Witness to Tragedy: ‘Huge’ Financial Incentives Led Hospitals to Use COVID Treatments That Killed Patients

Zowe Smith had a fairly mundane job. As a medical coder at an Arizona hospital, her job was to take information from patient records and “translate that into diagnosis and procedure codes.”

But when the COVID-19 shots and COVID-19 hospital protocols were introduced, Smith began to see things she’d never before seen in her career.

“We all believe that this is where people are supposed to go to get better … the hospital is supposed to help you,” Smith told “The Defender In-Depth” this week. “That’s not what was happening.”

Smith resigned and started speaking out about the suffering she saw recorded on patient medical records. She is the author of “The COVID Code: My Life in the Thrill Kill Medical Cult.” She also writes regularly on Substack.

Patients were ‘circling the drain’ soon after administration of COVID protocols

Smith said that medical coding, aside from being used for insurance purposes, is used to track the number of cases of diseases and illnesses regionally and nationwide.

Her job was to expose “the patterns of disease going on” in the population — and she said what she observed during the pandemic led her to begin questioning.

“Even when I was experiencing what I saw, it was almost unbelievable that this could even happen in a hospital,” said Smith, who first noticed abnormalities when the hospital started implementing COVID-19 protocols.

“I started noticing … patients trying to escape the hospital, like unplugging things, pulling out vent tubes and escaping … then I started to hear rumors about the ventilators and I knew that there was a bonus for [giving] remdesivir,” Smith said.

Smith said patients coming in with cold and flu symptoms were treated differently than they had been before the COVID-19 outbreak. “Before COVID, a cold, flu or pneumonia case, you would normally be home within three days, maybe a week, unless you had other major conditions.”

The Covid “Killer Vaccine”. People Are Dying All Over the World. It’s A Criminal Undertaking

We are being accused of  “spreading disinformation” regarding the Covid-19 vaccine. 

The Reuters and AP media “trackers” and “fact checkers” will be out to smear the testimonies of parents who have lost their children.  

“Once the Lie becomes the Truth, there is no moving backwards. Insanity prevails. The world is turned upside down.”

Let us be under no illusions, the Covid Jab is not only “experimental”, it’s a Big Pharma “killer vaccine” which modifies the human genome. The evidence of mortality and morbidity resulting from vaccine inoculation both present (official data) and future (e.g. undetected microscopic blood clots) is overwhelming. 

The official data (mortality and morbidity) as well as numerous scientific studies confirm the nature of the Covid-19 mRNA vaccine which is being imposed on all humanity. 

Peer reviewed reports confirm the causes  of vaccine related deaths and “adverse events” (injuries) including among others blood clots, thrombosis, myocarditis, cardiac arrests.

The stated objective is to enforce the Worldwide vaccination of 8 billion people in more than 190 countries, to be followed by the imposition of a digitized “vaccine passport”. Needless to say this is a multi-billion dollar operation for Big Pharma. It’s a crime against humanity.

The global vaccine project entitled COVAX is coordinated Worldwide by the WHO, GAVI, CEPI, the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation in liaison with the World Economic Forum (WEF),  the Wellcome Trust, DARPA and Big Pharma which is increasingly dominated by the Pfizer-GSK partnership established barely four months before the onset of the Covid-19 crisis in early January 2020.  

The Covid 19 “Vaccine” from the very outset in January 2021 has been conducive to a Worldwide Upward Movement in Mortality

Federal Judge Rules Inmate Death Records Can Remain Secret Because They Could Embarrass Prison Officials

In response to a public records lawsuit filed by the Reason Foundation, the nonprofit that publishes Reason, a federal judge has ruled the U.S. government can hide findings about whether people who died in federal prison received adequate medical care, partly out of fear that those records could be used to criticize prison officials.

U.S. District Court Judge for the District of Columbia Christopher R. Cooper issued an opinion in August that the federal Bureau of Prisons (BOP) was largely not required to disclose redacted information from mortality reviews of in-custody deaths in two federal women’s prisons that have been the subject of numerous accusations of medical neglect.

In addition to finding that the mortality reviews were part of the BOP’s decision-making process, Cooper wrote that the BOP had successfully demonstrated that releasing the records would result in foreseeable harm to the agency. The judge wrote that a declaration from a BOP official credibly established that the mortality reviews could be used to “criticize” or “ridicule” the agency. 

“And, as described above, she notes that the members of the Mortality Review Committee would be ‘deter[red] . . . from acknowledging mistakes’ if they feared those mistakes would be publicized,” Cooper continued.

Reason Foundation, represented by the law office of Deborah Golden, filed a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) lawsuit last year against the BOP seeking mortality reviews of in-custody deaths at FCI Aliceville, a federal women’s prison in Alabama, and FMC Carswell, a federal prison in Texas that is the only medical center for incarcerated women in the BOP system.

Whenever a federal inmate dies, a committee reviews the circumstances and whether BOP policies were violated. The committee then gives recommendations on how care could have been improved. That information could reveal whether the BOP is aware of medical neglect within its walls and how bad the problem is.

Reason reported in 2020 on allegations of fatal medical neglect inside FCI Aliceville. Numerous current and former inmates, as well as their families, said in interviews, desperate letters, and lawsuits that women inside FCI Aliceville faced disastrous delays in health care. They described monthslong waits for doctor appointments and routine procedures, skepticism and retaliation from staff, and terrible pain and fear.

Seeking to learn more, Reason filed a FOIA request in May 2020 for inmate mortality reviews at FCI Aliceville, as well as FMC Carswell. 

When the BOP finally released mortality reviews from FMC Carswell three years later, it redacted any information that would indicate if there was substandard care, such as the review committee’s findings on the timeliness and appropriateness of care; problems encountered during the medical emergency; whether there was adequate documentation in the patient’s medical files; and whether the patient received appropriate care per the BOP’s policies.

The BOP withheld that information under exemption b(5) of the FOIA, which protects “predecisional” or deliberative communications between officials. The National Security Archive dubbed it the “withhold it because you want to” exemption.

Historic Perspective on Excess Deaths

The Economist estimated the 7-day average daily excess death per 100,000 weekly for almost all territories. This is the first of four planned reports on places that got such high weekly averages of daily excess deaths that they defy belief. At its worst, COVID was never more than twice as bad as flu, so when very high death occurs, you wonder.

Back in June of 1957, Asian Flu first hit Rhode Island, USA. By March of 1958, two waves and nine months later, there were an estimated 69,800 dead. Because the U.S. population was 172.74 million at the time, then — for those 9 months — the average daily excess death per 100,000 was 0.148.

Back in 1918, Spanish Flu broke out. The results in India were so bad that they were unlike anywhere else in the world. When the world rate of excess death during the year of 1918 is used — but excluding India — you get 1.334 average daily excess deaths per 100,000.

Way, way back in 1779, smallpox hit Boston, Massachusetts — resulting in an average daily excess death rate of 2.74 per 100,000.

For 4.5 years from mid-1914 to near the end of 1918, the world was at war (WWI). The losing side of the war — the so-called Central Powers — had a total population of 143.1 million but lost over 7 million lives in those 4.5 years. That’s more than 4 times the rate that the winning side lost.

42x increase in Excess Deaths among Children in Europe recorded since COVID Jab was “approved” for Children compared to Pre-Jab levels

Excess deaths among children across Europe, excluding Ukraine have increased by 335% since the European Medicines Agency (EMA) granted Emergency Use Authorisation of the Covid vaccines for use in children in week 21 of 2021 compared to the number of excess deaths recorded during the same time frame prior to EMA granting “authorisation” of the Covid vaccine for children.

In the scorching summer of 2021, a momentous decision swept across Europe, sparking a whirlwind of emotions among parents, who had fallen for the 24/7 propaganda, eagerly awaiting a ray of hope for their children.

The European Medicines Agency (EMA) had finally granted emergency use approval for the use of the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine in children aged 12 to 15.

Relief and elation surged through the hearts of countless naive parents who saw this as a beacon of protection against the alleged pandemic.

Yet, the winds of fortune took an unexpected turn as the vaccine rollout for children commenced. Startling reports emerged, revealing a distressing surge in excess deaths among the young ones across the continent. The sense of optimism quickly faded among the thousands of families affected, and was replaced by a grim reality that cast a shadow over the hopes of many.

Tragically, the statistics paint a haunting picture, with a staggering 362% surge in excess deaths among children aged 0 to 14 by the thirty-fourth week of 2024. These numbers whisper a chilling tale of consequences that were foreseen by many silenced and heavily censored voices.

‘They Have To Be Stopped’: Woman Says COVID Hospital Protocols Caused Husband’s Death

Sharon Smith described the 39-day ordeal her husband, 61-year-old Jeffrey R. Smith, endured after he was hospitalized for minor COVID-19 symptoms. Smith said the hospital’s insistence on administering remdesivir and other drugs — and putting her husband on a ventilator — directly led to his death.

In June 2021, 61-year-old Jeffrey R. Smith was healthy, active and enjoying his 42nd year of marriage to Sharon Smith. That same month, they both came down with COVID-19, but their symptoms were mild and there was little cause for concern.

When Jeffrey’s symptoms lingered just a bit longer than those of his wife, he visited an urgent care center.

That visit marked the beginning of a 39-day ordeal that resulted in his hospitalization, a loss of 47 pounds, and, ultimately, his death, on Aug. 11, 2021, at Mease Countryside Hospital in Safety Harbor, Florida.

Jeffrey’s cause of death was officially listed as COVID-19. But when Sharon examined his approximately 6,000 pages of medical records, she discovered he had sustained kidney damage, likely due to repeated doses of medications including remdesivir, a drug known to stop kidney function in patients.

Sharon also discovered that doctors at the hospital did not treat her husband’s pulmonary embolism — or blood clot — which he developed during his hospitalization. Instead, she alleges doctors insisted she allow him to be placed on a ventilator and that she sign a do not resuscitate (DNR) order for him.

In an interview with The Defender, Sharon said the treatment her husband received at the hospital was incentivized by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s (CDC) COVID-19 hospital protocols — and by the fact that neither she nor her husband had received a COVID-19 vaccine.

Sharon shared extensive documentation with The Defender to corroborate her story.

Febrile Seizures Identified as Potential Cause of Sudden Unexplained Deaths of Children

A study published in the Feb. 13, 2024 journal Neurology designed to investigate the cause of sudden unexplained death of children, which usually occurs during sleep, found that the deaths of seven toddlers examined in the study were related to convulsions, also known as seizures. This finding suggests that many unexplained sleep-related deaths unexpectedly occurring in infants under age one (sudden infant death or SIDS) and in children over age one (sudden unexplained death in childhood or SUDC) may result from seizures.1

The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) reports that there are approximately 3,400 cases of SIDS in infants under one year old every year in the United States with no obvious cause. In 2020, there were 1,389 deaths due to SIDS, 1,062 deaths due to unknown causes, and 905 deaths due to accidental suffocation and strangulation in bed.2

For many decades, researchers have attempted to find an explanation of why SIDS occurs in children and observed that there is a link between SIDS and children with a history of febrile seizures (seizures accompanied by fever). Research in the past suggested that children who died suddenly and unexpectedly were 10 times more likely to have had febrile seizures than children who did not die suddenly and unexpectedly.3 4

According to The Sleep Foundation, febrile seizures are relatively common and 1 in 25 children experience at least one febrile seizure triggered by fever.5

Study Analyzes Home Video Recordings of Child’s Last Sleep Before Death

In the study published in Neurology, the findings were derived from a registry of over 300 SUDC cases that was set up ten years ago by researchers at New York University Grossman School of Medicine. Medical records and video evidence of seven toddlers aged 13 to 27 molnths, who suddenly died in their sleep, were donated by families to the researchers and were analyzed. A team of eight physicians analyzed the home video recordings. The recordings were either time stamped from security systems or commercial crib cameras, while each child was sleeping right before of their death. Six forensic pathologists, a pediatric epileptologist, and a sleep medicine/epileptologist physician reviewed the videos independently.6

Three cases had no significant medical history. Four had common pediatric conditions such preterm birth with recent otitis media (ear infection), chronic otitis media and bilateral myringotomies (surgery to treat chronic ear infections), egg allergy, and febrile seizures. All children had normal development milestones.7

Five of the seven video recordings were continuously running at the time and showed sound and visible motion that indicated an occurrence of a seizure. The remaining two recordings were triggered by sound or motion, but only one suggested that a muscle convulsion (a sign of seizure) had occurred and also only one toddler had a documented previous history of febrile seizures.

The autopsies that were performed revealed no definitive cause of death,  however it is well known that pathological evidence of seizures prior to death is difficult to detect in autopsies.8

Excess Deaths vs. Hospitalizations

The previous edition of this series dealt with Denmark. This is the third report on the contrast between weekly excess death rates and weekly hospitalizations. If progress is made in a pandemic, then you will find lower rates of excess death in relation to hospitalizations — because you are able to keep more who are hospitalized alive.

Here are the weekly excess deaths per million (red) and the weekly hospitalizations per million (blue) for Israel…

Excess Deaths in Australia Correlated to Covid Vaccine Uptake — Study

A peer reviewed study has found a correlation between Covid vaccine administration and excess mortality in Australia. While correlation does not imply causation, it indicates a plausible causation that should be further researched, which it has previously and causation has been confirmed including in Australia.

“The study explores the relationship by Australia State between COVID Booster Vaccinations and excess deaths. There is evidence of a very strong correlation in ordinary least squares regression analysis. Cross-validation tests support the strength of the regression relationship. The results suggest that it would be worthwhile to explore these associations in greater depth as it is an important public health issue,” the study said in the ‘Abstract’ section.

A positive correlation between the shot and extra deaths has been discovered.

A positive correlation describes how when one factor increases or decreases (Covid vaccination) the other factor (excess mortality) moves in the same direction. While correlation does not verify a direct cause-effect relationship between the first and second factor (causation), it does indicate a causal factor may be at play.

Booster doses have the biggest effect on death rates it appears.

Fatal Myocarditis following COVID-19 mRNA Immunization: A Case Report and Differential Diagnosis Review

Carditis in childhood is a rare disease with several etiologies. We report a case of infant death due to pericarditis and myocarditis after the mRNA vaccine against COVID-19 (COVIDmRNAV). A 7-year-old male child received the first dose of the COVIDmRNAV and presented with monoarthritis and a fever non-responsive to oral antibiotics. The laboratory investigation showed signs of infection (leukocytosis, high levels of c-reactive protein). His condition rapidly deteriorated, and the patient died. The autopsy identified pericardial fibrin deposits, hemorrhagic areas in the myocardium, and normal valves. A diffuse intermyocardial inflammatory infiltrate composed of T CD8+ lymphocytes and histiocytes was identified. An antistreptolysin O (ASO) dosage showed high titers. The presence of arthritis, elevated ASO, and carditis fulfills the criteria for rheumatic fever. However, valve disease and Aschoff’s nodules, present in 90% of rheumatic carditis cases, were absent in this case. The temporal correlation with mRNA vaccination prompted its inclusion as one of the etiologies. In cases of myocardial damage related to COVID-19mRNAV, it appears to be related to the expression of exosomes and lipid nanoparticles, leading to a cytokine storm. The potential effects of the COVID-19mRNAV must be considered in the pathogenesis of this disease, whether as an etiology or a contributing factor to a previously initiated myocardial injury.
