Brechje de Gier, main investigator of the RIVM, as a co-author is getting a new study with criticism that she has served for years and ignorant disinformation, both From scientific and out of the uncontrollable angle.
Breated the Gier is fellow author from a last month published article1Unmeasured confounding and misclassification in vaccine effectiveness studies that the importance of HVE2HvE for dummies And valid data emphasizes-not to say "discovered", because in recent years nothing could be seen in RIVM reports.
Critical reports that denounced these wrong calculations were put aside, also politically. In the surpassing debate we saw State Secretary Karremans do that with a Word Salad of fallacies3State Secretary Karremans on Report Meester/Jacobs .
De Gier was a conversation partner of Bram Bakker, Ronald Meester and Jona Walk, she has seen them (our) pieces in which everything has been calculated and inadequate methodologies were filmed. The hardest criticism concerned the HVE and polluted/incomplete data. Every reference to this valuable preliminary work is missing in the study, Master/Bakker/Walk brands up in their substit4A plot twist in the story about the safety and effectiveness of coronavaccins.
No science is being skilled here, career paths are already being wiped clean. The old trick in which the HVE was allocated to vaccine effectiveness seems to be worked out and they would like to be ahead of Démasqué. In a little while, and RIVM will "discover" ivermectin.
This again raises fundamental questions about the scientific integrity of not only RIVM but also Statistics Netherlands, the UMCU5Another HVE study at level6More Nivel worries, who fabulated vaccin positive studies and interpretations for their bread on the basis of not only inadequate VE models (to a large extent due to HVE denial), sloppy methods and incomplete data7Mortality by cause of death: New (cancer).
Maurice de Hond tried in vain with official complaints, both at Nivel8 Complaints letter Wi Nivel as a umcu9Complaints letter Wi UMCU. Even he didn't get through it.
Impact thanks to the media
The lack of integrity is not only at the expense of reputations. Great damage arises because of the resulting public communication, facilitated by the media slavish slippers: Hilversum, Volkskrant, NRC, Trouw, Nu.nl, De Correspondent - just mention them. Because of their propaganda, the people want more measures because they work so well and so politics always add a few teeth, which in turn is hailed in the media, as in a death spiral10De Death Piral, article by Schippers Joannidis, Luijks.
A little science journalist had been on top of this.
The media have failed scandalously, not to say: collaborated. Pieter Klok (editor -in -chief VK) also says it himself in slightly different words and he is still behind it11Conversation at the new world. Because pointing out low -quality output from institutions, he sees by definition as "a populist trend", even though those institutions demonstrably make a game of it.
Holder or misunderstanding? Conspiracy or opportunism?
Would they really not have known, those excellent scientists in those shiny institutions? If you believe that you have a very low dunk of the level there. It is absolutely impossible that everyone in those buildings full of handsome heads missed how undesirable counter -arguments were ignored. At the very least, a few must have occasionally tried to make it negotiable. In vain. That is not an omission or difference of scientific insight: they have deliberately concealed it. That is not scientific, that is propagandistic.
Over the years we have seen it more often: initial contacts with employees of the RIVMS and Larebs of this country were benevolent and promising - but then the line suddenly fell dead. Falled back, undoubtedly. For example, see how RIVM put its fingers in the ears when the KNMI tried to explain that their models were not physically right. That was early in 202112Whistleblower KNMI: scientific integrity RIVM insufficient.
Do the new study of advancing scientific insight testify? Ammehoela. Strictly speaking, this new study is a totally superfluous work. It Healthy Vaccinee Effect Is Basic TextBook Material, this is simply the evaluation of an incorrect case that they have constructed themselves. What happens here is no more than wiping your own street: pretending they have come up with this themselves, only now. Then it can be taken back later on "The knowledge of the time, just look, our publication about the HVE did not come until May 2025."
There is probably an honorary doctorate or a science prize for Brechje de Gier somewhere because of this discovery.
It's really nothing new. It is something we have been honking in their ears for years. Even on this site it has been repeatedly referred to, explained what it is, how it is and how you can recognize it - even as a relative seeming - in the studies of our own (and foreign) health institutions. You actually see it in all the studies that come to a positive C19 vaccine effectiveness.
Although the HVE effect is explicitly mentioned as a likely cause of the effectiveness of the effectiveness of COVID-19 vaccines, the same researchers have never corrected their VE estimates for this mechanism! They found a comment about the need for future research and richer datasets. But that was very honest with the knowledge of the time!
Everything was done to protect the disastrous, even deadly politics. And the willingness to vaccination of course, because it had to remain intact at the expense of everything, although there had been Arsenicum in those C19 sprayers. It all has little to do with health science.
We already knew it in 2021 (and some in 2020): The C19 vaccines were a poorly prepared high-risk operation that ended in a drama, an ultrasound, a debacle, a walk-and nobody was allowed to know. That will ultimately be the conclusion.
It is not only "not honest", it is unscrupulous.

The final conclusion will start with: "With the knowledge of today ..." then turn into the debt to divide into small bits about everyone who played and role in the whole. Then everyone has a little bitter, nobody needs to be addressed too much for mistakes and we can continue as friends, on to the next pandemic.
As I recently heard, it is easier to forgive people who were wrong for years than to "forgive" the people who were right from the start.
PS there are missing here and there some words in the (possibly written in enthusiasm) piece, if you want someone to check again on voluntary basics if they are put online, I will be recommended.
Thanks again for your sharp criticism, Anton.
At European level, the street for the EU countries is already being swept clean thanks to
The French company Epiconcept, which is apparent from list of authors took the lead in writing this article (first and last authors)
There is clearly a market for this company to e.g. The b formulating the b formulating in the Netherlands is properly processed by Statistics Netherlands 😀.
It is still a preview, but it will probably be placed quickly and effortlessly with the well -known Eurosurveillance magazine. (Yes, that of the Droste PCR Paper)
Beautiful example of European bundling of business and politics (was this bundling, fascio not characteristic of fascism either?).
Stays (getting complete data) at best a case: if the calf is drowned, one dampens the well (a self -created digital well, also probably that).
Europe is not blamed and will solve all this well. Stays four. Must be standing up at all costs (to big to fail?)
The digital messages of the joining forces (fascistoid) Bourla and Von der Leyden are, however, a station too far.
PS Who will ask the parliamentary questions proposed by M/B/W in substitlines and to whom? Karremans has since been promoted to economic affairs.
Epicon concept? I didn't know yet.
Máar seriously, is Karremans gone again? You can see how serious that file is taken.
Unfortunately, Miss Tielen saw by the post (with "prevention") by Karremans. Miss Tielen who was a mother of a child deceased by vaccination that it was/is just an incident. Totally numb and unscrupulous and in favor of coercion. Wishing off her crades and the hinges that she will still commit will not work with a piece about HVE I fear.
Hyena Thielen
Thielen zat ook als Karremans support bij commissie vergadering om de Korte belachelijk te maken (zie noot 3).
Laatste raakte daardoor duidelijk van haar a propos. Opzetje geslaagd en nu dus beloont en officieel in functie om kritische geluiden verder te smoren.
Hoe duidelijk wil je het hebben. Alles wordt in het werk gezet om doofpot dicht te houden. Misselijk makend.
Idd, you see them already paving the path.
I will read it again and corrections are always welcome! Can in the comments or to redactie@virusvaria.nl
In management terms this is called: "Compliance". That is, all noses in the same direction, otherwise you will be out or you will be parked on a side track.
There are roughly two reasons to adapt and omit (well -founded) criticism: fear and opportunism, or both.
Either they are afraid of their job (livelihood, mortgage and the like), or they think they can benefit from it (more research money, a promotion, etc.).
Very unfortunate that (scientific) integrity has to be lost.
I can still understand a bit of understanding for the fear hazes, not at all for the opportunists.
Fortunately, there are still honest researchers, doctors, publicists, etc. who dare to swim against the current.
Thank you Anton, another nice article.
A third, and I think most common reason, is that criticism is not delivered because people don't see it.
After 5 years, such stupidity may seem unlikely, but don't forget that the newspaper reading/being instructed that "Covid is over", after which they are stare at the other Looney tunes that the newspaper and Teevee manage to serve daily to the non -suspicious reader/viewer.
Ik sluit niet uit dat ook deze groep minder stupide is dan datze zich voordoet, maar dat ze hun stupiditeit onbewust proberen te verwerken (erkennen wat er gebeurd is in hun leven) net zoals als, bij gebrek aan een beter voorbeeld (ik haat 1984, vind het het een rotboek), het personage Parsons=de gezagtrouwe buurman van Winston Smith, die tegen de lamp loopt omdat hij ‘s nachts in zijn dromen zegt: ‘Down with Big Brother without being aware of this!
What strikes me is that most critical scientists are retired. Emiritus professors can afford to speak out. This also applies to the climate discussion. People who are still active are influenced by all the reasons mentioned above. Of course there are exceptions, but the pattern is there. And perhaps they have more time to reflect and to distance themselves from the issues of the day.
Not scientists (the vast majority of people) follow the propaganda in the mainstream media. It strikes me that opinions are simply repeated. If an article already starts with "the Antivaxxer" Robert Kennedy, the content is not even relevant anymore. Most newspaper articles are of a sad level and often based on "gaslighting", not on content. The readers do not bother to find out what Kennedy actually says. What he says sounds surprisingly wise.
I have tried to have a substantive conversation several times, but it doesn't work. The gap between my observations and their reality is too great. If only they took the trouble to follow the conversation with Pierre Capel, for example, a light might come. I may not be that good at it either. Too little patience.
I have sometimes shown a Capel video to someone. After a few minutes he started to copy him with his affected statement, wobbly voice, "and this and that etcetera".
Heilloos.
"People" as in "the population"? At least 80% live in a media -aged world, that is a fact. Their reality is what they see on TV and in the newspaper. And with them in the street where 80% watch TV and reads newspaper.
The fact that they do not puncture it critically can not blame them because they just don't have that power.
The links that are before, that's what it's all about, because they abuse that inability. The last fire wall that could protect the archeos, journalism, has been doing fanatically in the Social Engineering for some time and is getting ahead throughout Pieter Klok.
In short, 80% ((ahead: 85%) "Do not see it" by definition. That is the mass that is played with unilateral reporting to create Momentum. They should be forced to choose between different visions.
You assume that they know what it's like behind the news.
How do you know that?
In any case, I don't see anything of it. What I see is that a delusion of the day is followed, both before and behind the news, day in day out. Those who do not want to go along with that will have to think (learn/recover). That is not that difficult, but most people do not want to take on the responsibility of themselves at all. Why should they too? You only get more lazier.
What is the answer to two plus two?
-What you say doctor.
Or
What is the answer to two plus two?
-Four!
That is very disappointing me.
-Sorry doctor.
Or
What is the answer to two plus two?
-Five!
You are well aware of the latest state of affairs regarding your illness!
-Dank you doctor.
That's how it goes, and not just in consultation rooms from hospitals. I can't help it either.
"You assume that they know what it's like behind the news." No. They should know it, but they have lost that critical capacity. Unconsciously or deliberately - I don't know. It will be a mixture, some do, most not.
Yet I have now become a bit tired from against the current swimming. All the fun of my family members is threatened by the heat. Would all those cult members now be really afraid of the disease of suddenly because of so -called heat stress or do they know very well that there is another cause? Also overweight is of course not useful with heat, but it is not that warm at all. Yesterday, two extremely fat young women were distributed for free (poor quality) ice cream at a primary school. All children were held in a very long line. It took almost the entire school afternoon (I came back and hours later). So sad.
In a democracy, a balance is sought between the different interests of all citizens.
Our Western society is no longer democracy. Nowadays it's all about the interests of the ultra-rich. All this under the guise of economic growth and efficiency. The idea is that a kind of trickle-down process occurs, so that everyone also benefits a bit (and that is just the question).
Democratic processes are slow and inefficient. Top-down methods to represent economic interests as efficiently as possible are:
Indoctrination (persuasive communication, nudging, disinformation control, etc.).
Control (rules, control systems and fueling social control).
Make part of the population complicit (Fueling opportunism, bonuses, prestigious prices, etc).
And finally: repression and blackmail.
The coronacrisis has made it clear that we are in the middle of it.
Crisping crises is very helpful. And also delivers a mecca for speculation capitalists.
In the end, the system gets stuck automatically. It is fake, more and more lies are being added and it is unjust. That will not be sustainable in the long term. The last convulsions are unfortunately annoying.
I cannot determine which of the four tactics the RIVM/NIVEL researchers have fallen prey to. Probably a combination of the first three.
Sent an e-mail to the virus variety editing about the call from Foodwatch that the science (food but also more general) is reversed. The cause is mainly sought in the cuts of education by the government, but the real reason is also mentioned and recognized. So purchased science. We know here how it is because it is even worse. Nevertheless, I see the article as a small crack in the glorifying by many of "the science" that we have been bombarded by, among other things, politicians, media and even the judiciary.
Cees: Kennedy, I experience that just as you describe it. Very sensible language and policy, but smeared and framed in the media. Downright embarrassing, especially here in NL. VK, NRC, NOS, ...: name them, all the same (silly) line. Not to mention politics. How do we get out of this rabbithole in GN?
By the way: good piece again, Anton.
