1/ There is just no easy way to say this:
The recent UK and Euromomo death figures are frightening. In the last few weeks, deaths have surged to higher than any point since early 2021...
2/ And those numbers are much worse than they seem. They follow a YEAR of high excess non-Covid deaths (not to mention earlier Covid waves in 2020 and 2021 which mostly targeted the very old and sick and should mean that deaths now are LOWER than normal)...
3/ The weather can't be blamed. In fact, this winter has been very warm in Europe. There's efforts to blame delayed medical care or "long Covid" look sillier by the week; they do not fit the pattern of what we're seeing...
4/ I take no pleasure in writing any of this. NONE. With the exception of my immediate family, almost everyone I know has had the mRNAs. But it is time to stop pretending that the obvious explanation is not the obvious explanation and start looking for underlying mechanisms...
5/ We already know these shots are causing long-term immune system changes in a way no one predicted. What we don't know is what those changes may mean. We need to find out, instead of pretending they're not happening...
6/ If deaths go back to normal in a few weeks, great. We STILL need to do this research - and lots of other work that we skipped in 2020. But at this point the media and government silence around these numbers is only going to feed conspiracy theories.
