COVID Vaccine Trials: Adverse Reactions, Data Distortion, & Media Censorship

“Omissions are a form of censorship.”
On November 2, 2021, Senator Ron Johnson, Republican of Wisconsin, held a Covid Vaccine Injury panel which featured a plethora of experts and people discussing their injuries, or experiences with the Covid Vaccines. Senator Johnson is a controversial figure, but he seems to be one of the few, possibly the only representative that cares about the Covid Vaccine injured and cares about Covid Vaccine safety. He gives people a platform to talk about their experiences with the Covid Vaccines, and the trials, that they would otherwise struggle to get. That’s very important as Covid Vaccine injuries are occurring and they can be quite severe, even resulting in death. One might think the mainstream media would be interested in covering these stories provided during the panel, but they were more motivated to attempt to discredit them, as you will see later.
Two of the people on the panel were Covid Vaccine injured in their perspective trials. They are, now 13 year old, Maddie de Garay (who was with her mother Stephanie) and Brianne Dressen. They’re not anti-vaxers. Stephanie volunteered her daughter, Maddie, and son for the Pfizer trial and Brianne Dressen, whose husband is a chemist, volunteered for the AstraZenca trial. These are people that are pro-vax, but realize the safety data for the Covid Vaccines specifically, should be brought into question based on what they, and others, have experienced. They are also advocating for acknowledgment and treatment for the injured.
Brandy Zadrozny tries to paint Maddie and her mother in another way. She’s a reporter for NBC News. Brandy wrote a piece, which would be hard to construe in any other way than as a gaslighting piece, on 13 year old Maddie de Garay on November 3, 2021. The date of Brandy’s piece is no coincidence compared to when the panel took place. In the article she tries to tie people who have Covid Vaccine injuries to anti-vaxers. There’s an obvious little problem in suggesting people who voluntarily took the Covid Vaccines, especially in a trial, are anti-vax. People who are anti-vax would not be seen in the same zip code as a Covid Vaccine trial and probably wouldn’t take the voluntary vaccines at all. Before Brandy Zadrozny wrote her article, she spoke with Trevor Fitzgibbon, who handled Maddie’s Covid Vaccine injury panel press release, to ask him questions. Trevor relayed those questions from Brandy to Stephanie de Garay.

Here are the questions that were asked by Brandy and the answers provided by Stephanie de Garay: 1. Have Maddie’s parents officially found out whether she was in the vaccine group or the placebo group? A. Yes, Vaccine., 2. Where are they in the process of Pfizer’s investigation? Last I saw was that they are still investigating. A. As far as we are aware, they are not investigating. They reported the injury as abdominal pain., 3. Pro Vaccine advocates are concerned that Maddie’s AD (she had an ad that was approved to run during a SNL commercial break, but was cut last minute by Comcast, https://odysee.com/@VSRF:d/maddieaddenied:3?r=2M9u5KF2usQwTWCxABmwYSnk3fawY4V1) is the kind of graphic, unverified video that anti-vaccine advocates use to undermine confidence in the Covid Vaccine and all childhood vaccines (‘I don’t get why people lump all vaccines together, especially when the Covid Vaccines have unique characteristics that would make their injury profiles quite different than others.’). Want to give you a chance to respond. A. We should care about the minority of individuals that will be injured by the COVID-19 vaccine. It is unfortunate that “pro vaccine advocates” feel the need to dismiss those injured by the vaccines in order to promote vaccines. The promotion of vaccines is already rampant — what we need is to recognize the harms they can cause so we can develop treatments for these harms and that is what drives the need for ads like the one being run about Maddie. and 4. Do any of her medical records state her multiple conditions are CAUSED by the vaccine? Some of the things I’ve read have noted the timing correlation, but not a diagnosis of causation. (‘The ole, you got paralyzed soon after the Covid Vaccine as a healthy 12 year old girl, causation doesn’t equal correlation trick. That’s a bold stance!’) A. The medical records for each encounter the day after and for weeks after vaccination reflect the vaccine as the cause of injury.
Let’s recap … which may not go well for Brandy. Before she wrote her NBC News article, Brandy was able to see the panel, had Maddie de Garay’s press release for the panel (here is the full release https://docs.google.com/document/d/1eGKZvUI-ZIk4S8Wy8dYhlFRmr4YLePlH/edit) at her disposal, also received the above answers to her questions, and had these medical records below. Yet, she still wrote what you’re about to read.
Below is an excerpt from Brandy’s article “Covid vaccines for children are coming. So is misinformation.”
“Vaccine advocates are pointing to a recent example spreading quickly on social media as a harbinger for the kind of graphic misinformation that they fear most.
The video, first posted to a fringe anti-vaccine website and then spread through mainstream sites including YouTube and Facebook, is only 30 seconds long, but devastating. In a carousel of vignettes, a young girl with a beaming smile digs in the dirt, dances on her front lawn and celebrates over cake with her family. It then cuts to a closeup shot of the girl’s face as she cries out in pain, her head wrapped in bandages and a tube through her nose. Later, three adults hoist her limp body into a wheelchair, then it quickly cuts to her hospital gown, an intravenous line in her hand and ends, lingering on a video of her legs as she shakes uncontrollably.
The cause of the girl’s condition is unclear. Her mother said on a panel held Tuesday in Washington, D.C., hosted by Sen. Ron Johnson, R-Wisc., that she was injured by a Covid vaccine administered as part of a Pfizer trial at Cincinnati Children’s Hospital. (Johnson has been widely criticized for spreading misleading claims about the vaccines.) The family’s lawyer, Aaron Siri — who also represents the country’s largest anti-vaccine organization, the Informed Consent Action Network — claims the doctors investigating the case misdiagnosed her myriad injuries as unrelated to the vaccine then downplayed them as abdominal pain. In the meantime, anti-vaccine activists have made the girl a poster child for their cause.
The mother of the girl and the group behind the ad have not provided any evidence that the girl was diagnosed as harmed by a Covid-19 vaccine.”
That seems to be an “interesting” take on Brandy’s part, based on the facts. As you can see she attempted a couple of obvious tactics that maybe a few a little light on the IQ fell for. 1. She called someone’s own story about their Covid Vaccine Injury, a 13 year old girl mind you, misinformation and stated there is no evidence of it (despite the evidence of it). As if Brandy is like Facebook’s Algorithm and has no ability to reason, automatically discrediting or censoring anything negative said about the Covid Vaccines. I thought reason is what separated the humans from the rest. 2. Zadrozny tried to tie Maddie and her mother to anti-vaxers by saying the lawyer representing them is an anti-vaccine, wink wink. NO ONE anti-vax signs both their children up for a vaccine trial. What a ridiculous attempt to tie the two together that was blatantly transparent. Perhaps the lawyer is used to representing the vaccine injured and that’s the reason he was hired … because he knows what to do … because Maddie is Covid Vaccine injured like is stated in her medical records. 3. The worst one. Brandy lied. She said Stephanie de Garay provided no proof Maddie was diagnosed as harmed by a Covid-19 Vaccine. She did provide proof. It was in the press release. Brandy chose to ignore it. Unfortunately for this “reporter” … she’s been downgraded to the quotation marks now …. clinical diagnosis is a diagnosis and Maddie de Garay has that. The key parts of the press release were highlighted and everything. It was clear as day, a 3rd grader’s delight and an NBC News reporter’s worst nightmare apparently. I guess it’s simple enough to just ignore what you want in order to protect the narrative you believe in at all costs. Even at the cost of throwing a 13 year old under the bus while not being honest about Covid Vaccine injuries that are occuring.
You can see this upstanding journalist’s gaslighting piece on a Covid Vaccine Injured paralyzed 13 year old girl with a feeding tube below. You are advised to not eat food or drink anything at the same time as reading this. https://www.nbcnews.com/tech/tech-news/vaccine-misinformation-poised-spike-covid-shots-kids-roll-rcna4360
But I digress. Let’s go back to Maddie and Brianne (and others) who had their data distorted or left out altogether in their Covid Vaccine trials. Maddie de Garay, a 12 year old girl at the time, participated in a Pfizer Covid Vaccine Trial. Unfortunately, she is now paralyzed, using a feeding tube, and has constant pain in her stomach, back, and neck because of her Covid Vaccinations. Her side effects to this day, 9 months later after her 2nd dose of the Pfizer Vaccine, are still listed as functional abdominal pain aka a stomach ache, despite her mother Stephanie’s plea for it to be changed. Part of the problem seems to be that the app used in trial to track side effects. It only allowed for Maddie to record solicited adverse events like fever, injection site pain, anaphylaxis, etc., but many of the more severe side effects were not listed as choices. Additionally, there was no write in option for other side effects and you could only report side effects for 7 days after each shot. It’s almost as if they didn’t want to know. Vaccine injuries can start weeks to a few months after the shot. Why are they only tracking for 7 days? Makes ZERO sense if they truly want accurate safety data. One of the main reasons for a trial in the first place! In order to report an adverse event not listed in the app, one of the two options you have is to call the study doctor.
In the EUA amendment and NEJM article, Maddie’s injury is listed as functional abdominal pain, even though her principal investigator was the lead author of the NEJM article (fully aware of her paralyzation and other injuries). By the data collection cutoff for the trial, Maddie had experienced 35 adverse events. Pfizer, nor the FDA, nor the CDC has ever reached out to Maddie or Stephanie. Seems like the bigger story here is the distortion of trial safety data, and not so much taking the time to falsely represent the cause of a 13 year old girl’s medical condition.

About a year ago, Brianne Dressen gladly signed up to be in the AstraZenca (AZ) Covid Vaccine Clinical Trial. “I never had any issue with any vaccine” she said. AZ agreed to pay any medical expense as the result of any medical injury from the trial. A year later and she’s seen the grand sum of $590. She has had to refinance her home to pay for the more than $300,000 in medical bills. Bree quickly fell ill with major neurological issues that have lasted for many months after the first dose. She lost the use of her legs and was diagnosed with MS. The NIH has told her her reaction is an immune mediated response to the spike protein. Dressen wasn’t allowed to get second dose and was dropped from the trial, her data excluded, and access to trial app deleted. Before the app was deleted, she experienced many of the same things Maddie did above with her app. There was no way to track most serious side effects from the app and nowhere to write in side effects. The final report says the individuals that didn’t get the second dose chose to forgo getting it. Brianne claims that’s incorrect, as she was removed from the trial. Either way, why doesn’t her adverse reaction data matter? Do we not care who was harmed from the first dose of the vaccine and how they were harmed when it comes to the safety of them? This seems like a major flaw in the trials. People receiving these shots would care. They deserve their proper informed consent, which they aren’t receiving. Brianne hasn’t heard from officials in regards to the trial in 10 months and all that critical safety data is now lost.
Janet Woodcock, acting Commissioner of the FDA, and Peter Marks, director of the Center for Biologics Evaluation and Research at the FDA, have been asked, begged, and pleaded with repeatedly to acknowledge these severe reactions. They’ve declined. “They know about the issues with the clinical trials, they know about the deaths, they know about the lack of follow up on VAERS, they know about the injuries to children, they know about Maddie, they know about the mandates put on the injured, they know about the suicides as the results of month’s long suffering, they know about the aggressive censorship, they know about the media censorship, they know about the scientific censorship … THEY KNOW ALL OF IT, and they have for months” says Brianne Dressen. Peter Marks has been seen in a video interview commenting on what’s the worst that could happen to children getting the Covid Vaccines (12-15 year olds). The worst he had to say was there was some Myocarditis in males that was typically not severe. You would think, at a minimum, the worst that could happen is paralyzation, based on what happened to Maddie de Garay, whom Peter Marks knows about. Guess that slipped his mind. I’m sure it was an honest mistake. You can watch what he said verbatim below.
Towards the end of Bree’s speech on the panel, she reads a tear jerking letter her friend wrote her before they committed suicide because of their Covid Vaccine injury. It was heartbreaking to hear, but unfortunately, not surprising as I know of others who committed suicide from Covid Vaccine injuries (and Long Haul Covid too).

https://rumble.com/vokrf7-sen.-johnson-expert-panel-on-federal-vaccine-mandates.html *start at 2:29 for Maddie and then Brianne, but the rest of the panel is really important to watch too. Including Ernesto Ramirez, who lost his 16 year old son five days to an enlarged heart after the Pfizer vaccine.*
The organizations that should protect us, aren’t protecting us. Big pharma seems to only care about their own profit motivations, the government won’t help those screaming out for help, social media platforms will censor those talking about their own Covid Vaccine injuries claiming reality is misinformation, and the media will flip whatever on its head and gaslight a child in order to promote their narrative that Covid Vaccines are quite safe without taking everything into consideration or investigating further. Not to sound too dramatic, but that is pretty scary and arguably even evil. Brianne Dressen had a Facebook group of 5,000 Covid Vaccine injured. Her one mistake was letting it get too big. Facebook found them and destroyed the group. They lost contact with many people in crisis when they were shut down. People contemplating suicide that seeked the support of others who were in their position and believed in them, because so many doctors and people in their lives do not. These groups are sometimes the only lifeline for the Covid Vaccine injured, who as you can see get gaslit at ever turn.
It’s a shame what happened to Maddie, Stephanie, and Brianne, and others, because of the Covid Vaccines. They’re very brave to speak out, while ill, when everyone in a position of power seems to be against them. People need to know their stories. People need to know how people and organizations are actively trying to suppress these Covid Vaccine injuries. People need to push back against this very un-American censorship, the lies, and distortions. We need to try to get a better and fairer assessment of the safety profile of the Covid Vaccines and get acknowledgement for the injured and treatment for their Covid Vaccine injuries.
