Trump’s ‘Warp Speed’ U-Turn

It appears that RFK Jr. has been in President Trump’s ear about the mRNA COVID vaccines.

Since Trump initiated Operation Warp Speed, he has often stated the vaccines are an achievement which saved millions of lives.

But suddenly, his tune is changing. POTUS recently posted the following on Truth Social:

It is very important that the Drug Companies justify the success of their various Covid Drugs. Many people think they are a miracle that saved Millions of lives. Others disagree! With CDC being ripped apart over this question, I want the answer, and I want it NOW. I have been shown information from Pfizer, and others, that is extraordinary, but they never seem to show those results to the public. Why not???

…They show me GREAT numbers and results, but they don’t seem to be showing them to many others. I want them to show them NOW, to CDC and the public, and clear up this MESS, one way or the other!!! I hope OPERATION WARP SPEED was as “BRILLIANT” as many say it was. If not, we all want to know about it, and why???

It is noteworthy that he called Pfizer and Moderna’s mRNA products “drugs”, as opposed to “vaccines”. Also worth noting is that fact that POTUS implies he may have been deceived by the drug companies.

Peter Navarro, Senior Counselor to President Trump, went even further in a recent interview:

“Trump got lied to… not just by Fauci but by Pfizer … They didn’t disclose the side effects of that [COVID vaccine] and they weren’t clear with him. They made him think that it was a true vaccine, when it’s not. It’s mRNA technology.”

Clearly, something has changed.

Today we’ll dig into what it all means, and whether mRNA technology has a future or not.

Misleading Studies

During the lockdowns, I went way down the rabbit hole on these mRNA “vaccines”. I came to believe the studies that showed their effectiveness were misleading, at best.

One example is that in many studies, researchers made deceptive group classifications. For example, in one CDC study on vaccine effectiveness, they broke down the groups into 3 categories. Unvaccinated, partially vaccinated, and fully vaccinated.

The problem is, the “unvaccinated” group included people who got their first dose for a two week period. So any infections that occurred in the two weeks following injection #1 were classified as “unvaccinated”. The exact wording says that persons were considered unvaccinated “<14 days after receipt of the first dose of a 2-dose series.”

So for the first two weeks after injection, those patients were considered unvaccinated. If they got COVID in that time, which was a frequent occurrence due to the way mRNA vaccines work, it was recorded as an unvaccinated case, despite the fact that they had received their first dose.

Now let’s apply that same logic to studies on side effects. In some cases, injuries up to 14 days after each injection were classified as “unvaccinated”! Imagine someone getting a serious side effect from a vaccine 10 days after injection, and it being classified as if they were unvaccinated. Ridiculous!

And this is just one example of the ways in which the world was lied to about these drugs.

Now we can begin to see why Trump feels like he was misled. The effectiveness and safety of the mRNA products were exaggerated, at best.

A Difficult Conversation

Many of us know people who believe they were injured by these products. In my case, one friend got myocarditis, another was diagnosed with a serious autoimmune condition. Both are certain these conditions were caused by their vaccinations. And those are just two examples among quite a few more. Most people I know have stories like this.

We were told these drugs would bring an end to the pandemic and lockdowns. Many were forced to take them to keep their job, or attend school. So it’s a difficult conversation to have.

Around the world, around 2/3rds of the global population took a COVID vaccine. In China, India, and Russia mRNA vaccines from Pfizer and Moderna only made up a tiny percentage of doses given. But in the rest of the world, these novel products got a majority of market share.

Despite the awkward nature of this discussion, I applaud Trump for changing his mind. It’s not easy to do with so much on the line. I know RFK Jr. isn’t popular with everyone, but I believe the changes he is bringing about in the HHS, FDA, and CDC will be very positive for the country over the long run.

Cleary, our healthcare system is broken and needs dramatic change. The fact that mRNA vaccines are finally getting the scrutiny they deserve is encouraging.

I wish it didn’t take so long to happen, but it’s a very good thing that it finally is.

After at least a hundred hours studying these mRNA products, I am convinced that if Trump and RFK Jr. conduct a full unbiased investigation, this tech will be shelved indefinitely. So, no, I wouldn’t “buy the dip” on Pfizer or Moderna.

Even if the technology itself does have promise, after what will be revealed from a full investigation, it will be hard to get the public to ever trust it again.
