She's not a medical Doctor and not qualified any more than anyone else to make assertive statements or interpretations on data. Health feedback.org claiming they are non partisan is laughable.
At this point all that's going on here is people pointing to the team they prefer - so lets stop pretending you're posting factual information over someone else, and drop this pathetic argument from authority fallacy.
She's a part of IFCN. Worked for organisations that have received funding in part from Bill Gates, The WHO, The American Association for the Advancement of Science, a Singaporean technical university and the Singaporean Science Department. I guess in a conspiracy theorist's mind that makes her "far left". I guess in an anti-vaxxer's mind the opinions of anyone associated with government or or universities or who has been involved with research funded in part by big businesses should be excluded as they're "far left". That would basically rule out every legitimate scientist, and only leave the "truth tellers" huh?
Well let's see who else thinks Ryan Cole (a guy who specialises in skin conditions) and David E Martin (a financier and economist) are quacks?
Chief Medical Officer at a Hospital who's treated Covid patients
Multiple Infectious disease specialists and epidemiologists
Multiple professors and law specialists who debunk the claim the virus was "patented"
Stop pretending it's a 50/50 "both sides are equal" argument. There are legitimate medical and scientific voices. And there are quacks.
The "argument from authority" logical fallacy is actually what the anti-vaxxers do. Take the opinions of a guy who diagnoses skin conditions and a economist over the overwhelming body of epidemiology and infectious disease expertise.
