1976 Swine Flu Guillain-Barre syndrome family won't be taking government advice again any time soon

Credit Instagram's @doesnt.it.bother.you with the resuscitation of this segment from an old "60 Minutes" television programme. How old? 1976 to be exact - older than most of you, we bet!

See, this covid jab isn't the first time we've seen what can happen when big gubmint rushes to produce a jab without adequate controls and safeguards. The American government of Gerald Ford tried in 1976 to roll out an inadequately tested injection for some New Jersey version of Swine Flu [0-6], and in the process caused 1 out of every 100,000 jabbees to develop Guillain-Barre syndrome, "a rapid-onset muscle weakness caused by the immune system damaging the peripheral nervous system. Typically, both sides of the body are involved, and the initial symptoms are changes in sensation or pain often in the back along with muscle weakness, beginning in the feet and hands, often spreading to the arms and upper body. The symptoms may develop over hours to a few weeks. During the acute phase, the disorder can be life-threatening, with about 15% of people developing weakness of the breathing muscles and, therefore, requiring mechanical ventilation. Some are affected by changes in the function of the autonomic nervous system, which can lead to dangerous abnormalities in heart rate and blood pressure. See [7].

The 1976 Swine Flu jab program was shuttered when it became apparent that 1 in every 100,000 volunteers were adversely affected.

By contrast, there are reports that Pfizer and BioNTech saw statistics that almost three out of every 100 volunteers suffered adverse effects from their mRNA jab, and still they presented the data to the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for regulatory approval.

This television footage from Mike Wallace's show is for us the totemic illustration for Guillain-Barre vaccine adverse reaction. By contrast, you might say that myocarditis and pericarditis with the anticovid jab are totemic today, and this predominantly in the young.

The myocarditis and pericarditis rates today in youth probably exceed those of Guillain-Barre syndrome in 1976. It is curious to reflect on the differences of today's society and that of 1976.

Internet friends, to what do you attribute the strange behaviour of today?
