(THE AGE headline): "Fatal heart attacks have surged [17%] in Australia. Here’s why"
https://www.theage.com.au/national/fatal-heart-attacks-have-surged-in-australia-here-s-why-20230117-p5cd22.html

I'm going to make a case why Extra-Time needs to new Megathread on Covid issues. The reason is, in the past 2 years, virtually everyone dismissed and mocked any suggestion of these being linked to the actual Covid or the Covid vaccines. Now, we're at the point where even the Mainstream Media is fully acknowledging the 17% increase in heart attacks. So we need a reset to the Megathread where people start their discussion with acknowledging these things are happening.

The new debate in 2023 is: Was it because of Covid itself, or because of the Covid vaccines?

I'm trained in a scientific field. When asked whether the 17% increase in heart attacks is from Covid or from the vaccines, I see that a good scientist would say: It's not clear, so let's do more research to find out.

I challenge you to find any establishment scientists who takes a neutral view. Instead, all the Mainstream Media will be pushing to convince the Masses that it has nothing to do with the vaccines - but entirely from Covid itself.

Why? Because any scientists who heads in the direction that it could be the vaccines - they stand to lose their jobs.

Why? Because if the government and Media ever admitted the 17% heart attacks were from the vaccine that they said, "No jab, no job" - you tell me what would erupt?

You realise, don't you, that because the establishment has been pushing to get young children and babies vaccinated with the MRNA substances - and Moderna has spent billions to establish MRNA factories in Australia -- do you think that anyone can now neutrally investigate whether these MRNA substances are the cause of the 17% increase in heart attacks? If you are open-minded, please listen to Professor Robert Clancy from Newcastle University in NSW, explaining the dangers of MRNA vaccines:

Before we list some evidence, remember you were told this in 2021:

For starters, here are articles which point to studies linking diseases from the vaccines itself, not from Covid.

Here's an Israeli cohort study - involving 196,992 patients - which concluded (Quote from Abstract): "We did not observe an increased incidence of neither pericarditis nor myocarditis in adult patients recovering from COVID-19 infection."

https://euroweeklynews.com/2022/07/08/no-increase-myocarditis-covid-infection-unvaccinated/

https://www.mdpi.com/2077-0383/11/8/2219/htm

i.e. the increase in heart disease was vaccine-driven.

When people tell fibs, the inconsistencies cannot be covered up.

So, on one hand, the Australian authorities acknowledge there's a link of myocarditis to the vaccines. But when it comes to explaining the 17% annual increase in heart attacks, they say it had totally nothing to do with the vaccines. How is that?

An honest neutral answer would be something like: "We don't know. Further investigation is needed".

But when they are SO confident that it has nothing to do with the vaccines -- that manages to fool the vast majority of Aussies, who do not question anything they are told.

The following is a very dangerous idea: That you can test if it was "due to Covid" or "due to the vax" by comparing the data for 2021 versus 2022.

Notice that THE AGE article says the excess deaths started in 2022. That is consistent with data from all around the world, not just Australia.

Covid began at the start of 2021, but no vax.

The vax rollouts were well under way by end of 2021 and into early 2022. See following graphs.



This is consistent with many other findings of vaccine danger, where they compare 2021 data with 2022 data.

Remember, when they talk of excess deaths, they're talking of non-Covid deaths. No excess deaths in 2021. The excess deaths began in 2022.

Think. It is very dangerous to think. It is far easier to swallow without thinking. History shows us that the vast majority of the masses, even the highly educated, do not think, but they swallow.

This is consistent with embalmers finding unusual stringy clots in cadavers - which for their entire careers they've never seen. No such clots in 2021. Only started after the vaccine rollout. Let me know if you want me to give links to those videos, but you can find them on rumble-dot-com

Remember this key: compare 2021 data with 2022 data.

Who knew that contracting a disease that can have severe and ongoing deleterious effects on your immune system, lung tissue and major organs post illness would result in an uptick in deaths?

Well not John Smith apparently.

After being almost asthma free for the past 25 years I contracted covid in April of last year. Since then I have had 4 colds, each time testing negative to covid. The kicker being my asthma has returned with a vengeance with each of those colds. The third cold I had saw me at the emergency dept at the local hospital. The last cold which I caught 2 weeks ago has had me taking ventolin up to 4 times a day as well as the now preventative I'm on. (Today is the first time in 2 weeks I haven't had to take my ventolin after I woke up.)

Any dickhead that tries to tell me covid is not dangerous needs to give themselves an uppercut.

Of course the resident rocket scientist will tell me it's the vaccine that's caused my dramas rather than a viral respiratory illness.

How did you know my university degree was in rocket science? :D

Muz, I can tell you are a man of science -- by the way you show such dexterity with handling data -- so I refer you to the website of the Australian Bureau of Statistics where this all comes from:
https://www.abs.gov.au/statistics/health/causes-death/provisional-mortality-statistics/jan-sep-2022




Muz, let's break it down into two steps.

Step 1

Muz: "You're an idiot, John Smith, don't you realise that Covid can cause lots of health problems?"

John: "Muz, I agree with you. Covid can cause health problems. Let's go to Step 2".


Step 2

John: "Muz, I'd like you to compare two things:

A) Covid potential health problems BUT NO VACCINE in 2021.

B) Covid potential health problems PLUS VACCINE ROLLOUT 2022 --> 17% increase heart attacks


The data is indicating that the 17% excess heart attacks was in 2022 when there was the vax --- not in 2021 when there was no vaccine.

Remember, it took Big Pharma close to a year following the start of Covid before they brought out the vaccines.

I leave you with this quote:

"... people are almost never convinced by scientific data, and almost never change their mind on a grand lie based on presented evidence, no matter how clear, scientific and well documented. Changing of the human mind happens ~99% of the time based on the emotional response, not the rational response."
https://sashalatypova.substack.com/p/message-to-a-nice-swedish-man?

But I haven't given up on you, Muz, so I've given you the scientific data above. Sure, people can interpret the data in different directions. And if you search the internet, you will find people on both sides. But I encourage you to be a truth-seeker and argue based on actual data, rather than emotional arguments.


p/s I don't have a degree in rocket science. Just kidding.

By the way, for those of you with precious loved ones in your life who have the XX chromosome, whatever society calls them these days ... women, girls, birthing-people etc. Take note of the statement by Dr. Kimberly Biss (OB/GYN), a practicing obstetrician & and gynaecologist, who says infertility and miscarriages have skyrocketed since the arrival of covid jabs. Note she did not say it happened after Covid. She says it happened after the vaccine rollout.

To people who say the excess deaths are from Covid, not from the Covid-vaccines, I highlight today's video by Dr. John Campbell to show you the depravity that government officials with go to fool the public.

At @0:59 in the video, Dr Campbell pointed out that the U.K Chief Medical Officer explained away the excess deaths because people were not able to get their Statin medications during the pandemic. But as Dr John Campbell pointed out, most 14 year olds are not on Statin medications. So it shows the level of duplicity in the cover-up.



Dr John Campbell, "European excess deaths, official data"
https://youtu.be/ku2Fv7xnL1o

https://www.euromomo.eu/bulletins/2023-01/

https://actuaries.org.uk/news-and-media-releases/news-articles/2023/jan/17-january-23-cmi-says-2022-had-the-worst-second-half-for-mortality-since-2010/

Dr John Campbell, in the above video, in the European data points to two waves of excess deaths. One from Covid, and another from non-Covid. Whereas in our own Australian data from the Australian Bureau of Statistics, the ABS delineated non-Covid deaths, so the excess deaths can be seen more clearly in the Australian ABS graphs.

"So, the age statistics would indicate that it's not vaccine-related, otherwise we'd be seeing a lot more excess deaths in younger people."

"So, the age statistics would indicate that it's not vaccine-related, otherwise we'd be seeing a lot more excess deaths in younger people."

Muz, what I wrote below, you probably cannot follow the logic, but I'll write it for other people.

In the article you quoted:

"According to the TGA's October 6 weekly vaccine safety report, only 14 deaths have been directly linked to COVID-19 vaccines in Australia, of which 13 occurred after one dose of Vaxzevria (AstraZeneca)."

I am going to go into detail on HOW the TGA wipes away any link to the vaccines.

First, you need to see how many deaths were reported on the Australian DAEN database.

Search for - TGA DAEN and it will bring you to this Australian government TGA online database, and click "Try the Beta Version" which is much faster:

https://www.tga.gov.au/safety/safety/safety-monitoring-daen-database-adverse-event-notifications/database-adverse-event-notifications-daen

By entering in the word "Covid", you will see that, as of today 24 January 2023, there have been 963 deaths reported allegedly relating to Covid vaccines.

The next question is, how did the TGA say that, out of 963 reported deaths, most of those were un-related to the Covid vaccines -- and only 14 of those could be pinned on the Covid vaccines?

Here is the latest TGA report of 12 January 2023 where they say: "The TGA has identified 14 reports where the cause of death was linked to vaccination from 959 reports received and reviewed."

https://www.tga.gov.au/news/covid-19-vaccine-safety-reports/covid-19-vaccine-safety-report-12-01-23

I will give you an example, that of Melbourne man Peter Lee who got a stroke 2 days after the vax. In the article below, TGA said Peter Lee's stroke was not linked to the vax - because .... Pfizer's Product Sheet does not mention "stroke" as a side effect of the Pfizer vaccine.
"Australia’s medicines regulator, the Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA), does not currently recognise stroke as a known side effect of the Pfizer vaccine. ... according to the Health Department’s website, the scheme will cover the cost of injuries associated with “recognised side effects” of the Pfizer and AstraZeneca Covid-19 vaccines listed in their product information sheets."

https://www.news.com.au/lifestyle/health/health-problems/melbourne-mechanic-suffers-stroke-two-days-after-pfizer-vaccine-doctors-say-cause-unknown/news-story/9832c32659dce2118dccfb7d68f8ebbd


This means that any side effect NOT listed on Pfizer's official product sheet, TGA says it is not connected to the Pfizer Covid vaxes.

Here is where to get the latest official product sheet from the TGA's website:

https://www.tga.gov.au/covid-19-vaccine-pfizer-australia-comirnaty-tozinameran-mrna

From the official Pfizer "Product Information" that I downloaded today from the TGA website, these are the officially acknowledged list of side effects:



Notice that: STROKE is not on the list of acknowledged side effects.

In other words, if TGA in 2023 is taking the same approach as they did with Melbourne man, Peter Lee, back in November 2021, it means that, anything not listed on that brief official Product Sheet, TGA will say it has nothing to do with the Covid vaccines.

EXCEPT THAT the TGA is totally ignoring the Pfizer documents that have been forced out of Pfizer under Freedom of Information.

Here is one of the documents, written by Pfizer, that shows their side-effects data in the initial batch of vaccines:

https://phmpt.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/11/5.3.6-postmarketing-experience.pdf

The above link is a document written by Pfizer. It is not conspiracy theory. The document was obtained from Pfizer under Freedom of Information laws following a court case where a group of scientists took the CDC and Pfizer to court to force them to hand over their side-effects data.

https://www.biospace.com/article/nonprofit-health-group-heads-to-court-over-release-of-data-for-the-pfizer-biontech-vaccine/

Go through the above Pfizer document. It lists the massive number of potential side effects from the Pfizer vaccines, including stroke, that Melbourne man peter Lee got 2 days after the Pfizer vaccine.



Note carefully at pages 23 & 24 of the Pfizer document, Pfizer states that their data shows that the average latency of getting a stroke is 2 days after the vaccine. Yet, Melbourne man Peter Lee got his stroke 2 days after his Pfizer vaccine - -and TGA waived their hands and said it had nothing to do with the Pfizer vaccine. Why? Because, on the official product sheet, stroke is not acknowledged as a side effect of the Pfizer Covid vaccine.

That is how TGA has magically made over 900 reported vaccine-deaths magically disappear, as having nothing to do with the Covid vaccines.

Remember, that above Pfizer document, they fought to keep it hidden from the public for 75 years. Pfizer and the CDC did not want you to see that document, ever. I'm guessing that in 75 years, most of us will be gone from this earth. Fortunately, the Court dismissed Pfizer's attempt to keep these documents hidden for 75 year:

https://news.bloomberglaw.com/health-law-and-business/why-a-judge-ordered-fda-to-release-covid-19-vaccine-data-pronto

The reason why this is not having an impact in the Australia public, is because people like Muz represent the average Aussie. When Muz hears the government say there've been on 14 days attributed to the Covid vaccine in Australia, Muz will absolutely regard any data and evidence, contrary to that, as misinformation.

I do believe that no amount of data and evidence can convince most of you people. That is because ...

"people are almost never convinced by scientific data, and almost never change their mind on a grand lie based on presented evidence, no matter how clear, scientific and well documented. Changing of the human mind happens ~99% of the time based on the emotional response, not the rational response."
https://sashalatypova.substack.com/p/message-to-a-nice-swedish-man?


I think it is TOO BIG A HILL for most of you to climb. The reason is, 95% of us took the Covid vaccines. Therefore, emotionally, you would have to come to the place admitting that you voluntarily took an experimental substance -- still under Emergency Use Authorisation at the CDC --- and you let your spouses, partners and precious children to take that substance. Emotionally, it is far easier to bury your head in the sand, and just follow the official narrative.

For those of you willing to look at the data with your own eyes, in comparison to the 963 deaths reported to be linked to Covid, the contrast is that in the past 52 years for ALL OTHER vaccines combined for use in Australia, according to the TGA DAEN database, there were only 71 deaths. That averages to about 1.4 death reports per year, versus 963 for the Covid vaccine rollout.

Young women had 3.5 times higher risk of death from heart issues after AstraZeneca jab

ONS found greater risk for 12 to 29 year olds in first three months after single dose of AstraZeneca Covid vaccine



The risk of dying from heart issues was three and a half times higher among young women in the first three months after a single dose of the AstraZeneca Covid vaccine, according to a new study.The Office for National Statistics (ONS) analysed hospitalisations, vaccination records and death registrations in England among 12 to 29 year-olds to assess the impact of the Covid-19 jab and infection.After one dose of a non-mRNA vaccine, which includes the AstraZeneca jab, there was evidence of an increased risk of cardiac death in young women, the ONS said.Cardiac death could include cardiac arrest, heart disease, and myocarditis (inflammation of the heart muscle).The risk was 3.5 times higher in the 12 weeks following the vaccination, compared with the longer-term risk.If there is a difference in the risk of death after vaccination compared to longer term, this shows a link to the jab, the researchers said.However, overall among 12 to 29 year-olds in England mortality was not significantly increased in the first 12 weeks after a vaccination, compared to the longer-term risk.The number of deaths registered in England involving Covid-19 vaccines causing adverse effects is miniscule compared to the number administered - 59 compared with 144.7 million.Of the 59 deaths, three were in people aged under 30, the ONS said.

Six cardiac-related deaths

The 3.5-times greater risk among young women following the AstraZeneca jab corresponds to six cardiac-related deaths per 100,000 vaccinated with at least a first dose, according to the study, which was published in the journal Nature Communications.The data relate to vaccinations given between December 2020 and June 2022.Most of the young people who received the AstraZeneca jab before April 2021 would have been prioritised due to underlying health conditions, or because they were healthcare workers.Therefore, the 3.5 times greater risk cannot be generalised to the whole population, the ONS said.There was no strong evidence of an increased risk of cardiac death after vaccination for young men for either vaccine type, non-mRNA (AstraZeneca) or mRNA (Pfizer and Moderna).In April 2021, the Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) confirmed a link between the AstraZeneca jab and rare blood clots.In response, officials recommended that under 30s receive an alternative vaccination because the balance of risk versus benefit of the jab was more “finely balanced”.Since then, further research has linked the Covid vaccination with an increased risk of heart diseases and rare blood clots.Myocarditis has been identified in rare cases following the Pfizer and Moderna jabs in the UK, and are more common in young males.

Risk raised

The ONS also examined the increased risk of death after testing positive for Covid, and found it was raised for both cardiac and all-cause deaths among people.The risk was higher in those who were unvaccinated, they added.Analysing hospital deaths of those who tested positive for Covid, the researchers found 13 per cent were unvaccinated, compared to three per cent who were vaccinated.Vahé Nafilyan, senior statistician at the ONS, said: “We find no evidence that the risk of cardiac or all cause death is increased in the weeks following vaccination with mRNA vaccines.“However, receiving a first dose of a non-mRNA vaccine was associated with an increased risk of cardiac death in young women.“Vaccination with the main non-mRNA vaccine used in the UK was stopped for young people following safety concerns in April 2021, and most of the young people who received it would have been prioritised due to clinical vulnerability or being healthcare workers. Therefore, these results cannot be generalised to the population as a whole.“Whilst vaccination carries some risks, these need to be assessed in light of its benefits. Our analysis shows that the risk of death is greatly increased following a positive test for Covid-19 even in young people and many studies show that vaccines are highly effective at preventing hospitalisation or death following Covid-19 infection."We will continue to monitor data on vaccinations as further doses are rolled out and produce analyses such as this study that contribute to the body of knowledge on risks and benefits of vaccination."Prof Adam Finn, professor of paediatrics at the University of Bristol, said: “These are interesting data which generate as many questions as answers. The findings are somewhat unexpected, as concerns about rare cardiac side-effects – specifically myocarditis and pericarditis – have hitherto been particularly associated with mRNA vaccine second doses in males especially when the dose interval was short, whereas the signal reported here is primarily in non-mRNA first doses in females.”He added that more details were needed about the nature of the reported cardiac events, to help understand the figures and “guide future policy and vaccine design”.
