COVID-19
When money and ethics collide
Last month, HART wrote an article on the spring booster programme, including linking to an article in Chemist+Druggist on the pending availability of private covid vaccines in pharmacies up and down the land. A company called Pharmadoctor was the first into the ring but has been followed by others including Boots, the oldest of the UK high street chemists, whose strapline on their website is: We serve your wellbeing for life.

Confusion reigns between “indemnity” and “immunity”
We sporadically hear of vaccine injury cases in the UK being contemplated or even launched against covid vaccine manufacturers. We also frequently hear people say that “the covid vaccine manufacturers cannot be sued as they have an indemnity”.
The Cape Byron Lighthouse Declaration
In early 2023, three Australian health professionals who had all been ‘struck off’ for speaking out against their government’s pandemic response, decided they must speak up for medical ethics and freedom of debate. They met and set up the Cape Byron Lighthouse declaration. The declaration’s four aims would have been uncontroversial only a few years ago.
Why we kill our own cells
A virus hijacks a cell to replicate itself. There is more than one way in which our immune systems can defend us from them. Our bodies have developed sophisticated defence mechanisms to protect us. This article explores how our immune system combats viral infections and the unique challenges presented by cells containing mRNA from vaccines.

State of the Nation Pt II
HART’s ‘State of the Nation’ article, published 18 January 2024, was appreciated by some (“Excellent article from the HART team” said a reasonably well-known MP), but copped a bit of flak elsewhere. Language matters, and we should perhaps hold up our collective hands regarding a couple of sections that contained woolly language not picked up during proof-reading… HART is an amateur organisation staffed by busy professionals, but that is no excuse, and we are not afraid of saying sorry.

Unvaccinated children barred from Birmingham schools
The new face of coercion Unvaccinated children sent home from school as a ‘National incident’ is declared. Does that ring any bells? Well maybe if you had lived in Lithuania or California during the recent pandemic. But here in the UK, those strident voices warning of ‘consequences’ for citizens declining an offer of a covid […]
Three years on from the first covid vaccine death
3 years ago today, Dr Stephen Wright died from vaccine-induced thrombosis, caused by the AstraZeneca covid vaccine he received on 16th January 2021.
Like many others he was assured it was Safe and Effective and that he should take it to protect others.
His family mentioned the vaccine could be the cause when he was hospitalised and a Yellow Card was completed in early February 2021. MHRA took zero action on this 1st known death!
Whatever happened to Public Health?
HART member Dr Alan Mordue, who spent most of his career working as a Consultant in Public Health Medicine, recently gave a talk to Common Knowledge Edinburgh on this topic. He directly compares what was in our pandemic plans before March 2020 and what we actually did in responding to Covid-19 in the context of some key principles of the specialty.
