HEARTS ATTACKED – This is a historically serious problem that threatens the very existence of the nation

Published

on

BY SIMONE J. SMITH

“We’re seeing right now the highest death rates we’ve ever seen in the history of this business.”

This comment was made by Scott Davison, the CEO of OneAmerica, a $100 billion life insurance and retirement company headquartered in Indianapolis.

Early last year, there was an astounding report that several life insurance companies determined there was an overwhelming, unexplained increase (40%) in “all-cause deaths” among 18 to 49-year-olds.

From that 2022 report:

Three physicians released real data drawn from the clinical diagnosis codes. The increases found are from 2021, compared to the five-year average from 2016 to 2020.

  • Myocardial infarction: 269% increase
  • Miscarriages: 300% increase
  • Bell’s palsy: 291% increase
  • Congenital malformations: 156% increase
  • Female infertility: 471% increase
  • Pulmonary embolisms: 467% increase
  • Neurologic abnormalities: 300% increase
  • Cancers: 300% increase

According to a September 2022 study by Cedars Sinai hospital in Los Angeles, since the COVID-19 pandemic began, heart attack deaths across all age groups have become more common in the U.S.

The age group hit the hardest? People between 25 and 44, who saw a 29.9% relative increase in heart attack deaths over the first two years of the pandemic (which means the actual number of heart attack deaths were almost 30% higher than the predicted number).

Last week, I found out that a high school friend of mine died from a heart attack. He was only 40 years old. The news brought me to tears, but it also made me think; why are so many young people dying from heart attacks, and an even better question is why is this not being spoken about more on mainstream media?

I do have my assertions, but as a journalist, it is not my job to assert my thoughts, it is my job to present the facts, and a fact that cannot be ignored is that the increase in heart related deaths and disease have increased since the roll out of the COVID-19 vaccine.

What I find interesting is that during the pandemic, the news would let us know every day how many people had died from COVID-19 or had been infected by OVID-19. Now there is an increase in sudden death syndrome, and cardiac arrests and the mainstream media is not making the same effort to report these numbers. I wonder why?

During one of my interviews with the esteemed David Icke, he mentioned that we would be dealing with the fallout of this pandemic for at least five years. He made this comment in 2021. When he shared this information with me, I was not sure what he meant, but as the years have passed, I have seen the pain experienced by many families after they have lost their loved ones suddenly, and unfortunately many of these deaths have been cardiovascular in nature.

Well, this week I am going to sound the alarm again. I am doing so for a few reasons: our Liberal government is thinking of enforcing vaccine mandates again, and I want our community to be prepared to stand up and say NO! No to a vaccine that has caused more harm than it has helped.

In January 2022, the CEO of OneAmerica, an Indiana-based life insurance company, shared data about how the pandemic and its response by public health officials, has impacted the life and disability insurance industry.

Davison said death rates among working age people – those 18 to 64-years-old – were up 40% in the third and fourth quarter of 2021 over pre-pandemic levels.

The fact-checkers immediately came out in force in attempts to debunk growing conversation that a newly developed mRNA vaccine technology, rushed to market with no long-term testing may have led to such an increase. Instead, they placed blame on the delta variant of the coronavirus and deferred medical care during the pandemic.

Despite Davison’s claim that the data is “Consistent across every player in the business,” no other insurance companies made it known that their 2021 data reflected this warning signal.

Japanese Government Sued

On February 2nd, 2023, Dr Masanori Fakushima filed a lawsuit against the Japanese government for cancellation of the administrative action. He did so because the Japanese Health Ministry refused to acknowledge the causal link between vaccines and deaths. Dr Fakushima and a team of researchers said, “They had no choice but to dare to take legal action.”

“It is a matter of fundamental importance for the Japanese government to continuously collect and disclose accurate data,” Dr Fukushima expressed. “I have come to realize that this is an historically serious problem that threatens the very existence of the nation of Japan,” he stressed. “As a medical doctor and a scientist, I had no choice but to dare to take legal action.”

Dr Fukushima then broke down some startling data. “Take a look at the data for 65-69 and 70-79 age groups,” he implored. “Surprisingly, the number of new infections or positive cases per 100,000 people is four times higher for people who have been vaccinated twice, compared to unvaccinated people.”

“Also, look at the data provided by the Advisory Board in September 2021,” he invited. “The fatality rate of the unvaccinated people and the fatality rates of the one-dose and two-dose vaccine people were described properly. According to the description in red, vaccination has indeed reduced the fatality rate for those over 65 years of age. However, for all ages, vaccination has demonstrated the opposite effect, causing higher fatality rates. This is a paradoxical phenomenon,” he asserted.

Again, data like this is not reported as readily as COVID-19 numbers were, and again I ask, why not? Is Big Pharma putting pressure on the media for this type of coverage? There is the thought that the pharmaceutical industry silences data and stifles information that doesn’t fit the COVID-19 vaccine narrative.

Australia Reports Increase in Deaths

The latest mortality data released by the Australian Bureau of Statistics found that there had been 128,797 deaths from January 1st, to August 31st, 2022, which was 17%  higher than the historical average.

That equates to an extra 18,671 deaths. Of those, only 7727 were attributed to Covid – or 41% – leaving 10,944 non-Covid excess deaths.

Deaths in the month of August were 12.4% above the historical average, down from 16.2% in July. According to the Actuaries Institute analysis, ischaemic heart disease was the biggest contributor to excess deaths in 2022, followed by cancer.

Hmmmm…

As a reminder of why many people remain skeptical of these “explanations,” I will note that countries in Europe have nixed the vaccine for children and teenagers, asserting the risks of vaccination outweigh the risk of infection.

Australia’s former deputy chief medical officer said the country should reconsider its stance on giving the dose to children above the age of five.

The UK has stopped offering the vaccine to healthy children who turned five after August, while Sweden no longer recommends it to teenagers aged 12 to 17.

In Denmark, since July no one under the age of 18 can get vaccinated against Covid, with health officials saying very small numbers of children get severely ill from the disease, and therefore vaccination isn’t necessary.

An article in Medical News Today stated clearly that the COVID-19 vaccine is still relatively new, and experts do not know exactly how common heart side effects are. However, several studies have examined how common myocarditis is among those receiving the COVID mRNA vaccine.

A study of 23.1 million residents of four Nordic countries found that the risk of myocarditis was highest in males aged 16–24 years, reporting nine to 28 excess events in every 100,000 vaccine recipients. The risk was higher after receiving the Moderna vaccine than from the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine, with the risk climbing after the second dose.

I always find it interesting when people ignore the facts. I could go on and on about research that has been found to prove the information provided above, but instead I will say this; the human race is under attack. We have to ensure that we take a stand if they ever try to force a vaccine on the nation again.

We are not guinea pigs, and we should not be treated as such.

BY RUSHANE FERRON

The Jamaica Cultural Development Commission (JCDC) has received an unprecedented number of submissions for this year’s FiWi Short Film Competition. Launched earlier this year, the competition drew an impressive 47 entries. Currently, 17 shortlisted films are available for public viewing on the JCDC’s YouTube channel, with winners set to be announced on October 24th.

Executive Director of the JCDC, Mr. Lenford Salmon, expressed pride in the competition’s growing success, stating, “This record number of entries reflects how Jamaicans are embracing the programmes offered by the JCDC. While the Commission is well known for preserving and showcasing our culture, we also recognize the importance of using technology to engage, particularly with our youth. The FiWi Short Film Competition is a perfect example of how we can bring our culture to life in the digital age. The fact that it’s four years old and already experiencing this level of growth is a promising sign for the future.”

Drama and Theatre Arts Development Specialist at the JCDC, Mr. Shaun Drysdale, attributes this year’s spike in entries to the increasing interest in filmmaking, fueled by the proliferation of social media platforms that support storytelling through visuals.

We are living in a digital age. Filmmaking is now in the hands of the average person on the street via his, or her cell phone. Add to that the inherent creativity of Jamaicans and you are left with a potent combination, which when given the correct environment, can reap tangible rewards. That is what we are experiencing at this time,” Mr. Drysdale said.

The JCDC FiWi Short Film Competition seeks to promote Jamaican culture through the production of films ranging from 3-5 minutes in duration. The films must be based on set criteria, and primarily centred around a Jamaican proverb.

This year’s proverbs are: “Sweet mout fly follow coffin go a hole”; “Puss nuh hab han, but him tek him foot wipe him face”; “Keep clear a ole house, les dem fall dung pon you”; “Rockstone a riber bottom nuh feel sun hot”; and “Finger tink, yuh cyan cut eh trow ‘wey”.

In addition to the proverbs, participants were also given two special themes around which to build the treatment of their films, based on concepts provided by two sponsors. These are: “SEAS IN FOCUS: Uniting for marine managed areas”- National Conservation Trust Fund of Jamaica (NCTFJ) and “Need a passport quick, Get it with just a click”- Passport, Immigration and Citizenship Agency (PICA).

Mr. Drysdale further noted that this year’s shortlisted films represent a variety of the possible genres with eleven dramatic works, two animation films, one comedy, one documentary and two science fiction films. Three of the participants are from the youth category, which is for filmmakers between 12-18 years old and the remaining 14 from adult category.

In addition to viewing the short films online, the public will have an opportunity to view at a special screening to be held on National Heroes’ Day, Monday, October 21st, 2024, as a feature of JCDC National Heritage Fest and Family Fun Day being held on the south lawn at Devon House in St Andrew.

The FiWi Short Film Competition was started by the JCDC in 2021 in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. The competition is the brainchild of the JCDC’s Drama and Theatre Arts Unit and encourages Jamaican amateur filmmakers to examine selected Jamaican proverbs and based on their interpretation create the treatment for a short film.

BY PAUL JUNOR

The Education Quality and Accountability Office (EQAO), which administers the Grade 3, 6 and 9 assessments across Ontario and the Ontario Secondary School Literacy Test (OSSLT), recently released the 2024 results. For many schools across the province, EQAO results are a snapshot of how students are doing compared to their peers in other schools at the same grade level.

The York Catholic District School Board (YCDSB) has maintained a high level of consistency with respect to the outstanding performance of its students on the Education Quality and Accountability Office (EQAO) and the Ontario Secondary School Literacy Test (OSSLT). In a media release on Wednesday, October 9th, 2024, details were revealed about the positive achievements and exemplary accomplishments of its students.

EQAO results were released on September 26th, 2024. The focus was, “Mathematics Achievement Remains an Area of Focus but Sees Gradual Growth Over Time with Some School Boards Showing Significant Increases; Literacy Achievement Remains High but Shows Some Decline.” The data was based on the 2023-2024 school year during which over 570,000 students wrote the EQAO assessments at the elementary and secondary levels on the English and French-language school systems.

For students who wrote the Grade 3 Assessment of Reading, Writing and Mathematics:

  • 71% met the provincial standard in reading compared to 73% in 2022-2023, and 73% in 2021-2022.
  • 64% of Grade 3 students met the provincial standard in writing, compared to 65% in 2022-2023 and 65% in 2021-2022.
  • 61% of Grade 3 students met the provincial standard in mathematics, compared to 60% in 2022-2023 and 59% in 2021-2022.

For students who wrote the Grade 6 Assessment of Reading, Writing and Mathematics:

  • 82% met the provincial standard in reading, compared to 84% in 2022-2023 and 85% in 2021-2022.
  • 80% met the provincial standard in writing, compared to 84% in 2022-2023, and 84% in 2021-2022.
  • 50% met the provincial standard in mathematics, compared to 50% in 2022-2023 and 47 % in 2021-2022.

For students who wrote the Grade 9 Assessment in Mathematics:

  • 54% met the provincial standard, compared to 54% in 2022-2023 and 52% in 2021-2022.

For students who wrote the Grade 10 Ontario Secondary School Literacy Test (OSSLT):

  • 85% of first-time eligible students were successful, compared to 85% in 2022-23 and 82% in 2021-2022.
  • 52% of previously eligible students were successful in 2023-2024, compared to 63% in 2022-2023 and 85% in 2021-2022.

John De Faveri, Interim Director of Education of the YCDSB writes, “We are always looking for ways to provide a better school experience, but today is a time to celebrate our students and staff for their excellent academic achievement. I want to particularly highlight the incredible work that is being done in mathematics, which we see in these results. Mathematical literacy is such an important life skill and we are happy to share a love of numbers with our students.”

Results from the Grade 3, 6 and 9 EQAO Mathematics results show improvement in Mathematics compared to 2023. In addition, with respect to reading and writing results for Grade 6 there has been a consistent steady upward rise in the performance of students as 89% and 90% of students met or exceeded provincial standards when compared to the province’s average of 82% and 89%.

Elizabeth Crowe, Chair of the Board of Trustees for YCDSB states, “EQAO results are just one of the ways we see how York Catholic is leading the province in educational achievement. As a Catholic learning community, we want to see every child succeed and EQAO results help us measure our progress toward that noble goal.”

Overall, the percentage of students who participated from YCDSB in Grade 3 and 6 EQAO were 97% and 98%, respectively. For Grade 9 Math assessment there were 93% of eligible students and 97% in the OSSLT.
