Performer Denies Anti-Vaccine Views Following Lending His Voice To Disputed Pandemic Documentary

The "Taken" star has lent his voice to a feature-length documentary that questions the legitimacy of vaccinations and lauds ex- health official the political figure.

The Documentary's Disputed Origins

Called "Plague of Corruption," the film is based on a bestselling book co-authored by a controversial scientist, who rose to infamy during the global outbreak for claims that Covid was caused by a problematic version of the seasonal immunization.

Her writing partner, a producer, has previously authored books with conspiracy-prone radio host the Infowars host. He wrote online praising Neeson's involvement in the project.

An Unequivocal Denial

A spokesperson for Neeson have provided a statement firmly refuting claims that he holds anti-immunization views.

"Many understand that misconduct can exist within the drug industry, but that should never be conflated with being against vaccines," the statement states. "Neeson never has been, and remains not, anti-vaccination. His extensive work with Unicef underscores his consistent support for global immunisation initiatives."

It noted that the star was not involved in crafting the project's editorial content and that inquiries about its claims should be directed to the producers.

Major Themes Within the Film

In the film, the script spoken by Neeson makes several strong points:

  • It claims that pro-vaccine voices have called for "blind obedience" to health authorities.
  • It declares that "medical science has become dangerously influenced by politics."
  • Kennedy is interviewed saying, "The major issue with vaccines is that they just aren't adequately tested."
  • It also criticizes stay-at-home orders, claiming they caused severe distress that cost thousands of lives.
  • Regarding the immunizations, it mentions a report that they were "rushed to market" and seen as "dangerous experiments."

Past Background and Ongoing Debates

The documentary includes a past television report about clinical trials on children, which was subsequently the topic of a BBC apology by the broadcaster for violations of guidelines.

In recent weeks, the political figure directed the Centers for Disease Control to revise its longstanding position that there is no connection between vaccines and autism spectrum disorder. This claim is echoed in the documentary, even with a recent study from the World Health Organisation confirming no evidence has been found.

A Previous Statement of Endorsement

Contrasting the film's message, Neeson has in the past voiced strong support for vaccines in his capacity as a UNICEF goodwill ambassador.

Previously, he called vaccines as "an extraordinary human success story," stating that "The conversation about vaccines in lately has lost sight of how much positive impact they have done... It is perhaps one of the biggest collective achievements in our history."

The film finishes with Neeson's script proclaiming, "This isn't the finish of our narrative. It is the beginning of a fresh chapter."
