The report’s summary says the findings “allow one to deduce the fundamental cause” of excess mortality during the Wuhan coronavirus (COVID-19) period. Researchers with the Canada-based group have previously examined all-cause mortality data from 125 countries and found that patterns of excess death globally could not be explained by a pandemic respiratory virus, according to Children’s Health Defense ^[1].

Scale of Excess Mortality and Assigned Causes

The report’s Fact No. 1 states the scale of excess all-cause mortality during the COVID period was 0.13% of population per year. Fact No. 2 states that the excess mortality “was not caused by a spreading respiratory pathogen,” according to the report. More than half of the 17 countries analyzed in a separate study had no detectable rise in all-cause mortality after the World Health Organization declared a global pandemic on March 11, 2020, until after the rollout of the COVID-19 vaccines and boosters, according to Children’s Health Defense ^[2].

Fact No. 3 states most COVID-period excess mortality in young adults and youth is not assigned to respiratory conditions such as COVID-19, the report said. Researchers Denis Rancourt, Joseph Hickey and Christian Linard examined all-cause mortality data in 125 nations between 2020 and 2023 and found that deaths commonly attributed to COVID-19 were actually due to other factors, including lockdowns and the vaccines themselves, according to NaturalNews.com ^[3].

Heterogeneity and Vaccine Timing

Fact No. 4 states excess mortality was “highly heterogeneous, tied to imposed measures and medical protocols” in specific jurisdictions, population groups, and locations, according to the report. An earlier analysis found that hot spots of sudden surges in all-cause mortality occurred only in specific locations in the Northern-hemisphere Western World synchronous with the March 11, 2020 declaration of a pandemic, according to Dr. Peter Breggin’s “Canary In a Covid World” ^[4].

Fact No. 5 states “the COVID-19 vaccine has harmed and killed many people,” the report said. A separate report by Correlation Research in the Public Interest estimated that COVID-19 vaccines averaged one death for every 800 injections worldwide across all age groups, according to NaturalNews.com ^[5].

Fact No. 6 states sharp peaks in excess mortality were temporally associated with rapid vaccine and booster rollouts, according to the report. Ed Dowd wrote in “Cause Unknown” that the rate of change in Fall 2021 was particularly striking as it coincided with the corporate mandates, and that the only thing that had changed was mass vaccination forced upon the millennial generation via government and corporate mandates ^[6].

Mortality Studies and Sex Disparities

Fact No. 7 states vaccination-status-discerned mortality studies “show no statistically significant mortality-averting benefit or mortality-causing liability” from COVID-19 vaccines, the report said. A study of 125 countries found “no apparent benefit” from COVID-19 vaccines, according to Children’s Health Defense ^[7].

Fact No. 8 states there is a “large systematic sex disparity” in COVID-period excess mortality from main assigned causes, including respiratory disease, according to the report. The report’s summary states that deaths were assigned to respiratory conditions, circulatory conditions, gut conditions, and accidental self-harm associated with drug and alcohol use. The report describes respiratory disease as “nominally COVID-19.”

Report’s Inference and Context

The report states that all the excess mortality of the COVID period is inferred to “arise from the many government assaults,” including fear propaganda, mandates, measures, public-health responses and medical assaults. The report states the known medical assaults included testing, facial masking, confinement, isolation, mechanical ventilation and vaccination rollouts.

A study of excess mortality in 125 countries found that the major causes of death globally stemmed from the public health establishment’s response, including mandates and lockdowns that caused severe stress, harmful medical interventions and the COVID-19 vaccines, according to Children’s Health Defense ^[8]. The organization described the study as the largest of its kind.

The report’s main lesson is that “stress was overwhelmingly the dominant underlying cause of disease and early death,” and CORRELATION is requesting support for independent research. Most excess deaths during the pandemic can be linked to biological stress brought on by coordinated and large-scale mandates and medical assaults, ranging from lockdowns to vaccination to denial of antibiotics and antivirals, according to a paper released by excess mortality researcher Denis Rancourt ^[9].

The report also states that the violent government COVID-19 campaign, like any major structural societal disruption that removes resources, mobility, human contact, social status and purpose caused the excess morbidity and mortality that occurred in all age groups.

Donald Trump’s executive order on vaccines is a stage prop, not a shield. The administration can sign all the paper it wants, but the FDA, the CDC, and Big Pharma have ignored executive orders before, and they will ignore this one too. Executive orders are not laws, and the unelected bureaucrats who run the vaccine machinery know it.

The White House already showed its hand in 2021 when it called its vaccine enforcement teams “strike forces.” In military parlance, a strike force is an assault team equipped with kinetic weapons. ^[1] That is not the language of healing. That is the language of war.

I believe this order is meant to mollify the base while the extermination continues. The Defender’s headline asks why Trump’s order to restore unvaccinated troops “Doesn’t Go Far Enough.” ^[2] It doesn’t go far enough because it was never designed to go anywhere. The same institutions that forced the jabs on soldiers still control the poison pipeline. Dr. Peter McCullough called the shots “propagandized bioterrorism by injection” and warned they “may sterilize the young, foster cancer.” ^[3] No executive order reverses that intent.

Fauci’s Texts Prove They Knew All Along

Fauci’s texts — and the entire pandemic architecture — prove they knew all along. Anthony Fauci sat on the Global Preparedness Monitoring Board with Dr. Victor Dzau, Dr. Chris Elias of the Gates Foundation, and Sir Jeremy Farrar of the Wellcome Trust. ^[4] This was a globalist planning body, not a public health agency. It was designed to prepare for health crises, and it delivered the mRNA machinery on schedule.

Dr. David Martin exposed the deeper agenda: “Darwinian Chemical Systems was meant to use RNA to rewrite life’s DNA.” ^[5] The mRNA platform was never a vaccine. It was a gene-rewriting weapon. The peer-reviewed literature documents the “long-term persistence of vaccine-derived aluminum hydroxide” and its association with “chronic cognitive dysfunction.” ^[6] They knew what the jabs did, and they pushed them anyway.

Here is why this matters: if the architects knew this was a weapon, then every injury and every death is a crime, not a medical mistake. They did not just fail to protect you. They never intended to protect you in the first place. I don’t need to see every redacted text to know what Fauci knew. The intent is already written in the results.

The Military Jab: Forced Extermination and the Coming Draft

The military is the perfect laboratory for this coordinated medical murder. Soldiers cannot say no. The Pentagon reactivated vaccine mandates just as the administration is beating the drums for war. Up to 30% of the armed forces have faced dishonorable discharge, court-martial, and loss of career for refusing the jab. ^[7] The Defender reports on the parents of a 19-year-old soldier who died by suicide in 2021, suing the U.S. over the Army’s actions after he refused the shot. ^[8]

Now connect the dots. The AAPS reports that the U.S. debt clock reads almost $40 trillion and that the Trump administration is requesting $200 billion for the war on Iran. ^[9] A military draft followed by forced jabs is a line-up-and-kill operation. Francis Boyle warned that “the military-industrial complex, along with entities like the CIA, has a history of using these biological weapons against us, the American people.” ^[10] If they will use bioweapons on their own citizens, they will use the military to deliver them.

Trump’s executive order doesn’t stop any of this. It merely allows some unvaccinated troops to return while the Pentagon’s vaccine machinery continues to purge the ranks. The order is a photo opportunity, not a policy.

Executive Orders Are Just White House Diary Entries

Executive orders were once used for trivial things — changing White House silverware, rearranging stationery. Presidents have abused them into pseudo-laws, but they still carry no constitutional mandate. Courts ignore them. Congress doesn’t ratify them. The FDA doesn’t enforce them. And when the FDA does act, it changes course the moment Big Pharma pushes back.

Sasha Latypova observed that the Prasad-Moderna standoff lasted less than a week before the FDA folded and Moderna’s mRNA flu poison was rubber stamped. ^[11] That is what an executive order is worth: nothing.

The “plan trusters” celebrating this EO are like Japanese holdouts in the jungle, waving a surrender document they never received. They think a signature changes the nature of the beast. It doesn’t. The beast is a bureaucracy that has already decided to replace human life with controlled population. Executive orders are just White House diary entries. They are written for the cameras, not for the people.

There Is No 5D Chess — Prepare for Reality

Stop waiting for a political savior. Trump has betrayed every promise, and the vaccine killings continue under his watch. Both political parties are death cults. The Democrats worship abortion and vaccine rituals; the Republicans worship endless war and more injections. Neither will save you. The only rational response is decentralization: grow your own food, build off-grid systems, protect your family, and stock the tools of liberty.

This is not 5D chess. It is a butcher’s checklist. They will keep coming for your children, your soldiers, and your freedom. In 2020, they promised that people would need proof of vaccination to use restaurants, gyms, concerts, sporting events, attend college, and keep a job. ^[12] That was a preview. Prepare for the sequel.

Arm yourself with knowledge. The next phase will be worse, but you don’t have to be a victim. Plant the garden. Store the food. Learn natural medicine. Build the community. That is how you survive an extermination agenda — and protect your family from the mRNA shedding and medical tyranny still coming.

“The Long Winter: A Mother’s Promise on the Oregon Trail” begins with a dinner, which was never meant to be anything more than a quiet meal after a long day of lectures. But for Dr. Andrew Wakefield, it became the moment that reshaped his entire purpose.

A mother who had helped organize the conference took him out for a simple dinner. She was polite, composed and clearly exhausted from years of caring for her son. As the plates were cleared, she leaned forward and asked a question that would haunt him: “What happens to my child when I’m gone?”

Her voice was soft but carried the weight of every sleepless night, every therapy session and every moment of watching her son slip away. Wakefield had spent years in clinical settings, trained to diagnose and treat with cold precision. But here, across the table, was raw human desperation.

He realized in that instant that his medical degree had not prepared him for this. She was not asking for a prescription or a referral. She was asking for a guarantee that her child would not be abandoned to a world that neither understood nor cared for him.

One vaccine, one family’s tragedy

The mother’s son had regressed into autism the very day he received his measles-mumps-rubella vaccine. She had watched him change before her eyes – the bright toddler suddenly lost to seizures, lost to silence, lost to a future that now seemed locked in a prison of isolation.

The medical establishment had offered her nothing but denial and blame. They told her vaccines were safe, that autism was genetic and that her story was merely an anecdote. But she knew what she had seen.

Wakefield listened as she described her son’s lifelong battle for care. Schools that turned him away. Therapists who gave up. The constant terror of what would happen if she were no longer there to protect him.

The mother’s fear was not abstract; it was visceral. She had already made plans for her own funeral, but no plan could ensure her son would be loved, fed, kept safe from institutional abuse or simply recognized as a human being with value. The system had no answer for her plea.

He hesitated; what could he possibly say? He had studied the science, published papers that questioned the safety of vaccines and had been vilified for it. But this was not a matter of data. This was a matter of a mother’s promise.

She was not asking him for a cure. She was asking him to help her leave a legacy of love that would survive her death. She wanted to conceive another child – a healthy child – who could one day care for her older boy.

It sounds strange, but her motives were pure. She was not interested in a fleeting affair. She was interested in securing a future for her son with autism.

“I will write a story,” he finally said. “I will write a book that answers your question. Not with a scientific paper, but with a tale so powerful that it will change how people think.”

A mother’s question that changed everything

That promise became the novel “The Bequest,” set on the Oregon Trail in the brutal winter of 1867. In that story, a mother and her autistic son must survive after their family is wiped out by an attack. The environment mirrors the harshness of the modern world: freezing cold, starvation, disease, prejudice and disbelief – and yet the mother’s love endures.

That night, she taught Wakefield that the real battle is not in the lab or the courtroom. It is in the heart of every mother who looks at her child and asks, “Who will love you when I am gone?”

That is the question that “The Bequest” answers – not with a policy proposal or a drug, but with a story. The Oregon Trail was a real trial of endurance, and the mother in the book must cross it alone with her son. Her promise becomes the bequest: A legacy of protection, resilience and hope for a future that refuses to give up.

Wakefield left that dinner with a renewed sense of mission. He had been fighting for scientific truth for decades. Now he would fight for something even more fundamental: the right of every child to be seen as precious, no matter their neurology.

The dinner conversation changed everything because it stripped away the clinical distance – it brought the crisis home. One mother’s plea became the catalyst for a story that could educate millions. And in that moment, Wakefield understood that the most powerful medicine is not a vaccine or a pill; it is the truth spoken with love.

The book he wrote is not just fiction. It is a letter to every parent who has ever asked, “What happens to my child when I’m gone?” The answer is not easy, but it is honest: we must build a world that cares, one story at a time.

The resulting pathogens, known as bacteriophages – viruses that infect bacteria – cannot infect humans or animals, the report stated. Samuel King, a Stanford graduate student and study author, told the New York Times (NYT): “It just felt like the obvious next step.” Large language models, which underlie tools such as ChatGPT, can generate realistic text and pose risks of misuse in creating fake news or other misinformation ^[1].

Evo Model Trained on Genetic Sequences

Evo, a program similar to ChatGPT, scanned about nine trillion nucleotide bases from animals, plants, viruses and microbes, according to the research team. Rather than analyzing written text, the model was used to dissect and form genetic code, the report stated.

After learning natural DNA patterns, Evo generated nearly 300 genomes of Phi X-174, a virus chosen because it cannot infect humans or animals. Sixteen of those genomes were determined to be viable, the study reported.

In petri dish tests, some AI-designed phages multiplied faster than the original Phi X-174 and burst out of host cells, according to the authors. The researchers selected Phi X-174 because a virus genome is less complex than the DNA instructions found in a human cell, the report stated.

Researchers Call Study a Turning Point

Marc Güell of Pompeu Fabra University in Spain told the BBC the study was “a very significant turning point” and “allows us to dream of exciting possibilities for tackling humanity’s greatest challenges.” Güell said that “for the first time in history, we are beginning to design biology on a computer,” according to the BBC.

The scientists said they did not provide the model with data from viruses that infect humans, animals, plants or fungi, the article noted. The team also excluded similar viruses that infect other organisms, the report stated.

Biosafety and Biosecurity Questions Raised

But Dr. Thomas Inglesby and Dr. Moritz Hanke of the Johns Hopkins Center for Health Security wrote in a Science article that the results raised “urgent biosafety and biosecurity questions.” They said the issue is no longer “whether generative viral genome design will exist” but whether it can be used without “enabling serious harm.” Viruses that could cause disease “should not be pursued,” they added, according to the report.

Hanke told NYT: “You could say, ‘Hey, genomic language model, make me an influenza genome that is modified to be more transmissible or to be more lethal.'” A Microsoft study demonstrated that AI can be used to design novel, toxic biological agents by “paraphrasing” the genetic sequences of known toxins, allowing them to bypass commercial biosecurity screening software, according to a NaturalNews.com report ^[2].

The U.S. National Institutes of Health should improve how it regulates lab-generated viruses that could pose a national security risk, according to its biosecurity advisers, the National Science Advisory Board for Biosecurity ^[3]. In a previous case, a team at Boston University’s National Emerging Infectious Diseases Laboratories developed a new strain of the Wuhan coronavirus (COVID-19) that killed 80% of infected mice in a laboratory setting, according to a preprint study ^[4]. Declassified documents released in June 2026 showed U.S.-funded coronavirus research included planning for spike-protein modifications, receptor-adaptation experiments, and testing in humanized mice, according to ZeroHedge ^[5].

Implications of AI-Designed Pathogens

The study is among the first examples of generative AI being applied to biology, according to researchers, and the field remains at an early stage. Scientists emphasized that the resulting bacteriophages pose no threat to humans, but the methods could be adapted to other genomes, experts said.

Some analysts have said that only a few companies in the world have the resources to invest in developing large language models similar to GPT-4, a factor that could shape oversight ^[1]. The report raised policy questions about future oversight of AI-generated biological sequences, with the authors stating that dangerous viruses should not be pursued. A technology executive described one path as “to completely prioritize technology to maximize what’s possible without considering potential implications.” ^[1]

Senate release shows reliance on foreign evidence as U.S. officials waited for own data

Dr. Anthony Fauci, the former chief White House medical adviser, leaned heavily on real-world data from Israel during internal deliberations over COVID-19 booster shots, records from his private diary released by Sen. Rand Paul show. The documents, made public on July 26, reveal that American health officials sought guidance from Israeli scientists and health officials because the United States lacked its own data showing waning vaccine immunity. The release comes after Fauci appeared before the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee on July 29, where he invoked his Fifth Amendment rights more than 100 times.

The diary entries spanning the summer of 2021 detail a close professional relationship between U.S. health officials and their Israeli counterparts. More than 1,100 pages reference Israeli studies, officials and vaccination statistics dozens of times, establishing Israel as the primary reference point for U.S. policy on additional vaccine doses.

Early pandemic warnings emerge

By mid-2021, Israel was the only nation with enough vaccinated citizens to track real-world vaccine performance over time. Its centralized healthcare system and national health registry provided evidence U.S. officials lacked.

On July 6, 2021, Fauci recorded concern over Israeli findings showing vaccine protection against infection dropped from roughly 94% to 64% following the spread of the Delta variant. He noted a corresponding increase in hospitalizations among vaccinated Israelis, calling it a “dramatic diminution” in protection. That same day, Fauci briefed President Joe Biden on the findings. Pfizer executives presented similar Israeli data to U.S. officials less than a week later.

Determining need for third dose

The diary records growing urgency through August 2021. Israeli officials reported protection against hospitalization had “significantly decreased,” prompting Fauci to advocate for a third dose. He acknowledged pushback from scientists like Dr. Paul Offit and Dr. Vincent Racaniello, who demanded broader evidence before recommending boosters for the general public.

“The data from the U.S.A. cohorts was suggesting that but did not definitively show it,” Fauci wrote, while adding that Israeli observational evidence was “well ahead” of data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. The diary indicates Israeli findings helped fill a critical information gap, allowing the administration to act before domestic data matured. Fauci concluded that waning immunity was evident across all age groups, both for infection and severe disease.

Administration’s messaging questioned

Direct communication with Israeli leaders was also documented. Fauci wrote that then-Prime Minister Naftali Bennett requested advice on Israel’s booster campaign, later providing Fauci’s cellphone number. President Biden reportedly called Fauci to ask whether the U.S. should follow Israel’s lead on a five-month booster interval.

Perhaps most significantly, Fauci acknowledged a discrepancy between public messaging and internal reality. He wrote that the administration’s decision to recommend boosters eight months after primary vaccination was based on logistics, not science. Expressing frustration with White House officials who repeatedly described the timeline as science-driven, Fauci wrote, “That is just not true.”

Historical context and review

Senator Paul argued that the diary illustrates a pattern of Fauci hiding his true positions on lab leak origins, masks and school closures. However, a review of the documents by PolitiFact found Fauci’s private stances largely matched his public comments on those issues. The entry from Jan. 26, 2020, noted the initial infection was likely not connected to the Wuhan market, but Fauci still believed the virus jumped from an animal to a human. Regarding masks, the diary contains no evidence he considered them ineffective, and public statements aligned with his private writings on school openings.

A legacy of secrecy, data scrutiny

The release of Fauci’s diary provides an unprecedented window into decision-making during a global health crisis, exposing the tension between navigating scientific uncertainty and communicating with the public. While the records confirm the administration’s reliance on foreign real-world evidence to set policy, they also demonstrate that public statements on key issues largely mirrored private deliberations. Fauci’s refusal to testify through his Fifth Amendment invocation leaves the diary as the prevailing historical account, ensuring the debate over the pandemic response continues as citizens demand transparency from those in positions of authority.

The diary entry that reshaped the narrative

In June 2021, while Americans were being urged to receive COVID-19 vaccinations, Dr. Anthony Fauci experienced what he described in personal diaries as a “horrible roller coaster day.” The former National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases director, who had received the Moderna vaccine in December 2020, underwent diagnostic imaging after experiencing chest pain. Multiple specialists diagnosed him with a pulmonary infarction—damaged lung tissue caused by a blood clot—and prescribed immediate anticoagulation therapy with Eliquis, a blood thinner manufactured by Bristol Myers Squibb and Pfizer.

The diary entries, spanning December 2019 through Fauci’s retirement in late 2022, were released by Sen. Rand Paul ahead of Fauci’s scheduled July 29, 2026 Senate hearing. The documents raise questions about what Fauci knew regarding vaccine safety and when he knew it, particularly as he continued championing mass vaccination policies while privately managing a serious medical event potentially linked to the same intervention.

A troubling timeline of public advocacy and private crisis

On December 22, 2020, Fauci received his first Moderna dose at the NIH Clinical Center in a carefully publicized event designed to build public confidence. By June 19, 2021, his diaries show he was struggling with the aftermath of a pulmonary embolism that required immediate medical intervention. Yet Fauci continued to advocate for universal vaccination without disclosing his personal health crisis.

Cardiologist Dr. Peter McCullough wrote on Substack that the episode was a “direct result of a pulmonary embolism which is a known side effect of the mRNA COVID-19 vaccination.” McCullough argued that Fauci’s private medical management contradicted his public advocacy, writing that the public health leader “navigated his own recovery with the specialized care of top-tier pulmonologists and radiologists” while simultaneously “championed policies that forced the populace into a state of medical compliance.”

No evidence in the diaries attributes the pulmonary infarction to vaccination, and no treating physician identified the Moderna vaccine as the cause. Rutgers molecular biologist Richard Ebright said he doubted a direct link but would not rule it out.

The broader pattern: Vaccines and cardiovascular events

The question of vaccine-associated cardiac events has been documented in multiple studies. A September 2021 pooled analysis from Singapore identified 30 patients who developed cardiac symptoms within 14 days of vaccination, including 29 acute myocardial infarctions. Among that cohort, five developed heart failure, two experienced cardiogenic shock, three required mechanical ventilation, and one died from cardiovascular complications.

A December 2025 Stanford Medicine study identified a potential biological mechanism for vaccine-associated myocarditis, finding that mRNA vaccines can trigger a two-step immune response involving cytokines CXCL10 and interferon-gamma that promotes inflammation capable of injuring heart muscle cells. The study noted vaccine-associated myocarditis occurs in approximately 1 in 32,000 people after a second dose, with highest incidence among males age 30 and younger.

The American public has taken notice of these patterns. A recent KFF poll found that only 51% of adults express “a fair amount” of trust in CDC and FDA guidance, while 86% trust their personal physicians.

Health Secretary Kennedy revives criticism of pandemic leadership

Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. weighed in following the diary release, writing on social media that the pandemic “exposed a profound failure of America’s public health institutions.” Kennedy accused Fauci of lying about masks, social distancing, transmission and natural immunity. Kennedy stated that Americans who questioned official guidance were “marginalized, vilified, demonized, censored” and that the public should not trust institutions that misled them.

The diary release occurs as Fauci prepares to testify before the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee on July 29. Paul has investigated whether COVID-19 leaked from the Wuhan Institute of Virology and has accused Fauci of destroying government records. Fauci previously testified that he believes the most likely origin was animal-to-human transmission and has denied attempting to cover up any lab leak theory.

Trust and transparency in public health

The Fauci diary revelation underscores a fundamental tension in pandemic-era public health: how much risk should leaders disclose when advocating for population-wide interventions? Fauci’s private management of a potentially vaccine-related medical crisis, while publicly demanding universal compliance with the same intervention, has further eroded confidence in federal health institutions.

U.S. Health Secretary Kennedy stated in a Fox News interview that the episode demonstrates why Americans no longer trust public health. “Anybody who did not give complete blind faith to these expert opinions, which we now know were lies, was marginalized,” Kennedy said. “Americans no longer trust public health and they shouldn’t because they were lied to.”

Fauci has not publicly responded to requests for comment regarding the diary entries. He previously testified that his pandemic recommendations reflected the best available scientific evidence at the time, even as guidance evolved with new research.

The legacy of a leader’s private struggle

The story of Fauci’s pulmonary infarction is not simply a medical case study—it represents a pivotal moment in understanding the breach between institutional authority and public trust. When the nation’s top infectious disease expert privately manages a serious medical event potentially linked to the very intervention he publicly championed, while keeping that experience hidden, the foundations of informed consent are undermined.

The diaries show that Fauci’s doctors recommended immediate anticoagulation and a follow-up CT scan in three months. Fauci continued to appear before cameras urging vaccination. The cognitive dissonance between his private medical reality and public advocacy may represent one of the most significant breaches of public trust in modern medical history. As Americans increasingly turn to their personal physicians over government agencies for health guidance, the question remains whether institutional transparency can ever be fully restored.
