People’s Vaccine Inquiry launches

The People’s Vaccine Inquiry, launched on June 10 2024, features submissions from CCVAC lead Dr Ros Jones, along with other expert witnesses.

The official website for the Inquiry, where you can read the statements and watch video testimony, is below.

Dr Ros Jones, letter

Liz Truss: you have all the information, and no excuses

After nearly two-years of censorship, defamation and denial-of-access by the establishment, the Children’s Covid Vaccine Advisory Group was at last granted access to 10 Downing Street to present their case against the Covid vaccination of children to the British Prime Minister.

On Tuesday morning, a delegation led by Dr Ros Jones, the retired paediatrician who has been on the front-line of protecting children from establishment group-think, knocked on the door of Number 10 and handed a letter, co-signed by all members of the CCVAC and hundreds more British health professionals, calling for an end to the “avoidable damage” being done to our children as a result of the mRNA Covid vaccines, as well as harmful restrictions in schools.

The open letter published here, references leading studies from across the world – information that the CCVAC has delivered on several occasions to the UK’s health authorities, rarely receiving an acknowledgement and never a response.

In February, Dr Ros Jones was physically prevented from delivering a similar letter to the headquarters of the UK’s sinister Health Security Agency, despite having a pre-arranged meeting to do so.

However in recent months, the catastrophe of the mass roll-out of the covid vaccine to young people has apparently become too great even for its architects to ignore.

On the same day the CCVAC delivered their letter, across the Atlantic a member of the US Federal Drug Administration said that young people should not take the latest Covid drugs, since they had only ever been tested on mice. Here’s what Dr Paul Offit said:

“When you are asking people to get a vaccine, I think there has to be clear evidence of benefit…. You’d like to have, at least, human data. Right now they’re saying we should trust mouse data and I don’t think that should ever be true.”

But the dangers have been known for much longer. On the very day, back in February, when the UK’s vaccine ‘offer’ was made to children as young as five, the government revealed that some 1,200 Britons had suffered heart damage from the vaccine. As the international data clearly shows, the risk of such heart damage is inversely correlated with age: in other words, those least at risk to the virus (in fact, statistically zero risk) are most at risk to the vaccine. So the vaccine was known to pose a disproportionate risk to children when they ‘offered’ it.

Then earlier this month, in its ‘Green book’ of guidance that the government issues to civil servants in its employ (yes, that means your doctor), it quietly changed its position, removing the ‘offer’ for 5-11 year olds.

This major change in policy was not accompanied by an announcement, statement or press release. In the dry guidance, this ‘offer’, which had been aggressively marketed to all parents of young children, was suddenly re-caste as a ‘one-off’ and ‘non-urgent’ offer that, in light of the ‘extremely low risk’ of Covid for children, was now being rescinded.

Watch the full interview

Speaking on GB News after the submission, Dr Jones said:

“The problem is that politicians won’t just be honest about it.

“At least in Denmark, [the spokesman] said ‘if I had known what I know now, I never would have recommended it’ and that’s what we need Liz Truss to do.

“Otherwise there are all these other mRNA vaccines waiting up the road, [including] a new flu vaccine, using this technology, which has been so disastrous, and far less safe than previous standard vaccines.”

Letter to Liz Truss from the CCVAC

26th September, 2022

The Rt Hon Liz Truss

The Prime Minister
10, Downing Street,
London, SW1A 2AA 

Dear Ms Truss,

Re: Covid-19 Vaccines for Children

Firstly, congratulations on becoming our new Prime Minister.

You will no doubt have many pressing matters as you take up office.  But what can be more important than the health and well-being of the nation’s children? 

We, the undersigned health professionals and scientists, have huge concerns about the safety and necessity of Covid-19 vaccines for children, for reasons detailed in the letters enclosed. Between us, we have written numerous letters to the regulators, copied to your predecessor, regarding use of these mRNA products in children.  We call upon you, urgently, to pause the Covid-19 vaccine rollout for healthy under 18s, while a thorough and independent safety review is undertaken.  We urge you to reconsider their deployment for the following reasons:

  • Covid-19 was always a much milder illness in children, with a risk of death for otherwise healthy children of around 1 in 2 million. Successive variants have become less virulent, reducing the risk still further.
  • In addition, there is considerable evidence of rapidly waning vaccine efficacy, and increasing concerns over immediate vaccines injuries (such as myocarditis with its known potential for severe and possibly permanent cardiac damage). 
  • There is still a total lack of long-term safety data and the worrying rise in excess non-Covid deaths[1] in young males aged 15-19 years has yet to be explained. 
  • Lastly, the vast majority of children have already been exposed to SARS-CoV-2 repeatedly and have achieved demonstrably effective immunity, which is far superior to vaccine-induced immunity.

In short, the balance of benefit and risk, used to support the rollout of mRNA vaccines to the elderly and vulnerable in 2021, is inappropriate and inapplicable for children in 2022. 

Below are links to all the fully referenced letters we have written to the MHRA, the JCVI and the CMOs over the past sixteen months. The detailed questions posed have never been properly addressed by these regulators. You may be aware that members of the Pandemic Response All Party Parliamentary Group also wrote to the JCVI in January 2022, regarding the documented increase in all-cause mortality in 15-19-year-old males, again with no satisfactory reply addressing their concerns.

Groups of health professionals from around the world have similar concerns and indeed some countries have already paused children’s Covid-19 vaccines, particularly for those who have already had SARS-CoV-2 infection.  The Danish Minister of Health recently declared that vaccinating children had been a mistake and has withdrawn it for healthy children. It is gratifying to see that in the UK the vaccine rollout for healthy 5-11s has been discontinued last week, but this leaves 12-17-years-olds still in an unnecessary programme.

The health of the nation’s children is of paramount concern and must surely be a high priority for an incoming Prime Minister. You will no doubt be aware of Sir Christopher Chope’s tireless work on a Covid-19 Vaccine Damage Bill,pushing for proper and fair compensation for thousands of vaccine-damaged adults.  You cannot allow the risk of Covid-19 vaccine injuries in children, who stand to gain zero benefit from vaccination due to the overwhelming majority having already been infected, and who have therefore already acquired natural immunity.

We entreat you to apply the precautionary principle to the use of these products, which still have no long-term safety data and remain in Phase 3 clinical trials. The evidence of damage that this rushed policy is causing for children mounts daily. 

In addition to concerns about the physical risk to children posed by these mRNA products, we would also remind you of the acknowledged and significant psychological and educational damage to children which resulted from the school closures and masking requirements implemented by your predecessor.  We would ask that, as a matter of urgency, you make clear that school closures and masking of schoolchildren will not be repeated under your watch. 

At the beginning of your term as Prime Minister, you have a critical opportunity to prevent avoidable damage to children, and the inevitable outcry and backlash that will follow, by pausing the rollout with immediate effect, as well as bringing to an end all harmful covid restrictions in schools. This is a risk-free action.  Until then, the political and health risks of these damaging policies will only escalate. 

We eagerly await your response. 

Wishing you well in the challenging job you have ahead.

Yours sincerely,

Dr Rosamond Jones, MBBS, MD, FRCPCH, retired consultant paediatrician,

[1] Updated analysis of deaths in males 15-19 years of age – HART (hartgroup.org)

Letter to UK health authorities, re: 6 month to 4 years Covid vaccines

Dr June Raine, CEO MHRA
Professor Lim Wei Shen, Chairman JCVI COVID-19 vaccines sub-committee
Professor Chris Whitty, Chief Medical Officer
Dr Jenny Harries, CEO, UKHSA
Hon.Sajid Javid, MP, Secretary of State for Health & Social Care

30th June 2022

Dear Dr Raine,

Re: Covid-19 vaccines for 6 months to 4 years age group

We are writing to you urgently concerning the announcement that the FDA has granted an Emergency Use Authorisation for both Pfizer and Moderna Covid-19 vaccines in preschool children.

We would urge you to consider very carefully the move to vaccinate ever younger and younger children against SARS-CoV-2, despite the gradual but significant reducing virulence of successive variants, the increasing evidence of rapidly waning vaccine efficacy, the increasing concerns over long-term vaccine harms, and the knowledge that the vast majority of this young age group have already been exposed to SARS-CoV-2 repeatedly and have demonstrably effective immunity. Thus, the balance of benefit and risk which supported the rollout of mRNA vaccines to the elderly and vulnerable in 2021, is totally inappropriate for small children in 2022. 

We also strongly challenge the addition of Covid-19 vaccination into the routine child immunisation programme,[i]despite no demonstrated clinical need, known and unknown risks (see below) and the fact that these vaccines still have only conditional marketing authorisation.

It is noteworthy that the Pfizer documentation[ii] presented to the FDA has huge gaps in the evidence provided: 

  • The protocol was changed mid-trial. The original 2-dose schedule exhibited poor immunogenicity with efficacy far below the required standard. A third dose was added by which time many of the original placebo recipients had been vaccinated.  
  • There was no statistically significant difference between the placebo and vaccinated groups in either the 6–23-month age group or the 2-4-year-olds even after the third dose. Astonishingly the results were based on just three participants in the younger age group (1 vaccinated and 2 placebo) and just seven participants in the older 2–4-year-olds (2 vaccinated and 5 placebo).   Indeed, for the younger age the confidence intervals ranged from minus 367% to plus 99%. The manufacturer stated that the numbers were too low to draw any confident conclusions. Moreover, these limited numbers come only from children infected more than 7 days after the third dose. 
  • Over the whole time period from the first dose onwards (see page 39 Tables 19 & 20), there were a total of 225 infected children in the vaccinated arm and 150 in the placebo arm, giving a calculated vaccine efficacy of only 25% (14% for the 6-23 months, and 33% for 2-4s).  
  • The additional immunogenicity studies against Omicron, requested by the FDA, only involved a total of 66 children tested one month after the third dose (see page 35).   

It is incomprehensible that the FDA considered that this represents sufficient evidence on which to base a decision to vaccinate healthy children.  When it comes to safety, the data is even thinner: only 1057 children, some already unblinded, were followed for just 2 months. It is noteworthy that Sweden and Norway are not recommending the vaccine for 5-11s and Holland is not recommending it for children who have already had Covid-19. The director of the Danish Health and Medicines Authority stated recently that with what is now known, the decision to vaccinate children was a mistake.[iii]

We summarise below the overwhelming arguments against this vaccination.

A.  Extremely low risk from Covid-19 to young children

  • In the whole of 2020 and 2021, not a single child aged 1-9 died where Covid-19 was the sole diagnosis on the death certificate, according to ONS data.[iv]
  • A detailed study in England from 1st March 2020 to 1st March 2021 found only 6 children under 18 years died with no comorbidities. There were no deaths aged 1-4 years.[v]
  • Children clear the virus more easily than adults.[vi]
  • Children mount effective, robust, and sustained immune responses.[vii]
  • Since the arrival of the Omicron variant, infections have been generally much milder. That is also true for unvaccinated under 5s.[viii]
  • By June 2022 it is now estimated that 89% of 1-4-year-olds had already had SARS-CoV-2 infection.[ix]
  • Recent data from Israel shows excellent long-lasting immunity following infection in children, especially in 5-11s.[x]

B.  Poor vaccine efficacy 

  • In adults it has become apparent that vaccine efficacy wanes steadily over time, necessitating boosters at regular intervals. Specifically, vaccine efficacy has waned more rapidly against the latest Omicron variants. 
  • In children vaccine efficacy has waned more rapidly in 5-11s than in 12-17s, possibly related to the lower dose used in the paediatric formulation. One study from New York showed efficacy against Omicron falling to only 12% by 4-5 weeks and to negative values by 5-6 weeks post second dose.[xi] 
  • In the Pfizer 0-4s trial,1 the efficacy after two doses fell to negative values, necessitating a change to the trial protocol. After a third dose there was a suggestion of efficacy from 7-30 days but there is no data beyond 30 days to see how quickly this will wane. 

C. Potential harms of Covid-19 vaccines for children

  • There has been great concern about myocarditis in adolescents and young adults, especially in males after the second dose, estimated at 1/2600 in active post marketing surveillance in Hong Kong.[xii] The emerging evidence of persistent cardiac abnormalities[xiii] in adolescents with post mRNA vaccine myopericarditis, as demonstrated by cardiac MRI at 3-8 months follow up, suggests this is far from ‘mild and shot-lived’.  The potential for longer term effects requires further study and calls for the strictest application of the precautionary principle in respect of the youngest and most vulnerable children.
  • Although post-vaccination myocarditis appears to be less common in 5-11-year-olds than older children, it is, none-the-less, increased over baseline.[xiv] 
  • In the Pfizer study 50% of vaccinated children had systemic adverse events, including irritability and fever. Diagnosis of myocarditis is much more difficult in younger children.[xv]  No troponin levels or ECG studies were documented. Even a vaccinated child in the trial, hospitalised with fever, calf pain and a raised CPK, had no report of D-dimers, antiplatelet antibodies or troponin levels.
  • In Pfizer’s 5-11s post-authorisation conditions, they are required to conduct studies looking for myocarditis and are not due to report results until 2027.
  • Of equal concern are, as yet unknown, negative effects on the immune system. In the 0-4s trial, only 7 children were described as having ‘severe’ Covid-19 – 6 vaccinated and 1 given placebo. Similarly, for the 12 children with recurrent episodes of infection, 10 were vaccinated against only 2 who received placebo. These are all tiny figures and much too small to rule out any adverse impact such as antibody dependant enhancement (ADE)[xvi]  and other impacts on the immune system.
  • Also unanswered is the question of Original Antigenic Sin.[xvii]  It is of note that in a large Israeli study, those infected after vaccination had poorer cover than those vaccinated after infection.[xviii]  In the Moderna trial, N antibodies were seen in only 40% of those infected after vaccination, compared to 93% of those infected after placebo.[xix] 
  • There is evidence of vaccine-induced disruption of both innate and adaptive[xx],[xxi] immune responses. The possibility of developing an impaired immune function would be disastrous for children, who have the most competent innate immunity, which by now has been effectively trained by the circulating virus.
  • Totally unknown is whether there will be any adverse effect on T-cell function leading to an increase in cancers.[xxii] 
  • Also, in terms of reproductive function, limited animal biodistribution studies showed lipid nanoparticles concentrate in ovaries and testes.[xxiii]  Adult sperm donors have showed a reduction in sperm counts particularly of motile sperm, falling by 3 months post-vaccination and remaining depressed at 4-5 months.[xxiv] 
  • Even for adults, concerns are rising that serious adverse events are in excess of hospitalisations from Covid-19.[xxv]

D. Informed consent

  • For 5-11s, the JCVI, in recommending a ‘non-urgent offer’ of vaccination, specifically noted the importance of fully informed consent with no coercion.[xxvi]
  • With the low uptake in this age group, the presence of ‘therapy dogs’,[xxvii] advertisements including superhero images[xxviii] and information about child vaccination protecting friends and family, all clearly run contrary to the concept of consent, fully informed and freely given.[xxix] 
  • The complete omission of information explaining to the public the different and novel technology used in Covid-19 vaccines compared to standard vaccines, and the failure to inform of the lack of any long-term safety data, borders on misinformation.[xxx]

E. Effect on public confidence 

  • Vaccines against much more serious diseases, such as polio and measles, need to be prioritised.[xxxi]  Pushing an unnecessary and novel, gene-based vaccine onto young children risks seriously undermining parental confidence in the whole immunisation programme. 
  • The poor quality of the data presented by Pfizer risks bringing the pharmaceutical industry into disrepute and the regulators if this product is authorised.

In summary, young healthy children are at minimal risk from Covid-19, especially since the arrival of the Omicron variant.  Most have been repeatedly exposed to SARS-CoV-2 virus, yet have remained well, or have had short, mild illness. As detailed above, the vaccines are of brief efficacy, have known short- to medium-term risks and unknown long-term safety. Data for clinically useful efficacy in small children are scant or absent.  In older children, for whom they are already licensed, they have been promoted via ethically dubious schemes to the potential detriment of other, and vital, parts of the childhood vaccination programme.

For a tiny minority of children for whom the potential for benefit clearly and unequivocally outweighed the potential for harm, vaccination could have been facilitated by restrictive licences.  Whether following the precautionary principle or the instruction to First Do No Harm, such vaccines have no place in a routine childhood immunisation programme.

It has never been so easy to save a child’s life. Act now

The vaccinators are in our schools. The time to act is right now. You can do three things right now.

  1. Inform headteachers of ongoing legal challenge

It’s not been covered in the media, but the law courts have put a huge dent in the government’s child vaccination plans and undermined its ethical basis. 

At a high court hearing in early October, an injunction was sought to pause the mass rollout of Covid vaccinations for healthy children aged between 12 to 16 years.

High Court judge, Mr Justice Jay, accepted that there was sufficient evidence to demonstrate that the mass vaccination of healthy children may be unlawful. 

Since the jabs don’t prevent infection or transmission, the government bench failed to offer any rational or plausible basis for the policy. However, given the political shock that stopping the roll out would cause, they have been granted 11 days to prepare better evidence. In the meantime, most Britain’s school children will be offered the chance to irreversibly join this dangerous and unnecessary experiment. 

Safer to wait have written this letter that you can send to the head teachers in your area, explaining their moral and legal liability in the face of this development. Download it, sign and send:  

https://t.co/17z9RUduWq?amp=1

2. NHS style consent form – leaflet drop

We have been sent this excellent consent form which you can print out and distribute in your local area.

Children are being vaccinated now, and they are under great peer and authoritative pressure. They need something in their hands to use as a last line of defence. This could be it. 

3. Cover letter

If you wish, you could use this cover letter to provide some context and further information about the risks and supposed benefits of child vaccination.

https://docs.google.com/document/d/e/2PACX-1vSNGHZTuSd6c_EeqNTzHNquiSXr7eEyQaiALKYWteOHhTdPeRpDdX1MmIsyStvqzdTxC3Vh1Wx5CqWm/pub

The message

If you are going to be active, you may be put on the spot, and asked why you don’t think children should be vaccinated.

There are so many reasons not to vaccinate children it can be difficult to know where to begin in the heat of the moment.

Our analysis of people’s motivations suggests that emphasising people’s personal risk is not effective on its own. It must be couple with the fact that the jab will not actually do any good, since they were not designed to prevent transmission.

The pharmaceutical companies have tried to fudge this by advertising relative risk reductions of 99%. However, the standard measure of efficacy is absolute risk reduction, and these are so small as to be within the margin of statistical error.

In other words, there is no discernible benefit.

The cruellest thing a child could do to their parents is to risk their life, completely unnecessarily.

I would like to thank you all in advance. We can’t save everyone. So work on that basis that you can prevent one family from having their lives shattered.

Good luck.

The Children’s Union is fighting back. Join us

In British public discourse and political decision-making, children have been forgotten.

Policies that directly impact on their welfare have treated them as expendable. In national politics, they have become less than an after-thought; their welfare wilfully sacrificed, time and again – increasingly without the slightest pretence of consideration or concern.

The Children’s Union says enough.

We have a single mission: to defend the interests of children to those wielding power.

We will entertain no other agenda, whether political, financial or personal. The welfare of all children will be our sole concern, and in their interests will we hold society’s leaders to account.

An advanced and wealthy nation such as the UK should be a wonderful place for a child to grow up. Instead, our children face a daily diet of unchecked corporate predation, ideological instruction, uncontextualized totalitarian rule-making, along with an actual diet of ultra-processed, addictive foods. We are deploying the full force and ingenuity of our scientifically advanced age against our children.

The nature of these threats are unlike any that parents have faced before, or that any parent is equipped to tackle alone. They pervade every aspect of a child’s life and are highly technological, ubiquitous (often without a realistic substitute), top-down and, increasingly, mandated. No adult or guardian has a chance of defending children against this onslaught, this amoral, technocratic construct designed to exploit them.

The Children’s Union will fight this systematic predation, neglect and exploitation head-on.

We will argue the case for children in a reasoned way, with reference to evidence where it is available, and logic where it is not.

We will leverage the knowledge of child-experts across disciplines, from developmental psychology and paediatrics, through to data science and pedagogy, and we will depend on the active participation and contribution of all adults in society who care about our children and who want that message to ring unmistakably and deafeningly through the corridors of power.

We are here to make a big difference, and with your help, that is what we will do.
