Too many deaths - Nothing to see here!
Updated: Aug 29, 2022
My daughter, Myra, rang me the other day. She was upset. I could not understand her words, so I asked her to stop and say it all again. I then understood why she was so upset; her longtime friend Rab Wardell, the Scottish mountain bike champion, was dead. Please take a few minutes to watch this video which begins with a reference to Rab.

Myra wrote this about Rab:
"Some things can hit you from the left of the field.
Rab, a Champion, over a dedicated career, a great contribution to cycling and the development of the next generation, to see a man reach the best athletic form of their life,
has died in his sleep after such a height of achievement, just a few days later.
I'm sure the entire cycling world feels shocked, as I do, by Rab Wardell's passing. I'm used to seeing Champions achieving glory but never expected to see a loss like this. My heart goes out to his friends, family, and Scotland, who have lost a champion in sport and a friend.
The kinship between my Cook Island Cycling Journey and the Scottish Cycling Team has had a special impact on me. I have held gratitude for the encouragement by Rab and his teammates over the years. I know his impact would have also been special to those he coached and his teammates".
Rab lived life to the full, but it was cut far too short.
On that day, when Myra rang, I had three people contact me with troubling cardiovascular symptoms coinciding with the mRNA jab. While assisting these people, the air ambulance helicopter flew overhead three times, rushing critically ill patients to Wellington Hospital. Nothing to see there!
Lately, we've been getting 2-3 cases per working day. I'm talking about conditions that carry the possibility of lasting disability and even death. In all of the cases this week, they have been told there is either nothing wrong with them medically, or they have strained a muscle or are suffering anxiety. I've heard some beauties, like attributing heart problems to breath-holding too much or paralysis and weight loss due to anorexia. Sometimes the diagnosis is so ridiculous that I cannot restrain the urge to laugh.
It seems the doctors who have not been fired or just given the profession away out of disgust, or disillusionment, are either brain-dead, brain-washed or too afraid to say anything. For a doctor, getting involved in a vaccine injury claim is akin to drinking from the poisoned chalice. The doctors that remain will simply not go there, and the patient loses out because, without an accurate diagnosis, there can be no meaningful treatment.
I think we are on the cusp of a tsunami of health problems of a magnitude never seen before. I hope I'm wrong.
Unlike the politicians, bureaucrats and professors in their ivory towers, we get to experience the human tragedy side of this jab-happy insanity firsthand.
With all the suffering and death now commonplace around us, we must not lose sight that the casualties are fellow Kiwis, friends, neighbours and family. Each one of those numbers in Prof Baker's stats is someone's son or daughter.

I wish you excellent health!

How A Small Scientific Elite Dictates Government Policy
Fact Check: Are Excess Deaths in NZ the world’s highest or lowest?
By Dr Guy Hatchard
The University of Otago publishes a blog called Public Health Expert. The
24th August edition was entitled “ The Covid-19 experience in Aotearoa New
Zealand and other comparable high-income jurisdictions and implications for
managing the next pandemic phase
The authors were Dr Jennifer Summers, Prof Nick Wilson, Dr Lucy Telfar
Barnard, Dr Julie Bennett, Dr Amanda Kvalsvig, Prof Michael Baker who all
work at the Otago University Department of Public Health.
This blog has been picked up uncritically by newspapers across New
Zealand. For example the Otago Daily Times claims that:
“A new analysis has shown how New Zealand's pandemic response left it
with one of the lowest rates of excess mortality in the world – sparing it the
thousands of extra deaths seen even in elimination countries like Taiwan and
Australia.”
The blog uses data from Our World in Data, a US website, in order to
compare New Zealand data with Taiwan, Singapore, Japan, Australia, and
South Korea. Based on their analysis the authors of the blog advise
extending NZ pandemic policy including vaccine enforcement, mask wearing,
home isolation, and vaccines for the under fives.
The blog prints a graph (below) apparently showing that New Zealand has the
lowest rate of excess all-cause deaths among the six countries for the years
2020, 2021, and 2022 (the small print notes that the graph might not count all
deaths due to incomplete coverage and delays in reporting).
The graph appears to show that all cause deaths in New Zealand have
remained well below pre-pandemic levels throughout the three years covered
by the pandemic. The Y axis is labeled ‘number of deaths per million relative
to previous years’. The graph does not state whether this is a weekly total or
a cumulative total or something else.
A naive reading of the graph, which was presumably the approach of the
various poorly qualified science explainers in MSM, appears to show that
excess deaths per million are currently at a rate of 200 deaths below previous
levels (per week, per year, per three years??? the blog doesn’t tell you), but
you would be completely wrong to read the graph like this.
If you go vertically up from the date 1 July 2022 to the graph and then across
to the Y access, as we are trained to do in school, you reach a figure—minus
250. If you think that means in the week ending 1st of July all-cause deaths
were 250 below the long term average, you are being misled. The all-cause
death rate for the most recent week of August is actually 246 ABOVE the long
term average.
Close inspection shows that the graph is a measure of the accumulating
excess death rate for the entire pandemic, not the current death rate. In other
words the early death data before Covid infection and vaccines is averaged
with present data which appears to lower the current death rate.
The success claimed for New Zealand by the blog and the low death rate
reported by MSM is actually due to the extreme lockdown measures of 2020
and the consequent zero flu rate. Since then, matters have consistently
deteriorated and now deaths are accelerating to unprecedented high levels.
In 2020 there were virtually no Covid infections and no vaccines. The closure
of borders and lockdowns ensured there was no flu season. All-cause deaths
were very low.. For most of 2021 lockdowns continued and Covid cases were
very low, vaccines were rolled out. Deaths rose and peaked parallel to the
vaccine uptake . In 2022 all-cause deaths have risen dramatically. Deaths
because of Covid form a very small percentage of the all-cause deaths.
Official New Zealand Ministry of Health figures from last week show that all
cause deaths were 946 for the week. This is a record for New Zealand. The
pre-pandemic average number of deaths per week was 663. Taking into
account seasonal fluctuations (winter deaths are higher) the current excess
number of weekly all cause deaths is 35% above the long term average. A
very worrying figure indeed. Among the highest in the world, not the lowest.
The correct interpretation of the 2022 figures in the graph is as follows:
All six countries which have followed vaccination policies very similar
to New Zealand now have rapidly rising all-cause death rates.
Are you impressed or are you disappointed with the rather deceptive
approach being taken by Otago scientists? If you are concerned you are not
alone, in fact you are in august company. Rishi Sunak, until recently UK
Chancellor of the Exchequer, currently in the last weeks of his bid for the Tory
leadership, has given an interview with Spectator magazine entitled:
“ The lockdown files: Rishi Sunak on what we weren’t told ”
These are some of his conclusions he reached from inside the UK
government decision-making process:
“When the evidence started to roll in, a strange silence grew in government:
dissenting voices were filtered out and a see-no-evil policy was applied.”
“A cost-benefit calculation – a basic requirement for pretty much every public
health intervention – was never made…. The script was not to ever
acknowledge side effects [of policies]”.
One of Sunak’s big concerns was about the fear messaging, which his
Treasury team worried could have long-lasting effects. “In every brief, we tried
to say: let’s stop the “fear” narrative. It was always wrong from the beginning.
I constantly said it was wrong.”
The UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson wanted to present it as ‘following the
science’ rather than a political decision, and this had implications for the
wiring of government decision-making. It meant elevating Sage, a sprawling
group of scientific advisers, into a committee that had the power to decide
whether the country would lock down or not, but it was a forum where
questions could not be asked. Sunak said:
“This is the problem, if you empower all these independent people [advisors],
you’re screwed.”
Sunak said that questions and concerns raised by some Sage scientists
during their private meetings were withheld from government. As a result,
according to Sunak, government pandemic policies, especially lockdowns,
created an economic disaster.
This week’s Public Health blog from the University of Otago is a prime
example of what Rishi Sunak has revealed. The blog is aimed directly at
informing future government policy. It says:
“Based on a comparison of responses we provide updated recommendations
for the NZ Government around strengthening existing public health measures
to reduce the immediate and long-term impacts from Covid-19.”
In fact, the information provided by the Otago Department of Public Health
scientists to the government in this blog is lacking key explanatory information
and apparently biased in favour of particular policy decisions. It suggests that
prior NZ policy has been the best in the world and should be extended.
Their recommendations include:
Extending current government messaging encouraging boosters
Strengthening measures in schools.
mRNA vaccines for the under fives.
Deploying new biotech vaccine types.
Stronger measures to ensure vaccine acceptance.
Mandates to enforce mask wearing.
Longer periods of home isolation
The sole reference in the blog to the rapidly accelerating all-time record levels
of all-cause mortality in New Zealand is this phrase:
“…the direction of the curve suggests that the reduction is decreasing in
magnitude.”
Do you think that is sufficient information for politicians to make informed
policy decisions? We don’t. As Benjamin Franklin said many years ago:
“There’s none deceived but he that trusts”.
As I wrote to Prime Minister Ardern last week, we are not recording the
vaccination status of people on death certificates. As a result, we don’t know
what is causing the excess deaths in New Zealand. In the UK, such figures
are kept and they show that excess deaths are disproportionately affecting
the vaccinated, especially the boosted. Data from other countries indicates
the causes might include high cancer rates, blood clots, and cardiovascular
illness. Crucially, deaths rates are unusually affecting working age people and
the young. Have our experts informed our government? Apparently not.
As Rishi Sunak advises: “Find out what you are not being told”.
