Ever since the introduction of COVID-19 biologics in the U.S market, a significant proportion of vaccinated people have reported many adverse events following the shots. Approximately 1.5 million COVID shot injuries and deaths have been reported into the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS).1 Cardiovascular adverse events have been common adverse events that have been reported by recipients. Hypertension has been prominent among these. There have been over 7,900 reported cases in VAERS of hypertension following COVID shots.2
There have been several COVID biologics developed around the world that use different technologies, including those that use live attenuated viruses or recombinant proteins, those that are inactivated, and those that are of the viral vector or replication-competent vector variety, as well as the DNA and mRNA variety. Despite these biologics having an efficacy of between 67 to 95 percent in clinical trials, there have been concerns regarding their safety.3
Although there was no signal of elevated blood pressure during the phase III clinical trials of the COVID biologics, an increase in blood pressure after receiving these shots has been reported in several studies.4 5 6 7
A 2022 systematic review of several studies published in the Journal of Cardiovascular Development and Disease examined 357,387 subjects with 13,444 events of abnormal or increased blood pressure showed evidence of elevated blood pressure after COVID vaccination is not unusual. The proportion of patients with abnormal blood pressure or with a significant increase in blood pressure ranged from 0.93 to 23.72 percent. The estimate of stage III hypertension or hypertensive urgencies and emergencies following COVID vaccination was 0.6 percent.8
Study Showed Incidence of High Blood Pressure in Health Care Workers at Hospital in France
A 2022 study published The Journal of Human Hypertension in health care workers who received the Pfizer/BioNTech Comirnaty mRNA COVID biologic in a University Hospital in Toulouse, France.9 The aim of the study was to describe the course of blood pressure values after the first and the second injection of Comirnaty to assess the prevalence of high blood pressure values in this population.
Blood pressure was measured 15 minutes after the injection in all patients who received a first or a second injection. Hypertension was defined as blood pressure greater than or equal to 140/90 mmHg and grade III hypertension was declared if BP was greater than or equal to 180/111 mmHg. The results showed that 37 percent of subjects exhibited high blood pressure 15 minutes after the first dose and slightly less after the second dose. The researchers noted that the main limitation of this study was the lack of pre-vaccination control blood pressure values.10
Further Studies Needed to Investigate the Association Between COVID Shots and Hypertension
The precise biological mechanism of how COVID shots increase blood pressure is not fully understood, thus requiring further studies to understand the association. Researchers are calling for studies conducted on large case that include a baseline measurement of blood pressure in the days prior to and after the injections as well as what the average duration of the blood pressure increase is since anecdotal data shows that duration of the elevated blood pressure varies from a few days to a few weeks.11

This article reads as if it was written by special interests hell bent on protecting the pharmasuetical industrial complex from accountability. ‘The precise biological mechanism of how COVID shots increase blood pressure is not fully understood, thus requiring further studies to understand the association.’ Take your blinders off, the research is already present and accounted for. There are thousands of doctors outside of this controlled network whom has proved the harm and the mechanism of harm up and down. Dr Judy. Alex. Dr Mallone. McCullough. Zelinko. Montierre. Another few thousand if you’d care to step outside of your industry controlled echo chamber and actually learn something. No wonder people don’t trust the medical establishment, geesh. All too many people have a severe case of observational bias which they will apparently be stuck in the ‘prove it’ position for the rest of their lives. It’s because they can’t logically reconcile the notion against their egos, that they were outright lied to, fell for it, and continue to be lied to daily. The intent of the vaccine was to harm. They knew about all these eventualities far far ahead of time and pushed the shot anyways to cover up for decades of harm caused by other vaccinations, and the truth was finally coming out. That’s it. Deal with the real world. Extreme corruption in the pharmaceuticals practices is the status quo.
The internet 2023; ‘It’s the jab, stupid.’
FYI, there are even supplements and treatments available. Logic check; How could there already be treatments if the research is ‘not fully understood’? Did you skip the died suddenly documentary? The proteins grow abnormally, the body attacks them, the veins which are already damaged by nano particles are further compromised, anything and everything can happen from clots to clogs, hemorrhaging, total internal systems failure which cascades from where the substances first set in the body which is truly random. Tenpenny has insider connections to production facilities. Under emergency authorization the formula can be changed substantially without disclosure. She says they’re getting unknown substances in the mail from chinese manufacturers and are just putting it in. That elevated blood pressure is the bodies mounting defense to injection of a foreign substance, aka poison. The whole premise of vaccine technology is flawed, observing an immune response is not what they presume it to be. All people accomplish when they walk away from vaccinations is proving to themselves they can be poisoned and survive. There is no such thing as a safe vaccine, not in their current ‘modern’ delivery forms. They all cause harm, some more than others. Without all the adjuvants your body just encapsulates the vaccine substances and purges them immediately. When the human bodies natural processes are actually allowed to operate without interference. Who needs that though, because, like science and profit and stuff.

My heart rate went up from a lifelong 62 to 109 almost immediately after taking the second jab. It has stayed high ever since, the norm now being 87 or so. This didn’t “just happen”. It was Moderna.
They personally should have checked it the next day. I have ‘white coat syndrome’ – my blood pressure goes up when doctors take my blood pressure. They should have kept a record for themselves and supplied it to doctors.
Also, I wonder if it stayed up?
What amateurs? University hospital.
Don’t they know to measure before and after?
This study was designed to be in conclusive. Intentionally or stupidity?
Is university hospital stupid or corrupt?
Bottom line: Covid19 biologics products carry too many unknown risks. They suddenly rushed experimental vaccine products in the market for the public. It doesn’t make any sense to get vaccinated and boosted. ?♀️
I don’t know if they already developed pre pandemic Covid vaccines, but I strongly suggest you to check real not rare link.
I’ve had hypertension for most of my life and as I became older (now 77) its become very unstable, even elevating to numbers that cause me trips to ER. I’m on a doctor’s program of 2 different meds 3 times a day. if these shysters cared about people at all they wouldn’t be so cavalier about dispensing this poison to anyone and everyone. Thank God I never considered taking it!
