Allison Pearson has written a terrific piece for the Telegraph about the forthcoming Covid inquiry. She is anxious that Lady Hallett might go easy on some of the senior politicians responsible for Britain’s disastrous response to the pandemic – such as Matt Hancock – and that she won’t examine the impact on ordinary people and their children. Allison points out that you can still suggest things that should be added to the Terms of Reference here (the deadline is April 7th) and suggests six things herself.
- At a No 10 briefing in March 2020, Michael Gove said that the virus did not discriminate: “Everyone is at risk.” And yet it was clear Covid was a highly discriminatory virus; people over 75 were 10,000 times more likely to die from it than those under 15. Who authorised the decision to press ahead with a misinformation campaign telling the public that “all age groups are at risk”, and why?
- On March 22nd, 2020, a paper by SPI-B (the committee giving behavioural science advice to the Government) said: “The perceived level of personal threat needs to be increased among those who are complacent, using hard-hitting, emotional messaging.” Why was it agreed to use fear as a weapon to increase compliance with the coronavirus rules when the public were already showing signs of using their common sense and staying home? What are the likely long-term mental health effects, on children in particular, of telling all age groups they should be scared of Covid?
- Next slide, please! Some of the graphs shown at the No 10 briefings by Professor Sir Chris Whitty and Sir Patrick Vallance picked the lowest historic data point to contrast with the highest projected data point. Expressing data in percentage terms also heightened the sense of alarm. We need a thorough analysis of the veracity of every slide shown to the British people, please, Lady Hallett.
- In the Netherlands, at the peak of the pandemic, the Dutch health system lost only 4% capacity. What percentage capacity did the NHS lose?
- What role did militant teaching unions play in keeping schools shut for so long? Oh, and why was Gavin Williamson, then education secretary, knighted – for services to buggering up British kids’ education?
- And finally, how exactly did throwing a wedding bouquet spread Covid?

A good finishing off clip, given that Snow supported the offence himself, a few years ago, under the recent panic!
And what’s happened to Dr Wolfgang Wodarg? He’s another one that’s dropped off the radar for quite some time now. Especially considering how vocal he was in opposing the scam in 2009, what’s been happening in Germany with excess deaths, restrictions and the court case of Dr Bhakdi, the death of Dr Arne Burkhardt, for example. It’s like he’s disappeared off the face of the earth but he was a strong ally at the beginning due to his knowledge and expertise.
I can update you on Dr Burkhardt. His colleague the lawyer Elmar Becker spoke to our meeting on Tuesday, until the results of the post mortem are published there is only speculation about Dr Burkhardt’s death. His son is unable to say what happened & there was no other witnesses.
Re Wolfgang Wodarg, I have no news.
Yes I was reading some rumours around his death possibly being suspicious on Telegram but there was nothing really factual, just vague with no details, so I didn’t pursue it. I just figured that he was 79yrs so we can expect people to die at that age, but one thing I read said something about him drowning, but really don’t know about the circumstances. As for W.W, last time I saw him was yonks ago on the Reiner Fuellmich videos, but nothing for best part of 2 years now. Lots been happening in Germany to speculate on too so bit surprised we’ve not heard any sort of comment from him on anything.
The last I heard from Dr Wodarg was in December last year. Link to meeting he spoke at if you’re interested in what he was up to then. I can’t remember what he was doing but he is working away below the radar – safest place to be if you’re doing important work & wish to complete it before going public.

Whatever happened to Reiner Fuellmich and the case he was putting together?
One also shouldn’t forget the so-called bird flu of 2004. That was the time when influenza vaccines started to be marketed aggressively. Until then, I wasn’t even aware that vaccinating against something as benign as the flu was even being considered.
And then, all our pandemicists save some unsavoury but relatively unimportant figureheads are still hiding in plain sight, polishing their honours while enjoying their sinecures, smiling warmly when thinking of silvery rainfall into their well-filled coffers and refining their plans for the next rerun of The Great Pandemic[tm] which will then – lessons duly learnt – hopefully last forever or at least, for a much longer time.
The current plan as far as The Liar Institute for Global Change goes is to have an “always on” approach to “vaccines and other injectables”. They intend to have a constant pipeline of adult vaccinations to keep the motors running and the $$ running so that you don’t have to scale up in a pandemic, the factories are already there churning out injections every day for the masses anyway. They advocate pushing an adult vaccination schedule for every country as standard as well as “long lasting injectables” for high cholesterol and heart disease. They see “demand creation” as key, (through persuading governments) otherwise without demand they can’t supply all those completely essential jabs.
Wodarg was one of the sane voices from the outset of the pandemic. I remember in March 2020 listening to a 10-minute video in which he explained what the coronavirus was. On 23 March I naively tried to write to as many MPs as I could asking them to listen to the video and vote against lockdown. I gave them a synopsis:
“There are about 100 flu viruses. Virologists used not to be interested in having tests for them, because there were so many and they keep on evolving. Recently we have developed tests for 8-10 of them.
“Why did the virus break out in Wuhan? Because Wuhan has the biggest safety laboratory for viruses in the whole of China. They found a new type and announced it to the world. In Berlin, which keeps a global database, virologists devised a test for the new variant. A protocol for the test was submitted to the WHO, and because of the panic in China it was accepted without the usual validation procedures. The test (such as it is) does not tell you how dangerous the virus is. For that, you need to survey an entire population and determine ‘excess mortality’.
“In Germany 20,000-30,000 deaths are attributable to flu. Around 10% (7%-15%) of flu viruses are coronavirus. Had tests been done specifically for that virus in previous years, therefore 2000-3000 per year would probably have been attributable to coronavirus. (1) We are nowhere near those numbers at the moment. (2) The numbers being reported do not establish that death was from this specific virus rather than from the other c. 90% that cause respiratory illness.
“Medical researchers have a vested interest in talking such things up. They want to feel important and have political influence; they need funds for their projects. In my opinion, the idea that we are dealing with a virus that, without draconian action, will kill tens of milllions is unsubstantiated.”
Factcheckers stamped on his message only a month later and subsequently YouTube pulled the video.
These people should really be called Factf***ers (or maybe F***checkers).
Like we saw around Climategate (2008) one battlefield of information is Wikipedia, in which an army of editors ensure that the Wikipedia entry for any individual who dissents from the Official Narrative is suitably “corrected”, often with new smears and spin. Dr Wodarg’s entry is no exception. Just as a superficial scan of the edits to Dr Wordarg’s Wikipedia entry illustrates the point. Prior to March 2020, the entry was fairly quiet in terms of number of edits per month, and were largely technical or stylistic changes or reasonable updates. Then the attack begins. You can roughly gauge the nature of the “corrections” and the intentions of the editors simply by looking for words like “notoriety”, “far-right” and “misinformation” added after 2020.
For example (taken from Wikipedia edits, my annotation in italics),
See also “Climategate: the corruption of Wikipedia” for the trial run of the army of self-appointed “fact-checkers”, before the term was invented but after schoolchildren took to using Wikipedia as the primary source for assignments!
The evidence is now there that they do seriously reduce fertility in males, with large amounts of spike protein being produced in the testes. Never believe a word of Wilipaedia, nearly all of the content is wrong in many ways.
The hysterical reporting at the time convinced my mum that our family were in grave danger at the time due to a planned trip to visit relatives in Australia, so we all got the swine flu shot. Thankfully the 2009 shot seemed to be mostly harmless along with useless, but that was my last encounter with a vaccinator. Funnily enough, when we got to Australia people were barely even aware of this “pandemic” that was meant to be ravaging the country. Coincidentally (or not), Daniel Andrews was health minister at the time and the state of Victoria rolled out the harshest restrictions and also performed the worst out of all Australian states. Just a practice run for the Dear Leader.
Just waiting for the WHO to declare the HSV-1 pandemic.
What a shame they didn’t have a Public Inquiry after the Swine Flu debacle. The Establishment/Government might have got some lessons that they could have learned.
Or perhaps they did hold a quiet inquiry, and learned the wrong lessons.
The swine flu ‘pandemic’ was definitely an attempt to bring in all the things they did for the Covid scamdemic….I think just not enough people died for them to keep it going!?
They obviously learned a lot of lessons…!?
I have posted this before but my friend, a nurse at the local surgery, told me that after the swine flu vax was known to cause narcolepsy..her surgery used it as that years winter flu jab, to get rid of the surplus..she told all her patients, even though she’d been advised not to…as it happens no one cared…the sheep just took it anyway…
…this article in Der Spiegel has been much quoted..and shows they did really try to get it going……
