Thank you for such an eloquent piece of writing. Thanks also for being a great human and standing up for what is right.
The isolation period of the lockdowns was intentional in my opinion. By associating vaccines with freedoms and a return to normal, many in a sense of lockdown fatigue would have done almost anything to return to 'normal'. I know many people who only took the jab to go on holiday or go back to work. I think the isolation period was important. Left alone, sat in front of a TV with constant exposure to propoganda and death counts, constant news and updates from the Prime Sinister that seldom had anything new or useful to say other than parrot abuses! We were being indoctrinated by psychological operations! The weaponisation of fear by our government was deeply sinister and unethical. The behaviour psychologists behind this know that fear and anxiety suppress critical thinking skills and that many people will give up almost anything or accept anything (experimental drugs and vaccine passes for example) to feel safe. Being a scientist has been both a blessing and a curse in this, a blessing to understand the $cience behind these jabs was deeply flawed, that public health policy was out of place in Western Societies, and that the messaging from our once trusted institutions was in many cases incorrect, deeply misleading, or blatantly fraudulent. It has also been harrowing because I saw early on the potential for harm, the propoganda, the lack of ethics, the lies, the manipulation of the public the world over! The fact that every country in the world was parroting the same narrative was a warning in itself. In the UK Emergency Management sector, agency interoperability (communication between agencies) is always flagged as an area of concern in need of development and yet in the 'biggest crisis of all time', the communication structure was in place for every single country (almost) to ditch their pandemic plans in favour of a Chinese-style lockdown with the same messaging over and over the world over!
And don't even get me started on the pharmaceutical industry, the MHRA, the CMO, the WHO et al!
Have you read the Psychology of Totalitarianism by Mattias Desmet? If not, it is worth a read. He argues that dissenting voices are the only hope for preventing a totalitarian future. He thinks that if people raise voices of dissent it makes the masses question what they are being told are the facts. It disturbs the narrative. I believe this is why scientists have been censored on social media platforms and ignored by the mainstream media, and why the medical licences of doctors have been threatened. We need to keep challenging the narrative, it seems futile at times, but progress is being made. We must never give up or give in to this. It doesn't matter how tired we are, and let's face it, many of us are exhausted. There is too much at stake and too many wonderful apsects of science, medicine, and bioethics that will be lost for good.
Take comfort in the fact that you are a good human who believes in doing the right thing. The good people in this world are the only safeguards we have against the evil that is helbent on destroying our humanity.
I'm prepared to stand up for what is right regardless of the cost because fairness and justice are important to me.
So sad but excellent article. Thank you for writing it. Many letters have been written to MPs, councillors and NHS Trusts but the globalists are not so much running the show as running their own asylum, so it’s over time to follow examples set by East European states when under communist tyrannical regimes and set up our own parallel systems. We all need to say NO and opt out of their Agenda in all its guises not just healthcare. It’s the healthier more sane way to go.
I am an NHS doctor and this blog encapsulates my feelings exactly when considering these last 30 months
I am really angry that our country has effectively lost its NHS on the altar of covid mania, sadly after 30 years as a GP it is over, well and truly over as I can no longer tolerate everything that has been done to us in the name of “science”
There are big names out there for whatever reason of their own who could have changed things but didn’t, I am really disappointed that the majority of doctors have not realised the damage that has been done to our country by politicians and health “experts”
As the late great Petr Skrabanek wrote:
“The pursuit of health is a symptom of unhealth. When this pursuit is no longer a personal yearning but part of state ideology, healthism for short, it becomes a symptom of political sickness”
Petr would have regarded the last two years as an absolute abomination of quackery and pseudo science, and he would have been correct
"The Covid Physician is an unheroic NHS doctor". Oh no - a total hero. A beautifully written piece - had me in tears as I remember the loss of a friend who wouldn't hear me on any of this because, like the Covid Doc, I've been aware since mid-2020 that there was something evil afoot. Thank God for people like you, Covid Doc. If you live in Sussex, please get in touch - I'd love you to be my doctor.
You say "I suspect that great swathes of the population are jabbed in digital kind only", but my personal experience is that that is extremely unlikely. I believe most people fell for the propaganda, so much so that previously intelligent people were eagerly lining up for jabs or boosters, some only to go on holiday perhaps but in essence they believed the story that the jabs were safe, so even if they did little or weren't needed then "what's the harm"? Sadly we now know there was a lot more to it than that.
My GP practice, run by ostensibly highly qualified ,well educated medics, has a stern poster at the entrance advising that masks must be worn on the premises; no ifs, no buts.
A few days ago I went in to cancel an appointment , bare faced, as is my wont: receptionist concealed behind ubiquitous persoex screen, boxes of disposable masks on the counter for the potentially dangerous public to use, hand sanitiser bottles and disapproving stare from masked bloke in front of me.
I wasn't challenged, but this nonsense is now embedded and the mindless compliance seems to have become a virtual addiction.
Same paraphernalia at the dental practice, where the bare faced are required to produce an exemption certificate. No such document exists to my knowledge.
Dentistry continues to be severely constrained by the restrictions on patient numbers and the requisite cleansing diktats. Furthermore, I now dread to think what will happen to dental practices, should the rumoured blackouts materialise.
A friend ,who managed to see an orthopaedic consultant, having refused a wait for a zoom consultation, initially had to persuade the hospital receptionist that her practice had sent details of the wrong foot.
This having finally been rectified after much red tapery was invoked, concluded with the consultant recommending steroid injections. Several weeks have elapsed, but nothing has been done.
Jabs are still being promoted by the enthusiastic SNP, who have displayed extreme corona zealotry throughout this dismal saga.
Now we face a growing cost of living crisis but still the masked zombies adhere to the secular rituals which have distorted our societies.
Finally, my sincere thanks to the Covid Physician for speaking out: it provides a shred of hope.
Thank you. I am you, I am an Advanced Clinical Practitioner, after 30+ years in the NHS where I have always questioned things, I left a job i loved when they brought in the NHS mask mandate, I was binned out of the out of hours service I worked for for not getting jabbed when it was needed to go into care homes then had to leave the GP practice I had joined when the NHS vax mandate was brought in.
I now work for an agency in primary care and I have just recieved a complaint from an MS nurse at the local hospital, with the threat of reporting me to the NMC for disrespecting the consultant by advising a patient not to get a 4th jab, she was in her 20's.
I despair, I hate my job now, I hate the NHS, and I despise colleagues who go along with this shit.
I cannot express how strongly I agree with you. You extinguished the gaslit fuelled doubts in my mind with your articles, which I've shared (to annoy and awaken) the senseless.
You are not alone, from a fellow GP I thank you and invite you to join us. Enough is enough.
Thank you for being you and speaking out. I know there are good Drs out there but they are currently well disguised. I reluctantly watched as my elderly Mum and Sister (brain damaged at birth) were given the A Z in Dec20 and Feb 21 - because they were vulnerable the shots were done by home visit. Mum said the team delivered the shots at the front door and were gone within a couple of minutes so draw conclusions about informed consent. Same with Mum's oldest friend who I've been looking in on. I spent 5 months scared they were going to develop clots. Come the booster campaign the surgery had changed to Pfizer and I put my foot down. I found a meta analysis online that showed clots from AZ were less likely after age 60. I spoke for Mum and Sis who I'd put on a regimen of high dose Vit D, C, zinc and magnesium. Neither caught covid or anything else throughout. I argued that if anything they should stick to AZ since they had tolerated it previously. I hated the thought of it but at the time we were staring vax mandates and hatred from the Covid cult in the face. My husband and I were drawing up contingency plans to 'disappear from official records' we were that scared of forced shots and we knew Mum and sis wouldn't be able to do the same. The surgery bordered on harassment with their constant phone calls. I fielded all of them and voiced my opinion on mRNA. Wasn't received well. What worked was when the nurse said "But you could bring Covid in and your mum could die". To which I responded "My mum is 93, a cold could kill her. Do you have a 'vaccine' for that?" I also found it astounding that the surgery were pushing the Pfizer for my sister who has secondary breast cancer when the most basic critical investigation by myself, a layman, discovered that the Pfizer Covid shot interacts with Abemeciclib which is what she takes. Anyway they gave up after about a month. My Mum's friend wasn't so lucky. I spent hours trying to convince her not to take the Pfizer. I pointed out the research I'd found, the fact that government had initially stated shots couldn't/shouldn't be mixed and told her people were dying. She wouldn't listen. Dec 18th she took the shot. Dec 21 suffered a blood pressure event of 201/145 causing 3 hr nose bleed. Admitted to A+E, kicked out a few hrs later and hasn't been right since. Rapid cognitive decline, constant pain in legs, falls, sudden bouts of illness with no obvious cause/diagnosis. Numerous calls to surgery/appts to see Dr and eventually by spring/summer home visits because she couldn't make it to surgery. She used to drive herself to the supermarket prior to Pfizer. She struggled through til June, still coming shopping with me but then took to her bed, unable to get up. She told me she was tired of feeling ill all the time. I could have wept. 5 home visits and 2 blood tests by surgery found nothing specific. Eventually she was admitted to hospital but very quickly deemed 'medically fit' and discharged only to have to be taken back in the next day. The paramedic said to me that likely the hospital looked at her and decided she was the least sick and they needed the bed. She's now been in hospital for 4 weeks, had 3 falls while there, one of which caused a foot fracture and is now in a rehab facility. Still no specific diagnosis for what caused her rapid sudden decline although to me it's pretty clear. What horrified me was that in May the surgery contacted her for a spring booster. It fell to me to tell them what happened after her Dec 21 shot. They still boostered her but reverted to the AZ. No doubt while in the rehab facility she'll be given the Moderna omicron booster and there's nothing I can do. I can't believe how completely captured the NHS is. As soon as we can my husband and I will be offski - eastwards because the whole of the west has lost it's collective mind - and we won't look back.
Yes, brilliant essay and sincere thanks for being one of the few doctors to fight the good fight. If you haven't already, read Ibsen's 'Enemy of the People' and be proud. Shared on twitter.
I think Whitty still believed in March 2020 he still might turn it round but he became inexorably ever more complicit. I believe this was criminal misdirection of policy.
An interesting piece. Such a pity you didn't have the courage to write it two years ago! Many, real health professionals did have the courage to speak against this from the start, they are the heros.
We can of course now expect a swarm of nhs doctors crawling out of the woodwork, claiming "I was doing what I could on the inside", all in a pathetic effort to avoid the justice that is coming their way. This one will no doubt be joining other "doctors" on youtube, feathering their own nest and trying to cover their tracks.
excellent. i thank filthy pfizer & our globalist scum for showing me how many of my friends & family are cowards- they inherited a peaceful world & life of freedom [relatively] thanks to the ethic of honour integrity & duty to the next generation by our forebears- while todays cowards who couldnt even stand against a dirty "vax" pass on a legacy of devastated humanity & suicidal unhealthy youth
Thank you for such an eloquent piece of writing. Thanks also for being a great human and standing up for what is right.
