Are health hazards of those taking mRNA-based Covid-19 vaccines a non-issue?

By Jeswan Kaur*
The narrative surrounding the Wuhan virus infamously called Covid-19 is as mind boggling as the lies and ignorance surrounding it. The result – a just as confused and scared population the world over, unsure of the truths and nature of the virus and safety of the hastily produced vaccines.
Making matters worse is the blatant disregard for truth and abject disregard for the safety and well-being of the people. One such horror comes in the form a consultant paediatrician Dr Musa Mohd Nordin who has refuted the fact that the Covid-19 vaccines are experimental in nature.
His ”understanding” – technology used in the making of these vaccines is not a new find and has been used in the past.
The Sinar in its March 3, 2022 publication quoted Dr Musa as saying:
“I think people who are saying the Covid-19 vaccine is experimental only now know about vaccines whereas the mRNA technology has been known since 1990 while ‘inactivated vaccine’ has been known since 1950.
“The Covid-19 vaccine has been used by 6.5 billion people worldwide and which means it is no longer experimental.”
Further misleading remarks from Dr Musa had him saying that those who rejected the vaccines and relied solely on their natural immunity to prevent being infected were only endangering themselves citing the United Kingdom as one nation having made such a mistake.
Now, where do I begin to educate this consultant paediatrician? That billions have been jabbed with the Covid-19 vaccines is how Dr Musa wants to justify its existence?
What happened to the years of trials necessary in the making of a vaccine? The pitfalls and harm that come with a new vaccine or finding?
Are health hazards being faced by those vaccinated with the mRNA-based Covid-19 vaccines a non-issue? If indeed the Covid-19 vaccines are not experimental in nature, why the hesitancy from the Malaysian government to undertake any form of assurance to allay public fears?
That vaccine manufacturers, doctors and governments throughout the world are playing safe by clutching on a zero-liability “loophole” to avoid accountability in terms of Covid-19 vaccines safety and defects speaks volumes.
Yet there are ill-informed and unethical doctors like Dr Musa who have no qualms promoting these dangerous vaccines. Just how much does he understand the miseries vaccines in general have caused, be they for rubella or polio and now Covid- 19?
mRNA vaccines specialise in gene editing and where Covid-19 goes, the vaccines have proven to be neither safe or effective given the adverse reactions they have caused in those who are vaccinated.
That and the fact that those vaccinated still end up being infected and go on to infect others begs proper and honest mulling, not some agenda-based responses.
Dr Musa’s hostility towards natural immunity is worrying. Instead of rejoicing over our natural immunity, he has poured scorn over it, finding faults instead of giving it the attention and value it deserves. Natural immunity is the “Archilles heel” of the vaccine programme.
Likewise, the Covid-19 virus has yet to be isolated. So why all the “chaos” around it? What about the vaccine ingredients – mercury, aluminium, formaldehyde, fetal bovine serum, African monkey kidney cells which bring with them SV40 virus which causes HIV, modified human embryonic kidney cells, genetically modified organisms and graphene oxide among others – how do they heal the individual?
Dare Dr Musa negate these facts? Or is he even aware of the reality behind the Covid-19 vaccines?
The truth is liberating. Perhaps Oscar Wilde has said it best “the truth is rarely pure and never simple.”

Plastic burning in homes threatens food, water and air across Global South: Study

By Jag Jivan In a groundbreaking study spanning 26 countries across the Global South , researchers have uncovered the widespread and concerning practice of households burning plastic waste as a fuel for cooking, heating, and other domestic needs. The research, published in Nature Communications , reveals that this hazardous method of managing both waste and energy poverty is driven by systemic failures in municipal services and the unaffordability of clean alternatives, posing severe risks to human health and the environment.

From protest to proof: Why civil society must rethink environmental resistance

By Shankar Sharma* As concerned environmentalists and informed citizens, many of us share deep unease about the way environmental governance in our country is being managed—or mismanaged. Our complaints range across sectors and regions, and most of them are legitimate. Yet a hard question confronts us: are complaints, by themselves, effective? Experience suggests they are not.

Economic superpower’s social failure? Inequality, malnutrition and crisis of India's democracy

By Vikas Meshram India may be celebrated as one of the world’s fastest-growing economies, but a closer look at who benefits from that growth tells a starkly different story. The recently released World Inequality Report 2026 lays bare a country sharply divided by wealth, privilege and power. According to the report, nearly 65 percent of India’s total wealth is owned by the richest 10 percent of its population, while the bottom half of the country controls barely 6.4 percent. The top one percent—around 14 million people—holds more than 40 percent, the highest concentration since 1961. Meanwhile, the female labour force participation rate is a dismal 15.7 percent.

From colonial mercantilism to Hindutva: New book on the making of power in Gujarat

By Rajiv Shah Professor Ghanshyam Shah ’s latest book, “ Caste-Class Hegemony and State Power: A Study of Gujarat Politics ”, published by Routledge , is penned by one of Gujarat ’s most respected chroniclers, drawing on decades of fieldwork in the state. It seeks to dissect how caste and class factors overlap to perpetuate the hegemony of upper strata in an ostensibly democratic polity. The book probes the dominance of two main political parties in Gujarat—the Indian National Congress and the BJP—arguing that both have sustained capitalist growth while reinforcing Brahmanic hierarchies.

Urgent need to study cause of large number of natural deaths in Gulf countries

By Venkatesh Nayak* According to data tabled in Parliament in April 2018, there are 87.76 lakh (8.77 million) Indians in six Gulf countries, namely Bahrain, Kuwait, Oman, Qatar, Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates (UAE). While replying to an Unstarred Question (#6091) raised in the Lok Sabha, the Union Minister of State for External Affairs said, during the first half of this financial year alone (between April-September 2018), blue-collared Indian workers in these countries had remitted USD 33.47 Billion back home. Not much is known about the human cost of such earnings which swell up the country’s forex reserves quietly. My recent RTI intervention and research of proceedings in Parliament has revealed that between 2012 and mid-2018 more than 24,570 Indian Workers died in these Gulf countries. This works out to an average of more than 10 deaths per day. For every US$ 1 Billion they remitted to India during the same period there were at least 117 deaths of Indian Workers in Gulf ...

The greatest threat to our food system: The aggressive push for GM crops

History, culture and literature of Fatehpur, UP, from where Maulana Hasrat Mohani hailed

By Vidya Bhushan Rawat* Maulana Hasrat Mohani was a member of the Constituent Assembly and an extremely important leader of our freedom movement. Born in Unnao district of Uttar Pradesh, Hasrat Mohani's relationship with nearby district of Fatehpur is interesting and not explored much by biographers and historians. Dr Mohammad Ismail Azad Fatehpuri has written a book on Maulana Hasrat Mohani and Fatehpur. The book is in Urdu. He has just come out with another important book, 'Hindi kee Pratham Rachna: Chandayan' authored by Mulla Daud Dalmai.' During my recent visit to Fatehpur town, I had an opportunity to meet Dr Mohammad Ismail Azad Fatehpuri and recorded a conversation with him on issues of history, culture and literature of Fatehpur. Sharing this conversation here with you. Kindly click this link. --- *Human rights defender. Facebook https://www.facebook.com/vbrawat , X @freetohumanity, Skype @vbrawat

Counterview Desk India’s civil society network, National Alliance of People’s Movements (NAPM)* has said that the controversial transgender Bill, passed in the Rajya Sabha on November 26, which happened to be the 70th anniversary of the Indian Constitution, is a reflection on the way the Government of India looks at the marginalized community with utter contempt.
