An Eminent Vaccinologist Sounds The Alarm Over Current "Vaccine" Protocols

Those receiving the current "vaccines" are committing delayed-action suicide, and making themselves incubators for more dangerous variants of the virus.

I USED THE EXPRESSION "EMINENT" in the title of this piece, but that doesn't do justice to the credentials of Dr. Geert Vanden Bossche. Vanden Bossche is actually a major science-side mover-and-shaker in the most significant vaccine research and production endeavors around the world, including those responsible for some of the "vaccines" being deployed today. Here is a bio-blurb from another site discussing his presentation:

Geert Vanden Bossche, PhD, DVM, is a vaccine research expert. He has a long list of companies and organizations he’s worked with on vaccine discovery and preclinical research, including GSK, Novartis, Solvay Biologicals, and Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation. Dr Vanden Bossche also coordinated the Ebola vaccine program at GAVI (Global Alliance for Vaccines and Immunization). He is board-certified in Virology and Microbiology, the author of over 30 publications, and inventor of a patent application for universal vaccines. He currently works as an independent vaccine research consultant.

Here is a selection of entries from Vanden Bossche's resume:

  • Managing Director, VARECO

  • Head of the Vaccine, Development Office German Centre for Infection Research (DZIF)

  • Chief Innovation & Scientific Officer, Univac

  • Program Manager, Global Alliance for Vaccines and Immunisation (GAVI)

  • Senior Program Officer, Global Health, Vaccine Discovery, Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation (BMGF)

  • Global Project Director Influenza Vaccines, Solvay Biologicals

  • Director, Research Program Leader and Head of Adjuvants, Novartis Vaccines & Diagnostics

  • Head of Adjuvant Technologies and Alternative Deliveries, R&D, GlaxoSmithKline Biologicals

  • Senior Project Leader ‘Adolescent Vaccine Projects' and New Biotech Vaccine Development and QC-QA Manager, GSK Biologicals

Plainly, Dr. Geert Vanden Bossche is a super-charged authority on the design and function of vaccines. Plainly, Bossche is no "antivaxxer". But Dr. Geert Vanden Bossche is now urgently warning the world to STOP TAKING THE COVID-19 VACCINES.

Each individual receiving the current injections is signing their own death warrant, Bossche has realized. He believes the mass vaccination program is setting the stage for the emergence of a super-virus, as well.

VANDEN BOSSCHE PERSUASIVELY ARGUES that the currently-flogged "vaccines" (which are actually just injections of genetic material meant to mimic one feature of the originally-circulating C19 virus) will have the perverse effect of neutralizing-- by shouldering aside, as it were-- the recipient's natural (and much more robust) immune response to any virus having that feature-- even variants against which the "vaccine"-generated antibodies are only imperfectly effective. That is, the "vaccine"-generated antibodies are able to do little more than slow down the development of a full-blown infection from an invading variant, and will prevent other immune functions from doing any better.

As a result (Vanden Bossche argues), while those recipients are protected against the originally-circulating version, they have been made completely defenseless against any of the routine variants which inevitably appear as a virus progresses through its natural cycle.

Further, because the "vaccine" treatment offers only partial protection from variants (while having neutralized what would otherwise be a very robust and, in most cases, fully effective natural immune response), invading viruses in such recipients have time to replicate as even more divergent variations which will be shed into the environment during the brief period the "vaccinated" and defenseless host remains alive.

In short, the current pseudo-vaccine recipients-- whose natural immune systems would otherwise have continued to keep infection fatality rates too small to be of any significance in the vast bulk of the population-- have been marked for death, or spending the remainder of their lives in a bubble. Only those already compromised by age or co-morbidities to the point of meaningful vulnerability to the original virus are at all benefited by the "vaccines", and then only until a variant wafts their way.

VANDEN BOSSCHE GOES ON to argue that in fact, because these narrowly-focused "vaccines" are being mass-distributed into an already-infected population in which mutation-pressure has already begun to produce variants-- rather than in advance of an outbreak of disease where a wall of embedded defense against the arriving version of the virus might stop the thing cold-- the current "vaccination" campaign will simply and ruinously guarantee the generation of increasingly dangerous variations. The existing slight variants will accomplish "viral immune escape" (as Vanden Bossche puts it), surviving the too-narrowly-targeted "vaccine" antibodies while being protected by those antibodies from the innate NK-cell defense, and going on to evolve into super-variants.

I find this contention-- or, at least, the urgency of this warning-- less persuasive.

Here, Vanden Bossche assumes that the "vaccine"-proof variants coming to life in the imperfectly-protected recipients of the current jab-campaign will be more virulent and somehow able to overwhelm a healthy non-specific immune response, contrary to historical norms. I think it is safer to say that the variants will simply be differently virulent.

These new versions will have the variance of physiology prompted by their bout with the feature-specific "vaccine" antibodies and the survival of mutations invulnerable to those targeted antibodies. But there is no reason this means more dangerously virulent when facing a healthy natural immune system unhampered by "vaccine" interference.

In this regard, I think Dr. Vanden Bossche loses sight of his own argument about the robustness of the natural, undifferentiated immune response when able to do its work as designed. That response (of the so-called NK-- natural killer-- cells) has successfully kept the original C19 virus at a level of threat well below that of a normal seasonal flu. Why would it not continue to do so against variants, in regard to each of which the NK cells would perform with identical potency?

On the other hand, this second warning by Vanden Bossche's about the possible broad-swath dangers of the "vaccines" (as opposed to the certain harm done by them to individual recipients) does lead to his very important observation that masks and "social distancing" and other interferences in the normal comingling of human populations have been diminishing immune system health in all those practicing these foolish measures. Those who want to live must immediately unmask and resume the normal human contact that is key to a healthy immune system.

In fact, ironically, it is only those who have received the currently-flogged "vaccines" that must be prevented from intermingling with others. Those who have not can do best for themselves and everyone else by resuming full, unimpeded interpersonal contact.

ALL TOLD, DR. GEERT VANDEN BOSSCHE'S warning against the "vaccines" being inflicted upon the world right now-- some of which he appears to have had a hand in developing-- comes down to this: DON'T LET YOURSELF GET JABBED.

If Vanden Bossche is right, taking the "vaccine" has been unwittingly suicidal. Those in otherwise good health who have taken the "vaccine" have doomed themselves to death from the inevitable virus variants which they otherwise would survive (and possibly not even notice, as with the original). Those in compromised health merely bought themselves a little time before they meet their foreordained fate at the hands of the variants instead of the original.

Likely there is a spectrum of vulnerability to the worst possible outcomes on which every individual falls, due to variables involved. Some will have a chance of survival despite the damage to their immune systems from the "vaccine". But no one can count on that.

The only safe course for those so far unvaccinated is to refuse the shots. The only way out of the trap in which those who have already had the shots find themselves is to stop the "vaccine" programs overall, which will diminish the variant-producing "viral immune escape" pressure and mitigate or eliminate the doomsday scenario of which Vanden Bossche warns.

So, the second takeaway is this: DON'T LET ANYONE ELSE GET JABBED.

THE WHOLE C19 FLIM-FLAM had been bad enough before this "vaccine" lunacy began to roll out. Now, it's so much worse.

It's way past time to open your eyes and say, "No more". If Vanden Bossche is right, it is no longer just your liberty which depends on your doing so. Now, your life depends on it, too.

HERE IS THE INTERVIEW of Dr. Vanden Bossche in which he explains his arguments:

ONE FINAL COMMENT: I know some are going to wonder about the remarkable sequence of events over the last year, specifically:

  • A virus whose IFR is so modest as to barely merit attention is wildly overhyped and used as the excuse for a world-wide imposition of measures (i.e., masks, "distancing", stay-at-home orders) virtually guaranteed to destroy the immune system health of a broad swath of the world population.

  • Concerted efforts are steadily undertaken to suppress information about simple, effective treatments for those who contract disease from the virus, falsely promoting vaccination as the only defense.

  • That everyone exposed to the virus has already acquired immunity is never acknowledged by any voice sounding the alarm from a mainstream platform, again falsely promoting vaccination as the only defense.

  • The engineered hysteria over the nothing-burger virus is leveraged to facilitate election frauds by which a "climate-change-agenda" and vaccine-boosting tool is put into the US presidency in place of a [deeply flawed, but] much more popular skeptic, and control of Congress is put into the hands of the usurper's supporters.

  • This is followed by the rollout of a "vaccine" seemingly designed to cause vulnerability to the entirely-predictable variants of the virus (and indeed, vulnerability to other coronaviruses otherwise routinely-handled by healthy and uncompromised immune systems, such as the normal seasonal flu...), strenuously pushed on everyone-- even those whose risk from the virus is virtually non-existent.

  • All this is done against a backdrop of long-nurtured anxiety about "climate change" and "sustainability", the one obvious answer to which (in the minds of those harboring the anxiety) is a dramatic reduction in a human population depicted by very powerful voices in that "anxiety movement" as surplus, useless eaters.

To those folks, I say, "You're right. That IS curious..."

BUT ALL THESE CURIOUS THINGS probably weren't really for the purpose of anything so overheated as a mass "reduction of the human footprint". They were probably just part of someone's scheme to make a ton of money selling vaccines while acclimating people to a "new normal" of diminished liberty and diminished prosperity for the 99%. Any collateral damage is probably inadvertent.

That'd be better, right?

Not Letting This "Crisis" Go To Waste...

...an important action item opportunity.

FRIENDS, THE SPORADIC BITS OF EASING of the despotic measures to which most of the country has been subjected this year should not be allowed to bleed off the head of steam you probably had been developing. The offenses happened, and they're far from over. Stay hot.

And while you are all warmed up, and while others, if they're smart, are just as hot, I'd like you to send an email (and Facebook post, or whatever) with the following content to everyone you can (with a request that they pass it along, in turn):

[Name], over the last several months you've watched as over-fed state power has been used to literally destroy classical Western civilization and impose a new despotic paradigm. No dissent or debate permitted-- no permission or agreement sought.

YOU KNOW where this will end up if the arrogant state power being used to make this happen isn't radically diminished in size, influence, resources and popular support, and exposed as an opportunistic exploiter of legal ignorance (an ignorance which it has been nurturing in the average mind for decades).

Those things having not yet happened, you should be quaking in your boots-- and you probably are.

Isn't it time-- and past time-- for you to begin helping to make those desperately-needed defensive changes take place? There is only one way these things can happen short of a who-knows-what we'll-end-up-with explosion of violence. I'm going to show it to you.

Read this little two-page document. Click on the links at the end.

When you're done with that reading, you'll know what to do next.

BTW, REMEMBER, ALSO, THAT EVERY AMERICAN has lately been given a stark lesson in the fact that government officials at all levels will lie to you and violate the law without batting an eye. They will do so any time it serves their agenda, and you don't call them out for it.

If you know anyone who has been persisting in denial on the truth about the income tax, you know such nonsense is usually be grounded in some version or another of, "That can't be true..." or "They would never do something like that...". Now's the time to put a pin in that delusional bubble.

As the C19 hoax has starkly shown, "that" certainly CAN be true, and they certainly WOULD do something like that.

Use this evidence in all your outreach efforts.

Regarding Trolleries

(Deceitful efforts to discourage Americans from learning the truth about the "income tax")

 

 

FOR ALL THE YEARS SINCE 2003 when CtC was first published, the government has engaged in a concerted effort to frighten people away from its truths. This effort involves official government websites and press releases touting an occasional court ruling that appears to be at odds with some CtC-revelation (but without details sufficient to expose the real substance of the ruling)-- and sometimes even more mendacious behavior.

Are the presentations and resources offered on this site and in my other work of any value to you?

Tim Kendrick has posted a video on YouTube regarding donations. I didn't know what to do about it to begin with; I don't do what I do intending for anyone to feel obligated in any way.

But of course, no one IS obligated. I will continue to make my work freely-available here, and in my books for only the cost of a cheap paperback.

Thus, even though I post it here below, Tim's very thoughtful personal resolution and encouragement to others is just an invitation for consideration by those who may not be conscious of the fact that I can't do what I do without support. No one is to feel any pressure from it; if it moves anyone to act let it be solely because it seems right.

LEAD BY EXAMPLE

KNOW WHERE TO FIND THE RESOURCES

BE FAMILIAR WITH THE SCAMS, THE MISUNDERSTANDINGS, AND THE TROLL-POLLUTION

TAKE CHARGE IN YOUR STATE FORUM, HELPING EVERYONE TO THINK CLEARLY AND STAY ON TOPIC

All-in-all, just be the sort of person for others that you would go to yourself for trustworthy leadership.

Leadership is a challenge. But it's not complicated, and you can do it.

Are You Having Trouble Spreading The Word?

SKEPTICISM (SOMETIMES INVOKED BY FEAR) IS TO BE EXPECTED when you're trying to explain to someone that everything they've been encouraged their whole lives to believe about something as entrenched and significant as the income tax is basically nonsense. So here's a way to help cut through the resistance:

Ask your listener how he or she would react if you were to show an announcement from the Commissioner of Internal Revenue admitting that the tax doesn't apply to the earnings of most Americans and is misapplied most of the time because people don't understand how it works? Or how about if you showed a ruling from the Supreme Court saying the same?

Now you just have to explain that you're going to show exactly those things-- but because the state really doesn't want people to know this, these things haven't been said quite as forthrightly as we would all wish. It's going to take a bit more work to take these admissions in than is sufficient for just reading a press release. But it'll be worth the effort...

Why I Believe That Covid Derangement Syndrome Is Real

by Donald J. Boudreaux

Over the past two weeks I’ve received emails urging me to tamp down my criticism of restrictions imposed in the name of fighting Covid-19. Most of the correspondents are polite, sincere, and even warm. Each, however, is convinced that I underestimate the threat that Covid poses to humanity. Each correspondent hopes that I come to take this threat much more seriously.

What follows here is part of my response to each of these correspondents. This essay isn’t meant to change their minds but, instead, to better explain why I hold the position that I do toward Covid, as well as toward the public’s and governments’ responses to Covid. For the record, I understand that different individuals have different risk preferences. I genuinely respect these differences.

I understand also that different individuals even have different perceptions of reality. As with the understanding of reality achieved by blindfolded persons each touching a different part of the elephant, reality isn’t revealed to everyone in the same way. Yet I’m sufficiently old-fashioned to believe that there is an objective reality, and that it’s the duty of everyone who comments publicly on that reality to do his or her best to understand it as well as possible, despite the inaccessibility of perfect understanding.

I believe also that, while the range of legitimate differences in this understanding is wide, this range isn’t unlimited. Some understandings are so detached from reality as to be illegitimate – as in, not to be taken seriously. It is for each reader to judge for himself or herself if my understanding of reality, as I express it here (and elsewhere), falls within or outside of the legitimate range.

Below is a list of some of the facts, as I understand them, about Covid-19, as well as about the reaction to this disease. Although some of these facts are more firmly established than are others, I believe that each of the facts detailed below is legitimate, and that my interpretations of them are plausible.

Further, I believe that my understanding justifies my relative lack of anxiety about Covid’s likely impact on me personally and about its impact on humanity. And I believe that the facts as I understand them warrant my description of the media’s, the public’s, and governments’ reactions to Covid as being hysterically excessive.

The Overestimated Dangers of Covid and Underestimated Dangers of Lockdowns

Continued...

Click here to read the rest of this article

...and then proceed to the afterword below...

Afterword

THE ONLY FAULT I CAN FIND in Donald Boudreaux's argument is in his considerable overstatement of the threat of C19 as being, for instance, in the neighborhood of 10 times more lethal than the normal seasonal flu. Here are recent CDC's figures for IFRs (by age group), and here are those for the various intensity ranges of seasonal flu.

Otherwise, Boudreaux's observations and complaints are spot on and valuable with only one further caveat. Certainly the C19 panic-buy-in IS a Kool-Aid-drunkard affair. But more importantly, it is an ENGINEERED affair.

The misrepresentations of C19 by the MSM and "official" voices is not carelessness, as Boudreaux generously suggests. It is deliberate, as the overall record, connecting all the dots, makes clear. It needs to be recognized as such, so that the responsible parties can be fingered and denounced, and deprived of all credibility, trust and honor.

This denunciation must extend, by the way, to ALL subjects. Once you have established that a "journalist" or "expert" or politician has lied to you, nothing said by that person-- or the institution on behalf of which he speaks-- should be ever again taken as anything but another piece of dangerous propaganda.

IN ADDITION to the benefit of that "fool me once, shame on you, fool me twice..." permanent-suspicion outcome of recognizing Covid Derangement Syndrome (CDS) and its true nature, there is another benefit. Becoming aware that the "official" and "mainstream" voices have been lying can also equip us with the simple bit of important wisdom that independent experts are ALWAYS more trustworthy than "experts" whose agendas are in line to be funded or whose pockets are in line to be filled by the widespread adoption of the notions they are pushing.

Boudreaux's touch on the subject of The Great Barrington Declaration gets toward this point (see the declaration and some comments here). The huge number of experts who are signatories to the Declaration are not going to be funded on the basis of their statements, nor will they acquire power over you, while those whose assertions they contradict expect both of these gains if their narratives are accepted. Which of the two groups are more credible as speakers of the truth is obvious, and offers a lesson ("Cui bono?") that should never be forgotten or overlooked.

SO, HERE'S THE OTHER THING... In addition to recognizing the reality of CDS and its implications, I will continue to remind everyone that a key defense for the people against despotism under any pretext or by any mechanism is the power individual Americans have over the purse from which all bad state behavior is financed.

That defense was put in place by the Founders in anticipation of just the sort of corruption that reigns today. They knew that if you can control the amount of damage that can be done by bad actors, society can survive the inevitable presence within its ranks of naïfs and fools.

Here is an introductory document by which anyone can learn the critical importance, the promise and the unstoppable character of the "shrinking Leviathan" solution.

Read it through, yourself. Then share it as widely as you can.

A Little Extra

EVEN AS ARDENT A STATIST as Abraham Lincoln, in announcing his willingness to burn the Southern states to the ground in order to keep them paying the tariff for the benefit of Northern interests in his first inaugural address on March 4, 1861, paid at least lip service to the Founders design of leaving control over the fuel available to feed the fires Washington wants to light in the hands of the individual citizenry when he said, "Doing this I deem to be only a simple duty on my part; and I shall perform it, unless my rightful masters, the American people, shall withhold the requisite means..."

Do you know someone truly steeped in the Kool-Aid?

 

I mean someone who finds it easier to believe that the far-better-educated, far-more-suspicious-of-government Americans of a hundred years ago were complete morons who granted authority to the state to take whatever it wished from themselves and their posterity than to imagine that they themselves simply misunderstand the true nature of the income tax? Even while knowing that their beliefs about the tax are derived entirely from the representations of those who profit from those beliefs (like tax bureaucrats and "tax professionals")?

 

Do you know someone like that? Shake them awake with the latest (fifteenth) edition of CtC!

C'mon! CtC can't be right! You're crazy!

If CtC were actually right, it would mean the government's been concealing and denying and suppressing the truth for years on end, and everybody knows THAT would never happen...

Illuminating anniversaries of this week:

March 16- In 1521, Ferdinand Magellan reaches the Philippines.  In 1751, James Madison is born.  In 1792, King Gustav III of Sweden is fatally shot in an assassination (though he won't die for almost two weeks).  In 1861, Edward Clark replaces Sam Houston as Governor of Texas after Houston is evicted from office by the people for refusing to take an oath of loyalty to the Confederacy.  In 1867, Joseph Lister publishes an article introducing the concept of antiseptic surgery.  In 1926, Robert Goddard launches the first liquid-propellant rocket.  In 1958, Ford produces its 50 millionth car (a T-bird).  In 1968, between 350 and 500 Vietnamese men, women and children are massacred by United States soldiers at My Lai.  In 1968, GM produces its 100 millionth car (an Olds Toronado).  Lieutenant-Colonel Oliver North and Vice Admiral John Poindexter are indicted on charges of conspiracy to defraud the United States in connection with the Iran-Contra scheme.  In 2014, Crimea overwhelmingly votes to secede from Ukraine and re-join Russia.  In 2020, "lockdown" announcements by state governors in response to the COVID-19 hysteria caused the Dow to lose 2,667.1 points, the largest point-drop in history, and second largest percentage drop, at 12.93%, eclipsing even the 1929 "Black Monday" event.

Crouch down and lick the hand that feeds you. May your chains set lightly upon you; and may posterity forget that ye were our countrymen."

About The Author

Pete Hendrickson is possibly the most effective lawyer in history, even while never having set foot in a law school, nor ever being a card-carrying member of "the bar". He is the first American in history to secure a complete refund of Social Security and Medicare ‘contributions’ withheld from his earnings (along with all other property taken for federal taxes); further, since 2003 students of his legal analyses and arguments in ‘Cracking the Code- The Fascinating Truth About Taxation In America’’ (CtC), and its sequel, 'Was Grandpa Really a Moron?' have been routinely retaining and recovering billions of dollars which otherwise-- wrongly, but as a matter of course-- would have gone to federal or state government treasuries. This despite concerted efforts by government to suppress his work, and in some cases vigorously oppose the claims by his students.

Hendrickson is also a widely-read essayist on matters of politics, public policy and law; many of these works are collected in his second book, ‘Upholding the Law And Other Observations’. He is a member of Mensa; an award-winning artist; and has paid his dues as a youth soccer coach. He is a long-time political activist as well, and has served as co-chair and platform convention delegate of Michigan’s largest county Libertarian Party organization; as a consultant to the National Right to Work Foundation and Citizens for a Sound Economy; as a member of the Heartland Institute; and as a member of the International Society for Individual Liberty. He is a frequent radio-show guest on stations across the country.

Hendrickson's business career has included nearly a decade-and-a-half at the leading edge of the renewable-energy industry, both as Director of Purchasing and Materials Management and member of the R&D board at Starpak Energy Systems, the mid-west's then-largest solar heating and energy-recovery-and re-utilization company; and as founder and president of AFJ Inc., a high-efficiency lighting design, manufacture and installation firm.

Beginning in the mid-1990s and continuing for the twelve years before his present full-time focus on the restoration of the rule of law in America, Hendrickson directed purchasing activities for the $84 million-a-year multi-family-housing division of the Farmington Hills, Michigan branch of Edward Rose and Sons, with responsibility for 18,000+ apartments, direct supervision of 35 technicians and agents, and incidental authority over several hundred divisional workers. He also ran the division's 10 cable television earth-station and distribution systems in four states, and designed and administered the company's website.

On rather the other end of the spectrum, amidst these more mundane pursuits Hendrickson co-founded and was the primary creative force behind a small board- and card-game company that enjoyed a modest success for several years.

Hendrickson makes his home in southeast Michigan, with his wife and two children. He is currently working on his next book.
