Via anecdotal data and reports, we've been aware for years that the COVID-19 vaccines were causing serious harm to many of those who took them. It's been said that they're responsible for many deaths, possibly more than the disease itself, and fringe commenters have even alleged that they were a deliberate attempt to reduce the world's population. Politicians and the mainstream media have debunked such talk, but they've never actually addressed the existing data head-on and examined it impartially.
Two recent reports from the UK and Japan, may signal the breaking of the ice over that. First, in Japan, a former cabinet minister has publicly apologized for the damage caused by the vaccines. I've not seen any reference to his speech in mainstream US news media, but fringe media and foreign reports like this one from Thailand have been less reticent.
A high-profile Japanese government official has issued a public apology to his people over the mass deaths and vaccine injuries caused by Covid mRNA shots.
The apology was made by Kazuhiro Haraguchi, a former Minister for Internal Affairs and Communications in Japan who currently serves as a member of the House of Representatives.
Haraguchi made a heartfelt statement during a speech at a major protest against the World Health Organization (WHO) on Friday.
"I apologize to all of you," Haraguchi told the massive crowd.
"So many have died, and they shouldn't have."
. . .
Elsewhere in the speech, he also apologized for the suppression of alternative Covid treatments such as ivermectin.
He revealed that ivermectin was blocked from use because it was cheap and would "interfere with the sales of the vaccines".

In another report, British newspaper The Telegraph reports that Netherlands scientists have found that the COVID-19 vaccines may be responsible for at least part of the explosion in "excess deaths" in recent years.
Covid vaccines could be partly to blame for the rise in excess deaths since the pandemic, scientists have suggested.
Researchers from The Netherlands analysed data from 47 Western countries and discovered there had been more than three million excess deaths since 2020, with the trend continuing despite the rollout of vaccines and containment measures.
They said the “unprecedented” figures “raised serious concerns” and called on governments to fully investigate the underlying causes, including possible vaccine harms.
Writing in the BMJ Public Health, the authors from Vrije Universiteit, Amsterdam, said: “Although Covid-19 vaccines were provided to guard civilians from suffering morbidity and mortality by the Covid-19 virus, suspected adverse events have been documented as well.
“Both medical professionals and citizens have reported serious injuries and deaths following vaccination to various official databases in the Western World.”
. . .
The study found that across Europe, the US and Australia there had been more than one million excess deaths in 2020, at the height of the pandemic, but also 1.2 million in 2021 and 800,000 and 2022 after measures were implemented.
Researchers said the figure included deaths from Covid-19, but also the “indirect effects of the health strategies to address the virus spread and infection”.
They warned that side effects linked to the Covid vaccine had included ischaemic stroke, acute coronary syndrome and brain haemorrhage, cardiovascular diseases, coagulation, haemorrhages, gastrointestinal events and blood clotting.
German researchers have pointed out that the onset of excess mortality in early 2021 in the country coincided with the rollout of vaccines, which the team said “warranted further investigation”.

For those who've been skeptical about official sources' attempts to "whitewash" the issue, this is nothing new: but to see reports from such sources is an eye-opener. Is the official "wall of silence" crumbling? Will we see more and more authoritative sources acknowledging what's been obvious to any informed observer for years now? I won't hold my breath waiting, but these are at least encouraging developments.
Meanwhile, given that background, with alarmist threats of new health dangers such as bird flu (H5N1) "migrating" to the human population, I'll continue to watch all such official pronouncements with skepticism, and investigate alternative therapies to any recommended by the establishment. After all, if they lied to us for so long about COVID-19, why should we believe that they're not doing it again?
