Last month, I reported that a large, multinational study of COVID-19 vaccines from companies like Pfizer, Moderna, and AstraZeneca has been linked to rare occurrences of heart, brain, and blood disorders. At this point, most rational health professionals would allow an individual to decide if the risk of heart, brain, and blood disorders outweigh the risk of experiencing COVID without the vaccine in any of its mutations and variations.
However, that study was only one of many that have been done to assess the COVID-19 vaccine side effects. Another project was proposed by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, Myocarditis Outcomes after mRNA COVID-19 Vaccination Investigation (MOVING) in October 2021.
As a reminder, myocarditis is inflammation of the heart muscle, and pericarditis is inflammation of the lining around the heart. The agency has already released some reports, such as this one in The Lancet, which asserted that virus-caused myocarditis was worse than the one that arose post-vaccination.
Myocarditis after mRNA COVID-19 vaccination is rare yet potentially serious, and although most patients were considered recovered by health-care providers at least 90 days since onset, nearly half of patients continued to self-report symptoms, including chest pain, and a quarter were prescribed daily cardiac medications.These findings suggest that continued follow-up and assessment of myocarditis after mRNA COVID-19 vaccination is needed to more fully understand recovery after vaccine-associated myocarditis.From a clinical standpoint, our findings suggest that myocarditis after mRNA COVID-19 vaccination could have a more favourable prognosis than myocarditis after viral infection, based on data available from the pre-COVID-19 period.
However, that same month, Florida’s Surgeon General Joseph A. Ladapo issued a warning to young men receiving covid vaccines, based on an analysis by the state’s health department that indicated they pose an “increased risk” of cardiac-related death.
“Today, we released an analysis on COVID-19 mRNA vaccines the public needs to be aware of. This analysis showed an increased risk of cardiac-related death among men 18-39. FL will not be silent on the truth,” Ladapo tweeted.
Clearly, the CDC has been collecting data on this matter since 2021. One intrepid investigator, Epoch Times reporter Zachary Stieber, decided to collect that information using a Freedom of Information Act request. Steiber would likely have crunched the numbers (or had a trusted scientist review the data) and published the findings to clarify who was correct: The CDC or the Florida Surgeon General.
Streiber got an eyeful…in the form of 148 redacted pages.

Traditionally, when science is practiced correctly, the scientist publishes the raw data (or makes that data available to the inquisitive) and is ready to address alternative theories and accept corrections when appropriate. Being funded by the taxpayer, the CDC means they collected that data on our behalf. This information is a matter of public health…not some sort of national security secret for which substantial redaction would be appropriate.
The manipulation of FOIA rules has been noted:
Dr. Jay Bhattacharya, a Stanford medical school professor who has advised DeSantis on COVID policy, sarcastically posted in response to Steiber, “I hear b(5) redactions are all the rage these days. Besides, there are just some things the public shouldn’t know.”As the conservative website Twitchy explained, a Freedom of Information Act b(5) exemption allows the government to redact “privileged” information as it relates to the internal discussion of legal matters. “In other words,” Twitchy posted, “it allows the CDC to redact almost EVERYTHING.”Bhattacharya predicted the Biden CDC’s secret would not remain secret for long.“Many good journalists and media organizations are trying to get documents,” he added on X. “This information will eventually come out. It’s not top secret.”
Bhattacharya was one of the authors of the Great Barrington Declaration, who opposed the lockdowns and advocated for sensible covid policies. He argued that Covid lockdowns would harm children, then Twitter secretly placed him on a “Trends Blacklist,” which prevented his tweets from trending.
One last note: The UK Health Security Agency (UKHSA) announced last week that children under the age of 12 will no longer be offered covid vaccines unless the children are deemed high risk. This news further proves that the American public has a right to see the data and allow researchers not connected to Big Pharma or Big Government to evaluate the findings and provide their own conclusions.
Trust in science is already at an all-time low. Our public health agencies ignoring FOIA requests will not help bring it back.
