WorldNetDaily appears utterly unable to refrain from spreading falsehoods and misinformation about COVID vaccines. Bob Unruh wrote in an April 30 article:
A new report is citing a Canadian government database showing an explosion of reproductive ailments as evidence of problems with side effects from the mRNA treatments mandated by governments and businesses during the COVID-19 pandemic.
“It is past time for the Canadian medical and government establishment, along with mainstream medical professionals and legacy media, to stop gaslighting suffering patients. It is time for them to explore the dramatic evidence of the relationship between COVID vaccination rollout and the reproductive damage that tens of if not thousands of patients suffered,” explained a substack report at BehindTheFDACurtain.
The report documented that according to the database, “the average number of patients assigned the following reproduction-related diagnostic codes increased, on average, in every category for 2021 to 2022 over 2015 to 2019.
“This means that Canadian medical professionals found more Ontarians suffering from the following conditions after over eighty-five percent of the population had taken COVID vaccines.”
The report said up significantly was “Infertility in both men and women,” as well as low sperm count and absence of sperm in semen in men.” Also, “Inflamed fallopian tubes and ovaries,” as well as pelvic inflammatory disease, which can lead to ectopic pregnancy, infertility, chronic pelvic pain, and other related complications.
And “menopausal and post-menopausal bleeding” as well as “disorders of menstruation.”
And, “miscarriages including missed abortions, incomplete abortions, and complete abortions.”
Needless to say, Unruh couldn’t be bothered to fact-check the report or seek out an alternative — he’s a stenographer, not a reporter. But fact-checks of similar claims found that there’s no evidence COVID vaccines played a role in fertility rate declines in Canada. Further, the alleged study that produced those results was co-writtten by Naomi Wolf, a notorious misinformer who has made similar discredited claims about COVID vaccines affecting reproduction.
Of course, if Unruh had uncovered that information, he wouldn’t have a story, and WND doesn’t care about being truthful.
The same day, Unruh cranked out another bit of stenographical COVID misinformation:
Dr. Joseph Mercola, an expert on natural health remedies and avowed critic of the government-mandated COVID shots that were imposed on the American public during the pandemic, now is warning about the evidence of a link between those mRNA shots and dementia.
At his Mercola.com website, he discusses his research and research by others into the links, often devastating, that are being confirmed between the COVID shots that so many governments and corporations demanded citizens take, and some very bad health outcomes.
Among those is dementia, and related mental issues.
“According to mounting data, one of the more serious side effects of the COVID mRNA jabs appears to be dementia, and worse yet, this previously untransmissible disease may now be ‘contagious,’ transmissible by way of prions,” he warned.
Associating prion-related diseases to vaccines has long been an anti-vaxxer trope, and all Mercola is doing here is applying the conspiracy to COVID vaccines. Meanwhile, Unruh seems to be somewhat aware of Mercola’s reputation as a COVID misinformer and overall quack doctor — WND has previously complained when his quackery resulted in consequences — because he went the appeal-to-authority route by reciting his resume:
Mercola’s life work had included his wellness clinic in Illinois, through which he began exploring the world of natural medicine.
He’s worked with patients on ailments including rheumatoid arthritis, chronic fatigue, fibromyalgia, allergies, autism and ADD.
The medical industry pays him a perhaps back-handed compliment when it accuses him of spreading “disinformation” during the COVID pandemic because he expressed doubts about the mRNA treatments that were in some situations forced on unwilling recipients and his advocacy for alternative treatments.
Of course, many of those alternatives, condemned by the pharmaceutical-industrial complex during the pandemic, now are known to provide benefits.
Of course, Unruh made absolutely no effort to talk to anyone other than Mercola, and he refused to tell readers about Mercola’s history of quackery.
WND promoted Unruh’s article on its front page with a picture of President Biden, as if to claim without evidence that his purported signs of “cognitive decline” were caused by the vaccine. Another bit of dishonest journalism that discredits WND.
Despite all this factually challenged scaremongering, WND did also run an article in March (which it stole from the UK Independent) about a man who received 217 COVID vaccines with no apparent ill effect — which makes WND’s scaremongering look even more dishonest.
