AFN poll reveals nearly 71% know someone adversely affected by COVID-19 shot


AFN poll reveals nearly 71% know someone adversely affected by COVID-19 shot

In the ongoing discourse surrounding COVID-19 shots, a recent AFN poll indicated that its readers are either aware of someone who has suffered adverse effects from the COVID-19 shot or has personally experienced negative side effects.

Last week, American Family News reported that Florida Attorney General James Uthmeier filed a 49-page lawsuit against Pfizer and its CEO, Dr. Albert Bourla. The complaint accuses Pfizer of misleading the public about the safety of its COVID-19 shot, highlighting unreported adverse events, including fatalities and miscarriages.

AFN conducted an informal and unscientific four-day poll with the article, where over 1,100 readers were surveyed regarding their experiences with the COVID-19 shot. Respondents were prompted to identify anyone they knew who claimed to have suffered adverse effects from the shot and to describe their relationship to that person.

The results revealed that 29% of respondents could not name anyone who had been injured by the shot. Meanwhile, 27% reported knowing a family member who experienced injuries related to the shot. Additionally, 24% indicated they were aware of a friend or co-worker who suffered adverse effects, while 14% reported knowing a neighbor or acquaintance affected by the shot.

Notably, 5% of participants reported having sustained injuries from the shot. This finding indicates that nearly 71% of respondents either knew someone who had been negatively impacted by the shot or experienced adverse effects themselves.

AFN spoke to Nicolas Hulscher, MPH, an Epidemiologist and Foundation Administrator at the McCullough Foundation, who expressed concern about the latest poll results regarding COVID-19 shots. He remarked, “These results are alarming, but not surprising.”

Hulscher highlighted that 71% of respondents either experienced negative effects personally or knew someone who had, which he described as “a massive signal of public concern that should not be brushed aside.”

While acknowledging the informal nature of the poll and its limitations in determining the actual rate of vaccine-related injuries, he noted, “The sheer number of people reporting these experiences is impossible to ignore.”

He further revealed that the McCullough Foundation has “seen major safety concerns surrounding the COVID-19 shots since their rollout, including heart damage, neurological damage, turbo cancer, extreme blood clotting, reproductive injury, disability, and deaths after vaccination.”

Additionally, Hulscher pointed out that many individuals who have suffered injuries have reported their experiences being dismissed, minimized, or not thoroughly investigated. “So, I am not surprised that so many respondents know someone who believes they were harmed,” he stated. 

Careful review needed

This sentiment underscores a significant shift in public perception regarding health and safety. He concluded by asserting, “The era of simply repeating ‘safe and effective’ is over.”

As the conversation surrounding the COVID-19 shot continues to evolve, it is evident that the concerns raised by the recent poll reflect a deeper unease within the community. The significant number of individuals reporting negative experiences, either personally or through acquaintances, calls for a careful examination of vaccine safety protocols and transparency in reporting adverse effects.

In this context, it is important to consider that while reports are not proof of causality, OpenVAERS (Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System) serves as a private organization that provides access to publicly available CDC/FDA data regarding injuries reported post-vaccination. Recent statistics from the site indicate more than 1.6 million adverse event reports, over 223,000 hospitalizations, and upwards of 32,000 reported deaths linked to COVID-19 shots.
