Three CAF Injury Patterns and Estate File Obstruction

Day 1 · 5:27:33 · Catherine Christensen

• ❤️ Case patterns include myocarditis after forced second doses, massive clots, and open-heart injury in a top athlete.
• 🚫 Releases list mental health; chain of command ignored ICU stays and moral injury compounded physical harm.
• ⚰️ Forces obstruct executors’ access to complete medical files even after a mid-30s cardiac death and false murder suspicion.

Anonymized client patterns plus denied boards of inquiry and Privacy Act file blocks.

I'm going to give you 3 short patterns. They are— they're not isolated. Related, and I've seen them in non-commissioned members, non-commissioned officers, and in officers. First, an officer previously well, and in fact, uh, was above the, uh, requirement for fitness in the Armed Forces, developed myocarditis symptoms after the first Pfizer injection. The MIR, or medical unit, downplayed them. The second injection was mandated mandatory. His symptoms worsened. A cluster of other conditions that did not exist before the vaccine followed. It took 2.5 years to obtain a proper diagnosis the injury was caused by an mRNA COVID-19 vaccine. The medical paperwork required years of fighting the CAF system so that he would even have a chance at a Veterans Affairs claim. He is now being medically released for mental health, not for vaccine injury.

Second, a fully healthy non-commissioned officer developed a severe headache immediately after his first Moderna dose and spent 14 days in a dark room. He pleaded not to take the second injection. He was ordered to take it or be released in under a less than honorable category. After the second dose, the headache returned. He tried to work, collapsed in the snow when he went to start his car, unconscious, woke up and managed to crawl back into his house and call 911. His lungs were so full of blood clots that his oxygen saturation was under 30%, and the emergency physicians treating him could not explain how he managed to survive it. He's now being released because he's on permanent blood thinners and the headaches are unmanageable. His release condition on his medical record is mental health. Third, a top Canadian Armed Forces athlete with years of service left had two Moderna injections, and that has left him with an incapacitating cardiac injury.

He underwent open heart surgery at a major cardiac hospital, and he barely survived it. He was released on a medical category with no recognition of the cause. While he was in ICU, his chain of command— he was still serving— his chain of command did not acknowledge that he was even in the hospital. The moral injury, the belief that the institution would take care him if he was badly hurt in service, and then the experience of being left has been as destructive as a physical injury. He wanted to sit where I am sitting. The psychological injury made that impossible. A soldier who would have had no difficulty facing anything on the battlefield has been made into a crippled old man before his time. Across other files, I see new onset neurological symptoms, severe fatigue, reproductive health disruption, and persistent digestive tract illnesses after vaccination, all with the same documentation fight.

Boards of inquiry, inquiry were requested after sudden cardiac events or death, which would have been the normal course of action by the Canadian Armed Forces under those circumstances, have been limited, delayed, or medically contested. Injuries are being absorbed into medical category changes and quiet releases rather than named. The pattern doesn't stop at the living. In multiple cases involving Canadian Armed Forces members who died between 2021 and 2024, the Forces and the department have refused or obstructed release of the deceased member's complete medical file to the executor. Where even where the executor is the legal personal representative and the needs and needs that record for cause of death, to make a vaccine impact assistance program claim, Veterans Affairs benefits, or to support a board of inquiry.

The Privacy Act permits that disclosure to a lawful representative. It says it is still being reviewed refused. One file makes that cost of refusal concrete. A healthy soldier in his mid-30s deadlifted 600 pounds at the gym. Two days later, his wife woke up to him cold beside her. The autopsy showed cardiac death. Before the cause of death was known, the Canadian Forces National Investigation Service treated the widow as a murder a suspect. When the medical cause was established, that accusation fell away. What did not fall away was the institution's refusal to release his medical file to the widow or counsel, despite the Privacy Act allowing it. She was first made a suspect in her husband's death. She was then denied the one record that would let her understand what his heart was doing in the days and weeks before he died, including any temporal relationship to vaccination.

An executor in civilian life can ordinarily obtain a deceased medical file. These families cannot. The primary evidence sits with the Canadian Forces Health Information Service, and it's being kept away from the people that the law says can have it.
