Prepare For Winter Lockdowns, Says WHO

by Will Jones
26 April 2022 2:20 PM

The U.K. and other countries should impose moderate lockdowns this winter to stop the virus “just infecting everybody”, WHO Special Envoy on COVID-19 Response Dr. David Nabarro has said. The Express has the story.

Following the 23,791 new Covid cases recorded on April 24th in the U.K., WHO Special Envoy on COVID-19 Response Doctor David Nabarro warned British people: “Prepare for more surges” over the winter. “Hospitals and Public Health officers are already hard at work as they know what is coming down the pipe”, said Dr. Nabarro. 

Speaking with Dr. Nabarro, Sky News presenter Niall Paterson asked: “Should we all be looking ahead to what it might be coming down the pipeline in autumn and winter this year?”

He continued: “We have always seen that deep over the summer because respiratory illnesses are transmitted the same way”

“But should we be preparing for a surge coming later on this year?”, he asked Dr. Nabarro.

Dr. Nabarro responded: “Absolutely, my language is like this.”

He firmly said: “Prepare for your surges, prevent transmission when the virus is around and protect people who are most at risk.” …

Referring to China’s no-tolerance Covid approach and strict Covid lockdown in Shanghai, the WHO chief also claimed: “I think it will take a few months for leaders around the world to come together and work out the best way to deal with Covid.”

He continued: “Right now there is still a bit of debate ‘do you try to prevent Covid completely with really strong measures as applied in China or you basically let things go and let the virus do what it wants to do?”

Referring to WHO guidance over coronavirus, he reiterated: “Those of us in the World Health Organisation what we tend to do is say ‘look it is a middle path. That middle path is to keep that virus back and to stop it just infecting everybody because it can have long-term effects”, the WHO chief explained.

“At the same time, however, try not to lockdown the whole society, because the economical and social consequences are terrible.”

Mr Nabarro concluded: “And it is that middle path than more and more countries are moving to.”

Looks like the neverendemic has a while to run yet. Will they ever let it go?

Worth reading in full.

It’s like they have some vested interest in lying to us.

They do; just one project in their attempt to force the globalists plan for absolute control over us.

Looking at the graph, it pretty clearly suggests that there was a substantial decrease in ‘coral cover’, which has been mitigated by an equally substantial and dramatic increase, particularly in Northern GBR… has anyone attempted to explain it? Are the graphs wrong, or is there a ‘hockey stick’ explanation?

There does seem to be some correlation of the NBR coverage to the the El Nino events which peaked in 2017 and 2020 (two events).

I was reading an interesting article that seemed to have evidence that the Australian Govt grants annual licences for the harvesting of 100’s of tonnes of coral from the GB reef each year? It seems a rum situation if a dying reef is being butchered by Government licensees? One of the comments to the article summed it up well, ‘it’s like the world only has 10 pigs/sheep/cows left and in order to protect them only allows the slaughter of 9.”

The payments for those annual licences to destroy the reef are required to pay the US$1billion grants to protect the reef… such is the level of competence in our leaders, nobody can see the disconnect here.

I doubt the Moonbat will be writing anything positive about this. If he did, it wouldn’t get past the Grauniad’s editors. Maybe the BBC will cover it?

My 1970s schoolboy book of dinosaurs taught that as the environment changes those lifeforms that are better suited to the new conditions will thrive and evolve to take even more advantage of them while those plants and animals more suited to the old ways will wither and die off.

Case in point. Crown-of-thorns starfish mount an attack when the population grows out of control, eats all the choice coral, then dies off as it’s exhausts it’s source of nutrients.

Low numbers of crown-of-thorns starfish, the reef grows over years, as does the crown-of-thorns starfish which at a critical point, mounts another over population attack.

Circle of life………

Question: Would the worlds oceans be over populated with corals were it not for crown-of-thorns starfish attacks and regular bleaching events?

Answer: Perhaps, there are corals around UK shores.

This approach is routine for climate alarmists: choose a population that fluctuates, and then only report the declines, never the increases. They did it with bees, too.

When the data is going the wrong way for the argument, the right and noble thing to do is to fudge the data. In this case, it’s a big reef so this isn’t going to be easy. But I think I have an idea, and my guess is that it will have the whole-hearted support of the Australian population, who are well noted for their perspicacity and informed insight into such matters. My idea is to blow up the entire fricking reef. With dynamite. Don’t be squeamish, hear me out. We blow the thing out of the water, lock, stock and starfish, and then. Then what, I lost my train. Oh yes, then we can say that we blew it up to save it, because of climate change and carbon, and the reason we had to do it was because of Trump. No, wait, he’s gone. Because of white supremacists. Yes, that’s it. And there are others; they aren’t the only ones, you know who they are, you’ve spent years hating them. Anyway, where was I again, oh yes, Trump destroyed the Great Barrier Reef because he’s an awful person and also because someone said something mean about Jacinda Adern and also because Novak Jkokovic refused to take the vaccine, because he’s a coward and washed up and probably wouldn’t have won anyway and was taking the easy way out. Yeah, I blame Margaret Court also, because she had a tennis stadium named after her but refused to budge on her Christian beliefs so it’s her fault. Yeah, so blow it up, and blame the enemy. Take your vaccine and isn’t that Ash Barty lovely bet she took the vaccine.

I’ve.been following this climate change garbage for a number of years. Brought to us by the same ‘production team’ that have presented us with covid! The same template with a full catalogue of failed‘scientific models, abject lack of empirical data, emotional messaging and so on. Fake problem / fake solution!

‘We have the lockdowns to thank. This is how nature recovers when people stop flying. My best mate who is a climate scientologist told me there’ll be a climate lockdown in September if this promising trend doesn’t continue and he’s been to Uni and everything.’

If he’s been to Uni, he must be right, therefore it is imperative that every industrialised nation except maybe China ban all fossil fuels by 2025. Yours sincerely XR.

“Saving” the Great Barrier Reef…..like “Saving Lives” from Convid. Sounds like the Great Barrier Reef is in real trouble because their version of saving lives is poisoning murdering and maiming people with a genetic graphene bioweapon so when they say theyre going to save the Great Barrier Reef, we must assume that means poisoning it and destroying it.

Even St David (Attenborough) seems to be singing from the same hymn sheet. From YouTube: Sir David Attenborough On The Devastating Truth About Coral Reefs
9,691 views Jun 8, 2021

“Corals bleach when the waters around them get too warm, something that’s happening with increasing frequency and intensity as a consequence of global warming.” Three of the five biggest coral reef bleaching events have occurred in the past five years and half the Great Barrier Reef’s corals have already died. Sir David Attenborough narrates Breaking Boundaries: The Science of Our Planet, a new documentary that takes the audience on a discovery of planetary thresholds we must not exceed and offers up solutions to protect the Earth.

The lies published in support of the Great Global Warming Scam are simply amazing. Good that this one has been discredited but many more are still regarded as true by too many people.

Read Dr Patrick Moore’s very readable book ”Fake Invisible Catastrophes And Threats Of Doom” for an excellent refutation of the tripe talked about the Barrier Reef. And lots of other things (including the ”demise” of the polar bears, etc.)

I’m pretty sure they’ve been saying the Great Barrier Reef is dead or dying for about 40 years, but it seems to have enjoyed more comebacks than Frank Sinatra.

It’s a billion pound fraud… steal off the taxpayers to fund a non existent crisis. When the ‘crisis’ is over, kudos to the ‘scientists’ that fixed it
