The transcript centers on a new vaxxed versus unvaxxed study promoted by Del Bigtree in his film An Inconvenience Study, which follows an exchange with Dr. Marcus Zervos, head of infectious disease at Henry Ford Health in Detroit. Zervos agreed in 2016 to undertake a public health comparison of health outcomes in vaccinated and unvaccinated children and published results regardless of the outcome. The film also cites prior evidence challenging vaccine safety, including Dr. Peter Abi (Abi) who, after promoting the DTP vaccine in Guinea Bissau, found that the vaccine protected against diphtheria, tetanus, and pertussis but was associated with more than a twofold increase in overall mortality; he notes that no routine vaccine was tested for overall mortality in randomized trials before introduction, and asserts that vaccines’ effects on overall mortality are not well understood.
The discussion quotes a summary from Guinea Bissau stating that only half the children were vaccinated, enabling a perfect comparative study. The vaccination program, introduced in the late seventies after smallpox eradication successes, reportedly showed that the DTP vaccine was associated with two point three times higher mortality, with the twofold higher mortality linked to whooping cough protection not translating to overall mortality benefits. The film also highlights Dr. Paul Thomas, whose practice data on 3,324 children suggested unvaccinated kids had better health outcomes and fewer doctor visits; it lists numerous conditions with higher incidence in vaccinated children (fever, ear pain and infections, conjunctivitis, eye disorders, asthma, hay fever, sinus issues, breathing problems, anemia, eczema, hives, dermatitis, behavioral issues, gastroenteritis, weight/eating disorders, and ADHD with zero cases in the unvaccinated group). The Oregon Medical Board suspended Thomas’s license soon after publication, and the study was later retracted. The segment presents Thomas’s claims as the basis for ongoing concerns about vaccine safety, and the film frames these suspensions as part of a broader pattern of data being dismissed when results are unfavorable to vaccines.
The film recounts how Bigtree recruited Dr. Zervos to conduct a large-scale study comparing vaccinated and unvaccinated children, using Henry Ford Health’s large database. Zervos completed the study in 2020 but chose not to publish, later telling Bigtree in an undercover recording that publishing results showing harm could effectively end his career. The revealed data included nearly two thousand unvaccinated children; among them, zero cases of ADHD, diabetes, behavioral problems, learning disabilities, intellectual disabilities, tics, or other psychological disorders. The study’s conclusion allegedly states that exposure to vaccination was independently associated with an overall 2.5-fold increase in the likelihood of developing a chronic health condition when compared to children unexposed to vaccination.
The film presents a table with 18,468 subjects, including 1,957 fully unvaccinated individuals. When comparing vaccinated versus unvaccinated groups, the vaccinated were over four times more likely to have an asthma diagnosis (4.29x adjusted), about three times the risk for atopic diseases, nearly six times the risk for autoimmune disease, and a five-and-a-half times risk for neurodevelopmental disorders. It notes almost six times higher risk for autoimmune diseases such as thrombocytopenic purpura, rheumatoid arthritis, MS, and Guillain–Barré syndrome, and reports sixfold increases in autoimmunity and five and a half times neurodevelopmental issues, along with higher rates of acute and chronic ear infections. Some conditions could not be analyzed because none appeared in the unvaccinated group (zero cases), and the analysis could not be performed with zeros in a group.
A highlighted conclusion states that exposure to vaccination is independently associated with an overall 2.5-fold increase in the likelihood of developing a chronic health condition compared to unvaccinated children. A graph reportedly mirrors national data showing 54% of American children with at least one chronic condition; vaccinated children have a 57% chance of developing a chronic disease in the first ten years of life, while unvaccinated children have a 17% chance. Time-to-event analysis reports that, at ten years, the likelihood of being free from a chronic illness is 43% in the vaccinated group versus 83% in the unvaccinated group.
The broadcast directs viewers to watch the film at aninconvenientstudy.com or via Vigilant Fox, and notes a downloadable version. It references a press conference in which Donald Trump and RFK Jr. discussed vaccines, Tylenol during pregnancy linked to autism, and argues for more vaccine scrutiny by the administration.
