    Incidentally, funniest thing is that the vaccine companies are fighting amongst themselves claiming patent infringement; one company has sued the other two in the US!!

In the name of covid they have injected carbon nanotube graphene oxide for transhumanism or nano tech mind control through coming chip control through faster 5G network everywhere or most of the cities, same time population control for better control of the world. Soon looks like wars till next pandemic that's what elite and communist chinese agenda for world control or global reset or their new world order through economy losses in many nations and hightech control.

    Doesn't matter if you are a Cyrua Mistry or a Umesh Kathi, when the call comes you just go ! A lesson again for all of us, who never seem to learn. Nothing is permanent. Do good, help people around you, the needy if you have the ability, resources when alive. Only that good remains... everything else down the drains.

    According to learned doctor from Bangalore who had warned about these since 2 years even before vaccines were produced as there are no "Safe & Effective vaccines" at the same time, if they are safe they aren't effective, if effective then they are not safe. Wonder why so many people complied without asking simple questions like why I should take them when they are in experimental stage, are there any solution to withdraw their toxic effects once they are ingested, what are the adverse effects of them which they found out during their trials, if there are compensatory provisions should they cause injuries or deaths etc. People do your own research before taking boosters & no regrets later will heal you. Same way never expose your kids to these toxic jabs as they are now not mandatory as per ruling of the Supreme Court & nobody can be discriminated on the basis of their vaccine status & no students can be barred from sitting for Board Exams. Most importantly no youngsters below 25 are at any risk from these seasonal cold & flu virus infections till today as per data available but are at more risk if they get jabbed.

    There have been numerous mysterious deaths after introduction of the vaccine in otherwise fit youngsters die to sudden blood clots getting lodged in the heart or brain; this can definitely not be a coincidence, but points towards the jab ADR! Recently one 40 year old fitness freak who had a complete medical check up just 10 days ago suddenly collapsed and died due to a cardiac arrest!

    I agree with both you sirs....But, i found out many are suffering from nerve problems/nerve weekness/numbness/senseless etc....In my known circle, two of them even did surgery due to blood clots in nerves few months before. Those who had very good immune system, before vaccination are getting prone to more cold and fever as weather keeps changing. Many who were working in panchayats or holding jobs in health dept. not taken the jabs but got the vaccine certificatation done which govt made compulsory. Many went abroad and came. I dont understand why govt did this way ? It has distributed many free vaccines as well as paid ones. I paid both the times and after that no resistance power at all. I was very sick for three months after the vaccination....vaccine fever i had and with a gap of two days again i got fever with all unwanted symptoms....

    Cynthia, my healthy father in law got a major occlusive stroke 15 days after taking the second jab and was in coma for 8 months before he expired; my wife too developed a sudden blood clot in the heart and was rushed to the hospital and clot was dissolved with medication; now she frequently gets sudden bouts of high BP and tachycardia for which she is on a strict regimen of medicines including blood thinners; before the jab she was fit and healthy!! I was dead against this killer vaccine and have not taken a single dose, even my son!!

    People especially in India come into politics, become ministers, accumulate money in tons and one fine day just depart leaving everything behind. It’s a sad story.

    May Almighty God forgive his sins. May his soul rest in peace and peace to his family. ...All the circus we are doing in politics...we go back of money and status...Hatred, jealousy, and backstabbing are prime resources of politics...But when God gives his judgment we can not escape...Better to do God's wishes and live forever than do evil and die...
