Findings in Case Study: Spike Protein Found in Brain & Heart

First autopsy report to “demonstrate” spike proteins in encephalitic lesions & to attribute it to vaccination rather than infection. (See conclusion area at the bottom.)

No words for this — there needs to be more funding for studies of this nature.

Here are 19 other papers for review — organized by the Guest Editor of MDPI:

Health problems. Retrospectives. Studies. Side effects. Risk factors.

The submission window for additional studies closes on 31 December 2022.

All these ideas could have been considered and discussed before a massive campaign to inject everyone started — but here we are.

This is a case report of a 76-year-old patient with Parkinson’s disease (PD) who died three weeks after his third COVID-19 vaccination. The stated cause of death appeared to be a recurrent attack of aspiration pneumonia, which is indeed common in PD [14,15]. However, the detailed autopsy study revealed additional pathology, in particular necrotizing encephalitis and myocarditis. While the histopathological signs of myocarditis were comparatively mild, the encephalitis had resulted in significant multifocal necrosis and may well have contributed to the fatal outcome. Encephalitis often causes epileptic seizures, and the tongue bite found at the autopsy suggests that it had done so in this case. Several other cases of COVID-19 vaccine-associated encephalitis with status epilepticus have appeared previously [16,17,18].

Although there was no history of COVID-19 for this patient, immunohistochemistry for SARS-CoV-2 antigens (spike and nucleocapsid proteins) was performed. Spike protein could be indeed demonstrated in the areas of acute inflammation in the brain (particularly within the capillary endothelium) and the small blood vessels of the heart. Remarkably, however, the nucleocapsid was uniformly absent. During an infection with the virus, both proteins should be expressed and detected together. On the other hand, the gene-based COVID-19 vaccines encode only the spike protein and therefore, the presence of spike protein only (but no nucleocapsid protein) in the heart and brain of the current case can be attributed to vaccination rather than to infection. This agrees with the patient’s history, which includes three vaccine injections, the third one just 3 weeks before his death, but no positive laboratory or clinical diagnosis of the infection.

Conclusion:

Numerous cases of encephalitis and encephalomyelitis have been reported in connection with the gene-based COVID-19 vaccines, with many being considered causally related to vaccination [31,38,39]. However, this is the first report to demonstrate the presence of the spike protein within the encephalitic lesions and to attribute it to vaccination rather than infection. These findings corroborate a causative role of the gene-based COVID-19 vaccines, and this diagnostic approach is relevant to potentially vaccine-induced damage to other organs as well.
