The findings on this paper suggest that antibody-mediated SARS-CoV-2 uptake by monocytes and macrophages triggers inflammatory cell death that aborts the production of infectious virus but causes systemic inflammation that contributes to COVID-19 pathogenesis. This is relevant when considering that the mechanism of action for COVID vaccines is the programming of the body to mass …

“This paper presents evidence that vaccination induces a profound impairment in type I interferon signaling, which has diverse adverse consequences to human health. Immune cells that have taken up the vaccine nanoparticles release into circulation large numbers of exosomes containing spike protein along with critical microRNAs that induce a signaling response in recipient cells at …

More is being discovered every day about the broad effects of the COVID mRNA vaccines. This article details immune system impacts related to the uptake of the Pfizer vaccination by healthy individuals. Specifically, this article demonstrates that the BNT162b2 vaccine modulated the production of inflammatory cytokines by innate immune cells resulting in complex functional reprogramming …

There is growing evidence that the SARS CoV 2 virus can directly manipulate mitochondrial function to evade host cell immunity and facilitate virus replication and COVID-19 disease. Manipulations of host mitochondria can release mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) in the cytoplasm and activate mtDNA-induced inflammasome and suppress innate and adaptive immunity. A decline in ACE2 function in …

Myocarditis in adolescents has been diagnosed clinically following the administration of the second dose of an mRNA vaccine for coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). This article reports on microscopic cardiac findings in adolescent deaths that occurred shortly following administration of the second Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 dose. The microscopic examination revealed features resembling a catecholamine-induced injury, not typical …
