Hundreds of French Citizens Suffer Cardiac Events after Bivalent Boosters; 30 Day Regulatory Window Captures Heart Attacks, Strokes, and Blood Clots by Peter A. McCullough, MD, MPH™
March 30, 2023
I have served on or chaired two dozen data safety monitoring boards for randomized trials of novel experimental drugs or devices. I can tell you first hand that for COVID-19 vaccines, a 30 day regulatory window after injection is fair game for attribution of health events to the product when the adverse events of interest are known to be caused by the mRNA induced Wuhan Spike protein.
Jabagi et al, NEJM, reported from the French National Health Data System linked to the national COVID-19 vaccination database disclosing cardiovascular events after mRNA BA4/BA5 bivalent boosters. All persons who were 50 years of age or older and who had received a booster dose between October 6 and November 9, 2022, were included in the study. The composite of ischemic/hemorrhagic stroke, myocardial infarction, or pulmonary occurred in 335 unfortunate individuals. The authors make the mistake of dividing by the cases by the entire number vaccinated and comparing rates to monovalent boosters. Neither of these operations are valid since there is incomplete capture of events and comparison was not made to a placebo or control group.
These data suggest that large numbers of well-characterized, serious, and potentially fatal safety events are occurring within 21 days after bivalent mRNA boosters. All of these events should be considered to be serious and directly attributable to COVID-19 vaccination, and conversely, if the injections were not received, these individuals in all probability would be alive and free of these complications today.

Dutch debutante Esmée Schenck de Jong (31) suddenly passed away
March 31, 2023
Dutch debutante Esmée Schenck de Jong passed away unexpectedly at the age of 31. The family and publisher Prometheus, which confirms the news, do not want to communicate about the cause of her sudden death. Schenck de Jong caused a furore with her undisguised autobiographical erotic stories, bundled in ‘Because my body wants it.’ In the book, which appeared at the beginning of January, Schenck de Jong records her lustful adventures of recent years, her 'wildest orgies in calligraphy'. She offered a generous glimpse into her unbridled sex life, from threesomes to bdsm parties. Publisher Prometheus spoke of a "taboo and genre-free book to devour like a large bar of chocolate in a single sitting". ‘Because my body wants it’ had just received a second push. Schenck de Jong worked daily in an Amsterdam children's bookstore and sat on a youth book jury, after previously working in healthcare, modeling and writing for VICE and de Volkskrant. Her funeral will take place in The Hague next week.

The festival was crowned by a musical performance in the festively decorated St. Mary's Church in Prenzlau. "It was so nice," wife Kristina looks back in an interview with the Uckermark Courier; clearly struggling for composure — she knows that it will never be like this again, because one will be missing in the future: her 55–year-old husband passed away completely unexpectedly at the beginning of March. Shortly before, the renowned psychologist had been diagnosed with cancer and had been admitted to the hospital. "After that everything went so damn fast," his wife sums up.

The exceptional humility of Emilio Gómez González
January 21, 2023
One of the most extraordinary and multifaceted researchers of the university, academic and scientific community of Seville has passed away. Emilio Gomez González. Professor of those who deserve such rank. Creator in 2001 of the pioneering Interdisciplinary Physics Group of the University of Seville, from the Higher Technical School of Engineering. As self-sacrificing as humble. As admirable for his achievements as for his kindness. A cancerous process that affected his pancreas and liver very quickly has ended with his life at 54 years of age. Before the Christmas period, Emilio Gómez González was excited about his involvement in investigations as diverse as advances in the detection of chemical, biological, radiological, nuclear and explosive substances and agents, which were raising good expectations internationally among many experts in security, as a continuation and practical application of the project that he launched in the spring of 2020, in full confinement, trying to find a method of rapid detection of covid on the surface of objects and materials in our environment. Or the greater involvement that he was going to have since 2023 in work related to knowing the impact of climate change on biodiversity and ecosystems, after his participation in a study on marine phytoplankton.
