The covid vaccine and increased cases of myocarditis
We have day 2 of how the vaccine affects our body long term. My favorite scientist Walter Chestnut offers up a great discussion for this today! https://wmcresearch.substack.com/p/the-spike-protein-superantigen-myocarditis?s=r
OK. So yesterdays post about how damage to the vessels does play a role in cardiac dysfunction in covid vaccine injured. Our heart is made up of many large and small vessels, and that same F-actin dump into the body can damage cardiac vessels as well, leading to clots and ischemic cardiac events. To help with today’s discussion, we need to define what a superantigen is. A superantigen is a pathogen (usually bacterial) that causes a massive and excessive immune response in the body. Microbial proteins that interact with the body in a unique and excessive manner. Causing a massive body response to the offending agent (cytokine storm). The immune system goes berserk to defend the body from the offending agent, and in the process it is over-stimulated, and our own immune response becomes dangerous to us. So what is happening in vaccine induced myocarditis? The spike protein is seen as a “superantigen” by the body.
So what causes myocarditis? Usually, it is a viral infection. So what about the covid vaccine causes myocarditis? The MRNA protein in the vaccine becomes a superantigen in the body. Which is odd, because that superantigen response is usually due to a bacteria, not a virus. Superantigens cause all kinds of mayhem in the body. They link up to T-cells (memory immune cells) and cause a massive immune response in the body. This leads to hyper-inflammation in the body, and can cascade into cytokine storm. The SARS COV-2 spike protein contains a genetic sequence similar to the Cocksackie virus, which is also a superantigen, and it is hypothesized that when the body sees the spike protein MRNA sequence, it starts defending the body as it would during a Cocksackie virus. In severe cases, it leads to cytokine storm in adults, and multi-system inflammatory syndrome in children, and in other cases it leads to myocarditis in children and adults mostly under age 50. We see it happening primarily in males, usually under age 30. During the body defense during a virus, the cardiac damage/myocarditis happens. How is this happening from a protein sequence in a vaccine!!!! The spike protein itself is viewed by the body as a superantigen that it needs to fight off.
Per the article above, “Myocarditis exhibits a wide spectrum of clinical manifestations, ranging from essentially asymptomatic, transient heart inflammation to severe congestive heart failure, dysrhythmias, and death. The overall prognosis of myocarditis in children remains poor. In a comprehensive study, only 7 of 34 patients (21%) had resolution of their myocarditis illness. Despite intensive support, the overall mortality was 62%. Furthermore, myocarditis is a major cause of sudden, unexpected death in adults <40 years old, with ≈20% of such individuals dying of this disease. There is substantial evidence that viral and/or inflammatory myocarditis can progress to idiopathic dilated cardiomyopathy which, second to ischemic heart disease, is the most common indication for heart transplantation.”
The occurrence of myocarditis is not rare, nor is it mild. Remember the pediatrician’s office photo I posted about sports physicals? How any vaccinated child needs to have labs and cardiac testing before the pediatrician will clear them for sports release? You know myocarditis is more common and severe if these warnings are coming out. Because most of you parents will remember how easy it was to get a sports physical PRIOR to covid. You go in, they check a few boxes, weigh the kiddo, ask a few questions, and out the door you go with your sports physical release. This warning sign would not be going up if myocarditis was rare and mild. Moving forward, anyone who has been vaccinated and needs a sports physical should demand a full medical, labs, and cardiac work-up because, as stated above, myocarditis can be asymptomatic until you are in the middle of a sporting event and your heart is working harder and suddenly, it is not asymptomatic anymore. If you are an athlete and have been vaccinated, you should most certainly have a full cardiac work-up to make sure you do not have asymptomatic myocarditis.
