Did the mRNA Vaccine Rollout Correlate to Internet Searches for Adverse Reactions?

Steve Kirsch recently wrote an article suggesting that Google searches for adverse events have coincided with the vaccine roll-out, and much in the same way an unprecedented spike occurred in VAERS, the same was observed for these trends. In many cases, it appears the interest in common vaccine side effects predated “misinformation spreaders” popularizing them, suggesting there was a real life basis for this interest. This article is a supplement to Kirsch’s article and meant to make the information behind these trends easier to observe. Additional commentary can be found within his article:

If vaccines are safe, how will they explain these Google results?

When putting this data into context, it is important to understand the timeline of the vaccine rollout. It was as follows:

•December 8, 2020: First U.K. Vaccination
•December 11, 2020: Pfizer mRNA vaccination receives EUA from FDA
•December 14, 2020: First U.S. Vaccination
•December 30, 2020: Pfizer NEJM Paper is Published
•Jan 22, 2021: First Mass Vaccination Clinics Open.
Using California as an example of the timeline for this rollout (some of these timelines were on a county and others at a state level):
-December 14: Health care workers and Nursing home residents are eligible for vaccination.
-January 18, 2021: Individuals aged 75 years and older are eligible for vaccination.
-January 23, 2021: Individuals aged 65-74 years of age are eligible for vaccination.
-February 27, 2021: Essential workers are eligible for vaccination.
-April 1, 2021: Individuals age 50-64 years old are eligible for vaccination.
-April 15, 2021: Individuals age 16 and older are eligible for vaccination.
-May 12, 2021: Individuals age 12 and older are eligible for vaccination.
•September 9, 2021: Biden announces vaccine mandates
•September 22, 2021: EUA for Pfizer booster authorized

These data points directly correlate with the USA vaccination uptake:

I will now examine all of the trends Kirsch highlighted. Keep in mind that searches worded in a way suggesting the searcher is experiencing those symptoms (i.e. severe headache after vaccine) are more suggestive of an experienced vaccination side effect as opposed to a reflection of general interest in the topic. Also keep in mind that Google tended towards suppressing rather than encouraging these searches by censoring vaccine related effects from autocompletes on search queries.

General Side Effects:

The graph below is marked at 12/14/20, the date when U.S. health care workers received the first vaccines and interest in this topic likely emerged.

Myocarditis:

The graph below is marked at 4/1/21, the date when vaccines began to be available to the general population. Myocarditis following vaccination is typically observed in younger individuals and typically takes a few weeks to months to appear.

Died Suddenly:

9/9/21, the date of Biden’s vaccine mandate is marked below:

Both the previous and following graphs suggest sudden death following vaccination typically occurs months after vaccination, which I suspect is a result of a critical threshold being passed for the cumulative buildup of spike protein (which continues indefinitely as synthetic vaccine mRNA was designed to resist being broken down by the body). This could also be due to greater awareness being brought to this topic as a political response to Biden’s mandate.

9/9/21, the date of Biden’s vaccine mandate is marked below:

I believe this trend can be accounted for by the time delay effect of sudden death following vaccination and greater awareness being brought to this condition (once there is a term to explain what is being observed, there is more interest in it).

Irregular Periods and Abnormal Menstruation:

This graph below has been marked at 4/1, the date the vaccine became available to the general public.

For context, menstrual issues are one of the most common side effects of the vaccine, especially for women of childbearing age. As this article (based on this recent study) shows, like Sudden Adult Syndrome and pediatric strokes, menstrual irregularities are increasingly being normalized by the media to conceal where it originated from:

Headaches:

This graph below has been marked at 4/1, the date the vaccine became available to the general public. For context, headaches are one of the most common vaccine side effects I have come across.

Severe Headaches:

This graph below has been marked at 4/1, the date the vaccine became available to the general public. The best explanation I have found to explain the severe headaches frequently reported after vaccination are that they arise from an impairment of the microcirculation within the brain (presently this can only be detected by directly observing the blood or indirectly by a d-dimer test).

Miscarriages:

As Kirsch highlighted, the interest in miscarriage after vaccination spiked prior to attention being brought to this issue. 12/14, the date the first US healthcare worker received the vaccine has been marked on this graph. Healthcare workers likely observed this trend before anyone else.

Bell’s Palsy:

While Justin Bieber has done a remarkable job of bringing attention to this vaccine side effect, interest in this side effect predated his experience. However, when this trend is examined more closely, it is difficult to directly correlate it with effects from the vaccine roll out; rather it was more likely to be due to healthcare worker interest in this potential side effect while researching the vaccination. The graph below is marked at 12/14, the day the first US healthcare worker received a vaccine.

Guillain–Barré syndrome:

I have met multiple who have developed Guillain–Barré syndrome from the mRNA vaccines, so I know this correlation exists. I am not however sure why the trend would have started when it did. The date of the first spike, 7/4/2021 is marked below (classically Guillain–Barré syndrome comes from a bacteria found in undercooked chicken, but I am doubtful July 4th barbecues explain this trend).
The second spike Kirsch argues is most likely due to attention being brought to the suspicion Gavin Newsom developed Guillain–Barré syndrome following vaccination.

Thrombosis (Blood Clots):

4/1/21, the date of the vaccines being available to the general public has been marked below:

Blood Clots:

Conclusion:

The most common argument used to dismiss adverse events that individuals attribute to vaccination is that "correlation does not equal causation.“ I believe that a lack of correlation clearly disproves causation, but when a correlation is present, it requires further investigation to be done to assess if a causation is present. Using the lack of additional confirmatory studies to "debunk” a concerning correlation it is an intellectually dishonest tactic you frequently observe.

The tactic is particularly dishonest because:
• The additional necessary studies are always stonewalled from being conducted and when individuals have nonetheless tried to do these critical placebo controlled studies of the vaccination schedule, they often run into significant repercussions for doing so. For example, most of the vaccinations on the market have never been tested in a placebo controlled setting, and when this is requested to evaluate their safety, the counter argument that has always provided is: "vaccines are so amazingly effective that it is unethical to deny someone access to a vaccine by permitting them to receive a placebo.”
This likewise was the excuse Pfizer and Moderna used to terminate their EUA required long-term follow-up placebo controlled studies, thereby making it impossible to "prove" the tsunami of adverse chronic effects that have since emerged following vaccination could be attributed to their products. Because many "educated" members of society accept this excuse, it is very likely that individual suffering chronic effects from these vaccines will be gaslighted (a series on medical gaslighting can be viewed here) into believing nothing ever happened until the day they die.

•When a correlation is politically convenient, there is rarely a hesitation to attribute that correlation to causation. For example, most of the benefits continually attributed to the early vaccines were most likely actually a result of improved sanitation and living conditions for the working class (this was the subject of my first article on Substack). Likewise, despite the fact that the spike proteins vaccines typically correlate with an increase in COVID-19, the instances where they correlate with a decrease are the ones ultimately cited as proof the vaccines are working.

•While a single correlation does not prove causation, a large number of different correlations that share the same conclusion strongly argue a causation is present and must be subject to a more rigorous investigation. Many different data sets, such as the unprecedented spike in adverse events reported to VAERS and a 10% increase in disability within the United States now indicate significant harm is resulting from the spike protein vaccinations. As this constellation of correlations is difficult to argue against, debunkers will always focus on one correlation and deliberately ignore the broader constellation. The adverse events reported within Google are another example of a concerning correlation that has not been investigated.

Because so many correlations exist, it is often very easy to selectively pick out correlations that affirm or refute your pre-existing biases (and this is what almost always happens). For that reason, I made sure in this article to subject every single trend Steve Kirsch highlighted to the same standard, and to disclose that the interest in Bell's Palsy did not appear to correlate to the vaccine rollout, and that it was difficult to draw a conclusion from the search interest in Guillain–Barré syndrome.

I also searched for a few other common side effects of vaccination such as tinnitus and dizziness, and did not observe any meaningful correlation present between the search interest and the vaccine rollouts. Like the disability data, there is significantly more room for additional analysis of these trends and their correlation with the population uptake of vaccination and adverse event reporting to VAERS (for instance I am gradually working on this for the disability data with a team).

Typically, analysis of these types would be found within the peer review literature. Unfortunately since any discussion of negative effects from vaccination (along with anything else that questions the pandemic response) has been censored by the academic publication industry, independent media such as Substack are the only place these analyses can be published and as a result, it is typically not possible to go into the same level of detail that could be obtained within a journal publication.

My own perspective is that when a critically important topic is not being evaluated, “something” is a lot better than “nothing.” Nonetheless, much in the same way “correlation is never acceptable for implying causation,” I can likewise understand how many would feel a scientific discussion of this topic is inappropriate unless it is peer-reviewed and published within a prestigious academic journal. It's up to you to decide what you feel is appropriate; all I can do on my end is to be as objective and transparent with the data and my own analysis as possible.
