#3 Gates-Funded Drones Allow Mass Vaccination in Lower-Income Nations - Tracy Beanz and Michelle Edwards for The HighWire, UncoverDC, Main Street, Lindsay Penney, Concerned Citizen, and Wall Street Bulls on X
Gavi, the Vaccine Alliance—a public-private deep state alliance that recently received a $1.6 billion pledge from the Gates Foundation—states on its website that in other countries, the pentavalent vaccine (PV) is vital to the survival of children under age five. For those unaware, the pentavalent vaccine is a five-in-one combination vaccine that, in this case, is assumed to protect children from diphtheria, tetanus, pertussis, Haemophilus influenzae Type B, and Hepatitis B. Thanks to drone-borne vaccine delivery, vaccine rates have risen, and pentavalent vaccine coverage in 57 Gavi-supported nations increased from 0% in 2000 to 81% in 2022. The mass vaccination of young children with pentavalent occurred despite a peer-reviewed study demonstrating that the death rate with the pentavalent vaccine was double that of the previously given DPT vaccine (Diphtheria-Pertussis-Tetanus). Sound familiar?
