Why is US Senator Diane Feinstein Hiding Her Medical History, W.R.T. Shingles?

Senator Feinstein’s office would not disclose her shingles and/or COVID vaccine status. Why not? How does keeping it secret protect the public?

Executive summary

The COVID vaccine re-activates shingles with a vengeance.

Senator Feinstein doesn’t want you to make that connection because it would mean she would look bad for having pushed the COVID shots.

Introduction

But I’d like to know how keeping her history secret benefits the public.

She pushed the vaccines. Over and over. And over.

She even wanted to require vaccination or COVID tests for air travel.

We all know now how ludicrous such a suggestion was.

Not only do we know now that the COVID vaccines make you more likely to get COVID, they also re-activate the varicella zoster virus (VZV) that causes shingles and chickenpox and they cause it to return with a vengeance.

I hear these “got vaxxed, got shingles” stories on a regular basis. It’s so common, it’s even in the peer-reviewed scientific literature: Real-world evidence from over one million COVID-19 vaccinations is consistent with reactivation of the varicella-zoster virus.

So it seems highly likely that Feinstein was heavily COVID vaccinated and that even a shingles vaccine couldn’t protect her from the COVID vaccine.

I’m guessing that she doesn’t want you to know she had a shingles vaccine and how many COVID vaccines she got and when she got them because she doesn’t want you to get further confirmation of the link between the vaccines and shingles reactivation. Because the more examples like this come out, the less likely people are to get the COVID vaccine.

She doesn’t want to create vaccine hesitancy so she remains silent, just like everyone else.

And did you notice that shingles is related to Ramsay Hunt syndrome… you know, the thing that Justin Bieber got soon after he was vaccinated?

Presumably, Senator Feinstein wanted to save lives when she tried to require vaccination and testing to board a flight.

But now, when the science shows the opposite, she’s not willing to disclose her status to add to the body of knowledge we have.

Here’s why she can’t say anything: because all answers make her look bad

If she didn’t get the shingles vax, why didn’t she? Does she know something?

If she didn’t get the COVID vax, why didn’t she? She told everyone else to!!

If she did get the COVID vax, then that would explain her shingles with a vengeance diagnosis. Why not reveal when she got the shots?

Summary

There is no reason she can’t tell us her vax status and save lives.

You can die from shingles. How does remaining silent save lives?

If she dies, does she still want to keep her COVID vax records a secret?

In short, protecting the vaccine and her reputation is much more important than letting people know the truth and saving lives.

And that’s just the way it goes.]

Sen. Dianne Feinstein hospitalized with shingles in San Francisco

In a statement, Feinstein, 89, said she got the shingles diagnosis while the Senate was in recess late last month.

Sen. Dianne Feinstein, D-Calif., said Thursday she was hospitalized in San Francisco with shingles after she missed Senate votes this week.

In a statement, Feinstein, 89, said she got the shingles diagnosis while the Senate was in recess late last month.

“I have been hospitalized and am receiving treatment in San Francisco and expect to make a full recovery,” Feinstein said. “I hope to return to the Senate later this month.”

Asked about her absence amid missed votes this week, her office said Wednesday that she was “dealing with a health matter” and hoped to “return to Washington soon.”

Feinstein said last month that she will retire from Congress at the end of 2024 after having served three decades in the Senate and over 50 years in public office.

Feinstein, the oldest sitting senator and the longest-serving senator from California, was first elected to the Senate in 1992.

The announcement of her departure has set up a heated race to replace her, with a handful of candidates already running to be the Democratic candidate next year.

Feinstein is one of a handful of lawmakers who have been sidelined in recent weeks by medical concerns.

Sen. Bob Casey, D-Pa., recently returned to Washington after having undergone surgery last month for prostate cancer. Rep. Joaquin Castro, D-Texas, also underwent surgery to remove tumors in the lining of his gastrointestinal tract; he said in a statement last week that he planned to recover for “several weeks” before he returns to Washington.

Sen. John Fetterman’s office said this week that Fetterman, D-Pa., remained hospitalized after he checked himself into Walter Reed National Military Medical Center last month for clinical depression.
