Cradle-to-Grave Vaccines + COVID Shots and Air Safety: ‘This Week’ With Mary + Polly

In “This Week” with Mary Holland, Children’s Health Defense president-on-leave, and Polly Tommey, CHD.TV programming manager, Mary and Polly discuss the latest news on COVID-19 vaccines and other issues.

This week, Mary Holland, Children’s Health Defense (CHD) president-on-leave, and Polly Tommey, CHD.TV programming manager, covered the latest headlines on COVID-19, Big Pharma and other issues, including news that in the U.S., COVID-19 vaccines injured 26.6 million people, disabled 1.36 million people, caused more than 300,000 excess deaths and cost the economy an estimated $147 billion in damage — in 2022 alone.

Polly and Mary also discussed that a Manitoba family is suing AstraZeneca Canada, alleging their son had a stroke following COVID-19 vaccination that has left him unable to work or care for himself.

Plus, McDonald’s and “public health” don’t even belong in the same sentence, but this didn’t stop the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services from enlisting the fast food giant to promote its COVID-19 public health education campaign.

Also on tap this week: The lawsuit against Janine A. Rethy, M.D., M.P.H., the pediatrician who vaccinated two adolescent children without the mother’s consent, serves as an example of how the medical community has lost its bearings when it comes to the concepts of informed consent and “First, do no harm.”

More of this week’s highlights:

  • In a “stupid ad” AVAC, the Adult Vaccine Access Coalition, talks about the power that vaccines play in strengthening the economy. “They are really trying to make sure that vaccines are cradle to grave,” said Mary.
  • The U.S. is alone among developed countries in continuing to demand proof of COVID-19 vaccination from visitors. “It just does not make any sense,” said Polly.
  • A project run by Stanford University served as a “dry run” for President Biden’s “disinformation” board, according to journalist Matt Taibbi’s latest “Twitter files” release. “It is very important that people look at this,” said Mary.
  • Robert F. Kennedy Jr., chairman and chief litigation counsel of CHD, and CHD last week filed a class action lawsuit against President Biden, Dr. Anthony Fauci and other top administration officials and federal agencies, alleging they “waged a systematic, concerted campaign” to compel the nation’s three largest social media companies to censor constitutionally protected speech. “They cannot censor the American people like this,” said Mary.
  • The Federal Aviation Administration issued a first-class medical clearance to a pilot whose medical history includes “possible” vaccine-induced myocarditis, according to a letter leaked anonymously by a pilot. “This is a big concern,” said Polly.
  • The Federal Aviation Administration in January quietly updated its Guide for Aviation Medical Examiners, allowing aviation doctors for the first time to give medical clearance to some pilots diagnosed with Guillain-Barré syndrome, a rare neurological disorder connected to certain COVID-19 vaccines. “This is a fantastic letter detailing incidences of pilot issues,” said Mary.
  • Kennedy called on U.S. Secretary of Transportation Pete Buttigieg to investigate the spike in near-misses and narrowly averted airline accidents resulting from pilots incapacitated by health emergencies since 2021, coinciding with the rollout of the COVID-19 vaccination campaign in the U.S.
  • The U.S. Navy will no longer consider COVID-19 vaccination status when making decisions about sailor deployments. “Good for the Navy,” said Polly. “Our troops deserve rights just as anyone else.”
  • Courts follow culture, and the good news is that culture is shifting, and the truth is coming out. The crumbling COVID-19 narrative and the trendline favor us, not the tyrants. “People are starting to understand how disastrous the system can be,” said Mary.
  • A puff of air could deliver your next vaccine. “This could put us all in grave danger,” said Polly.
  • The medical community has a critical role to play in preventing harm from wireless radiation by educating parents and advocating for stricter regulatory action. “Many parents have no idea that this is something that is very dangerous,” said Mary.
  • As the nation suffers through yet another highly pathogenic avian influenza outbreak, questioning the orthodox narrative is more important than ever.
  • Johnson & Johnson said it will appeal to the U.S. Supreme Court after the 3rd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals rejected the company’s bid to use the “Texas two-step” maneuver to get tens of thousands of lawsuits over its talc-containing products dismissed. “This talc was really really hazardous stuff,” said Mary. “It is incredibly sad.”
  • Starting this fall, more highly processed foods will be on the menu for children in public schools thanks to a “major new initiative” to get Kraft Heinz’s “Lunchables” products into U.S. public school cafeterias. “These poor poor children,” said Polly.
