Matthew Crawford on Society’s Increasing Obsession with ‘Health and Safety’ Culture

One of the visible knock-on effects of the COVID crisis has been a clear acceleration by government and corporations toward a more automated society, or more aptly called the Fourth Industrial Revolution.

Dr Vernon Coleman: Bill Gates, Governments and Their Empire of COVID ‘Stuff’

There’s just a few too many coincidences surrounding this Coronavirus crisis and the incessant promotion of “stuff” by governments, the World Health Organization, and their corporate and ‘philanthropic’ foundation sponsors.

A Dangerous Lie: Britain’s COVID Response Was Ad Hockery – Never Based on Real Science

Oxford Experts: ‘There is No Scientific Evidence for COVID Two Metre Rule’

While other countries and societies are getting back to life as normal, in Britain, the social distancing folly continues. For whatever reason, UK government officials seem desperate to cling to the crisis, and impose new restrictions every week which are only really effective at one thing: hampering business and trade.

Leading UK Doctor: ‘Coronavirus Could Be Gone Before Any Vaccine Arrives’

Leading oncologist Professor Karol Sikora raised eyebrows last month when he said a COVID-19 vaccine may not be needed. In this recent news segment, he explains how the coronavirus may eventually just ‘peter out’ long before any much-awaited vaccine ever arrives. But is he right? And what does this mean for the government’s ambitious new mass-testing and contact tracing regime?
