————————————————————
My older brother, Sam, passed away on 29 October 2024. He was only 75 years old. He had taken at least five (possibly, six) injections of COVID-19 “vaccines”, starting in early 2021. His last “vaccine” injection was taken around Thanksgiving of 2023, although he may have been given yet another shot while he was residing in a nursing home in the early fall of 2024. Yours Truly has written for this board regarding the health decline of Sam after he took the COVID-19 “vaccine” shot in November 2023: please see https://www.theqtree.com/2024/10/18/health-friday-10-18-2024-special-edition-neurological-effects-of-the-covid-19-vaccines-physical-and-psychological/; and, https://www.theqtree.com/2025/07/25/health-friday-7-25-2025-open-thread-more-on-the-covid-19-vaccines-and-what-they-do-to-the-brain/. Within the period of fewer than six months after his taking that COVID-19 “vaccine” shot in November 2023, my brother had lost interest in things he had once enjoyed, such as helping out with his grandchildren; had stopped going to church; had a “freak accident” in which he wrecked his car and then decided not to drive again; had lost interest in taking care of himself and eating properly; and so on. Then, there was the catastrophic fall he sustained in his home in early July 2023; then, to two weeks in the ICU; then, to be being discharged to a nursing home; then, to the diagnosis of “sudden-onset dementia” at that facility; then, to his losing the ability to walk and becoming bed-bound; then, to his contracting pneumonia in late October 2023 at this facility; then, to his death.
My brother had co-morbidities that complicated his health profile: among them, COPD from decades of smoking (he quit in 2010 after that diagnosis and was treated); and, prostate cancer (diagnosed and treated in 2019.) He had lost his wife in the October 2018, just shy of their 47th wedding anniversary; she passed away from an undiagnosed aneurysm that ruptured. He had spent several years after her death taking counseling and medications, which assisted in his processing of this tragedy.
What ultimately happened with my brother was despite the fact that he had “good longevity genes” in his makeup — there were multiple older members on both sides of our birth family who had lived well beyond their 80th, and even their 90th, birthdays. What happened with my brother was also despite the fact that he had made it a point of taking better care of his health since the diagnosis of COPD in 2010. While it is not possible for Yours Truly to state this definitively, I will say I firmly believe that it was the ingredients and mechanisms of the COVID-19 “vaccines” that Sam took which, over time and incrementally, compromised his brain — cognitively and emotionally — with terrible consequences. I firmly believe that it was the COVID-19 “vaccine” injection that my brother took at Thanksgiving 2023 which was the “straw that broke the camel’s back” for him.
However, even before my brother passed away, Yours Truly’s cousin Bill died in September 2023, a “died suddenly and unexpectedly” situation. Cousin Bill had also had taken COVID-19 “vaccines”, starting in 2021. By early 2022, this previously-healthy, active man had been diagnosed with cardiac problems and was undergoing treatment. According to what I understand of the issue, he was “doing well” in treatment. I am also more than fairly certain that my cousin Bill continued to take COVID-19 “booster vaccine” injections, likely based on the recommendations of his doctors. And then, September 2023 happened. Cousin Bill’s death was the first close-family death of the COVID-19 era for Yours Truly. To say that his death was hard for me is an understatement. I have good memories of cousin Bill. His father had passed away in 1993; his mother had passed away in 2017. They did not have to deal with the death of their son.
To say that the passing away of my own brother was devastating to Yours Truly is an understatement of Malthusian proportions. His death has shaken me down to my core. The last time I spoke to him (by phone) was twelve days before his death. It was heartbreaking and gut-wrenching to hear him fighting the “sudden-onset dementia” that had closed in on his brain. To know that he would never leave the nursing home, go back to his house and his nice old dog, go and be with his adult children and his grandchildren. To hear him tell me to send him books on the Civil War or World War II so he could “brush up” on his reading (the truth was, that by this time, he couldn’t read more than one or two sentences from anything.) To know that what had happened to him was so senseless, so incredibly senseless. It was (and still is) heartbreaking to go through the “what-if?” scenarios in my head — What if he had listened to me when I tried to warn him about the dangers of the COVID-19 “vaccines”, and refused to take any more of those injections? What if he had taken Ivermectin to try and clear out at least some of the COVID-19 “vaccine”-induced damage to his body and mind? What if the ingredients and mechanisms of the COVID-19 “vaccines” Sam took aggravated the lung damage from his COPD? What if the ingredients and mechanisms of the COVID-19 “vaccines” he took aggravated or re-established any emotional / psychological issues still lingering after the death of his beloved wife? What if? What if? Our mother had passed away in 1992; our father, in 2006. They did not have to deal with the death of Sam.
Yours Truly is not writing the above in order to solicit sympathy. I am writing the above to illustrate the kinds of things that went on — that are going on now — and, that will go on — in millions of families when the damage induced by the COVID-19 “vaccines” that were taken by family members starts to present (and the damaging effects that have started to present already.) It is all well and good to have a general “working knowledge” of the negative effects these “vaccines” (Bioweapon Toxin Injections) can, and do, induce in those who take them. It is quite another thing to lose close family members due to the negative effects of these “vaccines” that they took. It is quite another thing to have to deal with the knowledge that loved ones in the “here and now” who are COVID-19 “vaccinated” have had their bodies and brains damaged from these “vaccines.” It is quite another thing to listen to them tell those who try to warn them that they aren’t interested — that they “follow the science”; that they “trust their doctor”; among other responses.
Yours Truly will therefore say to those reading today’s offering who have taken COVID-19 “vaccines”:
**** The COVID-19 “vaccines” in your body have already damaged your natural immune system, perhaps even destroyed it: https://jessicar.substack.com/p/the-bnt162b2-mrna-vaccine-against, “‘The BNT162b2 mRNA vaccine against SARS-CoV-2 reprograms both adaptive and innate immune responses”, 16 December 2021. Please see the screenshot from her article, below, the Figure 3 from the cited paper in the article:

Figure 3 shows how the modRNA COVID-19 “vaccines” systematically damage and destroy the natural immune system cells of the “vaccinated” person’s body.
**** The COVID-19 “vaccines” in your body are damaging your heart and lungs: https://doctors4covidethics.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/08/causality-article.pdf, “Vascular and organ damage induced by mRNA vaccines: irrefutable proof of causality”, Michael Palmer, MD, and Sucharit Bhakdi, MD, 18 August 2022. Please see the screenshots of Slide 7 and its description from the above paper, which clearly shows myocarditis induced by modRNA COVID-19 “vaccines”:


Please see the screenshot of Slide 12 from the above paper, which clearly shows lung damage induced by modRNA COVID-19 “vaccines”:

Note: the slides in the above paper are from autopsies of persons who passed away after COVID-19 “vaccination.”
**** The COVID-19 “vaccines” in your body crossed the Blood-Brain Barrier and damaged the cells and functions of your brain: https://eurmedres.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.1186/s40001-023-00992-0, “A review of neurological side effects of COVID-19 vaccination”, Roya Hosseini and Nayere Askari, 25 February 2023. Please see the screenshot of Figure 1 from this paper, below:

**** The COVID-19 “vaccines” in your body can induce psychosis: https://nature.com/articles/s41380-024-02627-0, “Psychiatric adverse events following COVID-19 vaccination: A population-based cohort study in Seoul, South Korea”, Eun Mi Chun, et al., 4 June 2024. Please see the screenshot of Figure 2 from this paper, below:

It is a mistake to dismiss the above paper and its conclusions “because it’s from South Korea.” The modRNA COVID-19 “vaccines” used in South Korea that are examined for the above paper are the same as those used in the United States (COMIRNATY, by Pfizer-BioNTech; and, SPIKEVAX, by Moderna.)
**** The COVID-19 “vaccines” in your body will alter your DNA and change your body’s genomic codes. These effects are permanent, and are involved in cancers that present after COVID-19 “vaccination”: https://www.thefocalpoints.com/p/breaking-first-peer-reviewed-study-715, “BREAKING: First Peer-Reviewed Study Finds Direct Molecular Evidence of mRNA “Vaccine” Genomic Integration”, Nicolas Hulscher, MPH, 14 October 2025. Please see the screenshot from this article, below (the image was AI-generated):

**** The COVID-19 “vaccines” in your body, if you are a female, have destroyed up to 60% of the lifetime supply of eggs in your ovaries: https://www.thefocalpoints.com/p/mrna-shots-are-crippling-humanitys, “mRNA Shots Are Crippling Humanity’s Ability to Reproduce—And No Government is Ending COVID-19 Vaccination”, Nicolas Hulscher, MPH, 15 May 2025. Please see the screenshot from this article, below (Yours Truly believes that the graphic image of how COVID-19 “vaccines” destroy primordial follicles is AI-generated):

**** Every injection of a COVID-19 “vaccine” WILL SHORTEN THE LIFE OF THE “VACCINE” RECIPIENT: Please see: https://slaynews.com/news/major-study-confirms-covid-vaccine-dose-shortens-lives-recipients/, “Major Study Confirms Every Covid ‘Vaccine’ Dose ‘Shortens the Lives of Recipients'”, by Frank Bergman, 14 October 2025. The published paper is here: https://ijvtpr.com/index.php/IJVTPR/article/view/123/423, “Were the COVID-19 Shots Good, Bad, or Just Ugly? Dispensing with the Only Reasonable Objection to the Empirical Fact that Each Dose of the COVID-19 Shots, on the Average, Shortened the Lives of the Recipients”, John W. Oller, Jr., PhD, and Daniel Santiago, PharmD, 7 October 2025. Screenshots from this paper are below; first, of the Figure 2 from the paper, the all-age mortality figures reported to Public Health England:

Followed by Table 3 from the paper, the Connecticut Medicare Records:

Next, of Figure 5 from the paper, also derived from the Connecticut Medicare Records:

Then, from the Conclusions section of the paper:


These are the COVID-19 “vaccines” that you allowed to be injected into your body.
These are the COVID-19 “vaccines” that you allowed to be injected into the bodies of your children.
And why did you allow these unproven-technology, not-completely tested, “vaccines” to be put into your body, and into the bodies of your children? Because you “trusted the science“; because you “trusted your doctor“; because you were told that “it was the right thing to do“; because you were told that the COVID-19 “vaccines” were “safe and effective“; because you were told that the “the known and potential benefits of the COVID-19 vaccines outweigh the known and potential risks”; because you were told to “get COVID-19 vaccinated in order to keep yourself, your children, and your parents, safe“; because were you told “get COVID-19 vaccinated in order to keep your job, in order to travel, in order to go to school.” You were lied to. Every step of the way. Lied to by the government — by the CDC and the FDA — by your doctors — by your employer — by your school. They are continuing to lie to you.

Yours Truly has questions for those reading today’s offering who are COVID-19 “vaccinated”:
**** What are you going to do to try and mitigate the damage that these injections have done to your body and brain? To the bodies and brains of your children?
**** What are you going to do to educate yourself regarding how dangerous and deadly these injections are?
**** Do you plan to challenge and question any “recommendation” or “mandate” to have yourself and/or your children injected with more COVID-19 “vaccine” shots?
**** Do you plan to at least think about refusing to take any more COVID-19 “vaccines”, and to think about refusing COVID-19 “vaccines” being injected into your children?

For those medical professionals who are COVID-19 “vaccinated”, Yours Truly has extra questions, below. These are based on my 5 1/2+ years of being an independent COVID-19 researcher and writer:
**** With all due respect: Have you recognized that the modRNA COVID-19 “vaccines” induce multiple types of serious adverse events, medical conditions, and can also kill? Have you read this report?: https://phmpt.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/11/5.3.6-postmarketing-experience.pdf, 5.3.6 CUMULATIVE ANALYSIS OF POST-AUTHORIZATION ADVERSE EVENT REPORTS OF PF-07302048 (BNT162B2) RECEIVED THROUGH 28-FEB-2021, FDA time-stamped on 30 April 2021 09:26 (GMT).
**** With all due respect: Do you understand, that since you are COVID-19 “vaccinated”, there is a strong likelihood that you have also had negative effects induced from these “vaccines”?
**** With all due respect: Why are you still recommending and/or administering these “vaccines”, given the above evidence of damage and death induced by these injectables? Did you perform your own research into the COVID-19 “vaccines” to satisfy yourself that the CDC / FDA claims of “safe and effective” regarding these injectables were / are, true? And, with all due respect, before there are objections to what Yours Truly is writing, please see these websites, by medical doctors, who have actually investigated the COVID-19 “vaccines” and know how dangerous and deadly they are : https://www.thefocalpoints.com/ (Dr. Peter A. McCullough, MD, MPH); https://pierrekorymedicalmusings.com/ (Dr. Pierre Kory, MD, MPA, Certified Tribal Practitioner); https://doctors4covidethics.org/ (Dr. Michael Palmer, MD, Dr. Sucharit Bhakdi, MD); https://imahealth.org/ (Dr. Joseph Varon, MD, FCCM, FCCP).
**** With all due respect: Why are you not demanding that your employer; your State Medical Licensing Board; your medical professional organization; your Medical Specialty Credentialing organization; the CDC, FDA, AMA — impartially investigate the mounting evidence that the modRNA COVID-19 “vaccines” are dangerous and deadly? Do you, perhaps, have concerns about “retribution” from these entities by doing so?
————————————————–
Yours Truly will remember the echoes of my older brother, Sam, before he started taking COVID-19 “vaccines.” I will remember the echoes of my Cousin Bill before he “died suddenly and unexpectedly.” The pain and the sense of loss from their deaths will never completely go away, since the human mind stores everything in the subconscious and the memory. One can only integrate the pain and the sense of loss into their own being in the healthiest way possible while moving onward.
And, in memory of those who have passed away from the negative effects of the COVID-19 “vaccines” that they took, “The Lark Ascending”, by Ralph Vaughan Williams: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZR2JIDnT218&list=RDZRJIDnT218&start_radio=1
The COVID-19 “vaccines” — ALL OF THEM — MUST be removed from the market and from use. NOW.
THERE. MUST. BE. ACCOUNTABILITY.
THERE. MUST. BE. JUSTICE.
THERE. MUST. BE. TRUTH.
