Lancet Study on Covid Vaccine Autopsies Finds 74% Were Caused by Vaccine – Study is Removed Within 24 Hours

A Lancet review of 325 autopsies after Covid vaccination found that
74% of the deaths were caused by the vaccine – but the study was removed within
24 hours.
The paper, a pre-print that was awaiting peer-review, is written by leading
cardiologist Dr. Peter McCullough, Yale epidemiologist Dr. Harvey Risch
and their colleagues at the Wellness
Company and was published online on Wednesday on the pre-print site of the prestigious medical journal.
However, less than 24 hours later, the study was removed and a note appeared
stating: “This preprint has been removed by Preprints with the Lancet because
the study’s conclusions are not supported by the study methodology.” While the
study had not undergone any part of the peer-review process, the note implies
it fell foul of “screening criteria”.

Abstract
Background: The rapid development and widespread deployment of COVID-19 vaccines, combined with a high number of adverse event reports, have led to concerns over possible mechanisms of injury including systemic lipid nanoparticle (LNP) and mRNA distribution, spike protein-associated tissue damage, thrombogenicity, immune system dysfunction, and carcinogenicity. The aim of this systematic review is to investigate possible causal links between COVID-19 vaccine administration and death using autopsies and post-mortem analysis.
Findings: The most implicated organ system in COVID-19 vaccine-associated death was the cardiovascular system (53%), followed by the hematological system (17%), the respiratory system (8%), and multiple organ systems (7%). Three or more organ systems were affected in 21 cases. The mean time from vaccination to death was 14.3 days. Most deaths occurred within a week from last vaccine administration. A total of 240 deaths (73.9%) were independently adjudicated as directly due to or significantly contributed to by COVID-19 vaccination.
Interpretation: The consistency seen among cases in this review with known COVID-19 vaccine adverse events, their mechanisms, and related excess death, coupled with autopsy confirmation and physician-led death adjudication, suggests there is a high likelihood of a causal link between COVID-19 vaccines and death in most cases. Further urgent investigation is required for the purpose of clarifying our findings.
Discussion
In summary, we identified a large series of deaths after COVID-19 vaccination, confirmed with autopsy and necropsy, to help the medical community better understand fatal COVID-19 vaccine syndromes. The consistency seen among cases in this review with known COVID-19 vaccine adverse events, their mechanisms, and related excess death, coupled with autopsy confirmation and expert physician death adjudication, suggests there is a high likelihood of a causal link between COVID-19 vaccines and death in most cases. Even with substantial evidence, our paper cannot definitively determine causality as our paper has all the limitations of systematic reviews of previously published papers including selection bias, publication bias, and confounding variables. Further urgent investigation is required aimed at confirming our results and further elucidating the mechanisms underlying the described fatal outcomes with the goal of risk mitigation for the large numbers of individuals who have taken one or more COVID-19 vaccines.
