After almost 15 months of various forms of lockdown, hospitals have finally been told to change the way they collect data on patients who test positive for Covid. They have been instructed to differentiate between those who are actually sick with Covid symptoms and those who test positive but are actually ill with something else. The Independent has the story.
NHS England has instructed hospitals to make the change to the daily flow of data sent by NHS trusts and told the Independent that the move was being done to help analyse the effect of the vaccine programme and whether it was successfully reducing Covid sickness…
One NHS source said the new data would be “more realistic” as not all patients were sick with the virus, adding: “But it will make figures look better as there have always been some, for example stroke [patients], who also had Covid as an incidental finding.”
In a letter to hospital bosses on June 7th, shared with the Independent, NHS England’s Covid Incident Director, Professor Keith Willett, said that from now on NHS England wanted “a breakdown of the current stock of Covid patients into those who are in hospital with acute Covid symptoms (and for whom Covid is the primary reason for being in hospital); and those who are primarily in hospital for a reason other than Covid (but for whom the hospital is having to manage and treat the Covid symptoms alongside their primary condition)”.
He added: “In lay terms, this could be considered as a binary split between those in hospital ‘for Covid’ and those in hospital ‘with Covid’. We are asking for this binary split for those patients newly admitted to hospital and those newly diagnosed with Covid while in hospital.”…
NHS England data on hospital admissions is published daily at a regional level and several days later on the Government’s dashboard. An internal daily dashboard of Covid data tracks infections across hospitals but is not made public.
Professor Ian Douglas from the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine said: “I think there are good arguments for presenting these data separately – people in hospital ‘with’ vs ‘for’ Covid, as it does partly address the burden to health services due to the virus. Not completely though, because people in hospital with Covid will presumably also need to be treated differently to avoid further spread, which places some extra burden on the hospitals.
“I’ve got no idea what the split is like at the moment, and importantly we won’t know retrospectively what the trend is. Following on from that, there are only a few days before any announcement about June 21st, which may not give us long enough to be sure about what direction the ‘for Covid’ numbers are going.”
This change resembles the recent shift in the definition of a “case” by the CDC in America, where an infection in a vaccinated person is now only a “case” when the person is hospitalised or dies, whereas with the unvaccinated any positive PCR test still counts as a “case”, no matter how mild or asymptomatic.
Now, I’m all in favour of a more restrictive and conventional definition of case that gives a more realistic picture of the impact of the disease. But one can’t help suspect it’s more about politics than science when the kind of change many of us have been calling for since the start only comes once it helps to create the impression that the vaccines are working.
The Independent report is worth reading in full.

It is a beautful ideal but for now it will have to remain in the heavenly realm. The supreme androgyne possessed of a penis and testicles, titties and a vagina. The ultimate being. The black transgender (male to female) lesbian. You must learn to keep these things within the realm of your private cosmology. Something is lost in translation when you try to bring them into the earthly realm.
But if they did exist, then they’d star in every BBC, Netflix, and Disney product, now and forever
Absolutely. The dream of the overlords is a black tansgender man wearing a thong so his balls hang out with a pussy picture on the front singing The Star-Spangled Banner or perhaps Jerusalem in England. This is the dream or the nightmare.
And a vision that I now cannot get out of my mind. Thanks
I bring my notion of being a black lesbian in a wheelchair into the earthly realm when filling in job application forms.
“John Swinney said he did not believe that it was possible for males to bear children”
ROFL
“Believe”
Isn’t “belief” usually reserved for matters than cannot be empirically determined?
Perhaps he thinks correlation is not causation – just because none of the X billion men that have ever lived has ever given birth doesn’t mean they can’t.
I wonder what Swinney’s mum would have said about this, remembering raising her little boy, and never imagining that he would grow up to lead Scotland and declare that men can get pregnant. And how about his dad— what would he have said to his son about this?
It just shows the utter madness induced by relentless Globalist Propaganda & Brainwashing over the past few decades.
Must have been hit by one too many hot rivets down shipyard
Are you implying that this goon once had a proper job??!!
The real question that Swinney should have been asked is whether he and his lawyers think campervans are ownership fluid.
Oh, enough of this shit.
He should just have googled it – Google AI Overview says: “No, men cannot get pregnant or give birth.”
That does it, I’m reporting Google AI for perpetrating a Hate Crime.
What a total farce. Makes me proud to be Scottish.
“Forced to admit…” Coward.
Please, please have a look at this description of the “HIJRAS” of the Indian Subcontinent, which seems to be the actual source of all this Globalist attempt “TO MAKE SODOMY THE CORNERSTONE OF A NEW GLOBAL ETHIC”, as Cardinal Robert Sarah once said.
Here is the source of it all !!!
” In India, the Supreme Court in April 2014 recognised hijras, transgender people, eunuchs, and intersex people as a “third gender” in law. Nepal, Pakistan, India and Bangladesh have all legally accepted the existence of a third gender, with India, Pakistan and Nepal including an option for them on passports and certain official documents.”
“The word hijra is a Hindustani word. It has traditionally been translated into English as “eunuch” or “hermaphrodite”, where “the irregularity of the male genitalia is central to the definition”. However, in general hijras have been born male, with only a few having been born with intersex variations. Some hijras undergo an initiation rite into the hijra community called nirvaan, which involves the removal of the penis, scrotum and testicles.”
“They are mostly employed as sex workers” [i.e., prostitutes].
“Hijra identity and culture is documented to have evolved during the Delhi Sultanate (1206–1526) and Mughal Empire (1526–1707), where hijras held positions as servants for elite households, manual laborers, military commanders, political advisors, and guardians of the harem.”
[***same as Janissaries in the Ottoman Empire]
“Franciscan travellers the 1650s noted the presence of “men and boys who dress like women” roaming the streets of Thatta, in modern Pakistan. The presence of these individuals was taken to be a sign of the city’s depravity.”
Hijra (South Asia) – Wikipedia
The Globalists are trying to force this depravity upon the West.
It is only the taxes of working people that they are wasting on the court case but does Swinney know what a working person is given that Two Tier, Thieves and co seem to struggle with it.
