Brits should return to wearing masks in enclosed spaces and not meeting indoors, the Chief Medical Adviser of the U.K. Government Health Security Agency (UKHSA) has said.
Dr. Susan Hopkins’ comments came despite the moves towards ‘living with Covid’ across the U.K. and the lifting of all restrictions in England.
The advice appears to be in response to the recent rise in reported infections, hospitalisations and deaths.
However, the latest figures suggest the recent surge is peaking. Deaths also remain below average for the time of year.
The intervention is a worrying indication of how Government officials will respond should a variant or virus more virulent than Omicron appear. It suggests there is some way to go yet if the country is to move decisively away from the illiberal and disastrous public health policies of the past two years.

I would postulate that this woman is an unprincipled liar. Omicron and its successor, whatever it is called are mild, like a cold. As described by South African scientist, Dr Angelique Coetzee, last December!
What next? Will we have to be jabbed with a new gene therapy for each new virus that comes along?
Btw, she obviously has not yet heard that masks are ineffective and serve no purpose.
Off the wall …lost in delusion.
I think that it’s Chris Witless in a wig.
If she wants to live in isolation and not venture out without a Hazmat suit let the silly woman get on with it. But as for telling me what to do she can f**k off.

Imperial college that had a large injection of £££ from Gates. I have yet to see a study which says masks work. We here in Germany still have to wear our FFP2 or FFP3 masks and we have currently 300,000 ‘cases’ a day. Tests are still free. Full protection is wearing a hazmat suit. I’m sure some people would do that because they have been so brainwashed and have never bothered to do any research into the studies done.
Germany appears bent on total national self-destruction ” Finis Germania”!
Susan Hopkins and a parallel universe, Ive been in Marks & Spencer today, great to see plastic screens have gone from self checkouts and the cafe, apparently staff in each section of the store could vote whether to retain the screens or not.
All government healthwarnings should be accompanied by a healthwarning?
Just ignored.
It’s for the money, and for recognition in her pier group that she is on the right side, to keep herself in the circle of influence. Everything collapses in the end, and these people will deny they stated these things. The absolute hypocrisy of Whitty to state lockdowns are harmful, when he advocated tougher longer restrictions. Of course he says this now with the inquiry looming. Now we should get the 4th ‘booster’, it’s the same as all the other vaccines, and only lasts 5 weeks. These people are not medical professionals they have no morals and no ethics, the are salespeople for big pharma, for money.
Is anyone going to listen to this ignorant, arrogant, self-serving nowt?
(Is that classed as ”abuse” or just a robust description of her?)
100’s of studies now conclude masks do not prevent the contracting or spreading of the covid virus (Kirsch)and other studies conclude the damaging affects of social isolation on mental and physical health, how can an advisor to the public health department of this government advise people to wear a mask and socially isolate. Where is the research concluding masking and social isolation are safe? At what point is this considered dangerous misinformation? Perhaps the woman who made these recommendations could respond.
Sack this completely useless overpaid liar forthwith, and replace her with a school year 5 biology student, who would obviously have a lot less levels of bullshit rubbish than this clown!! Or maybe disband the UKHSA completely , then SAGE, then MHRA and JCVI…the country does not need these corrupt and utter pointless wasters dictating to us!!!
These people are all crypto-marxists bent on destroying society. They should be sacked.
Just “sacked” for plotting the destruction of society?
“Chief Medical Adviser” . So what happened to Lord Chris Whitty? How many more of medical malchiks are waiting in the wings?
He got another job
Don’t be silly. We’re not going back.
Susan Hopkins, has any one written to this woman to express your utter shock and disappointment in her recent remarks. When hundreds of studies have been published concluding masks are ineffective in preventing the spread of covid, that social isolation leads to mental health illnesses and that the current variant is even weaker than the previous variant. How is it possible that an adviser to PHE(new name UKHSA) be so unaware of these facts and proceed to give such dangerous advice.
When people like Dr. Carl Heneghan is recently banned/suspended on twitter for quoting a publication, and Susan Hopkins is allowed to advise on national news, to the people of this country information we know is incorrect, something is very seriously wrong.
I would like to suggest to the readers going backwards is not an option.
Outrage, anger, caused by another ill informed medical adviser. Who in the hell are these people? Step down now. Yes, the jerking of our chains is becoming more than anyone can stomach. We will not wear masks ever again, we will meet indoors and outdoors with whoever we want. People please for your own sake wake up. This latest version of the scariant is a cold/flu like episode. I know because we are surrounded by it in people ages 4 to 80. Two years is more than enough time sacrificed for what?
I would rather this idiot tell us early repurposed drugs for the early treatment of covid will be available over the counter for anyone who would like it. No, instead she is advising people to wear masks, which have proven to be totally ineffective and avoid being with people in indoor spaces. At what point will the UK recognise their economy simply cannot afford such measures. Fortunately enough people realise how senseless recommendations like this are, however, because we now know that social isolation, fearmongering, and mask wearing cause serious mental health issues, it is time to stop it.
So do they have some new evidence that Surgical splashguards have any effect whatsoever at blocking airborne respiratory viruses? If so where?
All the peer reviewed evidence I can find says ‘nope’, but anyone with the tiniest amount of wit would know that the warm, damp place between mask and skin provides a wonderful breeding ground for all types of bacteria and fungi. Right on top of their ‘open’ mouth breathing and nostrils. Yuk!
I’m guessing someone has seen their profits dipping a bit as sales of these nonsensical face knickers drop.
Far Cough,
She can F. Off.
Masks and lockdowns can be stuck where they belong. Up Johnson’s capacious arse.
Already stuffed!
Boris make public health policy doesn’t he. So he must be ok with this crap. Our work is NOT over.
No he does not – he is handing over responsibility to the Gates run WHO and the Vaccine Supremo himself! The idea is that Gates imposes Medical and Vaccine Tyranny on all countries who freely sign up. ( Johnson first in the queue of course!)
Worrying indeed. I hadn’t experienced such a level of control by government in my lifetime until recently. Clearly it suits their globalist inspired (controlled?) objectives, they like it, and will not give it up willingly.
We need to resist; not just for our own benefit but that of our descendants both living and yet to be born.
Well it had better start soon – they are on a roll! Only the Russians are not following the prepared script.
These unelected petty officials should have it written into their contracts that they do not make announcements unless the comments are approved by government and in line with current government policy.

There should be a new TV series “They are not a Celebrity-Gey them out of out of here!”
There is the very big problem looming of the May elections. Our town is already controlled by The Independents who have followed Government guidelines rigorously. There is little appetite for voting at the present. However, it seems the Independents nationally have more trust than the mainstream parties but the Independents could be just as bad as the mainstream when it comes to socialism and globalist control. I think we may be in for a whole generation of socialism or worse here in Europe.
The geopolitical map is changing and we know that Russia and India are more democratically inclined than Europe is at the moment. How they will deal with China or will they live and let live instead of interfering. It seems to me this whole destabilisation and now pandemic has been the brainchild of CIA using other countries to take the blame. The Western propaganda and bribery involving puppet governments placed around the globe is now in the open and coming to a brutal end.
Sorry about the profanity and abuse, but there is only one way to tespond to the likes of her. . .
