Briefing Document: Review of Sources on COVID-19 and Vaccination

 This briefing document summarizes the main themes and important ideas presented in the provided sources, which include an audio interview with Dr. Shankar Shetty, and excerpts from a population-based cohort study in South Korea investigating psychiatric adverse events following COVID-19 vaccination.

Source 1: Excerpts from "Health ALERT! Everything You Knew Has Changed!.mp3" (Interview with Dr. Shankar Shetty)

Main Themes:

• Dr. Shetty's Experience and Challenges: The interview highlights Dr. Shetty's background as a natural life science biologist and general medical practitioner in South Africa. It emphasizes his controversial claim of saving all his COVID-19 patients with early treatment in a resource-limited setting, which ironically led to scrutiny rather than recognition.

• The host states, "...what he did at the time in semi-ural South Africa, limited access to hospital resources, is he kept all of his patients alive through CO and that actually him talking about the fact that he was able to save all his patients got him into more trouble than the fact that he did."

• Dr. Shetty mentions facing increased scrutiny from authorities, including tax and fire departments, and issues with his communication lines, suggesting potential efforts to silence him.

• He states, "Uh I've had all manner of uh I wouldn't say harassment but uh closed scrutiny from the tax man, the fire department. Uh my phone line landline which I think the world knows and was a way to contact me hasn't been working. working for the past 6 months and nobody can tell me why."

• Critique of the Scientific and Medical Community: Both the host and Dr. Shetty express concern over the lack of interest from the scientific and medical community in investigating Dr. Shetty's claims and his successful treatment protocols.

• The host notes, "In a sense it's That in itself is a failure of the scientific and medical community to not want to know."

• Dr. Shetty believes the challenges he faces are due to "concealing the truth" about COVID-19, its treatment, and vaccine-related issues.

• Concerns Regarding COVID-19 Vaccines: Dr. Shetty expresses strong reservations about the COVID-19 vaccines, viewing them as gene therapy rather than traditional vaccines and highlighting their potential harms. He states that his early concerns have been "subsequently been proven to be true."

• He argues, "Besides it being called a vaccine, it is gene therapy... The technology to be used as a vaccine seems to be an overkill. There are easier ways to do the same thing."

• He criticizes the broad implementation of vaccines without proper risk stratification across different age groups and health conditions.

• Pathophysiology of COVID-19 and Vaccine Injuries: Dr. Shetty shares his understanding of COVID-19 as an "immune disregulatory pathology" rather than solely an infective one. He emphasizes the significance of the "eighth day" in the progression of the illness, where immune dysregulation often manifests. He also treats "vaccine injuries."

• He states, "Philip, this is this has always been an immune disregulatory pathology. It has never been an infective pathology."

• Regarding the eighth day, he explains, "...it was always on the eighth day that certain patients would decompensate."

• Spiritual and Holistic View of Health: Dr. Shetty discusses his belief in the interconnectedness of physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual well-being. He touches upon quantum physics and the influence of emotions on DNA and overall health. He advocates for a holistic approach to understanding and addressing health issues.

• He explains, "Human beings haven't realized that through the control of their emotion, they have been given the ability to control the expression of all the DNA around them."

• Critique of the World Health Organization (WHO): Dr. Shetty expresses concerns about the WHO's role and potential capture by vested interests, advocating for a redefinition of its purpose to focus on basic health needs tailored to individual countries.

• He suggests, "I think the role of the World Health Organization needs to be completely redefined... its agenda should be dictated by the individual needs of individual countries and with proper assessment of their health needs."

Main Themes:

• Investigation of Psychiatric Adverse Events (AEs) Post-COVID-19 Vaccination: This study aimed to investigate the occurrence of psychiatric AEs following COVID-19 vaccination in a large population-based cohort in Seoul, South Korea.

• The abstract states, "This study is aimed to investigate the psychiatric AEs after COVID-19 vaccination from a large population-based cohort in Seoul, South Korea."

• Methodology: Researchers analyzed data from the Korean National Health Insurance Service (KNHIS) claims database, including over 2 million participants, divided into vaccinated and non-vaccinated groups. They assessed the cumulative incidences of various psychiatric disorders at different time points (one week, two weeks, one month, and three months) after vaccination and calculated hazard ratios (HRs) to measure the risk.

• The study "recruited 50% of the Seoul-resident population randomly selected from the Korean National Health Insurance Service (KNHIS) claims database on 1, January, 2021."

• Key Findings: The study found a statistically significant increased risk of several psychiatric disorders in the vaccinated group compared to the non-vaccinated group within three months of vaccination:

• Increased Risk: Depression (HR 1.683), anxiety, dissociative, stress-related, and somatoform disorders (HR 1.439), and sleep disorders (HR 1.934).

• The abstract notes, "The cumulative incidence of depression, anxiety, dissociative, stress-related, and somatoform disorders, sleep disorders, and sexual disorders at three months following COVID-19 vaccination were higher in the vaccination group than no vaccination group."

• Decreased Risk: Schizophrenia (HR 0.231) and bipolar disorder (HR 0.672).

• The abstract also states, "However, schizophrenia and bipolar disorders showed lower cumulative incidence in the vaccination group than in the non-vaccinated group."

• No Significant Difference: Eating disorders showed no statistical difference between the groups. Sexual disorders showed a higher cumulative incidence in the vaccinated group at three months but no statistical differences up to one month.

• Impact of Vaccine Type: Subgroup analysis based on vaccine type (mRNA, cDNA, and heterologous) revealed variations in the risk of psychiatric AEs. Heterologous vaccination was associated with the highest risk for depression, anxiety, dissociative, stress-related, and somatoform disorders, and sleep disorders.

• The study found "that the psychiatric disorders (depression, anxiety, dissociative, stress-related, and somatoform disorders, and sleep disorders) with increased risks due to COVID-19 vaccination showed the highest risk in the case of heterogeneous vaccination."

• Potential Mechanisms: The researchers suggest that "neuroinflammation caused by spike proteins may contribute to occurrences of some psychiatric AEs such as depression and anxiety, dissociative, stress-related, and somatoform disorders." They also explore the potential role of immune responses and the HPA axis.

• Conclusion and Implications: The study concludes that COVID-19 vaccination has a differential impact on the occurrence of psychiatric disorders, increasing the risk of some while decreasing others. It emphasizes the need for "special cautions" when administering additional vaccinations to populations vulnerable to psychiatric AEs and highlights the complexity of the relationship between vaccination and mental health.

Source 3: Excerpts from "slaynews.com_news_bombshell-study-confirms-covid-vaccines-alter-human-behavior_.pdf" (News Article Reporting on the Study)

Main Themes:

• Sensationalized Reporting of the South Korean Study: This news article presents the findings of the South Korean study in a headline-grabbing manner, claiming it "confirms Covid ‘Vaccines’ Alter Human Behavior."

• The headline itself makes a strong, causal claim: "Bombshell Study Confirms Covid ‘Vaccines’ Alter Human Behavior."

• Focus on Negative Psychiatric Outcomes: The article heavily emphasizes the increased risks of depression, anxiety, and sleep disorders found in the study, stating that people's "emotions, personalities, feelings, fears, stress levels, mental well-being, and general outlook changed after they were injected with the ‘vaccine.’"

• Attribution to Spike Protein: The article correctly quotes the study's suggestion that neuroinflammation caused by spike proteins may be a contributing factor to these psychiatric AEs.

• It quotes, "'Our study suggests that neuroinflammation caused by spike proteins may contribute to occurrences of some psychiatric AEs such as depression and anxiety, dissociative, stress-related, and somatoform disorders.'"

• Connection to Real-World Observations: The article links the study's findings to the rise in depression rates in the US since 2020/2021, suggesting that the vaccines, rather than just pandemic control measures, may be responsible.

• Amplification of Anti-Vaccine Sentiments: The article includes quotes and references to Dr. Mike Yeadon, a former Pfizer vice president who claims the vaccines were "designed intentionally to harm" and are "masquerading as vaccines," lending credence to anti-vaccine narratives.

• The article states, "As Slay News previously reported, the former vice president of Pfizer has blown the whistle in an explosive testimony to warn the public that Covid ‘vaccines’ were ‘designed intentionally to harm the people who received them.’"

• Call for Banning Vaccines: The article mentions that "eminent experts around the world are increasingly calling for the injections to be banned," further reinforcing a negative perception of COVID-19 vaccines.

Overall Connections and Important Considerations:

• The interview with Dr. Shetty reflects a broader concern about the safety and implications of COVID-19 vaccines, echoing some of the negative outcomes highlighted in the South Korean study (though his perspective is based on clinical observations and broader theories).

• The South Korean study provides population-based evidence of an association between COVID-19 vaccination and an increased risk of certain psychiatric disorders, which aligns with anecdotal reports and concerns raised by figures like Dr. Shetty and reported in outlets like Slay News.

• It is crucial to note the distinction between correlation and causation. While the South Korean study found an increased risk of certain psychiatric AEs following vaccination, it does not definitively prove that the vaccines caused these conditions. Other factors could be at play.

• The news article from Slay News presents the study's findings with a strong negative bias and integrates it with anti-vaccine narratives, potentially oversimplifying the complex relationship between vaccination and mental health.

• The South Korean study also found a decreased risk of schizophrenia and bipolar disorder following vaccination, which is often overlooked in more sensationalized reporting. This highlights the nuanced and differential effects of vaccination on various psychiatric conditions.

• Dr. Shetty's emphasis on the "eighth day" phenomenon and immune dysregulation, while based on his clinical experience, is not directly addressed or supported by the epidemiological data in the South Korean study. However, both sources point to the complex immunological responses following COVID-19 and vaccination.

• The discussion about the WHO's role and potential biases raised by Dr. Shetty is a separate but relevant concern in the broader context of public health responses to the pandemic and vaccine rollouts.

This briefing document provides a summary of the key points from the provided sources. Further in-depth analysis of the study methodology, limitations, and the context of Dr. Shetty's claims is necessary for a comprehensive understanding of these complex issues.

Title: Bombshell Study Confirms Covid ‘Vaccines’ Alter Human Behavior by Frank Bergman https://slaynews.com/news/bombshell-study-confirms-covid-vaccines-alter-human-behavior/

Key Takeaways:

•

A news report highlights a South Korean study published in Nature Journal that allegedly confirms COVID mRNA vaccines alter human behavior, affecting emotions, personalities, feelings, fears, stress levels, mental well-being, and general outlook19 ....

•

•

The report suggests that neuroinflammation caused by spike proteins may be the primary driver behind these vaccine-induced psychiatric disorders, referencing the study's explanation17 ....

Key words:

•

Alter Human Behavior: The news article's central claim is that a study "Confirms Covid ‘Vaccines’ Alter Human Behavior"19 . It states that researchers found that "people’s emotions, personalities, feelings, fears, stress levels, mental well-being, and general outlook changed after they were injected with the ‘vaccine’"19 . The article emphasizes that the COVID injections are responsible for "increasing global reports of major personality and behavioral changes in people in the last four years"20 .

•

Psychiatric Manifestations: The article reports that the South Korean study found that the "vaccines" cause "psychiatric manifestations among the vaccinated"21 .... These "psychiatric changes resulted in spikes in mental health disorders"21 . The article details specific increases in depression, anxiety disorders, and sleep disorders as examples of these "psychiatric manifestations"21 .

•

Spike Protein: The news report highlights the study's explanation that "neuroinflammation caused by spike proteins may contribute to occurrences of some psychiatric AEs such as depression and anxiety, dissociative, stress-related, and somatoform disorders"17 .... The article presents the "spike protein" as the "primary driver behind the surge in vaccine-induced psychiatric disorders" according to the researchers17 .

• Dr. Shetty remarkably kept all of his patients alive through the CO pandemic despite limited hospital resources in semi-rural South Africa. Ironically, his success in saving his patients led to more trouble for him than the pandemic itself.

• Dr. Shetty believes he is a major target because the truth he shares is a "can of worms" that powerful entities do not want to open. He has faced increased scrutiny from various authorities and experienced disruptions that he perceives as attempts to silence him.

• The person who charged Dr. Shetty had a conflict of interest because he was a major player in a university funded by companies that influence the direction of medicine and was involved in the safety testing (which Dr. Shetty claims was not done in their country), the TOGETHER trial involving ivermectin, and supplying PCR tests to the government.

• Dr. Shetty believes that while mRNA technology has potential benefits, particularly in areas like cancer treatment, calling it a "vaccine" in the context of COVID-19 is misleading as it functions more like gene therapy. He argues there were simpler and potentially safer ways to achieve an immune response to the spike protein.

• Philip and Dr. Shetty discuss the counterintuitive problem that for mRNA to be made by cells, it has to suppress interferon, which is a crucial part of the immune system. This suppression seems contradictory to the goal of eliciting a robust immune response.

• Dr. Shetty explains that human beings, blessed with consciousness, can control their emotions, which in turn influences the electromagnetic frequencies they radiate. These frequencies can affect the expression of their own DNA and the DNA of those around them, impacting overall well-being.

• The South Korean study found a statistically significant higher cumulative incidence of depression (a 68.3% spike) and anxiety disorders (a 43.9% increase) within three months following COVID-19 vaccination compared to the unvaccinated group. Sleep disorders also showed a significant surge (93.4%).

• The South Korean study observed a statistically significant lower cumulative incidence of schizophrenia and bipolar disorder in the vaccinated group compared to the non-vaccinated group within the three-month study period.

• The researchers in the South Korean study suggest that neuroinflammation caused by the spike protein, which the body produces in response to the mRNA vaccines, may contribute to the occurrence of psychiatric adverse events such as depression, anxiety, and related disorders.

• According to the slaynews.com article, Dr. Mike Yeadon testified that the COVID-19 mRNA "vaccines" were "designed intentionally to harm the people who received them" and were "masquerading as vaccines."

Frequently Asked Questions about COVID-19 and Vaccination

• Did a recent study in South Korea find a link between COVID-19 vaccination and psychiatric adverse events? Yes, a population-based cohort study in Seoul, South Korea, involving over two million participants, investigated psychiatric adverse events (AEs) following COVID-19 vaccination. The study, utilizing the Korean National Health Insurance Service (KNHIS) claims database, compared vaccinated and non-vaccinated groups over a three-month period.

• What specific psychiatric conditions were found to have a higher incidence in the vaccinated group compared to the non-vaccinated group? The study found that the cumulative incidence of several psychiatric conditions was significantly higher in the vaccinated group at three months post-vaccination. These included depression, anxiety, dissociative disorders, stress-related disorders, somatoform disorders, sleep disorders, and sexual disorders.

• Were there any psychiatric conditions that showed a lower incidence in the vaccinated group? Interestingly, the study found that the cumulative incidence of schizophrenia and bipolar disorders was significantly lower in the vaccinated group compared to the non-vaccinated group over the three-month follow-up period.

• How did the risk of these psychiatric conditions differ between the vaccinated and non-vaccinated groups, according to the study? Using hazard ratios (HRs), the study indicated that COVID-19 vaccination significantly increased the risk of depression (HR 1.683), anxiety, dissociative, stress-related, and somatoform disorders (HR 1.439), and sleep disorders (HR 1.934). Conversely, vaccination significantly reduced the risk of schizophrenia (HR 0.231) and bipolar disorder (HR 0.672).

• Did the type of COVID-19 vaccine received influence the risk of psychiatric adverse events? Yes, the study conducted subgroup analyses based on vaccine type (mRNA, cDNA, and heterologous vaccination). Heterologous vaccination (receiving different types of vaccines for the first and second dose) was associated with the highest risk of depression, anxiety, dissociative, stress-related, and somatoform disorders, and sleep disorders. Notably, only cDNA vaccination showed a significantly decreased risk of bipolar disorder.

• What potential biological mechanism does the study suggest for the increased psychiatric adverse events following COVID-19 vaccination? The researchers suggest that neuroinflammation caused by the spike protein, which the body produces in response to the mRNA vaccines, may contribute to the occurrence of psychiatric AEs such as depression, anxiety, dissociative disorders, stress-related disorders, and somatoform disorders. They also mention the potential role of pro-inflammatory cytokines activated by the vaccination.

• Did the study identify any groups that might be more vulnerable to psychiatric adverse events following COVID-19 vaccination? The study indicated that women were generally more susceptible to psychiatric AEs (except for sexual disorders) compared to men. Subgroup analysis also showed that individuals with higher Charlson's Comorbidity Index (CCI) scores had a significantly increased risk of depression, anxiety, dissociative, stress-related, somatoform disorders, and sleep disorders.

• What are the main conclusions and recommendations of the South Korean study regarding COVID-19 vaccination and psychiatric health? The study concluded that COVID-19 vaccination has a differential impact on the occurrence of psychiatric disorders, increasing the risk for certain conditions like depression and anxiety while decreasing the risk for others like schizophrenia and bipolar disorder. The authors recommend that close observation and special caution are necessary when administering additional COVID-19 vaccinations, particularly to populations identified as being vulnerable to psychiatric AEs.

This audio excerpt introduces a conversation with Dr. Shankar Shetty, a clinician and natural life science biologist practicing in South Africa. The discussion centers on Dr. Shetty's controversial experiences and insights regarding the global health landscape, particularly in the context of the CO pandemic and subsequent vaccine rollout. He recounts his success in treating patients with limited resources, which paradoxically led to scrutiny, and details the charges he faces, which he believes stem from his truthful commentary on the virus and vaccines. The conversation further explores concerns about the influence of pharmaceutical interests on medical practices and global health organizations like the WHO, as well as Dr. Shetty's unique holistic perspective linking health, spirituality, and human consciousness. 

Dr. Shankar Shetty is presented in the sources as a remarkable clinician and general medical practitioner practicing in semi-rural South Africa1 .... He is also described as someone with ethics and integrity who stands up for his patients1 .

Key aspects of Dr. Shetty discussed in the sources include:

•

His handling of COVID-19 patients: Dr. Shetty gained recognition for keeping all of his patients alive during the COVID-19 pandemic despite limited access to hospital resources in his semi-rural practice1 . Interestingly, this achievement reportedly led to more scrutiny and trouble for him rather than recognition from the scientific and medical community1 . He emphasizes that the initial COVID-19 pathology was an immune dysregulatory pathology rather than solely an infective one, noting the critical timing around the eighth day of illness for potential deterioration due to immune dysregulation3 . His ability to anticipate and manage this immune dysregulation is credited with saving many lives3 .

•

His views on COVID-19 vaccines and the resulting controversy: Dr. Shetty holds controversial views on COVID-19 vaccines, stating that his comments around them have "subsequently been proven to be true"2 . He believes the spike protein is pathogenic and foresaw the harms the vaccines would cause, questioning the logic of mandating a vaccine with individual benefit for a perceived group effect4 . He is critical of messenger RNA (mRNA) technology, which he considers gene therapy rather than a traditional vaccine, especially for widespread use in healthy populations5 .... He suggests that a simpler and potentially safer approach would have been to inject spike protein with an adjuvant to trigger an immune response6 .

•

His legal challenges: Dr. Shetty is currently facing a court case that he believes is aimed at concealing the truth4 .... He states that the person who charged him has a serious conflict of interest, being involved in vaccine safety and efficacy testing (which Dr. Shetty claims was not done properly in South Africa), the TOGETHER trial involving ivermectin, and supplying PCR tests4 . Dr. Shetty believes his advocacy for early treatment and his views on asymptomatic spread and lockdowns posed a threat to the establishment4 . He asserts that the charges against him cover a broad spectrum, including the pathophysiology of COVID-19, his treatment methods, vaccine injuries, and his belief in a lab origin of the virus and a "nefarious plan in place"4 . He remains willing to "have his day in court and speak truth"8 .

•

His holistic view of health and spirituality: Dr. Shetty has a broader perspective on health that extends beyond the physical, encompassing spiritual and mental well-being9 .... He draws on concepts from quantum physics to explain ideas like auras (electromagnetic radiation) and the intricacies of consciousness12 . He believes that humans, blessed with consciousness, have the unique ability to control their emotions and, in turn, influence the expression of DNA around them through the frequencies they radiate12 . He views the current global situation as "of our own making," resulting from taking freedoms for granted12 . He advocates for a redefinition of health and a shift in focus for organizations like the World Health Organization (WHO) to include spiritual, mental, emotional, and physical well-being, prioritizing basic health needs over medical interventions10 ....

•

His critique of the World Health Organization: Dr. Shetty is critical of the WHO, believing it has overstepped its role and needs to be redefined10 . He suggests that the WHO's agenda is often dictated by its funders and that it prioritizes a pharmaceutical agenda over true health, which he sees as encompassing multiple dimensions10 .... He was involved in an organization, the Doctors' Federation for the World, which aimed to challenge the WHO's lack of checks and balances14 .

•

His perspective on the ongoing circulation of COVID-19: Dr. Shetty emphasizes that the initial severe phase of COVID-19 was characterized by immune dysregulation, not just viral infection3 . While Omicron presented with milder initial symptoms, he warns that the underlying immune dysregulation still occurs and should not be taken lightly, as it can lead to prolonged illness and complications3 .... He experienced this personally, requiring ICU admission twice due to ignoring symptoms related to immune dysregulation and microvascular clotting around the eighth day of illness3 .... He finds it perplexing why this immune dysregulation tends to manifest around the eighth day16 . He stresses that the world may be in a new physiological paradigm where pre-pandemic research may not fully guide current treatments, and doctors need to be retrained to recognize and address vaccine injuries and altered disease patterns17 ....

In summary, Dr. Shankar Shetty is portrayed as a dedicated and insightful clinician who gained prominence for his successful treatment of COVID-19 patients using his understanding of the disease's pathophysiology. He has become a controversial figure due to his strong opinions on COVID-19 vaccines and the potential harms he believes they have caused, leading to legal challenges. He holds a holistic view of health, emphasizing the importance of spiritual and emotional well-being, and is critical of the current medical establishment, particularly the WHO, for its alleged influence by pharmaceutical interests and neglect of broader health principles. He also cautions that the ongoing circulation of COVID-19, even with milder variants, should not be underestimated due to its potential for immune dysregulation.

Discuss COVID-19 experiences.

Based on the sources, experiences with COVID-19 and related interventions have been diverse and complex, encompassing clinical observations, personal health events, and broader population-level impacts.

Dr. Shankar Shetty's Experiences:

•

As a general medical practitioner in semi-rural South Africa with limited hospital resources, Dr. Shetty reports that he kept all of his COVID-19 patients alive1 . He faced skepticism from the scientific and medical community regarding this achievement1 .

•

Dr. Shetty believes he understands the pathophysiology of COVID-19 and made comments about the vaccines that he states have subsequently been proven true, leading to controversy2 .

•

He has faced "closed scrutiny" and issues such as problems with his phone line, which he attributes to his views and the information he wants to share about COVID-193 .

•

Dr. Shetty is involved in a court case which he believes is aimed at concealing the truth about COVID-19, including the pathogenicity of the spike protein, the harms of the vaccines, and the potential lab origin of the virus4 .... He states that his early opinions on the pathogenicity of the spike protein and the potential harms of the vaccines have largely been proven correct by subsequent evidence5 .

•

From a clinical perspective, Dr. Shetty describes COVID-19 as an immune dysregulatory pathology rather than solely an infective one6 . He observed a critical "eighth day" where patients with the initial variants often suddenly deteriorated due to immune dysregulation6 . He saved lives by anticipating this timing6 .

•

He notes that with the Omicron variant, the "eighth day" phenomenon is less obvious but still significant in terms of potential immune dysregulation that can lead to prolonged recovery periods6 .

•

Dr. Shetty personally experienced severe reactions to Omicron, requiring ICU admission twice, highlighting the potential danger of the circulating virus even if initial symptoms are mild6 .... He emphasizes that repeated exposure to the spike protein could lead to priming and worsened reactions6 ....

•

He believes the approach taken to address the virus, particularly with vaccines, was "absolutely the wrong way" as it interfered with people's immunity, leading to new and unusual immune pathologies9 . He advocates for doctors to be retrained to recognize and treat these issues, including potential vaccine injuries9 .

•

Dr. Shetty criticizes the World Health Organization (WHO), suggesting it has overstepped its role and been influenced by funders with specific agendas, prioritizing medical intervention over basic health needs10 . He advocates for a redefinition of the WHO's role based on the individual needs of countries10 .

Population-Based Study on Psychiatric Adverse Events:

•

A study conducted in Seoul, South Korea, involving over two million participants, investigated psychiatric adverse events following COVID-19 vaccination11 ....

•

The study found that the cumulative incidence of depression, anxiety, dissociative, stress-related, and somatoform disorders, sleep disorders, and sexual disorders was higher in the vaccinated group compared to the non-vaccinated group at three months post-vaccination12 ....

•

Specifically, the study reported a 68.3% spike in depression, a 43.9% increase in anxiety disorders, and a 93.4% surge in sleep disorders in the vaccinated population15 .

•

The study also found that the risks of depression, anxiety, dissociative, stress-related, and somatoform disorders, and sleep disorders were increased after COVID-19 vaccination, while the risks of schizophrenia and bipolar disorder were reduced12 ....

•

The researchers suggest that neuroinflammation caused by spike proteins may contribute to the occurrence of some psychiatric adverse events such as depression, anxiety, dissociative, stress-related, and somatoform disorders21 ....

•

The study concluded that special caution is necessary when administering additional COVID-19 vaccinations to populations vulnerable to psychiatric adverse events13 ....

•

The highest risks for depression, anxiety, dissociative, stress-related, and somatoform disorders, and sleep disorders were observed in cases of heterologous vaccination (receiving different types of vaccines for the first and second doses)24 ....

In summary, experiences with COVID-19 and its interventions have included Dr. Shetty's clinical success with early treatment, his personal severe reactions, and his critical views on the global response. Additionally, a large-scale study indicates a significant increase in certain psychiatric adverse events following COVID-19 vaccination, potentially linked to neuroinflammation caused by the spike protein. These findings highlight the multifaceted impact of the pandemic and the importance of ongoing research and critical evaluation.

Discuss Vaccine controversies.

Drawing on the sources, several controversies surrounding COVID-19 vaccines emerge.

One significant controversy, highlighted by Dr. Shetty, relates to the safety and efficacy of the vaccines1 .... Dr. Shetty claims his early comments about the vaccines, which led to scrutiny and a court case, have subsequently been proven true1 .... He specifically criticizes the mRNA technology used in some vaccines, arguing it is more akin to gene therapy and carries potential risks that were not adequately considered3 .... He questions the logic of using mRNA to produce spike protein when the protein itself could have been injected with an adjuvant to achieve a similar immune response with potentially fewer complications5 .

Dr. Shetty also points to the lack of individualized risk-benefit analysis in the vaccine rollout, arguing that a one-size-fits-all approach was inappropriate given the varying risks and potential benefits for different age groups and health conditions6 . This aligns with concerns raised in the study on psychiatric adverse events, which suggests special cautions are necessary for administering additional vaccinations to populations vulnerable to psychiatric AEs7 ....

The study "Psychiatric Adverse Events Following COVID-19 Vaccination" provides evidence of another significant area of controversy: the potential for COVID-19 vaccines to impact mental health10 .... The study found a statistically significant increased risk of depression, anxiety, dissociative, stress-related, and somatoform disorders, and sleep disorders following vaccination in a large population in Seoul, South Korea8 .... The researchers propose that neuroinflammation caused by spike proteins may contribute to these psychiatric adverse events16 .... This finding contradicts the narrative that vaccines are universally safe and without significant adverse effects beyond mild, short-term reactions. This study has been described as a "bombshell" confirming that COVID "vaccines" alter human behavior by affecting emotions, personalities, feelings, fears, stress levels, mental well-being, and general outlook12 .

Conversely, the same study found a lower incidence and risk of schizophrenia and bipolar disorder in the vaccinated group8 ..., indicating a complex and potentially differential impact of vaccination on various psychiatric conditions9 ....

Another controversy revolves around the handling of dissenting opinions and early treatment options during the pandemic. Dr. Shetty faced significant challenges after reporting his success in treating COVID-19 patients with early interventions2 .... He believes there was a failure of the scientific and medical community to investigate successful early treatment protocols19 . His current legal challenges are seen by him as an attempt to conceal the truth about COVID-19, its treatment, and the vaccines2 .

The role and influence of the World Health Organization (WHO) is also a point of contention20 .... Dr. Shetty and the interviewer express concern that the WHO has been corrupted by false information and influenced by pharmaceutical agendas21 .... They advocate for a redefinition of the WHO's role, emphasizing the need to prioritize basic health needs and for funding and directives to be tailored to individual countries' specific requirements20 . The fact that an organization co-founded by Dr. Shetty and the interviewer aimed to challenge the WHO's functioning and lack of checks and balances further underscores this controversy23 . The WHO's approach to issues like malnutrition in the context of disease outbreaks, where vaccination was prioritized over addressing basic needs, is also criticized24 ....

Finally, Dr. Shetty's personal experiences with COVID-19 highlight the underestimation of the virus's potential for harm and the phenomenon of immune dysregulation that can occur, particularly around the eighth day of illness26 .... His difficulties in getting medical professionals to recognize potential microvascular clotting as a consequence of the virus or vaccination suggest a lack of awareness and retraining needed within the medical community to understand the evolving patterns of illness post-pandemic29 . He argues that the initial approach to the virus and the subsequent vaccination campaign have led to widespread immune problems29 .

Discuss World Health Organization.

Based on the sources and our conversation history, the World Health Organization (WHO) is viewed with significant criticism by Dr. Shankar Shetty. His perspectives include the following points:

•

Overstepping its global role: Dr. Shetty believes the WHO has overstepped its role globally and that its influence needs to be pulled back1 . He suggests that defunding the organization could be one way to achieve this, but cautions against creating a vacuum that could be filled by entities with other agendas1 .

•

Need for redefinition: Dr. Shetty argues that the role of the WHO needs to be completely redefined1 . He emphasizes that each country has unique health needs, and the WHO should prioritize basic health parameters like water and sanitation, food security, and emotional security before medical intervention1 .

•

Shift in focus from health to medical intervention: Dr. Shetty questions whether it is the "World Health Organization" or the "World Medical Organization" because it seems to put medical intervention first, driven by a pharmaceutical agenda1 . He believes true health encompasses spiritual, mental, physical, and emotional well-being1 ....

•

Influence of funders: Dr. Shetty contends that the funders of the WHO tend to dictate its direction, leading to potential biases1 . He expresses concern that leaving a funding vacuum could give these players even greater influence1 . He also suggests that the WHO seems to be a "front for other players" and a "private club" used for monetary gain by affluent members3 .

•

Lack of understanding of local health needs: Dr. Shetty opines that the WHO has grown into a body of people who are out of touch with the actual health needs of the populations they are supposed to serve4 . He believes their decisions are not based on a proper assessment of individual countries' needs1 .

•

Lack of checks and balances: Dr. Shetty was involved in the Doctors' Federation for the World, an organization that recognized the need to challenge the WHO because it was functioning without enough checks and balances, with an assumption that it was always doing the right thing4 . The aim was not necessarily to remove the WHO but to provide an audit and challenge to protect global interests and the integrity of the organization itself4 .

•

Response to the pandemic: Dr. Shetty implies that the WHO was influenced by false information during the pandemic5 . He suggests that the pandemic could have been managed differently if early treatment had been prioritized, but this was not financially viable3 . He also notes that his own experiences and information were often censored3 .

•

Actions in specific situations: Dr. Shetty criticizes the WHO's response in the Congo regarding "disease X" (which turned out to be malaria), where despite recognizing malnutrition as a major issue, their solution was to bring vaccines, which he found illogical6 ....

In essence, Dr. Shetty views the WHO as an organization that has strayed from its core mission of promoting global health by being unduly influenced by pharmaceutical interests and powerful funders. He advocates for a fundamental reevaluation of its role, funding, and priorities to better serve the diverse health needs of all countries and to incorporate a more holistic understanding of health.

Discuss Spiritual health connection.

Dr. Shankar Shetty discusses a significant connection between spiritual health and overall well-being, viewing health as more than just the absence of physical disease1 .... He brings a unique perspective by integrating scientific understanding with what might be considered spiritual concepts3 ....

Here are the key points on this connection according to Dr. Shetty:

•

Holistic View of Health: Dr. Shetty emphasizes that true health comes from spiritual, mental, physical, and emotional well-being1 . He suggests that the World Health Organization (WHO) focuses too heavily on medical intervention and neglects these other crucial aspects1 ....

•

Consciousness and Emotion: He posits that humans are unique due to their consciousness, which he defines as the ability to control their emotions4 . This control over emotion is not just a personal experience but has a tangible impact on the world around us4 .

•

Vibrational Influence: Dr. Shetty suggests that living beings with DNA emit electromagnetic fields that can influence the DNA of everything around them4 . He believes that the frequency of this electromagnetic field is determined by emotion4 .

•

DNA Expression: According to Dr. Shetty, the emotion one radiates (joy, anger, frustration) can influence how their DNA expresses itself and, subsequently, the DNA expression of those around them4 . Emitting joy creates a positive feedback loop, while negative emotions have the opposite effect4 . He simplifies this by stating that through the control of their emotion, human beings have the ability to control the expression of all the DNA around them4 .

•

Loss of Innate Ability: Dr. Shetty believes that humans are born with a great vibrational output and the ability to sense the vibrations of everything around them, but this ability is often suppressed as they grow older2 .

•

Impact of Modern Life: He contrasts the healthy lives of past generations, who lived simpler lives with strong emotional connections and a connection to nature, with today's technologically advanced but emotionally manipulated world where everything is in decay2 . He suggests that the lack of emotional control and manipulation by the world have negatively impacted overall health2 .

•

Redefining Health Organizations: Dr. Shetty believes that organizations like the WHO need to understand the entirety of what influences the human body, including the spiritual and emotional amplitudes, to be truly effective2 . He critiques the current capture of regulatory bodies by the allopathic pharmaceutical industry, leading to a disregard for other factors contributing to health2 .

In essence, Dr. Shetty argues for a fundamental shift in understanding health, recognizing the powerful role of consciousness, emotion, and spiritual well-being in influencing not only individual health but also the health of the community and potentially even the environment at a biological level2 .... He suggests that neglecting these aspects in favor of a purely physical, medical approach has contributed to the current health challenges1 .... You also mentioned in our previous conversation that Dr. Shetty's insights often include a spiritual point of view [Me].

his excerpt introduces a research study conducted in Seoul, South Korea, aiming to clarify the potential link between COVID-19 vaccination and psychiatric adverse events. Utilizing a large population-based cohort from the Korean National Health Insurance Service database, the study investigated the incidence of various psychiatric disorders following vaccination. The findings revealed a higher risk for conditions like depression, anxiety, and sleep disorders in vaccinated individuals, while surprisingly showing a lower incidence of schizophrenia and bipolar disorders compared to the unvaccinated group. Ultimately, this research suggests that while COVID-19 vaccines may elevate the risk of certain psychiatric issues, they might be associated with a reduced risk of others, warranting careful consideration for vulnerable populations. 

COVID-19 vaccination is a multifaceted issue discussed in the provided sources, encompassing its potential benefits, risks, and broader societal implications1 ....

Dr. Shankar Shetty, in "Health ALERT!", expresses significant concerns regarding COVID-19 vaccines. He believes his early comments about the vaccines, which he claims have been proven true, brought him controversy3 . Dr. Shetty states that mRNA technology, used in some COVID-19 vaccines, is fundamentally gene therapy rather than a traditional vaccine and was initially developed for cancer treatment in terminally ill patients, not for widespread use in healthy populations4 . He argues that the technology is flawed and questions why mRNA was used to induce spike protein production when injecting the spike protein directly with an adjuvant could have achieved a similar immune response with potentially fewer risks and unknown variables5 . Dr. Shetty also emphasizes the importance of risk-benefit analysis for different population cohorts, arguing that mass vaccination without proper risk stratification was illogical, especially for groups at low risk from COVID-196 . He suggests that the push for mRNA technology might be driven by financial interests, given the significant investments made7 ....

Conversely, the study "Psychiatric Adverse Events Following COVID-19 Vaccination" and the Slay News report on it provide evidence of specific psychiatric adverse events associated with COVID-19 vaccination. The South Korean study, involving over two million participants, found that COVID-19 vaccination was associated with a higher cumulative incidence of depression, anxiety, dissociative, stress-related, and somatoform disorders, sleep disorders, and sexual disorders at three months post-vaccination compared to the unvaccinated group9 .... Specifically, the hazard ratios indicated a statistically significant increased risk for depression (HR 1.683), anxiety, dissociative, stress-related, and somatoform disorders (HR 1.439), and sleep disorders (HR 1.934) following vaccination9 .... The study also noted a lower cumulative incidence and reduced risk of schizophrenia and bipolar disorder in the vaccinated group9 .... The researchers suggest that neuroinflammation caused by spike proteins may contribute to the occurrence of these psychiatric adverse events15 .... They recommend special caution when administering additional COVID-19 vaccinations to populations vulnerable to psychiatric AEs10 ....

The Slay News article ("Bombshell Study Confirms Covid ‘Vaccines’ Alter Human Behavior") highlights these findings, stating that the study "confirmed that the injections are altering human behavior" affecting emotions, personality, and mental well-being2 . It reports a 68.3% spike in depression, a 43.9% increase in anxiety disorders, and a 93.4% surge in sleep disorders according to the study18 . The article also mentions Dr. Mike Yeadon's claims, which are not part of the South Korean study, that the vaccines were intentionally designed to harm19 ....

It is important to note that while Dr. Shetty expresses strong opinions against the widespread use of mRNA vaccines and highlights potential harms3 ..., the South Korean study provides population-based evidence of increased risks for certain psychiatric adverse events following COVID-19 vaccination9 .... This study focused on a specific population in Seoul and measured outcomes within a three-month timeframe, noting that longer-term effects were not studied and that findings may not be generalizable globally due to ethnic and genetic factors13 .... The study also suggests a potential biological mechanism involving neuroinflammation due to spike proteins15 ....

Discuss Psychiatric adverse events.

The sources and our previous conversation highlight the issue of psychiatric adverse events following COVID-19 vaccination. A significant study conducted in Seoul, South Korea, and reported in both an academic paper and a news article, provides population-based evidence on this topic1 ....

The South Korean study, which included over two million participants, investigated the incidence of various psychiatric adverse events within three months after COVID-19 vaccination2 .... The study found that COVID-19 vaccination was associated with a higher cumulative incidence of several psychiatric disorders compared to the unvaccinated group2 .... These included:

•

Depression2 ...

•

Anxiety, dissociative, stress-related, and somatoform disorders2 ...

•

Sleep disorders2 ...

•

Sexual disorders4 ...

The hazard ratios (HRs) measured in the study indicated a statistically significant increased risk for2 ...:

•

Depression (HR 1.683 [1.520–1.863])2 ...

•

Anxiety, dissociative, stress-related, and somatoform disorders (HR 1.439 [1.322–1.568])2 ...

•

Sleep disorders (HR 1.934 [1.738–2.152])2 ...

Interestingly, the study also found a lower cumulative incidence and reduced risk of schizophrenia (HR 0.231 [0.164–0.326]) and bipolar disorder (HR 0.672 [0.470–0.962]) in the vaccinated group2 ....

The researchers of the South Korean study suggest that neuroinflammation caused by spike proteins may contribute to the occurrence of some psychiatric adverse events such as depression and anxiety, dissociative, stress-related, and somatoform disorders14 .... They emphasize the need for special caution when administering additional COVID-19 vaccinations to populations vulnerable to psychiatric AEs2 ....

The Slay News article ("Bombshell Study Confirms Covid ‘Vaccines’ Alter Human Behavior") reports on these findings, stating that the study "confirmed that the injections are altering human behavior" and affecting emotions, personality, and mental well-being3 .... It highlights significant increases in mental health disorders according to the study, including a 68.3% spike in depression, a 43.9% increase in anxiety disorders, and a 93.4% surge in sleep disorders5 .

In contrast, Dr. Shankar Shetty in "Health ALERT!" does not specifically discuss these psychiatric adverse events but expresses broader concerns about the risks of mRNA vaccines, which were among the types used in the South Korean vaccination campaign19 .... He characterizes mRNA technology as gene therapy with potential for harm and unknown long-term effects21 . Dr. Shetty argues that the use of this technology for mass vaccination of healthy individuals was questionable, especially considering the existence of other potential vaccine approaches22 .

It is important to note that the South Korean study provides epidemiological evidence of associations between COVID-19 vaccination and certain psychiatric adverse events within a specific timeframe and population23 . The study itself acknowledges limitations, including the use of claims data based on ICD codes, potential errors in classification, the exclusion of individuals under 20 years old, the follow-up period of only three months, and the potential for findings not to be generalizable globally23 .

Discuss Population-based study.

The "Psychiatric Adverse Events Following COVID-19 Vaccination" study is presented as a population-based cohort study conducted in Seoul, South Korea1 .... This type of study involves examining a large group of individuals defined by a particular characteristic (in this case, residents of Seoul) and following them over time to assess the occurrence of specific outcomes2 .... In this instance, the researchers recruited 50% of the Seoul-resident population randomly selected from the Korean National Health Insurance Service (KNHIS) claims database on January 1, 2021, totaling 2,027,353 participants2 .... These participants were then divided into vaccinated and non-vaccinated groups to investigate the incidence of psychiatric adverse events (AEs) after COVID-19 vaccination2 ....

The study assessed the cumulative incidences of various psychiatric AEs at one week, two weeks, one month, and three months after vaccination2 .... Key findings of this population-based study include:

•

A higher cumulative incidence of depression, anxiety, dissociative, stress-related, and somatoform disorders, sleep disorders, and sexual disorders was observed in the vaccinated group compared to the non-vaccinated group at three months following COVID-19 vaccination2 ....

•

Conversely, the study found a lower cumulative incidence of schizophrenia and bipolar disorders in the vaccinated group compared to the non-vaccinated group2 ....

•

Hazard ratios (HRs) indicated a statistically significant increased risk for depression (HR 1.683), anxiety, dissociative, stress-related, and somatoform disorders (HR 1.439), and sleep disorders (HR 1.934) after COVID-19 vaccination2 ....

•

The risk of schizophrenia (HR 0.231) and bipolar disorder (HR 0.672) was reduced in the vaccinated group2 ....

•

The researchers suggest that neuroinflammation caused by spike proteins may contribute to the increased occurrence of some psychiatric AEs such as depression and anxiety, dissociative, stress-related, and somatoform disorders10 .

The study also conducted subgroup analyses based on various factors like gender, age, vaccine type, and comorbidities11 .... Notably, they found that the highest risk of depression, anxiety, dissociative, stress-related, and somatoform disorders, and sleep disorders was associated with heterologous vaccination (receiving different types of vaccines for the first and second dose)13 ....

However, the authors of the population-based study also acknowledged several limitations:

•

The data was based on ICD-19 codes, which could lead to potential errors in diagnosis matching or misclassification15 .

•

There were differences in baseline characteristics between the vaccinated and unvaccinated groups, such as age and presence of comorbidities15 .... While statistical methods could be used to mitigate this, the availability of real-world data on psychiatric AEs following vaccination is still limited for more robust adjustments15 .

•

The study excluded individuals under 20 years old15 ..., and since the authorization of COVID-19 vaccination for adolescents in South Korea occurred later, the study couldn't assess vaccine-related AEs in this age group15 .

•

Psychiatric AEs were measured only up to three months following vaccination, and long-term effects were not studied15 .

•

The study was conducted in Seoul, South Korea, and the findings may not be generalizable to the entire global population due to potential ethnic and genetic variations in susceptibility to psychiatric disorders15 .

This population-based study provides evidence of an association between COVID-19 vaccination and an increased risk of certain psychiatric adverse events, a topic that Dr. Shetty also touches upon in "Health ALERT!" when discussing potential harms of the vaccines and vaccine injuries21 .... While Dr. Shetty's concerns are broader and include his clinical observations and opinions about the underlying technology and motivations behind mass vaccination23 ..., this study offers large-scale epidemiological data supporting a link between vaccination and specific mental health outcomes. The study's findings align with the increased reports of mental health disorders mentioned in the Slay News article6 , which directly references this population-based research to suggest that COVID mRNA vaccines may be responsible for rising depression rates10 .... It is important to consider the limitations of this study, as highlighted by its authors, when interpreting its findings and relating them to the broader discourse on COVID-19 vaccination.

Discuss Seoul, South Korea.

Our discussion of Seoul, South Korea, primarily revolves around the population-based cohort study that investigated psychiatric adverse events following COVID-19 vaccination in Seoul1 .... This study provides significant data and insights related to the impact of COVID-19 vaccines on mental health within this specific urban population.

Here are the key aspects of the study conducted in Seoul, South Korea, as detailed in the sources:

•

Large Population Cohort: The study involved a substantial cohort of 2,027,353 participants, representing 50% of the Seoul-resident population randomly selected from the Korean National Health Insurance Service (KNHIS) claims database on January 1, 20212 ....

•

Study Period: The researchers analyzed diagnostic records up to December 31, 2021, assessing psychiatric adverse events (AEs) at one week, two weeks, one month, and three months after COVID-19 vaccination2 ....

•

Vaccination Groups: The participants were divided into vaccinated and non-vaccinated groups to compare the cumulative incidences and hazard ratios of various psychiatric disorders2 .... The study focused on individuals who received two doses of the COVID-19 vaccine for the primary analysis of the vaccinated group10 .

•

Findings on Psychiatric AEs: The study found a higher cumulative incidence in the vaccinated group for:

◦

Depression

◦

Anxiety, dissociative, stress-related, and somatoform disorders

◦

Sleep disorders

◦

Sexual disorders2 ...

•

Increased Risks (Hazard Ratios): The hazard ratios indicated statistically significant increased risks in the vaccinated population for:

◦

Depression (HR 1.683)

◦

Anxiety, dissociative, stress-related, and somatoform disorders (HR 1.439)

◦

Sleep disorders (HR 1.934)2 ...

•

Lower Incidence and Risk: Conversely, the study observed a lower cumulative incidence and reduced risk of schizophrenia (HR 0.231) and bipolar disorder (HR 0.672) in the vaccinated group2 ....

•

Vaccine Types: The researchers also analyzed the risks of psychiatric AEs according to different COVID-19 vaccine types (mRNA-based, cDNA-based, and heterologous vaccination)13 .... They found that heterologous vaccination often showed the highest risks for depression, anxiety, dissociative, stress-related, and somatoform disorders, and sleep disorders17 ....

•

Proposed Mechanism: The study suggests that neuroinflammation caused by spike proteins may contribute to the occurrence of some psychiatric AEs such as depression and anxiety, dissociative, stress-related, and somatoform disorders20 ....

•

Recommendations: Based on their findings, the researchers recommend special cautions when administering additional COVID-19 vaccinations to populations vulnerable to psychiatric AEs4 ....

•

Limitations: The study acknowledges several limitations, including the use of claims data, the exclusion of individuals under 20 years old, the three-month follow-up period, and the potential for findings not to be generalizable globally due to ethnic and genetic backgrounds24 .

The Slay News article highlights this study, emphasizing its "bombshell" findings that COVID-19 "vaccines" alter human behavior based on the increased reports of psychiatric manifestations in the vaccinated population in Seoul8 ....

In summary, Seoul, South Korea, was the location of a significant population-based study that provided evidence for specific psychiatric adverse events following COVID-19 vaccination, contributing valuable data to the understanding of vaccine-related mental health outcomes2 ....

Discuss Increased risks disorders.

Based on the South Korean population-based cohort study, COVID-19 vaccination was associated with increased risks for several psychiatric disorders1 .... These findings were observed within the three-month period following vaccination compared to the non-vaccinated group1 ....

The specific psychiatric disorders that showed a statistically significant increased cumulative incidence and risk after COVID-19 vaccination include1 ...:

•

Depression: The hazard ratio (HR) was 1.683 with a 95% confidence interval (CI) of [1.520–1.863]1 ....

•

Anxiety, dissociative, stress-related, and somatoform disorders: The HR was 1.439 with a 95% CI of [1.322–1.568]1 ....

•

Sleep disorders: The HR was 1.934 with a 95% CI of [1.738–2.152]1 ....

•

Sexual disorders: The HR was 6.556 with a 95% CI of [0.890–48.296], although the confidence interval is quite wide, suggesting less precision in this estimate2 .

The researchers of this study suggest that neuroinflammation caused by spike proteins may contribute to the increased occurrence of some of these psychiatric adverse events, particularly depression and anxiety, dissociative, stress-related, and somatoform disorders5 ....

Interestingly, the study also found that the highest risk of depression, anxiety, dissociative, stress-related, and somatoform disorders, and sleep disorders was significantly observed in the case of heterologous vaccination (receiving different types of vaccines for the first and second dose)7 .... For example, the highest cumulative incidence of depression at three months was seen in heterologous vaccination (23.31 per 10,000) compared to only mRNA or only cDNA vaccination7 . Similarly, the incidence of anxiety, dissociative, stress-related, and somatoform disorders was highest in heterologous vaccination (31.75 per 10,000)7 . Sleep disorders also showed a high level in both only cDNA vaccination (34.78 per 10,000) and heterologous vaccination (32.09 per 10,000)7 .

These findings from the population-based study align with the report in the Slay News article, which highlights the study's confirmation that COVID-19 "vaccines" may alter human behavior and increase mental health disorders10 .... The article specifically mentions a 68.3% spike in depression, a 43.9% increase in anxiety disorders, and a 93.4% surge in sleep disorders, figures derived from the hazard ratios reported in the South Korean study11 .

While Dr. Shetty in "Health ALERT!" does not directly address these specific psychiatric disorders in detail, his broader concerns about the potential harms and unknown consequences of mRNA vaccines resonate with the findings of increased risks for these mental health conditions following vaccination12 .... He emphasizes that the risk-benefit analysis should have been carefully considered for different populations before mass vaccination15 .

It is important to remember the limitations of the South Korean study, including the three-month follow-up period and the specific population studied, as highlighted in our previous discussion16 . However, this population-based evidence provides a significant insight into the potential increased risks of certain psychiatric disorders following COVID-19 vaccination.

This source presents a population-based cohort study conducted in Seoul, South Korea, which investigated the psychiatric adverse events (AEs) following COVID-19 vaccination. Researchers analyzed health insurance claims data from over two million individuals, comparing the incidence of various psychiatric disorders between vaccinated and unvaccinated groups over a three-month period. The study's key findings reveal that COVID-19 vaccination was associated with an increased risk of certain conditions like depression, anxiety, and sleep disorders, while surprisingly showing a decreased risk for schizophrenia and bipolar disorder. Furthermore, the study explored these risks in relation to different vaccine types and various demographic factors, emphasizing the complex interplay between vaccination and mental health outcomes.

The researchers suggest that neuroinflammation caused by spike proteins may contribute to the increased occurrence of some psychiatric AEs such as depression and anxiety, dissociative, stress-related, and somatoform disorders10 .

The study also conducted subgroup analyses based on various factors like gender, age, vaccine type, and comorbidities11 .... Notably, they found that the highest risk of depression, anxiety, dissociative, stress-related, and somatoform disorders, and sleep disorders was associated with heterologous vaccination (receiving different types of vaccines for the first and second dose)13 ....

However, the authors of the population-based study also acknowledged several limitations:

•

The data was based on ICD-19 codes, which could lead to potential errors in diagnosis matching or misclassification15 .

•

There were differences in baseline characteristics between the vaccinated and unvaccinated groups, such as age and presence of comorbidities15 .... While statistical methods could be used to mitigate this, the availability of real-world data on psychiatric AEs following vaccination is still limited for more robust adjustments15 .

•

The study excluded individuals under 20 years old15 ..., and since the authorization of COVID-19 vaccination for adolescents in South Korea occurred later, the study couldn't assess vaccine-related AEs in this age group15 .

•

Psychiatric AEs were measured only up to three months following vaccination, and long-term effects were not studied15 .

•

The study was conducted in Seoul, South Korea, and the findings may not be generalizable to the entire global population due to potential ethnic and genetic variations in susceptibility to psychiatric disorders15 .

This population-based study provides evidence of an association between COVID-19 vaccination and an increased risk of certain psychiatric adverse events, a topic that Dr. Shetty also touches upon in "Health ALERT!" when discussing potential harms of the vaccines and vaccine injuries21 .... While Dr. Shetty's concerns are broader and include his clinical observations and opinions about the underlying technology and motivations behind mass vaccination23 ..., this study offers large-scale epidemiological data supporting a link between vaccination and specific mental health outcomes. The study's findings align with the increased reports of mental health disorders mentioned in the Slay News article6 , which directly references this population-based research to suggest that COVID mRNA vaccines may be responsible for rising depression rates10 .... It is important to consider the limitations of this study, as highlighted by its authors, when interpreting its findings and relating them to the broader discourse on COVID-19 vaccination.

Discuss Risk assessment.

Risk assessment is a crucial aspect discussed in the context of COVID-19 vaccination within the provided sources. The information highlights the need for careful consideration of potential benefits versus risks, especially for different population groups.

Dr. Shankar Shetty strongly emphasizes the importance of individualized risk-benefit analysis1 . He argues that pushing COVID-19 vaccines onto all population groups without proper risk stratification was "a very illogical thing to do"1 . Dr. Shetty points out that the benefits and risks of vaccination would vary significantly based on factors such as age, pre-existing conditions, and individual risk of severe illness from COVID-191 . He uses the analogy of crossing a road, where the risk differs for individuals with different physical conditions, to illustrate that a one-size-fits-all approach to vaccination is inappropriate, particularly with a novel technology like mRNA vaccines that have "so many variables and a variable unknown outcome"1 . Dr. Shetty suggests that while vaccination might be warranted for high-risk individuals like an 80-year-old with comorbidities, it was not justified for young, healthy individuals, especially children, who had minimal risk from COVID-191 .

The South Korean study on psychiatric adverse events following COVID-19 vaccination also underscores the importance of risk assessment, particularly in identifying populations vulnerable to psychiatric AEs2 .... The study found a significantly higher incidence of depression, anxiety, dissociative, stress-related, and somatoform disorders, sleep disorders, and sexual disorders in the vaccinated group compared to the unvaccinated group3 .... Based on these findings, the researchers conclude that "special cautions are necessary for administering additional COVID-19 vaccinations to populations vulnerable to psychiatric AEs"2 .... This recommendation directly calls for a risk assessment approach that identifies and protects individuals who may be at a higher risk of experiencing these specific psychiatric adverse events following vaccination. The study's subgroup analysis also touched upon factors like age and pre-existing conditions (using the Charlson’s comorbidity index - CCI) that might influence the risk of certain psychiatric AEs7 .

In summary, both Dr. Shetty's commentary and the South Korean study highlight the necessity of a nuanced approach to COVID-19 vaccination that involves careful risk assessment. Dr. Shetty advocates for individualized risk-benefit analysis based on factors affecting an individual's likelihood of benefit and potential harm1 . The South Korean study provides evidence of increased risks for specific psychiatric adverse events and emphasizes the need for special caution and presumably a targeted risk assessment for vulnerable populations when considering further vaccinations2 ....

Discuss Mental health.

The topic of mental health is significantly addressed in the provided sources, particularly concerning the potential impact of COVID-19 vaccination.

The population-based cohort study conducted in Seoul, South Korea, titled "Psychiatric Adverse Events Following COVID-19 Vaccination," provides substantial data on this issue1 .... This study, involving over two million participants, investigated the occurrence of various psychiatric adverse events (AEs) within three months after COVID-19 vaccination compared to an unvaccinated group2 .... The key findings related to mental health include:

•

A higher cumulative incidence of several psychiatric disorders in the vaccinated group2 .... Specifically, at three months post-vaccination, the incidence of depression, anxiety, dissociative, stress-related, and somatoform disorders, sleep disorders, and sexual disorders was higher in the vaccinated population2 ....

•

Increased risks of certain mental health conditions following vaccination. The hazard ratios (HRs) indicated a statistically significant increased risk for:

◦

Depression (HR 1.683 [1.520–1.863])2 ...

◦

Anxiety, dissociative, stress-related, and somatoform disorders (HR 1.439 [1.322–1.568])2 ...

◦

Sleep disorders (HR 1.934 [1.738–2.152])2 ...

•

Interestingly, the study also found a lower cumulative incidence and reduced risk of schizophrenia (HR 0.231 [0.164–0.326]) and bipolar disorder (HR 0.672 [0.470–0.962]) in the vaccinated group2 ....

•

The researchers suggest a potential mechanism involving neuroinflammation caused by spike proteins contributing to the occurrence of some psychiatric AEs such as depression and anxiety, dissociative, stress-related, and somatoform disorders6 .... They emphasize the need for caution when administering additional COVID-19 vaccinations to individuals vulnerable to psychiatric AEs2 ....

•

Subgroup analyses indicated that the highest risk of depression, anxiety, dissociative, stress-related, and somatoform disorders, and sleep disorders was associated with heterologous vaccination10 ....

The Slay News article ("Bombshell Study Confirms Covid ‘Vaccines’ Alter Human Behavior") reports on these findings, emphasizing that the study "confirmed that the injections are altering human behavior" and affecting emotions, personality, and mental well-being13 .... It highlights significant increases in mental health disorders based on the study's data, including a 68.3% spike in depression, a 43.9% increase in anxiety disorders, and a 93.4% surge in sleep disorders15 .

In "Health ALERT!", Dr. Shankar Shetty provides a broader perspective on mental health, though not directly focused on the specific psychiatric adverse events identified in the South Korean study. He speaks about the spiritual and emotional aspects of health, emphasizing the impact of emotions on DNA expression and overall well-being16 . Dr. Shetty also touches upon the fear and division that he believes were sown during the pandemic, potentially affecting the collective emotional and mental state17 . He suggests that a holistic view of health, encompassing spiritual, mental, physical, and emotional well-being, is crucial17 ....

Our previous discussions have established that the South Korean study is a population-based cohort study, meaning it examines a large population over time to identify associations between vaccination and health outcomes, including mental health [Me, You]. We also discussed the specific psychiatric adverse events identified in the study, including depression, anxiety disorders, and sleep disorders, and the study's suggestion of neuroinflammation as a potential underlying mechanism [Me, You].

In summary, the sources highlight a potential link between COVID-19 vaccination and an increased risk of certain mental health disorders, supported by population-based data. The South Korean study provides specific evidence of elevated risks for depression, anxiety-related disorders, and sleep disorders following vaccination. While Dr. Shetty's perspective on mental health is more holistic, encompassing emotional and spiritual factors, both the empirical study and his insights underscore the importance of considering the broader impacts of the pandemic and its interventions on mental well-being. The study's findings suggest a need for further investigation into the mechanisms behind these associations and for careful monitoring of mental health in vaccinated populations.

Describe the methodology of the Seoul psychiatric AE study.

Bombshell Study Confirms Covid ‘Vaccines’ Alter Human Behavior

By Frank Bergman | Dec. 7th, 2024 

his article from slaynews.com reports on a new study from South Korean researchers published in Nature Journal that allegedly found a link between Covid-19 mRNA vaccines and altered human behavior. The study, involving over two million participants, suggests that vaccination is associated with increases in negative emotions, personality changes, and mental health disorders such as depression, anxiety, and sleep disturbances. The researchers propose that neuroinflammation caused by the vaccine's spike protein could be a contributing factor to these "psychiatric manifestations. 

Based on the sources, a discussion about Covid vaccines encompasses several key aspects: their rapid development, their intended benefits, reported adverse events (both physical and psychiatric), controversies surrounding their safety and efficacy, and alternative viewpoints on their role and impact.

The rapid development of COVID-19 vaccines, including mRNA-based and viral vector vaccines, was aimed at overcoming the pandemic by reducing severity and mortality1 .... However, the sources also highlight emerging issues related to these vaccines, such as post-vaccination adverse events (AEs)1 ....

One significant area of concern raised in the sources is the potential for psychiatric adverse events following COVID-19 vaccination. A population-based cohort study in Seoul, South Korea, involving over two million participants, investigated these effects3 .... This study, published in Nature Journal, found that the cumulative incidence of depression, anxiety, dissociative, stress-related, and somatoform disorders, sleep disorders, and sexual disorders at three months following COVID-19 vaccination were higher in the vaccination group than in the non-vaccinated group4 .... Specifically, the study reported increased risks after vaccination for depression (HR [95% CI] = 1.683 [1.520–1.863]), anxiety, dissociative, stress-related, and somatoform disorders (HR [95% CI] = 1.439 [1.322–1.568]), and sleep disorders (HR [95% CI] = 1.934 [1.738–2.152])4 .... The slaynews.com article, reporting on the same study, highlighted significant spikes in mental health disorders, including a 68.3% spike in depression, a 43.9% increase in anxiety disorders, and a 93.4% surge in sleep disorders8 . The South Korean study also indicated that heterologous vaccination (receiving different types of vaccines for the first and second dose) showed the highest risk for depression, anxiety, dissociative, stress-related, and somatoform disorders, and sleep disorders13 .... The researchers of the South Korean study suggest that neuroinflammation caused by spike proteins may contribute to these psychiatric AEs15 .... They recommend special caution when administering additional COVID-19 vaccinations to populations vulnerable to psychiatric AEs6 ....

Conversely, the same South Korean study found that schizophrenia and bipolar disorders showed lower cumulative incidence in the vaccination group than in the non-vaccinated group, with statistically significant hazard ratios indicating reduced risks4 ....

Dr. Shankar Shetty, in the "Health ALERT!" audio, also raises concerns about the Covid vaccines, drawing from his clinical experience in South Africa19 .... He believes that his early observations about the virus and his comments on the vaccines have been proven true, although they have led to controversy and challenges to his credibility20 .... Dr. Shetty postulates that the spike protein is pathogenic and expressed concerns early on about the potential harms and the illogic of mandating vaccines with individual benefits under the guise of group effect22 . He views mRNA technology, used in some Covid vaccines, as gene therapy that was initially intended for terminally ill cancer patients and is not appropriately suited for mass vaccination of healthy individuals23 .... He suggests that injecting the spike protein directly with an adjuvant would have been a more stable and logical approach to induce an immune response24 .

Dr. Shetty also criticizes the risk-benefit analysis applied to Covid vaccination programs, arguing that a one-size-fits-all approach was illogical given the varying risks and benefits across different age groups and individuals with comorbidities25 .

Furthermore, Dr. Shetty touches upon the potential for bioengineering to cause significant harm, suggesting that humanity might be close to an extinction-level event after vaccinating the planet24 . He also discusses the potential for Covid and/or the vaccines to cause immune dysregulation, leading to prolonged illness and complications26 .... He recounts his own severe reactions to Omicron, emphasizing that it was the immune dysregulation, often occurring around the eighth day of illness, that caused significant problems28 .... He believes the initial approach to managing Covid was fundamentally flawed and that the vaccines have altered people's immunity, leading to new and poorly understood pathologies27 .

In the context of global health governance, Dr. Shetty expresses concerns about the World Health Organization (WHO), suggesting it has been corrupted by false information and influenced by the pharmaceutical industry and affluent members for monetary gain30 .... He advocates for a redefinition of WHO's role to prioritize basic health needs and be driven by the individual needs of countries, rather than primarily focusing on medical interventions dictated by powerful interests32 ....

Dr. Shetty's perspective aligns with concerns about the safety and long-term effects of Covid vaccines, suggesting potential links to altered immunity and various health issues. The South Korean study provides population-based evidence of increased risks for certain psychiatric disorders following vaccination, supporting some of the broader concerns raised by Dr. Shetty regarding potential adverse impacts beyond the intended immunological response.

Discuss Alter human behavior.

A new study from South Korea, published in the journal Nature, has indicated that COVID-19 vaccines may alter human behavior1 .... This "bombshell study" with over 2 million participants found that people experienced changes in their emotions, personalities, feelings, fears, stress levels, mental well-being, and general outlook after receiving the vaccine1 .

The researchers, led by Professor Hong Jin Kim, confirmed an increase in global reports of major personality and behavioral changes in the past four years that may be linked to these injections2 . The study suggests that the "vaccines" cause "psychiatric manifestations" in vaccinated individuals, leading to a rise in mental health disorders3 ....

Key findings of the study include:

•

A 68.3% spike in depression4 .

•

A 43.9% increase in anxiety disorders4 .

•

A 93.4% surge in sleep disorders4 .

The study, which recruited 50% of the Seoul-resident population from the Korean National Health Insurance Service (KNHIS) claims database, measured the cumulative incidences of psychiatric adverse events (AEs) up to three months after vaccination4 .... Hazard ratios (HRs) were also measured for the vaccinated population5 .

The researchers propose that neuroinflammation caused by spike proteins may contribute to these psychiatric AEs, such as depression, anxiety, dissociative, stress-related, and somatoform disorders6 . This aligns with rising depression rates in the U.S. since 2020/2021, suggesting that COVID mRNA "vaccines" could be a contributing factor6 ....

The original research paper, "Psychiatric Adverse Events Following COVID-19 Vaccination: A Population-based Cohort Study in Seoul, South Korea," provides further details on these findings8 .... This study indeed found that the cumulative incidence of depression, anxiety, dissociative, stress-related, and somatoform disorders, sleep disorders, and sexual disorders at three months following COVID-19 vaccination were higher in the vaccinated group compared to the non-vaccinated group9 ....

Specifically, the hazard ratios (HRs) indicated increased risks for:

•

Depression (HR 1.683)9 ....

•

Anxiety, dissociative, stress-related, and somatoform disorders (HR 1.439)9 ....

•

Sleep disorders (HR 1.934)9 ....

•

Sexual disorders (HR 6.556)39 .

The study also noted that these increased risks were highest in the case of heterogeneous vaccination (receiving different types of vaccines for the first and second dose) for depression, anxiety, dissociative, stress-related, and somatoform disorders, and sleep disorders41 ....

The researchers concluded that COVID-19 vaccination differentially affects the occurrence of psychiatric disorders, increasing the risk of neurosis-related disorders while decreasing the incidence and risk of psychosis-related disorders like schizophrenia and bipolar disorder44 .... They emphasize the need for close observation and special caution when administering additional COVID-19 vaccinations, especially to populations vulnerable to psychiatric AEs10 ....

It is important to note that while this study suggests a correlation between COVID-19 vaccination and certain psychiatric adverse events, further research is needed to fully understand the underlying mechanisms and long-term effects47 ....

Discuss Psychiatric manifestations.

Based on the sources, the topic of psychiatric manifestations is primarily discussed in the context of adverse events following COVID-19 vaccination, as investigated in a population-based cohort study in Seoul, South Korea1 .... This study, involving over 2 million participants, found a correlation between COVID-19 vaccination and an increased risk of certain psychiatric disorders2 ....

Here's a breakdown of the psychiatric manifestations discussed in the sources:

•

Increased Risk of Certain Disorders: The study found that COVID-19 vaccination was associated with a higher cumulative incidence and increased hazard ratios (HRs) for several psychiatric adverse events (AEs)2 ...:

◦

Depression: The HR for depression was 1.6832 .... The cumulative incidence at three months was higher in the vaccinated group (18.30 per 10,000) compared to the non-vaccinated group (14.24 per 10,000)2 .... Slay News reports a 68.3% spike in depression10 .

◦

Anxiety, Dissociative, Stress-related, and Somatoform Disorders: The HR for this combined category was 1.4392 .... The cumulative incidence at three months was 28.41 per 10,000 in the vaccinated group and 20.27 per 10,000 in the non-vaccinated group2 .... Slay News mentions a 43.9% increase in anxiety disorders10 .

◦

Sleep Disorders: The HR for sleep disorders was 1.9342 .... The cumulative incidence at three months was 28.85 per 10,000 in the vaccinated group, significantly higher than the 12.19 per 10,000 in the non-vaccinated group2 .... Slay News reports a 93.4% surge in sleep disorders10 .

◦

Sexual Disorders: The HR for sexual disorders was 6.556, though the cumulative incidence at three months was low in both groups, with a slightly higher incidence in the vaccinated group (0.27 per 10,000 vs 0.03 per 10,000)2 ....

•

Decreased Risk of Other Disorders: Conversely, the study indicated a lower cumulative incidence and reduced hazard ratios for:

◦

Schizophrenia: The HR for schizophrenia was 0.2312 .... The cumulative incidence at three months was significantly lower in the vaccinated group (0.51 per 10,000) compared to the non-vaccinated group (1.98 per 10,000)2 ....

◦

Bipolar Disorder: The HR for bipolar disorder was 0.6722 .... The cumulative incidence at three months was also lower in the vaccinated group (0.79 per 10,000) compared to the non-vaccinated group (1.39 per 10,000)2 ....

•

No Significant Difference for Eating Disorders: The cumulative incidence of eating disorders at three months did not show a statistically significant difference between the vaccinated and non-vaccinated groups8 .

•

Potential Mechanism: The researchers suggest that neuroinflammation caused by spike proteins may contribute to the occurrence of some psychiatric AEs such as depression, anxiety, dissociative, stress-related, and somatoform disorders11 .... They also explored potential gene-related pathways that might be involved in these differential effects13 .

•

Influence of Vaccine Type: The study further analyzed the risks based on the type of COVID-19 vaccine received. They found that the psychiatric disorders with increased risks (depression, anxiety, dissociative, stress-related, and somatoform disorders, and sleep disorders) showed the highest risk in the case of heterogeneous vaccination (receiving different types of vaccines for the first and second dose)14 .... Notably, the cumulative incidence of depression at three months was lower in those who received only cDNA vaccines compared to the non-vaccinated group16 . The risk of bipolar disorder was significantly decreased only in the case of only cDNA vaccination14 ....

•

Vulnerable Populations: The study highlights that special caution is necessary when administering additional COVID-19 vaccinations to populations vulnerable to psychiatric AEs4 ....

•

Context of the Pandemic: The study acknowledges that the COVID-19 pandemic itself, with factors like lockdown and social distancing, had a detrimental effect on mental health17 .... However, this new research suggests that the vaccines themselves may also be a contributing factor to the rise in certain mental health disorders12 ....

Dr. Shetty, in the "Health ALERT!" excerpts, discusses vaccine injuries more broadly20 ... and mentions the potential for spike protein to cause harm21 ..., but he does not specifically detail psychiatric manifestations in the same way as the South Korean study. He does note the emotional turmoil and fear caused during the pandemic25 , which could be linked to the anxiety and stress-related disorders identified in the study.

The Slay News article emphasizes the "bombshell" nature of the South Korean study, highlighting the confirmation that COVID "vaccines" are altering human behavior by affecting emotions, personalities, feelings, fears, stress levels, mental well-being, and general outlook26 .... It cites the study's findings on the significant increases in depression, anxiety disorders, and sleep disorders10 .

In conclusion, the primary information regarding psychiatric manifestations comes from the South Korean population-based study, which indicates an increased risk of depression, anxiety, dissociative, stress-related, somatoform, and sleep disorders following COVID-19 vaccination, while showing a decreased risk of schizophrenia and bipolar disorder. These findings suggest a complex relationship between COVID-19 vaccination and mental health, warranting further investigation7 .

Discuss Spike protein.

The spike protein is a central element in the discussion surrounding COVID-19 and the vaccines developed to combat it. According to the sources and our conversation history, the spike protein is implicated in both the pathology of the virus and the potential adverse events associated with vaccination.

Dr. Shankar Shetty, drawing from his clinical experience, stated early in 2021 that he realized the spike protein is pathogenic1 . This understanding formed the basis of his concerns regarding the safety and potential harms of the COVID-19 vaccines, which are designed to induce an immune response against this very protein1 . He argued that the goal of vaccination was to get the body to develop anti-spike protein antibodies2 . However, Dr. Shetty suggested that this could have been achieved more directly and safely by simply injecting the spike protein with an adjuvant, rather than using mRNA technology to instruct the body's cells to produce the spike protein2 . He raised concerns about the unknown variables associated with the mRNA approach, such as dosage, persistence, and biodistribution, and argued that a direct injection of the protein would be a more stable product without the risk of contamination2 .

The South Korean population-based cohort study, as reported in the Nature journal and slaynews.com, also points to the significant role of the spike protein in potential adverse events following vaccination. The study suggests that neuroinflammation caused by spike proteins may contribute to the occurrence of several psychiatric adverse events, including depression, anxiety, dissociative disorders, stress-related disorders, and somatoform disorders3 .... The researchers propose that this neuroinflammation is a potential mechanism through which the vaccines might be altering human behavior and contributing to a rise in mental health disorders3 .

Furthermore, the South Korean study mentions the possibility of an autoimmune response caused by the spike protein and the viral protein encoded in the vaccine as a potential factor in the manifestation of schizophrenia5 . While the study found a lower incidence of schizophrenia in the vaccinated group overall, this suggests a complex interplay where the immune response to the spike protein could have varied effects on different psychiatric conditions.

In supporting the potential role of the spike protein, the South Korean study's supplementary analysis using gene set enrichment analysis found that schizophrenia-related genes share a pathway with bile acid metabolism6 . Notably, bile acids are suggested to prevent the binding of the spike protein with the ACE2 receptor and modulate ACE2 expression, hinting at a protective role that could be linked to the reduced schizophrenia risk observed with vaccination6 . Conversely, for depression, an increased risk post-vaccination was associated with the deep interaction of spike protein-related factors such as the NLRP3 inflammasome6 .

In summary, the spike protein is a key element in understanding both the intended immune response from COVID-19 vaccines and the potential for adverse events. Dr. Shetty views it as inherently pathogenic and questioned the necessity of using mRNA to produce it in the body. The South Korean study provides evidence linking the spike protein, potentially through neuroinflammation and autoimmune responses, to an increased risk of certain psychiatric disorders following vaccination. These findings underscore the need for ongoing research into the multifaceted role of the spike protein in the context of both SARS-CoV-2 infection and vaccination.

Discuss Dr. Mike Yeadon.

Dr. Mike Yeadon is mentioned in the sources in the context of his views on COVID-19 vaccines.

•

According to a review by Dr. Mike Yeadon, cited in the excerpts from Global Research1 , Michel Chossudovsky's book provides an in-depth resource offering a wider perspective on COVID-19, contextualizing it within geopolitics1 .

•

The Slay News article refers to Dr. Mike Yeadon as the former vice president of Pfizer who has blown the whistle with an "explosive testimony" warning the public that COVID "vaccines" were "designed intentionally to harm the people who received them"2 .

•

The article further quotes Dr. Yeadon stating that the COVID mRNA shots are "masquerading as vaccines"2 .

•

Dr. Yeadon issued this statement in a video testimony for the Northern Ireland Parliament, which he later released online3 .

•

In his statement, Dr. Yeadon claims to be "probably the most qualified former pharmaceutical company researcher executive in the world speaking out on this matter," given his career in designing molecules for new potential medicines4 .

•

He expresses his "shocking judgment" that has been reinforced over the past almost four years, that the "material masquerading as 'vaccines' were designed intentionally to harm recipients4 .

•

Dr. Yeadon also mentions having suggestions for what can be done together to fight against what he considers an ongoing "global crime"5 .

It's important to note that Dr. Yeadon's claims about the intentional harm caused by COVID-19 vaccines are not supported by the scientific consensus presented in the study on psychiatric adverse events following COVID-19 vaccination1 .... While that study did find an association between vaccination and an increased risk of certain psychiatric disorders, it did not conclude that the vaccines were intentionally designed to cause harm. Instead, the study discusses potential mechanisms such as neuroinflammation due to spike proteins46 ....
