Let’s go back to school

Create a massive PR machine that makes people fearful of the coronavirus, censor a pile of information that attempts to fill in the gaping information gaps left by the authorities, have ministers contradict each other – and the UK government wonders why there’s so much reticence among teachers and parents about reopening the schools?

I’ve done my best to summarise the science around kids and Covid while also proposing a science-based strategy for school reopening. All in this week’s video coronacast – along with a transcript for the readers among you. We’ve had teachers come to us wanting scientific ammunition to get kids back to school – and primary school teachers and behavioural scientists telling us the travesty that would be caused by social distancing the lit’luns. We hope it’s useful.

In our second piece we give you an update about the underbelly of the issues that have been filling our airwaves, from mortality rates, to masks, from tests to vitamin D.

We’re incredibly grateful to you, our supporters and readers, for the sharing of our materials this last week. The huge spike in traffic on our website and the sharing on social media shows that people power can overcome Big Tech’s remit to censor social media platforms, limit free speech and basic civil liberties. So please – once again – share avidly.

We find it heartening that when we look back at the articles and videos we first wrote and made on Covid-19 back in March, we haven’t once had to change our tune. The same can’t be said of a lot of governments, despite all the expert scientific advice to which they’re exposed daily.

It goes some way to validate our decision 18 years ago to establish a non-profit that was dedicated to natural health, independent from vested interests, and based on what we’ve always called ‘good science’ and ‘good law’. As you know, we operate only on donations – and the bottom link on this email takes you to Paypal’s secure online payment platform. You don’t need to have a Paypal account to make a donation – Paypal simply acts as the merchant on our behalf. We’re grateful for any donations to help us do more to help you – and to get our message out more widely to help others. Thank you for all your support.
