While this isn’t part of a campaign for legislation, here is my personal testimony on 22 October, 2025, to the Massachusetts legislature’s Emergency Preparedness committee. The hearing is recorded with the bill sponsor Durant early at -1:47:33 and the rest starting at -1:31:37 with many excellent testimonies both with personal stories and with convincing research such as -44:40 or -29:05 etc. ~ Personal testimony of Kirstin Beatty

The covid vaccine was fast-tracked at ‘warp’ speed by Trump without even basic testing (1), yet criticism was censored and scorned despite historical research showing RSV vaccines can impair adaptive immunity (i.e. the ability to adapt to related RSV meaning viruses acquired after viral vaccination are harder or can be impossible for the body to fight). (e.g. 2). In addition, mRNA vaccines introduce new technologies such as genetic engineering, which deserve extensive research instead of warp speed.

In the Phillipines the public lost trust in vaccines for good reason, because a vaccine backfired by enhancing the dengue virus; in 2016, over 800,000 public schoolchildren were vaccinated, but by 2019 more than 600 deaths from dengue were under investigation and the vaccine permanently banned (a.). Yet, the same year the FDA approved the same vaccine, Dengvaxia, for the U.S. (b.).

The push to vaccinate & for mandates ignores that pharmaceutical companies historically care more about profit than public interest, concealing harm, but both vaccines and pharmaceutical companies have been elevated like a sacred cow. Vaccines are not and never have been perfect, with historic failures, which is why a federal vaccine court to pay out for harm exists, even if it fails because it lacks independence, easy access, & publicity.

In other countries, sterilization programs have occurred and been hidden as vaccination programs, such as a Kenyan WHO-sponsored tetanus program where the aborting substance was found by 3 independent laboratories (3) (3.1). Extensive sterilization campaigns have occurred across Africa & Latin America, often without telling the recipients. Whether or not planned, the HPV and covid vaccines have been tied to infertility and miscarriage in adverse reports and through research (c., d.).

Historically, vulnerable populations have been subject to pharmaceutical experiments & targeting. The US has had programs for the poor, mentally ill, & minorities to sterilize, test dangerous drugs, take electroshock, lobotomy, drugs, etc. Women and corporate or political opponents (e.g. Adrian Schoolcraft, Jonathan Metzl’s book The Protest Psychosis: How Schizophrenia Became a Black Disease) have also just been called ‘crazy’ and subjected to institutionalization. California ran a sterilization program from 1909 to 1979, but sterilizations continued afterwards targeting people, often Latin American, in state-run homes, hospitals, and institutions including in prisons through 2013 (e.)

As an aside, the Trump administration has repeatedly called for sterilization of the poor, and ICE is accused of sterilizing as well (f., g.). From the 1930s to 70s, the U.S. also subsidized sterilization programs in Puerto Rico, using lies to deny sterilization and threats of loss of benefits (h.).

There is a lot of propaganda to normalize the idea that vaccines are for the greater good, but this suggests we need sacrificial lambs which is the opposite of ethical and good. The US Supreme Court in 1927 actually used this same argument for forced sterilization (4).

A friend’s kid’s veins broke after the covid shot, with blood pooling everywhere under the skin or purpura. It looked awful, like a brown recluse attacked the legs. Now this kid has random leg pains that cause avoidance of physical work. Vein breaks and scarring can disable and/ or reduce life span:

Severe purpura can lead to scarring, torn veins, painful ulcers, swelling, blood clotting, and narrowed veins.
- Vein scarring can lead to post-thrombotic syndrome (PTS), a condition associated with the covid shot, and which causes persistent leg pain, varicose veins, and increases risk of pulmonary embolism.
- Vein damage can also lead to chronic venous insufficiency, where the veins cannot pump blood properly to the heart.
- In fact, torn veins when in the coronary artery are a leading cause of sudden death in women and called SCAD (spontaneous coronary artery dissection).

Leg purpura can be seen, but not if in the internal organs. If scarring happens in the heart this is not seen. This is also called myocarditis, where scar tissue cannot contract like healthy muscle and can cause rhythm disturbances or heart failure.

Authorities admitted myocarditis was tied to some covid vaccine manufacturers. These particular manufacturers were then not recommended in the USA, but data actually showed similar risks from all of the vaccines including the recommended Pfizer and Moderna, which were allowed in the USA.
Connecticut health authorities in May of 2021 reported at least 18 cases of people age 16 to 34 who developed myocarditis after receiving the COVID-19 vaccine. They reported it as ‘mild’ which is a misnomer.
Once the scarring is there, that scarring increases blood clotting.
I saw one nonprofit specific to myocarditis reported 5 years after diagnosis as the expected mortality rate, with earlier death for all. In 2023, a research study also reported for acute cases that short-term mortality is high and remains high 10 years after hospitalization.(5)

I imagine ‘mild’ was used in order to assure the public, as a propaganda tool. We can’t know how many people had scarring inside, because we can’t see it and the authorities said to expect feeling unwell. People did not report effects, and may not connect the long-term dots.

Pfizer actually conducted a study that has not been released on heart damage from the covid vaccination on children ages 5 to 11 in September of 2021, while dropping a number of promised studies in the USA.(6)
Heart attacks are actually increasing in youth and all ages – see images attached below. (7) (8)

Why would anyone study children for heart damage? And if so, why not share the results?

Science is never settled. Science evolves. Largely forgotten, adoption of vaccination was initially controversial due to clinical findings and concerns about the process. Modern research also indicates vaccinations in general impair the immune system, but profits push these findings away.

Covid also normalized and set precedents for removing liberties:

tracking people and allowing social punishment for failure to vaccinate (tracking that has been used to track abortions and No Kings rally attendance)
forcing medication, including untested medications
reducing already limited testing and quality control of pharmaceutical products, including genetically engineered products
embracing censorship ‘for the greater good’
hypocrisy and lies of authorities, that promised a ‘perfect solution’ and then backpedaled on nearly every solution that failed to be realized
government authorities colluding with pharmaceutical industry (e.g. censorship)
slandering critics
calling people who report harm ‘crazy’ or ‘other’ than ‘us’ to stifle dissent
facilitating mob panic, hate, and division rather than listening to concerns and critics

All of these new ‘norms’ are the very norms that allow fascism to flourish. When we yell, prejudge, and deride each other instead of listening, when we say the ends justify losing liberties, when we get lost in a panic, democracy is threatened such as by the very division and anger that enables the vulnerable to be targeted. In fear, mobs can do anything.

The way media and talking heads focus on personal things like RFK Jrs. brain worm is not only low class, but sets a stage where attacks are validated as acceptable and fosters an us-against-them divisive mentality where evil actions against ‘the other’ are wrongly excused. Personal attacks are a red herring, failing to cite facts, but also set a norm for cruelty and unkindness.
