In U.K. our all causes mortality has sunk back to normal. Now, I don’t believe for a moment that lockdowns have been the cause. It’s massed population immunity. I know I called it prematurely last autumn but I’m not ready to completely concede that we were not near herd immunity. And I think we’re there now. My estimate of % of population who’ve been infected is now mainstream with CDC in the US stating around 25%. Evidence continues to emerge that 20-50% of us had some prior immunity. The youngest are effectively resistant to infection & transmission. Simple arithmetic doesn’t leave enough susceptible people to again have an epidemic at scale in already heavily hit regions.
We also know masks are just lies.
So the event is over.
We’ve been deliberately whipped into a MASS PANIC & relentlessly administered fear for a year.
Well, I’m not frightened & I’m not going away.

Thanks. I’m tired & not feeling well but most of all, I’m furious.
I can’t tell you how disappointed I am at my profession. So few are willing to even describe at a high level how immunity to viruses is accomplished. Why not?
I’m sorry but it’s a moral failure, sheer self serving cowardice.
Many of our best immunologists are university researchers & professors. Some I’ve spoken with agree with my basic analysis. It’s not even particularly advanced immunology. I’m a bit of a hoarder of biological scientific knowledge, because I’ve had a passion for it since I was a child.
I’ve also never been able to tolerate injustice, lying & bullying. It’s a red rag to a bull with me.

Hello everyone! Alive & kicking. I don’t have my own channel but o am still doing what I can to keep science honest.
Here’s my take on vaccination. I don’t think there’s a more important time to think, be still, anticipate where your near term decisions will lead us.

Here’s my take on vaccination:
1. Healthy people under 60 are at a very low risk from the virus. If you didn’t seek a flu vaccine then you definitely don’t need this vaccine because flu risk is greater than covid risk for the under-70s.
2. I do not believe for one minute that vaccination will result in our freedoms being returned. The whole coercive act around forcing people who won’t benefit to get vaccinated is to get digital ID on everyone. The way to oppose evil is to exert your rights & say “No, thanks”. Not to go along with it. That way lies permanent purgatory because what’s next? A top up against variants? You’ll be made to take every vaccine the authorities dictate.
3. Some tourist dependent countries want tourists so badly they will admit them without vaccination. Help them by going there. This pressure succeeds or it fails. It won’t take years. We have to win or it’ll be forced into our children.
4. Consider younger people. They’re not at a measurable risk. Taking a vaccine helps them not at all, but it adds risk for adverse effects in the mid to long term. No one can tell us what that risk is because the technology is new & the data simply doesn’t exist. Because they’re different from anything we’ve done before, it’s irresponsible to be rolling out vaccines except to those at clearly elevated risk if infected.
5. Why are medical professionals silent? Why are all institutions supine? I don’t know, but it’s frightening.

Virtually no one in the construction trades have died either. They’ve continued just as every other year to interact in large networks & they can smell the BS. My son in law is among them & reports people are ready to move to massed civil disobedience.

There I am in agreement with Vanden Bossche!
Those not at obviously elevated risk of severe outcomes including death should not even be offered these experimental treatments.

I endorse his conclusions though I have a different perspective on the immunology.
He’s probably right that massed vaccination is the wrong strategy & I thank him for providing a new rationale.

Just a reminder: "Covid19 cases" graphs and numbers do not reflect true cases, they reflect the cycle threshold at which a RT-PCR calls a positive. It should be 24 but the WHO linked directives on various protocols called it at 35, 40 or even 45. The WHO, in correspondence with Biden's inauguration and the vaccine roll-out decided to issue a directive effectively telling all labs to reduce the cycle thresholds at which a positive is called: WHO. 13th January 2021
One full year into this pandemic:

"MANUAL ADJUSTMENT of the PCR positivity threshold is RECOMMENDED. 👉The cycle threshold (Ct) needed to detect virus is inversely proportional to the patient’s viral load👈."

You are all Russian agents but you just don't know it:

"Russian agents have mounted a sophisticated disinformation campaign in the US to exploit fears over coronavirus vaccines and play up their side effects, officials have warned."

WHO issued directive, 13th, then updated 20th January 2021

It’s a short but powerful reminder that mass testing per Blair’s ignorant Moonshot, is utterly impractical, even if it had value.

Tests using over-sensitive, imprecisely matching PCR primers & probes, are capable of such manipulation and/or error that, as deployed, they are worse than useless.

Was this the goal all along?

“Suddenly, Black and Latinx Americans might not just see themselves being excluded from vaccine queues, but from nearly every aspect of public life,” he added. “And at a time when one in five Americans lack a smartphone, and many others use devices too old to support such an app, we would likely see millions.. wrongfully blocked from public spaces.”

UK Gov revised advice to care home staff.

KARL POPPER: "No rational argument will have a rational effect on a man who does not want to adopt a rational attitude.

Those who promise us paradise on earth never produced anything but a hell.

Philosophers should consider the fact that the greatest happiness principle can easily be made an excuse for a benevolent dictatorship.

There is an almost universal tendency, perhaps an inborn tendency, to suspect the good faith of a man who holds opinions that differ from our own opinions.

In so far as a scientific statement speaks about reality, it must be falsifiable; and in so far as it is not falsifiable, it does not speak about reality.

Piecemeal social engineering resembles physical engineering in regarding the ends as beyond the province of technology.

KARL POPPER: "We must plan for freedom, and not only for security, if for no other reason than that only freedom can make security secure.

It is wrong to think that belief in freedom always leads to victory; we must always be prepared for it to lead to defeat. If we choose freedom, then we must be prepared to perish along with it.

I’m ready to perish rather than to bow down!
No point otherwise.
