For those of you who would like a modestly more technical explanation of the IgG4 paper
alexberenson.substack.com
Eugyppius is your man. This, from last week, goes into just the right amount of detail and is properly worrying, without being alarmist.
I do want to disagree with Eugyppius on one point, though. He and some other people who I think are a couple of steps behind on sounding the mRNA alarm keep pointing to Sweden’s lack of excess mortality as reason not to be worried. Sweden is a small country (only 1/2 the population of the Netherlands, 1/8 Germany) and major outlier in the mRNA countries at this point on excess deaths; it has been an outlier since the beginning of the pandemic because it refused to lockdown. The fact Sweden isn’t seeing a lot of excess deaths right now is great for Sweden, but it tells us next to nothing about whether the jabs are contributing to excess deaths on a population basis.
“The fact Sweden isn’t seeing a lot of excess deaths right now is great for Sweden, ”. Perhaps the lack of lockdown initially allowed more infections (Covid and non-Covid) and therefore more inmate immunity to build. This would be prior to vaccine rollout. There might be a favorable interaction with prior infection. Data still has not settled it completely if I’ve read correctly.
I am convinced Pfizer and Moderna already knew this. This is exactly why they pushed so hard and lined so many pockets to push these vaccines. They had spent so much $ developing the mRNA delivery method and knew it was going to come to naught. This was a money grab.
Why does it tell us nothing Alex? Is it not a crucial data point for trying to figure out whether it's lockdown legacy or mRNA vaccines causing excess death?
The paper addresses dangers in addition to reduced antibody effectiveness. IgG4 antibodies train the body to tolerate the target antigen, such as in response to allergens. If this is happening with the COVID shots, vaccinees could have COVID infections and not even realize it, since the symptoms from a viral infection are typically caused by the body's response and attempt to clear the virus.
Thus, there is a risk that the SARS-CoV-2 virus persists in the bodies of people who received the mRNA shots, leading to organ damage and other bad outcomes. This suggestion is consilient with increased viral load observed in vaccinees, documented increases in excess deaths correlated with mRNA shot uptake, and anecdotal reports (with some data to back them up) of increased frequency and severity of various non-COVID diseases.
Sweden had a low rate of cardiac problems *before* the pandemic, so there is some trait that is endemic to the population that protects them (e.g. genes? diet? etc.).
I noticed a “fact-chuck” of your posts on the IgG4 issue and excess excess deaths in mRNA countries that said the excess deaths thing is a lie because look at Sweden, and any concerns about IgG4 thing is just antivax panic porn because look, the (jab-happy) people who wrote the study weren’t concerned about it.
Has anyone looked at IGg4 (or all subtypes) in folks who have had one or more bouts of Covid but were never vaccinated? Absent that information, how do we know it’s the “vaccine” (mRNA shots are not vaccines, hence my quotes) and not something in the nature of the spike protein? Naïve question: maybe someone knows (?). Also Alex I just don’t understand why the size of Sweden is relevant. Still plenty of folks for statistically reliable sampling, no?
The big “E” is right that you are late to the MRNA party. Lol. That is an understatement our good truth censorship fighter. And. May I invite you to follow the DeSantis Grand Jury of Covid Crimes? And hmmm. Maybe the Kari Lake election fraud appeal as microcosms of further “fashionably late” truth fighting parties you might begin to, hmm. How shall we say, pop in for at least a brief appearance.
The one thing I have learned with absolute conviction over the last three years of this surreal, dystopian era, from personal experience, is don’t trust anything or anyone that comes from government, professional health destroyers, money making health bureaucrats, media, power mongers, corrupted scientists, and all Leftists. All are evil or incredibly incompetent. Trust your own instincts and natural ability at survival. Sweden and the rest of them including Florida all were complicit in the beginning and throughout with weak resistance. The non western folk I know, India, Africa had it right. They will survive. We will not because we continue to give grace to the evil doers. Evil needs to be destroyed!
Okay, honest question though. What’s the difference between this igG4 and Mareks? Because so far the explanations of the IgG4 sound to me like what everyone’s (Alex) has been saying since the beginning about Mareks.
I wrote a piece going over the current travel restrictions based on vaccination status, and the insanity of it all. I find it particularly insane that the order is based on a presidential "proclamation".
Most proclamations are "the president proclaims today shall be national root beer day" type stuff.
@alexberenson here is a thought: remember, Sweden did not lock down. They are the ONLY MRNA nation that did not lock down, thus the majority of the population got COVID early on (look at the fact that they did not get high mortality when other nations did in additional waves and they lost most of their people very early on. Maybe getting the MRNA shot AFTER getting COVID is the protecting factor as their bodies have real protection from COVID. Maybe having natural antibodies also protected the body from the damages of the vaccine (can the body "fight" the spike protein injected via the vaccine once it knows how to do so to fight the actual virus? Interesting question). It is impossible to tell, but since they are the only MRNA nation to be an outlier and the one way they were markedly different (even from the closest countries in the area) is staying almost 100% open leads one to believe it had something to do with it.
today this is a COMPLETE BS!!! The SARS-CoV-2 virus has a NATURAL mRNA apparently, the covid injections have a SYNTHETIC modified s.c. "mod mRNA" or in short mmRNA, both completely different!!! Here a march post from LAST year about it:
I have a question for Alex. Do you know anything about a new Covid Vaccine called Novovax? It is supposedly made the old fashioned way? That is all I heard, I would like to know your thoughts or any info you have. Thanks
Regardless our Government here in America oversold a Product that is never been in a clinical trial RCT evidence. This mRNA was all based on fiction Fauci. The legacy media is ignoring these facts. Legacy media so call Doctor experts never did any research Homework of basic medical knowledge. You don't mask millions of people who are in Respiratory failure or going to be in Respiratory failure. This was not done by normal person this was all sinister acts Purposely planned and this Person is going to be still working behind the scenes!?
Long before EUA, FDA and vaccine makers were warned about induction of inappropriate IgE and IgG4 antibodies by COVID vaccines. They ignored it. Prediction comes true, with devastating consequences.
First of all, thank you for letting me comment, and I’ll keep it brief:
It’s a new year but an old issue, we’re dealing with bookend generation populations that are clueless and disruptive; the boomers and the Gen Zs. So, people over 65 and people under 30 are a detriment to society until proven otherwise, even if they’re only 50.1% of their group.
Covid has exposed who is inherently selfish, shameless and soulless , and, all this pontification into 2023 isn’t going to change that.
Be safe and well to all, hope your holiday season was as fun and festive as possible. I know I always say be safe and well, but, with things the way they are, and are likely going to be, you better always keep your ears and eyes to the sides, to pay attention to what’s behind you.

Pure speculation.

So freedom doesn't kill you?....
Now wait a minute and hear me out…
What if it’s the Swedish fish?
We could have a treatment staring us in the face and not even realize it.
Not so sure about lack of excess deaths in Sweden.... have a look:
"Here is Sweden done correctly. 9,300 excess deaths 7.1% excess average since inflection week, 2021."

Jessica Rose had a lot more technical detail in her pieces on IG4, and w/o a paywall.
Here's one of them.

But birth rates are down in Sweden . It's the lowest since 2005 for the first 9 month´s.

word is that Sweden required aspiration when giving the jab. could that be one reason for the low excess mortality?

Alex, could you have a look at the US policy on vacation requirements, upon entry?
The US has just extended it to April.
But you will be fine if you had the initial two does 2 years ago!
Do they not look at the science?

As someone who took the jabs before "waking up," anyone have any idea when we can feel safe about these issues? My last jab was over a year ago.
We who believe were called creetins, now those same comments are being pulled.
