The Covid Inquiry: Further insights into the murky world of Behavioural Science
Although the ongoing Covid-19 Inquiry increasingly resembles an expensive pantomime designed to support the dominant lockdown-and-jab pandemic narrative, scrutiny of the extensive witness transcripts can be informative as to the actions of key actors. Such is the case with the behavioural scientists, in particular those operating within the Scientific Pandemic Insights Group on Behaviours (SPI-B) – a subgroup of SAGE that advised the Government on its Covid-19 communications strategy.
Dictating to a virus
The recent announcement by Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, the Director-General of the World Health Organization (WHO), declaring the covid pandemic over, highlights the absurdity of bureaucratic regimes dictating when we should be scared or not scared of an endemic virus.
COVID-19: The Evidence revisited – summer 2022
It is now two and a half years since the first lockdown and eighteen months since HART published its paper COVID-19: an overview of the evidence. Over the last few months, we asked all the original authors to go back and review their articles and update with relevant publications, revising their conclusions as appropriate. These chapters spelled out either evidence of harms from the pandemic policies or theoretical concerns.
Covid-19: The Evidence Now Part 6
This week’s instalment revisits the dire mental health implications of the Government’s covid response.
ront and centre (which is where children should have been in 2020) we have Covid policies and harms to children by Clinical Psychologist Dr Zenobia Storah and Retired Consultant Paediatrician Dr Ros.
Covid-19 : The Evidence Now PART 3
Last week we published Part 2 of our evidence updates, focusing on ethics, masks and elderly care. This week, we take another detailed look at the collateral damage caused by lockdowns and rather topically have reworked the piece on covid vaccines for children.
Covid above all else
The Government’s enthusiasm for Plan B had been noted back in September, but the successful relaxation of restrictions in the summer had left it woefully short of triggers for its authoritarian tendencies.
Government review of care home winter plan based on terrible error or deliberate lie about successes last year
Government has published a winter plan for care homes with plans for interventions for this winter in care homes including ipads as a proposal to replace human contact. The entire document is based on the premise that interventions in winter prevented deaths in care homes based on claims made in a review of last year’s winter plan. No data supports this notion. The Government report is either based on a terrible error or a deliberate lie.
Should children be vaccinated against COVID-19?
HART would contest that it is unethical to ask children to take a vaccine to boost herd immunity or to offset political decisions such as school closures, at a stage when the drug trials have still to be completed. Policy makers would do well to re-read the Universal Declaration on Bioethics and Human Rights and to follow the authors’ guidance to ‘weigh up the risks and benefits with caution and to proceed with care’.
To B or Not To B
Was ‘Plan B’ always in fact, ‘Plan A’?
Women’s reproductive concerns are brushed aside
Women’s concerns around menstruation were brushed aside and only in the last month has money been promised for a clinical trial to investigate how long it takes teenagers with disturbed menstruation to return to normal after vaccination.
Continuation of the Coronavirus Act
To cap it all, the Coronavirus Act 2020 was continued for a further 6 months, on the basis of a 90 minute debate and no division lobby.
COVID risks in pregnant women
When deaths and cases are not frightening enough the media turn, as they did last year, to pregnant women to promote fear.
The ongoing impact of the pandemic on children
It is clear that children and young people have borne a disproportionate share of the suffering throughout the pandemic.
Is the vaccine working?
What does world-wide data show us about vaccine efficacy?
Advance Australia Fair?
Australia is now officially a society that is sanctioning medical apartheid.
The demise of informed consent
6 October 2021 – The sanctity of individual decision making and informed consent must be retained and respected.
Halt COVID-19 vaccinations in children
6 October 2021 – Giving children novel mRNA vaccination for COVID-19 is a medical intervention that remains unjustified.
