Star Rejects Anti-Vax Stance Following Lending His Voice To Contentious Coronavirus Documentary

The acclaimed actor has given his narration to a feature-length documentary that casts doubt on the safety of vaccines and commends ex- cabinet secretary the political figure.

The Feature's Disputed Foundation

Named "Plague of Corruption," the film is adapted from a popular book co-authored by Judy Mikovits, who became famous during the global outbreak for allegations that Covid was linked to a faulty batch of the influenza shot.

The publication's co-author, a producer, has penned books with conspiracy-prone figure the Infowars host. He wrote online celebrating Neeson's participation in the documentary.

A Firm Statement

The team of the actor have released a statement firmly refuting suggestions that he supports anti-vaccine sentiments.

"We all understand that corruption may occur within the pharmaceutical industry, but that cannot be equated to opposition to vaccines," the response reads. "Neeson has never been, and is not, anti-vax. His considerable work with Unicef underscores his enduring support for public-health initiatives."

The response noted that the actor had no hand in the film's narrative and that inquiries about its assertions ought to go to the producers.

Major Claims Featured in the Documentary

As presented, the narration provided by Neeson makes several strong points:

• It claims that pro-immunization voices have called for "blind obedience" to health authorities.
• It posits that "medical science has become deeply politicized."
• Kennedy is shown saying, "The big problem with vaccines is that they are not properly vetted."
• The narration takes aim at pandemic restrictions, arguing they caused psychological harm that cost thousands of lives.
• On the topic of Covid vaccines, it mentions a view that they were "developed too quickly" and seen as "dangerous experiments."

Past Controversy and Current Disputes

The documentary further cites a 2004 BBC documentary about HIV drug testing on children, which was afterwards the focus of a formal apology by the broadcaster for editorial breaches.

Recently, Kennedy called on the national health agency to change its long-held position that there is no link between immunizations and autism. This assertion is echoed in the documentary, even with a recent study from the global health body confirming no connection has been found.

An Earlier Record of Support

Contrasting the film's message, Neeson has in the past shown firm endorsement for vaccines in his role as a charity ambassador.

In 2022, he described vaccines as "a remarkable triumph," stating that "The debate about vaccines in recent years has lost sight of how much benefit they have done... It is perhaps one of the biggest collective achievements in history."

The documentary finishes with Neeson's narration stating, "This is not the finish of our narrative. It is the dawn of a new chapter."
