Most SIDS cases occur within 48 hours of vaccination, says expert

A retired police detective who spent years investigating cases of sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS) said last week that at least 75% of cases occurred within 48 hours of vaccination.

In a video posted to X Wednesday by activist and entrepreneur Steve Kirsch, the former officer — who identified herself as Jennifer — said she was assigned to the child victim sexual assault unit together with her husband, a retired sergeant. Jennifer declined to divulge her last name or the name of the “medium-sized urban area” where she worked for fear of reprisal. Her identity was confirmed by Dr. Ben Tapper, a prominent chiropractor and member of the so-called “Disinformation Dozen,” twelve dissidents the White House attempted to suppress.

Together, Jennifer and her husband spent a collective seven years investigating SIDS cases, which is when the death of an infant less than a year old cannot be explained even after an investigation, autopsy and medical review. Law enforcement usually investigates sudden infant deaths to rule out foul play.

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), in the United States about 3,400 babies die of SIDS each year. Though the bewildering condition is reported as “rare” it is also considered the leading cause of death among infants. In a town of approximately 350,000 residents, Jennifer would investigate three to four SIDS cases a month. 

“Probably an alarming number when we’re led to believe it’s super, super rare,” said Jennifer in the video.

One of her findings was that most SIDS victims had been vaccinated within hours to a week of their six-month immunization injections. Dr. Tapper says Jennifer gave him the figure of 48 hours as the most common window between immunization and death.

Jennifer was also surprised to discover that while investigation and autopsy guidelines for SIDS require looking at many different factors, there is one detail conspicuously omitted from reports.

“One thing that I started to really notice was that medical examiners would detail a lot of things on the death reports like if the baby was eating solids, or it had had a bath and had lotion on and what kind was it, and was there smoking in the home, who was on the house. They left no stone unturned. They literally would mark everything down and then they would stamp ‘SIDS’ on it,” explained Jennifer.

While it is standard procedure to include SIDS victims’ medical histories in reports, CDC guidelines for sudden unexplained infant death investigations list dozens of specific questions which should be asked. These include queries about any medications the infant was given; the mother’s smoking habits while pregnant; descriptions of stuffed toys, pillows and bedding used by the infant; history of religious, cultural, or ethnic remedies; recent hospitalization; and previous medical diagnoses, among other details.

“The one thing that they wouldn’t ever put down was that the child had been recently vaccinated,” Jennifer continued. “And I found that odd, because if there were ever any other pharmaceuticals involved, like a round of antibiotics or Tylenol or whatever, that was certainly on the report. But not vaccines.”

When she pursued this quandary, she found that medical examiners were not obligated to include vaccines because vaccine manufacturers are not liable for deaths and injuries caused by their products.

In an interview last week with Kirsch, Dr. Tapper confirmed that many of the informational package inserts for vaccines list SIDS as a possible side effect.

Jennifer also found that every single SIDS autopsy report mentioned symptoms, usually either pulmonary petechiae — when capillaries hemorrhage into the skin — or petechiae in the brain.

“People are led to believe there are no symptoms, the baby is just dead. But there was always symptoms,” said Jennifer. “If it’s just a ‘sudden death’ and it’s a mystery, why do we see these symptoms listed on the report?” she added.

Dr. Tapper commented on Jennifer’s video, saying that despite having left law enforcement she still cannot divulge her full identity when questioning vaccines.

“It has become a religion. You’re not allowed to speak out against it,” said Dr. Tapper.
