The Pfizer Papers Pfizer’s Crimes Against Humanity [Audiobook]

Free Download The WarRoom/DailyClout Pfizer Documents Analysts, Naomi Wolf, Amy Kelly, Laura Darrell (Narrator), "The Pfizer Papers: Pfizer’s Crimes Against Humanity"
English | ASIN: B0DGVN1TMD | 2024 | MP3@64 kbps | ~16:01:00 | 440 MB
The Pfizer Papers features new reports written by WarRoom/DailyClout research volunteers, which are based on the primary source Pfizer clinical trial documents released under court order and on related medical literature. The book shows in high relief that Pfizer’s mRNA COVID-19 vaccine clinical trial was deeply flawed and that the pharmaceutical company knew by November 2020 that its vaccine was neither safe nor effective. The reports detail vaccine-induced harms throughout the human body, including to the reproductive system; show that women suffer vaccine-related adverse events at a 3:1 ratio; expose that vaccine-induced myocarditis is not rare, mild, or transient; and, shockingly, demonstrate that the mRNA vaccines have created a new category of multi-system, multi-organ disease, which is being called "CoVax Disease."
Despite the fact that Pfizer committed in its own clinical trial protocol to follow the placebo arm of its trial for twenty-four months, Pfizer vaccinated approximately 95 percent of placebo recipients by March 2021, thus eliminating the trial’s control group and making it impossible for comparative safety determinations to be made.

Dispatches from the Mind The Enlightenment Papers about All That Is


Free Download Dispatches from the Mind: The Enlightenment Papers about All That Is by Kevin Scott King
English | October 12, 2023 | ISBN: N/A | ASIN: B0CKYFR15R | 268 pages | EPUB | 3.55 Mb
This book recounts the extraordinary experiences that happened to a seemingly conventional housewife and mother of three. On a day in early 1974, Linda Shields King sat down to compose a letter to her parents when, without warning, her first automatic writings ensued. The letter she wanted to write became a lesson intended for her. It began with the words "All that is is of the Mind. The Mind is the Reality," followed another day by "The Mind Is. All else is not." From then on, the floodgates opened. Intriguing messages and vivid dreams taught the nature of reality, the Universe’s creation, and the soul’s ultimate goal, revealing a long-forgotten spiritual quest.

Classic Papers in Geriatric Medicine with Current Commentaries


Free Download Classic Papers in Geriatric Medicine with Current Commentaries By Robert J. Pignolo MD, PhD (auth.), Robert J. Pignolo MD, PhD, Monica K. Crane MD, Mary Ann Forciea MD (eds.)
2008 | 172 Pages | ISBN: 1588299988 | PDF | 13 MB
The field of geriatrics foundations is rooted in the classic papers of early descriptions of aging and age-related diseases. In Classic Papers in Geriatric Medicine with Current Commentaries, the authors chose the "classic" papers, providing a combination of expert opinion and objective assessment. The 15 areas in this volume represent the beginnings of practice and thoughts about the best ways to care for older patients. Each paper is introduced by a commentary describing the singular contributions of the chosen paper, with a short list of other important early papers in that area, and, in many cases, reflect on progress in that particular field. The commentaries are personal statements by the authors about the influence of the papers chosen; not meant to be exhaustive reviews of the clinical area in question. Classic Papers in Geriatric Medicine with Current Commentaries exemplifies the importance of a paper and its ability to retain its impact over time. While many of the classic papers in this collection have stood the test of time, others have gained classic status by virtue of their profound influence in relatively quick measure or because of timeliness in filling a void in knowledge.

Milton Friedman on Economics Selected Papers [Audiobook]


Free Download Milton Friedman, Gary S. Becker, Kyle Snyder (Narrator), "Milton Friedman on Economics: Selected Papers"
English | ASIN: B0D9R98MYJ | 2024 | MP3@64 kbps | ~07:26:00 | 205 MB
On his death in the autumn of 2006, Milton Friedman was lauded as "the grandmaster of free-market economic theory in the postwar era" by the New York Times and "the most influential economist of the second half of the 20th century" by the Economist. Winner of the Nobel Prize in Economics in 1976, Friedman was both a highly respected economist and a prominent public intellectual, the leader of a revolution in economic and political thought that argued robustly in favor of virtues of free markets and laissez-faire policies.
Milton Friedman on Economics: Selected Papers collects a variety of Friedman’s papers on topics in economics that were originally published in the Journal of Political Economy. Opening with Friedman’s 1977 Nobel Lecture, the volume spans nearly the whole of his career, incorporating papers from as early as 1948 and as late as 1990. An excellent introduction to Friedman’s economic thought, Milton Friedman will be essential for anyone tracing the course of twentieth-century economics and politics.
