A groundbreaking peer-reviewed study has provided the most comprehensive evidence to date that COVID-19 vaccines are to blame for skyrocketing excess deaths around the world in recent years.

Published in the journal Science, Public Health Policy, and the Law, the study, titled A Systematic Review of Autopsy Findings in Deaths After COVID-19 Vaccination, analyzed autopsy results and concluded that 73% of deaths following vaccination were likely caused by the vaccines.

This research, the largest COVID-19 vaccine autopsy study so far, is calling for immediate action. The authors urge the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to issue a Class I recall of the COVID-19 vaccines—a designation reserved for products that pose a serious risk of adverse health consequences or death.

Cardiovascular system is most affected by the vaccines, followed by the hematological and respiratory systems.

“Our study indicates that the COVID-19 injectable products must undergo an immediate Class I recall by the FDA to protect public safety,” said co-author Steve Kirsch.

“The U.S. Food and Drug Administration defines a Class I recall as: “A situation in which there is a reasonable probability that the use of or exposure to a violative product will cause serious adverse health consequences or death.”

Here is what the study found:

Background: The rapid development of COVID-19 vaccines, combined with a high number of adverse event reports, have led to concerns over possible mechanisms of injury including systemic lipid nanoparticle (LNP) and mRNA distribution, Spike protein-associated tissue damage, thrombogenicity, immune system dysfunction, and carcinogenicity. The aim of this systematic review is to investigate possible causal links between COVID-19 vaccine administration and death using autopsies and post-mortem analysis.

Methods: We searched PubMed and ScienceDirect for all published autopsy and organ-restricted autopsy reports relating to COVID-19 vaccination up until May 18^th, 2023. All autopsy and organ-restricted autopsy studies that included COVID-19 vaccination as an antecedent exposure were included. Because the state of knowledge has advanced since the time of the original publications, three physicians independently reviewed each case and adjudicated whether or not COVID-19 vaccination was the direct cause or contributed significantly to death.

Results: We initially identified 678 studies and, after screening for our inclusion criteria, included 44 papers that contained 325 autopsy cases and one organ-restricted autopsy case (heart). The mean age of death was 70.4 years. The most implicated organ system among cases was the cardiovascular (49%), followed by hematological (17%), respiratory (11%), and multiple organ systems (7%). Three or more organ systems were affected in 21 cases. The mean time from vaccination to death was 14.3 days. Most deaths occurred within a week from last vaccine administration. A total of 240 deaths (73.9%) were independently adjudicated as directly due to or significantly contributed to by COVID-19 vaccination, of which the primary causes of death include sudden cardiac death (35%), pulmonary embolism (12.5%), myocardial infarction (12%), VITT (7.9%), myocarditis (7.1%), multisystem inflammatory syndrome (4.6%), and cerebral hemorrhage (3.8%).

Conclusions: The consistency seen among cases in this review with known COVID-19 vaccine mechanisms of injury and death, coupled with autopsy confirmation by physician adjudication, suggests there is a high likelihood of a causal link between COVID-19 vaccines and death. Further urgent investigation is required for the purpose of clarifying our findings. 

The study’s findings come after significant challenges, including alleged censorship. Initially published on Preprints with The Lancet in July 2023, the paper was removed within 24 hours despite meeting the platform’s screening criteria. Critics of the removal claim the decision was influenced by the paper’s controversial findings.

The study faced a second roadblock when it was published in Forensic Science International by Elsevier, only to be retracted shortly after. Both instances raised concerns about bias and suppression of scientific data that challenges the safety of mRNA vaccines.

“These repeated efforts to silence our research demonstrate a troubling pattern of censorship,” said Kirsch. “The public deserves transparency, especially when it concerns matters of life and death.”
