Impact of Vaccines on Aortic Health
The vaccines are known to enter the
bloodstream shortly after injections,
and this does raise questions as to how it could impact the blood vessels.
So, what have been your observations on this point?
Well, first of all, the spike protein, which is on the one hand produced
by the virus in viral infection, but on the other side is induced
by the vaccination in the body.
But these two possibilities have completely different access to the body cells.
The endothelium,
which is the lining of the vessels,
is not an immunocompetent cell structure.
So, the toxin that is entering into the bloodstream and into the lymphatic vessels
directly hits the cells that are not able to to
defend themselves. So, they may be destroyed.
What is being observed here, and why is it significant?
Can you talk about this case in particular? Yes.
You see a section of the aorta, and if you see on the left side,
there's a solid wall, which is a kind of yellow coloration.
Yellow is the color
of the elastic fibers, by the way.
And then you see that
there's a split formation in the middle, and then there, on the right side,
there are actually two walls.
And in the middle, there's this
black material which actually is blood.
So there has been blood flown into this dissected aorta.
The media, what we call the media of the aorta, has been destroyed,
and the blood has entered.
And once the blood has entered there, and then the aorta may rupture,
and the people die of blood loss.
I also want to look at this image from a microscopic viewpoint.
So here again is the dissection of the aorta.
This is the same aortic wall,
but this time it is stained with HE,
which we talked about earlier, and placed under a microscope.
So here are the two images.
Can you describe in a greater detail what we are seeing here?
Now that it's under the microscope and there's also dye applied, what can we
tell about this aortic dissection?
Yes, if you look at the left side,
on top you see the lumen of the aorta,
where once the blood was flowing.
Then there is the inner section of the aorta,
and below there's a dissection, and then you have the outer wall.
So as I said, the wall is split into two.
And you see the red here is the bleeding, and then you see this line
of blue dots. These are inflammatory cells.
And on the right side, we have a higher magnification.
And here you can see that actually on the left side
you see the inner wall of the aorta and then on the right side the bleeding.
And in the interface there is this infiltration of mostly lymphocytic cells,
some macrophages are also there. Why do we do this?
I mean, the dissection of the aorta you can see
without the microscope, but of course a dissection of the aorta may have
different causes.
We did the immunohistochemistry for the spike protein and it is
selectively located in these areas.
So this is an additional proof.
Just to tie it all together,
I want to make note that this methodology that you use was not
used during the initial autopsies. Is that correct?
Yes, this is correct.
Okay. Before the rollout or implementation of the COVID 19 vaccines,
how common was an aortic dissection?
As I said, we did about 1 500 to
2 000 autopsies a year and I might say it
might have been one or two a year at that time.
And in this series of 75 autopsies that we have re examined,
we saw five ruptures of the aorta with
consecutive deaths.
