(Brownstone Institute)—Did you see Pfizer’s toe-tapping commercial during the Super Bowl this year? It’s a glossy, feel-good, women-empowering montage set to Queen’s song “Don’t’ Stop Me Now.” Talking statues and portraits of science-greats such as Galileo, Newton, and Einstein are mixed in with Pfizer’s founders Charles Erhart and Charles Pfizer, along with women scientists, professors, and doctors.
Visuals and colors explode as the words, “Here’s to science. Here’s to the next fight. LetsOutdoCancer.com” appear. At the end, we see a darling little girl, presumably cured of cancer, leaving the hospital to applause from her attending medical personnel, with the words “Pfizer, Outdo Yesterday™” superimposed on the lower right of the screen.
It’s a lovely $14 million 60 or 90 second spot, depending on which cut you watch. And it’s all gaslighting.
Pfizer is Dr. Chillingworth. For those unfamiliar, Dr. Chillingworth is a cold, deformed, bitter man exacting revenge on the kind, revered, but hypocritical Reverend Dimmesdale in a 17th Century Puritan Massachusetts Bay Colony. In the novel The Scarlet Letter, Chillingworth feigns to be a healer, and eventually moves in with Rev. Dimmesdale pretending to better treat his heart condition, while subtly tormenting him and contributing to Dimmesdale’s failing health and eventual death.
Of course Pfizer isn’t a shunned husband trying to determine the source of his wife’s infidelity and subsequent illegitimate child. And maybe the owners of Pfizer aren’t visibly cold, deformed, and bitter. I couldn’t say, not having personally met any of them. But Pfizer is without a doubt, a Dr. Chillingworth in all our lives – pretending to help us while contributing to our failing health. Perhaps you knew this before the Covid-19 pandemic, but I suspect most of us did not.
Pfizer’s cheery Super Bowl ad cannot change the fact that they never tested their BNT162b2 vaccine during clinical trials to see if it prevented transmission of Covid-19. Nor did Pfizer stop distribution when 90 days into the vaccination campaign, there had already been 1,123 vaccine-related deaths, and over 40,000 vaccine injuries.
Dr. Peter McCullough, one of the most published cardiologists in the world, was shocked when Pfizer did not withdraw its Covid vaccine in February 2021. Having served on multiple vaccine safety review boards for the FDA in the past, Dr. McCullough knew that even a possible causal relationship between the vaccines and injury reports was concern enough for the shots to be pulled. For example, in 1976 during a swine flu scare, a mass vaccine rollout was abruptly canceled after more than 500 vaccinated people contracted Guillain-Barré syndrome, and more than 30 died.
However, the alarming results from the 90-day safety review of Pfizer’s Covid vaccine were disregarded by both Pfizer and the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). Also ignored were knowledgeable doctors and scientists who contacted the European Medical Association in February 2021, calling for the vaccines to be withdrawn for further evaluation, due to “a wide range of side effects…reported following vaccination of previously healthy younger individuals.”
Pictured in Pfizer’s peppy commercial are Katalin Karikó, PhD, and Drew Weissman, MD, PhD, who were just awarded the Nobel Prize in Physiology for their work on the mRNA platform that was used in the Pfizer and Moderna shots.
Rickard Sandberg, of the Nobel Assembly said that Karikó and Weissman’s research was added to others’ work on stabilized spike protein and mRNA delivery using lipid nanoparticles, which led to “two highly effective mRNA vaccines against Covid-19” being developed and approved “in record time.”
Record time indeed, but “highly effective?” Not so much. When all the safety precautions are removed from product development, billions of dollars are involved, and the warning signs of adverse events are ignored, you get Operation Warp Speed.
Most people were unaware that when they were jabbed with the Covid-19 shots, they were participating in a worldwide clinical trial, taking into their bodies an improperly tested, experimental product. The Pfizer, Moderna, Johnson & Johnson, and AstraZeneca vaccines are all gene therapy products, not traditional vaccines. In 2018, the FDA defined gene therapy as “a technique that modifies a person’s genes to treat or cure disease.”
Pfizer and Moderna shots send a message to cells via modified mRNA to create the toxic spike protein found in the SARS-CoV-2 virus that causes Covid-19 disease. J&J and AstraZeneca DNA shots send a gene to the cells with instructions to create the spike protein. The theory was that the cells would create the spike in response to the message sent by the Covid gene therapy. The body would then recognize the enemy substance, develop an immune response, and be protected upon actually encountering the SARS-CoV-2 virus in the future.
But Pfizer’s claims that the shots were 95% effective at preventing infection were deceptive, and Pfizer never even tested their shot to see if it prevented Covid-19 transmission. Yet the claim that we were protecting ourselves and others by taking the Covid vaccines has continually been wielded as justification for coercing and mandating people into getting injected. In fact, not only do the shots not prevent disease transmission or infection, but they make recipients more susceptible to Covid-19 infection, and less able to fight the disease.
Coffee the Christian way: Promised Grounds
Time has proven that the Covid-19 shots are not effective, and they’re certainly not safe, a claim which never should have been made, as no long-term clinical trials were conducted before the shots were administered worldwide. Pfizer and the other pharmaceutical companies had not overcome the known problems with gene therapies, one of which was lack of control over where the injected gene therapy travels in the body.
The uncontrolled spread of messenger RNA body leads to the creation of toxic spike protein in the brain, other organs, and the circulatory system – places where spike protein would not be during the normal course of the disease – leading to all types of cardial and neurological issues. The lipid nanoparticle envelope that carries the mRNA to the cells is also known to be problematic, causing inflammation in the body.
Karikó and Weissman both knew this about mRNA vaccines. Dr. Weissman co-authored a paper in 2018, “MRNA vaccines – a new era in vaccinology,” in which both advances in, and safety concerns about mRNA vaccines were outlined. The safety concerns included possible blood clots, systemic inflammation, lack of control over where the vaccine goes in the body and how long it stays there, autoimmune diseases, and the potential toxicity of lipid nanoparticles.
The FDA was also aware of the uncertainty of safety in gene therapy products. An FDA article from 2006 states:
- Preserve your retirement with physical precious metals. Receive your free gold guide from Genesis Precious Metals to learn how.
Study subjects exposed to gene transfer technology may be at risk of delayed adverse events as a consequence of persistent biological activity of the genetic material or other components of the products used to carry the genetic material. The persistent biological activity may be necessary for the product to provide a continuing clinical benefit. However, persistent biological activity could have adverse effects upon normal cell function, placing subjects at risk for development of adverse events, some of which may be delayed by months or years. (emphasis added)
The Covid vaccines were only Emergency Use Authorized (EUA) by the FDA, and still have not been granted full approval. The EUA status conferred on the Covid-19 vaccines means the pharmaceutical companies are not liable for injuries resulting from the injections – and there are many. We are seeing “delayed adverse events” and “adverse effects upon normal cell function” all around us. “Persistent biological activity” is manifested by the fact that vaccine-induced spike protein is still circulating in some people up to six months after injection.
We were told that the Covid shots would stay in the arm muscle , and that the body would discard the mRNA message within a few hours of delivery. Pfizer and the FDA were not forthcoming about the pros and cons of the Covid shots. Without this knowledge, the public could not give informed consent.
Pfizer’s track record in the drug-making industry is anything but squeaky clean. In 2009, the United States Department of Justice ordered it to pay $2.3 billion in civil and criminal penalties, due to adverse events resulting from Pfizer’s false claims regarding some of its products. In 2004 it was ordered to pay $430 million in civil and criminal penalties for violation of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (FDCA). An article at the time noted it was “Not a major setback for Pfizer,” due to the billions it was bringing in from the product in question.
These huge civil and criminal penalties seem akin to gnats biting an elephant – an annoyance, but not a hindrance to day-to-day business. The FDA is as responsible as Pfizer for the Covid shots, granting EUA despite the known dangers of experimental gene therapy technology.
Major life insurance companies report that starting in the fall of 2021 (when Covid vaccine mandates were implemented in the US), excess mortality increased over 40% in people ages 18-64. The large increase had never been seen before in the history of life insurance. Long-term disability claims have also increased unexpectedly in the younger age groups.
All around us many of our family, friends, and neighbors have been injured by Pfizer and the other drug companies’ Covid-19 gene therapy injections (see here, and here). Three years from the beginning of the massive Covid vaccination campaign, we have all become aware of the sudden “cause unknown” medical events affecting athletes, young people, and the previously healthy middle-aged. Blood clots, pulmonary embolisms, aneurysms, heart attacks, strokes, myocarditis, Bell’s palsy, Guillain-Barré syndrome, autoimmune diseases, and a host of other cardiac and neurological illnesses are afflicting people of all ages.
Because the problems are developing months and years after injection, most people are not making the connection between the Covid shots and the illnesses and deaths of loved ones, and their own illnesses. Maybe this failure to connect the dots has to do with the mantra that is repeated daily to this day, “safe and effective,” and maybe it’s partly the trauma of realizing that we have been deceived, manipulated, and violated by those whom we trusted in positions of authority.
But the FDA knows. Pfizer knows. So do Moderna, and J&J, and AstraZeneca. So do the CDC, various government and public health leaders, and the complicit mainstream media. As do many medical and scientific organizations, and their prestigious journals. Collective guilt is a difficult emotion to face, and perhaps an even harder fact to expose.
The American Cancer Society (ACS) expects new cancer cases in the US to rise beyond 2 million in 2024, a one-year milestone, with data showing an increase in younger people being diagnosed with cancer. The ACS attributes the rise in cancer to many factors including obesity, failure to get early screening, family history, race, situations unique to the LGBTQ population, and economic disparities. Sadly lacking is any introspection regarding the possible impact of new, inadequately tested gene therapy products injected into the world’s population starting in 2021. However, there are cancer doctors who trace the rise directly to the Covid-19 shots.
Oncologist Dr. Angus Dalgleish has seen a marked increase in recurring cancers in his UK practice, temporally related to the Covid vaccine rollout. Dr. Ryan Cole, who owns a large pathology lab, began to see an unusual increase in breast cancer and recurring cancers in 2021. Oncologist Dr. William Makis, who has diagnosed 20,000 cancer patients in his career, says he has never seen anything before like the sudden development of aggressive and rapidly-growing cancers in young people. In his practice, Makis is seeing stage 4 breast cancers presenting in women in their 20s, stage 4 colon cancers presenting in men and women in their 20s and 30s, leukemias that kill in a matter of days or even hours after diagnosis, and lymphomas that kill in a matter of months.
Wouldn’t it be wonderful if we could find a cancer cure?
Yes it would, but at this point in time we would do much better listening to our own bodies and returning to healthy practices, instead of looking to multi-billion dollar corrupt pharmaceutical companies and government bureaucracies to solve our medical problems. The Reverend Dimmesdale allowed Dr. Chillingworth into his home to better “cure” him. We don’t need to let Pfizer into our lives, or our bodies, anymore.

As for my part, I’m not going to dance and sing along with Pfizer. Contrary to Pfizer’s “Don’t Stop Me Now” message, I hope we can stop Pfizer and its “Outdo Yesterday” slogan. Because now I recognize gaslighting, and yesterday was bad enough.

Five Things New “Preppers” Forget When Getting Ready for Bad Times Ahead
The preparedness community is growing faster than it has in decades. Even during peak times such as Y2K, the economic downturn of 2008, and Covid, the vast majority of Americans made sure they had plenty of toilet paper but didn’t really stockpile anything else.
Things have changed. There’s a growing anxiety in this presidential election year that has prompted more Americans to get prepared for crazy events in the future. Some of it is being driven by fearmongers, but there are valid concerns with the economy, food supply, pharmaceuticals, the energy grid, and mass rioting that have pushed average Americans into “prepper” mode.
There are degrees of preparedness. One does not have to be a full-blown “doomsday prepper” living off-grid in a secure Montana bunker in order to be ahead of the curve. In many ways, preparedness isn’t about being able to perfectly handle every conceivable situation. It’s about being less dependent on government for as long as possible. Those who have proper “preps” will not be waiting for FEMA to distribute emergency supplies to the desperate masses.
Below are five things people new to preparedness (and sometimes even those with experience) often forget as they get ready. All five are common sense notions that do not rely on doomsday in order to be useful. It may be nice to own a tank during the apocalypse but there’s not much you can do with it until things get really crazy. The recommendations below can have places in the lives of average Americans whether doomsday comes or not.

Secured Wealth
Whether in the bank or held in a retirement account, most Americans feel that their life’s savings is relatively secure. At least they did until the last couple of years when de-banking, geopolitical turmoil, and the threat of Central Bank Digital Currencies reared their ugly heads.
It behooves Americans to diversify their holdings. If there’s a triggering event or series of events that cripple the financial systems or devalue the U.S. Dollar, wealth can evaporate quickly. To hedge against potential turmoil, many Americans are looking in two directions: Crypto and physical precious metals.
There are huge advantages to cryptocurrencies, but there are also inherent risks because “virtual” money can become challenging to spend. Add in the push by central banks and governments to regulate or even replace cryptocurrencies with their own versions they control and the risks amplify. There’s nothing wrong with cryptocurrencies today but things can change rapidly.
As for physical precious metals, many Americans pay cash to keep plenty on hand in their safe. Rolling over or transferring retirement accounts into self-directed IRAs is also a popular option, but there are caveats. It can often take weeks or even months to get the gold and silver shipped if the owner chooses to close their account. This is why Genesis Gold Group stands out. Their relationship with the depositories allows for rapid closure and shipping, often in less than 10 days from the time the account holder makes their move. This can come in handy if things appear to be heading south.
Lots of Potable Water
One of the biggest shocks that hit new preppers is understanding how much potable water they need in order to survive. Experts claim one gallon of water per person per day is necessary. Even the most conservative estimates put it at over half-a-gallon. That means that for a family of four, they’ll need around 120 gallons of water to survive for a month if the taps turn off and the stores empty out.
Being near a fresh water source, whether it’s a river, lake, or well, is a best practice among experienced preppers. It’s necessary to have a water filter as well, even if the taps are still working. Many refuse to drink tap water even when there is no emergency. Berkey was our previous favorite but they’re under attack from regulators so the Alexapure systems are solid replacements.
For those in the city or away from fresh water sources, storage is the best option. This can be challenging because proper water storage containers take up a lot of room and are difficult to move if the need arises. For “bug in” situations, having a larger container that stores hundreds or even thousands of gallons is better than stacking 1-5 gallon containers. Unfortunately, they won’t be easily transportable and they can cost a lot to install.
Water is critical. If chaos erupts and water infrastructure is compromised, having a large backup supply can be lifesaving.
Pharmaceuticals and Medical Supplies
There are multiple threats specific to the medical supply chain. With Chinese and Indian imports accounting for over 90% of pharmaceutical ingredients in the United States, deteriorating relations could make it impossible to get the medicines and antibiotics many of us need.
Stocking up many prescription medications can be hard. Doctors generally do not like to prescribe large batches of drugs even if they are shelf-stable for extended periods of time. It is a best practice to ask your doctor if they can prescribe a larger amount. Today, some are sympathetic to concerns about pharmacies running out or becoming inaccessible. Tell them your concerns. It’s worth a shot. The worst they can do is say no.
If your doctor is unwilling to help you stock up on medicines, then Jase Medical is a good alternative. Through telehealth, they can prescribe daily meds or antibiotics that are shipped to your door. As proponents of medical freedom, they empathize with those who want to have enough medical supplies on hand in case things go wrong.
Energy Sources
The vast majority of Americans are locked into the grid. This has proven to be a massive liability when the grid goes down. Unfortunately, there are no inexpensive remedies.
Those living off-grid had to either spend a lot of money or effort (or both) to get their alternative energy sources like solar set up. For those who do not want to go so far, it’s still a best practice to have backup power sources. Diesel generators and portable solar panels are the two most popular, and while they’re not inexpensive they are not out of reach of most Americans who are concerned about being without power for extended periods of time.
Natural gas is another necessity for many, but that’s far more challenging to replace. Having alternatives for heating and cooking that can be powered if gas and electric grids go down is important. Have a backup for items that require power such as manual can openers. If you’re stuck eating canned foods for a while and all you have is an electric opener, you’ll have problems.
Don’t Forget the Protein
When most think about “prepping,” they think about their food supply. More Americans are turning to gardening and homesteading as ways to produce their own food. Others are working with local farmers and ranchers to purchase directly from the sources. This is a good idea whether doomsday comes or not, but it’s particularly important if the food supply chain is broken.
Most grocery stores have about one to two weeks worth of food, as do most American households. Grocers rely heavily on truckers to receive their ongoing shipments. In a crisis, the current process can fail. It behooves Americans for multiple reasons to localize their food purchases as much as possible.
Long-term storage is another popular option. Canned foods, MREs, and freeze dried meals are selling out quickly even as prices rise. But one component that is conspicuously absent in shelf-stable food is high-quality protein. Most survival food companies offer low quality “protein buckets” or cans of meat, but they are often barely edible.
Prepper All-Naturals offers premium cuts of steak that have been cooked sous vide and freeze dried to give them a 25-year shelf life. They offer Ribeye, NY Strip, and Tenderloin among others.
Having buckets of beans and rice is a good start, but keeping a solid supply of high-quality protein isn’t just healthier. It can help a family maintain normalcy through crises.
Prepare Without Fear
With all the challenges we face as Americans today, it can be emotionally draining. Citizens are scared and there’s nothing irrational about their concerns. Being prepared and making lifestyle changes to secure necessities can go a long way toward overcoming the fears that plague us. We should hope and pray for the best but prepare for the worst. And if the worst does come, then knowing we did what we could to be ready for it will help us face those challenges with confidence.
