Kazuhiro Haraguchi, Japan’s former minister for Internal Affairs and Communications, apologized to the public for injuries and deaths resulting from the nation’s COVID shot rollout as well as the suppression of the antiviral drug ivermectin.
On May 31, thousands gathered in Tokyo, Japan, to participate in what organizers have touted as the “world’s biggest protest against the World Health Organization (WHO)”. (For video clips of the protest, refer to the link HERE.)
Notably, Kazuhiro Haraguchi, a former Minister for Internal Affairs and Communications in Japan and a present member of the House of Representatives, gave a rousing speech that was well-received by his audience, apologizing for the Japanese government’s handling of the COVID-19 “vaccine” rollout and expressing his grief for those who succumbed to “vaccine”-linked deaths.
“I apologize to all of you. So many have died, and they shouldn’t have,” he stated.
Adding, Haraguchi said:
When I travel around to different areas, I see those who can’t stand, can’t walk, can’t go to school, can’t go to work. We could have prevented these injuries from happening, but we did not
Going even further, Haraguchi boldly urged his audience to “overthrow the current government,” an exhortation that was greeted with resounding applause.
“Let’s defeat those demonic forces,” Haraguchi urged, calling for government and institutional accountability.
Haraguchi disclosed personal details about his own struggles after “vaccination.” For one, he stated that he had contracted a rapidly progressing form of cancer.
“This time last year, I had neither eyebrows nor hair. Two out of the three supposed vaccines I received were lethal batches,” he divulged.
Haraguchi’s cancer diagnosis led him to lose hair significantly, prompting him to wear a wig. Recalling an incident where his appearance became a point of distraction in the Japanese Diet, Japan’s national legislature, Haraguchi described how a political opponent was caught up with his wig instead of discussing government matters.
Notably, Haraguchi decried Japan’s prohibition of ivermectin, a domestically produced drug developed by Japanese doctor Satoshi Omura, which Haraguchi contended could have played a decisive role in tackling COVID-19. Rather, the Japanese government banned the drug, in a move which Haraguchi suggested was due to economic interests.
“Why? Because they (ivermectin drugs) are cheap. They don’t want it because it will interfere with the sales of the vaccines,” he posited, again drawing loud applause from his listeners.
Likewise, in nearby Philippines, an intense discussion took place in the Philippines’ House of Representatives regarding the alarming rise of more than 290,000 excess deaths due to COVID-19 “vaccines.”
Attorney Tanya Lat condemned the government’s lack of accountability:
There are Filipino people who are sick and tired of how the DOH [Department of Health] has let us down, has refused to admit that people are dying, turning a blind eye to the people who are getting sick, turbo cancers, myocarditis, children who are suddenly sick as if they are 60-, 70-year-old people. We look into their eyes, there does not seem to be any sympathy for the people who have died, for the people who are now physically disabled because of these vaccines.
Strikingly, Congressman Zia Alonto Adiong remarked about the legal safeguards surrounding pharmaceutical firms pushing COVID-19 “vaccines”:
There’s really an agreement that indicates that they cannot be sued. So I mean, that’s something that we should worry about. Why would a pharmaceutical company insist on not being sued if there will be injuries or fatalities that may come after as a result of that?
Furthermore, analyst Sally Clark disclosed disturbing figures regarding the correlation between falling birth rates and “vaccine” rollouts “since the pandemic.”
Elaborating, Sally stated:
The very big spike is the deaths in 2021, which started in March of 2021, immediately consecutive with the start of the vaccine rollout. In 2021, when vaccination rolled out, the deaths went up in all age groups that were vaccinated.
Eventually, the hearing ended by urging lawmakers to further delve into the correlation between the experimental COVID-19 “vaccines” and excess deaths.
Likewise, at the AEFI (Adverse Event Following Immunization) gathering, called “A Prayer to Reject the IHR Amendment and Solidarity with Vaccine Affected Victims” and held by Malaysia’s Muslim Consumer’s Association (PPIM), “vaccine” victims and their families expressed their calls for justice to be done.
One doctor at the event, sorrowfully acknowledged: “As a medical doctor, we are so ashamed of the mistake that we have made!”
Across the Pacific, former CNN anchor Chris Cuomo, who supported COVID-19 “vaccines” previously, recently reinforced Haraguchi’s admission regarding the potential efficacy of Ivermectin.
“I’ll tell you something else that’s gonna get you a lot of hits,” Cuomo said. “I am taking… a regular dose of ivermectin. Ivermectin was a boogeyman during COVID. That was wrong. We were given bad information about ivermectin. The real question is, why?” Cuomo ruminated. Before the former CNN anchor admitted that he was injured by the COVID-19 shots, he had hitherto denounced ivermectin as a “horse dewormer.”
“What matters is, the entire medical community knew that ivermectin couldn’t hurt you. They knew it… I know they knew it. How do I know? Because now I’m doing nothing but talking to these clinicians, who at the time were overwhelmed by COVID, and they weren’t saying anything,” Cuomo lamented.
Unfortunately, it looks like more and more so-called “COVID-19 vaccine conspiracy theories,” such as the aforementioned correlation between “vaccination” and “excess deaths,” are coming true.
However, despite mounting evidence of COVID-19 “vaccine”-linked deaths and injuries, disgraced World Health Organization (WHO) chief Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus remained intransigent in his commitment to push for the highly controversial “Pandemic Treaty” that would undermine individual states’ sovereignty when dealing with future “pandemics.” Tedros’ remarks came after the 194 WHO member states could not attain unanimous agreement on a draft of the “Pandemic Treaty.”
“This is not a failure. We will try everything – believing that anything is possible – and make this happen because the world still needs a pandemic treaty,” Tedros said.

Tulsi Gabbard says US funded ‘gain-of-function’ research at Wuhan lab at heart of COVID ‘leak’

From LifeSiteNews
The director of National Intelligence revealed gain-of-function ties to US funding, which could indicate that the US helped bankroll the supposed COVID lab leak.
In this segment of a remarkable interview by Megyn Kelly, Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard discusses the current Intelligence Community (IC) research into the origin of the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic (aka, COVID-19).
Gabbard talks about the U.S. government funding of “gain-of-function” research, which is a soft sounding phrase to describe the weaponization of biological agents.
Gabbard notes the gain-of-function research taking place in the Wuhan lab was coordinated and funded by the United States government, and the IC is close to making a direct link between the research and the release of the COVID-19 virus.
Additionally, Gabbard explains the concern of other biolabs around the world and then gets very close to the line of admitting the IC itself is politically weaponized (which it is but would be stunning to admit).

Study finds Pfizer COVID vaccine poses 37% greater mortality risk than Moderna

From LifeSiteNews
A study of 1.47 million Florida adults by MIT’s Retsef Levi and Surgeon General Joseph Ladapo finds significantly higher all-cause mortality after Pfizer vaccination compared to Moderna
A new study of 1.47 million Florida adults by MIT’s Retsef Levi and Surgeon General Joseph Ladapo finds significantly higher all-cause, cardiovascular, and COVID-19 mortality after Pfizer vaccination.
The study titled “Twelve-Month All-Cause Mortality after Initial COVID-19 Vaccination with Pfizer-BioNTech or mRNA-1273 among Adults Living in Florida” was just uploaded to the MedRxiv preprint server. This study was headed by MIT Professor Retsef Levi, with Florida Surgeon General Dr. Joseph Ladapo serving as senior author:
Study Overview
- Population: 1,470,100 noninstitutionalized Florida adults (735,050 Pfizer recipients and 735,050 Moderna recipients).
- Intervention: Two doses of either:
- BNT162b2 (Pfizer-BioNTech)
- mRNA-1273 (Moderna)
- Follow-up Duration: 12 months after second dose.
- Comparison: Head-to-head between Pfizer vs. Moderna recipients.
- Main Outcomes:
- All-cause mortality
- Cardiovascular mortality
- COVID-19 mortality
- Non-COVID-19 mortality
All-cause mortality
Pfizer recipients had a significantly higher 12-month all-cause death rate than Moderna recipients — about 37% higher risk.
- Pfizer Risk: 847.2 deaths per 100,000 people
- Moderna Risk: 617.9 deaths per 100,000 people
- Risk Difference:
➔ +229.2 deaths per 100,000 (Pfizer excess) - Risk Ratio (RR):
➔ 1.37 (i.e., 37% higher mortality risk with Pfizer) - Odds Ratio (Adjusted):
➔ 1.384 (95% CI: 1.331–1.439)
Cardiovascular mortality
Pfizer recipients had a 53% higher risk of dying from cardiovascular causes compared to Moderna recipients.
- Pfizer Risk: 248.7 deaths per 100,000 people
- Moderna Risk: 162.4 deaths per 100,000 people
- Risk Difference:
➔ +86.3 deaths per 100,000 (Pfizer excess) - Risk Ratio (RR):
➔ 1.53 (i.e., 53% higher cardiovascular mortality risk) - Odds Ratio (Adjusted):
➔ 1.540 (95% CI: 1.431–1.657)
COVID-19 mortality
Pfizer recipients had nearly double the risk of COVID-19 death compared to Moderna recipients.
- Pfizer Risk: 55.5 deaths per 100,000 people
- Moderna Risk: 29.5 deaths per 100,000 people
- Risk Difference:
➔ +26.0 deaths per 100,000 (Pfizer excess) - Risk Ratio (RR):
➔ 1.88 (i.e., 88% higher COVID-19 mortality risk) - Odds Ratio (Adjusted):
➔ 1.882 (95% CI: 1.596–2.220)
Non-COVID-19 mortality
Pfizer recipients faced a 35% higher risk of dying from non-COVID causes compared to Moderna recipients.
- Pfizer Risk: 791.6 deaths per 100,000 people
- Moderna Risk: 588.4 deaths per 100,000 people
- Risk Difference:
➔ +203.3 deaths per 100,000 (Pfizer excess) - Risk Ratio (RR):
➔ 1.35 (i.e., 35% higher non-COVID mortality risk) - Odds Ratio (Adjusted):
➔ 1.356 (95% CI: 1.303–1.412)
Biological explanations
The findings of this study are surprising, given that Moderna’s mRNA-1273 vaccine contains approximately three times more mRNA (100 µg) than Pfizer’s BNT162b2 vaccine (30 µg). This suggests that the higher mortality observed among Pfizer recipients could potentially be related to higher levels of DNA contamination — an issue that has been consistently reported worldwide:
The paper hypothesizes differences between Pfizer and Moderna may be due to:
- Different lipid nanoparticle compositions
- Differences in manufacturing, biodistribution, or storage conditions
Final conclusion
Florida adults who received Pfizer’s BNT162b2 vaccine had higher 12-month risks of all-cause, cardiovascular, COVID-19, and non-COVID-19 mortality compared to Moderna’s mRNA-1273 vaccine recipients.
Unfortunately, without an unvaccinated group, the study cannot determine the absolute increase in mortality risk attributable to mRNA vaccination itself. However, based on the mountain of existing evidence, it is likely that an unvaccinated cohort would have experienced much lower mortality risks. It’s also important to remember that Moderna mRNA injections are still dangerous.
As the authors conclude:
These findings are suggestive of differential non-specific effects of the BNT162b2 and mRNA-1273 COVID-19 vaccines, and potential concerning adverse effects on all-cause and cardiovascular mortality. They underscore the need to evaluate vaccines using clinical endpoints that extend beyond their targeted diseases.
