This piece by Karl Denniger need to be spread more widely:
“After the last 18 months I really don’t care what you advocate or advise. Nor any other doctor. Or nurse. Or politician.
You see, the folks in your profession lied too many times over too short of a period of time for it to be overlooked as “mistakes.” You’ve been caught, and rather than apologize and point the finger at who coerced you into lying (or even better, shivving them in public on TeeVee) your response was to double down and place your job and income above people’s lives.
If I can read medical journal articles so can you. But it’s not my job to do so — it is, however, part of yours. As alleged “experts” you have a duty to keep up to date on what’s been discovered and to be prepared to discuss and debate it. Dismissing such out of hand isn’t the mark of a professional in any field; it is the mark of someone who wields credentials as a weapon and deserves to have them shoved up their ass.
But now the joke’s on you. You’ve destroyed the credibility of the so-called “medical profession” on a permanent basis for a huge number of people, myself included. I’d rather go to a Voodoo practitioner for medical advice; there, at least, all I might get conned out of is $20 or $50 to sacrifice a chicken to a piece of rock with some feathers sticking out of it.
You, on the other hand, will tell me to go eat chicken soup for a viral infection that has a reasonable chance of becoming systemic and screwing me hard rather than debating the merits and risks with me, and then allowing me to choose from possibly-effective, unproved drugs that have decades-long safety records and thus, at worst, won’t do any more than the chicken soup — but on the other hand they might work. Indeed, while the so-called “gold standard” trials of tens of thousands of people in double-blind, placebo-controlled objective studies haven’t been done on them you have not demanded, as professionals, that the organs of government run those trials over the preceding 18 months and get the answers when nobody else will because said drugs are off-patent and cheap. There is thus no incentive to spend the half-million to few million dollars to run such a trial. The government, of course, blows billions on known-bogus tests and uses them as fear pornography instead.
Indeed you’re perfectly happy to shove Remdesivir, which a very large multi-national study showed was worthless and worse, on the data has a nasty side effect profile that screws about a quarter of recipients in one form or another, up my arm should I wind up in the hospital. The only “benefit” from that drug, on the data, is to the hospital and manufacturer in the form of revenues. Yet today, more than six months post-publication of that peer-reviewed study in the NEJM, it is still considered “Standard of Care Slaughter.”
We could also discuss shoving infected persons into nursing homes, refusal to call for isolation of nursing home personnel 24×7 at the initiation of the pandemic when we did not know how to control cross-infection at all, refusing to recognize natural immunity via infection to this day despite multiple large data sets proving it is equal or superior to a vaccine and screaming about massssssks — which all the way back to 1981 were proved worthless when used in an operating theater by trained medical personnel. Among the general public who are untrained and couldn’t maintain proper sterile procedure if they wanted to you obviously can’t do better than the results found in an operating room. That was a lie — not a mistake — and you knew it, particularly after over a dozen attempts to falsify that result were undertaken over the next 20 years and not one of them succeeded. Yes, it’s part of your damn job, *******, to read and understand those studies too before you open your crap-spewing orifice.

18 months of mortality data now. Last April there was a peak due to the elderly being denied care and euthanised with midazolam. Scary peak, engineered by medical practice. Witnessed by care workers and undertakers. Overall, by the end of the year total deaths pretty much normal. Until they start injecting the population.
In 2021 there was a big increase in deaths following jab rollout. By September, the weekly death rate in Scotland is at the highest ever over the last 48 years. Big increase in deaths due to circulatory events and “other”, with some fudged covid figues as well.
Why would we ever trust a doctor or politician ever again?
“Vast majority of US hospitalisations/deaths among “fully vaccinated”.
Here is my understanding of the UK situation (from yesterday’s news comments).
As for said “vaccinations”, this is my understanding about them. If anyone with detailed medical knowledge would care to elaborate on this, I would be interesrted to read their views.
In a four week period to September 19th, 73% of “Covid” deaths were in the “double vaxxed”. At the start of this period there were perhaps 77% of the known adult population who had had two of these injections (I don’t know where to get the exact figures and did not note them at the time) and 81.7% at the end of this period. As people are not counted as “fully vaccinated” for two weeks after their second “vaccination”, I assume that the figure who would count as fully “vaccinated” at the start of this period would therefore be the number of people who had had both injections two weeks before the start of the 4 week period from 23rd August to 19th September, i.e. 9th August – perhaps about 74%? A further confounding factor is that the poor and ethnic minorities are less likely to have these “vaccines”, who are also likely to be less healthy, and to have worse medical care. On top of this, these percentages are for the known adult population. Whether the unknown population is a few hundred thousand or millions, they are for fairly obvious reasons less likely to be “fully vaccinated”. Also, there are those with certain health conditions or who are very frail who can’t or won’t be “vaccinated” and are presumably more likely to die (because of their pre-existing health issues). Set against this is the fact that people in vulnerable groups are more likely to seek the “protection” of these “vaccinations”. However, that is less of an issue now with a large majority “fully vaccinated”, and all in all, it is not clear that these “vaccines” are providing significant protection even on their own terms (without considering possible non Covid health risks from the “vaccines”) if these figures and assumptions are correct.
Is that a broadly accurate summary of the situation?

That Dick has to go.
Such an unfortunate name ( wouldn’t you assume she’d have gotten it changed by deed poll, or is she married to a Dick?? ) but she certainly does live up to it! Dick by name dick by nature..
She’s a dyke. Dick fan Dyke.
I think she’s married, in terms of being legally married according to UK civil law, but I think Dick is her maiden name,
And take the useless Patel with her, please!
She’s already demonstrated that she can withstand this sort of situation, unfortunately – being the commander of the operation which led to the police murdering an innocent bloke ought to have ended her chances of promotion, but she still carried on up the greasy pole.
It’s bloody obvious to anyone with a brain for Christ sake.
Our so called leaders are responsible.
Jurgen Klopp says he’s not a doctor and he’s not giving medical advice, but here he is chatting rubbish about the quacksines:

Liverpool manager says vaccine is ‘not a limit on freedom’
The worst thing is that he actually still seems to believe the totally outdated and plain wrong nonsense he spouts here.
But then, he is neither the brightest cookie in the jar, nor does he have any morals when money is to be made.
He is the face and long time ad partner of German hard sell and total ripoff ‘financial advisor’ Deutsche Vermögensberatung, for example.
The German FDA equivalent, PEI, has actually just updated its website and deleted exactly that nonsense he bases his unqualified rant upon from it. Maybe someone an send this as a tweet to him. https://de.rt.com/inland/125142-wie-wirken-covid-19-impfstoffe-paul-ehrlich-institut-aendert-aussage-auf-webseite/
He has headed tooooo many footballs.
This from the Grauniad. The growing trend to demonize those who do not wish to be vaccinated
It is like drink-driving’: Jürgen KloppThis is only going to get worse.
I wonder how many of the doctors who refuse to see patients are actually worried about shedding?
I wonder how many of the doctors who refuse to see patients actually KNOW ANYTHING about the shedding (which might be coming from the jabs they have received money per patient for administering)
Issues about menstrual issues reported in The Netherlands.
More than 10,000 have reported irregularities in their menstrual cycle after the coronavirus vaccination.
Netherlands 17 million population. 8.5 million female. 1 in 850 affected. If 10 times under reported, that’s one in 85. If some are really too young or too old, you could be looking at 1 in 40 or 50. This is not a rare side effect.
From the crack News article/Renz study. Would explain a lot.
“Ethnic groups hit hardest: Native Americans, Hispanics and Blacks
Finally, a horrifying slide in the data set reveals that one of the highest risk factors for being hospitalized after being vaccinated is simply being of Native American descent. According to the data in this slide, Native Americans face around 50% higher odds of being hospitalized after being vaccinated, compared to other ethnic groups such as Whites.
Hispanics face a slightly lower risk which appears to be around 40% higher odds. Blacks face around 25% higher odds.
Why is this the case? The gain-of-function properties which were engineered into the SARS-CoV-2 biological weapon — via Fauci, Daszak and the NIH — target ACE2 receptors which exist in higher densities in targeted organ systems of many minority groups such as Native Americans, Hispanics and Blacks. This has led many observers to conclude that the covid spike protein — which is generated in the bodies of those who take mRNA vaccines — is a race-specific bioweapon designed to achieve depopulation of minority groups. Louis Farrakhan, leader of the Nation of Islam, has engaged in many efforts to bring this to the attention of his followers, for example. These data provided by the DoD / JAIC / Project Salus document shown here appear to support the plausibility of such theories.”
Reminds me of the saying in the US: Of course you can trust the government: just ask any Native American!
