Is the government suffering from Munchausen Syndome by Proxy?

Dear Editor
Eight days ago I wrote here [1]:
“To limp along like this in the hope that we will all be rescued by a vaccine (supposing we any longer need rescuing) is not realistic, and not the basis on which policy should be directed - quite apart from the harm that it is doing to every other aspect of civil life and of health policy itself.”
I now note the publication of an article by Carl Heneghan and Tom Jefferson in The Spectator questioning whether the present rise in cases is an artefact of PCR testing, as hospitalisations and deaths continue to decline [2]. Bearing this in mind perhaps it is time the British Medical Journal itself began to move the narrative on.

Good news. A Spanish randomised control trial just published showed remarkable effectiveness of Vit D (in the bio active Calcifediol form).
https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0960076020302764
NICE in the UK can no longer say they don’t have any RTC’s for treating Covid with vit D, which was their excuse for saying “there is no evidence”. So why the lock-down and masks?
Could it be because with the international financial system started collapsing in Sept 19, it has left Chines warehouses full of goods and components, that the West has no credit left to pay for. Meaning many businesses in the west have insufficient Chines components/products to return to normal production and sales. The politician fear anarchy if the populace realise what big business/bankers were allowed to get away with, in the pursuit of profits and million dollar bonuses. The pandemic is a political diversion for both west and east. Sorros, Buffet and Gates saw it coming long ago (as did financial journalist warning about the outright corruption going on and where it would lead) So Gates & Co. just took advantage.

I predict an impending vaccine disaster which might finally bring the Vaccine program to a complete end (aka the final solution , to quote William Gates III the turd).
these boys better have their NZ Bunkers fully stocked up.
The Lamestream BBC will find it hard to stem the story when it all goes wrong this time.
And there will be prosecutions this time for sure. Global Slow Kill & Merck & Sanofi & Pfizer.
Meanwhile Farcebook has gone into full censorship mode .....
we have holed them beneath the water line. They are struggling and the best is yet to come.
God Bless Berlin ...5m marched , and 60% are awake in Germany.
They are openly calling genocide over there and in sizable pockets everywhere else now.
I know this because I have been at marches everywhere ....
People openly calling this biological warfare ......global clearances

Ive noticed that most of the speaking heads on TV just parrot "until we get a vaccine" etc and nothing is qualified why we need a vaccine why indeed?
.Great points John and Elizabeth many thanks.

Thanks John , see The Health Foundation, co-ownership with the BMJ
The Health Foundation - Article under heading . Funding and Partnerships .
Article. NHS Reset : best practice and innovation a partnership with the NHS Confederation and AHSN Network exploring how to sustain and spread the best covid-19 related innovation .
States NHS Reset was launched in May 2020 and aims to recognise the sacrifices and achievements of the covid-19 period ,rebuildlocal systems and Reset the way we plan,commission and deliver health and care .
Shut in /Lockdown syndrome caused more deaths than the viral respiratory infection itself ?
Do Not Resuscitate orders galore for elderly ,frail, learning disabilities , care home sector ,with no access to basic IV fluids ,Oxygen, etc basic supportive but lifesaving interventions!
No wonder UK leaders do not want an investigation into their intervention policies ?The public ferocious response of disgust would flatten their curves ,nae problem at all!

No, and even the editor of the BMJ doesn’t think there should be a race. What are the British Medical Association going to make of it if as now expected the government rush out vaccines known to be ineffective and administered by amateurs, bearing in mind doctors will presumably be expected to have them themselves?

In my opinion there should not be a ‘race for coronavirus vaccines‘...
