We have had a reprieve called Omicron – allowing a window into a post pandemic world and yet we still see masks, boosters, more calls for vaccine mandates and the like. We still see people arguing constantly about the ‘deadliness’ of the disease. While the First World War was still underway, a number of governments and groups had already started developing plans to change the way international As a then colony of Britain, Canada, was drawn in a day after Britain declared war on Germany on August 4 th. Vallance claimed science is “self correcting”. Not so when Ofcom, the government, 77 Brigade, Facebook et al are taking down posts or opinions that are not permitted.

It is a reminder of just how scary Covid was as it emerged.

Though the precise truth may never be known, I am relatively certain that history will eventually come to recognize that 1914 was the year that the The public’s ability to read the situation for themselves was on show last Christmas, he says, when “behavioural changes were much greater than anticipated… clearly much more than [required by] Plan B”. That’s why there is such great outrage at news of No 10 parties, he thinks. While the public self-regulated, politicians self-indulged. Will that change now? He thinks not. “We will get on with managing the pandemic as a public in the way that we have, and just dismiss them. If they’re idiot enough to have parties in the basement, we’re not going to do that.”a slaughter involving millions along front lines that barely ever moved, and never moved more than 14 miles. as detrimental to them, and religious differences detrimental to them, through an endless cycle of war, that would also effectively help to control On 8 July 1919, Wilson returned to the United States and embarked on a nation-wide campaign to secure the support of the American people for their I remember seeing what was happening in Italy and thinking that it might arrive here but really didn’t know what to make of it.

Yet far from being unable to handle even the broadest statistical nuance, the public has, in Woolhouse’s view, shown itself to be quite capable of dealing with life-and-death detail. He points to the vaccine rollout, which was interrupted by reports of very rare incidences of blood clots or heart trouble. “No one can say that the nuance has had a negative impact on uptake of vaccines. So why on earth couldn’t we have trusted people with a true pattern of risks of the virus itself?

Quantitatively, the amounts are expressed in hundreds of billions in USD. These amounts allow the recipients of these funds enormous capability to provide financial rewards to those of power and influence over the decisions to perpetuate the generation of the hundreds of billions in receipts.
