The letter, organized by British cardiologist Dr. Aseem Malhotra and supported by over 160 medical and scientific professionals and also some public figures, calls for a thorough investigation into vaccine safety and effectiveness.Signatories, including actors Rob Schneider and Woody Harrelson, among others, request a pause in mRNA booster shots until safety concerns are addressed. Thay highlight ongoing questions about cardiovascular issues, cancer trends, excess deaths, and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/rubio-biden-should-follow-science-fire-dr-fauci\/\" title=\"Rubio: Biden Should &#039;Follow Science,&#039; Fire Dr. Fauci\">long-term health effects<\/a> since 2021, emphasizing the need to consider other factors like delayed healthcare and lockdown impacts. The signatories also criticize the UK COVID-19 Inquiry for not fully addressing vaccine safety evidence. The letter represents a political appeal to the new Prime Minister, Andy Burnham, to initiate a review, with the decision ultimately resting with the government.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><br \/>\n<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC \"-\/\/W3C\/\/DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional\/\/EN\" \"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/TR\/REC-html40\/loose.dtd\"><br \/>\n<?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><html><body><\/p>\n<section> \t\t\t\t<script>console.log(\"ad slot (AC1)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC1)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC2)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC3)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC4)\")<\/script><\/p>\n<p>Actor Woody Harrelson is among the signatories of an open letter asking Britain\u2019s new prime minister to examine claims of COVID vaccine harm.<\/p>\n<p>The letter is addressed to Prime Minister Andy Burnham and dated Aug. 28, according to the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hartgroup.org\/a-second-letter-to-our-fifth-prime-minister\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Health Advisory and Recovery Team<\/a>, which published it as a second appeal to a new British head of government.<\/p>\n<p>HART said the note is backed by more than 160 doctors, scientists, and other health professionals, plus a smaller group of public figures.<\/p>\n<p>British cardiologist Dr. Aseem Malhotra organized the letter, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gbnews.com\/health\/hollywood-star-and-wimbledon-legends-unite-in-call-for-covid-vaccine-harms-investigation\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">GB News reported<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Harrelson, 65, has previously criticized COVID restrictions and vaccine mandates.
