More Than 11,000 Contracted Covid and Died after Being Admitted to Hospital
Hospital data shows that nearly 12,000 patients who were admitted to hospitals for other illnesses probably caught Covid while there and died shortly afterwards. This finding has boosted calls to implement mandatory vaccination measures for all NHS staff, with the policy becoming enforced sometime during the spring – although why, exactly, is unclear, given that the vaccinated can still catch the disease and infect others. The Telegraph has the story.
On Monday night, MPs condemned the figures as a “scandal”.
The revelation has prompted fresh calls for vaccinations for NHS staff to become compulsory, amid fears that hospitals could struggle to cope during the winter.
It is expected that the Government will announce mandatory vaccination for NHS staff this week, but give them until spring to get the jab.
Jeremy Hunt, the Conservative Chairman of the Health and Social Care select committee, said: “These numbers are truly shocking… hospital infections have been the deadliest silent killer of the pandemic… It surely strengthens the case for mandatory vaccination for frontline healthcare staff.”
Using Freedom of Information laws, the Telegraph obtained data from NHS Trusts around England showing the numbers of Covid cases that were likely caught in hospital, known as nosocomial infections, and subsequent deaths.
The disclosures reveal that 11,688 people who died in hospital after testing positive for Covid likely caught the virus there, accounting for one in eight Covid deaths in hospital.
One trust recorded as many as 484 deaths of patients who were thought to have caught the virus on wards during the pandemic. In some trusts, around a third of the patients who had died with Covid had caught the virus in hospital.
The revelations will raise concerns that hospitals have become a breeding ground for the virus and that the NHS has not taken adequate measures to stop it from spreading.

Yet getting jabbed with the Clot Shot RAISES the chances of spreading SARS2 to others.
And you can’t ignore all the harm to staff the jabs will cause either and that will cause missing staff (even if they’re not sacked for following their Public Health Act 1984 Section 45 rights)..
Posted on Laura Dodsworth’s Substack today –
Good for you, Holo(gram)
You are not allowed to die of anything other than covid once they have you in their system
So you get admitted to hospital for late stage cancer, get swabbed for a 45 cycle positive on your deathbed and it becomes a ‘covid death’ with the disease being acquired in hospital – hence calls to inject all staff. When is someone in a position of authority going to call this hoax out?
Or you die from the ‘vaccine’ and become a ‘Covid’ death statistic.
Two points:
What ‘vaccine’?
This is hardly news. Back in May 2021, the local Eastern Daily Press reported that, and I quote, ” A quarter of all Covid deaths occurred after patients were infected while in a Norfolk hospital,new figures have revealed.The figures found the James Paget University Hospital, in Gorleston, was 10th highest for the percentage of all Covid deaths where patients were infected in hospital, with 25.8pc.”
I haven’t seen a thing about this from the supine Norfolk and Suffolk lockdown-favouring Tory MPs, the leading light of whom was last seen in action doing a maskless disco number at the Tory conference.
Meanwhile, Wales bans the unvaxxed from cinemas from next week…. This has nothing to do with a virus.
and thus has nothing to do with Health.
Celtleiter Drakeford’s finances need examining.
Vaccine passport/control
Clearly governments are testing whether their populations will tolerate a system of mandated annual vaccinations as a means to introducing universal digital ID.
So far it’s looking quite promising for them.
Not everyone has accepted it but they have cleared a few important hurdles.
The boosters is what they are testing now. If enough people take up the boosters then it verifies that people accept regular vaccinations to have ‘normal’ social activity. That’s pretty much all the major hurdles cleared.
After that it’s just tightening the screws to round up more people and perfecting the systems so that the public isn’t too inconvenienced by any of it (as long as they do as they are told and follow the mandates).
They’re not far off now.
Yup, I agree with your assessment. They will leave just enough unvaccinated to allow future blame, and to focus the sheep’s attention on.
Shortly after the NHS mandates, it will come into force for all public businesses. Staff and customers alike.
————————————
Personally, I would like to see some designated part of the country that is deemed the least compliant, then en mass all us unvaxxed types move there and swamp the area. Elect our own councillors and run the town/city as it was pre all this madness.
Would these people get a share of the nuclear weapons they have paid for through their taxes?
I am not advocating a secession movement!
Just a town in the UK, in which the elected officials are mandated by the electorate to not not follow the unlawful mandates.
You’d still pay your taxes 😉
It’s just an idea anyhow, born out of desperation of the situation we are in.
‘Personally, I would like to see some designated part of the country that is deemed the least compliant, then en mass all us unvaxxed types move there and swamp the area. Elect our own councillors and run the town/city as it was pre all this madness.‘
A common fantasy amongst those who cannot accept reality. How long do think such a paradise might last?
I agree. And coming (if the PTB get their way): “Digital currency” which is a euphemism for banning cash. This will be “game over” for real liberty and personal freedom.
Who cares? Nothing on anyway…
In my town (Troy, Alabama) our five-screen movie theater closed during the lockdowns (because of the lockdowns). For the first time in 100 years our county has no movie theater. Among other things, this means a loss of jobs. It also means any family that wants to go the movies – on a date or take their children to the latest Disney movie must now drive 50 miles. Who knows how many accidents will take place in the years to come for people being forced to drive 100 miles round trip. You also need to figure in the extra cost in gasoline expense and babysitter expense. So this matters – economically and to long-term public health.
No need to drive. According to some here, movies will be beamed into your head via 5G and the nanobots.
or the memory of watching it will be.
What could go worng?

Wales leading the charge in showing just how stupid their gov’t and health advisors.
I’ve always had a healthy phobia of hospitals, horrible disease ridden places.
How Sweden’s lockdown gamble paid off: Nation has suffered fewer coronavirus deaths than most of Europe and has a lower infection rate
Note how they emphasize “gamble” when in reality Sweden was following decades of evidence based medicine, i.e. actual science!
EXACTLY! The lockdown was a gamble and it’s been a disastrous malinvestment.
They would like all government workers to be jabbed and added onto the social credit scheme
But all hospital staff are muzzled.
And muzzles stop the spread of the Chinese Virus.
Right?
Riiiiiight?
Riiiiiiiiight….
They most likely have natural immunity too. It is so brazen of them to how easily they have managed to eject that basic fact from the discussion.
why then do their unions and royal colleges not write letters to HMG, encapsulating that science about NI, and publish them as open letters?????
See Laura Dodsworth latest, with an interview with a nurse whistleblower, working a virtual Covid ward. She’s suggesting that most of the nosocomial infections are being transported from hospital patients discharged C pos, then into the home, therefore going unrecorded in the figures…

This is not strange.
Hospitals are dangerous places.
Always have been hotspots of infection, always will be.
It’s where sick people congregate…
Just like the waiting rooms in doctors’ surgeries. All those ill people coughing their lungs out and touching the magazines.
I try to avoid them like the plague.
Caught some of my worst bugs while having to sit for ages waiting for my appt in GP waiting room.
Really? They are flagellating themselves only in order to whip us all harder.
It’s a non sequitur. The staff, whether vaccinated or not, are tested all the time. It’s infection control procedures that need to be addressed, not vaccination.
Since, presumably, the vast majority of hospital employees are vaccinated (and were vaccinated before the rest of the public in many cases), logic says most of these hospital patients who were infected while in the hospital were infected by vaccinated healthcare workers.
It’s the fucking tests! Stop the tests, no covid!
They use the number of deaths having caught covid in hospital as an excuse for jabbing hospital workers. Never let a failure go by without profitting from it. Total scum!
Having already complained to the Telegraph about their reporting, this was the final straw that made me cancel my subscription. I should have done it a long time ago.
Yet again we are confusing the presence of the virus with dying from the disease.
Unless we know what number of that 12,000 died directly or with complications from the respiratory disease Covid-19 then these figures are meaningless.
This info tells us these death numbers are inflated greatly.
on climate change
“Sir Patrick Vallance says, like with Covid-19, science will play a key role in tackling the issue but it requires people to change their behaviour too.”
How about Patrick and his colleagues go away for 10 years and develop a climate change response plan. Then when climate change happens we can throw it in the bin.
“Dr Andy Hartley, Climate Impacts Lead at the Met Office, says it used a 32C temperature estimate to determine the level at which people would be defined as being “at extreme risk”.”
funny english people and their weather. 32C is too hot for me but its not really a risk.
Ahmedabad uses 45C as a threshold to implement their heatwave response plan (nobody told them that you develop a plan in order to throw it away when the time comes)
Nosocomial infections have been rife since Florence Nightingale. They occurred even when ward sisters could be disciplined if there was an outbreak of infection on their ward. Clostridium Difficile doesn’t have the Difficile for no reason, norovirus, hospital acquired pneumonia, MRSA, MSSA, the common cold. There wasn’t a winter that went by when I didn’t need time off whilst working in A&E, either upper respiratory tract infection or gastroenteritis.
Anyway, what to buy the kids for Christmas? I know!
“With the coronavirus ravaging the globe, it can be a scary concept for adults, let alone children.
This spring, one company is turning the novel virus into a teachable moment, by turning it into a cuddly plush toy.
GIANTmicrobes, a Connecticut-based toy company that turns microbes into huggable toys, unveiled its COVID-19 plush toy to the public”
“Hospital data shows that nearly 12,000 patients who were admitted to hospitals for other illnesses most likely caught Covid whilst there and died shortly after.”
Don’t get sucked in. This is another bollocks figure – although nosocomial infection is a major issue. Covid is an end of life disease.
Maybe they have been infected due to the fact that vaccines do not seem to be a lasting solution to the virus.
A new paper to support this fact.

Some time ago, I worked for a medical supplies company. A colleague once spent a lot of time running an innovation project in a hospital. I asked him what his main learning was from spending time there. He simply said – ‘do whatever I can to avoid ever having to spend time in a hospital’.
Just went to the BBC and this was on the front page.
Those working for the Welsh NHS will not have to take a
kneejab.https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-wales-politics-59220094
That is neighbouring countries following the science.
but in Wales Jabs will be compulsory in order to visit a cinema…
Celtlieter Drakeford is nothing if not inconsistent.
Opening comment from a thread on Voice for Victoria’s Twitter page.
Interesting there’s no media coverage about the fact multiple nightclubs in VIC, all obviously with fully vacc’d staff/patrons, are currently dealing with multiple case outbreaks. That certainly didn’t take long. Guess that passport is working really well. So much science, right?
Full thread here.
Let’s not forget about the inaccuracy of the tests and the false-positive rate. A possible false-positive test result would get you stuck in a Covid ward. The subsequent fear and anxiety might then affect your breathing and actually shut down your immune system. And then, who knows what kind of care might be administered by equally terrified doctors and nurses. It is indeed possible to be scared sick. The nocebo effect—the opposite of the placebo effect—is very powerful. The most well-known and highly-studied manifestation is voodoo death. If someone believes in voodoo and has a curse put upon them, they usually die.
PCR tests are not able to detect infectious SARS-COV-2 virus. So the argument is moot. The bastards are lying again.
What happened to the diet, Boris?
The parable of the prodigal son was always the hardest for me to accept, but in the end I had to admit it made sense.
If Boris Johnson is anti-mask and is going to be vocal about it him, I will applaud him.
And if he stops promoting covid jabs aggressively and stands firmly and definitively against any kind of jab mandate or certification scheme, then almost everything will be forgotten.
I’m reminded of John Sparkes’ Welsh philosopher Siadwell from the 1980’s TV show “Naked Video”. He once opined;
“Well, of course you know what happens to people when they go into hospital. They die”.
My goodness Bunter gets bigger every time he’s photographed, I know the camera is supposed to add 10lbs but that would just be his sizeable mammory tissue. I do hope he’s not planning to give a knighthood to his personal trainer.
