The excess deaths crisis continues, with 795 excess deaths – 7.4% above the five-year average – registered in England and Wales in the week ending November 11th, according to the ONS. Of these, 434 were attributed to an underlying cause other than COVID-19, bringing the total excess non-Covid deaths since the wave began in April to 24,820.

There has been a lot of attention given to cancer deaths in the past week, which have been elevated in recent months. This is clearly something to be concerned about, and likely to get worse. However, cancer deaths are only a small portion of the recent excess deaths, with 900 registered above average since the start of September. In that time there have been around 11,000 excess deaths in total, meaning cancer deaths account for around 8% of the excess deaths this autumn.
Here are the figures on cancer deaths.

The rest of the excess deaths are largely heart and circulatory system related.



The current preferred explanation for the thousands of above average deaths in the U.K. is the NHS crisis and backlog. Certainly this can’t be helping, though by itself it doesn’t explain why a similar phenomenon is happening internationally. Others argue that post-Covid effects are resulting in many premature deaths, particularly heart related. However, such a phenomenon remains contested and the recent British Heart Foundation report dismissed it, saying “Covid infection is no longer a driving force behind the excess [cardiovascular disease] death rate”.
A number of experts have suggested the experimental mRNA Covid vaccines may be playing an important role. The jabs are known to be associated with heart problems and blood-clotting problems, and autopsies have shown that people have died as a result of inflammation due to spike protein in their heart. The current question is how often this and other serious adverse effects happen, and whether it is often enough to make an appreciable impact on excess mortality.
The recent autumn booster rollout in England has been conspicuously associated with a spike in excess non-Covid deaths, as seen in the chart below. In this chart, the autumn vaccine doses in the over-75s (the age group which makes up the large majority of deaths) have been plotted against excess non-Covid deaths by date of occurrence from the ONS (in red). The tight correlation is striking. The Covid death occurrences (in blue), on the other hand, rise and peak several weeks later, suggesting the non-Covid deaths are not ‘silent Covid’ deaths, as some suggest.

Here’s what the figures look like since February, with the autumn spike on the right hand side.

The Health Advisory and Recovery Team (HART) recently showed a correlation between higher booster coverage and excess deaths in European countries.

Correlation doesn’t equal causation, of course. But since the correlations keep cropping up, and causal mechanisms for fatal events are known, the possibility the vaccines are involved in some portion of the tens of thousands of recent excess deaths needs to be taken seriously and properly investigated by the UKHSA and MHRA.

So when the Fascist pigs want to terrify their own people, each scariant is deadlier than the last, including the Kentiscariant. But when Macron wants to score a point against Britain (how very novel for a French leader!), our Fascists suddenly find that the Kentiscariant is a tame lapdog.
Well well.
I am not giving Macron a ‘pass’ here, he should have resisted the enormous pressure from his ‘experts’ that sometimes make SAGE look like poodles. But in his speech he was careful not to phrase reference to the Kent ‘variant’ as if it was a ‘britsh/brexit’ issue, which is how most of the UK MSM and this article are painting it. This doesn’t help anyone.
I agree that the almost linear rise in ‘cases’ is more a function of increase tests than anything else, but its also reflected in numbers of hospitalisations and ICU admissions, again in a linear increase.
This is highly unusual behaviour for a virus. There is no explanation I have seen for this.
I suspect some of the numbers are very suspect, and are part of an attempt to convince at least part of the 50% of the French population that are saying no to vaccination.
If people will need a booster jab in September that’s billions more in profit for big pharma and another reason to reintroduce restrictions if there is a seasonal rise in cases before everyone has their booster. I wonder who is lobbying who to push the largely nonexistant dangers of all these variants.
Since viruses continously mutate, and presumably have done for hundreds of millions of years it seems obvious that the immune system would evolve to be able to fight variants of a virus as well as the strain that is currently circulating. Any organism that was immune against new variants and not just the old one would have a competative advantage and be more likely to pass on the genes for developing this immunity. This is another reason why it would’ve been better to allow the virus to spread among people at low risk of serious illness. Natural herd immunity is likely to be better than vaccine induced immunity. Sadly this is one more basic principle of biology/virology that the “experts” seem to have ignored, for reasons only they can know.
Not yet.
A few months ago someone leaked the contract. They can choose to make a profit from July, if I recall correctly
It depends on who gets to call the end of the emergency at which point
1. AstraZeneca can start charging market rates.
2. Authorisation for use under ’emegency’ provisions must surely be called into question ?
… which gives the rationale for continually upping the ante in terms of new Scary Fairies, and continuing the suppression of possible cheap prophylactics like Ivermectin.
They are experimenting on millions of subjects for free, whilst getting lots of coverage, that’s a nice win-win
Your link to the PHE study is hilariously, embarrassingly wrong.
It is actually the link to a BMJ study (March 10) concluding that the Kent variant is indeed much more deadly.
Please provide the correct link.
Yes – even in the report written by the “Swiss Doctor” there is only a link to an article in the Daily Telegraph. The study seems not to have been published (or peer reviewed) yet, and its existence is only known due to a press conference at 10 Downing Street.
There could be an easy explanation for increased hospitalization rate not accompanied by higher mortality rate. The propensity to admit could have been increased compared to the first wave ie less sick cases admitted. The health care sytem did not collapse in the first wave might increase “overhospitalization” ie doctors admit more,knowing it would have less effect on the system. Really the excess mortality and the the true C-19 mortality is the only way to estimate if a variant really is more dangerous.
The Swizz doctor is a bit leaning to van den Bosche scenario saying if neutral antbodies are affected as above could be problematic although they allude to something called T-cells immunity. But another study published a few days ago,again showed that T cells have a broad immunity incl. against variant.
One would bet that natural acquired immunity ,is the most effective T cells response as known by everybody pre 2020 and that an artificial immunity like vaccine can never come up to that level. The article above is down here

CD8+ T cell responses in COVID-19 convalescent individuals target conserved epitopes from multiple prominent SARS-CoV-2 circulating variants
This study examined whether CD8+ T-cell responses from COVID-19 convalescent individuals (n=30) potentially maintain recognition of the major SARS-CoV-2 variants suggesting that virtually all anti-SARS-CoV-2 CD8+ T-cell responses should recognize these newly described variants.
