  1. Everyone should read this article in today’s Arutz Sheva about the Institute of National Health’s suppression of crucial data about the origins of Covid19 that they obtained from China–at the request of the Chinese government–and their subsequent “losing” of the data so that it now cannot be retrieved.

  5. From the February 26, 2021 Daily Mail:

    What IS the truth about Covid deaths?

    Experts cited pressure on doctors to use Covid-19 as cause of death because it was ruled ‘notifiable disease’
    Grieving families last night said deaths had been wrongly certified as Covid-19.

    Demanding an inquiry, top medical experts and MPs also insisted they were ‘certain’ that too many fatalities were being blamed on the virus.

    One funeral director said it was ‘a national scandal’. The claims are part of a Daily Mail investigation that raises serious questions over the spiralling death toll.

    More than 100 readers wrote heartbreaking letters following a moving article by Bel Mooney last Saturday. She revealed the death of her 99-year-old father, who suffered from dementia and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, was recorded as coronavirus.

    Layla Moran (pictured) , the Liberal Democrat MP who chairs the all-party parliamentary group on coronavirus, said: ‘The Government should call a public inquiry into the handling of the pandemic immediately with an interim investigation into all Covid deaths that should report as soon as possible’

    Dozens expressed similar frustrations that the causes of death of elderly and already-unwell relatives had been wrongly attributed. Eight of the families who wrote to the Daily Mail have successfully urged doctors to change causes of death previously recorded as Covid-19.

    Layla Moran, the Liberal Democrat MP who chairs the all-party parliamentary group on coronavirus, said: ‘The Government should call a public inquiry into the handling of the pandemic immediately with an interim investigation into all Covid deaths that should report as soon as possible.’

    Tory MP Paul Bristow, a member of the Commons health committee, said: ‘It’s almost certain that a number of deaths have been wrongly attributed to Covid-19.

    ‘Not only has this skewed figures when data has been so important in deciding how we respond to the pandemic, it has caused distress and anxiety for relatives.

    ‘Whether we have received the most appropriate figures should definitely be considered in any future inquiry.’

    A funeral director in the North West told the Mail: ‘The way Covid has been recorded and reported is a national scandal and a thorough enquiry should be opened immediately.’

    Medical experts have cited pressure on doctors to include Covid-19 as a cause of death because it was last year ruled a ‘notifiable disease’, meaning any case needs to be reported officially.

    Professor Clare Gerada, former chairman of the Royal College of GPs, said: ‘When this all comes out in the wash, we will find out we have over-recorded Covid-19 as a cause of death.’

    Richard Vautrey, who chairs the British Medical Association’s GP committee, said the toll may have been overstated at the beginning of the pandemic when testing was not widely available and ‘cause of death would have been based on best judgement of clinical symptoms’.

    A Department of Health spokesman said: ‘We are confident the death statistics are robust and provide an accurate picture of those who have sadly died from the virus. The guidance to doctors completing a medical certificate of cause of death explains they are expected to state cause of death to the best of their medical knowledge and belief.’

    After the Mail’s BEL MOONEY revealed her father was wrongly certified as dying of coronavirus, an avalanche of responses show she is far from alone

    Special investigation by Paul Bracchi and Arthur Martin for the Daily Mail

    There are three things you should know about the last few weeks of Jessie Wylde’s life.

    The first is that she had dementia and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), a lung condition that causes severe breathing difficulties; the second is that she was a resident at Aldergrove Manor care home in Wolverhampton; and the third, that at the time Jessie, 83, was a resident at Aldergrove, at least, there were no confirmed cases of Covid.

    She was transferred there at the beginning of last year from the high dependency unit at the city’s New Cross Hospital, where she was being treated for respiratory problems.

    On April 26, around three months after leaving hospital, Jessie died.

    Shortly before her death, a doctor at Aldergrove assessed her and confirmed that she had COPD.

    More than 100 readers wrote heartbreaking letters following a moving article by Bel Mooney (right) last Saturday. She revealed the death of her 99-year-old father (pictured), who suffered from dementia and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, was recorded as coronavirus

    Yet despite being given such a diagnosis, despite the absence of an outbreak of Covid in Aldergrove and despite not testing positive for Covid herself, the cause of Jessie’s death was registered as Covid.

    The revelation compounded her family’s grief.

    ‘I told the registrar that I would not accept this,’ her son Gary said when we spoke to him this week. ‘I said, “I will never, ever allow the cause of my mother’s death to be registered as Covid”.’

    The person who made that decision was an on-call doctor.

    When he found out, Mr Wylde, 59, the managing director of a windows firm, contacted Aldergrove’s regular doctor, who knew Jessie.

    ‘The doctor explained to me that in the absence of a test, doctors are encouraged to put down Covid on death certificates,’ he said. ‘But he agreed that my mother was suffering from COPD and severe dementia, and he also agreed to get the death certificate changed. This only happened because I challenged it.’

    Jessie, who separated from her husband when her five children were grown up, was much loved. She went on to become a grandmother of nine and a great-grandmother of 16, which gave her much joy in later life.

    ‘I didn’t want my mother to become just another statistic,’ explained Mr Wylde. ‘The least she deserved was to have the right information included on her death certificate.’

    Her certificate now says that the cause of death was chronic pulmonary disease (COPD) and dementia.

    The word ‘Covid’ was removed.

    The Wylde family are not alone; people nationwide, we now know, who have suffered bereavements during the pandemic have had a similar experience.

    Their alarming testimonies have been forwarded to this newspaper following Bel Mooney’s moving account, in last Saturday’s Mail, of the death of her 99-year-old father in the early hours of February 9. He had passed three Covid tests but was still classed as one of Britain’s 120,000 Covid victims. When Bel questioned this, the care home doctor, she says, explained it was because there had been Covid fatalities on the same dementia floor.

    More than 100 families contacted us in the aftermath of Bel’s report and, at the time of writing, letters were still coming in:

    ‘Dear Bel, I am writing to let you know that I had exactly the same experience when my mother sadly passed away’ . . . ‘Dear Bel, the same thing happened to my dad’ . . . ‘Dear Bel, I had the same problems when my darling wife passed away.’

    Among the ‘postbag’ were eight families, including the Wyldes, who managed to get the death certificate or a doctor’s medical certificate cause of death (MCCD) — containing the information needed to register a death — changed because they refused to accept that a loved one had died from Covid and challenged the clinical diagnosis.

    Others said they had not pursued such a course of action because they didn’t want to exacerbate the grieving process.

    Common sense tells us that these can’t be the only examples. But why is this happening? The reasons, are — as we shall explain — as complex as the pandemic itself. Over-stretched doctors, anxious to do the right thing in an unprecedented situation where the recording of incidents of Covid is a legal requirement, would account for the most.

    Also, of course, there’s human error, doctors’ questionable judgement and possibly those drawn towards the easiest and most convenient path when faced with impossible workloads.

    There are three things you should know about the last few weeks of Jessie Wylde’s (pictured) life. The first is that she had dementia and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), a lung condition that causes severe breathing difficulties; the second is that she was a resident at Aldergrove Manor care home in Wolverhampton; and the third, that at the time Jessie, 83, was a resident at Aldergrove, at least, there were no confirmed cases of Covid

    But let’s make one thing absolutely clear: it is nonsense to suggest, as conspiracy theorists and virus deniers would have you believe, that doctors en masse are deliberately falsifying certificates to exaggerate the number of Covid deaths to justify behavioural and travel restrictions; in other words, that this all part of some government plot.

    That said, the evidence that some deaths are being wrongly attributed to Covid, like for example, Jessie Wylde, is compelling.

    So too are the accounts of families with elderly relatives who were already receiving end of life care suffering from, say, COPD, heart disease or cancer, when they contracted the virus; they had the virus, in other words, but, in the eyes of their families, they didn’t die from Covid but were still classified as Covid deaths.

    In households across the country this alone has caused untold anguish, if the response to Bel Mooney’s article is anything to go by; for many families, rightly or wrongly, Covid is seen as a stigma — a ‘plague’ as Bel puts it — which has exacerbated their grief.

    This is the hidden story behind the statistics; what the people who have been writing to the Mail in their droves over the past week are telling us.

    It is why distinguished retired pathologist John Lee believes that he can ‘think of no time in my medical career when it has been more important to have accurate diagnosis of a disease and an understanding of precisely why patients have died of it.’

    There is no accepted international standard of how you measure Covid deaths; trying to rank different countries to decide which is the worst in Europe is, to quote one leading statistician, a ‘completely fatuous exercise’.

    In Britain, there are two parallel reporting methods; two different sources of statistics.

    One set compiled by Public Health England (PHE) records the number of deaths of people who died within 28 days of a positive test result, which does not mean the person died of Covid — although it is likely they did — just that they died following a positive test.

    These are the figures collated on the government’s Covid-19 dashboard — a way of keeping the public informed on a daily basis — which appear nightly on the TV news.

    The most comprehensive figures, and the ones trusted by the medical establishment, are those published every week by the ONS (Office for National Statistics). They reflect what doctors responsible for a patient in their final illness write on death certificates to the ‘best of [their] knowledge and belief’ whether the deceased has tested positive for Covid or not. One reason for this wording is that some studies have found that one in five swabs may give false negatives; so everything depends on the doctor.

    It is the area which is causing the most controversy, especially in care homes, which account for a quarter of all Covid deaths.

    One of the reasons is because the rules surrounding certifying a death have been relaxed during the pandemic.

    In the past, the certifying doctor needed to be treating the patient or know them and have seen them recently. But during this emergency period, when doctors are under increasing pressure — or self-isolating — there is no requirement for them to have examined the patient. A video-link consultation in the four weeks prior to death (extended from 14 days) is now sufficient for a death to be attributed to Covid.

    It was an on-call doctor, not the regular care home doctor, remember, who said Jessie Wylde died from Covid, a clinical decision which her family successfully challenged by having her death certificate changed.

    ‘Doctors in this situation sometimes neither have the time or the necessary back-up to reach the right conclusion,’ said Daily Mail columnist Dr Martin Scurr, a former GP and consultant in palliative care.

    Hancock: ‘Number of cases down to 1 in 145’ but decline is slowing

    ‘They often have to rely on the reports of care home staff, many of whom do not have formal medical training. Inevitably, in these circumstances, certificates can be issued which look right but turn out to be wrong.’

    And any reference to Covid on a death certificate, either directly as an underlying cause or as a contributory cause, and the death will be recorded as a Covid death in the ONS statistics.

    Covid is a ‘notifiable disease’, and doctors have a legal duty to report any incidence of the virus.

    Might this explain what the doctor at the care home in Wolverhampton, where Jessie Wylde died, meant when he was challenged by her son after discovering his mother was about to become ‘another statistic’?

    ‘Doctors are encouraged to put down Covid on death certificates,’ Mr Wylde was allegedly told, when the doctor tried to explain why she had been wrongly classed as a Covid victim.

    It is hard not to avoid the suspicion that the default diagnosis of overstretched, under-pressure GPs is to mention Covid somewhere on the death certificate.

    ‘Death certification has never been a precise science,’ a recent article by a consultant in geriatrics and acute general medicine in the British Medical Journal reported.

    The consultant said that ‘sometimes there is a cluster of simultaneous acute problems which we could easily switch as they all happened so close together and were all serious.’

    Few are better placed to offer an opinion on this matter than Stephen Johnston, a funeral director from Cumbria.

    ‘I have arranged funerals for quite a lot of people whose families have disputed Covid-19 being put down as the main cause of death when they don’t think it should have been,’ he said.

    ‘In a number of cases, the deceased has gone into hospital already seriously ill from life-threatening conditions, such as COPD, heart disease, kidney disease, liver failure and cancer, having had three or four negative Covid tests. While in hospital, they have had another test, which is positive, and then passed away and the death is recorded as Covid.

    ‘I think families are upset because there is a little bit of stigma attached to a Covid death that people don’t like. They are more comfortable with very elderly family members passing away peacefully in their sleep.’

    The Office for National Statistics found Covid cases had halved in a fortnight across England. It said 373,300 would be detected in any given day over the period to February 19

    One of the families we spoke to was that of Tony Ennos, 96, who was receiving end of life care when, two days before his death, he tested positive, which meant Covid went on the death certificate. ‘He died of heart failure, not Covid,’ his son Richard said.

    David Brighouse, 72, was terminally ill with Multiple System Atrophy, a rare neurodegenerative disorder, but tested positive shortly before his death, which meant Covid went on the death certificate. ‘I feel strongly that Dad died of his existing illness,’ his daughter Julie said.

    It was a similar story for David Sutcliffe, 81, who suffered from vascular dementia and Alzheimer’s, and had been clear of Covid for more than six months before he died last October. And publishing giant Naim Attallah, 89 — believed to be suffering from terminal cancer — whose death was nonetheless attributed to Covid when he died in February. His last test came back clear, and he’d even been vaccinated against the virus four weeks before his death.

    The complexity of the different recording methods makes it difficult to estimate the scale of the shortcomings highlighted today.

    What is undeniable is that record numbers of people have been dying since the pandemic began; this is not fake news.

    But are the statistics always telling the whole truth?

    We were shocked – it’s just not right
    When Ted McMahon died two months short of his diamond wedding anniversary, his three children — one of whom is a nurse — believed a stroke had killed him.
    Yet his death certificate stated he had died from Covid-19, despite testing negative for the virus just four days before he passed away at Charnwood Oaks care home in Shepshed, Leics.

    He died aged 84 on May 3 last year, six days after running a high temperature the home believed was Covid.
    A test on April 30 came back as negative and his daughter Debbie McMahon, a nurse, put the high temperature down to an undetected stroke, according to his other daughter, Julie Perkins. Civil servant Mrs Perkins, 57, said: ‘Debbie spent a lot of time with him leading up to his death and she believes he was showing all the signs of having had a stroke.
    ‘So we were extremely shocked when the GP wrote he’d died of the virus on his death certificate, despite the negative test result four days before he died. It’s just not right.’
    … and the families who fought back

    WE COULDN’T SAY GOODBYE TO HIM

    On his death certificate, the cause of office cleaner Maurice Cummings’ demise was given as ‘Clinical Covid-19 Pneumonia’.

    Just hours before he died on the Avon ward at Warwick Hospital on July 10 last year, he had been tested for the virus and the result, just as it was in the two he’d had in the previous seven weeks, was negative.

    Mr Cummings, who would have been 77 on Monday this week, had never tested positive for the virus and showed no symptoms, his bewildered family say.

    When they asked why his death had been attributed to coronavirus by the doctor who signed the certificate, the family say they were told by the hospital’s bereavement officer: ‘We didn’t detect the virus but some doctors still like to put it on the certificate.’

    Mr Cummings, a father-of-two from Warwickshire with four grandchildren and two great-grandchildren, was admitted to the hospital days earlier after becoming unwell and unresponsive at home.

    His wife Pauline believed his ill health was the result of years of osteoporosis and sclerosis.

    The couple’s eldest daughter, Tracey Cummings, 56, said that although the family didn’t challenge the doctor’s judgment, they were ‘suspicious’.

    Ms Cummings, a teaching assistant who lives in Leamington Spa, said: ‘There’s no way he had Covid. He was tested the day he died and the next day the result came back as negative and he had absolutely no symptoms.

    ‘When the bereavement officer phoned us two days later and informed us that’s what it said on his death certificate, we were appalled. She said it was common practice for some doctors.

    ‘To make matters worse, the undertakers told us that because of the Covid factor, we weren’t allowed to say goodbye to him in the chapel of rest, dress him in his favourite clothes and beloved Elvis belt or carry his coffin at his funeral. Instead, they put him in a plain shroud, which Dad would have hated.’

    A hospital spokesperson said: ‘We can’t comment on individual patient cases. In general terms, doctors give the cause of death according to their clinical opinion on the evidence available. They wouldn’t ascribe Covid as the cause of death unless there was clinical evidence to support that.

    ‘The causes of death on the death certificate are checked by the Medical Examiner for deaths. It is well described that in some patients with Covid pneumonia the virus is deep in the lungs and cannot be detected in the nose and throat, so a negative test result could be returned.

    ‘Covid pneumonia can be diagnosed by the clinical presentation and the results of blood tests and the findings on X-rays and CT scans and not solely via a specific Covid test.’

    Mr Cummings’ daughter Tracey last night refuted the notion put forward by the hospital that Covid could have been present in his lungs despite the negative test.

    She said: ‘Dad was admitted into hospital without any obvious Covid symptoms. No high temperature, breathing difficulties, or loss of taste or smell. Covid-19 is a respiratory disease. Surely this would result in breathing difficulties?’

    I knew it wasn’t Covid so I was extremely angry
    Glenis Taylor tested negative for Covid twice in the days before she passed away at the age of 63. Despite this, her death certificate says she died from the virus.
    Her husband of 43 years, Rob, pictured with her, was incensed and demanded a post-mortem. This was sanctioned by a coroner and the examination found no evidence of Covid in her body.
    ‘I was extremely angry when they told me that the consultant had written Covid on the death certificate,’ he said. ‘I knew she didn’t have Covid. She tested negative and so did I.

    ‘I spoke to another doctor and she said: “I can’t see any evidence of Covid here either”.’
    Mr Taylor, 65, from Peterborough, suspects Covid was put down on his healthcare assistant wife’s death certificate to avoid further investigation into how she died.
    He added: ‘I want to know what the real cause of death is. And one of the main reasons I want to know what she died of is if it’s hereditary, I’ve got to tell my three children.’
    Mrs Taylor had been unwell for 18 months before she passed away with osteoarthritis in her knees and bronchial problems.
    She said no one at the hospital had told her the virus could have been present in his lungs despite the negative test.

    I JUST WANT THE TRUTH, THAT’S ALL

    In the weeks before her death, Barbara Bell tested negative for Covid four times. Her husband John was by her side every day in her final week. He never caught the virus.

    Despite this, a doctor wrote on her death certificate that Covid was the main cause of Mrs Bell’s death on October 15, at the age of 71.

    When Mr Bell, 77, challenged this, he was told that Covid was listed because it was difficult to distinguish it from triple pneumonia, which is what she was suffering from. He was unable to change the cause of death on the certificate.

    Mr Bell, from Scunthorpe, said: ‘What would make me feel better, and all the others probably experiencing the same or similar, would be the bloody truth, and that’s all.

    ‘When I spoke to the medical examiner’s office he said because the pneumonia was very similar to Covid they had to put it down as Covid.

    ‘I was angry with him. I said I didn’t want it on the death certificate because it’s not right, but that was the stock answer that I got.’

    He said he and his three daughters were lucky to have been able to visit his wife in Glenfield hospital in Leicester before she died and hold a funeral for her.

    Mr Bell said his daughters also did not catch the virus, despite visiting their mother in the final days

    Mrs Bell, a full-time mother, was the second youngest of 12 children.

    SHE HAD NEVER TESTED POSITIVE

    Sue, a grandmother to seven children, died aged 74 at her Somerset care home on June 3 last year after suffering from chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. She repeatedly tested negative for Covid.

    Nevertheless, her GP blamed the virus for her death. It was only when her furious husband, Alan — who asked not to be identified — contacted the surgery to object that the Covid diagnosis for his wife, a retired sales executive, was withdrawn.

    Alan, 79, said: ‘There was no Covid in the care home and she had never tested positive for it. She’d had no test in the 24 hours before she died.

    ‘I told the surgery there was no way on earth I was allowing them to put the word Covid anywhere near her death certificate and I had to fight tooth and nail to persuade them to see my point of view.’

    The family of flamboyant publishing and magazine king Naim Attallah were stunned to see Covid on his death certificate — when doctors believed he had terminal cancer.

    The colourful Palestinian-born London businessman went to see his physician in Harley Street on December 9, 2020, complaining of stomach pains and was admitted to University College Hospital the same day.

    Between admission to the ward on December 9 and his death on February 9, he had four Covid tests and only the third was positive. The last one, four days after the positive one, came back clear.

    He showed no symptoms of Covid and had been vaccinated against the virus four weeks before his death.

    Doctors suspected his stomach pains were due to cancer but Mr Attallah, 89, pictured with Nigella Lawson, declined procedures to confirm their suspicions because they were too invasive.

    His son Ramsay said: ‘It is ridiculous what they wrote on the death certificate. The funeral director said they are dealing with family upon family saying Covid was not the cause of their loved one’s death.’

  7. @ Adam Dalgliesh:
    My only interest in the vaccine, is to take it and get on with life. You did make a quote, though, of something which, in a sane environment, could only be hilarious satire:

    “Bill Gates has said in public that the world’s population must be reduced by more than 95 per cent in order to avoid a global catastrophe caused by global warming,”

    Unless “global warming” kills 95% of humanity, the cure far exceeds the disease.

  8. Evidence keeps piling up that the “pandemic” is a complete hoax. This is from today’s (December 17, 2020 EST) Arutz Sheva:

    Prof. Yoram Lass: ‘Either there’s no plague, or they tested the wrong population’

    Former Health Ministry Director: ‘No convincing evidence mortality dropped for simple reason no one died from COVID-19 in entire sample.’

    Former Health Ministry Director Professor Yoram Lass today responded to remarks by Health Minister Yuli Edelstein regarding COVID-19 vaccine efficacy, telling Arutz Sheva: “There is no vaccine approval. There is emergency vaccine approval. In an emergency vaccine, it is mandatory to go straight to the at-risk population.”

    Professor Lass continued: “Vaccinate nursing homes in the U.S. and the elderly, and prove that there is a decrease in mortality and serious morbidity. In practice, they tested only 1,500 aged 75+ people out of 44,000 experimented on.

    “There is no convincing evidence that mortality has dropped for the simple reason that no one died from COVID-19 in Pfizer’s entire sample. Not even in the placebo group that actually got nothing.

    “In the ‘terrible’ raging plague, the placebo group should have had many people dead from COVID-19 (not from a heart attack…)”

    Professor Lass concluded: “As mentioned, the placebo group had zero COVID-19 deaths. So either there is no plague, or they tested the wrong population.”

    Regarding Moderna’s vaccine, the FDA Vaccines and Related Biological Products Advisory Committee Meeting Presentation document claims a 66% reduction in transmissions based on 52 people, that is, “14 in the vaccine group and 38 in the placebo group”.

    The Health Minister was addressing the Knesset Labor, Welfare, and Health Committee, to present Committee Members with an overview of the government COVID-19 vaccination program, due to commence next week.

    He said: “I am absolutely confident in the safety of the vaccines. They have been tested in every possible way…. I am completely satisfied that things are proceeding exactly as they should.”

    The testimony comes amid government concerns over polls showing up to 75% of Israelis unwilling to chance the new COVID-19 vaccine.

    You don’t like Globalresearch (they took the article from another website), maybe you’ll believe this (at least some of the Russian companies listed here are the ones that were involved with creating the vaccine):

    The ERC has determined to add 33rd Scientific Research and Testing Institute; 48th Central Scientific Research Institute, Kirov; 48th Central Scientific Research Institute, Sergiev Posad; 48th Central Scientific Research Institute, Yekaterinburg; and State Scientific Research Institute of Organic Chemistry and Technology under the destination of Russia, based on their involvement with the Russian military. Specifically, the ERC has reasonable cause to believe that 33rd Scientific Research and Testing Institute is a Ministry of Defense facility associated with the Russian chemical program and chemical weapons testing range, and that State Scientific Research Institute of Organic Chemistry and Technology is a Russian Ministry of Defense facility associated with the Russian chemical weapons program. The ERC also has reasonable cause to believe that 48th Central Scientific Research Institute, Kirov; 48th Central Scientific Research Institute, Sergiev Posad; and 48th Central Scientific Research Institute, Yekaterinburg are Ministry of Defense facilities associated with the Russian biological weapons program.

    Maybe they should have sanctioned the Hadassah Hospital for working with the Russkies?

    I have an Apple Mac computer, so maybe that has something to do with why I can’t get access. But the fact is, when I type the URL for the Bitchute site, the video is nowhere to be found onn the site.

    How could I get access to your servers?

    I don’t even know what server my computer is using. How would I find this out?

  14. @ Adam Dalgliesh:
    Video plays ok via servers in NY and DC. I even switched to an Israeli server and it played just fine.

    You can use a good VPN (Virtual Private Network) to hide your IP address and access the web via servers in other countries. I use ExpressVPN, which is quite fast and very reliable.

  15. I just checked YouTube, and discovered the video can still be found on a number of small private YouTube sites, although not on the Bitchute web site. I don’t know why or by whom it was blocked on Bitchute.

    A YouTube site called called “Lui” first shows Allen Deshowitz claiming that the state has the right to manatorily vaccinate you, prevent you from leaving your house, etc., in order to prevent the spread of the disease. These claims by Dershowitz are even scarier than the Italin doctor’s warning. Taken together, they are absolutely terrifying.

    The video itself, by an Italian physician, is terrifying. While I think some of his assertions are probably exeggerated, he is certainly correct that the vaccines for COVID-19 may prove to be very dangerous.

    There may also an element of truth in the doctor’s assertion that the SARS CoV-2-19 virus has been created and a “pandemic” declared as part of a conspiracy.

    Bill Gates has said in public that the world’s population must be reduced by more than 95 per cent in order to avoid a global catastrophe caused by global warming, air and water pollution. His Bill and Melinda Gates foundation has tested out a supposed tetanus vaccine that sterilized the women who were inocculated. This test was conducted in Kenya, on uneducated, illterate peasant women. And there were several vaccines that caused a high death rate that the Foundation experimented with on “Third World” uneducated women.

    “Event 201,” sponsored and financed by the Gates Foundation and MC’d by Gates, “predicted” a new “coronavirus” that would kill up to 65 million people. The SARS-CoV-2-19 virus was discovered in Wuhan, and the first COVID-19 cases were reported, only ten months later. A British immunologist from Oxford University, who is also a genetics researcher , thinks that the virus probably originated at around the same time as the Event 201 conference.

    I do think that Gates is contemplating all sorts of very drastic measures, including mass sterilization or even mass murder, in order to bring about what he calls “population control.”

  16. When I tried to open this video, I just got some wavy lines on the control lines. No video. When I went to the main Bitchute site, the video could not be found.

    I did find many other videos there, but not this one. Google had an entry for the video, but when I clicked it, I got a Bitchute page that did not include the video.The Bitchute site did contain a statement from the editors that several of its videos have been censored and removed by Youtube. My guess is that this is one of them.

    I did find another video on the Bitchute site, named “Boshevik Revolution 2020, which produced the same result when I pressed the ‘go” button–wavy lines on the control line, no sound, no video. Probably has suffered the same fate as YouTube.

    Maybe Youtube has less ability to block videos in Israel. Or Ted may have an app that prevents them from doing this.

    Could you investigate and report back to us about this situation, Ted? Also, any of our readers in the states and Canada who has watched or tried to watch this video.
