I found some transcript errors in a Full Measure video by Sharyl Atkisson from early April, mainly covering the FLCCC Winter 2024 conference.[1]
NOTE: The interview contains several criticized unsupported claims about vaccine adverse effects.
The video features an interview with a mortician in what appears to be his workplace, and includes close-up shots of jars of bodily tissue, with them being referred to as “fibers” that the undertaker claims are clot-like substances being found in vaccinated corpses. In the video it’s claimed that many embalmers started seeing this in corpses, they repeatedly say, “after the pandemic started and the vaccines hit the market” — seemingly coinciding those things temporally even though they’re a year apart and that difference might be relevant to the possible causes. The mortician interviewed twice claims blood itself has changed somehow, which might unfortunately evoke the conspiracy theory about vaccines changing people’s DNA — something that’s absolutely not true.[2] And actually this “fiber clots” story is actually a couple years old already and was already reported to be unsupported by evidence anyway.[3] In one part of the video the embalmer says, “Some people think that what I have done is unethical. that I should not share the stuff that I see in this embalming room.” and “this embalming room” is transcribed as “this environment” — which is at least plausible as a misheard auto-transcript or a human transcriptionist not paying close attention to the subject matter.
In another part of the video the omission seems to make less sense. The transcript is really offset from the video, lagging behind, and when I looked at it I noticed that it had omitted a part of what was said. In the video the voiceover says: “According to a national institute of health study, up to 25% of adults are stricken with long covid six months after infection. Which could also be long vax if they were vaccinated. Symptoms include retina detachment, atrial defibrillation, and other art problems, blood issues, weakness, nerve pain, and more.” But yet this is what the transcript posted on Youtube is missing the sentence about “long vax”.
This assertion in the audio is misrepresenting the NIH study which did NOT say that long covid “could be long vax if vaccinated”. The NIH study wasn’t about vaccines, long covid and complications from covid are far more common than any vaccination adverse effects, and just being vaccinated isn’t an indicator of anything. Even the articles about this claimed vaccine adverse effect say it’s rare and similar symptoms are far more common after a covid infection itself.[4]
Also during the interview with Jordan Vaughn and Pierre Kory at the FLCCC conference, part of Kory’s interview had a poorly edited transcript that was offset from the video.
For comparison, this is what Pierre Kory says in the video:
“The vaccine syndrome is a chronic illness. The vaccines we know can cause a lot of acute issues, so heart attacks, myocarditis, strokes, anaphylaxis, various rashes, things like that. But what Jordan and I specialize in is what we call long vax. same thing as long covid, only real difference is long vax is on average sicker than long covid. I also will say that long vax is far more prevalent. So in my practice where we’ve evaluated over 1200 patients, 70% were long vax. It was triggered by the vaccine. Temporally associated.”
This is what the transcript is reporting said in the video:
“The vaccine syndrome is a chronic illness. The vaccines we know can cause acute issues, myocarditis, strokes, anaphylaxis, various rashes, things like that. What we specialize in is what we call long vax, same thing as long covid, but on average, long vax makes people more sick and long covid. I would also say that long vax is far more prevalent. We have evaluated 1200 patients, several were long vax. Triggered by the vaccines.”
Kory inappropriately claimed that covid vaccines cause heart attacks, but that was left out of the transcript. He also says of 1200 patients he’s evaluated at his practice, “70% were long vax” — but in the transcript it says “several were long vax” instead. The transcript also leaves out the part where Kory qualifies his claim that it was “triggered by the vaccine” with adding “temporally associated”.
I would say I’m surprised this video remains up on Youtube at all, but Google also has been known for profiting from climate denial.[5]

[2] Australian Government — Department of Health and Aged Care — Is it true? Can COVID-19 vaccines alter my DNA? No, COVID-19 vaccines do not alter your DNA. Updated 8 May 2023 Some COVID-19 vaccine use a fragment of messenger RNA (mRNA) to instruct your body to make an immune response against COVID-19. There is a crucial difference between mRNA and DNA. DNA, which makes up our genetic code, is larger, double stranded and very long. The mRNA is a single stranded copy of a small part of the DNA, which is often released to send instructions to other parts of the cell. DNA is stored in the protected centre of our cells — the nucleus. The mRNA is broken down quickly by the body. It never enters the nucleus, and cannot affect or combine with our DNA in any way to change our genetic code.
[3] Health Feedback — Mike Adams’ flawed analysis of a clot sent by embalmer Richard Hirschman doesn’t demonstrate any link between blood clots and COVID-19 vaccines Published on: 12 Sep 2022 | Editor: Iria Carballo-Carbajal Hirschman told the Epoch Times that 50 to 70% of the bodies he saw had white, long, fibrous “structures” that he had never seen before, which he “suspected” were caused by COVID-19 vaccines. However, there is no evidence other than Hirschman’s assertions to support such an association. Furthermore, the vaccination status “isn’t on the death certificate”, as Hari P. Close, national president of the National Funeral Directors & Morticians Association, explained to PolitiFact. Therefore, Hirschman’s observations alone don’t demonstrate that such clots appear predominantly in vaccinated people. Irene Sansano, an anatomical pathology specialist at the Vall d’Hebron University Hospital in Barcelona, Spain, said in an email to Health Feedback that the clots found by Hirschman “don’t look different” from the ones they regularly find in blood clot autopsies at the hospital. She also explained that thromboembolisms (circulating blood clots) are frequent among deceased people and are mainly caused by “obesity, sedentarism, smoking, and now COVID-19”.
[4] SCIENCE — Rare link between coronavirus vaccines and Long Covid–like illness starts to gain acceptance — Studies probe unusual cases of neurologic complications, blood pressure swings, and other side effects — 3 Jul 20234:30 PM ET By Gretchen Vogel, Jennifer Couzin-Frankel Researchers led by cardiologists Alan Kwan and Susan Cheng at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center analyzed a health database of almost 285,000 people in the Los Angeles area; all had received at least one COVID-19 shot. They found that within 90 days after a shot, the rate of POTS-related symptoms was about 33% higher than in the 3 months before; 2581 people were diagnosed with POTS-related symptoms after vaccination, compared with 1945 beforehand. However, the study found a bigger effect from COVID-19 itself: The rate of POTS symptoms in about 12,000 unvaccinated people after infection was 52% higher than beforehand. Although Kwan cautions against extrapolating these numbers to a wider population, he says the pattern is intriguing. “Our data show a relatively clear signal that there probably is an increase in POTS after vaccination and after infection,” he says.

Google allowed Daily Wire to run ads on searches for “climate change is a hoax”. YouTube videos promoting climate denial with millions of views still have ads.
