World’s pre-eminent infectious disease epidemiologist explains how lockdowns don’t protect anyone
In Brief
- The Facts:
Dr. Sunetra Gupta, an Oxford professor who is regarded by many as the world's pre-eminent infectious disease epidemiologist explains that lockdowns have done nothing to protect people from covid, and that they have caused a great deal of harm.
- Reflect On:
Do government health authorities really have our best interests at heart, or do they act in favour of measures that benefit the rich and the powerful? Why are so many of the world's leading scientists being censored?
It’s quite odd how so many of the world’s leading scientists have collectively opposed lockdown measures and presented data in the form of published peer-reviewed scientific literature showing they are completely ineffective for stopping the spread of covid (and will kill more people than covid) yet these scientists get absolutely no attention. When they do get attention they are ridiculed and made out to seem as if they are in the minority. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, the mainstream can make the majority seem like the minority, and the minority seem like the majority. Based on my research, there is an overwhelmingly large amount of people within the medical and scientific community who completely oppose the measures being taken and the recommendations being made by government health authorities when it comes to combating covid.
The censorship of science during this pandemic has been unprecedented. Numerous renowned scientists have brought attention to this, including Dr. Sunetra Gupta, who is regarded by many as the world’s pre-eminent infectious disease epidemiologist. Herself, along with Dr. Martin Kulldorff, professor of medicine at Harvard University, a biostatistician, and Dr. Jay Bhattacharya, professor at Stanford University Medical School, a physician and epidemiologist, are the initiators of The Great Barrington Declaration.
Censorship is taking its toll on many. For example, a letter to the editor published in the New England Journal of Medicine titled “Open Schools, Covid-19, and Child and Teacher Morbidity in Sweden” has found that “Despite Sweden’s having kept schools and preschools open, we found a low incidence of severe Covid-19 among schoolchildren and children of preschool age during the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic…No child with Covid-19 died…Among the 1,951,905 children who were 1 to 16 years of age, 15 children had Covid-19, MIS-C, or both conditions and were admitted to an ICU, which is equal to 1 child in 130,000.”
It was published by Jonas F. Ludvigsson, a paediatrician at Örebro University Hospital and professor of clinical epidemiology at the Karolinska Institute. He recently announced that he is quitting his work on covid-19 because of harassment from people who dislike what he discovered. You can read more about that here.
Science is being suppressed for political and financial gain. Covid-19 has unleashed state corruption on a grand scale, and it is harmful to public health. Politicians and industry are responsible for this opportunistic embezzlement. So too are scientists and health experts. The pandemic has revealed how the medical-political complex can be manipulated in an emergency – a time when it is even more important to safeguard science. – Dr. Kamran Abbasi, former executive editor of the British Medical Journal, editor of the Bulletin of the World Health Organization.
Below is a rare and informative interview with Gupta if you’re interested. It’s strange how someone like Dr. Anthony Fauci can achieve instant virality and go on any television station he wants, along with other political scientists who seem to be going with the grain, yet when renowned experts present the type of information and opinions seen in this interview, it remains unacknowledged.
The Takeaway: Just like 9/11, covid has been a large catalyst for many people to question what’s really happening on our planet, why we live the way we do and why we continue to give so much power to people who may not be acting in our best interest. It really calls into question the idea whether or not governments should have the authority to force people into certain measures when so many disagree with them. Should people not have the right to look at information and decide for themselves what is and what isn’t? Should governments have the ability to take away our rights and freedoms under the guise of good will, or the claim of good will when there is so much evidence that suggests otherwise? Something to think about.
We (Collective Evolution) have written a number of articles on this subject explaining the harms of lockdown measures, and we continue to do so simply because this perspective is not being shared at all by mainstream media. There is no balance when it comes to mainstream media, and they continue to fail to have appropriate conversations about viewpoints they deem “controversial.”
