Some thoughts about the COVID-19 mRNA vaccinations
I apologize for not posting this sooner. I kept seeing new information and had mixed feelings about sharing this.
I used to be in favor of the new COVID-19 vaccine. I was looking forward to getting mine, thinking my life would more quickly go back to “normal”, or at least, a less worrying “normal”.
I no longer believe the current mRNA COVID-19 vaccines are the answer we were hoping for. Many media outlets are pushing the narrative that the current COVID-19 vaccines are the answer to the epidemic. I’m not a fan of conspiracy theories. However, it appears that dissenting voices are being silenced, ridiculed, &/or attacked.
I started having second thoughts about the current mRNA vaccines after I read an article highlighted in an emailed newsletter from The Epoch Times < newsletter@theepochtimes.com > dated 2.11. (I don’t remember when exactly I read it.)
The article’s name is: “Deaths of Elderly Who Recovered From COVID-19, but Died After Vaccine, Raise Questions”. That started me on the quest to learn more.
A newer article, “Adverse Incident Reports Show 966 Deaths Following Vaccination for COVID-19” - Celia Farber 2021.03.06 (below) says in part:
Neither of the mRNA vaccines are FDA approved, rather, they have Emergency Use Approval (EUA). They represent a departure from traditional vaccines in that they do not use any part of the suspected pathogen to stimulate the immune system, but rather, nucleoside modified RNA, from which Moderna drew its name.
Dr. Christian Perrone, head of Infectious Disease at Hopital de Garches in France, stated in a complaint filed in Europe: “The first vaccines they are offering us are not vaccines. They are gene therapy products. They… inject nucleic acids that will cause our own cells to produce elements of the virus.”
The death rate following COVID mRNA vaccination is much higher than that following influenza vaccination.
[A rate of .0023% following COVID mRNA vaccination in comparison for a rate of 0.0000265% for the 2019 flu vaccine.]
In late February, I also read the most popular comment (associated with the 02.10 Deaths of Elderly article) by “Ralph Thinks”. I then watched a couple of the videos he referenced: “Americas Front-line Doctors: Dr. Simone Gold – ‘The Truth about COVID19 Vaccine’ ” and “COVID-19 Bioweapon with Dr. Lee Merritt”. In her video, Dr. Simone Gold says “these mRNA vaccines kind of mimic having COVID-19 indefinitely”. She also talks about potential fertility problems after receiving the mRNA vaccines.
I think Shot in the Dark with Dr. Sherri Tenpenny on Daystar.TV (25.5 min.) is one of the best, short videos that I’ve watched.
I thought Dr. Lee Merritt’s video, Masks: The Science & Myths (2020.10.16), was educational.
I also appreciate Becky Dvorak's Declare Victory Over Coronavirus with This Healing Creed < https://www.destinyimage.com/2020/03/13/declare-victory-over-coronavirus-with-this-healing-creed >.
Those videos (& other videos) led me to believe that the “COVID-19 mRNA vaccines” are more correctly referred to as “experimental biological agents”. They have not received full FDA approval & have only Emergency Use Approval (EUA).
I don’t want to argue with people about this. (That’s not my nature.)
However, I believe people should be informed about what these “vaccines” really are. For the sake of your continuing health, please investigate for yourself. Of course, you need to do what you are persuaded will give you peace.
(Since platforms like YouTube are censoring this information, I’ll post videos & other documents on my Xap-it platform < https://xapit.com/profile/5685 >.)

By Sharyl Attkisson February 10, 2021 Updated: February 16, 2021
Two small clusters of deaths after COVID-19 vaccination have been reported among nursing homes in Kentucky and Arkansas.
In Kentucky, 4 seniors died the same day of their vaccination on Dec. 30, 2020; 3 of the 4 reportedly already had had coronavirus prior to getting vaccinated.
In Arkansas, 4 seniors died at a long-term care facility about a week after their vaccination. All tested positive for COVID-19 after vaccination.
The deaths are reported in a federal database called VAERS, the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System.
A death after vaccination doesn’t necessarily mean the vaccine is to blame. Of those receiving coronavirus vaccines, many are elderly and frail, or already suffering from serious illnesses. That makes it difficult to know whether there’s a connection.
According to VAERS reports, the Kentucky deaths occurred after vaccinations with the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine. An ill 88-year-old woman who was “14 + days post COVID” was given the Pfizer-BioNTech shot while she was “unresponsive in [her] room.” She died within an hour and a half (914961-1). An 88-year-old who was “15 days post COVID” got the shot, was monitored for 15 minutes afterward, and died within 90 minutes (914994-1). A third report says an 88-year-old woman who was “14 + days post COVID” vomited four minutes after receiving her shot, became short of breath, and died that night (915562-1). And an 85-year-old woman vaccinated at 5 p.m. was “found unresponsive” less than two hours later and died shortly after (915682-1).
In response to questions about the Kentucky cluster, a spokesman for the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) said its experts noted “no pattern … among the [Kentucky] cases that would indicate a concern for the safety of the COVID-19 vaccine.”
Scientists differ on whether people who have had coronavirus, such as the Kentucky patients, should receive the COVID-19 vaccination at all. The CDC insists it’s safe for people who have recovered from COVID-19 to get vaccinated and that there’s no minimum interval recommended between infection and vaccination.
“Vaccination should be offered to persons regardless of history of prior symptomatic or asymptomatic SARS-CoV-2 [the virus that causes COVID-19] infection,” it states.
But other scientists say vaccinating people who are already considered immune after a natural COVID-19 infection wastes valuable doses of vaccines when there are shortages. And neither Pfizer’s nor Moderna’s studies showed any benefit to vaccinating previously infected patients.
The Kentucky patients were vaccinated shortly after the CDC disseminated false information on this point. The CDC claimed studies showed that vaccines are effective for people who have had COVID-19. The disinformation was given on the agency’s website, in its Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report, and in a webinar instruction to medical professionals.
In the webinar, the CDC’s Dr. Sarah Oliver falsely stated, “Data from both clinical trials suggests that people with prior infection are still likely to benefit from vaccination.”
Under pressure from Rep. Thomas Massie (R-Ky.), who first flagged the CDC’s incorrect information in December, the agency recently issued a correction but used wording that still falsely implies studies showed that the vaccines helped people previously infected with COVID-19.
Meanwhile, preliminary results from a study co-authored by a team of more than two dozen researchers noted that people infected with COVID-19 in the past “experience systemic side effects with a significantly higher frequency” after vaccination than others.
The CDC confirms that it’s monitoring reports that people who’ve already had COVID-19 seem to be suffering significantly more frequent or more severe reactions after vaccination, or “reactogenicity,” than those who didn’t have COVID-19.
“CDC is aware of reports of increased reactogenicity (such as fever, chills, and muscle aches) in persons who have had COVID-19,” said a spokesman.
Four nursing home deaths in Arkansas occurred after vaccination with the Moderna-manufactured vaccine. All 4 patients tested positive for COVID-19 after vaccination, according to the VAERS reports. But there’s no indication as to whether they had coronavirus at the time of their vaccination or acquired it after their shot.
A 65-year-old man (921547-1) who received the Moderna vaccine on Jan. 2, 2021, died two days later, with the VAERS report noting that he tested positive for COVID-19. Three other Arkansas seniors died about a week after receiving the Moderna vaccine on Dec. 22, 2020. The person reporting the death of an 82-year-old man (917117-1) six days after his shot said he was vaccinated in an attempt to “mitigate his risk” and that “this was unsuccessful and [the] patient died.” The VAERS report notes, “After vaccination, patient tested positive for COVID-19.”
Two elderly women, ages 90 (917790-1) and 78 (917793-1), were vaccinated the same day as the 65-year-old man and also tested positive for COVID-19 about a week after their shots and died. According to the unnamed person who reported the 90-year-old’s death, “the vaccine did not have enough time to prevent COVID 19” and “There is no evidence that the vaccination caused patient’s death. It simply didn’t have time to save her life.”
The person who reported the 78-year-old’s death claimed she died “as a result of COVID-19 and her underlying health conditions and not as a result of the vaccine.”
In response to questions about the Arkansas cluster, the CDC said, “Surveillance data to date do not indicate excess deaths among elderly patients receiving COVID-19 vaccinations.” Overall, the agency says, the number of deaths at long-term care facilities after COVID-19 vaccinations is no higher than what would be expected to occur naturally.
Separately, the CDC is monitoring the impact of the vaccines on already-frail patients such as the chronically ill in nursing homes.
In Norway, alarm bells sounded when 23 people died shortly after vaccination. After investigating 13 of the deaths, Norway’s medical agency has concluded side effects that are common with the Pfizer-BioNTech and Moderna vaccines, such as fever, nausea, and diarrhea, “may have contributed to fatal outcomes in some of the frail patients.”
“There is a possibility that these common adverse reactions, that are not dangerous in fitter, younger patients and are not unusual with vaccines, may aggravate underlying disease in the elderly,” said Steinar Madsen, medical director of the Norwegian Medicines Agency.
A World Health Organization (WHO) expert panel disagrees. It says the deaths “are in line with the expected, all-cause mortality rates and causes of death in the sub-population of frail, elderly individuals, and the available information does not confirm a contributory role for the vaccine in the reported fatal events.”
But one unanswered question is whether patients who are both frail and have already had COVID-19 might suffer a double-whammy that puts them at greater risk when vaccinated. First, those with a previous COVID-19 infection might be more likely to suffer adverse events upon vaccination, according to scientific reports. Second, their frailty may make them less able to handle the adverse events, as Norway’s medical agency found with some patients.
In the United States, VAERS reports contain numerous other cases of elderly, frail people who’d had COVID-19, got vaccinated, and died.
A 96-year-old Ohio woman tested positive for COVID-19 in November, got the Pfizer vaccine on Dec. 28, 2020, in a rehab facility after a fall, and died that afternoon (915920-1).
A 94-year-old Michigan man at a senior living facility who had COVID-19 and other illnesses received the Moderna vaccine on Jan. 2 and died of cardiac arrest two days later (918487-1).
A 91-year-old Michigan woman with Alzheimer’s and other illnesses at a senior living facility who had tested positive for COVID-19 received the Moderna vaccine on Dec. 30, 2020. She died four days later (924186-1).
And an 85-year-old California woman with Alzheimer’s and other disorders at a senior living facility received the Pfizer BioNTech vaccine on Jan. 5 and was found dead the same day. After her vaccination, an earlier COVID-19 test from Jan. 3 returned positive, though she’d had no symptoms (924456-1).
In other cases, elderly, frail patients tested positive for COVID-19 shortly after vaccination.
A 104-year-old woman in New York received the Pfizer vaccine on Dec. 30, 2020. The next day, a COVID-19 test was done and came back positive. She became ill the following day and died on Jan. 4. (920832-1).
And a 71-year-old New York man received the Moderna vaccine on Dec. 21, 2020, developed a fever and respiratory distress, and tested positive for COVID-19. He was given Remdesivir. He died after six days (922977-1).
A WHO vaccine safety subcommittee reviewed reports of deaths among the frail, elderly after the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine. The members determined, two weeks ago, there’s no cause for concern.
“The benefit-risk balance of [Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine] BNT162b2 remains favorable in the elderly, and does not suggest any revision, at present, to the recommendations around the safety of this vaccine,” said the WHO officials.
In response to questions for this report, Pfizer issued a statement saying: “We take adverse events that are potentially associated with our COVID-19 vaccine, BNT162b2, very seriously. We closely monitor all such events and collect relevant information to share with global regulatory authorities. Based on ongoing safety reviews performed by Pfizer, BioNTech, and health authorities, BNT162b2 retains a positive benefit-risk profile for the prevention of COVID-19 infections.”
Pfizer said that millions of people have been vaccinated and that “serious adverse events, including deaths that are unrelated to the vaccine, are unfortunately likely to occur at a similar rate as they would in the general population.”
Pfizer didn’t answer whether it has concluded that any deaths might be linked to vaccination. It also wouldn’t answer whether it has looked at any clusters of deaths, or noted any patterns or areas of concern. And the company wouldn’t say whether it recommends that those recently or currently infected with COVID-19 get vaccinated.
Moderna didn’t answer our questions or respond to a request for information and comment by press time.
Currently, the CDC recommends vaccination for people who’ve already had coronavirus.
The agency didn’t directly answer the question of whether it’s safe for people to get vaccinated while they have an active COVID-19 infection. A CDC spokesman said that deferring vaccination is recommended in those instances, but didn’t say whether it was due to a safety issue.
“Vaccination of persons with known current SARS-CoV-2 infection should be deferred until the person has recovered from the acute illness (if the person had symptoms) and criteria have been met for them to discontinue isolation,” says the CDC. “This recommendation applies to persons who develop SARS-CoV-2 infection before receiving any vaccine doses as well as those who develop SARS-CoV-2 infection after the first dose but before receipt of the second dose.”

I do wish everybody would stop calling this a “vaccine”.
mRNA is pre-programmed genetic material ordered to continually reproduce spike proteins. In this application, it is a bioweapon designed to kill you the minute your body encounters a virus with similar proteins in the future.
But what if you’ve already recovered from COVID, like these poor (now dead) folks?
Then you just injected a perpetual mRNA protein-reproducing engine into an otherwise healthy body that is already sensitized to a similar viral protein signature. Your poor body – it’s going to try to put out a fire on one side of a building as a gasoline tanker is continually pumping fuel in through a window on the opposite side. Not a good outcome for your body.
So this stupid concept has never worked, and it killed every lab animal they tried this in. That’s why no mRNA “vaccine” ever (ever) entered clinical trials, they literally never made it out of the lab.
The truth is out there, you just need to want to know it and seek it out for yourself…

According to adverse incident reports collected by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) 966 individuals have died after having received an mRNA vaccine for COVID-19.
Between Dec. 14 and Feb. 19, 19,769 reports were made to the Vaccine Adverse Events Reporting System (VAERS) following immunizations with either the Moderna or Pfizer BioNTech mRNA vaccines (the only two vaccines given during the time period assessed). At this time, VAERS data is not available after Feb. 19.
The 966 deaths represent 5% of the total number of adverse events reports. Of those who died, 86, (8.9%) died on the same day they got the shot. An additional 129, (13.4%) died within one day. An additional 97 died within 2 days, and 61 within 3 days.
A total of 514 (53.2%) died within a week. 173 died within 7-13 days. 106 within 14-20 days.
85% of deaths occurred in individuals over 60; below 60 there were five deaths among those aged 20-29; 8 aged 30-39; 20 aged 40-49; and 57 aged 50-59.

Neither of the mRNA vaccines are FDA approved, rather, they have Emergency Use Approval (EUA). They represent a departure from traditional vaccines in that they do not use any part of the suspected pathogen to stimulate the immune system, but rather, nucleoside modified RNA, from which Moderna drew its name.
Dr. Christian Perrone, head of Infectious Disease at Hopital de Garches in France, stated in a complaint filed in Europe:
“The first vaccines they are offering us are not vaccines. They are gene therapy products. They… inject nucleic acids that will cause our own cells to produce elements of the virus.”
The death rate following COVID mRNA vaccination is much higher than that following influenza vaccination.
The CDC’s data allows only a ballpark estimation of the rate of deaths following flu vaccination.
In the 2019-2020 influenza season the CDC reports that 51.8% of the U.S. population received a vaccine, which is approximately 170 million people.
VAERS reports that in the calendar year 2019 (not the 2019-2020 influenza season) there were 45 deaths following vaccination. To provide context, in 2018 VAERS reports 46 deaths, and in 2017 it reports 20 deaths.
The 45 deaths in 2019 are occurring at a rate of 0.0000265%, when calculated using the number of vaccines given in the 2019-2020 influenza season.
As of Feb. 19, 41,977,401 COVID vaccinations had been given with 966 deaths reported following vaccination, which is approximately a rate of .0023%.
VAERS was put in place in 1990, to capture unforeseen reactions from vaccines.
VAERS is criticized both for the fact that anybody can submit a report, and for the fact that it catches only a fraction of the adverse incidents.
The VAERS website describes the system in this way:
“Established in 1990, the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS) is a national early warning system to detect possible safety problems in U.S.-licensed vaccines. VAERS is co-managed by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). VAERS accepts and analyzes reports of adverse events (possible side effects) after a person has received a vaccination. Anyone can report an adverse event to VAERS. Healthcare professionals are required to report certain adverse events and vaccine manufacturers are required to report all adverse events that come to their attention.
“VAERS is a passive reporting system, meaning it relies on individuals to send in reports of their experiences to CDC and FDA. VAERS is not designed to determine if a vaccine caused a health problem, but is especially useful for detecting unusual or unexpected patterns of adverse event reporting that might indicate a possible safety problem with a vaccine. This way, VAERS can provide CDC and FDA with valuable information that additional work and evaluation is necessary to further assess a possible safety concern.”
Without a medical diagnosis or autopsy, the report of an adverse incident following a vaccination is not proof that the vaccination caused any particular symptoms.
In a reply to The Epoch Times, about the VAERS death report, Steven Danehy, Director of Global Media Relations for Pfizer, wrote:
“To date, millions of people have been vaccinated with our vaccine. Serious adverse events, including deaths that are unrelated to the vaccine, are unfortunately likely to occur at a similar rate as they would in the general population.”
Moderna has not responded to requests for comment.
The VAERS database is dense with information and can be difficult for some users to follow. The Epoch Times has extracted its data as clearly as possible in charts provided in the link below.

The doctor-patient relationship is being threatened. That means quality patient care is under fire like never before. Powerful interests are undermining the effective practice of medicine with politicized science and biased information. Now more than ever, patients need access to independent, evidence-based information to make the best decisions for their healthcare. Doctors must have the independence to care for their patients without interference from government, media, and the medical establishment.
America’s Frontline Doctors (AFLDS) stands up for every American looking for the best quality healthcare by empowering doctors working on the front lines of our nation’s most pressing healthcare challenges. We help to amplify the voices of concerned physicians and patients nationwide to combat those who push political and economic agendas at the expense of science and quality healthcare solutions.

An obstetrician/gynecologist (Dr. Gregory Michael) in Miami, Florida, received the 1st dose of the Pfizer vaccine on Dec.18th. Shortly after receiving the Pfizer vaccine, he reportedly developed acute immune thrombocytopenia. He died 16 days after getting the COVID vaccine.
Dr. Gregory Michael's cause of death is a result of a brain hemorrhage. Obviously, this is horrible. It’s tragic, and you feel for his family. But it makes you wonder, was his death a result of the COVID 19 vaccines? And if it resulted from the COVID 19 vaccine, should that change your perspective on the COVID 19 vaccines? So I’m going to tell you my thoughts on this, but first, let's learn a little more about what happened. Pfizer is actively investigating the case.
Over 10 million people in the United States have received at least one shot of either the Pfizer COVID 19 Vaccine or Moderna COVID 19 Vaccine, the two authorized in the United States. Me personally, I received both doses of the Pfizer vaccine. So far, there have been about 40 cases of anaphylaxis, meaning a severe allergic reaction. None of which were reported as fatal. Many people have had other side effects like sore arms, fatigue, headache, or fever, which typically last a day or so. The Miami-Dade County medical examiner’s office is investigating Dr. Gregory Michael's death, and as of right now, there is no official autopsy report. But based on the reports, let's see what we can make of his case.
Dr. Gregory Michael was healthy. He did not smoke. Did not take any medications. Never had any reaction to any medication nor vaccines. Supposedly three days after he gets the 1st dose of COVID 19 vaccine, he developed tiny reddish spots, or petechiae, caused by bleeding under the skin of his hands and feet. This prompted him to go to the ER. He gets blood work done, and his platelet levels are low, which is something called thrombocytopenia. Platelets are one of the components of blood clotting. If platelets are too low, it makes people more prone to bleeding. Normal platelet counts range from anywhere from 150,000 to 400,000 or so. People can have spontaneous bleeding, including internal bleeding, but that doesn't typically happen unless the platelet levels are less than 10,000. His levels were reportedly 0, and because they're so low or absent, he gets admitted to the intensive care unit for two weeks. Doctors tried to get his platelet count higher as he had experts from all over the country involved in his care. Presumably, they tried several different treatments.
Typically we give platelet transfusions, which is really a blood product that we're transfusing. But also, we give steroids, specifically glucocorticoids, such as salmeterol or methylprednisolone. If that doesn't work, we try other drugs like Ramaplastum or eltrombopag to stimulate the bone marrow to make more platelets. Sometimes we give immunoglobulins, sometimes we give a drug called rituximab, which is a monoclonal antibody. If all else fails, the last resort is to take out the spleen because sometimes a spleen plays a role in sequestering and destroying platelets. So they were actually planning on doing a splenectomy, meaning removing his spleen. Still, shortly before that, he ends up developing a hemorrhagic stroke that took his life in a matter of minutes. In other words, he bled into his brain.
A sudden get severe thrombocytopenia to the point of bleeding to death because no matter what the cause is, this kind of thing is incredibly rare. I've never had a similar case like this in the intensive care unit.
Now there are some cases like this reported with certain drugs medications can lead to thrombocytopenia. As a result of drug-induced antibodies being made by the immune system, they attack the body's platelets. Drug-induced thrombocytopenia refers to acute immune-mediated thrombocytopenia, and it should be suspected when someone has sudden severe thrombocytopenia.

An Israeli drug that has been successful in initial trials, could hold a key in blunting the COVID-19 pandemic. Thirty patients in serious condition participated in the trial and all recovered, most of them in less than a week.
Sonya Cohen was one of them and she could one day be seen as a walking miracle.
Coming to the hospital with COVID-19, she was unable to breathe. She was placed in intensive care and needed oxygen.
That’s when professor Nadir Arber, head of the Preventive Medicine Division at Tel Aviv’s Sourasky Medical Center, came to her and asked if she would be part of a clinical trial for a new drug. Sonya said yes.
“From the first [dose of the drug], it’s possible to say I felt a lot better. After two days I got off the oxygen in stages and I could breathe,” Sonya told CBN News. “I could really breathe. I felt that I was between life and death. Thanks to God and of course thanks to the doctors.”

CBN News was at the hospital recently when Sonya returned with gifts in hand to thank Dr Arber in person.
“I want to say thank you for everything. You saved my life. I was in a poor condition and now I’m better,” Sonya told Arber.
Now researchers are eager to take the treatment on to the next steps toward approval.
“This is a drug. It is very simple. We give it to patients with severe disease before they are going to deteriorate to very severe disease that mandate[s] ventilations and even [leads to] mortality,” Arber told CBN News.
Arber is directing the research on developing the anti-corona-virus drug, EXO-CD24, a treatment derived from a cell line established from a child aborted decades ago.
“We had a lot of experience on the CD24. We also had started to work on exosomes. Exosomes [are] something exciting. This is how a cell talks to each other. Cell-[to]-cell interaction. It’s amazing cells in our body speak to each other, exchange information,” Arber explained.
He says for most people COVID-19 is like a regular flu. But for about 5% to 7% of those who get it, it gets much worse.
“We don’t really treat the corona, we treated the endpoint,” he said. “There [are] over-reactions of the immune system. The immune system is acting furiously and mainly in the lung releasing a lot of cytokines and chemokines that usually fight infections but now they are destroying the lung tissue, which is very friable,” Arber said.

That’s the point they intervene and administer their treatment, which Arber says interrupts this cytokine storm.
“And we give it by inhalation. It’s very simple. It’s like 2-3 minutes per day and you do it for 8 days. So, we enrolled 30 patients in phase 1,” he said. “We checked for safety and the drug was very safe. No side effects whatsoever.”
All 30 patients in that phase 1 trial recovered.
According to Arber, most of the patients went home in 3 to 5 days. Since the first patient in the trial was involved on September 26, they’ve had almost 150 days to follow-up. They have found the drug to be very safe and effective without side-effects.
While Arber believes the vaccination push is important, he also feels this drug could have an even bigger impact if the remaining two phases of important human trials are successful.
“The biggest advantage of my drug, if it’s effective of course, is that I can produce it fast, efficient, and cheap. Within a few months, I can supply the entire world’s needs. So, this is exciting,” he said.
Arber recently briefed Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on the treatment’s progress. Netanyahu said if the EXO-CD24 succeeds the results would have “global significance.”
Later, at a press conference with the visiting Greek prime minister, Netanyahu praised the results and reported that Greek hospitals would join in the clinical trials.
“If you’re infected by corona and you’re seriously ill and you have a lung problem, you take this, you inhale this, with a saline solution and you come out, feeling good,” Netanyahu said holding up the tiny bottle that contains the drug.
Arber says many more countries want to participate, and he believes this could just be the beginning.
“And then it’s going to be the platform for many other disease[s], which overreact, like auto-immune disease in the lung[s] and in the entire body.

Researchers at Israel’s Ichilov Hospital, Tel Aviv Sourasky Medical Center claim that they have developed a drug that may cure serious cases of the coronavirus.
According to the hospital, 29 out of 30 patients with moderate-to-severe cases of COVID-19 were administered the drug, named EXO-CD24, and experienced a marked recovery in just 2 days. They were released from the hospital 3 to 5 days later.
The medication, developed by Professor Nadir Arber from the hospital’s Integrated Cancer Prevention Center, fights the cytokine storm –a potentially life-threatening systemic inflammatory syndrome that is believed to be responsible for many coronavirus deaths.
The medicine will now move on to additional trial phases, though the hospital sees it as a potential game-changer.
“I’m proud that here at Ichilov we are among the world leaders in finding the cure for the horrible epidemic,” said Professor Roni Gamzu, CEO of Ichilov Hospital, and Israel’s former coronavirus czar.
