The coup d'état to attack from within
On the surface, Dr. Naor Bar Zeev seems like the epitome of how a Jewish doctor and scientist should act: respectful, soft spoken, full of real first-hand knowledge of medical science, as well as a fluency of pesukim and מאמרי חז"ל.
Dr. Bar Zeev takes on a personal interest in the well-being of not just all of his fellow brethren but seeks to better the world at large. His altruist ideals seem to be surpassed only by his actions on behalf of his nation and the world at large, a principle that he terms “Tikkun Olam”.
Perhaps his fast balling of relevant Torah phrases has made him the number one candidate to speak at events. His rare hybridization of Torah and Mada is the reason why he is often called upon to convince rabbanim as to why all vaccines should be mandated to all people all the time.
However, a dark side lurks in the shadows. As we may be well aware, academia is obsessed with Darwinism and loathes the very concept of Creationism. If one rejects the belief in G-d, something needs to fill that void.
Toward this end, the Humanist was invented.
For the Humanist, the direction of mankind on this planet is careening to a precarious untenable situation. In a world where ideas such as “Good without God” reign supreme, the current state of affairs would mark the end of the world as we know it. The human population is burgeoning and quickly depleting our precious resources. With the outlook that all is left up to chance, the world needs us mortals to save our planet.
Enter the World Health Organization (WHO):
The World Health Organization’s primary responsibility is ostensibly to promote health and wellbeing in third world countries around the globe. However, many openly stated that major objectives of the WHO revolve around female equality. Female rights are usually peppered with flowery expressions as “a woman’s right to choose” [i.e. abortion a.k.a. murder of the unborn], equality, and female empowerment.
These ideas are also the central theme of the Gates Foundation. One addition which the Gates Foundation supports over the WHO is the takeover of education. In fact, the Gates Foundation revolves only around three ideals: Vaccination, Education and Erasing inequality in women and girls.
The utopian idea of such “empowerment” is especially important to those who spew the Humanist dribble in African and Mediterranean countries. In explanation, it must be understood that the surpassing of the carrying capacity of the globe or overpopulation is a huge concern among Humanist subscribers. This is succinctly expressed in their manifesto featuring “the ten commitments”; “We must learn to live together, or we will perish together.” Family size in those locations is usually large and getting women in positions of power has been shown to reduce family size drastically. Education as well seeks to westernize the culture there, change public attitudes, encourage women to seek educational careers and join the workforce, and enforce compelling smaller family sizes. This is largely due to both seeing bearing children as “unequal” and as being a hindrance in a career, among other disincentives. Regarding vaccination, they believe that if there is a decrease in disease burden on these populations, they won’t be so inclined to “need” to have so many children, as more are likely to survive.
To thoroughly go through the Humanist way of thinking would involve writing a great deal of Kefirah, but suffice it to say that we, as frum Jews, are on the polar end of the spectrum regarding every single one of their “beliefs”.
It is interesting to note that not only is Dr. Bar Zeev actively employed by WHO and the Gates Foundation (as well as a host of other similar organizations, i.e. GAVI), but he espouses their viewpoints as well. In a Medical Ethics Society Conference sponsored by Yeshiva University, he lectured to the Jewish community about how the genome is made up of “residual viruses from millions of years of evolution”. In a letter to members of his shul of his native Australian community [which features chazanot, respects LBGTIQ and diversity], Dr. Bar Zeev states that “improving child health and reducing mortality… relate to literacy and female empowerment as much as they do to… availability of preventative interventions such as vaccination.” He likewise seems to be supportive of legislation in Malawi that would legalize abortions. It is quite troubling that someone who peppers his language with Torah ideals and is ostensibly “one of ours” steps forward and peddles such rhetoric.
A Family Pastime
Naor’s affiliations are not aberration, nor are they by chance. Indeed, it seems to be a family obsession. A quick peek into his wife’s curriculum vitae reveals more of the same. Sarah Bar-Zeev works for a branch of the U.N. called United Nations Population Fund, or UNFPA. According to the UNFPA website, the organization was created in response to the declaration of the United Nations General Assembly that parents need to responsibly determine the number and spacing of their children. Celebrating its successes, UNFPA gloats that due to their efforts, young people are more empowered than ever before. Sarah is also the first author listed on an eighty-page 2021 report from the Population Fund. In an infographic that encapsulates their mission forward, the following is presented as the first step:
The last step you ask?
That’s to create a “Foundation for the Future” by supplying information about family planning and providing access to vaccination!
So why is such a fellow so entrenched in our community that he domineers the hearts and minds of many of our rabbanim?
Maybe because he was set up to do just that.
It’s quite peculiar that someone who has a past and present of a life outlook so different than the community seems hellbent on getting the community to think like him. Was he sent into the community to create a seismic shift?
Bar-Zeev collaborates on some projects with Heidi Larson from the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine (LSHTM). Heidi runs the Vaccine Confidence Project funded by Merck, GlaxoSmithKline, and Johnson & Johnson. According to Larson, “Confidence is not just about accessible information, it is about the source, it is about the feeling.” She says that “the fundamental problem is the absolute lack of trust” and “part of the reason is that the scientific community has not listened to people who have questions, emotions and concerns.”
How do we foster trust? As Margert Sanger from Planned Parenthood noted in 1939
The most successful educational approach to the Negro is through a religious appeal. We don’t want the word to go out that we want to exterminate the Negro population. And the minister is the man who can straighten that idea if it ever occurs to any of their more rebellious members.
The idea of controlling the population through religious leaders is a tried and true method and is explained in detail in this article as it pertains to vaccines.
This is where the Bar-Zeev’s fill the void, as a couple that is collectively for or with the Gates Foundation, the CDC, the United Nations, GlaxoSmithKline, Merck, the World Health Organization, the Wellcome Trust, the Rockefeller Foundation and even the Chinese CDC, and more. This means that Naor understood the precepts of Humanism and Globalism fully. The fact that he can roll Torah concepts off his tongue made him the perfect candidate for the job! Relocation is no stranger for the Bar-Zeev’s who are comfortable in nearly every continent, and seem to have residences all over the world.
Next Stop! The Jewish community in Baltimore!
They are a couple that can fit themselves in the community, and then hollow it out from within. Think of it as missionaries.
Not only is Dr. Bar Zeev on payroll for the very pharmaceutical companies whose products he is promoting, but his “outreach” follows the playbook of his very own institution. Dr. Bar Zeev works for John Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health and specializes in Rotavirus. Interestingly, his institution supports a “RotaCouncil” to accelerate the introduction of rotavirus vaccines through the use of evidence and strategic communications, targeting policymakers and other key decision makers. This council advises scientists to “advocate” through respect, calmness, editorials, and through posing as an unbiased expert. There is a complete toolbox for scientists to use to promote, and Dr. Bar Zeev has been adhering to its every letter.
Naor has been extremely active since 2018 trying to have schools not recognize religious exemptions for vaccination. The fact that he took the self-proclaimed mantle as spokesperson of the Jewish people is something we should take strong issue with. It is disturbing when the Doctor offers his “daas Torah” on the subject of vaccines stating that, “Better 1,000 fines of $1000, and better schools being closed and better strife in the community, and school exclusion and frustration and consternation – better all that than one precious child being lost.” Perhaps, but that discretion should not be granted to someone who attended and absorbed the ideals of Charles Darwin University for six years of his life.
Earlier during the pandemic, there were two studies, one in the UK and one from the USA that were astonishingly homogeneous in their conclusion. These studies portrayed orthodox Jews in general, and Torah Observance in particular as a catalyst for disease spread. The takeaway from both of these studies was that unchecked Mitzva observance without government oversight is a clear present danger to public health. Interestingly, a contributor to the US study was the Gates Foundation. The only known actor within the frum community with a deep connection to the Gates Foundation is Naor Bar Zeev.
Dr. Naor Bar Zeev is also a senior scientist at the Malawi-Liverpool-Wellcome Trust Research Programme, which is core-funded by the Wellcome Trust of the UK. The Wellcome Trust is a spinoff of GlaxoSmithKline (who Dr. Bar Zeev works for) and is the equivalent to the Gates Foundation in England. At this point it may come as no surprise that the damning UK study was funded by the Wellcome Trust! For clarity, some of the above may be speculative, but based upon the mosaic of endeavors that Bar Zeev is enmeshed in, it’s the only logical conclusion.
When speaking about his conflicts of interest, he often mumbles that they are available on the internet without properly disclosing them. At other times he acknowledges that he may be compromised but explains that his relationships with industry are neither corruption, nor bribery; rather it is indeed an ethical duty. To flippantly dismiss the very notion of shochad and vested interest is against the Torah, unscientific, and against intuitive common sense. He concludes that “indeed the public must have access to these relationships so it can judge their validity for itself, and whether such relationships have been corrupted.” To this last statement we can both agree.
Vaccine Expert or Vaccine Shill?
Regarding the topic of vaccination in particular, Dr. Bar Zeev claims to have the clinical background behind him to make sweeping statements of safety. The doctor’s main area of expertise is Rotavirus, specifically for the Malawian community. Upon careful review of all the 87 studies that Bar Zeev either authored, co-authored, or collaborated on, there seems to be a serious misrepresentation on this doctor’s part. Nearly all his work involves vaccine efficacy and other peripheral issues surrounding vaccines with only one study focusing on safety (a second one, his most recent, is just a write up about another scientist's work). This just serves to underscore the reality that vaccine safety is not taken seriously enough. The fact of the matter is that he accepts funding from GlaxoSmithKline, one of the producers of the Rotavirus vaccine as well as Takeda and Merck. As described above, Dr. Bar Zeev goes to great lengths to explain that relationships with industry is neither corruption, nor bribery; rather it is indeed an ethical duty. This chicanery may be true if that duty would be taken seriously. However, it does seem that when safety is ignored and only efficacy is pursued the question of ethics returns. It definitely does appear as if his company is bent on sponsoring trials to put the vaccine in a positive light but would not like to bankroll trials that may subject the product to criticism.
Even in the single safety study in which Dr. Bar Zeev was listed as an author, only one condition caused by one vaccine was tested. Hardly the broad safety net that we are looking for. The study further made the open admission that “this finding contrasts with previous studies in high- and upper middle-income countries, in which an association with intussusception was found” possibly because of “diet, breast-feeding practices, microbiome, or levels of maternal antibodies” or a host of other reasons found in the Malawi population. In other words, it does not accurately reflect safety in first world countries. The fact that Dr. Bar Zeev superimposes the morbidity and mortality of diseases that he has seen in third world countries and applies their rate of fatality here, further undermines his credibility. There isn’t a credible scientist that would support such an absurd assertion.
From Humanist to Terrorist?
There is further indication that Naor’s objective is focused more on universal vaccine acceptance rather than vaccine safety. Credible scientists that are looking for safety and efficacy signals would see the job of using unscientific propaganda for increasing vaccination rates as a lethal conflict. Not so our hero. Dr. Bar-Zeev worked with the Rockefeller Foundation to create an artificial intelligence chatbot to promote the covid vaccine. He also met with Digital Leads of the CDC to promote his product geared to “communities of color”. The hype of Russian bots spreading vaccine “misinformation” is quite similar to the claim of Russian Collusion. It doesn’t exist. The only evidence of bots spreading misinformation is the Vira Chatbot by Naor and his team. Now that the Department of Homeland Security has called those who spread covid misinformation as terrorists, does that mean our good-intentioned Humanist friend has now turned into a terrorist?
The veneer that Naor tries to exude is one of respectfulness and understanding. The Façade falls off, though, when Dr. Bar Zeev veers off script. As an example, the doctor made a sweeping statement that “alum is safe''. However, one commenter pointed out that the only true placebo-controlled study that was used for vaccine licensure showed a 2.3% rise of autoimmune issues from aluminum adjuvants in just six months! Dr. Bar Zeev responded with an angry rant and called the commenter “malicious” for trying to better understand the science. After reviewing many of his writings and the way he is dismissive of the many safety concerns, it becomes questionable that perhaps there are other motives behind this doctor’s actions. Is he really that respectful and calm? Or is he just following an “evidence-based” approach for persuasion to execute the mission that he was conscripted for? That said, our decisions must be Torah-based and should only be decided by Gedolei Yisroel, not by those who attempt to manipulate or even usurp their decisions.
