Man Speaking to Ohio School Board Makes Several False Vaccine Claims

We found a number of inaccuracies – both in the viral video itself and in claims made about the video on social media. First, the man in the video identifies himself as “Dr. Sean Brooks, Ph.D., Oxford,” leading many to claim he attended the University of Oxford. However, he was speaking at a Talawanda School District board meeting, which is located in Oxford, Ohio. He was identifying where he was from when he said Oxford, not where he received his education.

A 2020 “Quite Frankly” podcast that featured Dr. Brooks offers more information about his education. The podcast states that he has a bachelor’s degree from Miami University, which is located in Oxford, Ohio, and a Ph.D. from the online Walden University. The author’s page in his book “Purposeful Deception: The Inside Plan to Communize and Destroy American K-12 Education” states that his degrees, including his Ph.D., are in education and not medicine.

The first false claim Brooks makes in the video is the assertion that those who have taken the vaccine will “die in the next six months to 3 to 5 years.” Americans began receiving COVID vaccinations in December 2020. Since then, the CDC states that 366,838,484 doses have been administered as of August 27, 2021. Therefore, within the first nine months and after hundreds of millions of doses, mass vaccine-related deaths have not occurred.

According to  the VAERS, between December 14, 2020, and August 23, 2021, there have been “6,968 reports of death (0.0019%) among people who received a COVID-19 vaccine.” However, VAERS requires any death that occurs after vaccination to be reported regardless of whether or not the vaccine was the cause. Other than three deaths that may be linked to blood clots from the Johnson and Johnson vaccine, no evidence has been found linking the vaccines with other deaths.

The next claim made by Brooks is that “you've dramatically decreased your own immune system by 35%. The first jab did it by at least 15, the second did it by 35.” However, vaccines help to develop immunity by causing the immune system to produce T-lymphocytes and antibodies. This helps your body fight infections using your immune system. There is no evidence linking vaccinations to decreasing the body’s natural immunity.

He also makes a claim that we have already disproven in a previous article – that COVID vaccinations cause miscarriages. Brooks states that “80% of the women who have been jabbed have lost their children in the first trimester.” But according to a recent study, there was a 13% rate of miscarriage in around 2,500 pregnant women who received mRNA COVID vaccinations. This is well within the average miscarriage rate for pregnancy and nowhere near the 80% he claims.

In the video, Brooks makes another claim that we previously covered, that vaccinated individuals “can no longer breastfeed, donate blood, donate organs, donate blood plasma nor bone marrow.” However, according to the Red Cross, this is also false. Vaccinated individuals are still eligible to donate blood, platelets, and plasma.
