Also, I am passing along this link to a Roundtable Discussion (Part 2) from the “Truth About Vaccines” docu-series. Not sure how much longer this link will stay active, so if you are curious about what a group of experts had to say about vaccines, viruses, censorship and the current viral pandemic, I recommend you take a look to listen in on their discussion.

Note - the link to Dr. Mikovits video may or nay not work in the future. Many of the videos that Dr. Mikovits appears in discussing her life as a scientist and her experience with corruption in science and government, as she discussed in her book, “Plague of Corruption” are being removed/censored from many social media platforms.. A new link will be inserted here, if this one becomes inaccessible. FYI - a new social media platform is being developed where censorship of videos like Dr. Mikovits will remain up and accessible for viewing. The opening of this site is anticipated to be opened soon. It should be noted that Dr. Mikovits video does not contain any violence, sex, nudity, obscenity, nor does she say anything to attempt to incite violence or the overthrow of government. 🤨

Thank you @Wally for sharing theses links to Dr. Mikovitz trailer for the Plandemic documentary and to her many interviews. I will want to go through them. I understand that her new book “Plague of Corruption” is #1 on Amazon. Very interesting.

A new viral video claiming to be an excerpt from a forthcoming documentary, Plandemic, is the latest in a growing number of Covid-19 disinformation efforts. In it and other videos, discredited virus researcher, Dr. Judy Mikovits, claims among other things that Covid-19 is a manmade virus that cannot be transmitted asymptomatically human to human and discourages the wearing of masks and social distancing.

“Covid-19 disinformation is a threat to public health at-large, but is especially damaging to vulnerable chronic illness and disabled communities,” said Jennifer Brea, co-founder of the patient advocacy organization for people with myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome (ME/CFS), #MEAction. “People with ME/CFS are fighting for good science and are desperate for treatments. We are already living with neurological and immune dysfunction. Getting the facts wrong puts our lives at risk.”

In 2009, Judy Mikovits published a study in the journal Science claiming that a mouse virus called XMRV caused ME/CFS. After two major groups failed to replicate her study and determined that her earlier findings were due to laboratory contamination, the paper was retracted from Science in 2011 (https://science.sciencemag.org/content/334/6063/1636.1.full). Mikovits herself was unable to replicate her original results when given blinded samples, a finding she put her name to in a 2012 journal article. (https://mbio.asm.org/content/3/5/e00266-12)

Subsequently, Mikovits was arrested for allegedly stealing data from The Whittemore-Peterson Institute, her employer at the time. https://www.sciencemag.org/news/2011/11/controversial-cfs-researcher-arrested-and-jailed

In the years since, Mikovits exited ME/CFS research circles and became a prominent figure in the anti-vaccine community. In April, she suddenly reappeared in the public eye, releasing a torrent of videos and articles claiming she had uncovered the true cause of cancer, ME/CFS, COVID-19, and autism: vaccines tainted with XMRV.

Notably, a research group at the Cleveland Clinic claimed a link between XMRV and prostate cancer in 2006, but retracted those results after those findings could not be replicated. The Cleveland Clinic team also determined XMRV to be a laboratory contaminant. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/23028701

This video involves Andrew Wakefield and Judy Mikovits.

Why is it that scientists who have committed research fraud (like Andrew Wakefield, who faked his MMR vaccine studies), or scientists who have had their studies retracted (like Judy Mikovits, who made fundamental errors in her XMRV studies), are attracted to the populist antivax movement?

Research fraud is the one of the most disgraceful things a scientist can be involved with in their career; and getting a paper retracted also carries a stigma.

Mikovits has the stigma of a retracted paper linked to her name, but she is now doing things which are worse: spreading dangerous fake news during this critical time of this coronavirus pandemic, which conveniently helps promote her book.



Mikovits has recently claimed that vaccines will not work for an RNA virus like coronavirus, implying vaccines will be of no help during a pandemic. Scientifically this is completely wrong and false. It is extraordinary that she could make such a fundamental scientific error.

There are many vaccines that work against RNA viruses, including for influenza, measles, mumps, rubella and others. Everybody understands that a coronavirus vaccine is our best chance of bringing the pandemic under control.

Mikovits also claims that wearing a mask "activates your viruses" and that if you have coronavirus, this can cause a big problem. This is just complete nonsense. Medical staff in hospitals wear masks to protect themselves against viruses, and this is a vital piece of protective equipment. Again, she makes a fundamental error, and some pretty odd statements.

Vaccine safety should be an important area of research, but it should not be conducted by scientists who have published fraudulent and faked research, or scientists who have had their papers retracted, and are intent on irresponsibly spreading fake news during the pandemic.

Governments are rightly considering bringing in new laws to prosecute people spreading damaging fake news during pandemics. I hope they bring in these laws, because in times of worry and uncertainty, you do not want people to publish false information.
