UKHSA Provides Mortality Data to Big Pharma But Not to the General Public for ‘Commercial Sensitivity Reasons’

by Naked Emperor
7 March 2024 11:13 AM

Jenny Harries became a Dame in the 2022 New Year Honours for services to health. This was partly due to her role as Deputy Chief Medical Officer for England during the pandemic.

She went on to become the Chief Executive of the U.K. Health Security Agency (UKHSA) in 2021. This combined Public Health England and England’s NHS Test and Trace.

On Monday, Harries appeared before the Health and Social Care Committee where she was asked about the data around excess deaths.

She confirmed (around 17:15) that whilst the agency doesn’t routinely share record level mortality datasets that include vaccination dates, doses and co-morbidities, it has released anonymised, aggregate data to vaccine manufacturers. Apparently, this is for their own vaccines, to support obligations to report as part of safety surveillance.

However, Harries goes on to imply that Parliament and the public may not be able to have access to the same data provided to the vaccine manufacturers, for commercial sensitivity reasons.

We have released anonymised aggregate data to manufacturers. This is for their own vaccines to support their obligations to report to MHRA as part of the routine safety surveillance. But these data are commercially sensitive.

It’s good to know that data paid for by the taxpayer cannot be shared with the taxpayer. Data about and concerning taxpayers cannot be viewed by taxpayers, even though it is anonymised. But it has already been given to Big Pharma.

More confirmation as to whom these organisations really work for. Hint – not you.

If I’ve understood this correctly, the UKHSA is gathering this information exclusively on behalf of the drug manufacturers so they can produce the safety reports that they are obliged to provide to the MHRA.

So the UKHSA is carrying out this work on behalf of the drug makers? How much have UKHSA been paid to do this? What reports, based on this information, have the drug makers submitted to MHRA?

How much? 80-something percent of their budget, I believe.

I thought that was MHRA that was mostly funded by Pharma?

UKHSA

The core budget provides funding for the ongoing functions of the agency – though recognising that UKHSA is a new organisation, with a science and national security remit still under definition.

The 2022 to 2023 resource budget, for day-to-day spending, is £456 million. We also rely on generating an additional £150 million of external income.

MHRA

The majority of our income comes from the pharmaceutical industry through fees. For example, all Marketing Authorisation applicants have to pay a fee.

‘kinell.

I just did the arithmetic. £456m + £150m is £606m. £606m per year is around £1.7m per day.

You could do some good with that sort of money.

My mistake. Thanks for the info.

From the above, assuming they meet their external funding target, it seems to be around 75% taxpayer funded.

Unless Billy and pals are digging into their pockets to tip the scales.

I hope they are being well paid so we have to fork out less for such a useless bunch.

the bigger point is why ministers do not ensure the data is available to the public.

Perhaps the gov should have gone into a bidding war against the pharmers for the information?

Only joking

As far as I am concerned all information gathered and held by government belongs to those who paid for it to be gathered. That’s US, the taxpayers.

An FOI should be all that is required to release whatever information we want.

If they say it’s ‘commercially sensitive’ do they mean that “We couldn’t sell this to the public even if we included a free Subway sandwich and pack of Maltesers with each jab.”

Would a FOI request manage to extricate the info from Damn Jenny’s greasy hands, I wonder? I guess not.

Absolutely not Aethelred. This harlot doesn’t come cheap.

She might advise her agent that she is open to negotiations but initial gambits would end with at least six noughts.

The all-party parliamentary group that deals with this sort of subjects has written to the UKHSA and other organisations asking precisely why this data is only available to pharma companies and not to the public and independent researchers.

It will be interesting to see how that request, with Parliament behind it, is responded to.

If everything is still regarded as hunky dory and safe and effective with the vaccines, why the hell wouldn’t they be giving this data to every news agency and his dog?
Shouting it from the rooftops?

One can but hope.
The only certainty, sadly, is that she and her ilk will not face justice on this earth.
Sadly I lack the intelligence in order to adequately express the visceral hatred I feel towards such excuses for human beings as she.

Let me provide the words you are seeking, suitably bastardized for DS decency requirements…

The public interest test surely overrides commercially sensitive information in the case of vaccine harms. As a public body, isn’t the UKHSA supposed to be applying the public interest test? Or is that only if someone judicially reviews them?

It is perfectly possible to anonymise record-level data, even with the limited technical skills available to the MHRA.

It’s way too easy to hide info in an aggregate data set.

I want the MPs to continue pushing, but much much harder, the snivel-serpents have to know they work for us. Perhaps they’re stalling as they know a GE is due this year.

Senator Ron Johnson is also pushing hard on this subject. Hopefully something gives.

Yes, but can we even trust the basic raw data?

And now in Brazil:

Bill Gates GMO Mosquitos Wreak Havoc In Brazil (infowars.com)

and Argentina:

Argentina fights against vast swarms of mosquitoes blamed for dengue surge | Global development | The Guardian

Gates released these GMO mosquitos in 11 countries, but I cannot find a list of them anywhere. There has already been talk of dengue cases in the UK. Will Britain be next for his experiments?

I didn’t see that, as one article just came out yesterday.
Do you know the 11 countries Gates released the mosquitos in ?
