Reuters’ ‘COVID’ Fact Check from 2021 … Does Not Age Well

by

Former Pfizer VP Mike Yeadon’s name popped up (see also, an anti-vaxxer, according to the same experts that told you the mRNA vaccine was safe and effective) so I looked him up.

Yeadon is famous for a speech he gave in which the former Pfizer Exec implied a series of unapproved notions. Ideas that were contrary to the approved narratives.

Yeadon insisted that there was no risk of asymptomatic infection (which in early 2021 contradicted the ongoing terrorism of masks, distancing, and testing healthy people.) He was dismissive of hyperbole over variants and insisted that the shots were not safe and effective. He also dared to suggest that the vaccines might be a problem for pregnant women.

Reuters, being a good little prostitute for the Public Health Industrial Complex, debunked each claim with the approved expert opinion rubber-stamped by Bureaucrats ad other professionals on the take from Big Pharma or terrified of being canceled.

Looking back, the Reuters’ fact check doesn’t hold up well, fitting nicely into the category of – what is it they called it again? – misinformation or disinformation.

Here is the Reuters fact-check response to Yeadon’s points and how they’ve shown their age.

ASYMPTOMATIC INFECTION

Reuters Response: “But a report from the United States’ Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) in March this year estimated that 50% of COVID-19 transmission happens before people develop symptoms, while 30% of infected people stay symptom-free (here). Another from January 2021, published in the JAMA Network medical journal, judged that 59% of COVID-19 transmission could be from asymptomatic cases (here).”

‘Grok Verdict: That was all bought and paid for propaganda as part of the intimidation mission to put a needle in every arm. Claims of asymptomatic spread have been rolled back quietly (for the most part), but Yeadon and millions of us were right. Reuters was wrong.

VACCINES

Reuters Response: “[Yeadon] points to the number of side effects listed in U.S. and UK monitoring systems as alleged proof; however, Reuters has already explained these reported reactions are not necessarily caused by the vaccine (here and here).

The shots have been proven to be safe and to give the best protection against COVID-19 (here), while regulators have acted with extreme caution over rare potential adverse reactions (here).

‘Grok Verdict: Documents pried from the FDA and Big Pharma’s lying hands proved that the shots were never safe or effective, and the FDA, CDC, and the manufacturers all knew it. They also knew that a long list of side-effects and harms were well-known before the EUA was issued, and if you doubt me, check the newly released Pfizer BioNtech TV commercials pimping that COVID vax. A long list is read out in the ad as precautions. Sadly, while there are many, the Ad never mentions sudden death (they do mention myocarditis, though).

Yeadon (and you and I, the FLCCC, the AFLD, Dr. Simone Gold, Dr. McCullough, Dr. Kory, and so many others were right. Reuters was wrong.

 

PREGNANCY

Reuters Response: “In December, Public Health England initially advised against pregnant individuals getting a COVID-19 vaccine while waiting for more data (bit.ly/3wocPrk). New advice was issued in April 2021 after real-world data from the U.S. showed 90,000 pregnant women had been safely vaccinated (here).”

‘Grok Verdict: Pregnant women were not excluded from trials. They all miscarried. Post-EUA vax miscarriage numbers in the general population were hundreds or percent above normal.  The potential for harm is so great that in early 2022 news broke of a printed Pfizer vaccine insert that suggested COVID-vaccinated men refrain from heterosexual sex with women of childbearing age for at least 28 days to “eliminate reproductive safety risk.”

Women who got The Jab list babies. Men who got the Jab have also had issues with their “reproductive freedom.”

Yeadon (and everyone else who shouted about risks) was right, and Reuters was wrong.
