Well well, Dr Clare Craig writing for the Daily Sceptic has produced a piece based upon the Scottish Covid Inquiry, a piece which concludes that most of the "deaths by Covid" were not caused by the virus.
So far so correct ...
But that's as far as the "correct" goes.
" ... the fact is that viral spread was driven by long distance aerosol transmission, not close contact. Care homes that refused Covid patients still had outbreaks and deaths."
Call me old-fashioned, but where is her evidence for this "long distance aerosol transmission"?
Fully qualified and experienced former Pfizer vice-president working with respiratory diseases Mike Yeadon points out that there are no scientific papers which demonstrate infection by aerosol transmission. Even at close range. All such trials including those undertaken at the time of the 1918 "Spanish Flu" pandemic failed to transmit the disease.
So, like everybody else, Dr Clare Craig failed the basic "due diligence" test.
Who checked the one fundamental plank upon which the notion of the "pandemic" was 100% dependent?
The notion that the test result was actually accurate?
Despite the likely errors in testing laboratories that had been rolled out across the country in record time to cope with the expected flood, that duly arrived to be coped with by inexperienced and quite possibly poorly trained and poorly led staff working under pressure?
Who tested the testers?
No test is 100% accurate, not even good ones, so why were no steps taken to verify that the Covid Test actually worked to a required standard of accuracy?
For the very good reason that no symptoms were specific only to the C virus, the test result was the ONLY factor used to determine whether somebody had "caught the virus". So all false positive results were counted as C cases, along with any true positives. But what was the ratio of false to true?
If you are testing within a uninfected population, all positive results will be false - and you will have a good measure of the accuracy of the test. This was actually done in the summer of 2020, when testing was moved out into the general population ("Testing! Testing! Testing!") and the narrative segued seamlessly to reporting "cases" rather than "deaths" (which by then were in vanishingly short supply).
And strangely enough, during the pandemic the NHS's own figures showed that Flu had virtually disappeared ... so quite plausibly all of the test results could have been flu cases ...
So was flu (including "flu-like") the real cause of the C deaths?
If so, where was "the pandemic"?
