Actor Refutes Anti-Vax Stance Following Narrating Controversial Covid Film

The "Taken" star has lent his vocal talents to a feature-length documentary that casts doubt on the safety of immunizations and lauds former government figure Robert F Kennedy Jr.

The Film's Provocative Basis

Titled "Plague of Corruption," the project is based on a well-known publication published by Judy Mikovits, who rose to infamy during the pandemic for assertions that Covid was caused by a bad strain of the influenza shot.

The book's collaborator, Kent Heckenlively, has previously authored books with controversial figure a known commentator. The producer took to social media celebrating Neeson's involvement in the film.

A Strong Rebuttal

A spokesperson for Neeson have released a response strongly denying claims that he subscribes to anti-vaccine sentiments.

"Everyone can recognize that misconduct might be present within the medical sector, but that should never be equated to being against vaccines," the statement states. "He is not, and cannot be described as, anti-vax. His extensive work with the global charity highlights his consistent support for worldwide vaccination initiatives."

The statement noted that the performer did not shape the project's editorial content and that inquiries about its content should be directed to the producers.

Major Claims In the Documentary

According to the documentary, the script read by Neeson makes several provocative statements:

• It states that pro-vaccine voices have demanded "complete compliance" to health authorities.
• It posits that "medical science has become deeply politicised."
• RFK Jr is featured claiming, "The core flaw with vaccines is that they just aren't properly vetted."
• It takes aim at stay-at-home orders, saying they caused psychological harm that resulted in thousands of lives.
• Regarding Covid vaccines, it cites a perspective that they were "rushed to market" and seen as "hazardous tests."

Historical Background and Ongoing Issues

It further cites a 2004 BBC documentary about AIDS medication trials on children, which was subsequently the subject of a correction by the broadcaster for violations of guidelines.

Recently, RFK Jr instructed the national health agency to alter its long-held position that there is no link between immunizations and autism spectrum disorder. This claim is also referenced in the film, despite a fresh analysis from the World Health Organisation confirming no such link has been found.

A Previous Record of Support

Standing in contrast to the documentary's tone, Neeson has in the past expressed strong support for vaccines in his capacity as a Unicef global ambassador.

In 2022, he referred to vaccines as "an extraordinary human success story," noting that "The conversation about vaccines in recent years has lost sight of how much good they have done... It is perhaps one of the biggest shared accomplishments in history."

The film ends with Neeson's voice saying, "This isn't the end of our journey. It is the beginning of a fresh chapter."
