and that is completely irrelevant. What does the location of the server on which data is contained have to do with the veracity of the data?
This is the biggest load of hogwash I have ever heard, and it is an argument that makes me want to immediately go somewhere else. The very idea that information cannot be true unless some faceless government agency or university funds the study is the very antithesis of science.
Two points here: just because something is not found, it does not mean that something does not exist
Yes, there is. That is an out-and-out lie. The paper specifies what research was conducted and on whom under what conditions, quite clearly.
The fact that a paper contains information that has appeared before is about as far from a condemnation of the the stated information as one can get.
That's why no one pays you any attention.

An issue that I keep seeing more and more is there's now a lot of very dubious "journals" that are popping up and publishing "peer reviewed studies and articles.
I'm pretty sure that you and me could spend an afternoon and about 30 quid and set up something that had all of the qualifications to look like and claim to be a peer reviewed journal.
Before the internet explosion these were all published in hard copy but now anyone can do it for almost no time or money.
Real scientists know what's what but us ordinary folk don't have the experience to spot a shifty one at 600 yards.

Thanks. I’m no scientist. But I am a Natural Historian by nature and Synchronist by schooling.

No, not bombastic at all! Solid truth well stated.
You wouldn't go to a dentist to have the transmission on your truck fixed, and you wouldn't go to an auto dealership to have a retainer fitted.
When it comes to science some things can be very compartmentalized, so being an expert in one field doesn't necessarily make you an authority in another.
Though it could give you enough knowledge of the type of language to use to sound authoritative to people who don't understand the topic enough to know better.
If the data were genuine why would it need to use subterfuge?
The people who made the claims do not have a demonstratable track record in this area of study. Yet managed to find things that people who do have a track record in this area couldn't?
Lack of reputation speaks to lack of credibility.
Most of it was about the techniques used, not the research conducted, the rest was gibberish.
Reposting already debunked conspiracies doesn't make it any less a conspiracy or any less debunked.
You did, and you sound mighty angry about it.
You were taken in by a slick looking hoax created by someone who took advantage of you not having a scientific background

Regardless of what is in the shots or what appears to be “graphene-oxidesque”, 94% of samples with blood abnormalities should raise some eyebrows as to what it is they say they’ve discovered in this paper.
In other words, if this is even remotely true it reveals we are in deep sh!t. If we don’t find a countermeasure for those that have taken this, soon, your surmising about capillaries being congested and clogged sounds like a ticking bomb. For some it’s too late already.
Strange they aren’t reporting the young athletes dying the way they were initially….
I suspect really dark times ahead.

They're known as predatory publishers and have a tendency to use slight spelling variations of legitimate scientific journals; but the peers are homeopaths, chiropractors, accupuncturists and other bat# mental stuff that violates basic scientific laws.
I've been trying to explain the obvious warning signs to the OP and others for the last few years but for some reason it just gets ignored.

Would the fact that one of the authors of the paper is a dentist and another is an acupuncturist explain the issues you see in the paper?
No.
Some people really need to overcome this cult of personality that seems to be overtaking the scientific world.

Lack of reputation speaks to lack of credibility. If it did exist it should be labeled on the paper. That's standard procedure.
Yes, there is. That is an out-and-out lie. The paper specifies what research was conducted and on whom under what conditions, quite clearly.

The people behind this site have a history of vaccine related hoaxing, especially in regards to claims that vaccines cause autism. Doesn't this make you question their motives even a little?

Absolutely...
if you "listen between the lines" in most of these papers, you will see a subtle attempt to warn people away.
They all start off glowingly talking about how many lives have been saved by the vaxx, and typically in their conclusions or discussion, the state that we should move forward with an abundance of caution. They can't come out and say that "This # will kill you" or they'd be censored, cancelled, and run out of business.
This paper is putting forth the proposition that the spike protein in the vaxx is just as dangerous for many as the spike protein in the original virus when it comes to neurological issues, and that it may contribute to Parkinson's disease.

7. Discussion
Few would have thought, when the COVID-19 pandemic was declared in early 2020 and labeled as a respiratory illness, that discussion would progress to the question of serious neurological consequences. We have already recognized the need to closely monitor and screen for α-synuclein prions in patients who have experienced neurological complications, but what about people who have been vaccinated? Over this past year, there have been several publications indicating that the neurological side effects of the COVID-19 vaccines are extremely rare. This is true for the more serious adverse events as stated by the authors, considering the number of actual doses administered [30,31,32,33]. However, that does not detract from the fact that these individuals need to be followed up. In addition, it is worth noting that according to the label [34] of the recently FDA-approved COVID-19 vaccine “COMIRNATY”, submitted by BioNTech Manufacturing GmbH (in partnership with Pfizer Inc.), the occurrence of acute neurological symptoms (i.e., fatigue and/or headaches), although not considered to be serious, were high, especially in the younger age group (16 through to 55 years of age). Such neurological symptoms, especially if prolonged, could well be indicative of inflammation, which can act as the trigger giving rise to synucleinopathies such as Parkinson’s disease up to two to three decades post-immunization [21]. Therefore, individuals who have experienced adverse neurological effects after being administered a COVID-19 vaccine should also be followed up.
Of interest is the mode of action of the COVID-19 vaccines currently used, where the end product is the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein, the intended target being the antigen-presenting cells of the immune system. However, there are indications that the spike protein generated by these vaccines may have off-target effects [17,34,35,36]. There is no evidence that distribution and/or toxicokinetic studies of the spike protein were performed [34,37]. With this in mind, it would be prudent to follow up subjects who experience neurological side effects as a result of the COVID-19 vaccines, in addition to the hospitalized patients with COVID-19 who had neurological complications. With the COVID-19 vaccines, an assumption was made that the spike protein produced in the host cells would not be shed into the systemic circulation. Hence, additional data are required to determine the toxicity and distribution of the spike protein, which is already known to cause disease. Perhaps a standard 28-day study with good laboratory practice could be initiated that not only mimics the concentration that enters the plasma post-vaccination [24] but also exceeds it, in order to provide a good safety margin in a suitable species. Other regulated studies may also be deemed appropriate to fill the knowledge gap. The Guidance for Industry that perhaps should have been used is the Preclinical Assessment of Investigational Cellular and Gene Therapy Products [38], although, like the Development and Licensure of Vaccines to Prevent COVID-19 Guidance for Industry [39], in which the recommendations were also non-binding, the former guidance does recommend more extensive non-clinical studies—including full histopathology—and in the introduction states: “The Center for Biologics Evaluation and Research (CBER)/Office of Cellular, Tissue, and Gene Therapies (OCTGT) is issuing this guidance to provide sponsors and individuals that design and implement preclinical studies with recommendations on the substance and scope of preclinical information needed to support clinical trials for investigational cellular therapies, gene therapies, therapeutic vaccines, xenotransplantation, and certain biologic–device combination products which OCTGT reviews (hereinafter referred to as CGT products).”.
Until such definitive studies are carried out and results substantiated, it lends consideration for caution when deciding whether to administer the COVID-19 vaccines to the younger age groups.
