Covid Infections Begin to Rise in Northern Europe as Winter ‘Flu Season’ Gets Underway
Has the winter ‘flu season’ begun in northern Europe, with signs of upticks in Covid positive tests in the U.K., Denmark, Finland, the Netherlands and also Russia?
There’s no new variant driving these – it appears to be purely seasonal, with Delta still dominating. There’s also a lot more herd immunity around now (and high vaccination rates, if that has any effect on infection and transmission). What will a winter Covid surge look like under these conditions? We may be about to find out.
Denmark recently ended all restrictions, including abolishing vaccine passports, declaring Covid no longer a “socially critical disease”. Let’s hope it holds its nerve as winter hits, and that we, too, will resist introducing any draconian new measures as we face whatever the coming season may throw at us.

This is purely anecdotal, but so many people around me at work and friends all have colds and flu like symptoms (most of them ‘jabbed’ with their miracle vaccine).
Me – not even a sniffle for yeeeeears despite going to tons of events and festivals recently mixing with people all over the country (I don’t do flu shots either). I must be doing something right because I’m nothing special.
Winter will be . . . interesting.
Same here. 2 friends, both double jabbed, both got Covid. Me, un-jabbed? Nope – carrying on with life as normal and absolutely fine.
Yep – just carrying on. I should have added that no masks and I haven’t used Sanitiser apart form at the start of this whole charade. I’ve done everything I could have to get something – but haven’t (and boy, have I been about and mixed). I don’t do soap or all those nasty home cleaning chemicals or anything like that either – apart from the horrible chemicals in them, I don’t think they do our biome any favours.
I’m not a crusty soap dodger – I’m clean, showering every day in water and very presentable but this relentless drive to kill everything through ‘science’ and chemistry will have repercussions for human beings rather than living in unity.
I think that’s called an immune system but there’s no money to be made out of something that’s free. 🤷♂️
Aha – someone who follows the same personal hygiene regime as me!
Shampoo? – Hair in far better condition since it’s only been getting a rinse in pure water.
Good man/woman. I will add no deodorant to that long list of no chemicals – just a volcanic rock crystal (nothing woo woo). They last for yeeeears and work like voodoo for 24 hours by neutralising the bacteria that cause bad odours. You don’t float them around your head and chant – just a bit of water to wet them, roll on and done. None of that aluminium and perfumed shit. had the same one for 4 years and still got two years left to go until it’s gone. Buy them for about 5 quid.
For someone who’s not a crusty soap dodger, you sure do seem to act like woon.
Nope – I simply rejected all the stuff the marketers and advertisers and ‘scientists’ said I should be doing that will lead to poor health in the name of money. I lead a simpler life free of all the crap it throws at you in the name of convenience and image perception and subsequently reap the rewards health wise both physically and mentally. I have a very good job and good lifestyle but if all those other things make me sound like a soap dodging hippy, then so be it. Labels don’t define me. =)
At least he’s not a paid troll like yourself.
I have used PitRok for about 15 years. It does however contain Ammonium Alum which is an aluminium salt
I can vouch for those crystal deodorants. They do last forever! And they’re good. Also, bar shampoo from the health food shop. Smells lovely, and it lasts.
Oh balsitic rock? One of the most mineral rich things you can get as I remember.
I haven’t used anything more than water on my hair in fifty years. Never had any comments or complaints.
Proctor & Gamble, Unilever and the rest persuaded the public that ‘Shampoo is Good For You’ with massive continued advertising going back to the late 19th century, just like smoking and Guinness (though in the latter case it happens to be correct).
What’s happening with the class action against Johnson & Johnson for concealing that talcum powder is carcinogenic?
Just for investigative purposes you understand, i shall be having four pints of Guinness tonight.
Sorry – I’ve just floated your immune system on the stock exchange and it’s doing rather well thank you very much. You’re welcome to buy shares in it if you want.
Hah! Thanks – unfortunately, there’s no money to be made in healthy people so I predict it will take a dive very soon. 😉
I’ll be well out by then.
Good post. But you remind me of Alan Partridge
My personal hygiene was never in question. I showered regularly. I didn’t smell
Same pattern here. Neighbour’s household all got colds when their kids went back to school. Terrified of it being Covid, they all tested every day. The mother (double-tapped) got a ‘positive’ result so isolated for ten days. No one else in her family of 6 tested positive. Probably a false positive, so she wasted ten days of her life. If it was a true ‘positive’, this destroys the narrative of the virus being highly infectious.
We, the lepers – unjabbed and unclean – all got colds and flu when my daughter went back to college in September. Recovered in a few days. Stayed inside for a day or two, didn’t get tested, carried on with life as we did for the past several decades. No problem.
‘double-tapped’ 😂
Credit goes to Sheepfarm for that phrase…
https://www.sheepfarm.co.uk/videos/
Isn’t it ‘double-tupped’?
I’m seeing precisely the same thing (although I did have a doozy of a cold a few weeks ago). It would be funny if it wasn’t so tragic. Numerous colleagues, double-tapped, currently off with it. Had a hilarious conversation yesterday with a normie colleague about the whole situation. It was like watching someone trapped inside a ball of their own nonsense looking for strands of coherence. Confidently and cheerfully said I hadn’t been tapped at all because I’d had it and there was no need and then watched her become nervous, slightly moving away from me but trying to remain polite; she was only in work to cover other colleagues who had been double-tapped and had covid! Sometimes holding the line is very funny.
It was a sight to behold watching her attempt to justify vaxxports whilst simultaneously acknowledging that being vaxxed doesn’t prevent infection and also be really polite about the fact that my life in public would be over for no sensible reason We’re not cut out for technofascism in this country really, are we.
people such as your colleague are incapable of any sort of rational thought when it comes to Covid. They have spent the last 20 months been brainwashed by the government and main stream media into thinking Covid is a deadly disease with a 100% fatality rate for everyone. Anybody who has not had the Covid jab is a filthy non person spreading disease and death to every person they come into contact with. Of course, you need to have an incredibly woolly mind to still not be able to see through the government propaganda.
Colleague of my wife who was double-jabbed got it, was off work for best part of a month. Her late teenage daughter had been single-jabbed, got it sp-so; mid 20s son who declined the jab got it, 3 days of not very ill and then 10 days of boredom. Colleague has told my wife, she now thinks she would have been better off not getting jabbed.
Some people can come around, just not enough.
“you need to have an incredibly woolly mind to still not be able to see through the government propaganda.”
Precisely. But I think that they are of the view that there must be something mentally wrong with people who are not buying in to the government propaganda.
Part of the mainstream narrative (e.g. from NICE) is that vitamin D has no effect, so that may be a handicap for the normies, many of whom may be vitamin D deficient. When I last checked, the official case against vitamin D was constructed by looking at studies that excluded deficiency. And of course to them there are no early treatments.
I took a rare trip to the riverside leisure and tourism area yesterday afternoon to take advantage of the late sunshine 🌞 , Vitamin D 🙂 .
The outside seating areas of the three main bar/restaurants were almost full while the gloomy (cozy in winter) interior of the bar I used was completely empty.
No fellow customers were wearing masks, just the Staff and a very elderly couple 😷 😷 clutching each other as they wandered past as far away from us as possible 😱 without falling into the harbour.
Story I heard is that at this latitude (typical GB), the sun is too low at this time of year to give much vitamin D.
You’re right – can’t really make vitamin D in U.K. between October and March. Everyone should really be checking levels and supplementing where necessary.
Ohhhh – that is such bad news for me – I must stop taking my D3 at once and cancel my iherb order. I mean, if NICE says so…..
Yes, they had that sham trial of vitamin D didn’t they. Nothing like what the OMNS recommends. I remember the BBC reporting on it, and at the same time reporting that more people from ethnic minorities (who are obviously more likely to be vitamin D deficient) were dying from “Covid”. I wonder if the BBC even realised how stupid they looked?
Yep – I saw all of that going on, but because she was face-to-face with an untermensch, she was required to be polite. Hilarious!
I hear that, had a cold, took lemsip and tot of whisky, gone in a couple of days,
Try skipping the lemsip. The tot of whisky by itself works just as well!
(Though perhaps the lemon could form part of five a day?)
Same as ‘Freshers flu’, regular as clockwork every year.
The best friend of my (nurse) mum was Matron in a small prep school 1950’s and 60’s, used to say the same thing.
Freshers flu is a thing – the movement about the country of hundreds of thousands of teenagers spreading germs from different parts of the country and world. This time of year it’s always rife.
It’s not so much the moving about, rather the intermingling when they get there with their regional and international variants.
Yes, perhaps so. Let me rephrase – Fuck a Fresher is a thing. 😉
I live on the outskirts of Whitby up in North Yorkshire…we have a huge Goth Weekend at Halloween…it’s well known if you’re out and about in the packed pubs that weekend you ALWAYS get a GothCold!!
Er sorry Mr Dee, no one recovers from proper flu in a few days…
That’s true. I’ve always laughed at people who have had a couple of days off and come back having ‘had the ‘Flu’.
Although it varies in severity, a moderate to bad dose will stop you in your tracks. I’ve never forgotten catching the 1958 version.
You probably just have a naturally strong immune system. That said, I know loads of fellow school parents who have had Covid post vaccination. My theory is that we won’t be through this until “everybody” has had Covid (and been aware of it) and realised it isn’t that bad. This is one of the main problems in Australia/NZ and the far east. Hardly anybody has had it, yet everybody think it is a terrible disease due to the shit MSM and low calibre politicians. In some ways the UK has been a bit fortunate with the timing of the various parts of Covid, as we got hit quite hard (in the context) before vaccination was a possibility. Let’s hope that winter isn’t as bad as it could be. Unfortunately, politicians like to be seen doing things, and in Boris’s mind putting in place vaccination passes is a small deflection tactic, compared to the catastrophe of another lockdown. A couple of parents that we know were complete Covidians but have chilled out since having been vaccinated and (post vaccination!) having had Covid. Obviously they think it would have been worse without the vaccination – maybe it would but how do you… Read more »
‘My theory is that we won’t be through this until “everybody” has had Covid (and been aware of it) and realised it isn’t that bad.’
Would that it were so. There’s so much cognitive dissonance going on, some them still think it’s bad when they and everyone they know has had its and it wasn’t bad. It has attained mystical status – they’ve lost track of what they are actually scared of!
You’re right about perception. Shakespeare had it nailed
“thinking makes it so” and
“ in the night, imagining some fear,
How easy is a bush supposed a bear!”
I’m sure that those who get a normal dose of a virus and attribute it to SARS CoV-2 immediately fear that they are in a life-threatening situation, focus and feel worse etc. That psy-ops, folks.
How easy is a runny nose supposed a crisis.
I’m not a believer in it being something natural or genetic. My family are pretty unhealthy on the whole and subsequently, they get ill a lot and look older than their years and I’m a pretty average chap, nothing special. I do believe that you are the sum of your parts and what you stick in your body and put on your skin, the food and drink you eat and what you breath along with doing regular exercise is what determines your health and immune system.
It’s not being some kind of health guru, with vitamin supplements and protein powders that the influencers or advertisers say you need – it’s through keeping it as basic as possible while consuming all that is good for you without the hype and nonsense. Real health is not a good business model.
Food companies only make money from people overly consuming. Pharmaceutical companies only make money from people being ill. The two are intrinsically linked.
I think scepticism has to include all those claims for miracle supplements as well.
Covid-19 may be caused by a bioengineered virus, but it is probably not designed to be brutally pathogenic. The real dangers were always going to lie with the deliberately genocidal vaccines.
There is no reason why the usual respiratory virus supplements wouldn’t help to fend off or fight Covid-19. The main benefit would likely come from Vitamin D, which undoubtedly boosts immunity to Covid and a whole host of the normal seasonal respiratory ailments. Lysine, NAC, Vitamins A & C along with high dose thiamine (Vitamin B1) may also be worthwhile.
The number of common supplements that stand up to scrutiny is remarkably small, although Zinc, and Vitamin D are among them. Vitamin C is best acquired through a balanced diet.
… and they can, similarly, have side effects: Vitamin D, for instance , can increase a propensity for kidney stones.
There are few free lunches.
you should be ok with Vit D if you take Vit K2 alongside it which makes sure that your body knows that calcium should only go to the places where it is supposed to go in the body (as opposed to getting deposited in the kidneys as stones)
Agreed Dobba it’s no coincidence that the same people who sell sugary, calorie laden food and drink, are the same ones who then sell you the ‘slimming’ calorie counted food!
“In some ways the UK has been a bit fortunate with the timing of the various parts of Covid, as we got hit quite hard (in the context) before vaccination was a possibility.”
But did we? In reality? An analysis of all-cause mortality (beyond which, as Farr highlighted, everything is ‘an assumption), including the April 2020 spike, shows no such exceptionality.
As you point out separately above, belief is everything. Most people believe that we are ‘through the worst bit’. I’m happy for them to continue believing that as if they didn’t we’d be looking like Australia right now.
Depending on how bad it gets this winter we have three basic scenarios:
Temperamentally Boris is an optimist so will stick with 1 as long as the power that be let him. 2 is probably most likely as nobody wants to admit that the vaccines are shit.
It is known that dying from Covid is more rare if vaccinated
Where did that little gem come from?
You know what I mean. Even if it isn’t true (and I’m willing to trust DS on this) that’s what people believe so extrapolating from that to ‘if I wasn’t vaccinated it would have been worse’ isn’t illogical (even if it could be wrong).
I love the reactions I get when I tell normies had a bad bout of COVID a few weeks ago, but now I’m basically back to normal fitness.
It’s like they think I’ve survived ebola or the black death.
I admit it wasn’t pleasant to say the least, but I survived with no help from the NHS (no treatments offered, only drug advice was paracetamol), and I’m in my mid 50’s.
It can be a very nasty illness, no doubt, but it’s no worse than bad seasonal flu, which can and does kill thousands in the UK annually.
It’s definitely does not justify the extreme measures that governments have imposed on us.
As has been pointed out, an anti-pyretic like paracetamol isn’t necessarily a great idea, given that a high temperature is part of the body’s defense mechanism.
Yes, Rick, I’ve read that paracetamol should be avoided and use Ibuprofen instead. Something to do with reducing reducing swelling in your veins caused by your immune system response to infection.
How do you know it was ‘covid’? Wouldn’t you just stay in bed and do all the same things if it had been flu, contacting a medic if you became really ill? So why bother to get ”tested” and play their game?
Same. Two friends vaccinated down with Covid.
Where wifey works, she is one of the two people who she knows not to have been jabbed. Several fully jabbed people have got it; neither she nor her compadre have had anything.
From this I would say that the answer is that your wife needs to be jabbed.
You recommend this and yet you nothing about her age, health or any prior Sars-Cov-2 infection. The jab is not the answer for everyone whatever you might have been told.
Wasn’t it supposed to be irony?
I think individual cases, whilst interesting, are not relevant unless aggregated into an overall picture – beyond showing that a lot of claims about infection and the snake oil are bollocks.
And that is the problem – the data (apart from all-cause mortality) is so corrupted – both deliberately and circumstantially – that we have absolutely no reliable handle on this virus, from genesis to incidence, from any perspective.
It’s an appalling situation
The “Miracle” about this vaccine is that they’ve convinced that it will save their live from something they’ll never die from.

Winter will be a nightmare. If they don’t have more restrictions because of “Covid”, it’ll be something else. This shambles has made a right mess of things one way and another.
But ‘they’ don’t see it as ‘a mess’, do they? Things seem to be going according to plan – frighten people deliberately, control them in many different ways, use propaganda, manipulation and coercion. Keep them afraid. Divide and rule. Job done.
Well maybe they’ll be afraid now.
Same here. When the grandchildren arrived I had two years of permanent colds. I started making real lemon tea and eating more oily fish. Remained strong and cold free to this day.
Same here!
The Lockdown Extremists are salivating at the thought of imposing vaccine passports on us. I reckon it will be end November “to save Christmas.”
Also, introducing this abomination at that time of year not only “saves Christmas” TM, but it also stops instant blowback on MPs because they are in holiday and reduces the possibility of protests because of Christmas and the weather. All of this will have been calculated by the regime,
Agreed, it’s nailed on. The Johnson junta is just seeing how badly the Scotch and Taffies are messing up their social credit score apps, so that they won’t make the same mistakes when they’re imposed in England.
I’ll add some collectivised ownership to the propaganda prediction: “Save Our Christmas, Protect Our NHS.”
I wonder why The Netherlands has that additional peak in April, any thoughts?
Could be wrong, but my understanding is that they were running mass internment up until then and mass “tested” their way back to “freedom”.
Thanks for that explanation, it did look odd but that sounds plausible.
It wasn’t so much a peak in April, as an ongoing peak from end of January to early May. My own view was that it coincided with the vaxx roll-out. Started off quite slow in January and didn’t really pick up steam until some time in March. Only the elderly in care homes and health workers were vaxxed in the first round, then all elderly, then they started moving down the ages, very methodically. Fits in with a long, stretched-out peak. Look at the extreme peak in June – 100% coincided with the push to get the 20-somethings vaxxed. They were pushing the J&J like crazy at the time. The initial advice was to wait 3 weeks after getting the vaxx, but because they wanted to use up J&J before batches started going off and having to be thrown away (just came out recently), min. of health told the young uns to take the jab and start partying away. Hence the huge peak. It was blamed at the time on the bars and night clubs being open again, resulting in superspreader events – utter nonsense, we have seen it enough times now that once a jabfest gets going, it is… Read more »
The point is that the justification for jabbing has to be massively convincing on all fronts to be even contemplated.
Simply – it isn’t. It’s not up to the sceptics to prove their case.
… and the peak was in January 2021. There was only a casedemic after that – no real ‘peak’.
Simply – it happens.
And, what the dickens is going on the UK???? Really, why are cases *so* high? Although that graph is a bit selective in the other countries included?
”Cases”? Do you mean positive test results?
The NHS website states that 876 people without comorbidities under 60 have died of covid-19 across the entire pandemic in England. There are around 44 million people in England in that age group. 876 out of 44,000,000, which is 0.0019%. That is all.
The vast majority of the 876 will have been obese, which really is an underlying condition.
Yes the have UNDIAGNOSED comorbidities, of course a post-mortem would normally be done to work out what they really died of but that’s gone out the window…
Handy that (for the coveruppers)…
I think you must be referring to “body positivity”.
I’ve used this figure many times to try to overcome the unbelievable fear level that this mess has managed to build up. Imagine Wembley full of this category of people? Two people have died in the entire 18 months. Not per week, per month – the entire period. Totally blown out of proportion 🙁
And probably ”with” it, because it was put down on their death certificates as the main cause of death, often when it wasn’t. ”Just ignore the tyre marks, nurse…..”
It’s well known that the PCR test picks up pretty much everything as a positive, Coca-Cola and the Common Cold being just two of them. So you have a sniffle, take a test and bingo you have 10 days off work. It’s completely and utterly absurd. Time we stopped the testing and only test people when they have genuine symptoms. Let’s got off the bloody merry go round!
Agreed.
The problem is the scumbags in this Gov. are spinning the bloody thing as fast as they can!
Time to stop testing, full stop. If you have genuine symptoms, stay at home till you feel well again. The testing is such a weird phenomenon.
[citation needed]
Acidic agents, you’re thinking of lateral flow, not PCR.
Why do you “know” that PCR tests pick up common cold coronaviruses? Which shared RNA sequence is it amplifying?
I agree that 45 cycles is lunacy, but I have no issues with the specificity of it. This site, right here, pointed out that positive rates for 45 cycle PCR have bottomed out at 159 out of 208,730 tests (July 31st to September 10th 2020). You can argue that lab contamination could produce false positives, but over that period it demonstrably didn’t. If the test was picking up “pretty much everything” as a positive, it couldn’t have dropped to just 0.08%.
Facts and evidence matter. If we resort to what we “know” (i.e. feel) then we’re no better than Branch Covidians.
Yes. Good. Do you know whether fragments of spike from the stabs could show up in a pcr test? Is that theoretically possible?
Lots of double stabbed get symptomatic Covid, but could they produce false asymptomatic positives too?
We “could” “theorise” all day, but what we know is that PCR positive rates bottomed out at under 0.08%.
They “could” be picking up other things, at other times, but they weren’t during that period.
The only thing I’d theorise is that test hasn’t changed, while the Chinese Virus keeps mutating, so if anything is going to rise, it will be false negatives.
The PCR test looks for three different parts of the SARS-CoV-2 genome (or it is meant to, at one point this was one gene). The variation of the genome which shows as different variants is unlikely to be in those particular genes being detected by the PCR test. When does the genome change so much that it can no longer be considered SARS-CoV-2?
if it doubled on each cycle as supposed to.
1 sequence would become 2^45 sequences which is 2^32 (~4 billion) * 2^12 (~4000) 16,000 billion times…
Lets just say an positive that took 45 would be vanishingly unlikely to be harmful or even infectious.
Swilling around in our bodies with the other 300+ trillion viruses
I think the point is that we don’t know – either way. An RNA sequence is just that. Not a virus.
Or an illness… as the article on here about gamesmanship showed – governments have cheated by changing the rules
Yes you are right he is talking the completely useless flow tests. What can happen though with PCR it can pick up the dead fragments of coronavirus, while you are carrying another virus that is infectious.
Carl Heneghan explained the PCR test and all it’s limitations regarding diagnosing infectious CCP Virus to Clark and Hunts HOC committee’s last year, he even got a chance to speak to government once, where he got lied about and vilified by SAGE members. Hence the Hancock “outlier” putdown. I think Carl largely gave up after that.
The public has been lied to on a massive scale because serious coronavirus generates a response that is pretty unique. The 28 days after a dodgy test is complete hogwash.
Run for the hills! Lock up ye daughters! Cover thy face! Wash thy hands and sing happy birthday thrice! cover thy infection hole with thy elbow! The winter miasma is upon us in Northern Europe! 😱☃️🚑
Not really. Insofar yesterday’s numbers go, the speed of the increase is already decreasing sharply, following the usual pattern of these outbursts of COVID actionism.
A couple of related observations:
Both suggest that the Very Impertinent People running the show know that COVID is over, they just don’t want to admit it yet.
The optimism (we could be like Denmark and hold off) maybe deluded but at least it’s comforting and kind and not the scared, blind, defensive and silent delusion – humans will do anything to survive and those of us who have remained disassociated from the lies and panic etc. also need hope. But pressed I have given up on the human race altogether- and find solace in other animals.
Since when did a positive test result equate to a ‘covid infection’ for that is what the writer implies?
Indeed, we cannot give up on the language, or we give up on the argument.
“Confirmed” “cases.” Oh no. Anyway.
How many are symptomatic?
How many are actually stopping people from working (as opposed to getting them another week’s paid holiday)?
How many hospitalisation?
How many deaths from the Indian variant of the Chinese virus?
And we can “hope” that the tyranny here won’t be ramped up again, but it’s forlorn. The social credit score apps are coming, they’re just being trialled in the Celtic Fringe first, where the natives are even more subservient to, and dependent on, the State.
Surely we’re not still labouring under the impression on this site, of all places, that the despotism has, or ever had, anything to do with infection or disease?
And what is the definition of hospitalisation, which most assume means taken to hospital in an ambulance unable to breathe – rather than picked it up in hospital and no or minor symptoms.
Indeed, I wish I could correct that line to “hospitalisation from the Chinese virus?”
A case of covid should be symptoms such as persistent cough, change in taste, temperature. These symptoms should be associated with signs of infection such as abnormal breath sounds, low saturations, high respiratory rate, elevated pulse rate. Confirmed by chest X-ray or CT showing ground glass appearance or other inflammation. Blood tests showing raised or lowered white cell count, inflammation markers such as CRP.
> Abnormal breath sounds, low saturations, high respiratory rate, elevated pulse rate
Hancock was showing those symptoms when he was caught on CCTV breaking his own rules.
But again, we run into the old, old elision – the confusion of a SARS CoV-2 infection with ‘Covid’.
I won
t be complying with any nhs app /passport - i will use fake id to get me into my work premises until im sprung and then ill be sacked/resign.I will only support companies that dont apply discrimination.
Build up supplies and make connections with like minded folk.
Yes, it might lead me to the poor house but at least i`d remain uncontaminated.
Neither. Never going to happen. Will not comply with tyranny under any circumstances.
I obviously don’t know your personal situation but you may want to re-think that. If you get caught you can get fired for dishonesty, never mind Covid. That could have repercussions for much longer than not being vaxxed could. I’ve decided that I’ll keep my mouth shut as long as I possibly can (I work from home so I could probably avoid the office for a while by making various excuses – luckily they are doing some refurb work in parts of the office so there isn’t much pressure to come in) but just be honest if challenged. If, ultimately, I were to be found out then most likely there will be a month or two of flapping about, then, if I am made redundant I’ll have 3 months notice period plus statutory redundancy pay which in my case is another two months. By then it will be spring again and hopefully Covid will have played out. At that point my employer might feel like it was all a bit pointless. With any foresight on their part they’d just make me a permanent home worker and maybe revisit down the line. The most important thing for me personally is that… Read more »
All you have suggested is bang on the money, alas, i have already gone down the path which will lead to me being sacked or i will have to resign. I suspect, as night follows day, my work place will send an email out at the beginning of January stating that they will insist on NHS digital certification for all employees. I may try to bluster and call on my decade
s worth of untainted employment as reason to work at home - but dont think theyll buy it. Unfortunately, i cant see any let up next year either so my plan is to try to find something to bring in an income (from home) by Christmas as back up. I, like most here, have significant monthly outgoings so this is a major major stress.I wish you the very best of luck. I’d would suggest trying the “Why do you think that you can demand private, confidential details about my health?” line, although at this point it’s really just building the case for a dismissal suit.
Have you looked into employment solicitors? Much as I loathe the parasites as a class, in practice many of us are going to have to resort to their ghoulish services.
I would suggest requesting their own full medical details before you will release any of yours.
Claim you may have a problem working for someone who’s had an abortion as it goes against your religious beliefs.

I’m sorry to hear that. Sounds like you either burned some bridges or have an unusually strident Covidian boss.
Again, I don’t know what options are available to you but you could try stating that, having experienced the joy of working from home you are never prepared to go into the office again. They might either accommodate that, possibly as a contractor, or you’ll have to quit and find something else on that basis. For many of us the most important thing is for our vaxx status to not become known, as it will be taken badly. Even if we retain our jobs you’ll find yourself frozen out. People will stop giving you work etc.,
Personally I can afford to be unemployed for a year even with outgoings. My main concern is that my wife might divorce me. Whilst she also think the world has gone nuts and agrees with me on most things, she would ultimately get vaxxed if unemployment etc., were to threaten her bourgeoisie lifestyle. I’m under no illusions that she married me for my cheekbones or charming manner.
There is another tactic that might work in some places. Take time off for depression. Get a note from a doctor saying that you need to rest for 6 months. For most of us, we are on the brink anyway so hamming it up a bit at the GP office (or zoom call rather!!!) shouldn’t be that hard.
I work in a touchy feely place where we even have ‘mental health first aiders’. Stupid, but why not make it work for you. Most companies wouldn’t relish the thought of firing somebody who was having depression issues ‘due to Covid’.
As with most of these tactics, it is about buying time until things blow over, or we can arrange our affairs to the new environment.
Gross misconduct. Instant dismissal?
In response to the replies of ‘good luck with that’ and ‘hope it works out’ etc:
People, realise that this will be happening to you all eventually without non-compliance of this fascism. Every establishment, shop and place of employment will eventually demand proof of vaccination, this is not even debatable.
You are going to be forced into that position, and quite soon.
It is debatable. Hope for the best and prepare for the worst. Depressing our side with black pills isn’t helpful.
It’s not debatable because it is the agenda, you will comply or they will force you out of society.
How optimistic do you think they are down in Victoria? They never would have believed life could become so dystopian a year ago, but they are at that point right now and it will be spreading worldwide if people keep appeasing it.
The only route to freedom and normality is to accept we’ve been conned and begin mass non-compliance.
Let’s not over-estimate how strong ‘they’ are.
Agree with the last sentence. The time to hold fast is now, before all this shit gets normalised.
“Despite encouraging everyone to be fully vaccinated there still remains a stubborn section of the public who refuse to comply. We have tried our best to avoid another lockdown but cases continue to rise due to their selfish attitude. Sadly this leaves us with no other choice.”
“Remember, no-one’s safe until everyone’s safe.”
And in a year or two ;-
” If you are are aware of any unvaccinated person or persons then please inform your local compliance unit. If said person is a close friend or family member you can use our confidential hotline number.”
In the Northern Territories you are in a position where you have to run from your house in the dead of night and live as a freedom fighter, subsisting on road kill kangaroos.
Take a look at New South Wales rules since October 11.
The following are direct extracts from the ‘rules’:
If you are not fully vaccinated you cannot take a holiday outside the local government area you live in.
If you are not fully vaccinated you can only travel in a vehicle with people you live with.
If you are not fully vaccinated you cannot visit an entertainment facility.
If you are not fully vaccinated you cannot visit a hospitality venue except for take away.
If you are not fully vaccinated you cannot visit a retail hairdresser, beauty salon or massage premises.
If you are not fully vaccinated you cannot attend an outdoor event.
If you are not fully vaccinated you cannot visit a recreation facility.
If you are not fully vaccinated you cannot visit a gym or indoor recreation facility.
If you are not fully vaccinated you cannot attend a place of worship.
You can report any person failing to follow these rules to Crime Stoppers.
In the case of an individual, the maximum penalty is $11,000, or imprisonment for 6 months, or both and a further $5500 penalty may apply for each day the offence continues.
Covid, Flu, Flu, Covid. Tomarto, Tomato, Portato, Potato. Don’t you wish they would call the whole thing off?
But, oh, if they call the whole thing off
Then the money will stop rolling!
Plenty of illness at my work – only among the vaxxed.
I’m not quite sure why this is an item as we all know infections of all manner of things are going to rise in the coming months as they always do. Of course, as pointed out, the issue will be how world governments react to such a natural phenomenon. I am not particularly encouraged.

They’ve not hit their intended targets and so just ask for approval based on some other metrics. And much more nonsense besides.
The NHS is overburdened every winter so it won’t take much for the lockdown zealots to demand yet another unnecessary lockdown.
Interesting thread indicating an inverse relationship between Covid and Flu.

I’m thinking the last 18mths didn’t reduce the elderly and vulnerable population in the uk enough to satisfy whomever is pulling the strings. So now we have a manufactured gas shortage and threats of interruption to electricity supply and hiking up prices, which will mean many elderly and vulnerable people will be unable or feel like they should not try to heat their homes adequately, or cook real food. Last year it was the suggestion to keep your windows open all winter which clearly didn’t work well enough. This year it’ll be a lockup without warmth or food and don’t even think about bothering the NHS if you’re badly affected by the cold and poor nutrition. It’s absolutely criminal.
Interestingly, Zoe looks like it is topping out again and is about to start falling. I don’t credit it with much accuracy In terms of quantity but it has been fairly close to the trends in terms of mortality throughout.
On a positive note I had an brush with a twat from NHS Wales who was ‘inspecting’ my location for Covid compliance.The friendly chat rapidly deteriorated regarding my Cavalier attitude.I decided to utilise a more refined approach ie if he did anything to disrupt my income I will carve him another arsehole, job done.Which supports my theory on brain washed they appear generally fragile and vulnerable to further instruction like Fuck Off! but their fear is palpable.I intend to deploy this strategy on a daily basis whenever the opportunity arises!
The bureaucrat-bully is often a paper tiger
I think he learnt the colour of fear is brown hideous twat!!
I can recommend the book ‘social justice warriors always lie’ by Vox Day. Although written pre-Covid it provides good advice on dealing with these types of people. As you say they are often mentally fragile and will crumble when faced with resistance.
So they’ve turned up the pcr cycles again….
Congratulations, Will, on using the correct term ‘positive tests’ instead of the misleading ‘infections’ or ‘cases’ – as well as the proportionate term ‘uptick’ rather than ‘wave’.
The problem of over-testing is would seem to be present in the UK figures. But, that apart, what is the ~300% level in the UK all about in comparison with the cluster of othe countries? Mis-attribution? High vaccination rates? Ct levels?
One thing is for sure – it blows out of the water any claim to superiority – or even competence – by the UK government in the handling of the virus.
This bodes ill for two reasons : if real, it suggests that the handling has indeed been totally incompetent, with the main result of policy being to simply delay herd immunity (which we suspect), or, if imaginary, it provides a platform for more police state action, as the inevitable infection season progresses.
One of my wife’s music group friends has a 5 year old son who has tested +ve for covid, presumably via a dodgy school test, perfectly fit and healthy no symptoms, not passed it to the rest of the family. I guess this is happening across the country? in which case the high UK figures will include lots of primary school children who are passing round a respiratory virus to build up their immunity much as children have always done. We might as well be counting grains of sand on the beach.
We should stop childhood covid tests now but I doubt that the teachers would be happy about that.
The physical damage that can be done to a child of tender years by being nasally probed …. ”Testing pupils” is spoken of glibly, as if it’s just a necessary inconvenience. It is positively DISGUSTING and abusive. That ANY adult will take part in this kind of assault is appalling, and the parents who actually allow their children to be abused in this way are also culpable. FIVE YEARS OLD! For crying out loud….
There may be an uptick in positive tests but the share of tests which are positive remains under the 5% level which the WHO defined as the point below which the “pandemic” is under control. It has been below 5% since the end of January..
Given that the false positive rate for the PCR test has been estimated at between 0.8% and 4%, the level of positive tests is still little more than noise.
But we seldom hear about this metric. Or indeed about deaths with COVID. It’s all about cases cases cases.
Deaths
“Covid deaths” is very iffy data
Probably all cause mortality with a pre panicdemic year for comparison.
Yes, I know. But even using their own faulty data there is little sign of any “3rd Wave”.
Most “cases” are kids, most deaths are the elderly. No real correlation between the two.
Percentage change over the last few months. Jumps about all over the place, but doesn’t appear to move much off of the baseline over time..
Flu has magically reappeared in the Asian numbers too.
“Spain’s Health Minister declares mask mandates will be kept in place to control flu: “Las máscaras llegaron para quedarse, al menos mientras tengamos influenze.”
“Masks are here to stay, at least as long we have influenza.””
Gosh. Who could ever have predicted that?

How do they tell the difference, have they isolated covid and flu viruses? Have they decided that muzzles and jabs that dont stop infection will be the solution now that they no longer want to pay for health care for the masses.
Oh dear, is it possible the vaxx reduces your immune system, Primes it for ade, all of the above. What a mess, but just keep giving out the koolaid booster and flu vaxx even though no one has any idea what flu variants might be around this winter if any. Keep taking tour Vit c,d,zinc and Quercetin. Sleep well, daily exercise and eat healthy.
It strikes me that many of us who are now taking the vits, zinc, quercetin, etc, weren’t doing so this time last year. Does that mean that many more of us are protected to a certain extent, so the flu figures might actually be lower? Or aren’t there enough of us to make a difference?
Apologies for being off topic but can anyone explain to me why a PCR test sample MUST be from the tonsils ( avoiding cheeks, gums, etc.) and nostrils-why won’t spit and snot suffice for testing?
If the lurgy can only be found on/in the tonsils/nostrils why the worry?- I rarely exchange tonsil secretions with people.
Or is it part of the humiliate and pacify process- getting people to agree to invasive procedures?
Or is it all theatre?
Anyone who takes a test for a cold or flu is absolutely out of their tiny mind. We are now seeing the first stages of true suppression and the sheeple may go along with it. Shame on them for destroying the future for children
No Denmark did not end all covid restrictions. Denmark still perpetrates a scientifically irrational medical apartheid international border discrimination against certain classes of ‘unvaccinated’ people entering Denmark.
