The sceptical community – living up to its decentralised worldview – is not short of opinions and theories, robustly debated. These are too numerous to cover in detail in this short piece: it suffices to say that they cover a wide spectrum ranging from calamitous ineptitude (and innumeracy) of politicians and civil servants, deceitful and underhand sales…

Inquiry into increased neonatal deaths in Scotland gets underway
An open letter to the Chair of the Scottish Neonatal Deaths Inquiry Group on the importance of looking at all possible causes
RCOG still pushing covid vaccines to pregnant women
RCOG still pushing covid vaccines to pregnant women – why?
The role of the MHRA in regulating the advertising of medicines
The role of the MHRA in regulating the advertising of medicines – is the MHRA failing in yet another of its responsibilities?
How do doctors stand legally if a patient is vaccine injured?
An interesting correspondance with the Medical Defence Union To: The Medical Defence Union 24th August 2022 Dear MDU advisor, I and a large group of doctors have ongoing concerns about the risk:benefit balance of covid-19 vaccines particularly in children. We have been in correspondence for well over a year with the MHRA, the JCVI and the […]
Fauci confesses that Covid vaccines could never have worked as claimed
Fauci made some bold claims about the Covid vaccines in order to justify such coercive policies, including that they would prevent infections and limit transmission of the virus to others. These claims were then picked up by political leaders worldwide and used to justify their own policies, even when – from early data – it became obvious that the vaccines did not prevent infections or reduce the viral load of those infected.
Did boosters save lives in Europe?
The top ten European countries in terms of the proportion of people booster doses given were compared to the bottom ten to see if there had been a benefit.
Round and round the logic merry-go-round we go
The BBC reporting on covid in Japan reads like a play in three Acts. First, the mystery of their pre-existing immunity. Second, an alledged bungling of vaccine rollout before reaching one of the higest rates in the world. Third, how “low immunity” has led to overwhelmed hospitals and one of the highest current covid mortality rates.
Hypocrisy from MPs regarding regulators
HART have previously reported on recent failings of the MHRA. Here, the acknowledgement of those failings by politicians is contrasted with their continued praise of the MHRA with respect to covid vaccines.
How many must be vaccinated to prevent a serious covid outcome?
The government have recently released a document that was shared with the JCVI, the decision makers on who the vaccines should be offered to, no less than three months earlier in October 2022. The document answers the question – how many people would need to be vaccinated to prevent a hospital admission with covid? The numbers are in the tens of thousands, and far higher to prevent a single intensive care admission in all age groups under 60 years old.
Kent & Medway NHS is still pushing covid vaccines on teenagers
A concerned parent wrote to HART to share a letter she had received in her son’s bag. With her permission, we would like to publish both the letter, and her very well thought out response.
How to nullify criticism of the vaccines
At a time when concerns about serious adverse reactions to the Covid-19 vaccines are escalating, one might reasonably expect the World Health Organisation (WHO) – a specialised agency of the United Nations responsible for international public health – to take immediate and decisive action. Perhaps a recommendation to pause the vaccine rollout would be a reasonable step under the circumstances.
An independent review of vaccine safety is urgently required: an open letter to MHRA
For the last year, a group of senior health professionals and academics have been writing to regulators and prime ministers asking for a recalculation of their benefit:risk assessment for covid vaccines for children. These were described as marginal when calculated during the Wuhan and Delta waves and as far as we are aware had not been recalculated for omicron or indeed taking account of the wide-spread naturally acquired immunity.
We rightly mourn the dead, but mustn’t forget the disabled
Much of the analysis around Covid 19 vaccine harms revolves around counts of deaths, and excess mortality. This is perfectly understandable since “excess deaths” is a “hard” measure in that most countries are able to count the number of their citizens who have died quite accurately so this does allow for some reasonably informative inferences and international comparisons.
Repeated mRNA injections
One of the treatments available for people with severe allergies is “desensitisation”, which involves repeated injection of small amounts of the offending antigen.
How best to support the vaccine injured and bereaved?
On Saturday 21st January 2023, the vaccine injured and bereaved gathered with people who support them in marches across the UK organised by Truth be Told. The London march saw thousands of protestors who began at BBC broadcasting house before a silent memorial procession.
Three wise men

More evidence of mRNA vaccine failure
Concerning news about both safety and efficacy of the mRNA products seems to emerge every day and it is impossible to cover everything, so for this article we have selected just 2 notable new pieces of evidence.
Just before Christmas, a new vaccine efficacy study was published with (for the proponents of the mRNA products) some surprising and inexplicable results.
