Great article and I highly recommend people watch the YouTube presentation all the way through. I have two points that I think are really important to emphasise:

1) This is the fourth wave, not the third wave. The 2nd and 3rd waves happened in Nov and Dec 2020. Just because they were so close together does not mean they were the same wave. The 2nd wave was well on the way down when Johnson released restrictions on 2nd Dec, which then caused a reversal and then a massive spike in infections, hospital admissions and deaths (the 3rd wave). We are now in the fourth wave, which has also been caused by the removal of restrictions - in May and June.

2) Herd immunity is a very soft and not very accurate way of describing the government's current policy of unlock and do nothing. It is much more than a dereliction of their duty of care to the nation. The deliberate policy of allowing infections to rip through a population only half of which is vaccinated, in full knowledge that it will affect and likely kill the weakest and most vulnerable is properly called eugenics. Killing off the elderly (which has already happened to a large degree) is properly called euthanasia but targeting the weak and vulnerable is eugenics. The government's policy is deliberate and informed by the facts. It is a psychopathic implementation of eugenics.

So let's stop talking about 'herd immunity' because many people don't understand the implications of the term in any case. It's eugenics, eugenics, eugenics...

Great article Carol and think it covers comprehensively what the politically doctrinaire chimps in suits are doing. The policy satisfies the eugenicist world view behind it and the policy aim of setting up the NHS to fail so privatisation can be justified notwithstanding the estimated 40k to 50k nursing shortage. It would be great if this was shareable to Facebook and MiWi. Loved the TED talk on dark ads by the way which I shared widely - we live in tough times and there is a Tolkienesque battle going on between the dark forces of a psychopathic oligarchy taking is to oblivion and those who want truth, freedom and justice, so I'm with you 😁
