It’s felt like a momentous week and not just because the weather has finally turned for us over in the UK. We’d forgotten what the sun looked like. But as the sun appeared, so too did around a million people who gathered in London last Saturday to send a strong message to the Government – and the media. If you know London at all, then you will recognise the size of a march where the head had reached Shepherds Bush whilst the tail was still in Oxford Street. It was a peaceful, dare I say loving, demonstration of solidarity, unity and freedom. It was also citizen power in action. These marches started small, with just a few thousand last year. How long will the media blackout remain when the numbers swell into the millions?
It’s also the week where Rob Verkerk became a grandfather for the second time this year! He’s meeting his second grand-daughter for the first time today which is why I’m standing in his stead.
When you read our lead piece revealing leaked information that Pfizer and the regulators that approved the BioNTech/Pfizer covid vaccine for emergency use knew, but chose not to tell the public, you may feel like joining the next march wherever that may be for you. The lack of transparency and the revolving doors involved in such action is breathtaking, but also downright dangerous because of the serious health implications that could affect many people. You’ll also find a link to a brand new report revealing how much science and business between vaccine companies and governments has been conducted behind closed doors, in secret.
Rob has interviewed the renowned ivermectin researcher and advocate, Dr Tess Lawrie for our Speaking Naturally series. Dr Lawrie, both a medical doctor and a PhD scientist with a very distinguished career, became interested in ivermectin for the treatment of covid-19 late last year. Instead of being honoured for her research, she’s been censored, deplatformed and pilloried. Her interview gives a fascinating insight into how such a humble drug with massive success credentials has become has become so political.
In our fourth week of our Right to kNOw campaign I speak up alongside other citizen and patient champions. I am not alone in having lost a few decades of my life to illness driven by autoimmune disease. Neither am I alone in having worked hard to regain my health and vitality. However, that process changes you because health becomes so incredibly precious. It’s why stigmatization and discrimination according to vaccine status needs to stop and be replaced by respect, compassion and empathy.
Our weekly news is jam packed. There’s just so much going on, but we’ve kept it skimmingly brief and bite-sized!
From little acorns, come large oak trees. From many citizen actions comes dynamic change. It’s good to stand with you whilst we create the shift that we want to see in our world.
In health, naturally
