Council of Europe condemns "unjustified scare" over swine flu pandemic 2009	British Medical Journal	Jun 7 2010	The Council of Europe has heavily criticised the World Health Organization, national governments, and EU agencies for their handling of the swine flu pandemic. // The parliamentary assembly ... published a draft report - how the H1N1 pandemic was handled. // National governments, WHO, and EU agencies had all been guilty of actions that led to a "waste of large sums of public money, and unjustified scares and fears about the health risks faced by the European public," says the report.
European Parliament to Investigate WHO and "Pandemic" Scandal	William Engdahl	Jan 26 2010	The Council of Europe member states will launch an inquiry in January 2010 on the influence of the pharmaceutical companies on the global swine flu campaign, focusing especially on extent of the pharma's industry's influence on WHO. The Health Committee of the EU Parliament has unanimously passed a resolution calling for the inquiry.

These restrictive policies were ineffective and devastating failures, causing immense harm especially to the poorer and vulnerable within societies.

The Birth of the Bio-state	Thomas Fazi, UnHerd	Nov 2022	Not only is the NHS falling short of its original aim of providing free and adequate healthcare for all, but, as something meant to liberate human beings from the threat of disease, public health is slowly being transformed into an instrument of social control.
Covid-19 is not a pandemic	Richard Horton, Lancet	Sept 26 2020	The story of COVID-19 is not so simple. Two categories of disease are interacting: respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) and an array of non-communicable diseases (NCDs). COVID-19 is not a pandemic. It is a syndemic.

The Left's Covid Failure	Thomas Fazi with Toby Green	Nov 23 2021	How Left & Right were polarised early in the pandemic. In the early lockdown phase, it was those leaning towards the cultural and economic right who were more likely to emphasise the social, economic and psychological damage resulting from lockdowns. Trump's lockdown scepticism made this position untenable for most of those leaning towards the cultural and economic Left. Social media algorithms then further fuelled this polarisation. Very quickly, therefore, Western leftists embraced lockdown, seen as a "pro-life" and "pro-collective" choice - a policy that, in theory, championed public health or the collective right to health. Meanwhile any criticism of the lockdowns was excoriated as a "right-wing", "pro-economy" and "pro-individual" approach, accused of prioritising "profit" and "business as usual" over people's lives.
Why Did the Left Fail So Utterly to Resist the Global Biosecurity State?	Simon Elmer, Daily Sceptic	Nov 11 2022	... the New World Order being forced upon us outside of any democratic process is capitalist in its economic infrastructure, fascist in its governmental, juridical and ideological superstructure and totalitarian in its aims. So why do those who, however mistakenly, self-identify as of the political Left continue to be its noisiest and blindest cheerleaders?

Legacy Media & Silicon Valley Fact Checkers The Monopoly on Truth
How Facebook uses 'fact-checking' to suppress scientific truth	New York Post	May 18 2021	Facebook deploys it's fact-checkers 'Science Feedback' to silence and contradict opinion from experts and commentators - even those of the WHO & UNICEF - to insist that mask wearing is only beneficial, and should be mandatory - even for children aged 5 yrs.

Trusted News Initiative (TNI) to combat spread of harmful vaccine disinformation	BBC	Dec 10 2020	Whilst it is important to scrutinise the science behind new Covid-19 vaccines and give voice to legitimate concerns from people wondering what a coronavirus vaccine means for them, questions about levels of immunity and whether a vaccine is appropriate for those with chronic health conditions, it is vital that audiences know they can turn to sources they trust for accurate, impartial information.

The Twitter Files: my paranoia has been vindicated	Mercatornet	Dec 12 2022	Stanford University epidemiologist Dr Jay Bhattacharya was one of Twitter's many victims. I had the pleasure of meeting Dr Bhattacharya earlier this year in Sydney. It would be hard to find a more polite, measured, and thoughtful academic. One of the original drafters of the Great Barrington Declaration, Bhattacharya's great sin was to speak out against Covid lockdowns and school closures from 2020 onwards. "I spent the afternoon yesterday at Twitter HQ at the invitation of @elonmusk to find out more about the trend 'blacklist' that twitter placed on me," Bhattacharya today tweeted. He continued: Twitter 1.0 placed me on the blacklist on the first day I joined in August 2021. I think it was my pinned tweet linking to the @gbdeclaration that triggered the blacklist based on unspecified complaints Twitter received ... Twitter 1.0 rejected requests for verification by me and @MartinKulldorff. Each time the reasoning (never conveyed to us) was that we were not notable enough.
How Can We Ever Trust The Institutions That Have Lied to Us Again and Again?	Abir Ballan, DailySceptic	Jan 11 2023	In the name of 'protecting' the public, the authorities have gone to great lengths to create an illusion of consensus about the appropriate response to COVID-19 - as described in the recently released Twitter files that document collusion between the FBI and social media platforms. They suppressed 'the truth', even when emanating from highly credible scientists, undermining scientific debate and preventing the correction of scientific errors.
The truth about Covid McCarthyism : The elites' blacklisting of lockdown dissenters was shameful and self-destructive.	Brendan O'Niell, Spiked	Dec 19 2022	There were two viruses that the authorities wanted to control in 2020 and 2021. The first was the virus of Covid-19. The second was the virus of dissent. Throughout the pandemic, experts referred to lockdown scepticism and Covid misinformation as their own kind of disease, as a contagious malady that might sicken the masses' minds as surely as Covid sickened their bodies.

From FDA to MHRA: Are drug regulators for hire?
Patients and doctors expect drug regulators to provide an unbiased, rigorous assessment of investigational medicines before they hit the market.

Over the past decades, regulatory agencies have seen large proportions of their budgets funded by the industry they are sworn to regulate. In 1992, the US Congress passed the Prescription Drug User Fee Act (PDUFA), allowing industry to fund the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) directly through "user fees" intended to support the cost of swiftly reviewing drug applications.

Net PDUFA fees collected have increased 30 fold - from around $29m in 1993 to $884m in 2016.(1) In Europe, industry fees funded 20% of the new EU-wide regulator, the European Medicines Agency (EMA), in 1995.

Curing the pandemic of misinformation on COVID-19 mRNA vaccines through real evidence-based medicine
Background: In response to severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), several new pharmaceutical agents have been administered to billions of people worldwide, including the young and healthy at little risk from the virus. Considerable leeway has been afforded in terms of the pre-clinical and clinical testing of these agents, despite an entirely novel mechanism of action and concerning biodistribution characteristics. Aim: To gain a better understanding of the true benefits and potential harms of the messenger ribonucleic acid (mRNA) coronavirus disease (COVID) vaccines. Methods: A narrative review of the evidence from randomised trials and real world data of the COVID mRNA products with special emphasis on BionTech/Pfizer vaccine. Results: In the non-elderly population the "number needed to treat" to prevent a single death runs into the thousands. Re-analysis of randomised controlled trials using the messenger ribonucleic acid (mRNA) technology suggests a greater risk of serious adverse events from the vaccines than being hospitalised from COVID-19. Pharmacovigilance systems and real-world safety data, coupled with plausible mechanisms of harm, are deeply concerning, especially in relation to cardiovascular safety. Mirroring a potential signal from the Pfizer Phase 3 trial, a significant rise in cardiac arrest calls to ambulances in England was seen in 2021, with similar data emerging from Israel in the 16-39 year-old age group. Conclusion: It cannot be said that the consent to receive these agents was fully informed, as is required ethically and legally. A pause and reappraisal of global vaccination policies for COVID-19 is long overdue. Contribution: This article highlights the importance of addressing metabolic health to reduce chronic disease and that insulin resistance is also a major risk factor for poor outcomes from COVID-19.

The Unintended Consequences of COVID-19 Vaccine Policy, Date May 5 2022.
Why Mandates, Passports, and Segregated Lockdowns May Cause more Harm than Good

Abstract

Vaccination policies have shifted dramatically during COVID-19 with the rapid emergence of population-wide vaccine mandates, domestic vaccine passports, and differential restrictions based on vaccination status. These policies have prompted ethical, scientific, practical, and political controversy; however, there has been limited evaluation of their potential unintended consequences. Here, we outline a comprehensive set of hypotheses for why these policies may be counter-productive and harmful.

Our framework considers four domains:
1) behavioral psychology,
2) politics and law,
3) socioeconomics, and
4) the integrity of science and public health.

While COVID-19 vaccines have had a profound impact on decreasing global morbidity and mortality burdens, we argue that current population-wide mandatory vaccine policies are scientifically questionable, ethically problematic, and misguided. Such policies may lead to detrimental long-term impacts on uptake of future public health measures, including COVID-19 vaccines themselves as well as routine immunizations. Restricting people's access to work, education, public transport, and social life based on COVID-19 vaccination status impinges on human rights, promotes stigma and social polarization, and adversely affects health and wellbeing. Mandating vaccination is one of the most powerful interventions in public health and should be used sparingly and carefully to uphold ethical norms and trust in scientific institutions. We argue that current COVID-19 vaccine policies should be reevaluated in light of negative consequences that may outweigh benefits. Leveraging empowering strategies based on trust and public consultation represent a more sustainable approach for protecting those at highest risk of COVID-19 morbidity and mortality and the health and wellbeing of the public.

Introduction

Since 2021, mandatory proof-of-vaccination policies have been implemented and justified by governments and the scientific community to control COVID-19. These policies, initiated across the political spectrum, including in most liberal democracies, have spread globally and have involved: workplace mandates (eg, a 'no jab, no job' US federal mandate); green passes/vaccine passports that limit access to social activities and travel (eg, Israel, Australia, Canada, New Zealand and most European countries); school-based mandates (eg, most North American universities); differential lockdowns for the unvaccinated (eg, Austria and Australia); the use of vaccine metrics in lifting lockdowns and other restrictions (eg, Australia, Canada and New Zealand); differential access to medical insurance and healthcare (eg, Singapore); and mandatory population-wide vaccination with taxes, fines, and imprisonment for the unvaccinated (eg, the Philippines, Austria, Greece).

The Unintended Consequences of Covid-19 Vaccination Policies
Behavioural psychology	Political & legal effects	Socio-economics	Integrity of science & public health
Reactance & entrenchment Cognitive Dissonance Stigma & scapegoating Conspiracy theories & distrust	Erosion of civil liberties Polarization & the anti-vac movement Disunity in global health governance	Disparity & inequality Reduced health system capacity Exclusion from work & social life	Erosion of informed consent Erosion of trust in public health Erosion of trust in regulatory oversight

The publicly communicated rationale for implementing such policies has shifted over time. Early messaging around COVID-19 vaccination as a public health response measure focused on protecting the most vulnerable. This quickly shifted to vaccination thresholds to reach herd immunity and 'end the pandemic' and 'get back to normal' once sufficient vaccine supply was available.1 2 In late summer of 2021, this pivoted again to a universal vaccination recommendation to reduce hospital/intensive care unit (ICU) burden in Europe and North America, to address the 'pandemic of the unvaccinated'.

COVID-19 vaccines have represented a critical intervention during the pandemic given consistent data of vaccine effectiveness averting COVID-19-related morbidity and mortality.3-6 However, the scientific rationale for blanket mandatory vaccine policies has been increasingly challenged due to waning sterilising immunity and emerging variants of concern.7 A growing body of evidence shows significant waning effectiveness against infection (and transmission) at 12-16 weeks, with both Delta and Omicron variants,8-13 including with third-dose shots.14 15 Since early reports of post-vaccination transmission in mid-2021, it has become clear that vaccinated and unvaccinated individuals, once infected, transmit to others at similar rates.16 Vaccine effectiveness may also be lower in younger age groups.17 While higher rates of hospitalisation and COVID-19-associated morbidity and mortality can indeed be observed among the unvaccinated across all age groups,3-6 broad-stroke passport and mandate policies do not seem to recognise the extreme risk differential across populations (benefits are greatest in older adults), are often justified on the basis of reducing transmission and, in many countries, ignore the protective role of prior infection..18 19

Mandate and passport policies have provoked community and political resistance including energetic mass street protests.20 21 Much of the media and civil debates in liberal democracies have framed this as a consequence of 'anti-science' and 'right-wing' forces, repeating simplistic narratives about complex public perceptions and responses. While vaccine mandates for other diseases exist in some settings (eg, schools, travel (eg, yellow fever) and, in some instances, for healthcare workers (HCWs)),22 population-wide adult mandates, passports, and segregated restrictions are unprecedented and have never before been implemented on this scale. These vaccine policies have largely been framed as offering 'benefits' (freedoms) for those with a full COVID-19 vaccination series,23 24 but a sizeable proportion of people view conditioning access to health, work, travel and social activities on COVID-19 vaccination status as inherently punitive, discriminatory and coercive.20 21 25-28 There are also worrying signs that current vaccine policies, rather than being science-based, are being driven by sociopolitical attitudes that reinforce segregation, stigmatisation and polarisation, further eroding the social contract in many countries. Evaluating the potential societal harms of COVID-19 pandemic restrictions is essential to ensuring that public health and pandemic policy is effective, proportionate, equitable and legally justified.29 30 The complexity of public responses to these new vaccine policies, implemented within the unique sociopolitical context of the pandemic, demands assessment.

In this paper, we reflect on current COVID-19 vaccine policies and outline a comprehensive set of hypotheses for why they may have far-reaching unintended consequences that prove to be both counterproductive and damaging to public health, especially within some sociodemographic groups. Our framework considers four domains: (1) behavioural psychology, (2) politics and law, (3) socioeconomics, and (4) the integrity of science and public health (see figure 1). Our aim is not to provide a comprehensive overview or to fully recapitulate the broad ethical and legal arguments against (or for) COVID-19 vaccine mandates and passports. These have been comprehensively discussed by others.31-33 A full review of the contribution of mandates and passports to COVID-19 morbidity and mortality reductions is not yet possible, although some existing studies on vaccine uptake are cited below. Rather, our aim is to add to these existing arguments by outlining an interdisciplinary social science framework for how researchers, policymakers, civil society groups and public health authorities can approach the issue of unintended social harm from these policies, including on public trust, vaccine confidence, political polarisation, human rights, inequities and social well-being. We believe this perspective is urgently needed to inform current and future pandemic policies. Mandatory population-wide vaccine policies have become a normative part of pandemic governance and biosecurity response in many countries. We question whether this has come at the expense of local community and risk group adaptations based on deliberative democratic engagement and non-discriminatory, trust-based public health approaches.

Political Rhetoric regarding the unvaccinated (table 2)

Country Leader

Statement

Emmanuel Macron, France

"[It is] only a very small minority who are resisting. How do we reduce that minority? We reduce it by pissing them off even more...When my freedoms threaten those of others, I become someone irresponsible. Someone irresponsible is not a citizen."

Justin Trudeau, Canada

"When people are seeing cancer treatments and elective surgeries put off because beds are filled with people who chose not to get vaccinated, they're frustrated-When people see that we are in lockdowns or serious public health restrictions right now because of the risk posed to all of us by unvaccinated people, people get angry." "They are extremists who don't believe in science, they're often misogynists, also often racists-It's a small group that muscles in, and we have to make a choice, as a leader and as a country: Do we tolerate these people?"

Joe Biden, USA

"This is a pandemic of the unvaccinated. And it's caused by the fact that despite America having an unprecedented and successful vaccination program, despite the fact that for almost five months free vaccines have been available in 80,000 different locations, we still have nearly 80 million Americans of America who have failed to get the shot."

"For the unvaccinated, you're looking at a winter of severe illness and death for yourselves, your families, and the hospitals you may soon overwhelm."

Naftali Bennet, Israel

"Dear citizens, those who refuse vaccines are endangering their health, those around them and the freedom of every Israeli citizen. They are endangering our freedom to work, the freedom of our children to learn and the freedom to hold celebrations with the family. Those who refuse vaccines hurt Naftali us all because if all of us were vaccinated, we would all be able to maintain daily life. But if one million Israelis continue to not get vaccinated, this will oblige the eight million others to shut themselves in their homes."

Michael Gunner, Aus

"If you are anti-mandate, you are absolutely anti-vax, I don't care what your personal vaccination status is. If you support, champion, give a green light, give comfort to [or] support anybody who argues against the vaccine, you are an anti-vaxxer, absolutely. Your personal vaccination status is not relevant. If you campaign against the mandate-If you say 'pro-persuasion', stuff it, shove it. You are anti-vax."

Jacinda Ardern, NZ

"If you are still unvaccinated, not only will you be more at risk of catching COVID-19, but many of the freedoms others enjoy will be out of reach-.we have managed very high vaccination rates, generally, without the use of certificates but what has become clear to me is that they are not only a tool to drive up vaccines; they are a tool for confidence. People who are not vaccinated will want to know that they are around other vaccinated people ... it is a tool for business"

Tony Blair, UK

"We need to target the unvaccinated. Frankly if you are unvaccinated at the moment and you're eligible and have no health reason for being unvaccinated, you're not only irresponsible but you're an idiot. I am sorry but truthfully you are. With this Omicron variant-you will get it and this will put a lot of strain on the health service."

Rodrigo Duterte, Philipines

"I'm now giving orders to village leaders to look for those persons who are not vaccinated and request them to stay put [in their house]...If they refuse to vaccinate, or continue to leave their home, the village leaders are empowered to arrest them...."

Author interview	Richard Horton 2015: "Much of the scientific literature, perhaps half, may simply be untrue. Afflicted by studies with small sample sizes, tiny effects, invalid exploratory analyses, and flagrant conflicts of interest, together with an obsession for pursuing fashionable trends of dubious importance, science has taken a turn towards darkness."
Berenson, Alex	Pandemia	Regnery	Nov 2021
Author's website	The product of relentless investigation and research, Pandemia explains how an illness that many people will never even know they had became the occasion for economically ruinous lockdowns and the suppression of personal freedom on a previously unimaginable scale. Dispassionate, factual, and untainted by any agenda other than telling the truth, this is the account that pandemic-weary Americans desperately need.
Green,Toby Fazi,Thomas	The Covid Consensus The Global Assault on Democracy and the Poor - A Critique from the Left	Hurst	April 2021
Publisher's website	This rigorously researched book lifts the veil on the disastrous effects of lockdowns worldwide and raises more questions than it can answer given the continuing global crisis. It is a much-needed left-leaning critical intervention in the prevailing political consensus characterised by a totalitarian merging of Big Tech, Big Pharma, media corporations and government. Read it, weep (it is harrowing in parts), then read it again. - Left Lockdown Sceptics

Yet exorbitant prices for life-saving drugs, safety recalls affecting tens of millions of Americans, and soaring rates of addiction and overdose on pre-scription opioids have caused many to lose faith in drug companies. Now, Americans are demanding a national reckoning with a monolithic industry.

Title	Origin	Introduction
Resistance & Kickback: Declarations, Petitions, Alliances
Great Barrington Declaration	USA, UK	The Declaration was written from a global public health and humanitarian perspective, with special concerns about how the current COVID-19 strategies are forcing our children, the working class and the poor to carry the heaviest burden. The response to the pandemic in many countries around the world, focused on lockdowns, contact tracing and isolation, imposes enormous unnecessary health costs on people. In the long run, it will lead to higher COVID and non-COVID mortality than the focused protection plan we call for in the Declaration.
Health Advisory & Recovery Team	UK	A lot of what people have come to regard as clear scientific consensus over the last year is nothing of the sort. The voices of scientists with different views have simply not been heard.
UK Medical Freedom Alliance	UK	UKMFA is a group of healthcare professionals, scientists and lawyers, campaigning for people's rights to medical freedom, informed consent and bodily autonomy to be upheld in all circumstances, in accordance with fundamental and established principles of medical ethics and national and international laws, declarations and codes
Together Declaration	UK	'We the undersigned reject vaccine passports or any similar form of medical certification in the United Kingdom and invite you to add your voice to ours by signing this open letter'
Not Our Future	UK	In order to shift the course of our future from the one being built for us by default to one we would actually like for our children, we need to bring about a lot of change. In order to change things we need to go back to first principles. We need to withdraw our permission, our power and our money from The Blob.
World Council for Health	UK	Our global coalition of health-focused initiatives and civil society groups seeks to broaden public health knowledge and sense-making through science and shared wisdom. We are dedicated to safeguarding human rights and free will while empowering people to take control of their health and wellbeing.
The People's Health Alliance	UK	We started with a grand, yet simple, vision for the future. A future where Big Pharma (and Big Everything) no longer has control over We, The People; where the power of choice is returned to the individual and we shift the paradigm from treating disease, to creating health.
People's Food & Farming Alliance	UK	For The People, by The People : The People's Food and Farming Alliance (PFFA) aims to connect communities with local farmers and growers through educational support, common sense accreditation, local and regional distribution, and by ensuring a natural approach to food production.
Us for Them	UK	We can change the world and make it a better place. It is in our hands to make a difference. The UsforThem core team is made up of a bunch of ordinary people, drawn from across the UK. In common we have an overwhelming passion to stand up for children all over the UK who cannot stand up for themselves
Global Walkout	AUS	With enough numbers, the global walkout family can start to engage in significant actions that would encourage corporations and governments to take notice and consider our perspective. If our actions can directly affect the back pockets of the globalists, they might have no choice but to listen
Great Citizen's Movement	NL	The Great Citizens Movement aims to be a conglomeration of people, daring to dream of a better world and not stop there. We want to challenge you to write down your Letter to the Future, share your vision with the people around you and start creating the world you want to live in.
PANDA: Science, Sense, Society	S Africa	PANDA (Pandemics Data & Analytics) are a group of multi-disciplinary professionals, who perceived the global reaction to Covid, and lockdown in particular, as overwrought and damaging. PANDA seeks to develop science-based explanations and test them against international data. Policy recommendations for governments and other institutions can be developed from these. PANDA stands for open science and rational debate, for replacing flawed science with good science and for retrieving liberty and prosperity from the clutches of a dystopian "new normal".
Front Line Covid-19 Critical Care Alliance	USA	Founded by a group of leading critical care specialists in March 2020, the Front Line COVID-19 Critical Care Alliance (FLCCC) is dedicated to helping prevent and treat COVID
Public Health & Medical Professionals for Transparency	USA	This nonprofit, made up of public health professionals, medical professionals, scientists, and journalists exists solely to obtain and disseminate the data relied upon by the FDA to license COVID-19 vaccines. The organization takes no position on the data other than that it should be made publicly available to allow independent experts to conduct their own review and analyses
Deja Vu Legal	FR	As citizens who have signed this petition, we reserve the right to take collective legal action in order to be protected against compulsory vaccination and in particular against the establishment of a "Health pass" conditioning the exercise of our fundamental freedoms to proof of Covid-19 vaccination.
Doctors for Covid Ethics	UK	We are hundreds of doctors and scientists from all corners of the globe. We have written three letters to the European Medicines Agency, urgently warning of short term and long term dangers from COVID-19 vaccines, including clotting, bleeding and platelet abnormalities
Doctors for Patients	UK	Many doctors, in the UK and internationally, have become increasingly concerned about the safety profile of Covid-19 vaccines and the continued rollout of these products to the public, including pregnant women and children. Several doctors in DFPUK have submitted multiple Yellow Card reports of adverse events to the MHRA, and have signed letters to the JCVI, MHRA, the RCOG, Prime Minister and others to express their concerns, but have seen little or no response or action taken.

	Le Tissier is a former professional footballer and television pundit.

2017	Trust WHO	USA	85 minutes	Lilian Franck, Oval Media	Wolfgang Wodarg
	This personal investigation tells the story of how the WHO has been infiltrated and influenced by industry, and how the member States misuse the UN-organization for their own national economic interests. Whether dealing with the tobacco scandal, swine flu or Fukushima - the WHO plays a daunting role. It lacks funding, power and transparency. And its decisions end up helping the pharmaceutical companies and the nuclear energy industry more than the victims. The WHO was created as a guardian of world health, but it has become the plaything of individual interests.
2021	Corona.film - prologue	USA	77 minutes	Robert Cibis & others with Oval Media
	Everything is different than it once seemed. Things did not have to be this way. Not in Northern Italy, where terrible missteps and political showmanship triggered a global trauma. Nor in the official portrayal of the pandemic in the media, where a single truth was pushed through so as not to disturb the prevailing narrative with nuances and relativizations. This film explains it all. Shot around the globe, it unravels why COVID-19 unfolded the way it did from the medical, social & political perspectives.
Sept 2022	The Big Reset	ESP	136 minutes	'W' Studio	Pfizer
	With the covid-19 crisis, in just one year policies have been carried out that would seem unthinkable in normal conditions.

But it's not approved by the World Health Organization and remains banned in a number of countries, including France. Malaria claims almost half a million lives each year and Africa is worst affected. In recent years, the mosquitoes that spread the disease have become increasingly resistant to insecticide. FRANCE 24 brings you an in-depth investigation into the debate between those for and against this natural anti-malaria remedy, which appears as a threat to large pharmaceutical laboratories.

Pandemic Profiteering: the motive to exacerbate & perpetuate
Article	Author	Date	Resumé
Prince Charles announces The Great Reset as WEF spokesperson	Guardian UK	3 Jun 2020	The recovery from the coronavirus crisis represents an opportunity to reset the global economy and prioritise sustainable development without further damaging the planet, Prince Charles said at the opening of a World Economic Forum (WEF) virtual meeting.
Something Fishy about the Great Reset	Open Democracy	Aug 16 2021	At the heart of conspiracy theories are supposed secret agendas and malicious intent. While these may be absent from the WEF's Great Reset initiative, what I found was something almost as sinister hiding in plain sight. In fact, more sinister because it's real and it's happening now. And it involves things as fundamental as our food, our data and our vaccines.
Oxfam reports pandemic inequality	Oxfam USA	May 23 2022	For every new billionaire created during the pandemic - one every 30 hours - nearly a million people could be pushed into extreme poverty in 2022 at nearly the same rate, according to a new Oxfam brief today. "Profiting from Pain" is published as the World Economic Forum - the exclusive get-together of the global elite in Davos - takes place for the first time face-to-face since COVID-19, a period during which billionaires have enjoyed a huge boost to their fortunes.
Stocks soared while the people struggled	Emily Stewart, Vox	May 10 2021	The disconnect between Wall Street and Main Street, between corporate CEOs and the working class, has perhaps never felt so stark. How can it be that food banks are overwhelmed while the Dow Jones Industrial Average hits an all-time high? For a year that's been so bad, it's been hard not to wonder how the stock market could be so good.
Covid-19 impact on stock market	Chris Bradley, McKinsey & Co	March 10 2021	A look at the trends driving the economy today shows a pattern of great acceleration: few new trends emerged over the past year and even fewer reversed direction, but many of those present before the pandemic have experienced dramatic surges. Online shopping, remote education, telemedicine, and even geopolitical tensions are not new, but the COVID-19 crisis has intensified these forces like an earthquake releasing pent-up energy.
Mitre, a $2 billion data mining company	Thomas Brewster, Forbes	Jul 13 2020	... we found an elite institute that has proved a major boon to the U.S. government, providing tools for surveillance of criminals, diseases and immigrants illegally trying to enter the country. But some of the same projects are setting off alarm bells among human rights organizations and privacy advocates ... which are concerned about surveillance overreach from Mitre's sophisticated technology. // Eleven references to covid-19 show how this company has upped it's business due to the pandemic.
Who Profits from the Pandemic ?	Pepe Escobar Strategic Culture	Apr 9 2020	You don't need to read Michel Foucault's work on biopolitics to understand that neoliberalism - in deep crisis since at least 2008 - is a control/governing technique in which surveillance capitalism is deeply embedded. But now, with the world-system collapsing at breathtaking speed, neoliberalism is at a loss to deal with the next stage of dystopia, ever present in our hyper-connected angst: global mass unemployment.
Pandemic Profits - $85 Billion	Oxfam	Jul 22 2020	In 'Pandemic Profiteers Exposed' (pdf doc), Oxfam found that 17 of the top 25 most profitable US corporations, including Microsoft, Johnson & Johnson, Facebook, Pfizer, and Visa, are expected to make almost $85 billion more in 2020 than in previous years.

Covid-19 & the Demise of Democracy: Collateral Casualty or Intended Victim ?
Covid-19: democracy and hard choices in public health	David Bell, BMJ	5 Jun 2020	As covid-19 mortality grows, the global effects of "lockdown"- from mass unemployment to threatened famine-become increasingly stark.1 The phrase "but it has to be done" is threatening decades of norms on human rights by focusing whole countries, the world, on one problem and one outcome.
Democracy under Lockdown	Freedom House	Oct 2 2020	Since the coronavirus outbreak began, the condition of democracy and human rights has worsened in 80 countries, with particularly sharp deterioration in struggling democracies and highly repressive states, according to the experts surveyed by the project. More than 60 percent of the respondents predicted that the pandemic's impact on political rights and civil liberties in their countries of focus would be mostly negative for the next three to five years.
Weakening Democracy Around the World	Karl Vick, Time	Oct 2 2020	All told, clampdowns have weakened democracy in 80 countries, accelerating a 14-year decline in freedom as measured by the group's annual survey. "What began as a worldwide health crisis has become part of the global crisis for democracy," said Freedom House president Michael J. Abramowitz in a statement accompanying the release, titled Democracy Under Lockdown. "Governments in every part of the world have abused their powers in the name of public health, seizing the opportunity to undermine democracy and human rights."
Coronavirus: 5 ways it degrades democracy	Rachel Gisselquist, The Conversation	Dec 8 2020	In the wake of the COVID-19 outbreak, at least 95 countries declared a national emergency, empowering governments to act in ways they would not normally to protect citizens.
