Will we all soon be indirectly vaccinated by eating meat?
In France, a self-amplifying mRNA vaccine is now being used in the factory farming of ducks.
Helene Banoun (@BanounHelene) has published an important article on the subject: https://tinyurl.com/285hwx6u

- "The CEVA vaccine is a self-amplifying mRNA encoding H5 of H5N8 coated in ferric nanoparticles, and contains squalene (suspected of toxicity in humans)."

- "When ducks are vaccinated with CEVA's self-amplifying mRNA product, it must be emphasized that no tests have been carried out on the ability of this gene product to be transmitted to the duck meat consumer."

Increased risk of ischemic stroke within 1-42 days after the coadministration of the Pfizer-BioNTech bivalent COVID-19 vaccine and influenza vaccine:
https://publichealth.jmir.org/2024/1/e53807

"The potential association between bivalent vaccination and ischemic stroke in the 1-42–day analysis warrants further investigation among individuals younger than 65 years with influenza vaccine coadministration and prior SARS-CoV-2 infection. Furthermore, the findings on ischemic stroke risk after bivalent COVID-19 vaccination underscore the need to evaluate monovalent COVID-19 vaccine safety during the 2023-2024 season."

"Activation and differentiation of T cells into effector cells are thought to rely on three signals received from antigen-presenting cells (APCs), such as dendritic cells (DCs). The first signal is in the form of peptide-MHC, the second signal is membrane-bound co-stimulation, and the third signal is in the form of soluble cytokines. If the T cells receive the third signal before the first one, it is called out-of-sequence stimulation, which can lead to the T cells’ death or render them anergic and non-responsive (136, 137). Exposure to mRNA-LNP or LNP leads to a rapid release of inflammatory cytokines (12), including type I interferons (7) that are known to induce out-of-sequence stimulation, which likely exposes the adaptive immune cells, including the T cells, to an inflammatory environment before the mRNA is translated into protein and presented on DCs. Thus, with a high likelihood, one of the potential flaws of the mRNA-LNP platform, unlike the old-school vaccines where the antigen presentation and inflammation coincide, is that it exposes the adaptive immune cells to an out-of-sequence stimulation, which might worsen upon further exposure."

Another mechanism by which the COVID-19 vaccines can lead to a systemic weakening of the immune system: https://www.frontiersin.org/journals/immunology/articles/10.3389/fimmu.2024.1336906/full
An "out-of-sequence stimulation" is triggered.

- "... these data suggest that the inflammatory environment created by the LNPs is detrimental to naïve T cells."

"... the observed changes were likely systemic since the direct draining organs, the skin-draining lymph nodes, and the distant spleen showed similar trends."

"These data align with our previous findings that exposure to mRNA-LNP or LNP leads to systemic inhibition of adaptive immune responses."

"... it exposes the adaptive immune cells to an out-of-sequence stimulation, which might worsen upon further exposure."

In Germany, there is now a laboratory where you can get tested to see if you have components of the mRNA vaccine in your body (blood, tissue samples, etc.).
-> https://inmodia.de/en/

The Institute of Molecular Diagnostics (INMODIA GmbH) offers detection of:
- Spike protein
- ‘Vaccine mRNA’ (modRNA)
- Contaminating DNA (plasmid DNA)
These components can be detected in the following sample materials:
- Tissue samples (biopsy or autopsy materials, fixed or unfixed)
- Blood plasma
- Cerebrospinal fluid
- Immune cells from whole blood or cerebrospinal fluid

It's great that a service like this is now available!
I expect that many more such laboratories will be opened worldwide in the near future, or that existing laboratories will start offering these services...

Systematic studies are now needed to investigate these large clots using ThT-based fluorescence microscopy and, ideally, staining of NETs, as well as quantification of the amyloid fibrin microclot concentration (and size distribution) in plasma.
This would actually be a topic for a @Nature or @ScienceMagazine paper – which research group dares to tackle this hot and difficult topic?
For an earlier analysis of these clots, see my older post: https://x.com/DrJohnB2/status/1807188321665212922

The fact that these clots stain positive for ThT is not good news, as it indicates that these clots are special and cannot be easily dissolved by the body through fibrolysis.
Presumably, these clots are also full of neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs), as has already been shown for amyloid-fibrin microclots (which are probably the smaller form of these macroclots) [1]:

Varicella zoster reactivation after COVID-19 vaccination:

"This case highlights the importance of considering varicella zoster reactivation in a patient presenting with encephalitis or pneumonia post SARS-CoV-2 vaccination, especially considering the mortality and morbidity associated with these manifestations, if not promptly treated."

New study:
Blood distribution of SARS-CoV-2 lipid nanoparticle mRNA vaccine in humans
-> https://www.medrxiv.org/content/10.1101/2024.07.25.24311039v1
- "Taken together, our results suggest vaccine mRNA
lipid nanoparticles recirculate for up to 1 month post-vaccination." (!)
- "... mRNA lipid nanoparticles remain intact and travel from injection sites or lymph nodes into blood stream within 4 hours post-vaccination."
- "The rapid dissemination of mRNA lipid nanoparticles in blood found in our study is consistent with the recent findings on the detection of mRNA in breast milk at 3–45 hours post-vaccination."
-"The proteins and lipids bind to mRNA lipid nanoparticles in either lymph or plasma, forming so called “biomolecular corona", which could influence uptake and immunogenicity of the vaccines."

(13/n)
Interestingly, the SARS-CoV-2 spike arginylglycylaspartic acid (RGD) motif (i.e. the arginine/glycine/aspartic acid amino acid sequence) is similar to that of VN. The RGD motif enables binding to ingerins. (Note: all coronavirus predecessors lack the RGD motif, i.e. it is a specific feature of SARS-CoV-2. SARS-CoV-2 binds to ACE2 and to αVβ3).
The integrin αVβ3 is highly expressed in the endothelium and the SARS-CoV-2 protein has been shown to be able to bind to it [1]. Binding to this ingerin in the epithelium triggers significant endothelial dysregulation, resulting in loss of barrier integrity.
The αvβ3 integrin is also a vitronectin receptor [2], promotes VN gene expression [3] and mediates platelet/endothelium adhesion [4].
Activated integrin αvβ3 in combination with fibronectin also promotes clot invasion and metastasis [5].
