The focus in this article is on information and studies which the main stream media do not share with us, helping you to form a balanced opinion. “Truth” can have several sometimes contradicting aspects. Science is based on shifting sands of change and willingness to qestion everything. At a time of a declared global pandemic, this face mask article will hopefully contribute to widen the perspective.
Finally: the mechanics of droplets spreading wearing face masks and the risk for the wearer are plausibly shown in this article. “Population studies show that the use of masks either resulted in an increased incidence of COVID-19 or had no impact. None of the examined jurisdictions experienced decreased incidence of COVID-19 after the introduction of mask mandates, except two that had already begun a sharp descent in COVID-19 cases weeks earlier.
Two physical mechanisms are proposed to directly contribute to this finding, based on current available research. The first is scatter mechanicsof dispersed respiratory droplets becoming aerosolized on collision with the mesh of a mask on outward exhalation and then lingering in air. The secondis the pressurized and distant peripheral jets of unfiltered exhaled aerosol from the nozzled edges of a mask. These phenomena result in viral particles lingering longer and traveling farther in airspacefrom a masked person than exhaled respiratory droplets falling close to the body from the orifices of an unmasked person. There are also chemical mechanisms for increased COVID-19 cases in masked populations. This is likely due to immune suppression caused by hypoxic and hypercapnic conditions, as well as acidotic, immobilized cilia in the lungs, and reduced skin surface available to sunlight for vitamin D production. Caution is therefore urged against use of masks among those who wish to reduce the risk, either for themselves or others, of infection with SARS-CoV-2 or COVID-19 disease.” [PDMJ]

“Dentists are warning about the health issues tied to prolonged use of a mask to stop the spread of the coronavirus. They said dental problems associated with “mask mouth,” including gum disease, could lead to serious complications.” ““Gum disease — or periodontal disease — will eventually lead to strokes and an increased risk of heart attacks,” Marc Sclafani, a dentist and co-founder of One Manhattan Dental, told the New York Post about “mask mouth,” which is increasingly causing inflammation and gum disease among patients. Another dentist and co-founder at One Manhattan Dental, Rob Ramondi, said 50% of his patients are suffering from negative health issues due to mask-wearing.” [Washington Examiner, 7 Aug 2020]
“Research published today in the Journal of Clinical Periodontology,1 the official publication of the European Federation of Periodontology (EFP). The study of more than 500 patients with COVID-19 found that those with gum disease were 3.5 times more likely to be admitted to intensive care, 4.5 times more likely to need a ventilator, and almost nine times more likely to die compared to those without gum disease.” [3 Feb 2021]
23 Dec 2020: Study: Mask Mandates Increase Rates of COVID Compared to States with No Mask Mandates “Protective-mask mandates aimed at combating the spread of the CCP virus that causes the disease COVID-19 appear to promote its spread, according to a report from RationalGround.com, a clearinghouse of COVID-19 data trends that’s run by a grassroots group of data analysts, computer scientists, and actuaries. Researchers examined cases covering a 229-day period running from May 1 through Dec. 15 and compared the days in which state governments had imposed mask mandates and the days when they hadn’t. “The reverse correlation between periods of masking and non-masking is remarkable,” RationalGround.com co-founder Justin Hart tweeted on Dec. 20.”

A study of 6,000 Danes was set to reveal whether wearing a face mask actually reduces the risk of COVID-19. The only problem was leading medical journals are refusing to publish the data, and the study’s lead author hinted it’s because they’re not “brave enough” to do it. “Three medical journals — The Lancet, the New England Journal of Medicine and the Journal of the American Medical Association — have refused to publish the study,” [source in October] Now PUBLISHED, 18 Nov 2020: “Researchers in Denmark reported on Wednesday that surgical masks did not protect the wearers against infection with the coronavirus in a large randomized clinical trial.”
“Surgical masks did not protect the wearers against infection with the coronavirus in a large randomized clinical trial.”
Roughly 4,860 participants finished the experiment. 42 people in the mask group, or 1.8 percent, got infected, compared with 53 in the unmasked group, or 2.1 percent. The difference [0.3%] was not statistically significant. The study ran from early April to early June 2020. [source]
The Times writes in Sweden claims fall in coronavirus infection rateis down to immunity: “As cases surge across Europe, leading to new restrictions such as the mandatory wearing of masks in many public areas, the infection rate in Sweden is falling. The infection rate in France is more than 60 per cent higher than that of Sweden.” “France implemented a strict lockdown in the spring and requires masks to be worn in many public areas but has a fortnightly infection rate of 60 cases per 100,000 people.” “Sweden, which decided not to implement compulsory measures at that time and which rejected the use of masks, has a rate of 37 cases per 100,000 people.” “Anders Tegnell, the Swedish state epidemiologist leading the response to the pandemic, has noted, based on the statistics, that infection rates have increased in countries such Spain, Belgium and France during and following the mandatory wearing of masks in many public areas. “The belief that masks can solve our problem is very dangerous,”“
CDC study: “Community and Close Contact Exposures Associated with COVID-19 Among Symptomatic Adults ≥18 Years in 11 Outpatient Health Care Facilities — United States, July 2020″ – please note the bottom four entries. This is a strong correlation – however: it does not prove a causation.
The above table from the CDC study “Community and Close Contact…” shows, that from 154 hospital outpatients with positive covid-19 test results 70% ALWAYS wore a cloth mask – and only 4% never used one. The control group had similar results. This is an interesting correlation raising questions about health impacts of wearing face masks – however, this does not prove any ‘causation’.
Below, doctor Ted Noel, an anesthesiologist with 36 years experience wearing different masks in operating rooms explains and shows why masks don’t work – and how the outbreath puffs out sideways and up:
UPDATE 24 November: Medical Doctor Warns that “Bacterial Pneumonias Are on the Rise” from Mask Wearing: Dr. James Meehan, MD followed by warning that mask wearing has “well-known risks that have been well-studied and they’re not being discussed in the risk analysis.” “I’m seeing patients that have facial rashes, fungal infections, bacterial infections. Reports coming from my colleagues, all over the world, are suggesting that the bacterial pneumonias are on the rise. “Why might that be? Because untrained members of the public are wearing medical masks, repeatedly… in a non-sterile fashion… They’re becoming contaminated. They’re pulling them off of their car seat, off the rearview mirror, out of their pocket, from their countertop, and they’re reapplying a mask that should be worn fresh and sterile every single time.” “New research is showing that cloth masks may be increasing the aerosolization of the SARS-COV-2 virus into the environment causing an increased transmission of the disease…” “In February and March we were told not to wear masks. What changed? The science didn’t change. The politics did.” [source]
Did face masks contribute to viral pneumonia during the Spanish Flu?
As shown in the chapter “Was The Spanish Flu Different?” on HealthTruth.info, viral pneumonia following the influenza spike killed most during the Spanish Flu. It would be tragic, if the same would happen again in the winter 2020, triggered by excessive face mask wearing.
Skin infections: Wearing a face mask for a prolongued time can cause skin irritations, known as “maskne” (mask+akne) and is not recommended.
Reminder from the Sydey Morning Herald: “Farce mask: it’s safe for only 20 minutes“ Retailers who cash in on community fears about SARS by exaggerating the health benefits of surgical masks could face fines of up to $110,000. NSW Fair Trading Minister Reba Meagher yesterday warned that distributors and traders could be prosecuted if it was suggested the masks offered unrealistic levels of protection from the disease. “Those masks are only effective so long as they are dry,” said Professor Yvonne Cossart of the Department of Infectious Diseases at the University of Sydney. “As soon as they become saturated with the moisture in your breath they stop doing their job and pass on the droplets.” [this article is from April 27, 2003 when the world was in a global SARS scare – just like in 2020]
Research shows that face masks do neither protect the wearer nor others, but they may cause health problems for the wearer.
On 12 March 2020 The Independent reported, that one of England’s most senior doctors has warned members of the public they could be putting themselves more at risk from contracting coronavirus by wearing face masks, Jenny Harries, deputy chief medical officer, said the masks could “actually trap the virus” and cause the person wearing it to breathe it in. “For the average member of the public walking down a street, it is not a good idea” to wear a face mask in the hope of preventing infection, she added.
Most facemasks contain plastic fibres, which release microparticles when inhaled into the lungs. Reusable home made and cloth masks need washing; washing powder contains ingredients which may irritate the skin, and the epitelium of the liungs is very sensitive.
Breath inhibiting face masks on babies with shallow breathing is dangerous. A healthy motherly instinct does not need scientific proof to figure this out.
Wearing face masks makes sense in a dusty environment. And they catch droplets when snezing or caughing. But wearing a mask for a long time can weakens the immune system. Introducing face masks in the summer, and months after the infections have peaked, was compared to bringing condoms to a baby shower.
Hypoxia means: there is a reduced amount of oxygen in the blood. A 2015 study indicated that hypoxia inhibits T-lymphocytes (the main immune cells used to fight infections) by increasing the level of a compound called hypoxia inducible factor-1 (HIF-1). Wearing a mask, which has been shown to cause hypoxia, may actually set the stage for contracting COVID-19 and make the consequences much worse.
Here is a common sense thought: There’s probably a cup ful of air between the mask and the face of the wearer, containing some outbreath, which gets inhaled on the next breath. Children, old, frail or inactive people with a shallow breathinhale more used air with less oxygen and more CO2. They are more likely to suffer from hypoxia (too little oxygen) or hypercapnia (too much carbon dioxide) in the blood. This is why children and frail people should NOT wear masks.
Hypercapnia is an elevated level of CO2 carbon dioxise in the blood. 5000ppm is the limit for safe work places. In the experiment below, the N95 mask scored over 9999ppm a blue papermask over 9000ppm a cloth mask:9000ppm a visor / face shield: 1500ppm.
the CO2 level under a face mask is above the 5000 ppm level for safe work places
An 11 year old boy tests various face masks for increased carbon dioxide under the mask after a few breaths. The surgical N95 mask shows the worst result exceeding the measurement limit of the instrument
Dr. Orr’s study: “Is a mask necessary in the operating theatre?“ From March through August 1980, Dr. Orr’s surgeons and staff in the Severalls Surgical Unit in Colchester wore no masks, and compared the rate of surgical wound infections with the rate of wound infections from March through August of the previous four years. When nobody wore masks during surgeries, the rate of wound infections was less than half what it was when everyone wore masks.
“When nobody wore masks during surgeries, the rate of wound infections was less than halfwhat it was when everyone wore masks“
Their conclusion:
“It would appear that minimum contamination can best be achieved by not wearing a mask at all” and that wearing a mask during surgery “is a standard procedure that could be abandoned.”
June 2015: Unmasking the surgeons: the evidence base behind the use of facemasks in surgery states: “While there is a lack of evidence supporting the effectiveness of facemasks, there is similarly a lack of evidence supporting their ineffectiveness.” “Annual NHS England expenditure on facemasks lies somewhere in the region of £2.5 to £9.1 million.”
The experiment with petridishes shows, that mask use while talking or singing does not make much difference. Unsurprisingly, a sneeze brings out most bacteria, followed by coughing. Nothing new. Wearing a mask while sneezing or coughing makes sense. Using a handkerchief (“catch it, bin it“) might probably also do the job.
“Masks dehumanize us” Nonverbal Communication in Psychotherapy. “An estimated 60 to 65 percent of interpersonal communication is conveyed via nonverbal behaviors.” “Masks distort the structure of the face. The lower part of their face is disguised. Identity is concealed. No non-verbal cues or emotion is communicated to a fellow human being can be discerned; all facial communication is hidden under the mask”
“Face masks are being used in schools in a way that breaches the World Health Organisation guidelines, senior medics have warned” [Telegraph 20 Dec 2020]
First results of a Germany-wide registry on mouth and nose covering (mask) in children: “Results: By 26.10.2020 the registry had been used by 20,353 people. In this publication we report the results from the parents, who entered data on a total of 25,930 children. average wearing time of the mask was 270 minutes per day. Impairments caused by wearing the mask were reported by 68% of the parents. These included irritability (60%), headache (53%), difficulty concentrating (50%), less happiness (49%), reluctance to go to school/kindergarten (44%), malaise (42%) impaired learning (38%) and drowsiness or fatigue (37%).“
The psychological effect of signs in shops and other places saying “You must wear a face mask” can be peceived as intimidating or threatening, especially for those exempted from wearing masks. Here is an example of a FRIENDLY sign:
The timing of the introduction to wear face masks in shops in the summer had no scientific foundation – but it kept the fear of the virus alive.
UK,summer 2020, after public transport, facemasks were made mandatory in shops. Next year the government might claim “wearing face masks prevented the second wave”? Graphic: NHS England
Here is a personal report from Michelle Krinsky: “Just a little review of my termination in 2018 from a 35 year career in nursing. I declined the mandatory flu shot. I requested to wear a mask during the duration of “flu season,” which had always been hospital policy. I was told that surgical masks as well as N95 masks are not effective in filtering viral particulate.Masking was no longer an option and I was fired.”
When you do NOT need to wear a face covering [UK]: • children under the age of 11 • where putting on, wearing or removing a face covering will cause you severe distress • if you are undertaking exercise or an activity and it would negatively impact your ability to do so • to avoid harm or injury, or the risk of harm or injury, to yourself or others • if you are delivering a sermon or prayer in a place of worship • if you are aged 11 to 18 attending a faith school and having lessons in a place of worship as part of your core curriculum [from gov.uk 4 December 2020]
From a Specialist Disability Discrimination Lawyer: Anna de Buisseret IMPORTANT MASK INFORMATION The Government has FAILED to conduct a Risk Assessment of the risks to the individual members of the public for the harms caused to them by mask wearing– or wearing a face covering. Without such a Risk Assessment, the individual is NOT providing “informed consent” to wear a “medical device” (which a mask is as defined under the Medical Devices Regulations 2002). A face “covering” falls to be regulated under the Consumer Protection Regulations. The Face Coverings Regulations are therefore – prima facie – unlawful and should not be enforced. In the view of our legal team, the Face Coverings Regulations are ultra vires the Government’s powers but that legal argument is ongoing. None of the supermarkets are providing their customers with a Risk Assessment either – so their customers are also not able to provide their “informed consent” to wearing a face covering /mask. This is unlawful as “informed consent” must be obtained. Anyone being asked to wear or use a medical device – such as a mask – should be medically assessed by an Occupational Health team for their INDIVIDUAL risk posed to them by wearing a mask. Failure to conduct a Health & Safety Risk assessment is both a civil and a potentially criminal offence. Therefore both the Government and the supermarkets – and anyone else enforcing mask mandates in the absence of a full Health & Safety Risk assessment in the workplace -, is acting unlawfully and can be held PERSONALLY liable for the damage caused to the individual. Legal challenges are already being run against the “mask perpetrators” to challenge this unlawful and harmful mask mandate and cases are already being won, and damages for harm caused paid out. I’m a specialist disability discrimination lawyer who also has a stream of claimants lining up to bring legal claims for damages from this mask mandate. Countless people are being harmed by wearing a mask and others are being harmed from the discrimination they are enduring from being mask exempt. The flood of litigation is going to be Tsunami-like! Be warned: perpetrators will be held to account. Anyone enforcing or imposing this mandate should be warned that they are acting unlawfully and will be held personally liable for the harm they cause. I advise anyone harmed by this mask mandate in a work environment (which supermarkets are) to file a report of your harm to the Health & Safety team and ask them to conduct an investigation into whether the employer or supermarket or other “mask perpetrator “ has conducted a valid H&S Risk Assessment. The local council’s Environmental Health Officer is responsible for ensuring that commercial premises in their area are safe for the public. This includes whether it’s safe for the public to be forced to wear a face covering or mask whilst in a supermarket or other commercial premises. Without a full Risk Assessment, no one should be required or forced to wear a face covering or mask – it’s a breach of the Health & Safety laws and a potentially criminal offence. If the employer or other “mask perpetrator “ hasn’t followed the law in forcing you to wear a mask, criminal investigations can follow under Health & Safety laws. The Equality Act 2010 does not permit anyone to discriminate against a disabled person on the grounds of their disability.
Refusing entry to a shop or access to public services to a disabled person is prima facie disability discrimination. No evidence can be lawfully demanded. It’s a breach of both the right to privacy and the Equality Act 2010 to ask for medical evidence in this manner. Masks worn by the public in community settings, do not prevent transmission of a virus particle as tiny as SARS-CoV-2: that’s what the scientific research evidence shows. Masks can INCREASE the risk of transmission if not face-fitted and fit-tested for the individual wearer as leakage occurs. Masks can INCREASE the risk of secondary bacterial and fungal infections due to incorrect putting on and taking off of the mask, incorrect storage and lack of sterilisation of the contamination collecting on the surfaces of the mask.
These contaminates are then inhaled: the moisture and humidity of the mask is a perfect breeding ground for bacteria and fungus which multiply in the mask fibres. These are then inhaled deeply into the lungs where they multiply further, along with the loose fibres of the mask which collect in the lungs. Secondary bacterial lung infections are a major risk factor from inhaling bacteria into the lungs. Secondary bacterial lung infections were the major cause of death in the Spanish Flu. They had cloth mask mandates then too. See a correlation? Masks cause multiple organ damage – some of which is irreparable and permanent.Masks cause social, cognitive, emotional and psychological harm too. Have YOU been fully informed of all the harms that wearing a mask causes to YOU? Have YOU had a H&S Risk Assessment by an Occupational Health Team for the risks posed to you – as an individual- for mask wearing? If not, how do YOU know what the risks are? How are YOU providing YOUR individual informed consent to wearing this medical device without a full H&S Risk Assessment? You’re not able to. You’re simply guessing that it won’t harm you in the absence of a full Risk Assessment.
I have 55 pages of scientific research evidence proving the many harms caused to the mask wearer. I’ve prepared a detailed Risk Assessment and a Health & Safety Risk Assessment on mask wearing for any of you who would like to be informed of the harms and risks of mask wearing. There are a team of around 70 of us professional lawyers, medics, Health & Safety inspectors, industrial hygienists, psychologists, scientists and others who are collaborating to raise legal challenges against the unlawful and harmful mask laws and mandates and policies. Our evidence is therefore drawn from top experts in their fields.
4 Sept: a French court rules mandatory masks in public places “serious and illegal infringement” of citizens’ liberties Some French local authorities are being forced to revise orders making mouth and nose coverings compulsory as courts side with civil liberties groups. A court in Lyon ruled on Friday that making face masks mandatory in all public spaces in Lyon and neighbouring Villeurbanne constituted a “serious and illegal infringement” of citizens’ liberties. A civil liberty group called “Les Essentialistes” brought the case against authorities arguing that the decrees were disproportionate and inefficient. The ruling in Lyon followed two similar decisions earlier this week in Strasbourg, in the north-east of France, and in Seine-Maritime, in the north-west. Mask wearing in the UK is likely to also be challenged in court.
The WHO themselves have been careful to note that they are NOT instructing governments to implement mandatory masks.
If you do NOT wear a mask due to personal reasonsand get verbally abused, “You can claim for the emotional distress the discrimination has caused you – this is called ‘injury to feelings’. You’ll need to say how the discrimination made you feel. Ask your family, friends, medical professionals or support workers if they’ll be witnesses to how the discrimination affected you.” “You can claim compensation for injury to feelings for almost any discrimination claim. “ “The minimum award for injury to feelings should be around £1,000.” [from citizensadvice.org, England]
It seems, that wearing face masks is solely a political decision. Please avoid using one way face masks, as they contribute to the contamination of our beautiful planet.
The WHO states in 2019 “Non-pharmaceuticalpublic health measures for mitigating the risk and impact of epidemic and pandemic influenza“ : “Face masks worn by asymptomatic people are conditionally recommended in severe epidemics or pandemics, to reduce transmission in the community. Although there is no evidence that this is effective in reducing transmission, there is mechanistic plausibility for the potential effectiveness of this measure.”
The science: Physical interventions to interrupt or reduce the spread of respiratory viruses systematic review and meta-analysis [7 April 2020]: “Compared to no masks there was no reduction of influenza-like illness (ILI) cases or influenza for masks in the general population, nor in healthcare workers.” “There was insufficient evidence to provide a recommendation on the use of facial barriers without other measures. We found insufficient evidence for a difference between surgical masks and N95 respirators and limited evidence to support effectiveness of quarantine.”
The WHO writes in a Scientific Brief on 9 July 2020 “Transmission of SARS-CoV-2: implications for infection prevention precautions“: The physics of exhaled air and flow physics have generated hypotheses about possible mechanisms of SARS-CoV-2 transmission through aerosols.(13-16) These theories suggest that 1) a number of respiratory droplets generate microscopic aerosols (<5 µm) by evaporating, and 2) normal breathing and talking results in exhaled aerosols. Thus, a susceptible person could inhale aerosols, and could become infected if the aerosols contain the virus in sufficient quantity to cause infection within the recipient. However, the proportion of exhaled droplet nuclei or of respiratory droplets that evaporate to generate aerosols, and the infectious dose of viable SARS-CoV-2 required to cause infection in another person are not known, but it has been studied for other respiratory viruses.(17) One experimental study quantified the amount of droplets of various sizes that remain airborne during normal speech. However, the authors acknowledge that this relies on the independent action hypothesis, which has not been validated for humans and SARS-CoV-2.(18) Another recent experimental model found that healthy individuals can produce aerosols through coughing and talking (19), and another model suggested high variability between individuals in terms of particle emission rates during speech, with increased rates correlated with increased amplitude of vocalization.(20) To date, transmission of SARS-CoV-2 by this type of aerosol route has not been demonstrated; much more research is needed given the possible implications of such route of transmission.
You could not make this up…Humour and truth often go hand in hand… More about the Immune SystemSome people put their face covering incorrectly onAre the media trying to persuade us that face masks are sexy? Do women really prefer masked men?
This suggestion by the Terrence Higgins Trust from 10th of August 2020 is ridiculous, and if it is meant to be taken serious, it’s dangerously inhuman. What kind of understanding about the human nature and intimate connections does this show, BBC Newsbeat?
Polymearase Chain Reaction (PCR) test: The pcr tests for fragments of the SARS-COV-2 virus, NOT for the Covid-19 disease. Healthy people testing “positive” are not “cases”. A medical “case” has to be illor show symptoms needing treatment. To get 100% confirmed real positives, the PCR test must be run at no more than 17 amplification cycles. Patients cannot be contagious above25 cycles. The maximum reasonably reliable Ct value is 30 cycles. Above 35 cycles, 97% false positives can be expected. The UK NHS is using up to 45 amplification cycles. 22 international scientists found 10 fatal problems in the Corman-Drosten paper (basis of the pcr test) and published them in a peer review. PCR tests are not suitable as specific diagnostic tool.
What Is The PCR Test?
Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) is a method widely used to rapidly make millions to billions of copies of a specific DNA sample, allowing scientists to take a very small sample of DNA and amplify it to a large enough amount to study in detail. A limitation of PCR is that even the smallest amount of contaminating DNA can be amplified, resulting in misleading or ambiguous results.
If you want to dive deeper into the science, read “PCR Amplification“
There is a huge difference between being infected – and being ill. Healthy people testing positive for coronavirus should not be labelled as “cases”; a “case” has to be ill or show symptoms needing hospital admission. Calling asymptomatic people “a case”, is medically and psychologically wrong. Testing infections in a hospital intensive care unit (ICU) brings naturally MUCH higher results than tests including the healthy population (“pillar 2” in the UK). A lot of the same people are being tested once a week, such as nurses and care assistants and people going in to hospitals, so although they may have done say ‘20,000’ tests, that’s 5000 people tested four times each. “And a word on testing: I do want to emphasize that I’m in the business of testing for Covid. I do want to emphasize that positive test results do not, underlined in neon, mean a clinical infection. It’s simply driving public hysteria and all testing should stop. Unless you’re presenting to hospital with some respiratory problem.” [23 Nov. Dr. Roger Hodkinson, ex-president of the pathology section of the Medical Association and chairman of a bio technology company in North Carolina selling the COVID-19 test. Full audio is HERE]
A Doctor Reports – from jbhandleyblog.com: During my career in family medicine, including several years as an Army physician, I have cared for patients with chickenpox, shingles, Lyme disease as well as measles, tuberculosis, malaria, and AIDS. The “case definition” established for all of these diseases by the CDC requires the presence of signs and symptoms of that disease. Having now been privileged to care for sick patients with COVID-19, both in and out of the hospital setting, I am happy to see the number of these sick patients dwindle almost to zero in my community – while the “case numbers” for COVID-19 continue to go up. Why is that? In marked contrast to measles, shingles, and other infectious disease, “cases” of COVID-19 do NOT require the presence of ANY symptoms whatsoever. Health departments are encouraging everyone and anyone to come in for testing, and each positive test is reported as yet another “new” case of COVID-19!
Hence, anyone who has a positive PCR test (the nasal swab, PCR test for COVID Antigen or Nucleic Acid) or serological test (blood test for antibodies –IgG and/or IgM) would be classified as a “case” – even in the absence of symptoms. In our hospitals at this time, there are hundreds of former nursing home residents sitting in “COVID” units who are in their usual state of good health, banned from returning to their former nursing home residences simply because they have TESTED Positive for COVID-19 during mass testing programs in the nursing homes.
The presence of a positive lab test for COVID-19 in a person who has never been sick is actually GOOD news for that person and for the rest of us. The positive test indicates that this person has likely mounted an adequate immune response to a small dose of COVID-19 to whom he or she was exposed – naturally (hence, no need for a vaccine vs. COVID-19).

False Positives & False Negatives
The UK government posted the following study on 3rd of June 2020: “Impact of false-positives and false-negatives in the UK’sCOVID-19 RT-PCR testing programme“: What is the UK operational false positive rate? “The UK operational false positive rate is unknown… An attempt has been made to estimate the likely false-positive rate of national COVID-19 testing programmes by examining data from published external quality assessments (EQAs) for RT-PCR assays for other RNA viruses carried out between 2004-2019 [7]… giving a median false positive rate of 2.3% (interquartile range 0.8-4.0%).” “What is the UK operational false negative rate? The UK operational false negative rate is unknown. A recent study [6] combined results from seven studies… Their model suggested that in the first four days of infection (presymptomatic phase) the probability of a false negative in an infected person decreased from 100% on day 1 (i.e. a false negative was certain) to 67% on day 4. It then decreased to 38% on day 5 (day of symptom onset) to a minimum of 20% on day 8 of infection. The false negative rate then increased from day 9 (21%) to day 21 (66%).” [The “Figure 3” graphic further down illustrates these findings]
Former CSO and VP, Allergy and Respiratory Research Head with Pfizer Global R&D and co-Founder of Ziarco Pharma Ltd., Dr Mike Yeadon writes: “I have identified a serious, really a fatal flaw in the PCR test used in what is called by the UK Government the Pillar 2 screening – that is, testing many people out in their communities… the Health Secretary, Matt Hancock, misled the House of Commons and also made misleading statements” Dr Mike Yeadon explains, that a pcr test with 0.8% false positive results means, that 89-94% of pcr “cases” are FALSE positives, as only about 0.1% of the population have coronavirus.
Dr. Wolfgang Wodard: “How can a test that turns out positive for the many different SARS viruses of bats, dogs, tigers, lions, domestic cats and humans, which have been changing and spreading worldwide for many years, be called specific for the detection of an allegedly only four-month-old SARS-CoV-2?” “The test seemingly also measures earlier SARS variants that are constantly altering, can change hosts quickly and are not found in virologists’ databases. However, these were and are obviously not considered to be extraordinarily dangerous.”
Cycle Threshold/Amplifications
According to an April 2020 study in the European Journal of Clinical Microbiology & Infectious Diseases, to get 100% confirmed real positives, the PCR test must be run at no more than 17 amplification cycles.
Bullard et al reported that patients could not be contagious with PCR Cycle threshold Ct >25 as the virus is not detected in culture above this value. [this means: if you don’t find a positive virus test result with 25 cycles / amplifications, there is no point increasing the cycles any further]
“The threshold value cutoff for the CDC’s PCR test is 40 cycles [of amplifications], a value that many medical experts believe returns false positives, as fragments of a killed virus may be picked up…. What the Cycle threshold [Ct] cutoff value should be varies in discussions among the scientific community, but generally ranges between 25 and 30 with agreement that patients cannot be contagious above these numbers.“
Another viral culture study… reported that patients with threshold values at 34 or above did not “excrete infectious viral particles.” ““We know that after about one week of infection from SARS-CoV-2, people are no longer infectious to others, but they still will be positive with PCR testing because they’ll still have bits of the virus within their body.” [from: COVID Test Scam: Cycle Threshold Values Being Deliberately Omitted]
The chance of detecting a positive culture using the PCR test after 34 or more amplifications is near zeroThe UK Express writes on 6 September: “Research by experts at Oxford University suggests as many as half of the “positive” tests relied upon could actually be false because the current test is so sensitive it can pick up dead and harmless viral particles that are shed once the infection has passed.”
The NHS / UK is using 45 cycle amplifications in the PCR test:
“The PCR swabs take one or two sequences of a molecule that are invisible to the human eye and therefore need to be amplified in many cycles to make it visible. Everything over 35 cycles is, as reported by The NewYork Times and others, considered completely unreliable and scientifically unjustifiable. However, the Drosten test, as well as the WHO recommended tests that followed his example, are set to 45 cycles.” “The test cannot distinguish inactive and reproductive matter. That means that a positive result may happen because the test detects, for example, a piece of debris, a fragment of a molecule which may signal nothing else, then that the immune system of the person tested won a battle with a common cold in the past.” [‘from Crimes against humanity‘]
“The maximum reasonably reliable Ct value is 30 cycles. Above a Ct of 35 cycles, rapidly increasing numbers of false positives must be expected.“ “only non-infectious (dead) viruses are detected with Ct values of 35.” [CORMAN-DROSTEN REVIEW REPORT]
PCR tests under fire – report in the Mail Online 30 August
This has huge world wide implications, as the WHO-protocol directly derives from the Corman-Drosten paper.
“Further, serious conflicts of interest of the authors are not mentioned. Finally, the very short timescale between submission and acceptance of the publication (24 hours) signifies that a systematic peer review process was either not performed here, or of problematic poor quality.” We provide compelling evidence of several scientific inadequacies, errors and flaws. “Considering the scientific and methodological blemishes presented here, we are confident that the editorial board of Eurosurveillance has no other choice but to retract the publication.” [from Review report Corman-Drosten et al. Eurosurveillance 2020, 27 November]
The CORMAN-DROSTEN REVIEW REPORT continues: “In case of virus detection, >35 cycles only detects signals which do not correlate with infectious virus as determined by isolation in cell culture [reviewed in 2]; if someone is tested by PCR as positive when a threshold of 35 cycles or higher is used (as is the case in most laboratories in Europe & the US), the probability that said person is actually infected is less than 3%, the probability that said result is a false positive is 97%“ “There exists no specified reason to use these extremely high concentrations of primers in this protocol. Rather, these concentrations lead to increased unspecific binding and PCR product amplification. “The design variations will inevitably lead to results that are not even SARS CoV-2 related.Therefore, the confusing unspecific description in the Corman-Drosten paper is not suitable as a Standard Operational Protocol. “…in nearly all test procedures worldwide, merely 2 primer matches were used instead of all three. This oversight renders the entire test-protocol useless with regards to delivering accurate test-results of real significance. “A better primer design would have terminal primers on both ends of the viral genome. This is because the whole viral genome would be covered and three positive signals can better discriminate between a complete (and thus potentially infectious) virus and fragmented viral genomes (without infectious potency).
The CORMAN-DROSTEN REVIEW REPORT continues: [All three primers have GC values BELOW the 40% minimum (28% 31% and 34.6%)] “If the Tm-value is very low, as observed for all wobbly-variants of the RdRp reverse primers, the primers can bind non-specifically to several targets, decreasing specificity and increasing potential false positive results.” A maximal Tm difference of 2° C within primer pairs was considered acceptable. Testing the primer pairs specified in the Corman-Drosten paper, we observed a difference of 10° C … This is a very serious error and makes the protocol useless as a specific diagnostic tool. “…the dNTPs (0.4uM) are 2x higher than recommended for a highly specific amplification“ “The design errors described here are so severe that it is highly unlikely that specific amplification of SARS-CoV-2 genetic material will occur using the protocol of the Corman-Drosten paper.“ “…the case of small fragments of qPCR (around 100bp): It could be either 1,5% agarose gel or even an acrylamide gel.” “The fact that these PCR products have not been validated at molecular level is another striking error of the protocol, making any test based upon it useless as a specific diagnostic tool to identify the SARS-CoV-2 virus.“
“the functionality of the published RT-PCR Test was not demonstrated with the use of a positive control (isolated SARS-CoV-2 RNA) which is an essential scientific gold standard.” “the E gene used in RT-PCR test, as described in the Corman-Drosten paper, is not specific to SARS-CoV-2.“ “The E gene primers also detect a broad spectrum of other SARS viruses. The genome of the coronavirus is the largest of all RNA viruses that infect humans and they all have a very similar molecular structure. Still, SARS-CoV1 and SARS-CoV-2 have two highly specific genetic fingerprints, which set them apart from the other coronaviruses. First, a unique fingerprint-sequence (KTFPPTEPKKDKKKK) is present in the N-protein of SARS-CoV and SARS-CoV-2 [13,14,15]. Second, both SARS-CoV1 and SARS-CoV2do not contain the HE protein, whereas all other coronaviruses possess this gene [13, 14]. In order to specifically detect a SARS-CoV1 and SARS-CoV-2 PCR product the above region in the N gene should have been chosen as the amplification target. A reliable diagnostic test should focus on this specific region in the N gene as a confirmatory test. The PCR for this N gene was not further validated nor recommended as a test gene by the Drosten-Corman paper, because of being “not so sensitive” with the SARS-CoV original probe [1].”
“The Corman-Drosten paper does not contain this [the HE gene] negative control, nor does it contain any other negative controls. The PCR test in the Corman-Drosten paper therefore contains neither a unique positive control nor a negative control to exclude the presence of other coronaviruses. This is another major design flaw“
“There should be a Standard Operational Procedure (SOP) available, which unequivocally specifies the above parameters, so that all laboratories are able to set up the identical same test conditions. To have a validated universal SOP is essential, because it facilitates data comparison within and between countries. It is very important to specify all primer parameters unequivocally. We note that this has not been done... The protocol as described is unfortunately very vague and erroneous in its design“ “It is inevitable that this test will generate a tremendous number of so-called “false positives”.” “The Corman-Drosten paper was not peer-reviewed“ “two authors of the Corman-Drosten paper, Christian Drosten and Chantal Reusken, are also members of the editorial board of this journal [19]. Hence there is a severe conflict of interest” [source]
Understanding cycle threshold (Ct) in SARS-CoV-2 RT-PCR: a guide for health protection teams [by gov.uk, 28 October] “Cycle threshold (Ct) is a semi-quantitative value that can broadly categorise the concentration of viral genetic material in a patient sample following testing by RT PCR as low, medium or high –that is, it tells us approximately how much viral genetic material is in the sample. A low Ct indicates a high concentration of viral genetic material, which is typically associated with high risk of infectivity. A high Ct indicates a low concentration of viral genetic material which is typically associated with a lower risk of infectivity. In the context of an upper respiratory tract sample a high Ct may also represent scenarios where a higher risk of infection remains –for example, early infection, inadequately collected or degraded sample. The cycle threshold (Ct) can be defined as the thermal cycle number at which the fluorescent signal exceeds that of the background and thus passes the threshold for positivity (Figure 1, page 5).”
gov.uk continues: “A typical RT-PCR assay will have a maximum of 40 thermal cycles… A 3-point increase in Ct value is roughly equivalent to a 10-fold decrease in the quantity of viral genetic material [in the sample].”
Ct values cannot be directly compared between assays of different types due to variation in the sensitivity (limit of detection), chemistry of reagents, gene targets, cycle parameters, analytical interpretive methods, sample preparation and extraction techniques. Additionally, Ct values are not provided for all SARS-CoV-2 molecular detection methods. Some commercial RT-PCR techniques are closed ‘black box’systems whereby the operator cannot observe the reaction in real-time and the result is interpreted by software into a qualitative non-interrogatable positive or negative result. [gov.uk]
“A single Ct [Cycle threshold] value in the absence of clinical context cannot be relied upon for decision making about a person’s infectivity. There are many different SARS-CoV-2 RT-PCR assays/platforms in use across the UK. Ct values cannot be directly compared between assays of different types – not all laboratories use the same assay, and some may use more than one.” [gov.uk]
“Positive results with low viral load (high Ct) can be seen in the early stages of infection (before the person becomes capable of transmission of the infection) or late in infection when the risk of transmission is low (periods indicated by the dotted red line). Recovery phase of infection with diminishing viral load. Prolonged detection of viral genetic material that is likely to be non-infectious has been observed for SARS-CoV-2.” [gov.uk] [bold highlighted by HealthTruth.info]
WHO Update PCR Users
WHO UPDATE re. PCR Tests from 20 January 2021: It seems like the criticism (see more in this chapter) about the number of pcr test amplifications / cycle threshold and the big number of false positve test results has forced the WHO to send out the following NOTICE: WHO Information Notice for IVD Users 2020/05 Product type: Nucleic acid testing (NAT) technologies that use polymerase chain reaction (PCR) for detection of SARS-CoV-2 Target audience: laboratory professionals and users of IVDs. Purpose of this notice: clarify information previously provided by WHO. This notice supersedes WHO Information Notice for In Vitro Diagnostic Medical Device (IVD) Users 2020/05 version 1, issued 14 December 2020. Description of the problem: WHO requests users to follow the instructions for use (IFU) when interpreting results for specimens tested using PCR methodology. Users of IVDs must read and follow the IFU carefully to determine if manual adjustment of the PCR positivity threshold is recommended by the manufacturer. WHO guidance Diagnostic testing for SARS-CoV-2 states that careful interpretation of weak positive results is needed (1). The cycle threshold (Ct) needed to detect virus is inversely proportional to the patient’s viral load. Where test results do not correspond with the clinical presentation, a new specimen should be taken and retested using the same or different NAT technology. WHO reminds IVD users that disease prevalence alters the predictive value of test results; as disease prevalence decreases, the risk of false positive increases (2). This means that the probability that a person who has a positive result (SARS-CoV-2 detected) is truly infected with SARS-CoV-2 decreases as prevalence decreases, irrespective of the claimed specificity. Most PCR assays are indicated as an aid for diagnosis, therefore, health care providers must consider any result in combination with timing of sampling, specimen type, assay specifics, clinical observations, patient history, confirmed status of any contacts, and epidemiological information.
Actions to be taken by In Vitro Diagnostic Medical Device (IVD) users: …4. Provide the Ct value in the report to the requesting health care provider.

No Asymptomatic Transmission
A peer reviewed article in Nature.com (20 November) looking at PCR test data from nearly 10 million residents in Wuhan city found thatnot a single one of those who had been in close contact with an asymptomatic individual tested positive Of the 34,424 residents with a history of COVID-19, 107 individuals tested positive a second time, but none were symptomatic and none were infectious. This research paper also indicates that “virulence of SARS-CoV-2 virus may be weakening over time“ [summarised by Dr. Mercola 4 Dec & The Last refuge 20 Dec. – read more about Natural Immunity after covid-19]
HealthTruth.info comment: Without asymptomatic transmissions, all of the current lock-down regulations, mask wearing requirements and social distancing rules have no scientific basis, and could be challenged in court.
Dr Michael Yeadon @MichaelYeadon3, 21 Nov. on Twitter: “The first time the notion of “asymptomatic transmission” was mentioned, I smelled a rat. It’s biologically implausible. Not saying it’s never happened once, but as an important contribution to transmission? No. To be a source, you need lots of virus in your airway. But once that happens, you will be symptomatic, either because the virus is injuring your lung lining (epithelium) or because you’re fighting it off (or both). You can’t be both a virulent source AND not have symptoms. Yet it was on the basis that you often wouldn’t show symptoms yet place others at risk that MASS TESTING, all the time, in ever-increasing numbers, was commenced. Now we formally know what basic biology and immunology told us, we can HALT MASS TESTING OF THE ASYMPTOMATIC. We’ve said it for months. Mr Hancock, stop it now.”
“Asymptomatic transmission”… To be a source, you need lots of virus in your airway. Once that happens, you will be symptomatic. You can’t be both a virulent sourceAND not have symptoms. [Dr Michael Yeadon]
Dr. Anthony Fauci, U.S. Director of National Institute of Allergies and Infectious Disease: “In all the history of respiratory-borne viruses of any type, asymptomatic transmission has never been the driver of outbreaks. The driver of outbreaks is ALWAYS a symptomatic person.” – youtu.be/JIOzN03ZWXY
The Situation @ Universities
5 October 2020 Update from 50 US universities: 3 real cases, and 69.441 FALSE positive “cases” among students. Why are students forced to self-isolate, based on PCR tests???
6 December: “All 31 Colleges of the University of Cambridge [UK], and 6 Houses of the Cambridge Theological Federation, participated in the programme. Based on these data, we did not detect any new cases of asymptomatic COVID-19 amongst 9,376 students living in College accommodation screened this week.” [source] [10 tests were originally positive, but were all found to be “false positives” after confirmatory tests.] See table below.
HealthTruth.info comment: Could this be the end of the pandemic? Due to mingling and mixing at university, a healthy natural immunity is likely to have been aquired among the students.
PCR Tests Scientifically Meaningless?
This OFF-Guardian research article COVID19 PCR Tests are Scientifically Meaningless, digs deep into the science, and painstakingly shows why we should not use these tests or even base a lockdown decisions on them. PCR is extremely sensitive, which means it can detect even the smallest pieces of DNA or RNA — but it cannot determine where these particles came from. None of the science teams of the relevant papers which are referred to in the context of SARS-CoV-2 for proof could confirm the electron-microscopic shots depicted in their in vitro experiments show purified viruses. “sleek polymerase chain reaction… tells little or nothing about how avirus multiplies, which animals carry it, [or] how it makes people sick. [It is] like trying to say whether somebody has bad breath by looking at his fingerprint.” There is no scientific proof that those RNA sequences are the causative agent of … COVID-19, and there are no distinctive specific symptoms for COVID-19. “Detection of viral RNA may not indicate the presence of infectious virus or that 2019-nCoV is the causative agent for clinical symptoms” [CDC RT-PCR Diagnostic Panel]
Many PCR tests have a “cycle quantification” (Cq) value of over 35. If you are looking for presumed RNA viruses such as SARS-CoV-2, the RNA must be converted to complementary cDNA with the enzyme Reverse Transcriptase—hence the “RT” at the beginning of “PCR” or “qPCR.” But this transformation process is widely recognised as inefficient and variable, as the amount of DNA obtained with the same RNA base material can vary widely, even by a factor of 10.
COVID cases in England aren’t rising: here’s why by Carl Heneghan, Centre for Evidence-Based Medicine 2 Aug 2020: “The government has restricted movements on millions of people in England: COVID is apparently on the rise. But what happens when you start digging into the data. I have used the following data sets to piece together the number of tests, cases and results for Pillar 1* (done in healthcare settings) and Pillar 2* (tests are done in the community)”
Carl Heneghan: COVID cases in England aren’t rising: here’s why On first glance it looks like the number of cases in Pillar 2 is trending up and Pillar 1 is trending down. This would suggest that the increase in hospitals – in the sickest (Pillar 1) – is staying the same; while in the community Pillar 2 testing is picking up milder asymptomatic disease. By the 31st July, the Pillar, 1 seven day average for testing had increased to 49,543 (a 20% increase); while the Pillar 2 had risen by much more – by 82% to 78,522 tests.
“The next graph shows what happens when you adjust for the number of tests done and then standardise to per 100,000 tests. Pillar 1 is seen to be still trending down, but Pillar 2 is now flatlining. The increase in the number of cases detected, therefore, is likely due to the increase in testing in Pillar 2.”
“Inaccuracies in the data and poor interpretation will often lead to errors in decisions about imposing restrictions” [Carl Heneghan]
The same situation in the US: “the sudden jump in cases in February correlates with the emergence of test kits sent out by the CDC. Once those test kits were used up, the number of “cases” again dried up. Then, once test kits became readily available again in early April, the number of cases skyrocketed — as you’d expect. But again, this doesn’t mean the disease was spreading like wildfire….Increased Testing = Increased ‘Cases’“
The Centre for Evidence-Based Medicine in Oxford put the doubling to the test by creating a tracker of the projection. “At the moment there is a significant divergence in the case data”. Did we not learn from prof Neil Ferguson to distrust mathematical projections? Still they are used to terrify us and justify lockdown.
Tested “cases” versus case predicted model by Patrick Vallance, the Chief Scientist “Tracking UK Covid-19 Cases” data until 19 October
The media focussed on reporting the (green) predictions, but not the real tested “cases”.
Legal PCR Test Challenges
Update 28 Nov: Portuguese Court Rules PCR Tests “Unreliable” & Quarantines “Unlawful” [Nov 11] “An appeals court in Portugal has ruled that the PCR process is not a reliable test for Sars-Cov-2, and therefore any enforced quarantine based on those test results is unlawful. Further, the ruling suggested that any forced quarantine applied to healthy people could be a violation of their fundamental right to liberty.“ “Most importantly, the judges ruled that a single positive PCR test cannot be used as an effective diagnosis of infection.” “The ruling goes on to conclude that, based on the science they read, any PCR test using over 25 cycles is totally unreliable.” THIS court ruling, based on THIS STUDY, has huge implications for other countries, and was ignored in the main stream media. [Read more above: “Review report Corman-Drosten”]
Does the UK government take notice of the above findings?
The British Government ordered over three million of test kits from China in spring, and found they are not useable.
In August they called back 750 000 PCR test kits as faulty. They seem to be spending and wasting vast amounts of money towards big companies. What are these pcr tests good for?
Australien Government Dept. of Health information
Despite the faults and problems of the PCR test, the UK government decided to spend more money on this project:
the bmj: “the plans have the potential to grow the UK’s testing capacity from the current 350 000 a day to up to 10 million tests a day by early 2021.” Critics have already rounded on the plans as “devoid of any contribution from scientists, clinicians, and public health and testing and screening experts,” and “disregarding the enormous problems with the existing testing and tracing programmes.”
Antigen Tests & Antibody Tests
What is an ANTIGEN Test? An antigen test is a diagnostic test that checks to see if you’re infected with the coronavirus. The test looks for proteins (antigens) in a sample taken from your nose or throat. Antigen tests are faster than PCR tests, but they have a higher risk of false positives (meaning that they’re more likely to say you have the infection when you don’t). This may also be called a rapid test or rapid diagnostic test. [webmd.com]
Health.com writes: “An antigen is a substance recognized by the body’s immune system, which can [then] respond by generating proteins called antibodies that specifically recognize that antigen.” The rapid test—officially known as the Sofia 2 SARS Antigen FIA …promises to “quickly detect fragments of proteins found on or within the virus by testing samples collected from the nasal cavity using swabs,” It can provide results within 15 minutes.
ANTIBODY tests, on the other hand, look for antibodies a person’s immune system has made in response to the virus—that helps doctors determine whether a person has previously been exposed to COVID-19. “A positive antigen test reflects active infection, while a positive antibody test reflects recent or past infection“
Possibilities & Theories
“The COVID-19 PCR-Test – A Shot of Nanoparticles for Your Brain?” [14 Nov]: Could it be, that the tips of the pcr test swabs contain nanoparticles, and when insterted deep through the nose to the the thin, sensitive, fragile cribriform plate (which is like an entry to the brain, perforated with fine holes), and when the long swab is turned, it depostis these near the brain? These holes are traversed by nerve cells (neurons) of the olfactory nerve. “RNA vaccines offer many advantages. The physicians would not necessarily have to inject the vaccine. Most RNA vaccines are directly nasally administered. This seems to make sense, since many infections start in the upper mucous membranes“. There are lots of links and references and some videos in this article, for example this: Johns Hopkins Researchers Engineer Tiny, Shape-Changing Machines That Deliver Medicine Efficiently to the GI Tract “Inspired by a parasitic worm that digs its sharp teeth into its host’s intestines, Johns Hopkins researchers have designed tiny, star-shaped microdevices that can latch onto intestinal mucosa and release drugs into the body.” Read on under: 6) “What Effects Can These Nanoparticles Have in Your Brain?”
Is the Covid-19 vaccine safe? It is a new mRNA gene therapy technology. Below you find data from the UK government – and a different way how to interpret them and put them into context. mRNA vaccines have never been licensed before. RNA is the only molecule known to recapitulate all biochemical functions of life: definition, control, and transmission of genetic information.
Since the Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS-1) outbreak in 2002 there have been numerous coronavirus vaccine animal studies conducted: either the animals were not completely protected, became severely ill with accelerated autoimmune conditions, or died, primarily attributed to what is called Antibody-Dependent Enhancement (ADE). The SARS-CoV-2 virus (which can cause covid-19 symptoms) is from the same cronavirus family as SARS-1. Experimental vaccines for SARS, MERS, HIV, and other diseases have not been proven effective and safe for humans.
Pfizer’sand Moderna’s mRNA vaccines are coated withPEGylated lipid nanoparticles (polyethylene glycol). This coating hides the mRNA from our immune system which ordinarily would attack and destroy kill any foreign material. PEGylated lipid nanoparticles have been shown to imbalance certain immune responses and can induce allergies and even autoimmune diseases. Neither Pfizer/BioNTech nor Moderna have ‘completely’ disclosed everything in their vaccines. [source]
The following comparison clearly shows: covid-19 is not a normal vaccine in terms of reported side effects. The diagramme for 2021 is based on less than half a year of reporting:
Figure 1: “side effects of important vaccines from the year 2000 in the WHO database VigiAccess”. Source: corona-transition.org
Normally a vaccines would need to be tested AT LEAST five years. Fast-track policy is a recipe for mass disaster. Vaccine manufacturers unlimited freedom to create, develop, and market vaccines without any liability.
WARNING: As the vaccines are gradually offered to younger people, we can expect MORE adverse reactions: “Adverse reactions were generally milder and reported less frequently in older adults (65 years and older) than in younger people.” [quote from UK government Coronavirus vaccine – weekly summary of Yellow Card report]
Six screenshots from the UK Yellow Card Analysis of the AstraZeneca vaccine, listing adverse effect on now 116 pages.
Covid-vaccines are not just “normal” vaccines like the ones we have for decades: About 200 flu vaccine fatalities were counted in 54 years ( = 4 / year) Unreported by the media, the 1000th covid vaccine fatality was registered on the UK Yellow Card scheme around 18th of April 2021.
According to the UK Yellow Card scheme, Flu vaccines caused about 4 deaths / year = 1 death in 3 months. mRNAPfizer = 236 deaths in 3 months AstraZeneca = 521 deaths in 3 months
When it comes to adverse events, covid vaccines are off the scale of traditional vaccines:
Sources: the HPV, MMR & influenza virus vaccine data until 8 June 2017 were sent from MHRA by email on request. AstraZeneca Yellow Card data, Pfizer Yellow Card data – both updated Thurdays VAERS data show more than 10 times as many covid vaccine fatalities than the usual vaccines. VAERS is the US equivalent to the UK’s Yellow Card scheme.
If you prefer watching 20 experts each giving their view on the coronavirus vaccines in less than one hour: below is a video, covering many of the vaccine aspects:
For many decades Dr. Vernon Coleman has been a “canary in the coal mine” giving early warnings about things which would possibly go wrong (like asbestos not being healthy to use). He always seems to be ahead of the game. Please do listen to his warning what the covid vaccines might do to our immune system with possibly fatal outcome – STRONG warning to humanity.

With 11 days delay, the UK government publishes the cumulative total numbers of adverse reactions and fatalities after the covid vaccinewas administered.
By 16th of June 2021, a total of 1356 fatalities were reported as covid vaccine adverse reactions in UKYellow Cards Data Analysis Prints. AstraZeneca’s DAP reports are now 116 pages long.
Quietly and ignored by the main stream media we reached 1000 UK deaths reported after receiving a covid vaccine in April. Additionally there are 13 deaths listed under “unspecified brand” and 2 brand new casualties after the 1st 100 000 were vaccinated with the Moderna vaccine:
Statistics and data are a minefield.. The data are collected and processed in the 10 days after each week ending Sunday, and published Thursdays 11 days later; if someone reports a death or reaction on day 12 or later, it is not included, but will (hopefully) be added to the totals published the following week. The Yellow Card analysis prints do not indicate, wether reactions and fatalities occurred after the 1st or after the 2nd shot. THIS makes it difficult to analyse the data.
A 2010 study of the US VAERS scheme concludes:”Adverse events from drugs and vaccines are common, but underreported. Although 25% of ambulatory patients experience an adverse drug event, less than 0.3% of all adverse drug events and 1-13% of serious events are reported to the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). Likewise, fewer than 1% of vaccine adverse events are reported … New surveillance methods for drug and vaccine adverse effects are needed. Barriers to reporting include a lack of clinician awareness, uncertainty about when and what to report, as well as the burdens of reporting: reporting is not part of clinicians’ usual workflow, takes time, and is duplicative.” VAERS is similar to the UK Yellow Card scheme, and not much has changed in the last 11 years. The real post-vaccine reactions and fatalities might be 100x higher than the reported numbers below as only 1% of adverse reactions gets submitted.
The UK MHRA reports on 1 April: “In the week since the previous summary for 14 March 2021 we have received a further 2,799 Yellow Cards for the Pfizer/BioNTech vaccine, 24,594 for the Oxford University/AstraZeneca vaccine and 54 where the brand was not specified. A higher number of doses of the Oxford University/AstraZeneca vaccine were administered in the last week than the Pfizer/BioNTech vaccine.” These late reports indicate 1) AstraZeneca contributes MUCH more than Pfizer 2) That’s a concerning amount of adverse effects after day 11.
The deaths registered above are just the tip of the iceberg: The report rate in the UK population is less than 1%:
The comparison of side effects recorded in the vaccine trials with those reported in the UK YellowCard Scheme by 28 February 2021 reveal: 1) AstraZeneca shows a multitude more side effects than the Pfizer vaccine 2) Far less than 1% of post vaccine side effects are reported in the Yellow Card scheme
Compare the %age of Yellow Card reportswith the documented %age of adverse reactions in the trialsabove! Keep in mind, that the trials used healthy volunteers.
1st covid-19 vaccine doses administered by 21 March: 15.8 million doses Oxford University/AstraZeneca 10.8 million first doses of the Pfizer/BioNTech 2.2 million second doses, mostly the Pfizer/BioNTec. Total reports UK Yellow Card up to 21 March 2021:
Screenshot of the updated UK Coronavirus Dashboard showing the R number, positive test “cases”, deaths, hospitalisations and SARS-CoV-2 tests:
the screenshot from https://coronavirus.data.gov.uk on 4 April 2021 shows: R number is below 1, “cases”, deaths and hospital admissions are past their peak.
That is 40x more deaths than expected after a flu vaccine! WHO statement from 2013: “for every 10 million individuals vaccinated [against Influenza A (H1N1)] in the UK, 21.5 cases of Guillain-Barré syndrome and 5.75 sudden deaths were expected to occur as unrelated coincidental events within 6 weeks of vaccination. 34” [VACCINE SAFETY BASICS, p 77]
In the last decades, less than 10% of vaccine reactions and fatalities have been reported with the Yellow Card scheme – nearly always they are considered “coincidental”, but not causal [BMJ]. A study found, that in the US “Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System” VAERS “fewer than 1% of vaccine adverse events are reported“ The real vaccine adverse effects and deaths will be at least 20 times higher. Vaccine authorities don’t really want to know about adverse effects. QUESTION: are UK vaccine deaths after day 8 included?
13 Feb 2021: 12 Residents Die After First COVID Vaccine at Fairways Newydd Nursing and Dementia Care Centrein Anglesey, Wales while 36 residents and 54 staff are now testing positive for COVID after an outbreak of covid-19, the North Wales Chronicle reports. Is this just a coincidence?
28 Jan 2021: 22 Deaths at Pemberley House: 22 people have died (over 1/3 of the residents!) at Pemberley House in Basingstoke / UK after receiving the covid-19 vaccine. The Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulation Agency (MHRA) said there was no suggestion the vaccine was responsible for the deaths.
1/3 of the residents died within three weeks after the covid-19 vaccination at Pemberley House: Residential, Nursing, Dementia & Respite Care [Daily Echo]
A spokesperson for the MHRA said “our surveillance does not suggest that the COVID-19 vaccines have contributed to any deaths... It is not unexpected that some of these people may naturally fall ill due to their age or underlying conditions shortly after being vaccinated, without the vaccine playing any role in that.” Cllr James said “The important thing now is to ensure that nothing stops the rollout of the vaccine...I think the vaccine programme seems to be working very well. It is some good news at last.” [Daily Echo 28 Jan 2021]
“after the first of two doses of the Moderna COVID-19 vaccine, 80% of Phase 1 participants receiving the 100 microgram (mcg) dose developed systemic side effects.21 After the second dose, 100% reported side effects ranging from fatigue (80%), chills (80%), headache (60%) and myalgia or muscle pain (53%).“ “One of the participants in Pfizer’s vaccine trial “woke up with chills, shaking so hard he cracked a tooth after taking the second dose.” [source]

“This is not a vaccine. This is gene therapy. It’s a chemotherapy agent that is gene therapy… What is this doing? It’s sending a strand of synthetic RNA into the human being and is invoking within the human being, the creation of the S1 spike protein, which is a pathogen. It’s a toxin inside of human beings. This is not only not keeping you from getting sick, it’s making your body produce the thing that makes you sick.” [Dr. David Martin]

Quotes from the official UK Government “Information for UK recipients on Pfizer/BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine“: COVID-19 mRNA Vaccine BNT162b2 concentrate for solution for injection. Read all of this leaflet carefully before you receive this vaccine because it contains important information for you.
As the above quoted patient information leaflet is a bit vague, below are quotes from the detailed UK healthcare professionals.
Check the statistical details in the two REG 174 UK government infos below, Pfizer and AstraZeneca vaccines,5.1 efficacy. The “case definition” of what the vaccine aims to prevent does NOT include serious adverse effects of covid-19. “Efficacy measures the performance of a treatment under ideal and controlled circumstances, while Effectiveness is the performance under real-world conditions.“
All quotes in the white box below about the Pfizer vaccine are from the UK government website, selected and important passages marked in bold by HealthTruth.info.
Quotes from REG 174 Information for UK Healthcare professionals for COVID-19 mRNA Vaccine BNT162b2 [from Pfizer] [bold/colourhighlights added by HealthTruth.info] 2. COVID-19 mRNA Vaccine BNT162b2 is highly purified single-stranded, 5’-capped messenger RNA (mRNA) produced by cell-free in vitro transcription from the corresponding DNA templates, encoding the viral spike (S) protein of SARS-CoV-2.
4.4 … General recommendations appropriate medical treatment and supervision should always be readily available in case of a rare anaphylactic event following the administration of the vaccine. The administration of COVID-19 mRNA Vaccine BNT162b2 should be postponed in individuals suffering from acute severe febrile illness. Individuals receiving anticoagulant therapy or those with a bleeding disorder that would contraindicate intramuscular injection, should not be given the vaccine unless the potential benefit clearly outweighs the risk of administration. Immunocompromised persons, including individuals receiving immunosuppressant therapy, may have a diminished immune response to the vaccine. No data are available about concomitant use of immunosuppressants. As with any vaccine, vaccination with COVID-19 mRNA Vaccine BNT162b2 may not protect all vaccine recipients. No data are available … for persons that have previously received a full or partial vaccine series with another COVID-19 vaccine.
4.5 Interaction with other medicinal products and other forms of interaction No interaction studies have been performed.
4.6Fertility, pregnancy and lactation Pregnancy: There are no or limited amount of data. Animal reproductive toxicity studies have not been completed. COVID-19 mRNA Vaccine BNT162b2is not recommended during pregnancy. For women of childbearing age, pregnancy should be excluded before vaccination. In addition, women of childbearing age should be advised to avoid pregnancy for at least 2 months after their second dose. Breast-feeding: It is unknown whether COVID-19 mRNA Vaccine BNT162b2is excreted in human milk Fertility: It is unknown whether COVID-19 mRNA Vaccine BNT162b2has an impact on fertility.
4.8 Undesirable effects: The most frequent adverse reactions in participants 16 years of age and older were Very common = red: pain at the injection site (>80%), fatigue (>60%) headache (>50%) myalgia (>30%) chills (>30%) arthralgia (>20%) andpyrexia (>10%) and were usually mild or moderate in intensity and resolved within a few days after vaccination. Common (10%-1%): Nausea, Redness at injection site; injection site swelling ) Uncommon (1% – 0.1%): Lymphadenopathy, Malaise Rare (≥1/10,000 to <1/1,000): Acute peripheral facial paralysis (or palsy)four participants in the COVID-19 mRNA Vaccinegroup Very rare (<1/10,000): no reports
5.1 Pharmacodynamic properties ATC code: not yet assigned [HealthTruth.info comment: it was not published WHAT they used as a placebo in the study – probably the MenACWY vaccine against encephalitis? See below]. excluded participants who were immunocompromised In study 2, from 44 000 participants, 21.8% were ≥ 65 years. Efficacy: There were 8 confirmed COVID-19 cases from 18,242 in the COVID-19 mRNA Vaccine group, and 162 cases in the placebo group of 18,379 respectively. [Please see the HealthTruth.info comment: below.]
Reporting of suspected adverse reactions …Healthcare professionals are asked to report any suspected adverse reactions via the Coronavirus Yellow Card reporting sitecoronavirus-yellowcard.mhra.gov.uk or search for MHRA Yellow Card in the Google Play or Apple App Storeand include the vaccine brand and batch/Lot number if available
Mechanism of action: The nucleoside-modified messenger RNA in COVID-19 mRNA Vaccine BNT162b2 is formulated in lipid nanoparticles, which enable delivery of the RNA into host cells to allow expression of the SARSCoV-2 S antigen. The vaccine elicits both neutralizing antibody and cellular immune responses to the spike (S) antigen, which may contribute to protection against COVID-19 disease.
Confirmed cases were determined by Reverse Transcription-Polymerase Chain Reaction (RT-PCR) and at least 1 symptom consistent with COVID-19disease*. *Case definition [of covid-19] (at least 1 of): fever, new or increased cough, new or increased shortness of breath; chills, new or increased muscle pain, new loss of taste or smell, sore throat, diarrhoea or vomiting + a positive RT-PCR test result.

Alternative Pfizer Vaccine Analysis
Here is a fresh look at the above Pfizer trial data: 8 covid cases / 18242 x100 = 0.044% in vaccine group 162covid cases / 18379 x100 = 0.88% in control group WITHOUT vaccine, 0.88% of v- group = 160.5 WOULD have got covid, That is 152.5 people (more than the 8 from 18242) = 0.836% were saved by the vaccine. To save ONE person from covid, we needed to vaccinate 119.6 people (NNT = “Number Needed to Treat“) [18242/152.5=119.6] 118people did not have any benefit from the Pfizer vaccine, but all the side effects listed above under 4.8 (plus unknown long term side effects)
Looking at the POSITIVE side: 99.1% of unvaccinated people did NOT get Covid-19disease in the Pfizer trial.
So much about the UK government information about the Pfizer COVID-19 mRNA Vaccine BNT162b2, “this temporary authorisation grants permission for the medicine to be used for active immunization to prevent COVID-19 disease caused by SARS-CoV-2 virus in individuals aged 16 years of age and over” Further down is the same info about AstraZeneca’s vaccine: go compare:
The Defender reports on 9 Feb 2021: Two women, both of whom were described as healthy before they received the Moderna vaccine… ages 72 and 48, are now being treated for immune thrombocytopenia (ITP), a condition that develops when the immune system attacks platelets (blood component essential for clotting) or the cells that create them, according to the Times…. ITP is a well-known adverse event associated with vaccinations. Pfizer said… “at this time, we have not been able to establish a causal association with our vaccine.”

4.6 Fertility, pregnancy and lactation: There is a limited experience with the use of COVID-19 Vaccine AstraZeneca in pregnant women. Definitive animal studies have not been completed yet. The full relevance of animal studies to human risk with vaccines for COVID-19 remains to be established. Preliminary animal studies do not indicate direct or indirect harmful effects with respect to fertility.
4.8 Undesirable effects Demographic characteristics: 9.7% were 65 years of age or older. The most frequently reported adverse reactions were very common (≥1/10): injection site tenderness (>60%); injection site pain, headache, fatigue (>50%); myalgia, malaise (>40%); pyrexia, chills (>30%); and arthralgia, nausea (>20%). The majority of adverse reactions were mild to moderate in severity and usually resolved within a few days of vaccination. compared with the first dose, adverse reactions reported after the second dose were milder and reported less frequently.

5.1 Pharmacodynamic properties: ATC code: J07BX03 Mechanism of action COVID-19 Vaccine AstraZeneca is a monovalent vaccine composed of a single recombinant, replication-deficient chimpanzee adenovirus (ChAdOx1) vector encoding the S glycoprotein of SARS CoV 2. Following administration, the S glycoprotein of SARS CoV 2 is expressed locally stimulating neutralising antibody and cellular immune responses.
Clinical efficacy: [what happened to the COV004 group?] control (meningococcal vaccine or saline) Because of logistical constraints, the interval between dose 1 and dose 2 ranged from 4 to 26 weeks. Overall, among the participants who received COVID-19 Vaccine AstraZeneca… 5.9% [were] aged 65 or older [in 4.8 it says: 9.7%?] Exploratory analyses showed that increased immunogenicity was associated with a longer dose interval The number of COVID-19 cases (2) in 660 participants ≥65 years old were too few to draw conclusions on efficacy. An immunological correlate of protection has not been established; therefore the level of immune response that provides protection against COVID-19 is unknown.

Printed patient information of the ChAdOx1-S covid-19 vaccine from Astra Zeneca. For more information see below in this chapter.
30 Jan 2021: a sad record of side effects of Pfizer’s covid-19 vaccine in Europe under the brand name “Tozinameran” shows the huge number of health care workers affected – nearly 4x more women then men suffer side effects (probably due to the high percentage of female nurses and carers who had to take the vaccine?) From https://dap.ema.europa.eu/analytics/saw.dll?PortalPages
“We conclude that the Pfizer vaccines, for the elderly, killed during the 5-week vaccination period about 40 times more people than the disease itself would have killed, and about 260 times more people than the disease among the younger age class” [source]
“Those below 13… have an increased adverse reaction rate, including death, to vaccines as shown by multi-decennial data from the VAERS reports in the USA.” [19 Feb 2021]
One of the speakers in the Video above presented this summary
“Those below 13… have an increased adverse reaction rate, including death, to vaccines“
Introducing COMIRNATY®, the EU Brand Name for Pfizer & BioNTech’s COVID-19 Vaccine [28 Dec 2020] BioNTech and Pfizer commented on the vaccine’s brand name, “The vaccine will be marketed in the EU under the brand name COMIRNATY®, which represents a combination of the terms COVID-19, mRNA, community and immunity, to highlight the first authorization of a messenger RNA (mRNA) vaccine, as well as the joint global efforts that made this achievement possible with unprecedented rigor and efficiency, and with safety at the forefront” The COVID-19 vaccine’s proposed nonproprietary name (pINN), tozinameran (toe zi na’ mer an), was also developed by Brand Institute and its wholly owned subsidiary, Drug Safety Institute [see table above]
On 30 December the four UK chief medical officers announced that the second doses of the covid vaccines should be given towards the end of 12 weeks rather than in the previously recommended 3-4 weeks. “The trials of the Oxford-AstraZeneca vaccine did include different spacing between doses, finding that a longer gap (two to three months) led to a greater immune response,” Both vaccines “offer considerable protection after a single dose, at least in the short term.” In its “green book” Public Health England said that during the phase III trial most of the vaccine failures were in the days immediately after the first dose, indicating that the short term protection starts around day 10.6 Looking at the data from day 15 to 21, it calculated that the efficacy against symptomatic covid-19 [after the first injection] was around 89%
This graphic on page 31 on the study “Single dose administration, and the influence of the timing…” looks complicated – the efficacy (hollow dots) starts below zero in the first days and keeps increasing with time.
1 Feb 2021: “Single Dose Administration, And The Influence Of The Timing Of The Booster Dose On Immunogenicity and Efficacy Of ChAdOx1 nCoV-19 (AZD1222) Vaccine” [The Lancet]: “Vaccine efficacy after a single standard dose of vaccine from day 22 to day 90 post vaccination was 76% (59%, 86%), and modelled analysis indicated that protection did not wane during this initial 3 month period. Antibody levels were maintained during this period with minimal waning by day 90″ “Immunogenicity data showed binding antibody responses more than 2-fold higher after an interval of 12 or more weeks compared with and interval of less than 6 weeks.” HealthTruth.info comment: the “Conflict of Interest” paragraph of the above quoted paper looks impressively long…
4 December: Since the above video was recorded, the BioNTech/Pfizer vaccine composition, including the nanoparticle composition, has been released by the MHRA but it does not include concentrations of ingredients making it impossible to assess toxicology. The ingredients will include 30 micrograms mRNA in each dose, along with:
Above text, the video + detailed transcript are on ANHinternational.org/news/have-you-decided-what-youll-do-or-say-if-offered-a-covid-vaccine/ Quotes from the NHA video transcript above: “It’s essential that all known risks, relating both to the pathogen but also to the particular vaccine in question, are put in the public domain… That means putting the raw data into the public domain so it can be analysed by independent scientists. To-date, none of the full datasets have been released.“ “The only things we’ve got to go on so far are press releases that are deeply deficient in data on both risks and benefits.” “History tells us it can be years before safety concerns are exposed, as we discovered with the swine flu vaccine Pandemrix and narcolepsy in children.”
HealthTruth.info conclusion: it is common sense not to overburden the immune system with more than one lot of vaccine ingredients at a time, but leave plenty (the more, the better) of time between each vaccine to allow the body to detox various vaccine ingredients. It would be wise to use the time before a second shot to analyse what others have experienced, and check the outcome of the animal tests.
Definition: “Prion diseases (or transmissible spongiform encephalopathies) are a group of uniformly fatal neurodegenerative diseases characterised by progressive dementia and motor dysfunction. These diseases occur in spontaneous, genetic, and acquired forms. Patients commonly present with behavioural or personality changes, myoclonus, visual disturbances, movement problems, and/or incoordination. Survival from first symptom is typically <1 year in sporadic and acquired cases.” [British Medical Journal 27 Feb 2020]
“COVID-19 RNA Based Vaccines and the Risk of Prion Disease“ [research article 27 Dec 2020] ABSTRACT: “Development of new vaccine technology has been plagued with problems in the past. The current RNA based SARSCoV-2 vaccines were approved in the US using an emergency order without extensive long term safety testing. In this paper the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine was evaluated for the potential to induce prion-based disease in vaccine recipients.
“The RNA sequence of the vaccine as well as the spike protein target interaction were analyzed for the potential to convert intracellular RNA binding proteins TAR DNA binding protein (TDP-43) and Fused in Sarcoma (FUS) into their pathologic prion conformations. The results indicate that the vaccine RNA has specific sequences that may induce TDP-43 and FUS to fold into their pathologic prion confirmations…” “The spike protein, created by the translation of the vaccine RNA, binds angiotensinconverting enzyme 2 (ACE2), a zinc containing enzyme. This interaction has the potential to increase intracellular zinc. Zinc ions have been shown to cause the transformation of TDP-43 to its pathologic prion configuration. The folding of TDP-43 and FUS into their pathologic prion confirmations is known to cause ALS, front temporal lobar degeneration, Alzheimer’s disease and other neurological degenerative diseases. The enclosed finding as well as additional potential risks leads the author to believe that regulatory approval of the RNA based vaccines for SARS-CoV-2 was premature and that the vaccine may cause much more harm than benefit“
The ALC-0315 (4-hydroxybutyl)azanediyl)bis(hexane-6,1-diyl)bis(2-hexyldecanoate) is a hexane containing compound and these are known to be potentially neurotoxic. ALC-0159 = 2[(polyethylene glycol)-2000]-N,N-ditetradecylacetamide contains polyethylene glycol (PEG) that is associated with hypersensitivity and allergenic reactions. The toxicological profile of the mRNA delivery system cannot be determined because neither have the concentrations been declared, nor has the nanoparticle delivery system, surface charges and other physicochemical characteristics been declared. These may dramatically increase the toxicological profile. [source]
“The covid-19 vaccine is not a fragment of a microorganism being injected to achieve immunity and a reduction in disease transmission.Instead it is a piece of synthetic genetic code being delivered to the nucleus of the cell via nanotechnology and is therefore genetic engineering. It does not produce immunity and it does not prevent disease transmission.This meets the legal definition of a “medical device: it does not meet the legal definition of a “vaccine”.” [21 January 2021 Anna de Buisseret]
“…They developed symptoms of “anaphylactoid reaction” shortly after receiving the vaccine…” “Any person with a history of anaphylaxis to a vaccine, medicine or food should not receive the Pfizer BioNTech vaccine. A second dose should not be given to anyone who has experienced anaphylaxis following administration of the first dose of this vaccine.” [Evening Standard, 10 December]
21 Dec 2020: Suspicions grow that nanoparticles in Pfizer’s COVID-19 vaccine trigger rare allergic reactions “Severe allergy-like reactions in at least eight people who received the COVID-19 vaccine produced by Pfizer and BioNTech over the past 2 weeks may be due to a compound in the packaging of the messenger RNA (mRNA) that forms the vaccine’s main ingredient.” “Polyethylene glycol (PEG) has never been used before in an approved vaccine, but it is found in many drugs that have occasionally triggered anaphylaxis—a potentially life-threatening reaction that can cause rashes, a plummeting blood pressure, shortness of breath, and a fast heartbeat. Some allergists and immunologists believe a small number of people previously exposed to PEG may have high levels of antibodies against PEG, putting them at risk of an anaphylactic reaction to the vaccine.” [More on ScienceMag.org]
Children’s Health Defense reports: mRNA vaccines undergoing Covid-19 clinical trials, including the Moderna vaccine, rely on a nanoparticle-based “carrier system” containing a synthetic chemical called polyethylene glycol (PEG). The use of PEG in drugs and vaccines is increasingly controversial due to the well-documented incidence of adverse PEG-related immune reactions, including life-threatening anaphylaxis. Roughly seven in ten Americans may already be sensitized to PEG, which may result in reduced efficacy of the vaccine and an increase in adverse side effects. If a PEG-containing mRNA vaccine for Covid-19 gains FDA approval, the uptick in exposure to PEG will be unprecedented—and potentially disastrous. PEG is used in drugs, for example in Bayer’s laxative MiraLAX (a medication used for constipation). Many parents of chronically constipated children have accused MiraLAX of provoking severe neuropsychiatric symptoms in their offspring, including mood swings, rage, phobias and paranoia.
On 22 October the FDA in the US has published their vaccine side effects draft on page 16: fda.gov/media/143557/download. For the UK, read on below:Six people died during trials of the coronavirus vaccine produced by the American pharmaceutical company “Pfizer” and the German “BioNTech” company, the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) said on Wednesday.
In a statement released by US channel Al-Hurra, the FDA confirmed that among the deceased was a participant who was obese and suffering from arteriosclerosis and died three days after taking the first dose of the vaccine. The FDA added that two participants died from heart attacks or stroke… “Of the six dead, three are over the age of 55,” the FDA clarified. [source]
On the 3rd December, Del Bigtree from TheHighWire reveals shocking details of the covid-19 vaccine trials: they only count side effects from day 42 after the 1st vaccine
Dr. Wodarg and Dr. Yeadon request a stop of all corona vaccination studies and call for co-signing the petition [1 December 2020] The concerns are directed in particular to the following points: – The formation of so-called “non-neutralizing antibodies” can lead to an exaggerated immune reaction, especially when the test person is confronted with the real, “wild” virus after vaccination. This so-called antibody-dependent amplification, ADE, has long been known from experiments with corona vaccines in cats, for example. In the course of these studies all cats that initially tolerated the vaccination well died after catching the wild virus. – The vaccinations are expected to produce antibodies against spike proteins of SARS-CoV-2. However, spike proteins also contain syncytin-homologous proteins, which are essential for the formation of the placenta in mammals such as humans. It must be absolutely ruled out that a vaccine against SARS-CoV-2 could trigger an immune reaction against syncytin-1, as otherwise infertility of indefinite duration could result in vaccinated women. – The mRNA vaccines from BioNTech/Pfizer contain polyethylene glycol (PEG). 70% of people develop antibodies against this substance – this means that many people can develop allergic, potentially fatal reactions to the vaccination. – The much too short duration of the study does not allow a realistic estimation of the late effects. As in the narcolepsy cases after the swine flu vaccination, millions of healthy people would be exposed to an unacceptable risk if an emergency approval were to be granted and the possibility of observing the late effects of the vaccination were to follow. Nevertheless, BioNTech/Pfizer apparently submitted an application for emergency approval on December 1, 2020.
“Syncytin-1 is a protein that functions for placental development and therefore is essential for fertility. Fifteen years ago, it was proposed that a synthetic Syncytin-1 vaccine could be developed as a contraceptive that would work to produce antibodies against human Syncytin-1. [59]” [source]
“There is absolutely no need for vaccines to extinguish the pandemic. I’ve never heard such nonsense talked about vaccines. You do not vaccinate people who aren’t at risk from a disease. You also don’t set about planning to vaccinate millions of fit and healthy people with a vaccine that hasn’t been extensively tested on human subjects.” [Dr. Mike Yeadon]
In the article Will covid-19 vaccines save lives? Current trials aren’t designed to tell us (21 Oct) the British Medical Journal BMJ writes: To the public this seems fairly obvious. “The primary goal of a covid-19 vaccine is to keep people from getting very sick and dying,” “The current phase III trials are not actually set up to prove either (table 1). None of the trials currently under way are designed to detect a reduction in any serious outcome such as hospital admissions, use of intensive care, or deaths. Nor are the vaccines being studied to determine whether they can interrupt transmission of the virus.” “Hospital admissions and deaths from covid-19 are simply too uncommon in the population being studied for an effective vaccine to demonstrate statistically significant differences in a trial of 30 000 people.”
In a new research article published in Microbiology & Infectious Diseases, veteran immunologist J. Bart Classen expresses similar concerns and writes that “RNA-based COVID vaccines have the potential to cause more disease than the epidemic of COVID-19.” Classen warns that the RNA-based vaccine technology could create “new potential mechanisms” of vaccine adverse events that may take years to come to light.
Classen summarises his research article with “The spike protein encoded by the vaccine binds angiotensin converting enzyme 2 (ACE2), an enzyme which contains zinc molecules [8]. The binding of spike protein to ACE2 has the potential to release the zinc molecule, an ion that causes TDP-43 to assume its pathologic prion transformation [9]” Referring to the 2001 anthrax threat, Classen concludes: “ “The vaccine could be a bioweapon and even more dangerous than the original infection.”
Researchers have tried to develop SARS vaccines in the past, resulting in “vaccine enhancement“, where the vaccine makes the disease worse when a vaccinated person is infected with the virus.

Pfizer COVID vaccine trial shows alarming evidence of pathogenic priming in older adults (11 Dec 2020): There’s been a serious terminology problem with “immuneenhancement” which sounds like something helpful to the immune system. In fact, it is quite the opposite. The problem is, in reality “disease enhancement”. Disease enhancement now appears to be caused by initial exposure to a pathogen’s proteins, or parts of proteins, which primes the body to autoimmunity. That is “pathogenic priming.” In COVID-19, every protein in the SARS-CoV-2 has at least one epitope that matches human proteins someplace in the human body. About one-third of the epitopes in SARS-CoV-2 virus that match human proteins match immune system proteins… The short-term study excludes any means of detecting whether the initial exposure may play a fundamental root cause role in setting up patients for life-long chronic illness. More serious adverse events were seen with the second dose.

Professor Jonathan Heeney, Head of the Laboratory of Viral Zoonotics at the University of Cambridge, said: “If you make antibodies against the spike, they can end up binding to it and helping the virus invade important immune cells known as monocyte-macrophages. Rather than destroying the virus, these cells can then end up being reprogrammed by the viruses, exacerbating the immune response and making the disease much, much worse than it would otherwise be.”
Children’s Health Defense Team reports on 25 Sept: 38 Covid-19 vaccines are undergoing clinical evaluation. “Oxford and AstraZeneca called a temporary halt to their clinical trials in five countries. The brief hold was prompted by a UK participant’s report, after her second dose of vaccine, of a serious adverse event—a demyelinating condition called transverse myelitis (TM) associated with pain, muscle weakness, paralysis and bowel and bladder problems. Two-thirds of those who experience TM remain permanently disabled.
AstraZeneca also disclosed that the September pause was actually the second time-out in two months. The first incident, which initially went unpublicized [until it was leaked], occurred in July when another UK participant experienced TM after one dose of vaccine and ended up with a brand-new diagnosis of multiple sclerosis (MS).”
The Hal Turne Radio Show adds (20 Sept): According to sources who claim to be familiar with the vaccine trials, the second volunteer suddenly started saying “They’ve killed God; I can’t feel God anymore – my Soul is dead” after the vaccine.
The trial’s Patient Information Sheet (11 Sept) writes: The vaccine tested in the above mentioned research study is “ChAdOx1 nCoV-19” made from a virus (ChAdOx1), which is a weakened version of a common cold virus (adenovirus) from chimpanzees that has been genetically changed. To this virus genes are addedthat make proteins from the COVID-19 virus called Spike glycoprotein (S). “we are hoping to make the body recognise and develop an immune response to the Spike protein that will help stop the SARS-CoV-2 virus from entering human cells” “We are not sure what dose of vaccine is most likely to be protective” “we don’t know how much of an immune response is needed for protection” “We don’t know which dose, if any, will provide protection.”
The control (comparison) group is NOT a placebo, but MenACWY, a licensed vaccine against group A, C, W and Y meningococcus (MenACWY) as an ‘active control’ vaccine. MenACWY has been given routinely to teenagers in the UK since 2015 against one of the most common causes of meningitis and sepsis.
“by comparing COVID-19 disease rates, immune responses and post-vaccination symptoms between participants receiving ChAdOx1 nCoV-19 and MenACWY we will get a better understanding of how well ChAdOx1 nCoV-19 is working.” [source]
Reuters reports: “SAO PAULO/FRANFURT – Brazilian health authority Anvisa said on Wednesday that a volunteer in a clinical trial of the COVID-19 vaccine developed by AstraZeneca AZN.L and Oxford University had died but added that the trial would continue.” (21 October 2020)
“How COVID-19 Vaccine Trials Are Rigged” (27 October) “those receiving the vaccine in these trials are young and healthy individuals“ “the way trial protocols are designed suggests these vaccines will not have a significant impact on infection rates, hospitalizations or deaths. The only criterion for a successful COVID-19 vaccine is a reduction of symptoms shared by both COVID-19 and the common cold. In AstraZeneca’s case, the interim analysis includes 50 vaccine recipients. The vaccine will be a success if 12 or fewer develop symptoms after exposure to SARS-CoV-2, compared to 19 in the 25-person control group. “Three of the vaccine protocols — Moderna, Pfizer, and AstraZeneca — do not require that their vaccine prevent serious disease only that they prevent moderate symptoms which may be as mild as cough, or headache” “each study intends to complete interim and primary analyses that at most include 164 participants.” [normally trials would range from 30,000 to 60,000!] “Moderna’s success margin is for 13 or less of those 53 to develop symptoms“ “These trials all clearly focus on eliminating symptoms of COVID-19, and not infections“ “AstraZeneca is masking potential side effects is by administering the vaccine along with certain drugs. In one of its study arms, subjects are given acetaminophen every six hours for the first 24 hours after inoculation.” “one-third of people vaccinated with the COVID-19 vaccine without acetaminophen experienced moderate or severe chills, fatigue, headache, malaise, and/or feverishness... That’s a lot, in a young and healthy group of people“ “after the first of two doses of the Moderna COVID-19 vaccine, 80% of Phase 1 participants receiving the 100 microgram (mcg) dose developed systemic side effects.21 After the second dose, 100% reported side effects ranging from fatigue (80%), chills (80%), headache (60%) and myalgia or muscle pain (53%).“ “One of the participants in Pfizer’s vaccine trial “woke up with chills, shaking so hard he cracked a tooth after taking the second dose.” “some COVID-19 vaccine candidates might put certain people at a higher risk of acquiring HIV, the virus that causes AIDS.26,27,28“ “the trial designs are such that the vaccines will get a passing grade even if their efficacy is minimal.” [source]
Jon Rappoport reports on 11 Nov: “According to the protocols for their studies, … a vaccine could meet the companies’ benchmark for success if it lowered the risk of mild Covid-19, but was never shown to reduce moderate or severe forms of the disease, or the risk of hospitalization, admissions to the intensive care unit or death.” The trials are designed to show effectiveness in preventing mild cases of COVID, which nobody should care about, because mild cases naturally run their course and cause no harm. THERE IS NO NEED FOR A VACCINE THAT PREVENTS MILD CASES. Jon’s blog refers to an “opinion piece” in the New York Times.

Drug maker GlaxoSmithKline may need to slaughter half a million sharks to harvest squalene, an oil made in shark livers, to make a new line of COVID jabs. Glaxo mixes squalene with a witches’ brew of proprietary surfactants to produce its controversial AS03 vaccine adjuvant. Adjuvants… are associated with a variety of autoimmune diseases. Scientific studies have linked squalene adjuvants to Gulf War syndrome and to a wave of debilitating neurological disorders including epidemics of narcolepsy. [source] A recent study links squalene to carcinomas.
National Georgaphics reports (5 Nov 2020): Horseshoe crab blood is key to making a COVID-19 vaccine—but the ecosystem may suffer. Conservationists worry the crustaceans, which are vital food sources for many species, will decline in number. These crustaceans’ milky-blue blood provides the only known natural source of limulus amebocyte lysate, a substance that detects a contaminant called endotoxin. If even tiny amounts of endotoxin—a type of bacteria—make their way into vaccines, injectable drugs, or other sterile pharmaceuticals such as artificial knees and hips, the results can be deadly. “All pharmaceutical companies around the world rely on these crabs. As many as 30 percent of the bled crabs ultimately died
For example Pfizer: In the area of product safety, Pfizer’s biggest scandal involved defective heart valves sold by its Shiley subsidiary that led to the deaths of more than 100 people… the company had deliberately misled regulators about the hazards. Also on Pfizer’s list of scandals are a 2012 bribery settlement; massive tax avoidance; and lawsuits alleging that during a meningitis epidemic in Nigeria in the 1990s the company tested a risky new drug on children without consent from their parents. “…scores of patients died from acute liver failure said to be caused by the drug [Rezulin]. In 2008 Pfizer announced that it was setting aside $894 million to settle the lawsuits that had been filed in connection with Bextra and Celebrex. An article in the Saturday Review in 1957 denounced the company for tactics such as running ads for its antibiotics that displayed the names of doctors who were supposedly endorsing the product but who turned out to be fictitious. In 1976 Pfizer was one of the many companies that disclosed that it had made questionable payments to foreign government officials. The company said that about $265,000 had been paid to officials in three countries
In 2004 Pfizer’s Warner-Lambert subsidiary agreed to pay $430 million to resolve criminal and civil charges that it paid physicians to prescribe its epilepsy drug Neurontin to patients with ailments for which the medication was not approved. In 2009 Pfizer agreed to pay $2.3 billion to resolve criminal and civil charges relating to the improper marketing of Bextra and three other medications. In 2010 Pfizer disclosed that during a six-month period the previous year it had paid $20 million to some 4,500 doctors and other medical professionals for consulting and speaking on the company’s behalf. Environmental groups in New Jersey have criticized as inadequate a clean-up plan devised by Pfizer and the EPA for the American Cyanamid Superfund site in Bridgewater, which is considered one of the worst toxic waste sites in the country. …and the list goes on – More on www.corp-research.org/pfizer
A world wide SARS-CoV-2 lineages tracing of about 79 000 samples in over 80 countries since 24 December 2019 shows, that after six months the original Wuhan virus has mutated into 100 lines, named Lineage A and Lineage B. Johannes Kreis believes, the original virus is not around any more (SARS-CoV2 – in 6 Monaten über 100 verschiedene Virenstämme). By the end of 2020 we can assume that covid-19 will have mutated into over 200 strands.
This study shows SARS-CoV-2 genome mutations (4 March 2020)
Another study: 2019 Novel Coronavirus Is Undergoing Active Recombination (4th of March) found that “the SARS-CoV-2 haplotype network has obvious characteristics of single origin from haplotype hap_011: (1) the network is star-like, centralized on the haplotype hap_011; (2) hap_011 has the largest sample size and the majority of the samples are from Hubei province, where the outbreak originated… The single origin of SARS-CoV-2 indicates that persistent animal-to-human transmission is unlikely; otherwise, multiple nodes with the above characteristics should be observed… This report provides the first evidence for genetic recombination—a new way of evolution besides mutation in SARS-CoV-2.” That means: occasionally different virus mutations interact with each other, causing new recombined strands with unknown characteristics.
Covid-19 is an RNA virus, like the flu and measles,famous for their rapid and numerous mutations compared with DNA viruses, such as herpes, smallpox, and human papillomavirus (HPV). It is their very nature to mutate – more likely into a weaker version (which is observed in August, that despite new “cases” surging, covid death numbers keep falling). Mutations commonly appear and die out again quickly.
This means that every vaccine will always be multiple generations behind, and therefore per definition outdated. Dr. Mark Schleiss, a pediatric infectious disease specialist and investigator with the Institute for Molecular Virology at the University of Minnesota, says: ‘In the world of RNA viruses, change is the norm. We expect RNA viruses to change frequently. That’s just their nature.’ But possible life long immune system troubles caused by a vaccine may stay with us.
A “safe” vaccine needs at least five years to develop. If the vaccine works with young healthy volunteers (who might not even need it), it is no proof that it will be of any benefit to the oder generation, especially those with underlying conditions. We might find severe auto-immune side effects of the vaccine, and possibly reduced fertility in the next generation. Dr. Kendrick in an interview: “They have been trying to get a vaccine for HIV for the last 30 years and they have not managed it yet. There is a reason for that, and it is probably the same reason why they will not get a vaccine for this.” Shibo Jiang in ‘nature’: “I have worked to develop vaccines and treatments for coronaviruses since 2003, when the severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) outbreak happened… Safety always comes first.“ “Standard protocols are essential for safeguarding health. Before allowing use of a COVID-19 vaccine in humans, regulators should evaluate safety with a range of virus strains and in more than one animal model. They should also demand strong preclinical evidence that the experimental vaccines prevent infection.” “the old saying holds: measure twice, cut once.”
Global analytics firm Clarivate took a look at vaccines from two companies that have entered clinical trials—Moderna and Inovio—and came to a sobering conclusion: It will take at least five years for either vaccine candidate to complete the development process through full regulatory approval. Using a tool it developed called Cortellis Analytics, Clarivate estimated that Moderna currently has just a 5% probability of success with its COVID-19 vaccine mRNA-1273, and that the time window for approval would be 5.2 years. The other vaccine candidate that Clarivate evaluated was Inovio’s DNA vaccine INO-4800, which the company moved into clinical testing last week. Clarivate forecasts a probability of success of 15% for INO-4800 and an approval timeline of 5.5 years. As of April 8 there are 185 companies and research institutes working on 156 COVID-19 medicines and vaccines. [FiercePharma.com, 17 April 2020]
Concerns of fertility are addressed by Dr. Wolfgang Wodarg in TheHighWire on 3 December (after one hour into the news), as the covid-19 vaccine targets the proteine 22, which looks very similar to the proteine which is essential for building the placenta boundary when a woman becomes pregnant (syncytin-homologous protein).
Below is a VERY interesting enquiry about the virus used to develop the Pfizer vaccine:
UK MHRA CONFESSES THAT THE PFIZER VACCINE mRNA ELEMENT IS A COMPUTER GENERATED GENOMIC SEQUENCE AMPLIFIED FROM A RNA FRAGMENT FOUND IN ONE EXPERIMENTAL STUDY FROM WUHAN (Feb 2020)
Frances Leader writes in her HIVE BLOG: “When I read the Wuhan study in Feb 2020 I was mortified by the monkey kidney & foetal cell-lines which were used as a “culture” before rt-PCR amplification. Isolation was never satisfactory at any stage thereafter. I honestly felt sick. The genome sequence was computed from this. I set about proving that the vaccine has been created from a computer generated genomic sequence & not one isolated from an infected person, either in Wuhan or anywhere else in the world since.”
“The DNA template (acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus2,GenBank: MN9089473) was generated via a combination of gene synthesis and recombinant DNA technology“ [MHRA]
By the time the Covid-19 vaccine was rolled out from December 2020, the actual virus SARS-CoV-2 has become insignificant and not virulent any more, and the majority of the population has already gained natural immunity.
Interesting timing of previous vaccine introductions:
An old strategy: when “it is all over”, a vaccine is introduced, and we might be told the vaccine “eradicated” the disease.
Children’s Health Defense reports: The coronavirus vaccine producer ‘Moderna’ chose Haydon (like the other volunteers) for the study because of the robust good health. He was among the 15 volunteers in the high dose group. Within 45 days, three of these—a shocking 20%—experienced “serious” adverse events according to Moderna’s press release meaning they required hospitalization or medical intervention. Less than 12 hours after vaccination, Hayden suffered muscle aches, vomiting, spiked a 103.2 degree fever and lost consciousness.
Dr. Mercola writes in an analysis on 9 October: “Offit warns there could be problems with Moderna’s and BioNTech’s messenger RNA (mRNA) vaccines because they have extraordinary shipping and handling needs that include using dry ice. “We’ve never done that before in this country,” he told MarketWatch.15 “Never.”
Below is a STRONG warning what could happen if people get a flu vaccine AND a second vaccine (like the coronavirus vaccine) in the same season: the deaths rate could rise significantly:
Flu vaccine deaths according to the US VAERS spiked in 2010 when a second vaccine against Swine Flu was given. This is a warning what is likely to happen if people who got the flu shot will receive an additional vaccine against coronavirus. chart presented by Brian Hooker, CDC whistle blower
Here is the transcript of an experts discussion about the coronavirus vaccine (developed by Moderna, Bill Gates’ favoured company). Some quotes: “This is an experimental technology that has never been done before in history. What is does, it injects a snippet of the virus that carries a genetic code in its RNA that is designed to alter the DNA, the code in every cell in your body to get your body to naturally start producing those antigens.” “It is genetic engineering. It has been condemned by the Geneva Statement because those genetic changes will survive in your sperm and they will live in your children or in your ovaries.” “Here’s what happened. After the SARS epidemic in 2002…SARS was a kind of coronavirus. they developed about thirty different vaccines, and they chose the four most promising models. They tested them on ferrets which are the animal that is most analogous to human reaction to upper respiratory infection. They’re very similar to humans. They’re very predictive of what’s going to happen in human beings.” “When those ferrets were later exposed to the wild virus, they all had body wide inflammation in all their organs, and they died.”
The goal of the transhumanist movement, or “Human 2.0”, is to transcend biology into technology, to meld human biology with technology and artificial intelligence
Right now, today, we may be standing at the literal crossroads of transhumanism, thanks to the fast approaching release of one or more mRNA COVID-19 vaccines
COVID-19 mRNA vaccines are designed to instruct your cells to make the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein. It does this through a process called transfection, which is also used to create genetically engineered organisms
Transfection can have either temporary or permanent effects on the genome, and it is unclear how the COVID-19 vaccines may affect the human genome long-term
In 2019, researchers discovered the 2009 pandemic swine flu vaccine Pandemrix caused narcolepsy by affecting a non-coding RNA gene that regulates the production of glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor, a protein that plays an important role in neuronal survival. If a conventional vaccine can have genetic effects, the risk of mRNA vaccines having genetic effects is bound to be even greater.
Thank you for having read so far. Let us remember: there is ALWAYS hope. If you are worried about infertility (spike S protein and placenta discussion) after being vaccinated: here is proof that unexpected things can happen: The Pfizer mRNA vaccine resulted in TWO pregnancies!
This is probably not an immaculate conception – but more likely a result of a failure of the anti baby pill. Screen shot mRNA Pfizer– BioNTechanalysis print cumulative total by 31 January 2021
Keep your humour… Below is a photo of a fresh new approach to the vaccine discussion:
Will machines and robots replace humanity in the future?
Any covid vaccine (or “gene therapy”) has a risk. How high that is, we don’t know; it can take many months and years until side effects will show. Are we walking into a genetic mine field, reprogramming human body cells? Will it alter our genetic figerprint? Will our very own unique DNA change? Might that alter our personality? Could it be that our subtle “vibration” changes? Is there a possibility of a disconnection between body and soul? Will it affect fertility – and the health of the next generation? We will see. Dr. Shery Tenpenny estimates that many will die half a year after the shot. The real tragedy is not that some old and frail people or those who have ruined their health and their immune system will die prematurely; they had their lives. The real danger for the survival of the human race arises, if young people and children, the next generation, our hope and future might get injected. On a sinking ship it is always:”women and children first!” No fertile man, woman or child should get “the vaccine”.
What’s the choice, if not “the vaccine”? Answer: We Need To Focus On The Immune System, which kept the human race alive, healthy and strong for millenia. What about covid? The danger of dying with covid-19 symptoms has ben highly exaggerated. Death tolls in 2020 were in the range of previous years; the death labels and statistics were manipulated spread via the main stream media, as shown in Did We Get It All Wrong Fighting The Virus? Chances of getting covid-19 symptoms and dying from them are actually very low. “I can’t believe this.” Here are some steps helping you to challenge your belief: 1) Make an experiment and stop watching ANY TV or radio programme for a week – and do NOT read ANY “news”paper. Connect with nature, animals and real people instead. 2) Study health and healthy living. Find sources not directly or indirectly influenced by the pharmaceutical industry. 3) Read about psychological ways of manipulation
The biggest challenge in 2021 is to be and stay human. Bless you!
UK Yellow Card reports published Thu 8 April Data by 28-Mar TOTAL reports / reactions / fatalities AstraZeneca: 116 162 / 440871 / 472 [=> 51 deaths in the last week & 3.7 mio vaccinated] Pfizer: 43491 / 124371 / 302 [=> 19 deaths in one week & 0.1 mio were vaccinated + 3.7 million second doses, mostly the Pfizer] unspecified: 418 / 1367 / 12 [ => 3 deaths last week] UK total vaccine fatalities reported: 786 [=> 73 deaths in the last week] “In the week since the previous summary for 21 March 2021 we have received a further 2,608 Yllow Cards for the Pfizer/BioNTech vaccine, 16,345 for the Oxford University/AstraZeneca vaccine and 39 where the brand was not specified. A higher number of doses of the Oxford University/AstraZeneca vaccine were administered in the last week than the Pfizer/BioNTech vaccine.”
These weekly data updates of the UK government + HealthTruth.info analysis are archived below. On request HealthTruth.info can email you the pdf files of Yellow Card analysis prints of a requested data lock date for data mining.
“In the week since the previous summary for 21 March 2021 we have received a further 2,608 Yllow Cards for the Pfizer/BioNTech vaccine, 16,345 for the Oxford University/AstraZeneca vaccine and 39 where the brand was not specified. A higher number of doses of the Oxford University/AstraZeneca vaccine were administered in the last week than the Pfizer/BioNTech vaccine.”
By 11 March, about 300 000 adverse “reactions” and 508 fatalities were listed in the UK Yellow Card reports after the covid vaccines.
UPDATE 7 March 2021
The UK government reports: For both vaccines the overall reporting rate is around 3 to 6 Yellow Cards per 1,000 doses administered.
Pfizer: 237 (+10) dead 100,809 reactions AstraZeneca: 289 (+14) dead 228,337 reactions unspecified: 8 (+2) dead 917 reactions Total 554 (+46) dead by 7 March 2021 Total reactions: 330,063 [by 7 March (1-7 March week)]
The numbers above also show that AstraZeneca side effects are a multitude more frequent than those of the Pfizer vaccine. An estimated 10.9 million first doses of the Pfizer/BioNTech vaccine and 11.7 million doses of the Oxford University/AstraZeneca vaccine, and around one million second doses, mostly the Pfizer/BioNTech vaccine had been administered by 7 March 2021.
Graphic: 1st dose daily administered in the UK by 3 March First dose total: 20,703,615. Second dose total: 895,412 [gov.uk] It looks like the uptake of the 1st shot is slowing down.
UPDATE 28 February 2021
The UK government reports: 33,207 Yellow Cards have been reported for the Pfizer/BioNTech, 54,180 have been reported for the Oxford University/AstraZeneca vaccine, and 251 have been reported where the brand of the vaccine was not specified. For both vaccines the overall reporting rate is around 3 to 6 Yellow Cards per 1,000 doses administered.
TotalPfizer deaths: 227(+15) – AstraZeneca: 275 (+31) (+1.3 mio Pf vaccinated) – (+1.3 mio AZ vaccinated) unspecified brand: 6 (+0) Total reported deaths: 508 (+48)in week 21-28 Feb 2021 Twice as many deaths with AstraZeneca this week.
The above deaths are just the tip of the iceberg: less than 1% of adverse reactions are reported. At least 20,275,451 people have received their first vaccination in the UK by week ending 28 February 2021, with 815,816 second doses administered. An analysis of the most common vaccine side effects, reveals:
The report rate in the UK population is less than 1%:
The comparison of side effects recorded in the vaccine trials with those reported in the UK YellowCard Scheme by 28 February 2021 reveal: 1) AstraZeneca shows most side effects – many more than the Pfizer vaccine 2) Far less than 1% of post vaccine side effects are reported in the Yellow Card scheme
The numbers above also show that AstraZeneca side effects are a multitude more frequent than those of the Pfizer vaccine.
An estimated 10.7 million first doses of the Pfizer/BioNTech vaccine and 9.7 million doses of the Oxford University/AstraZeneca vaccine, had been administered, and around 0.8 million second doses, mostly the Pfizer/BioNTech vaccine, had been administered. Pfizer/BioNTech vaccine reports include a total of 94,809reactions AstraZeneca vaccine reports include a total of 201,622reactions
“In the week since the previous summary for 21 February 2021 the MHRA have received a further 3,482 Yellow Cards for the Pfizer/BioNTech vaccine and 11,263 for the Oxford University/AstraZeneca vaccine” = 3x more for AstraZeneca. 30-40% of healthy trial volunteers reported “myalgia” – that should be 3-4 million of the UK population. More than twice as many AstraZeneca adverse total reactions All above data are from the UK government analysis prints for Oxford/AstraZeneca & mRNA Pfizer–BioNTech and MHRA
Update UK data 21 February
4 March: the UK government published the latest cumulative total numbers of reactions and fatalitiesHERE.
The REAL numbers are probably more than 20x higher as explained above. The media report deaths after the covid-19 jab usually as “coincidental” – or they attribute deaths to a “covid outbreak” (positive PCR test result). The above week (14-21 February) data is the difference between totals between the 14 Feb (see below) and 21 Feb cumulative totals.
As of 21 February, an estimated 9.4 million first doses of the Pfizer/BioNTech vaccine and 8.4 million doses of the Oxford University/AstraZeneca vaccine, had been administered, and around 0.6 million second doses, mostly the Pfizer/BioNTech vaccine, had been administered [source: UK gov]
Data AnalysisDeaths in the week 14-21 February 2021: Pfizer: 1.1mio / 15 deaths = 1 death / 73,333vaccinated AstraZ: 1.5mio/39 deaths = 1 death / 38,461.5vaccinated [deaths related to the vaccines given in the same week] You are nearly twice as likely to die after the AstraZeneca vaccine than after the shot from Pfizer.
Cumulative total = 406 UK deaths by 14 Feb [UK data Drug Analysis Yellow Card]
17,582,121 people have received their first vaccination in UK by week ending 14 February 2021, with 615,148 second doses administered [UK Public Health].
“As of 14 February, an estimated total of 15.2 Mio doses (8.3 million first doses of the Pfizer/BioNTech vaccine and 6.9 million doses of the Oxford University/AstraZeneca vaccine), had been administered, and around 0.6 million second doses, mostly the Pfizer/BioNTech vaccine, had been administered” Coronavirus vaccine – weekly summary of Yellow Card reporting
Analysis 2 weeks 1-14 February 2021 Pfizer: 1.7mio/54 deaths = 1 death / 31,481 vaccinated AstraZ: 3.9mio/115 deaths = 1 death/33,913 vaccinated [deaths related to the vaccines given in the same 2 weeks]
UK Data 1st February Week 2021
UPDATE in the first February week: alone, there were 30 deaths + 10 700 “reactions” recorded after the Pfizer vaccine + 60 deaths and 31 234 “reactions” after the AstraZeneca shot. That is 90 deaths in ONE week (1-7 Feb 2021). Total UK deaths: 173 + 150 = 323 Pfizer AstraZeneca combined Totsl UK ‘reactions’: 70 314+73 883=144 197 for both vaccines. Consider: less than 10% of vaccine related incidents are reported.
Update from the 1-7 February 2021 UK Drug Analysis Print with increased totals showing Pfizer: 173 deaths (+30) and 70 314 “Reactions” (+10 700 in one week) AstraZeneca: 150 deaths (+ 60) and 73 883 “Reactions” (+31 234 in one week) Please note: the Yellow card deaths and reactions only show totals since the count began. By subtracting the totals from 31 January, we get the numbers for one week.
UK Data 31 January 2021
As of 31 January, an estimated 6.6 million first doses of the Pfizer/BioNTechmRNA vaccine and 3 million doses of the Oxford University/AstraZenecaviral vector vaccine had been administered in the UK, and around 0.5 million second doses, mostly the Pfizer/BioNTech vaccine. From the UK government weekly summary of Yellow Card reporting, 9 Dec 2020 to 31 January 2021: As of 31 January 2021, for the UK: • “20,319 Yellow Cards have been reported for the Pfizer / BioNTech • 11,748 have been reported for the Oxford University / AstraZeneca vaccine • 72 have been reported where the brand of the vaccine was not specified“
Events with fatal outcome: “The MHRA has received 143 UK reports of suspected ADRs to the Pfizer/BioNTech vaccinein which the patient died shortly after vaccination, 90 reports for the Oxford University/AstraZeneca vaccine.” Anaphylaxis: “The MHRA has received 130 UK spontaneous adverse reactions associated with anaphylaxis or anaphylactoid reactions with the Pfizer/BioNTech vaccination… and 30 reports of anaphylaxis have been received for the COVID-19 Oxford University/AstraZeneca vaccine.” Bell’s Palsy: “99 reports of facial paralysis or paresis with Pfizer/BioNTech vaccine… and 15 reports of facial paralysis have been received for the COVID-19 Oxford University/AstraZeneca vaccine.”
That is 40x more deaths than expected after a flu vaccine! WHO statement from 2013: “for every 10 million individuals vaccinated [against Influenza A (H1N1)] in the UK, 21.5 cases of Guillain-Barré syndrome and 5.75 sudden deaths were expected to occur as unrelated coincidental events within 6 weeks of vaccination. 34” [VACCINE SAFETY BASICS, p 77]
The following calculation is for 31 January 2021: Analysis Pfizer: 6.6 million first vaccines administered 6,600 000 / 143 deaths = one death per 46,153 people 59 614 reactions / 143 deaths = one death each 416.88 reactions 143 deaths / 52 days = one vaccine death every 2.75 days Analysis AstraZeneca: 3 million first vaccines administered 3,000 000 / 90 deaths = one death per 33,333 people 42 649 reactions / 90 deaths = one death each 473.88 reactions 90 deaths / 27 days = one vaccine death every 3.33 days
In the last decades, less than 10% of vaccine reactions and fatalities have been reported with the Yellow Card scheme – nearly always they are considered “coincidental”, but not causal [BMJ]. A study found, that in the US “Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System” VAERS “fewer than 1% of vaccine adverse events are reported“ So the real vaccine adverse effects and deaths will be likely to be more than 20 times higher. Vaccine authorities don’t really want to know about adverse effects. QUESTION: are UK vaccine deaths after day 8 included?
Below on this page you find the following chapters about legal battles against covid politics (update date) Legal NEWS: Belgium must lift ‘all Covid-19 measures’ within 30 days (4 April)
31 March: “The Belgian State has been ordered to lift “all coronavirus measures” within 30 days, as the legal basis for them is insufficient, a Brussels court ruled on Wednesday. The League for Human Rights had filed the lawsuit several weeks ago and challenged Belgium’s system of implementing the measures using Ministerial Decrees, which means it is done without any input from parliament. The judge gave the Belgian State 30 days to provide a sound legal basis, or face a penalty of €5,000 per day that this period is exceeded, with a maximum limit of €200,000, reports Le Soir. The current coronavirus measures are based on the Civil Safety Act of 2007, which enable the State to react quickly in “exceptional circumstances,” but the judge has now ruled that these laws cannot serve as a basis for the Ministerial Decrees.” [read more]

“This government has been negligent in the use of Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) tests in response to Covid-19. Using mass testing to drive lockdowns was an error of huge magnitude. Quarantining healthy people is unprecedented. Shutting down the economy is unprecedented. PCR tests were NEVER FIT FOR PURPOSE.“ [text above from PCRclaims.co.uk]
Early next week, the court will receive a 1,200 page bundle of evidence, which includes expert witness statements from two professors, three doctors, a dental surgeon, a probate solicitor, a mathematician, a retired nuclear submarine data analyst, an independent data analyst and a former CID fraud detective, who is acting as a trustee of the PUB in bringing this most serious of prosecutions to the criminal court.
Declaration Sought
In addition to the charges of fraud by false representation and non-disclosure, in material breaches of sections 2 and 3 of the Fraud Act 2006, we are informally applying for a declaration, under the inherent powers of the court, which states that autopsies are to be carried out for all alleged COVID deaths, which will be held as evidence in the forthcoming trial, on the ground that we have expert witness testimony of the falsification of death certificates, as per UK Government policy.
We are also asking for a moratorium on the UK flu and COVID ‘vaccinations’ programmesto be declared for period of at least 90 days, in order to definitively establish whether it is COVID-19 or ‘vaccines’ that are killing people at a minimum mortality rate of 377 per 100,000 healthy adults, as per the leaked WHO approved ‘vaccine’ safety study which we are adducing into evidence.
Boatload of Prima Facie Evidence
They told us they wanted more prima facie evidence when we made the last application in late 2020, seeking the arrest of Matt Hancock for fraud by non-disclosure over the declassification of COVID-19 by the ACDP.
Well, now they have a veritable boatload of the stuff heading their way, so prepare yourselves for the inevitable shitstorm on the near horizon, after the defendants’ QC’s tell them that their only defence is to plead gross negligence. However, the evidence is so emphatic that they knew exactly what they were doing that the jury will almost certainly convict them as charged.
Nevertheless, don’t expect the defendants to be wheeled off in handcuffs to Belmarsh by tomorrow morning. Whilst it is just about conceivable that the court’s legal department could make an initial assessment of the case by the end of next week, even if it happens that swiftly, the matter will then be passed to the Chief Magistrate of the UK’s legal department, which will probably take at least another week to make their assessment.
Potential Turnaround
In the event all of that is turned around within the next two weeks, the case would then be passed to a senior district judge, who must then decide whether to grant the applications for the summonses and the declaration, whether on paper or at a hearing.
If the summons application is granted, a pleading hearing would then be listed to take place within the next couple of weeks. This would take us to 28 days from now and probably represents the earliest time that the defendants will be summonsed to plead in the Magistrates Court. The informal application for the declaration would also be dealt with at that hearing.
Given the seriousness of the charges and the urgency of the situation, with clear evidence of fraud with murderous consequences already adduced into evidence, we will then ask the court to list a trial by jury at the very earliest opportunity, which will almost certainly take place at the Old Bailey.
If and when all of that transpires rests on the judgment of a single district judge, who will necessarily have experience dealing with such serious charges. However, it is the considered opinion of the former CID fraud detective and the team behind the scenes who have supported me every step of the way that the Statement of Case is “monumental”, “truly historical” and:
“Regardless of the judiciary’s response to it, once the information is in the public realm/consciousness, along with the cited evidence, it will be incendiary. The accused will squeal like the little swines they are.” [end of update quotes from thebernician.net]
COVID-1984 PCP UPDATE 20 Nov [from Michael O’Bernicia’s Facebook page] After having no red flags raised by the legal advisers at Westminster Magistrates Court this week, we understand that the warrant application is now before the nominated judge and that a decision is imminent. I realise that things are not happening as quickly as we would all like but please understand that it took six weeks to get to this stage in my family’s PCP against BOS and its receivers in 2013, so in reality the case has progressed at a relatively rapid pace. We must also take into consideration the fact that, before he rules on the matter, the judge will have to ascertain whether the Director of Public Prosecutions is electing to take over the case, on the ground that it is of such importance that it cannot run as a private prosecution. Either way, in the absence of a miscarriage of justice, the warrant will be issued and as soon as there are any developments, you will read about them on this page.
UPDATE Friday 13th Nov 6pm [from Michael O’Bernicia’s Facebook page] COVID-1984 NEWSFLASH The prosecution in People’s Union of Britain v Matt Hancock has just sent the executed form, applying for his arrest warrant, to the court of issue. We have already got the green light from the court’s legal advisers and now we have the chief magistrates’ permission to proceed. They also sent us the form to fill out for the arrest warrant, which has now been acknowledged by the same as having been received. However, the form won’t be processed till Monday [16 Nov.], when it will be sent up to the crown court to be administered and then served upon the defendant, without delay, by the arresting officers, who will soon be appointed by the court. Therefore, the case will now proceed as directed, unless the Director of Public Prosecutions [DPP] intervenes, which is unlikely because nobody will want to take the poisoned chalice. However, even if they do, we can object on the ground that the DPP is working for the government, so they are obviously conflicted. If they refuse to back down, we will insist that the case proceeds with our legal team. In other words, my family, friends and growing army of peace-keepers and freedom fighters, we are all about to witness the most significant events that have transpired on these shores, since Charles I lost his head. Words simply cannot adequately express the truly humbling experience of the love, support and commitment I’ve received, from people who all tell me that my words have moved and inspired their hearts into resisting this tyranny, for the sake of our children and grandchildren. Thank you, from the bottom of my heart, for rising to the call. Very soon, our number will be millions. This truly is our moment to seize the opportunity to build an advanced civilisation, on the rubble of the corrupted one, which is crumbling around us by COVID-1984 design […] In that new civilisation, we will protect the unalienable birthrights of the individual from the tyranny of the collective, to become truly self-governed under the Common Law, as expressed in Magna Carta 2020, an idea whose time has come. From now until you see the arrest live-streamed on the mainstream and alternative media worldwide, let’s make #ArrestMattHancock go viral on every platform, to the point where the People are chanting it in the streets nationwide.
COVID-1984 PCP UPDATE | At 11:11 pm on the 11th day of the 11th month, charges of criminal fraud by non-disclosure were laid against the secretary of state for mandatory vaxxtermination. He has been charged with knowingly failing to disclose to MPs that the fake government lurgy was reclassified as not being a Highly Contagious Infectious Disease, before they voted on the treacherous Coronavirus Act 2020. Had he done so, there can be no doubt in the mind of any reasonable individual there would have been no possible justification for its enactment. [from Michael O’Bernicia’s Facebook page]
“the case is very simple to understand and prosecute – each MP intentionally relied upon [and then caused the People to rely upon], a series of false statements, which caused the deaths of untold thousands, destroyed the economy and enabled unaccountable and tyrannical government, in breach of section 2 of the Fraud Act 2006, the Treason Felony Act 1348 and articles 1 and 2 of the Bill of Rights 1689.” “The barrister… is confident that the allegations are founded upon enough evidence to convict and that her partners will be in agreement”
On 15 October we received confirmation that the partners of the firm of barristers we are talking to about the case against Parliament are all in agreement – the case is one that can be won… we are now moving forward into the preparation of the court papers, including an affidavit containing all of the allegations of fraud, treason and genocide. It will be the first time allegations of treason have been made since the aftermath of WWII, whilst genocide is a crime under international law and the such allegations would almost certainly be dealt with in the Hague. … we are aiming to lay the charges in a criminal court as soon as they have been properly drafted. We will also be seeking an order placing the entire cabinet and their advisers under house arrest, to prevent the rogue government from attempting to murder more people [as well as its opponents, under the new homicide enabling act] with purported statutory impunity. Here’s a conversation with Mark Devlin youtu.be/w9pm3Z6nFnk. Find all Mark Devlin’s work here: https://djmarkdevlin.com/ #PrivateCriminalProsecutions#PandemicFraud
The final drafting will be done over the weekend and Monday 8 November has been set aside by our legal team for the information to be laid in a criminal court, with summonses to follow without delay. In addition, the People will also seek an order placing the accused under indefinite house arrest, to prevent any further government crimes being committed.
3) Crimes Against Humanity
In the video below “Crimes against humanity” from 3 Oct., the German top lawyer Dr. Reiner Fuellmich, who has been practicing law primarily as a trial lawyer against fraudulent corporations such as Deutsche Bank, VW and more corporations in the last 26 years, speaks as one of four members of the German Corona Investigative Committee: “those responsible for it will be criminally prosecuted“

“the allegedly new and highly dangerous coronavirus has not caused any excess mortality anywhere in the world” This “Corona Crisis” must be renamed as “corona scandal” and those responsible for it will be criminally prosecuted and sued for civil damages by an international committee of lawyers according to section 7 of the International Criminal Code.
Questions: “Is there a Corona pandemic or is there only a PCR test pandemic?” “Do the so-called anti Corona measures, such as the lockdown, mandatory face masks, social distancing and quarantine regulations serve to protect the world’s population from Corona, or do these measures serve only to make people panic so that they believe without asking any questions, that their lives are in danger, so that in the end the pharmaceutical and tech industries can generate huge profits from the sale of PCR tests, antigen and antibody tests and vaccines, as well as the harvesting of our genetic fingerprints?”
“This Corona Investigative Committee was founded on July 10th by four lawyers in order to determine, through hearing expert testimony of international scientists and other experts. 1) how dangerous is the virus, really? 2) what is the significance of a post positive PCR test? 3) what collateral damage has been caused by the Corona measures, both with respect to the world’s population’s health and with respect to the world’s economy?”

first lawsuit filed against so-called fact checkers on social media:
German Lawsuit Against “FactCheckers” Would Force Them To Prove Legitimacy of C0VlD Tests – youtu.be/iKJqDZdiMto
UPDATE 1st December: Dr. Reiner Fuellmich… founding member of the German Corona Extra-Parliamentary Inquiry Committee [from Mercola.com] “The committee is now filing the first of many lawsuits to come, this one against so-called fact checkers on social media. They opted to file a defamation lawsuit on behalf of Dr. Wolfgang Wodarg, a former member of the German Congress and the Council of Europe who has been an outspoken critic of PCR testing, as it cannot be used to diagnose infection.” “Social media companies have labeled Wodarg’s statements as “false,” and by filing a defamation suit, the burden of proof now falls on the fact checkers to prove that they are correct. In other words, to win, the fact checkers must prove that PCR tests diagnose active infection. The scientific evidence proves they don’t, so this case could turn out to be pivotal in the fight against the big tech censorship that keeps the fearmongering alive.”
4) Simon Dolan’s UK legal initiative
Join the Legal Challenge to the UK Govt Lockdown – by Simon Dolan: “We seek an injunction which would immediately halt the Government’s latest lockdown laws. By forcing people to stay at home, and forcing businesses to close, they are, we believe, in contravention of basic Human Rights offered under English Law, that of the right to enjoy your property peacefully. The lockdown… will lead to far more deaths from suicide, undiagnosed conditions, untreated conditions – indeed far more than would have been potentially saved by the lockdown.
UPDATE 11 December:This week the Supreme Court has decided to refuse to hear our appeal relating to a Judicial Review into lockdown. The Supreme Court decision to refuse to hear an appeal relating to a Judicial Review into lockdown, means that unelected Judges have set a precedent which now makes it impossible to challenge the Government’s use of the Public Health Act 1984 to trample over Civil Liberties and to emasculate Parliament in the process.
By not allowing the Appeal to go ahead, this puts a protective shield around Ministers and gives them a free run to lock up people in their homes using the Act, without having to worry any more that their actions in using the Act like this are illegal. This is a chilling development which should not be underestimated.
The Government’s ruthless use of the 1984 Act is an effective destruction of democratic process on behalf of the public around the lockdowns we have suffered and any that may happen again in the future. Although lately there has been some pushback from MPs, the decision of the Supreme Court and Court of Appeal gives the Government more power than it should rightfully have.
It threatens even to rip up the rights protected by the Magna Carta – the basic premise of you being free unless it is specifically unlawful has now effectively been changed, meaning that you now have to have the Govt’s permission to do literally anything. This goes against 800+ years of legal principle.
“By criticising us for having a ‘Rolling Judicial Review’ case, it means that when a Government in future uses these emergency powers, provided that they change the regulations every time they are challenged, they can keep avoiding the very mechanism – Judicial Review – that is there to provide a vital check and balance under the UK’s unwritten constitution. It is ironic that in July of this year, the Government launched a wide ranging review into the scope of judicial review chaired by Lord Faulks QC which has yet to publish its recommendations.
Equally disturbing is how the lockdown Judicial Review cases have found a lack of willingness from the Courts to challenge Government; Judges have said all along “It isn’t the place of the Court to get involved in politics”. They didn’t make that claim when the Brexit case was going.
From the first directions order made in the Judicial Review claim, it was clear that our unelected judges were entirely dismissive of the notion that we should be able to protect rights in the midst of a Pandemic, or that the Government’s actions could in any way be disproportionate or illegal in terms of the real situation being faced.
No one is disputing the impact on public health as a result of the novel Coronavirus, but far more so the Government’s handling of it, however, I do not feel the judges engaged at all with the key points or the 1,200 pages of evidence that was submitted as part of the case. The judgments and judicial comments made throughout are strongly suggestive of an unwillingness to look at the evidence and to depart from a high level “media” view of the pandemic. This suggests the Courts have not taken the opportunity to scrutinise key statistics and facts around the case, effectively waving away vital points around misleading data being used to justify lockdowns and impose further restrictions.
While scrutinising this type of data was seen as almost being unholy in March, April and May of 2020, this case, the Dodgy Dossier and the recently and very quietly amended ONS stats used to impose Lockdown 2 on the nation, has shown that, as a seemingly democratic society, it is vital that we do scrutinise what we are being told and that we continue to do so. The Government has used data to terrify the nation into compliance over a virus from which, in the words of the Government’s own medical officers, the vast majority people recover from and many do not even show symptoms of having.
I also feel strongly that our case has been treated with a far different approach to the Brexit case brought by Gina Miller, who twice defeated the Government in the Supreme Court, once over the right of MPs in triggering Article 50 and then again over the Prorogation of Parliament – arguably far less significant to the nation than the greatest economic contraction in peacetime history and the unprecedented restriction of rights, including access to healthcare – that we have seen as a result of Government measures.
The Supreme Court route is one we took as we fully believed in the case. It returned its decision in rapid time in an email of just a few lines long. This is a kick in the face for the thousands of people who have supported this case.
It must be accepted that the path to the Supreme Court is notoriously difficult. Of the many applications for permission to the Supreme Court each year, very few are granted. From July to September of this year, there were 21 applications. Five applications granted but three of them were for cases arising from 1971 shootings in N Ireland. Among them, and one of the most recent cases to be given permission to appeal, were the Government’s own appeal against the appeal court’s decision to let ISIS bride Shamina Begum back into the country pending her appeal. The massive health, civil liberties, parliamentary and economic implications of the use of the 1984 Act, was not, however, deemed worthy of consideration by the Court.
While the Supreme Court decision is a bitter blow, we have scored many victories and helped give a platform to tens of thousands of people who felt their voices were unheard. We forced SAGE to produce its minutes, got the Government to concede it had not lawfully shut schools, and lit the fire on scrutinizing data and information.
What started for me as a personal crusade against this Government and their shocking ineptitude quickly turned into a campaign for everyone whose lives have been wrecked by lockdown polices which were implemented in haste and without proper consideration.
We started Keep Britain Free to protect the basic freedoms of everyone living in the UK and it has become one of the fastest growing pressure groups in the UK, with thousands of you joining together to fight creeping totalitarianism. Our legal challenge has become one of the biggest crowdfunded legal cases in British history. We have raised over £416,000 from 14,000 pledges – people from all different walks of life from every corner of the UK. This shows the strength of feeling out there for this ongoing battle.
Whilst the Supreme Court decision is far from the outcome we were fighting for, our campaign has been vital in giving individuals up and down the country hope during an unprecedented time and in challenging a Government that was simply ruling by decree without any scrutiny. We also believe our findings and evidence, while not considered properly by the judges, will be of use in the inevitable public inquires which will follow and will help history judge the PM, Matt Hancock and their advisers in the light that they deserve. Our fight continues and as ever, I will keep you posted on developments.
Update on “Join the Legal Challenge to the UK Govt Lockdown” Simon Dolan, via CrowdJustice23 Nov: The legal team has made amends to the 2nd Judicial Review meaning that it’s arguments are in relation not only to the first national lockdown but also include the SECOND lockdown currently taking place in England. The Re-Amended Statement of Facts and Grounds have been filed with the Court and the Government has been served with them. Our case will argue that the “evidence” presented by Whitty and Vallance at the press conference on 31 October at which the new lockdown was announced included some old, suspect data and was misleading. We will argue that in fact there was no serious escalation in the epidemic as evidenced by: – Use of old data and overinflated warnings as to likely deaths – a subject already aired in the media – The continuing relatively flat excess death figures compared to the five year average for the same period – The unreliability of PCR tests as a diagnostic tool given their propensity to produce large numbers of “false” positives by picking up dead virus particles in people who have long since recovered from infection – Lack of transparency about NHS capacity and bed occupancy and in relation to typical conditions at this time of year in previous years with the onset of the usual autumn/ winter upsurge in respiratory infections
That being the case, imposing a lockdown with all the disastrous consequences it has for health, economy etc was disproportionate and irrational. It is only right that the consequences of both lockdowns imposed on the nation are properly considered by the Court. The most recent measures were pitched to England on the promise that come December 2nd, restrictions would be lifted and people up and down the nation could enjoy Christmas festivities. Reports suggest that the UK could be plunged into yet more restrictions under the guise of a strengthened tiered approach with SAGE also suggesting further lockdowns will be needed to ‘recover’ from eased restrictions. What has become evident from the first and second lockdown is that this cycle is not sustainable. Whatever economic measures and packages the Government dangles in front of us, millions are likely to lose their jobs and businesses will be forced to close down. This flip-flop approach to lockdown, paired with the complete farce that is Test and Trace, is bringing chaos to every echelon of society. Businesses, already up against the wall, are facing another period of unsettling uncertainty. The unemployment rate continues to surge. School attendance is in chaos and with exams already cancelled for thousands, another generation is at risk of being ruined. Lockdowns cost lives and cannot be allowed to continue.
Update on “Join the Legal Challenge to the UK Govt Lockdown” by Simon Dolan from 3 November: dear supporter, I wanted to update you on our appeal, which was heard at one of the highest courts in the land last Thursday and Friday. The hearing took place in the very grand Court 4 at the Royal Courts of Justice which is the Lord Chief Justice’s Court. The three appeal judges included the Lord Chief Justice himself, Lord Burnett of Maldon and two other appeal judges Lady Justice King and Lord Justice Singh. It was a ‘hybrid hearing’ which meant that the hearing physically took place in a courtroom but it was also being live streamed for people to watch. I was pleased to see some supporters in court – thanks for coming down.
Once again it was Philip Havers QC putting forward our side of the argument, supported by junior barrister Francis Hoar. Sir James Eadie QC was representing the government (with three other barristers at his side, handing him notes and working on their case.
The whole of the first day and the morning of the second were taken up with Philip Havers presenting our case. His main argument was that the lockdown legislation was ‘ultra vires’ or outside the scope of the 1984 Public Health Act which was used to bring them in. In other words the lockdown was illegal.
He also argued that our case was not ‘academic’. When our judicial review into the lockdown was refused in July one of the reasons given was that the case was no longer valid because the lockdown regulations had been revised numerous times (and are being reimposed as we speak). However, we say that the legal challenge is absolutely vital and necessary to stop the government doing the same thing again.
Philip also explained why we believe the regulations contravened people’s human rights which are enshrined in the European Convention of Human Rights and that they were a ‘disproportionate breach’ of those rights. He told the court the lockdown regulations ‘imposed far-reaching restrictions on the lives and businesses of the entire population of England’.
Philip said: “If the court subjects these regulations to judicial scrutiny and if the government is considering a second lockdown, the government, together with parliament and the public, will have available to them what this court has to say about the proportionality of the original lockdown.”
Philip argued that the original lockdown regulations were subjected to ‘no judicial scrutiny at all.’ He said: “Over five weeks elapsed between the making of the original regulations on March 26 and being approved by affirmative resolution by the House of Commons… seven weeks with both houses. These regulations were made without any parliamentary scrutiny at all and only debated weeks later.” He said the 1984 Public Health Act did not allow for ‘house arrest on the whole population.’
My QC then directed his aim at the five tests the government relied on to consider an easing of the lockdown, arguing that these had to be satisfied regardless of the damage or harm being caused to other illnesses and jobs and so on. He told the hearing the five tests did not take into account ‘domestic violence, cancer, disease – the consequences for all those who suffer from other illnesses’. He said: “Less restrictive measures could have been adopted without causing disproportionate harm.”
The debate moved on to deaths from Covid-19. Mr Havers said: “The chance of children, mercifully, or adults under 20 dying from Covid-19 who didn’t have a pre-existing condition was and still is vanishingly small and the chance of an adult under the age of 60 dying was and still is also extremely small….To continue to keep the whole population under house arrest…to continue to ban all gatherings and so on was irrational when a more targeted approach could have been achieved.”
Lord Justice Singh asked if protecting the NHS was a good enough reason to impose the restrictions. Philip responded: “There were well over 3000 spare capacity beds… there was no realistic prospect of the NHS being overwhelmed.”
The justices then questioned whether our legal challenge was too general. They also probed into whether the legislation’s ‘reasonable excuse’ caveat meant it did not violate human rights. In other words, they were suggesting there were get-outs for people who could breach the regulations and then cite human rights law to justify why they had gone to see their grandma ? This felt like a controversial point to me. Is it realistic that the average person would think to quote human rights law to a policeman?
On the second day, Mr Havers argued the closure of schools was disproportionate. He said: “All schoolchildren with no pre-existing conditions could readily have gone back to school by July 2 and we say should arguably have gone back to school by then.”
Lord Chief Justice asked: “So you are saying because the data was showing the risks were low therefore the government should have persuaded reluctant people to restore the status quo to do so?” Philip replied: “Given the enormous harm being done to the education of every schoolchild in the country my answer is ‘yes’.”
Sir James Eadie took to his feet on the second day to put the government’s case. He said: “The structure and nature of restrictions has changed pretty fundamentally over time, reflecting the scientific understanding. The various judgements that have to be made over time and the balance governments have to strike… to keep the economy maximally open as humanly possible against the resurgence of the violence and the risk it creates.” Sir James also denied claims the coronavirus restrictions were improperly implemented.
Philip said the 1984 Public Health Act used to order the lockdown only applied to individuals and should not have been used ‘to keep everyone ‘under house arrest.’ He suggested the Government should have used the 2004 Civil Contingencies Act instead.
The Lord Chief Justice, Lord Justice Singh and Lady Justice King are now considering their judgement which could be issued any day now. Depending on their verdict, we will have to consider our next step. It may be that we have to challenge their ruling in the Supreme Court. One thing remains certain – we will not be giving up. What’s also clear, is that this case is momentous, having brought into question significant elements of our legal system as well as the powers of our ministers. In the meantime, we must continue to gather as much support as we can. Please continue to spread our message, by sharing our updates, our cause and the link to this Crowdjustice fund. Together, we will Keep Britain Free. Simon.
UPDATE 20 Oct: Sir Lindsay Hoyle has applied to intervene in a legal fight brought by Simon Dolan and Cripps Barn Group against the Government’s lockdown restrictions. Hoyle, the Speaker of the House of Commons says he will intervene in the case because it raises issues of ‘constitutional importance’. By 21 Oct £372,920 (of £425,000) are pledged.

11 November: “An appeals court in Portugal has ruled that the PCR process is not a reliable test for Sars-Cov-2, and therefore any enforced quarantine based on those test results is unlawful. Further, the ruling suggested that any forced quarantine applied to healthy people could be a violation of their fundamental right to liberty.“ “Most importantly, the judges ruled that a single positive PCR test cannot be used as an effective diagnosis of infection.” “The ruling goes on to conclude that, based on the science they read, any PCR test using over 25 cycles is totally unreliable.”
The UK seems to use 40 amplifications [see the PCR Test chapter]
“Three cross-party MPs and the Good Law Project, a non-profit-making organisation, have launched legal action against the Government over its failure to disclose details of its spending on contracts related to the pandemic.” “Green MP Caroline Lucas, Labour’s Debbie Abrahams and Liberal Democrat MP Layla Moran have filed a judicial review against the Government for breaching the law and its own guidance and argue that there are mounting concerns over the Government’s coronavirus procurement processes.” “at least £11 billion worth of contracts have been awarded by the department since April, related predominantly to coronavirus, new analysis by Tussell shows that over £3 billion worth of these contracts have not been made public.” Jolyon Maugham QC, director of Good Law Project said: “Huge sums of public money have been awarded to companies with no discernible expertise. Sometimes the main qualification seems to be a political connection with key Government figures.And I have seen evidence that Government is sometimes paying more to buy the same product from those with political connections.” [London Economic, 11 October]
8) Emergency Grand Jury for Natural Law
URGENT MESSAGE DO NOT IGNORE SHARE VIRAL Greetings Everyone, we have formed an Emergency Grand Jury for Natural Law from Public Health & Justice along with 32 Judges from around the world who are experts & together we have launched an International Tribunal for Emergency Injunctions & we have served Indictments for Crimes Against Humanity To Ban: 1) Forced Vaccinations, 2) Unlawful Lockdowns 3) The Criminal Misuse 4) Fraudulent Tests on Healthy People 5) The Criminal misuse of 5G Technologies 6) Economic Terrorism 7) Forcing people into poverty.
As many of you may already know, rogue highly corrupt usurpers who have now taken over all our public offices, departments & positions of power are misusing COVID 19 as an excuse to strip ‘We The People’ of our God given inalienable Rights & Freedoms.
The are grossly abusing the powers given to them by ‘We The People’
Those in positions of Government & Mainstream Media are Acting as a Corrupt Corporations to facilitate their own special interests & no longer honoring the Will of ‘We The People’
In Law this is an ABUSE OF POWER called a Breach of ULTRA VIRES LAWS meaning ‘They have gone BEYOND THE SCOPE OF POWERS’ That ‘We The People’ have given them.
We have arrived at a extremely dangerous situation whereby they are now acting criminally & are planning to roll out FORCED mass vaccinations upon HEALTHY PEOPLE in the UK and worldwide which they are FULLY AWARE are likely to at worst KILL healthy people, or at best likely to PARALYSE MILLIONS /BILLIONS entirely on the basis FALSE science & data.
The company behind the vaccines called Pfizer were already sued by Nigeria in 2013, for harming countless Nigerian victims with their contaminated Testing Kits & now this very same company, (who should have been shut down years ago) are seeking to do the same thing again by administering unsafe deadly vaccines in the UK & all around the rest of the world. They MUST be immediately STOPPED! But we need unified MASS ACTION TO BE SUCCESSFUL.
In addition, there is evidence that 490.000 children were paralyzed in India by Bill Gates’s vaccines but again, instead of this man being arrested & stopped from causing further harm, on the 10th of November 2020 we are told that Boris Johnson had a meeting with Gates to roll out these same lethal unregistered unlicensed UNLAWFUL Deadly vaccines & force them upon the British public in the coming next 10 days.
AS THIS IS A CRITICAL STATE OF EMERGENCY – WE ARE CALLING FOR UNIFIED WORLDWIDE ACTION THAT REQUIRES EVERYONES INPUT TO HELP US TO IMMEDIATELY STOP THEM BY 1) REPORTING ON OUR INDICTMENT NEWS (make videos on your phones if possible) 2) SHARING OUR INJUNCTION & INDICTMENT CHARGES LINK www.peaceinspace.org 3) Join the hashtag campaign by tweeting

10) Empower Yourself Legally
updated 31 December 2020
Learn the BASICS of Common Law, what to say and do – and what not. The Truth will set you free. Knowledge is power. Once you see through the system, you can laugh about it – a very health boosting way to overcome fear. Here is a 1/2 hour short recommended introduction:

11) Law Of The Land: Magna Carta
In case you are interested, below is some introductory information about the Magna Carta. The following paragraphs are from GreenMedInfo.com The Great Reset: The 1215 Magna Carta was a treaty between the Barons and the King. It was subsequently re-issued into Statute law in 1297 by King Edward I, proclaiming in the introductory text, which remains the law of the land, that:
“these Liberties following, to be kept in our Kingdom of England for ever.”
And in Article 1 that “We have granted also, and given to all the Freemen of our Realm, for Us and our Heirs for ever, these Liberties under-written, to have and to hold to them and their Heirs, of Us and our Heirs for ever.”
Magna Carta (1297) Article 29 (XXIX) “Imprisonment, &c. contrary to Law. Administration of Justice.” states that: “NO Freeman shall be taken or imprisoned, or be disseised of his Freehold, or Liberties, or free Customs, or be outlawed, or exiled, or any other wise destroyed; nor will We not pass upon him, nor deal with him [condemn him,] but by lawful judgment of his Peers, or by the Law of the Land. We will sell to no man, we will not deny or defer to any man either Justice or Right.”
Article 29 of the Magna Carta (1297) remains the law of the land in the United Kingdom and Crown Dependencies and its principles remain the foundation of all common law countries. It was confirmed to be retained in the Republic of Ireland by the Statute Revision Act (2007) and the whole of Ireland also has its own Magna Carta Hiberniae (1216). It arguably remains law in Canada and Australia and remains on the statute book in New Zealand. The United States Constitution is in compliance with Chapter 29 of the Magna Carta.
The English Bill of Rights goes further, making it unconstitutional for the UK, Canada, Australia and New Zealand to be ruled by a foreign power, which places a cloud over the UK’s previous membership of the European Union, it states:
“I doe declare That noe Forreigne Prince Person Prelate, State or Potentate hath or ought to have any Jurisdiction Power Superiority Preeminence or Authoritie Ecclesiasticall or Spirituall within this Realme Soe helpe me God.”
“England appears to be the rock on which the revolutionary waves split and disperse and which starves the coming society even in the womb.” Karl Marx, (Cologne, December 31, 1848)
the Liberty of Subjects Act (1354) and Observance of Due Process Act (1368) signed into law by King Edward III, both of which remain law in the UK today. They further reinforce protection of general liberties and due process. In particular, and relevant to Article 29 of the UN Declaration and all UN treaties that pretend to be able to suspend liberty and due process, the 1368 Observance of Due Process Act made Constitutional the ancient Saxon custom, that:
“if any Thing from henceforth be done to the contrary (of due process of law), it shall be void in the Law, and holden for Error”.
Having read all the chapters in “We’ve got it all wrong” can be overwhelming and disheartening; but it is important to know the facts.
Don’t forget to LOOK AFTER YOURSELF and don’t become part of the problem. Instead of fighting the darkness (and feeding it with your energy): focus on LIGHT and love. The power of focussing on something POSITIVE: heart, love, joy, health, community, friends, hugs is amazing and will ripple out and shine away darkness and fear.

Here are some motivating, uplifting and encouraging words for you:
From StopWorldControl.com/freedom-army: Humanity is rising up as a huge army of truth and love “Something truly remarkable is going on today… Normal people who have no name or fame whatsoever, are changing the world. Housewives, unemployed fathers, students, teenagers, businessmen, medical doctors, teachers, prisoners,… literally people from every walk of life, are doing something that is transforming the consciousness of humanity. No longer is the world entirely controlled by Big Media, Big Government, Big Pharma, Big Banking and Big Tech. No longer is mankind listing only to the voices on the Big Screens. There is a movement emerging, and increasing in force every day, of regular people who are all joining in the same battle, to free the world from the tyrannical mind control by the elite, who own all the ‘Big’ things. What is this new army of truth doing? They are spreading truth by all means…. Some post it all over social media, others hand out flyers, some put-up posters, many are sending emails to their contacts, and the real warriors who are making the greatest impact do all of these things… and more! This is not one single man of woman, who can be censored or arrested.It is an army of many millions of people.“
“They are shocked to discover how they have been lied to, and how their lives are under attack by money hungry madmen, who are using them to further enrich themselves. They are enraged to find out how severely the governments have been lying to them. They are infuriated to see how innocent children are being abused by this elite. They have been aroused from a deep sleep of total ignorance, and suddenly they see what is going on. Their hearts are on fire with a righteous fury against the crimes that are terrorizing humanity as a whole. They are passionate with a burning compassion for the hurting world, and they are willing to risk their very lives, to stop this cruelty….” Carry on reading…
Other things you can do to support your health: Make kefir easy yourself (and boost your gut based immune system): buy organic milk + one small bottle of kefir. Add a cup full of kefir to the milk, shake, and keep it in a warm(ish) place. Shake again twice a day; after one or two days the milk has fermented into kefir. Keep refrigerated and use some of this kefir to start the next one. Humming has antiviral properties andinhibits the replication of SARS-CoV. If you can’t avoid a PCR test, you could hum a while to increase the NO before, to avoid a “positice” result. Or put a drop of iodine on salt in a squeezy bottle and sniff it up your nose and inhale. You find more tips and inspiration how to stay healthy during these strange times in the article “We Need To Focus On The Immuune System…“
STOP watching TV news and listening to BBC radio 4.
You will notice how the spell of fear and manipulation slowly dissolves.
Surround yourself with silence, and you may find more inspiration coming from within.
One night, two mice fell into a milk pot and could not get out any more. They tried in vain and got exhausted. “What’s the point – I give up” said one mouse and drowned. “I am not giving up” said the other mouse and kept paddeling. By the morning, the milk was churned into a lump of butter, which enabled the mouse to get out. Focussed persistance leads to success.
Inspire others the way you are. Show courage. Speak out! “All evil needs to succeed, is the good to say nothing”
Be an example for others. Center in your heart. Surround yourself with silence and beauty, so you can establish contact to inspiration. Find inner peace, trust and stability. Breathe. Fear nothing. Radiate joy,humour and love. Share a smile, laugh – and be lovingly human. Dance like nobody’s watching. Talk like nobody’s listening…

“grant me the strength to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom to know the difference”
“We do not have to become heroes overnight. Just a step at a time, meeting each thing that comes up, seeing it is not as dreadful as it appeared, discovering we have the strength to stare it down” [Eleanor Roosevelt]
Once you have reached some peace and stability in yourself, you are in a good position to step up, speak out and share what you know is true.

Behaving like a normal loving human being might be the most revolutionary thing you can do.
Don’t be so serious. You can speak the truth and laugh and joke about it – this way you can break the ice of those spellbound by fear. A brilliant example is George Carlin in the video below. Humour can unite us, wether we fear the virus or the virus politics.

Knowledge is Power – Empower Yourself!
Study independent sources. Knowledge will free you from FEAR, by debunking the threats of the virus – and the police state over you. Know the basics of the “Law of the Land” and how to speak “legalese”. Here is a 1/2 hour short recommended introduction:
“Empowering yourself during covid” – half an hour video about the basics of Common Law (Law of the Land) and Admiral Law (Law of the Sea) youtu.be/y-8oTFK9CAQ
The above video is highly recommended if you are fearful of authorities and officials. Once you realise it is all like a game they play with you and when you know the rules, it is easy, and you will feel free and laugh again.
POWER TO THE PEOPLE “Together we stand, divided we fall” a new website supporting YOU:
Mind the trap of overloading yourself with information watching endless videos – there is no end to it. All it will do is raising your information level to a hight where nobody else can follow you any more – and you lose your time and energy.
STOP. Digest. Reflect. Sleep a night over it and plan and organise something you can DO. Doing a small thing is better than watching or reading about a big thing.
You may have “lost” several friends; by talking freely to others, you will soon find new connections. Exchange phone numbers or e-mail. Start a “secret” chat group.
Battling alone is strenuous: find other like minded people, connect with local people and get organised to inform and support and encourage each other.

Alone you are likely to become depressed, hopeless, ill and a victim. TOGETHER we are strong and will succeed. MANY science studies confirm, that a good social life is essential for health and longevity:
“How to live active and happy past 100 – Be free from pain. Hear the real stories.” on youtu.be/kODZ1TROs_0 – LOTS of examples show the importance of social integration; loneliness kills. Meditation is another pillar of good health – and avoiding looking into screens
Connect with others DIRECTLY without using a phone, zoom, email or other electronic ways or square screens. Remember: all the money used to manipulate media, politics, science and medicine through the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation came through profits made from ‘Windows’ software. You do NOT want to support them by using their smart products!
Social Media…
Many people, especially in the UK, tend to “keep calm and carry on” – hoping by not sticking their heads out, but complying, they will avoid trouble. PLEASE consideer: there are many people who are waiting for SOMEONE to do something or speak out. Or they wait until two or three speak out – and then they join. YOU can be the one encouraging someone else to speak out by setting an example. Don’t be a coward.
Dietrich Bonhoeffer’s encouragement to SPEAK OUT before it is too late
Facebook friends and groups: “Unfriending” or ignoring everyone who has a different opinion than you will deepen the divide. There’s no point preaching to the converted – go where the dissenters are. Best places to reach others outside your echo chamber are groups. You need two kinds of groups: one kind of group to find critical information (best national groups) – and then the diverse or local discussion groups where you can discuss and debate and share things like virus politics. You will spot people agreeing with you, and can connect and start a local info- and support network.
Be polite in your language. Forget about “fighting others” or calling them “idiots” – this will NOT open them up, but cause them to put up their defenses. Read what they are sharing and fearing and meet them where they are. Invite them from heart to heart. Some people seriously still think the virus is the problem, and they do their best to react “to save lives”. Would you agree, that a good starting point is asking questions?
Gradually withdraw your custom from Facebook, Google, YouTube, Twitter and Vimeo who make profit with your data and censor and interfere with information and free speech. Consider joining MeWe.com or other alternative social networks who do not steal your data or censor your content. Find communication ways which are not intercepted by dark forces. Signal and Telegramare much better than WhatsApp.
Money, profit, greed and power are driving most politics and conflicts. We need to directly target this at the source:
1) Don’t buy anything at big bad companies or corporations (like Amazon) 2) Do not work for big bad companies or corporations 3) Team up with others and start your own business or support a small ethical venture 4) Start to trade and exchange goods and services with each other without money in a LETS scheme (Local Exchange & Trade System) or a “Time Bank” based on time as currency. 5)Prepare for the “Great Reset” which will likely follow a phase of hyperinflation and a tsunamy of bancruptcies. Try to get through the expected turmoil without ending in debt, which cmay result in you becoming a slave of “the system”, having to give up your liberties and accept various conditions.
MAKE A PLAN for a new life and consider leaving your job and moving away from big cities and office jobs. Connect with nature and learn how to grow food; plant fruit trees, may be keep chickens. Learn skills like gardening, cooking, building, repairing – you may be surprised how fulfilling and useful these can be.

Contact With Authorities:
Ignore the uniforms and hats they wear and the authority they represent. Approach them as human beings. Ask them personal questions. Be peaceful and non violent. Know your rights and the basic “legalese” language. Don’t try to push them away (distance leads to confrontation) but invite them close, look into their eyes and feel their heart energy. Invite them to agree with your view, (hopefully) the side of humanity. WARNING: The UK Column reported on 11 (or was it 14th?) December, that police officers try to involve you into personal conversation and THEN arrest you accusing you disrespecting their authority. Not sure what to make of that?
Focus on unity to overcome the “divide and rule” situation. Visualise that police, military, Council Covid Marshalls and forces in private contract agree with you and protect you (instead of fighting you) Extinction Rebellion XR were very successful not calling police nasty names, but “we love you!” The strategy could be “embrace – not fight”.
The Universe Supports Risk
Below is a lovely poem by Herman Hesse: “Steps” Even when you think you have no chance: take it! When all seems hopeless and dark, remember: some blessings come as a disguise. This poem encourages us to dare taking steps into the unknown:
“Steps” by the German poet Hermann Hesse from “The Glass Bead Game”
As every blossom fades and all youth sinks into old age, so every life’s design, each flower of wisdom, every good attains its prime and cannot last forever. In life, each call the heart must be prepared courageously without a hint of grief, submit itself to other new ties. A magic dwells in each beginning, protecting us tells us how to live.
High purposed we must traverse realm on realm, cleaving to none as to a home, the world of spirit wishes not to fetter us but raise us higher, step by step. Scarce in some safe accustomed sphere of life have we establish a house, then we grow lax; only he who is ready to journey forth can throw old habits off.
Maybe death’s hour too will send us out new-born towards undreamed-lands, maybe life’s call to us will never find an end … Courage my heart, take leave and fare thee well.
With local Councils having more powers, they also have more responsibility – and accountability. We urge you, our Council, to follow the independent science, rather than the government, to avoid illness and deaths especially among the younger population.
We are ashamed that some of our businesses which are pillars of social wellbeing have been fined £1000 in the past for not complying with government guidelines. We demand the immediate and permanent cessation of all restrictions and plans for any future lockdown.
We ask our Councillors and Council, to support the people and local businesses, and use all your powers and forces to secure and protect the freedom of choice, movement and going about our own business.
We expect you to decline the government’s requests to spy on us with covid marshalls, video vans and Council officers controlling what the people, local businesses and organisations do, and support us instead. Freedom is the basis and precondition for happiness and health.

“Ramping up heavy-handed enforcement of rules will do more harm than good” and: “Hiring undercover officers to spy on people is an insult to the efforts communities across the country have made to look after and protect each other during the pandemic.”[libertyhumanrights.org.uk] “Lockdown was a monumental disaster on a global scale. The cure was worse than the disease.” [Prof. Mark Woodhouse, Express] “Is this serious enough to warrant putting most of our population into house imprisonment, wrecking our economy for an indefinite period, destroying businesses that honest and hardworking people have taken years to build up, saddling future generations with debt, depression, stress, heart attacks, suicides and unbelievable distress inflicted on millions of people who are not especially vulnerable, and will suffer only mild symptoms or none at all?”[former Supreme Court Judge , Lord John Sumption in a BBC interviw]
On HealthTruth.info is a thorough analysis of the virus situation with evidence that “the cure has been much worse than the disease”:
SARS-CoV-2 fatalities have been vastly exaggerated based on “not fit for purpose” PCR tests with high false positives and statistical manipulations like labelling fatalities within 28 days of a positive test result as “covid deaths” – regardless of the cause of death.
22 scientists found 10 major flaws peer reviewing the scientific paper used as basis for the PCR test, which clearly shows the PCR test is not fit for purpose.
The overall herd immunity in Britain is over 70%, and the Herd Immunity Threshold HIT of 17% (point of “flattening the curve”) was reached already a year ago.
More than 100 studies show that “loneliness and isolation kill” – on the other hand socialising, human contact and touch, singing and dancing together, laughing with friends and relatives all contribute to happiness, mental, social and overall health and wellbeing.

CLARIFICATION: SARS-COV-2 is a virus many of us carry without any symptoms. Covid-19 is a respiratory disease caused by SARS-COV-2. REMINDER: the problem is NOT any coronavirus, but the human immune system not functioning properly.
Below is a road map how to steer healthy through the next virus season, listing the logical changes we need to makeafter we analysedall we’ve got wrong so far.
“Health is a state of complete physical, mental and social well-being and not merely the absence of disease or other physical impairment“ [WHO]
HERE is a video by Canadian doctors, explaining in less than 12 minutes why we do NOT need to fear SARS-CoV-2 and can have more trust in our immune system:
In case of doubt or confusion: don’t do anything which could make you ill, and follow the INDEPENDENT science, and double check dependent government advisers for industry bias. While the “cases” go up, people don’t die any more from covid-19.
Cases are currently 90% false positives, the virus has mutated, and as with SARS or MERS or any yearly flu, the Herd Immunity Threshold HIT was reached in April. We can safely assume there will be no “second wave” (unless people make themselves ill by not looking after their immune system). Read more below.
The Daily Mail UK reports on 22 Nov: Covid UK: Facts about the risks, the death rate, and NHS capacity: “the number of Covid-19 deaths is significantly lower than the peak back in April. Latest ONS estimate shows that in the week ending November 14, new infections were already levelling off “
There will be no 2nd wave of Coronavirus. There is no research literature that underscores the belief in a second wave. [Dr Mike Yeadon, former chief scientific adviser of Pfizer]
Speaking on the Julia Hartley-Brewer breakfast show on Talk Radio, Dr Mike Yeadon, former chief scientific adviser of Pfizer Pharmaceuticals (allergy and respiratory research department), has predicted there will be no 2nd wave of Coronavirus. He points out, that the previous SARS and MERS viruses only came once, no second wave. He also said the current pcr testing brings up 90% false positives. He said he was “going to challenge the Government to cite the research literature that underscores their belief in a second wave… such literature does not exist.” If he is right then the actions of the government will be proved to be unnecessary.
“Spain is ahead of the UK”, showing many (mostly asymptomatic and false) positive “cases” – and no deaths. There is NOTHING to panic about.
Spain is some weeks ahead of the UK and shows a HUGE spike of so called “cases”, but no more deaths than seasonal. source: worldometers
UK on 21 October: the so called “cases” are 4x higher than during the April peak But the deaths are 5x lower (slight number increase as usuallyin autumn) [source: worldometers.info
It can however be expected, that the huge backlog of missed hospital appointments due to the first lockdown will lead to an increase in hospital admissions. The virus fear stress will result in lowered immunity and increased illness in the population. As a positive pcr test result at the (mandatory) test at hospital admissions will override other causes of death if the patient should die within 28 days after being tested positive, there is a guearanteed number of covid deaths in the future. See more in the previous article in the Covid Deaths Statistics chapter.
It is a well-known fact that in every “flu wave”, 7-15% of acute respiratory illnesses (ARI) come along with coronaviruses (Glasgow study) “with no clinical significance. It is just another name for acute respiratory illnesses (ARI), which as every year put 30% to 70% of all people in our countries more or less out of action for a week or two every winter. According to a prospective article ARI-virus monitoring in Glasgow from 2005 to 2013, the most common pathogens of acute respiratory diseases were: 1. rhinoviruses, 2. influenza A viruses, 3. influenza B viruses, 4. RS viruses and 5. coronaviruses.” If we remove any of these viruses, other pathogens will take the place.[www.wodarg.com]. COVID-19 / SARS-CoV-2) can cause a cytokine storm of overzealous immune responses, that generate so much cytokine secretion (hypercytokinesis), that it spills over into the lungs.
“CRUCIAL Viral Update: Critique of Data sending UK into Lockdown Meltdown” This video clearly explains everything: data, statistics, virus seasons and why the post pandemic should be called endemic. Link: youtu.be/7wifZ9oBrZE
Common cold could be protecting you from Covid-19: You may have cursed that cold you had last winter—but it could be protecting you against Covid-19. Your immune response may have been just a dress rehearsal for the more virulent SARS-COV-2 virus that causes Covid-19. A cold, another coronas virus, produces memory cells—known as B cells—that know how to respond if you encounter the Covid virus. People recovering from Covid-19 have a pre-existing pool of memory B cells that rapidly produce antibodies, say researchers from the University of Rochester Medical Center. Memory B cells can detect pathogens and create antibodies to destroy them. The protection is long-lasting and may even protect you for the rest of your life. Once infected by a virus, another from the same family will trigger a much faster response and could even clear an infection before it takes hold. The fact that most of us have had a cold could also explain why so many people with Covid-19 are asymptomatic, that is, have no symptoms. The researchers analysed blood samples from 26 people recovering from mild to moderate Covid-19 and compared them with 21 healthy donors whose samples had been collected up to 10 years ago. They measured levels of memory B cells and antibodies that target proteins that are common in all coronaviruses, such as Covid, SARS, MERS, and the common cold. [from the original study]
The best support for our immune system is: • do everything that is good for you and your immune system • don’t do anything which is bad for your health
The worldometer statistic shows, (7 October), that 96+% of ‘cases’ have recovered from COVID-19 / SARS-CoV-2 and the deaths with coronavirus keep dropping. Keep in mind, that about 19 out of 20 deaths were caused by underlying conditions. The UK withholds the huge number of recovered cases.
Here is a VERY good video, clearly explaining the virus statistics, why people die or not, and how to see all in context:
https://youtu.be/J3vDsKEOIQI
“The last word on Sweden” by Ivor Cummins. Video on youtu.be/J3vDsKEOIQI “Why don’t people just look at the bloody data?”
“COVID-19 Study of Almost Ten Million Finds No Evidence of Asymptomatic Spread” [20 December] Not a single transmission of Coronavirus from a person without symptoms. The research paper also indicates that “virulence of SARS-CoV-2 virus may be weakening over time”. “If asymptomatic transmission is not happening,… then all of the current lock-down regulations, mask wearing requirements and social distancing rules/decrees are based on a complete fallacy of false assumptions.”
“Health is a state of complete physical, mental and social well-being and not merely the absence of disease or other physical impairment“ [WHO] Which of the two lions you thinkis more healthy?
Safety has a price. Freedom is the basis of health and happiness.
WHO: “we appeal to all world leaders: stop using lockdown as your primary control method.” The only thing lockdowns achieved was poverty. [Dr. David Nabarro, 11 October 2020]
News.com.au reports on 11 Oct: WHO: “we really do appeal to all world leaders: stop using lockdown as your primary control method. Develop better systems for doing it. Work together and learn from each other.” Dr. David Nabarro also claimed that the only thing lockdowns achieved was poverty – with no mention of the potential lives saved. “we may well have a doubling of world poverty by next year. We may well have at least a doubling of child malnutrition.” Experience shows: you can’t control a virus – but the population.
A number of health experts from all over the world came together calling for an end to coronavirus lockdowns earlier this week. They created a petition, called the Great Barrington Declaration, which said that lockdowns were doing “irreparable damage.” [ By 11 October, the Great Barrington Declaration, was signed by 7,447 Medical & Public Health Scientists, 17,087 Medical Practitioners and 259,458 general public ]
The WorldDoctorsAlliance.comtakes a more radical approach and had 7487 signatories by 17 October.
“Long periods of lockdown could weaken the immune system and leave people more vulnerable to dangerous viruses and pandemics”, Oxford epidemiologist Prof Sunetra Gupta warns. Intense social distancing could leave people unexposed to germs and not develop defences against new viruses. She added that ‘if we return to the point where we have no exposure’ society would be ‘like clumps of trees waiting to be set ablaze‘. ”
Safety comes with a price to pay…
“International travel helps to build up defences against new and emerging viruses“

Summary: we have robust, broad and highly functional memory T cell responses preventing recurrent episodes of severe COVID-19 or other coronavirus mutations. They identify and destroy infected cells and inform B cells about how to craft new virus-targeting antibodies. T cell memory lasts at least 17 years, possibly life long.
Covid infection shown to provide as much immunity as vaccines [Financial Times, 14 January 2021] People who have already contracted coronavirus are as protected against reinfection as those who have received the best Covid-19 vaccines, according to a survey of 20,000 UK healthcare workers, the largest study in the world so far. Public Health England regularly tested two matched groups of volunteers between June and November — 6,000 health workers who had previously been infected with coronavirus and 14,000 who had not. A comparison of infections in the two groups, described in preliminary results released on Thursday, found that prior infection provided at least 83 per cent protection against reinfection. It gave better than 94 per cent protection against symptomatic Covid-19, matching the figures for the most effective Covid-19 vaccines. “Natural infection looks as good as a vaccine, which is very good news for the population” Susan Hopkins, PHE senior medical adviser said. People who had recovered from Covid-19 were less likely to transmit the virus to others unknowingly, because natural infection appeared to provide about 75 per cent protection against asymptomatic reinfection. Eleanor Riley, professor of virology at the University of Edinburgh, said: “If you believe you already had the disease and are protected, you can be reassured it is highly unlikely you will develop severe infection” [STUDY ARTICLE preprint 18 Dec 2020: “SIREN protocol: Impact of detectable anti-SARS-CoV-2 on the subsequent incidence of COVID-19 in 100,000 healthcare workers: do antibody positive healthcare workers have less reinfection than antibody negative healthcare workers?“]
After being infected with coronavirus, people become immune. “A number of reported cases of coronavirus patients relapsing after overcoming the disease were actually due to testing failures, South Korean scientists say… the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) test results for the suspected relapsed patients were false positives. Researchers at the South Korean centre for disease control and prevention (CDC) now say it is impossible for the COVID-19 virus to reactivate in human bodies. The CDC added that unlike other viruses,… the coronavirus stays outside of the host cell’s nucleus.” “This means it does not cause chronic infection or recurrence,” explained Dr Oh Myoung-don, the head of the South Korea’s CDC committee. 01/05/2020

On 28 August Neoscope reports: DOCTORS CONFIRM FOR FIRST TIME THAT PATIENT CAUGHT COVID TWICE: A new study published in the journal Clinical Infectious Diseases today reports that a 33-year-old man showed mild symptoms the first time he was infected, and no symptoms the second time. The patient was infected by two genetically different strains of the coronavirus. “Our results prove that his second infection is caused by a new virus that he acquired recently rather than prolonged viral shedding,” Kelvin Kai-Wang To, clinical microbiologist at the University of Hong Kong, said in the statement. “This is a textbook example of how immunity should work,” Yale School of Medicine professor Akiko Iwasaki, wrote in a Monday tweet. “While immunity was not enough to block reinfection, it protected the person from disease.”
We now have evidence that everyone develops long-term coronavirus immunity after infection
The study: “Robust T cell immunity in convalescent individuals with asymptomatic or mild COVID-19” (14 August) “SARS-CoV-2-specific T cells were detectable in antibody-seronegative exposed family members and convalescent individuals with a history of asymptomatic and mild COVID-19. Our collective dataset shows that SARS-CoV-2 elicits robust, broad and highly functional memory T cell responses, suggesting that natural exposure or infection may prevent recurrent episodes of severe COVID-19″.
The “Business Insider” comments on this: “The new finding is strong evidence that all patients likely develop long-term immunity… Memory T cells are an especially key type, since they identify and destroy infected cells and inform B cells about how to craft new virus-targeting antibodies. They canstick around for years, while antibody levels drop following an infection.”
The New York Times reports on 16 August: Scientists See Signs of Lasting Immunity to Covid-19, Even After Mild Infections “Scientists who have been monitoring immune responses to the virus are now starting to see encouraging signs of strong, lasting immunity, even in people who developed only mild symptoms of Covid-19, a flurry of newstudiessuggests. Disease-fighting antibodies, as well as immune cells called B cells and T cells that are capable of recognizing the virus, appear to persist months after infections have resolved… the body retains a battalion of longer-lived B cells that can churn out virus-fighting antibodies en masse, should they prove useful again.”
The best times to gain immunity for coronavirus are summer or autumn, before the flu season. This way you do not become a burden for the NHS hospitals AND you become a protector of the vulnerable by being immune in the winter.
Immunological research has revealed that serological (i.e. blood) antibody studies detect at most 20% of infections, as most people neutralize the coronavirus with their mucosal or cellular immune system without even needing to develop (permanent) antibodies in the blood
This pie chart explains the findings : no antibodies in the blood, but immunity (screeenshot from an amazing scientific immunity lecture by Creon Levit, Chief Scientist of Planet Labs (22 June) The percentage of an unexposed population is certain to be
60% of people are naturally RESISTANT to SARS-COV2. Sars-Cov-2-specific antibodies only appear in the most severe cases, about 1 out of 5. That means: Sars-Cov-2 is five times less deadly than currently assumed [off-guardian.org/2020/06/12/study-80] – and: the number of people who have gained immunity is five times higher than positive blood test resultsshow.
THIS explains, why the Immunity Threshold HIT (see chapter below) causing the DECREASE of infections after the peak period only needs 10 – 20% of the population in addition to the 50+% who are already ‘naturally’ resistant.
A cold, another coronas virus, produces memory cells—known as B cells—that know how to respond if you encounter the Covid virus. People recovering from Covid-19 have a pre-existing pool of memory B cells that rapidly produce antibodies. Memory B cells can detect pathogens and create antibodies to destroy them.
The protection is long-lastingand may even protect you for the rest of your life.Once infected by a virus, another from the same family will trigger a much faster response and could even clear an infection before it takes hold.
The fact that most of us have had a cold could also explain why so many people with Covid-19 are asymptomatic, that is, have no symptoms. The researchers analysed blood samples from 26 people recovering from mild to moderate Covid-19 and compared them with 21 healthy donors whose samples had been collected 6 to 10 years ago. They measured levels of memory B cells and antibodies that target proteins that are common in all coronaviruses, such as Covid, SARS, MERS, and the common cold. [from the study: “S Protein-Reactive IgG and Memory B Cell Production after Human SARS-CoV-2 Infection“]
So it seems Britain has reached the herd immunity, and we do not need to fear any more virus transmissions nor outbreaks, as “the virus” has no chance to go rampant any more:
Modelling by University College London (UCL) suggests that 73.4 per cent of the population will have protection against Covid by April 12, 2021 – by Mail Online
The Herd Immunity Threshold (HIT) defines the percentage of the population that needs to be immune to reverse epidemic growth and prevent future waves. medRxiv published an article on 21 May 2020, stating: “While herd immunity is expected to require 60-70% of a homogeneous population to be immune given an R0 between 2.5 and 3, these percentages drop to the range 10-20% for CVs between 2 and 4.”
Herd Immunity Threshold (HIT) for SARS-CoV-2 transmission in heterogeneous populations can be as low as 10-20%
This suggests, we don’t need to panic to just get over any next virus wave naturally by letting the virus come and go in the usual bell-shaped curve.
Like other respiratotry diseases, including the 2003 SARS epidemic, the virus remains only about two months in any given population, yet the peak incidence and the lethality can vary.
Please notice: Dr. Knut Wittkowski does not claim there would be no casualties at all.
“Any temporary advantage from mitigation comes at the expense of lower population immunity and higher cumulative deaths” “It is herd immunity that stops the spread of an infectious disease, so in general, one would want to let the epidemic initially run its natural course (or even accelerate it, as people have traditionally done with “measles parties”) to build immunity as fast as possible” [Dr. Wittkowski, 28 March 2020, from: researchgate.net]
Fig 1: SIR Model of SARS. Number of susceptible (blue), infectious (red), and resistant (green) people after a population of 10,000,000 susceptible people is exposed to 20 subjects infected carrying a novel virus. Assumptions: R0 =2.2, infectious period = 7 days
The % rate of deaths (orange line) is going down to 6% in the US, while the recovered / discharged from hospital cases (green line) goes up to 94%, confirming the herd immunity threshold model explained above. Source: worldometer 4 Aug 2020 The UK has been hiding the recovered cases number.
When we use a different model, the situation looks MUCH better and is more likely to reflect reality. The study led by Dr Gabriela Gomes, a mathematician at the Liverpool School of Tropical Medicine and the University of Strathclyde. If the virus spreads more rampantly among the most socially active group, the level of immunity they build up could protect people in the less active groups.
The ‘herd immunity threshold’ (HIT) can be estimated from the basic reproduction rate of the epidemic, R0 – a measure of how many people, on average, each infected individual infects. Standard simple compartmental models of epidemic growth imply that the HIT equals {1 – 1/R0}. Once the HIT is passed, the rate of new infections starts to decline, which should ensure that health systems will not thereafter be overwhelmed and makes it more practicable to take steps to eliminate the disease. A recent paper (Gomes et al.[7]) shows that variation between individuals in their susceptibility to infection and their propensity to infect others can cause the HIT to be much lower than it is in a homogeneous population. The Swedish public health authority estimated that 17% of the Stockholm population would have been infected by 11 April, rising to 25% by 1 May 2020.[5] Yet recorded new cases had stopped increasing by 11 April, as had net hospital admissions,[6] and both measures have fallen significantly since. That pattern indicates that the HIT had been reached by 11April, at which point only 17% of the population appear to have been infected. [Why herd immunity to COVID-19 is reached much earlier than thought]
Dr. Scott W. Atlas, senior fellow at Stanford’s Hoover Institution: “Vital population immunity is prevented by total isolation policies, are prolonging the problem.” Therefore: “protect the known vulnerable, self-isolate the mildly sick and open most workplaces and small businesses with some prudent large-group precautions.“ “This would allow the essential socialising to generate immunity among those with minimal risk of serious consequence, while saving lives, preventing overcrowding of hospitals and limiting the enormous harms compounded by continued total isolation,” [www.wnd.com April 2020]
Viruses are essential for our health. Scientists have determined that there are approximately: • 30 trillion cells in the average size human body • 40 trillion bacteria on and in the human body • 380 trillion viruses on and in the human body There are thousands of species of bacteria and viruses that compete for space and control of our tissues, made up of beneficial players, opportunists and harmful actors. These organisms are significantly influenced by how we live, exercise, sleep, what we eat and drink and these lifestyle factors even effect how our genes are expressed. We call all these healthy organisms symbiotic, because we both benefit from each other. In fact, we could not survive without them!
Beneficial bacteria are the housekeepers and defenders of our gastrointestinal (G.I.) tract. They produce B-vitamins, brain signalling molecules like serotonin (the antidepressant “brain” hormone—about 80% of it is made in the gut), short chain fatty acids that feed and maintain the cells lining our G.I. tract.
Bacteria regulate pro-inflammatory and anti-inflammatory cytokines (cell signalling protein molecules) to prevent autoimmune and inflammatory diseases and numerous other beneficial activities. Healthy bacteria also live in our mouths, on our skin, and in all the nooks and crannies of our body. They all have vital housekeeping chores in those places. The strength of the health and population numbers of our beneficial bacteria are the first line of defence of our entire immune system. It is estimated that 70% of our immune system resides in the Gut [from “Why Has Everyone Seemingly Forgotten How the Immune System Works?“]
Bacteria, Germs, fungi and viruses are part of us. Humans first make contact with theirs in the birth canal. From that moment forward, microbes help bolster our immune systems, helping our bodies learn to live with viral diseases that enter our bloodstream. They boost the immune system, protect us from auto-immune diseases, keep us slim, detoxify and may fight off stress and keep babies healthy. TED blog by microbiologist Dr. Jonathan Eisen
The World Health Organization has actually advised against trying to kill SARS-CoV-2 with disinfectants, both outdoors or across large indoor spaces, stating it may do more harm than good.
We need to connect with nature, get our hands dirty in good soil, have physical contact with animals and other humans and expose our immune system to all those to “keep it fit”.
“Daycares in Finland Built a ‘Forest Floor’, And It Changed Children’s Immune Systems“ “When daycare workers in Finland rolled out a lawn, planted forest undergrowth such as dwarf heather and blueberries, and allowed children to care for crops in planter boxes, the diversity of microbes in the guts and on the skin of young kids appeared healthier in a very short space of time.” “Compared to other city kids who play in standard urban daycares with yards of pavement, tile and gravel, 3-, 4-, and 5-year-olds at these greened-up daycare centres in Finland showed increased T-cells and other important immune markers in their blood within 28 days. “ “Prior research has shown early exposure to green space is somehow linked to a well-functioning immune system.”

Simply avoiding any seasonal virus (at a high cost for society, economy and psychological trauma) makes no sense, as it will return in the next season. What would make sense is to strengthen our immune system, and achieve a herd immunity in the young and healthy population, which will protect the old and infirm and those who are immune system compromised.
Why don’t we stop fighting this virus and make friends with coronavirus instead? Waging war against a virus is like waging war against ourselves.
This flower like inner nature of the virus (cut open) looks beautiful.
Waging war against a virus is like waging war against ourselves.
Keeping a pet or working with animals strengthens the immune system According to Dr. Wolfgang Wodard, there is a “regularly recurring presence of corona viruses in dogs, cats, pigs, mice, bats and in humans”. “Dogs, who come with their own set of allergy-suppressing microbes, are the most beneficial to a household’s microbial health, helping to strengthen the immune systems of its children.” [NY Post]
The Times reports on 28 August: No child who was not already profoundly ill has died of Covid-19 in Britain, a large study has indicated
Children are NOT spreading coronavirus.
“Scientists are yet to find a single confirmed case of a teacher catching coronavirus from a pupil anywhere in the world”, [professor Mark Woolhouse]
“in hindsight closing schools in March was probably a mistake, but the limited role children play in spreading the virus only became clear further along the infection curve.” As an infectious disease epidemiologist at Edinburgh University, Mark Woolhouse is a member of the UK government’s scientific advisory group, SAGE.
A Rapid Systematic Review published in the Lancet in April Effectiveness of school social distancing measures found “no data were available“, “school closures made very little difference” and “there were school children diagnosed with SARS in Singapore, none of them were identified through temperature screening” and “There was no evidence of spread of the infection in schools, with spread among children almost entirely through family settings and living in the same apartment blocks as infected cases.”
Why Kids Need to Spend Time in Nature: “Most of the studies agree that kids who play outside are smarter, happier, more attentive, and less anxious than kids who spend more time indoors.” “While calling it a disorder might be merely rhetorical, it’s clear kids spend significantly more time inside than outside. This shift is largely due to technology: The average American child is said to spend 4 to 7 minutes a day in unstructured play outdoors, and over 7 hours a day in front of a screen.“ Nature reduces stress and fatigue. According to the Attention Restoration Theory, urban environments exhaust our brains. In natural environments, we practice an effortless type of attention known as soft fascination that creates feelings of pleasure, not fatigue.
Could it be, that coronavirus brings underlying conditions to the surface we did not even know before? The mantra “a healthy immune system will deal with all” does not always work, as ‘The Atlantic’ reports on 4 June: COVID-19 Can Last for Several Months. The disease’s “long-haulers” [or: long covid] have endured relentless waves of debilitating symptoms—and disbelief from doctors and friends. Myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome (ME/CFS) is typically diagnosed when symptoms persist for six months or more. About 40 percent of the residents who survived the SARS epidemic of 2003 had chronic-fatigue problems after three years or so, and 27 percent met the CDC’s criteria for ME/CFS. Many different acute pathogens seem to trigger the same inflammatory responses that culminate in the same chronic endgame. This is post-exertional malaise—the defining feature of ME/CFS. It’s a severe multi-organ crash that follows activity as light as a short walk. It’s also distinct from mere exhaustion: You can’t just push through it, and you’ll feel much worse if you try. The ME/CFS community has learned that resting as much as possible in the early months of postviral fatigue is crucial. The condition is especially underdiagnosed among black and brown communities, who are also disproportionately likely to be infected and killed by COVID-19. But recovery is not a simple matter of flipping a switch. For some, it will take more time than the entire duration of the pandemic thus far.
On the 19th August The Atlantic reports: David Putrino, a neuroscientist and a rehabilitation specialist at Mount Sinai Hospital, has surveyed long-haulers, most are women. Their average age is 44. Most were formerly fit and healthy and experienced illnesses, such as dysautonomia (disorders that disturb the autonomic nervous system) and myalgic encephalomyelitis. In an Italian study with 143 patients, 87 percent of hospitalised patients still had at least one symptom after two months, particularly fatigue and dyspnea. A British study found similar trends, including insomnia. More than 90 percent of long-haulers whom Putrino has worked with, also have “post-exertional malaise,” in which even mild bouts of physical or mental exertion can trigger a severe physiological crash. The trick is to slowly recondition a patient’s nervous system through careful exercises like relaxation and somatic-awareness techniques, without triggering a debilitating crash. Many long-haulers start feeling better in their fourth or fifth month.
Dr. Wodarg points out that it’s not so much the virus itself that causes long term damage, but the body’s own disturbed immune-response that causes the damage. Seen in the light of the existing science on the same kind of ‘damage’ caused by Influenza it would indeed suggest that the alleged unique damage caused by COVID-19 is not that unique at all. Claims of ‘permanent damage’ made only 2-4 month after the infections took place are premature.
“Seen in the light of the existing science on the same kind of‘damage’ caused by Influenza it would indeed suggest that the alleged unique damage caused by COVID-19 is not that unique at all.” [Dr. W. Wodarg]
It seems like coronavirus works as a catalyst, bringing hidden weaknesses or underlying health conditions to the surface. Why don’t we use this opportunity to get our health into resiliant shape? Long-haulers support group on Facebook. Research: Chronic Fatigue Syndrome – dysautonomia – dyspnea
In the article “Is Niacin a Missing Piece of the COVID Puzzle?” are the following tips: as a “health restorative therapy” for those diagnosed with SARS-CoV-2, they recommend starting with a dose of 500 milligrams of immediate-release niacin, two to three times a day, ideally within the first 48 hours of symptom onset. As your flush response lessens, increase your dose to 1,000 mg, two to three times a day. [source]
“For the subgroup of patients still suffering with high cytokines profiles from deep, remnant damage of previously experienced SARS-CoV-2 infection — termed the ‘long-haulers‘ — alleviation from ailment(s) towards complete health restoration to pre-infection state from initiating and maintaining the aforementioned dosage regimen has consistently been reported to assume within two days and to incrementally follow further over the course of weeks.”24
Dr. Mercola comments: “My research suggests you really only need about 25 mg per day of niacin, which will not cause flushing in nearly anyone. I believe most would benefit from taking 25 mg of niacin daily, preferably in a well-balanced B complex, which would have thiamine (B1) that has also been shown to be useful in COVID-19.. I believe a superior strategy to high-dose niacin in acute COVID-19 would be to use nebulized hydrogen peroxide at 0.1%. .”
A Supercomputer Analyzed Covid-19 and led to the bradykinin hypothesis, providing a model that explains many aspects of Covid-19, including some of its most bizarre symptoms. It also suggests 10-plus potential treatments, many of which are already FDA approved. Jacobson’s group published their results in a paper in the journal eLife in early July. This hypothesis might point towards demystifying the covid long-haulers?
It would be SO much better for everyone’s health, if the Health Ministry would actively support and promote events where people get together and de-stress dancing, singing, laughing or groups and events for relaxation.
Happy people are more likely to also be healthy. Unhappy people are more likely to feel and become ill
Without proper sleep, your immune system can’t produce the special proteins your body needs to fight off infections and inflammation.
Uncertainty, worries about the future or job loss, and fear of the unknown virus causes stress; as a result we will sooner or later come down with any illness (see Lockdown Loneliness & Isolation).
Stop watching TV news or reading the daily paper, and do something creative, or any relaxing activities instead! Meeting good friends and sharing your worries helps you cope in troubled times.
Laughter Yogaunwinds the negative effects of stress and strengthens your immune system. It is an exercise program for Health and Wellbeing. If you laugh every day, you will not fall sick easily.

Loneliness is an important social stressor that can activate the body’s stress responses. When prolonged, that response can lead to increased inflammation and reduced immunity, particularly in older adults. Inflammation is the body’s response to fight off infection or heal an injury, but when it continues unchecked it can have a harmful impact on health. Under chronic stress, the body becomes less sensitive to the effects of the stress hormones, leading to increased inflammation and eventually disease.
“Health is a state of complete physical, mental and social well-being and not merely the absence of disease or other physical impairment“ [WHO]
“Without social activities, without joy, without thrill, without hugs and kisses, without plans, hopes and dreams, we will cease to be human. We must oppose anyone who says otherwise” [@robotmats]
Humans are “social animals”, and need each other’s company to stay sane and healthy. Attending a music, sports, dance or other event, or hanging out with friends in a pub lifts the spirit, relaxes, and makes people happy. At the same time the immune system is stimulated by exposure to other peoples’ germs, bacteria and viruses.
Opening pubs shows: socialising does not result in deaths
Meetings to worship together with others from your church, mosque, synagogue, temple, your sangha or your ‘tribe’ is especially powerful. It brings in the spirit of community, which has comforted and supported religious and spiritual groups throughout history. Some forms of worship include healing, many involve singing or chanting and worshipful prayer. “When two or three are gathered in my name, I am among them” is a phrase attributed to Jesus, which encapsulates the power which can be created when people focus their hearts and minds together. And there is also the socialising over a cuppa and sometimes shared meals which helps connecting and bonding with others.
In her book “The Power Of Eight” Lynne McTaggart shares an astonishing fact: “when people carry out intention for each other in small groups of eight, miraculous healings occur – virtually in an instant”. All of this supports our wellbeing and the immune system.
Mass gatherings, demonstrations, concerts and festivals are safe and help keep us healthy. ‘Black Lives Matter’ protests have not seen coronavirus cases surge in cities since the massive demonstrations began, a study says. The research, which was published by the National Bureau of Economic Research, found no evidence that coronavirus cases jumped in 315 US cities in the weeks following the first protests.
Now is the time to sing, dance, celebrate and party in good company, de-stress, forget any virus worries and revive the immune system.
The immune system thrivesin loving company of others.
“immune cells from high-lonely individuals show in vivo, under basal physiological conditions: 1.) decreased activity of the anti-inflammatory glucocorticoid transcription control pathway; 2.) increased activity of the pro-inflammatory NF-κB/Rel pathway. Results reveal a distinct ‘transcriptional fingerprint’ of experienced social isolation that includes genomic indications of immune activation, and a reciprocal shift in the activity of pro- and anti-inflammatory transcription control pathways that shape global gene expression in the human immune system.” [Study “Social regulation of gene expression in human leukocytes“]
In short: loneliness breeds inflammation and disease.
A ‘New Scientist’ article: How to hug people in a coronavirus-stricken world, indicates, that the health benefit of hugging is greater than the covid-19 risk. “Tiffany Field at the University of Miami in Florida and her colleagues surveyed 260 adults and found that those reporting touch deprivation scored higher on scales measuring anxiety, depression, fatigue, sleep issues and post-traumatic stress. 60 per cent of people in the US reported feeling touch-deprived during the first month of lockdown, suggests a new study, even though only a fifth of those surveyed lived alone. A separate study of more than 1000 US adults found that those who frequently hugged, kissed or met up with friends and family in lockdown were 26 per cent less likely to report symptoms of depression and 28 per cent less likely to report loneliness… Regular video chats didn’t show the same benefits.”
Alternative meme, based on compassion, health and human needs
Hugging and virus transmission: Logically, a good hug is less likely to transmit viruses than a face to face chat, as both huggers involved breathe into the space behind each other over their shoulders, putting hands on the backs of the other person; this makes it nearly impossible for a virus to get transmitted. Speaking face to face does not increase oxytocin, which we need to be happy. After the lockdown people are craving for hugs and social contacts and tired of feeling miserable.
Human contact, togetherness and touch promotes health
“We saw stronger mental health benefits from types of contact that involved touch, which aligns well with the benefits we know come from close touching, like decreased heart rate, higher levels of oxytocin and lower levels of cortisol,” Molly Rosenberg, Indiana School of Public Health in Bloomington.
Even before Covid-19 there was a concern about the decrease of touch in society. So the BBC launched a new global study called ‘The Touch Test’, which took place mostly before the UK was in lockdown: ‘Why I’m not alone in missing hugs during the pandemic‘, including stories like “It’s more than six months now since I’ve hugged my parents or my friends”. On 5th October, a series of programmes “Anatomy of Touch” will start on BBC Radio 4.
Human touch is more important than we may realise
Here is another article from the New Scientist, showing why your brain needs touch to make you human. Being touchy-feely isn’t just nice – it caresses build social worlds from families to sports teams and may even give us our sense of self
Hugging strengthens the immune system Hugs increase levels of oxytocin and reduce blood pressure. The gentle pressure on the sternum and the emotional charge this creates activates the Solar Plexus Chakra. This stimulates the thymus gland, which regulates and balances the body’s production of white blood cells, which keep you healthy and disease free. Hugs can instantly boost oxytocin levels, which heal feelings of loneliness, isolation, and anger.
Holding a hug for an extended time lifts one’s serotonin levels, elevating mood and creating happiness. Hugging boosts self-esteem and relaxes muscles. Hugs release tension in the body and can take away pain Hugs balance out the nervous system Hugs educate us how love flows both ways. Hugs are so much like meditation and laughter. They teach us to let go and be present in the moment. They encourage us to flow with the energy of life. Hugs get you out of your circular thinking patterns and connect you with your heart and your feelings and your breath. [from 10 Reasons Why You Need at Least 8 Hugs a Day]
Touching and being in close contact with others keeps us happy and healthy
The importance of human touch: “All human primates are wired for touch, whether we like or not,”says Francis McGlone, a professor of neuroscience at Liverpool John Moores University. “‘Skin hunger’ is a layman’s term for what, in research, is known as ‘affection deprivation’, which is associated with a range of psychological and even physical health detriments,” adds Kory Floyd, a professor of communication at the University of Arizona who has written extensively on how a dearth of tactile affection can be linked to stress, depression, loneliness and anxiety. McGlone’s area of interest lies in a different nerve altogether – the C-tactile afferent. This touch-hungry nerve fibre responds specifically to gentle stroking and, unlike its counterpart, does not send this information to the brain straight away – it takes several seconds to arrive. “That nerve clearly evolved differently,” says McGlone. “The nerve fibre fires up areas of the brain that connect to reward. There’s a release of oxytocin, a hormone that plays a fundamental role in our social behaviour. It has an effect on our dopamine levels, which is the brain’s reward system; it impacts on the release of serotonin, which is connected to our happiness and wellbeing; it has an impact on our stress system; and it helps lower our heart rate.” “The effects of touch are physiological, bioelectrical and biochemical,” agrees Tiffany Field, founder of the Touch Research Institute at Miami Medical School. “Moving the skin (as, for example, in hugging, massaging and exercise) stimulates pressure receptors which are transmitted to the vagus nerve, the largest cranial nerve that has many branches in the body. Increased vagal activity calms the nervous system (e.g. slows heart rate and leads to EEG patterns that accompany relaxation). It also reduces cortisol – the culprit stress hormone – that then saves natural killer cells that kill viral, bacterial and cancer cells.” https://www.independent.co.uk/life-style/touch-skin-hunger-hugs-coronavirus-lockdown-isolation-ctactile-afferent-nerve-a9501676.html
When two cousins and best friends were hugging each other for the first time after lockdown, they started sobbing from the bottom of their hearts. This shows, how much trauma the social distancing has created in us, and how much we NEED hugs. All of us are traumatised – but adults usually don’t show or admit it.

The first study to “demonstrate the widespread immune effects of singing, in particular its effects on cytokines showed a significant decrease in cortisol and neuropeptide levels accompanied by an acute increase in cytokine and receptor activity. …this demonstrates that improvements in mood were associated with lower levels of pro-inflammatory response” “there was evidence that greater improvements in mood as a result of singing were associated with lower pro-inflammatory response… independent of stress levels. … those with the lowest levels of mental wellbeing and highest levels of depression experienced the greatest short-term improvement in mood across the singing session, and that these larger mood changes were associated with lower levels of inflammation.“ [from ecancer.org/en/journal/article/631]
Singing versus talking to a petridish: there’s really not much difference. See the whole perti dish experiment in the ‘Face Masks’ chapter
The experiment on the left shows, that singing does NOT spread bacteria more than talking into a petri dish. However: the health benefits of singing are much higher than those of talking. WHY are we not allowed to sing? And there is not much difference between with, and without mask.
The above experiment also proves the old advice: “catch it & bin it”. A handkerchief or coughing / sneezing into one’s ellbow should be sufficient.
Below is an example, which should really be in the comedy section: musicians wearing masks INCLUDING covering their instruments
Nitric oxide shows promise as antiviral treatment: “An in vitro study finds that nitric oxide, NO, may suppress SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19. The researchers suggest that inhaled nitric oxide may be an effective treatment for the disease. Nitric oxide is a cell signaling molecule produced naturally by the body with anti-inflammatory effects and is a vasodilator, meaning it dilates blood vessels to increase blood flow. It also has antiviral properties and is is effective against the herpes virus, coxsackievirus, and hantavirus. It also inhibits the replication of SARS-CoV.” “A small clinical study suggests that inhaled nitric oxide at low concentrations not only works as a vasodilator for SARS patients — improving oxygenation of their blood — but also as an antiviral agent.” “The scientists were also able to show that nitric oxide inhibited a key enzyme called a protease that the virus needs to make copies of itself.”
PubMed.gov publihed a study in 2002: “Humming greatly increases nasal nitric oxide” – Abstract: “The paranasal sinuses are major producers of nitric oxide (NO). We hypothesized that oscillating airflow produced by humming would enhance sinus ventilation and thereby increase nasal NO levels. Ten healthy subjects took part in the study. Nasal NO was measured with a chemiluminescence technique during humming and quiet single-breath exhalations at a fixed flow rate. NO increased 15-fold during humming compared with quiet exhalation. In a two-compartment model of the nose and sinus, oscillating airflow caused a dramatic increase in gas exchange between the cavities…”
“Since the time of the Indian rishis the sound of humming has been acknowledged as the fundamental vibration of our divine self.”
The Humming Effect Book – The World’s First Guide to the Practice of Conscious Humming. “It is a powerful non-pharmaceutical prescription for self-healingthat has only positive side effects, such as harmony, health, and happiness.” “The Goldmans have superbly, practically, and with great simplicity expanded upon this truth and demonstrated the potency of the hum to heal at all levels of our being. The Humming Effect, with its audio tracks, is an essential text in extending the range of what the human voice can achieve in self-empowered wellness.”
The media have been full with disease scares, and not much about health
There is so much more to sunshine than producing vitamin D. Sunshine literally nourishes us and is essentila to human health. And yes: UV light kills viruses and disinfects naturally. Ari Whitten gives a lecture on Using Light, Circadian Rhythm, sleep and Hormesis to Optimize Immune Function.
Science proves the sun’s UV light is antiviral
A good night’s sleep is a backbone for health Here tips from 8 Reasons Why You’re Not Sleeping Well: • No workout within three hours of your own bedtime. • Limit alcohol in the evening: it interferes with your REM sleep cycle • Stay cool for the most refreshing sleep • Avoid worries or stress; write down your worries before bedtime, along with a few things you are grateful for. Try meditating. • No coffeine from late afternoon: the half-life of caffeine is 3-5 hours. • Silence! Try using a white-noise machine to block out the sound. • Darkness! Light impairs your sleep quality – sleeping with lights on results in a 50% melatonin reduction. No electronics at least an hour before bedtime. • No late heavy meal sending your digestive system into overdrive
Melatonin (produced in darkness) is essential for health
Sleep deprivation can trigger abnormal action of astrocytes, cells involved in brain cleansing and regeneration
When astrocytes are functioning abnormally, they can eat and destroy healthy brain synapses, increasing your risk of Alzheimer’s and other neurodegenerative diseases
A consistent sleep schedule is important for keeping your brain healthy and avoiding other chronic health problems
The exact amount of sleep you need depends on your age, overall health and activity levels, but for adults, seven to nine hours is a good general rule
In our western “modern” lives we get too littlesun light exposure at day time – and too much artificial light before going to bed, which can derail the human circadian rhythm.
A circadian rhythm is a natural, internal process that regulates the sleep-wake cycle and repeats roughly every 24 hours. Abnormal circadian rhythm in humans is known as circadian rhythm disorder and can lead to various diseases.
Covid-19 patients using aspirin were 43% less likely to be admitted to the ICU They were also 44% less likely to need ventilators due to their heart medication Daily aspirin use also reduced the risk of death by 47% Researchers say aspirin could be the first over-the counter drug for Covid-19 [MailOnline, 26 October 2020
The SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19) virus can cause blood platelets to clump, leading to potential blood clots that damage organs.
Aspirin is known to thin the blood, helping to prevent blood clots in people who have cardiovascular disease.
A new study shows that people hospitalized with COVID-19 benefitted from taking low-dose aspirin.
Low-dose (81 mg) aspirin has been used as a therapy to decrease the risk of heart attacks and strokes caused by blood clots in people who have cardiovascular disease (CVD) [source] Whether low-dose aspirin is helpful or harmful depends on who you are. If you are at risk of cardiovascular disease, it could be beneficial; but if you are at risk of ulcers and bleeding in your gastrointestinal tract, it could be harmful.
B vitamins may play an important role in COVID-19 prevention and treatment, according to two recent papers
Based on B vitamins’ effects on your immune system, immune-competence and red blood cells (which help fight infection), supplementation may be a useful adjunct to other prevention and treatment strategies
Vitamin B assists in proper activation of both the innate and adaptive immune responses, reduces pro-inflammatory cytokine levels, improves respiratory function, maintains endothelial integrity, prevents hypercoagulability and can reduce the length of stay in hospital.
Niacin (vitamin B3) appears particularly important. According to a recent paper, there appears to be a causative link between low niacin status and SARS-CoV-2 infection
SARS-CoV-2’s ability to invade your body is dependent on calcium signaling, which in turn is dependent on the presence of NAADP, which is formed from niacin. NAADP-dependent calcium signaling is responsible both for the inhibition of viral entry into cells and driving the virus out of already infected cells
Vitamin B1 (thiamine) — Thiamine improves immune system function, protects cardiovascular health, inhibits inflammation and aids in healthy antibody responses. Vitamin B2 (riboflavin) — Riboflavin in combination with ultraviolet light has been shown to decrease the infectious titer of SARS-CoV-2 below the detectable limit Vitamin B3 (niacin/nicotinamide) — Niacin is a building block of NAD and NADP, which are vital when combating inflammation. “the downstream inflammatory propagation of ensuing severe acute respiratory virus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection is entirely prohibited or reversed upstream out the body to expeditiously restore health with well-tolerated dynamic supplementation of sufficient NA (i.e., ~1-3 grams per day).” Vitamin B5 (pantothenic acid) — Vitamin B5 aids in wound healing and reduces inflammation. Vitamin B6 (pyridoxal 5′-phosphate/pyridoxine) — Pyridoxal 5′-phosphate (PLP), the active form of vitamin B6, is a cofactor in several inflammatory pathways. Vitamin B9 (folate/folic acid) — Folate, the natural form of B9 found in food, is required for the synthesis of DNA and protein in your adaptive immune response. Vitamin B12 (cobalamin) — B12 is required for healthy synthesis of red blood cells and DNA. A deficiency in B12 increases inflammation and oxidative stress by raising homocysteine levels. B12 deficiency is also associated with certain respiratory disorders. Advancing age can diminish your body’s ability to absorb B12 from food
“A recent study showed that methylcobalamin supplements have the potential to reduce COVID-19-related organ damage and symptoms. A clinical study conducted in Singapore showed that COVID-19 patients who were given vitamin B12 supplements (500 μg), vitamin D (1000 IU) and magnesium had reduced COVID-19 symptom severity and supplements significantly reduced the need for oxygen and intensive care support.”
Niacin Modulates the Bradykinin Storm COVID-19 also triggers bradykinin storms. Bradykinin is a chemical that helps regulate your blood pressure and is controlled by your renin-angiotensin system (RAS). The bradykinin hypothesis provides a model that helps explain some of the more unusual symptoms of COVID-19, including its bizarre effects on your cardiovascular system [see chapter ‘Covid Long Haulers‘ above]
As a “health restorative therapy” for those diagnosed with SARS-CoV-2, they recommend starting with a dose of 500 milligrams of immediate-release niacin, two to three times a day, ideally within the first 48 hours of symptom onset. As your flush response lessens, increase your dose to 1,000 mg, two to three times a day.23

On 4th of March 2020, the Chinese Journal of Infectious Disease, hosted by the Medical Association of Shanghai, published “The expertise consensus regarding the total treatment of coronavirus in Shanghai 2019”. This document is of extraordinary importance, as it concentrates the Chinese experience in combating the virus: Antiviral treatment of light and ordinary patients: “Heparin anticoagulation and high-dose vitamin C are recommended… Vitamin C is administered at a dose of 50 to 100 mg / kg body weight per day… In the event of a “cytokine storm”, intermittent short veno-venuous hemofiltration (ISVVH) is recommended.” Treatment for severe and critically ill patients: “6. Prevention and treatment of cytokine storm: It is recommended to use large doses of vitamin C and unfractionated heparin. Large doses of vitamin C are injected intravenously at a dose of 100 to 200 mg / kg per day.”
“VITAMIN C DOSING: How much vitamin C should I take?“ Your optimal dose of vitamin C depends on one thing: you. Are you healthy? Stressed? Sick? In sickness it was observed by Robert F. Cathcart, III, MD, that, “The amount of oral ascorbic acid (vitamin C) tolerated by a patient without producing diarrhea (loose bowels) increases somewhat proportionately to the stress or toxicity of his disease” and “[s]tressful conditions of any kind greatly increase utilization of vitamin C.” In other words, the sicker or more stressed you are, the more vitamin C you will “hold” before getting to saturation (bowel tolerance). Bowel tolerance is indicated by gas, a rumbling stomach, or slightly loose stool. If you take way too much C, very loose stool will result, but this goes away once dosages are reduced. When bowel tolerance is reached, this is a sign to back off the extra C. We continue to take C, but we take less and less often. It may take days to resolve illness (it depends how sick we are) but when healthy, the body needs less and “holds” less C. “
Orthomolecular.org reports on 16 August: “These studies show very promising results including statistically significant reduction in mortality and inflammation of Covid-19 patients treated with HDIVC [High Dose IntraVenous Vitamin C], with no significant side effect. But no major medical journals have agreed to publish the papers”. “…12 qualified patients (18 years or older), 6 critically ill and 6 severely ill patients, were identified and included in the final analysis. C reactive protein, lymphocyte count and CD4+ T cell counts returned to normal on Day 3. Similar trend of improvement in blood oxygenation levels (PaO2/FiO2) and SOFA (an organ failure measurement) score was also observed, after HDIVC … there were no deaths in HDIVC treated Covid-19 patients in Shanghai.” “An NIH document (updated in February 2020) clearly states that HDIVC is safe even at very high doses” “The FDA even allows “compassionate drug use” which stipulates the use of new and unapproved drug to treat seriously ill patient when no other treatments are available [11].”
The NHS and NICE only mention vitamin C use for treating scurvy, and declare: “Claims that vitamin C ameliorates colds or promotes wound healing have not been proven.” Wikipedia states “Vitamin C is a water-soluble vitamin,[22] … exhibits remarkably low acute toxicity.[5] More than two to three grams may cause indigestion, particularly when taken on an empty stomach.”
Scheme showing no improvement unless really high doses of vitamin C are taken. Disease symptom curves indicate very little effect on acute symptoms until doses of 80-90% of bowel tolerance are reached. Perhaps it is only near tolerance doses that the ascorbate is pushed into the primary sites of the disease.
‘Public Health’ should promote the use of Vitamin Cas a home remedy to prevent and treat inflammationbefore using NHS services, recommending “titrating to bowel tolerance”.
Only when enough vitamin C is made available to the body, dramatic improvement occurs.
There is evidence that vitamin C and quercetin co-administration exerts a synergistic antiviral action due to overlapping antiviral and immunomodulatory properties and the capacity of ascorbate to recycle quercetin, increasing its efficacy:
Vitamin C and quercetin have synergistic effects, useful in the prevention and early at-home treatment of COVID-19. Both are part of the MATH+ protocol developed by the Front Line COVID-19 Critical Care Working Group (FLCCC)
For COVID-19 prophylaxis, the FLCCC recommends vitamin C, quercetin, zinc, melatonin and vitamin D3
The in-hospital MATH+ protocol calls for intravenous methylprednisone, high-dose ascorbic acid (vitamin C), thiamine and heparin. Optional additions include melatonin, zinc, vitamin D3, atorvastatin, famotidine and magnesium
Starting aggressive treatment as early as possible is crucial
“…large doses of vitamin C could also cure other viral diseases such as meningitis, hepatitis, measles, mumps, pneumonia, shingles and even the poisonous bite of a rattlesnake. [2-4] Since that time other researchers have reported that there is no viral disease that high-dose IVC cannot successfully treat.“ “Klenner did not win a popularity contest with his colleagues. He wrote in frustration that “Some physicians would stand by and see their patient die rather than use ascorbic acid because in their finite minds it exists only as a vitamin.” “…doctors who use IVC in North America are being harassed by authorities. In some case, being told that if they persist they will lose their license to practice medicine.” [source]
22 Feb 2021: A Spanish study found giving supplemental vitamin D3 (calcifediol) to hospitalized patients with PCR-confirmed COVID-19 — in addition to standard care — reduced ICU admissions by 82% and mortality by 64% You need 244% more oral vitamin D if you’re not also taking magnesium and vitamin K2.43 [source]
A randomized clinical study found giving hospitalized COVID-19 patients calcifediol (a vitamin D3 analog) in addition to standard care reduced intensive care unit admissions from 50% to 2%. None of those given calcifediol died, and all were discharged without complications
Vitamin D lowers viral replication, boosts your overall immune function by modulating both innate and adaptive immune responses, reduces respiratory distress, improves overall lung function and helps produce surfactants in your lungs that aid in fluid clearance
Vitamin D also lowers your risk of comorbidities associated with poor COVID-19 prognosis, including obesity, Type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure and heart disease [source]
An August 2020 study found patients who had a vitamin D level below 12 ng/mL (30 nmol/L) had a 6.12 times higher risk of severe disease requiring invasive mechanical ventilation, and a 14.7 times higher risk of death compared to those with a vitamin D level above 12 ng/mL [source]
“An adult will need to take 4,000 IU/day of vitamin D3 for three months to reliably achieve a 75 nmol/L level. Persons of colour may need twice as much.” “And since vitamin D is fat-soluble and its level in the body rises slowly, for those with a deficiency, taking an initial dose of 5-fold the normal dose (20,000 IU/day) for two weeks can help to raise the level up to an adequate level to lower infection risk.” “Government recommendations for vitamin D intake — 400 IU/day for the UK and 600 IU/day for the USA (800 IU for >70 years) and the EU — are based primarily on bone health. This is woefully inadequate in the pandemic context.” [source]
Vitamin D biochemistry, RAS and ARDS – summary of findings in this section:
Chronic Vitamin D deficiency induces lung fibrosis through activation of the RAS.
Vitamin D deficiency contributes directly to the acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS).
Low Vitamin D Status Occurs in 90% of Patients with ARDS and Is Associated with Longer Duration of Mechanical Ventilation.
Vitamin D prevents experimental lung fibrosis and predicts survival in patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis.
Vitamin D alleviates lipopolysaccharide‑induced acute lung injury via regulation of the renin‑angiotensin system.
VDR Attenuates Acute Lung Injury by Blocking Ang-2-Tie-2 Pathway and Renin-Angiotensin System.
1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 suppresses renin gene transcription by blocking the activity of the cyclic AMP response element in the renin gene promoter.
Vitamin D supplementation is safe and protects against respiratory tract infection.
Studies in HIV patients show Vitamin D induces anti-inflammatory responses through direct effects on T-cells. Vitamin D promotes an anti-inflammatory response by inhibiting the maturation of dendritic cells, downregulating antigen presenting molecules (MHC-class II), costimulatory molecules (e.g., CD40, CD80, and CD86), and pro-inflammatory cytokines (e.g., IL-12 and IL-23); Simultaneously, Vitamin D enhances anti-inflammatory cytokine (IL-10) and T-cell inhibitory molecule (PD-1).
Chronic vitamin D deficiency induces lung fibrosis through activation of the renin-angiotensin system
Vitamin D is causal in reducing development of all cancers, including colorectal cancer.
Mortality rates for colorectal cancer have been shown to correlate with latitude.
Vitamin D insufficiency/deficiency plays a causative role in the prevalence of Crohn’s Disease.
People living near the equator are at low risk of developing inflammatory bowel disease, however, upon migration to developed countries in temperate climates, the risk of IBD increases.
Regular doses of vitamin D (VTD)—about 2000 IU/d—early in life have been shown to reduce the risk of developing type 1 diabetes (up to an 80% reduction projected over the next 30 years)
Vitamin D is implicated in procognitive and neuroprotective functions, including the reduction of Alzheimer’s disease hallmarks

HealthTruth.info comment: there is no patent on D3, so no profit; all the profit is in the flu vaccines and covid vaccines.
WARNING: in very rare cases of hypercalcemia (too much calcium in the blood), vitamin D3 should NOT be taken. In March 2021 a woman, B., contacted HealthTruth.info and shared her story: “We spoke about Vitamin D and I’ve just written a few words on my problems with it here, I realise it is probably very rare. I had lots of bloods taken at that time and no other seemed to be of concern. 1) after blood test Vit D on lowest limit of lower level, advised to take a minimum dose in 2016/2017 apx 1000iu per day or 7000 a week. Symptoms had been tiredness, aching and not enough energy in muscles when at Gym, walking was fine. 2) after apx 4 weeks aching got worse , after 6 weeks started to feel really tired bones aching, felt sick, then weeing more, drinking more, for about 3 days as well as previous noticed my vision blurred by afternoon and difficulty focusing, also think I may have had heart palpitations . Final evening started feeling really unwell, thirsty , going to toilet, sweating, all bones ached, by late evening in agony, literally crawled in to bed laid there in agony even my toe bones ached all bones ached. Laid in bed all evening in agony couldn’t face getting to hospital sitting in waiting room as everything just hurt too much so just lay there all night. Next morning felt better than I had and stopped taking any supplements incl vitamin D took it easy, noticed after stopping Vitamin D, I was feeling better each day & tried to get the doctors to find out if too much vitamin D took blood but vit D still low , I realise they probably should have taken a calcium blood check as later found out the symptoms were hypercalcemia. For some, taking a vitamin D supplement over an extended period of time can cause the blood calcium level to rise. If calcium in the blood exceeds a normal level, hypercalcemia may develop. 3) Many people prescribing Vitamin D say cant take too much, but clearly there are a few like me that it doesnt agree with. Long term I’ve noticed my toes still ache regularly, especially after a long walk. Only other medical problems at the time was I will have been menopausal & stressed. Happy for you to let people be aware of this, preferably not name me, but do mention its rare as I dont want to panic anyone when everyone is being told to take vitamin D. I only know of one elderly person in a nursing home who had similar problems, but if anyone feels worse after taking Vitamin D please stop & review.”
“This herbal tea gives results in seven days,” said Madagascar’s President Andry Rajoelina in April. ‘Covid Organics’ is a herbal remedy (also known as Tambavy CVO), produced from artemisia, a plant with proven efficacy against malaria, and other indigenous herbs, according to the Malagasy Institute of Applied Research, which developed the beverage.
The World Health Organisation (WHO) advised people against using untested remedies for COVID-19. “Even if therapies are derived from traditional practice and natural, establishing their efficacy and safety through rigorous clinical trials is critical.”
In Germany Artemisia annua plant extract was tested (also known as sweet wormwood). Researchers found that the leaves of Artemisia extract showed anti-viral activity after being extracted with pure ethanol or distilled water. The anti-viral activity increased considerably when the ethanol extract was combined with coffee.
Researchers found that areas with high levels of selenium were more likely to recover from the virus. In the city of Enshi in Hubei Province, which has the highest selenium intake in China, the cure rate (percentage of Covid-19 patients declared ‘cured’) was almost three-times higher than the average for all the other cities in Hubei Province. By contrast, in Heilongjiang Province, where selenium intake is among the lowest in the world, the death rate from Covid-19 was almost five-times as high as the average of all the other provinces outside of Hubei. “Selenium appears relevant to a number of evolutionarily distinct viruses, via potential immunomodulatory effects that are fully consistent with the many essential roles of selenium in the immune system.“
Here are some known health benefits of selenium: Antioxidant and Anti-Inflammatory Effects Improved Thyroid Health Cancer Prevention Heart Health Fertility Support Help Treating Asthma Foods rich in selenium: Brazil nuts, Salmon, Tuna, Turkey, Cottage cheese, Chicken, Mushrooms, Halibut, Eggs, Navy beans, Sardines, Sunflower seeds, Grass-fed beef, Oats
Treating covid-19 successfully with zinc and hydroxychloroquine:
Zincinhibits RNA polymerase activity of coronaviruses and thus blocks virus replication.Hydroxychloroquine and quercetin support the cellular absorption of zinc and have additional anti-viral properties.
“The mortality rate from COVID-19 in countries that allow access to HCQ is only one-tenth the mortality rate in countries where there is interference with this medication, such as the United States,” the Association of American Physicians & Surgeons (AAPS) general counsel Andrew Schlafly said, citing easier access to the drug in Philippines, Poland, Israel, Turkey, and even Venezuela.

Turkey’s COVID-19 Early Hydroxychloroquine Treatment Strategy “As soon as a patient has symptoms, they are treated with hydroxychloroquine tablets and/or favipiravir at home. Follow-up calls quickly spot if the symptoms worsen, and then they will be admitted to hospital.” The Turkish approach is at odds with most countries, such as the UK, where symptomatic patients are asked to stay home, wait, until the symptoms essentially become unbearable, and then serious complications and hospitalisation become very likely. [Sky News written reporting is remarkable, covering how early outpatient treatment is implemented in Turkey. But there is not a word in their TV program about it]
Jacques Pollini, PhD: “I challenge anybody reading these lines to show me the results of a randomized trial that tested the HCQ/AZI or HCQ/AZI/Zn on COVID patients in the early stage of the disease, that is, before hospitalization.” in COVID-19 Treatments: Please, Let’s Have a Bit of Common Sense!
WARNING: according to Dr. Wodarg, people with ancestors from malaria countries (Africa) may have a glucose-6-dehydrogenase (G6PD) deficiency, a hereditary trait particularly common among ethnic groups living in or coming from areas with malaria. One of the substances dangerous in all forms of this enzyme deficiency is is the anti-malarial drug hydroxychloroquine (HCQ). Little attention is paid to this serious side effect in HCQ studies.
N-acetylcysteine (NAC) has a long history of use as a first-aid remedy for acetaminophen poisoning. Compelling research suggests it may also be useful against COVID-19
By raising glutathione, NAC combats oxidative stress, which is a main cause of the cytokine storm associated with COVID-19. NAC also inhibits hypercoagulation and breaks up blood clots, which is another complication seen in some COVID-19 cases
NAC helps loosen thick mucus in the lungs and improves a variety of lung-related problems, including pneumonia and acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), both of which are common characteristics of COVID-19
NAC was found to improve immune function and reduce the severity of influenza infections.
Aside from increasing glutathione, NAC may also prevent or improve COVID-19 infection by improving T cell response and modulating inflammation
At present, seven studies involving NAC for COVID-19 are listed on Clinicaltrials.gov.5 The number needed to treat (NNT) in the study8 cited by Debé is 0.5, which means for every two people treated with NAC, one will be protected against symptomatic influenza. That’s significantly better than influenza vaccines, which have an NNV (number needed to vaccinate) of 71,9 meaning 71 people must be vaccinated to prevent a single case of confirmed influenza. It’s even better than vitamin D, which has an NNT of 33.10 With COVID-19 treatment as a new indication, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration is now suddenly cracking down on NAC, claiming it is excluded from the definition of a dietary supplement, as it was approved as a new drug in 1985.2 As such, NAC cannot be marketed as a supplement.

June 30, 2020, “Zelenko and two co-authors published a study,10 currently in preprint, which found treating COVID-19 patients who had confirmed positive test results “as early as possible after symptom onset” with zinc, low-dose hydroxychloroquine and azithromycin “was associated with significantly less hospitalizations and five times less all-cause deaths.” Hydroxychloroquine has been used safely for 65 years in many millions of patients.”
The Swiss Policy Research recommends the following Covid-19 treatment (updated 4 September): Prophylaxis: Zinc (50mg to 100mg per day) Quercetin (500mg to 1000mg per day) Bromhexine (25mg to 50mg per day) Vitamins C (1000mg) and D (2000 u/d)
Early treatment: Zinc (75mg to 150mg per day) Quercetin (500mg to 1500mg per day) Bromhexine (50mg to 75mg per day) Vitamins C (1000mg) and D (4000 u/d)
Ancillary (prescription only): Hydroxychloroquine (400mg per day) High-dose vitamin D (1x 100,000 IU) Azithromycin (up to 500mg per day) Heparin (usual dosage) Note: Contraindications for HCQ (e.g. favism or heart disease) must be observed. Addendum: Other prescription drugs with first reported successes in the early medical treatment of Covid-19 are ivermectin (read more) and favipiravir (read more).
Professor Thomas Borody, from the Centre for Digestive Diseases in Sydney, Australia, claims in covexit.com in August:“It’s Easier than Treating the Flu“ COVID-19 is now curable with Ivermectin in combination with 2 other widely available generic drugs – Doxycycline and Zinc “it can treat and get rid, within 6 to 10 days, of the coronavirus” Why aren’t we treating every elderly person in every health care facility, in every aged care facility with this? “There is no drug company behind it. “There are no people who are lobbying government and giving donations for reelections.”

Budesonide is an anti-inflammatory corticosteroid. Inhaled with a nebulizer directly into the lungs, it prevents the cytokene storm triggered by covid-19. This is an easily deployable pre-hospital community-based treatment. “Thus far, 100% of my patients appear to be symptom free following a course of inhaled Budesonide therapy”. Budesonide has been studied and utilized for lung related inflammation for over 20 years. Taiwan, Japan and South Korea have used this treatment successfully, keeping covid-19 death numbers low. “Delayed treatment is not a valid health strategy” Richard P. Bartlett, MD, Texas [source]
Acupuncture could help coronavirus patients, study says By Hannah Frishberg and Hannah Sparks, August 17, 2020 The traditional Chinese practice influenced rodents’ ability to cope with a cytokine storm. In the new study, researchers found that mice experiencing a cytokine storm had a 40% greater chance of survival when treated with electroacupuncture. As well, acupuncture worked well as a preventative practice: Mice treated with acupuncture before developing a cytokine storm experienced lower levels of inflammation and their survival rate increased from 20 to 80%. “It’s always nice when Western studies back up the ancient healing medical system of acupuncture and traditional Chinese medicine… Acupuncture is fantastic at triggering the body’s innate healing abilities, helping with inflammation and calming the nervous system. I have seen great results at my practice, treating patients with post-COVID-19 symptoms,” said acupuncturist Sara Reznikoff
Homeopaths have trialed remedies for covid-19 with highly encouraging results. Phosphorous and Spigelia. “Homeopathy is hugely successful during epidemics, with a lower mortality rate and people getting better much more quickly,” says Sherr. “So far, the results with COVID-19 have been amazing.” Of the 204 cases, 64 percent reported their symptoms as “very much better” after homeopathy, 28 percent were “much better.” The other seven percent were either somewhat better or unchanged. None worsened. The main remedies used in stage 1 cases were Aconite, Phosphorus, and Bryonia. The stage 2 cases had more intense and deeper symptoms and reduced vitality. The contrast between the attitude of homeopaths like Sherr and the tales of helplessness and despair from medical doctors and nurses watching patients die alone on ventilators in traditional hospital ICUs, separated from their loved ones, couldn’t be starker.
The Scientist Magazine reports on the 7th February 2020: “The Indian government’s Ministry of AYUSH, which promotes alternative medicine systems in the country, released a health advisory on January 29 that advocates the use of homeopathy and traditional remedies, such as Indian systems of medicine, to ward off infections of the newly circulating 2019-nCoV coronavirus. This includes the use of a homeopathic preparation called Arsenicum album 30C and two drops of sesame oil in each nostril each morning for prevention, and Unani medicines (treatments based on the teachings of Hippocrates and Galen) to mitigate symptoms of coronavirus infection.“
New Coronavirus: All Eyes On India specifies another homeopathic treatment: “It has recommended one dose of Arsenicum album 30, daily in empty stomach for three days. The dose should be repeated after one month by following the same schedule in case Coronavirus infections prevail in the community.”
As homeopathy usually has no side effects, the only criticism could be that using homeopathy might prevent people from getting a “proper” treatment. As health officials keep claiming “there is no treatment for coronavirus”, this risk is clearly not existant.
Can Chinese Medicine Be Used for Prevention of Corona Virus Disease? A Review of Historical Classics, Research Evidence and Current Prevention Programs from 17 Februry states: “The infection rate of H1N1 influenza in the CM group was significantly lower than the non-CM group.” “The most frequently used herbs included Radix astragali (Huangqi), Radix glycyrrhizae (Gancao), Radix saposhnikoviae (Fangfeng), Rhizoma Atractylodis Macrocephalae (Baizhu), Lonicerae Japonicae Flos (Jinyinhua), and Fructus forsythia (Lianqiao).“ Conclusions: Based on historical records and human evidence of SARS and H1N1 influenza prevention, Chinese herbal formula could be an alternative approach for prevention of COVID-19 in high-risk population.”
Research suggests seaweed used in traditional Chinese medicine could protect against COVID-19: “a carbohydrate found in the seaweed Ecklonia kurome blocks the activity of an enzyme that is essential for the replication of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) – the agent that causes coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19).” The seaweed is called “Kun Bu” in China. The researchers found that polysaccharide 375 completely blocked the enzyme activity of 3CLpro. Furthermore, the homogeneous polysaccharide 37502 bound to 3CLpro and potently disrupted spike – ACE2 binding. Recently, two components of the traditional Chinese herbal medicine Shuanghuanglian were shown to inhibit 3CLpro in SARS-CoV-2 and to exhibit potent antiviral activities in vitro.
It is clear from the chapters above: we have several treatment options to safely treat coronavirus.
“An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure“ People withpre-existing conditions need to look after their health. Here are several studies showing what you can do if you have any of the following pre-existing conditions:
WARNING: When you’ve been on a course of anti-biotics, these anti-biotics cannot distinguish between good and bad bacteria and zaps them all. It can take up to 6 months for the good bacteria to re-populate the gut; some unlucky people can take even longer. Do you use anti-bacterial wipes? Anti-bacterial washing up liquid, anti-bacterial cleaning sprays in your house, if you do, it is inevitable that you will be ingesting some of the antibacterial agents and they will be destroying the good bacteria in your gut. [from Anti-bacterials & Modern Life]
While SARS-CoV-2 is a rampant virus that can cause severe problems in vulnerable individuals, the real pandemic — the underlying cause that makes people susceptible to complications from the infection in the first place — is poor metabolic health
Aside from old age, obesity has been identified as one of the primary risk factors for being hospitalized with COVID-19 — doubling the risk of hospitalization in patients under the age of 60 in one study
One hypothesis for why obesity is worsening COVID-19 has to do with the fact that obesity causes chronic inflammation. Having more proinflammatory cytokines in circulation increases your risk of experiencing a cytokine storm
Insulin resistance is another top risk factor for COVID-19 that worsens outcomes and increases your risk of death
There are five primary parameters of metabolic health: waist circumference, insulin sensitivity, blood pressure, and triglyceride and HDL levels. Having three or more abnormal parameters is indicative of metabolic syndrome
Earthing, otherwise known as Grounding, is the act of reconnecting with the Earth’s natural electrical current. Unfortunately, modern living has mostly isolated us from our electrical connection with the Earth. Everything from wearing rubber soled shoes to the use of synthetic flooring materials, all block our ability to Earth. Everyone has the opportunity to reconnect and simply walk barefoot on the Earth outside, however, it’s not always easy to kick off your shoes and spend hours each day barefoot. “Western Civilization has been a steady march away from nature. One of these profound strides away from earth’s healing nature occurred in the 1950’s and ‘60’s when we began wearing rubber soled shoes. In that move toward comfort and convenience we insulated ourselves from the single biggest anti-inflammatory we have – planet earth” – Dr Zach Bush, Triple Board certified physician. Making direct skin contact with the Earth’s surface provides the body with an essential source of natural antioxidants called free electrons. Earthing technology is the simplest solution to Earthing in the modern world, allowing one to reconnect from inside their home.
An easy way to ground your bed is putting a metal strip / wire / net under the bedsheet and connect that with the “earth” socket.
10 Ways to Take Care of You During 2020: move your body, eat healthy, clean your environment, practice meditation to calm yourself, take a break from the news, listen to music, work on your hobby, read a book, ground yourself in the earth – and seek support.
Vaping Links to COVID Risk: Covid-19 diagnosis was five times more likely among ever-users of e-cigarettes. And smokers are more likely to end up in the hospital with flu than nonsmokers.
Prophylaxis is better than treatment. Starting to heal underlying conditions with nutrition and life style changes helps prevent a cytokine storm of the immune system
Supplements thought to be useful in the prevention of coronavirus infection include: N-acetylcysteine (NAC), elderberry (shortens influenza duration by two to four days), Spirulina, beta-glucan, Glucosamine(upregulates mitochondrial antiviral-signaling protein (MAVS),Selenium, Zinc, lipoic acid, sulforaphane, resveratrol, vitamin D, Bifidobacterium bifidum strain probiotics and sporebiotics
Some basic remindres to get and stay healthy: • Drinking water for hydration, flushing toxins in the body • Fever is your immune system in action. Support it, don’t bring it down. • Stop taking pain killers – they shorten your life span • Exercise daily in nature. • Breathing exercises help to relax. Avoid any stress. • Cold Showers every day result in 30% less sickness days • Quit smoking& vaping for your lung’s health • Remove GMO foods (see info table below)! Go organic. • Avoid antibiotics • FEAR is enemy #1 in covid-19. Focus on LOVE. • Look after your gut – home of the immune system • “Earthing” or “Grounding” is connecting with the electromagnetic field of the earth, best barefoot
Many mass produced foods (especially in the US) include genetically modified ingredients. Statistic: Jeffrey Smith from The Institute for Responsible Technology (IRT)
In ‘Cellular Awakening’, chapter: ‘The Universal Cycles We Dance To‘, Barbara Wren writes that at the Spring Equinox the increased light leads to more photon activity and a change in our energy, and the reverse change happens at the autumn equinox; these turning points create a surge in energy and a detoxification of the cells, and this is why many people get colds or the flu around equinox. “Stagnation is an expression of disease” and “healing is about creating freedom of movement” she adds on page 65.

If ice is too much for you: start with having a cold shower after hot each day: ‘There was a really interesting study showing that if people had a normal shower and then for the last 30 seconds or so every morning, they switched it to cold. The people who were having the cold showers, they reduced their sickness days from work,’ a researcher told Dr Ronx. ‘It was 30% lower in sickness rate in those people, so that’s quite a big drop.’ ‘That cold part of the shower in the morning was initiating this stress response which was helping initiate some of these beneficial mechnicisms’ the researcher continued. [source: metro.co.uk 7 Jan 2021]
Many scientific studies have confirmed the Wim Hof method works – for example: Radboud University, The Netherlands (2014):
Aimed to test if the results from the first study on Wim could be reproduced with a larger group
Injected 12 Wim Hof Method practitioners with an endotoxin
Results showed that, like Wim, they were able to control their sympathetic nervous system and immune response
Anti-inflammatory mediators were ~200% higher, while pro-inflammatory mediators were ~50% lower
Potentially important implications for “conditions associated with excessive or persistent inflammation, especially autoimmune diseases.” (2014, Knox et. al.)
Testimonials: “For 12 years now I have had rheumatism. Thanks to the Wim Hof Method I have been able to halve the amount of anti-inflammatory drugs” “I have severe arthritis in my left hip. By implementing the Wim Hof Method in my daily life, I can deal with this without getting surgery. I’m almost 66 years old and by practicing the Wim Hof Method I feel much more alive”
“BECAUSE WE WEAR CLOTHES AND CONTROL THE TEMPERATURES AT HOME AND WORK, WE HAVE CHANGED THE STIMULATION ON OUR BODY, THUS THE OLD MECHANISMS RELATED TO SURVIVE AND FUNCTION. AS THESE DEEPER PHYSIOLOGICAL LAYERS ARE NOT STIMULATED ANYMORE WE HAVE BECOME ALIENATED FROM THEM, THUS OUR BODIES HAVE WEAKENED AND WE ARE NO LONGER IN TOUCH WITH THIS INNER POWER. THE INNER POWER IS A FORCE ACCUMULATED BY FULL AWAKENED PHYSIOLOGICAL PROCESSES. IT ALSO INFLUENCES THE VERY CORE OF OUR DNA” [Wim Hof]

Video 3 is all about learning to understand the power of the mind, and helping you take back control to live your ideal life.
The government needs to promote healthy eating and life style to support the immune system – this will also reduce many underlying causes of death (like obesity) Since over 70% of bodily immune cells are associated with your gut – eating the right food has never been more important. Here is some good nutritional advice for gut health & life style. These natural antibiotics do not destroy the biome like anti-biotics do:
We are convinced that the elucidation of immunomodulation by food will help promote good health.” “In this review, we describe the immunomodulating effects of various food components, including probiotics, prebiotics, polysaccharides, vitamins, minerals, fatty acids, peptides, amino acids and polyphenols. Some of these components enhance immune responses, leading to host defense against infection, whereas others inhibit immune responses, thus suppressing allergy and inflammation.“
9 foods helping you to keep your immune system strong Garlic: fights infections, has immune boosting properties Broccoli: Packed with vitamins A, C, and E as well as numerous antioxidants Yogurt: High in protein. Good source of vitamins B12, B2, and D. Contain probiotics needed for proper digestion, detoxification, and immune function. Red Bell Peppers: Ounce for ounce have 2x more vitamin C than citrus Ginger: Reduces inflammation which helps with inflammatory ailments and sore throats. Spinach: Rich in vitamin C, antioxidants, and beta carotene. Beta carotene is believed to help fight infections.
Almonds: High in vitamin E Green Tea: Contains EGCG which has been shown to enhance immune function Citrus: high in vitamin C which increases white blood cell production
“Let food be your medicine” [Hippocrates] Eating the healthy foods is the basis of your health, considering that 70% of the immune system is based in the gut. It is always best to buy whole fruit and vegetables and prepare the food at home. Cooking is more healthy than frying. Lots of raw food, some fermented, will stimulate the gut. If you can, buy organic, to avoid the agrochemicals and pollutants, especially glyphosate. Search the web – and take your pick.
Fasting boosts the immune system For millennia, fasting has been one of the anchoring rituals in a variety of spiritual denominations. It can help with inflammation, obesity, insulin resistance, visceral adiposity, and endothelial dysfunction and to Heal Autoimmune Disease– which is the problem why people die with coronavirus. Intermittent fasting has many other health benefits.
About 3/4 of the human immune system is based in the gut – a complex internal ecosystem, like a rain forest, also known as biome. Fermentation turns good food into superfood. Fermentation produces “good” bacteria called probiotics, which confer a wealth of benefits to intestinal flora when consumed, enhancing the health of your gut microbiome and boosting your immune system. It is recommended to reseed your inner ecosystem with prebiotic and probiotic-rich foods, like sauerkraut, kimchi & kefir.
So what happens when you take antibiotics or regularly use antibacterial lotions and soaps? You literally kill the good bacteria and the bad ones take over. This, in turn, disturbs the symbiosis (balance) of your microbiome which will lead to digestive issues and immune reactions. Studies have linked everything from autism to most chronic diseases to leaky gut syndrome and improper digestion.
Kefir is a unique cultured dairy product that is one of the most probiotic rich foods on the planet. Fermented milk products like kefir can help people with milk-related lactose intolerance. The Whey in Kefir, sometimes referred to as liquid gold, has long been known to have powerful detoxification qualities.
Next time you get sick, think twice about taking an antibiotic and drink kefir instead. A study out of University College Cork in Ireland compared Lactobacillus probiotic preparations […] The researchers discovered that probiotics worked as well as or even better than antibiotic therapy in not only eliminating the infectious agent, but in resolving symptoms! Consumption of fermented foods has been shown to kill several different types of cancerous tumors in animal studies. Kefir has strong anti-inflammatory properties and was found to have both positive effects on allergies and asthma. More: Kefir Nutritional Facts [from: “What is Kefir?“]
How to make kefir easy yourself (and boost your gut based immune system): buy organic milk + one small bottle of kefir. Add a cup full of kefir to the milk, shake, and keep it in a warm(ish) place. Shake again twice a day; after one or two days the milk has fermented into kefir. Keep refrigerated and use some of this kefir to start the next one.
the PubMed study “The effect of kefir consumption on human immune system: a cytokine study” confirms: “Bioactive peptides activate innate immunity by stimulating macrophages, increasing phagocytosis, augmenting NO and cytokine production and boosting the lumen levels of IgG and IgA+ B-lymphocytes.” “The results indicated that kefir use increased polarization of the immune response towards TH1 type and decreased TH2 type response and accordingly allergic response.”
1. Yogurt 2. Fermented Vegetables Kimchi with antiaging effects, raw sauerkraut and pickled cucumbers, cauliflower and even leafy greens like mustard and collard. 3. Kombucha, a tart, fizzy, fermented tea beverage. Kombucha’s antioxidant activity has been found to be 100 times higher than vitamin C and 25 times higher than vitamin E..[xvii] Kombucha’s high levels of vitamin C boost immunity, and its antioxidant power protects against cell damage, inflammatory diseases, suppressed immunity and tumors.[xviii] 4. Apple Cider Vinegar or ACV, attributed with antidiabetic and antioxidant effects that make it a useful ally in the fight against diabetes.[xxi]It’s recommended to start with no more than 2 tablespoons of ACV diluted with equal parts water, taken on an empty stomach immediately upon waking 5. Miso is a fermented soybean paste. miso does, in fact, have the ability to prevent radiation injury.[xxvii]Made by combining a mash of soybeans and grains with sea salt and koji (a mold starter), the mixture is fermented for three months to three years.

When you buy bread, choose FERMENTED bread. Souerdough is naturally fermented. “Lavain Bread” dough was naturally fermented for 36 hours before baking.
Shielding EMF Improves Autoimmune Disease Electrosmog at both an extremely low-frequency (ELF) or in the radio frequency (RF) range has been found to stimulate a cellular stress response, leading to expression of stress response genes. Research shows that Vitamin D Receptor (VDR) pathways are susceptible to interference by electrosmog. The function of another human protein, lysozyme, has been shown to be disrupted by electromagnetic radiation… depletion of lysozyme reduces bacteria-killing ability of human airway sections by approximately fifty percent. Electrosmog has also been shown to induce DNA strand breakages, Blocking exposure to electromagnetic fields (EMF) produces significant symptom changes in 90% of patients with autoimmune disease. www.greenmedinfo.com/blog/groundbreaking-study-shows-shielding-emf-improves-autoimmune-disease1
According to researchers Marshall and Heil (2017), for instance, “The recent release of WiGig and anti-collision vehicle radars in the 60 GHz region embody a 1000-fold increase in frequency, and photon energy, over the exposures mankind experienced up until the 1950s” (1).
Better safe than sorry: stay away from 5G millimeter waves. 5G Technology and induction of coronavirus in skin cells publishd on pubmed.gov: “In this research, we show that 5G millimeter waves could be absorbed by dermatologic cells acting like antennas, transferred to other cells and play the main role in producing Coronaviruses in biological cells. DNA is built from charged electrons and atoms and has an inductor-like structure. This structure could be divided into linear, toroid and round inductors. Inductors interact with external electromagnetic waves, move and produce some extra waves within the cells. The shapes of these waves are similar to shapes of hexagonal and pentagonal bases of their DNA source. These waves produce some holes in liquids within the nucleus. To fill these holes, some extra hexagonal and pentagonal bases are produced. These bases could join to each other and form virus-like structures such as Coronavirus. To produce these viruses within a cell, it is necessary that the wavelength of external waves be shorter than the size of the cell. Thus 5G millimeter waves could be good candidates for applying in constructing virus-like structures such as Coronaviruses (COVID-19) within cells.“
This is such a strange study – who would want to create coronavirus like structures within cells? These sound just like exosomes – see below:
Exosomes are small (30–150 nm) vesicles containing sophisticated RNA and protein cargo, that are constantly secreted by all cells in vitro and in vivo. Exosomes are changing research due to the intriguing functions within human body, including intercellular communication and signaling. These extracellular vesicles are growing, both in understanding their biological functions and using them towards practical applications such as development of non-invasive diagnostics and advanced therapeutics
According to Dr. Kaufman, what the experts call COVID-19 is not really a disease and a deadly “virus” per se but an “exosome”. Kaufman argued that exosomes are the agents that can be found on the tests using RT-PCR (Reverse Transcription – Polymerase Chain Reaction), of course the test they use for COVID-19, that is a naturally occurring agent in body cells found in different parts, including the lungs. In his presentation, he explained that exosomes are excreted by the cells when fighting various insults caused by environmental and biological toxins, stress (including fear), infection, harmful radiations, and other kinds of injuries. These exosomes, Kaufman emphasized, do not harm the body but instead provide benefits to our health by facilitating healing. “the exosome and the virus are essentially indistinguishable from each other.” [source]
Question: if exosomes are part of us humans, transferring genetic material, and if they look just like coronaviruses: would a coronavirus vaccine interfere with the function our exosomes have? Could that unlash unwanted reactions / auto immune diseases?
The current “health” system is too much influenced by profit orientated interests. We need a public benefit orientated system instead. Teaching people how to live a more healthy and happy life will improve their health, and we would not need more consultants, doctors, nurses and carers. Prevention is better than any treatment. In 2012 the largest and most detailed study into hospital deaths ever performed in the UK revealed, that almost 12,000 patients are dying needlessly in NHS hospitals every year because of basic errors by medical staff in the UK. That’s 1000 deaths / month.
A required policy change is encapsulated in this proposed slogan modification for the National Health Service: “Get Tested ASAP – Receive Early Treatment – Save your Life” to replace the official slogan “Stay Home – Protect the NHS – Save Lives”.
Why self-care is the most radical form of activism
Why healing the body puts us on a spiritual path
The core belief that leads to a medical-free life
Why it’s never been more important to become your own healer
A study in June 2020 found Five million drug errors kill or seriously harm Britons every year. with a yearly death toll between 1700 and 22,000. The drugs most likely to cause harm include the NSAIDs, clot-busters or antiplatelet drugs, anti-epilepsy medication, diabetes drugs to lower blood glucose levels, water tablets (diuretics), inhaled corticosteroids and some heart drugs, such as beta blockers.
Antibiotics,killing or preventing the growth of microorganisms, are still routinely administered and prescribed to tackle bacterial inflammation, causing many side effects resulting in breeding super resistant bugs. Antibiotics are also associated with obesity and kill the “good” bacteria we need in out gut, wiping out the well balanced eco system in the gut, leaving the patient’s immune system severely damaged for the future. Why are vitamin C and D not on the NICE list, and NHS staff not allowed to administer them? The universities where doctors are trained need to be reformed, and the governemt’s health policies need to be completely overhauled. Some examples:
Traditional treatments and alternative treatments should be allowed and available if they have a record of success, especially if they are cost efficient.
Each hospital should get a nutritional expert, advising wards and catering, and updating doctors and nurses on how food can support recovery.
Advertisements for foods which are unhealthy could be subject to a 10% health tax, increasing each year by 10%
The practice of vaccinations should be reviewed by an independent panel with the aim to minimise risks and side effects.
Vaccination is advertised as protecting us from diseases by acivating an immune system response through the creation of antibodies. It interferes with the immune system by increasing immunity against a short term disease on the expenses of a slight reduced immunity to other diseases. Nearly all studies are directly or indirectly financed by the pharmaceutical industry, and the development and testing of vaccines are exempted from the gold standard of other drugs, so it is difficult to find unbiased data.
“Vaccines force the immune system to go into inflammatory response but not in the proper manner – so the inflammatory response can remain unabated – confusing the immune system and making the person much more susceptible to other strains and other diseases. Vaccines dysregulate the immune system and weaken it to varying degrees. They can also interfere with our ability to mount an appropriate immune response and they can make us more susceptible to other strains and types of diseases – a phenomenon called virus interference” [source]
On 22 November 2020an extremely rare study comparing vaccinated with unvaccinated children was published by “The Institute for Pure and Applied Knowledge” (IPAK), a not-for-profit organization which exists to perform scientific research in the public interest, funded by people. Read about it HERE and HERE. Title: “Relative Incidence of Office Visits and Cumulative Rates of Billed Diagnoses Along the Axis of Vaccination” by James Lyons-Weiler and Paul Thomas
“We can conclude that … indeed the vaccinated children appear to be significantly less healthy than the unvaccinated.”
Figure 5. Analysis 5. Cumulative office visits in the vaccinated (orange) vs. unvaccinated (blue) patients born into the practice: the clarity of the age-specific differences in the health fates of individuals who are vaccinated (2763) compared to the 561 unvaccinated in patients born into the practice over ten years is most strikingly clear in this comparison of the cumulative numbers of diagnoses in the two patient groups. The number of office visits for the unvaccinated is adjusted by a sample size multiplier factor (4.9) to the expected value as if the number of unvaccinated in the study was the same as the number of vaccinated. mdpi.com/1660-4601/17/22/8674/htm
Table 2) Relative Incidence of Office Visits (RIOV) and Cumulative Rates of Billed Diagnoses Along the Axis of Vaccinationmdpi.com/1660-4601/17/22/8674/htm
“Large increases in office visits were found among the vaccinated group in this group of respiratory illnesses. Our quartile representation shows consistent increases in the incidence of office visits for allergy, allergic rhinitis, asthma, sinusitis, and breathing issues with increased vaccine acceptance compared to the unvaccinated group (Figure 4A). In the most vaccinated quartile compared to unvaccinated comparison, the relative risks (and lower CI) of office visits related to these conditions were estimated for asthma (16.01), allergic rhinitis (20.64), sinusitis (11.32), and breathing issues (6.52);” “Because there were no cases of ADHD in the unvaccinated group, the quartile analysis uses a comparison to the least vaccinated decile to avoid division by zero.” Figure 4F below:…”families with children with autism may be inclined to opt out of the vaccination program, potentially reflecting a signal of informed choice by families excluding them from the higher vaccinated quartile.”
Figure 4 Relative Incidence of Office Visits (RIOV) axis of vaccination percentile vaccine uptake analysis: incidence of study outcome-related office visits relative to that found in the 2763 variably vaccinated compared to the 561 unvaccinated groups for each percentile of vaccine uptake on the x-axis. (A) Autoimmune respiratory illnesses; (B) attention deficit/hyperactive disorder and behavioral issues; (C) ear pain, otitis media, and eye disorders; (D) autoimmune conditions of the skin and blood; (E) gastroenteritis, weight/eating disorders, and seizure; and (F) development delays in speech, learning, and social interactions and autism spectrum disorder. mdpi.com/1660-4601/17/22/8674/htm
Vaccination appears to have had the largest impact on anemia and respiratory virus infection on the number of office visits
The authors indicate difficulties conducting this study: “Given negative social pressures and direct threats of undue consequences on individuals who participate in studies that cast any negative light on vaccines or the practice of vaccination, we respect their anonymity”
Like every treatment, vaccination also has risks:
SEOUL (Reuters) – Nine people have died after getting flu shots in South Korea in the past week, raising concerns over the vaccine’s safety just as the seasonal inoculation programme is expanded “Five new deaths were reported on Wednesday alone, but authorities had no plans to suspend the vaccination programme, unless investigations, including post mortems, revealed a link, which preliminary findings had not.” (21 October)
Intellihub writes: “The CDC, by definition, is a private corporation working on behalf of its stakeholders, which include key players in the pharmaceutical and vaccine industries that profit from the spread of disease, not from real prevention and cures.” “As more and more ‘vaccination’ propaganda appears in the mainstream media, it is crucial that the American people become aware of the outrageous scam the CDC and the medical industrial complex are running,” warns the AntiCorruption Society.
The results showed a positive association between COVID-19 deaths and IVR of people ≥65 years-old [IVR=Influenza Vaccination Rate]. For the 26 European countries considered, the results indicated that COVID-19 DPMI and the COVID-19 CFR were positively and statistically significantly associated with IVR in people ≥65 years-old in 2019 or latest data available. There is a significant increase in COVID-19 deaths from eastern to western regions in the world. [source]
“For example, for every 10 million individuals vaccinated in the United Kingdom, 21.5 cases of Guillain-Barré syndrome and 5.75 sudden deaths were expected to occur as unrelated coincidental events within 6 weeks of vaccination. 34“ WHO: VACCINE SAFETY BASICS, page 77
STUDY: Flu Vaccine Raises Risk of COVID Death – Correlation Confirmed by Scientific Analysis (18 December 2020) “Countries with high coverage of influenza vaccination in the elderly had the highest death toll from the coronavirus pandemic… our findings were corroborated by a peer-reviewed scientific analysis.” “It is possible that influenza vaccines alter our immune systems non-specifically to increase susceptibility to other infections; this has been observed with DTP and other vaccines.”
Below is a STRONG warning what is likely to happen if people get the flu vaccine AND a second vaccine (like the coronavirus vaccine) in the same season: the deaths rate could rise significantly
Flu vaccine deaths according to the US VAERS spiked in 2010 when a second vaccine against Swine Flu was given. This is a warning what is likely to happen if people who got the flu shot will receive an additional vaccine against coronavirus. This chart was presented by Brian Hooker, CDC whistleblower in an interview
This article discusses previous vaccine safety experiences:
People who received the trivalent influenza vaccine during the 2008-2009 flu season were between 1.4 and 2.5 times more likely to get infected with pandemic H1N1 in the spring and summer of 2009 than those who did not get the seasonal flu vaccine
A double-blind, placebo-controlled study on ferrets confirmed the results, showing the seasonal influenza vaccine did worsen symptoms after subsequent exposure to the H1N1 virus
A 2011 study found the seasonal flu vaccine may weaken children’s immune systems and increase their chances of getting sick from influenza viruses not included in the vaccine
In a 2012 study, children receiving inactivated influenza vaccines had a 4.4 times higher relative risk of contracting noninfluenza respiratory virus infections in the nine months following their inoculation
A 2020 study found people were 36% more likely to get some form of coronavirus infection if they had been vaccinated against influenza
studies have shown that when you get the flu vaccine, you may become more prone to flu caused by influenza viruses that are not contained in the vaccine, or other noninfluenza viral respiratory illnesses, including coronavirus infections
Conversely, researchers10,11,12 recently found that common colds caused by the betacoronaviruses OC43 and HKU1 might actually make you more resistant to SARS-CoV-2 infection, and that the resulting immunity might last as long as 17 years.
SARS-CoV-2 is one of seven different coronaviruses known to cause respiratory illness in humans.13 Four of them cause symptoms associated with the common cold: 229E, NL63, OC43 and HKU1.
In addition to the common cold, OC43 and HKU1 — two of the most commonly encountered betacoronaviruses14 — are also known to cause bronchitis, acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and pneumonia in all age groups.15 The other three human coronaviruses — which are capable of causing more serious respiratory illness — are SARS-CoV, MERS-CoV and SARS-CoV-2.
A randomized placebo-controlled trial in children showed that flu shots increased fivefold the risk of acute respiratory infections caused by a group of non-influenza viruses, including coronaviruses. … it is possible that influenza vaccines alter our immune systems non-specifically to increase susceptibility to other infections; this has been observed with DTP and other vaccines.
A systematic review32 by the Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews found that to prevent one case of influenza-like illness (defined33 by the World Health Organization as an acute respiratory infection), the NNT [number needed to treat] for inactivated vaccines was 40. To prevent a single case of confirmed influenza, the number needed to vaccinate (NNV) was 71. [source]
Another study Influenza vaccination and respiratory virus interference among Department of Defense personnel found: “Examining non-influenza viruses specifically, the odds of both coronavirus and human metapneumovirus in vaccinated individuals were significantly higher when compared to unvaccinated individuals (OR = 1.36 and 1.51, respectively) (Table 5). Conversely, all other non-influenza respiratory viruses had decreased odds in the vaccinated population” [ ]
“Over 200 viruses cause influenza and influenza-like illness which produce the same symptoms (fever, headache, aches and pains, cough and runny noses). Without laboratory tests, doctors cannot tell the two illnesses apart. Both last for days and rarely lead to death or serious illness. At best, vaccines might be effective against only Influenza A and B, which represent about 10% of all circulating viruses.” [Source: Cochrane Summaries]. We can expect EXACTLY the same for coronaviruses: covid-19 will have mutated into around 200 strands after one year (read more in the next chapter) – and then there are also the usual yearly coronaviruses, each with mutations…
The fact checker website fullfact.org wants to debunk the claim: the “flu kills more people than covid-19”, revealing interesting details: “If we look at the underlying cause of death data for 2019, we can see that 1,213 people died specifically from flu, which is just 4.6% of the 26,342 who died from either influenza or pneumonia.” That means: 95.4% in the “influenza / pneumonia” category died from pneumonia – or: for each flu death, 19 people die of pneumonia. So a pneumonia vaccine would make MUCH more sense than any flu vaccine.“the ONS reports the number of “deaths involving COVID-19”, which means the number of death certificates that mention Covid-19 somewhere, whether or not it was the underlying cause.“ “Pneumonia is usually caused by a bacterial infection, but it can also be caused by a virus such as flu or the one that causes Covid-19… many people who die with Covid-19 have pneumonia as well, so the ONS explains that “deaths where both were mentioned have been counted only in the COVID-19 category”. More interesting information about how fact checkers manipulate data is in the Covid-19 Statistics article in “We’ve Got It All Wrong…“
The US Department of Justice issues a report on vaccine injuries and deaths every quarter. In 2015, there were 211 severe cases for the 3 month period from 5/16/2015. 86 of the settlements were listed in this report, 65 of the 86 settlements were for injuries and deaths due to the flu shot; the majority of flu shot injuries were for Guillain-Barré Syndrome (GBS). Here is a short video debunking the flu shot narrative.
First published in April 2015. The H1N1 vaccine fiasco ordered by the (corrupt) WHO Director General is of relevance to the current debate on a COVID-19 vaccine.
GlobalResearch reports on 20 April 2015: “The 2009 swine flu vaccine caused severe brain damage in over 800 children across Europe, and the UK government has now agreed to pay $90 million in compensation to those victims as part of a vaccine injury settlement.This is the same swine flu vaccine that the entire mainstream media ridiculously insists never causes any harm whatsoever” “The vaccine caused narcolepsy and cataplexy in hundreds of children. Both are signs of neurological damage caused by vaccine additives which include mercury, aluminum, MSG, antibiotics and even formaldehyde.” in 2009, the Norwegian health authorities urged everyone, not just at-risk groups, to receive vaccinations after the World Health Organization designated swine flu a pandemic. “Norway has seen more than 170 reported cases of children developing narcolepsy after receiving the Pandemrix vaccine,” reports the Global Post. “The government has so far paid $13 million to 86 victims, including 60 children…” “those children who are damaged by vaccines end up being big profit centers for the same pharmaceutical companies that damaged them in the first place.”
Rudolf Steiner (1861-1925) about vaccination: “In the future, we will eliminate the soul with medicine. Under the pretext of a ‘healthy point of view’, there will be a vaccine by which the human body will be treated as soon as possible directly at birth, so that the human being cannot develop the thought of the existence of soul and Spirit.
To materialistic doctors, will be entrusted the task of removing the soul of humanity. As today, people are vaccinated against this disease or that disease, so in the future, children will be vaccinated with a substance that can be produced precisely in such a way that people, thanks to this vaccination, will be immune to being subjected to the “madness” of spiritual life. He would be extremely smart, but he would not develop a conscience, and that is the true goal of some materialistic circles.
With such a vaccine, you can easily make the etheric body loose in the physical body. Once the etheric body is detached, the relationship between the universe and the etheric body would become extremely unstable, and man would become an automaton, for the physical body of man must be polished on this Earth by spiritual will. So, the vaccine becomes a kind of arymanique force; man can no longer get rid of a given materialistic feeling. He becomes materialistic of constitution and can no longer rise to the spiritual”
The above quote is from the Rudolf Steiner lecture series “Fall of the spirits of Darkness”“Changes in Humanity’s Make-up” (Lecture 5), archives GA177
Is the new mRNA gene therapy technology used in Covid-19 vaccines safe? mRNA vaccines have never been licensed before. RNA is the only molecule known to recapitulate all biochemical functions of life: definition, control, and transmission of genetic information. Since the Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS-1) outbreak in 2002 there have been numerous coronavirus vaccine animal studies conducted: either the animals were not completely protected, became severely ill with accelerated autoimmune conditions, or died, primarily attributed to what is called Antibody-Dependent Enhancement (ADE). The SARS-CoV-2 virus (which can cause covid-19 symptoms) is from the same cronavirus family as SARS-1. Experimental vaccines for SARS, MERS, HIV, and other diseases have not been proven effective and safe for humans.
mRNA vaccines are coated withPEGylated lipid nanoparticles (polyethylene glycol). This coating hides the mRNA from our immune system which ordinarily would attack and destroy kill any foreign material. PEGylated lipid nanoparticles have been shown to imbalance certain immune responses and can induce allergies and even autoimmune diseases. Neither Pfizer/BioNTech nor Moderna have ‘completely’ disclosed everything in their vaccines. Normally a vaccines would need to be tested AT LEAST five years. Fast-track policy is a recipe for mass disaster. Vaccine manufacturers unlimited freedom to create, develop, and market vaccines without any liability.

When your house is on fire, you don’t call the police to investigate, but the fire brigade to extinguish the fire, evacuate the building to save lives and prevent further damage. If the fire is a burning deep frying oil pan, do NOT pour water on it, as it will make it worse, but suffocate it with a fire blanket! Investigating “what caused the fire?” or “who started the fire?” or “who paid the one starting the fire?” (conspiracy theories) need to wait until the fire is extinguished.
The same applies to the coronavirus “pandemic”: we first need to make sure we use the correct treatments and procedures to ensure the situation will not get worse (like using ventilators or lockdown). How the virus came into existence and who is behind it will surface in due course, and any misconduct will hopefully be dealt with by proper investigations and courtss after we have dealt with the virus – and the virus “cure”: politics.

We focussed too much on the novel coronavirus and lost sight of everything else. Being obsessed about avoiding death, we lose our lives.
“In the last year I have realized that my government and its advisers are lying in the faces of the British people about everything to do with this coronavirus. Absolutely everything.” [Dr Mike Yeadon, 11 Apr 2021]
CLARIFICATION: SARS-COV-2 is a virus many of us carry without any symptoms. Covid-19 is a respiratory disease caused by the SARS-COV-2 virus REMINDER: the problem was NOT the coronavirus, but a human immune system not functioning properly.
According to the latest immunological studies, the overall lethality of Covid-19 (IFR) is about 0.1% to 0.3% and thus in the range of a severe influenza (flu). In most places, the risk of death for the general population of school and working age is in the range of a daily car ride to work. Up to 80% of all test-positive persons remain symptom-free. Even among 70-79 year olds, about 60% remainsymptom-free. About 95% of all people develop at most moderate symptoms.

All infectious diseases in 2020 have SIGNIFICANTLY DECREASED in the UK (see chapter Covid deaths & Statistics below)
“COVID-19 Study of Almost Ten Million Finds No Evidence of Asymptomatic Spread” [20 December] Not a single transmission of Coronavirus from a person without symptoms. The research paper also indicates that “virulence of SARS-CoV-2 virus may be weakening over time“. “If asymptomatic transmission is not happening,… then all of the current lock-down regulations, mask wearing requirements and social distancing rules/decrees are based on a complete fallacy of false assumptions.”
Covid infection shown to provide as much immunity as vaccines [Financial Times, 14 January 2021] People who have already contracted coronavirus are as protected against reinfection as those who have received the best Covid-19 vaccines, according to a survey of 20,000 UK healthcare workers, the largest study in the world so far. Public Health England regularly tested two matched groups of volunteers between June and November — 6,000 health workers who had previously been infected with coronavirus and 14,000 who had not. A comparison of infections in the two groups, described in preliminary results released on Thursday, found that prior infection provided at least 83 per cent protection against reinfection. It gave better than 94 per cent protection against symptomatic Covid-19, matching the figures for the most effective Covid-19 vaccines. “Natural infection looks as good as a vaccine, which is very good news for the population” Susan Hopkins, PHE senior medical adviser said. People who had recovered from Covid-19 were less likely to transmit the virus to others unknowingly, because natural infection appeared to provide about 75 per cent protection against asymptomatic reinfection. Eleanor Riley, professor of virology at the University of Edinburgh, said: “If you believe you already had the disease and are protected, you can be reassured it is highly unlikely you will develop severe infection”

Dr. Tom Cowan discovered an astonishing research article by the CDCby a group of about 20 virologists from June 2020. He published his analysis of this article on sott.net on 15 October: “the virologists found that solutions containing SARS-CoV-2 — even in high amounts — were NOT infective to any of the three human tissue cultures they tested. In plain English, this means they proved, on their terms, that this “new coronavirus” is not infectious to human beings.” “These virologists, published by the CDC, performed a clear proof, on their terms, showing that the SARS-CoV- 2 virus is harmless to human beings.That is the only possible conclusion, but, unfortunately, this result is not even mentioned in their conclusion.“
20 virologists find that the SARS-CoV- 2 virus is harmless to human beings [more above]
Humans have evolved with viruses and we have more viruses in us than body cells. The dance between our immune system and the virus usually ends with our immune system learning a new skill, getting more resilient and long term protection – and the virus is retreating and mutating. Farr’s Law of Epidemics states that epidemics tend to rise and fall in a roughly symmetrical pattern or bell-shaped curve. “Expansion begins exponentially but fades quickly after about eight weeks,” Professor Yitzhak Ben Israel
Wrong scary predictions by the Imperial College London versus reality. Sweden fared well without locking down.
Prof. Ferguson predicted 8 million in hospital and 500 000 deaths for the UK due to coronavirus. Why did our government trust that scientist who used his 13 year old catastrophic model again, which paved the way to the Coronavirus Bill and the 2020 lockdown?
Neil Ferguson, mathematical biologyprofessor at Imperial College London, has a track record of wrong pred. ictions. His 2001 model of mad cow disease predicted fatalities up to 150,000 deaths in England, when in fact only 177 people died until 2020 1, but 6 million cows and sheep were culled.
Dr. Paul Offit, one of the leading proponents of vaccination (the man who infamously stated that babies can safely receive 100,000 vaccines at once) posted a statement on his Facebook page regarding this matter. His message is calm, rational, and reasonable: “Which will do more harm, the virus or the fear of the virus? Why are we so scared of the novel coronavirus, COVID-19?People are usually scared of viruses for three reasons: One: the virus causes gruesome, disfiguring, permanent symptoms. Smallpox, for example, not only caused life-long facial scarring, it also was a frequent cause of blindness in those who survived. Two: the virus has a predilection for children. Polio paralyzed tens of thousands of young children every year until a vaccine finally eliminated the disease from the United States. Three: the virus is likely to kill you. Rabies kills virtually 100 percent of people who develop symptoms after a bite from a rabid animal. The novel coronavirus currently circulating in the United States–the one that has caused us to shut down schools, restaurants, sporting events, and virtually every aspect of our culture–falls into none of these categories.”

Good News: the covid-19 epidemic is OVER! As every winter and as predicted by independent science, the winter peak of deaths and cases is CLEARLY over. So WHAT ARE WE WAITING FOR?
UK positive pcr test results (“cases“) show the winter peak is OVER. [gov.uk]
Keep in mind, the diagrams above and below are based on the controversial PCR test and include an unknown amount of false positives. The UK deaths below include all deaths within 28 days of a positive pcr test result, regardless of the cause of death. None of these diagrams show covid-19 infections.

Coronaviruses are seasonal just like the flu, peaking January to March in the northern hemisphere [see “Human coronavirus circulation in the United States 2014-2017” and the Glasgow study 2005-2013. Viruses stay a few weeks before they mutate and disappear and natural herd immunity is achieved. Covid-19 may be new, but it is still part of the coronavirus family.
Coronaviruses mutate fast. SARS-CoV-2 lineages tracing in over 80 countries shows, that after six months the original Wuhan virus has mutated into100 lines and gets less virulent. According to Johannes Kreis, the original virus has disappeared by now.
Different seasons for different viruses – see table on the right. Seasonal variations in frequency of selected upper respiratory tract infection pathogens. PIV = parainfluenza virus; RSV = respiratory syncytial virus; MPV = metapneumovirus; Group A Strept = group A streptococcus.
“We analyzed diagnostic data from 44,230 cases of respiratory illness that were tested for 11 taxonomically broad groups of respiratory viruses over 9 y… including CoV = human coronaviruses (229E, NL63, HKU1)”
The three known groups of coronavirus are associated with a variety of diseases of humans and domestic animals (for example, cattle, pigs, cats, dogs, rodents, and birds), including gastroenteritis and upper and lower respiratory tract disease. Known coronaviruses include human Coronavirus 229E (HCoV-229E), canine coronavirus (CCoV), feline infectious peritonitis virus (FIPV), porcine transmissible gastroenteritis virus (TGEV), porcine epidemic diarrhea virus (PEDV), human coronavirus OC43 (HCoV-OC43), bovine coronavirus (BCoV), porcine hemagglutinating encephalomyelitis virus (HEV), rat sialodacryoadenitis virus (SDAV), mouse hepatitis virus (MHV), turkey coronavirus (TCoV), and avian infectious bronchitis virus (IBV-Avian) [source: Coronavirus isolated from humans, US patent May 2007]
Did we need more ventilators to treat covid patients? The UK government was repeating the slogan “we need more ventilators!” and rush-ordered them. The medical and research community should have known what was killing people with SARS in 2003. It wasn’t viral pneumonia. It was their own immune systems in overdrive in a so-called “cytokine storm” that can be more deadly than the virus itself. [source ]
A study published in JAMA April 22 describing the outcomes for 5,700 patients hospitalised with COVID-19 in the New York City area reported:
“Mortality rates for those who received mechanical ventilation in the 18-to-65 and older-than-65 age groups were 76.4% and 97.2%, respectively. Mortality rates for those in the 18-to-65 and older-than-65 age groups who did not receive mechanical ventilation were 19.8% and 26.6%, respectively. There were no deaths in the younger-than-18 age group.”
“Mortality rate for those who received mechanical ventilationin the older-than-65 age group was 97.2%” For those NOT receiving mechanical ventilation: 26.6% Covid patients are four times more likely to SURVIVE WITHOUT a ventilator
The cytokine storm needs to be addressed. Not the virus. Yet all the focus was on anti-viral medications that would do nothing to address the immune system dysfunction. Neither the “Health” Ministry, not the media were telling the public anything about the immune system – it was all about “the virus” and “there is no treatment” and “only a vaccine can help”; none of this is true.
“Health is a state of complete physical, mental and social well-being and not merely the absence of disease or other physical impairment” [WHO constitution, 1948]
“Social relationships, or the relative lack thereof, constitute a major risk factor for health—rivaling the effect of well established health risk factors such as cigarette smoking, blood pressure, blood lipids, obesity and physical activity” “social relationships influence the health outcomes of adults and should take social relationships as seriously as other risk factors that affect mortality, the researchers conclude.” [Social Relationships and Mortality Risk: A Meta-analytic Review]
“There is robust evidence that social isolation and lonelinesssignificantly increase risk for premature mortality, and the magnitude of the risk exceeds that of many leading health indicators,” “Loneliness and social isolation are twice as harmful to physical and mental health as obesity”
Loneliness contributes to higher rates of heart disease, cancer, high blood pressure, diabetes, infection, anxiety, depression, insomnia, addiction and suicide. Isolating old people from their friends, families, children and grand children is heartless and cruel. No soldier in combat will be left alone to die by his comrades – but we let our old people die without their loved ones around.
Anxiety from reactions to COVID-19 will destroy at least seven times more years of life than can be saved by lockdowns. The study, conducted by Just Facts, computed based on a broad array of scientific data that stress is one of the deadliest health hazards in the world, and stay-at-home orders, business shutdowns, media frenzy, as well as legitimate concerns about the virus can ultimately cost more lives than lockdowns can save. “By choosing to lockdown, policymakers are choosing the greater of two evils, not the lesser.”
The result: two weeks after lockdown and “stay at home” orders, the non-covid deaths at home have increased significantly
“Frequent in-person connections were associated with lower depression and loneliness; frequent remote connections were not. Conclusions: Depression and loneliness were elevated during the early US COVID-19 response. Those who maintained frequent in-person, but not remote, social and sexual connections had better mental health outcomes.” [US lockdown study April 2020]
Study “Social regulation of gene expression in human leukocytes” “These data provide the first indication that human genome-wide transcriptional activity is altered in association with a social epidemiological risk factor. Impaired transcription of glucocorticoid response genes and increased activity of pro-inflammatory transcription control pathways provide a functional genomic explanation for elevated risk of inflammatory disease in individuals who experience chronically high levels of subjective social isolation.” “High subjective social isolation is associated with a statistically significant net reduction in the number of expressed genes (131 down-regulated versus 78 up-regulated, p value by exact binomial test).”
Lockdown prevents the development of population immunity, prolonging the problem. It is a rigid overreaction of the political system, just like the cytokine storm of the immune system.
Report 10 Sept: COVID-19 Pandemic Has Decimated Mental Health 53% of American adults said their mental health “has been negatively impacted due to worry and stress over the coronavirus” 40.9% of respondents reported anxiety, depression or symptoms of trauma- and stressor-related disorder relating to the pandemic. 36% report having trouble sleeping, 32% have trouble eating, 12% report increased alcohol consumption and/or substance use and 12% report worsening of chronic health conditions due to worry and stress. 13.3% of American adults reported new or increased substance use as a way to manage stress, and 10.7% of adults said they’d seriously contemplated suicide in the past 30 days. Unpaid caregivers for adults had the highest rate of suicidal ideation at 30.7%, followed by young adults, age 18 to 24 (25.5%) and essential workers (21.7%) Those faring the worst are people sheltering in place, 47% of whom report negative health effects, compared to 37% of those not sheltering in place. “More than 1 in 3 adults in the U.S. have reported symptoms of anxiety or depressive disorder during the pandemic (weekly average for May: 34.5%; weekly average for June: 36.5%; weekly average for July: 40.1%).” For comparison, from January to June 2019, the rate of anxiety or depressive disorder was 11%. The week of April 20, which, looking back, coincided with the peak of COVID-19 deaths in the U.S., suicides exceeded COVID-19 deaths in Tennessee.
A new peer reviewed study by Stanford researchers has found that mandatory lockdowns do not provide more benefits to stopping the spread of COVID-19 than voluntary measures such as social distancing. The study compared countries that had imposed mandatory lockdowns, such as England, France, Germany, Iran, Italy, Netherlands, Spain and the U.S., to those that had relied on the public to follow voluntary measures, such as Sweden and South Korea. The authors insisted that stay at home orders and business closures had no additional impacting on lowering the spread of the virus. [article source]
Staying at home, using zoom and ordering on-line orders is an unhealthy form of torture These government instructions led to an increase of time spent in front of computer and TV screens, including for children. This has a negative effect on healthy sleep, eye sight and healthy child development. The increased exposure to mass media manipulation increases fear and stress, reduces creativity and phantasy, resulting in apathy. “no hope, no future” – passive giving up people feeling victimised… We are coaxed to turn into “zoombies”.
On top of the negative screen impact on health, this cyber time is lost for a REAL experience of nature and other people. On-line shopping has skyrocket, and amazon and other big tax dodging companies’ make enormous profits – while the local High Streets and small business are facing a financial abyss.

“government actions such as border closures, full lockdowns, and a high rate of COVID-19 testing were not associated with statistically significant reductions in the number of critical cases or overall mortality.” [A country level analysis , published in The Lancet on 21 July]
“The lockdown regime was detrimental to the health of the very demographic it was supposedly designed to ‘keep safe.” Whether by design or criminal neglect, lockdown policy has actively targeted the most vulnerable, singling them out for unusual and cruel treatment. Premature mortality is the inevitable and obvious result.”
We know that it is likely that SARS-CoV-2 had already spread around the world before any lockdowns were initiated. We also know that the virus lay virtually dormant and only decided to cause statistically significant mortality after the lockdowns began. Once the WHO identified the “novel” virus and declared a global pandemic, it was the ensuing Lockdown regimes which prompted unseasonable spikes in mortality. The lockdown regime was detrimental to the health of the very demographic it was supposedly designed to “keep safe.” The vast majority of those claimed coronavirus deaths were not related to COVID-19. We have clear evidence that the Lockdown regime has caused, and will continue to cause, ill health and death. [from Lockdown Deaths, Not Covid Deaths | UK Column]
Registered deaths in England and Wales have currently fallen below the five-year average for the last five weeks. Over this same period there have been over 700 excess deaths per week, or 3,799 fatalities in total, occurring at home. only 179 of those deaths have Covid-19 mentioned on their certificate. This represents a huge number of unexplained – and potentially avoidable deaths – particularly if they represent individuals deterred from visiting hospitals.’ 3,799 is almost 50 per cent higher than the number of people who have sadly lost their lives (2,582) to coronavirus in any setting over the same period. This suggests that it is possible that more people are dying from direct or indirect effects of Covid-19 prevention rather than the virus itself.Dr Waqar Rashid in the Spectator, 30 July 2020
“Extra 10,000 dementia deaths in England and Wales in April amid reduced medical care and family visits”repots The Guardian; “There were 83% more deaths from dementia than usual in April… a reduction in essential medical care and family visits were taking a devastating toll.” The British Medical Journal reports 20 000 unexplained deaths in senior care facilities of elderly people in the UK in April and May, ON TOP OF the 10 000 deaths labelled with coronavirus. Clearly, the aim to “protect the vulnerable and over 70s” was not achieved.
“As national restrictions were imposed, experts from the Department of Health, the Office of National Statistics (ONS), the government’s Actuary Department and the Home Office forecast the collateral damage from delays to healthcare and the effects of recession arising from the pandemic response. It estimated that in a reasonable worst case scenario, around 50,000 people would die from coronavirus in the first six months of the pandemic, with mitigation measures in place. The report published in April calculated that up to 25,000 could die from delays to treatment in the same period and a further 185,000 in the medium to long term – amounting to nearly one million years of life lost.” From Telegraph.co.uk 19 July and 20 July on Metro.co.uk
At the peak of COVID-19, suicides exceeded COVID-19 deaths in Tennessee / US 10.7% of US adults said they’d seriously contemplated suicide (July 2020)
England had 50% more deaths / million inhabitants with lockdown than Sweden (without lockdown)
Dr. Kendrick in an interview:“I have looked at the impact of social upheaval in the post-Soviet Union countries in the late 1980s and early 1990s. Russia had five million excess deaths in that period due to economic problems. That is how powerful the effects can be. We are going to see the downsides of lockdown policies around the world. South Africa is already bursting at the seams. We have to look at this with a global perspective. This is going to be extremely costly and destructive of huge sections of the population.“ Hospitals became essentially ‘covid only’ centres vast numbers of patients were wilfully neglected, resulting in many thousands of unnecessary deaths.
Staying homeleads to “sunshine” vitamin D deficiency, increasing chances of getting asthma & wheezing, influenza, tuberculosis, depression, schizophrenia, high blood pressure & coronary heart disease, type 1 diabetes, osteoporosis, rickets, muscle weakness & aches, Crohn’s Disease, multiple Sclerosis, rheumatoid arthritis and cancer. The UK government caused avoidable illness and deaths by instructing people to stay home.
“It’s classified content shows beyond a shadow of a doubt that in fact the population was deliberately driven to panic by politicians and mainstream media.” [Dr. Reiner Fuellmich in ‘Crimes against Humanity‘]
“False Alarm” (7 May 2020)
The information about the dangers is incomplete and only deal with a narrow segment of the danger’s complexity. Without a proper assessment of the situation, appropriate measures cannot be efficient. Politicians had little chance to make appropriate decisions
There is no evidence that this is more than a false alarm. There has been no increased danger for the population. Most people dying would have died anyway later this year. The danger of Covid-19 has been exaggerated. It is likely we have a global false alarm situation. This conclusion was checked by KM4 and is in alliance with the data provided by RKI [Robert Koch Institut].
The crisis management did not have tools to stop and revoke the state of emergency when it became clear, that the damage of the emergency procedures would be bigger than their benefit.
The collective damage is already higher than the benefit, which is reflected in the casualties outnumbering the virus deaths
The damage caused by the corona crisis for the whole society is already gigantic; most of it will show in the near and far future; we cannot stop it any more, but may be able to limit it.
The resilience of complex and interdependent essential infrastructures of our society has deteriorated, leaving our society more vulnerable to future crises.
The state implemented protection measures have lost any sense by now, but are still in place, and should be lifted ASAP to prevent additional deaths and to stabilise the complex interdependent critical infrastructures.
The incompetence and mistakes of the crisis management with inconsistent and contradicting information have caused a disinformation of the population, and might be perceived as not trustworthy.
3. The crisis management did not have tools to stop and revoke the state of emergency when it became clear, that the damage of the emergency procedures would be bigger than their benefit.
[the above text is a shortened translated summary of the German summary of the crisis analysis] – here is an article in English. The analysis results were too embarrassing for the government – it needed a whistleblower to publish it. The 93 page German original is here. The situation in Britain is very similar to the findings of this analysis.
that the German health care system has never even been close to running the risk of decompensating, i.e. being overburdened;
that measurement figures, such as the doubling rate and this dreadful number “R 0”, had the primary purpose of creating fear and putting pressure on the population, and were communicated in an incomplete and manipulative way for lack of reference to the number of tests carried out;
that false and untrustworthy fatality figures have been misused for intimidation purposes;
that the number of cases was already significantly declining well before the lockdown;
that a general mask-wearing obligation ordered 4 weeks later, I repeat 4 weeks later, was factually unfounded, unlawful and psycho-socially irresponsible;
that the incorrigible sticking to measures and already refuted statements, i.e. against better knowledge and proven evidence, is a criminal offence in this context; and
that ultimately a drastic change in the party-political decision-making structures is overdue because this is the only way to reliably prevent this anti-democratic approach from being continued or repeated.”
Polymearase Chain Reaction (PCR) test – OVERVIEW: The pcr tests for fragments of the SARS-COV-2 virus, NOT for the Covid-19 disease. Healthy people testing “positive” are not “cases”. A medical “case” has to be ill or show symptoms needing hospital admission. To get 100% confirmed real positives, the PCR test must be run at no more than 17 amplification cycles. Patients cannot be contagious above25 cycles. The maximum reasonably reliable Ct value is 30 cycles. Above 35 cycles, 97% false positives can be expected. The UK NHS is using up to 45 amplification cycles. In an independent peer review, 22 international scientists found ten fatal problemswith the Corman-Drosten paper the PCR test is based on. The PCR test is useless as a specific diagnostic tool
The chance of detecting a positive culture using the PCR test after 34 or more amplifications is near zero
Read MUCH more about the PCR test, understanding the Cycle threshold, why there are no asymptomatic transmissions, the 10 major flaws a team of 22 scientists published in their peer review of the “Corman-Drosten paper” in the article:
Wikipedia writes: In epidemiology, the basic reproduction number, or basic reproductive number (sometimes called basic reproduction ratio or basic reproductive rate), denoted (pronounced R nought or R zero),[20] of an infection can be thought of as the expected number of cases directly generated by one case in a population where all individuals are susceptible to infection.[17]
…not to be confused with the effective reproduction number R (usually written [t for time], sometimes R e ),[22] which is the number of cases generated in the current state of a population, which does not have to be the uninfected state.
is not a biological constant for a pathogen as it is also affected by other factors such as environmental conditions and the behaviour of the infected population.
values are usually estimated from mathematical models, and the estimated values are dependent on the model used and values of other parameters. … it is recommended not to use obsolete values or compare values based on different models.[25] does not by itself give an estimate of how fast an infection spreads in the population. [end of Wikipedia quote]
A major problem with the R number (or: R value) is, that models are based on homogeneous population behaviour and mixing. In reality some people mix and meet others a lot, while others stay home alone. See the SIR model in the chapter “Herd Immunity threshold HIT” in the next article “We Need To Focus On The Immune System…“
“The ‘R value’ is not a strong enough number to bear the burden of any Government policy.” “‘R‘ is an artificial figure calculated using mathematical models which have repeatedly been found to reach wrong-headed conclusions.” [Dr. John Lee]
Researchers at the South Korean centre for disease control and prevention (CDC) say, that natural immunity is gained after infectionwith Covid-19.
The focus in this article is on information and studies which the main stream media do not share with us, helping you to make a balanced oponion. “Truth” can have several sometimes contradicting aspects. Science is based on shifting sands of change, development, permanent questioning of reality – and willingness to qestion evereything. This chapter about face masks in a time of a declared global pandemic will hopefully give new insights.
This meme above summarises some of the concerns about making face coverings mandatory for all. One seize does not fit all situations…
The government keeps repeating the message “We need the Track & Trace app to prevent the virus spread”. Apart from SERIOUS doubts about the data security as well as the reliance of such a system, this is a typical “focus on the symptoms” approach (even when there are no symptoms!), not addressing the problem: • The virus is not the problem, but the immune system.
• The ‘Track & Trace’ is based on the PCR test identifying people who test ‘positive’ as well as those whom they met in the last days (including contacts too short to cause any infection). The UK government has repeatedly wasted money by outsourcing contracts to incompetent businesses, ordering unsuitable (ventilators) or not fit for purpuse (tests, face masks, PPE) goods in huge quantities.
Remember: the “Track & Trace” is based on unsuitable PCR test results
A WHO study on influenza pandemics in 2019 came to the conclusion that contact tracing is not useful from an epidemiological point of view. The WHO recommends (page 22): “Active contact tracing is not recommended in general because there is no obvious rationale for it in most Member States. This intervention could be considered in some locations and circumstances to collect information on the characteristics of the disease and to identify cases, or to delay widespread transmission in the very early stages of a pandemic in isolated communities.” We are neither in a very early stage, nor in an isolated community.
Sky News reports on 20 July: “The UK government has admitted its contact tracing programme is unlawful in a legal letter which confirms it has been running in breach of data protection laws since it was launched in May”.
NSA whistleblower Edward Snowden warned as early as March that governments could use the corona crisis as an occasion or pretext for expanding global surveillance and control, thus creating an “architecture of oppression”. A whistleblower who had taken part in a training program for contact tracers in the US described it as “totalitarian” and a “danger to society”.
The failing contact tracing system should be stripped from outsourcing firms to save lives and avoid another national lockdown. The Labour Party has joined demands from local leaders and scientists to scrap a contract with privateers Serco. Labour said it is “ineffective and not fit for purpose”.Campaigners demand the £300 million cost of renewing the contract on August 23 be diverted to boost existing local public health teams. Mirror from 10 August
Privatised Failure The Conservatives Sidelined Public Health for the Market. by Molly Scott Cato, MEP, 5 June 2020 testing contracts have gone to a string of corporations with little or no medical expertise: Deloitte, Boots, Serco, G4S, Mitie, Levy and Sodexco. Together, they have appointed more than 5,000 staff overseeing testing at 50 regional test centres. These sites are being managed by one person qualified only as a first-aider. Many of these contracts have been awarded ‘without competing or advertising the requirement’ – in other words, the situation of emergency has allowed Government departments to hand these contracts to these companies with no questions asked.
A story from the “New Normal” – meet Sally: Sally has 2 kids and a husband. Sally was worried about Covid so she paid attention she followed the rules she worried about dying of covid she worried about her kids dying. So she followed the rules and she stayed in her home. She didn’t see anyone and only left the house to go shopping. She washed her hands and made sure the house was clean. She did her best to keep her family healthy. Sally watched the news Sally trusted the media and wanted to do what was right. When lockdown was over Sally was happy to take her kids to the park and to see her friends again. She was glad that life was returning to normal. Sally decided to book a holiday to Spain because the goverment said their was no risk but a few weeks later the goverment changed their minds. If Sally and her family go on holiday they have to isolate for 2 weeks. Sally decided that her family had missed out on enough so she spoke to her boss and her boss agreed to give her 2 weeks unpaid leave. Money would be tight but it would be worth it to get away. Sally followed all the rules in Spain she masked up when leaving her apartment. She didn’t mix with anyone and she had a lovely time on holiday with her family She kept her family safe and stuck to the rules. Her holiday wasn’t the same but Sally was glad to take a break from the UK enjoy the sunshine. Sally didn’t realise how hard isolation would be when she returned to the UK No visitors, no walking of the dog, no trips to the supermarket, complete isolation was hard. She knew her family were healthy and free of corona but she had to follow the goverment rules. There was no way she could pay a fine for breaking the rules. After 2 weeks the kids could go back to school oh how excited they were to see their friends. Kids are happy to get back into a routine. Life feels normal. 3 days after being back at school Sally gets a call from school to tell her someone in the kids year group has tested positve. The full year group has to go home and isolate for 14 days. Sally doesn’t have anyone to help with childcare so Sally has to take 2 weeks unpaid leave. Only this time her boss is not as pleased to give her the time off. Sally isolates with her kids obeys the rules. Home schools but life is getting harder and she can barely afford to feed her family her mental health is suffering. She needs something to look forward to so she makes a promise to herself they she will treat herself when kids go back to school. Kids go back to school. Even though Sally is struggling financially she books to get her haircut. She knows this will make her feel good. She’s starting to feel normal again. Back at work her boss isn’t happy they’ve had to take on a temp to cover the time she’s been off. Her colleagues treat her differently because of the time of she’s had. Sally feels sad she feels hurt that people can’t see that the kids having to isolate is out with her control. Sallys mental health is at breaking point but she needs this job the bills are piling up shes lost out on 4 weeks pay. Sally takes the kids to school on the way to work she gets a text message from test and trace her beautician has tested positive for coronavirus and she has to isolate immediately. Sally can’t go to work…her boss has to terminate her contract due to the amount of time off. Sally has no savings and the bills are stacking up. 6 months later Sally never had coronavirus she has been unable to find a job she has to go to local food banks for food. She’s at risk of losing her home. Sally thinks about suicide a lot!! Sally worries constantly that her kids might have to isolate. She knows school is the only time they get a decent meal.” [from a friend’s post]
Where might this lead to? MailOnline reports on 9 October: “Big Brother is watching your social-distancing! Over 1,000 AI scanners are monitoring how close pedestrians are walking to each other in major UK cities. Manufacturers Vivacity said data is used by officials to ‘inform policy decisions’are now used to identify pedestrians from other traffic and work out distances. In response to privacy concerns said no footage is saved or personal data kept.”
“Staff are exhausted with significant numbers – 30,000 at last count – off work for Covid-related issues.“ [BBC, 2nd December] Many of these 30 000 staff are probably absent from work because they need to self isolate – based on a medically meaningless “positiv” PCR test result, and NOT because they are ill. Britain has fewer hospital beds than other European countries, so that is a factor to consider.
The NHS wrote a letter to “At Risk Patients” living at home with the following instructions: – Try not to see anyone face-to face for at least 12 weeks – keep 3 steps (2metres) between you and other people in your home – Sleep in a different bed from other people if you can – Try not to use the kitchen at the same time as other people – If possible, eat by yourself in your room – Try to keep yourself well and happy These instructions feel more like punishment and isolation torture; how can anyone hope to uplift an elderly person’s spirit with that?
Dr. Kendrick in an interview:“You cannot dissociate money and health. We are spending as much on Covid-19 as we would spend on the NHS in three normal years.“ “It is going to destroy the health of a lot of people… If you are not willing to accept that you might have done more harm than good, you cannot look at the situation accurately or objectively.”
The LIGHT blue shows suspected covid-19 cases – DEFINITELY not the main issue
Our western “modern” medicine focusses on treating symptoms rather than finding the cause of an illness, and often creates long term unhealthy side effects. Reducing the fever sabotages the natural immune system at work and supports the disease. Antibiotics severely damage the biome, home of the immune system, and a complex and well balanced rain forest like environment. The result is often a short term improvement with a long term weaker health condition or causing other diseases to develop. On top of this systemic imbalance, almost 1,000 patients die needlessly in UK NHS hospitals every month because of basic errors by medical staff (UK study July 2012) “Save our NHS” as it is) means cementing a rigid system, which provides income to pharmaceutical companies and their share holders.

Dr. Kendrick in an interview: “we are going to miss the fact that the lockdown policies have caused an increase in deaths from many other things. There has been a 50 per cent reduction in people turning up to A&E. It is clear that people just do not want to bother the doctors. The clarion call was to clear the hospitals of patients. There was a point when my local hospital was a quarter full. Staff were wandering around with nothing to do… An awful lot of people have been standing around wondering what the hell to do with themselves. A&E has never been so quiet. They basically just started throwing people out into the intermediate care sector. The average age of death from Covid-19 in the UK is around 82, and most of those people have co-morbidities… They had one objective – to clear the hospitals – and everything else was subordinate to that… We locked down the population that had virtually zero risk of getting any serious problems from the disease, and then spread it wildly among the highly vulnerable age group.”
The media: “the first casualty in a war situation is the Truth” At a time where 19 out of 20 news items in the main stream media revolve around the coronavirus, and Google, Facebook and Youtube, evenTwitter and Vimeo, are selectively removing content damaging their financial interests from their platforms, or labelling content with true, partly true or false warnings, fake and biased news, we need to face it: Media are tempted to be biased toward their financial supporters.
Here is a recent example how the media reporting ABSOLUTE numbers create hysteria about India, which has LESS covid deaths per million than other countries. Source: LeftLockdownSceptics.com
It is increasingly difficult to criticise media and their role in influencing public opinion
“A newspaper is a device for making the ignorant more ignorant and the crazy crazier.” H. L. Mencken
In August 2020, the Columbia Journalism Review examined nearly twenty thousand charitable grants the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation had made through the end of June and found more than $250 million going toward journalism. Recipients included news operations like the BBC, NBC, Al Jazeera, ProPublica, National Journal, The Guardian, Univision, Medium, the Financial Times, TheAtlantic, the Texas Tribune, Gannett, Washington Monthly, Le Monde, and the Center for Investigative Reporting… journalistic organizations such as the Pulitzer Center on Crisis Reporting, the National Press Foundation, and the International Center for Journalists; and a variety of other groups creating news content or working on journalism, such as the Leo Burnett Company, an ad agency that Gates commissioned to create a “news site” to promote the success of aid groups. In some cases, recipients say they distributed part of the funding as subgrants to other journalistic organizations—which makes it difficult to see the full picture of Gates’s funding into the fourth estate. The foundation has long used its charitable giving to shape the public discourse on everything from global health to education to agriculture—a level of influence that has landed Bill Gates on Forbes’s list of the most powerful people in the world. Other ties include “participating in dozens of conferences, such as the Perugia Journalism Festival, the Global Editors Network, or the World Conference of Science Journalism,” as well as “help[ing] build capacity through the likes of the Innovation in Development Reporting fund.” PolitiFact and USA Today (run by the Poynter Institute and Gannett, respectively—both of which have received funds from the Gates Foundation) have used their fact-checking platforms to defend Gates from “false conspiracy theories” and “misinformation”
Results: 235 of 328 leaders (72%) had financial ties to industry.
Among 293 leaders who were medical doctors or doctors of osteopathy, 235 (80%) had ties. Total payments for 2017-19 leadership were almost $130m (£103m; €119m), with a median amount for each leader of $31 805 (interquartile range $1157 to $254 272). General payments, including those for consultancy and hospitality, were $24.8m and research payments were $104.6m—predominantly payments to academic institutions with association leaders named as principle investigators. Variation was great among the associations: median amounts varied from $212 for the American Psychiatric Association leaders to $518 000 for the American Society of Clinical Oncology.
Conclusions: Financial relationships between the leaders of influential US professional medical associations and industry are extensive, although with variation among the associations. The quantum of payments raises questions about independence and integrity, adding weight to calls for policy reform.
Big companies and corporations find ways to secure their survival, through lobbying politicians and influencing media for their advantage – while small companies and businesses struggle to survive.
Typical media reporting from a demonstration criticising the government politics
“Google is not a source of objective information. They’re a very one-sided indoctrination machine. Google’s basic strategy is ‘programming people.” “Google manipulates mankind by hiding certain information and imposing other information. Their mission is to ‘program’ humanity.” [Zach Vorhies, senior software engineer of Google]
The media contribute to influence public opinion and politics. Above some examples from The Guardian. So nothing new for the 2020 winter – except, that the NHS has a few thousand less beds available – and seveeral doctors, nurses and care personnel are stressed because some collegues are absent due to selfisolation after testing “positive”.
“Coronavirus disease 2019: The harms of exaggerated information and non‐evidence‐based measures“: “Based on Altmetric scores, the most discussed and most visible scientific paper across all 20+ million papers published in the last 8 years across all science is a preprint claiming that the new coronavirus’ spike protein bears “uncanny similarity” with HIV‐1 proteins.2 The Altmetric score of this work has reached an astronomical level of 13 725 points as of 5 March 2020. The paper was rapidly criticized as highly flawed, and the authors withdrew it within days. Regardless, major harm was already done” “The first report documenting transmission by an asymptomatic individual was published in the New England Journal of Medicine on January 30. However, the specific patient did have symptoms, but researchers had not asked.3“
We should ensure that the media do not use the power of images to generate emotions that influence our judgment. If you get pictures of coffins and death departments from Italy or pictures of completely empty shelves, then their effects exceed the facts mentioned.
“Virus Mania is a social disease of our highly developed society. To cure it will require conquering fear, fear being the most deadly contagious virus, most efficiently transmitted by the media.”
“Fear Porn?” – collage from BBC web site April 2020, by InProportion2
Even though the COVID-19 curve has been flattened, mainstream media outlets continue to push doomsday predictions of an impending explosion of deaths • According to Stanford University’s disease prevention chairman Dr. John Ioannidis, the COVID-19 fatality rate for those under the age of 45 is “almost zero,” and between the ages of 45 and 70, it’s somewhere between 0.05% and 0.3% • So, the fact that young and middle-aged adults are testing positive in droves is not a warning sign of an impending onslaught of deaths, as the risk of death in these age groups is minuscule • According to the Centre for Disease Control and Prevention, the COVID-19 mortality — which had declined for the last 10 weeks straight — “is currently at the epidemic threshold,” meaning if it declines just a little more, COVID-19 will no longer be considered an epidemic [14 July 2020]
Some previous pandemics were caused by volcanic eruptions leading to obscured sunshine resulting in food shortages and vitamin D deficiencies. Spanish Flu casualties were partly due to administration of aspirin, which lowers the fever (“shooting the immune system in the food”) and impedes on the vitamin C absorption in the body (vitamin C was not discovered yet), which is a fatal combination for stressed malnourished bodies fighting an infection. The “Second Wave” was most certainly not caused by the same virus than in the first winter – but that is difficult to proove or disprove in hindsight. We know however, is that this was a dire war situation, causing lots of fear and stress, which turns the immune system off – an open invitation for germs, bacteria and viruses to invade without much resistance. We can also assume, that the quality of sleep was bad in a war situation, which is a precondition for many diseases.
The New Scientist writes: “Medical and scientific experts now agree that bacteria, not influenza viruses, were the greatest cause of death during the 1918 flu pandemic.” [4 Aug 2008]
Bacterial Pneumonia Caused Most Deaths in 1918 Influenza Pandemic: “The majority of deaths during the influenza pandemic of 1918-1919 were not caused by the influenza virus acting alone, report researchers from the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), part of the National Institutes of Health. Instead, most victims succumbed to bacterial pneumonia following influenza virus infection. The pneumonia was caused when bacteria that normally inhabit the nose and throat invaded the lungs along a pathway created when the virus destroyed the cells that line the bronchial tubes and lungs.”
This main cause of death from bacterial lung infections was established in 2008 via a research study which examined the autopsies and lung tissue specimens and studies conducted at the time and since: the authors were expert pathologists. [Fauci et al, 2008].
Did wearing face masks contribute to viral pneumonia, causing most deaths in the Spanish Flu?
We know that cloth masks were routinely warn and were mandated in many places. The mandating of cloth masks was an experimental measure which went against the public health policies and scientific research evidence base at the time. Read more in the Face Masks article.
THE 1918 “SPANISH FLU”: ONLY THE VACCINATED DIED [By Dr. Sal Martingano, FICPA]: Spain was neutral during WW1 and did NOT censor its press, unlike the combatting countries. As a result, Spain was the first to report the 1918 Flu epidemic and the world “scapegoated” Spain as the source. Thus, the “Spanish Flu” is born. History tells us that the 1918 Spanish Flu killed between 50 – 100 million people. In the book,Vaccination Condemned, Eleanor McBean, PhD, N.D., describes, in detail, personal and family experiences during the 1918 “Spanish Flu” pandemic. McBean’s coverage requires that the historical basis of the event needs to be revisited, with evidence that will “set your hair on fire”. In preparation for WW1, a massive military vaccination experiment involving numerous prior developed vaccines took place in Fort Riley, Kansas- where the first “Spanish Flu” case was reported. Autopsies after the war proved that the 1918 flu was NOT a “FLU” at all. It was caused by random dosages of an experimental ‘bacterial meningitis vaccine’, which to this day, mimics flu-like symptoms. The massive, multiple assaults with additional vaccines on the unprepared immune systems of soldiers and civilians created a “killing field”. Those that were not vaccinated were not affected. [source]
WW1 ended sooner than expected, leaving HUGE quantities of unused experimental vaccines.
Fearing that soldiers coming home would spread diseases to their families, The U.S. government pushed the largest vaccine ‘fear’ campaign in history. They used the human population as a research and development lab to field test experimental vaccines.
Tens of millions of civilians died in the same manner as did the soldiers.
Instead of stopping the vaccines, doctors intensified them, calling it the great “Spanish Flu of 1918”. As a result, ONLY THE VACCINATED DIED. [source]
The Rosenau Experiment, 1918-1919 by Dr. Milton Rosenau: Volunteers received first one strain and then several strains of Pfeiffer bacillus by spray and swab into their noses and throats and then into their eyes. That procedure failed to produce disease. Others were inoculated with mixtures of other organisms isolated from the throats and noses of influenza patients. Next, some volunteers received injections of blood from influenza patients. Finally, 13 of the volunteers were taken into an influenza ward and exposed to 10 influenza patients each. Each volunteer was to shake hands with each patient, to talk with him at close range, and to permit him to cough directly into his face. None of the volunteers in these experiments developed influenza.
Dr. Alan Palmer writes: “More important than the pathogen is the resistance of the host: In the late 1800s and early 1900s, infectious disease ravaged the large cities here and in Europe. Small Pox, Dysentery, Cholera, Diphtheria, the Spanish Flu and even Measles were very deadly. During that time period, livestock, horses, dogs and other animals walked down the streets, defecating and urinating as they went. The cities were greatly over-crowded. There was no efficient way to dispose of human and animal waste, the air was putrid, the water unclean, the food supply providing only basic needs and most people smoked and chewed tobacco. People’s bodies were living petri dishes, crawling with pathogenic (harmful) organisms, disease causing bacteria, parasites, viruses and fungi. Their “terrain” was fertile soil, ripe for infection as their immune systems were weak and overwhelmed.”
Today we still find similar conditions and malnutrition in third world countries. For example: vitamin A deficiency is a common condition that contributes to illness, blindness, and death. In today’s “modern” world, we face different problems: pollution and contaminated processed foods weaken the immune system, and life expectancy in the US is going DOWN – that should be a warning.
“Fear is experienced in your mind, but it triggers a strong physical reaction in your body. As soon as you recognize fear, your amygdala (small organ in the middle of your brain) goes to work. It alerts your nervous system, which sets your body’s fear response into motion. Stress hormones like cortisol and adrenaline are released. Your blood pressure and heart rate increase. You start breathing faster. Even your blood flow changes — blood actually flows away from your heart and into your limbs, making it easier for you to start throwing punches, or run for your life. Your body is preparing for fight-or-flight.” [source]
24 Jan 2021: Government accused of using Covid fear tactics to inflate anxiety levels of British public: “THE government has been accused of using covert strategies to keep people in a perpetual state of heightened fear to make them obey Covid-19 restrictions.” “A group of 47 psychologists has claimed this amounts to a strategic decision “to inflate the fear levels of the British public”, which it states is “ethically murky” and has left people too afraid to leave their homes for medical appointments. Led by former NHS consultant psychologist Dr Gary Sidley, the experts have written to the British Psychological Society (BPS) claiming the strategy is “morally questionable”.” [express.co.uk]
The Telegraph reports (25 Jan): Manipulative broadcasters’ intrusive reports from hospitals are simply feeding despair The excessive use of distressing films from the frontline is terrifying already frightened people “I had to turn off the television news half a dozen times last week which, for a journalist who is obliged to stay on top of events, is quite something. I took this uncharacteristic step because I could not bear to watch, over and over again, the same film reports of appalling distress from hospital intensive care wards, some of them featuring with patients who died after being filmed…”
Quotes from The Telegraph: “inflated fear levels will be responsible for the ‘collateral’ deaths of many thousands of people with non-Covid illnesses” who are “too frightened to attend hospital”. One regular Sage attendee said: “The British people have been subjected to an unevaluated psychological experiment without being told that is what’s happening. the Government tells the public how many people have died within 28 days of a positive Covid test, but does not include the context of whether deaths are above or below the seasonal norm, and also gives daily figures for hospital admissions, but not how many people have recovered.” “Once the fear has been stoked you can’t diminish it. It’s not like turning a tap on and off – you can’t turn the fear off.
“A report by Nottingham University last year suggested that fear could even translate into additional Covid deaths because poor mental health weakens the immune system. The report said: “It is well known that when negative mood states persist over time they result in the dysregulation of physiological systems involved in the regulation of the immune system.” [Telegraph, 2 April 2021]
“As some parts of your brain are revving up, others are shutting down. When the amygdala senses fear, the cerebral cortex (area of the brain that harnesses reasoning and judgment) becomes impaired — so now it’s difficult to make good decisions or think clearly.
As a result, you might… [be] unable to rationalizethat the threat is not real. [source]
Children are made feel responsible for the painful, tortured death of their parents and grandparents if they do not follow the Corona rules and don’t stay away from their grandparents. [from ‘Crimes against humanity‘]
“For every complex problem there is an answer that is clear, simple, and wrong”H. L. Mencken
Asking people to spy on each other, on their neighbours and local businesss seeds distrust and destroys communities. Using threats triggering fear in order to manipulate people is an old political strategy, ubiquitous in today’s politics and media, labelled as “war on the virus”
“The people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders” said Nazi bigwig Hermann Goering after his conviction at Nuremberg. “That is easy. Of course, the people don’t want war,… neither in Russia nor in England nor in America, nor for that matter in Germany. That is understood.” “After all, it is the leaders of the country who determine the policy and it is always a simple matter to drag the people along, whether it is a democracy or a fascist dictatorship or a Parliament or a Communist dictatorship.” “the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is tell them they are being attacked and denounce the pacifists for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. It works the same way in any country.”
Gaslighting is a tactic in which a person or entity, in order to gain more power, making a victim question their reality. It is done slowly, so the victim doesn’t realise how much they’ve been brainwashed. Gaslighters typically use the following techniques: 1. They tell blatant lies. setting up a precedent. 2. They deny they ever said something, even though you have proof. 3. They use what is near and dear to you as ammunition. 4. They wear you down over time. 5. Their actions do not match their words. 6. They throw in positive reinforcement to confuse you. 7. They know confusion weakens people. 8. They project. (accusing you of what they are doing) 9. They try to align people against you. 10. They tell you or others that you are crazy. 11. They tell you everyone else is a liar. Details described in the article seem to match the current situation.
The UK government, supported by the media, creates a lot of fear and uncertainty through contradicting instructions which “do not seem to make any sense.” There is no political opposition or questioning of the lockdown, as a war style situation is created with help of the media who thrive in conflict situations, and the message “we are all in this together” signal: “if you don’t do what we say, you endanger the lives of all of us”
Another psychological aspect of the current situation is “The Stockholm Syndrome“, where hostages / victims begin to bond with their kidnappers / abusers, in order to save their lives. Being in a manipulative relationship can cause cognitive dissonance (“this doesn’t make sense”). This means the victim’s intuition has been damaged, and they may be confused about reality. Victims of Stockholm syndrome can become dedicated to a cause or an unspoken desire. They may over-identify with the perpetrator in a dysfunctional way in order to fulfil a personal need. This is the “hook.” A clever political strategy. How to Help People Who May Have Stockholm Syndrome
The whole political re-action to the coronavirus, fired up by the media, is steped in psychological aspects – here is another one:
Munchausen syndrome by proxy (MSP) — or Munchausen by proxy — is a psychological disorder marked by attention-seeking behavior by a caregiver through those who are in their care.
“People with MSP may create or exaggerate a child’s symptoms in several ways. They may simply lie about symptoms, alter tests (such as contaminating a urine sample), falsify medical records, or they may actually induce symptoms through various means, such as poisoning, suffocating, starving, and causing infection.”
The UK government’s chief scientific adviser has £600,000 of shares in vaccine maker contracted by the government. The government is “following scientific advice” of the SAGE committee. From 20 permanent members [as of 15 August], only five are independent. That means, 3/4 of them have ties to industries or other bias, which unavoidably has an influence on what advice they give. Below are excerpts from one SAGE report, showing psychological manipulation methods:
Document showing the SAGE committee suggesting to increase fear in the UK population
Much fear and panic was created around this new virus, contributing to stress and dis-ease. This led to the acceptance of the government’s lockdown. On March 19th, a French study “SARS-CoV-2: Fear Versus Data” was published, concluding: “There does not seem to be a significant difference between the mortality rate of SARS-CoV-2 in OECD countries and that of common coronaviruses” and: “Fear could have a larger impact than the virus itself” So the same day, the British government decided: “COVID-19 is no longer considered to be a high consequence infectious diseases (HCID) in the UK”. But four days later they ordered a lockdown and voted on a Bill, spanning a period of two years. TWO YEARS – for a seasonal virus? By the time it turned out the virus was not so dangerous, the decision makers seemed too afraid to admit this and return to normal. Due to lockdown and “flattening the curve”, we haven’t achieved the level of herd immunity yet, so some people will catch up with the virus later.
This table is from Sweden, which did not have lockdown deaths sneaking into covid-19 death statistics.
“Liberty is of small value to the lower third of humanity. They greatly prefer security, which means protection by some class above them. They are always in favor of despots who promise to feed them.” [H.L. Mencken]
The No-cebo effect of fear Just like any medication and placebo works better, when people believe in them, any virus will make people more ill when they fear it. Fear induces stress, which disables the immune system, which makes people more receptive to any infection – a self fulfilling prophecy. Fear intoxicates our common sense, and especially those who have locked themselves in have been exposed to multiple repeated slogans on all channels to be scared. Coronaviruses regularly recur in dogs, cats, pigs, mice, bats and in humans, and after all Covid-19 is part of the coronavirus family.
WHO, Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, Wellcome Trust and the U.K. government used wrong dosage and missed a main ingredient in their studies – How a False Hydroxychloroquine Narrative Was Created • The U.K. Recovery Trial— Funded in part by the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, Wellcome Trust and the U.K. government through Oxford University, this study randomly assigned patients to usual care or to one of five primary drug treatments: lopinavir-ritonavir; a corticosteroid (low-dose dexamethasone); hydroxychloroquine; tociizumab; or azithromycin. They also used convalescent plasma. Patients received 2,400 mg of hydroxychloroquine during the first 24 hours — three to six times higher than the daily dosage recommended followed by 400 mg every 12 hours for nine more day for a cumulative dose of 9,200 mg over 10 days. The trial ended its hydroxychloroquine arm on June 4, reporting “no benefit.”
• The Solidarity Trial — Launched by the World Health Organisation and funded by 43 countries and 203,000 individuals and organisations, this trial also compares standard of care against four drug options, including hydroxychloroquine, among patients in 35 countries. the Canadian and Norwegian portions of the trial lists a dosage of 2,000 mg on the first day, and a cumulative dose of 8,800 mg over 10 days. This is only 400 mg less than the U.K.32 Recovery Trial’s toxic dose. …the study was retracted for using fabricated data, (and this despite having undergone peer-review), the hydroxychloroquine arm was restarted. June 17, 2020, the hydroxychloroquine arm was stopped again, this time “based on evidence from the Solidarity trial, U.K.’s Recovery trial and a Cochrane review of other evidence on hydroxychloroquine.”
• The REMAP-CAP Trial (Randomized, Embedded, Multifactorial Adaptive Platform Trial for Community-Acquired Pneumonia)39 — Here, patients either received nothing, a combination of lopinavir and ritonavir, or hydroxychloroquine alone or in combination with lopinavir and ritonavir. REMAP used the same toxic dose as the Recovery Trial but for six days instead of 10. What’s more, only critically ill hospitalised patients were included in this trial..
By using the WRONG dose, the WHO, Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, Wellcome Trust and the UK government caused avoidable deaths.
All three trials above that used toxic hydroxychloroquine doses also failed to include zinc, which appears to be a key factor; the hydroxychloroquine is really only used to drive the zinc in to the cells. [from How a False Hydroxychloroquine Narrative Was Created]
“Corona children studies “Co-Ki”: First results of a Germany-wide registry on mouth and nose covering (mask) in children“: “By 26.10.2020 the registry had been used by 20,353 people. In this publication we report the results from the parents, who entered data on a total of 25,930 children. The average wearing time of the mask was 270 minutes per day. Impairments caused by wearing the mask were reported by 68% of the parents. These included irritability (60%), headache (53%), difficulty concentrating (50%), less happiness (49%), reluctance to go to school/kindergarten (44%), malaise (42%) impaired learning (38%) and drowsiness or fatigue (37%).“
Our children are severely affected: “Socially isolated children were at significant risk of poor adult health compared with non-isolated children… longitudinal findings showed that chronic social isolation across multiple developmental periods had a cumulative, dose-response relationship to poor adult health” https://jamanetwork.com/journals/jamapediatrics/fullarticle/205331 [Study August 2006: Socially Isolated Children 20 Years Later – Risk of Cardiovascular Disease]
Kids aren’t superspreaders, and they may even be superbarriers [ANH, 19 Nov. 2020] “in July, Swedish epidemiologist, Dr Jonas Ludvigsson from the Karolinska Institute, well and truly put the nail in the coffin of the idea that kids might be the problem, pointing to evidence that showed that is was unlikely that kids were the main driver of the pandemic.” “Now we have a new insight. Kids are not only unlikely to be superspreaders, they could actually be a significant part of the solution. It seems their exposure to the virus may create one of the most effective ways of breaking transmission cycles of SARS-CoV-2.“
“Now we have a new insight. Kids… exposure to the virus may create one of the most effective ways of breaking transmission cycles of SARS-CoV-2.”
“The latest insight comes from a very detailed case study on a single family published by a group from the Murdoch Children’s Research Institute and the University of Melbourne, led by Dr Shidan Tosif, just published in the journal Nature Communications.” “all three kids developed strong antibody responses as measured in saliva and blood plasma. Additionally, the adults developed strong and sustained T-cell responses which would have conferred long-term immunity.” “The youngest child who never had symptoms developed the strongest antibody response and that response was especially strong in the saliva. The authors of the study rightly suggest that this could mean that children can develop a very strong innate mucosal response to virus particles that land in the nose, mouth and airways that prevents the virus from gaining entry to the body and replicating. Hence the lack of evidence of replicating virus in these three children.” What can we learn? “Young kids who are exposed to the virus may be among the most effective neutralisers of the virus, so when they are in the transmission chain, they could break the transmission chain and reduce rather increase total viral loads” [end of ANH quotes]
Traumatised children from childhood, kindergarden and school will suffer psychologically and emotionally for decades to come

School children in a French school. Children are our future. What kind of future do we prepare them for?
Social distancing and isolation destroys children • Developed 70 years ago by the CIA to break down enemies of state. • It is the equivalent of smoking 15 cigarettes a day AND being an alcoholic. • It doubles the risk of death, and destroys the part of the brain responsible for learning. Who would recommend doing THAT to our children?
It looks like trouble is brewing up in the current school generation.
Politicians and some media suggest considering to vaccinate children against SARS-COV-2. Here is a new very rare study of vaccinated versus unvaccinated children (November 2020), comparing how often both groups came to see a Doctor. Dr. Rob Abbot analyses this study and asks: Can Vaccines Alter a Child’s Health Trajectory? Below is an interesting table of graphs from the study:
Figure 5. Analysis 5. Cumulative office visits in the vaccinated (orange) vs. unvaccinated (blue) patients born into the practice: the clarity of the age-specific differences in the health fates of individuals who are vaccinated (2763) compared to the 561 unvaccinated in patients born into the practice over ten years is most strikingly clear in this comparison of the cumulative numbers of diagnoses in the two patient groups. The number of office visits for the unvaccinated is adjusted by a sample size multiplier factor (4.9) to the expected value as if the number of unvaccinated in the study was the same as the number of vaccinated. mdpi.com/1660-4601/17/22/8674/htm
“Dr. Mike Yeadon says the definition of a “coronavirus death” in the U.K. is anyone who dies, from any cause, within 28 days of a positive COVID-19 test… about 1,700 people die each day in the U.K. in any given year, but many of these deaths are now falsely attributed to COVID-19… the daily death count is absolutely bang-on normal” [source, 2 December]
“Clinical practice and legislation aimed to save lives, cause-of-death reporting does not meet any basic criteria of objective fact. Across continents, from 40 years ago to present day, death certificates, which provide the basis for our beliefs as to why we die, have been found to be erroneous in their causal conclusions 20-60% of the time according to the peer-reviewed literature. The daily process of obtaining cause-of-death information, which I was an eyewitness to, is not a process of careful investigation, but rather a rushed and apathetic bureaucratic tumbling machine that incentivizes compliance over recording the complexity of truth.”
The global circulation of flu viruses 2016-2021 according to WHO has disappeared? YES: the final death count for all of 2020 shows more deaths then in the recent years. NO: it does not proove they died with or from covid-19 – or as a knock on effect from lockdown.

“Covid-19 vaccine 95% effective?” This should be exposed as fraud: 1) nearly 1 out of 5 healthy volunteers reported side effects after the 1st shot, and stronger effects after the 2nd shot. It is likely, that more of frail, old or those with underlying health conditions will suffer side effects. 2) in previous SARS vaccine animal models, they died when exposed to the wild SARS virus they were vaccinated against. That will likely happen between January and March (coronavirus season in the northern hemisphere) 3) Side effects are only recorded from two weeks after the second vaccination in the trial setup.

During the ‘Halloween horror show’ press conference used by Sir Patrick and Chief Medical Officer Professor Chris Whitty to scare the Government into implementing a second lockdown, one of their slides suggested that daily Covid-19 deaths could reach 4,000 a day by December. [graphic: Daily Mail UK 22 November]
Since the Coronavirus Bill was passed on 25 March, proper post mortem examinations are not required any more, and the real reason of death and underlying conditions may never be found out. The WHO guidelines allow using the emergency ICD-10 code “U07. COVID-19” as cause of death, if no virus was identified.www.who.int/classifications/icd/covid19/en/ This covid death count is basically useles. An Italian post morten examination found over 95% of covid-19 deaths had underlying conditions likely being the cause of death. Italian hospitals are the worst in Europe; an analysis from 2015 showed, that over 10 700 people died in Italian hospitals due to hospital acquired antibiotic resistant pathogens in one year.
There are numerous credible reports that doctors and hospitals worldwide had been paid money for declaring a deceased person a victim of covid-19 rather than writing down the true cause of death on the death certificate, for example, a heart attack or a gunshot wound. [from ‘Crimes against humanity‘]
Prominent forensic medicine professor Klaus Püschel, Hamburg, Germany, has vast experience in autopsying individuals who have died with the Chinese coronavirus: “All [COVID-19] deaths for this region, which have now passed 100, have been autopsied, and each one had serious pre-existing diseases. The average age is 80 years old.” “I think it’s really completely inappropriate when a president tells his people that we are at war, or when the German chancellor compares the situation with the last world war.”
The vast majority of UK Covid deaths have underlying conditions (green)
The UK ONS:“Where only COVID-19 was recorded on the death certificate, or COVID-19 and subsequent conditions caused by COVID-19 were recorded, we refer to these deaths as having “No pre-existing conditions”. Who decides if the conditions are subsequent or have been underlying? It is likely, that the conditions which actually caused the death, may never appear in the statistics, leaving the impression that coronavirus was the only cause of death.
Good news? In June 2020 all top 10 causes of death (blue) were lower than the 5-year average (yellow)! Isn’t it likely, that the labels of deaths just changed?
Statistics and testing: according to the WHO, the flu has nearly been eradicated?
According to WHO Influenza Laboratory Surveillance Information, it appears that there has been virtually no Flu anywhere in the world since April. The levels from week 16 to date are tiny compared to similar periods over the previous 10 years.
The Telegraph, 8 December: Office for National Statistics (ONS) data – which showed soaring coronavirus cases before the second lockdown – has been quietly revised down and now suggests that cases were largely plateauing at the time, it has emerged.
Why were Public Health England NOT counting covid recovered cases like the other countries? By this PHE definition, no one with COVID in England was allowed to ever recover from their illness. A patient who has tested positive, but successfully treated and discharged from hospital, was still counted as a COVID death even if they had a heart attack or were run over by a bus three months later.
Finally: a covid-19 death count review removed 5400 deaths from the statistic and a cut-off of 28 days is applied on 12 August 2020, reducing the covid deaths from 442 to 111 (week 18 to 24 July)
The UK government published the following blog on 12 Aug 2020 “Behind the headlines: Counting Covid-19 deaths“: The additional indicators which will be used to calculate daily death figures are:
“the number of deaths in people with COVID-19 that occur within 28 days of a first positive laboratory-confirmed test. This is intended to provide a headline indicator of the immediate impact of recent epidemic activity. Deaths that occur more than 28 days after a positive test will not be included in this count.
the number of deaths that occur within 60 days of a first positive test. Deaths that occur after 60 days will also be added to this figure if COVID-19 appears on the death certificate. This will provide a more complete measure of the burden of the disease over time.”
“We examined all 41,598 deaths in confirmed cases of COVID-19 reported up to 3 August 2020 and found that:
88% of deaths occurred within 28 days of a positive COVID-19 test and 96% occurred within 60 days or had COVID-19 on the death certificate
of those who died 29 to 60 days after their positive test, COVID-19 was included on the death certificate for 64%
2,295 (54%) of the 4,219 deaths excluded by a 28-day time limit had COVID-19 on the death certificate
overall 91% of deaths reported by PHE in confirmed cases up to 3 August had COVID-19 on the death certificate” [blog.gov.uk]
Anyone who tests positive with coronavirus und dies within 28 days, whatever the cause of death, is counted as “Covid-19 death” So there will always be some covid deaths.
THIS above news item was mostly “no news”. Normally media report misconduct, and uncover government mistakes. During this coronavirus time however it is predominantly the scare news which make it into the headlines.
One month after England, Scotland has now adjusted their covid-19 death count. The Scotish Sun was the only newspaper showing this in a headline
Covid deaths as well as test “cases” seem to have a high degree in downward adjustment – in other words: they were highly inflated to start with, and it took rather a long time to correct.
The Off-Guardian reports on 8 October: WHO (Accidentally) Confirms Covid is No More Dangerous Than Flu Head of Health Emergencies Program “best estimates” put IFR at 0.14% They believe roughly 10% of the world has been infected with Sars-Cov-2. This is their “best estimate”. The global population is roughly 7.8 billion people, if 10% have been infected that is 780 million cases. The global death toll currently attributed to Sars-Cov-2 infections is 1,061,539. That’s an infection fatality rate of roughly or 0.14%. Right in line with seasonal flu
Statistics can do anything: Playing around with death labels seems to be not unusual: No male “influenza and pneumonia male deaths” 2011-1015 (red)? No female “chronic lower respiratory diseases” (grey fields) in 2006 and from 2008 to 2011? “Dementia and Alzheimers”(light blue): are women so different to men? What surprises will we see for 2020 death labels in the UK?
official UK death statistics are full of surprises due to changing labels and definitions.
Here is an interesting example how a fact check website interprets data: fullfact.org/health/flu-covid-deaths – headline: “Flu isn’t the underlying cause of death for more people than Covid-19“ “the ONS reports the number of “deaths involving COVID-19”, which means the number of death certificates that mention Covid-19 somewhere, whether or not it was the underlying cause. The ONS also reports in the bulletin the number of “deaths in England and Wales [that] mentioned ‘Influenza and Pneumonia’”. Again, they didn’t have to be the underlying cause of death. This matters, because “when Covid-19 is mentioned on a death certificate, it is much more likely to be the underlying cause of someone’s death than when pneumonia or influenza is.“ [THIS is the point of clear manipulation without proof nor logic] “Up to the end of June 2020 in England and Wales, Covid-19 was the underlying cause of death on about 93% of the death certificates that mentioned it.” [Now this is VERY questionable. In reality it is the other way around, that 95% of people WITH covid-19 have underlying conditions – see above, so the covid deaths number should be divided by 20 to get a realistic picture] “a death counted in the “Influenza and pneumonia” category could be someone who died after having pneumonia, or after having flu, or after having both.” Pneumonia is usually caused by a bacterial infection, but it can also be caused by a virus such as flu or the one that causes Covid-19. It’s worth noting that many people who die with Covid-19 have pneumonia as well, so the ONS explains that “deaths where both were mentioned have been counted only in the COVID-19 category”. [WHY is covid-19 overriding pneumonia and the flu in the death statistic without explanation? That shows, that only SOME of the covid deaths are CAUSED by covid, so the covid death number needs to be reduced, and the pneumonia number needs to be increased accordingly.] From the 26,342 who died from either influenza or pneumonia in 2019, only 4.6% died from flu – and 95,4% died from pneumonia. A good reminder, that flu is REALLY not that dangerous – it is pneumonia which kills 19 out of 20 people in the flu/pneumonia category. THANK YOU for reminding us that flu is MUCH less dangerous than the flu vaccine pushers want us to believe. The Office for National Statistics has begun to include a note on its weekly deaths data, which says: “Figures for Influenza and Pneumonia represent where either of these causes have been mentioned anywhere on the death certificate meaning they will not necessarily be the underlying cause of death.” Hopefully people will stay away from the flu vaccine this year, which needs 71 vaccinated people to avoid ONE case of flu.

“Covid-19: The Data Exposing the Deception“[by UK Column, 11 Oct]: “When influenza, pneumonia and Covid-19 are on a Medical Certificate Cause of Death (MCCD) together, without a postmortem, it is ridiculous to suggest that nearly 96% of these deaths (18,642) must be Covid-19 deaths. The reason that they are reported as such has nothing to do with medical scienceand everything to do with the death registration system, created by the UK government, specifically for Covid-19.” “for public sector workers who regularly interact with the public in the community, such as police officers, fire officers, park attendants and so forth, mortality was zero.“ [source of this investigation]

Exposing our skin to soap and gels, shampoos, deodorants and perfumes results in most of the ingredients being absorbed into the body. Some of the ingredients may have unwanted side effects – they also remove the protective fat layer on the skin (including sunshine induced vitamin D) and lead to the skin being more vulnerable to infections. It is recommended to reduce soap and gels on the skin.

Since 2015, WAAW has been focusing on awareness-raising and education towards the responsible and prudent use of the antimicrobials. Previously World Antibiotic Awareness Week, the name was changed this year to World Antimicrobial Awareness Week to reflect the breadth of the initiative. Antimicrobials include antibiotic, antiviral, antifungal and antiprotozoal agents, which are critical tools for treating diseases in humans, animals and plants. WAAW is particularly important this year as the COVID-19 crisis is increasing the misuse and overuse of antimicrobials, including antibiotics. Unless something is done, this could worsen the growing, long-term problems of antimicrobial resistance (AMR). AMR is a global crisis. There is no time to wait. Everyone has a role to play in preserving the effectiveness of antimicrobials… Human and animal health agencies, the environment and food sectors, as well as civil society must unite efforts to preserve antimicrobial efficacy through a multisectoral One Health approach. The AMR crisis applies to everyone. So, let us act for the sake of all humanity.”
Coronavirus Disinfectants May Be Extremely Hazardous to Health: Toxic chemicals now being used are causing unprecedented levels of exposure with unknown consequences to human health. studies on many of the chemicals have been linked to asthma and other respiratory conditions, reproductive effects and neurological and dermatological problems.[v] Exposure to disinfectants and cleaning products has long been linked to health risks. Among nurses, for instance, exposure to cleaning chemicals at work was associated with a 25% to 38% increased risk of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. Research published in the American Journal of Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine also found that women responsible for cleaning at home, or who worked as house cleaners, had accelerated declines in lung function, and long-term respiratory health was impaired 10 to 20 years after cleaning activities.[vii] Damage to respiratory function for women cleaners was similar to smoking a pack of cigarettes every day for 10 to 20 years. Spraying the chemicals poses increased inhalation risks, as it generates micro-particles and possibly even smaller nanoparticles, which are absorbed into the body faster and in greater quantities than larger particles. The WHO warned, “In indoor spaces, routine application of disinfectants to surfaces via spraying is not recommended for COVID-19“. Aggressive disinfection procedures being implemented in the name of COVID-19 could end up causing far more harm than good. [source]

Scientists warn that making deep-cleaning a priority is not going to have a significant impact on the spread of the virus, as surface transmission appears to be minimal in the first place. In a study in which the authors tried to mimic actual conditions in which a surface might be contaminated by a patient, no viable SARS-CoV was detected on surfaces. Fogging students, as proposed in England, is both unwarranted and unwise. Since the COVID-19 pandemic began, poisonings related to cleaning solutions have also risen by as much as 20%. Soap and water is likely one of the best alternative strategies here, as the soap will effectively inactivate viruses.
Negative effects of social isolation and distancing on the immune system have not been considered.

Professor Hendrik Streeck, virologist from the University of Bonn, is leading a study on Heinsberg, “Germany’s Wuhan” with a high number of “cases” and a low number of deaths. Most cases originate from people being together for an extended period of time, and not from touching surfaces with viruses on them. He believes there is little chance to be infected from surfaces like a door knob. “it would be necessary that someone coughs into their hand, immediately touches a doorknob, and then straight after that another person grasps the handle and goes on to touch their face” Streeck’s, study found that: “There is no significant risk of catching the disease when you go shopping. Severe outbreaks of the infection were always a result of people being closer together over a longer period of time.”

Is it possible, that by the time the Covid-19 vaccine was rolled out (December 2020), the actual virus has become insignificant and not virulent any more, and the majority of the population has already gained natural immunity? Here are some graphs about the timing of vaccine introduction:
An old strategy: when it is all over, a vaccine is introduced, and we are told the vaccine “eradicated” the disease.
The same question can be asked about the timing of the introduction of face masks in the UK:
In summer 2020, after public transport, facemasks were made mandatory in shops. Next year the government might claim “wearing face masks prevented the second wave.” Graphic: NHS England
In the last 40 years alone the UK has had seven official epidemics /pandemics; AIDS, Swine flu, CJD, SARS, MERS, Bird fluas well as annual, seasonal flu. All were very worrying but schools remained open and the NHS treated everybody and most of the population were unaffected.
A new peer reviewed study “ASSESSING MANDATORY STAY-AT-HOME AND BUSINESS CLOSURE EFFECTS ON THE SPREAD OF COVID-19” from 5 January 2021 by Stanford researchers has found that mandatory lockdowns do not provide more benefits to stopping the spread of COVID-19 than voluntary measures such as social distancing.
Are we winning the war against the virus? What price are we paying?
Compared to other causes of death and previous pandemics, coronavirus-19 should more be compared to a seasonal flu. World wide, 1 person in every 50,000 died of coronavirus. Cardiovascular disease kills about 46,575 people each day. Heart disease has killed more people in the last 4 days than COVID-19 has killed in the last 4 months…
This table puts Coronavirus daily deaths into perspective. Keep in mind, that the numbers are based on PCR tests and may include false positives, “suspected” cases, and those dying from underlying conditions. By now we have MANY treatments for covid-19, and observations form other countries round the world clearly show, that despite a rise in “cases”, deaths do not rise any more
“This is not Ebola. It’s not SARS. It’s politics playing medicine and that’s avery dangerous game. There is no action of any kind needed other than what happened last year when we felt unwell. We stayed home, we took chicken noodle soup, we didn’t visit granny, and we decided when we would return to work. We didn’t need anyone to tell us.” “There is utterly unfounded public hysteria driven by the media and politicians. It’s outrageous. This is the greatest hoax ever perpetrated on an unsuspecting public. There is absolutely nothing that can be done to contain this virus. Other than protecting older, more vulnerable people. It should be thought of as nothing more than a bad flu season.” [Dr. Roger Hodkinson 23 Nov. – full audio is HERE]

Computers are taking over our lives in the name of “Health”. We are all connected – but our life quality suffers. Big Brother is watching you. Freedom in isolation? The “new abnormal” is eroding our society as a well balanced interconnected system of people, groups, clubs, businesses, organisations, and public institutions – a complex network of interwoven connections. We humans are social animals and need each other’s company.
futurism.com reports: “On Monday 12 October, iconic rock band ‘The Flaming Lips’ held a concert in Oklahoma City where everyone — audience and performers included — was sealed in their own plastic bubble.” Is this the ‘New Normal’?
In Aldous Huxley’s ‘Brave New World’, no Big Brother is required to deprive people of their autonomy, maturity and history. People will come to love their oppression, to love the technologies that undo their capacities to think. Huxley feared was that there would be no reason to ban a book, for there would be no one who wanted to read one. Huxley feared those who would give us so much information, that we would be reduced to passivity and egoism, and the truth would be drowned in a sea of irrelevance. As Huxley remarked in Brave New World Revisited, the civil libertarians and rationalists who are ever on the alert to oppose tyranny “failed to take into account man’s almost infinite appetite for distractions.” In 1984, George Orwell added, people are controlled by inflicting pain. In Brave New World, people are controlled by inflicting pleasure. In short: what we desire will ruin us.

CNN writes on 1 Sept 2020 about Past vaccine disasters… On April 12, 1955 the government announced the first vaccine to protect kids against polio. Within days, labs had made thousands of lots of the vaccine. Batches made by one company, Cutter Labs, accidentally contained live polio virus and it caused an outbreak. More than 200,000 children got the polio vaccine, but within days the government had to abandon the program. Forty thousand kids got polio. Some had low levels, a couple hundred were left with paralysis, and about 10 died.
CNN continues: in 1976, scientists predicted a pandemic of a new strain of influenza called swine flu. More than 40 years later, some historians call it “flu epidemic that never was.” President Ford was basically told by his advisers, that “look, we have a pandemic flu coming called swine flu that may be as bad as Spanish flu.” Ford was being cajoled to put forward a vaccine that was hastily put together. The government launched the program in about seven months and 40 million people got vaccinated against swine flu, according to the CDC. That vaccination campaign was later linked to cases of a neurological disorder called Guillain-Barre syndrome. There were a few hundred cases of Guillain-Barre.
The definition of a pandemic was changed in 2008. Until then, a pandemic was considered to be a disease that spread worldwide and which led to many serious illnesses and deaths. Suddenly, and for reasons never explained, it was supposed to be a worldwide disease only. Due to this change, the WHO, which is closely intertwined with the global pharmaceutical industry, was able to declare the swine flu pandemic in 2009.
The Swine Flu vaccines proved to be completely unnecessary. as it turned out to be a mild flu and never became the horrific plague that the pharmaceutical industry and its affiliated universities kept announcing it would turn into. These vaccines also led to serious health problems. About 700 children in Europe fell incurably ill with narcolepsy and are now forever severely disabled. [from “Crimes against humanity“]
In 2011 in a split decision in Bruesewitz v. Wyeth, the US Supreme Court majority ruled that vaccines are “unavoidably unsafe” and effectively removed all liability from drug companies, even if there was evidence a drug company could have made a vaccine safer. [CNN]:

The Emperor’s New Clothes – the plot: Two swindlers arrive at the capital city of an emperor who spends lavishly on clothing at the expense of state matters. Posing as weavers, they offer to supply him with magnificent clothes that are invisible to those who are stupid or incompetent. The emperor hires them, and they set up looms and go to work. A succession of officials, and then the emperor himself, visit them to check their progress. Each sees that the looms are empty but pretends otherwise to avoid being thought a fool. Finally, the weavers report that the emperor’s suit is finished. They mime dressing him and he sets off in a procession before the whole city. The townsfolk uncomfortably go along with the pretense, not wanting to appear inept or stupid, until a child blurts out that the emperor is wearing nothing at all. The people then realize that everyone has been fooled. Although startled, the emperor continues the procession, walking more proudly than ever.

It is complicated. In times when people face existential threats (losing their health, work, or even their own life), government announcements “don’t make any sense” and conspiracy theories are abundant – and it is difficult to figure out what are news, fake or biased news, and what news we never hear about. Confusion and uncertainty spread and make it difficult to think clearly and to see the situation objectively.
Journalist Roberto Saviano, who has dedicated his career to exposing the Italian mafia, claims that Britain is the most corrupt country on Earth – not exactly a compliment… 90 per cent of the owners of capital in London have their headquarters offshore. Where there is a lot of money, there is also a lot of influence and lobbying. The British government and politicians have frequently tried to hide misconduct, and were often caught serving their own interests rather than that of the people.
Just like the oil industry has been influencing science and media for years through financing research and studies, which unsurprisingly found that human energy consumption and pollution have no major influence in climate change, the pharmaceutical industry has and is using their influence in science, the media and in politics for their advantage.
Following the money explains a lot. Foundations and Trusts are used to avoid paying tax; funding universities and scientific research institutions avoids paying tax; advertising in newspapers and TV will be written off as expenses – internationally. Nothing new so far.
What seems to have happened: our government – and others – were lured into “wouldn’t it be good to be prepared for a possible deadly pandemic?“ On the 18th of October 2019 a pandemic tabletop exercise Event 201 simulating a “series of dramatic, scenario-based facilitated discussions, true-to-life dilemmas associated with response to a hypothetical, but scientifically plausible, pandemic.” was held in New York. Of course it’s good to be prepared – so they adopted emergency procedures for the worst case scenario. And when the emergency procedures had been prepared, coronavirus-19 came. The government is influenced by media, corporate interests and corporate science with their agendas. And some company made more profit than ever during lockdown, first of all Amazon. From their point of view lockdown is brilliant.
Either the UK government was naive – or incompetent – or they might have had sinister plans, when they decided to pass the Coronavirus Bill in March. They choose to appoint biased scientific advisers on the SAGE committee (consisting of five independent, and 15 not independent members).
Insiders of the banking sector have predicted a crash of the global economies for 2020, as they are not sustainable any more. Might it be too far off to suspect that politicians feel tempted to use the virus as a culprit, and use their emergency legislation for the expected civil unrest after a financial crash?
The virus spread projections and deaths were scaringly high and massively exaggerated by scientists working for institutions or companies who always need research funds and grants. Dramatizing possible virus threats will result in money coming in. Scientists calling for no action, or suggesting to “let the virus run it’s course” are endangering their job and their research department’s budget. This may explain, why relatively few, mostly retired scientists oppose the official narrative.
Most of the main stream media are directly or indirectly influenced by advertisement revenue or somehow biased by being part of a big international profit orientated investors. For example, the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation has been funding the BBC nearly every year, last in 2019:
The Guardian received $5,686,494 in 2011, $550,000 in 2016, $2,893,865 in 2017 and $150,000 in 2018 from the B&M Gates Foundation. No articles criticising vaccine safety were published in the last 10 years.
Here is a detailed investigative film about corporate influence in politics, science, media & medicine from 18 August 2020: “INDOCTORNATION”: we.tl/t-zaQKHTYOez
And here is a documentary showing “the bigger picture”, what’s going on at the moment apart from covid-19 – recommended watching: wake-up-call-what-is-happening – January 2021
There are many critical voices disputing the lockdown, the emergency legislation and the covid-19 procedures imposed by officials (some are quoted on this web site above); they are often retired (without fear of losing their job) or work independently. In the UK government’s advisory group SAGE only five out of 20 members are independent; what advice can we expect?

Powerful editorial in the British Medical Journal Fri 13 Nov, by Kamran Abbasi, executive editor: bmj.com/content/371/bmj.m4425 “Science is being suppressed for political and financial gain. Covid-19 has unleashed state corruption on a grand scale, and it is harmful to public health. Politicians and industry are responsible for this opportunistic embezzlement. So too are scientists and health experts. The pandemic has revealed how the medical-political complex can be manipulated in an emergency—a time when it is even more important to safeguard science…..” “Politicians and governments are suppressing science. They do so in the public interest, they say, to accelerate availability of diagnostics and treatments. They do so to support innovation, to bring products to market at unprecedented speed. Both of these reasons are partly plausible; the greatest deceptions are founded in a grain of truth. But the underlying behaviour is troubling…” “The UK’s pandemic response relies too heavily on scientists and other government appointees with worrying competing interests, including shareholdings in companies that manufacture covid-19 diagnostic tests, treatments, and vaccines. Government appointees are able to ignore or cherry pick science—another form of misuse—and indulge in anti-competitive practices that favour their own products and those of friends and associates…” “When good science is suppressed, people die.”

External peer review of the RTPCR test to detect SARS-CoV-2 reveals 10 major scientific flaws at the molecular and methodological level: consequences for false positive results cormandrostenreview.com/report/
The COVID-19 (= SARS-CoV-2) situation in early 2020 was based on the following assumptions:
we have a new and more dangerous virus than other coronaviruses
we don’t know how fast and wide the virus spreads, when it will peak, and if and when it might naturally disappear
currently there is no treatment
as long as “we don’t know”, we should be rather safe than sorry and prepare for, and prevent the worst case scenario.
The good news is: NOW we KNOW.
COVID-19 (= SARS-CoV-2) causes a cytokine storm (or Cytokine release syndrome of overzealous immune responses, that generate so much cytokine secretion (hypercytokinesis), that it spills over into the lungs. The problem is the dysfunctional immune system, triggered by the virus.
For the first time, a French study “Fear Versus Data“ (published 19 March)has examined coronavirus COVID-19 (= SARS-CoV-2) and found it is not more dangerous than other common coronaviruses. “It is concluded that the problem of SARS-CoV-2 is probably being overestimated, as 2.6 million people die of respiratory infections each year compared with less than 4000 deaths for SARS-CoV-2 at the time of writing.” “There does not seem to be a significant difference between the mortality rate of SARS-CoV-2 in OECD countries and that of common coronaviruses” “Under these conditions, and all other things being equal, SARS-CoV-2 infection cannot be described as being statistically more severe than infection with other coronaviruses in common circulation.” “There is little chance that the emergence of SARS-CoV-2 could change this statistic significantly. Fear could have a larger impact than the virus itself; a case of suicide motivated by the fear of SARS-COV-2 has been reported in India” [from “Fear Versus Data”]
We do know, that coronaviruses in the US and Englandappear every year around December to March, and phase out around April.
From July 2014-June 2017 the US National Respiratory and Enteric Virus Surveillance System (NREVSS) reviewed real-time reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (rRT-PCR) test results for four coronaviruses: HCoV-OC43, -229E, -NL63 and -HKU1. 117 laboratories reported 854,575 HCoV tests.
“The percentage of positive tests peaked during December – March each year. 2.2% were positive for HCoV-OC43, 1.0% for HCoV-NL63, 0.8% for HCoV-229E, and 0.6% for HCoV-HKU1.”
“We analyzed diagnostic data from 44,230 cases of respiratory illness that were tested for 11 taxonomically broad groups of respiratory viruses over 9 y… including CoV = human coronaviruses (229E, NL63, HKU1)”
Why did the UK Heath Minister repeatedly claim “There is no treatment for coronavirus”?
There is a multitude of evidence, thatvitamin C successfully fights viral infections with very rare side effects: on March the 4th, the Chinese Journal of Infectious Disease, hosted by the Medical Association of Shanghai, published “The expertise consensus regarding the total treatment of coronavirus in Shanghai 2019”. This document is of extraordinary importance, as it concentrates the Chinese experience in combating the virus: Antiviral treatment: “You can try hydroxychloroquine sulfate or chloroquine phosphate, or Abidol for oral administration, interferon nebulization and inhalation” Treatment of light and ordinary patients: “Heparin anticoagulation and high-dose vitamin C are recommended… Vitamin C is administered at a dose of 50 to 100 mg / kg body weight per day… In the event of a “cytokine storm”, intermittent short veno-venuous hemofiltration (ISVVH) is recommended.” Treatment for severe and critically ill patients: “6. Prevention and treatment of cytokine storm: It is recommended to use large doses of vitamin C and unfractionated heparin. Large doses of vitamin C are injected intravenously at a dose of 100 to 200 mg / kg per day.” “The combination of traditional Chinese and western medicine for the treatment of new coronavirus pneumonia can improve the synergistic effect.”
The NHS and NICE only mention vitamin C use for scurvy, and declare: “Claims that vitamin C ameliorates colds or promotes wound healing have not been proven.” Wikipedia states “Vitamin C is a water-soluble vitamin,[22] … exhibits remarkably low acute toxicity.[5] More than two to three grams may cause indigestion, particularly when taken on an empty stomach.”
Indian Authorities Propose Use of Homeopathy The Scientist Magazine reports on the 7th February: “The Indian government’s Ministry of AYUSH, which promotes alternative medicine systems in the country, released a health advisory on January 29 that advocates the use of homeopathy and traditional remedies, such as Indian systems of medicine, to ward off infections of the newly circulating 2019-nCoV coronavirus. This includes the use of a homeopathic preparation called Arsenicum album 30C and two drops of sesame oil in each nostril each morning for prevention, and Unani medicines (treatments based on the teachings of Hippocrates and Galen) to mitigate symptoms of coronavirus infection.“
New Coronavirus: All Eyes On India specifies: “It has recommended one dose of Arsenicum album 30, daily in empty stomach for three days. The dose should be repeated after one month by following the same schedule in case Coronavirus infections prevail in the community.”
Can Chinese Medicine Be Used for Prevention of Corona Virus Disease? A Review of Historical Classics, Research Evidence and Current Prevention Programs from 17 Februry states: “The infection rate of H1N1 influenza in the CM group was significantly lower than the non-CM group.” “The most frequently used herbs included Radix astragali (Huangqi), Radix glycyrrhizae (Gancao), Radix saposhnikoviae (Fangfeng), Rhizoma Atractylodis Macrocephalae (Baizhu), Lonicerae Japonicae Flos (Jinyinhua), and Fructus forsythia (Lianqiao).“ Conclusions: Based on historical records and human evidence of SARS and H1N1 influenza prevention, Chinese herbal formula could be an alternative approach for prevention of COVID-19 in high-risk population.”
As homeopathy usually has no side effects, the only criticism is, that using homeopathy might prevent people from getting a “proper” treatment. As health officials claim “there is no treatment for coronavirus”, this risk is clearly not existant.
The above scientific evidence from March 2020 shows, that COVID-19 / SARS-CoV-2 is not more dangerous than the usual yearly coronaviruses, and that coronaviruses disappear naturally around April. We do have some safe, affordable and recommended treatments if needed. Why do we bring down our society and economy and tell people to self isolate?
Here is an example: a patient dies from a heart attack after a medical error (Iatrogenic injury). The underlying condition was obesity. A post mortem test finds the presence of a coronavirus. What will be written in the death certificate? A positive virus test result does not prove causality. Most people die WITH the virus due to underlying conditions, including old age, but not BECAUSE of it.
On 25 February 2020 these numbers show: there was no reason for government overreaction
We also need to consider, that while the media frequently publish dramatic cases, death usually happens quietly, unreported, and in much higher numbers due to other causes.
New WHO guidelines (from 5 April 2020) show, that under it’s new emergency ICD-10 code “U07. COVID-19, virus not identified,” the case will be “used for mortality coding as cause of death” even where “laboratory confirmation is inconclusive or not available“:
Health authorities like the WHO have got it very wrong in the past: In 2005, David Nabarro, one of the most senior public health experts at the World Health Organisation, said the “range of deaths could be anything between five and 150 million” – and Neil Ferguson, professor of mathematical biology at Imperial College London, said “200 million people could die from bird flu.” The final global death toll from 2003 to 2009 was only 292, and no confirmed human deaths in the West from the avian flu.
Learning from the past? ABC News Friday 11 June 2010: Was the swine flu a fake pandemic? It’s a year since the World Health Organization (WHO) officially declared a global pandemic of swine flu, triggering health emergencies across the planet. But instead of accolades, the WHO and authorities everywhere are facing an avalanche of disturbing questions about the handling of the swine flu, and the influence of vested interests. To put the key question most crudely: was the world wrongly persuaded to believe it was in the grip of a ghastly and severe pandemic by decision-making bodies unduly influenced by pharmaceutical companies hoping to sell billions of dollars worth of vaccines and anti-viral drugs? A report just out from the Council of Europe has come to some devastating conclusions. The declaration of a pandemic lead to a “waste of huge sums of public money”, a “distortion of priorities” in public health services, the “provocation of unjustified fear” and the “creation of health risks through vaccines and medications” that may not have been sufficiently tested
The price for social isolation and lockdown: “There is a growing body of scientific research demonstrating that social isolation has significant adverse health impacts on both the psychological and physiological health and well-being of individuals, as represented by the following 13 studies which show significant increases in mortality” “More diverse social networks were associated with greater resistance to upper respiratory illness.” “Separation from loved ones, the loss of freedom, uncertainty over disease status, and boredom can, on occasion, create dramatic effects. Suicide has been reported, substantial anger generated, and lawsuits brought following the imposition of quarantine in previous outbreaks.”
The UK government based their lockdown decisions on models and predictions, and then claims we need to “prove” coronavirus is not dangerous any more. The legal approach of “In dubio pro reo” (“in case of doubt for the defendant”) should be applied for coronavirus. We cannot wait, until science has proven it is not dangerous (which mostly results in “more studies and more tests are needed”). Unless it is properly PROVEN the virus is dangerous way beyond normal, we need to get on with business as usual.
The new coronavirus may already have infected far more people in the UK than scientists had previously estimated — perhaps as much as half the population — according to modelling by researchers at the University of Oxford.If the results are confirmed, they imply that fewer than one in a thousand of those infected with Covid-19 become ill enough to need hospital treatment, said Sunetra Gupta, professor of theoretical epidemiology, who led the study. The vast majority develop very mild symptoms or none at all. “We need immediately to begin large-scale serological surveys — antibody testing — to assess what stage of the epidemic we are in now,” she said. The modelling by Oxford’s Evolutionary Ecology of Infectious Disease group from March 2020indicates that Covid-19 reached the UK by mid-January at the latest.
The Oxford study is based on what is known as a SIR “susceptibility-infected-recovered model” of Covid-19, built up from case and death reports from the UK and Italy. It takes into account, that the population is not homogeneous regarding how many contacts each individual has. The researchers made what they regard as the most plausible assumptions about the behaviour of the virus. The modelling brings back into focus “herd immunity”, the idea that the virus will stop spreading when enough people have become resistant to it because they have already been infected.
The herd immunity model was developed on natural immunity. [image: USA Today]
