Before the COVID-19 pandemic engulfed the world, Dr. Lela Lewis was using her medical degree from Loma Linda University to teach people diet and lifestyle tips and basic measures to prevent, treat and defeat disease.

Now she is spending her time informing people about religious vaccine exemptions and remedies to help them with acute COVID-19.

“The situation changed for me,” Lewis said. “I formed a new organization called Liberty and Health Alliance in the wake of the pandemic. That organization provides liberty with vaccine religious exemption resources for thousands of people on their jobs regardless of socioeconomic class. That's the liberty side of it.”

Lewis, a board-certified obstetrician and gynecologist, was a hospitalist in the emergency room during the pandemic. She treated pregnant women who were severely ill with COVID-19.

“Suddenly, I had all these patients in the ICU, and that's not a normal thing for a happy time in life," she said. "So, it was a very scary time for those of us in obstetrics."

Pregnant or recently pregnant women are more likely to get very sick from COVID-19 compared to people who are not pregnant, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).

The Arizona-based physician was among the doctors who addressed the Novel Coronavirus Southwestern Intergovernmental Committee during a May 25 hearing in Phoenix. The two-day event, co-chaired by Arizona state Rep. Steve Montenegro (R-Goodyear) and state Sen. Janae Shamp (R-Surprise), was organized to investigate the state's response to the COVID-19 pandemic.

“Now in the post-pandemic state, we continue to have an ongoing issue with spike protein,” Lewis told the committee and its live audience.

In 2020, Arizona recorded 75,700 total deaths; with 25.2% of those deaths coming from heart disease, 16.7% from cancer and 11.1% from COVID-19, according to Senate data. In 2021, of 81,482 total deaths, 24% were from heart disease, 15.7% from cancer and 15.6% from COVID-19.

Lewis produced The Surge, Early Treatment, & Religious Exemptions; a video discussing COVID-19, vaccines, natural remedies, government mandates and religious exemptions to those mandates.

"We have developed something called the Post-Spike Protein Exposure and Treatment Mobile Medical unit to be able to overcome many of the long COVID and adverse events from the vaccine," she said.

Because she worked on the front line as a medical professional, Lewis was prioritized to receive the experimental COVID-19 vaccine, but she had too many concerns to submit to it.

"I believe God was inspiring me to ask deeper questions and asking questions is normal within the medical community," she said. "What if it's picked up by the serologic system? How long does the mRNA vaccine last? What if it makes spike protein for an extended period of time?"
