When the U.K. Covid Inquiry postponed its vaccine module until January 2025, a group of concerned doctors and scientists decided that the truth couldn't wait. Their People's Vaccine Inquiry launches today.
Having more vaccine doses leads to more Covid infections, a major study has found: up 46% with two doses, 95% with three doses and 151% with more than three. A new approach to Covid is needed, say the authors.
Watch a Government Minister admit to Dan Hannan that the Covid vaccines did not prevent transmission, prompting Hannan to ask: "So why the hell did we force them on to young people? Why did we insist on vaccine passports?"
A new study from the Czech Republic confirms that Covid vaccines have around zero efficacy against death, with any apparent effect an illusion due to biases in the data, says epidemiologist Prof Eyal Shahar.
The Lancet's analysis implies that without the Covid vaccines global deaths in 2021 would have been 40% higher than normal – a higher mortality rate than World War Two or the great famine of China. This is absurd.
According to modelling published in the Lancet the Covid vaccines saved 20 million lives in the first year alone. How is that possible when UK data show that up to 92% of deaths were in the vaccinated?
The effectiveness of the fourth Covid vaccine dose against death was around zero, a new analysis of official ONS data by top public health scientist Professor Eyal Shahar shows.
Even on the ONS's own data it's clear that there was never a 'pandemic of the unvaccinated' as the vast majority of deaths since the rollout have always been in the vaccinated, writes Nick Rendell.
The true effectiveness of the first Covid booster was short-lived, if meaningful at all, once inherent biases are corrected for, says Prof Eyal Shahar. Peak protection was somewhere between mediocre and zero.
The evidence being published in medical journals showing the Covid vaccines to be much less effective and safe than they were claimed to be continues to grow, says Dr Raphael Lataster.
