Was Franklin Graham’s Heart Injury Related to the Jab?

Franklin Graham, evangelist and president of Samaritan’s Purse and the Billy Graham Evangelical Association, underwent heart surgery for complications resulting from pericarditis on Tuesday.

Graham’s surgery involved the removal of his pericardium, the protective sac surrounding the heart and the large blood vessels connected to it. According to a press release from Samaritan’s Purse, Graham had developed constrictive pericarditis – a swelling and hardening of the pericardium that was compressing his heart:

Franklin Graham successfully underwent a specialized heart surgery today at Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minnesota. In recent months, Franklin had developed constrictive pericarditis, inflammation, and hardening of the sac around the heart that compresses the heart and prevents it from working properly. The surgery involved removing the pericardium.

His doctors expect a full recovery and assured him that he should be able to return to his normal activity and ministry schedule. Mr. Graham said that he is looking forward to multiple opportunities across the globe in 2022 to proclaim the Gospel of Jesus Christ and invite people to put their faith in Him. He is also eager to resume riding his motorcycle by springtime. He and his family appreciate everyone’s prayers.

Pericarditis and myocarditis are well-known side effects of mRNA “vaccines,” with nearly 15,000 post-vaccine adverse events reported in the United States alone.

Graham notably promoted the righteousness of the COVID-19 vaccine for Christians, going so far as to say in an interview with ABC News that Jesus Himself would have promoted the jab, stating, “I think if there were vaccines available in the time of Christ, Jesus would have made reference to them and used them.”

To Graham’s credit, he has voiced opposition to vaccine mandates, preferring instead to encourage believers to willingly submit to the experimental injections.

The Christian Post reported Graham’s surgery on Tuesday yet conspicuously left out any mention of his promotion of the vaccine, or that the previously rare condition of pericarditis has suddenly become a much more common diagnosis. Doctors around the world (most alarmingly in countries with near-universal vaccination) are reporting influxes of patients who have developed sudden cardiac and respiratory complications post-vaccine – many weeks or months after the patient was “fully vaccinated.”

We certainly lift up Franklin Graham and his family in prayer and wish him a speedy and full recovery.

    1. I got $97450 up to now this year working on the online and I’m a full time student. I’AM profited. It’s really simple to know and I’m in order that cheerful that I got some answers cxx regarding it. Here what I do……. JobNews1

  1. Could very well be. There are reports that ERs are filling up with people having symptoms that align with known side-effects. Believe it or not, NPR (of all places) recently reported “ERs are now swamped with seriously ill patients — but many don’t even have COVID” … “Doctors and nurses say the severity of illness ranges widely and includes abdominal pain, respiratory problems, blood clots, heart conditions …”

  2. Seriously paycheck of $19632 and all i was doing is to copy and paste work online. this home work makes me able to generate more cash daily easily. simple to do work and regular income from this are just superb. Here what i am doing.

  3. Jesus Himself would have promoted the jab GET VAXXED NOW BEFORE WE MAKE YOU GET VAXXED YOU STUPID DOMESTIC TERRORISTS

    1. If you think Jesus would have wanted his children injected with the cells of murdered unborn children, you’re even dumber than I thought, dumbass.
      Let’s go, Johnny!!
      *insert tiny flags here denoting I am neither a godless sodomite nor mentally ill*

    2. What are you going to do when you can’t make us take that dangerous, deadly, ineffective, experimental drug? Nail us to a cross?

  4. The answer to the question posed is that the likelihood of his having constrictive pericarditis due to having been covid 19 vaxxed is somewhere between slim and zero.
    Constrictive pericarditis is a totally different thing than acute pericaditis or acute myopericarditis. The acute syndromes involve a variety of things causing pericardial inflammaton, such as a complication of recent myocardial infarctions (“coronaries”) referred to as Dressler’s syndrome, sometimes due to connective issue rheumatologic inflammatory diseases such as lupus, rheumatoid disease, and others; and not uncommonly an aftermath of recent open heart surgery (post pericardiotomy syndrome) and in some cases it is post-viral , particuarly coxackie B and echo viruses, and it appears a small percentage of patients with active covid 19 pneumonia. The acute pericarditis episode itself usually resolves, with or without active treatment. A small percentage (5-7%) will re-occur later, usually 18-24 months later, and fairly often continue to periodically re-occur after that. It’s the small percentage of patients with continued reoccurrences that eventually develop extensive persistent pericardial thickening that has the heart in a rigid case/vice which is constrictive pericarditis, usually requiring careful surgical resection if severe, as the only way to resolve the problem.

    In past years, constrictive pericarditis was often related to tuberculosis, now rare in the US but still an issue in other countries. A fair percentage of constrictive pericarditis is also an aftermath (sometimes hard to avoid) of thoracic radiation as part of some cancer treatments.

    In short, constrictive pericarditis usually is many months/years in the making, and the likelihood of it occurring this quickly after the covid 19 vaccine became available earlier this same year, is very low.

    In the bigger picture, nothing is black and white about the entire covid 19 vaccine issue and data. Data is still being collected and studied, including vaccine efficacy ( which is clearly not 100% effective, nor is it without mitigation value in those still getting infected), and the timing needs and pluses and minuses of boosters, all still being worked out.

    Yes, there are reports of acute pericarditis/myocarditis that appear to be vaccine related, but keep in mind it probably happens more often in patients actually infected with covid.

    And, there are differing perspectives one might consider about this all. There have been very tragic examples of severe injury from the Sabin/Salk polio vaccines, but in a tiny percentage of those receiving it, while the not terribly uncommon spectre of paralyitc polio, people in iron lungs to stay alive, etc. has all but disappeared from 80-100 years ago.

    The 15,000 adverse effects reported in the US is certainly unfortunate, but paired with the roughly 80 million Americans vaccinated to date, that amounts to 0.018 % of those vaccinated. Certainly reasonable people can view such differently. Is that small risk worth it? No black or white answer. There is no one size fits all, even though the entire issue has been overly politicized with too much coercion, likewise in certain other quarters, there have been statements or inferences unfairly questioning one’s faith in Christ, in my opinion.

    Myself, I recommend the vaxx for statistically higher risk groups, not so much others, and am very skeptical of vaccinating children with this one, based on known data. And I oppose coercive blanket government mandates.

    And for years I’ve known of a handful of acute pericarditis cases locally each year, and haven’t noticed much of any spike in that recently, despite some spikes in ICU filled with critical covid pneumonia cases.

    1. You are either pro-vaxx or a domestic terrorist. Stop posting lies! Vaxx is 100% safe and effective, even for babies!!! The evangelical leadership agrees with me and they condemn you. Wake up!!

    2. I am not a doctor, but I will tell you what a reasonable layperson such as myself would take from that.

      In short, “normal” doesn’t apply. You’re comparing apples and oranges. The normal time frame of the onset of an illness, devoid of outside influence or outside cause, is completely irrelevant. Right? People normally live to be 70 years old. But if you inject yourself with a syringe full of poison, then normal doesn’t apply. Those statistics are worthless, as are assumed probabilities – likelihoods.

      Just being flat-out honest with you here. A layperson might read what you have written, and find it to be dishonest.

      Comparing this so-called “vaccine” to traditional (real) vaccines, which build natural immunity, is also comparing apples and oranges. Just because you call it a “vaccine” doesn’t mean it’s equivalent to the polio vaccine in any way whatsoever. Further the original polio vaccine was suspended in 1955 when it was found to cause paralysis. If the polio vaccine caused as many injuries and deaths as the covid “vaccine” it would be immediately suspended. This covid “vaccine” has caused more serous injuries and deaths than all other vaccines have caused in more than a decade, combined. And that number is climbing fast.

      You have also misrepresented the numbers. As of 11/12, there have been 875,653 adverse events, and 18,461 deaths, in the US. Which gives the “vaccine” a death rate of 0.023%, and an adverse event rate of 1.094% – and this based only on what has been reported to VAERS.

      Factor out covid deaths with comorbidities, and this “vaccine” is more deadly than the virus it’s supposed to protect against. In particular, studies (at liberal universities) have found that young and healthy people are several times more likely to suffer serious injury or death from this “vaccine” than they are from the virus it is supposed to protect against. Most recently, a young and healthy 13 year old girl who died from the “vaccine” and who’s chance of dying from covid were less than “between slim and none”

      I’m an engineer. I do understand data. And I look at the data, as you say “bigger picture” and I see almost zero mitigation and zero effectiveness. If a vaccine (or psuedo-vaccine) is effective at all, then the number of cases, hospitalizations, and deaths should decrease as the number of vaccinated individuals increases. Yet throughout 2021, we saw the exact opposite. And that is just one example where the data doesn’t support the narrative.

      1. And that is not meant to be hostile. I tend to type out my thoughts quickly. I appreciate your comments, Dr. Whitemoon, and welcome any corrections or explanations.

      2. Correction: It is reported that 194 million people are “fully vaccinated” in the US, not 80 million. Which would put the death rate at 0.01% and the adverse event rate at 0.46%, based on what has been reported to VAERS.

    3. Ordinarily I would say I want to know the concrete benefits and the concrete risks, so I can make an informed decision. But the simple fact of the matter is that nobody knows the benefits or risks, as it relates to this novel “vaccine.” And with each passing day, it proves to have fewer and fewer benefits, and greater and greater risks.

      Such is not the case with something like the polio vaccine. We know the risks. We know the benefits. And we can make an informed decision based on that.

      If you’d asked me to take the polio vaccine back in the early 50’s, when it was causing many severe injuries and deaths, before it was suspended, I would’ve said the same thing I’m saying now. I want to know the benefits, risks, and weigh them for myself, relative to the risks of the illness. The government has no business mandating it. Each individual makes their own decision, which is between them and their Maker and nobody else, particularly when whichever of the two options you choose could result in serious injury or death.

      But we’re in a situation now where the risks are intentionally and blatantly being suppressed, while the experimental drug is being mandated. And that is just flat-out evil. To force or coerce someone into taking a dangerous drug is bad enough, but to purposefully censor and suppress information about the risks while doing so, makes it even worse. That alone is reason enough to stand up and say NO.

  5. God has zero patience for hippocrits like Franklin who put words and actions in the name of Jesus! Of course you would have to be a total looser to blaspheme the CREATOR as he tried to do! “Pride comes before the fall!”
