I’ve written before about the overestimation of the pandemic’s death toll in Britain. If you compare the official number of deaths with Covid on the death certificate to the number of excess deaths since March of 2020, you find the latter is about 20% lower. And due to population ageing, even that figure’s an overestimate.
I recently came across another powerful way of showing that the official death count is overstated. (The idea comes from veteran lockdown sceptic and Nobel Prize winner, Michael Levitt.)
Take the two-month period from the beginning of March to the end of April 2021. According to ONS data, age-adjusted excess mortality was –9%, meaning that the overall level of mortality was 9% lower than the five-year average. This can be seen in the chart below, published by the ONS in October:
Each line represents the cumulative age-standardised mortality rate as a percentage of the five-year average. Notice that all three lines begin sloping downward in March of 2021. Since the number plotted is cumulative, this can only happen if the age-standardised mortality rate was below the five-year average at the time.
Okay, so from March to April of 2021, there were significantly fewer deaths than you’d expect. Yet if we turn to the Government’s Covid dashboard, and check deaths in England for the same time period, we see that there were a substantial number:
The red lines mark the beginning of March and the end of April, respectively. Over this period, no less than 4,337 deaths with Covid on the death certificate were recorded in England.
On the one hand, the overall level of mortality was 9% lower than expected. But on the other, there were 4,337 deaths from Covid. What explains this disparity?
A lot of the people who died with Covid on their death certificate would have died anyway. Either Covid didn’t play a causal role in their death; or it did, but they would have died of something else in the absence of Covid (such as seasonal flu).
Note: I’m not claiming that all or even most Covid deaths would have happened anyway. There’s clear evidence that the pandemic killed people, especially during the spring of 2020. But there’s no use in overestimating the pandemic’s death toll. We actually want to get right.

“A lot of the people who died with Covid on their death certificate would have died anyway.”
we all die anyway, but covid deaths were overwhelmingly among the soon to be departed. it may have brought forward some deaths. at a certain level of age and health, its luck whether this winter or the next takes you. we still have around 50,000 excess winter mortality. and we had a lot of dry tinder
about zero people died ‘of’ covid who would otherwise have lived long and productive lives
about 200,000 will die because of lockdown and the notional health service
Have already died.
Yes withdrawal of effective Health Care has yet to hit the mortality figures. Sacking 100,000 nurses ought to bump them up !
(Anyone heard of “Virtual Covid Wards”? – well they exist – a friend of mine has just rescued his father from a Hospital where he was close to being wrongly diagnosed with “Covid” and put on a “pathway”!
He had previously been prescribed a ‘new’ medicine – over the phone( without being seen for a diabetic condition, not monitored by his GP since the launch of the Covid Scare, that made him seriously ill .
He has now escaped to the care of his family! He has since received an unsolicited call telling him he is in a “Virtual Covid Ward” – no, I jest not!)
Bastards.
15 million life years will be lost due to the recession (3 months each on average) in the UK
and millions around he world – especially poor children
more children die of diarrhea every year than the officially vastly inflated covid deaths. its poverty. and lockdowns have sent poverty through the roof
All part of the planned demolition of the ‘Old Normal’ by the Globalist Cabal – great Evil is abroad – some would probably say the Devil himself Rides Out!
More than that.
I would argue that the effects of lockdowns and its financial repression on the working class will have disastrous effects for many years
I very much wouldn’t argue against that.
But it has made all our politicians fabulously wealthy and their mates even richer.
So it wasn’t all bad, was it?

And the bastard Whitty DARED to utter that to attribute the issues with missed cancer treatments with unknown knock on lethal consequences was a “reversal of (the) truth”…he is the face of UK Project Coronavirus Fear for me – a long trip down a green mile for him.

And around April 2020 there was the “care” home killing spree, following the wholesale evictions of the terminally old and and ill from hospital.
See Freecumbria’s post in another thread for graphic evidence of a 3 week spike in non-covid deaths during the Midazolam episode. The excess non-covid peak is about 75% of the covid peak at the same time.

That ‘we’ doesn’t seem to include most of the Establishment, otherwise they wouldn’t have instigated the numerical inexactitudes in the first place.
“Numerical inexactitudes”
That’s going on my next t-shirt:
“THE EXPERTS AREN’T WRONG – THEY’RE NUMERICALLY INEXACT”
IIRR Astrology Professor Fergusson had guestimated ranges in vCJD from 150 to 150,000 I think it was 112 vCJD deaths. i.e. probably none from beef.
4 million cattle killed and burned for nothing.
I also note that he’s done no modelling on vaccine related illness/death — this probably means there’s something to worry about.
Plus numerous suicides of grief-stricken farmers. The covid lockdown also came with suicides, purely coincidentally of course.
Cattle killed in the foot and mouth slaughter ordered by Bliar:
ELEVEN MILLION.
There is an excellent documentary on the UK Column site but it is heartbreaking to watch.
https://www.ukcolumn.org/video/insight-slaughtered-on-s
Over 80k excess deaths at home. Amazing what happens when you tell people to stay at home and literally scare them to death. The first wave was clearly a mix of the virus and the gov/NHS overreaction to it, especially removing care, dnrs in care homes and emptying hospitals etc. I do remember about a 50/50 split being mentioned by some analysis but who knows the reality.
“Excess”? – there are no excess deaths 2020/21 according to a decade’s figures . ‘Excess’ has to means more than average – there is no evidence for this. Look at Ivor Cummins’ work over the last two years trying to get the truth out!
In any case, having been subjected to two yeas of fear propaganda rigged stats, actors faking Covid sickness, phoney graphs from Government and the Media – why should we believe any of the figures they publish when we know they are all designed to stir pandemic fear and force the ‘vaccinations’?
So many still seem to be diverted into irrelevance rather than looking for the real motives behind al this – the are plain to see!
I’ve banged on about this for ages. The term ‘excess’ is misleading. There is variabiliity around a chosen central measurement, to be accurate. The chosen baseline is an artifact that provides context – often too short. Calculating the mortality difference over day, week or month periods is largely meaningless, assuming a necessary regularity that doesn’t exist.
Excess as in 80k more deaths at home (all cause) then the average expected over the time period of the ‘pandemic’. The point being people who would have otherwise sought treatment and ended up dying in hospital, stayed away and died at home. No doubt a large proportion of those would have died anyway but some wouldnt as can be put down as lockdown deaths.
I think these types of figures are important as they show the cost of lockdowns and are a weapon in the arsenal against further tyranny. The more people who become aware of stats like this and the horrors that restrictions on nhs access cause the better imo.
It might be hard work, but worthwhile, if it is possible to demonstrate that the whole concept of “lockdown” was actually lethal. The usual suspects will fight like ferrets in a sack, but there is plenty of evidence available for those who know what to look for. It is possible that it’s too early yet, to understand the complete effect of it – after all, it is possible that in the next few years, life expectancy will fall. Some of the problems are quite likely to result from lack of service for other health problems, and it will take time for it to become apparent.
You might be interested in the following FOI response re the https://www.ons.gov.uk/aboutus/transparencyandgovernance/freedomofinformationfoi/covid19deathsandautopsiesfeb2020todec2021
This shows that a total of 6181 people died within Feb 202 and Dec 21 of just Covid19. All the other deaths included co-morbidties. A far cry from the 150,000+ figures put out by MSM as part of their fear campaign
We need now to be much more concerned with the dire consequences of the ongoing mass vaccinations, which were the principal objective of this whole “scamdemic”!
Read RFKJ’s excellent Book ‘The Real Anthony Fauci’ for a fully documented explanation – it is all in there!
That is certainly Fauci’s motivation. I suggest that most government’s has been the subsequent introduction of the bio-IDs.
Average 10 a day. More will have died from accidents. They knew what they were doing to us. Now we just have to make them pay.
Before Covid was a “thing” around 600,000 people die every year in the UK, some of those within 28 days of a common cold. It doesn’t mean they died of the common cold.
The average age of death “with” Covid at 82 is hardly any different to standard age mortality.
Due to previous mild winters before Covid the frail and elderly lived longer than expected. The “dry tinder” effect of a virulent but mild virus was enough to push many of the elderly into a slightly premature death which they had avoided due to those mild winters.
SARS-CoV-2 is a mild to non-existent virus for the fit and healthy but as deadly as flu for the frail.
It was blown out of all proportion to bring in draconian measures of control and was probably planned and deliberate.
Actually, there is evidence that people do die of the common cold. They die from a condition called ARDS — which is suspiciously similar to severe covid.
Each winter around 10% of ICU admissions are for ARDS, and rather a high proportion of the affected die. I do wonder if covid is that much more deadly than the common cold, particularly the more recent variants.
It now exhibits exactly the same effects as any other coronavirus that is a part of what we call the common cold, along with the other virus that also constitute a ‘cold’. It may have done from the beginning. The first two/three months of panic killed older people in care homes/hospitals who were on the point of death anyway. And doing nothing to alleviate symptoms and sticking oxygen pipes down throats killed a lot more.
I speculate that the 6,000 or so in the FOI request are at least 100% overstated.
Yes. There was a sharp peak in deaths in April 2020, largely of a nosocomial origin but the annual figure indicates that many were deaths that would have happened within months, and could well have happened earlier were it not for a mild previous infection season..
Hancock enforced exodus of elderly, untested at his behest, to Care Homes around this time as per John O’Looney?
Yup. One of my sons had it, and said, were it not for the past 2 years, he’d have had a cold. With a bit of a sore throat. And he’s got COPD, so “vulnerable” to a virus, which we now know killed TEN people a day from Feb 2020 to Dec 2021. That’s KILLED. Not “died with…”
https://www.ons.gov.uk/aboutus/transparencyandgovernance/freedomofinformationfoi/covid19deathsandautopsiesfeb2020todec2021
Johnson needs to swing. Do please spread that link far and wide, email it to your MP and start stocking piano wire.
I’ve tried to explain this to people. That catching a cold is how people in their eighties and nineties commonly die. They catch a cold, enter hospital, come down with pneumonia or some other respiratory disease, and that’s it. And how is that different from Covid-19, eh?
But they won’t have it. They don’t know what I’m talking about.I might as well be talking science fiction to them. I can only assume that the disconnect between familial generations is so severe now that people’s only experience of death is getting their hands on the proceeds from the sale of their relatives’ home.
Exactly. In 2018 my uncle aged 86 died of pneumonia and a month later his sister, aged 88 years, died of the same. No one panicked and ran around in ever decreasing circles; it is, as you say, how people in their 80s commonly die.
I have also tried to explain and quoted these deaths to people, but with the same results as you.
I think midazolam may have also played a part.
No may about it.
Midazolam, forced ventilations and lockdown measures definitely increased the numbers of deaths.
Exactly – and all verifiable. Even the ‘deadly’ effect on the vulnerable is largely mythical – the mortality curve remains close to natural mortality. Older people die at a higher rate.
The now old joke was, you’re (statistically) more likely to live longer if you catch covid.
Probably planned?
You an apologist for Johnson’s gang of crooks?
“The average age of death “with” Covid at 82 is hardly any different to standard age mortality.”
Actually a tad higher, again emphasising the deranged lunacy of what has been done to us.
Death figures should never have been released. They were propaganda weapons from the start, as well as tools for covidian voyeurism.
It beggars belief they turned the actual deaths that happened, and real tragedies for families, into a tawdry MSM spectacle.
Democratising death facts my ass.
Well said!
They are politicians.
What do you expect from them?
Honesty?
17,000 deaths over the last two years with no comorbidities in Eng/Wal. according to ONS FOI request.
https://www.ons.gov.uk/aboutus/transparencyandgovernance/freedomofinformationfoi/deathsfromcovid19withnootherunderlyingcauses
So it was all LIES. Why believe even 17K?
I don’t!
Whatever happend to the flu?
Or pneumonia?
Prior to 2020- 90 people per day EVERY DAY in the U.K. died from this
Whatever happend to the flu? Some time ago in general conversation I put this question to a GP, (while she was joking that the only pfizer jab side effect she had noticed was an irresistible urge to download more microsoft) face masks and social distancing was her explanation,”in that case why haven’t these measures eradicated covid” I queried , the gist of her response was that it’s more infectious.
‘flu ebbs and flows, just like most viruses, you know when you have had for sure. “Flu has not gone away, just jumped ship.
The most telling issue for me is that the facade erected by a lot of GPs and other medics has vanished, for me for good after several run ins with pill dispensers. Don’t wish to tar them all, honourable exceptions exist for sure, but the medical profession has to massively reboot, reject the NICE diktats, be prevented from taking any benefit from Pharmaceutical businesses, whether cash, kind, directly and indirectly, and return to the genuinely independent body they once where – they are as guilty as any party for the environment, established over decades, which enabled the Coronavirus scam to take hold.
The narrative has been falling apart for some time and now it appears to have its own impetus – I hope it does not stop here.
They can’t both be correct.
RS posted this – 6181 died between Feb 2020 and Dec 2021 from CoViD 19 with no co-morbidities.
https://www.ons.gov.uk/aboutus/transparencyandgovernance/freedomofinformationfoi/covid19deathsandautopsiesfeb2020todec2021
You this – 17,000 deaths over last two years with no co-morbidities.
https://www.ons.gov.uk/aboutus/transparencyandgovernance/freedomofinformationfoi/deathsfromcovid19withnootherunderlyingcauses
Given the 6181 data is the most recent and thus up to date, that looks likelier.
A simpler way is to look at the split of all cause deaths by occurence date between those labelled with covid and those that are non-covid and compare it to say the 2015-2019 average (which is good enough for this purpose)
You can see that the normal higher Winter mortality in 2020/2021 disappears until you add in covid labelled deaths. That’s not realistic that all extra Winter deaths disappear, noting extra Winter deaths aren’t all from respiratory diseases.
And then there’s a period around week 9 of 2021 onwards where all cause deaths are way below that 2015-2019 average (due to deaths of the susceptible earlier being brought forward by months) while covid labelled deaths are still being recorded. And those covid labelled deaths from around week 9 are actually greater for a period then than covid labelled deaths are at the moment.
It’s been said many many times before, by people with the capacity for critical thought and the ability too crunch numbers…By the close of 2020 it was evidant that all cause mortality, adjusted for age and population growth, was well within normal parameters, infact mortality was greater in 2009 and EVERY year previously all the way back to 1942! So the wide awake pose the question too government.. WHERE WAS THE PANDEMIC?
The pandemic was a ‘scamdemic’ – or if you prefer a Pseudo pandemic ‘fully explained i its full, shocking context by Iain Davis in his excellent assessment of all that has been going on in his book : “Pseudo Pandemic” which the whole country ought to read.
Iain has produced a consistently excellent series of analysis. I continue to wonder why its rarely if ever referred to ATL on this site. Is it a personal problem? Anyway his own website plus Off-Guardian and UK Column always run his analysis.
We know the figures are completely fraudulent because the UKGovernments system of recording Convid deaths is transparently fraudulent – any death within 28 days of a fraudulent not fit for purpose abused PCR test https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nBlj1olpeZ0. Originally there was no time limit – whoever is writing these laws and rules is a prime suspect in this. We also know that they rigged and meddled with the system of death registration to facilitate death certificate forgery to bump up the numbers and put Convid on the death certificate – great article about this here – https://in-this-together.com/covid-19-is-a-statistical-nonsense/. We also know that they deliberately killed people – as we know they are still doing thanks to the recent testimony of John O Looney where he confirmed he was being coerced by at least one doctor into taking part in a trial for Remdesevir when he ended up in hospital and we already know Remdesevir kills and causes Convid symptoms including pneumonia thanks to the work of Bryan Ardis. We know about all the Midazolam deaths and deliberate government killing of the elderly in the nursing homes. We know about the fast tracking of people to mechanical ventilators too. And think about the mechanism here – scare people stupid with all the Convid terroriasm in the media from the traitors – close the doctors surgeries – make people feel like they are going to die if they so much as cough – this forces people into the hospital and before they know it they are being put on a ventilator so they dont aerosolise “THE VIRUS” in the hospital. We also know from the work of Denis Rancourt that these conditions of isolation and disruption to the way of life for many can induce pneumonia especially in poorer communities and many died in the US of bacterial pneumonia which was labelled Convid and therefore they never got antibiotics because they were banned for Convid as it is said to be viral. But Daily Sceptic ignores all this. Tra lala nothing to see here, move along. In fact the Editor of DS uses the governments fake, fraudulently engineered death toll to make arguments about how deadly Convid really is.
There is tonnes of evidence of government criminality. And now, it sounds like we are about to see a criminal investigation in to the government ministers and its advisers. The Met are supposedly (the police are very much in the frame for acting against the interests of the people and being an integral part of this crime machine that now controls the UK and world so will we ever get real investigations from them……they have a highly tarnished track record for coverups and day to day they use deceit to justify interfering in peoples lives so they cannot be trusted but its all we have to do this and all eyes are upon them – if they dont act with integrity they are committing crimes) now investigating the accused in the UKG – ministers and advisers – civil servants – media bosses. There is nowhere to hide for these people. They have committed the most egregious acts of dishonesty and the most heinous crimes against the people of this country in broad daylight. Here is a short recorded police room interview in which the crime number with the Met is quoted and the charges against the government ministers and its advisers and the civil servants and media bosses are laid out. What a jaw dropping list of charges it is. How have we let this happen and how have we allowed such vile people to infest our democracy and national institutions. This is very encouraging to see this ball now rolling. They are now visiting all UK police stations to demand the jab centres are closed and vials seized as they are part of an official murder investigation. The rubber may well be about to meet the road for these criminals.
UK Action – Govt & Media To Be Arrested & Vaccination Centres Ordered Closed Down
https://www.bitchute.com/video/eXrPem6yErqD/
Mark Seton has written an extraordinary letter which all concerned citizens must see. Below isa slightly edited ( for length only) version
“Dear Metropolitan Police, Hammersmith CID, all serving Police Constable’s and all Police staff.
To, Detective Chief Superintendent Treena Fleming assistant to Cressida Dick
This is an open letter to you and for the attention of every man, woman and child in the U.K. and around the world.
One month on since the reporting of serious crimes and a crime number being issued, please answer and consider the following?
1, why haven’t The Metropolitan Police made contact with all U.K. Police forces to make them aware of the dangers of the vaccines? This is despite all Chief Constables being individually notified three weeks ago and Sadiq Khan The Mayor of London.
2, why haven’t The Metropolitan Police made an announcement to alert the public of the dangers of the vaccines?
3, why haven’t The Metropolitan Police and all U.K. Police forces advised all medical establishments to cease administering the vaccines immediately?
4, why haven’t The Metropolitan Police and all U.K. Police forces seized all vaccines from all establishments and taken them into the police’s secure detained property stores, considering they are weapons being used to cause mass harm, injury and death?
5, why are law abiding members of the public being forced to go to vaccination centres across the U.K. and demand they are closed down immediately with limited or no assistance from the Police?
6, why are some Police forces telling the public the crime number does not exist and the whole thing is a hoax?
Yet other Police forces are acknowledging the crime number is real and evidence is being collated and assessed by The Metropolitan Police.
7, the evidence (so far) submitted is vast, irrefutable and damning on a scale that is very disturbing. Why haven’t The Metropolitan Police made contact with any of the expert witnesses in order for them to provide their very credible evidence? They are being acknowledged by Superintendent Jon Simpson (the former assistant to Cressida Dick) and he in turn is forwarding all correspondence onto the investigating team. Yet limited contact is being made considering the irrefutable evidence they can provide.
8, since making the complaint on the 20th of December 2021 approximately one hundred and fifty more people have died unnecessarily as a result of the vaccines. Also in that time tens of thousands more people have suffered serious injury and harm.
This is unacceptable. This is the governments own yellow card reporting data and it’s believed to be under reported by at least ten times.
9, the evidence provided is more than enough to warrant an immediate cessation of the vaccines, but in any instance they should be paused while these assessments are made.
Common sense alone dictates this should be done at the very least.
Why has this not been done?
10, why haven’t you convened an urgent meeting between the informants and some of the medical and scientific experts, to discuss and guide the Police to the most pertinent evidence and how this can assist with the decision making processes.
Their expertise and knowledge base is key and it offers the best evidence to support all of the allegations.
11, why is there a total media and social media blackout pertaining to the criminal complaint and the investigation being carried out?
12, Constables of all rank and file swore an oath to protect the public from harm, injury and death.
As public servants it is your basic fundamental duty to do so without interference from any outside agency including government. You are impartial.
No man or woman, business or corporation private or public are above the law. We are all equal in the eyes of the law.
Not title, financial status or appointment of public office gives anyone special privileges or exemption from investigation, arrest or prosecution.
The actions or indeed inactions of every Constable have consequences for that individual officer.
The inactions so far by not protecting the public from harm is the individual responsibility of each of you and you are not protected by The Metropolitan Police or The Police Federation.
You must act to save lives straight away and any unlawful orders to the contrary from senior rank or government must be ignored and appropriately challenged.
The vaccines must be stopped immediately and the public must be notified of their dangers. The evidence is overwhelming. Not only are you Constables in possession of the evidence but Constables with families, friends and colleagues who are all seeing the devastation they are causing. “
One word that springs to mind – Freemasonry. Its actually ridiculous that we allow this criminal cult to fester in our institutions. But there will of course be powerful people in the background pulling the strings of corruption, potentially making threats against anyone who dares to investigate etc. Thats how these people do their business – crime. Mark Sexton is doing an amazing job and really knows what he is up against as well. Its our job to spread the word of truth and try to wake people up. The more awake people are, the less hiding places these people have and the more the pressure builds.
Yes …it does appear according to some that the top tier of the Masons are back in the frame globally … but then we also have ‘Common Purpose’…we now seem to have discovered exactly what that “Common Pupose” involves.
They have been hiding in plain sight for decades!
(JFK warned of Secret Societies threatening US democracy in an extraordinary speech given shortly before his assassination.)
Without doubt, the four words among many that spring to mind are cretinous conspiracy non entity ; you are without a shred of doubt, a fully paid up member of the Brain Dead Society by spouting your poisonous rubbish.
Yes, I am a senior Freemason; no , I am not a member of a criminal cult. Yes, I have assisted others to raise a lot of money for the impoverished family members of deceased Masons ” to relieve their suffering” and to enable vital medical treatment to be accessed, as well as many non Masonic causes and charities, no I don’t pull strings behind the scenes and if you are suggesting that Freemasons are disposed to corruption as a facet of their membership, say exactly that and I hope you get your comeuppance. You denigrate thousands of people who belong to this and other fraternal and sororal societies who are as far away from your monumentally stupid, prejudiced and totally ill informed villification.
But worst of all you dare to ignorantly describe Freemasons, sadly no longer with us, who cannot answer your cretinous bile; like people I have known who were ex WII veterans of Army and RAF, business people who did an immense amount for charity, people from different ethnic backgrounds and beliefs and who set an example to people like me to try and follow by being honest and upstanding – something you probably do not recognise by the manner of your utterances;
Humanity as many facets – no one is perfect. Instead of spouting your bilious rubbish, educate yourself what the best of these organisations REALLY do, Freemasonry being just one of many; are they all blameless – absolutely not, because they are populated by human beings.
One good thing has come out of this – it puts every thing you have posted into stark context, so I guess it is time to be grateful for minuscule mercies.
WHAT a letter. I sent my own to Cressida Dick, admonishing her in the strongest terms for sending about eight rank-and-file police officers into the centre of a totally peaceful crowd in Hyde Park, London, in April 2020 – ostensibly to seize an amplifier from the musicians who were playing there after one of the marches. The situation could have turned EXTREMELY nasty, but it didn’t, owing to the peaceful crowd, who protected them from one or two violent individuals (who we believe were planted there to discredit the whole event) by forming a gangway back out to Bayswater Road.
Those policemen and women were completely untrained and unprotected. Peaceful crowds – whatever their motivations – can quickly turn violent and lethal if they feel threatened – it’s a simple force of Nature. Cressida is living on borrowed time. She is in completely above her head. Doesn’t know what she is doing.
Two methods I didnt mention that they have been using to kill and criminally mislabel as Convid – one is killing folk with the jabs and calling it Convid – another was shifting thousands of elderly people from the hospitals to the nursing homes and then imposing strict isolation. This all creates death – all planned – all blamed on Convid. The biggest scam ever.
This was my personal experience with my own mother – a bilateral stroke victim, kicked out of the stroke rehab ward in Leeds (LGI) because she didn’t have the flu/”covid”, dumped into a nursing home (untested) which was ENTIRELY and CRIMINALLY unsuited to her needs (most riddled with dementia, she is 101% compos mentis). The council then started chasing me/my mum for costs of over £1,200 per week, I had to become an expert in Coronavirus Act 2020, with no legal assistance, and after three months fighting I got an apology from the council and from the NHS. Then seven months later I got the bill anyway, and had to fight all over again. And I won. Took over my life. We’re still not out of the woods.
The state always, inevitably becomes Franz Kafka. No exceptions. The state is always the enemy.
I know it’s of no use, but I really do sympathize with you.
Wow thats an amazing account of individual power – much respect. This country has become like this by design, its shocking that we have allowed this evil takeover to happen. They only get away with this crap because we dont understand the law so we dont know how to defend ourselves. Anna De Buisseret has been saying how we lack the legal knowledge but that must change so we can be armed against this kind of tyranny
Seems a very long way to say ‘The people who gave us the official figures are lying treacherous shitbags’.
Anything new?
Yes. We know that Covid deaths are overestimated – that is surely one of the principal purposes of the PCR test?
We also know that deaths from the Covid mRNA Gene Therapy jab are ‘officially’ massively underestimated by as much as a factor of 10, which allows us to assume that the real number of deaths is now 20,000 and rising .
Not surprisingly there is total Media blackout and regional Police inaction over the full-on Crime investigation being undertaken by Hammersmith Police into the alleged vaccine genocide.Vaccine ‘success’ praised evert day on all MSM news outlets including the ‘fearless’ GB News.
Have ‘Common Purpose’ stepped in or is it the Masons? How much longer can they hold the lid down? Mark Sexton is not going away.
{Huge crowd of peaceful protesters kettled and then attacked by armoured police in Rostock Germany ( plenty of video footage)!}
Sorry – but am I missing something? What is the relationship between the two graphs? The first says – Deaths were below the average (absolute number not stated or shown) while the second graph says that a number of people died in the period.
So less people died, but some of those that did die were reported as having covid. I think I need to re-read the article. Yeap – it seems to me that there is a supposition there.
Maybe add how many deaths in total were reported in the period in question as a good comparison. ie what percentage would the 4,337 deaths represent.
I am not sure I follow the argument – sorry.

Significant because he is a major figure on Youtube. Will they try to cancel him if he pushes harder?
The same clown whose bread and butter is studying authoritarian regimes who was almost in tears because he did everything the government wanted and still wasn’t granted his “muh freedom”?
This whole episode has been very interesting in the way that science has been repurposed.
A good example of this is in the measurement of covid deaths. While there were uncertainties about how covid killed it made sense to count all deaths with covid, but there was also a need to understand the ‘very likely of covid’ deaths — this would have been easy enough — keep track of both with and of (defined by a particular set of medical symptoms) separately, so that the actual impact of the disease could be understood.
This is obvious to me as a scientist.
But that way the response of the government could be criticised later — so the chosen method was to only record ‘with covid’ deaths — that way we’ll never know how many actual deaths there were.
This approach isn’t obvious to me as a scientist. But then, that’s what makes politicians so very good at their job — the most important factor is to make decisions in such a way that you can’t be identified as making a bad decision.
We’ve seen the same with the vaccines. What it completely obvious to me is that you should undertake extraordinary levels of pharmacovigilance given that the vaccines were under-tested. That means things like monitoring all hospitalisations by vaccination status. But, by doing that, they’d have allowed people to work out that mistakes were made, so instead they did as little monitoring of the vaccine’s side effects as possible, pretty much only relying on the Yellow Card system (which is fantastic for them because whatever it is that the database says, it can be explained away by some means or another).
It’ll be years before the true nature of the epidemic is understood — and that’ll mean that all those that made things worse will probably get away with it (and that’s the way they planned it).
Very good explanation, but it was still disgusting and in a fair world there should be retribution
As a scientist surely your number one concern should be that the tests are unvalidated and have never been proven to be connected to any specific illness, yet they are being used to facilitate this hideous scam.
Hear, hear!
Sorry my bad – you were a government scientist, so two plus two equals five and the issues I mentioned are just minor issues which shouldnt be raised as they can blur the bigger picture and distract from the noble objectives of the British State.
You also know they are an overestimate because during Omnicron the daily death rate had a high correlation with the case rate and a negative correlation with ICU beds. Also, the excess death rate was normal. In other words, people were dying coincidentally with Covid but can’t have been dying from Covid because they weren’t being treated for Covid. Likewise, if this happened during Omnicron it must have happened earlier as well.
To a mathematician the truth is what can be mathematically proved
To an accountant the truth is what can be numerically added up or calculated
To a lawyer the truth is what can be proved in a court of law
To a politician the truth is what appears in the newspapers or on TV (or what they can pay ‘Scientists’ to say)
or the latest “poll”
agree, what they can pay the pollsters to interpret as the latest ‘poll’.
Oh dear! Another Noah non-revelation. Not that the basic analysis is not a worthy clarification and confirmation of all-cause mortality in relation to this ‘deadly’ disease (and despite the use of a short-term anomalous baselines as context) – but the fact of over-claiming the impact of Covid on . deaths has been obvious since mid-2020. John Lee wrote his first Spectator article, pointing to the inevitable consequences of the death-registration process way back.
We will never know the true figures, and there is natural variability in mortality that the term ‘excess deaths’ muddies, but the first line graph has always been there in the background for anyone who cares to look. And has made no difference.
Of course, one feature is that it does nothing for the credibility of the vaccines!
“about 20% lower”: that’s not too bad an accuracy, given how malleable doctors tend to be, and how prone to espousing the latest fashions.

We want to get it right. But the government wants to get it scary.
The salient point is that more people died from lockdowns etc. than “covid”. And that if focused protection or some other less catastrophic strategy had been followed, this would not materially have altered the equation.
It is also arguably worth considering from the point of view of QALYs, and whether life is indeed still worth living for some people with such extreme, inhumane restrictions. Freedom has a price. Doesn’t mean it’s not worth having.
Medical clinics and hospitals in USA are denying life-saving Ivermectin medicine even with court orders. Big Pharma doing all that they can to push the vaxx and inoculate us while effective and cheap COVID cures exist. There turns out to be censorship that we have never seen before for those who are looking for these treatments. We say over and over again that indepenedent researchers found Ivermectin safe and very effective for these Flu-Corona symptoms. Getting Ivermectin is easy https://ivmpharmacy.com
Offer doctors (remember them?) money to write Covid on a death certificate and don’t be surprised if the ‘Death by Covid’ total goes through the roof.
The glossary in the ONS weekly death reports may be part of the problem. It led me into using a somewhat pejorative term “Shipman certificates”. Old Dr. Harold Shipman would have got away with many more murders in that scenario, you’d have thought.

I find even more galling than most in that I emailed my MP in 4th week of March 2020 and told him this would be the case and even gave him the numbers based on going back to the 1950s. I am not a statistics expert just a normal person who understands figures. I had a wager with my MP in March 2020 that from July 2020 to July 2021 the total number of deaths would be no higher than the 20 year average taking account of increased population and age standardisation. The average age at death with Covid is 81.4 years and that has hardly varied which shows overwhelmingly that Covid affected the over 70s only.
I also laid out all the mistakes that Ferguson had made on modelling going back to the late 1980s – I am a retired dairy farmer so I know about his wayward predictions; yet this was the 4th PM to listen to him.
There are more deaths from reactions to the vaccinations than persons who died with Covid under 50 years of age.
A lot of praise and admiration should be showered on Toby Young for starting and sticking with Lockdown Sceptics and Daily Sceptic even though he has been criticised and ridiculed by so many people from all sides. He should be lauded for his dedication and people like Neil O’Brien MP should be thoroughly ashamed in their attempts to discredit him and other eminent Lockdown sceptics.
Neil O’Brien is a disgraceful example of a career politico MP masquerading as a human being. He was tasked by what appears to be the higher echelons of the Tory Government to organise – under the bogus banner of “fact checking” – a tyrannical exercise in denigrating many professionals who dared to give a view counter to the SARS COV2 response narrative. His Twitter outbursts are forever going to mark him as a government apparatchik hell bent on personal aggrandisement and to hell with the “truth” – and blow me if he hasn’t been given a pay rise as Parliamentary Under Secretary for Levelling Up for spouting information that is now being revealed on a daily basis suddenly to be misinformation (but to some was utter rubbish from day 1). He and his ilk have no place to hide with “The Great Unravelling” – I wonder what he thinks of his “Dear Leader” this week? Hows the new job going,Neil, swimmingly I wonder? But in what?
