Star Rejects Anti-Vaxxer Views After Voicing Disputed Covid Film

The "Taken" star has given his narration to a feature-length documentary that questions the legitimacy of vaccinations and lauds former cabinet secretary the political figure.

The Film's Contentious Foundation

Named "Plague of Corruption," the film is based on a well-known publication published by a disgraced researcher, who became famous during the global outbreak for allegations that Covid was linked to a faulty batch of the influenza shot.

Her collaborator, the executive producer, has also written books with conspiracy-prone radio host the Infowars host. He wrote online hailing Neeson's participation in the documentary.

A Strong Denial

Representatives for Liam Neeson have provided a comment strongly denying claims that he holds anti-immunization views.

"Many acknowledge that corruption might be present within the medical sector, but that should never be conflated with opposition to vaccines," the response reads. "Neeson is not, and remains not, against vaccines. His long work with the UN children's agency highlights his enduring support for global immunisation initiatives."

It noted that the performer did not shape the film's narrative and that questions about its content ought to go to the producers.

Key Themes Within the Documentary

In the film, the voiceover provided by Neeson features several provocative points:

  • It suggests that pro-vaccine voices have insisted on "blind obedience" to government bodies.
  • It argues that "medical science has become deeply politicized."
  • RFK Jr is featured saying, "The core flaw with vaccines is that they simply are not properly vetted."
  • The film takes aim at stay-at-home orders, claiming they caused severe distress that cost thousands of lives.
  • Regarding Covid vaccines, it cites a view that they were "developed too quickly" and seen as "risky trials."

Past Background and Current Issues

It also references a 2004 BBC documentary about clinical trials on children, which was afterwards the focus of a BBC apology by the broadcaster for editorial breaches.

In recent weeks, Kennedy called on the CDC to change its official position that there is no link between immunizations and autism spectrum disorder. This claim is repeated in the film, even with a fresh analysis from the World Health Organisation stating no such link has been found.

An Earlier Record of Advocacy

Contrasting the film's tone, Neeson has in the past voiced strong support for vaccines in his position as a Unicef global ambassador.

Two years ago, he described vaccines as "a remarkable achievement," adding that "The debate about vaccines in lately has forgotten how much positive impact they have done... It is perhaps one of the biggest human endeavors in our history."

The documentary concludes with Neeson's voice stating, "This isn't the conclusion of our journey. This is the dawn of a new chapter."
