Aussie wins case over COVID vaccine-caused pericarditis

As reported in mainstream news outlets like ABC, triple jabbed South Australian government employee Daniel Shepherd developed pericarditis “after getting a mandatory COVID vaccine” and “has won compensation against his employer”. Source. He apparently “now has the heart of a 90-year-old”, and suffers from “chest pains” and “severe fatigue” from “just mild exertion”. Nine News noted that “Pericarditis is meant to clear within a few months but Shepherd’s symptoms have plagued him for almost two years” and “The condition affects two in every 100,000 people.” Source. Those numbers don’t measure up well with the numbers needed to be vaccinated to prevent a severe COVID-19 hospitalisation now being in the hundreds of thousands for the young and healthy. It’s not reassuring to hear that such adverse effects are ‘rare’ when serious COVID is rarer still and it isn’t clear that the jabs even help with that - they might even make it worse (negative effectiveness).

Note also the admission that while pericarditis (and myocarditis) is said to be a short-term issue, it isn’t here. This apparently wasn’t meant to happen. It contradicts what they told us. One more thing they were wrong about. Does that include that the jabs are safe and effective? The Australian government still maintains that “COVID-19 vaccinations are safe and save lives”. Source.

Okay then.

Extra: A lot of my research of late concerns myocarditis, and how recent data indicates that that one side affect ensures that the risks of the vaccine outweighs the benefits, at least in the young and healthy (see here, here, and here). This case concerned the related pericarditis. Let’s not forget that Pfizer is still trying to “determine if COMIRNATY is safe and effective, and if there is a myocarditis/pericarditis association that should be noted”. People’s lives are being ruined, even ended, and they’re still trying to figure it out. How likely will it be that they do, when their money and even existence may be tied to this issue? And there are many other known and unknown adverse effects, and by default we don’t know the long-term implications for any of them. Should we still be confident that the jabs are safe, and worth the risk for all, including 6 month old babies?

Extra: In Australia, people - known as ‘conspiracy theorists’ - were fired for not taking the jab, because they were worried that things just like this might happen, and that COVID infection itself would be far more preferable. Like in my case.
