They seem technical but are crucial to determine how well the vaccines are working and what their side effects are or aren’t:
The first has to do with how easy/hard it is to classify a Covid patient as Covid vaccinated in hospital EMR systems;
The second has to do with ICD U12.9/T50.Z95A (if you are a coder, you will know what these are) - whether systems are accepting them at all, whether anyone is using them, whether they impact reimbursement.
If you work at a hospital, physician group, or insurer and have knowledge of either issue, please email me at alexberensonauthor at protonmail.com (more secure than Google)…
Just as a side note, for good entertainment, head over and see the bashing Substack is getting, and props Alex is getting, on the page Substack announced making big pharma propogandist Eric Topol a "writer in residence." Just to prove the 900+ commentors bashing this terrible decision by Substack absolutely correct, Topol has already propagandized with his first post, and he's censored and hidden all comments!!!! This IS Substacks Let's Go Brandon moment - how will Substack respond?
I don’t care if he wants to babble his bs and prevent debate on his useless babble here or anywhere else. I DO care when Substack elevates a propagandist who avoids debate by censoring, and his critics prove they are correct, in 12 hours to the level of “writer in residence.” That means the subscriptions we all pay to support the writers we live are also being used to promote big pharma propaganda. I mean, we can all turn on the television for 15 minutes and get a good 5 minutes of big pharma propaganda our taxpayer dollars are funding, why would Substack risk their writers and brand to allow it here?
No debate stop the whole bio- weapon virus doesn’t matter this was man made not of nature and the code is the issue it’s been about money power by corrupt public health cdc and US government they funded this disaster. Getting the correct code will solve the issue of accountability. So called vaccine is not what was sold cannot believe how many rushed to get the jab on a experimental therapeutic with no terms of consent and doctors recommend this. Totally unethical.
His refusal to discuss it proves his weakness, and his awareness of his weakness. We should be careful to avoid using leftist tactics to shut down discussion ourselves. Substack should be criticized for allowing controversial authors to censor discussion, but not for giving controversial authors a platform. Well find other ways to respond to Eric. Wouldn't it be interesting for fauch to have a stack?
Funny. In his introductory post he calls himself an "optimist", but he is hardly optimistic about variant omicron. He didn't say anything about omicron I haven't learned from John Campbell, and Dr Campbell is definitely, if cautiously optimistic.
One might speculate substack "hired" Dr Topol to balance the overweight presence of notorious dis-information-pushing naysayers like Alex Berenson and El Gato Malo, as well as others.
Science isn't "hope" or optimism. Science says omicron is just a way for vaccinees to recall their vaccinal antibodies and now the stage is set for many illnesses to come.
I didn’t link to his page. He literally shit off all comments (It’s at the bottom of the announcement). He’s getting bashed in the Substack announcement page instead. 😂
He banned everyone from commenting on his fear mongering propaganda bs….. he shut off comments and hid them. So instead everyone is bashing Substack on the announcement page where Sub announced making him a “writer in residence.” 😂😂😂
Oh I was there for that part. I just thought maybe we were actually banned from subscribing. I don’t want to subscribe but I was curious if that was truth or humor - I would believe both at this point!
I haven’t tried to subscribe, wouldn’t give him the time of day, I just went to his page for the entertainment - instead it’s just bs about getting Covid, get your booster, make sure big pharma owns your body. 😂. But he shut down and hid the entertainment which is always in the comments on Sub. Apparently he thinks he’s still on twatter. 😂
His bill is exactly what you would expect!!! The variant of the day is “ominous.” Claims of reinfection rates doubling with zero context that reinfection rates are astronomically low compared to frequent “breakthrough” infections. He’s pushing vaccines while discussing the importance of t-cell antibodies when the vaccines are failing because they aren’t producing a t-cell response. After talking about the importance of t-cell antibodies he shifts back to disproven assertions that because a booster increases B-cell antibody levels to an extinct spike protein in blood samples that boosters will provide protection against a new variant with 30 mutations in the spike protein. He talks about mild symptoms in those previously vaccinated/ boostered/ previously infected + vaccinated being mild, but fails to mention the variant was found to be equally mild in previously unvaccinated and not previously infected people who got it at the same time.
And of course he turned off the comments again to censor people from being able to ask these valid questions about his unsupported and unknowable assertions.
Oh, but have bo fear, he says all we need is more shots and boosters and variant specific boosters!!!!! Because Pfizer and big pharma are at risk of loosing customers from their opioid lifetime subscription plans ao they need a new stream of subscription revenue!!!!!
Two kinds of people in the world -- those who recognize the scam, and those who don't. Problem is we have too many these days who can't recognize the scam. The real solution isn't protecting the marks from the scam, but helping them learn to recognize it. Teach a man to fish...
I posted the link to the announcement above. You can click on his thread at the bottom. He now has 2 articles with the comments on both turned off and hidden. 😂😂😂😂😂. This is day 1 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Thanks for the link so I could express my displeasure. It seems like he's having a rough couple days! 😄😄 He has a more discriminating audience here on substack. 👍🏼
as an anecdote: I now know three people, personally, who I believe are vaccine injured (one my father, one a co-worker, one a mother of a co-worker.) Dad had a stroke 6 weeks post shot (went to the ER with non-specific and undiagnosed chest pain at shot + 4 weeks), co-worker's mom had a stroke 2 hrs post shot, co-worker was in 6th day recovering from COVID and got the shot and went down hill, landing in the hospital for 10 days on oxygen. None of these three are in VAERS.
I was “plain stupid”. Had covid January 2021. Asymptomatic, continued my normal workout routine, was of course ask to stay home by my employer, my husband had only fatigue and low grade fever. We survived. He works for the government so was forced to get the jab. (I refuse to call it a vaccination). Why did I do it? Cuz we planned a short cruise and in order to board ship I had to show proof. I’m so disappointed in myself.
My son and his family have not gotten the jab. They did have covid and survived. He has two kids 5 and 3. His 5 year old started kindergarten this year. A former teacher started a private school, for families who did not want there kids to have to wear masks day in and day out. Grandson loves it and is thriving. I’m glad my son has the balls to protect his family from the BS.
I refuse to take it the shot. I learned far too much about this pandemic since March of 2020. I did an analysis for TracyBeanz in March of 2020 using CDC data for "influenza like illness" or ILI. I was among the first to find evidence of outbreak in the US in November of 2019 in the areas surrounding Seattle Tacoma and BWI airports. These are key beause the troops returning from the military games held in Wuhan in October of 2019 returned through those airports. Some other participants returned through NYC and Heathrow airport in London. There was also a "spike" in unknown ILI in London around that time. I was also one of the first to find the research papers from 2007 showing gain-of-function research conducted in Wuhan and elsewhere. They deliberately attached the S-protein from HIV onto SARS in order to better attach to the ACE-2 receptors in lung tissue. The claim was that this was necessary to develop "vaccines" for SARS-1. We now know better.
Back in late 2019, I noticed many posts from the west coast folks complaining of a terrible flu. Symptoms all sounded alike. Some got tested, all said not the flu. No doctor raised a red flag. That is what really bugged me. Zero curiosity or lack of alert system. Many just said they did not know what it was. Nobody in the beginning was asking officials to make an announcement of certainty. Our politicians ask very few intelligent questions. Doctors have just stayed quiet. Media made a decision early to embellish this virus to harm Trump. They sold fear. People did little investigating themselves. I have many nurse friends that took jab and still refuse to ask any questions. It is bizarre behavior.
In November of 2019 a weird "flu" was going around on the UC Davis campus in California. This school has a very high number of Chinese students, many from the Wuhan area. Students including my son got sick and the doctors in the UC Davis health center were puzzled by it, didn't know what it was or what to do for it and just said that "something weird is going around". My son and his girlfriend were pretty sick (he described it as "gnarly") for a couple of weeks. His girlfriend had a more difficult time as she has asthma. She ended up in the ER one night and was put on a nebulizer with some sort of steroid treatment, and they also gave her.....drum roll....ivermectin. She was under the weather for about a month. When more definite news of covid came out in early 2020, they started to think they must have had covid. Never got tested, though, because at the time they were sick no testing at all was being done.
Yes, criminal mad scientists like Fauci always have a reason for their evil, insane experiments. That's why we have laws and treaties against biological warfare that he obviously ignored and rejected. "Lock him up!"
I know SO many people who had a horrible “flu” in December 2019 - February 2020. I didn’t have my 12 year son tested for flu as I just assumed that was it. I still wonder if it was COVID. My husband and I went on Tamiflu immediately as we had a 20th anniversary trip planned. Our 15 year old never got it either.
I empathize with you and what you must be feeling. I have remained steadfast in my opposition to the jab from day 1-but I also recognize the unrelenting pressure to which others like you have succumbed...I understand how that has come to be...it’s not your fault so don’t beat yourself up...I hold the media, our elected officials, Fauxi, and weak, uneducated medical professionals/physicians, completely responsible for what you are going through. Dr. Mercola has written about how to take care of yourself if you now regret getting the jab. Be well 😊
Have you or your husband felt any different in any way after getting The Jab? Did an old illness or previous physical malady flair up after getting it. I know two people in their early 60’s who got it and one, a male, ended up in hospital with neurological issues, the other, a female, with serious vision loss. Neither one had had any health issues in these areas before. Just curious.
I'm shocked that whoever gave him the shot didn't ask/notice that he was recovering. His immune system was already battling COVID and then it got assaulted with the injection, a one-two punch. I've been telling everyone at work "Vitamin D, C, Zinc, Quercetin. And that's it"
A teacher in TX who was very proud vax got Covid this summer. Instead of treatment she got a booster shot and died.
Every place on the planet, including the US, has shown the shot suppresses one’s immune system and it’s very dangerous to get within a week of exposure (exposure from a week before to a week after). When my parents got their first shot in January there were warning signs “do not get a Covid vaccine if you have recently recovered from Covid, if you currently have symptoms of Covid, or if you have recently had extended contact with someone who has, or might have Covid.”
There is no vaccine you should take while actively infected or if you’ve already recovered.
Yet as we push mass jabs that seems to have all disappeared without exination
This was the case with my 70-year old co-worker. A few people in the office were sick with something mild; he caught it, and was recovering. Someone convinced him to get the shot. He and his wife both did. He went from stable/recovering to hospitalized within days. Both he and his wife were hospitalized at the same time. Whoever advised him to get the shot, and whoever administered it, caused two people grave harm. I hope to see him back at work soon, we all miss him and we need him at work.
It’s happened to a lot of people. Excepting one fully vaccinated friend in her mid 40’s who is very overweight, the rest of the people I know who got really sick that are between 30-50 got very sick very shortly after getting a shot - and yet they keep telling people to get “vaccinated” in the middle of outbreaks when they should be telling them to get sunlight, take some vitamin D, and get some exercise. So nutty. Worse is how many people hand their brains to big pharma and Brandon rather than thinking for themselves.
I know 3 healthy fully vaccinated fathers between 41 and 50 who have dropped dead since October 1st of this year. None are in VAERS because it happened more than 2 weeks after their second shot……
You've got it twisted around. Injuries that occur within two weeks of getting vaccinated cannot be reported as vaccine-related because of the CDC's Big Pharma-serving definition of "vaccinated". You see, one is not vaccinated until two weeks after s/he has received two Pfizer/Moderna shots or one J & J shot.
People who get sick with Covid prior to 2-weeks post 2nd (or maybe now 3rd) shot are unvaccinated. Conversely, if an adverse reaction happens more than 10-14 days after the shot then The Party claims it can’t possible be related to the vaccine (and even if it occurs within the 10-14 days it only might be the jab if it’s J&J shot)…
This is the thing: based upon the claimed "safety" profile, one should (statistically) not know anyone who was harmed by these experimental injections; even if we each "knew" 10,000 people. And yet both of us know three people. This tells you the odds of injury are much higher than claimed.
From what I understand, it has traditionally been the case that only about 10% of vaccine-related injuries and deaths make it into the VAERS database. Call me a pessimistic, but I am convinced that far fewer Covid vaccine-related injuries and deaths are being reported than is usually the case.
There is zero incentive for medical professionals to report adverse reactions because there is no monetary carrot being dangled in front of their faces; and, evidently, neither the Hippocratic Oath they took nor their own personal moral compass (assuming any of them still have one) influences how they practice.
Bingo ! That's what everyone should pay close attention to; "zero INCENTIVE for reporting adverse reactions"..... what ever happened to "trust...... BUT VERIFY", BEFORE JUST blindly accepting everything you see in print and hear on TV and radio ? Had "thinking" and "verifying" just gone completely out of fashion ? ?
Wasn't Harvard hired to do a study on what percentage of AE's are actually reported to VAERS? I thought they found the number was 1. 1% of AE's are reported.
39606 is the reported number up through 11-19. Times 42 = 1,623,452 actual
I have read up to 41 times for all adverse reactions = 913,268 x 41 = 37,443,988 which is 11.3% of the entire U.S. population of 330 million. Actually vaccinated with one dose = 234,269,053 means about 16% of all vaccinated have had adverse reactions. If this follows for the deaths 597,308 / 234,269,053 = 10.7% of all vaccinated people die from the vaccination within a few weeks, most within a few days. This does not include the many long term illnesses that will lead to early death.
Note that this number is fast approaching the number of supposed deaths by covid. In England, the fully vaccinated are twice as likely to die from any cause than the unvaccinated, or 200% greater.
Yes, for ANY one person to KNOW THREE people in their own personal circle of friends, harmed by, who got reaction from, or even died as a result of these experimental vaccines is truly MIND BENDING. I agree, we should each have to personally know at least 10,000 individuals to make this even remotely possible. Do people EVEN STOP TO THINK RATIONALLY ABOUT HOW ALL THESE COVID "FACTS" ARE DETERMINED ? By what method/methods they are determined ?
my friend's husband died, 'dead in bed' april 2021 right after vaccines came out. she's a nurse so I'm sure she got them vaxxed right up... the 'dead in bed' thing has been a common theme. no one at the funeral discussed any possibility of the vax. it just was.
I'm starting to note how many "died unexpectedly" and "died suddenly" reports are coming across my FB timeline from friends who report on family deaths, along with posts about "rare, aggressive cancers," "fast growing tumors," and cancers returning after being in remission for years. It's sad.
There is no incentive or consequence for hospitals or medical staff to report reactions to VAERS and the system is cumbersome and time-consuming, and doesn't allow data to be saved until submitted at the very end of the report. If the internet wobbles, you can lose it all and have to start all over. It takes about 30 minutes to fill out a report.
The good news is that anyone can fill out these reports. You could fill one out for your dad. Your co-worker could fill one out for her mom and one for herself.
Just be prepared for the 30 minute ride to bureaucratic insanity (look on VAERS to see what kind of info they'll want from you before starting and collect it all within easy reach).
It is weird to say, but medical staff in our hospitals lack curiosity. We assume they know much more than they do. They never ask “why”? As I have posted many times, I have aggressive cancer. I have had cancer for almost 30 years. Obviously I have been exposed to many doctors, nurses, techs all over the country. Also in the past year had a major accident. Got to see how the ER works, specialists, etc. One tech very opinionated and curious. Privately told me things to ask doc about but do not tell doc he gave that advice. Nurses seem angry. They are overworked. ER docs not information forthcoming. When I got to specialists, more curiosity. My case was messy and needed some thinking.
First, there has to be an acknowledgment that what they're seeing is a vaccine injury, and not "a new strain of COVID" or "psychosis." There has been a lot of diagnosing people with mental health problems instead of treating for blood clots and cardiac injuries. There has also been a lot of lying going on about this from hospital spokesmen and denial of reality and refusal to treat any resulting symptoms from ER personnel, and so on.
If you are less than 14 days out from your 2nd dose, you're considered unvaxxed--so that complicates all of this too.
And hospitals really don't want staff filing these reports. If they're caught filing them on the clock, they're reprimanded.
There are whistleblowers speaking out via video on places like Rumble and Bitchute and Tiktok (and even the odd Youtube video) to say that the number of injuries is overwhelming. Most of the people in hospital now, even newborns and infants, are exhibiting signs of vaccine injury. No one has enough hours in the day to properly file the reports.
I know several people who have had heart attacks, stroke, water on the brain, and water on the heart after their 2nd shot. The Doctors have dismissed their claims of Vaccine Injury and will not contact VAERS. Unfortunately they haven't contacted VAERS on their own either.
My dad suffered a brain bleed that put him in the hospital/rehab for more than six weeks. The cause is "unknown". There was no underlying disease. While he is back home and mobile, his ability to read, write and speak coherently is damaged. It remains to be seen what he can eventually recover. 4 weeks after his J&J shot, he had "chest pains" and went to the ER. A battery of tests revealed nothing. Two weeks later he collapsed with a massive bleed. He got the shot because he was afraid Biden would remove his military health benefits. He took it under coercion.
There is so much sadness, tragedy, and personal suffering and heartache connected to all this mass vaccination, and sadly, most suffer in isolation and silence. Fear and intimidation: loose your job, your livelihood, loose your military health care benefits, loose your right to higher education, loose your friends and family and become a "leaper", an outcast from society.... the world will weep collectively at some point in the future over what we have done to ourselves and our society.
My mom had a stroke after the Moderna vaccine. She didn’t survive it, but they said it was a “coincidence”. She was 86, and this happened in early January 2021. I was immediately suspicious but it was so early on.
I also have 6 close friends and relatives injured from vax.. One or two could be coincidental but not ALL of them. I have a very small circle of friends btw.
same here; my circle of friends, family and colleagues is relatively small. This is why it is statistically unlikely that we should know so many people who were, or are suspected of being, injured by the injection. Do not use the word "v". It doesn't apply
I have read we should multiply VAERS reports 41 times for all adverse reactions = 913,268 x 41 = 37,443,988 which is 11.3% of the entire U.S. population of 330 million. Actually vaccinated with one dose = 234,269,053 means about 16% of all vaccinated have had adverse reactions. If this follows for the deaths 597,308 / 234,269,053 = 10.7% of all vaccinated people die from the vaccination within a few weeks, most within a few days. This does not include the many long term illnesses that will lead to early death.
Note that this number is fast approaching the number of supposed deaths by covid in US. In England, the fully vaccinated are twice as likely to die from any cause than the unvaccinated, or 200% greater. The overall death rate is up. Since the vax, we are seeing a rise in deaths around the world, I believe...first year of covid....no change.
What's the process for reporting to VAERS? I guess a hospital or some medical personnel must make the report for the patient? Is there not a way for an individual to report himself?
Even though knowing what is going on is important. There are certain values that should not be surrendered because that have a moral basis (like not forcing anyone to take a vaccine).
Interestingly , when a patient has a miscarriage, abnormal bleeding , abruption ect… I ask the resident if they have been vaccinated, if so when? The resident usually looks at me and asks why ? I’m so disappointed ☹️.
Covid positive patients with comorbities seem to have issues,vaccinated or not .There are 2 physicians who vaccinate all pregnant patients in their group and yes they seem to have more miscarriages and abruptions.
It’s kind of like when they ask you at your mammogram if you are on birth control because they know the dirty little secret is that birth control is a known carcinogen.
The population is signing themselves up for a very expensive big pharma subscription service. If they can make you get a shot every 3-6 months that causes heart and neurological damage, they make WAY more money than Apple could ever dream of
😂. I saw they changed their definition of vaccinated to shots every 3 months. Why are our tax dollars funding big pharma dependency policies for everyone?????
Yes we coders see these codes. I just got notice last week that Medicare was beginning to audit Covid records. I cannot wait to see how much fraud went on with billing charts with Covid and they really had another condition that either caused their passing or caused their hospital visit
Friends in San Antonio lost their mother last year. Covid was on her death certificate and she didn't have it. They were livid and encouraged to file a complaint with Medicare.
Another question to pose...We are constantly being told the ER's are overrun. A Healthcare worker I know was hospitalized for a reaction to the FLU vaccine(yes, they've jacked that up this year as well !). While at the hospital she develops covid. She notices 13 empty rooms in the covid ward and asks her nurse what gives since the story is all the beds are filled. The nurse said they've been told by their superiors that they are full based on their current STAFFING levels - not the true number of beds available.
Personnel shortages are definitely part of it. But it is important to keep in mind that every year during peak flu season hospitals are swamped. It's just that the media do not make a big deal about it. Well, that is, prior to two years ago, they didn't. They simply relabeled the flu as Covid, showed a couple of images on the TV screen, and told everyone that the Bogeyman had come to get them.
You know? I'm old enough to remember when only children believed in the Bogeyman. I'd sure like to see things go back to being that way.
I agree that there is a seasonality aspect to this, whether you call it COVID or the flu. However, every time we hear about hospitals being overrun, by the fear mongering media that you alluded to, it is primarily to support the "pandemic of the unvaccinated" narrative, while ignoring the underlying facts that are politically and medically inconvenient.
As for the Bogeyman, I don't see him going away any time soon ~ he's a very useful tool.
Talked to two friends (both physicians at different hospitals) and my wife (physician assistant) about the staffing issue. From their perspective, this is a result of a large number of baby boomers retiring early. Morale at hospitals was sinking before the "pandemic" due to independent hospitals being gobbled up by large "non-profit" healthcare systems that have turned these hospitals into healthcare machines with no soul. These "non-profits" have executives that make millions but don't have to pay taxes. Meanwhile, they are pushing LEAN tactics and cost-cutting measures to improve the bottom line. Now, with all the BS surrounding COVID, the Boomers would rather retire early than live like this anymore. Throw in wearing masks all day and mandating vaccines, and you can see how this happened.
I get Becker's Hospital Review and it's amazing to see the number of articles about smaller (usually rural) hospitals closing or eliminating certain functions. And then there sickening articles about "executive moves". What a racket!
Yes, and I have had HCWs argue that that means that there are too many covid patients, and is NOT a result of vaccine mandates leading to reduced staff.
Do you know how those codes are impacting reimbursements? My sense is you're on the coding side.
General Comment: coders and billing departments are completely separate. The connection between what was coded and how it affected payments is a managerial-level reporting issue.
I am an ER physician and only see the front end of coding and billing when I list diagnoses and the billing code pops up. The coders and billers take over from there.
Have you heard anything on the impact on receivables? My sense is you are being "trained" in proper usage to maximize reimbursement (former UC manager, here.)
Our group subcontracts our services to a large hospital system. We do our own billing through an India based billing and coding company. I see the front end and am separated from the receivables until my paycheck arrives. In the beginning, we were "trained" to utilize the Covid diagnosis or Covid Concerns diagnosis early and often because reimbursement was quite high for any Covid-related diagnosis. Even now, before I enter any diagnosis I am prompted to consider the addition of a Covid-related diagnosis regardless of why the patient presented to the ER. I labeled myself early on as a heretic for questioning the ethics of this "prompting" because it reimbursed better.
I would inquire further about the impact on receivables, but because of asking uncomfortable questions of to senior officials within the system, I have been told to refrain from this behavior. I have lost all respect for who I work for and with and am trying to lay low until I find other opportunities to practice. The self-respect that is gone by not fighting more loudly is only somewhat balanced by quietly working around the the systems protocols for treating Covid with therapeutics that I feel my patients may benefit from that the system strictly prohibits.
I am Brit with no info on coding but just had to write and thank you for your tireless work. I work clinically within the NHS and am so grateful for your determination to get to the truth.
curious about this statistic: Of people that received the vaccine, how many got Covid after receiving the vaccine? With a "normal" vaccine like measles or mumps, of people that received the vaccine, what percentage of people actually came down with measles or mumps? If we knew that stat exactly, it would show people the efficacy of the vaccine.
The numbers are high. There is actually no valid research showing that the vaccine has any effect on stopping covid....none. Now invalid research...there is plenty of that. Liars among scientists are about the same as liars among politicians.
I think we ought to be held to the same standard Alex is trying to hold scientists to. Real data. Not just, "the numbers are high". What's high? Skip the fact that some people are telling big fibs. Data as Alex B has shown in the past punctures the lies.
I read the stats that came out from Massachusetts months ago from their own health department relating to "break through" cases. It showed that clearly vaxxed people were still getting covid, even going to the hospital, and even dying.
Here is yesterday's headline: Massachusetts coronavirus breakthrough cases surge 11,321 last week, smashing record high for the state
My husband worked in an ER up until November 12th (when vaccine mandate went into effect). He said about half of his Covid admits were vaccinated. Now he works at an urgent care and regularly sees vaccinated testing positive for Covid. He doesn't believe the shots work at all.
This is the best way to get the truth, from others who work in the middle of all this. Call it heresay and not data … I don’t care . They fry whistleblowers.
We don't get the luxury of seeing actual data in this pandemic (that's why we're all here). I was offering the closest thing to it-real world experience. Best I can do. Good luck with your search though.
This is NOT a vaccine and offers NO long term protection from getting C19--only a possible reduction in symptoms. Monoclonal antibodies work better at reducing problems.
You missed the memo. In September of this year the CDC changed the definition of vaccine so that people would stop calling Fraudci a liar. Unlike traditional vaccines, modern vaccines (which are supposed to be superior to traditional vaccines) do not confer immunity to the diseases they are designed to make you more vulnerable to, er, I mean, protect you from. And, as we can clearly see, the level of protection they offer is worse than no protection at all. But I digress...
Thinking about it, why is anyone up in arms about Aaron Rodgers - he 100% had a vaccine under the new definition of vaccine. He just did not have an *approved* vaccine.
I remember him saying that. But I have not been paying any attention to sports lately, so I thought that perhaps he had elaborated on how he came to be immunized.
I don't care about what we think about the vaccine, but it certainly helps to compare and contrast results with conventional vaccines to compare and contrast. That gives you great perspective
Yep. Like here in the USA. If you want a decent estimate of the number of vaccine-related injuries and deaths, multiply the current VAERS figures by at least 10.
I've heard from two experts about that number. One said multiply the VAERS numbers by 31 and the other said 41. Both were experts in this field relating to the statistics.
Considering no one has died from Covid, as it does not exist anywhere outside of the minds of the brainwashed sheeple, it would difficult for the vaccines to not be more deadly than than the non-existent virus.
Well, people don't die of the flu either, it's usually complications DUE to the flue [i.e., pneumonia] or in this case, with the heavily lab modified coronavirus, the souped-up spike protein causes some people's immune system to go into a sudden cytokine storm which once in action is a real helluva internal war to calm down. Auto-immune diseases like eczema, lupus etc. can do the same thing. :( That's why early treatments and supplements [NOT fraudulent 'vaccines'] are so important to stave off and stop the storm. <--I'm speaking from my own research and learning from reading and experience with my own autoimmune disease and not claiming to be medical expert though!
You are correct about what actually kills people. But it does not change the fact that the flu exists. Genomic sequencing of the Influenza A and Influenza B viruses has been done. Genomic sequencing of Covid has not been done. As a result, no one can truthfully say that Covid exists.
You may respond, well, on the flip side, no one can say that Covid does not exist. And I would have to agree with you. However, ask yourself why the NWOers would waste time, money, and resources creating a virus when all they have to do is use the communications media they own to convince people by shoving the desired narrative down their throats all day, everyday 1,000 times a day that there is a really, really bad virus out there. They wouldn't and they didn't.
Unless and until at least a partial genomic sequencing of this "virus" is completed, we'll all just have to take the honorable word of Big Pharma and its agents in the media and government; something I'm not willing to do for reasons that should be readily obvious.
One resource you might turn to for assistance in finding this info might be ChildrensHealthDefense (dot) org. (Robert F. Kennedy Jr's website) The Defender has posted extensively in the past about the downsides of the MMR and other similar vaccines.
552 Fully Vaccinated Oregon Residents Died of COVID, Half Received Pfizer Vaccine
“Of the total number of deaths, 273 people had been fully vaccinated with the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine. At least 144 received the Moderna vaccine and 78 were given the Johnson & Johnson shots, according to data from the Oregon Health Authority.”
You can’t trust anyone who turns off comments. Don’t know who this asshat is. Admits he’s not a virologist, immunologist etc. sounds like an administrator like Anthony Feces.
I don't mean to stick up for this jerk, but just because he isn't A virologist, etc. doesn't mean he lacks qualifications to discuss Covid. The MSM did the same "he's not a virologist, he's not this or that" to marginalize Scott Atlas. Let's marginalize Topol by demonstrating his positions are erroneous.
Hi Alex. I just read this op-ed in the NYT from an ER doc in Michigan, the state I live in. If you or anyone you're aware of is able to respond to the op-ed and the sources it links to for data, I'd encourage you to publish that response. Thanks.
I’m an E.R. Doctor in Michigan, Where Unvaccinated People Are Filling Hospital Beds, Dec. 8, 2021
By Rob Davidson, an emergency physician in a rural area of West Michigan, which is experiencing a Covid surge.
I hope you do. The latest attack strategy in Michigan is to blame the unvaccinated for hospitals being at capacity. A variation on them being full because of horse paste overdoses maybe. If they're so worried, why not talk about vitamin d, mouth & nasal rinse, quercetin, zinc, etc. And how long can they ignore natural immunity? This is terrible science and bad medicine.
Alex, you know as well as anybody, and better than most, the nature of the game this quack and his fellow ducks are playing. He's tired of his rinky dink rural digs. He wants to move on up to that deluxe office on the top floor of the Pfizer building.
Yes, I'm pretty sure he ran for a congressional seat as a Dem several years ago, maybe even more recently. I don't know much beyond that. But as someone who was a lifelong Dem (but now Independent), it's still hard for me to believe he's outright lying vs. responding to some distortions in the system of tracking vaccine status or something else I'm not understanding. The data he links to seems so very different from the more reliable tracking data from the UK, Israel, etc.
I guess I was struck by his claim to be speaking from direct experience. But if he's relying on Remdesivir and putting people on ventilators, as so many docs are, then he's helping to kill people, regardless of their vaccination status.
Thank you all for your comments and links. I'll check out the links and read the op-ed again more carefully (e.g., the first time I didn't catch things like "nonsense about lifelong immunity and unproven cures.") I guess I'm still adjusting to the reality that people I hoped won an election several years ago can be blind drunk on the Kool-Aid.
Thanks again everyone and thanks Alex for your research, writing, leadership, hard work and courage.
Pandemia, indeed...more contagious than the virus.
I'm also in Michigan. Check this out: https://starkmanapproved.com/beaumont-healths-unvaccinated-pandemic/ After the parking-lot-filled-with-gun-shot-victims-due-to-horse-paste-poisonings viral "news" story, I do not believe much of anything anymore. I have identified some tropes: the regretful dying unvaccinated person trope, which has been going around for months, and now this one, which I have seen before. I'm not saying that any specific report is true or untrue, I just suspect full on pharma jive first of all.
I am in Michigan and have a relative that works for a large company. He receives email notifications whenever anyone at his location is diagnosed with covid. That notification always says whether that person is vaccinated. The majority who have covid are vaccinated.
"I often feel full of trauma, guilt and despair. I’m mad at the Fox News personalities and the Republican politicians who downplay vaccination. I’m frustrated with people who aren’t doing more to protect themselves and their loved ones."
Yes, because the 40% of the black community in America who don't want the vaxxes take their marching orders from Fox News and the GOP.
Say, Doctor Rob, if someone wanted to do "more to protect themselves and their loved ones", would you write a prescription for HCQ or Ivermectin for them and their loved ones?
We don't know the answer to that question...but really, we DO know.
A serious ER doctor would NEVER state: "nonsense about lifelong natural immunity and unproven cures". It's not nonsense - it's a fact. This looks more like propaganda to me then a real life doctor. By now science is quite clear about naturally acquired immunity as being vastly superior. This fact is indisputable just downplayed courtesy of dr. Fauci von Science.
It appears all of this mess is actually his private war on natural immunity.
You're not supposed to remember that your entire life you have been being told the truth about the superiority of natural immunity over vaccine-produced immunity. You were supposed to been so terrified of their doomsday prognosis that you forgot everything you had ever learned prior to the arrival of the greatest threat to human existence there has ever been.
Let me help out as I see that you are in need of a little, shall we say, re-education.
1. There is no such thing as natural immunity.
2. There is no such thing as immunity.
3. Therefore, there is no such thing as herd immunity.
4. The vaccine is the only manner of rescuing humanity from this murderous menace.
5. However, the vaccine does not offer very strong protection and what little protection it confers is fleeting.
6. Therefore, it is incumbent upon all of us (for our protection and that of everyone else) that we get a full regiment of jabs and boosters as they become available.
7. The jabs and boosters for one variant are not effective protection against newer variants.
8. Therefore, as new vaccines and boosters are rolled out to combat new variants, everyone is going to have to get a whole new set of jabs and boosters.
9. There will always be new variants - for after all of the letters of the Greek alphabet have been used, they use Chinese characters.
Yes, everyone has forgotten anything they learned before 2019. There are reasons we have not used masks against viruses in the hundred years between the Spanish flu and the panic. There are reasons why we have never locked down the entire planet to combat a pandemic. There are reasons why ventilators were not used as early interventions. There are reasons why we have not done any of this one this scale. Yet, for some reason, all of that was forgotten by early 2020.
"A few days later, a young patient sick with Covid-19 was admitted with dangerously low blood oxygen levels. His spouse and infant child came in to say goodbye just before he was sedated and intubated. “I don’t think I’ll see you again,” he said. He died before the end of the week. He was unvaccinated."
Hey Doctor Rob, how about a little more information. Like, how many (if any) comorbidities did he have? And, did you try Ivermectin on him? And nowadays "unvaccinated" needs clarification. Did he only have one shot, or only have two shots, or only have two shots and only one booster, or no shots?
See, you aholes have so bastardized and perverted language and data that NOTHING you say has any credibility anymore.
To be safe, just don’t get any vaccines. I’m right now rewatching the documentary “VAXXED”. It’s horrifying how corrupt our 3-letter health agencies are. Can’t trust a thing they say or do.
I might make an exception if a rabid animal bit me, or I got a puncture wound with manure on the nail or whatever. Even then, go antigen-free (both air and food) for a while. Otherwise, vaccines don't seem to be a good idea.
I totally agree. To give us all of the information would enable us to make educated decisions regarding our health. They don’t want that. Their mantra is-COVID kills - get the shot ! Fear is their weapon of choice.
He's cleverly folding the full hospitals issue into unvaccinated patients sick with covid so you think they are related. This column (https://igorchudov.substack.com/p/medias-false-fear-about-michigan) does a good job of responding to a different article. He showed the number of covid cases were the same as a year ago, but the overall census was higher and mandate caused staffing shortages.
Many public libraries offer free NYT subscriptions. You can often get a digital library for just this purpose (and for reading ebooks). Also if you hit the "stop loading" button to the left of the url box, before the page fully loads, you can sometimes read the entire article.
Hi, I’m a coder in the US. We don’t currently have U12.9 in the US ICD-10 CM version. We can use the T code but doctors have to link the vaccine to the presenting problem. I work for hospitals all over US and can tell it hardly ever happens.
That's my fear also. Flight and travel. I'm retired, so only worry that the horror that DeBlasio wants for NYC will spread nationwide - not government mandates but mandates from private companies. (Encouraged by government). A court won't help us then.
Alex: this came from a local (Oregon) contact of mine on FB. --- "I do use those codes. You may have typed U12.9 incorrectly as that is not in my 2022 books. Here's the problem with using those codes. We can only code what the doctor SAYS. we cant automatically correlate the two. I do use the adverse effect code....but can only if it's stated as such. I will tell you right now that the information is being suppressed or not even investigated. The ones I have seen have only been because the family is INSISTING the possible correlation be investigated. PS: I have proton email as well." I've also shared this substack link to encourage her to sign up.
I don't do coding but after defending serious personal injury cases for over 20 years, I read enough medical and hospital records and invoices etc... to get the general gist of the significance of the issue re hospital records
I highly doubt the medical mainstream is looking for, much less documenting, vaccine side effects. Strokes, heart attacks, other vascular disorders...those happen all the time. Why would they venture outside the lines and document something like that in a patients chart? They might privately wonder, but I don't think they'd put it in writing.
I have incurable bone marrow cancer (multiple myeloma). I was diagnosed in 2018 and given 3-6 months to live. I rejected chemo because it would destroy my immune system. I got COVID in June 2021. I’m not vaccinated. The only reason I survived COVID without meds and without being hospitalized is because of my 10 Unconventional Cancer Protocols, which I created for myself in 2018 and have enhanced my “compromised” immune system that was a result of my bone marrow cancer. If I got jabbed with the COVID Vaccine, who knows if I would be thriving today or even dead!!!
By the way, Colin Powell had multiple myeloma as I have, but he was fully vaccinated and got COVID and died. I am sure he had chemo and did nothing to enhance his depressed immune system.
In our organizations, most all providers are now placing whether a patient is vaccinated or not (from their organization or some other place) in the H&P part of the chart so it can easily be data mined. Our COVID Dashboard tells us each day about inpatients that are in the house (within all of our Hospitals) and whether they are on a regular floor unit or in an ICU. If in ICU are they on a vent, have they been vaccinated or not, their age and their gender. If the patient had actual COVID (has antibodies) at some point and no vaccine or came in for another reason and yet are also exhibiting mild to moderate systems of COVID they are classified as a PUI or patient under investigation. We are tracking who does better, gets out faster and, and, and.. So that effort is being made, but on the clinical record (EMR) side.
On the coding side (and ICD codes are ALL about billing) this code is an ICD 10 code being utilized in part on the “Problem List” that a physician /provider documents for reimbursement purposes (only vaguely related to clinical documentation, but a necessary evil). Often recoded (or just coded) by a coder but physicians are supposed to provide the source data to arrive at the code.
This code has to do with the initial encounter of a patient who "experiences adverse effects from vaccines or other external causes like poison". Is it being used? I am sure it is, somewhere by someone. You do not get nearly as much money for reporting this adverse initial condition as saying they were admitted with COVID. So I expect the COVID admits dwarf this code, irrespective of what the actual real admission cause was. As you can imagine, for many patients, what they have is pretty muddy when they come in the door. People are not looking for vaccine reactions on admit, so they are not picked up as a matter of course. (Because the vaccines have no deleterious effects, of course, why look?)
In Colorado if you were vaccinated at the VA or at a DoD facility (military base), you'll be counted as unvaccinated because you're not in CIIS (Colorado Immunization Registry.)
Glenn Beck Exposes The “JOINTLY OWNED” Coronavirus Vaccine Between Moderna And US Gov (NIAID)
Glenn Beck recently obtained a copy of the 153 Page Confidential Agreement between Moderna and the U.S. Government, and it goes back to 2015.
Last year, it was reported by a few media outlets (see Axios) of such an agreement, but no physical evidence to reference from. Now Glenn Beck got his hands on it.
On page 104, the document shows a collaboration between the NIH, Moderna and Dr. Ralph Baric, whose signature appears on page 106 of the material transfer agreement.
The agreement was that the NIH transfers the mRNA tech to Dr. Baric. But look what they wanted to make clear: “mRNA vaccine candidates developed and jointly owned by the NIAID (National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases) and Moderna.”
Did you get that? The vaccine is co-owned by the government. So in other words, the same government that is mandating the vaccine, owns the vaccine and profiting from it. Conflict of interest much?
For the first question Alex could check out the Highwire interview with Deborah Conrad, a physician assistant from upstate New York. According to her the hospital knew the vax status if the patient was vaxxed in the hospital system she worked for, but they did not know it, if they had gotten vaxxed somewhere else (pharmacy etc.)
So my doc required that I take a test because I use Ambien once in awhile. She said the government now requires it. That being said, the test is NOT FDA approved. Look at what they tested me for:
6-Acetylmorphone, urine Negative
Negative
AMPHETAMINES Negative
Negative
BARBITURATES Negative
Negative
BENZODIAZEPINES Negative
Negative
Buprenorphine screen, urine Negative
Negative
COCAINE Negative
Negative
OPIATES Negative
Negative
EDDP, urine Negative
Negative
OXYCODONE Negative
Negative
FENTANYL Negative
Negative
The US Food and Drug Administration has not approved or cleared this test, however, FDA clearance or approval is not currently required for clinical use. The results are not intended to be used as a sole means for clinical diagnosis or patient management decisions.
I am in Los Angeles and my UCLA doctors have given me Ambien for many years. I’ll admit on my last visit my doctor tried to talk me out of it, but she gave it to me without any demand for a test. (Except for routine labs which came back fine).
As a hospitalist in labor and delivery, there is only positive or negative for Covid. Vaccinated or not vaccinated doesn’t seem to be part of the coding that I see but I will ask.
Alex what my daughter in IT at a major Dallas hospital was able to provide on the codes -
Well, I don’t see U12.9 in our EMR at all (meaning it can’t be used cause it’s not there). We get official ICD-10 files to load every couple months or so, so all I can say is maybe this is a very new code or something. I see the other one though, it’s basically an adverse reaction to a vaccine, but I feel like I shouldn’t look to see if it’s being used cause I’m not really supposed to do that. But since it’s not even specific to Covid I’m sure it gets used some. I wouldn’t know what the coding guidelines are around it though. Usually what the coder will say is they can’t code it unless it’s specifically documented by the doctor, but there are other rules they have to go by too.
Alex, along with Glenn Greenwald and Bari Weiss the only ones fighting the narrative of the legacy media. For a deeper dive into the "Truth Squad" go to mikeboyd.substack.com.
Glenn Greenwald was part of the decision to elevate Eric Topol to "writer is residents." And just to prove the over 900 commentors bashing that decision correct on the announcement page, Topol propagandized for big pharma in his first and only article, and then turned off and hid all comments effectively censoring all questions about his propoganda.
Alex please report on the concentration camp like lockdowns in Australia. The mandatory forced vaccines in Germany and Austria and essentially Canada. The New World Order is here.
When big tech can ban the President of The United States from social media, who is really running the country. Welcome my son, to the machine.
A Pulmonologist M.D. is who makes the call only on this no one else not even Fauci, or any on TV cable news or Twitter and Facebook. Work or seen any of these types of patients. It was this way 2 years ago and still the same today. I will Tell you as you well know the P.C.R. test is not the real way as you know it is a process of many things. (ABG) is a start again as you well know these procedures being one of the best Respiratory guys in the world. Knowing their vaccination statis is with your (PCP) insurance and the State. Again, you can find out most things through blood samples. P.C.R. test will tell you say of Coronavirus but not viral pneumonia them another test done by the above M.D. only they can order this type of work for insurance to pay for this type of work. Again, as you already know all these answers for more than 30 years now.
Don't get too smitten with proton. It's easy to find the needle in the haystack when it's a smaller haystack that attracts dissenter types, adulterers, and criminals. If they were as secure as you want to believe, they would have already gone the way of lavabit.
I see what you’re doing ;) I suppose the all payout claims databases APCDs for the states that have them would be a fabulous FOIA request. Aggregates tons of data. Could extrapolate from there. Also there are a number of state and regional HIEs that also aggregate hospital clinical feeds; think ADT traffic… admits, discharges, addendums during stay.
From the ambulatory side much trickier and frankly where most incidents might be recorded (assuming they’re even recording the codes because PITA and they’ll get reimbursed anyways). That’s going to be claims I’m afraid as most aggregation in ambulatory is vendor provided and inaccessible outside of probably court order.
I am not a biller or coder, but work with them on a daily basis as a sort of consultant.
Medicare has this resource, you can search all of their billing and coding guidelines here or view other resources that billiers use to know exactly how to bill medicare for services.
Bottom line is...hospitals and physicians are incentivized to bill for as much as they can. Hospitals will bill medicare, etc. for their services and physicians offices will also bill for their time/services that they spend in the hospital if they are not a hospital only physician. Example: A local pulmonologist has a private practice in the community, but treats Covid patients in the hospital ICU. His office would use an office billing form (CMS 1500 form) for his/her time spent in the hospital. The average Hospital stay is something like $3000+, the average ICU stay is $6000+...
My degree is in Heath Information Management and Technology. After I graduated I went to work in medical sales and marketing, so I never got into medical coding. I know plenty of my classmates who work for Wellstar, Piedmont, and Northside, which are the largest health systems in Georgia.
Back in April 2020 after watching the local news standing outside Kennestone Hospital reporting COVID patients are taking up so many beds, I called some friends who do medical coding for Kennestone. That's when I first realized there is an agenda behind this man made pandemic. Kennestone, they told me, had never been so empty. That none of the COVID deaths they were coding had been lab confirmed, and that at least one trauma patient was coded as a COVID death.
Electronic medical records were mandated by Obama care with the promise it would literally save hundreds of billions of dollars and improve the care of patients. It was all BULLSHIT. There was no interoperability, no continuum of care between providers, certainly NO savings. Alot of physicians have come out and said these systems have hindered care.
I say all that based on my professional experience, there is absolutely no way COVID vaccination records are easily accessible or easily communicated to EMRs.
Not a coder, no formal training, but I do know what you are saying, yes, it is VERY important. Very similar to setting up a research study. One of the first things I learned at the doctorate level was HOW to set up a "study" to produce different "results". Choosing the variables, the size of the sample, the standard deviation, etc. etc. can produce nearly any results you desire to "prove". And, few, if any, will have ANY idea how to "dig up" the original format of the study, and if they did go to that trouble, few would recognize these various elements or question them; such as: were the variables studied those most likely to produce particular results, is the size of the sample appropriate, HOW were the samples chosen, what was the LENGTH of the study, on and on an on.... the coding and many other variables are of such extreme importance in reporting anything connected to covid, and I fear most of the statistical work is so imbued with bias for one purpose or another that I wonder.... will it all get so muddled and contaminated that we will never be able to determine the real truth of this all.... which is very sad for all mankind !
Question: How many of you have not been getting the Berenson posts sent or forwarded. seems to be more and more accounts of nuanced censoring going on with substack decimation of information?
I’m a physician,and I don’t know the answer to your question,but,I have coders!I’ll ask them tomorrow.
Thanks!

Pfizer, Big Pharma Ramp Up Lobbying to Sink Law Aimed at Protecting Whistleblowers
https://childrenshealthdefense.org/defender/pfizer-big-pharma-lobbying-law-protecting-whistleblowers/?utm_source=salsa&eType=EmailBlastContent&eId=e5098009-d032-4293-b2dc-3cbba357aba1
I hope this helps
👏👏👏
I see a lot of up coding for money
No checks and balances
Just as a side note, for good entertainment, head over and see the bashing Substack is getting, and props Alex is getting, on the page Substack announced making big pharma propogandist Eric Topol a "writer in residence." Just to prove the 900+ commentors bashing this terrible decision by Substack absolutely correct, Topol has already propagandized with his first post, and he's censored and hidden all comments!!!! This IS Substacks Let's Go Brandon moment - how will Substack respond?
Someone can start a substack called "Comments on Eric Topol's Substack Posts That Eric doesn't want you to see."
That would be golden!!!!!
😄😄😄 I love it!
Yes, yes, yes!!! Classic. This is why I love AB commenters.
that's amazing.
He should watch this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OLxJUOc_p5o
Holy Snoikies! The plague of locusts just can't stand anyone else having a platform that they can't ruin.
I don’t care if he wants to babble his bs and prevent debate on his useless babble here or anywhere else. I DO care when Substack elevates a propagandist who avoids debate by censoring, and his critics prove they are correct, in 12 hours to the level of “writer in residence.” That means the subscriptions we all pay to support the writers we live are also being used to promote big pharma propaganda. I mean, we can all turn on the television for 15 minutes and get a good 5 minutes of big pharma propaganda our taxpayer dollars are funding, why would Substack risk their writers and brand to allow it here?
No debate stop the whole bio- weapon virus doesn’t matter this was man made not of nature and the code is the issue it’s been about money power by corrupt public health cdc and US government they funded this disaster. Getting the correct code will solve the issue of accountability. So called vaccine is not what was sold cannot believe how many rushed to get the jab on a experimental therapeutic with no terms of consent and doctors recommend this. Totally unethical.

Oh I hear ya loud-n-clear!!!!!!
His refusal to discuss it proves his weakness, and his awareness of his weakness. We should be careful to avoid using leftist tactics to shut down discussion ourselves. Substack should be criticized for allowing controversial authors to censor discussion, but not for giving controversial authors a platform. Well find other ways to respond to Eric. Wouldn't it be interesting for fauch to have a stack?
"writer in residence."?? More like "writer of BULLSHIT propaganda."

Yikes. His face in that photo looks like an advertisement for constipation medication.
It’s cause all the bill shit he dreams up is clogging him up!!!
Oh yes! And the brain farts on hyper-drive!
Eek! What is seen cannot be unseen.
You can leave comments on the link above if you wish to express your opinion about the new writer in residence.
Already done
Funny. In his introductory post he calls himself an "optimist", but he is hardly optimistic about variant omicron. He didn't say anything about omicron I haven't learned from John Campbell, and Dr Campbell is definitely, if cautiously optimistic.
One might speculate substack "hired" Dr Topol to balance the overweight presence of notorious dis-information-pushing naysayers like Alex Berenson and El Gato Malo, as well as others.
Science isn't "hope" or optimism. Science says omicron is just a way for vaccinees to recall their vaccinal antibodies and now the stage is set for many illnesses to come.
I didn't realize it, but you can ban people from subscribing and commenting:
How do I ban a list of users from commenting or subscribing?
https://support.substack.com/hc/en-us/articles/360059791732-How-do-I-ban-a-list-of-users-from-commenting-or-subscribing-
I didn’t link to his page. He literally shit off all comments (It’s at the bottom of the announcement). He’s getting bashed in the Substack announcement page instead. 😂
Then he banned all of us. 😂😂😂
The fear mongers are the biggest 'fraidy cats of 'em all.
He really banned us?
He banned everyone from commenting on his fear mongering propaganda bs….. he shut off comments and hid them. So instead everyone is bashing Substack on the announcement page where Sub announced making him a “writer in residence.” 😂😂😂
Oh I was there for that part. I just thought maybe we were actually banned from subscribing. I don’t want to subscribe but I was curious if that was truth or humor - I would believe both at this point!
I haven’t tried to subscribe, wouldn’t give him the time of day, I just went to his page for the entertainment - instead it’s just bs about getting Covid, get your booster, make sure big pharma owns your body. 😂. But he shut down and hid the entertainment which is always in the comments on Sub. Apparently he thinks he’s still on twatter. 😂
"Suck-stack".
His bill is exactly what you would expect!!! The variant of the day is “ominous.” Claims of reinfection rates doubling with zero context that reinfection rates are astronomically low compared to frequent “breakthrough” infections. He’s pushing vaccines while discussing the importance of t-cell antibodies when the vaccines are failing because they aren’t producing a t-cell response. After talking about the importance of t-cell antibodies he shifts back to disproven assertions that because a booster increases B-cell antibody levels to an extinct spike protein in blood samples that boosters will provide protection against a new variant with 30 mutations in the spike protein. He talks about mild symptoms in those previously vaccinated/ boostered/ previously infected + vaccinated being mild, but fails to mention the variant was found to be equally mild in previously unvaccinated and not previously infected people who got it at the same time.
And of course he turned off the comments again to censor people from being able to ask these valid questions about his unsupported and unknowable assertions.
Oh, but have bo fear, he says all we need is more shots and boosters and variant specific boosters!!!!! Because Pfizer and big pharma are at risk of loosing customers from their opioid lifetime subscription plans ao they need a new stream of subscription revenue!!!!!
Two kinds of people in the world -- those who recognize the scam, and those who don't. Problem is we have too many these days who can't recognize the scam. The real solution isn't protecting the marks from the scam, but helping them learn to recognize it. Teach a man to fish...

Sweet!
Where do I find this page?
I posted the link to the announcement above. You can click on his thread at the bottom. He now has 2 articles with the comments on both turned off and hidden. 😂😂😂😂😂. This is day 1 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Thanks for the link so I could express my displeasure. It seems like he's having a rough couple days! 😄😄 He has a more discriminating audience here on substack. 👍🏼
as an anecdote: I now know three people, personally, who I believe are vaccine injured (one my father, one a co-worker, one a mother of a co-worker.) Dad had a stroke 6 weeks post shot (went to the ER with non-specific and undiagnosed chest pain at shot + 4 weeks), co-worker's mom had a stroke 2 hrs post shot, co-worker was in 6th day recovering from COVID and got the shot and went down hill, landing in the hospital for 10 days on oxygen. None of these three are in VAERS.
Why would your co-worker get the vax after recovering from covid? That was just plain stupid, but also a result of lying media and govt.
I was “plain stupid”. Had covid January 2021. Asymptomatic, continued my normal workout routine, was of course ask to stay home by my employer, my husband had only fatigue and low grade fever. We survived. He works for the government so was forced to get the jab. (I refuse to call it a vaccination). Why did I do it? Cuz we planned a short cruise and in order to board ship I had to show proof. I’m so disappointed in myself.
My son and his family have not gotten the jab. They did have covid and survived. He has two kids 5 and 3. His 5 year old started kindergarten this year. A former teacher started a private school, for families who did not want there kids to have to wear masks day in and day out. Grandson loves it and is thriving. I’m glad my son has the balls to protect his family from the BS.
I refuse to take it the shot. I learned far too much about this pandemic since March of 2020. I did an analysis for TracyBeanz in March of 2020 using CDC data for "influenza like illness" or ILI. I was among the first to find evidence of outbreak in the US in November of 2019 in the areas surrounding Seattle Tacoma and BWI airports. These are key beause the troops returning from the military games held in Wuhan in October of 2019 returned through those airports. Some other participants returned through NYC and Heathrow airport in London. There was also a "spike" in unknown ILI in London around that time. I was also one of the first to find the research papers from 2007 showing gain-of-function research conducted in Wuhan and elsewhere. They deliberately attached the S-protein from HIV onto SARS in order to better attach to the ACE-2 receptors in lung tissue. The claim was that this was necessary to develop "vaccines" for SARS-1. We now know better.
Back in late 2019, I noticed many posts from the west coast folks complaining of a terrible flu. Symptoms all sounded alike. Some got tested, all said not the flu. No doctor raised a red flag. That is what really bugged me. Zero curiosity or lack of alert system. Many just said they did not know what it was. Nobody in the beginning was asking officials to make an announcement of certainty. Our politicians ask very few intelligent questions. Doctors have just stayed quiet. Media made a decision early to embellish this virus to harm Trump. They sold fear. People did little investigating themselves. I have many nurse friends that took jab and still refuse to ask any questions. It is bizarre behavior.
In November of 2019 a weird "flu" was going around on the UC Davis campus in California. This school has a very high number of Chinese students, many from the Wuhan area. Students including my son got sick and the doctors in the UC Davis health center were puzzled by it, didn't know what it was or what to do for it and just said that "something weird is going around". My son and his girlfriend were pretty sick (he described it as "gnarly") for a couple of weeks. His girlfriend had a more difficult time as she has asthma. She ended up in the ER one night and was put on a nebulizer with some sort of steroid treatment, and they also gave her.....drum roll....ivermectin. She was under the weather for about a month. When more definite news of covid came out in early 2020, they started to think they must have had covid. Never got tested, though, because at the time they were sick no testing at all was being done.
Everything you need to know (and some things you may not want to know) is right here. Share this far and wide.

I'm just north of Seattle. Did you find any linkage to the Kirkland long term care facility outbreak?
The SF Bay area was whacked by a nasty respiratory flu in the fall of 2019.
Yes, criminal mad scientists like Fauci always have a reason for their evil, insane experiments. That's why we have laws and treaties against biological warfare that he obviously ignored and rejected. "Lock him up!"
I know SO many people who had a horrible “flu” in December 2019 - February 2020. I didn’t have my 12 year son tested for flu as I just assumed that was it. I still wonder if it was COVID. My husband and I went on Tamiflu immediately as we had a 20th anniversary trip planned. Our 15 year old never got it either.
I remember seeing your ILI analysis for Tracy.
Love your Telegram channel!
Thank you for your research.
You are standing up for freedom now, so God Bless.
I empathize with you and what you must be feeling. I have remained steadfast in my opposition to the jab from day 1-but I also recognize the unrelenting pressure to which others like you have succumbed...I understand how that has come to be...it’s not your fault so don’t beat yourself up...I hold the media, our elected officials, Fauxi, and weak, uneducated medical professionals/physicians, completely responsible for what you are going through. Dr. Mercola has written about how to take care of yourself if you now regret getting the jab. Be well 😊
Kudos to that teacher!
Have you or your husband felt any different in any way after getting The Jab? Did an old illness or previous physical malady flair up after getting it. I know two people in their early 60’s who got it and one, a male, ended up in hospital with neurological issues, the other, a female, with serious vision loss. Neither one had had any health issues in these areas before. Just curious.
It is good to show mercy to one's self, especially when we recognize our mistake.
Your son is a GOOD man !
I'm shocked that whoever gave him the shot didn't ask/notice that he was recovering. His immune system was already battling COVID and then it got assaulted with the injection, a one-two punch. I've been telling everyone at work "Vitamin D, C, Zinc, Quercetin. And that's it"
A teacher in TX who was very proud vax got Covid this summer. Instead of treatment she got a booster shot and died.
Every place on the planet, including the US, has shown the shot suppresses one’s immune system and it’s very dangerous to get within a week of exposure (exposure from a week before to a week after). When my parents got their first shot in January there were warning signs “do not get a Covid vaccine if you have recently recovered from Covid, if you currently have symptoms of Covid, or if you have recently had extended contact with someone who has, or might have Covid.”
There is no vaccine you should take while actively infected or if you’ve already recovered.
Yet as we push mass jabs that seems to have all disappeared without exination
This was the case with my 70-year old co-worker. A few people in the office were sick with something mild; he caught it, and was recovering. Someone convinced him to get the shot. He and his wife both did. He went from stable/recovering to hospitalized within days. Both he and his wife were hospitalized at the same time. Whoever advised him to get the shot, and whoever administered it, caused two people grave harm. I hope to see him back at work soon, we all miss him and we need him at work.
It’s happened to a lot of people. Excepting one fully vaccinated friend in her mid 40’s who is very overweight, the rest of the people I know who got really sick that are between 30-50 got very sick very shortly after getting a shot - and yet they keep telling people to get “vaccinated” in the middle of outbreaks when they should be telling them to get sunlight, take some vitamin D, and get some exercise. So nutty. Worse is how many people hand their brains to big pharma and Brandon rather than thinking for themselves.
One cannot expect medical staff to watch out for you. Each person bears their own responsibility for that.
Except they won’t let us.
I’m on that and haven’t had a cold in 2 years.
I know 3 healthy fully vaccinated fathers between 41 and 50 who have dropped dead since October 1st of this year. None are in VAERS because it happened more than 2 weeks after their second shot……
You've got it twisted around. Injuries that occur within two weeks of getting vaccinated cannot be reported as vaccine-related because of the CDC's Big Pharma-serving definition of "vaccinated". You see, one is not vaccinated until two weeks after s/he has received two Pfizer/Moderna shots or one J & J shot.
I am so ANGRY about these games they play with the data. 😡
The games they are playing with our lives.
People who get sick with Covid prior to 2-weeks post 2nd (or maybe now 3rd) shot are unvaccinated. Conversely, if an adverse reaction happens more than 10-14 days after the shot then The Party claims it can’t possible be related to the vaccine (and even if it occurs within the 10-14 days it only might be the jab if it’s J&J shot)…
This is the thing: based upon the claimed "safety" profile, one should (statistically) not know anyone who was harmed by these experimental injections; even if we each "knew" 10,000 people. And yet both of us know three people. This tells you the odds of injury are much higher than claimed.
Multiple the VAERS figures by at least ten.
the evidence that I have personally seen argues that some multiplier is definitely justified.
From what I understand, it has traditionally been the case that only about 10% of vaccine-related injuries and deaths make it into the VAERS database. Call me a pessimistic, but I am convinced that far fewer Covid vaccine-related injuries and deaths are being reported than is usually the case.
There is zero incentive for medical professionals to report adverse reactions because there is no monetary carrot being dangled in front of their faces; and, evidently, neither the Hippocratic Oath they took nor their own personal moral compass (assuming any of them still have one) influences how they practice.
I heard some of the large hospital systems are actually encouraging doctors not to report.
Bingo ! That's what everyone should pay close attention to; "zero INCENTIVE for reporting adverse reactions"..... what ever happened to "trust...... BUT VERIFY", BEFORE JUST blindly accepting everything you see in print and hear on TV and radio ? Had "thinking" and "verifying" just gone completely out of fashion ? ?
Wasn't Harvard hired to do a study on what percentage of AE's are actually reported to VAERS? I thought they found the number was 1. 1% of AE's are reported.
I've heard and read that it is quite time consuming and one needs all the exact batch numbers for vaccines received.
Steve Kirsch has Analysen the data and Code to the conclusion, that the multiplier is 42 for anaphylactic shock.
39606 is the reported number up through 11-19. Times 42 = 1,623,452 actual
I have read up to 41 times for all adverse reactions = 913,268 x 41 = 37,443,988 which is 11.3% of the entire U.S. population of 330 million. Actually vaccinated with one dose = 234,269,053 means about 16% of all vaccinated have had adverse reactions. If this follows for the deaths 597,308 / 234,269,053 = 10.7% of all vaccinated people die from the vaccination within a few weeks, most within a few days. This does not include the many long term illnesses that will lead to early death.
Note that this number is fast approaching the number of supposed deaths by covid. In England, the fully vaccinated are twice as likely to die from any cause than the unvaccinated, or 200% greater.
experts say 31 or 41 times
https://vaersanalysis.info/2021/12/01/vaers-summary-for-covid-19-vaccines-through-11-19-2021/
913,268 adverse reactions noted on VAERS through 11-19-21 (more than last 31 years for all vaccines)
19,249 deaths (more than twice the number of deaths reported on VAERS for the last 31 years)
Two statistical experts ran the numbers for UNDERREPORTING. One figured you should multiple the numbers by 31. The other said 41.
You do the math....or I will for you: 597,308 deaths
Yes, for ANY one person to KNOW THREE people in their own personal circle of friends, harmed by, who got reaction from, or even died as a result of these experimental vaccines is truly MIND BENDING. I agree, we should each have to personally know at least 10,000 individuals to make this even remotely possible. Do people EVEN STOP TO THINK RATIONALLY ABOUT HOW ALL THESE COVID "FACTS" ARE DETERMINED ? By what method/methods they are determined ?
Pharma counted on adverse reactions including death would not be immediate in many cases making it hard to tie to vaccine.
my friend's husband died, 'dead in bed' april 2021 right after vaccines came out. she's a nurse so I'm sure she got them vaxxed right up... the 'dead in bed' thing has been a common theme. no one at the funeral discussed any possibility of the vax. it just was.
I know a young father who died this summer, but no one ever talked about cause of death. It was sudden and very unexpected. Sad and odd.
I'm starting to note how many "died unexpectedly" and "died suddenly" reports are coming across my FB timeline from friends who report on family deaths, along with posts about "rare, aggressive cancers," "fast growing tumors," and cancers returning after being in remission for years. It's sad.
There is no incentive or consequence for hospitals or medical staff to report reactions to VAERS and the system is cumbersome and time-consuming, and doesn't allow data to be saved until submitted at the very end of the report. If the internet wobbles, you can lose it all and have to start all over. It takes about 30 minutes to fill out a report.
The good news is that anyone can fill out these reports. You could fill one out for your dad. Your co-worker could fill one out for her mom and one for herself.
Just be prepared for the 30 minute ride to bureaucratic insanity (look on VAERS to see what kind of info they'll want from you before starting and collect it all within easy reach).
THey made VAERS difficult on purpose. I read that in either Alex's B's book or Robert Kennedy's book.
Not one resident wants to do a retrospective study or keep data
It is weird to say, but medical staff in our hospitals lack curiosity. We assume they know much more than they do. They never ask “why”? As I have posted many times, I have aggressive cancer. I have had cancer for almost 30 years. Obviously I have been exposed to many doctors, nurses, techs all over the country. Also in the past year had a major accident. Got to see how the ER works, specialists, etc. One tech very opinionated and curious. Privately told me things to ask doc about but do not tell doc he gave that advice. Nurses seem angry. They are overworked. ER docs not information forthcoming. When I got to specialists, more curiosity. My case was messy and needed some thinking.
First, there has to be an acknowledgment that what they're seeing is a vaccine injury, and not "a new strain of COVID" or "psychosis." There has been a lot of diagnosing people with mental health problems instead of treating for blood clots and cardiac injuries. There has also been a lot of lying going on about this from hospital spokesmen and denial of reality and refusal to treat any resulting symptoms from ER personnel, and so on.
If you are less than 14 days out from your 2nd dose, you're considered unvaxxed--so that complicates all of this too.
And hospitals really don't want staff filing these reports. If they're caught filing them on the clock, they're reprimanded.
There are whistleblowers speaking out via video on places like Rumble and Bitchute and Tiktok (and even the odd Youtube video) to say that the number of injuries is overwhelming. Most of the people in hospital now, even newborns and infants, are exhibiting signs of vaccine injury. No one has enough hours in the day to properly file the reports.
Thanks
Exactly
I know several people who have had heart attacks, stroke, water on the brain, and water on the heart after their 2nd shot. The Doctors have dismissed their claims of Vaccine Injury and will not contact VAERS. Unfortunately they haven't contacted VAERS on their own either.
My dad suffered a brain bleed that put him in the hospital/rehab for more than six weeks. The cause is "unknown". There was no underlying disease. While he is back home and mobile, his ability to read, write and speak coherently is damaged. It remains to be seen what he can eventually recover. 4 weeks after his J&J shot, he had "chest pains" and went to the ER. A battery of tests revealed nothing. Two weeks later he collapsed with a massive bleed. He got the shot because he was afraid Biden would remove his military health benefits. He took it under coercion.
Prayers.
There is so much sadness, tragedy, and personal suffering and heartache connected to all this mass vaccination, and sadly, most suffer in isolation and silence. Fear and intimidation: loose your job, your livelihood, loose your military health care benefits, loose your right to higher education, loose your friends and family and become a "leaper", an outcast from society.... the world will weep collectively at some point in the future over what we have done to ourselves and our society.
Terrible.
Get ready to file a lawsuit or join one. I feel like Sidney Powell is representing veterans.
🙏
My mom had a stroke after the Moderna vaccine. She didn’t survive it, but they said it was a “coincidence”. She was 86, and this happened in early January 2021. I was immediately suspicious but it was so early on.
They should be accountable… follow the silent 💰
I also have 6 close friends and relatives injured from vax.. One or two could be coincidental but not ALL of them. I have a very small circle of friends btw.
same here; my circle of friends, family and colleagues is relatively small. This is why it is statistically unlikely that we should know so many people who were, or are suspected of being, injured by the injection. Do not use the word "v". It doesn't apply
My dad got a blood clot. Thank goodness it was in his leg.
I have read we should multiply VAERS reports 41 times for all adverse reactions = 913,268 x 41 = 37,443,988 which is 11.3% of the entire U.S. population of 330 million. Actually vaccinated with one dose = 234,269,053 means about 16% of all vaccinated have had adverse reactions. If this follows for the deaths 597,308 / 234,269,053 = 10.7% of all vaccinated people die from the vaccination within a few weeks, most within a few days. This does not include the many long term illnesses that will lead to early death.
Note that this number is fast approaching the number of supposed deaths by covid in US. In England, the fully vaccinated are twice as likely to die from any cause than the unvaccinated, or 200% greater. The overall death rate is up. Since the vax, we are seeing a rise in deaths around the world, I believe...first year of covid....no change.
What's the process for reporting to VAERS? I guess a hospital or some medical personnel must make the report for the patient? Is there not a way for an individual to report himself?
You can report for yourself. It’s just hard to do.
Lot of paperwork
It takes 45-60 min per report. Better if hospital staff does it but anyone can. It's a felony to lie on it.
It should also be a felony to lie to the American people about the vaccines, the virus origins, treatment, etc...!
Encourage them to report the injuries.
Thank you, Alex, for doing real investigative journalism
Even though knowing what is going on is important. There are certain values that should not be surrendered because that have a moral basis (like not forcing anyone to take a vaccine).
Interestingly , when a patient has a miscarriage, abnormal bleeding , abruption ect… I ask the resident if they have been vaccinated, if so when? The resident usually looks at me and asks why ? I’m so disappointed ☹️.
Have you seen a pattern?
Covid positive patients with comorbities seem to have issues,vaccinated or not .There are 2 physicians who vaccinate all pregnant patients in their group and yes they seem to have more miscarriages and abruptions.
Abortions?
It’s kind of like when they ask you at your mammogram if you are on birth control because they know the dirty little secret is that birth control is a known carcinogen.
Many are still asleep.
Scabs on their eyes
The population is signing themselves up for a very expensive big pharma subscription service. If they can make you get a shot every 3-6 months that causes heart and neurological damage, they make WAY more money than Apple could ever dream of
Have you seen this?
IT NEVER ENDS: U.K. says citizens will need “booster” shots every three months FOREVER in order to manage covid
https://www.newstarget.com/2021-12-08-uk-booster-shots-every-three-months-forever.html
😂. I saw they changed their definition of vaccinated to shots every 3 months. Why are our tax dollars funding big pharma dependency policies for everyone?????
Already the most profitable industry.
I had not seen that. Thank you for sharing the link. Insane!!!
And I am in the control group and Fauci wants all of us eliminated:
https://youtu.be/xKsNZiBVKs4
Why would “The Science” Fauci want “the control group” eliminated?!
Hmmmm……
I agree
ICD code for Covid:
FU-666
to funny!!!!
You win!!! Hilarious.
Ha-ha! Righteous!
Glad folks caught the twist.
Yes we coders see these codes. I just got notice last week that Medicare was beginning to audit Covid records. I cannot wait to see how much fraud went on with billing charts with Covid and they really had another condition that either caused their passing or caused their hospital visit
Friends in San Antonio lost their mother last year. Covid was on her death certificate and she didn't have it. They were livid and encouraged to file a complaint with Medicare.
Do you really think you or any other member of the public will see the results of those audits?
Yes hospitals got paid more for a Covid death
Yessss
Another question to pose...We are constantly being told the ER's are overrun. A Healthcare worker I know was hospitalized for a reaction to the FLU vaccine(yes, they've jacked that up this year as well !). While at the hospital she develops covid. She notices 13 empty rooms in the covid ward and asks her nurse what gives since the story is all the beds are filled. The nurse said they've been told by their superiors that they are full based on their current STAFFING levels - not the true number of beds available.
That "game" is being played all over the country without explanation. Existing staff shortages have been exacerbated by the vaccine mandates.
Personnel shortages are definitely part of it. But it is important to keep in mind that every year during peak flu season hospitals are swamped. It's just that the media do not make a big deal about it. Well, that is, prior to two years ago, they didn't. They simply relabeled the flu as Covid, showed a couple of images on the TV screen, and told everyone that the Bogeyman had come to get them.
You know? I'm old enough to remember when only children believed in the Bogeyman. I'd sure like to see things go back to being that way.
I agree that there is a seasonality aspect to this, whether you call it COVID or the flu. However, every time we hear about hospitals being overrun, by the fear mongering media that you alluded to, it is primarily to support the "pandemic of the unvaccinated" narrative, while ignoring the underlying facts that are politically and medically inconvenient.
As for the Bogeyman, I don't see him going away any time soon ~ he's a very useful tool.
It’s funny when we had all the seasonal flu deaths in the past no one declared it a pandemic!
Many died (who were old and developed a secondary bacterial pneumonia….mostly the old and infirmed), but suddenly!
Nobody tried to “mandate” flu vaccines (I am a Registered Nurse and never was told I “had” to get it until I was in New York State….so I left).
These “statistics” will bury them.
It is interesting to see how the definitions of pandemic and vaccine have evolved over time...
And antivaxxer.
Talked to two friends (both physicians at different hospitals) and my wife (physician assistant) about the staffing issue. From their perspective, this is a result of a large number of baby boomers retiring early. Morale at hospitals was sinking before the "pandemic" due to independent hospitals being gobbled up by large "non-profit" healthcare systems that have turned these hospitals into healthcare machines with no soul. These "non-profits" have executives that make millions but don't have to pay taxes. Meanwhile, they are pushing LEAN tactics and cost-cutting measures to improve the bottom line. Now, with all the BS surrounding COVID, the Boomers would rather retire early than live like this anymore. Throw in wearing masks all day and mandating vaccines, and you can see how this happened.
I get Becker's Hospital Review and it's amazing to see the number of articles about smaller (usually rural) hospitals closing or eliminating certain functions. And then there sickening articles about "executive moves". What a racket!
💰💰💰
So true
Yes, and I have had HCWs argue that that means that there are too many covid patients, and is NOT a result of vaccine mandates leading to reduced staff.
This is so true..
Not a coder, but: How did 29 million cases of flu fall to 1,675 in 20/21 (per CDC stats)? Is "Covid the flu?
I heard it was related to virus competition but have no idea if it's valid or even possible.
Flu stats have/were always been made up and are fake to scare people into getting the Fluvax.
It was either mask wearing or rebranding. Whichever...
🤔
T50.B95A is Adverse effect of Covid 19 vaccine.
T50.Z95A is vaccine or biological substance causing adverse effect in therapeutic use.
Do you know how those codes are impacting reimbursements? My sense is you're on the coding side.
General Comment: coders and billing departments are completely separate. The connection between what was coded and how it affected payments is a managerial-level reporting issue.
I am an ER physician and only see the front end of coding and billing when I list diagnoses and the billing code pops up. The coders and billers take over from there.
Have you heard anything on the impact on receivables? My sense is you are being "trained" in proper usage to maximize reimbursement (former UC manager, here.)
Our group subcontracts our services to a large hospital system. We do our own billing through an India based billing and coding company. I see the front end and am separated from the receivables until my paycheck arrives. In the beginning, we were "trained" to utilize the Covid diagnosis or Covid Concerns diagnosis early and often because reimbursement was quite high for any Covid-related diagnosis. Even now, before I enter any diagnosis I am prompted to consider the addition of a Covid-related diagnosis regardless of why the patient presented to the ER. I labeled myself early on as a heretic for questioning the ethics of this "prompting" because it reimbursed better.
I would inquire further about the impact on receivables, but because of asking uncomfortable questions of to senior officials within the system, I have been told to refrain from this behavior. I have lost all respect for who I work for and with and am trying to lay low until I find other opportunities to practice. The self-respect that is gone by not fighting more loudly is only somewhat balanced by quietly working around the the systems protocols for treating Covid with therapeutics that I feel my patients may benefit from that the system strictly prohibits.
I am Brit with no info on coding but just had to write and thank you for your tireless work. I work clinically within the NHS and am so grateful for your determination to get to the truth.
curious about this statistic: Of people that received the vaccine, how many got Covid after receiving the vaccine? With a "normal" vaccine like measles or mumps, of people that received the vaccine, what percentage of people actually came down with measles or mumps? If we knew that stat exactly, it would show people the efficacy of the vaccine.
The numbers are high. There is actually no valid research showing that the vaccine has any effect on stopping covid....none. Now invalid research...there is plenty of that. Liars among scientists are about the same as liars among politicians.
I think we ought to be held to the same standard Alex is trying to hold scientists to. Real data. Not just, "the numbers are high". What's high? Skip the fact that some people are telling big fibs. Data as Alex B has shown in the past punctures the lies.
I read the stats that came out from Massachusetts months ago from their own health department relating to "break through" cases. It showed that clearly vaxxed people were still getting covid, even going to the hospital, and even dying.
Here is yesterday's headline: Massachusetts coronavirus breakthrough cases surge 11,321 last week, smashing record high for the state
61 breakthrough deaths were reported
Yup, if you see their lips moving...they are lying. Fauci,et al.
Jesuit degrees seem to afford a poor qualification as "scientist".
My husband worked in an ER up until November 12th (when vaccine mandate went into effect). He said about half of his Covid admits were vaccinated. Now he works at an urgent care and regularly sees vaccinated testing positive for Covid. He doesn't believe the shots work at all.
This is the best way to get the truth, from others who work in the middle of all this. Call it heresay and not data … I don’t care . They fry whistleblowers.
This is a great anecdote, but we need actual data.
We don't get the luxury of seeing actual data in this pandemic (that's why we're all here). I was offering the closest thing to it-real world experience. Best I can do. Good luck with your search though.
Is it ok to post anecdotal information? Or will you allow people to contribute their personal experiences absent sourced data, footnotes, etc?
Anecdotes help tell the story, objective data and statistics prove the story
This is NOT a vaccine and offers NO long term protection from getting C19--only a possible reduction in symptoms. Monoclonal antibodies work better at reducing problems.
You missed the memo. In September of this year the CDC changed the definition of vaccine so that people would stop calling Fraudci a liar. Unlike traditional vaccines, modern vaccines (which are supposed to be superior to traditional vaccines) do not confer immunity to the diseases they are designed to make you more vulnerable to, er, I mean, protect you from. And, as we can clearly see, the level of protection they offer is worse than no protection at all. But I digress...
Thinking about it, why is anyone up in arms about Aaron Rodgers - he 100% had a vaccine under the new definition of vaccine. He just did not have an *approved* vaccine.
Did he say he was vaccinated by an unapproved vaccine (? Which one? Sputnik? LOL!
I haven't been paying attention. I just assumed that Aaron was smart enough to not get the jab at all, approved or otherwise.
Love your hat, btw!
He said he was immunized.
I remember him saying that. But I have not been paying any attention to sports lately, so I thought that perhaps he had elaborated on how he came to be immunized.
There you, “approved” is the operative word. It does not matter what you do or don’t do nor the results as long as it is approved.
I don't care about what we think about the vaccine, but it certainly helps to compare and contrast results with conventional vaccines to compare and contrast. That gives you great perspective
I think the vaccine is a bioweapon and will effective kill and injure millions. It has already killed more people in some countries than covid.
Yep. Like here in the USA. If you want a decent estimate of the number of vaccine-related injuries and deaths, multiply the current VAERS figures by at least 10.
I've heard from two experts about that number. One said multiply the VAERS numbers by 31 and the other said 41. Both were experts in this field relating to the statistics.
Considering no one has died from Covid, as it does not exist anywhere outside of the minds of the brainwashed sheeple, it would difficult for the vaccines to not be more deadly than than the non-existent virus.
Well, people don't die of the flu either, it's usually complications DUE to the flue [i.e., pneumonia] or in this case, with the heavily lab modified coronavirus, the souped-up spike protein causes some people's immune system to go into a sudden cytokine storm which once in action is a real helluva internal war to calm down. Auto-immune diseases like eczema, lupus etc. can do the same thing. :( That's why early treatments and supplements [NOT fraudulent 'vaccines'] are so important to stave off and stop the storm. <--I'm speaking from my own research and learning from reading and experience with my own autoimmune disease and not claiming to be medical expert though!
You are correct about what actually kills people. But it does not change the fact that the flu exists. Genomic sequencing of the Influenza A and Influenza B viruses has been done. Genomic sequencing of Covid has not been done. As a result, no one can truthfully say that Covid exists.
You may respond, well, on the flip side, no one can say that Covid does not exist. And I would have to agree with you. However, ask yourself why the NWOers would waste time, money, and resources creating a virus when all they have to do is use the communications media they own to convince people by shoving the desired narrative down their throats all day, everyday 1,000 times a day that there is a really, really bad virus out there. They wouldn't and they didn't.
There are some eminent scientists who recognized the virus as an altered corona virus, normally only found in animals.
Unless and until at least a partial genomic sequencing of this "virus" is completed, we'll all just have to take the honorable word of Big Pharma and its agents in the media and government; something I'm not willing to do for reasons that should be readily obvious.
Would a reduction in symptoms include not dying? Well, better throw out that lie.
One resource you might turn to for assistance in finding this info might be ChildrensHealthDefense (dot) org. (Robert F. Kennedy Jr's website) The Defender has posted extensively in the past about the downsides of the MMR and other similar vaccines.
After this experience, if I had my daughter today, I wouldn’t do ANY vaccines
Here’s one recent data set:
552 Fully Vaccinated Oregon Residents Died of COVID, Half Received Pfizer Vaccine
“Of the total number of deaths, 273 people had been fully vaccinated with the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine. At least 144 received the Moderna vaccine and 78 were given the Johnson & Johnson shots, according to data from the Oregon Health Authority.”

You can’t trust anyone who turns off comments. Don’t know who this asshat is. Admits he’s not a virologist, immunologist etc. sounds like an administrator like Anthony Feces.
He ran Medscape. https://www.medscape.com/author/eric-topol
Cringe “ Dr. Topol works on genomic and wireless digital innovative technologies to reshape the future of medicine.”
“I would class myself as a layman, but someone who holds an interest in the transhumanist advances in all ranges of science and technology.”
—book review by someone named Eric Topol MD on Amazon
Is this guy a transhumanist?
I just saw that , I couldn’t believe comments were shut off
What an assclown
I don't mean to stick up for this jerk, but just because he isn't A virologist, etc. doesn't mean he lacks qualifications to discuss Covid. The MSM did the same "he's not a virologist, he's not this or that" to marginalize Scott Atlas. Let's marginalize Topol by demonstrating his positions are erroneous.
Still trying to get a copy of Dr. Scott Atlas’ book into my hot hands.
Let me know if you get a copy! And send a hostage video with it in your hot hands! Ha!
I have a Kindle copy. Am half way through. Fascinating look at the inner workings of the WH Task Force and its key players.
Know for a fact that my sister In-Laws neighbor died of cancer but death certificate said covid. His widow was quite upset about it.
Hi Alex. I just read this op-ed in the NYT from an ER doc in Michigan, the state I live in. If you or anyone you're aware of is able to respond to the op-ed and the sources it links to for data, I'd encourage you to publish that response. Thanks.
I’m an E.R. Doctor in Michigan, Where Unvaccinated People Are Filling Hospital Beds, Dec. 8, 2021
By Rob Davidson, an emergency physician in a rural area of West Michigan, which is experiencing a Covid surge.
https://www.nytimes.com/2021/12/08/opinion/covid-michigan-surge.html
This may well be worth addressing. A quick dive into Dr. Rob Davidson reveals he is anything but apolitical source of medical information...
I hope you do. The latest attack strategy in Michigan is to blame the unvaccinated for hospitals being at capacity. A variation on them being full because of horse paste overdoses maybe. If they're so worried, why not talk about vitamin d, mouth & nasal rinse, quercetin, zinc, etc. And how long can they ignore natural immunity? This is terrible science and bad medicine.
That crap in Michigan is so that 2 giant hospital systems will merge and have to kiss Whitmer and Dana Nessel ‘s Back end
Alex, you know as well as anybody, and better than most, the nature of the game this quack and his fellow ducks are playing. He's tired of his rinky dink rural digs. He wants to move on up to that deluxe office on the top floor of the Pfizer building.
Yes, I'm pretty sure he ran for a congressional seat as a Dem several years ago, maybe even more recently. I don't know much beyond that. But as someone who was a lifelong Dem (but now Independent), it's still hard for me to believe he's outright lying vs. responding to some distortions in the system of tracking vaccine status or something else I'm not understanding. The data he links to seems so very different from the more reliable tracking data from the UK, Israel, etc.
I guess I was struck by his claim to be speaking from direct experience. But if he's relying on Remdesivir and putting people on ventilators, as so many docs are, then he's helping to kill people, regardless of their vaccination status.
Thank you all for your comments and links. I'll check out the links and read the op-ed again more carefully (e.g., the first time I didn't catch things like "nonsense about lifelong immunity and unproven cures.") I guess I'm still adjusting to the reality that people I hoped won an election several years ago can be blind drunk on the Kool-Aid.
Thanks again everyone and thanks Alex for your research, writing, leadership, hard work and courage.
Pandemia, indeed...more contagious than the virus.
12/10 update: Alex, it looks like Eric Starkman also is looking into Dr Davidson and Michigan's "the unvaccinated are filling the hospitals" stories. Very interesting story: https://starkmanapproved.com/fox-news-and-michigans-covid-crisis/
I'm also in Michigan. Check this out: https://starkmanapproved.com/beaumont-healths-unvaccinated-pandemic/ After the parking-lot-filled-with-gun-shot-victims-due-to-horse-paste-poisonings viral "news" story, I do not believe much of anything anymore. I have identified some tropes: the regretful dying unvaccinated person trope, which has been going around for months, and now this one, which I have seen before. I'm not saying that any specific report is true or untrue, I just suspect full on pharma jive first of all.
I am in Michigan and have a relative that works for a large company. He receives email notifications whenever anyone at his location is diagnosed with covid. That notification always says whether that person is vaccinated. The majority who have covid are vaccinated.
That is great data!
Thank you. This was very good. There's so many of these stories about Michigan I'm starting to wonder if Whitmer is behind it.
What a political hack.
"I often feel full of trauma, guilt and despair. I’m mad at the Fox News personalities and the Republican politicians who downplay vaccination. I’m frustrated with people who aren’t doing more to protect themselves and their loved ones."
Yes, because the 40% of the black community in America who don't want the vaxxes take their marching orders from Fox News and the GOP.
Say, Doctor Rob, if someone wanted to do "more to protect themselves and their loved ones", would you write a prescription for HCQ or Ivermectin for them and their loved ones?
We don't know the answer to that question...but really, we DO know.
He's bucking for a nice cushy job working for the NIH. He and his kind will be dealt with post-revolution.
A serious ER doctor would NEVER state: "nonsense about lifelong natural immunity and unproven cures". It's not nonsense - it's a fact. This looks more like propaganda to me then a real life doctor. By now science is quite clear about naturally acquired immunity as being vastly superior. This fact is indisputable just downplayed courtesy of dr. Fauci von Science.
It appears all of this mess is actually his private war on natural immunity.
You're not supposed to remember that your entire life you have been being told the truth about the superiority of natural immunity over vaccine-produced immunity. You were supposed to been so terrified of their doomsday prognosis that you forgot everything you had ever learned prior to the arrival of the greatest threat to human existence there has ever been.
Let me help out as I see that you are in need of a little, shall we say, re-education.
1. There is no such thing as natural immunity.
2. There is no such thing as immunity.
3. Therefore, there is no such thing as herd immunity.
4. The vaccine is the only manner of rescuing humanity from this murderous menace.
5. However, the vaccine does not offer very strong protection and what little protection it confers is fleeting.
6. Therefore, it is incumbent upon all of us (for our protection and that of everyone else) that we get a full regiment of jabs and boosters as they become available.
7. The jabs and boosters for one variant are not effective protection against newer variants.
8. Therefore, as new vaccines and boosters are rolled out to combat new variants, everyone is going to have to get a whole new set of jabs and boosters.
9. There will always be new variants - for after all of the letters of the Greek alphabet have been used, they use Chinese characters.
Got it? Good!
Yes, everyone has forgotten anything they learned before 2019. There are reasons we have not used masks against viruses in the hundred years between the Spanish flu and the panic. There are reasons why we have never locked down the entire planet to combat a pandemic. There are reasons why ventilators were not used as early interventions. There are reasons why we have not done any of this one this scale. Yet, for some reason, all of that was forgotten by early 2020.
So, pot destroys short-term memory and fear destroys long-term memory; and, together, they render the mind blank.
Pot use in Japan is not common. This is a world wide issue.
Sorry TS. I was just trying to inject (pun intended) a little humor into the dialogue.
Here's an unpaywalled PDF copy of the column from my Dropbox:

Thanks so much for making this available.
"When asked if he’d been vaccinated, he snapped back, “I don’t approve of the vaccine.”"
Ahhh, so this is an editorial, not a dispassionate factual account. Good to know.
"A few days later, a young patient sick with Covid-19 was admitted with dangerously low blood oxygen levels. His spouse and infant child came in to say goodbye just before he was sedated and intubated. “I don’t think I’ll see you again,” he said. He died before the end of the week. He was unvaccinated."
Hey Doctor Rob, how about a little more information. Like, how many (if any) comorbidities did he have? And, did you try Ivermectin on him? And nowadays "unvaccinated" needs clarification. Did he only have one shot, or only have two shots, or only have two shots and only one booster, or no shots?
See, you aholes have so bastardized and perverted language and data that NOTHING you say has any credibility anymore.
To be safe, just don’t get any vaccines. I’m right now rewatching the documentary “VAXXED”. It’s horrifying how corrupt our 3-letter health agencies are. Can’t trust a thing they say or do.
I might make an exception if a rabid animal bit me, or I got a puncture wound with manure on the nail or whatever. Even then, go antigen-free (both air and food) for a while. Otherwise, vaccines don't seem to be a good idea.
Sounds wise!
I totally agree. To give us all of the information would enable us to make educated decisions regarding our health. They don’t want that. Their mantra is-COVID kills - get the shot ! Fear is their weapon of choice.
Well said.
He's cleverly folding the full hospitals issue into unvaccinated patients sick with covid so you think they are related. This column (https://igorchudov.substack.com/p/medias-false-fear-about-michigan) does a good job of responding to a different article. He showed the number of covid cases were the same as a year ago, but the overall census was higher and mandate caused staffing shortages.
If only it were the case that the source of information were irrelevant...
Hmmm

Hi, I’m a coder in the US. We don’t currently have U12.9 in the US ICD-10 CM version. We can use the T code but doctors have to link the vaccine to the presenting problem. I work for hospitals all over US and can tell it hardly ever happens.
Perfect , I hope Alex sees this .
Bad news. They are gonna eventually jab us all. Job mandates, flight mandates, travel mandates. It’s all coming. Welcome my son, to the machine.
Not if you're an illegal immigrant in the USA.
Yeah, my family and I are not going down without a fight.
SAME 👊👊👊
Not happening here. There will be violent repercussions amongst the last 10 million.
I will never get jabbed.
Wanna bet?
Yeppers
They can jab me when I am dead!
I am in a SERIOUS control group!
That's my fear also. Flight and travel. I'm retired, so only worry that the horror that DeBlasio wants for NYC will spread nationwide - not government mandates but mandates from private companies. (Encouraged by government). A court won't help us then.
Alex: this came from a local (Oregon) contact of mine on FB. --- "I do use those codes. You may have typed U12.9 incorrectly as that is not in my 2022 books. Here's the problem with using those codes. We can only code what the doctor SAYS. we cant automatically correlate the two. I do use the adverse effect code....but can only if it's stated as such. I will tell you right now that the information is being suppressed or not even investigated. The ones I have seen have only been because the family is INSISTING the possible correlation be investigated. PS: I have proton email as well." I've also shared this substack link to encourage her to sign up.
Alex getting to the heart of the matter - again. Onward!!
I always look at what impacts reimbursement.
My mantra: “follow the money.”
I don't do coding but after defending serious personal injury cases for over 20 years, I read enough medical and hospital records and invoices etc... to get the general gist of the significance of the issue re hospital records
Alex, on a related note to data coding, have you seen the Mathew Crawford note on VAERS miscoding....such as doing things like entering 726 deaths in a single entry? https://roundingtheearth.substack.com/p/disturbing-details-about-vaccine?token=eyJ1c2VyX2lkIjo0NTk3NjAwOCwicG9zdF9pZCI6NDQ4MjA3NjMsIl8iOiJqcG8yNiIsImlhdCI6MTYzOTAwNzg5NSwiZXhwIjoxNjM5MDExNDk1LCJpc3MiOiJwdWItMjk1Nzc2Iiwic3ViIjoicG9zdC1yZWFjdGlvbiJ9.g2XaAQZE264Y9JSl4uv9MUixTDAJumVfTz98mu4cT_I
That is truly disturbing.
I highly doubt the medical mainstream is looking for, much less documenting, vaccine side effects. Strokes, heart attacks, other vascular disorders...those happen all the time. Why would they venture outside the lines and document something like that in a patients chart? They might privately wonder, but I don't think they'd put it in writing.
Because they're legally required to?
Talking about the vaccine not working!!
Here is one of several articles that are just now being reported that shows that cancer patients MAY NOT get the protection from the COVID vaccines as expected. https://www.cancertherapyadvisor.com/home/cancer-topics/general-oncology/cancer-patients-double-risk-covid19-breakthrough-infection/?mpweb=1323-165465-7637569
I have incurable bone marrow cancer (multiple myeloma). I was diagnosed in 2018 and given 3-6 months to live. I rejected chemo because it would destroy my immune system. I got COVID in June 2021. I’m not vaccinated. The only reason I survived COVID without meds and without being hospitalized is because of my 10 Unconventional Cancer Protocols, which I created for myself in 2018 and have enhanced my “compromised” immune system that was a result of my bone marrow cancer. If I got jabbed with the COVID Vaccine, who knows if I would be thriving today or even dead!!!
By the way, Colin Powell had multiple myeloma as I have, but he was fully vaccinated and got COVID and died. I am sure he had chemo and did nothing to enhance his depressed immune system.
You are an inspiration!
Not sure if this posted here yet but, Dr. Malone in a Tweet posted this: https://dailytelegraph.co.nz/news/pfizer-document-concedes-that-there-is-a-large-increase-in-types-of-adverse-event-reaction-to-its-vaccine/ The truth is starting to come out.
Alex,
In our organizations, most all providers are now placing whether a patient is vaccinated or not (from their organization or some other place) in the H&P part of the chart so it can easily be data mined. Our COVID Dashboard tells us each day about inpatients that are in the house (within all of our Hospitals) and whether they are on a regular floor unit or in an ICU. If in ICU are they on a vent, have they been vaccinated or not, their age and their gender. If the patient had actual COVID (has antibodies) at some point and no vaccine or came in for another reason and yet are also exhibiting mild to moderate systems of COVID they are classified as a PUI or patient under investigation. We are tracking who does better, gets out faster and, and, and.. So that effort is being made, but on the clinical record (EMR) side.
On the coding side (and ICD codes are ALL about billing) this code is an ICD 10 code being utilized in part on the “Problem List” that a physician /provider documents for reimbursement purposes (only vaguely related to clinical documentation, but a necessary evil). Often recoded (or just coded) by a coder but physicians are supposed to provide the source data to arrive at the code.
This code has to do with the initial encounter of a patient who "experiences adverse effects from vaccines or other external causes like poison". Is it being used? I am sure it is, somewhere by someone. You do not get nearly as much money for reporting this adverse initial condition as saying they were admitted with COVID. So I expect the COVID admits dwarf this code, irrespective of what the actual real admission cause was. As you can imagine, for many patients, what they have is pretty muddy when they come in the door. People are not looking for vaccine reactions on admit, so they are not picked up as a matter of course. (Because the vaccines have no deleterious effects, of course, why look?)
Hope this is helpful.
In Colorado if you were vaccinated at the VA or at a DoD facility (military base), you'll be counted as unvaccinated because you're not in CIIS (Colorado Immunization Registry.)
They acknowledged this during our covid lottery.

Glenn Beck Exposes The “JOINTLY OWNED” Coronavirus Vaccine Between Moderna And US Gov (NIAID)
Glenn Beck recently obtained a copy of the 153 Page Confidential Agreement between Moderna and the U.S. Government, and it goes back to 2015.
Last year, it was reported by a few media outlets (see Axios) of such an agreement, but no physical evidence to reference from. Now Glenn Beck got his hands on it.
On page 104, the document shows a collaboration between the NIH, Moderna and Dr. Ralph Baric, whose signature appears on page 106 of the material transfer agreement.
The agreement was that the NIH transfers the mRNA tech to Dr. Baric. But look what they wanted to make clear: “mRNA vaccine candidates developed and jointly owned by the NIAID (National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases) and Moderna.”
Did you get that? The vaccine is co-owned by the government. So in other words, the same government that is mandating the vaccine, owns the vaccine and profiting from it. Conflict of interest much?
https://centipedenation.com/transmissions/glenn-beck-exposes-the-jointly-owned-coronavirus-vaccine-between-moderna-and-us-gov-niaid/
I will be in touch! I know what’s going on. I’m out to dinner. I want to open Pandora’s box!
For the first question Alex could check out the Highwire interview with Deborah Conrad, a physician assistant from upstate New York. According to her the hospital knew the vax status if the patient was vaxxed in the hospital system she worked for, but they did not know it, if they had gotten vaxxed somewhere else (pharmacy etc.)
...could the icd code be one added 2018; regarding adverse effect after vaccination?
Miss you girlie
So my doc required that I take a test because I use Ambien once in awhile. She said the government now requires it. That being said, the test is NOT FDA approved. Look at what they tested me for:
6-Acetylmorphone, urine Negative
Negative
AMPHETAMINES Negative
Negative
BARBITURATES Negative
Negative
BENZODIAZEPINES Negative
Negative
Buprenorphine screen, urine Negative
Negative
COCAINE Negative
Negative
OPIATES Negative
Negative
EDDP, urine Negative
Negative
OXYCODONE Negative
Negative
FENTANYL Negative
Negative
The US Food and Drug Administration has not approved or cleared this test, however, FDA clearance or approval is not currently required for clinical use. The results are not intended to be used as a sole means for clinical diagnosis or patient management decisions.
I am in Los Angeles and my UCLA doctors have given me Ambien for many years. I’ll admit on my last visit my doctor tried to talk me out of it, but she gave it to me without any demand for a test. (Except for routine labs which came back fine).

As a hospitalist in labor and delivery, there is only positive or negative for Covid. Vaccinated or not vaccinated doesn’t seem to be part of the coding that I see but I will ask.
Alex what my daughter in IT at a major Dallas hospital was able to provide on the codes -
Well, I don’t see U12.9 in our EMR at all (meaning it can’t be used cause it’s not there). We get official ICD-10 files to load every couple months or so, so all I can say is maybe this is a very new code or something. I see the other one though, it’s basically an adverse reaction to a vaccine, but I feel like I shouldn’t look to see if it’s being used cause I’m not really supposed to do that. But since it’s not even specific to Covid I’m sure it gets used some. I wouldn’t know what the coding guidelines are around it though. Usually what the coder will say is they can’t code it unless it’s specifically documented by the doctor, but there are other rules they have to go by too.
Hope it helps somewhat.
Alex, along with Glenn Greenwald and Bari Weiss the only ones fighting the narrative of the legacy media. For a deeper dive into the "Truth Squad" go to mikeboyd.substack.com.
Glenn Greenwald was part of the decision to elevate Eric Topol to "writer is residents." And just to prove the over 900 commentors bashing that decision correct on the announcement page, Topol propagandized for big pharma in his first and only article, and then turned off and hid all comments effectively censoring all questions about his propoganda.
Is that right about Glenn? How do you know?
Alex please report on the concentration camp like lockdowns in Australia. The mandatory forced vaccines in Germany and Austria and essentially Canada. The New World Order is here.
When big tech can ban the President of The United States from social media, who is really running the country. Welcome my son, to the machine.
https://stevekirsch.substack.com/p/eric-topol-is-now-a-writer-in-residence
Looks like Steve has started digging. Maybe the connection will come out?
Oh boy. Doesn't sound like Glenn would be part of a decision like this, but one sadly doesn't really know these days.
Very rare even to see mean and median age of covid deaths when doing a basic online search.
I would like to compare to the average adult's age of death.
Really glad you finally got a Protonmail account and dumped the gmail.
"protonmail.com (more secure than Google)…"
Possibly, but I wouldn't trust them, I'm sure you've seen this already:
"ProtonMail Gives Up Logs on User, Then Scrubs Website of No IP Logging Claims"
https://restoreprivacy.com/protonmail-logs-users/
But reading the entire article, if one has a VPN, then it defeats logs.
For reference, ICD-10 codes are diagnosis codes that healthcare uses to track diagnoses and for reimbursement purposes.
U12. 9 COVID-19 vaccines causing adverse effects in therapeutic use, unspecified.
T50.Z95A: Adverse effect of other vaccines and biological substances, initial encounter.
A Pulmonologist M.D. is who makes the call only on this no one else not even Fauci, or any on TV cable news or Twitter and Facebook. Work or seen any of these types of patients. It was this way 2 years ago and still the same today. I will Tell you as you well know the P.C.R. test is not the real way as you know it is a process of many things. (ABG) is a start again as you well know these procedures being one of the best Respiratory guys in the world. Knowing their vaccination statis is with your (PCP) insurance and the State. Again, you can find out most things through blood samples. P.C.R. test will tell you say of Coronavirus but not viral pneumonia them another test done by the above M.D. only they can order this type of work for insurance to pay for this type of work. Again, as you already know all these answers for more than 30 years now.
Don't get too smitten with proton. It's easy to find the needle in the haystack when it's a smaller haystack that attracts dissenter types, adulterers, and criminals. If they were as secure as you want to believe, they would have already gone the way of lavabit.
Hello, Stasi! 🙋♂️
https://icd-codes.com/icd10cm/S00-T88/T36-T50/T50/T50.Z/T50.Z9/T50.Z95
I see what you’re doing ;) I suppose the all payout claims databases APCDs for the states that have them would be a fabulous FOIA request. Aggregates tons of data. Could extrapolate from there. Also there are a number of state and regional HIEs that also aggregate hospital clinical feeds; think ADT traffic… admits, discharges, addendums during stay.
From the ambulatory side much trickier and frankly where most incidents might be recorded (assuming they’re even recording the codes because PITA and they’ll get reimbursed anyways). That’s going to be claims I’m afraid as most aggregation in ambulatory is vendor provided and inaccessible outside of probably court order.
Fun fun.
Alex, you are my light in this complex area.
Alex,
I am not a biller or coder, but work with them on a daily basis as a sort of consultant.
Medicare has this resource, you can search all of their billing and coding guidelines here or view other resources that billiers use to know exactly how to bill medicare for services.
https://med.noridianmedicare.com/web/jfb/education
Another on Covid specific reimbursement...
https://www.cms.gov/Medicare/Medicare-Fee-for-Service-Payment/PFSlookup
Here is the 2022 Physician Fee Schedule...
https://public-inspection.federalregister.gov/2021-23972.pdf
Bottom line is...hospitals and physicians are incentivized to bill for as much as they can. Hospitals will bill medicare, etc. for their services and physicians offices will also bill for their time/services that they spend in the hospital if they are not a hospital only physician. Example: A local pulmonologist has a private practice in the community, but treats Covid patients in the hospital ICU. His office would use an office billing form (CMS 1500 form) for his/her time spent in the hospital. The average Hospital stay is something like $3000+, the average ICU stay is $6000+...
Hope these resources are helpful.
Love your work.
My degree is in Heath Information Management and Technology. After I graduated I went to work in medical sales and marketing, so I never got into medical coding. I know plenty of my classmates who work for Wellstar, Piedmont, and Northside, which are the largest health systems in Georgia.
Back in April 2020 after watching the local news standing outside Kennestone Hospital reporting COVID patients are taking up so many beds, I called some friends who do medical coding for Kennestone. That's when I first realized there is an agenda behind this man made pandemic. Kennestone, they told me, had never been so empty. That none of the COVID deaths they were coding had been lab confirmed, and that at least one trauma patient was coded as a COVID death.
Electronic medical records were mandated by Obama care with the promise it would literally save hundreds of billions of dollars and improve the care of patients. It was all BULLSHIT. There was no interoperability, no continuum of care between providers, certainly NO savings. Alot of physicians have come out and said these systems have hindered care.
I say all that based on my professional experience, there is absolutely no way COVID vaccination records are easily accessible or easily communicated to EMRs.
Not a coder, no formal training, but I do know what you are saying, yes, it is VERY important. Very similar to setting up a research study. One of the first things I learned at the doctorate level was HOW to set up a "study" to produce different "results". Choosing the variables, the size of the sample, the standard deviation, etc. etc. can produce nearly any results you desire to "prove". And, few, if any, will have ANY idea how to "dig up" the original format of the study, and if they did go to that trouble, few would recognize these various elements or question them; such as: were the variables studied those most likely to produce particular results, is the size of the sample appropriate, HOW were the samples chosen, what was the LENGTH of the study, on and on an on.... the coding and many other variables are of such extreme importance in reporting anything connected to covid, and I fear most of the statistical work is so imbued with bias for one purpose or another that I wonder.... will it all get so muddled and contaminated that we will never be able to determine the real truth of this all.... which is very sad for all mankind !
