BOTH COVID AND COVID VACCINES OR SUDDENLY SOMETIMES EMERGE MONTHS OR YEARS LATER. MANY PHYSICIANS ARE LEFT IN THE DARK WITHOUT EFFECTIVE TREATMENT GUIDANCE FROM PUBLIC HEALTH EXPERTS. BUT WE FOUND ONE DOCTOR TURNED MEDICAL DETECTIVE WHOSE FINDINGS ARE VIEWED AS SO
GROUNDBREAKING HIS HELP IS SOUGHT AFTER FROM DOCTORS AND PATIENTS ACROSS THE U.S. AND BEYOND. >> IT’S AROUND DOWN RIGHT THERE. LET ME TAKE A LOOK AT YOUR EYE. >> IF THERE’S A SINGULAR PERSON THAT FIRST SET THE GEARS
TURNING FOR DR. JORDAN VAUGHN, IT’S CHAPLAIN. IT WAS DECEMBER 2020, SHORTLY AFTER HIS COVID VACCINES. WHAT WERE YOU FEEL SOMETHING. >> I JUST FELT TERRIBLE. YOU KNOW, DIZZY, LETHARGIC, ALL THOSE KIND OF THINGS. I WAS
HAVING OPTICAL ISSUES TOO. MY VISION WOULD GO BLURRY SUDDENLY. THEN MAYBE A MINUTE OR TWO LATER IT WOULD CLEAR UP. YOU’RE KIND OF PATIENT ZERO FOR DR. VAUGHN. >> THAT’S WHAT HE TOLD ME. ALL I DID WAS GET MY VACCINES AND
REACT IT TO. I DIDN’T NECESSARILY DO ANYTHING SPECIAL EXCEPT MAYBE I FEEL LIKE A METEOR COMING FROM SPACE THAT I DROPPED DOWN NEAR DR. VAUGHN. >> DR. VAUGHN IS AN INTERNAL MEDICINE SPECIALIST AND CEO OF MED HEALTH CLINICS IN ALABAMA.
HE RAN SOME SCANS AND OTHER TESTS ON HIS LONGTIME PATIENT BUT DIDN’T FIND ANYTHING ABNORMAL. >> AT THAT TIME I DID SOME BLOOD WORK, FOUND HE HAD ABNORMAL CLOTTING ISSUES. HE WAS SIGNIFICANTLY SHORT OF BREATH.
>> THE ABNORMAL BLOOD CLOTTING ISSUES WERE THERE ALL ALONG, SAYS VAUGHN, JUST HIDDEN FROM VIEW. >> AS I UNDERSTAND IT, I WAS MAKING LOTS OF BLOOD CLOTS, BUT THEY WERE SO TINY YOU COULDN’T DETECT THEM.
>> SO I TREATED HIM AS IF HE HAD SOMETHING THAT I WASN’T ABLE TO TOTALLY SEE, WHICH WOULD BE SMALLER VASCULAR ISSUES, AND HIS SYMPTOMS SIGNIFICANTLY IMPROVED SO. THAT REALLY PUSHED ME OFF ON REALLY A KIND OF A JOURNEY TO SAY WHAT
IS GOING ON HERE. >> DR. VAUGHN WAS ON TO SOMETHING. BY THE TIME WE VISITED HIS BIRMINGHAM PRACTICE, HE AND HIS TEAM HAD TREATED MORE THAN 1,100 PATIENTS FROM ATHLETES IN THEIR TEENS TO PEOPLE PUSHING AGE 90.
WE ASKED A FEW TO SPEAK WITH US. >> HAD ACUTE COVID THAT REQUIRED HOSPITALIZATION. >> HE’S TREATING MY WIFE FOR BLOOD CLOTTING. >> I HAVE CONGESTIVE HEART FAILURE AS A RESULT OF IT. >> I HAD GI SYMPTOMS AND HEART
ISSUES. >> MANY BLOOD CLOTS IN MY LUNGS. >> THEY REPORT A WIDE RANGE OF DEBILITATING AFTER EFFECTS FROM COVID, COVID VACCINES, OR BOTH. SOME BECAME SICK RIGHT AWAY, OTHERS WERE HIT HARD A YEAR OR EVEN TWO YEARS LATER.
>> I’M 39 AND I HAD SHORTNESS OF BREATH FROM COVID. >> DR. GREG AND HIS WIFE HANNAH, PARENTS TO FIVE CHILDREN, WERE VACCINATED AND GOT COVID. SHE BECAME SO SICK SHE WAS NEARLY BEDRIDDEN FOR TWO YEARS.
>> I FELT LIKE MY BODY WAS JUST SHUTTING DOWN ON ME. AND THERE WASN’T ANYTHING I COULD DO ABOUT IT. >> AFTER A CONSULT WITH THE FAMED MAYO CLINIC BROUGHT NO IMPROVEMENT, GREG, A DERMATOLOGIST WHO ATTENDED MEDICAL SCHOOL WITH DR. VAUGHN,
HEARD ABOUT WHAT VAUGHN WAS DOING AND SOUGHT HIM OUT TO TREAT HIS WIFE. WHAT DID YOU LEARN WAS WRONG WITH YOU? IN LAYMAN’S TERMS IF YOU CAN EXPLAIN IT TO PEOPLE WHO DON’T KNOW ABOUT ALL THE INTRICACIES.
>> SO I LEARNED THAT THERE WERE A LOT OF MICRO CLOTS KIND OF THROUGHOUT MY BODY THAT WAS JUST CAUSING OXYGEN NOT TO BE ABLE TO GET AROUND VERY WELL. HE WAS THE FIRST DOCTOR THAT WHEN I WENT TO SEE HIM, HE
WOULD FINISH MY SENTENCES FOR HOW I WAS FEELING. THAT WAS — I MEAN, I THINK I STARTED CRYING THE FIRST TIME, BECAUSE THAT WAS SO NEW. AND HE UNDERSTOOD. AND HE SAID, YOU KNOW, IT ALL MAKES SENSE.
>> WHAT IS THE TREATMENT HE GAVE YOU AND HOW DO YOU FEEL TODAY? >> SO HE PUT ME ON A TRIPLE THERAPY. WITHIN A FEW DAYS I NOTICED A DIFFERENCE. BUT WITHIN TWO WEEKS I FELT LIKE I
HAD RISEN FROM THE DEAD. I GOT MY VOICE BACK. I COULD WALK. I COULD DO THINGS. >> AND THEN TO SEE THE TURNAROUND, IT WAS PRETTY DRAMATIC IN A WAY THAT I PERSONALLY HAVE NOT GOTTEN TO
WITNESS A LOT OF IN MY CAREER. >> ANOTHER PHYSICIAN WHO SOUGHT DR. VAUGHN’S HELP IS 88-YEAR-OLD DONALD CARMICHAEL, A RETIRED VASCULAR SURGEON AND FORMER PROFESSOR OF SURGERY AT THE UNIVERSITY OF ALABAMA AT BIRMINGHAM. HE AND HIS WIFE, MARY ALICE, BOTH VACCINATED AND
BOOSTED, SAY THEY GOT COVID MORE THAN ONCE. THE LAST TIME A NEAR KILLER FOR HIM. >> THOUGHT HE WAS NOT GOING TO LIVE THROUGH THE NIGHT. OUR SON, WHO IS A FRIEND OF DR. JORDAN VAUGHN, SAID WE’RE NOT TAKING YOU ANYWHERE ELSE EXCEPT
TO HIM IN THE MORNING. HIS TREATMENT PUT HIM BACK, BASICALLY, IN FULL HEALTH. AND HE WAS SO GIDDY I THOUGHT HE HAD LOST HIS MIND. >> THERE ARE ALSO YOUNG ATHLETES. THE CASE OF 15-YEAR-OLD BRADEN LITTLE
BAFFLED DOCTORS FOR TWO YEARS. HE’S SEEN HERE SUDDENLY COLLAPSING ON THE COURT AFTER COVID. AFTER SEEING DR. VAUGHN, HE’S SO VASTLY IMPROVED HE’S BACK ON THE ROAD PLAYING AGAIN. 19-YEAR-OLD RUNNER ELLEN IS HOPING FOR A SIMILAR RECOVERY.
SHE’S ALSO A PATIENT OF DR. VAUGHN’S AFTER GETTING VACCINATED, GETTING COVID, AND GETTING VERY SICK. >> I MEAN, I CAN PINPOINT THE DAY, THE TIME WHERE I WAS WHEN I — I WAS RUNNING, DOING A WORKOUT, AND ALL OF A SUDDEN I
CANNOT FEEL MY LEGS. I CANNOT FEEL — I MEAN, MY HEART RATE IS GOING 200. I CAN’T DO IT, I CALL MY DAD, I’M DONE WORKING OUT, I CAN’T DO IT. AND I WENT FOR THREE OR FOUR MONTHS OF JUST FEELING AWFUL.
>> YOU HAD TO GIVE UP RUNNING, OBVIOUSLY, FOR A PERIOD OF TIME. >> I CAN’T DO ANY TYPE OF WORKING OUT. I CAN GO ON A WALK, BUT IT HAS TO BE LIKE A SMALL, SHORT WALK FOR A SHORT
PERIOD OF TIME. AND IF I DO EVER DO IT, I FEEL — ALL I CAN DO THE NEXT DAY IS LAY DOWN, SO. >> TOGETHER VAUGHN AND HIS SMALL TEAM ARE UNRAVELLING SOME OF 2 THE EMERGING MYSTERIES THAT HAVE BECOME TABOO TO
DISCUSS IN SOME PRACTICES, ESPECIALLY WHEN IT CROSSES INTO VACCINE ADVERSE EVENTS. >> THERE’S TWO WORLDS, BEFORE COVID AND AFTER COVID. A LOT OF DOCTORS ARE LIVING IN THE BEFORE COVID WORLD WHERE EVERYTHING’S IN THE TEXTBOOK. WHEN YOU HAVE A SYNDROME THAT
COMES BEFORE YOU AND IT HAPPENS TO BE ASSOCIATED WITH THIS NEW PATHOGEN THAT EVERYONE SEEMS TO HAVE BEEN IN CONTACT WITH, YOU’VE GOT TO KIND OF OPEN YOUR EYES, OPEN YOUR EARS, AND ALSO GET INTO THE LITERATURE AND TRY TO FIGURE OUT WHAT THE HECK’S
GOING ON. >> VAUGHN THINKS HE’S FIGURED OUT WHY PEOPLE WHO’VE HAD BOTH COVID AND COVID VACCINES OFTEN SEEM TO GET THE SICKEST AND IT HAS TO DO WITH WHAT’S SEEN IN THESE IMMUNOFLUORESCENT IMAGES. >> IT’S THE FIRST RESPONSE MECHANISM.
>> FORMS A CLOT IF YOU’RE INJURED OR SOMETHING? >> TRAUMA, INFECTION, THOSE KIND OF THINGS. YOU’RE GOING TO MAKE IT IN RESPONSE TO THAT. WHAT YOU USUALLY MAKE IS LIKE SPAGHETTI OUT OF A COLANDER, BUT IF IT’S ASSOCIATED WITH
COVID AND THE VACCINE, IT’S LIKE BURNT SPAGHETTI WITH CHEESE IN IT THAT YOU HAVE TO GET A BRILL LOW PAD AND GET IT OFF THE BOTTOM OF A CASSEROLE DISH. THAT’S WHY IT’S UNIQUE. IT’S RESISTANT TO BEING BROKEN DOWN. LITERALLY EVERYONE WHEN
THEY HAVE THE SPIKE PROTEIN EXPOSURE FROM THE VACCINE OR INFECTION, YOU’RE GOING TO MAKE SOME OF THESE. THE QUESTION IS WHO CAN GET RID OF THEM. IF YOU CAN’T GET RID OF THEM, THEY SLEDGE UP THE SMALL VESSELS AND INHIBIT THE DELIVERY OF
SUBSTRATES, LIKE RED BLOOD CELLS WHICH CARRY OXYGEN. YOU’RE GOING TO HAVE SIGNIFICANT DYSFUNCTION AT EVERY LEVEL. >> DR. VAUGHN IS DRAWING FROM EMERGING RESEARCH AND SOME OF THE RESEARCH IS CONFIRMING HIS OWN CONCLUSIONS. RESEARCHERS RECENTLY REPORTED PERSISTENT
SYMPTOMS AFTER VACCINATION, LONG VAX, ARE SIMILAR TO THOSE REPORTED WITH LONG COVID. SCIENCE MAGAZINE WRITES, RARE LINK BETWEEN CORONAVIRUS VACCINES AND LONG COVID-LIKE ILLNESS STARTS TO GAIN ACCEPTANCE. ACCORDING TO CDC, COVID VACCINES INSTRUCT THE
PATIENT CELLS TO MAKE THE SAME SPIKE PROTEIN THAT’S IN COVID. >> THIS SMALL RNA SEQUENCE WHEN INJECTED INTO THE MUSCLE INITIATES THE PRODUCTION OF SPIKE PROTEINS. >> THE SPIKE PROTEINS SOME SCIENTISTS NOW SAY ARE APPARENTLY CAUSING DAMAGE
THROUGH MICROCLOTS MONTHS OR YEARS LATER. BACK IN DECEMBER OF 2020, A CHILLING FORESHADOWING FROM A HARVARD-AFFILIATED PEDIATRIC SPECIALIST. IN A LETTER TO THE FDA JUST BEFORE THE FIRST VACCINES HIT THE MARKET, DR. PATRICK WROTE IT APPEARS THAT
THE VIRAL SPIKE PROTEIN CREATED AFTER COVID VACCINES IS ALSO ONE OF THE KEY AGENTS CAUSING THE DAMAGE TO DISTANT ORGANS. HE CALLED FOR MORE RESEARCH AND WARNED IT WOULD BE VASTLY WORSE IF HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS OF PEOPLE WERE TO SUFFER LONG
LASTING OR EVEN PERMANENT DAMAGE TO THEIR BRAIN OR HEART VESSELS AS AN UNINTENDED EFFECT OF VACCINES. >> THE SILVER LINING IS WE’RE GOING TO START TO UNDERSTAND WHAT IS HAPPENING THERE AT THE TISSUE LEVEL. YOU’RE BASICALLY
NOT GETTING OXYGEN OUT TO THE TISSUES. THOSE TISSUES CAN BE ANYTHING FROM YOUR BRAIN TO YOUR VISION TO YOUR ABILITY TO TAKE A BIG DEEP BREATH ALL THE WAY DOWN TO WHETHER YOU CAN RUN OR DO OTHER THINGS. THE PROBLEM IS WHEN SOMETHING AFFECTS EVERY
SYSTEM, IT’S NOT — IT’S A LITTLE DIFFERENT TO ADDRESS IT. AND IT TAKES SOMEBODY WHO’S — WHO CAN PUT THE PIECES OF THE PUZZLE TOGETHER. >> TODAY VAUGHN AND HIS TEAM ARE FIELDING REQUESTS FOR HELP FROM AS FAR AWAY AS GERMANY,
CONDUCTING ORIGINAL RESEARCH AND SHARING WHAT THEY’RE LEARNING. >> I SPEAK TO GROUPS OF A COUPLE HUNDRED PHYSICIANS EVERY COUPLE — EVERY MONTH OR SO. I HAVE EVEN ROUNDTABLES AT NIGHT ON ZOOM WITH A BUNCH OF PHYSICIANS THAT ARE INTERESTED
IN WHAT WE’RE DOING. A LOT OF PEOPLE THAT REALLY CARE ABOUT THEIR PATIENTS HAVE REALIZED WHATEVER THEY’RE DOING IS NOT WORKING, AND WE’VE GOT TO FIGURE OUT A WAY TO HELP THEM. >> TODAY VAUGHN AND HIS TEAM
ARE FIELDING REQUEST FOR HELP FROM
