Clap For Chris – The Greatest Scientist…NOT.

6 February 2021

This Man Is Supposed To Be In Charge. Earlier this week, the Chief Medical Officer was heckled in the street by someone who disagreed with him. Perhaps not the most appropriate way to make your point – even if the point being made was absolutely correct – but if you are a true leader and […]

More Infectious Equals More Vulnerable.

28 January 2021

Infectiousness And Infectivity Are Not The Same. Infectiousness is how easily a pathogen can spread and infectivity is the level of disease severity it can cause. We explained this in more detail earlier this month in response to the UK government’s regular – and one would predicate deliberate – confusion of the two. S-VoC / […]

If the government is to be believed, the new killer mutant of death (no, not vaccines minister Zoonotic Gaddafi, the other killer mutant of death known as N501Y) is even more infectious and even more transmissible. Except the government likes to confuse viral infectiousness with disease severity. They are very different. Also, […]

PCR Testing Is Picking Up The Common Cold.

Mutation = Phylogenetic Evolution. Not content with inventing the most recent ‘killer mutation of death’, there are now apparently even more new strains of the ‘killer virus of death’ (the one that continues to not kill people, especially those it infects). There is now even one supposedly from South Africa (“this is an illegal mutating, […]

Mutation Makes A Vaccine Useless.
