A closer look at the timelines of Germany's Patients Zero and One reveals troubling inconsistencies, which call into question the entire official story of Germany’s alleged first COVID-19 cluster.
It turns out that the original 'asymptomatic spreader' whose case was widely reported in the medical literature actually had symptoms and took medicine. Yet the paper claiming otherwise has never been retracted.
Asymptomatic people with Covid are only responsible for a tiny fraction of spread, a study in the Lancet has found, exploding a myth that formed a key part of pandemic social distancing policies and fear messaging.
COVID-19 saw the emergence of an industry of fact-checking websites and censorship of 'misinformation', portrayed as a danger to public health. Drs Roger Watson and Niall McCrae revisit one to see how well it has aged.
A new study from Cedars-Sinai found that a minority of people suffering from Omicron even realised they had it – and, bizarrely, the researchers interpret this as a cause for alarm, not a reason to relax.
The UK Government claimed asymptomatic people testing positive for COVID-19 were just as likely to infect others. But a HUGE new study says they were 68% less likely to pass the virus on. Talk about misinformation!
Government policies on discharging untested patients from hospital to care homes in England at the start of the Covid pandemic have been ruled unlawful by the High Court.
Of 34 people deliberately infected with coronavirus, just 18 (53%) tested positive by PCR and 17 (50%) had symptomatic infection, confirming how much innate protection many have to the virus.
How did managing an 'asymptomatic disease' become the focus of Government policy when, according to a senior research scientist, the concept makes so little sense?
A new Oxford study claims to show the vaccines working. But a closer look reveals some strange features, plus a confirmation of the troubling post-jab infection spike, leaving us with more questions than answers.
