My friends, several days ago I made a post which included statistics from the VAERS — Vaccine Adverse Events Reporting System — on the U.S. government’s Health and Human Services website. You can find my previous post here:
https://www.billkochman.com/Blog/index.php/covid-19-at-least-7000-american-deaths-have-occurred-after-receiving-the-covid-19-vaccines-according-to-vaers/
Likewise, you can access the U.S. government’s VAERS reporting system — which is managed by the CDC and the FDA — at the following URL:
https://vaers.hhs.gov/index.html
The aforementioned statistics reveal that as of July 30, 2021, more than 12,300 American citizens have died after taking one of the three FDA emergency-approved COVID-19 vaccines.
Note: Please read the VAERS site’s disclaimer to understand their interpretation regarding how statistics should be understood. You may or may not agree with them.
Please note that originally, after conducting a VAERS search of my own, I personally came up with a figure of almost 7,000 deaths. However, apparently, I was conducting the search incorrectly. As such, my total for the Pfizer/BioNTech vaccine was about 5,000 lower than it should have been. Setting the search criteria is a bit complicated, after all.
By the way, if you wish to conduct your own search, you can do so using the VAERS “WONDER” tool at the following URL:
https://wonder.cdc.gov/vaers.html
Furthermore, as of that same date — July 30, 2021 — over 545,000 adverse events had been recorded in the VAERS system, after taking vaccines. Stated another way, we are talking about more than 545,000 NEGATIVE REACTIONS occurring after taking vaccines — some more serious than others — and that includes only the ones which have actually been reported to VAERS. Some people strongly suspect that the numbers are probably a lot higher than that.
But, my friends, think about that figure — 12,300+ deaths. That figure is more than four times the number of people who died as a direct result of the horrific events which occurred on September 11, 2001.
So why isn’t the U.S. government constantly throwing the 12,300+ figure in our faces? I will tell you why. Because unlike the almost 3,000 people who died during 9/11, the 12,300+ figure has no positive political capital.
In other words, that almost 3,000 total deaths figure from 9/11 gave the government power to psychologically manipulate the American public, so that they would not only support the so-called “war against terrorism” for two decades, but the 9/11 death toll also convinced American citizens to “temporarily” surrender some of their personal freedoms via the “Patriot Act”.
But that is not all. The 9/11 death toll was also used to convince many Americans to support the ill-conceived and illegal invasion of, and war in, Iraq, which was primarily based on the WMD lie. I discuss this topic at length in some of my articles on the Bill’s Bible Basics website at:
https://www.billkochman.com
Lastly, it is in large part because of the 9/11 death toll figure constantly being thrown in our faces — what do you think the “Remember 9/11” mantra is all about? — that America has engaged in the obviously unwinnable and futile war in Afghanistan for so many years, as recent news reports regarding Taliban military victories have clearly revealed. The Russians learned their lesson. What about us?
In contrast to the 9/11 death toll figure, the VAERS vaccine death toll figure — even though it is at least four times greater — doesn’t give the government power to manipulate people in the direction that it wants to take them. That is, to convince everyone to get the vaccine.
Quite to the contrary, that 12,300+ figure is NEGATIVE political capital, because it clearly shouts out FAILURE and DANGER. It is an alarm call to people to BEWARE, because something is not right, and that something is in fact seriously WRONG!
Thus, the government, and some of its agencies, and certain medical and pharmaceutical entities try to minimize the figure, to de-emphasize its importance, and to play it down. You certainly don’t see the liberal mainstream media screaming headlines regarding 12,300+ people dying after taking the COVID-19 vaccines, do you? That says a lot!
It is as if to say that the almost 3,000 people who died during 9/11 was a big deal — and they certainly ran with it as far and as long as they possibly could — while these 12,300+ people who have died after taking one of the COVID-19 vaccines, and the hundreds of thousands more who have suffered other non-lethal negative effects from the vaccines, are not as important!
Think about that, my friends. And remember. Even as I type out this commentary, those figures continue to climb by the day, as the COVID-19 vaccines continue to negatively affect more and more people.
Yes, according to the American government and its medical/health agencies, many millions of American citizens are being spared from the worst effects of COVID-19 — including from death — due to taking one of the vaccines.
However, that does NOT mean that we should simply ignore, play down, or hide the fact that for many people, taking the vaccine may be just as risky as actually getting COVID-19, because either way, they could possibly end up DEAD, or at least just as sick as if they actually had COVID-19!
In fact, if the stories are true, I have read accounts in recent days where it has been said that some people are actually getting COVID-19 as a direct result of getting one of the vaccines!
Folks, we already know — because even the U.S. government has confirmed it — that the current vaccines do NOT prevent a person from getting COVID-19. Neither to they prevent a vaccinated person from passing COVID-19 on to someone else.
So, if these vaccines are actually giving some people COVID-19 as certain accounts state, then that is just the icing on the cake, and it further highlights the inefficacy, and the danger, of these vaccines. Are these vaccines possibly doing more harm than good despite government claims?
Returning to my previous point, my friends, for some people, it may be a light thing to say “Well, what is 13,000 people lost compared to millions of people who are saved from COVID-19’s death grip due to the vaccines?”
Yes, that may be easy to say for some people. But what if those 13,000 deaths included members of your own family? Would you still feel the same way? I bet you wouldn’t. Tell me something. What if 13,000 people suddenly died in your town or city after taking one of the vaccines? Would you still just sit quietly by?
As I have stated in previous posts, in the end, it is YOUR body. As such, in my view, it is also YOUR right, and ONLY your right, to decide whether or not you wish to take the vaccine. Don’t you agree?
In quite an opposite manner, isn’t this the very same argument that is made by pro-abortionists? So why shouldn’t it apply to the COVID-19 vaccine situation as well?
In effect then, isn’t the government and their supporters practicing a double standard when they say that women have the right to choose whether or not to get an abortion, while they deny us the right to accept or reject having a questionable vaccine injected into our bodies? At the very least, it is hypocritical.
Given the known serious risks which have now been clearly associated with these vaccines — as even the government’s VAERS website clearly reveals — my personal position is that neither the U.S. government, nor any other entity — federal, state or local — has the legal right to force anyone through mandates to take any of the available COVID-19 vaccines. After all, to do so is to knowingly be condemning certain individuals to death, no matter how small the number.
My friends, we are people, and NOT guinea pigs. Yet, whether you realize it or not, that is exactly what we become when we accept vaccines which have not been adequately tested over the long term, or fully approved yet. We BECOME the experiment!
In fact, even when the vaccines are approved by the FDA, given the FDA’s record and known internal corruption and bias, I STILL won’t trust the vaccines!
As for me personally, as I have mentioned before, due to my own health situation — among which is the fact that I take a daily dose of an anticoagulant (blood thinner) to prevent the re-occurrence of DVT or Deep Vein Thrombosis, which is blood clots in my legs, and the re-occurrence of Acute Bilateral Pulmonary Emboli, which is blood clots in all nodes of my lungs — I will continue to resist getting the vaccine.
On a side note, it may interest some of you to know that while I am currently in my late 60s, due to my personal philosophy and beliefs regarding my body and medications, I have not had a single vaccine since I was a kid in elementary school, when my parents last had jurisdiction over my body for such things. No, I do not get an annual flu shot or anything else for that matter.
Concerning my own health issues, as the VAERS website reveals, on some occasions, the vaccines do result in different types of thrombosis occurring. No matter how small, the risk IS there. Does it make any sense then that I should take a daily dose of an anticoagulant to prevent thrombosis from occurring, only to then turn around and take a vaccine which could quite possibly result in thrombosis? To do so, in my view, would be pure madness.
Even though I am considered high risk for getting COVID-19, I have thus far endured 17 months of this pandemic without incident, and without a vaccine. As such, I will continue to trust God for my health and safety.
Furthermore, as much as I dislike wearing a hot, restrictive face mask, out of respect for others, and because masks are still mandated here — indoors and outdoors — when I am out and about, I will continue to wear a face mask, and social distance as well. However, I will NOT be vaccinated!
In conclusion, we each have our personal reasons regarding why we don’t wish to take the COVID-19 vaccines. Your reasons may be different from mine, but that is not what matters here. What does matter, is that we are NOT denied the ability to make the choice on our own, through governmental bullying via draconian mandates, or through public shaming, ostracism and ridicule.

Where is My Facebook Comment?
https://www.billkochman.com/Blog/where-is-my-facebook-comment/
Sometimes, after making a comment under one of my graphics on Facebook, people become a little confused, offended, or even angry, and they will say something like “Where is my comment? I can’t find it. Why did you delete it?” However, what some of you need to be made aware of, is that things are not always what they seem. Allow me to explain.
First of all, I very rarely ever delete comments from my Facebook friends. If and when I do that, it is usually because a person has been or becomes very disrespectful, combative, argumentative, or because they have posted something which I strongly feel is contrary to the Scriptures. If they persist in their negative activity, I will warn them a few times. But if that doesn’t work, then I will either unfriend them so that they can no longer comment on my posts, or else I will block them altogether, if the situation merits it.
The bottom line — and this applies to every single person who owns a timeline, page or group on Facebook — is my page, my rules. If you can’t respect the rules which I have established and adhere to them, then please just don’t comment, or leave, unfriend me, or do whatever you feel you need to do.
Having said that, as I have been explaining for a number of months now, there are times when your comments will indeed disappear. However, it is NOT because I removed them. Here are the facts. Since October of 2019, I have been repeatedly harassed by Facebook. I have been forced logged off, locked out of my account, forced to upload my personal ID, forced to change my password, and forced to jump through Facebook’s security hoops literally dozens of times, to the point of being absolutely ridiculous.
But something else that Facebook has been doing a lot of in recent months, is actually removing my posts from their platform. I am talking about many dozens of my posts being deleted because they supposedly go against Facebook’s “Community Standards”. Actually, a better name would be Facebook’s “Liberal Community Standards”. I know that many of you fully understand what I mean by that.
But the point is, when Facebook removes my posts, that means that all shared posts — meaning my posts which you share on your own timeline or page — all likes, and all comments likewise disappear. They are gone, as if they had never existed. So that is one big reason why you may not be able to find your comment.
There is another reason why people become confused, and think that their comment has been deleted. It has to do with the fact that I make the same posts on my timeline, on my page, and in the BBB group. In other words, in three different places on Facebook. Of course, if you are commenting on one of my posts while you are in your news feed, you may not realize exactly where your comment is being posted.
It is for this reason that if you visit my timeline, page or the BBB group directly, you will notice in the cover image that it says “You are here:”. This will be followed by “BBB Timeline”, “BBB Page” or “BBB Group”. That is obviously so that you know exactly which one of the three you are visiting.
So what does all of that mean? It means that when you comment on one of my posts in your news feed, you need to look carefully, and note exactly where you are posting. Stated another way, if you make a comment under one of my images which is on my timeline, and then later visit the BBB group and see the same image, you are NOT going to see your comment there. Why? Because you did NOT post your comment under the image that is in the BBB group. You posted it under the image that is on my timeline.
So you see, if you do not understand how Facebook works, then you will erroneously be led to believe that I have deleted your comment, when such is not the case at all. You are simply looking for your comment in the wrong place.
There is yet another reason regarding why you may not be able to find your comment. If a person is the first individual to write a comment under one of my status updates, and if you — or anyone else for that matter — comes along later and replies to their comment, if for some reason the first commenter decides to delete their comment, then all replies to their comment will be deleted as well. Again, that is just the way that Facebook works. Perhaps they do it to avoid confusion. But whatever their reasons, I have no control over it.
Now do you get it? Great! Now carry on! 🙂
