Vaccines saved 100,000 lives? Er, no, Minister

September 7, 2021

PUBLIC Health England and Cambridge University claim that coronavirus vaccines have prevented more than 100,000 deaths. Can this be true? In a recent post on the British government’s website, Dr Mary Ramsay, head of immunisation at PHE, states: ‘It is remarkable that the vaccine programme may now have prevented over 100,000 deaths in England alone.’ 

Note the use of the inconclusive word ‘may’ which could just as easily mean ‘may not’. 

Imagine if a child went missing and the police chief leading the search told a press conference: It is remarkable that due to our incredible investigation team, the missing child may be found alive and well.’ 

But officially approved scientists oftenget away with espousing similar absurdities unchallenged.

The same government bulletin quotes Health Secretary Sajid Javid: ‘Today’s new data showing that vaccines have saved more than 100,000 lives in England is phenomenal and testament to the UK’s vaccination programme.’

No, Minister, it doesn’t.

‘The vaccines have saved lives’ and ‘the vaccines may have saved lives’ do not mean the same thing and should not be used interchangeably. An estimate is not a result. How can we be expected to trust these people with what goes inside our bodies when they are so casual about the truth? And what is their basis for suggesting that the vaccines ‘may’ have saved 100,000 lives anyway? 

‘The results were produced using the real-time pandemic surveillance model from PHE and Cambridge University’s MRC Biostatistics Unit, looking at the direct and indirect impact of the COVID-19 vaccination programme on infections and mortality.’

Ah, modelling.

‘The total was calculated by comparing the estimated impact of vaccination on infection and mortality against a worst-case scenario where no vaccines and no additional non-pharmaceutical interventions (NPIs) were in place to reduce infections and mortality.’

Failing to take into account Covid’s obvious seasonality, the mystic modellers have conjured a worst-case scenario out of thin air. Figure 5 on Public Health England’s Covid-19 vaccine surveillance report for Week 34 ludicrously assumes that without the vaccines, coronavirus-linked mortality would have surpassed the January peak of 1,285 Covid deaths (seven-day rolling average) in the summer.

The biggest flaw in this modelling is the assumption that lockdowns and other pandemic mitigation measures, such as those in summer 2020, were effective at preventing what would otherwise have been a catastrophe. ‘The no-vaccination scenario assumes that no other interventions are implemented to reduce incidence and mortality. Therefore, the findings presented here should be interpreted as the impact of the vaccination programme on infection and mortality assuming no additional non-pharmaceutical interventions were implemented. ...

COVID-19: Have You Got Superhuman Immunity
While news from Israel, the world's most vaccinated nation they claim, from the USA and from closer to home fuels suspicions that the COVID vaccines pushed so hard by government and mainstream media are not working because numbers of fully vaccinated people getting sick with or simply testing positive for COVID is proportionately as high as the number of infections before vaccines were available, the World Health Organisation (WHO) and national health authorities are still pushing the case for vaccination as hard as ever.

Coronavirus Statistics and Lies
TV news and radio bulletins and the printed front pages of mainstream media (MSM) have, every day since the outbreak of the Coronavirus variant known as COVID19, gleefully reported the daily deaths from the disease as the justification for the lockdown, that has effectively placed entire populations under house arrest. And amazingly, given that people sitting at home twiddling their thumbs as they watched their jobs evaporate and their debts pile up, have not resorted to widespread rioting and civil disobedience ...

Israel (98% vaccinated) now has more covid infections per capita than any country in the world
2 September: Just a few months ago, the mainstream media praised Israel for its “pandemic-ending” vaccination campaign. With over 40 percent of the population “fully vaccinated” in the first quarter of 2021, Israel was well on its way to stopping community spread and clearing out its hospitals. The nation of Israel imposed some of the strictest lockdowns during that time, violating the Nuremberg Code and segregating the unvaccinated. from public life.

Harvard Epidemiologist Says The Case For COVID Vaccine Passports Was Just Demolished
A newly published medical study found that infection from COVID-19 confers considerably longer-lasting and stronger protection against the Delta variant of the virus than vaccines.The natural immune protection that develops after a SARS-CoV-2 infection offers considerably more of a shield against the Delta variant of the pandemic coronavirus than two doses of the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine

July 29: In a bombshell admission today the United States Center for Disease Ccontrol’s director Dr. Rochelle Walensky, the official narrative on the effinciency of vaccines in preventingcovid-19 was destroyed. Back in March Walenksy put on record the promise that vaccinated people could not spread the virus and infect others,yet earlier this week she admitted that vaccines are failing, and vaccinated people may actually be carrying higher viral loads than unvaccinated people, thus contributing more to the spread of COVID-19 than those of us who wisely declined the killer vaccines.

UK Research Group: Coronavirus Vaccine ‘Unsafe for Humans’ Due to Adverse Events
Scientists and doctors looked at data from the British government’s Yellow Card vaccine event reporting system. They found that the “overwhelming” number of adverse reactions from COVID-19 vaccines definitely raised alarm bells. The Yellow Card system is the British equivalent of the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS) in the U.S. The system is run by the Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency (MHRA).

Another Kick In The Bollocks For Warmageddonists And CAGWARTS
I've had many arguments with the Warmageddonists, the people who have been saying that the 'scientific consensus' had agreed if we did not shut down all coal, oil and gas related activites (that is, just about all human activities except unprotected sex and sleeping) the earth was going to turn into a giant furnace and we would all burn. Those of us audacious enough to ask when this was going to happen felt the horizon shifting.

Cultural Marxism Curriculum: The Frankfurt School
Western civilization at the present day is in a crisis different from anything that has been previously experienced.

EU Policy Mash Roils Markets Before Paris Climate Deal.
First of two stories which show that while failing in their stated objectives to save the planet, EU and United Nations policies have been outstanding in their real objectives which were to advance the global government agenda and to tighten the control of the wealthy elite on the lives of the masses

Thanks To The Dishonest Climate Scientists, the Public Doesn’t Know Water Vapor Is Most Important Greenhouse Gas.
Yet another exposure of the lies that have propped up the scientific dishonesty and corporate greed behind the global warming scare. Climate change is real, but the climate has changed constantly for millions of years and whatever the final outcome of what is going on now is not likely to be catastrophic. Very minor changes over the last hundred years have been amplified by data manipulation and the likely effects overstated.

Climategate, the sequel: How we are STILL being tricked with flawed data on global warming.
Daily Stirrer occasional contributor Graham Lear returns to one of our favourite themes, the climate change hoax, part of a program of scaremongering being engineered by enemies if freedom and democracy in the higher echelons of scoiety. This about it, who is pushing the myth of catatrophic climate change being caused by Carbon Dioxide from human activity?

We said 2014 was the warmest year on record… but we’re only 38% sure we were right - NASA
Nasa admits this means it is far from certain that 2014 set a record at all. Does that mean 97% of climate experts are 62% sure they are wrong? The thing with half-truths is that they generate a glorious fog, but it has no substance. Ask of the spin-cloud a couple of sensible questions and the narrative collapses.

Earth’s CO2 Levels Pass Global Warming ‘Milestone', Nothing Happens - Daily Caller.
After two decades of panic stricken scientists and screeching lefties wailing about the catatrophe that would ensue once the concentration of carbon dioxide (CO2) in the atmosphere passed 400 parts per million, that figure was reached in December 2014.

Arrogance, Intolerance, Snobbishness and Corrupt, Self Interested Practices. It's modern science. The world sems to be waking up the the fact that while in the past scientists tended to be rather detached, slightly obsessive people not driven by material goals, the modern science academy has been very largely corrupted by political patronage and corporate money. The academic field of climate science it especially notable for this.
