More deaths are linked to AstraZeneca’s vaccine – the cause found according to Norwegian experts

The list of countries stopping AstraZeneca's vaccine continues to increase after the vaccine was linked to serious side effects and a number of deaths. A Norwegian expert group consisting of doctors who examined three affected healthcare workers, one of whom died after taking the vaccine, has now been able to determine the cause that could cause the vaccine to be fatal.

    According to Norwegian tabloid Verdens Gang (VG), a Norwegian expert group of doctors has been able to determine the cause behind the reported alarming side effects that led to a number of people becoming seriously ill, and which explains the increasing number of deaths that are directly linked to AstraZeneca’s vaccine.

    The link could be established after three healthcare workers who took the vaccine, all under the age of 50 and without belonging to risk groups, became seriously ill shortly after the vaccination. One of the patients died just a few days later. An expert group at Rikshospitalet has investigated why the three healthcare employees had severe blood clots after being vaccinated.

    “The cause of our patients’ condition has now been found,” said the chief physician and professor Pål Andre Holme to VG. The patients came to the hospital with acute pain and had blood clots in unusual places such as the stomach and brain. They also had bleeding and a low platelet count. The woman who died was under the age of 50 and like the others who fell ill, she had no reason to develop the sudden severe symptoms. The only common factor was that they had been vaccinated with AstraZeneca’s vaccine shortly before. The woman who died had received her vaccination earlier last week, was admitted to a local hospital on Thursday and was transferred to Rikshospitalet later.

    The leading hypothesis of the leading experts was that the vaccine triggered a strong and unexpected immune reaction in the individuals, and after extensive testing, the Norwegian experts were able to establish that this was indeed the case.

    “We had a theory that this is a strong immune reaction that most likely came after the vaccine and we have now come to the conclusion that it is so,” said the chief physician. The problem behind the strong immune response is specific antibodies. There is no other explanation behind the immune reaction, according to Holme.

    “We have no other history in these patients that can cause such a strong immune response. I am absolutely certain that it is these antibodies that are the cause, and see no other reason than that it is the vaccine that triggers it.”

    The Norwegian expert group was able to show that it was specific antibodies not all antibodies. “We take vaccines to get an immune response to what we are to be protected against. Then you develop, among other things, antibodies. Some antibodies can then react to activate the platelets, as in these cases, and cause blood clots,” Holme told VG.

    The Norwegian woman is not the only one whose death could have been linked directly to AstraZeneca’s vaccine. Last week it also emerged that a 60-year-old woman died of a blood clot and suffered from very serious symptoms, according to Danish outlet DR. An Italian man, music teacher Sandro Tognatti, 57, also died the day after taking the vaccine, prompting Italy to stop the vaccine immediately.

    At least seven people have suffered blood clots in the brain in Germany and three of them have died after taking the vaccine. It is part of the ongoing investigation that led Germany to stop AstraZeneca’s vaccine. However, the German Minister of Health Jens Spahn also says that the halt is a “pure precaution”. In Bulgaria, a death has also been reported which has also led to a suspension of the continued mass vaccination plan with the AstraZeneca vaccine. Countries outside Europe have also begun stopping vaccination with AstraZeneca’s vaccine, including Indonesia, the Democratic Republic of Congo and Venezuela.

    Last week Sweden, Latvia, Italy, France, Spain and the Netherlands halted the rollout. The World Health Organization (WHO) nevertheless continues to recommend vaccination with AstraZeneca. European Commissioner Hans Kluge says that the benefits of the vaccine outweigh all possible risks and that it should continue to be used.

    The European Medicines Agency has however decided to resume vaccination with AstraZeneca’s vaccine, despite the fact that Norwegian doctors stand by their conclusion that a connection between the blood clots and the vaccine cannot be ruled out.

    The EU announced on March 18 that the vaccine was “safe” and that vaccination will therefore be resumed. The EU does not deny the Norwegian doctors’ conclusions, but believes that the benefits of the vaccine far outweigh the risks, Swedish news outlet SVT reported.

    The Danish Medicines Agency has meanwhile sent out a letter to all Danes who have received the vaccine in the last 14 days stating which symptoms the vaccinated should be aware of and which could indicate that there is a risk of blood clots:

    Severe headache.
    Severe abdominal pain
    A leg feels cold.
    Suddenly and unexpected pain in some part of the body.
    Hard to breathe.
    Paralysis in one side of the body.

    They have now also come out with an extended list of other symptoms to keep track of:

    Multiple and newly acquired major bruises and / or multiple punctate hemorrhages in skin / mucous membranes (e.g. in the mouth)
    nosebleeds that are difficult to stop
    Swelling, redness or pronounced tenderness in the leg or arm (not locally around the injection site)
    Sudden shortness of breath and / or chest pain.
    Symptoms such as pain in the arm where you have received the jab, fever and fatigue are common and something you should expect after a vaccination.

    DESTRUCTIVE HAILSTORMS will become more frequent and violent with increasingly larger hail, predicted solar researcher Valentina Zharkova back in 2019 when she stated that it's one of many signs of an impending Grand Solar Minimum. This is exactly what we have witnessed this year in both Europe and the world. Here is the German town of Benediktbeuern in Bavaria after a hailstorm on August 26th. Almost all rooftops and cars were damaged. The centuries-old church and monastery were damaged for the first time ever. Interestingly, the monastery was rebuilt in 1699 during the Maunder Minimum. Combined with heavy rainfall, extreme weather will devastate a significant portion of our food production. For instance, heavy rainfall destroyed a quarter of all crops in Greece in just two days in September. However, mainstream media remains silent. Photo: X @safe0007/Sandor Feher

    NOAA Predicts Zero Sunspots for Almost the Whole 2030s

    CLIMATEThe United States' government scientific organization, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), predicts zero sunspots from 2031 to 2040. This is an extreme situation that has not occurred in as long as humanity has been counting sunspots, and it leads us into uncharted territory in terms of our solar system. However, this prediction aligns with the warnings of the world-renowned solar researcher Valentina Zharkova for many years, who indicated in 2019 various signs of this catastrophic phenomenon, including the extreme hailstorms we have seen in Europe and the world this summer. The forecast and various observations this year give cause for very significant concern. In this unique analysis, Free West Media explains why.

    NATIONALIST COLLABORATION TAKES SHAPE. Six parties met in Budapest on August 26th to sign a joint declaration confirming the friendship and political unity among the parties.

    European Nationalist Parties Forge Cooperation Ahead of EU Elections

    EUROPEAN ELECTIONSOn Saturday, August 26, representatives of six European nationalist parties gathered in Budapest. The meeting was initiated by the Hungarian party Mi Hazánk and took place in the national parliament. Representatives of the parties signed a joint declaration that not only reaffirms the parties' friendship but also their unity on a range of complex political issues. A surprisingly clear and radical manifesto was established. The hope is that this cooperation will lead to success in the EU elections and eventually result in the formation of a group in the European Parliament. For Swedish nationalism, this meeting marks a success as Sweden, for the first time, has a party represented in a leading nationalist cooperation in Europe. Free West Media was present at this historic event.

    The Russian attack helicopter Ka-52 is considered one of the world's best and has struck fear in Ukraine, where it has hunted down tanks and other armored vehicles, often beyond the range of many light anti-aircraft systems. However, it has met its match in the Swedish air defense missile system RBS 70, which has quickly led to significant losses for the Russian helicopter forces.

    The Sun Drives Earth’s Climate, Not Carbon Dioxide

    Top Researchers Push Back Against Climate Lies."The correlation is as clear as day," explained the Israeli astrophysicist Nir Shaviv, who was hailed by the establishment, before his interview with Forbes was hastily deleted. What he says contradicts the climate narrative, which points to humans as responsible for Earth's climate. Shaviv firmly asserts that it is the sun that controls the climate, something that can be scientifically proven in many ways. Contrary to the popular belief, the sun's influence on Earth has, in recent years, caused unusually cold and rainy weather, a trend that solar researchers warn will worsen significantly in the coming decades. The sun has exhibited an unusually low activity since 2016, during Solar Cycle 24, which was the weakest in a century.

    Alternative for Germany held its conference during the last weekend of July in the thousand-year-old city of Magdeburg, located by the Elbe River in the eastern German state of Saxony. The first of the two conference days began with a strong program speech by the party's male spokesperson. Subsequently, party officials were elected and motions were addressed. The second day was entirely devoted to candidate selection and positioning for the EU election in June next year. Screenshot: AfD on Facebook

    Strong Confidence in German AfD

    Alternative for Germany (AfD) held a party conference on July 29-30 to select candidates for the upcoming EU election next year. EU Parliament member Maximilian Krah, belonging to the party's more radical, ethnonationalist faction, was appointed as the top candidate. The party's two spokespersons delivered powerful speeches criticizing the EU's failed migration policy and trade sanctions that isolate Europe and Germany from the rest of the world. They argued that it's time for the EU to return a significant portion of its power to national parliaments. However, they have dropped the demand for Germany to exit the EU.

    Maximilian Krah is one of the AfD politicians who is singled out as an ethnonationalist, as he has stated that there is a distinction between ethnic Germans and immigrants who have obtained German citizenship. Krah is a Member of the European Parliament and AfD's top candidate for the upcoming European Union election next year. Still image: AfD on Facebook

    The Establishment Wants to Ban Germany’s Second Largest Party – for the Sake of Democracy

    The rising popularity of AfD has raised strong concerns within the establishment. Despite lies and demonization in the media and isolation from the overall political establishment, the party continues to grow. Certain representatives of the party are accused of becoming increasingly "extreme," and in an unusual move, the influential weekly newspaper Der Spiegel demanded that AfD be "banned."

    FvD was quick to support the protests against covid restrictions. Today, the party also stands behind the farmers protests against the governments’ plans to close a big portion of the farms in the country for the sake of “climate”.
