‘I Had to Stand up and Try to Do Something:’ Professor of Medicine on Suing School Over Vaccine Mandate

BY JAN JEKIELEK AND ZACHARY STIEBER October 28, 2021

Dr. Aaron Kheriaty reacted to the COVID-19 pandemic like many other medical experts. He worked long hours as the United States tried to grapple with the new disease. He had too many conversations with family members whose loved ones were dying from it.

But as time wore on, he started noticing a pattern in public health decisions that seemed to diverge from traditional medical ethics, including an insistence that people at little risk from COVID-19 get a vaccine.

Kheriaty is now on suspension from the University of California, Irvine, (UCI) and challenging the school’s COVID-19 vaccine mandate in court.

“I had to stand up and try to do something about it,” the professor of psychiatry and director of the UCI Health’s Medical Ethics Program said on The Epoch Times’ “American Thought Leaders.”

"I knew that I would wake up in the morning & not have a clear conscience."

UCI spokespeople declined to comment for this story.

‘Liberating’

Kheriaty contracted COVID-19, the disease caused by the CCP (Chinese Communist Party) virus, in mid-2020. His infection was confirmed by two different tests from two independent labs. His five children and wife also contracted the disease. They all recovered, with none requiring hospital care.

“It was, for me, actually a very liberating experience afterward, because I didn’t have to worry about the illness anymore. I knew the science on natural immunity,” Kheriaty said.

Natural immunity refers to when people contract COVID-19 and recover. Dozens of studies have documented that these individuals enjoy strong immunity against CCP virus re-infection. Some of the studies suggest the immunity is superior to that provided by COVID-19 vaccines, particularly the Johnson & Johnson one.

“I knew that at that point, I was among the safest people to be around, I didn’t have to worry about transmitting the infection to my patients,” Kheriaty said.

He continued taking precautions, wearing personal protective equipment like masks as required at the hospital. But he was confident he didn’t pose a risk to others, which served as a relief.

That relief turned into disbelief when, around a year later, the University of California system, which includes UCI, imposed a COVID-19 vaccine mandate.

Opt-Out is Temporary

The mandate (pdf) included a natural immunity opt-out, but only temporarily. People who recovered from COVID-19 were told they would only be exempt from the mandate for up to 90 days after their diagnosis.

University officials cited the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), which alleges that the antibody tests it has authorized “are not validated to evaluate specific immunity or protection from SARS-CoV-2 infection.”

SARS-CoV-2 is another name for the CCP virus.

“For this reason, individuals who have been diagnosed with COVID-19 or had an antibody test are not permanently exempt from vaccination,” officials said.

The mandate violated rights outlined in the U.S. Constitution’s Fourteenth Amendment, including equal protection and substantive due process, Kheriaty’s lawsuit asserts.

“Plaintiff is naturally immune to SARS-CoV-2. Therefore, plaintiff is at least as equally situated as those who are fully vaccinated with a COVID-19 vaccine, yet defendants deny plaintiff equal treatment and seek to burden Plaintiff with an unnecessary violation of bodily integrity to which plaintiff does not consent in order to be allowed to continue to work at UCI,” it states.

The situation creates two classes, vaccinated and unvaccinated, when a more reasonable division would be those who are immune and those who are not, Kheriaty believes.

“What kind of discriminatory policies do we have in place that are excluding someone like me from the workplace when I’m 99.8 percent protected against reinfection whereas someone who got the Johnson & Johnson vaccine, by the company’s own data that they submitted to the FDA, is 67 percent protective against COVID infection?” he said.

Whose Burden?

Kheriaty initially planned to get a COVID-19 vaccine. Now he’s working to change the narrative around mandates. ...

Most mandates across the country don’t have alternatives for people who had COVID-19 and recovered.

Kheriaty proposes putting the burden of proof on people who want to opt out.

“Just have them go get the testing on their own time. You don’t have to administer the T-cell test or the antibody test. You don’t have to go dig up their old medical record establishing that they’ve already had COVID,” he said.

“Just ask them to bring that in and sign off on that as a kind of immunity passport.”

Side Effects ...

Kheriaty worries about other research that seems to show vaccine recipients with natural immunity experience side effects at a higher frequency than those who are not immune who get a shot.

“There are now about five independent studies that strongly suggest that individuals that already have natural immunity, when you vaccinate them, the risk of vaccine adverse events or vaccine side effects is higher for that group,” the professor said. “They have higher risk of side effects from the vaccine. It’s not going to help the people around them because natural immunity already is sterilizing, [yet] we don’t yet have any COVID vaccines that offer sterilizing immunity.”

Add this to the fact that almost every doctor was promoting and recommending the vax when it wasn’t tested properly and the adverse event signal was absolutely massive. The corporate media sold the idea that the signal through VAERS wasn’t accurate (which was actually true, it was only 2% of the true adverse events totals), and doctors used that fig leaf to hide their shame of pushing the most dangerous vax in history on their patients. Oh and it didn’t work.


I'm on the side now of "doctors: fuck them". They need to be mandated to take the vaccine. Take your own medicine "doctor". These people saw first hand what was going on, didn't speak up, and let people die. I always had a shaky view on humanity, it's 100x worse now than it was 2 years ago.

My dim view is in that complete obedience and subservience of people that surround me. 20 years ago, we weren't like that.

It's the lack of ethics that disgusts me. I would expect in Silicon Valley, where critical thinking is an absolute requirement of our jobs, that more people would exercise it. I remember when companies that engaged in blatantly unethical behavior, engineers would quit and people looking for jobs would shun them. This would correct the company's behavior. That's what happened to Microsoft, and Yahoo. People wouldn't put up with discrimination of any sort either, this was ONCE a meritocracy. That's why we did so well, and why we were the undisputed king of technology at one point.

That culture is gone.

I hear you. There are a lot of people who accept the "security" of working soul sucking jobs

As a young man I worked for the DoD at a naval shipyard as a marine machinery mechanic. Part of my job was to remove, refurbish, and replace watertight doors and hatches on nuclear fast attack subs. The job was fascinating but the environment was cruel. It seemed that most people at the shipyard cared for little but getting paid.

Coffee break started after you clocked in at 7:30 and the day ended when the time clock ticked over to 4pm and we could punch out. There were always lines of people just waiting to punch their time cards at the moment the time clocks struck four.

My last straw, as I like to work, was when we were reaching the end of the fiscal year but had not used up all of our annual man-hours. Even though there was little work to do, we were forced to be there for 12 hour days, six days a week. We clocked in at 4:30am and went to the cafeteria for breakfast. We then "hid" or did make-work until 5pm. We did get a half hour lunch. HUGE check from all the overtime, but it was soul crushing.

I eventually resigned and went back to college to study math and computer science.

I think that most people do want to do the right thing but don't know what is right or are stuck in their comfort zone and don't want to speak out.

Queensland GP Dr William Bay may lose his medical licence after calling out Chief Medical Officer Paul Kelly at a Australian Medical Association conference in Sydney.

In footage uploaded to social media, Dr Bay unleashes in a tirade flagging his concerns over the Covid-19 vaccine, urging his colleagues in attendance to join his protest.

"I am here today to ask you to join with the people of Australia and stop forcing these vaccines on people who are getting killed by them," Dr Bay shouts.

Globalists and Rockefeller regard their control over the medical profession as quasi-military subject to hierarchal obedience. Doctors can be press ganged to engage in mass murder and medical/scientific fraud through medical facilities and medical means on notice by the centralized Satanists. Any conscientious objectors are summarily court marshaled, disgraced and deprived of their means of making a living. Doctors are a dunned executioner executive echelon to be deployed for political ends.

I notice Kaiser no longer sends the 'safe and effective' vaccine propaganda through email That suggests kickback from the vax victims, that they are not continuing the campaign of lies against the facts of the impairments.

Dr. William Bay apologises for not speaking out sooner.

He was afraid of losing his livelihood if he spoke out sooner than he did re the mRNA vaccines.

It should have been sooner.

That would have been the more ‘ethical’ thing to do.

https://www.lifesitenews.com/news/canadian-doctor-hospitals-should-apologize-to-everyone-fired-over-unscientific-jab-mandates/


In a series of passionate tweets, Ontario-based doctor Matt Strauss called on hospital CEOs to “pick up the phone and call everyone you fired over unethical, ineffective, unscientific vaccine mandates” as a way of combating the major staffing shortages hospitals are facing in the province.

“I spent the holiday weekend working in an Ontario ICU. It was completely full and there was ZERO Covid. The staffing problem is very real. Poor morale and high workloads form a vicious circle. Here’s how I would fix it if I were a hospital CEO,” opened Strauss in a social media post on Wednesday. ...

1/ Apologize. Pick up the phone and call everyone you fired over unethical, ineffective, unscientific vaccine mandates. Ask them to come back. Then apologize to everyone who is still at work but felt coerced.

2/ End the mask mandates. It’s been 2.5 years that HCW haven’t seen each other smile or had a non-muffled conversation. This takes a psychological toll. Hard to measure, but it’s real.

3/ End the punitive, mean-spirited visitor policies. Nothing burns HCWs out more than telling families they can’t see their loved ones, then getting yelled at by said families. These policies protect no one.

4/ Welcome back the volunteers, gift shop workers etc. Hospital lobbies used to be bustling places where the community met and pitched in.

5/ Stop the silly screening protocols. There is no scientific basis for treating the hospital entrance like a militarized border crossing. Everyone knows to stay home if sick. I don’t need someone to hand me a mask with salad tongs. Redeploy those workers to patient care.”

... As indicated by Strauss, while most of the COVID hysteria from the past two years has died down, Canada’s healthcare sector is still using disproven scientific rationale to hold on to many of their so-called pandemic measures.

In fact, despite COVID vaccine trials having never produced evidence that the shots stop infection or transmission, the province of British Columbia refused to allow unvaccinated medical staff back to work amid a shortage, and instead pledged $12 million to hire foreign nurses.

While hesitant to speak out at that time, (I, like so many physicians in medicine, was an employed physician for a large healthcare organization and did not feel comfortable speaking my mind.) I felt it was my moral and civic duty to give my comments and opinion in this very public forum. With the strength and support provided by Ann and my good friend, Mattie Leto, I agreed to give my testimony that THE SCIENCE failed to support the use of masks as a deterrent to the spread of viral illnesses in a community setting. There were only two randomized clinical trials [10] dealing with this topic at that time (that I was aware of) and neither showed any statistically significant benefit of masks with regard to prevention of COVID-19 [11]. I also spoke of potential harms of masking healthy, low-risk, children. It is well documented that masking can lead to developmental, learning and speech delays in young children, and anxiety and depression in older children and teens. My comments received tremendous support from the parents, students, and citizens in attendance. A very telling sign of our community’s sentiment was that only 2 people in attendance wore a mask.

During this school board meeting, I also clearly stated that if anyone could show me objective scientific data that refuted my position, I would consider said evidence and potentially change my opinion and comments. To this day no one has presented me with any data to show that masks are effective and should be used in schools. The risk of serious illness, hospitalization and death in healthy school age students is almost zero. I have never seen or heard of a documented case in this group of people. The known potential harms of masking these students, however, are quite profound. Again, tremendous downside risk comes with masking children with no benefit.

Unfortunately, those public comments got me in very hot water. Someone in our community wrote a scathing letter to our hospital CEO calling for my termination. They stated that I was impairing the community’s effort at controlling the pandemic. Keep in mind, as a physician in a medically underserved, rural community (I was and am the only fulltime physician for our county), I provide healthcare services to an area in which I have grown up and raised my family. I was actively treating patients to prevent disease and its spread, using the best available unbiased scientific evidence. And someone with no medical knowledge or experience was trying to get me fired! This was mean spirited, ignorant, hurtful and difficult for me to understand. If I were fired, there would be no one to take my place and our community would suffer. This blatant attempt at censoring my opinion and stifling the free flow of medical thought and discussion is yet another example of the widespread coercive censorship that has occurred locally, nationally, and worldwide during the pandemic.

Not long thereafter, I received a formal letter of reprimand and was instructed not to speak publicly on any medical topic without prior approval.

Ann and I continued to treat our patients aggressively with multidrug protocols achieving great success. But, in early September of 2021, I received a phone call from a local pharmacist at a chain pharmacy. He was quite apologetic but told me that “corporate” had instructed their pharmacists to no longer fill prescriptions of Ivermectin for the treatment of COVID-19. All the other big box chain pharmacies in our area had already instituted this harmful and misguided policy. This reckless act by a large corporate pharmacy put hundreds of thousands of patients’ lives at risk. There is no telling how many lives could have been saved had Ivermectin, an age-old drug with multiple studies supporting its safety and efficacy, been made readily available to physicians across this country.

Every time I go for my annual check-up, I remind the doctors how many have died from the vaccine. Last time, they wanted me to do an EKG. I was like WFT? I told them the only reason they're pushing this is because of clot shot induced myocarditis, I reminded them of how many children under the age of 10 are dying from side effects.

Haven't seen them for a couple of years. I figured the risk with them, especially when in militant vax mode, was much greater than the risk without them. They also are clearly accumulating data for the monsters in charge up the line, because they tried to get me to sign away my HIPPA rights in an updated agreement, pretty sneaky. Kaiser is definitely Globalist cuck and Rockefeller all the way.

I'll have to go back eventually. I'll probably just tell him to check the fine print in his employment contracts, because especially if he has reimbursements from promoting vaxes, they will eventually, as is the Globalist Satanic custom, lay every blame they can at providers' feet to suck up the liability and the indemnities. Kaiser deploys a very abusive management style for some years now, and they will gladly hang their doctors out to dry to deflect.

My wife already kind of gave him the business about vaccines, and she said he didn't flinch or contradict her, even though I imagine they give them courses on how to deflect vaccine skepticism and get the sheeples to submit to the death shots.

They stopped the many saturation emails promoting the vaxes as 'safe and effective' (I have archived some of them) and now just send infograms about the availability of testing and boosters for the indoctrinated worried.

PARIS—A prominent French physician has won a stunning victory against charges that he denigrated official covid policies, with the French Order of Physicians holding that he was in fact obliged to speak out.

In its ruling, the French governing body for doctors found that Christian Perronne, 67, acted in the best interest of citizens and his profession in critiquing covid treatments and vaccines on social media, in national television interviews, and in a best-selling book. ...

In an announcement of Perronne’s “complete victory,” his attorney, Thomas Benages, hailed the tribunal’s finding that doctors are entitled to debate and criticize health policies.

“By these fundamental decisions, the Disciplinary Chamber has reaffirmed the freedom of expression enjoyed by university doctors,” Benages wrote, “while highlighting the preponderant role played by Professor Perronne during the health crisis by bringing contradiction to the government and having”—as the decision stated—“‘a discordant voice on a subject of general interest.’ ”

The tribunal’s finding did not specifically endorse Perronne’s views, but rather his right to speak them.

I wouldn't know, but I bet it can be done in someway.

The biggest problem with any product is making people aware the product exists. Maybe that's something that should be worked on.

I considered making a site that ONLY advertises products. Nothing else. When I'm looking to buy something, I know what I want, I just have to decide which particular version I want.
