What the mainstream media is hiding
Suddenly severely disabled: A stroke can have dire consequences that are often irreversible. In the worst case, it kills. Preventing it is one of the best reasons for a healthy lifestyle, as the Ways Out Charity recommends to everyone. Does a Covid-19 “vaccination” increase the risk?

You’ve just filled the shopping cart in the supermarket, mowed the lawn, sat together in a happy atmosphere, cooked something delicious, or lazed around in front of the TV. You suddenly feel dizzy and nauseous and vomit. You get a hell of a headache. You can no longer feel one side of your body. You can no longer move an arm, a hand, or a leg. One corner of the mouth hangs. You see double vision; half of your field of vision is lost. You speak slurred and choppy; you slur, emphasize strangely, and can no longer form certain sounds. Your memory is disturbed. You may become unconscious or even fall into a coma.
This is how a stroke usually becomes noticeable – almost always without warning, as if out of the blue. Sometimes, only a few of the symptoms mentioned occur, very rarely none at all, but often all simultaneously. In the best-case scenario, the haunting is over after a few hours, occasionally even within minutes. However, the frightening restrictions often persist for months and, in one in three cases, forever, despite intensive rehabilitation. Then you may remain confined to a wheelchair, paralyzed, incontinent, and blind for the rest of your life; unable to work, helpless, constantly dependent on care; deprived of your freedom of movement as well as your dignity; with shattered dreams for the future, depressed, full of fear, often deeply depressed, increasingly demented.
And the sword of Damocles of the next, possibly even worse, stroke always hovers over you.
Assuming he doesn’t kill you straight away. In almost every fifth case, he does this to his surprised victims within the first year, in every tenth case in the first quarter, and in seven percent in the first month. (1)
Monstrous danger
The enormous extent of the danger, which healthy people preferably suppress, is intended to bring public awareness every year on October 29th, International Stroke Day, at least for a brief moment. In Germany alone, around 270,000 people are affected annually – 200,000 for the first time, 70,000 again. (2) 2.5 percent of the adult population has suffered at least one stroke – at least one in forty people. (3) Every second person affected is still over 75 years old – in this age group, over six percent have already been affected, but it is happening more and more often to younger people.
At least one in five people will be affected in the long term – five years or more – to such an extent that they need support in everyday life. (5) This makes stroke the most common cause of disability in adults. (3)
Globally, strokes are the second leading cause of death, the third leading cause of disability, and one of the leading causes of dementia. Over the past three decades, the number of those affected has increased by around 70% to over one hundred million, and the number of stroke-related deaths grew by 43% to almost six million. (6)
The future prospects are devastating: in 2050, experts predict, strokes will kill around ten million people and make 190 million disabled. (7)
The damage? Soon, more than 2000 billion dollars.
This results in staggering economic damage – 17 billion euros annually in Germany alone. Globally, the estimated costs – directly through treatment and rehabilitation, indirectly through lost productivity – amounted to over $891 billion in 2017, to the delight of rehabilitation clinic operators and manufacturers of medical devices. By 2050, that amount is expected to rise to a staggering $2.31 trillion annually.
Well, over 2,000 billion dollars: Couldn’t WHO and national health authorities use this to create a fabulous, undoubtedly Nobel Prize-worthy action program around the globe? Nine out of ten strokes could be prevented if a health-educated population motivated to take precautions avoided a few known risk factors.
To do this, she would have to understand how a stroke can even occur. It mainly comes in two forms:
– Cerebral infarction – also known as ischemic stroke – is caused by a vascular occlusion. This can be caused by a blood clot (thrombus) that has formed, for example, in the heart or carotid artery, and comes off from there. With the bloodstream, it enters the cerebral vessels and clogs them. Or advanced calcification blocks neck or cerebral arteries.
– In a cerebral hemorrhage – also known as a hemorrhagic stroke – a vessel in the brain bursts – usually due to high blood pressure, pathologically changed vessel walls, or vascular malformations. Blood then escapes from there and penetrates into the surrounding brain tissue, sometimes also into the space between the brain and the soft meninges filled with cerebrospinal fluid.
Whether blocked or burst: In both cases, the affected blood vessels are usually already arteriosclerotic, hardened, and narrowed by deposits. After the “stroke,” areas of the brain behind it no longer receive sufficient blood flow and are supplied with oxygen and nutrients. Brain cells die. Depending on their size and location, disruptions and failures of various mental and physical functions occur.
How to prevent it? That has long been clear.
This neurological catastrophe could almost always be prevented, and a recurrence could be prevented – in a way that has long been known. Just having blood pressure in the normal range reduces the risk of stroke by 60%. (8) Good blood sugar levels also lower it significantly; Diabetics have a two to three times increased risk of stroke. Being physically active, drinking enough water, staying away from tobacco and alcohol, and avoiding constant negative stress caused by fear and worry, as well as time and performance pressure, also contribute significantly to prevention.
Disastrous arteriosclerosis, which sooner or later narrows and clogs the blood vessels, is caused in particular by a disturbed lipid metabolism, with too much LDL cholesterol and triglycerides in the blood. It is caused by obesity, lack of exercise, and certain medications.
But above all, it’s essential to eat healthy. It should be balanced and wholesome, based on the Mediterranean style. Unlike animal fats, vegetable fats reduce the risk, as a study of data from 117,000 test subjects over a 27-year period showed. (9) A high consumption of table salt also increases the risk significantly. (10)
On the other hand, a sufficient supply of potassium protects. (11) Particularly rich sources of this mineral, which lowers blood pressure – while sodium increases it – are nuts, vegetables such as kale and Brussels sprouts, potatoes, bananas, dried fruits, and whole grain products. Coffee junkies should keep in mind that caffeine draws potassium from the body; However, this can be compensated for with the proper diet.
Vitamin D is also apparently important. If there is a lack of this, a stroke is more likely, as an Indian study showed in 2017. (12)
According to a Chinese study, those who drink tea regularly also reduce their risk of stroke – by at least 20 percent. Green tea, therefore, protects somewhat more effectively than black. (13)
However, because such statistical relationships can lead to premature conclusions about correlation and causation, they should be treated cautiously. Empirical research may show that stroke victims are significantly more likely to be single, drive a Mercedes, vacation in Italy, and own a poodle. Does this mean that precaution-conscious people should change car brands, rethink travel plans, take the poodle to the animal shelter, and, if single, get married as quickly as possible? Even without waiting for further evidence, we are more likely to be on the safer side if we avoid the leading risk factor that has long been known: the lifestyle prevalent in Western industrialized countries, which produces chronically ill people on an assembly line.
Where is a preventive health culture?
The example of a stroke illustrates the splendor and misery of conventional medicine. On the one hand, it manages to detect an increased risk early by measuring blood pressure, in the blood count, using ultrasound – especially of the carotid arteries to detect narrowings – as well as with an ECG to determine whether atrial fibrillation is present. (Because the heart is no longer pumping blood properly due to the irregular, rapid atrial contractions, it can collect in the left atrium and form a clot, which may then be transported further until it gets stuck in a brain artery and triggers a stroke.) These Modern medical devices can precisely determine the extent of the neurological damage caused thanks to CT and MRI. Those affected can count themselves lucky for every minute that they are in the care of the stroke unit of a well-equipped clinic. And if symptoms soon subside, this is primarily thanks to tried and tested rehabilitation facilities, measures, and aids.
On the other hand, the vast majority of people would not have found themselves in this terrible situation if they had grown up in a health culture that preferred self-responsible staying healthy and prevention over costly over-diagnosis and therapy. With occasional appeals, press releases, and one of what feels like ten thousand anniversaries, coinciding with “World Psoriasis Day” (also on October 29th) and somewhere between “Intersex Awareness Day” (October 26th) and “Day of Remembrance for the Victims of Political Violence.” (October 30th), it is far from done. We would need medicine that does not only occur after health has been lost. She should aim to prevent this loss – a main concern of my Ways Out Charity.
The wisest of all medical fee schedules emerged at least two and a half millennia ago. According to the world’s oldest medical textbook, the “Huangdi neijing,” in China, a doctor received his full salary only as long as all members of the clan to which he was assigned remained healthy. If someone fell ill, their fee was reduced if not canceled. If this type of doctor were still prevalent today, how many strokes would there still be in this country?
And how much less would there have been, especially since the end of 2020?
Stroke-inducing “jab”?
A 21-year-old firefighter is dying of a stroke three days after his second Pfizer mRNA injection. Four days after the second Covid “vaccination,” a 23-year-old was found dead in the bathtub in July 2021. Two days after the third Comirnaty injection, a 17-year-old girl from Vienna dies of a brain aneurysm. All three appeared to be perfectly healthy beforehand. 1288 similar fates after Covid-19 “Spikes” can be found in the archive of the impfopfer.info portal.
The general public knows next to nothing about it. Because as ordered, most mainstream media continue to spread the cloak of silence about it: Just like nerve damage, autoimmune, cancer, and heart diseases, strokes have increased sharply since the Covid-19 “vaccination” campaign with mRNA injections began. Even the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), otherwise a notorious fake news slinger at the forefront of trivialization and harm denial, felt compelled to raise a small alarm in January 2023: They reported a noticeable increase in strokes among older US citizens, after receiving “Comirnaty,” the Pfizer/BioNTech vaccine. The risk was increased by almost 50% in the first three weeks after the “jabs.” (14) Unfortunately, this “safety signal” was only recently noticed by the VSD (Vaccine Safety Datalink), a CDC project for monitoring vaccination side effects; Fortunately, however, it does not appear in the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS), a reporting system that has existed since 1990 with several hundred thousand case reports, nor in the databases of other countries and those of Pfizer-BioNTech – a big lie.
However, a research overview published in June 2022 brings bad news for Covid vaccinated people: It confirms an increased risk of stroke. (15) The reason for this, according to a British study published in November 2022 in the journal Nature, is that the vaccines increase known risk factors for ischemic and hemorrhagic strokes: blood clotting, high blood pressure, and low platelet counts – a so-called platelet count is below 150,000 per microliter (µl). “thrombocytopenia.” They occur more frequently in people who have been vaccinated against Covid than in the general population. (16)
Data from England, the USA, and Norway supposedly refuted this fear (17), and the World Health Organization also rushed to give the all-clear. (“The best evidence is that there is no true association.”) Of course, fact-checkers immediately refuted the “fake news.” (18) As ordered, mainstream media have recently even spread the word that the much higher risk of stroke comes from a SARS-CoV-2 infection (19) – and the vaccination protects (!) against it. (20) In order to improve the statistics, those affected are simply declared “unvaccinated” as long as they have not yet received the second dose. This way, you can sort out who gets hit after the first one.
A rarely cited study from Great Britain underlines how justified the concern is. It covered 29.1 million people over the age of 16 who had been given a Covid “vaccine” dose between December 1, 2020 and April 24, 2021; 19.6 million had received the AstraZeneca vaccine, 9.5 that from Pfizer. The following month, 112,711 were hospitalized for thromboembolism – blockage of blood vessels caused by blood clots, a leading cause of stroke; 8,404 died. An ischemic stroke had already occurred in 28,222 other vaccinated people – 4204 did not survive it. Mind you: within the first four weeks. And then?
What thousands upon thousands of vaccine victims and relatives, carers, and doctors report on social media confirms the connection: as soon as mRNA was injected, there were masses of strokes and cerebral hemorrhages, thrombosis, and embolisms. (21)
But hasn’t the number of deaths after strokes been declining slightly for a long time? Even in 2021 and 2022, there were slightly fewer than in the first Corona year of 2020. (22) But this trend suggests that those affected are receiving emergency care more quickly and better – and are therefore surviving more and more often. The absolute number of cases, on the other hand – as well as of myocarditis and pericarditis, heart attacks and arrests, of thrombosis and embolism of all kinds – has skyrocketed since the mass “jabs” began. This is affecting more and more younger people. Rescue operations are increasing massively, emergency clinics are overcrowded, as are aftercare facilities.
At the Berlin fire department, the number of logged operations under the keywords “stroke/transient ischemic (TIA) attack” increased by 27.4 percent to a total of 13,096 in 2021 compared to the average values from 2018/2019. “Such increases need to be explained,” comments a spokesman for the fire service community. “For the year 2021, however, another unknown factor appears to have been added, which significantly increases the previous increase.” In addition, when comparing the age groups, it is noticeable that “the highest rates of increase are occurring precisely in the age groups that are generally not considered “vulnerable groups should be understood concerning Covid-19 disease”.
Of Germany’s approximately 1,100 rehabilitation facilities, 269 also care for stroke patients. (23) Getting a free aftercare place there for those affected is a game of patience, as a 67-year-old friend of mine experienced after it happened to him in mid-October 2023. While he was in the intensive care unit, the clinic called all the rehabilitation facilities in the area to see which ones could accept him. Without exception, everyone was packed. It wasn’t until more than a hundred kilometers further north that a free rehabilitation bed was finally found for him.
Scientists are making it increasingly clear what lies behind it. After a COVID-19 vaccination, cells start producing tons of spike proteins. These can form amyloid-like substances that can arrange themselves into tight, thread-like structures, as Swedish researchers discovered. (24) This can cause blood clots. (25) Furthermore, S1—part of the spike protein—stimulates fibrin production. (26) This, in turn, is resistant to fibrinolysis, the body’s own dissolution of a blood clot. Microclumps also form in this way. Woe betide you if they end up in your brain.
Prof. Dr. sees things particularly darkly. Sucharit Bhakdi, a specialist in microbiology and infection epidemiology and former head of the Institute for Medical Microbiology and Hygiene at Johannes Gutenberg University Mainz. He fears that a large proportion, if not all, of the mRNA “pricks” will develop a more or less severe blood clotting disorder.
Like that? When injected into the muscle, the vaccine gene packets do not remain there, as health authorities and manufacturers initially led us to believe. First, the mRNA particles travel to the lymph nodes, and then they enter the bloodstream and into the smallest vessels, including the capillaries in the brain. Especially where the blood flows slowest, they collect and are absorbed by the endothelial cells, which line the vascular system like wallpaper. These now begin to produce spike proteins – and transport them into the bloodstream together with waste products from protein synthesis. The white blood cells’ blood clotting is switched on as soon as they come into contact with platelets. Bhakdi cites two doctors who tested all vaccinated patients’ blood before and after the shot. One person is said to have noticed an activation of blood coagulation in one in three people, the other even in 100 percent.
A perfectly healthy person may be able to survive the injected stress without any harm – but in the case of a metabolic syndrome with previously arteriosclerotic blood vessels damaged, it could literally be the last straw that causes a barrel to overflow.
