Fauci Was Worried About COVID Jab Causing Miscarriages, and Data Suggests It Might Have

It is WAAAAYYYY too early to say how many revelations may come from the forensic analysis of Dr. Anthony Fauci's iPhone that was just turned over to the Senate, but already one bombshell has been released from an early analysis of the contents.

Assume it is the tip of the iceberg.

Shortly after the vaccine was released to the general public, reports of people suffering from "cytokine storms" as a reaction to the jab. This is unsurprising, given the fact that the patient's cells are turned into spike protein factories and there is no standard "dose" being administered, as happens in a normal vaccine. Your body decides how much spike protein to make, and for some people the factory produces unusually high quantities of it. 

That's why former CDC Director Robert Redfield says he won't give the jab to his own patients. 

Cytokine storms are dangerous in and of themselves and can cause high fevers, and Fauci worried that if given in the first trimester, spontaneous abortions could result. 

FAUCI: “I asked around a bit more and another issue came up that you need to be aware of. Since many people have significant cytokines storm and fever after the 2nd dose, this theoretically could be associated with miscarriage in the 1st trimester

Walensky: “Definitely a good point, esp after dose two.”

Murthy: “This is really helpful, thanks… That’s a really good point re the cytokine storm post second dose.

Safety was not adequately tested in pregnant women in the initial tests, and obviously the public health officials decided to do what amounts to a "natural experiment:" putting the vaccine out into the wild and seeing what happened. And, depending on how one interpreted the data, you could argue that no serious safety signals were detected, or, as one doctor argued, a big, whopping safety signal was identified, and they buried the evidence

After the first drop of Fauci texts, we already have him admitting to concerns of COVID vaccine side effects while attempting to mandate them to the public.

He said the second dose “theoretically could be associated with miscarriage in the 1st trimester.”

Why are we just learning this?

First, this is how Fauci, Rochelle Walensky, and other public health officials presented their recommendations in public, as outlined by a press release from Senator Ron Johnson:

Below are public statements made by federal health officials regarding their recommendations to pregnant women and a rebuttal by Dr. James Thorp OB/GYN to a Shimabukuro et al paper published in the New England Journal of Medicine.

Feb. 3, 2021NIAID Director Dr. Anthony Fauci: “[FDA] have found thus far and we have to be careful but thus far no red flags about that, about pregnant women.”

Aug. 11, 2021 – CDC’s Sascha Ellington“We are not seeing a signal of safety concerns of the vaccine in pregnancy … This vaccine can prevent Covid-19, and so that’s the primary benefit.”

Aug. 30, 2021 – NIAID Director Dr. Anthony Fauci: “Well, are the vaccines safe?” … “10s and 10s and 10s of thousands of women who have been followed by the CDC, who have been vaccinated when they were pregnant, there’s no indication whatsoever that there’s any increase of any adverse issues in a pregnant woman who was vaccinated compared to a pregnant woman who wasn’t vaccinated … it’s pretty clear that pregnant women should get vaccinated.”

Sept. 29, 2021 – CDC Director Rochelle Walensky: “CDC strongly recommends COVID-19 vaccination either before or during pregnancy because the benefits of vaccination outweigh known or potential risks,” the agency said in a health alert … Walensky told a White House COVID-19 briefing that studies show COVID-19 vaccines are safe for pregnant women.  

Feb. 1, 2022 – Surgeon General Dr. Vivek Murthy: “It’s all the more important for you to get vaccinated if you are pregnant or if you are trying to become pregnant … The data points show that the vaccines are safe during these various stages before and during pregnancy … They found generally that anytime during your pregnancy is actually fine [to get the vaccine], and that’s why the recommendation is just to get it.”

It's all sweetness and light, as you can recall. "Get those shots, or we will all die horrible deaths," or something quite close to it. 

But not everybody was quite so sanguine. Remember, Fauci specifically referred to the dangers in the first trimester, but it turns out that the geniuses in public health mashed data from all stages of pregnancy to smooth things out. 

Jan. 12, 2022 – Dr. James A Thorp, OB/GYN and maternal-fetal medicine specialist published an open letter to the American Board of Obstetrics and Gynecology with the following critique of the Shimabukuro et al June 17, 2021 paper published in the New England Journal of Medicine. He argued that because 700 of the 827 pregnant women in the study received their COVID-19 injection in the third trimester (after 28 weeks), those 700 should be excluded from the denominator used to calculate a 12.6% (104/827) spontaneous abortion rate (defined as occurring before 20 weeks). The actual spontaneous abortion rate would then be 82% (104/127).

See what they did there? Almost everybody in the "study" they did was in the last three months of the pregnancy, when spontaneous abortions were rare. If you exclude that cohort, spontaneous abortions were far more common than you would expect. 

More than 80 percent, in fact.

That's a WORLD of difference, and rather than taking that obvious safety signal and, at the very least, revising recommendations, these ghouls decided that consistent public messaging and covering their own rear ends was the most important goal. 

Tar. Feathers. Or worse. 

Electric chair, anyone?
