Ivor Cummins’ movie, Covid Chronicles, is a good watch. At just over an hour long it’s the usual top quality data-centric content we’ve come to expect from him. It’s from the back end of last year but the information is all still relevant.

Apropos Dr Roger Watson a few days ago and the existence or otherwise of “viruses”: the importance of the debate is understood when we consider how “viruses” are being used to regulate and control our farming industry. It is very convenient to cull animals thought to have Avian Bird Flu or African Swine Fever or Foot and Mouth… All sorts of lockdowns and coercive control measures are used willy nilly on farmers and animals because of the say so of officials and “tests” which don’t really “prove” anything.

If “viruses” cannot actually be proved to exist – then something else is making animals ill and it is very likely to be the farming practices under which they are reared. So of course it is better to believe in “viruses” and to view them rather like an act of God. It absolves the producers of a need to improve intensive farming practices and normalises coercive practices such as lockdowns and worse.

Avian flu is diagnosed by a PCR test….

PCR tests cannot diagnose disease. They can detect genetic material from disease causing viruses, but it does not necessarily follow the individual has a disease. Viral fragments may be present from previous infection, or viral fragments inhaled from the environment.

I am fully aware of that, hence the fraud involved in the ‘diagnosis’ of avian flu

I hadn’t heard of this, another example of Clown World logic. Moderna’s CEO announced they are developing an mRNA-based treatment for people who’ve had heart attacks.

“The mRNA targeted strategies that we are investigating can stop the progression of inflammation, providing the opportunities of preventing cardiovascular disease events like heart attack, stroke and heart-failure without the unwanted side effects.” So they cause the problem then come up with a “treatment”. How convenient! Is this some sort of warped version of the ‘hair of the dog’?

Simples. First sell what causes the heart attack, then sell the cure.

Well, well … the almost last Covid zealot stronghold succumbs to first grade science:

https://www.gov.uk/foreign-travel-advice/spain/entry-requirements

All travellers should familiarise themselves with the entry rules for Spain before travel.
From 21 October 2022, all COVID-19 travel restrictions for travellers to Spain have been lifted. The rules that previously applied to travellers coming to Spain no longer apply

I wrote a strongly worded letter to the Spanish Tourist board recently after my fabulous, hassle free, zero Covid-restricted family Greek holiday in August, shaming the Spanish with their visiting diktat nonsense, and claiming I would never visit Spain again. Ever.

Must have worked. You’re welcome.

Well done, though I won’t be going until they drop their indoor mask mandate.

Forget Covid tests, health chiefs want monkeypox swabs!
Health chiefs? Let’s be perfectly clear, these people whoever they are, are not health chiefs. They may say they’re interested in OUR health but they are actually control freaks. And they’re not chiefs either – they’re bureaucrats, admin types, or just more of the same bought-and-paid-for doctors, researchers etc. How about changing that headline to: ‘Forget Covid tests, control freaks want monkeypox swabs!” Reads much better now, doesn’t it? And gets to the heart of the matter and heart of the problem.

Control & money. A dangerous combination.

A disturbing interpretation of trans rights in a healthcare setting causing actual harm to a patient. Total failure of duty of care.

‘Keeping our community safe’ – our family gp in the 70s was a very heavy smoker. If you went to see him there was always a full ashtray on his desk, but he did used to put down the one he was smoking while he examined you. I also remember being able to smoke in hospitals. I was telling all this to a 20 something niece and she thought I was joking.
Browsing a 1910 ish first aid manual, one of the recommended comforts for a prone and shocked person was to offer them a fag! How times change. I hope we can look back one day with similar shocked horror at the use of the covid vaccines.

You’re right…the images of a fag and a cuppa to deal with shock are permanently burned into my retinas from many old war movies of the 1940s/50s.

‘… into the 1950s, doctors promoted cigarette brands and study after study, sponsored by tobacco producers ‘proved’ there was no link, that smoking was not only harmless but good for our health.’

OK. I was born in 1952, both my parents smoked, yet when as a small child I asked could I try it I was warned in strong terms not to because it would be bad for my health. Threats were issued. From the 1960s I recall cigarettes being referred to as ‘coffin nails’ and ‘cancer sticks’, and hearing reference to people with ‘smokers’ cough. I never have smoked despite the ‘example’ set by my parents. I tried it but didn’t like it.

In the 1970s as a health professional, I noticed what a high percentage of colleagues smoked. When I asked why since they clearly knew and understood the risks, the typical answer was a shrug and I know I shouldn’t but I like it.

The danger from smoking was common knowledge so clearly the messages from the doctors and Big Tobacco were not working. The idea that the public was misled back then about smoking does not coincide with my observations.

These sorts of scenes still get played out even among my friends who are firmly addicted. I don’t tend to say anything these days. It’s that ‘I know I should stop and I will but…’. So they know it’s bad for them, might even kill them and they have some escape hatch ‘eject, eject’ scenes playing out in their minds but for now, it’s just one more fag…

I have never ever understood the appeal of smoking. It stinks and smells even more disgusting when stale, like when you visit somebody’s house and you can smell that they smoke as soon as you walk through the door because it permeates throughout and sticks to the soft furnishings, clothes etc, then it sticks on you if you’re in the vicinity of a smoker too, it tastes gross, like if you kiss someone who smokes or have a try yourself, and it makes you look ridiculous, like a right muppet. Then there’s the small subject of the massive health risks on top of course…Just a 100% rank habit. Oh and it’s expensive, which makes you look even more of a nob, wasting all that money.
Although I did quite enjoy the pong of my Granda’s pipe and baccy as a kid.

Link to an audio recording of the meeting held yesterday by Sir Christopher Chopes in Parliament for those on Telegram. https://t.me/publicannouncement602967921/1106 Message from Mark Sexton. [Forwarded from Mark Sexton] Full 1 hour 32 minute audio from the meeting in Parliament on Thursday the 20th of October at 2pm regarding vaccine injury.  A big thank you to Bryan Yeubrey for making this recording.  For information Mark Sexton speaks at 58 minutes and 10 seconds.  Also listen very carefully to MP Andy Brigden and his comments about Boris lying to MP’s.  To all of the many victims and their families we sincerely hope and pray justice will be served, there will be accountability and all of those affected receive the care and the compensation they truly deserve.  This is just the start, we keep pushing and moving forward.  A special thank you to Dr Aseem Malhotra, a Dr who realised something was wrong, investigated and went public demanding the vaccines are stopped immediately.  This is evidence of his integrity, honesty and courage considering he was originally an advocate for the vaccines.  Maybe we should also realise just how incredibly brave and courageous Dr Sam White was by going public against these vaccines… Read more »

And yet Johnson will never be investigated. Indeed, he may even be our next PM, a few months after he was our ex-PM. The corruption and incompetence is mind-boggling.

The fraud & corruption is in plain sight.

Another from Alison Wright “NHS England has contracted with PWC (UK) Limited, registered at 87a High Street, The Old Town, Hemel Hempstead,HP1 3AH, for “PWC support to develop SE Region COVID recovery approach” consultancy services. The Companies House registration number is given as 07443606, see images 1 and 2 of the contract, which is accessible here: https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/notice/70b3957f-f719-4df7-8e84-775a20dbbac2?origin=SearchResults&p=1 .
The registration overview of PWC (UK) LTD) in Companies House declares that this company is a provider of “window cleaning service”, see image 3 and this link to the Companies House registration https://find-and-update.company-information.service.gov.uk/company/07443606 .
NHS England’s contract specifies that it is for “Infrastructure works consultancy services – 71311300, and Research and development services and related consultancy services – 73000000”. Since PWC (UK) LTD is not registered to provide these business services, the contract is illegally entered into. 
This is evidence of serious and complex fraud. It is proportionate to suspend this contract pending the outcome of an investigation into fraud involving PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP.”

https://www.nasdaq.com/articles/pfizer-expects-to-raise-covid-vaccine-price-to-%24110-%24130-per-dose

NEW YORK, Oct 20 (Reuters) – Pfizer Inc PFE.N expects to raise the price of its COVID-19 vaccine to about $110 to $130 per dose after the United States government’s current purchase program expires, Pfizer executive Angela Lukin said on a call with analysts on Thursday.
The U.S. government currently provides the vaccine for free to all but pays about $30 per dose to Pfizer and German partner BioNTech SE 22UAy.DE. In 2023, the market is expected to move to private insurance after the U.S. public health emergency expires.
Lukin said she does not expect purchasing of the vaccines to transfer to the private sector until the first quarter of 2023 “at the earliest.” The move is dependent on the government contracted supply being depleted.

The depletion of current stock? Does she mean the destruction of current stock, as they have more than people want? Absolute shysters!!

Robert F Kennedy Jr….reaction to the childhood vaccination…

This reckless action is final proof of the cynicism, corruption and capture of a once exemplary public health agency. ACIP members have again demonstrated that fealty to their pharma overlords eclipses any residual concerns they may harbor for child welfare or public health.
“This is an act of child abuse on a massive scale.”

If you ever wondered how the Gnatzis normalised their intentions in relation to the holocaust..I say, look no further….
