More Than Half of U.K. Population Has Received First Dose of Covid Vaccine

by Michael Curzon
24 April 2021 4:19 PM
Influenza vaccine injection. Injection into a patient's arm of the 2018/2019 seasonal influenza (flu) vaccine for the northern hemisphere season. This is a quadrivalent inactivated vaccine designed for intramuscular and subcutaneous injection. Inactivated influenza vaccines contain dead influenza viruses. When injected, these stimulate the body's immune system to produce antibodies that protect against future infection by live viruses. Influenza vaccination is recommended for the elderly, the very young, and anyone suffering from respiratory or circulatory disease. It is provided annually because of the need to protect against new strains. This is a vaccine from the Sanofi Pasteur Europe company.

More than half of the U.K. population has now had the first dose of a Covid vaccine, according to Government figures. Data shows that the number having received their second dose is nearing the 12 million mark, strengthening the case for the lockdown to come to an end. Despite this, the dominant Government narrative suggests that the current phase of lockdown could be in place for more time than has been anticipated in the roadmap, not less. Metro has the story.

Out of the country’s 66,650,000 people, 33,388,637 have received the jab, according to Department of Health figures released today.

A total of 11,623,671 have received their second shot, equating to 17.4% of the entire population.

The total number of vaccinations given in the U.K. now stands at 45,012,308.

Only people aged 16 and over are currently able to get the jab, meaning the proportion of the eligible population to be immunised is even higher.

Today’s update from the Government revealed another 40 people have died within 28 days of testing positive for the virus, falling by more than a third in a fortnight.

Data from the Office for National Statistics shows weekly infections in England dropped by a fifth last week to 90,000, despite the reopening of pubs and restaurants.

Worth reading in full.

So, now we know (if we didn’t already), these lethal policies increased deaths – and there is a protest about it tomorrow (Saturday).

I received an e-mail from The White Rose about it, with the message that the location was to “be announced”. However, I’m not on Telegram, don’t have a smart (arse) phone, so – is there any point travelling down from the North on the off chance for the London demo? And if I do, how will I find it?

Nb this survey does not include countries in Africa such as Zimbabwe, so it is probably not including many deaths due to starvation in the third world resulting from these (genocidal?) lockdown policies and restrictions. (And yes, I saw the article saying that “their” plan included deaths by starvation).

Yes! As soon as you get to a tube station, you will see others clearly heading for the demo. I come in from the west and always meet groups of people at the tube station. And if you head for Hyde Park Corner, you will not go far wrong.

The deductions these people make are dazzling in their penetration:
.
existing studies suggest that SIP policies led to a reduction in non-COVID-19 health care, which might have contributed to an increase in non-COVID-19 deaths. 

My bold.

And not only do they believe in the Ho,ply Snake Lil, but they obviously want coercion to force it into everybody.

The mouse that roars becomes the jackal that yaps.

When exactly did it become obligatory to have to have an ‘expert’ think tank tell us what we already knew before it becomes OK to think it?
At sometime over the last couple of decades or so the human race has lost its f***ing mind.

Not really: it’s still there but 90% of the population are now Homo Non Sapiens – those who find thinking too effortful!

‘Let’s be clear. The lockdowns weren’t adopted on the basis of any scientific research. It was pure panic and herd mentality from our political leaders and health care experts. They were idiots and they should admit their idiocy, so that we don’t repeat the same mistake in the future.’

https://healthy-skeptic.com/2021/06/23/lockdowns-dont-work-period/

‘The lockdowns implemented in the name of public health entailed trade-offs that were not adequately considered. Lockdowns may prevent some COVID-19 deaths by flattening the curve of cases and preventing stress on hospitals. At the same time, lockdowns cause severe adverse effects for many millions of people, disproportionately for those already disadvantaged among us. The collateral damage included severe losses to current and future wellbeing from unemployment, poverty, food insecurity, interrupted preventive, diagnostic, and therapeutic healthcare, interrupted education, loneliness and deterioration of mental health, and intimate partner violence. The economic recession has been framed as the economy vs. saving lives from COVID-19, but this is a false dichotomy. The economic recession, through austerity in government spending on the social determinants of health, can be expected to cause far more loss of life and wellbeing over the long-run than COVID-19 can. We must open up society to save many more lives than we can by attempting to avoid every case (or even most cases) of COVID-19.’

Unless one was dealing with a plague- or Ebola-like disease, it was always thus and very obvious from the start to anyone with an IQ above 50.
The net QALY loss in each lockdown country alone has been put by various scientists at multiples of 100x to 250x, and that leaves the toll of our lockdowns s in the 3rd world aside.
Britons will eventually have the responsibility for having killed around 5 million people there, on par with the Holoaust’s toll, Germans even more, Americans around 30+million people, on par with Stalin’s murders (120 million dead allocated by rounded up share of World GDP).
But then, maybe that’s the whole point of them anyway.

“to anyone with an IQ above 50.”

I think one needs to add something like,’ who actually used their brain to think about this, rather than taking the spoon-fed, nanny-knows-best approach’!

I have compiled a list of 41 papers evaluating the efficacy of mandatory restriction.

I have also compliled a list of the pandemic planning documents which were universally discarded when the SHTF.
Also included in a list of pre-pandemic papers is one from 2006, the one that started the whoole idea of lockdown. It was a schoolgirls science project in which she created a model for lockdowns. Daddy wrota a paper around it and got it published and here we are.

There are several other similar lists around, which I consulted. I believe this is the most comprehensive list.

39 of 41 papers found no measurable benefit or positive effect from mandatory restriction in comarison the voluntary action.
