‘Vaxx’ Volte-Face

It’s almost as incredible as the ever-more strained narrative during the latter days of the ‘Covid Era’: After touting the mRNA ‘vaxx’ as the solution, the powers-that-be are now disowning it, and an about-face is underway. Are they truly repentant, or simply trying to cover their behinds?

Well, the U.K. has refused to release data linking the mRNA jab to ‘excess deaths’, a nice, tidy euphemism that. Sometimes you have a surplus, sometimes a deficit of deaths, in one of those many vagaries of nature, I suppose.

The purported reason for withholding the data is to avoid ‘anger or distress’ amongst the relatives of those excessively dead people, as well as ‘misinformation’ about the ‘Covid vaccine’. Not that ‘anger, distress and misinformation’ are already abounding.

(Apologies for all these scare-quotes, but how does one write of these matters without them?)

For a glimpse into the actual science of the risks of the mRNA ‘vaxx’ and other vaxx-type therapies, see Dr. Robert Malone’s recent commentary on the explosive admission by Dr. Vinay Prasad’s that “there have been COVID mRNA-induced vaccine deaths of children”. Dr. Prasad is head of the FDA – the Federal Food and Drug Administration, which approved the mRNA jab to begin with. This more or less confirms what those labeled ‘conspiracy theorists’ thought four or so years ago. This improperly-tested invasive therapy was not only given to children (and adults) without proper warning, but foisted upon them, coerced beyond any proportionate measure, and with the scandalous support of the highest authorities in the Church. Ponder the notion that, according to Dr. Malone, this jab caused magnitudes more deaths amongst children than Covid ever did or could, while you meditate upon this Vatican issued coin, which has a disturbing Trinitarian motif, almost an anti-icon of Rublev’s.

Then there’s the backlash against the rest of the vaccine mandates, a quasi-ritual which has become something of a substitute religion in a society without God. Vaccination is now a veritable ‘baptism’ for every newborn into the novo cultus of health and safety. I was surprised to read that (p)re-1986, three vaccines were mandated; now it is 72 and woe betide any parent who refuses the jabs for their children. Unvaccinated children can be excluded from school and in some cases forcibly removed from the parental home and taken into care.

(72? Really? Would not the little tykes have more needle-pricks than a heroin addict? Odd also, that number, 72, and not just because it seems beyond over the top. It’s the same as the number of disciples our Lord sent forth, as well as the traditional number of authors of the Septuagint. Probably coincidence, but one does wonder).

Coercive vaccine mandates did not begin with Covid. As the author reminds us, the 1986 National Childhood Vaccine Injury Act, whereby vaccine manufacturers were granted immunity from injuries apparently caused by their products. That holds true for the mRNA Covid therapy. The Pharma companies are off the hook for any deleterious side-effects, from disability to death, and can walk away with impunity with their billions in profits.

Dr. Malone’s crusade for the truth cost him much, as it has cost many much. But with what’s being revealed and admitted, he and many others are now being vindicated. Still, it’s somewhat pyrrhic, with too many lives and relationships lost and ruined along the way. But the battle is not over yet, for we should not underestimate the zeal of ideologues. The truth will win out in the end, and we must stand fast.

A Closed, Unsustainable, Descending Loop

As a follow-up to my thoughts on Payette’s payout, here be a stark image of where are here in Canada. As the graph shows in, well, graphic terms, since 2025, the public sector has contributed to 95.5% of economic growth. The private sector – which funds the public sector, or is supposed to – has[…]Continue reading→

Remembering Father Alphonse de Valk

(Today marks the sixth anniversary of the death of Father Alphonse de Valk, C.S.B., a faithful, courageous and indefatigable Basilian priest, pro-life-and-family apostle, and the founder of Catholic Insight magazine. Here is what we wrote those on his entering into eternity five years ago, as we continue to remember him in our prayers and thoughts)[…]Continue reading→

Presidential Pardon of Weronika Krawczyk

As a good news, follow-up to our story from Poland, of the persecution of Weronika Krawczyk for her pro-life views, we heard that she has been granted a presidential pardon. One might still wonder why one needs a presidential pardon for simply holding the long-held belief that the child within the womb is a child,[…]Continue reading→

Pope Leo and a Rosary for Peace

Pope Leo XIV has asked Catholics across the world to join him in a Rosary for peace today, at 18:00 Rome time (6 pm), which would be noon from where I write (EST). If you are able, whether at that time or another, and in whatever way you pray, to join in intercession with the[…]Continue reading→

Payette’s Payout

I was glancing through some headlines, and noticed a mention of Julie Payette – engineer and astronaut and sometime the Queen’s representative in Canada – which brought back vague memories. She was appointed Governor-General by Justin Trudeau in 2017. Ms. Payette resigned in 2021, amidst claims that she created a ‘toxic work environment’, with allegations[…]Continue reading→

Saint Stanislaus of Szczepanów

We celebrate Saint Stanislaus today (+ April 11, 1079), in light of this Easter Octave, a bishop and martyr who accepted the episcopacy only at the direct order of Pope Alexander II. He proved a wise and courageous leader of his flock, put to death by his own king, Boleslaus, for rebuking the monarch’s ‘immoral[…]Continue reading→

Weronika Krawczyk and Injustice in Poland

Catholic Action in Poland has issued a formal statement appealing to the President of the Republic of Poland to pardon Weronika Krawczyk—convicted for warning other women against an abortion-performing gynaecologist. Catholic Action (AK) emphasizes that no apology is owed to a doctor who has performed numerous abortions and proposed others; furthermore, the organization considers the[…]Continue reading→

Three Easter Musical Gems: Bach, Palestrina and Byrd

A very blessed and glorious Easter! Christus surrexit vere, alleluia! As we begin this Easter Octave with the great Solemnity of Easter, music to lift the soul would be one of Bach’s Easter cantatas, composed during his time at Leipzig in the early 1700’s, for the six Sundays of this festive season, leading up to[…]Continue reading→

Saint Isidore of Seville, the Internet and Industriousness

Today, April 4th, muted this year by Holy Saturday, is the commemoration of Saint Isidore of Seville (560-636) a bishop and doctor of the Church during a tumultuous age, when civilization was crumbling, coming apart at its very seams, which may sound sort of au courant. Then again, the form of this world has always[…]Continue reading→

An Ancient Homily for Holy Saturday

The time between Good Friday and Easter Sunday is one of waiting, in silence, as the world wonders – anticipates – what will happen, after the death of Christ. We re-live this time each year in the anamnesis of our liturgy, and in turn look forward to the glorious re-creation of all things at the[…]Continue reading→
