“The newness of the COVID vaccine makes it easy to blame, Ammon says, and this is reinforced when some public figures make false claims that the vaccine is harmful.”

As the number of sudden and unexpected deaths continue to mount around the world since late-December – when the Covid-19 vaccines began to be administered – naturally more and more people are starting to become a tad bit more privy to what is actually at hand.

To start-off 2023 a new poll was published courtesy of Rasmussen Reports revealed that a quarter of Americans believe the Covid vaccines are dangerous and know someone that may have died from them, The WinePress reported.

The WP has reported a plethora of times on the evidence that people are significantly dying more at random than they ever have in the modern era.

But now mainstream media are pushing back against these “conspiracy theories.” One of the more recent examples of this can be evidenced by a post by Yahoo, citing “experts” who explain why this mindset is “harmful.”

Yahoo wrote the following:


There’s a disturbing pattern that has emerged over the past few years: Whenever a public figure dies or has a major health problem, some people blame it on the COVID-19 vaccine. Case in point: Google searches for “Damar Hamlin COVID vaccine” skyrocketed after the Buffalo Bills player collapsed on the football field last week. So did searches for Bob Saget and the vaccine, and Betty White and the COVID-19 vaccine after their respective deaths.

Data even show that there is a solid group of people who mistakenly believe that the COVID-19 vaccine — which doctors and major health organizations have repeatedly stressed is safe — is responsible for a sizable number of deaths. In fact, one recent survey found that 1 in 4 Americans believe that someone they know died from the COVID-19 vaccine. 

Unfortunately, experts don’t think this phenomenon is likely to go away. “The vaccine has become a scapegoat for a range of things,” Thea Gallagher, a clinical assistant professor of psychology at New York University Langone Health and co-host of the Mind in View podcast, tells Yahoo Life. But what’s behind this fear, and why does it keep coming up? Here’s the deal.

There are a lot of layers to it, Gallagher says.

When something tragic happens, we want to understand and make meaning of it. It’s very hard for us to tolerate uncertainty and knowing that this could potentially happen to us. People try to look for someone or something to blame.

The COVID-19 vaccine has become a lightning rod for these situations because it’s newer, she explains.

People have also had “strong opinions on vaccines” in general for years, Hillary Ammon, a clinical psychologist at the Center for Anxiety & Women’s Emotional Wellness, tells Yahoo Life.

While most vaccines have been tested in clinical trials and are considered safe for the general public, there’s an uncertainty about taking vaccines, and always some risks, in addition to the benefits of vaccines.

She says. 

Generally, uncertainty can be uncomfortable. There is always a group of people out there that is anti-vaccine and anti-science — they will always want to blame medical issues on the vaccine.

Dr. Thomas Russo, chief of infectious diseases at the University at Buffalo in New York, told Yahoo Life

The newness of the COVID vaccine makes it easy to blame, Ammon says, and this is reinforced when some public figures make false claims that the vaccine is harmful.

Finally, people like to be right.

Some people have a belief that these vaccines can lead to other health issues, whether that be true or a theory. Therefore, before they might have actual evidence, they may try and tie any illness or death that hits the headlines to the COVID vaccines. It fits their narrative and makes their beliefs true: ‘I had this worry, and look, I was right!’

Ammon says.

This, she says, is a phenomenon known as “confirmation bias,” when people interpret information in order to conform with their beliefs, while ignoring facts that do not support their beliefs.

Data have repeatedly shown that COVID-19 is more dangerous and deadly than any potential side effects of taking the COVID-19 vaccines. In fact, research has found that the risk of developing myocarditis, an inflammation of the heart muscle that has been linked with the COVID-19 vaccine in rare cases, is significantly higher in the aftermath of a COVID-19 infection than after getting the vaccine. (One analysis published in the journal Circulation showed that people infected with COVID-19 who hadn’t been vaccinated were 11 times more at risk for developing myocarditis within 28 days of testing positive for the virus — and the risk was cut in half if a person was infected after receiving at least one dose of a COVID-19 vaccine.)

However, Ammon points out that the vaccine development process “may have felt rushed for some people,” noting that the vaccine rollout was “a bit bumpy.” She adds, “That made people not only question the reliability of government officials and government agencies, but also question if they could truly trust science.”

Making matters worse is that people have been bombarded with COVID vaccine misinformation — and that can influence thinking, Dr. Amesh Adalja, an infectious disease expert and a senior scholar at the Johns Hopkins Center for Health Security, tells Yahoo Life.

“People have an irrational bias against these vaccines and have swallowed so much misinformation that they pounce on events like this to attack the vaccine,” he says. Russo agrees. “If you see something enough, you start to believe it after a while,” he says.

Misinformation linking COVID vaccines and sudden death is rampant online, and experts say it’s harmful.

This type of misinformation turns people away from an incalculably valuable tool in the fight against COVID.

Adalja says. 

Russo explains that “COVID is a lethal disease and our best protection against COVID is vaccination,” adding: “It protects you and indirectly protects others that may be more vulnerable.” Misinformation can ultimately lower the number of people who get the vaccine and thereby increase deaths, Russo says. 

If you have questions about COVID vaccines, Russo recommends talking to your primary care physician, who should be able to answer them.

[20] O Timothy, keep that which is committed to thy trust, avoiding profane and vain babblings, and oppositions of science falsely so called: [21] Which some professing have erred concerning the faith. Grace be with thee. Amen.

1 Timothy 6:20-21

The narrative is starting to unfold and the media will increasingly be forced to do more and more damage control this year. It has become too obvious that the Covid “vaccines” are just people like flies, so now the media needs to quell the masses’ fears. But that really only makes it worse in some ways, thus triggering more suspicion in those that may be wavering.


[7] Who goeth a warfare any time at his own charges? who planteth a vineyard, and eateth not of the fruit thereof? or who feedeth a flock, and eateth not of the milk of the flock? [8] Say I these things as a man? or saith not the law the same also? [9] For it is written in the law of Moses, Thou shalt not muzzle the mouth of the ox that treadeth out the corn. Doth God take care for oxen? [10] Or saith he it altogether for our sakes? For our sakes, no doubt, this is written: that he that ploweth should plow in hope; and that he that thresheth in hope should be partaker of his hope. (1 Corinthians 9:7-10).

  • You can try to hide it all you want, but the truth prevails!
    For these devils to try to hide the truth, it’s like trying to hide a big pipe spraying tons of water by sitting on it, it’s so futile it’s funny!

  • The truth in plain sight about Yahoo:

    We know exactly how old yahoo is because its debut in print also marked its entrance into the English language as a whole. Yahoo began life as a made-up word invented by Jonathan Swift in his book Gulliver’s Travels, which was published in 1726. On his fourth and final voyage of the book, Lemuel Gulliver is marooned on an island that is the home of the Houyhnhnms, a species of intelligent, civilized horses who share their land with and rule over the Yahoos, a species of brutes with the form and vices of humans. These Yahoos represented Swift’s view of humankind at its lowest. It is not surprising, then, that yahoo came to be applied to any actual human who was particularly unpleasant or unintelligent

    Why would anyone listen to a corporation that means “unintelligent?”

  • I’m really starting to run out of places to shop, do business with or use services. Just about everyone of these devils, either defend the lies of the death shot, champion sodomy or both.
