A series of studies indicate the COVID-19 vaccines are responsible for excess deaths, including a Japanese study that directly links the shot to heart failure. The research connected a healthy 78-year-old woman’s heart damage to the third Moderna mRNA COVID-19 vaccine dose she received four days earlier.  The researchers conducted an endomyocardial biopsy and diagnosed the woman’s heart failure as vaccine associated myocarditis (VAM).

The researchers were able to save the woman’s life with a positive diagnosis. They said the standard biopsy procedure would not have connected the heart disease to the vaccine dose she received. This is the first known case of inflammatory dilated cardiomyopathy (IDCM) that was proven with a biopsy days after receiving a dose of the mRNA vaccine. They were able to treat the heart damage with corticosteroids, and the woman was able to survive.

The researchers say the study has some limitations, but they encourage clinicians to perform an EMB for patients who present with the dilated cardiomyopathy phenotype after receiving a SARS-CoV-2 vaccination.

Meanwhile, a new study by Denis Rancourt came to this conclusion regarding excess deaths during the pandemic. “We are compelled to state that the public health establishment and its agents fundamentally caused all the excess mortality in the COVID period via assaults on populations, harmful medical interventions, and COVID-19 vaccine rollouts. We conclude that nothing special would have occurred in terms of mortality had a pandemic not been declared and had the declaration not been acted upon.”

Rancourt authored a paper in September 2023 concluding that the COVID-19 vaccines were responsible for the deaths of 17 million people. These papers have not been peer-reviewed. One fact check from Logically Facts states that Rancourt’s analysis is “highly flawed.” It states that correlation doesn’t equal causation and that the study’s authors did not determine the vaccine status of the deaths in the study.

The experts quoted in the fact check state that Rancourt and his colleagues failed to account for the possibility that the COVID-19 virus caused the excess deaths. In their latest study, Rancourt addressed the hypothesis that the virus caused the excess deaths.

Rancourt’s latest analysis determined that the data is inconsistent with a viral cause hypothesis for the excess deaths from 2020-2023. He provides several bullet points to support that conclusion. The study says that excess death spikes in 2020 correlated with the World Health Organization’s pandemic declaration.

“We understand the COVID-period mortality catastrophe to be precisely what happens when governments cause global disruptions and assaults against populations,” the study summary stated. “We emphasize the importance of biological stress from sudden and profound structural societal changes and of medical assaults (including denial of treatment for bacterial pneumonias, repeated vaccine injections, etc.). We estimate that such a campaign of disruptions and assaults in a modern world will produce a global all-ages mortality rate of >0.1 % of population per year, as was also the case in the 1918 mortality catastrophe.”

Rancourt asserts that there were no spikes in excess deaths before the pandemic declaration, and that is across several continents. The study states that they witnessed single spikes rather than multiple peaks, which would be expected if the virus was the cause. Furthermore, the data shows “persistent high excess mortality after a pandemic is declared to have ended.”

An Italian study was also recently published that shows the vaccines did not reduce the excess deaths but actually increased the number of deaths when compared to the height of the pandemic in 2020. The researchers took the data from a previous study and adjusted the result to account for immortal time bias (ITB). The conclusion of the original data without accounting for ITB was that “the group who received at least a booster dose had an unlikely significantly lower risk of all-cause death versus the unvaccinated, unlike those vaccinated with one or two doses who had significantly higher risks than the unvaccinated.”

After adjusting the data to account for ITB, the authors concluded, “We found all-cause death risks to be even higher for those vaccinated with one and two doses compared to the unvaccinated and that the booster doses were ineffective. We also found a slight but statistically significant loss of life expectancy for those vaccinated with 2 or 3/4 doses.”

The CDC has recommended that everyone above six months of age get updated COVID-19 vaccines and flu shots this fall to prepare for the winter. The CDC states that millions of people have received the vaccine under “the most intense vaccine safety monitoring in United States history.”

The trust in CDC statements regarding the safety of vaccines is being increasingly questioned following the release of V-Safe data from ICAN and a recent paper that was published by the Godfather of Vaccines, Stanley Plotkin. Plotkin makes several admissions about the lack of pre and post-licensure testing for safety and efficacy.

While a frequent rebuttal to claims of vaccine harm is that correlation does not equal causation, the Plotkin paper admits that the vast majority of negative health outcomes following vaccination provided “inadequate evidence to prove or disprove causation.” Despite the increased excess deaths following the vaccine rollout and admitted insufficient safety data, the CDC is still telling parents to vaccinate their babies and themselves against COVID-19 this fall.
