U.S. Sen. Johnson Holds News Conference With Families Injured by COVID Vaccines, Ignored by Medical Community
The Defender ^ | 6/29/2021 | Megan Redshaw

Posted on 06/29/2021 9:30:02 AM PDT by Dr. Thorne

Sen. Ron Johnson (R-WI) held a news conference Monday to discuss adverse reactions related to the COVID vaccines — giving individuals who have been “repeatedly ignored” by the medical community a platform to share their stories.

The group that spoke was put together by Ken Ruettgers, a former Green Bay Packers offensive lineman, whose wife suffered an adverse reaction after receiving a COVID vaccine. Ruettgers, who now lives in Oregon, started a website to bring awareness of COVID vaccine reactions to the medical community.

According to the Department of Health and Human Services' VAERS (Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System) website, more than 5,000 Americans have died after receiving one of the COVID-19 vaccines.

My son in law died 57 days after his second Pfizer vaccination of congestive heart failure. His last 57 days were not healthy. The hospital sent him home, he died within 2 weeks..

It's an EXPERIMENTAL vaccine, that redefines the very meaning of the word "vaccine". Literally, the CDC had to redefine the word "vaccine" to fit the COVID-19 vaccine and how it operates.

To quote directly from the CDC website:
To trigger an immune response, many vaccines put a weakened or inactivated germ into our bodies. Not mRNA vaccines. Instead, they teach our cells how to make a protein—or even just a piece of a protein—that triggers an immune response inside our bodies.

Source.

Now ask yourself, if adding a spike protein to every cell in your body is a "good idea"? What experience do we have with RNA? What happens if our immune system decides to attack another COVID variant with the spike protein, and finds that same spike protein in our brain, heart, organs, muscles etc? This is called a Cytokine Storm. What is a Cytokine Storm? This is

Neither of your links explains why an immune response from a vaccine would cause a cytokene storm during an actual COVD infection. You've left out one critical step. To get the cytokene storm you have to become infected with the virus, not just exposed. Once the virus is replicating then you have COVID.

The bottom line is the value of the vaccine is to prevent infection not reduce severity of the infection or the immune reponse.

don’t forget to mention that any other vaccine that has had just a handful of deaths has been immediately pulled from the market. What’s going on that this isn’t happening with this sterilization shot, i mean covid vaccine?

I honestly don’t know what to believe. A friend that is an anesthesiologist told me you could still get sick after having the shot. That is should make the symptoms less severe.

Senator Johnson posted this to his Rumble page a few days ago. Glad to see someone in government is concerned.

I do not believe that is the case. Getting the shot makes getting COVID a lot less likely. The numbers I see are 75,000 vaccinated, 3,000,000 unvaccinated since Aprl 1. But it doesn't make COVID less severe. Hospitalization is still 8-10% and mortality 1 to 1.5%

My uncle had a stroke after the jab, as did a friend’s mother. My grandmother had heart failure after hers. I had covid in late February 2020. I would take covid again over the jab.

Assuming he had life insurance, did the company pay? There has been some discussion here that the insurance companies would deny claims from people who elected to take the experimental vaccine. Also, sorry for your loss.

But the CDC et Al said the shots were only going to lessen the severity, not prevent infection.

My condolences!

I’ve the same question about the life insurance; I called one company (CMFG) and they said they’d still payout.

The CDC said it would do both. Vaccines prevent infection. 75,000 infections in vaccinated oeople since Apr 1 out of 3,000,000 total (includes both vaccinated and unvaccinated).

When the CDC says "it won't prevent infection" they mean it won't absolutely 100% prevent infection. They want you to know you can still get it, but the chances of getting are lower. I don't think they are correct about lessening severity. I could be wrong, but the data I have looked at (old CDC and new Mass data) shows about 8-10% hospitalization and 1 to 1.5% mortality with vaccine.

It has only been 3 weeks and the coroner’s office hasn’t released a report yet. They learned today that they will get it with the death certificate, but 3+ weeks for an autopsy? They had the funeral without the body.

I beg people to read Maddie’s story at the link. And to think, she had this happen and she was in the trials! And they are doing nothing to stop this, nor help her.

THIS IS CRIMINAL.
