Top NIH Official Wanted to Shut Down Research Into COVID-19 Vaccine Injuries: Emails

Top officials with the National Institutes of Health (NIH) expressed misgivings about researchers with the agency studying people with neurological issues after they received COVID-19 vaccines, according to newly released emails.

Dr. Avindra Nath, a senior investigator with the NIH’s National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke, was studying people with post-vaccination neurological problems in 2020 and 2021.

In an email on April 10, 2021, he sent a draft of a paper to the institute’s director, Dr. Walter Koroshetz, that outlined what he had found.

“Early recognition and treatment with corticosteroids can reverse the symptoms,” Nath wrote.

The following day, the institute’s director sent the manuscript to Dr. Anthony Fauci, who at the time was director of another NIH institute.

“There have been steady slow stream of reports to me of post vaccination neurologic conditions, seem to be mostly peripheral nerve disorders … maybe an occasional spinal cord issue,” Koroshetz told Fauci. “Avi has been collecting a bunch. He has a report sent out to publish. Hard to know not due to chance but are timed to the vaccination.”

Another NIH employee sent the manuscript to then-NIH Director Dr. Francis Collins and Dr. Lawrence Tabak, a second top NIH official, and shared that the New England Journal of Medicine rejected the paper.

“What do you make of this?” Collins wrote in response. “The draft letter doesn’t explain how these 32 patients were referred—leaving one to wonder whether this is common or rare.”

Koroshetz told Collins that many reports had been lodged with the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System and that Nath had been attracting referrals because he had appeared on a podcast to discuss neurological problems following COVID-19 vaccination.

Koroshetz also said that Nath, and another employee at his institute, had suffered tinnitus after receiving COVID-19 vaccines, and that Nath had hearing loss.

Collins said the approach taken by Nath’s team was “very troubling,” adding, “collecting anecdotes and then trying to build a case isn’t scientifically compelling—and will have the main consequence of feeding vaccine hesitancy and social media overreaction.”

Multi-Year Study Involving 800+ Embalmers and Funeral Directors Across Five Countries Reveals 75.2% Noticed “Unusual White Fibrous Structures” in Corpses

On June 18, 2026, Sen. Ron Johnson (R-WI) wrote on X: “There has not been a bigger government scandal during my lifetime, and yet even now that we have documented proof of corruption, most of the legacy media refuses to report on it.”

The congressman was referring to his April 29 hearing, highlighting how Biden’s health officials intentionally ignored safety signals regarding COVID-19. Associated with the shot, there have been countless incidents of sudden cardiac death, pulmonary infarction, cerebral artery occlusion, basal ganglia stroke, and agonal rhythm, for example.

Earlier this month, a newly published peer-reviewed study in the International Journal of Innovative Research in Medical Science officially validated the phenomenon of postmortem blood clots that The Gateway Pundit has been reporting on for several years.

The published study was carried out by retired U.S. Air Force Major Thomas F. Haviland, who is a data analyst and mathematician, along with independent researchers Lauro Kasner and Dr. Daniel Santiago, a Doctor of Pharmacy. The researchers performed four annual cross-sectional surveys (2022–2025) targeting active embalmers in the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, Australia, and New Zealand.

The aim of their study was to record, via anonymous surveys, the frequency of reported sightings of these strange white fibrous structures, the percentage of corpses impacted, and the timeline of their initial appearance.

Starting in 2020–2021, embalmers and funeral directors from various countries began to notice “large, tough, rubbery white or off-white fibrous structures in the veins and arteries of embalmed corpses,” which they identified as being different from traditional postmortem clots. These structures were described as “larger, more extensive, tougher, and different in color and handling from traditional chicken-fat or currant-jelly clots.” Some measured several inches to more than a foot long, occasionally reaching the length of a limb.

COVID Vaccine in Early Pregnancy Led to Higher Rates of Two Birth Defects

A new study from Iran found that two rare birth defects — atrioventricular septal defects and cleft palate — occurred more often in infants whose mothers received an aluminum-containing COVID-19 vaccine during the first 12 weeks of pregnancy compared with mothers who received the vaccine later or not at all.

A new study from Iran found that two rare birth defects — atrioventricular septal defects (AVSD) and cleft palate — occurred more often in infants whose mothers received a COVID-19 vaccine during the first 12 weeks of pregnancy compared with mothers who received the vaccine later or not at all.

Unlike studies conducted in the U.S. and Europe, none of the women in the Iranian study received mRNA vaccines — however, all of the COVID-19 vaccines available in Iran contain 0.25-0.50 milligrams of aluminum adjuvant, Children’s Health Defense Senior Research Scientist Karl Jablonowski told The Defender.

Shots containing aluminum are not typically recommended for pregnant women in their first trimester, Jablonowski said.

Participants in the new study received either inactivated-virus or viral-vector COVID-19 vaccines. Researchers anonymized the specific vaccine brands “due to ethical and regulatory constraints.”

Other Iranian studies indicate that China’s Covilo, also known as Sinopharm, is the most commonly administered COVID-19 vaccine in Iran. That shot, Coviran Barkat, and the India-produced Covaxin were available in Iran at the time of the study.

The study, published last month in Sage Open Medicine, analyzed 1,352 pregnancies from two Iranian cities between 2022 and 2023.

Researchers compared three groups: 303 women who received no COVID-19 vaccine during pregnancy, 262 women who received at least one dose between conception and 11 weeks, 6 days of gestation — the window when fetal organs form — and 787 women vaccinated after the first trimester.

The authors said they were motivated by a gap in the research: COVID-19 vaccination is widely recommended for pregnant women worldwide, yet few studies have examined the link between early-pregnancy vaccination and birth defects.

“Research assessing whether these vaccines could influence embryonic development is crucial,” they wrote.

The authors cautioned that their findings are preliminary, based on small numbers of cases, and do not establish that vaccination caused the birth defects.

Jablonowski agreed that the study can’t establish causation but said it offers a starting point.

“It can generate hypotheses, and with this study, we’ve been handed a really good argument to start generating hypotheses,” particularly about vaccines that contain aluminum adjuvants.

Birth defects rare, but more common among women vaccinated in first trimester

Researchers evaluated birth defects detected during routine prenatal ultrasound examinations performed between 18 and 20 weeks of pregnancy between 2022 and 2023 among women in two major Iranian cities.

Demographic and pregnancy characteristics were relatively balanced across the groups, as were previous COVID-19 infection rates.

Although birth defects were uncommon overall, the researchers found that women vaccinated during the first trimester had babies who had them at higher rates.

Among the findings:

  • Six cases of AVSD, a congenital heart defect, occurred in the first trimester, compared with none in the unvaccinated group and one in the group of women who received the vaccine after the first trimester.
  • Two cases of cleft palate occurred among women vaccinated before 12 weeks, compared with no cases in either comparison group.

The study did not capture spontaneous abortions occurring before routine ultrasound screening, or pregnancies terminated before anomaly scans, the authors said.

The Official Louisiana State Data Has No Other Explanation: US Childhood Vaccines Are Increasing Infant Mortality

Executive summary

This is it. This is the big one. Finally.

This is the story of the most damaging childhood vaccine study ever done.

I asked all four major AI engines to predict the outcome before showing them the results. All four said the same thing: the OR will be <1 and there will be minimal sex differences.

The actual result: OR >1 in 54/55 subgroup analyses and massive sex differences.

You would simply never see these results if the childhood vaccines were safe.

Nobody can explain the relatively higher deaths in the vaccinated cohorts if they were not caused by the vaccines. They all try to deceive you into believing the study methodology is subject to confounders and should be considered unreliable.

There are 3 biases that impact this study:

  1. Selection bias: The healthy vaccinee effect moves OR < 1 so that doesn’t explain the signal.
  2. Immortal time bias: This was caused by requiring everyone to be vaccinated before they die. Thus, if all kids are never vaccinated <60 days, then the unvaxxed group cannot die until they’ve been vaccinated. This was a big oversight in the paper. It might move OR > 1 depending on the data. If most all kids had their first vaccine < day 60 like their HepB vaccinate at birth, then this bias makes no difference. I’ve made the study authors aware of this. The limitation can be corrected by requiring a vaccination record match found prior to the landmark date (day 90).
  3. Right truncation bias: This affects only the Vaxelis group because Vaxelis was only available starting in 2021 so these recipients had less time to die than the unvaccinated group. This inflates the OR for the vaccinated group, but even after correction, it’s still a problem. I’ve made the study authors aware of this.

All Bradford Hill causality criteria are satisfied. So this isn’t just correlation. This is CAUSATION. The sex signal is not subject to any of the biases identified above.

This means that the recommended vaccines for 2 month old kids are unsafe.

There is no credible way to attack this study.

Bipartisan Bill Would Move COVID Vaccine Injury Claims Into VICP in Biggest Reform Push in Decades

U.S. House of Representatives lawmakers on Tuesday introduced bipartisan legislation to overhaul the National Vaccine Injury Compensation Program (VICP), proposing to move pending COVID-19 vaccine injury claims into the program.

The Vaccine Injury Compensation Modernization Act would transfer covered COVID-19 vaccine injury claims from the Countermeasures Injury Compensation Program (CICP) into the VICP.

The bill would also update compensation limits, expand vaccine coverage and increase the number of officials who decide claims.

React19, a nonprofit that advocates for people injured by COVID-19 vaccines, called the proposal the “most significant effort in decades to restore fairness to America’s vaccine injury compensation system.”

“For React19’s community, the bill represents far more than a policy proposal,” the organization said. “It represents hope.”

React19 co-founder Brianne Dressen said the legislation reflects years of advocacy by people who felt they had been forgotten.

“Today is the culmination of years of relentless advocacy by people who refused to let their injuries be ignored,” Dressen said. “This legislation sends an important message: every American deserves to be heard.”

House Ways and Means Committee members Lloyd Doggett (D-Texas) and Lloyd Smucker (R-Penn.) introduced the bill.

‘Everybody knows someone who has been injured now’

Wayne Rohde, a longtime vaccine injury compensation advocate and author who has written extensively about the VICP, said the bill addresses an issue lawmakers can no longer ignore.

“We need to address the injuries caused by the COVID vaccine,” Rohde told The Defender. “If we’re going to have a viable vaccine policy in the U.S., if we do not compensate those who have been injured, [then in] the next pandemic, you will see a complete withdrawal from the public to accept any countermeasures because everybody knows someone who has been injured now.”

At the same time, Rohde said he has reservations about moving COVID-19 vaccines into the VICP because the legislation could bring additional vaccines developed with similar mRNA technology into the program.

“I have concerns about the technology used to develop it, and that it will allow traditional vaccine manufacturers to use that same technology for other vaccines covered in the program,” he said.

He also noted that the bill would expand VICP coverage to additional adult vaccines.

“If they add RSV, shingles and dengue, what that tells me is that the next vaccine down the pike will be swept into program, too,” Rohde said.

The VICP currently covers only those vaccines the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommends for routine administration to children and pregnant women.

As ICAN Warned, RSV Vaccine for Pregnant Women May Pose Risks

Three years ago, ICAN sent a letter to members of FDA’s vaccine committee warning of the dangers of Pfizer’s RSV pregnancy vaccine, Abrysvo. A recent study supports ICAN’s position that those concerns were warranted.

In May of 2023, ICAN’s legal team sent a letter to the Vaccines and Related Biological Products Advisory Committee (VRBPAC), the FDA committee that makes recommendations on whether or not a new vaccine should be approved. In the letter, ICAN asked the committee to hold off on recommending the approval of Abrysvo until concerning safety signals from the clinical trials had been further investigated. The committee ignored ICAN’s warnings and, shortly after, FDA approved the vaccine.

ICAN’s letter highlighted the following concerns from the Abrysvo clinical trial: “In mothers, serious adverse events included prolonged labor, premature delivery, postpartum hemorrhage, arrested labor, and gestational hypertension, the most frequent of which were preeclampsia and fetal distress.”

A recent study shows safety signals for pregnancy-associated hypertensive disorders (including gestational hypertension), premature rupture of membranes (PROM), and preterm PROM, after receipt of the Abrysvo vaccine. In fact, even though this study was sponsored by Pfizer, the study authors couldn’t avoid stating that “[f]urther epidemiological studies are needed to refine risk estimates….”

What are these ‘calamari-like’ clots that embalmers keep finding?

Retired Air Force Major Thomas Haviland’s peer-reviewed research exposes a persistent phenomenon that the mainstream medical establishment continues to ignore.

A new peer-reviewed paper published July 1 in the International Journal of Innovative Research and Medical Science breaks down what embalmers across English-speaking countries have discovered in recent years: tough, rubbery, white fibrous clots appearing in a significant percentage of bodies long after the COVID-19 pandemic and vaccine rollout.

Thomas Haviland, a retired U.S. Air Force Major, began investigating this phenomenon after watching the 2022 documentary Died Suddenly. He has since conducted annual surveys of embalmers in the United States, Canada, the UK, Australia, and New Zealand. His latest analysis of 808 responses from 2022 through 2025 found that 75% of embalmers reported seeing the unusual clots.

“The embalmers are seeing these white fibrous clots in an average of 23% of their corpses,” Haviland stated.

A separate, more recent, 2026 survey of Tennessee embalmers showed roughly 70% still observing the clots in 18% of cases, according to Haviland.

Notably, these structures differ sharply from clots seen before 2020. “Many of these embalmers have 20 or 30 years of experience, never saw this phenomenon before,” Haviland explained.

“Prior to COVID, they would see two types of clots. What’s called grape jelly clots… And they also see what’s called chicken fat clots… Much, much different than these large white fibrous clots, which are really tough and rubbery and hard to break.”

Haviland also shared the account of an endovascular specialist and cardiologist in Jacksonville, Florida, who contacted him about removing similar clots from living patients at his lab. “He actually refers to the clots as devious clots,” Haviland said. After sharing images and angiograms, the doctor emailed in March 2024 to tell Tom that he had been instructed to terminate communication immediately.

“Somebody, his hospital administrator probably got to him, right? Told him to shut up, stop talking about this, or else we’ll go after your medical license,” Haviland observed. “So it’s a shame. That’s what’s happening. People are staying silent about this when they should be speaking out.”

Laboratory tests on the clots, including Raman spectroscopy and others, point to the spike protein — whether from the virus, modified RNA injections, or both — sticking to a blood protein called fibrinogen and creating unusual structures. “It makes that fibrinogen all misfolded and twisted… So then it becomes almost impossible to break down the clot. It becomes this rubbery polymer instead,” Haviland said.

Despite repeated submissions of survey results to the FDA, CDC, and NIH, and the publication of supporting papers, major health agencies and institutions including the Mayo Clinic, Cleveland Clinic, Johns Hopkins, and Stanford have shown no interest in obtaining samples for further study.

Although Haviland’s initial preprint was rejected by one platform as “not novel enough,” four years later, embalmers continue to report the never-before-seen clots into 2026.

Haviland and others behind his research are calling for forensic pathologists and independent researchers to examine the structures directly and for congressional hearings to investigate what embalmers have been documenting for years.

Correcting the New York Times ACIP Reporting on Vaccine Injury

Seeing Sunday’s New York Times headline titled “Confidential Report Calls for Sweeping Changes to Track Covid Vaccine Harms,” a reflexive question flashed in the minds of even the most staunch defenders of legacy vaccine policy – is the NY Times about to dismiss the Covid vaccine-injured?

For those who don’t care to read the outlet’s reporting, here are what the authors chose to add as closing words:

“The basis of supposed Covid vaccine injury syndrome is even less persuasive and thus even less directly relevant to vaccine policy…”

For experienced readers, seeing who the article’s lead author is should have caused pause immediately. When it comes to journalistic integrity, Apoorva Mandavilli is not who comes to mind.

In an October 6, 2021 NYT article titled ”A New Vaccine Strategy for Children: Just One Dose, for Now,” Mandavilli stated that 900,000 US children have been hospitalized due to Covid. She was forced to correct the glaring error when the real number was found to be slightly more than 63,000.

In 2022 Mandavilli reported on the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s (CDC) recommendation of Pfizer’s Covid shot for kids aged 5-11. The NY Times initially reported, “Nearly 4,000 children aged 5 to 11 have died from a Covid-related condition called multisystem inflammatory syndrome during the pandemic.”

Mandavilli was again forced to add a correction

If a SIDS-vaccine study offends, remove it

In 2021 Toxicology Reports published Neil Miller’s results of his examination of VAERS reports of 2,605 SIDS deaths between 1990 and 2019:

The peer-reviewed paper found that 75% of SIDS reports occurred within seven days of vaccination, with the highest number on day two. [snip] The journal removed the paper April 9, 2026, citing “serious methodological flaws” and “potential implications for medical practice.” Miller said the journal never specified what those flaws were, despite repeated requests.

Sen. Ron Johnson (R-Wis.) wrote a letter on June 29 demanding that “Toxicology Reports and its parent company Elsevier release all records related to the decision to remove the paper. HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. HHS also wrote to the journal June 11 seeking clarification.”

Neil Miller is careful to say that his paper correlating vaccines with SIDS does not prove causation. But reclassifying ICD codes to remove vaccine-related deaths and purging papers that expose shocking statistics to the contrary smacks of the deliberate suppression of information unfavorable to the vaccine industry.

This is not to damn vaccines: in the first half of the 20th century alone, smallpox is credited with killing 254 million people. Vaccines eliminated that disease. Although tuberculosis can be treated by medicine, the scourge of that devastating disease was largely vanquished by vaccines.

Multi-billion-dollar industries engender powerful — some may say insurmountable — incentives to grow and continue to grow, continuously. The vaccine industry is no exception.

The CDC maintains that children need vaccines starting within 24 hours of birth through age 18, comprising approximately 15-17 vaccines across 26-30 doses. The CDC fails the public when they create the impression of stacking the deck in favor of the industry by “reclassifying” or withholding contradictory information. Absence of absolute proof of harm is no excuse when the degree of safety remains unproven. Parents are entitled to access to all available information regarding the risks as well as the benefits of vaccines.

Brian Hooker’s paper showing vaccines increase mortality was REMOVED from preprints.org

They censored this paper as a danger to public safety. This means they know the paper is incorrect and can explain the observed data. But they are keeping their analysis a secret. From everyone, including the authors.

So Karl wrote the entire advisory board. Only ONE member bothered to respond with the reasoning. The rest ghosted him.

But the BIG problem is that the “reasoning” does not EXPLAIN what the study observed. At all. We are left clueless. If the vaccines didn’t increase the mortality, then what did? All we have is COMPLETE SILENCE.

In this article I’ll post what the Advisory Board member wrote and what I wrote back.
