Covid vaccine whistleblower Deborah Conrad outs Rochester Regional Health for suppressing adverse event reporting, Attorney Siri letter, 90 % of admissions vaccinated, she was to “support the Hospital’s approach to the vaccine.”

From Rochester Regional Health Physician Assistant Deborah Conrad’s attorney Aaron Siri.

“A concerned Physician Assistant, Deborah Conrad, convinced her hospital to carefully track the Covid-19 vaccination status of every patient admitted to her hospital.  The result is shocking.

As Ms. Conrad has detailed, her hospital serves a community in which less than 50% of the individuals were vaccinated for Covid-19 but yet, during the same time period, approximately 90% of the individuals admitted to her hospital were documented to have received this vaccine.

These patients were admitted for a variety of reasons, including but not limited to COVID-19 infections.  Even more troubling is that there were many individuals who were young, many who presented with unusual or unexpected health events, and many who were admitted months after vaccination.

One would think that after an association was identified by a healthcare professional, our health authorities would at least review this finding, right?  Sadly, when Ms. Conrad reached out to health authorities herself, she was ignored.  My firm then sent a letter to the CDC and FDA on July 19, 2021 on Ms. Conrad’s behalf”

Attorney Siri letter to Rochester Regional Health:

“We write on behalf of our client, Deborah Conrad, a Physician Assistant at United
Memorial Medical Center, a hospital within the Rochester Regional Health system (the
“Hospital”). Ms. Conrad is in constant communication with patients and other hospital staff and
has knowledge of numerous serious post-COVID-19 vaccine adverse events, including
breakthrough cases and deaths, that have not been reported to either the Vaccine Adverse Events
Reporting System (“VAERS”) or the New York State Department of Health (“NYSDOH”). For
the past few months, on her own time, Ms. Conrad has been assisting doctors and other medical
professionals at the hospital to report such events to VAERS. Instead of praising her efforts,
numerous individuals at the Hospital, including Tara Gellasch and Peter Janes, ordered Ms. Conrad
to stop reporting to VAERS altogether unless the patient she was reporting on was her patient.
Since being given this order, Ms. Conrad has knowledge of dozens patients whose conditions
necessitate a VAERS report and whose treating nurses and doctors have not filed a VAERS report.

As you are likely aware, healthcare workers are mandated by federal law to report certain
medical events arising after vaccination to VAERS. Pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 300aa-25:”

“When Ms. Conrad observed that serious adverse events directly following initial use of
COVID-19 vaccinations were not being reported to VAERS, she volunteered to submit the
necessary reports to VAERS on her colleagues’ behalf. Ms. Conrad was doing so after her paid
shifts ended because she understands the critical importance of the task. In response, the Hospital
told Ms. Conrad they were going to audit the VAERS reports that Ms. Conrad submitted and that
“in [her] clinical role and as a leader in the organization” she was to “support [the Hospital’s]
approach to the vaccine.” Submitting VAERS reports for adverse events following vaccination
should not be contrary to any “approach to the vaccine.” It should be part of the Hospital’s
approach. It is alarming that the Hospital’s “approach to the vaccines” has not included educating
healthcare providers about VAERS and encouraging them to efficiently and consistently make
reports. Contrary to this, healthcare providers at the Hospital are not being directed to ask patients
about recent vaccination nor are they able to efficiently submit or track VAERS reports within the
Hospital’s electronic system. And it now appears they are being deterred from doing so.

As Ms. Conrad told the Hospital, she has personally treated five patients that presented
with new, unprovoked deep vein thrombosis or pulmonary embolisms within 6 weeks of COVID19 vaccination. She has also seen patients that, after receipt of COVID-19 vaccination, presented
with a new stroke, bleed, autoimmune hepatitis, sudden bilateral pneumonia or COVID-19
infection, as well as syncope with head injury, STEMI, new arrhythmias, new seizure disorders,
new chorea movement disorder, and more. In one day alone, Ms. Conrad had four patients with
sudden bilateral pneumonia within a week of their COVID-19 vaccination. Ms. Conrad
understands that it is not her responsibility to determine any causation but that it is her duty to
report these instances to VAERS so that the FDA and CDC have adequate data by which to detect
potential safety signals. The Hospital has prohibited Ms. Conrad from filing a VAERS reports for
any of these serious events after COVID-19 vaccination unless she directly treats the patient.

In auditing the VAERS reports submitted by Ms. Conrad for a four-week period – totaling
50 adverse event reports, which includes 4 deaths – the Hospital’s Chief Quality Officer, Hiloni
Bhavsar stated that she has “not heard this level of reporting from anywhere else and didn’t hear
similar reports from URMC.”

This is Ms. Conrad’s precise concern: if she is not submitting the VAERS reports, they are
not being submitted. The Hospital, through Ms. Gellasch, told Ms. Conrad: “we need to make sure
we are providing a consistent message to our team and we need to make sure that that is also in
alignment with what our health system is asking us to do.”

“When Ms. Conrad again explained why she has the concerns she has about underreporting,
she was called an anti-vaxxer by Ms. Gellasch:
I don’t want us to go down any kind of rabbit hole here but the thing
I think we need to be clear about and I am just going to be frank with
you …in reading the few emails you sent me and reading the email
that went out to the provider, it does come across a bit…uh very
vaccine…ugh I won’t say very but it comes out quite, it comes out
quite almost anti-vaxxy, right, and you know, clearly as an
organization, as a health system, right and as … an organization that
is working on following CDC guidelines and following the guidance
of the department of health, we are very much advocating for
patients to receive the vaccine. And we are very much working on
the…effort to work to try and reduce vaccine hesitancy… We want
people to understand that on the whole this is a very safe vaccine
and that the science supports that.”

““Towing the company line” does not relieve the Hospital of its obligations. Please
forthwith confirm that the Hospital’s mission is consistent with taking all necessary steps to fulfill
its legal and ethical obligations to report the mandated medical events following COVID-19
vaccination to VAERS pursuant to federal law,”
