SAGE Adviser Demands People Get Booster Jabs to Avoid Anti-Lockdown Protests

Professor John Edwards, a SAGE adviser, has openly stated that Britain will not share the same fate as much of Continental Europe which has experienced a rapid rise in Covid cases. However, Edwards has connected the necessity for booster vaccines with the emergence of anti-lockdown protests across various European countries, such as the Netherlands, urging members of the public to get triple-jabbed to avoid similar protests breaking out in the U.K. MailOnline has the story.

A SAGE adviser has moved to reassure Britons the UK will not see a spike in Covid cases like Austria and Germany, but warned Europe’s soaring infection rate lockdown riots should act as a ‘warning’ as he urged people to get their booster jabs.  

Professor John Edmunds said today that opposition to stringent restrictions on the continent have demonstrated the importance of booster jabs, warning, “it is pretty clear immunity does wane”. 

“What you see now in central Europe with these rapid increase in cases, you see the importance of vaccination,” Edmunds told Sky News

But Edmunds said the U.K. was unlikely to be hit by the Christmas chaos because the country “is in a slightly different position.”  

This comes amid a fresh wave of Covid infections on the continent that has sent nations back into draconian restrictions and could see excess deaths start to rise again.

Italy is considering a lockdown of the unvaccinated, it emerged yesterday, which would make it the second country to impose the controversial intervention after Austria.

And Germany’s incoming Government has said that it wants unvaccinated people to be barred from going to work and travelling on public transport amid what Angela Merkel calls “dramatic” infection levels. The Netherlands has also introduced a 7pm curfew for pubs and restaurants amid rising cases there.

Austria has made vaccinations mandatory and yesterday announced it would return to lockdown on Monday, with Germany poised to follow suit after health officials warned they cannot rule out a full shutdown. 

The reintroduction of restrictions across Europe have sparked a fierce backlash and fevered protests broke out in cities including Rotterdam overnight, where riot police fired warning shots, injuring protestors marching against the Covid measures.

Today, tens of thousands of protesters gathered in Vienna with the far-right opposition Freedom Party among those who have called for the protest and vowed to combat the new restrictions.

Demonstrations against virus measures are also expected in other European countries including Switzerland, Croatia and Italy.

It’s certainly getting less and less coherent: in England, you can get the jab to avoid protests, or protest to avoid the jab.

In the Netherlands it’s a choice of getting the shot, or getting shot.

In Gibraltar you take the jab, don’t protest, and get locked down anyway.

I don’t want to be petty, but the lead in to the story speaks of John Edwards. The scientist in question is John Edmunds, as is stated in the article itself. An important difference if one wishes to engage in an internet search of this gentleman – and his wife who either now or at some point in the past appears to have worked for GSK, a vaccine maker. GSK is working on a “next generation” covid vax, so someone who might have an interest in that, might also have an interest in pushing for vaxxes and – shock, horror – overstating the risk of the lurgi.

The possible link between Edmunds’ wife and GSK was pointed out by Rosemary Frei on her blog, which was picked up by Off Guardian, which is where I first saw it – The Modelling-paper Mafiosi. Worth reading in full 🙂

I’m confused. Immunity wanes ? Setting aside T Cell immunity. The majority of people were vaccinated in the spring / summer well past coronavirus “season”. Come the autumn when Coronavirus kicks off again. People
get sick. So either they implemented the drugs at the wrong time or the drugs had no benefit at any time that can be proven. If I got a Flu vaccination in March and there is no flu until November but then started claiming the flu vaccination was 100,000,000 % effective I’d be called a loon – am
i missing something ?

Just been on a march in Totnes, I’m not much good at judging numbers, but at least 750 of us. There was supposed to be a days conference with speakers etc but the local authority cancelled the booking at the civic hall, they found two other venues, one a hotel, Public Health England contacted both and stopped it going ahead. So we met outside, listened to the speakers anyway and marched through the town – loads more publicity than if we’d met inside and alot of support along the way.
How frightened they are of people realising we have the power if we hold the line and stand together.

Just back from today’s London march. Thousands, don’t know how many.
Very light policing, I thought, no helicopter, no kettling – they weren’t expecting trouble. Nor was there any that I saw.
I would guess there might be forced injecting of police and fire services next. Not all the police will be happy about jab or walk policies. Some support from some shoppers, but I think mostly puzzled or believing we were all nuts.

They will have been puzzled to see a protest against this tyranny, thinking that restrictions have mostly been lifted, so what’s the fuss?

Majority of them won’t realise what is install this winter. They won’t know that the government will do the same in England as they’re doing in Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland. They won’t realise that soon afterwards they’ll do the same to us as they’re doing to the Austrians.

I can second all that. I have been on all but 1 marches. This was the lowest attended and also the quitest by far.
At the beginning, I thought we’d be less than a 1000, but having waited for the end from a position at the front I’d say we were a couple of thousand.
The people get more ‘normal’ from march to march, this time, more children and their parents were present than before.
The polish group carrying their madonna was unique and well received.
People just don’t understand what the fuss is about as life is comparably so free, no booster mandate or discrimination if the unboosted yet etc..
Obviously, they’ll eventually be in for a big surprise, but then it’s likely too late.

At what point are they going to admit the Covid vaccines don’t work? https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/59350823 .. De Bruyne who is vaccinated tests positive for Covid-19. England’s (Not Scotland or Wales’) better outlook is due to natural immunity from unregulated intermixing in the Summer when Vit-d synthesis is at its highest and interleukin-6 is mediated.

This https://www.bitchute.com/video/dcJ06m7AmUSe/ Tucker Carson interviewing Dr Scott Atlas (a real doctor not a Bix or Fauci) should be required viewing by anyone who cares about the state we have been put into.

It is clear that, despite some non-mRNA vaccines being ‘available’, that Fauci and his ‘HIV’ pals are determined to make everyone accept the dangerous mRNA concoctions as the path to their ‘promised land’ of a jab for every ill which will result in turning our own bodies into the instrument of the destruction of our immune systems and consequential early death.

Sadly, contrary to what Dr Scott Atlas believes, as far as I can tell, most of Europe and certainly NOT the UK, does NOT believe that natural immunity is a thing.

This is most likely because acknowledging the existence of NI would prevent the attainment of that “promised land” where every person can be mandated to have the jab which has been devised for every ill, as people with NI would be able to make their own choices about which PI they did or did not want to have, as opposed to big Pharma and the State making that decision for all citizens en masse.

States clearly don’t want us to think critically or even be functional adults – otherwise we wouldn’t buy in to the absence of science they are trying to sell us.

They don’t wane.

They just don’t work – as the trial data on deaths, that has now been revealed, shows. And to claim that there are reductions in hospital admissions and deaths is due solely to the vaccines amounts to special pleading as it takes no account of the changed virus and improved treatment of the sick.

So; the manufacturers – and Fauci, Bill Gates etc etc – all admit, that they don’t stop infection or transmission either. But the manufacturers never claimed that.

Why are we not rioting to stop the madness?

How does SAGE justify its demands in the face of all the evidence? Do they just want to see more people die from lockdowns and damaged immune systems?

depends on your frame of reference – if the original jabs do little from what I can tell the “booster” is the one which ‘boosts’ people in the direction of the morgue/crematorium.

perhaps that is the intention. jabs one and two to get you in the habit and then subsequent jabs more lethal [ plus big pharma makes more money that way]

When you steadfastly refuse to acknowledge the existence of any tool other than a hammer, every problem looks like a nail.

And when you state that every piece of wood in the world must be considered to have a nail in it and that the largest hammers available must be used to sort them out just in case, then every piece of wood will end up with hammer damage.

Punch with this hand, then punch with the other hand; until we are concussed and telling the interrogator that we’ll do whatever he wants us to. The end is total control, both economic and social, via the social-control passport. I’m starting to think that there’s no longer any justification for indulging our opponents by calling ourselves “sceptics” any more. An eight-year-old-child is “sceptical” when Mum and Dad tell him that Father Christmas shoves his presents down the chimney: a functioning adult whose attitude to this proposition can still be called “sceptical” should not be permitted to use sharp cutlery unsupervised, or to vote. These are the sad individuals that we see, alone in their cars, masked-up.
