Did the Covid vaccines save 7,000 in the summer of 2022? That's the claim of a new Lancet modelling study. But the underlying data show that two thirds of the hospitalisations and deaths were in the fully vaccinated.
In his analysis of the COVID-19 pandemic's impact on the U.K., financial analyst James Ferguson questions the likely overstatement of Covid and investigates the factors behind unexplained excess deaths.
Why do more and more figures from around the world show the vaccinated suffering from more Covid and more sickness than the unvaccinated? Neville Hodgkinson looks at the latest data from Australia.
Despite anguished media declarations, there was no 'tripledemic' among Rhode Island children this autumn, says Dr Andrew Bostom. RSV alone accounted for 90% of hospitalisations while Covid admissions were almost zero.
Flu hospitalisations in England have jumped by more than 40% in a week as they overtake Covid admissions for the first time and the NHS braces for one of the worst outbreaks of the virus in recent years.
Modelling has frequently been used to claim implausible results from Government interventions, not least when the UKHSA claimed the vaccines had prevented 25m infections when there had only been 6m infections in total.
A study from Oxford, Edinburgh and Swansea universities has found the Pfizer and AstraZeneca vaccines have negative effectiveness against hospitalisation and death within two to three months.
Nick Rendell senses a turning of the tide in people’s perception of the vaccines and the pandemic in general, and suggests some ways to broach the topic of vaccines without imbuing unproductive alarm.
The UKHSA Vaccine Surveillance Reports have published vaccine effectiveness estimates since May 2021, but the estimates have slipped down and down with each passing month. How effective are the jabs really?
One in 500 children under five years who received the Pfizer mRNA Covid vaccine were hospitalised with a vaccine injury, and one in 200 had symptoms ongoing for weeks or months afterwards, a study in JAMA has found.
