Save this one for the Covid Archives: @DrPaulOffit clearly spelled out how the Covid Tyranny unfolded. 🔸The speed at which the vaccine was developed "surprised" him, as did the high levels of "safety and efficacy", maintaining the claim that the vaccine is 95% effective at preventing severe disease 🔸The speed was facilitated by the US govt who poured 11 Billion Dollars into accelerating vaccine development by financing phase 1, 2 and 3 trials as well as manufacturing. 🔸The US govt "removed risk" from pharma companies, which allowed them to make "millions of doses" while still conducting phase 3 trials. 🔸Dr. Offit expressed frustration at the 30% of Americans who refused vaccination no matter what. 🔸Dr Offit: In 2020 "all we had was testing, masking, isolating, quarantining, closing businesses, shuttering schools, restricting travel, trying to limit human to human interaction. We shut down this economy. And now, we had something that could save lives and people still chose not to get it. It was remarkable to me, that level of denialism and resistance. I would have never predicted that" Dr. Offit heavily advocated for childhood vaccine mandates, which he now admits galvanized the "anti-vaxxers" and he used his favorite phrase "leaned into a libertarian left hook 🥊" Dr. Offit is clinging to a narrative that's skating on very thin ice, and there are countless vaccine injured victims that he can speak to and figure it out for himself.

During the pandemic, the development of vaccines surprised many due to its speed. The government's Operation Warp Speed invested $11 billion to accelerate the process, taking the risk out of it for pharmaceutical companies. Within 11 months, large phase three trials were conducted for Pfizer and Moderna's mRNA vaccines. Comparatively, the development of the polio vaccine took several years. Despite the rapid development and effectiveness of the COVID-19 vaccines, there was a significant portion of the population, around 30%, who chose not to get vaccinated. This resistance was unexpected and only strengthened the anti-vaccine movement. The speaker expresses frustration at the missed opportunities to prevent hospitalizations and deaths, particularly among unvaccinated children.

Speaker 0: Interesting. So what most surprised you about what went down during the pandemic? One thing I would think of is the speed. I remember everyone at the beginning saying it takes so many years to develop vaccine, we won't have 1 first, and then It was an amazingly short period. Did that surprise you?
Speaker 1: Yes. That's an easy answer. I mean, you know, I was fortunate enough to be part of a team at Children's Hospital They created a rotavirus vaccine that took roughly 26 years. My sense of how long things took. Generation, that's a generation.
Here, you know, it was a novel virus that had unusual characteristics, SARS CoV-two. It was a novel technology that was going to used to try and combat this, which is to say the messenger RNA vaccines of the Pfizer, Moderna or the vector virus vaccines of Johnson and Johnson, AstraZeneca. But you know, what the government did was they took the risk out of the pharmaceutical companies. Through Operation Warp Speed, they basically Put $11,000,000,000 into a program to accelerate the development. They took the risk out of it.
So they paid for the phase one trials and phase two trials and phase three trials, And they they paid to manufacture that vaccine at risk, meaning they were making millions of doses while you were still doing phase three trials and didn't know whether it was work it worked or didn't know whether it was I mean, the the from the time of that virus being isolated and its genome sequence was in January of 2020 To having 2 large phase three trials of Pfizer and Moderna's mRNA vaccine as big as any adult or pediatric vaccine trial was 11 months, And that's because, you know, of operation warp speed. I mean, I was in the Trump administration. They basically bet on 6 horses to win 1 race, And, you know, that never happens. So, the only time it ever happened really was, the polio vaccine. The March of Dimes did that In 1954, 1955, they also paid pharmaceutical companies to do those trials.
Speaker 0: They mass How long was the development of the polio vaccine?
Speaker 1: Well, if you start from the beginning, I mean, the 1st polio vaccines were really, you know, 20 years earlier. It was in the 15 forties, but both of them failed miserably, and so then you had, these later vaccines. But so if you count all that, but Certainly from the time that Jonas Salk first doing his work to having about whose years means or 5, 6, 7 years.
Speaker 0: So it it it's somewhat ironic that, yes, the Trump He implemented Project Warp Speed, and so we had this amazing development schedule, and yet it's his followers who mostly don't want to be vaccinated.
Speaker 1: And that's under the category of things that surprised me. It surprised me how well these vaccines were. It did. I mean, when doctor Fauci so I remember talking to doctor Fauci, and he said That he was he was hoping that this would be 50% effective, and if so, he would authorize it. And then he as we got closer, he was optimistic it could be as much as 70% effective.
Remember, Barney Graham and and, Kizzmekia Korobit and others at NIH were under him, under NIAID, National Institute of Allergy and Infect Diseases, which is is his his, organization. They they did so he was he was pretty close to that work. And then as we got closer, we thought, you know, this could be as high as 70% of it. Well, it was 95% effective against severe disease. Against mild disease, it was that good early because the, that was only a 3 month study, but so that had to fade.
But protection against severe disease has continued to hold up. So the rapidity with which it was made, The fact that it's still remarkably safe and remarkably effective amazed me. The second thing that amazed me was, so now you could we had to figure out how to mass produce it, mass distribute it, Mass administered this vaccine, which we did pretty quickly. So in January, you're up to like a 1000000 dose a day, then 2,000,000, 3,000,000. By April, you're going to get 3,000,000 doses a day being given to the American public, which for which there wasn't an infrastructure to mass vaccinate adults.
So all amazing, right? And then we hit an absolute wall. Once we got to 70% immunization rates, there was a solid 30% of people in this country We simply didn't wanna get vaccinated even though we lived through 2020 when we had nothing. We we didn't have vaccines. We didn't have anti Virals, we didn't have monoclonals.
All we had was testing, masking, isolating, quarantining, closing businesses, shuttering schools, Restricting travel, trying to just limit human to human interaction. We shut down this economy, and now you had something that could save our lives and people still chose not to get it. It was remarkable to me that level of denialism and resistance. I would have never predicted that. And all it did in the end was just galvanized these anti vaccine forces.
I would have guessed before this vaccine came out that this would have really hurt the anti vaccine movement in this country. The opposite was true. It emboldened them. It's we just leaned into a libertarian left hook by sort of requiring vaccines and requiring masking and mandating it and that Just energize that group.
Speaker 0: What would it take, like a zombie plague, like a real zombie plague, like in a World War Z or Eye of Legend? I don't understand it.
Speaker 1: Doesn't this win? I mean, almost 1,200,000 people have died in this country, and certainly initially, all of We're chosen to be vaccinated or were unvaccinated. And, once the vaccine was available, they still need we saw it in the hospital. The vaccines were available for, For adults, for children over 16, starting in December, then it went down to 12 by May, the following May, and still, you know, we'd see kids come into the hospital who Weren't vaccinated, their parents weren't vaccinated, their siblings weren't vaccinated. I mean, medicine is hard enough, but here you had children who were Coming in on face masks, progressing to ventilation, and up into the intensive care unit, parents are crying, you're thinking this could have been prevented.
It's just, it's really hard.

Dr. Paul Offit, who previously advocated for widespread vaccine mandates, now says that mandates may not have been necessary. In 2021, he supported adding the COVID-19 vaccine to the list of school-mandated vaccines and encouraged children to get vaccinated. However, in a recent interview, he acknowledged the small risk of myocarditis for boys aged 16-17. He also criticized the Biden administration for not recognizing natural immunity for vaccine passport purposes. Dr. Offit believes that colleges should no longer have vaccine mandates.

The Department of Health states that children need multiple doses of various vaccines for attendance in all grades. These include tetanus, diphtheria, pertussis, polio, measles, mumps, rubella, hepatitis B, and chickenpox. The speaker believes that COVID-19 should be added to this list due to its seriousness, especially during the ongoing pandemic. They emphasize that vaccine mandates are effective in combating diseases.
Full Transcript
Speaker 0: Is Department of Health. The standard for vaccination that currently applies and the type is tiny, but let me just tell you and everybody else that for attendance in all grades, children's need 4 doses of tetanus, diphtheria, and pertussis, four more doses of polio, 2 of measles, mumps, rubella, 3 of hepatitis b, 2 of chickenpox. Should COVID nineteen be added to that list? Yes. I mean, do you think that the COVID nineteen is as serious, if not more serious it is in those diseases.
Of course, it is. We're in the midst of a pandemic. And the thing about vaccine mandates is they work.

Pediatricians aim to address vaccine fears by emphasizing the idea that vaccines make children superheroes, like Superman, who can easily fend off viruses and bacteria. They believe it is crucial to explain this concept to both parents and children, reassuring them that vaccines provide protection.

Speaker 0: How would pediatricians traditionally counteract these fears and and what can others who are providing vaccines and vaccine information learn from them?
Speaker 1: So I think we need to try and explain to the parent and to the child. You know, that this makes them superheroes. This makes them Superman. Now the virus are bacteria, you just bounce off them. I think we need to do the best we can to do that.

4. In June 2023, see how Dr. Offit's tone has changed: In an interview with JOWMA, Dr. Offit was asked “What Human Price Did The COVID Vaccine Demand?” He responded it's very small, while conceding that the risk of myocarditis for boys 16/17 y.o is 1/6600
Video Transcript AI Summary
The COVID vaccines had different impacts on human health. The mRNA vaccines had a small price, with a rare side effect of myocarditis, mainly in boys and young men. The overall risk was about 1 in 50,000, and for young children, it was close to 1 in 500,000. However, the cases were generally mild and resolved on their own. On the other hand, the viral vector vaccine had a higher price, with a risk of blood clotting issues, including fatalities. The mRNA vaccines did not have any reported deaths. Overall, the price paid for the mRNA vaccines was considered small, while the viral vector vaccine had a higher risk.
Full Transcript
Speaker 0: Right. So back to that human price, I wanna know what you think. What human price did the COVID vaccines demand? That's a hard question. I'm sorry, but I'm asking it anyway.
Speaker 1: Sure. For the mRNA vaccines, the price was small. I mean, I You're always waiting the question isn't whether or not there's going to be a serious side effect. The only question is how serious and how rare, but that's the only question. Everything That once you get into a population that depends of millions or hundreds of millions people, you're gonna find that there's a serious side effect.
And the answer was not terribly serious And relatively rare. So so the the big one for the mRNA vaccines was myocarditis, you know, inflammation of the heart muscle, which wasn't anticipated because they never are. Mean, those serious side effects virtually never are anticipated. So and and it was rare sort of generally from the population in all in total, it was about 1 in 50,000 For the the highest risk groups, which were boys and young men around sort of 16, 17 years of age, it could be as high as 1 in 66100. For young children, children 5 to 11 years of age are close to 1 in 500,000, so it's extremely rare, and it was mild, a generally mild Self resolving phenomenon.
So I think the price paid for for the mRNA vaccines was really, really small. The j and j's vaccine, you know, the viral vector vaccine, the price was bigger. It was probably about 1 in 200,000 Could get a blood clotting problem that could be serious, meaning a blood clot of the brain, and there were a handful of fatalities, deaths associated with that vaccine. That wasn't true for the mRNA vaccines. I don't know of any deaths from the mRNA vaccine because the myocarditis was so
Speaker 2: It is an incredible force Inside the human body that can kill a healthy 22 year old man right in front of the doctors, the heart as shown here is loaded with inflammation. The heart is basically being destroyed with myocarditis. Destroyed. People have said, doctor McCullough, what can bring down an athlete? These athletes that are just the picture of health.
They've been screened for any cardiac condition. This spike protein is a killer and it rips through the hearts of men and women. 2 boys, Connecticut. Day 3 and 4 after the 2nd dose of Pfizer, the parents find the boys at home, dead at home. The parents are horrified.
They called for autopsies. Thankfully, they did. It goes to the Connecticut corner. They call in University of Michigan, University of Minnesota. They examined the heart.
Conclusion. The vaccines killed the boys. Fatal myocarditis. Fatal. Do you know to this day the consent form is not updated to say the vaccines cause fatal myocarditis?
You know, to this day, our CDC and FDA say it's mild.
Speaker 1: So it's extremely rare, and It was mild, a generally mild self resolving phenomenon. So I think the price paid for for the mRNA vaccines Was really, really small.

5. Dr. Offit admitted that in early 2021, the Biden administration recognized internally that natural infection provided strong immunity and considered recognizing it for Vaxx Passport purposes, yet decided not to for beuracratic reasons! Playing with our lives like its a game
Video Transcript AI Summary
The speaker mentions being part of a meeting in February 2021 where the administration considered allowing individuals who had been naturally infected with COVID-19 to be exempt from vaccination mandates. They believed that natural infection could provide protection against severe disease. However, the administration decided against this idea due to bureaucratic concerns and the need for individuals to prove their natural infection status. The speaker suggests that people could potentially obtain fake PCR positivity cards to bypass this requirement.
Full Transcript
Speaker 0: With also not taking natural infection into account. Yeah. I was actually part of a meeting that, but I remember that meeting. It was in February 2021. So I guess it was right around the time no.
No. It's later than that, I think. But in any case, the the so I can tell you that the administration was considering it. They were considering saying, in this setting because we're starting to mandate vaccines. If someone comes in a workplace or hospital or whatever and says, you know, I don't wanna get vaccinated, but I've been naturally infected, and I think natural infection will prevent me from getting serious disease.
Therefore, I don't want to get a vaccine. There's every reason to believe that natural infection would prevent against serious disease. And the data came out fairly soon showing that that was true. But so the administration, I think, for more reasons having to do with bureaucratic Right. Concerns because this added another layer.
You had to now prove that you were naturally infected. You could probably buy, you know, a PCR positivity card off the Internet, So you really would have to show that your antibody that you had antibodies to, you know, to, like, to to to the viral viral proteins, and, that was just another layer that they just didn't wanna

6. Dr. Offit was asked about the risk/benefit calculation for boys in the 16/17 age group. "It's a fair point, but again, you learn this in retrospect."

Video Transcript AI Summary
A discussion takes place about the risk assessment for a teenage male who has had COVID and is considering getting vaccinated. The speakers agree that it is not a fair risk assessment to ignore the previous COVID infection and just keep vaccinating. They mention that if a person is healthy and under 75 years old, having received three doses of an mRNA vaccine or two doses of the vaccine plus a natural infection may provide sufficient protection against severe disease for years. They also mention that some colleges and universities still have mandates for booster doses before allowing students back on campus.
Full Transcript
Speaker 0: Say you have a young kid, say, a teenage male. Right? And there is that increased risk in that age group of the myocarditis side effect. Correct? So say that kid has had had COVID already.
Speaker 1: 2nd dose. Yeah. With important dose too.
Speaker 0: Right. So say the kid has had COVID already or say he's had COVID in one dose, And we're told ignore the ignore the COVID and just keep vaccinating. Is that a fair risk assessment for this particular kid?
Speaker 1: No. It's a it's a it's a fair point, but, again, you learn this in retrospect. As the dust settles on this pandemic, I think you can say that if you're healthy and less than 75, If you've had 3 doses of an mRNA containing vaccine or 2 doses of the vaccine and a natural effect, you probably have. You probably may not need boosters For years, frankly, because you still are going to be protected against severe disease. You're not protected against mild disease for very long, but you're protected against severe disease.
But again, I think that, you know, you learn these things over time. But but, no, I agree with you. I mean, even today, there are some college campuses or universities that, Insist on people getting a you know, these basically young, healthy people, 18 to 22 22 years of age, they have to get another dose of vaccine before they Come on campus. That doesn't make any sense.
Speaker 0: Right. Do we still have mandates out there?
Speaker 1: I think there are still some I I asked one of the reporters called me And that surprised me too. She said, yes. There are still some colleges and university that mandate a booster dose before you can get back on campus. I knew it was due for the spring semester. I just didn't know it was coming through for the upcoming

The speakers discuss the issue of trusting medical information from experts versus doing personal research. They highlight the criticism faced by individuals who seek to be informed about medical treatments, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic. The speakers argue that shaming people for doing their own research is counterproductive and that relying on expert advisory groups is important. They also mention the lack of expertise among the general population and even some doctors. The conversation touches on the influence of big pharma and the corruption within regulatory agencies. The speakers suggest that many YouTube shows do not provide critiques of these issues.
Full Transcript
Speaker 0: There's a general trust your doctor and your nurse to give you good information. I don't see why you should trust somebody who's has no experience or expertise in the area, why that is the person who should be tested, but that that just doesn't work in the 21st century. Right? Trust us. We're experts.
It's not exact. But how are you supposed to know? I mean, I'll have when the varicella, chickenpox vaccine, came out in 1995, you know, I would have people email me or call me. Go, you know, I've I've done my research, and I'm not getting this vaccine.
Speaker 1: Isn't that weird? It was the weirdest thing I've ever seen. Even comedians would get on stage, and they would shame people for trying to get informed about a medical treatment that was experimental that they had to take or they would lose their jobs and they wouldn't be able to travel. And when people tried to get informed about that, other people shamed them. They would say, please tell me you're not gonna do your own research.
You've heard people say that. Please don't do your own research. You know, before COVID, doing your own research used to be called reading. Now you're shaming me for reading at the behest of big pharma? It's like I woke up in the middle of a Bill Hicks bit.
Well, looks like we got ourselves a reader. Tell me, boy, what you reading for? Don't you know everything that needs to be read is already been read it by a smart person? That's how much people internalize the propaganda for big pharma Was that they would shape they would be anti intellectual enough to shame people for reading while they're wagging their finger at them for doing it. You would never Shame people for trying to get informed no matter what other subject it was, no matter how unimportant.
Like, if I say, hey. I'm gonna go I'm gonna go buy a car. Don't look into it. Well, how will I know which car to get? Ask the salesman.
He's the expert. What are you, Henry Ford?
Speaker 0: Done your research and get the vaccine every time. But what they mean by I've done my research is that they looked on the Internet and got people's opinions about the chickenpox vaccine. You really wanna do your research at that time, read the 300 articles that have been published on the subject, which would mean that you would have to have had an expertise at some level in virology, immunology, epidemiology, statistics. Most people don't have that expertise. Most doctors don't have that expertise.
So who do they rely on? They rely on at least advisory groups that collectively have that expertise, like those at the FDA or CDC. You're a vaccinated anti vaxxer, the worst kind
Speaker 1: Not the oh.
Speaker 0: Like a black white supremacist.
Speaker 1: So again, I don't know who what other YouTube shows you're watching, but I'm guaranteeing the one you're watching aren't giving you a critique Of fucking big pharma, of Fauci, of the NIH, of the FDA, of the 100% corrupt country we're living in And the corporate capture of our regulatory agencies, and they're not giving you any critique on anything of the vaccine rollout, Of anything Fauci's saying, Joe Biden, the white they're not doing any of that.
