‘Emergency no longer exists’: Doctors call for Covid vaccines to be pulled to reassess safety

A petition calling for Covid vaccines to be pulled has attracted high-profile backers — including one of Donald Trump’s key appointments.

A petition calling for the “immediate suspension” of mRNA Covid vaccines has attracted a number of high-profile backers — including the man picked by US President-elect Donald Trump to lead the country’s main public health research agency.

The Hope Accord, an online petition launched earlier this year, states that a “growing body of evidence suggests the widespread rollout of the novel Covid-19 mRNA vaccine products is contributing to an alarming rise in disability and excess deaths”. ...

“This new technology was granted emergency use authorisation to address a situation that no longer exists,” the petition states.

“Going forward, the burden of proof falls on those still advocating for these products to compellingly demonstrate that they aren’t resulting in net harm. Until such evidence is presented, regulators should suspend their use as a matter of standard medical precaution.”

The petition was co-created by Dr Joseph Fraiman, a Louisiana-based ER physician and medical researcher.

Dr Fraiman was the lead author of a study last year that reanalysed Pfizer and Moderna’s original randomised trials, concluding that the rate of serious harm from the vaccines was one in 800, far higher than previously suggested.

Dr Jay Bhattacharya, a vocal critic of Covid lockdowns who has been picked by Mr Trump to run the National Institutes of Health (NIH), called Dr Fraiman’s study “probably the most important paper during the pandemic” about Covid vaccines.
