The Treatment Was Worse Than the Disease

On December 12, 1799, George Washington returned to Mount Vernon after several hours on horseback in snow, hail, and freezing rain. The next day he developed a sore throat and hoarseness, and in the early morning of December 14 he awoke struggling to breathe and swallow. Doctors were called, and what happened next is now one of the most talked-about medical cases in American history.

Washington did not lack medical care. In fact, he received a lot of attention from three skilled physicians, who used the treatments they thought best for someone as sick as he was, such as repeated bloodletting and other methods meant to reduce inflammation and restore balance. Late that night, Washington died.

Even now, more than 200 years later, we are not sure exactly what disease killed Washington. Some experts have suggested acute bacterial epiglottitis, severe pharyngitis, peritonsillar infection, or other causes of upper-airway blockage [1]. What is clear is that Washington lost a large amount of blood, by most estimates about 80 ounces, through repeated bloodletting while he was already very sick. His doctors did not mean to harm him. They thought removing blood would control the inflammation, but it made him worse. Their actions followed a long-standing medical tradition, supported by accepted theories, experience, and the authority of many generations of doctors.

It is easy to look back at this story and feel superior because of our modern knowledge. Today, we understand things like oxygen delivery, blood volume, shock, infections, airway care, IV fluids, antibiotics, and advanced life support. Washington’s doctors did not have this knowledge. But calling them primitive misses the real point. They were trained doctors using the best knowledge they had to try to save their patient. The real question is not why doctors in 1799 believed bloodletting would help. Instead, we should ask which treatments we use today with the same confidence that future doctors might find hard to believe.

Bill Gates Predicts A Billion Deaths Via Evolutionary Event

Bill Gates is back on the Sunday-show circuit spreading doom and predicting a massive reduction in the human population.

In an exclusive Meet the Press interview set to air this weekend, the Microsoft co-founder told Kristen Welker that artificial intelligence is “certainly powerful enough to drive events that… cause a billion deaths” – then used the line to demand federal legislation, law-enforcement monitoring, and an end to industry self-regulation.

Gates is touting AI as a species-level emergency, and calling for handing over total control to politicians and a new class of global inspectors.

Welker put the extinction question to him directly: “Do you believe AI is powerful enough to end all of humanity?”

Gates answered: “AI is certainly powerful enough to drive events that, you know, cause a billion deaths, you know, so even though it’s pretty hard to get to 100%, there’s never been a weapon as powerful as the combination of people with ill intent using the latest AI tools.“

Army flight surgeon drops bombshell: 29 troop deaths after COVID shot, 55,000 adverse-events, and 2,500 death files now under review

A bombshell sworn declaration filed in federal court is raising new questions about the Biden-era COVID-19 vaccine mandate imposed on America’s military.

According to TrialSite News, Army Lt. Col. Theresa Long, a retired Army flight surgeon now serving as senior medical military adviser to Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and reporting to War Secretary Pete Hegseth, filed a sworn declaration in Adirim v. U.S. Central Intelligence Agency et al., in the Eastern District of Virginia.

Long told the court she has firsthand knowledge of more than 29 service-member deaths after COVID-19 vaccination and that she has been tasked with examining roughly 55,000 military-linked adverse-event reports, including 2,544 death reports in the federal Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS).

“I have first hand knowledge of over 29 deaths of servicemembers after vaccination with the COVID-19 vaccines. I am currently tasked with investigating the 55,000 vaccine adverse event reports filed on individuals identified as members of the U.S. Armed Forces, this includes 2544 deaths.

“As the first aviation brigade surgeon I had one servicemember die of rapid onset and progression of esophageal cancer after COVID vaccination and one in which a student pilot who had never been COVID positive, who experienced sudden cardiac death at the controls of a helicopter during a training flight.

“An independent cardiologist evaluated all imaging, labs and history on the student pilot and determined that myocardial injury secondary to the COVID-19 vaccines was the most likely cause.

A Nasal PCR Test Is Not an Autopsy: The Pennsylvania ‘Measles Death’ That Was Declared Before Anybody Looked

The vaccine cartel is using an old strategy of fear based on news stories about nasal PCR measles positive cases. Somehow the CNN reporter knows nothing about what happened clinically in the case but declares the woman was “unvaccinated.”

The Pennsylvania “Measles Death” That Wasn’t

The CNN headline is doing what mainstream outlets do best: manufacturing a vaccine-compliance morality tale out of a woman who died of end-stage lung disease. Let’s actually read the article — not the headline — and the story unravels almost instantly.

Leaked Data Show Israel Covered Up HUNDREDS of COVID Shot Deaths and Hospitalizations Within Weeks of Vaccine Rollout

A newly published peer-reviewed study has exposed an internal Israeli Ministry of Health pharmacovigilance dataset documenting 531 hospitalizations and 67 deaths within weeks of mass COVID-19 “vaccine” rollout.

Nearly half of all hospitalization reports involved myocarditis or pericarditis. Among people under 30, that figure surged to 151 of 211 (71.6%), including 48 patients under 18.

But the most important revelation was how early Israeli authorities had this information. By March 25, 2021, barely three months into the vaccine rollout, Israel had already reported to Pfizer 46 deaths, 157 hospitalizations, and 65 myocarditis/pericarditis cases. These were not retrospective estimates assembled years later; they came from an operational Ministry of Health pharmacovigilance dataset used to document serious events considered relevant enough to report directly to the manufacturer. The median reported interval from vaccination to death was just 3 days.

Israel had already alerted the CDC and European Medicines Agency to approximately 40 myocarditis cases by the end of February 2021. By March 25, the internal records contained the 46 deaths, 157 hospitalizations, and 65 myocarditis/pericarditis reports described above. Yet the study reconstructs a delay of roughly three to four months before the myocarditis signal was meaningfully communicated to clinicians and the public.

When the risk was finally acknowledged, the public messaging emphasized that myocarditis was “rare,” “mild,” and transient and that vaccination benefits outweighed the risks. That characterization was fraudulent given their internal record containing hundreds of serious hospitalizations, severe cardiac injury, and deaths.

2,544 Unverifiable Deaths: Nobody in the Pentagon Looked, and Autopsies Were Never Done

One unexplained death in a young, fit, pre-screened soldier should have been a red flag. There are now over two and a half thousand reports, and almost no pathology to read them by.

Soldiers are screened before they serve. They are young, active and medically cleared, which makes them the cleanest population in the country for spotting harm from a new drug or vaccine. If even one of them had died shortly after receiving one, with no other explanation, that alone should have triggered a hard look.

Instead, the number now under review is 2,544. They are service member deaths reported to the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System, or VAERS, and an Army physician has been assigned to examine them, according to a court deposition first reported by Politico. Every one of them is unverified. A VAERS entry means somebody judged the timing close enough to record. It does not establish cause, and nobody should pretend it does.

The Fauci disclosures reopened the pandemic file this year, and this review is one consequence. The harder question is what it would take to move any of those cases from unverified to verified, and how much of that evidence was never collected in the first place.

Who Is Asking

The physician is Lieutenant Colonel Theresa Long, now senior military medical adviser to Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., an appointment made by Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth. Her record matters, because the credibility of the review rests on it. She earned her medical degree in Texas in 2008 and spent ten years as a field surgeon. She then trained in aerospace and occupational medicine at the Army’s aviation medicine school and added a master’s in public health. Before the pandemic, infectious disease physicians from the Army, Navy and Air Force briefed her on emerging biological threats. Looking for exactly this kind of problem was her job.

The appointment also reflects a principle. Every inquiry into what went wrong in the pandemic has so far been staffed by people who maintained that nothing went wrong, and each returned the verdict you would predict. Handing the question to someone who spent 2021 trying to raise it is a different design, whatever you make of the politics.

The Monitoring System That Did Not Exist

Long’s account, set out in a sworn affidavit that later reached Senator Ron Johnson’s Senate inquiry, reads like a paper trail of doors closing.

In June 2021 she emailed senior leaders asking why, when a novel virus had emerged next to a virology laboratory, the military had not treated it as a potential bioweapon until proven otherwise. Her training required that assumption: act as if the worst case is true and stand down when the evidence allows. She was called a conspiracy theorist and told that everyone knew it came from the wet market.

In August 2021 she wrote to an epidemiologist at the Defense Health Agency to advise on monitoring vaccine risks. The reply, as recorded in her affidavit, was that the military had no internal system for reporting and tracking vaccine adverse events. None. Two months after a myocarditis signal appeared in the medical literature, the surveillance did not exist.

She was moved to limited duties as a brigade flight surgeon, seeing patients with no command authority. On 29 September 2021, five student pilots came through her clinic. Three had been vaccinated. She thought they had pericarditis. The Army disagreed, and raising it cost her further.

That settles one point. When the Pentagon said there was no evidence of harm in 2021, it was describing a system with no mechanism for producing any.

“When someone is telling you there is no evidence, what they mean is no one has looked and no one cares to look,” said Dr. Philip McMillan.

MMR Vaccine-Linked Deaths Outnumber Measles Deaths in 2026

So far in 2026, there have been ZERO confirmed measles deaths and at least THREE MMR vaccine-linked deaths in the United States.

Yet Americans hear virtually nothing about deaths occurring after MMR vaccination. Instead, the captured mass media blasted out headlines claiming that two children in Pennsylvania had died from measles—claims that have since fallen apart under scrutiny. Meanwhile, three highly concerning MMR-linked deaths have already appeared in VAERS this year:

2026 U.S. MMR VACCINE DEATH REPORTS (VAERS): 3

1-year-old boy: fatal cardiac arrest just ONE DAY after MMR

The first case involves a 1-year-old boy who suffered fatal cardiac arrest just one day after receiving MMR. The extraordinarily short interval makes the report impossible to simply dismiss as some distant event occurring long after vaccination. Along with MMR, he was also subjected to a battery of four additional vaccines—Varivax, Havrix, Vaxelis, and Prevnar 20—for five vaccines total at the same visit. The child was hyper-vaccinated and died the following day.

1-year-old girl: died from disseminated rubella after MMR

The second case is even more biologically concerning. A 1-year-old girl died from disseminated rubella after receiving MMR. She reportedly had an undiagnosed primary immunodeficiency when she was vaccinated.

This matters because MMR does not contain an inert rubella antigen. It contains a live attenuated rubella virus designed to replicate in a controlled manner and generate immunity. In a person with severe immune dysfunction, however, the immune system can fail to adequately contain or eliminate the attenuated virus. Instead of remaining limited, vaccine-strain virus can persist and disseminate into tissues throughout the body leading to multi-organ failure.

76-year-old woman: vaccine-strain measles detected during fatal pneumonia

The third case may be the most remarkable of all. A 76-year-old woman developed measles vaccine-associated pneumonia after receiving MMR, progressed to severe respiratory failure, and died after a 16-day hospitalization.

Critically, vaccine-strain measles was detected in her respiratory tract, including pulmonary samples. In other words, this was not simply a patient who happened to test positive for measles after vaccination. Molecular testing identified the vaccine strain itself.

The measles component of MMR is also a live attenuated virus. In immunocompromised individuals, the weakened virus can escape normal immune control, continue replicating, and produce serious systemic disease. When that process involves the lungs, it can produce measles pneumonitis or pneumonia, impair oxygen exchange, and progress to respiratory failure.

2026 U.S. MEASLES DEATHS: 0

Now contrast those three reports with what happened in Pennsylvania.

US Army doctor claims 28 troops died from Covid vaccines – Politico

A US Army doctor has testified that she knows of 28 US military deaths caused by Covid-19 vaccines, Politico has reported citing a court deposition. The US government is investigating 2,544 deaths reported following the jabs, the official has said.

Theresa Long, who also serves as an adviser to US Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., reportedly gave the testimony during an August 14 deposition in a federal court case in Virginia. Neither her testimony nor her role at the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) had previously been reported.

Long allegedly said that the 2,544 unverified deaths were reported to the department’s Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS).

Former US President Joe Biden ordered all US military staff to be vaccinated or be discharged from service, resulting in over 9,000 dismissals. After returning to office, President Donald Trump ordered the Pentagon to offer reinstatement to those who had been discharged for refusing a vaccine.

RESIGN: Democrat Josh Shapiro Still Refuses to Answer Basic Questions on Two So-Called Measles Deaths — Second Person Still Unkown

Pennsylvania Democrat Governor Josh Shapiro is still refusing to provide the public with basic information about two deaths his administration labeled “measles-associated,” even after the Lancaster County coroner determined that one of the individuals, a newborn baby, died from a ruptured spleen and massive blood loss, not measles.

During a Friday press conference, a reporter confronted Shapiro directly about the serious discrepancy between his administration’s explosive announcement and the findings of Lancaster County Coroner Dr. Stephen Diamantoni.

“Since you had your news conference in Lancaster, we’ve learned a little bit more information about the case with the baby—that it was a newborn,” the reporter said.

“The coroner said that it was a ruptured spleen and didn’t consider it a measles death,” she continued. “Given the fact that we’re in an environment where there is misinformation and there is confusion, why not be a little more specific and transparent about that case?”

Shapiro would not answer. He waved the question off as if Pennsylvanians were not entitled to know whether their governor just stood in a hospital and used a dead infant as a political prop.

The Democrat governor dismissed the growing demands for transparency as “conspiracy theories.”

“I don’t think it serves the interest of public health or slows the spread of this outbreak for me to get into a back-and-forth about conspiracy theories that are showing up online,” Shapiro said.

Does the Flu Vaccine Prevent Death?

Dear Editor,

My letter is concerned with a topic of utmost importance: The effect of the flu vaccine on flu-related death. That’s the ultimate endpoint of interest for vaccine effectiveness (VE) research, yet it is not captured in most studies that employ the test-negative design.

Faksova et al. (January 2026) reported in your journal results from a large cohort study of the flu vaccine in 2024–2025 in elderly residents (age≥65) of three Nordic countries. The estimated VE against flu-related death was 63%, which corresponds to a risk ratio (RR) of 0.37. How robust is the result? What does sensitivity analysis show?

The authors relied on a matched design to avoid confounding bias, a major threat in observational research. Unvaccinated members of the cohort were matched to the vaccinated (one-to-one matching) on several variables, including key comorbidities.

Sweden was not included in the mortality analysis (small numbers), and the mortality graphs were displayed by country (Denmark, Finland). I will examine the data from Denmark, a matched cohort of over one million people.

Graphs of cumulative mortality by vaccination status were displayed as of 14 days after a matched index date. For a vaccinated person, the index date was the vaccination date; for their unvaccinated counterpart, that matched date was just a random date on the calendar. I will return to this point later when we discuss their health status.
