Do Medical Complications and Lingering Effects Make COVID-19 an Unusually Dangerous Diseases?
In the last few weeks, as the evidence mounts that the infection fatality rate of COVID-19 is not much higher than seasonal flu and that most areas that have experienced bad outbreaks are well on their way to achieving herd immunity, the argument for keeping lockdowns in place has shifted away from the lethality of the disease and towards the medical complications and lingering effects associated with it. Advocates of a ‘zero-Covid’ strategy, like Devi Sridhar, Professor of Global Health at Edinburgh University, point to the complications of COVID-19, such as multi-system inflammatory syndrome in children and adolescents (MIS-C) and the persistent symptoms that some people have experienced after recovering from the illness, as a reason to continue with draconian suppression measures until a vaccine becomes available.
But just how many children are at risk of MIS-C and how many recovered Covid patients experience lingering symptoms? We asked an epidemiologist with a PhD from a Russell Group university and a retired Professor of Forensic and Biological Anthropology – both readers of Lockdown Sceptics – to carry out a review of the evidence and we’ve published their findings today.
It’s good news and bad news: good news for lockdown sceptics and bad news for lockdown zealots. For the most part, the risks of complications and lingering symptoms from COVID-19 are no greater than they are from the flu. So not a great argument for maintaining strict lockdowns – unless, that is, you think entire populations should be placed under house arrest every winter.
Here’s the section in their article in which they compare COVID-19 and seasonal influenza.
Distressing though COVID-19 associated MIS-C is, these cases have decreased from an already low population incidence and risk of fatality. While symptoms may persist in COVID-19 and may sometimes be serious, they are not typically so, and appear to measurably diminish with time, even within the short time frame of the COVID-19 pandemic.
In some years, epidemic – let alone pandemic – flu may lead to a broadly similar number of deaths to COVID-19, even given widely available vaccination.
Like COVID-19, influenza poses an elevated risk to the over-65s. However, influenza presents a clearly greater risk to all other ages, including children and adults. While seasonal flu leads to higher mortality rates at the extremes of age, 2009 H1N1 flu, for example, may have posed a particular threat to ‘working age’ adults.
Multi-organ complications, including myocarditis and encephalitis, occur in both flu and COVID-19. In both cases, these complications have the potential to be persistent and serious, but such instances are rare and may be complicated by pre-existing disease. Patients typically recover in a few weeks and where symptoms do persist, they diminish – if sometimes gradually – in frequency with time. The most persistent symptoms are predominately those such as fatigue, aches and pains, and shortness of breath and are not life-threatening.
It is far from evident that COVID-19 presents a greater risk of complications or persistent symptoms than flu and – given the demographic most affected – COVID-19 does not present as great a threat as flu to children and younger adults and the otherwise healthy.
Epidemiologically and clinically, flu may be as bad as COVID-19. In children, juveniles and productive adults flu appears worse.
This scholarly article, by two sceptical scientists, is worth reading in full.
Stop Press: Lungs damaged by coronavirus can repair themselves within three months, according to a study involving 86 patients in the Tyrolean region of Austria. The Telegraph has more.
Lungs can repair themselves after a serious bout of coronavirus in just three months, a new study has revealed, raising hope patients will not be living with debilitating symptoms for years on end.
Doctors said trials showed nearly half of patients in trials showed no evidence of lung damage at 12 weeks.
Although they confirm longstanding fears that Covid patients can suffer serious effects weeks after recovering from the virus, the results are the first to show that these tend to heal over time.
Are the Lockdowns a Vast Left-Wing Conspiracy?
In light of the evidence that you’re no more likely to suffer medical complications and lingering effects from COVID-19 than you are with the flu, why do public health panjandrums like Devi Sridhar seemingly exaggerate the risk to argue for keeping strict lockdowns in place? Cynics would point to the links between those experts and various funding bodies and institutions that are linked to Bill Gates and which all seem to be singing from the same pro-lockdown, pro-vaccination hymn sheet – and in Prof Sridhar’s case, they do seem to be pretty extensive. As one scientist reader of Lockdown Sceptics pointed out:
I learn that Devi has written a book Governing Global Health Who Runs the World and Why? with Chelsea Clinton (both seem to have taken their MPhil at Oxford at about the same time). Devi has served on the World Economic Forum Council on the Health Industry and is a member of Edinburgh’s WHO Collaborating Centre on Population Health Research and Training. Her 2014 paper in NEJM argues that “a renewed attention to lawmaking efforts by the WHO and the human right to health are crucial elements of progress”. In a BMJ Opinion article, Devi and Chelsea offer advice to the new director of WHO – Dr Tedros – who had come from the The Global Fund to fight HIV/AIDS, TB and malaria. Apparently, Chelsea’s doctoral thesis is entitled “The Global Fund to Fight AIDS, TB and Malaria: a response to global threats, a part of a global future”. HIV/AIDS is a priority of the Clinton Foundation, of which Chelsea is the Vice Chair (and which the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation helps to fund).
This BMJ paper shows how much money is involved: “…in 2017, official development assistance for health reached $23.9bn, and the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, the largest private funder, gave $2.5bn in health aid…”
Just sayin’, as they say… and I don’t wish to question ‘good works’ at all, but I do wonder why so many countries are doing the same thing and why there is so much conformity and so little resistance within the public health establishment itself.
So is Prof Sridhar promoting a ‘zero-Covid’ strategy for self-interested reasons rather than in good faith? Probably not. In fact, we don’t think that’s a meaningful distinction in her case or in the case of Neil Ferguson, Sir Patrick Vallance, Chris Whitty et al. Rather, we think they are capable of advocating those public health policies that perfectly align with their broader professional interests without experiencing the slightest twinge of discomfort. They’re not being dishonest because they have persuaded themselves of the wisdom of the safety-first, interventionist approach. If they’re engaged in a conspiracy, it’s an unconscious conspiracy. This quote from Robert Musil’s The Man Without Qualities sums it up:
And indeed the most coldly calculating people do not have half the success in life that comes to those rightly blended personalities who are capable of feeling a really deep attachment to such persons and conditions as will advance their own interests.
Influential Lockdown Advocate Benefits Financially From Lockdowns
For fans of conspiracy theories, this one’s a doozy. Thomas Pueyo, who wrote a now famous, pro-lockdown Medium post on March 10th that’s had over 40 million views and been translated into more than two dozen languages is the President for Growth of an online learning platform called Course Hero that’s just raised over $80 million.
Among the claims Pueyo made in his post were:
- The coronavirus is coming to you.
- It’s coming at an exponential speed: gradually, and then suddenly.
- It’s a matter of days. Maybe a week or two.
- When it does, your healthcare system will be overwhelmed.
- Your fellow citizens will be treated in the hallways.
- Exhausted healthcare workers will break down. Some will die.
- They will have to decide which patient gets the oxygen and which one dies.
- The only way to prevent this is social distancing today. Not tomorrow. Today.
- That means keeping as many people home as possible, starting now.
He followed up with another post on March 19th in which he claimed that 10,000,000 Americans would die if strict shut downs weren’t imposed in every US state immediately. “If we do nothing: Everybody gets infected, the healthcare system gets overwhelmed, the mortality explodes, and ~10 million people die,” he wrote.
Not just a run-of-the-mill bedwetter, then, but a kind of super-bedwetter. And a highly influential one at that. The celebrities who shared his post included former presidential candidate Andrew Yang, actor George Takei, Twitter cofounder Ev Williams, author Margaret Atwood, social psychologist Jonathan Haidt and Harvard Professor Steven Pinker. (Et tu, Pinker?)
Well, Course Hero, Pueyo’s company, has just netted $80 million in its latest fundraising round. Tech Crunch is in no doubt about why it’s been so successful – edtech companies offering remote learning tools have all done phenomenally well thanks to school and college closures during the lockdowns.
From a high level, the new raise is not surprising. Other edtech companies have also recently added on more capital to their balance sheets to meet remote learning demand amid the coronavirus pandemic.
But in Course Hero’s case, the new capital comes as a stark contrast to how the business functioned before 2020. After launching, the startup waited eight years to raise a $15 million Series A. Now, after going another nearly six years without raising venture capital, Course Hero has closed two rounds in this year alone.
Should we give Pueyo the benefit of the doubt and accept that he’s just another of Robert Musil’s “rightly blended personalities”? Maybe. But the fact that he hired a PR company to promote his Medium posts suggests he wasn’t just a disinterested blogger.
Philosophy Lecturers at Newcastle University Condemn Masks
We’re publishing an original piece today by Michael Lewis and Sinéad Murphy, two philosophy lecturers at Newcastle, about why they object to the the compulsory masks and draconian social distancing measures being insisted upon by their university.
As academics and as a university as a whole, our role is reasonably to examine and exemplify what is true and what is good, and to help our students to do likewise. This is particularly relevant for those of us in the humanities, allied as we are with the concept which, above all others, ought to have led policy responses to the virus, and which humanities academics should have seized upon immediately and promoted tirelessly: the humanity of the human.
Historically, the deprivation of the face and the refusal of contact with others (frequently in the context of virulent disease) have been the very first and most effective gestures of dehumanisation. And yet, now we are asked to imagine a truly risible classroom in which the teacher, and perhaps eventually everyone, is faceless, masked, and spaced two metres apart, so that all chance of serious interaction, human interaction – between student and teacher, but, perhaps most ruinously of all, among students themselves – is ruled out in favour of the atmosphere of the operating theatre.

Black Lives Matter Window-Smasher is Rich White Liberal
The New York Post has learned that a Black Lives Matter protesters now facing felony rioting and misdemeanour graffiti charges – after a window-smashing spree in Manhattan on Friday night – is a wealthy Upper East Sider whose mother is an architect and whose father is a child psychiatrist.
Clara Kraebber, 20, is one of eight people arrested Friday night after a roiling, three-hour rampage that police say caused at least $100,000 in damage from Foley Square up to 24th Street.
“Every city, every town, burn the precinct to the ground!” the group chanted as it moved up Lafayette Street while busting the plate glass facades of banks, Starbucks and Duane-Reades.
The protest was organized by groups calling themselves the “New Afrikan Black Panther Party” and the “Revolutionary Abolitionist Movement.”
Given her privileged upbringing, Kraebber might seem an unlikely alleged revolutionary in those ranks.
Kraebber’s mother, Virginia Kindred, runs Kindred Arch. Works, a Manhattan architect firm that has designed spaces for Columbia University and NYU, and worked on numerous school and business spaces throughout the city.
Her father is Markus Kraebber, an Upper East Side child and adolescent psychiatrist who teaches at the Columbia University Department of Psychiatry.
In 2016 the family paid $1.8 million for their 16th-floor apartment on East End Avenue. The family also owns a 1730 home — featuring four fireplaces, according to property listings — in tony Litchfield County, Conn.
Turns out, Kraebber was a student at Hunter College High School, a selective school that has been ranked as the top public high school in the United States. So let’s get this straight: a white member of America’s ruling class spent Friday night destroying the workplaces of working class immigrants to advance the cause of racial equality. The Post quotes a New York police officer who is justifiably outraged.
“This is the height of hypocrisy,” one law enforcement source who was at the protest told The Post. “This girl should be the poster child for white privilege, growing up on the Upper East Side and another home in Connecticut.
“I wonder how her rich parents feel about their daughter. How would they feel if they graffitied their townhouse?”

Handy Cock “Concerned” After Cases Spike
Appearing on Sky News yesterday, Health Secretary Matt Hancock said he was “concerned” after 2,988 new COVID-19 infections were reported in the 24-hour period to Sunday.
Mr Hancock said there had been rises across Europe, and that it was “so important that we do all we can to prevent that happening here”.
He added that the new positive tests were predominantly among younger people, but warned that this could lead to a rise across the population as a whole, because it had happened elsewhere.
He said: “It’s so important that people don’t allow this illness to infect grandparents and lead to the sort of problems we saw earlier in the year.”
No need to worry Matt because there’s been no corresponding uptick in hospitalisations or deaths. In fact, there were only two Covid deaths in the whole of the UK yesterday, according to the Government’s coronavirus dashboard.
Nothing to see here folks, move on…
An Australian Nomad Writes…
A regular reader of Lockdown Sceptics has written to tell us about his adventures in Europe as an Australian expat.
We left Australia in September last year on a European adventure. We figured we’d take advantage of my UK dual citizenship status before Brexit and our ability to work from anywhere as digital nomads.
I thought I’d share some perspectives based on our experiences since the plague hit.
We were based in Bulgaria living inside a city apartment with four children when the very restrictive Bulgaria lockdowns started. Contemplating being stuck in an apartment for weeks with four children and with not so much as a balcony, we jumped on a flight to London and got ourselves some farm accommodation in Scotland for a few months. We watched as the mask requirement for shops was coming to Scotland, so bought a car and planned our exit from the UK via the only means possible without a mask requirement on transport, the Eurotunnel. We left Scotland on the same day masks were mandated, spent the next couple of weeks in England and left just before masks were mandated in shops there.
We carefully selected our next “home” after lots of research (including your site) and arrived in Denmark after an overnight airbnb in France followed by Germany. It was like being on a different planet, no masks, no perspex screens, no one-way aisles with stickers on the floor, no social distancing. The first weekend was rainy, so we took the kids to an extremely busy indoor play centre, with everyone packed in like sardines, no indication of a pandemic except for a few extra bottles of hand sanitizer around. We took the kids to the aqua park, Legoland and Lego House over the course of a few days, again no indication of a pandemic except for Legoland we found a couple of families in masks and one of the rides closed due to it being in a small confined space.
On seeing Denmark weaken their position on masks, we planned our next move once again, and shortly after masks were mandated on public transport in Denmark. We are currently in Norway and much like Denmark, life is normal here. We’re considering making a residency application and our children will start school here next week.
We were considering a flight back to Sydney, Australia, however…
In their wisdom, the Australian Government has placed a cap on the number of arrivals into Australia each day so as to not overwhelm the hotel quarantine program (now billed to the traveller). A Facebook group has been set up for hotel quarantine and the stories in there are very depressing. In order to try and get maximum revenue on enforced empty flights, airlines are giving preference to business class passengers and those who are booking economy fares are being continually cancelled and bumped to a later date, i.e. the best chance of getting home is to book a business class flight. Some people have been cancelled more than a dozen times, and are still waiting after months. Media reports have the number of stranded Australian’s trying to get home at over 23,000. In addition to thousands of expats trying to get home, people who have been given special permission to leave Australia for a funeral, medical travel etc. and were only prepared for a week or two away, are now living out of hotels, running out of money, and risk overstaying their visas.
Finally, back in Australia our Government has announced that it may become a requirement for citizens entering Australia to be vaccinated for COVID-19, if a vaccine is available. We are not excited about the prospect of being first in line for a rushed vaccine, so we, like many Australians may have a limited window of opportunity to find a way back into Australia before being forced to make that decision.
Based on the trainwreck that Australia has become, we feel very lucky to be in Norway and that we’re not stuck in the “lucky country”!
Another Heartbreaking Care Home Story
We got an email from a woman whose father is trapped in a care home with a “no visitors” policy.
My father’s care home is still not allowing any visits. I know other care homes have allowed garden visits since June so it is dependent on their management but I am not surprised by their fear.
My poor father is very unwell, but my family will not be allowed to see him unless he is dying. They will hold the phone near to him so he can hear our voices. I am so angry I wish it were possible to sue the Government for causing this misery and despair to so many poor frail and elderly people at the end of their lives. Should he die during this time, and it is looking more likely as I don’t see care homes being less afraid until the spring, I will carry the guilt of not being able to support him during the last months of his life for the rest of my life.
This inhuman cruelty has to stop. The Labour Party and various charities have called on ministers to take urgent action to help care homes in England receive more visitors – more power to their elbow.
Stop Press: The Sunday Times ran a piece about this issue last Sunday and yesterday it published the responses it got from readers, all telling their own heartbreaking stories.
Postcard From Portugal
If you live in England or Northern Ireland, but not Scotland or Wales, you can still go to Portugal without having to quarantine on your return. Clear? We didn’t think so. Nonetheless, if you’re prepared to risk it, a one-week break in the Algarve sounds idyllic. A reader sent us this yesterday.
I have just spent a week in brilliant sunshine in Vale do Lobo near Faro. Great to escape the new panic over so-called case numbers rising.
It has been a delight to be on holiday where almost everything seems normal. Apart from mandatory masks in shops, very few people seem to be wearing the ridiculous things. The minority that do seem somewhat mad and apologetic – like people who go out in full storm gear, sou’westers and wellies only to find that the sun is out.
We have eaten out every night and didn’t notice any crazed social distancing. The restaurants observe a weird dance in which customers put on a mask to walk to their table then take it off and breathe all over everyone around them for the rest of the meal, before putting the mask back on to leave the premises. What purpose this serves is clearly beyond anyone’s understanding, but it is the law.
Meanwhile, the beaches are uncrowded and completely normal, with children playing, families mingling and no social distancing at all.
The bars are open, complete with live music and the mandatory groups of young Brits singing Sweet Caroline at the top of their lungs.
A great place to go and free of usual crowds. Seems like this part of Portugal is over the virus.
Lockdown Madness in Seaford
We got an email from a reader in Seaford. The country really has been driven completely insane by all the bedwetting propaganda being pumped out by the Government and the BBC.
I went down to Rotary’s Car Boot Sale on the seafront at Seaford this morning. As can be seen from the picture, all visitors were expected to wear masks, as were the stallholders. Numbers on site were limited to 150 with a one-way system, hand sanitiser, and no more than six people, including myself, chose not to wear masks. So conditioned are people that nearly everyone donned a piece of cloth to protect themselves from a terrible virus in the fresh sea air on a sunny day, where the risk was zero. Current number of detected cases in town of 28,000 is zero. Last death in our NHS Trust’s area of 525,000 people was on August 2nd. Clearly, there is a lot of fear about, if not Coronavirus.

Love in the Time of Covid
We have created some Lockdown Sceptics Forums that are now open, including a dating forum called “Love in a Covid Climate” that has attracted a bit of attention. We’ve also just introduced a section where people can arrange to meet up for non-romantic purposes. We have a team of moderators in place to remove spam and deal with the trolls, but sometimes it takes a little while so please bear with us. You have to register to use the Forums, but that should just be a one-time thing. Any problems, email the Lockdown Sceptics webmaster Ian Rons here.
Small Businesses That Have Re-Opened
A few months ago, Lockdown Sceptics launched a searchable directory of open businesses across the UK. The idea is to celebrate those retail and hospitality businesses that have re-opened, as well as help people find out what has opened in their area. But we need your help to build it, so we’ve created a form you can fill out to tell us about those businesses that have opened near you.
Now that non-essential shops have re-opened – or most of them, anyway – we’re focusing on pubs, bars, clubs and restaurants, as well as other social venues. As of July 4th, many of them have re-opened too, but not all (and some of them are at risk of having to close again). Please visit the page and let us know about those brave folk who are doing their bit to get our country back on its feet – particularly if they’re not insisting on face masks! If they’ve made that clear to customers with a sign in the window or similar, so much the better. Don’t worry if your entries don’t show up immediately – we need to approve them once you’ve entered the data.
“Mask Exempt” Lanyards
I’ve created a permanent slot down here for people who want to buy (or make) a “Mask Exempt” lanyard/card. You can print out and laminate a fairly standard one for free here and it has the advantage of not explicitly claiming you have a disability. But if you have no qualms about that (or you are disabled), you can buy a lanyard from Amazon saying you do have a disability/medical exemption here (now showing it will arrive between Oct 7th to Oct 17th). The Government has instructions on how to download an official “Mask Exempt” notice to put on your phone here. You can get a “Hidden Disability” tag from ebay here and an “exempt” card with lanyard for just £3.99 from Etsy here.
Don’t forget to sign the petition on the UK Government’s petitions website calling for an end to mandatory face nappies in shops here (now over 31,500).
A reader has started a website that contains some useful guidance about how you can claim legal exemption.
And here’s a round-up of the scientific evidence on the effectiveness of mask (threadbare at best).
Stop Press: The European Commission has issued a health warning about two different types of face nappies on sale in the UK, here and here.

”… could not be more important”… To keep filling the coffers, does he mean? Or to ensure that the weakest pop their clogs during the winter?
It’s true isn’t it. Plan B or lockdown and basically the political escape route has been “debunked” without reservation.
So Merck, original inventors of the out of patent Ivermectin which treats COVID19 successfully at tiny cost, have come up with a brand new patented drug which treats COVID19 at very high cost?
I see.
Sooo cynical. I wonder why?
According to Dr David Martin, Merck was in the vanguard of weaponising “vaccines” and presented their thesis years ago…..
It is actually different to Ivermectin, so it not only differs in cost it is also less effective and less safe.
Pfizer however are working on an Ivermectin equivalent, just slightly different to Ivermectin, so it should be nearly as effective and nearly as safe, just a lot more expensive.
Indeed, I have heard it described as ‘Pfizermectin’.
Why on earth would we shun cheap and safe repurposed medicines and spend much, much more on similar drugs which are untested and therefore could have unforeseen harms unless something nefarious is afoot?
Could be nefarious, but needn’t be – making lots and lots of money is good enough reason for a lot of people. The greed of some people really knows no bounds.
All the cynics above going on about effectiveness and safety – good grief, it’s making big pharma big money, what other effectiveness do you want?
I genuinely hope that one day investing in pharmaceutical companies will be looked at with the same contempt as investing in arms and tobacco are now. Just as harmful, but at least the others don’t pretend to be for your health.
I genuinely hope that one day investing in pharmaceutical companies will be looked at with the same contempt as investing in arms and tobacco are now.
Well said!
Well what happens if nobody is dying or becoming seriosly ill from Covid .A government soon out of work thats what.When everybody realises Covid isnt actually a policy just an event
Oh don’t worry. Governments are already manufacturing a couple of crises as we speak.
Supply chain crises, care home crises, health care system crisis (once they start cutting back on health care funding to make up for all the covid money – and they complain about staff shortages now), food supply crises thanks to ‘green’ policies. Here in EU land Timmermans is pushing ahead with his green plans for farming that he’s already been told will reduce food supply and increase food prices – what does he care, on 300,000 euros plus? And that’s not even going into people not being able to afford to heat even one room in their homes the way things are going.
Nope, people will forget about covid and look to the same useless lot to save us from the very crises they are wilfully creating before our very eyes.
Apparently the next pandemic is already in the offing, Marburg virus, a haemorrhagic disease with 88% fatality.
You heard it here first.
Ah, Marburg you say? Sounds like that needs a little bit of gain of function action, old friend. Lord Fauci can provide some labs in Guinea, Daszak and Batwoman will handle “the science”.
They need to come up with better names. Marburg sounds like a local hardware store. “I need to pick up a hammer from Marburg’s, dear. Back in a few.”
What happened to the scary names, like The Andromeda Strain? 88% fatality deserves an “Andromeda”-like name.
As a Jew I can’t help thinking it sounds a bit, you know, Jewish. Could cause some confusion. I’m seeing it more as a delicatessen. ‘Have you tried Marburgs’ gefilte fish?’
These observations won’t age well if there’s any truth to this.

Nope, I’ve been hearing stories about the imminent arrival (this winter) of the Marburg virus for a few months now. How TF do they know eh? I’m guessing there will be a new variant almost immediately that will be 99% fatal unless you get weekly jabs for the rest of your life. Which won’t be a long one, unless you pay for the top-dollar stuff.

Something nefarious is indeed afoot.
Nothing new about this; in the mid/late 1980’s onwards a US Insurance conglomerate “persuaded” several iterations of HMG, both Tory and Socialist, to introduce the “biopsychosocial” method of determining fitness to work; the DSS then DWP adopted it wholesale. A massive industry was spawned with ATOS then Capita hoovering massive
governmenttaxpayer funded contracts; the aim was to reduce the welfare budget – it succeeded in part only and many people died as a result.This US firm ( which operated this via its UK subsidiary and certain high level personnel were recruited from the DSS ) was branded a criminal outfit by the US judicial system and at one time was banned from operating in 15 US states for illegal practices not entirely unconnected with the above. After incurring truly massive fines and damages for malpractice, it still continued to carry out highly dubious business practices……

Revealed: Big Pharma’s hidden links to NHS policy, with senior MPs saying medical industry uses ‘wealth to influence government’ | The Independent | The Independent
“It’s good news that the Government is resisting the mounting pressure from various public health panjandrums”
Oh, c’mon!. ‘Resisting pressure’. As if. For the first time in 18+ months?
There’s that game-playing rat smell again.
As to the home-treatment pill. It seems to have waited until the jab crash and burn before the priority gets a look-in.
Leaky non-sterilising immunizations = never ending boosters = leaky non-sterilising immunizations = never ending boosters = leaky non-sterilising immunizations…etc,etc…
The plan? They need to get these mRNA vaxx therapies into the sub 12 year old kids group ASAP as it then accelerates these trans-variant-mutant breakouts, which then as they get taken home they rub up against the now defunct previously vaxx’d parents jabs…
Which then require updating boosters… then this pitches back to the kids generation then they need the tweaked new boosters… ad infinitum. Till the human immune system is totally trashed.
Now do you get why Gate’s smirking?
It’s why too natural immunity counts for jack-shit on a vaxx passport green pass.
The plandemic has always been about culling the elderly, weak, malnourished as it mutates – endlessly. Lockdowns if they come again equally crush SMEs.
Meanwhile the NEW NORMAL Zero Carbon mantra drones on, the undesirables of course being the carbon the globalist elite really want to reduce.
It’s SQUID GAME made real…
They’re stringing it out a bit so that “alas, with a heavy heart” they can do a more ruthless scapegoating job on the unvaxxed in a few weeks’ time – “unfortunately, due to people who couldn’t be bothered to get the life-saving vaccine and Protect Our NHS, we have to instruct you to all hide behind the sofa again in order to Save Christmas”…

Does he mean HCQ and Ivermectin are to be used under the cloak of a “new” expensive packaging?
Anyone not vaxxed now is surely likely to keep standing firm.
Was it all just about vaxports, all those avoidable deaths?
I see the msm news has been fired up by TPTB tonight, seriously worrying my anxious double jabbed wife. Bastards.
I have a theory that this whole thing is just a load of dodgy Chinese shit that the rest of the world have folowed somewhat enthusiastically without checking the facts ,Its not a popular idea but its bloody right .
I can only speak from experience. The area where I work apparently has the highest number of *cases* in the country. I read the notes of maybe one in ten of randomly assigned inpatient stays. Covid infections are rare at the moment, ie not seen one in two weeks. That may change, but cases mean nothing.As we know.
I know how many cases of flu were rerported in the week of 15th feb 1991 nobody cared then and nobody cares now we are being made to care about counting people in the UK who may have or may not have the “sniffles” Madness .What would 50000 cases a day even mean in real terme how many peope a day are recovering how many people a day are testing negative .All of that kind of thing could be helpful surely ?
Isn’t 890 admissions a week something like 1.2 per hospital, maybe I have those numbers muddled, I skimmed over the info last few days..
They show admissions but then they dont qualify with discharged, so if you go to A&e because you feel unwell, have covid but are not serious to be hospitalised the figures do not seperate this out, thus the admissions figures are pointless as they have no context. Yes there could be 890 admissions but 400 could have been discharged within 24 hours or sooner. But then the figures wouldnt look so scary. Also you could have gone in with a broken leg, or been knocked over, but if you test positive for Covid, Bingo Covid admission
whats the difference between the R number, cases and infections
One is made up, the other is meaningless, the last generally doesn’t matter unless it progresses
It looks like we are seeing ADE, unfortunately.
More, please Will.
If anyone’s feeling depressed about the inevitable slide into winter tyranny and discrimination, The Highwire will cheer you up. Representatives from OSHA explaining how unlawful Biden’s vaccine mandates are and how employees can easily stand up against them. Quite inspiring. It’s worth reminding ourselves that none of what they’re trying to do is lawful. They can shower us with lies all day long but they simply can’t force us to submit to medical experimentation.
The Highwire is brilliant, every week I watch it and it gives me hope. How I wish we had an equivalent to Del and his team in this country.
I recommend anyone who hasn’t watched it weekly to tune in on a Friday. Google will put loads of misinformation above it but just go for the
highwire.com
UK Column are this country’s closet equivalent to The Highwire. Quality journalism.
But the BBC’s Trusted News Initiative when it was launched last year described linking COVID vaccines and people’s freedoms as a “Conspiracy Theory.”
The BBC wouldn’t lie to us, would they?
Maybe Marianna Spring should investigate her own employer.
https://www.bbc.com/mediacentre/2020/trusted-news-initiative-vaccine-disinformation
Our freedoms were stolen pre-vaccines. I am not interested in your “vaccines” but I want this country free again.
Given the inevitability of a rise in Covid impact over winter due to seasonality, fading vaccine immunity in the latest cohort of vulnerables, the only question was one of the degree of tolerance by HMG of the political impact of this, and their fortitude (or more accurately – a lack thereof) in resisting the pressure from the usual media, scientific advisory and public sector monkeys.
So we see the parties laying the groundwork already:
– the NHS hierarchy and Ferguson all over the media like a rash, with the ‘restrictions or armageddon’ stuff, and
– politicians ‘resisting’ with suitably enigmatic comment.
We already know how this will go down.
Exactly how I read it. Good cop/bad cop (depending on your stance is on show). Portraying the illusion that the government are just reacting to events, rather than a pre-planned script.
And most people just swallow it.
Mmmmm Pressure to have a vaccine that doesnt work that well .How is that going to pan out but if it does work well surely you cant put pressure on the population for more lockdowns.Surely they cant have it both ways .The fact it doesnt seem to work so well is effecting the uptake .Which story are we going with here ??
“Let’s hope Boris can hold his nerve.”
Stop calling him Boris. It’s a stage name. He is our sworn enemy, not some unfortunate hapless victim of nasty SAGE bully boys. He is the Prime Minister of the UK.
Yes but only in name
He sought the role. What he does is on him.
He is Kim Jong Johnson
So instead of an experimental, barely any trials, lots of deaths and injuries quacksine…. I can have…. an experimental, barely any trials, possible deaths and injury tablet?
https://www.drugdiscoverytrends.com/early-safety-concerns-accompanied-mercks-molnupiravir-the-first-potential-oral-covid-19-therapy/
Thanks but I’ll pass.
I was willing to give this author the benefit of the doubt. No more.
Toby Young is either lying to himself or his readers
Denial
Kim Jong Johnson will impose another lockdown at the last possible moment and fully approves of the bastards demanding immediate restrictions.
I heard someone or quite a few people actually say that lockdowns dont actually work that well .Is this true ??????
“Let’s hope Boris can hold his nerve”
yeah. Let’s hope. Let’s also hope that gold will be found under everyone’s pillow in the morning.
Now, if the bloated Hell Service had been further bloated by the money squandered on trickantrace and snake oil, perhaps it would actually be able to care for a few more sick people…?
Assuming, of course, that a few GPs did the job they were paid to do, instead of whingeing.
Giving more money to that cowboy outfit would only result in pay rises for the ‘hard working, ever so stressed out’ management
Why would the government buy half a million doses of an expensive, unapproved, untested new drug, but won’t even contemplate using a cheap, out-of-patent, fully-approved, Nobel-prize-winning drug, proven safe over 3.2 Bn doses given to humans? Is this not the clearest indication of corruption and back-handers between Big Pharma and the UK government?
No ivermectin then?
I was quite surprised to be honest. I thought that they were going to buckle but they’ve held firm so far. Also the journalists are a disgrace. 18 months in and still asking the same questions! They were begging for restrictions!
Another lockdown will make the NHS backlog worse not better.
Just about every action taken from the beginning has made things worse, not better. In the beginning one could forgive them for not knowing what to do for the best. After a year and a half, with all the data that can be easily found – comparing places that used masks, those that didn’t, places that incarcerated people and those that didn’t, huge increases in infection rates after vaccine roll-out, increase in infection rates after school holidays, etc. – it is quite clear that doubling down (or is that tripling down?) on the same failed actions, knowing they will fail again, is completely intentional.
The only question is, is this because they have gone so far now that they cannot now admit that everything they did was wrong (in particular giving people a vaxx that may be causing ADE) and so must soldier on doing an updated version of Comical Ali, or is there a wilful intent to crash the economy and do some building back, better or otherwise? And perhaps bump off a few ‘useless eaters’ as a bonus.
This “incompetence” theorising is utter BS. Everything has been planned.
Agenda 21 / 30.
They are too proud & stupid to admit they panicked and cocked things up. They seem determined to prove Einstein’s description of idiocy – “doing the same thing over and over again and expecting a different result”. I’m putting my faith in the ancient Greeks: ‘Hubris is follwed by Nemesis’ and ‘Those whom the Gods wish to destroy they first make mad’
So tomorrow is the day they announce the vax id & hand out yellow stars then. I’ll pass up the carcinogenic poison pills,
One of these drugs, molnupiravir, seems to be mutagenic: https://www.bmj.com/content/375/bmj.n2422/rr-5
Isn’t it wonderful … the National Pharma Service now gives us a choice of blood clots or birth defects.
I’ll stick to a healthy diet, 3,000 IU/day of vitamin D and some ivermectin tablets are in the fridge just in case.
Sorry if this first one has already been posted and if I’ve missed it but really – where the hell is any cognizance of the Hippocratic Oath apart from anything else?

How A/ANY people in a formerly free country can accept such an outrageous, admonitory, unjustified, illegal, coercive and overbearing statement and way of thinking by one if its politicians or bureaucrats is completely beyond me.
Our ancestors died to ensure that just this was no longer possible.
Never mind what these tinpot government dictators want, I’ve already ‘ruled out’ any partipation in lockdown, masking, vaccine or NHS app madness.
I’m not playing their game, nor will I support, financially or otherwise, any event, organisation or business that imposes it.
Enough is enough.
Pic should say”Hell’s Gate” not Downing Street. Halloween come early.
Not sure if this has been mentioned but….
The Merck drug Molnupiravir is said to be as effective as ivermectin, but reports on TrialSiteNews suggests that not only are the results a bit sniffy but the drug works by inducing mutations in the RNA of the virus to cause defects preventing replication.
The thing is though that it will also cause mutation in DNA and researchers examining the drug consider that it may result in cancers in patients taking it.
There is no possible other reason for the trial excluding pregnant and breast-feeding women and men and women attempting to conceive a child – but we do not know if the EUA they are pursuing will contain the same advice (after all it worked for the mRNA spike gene therapy drugs).
The vaccines don’t work and never have. Anyone that has analysed the Pfizer study can see it’s a statistical marketing tour de force, deliberately ignoring in the PR blurb, an ARR of 0.8% which is essentially useless. Case rates, the number of which is complete fiction derived from unfit-for-purpose tests, was starting to flatline before the introduction of the experimental therapy. Worldwide you see cases immediately accelerate post vaccination. We have 1719 vaccine deaths reported via the Yellow Card system, which equates to 5.6 deaths a day from the vaccine rollout on Dec 8th 2020 and this is drastically under reported. This experimental gene therapy does not prevent transmission, infection, severe illness or death. Post second-shot blood work has shown a large increase in Granulocytes, which is indicative of autoimmune disease. The tanking of Lymphocytes, CD4, CD8 natural killer cells, effectively negating the adaptive immune system. We have Taiwan with more vaccine deaths than those from covid. We have Israel onto their 4th useless booster and the highest vaccinated countries with the most cases. Just say ‘Uttar Pradesh’ to any covidian and watch them turn ashen. We have a government that failed so badly in the early stages of the ‘pandemic’ that they thought their get-out-of-jail-for-incompetence card would be a rapid vaccine rollout. They now know the vaccines don’t work, although they can’t admit as much. So, we have the new overpriced Merck miracle drug to save the day. We had effective treatment protocols last year: HCQ, Ivermectin, D3, Zinc, Niacin, NAC, Quercetin, Vit C. The deliberate and aggressive suppression of these cheap therapeutics is a humanitarian scandal based on Big Pharma lobbying, greed and the underlying goal to inflict digital ids via the backdoor vaccine passport. I only hope I live long enough to see justice served!
Terrific post.
Nailed it.
First class post. Every politician or health official who has either mandated these novel therapies, or initiated policy which coerces people into taking them, must stand trial for crimes against humanity.
“Keep taking the tablets”
Brilliant post.
The tanking of parts of the immune system is is quite deliberate The reason is quite simple, the mrna would otherwise be destroyed by the killer cells before the synthetic mrna could begin to instruct your own cells to produce the intended spike protein.
The tanked cells include P53 aka the tumour suppressor gene and the TLR’s 3, 4, 7, and 8. these play an essential role in targeting cancerous cells for destruction.
Pfizer et al don’t put that on the side of the tin.
Surely even the dimmest sheep would be a teeny bit worried at the mention of the big C.
I have tried to post this in the G******n and the M**l (I know) but with no success in the G. (they know me ) and temporary success in the M.
Please try and alert as many as possible. Have a go yourself in the above “newspapers”.
The above is perfectly true. The key is the ablating of the immune response by modifying the nucleoside uridine by replacing it with 1-methyl-3′-pseudouridylyl.
Without this the mrna would be destroyed by your innate immune system..
https://t.me/robinmg/10288
Good thoughts and explanation that was new to me.
I just saw this video of Bhakdi explaining what happens later, the antibodies, leukocytes and killer cells will attack your blood vessel cells that produced spike proteins and the it’s game over.
“I only hope I live long enough to see justice served!”
This has *always* been my biggest fear. Not seeing these inhumane bastards burned alive.
Very well put! Superb post.
Savage Jabbit and Krazy Kwarteng have both said today that Plan B won’t happen.
So it’s a chuffin cert it WILL happen, because the last three lockdowns were a raging success if I remember rightly.
“People who are vaccinated against Covid are highly unlikely to die of the virus unless they are very old and already ill, a study in Italy has shown.”
The Telegraph reports in its deranged mania to get mRNA boosters jabs into everyone. Considering NHS figures show covid-19 has killed only 876 healthy people under 60 in England across the entire pandemic, and covid deaths are almost the same per 100,000 whether injected or not, shouldn’t the headline simply read:
“People are highly unlikely to die of the virus unless they are very old and already ill, NHS figures show.”
OR IS THERE SOME OTHER REASON HEALTHY PEOPLE ARE BEING FORCED TO HAVE THE INJECTIONS, SAJID?
The Telegraph is a total disgrace.
The Terrorgraph is the Governments own propaganda arm it spews out whatever Boris Johnson tells them to, The owners of the Telegraph are his bitches
Our government are a disgrace, Fact. Plus they cant afford any more lockdowns, only threats..
The Italian study cited by The Daily Telegrapj goes on to say:
“In contrast, the average age of death among the unvaccinated was 78, with those people having four pre-existing conditions on average.”
Yes, the average unvaxxed covid death is a 78 year-old person with four comorbidities. You can see why healthy kids are being urged to get their gene therapies. It’s clearly a very consistent and measured policy.
Will this law stop the government coercing and bullying?
“The government’s new coercive or controlling behaviour offence will mean victims who experience the type of behaviour that stops short of serious physical violence, but amounts to extreme psychological and emotional abuse, can bring their perpetrators to justice
The offence will carry a maximum of 5 years’ imprisonment, a fine or both.”
We’ve all been victims of it, chronically, for eighteen months.
Class action to be brought on behalf of 67 million people.
I believe the law is exactly what they are doing to us and yesterday’s new threats amount to psychological and emotional abuse.
Not quite 67 million people, Annie.
The following must be excluded
The above are the guilty ones. And I am sure I have missed some.
It is also worth remembering that there are plenty outside these categories who hold an ‘official position’ in numerous voluntary organisations (and other private organisations) who have failed signally to push back against this tyranny; not only have they failed to push back, they have actively colluded with this evil, tyrannical and satanic government.
Some of these people, but not all, have a valid reason or excuse.
if you are in any doubt of the moral deficit of certain MPS, I recommend you read Hansard – the alleged “debate” which voted NOT to rescind the extension of the Coronavirus Act powers. The statements made by some MPS are to be expected but please read what was said by some alleged Tory sceptics…..I acknowledge that the HoC was populated by very few MPS, a scandal in itself but I was shocked to read how pusillanimous some of these vaunted sceptics were in NOT taking the government to task in a far stronger manner.
Proof positive that Savij Jabbid is a puppet:
or could it be Klaus schwab
Don’t you mean a f*cking muppet..
I’m not implementing their Plan B at any point.
#I’m done.
”At this point” means we will introduce Plan B in the winter when the digital ID system is ready and we will be to trapped into lives of perpetual slavery. Texas anyone?
The mask doesn’t protect me. So wear a mask. The jab doesn’t protect me. So have a jab. The second jab doesn’t protect me, so have a second jab. The booster doesn’t protect me, so have a booster. The mask still doesn’t protect me after two jabs and a booster, so wear a mask.
The miracle pill will protect me, but it’s too cheap, so I can’t have it. Got it!
No Government minister is falling sick, no marching citizen looks sick, no neighbour around me is falling sick, no family member is sick. However, we now have two teenagers in our town dead 48hours after the jab. The funeral directors are commenting that more under 30s are coming through their hands than is normal at any time in the year.
Just when will people open their eyes and start to say NO to this corrupt and evil cartel that calls itself the Establishment.
Well said Mojo. And I’d have a hefty bet that your experience mirrors those of the majority of the human race. But the masses aren’t saying anything.
Global narcolepsy continues.
I have a plan Sajid Javid, it’s called Plan X. It’s where I eXit all this lunacy and eXist in a normal human eXistence. Free of government coercion, blackmail and control.
That Plan needs air time or advertising.
This whole ‘covid’ thing is predicated on multiple egregious self-replicating frauds. All ‘covid’ data are derivative gobbledegook. The only ‘covid policy’ we need is to arrest the perpetrators and principal collaborators, and put them on trial for their lives on charges of Crimes Against Humanity.
So Savage Jabber says “get your boosters to protect your freedoms”. WhoTF does he think he is, graciously suggesting we will get back what he and his spawn of the devil colleagues stole from us for no good reason?
And what will these so called ‘booster vaccines’ do? Boost our chances of catching the coronaflu or boost our chances of passing it on to others?
Boost your chances of visiting the crematorium a little earlier than expected..
Remember when the NHS served the public and Doctors didn’t campaign politically instead of treating you.
Well they’re gone. Get ready for another lockdown, it’s coming.
It may well come, but here’s one who won’t be noticing it..
Lockdown – what lockdown.. ???
Plan B will not be introduced ‘at this point’. In other words, more restrictions and Plan B will be introduced later.
Totally predictable, totally unnecessary, totally pointless and will definitely happen.
Of course there is no Plan B “at this point”, not with all the bonhomie and back slapping to come in Glasgow for some climate thing. After that is over and all the special attendees whizz back to their respective countries THEN Plan B is brought ” reluctantly, with a very heavy heart” off the table because of “surging infections”. Black hearted blackmailers have insatiable appetites.
If everyone reading the daily sceptic and its commentators agree to stand together and refuse to participate in any Lockdown or Covid guidelines or rules then we can and will break this ridiculous state of terror, but we all have to say No
I say ‘no’
I’ve always said no. And done no.
This pill, that pill from the usual suspects. Is there anyone out there that trusts these people any more. Why new drugs when Ivermectin and HCQ have been proven to work in the field..and are cheap in comparison. That last fact says it all really, doesn’t it.
Don’t forget, this lockdown, to
Save lives, kill the economy, take lives.
I don’t think the “resistance” is likely to last long somehow – so “for now” might not be long…
I’m sure he’ll kickoff with it all as soon as
Bill tells him tohe thinks it’s “appropriate” and he can get away with it…But why threaten only those who have already been jabbed to get the boosters? What about their real enemy aka the unvaxxed! Have they given up or are they genuinely concerned about the elderly here?
They now realise that most of the unvaxxed understand what is happening. It is the vaxxed who have been spotted as the suckers who will mostly yield easily and boost BigPharma’s coffers yet further.
I really hope so. This to me is very good news.
The U.K. has bought 480,000 antiviral molnupiravir pills made by US pharmaceutical company Merck and 250,000 PF-073 courses from Pfizer.
Why are we wasting more money on Big Pharma snake oil medicine that doesn’t even work when we could have dirt cheap Ivermectin and HCQ that have been proven to work?
Could be like the PPE, face masks, testing equipment, for the investors
“It’s good news that the Government is resisting the mounting pressure from various public health panjandrums to start reimposing Covid restrictions – for now. Let’s hope Boris can hold his nerve”…
Tell us another one.. I spat my coffee out when I read that..
After Brexit the supplies of food and other commodities are slowing down and it is taking longer to replace them – along comes Covid, very conveniently and the deaths start to rise in relation to the jab and if at first you don’t succeed, try and try again until you can whittle the numbers down even more through successive booster shots, which do work, by doing just that – how about a spanner in the works for vaccines:Nebulizer? Potti? Netti? I really don’t see the point – do my simple cure instead – 1 heaped teaspoon of iodine table or sea salt in a mug of warm water, cup a hand, sniff or snort the mugful in stages, up into your nose/nasal passages and if you get a sore reaction in your head, then you have a virus, so leave the salt water in your head until the soreness stops (2-3 minutes) then blow out your head with toilet paper and flush away, washing your hands afterwards – so do morning, noon and night, or more often, spitting out anything which comes down into your mouth, until you do the flush and you get no sore reaction – when you have cleared the Flu or Coronavirus and Covid won’t occur, ever.
If you think you have a virus, do the above treatment and you will know instantly if you have, not just for the Flu or Coronavirus, but for all other virus based diseases, for which there is no medical solution.
Me: 27 years never ill from viruses, bearing in mind that there are only 2 ways we can get ill from external sources,
1) breath it in, or 2) get a bite, like a Mosquito or a vaccine.
Don’t use saline solution a waste of time if no iodine salt in it. Gargling is a waste of time too, as you will quickly discover, when you do my salt water sniffle AND bonus, you won’t get Long Covid either, because the flush includes the brain bulb, brain stem and inner ears via the escutcheon tubes, which is really interesting to experience, feeling them get cleaned out.
Even if you have had the vaccines, do this when you get your initial head infection (before, or when you self isolate), which everyone will get anyway and murder the infection in your head, before it becomes Covid in your head and body – hence Long Covid and Pneumonia in your lungs = Covid.
Richard
”Surging infections”. Surging testing, more like.
It was always a clever plan to ensure doctors didn’t want to see patients, so that those patients had to take themselves to A&E – keeps up the ‘covid’ numbers, doesn’t it? Now, with the coming of autumn, more people who think they’re sick unto death will be off to A&E and bingo! ”Overwhelmed” hospitals – hence a great excuse for lockdown. And so on, and so on….
I work in a public hall and already the irresponsible reporting is having a negative effect on some groups who meet in the building with members not attending because of the media going all out project fear again!!
That means Plan B will be implemented soon.
