A Tale of Vax Injury; The Conspiracy of Silence By Mrs Vera West
Here is yet another sad story of a talented person, a musician, getting vaxxed, and injured. What is interesting is that this young man is not anti-vax, but does believe that he has been unlucky in getting a rare side effect and not being able to use his hands and feet for a time. As well, note that the doctors he consulted refused to believe that it was the vax which did this. The doctors are under the guillotine of de-registration, but even without that, most are true believers in the god-like status of Big Pharma. Covid vax injuries would not doubt be proportionally as high as in America, with the same under-reporting factor of 41 to 100.
“An award-winning Australian musician who was left partially paralysed claims he was told privately by five different doctors that it was almost certainly a reaction to the Moderna vaccine but they would not put it in writing out of fear of being deregistered.
Tyson Illingworth, aka tyDi, who shot to fame at age 17 after being signed by Armin van Buuren’s Armada label, says he is still in constant pain and taking daily medications and injections, more than six months after being hospitalised and going through rehab to “learn to use my hands and feet again”.
The 35-year-old was forced to take six months off touring and says his “life was torn apart emotionally”, both by his injury and the alleged refusal of doctors to officially acknowledge what they told him in private.
“I was in hospital for quite some time doing rehab, learning to use my hands and feet again, walking between traffic cones,” he told news.com.au.
“I understand rare side effects might happen – I was unlucky. But why have five different doctors all said to me, ‘I know what this is, it’s a vaccine reaction, there’s no other explanation, but I can’t say anything because I’ll get deregistered’?”
The body overseeing Australia’s 800,000 registered practitioners and 193,800 students last year warned that anyone who sought to “undermine” the national Covid vaccine rollout could face deregistration or even prosecution.
The Australian Health Practitioner Regulation Agency (AHPRA) told news.com.au it was dealing with a “number” of cases and that a “handful” of doctors had been suspended or slapped with conditions because “the alleged behaviour of a practitioner poses a serious risk to the public”.
Illingworth, a graduate of Griffith University’s prestigious Queensland Conservatorium, who has worked with major clients including Disney on Ice, says he is risking his reputation by speaking out about his “frustrating” experience.
“I have been so pro-science and pro-vaccine and so outspoken [about getting vaccinated] prior to this happening to me,” he said.
“I still think people should have the vaccine, I just think we should be able to have a damn conversation about it. The only way to get to the truth is through civil discourse. What world are we in when doctors are no longer able to fulfil their oath? If doctors can’t have a conversation about it, all they can do is prescribe a Band-Aid that might be more dangerous as opposed to getting to the bottom of the real problem.”
Illingworth received his first Moderna vaccine at the start of this year.
A few weeks later he began to experience “extreme neurological pain” and red marks like veins or stretch marks appeared on his sides.
His motor skills “rapidly decreased” and he started to lose feeling in his hands and feet, before waking up partially paralysed.
“I couldn’t move my legs, couldn’t move my hands, which is terrifying for someone who uses their hands for a job,” he said. “I couldn’t even write my name down.”
He was taken to hospital where doctors quizzed him about his drug use. Illingworth told them he didn’t take drugs but admitted to using nitrous oxide when he was younger – which they then listed as the cause.
Doctors discharged him with “neuropathy due to past drug use” and told him it was “OK for me to take another Moderna shot”.
Neuropathy is not a recognised side-effect of Moderna.
Heavy or frequent use of nitrous oxide can cause neurological damage leading to peripheral neuropathy, but Illingworth says the “timelines don’t match up”.
“I got the second and sure enough, everything came back but worse,” he said.
Illingworth was hospitalised twice more and was discharged both times with no answers. He then saw “doctor after doctor to try and find out what’s happening”, and says he was told it was “not a coincidence that the timing lines up exactly”.
“They won’t write it down,” he said.
“I felt played by the system. Doctors take an oath to help their patients, but if they’re afraid of deregistration like this how can they do their job? How can I get help? My life won’t ever be the same. Doctors couldn’t give me an answer – will this last forever? They said they don’t know.”
Illingworth says he is grateful to have his movement back but has “permanent scars” on his sides, and still takes strong painkillers. He also has “moments where my vision goes extremely blurry”.
“I have extreme pain in the morning – waking up is the worst,” he said.
“It’s like being electrocuted – it starts at the brain and goes down to my fingers and feet, down my spine. I’d never felt it in my life before. They call it neuropathic pain.”
Illingworth stressed he was “not anti-vax”.
“I caught Covid after this – maybe I could have died, who knows, maybe the vaccine did its job,” he said.
“My concern is I can’t sit and talk to you and say these are the facts, because the doctors can’t give me the facts because they’ve admitted they will lose their licence.”
He added, “I can’t say 100 per cent for sure [it was the vaccine] – I don’t think any scientist would ever be 100 per cent. But I went from being able to swim laps in the pool to no longer able to do it. The only variable between that happening and me being normal was taking the vaccine.”
According to the Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA), there have been 6722 adverse event reports from about 4.6 million doses of Moderna as of June 26.
The TGA’s Database of Adverse Event Notifications lists the most common reported side effects as chest pain, followed by headache and injection site reaction.
“Like all medicines, Covid-19 vaccines may cause some side effects,” the TGA says.”
