“The prestigious Salk Institute, founded by vaccine pioneer Jonas Salk, has authored and published a bombshell scientific article revealing that the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein is what’s actually causing vascular damage in covid patients and covid vaccine recipients, promoting the strokes, heart attacks, migraines, blood clots and other harmful reactions that have already killed thousands of Americans (source). Critically, all four covid vaccine brands currently in widespread use either inject patients with the spike protein or, via mRNA technology, instruct the patient’s own body to manufacture spike proteins and release them into their own blood. This floods the patient’s body with the very spike protein that the Salk Institute has now identified as the smoking gun cause of vascular damage and related events (such as blood clots, which are killing many people who take the vaccines). Put simply, it means the vaccines were designed to contain the very element that’s killing people. The false assumption of the vaccine industry and its propagandists is that the spike protein is “inert” and harmless. The Salk Institute proves this assumption to be dangerously inaccurate.
Salk Institute: The spike protein “damages cells” and causes “vascular disease” even without a virus
In an article entitled, “The novel coronavirus’ spike protein plays additional key role in illness“, published on April 30th, 2021, the Salk Institute warns that, “Salk researchers and collaborators show how the protein damages cells, confirming COVID-19 as a primarily vascular disease.” From that article: Now, a major new study shows that the virus spike proteins (which behave very differently than those safely encoded by vaccines) also play a key role in the disease itself. The paper, published on April 30, 2021, in Circulation Research, also shows conclusively that COVID-19 is a vascular disease, demonstrating exactly how the SARS-CoV-2 virus damages and attacks the vascular system on a cellular level. “A lot of people think of it as a respiratory disease, but it’s really a vascular disease,” says Assistant Research Professor Uri Manor, who is co-senior author of the study. “That could explain why some people have strokes, and why some people have issues in other parts of the body. The commonality between them is that they all have vascular underpinnings.” …the paper provides clear confirmation and a detailed explanation of the mechanism through which the protein damages vascular cells for the first time. In the new study, the researchers created a “pseudovirus” that was surrounded by SARS-CoV-2 classic crown of spike proteins, but did not contain any actual virus. Exposure to this pseudovirus resulted in damage to the lungs and arteries of an animal model—proving that the spike protein alone was enough to cause disease. Tissue samples showed inflammation in endothelial cells lining the pulmonary artery walls.
The team then replicated this process in the lab, exposing healthy endothelial cells (which line arteries) to the spike protein. They showed that the spike protein damaged the cells by binding ACE2. This binding disrupted ACE2’s molecular signaling to mitochondria (organelles that generate energy for cells), causing the mitochondria to become damaged and fragmented. Previous studies have shown a similar effect when cells were exposed to the SARS-CoV-2 virus, but this is the first study to show that the damage occurs when cells are exposed to the spike protein on its own. “If you remove the replicating capabilities of the virus, it still has a major damaging effect on the vascular cells, simply by virtue of its ability to bind to this ACE2 receptor, the S protein receptor, now famous thanks to COVID,” Manor explains. “Further studies with mutant spike proteins will also provide new insight towards the infectivity and severity of mutant SARS CoV-2 viruses.” The article does not mention that covid-19 vaccines are injecting patients with the very same spike protein that was studied, but this fact is widely known and even touted by the vaccine industry. The upshot of this research is that covid vaccines are inducing vascular disease and directly causing injuries and deaths stemming to blood clots and other vascular reactions. This is all caused by the spike protein that’s deliberately engineered into the vaccines.
From the medical journal Circulation Research: The spike protein is what’s causing the damage
The Salk Institute article refers to this science paper published in Circulation Research: SARS-CoV-2 Spike Protein Impairs Endothelial Function via Downregulation of ACE 2. This paper is the first to document the mechanism by which spike proteins — even ones lacking an active viral component — cause vascular destruction by binding to ACE2 receptors and inhibiting the function of cellular mitochondria. From the paper: SARS-CoV-1 [Spike] protein promotes lung injury by decreasing the level of ACE2 in the infected lungs. In the current study, we show that S protein alone can damage vascular endothelial cells (ECs) by downregulating ACE2 and consequently inhibiting mitochondrial function.
Also from the paper: We next studied the impact of S protein on mitochondrial function. Confocal images of ECs treated with S1 protein revealed increased mitochondrial fragmentation, indicating altered mitochondrial dynamics… Moreover, ACE2-L overexpression caused increased basal acidification rate, glucose-induced glycolysis, maximal glycolytic capacity, and glycolytic reserve (Figure [D], ii). Also, ECs incubated with S1 protein had attenuated mitochondrial function but increased glycolysis, when compared with control cells treated with IgG… …our data reveals that S protein alone can damage endothelium, manifested by impaired mitochondrial function and eNOS activity but increased glycolysis. It appears that S protein in ECs increases redox stress which may lead to AMPK deactivation, MDM2 upregulation, and ultimately ACE2 destabilization. The study, obviously authored by a pro-vaccine organization, then says that “vaccination-generated antibodies” may protect the body from the spike protein. Thus, the paper is essentially saying (paraphrased): “The spike protein may cause enormous damage to the vascular system when a person is injected with that spike protein, and when that person’s immune system attacks the spike protein and neutralizes it, the damage may be halted.” In other words, the human immune system is trying to protect the patient from the damage caused by the vaccine, before the patient is killed by the adverse reactions. Put another way, any person who actually survives the covid vaccine only does so because their innate immune system is protecting them from the vaccine, not with the vaccine. The vaccine is the weapon. Your immune system is your defense.
All covid vaccines should be immediately halted and recalled
Based on this research alone, all covid vaccines should be immediately pulled from the market and reevaluated for long-term side effects. According to government published VAERS data, vaccine deaths in 2021 (so far) are already nearly 4,000% higher than all the vaccine deaths of 2020, combined.
What’s new in 2021? The covid vaccine, built with the spike protein that causes vascular damage. The number of Americans who died after taking covid vaccines is already in the thousands, and realistic estimates put that number at tens of thousands (with more dying each day). The mechanism is now well understood: The covid vaccine injects the patient with spike proteins, the spike proteins proceed to cause vascular damage and blood platelet aggregation, this leads to blood clots which circulate around the body and lodge in different organs (the hart, lungs, brain, etc.), causing deaths that are attributed to “strokes” or “heart attacks” or “pulmonary embolism.” The common cause is the vascular damage stemming from the spike protein. In essence, millions of people are being injected with artificial blood clotting factors and then dying from blood clots, all while the disastrously dishonest corporate media claims all covid vaccines are completely “safe” and have harmed no one.
mRNA vaccines turn your body into a spike protein bioweapons factory to expose others
mRNA vaccines transform the human body’s own cells into spike protein factories, spilling deadly spike protein particles into the bloodstream. A growing number of researchers are also finding that these spike proteins appear to be “shedding” or transmitting from the vaccinated to the unvaccinated, causing adverse reactions in people who were never vaccinated themselves, but who have spent time close to other people who were. The technology behind this is called “self-replicating vaccines,” and it was pioneered by doctors and scientists working under the racist Apartheid regime of South Africa. There, medical researchers designed race-specific, weaponized, self-replicating vaccines that were designed to spread through the Black population of South Africa and exterminate the masses who posed a threat to the ruling technocratic elite. Today, we are all the targets of these weapon systems as globalists seek to exterminate human populations on a global scale, regardless of skin color or country of origin.
Just this year, the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health has celebrated this self-replicating vaccine technology and is calling for it to be used to achieve global mass vaccination, augmented by surveillance drones and AI robots that enforce vaccine compliance (probably at gunpoint). In effect, mRNA vaccines function as bioweapons factories that turn human beings into biological weapon manufacturing and transmission hubs, spreading vascular damage and death to the entire population, including those who were not yet vaccinated.
All covid vaccines are risky medical experiments, yet the oblivious masses are brainwashed and told the vaccines have all been “approved” as safe and effective
The FDA has not granted therapeutic approval for any covid-19 vaccine, and no long-term trials have been completed to show covid-19 vaccines as safe and effective. Rather, the FDA granted experimental authorization use in the USA, which admits that those who take the vaccines are participating in a risky medical experiment with unknown consequences. Those who take the vaccine are often brainwashed or deceived by the lying corporate media which falsely claims covid vaccines have been “approved” by the FDA and have harmed no one. The government’s own VAERS data at VAERS.hhs.gov proves otherwise. In today’s Situation Update podcast, I explain all this in more detail, revealing how covid vaccines were designed from the very start to be depopulation / euthanasia injections to achieve global depopulation (mass murder via vaccines). This conclusion is now irrefutable. The vaccines literally inject people with the very substance that kills them. This isn’t medicine; it’s medical violence against humanity. The medical science establishment that pushes vaccines is now engaged in Holocaust-level crimes against humanity. Josef Mengele would be proud. He was eventually executed by public hanging for his crimes against humanity.

You all need a proper understanding of how viruses infect the body and how that differs from vaccine technology. I’m a believer and a PhD in Microbiology by the way. You are not reading this Salk report properly and in fact are jumping to conclusions that in the plain text of the article it tells you is NOT occurring. I refer you to this blog post for a primer on the subject. https://blogs.sciencemag.org/pipeline/archives/2021/05/04/spike-protein-behavior
I think this is the difficult times that we are living in…that often times a hypothesis is presented as truth, without any existing data to either confirm or deny this. So, with Derek Lowe’s blog post regarding this Salk institute’s paper, he is in essence presenting ONE explanation of how these vaccine mediated spike proteins (vs wild type) are synthesized, taken up and processed in our bodies. I do find it rather myopic and even somewhat leaning on “blind faith” that “everything will go according to plan”. It’s common to view science in these specialized silos or reductionistic lenses; I can see how he might believe that these spike proteins would adhere to the process that he so eloquently outlined. However, we need to take a step back and consider a more wholistic view, that is, we all aware that our bodies consists of complex systems, and we simply do not know if these mRNA synthesized spike proteins will absolutely behave the way he describes it 100% of the time; but more importantly, we do not know how the rest of the immune system, the endothelial cells, the organs, etc will interact with and/or dispose of them.
As Brett Weinstein’s claimed that this blogger’s post quite an idealized version of the process. You can hear him in this podcast here.

Ultimately, NO ONE has ever studied what these vaccine-produced spike proteins really do–or at least nothing was ever published. How many “vaccine” spike proteins are manufactured in our bodies? How long does this process last?When do we stop making these spike proteins? Where do they go? Will all of these vaccine-type spike proteins attached themselves to cells the way they are suppose to 100% of the time?
This is the same “rebuttal” that was given when Dr. Michael Yeadon brought up his concerns that the SARS-COV2 spike proteins were very similar to Syncytin-1 . And if you developed anti-bodies to this, it may cause infertility. Instead of the medical community responding with concern and the charge to look into this, the reaction from the 3-Letter organizations was that this was non-sensical. And they CLAIM that this was not possible because “while syncytin-1 and the spike protein broadly share some features, they are quite different in the details that antibodies recognize. ” Once again, these are just “claims” and never once backed up by any data. And in fact, we are seeing more and more evidence that these vaccines are disrupting the human reproductive systems.

Why do the lymph node swell after COVID 19? Could it be that the vaccine-synthesized spike proteins have migrated into these regions and your immune system is attacking it because of the antigen presenting “healthy” cells that the spike proteins have latched on to? How long will this inflammation last?
https://pubs.rsna.org/doi/10.1148/radiol.2021210275
What happens when these spike proteins are subjected to massive amounts of radiation such as one would experience during a mammogram? What happens when our lymph nodes are inflamed from these vaccine and is then irradiated via CT, MRI or Mammogram scans?
Once again, no one knows. And everyone acts as if this is nothing new and should carry-on as usual.

And a new review came out this week in the International Journal of Vaccine Theory, Practice, and Research, further lending credence to Dr. Bart Classen’s Prion disease hypothesis:

The data regarding the effects of these modern “pharmakeia” is slowly being played out in all of humanity. May we continue to pray for guidance of the Holy Spirit. “Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding”. What we are seeing in the natural, we can only see so far into the future. Without any actual data on the effects of these new gene-manipulating medicines-be they short or long term, we are all stabbing in the dark with what we think we know.
I’m going to be working with vaccinated people when my employer re-opens the office. I would like to understand how the spike proteins that are shed are passed to another person. Is there any information on this?
Hi expat girl. Doesn’t vascular disease disrupt the distribution of oxygen to every cell of your body also. Another very dangerous situation. I heard 5G also messed with oxygenation in the body.
People are shedding or distributing the spike protein from the shot out of their bodies. Do you know how long the spike proteins and Nano particles can live outside of the body once they are shed? How long can they live in the air or on a surface? Is there any info on this. thanks, Linda
Hi Linda – Here is more information on vascular disease – https://vascularcures.org/what-is-vascular-disease/
I do not know the answers to your two questions. The situation is fluid and evolving. I am hopeful we may find answers to these questions in the coming few months…..
Thanks!
Here’s the latest possible cure for protection against the spike protein as discussed by Mike Adams.

Good information. We have a few pine trees in our area, but we’re not sure 🤔 if they’re SAFE to use as tea?
You had announced that you’d be focusing more on how we should maintain our health. So grateful that you’re still providing the z3News readers with additional knowledge and information. This “Covid” situation appears to be getting even more dangerous to those who have wisely chosen NOT to be nasal swabbed or injected 💉
One of my relatives stated that they WOULD NOT be nasal swabbed or injected; but would wear a HAZMAT SUIT for protection against the “shedding spike protein” when out in public! 🦠🤔😷👍
Thank you so much for keeping us all well informed.
