Covid Deaths “Impossible to Calculate” as Authorities Used 14 Different Definitions, Say Oxford Researchers
By Will Jones / 19 March 2022 • 12.02 via Daily Sceptic, 19 March 2022
The number of people who have died from Covid in the U.K. during the pandemic is impossible to determine because of the inconsistent definitions of what is meant by a coronavirus death, researchers at Oxford University have concluded. The Telegraph has the story.
Experts from Oxford University discovered that public health and statistics organisations across the U.K. are operating under 14 different definitions to classify a death from Covid.
Freedom of Information (FOI) requests, collated for a new report published on Saturday, show that many people who died in the first wave never tested positive for the virus, particularly older people who died in care homes.
Instead, their deaths were registered as Covid simply based on a statement of the care home provider, and because coronavirus was rife at the time.
In some care homes, more than half of the Covid deaths were registered in people without pre-existing conditions, which the report authors said was “implausible” for people who needed residential care.
The authors also point out that it is unlikely that a Covid infection on its own could cause death in the absence of contributing factors, such as other illness, or the infection leading to a more deadly condition such as pneumonia.
The report also found that in some trusts, up to 95% of Covid deaths were in people with Do Not Resuscitate (DNR) orders.
The team said the confusion meant they were unable to separate deaths caused by Covid from those triggered by the pandemic response, and called for a proportion of deaths to be verified by post-mortem in future pandemics to determine the true reason.

How Volatile Is Offshore Wind?
by Paul Homewood, Notmanypeopleknowthat, 18 March 2022
It is commonly claimed that the wind is much more constant and reliable in the North Sea and around Britain’s coasts than it is inland. “The wind always blows!”
But how true is this?
The Low Carbon Contracts Company, who manage the CfD system, provide daily data for generation by all generators with contracts. In particular there are sixteen offshore wind projects on their database, which offer a good geographical spread. They account for about a half of total UK offshore generation:
I have analysed January 2022 data for these, and below is the daily output:
Far from being “constant”, we can see that wind power is extremely volatile. Daily production ranges from 8322 to 84984 MWh, with a monthly average of 49245 MWh.
There were thirteen days when output was below 45000 MWh, in other words more than 10% below average.
There were seven days in the month when it failed to reach 25000 MWh. The average for those days was 17000 MWh, equivalent to them working at 15% of capacity. The worst day, when output was 8322 MWh, offshore wind was only operating at only 7% of capacity.
Bear in mind as well that this is winter, not summer when you might expect low wind speeds.
We have been promised 40 GW of offshore wind by 2030, but in reality the most we can actually rely on is 3 GW.

These Charts Show Russia's Invasion Choking World Of Natural Resources
from Zero Hedge, 19 March 2022
For weeks, we've detailed how Russia's invasion of Ukraine has sparked one of the most significant commodity shocks the world has ever experienced. It even supersedes changes to commodity markets in the 1970s and involves every commodity from grain to fertilizer to crude to metals.
In a series of charts (provided by Bloomberg), we will show just how the Ukrainian conflict and Western sanctions on Russia are choking the world's supply of natural resources, driving up prices.
Russia is a top exporter of many commodities.
Here is the share of Russian exports for each region of the world. The U.S. and allies implementing bans on Russian crude and other commodity exports have disrupted global trade and unleashed supply constraint fears (here's why banning Russian crude imports is risky).
Anyone
who has filled up their fossil fuel vehicle has noticed prices at the
pump have soared since the invasion. That's because Russia is the
second-largest crude exporter globally, behind Saudi Arabia. The U.S.,
U.K., and Canada have banned imports of Russian imports, sending energy
markets into turmoil.

Wall Street analyst says covid “vaccines” are the “greatest fraud in history”
by Ethan Huff, News Target 19 March 2022
“Fully vaccinated” Millennials are reportedly dropping like flies due to Wuhan coronavirus (Covid-19) “vaccines,” and former Wall Street guru Edward Dowd wants to start a national conversation about it to penetrate the establishment media’s “blackout” of the situation.
“That’s my goal, to just change the conversation, to give people cover,” says Dowd, who used to manage portfolios for the multinational investment firm BlackRock.
“Once the subject is broached, you don’t sound as crazy, if some other guy said it before you,” he told the independent media outlet WND.
With the help of a Wall Street insurance analyst, Dowd discovered that based on data from the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), the Millennial generation has suffered a “Vietnam War event” with more than 61,000 excess deaths between March 2021 and February 2022.
In the fall of 2021, there was a particularly significant “spike” in deaths among jabbed young people that cannot be explained by the so-called “delta” variant, opioid abuse, suicide or other causes.
“The only signal that makes sense to me is the vaccines,” says Dowd, who describes himself as a “futurist” and a “stock picker.”
Back in February, Dowd sounded the alarm about Big Pharma’s liability shield concerning covid jab injuries and deaths.
Because of what Congress wrote into the law, which Donald Trump
signed off on, just prior to the release of the shots, the
pharmaceutical industry cannot be legally held accountable for the
carnage caused by these deadly injections ... Continue reading >>>
