This episode is brought to you by The Functional Nurse Academy
In todays episode, I sit down with Dr. Sherri Tenpenny DO, AOBNMM, ABIHM to discuss her journey from practicing emergency medicine within the conventional healthcare system to becoming one of the world's most recognized advocates for vaccine safety and medical freedom. We explore concerns surrounding the childhood vaccination schedule, proposed mechanisms of vaccine-related neurological injury, and the management of childhood illnesses such as measles, including the role of supportive care and vitamin A. We also examine the ongoing discussion surrounding COVID-19 vaccine injuries, including myocarditis, while Dr. Tenpenny shares why she believes chronic kidney disease deserves greater attention. Finally, she discusses new educational resources and a parent-focused app she is developing, and I review clips from U.S. Senate hearings addressing concerns about the potential health effects of the COVID-19 vaccines.

Hello and welcome to the Functional Nurse Academy podcast. This is your host, Melissa Schreibvetter, owner and founder of the Functional Nurse Academy. I am so honored to be joined today by Dr. Sherry Tinpenny on a discussion of vaccine safety and vaccine injury that is occurring in our country and how that can potentially relate to the chronic disease epidemic that we are experiencing in the U.S. Dr. Sherry Tinpenny is a globally recognized leader in exposing vaccine dangers and medical corruption. With over 50,000 hours of research spanning more than 25 years, she was one of the first medical professionals to sound the alarm on vaccine risks, paving the way for many of today's voices in the medical freedom movement. Her relentless dedication to uncovering the truth behind public health policies, pharmaceutical influence, and vaccine-related injuries has made her one of the most sought-after educators and speaker in the field. Dr. Tinpenny began her career as an emergency room physician and served as director of a level two trauma center for 12 years, where she gained first-hand experience in critical care and the failures of conventional medicine. Realizing the limitations of the mainstream medical system, she then founded Tinpenny Integrative Medical Center near Cleveland, Ohio, where she helped thousands of patients from all 50 states and more than 20 countries achieve true wellness through natural and holistic approaches. She was also one of the first doctors in the world to mourn about the dangers of the COVID-19 shots. In April of 2021, she released the groundbreaking ebook and webinar, The 20 Mechanisms of Injury, detailing how the shots could cause widespread harm. By July of 2021, she expanded her research with 20 more mechanisms of injury, further exposing the devastating effects of these experimental injections. Her work provided early critical insights into the long-term consequences of the COVID-19 vaccine, helping countless people make informed choices. Welcome, Dr. Sherry Tinpenny. It is such an honor to have you on the show. Thank you so much for joining us today. You're welcome. Nice to be here. Thank you, Melissa. So it's so great to meet with you face to face because I know that you have been in this fight for a very long time. I mean, you were one of the OG physicians that were just boldly speaking out about the issues with vaccines. And can you tell me how how long has it been now since you have been aware of all of these safety issues and vocal about them? I'm almost 26 years. Oh my goodness. Wow. And and what was like that? Because I I feel like since what I like to call the COVID shenanigans, I feel like since that has happened, so many more healthcare professionals are asking questions. And it's not uncommon now for the public to be asking questions. But what was it like back then when you were vocal before people had widespread concerns?
SPEAKER_03Well, you know, it's it's a you know a little bit at a time. You know, there wasn't much available back then. You had to subscribe to conventional medical journals, you had to subscribe to services that did some of the research for you because you know, this would have been, you know, 2000. So the internet was not what it is now. And there were not many books out now, there's dozens and dozens of books about problems associated with vaccines, and there's lots of websites and, you know, all these different things. So there was um, you know, it's it was it was a lot harder. But, you know, I uh for two years there was a homeopathic company called Apex Energetics that they hired me. And for two years, every other weekend I was on the road speaking at a conference somewhere in the country, primarily to chiropractors and naturopaths and nurse practitioners, physicians assistants that were doing more integrative medicine at that point in time. That would have been 2002 to um probably the end of 2003. And so, you know, there were small groups, usually anywhere from 20 to 40 people at a time. They were growing as time went on. But it was just, it was just sowing seeds at that point in time. It was um my job, I felt like to get out the information to as many people as possible. And sometimes there were larger groups and sometimes there were parents' groups. And it was just a matter of, you know, from the beginning, I thought if people only knew, really knew what was coming through that needle, if they had any idea that what they were injecting their children with, surely they would stop. Well, here we are 26 years later. More people are aware than ever before, and more people are questioning, but they're still vaccinating their kids.
SPEAKER_02Well, yes, and there's so many barriers as well. And I am in Tennessee. You cannot get more in the Bible belt than in Tennessee, and parents still are not completely aware that they can use a religious exemption. And um, so I was even um with my first baby back when I was an ignorant indoctrinated nurse, I gave I gave him everything for the first 18 months. And I remember I was so deceived that I was looking forward to taking him to the pediatrician to give him those vaccines because I thought that that was the best way I could protect him. And then once I started doing, you know, a deep dive and just learning a little bit about what is in the vaccines and the safety issues. And one thing that I talk about frequently on this show, just did a show on this a couple of weeks ago, are the aluminum adjuvants. And I was learning about the pharmacokinetic study that was done on rodents. And that initial study that they did was um two rodents that received aluminum hydroxide and then two rodents that received aluminum phosphate. And then they were like, oh, aluminum hydroxide is released slowly, more slowly than phosphate. And then they started giving this to day one infants when we know they have immature liver enzymes and immature immune systems. And it's just, it's unbelievable. And I wanted to ask your perspective about that, about what we are injecting into day one infants from like a physician perspective. Um, I know that this makes sense to you, that this is an unsafe practice. But why do you think that so, I mean, I feel like more people are asking questions, but especially about that like day one dosage of uh 250 mics of aluminum like hydroxide. Why do you think that so many physicians aren't even, they're not even raising eyebrows to that?
SPEAKER_03I think it's because so many physicians don't even have any idea. They don't even know. And they're taught that, you know, the aluminum stays in the muscle. It doesn't go anywhere. And we know from all of the work that uh Dr. Chris Christopher Exley did, you know, they call him Mr. Aluminum, that he that he says within within days, hours, sometimes minutes, as soon as you inject that um vaccine that has the aluminum in it, it goes directly to the brain. And the blood-brain barrier does not keep out the aluminum. And so it goes in, and he said, in all of his years of study, like 40 years of research, and he he tested aluminum in fish, in rabbits, and in um rats, and and um in plants and um uh frogs and all sorts of of life. He said, never once did I find aluminum do anything except poison the subject. You know, it just it's just a poisonous material. It should never be in the body, and it certainly shouldn't be injected in the body ever, but particularly not in newborn kids. And so there's five different brands of uh vitamin K on the market. Two of those five brands have a hundred micrograms of aluminum in them. And then if they get a hepatitis B on birth or within a couple of days, that's another hundred micrograms of aluminum. So when when uh kids grow up to be have ticks or quirky or have neurological problems or things like that, and the parents go, oh, they were born with it. No, they weren't. They were poisoned at birth, and actually they were poisoned at pre-birth because of the aluminum that's in the DPT vaccine um that that mothers get when they're pregnant. You know, moms get uh um DPT, they get a flu shot, they get RSV, and if they're um RH negative, they get a ro two rogam shots. And so babies are pummeled before they're even born with poisonous material. And that's why several months ago, maybe maybe longer than that now, I decided that people need a two by four to the head to get this. I've been talking about it for almost 26 years, and I'm not the only one. I mean, Dr. Larry Palevsky, Dr. Christian Northrop, Dr. Lee Merritt, um, the Dr. Carrie Maday, those of us that are with this group called the Five Docs, we've been talking about it for decades. There are now literally dozens and dozens of books out there. There are websites, there are podcasts. Um, we are just releasing an app, it's called the Vax app that's going to have all the ingredients in it. So it'll be in the palm of your hand anytime that you want a reference to it. There is so much material out there that if uh parents still want to poison their children because they are believing these people in a white coat that have no idea what they're injecting in their kids, um, I don't know what else we can do. So I decided that they need a two by four to the head. And I'm gonna start talking about the pediatric poisoning program, not the vaccination program, which sounds sort of light and sort of good for a second, can protect your kids, and we're gonna call it what it is. The uh assault on the human body and the pediatric poisoning program that begins at pre-birth, and we've got to stop this, or we're gonna have no kids left. When we've got autism now at one in 30 children and one in 12 boys in California, how many more gen one more generation we will have 100% of brain injured people on this planet, particularly in America? What is that gonna mean to our our um to our society? And it's and it hits heavier in boys than in girls. And what's gonna happen to our male-dominated injured in industries such as electricians and plumbers and farmers and people in the military and people that uh, you know, um careers that generally are more male-dominated than female dominated. Um, this is this is a disaster for the world. And it's it's time for this 200-year multi-generational indoctrination and mistake. It must end. And people have got to get over their fear of infection. Oh my gosh, if I hear one more time, what about measles? I think I'm gonna have a seizure. You know, measles was not deadly in 1963, the year in 1962, the death rate from measles was two in a million the year before the measles vaccine came out. And now because we've got everybody vaccinated with measles, we have a one in thirty uh autism rate, one out of thirty kids. So would you rather have your child have a fever, a cough, a rash, a runny nose, a conjunct a little bit of conjunctivitis, be in bed for a few days that you have to take care of them, imagine that, and nurse them back to health with vitamin A and good and omega-3s and good nutrition, and um give them cool baths instead of Tylenol, you know, to keep their temperature down, wouldn't, and then they have a lifetime of then they recover and have a lifetime of immunity. Doesn't that sound like a better way for your child to have an infection than to treat them with an MMR, have them be headbanging, um flapping, losing speech, and and be on that autism spectrum for the rest of their life. Parents have got to get a handle on the fact that infection helps your body. The fever, the cough, the purging is a way that you get toxins out of your system. It's not just, oh my gosh, my child's gonna get an infection and he's gonna die. We've got to change that paradigm. Well, there's so much fear-mongering, you know. And that's why. That's why it's because parents buy it. They hear it and get afraid instead of going, no, thank you. I'm not gonna be afraid. I'm not listening to that.
SPEAKER_02Well, and I also think in the healthcare system, and I see this from like a Christian perspective, I think there's a whole lot of false idolatry in the healthcare system where we're really instead of putting our faith in Jesus Christ, you're putting your faith in the white coat that is an authority, which I sometimes nickname the doctor God, because sometimes they don't realize that there is a difference between themselves and God. But anyway, um they don't, they don't know everything. They're not these all-knowing beings. And then also we know that so many physicians that go all the way through school, they get out and they are so incredibly indoctrinated. And many of them don't realize that there may have been some things in their textbooks that were inaccurate, or maybe some of the things that they are doing are based on very faulty research. And I had another um question for you about just the um chronic health disease and the the chronic diseases in our country. And I actually believe that I was vaccine injured because I was, you know, I had a military job, and then I worked in healthcare for several years working in the hospital system, getting every vaccine I was told to take because I was ignorant and didn't know any better. And my immune system went haywire. And I've got like some pretty good genetics because people in my family don't tend to have autoimmune disorders and tend to live a very long time. And um, my body started basically breaking down in my 20s with autoimmune activation and whatnot. And when you turn the TV on, which I also like to call the idiot box, but anyway, when you have the TV on and you see all these commercials, it's like every commercial are there, there's so many commercials for medications that suppress the immune system, medications for autoimmune disorders. And I remember when I was a child, when I was growing up in the 80s and the 90s, I had never even heard of anybody with an autoimmune condition or with autism. And that has exploded. And sometimes I wonder, you know, if at the top of these pharmaceutical manufacturers, if they know that these products are causing such significant injury, and then on the other end of it, they're making so much more revenue because so many people are then pharmaceutical dependent. Do you have um a do you have any feedback on that? Do you think that they know what they're doing or do you think that they're just incompetent?
SPEAKER_03I think it's a little bit of both. I mean, they certainly know what they're doing. I mean, if you if you start hearing about um, like I'll just use Ebola for an example, and you start use you hearing about, oh, there's going to be this big Ebola outbreak and all this stuff, and then you go do a little bit of research and you find out that the Ebola vaccine has already been approved for use and it's already ready to go in the pipeline. So it's problem, reaction, fear, fear, fear, solution, here's your next vaccine. So they already have the system already in place. And when it's a medication, you know, they uh they create a condition, fear, fear, fear, here's your pill. And they already set aside, once they start selling that pill, they will set aside a couple billion dollars, billion dollars in a pot for when they start reporting side effects and people start dying, like they did with Celebrex and what's going to be happening with Ozembik and all the GLP1 injectables and all that stuff. They've already made their money, it's set aside in a pot. So when the class action lawsuits start to come about and they start winning and there needs to be paying outs, they just shrug because they've already set aside the money for these payouts and they've already made their billions. So, and and so that's, you know, are they just criminal? That's the part of your question. The other, are they just incompetent? Because physicians don't know. They don't read the package inserts, they only listen to the cute, the cute little drug reps that come into their office, either male or female, you know, because uh I have friends that I used to have a lot of friends that were drug reps and they talk about how they get hired. I mean, the first way that they get hired is how they look. You know, are they pretty? Are they handsome? Are they kind of sexy because they have to go in and sell these drugs? And so you're not gonna take a plump, not very pretty man or woman to be a drug salesman. It's just it just won't ever work because they're there to sell their products. And then they get indoctrinated in their products, and so and the doctors and they bring in the to the doctor's office a nice little lunch and a mug and a cup and you know, five-color glossy, big marketing pieces and all that stuff. I mean, that's what they know. And, you know, if if you if physicians took the time to get educated post-medical school, they would all leave the profession.
SPEAKER_02It it really is sad. And you you are so right about those pharmaceutical reps. They are just the friendliest, most social.
SPEAKER_03Most attractive. Oh, yeah. You know, the women are beautiful, the men are, you know, really fit and you know, they they dress well and they're articulate and they're handsome, they're nice to look at, um, they're trustworthy because they're they're beautiful and so and they they're taught how to be on stage and present the material. They it's it's uh it's a whole racket. You know, doctors, you know, they with the Star Claws a long time ago, they stopped giving away, you know, like trips to Hawaii and cars and stuff like that. They are not allowed to do that anymore. But they still give them, you know, lunch and they, you know, treat their staff well and they'll bring in little trick, trinkety things like cups and mugs and pens and you know, little sticky note pads that say the name of their company and the drug across the top to remind you every time you stick up that, pick up that sticky notepad, oh, that drug, that drug, that drug. It's uh it's a well-oiled machine. In fact, if it wasn't so ugly and so nefarious, I would say it is probably the best business model ever created. You know, I create a product, I sell a product to you people over there that make me billions of dollars by writing a word on a piece of paper. And if you write the wrong word on the piece of paper or the pizza or the phys or the patient ends up to have a bad side effect, you have the liability, not the pharmaceutical company. So you go to school, you spend $400,000 for the privilege of wearing a white coat with a stethoscope around your neck, and the privilege of writing a word on a piece of paper, either for an order, a test, uh a drug, a vaccine, a physical therapy or whatever it is, you take on $400,000 in debt that takes your whole life to pay off, pretty much, and you you write words on a piece of paper called a prescription that makes the pharmaceutical industry multiple many billions, almost trillions of dollars, and you have all the liability if you prescribe the wrong word on the piece of paper, or it's the correct word, but the person has a bad side effect or whatever, you've got all the liability. That's why malpractice insurance is so high. You know, to be an OBGIN, I think malpractice insurance is now something around $70,000 or $80,000 a year. So you have to pay out of your own pocket $70,000 to $80,000 a year. How many babies do you think you have to deliver just to break even on your malpractice insurance? Let alone all of the CME credits that you have to do, all of the, all of the uh uh pay for your license renewal and DEA renewal and all that stuff. It's the golden handcuffs. You know, once you're in, you can't get out.
SPEAKER_02Oh, and and again, like once you are, because they have so much debt in the way the system is designed. Heaven forbid, if they start speaking out against this, the medical boards, uh, as I'm sure you are very well aware, because you've been through the ringer, the medical boards I know can be very tyrannical towards physicians that are speaking out against these mainstream narratives.
SPEAKER_03It's not even so much. It was that was really true during COVID. It's not even really so much about the medical boards. It's about most physicians are employees now. They're W-2 employees. They're high dollar per hour workers. I mean, they have a dug, they get a W-2 pay stub the same as your front desk receptionist does, except they get paid not $30 an hour, they get paid $500 an hour, but they still are a W-2 employee with a boss. That's the hospital system. And the hospital system is in bed with and beholding to the insurance industry and the pharmaceutical industry. So you have to stay as an employee, you have to stay in line with what your hospital system is telling you to do. Order more tests, do more procedures. Um, you get a bonus based on mammograms, ultrasounds, colonoscopies, things like that, the number that you order, how well, how highly vaccinated your population is, how well your how many cholesterol scripts that you write, you have to keep in line. And if you're not kept in line, you're given a warning. If you're not you don't get back in line, like get back in the herd, you can get fired. It's just like I use this analogy a lot. Let's say that you worked for Dunkin' Donuts. So you had a boss, right? You have a manager and then you have a boss. You work for Dunkin' Donuts, and you are the cashier at Dunkin' Donuts. And so the person comes down the line and they have a box of 24 gooey, sugary donuts. And as they check out, you say to them, you know, those are really not good for you. And if you eat a lot of those, it's going to make cause obesity and lead to diabetes. And those are really not a good thing for you to be eating. How long do you think that person would keep their job? Not very long. If they're, you know, they would be, they should be saying, Oh, those are really great choices. And oh, the strawberry one is even better than the chocolate one. You really made good choices today. Ching, ching, ching, ching, ching, ching, as those people are checking out. Well, it's the same thing with doctors, you know. If they if the patient comes in and says, um, and and the doctor says, you know, I don't know if a flu shot's a good idea. It's loaded, it the the multidose flu shots still have mercury in them. And that DPT shot really doesn't protect you and it's got aluminum in it, and it goes through the whole sorts of thing. How long do you think the hospital will let them get away with that?
SPEAKER_02That is such that's that's actually a brilliant analogy. And another thing I wanted to shift to, because I know that you are so busy and you have about five minutes left. So I would love just to touch on the COVID vaccine. Because again, I feel like that COVID vaccine is the straw that broke the camel's back. I mean, it was just such a ridiculous recommendation. So many safety issues. The claim that the mRNA lipid nanoparticle, it just stays in the deltoid muscle with literally no source to show that they had evidence of that. There were so many things that were absurd, yet it's still available on the market. People can still go give their infants a COVID vaccine. I would love to hear your feedback on, you know, how dangerous do you think those shots are? Do you think they're worse than the other vaccines that we have on the market?
SPEAKER_03Of course they are. They're murder weapons. They've been designated to be a bioweapon. You know, Senator Johnson has been screaming at the top of his lungs for six weeks now that all the data has shown that the FDA knew of at least 25 deadly conditions that the that the COVID shots that are causal. You know, we're all taught, you know, associ, you know, uh association does not prove causality. But this, these are causal and they covered it up. And he's screaming at mainstream media, at MSM, MSNBC, CNN, even Fox, saying this is the biggest scandal ever in the history of our healthcare system of this country. Why is no one from mainstream media picking it up? I mean, he's spent he's just on a mission to get this because there's at least 25. And if you look deeper, that they knew that there was at least 1,200 conditions, diagnoses, and side effects that were caused and or associated with the COVID jabs before they even came on the market. So if anybody thinks that COVID, a cough, a cough, shortness of breath, gets better with erythromycin, can be treated with ivermectin, hydroxychloroquine, um, you know, erythromycin, and maybe maybe a couple of other like a Z pac, um, and goes away in seven to ten days. You don't need REMdesivir, you don't need a ventilator, you don't need any of those things that killed people. If you're still giving this to your children who should have never had it in the first place, because kids don't get COVID, and if they do, it's so mild, it just comes and goes. It's it's less of a cough than pertussis or or RSV. If you're still poisoning your children with that, I think that one of these days down the road, we're going to be able to set up lawsuits against people for um assault on their children. Assault with a deadly weapon that could kill them.
SPEAKER_02Well, and there's so much evidence coming out too, especially about the risk of myocarditis and adolescent.
SPEAKER_03Myocarditis got all the attention because of all the work that Peter McCullough did. And I'm not dissing him. I mean, I was glad that he was able to do the stuff that he talked about and bring all the attention to myocarditis. But the death rate from chronic kidney disease and chronic renal failure is 10 times higher than myocarditis. And the data is out there to prove it. And nobody's talking about that. It's every all the focus is on myocarditis.
SPEAKER_02Well, I'm so glad that you said that because I had no idea about the rate of chronic kidney failure. So do you have a do you have a good resource? I'd I'd like to put some resources in the show notes about that.
SPEAKER_03I do. I'll have to think about I don't know the name right off the top of my head, but I can I can give you a link to the interview that I did, to the podcast that we did about all the data of how that all came out. And right now I'm blanket on the name, but I'll I'll be able to get it to you for your show notes.
SPEAKER_02Oh, that that would be amazing. And I know that you have got to run because again and again, thank you so much for taking the time to sit down and have this discussion with me. I really appreciate your time.
SPEAKER_03You're welcome. And I hope that um the all the nurses that listen to this will open their mind and stop being part of the problem.
SPEAKER_02Yes. Thank you so much for your words, wisdom. I appreciate all of the hard work that you do. Thank you. Take care. Bye-bye. If you all would like to learn more about Dr. Tinpenny and her work, you can find her at drtinpenny.com. Dr. Tinpenny has a podcast that is also hosted on America Out Loud. It is called the Tenpenny Files. She also has, she's just such a wealth of information. So if you go to her website, drtinpenny.com, and um click on the education and news. And she has a variety of webinars. She has courses. And another thing I love that she is doing is she even has a Bible study series. I mean, oh my goodness, this woman has done so much. She has homeschool options. There's just so much. So I really recommend that you just take a look at her educational resources because she really does have a heart for public health. And she really, really wants to help children and families. And again, you know, when you are a loud voice about the vaccine safety concerns and whatnot, there's going to be a lot of pushback. Um, you know, a lot of individuals that are very vocal in this area. They're going to be smeared on legacy media. They're going to be smeared on Wikipedia. There will be people making fake accounts of them. It's just awful. So she is on multiple also social media platforms. But to find her social media, be sure that you go to her website and click on her social media tab. That way you know you are following the correct account. Well, it is about time to cut to break. This show is also syndicated on America Out Loud Talk Radio on the Nurses Report radio show and podcast. So you can also find me there on any major app. Welcome back, everyone. Today we are doing an episode where we're talking about vaccines, vaccine injury, what we can do to help this vulnerable population. Well, I know that that was a lot of just very significant content from Dr. Timpenny. And I know that for so many of us listening, you know, when we're part of the system and we're falling in line with things like the safe and effective narrative, and we're administering these products and really believing what we were told about them, that the science is settled, they are safe and effective, period. It is just, it's really hard to learn about all of these safety deficits. And I think that so many healthcare professionals are recurring quite a bit of moral injury. Uh, same thing as far as the parents that are giving their children these vaccines, thinking that these vaccines are healthy for them and they've been properly safety tested. So, again, to our listeners, um, please just give yourself grace. You know, once we know better, we do better. And like what Dr. Tinpenny was saying, there are just so many routes of information now. There are so many resources that are available to us. And with any medical decision, it's always going to be risk versus benefit analysis. And again, just learning more about history. You know, of course, the medical system, they really thrive when we talk about things like emergency medicine and critical care and things like that. And medicine can be a good thing. If I had sepsis, of course I would want to be on antibiotics. But we know that our healthcare system, unfortunately, there is a lot of industry capture and we cannot deny that. And we know that the pharmaceutical industry in particular has paid out so much money in lawsuits for unethical behavior. And we know that these large companies, they need to be highly regulated because when they are not highly regulated and then when they are allowed to distribute products for which are liability-free for them, we see that quality control goes down. And, you know, I did want to touch on something else that Dr. Tinpenny had mentioned. So Dr. Tinpenny mentioned about the um recent hearing from Senator Ron Johnson. And I do want to spend more time just discussing the injuries that have occurred from the COVID vaccines because it is just astonishing to me. It really is astonishing that these products are still on the market. And I do find it very concerning that children, infants are receiving and have received these vaccines because again, a child, they cannot consent. Okay. Um, it really, and again, it's very highly concerning that there are medical professionals that they really think it's okay for infants to receive COVID vaccines. I really would like to learn a little bit more about their thought process and what is going on in their brain when they make those recommendations. But I do want to play a clip from the Senate hearing that was hosted by Senator Ron Johnson.
SPEAKER_00Of recordings of Zoom calls. This is a video of recordings of Zoom calls between the vaccine injuries. And by the way, React 19, I think I read they've got something like 40,000 active members. Uh they probably would have more if Facebook wouldn't if Facebook had been shutting down their support groups, leading to suicides among those with lack of that support. But this is actually a note in terms of what this video describes here from Brianne Dresson. She writes, beginning in March 2021, seriously COVID-19 vaccine-injured patients were flown to NIH. And this is March 2021, the same time they were made aware of the fact that they were going to mask the safety signals using the algorithm. Vaccine injured patients were flown to NIH headquarters for extensive testing and evaluation and treatment. Study participants, and I think there are about 23 of them. Study participants received credible diagnoses, including uh quote, post-vaccination neuropathy. And again, they were diagnosed as vaccine injury. And specialized treatments, the participants say saved their lives. They were incredibly grateful that the NIH, people like Dr. Nath, were paying attention to them and treating them and improving their severe injuries. That same month, NIH researchers began promising participants that the study and their injuries would be made public. And apparently the email where that promise was made was also uh uh copied to uh Peter Marks and acting FDA Commissioner Janet Woodcock. The NIH then asked participants to remain quiet, say nothing until they disclosed the study themselves. They complied. They feared if they were to go public, they'd lose the treatment, that all the thousands of other injured that were counting on them to be studied, to develop cures wouldn't receive treatment either. So they stayed silent, holding on to the promise that help is coming for the many others nationwide. That study and their injuries were never disclosed to the public. They were lied to. And this video, again, read my report. Senator Bluma, I I cannot believe you read my report based on your opening statement. Read my report. It is irrefutable. But the video is of Peter Marks, Cetisaber, the man who was uh notified on March 1st, 2021, that the survey the safety surveillance system uh that they were gonna use to detect those rare and mile safety signals was invalid. It was gonna mask those, it was gonna hide those very safety signals. Again, 26 days later, an essay the art system showed 25 safety signals, and I read how severe those adverse events were. But just listen to it, Peter Marks, with the knowledge that he was treating vaccine injury, and they weren't mild injuries. These were life-threatening injuries, these were total disability type of injuries. So he knew it. He was treating them. He knew that his service safety surveillance system was masking these signals. They lied to them. Listen to what Peter Marks had to say. It was about a minute-long video.
SPEAKER_01There is incredible BS out there about like thousands of people dying, etc. But that just ain't true. No one's denying that adverse events can occur. That doesn't mean that any given individual might not have had something related to the next. I'm not denying anything. The issue is that the number of cases have not risen uh to a number that that that leads to a clear differentiation, uh, that it's a signal. There's there's not a clear signal that says that we don't have a signal. We continue to to query the various databases, the large databases, still have not seen a signal. You couldn't really tell. Uh you just couldn't tell whether there was a signal or not. It's been something that's been reported, but not as something that is clearly uh vaccine related.
SPEAKER_05You guys know we exist. We know that you know that we exist, but the public doesn't think that you guys know that we exist.
SPEAKER_00That wasn't at the very end there. Again, they were pleading with the officials at the FDA, NIH, that knew they were severely injured by the vaccine. Counting on them to make that public, to study their results so that others could get treated. To this day, they have not done that.
SPEAKER_02And I will also, I'm going to link this in a show notes for you all. So this is a document from the U.S. Senate Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations from Chairman Ron Johnson. And it is titled Unmasked How Biden Health Officials Purposely Turned a Blind Eye Towards COVID-19 safety signals. And I also want to bring attention to the organization that Senator Ron Johnson is referencing, which is called React 19. And it is founded by Brianne Dresson, who she is an individual who she thought she was doing the right thing. She was actually in a trial for the COVID vaccines and then was severely injured. And this organization is really paving the way for support and advocacy for the COVID vaccine injured because this is such a vulnerable population. And like what Senator Ron Johnson was saying, even today, these people are still not getting treatment because the mainstream system is not effectively recognizing these injuries. So this means that these individuals are not getting proper care. So many of them are actually disabled now. And so they're unable to work. So they're unable to go outside of the system and be able to get some type of treatment. And that React 19 is one of the top organizations that we support through Functional Nurse Academy and Christian Functional Medicine Academy. As many of you may know, um, we are very, very involved in humanitarian outreach. We wanted to have an organization that is going to bring glory to the kingdom of God. And by doing one of those things, we really wanted to support vulnerable populations. And that is an organization that we support because they help to provide medical care funds to individuals who were injured from these vaccines. So I will also be dropping their link in the show notes because again, when you still to this day, when you talk about vaccine injuries, there's so much gaslighting, there's so much censorship, and they really are an excellent organization. I meet with them on a yearly basis. And not only are they working to provide medical funds, they also have so many resources as far as, you know, a list of providers that are acknowledging vaccine injury and providing treatment. They also have information as far as they have a published scientific database, they have education, they have webinars. So say that you are a medical provider and you want to learn about how you can properly serve this patient population. They have a lot of wonderful resources. Say that you are not a provider, but maybe you are a nurse or a health coach. This is a really great resource that you can use to just learn more about these injuries and how can you properly advocate and serve these individuals. And I also wanted to mention there has been much debate and concern about the COVID vaccines and about how a potential mechanism may be how it can potentially dysregulate the immune system, specifically in regards to cancer. And one of the mechanisms of action there is with this type of technology, it actually suppresses the toll-like receptors, which is a very, very important function of the immune system. And one of the questions there is okay, well, if we are suppressing the toll-like receptors, especially repeatedly, what is this going to do with individuals who have a history of cancer? Because remember, when an individual develops cancer, cancer is basically like cells gone wild. Okay. And a healthy immune system is what can keep cancer under control. When cancer gets out of control into a disease process, that can be a result of a dysfunctional immune system. And there have been many physicians that are really sounding the alarm about something called turbo cancers, where they are seeing individuals who may have been in remission from cancer for a long time. They received a COVID vaccination, and then their cancer came back with a vengeance, and they ended up passing away pretty quickly from the disease. And then there are also physicians that are sounding the alarm because they are saying that they are seeing unusual cancers in the younger population or in the pediatric population. So there actually was a hearing on um, it was from doctors and scientists that um recently testified about the plausible mechanisms of COVID-19 injections causing cancer and attacks on scientific publications. And this, of course, was another hearing hosted by Senator Ron Johnson. And the witnesses were discussing the biological mechanisms by which COVID-19 vaccines may increase cancer risks and resistance by some scientists and health officials to acknowledge such discoveries. And they do not want to recognize that they may have been wrong about something. We also know that there were insurance companies such as Blue Cross Blue Shield that were providing financial incentives for providers to vaccinate their population with the COVID vaccines. All right, and I'm gonna play just another clip. Now, this is from Senator Ron Johnson in regards to the potential finding that physicians, some physicians are sounding the alarm on, saying that they are finding spike proteins in cancer tumors. So I'm gonna go ahead and play that as well.
SPEAKER_00We would biodistribute all over the body, accumulate in ovaries and the adrenal glands, that type of thing. So we we do know now that they lied to us, it was gonna say they are no biodistributed all over the body. And in doing so, then this little package with modified mRNA that wasn't gonna degrade, it's gonna enter cells all over the body, in the heart, turning those little heart cells into manufacturers of a toxic spike protein. That then what does the body do when there's a toxic spike protein on a cell?
SPEAKER_06I would first of all argue that what happens in mice is not necessarily what happens. No, no, no, no, no.
SPEAKER_00This this happened in humans. They knew when they lied to us, it was gonna say they knew it was gonna biodistribute. That's the point of the study in mice. Spike protein is being found in tumors.
SPEAKER_06We need to further investigate this.
SPEAKER_00I think it's probably safe to say people on the panel, probably most people in this room, including myself. I mean, we we don't dispute the fact that uh vaccines can be helpful and save lives. I I think you can dispute some of the claims, uh, but again, I don't I've never been an anti-vaxxer. Um I think our concern here, and one of the reasons I hold this hearings, is there's just a denial of the vaccine and the injection injuries. Um I'll just again, you you had cervical cancer. Uh we had it at our voice of the vaccine injured, uh a mother, Emily Tarsa, whose daughter, uh 20-year-old daughter, died 18 days after she received her third shot of Gardasil with the HPV vaccine. Uh, after eight years of litigation, this is how difficult it is to actually claim compensation through the government fund. Quote, HHS conceded by proponents of the evidence, including challenge, rechallenge, that her daughter died from HPV vaccination, they had no alternative explanation for her death. So again, I I'm not a vaccine denier. I'm we're battling vaccine injury deniers. That's part of our problem. But uh, you know, Dr. Graylo, uh, you mentioned that uh mRNA uh degrades very rapidly in the body. Is it your understanding and belief that the mRNA in the COVID injections is that type of mRNA?
SPEAKER_06That is my understanding.
SPEAKER_00Have you so you don't realize that that's not true mRNA, that's modified. It's modified pseudouridine, is that the uh so it doesn't degrade. Uh you're you're obviously then unaware of some of the studies that show that the uh spike is is uh in the mRNA is is circulating the body up to two years. We haven't studied it longer than that, but it's it's staying in this body that that long, attaching to the cells. As long as I'm on this track, was it your belief that the uh the injection would stay in the the arm? We were told that it was gonna inject in the arm, stay there, uh create antibodies, the mRNA was gonna degrade very quickly, and that's why it was so safe. Is that your understanding that the and your belief that the injection stays in the arm?
SPEAKER_06Uh I think the effects of the injection are total body. So the immune response, the reaction.
SPEAKER_00So but I mean the the actual so so you're aware the the modified mRNA was encapsulated in the lipid nanopark, correct? So do you believe that package stayed in the arm as we were told it was going to do?
SPEAKER_06I I can't uh reliably comment on on that.
SPEAKER_00So again, you're you're saying how safe and effective this is, but you don't know how it works.
SPEAKER_06I do know how it works. It incites um an immune reaction as vaccines do.
SPEAKER_00Okay, how how how does how does it incite that immune reaction? What does it do? What does it actually do?
SPEAKER_06It brings the immune cells um to recognize the COVID protein.
SPEAKER_00How how how how does it have the are you aware of the fact that the lipid nanoparticle delivers its modified mRNA to a cell? That mRNA that modified mRNA is injected into the cell, and then it turns the cell into a factory, the spike protein, which is toxic to the body. Are you aware that that's how it creates immunity?
SPEAKER_06The mRNA in the vaccine does get into cells and it codes for a protein once it is inside the cell.
SPEAKER_00So are you aware of the DNA contamination found in these vials that if if the mRN is being injected in the cell, well, gee, gee, maybe some of this DNA, which is way beyond the levels accepted by the FDA, could also be injected in the cell. Are you aware of that?
SPEAKER_06I I am aware that the mRNA that is injected does not get into our own DNA. And I am not aware of reliable data saying that within the vaccine itself that the DNA levels are.
SPEAKER_00So you you said that there is no clinical evidence proving these injections cause cancer. How would you what would you require for proof? How would you ever prove that?
SPEAKER_06I believe that we can put some boundaries around how much of an effect could be happening with respect to causing or accelerating cancer because we have not seen an overall increase in cancer rates in the vaccinated US population. In order to prove it, we would need a randomized clinical trial where patients were equal in both arms. One would have a placebo or no vaccine, and uh the other would get the vaccine. And we would need to follow long term.
SPEAKER_00So so observational studies, observe, you know, clinical observation carries no weight, has no evidence.
SPEAKER_06I think it's hypothesis generating. I do think there are major differences between people who choose to have vaccines who are more health engaged and those who choose not to.
SPEAKER_00Well, I I was uh uh sent a apparently a study that's gonna be discussed in the June 8th to 9th uh present cancers presence cancer panel by Chairman Harvey Rich. And apparently the and I don't know what this stands for, the US SEER C or S E E R.
SPEAKER_06Surveillance and Epidemiologic Evidence uh Registry.
SPEAKER_00SEER is actually easy to say. Um this is what Dr. Rich wanted me to talk about. This leukemias are generally the shortest latency cancers, and thus would be the first empirical signs to see pandemic-related effects. USC or cancer incidence data for 2023 were recently released. It is clear that for 2023 there are substantial incidence increases above the trend line for all both sexes, males, uh both sexes uh for every cohort that have in you know in instant increases above the trend line. These charts appear to be the first U.S. data showing that an association between COVID-19 infection or vaccination and leukemias may be possible and should be confirmed by additional data as they become available. Again, I think it's a pretty pretty balanced statement, but uh you know, we we have uh you know Dr. El Deary, who has just laid out plausible mechanisms, you know, concerned. We have Dr. Dalgish, who saw it in his clinic, was highly concerned. Uh again, I I hear from a lot of doctors also see it clinically, observationally. Um, you know, Dr. El Deary talked about uh the cancers seen, you know, at the at the site, at the in the neck. I mean, wouldn't that be indications of causation? Isn't that something that we ought to research?
SPEAKER_06I do believe that we should research this. I think just because there may be some biologic plausibility, because we've seen single cases where a cancer is um diagnosed immediately after a vaccine or in the region, that doesn't mean it began developing at that exact point in time. So let's distinguish between when it developed and when it was diagnosed.
SPEAKER_00So let me address the the other belief where you thought it just stayed in the arm. Uh, there literally was biodistribution studies in rats that said the lipid nanoparker would biodistribute all over the body, you know, accumulate in ovaries and adrenal glands, that type of thing. So we we do know now that they lied to us. It was gonna say they are no biodistributed all over the body. And in doing so, then this little package with modified mRNA that wasn't gonna degrade is gonna enter cells all over the body, in the heart, uh turning those little heart cells into manufacturers of a toxic spike protein. That then what does the body do when there's a toxic spike protein on a cell?
SPEAKER_06I would first of all argue that what happens in mice is not necessarily what happens in the city. No, no, no, no, no.
SPEAKER_00This this happened in humans. Okay, we again they knew it before they knew that when they lied to us, it was gonna say they knew it was gonna biodistribute. That's the point of the the study in mice. They knew it, and now we know it because this is disturbing. One one final question. Does it does it concern you as it concerns mother uh cancer doctors here, oncologists, that spike protein is being found in tumors?
SPEAKER_06I I think we need to further investigate this, explore it, look at how common this is. And I am a scientist, I do believe that we should research, do the research, and have definitive proof, not single cases or population data where the population is.
SPEAKER_00I would say there is no such thing as definitive proof, and we'll get to that later after.
SPEAKER_04So that is testimony.
SPEAKER_02That testimony that I uh just played was from Senator John, Senator Ron Johnson questioning Dr. Julie Grallow, who is the chief medical officer for the American Society of Clinical Oncology. And she testified as a minority witness, and uh she was really backpedaling on the claim that there is no evidence linking COVID-19 vaccines to cancer. And, you know, it's just really interesting that how these individuals will show up at these hearings and they're just not prepared. They don't sufficiently understand how these products work. And what is really surprising to me is the uh pharmacokinetic study that was a biodistribution study of the lipid nanoparticles. And I believe that that was made available to the public. I believe it actually was in 2021, the same year that the vaccines came out. And it was from Pfizer. You know, in the trials, they knew from the study of mice that the lipid nanoparticles will were biodistributing throughout the body. And one of the reasons why so many experts in this area were saying that all of these different injuries were just not possible was because our health authorities, such as the CDC, had a claim on their website saying that the lipid nanoparticle just stayed in the deltoid muscle, which does not make any logical sense. If anybody just does a little bit of research on lipid nanoparticle technology, one of the reasons why it was developed is because lipid nanoparticles have the capacity to transport to the brain. So they never have a claim or any type of evidence to justify that it just stays in the deltoid muscle. It's it's just, it's, it's remarkable. And uh so I will post that in the show notes for you as well. Cause again, it is important to listen, listen to both sides and then to be able to make an informed decision. And also, you know, if we have listeners that if you know individuals that are still receiving these vaccines, please share this information with them. If you know of providers who are still recommending these vaccines, please share this information to them. And um I'm really hoping that this information can really help to open up the minds of others. Because again, you know, we know that mainstream sources tend to be very biased. They tend to be very biased towards industry. We know that industry funds a lot of our legacy media and whatnot. Well, that is all the time that we have today. Before we close, I do want to remind you all, if you are a fed up nurse, I can absolutely train you at the Functional Nurse Academy. FA is the most comprehensive functional nurse training on the market. And all of our graduates receive 90 nursing CEs. They are eligible for multiple board certification titles in functional medicine and even as a holistic nurse. I also don't want to just train you all and send you on your way. So, enrollment also includes six months of free live monthly mentorship with me. If you want to learn more, you can go to functional nurseacademy.com. I also will drop the link for our next informational webinar in the show notes. Until next time, be safe, be well, and God bless. That is all the time that we have today. Thank you so much for tuning in. And again, if you want to learn more about the Functional Nurse Academy, please feel free to register for our next live webinar.
