Apparently, our wonderful NHS, the envy of the world, is in a right old mess. So says the independent report written by the independent peer Lord Ara Darzi after his independent and strictly apolitical review of the service. It may come as a shock to readers, but according to this scrupulously independent and impartial report, the main problem appears to be ‘chronic underinvestment’ since the year 2010, despite year-on-year real term funding increases from British taxpayers for that entire period.
As with most political publications, the report is more interesting for its omissions – for example, someone clearly forgot to mention that the independent Lord Darzi was a Minister of Health in a previous Labour administration and, until 2019, he sat in the House of Lords as a Labour peer.
I doubt many voters will be deceived by this choreographed political street theatre. As with the recently discovered ‘£22 billion’ budgetary black hole, most of the public will see straight through the spin. In political terms, Labour is attempting to ‘manufacture consent’ – first described by the influential American journalist Walter Lippman in 1922. Lippman described the process by which political elites construct the version of reality they wish the public to believe, by manipulating the press. The theory is based on Lippman’s premise that the modern world is too complex for any individual to fully understand. Hence selective presentation and interpretation of facts can be carefully crafted to justify predetermined policy choices by those capable of controlling information flow.
There is absolutely nothing in the 163 pages of Darzi’s report which is in any way surprising or novel. The publication is a data dense narration of well-known problems with few attempts to explain familiar glaring paradoxes:
Why does the NHS service consistently underperform on every possible metric despite huge budgetary increases?
Why does hospital productivity continue to fall, despite a 17% increase in hospital staff?
Why can’t patients access GP appointments in a timely manner, despite there being a 6% increase in the number of General Practitioners?
What explains the appallingly bad outcomes in cancer and cardiovascular diseases compared to every other developed world healthcare system?
What explains the disparity in post pandemic recovery between the NHS and our European neighbours?
According to Ara Darzi, these failings have nothing to do with poor management. Nor can they be blamed on the ever diligent and dedicated workers. The alternative reality presented by the former Labour Health Minister, suggests the problem lies in a £37 billion shortfall in capital investment because the evil Tories starved our precious NHS of taxpayer largesse. In Darzi world, as with the wider NHS, failures are always someone else’s fault.
Yet once the media froth has subsided on their futile attempt to blame all the woes of the NHS on the previous administration, Starmer’s ship of fools are left with a serious problem – the ball is now firmly in their court. As the self-proclaimed party of the NHS, voters will soon expect Labour to deliver tangible improvements in both performance and productivity – to quote Michel Barnier “the clock is ticking…”
Thus far, Labour have been long on generalities and short on specifics. Wes Streeting piously chants the word “reform” more frequently than Starmer refers to his father’s occupation (apparently, he was a toolmaker). To date, I’ve not seen a definition of ‘reform’ other than vague commentary about benefits of digitalisation, consistent with the prevailing delusion that ‘machine learning’ will save us from public sector profligacy and inefficiency. Irrespective of what the Health Secretary means by ‘reform’, there is a major obstacle to whatever plan he is hatching. I’m confident that the NHS workforce and their Healthcare Unions define ‘reform’ as consecutive above inflation pay rises, more working from home, part time contracts and enhanced pension entitlements.
And here lies the essential problem with the NHS. Despite the sanctimonious claptrap and aggressive hostility to criticism, the primary concern of the NHS is the welfare of its staff, not its customers. In economic terms, this is a variation of the ‘principal-agent problem’ –a conflict in priorities between the owner of an asset (the taxpaying public) and the person to whom control of the asset has been delegated (the NHS management and workforce). Taxpayers have no direct control and virtually no leverage over the professionals in the NHS. With a socialist government beholden to their union paymasters, this problem is set to worsen.
For example, when the incoming Labour Government immediately agreed a 22% pay rise for junior doctors, the Chairman of the BMA committee assured his followers that they could be back on strike to demand yet more money within a year.
The BMA General Practitioners Committee has advised its members on a range of “work to rule” actions designed to bring the NHS to “a standstill” and is threatening further industrial action in pursuit of an 11% annual pay increment. These two professional groups will not be the only ones extorting money with menaces from Starmer’s compliant administration.
The solution to the principal-agent problem is to directly align the interests of the manager/provider with those of the owner – in other words construct an incentive system which rewards the productive and penalises the idle. This would be my definition of ‘reform’ – a move towards a continental style mixed health economy, social insurance-based system which pays doctors per unit of work done, rather than our current upwards-only salary scale under which the inefficient are paid the same as the industrious.
Darzi, however, sees things differently: “Nothing that I have found draws into question the principles of a health service that is taxpayer funded, free at the point of use.” If he really is that myopic, the noble Lord needs to visit Specsavers. Of course, Darzi is neither short-sighted, nor independent. Stripping back the waffle and verbal padding, the single big idea in his 163 pages is the dissemination of digitalisation:
There must be a major tilt towards technology to unlock productivity. In particular, the hundreds of thousands of NHS staff working outside hospitals urgently need the benefits of digital systems. There is enormous potential in AI to transform care and for life sciences breakthroughs to create new treatments.
If I were being cynical, I might consider a state-run healthcare system with an annual budget of £165 billion a major business opportunity for large technology companies. Highly lucrative multi-year contracts backed by the British taxpayer would be a tasty prize, to say nothing of the massive amount of health-related data to be exploited.
A sceptical mind could imagine how such companies might go about lobbying persons of influence with a new government confronting an urgent political imperative.
Fortunately, we have an independent report expertly crafted by an independent expert to ensure that could never happen.

Comparing unvaccinated vs vaccinated (any dose) is the most obvious comparison
See attached chart showing effectiveness of vaccine (any dose) at preventing +ve SARS-C0V-2 test.
Negative effectiveness in every age group. And worsening effectiveness in all age groups covering ages over 18.
And just 10% of deaths within 28 days of +ve SARS-C0V-2 test in the unvaccinated and 90% in the vaccinated (any dose).
IMO the ‘any dose’ approach is very informative.
By this measure the vaccines are pretty much useless against Omicron, and were only offering low levels of protection against hospitalisation/death before.
The increase in risk of infection in the vaccinated appears to be a real effect — and is likely responsible for much of the increase in case numbers seen in the last few months.
And down to just 21% of emergency care admissions within 28 days of a +ve test in the unvaccinated vs 79% in the vaccinated (any dose)
In relation to rising hospitalisations not yet apparent in the UKHSA data because it is based on the 4 weeks prior to the report:
Looking at the official NHS primary care supplement that goes up to 8th March shows us (if we look at the far right of the chart) that the small increase in hospitalisations is being mainly driven by increases in +ve tests for those ‘with covid’ rather than those being treated ‘for covid’ (their definition not mine). That’s why the % treated ‘for covid’, the purple line in the chart is falling.
I’m sorry, Amanuensis – that can’t possibly be right.
Here in Oz (where political wizards dwell), triple “vaccination” is required and unvaxxed are severely restricted because we might kill people by breathing on them.
This is to save us all from Omicron, you understand.
The “Cult of Unreason “has arrived we are utterly lost!
You cant reason a person out of a position which they didnt reason themselves into.
Excellent!
That absolutely nails it!
Well being in Oz all the above graphs will be the other way up, showing great success.
Don’t tell them that! God help us – that’s exactly what they’ll do (explaining their mistake on page 72).
Everything is dangerous in Australia. I once went on a hike in the country to the north of Adelaide — before I could go my boss stopped me and arranged for me to have instructions in ”how not to die‘ with a contemporary of Les Hiddens (was a Major too, IIRC). I didn’t die on that hike, which just goes to show how important that advice was.
You’d think that being in a land where everything was dangerous would make for tough people, but I think that it has bred a fair proportion of the population that has a dependence on the state to help them not to die on a daily basis. Of course there are many in Australia that are perfectly capable of managing to not die without state assistance; I imagine that those individuals have had a tough time time over the last two years.
Australia is heavily urbanised. The tough people, I suspect, are those who live in the sparsely populated (towns, villages, farms of the) bush, because life there can be tough.
Indeed it is – but it seems more generational than geographical. Australian suburbia used to be a helluva lot tougher – even in the late 20th century.
There is a section of the population wondering what the hell happened.
A people who joked about deadly snakes and spiders (while making sure they could recognise one if they saw it) have been scared witless by COVID, of all things.
This has been very sudden – and is deeply shocking to many. I have never seen such unreasoning fear or such extraordinary compliance with an officialdom we also joked about. We’re not laughing anymore.
No surprises here for the “Awake” – sheep still snoring inside their useless masks .
Happy to report getting fewer – even in Waitrose!
Duck and Cover
Meanwhile the CDC is putting out new materials about how to act in a radiation emergency.
To be honest, this whole business about hiding from a nuclear event has puzzled me for years. How in the hell is hiding under a desk going to save one from a nuclear explosion?
Anyway, I digress. At this point, everything is so surreal that it’s impossible to tell when the officials are serious, when they are saying dramatic things to justify their budget, and when they work with psychologists to make the population scared and timid. In any case, check out Duck’n’Cover 2.0:
https://tessa.substack.com/p/its-duck-and-cover-all-over-again?s=r
Duck & cover. It makes some sense, but is poorly explained in keeping with ‘do as we tell you’ approach.
It depends how far you are away from the detonation. Most initial damage, trauma is caused by heat. In the immediate radius everything is vaporised, then a bigger radius is blast damage. So if you are miles away and standing in front of a window, for example, a few seconds after the flash you will be shredded by flying glass and/or buried under masonry.
Being low down and under something sturdy is not a bad idea.
Just wear a mask right? Or do you want to kill granny with your radiation breath?
The CDC’s advice is so funny. Municipal water may be contaminated so … take a shower to wash off the radiation. If you can’t have a shower, basically use a wet wipe. Don’t go out, but store your irradiated clothes out of the way. [Where? Like, in your kids bedroom?] If you can’t change your clothes, take them off, shake them or brush them [but no need to hoover the carpet, eh?] WHILE WEARING A MASK [knew that advice would be there, lol]. Oh, and use hair conditioner at your peril: “radioactive material will stick to your hair”.
The cdc is another one of our institutions in the USA that needs to be deleted and rebuilt from the ground up by brighter minds than the current ones. They have lied, obfuscated and committed crimes against humanity.
The office-shy triple vaccinated are still busily testing themselves multiple times per week. My boss was out last week because he “tested positive”. No symptoms at all.
Just had a message from another colleague who’s managed to do the same so will be out this week. Of course he’s encouraging everyone else who was in last week to go out and test so no doubt we’ll see a few more positives popping up.
morons the lot of them.
All the real science tells them that PCR tests are a fraud – but they just can’t get it – we are truly lost aren’t we?
UnIversal fear propaganda and the suppression of all alternative views is so much more effective than we ever realised.
It seems they have crushed the search for truth, common sense and reason for a very large part of out population – the future looks grim.
The majority will be begging for more injections, universal surveillance, digital passes and the ‘Great Reset’!
The motto of RT is ‘Question More’ – no wonder they wanted it banned!
https://ourdecisiontoo.com/Issue/there-s-nothing-left-to-do-but-go-our-separate-ways/320
The suppression of alternative views is the killer in all of this. In Oz, people put slips of paper in letterboxes, in the hope that some will read them.
Everywhere (from what I can gather in un-splendid isolation), questioning voices have been turned into “noises off”.
Somebody’s saying something about the “vaccines” being dangerous, but that can’t be. If there were even the possibility of that, it would be on the telly.
Opposition parties aren’t: they’re a chorus, usually trying to out-sing the governments they’re supposed to be holding to account.
Yes …sadly the “Stalingrad Moment” to turn the tide currently seems far away, lost in the imagination’s false optimism.
It is not an easy thing to deal with determined, at least moderately coordinated and immoderately well-resourced liars, with no moral scruples.
They are injecting children under the age of five, and they have convinced their parents to line up and offer them..
We seem to be surrounded by Evil!
It is interesting that some Aussie quack is now ‘certain’ that Shane Warne died of a heart attack brought in by him having 2 or 3 “cases” of Wu Flu.
Then “of course his life style was a major factor” he was a smoker!
So there stop smoking and get your boosters.
No mention of mycarditis which so far has killed over 600 known healthy fit young athletes due to this New world order nectar injections.
I think we are into obsessive compulsive disorder territory.
The Michie psyop has clearly stewed the brains of 70% of the population, who have simply now switched from “Covid Fear” to the “Russia/ Putin Hate” propaganda mode without a pause .
It seems that the evil manipulators and abusers of Behavioural Psychology can now get them all to believe anything they choose and produce a Pavlovian reaction on cue – foaming at the mouth for good measure.
Masterful use of mass deception, hypnotism and control psychology !
David too true.
If you can spare a minute, Sundance over at The Conservativetreehouse has a great piece on propaganda this morning.
Lord HaHa and Saddam’s propaganda Guy are now old hat.
I strongly suspect I have Omicron at the moment as I have symptoms and a family member tested positive. Minor cold at best. For example, it wouldn’t stop me from going to the gym if it was a gym going day today. Not going to test myself. If I feel unwell I’ll work from home, if I feel fine I’ll go in to the office.
At my kids school almost half the class is off. They were all on zoom for a chat the other day and none of them seem unwell. Bouncing around on the screen, no hoarse voices even. I know for a fact that many parents test their kids every single day. Idiotic.
Abusive, rather than simply idiotic.
They’ve created a type of OCD in these people.
IMO there is a need for a period of psychological assistance for many in the population to get over their irrational fear. You’d could imagine that over a three month period they could get people to move from zoom-meetings, socially distanced meetings in the church hall, small gatherings in the corner of the church hall (no more than six!) and by the end of the programme they could all go down the pub and laugh about how silly they’d been.
Increased strokes due to climate change! Actually I think you will find it’s ‘Increased strokes due to existential worry about nuclear war’. Was going to suggest you couldn’t make it up – but, obviously, you could make it up (somebody did).
Also increased strokes when going 2 nil down at football match. A lot of teams are not defending well lately
Watching the BBC News causes strokes – all viewers should make their will and arrange their funerals as advised by all Day Time TV advertising .

What about the symbiotic relationship between the infection and the vaccines?
After all, both involve billions of Covid Spike Proteins or fragments circulating in the body don’t they ( only thing is that the injections are designed to get them right into your cells, by- passing your immune system, to reproduce themselves!)
Anyone just a teeny bit curious?
It is a very interesting point. There doesn’t seem to be much discussion (in the mainstream press) about the pathogenicity of the spike protein.
Personally, I think the main problem lies with the immune response to the virus and how this is modulated by the vaccines; we’re training the immune system to consider that covid is a systemic disease that results in very high levels of spike protein (only) in the body and thus it uses a very high IgG antibody response. This could result in autoimmune side effects, but as far as the immune system is concerned it it ‘worth it’ because each vaccine dose tells it that the problem is very serious. The downstream consequences of this are unclear.
Very informative – thanks for this!
They might be unclear, but what is not unclear is that have to be downsides. The more you jab the more you at the very least inhibit the usual operations of the immune system, and at the worst you destroy it.
100%.
If things are unclear you try to clarify. You don’t proceed and hope for the best.
O/T oh dear, Russia few allies, Ukrain no Partisans.
Day 14, Russian advance slowing down ?
Russian advance has been slowing down since day 1. Soon they’ll be meeting themselves coming back.
Similar to the ‘less seriousness’ caused by the vaccines, after a few more doses CoVid will be so ‘less serious’ it will result in immunity to death.
How can you tell when you do not know what their objectives or orders are?
Do you expect the Russians to take cities by force, those occupied by Ukrainian Azov brigade units, hiding behind civilians and so cause massive civilian casualties ?
If so you will wait a long time.
At present their focus is on clearing the US/ CIA illegal Biolabs all over the country and putting the facts and documents before the UN Security Council.
“how can you tell . . . ?”
I can’t, hence ” ? “
If I had to guess i’d say that it looked like the establishment of a base-position to allow logistics to catch up, followed by a country scale pincer movement up the Dnieper to capture the whole of Eastern Ukraine. I’m not sure they want western Ukraine.
Forces to the south look like they want Odessa (oblast and city). Transnistria might as well be Russian already, which would probably have some impact on this.
Odessa matters to Russians, strategically and culturally.
I know with certainty that everyone I know personally who has three jabs will just as eagerly roll up their sleeves for fourth jab and even a fifth if required – they will do so without asking a single question. I’m not sure whether its naivety or just plain stupidity … probably a bit of both. They don’t understand why I haven’t had the jab yet – they seem to associate having the covid jab as like having the flu jab when its nothing of the sort – two totally different vaccines.
mRNA is only a “vaccine” if you’re reading the dictionary they updated to give mRNA injection as a subsidiary definition for “vaccine”.
However, following the Operation Armshot sh*t show, I am much more questioning of ‘flu vaccines.
The (net) protection offered by the flu jab isn’t as simple as is usually portrayed. The data seem to suggest that in younger people we do find that the flu jab reduces infection risk, but that this isn’t found (to a significant effect) in older (>65) individuals — it helps the people that don’t need help and doesn’t help the people that do. Ie, what’s the point of it all?
This is a good paper on the situation: https://doi.org/10.1016/j.vaccine.2009.07.008
There’s actually an interesting section in that paper:
I believe that this effect applies to the covid vaccinations as well, and likely explains much of the supposed benefits of the them in protecting against hospitalisation and death.
I have never taken a flu vaccine – and have not had anything even approaching the flu for almost 30 years.
I had a friend – worked outdoors all his life – took a flu vaccine for the first time five years ago – ill for two weeks, said he had never been so ill in his life!
Nobody in my immediate family takes flu vaccines – and we don’t get the flu. We try telling our cousins that they’re safe too (it’s in the genes!), but they get jabbed every winter and … get the flu.
I suppose the answer to the first question is “profit”, to justify it’s development in the trade.
My money is on stupidity. There is far, far more of it about than I ever considered prior to 2020 – it is now endemic.
Yes – one of the biggest shocks has surely been the extraordinary level of mass stupidity and compliance – which in effect has allowed all this to happen!.
It is a quasi-religious belief. These people have faith, and it isn’t simple to challenge faith with logic.
It’s not even quasi-religious, it’s just religious. The instinct for faith-based ritual as a means of dealing with the anxiety of unmitigatable risk is hard-wired in the human mind (and is even present to some extent in higher primates according to some research).
You can’t remove it – you just change its focus; in this case from believing a magic sky-man will give you control of the uncontrollable if you make sacrifices, wear his symbol and believe in his omnipotence, to believing scientists can stop you dying and change the world’s weather, if you sacrifice your wealth and freedom, wear their masks and refuse to accept any fallibility on their part.
It is all religion.
I find it rather interesting, actually. We’ve managed to educate the population to a rather high level, but really ‘science’ education is about belief in what you’re told, not so much about applying ‘scientific reasoning’ to the information you’re given.
A truly great example of this is ‘the flat earthers’. Now, I’m not suggesting that the Earth is flat — it isn’t (probably) — but rather that everyone learns at a young age that the earth is broadly spherical and this ‘religious tenet’ then comes truth-without-evidence. The ‘believers’ consider anyone that says otherwise to be a scientific-heretic and thus should be ridiculed/ignored/etc. But the vast majority of individuals have no understanding of why the Earth should be a globe (ie, the actual science) — all they have is the words of the science evangelists that tell them it is so. Note, these evangelists are seldom the scientists themselves, but usually the media celebrities that inform them in easy to understand snippets of information, told with an enthusiastic and confident tone and accompanied with some lovely pictures/videos.
I’d like it if everyone said ‘how do I know that the Earth isn’t flat?’. In the process of asking the question they might consider how much that they consider ‘knowledge’ is just a veneer covering a sea of ignorance, and in that recognition of ignorance they might start to think about educating themselves (apologies for channelling Socrates here…)
anyone asking himself “how do i know the earth isn’t flat”, should really try to stop crawling on the floor on all fours and try to learn to walk upright.
What would the core symbol of Covidianism be? You know,like Christianity has a cross.
I’m thinking either a blue disposable face-nappy, or a syringe – not sure which has the stronger claim!
The mask is the cross, the jab is the sacrament
The face-mask is used as an easy way to identify a believer (actually, to identify a non-believer).
I have suspicions that this was done on purpose — that the promotion of mask wearing was done because it is a self-reinforcing policy — people will comply so as to not be singled out as ‘different’.
over here in the netherlands mask mandates were lifted a couple of weeks ago.
there is not a mask in sight any more.
except in the places where one would expect the knowledge of the non functioning of the mask would be abundant: hospitals….
So many people seem to have developed an unhealthy looking, greyish tone to their skin or sometimes fine burst blood vessels/blotches on the face – like an alcoholic – anyone else noticed?
Yes – and brain fog. I’m quite serious.
Jabbed friends keep asking me anxiously, “Are you ok?” I reassure them, and then learn that – yet again – they’re unwell.
I noticed a slight jaundice in my father after dose 3. It seems to have gone now, but I have wondered if there was a link (liver damage is implicated with the vaccines (mNRA anyway))
Had the three jabs, in part to reassure vulnerable/nervous friends. Last week I turned up for a hospital appointment complete with negative covid test for the day in question and the day before (compulsory) and remained masked throughout (also compulsory). Three days later I felt so ill I took a covid test which was positive. i never had any faith in masks and am now pretty cynical about vaccines.
Hospitals do seem to be very high risk areas re. covid.
It is unequivocally correct that being jabbed makes it easier to catch it, and also easier to be killed by it, if you catch it within a few weeks of receiving a jab.
The drive to give people fourth jabs because of a rise in cases is absolutely ridiculous.
I increasingly feel that I am in another dimension. I look at those around me and they mindlessly repeat what they have seen or read as of it is the absolute truth. The same is happening now with the Ukraine as did with covid, nobody seems interested checking for themself. Last week was particularly disillusioning. I met some former (now retired) universe lecturer colleagues. Not one knew the average age of death with or without covid. They felt comfortable citing excess deaths yet knew nothing of the effect of the time series analysed. What hope is there? I always thought the term ‘sheeple’ was simply a derogatory term. Nowadays I am witnessing sheeple being herded with apparent simplicity. It’s scary.

Thanks
Yes it is a wired feeling. What is worse is people whom I assumed to be sane and intelligent, just can’t be persuaded or even reconsider, no matter how much evidence you show them.
i read this on today: you cannot reason people out of a position they did not reason themselves into…
Over at a friend’s yesterday and the news comes on showing “evil russian tank shelling residential block”.
Friend starts on “putin is evil needs to be removed, disgusting how they’re randomly killing civilians like this, yadda yadda”
I ask, “do you think they may have actually had a good reason for shooting an apartment building? It’s not like you’d just do that for fun so you know, perhaps there were snipers in there?”
The reply, “Oh no, nobody would put snipers in a residential building, especially the Ukranians, the Russians are just evil. ”
Lost for words…
I’m not sure how much truth is being told re. Ukraine (from either side).
That said, a certain amount of withholding of information or even misinformation is to be expected with armed conflict. This is not ever the case with medicine or information re. medical products.
Yes, but in this case it goes to the level of the western media withholding all the background, and why this has been brewing for years as the west (NATO / US) stirred things up, and Ukraine headed further towards being a failed state.
All the maintream media is pushing the simplistic notion that Russia has done this without any provocation or any logical reason.
It is doubly odd because there’s just so much pre-recent-conflict available on the crisis — all the information is there, but people keep on ignoring it.
I’m not saying ‘Russia is right’ here — just that there’s a complex history to the situation that isn’t being explained at all.
Not likely to be when they have banned RT precisely to make sure it isn’t!
you think rt is providing explanation of the complex history?
really?
have you ever seen the coverage by rt of the shooting down of flight mh 17 over ukraine by a russian buk missile in 2014?
Know that you are not alone with these exact experiences or your sentiments!
Thanks. A relief if only partially reassuring.
Off topic but I can’t help myself.
Just having a little look at what our lovely government is working on, vaccine-wise.
On Tuesday they published their joint statement with CEPI (aka World Economic Forum aka Gates Foundation) and Pfizer and Moderna and others about their joint 100 Days Mission to create novel vaccines within 100 days of “finding” a “novel pathogen” that could cause a “potential pandemic”.
Sounds ever so slightly like they plan to jab people whenever they feel like it, before it’s even necessary.
Of course, these novel vaccines will be just as safe and effective as the current ones. Do read the blurbs from Pfizer where they congratulate themselves.
Ties in nicely with WHO’s power grab Pandemic Preparedness Treaty aims where we all have to fall into line whenever Tedros feels like declaring a pandemic.
Gotta love $cience.
https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/joint-statement-on-delivering-the-100-days-mission/joint-statement-from-the-uk-government-cepi-ifpma-abpi-bia-bio-and-dcvmn-on-delivering-the-100-days-mission
We need to get out, and stay out. No subordination to big government, itself subordinate to the WHO, just people using their common sense to make the best they can of their limited time on this Earth.

Have you seen this?
Reality Check: “100 day vaccines” are NOT possible. – OffGuardian (off-guardian.org)
I have now! Thank you.
Only the Covid vaccine …”one we prepared earlier”! Others already “on the shelf” ready to go?
Is there anyone left on the side of humanity?
Well, they’ve now tried it once.
The results are that they created a vaccine-thing that didn’t stop infections, didn’t stop onwards transmission, had a mild impact on reducing hospitalisations for about 3 months and might have reduced mortality for a few months.
Hardly a glowing success.
The first two points are very important — we were lucky that Covid isn’t very dangerous for most people — if this had been a dangerous pathogen (eg Ebola) then the fact that the vaccines didn’t stop transmission would have meant that the disease would have rapidly spread through the population as soon as lockdowns were lifted, killing many of those for whom the vaccine didn’t work (for some reason).
I’d suggest that the covid vaccines are an excellent illustration of how it is very easy to get things wrong with novel medicines.
Isn’t that confusing them with people who give a damn?
Very very scary – no MPs in sight – no Media interest as Johnson does as he pleases signing away our lives and freedoms. WHO power grab…Gates owns WHO…Gates on tape saying the ‘vaccines’ could help reduce global population by 10-15%.
Alarm bells ringing yet!
Radio ads urging parents to get 12 to 15 year olds vaccinated to give them best protection.
And… second booster available next few months for The Vulnerable™️ – if third dose didn’t get you infected, try a fourth.
I am very concerned about children taking these covid jabs. There just doesn’t seem to be any benefit at all, but the risks remain (not that we know much about them yet).
Concerned!!! I am bloody horrified
Amanuensis, you are amazing. Thank you.
Thank you. I wasn’t sure how to respond, but eventually thought this expresses my views:
Let not any one pacify his conscience by the delusion that he can do no harm if he takes no part, and forms no opinion. Bad men need nothing more to compass their ends, than that good men should look on and do nothing. He is not a good man who, without a protest, allows wrong to be committed in his name, and with the means which he helps to supply, because he will not trouble himself to use his mind on the subject.
John Stuart Mill.
In summary therefore, the ‘vaccines’ have been an abject failure; do not stop infections; do not stop the spread of the virus and subject the recipient to unnecessary risks, harm and injury…
But the vaccine industry has made staggering amounts of money and returns on investment; has massively increased the power of the state; given virtually unlimited and unwarranted authority to politicians and bureaucrats; drastically diminished the freedoms and liberty of the individual.
Excuse me if I do not clap like a demented seal or draw rainbows everywhere…
”I could put together a more comprehensive analysis of these data if people are interested.”
yes please!
Okay. I’ll put something together. They’re certainly interesting — a mixture of failure of the NHS to get back up to speed (most things), a few worrying signs of lockdown and the outliers that suggest a vaccine or covid related problem. I’d caution that none of the data is by vaccine status, so links with the vaccine can only be suggested.
Cases,portmantus,and trunks!
Which reminds me when can I pack my case for an overseas holiday, we are un muzzled and un jabbed.
And the biggest irony is this …when the covidiots finally realise that the jab puts them at a higher risk of dying, having demanded the unjabbed be put in prison for not taking the jab, they will then demand compensation … and I’m sure they’ll get it … which because the only people paying for it and not getting it will be the unjabbed, it will effectively be a wealth transfer from the unjabbed to the stupidly jabbed …for being stupid.
Almost like redefining “Wealth Tax”, in effect, Mind you, redefining things is par for the course at present.
Mike, do you mean they will use the global Warming template where wealth is transferred from the poor to rich to pay for windmills?
appointments for cancer and cardiology and under specialist care for stroke.
two completely different data.
and most people do not have an appointment to have a heart attack….
Two thoughts amen….I now know six people who had new cancers or reoccurring cancers in the past six months. Four of them are now dead.
Why is Pfizer’s study data recently released, banned, ignored, suppressed by ALL msm and ALL health authorities. The data is showing six pages of adverse events and over 1,200 deaths. More mice, I mean people, died who were injected with the experimental biological (eb) than in the control group as this data shows. Which means, (1) these eb’s should have never been released and/or (2) should have been halted immediately once these findings were known.
And the they buried the chance of long term monitoring of the cohort group by injecting them; if Pfizer and any ethics whatsoever they would NOT have sanctioned this. In my Panglossian world that should instantly remove any and all protection from liability- therefore won’t happen.
So – to summarise – the use of so-called ‘vaccines’ has been generally pointless and has done more harm than good. Is that about right?
Yup I agree
Drop that stupid, meaningless insertion of ‘sadly’!
Can you find any data re fertility problems in women post vaccine? I’ve come across some cases anecdotally of a sudden drop in egg production and sudden early onset of menopause in young women (34) but I’d love to know if this can be seen statistically.
