    Seriously, they can't help it. If the court green lights this crap, all bets are off.

    Florian Dagoury: World Record Holder In Static Breath-Hold Freediving Diagnosed With Myopericarditis After Pfizer Vaccine, Possible End Of Career : The COVID World

    Florian Dagoury: World Record Holder In Static Breath-Hold Freediving Diagnosed With Myopericarditis After Pfizer Vaccine, Possible End Of Career

    Florian shared his experience on Instagram:

    Myocarditis, Pericarditis and Trivial Mitral regurgitation! Thank you Pfizer.

    Just want to share my annoying experience after vaccination and perhaps have some testimonials and similar stories around Freedivers. Did you get better?

    After my 2nd dose I noticed that my heart rate was way higher than normal and my breath hold capacities went down significantly. During sleep, I’m at 65-70bpm instead of 37-45bpm. During the day I’m now always over 100bpm instead of 65bpm, even when I sit down and relax. I once even reached 177bpm while having dinner with friends !!!! 10 days after my 2nd jab, I went to see a cardiologist and he told me it’s a common side effect of Pfizer vaccin, nothing to worry about, just rest it will pass. 40days after 2nd jab, I had no progress so I went to see another cardiologist and got diagnosed with Myocarditis, Pericarditis and Trivial Mitral regurgitation! Which is basically an inflammation of the heart muscles caused by the immune system and some tiny leaks of blood from the valves that no longer close properly. I’m now struggling to reach 8min breath hold, 150m dyn and I even have a strong urge to breathe doing 40m dives. 30% decrease on my diving performance roughly.

    The news comes shortly after French tennis player Jérémy Chardy and triathlete Antoine Méchin were forced to suspend their seasons after a severe adverse reaction to the COVID-19 vaccine.


    My first thought and recommendation to Freedivers around the world is to choose a vaccine which is done the old fashion way like Sputnik, Sinovac, Sinopharm etc…instead of those new mRNA vaccines.

    Cody Flint: 33-Year-Old Commercial Airline Pilot Develops Brain Swelling And Can No Longer Fly Following Pfizer Vaccine : The COVID World

    WASHINGTON, D.C. – Cody Flint, a pilot, gave his testimony during a three-hour panel discussion hosted by US Senator Ron Johnson on November 3rd in Washington D.C. The expert panel included citizens suffering from vaccine-induced injuries and medical experts on federal vaccine mandates. The citizens traveled from all across the US to the nation’s capital to share their stories.

    Flint – a previously healthy 33-year-old agricultural pilot – received his first dose of the Pfizer vaccine on February 1st, 2021. Within 30 mins after getting the injection, he displayed symptoms of an adverse reaction. Two days later when he was back in the cockpit flying he almost immediately knew something was wrong: he developed tunnel vision, his headache worsened and at one point he almost “blacked out.” He was later diagnosed with perilymph fistula.

    He said:

    “Does anyone really think it’s fair to make the vaccine-injured wait years for help? I think we can all agree that refusing or delaying the help we need is unconscionable. We urgently need this help.

    Believe what you wish. The vaccinated spread this thing. And it is not a rare thing.

    Booster up. It is coming for all.

    This is the poison that Big Pharma wants to serve up to all our children?

    Ask governor Gavin if he thinks that's a good idea....

    There is no difference in hospitalizations for kids. They had to use models because in their trials no kids got hospitalized. Just lucky I guess...

    Governor of California in hiding after he develops facial paralysis from booster jab
    The Governor of California Gavin Newsom has been in hiding for over two weeks after he developed either Bell's Palsy or Guillain-Barre syndrome from his booster shot.

    Published: November 9, 2021, 10:52 am

    Sacramento
    Newsom received his booster on October 27 but has been bunkered inside his home because he likely developed Bell’s Palsy. Facial paralysis is one of the side effects of the vaccines which manifests within hours after the injection. Vaccine recipients are 1 533 times more likely to develop Bell’s Palsy after a jab. Guillain-Barre is less likely than Bell’s Palsy by a factor of 4,5.

    — Gavin Newsom (@GavinNewsom) October 27, 2021



    No one has seen him in public since his public display of taking a booster shot. Newsom suddenly cancelled his appearance at the UN Climate Summit, COP 26 in Glasgow, Scotland on November 1-3, fuelling suspicion that he might have suffered an adverse event.

    Law enforcement sources report that Newsom has been isolated in his home with doctors going in and out.

    One journalist, Steve Kirsch, speculated that the reason why Newsom has not yet admitted his injury, is that it would create vaccine hesitancy after he mandated vaccines for children in California. He may be putting healthy children at risk of neurological damage in doing so.

    The risk-benefit analysis for children aged 5 to 11 shows that 117 could be killed to save one child.

    The other reason may be that “he doesn’t want to make the CDC look incompetent for never spotting the safety signal”.


    Newsom got a Covid-19 booster shot at an Oakland clinic after his Johnson & Johnson jab earlier this year. According to Newsweek, he decided to get a Moderna booster to “make a point about mix and match,” which the CDC said was safe to do October 20.

    New data from the Texas health department released Monday proves what health officials have been trying to tell vaccine-hesitant Texans for months: The COVID-19 vaccine dramatically prevents death and is the best tool to prevent transmission of the deadly virus.

    Out of nearly 29,000 Texans who have died from COVID-related illnesses since mid-January, only 8% of them were fully vaccinated against the virus, according to a report detailing the Texas Department of State Health Services’ findings.

    And more than half of those deaths among vaccinated people were among Texans older than 75, the age group that is most vulnerable to the virus, the study shows.

    “We’ve known for a while that vaccines were going to have a protective effect on a large segment of our population,” said Dr. Jennifer A. Shuford, state epidemiologist. “By looking at our own population and seeing what the impact of the vaccines have been on that population, we’re hoping just to be able to reach people here in Texas and show them the difference that being fully vaccinated can make in their lives and for their communities.”

    Telling a person to take two mostly (booster up as it will be more) harmless shots with no long term data on harm is ridiculous if they are healthy and decide not to. They are at little to no risk from the disease and should not be required to put themselves at risk with a new drug. If you want to take the new drugs. You should. If someone does not want to take the drugs. They should not.

    And yes these drugs are leaky.

    ‘Leaky’ Vaccines Can Produce Stronger Versions of Viruses

    No doubt this is America. Quick fix (Booster up) and don’t worry about what really works (be healthy).

    Your link is nothing about COVID-19. It's about a traditional vaccine for a disease in chickens. And yes, traditional vaccines could cause stronger versions of the virus. That's because traditional vaccines use attenuated viruses that are living, and could mutate into a new variant. And as we know, new variants can be more contagious.

    Can this happen with an mRNA vaccine? I would say it's impossible. mRNA in a lab isn't a full virus. It can't mutate, and can't turn into a new variant because the mRNA alone doesn't replicate itself like a full virus.

    Attenuated viruses to form traditional vaccines rarely mutate into a new, more dangerous virus. But it can happen. But the new, mRNA vaccines eliminates this risk. Thanks for showing mRNA vaccines are safer!

    If one-off, anecdotal stories are important to people, how about this poor 9-year old NH kid. No underlying conditions, caught COVID-19, ended up in the ICU with Mis-C. Thankfully, he's expected to make a full recovery.

    Are you going to produce anything that shows vaccine efficacy decreases to 50% at six weeks like he asked?
