Have we forgotten what we should not forget?
In the USA the CDC has set up the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS) for people working in the healthcare, nursing home / care taking system and the general public to report vaccine adverse effects. Unfortunately it is just mandatory and only very few people use it.
Despite this fact, there have been already several thousand reports of adverse effects and 55 deaths during the time frame of 12/15/20 to 1/15/21 in the system. Many of the deaths are seniors, but there are also people in their 40’s. A lot of them died after an extremely short period of time after receiving the vaccination. Some after 45 minutes, 1 1/2 hours, a lot after 12 and 24 hours.
The Norwegian Medicines Agency, the national, regulatory authority for new and existing medicines in Norway reported 23 deaths in their official medical system on 1/13/21 and published the following warning: “Covid-19 vaccination associated with adverse drug reactions in elderly people who are frail”.
There are more deaths published in the press, but since there are no official data to find I will only mention one single case, because I checked it out and it is legit. A HEALTHY and fit 89 year old woman in a senior residence in Germany received the vaccine and died 45 minutes later.
I know from Germany, that the authorities contacted guardians and caregivers of seniors in nursing homes on 12/23/20 that they will come to the nursing homes on Sunday 12/27/20 in the morning to vaccinate all residents and that the respective legal guardian should give his/her consent. There are a lot of lawyers or other legally appointed guardians, taking care of legal and health issues when elderly do not have family. They were not able to reach the doctors of the elderly in such a tight time frame. (12/24/ to 12/27/20 was Christmas holiday in Germany) Since most elderly had been incarcerated in their rooms for nine months, the seniors insisted to get the vaccination to be able to get at least a little bit of their freedom back, e.g. to be able to leave their rooms or go into the back yard. So the elderly and their guardians were highly pressured to consent without the advice of their doctors.
The argument that the listed deaths are mostly frail and sick elderly people might be mostly correct (although in VAERS there are also younger people listed) but it still is an extremely strange statement.
When I remember correctly it used to be that if someone wanted to get a vaccination, she/he went to their personal doctor. The doctor advised for or against the vaccination based on this persons overall health history, status and conditions and the person was able to make an informed decision based on the doctors advice. Nobody received a vaccination if they were sick, because of the risks involved. I know that a family member did not receive a vaccine because of an underlying hereditary condition in his family, which could have triggered a serious livelong illness. This was only known because this person went to his family doctor who knew everybody’s health history in the family.
So why do frail, sick elderly people even get a vaccine without their doctors advice, are pressured, black mailed and forced by authorities to get a vaccine which is still in the testing phase?
Why do we even give this vaccine to the elderly first, considering that the test group for the vaccine consisted only of healthy people between 18 and 56 years of age?
The US recommended that racial and ethnic minorities, black, Hispanic and Native Americans should be prioritized and half of the US states will provide the vaccine for this groups after vaccinating health care workers and the elderly. Since the vaccine has not been tested longterm, the pharma companies can not be held liable for adverse effects and the vaccines have not been approved, but only have an emergency approval, all vaccinations are still in the experimental, testing phase. This smells very badly and the handling of this very strongly reminds me of a very bad period in German history.
I find it very strange that all our governments worldwide want to dictate what someone can do with her/his body. What happened to “My Body, My Choice”? I was always in favor of "pro Choice", but I also expect that this has to be true for everybody.
People are different, have a different history, different genes, different bodies and different health histories. There is NOT one single solution for everyone. Therefore everybody should be able to make his own free and informed decision based on correct information without being black mailed, pressured or tricked - because their LIFE might depend on it. Nobody should be able to take this right away!

All over the internet, the news and social media there are postings and publishings of healthy, young health care professionals and doctors happily getting the vaccine and then providing updates about their minor adverse effects. This is propaganda for the pharma industries, belittles the health risks others might have and degrades a live-and-death decision as trivial. The mantra “I am not doing it for me, but for you,” or "It's solidarity" implies all others have to return the same favor or they are scum. It is disregarding the individual attitude to life, the overall health, health issues and conditions of others, it disregards individuality and basic human rights. This personalized advertising for the pharma industry lets me wonder what kind of "health care workers" would participate in something like this, since they of all people should know that every”body” is different and needs to be treated differently. It’s a highly narcissistic way to rule over others.
In this context I would like to point out that the Nuremberg code, drafted on August 9, 1947, states explicit voluntary consent from patients are required for human experimentation. It requires voluntary consent of the human subject. The Nuremberg Code requires respect for Informed Consent, without “the intervention of any element of force, fraud, deceit, duress, over-reaching, or other ulterior form of constraint or coercion…”
The UN Declaration on BioEthics, negotiated in Geneva, Article 6, Consent, states: “Any preventive, diagnostic and therapeutic medical intervention is only to be carried out with the prior, free and informed consent of the person concerned, based on adequate information. The consent should, where appropriate, be expressed and may be withdrawn by the person concerned at any time and for any reason without disadvantage or prejudice.
There was a reason these codes have been written and implemented.
I deeply hope that the world does remember why!
