Dr Kerryn Phelps is the last person I’d have expected to be a far-right conspiracy theorist, I have to say. Phelps is, after all, the prototypical “Teal”, a climate-bothering, Harbourside-mansion green-lefty, celebrity lesbian and former president of the Australian Medical Association. Yet here she is, peddling right-wing, white-supremacist, dangerous misinformation about Covid vaccines.
Former federal MP Dr Kerryn Phelps has revealed she and her wife both suffered serious and ongoing injures from Covid vaccines, while suggesting the true rate of adverse events is far higher than acknowledged due to underreporting and “threats” from medical regulators.
In an explosive submission to Parliament’s Long Covid inquiry, the former Australian Medical Association (AMA) president has broken her silence about the “devastating” experience — emerging as the most prominent public health figure in the country to speak up about the taboo subject.
I’ll admit, I was hugely sceptical of claims of widespread injuries from Covid vaccines for a long time. It seemed just too coincidental that the people who’d rejected the vaccines from the start were the first to start claiming injuries. It also had to be borne in mind that databases like VAERS are far from exact and are easily distorted by mendacious actors.
But the sheer volume of reported vaccine injuries suggests that something is up. Given everything else they lied to us about the Covid vaccines, too, taking official assurances for granted is certainly a fool’s game.
Nevertheless, when a leftist darling like Phelps comes out about vaccine injuries, it’s a sure sign of a seismic shift in public attitudes. If Phelps is acknowledging vaccine injuries, it means that it’s suddenly politically acceptable to do so.
“This is an issue that I have witnessed first-hand with my wife who suffered a severe neurological reaction to her first Pfizer vaccine within minutes, including burning face and gums, paraesethesiae, and numb hands and feet, while under observation by myself, another doctor and a registered nurse at the time of immunisation,” the 65-year-old said.
“I continue to observe the devastating effects a year-and-a-half later with the addition of fatigue and additional neurological symptoms including nerve pains, altered sense of smell, visual disturbance and musculoskeletal inflammation. The diagnosis and causation has been confirmed by several specialists who have told me that they have seen ‘a lot’ of patients in a similar situation.”
Like many people, Phelps took the assurances of the (Covid) vaccine promoters in good faith.
“We did a lot of homework before having the vaccine, particularly about choice of vaccine at the time. In asking about adverse side effects, we were told that ‘the worst thing that could happen would be anaphylaxis’ and that severe reactions such as myocarditis and pericarditis were ‘rare’.”
Turns out — they lied. Again.
Dr Phelps revealed she was also diagnosed with a vaccine injury from her second dose of Pfizer in July 2021, “with the diagnosis and causation confirmed by specialist colleagues”.
“I have had CT pulmonary angiogram, ECG, blood tests, cardiac echogram, transthoracic cardiac stress echo, Holter monitor, blood pressure monitoring and autonomic testing,” she wrote.
“In my case the injury resulted in dysautonomia with intermittent fevers and cardiovascular implications including breathlessness, inappropriate sinus tachycardia and blood pressure fluctuations.”
Dr Phelps said both reactions were reported to the Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA) “but never followed up”.
Still the culture of cover-up and silencing persists.
She revealed she had spoken with other doctors “who have themselves experienced a serious and persistent adverse event” but that “vaccine injury is a subject that few in the medical profession have wanted to talk about”.
“Regulators of the medical profession have censored public discussion about adverse events following immunisation, with threats to doctors not to make any public statements about anything that ‘might undermine the government’s vaccine rollout’ or risk suspension or loss of their registration,” she wrote […]
Despite the recognition of heart inflammation associated with the Pfizer and Moderna mRNA vaccines, Dr Phelps said “even then, there has been a misconception that myocarditis is ‘mild’, ‘transient’ and ‘mostly in young males’, when there are many cases where myocarditis is manifestly not mild, not transient and not confined to the young male demographic”.

Hey, remember when saying that was the sort of right-wing conspiracy theory and dangerous misinformation that would get you booted from social media? If you’re a doctor, “undermining the Covid vaccine rollout” can still get you deregistered or even prosecuted.
