, and can, like ADE, be life-threatening.
In my view, there are still so many potential avenues of harm and so
many uncertainties, I would encourage everyone to do your homework, keep
reading and learning, weigh the potential pros and cons, ignore all
pressure tactics and take your time when deciding whether to get any of
these COVID-19 gene therapies.
If you or someone you love has already received a COVID-19 vaccine and
are experiencing side effects, be sure to report it, preferably to all
three of these locations:
