The David Declaration Takes on the Goliath of Big Pharma, By Brian Simpson

The article titled "The David Declaration Calls for a Moratorium on COVID-19 Vaccines," published on February 24, 2025, on the Substack platform Courageous Truth by Dr. David J. Speicher,

is a call to action rooted in the author's concerns about mRNA-based Covid-19 vaccines. Speicher, a molecular virologist and epidemiologist with over 20 years of experience in infectious disease diagnostics, leverages his scientific background to argue for a reassessment of these vaccines based on emerging evidence of contamination and potential harm.

The article introduces "The David Declaration," a document co-authored by Speicher and named after his personal stand against what he sees as scientific overreach—drawing a Biblical parallel to David facing Goliath. Its stated goal is threefold:

1.Demand a return to evidence-based medical science, emphasizing rigorous, transparent research over what Speicher calls "dogma."

2.Call for a moratorium on mRNA technology in vaccines until safety concerns, particularly around DNA contamination, are thoroughly investigated.

3.Advocate for recognition and support for the vaccine-injured, a group he believes has been neglected by public health authorities.

The declaration is framed as a public petition, open for signatures from scientists, medical professionals, and citizens globally, with a link provided for endorsement.

Speicher's central argument hinges on his research into DNA contamination in mRNA vaccines (Pfizer and Moderna). He asserts that these vaccines contain "excessive levels of DNA fragments," including the SV40 promoter/enhancer sequence, which he claims could integrate into human DNA and pose risks like oncogenesis (cancer development) or immune disruption. His work builds on a September 2024 peer-reviewed study he co-authored in Proteomics, Genomics and Clinical Applications, which found DNA levels exceeding regulatory limits—sometimes by orders of magnitude—in Australian vaccine vials. He cites:

Independent replication: Labs in the U.S., Canada, Germany, and elsewhere have allegedly confirmed his findings.

Regulatory thresholds: The Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA) in Australia sets a limit of 10 nanograms of DNA per dose, yet Speicher claims his tests show levels far higher, a point he says regulators have dismissed without sufficient counter-evidence.

Historical precedent: He references the SV40 contamination in polio vaccines from the 1950s-60s, linked to rare cancers decades later, as a cautionary tale.

Speicher argues that this contamination, combined with the novel lipid nanoparticle (LNP) delivery system, could lead to unintended genetic effects, a hypothesis he admits requires further study but insists justifies halting mRNA vaccine use pending investigation.

The article sharply criticises public health bodies like the TGA, FDA, and Health Canada, accusing them of ignoring evidence and prioritising narrative over science. Speicher recounts personal experiences:

After presenting his findings to the TGA in October 2024, he claims they rejected his data without testing vials themselves, citing "batch variability" as an excuse.

He alleges a broader pattern of suppression, pointing to his own ostracism from academic circles and the silencing of dissenting scientists during the pandemic.

This fuels his broader narrative: that trust in institutions has eroded due to their handling of Covid-19 vaccine safety concerns.

The David Declaration, as outlined, is both a scientific and ethical manifesto. It calls for:

Immediate suspension of mRNA vaccines until independent, transparent studies assess DNA contamination and long-term risks.

Full disclosure of vaccine composition and adverse event data by manufacturers and regulators.

Support systems for those harmed by vaccines, including medical care and compensation, acknowledging their "lived experience."

Speicher positions this as a grassroots movement, urging signatories to amplify the message and pressure policymakers. "The David Declaration" is a rallying cry from a scientist turned dissenter, blending data, personal conviction, and a plea for accountability. It's less a detailed scientific treatise and more a launchpad for a movement, aiming to shift the conversation around mRNA vaccines.

Let's all sign it!
