To those you who took the vaccine because YOU thought it was the right thing to do, I hope you live a long and healthy life. To the mandate Nazis intent on forcing vaccinations against a persons will. I hope you cowards get what you deserve.

We are not talking about a malfunction of scientific and empiric methodology. We are talking about the intentional corruption and abuse of this methodology, and the intentional hiding of telltaling data from scientific verification.

After over two years, companies still do not release certain data, do not run certain needed trials, and the new vaccines of the present have not even been properly tested , just on a handful of mice - and here mostly not even successfully, i read. Still, these companies have the nerve to demand that they are being given the official approval - and they even get it!

Thats why I no longer give them the benefit of doubt. They behave shady and suspiciousl and very much so. To me, it has become obvious already some months ago, that they were cheating us and abused the good will and faith of people, last but not least also of myself. I take that abuse personally. I appreciate the scientific process and methodology very much, I think its the best thing to raise and increase our knowledge that our civilisation has ever invented, and when it gets abused, betrayed, manipulated, bypassed, then this is criminal, and it is very severely criminal. And apparently with drastic consequences.

Those responsible must be found and identified, and then must be made to pay the price for their betrayal. It is unlikely to happen, since they have strong allies and lobbies in politics, and the whole system and laws are designed to protect them.

Very actual, this I posted before, some weeks/months ago, and I post it again. From the British Medical Journal BMJ, March this year. BMJ is considered to belong to the gold standard of monthly and quarterly medicine publications. I post the full original text. The authors are medicine noble prize laureats and know the business at universities since decades - and how it changed for the worse.

For my own part, over the years I repeatedly wrote and expressed my view that practically all, at least most academical branches have suffered severe corruption and degradation by lobbyism, ideological aberation and commercial influence-taking. The ammount of criminal energy involved in the Covid vaccines however nevertheless came as a surprise to me.

https://www.bmj.com/content/376/bmj.o702 John Campbell also made a video on this some months ago.

The illusion of evidence based medicine

BMJ 2022; 376 doi: https://doi.org/10.1136/bmj.o702 (Published 16 March 2022) Cite this as: BMJ 2022;376702

Jon Jureidini, research leader, Leemon B. McHenry, professor emeritus

Evidence based medicine has been corrupted by corporate interests, failed regulation, and commercialisation of academia, argue these authors

The advent of evidence based medicine was a paradigm shift intended to provide a solid scientific foundation for medicine. The validity of this new paradigm, however, depends on reliable data from clinical trials, most of which are conducted by the pharmaceutical industry and reported in the names of senior academics. The release into the public domain of previously confidential pharmaceutical industry documents has given the medical community valuable insight into the degree to which industry sponsored clinical trials are misrepresented.

Until this problem is corrected, evidence based medicine will remain an illusion.


The philosophy of critical rationalism, advanced by the philosopher Karl Popper, famously advocated for the integrity of science and its role in an open, democratic society. A science of real integrity would be one in which practitioners are careful not to cling to cherished hypotheses and take seriously the outcome of the most stringent experiments.5 This ideal is, however, threatened by corporations, in which financial interests trump the common good. Medicine is largely dominated by a small number of very large pharmaceutical companies that compete for market share, but are effectively united in their efforts to expanding that market. The short term stimulus to biomedical research because of privatisation has been celebrated by free market champions, but the unintended, long term consequences for medicine have been severe. Scientific progress is thwarted by the ownership of data and knowledge because industry suppresses negative trial results, fails to report adverse events, and does not share raw data with the academic research community. Patients die because of the adverse impact of commercial interests on the research agenda, universities, and regulators.


The pharmaceutical industry’s responsibility to its shareholders means that priority must be given to their hierarchical power structures, product loyalty, and public relations propaganda over scientific integrity. Although universities have always been elite institutions prone to influence through endowments, they have long laid claim to being guardians of truth and the moral conscience of society. But in the face of inadequate government funding, they have adopted a neo-liberal market approach, actively seeking pharmaceutical funding on commercial terms. As a result, university departments become instruments of industry: through company control of the research agenda and ghostwriting of medical journal articles and continuing medical education, academics become agents for the promotion of commercial products.6 When scandals involving industry-academe partnership are exposed in the mainstream media, trust in academic institutions is weakened and the vision of an open society is betrayed.


The corporate university also compromises the concept of academic leadership. Deans who reached their leadership positions by virtue of distinguished contributions to their disciplines have in places been replaced with fundraisers and academic managers, who are forced to demonstrate their profitability or show how they can attract corporate sponsors. In medicine, those who succeed in academia are likely to be key opinion leaders (KOLs in marketing parlance), whose careers can be advanced through the opportunities provided by industry. Potential KOLs are selected based on a complex array of profiling activities carried out by companies, for example, physicians are selected based on their influence on prescribing habits of other physicians.7 KOLs are sought out by industry for this influence and for the prestige that their university affiliation brings to the branding of the company’s products. As well paid members of pharmaceutical advisory boards and speakers’ bureaus, KOLs present results of industry trials at medical conferences and in continuing medical education. Instead of acting as independent, disinterested scientists and critically evaluating a drug’s performance, they become what marketing executives refer to as “product champions.”


Ironically, industry sponsored KOLs appear to enjoy many of the advantages of academic freedom, supported as they are by their universities, the industry, and journal editors for expressing their views, even when those views are incongruent with the real evidence. While universities fail to correct misrepresentations of the science from such collaborations, critics of industry face rejections from journals, legal threats, and the potential destruction of their careers.8 This uneven playing field is exactly what concerned Popper when he wrote about suppression and control of the means of science communication.9 The preservation of institutions designed to further scientific objectivity and impartiality (i.e., public laboratories, independent scientific periodicals and congresses) is entirely at the mercy of political and commercial power; vested interest will always override the rationality of evidence.10


Regulators receive funding from industry and use industry funded and performed trials to approve drugs, without in most cases seeing the raw data. What confidence do we have in a system in which drug companies are permitted to “mark their own homework” rather than having their products tested by independent experts as part of a public regulatory system? Unconcerned governments and captured regulators are unlikely to initiate necessary change to remove research from industry altogether and clean up publishing models that depend on reprint revenue, advertising, and sponsorship revenue.


Our proposals for reforms include: liberation of regulators from drug company funding; taxation imposed on pharmaceutical companies to allow public funding of independent trials; and, perhaps most importantly, anonymised individual patient level trial data posted, along with study protocols, on suitably accessible websites so that third parties, self-nominated or commissioned by health technology agencies, could rigorously evaluate the methodology and trial results. With the necessary changes to trial consent forms, participants could require trialists to make the data freely available. The open and transparent publication of data are in keeping with our moral obligation to trial participants—real people who have been involved in risky treatment and have a right to expect that the results of their participation will be used in keeping with principles of scientific rigour. Industry concerns about privacy and intellectual property rights should not hold sway.

Covid infections in the UK have fallen to their lowest level since October last year, the Office for National Statistics (ONS) says.

Fewer than a million people had the virus in the last week of August - about one in 70, down from one in 15 in mid-July.

Covid is decreasing in England and Wales, but staying constant in Northern Ireland and Scotland.

Millions of the most vulnerable are being offered booster jabs.

Health experts have predicted there will be a jump in Covid and flu infections in the run-up to this winter, and anyone who is eligible for an extra vaccine should boost their protection against both illnesses.

The autumn booster campaign began across most of the UK last week, with care home residents vaccinated first. Everyone aged 50 and over will be invited over the coming weeks.

Many will receive one of two recently-updated vaccines which target the Omicron variant, as well as the original virus.

And this quote, at 00:12:50:
"People are always criticising me, for things I said 18 months or 2 years ago. I make no apology for this at all , because we go with the evidence, and the evidence changes. The whole point is to make decisions, made on the most up-to-date information that we have."



That is science and what it is about: claims have to be proven, not just insisted on in a bid to make people simply believe. Believing is for the church, but empiry is about wanting to know based on evidence made from observation and counting, and thats why I do not apologize either for having made in the past a very strict stand in favour for vaccination - as strict as today I am warning of the manufacturing pharmaceutical companies' apparent foul play.

Did I say "snowflakes from stink"? It seems that the flakes accumulate into hailstones.

Meanwhile, we're all still in a GLOBAL PANDEMIC and while numbers are looking good, we're not out of it yet. It still isn't time to start second guessing the experts.

In the next five to ten years, if I find out I'm growing another arm due to the vaccine, I'll get p####d off, but at least I'll still be able to get p####d off.

Its endemic now , and populations have formed a huge level of immunity. Even the UN "experts" admit that we are staring into the light at the end of the tunnel.
Much better than it is now, it will not get again with this virus. Its here to stay.

Though much is still not understood. The predeicitons for Africa, and how it turne dout to be then, were so every very different, you cannot explain that only with food or sun light and Vitamine D and Infrared, I think it also must be about strong genetic factors, dealing with ethnic characteristics.
