Let’s not forget said company’s track record. Research will expose rather a lot of law suits and financial settlements in the past.

Interesting how the term “fake news and anti-vaxer movement” gets loosely thrown around by someone in the medical field above, yet they still lose sight of the fact that there are under 54 million cases (not deaths) worldwide in a population of over 7.8 billion (March 2020). That’s an infection rate of 0.69 percent of the worlds population. The death count from COVID, if the mainstream media is to be believed is 1.3 million which is 0.016 percent of the worlds population.

This is hardly a pandemic to be fair. If one considers the annual cases of influenza, then the worlds reaction ( exacerbated by the media) to Covid seems bizarre.

In the U.K. we touch on around 35-40k deaths a year due to Influenza and nobody bats an eyelid. In some years we have had over 35k excess deaths in the U.K. over and above the norm. Worldwide there are similar annual deaths to flu as the current Covid deaths.

Big pharmaceutical companies stand to make a lot of money off the back of this and so do a lot of powerful people( some of whom are our own MP’s, medical advisers etc with enormous shares is these companies).

Is it not surprising that people are putting certain bits of information together and coming to their own conclusion that possibly all is not what it seems? Why do people have to label others as conspiracy theorists and worse, just because they exercise their rights to critical thinking and freedom of speech.

Everyone who thinks this new Vaccine is the saviour may well find that it is the start of a downward spiral in terms of medical ethics, and the patients right to chose. The loss of integrity by those that make money from the kickback from the big pharma for promoting their vaccines including medical institutions and doctors need to remember they took the Hippocratic Oath.
