Doctors say ‘No’, politicians say ‘Go’. Stop the 5-to-11s ‘offer’

The Daily Sceptic have also published it, but we feel this of the utmost importance and needs to be given the attention it deserves. Authors: Dr Zenobia Storah, […]
We need to talk about behavioural science…
The Government’s use of behavioural-science – particularly ‘nudges’ that use fear inflation, shaming and peer pressure to increase people’s compliance with the state’s agenda – has evoked major concerns in relation to both the ethics and the collateral damage.
First tranche of missing vaccine deaths found
Thousands of deaths in the vaccinated missing from ONS data Over 2,000 deaths in the vaccinated had been miscategorised as unvaccinated in the ONS deaths by vaccination status reports.

Lest We Forget
Not being a daily publication, we did not have the ‘pleasure’ of writing on the two year anniversary of that now most inauspicious of dates, 23 March 2020.

Hospital restrictions remain absurd and cruel

Are school premises suitable for vaccinations?
In a classic example of social media getting itself wrongly into a lather, a letter from a clinical director at Vaccination UK, addressed to ‘Dear Headteacher’ did the rounds, along with inappropriate invective.
How to measure vaccine harms
Drug harm reporting systems, like the MHRA’s yellow card system, are designed to alert the regulator to a potential issue. They are not designed to measure the size of the problem. If an issue is highlighted then the regulator has a responsibility to carry out an audit and see whether the incidence of the condition of concern has been higher than historical levels in the population who were vaccinated.
