COVID-19 Mass Vaccination: Unethical Medical Experimentation!

OVERVIEW

This Op-ed makes the case that we are participating in the largest unethical medical experiment in human history, where the participants did not provide their informed consent.  Billions of people globally have been coerced by either misleading propaganda or denial of services (e.g., travel, access to eateries, access to schools, etc.), or both, to participate in a massive global gain-of-function experiment.  This experiment consists of mass vaccination during a pandemic, which places large amounts of immune selection pressure upon the virus and forces it to mutate to higher function in order to survive.  Under this virus Survival of the Fittest scenario, the virus will be forced to increase its infectiousness/transmissibility or its virulence/lethality, or some combination of the two, thereby increasing its function.

The resulting continuous gain-of-function/mutation provides a positive feedback loop, where new COVID-19 vaccines that are distributed periodically (e.g., boosters) cause further immune selection pressure, resulting in more mutations and gain-of-function and the need for more vaccines.  The COVID-19 vaccines being rolled out were not tested adequately at the start (especially for long-term adverse effects), and are increasingly tested less and less as more vaccines are rolled out.  Further, the major COVID-19 vaccines distributed (in the USA and some other countries) use an mRNA platform, whose fundamental mode of operation results in the expression of a foreign protein on the surface of a once-healthy self-cell anywhere in the body, and causes the innate immune system to attack and destroy that cell, a pseudo-autoimmune reaction.  This causes the destruction of organs and tissues throughout the body (as shown by autopsy results), and will eventually reduce lifespan of anyone who receives a functional dose.

It is a medical experiment because we do not know the full extent of the adverse health effects that will result from this mass vaccination of a global population.  It is an unethical medical experiment because it violates the key ethical medical experiment requirement of ‘informed consent’ from the participants.

This Op-ed will provide some 1) background on the requirements for ethical medical research/experimentation and 2) examples of how those requirements have been violated in the past century.  It places the present mass vaccination during the COVID-19 pandemic in the context of these other examples of unethical medical experiments.

BACKGROUND

Definitions

• Unethical Research

One of the better definitions for unethical research can be found here.

“These definitions of ‘unethical’ research encompass a broad spectrum of actions. Much reporting of ‘unethical’ medical research in myriad media tends to focus on one aspect only: biomedical experiments performed on subjects who did not give ‘informed consent’. The classic example reflects the experiments performed on concentration camp inmates by the Nazi-regime doctors during WWII, and the lesser-known experiments performed by their Japanese counterparts during WWII.  These experiments were certainly horrific, but not unique. The test subjects in these experiments were neither informed about the nature and consequences of these experiments, nor did they give consent.”

• Informed Consent

A comprehensive discussion of the importance of ‘informed consent’ in medical experimentation was presented in a journal Special Issue.  An excellent overview and rationale for informed consent in human experiments is shown in the following quote (obtained from a booklet titled Informed Consent in Human Subjects Research), prepared by the Office for Protection of Research Subjects, University of Southern California.

“Informed Consent is a voluntary agreement to participate in research.  It is not merely a form that is signed but is a process, in which the subject has an understanding of the research and its risks.  Informed consent is essential before enrolling a participant and ongoing once enrolled.  Informed Consent must be obtained for all types of human subjects’ research including; diagnostic, therapeutic, interventional, social and behavioral studies, and for research conducted domestically or abroad.  Obtaining consent involves informing the subject about his or her rights, the purpose of the study, the procedures to be undergone, and the potential risks and benefits of participation. Subjects in the study must participate willingly.  Vulnerable populations (i.e., prisoners, children, pregnant women, etc.) must receive extra protections. The legal rights of subjects may not be waived and subjects may not be asked to release or appear to release the investigator, the sponsor, the institution or its agents from liability for negligence.”

There are three important concepts in this definition: research, informed, and consent.

Research

What is a research experiment?  According to myriad Web sources, an experiment is a set of actions undertaken to

• make a discovery or
• test a hypothesis or
• demonstrate a known fact.

The COVID-19 injections have been sold to the public as a proof-of-principle demonstration of a safe and effective preventative of viral disease and viral transmission.  After ~2.5 years of injections, there is no evidence of safety or efficacy; the evidence points in the opposite direction.  Further, the mass distribution of these injections can be viewed as a research experiment with the goal of identifying mid- and long-term adverse effects (which were not identified in the very short-term clinical trials).  Finally, as stated initially, it has become a de facto gain-of-function experiment, where mass vaccination during a pandemic increases immune selection pressure and results in mutations where increased infectiousness/transmissibility and/or increased virulence/lethality will result.

Informed

There is much information now available in the open literature detailing the adverse health effects of COVID-19 vaccinations.  These adverse effects reflect the role of the COVID-19 vaccine both as a promotor/accelerator and/or initiator of myriad biomedical abnormalities and serious diseases.  However, the vast public is not informed (or is misinformed) of these adverse health effects by the:

• Developers of the vaccines,
• Mainstream media,
• Government regulators of these vaccines,
• Federal, State, and Local politicians who mandate implementation of these vaccines,
• Medical personnel who recommend and administer these vaccines, and
• University administrators who mandate these vaccines for students to attend classes.

These stakeholders 1) do not inform the public of the demonstrated adverse effects of COVID-19 vaccines and, in many cases, 2) misinform the public that COVID-19 vaccines are safe and effective.

Consent

Many segments of the public did provide consent to receive the COVID-19 vaccines because of its perceived benefits to them.  A small amount of this consent may be informed, and the providers of this consent may be gambling that they can escape the adverse health effects.  Most of the consent is probably not informed, since most people will not do the independent research required to gather in the relevant information on adverse health effects of the vaccines, but will rely on the government’s and mainstream media’s misleading assurances that COVID-19 vaccines are safe and effective.

However, other segments of the public did not provide uncoerced consent to receive these vaccines.  They were vaccinated in order to keep their jobs, or travel, or attend school, or eat in restaurants, or go to mass gatherings, etc.  They may also have gambled that the risks of vaccination were low compared to the value of access to the above necessities and luxuries, based on misleading propaganda by the vaccine promoters about the risk levels of the vaccines.

Historical Examples of Unethical Medical Experimentation

This section places the COVID-19 mass vaccination in the historical context of other unethical medical experiments.  Many books and articles have been written concerning horrific medical experiments (that were performed in the USA over the past century) without obtaining ‘informed consent’ from the test subjects.  These books describe a wide spectrum of experiments.  Individual readers could have different opinions on whether any of the individual experiments reported are more or less ‘unethical’ than those in the Nazi concentration camps, or whether they are ‘unethical’ at all.  Appendix A contains references to books and journal articles that describe some of these experiments (mainly, but not entirely, conducted in the USA or under USA auspices), based on Medline searches and Web sources. Like most research of this type, the conduct of the experiments and the experimental results are not advertised widely.  I was not aware of most of these experiments prior to conducting the analysis on under-reporting of adverse events in my 2015 eBook “Pervasive Causes of Disease”.

The copious references identified in Appendix A are not the result of an exhaustive search; they were obtained after a very brief survey.  There are undoubtedly many other examples (of ‘unethical’ medical experiments) published already that were missed by the survey.   Given the odious nature of these experiments, there are probably far more experiments whose disclosure has not yet seen the light of day.  As shown in the tobacco and asbestos examples in section 9C of Kostoff, most of this information comes to light either from 1) whistleblowers or 2) ‘discovery’ resulting from lawsuits.  In addition, some investigators may stumble across evidence of this type of ‘unethical’ research while doing relatively unrelated types of investigations.

Documentation of many types of ‘unethical’ medical experiments may:

• not have been done, or
• have been done and destroyed, or
• have been done but distorted to protect the miscreants.

This is why retrospective analysis of this type of ‘research’ (which in many cases relies heavily on the printed word as ‘proof’) may be highly under-reflective of the full spectrum of what was actually done in these experiments (e.g., Stephen Kinzer’s description of the records destroyed by the Head of the CIA’s MK-Ultra program.

While there are many stages of the medical research process that could be subjected to ‘unethical’ practices, including selection of the most important research problems for funding, conducting the research, disseminating the results of the research, etc.), conducting the medical research experiments ‘unethically’ has received the most attention by far.  The references in Appendix A, and additional books and journal and magazine articles on unethical medical research experiments, are testimony to this imbalance.

Books and articles only tell part of the larger story.  A more representative reporting on the damage from any type of ‘unethical’ medical research would reflect the pain, suffering, and premature mortality resulting from the medical research experimentation.  A simple estimate of the experiment’s damage could be obtained by integrating the number of people affected by the ‘unethical’ medical experimentation and the degree of damage experienced by each person.  This could be viewed as a ‘weighted’ impact of the adverse effects of the unethical medical experimentation.

In the most widely reported examples of ‘unethical’ medical research (the medical experiments performed in the Nazi concentration camps during WWII), perhaps a few thousand prisoners were involved; it is difficult to find accurate information for actual numbers of prisoners involved.  Further, it is difficult to separate out the 1) many thousands of German citizens subjected to forced sterilization procedures starting in 1933 and 2) many deliberately exterminated in the concentration camps, from 3) those who suffered from the medical experiments in the camps and died as a result of the experiments alone.

In the references in Appendix A

• some of the ‘unethical’ medical experiments described involved under a hundred test subjects,
• many of the ‘unethical’ medical experiments described tended to involve on the order of hundreds of test subjects (who did not provide ‘informed consent’), and
• in some rarer cases, perhaps thousands of test subjects were involved.

Many of these experiments, in parallel with the spirit of the Nazi concentration camp experiments, involved people confined in large institutions who were (usually) not told the full story of the nature of the experiments, or, if they were told, either did not 1) understand it or 2) give ‘informed consent’.  These people were confined in prisons, the military service, mental institutions, children’s institutions, etc.

How do the above odious procedures in these references differ conceptually from the recent trend toward government effectively promoting/mandating COVID-19 vaccines whose safety has not been demonstrated, but (a fraction of) whose adverse health effects have been widely demonstrated?

Based on what has been reported in the experiments referenced in Appendix A (which could in fact be the tip of a much larger unreported iceberg), perhaps on the order of 10,000-30,000 people may have been subjected to ‘unethical’ medical experiments in the past century (excluding those who unwittingly participated in clinical trials that were “off-shored” to (typically) developing countries with knowingly less stringent test subject protections. A few thousand of these test subjects would have died prematurely, and most would have suffered unnecessarily.  These, of course, are horrific numbers.  Unfortunately, they pale in comparison to the carnage that has already resulted from the COVID-19 mass vaccinations (e.g., link#1), the carnage that may result from the longer-term adverse health effects of these COVID-19 vaccines, and the carnage expected from other vaccines that may be deployed using the mRNA platform.

Finally, in the spirit of the ‘unethical’ medical experiments referenced in Appendix A, it is the poor and dispossessed who will suffer the most from COVID-19 vaccinations.  This is because COVID-19 vaccines play a dual role of initiator and promoter/accelerator of serious disease.  In its promoter/accelerator role, it can accelerate the progression of existing serious diseases such as cancer, and/or, through synergy, can produce serious adverse health effects when combined with other toxic stimuli that neither constituent of the combination could produce in isolation.

Many toxic stimuli, such as harsh chemicals, biotoxins, ionizing radiation sources, vibrating machinery, prolonged sitting doing repetitive tasks, high air pollution, etc., are used/experienced by the poorest members of society in their occupations, and many toxic stimuli, such as air pollutants, toxic wastes, etc., are very prevalent in their residential environments.  Thus, people who spray pesticides in farm labor or household applications, people who do cleaning with harsh chemicals, people who dispose of hazardous materials, basically, people who do the dirty work in our society and live in dirty environments, are already leading candidates for higher risk of serious diseases.  Adding a COVID-19 vaccine(s) promoter/accelerator will radically increase their chances for developing serious diseases.  COVID-19 vaccine equity for them will translate to increased suffering and reduced longevity!

CONCLUSIONS

This Op-ed has shown that we are participating in the largest unethical medical experiment in human history, where the participants did not provide informed consent.  Billions of people globally were coerced by 1) either misleading propaganda from vaccine manufacturers, governments, mainstream media, medical professionals, and academics or 2) denial of services (e.g., travel, access to eateries, access to schools, etc.), or both, to participate in a massive global gain-of-function experiment.  This experiment consisted of mass vaccination during a pandemic, which placed large amounts of immune selection pressure upon the virus and forced it to mutate to higher function to survive.  Under this virus Survival of the Fittest scenario, the virus will increase its infectiousness/transmissibility or its virulence/lethality, or some combination of the two, thereby increasing its function.

Additionally, the COVID-19 vaccines being rolled out were not tested adequately at the start (especially for long-term adverse effects), and are increasingly tested less and less as more vaccines are rolled out.  Further, the major COVID-19 vaccines distributed (in the USA and some other countries) use an mRNA platform, whose fundamental mode of operation results in the expression of a foreign protein on the surface of a once-healthy self-cell anywhere in the body, and causes the innate immune system to attack and destroy that cell, a pseudo-autoimmune reaction.  This causes the destruction of organs and tissues throughout the body (as shown by the autopsies), and will eventually reduce lifespan.

A broad survey of past unethical medical experiments was presented in this Op-ed so that the COVID-19 vaccine experiment could be placed in its proper context.  None of the prior unethical medical experiments presented in the survey had anywhere near the absolute number of adverse health effects (including deaths) that the COVID-19 vaccinations have already shown, much less what could be expected from the long-term effects of these vaccines.
