Federal researchers have confirmed that there is a “risk” of stroke in some people who get the COVID and flu shots at the same time.
But bureaucrats still recommend the risky behavior.
A report published by Just the News explained the findings were laid out in a presentation this month to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices by Tom Shimabukuro, from the Immunization Safety Office.
It was the CDC’s Vaccine Safety Datalink real-time monitoring system that “detected an elevated risk” of “ischemic stroke in people 65 and older who received same-day Pfizer COVID and ‘high-dose’ or ‘adjuvanted’ influenza vaccines.”
Even so, the report said, the CDC still recommends getting flu and COVID-19 shots together, advising that it is not only convenient, but also “safe.”
Using Medicare claims data, Food and Drug Administration researchers had found a greater risk of “non-hemorrhagic stroke” 22-42 days after the Pfizer-flu vaccine combination and “transient ischemic attack” 1-21 days after the Moderna-flu combo in ages 65 and up, the report confirmed.
“The increase from the Pfizer-flu combo was 3.13 NHS cases per 100,000 doses, and the Moderna-flu combination, 3.33 TIA cases. The study analyzed the bivalent versions of the mRNA vaccines, which only require a single dose,” the report said.
Shimabukuro claimed data isn’t “clear and consistent” on any safety problem, and whatever risk there is must be weighed against complications from an “infection.”
The report noted American and Italian researchers both have published findings on unexpected heart problems following COVID vaccination in populations not at risk for myocarditis and pericarditis.
The director of the FDA’s Center for Biologics Evaluation and Research, however, was expressing caution.
He told a recent meeting he probably would get updated on COVID shots, and then take a flu shot weeks later.
A two-week spacing, he suggested, would minimize the chance of “interactions.”
Italian researchers already had found patients with cardiac arrhythmias after getting shots.
The researchers even found heart disorders “are not uncommon,” after they reviewed various American and European systems through which adverse events are documented.
Previously researchers found 2,600 reports of atrial fibrillation among 523 million doses of COVID injections.
“There are many clear safety signals for the COVID vaccine,” from cardiac arrhythmia to sudden death, noted Jane Orient, chief of the Association of American Physicians and Surgeons.
Normally, she said, that would get a product withdrawn from the marketplace immediately.
IMPORTANT NOTE TO WND READERS: “Our country is going communist!” warned Donald Trump recently. “It’s going Marxist, it’s going REALLY bad.” He added, “The PEOPLE of our country aren’t that way – but the people RUNNING it are.” Is this just election-season bluster and hyperbole, or can the utterly unthinkable be true?
Incredibly, it is true. In 2023 America, the Democratic Party – its agendas, its core values, its wall-to-wall dishonesty, and its audacious and utterly ruthless methods – are virtually indistinguishable from those of modern-day communists. Compare the Communist Party USA’s website, CPUSA.org (where the featured top-of-page story is about “TRANS RIGHTS”), with the Democratic National Committee’s website, Democrats.org, and try to discern any substantive difference.
America’s plunge into atheistic Marxism in virtually every area of life – from weaponizing government and courts to destroy critics and political opponents, to crushing free speech, to corrupting and brainwashing the nation’s children, and much much more – is all stunningly explored in the October issue of WND’s critically acclaimed Whistleblower magazine, titled “AMERICA’S COMMUNIST REVOLUTION: How the freest nation in history is rapidly becoming a Marxist police state.” Beyond exposing the Marxist takeover of America’s key institutions, this explosive special report goes on to reveal how Marxism/communism is ACTUALLY A MAJOR WORLD RELIGION, albeit a false and malevolent one. It unearths what REALLY motivates the “high priests” of this truly dark atheistic faith, which has captivated untold millions and murdered millions more. And it vividly illustrates exactly how and why citizens of the greatest nation in history are now experiencing – to quote Barack Obama’s words – “a fundamental transformation of the United States of America.” This Whistleblower issue is a crucial wake-up call for all Americans. WHISTLEBLOWER is available in both the popular print edition and a state-of-the-art digital version, either single issues or discounted annual subscriptions.
