Addit: 2 November. Since sharing this blog yesterday, the following has happened, which reveals the apolitical nature of the man that he could make such an error of judgement, and his character that he can openly apologise. The level of vitriol being hurled at him in response has been disturbing. Listening to Scott Atlas speak, … More Proud to be an Outlier

In 2020 Care Homes have been turned into places of punishment and despair. The elderly deserve to see their families and loved ones. This can be done by listening to the experts who are calling for protection of the vulnerable. Instead fragile lives are ending early as people give up, stop eating, and die of … More The Care Home Travesty
At no time in years of public health training and experience did I ever hear of using “lockdown” as a strategy to control an epidemic.

How is this normal or acceptable? Hi ya folks. I just want to say. It’s just been like a prison in here. We’re shut down. We can’t see our family. And I think when you’re my age, you deserve to see your family. And so what you want is a lot of happy faces, round … More Stop the Nonsense
Scott Atlas is this year’s leading lionheart in my view. He is an academic with zero political aspirations who entered the White House at significant personal cost. Regardless of which political side he appears to be on, the reason he entered the White House was “because the President of the United States asked me, a … More Lionhearts of 2020
I have been incredibly confused by WHO over the past six months. Their 2019, well-researched systematic review on appropriate pandemic responses was completely disregarded. Their lack of leadership was surpassed only by their contradictory messaging. Their focus on one virus to the detriment of all else whilst occasionally making announcements of poverty doubling, 120 million … More Confused By World Health Organisation?
