The Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals has issued a ruling on something that we’ve been trying to tell people for years. The pharmaceutical companies abruptly changed the definition of the word “vaccine” so that it could refer to its mRNA injections for COVID-19 as vaccines.

A four-judge panel for the Ninth Circuit has ruled that the mRNA shots are NOT—we repeat, NOT—vaccines.

This has massive implications and could ultimately strip away Big Pharma’s liability protections that prevent Americans from suing them for COVID jab injuries.

Teachers from the Los Angeles Unified School District (LAUSD) were fired over their refusal to take the COVID shots when Gov. Gavin Newsom mandated them. They sued the school district on the grounds that the shots are not actually vaccines. Three of the four justices hearing the case agreed with that argument in their ruling on Friday.

What’s the big deal? Why does this mean anything?

One of the arguments in favor of jab mandates was the Supreme Court precedent set in Jacobson v. Massachusetts in 1905. The high court ruled that the smallpox vaccine was related to preventing the spread of the virus. Therefore, the court ruled that vaccine mandates are a lawful public health tool because they can keep people from spreading disease.

The plaintiffs who were fired for standing their ground argued successfully that the COVID jabs are incapable of preventing the spread of COVID-19. At best, the jabs mitigate the symptoms that a person might experience for a few weeks. This means that the shots are functionally a type of medicine.

Nyquil might reduce your symptoms from a cold, but you can’t take it to prevent you from catching a cold or spreading it to others. That might be a bad analogy though, since Nyquil can’t cause you to suffer a spinal cord leakage and kill or paralyze you.

The court agreed with the plaintiffs that since the COVID jabs don’t prevent the spread of the disease, the Jacobson standard does not apply to them. It’s interesting to note that the defense attorneys representing the LAUSD could not point to a single scientific study proving the effectiveness of the COVID jabs.

This prompted the court to include this hilarious statement in its ruling:

“LAUSD only provides a CDC publication that says ‘COVID-19 vaccines are safe and effective.’ But ‘safe and effective’ for what?”

Exactly!

The attorneys for the fired teachers presented multiple scientific studies to the court showing that the jabs didn’t do anything to prevent the spread of COVID. The only thing that the LAUSD was able to provide to argue in favor of the jab mandates was a pamphlet from the CDC that says the jabs are “safe and effective.”

State governments and the federal government can mandate a vaccine under the Jacobson standard, but they cannot mandate a medical treatment. It’s a weird and dumb contradiction in US law, but it is what it is.

Governments cannot compel anyone to take a medical treatment if they don’t want to, because it violates the fundamental right to refuse a treatment. Since the shots are medicine and not “vaccines,” all COVID jab mandates are effectively nullified by this Ninth Circuit ruling.

The LAUSD never had the right to fire all those teachers. More than 1,000 of them stood their ground and refused to take the jab, and their careers were disrupted because of it. Many were forced to move out of state to places where the jabs were not mandated.

This ruling has huge implications beyond the LAUSD teachers. Under the congressional law that protects the Big Pharma companies from liability, the shielding only applies to valid traditional vaccines. You can’t sue Pfizer or Moderna if one of their vaccines hurts you, but the COVID shots are NOT vaccines based on this new legal standard.

According to America’s Frontline Doctors, “The CDC and pharmaceutical companies were fully aware of this critical distinction when they changed the definition of ‘vaccine’ in 2021 to include mRNA shots.”

This court ruling from the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals could ultimately lead to opening the floodgates for Americans to sue Pfizer and Moderna for their injuries and the deaths of their loved ones.
