If I'm looking at this right, it takes months for the survival curves to become roughly parallel. This means self-controlled case series would never be able to pick up a risk. There is no conceivable risk and control periods they could define that would work. I googled, and lo and behold!:

SCCS finds no risk of RVO!!!! I f**cking new this would happen. This is giving me goosebumps.

Brilliant insight! Very important. Actually you can to a before-after treatment SCCS design, like they did with the POTS study: https://www.nature.com/articles/s44161-022-00177-8

IMO, all SCCS are only exploratory and ought to do brute force calculations of all possible combinations of time periods. High false-negatives, low false-positives.

Your suggestion is basically the same as the tree-based data mining method Kulldorff developed. If you look at this list of safety monitoring initiatives sponsored by CDC, they actually have one to do tree-based data mining of the VSD dataset. It's been a couple of months since I checked, but I've never seen a single report about their results. I wonder why?

210 patients were included in the study, split between 4 types of jabs.

Had to report a problem in first 28 days.

Trouble is a number were in Hospital and not able to be seen by specialists, might also have had Stroke etc.

This is typical:

Results: 210 patients were included in the study. No increased risk of RVO was observed after the first dose (1-14 days IRR: 0.87, 95% CI: 0.41-1.85; 15-28 days IRR: 1.01, 95% CI: 0.50-2.04; 1-28 days IRR: 0.94, 95% CI: 0.55-1.58) and second dose of vaccination (1-14 days IRR: 1.21, 95% CI: 0.62-2.37; 15-28 days IRR: 1.08, 95% CI: 0.53-2.20; 1-28 days IRR: 1.16, 95% CI: 0.70-1.90). No association between RVO and vaccination was found in subgroup analyses by type of vaccine, gender and age.

Conclusions: This self-controlled case series found no evidence of an association between RVO and COVID-19 vaccination.

What's missing in the conclusion? This: "...; however, none of the 210 patients were studied beyond the 28 days used as the parameter in the listed results. Our bad."

One of my coworkers had a similar issue right at the beginning of the initial shot campaign in early 2021. Her eye doctor told her he believed it was caused by the shot and that he had seen a large number of such incidents within that very short time period.

good to hear there are still some good doctors out there.

And then there's the new epidemic of brain abscesses in children. No idea where that came from. Totally unexpected (and in some cases sudden).

I'm more concerned about the epidemic of brain absences that started in March 2020...😏

Interesting that this study goes out more than 2 years - my husband got 2 shots in January & March of 2021, and 15 months later collapsed unconsious - they discovered TEN blood clots in his lungs the size of caterpillars! The doctors said they had seen a 40% increase in blood clots since the vaccine rollout - but they only admitted this when we rejected their stock explanation of how a blood clot forms. They said with this size and number, they believed these clots formed in the lungs and kept growing until he couldn't take it - luckily he survived! Most people think the time between vaccination and injury has to be almost immediate, but that's not true.

Correct. Patients are only observed for 15 minutes when most immediate deaths occur between 24 and 72 hours.

And if death is an outcome, you can logically assume life-threatening conditions and permanent disabilities between healthy and death could potentially occur at any time, depending on the shot, person, storage, administration, etc.

It's good to see that VAERS is working as intended.

It's criminal that it is not being used as intended.

Expand full comment

If used as intended, the shots would have been halted within less than one month IMHO

Exactly.

Excellent short summary of yet more proof of mRNA disaster ! One WHO scamdemic treaty is in place they'll be good to go again ! https://twitter.com/JohnMasonMSP/status/1654065703765377025

Very interesting reference from Israel: Safety of the BNT162b2 mRNA Covid-19 Vaccine in a Nationwide Setting. Thanks!

They compare vax/novax and infected/noninfected.

But I cannot find how many of the infected/noninfected are vaxed or not. Would be interesting.

I actually had a CRVO weeks after my last vaccination which I was talked into during hospital visit for something unrelated. I think it was Boostrix that they gave me. Started with amaurosis fugax in the evenings upon laying down that the eye clinic I went to was at a loss to explain, until I saw a sudden shower of black floaters (better described as a storm).

Fortunately I never developed glaucoma and my eye sight is fully restored. It's been about ten years now and all that's left are a couple of black floaters.

No more vaccines for me.

Thanks for continuing to shine a light on these innumerable issues Josh. You are a true Lodestar! Humanity owes you and the others of your ilk a debt of gratitude that can never be repaid for the efforts you have and continue to go to for us. We the many shall always remember the few who sort knowledge and understanding in the face of this Tsunami of lies, deception, censorship and malfeasance. Deploying your critical thinking skills, knowledge and experience to unearth truth obfuscated by the very institutions and governments that falsely purport to do the same... Thank you, today, tomorrow and everyday!

I was called two days ago to babysit my 2-1/2 year old grandson because he had conjunctivitis or pink eye. Then a friend who I didn’t tell mentioned he saw pink eye as an adverse effect. Sadly my grandson has been jabbed twice and the last was about a month ago. I wonder if any of this is related. I realize pink eye is pretty common with kids...but still..

Thank you all for the info, and yet here we go in Canada they are going to build a poison centre so Ford can cash in on the money. Just Evil. Plain evil.

I would expect that if mRNA substances were causing blood clots, and as this substance seems to move all over the body, then it is quite likely that micro clots could appear anywhere there is blood flowing.

I can't reproduce his excess events calculation. I get 1 in 400 in the 65+ and 1 in 2900 in the 18-64.
