efore the Covid-19 vaccines for Emergency Use were developed and approved for distribution, there was a need for a thorough understanding of
- How data was collected at local/county public health departments,
- How was the decision to mandate the vaccine assessed and determined?
- Was natural immunity discussed? If not, why was it not considered?
- Was there guidance imposed at the northern and southern border to stop/limit the spread of the virus? If so, what was it? If not, why not?
- What was the guidance on air and train travel to limit the spread of the virus? Including chemicals used to sanitize flights between flights.
I was tasked with collaborating on the development of a tool to collect data from Senior Living, Assisted Living and General Practitioner Offices in Montgomery County, Maryland by the County’s Public Health Department who reached out to me because they did not have a single epidemiologist on their staff when the ‘pandemic’ hit. The survey that was developed and distributed was then coded, including codes that tracked deaths and their causes. The designation of cause of death as ‘Covid-19’ caught my attention, particularly in cases where a senior was suffering from heart disease or was involved in a car accident, yet the recorded cause of death was ‘Covid-19.’ I raised this concern with the lead of the effort at Montgomery County, Maryland’s Department of Public Health and was informed that this was the method directed by higher authorities. Consequently, this marked my last day of involvement with the County’s Department of Public Health.
Several issues need further investigation on actions during Covid-19 and the implementation of new processes, including:
- Conducting a retrospective analysis of data collection from local Departments of Public Health to determine if the CDC/NIH utilized this data to influence vaccination regulations and whether the data was coded correctly.
- Understanding the rationale behind mandating vaccinations for healthy individuals under the age of 65.
- Exploring the reasoning for not securing the borders effectively and ensuring that Border Patrol was equipped to maintain strict border security during an actual pandemic to prevent the spread of the virus.
- Providing a detailed molecular breakdown of each vaccine (Moderna, J&J, and Pfizer) and exploring efforts to counter any potential damage.
- What was the rationale for not using Ivermectin and Hydroxychloroquine? Was there data of effectiveness for Covid patients pre and post the development of a vaccine?
- Developing policies aimed at limiting the spread of an actual pandemic. The measures that were enforced contrasted sharply with the insufficient actions taken to control spread through travel, especially by air and rail, during Covid-19, which could have led to disastrous outcomes. We need to establish effective strategies to mitigate the risk of future biological attacks or pandemics.
The above is essentially identifying the mishandling of limiting the spread of a pandemic virus or any virus, the actions to limit the use of existing medication prior to the development of a vaccine, the contents of the mandated vaccines and action needed to develop counter measures to possible damages from mandated vaccines.
In fact, for most flying commercial airlines especially in Economy, will report getting ill with a cold or develop a stye in the eye or something else after a flight experience. There is room to improve the limitations of the spread of vaccine. I had reached out to the FAA back in 2017 expressing concern because I experience Stye’s during my frequent travels and tried to join the effort back then not having any idea what was to happen short 2 years later.
