Australian COVID-19 vaccines Adverse Event Summary & Analysis
Lisa Mitchell BSc., MAppStats, MBA FAICD
I am pleased and proud to endorse the attached letter and monograph, meticulously compiled
by Dr Phillip Altman and his colleagues. They address some important aspects of COVID19
management and policy, especially in Australia, with a focus on the nature, deployment and
effects of “vaccines”. It is abundantly clear that there has been repression and suppression
in scientific circles and the media of any views or suggestions that run counter to the govern-
ment/mainstream narrative. However, many studies now indicate that the Covid19 vaccines,
especially the mRNA vaccines, are less than 'safe and effective', and the ramifications are
truly confronting. Armed with these facts, the scientific and medical communities can now
begin proper discussions of potential solutions that improve the benefit/risk ratios for the public
and do not harm careers and livelihoods of professionals seeking the best outcomes for their
patients.
11. mRNA Does Not Remain at the Injection Site and Is Not Rapidly
Destroyed
Conclusion
1.1. The nature of the COVID-19 ‘vaccines’ has been largely misrepresented by
mainstream media, big pharmaceutical companies, and governments, and is
consequently poorly understood by the population at large. Most people consider
vaccines to be relatively safe and well researched and readily accept their widespread
use.
1.2. However, these COVID-19 ‘vaccines’ are not really vaccines – they are serious gene-
based therapies which employ a gene-based technology which has never before been
deployed in a fully approved therapeutic product. In this sense they should properly
be considered to be experimental, and much safety and efficacy information has been
gained since the introduction of these products more than a year ago.
1.3. COVID-19 ‘vaccines’ as a therapeutic fall under the US Food and Drug Administration
(FDA) Office of Cellular, Tissue, and Gene Therapies’ definition of “gene therapy
products”, in that it involves “introducing a new or modified gene into the body to help
treat a disease”1. Despite this, the FDA did not evaluate this therapy in relation to the
established gene therapy guidelines. Gene therapies have never been widely used in
a general population.
2.1. On or about the following dates, the TGA granted conditional Provisional Approval of
the following gene-based ‘vaccines’:
• COMIRNATY Pfizer Australia Pty Ltd – a mRNA vaccine (25 January 2021)
• Pfizer paediatric vaccine has been Provisionally Approved (3 December 2021) 5-
11 years
• VAXZEVRIA AstraZeneca Pty Ltd – a viral vector vaccine (15 February 2021)
• COVID-19 VACCINE Janssen-Cilag Pty Ltd – a viral vector vaccine (25 June 2021)
• SPIKEVAX Moderna Australia Pty Ltd, - a mRNA vaccine (9 August 2021)
• Moderna paediatric vaccine has been Provisionally Approved (17 February 2022)
6-11 years & 6 month to 5 years (19 July 2022)
• NUVAXOVID Novavax Inc. – a non-gene protein-based vaccine delivering spike
protein in a lipid-nanoparticle matrix carrier (19 January 2022)
2.2. The TGA receives technical and policy advice from the Australian Technical Advisory
Group on Immunisation (ATAGI). Members of ATAGI have both academic and clinical
interests in vaccine research. The TGA relies heavily upon the recommendations of
ATAGI in relation to the efficacy, safety and use of vaccines. Many government and

2.3. Provisional Approval is a relatively new drug regulatory pathway introduced into the
Therapeutic Goods Act in 2018. Under this expedited review system, therapeutic
agents (including vaccines) can be made available for use when there is a perceived
urgent need to use a drug even though the amount of ordinary safety and efficacy data
normally required to approve that drug is not available. The manufacturer is required
by the TGA to submit additional safety and efficacy data over a defined period to
answer specific important outstanding safety and efficacy issues not completed or
concluded before the product is Provisionally Approved. Products released under
“Provisional Approval” cannot be considered fully evaluated. Under these
circumstances and because there is pending or outstanding safety and efficacy data
to be generated and evaluated, it is premature to declare such drugs “safe and
effective”, and the use of these agents needs to be constantly under review in light of
emerging safety data to reassess the risk versus any perceived benefit.
2.4. The new generation COVID-19 ‘vaccines’ have not been fully ‘approved’ by the
Australian drug regulator – all these products have been “Provisionally Approved” due
to deficiencies in the normal scope and depth of safety and efficacy data normally
required for full approval. This is of particular importance in relation to vaccine
mandates in so far as the regulatory status of these products establish without any
doubt that important safety and efficacy concerns remain in relation to the use of these
products. In such circumstances, forcing individuals on a massive scale to receive
such serious medications with potentially unknown and serious adverse
consequences, including death, using coercive vaccination mandates, is without
precedence in medicine.
2.5. Conventional vaccines usually take about 7 years to develop and test. In a 2018
publication sponsored by the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation 2, vaccines were
divided into three categories: simple, complex and unprecedented.
2.6. The unprecedented category represents those vaccines directed towards a disease
that has never before been successfully treated and include vaccines against HIV and
malaria. According to authors Seneff and Nigh3 unprecedented vaccines are expected
to take more than 12 years to develop due to the technical difficulties, and they are
expected to have a very low chance (about 5%) of proving safety and efficacy in even
early Phase II clinical trials involving small numbers of individuals, and a very much
lower chance (about 2%) of moving to larger Phase III clinical trials and demonstrating
safety and efficacy before being considered for marketing. The gene-based COVID-

2.7. Historically, a large number of conventional vaccines have been withdrawn due to
safety concerns following widespread use. These include vaccines for Yellow Fever,
polio, smallpox, Dengue fever, measles, respiratory syncytial virus, Swine flu,
rotavirus, papillomavirus and influenzae.
3.1. These ‘vaccines’ use a genetic technology which has not been employed for any fully
approved drug and in this sense the use of these products should properly be
considered experimental. This technology, due to its inherent safety risks, has
previously only been investigated in relatively early clinical research for possible use
in certain cancers and rare genetic disorders. These products deliver either RNA in a
lipo-nanoparticle (which has never been used previously) or DNA genetic material
contained in a viral vector to produce the spike protein, similar to that found on the
surface of the coronavirus, in order to provoke an immune response. It is the spike
protein which is now known to be the main toxic component of the SARS-CoV-2
coronavirus. It is also the spike protein produced by these ‘vaccines’ which is
understood to cause the unprecedented number of serious adverse events and death
being reported following vaccination in various international adverse drug reporting
systems.
3.2. All COVID-19 ‘vaccines’ employ new generation nanoparticle technology: either non-
viral or viral based nanoparticles4. The extremely small size of nanomaterials also
means that they are much more readily taken up by the human body than larger sized
particles. Nanomaterials are able to cross biological membranes and access cells,
tissues and organs that larger sized particles normally cannot5. Such wide and
efficient distribution following administration has significant implications in relation to
organ and tissue toxicity as compared to conventional vaccines which largely remain
at the site of injection. Specifically, nanoparticles may cross the blood-brain barrier
(the membrane protecting the spinal cord and brain) and they may be associated with
long term inflammation in various tissues and organs, and they may be associated
with cardiovascular adverse effects.6

4.1. The threat posed by SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus in producing the COVID-19 infection to
segments of the community has been exaggerated due to the nature of the polymerase
chain reaction (PCR) test used to detect “cases”. The PCR test as used in Australia
and elsewhere was set (cycle threshold value: “Ct”) to be exquisitely sensitive and
could produce a positive result even if no live virus was present or even if a fragment
of a single viral particle was present. A survey of the utility of PCR tests reported that
positive PCR tests set to a Ct of 35 only correlated with a positive culture in 3% of
cases7. In Australia and elsewhere, the PCR Ct was normally set at even higher values
conferring less reliability. The PCR test was never intended to be diagnostic for
COVID-19 due to this attribute. Individuals testing positive for COVID-19 frequently
have very low viral loads and are asymptomatic (show no symptoms) and are
incapable of transmission of the virus due to their low viral loads. Children, in
particular, are at virtually nil threat of serious COVID-19 infection (see below). Some
estimates suggest that up to 97% of COVID positive cases” detected by PCR detected
no virus on culture and therefore were of questionable value 8. Indeed, so grave are
the many limitations and lack of reliability attributable to PCR tests, that external peer
review revealed 10 major scientific 9 flaws that resulted in strong calls for the
retraction10 of the Corman-Drosten paper,11 published by Eurosurveillance.
4.2. In recognition of the limitations of the PCR testing, these tests are no longer
considered generally appropriate by the US Center for Disease Control (CDC) in
determining the number of COVID-19 cases and their emergency use authorisation
has been withdrawn reflecting this fact12.

4.6. The NSW Respiratory Surveillance Report ending 23 July 2022 states: ‘146 COVID-
19 deaths were reported this week, a 3% increase from 142 reported last week. All
146 deaths were eligible for a third dose of COVID-19 vaccine…..’, indicating that there
were no deaths reported for unvaccinated individuals15.
4.7. To place these numbers in perspective, the number of deaths due to influenza reported
by the Australian Bureau of Statistics increased steadily from 68 in 2011 to 274 in
2016, and rose sharply to 1,183 in 201716. When grouped, influenza and pneumonia
contributed to 4,369 deaths in 2017 and were the ninth leading cause of death for the
year. During 2018, influenza and pneumonia were the twelfth leading cause of death
(n = 3,102 deaths).
4.8. No statistic is available regarding the number of Australians ‘dying from’ COVID-19.
The total number of Australians ‘dying from’ COVID-19 would be some fraction of the
total deaths reported. Officially reported ‘COVID-19 deaths’ do not discriminate
between those dying “with” COVID-19 and those dying “due to” COVID-19. Some
government websites make this clear17.
4.9. The impact of COVID-19 varies depending on the age group. There is no Australian
statistic available to demonstrate that any otherwise healthy child died ‘due to’ or ‘from’
COVID-19.

4.11. There is emerging evidence that the COVID-19 gene-based ‘vaccines’ are showing
rapid and significant diminished efficacy against the Omicron variant, particularly in
children aged 5-11.18
4.12. Some useful information regarding COVID-19 ascribed deaths in the UK was obtained
by a Freedom of Information Request (FOI/2021/3368), showing the number of deaths
where COVID-19 was the only cause mentioned on the death certificate, from 1
February 2020 to 31 December 2021, by sex and age group in England and Wales19.
This data (presented below as a downloaded Excel table) is important because it is a
record where COVID-19 is the only listed possible cause of death, and it covers a
period where the most virulent strain of SARS-CoV-2 was circulating in the global
population.
4.13. This data supports the view of a virtually or statistically near nil risk of death due to
COVID-19 in very young children, adolescents, and adults through to middle-aged.

4.15. This study is instructive, in that it describes in detail an evaluation process which
should normally be conducted in evaluating whether or not an individual’s death can
be ascribed to COVID-19, in light of pre-existing co-morbidities. Many reports of
“COVID deaths” do not attempt to discriminate or ascribe causality to this level, and
therefore are of limited usefulness. This study was done at a time when the more
virulent strain of SARS-CoV-2 was dominant, and it could be assumed to significantly
overstate the risk of death due to the current Omicron variant which has been dominant
during 2022 worldwide21.
4.16. Despite the potential for this study to overestimate the risk of death in 2022, the authors
conclude:
“…the risk of serious outcomes from SARS-CoV-2 for individuals under 18 years of
age remains extremely low” - and even considering child deaths where COVID-19 was
not the sole cause, the authors conclude – “we estimated the infection fatality rate to
be five per 100,000 indicating that more than 99.995% of children and young people
recover from SARS-CoV-2 infection.”
5.1. Initially, despite limited clinical and epidemiological data, a number of community and
health professional perceptions were widely held in relation to these new vaccines
including:
5.2. In light of more than a year of widespread COVID-19 vaccination usage all these initial
perceptions have been shown to be without foundation. It is undisputed that COVID-

5.3. A good example of the popular misconceptions concerning the gene-based COVID-
19 ‘vaccines’ is the claim of 95% efficacy which was repeated and unchallenged in the
mainstream media and by health authorities in Australia and elsewhere.
5.4. Approval of the gene-based COVID-19 ‘vaccines’ were based on single clinical trials
from each company. These single trials were the sole basis for both the safety and
efficacy claims. For example, in the case of the Pfizer gene-based ‘vaccine’ it was
widely stated and generally accepted at the time that the clinical efficacy of the vaccine
was determined in a large clinical trial of about 44,000 subjects and the efficacy was
95%.
5.5. Without an understanding of the design, conduct and reporting of clinical trials, the
ordinary person might interpret this statement in a number of different ways. For
example, this “95%” efficacy might be interpreted to mean that vaccination provides a
95% chance of being protected from being infected following exposure from a person
infected with SARS-CoV-2; or it might be interpreted to mean that vaccination reduces
the risk of the average healthy person falling seriously ill and needing hospitalisation
following SARS-CoV-2 infection; or it might be interpreted as showing the risk of death
due to severe COVID-19 illness is reduced by 95%.
5.7. The claimed 95% efficacy was based upon only 170 subjects who contracted COVID-
19 during the trial which had a median follow up of two months post-second dose. The
claimed clinical efficacy was not based upon 44,000 subjects. Of the 44,000 subjects
enrolled and divided roughly equally between receiving active prophylactic vaccination
or placebo, only 170 subjects tested positive for COVID-19 AND developed even mild
COVID-19 symptoms (similar to the common cold) which was the criterion set for
“clinical efficacy”; with eight testing positive in the vaccinated group AND displaying a
COVID-19 symptom as mild as a sore throat, fever or cough, while 162 tested positive
in the placebo group AND displayed a COVID-19 symptom as mild as a sore throat,
fever or cough. This is where the 95% COVID “vaccine” efficacy claim originated and,
based on this pivotal data, it should not be inferred that the Pfizer COVID-19 “vaccine
was shown to be 95% effective in preventing serious COVID-19 disease, symptoms,
hospitalisation or death”23.

5.9. A subsequent Pfizer COMIRNATY gene-based COVID-19 ‘vaccine’ trial which was
pivotal in the approval of this ‘vaccine’ for children 5-11 relied on the clinical symptoms
of only 19 children (3 developed symptoms in the Comirnaty vaccine group and 16 in
the placebo group) upon which to base its claimed a relative clinical efficacy of
90.7%.24 Once again, the claimed clinical efficacy only referred to the chance of
preventing the mild symptoms, similar to the common cold, in children who tested
positive for COVID-19. The absolute vaccine clinical efficacy to prevent even mild
symptoms among the 4500 trial participants can then be calculated to be under 1%.
5.10. A similar approach was adopted by other manufacturers such as Moderna claiming
similar “efficacy” which has not been understood by either the media or the lay public.
6.1. All therapeutic agents, including vaccines, present a safety risk. Therefore, the risk-
benefit analysis of any medication needs to be weighed up.
6.2. Drug regulatory agencies now recognise that most children with COVID-19 have either
no symptoms (asymptomatic) or have only mild symptoms.
6.3. I have searched without success for evidence and statistics for the incidence of severe
COVID-19 and death due principally to COVID-19 in children aged 5-11 in New
Zealand and Australia.
6.4. Some information appears in the Australian TGA AusPAR (Public Assessment Report)
Pfizer mRNA Vaccine COMIRNATY dated December 2021, which was used to
approve the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine for children 5-11 years of age. On page 11 of

6.5. A search of the Risk Management Plan report released by Pfizer in February 2022
reviewed all available US COVID-19 cases and deaths to 14 August 2021. The
incident of death in children who tested positive to COVID-19 in ages 0-4 and 5-11
years was listed as “<0.1%” for each group25. This statistic, once again, does not
distinguish between those children dying “with” COVID-19 or “due to” COVID-19.
6.6. The above data sets are consistent with studies26 showing the mortality rate in children
hospitalised with COVID-19 of less than 0.18%, which is less than the mortality rate

PART B: Emerging Picture of the Safety and Efficacy of the COVID-19 ‘Vaccines’
7.1. Table 1 above, shows that no children died and 4 aged 5-11 were admitted to Intensive
Care Units (ICU), however, as indicated previously in this report, it is important to
distinguish between those children admitted to ICU “from COVID-19” or “with COVID-
19”. It is possible that at least some of these children were admitted for serious co-
morbidities (as often is the case), but coincidentally tested positive for COVID-19. Until
this reasonable possibility is ruled out, this information should not be relied upon as
evidence that children suffer, to any meaningful extent, serious disease caused by
COVID-19.
7.2. In reality, the risk of COVID-19 death in an otherwise healthy 5-11 year-old is virtually
or statistically nil. Investigations of extremely rare cases have been poorly
characterised, and it is unclear to what extent any reported death is directly attributable
to COVID-19 as opposed to pre-existing medical conditions. A Johns Hopkins study
published in July 2021 monitoring 48,000 children diagnosed with COVID-19 found a
mortality rate of zero among children without a pre-existing medical condition.29
7.3. As COVID-19 is now known to rarely produce serious disease in children, this should
have significant impact upon the risk-benefit analysis of using the gene-based
‘vaccines’ which have known serious short-term serious adverse effects, including
death, and potentially serious unknown longer term adverse effects in this age group.
8.1. Very limited relatively short-term safety data is available from the individuals involved
in the controlled clinical trials submitted to drug regulatory agencies in support of the

8.2. The problem with these systems is that they involve voluntary reporting and most
doctors are reluctant to report adverse drug reactions to vaccines due to fear of being
accused by health regulators (Australian Health Practitioner Regulatory Agency,
AHPRA) of being considered to be “anti-vax”.30 Many doctors both here and overseas
and other health professionals fear losing their licence to practice if they even apply
for vaccine exemptions, and many investigations are currently underway by AHPRA
at the present time. Also, the criteria for assessing a causal relationship between a
vaccine and an adverse event can be set so high that only a small percentage of
serious adverse events or deaths are officially reported as being caused by a vaccine.
These are some of the reasons why it is widely acknowledged all adverse event
reporting systems suffer from notorious underreporting31. This can result in an
underreporting factor of between 10-30 or more, i.e.: one must multiply the official
incidence of adverse events by 10-30, to obtain a real-world estimate of the true
incidence of the adverse event. For US VAERS reporting in respect of the Covid-19
‘vaccines’, the underreporting factor (URF) is estimated to be between 40x-49x32.
8.3. In Australia, it is difficult to obtain statistics regarding details of the number of deaths
caused by the gene-based ‘vaccines’. A Freedom of Information request (FOI-3586)
was made to the TGA for data on the deaths reported as possibly related to the
COVID-19 ‘vaccines’ and the 196-page report is available online but is almost
completely redacted.33 In the US the VAERS adverse drug reporting system has
recorded 27,758 deaths associated with gene-based “vaccine” administration through
to 29 April 2022. The TGA COVID-19 vaccine weekly safety report released 23 June
202234 indicates a total of 889 deaths in association with COVID-19 gene-based
‘vaccines’ of which only 13 have been identified by the TGA as definitely causing
death. However, there are no public details available as to the criteria used by the
TGA in arriving at this number of 13 deaths. This reported incidence of death does
not account for any underreporting factor.

8.5. Prior to COVID-19 vaccinations, over the last 10 years there has been an average of
about 155 deaths per year reported in relation to all conventional vaccines to the US
VAERS. This includes all standard childhood vaccines on vaccine schedules, annual
flu vaccines, travel vaccines, hepatitis, human papilloma virus vaccines, tetanus
vaccines, meningococcal vaccines and herpes vaccines.
8.6. The website OpenVAERS extracts VAERS data each week specifically in relation to
adverse event reports for the Covid-19 ‘vaccines’. An inspection shows the contrast
in reported mortality for the gene-based COVID-19 ‘vaccines’ compared to all other
vaccines combined since 1990.36

two major adverse drug reporting systems: VigiAccess (hosted by WHO) and
EudraVigilance (hosted by the European Medicines Agency)39.

8.12. Dr. Jessica Rose has analysed the percentage of individuals experiencing adverse
effects within 24- and 48-hour periods in relation to COVID-19 vaccine administration.
8.13. Of particular interest is the Rose analysis of VAERS % reported deaths following
vaccination with the gene-based vaccines versus the number of days following
injection43. This analysis included a graphical representation of the temporal
relationship between the number of deaths reported in association with COVID-19
vaccine administration and the time of death measured in days following injection.
In relation to the widely accepted Bradford Hill criteria for the assessment of adverse
drug reactions, a close temporal relationship between drug administration and the
adverse event represents some of the strongest evidence upon which to assign a
cause-effect relationship.
The following graphical representation depicts the percent of reported deaths versus
the number of days following injection of a COVID-19 “vaccine” (data ending
December 2021) showing a clustering of deaths within about 2 days of administration
(orange line) compared to an expected background incidence of a hypothetical event
which is not related temporally to vaccine administration (yellow line).

8.14. The abovementioned analyses are short-term analyses, i.e. observations within days,
weeks or months of vaccination. No long-term safety data is available for the COVID-
19 gene-based vaccines. The long-term safety of the gene-based vaccines is
completely unknown and there are potentially serious concerns which will only be
resolved many years into the future. These concerns are based on the identification
of pathogenic attributes of the spike protein and include profound disturbances in
regulatory control of protein synthesis and natural cancer surveillance protective
mechanisms, a potentially causal link to neurodegenerative disease, immune
thrombocytopenia, Bell’s palsy, liver disease, impaired adaptive immunity, impaired
DNA damage response and tumorigenesis.
8.15. It has been suggested that the increase in deaths temporally associated with the
introduction of the gene-based ‘vaccines’ is not due to these new ‘vaccines’ but rather
due to increased numbers of injections overall. However, this explanation does not
appear valid as the COVID-19 vaccines represent a small proportion of all vaccines
given in the US since 1990. For example, just considering flu vaccines, it has been
reported that since the 08/09 flu season a total of 1,720,400,000 flu vaccines were
administered while only 557,637,223 doses of the COVID-19 vaccines were
administered in the USA. Many other types of vaccines are routinely used.
20
8.17. Of all the serious more short-term adverse events receiving attention in relation to the
gene-based COVID-19 vaccines, myocarditis has probably received the most attention
due to the seriousness of the condition (can cause permanent heart damage and be
fatal) and its potential to affect longevity especially in the younger age groups with a
predominance among younger males.
8.18. In analysing the possible incidence of myocarditis associated with the gene-based
vaccines, it is useful to compare the historical rates of myocarditis prior to the
introduction of these vaccines with the rate associated with the vaccine rollouts (Pfizer,
Moderna and Janssen) during 202145.
8.19. It appears that there is a risk of myocarditis from both COVID-19 infection (especially
in the elderly population) and from gene-based COVID-19 vaccines – both considered
to be related to the toxic spike protein. The US Center for Disease Control (CDC) has
attempted to discriminate between the two causal factors in order to arrive at a risk of
myocarditis caused by the vaccines. If there is a risk of people contracting myocarditis
from SARS-CoV-2 then this would appear to be negligible, as no health authority has
produced a report or meaningful evidence that SARS-CoV-2 significantly elevates the
risk of myocarditis.
8.20. The risk of myocarditis, pericarditis and cardiac arrhythmias associated with several
gene-based COVID-19 ‘vaccines’ or SARS-CoV-2 infection itself was studied in a large
case series study of people aged 16 or older in England between 1 December 2020
and 24 August 2021.46
8.21. In this large study the temporal relationship between the gene-based vaccines and
myocarditis was seen in the subgroup analysis by age showing an increased risk of
myocarditis associated with the two mRNA vaccines in those younger than 40 years
of age. Subgroup analysis was only performed for myocarditis. While those under 16
years of age were not studied it is widely recognised and accepted that younger males
are most at risk of myocarditis. In addition, the authors state:
‘Our findings are relevant to the public, clinicians and policy makers. First, there was
an increase in the risk of myocarditis within a week of receiving the first dose of both

8.22. In a nationwide study in France involving 32 million people aged 12-50 years of age
and receiving 46 million doses of mRNA vaccines, 1,612 cases of myocarditis and
1,613 cases of pericarditis occurred in France between 12 May 2021 and 31 October
2021.47 The risk of myocarditis and pericarditis for both the Pfizer and Moderna mRNA
COVID-19 vaccines was found to be increased both after the first and second doses.
The risk of this association was statistically significant and particularly evident for the
Moderna COVID-19 ‘vaccine’ where the risk of myocarditis/pericarditis was increased
30 times suggesting a dose-response relationship, given Moderna has 100
micrograms of mRNA and COMIRNATY has 30 micrograms of mRNA per dose. The
risk was increased in younger age groups. The incidence of both myocarditis and
pericarditis reported in this study was consistent with the incidence reported in other
countries.
8.23. Another study from Israel investigated the incidence of myocarditis and pericarditis in
post COVID-19 unvaccinated patients.48 This is an important study because some
have argued that the myocarditis and pericarditis incidence observed in populations
may be due to COVID-19 and not due to COVID-19 ‘vaccines’. This retrospective
cohort study of 196,992 adults following COVID-19 infection and 590,976 control
adults who tested negative for COVID-19 concluded:
‘Post COVID-19 infection was not associated with either myocarditis or pericarditis.
We did not observe an increased incidence of either pericarditis nor myocarditis in
adult patients recovering from COVID-19 infection.’
8.24. Aside from being under-diagnosed in practice, it is generally known that many doctors
avoid reporting myocarditis and other serious possible adverse events in relation to
the gene-based vaccines for fear of being seen as critical of the national health COVID-
19 vaccination policies, and possible health regulator intimidation and retribution. This,
combined with the inherent underreporting of adverse events in general, suggest the
true incidence of adverse effects such as myocarditis may be much higher than
officially reported. This needs to be considered in the calculation of the risk-benefit
analysis.

8.27. Myocarditis and pericarditis are serious medical conditions which may have life-long
consequences and may be life threatening and may affect 5-11 year-old children. As
of 28-7-2022, despite possibly significant underreporting, there have been 37
suspected cases of chest pain (indicative of myocarditis and pericarditis) have been
reported to the DAEN system in this age group51.
8.28. The paediatric COVID-19 gene-based ‘vaccines’ have only been available for a limited
time as compared to the vaccines for the older age groups. But the safety record of
the ‘vaccines’ used in the older age groups is an indicator of the adverse events one
might expect in the younger age groups.
8.29. In this regard, the following information should be taken into consideration:
a. The VAERS database reports that as of 22 April 2022, in the US alone there
were 5,309 cases of myocarditis, 782,665 adverse events, 151,796 severe
adverse events, and 14,613 deaths recorded following COVID-19 vaccination
in the US.52
8.30. Further, in the documents related to a recent FOIA request, in the Pfizer informed
consent document54 it was revealed that the company recognised the risk of
myocarditis to be as high as 1 in 1,000. Myocarditis is overwhelmingly found in
younger people.
8.31. Another factor which needs to be considered is the delay in assessing and reporting
adverse drug events due to the unprecedented number of such events being reported.
Pfizer itself has acknowledged this issue in its cumulative analysis of post-
authorisation adverse event report 5.3.6 of pf-07302048 (bnt162b2), dated 30 April
2021 (Pfizer’s Adverse Events Report) (released in or about November 2021

“Pfizer has also taken multiple actions to help alleviate the large increase of adverse
event reports. This includes significant technology enhancements, and process and
workflow solutions, as well as increasing the number of data entry and case processing
colleagues. To date, Pfizer has onboarded approximately 600 additional fulltime
employees (FTEs). More are joining each month with an expected total of more than
1,800 additional resources by the end of June 2021.”56
8.32. During phase III clinical trials for the mRNA COVID-19 vaccine products, safety was
assessed based on a maximum observation period of 6 months. This is not adequate
to assess long-term safety outcomes. A typical timeline of up to 10 years would be
considered appropriate for long-term follow up. There are many examples where
biological products have been recalled (let alone gene-based products) such as the
rotavirus vaccines in 2010, the H1N1 influenza vaccine in 2009 and a meningococcal
vaccine in 2005-2008.
8.33. Data from pivotal clinical trials used to support the gene-based ‘vaccines’ of Moderna,
Pfizer and Janssen were re-analysed by Classen57 to determine ‘all cause severe
morbidity” defined as “severe infections with COVID-19 and all other severe adverse
events between the treatment arms and control arms respectively’. This type of
analysis avoids any bias within the adverse drug reporting system where a cause-
effect assessment might be arbitrarily discounted due to the overly strict criteria
required to establish such a relationship. This analysis found a statistically significant
increase in all cause severe morbidity in the vaccinated group compared to the placebo
group. When all types of severe events were considered, the vaccinated group
suffered more severe adverse events; this suggests the gene-based vaccines are
doing more harm than good.
8.34. In a published paper by a world-expert analyst of the VAERS database for all age
groups, Dr. Jessica Rose58 found that, based on the ratio of expected severe adverse
events to observed adverse events in VAERS for a number of conditions, the
‘underreporting factor (URF)’ for COVID vaccine-associated deaths was 31. Using this
URF for all VAERS-classified severe adverse events, as of October 2021, COVID-19
‘vaccines’ were associated with 205,809 deaths, 818,462 hospitalizations, 1,830,891

8.35. Further relevant background information is provided by life insurance industry data for
adults. These data suggest historic increases in death claims coinciding with gene-
based ‘vaccine’ rollouts. A publicly available quarterly report by the Group Life
Insurance Industry, covering roughly 90% of the employer-based policies in the US,
reported that younger age groups were suddenly dying at historically unprecedented
rates beginning in Q3 of 2021.59
8.36. Other evidence of the damage caused by the gene-based ‘vaccines’ comes from the
number of ambulance calls in response to cardiac arrests and acute coronary
syndromes (heart attacks) for young people in the 16–39 age group during the COVID-
19 vaccination rollout in Israel (January–May, 2021) compared with the same period
of time in prior years 2019 and 2020.60
8.37. There is also an alarming and massive rise in deaths among healthy, young
professional athletes from around the world since the COVID-19 vaccination campaign
was initiated. As of 4 June 2022, approximately 1,090 athletes61 suffered a cardiac
arrest, with 715 of them dying as a result. The majority of arrests occurred in
competition or training. The frequency of these events in comparison to historical data
is of great concern. In a 2009 review of professional athletes’ deaths62, published in a
prominent European Cardiology journal, they found that from 1966 to 2004, there was
an average of only 29 sudden athlete deaths per year worldwide. Compare this
number to just the month of January 2022 alone where 127 collapses and 87 deaths
among professional athletes were reported. Overall, these athlete deaths reflect an
approximately 22-fold increase in the year after the introduction of COVID vaccines,
to date unexplained by other identifiable causes.
8.38. Australian Bureau of Statistics data also reflect a similar surge in Excess Deaths
commensurate with the rollout of the ‘vaccines’, where Excess (non-COVID) Deaths
for 2022 already are 17.5% above baseline, as the following graph63 vividly depicts.

8.39. New South Wales COVID-19 data for hospital admissions, ICU admissions and deaths
in the 14 days up to 23 July 202264 is shown below. The data shows 693 people with
known vaccination status were admitted to hospital; of these, one person was reported
as unvaccinated. In interpreting this data it is noted that this is at a time when it is
estimated that about 95% of individuals over 16 years of age are reported to be
vaccinated. Also, unvaccinated individuals entering hospital for any reason may be
more likely to be tested for COVID-19 as compared to those individuals who declare
they are vaccinated. Taking these factors into account, the data suggests that Covid-
19 vaccinated individuals are placing relatively higher demands on hospital resources
as compared to the unvaccinated, a trend that has been occurring in 2022.

8.40. One category of death not normally accounted for in Excess Deaths figures are
stillbirths. After the deployment of COVID-19 ‘vaccines’ in Germany and Scotland,
statistically significant increases in stillbirths, perinatal, and neonatal deaths are now
apparent from late 2021 leading into 202265.

8.42. These declines appear to correlate with data released by Pfizer to regulators on or
shortly after 28 February 202172, where Pfizer reported on outcomes in 270 pregnant
women who received the Pfizer ‘vaccine’. No outcome or follow-up by Pfizer was
provided for 238 of the pregnancies thus undermining any claims of safety in
pregnancy. Of the remaining pregnancies 28 out of 29 babies died, a death rate of
97% in those pregnancies Pfizer did follow-up. Though this Pfizer pregnancy data is
grossly lacking, it nonetheless begs critical questions which regulators have to date
not asked. Regulators should begin asking questions or considering the continued
use of these ‘vaccines’, particularly now when further studies are confirming relatively
high impacts on women’s menstrual cycles 73. Furthermore, data74procured from Pfizer
under Court order show that the Lipid Nanoparticles (LNPs) used as the delivery
vehicle for the synthetic mRNA, extensively bio-distributes throughout the human body
and accumulates in various organs including the kidney, spleen, adrenal glands, testes
and ovaries although ‘vaccine’ recipients were initially informed the ‘vaccines’ would
remain in the deltoid muscle at the site of injection. Although the effects of the
delivered synthetic mRNA upon the various organs studied is currently unknown, many
studies75 show toxic effects of LNPs.

8.44. The long-term potential for the Spike Protein (produced by the COVID-19 ‘vaccines’)
to induce a range of autoimmune diseases has been commented upon by several
authors. Because there is no long-term safety data available at the moment, the
chance of induced autoimmune disease cannot be determined77.
9.1. The Spike Protein contained on the surface of the SARS-CoV-2 virus facilitates the
binding of the viral particle to human cells, allowing infection of those cells, and has
inherent toxicity in its own right. 78 However, the Spike Proteins produced by the
COVID-19 ‘vaccines’ are not identical to the Spike Protein on the natural SARS-CoV-
2 virus79 in that some uracil nucleotide bases (there are 4 different nucleotide bases in
RNA: uridine, cytosine, guanine and adenine) are replaced with pseudouridine (a
methylated derivative). This seemingly small change imparts profound
pharmacological characteristics to the mRNA molecule produced by the COVID-19
‘vaccines’ including the ability to evade natural degradation as happens to natural
mRNA. Further, the synthetic mRNA Spike Proteins interfere with the body’s natural
immune system (including Toll Like Receptors) which explains why these mRNA
particles can provoke latent viral eruptions of Herpes Zoster and Epstein-Barr viruses
as reported in adverse drug reaction reporting systems.
9.2. Reactivation of the dormant virus Herpes Zoster, which is responsible for shingles, has
been reported in relation to COVID-19 vaccination but at the moment no cause-and-
effect relationship has been acknowledged. In order to investigate a possible cause-
effect relationship, a systematic review of the literature was undertaken 80. A total of
54 cases reported in the literature were found and reviewed. Thirty-six patients out of
45 (80%) developed herpes zoster following the priming dose of mRNA COVID-19
vaccine. Furthermore, 96% of patients developed it within a temporal timeframe
defined by WHO as indicative of a causal relationship. The authors even suggested
possible use of prophylactic herpes zoster anti-viral medication prior to vaccination to
herpes prone individuals.

9.4. It has been a widespread belief that the Spike Protein produced by the gene-based
‘vaccines’ is the same as the Spike Protein on the surface of the SARS-CoV-2 virus,
therefore, the effects of both will be similar. Furthermore, it has been assumed that
exposing an individual to just the Spike Protein of the ‘vaccines’ is safer than exposure
to the natural virus. However, these reasonings are now being questioned. It is now
understood that the mRNA produced by the gene-based ‘vaccines’ contains pseudo-
uridine instead of uridine as a nucleotide base and remains in circulation for much
longer.
10. mRNA Does Not Remain at the Injection Site and Is Not Rapidly Destroyed
10.1. The normal biochemical protective mechanisms ensure that mRNA molecules are
normally rapidly destroyed outside cells. Initially, it was thought that mRNA produced
from COVID-19 ‘vaccines’ would be rapidly destroyed. However, evidence now shows
that the mRNA from these ‘vaccines’ may linger for 15 days or more post-vaccination82.
The persistence of this mRNA has implications for continued production of Spike
Protein and associated possible toxicity associated with the Spike Protein. Another
study suggests mRNA produced following COVID-19 vaccination may remain in lymph
nodes for up to 60 days83.
10.2. These nucleotide manipulations of the ‘vaccine’ mRNAs to reduce its rate of
degradation and therefore to enhance its capacity to drive Spike Protein production
per molecule of mRNA, may produce concentrations much higher than those observed
with natural infection in some individuals. Gene-based ‘vaccines’ appear to drive
production of incredibly high numbers of Spike Protein mRNA molecules (13 trillion to
40 trillion) almost instantaneously as compared to natural infection. This may account
for the serious adverse effects and deaths reported following administration of gene-
based COVID-19 ‘vaccines’ in adverse drug reporting systems, and further research
is needed with regard to this important observation.
10.3. The immediate injection of literally trillions of Spike Protein producing mRNA
molecules, as distinct from the slower accumulation of Spike Protein by natural
infection, could be responsible for the numbers of deaths reported within 48 hours of
COVID-19 ‘vaccine’ injection, although this is yet to be proven. This is why COVID-19

10.4. These authors also reflect upon the lack of transparency regarding lot-to-lot gene
sequencing for vaccine quality control which might explain why some batches/lots of
gene-based COVID-19 ‘vaccines’ are associated with much high incidences of severe
adverse effects84.
10.5. A biopsy study provided direct evidence linking Spike Protein concentrations produced
following vaccination in heart tissue to the development of myocarditis.85
11.1. In considering the safety of any new therapeutic, potential for both genotoxicity
(damage to genes) and mutagenicity (potential to cause cancer) are among the
highest priorities. This should especially apply to genetic therapeutics such as the
COVID-19 ‘vaccines’, and more so when administration of these products to healthy
individuals of all ages worldwide was envisioned.
11.2. Evidence shows the spike protein produced by the Pfizer mRNA vaccine can enter
into the nucleus of cells and disrupt fundamental cellular processes involved in DNA
repair. This adds to concerns and raises serious potential safety issues regarding a
diminished ability of the body to prevent the rise of cancers 86. Neither of these
observed genetic type molecular effects are expected in relation to conventional
vaccines.
The World Health Organisation (WHO) Technical Report Series, no. 927m 2005 Annex
1, WHO Guidelines on nonclinical evaluation of vaccine88 page 50 section 4.2.3 states:
11.4. Drug regulators around the world have accepted official product information
statements which acknowledge the omission of this important pre-clinical (in-vitro
and/or animal) genotoxicity and mutagenicity safety data.
11.5. Provisional Approval for the new gene-based COVID-19 ‘vaccines’ began early 2021.
However, since then important laboratory genetic data has been published which
raises the theoretical possibility that the mRNA contained in these gene-based
‘vaccines’ may be reverse transcribed (that is, incorporated) into one’s DNA around
the body (including a wide variety of tissues and organs including eggs in the ovary)
which is contrary to the assumptions of the drug regulators such as the TGA. This
research, according to established protocols, was done on an in-vitro human liver cell
line. The potential safety implications for current and future generations are of great
relevance and significance and drug regulators should be demanding immediate
further investigations89. These findings raise the possibility that these gene-based
COVID-19 ‘vaccines’ might induce cancers and that these effects may be inherited
into future generations. Until this and other questions are addressed it is not prudent
nor reasonable to claim these products are “safe”.
11.7. Furthermore, in relation to risk-benefit, it has been reported that “based on publicly
available official UK and US data, all age groups under 50 years old are at greater risk
of death after receiving a COVID-19 inoculation than an unvaccinated person is at risk
of a COVID-19 death91. In such circumstances, it is extremely difficult to justify
mandatory vaccination.
11.8. It is also unknown if the Danish drug regulator’s recent decision to cease its gene-
based vaccination program is related to concerns regarding genotoxicity 92. The

11.9. The issue of potential mutagenicity and genotoxicity is of high importance and received
attention at Australian Senate Estimates on 1 June 2021 (Community Affairs
Legislation Committee)93.
11.10. In that hearing, Prof. Skerritt (head of the Australian TGA) by Senator Malcolm Roberts
on the potential for the mRNA to enter the nucleus of cells and cause potentially
serious genetic adverse events which could affect future generations:
Dr Skerritt: There is no evidence at all from animal or human studies that the
RNA vaccines, if you're talking about them, incorporate into the genetic material
of human beings. They wouldn't have received regulatory approval, and that
includes by much bigger regulators such as the FDA, if these bits of mRNA
incorporated into the human genetic material. In fact, medicines that
incorporate into human genetic material and are inherited are currently not
permitted in most major countries, including Australia.”
11.11. The statement by Prof. Skerritt was made prior to the publications referred to above.
These events provide compelling evidence to reject the indiscriminate general use of
these gene-based COVID-19 ‘vaccines’ and to prevent mandatory vaccination on
safety grounds.
12.1. The COVID-19 ‘vaccines’ neither prevent infection nor do they prevent transmission
of the infection. SARS-CoV-2 infection is via airborne infection of viral particles
entering via the mucosa (surface lining) of the nose. COVID-19 ‘vaccines’ do not
induce mucosal immunity: instead they induce blood-borne immunity, which is not
effective in countering organisms entering and multiplying in the mucosal tract. This
is why, despite population vaccination rates approaching 90%, COVID-19 cases
remain stubbornly high in many countries.
12.2. ‘Dr Anthony Fauci, head of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Disease
(NIAID) said the viral load of Delta variant in the nasal passages of vaccinated people
was “almost identical” to that in noses of unvaccinated people.94 It is an accepted
principle that the viral load or amount of virus present is directly proportional to both

34
12.3. Dr Rochelle Walensky, director of the Center for Disease Control (CDC) said publicly
that the COVID-19 vaccines “can’t prevent transmission” [of SARS-CoV-2]95. This is
basically because the COVID-19 vaccines do not prevent infection in an individual i.e.
the COVID-19 ‘vaccines’ are not “sterilizing”.
12.4. In addition, three articles in The Lancet report that the current COVID-19 gene-based
vaccines do not prevent transmission of SARS-CoV-296.
12.5. Contrary to initial popular belief and in light of recent evidence, mandatory COVID-19
vaccination will neither significantly or effectively prevent SARS-CoV-2 infection or
prevention of transmission of infection to others. According to Gunter Kampf, fully
vaccinated individuals can carry similar viral loads to unvaccinated individuals and
spread the virus just as easily97.
12.7. The author concludes: “It is therefore wrong and dangerous to speak of a pandemic of
the unvaccinated”.
12.8. A Wisconsin, USA, study in June/July 2021 (when the Delta variant was prominent)
found no difference for SARS-CoV-2 infected individuals in viral load measurements
by PCR test cycle threshold (Ct) data between 310 fully vaccinated and 389
unvaccinated individuals: Testing found high viral load in 68% of the fully vaccinated

12.9. The risk of infection leading to COVID-19 varies depending on age and clinical status
(including the presence of natural immunity) and must be weighed against the
accumulating evidence of serious adverse effects including death, as well as the
waning efficacy of the vaccines in protecting against infection.
13.1. In the first part of 2022 a number of public health sources in the US, Australia,
Denmark, Israel and the UK have suggested the protective efficacy of the COVID
‘vaccines’ is waning or possibly even resulting in “negative efficacy”, i.e. those
vaccinated are at a higher risk of infection. This was in the context of the later
subvariants of Omicron as reported in an observational study of 22,072,550 SARS-
CoV-2 cases99.
“The vaccine effectiveness (VE) for the third dose was in negative since December
20, 2021, with a significantly increased proportion of SARS-CoV2 cases
hospitalizations and deaths among the vaccinated; and a decreased proportion of
cases, hospitalizations, and deaths among the unvaccinated.”
13.4. The main reason for this negative vaccine efficacy has been mainly ascribed to the fact
that the Omicron strain of viruses which we are experiencing now are considerably
different to the original Wuhan strain and subsequent Delta strain. Those individuals
vaccinated with the gene-based ‘vaccines’ based on the Wuhan strain of virus are
paradoxically more susceptible to Omicron infection.

13.9. COVID-19 vaccination commenced in Australia early in 2021. While the both absolute
number and percent of the population COVID vaccinated increased rapidly for
countries during 2021 and into 2022, the data shows both the rate and absolute
number of confirmed COVID-19 cases markedly increased towards the end of 2021.
This worldwide data demonstrates a failure of the COVID-19 ‘vaccines’ to prevent
infection and transmission of the disease.
13.10. This data strongly suggests that commencing in 2022 the COVID-19 vaccines have
substantially lost the ability to prevent infection and transmission of the virus, despite
high rates of vaccine uptake in the population. This provides evidence of the futility of
vaccine mandates.
13.11. All epidemiological and health statistical data requires careful interpretation as
definitions may vary from jurisdiction to jurisdiction and health protocols can impact
the interpretation of the data. However, without evidence to the contrary, the above
data appears to provide a compelling evidence of a negative vaccine efficacy. In other
words, COVID-19 vaccinated individuals are more likely to be infected with the current
strain of the COVID-19 virus and be admitted to hospital than compared to non-
vaccinated individuals. Similar observations have been made in other countries.
13.12. As mentioned earlier, a major contributing factor to this phenomenon may be due to
the fact that since early 2022, the dominant variant of the SARS-CoV-2 virus is
38
14.1. Mandatory vaccination by its very nature assumes that a therapeutic agent produces
a similar risk and a similar benefit for all individuals. However, this is never the case.
Therapeutics should always be prescribed with a consideration of the particular clinical
status of the individual, which is why prescribing information always contains specific
warnings and contraindications of use in relation to age, health status etc. Drugs are
never prescribed on a “one size fits all” basis. Prescribing a drug and ignoring the
particular clinical circumstances of an individual is not good medical practice.

14.4. The important role of natural immunity from both a personal and societal point of view
needs to be recognised. This societal natural immunity was commonly referred to as
‘herd immunity’ and was initially widely considered important to limit the impact of the
virus.
14.5. Conventional wisdom suggests that natural immunity following COVID-19 infection
provides a high level of durable protection from re-infection in many ways superior to
“vaccination” because natural immune response is a multifaceted immune response
directed against a number of components including the envelope, the membrane, the
nucleocapsid and the spike within the virus – unlike the immune response produced
by gene-based ‘vaccines’ which only direct the production of specific antibodies only
towards the virus Spike Protein.
14.6. It has been likely that hundreds of millions of people have recovered from COVID-19.
Numerous scientists have found that natural immunity offers a decreased risk of re-
infection and extremely low rates of hospitalisation in relation to repeat infection104.
14.7. A study in Qatar found that ‘natural infection appears to elicit strong protection against
reinfection with an efficacy ~95% for at least seven months’105.
14.8. The UK study by Hall et al, with funding from the UK Government, reported a similar
level of protection due to natural immunity106.
14.9. A study in Austria found that the frequency of re-infection from COVID-19 caused
hospitalisation in only five out of 14,840 (0.03%) people and death in one out of 14,840
(0.01%)107.
14.10. In many ways, natural immunity protection will be superior to the protection afforded
by gene-based COVID-19 ‘vaccines’. In such circumstances, voluntary or mandatory

14.11. A retrospective observational study of 124,500 individuals, conducted during the Delta
wave of SARS-CoV-2 compared two groups: people who had not been previously
infected with SARS-CoV-2 and received a 2-dose regimen of the Pfizer COVID-19
“vaccine” and previously infected individuals who had not been vaccinated108.
Individuals who had been vaccinated had a 13-fold greater chance of breakthrough
infection compared to re-infection in the non-vaccinated group.
14.12. The conclusion of the authors was: ‘Naturally acquired immunity confers stronger
protection against infection and symptomatic disease caused by the Delta variant of
SARS-CoV-2, compared to the BNT162b2-2 [Pfizer COVID-19 ‘vaccine’] dose
vaccine-induced immunity’.
14.13. While the current SARS-CoV-2 variant is Omicron, in the absence of data to the
contrary, these data provide a compelling case to support the importance of natural
immunity in protecting against SARS-CoV-2 infection.
14.14. The Swedish drug regulator is regarded as one of the most respected regulatory
agencies and they have recently reversed its recommendation on the administration
of COVID-19 ‘vaccines’ to adolescent children as they do not see any clear benefit in
COVID-19 vaccination. According to a Reuters news release in Stockholm on 27
January 2022, Sweden decided against recommending COVID-19 ‘vaccines’ for
children aged 5-11, the Swedish Health Agency said that the benefits did not outweigh
the risks: ‘With the knowledge we have today, with a low risk for serious disease for
kids, we don't see any clear benefit with vaccinating them’109.
14.15. It is reported that children in the population are at a substantially lower risk of
developing COVID-19.110
14.16. In addition, it has been suggested that a high proportion of children in the population
have acquired natural immunity which offers better protection from infection as
compared to vaccination. As above, a large study during the Delta wave found
vaccinated individuals had a 13-fold greater chance of breakthrough infection than
unvaccinated individuals had of being re-infected.

Despite initial claims, the COVID-19 gene-based ‘vaccines’ have now been shown to
possess disappointing clinical efficacy - they neither prevent SARS-CoV-2 infection
nor do they prevent transmission of the virus; any immunological protection wanes
rapidly and, coincident with the emergence of the Omicron variant, evidence of
negative vaccine efficacy is being reported in many countries including Australia.
In light of widely reported emerging and compelling evidence, there appears to be little
scientific or clinical justification to support vaccine mandates as a health policy.
The latest hospital admission statistics do not support the claim that unvaccinated
individuals are more at risk of serious COVID-19 disease, hospitalisation or death.
Excess non-COVID-19 related deaths coincident with the introduction of the gene-
based ‘vaccines’ are now being reported by many countries, and suggest a surge in
heart attack and stroke among both the young, adolescents and middle age individuals
(especially males).
The knowledge that the synthetic mRNA in both the Pfizer and Moderna vaccines can
enter the nucleus of human liver cells in culture, raises the serious questions about
genotoxicity and carcinogenicity, and adverse impact on future generations. Disturbing
safety signals regarding fertility and miscarriages are emerging.
Given the statistically or virtually nil risk of serious COVID-19 in general affecting
children aged 6 months to 11 or 12 years of age and the clear and significant risk of
serious adverse effects including myocarditis, pericarditis and death in this age group
– there seems to be little benefit to be gained by vaccinating these children.
The urgency for this review cannot be overestimated given the current and potential
future impact on the health and wellbeing of all Australians.

Dr Phillip Altman has expertise in the areas of clinical medical research and pharmaceutical drug
regulatory affairs in Australia.
Holding the degrees Bachelor of Pharmacy (Hons), and Master of Science and Doctor of
Philosophy, Phillip’s doctorate concerned the development new of cardiotonic drugs with lower
intrinsic toxicity, compared to existing drugs including their chemical synthesis and testing in various
animal models.
Phillip has worked primarily within the Australian pharmaceutical industry since 1974 in relation to
clinical trial design, management, and reporting in relation to obtaining new drug approvals, dealing
with the Secretary of the Department of Health, and the Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA).
After many years working within multinational pharmaceutical companies, Phillip later became a
senior industry pharmaceutical consultant through his contract research company, Pharmaco Pty
Ltd., which provided both clinical trial and regulatory consultant services to the Australian
pharmaceutical industry, which focussed his experience in critically evaluating clinical trial safety
and efficacy data, as submitted in complex new drug dossiers for international regulatory purposes.
This work saw Phillip consulted by more than half of the multinational pharmaceutical companies
in Australia, in various capacities, with a focus on drug regulatory affairs.
Phillip founded the Association of Regulatory and Clinical Scientists (ARCS), which includes more
than 2,000 scientists, clinicians, and associated health professionals involved in both clinical trial
and regulatory affairs, in Australia and New Zealand, where ARCS continues to be the foremost
educational forum for both industry and government (including the TGA) personnel, involved in
clinical trials and regulatory affairs.
Phillip’s experience involves more than 100 clinical trials (covering Phases I,II, III and IV, i.e. from
first administration to animals, then man, to post-approval trials), and a similar number of new drug
applications, TGA appeals, and applications to modify existing approvals. In collaboration with the
TGA and on behalf of pharmaceutical companies, Phillip also directed 2 major drug withdrawals in
relation to public safety. More recently Phillip has been a senior clinical trial and regulatory affairs
advisor to an Australian company which has developed a live virus for the treatment of melanoma.

TITLE OF REPORT:
SECTION 2: ADVERSE EVENTS AND DEATHS REPORTED TO TGA DAENS, AUSTRALIA FOLLOWING
COVID-19 VACCINES BETWEEN 1 FEBRUARY 2021 TO 8 JUNE 2022 HIGHLIGHTING DEATHS AND
ADVERSE EVENTS IN CHILDREN 5-11 YRS OLD.
1 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
1.1 I have conducted a number of reviews of the Therapeutic Goods Administration’s (TGA)
published adverse events as recorded in the Database of Adverse Event Notifications (DAENs)
database to 8 June 2022, specifically following the COVID-19 Vaccines entries in that database
and I confirm that:
a since 10 January 2022, there were 1,390 Adverse Events and 5 Deaths reported for the 5-
11 year age group since the roll out of the Pfizer Vaccine commenced.
b since 1 February 2021, there have been at least 108,542 Adverse Events and 723 Deaths
reported in adolescents and adults since the roll out of the Covid-19 Vaccines.
c since 1 February 2021, that together, there have been at least 131,991 Adverse Events
following Covid-19 Vaccines reported in all ages.
d since 1 February 2021, together there have been at least 884 total Deaths as the reported
outcome following immunisation in all ages. and including unspecified ages,
1.2 By comparison, I have also reviewed the TGA weekly safety reports to 5 June 2022. The TGA
reports record that there were:
a 1,470 Adverse Events in 5-11 year olds following 2.2M doses of Pfizer Vaccine.

Adverse Events:
a) Adverse Events are defined by the TGA as unintended and sometimes harmful occur-
rences associated with the use of a medicine, vaccine or medical device (collectively
known as therapeutic goods). Adverse events include side effects to medicines and vac-
cines, and problems or incidents involving medical devices.
b) Examples of adverse events are any unfavourable and unintended sign, symptom or dis-
ease associated with the use of a therapeutic good.
d) Adverse Events reported to the TGA have been classified by MedDRA classification
which includes Organ affected and type of reaction. One Adverse Event case can affect
many organs and reaction types can include many MedDRA Classifications.
e) Adverse events are defined by the Australian institute of Health and Welfare as
‘incidents in which harm resulted to a person receiving health care’. There is no
definition included on the TGA web site.
f) Importantly, an adverse event is not always caused by the therapeutic good itself. The
occurrence of an adverse event does not necessarily mean that there is something
wrong with the therapeutic good.
Ages:
• Children: Individuals whose ages are 5-11 years.
• Babies/infants: 0-4years
• Unspecified: Age is left blank or marked with a hyphen –
• Adolescents: 12-18
• Adults 19 years and over
Covid-19 Vaccines: There are 4 vaccines that are being administered in Australia. They
include:
• Pfizer Comirnaty Covid-19 vaccine (Pfizer Vaccine)
• Covid-19 vaccine Astra Zeneca
• *Nuvaxovid (Moderna) Covid-19 Vaccine
• Spikevax (Moderna) Covid-19 Vaccine
• TNS DAENs database record for Covid-19 Vaccine Type Not Specified.
45
Database of Adverse Event Notifications (DAEN): “The TGA receives Adverse Event reports
associated with medicines and medical devices. These reports come from a wide range of
sources, including members of the public, general practitioners, nurses, other health
professionals and the therapeutic goods industry and are” stored in an online database.
Source: https://www.tga.gov.au/database-adverse-event-notifications-daen
Deaths: Associated with the TGA reporting, this refers to the number of cases where death
was a reported outcome following immunisation from the DAEN website. It should be noted
that this does not necessarily imply causality. Also, to determine deaths in TGA DAENs website
is quite a convoluted process because the death MedDRA item category has been removed
and so one cannot simply search for deaths.
Please find a complete listing of MedDRA items using the following link.
https://1drv.ms/b/s!Al71AGIGLVVzgUj3L1lBYHafccTF?e=sKvJS2
Pfizer Vaccine: is the Comirnaty Covid-19 Vaccine as described in DAENs for all age groups.
The Pfizer Vaccine was provisionally approved Covid-19 Vaccine for 5-11 year olds. It was
approved by the TGA on 5 December 2021. Roll out of the Pfizer Vaccine for 5-11 year olds
commenced on or about 10 January 2022.
46
3.1 In SECTION 1, all the questions relating to the COVID-19 vaccines ask for figures for each COVID
vaccine type from date of approval to the report date.
While the work underlying this report was begun by me around 6 January 2022, the data I
collected was for 2021, and as such, I have a hard end to the year 2021 (31 Dec 2021).
Further, it appears that when the database is searched for each vaccine type from date of
approval to end of 2021, and then when one adds the results, I do not get the same answer
as I do when I search the entire database, all at once, using all 4 vaccines and the dates 1 Jan
2021 and 31 Dec 2021.
For simplicity, I have used this search as my master data search. All the COVID results will
balance to that master data (I cannot explain why this phenomenon exists but suffice it to say,
it goes to data integrity). I will demonstrate this in the following report.
A search for Pfizer, AstraZeneca, Moderna and unspecified, reveals the following information:
• Pfizer 25/01/2021 to 31/12/2021
▫ No. of cases 52,695
▫ No. of cases with a single suspected medicine 51,641
▫ No. of cases where death was a reported outcome 264
Source: Appendix 2.2 - DAEN Results for Individual COVID Vaccines (Including Unspecified Type) with
Index, page 2-10
• AstraZeneca 16/02/201 to 31/12/2021
▫ No. of cases 43,874
▫ No. of cases with a single suspected medicine 43,108
▫ No. of cases where death was a reported outcome 439
47
Source: Appendix 2.2 - DAEN Results for Individual COVID Vaccines (Including Unspecified Type) with Index, page
20-28
• Unspecified COVID vaccines 01/01/2021 to 31/12/2021
▫ No. of cases 465
▫ No. of cases with a single suspected medicine 446
▫ No. of cases where death was a reported outcome 25
Source: Appendix 2.2 - DAEN Results for Individual COVID Vaccines (Including Unspecified Type) with Index, page
29-37
• Total for all COVID vaccines plus unspecified COVID vaccines is:
▫ No. of cases 100,268
▫ No. of cases with a single suspected medicine 98,375
▫ No. of cases where death was a reported outcome 735
It is important to note that when I search for all COVID vaccines including unspecified for the period
01/01/2021 to 31/12/2021 I get:
▫ No. of cases: 100,180
▫ No. of cases with a single suspected medicine 98,399
▫ No. of cases where death was a reported outcome 733
48
3.2 In the entirety of this report, whenever I refer to deaths associated with the Therapeutic
Goods Administration (TGA) reporting, I am referring to the number of cases where death was
a reported outcome from the Database of Adverse Event Notifications (DAEN) website.
a The data in this report is dated from 1 February 2021 when the Covid-19 Vaccines became
available until to 8 June 2022, being the last date the DEANs data was updated and when
I was briefed to provide this further report.
b The data was extracted by me from the TGA DAENs system over three days: Wednesday
22 June 2022; Thursday 23 June 2022; and Friday 24 June 2022.
c Despite the TGA website stating that its numbers are up to date as at 8 June 2022, which
is 2 weeks before 22 June (first day of data extraction), and 9 June (second day of data
extraction), the same search of the data on Wednesday 22 June and then Thursday 23
June produces different numbers. This is an issue I have identified in my previous
reports.
d The TGA safety reports contain further information than the DAENs database, such as
vaccine doses. I also used the TGA safety reports to cross check the results obtained from
DAENs.
e The TGA safety report as at 9 June 2022 includes data predominantly up to the 5 June
2022. The numbers in DAENs and those in the TGA safety report for Adverse Events are
comparable, I summarise the TGA safety report Adverse Events by vaccine doses further
in my response under Item 5 below.
3.4 All questions that I have answered have been advised by a letter of instruction from the
instructing legal experts. The questions are integrated into the document.
3.5 Underreporting.
a) As reporting to the TGA Daen’s database is voluntary there is a question regarding data
coverage.
49
c) Whilst not perfect, the suspected underreporting to the DAEN system can be approxi-
mately validated by referring to the Ausvax website and then using their publicly availa-
ble information on the number of adverse events that they are reporting within 3-7 days
of vaccines being administered. Source: Ausvax - https://ausvaxsafety.org.au (Monitors adverse
events that occur within 3-7 days after vaccination)
d) The comparison above suggests that underreporting to the DAEN website is at least
90%: that is, they are reporting a maximum of 10% of adverse events and not reporting
some 90% of adverse events (as a minimum).
3.6 Appendices. Throughout this document you will see many references to appendices. These
appendices amount to many hundreds of pages and as such are not included with this
document. If there is a need for specific appendices to be accessed, please advise and I can
make links available.
50
The Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA) receives reports of adverse events associated with
medicines and medical devices in Australia. That data it collects is accessible via the Database of
Adverse Event Notifications (DAEN) on the TGA website. Please use the DAEN data, and only that data,
to answer the following questions, except where otherwise stated. In answering the below questions,
please indicate the relevant pages of the DAEN data which you have used in order to answer each
question:
My Answer:
The number of adverse events from 1 Jan 1971 until 31 Dec 2021 is 19,330. On the
DAEN search engine, type “vaccine” on the first field. Next, select all vaccines, and then
deselect the following COVID-19 vaccines so as to exclude them from the search:
● COMIRNATY COVID-19 vaccine
● COVID-19 Vaccine (TNS)
● COVID-19 Vaccine AstraZeneca
● Spikevax COVID-19 vaccine
There should be a total of 76 medicines, but this may change depending on the year.
The search process was undertaken by year starting 1971 until 2021. Below is the
search result for the entire year of 1971. The search results for the other years until
2021 can be found in Appendix 1.
51
ii) How many reports of death were made between 1971 and the date of your report?
Please set out the process by which you have come to your view.
My Answer:
There were 59 reported deaths from 1971 to 2021. The same search process as the
number of adverse events yields results for the number of deaths in the said period.
Please refer to the search results shown above.
Sources:
• DAEN Search Engine: https://apps.tga.gov.au/PROD/DAEN/daen-report.aspx
• Appendix 1 - DAEN Bundle (System Organ Class) with Index 20.01.22, pages 672-1382: adding the
data from individual years from 1971 to 2021 totals 59 deaths.
• Appendix 3 – Annual Tally of Non-COVID Adverse Events and Deaths 1971-2021, pages 1-3: this is
a manual tally in reference to the individual searches per year in Appendix 1.
2. For the three following vaccines which have been provisionally approved by the TGA in relation to
Covid-19, being;
a. Pfizer;
b. AstraZeneca; and
c. Moderna;
i) How many reports of adverse events were made between the date each vaccine was
provisionally approved and the date of your report? Please set out the process by
which you have come to your view.
My Answer:
Initially, I started searching by COVID vaccine type, however, I soon realized that
searching by individual COVID vaccine type from date of provisional approval, to the
end of 2021, and adding them up did not give the same result as the search if all were
done together and I used the blanket dates 1 Jan 2021 to 31 Dec 2021. I determined
to go with the 4 vaccine types and the blanket dates as our master data (as per intro
to report). The number of adverse events in total for the 4 vaccines from 1 Jan 2021 to
31 Dec 2021 was 100,180 cases, no of cases with a single suspected medicine were
98,399 and no of deaths were 733. (You can see that the information from each
vaccine type is incomplete. It is also inconsistent with the 4-vaccine approach). See
search results below:
52
53
On the DAEN search engine, select the vaccine on the “medicine” field. Adjust the date
range accordingly. Here, I am using the 31st of December 2021 as the end date and
the start date is the date of provisional approval for the Covid-19 vaccine in question.
ii) How many reports of death were made between the date each vaccine was provision-
ally approved and the date of your report? Please set out the process by which you
have come to your view.
My Answer:
● COMIRNATY COVID-19 vaccine (Pfizer): 265 cases where death was a reported
outcome
● COVID-19 Vaccine AstraZeneca: 439 cases where death was a reported outcome
● Spikevax COVID-19 vaccine (Moderna): 7 cases where death was a reported out-
come
The data was taken from Appendix 1 and totals 711 cases where death was a reported
outcome. Note that this is for the three (3) aforementioned vaccines only.
However, as per the DAEN search engine, there is a fourth type of COVID vaccine,
medicine name: COVID-19 Vaccine (TNS).This stands for Type Not Specified. I included
this upon pulling out information and found a total of 733 cases where death was a
reported outcome, as opposed to the total of 711 which is the sum of only three (3)
COVID vaccines. Actually, I also ran the unspecified vaccine by itself and I found that
when I added that to the above individual vaccines I reported 735 deaths, and not 733.
I have elected to use the 733 as our master data.
54
The same search process as the number of adverse events yields results for the deaths
related to COVID-19 vaccines. Please refer to the search results shown above.
Note – Pfizer was provisionally approved on 25 January 2021; AstraZeneca was provisionally
approved on 16 February 2021; Moderna was provisionally approved on 9 August 2021.
3. Has there been a significant increase in adverse event reports when comparing all other vaccines in
the DAEN to Pfizer, AstraZeneca and Moderna? Please set out the process by which you have come to
your view.
My Answer:
Yes, there has been a significant increase in adverse events. Comparing the search results on DAEN,
the non-COVID vaccines are at 19,330 adverse events from 1971 until 2021 (50-year range), whereas
the COVID-vaccines in the year 2021 alone already had a total of 100,180 reported adverse events.
Refer to Appendix 2 - DAEN results for COVID Vaccine (including Unspecified type). Refer to search
results presented in questions 1 and 2.

4. Has there been a significant increase in reports of death when comparing all other vaccines in the
DAEN to Pfizer, AstraZeneca and Moderna? Please set out the process by which you have come to
your view.
My Answer:
Yes, there has been a significant increase in cases where death was a reported outcome. Comparing
the search results on DAEN, the non-COVID vaccines are at 59 cases where death was a reported
outcome from 1971 until 2021 (50-year range), whereas the COVID-vaccines in the calendar year 2021
alone already had a total of 733 cases where death was a reported outcome. Refer to search results
presented in questions 1 and 2. I present this data in the following chart from 2010:
Sources:
• Appendix 1 – DAEN Bundle (System Organ Class) with Index 20.01.22
• Appendix 2.1 – DAEN results for COVID Vaccine (including Unspecified type)
• Appendix 3 – Annual Tally of Non-COVID Adverse Events and Deaths 1971-2021
56
My Answer:
From 2010 to 2020 the likelihood of someone having an Adverse Event as the result of a vaccine was
of the order of 1 in every 10,000 doses. It is 1.1 number of doses using the incomplete number of doses
data (see Graph 1) and 0.9 using an estimate for total doses (see Graph 2). In 2021 as the result of
COVID vaccinations, I can now expect 23 Adverse Events in every 10,000 doses. I set this data out in
the below charts:
Graph 1 – Labelled data is based on incomplete data for total non-COVID cases
Sources:
• No. of adverse events: Appendix 3 - Annual Tally of Non-COVID Adverse Events and Deaths 1971-2021
• No of COVID vaccine doses: Appendix 6 – No. of COVID Doses by Vaccine
• No of non-COVID vaccine doses: Surveillance of Adverse Events following immunization, annual reports for 2010 to 2019
57
Refer to search results presented in questions 1 and 2. Note that the non-COVID vaccine adverse events
are from 1971 to 2021, while COVID vaccine adverse events are for the year 2021 only.
6. How much more likely is it for a death to be reported to the TGA from Pfizer, AstraZeneca and/or
Moderna than it is from all other vaccines in the DAEN combined? Please set out the process by which
you have come to your view.
My Answer:
The number of cases where death was a reported outcome to the TGA, associated with a non-COVID
vaccine from 2010 to 2021 was 29, or an average of 2.4 deaths per annum vs 733 in 2021 associated
with COVID vaccines. This is an increase of 30,442%. It is represented by the below chart.
58
Given the size of the increase reported above, another source of deaths associated with vaccines has
been located. The Surveillance of Adverse Events following Immunisation in Australia, Annual Reports
from 2010 to 2019, report 31 deaths associated with vaccines over 10 years which is an average of 3.1
deaths per annum. (Author: The Department of Health, Australian Federal Government) It would
appear that the TGA reports of death and the annual report referred to above are inconsistent in the
no. of deaths that they report. (Both are, however, reporting on the deaths as a result of adverse events
and claim to use the DAEN TGA website as their source of information.)
From 2010 to 2021, the likelihood of death from an adverse reaction to a vaccine was 0.22 to 0.27 per
million doses (approx. 1 death every 4 million doses). As a result of COVID doses in 2021, I have had 17
deaths per million doses. As a consequence, COVID vaccines are 69 times more likely to result in death
as a reported outcome than traditional vaccines. (If I use the death figures from the Surveillance of
Adverse Events after immunisation in Australia, annual reports from 2010 to 2019, referred to
previously, this shows around 0.463 deaths per million doses or 1 death every 2 million doses. This
makes the covid vaccines 36 times more likely to result in deaths as aa reported outcome than
traditional vaccines).
59
7. How do deaths reported to the TGA from Pfizer, AstraZeneca and Moderna compare to deaths
recorded in association with Covid-19 itself? You may also refer to data from the Australian Bureau of
Statistics to answer this question. Please set out the process by which you have come to your view.
My Answer:
The Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS) reports 773 deaths from COVID from January to October 2021
albeit 2 months short of the entire year. In the last 2 weeks of January 2022,when this report was being
written, the number of cases where death was a reported outcome, associated with a COVID vaccine
in 2021 have increased from 704 to 733. This is reported in the below chart:
60
The ABS reports that the total deaths from COVID Jan 2020 to Oct 2021 were 1671. They also report
that the total deaths from COVID in 2020 were 832. Therefore, the total deaths from COVID Jan 2021
to Oct 2021 were 773.

8. What are the most significant categories, or types, of adverse events reported to the TGA for all
vaccines except for Pfizer, AstraZeneca and Moderna from 1971 to the date of this report? Please set
out the process by which you have come to your view.
My Answer:
The top 5 Categories of Deaths by Organ reported to the TGA from 1971 to 2021 non-COVID were
General Disorders and Administrative Site Conditions, Nervous System Disorders, Infections and
Infestations, Investigations (undefined by TGA), Respiratory Thoracic and Mediastinal. The top 5
represent 57% of all Deaths by Organ reports. This is represented in the chart below:
62
9. What are the most significant categories, or types, of adverse events reported to the TGA for Pfizer,
AstraZeneca and Moderna? How many more categories, or types, of adverse event reports have been
reported to the TGA in relation to Pfizer, AstraZeneca and Moderna than have been reported for all
other vaccines combined? Please set out the process by which you have come to your view.
My Answer:
The Top 5 Categories of Deaths by Organ reported to the TGA for 2021 related to Covid vaccines were
Nervous System Disorders, General Disorders and Administrative Site Conditions, Respiratory Thoracic
and Mediastinal Disorders, Cardiac Disorders and Injury Poisoning and Procedural complications.
These categories account for 58.8% of all Death by organ reports. This is represented in the chart
below:
63
10. Have there been any significant increases in categories, or types, of adverse event reports to the
TGA since the provisional approval of Pfizer, AstraZeneca and Moderna?
My Answer:
The number of adverse events reported to the TGA in 2021 is 100,180 relating to COVID vaccines. In
summarizing these adverse events by disease type, one event can be reported as many
diseases/conditions. I now have a list of 3,122 disease types, more than double the number of different
conditions that were reported prior to COVID vaccines. See table below:
64
The number of non-COVID adverse events reported to the TGA from 1971 to 2021 was 19,330. In
summarizing these adverse events by disease type, one event can be reported as many
diseases/conditions. For the last 20 years, I have been able to incorporate all conditions in a list of
1,492 different conditions. See table below:
Source:
• Appendix 4 - Instructions_TGA DAEN Download (*note: to create the above chart, I had to work out how to download
the data into a format that allowed us to analyse it; the steps I took are in Appendix 4; the data was sourced from DAEN
TGA website on Tue, 25th of Jan 2022)
The Specific Reaction types associated with Adverse Events of Myocarditis, Pericarditis, Guillain-Barre
Syndrome, Immune Thrombocytopenia, Thrombosis with Thrombocytopenia Syndrome, and Abortions
and Spontaneous miscarriages have been analysed to compare their frequency for non-COVID 1971 to
2021 and Covid 2021 vaccines. All categories increased significantly.
65
66
11. Do you have any final observations on comments to make as the result of undertaking this analysis.
As a final remark, I note that in addition to generating more adverse events and generating more
disease types, COVID vaccines are generating more Reaction Reports than seen before by traditional
vaccines.
In fact, the TGA is seeing more Adverse Event Reaction reports in 2021, than they have seen in the
entire 50 years since 1971.
(This is separate and different to Adverse Event Cases. It says that each Non-Covid 1971 to 2021
Adverse Event Case would have included on average of 2.27 MedDRA reactions per event. Covid
Vaccines 2021 include an average of 3.26 reactions per event. Refer table above for examples of Major
Organ classes and Adverse Event Reaction Types.)

SECTION 2: ADVERSE EVENTS AND DEATHS REPORTED TO TGA DAENS, AUSTRALIA FOLLOWING
COVID-19 VACCINES BETWEEN 1 FEBRUARY 2021 TO 8 JUNE 2022 HIGHLIGHTING DEATHS AND
ADVERSE EVENTS IN CHILDREN 5-11 YRS OLD. Section 6 onwards.
68
6.1 Since 10 January 2022, 135 deaths following Covid-19 Vaccines are recorded on the DAENs
database for all ages.
6.2 Since 10 January 2022, 5 Deaths were reported in children 5-11 in DAENs since the roll-out of
Covid-19 Vaccines began for this age group.
6.3 Details of these Deaths are set out in Table 1 below. Five screenshots are included in
Schedule B to this report. These screenshots are from the DAENs website for each death
reported in the 5-11 age cohort since the roll out of the Pfizer Vaccine began. Each
screenshot (on the left hand side) confirms “death as a reported outcome” from “a single
medicine”, namely a Covid-19 Vaccine.
6.5 The DAENs website also routinely reports Deaths where no age is specified. At the time of
producing this report, 90 of the 135 Deaths sampled (14 or 15.6%) had no age specified. It is
possible that some of these Deaths where the age is not specified may also fall within the age
cohort 5-11 years. I have included a further discussion of these Deaths in my response to Item
3 (below).
69
7.1 Since 10 January 2022, 27,742 Adverse Events were reported following Covid-19 Vaccines in
all ages. This number includes the 135 Death reports reported in Item 1 (6.1) above (in all
ages).
7.2 In 5-11 year olds, 1,390 Adverse Events have been reported by DAENs following Covid-19
Vaccines.
7.3 Table 2 below shows breakdown of Adverse Events from 10 January 2022 to 8 June 2022 by
Covid-19 Vaccine type for 5-11 year olds (and includes Deaths). The Pfizer and Spikevax
(Maderna) Vaccine are the only provisionally approved Covid-19 Vaccines for the 5-11 and 6-
11 year old group, respectively. I am not able to explain why there are 5-11 year olds that
received Covid-19 Vaccines not provisionally approved for their age.
Vaccine Type Number of Reports (Cases) Number of cases with a Number of cases where
Adverse Events single suspected Death was a reported
medicine outcome
Pfizer Comirnaty 1371 N/A 5
Astra Zeneca 3 N/A 0
Covid-19 TNS 6 N/A 0
Spikevax 10 N/A 0
Nuvaxovid - 0
7.4 DAENs also records 28 Adverse Events in 5-11 year olds prior to 10 January 2022, when the
Covid-19 Vaccines were rolled out to this age group. I have included details about these 28
reports in Schedule C to this report. These reports begin at 29 September 2021. I cannot
explain why children received the Covid-19 Vaccines before they were provisionally approved
and rolled out to this age group. Nor can I explain why they received Covid-19 Vaccines not
provisionally approved for this age group.
7.5 Note, since 10 January 2022 there are 5,221 Adverse Events in DAENs where no age range is
specified. Absent that detail from the DAENs database, it is not possible for me to say whether
there are more Adverse Events in the 5-11 year old age cohort. I have dealt with this further
under Item 4 below.
Source: DAENs 10 January 2022 to 8 June 2022 https://1drv.ms/x/s!Al71AGIGLVVzgk90LkH0sKUeqH9b?e=0Y6AZ0
70
7.7 Table 3 below shows the top 10 Adverse Events reaction types being reported in 5-11 year
olds following Covid-19 Vaccines. These top 10 Adverse Events represent 1,327 reactions or
37% (1,327/3,635) of Total Adverse Event reactions being reported in children aged 5-11 years
of age.
7.8 Table 4 below shows the number of Adverse Events reactions by the organ affected. The top
10 organs affected (down to cardiac disorders) represent 89% of all reactions reported by
DAENs in 5-11 year olds following Covid-19 Vaccine.
71
7.9 Following is Table 5, that lists Potentially Serious Adverse Events in children 5-11 years. The
DAENs Adverse Event Database does not advise which events are serious. The TGA does report
on serious adverse events in their weekly reports. The specific adverse events which are
considered serious are not specifically identified. As such, in absence of information from the
TGA, I have assessed and interpret the following reaction types to be potentially serious. This
is my assessment as this detail is not information provided in DAENs or by the TGA.
72
73
8.1 Since 1 February 2021, 884 Deaths have been reported in the DAENs database following
Covid- 19 Vaccines (all ages).
8.2 After removal of the Deaths in 5-11 year olds, that leaves 879 Deaths reported in DAENs.
8.3 As mentioned, in Item 1 above, there are a number of reports of Death in DAENs where no
age is specified. I have reviewed in excess of 90% of these deaths and 147 of them had no age
detailed against them. That is 17.6% of the Deaths did not have an age specified, so I have
extrapolated that to be 156 Deaths out of the total 884 Deaths (all ages) where no age is
specified.
Source: Death Sample link https://1drv.ms/x/s!Al71AGIGLVVzgkwl1C85ztAq5BTW?e=nz49ZT
8.4 Therefore, from the DAENs data, there are 723 deaths that have been reported in adolescents
and adults following Covid-19 Vaccines (after removal of the unspecified age Deaths and
Deaths in 5-11 year olds).
8.5 Table 6 below sets out the Deaths reported on the DAENs website following Covid-19
Vaccines per age cohort is set out as follows:
74
9.1 Since 1 February 2021, there were 131,991 Adverse Events reported in DAENs following Covid-
19 Vaccines (all ages), as per the “Number of reports (cases)” in the screenshot from the
DAENs website below:
Screenshot 1: Adverse Events reported in DAENs following Covid-19 Vaccines (all ages)
9.2 Of those Adverse Events reported, the DAENs database states 129,244 are “with a single
medicine”. That is the Adverse Event was following a single medication, ie Covid-19 Vaccine.
I do not use this number for my analysis.
9.3 Separately, I have reviewed the Adverse Events by Covid-19 Vaccine and have set these figures
out in Table 7 below.
75
9.4 The number of Adverse Event “report (cases)” on the DAENs website is 131,991 (screenshot
1 above). This number is different to the number of Adverse Events I tallied up by each Covid-
19 Vaccine type by 393 events. From the data, I am not able to explain this difference.
9.5 The number of Deaths I tallied up by Covid-19 Vaccine type is 885 and is also different to the
number of Deaths reported on the DAENs website (884) (screenshot 1 above). From the data,
I am not able to explain this difference.
9.6 Of the 132,384 Adverse Events reported since 1 February 2021 in DAENs, there were 22,007
Adverse Events that were unspecified in terms of age. I have set these out in Table 8.
9.7 As explained under Item 3 above, unspecified means that the age range was left blank or
noted with hyphens. These Adverse Events therefore could cover any age.
9.8 Links to the original source data set to derive unspecified Adverse Events follows. This data
set also provided adverse events in infants 0-4 and children 5-11.

76
9.10 There are somewhere between 108,570 and 108,963 Adverse Events from 1 February 2021 to
8 June 2022 which have been reported by the TGA as relating to adolescents and adults
following Covid-19 Vaccine. This includes the 28 Adverse Events in 5-11 year olds which
occurred prior to 10 January 2022 (as detailed in Schedule C to this report). Removing the
Adverse Events in 5-11 year olds prior to roll out of Covid-19 Vaccines to this age group, leaves
108,542 and 108,935 Adverse Events in adolescents and adults.
77
78
10.1 In my previous reports, I have compared reporting of Adverse Events in NON-covid Vaccines
to Covid-19 Vaccines. On 31 January 2022, the likelihood of someone having an Adverse Event
as the result of a NON-Covid Vaccine (between 2010-2020) was 1 in every 10,000 doses. With
Covid-19 Vaccines the likelihood of someone having an Adverse Events as the result of the
vaccine was 23 Adverse Events per 10,000 doses as at 31 January 2022. This is highlighted in
Table 10 below.
10.2 Using the TGA’s more up to date data, the likelihood now of someone having an adverse event
as the result of a Covid-19 vaccine as at 5 June 2022 is 21.87 Adverse Events per 10,000 doses.
This is 20 times worse than Non-covid times and is reasonably consistent with the Adverse
Events I was reporting on at the end of January 2022.
