    Belgian Doctors' Open Letter on the Global Lockdown

    OPEN LETTER FROM MEDICAL DOCTORS AND HEALTH PROFESSIONALS TO ALL BELGIAN AUTHORITIES AND ALL BELGIAN MEDIA.


    Signed by 454 medical doctors
    Signed by 1469 medically trained health professionals
    Signed by 10153 citizens

    September 5th 2020


    We, Belgian doctors and health professionals, wish to express our serious concern about the evolution of the situation in the recent months surrounding the outbreak of the SARS-CoV-2 virus. We call on politicians to be independently and critically informed in the decision-making process and in the compulsory implementation of corona-measures. We ask for an open debate, where all experts are represented without any form of censorship. After the initial panic surrounding covid-19, the objective facts now show a completely different picture – there is no medical justification for any emergency policy anymore.

    The current crisis management has become totally disproportionate and causes more damage than it does any good.

    We call for an end to all measures and ask for an immediate restoration of our normal democratic governance and legal structures and of all our civil liberties
    .


    ‘A cure must not be worse than the problem’ is a thesis that is more relevant than ever in the current situation. We note, however, that the collateral damage now being caused to the population will have a greater impact in the short and long term on all sections of the population than the number of people now being safeguarded from corona.

    In our opinion, the current corona measures and the strict penalties for non-compliance with them are contrary to the values formulated by the Belgian Supreme Health Council, which, until recently, as the health authority, has always ensured quality medicine in our country: “Science – Expertise – Quality – Impartiality – Independence – Transparency”. 1

    We believe that the policy has introduced mandatory measures that are not sufficiently scientifically based, unilaterally directed, and that there is not enough space in the media for an open debate in which different views and opinions are heard. In addition, each municipality and province now has the authorisation to add its own measures, whether well-founded or not.

    Moreover, the strict repressive policy on corona strongly contrasts with the government’s minimal policy when it comes to disease prevention, strengthening our own immune system through a healthy lifestyle, optimal care with attention for the individual and investment in care personnel.2



    The concept of health


    In 1948, the WHO defined health as follows: ‘Health is a state of complete physical, mental and social well-being and not merely the absence of disease or other physical impairment’.3


    Health, therefore, is a broad concept that goes beyond the physical and also relates to the emotional and social well-being of the individual. Belgium also has a duty, from the point of view of subscribing to fundamental human rights, to include these human rights in its decision-making when it comes to measures taken in the context of public health. 4

    The current global measures taken to combat SARS-CoV-2 violate to a large extent this view of health and human rights. Measures include compulsory wearing of a mask (also in open air and during sporting activities, and in some municipalities even when there are no other people in the vicinity), physical distancing, social isolation, compulsory quarantine for some groups and hygiene measures.



    The predicted pandemic with millions of deaths


    At the beginning of the pandemic, the measures were understandable and widely supported, even if there were differences in implementation in the countries around us. The WHO originally predicted a pandemic that would claim 3.4% victims, in other words millions of deaths, and a highly contagious virus for which no treatment or vaccine was available. This would put unprecedented pressure on the intensive care units (ICUs) of our hospitals.


    This led to a global alarm situation, never seen in the history of mankind: “flatten the curve” was represented by a lockdown that shut down the entire society and economy and quarantined healthy people. Social distancing became the new normal in anticipation of a rescue vaccine.



    The facts about covid-19


    Gradually, the alarm bell was sounded from many sources: the objective facts showed a completely different reality. 5 6


    The course
    of covid-19 followed the course of a normal wave of infection similar to a flu season. As every year, we see a mix of flu viruses following the curve: first the rhinoviruses, then the influenza A and B viruses, followed by the coronaviruses. There is nothing different from what we normally see.


    The use of the non-specific PCR test, which produces many false positives, showed an exponential picture. This test was rushed through with an emergency procedure and was never seriously self-tested. The creator expressly warned that this test was intended for research and not for diagnostics.7

    The PCR test works with cycles of amplification of genetic material – a piece of genome is amplified each time. Any contamination (e.g. other viruses, debris from old virus genomes) can possibly result in false positives.8


    The test does not measure how many viruses are present in the sample. A real viral infection means a massive presence of viruses, the so-called virus load. If someone tests positive, this does not mean that that person is actually clinically infected, is ill or is going to become ill. Koch’s postulate was not fulfilled (“The pure agent found in a patient with complaints can provoke the same complaints in a healthy person”).

    Since a positive PCR test does not automatically indicate active infection or infectivity, this does not justify the social measures taken, which are based solely on these tests. 9 10


    Lockdown.

    If we compare the waves of infection in countries with strict lockdown policies to countries that did not impose lockdowns (Sweden, Iceland …), we see similar curves. So there is no link between the imposed lockdown and the course of the infection. Lockdown has not led to a lower mortality rate.


    If we look at the date of application of the imposed lockdowns we see that the lockdowns were set after the peak was already over and the number of cases decreasing. The drop was therefore not the result of the taken measures. 11
    As every year, it seems that climatic conditions (weather, temperature and humidity) and growing immunity are more likely to reduce the wave of infection.

    Placer County California Reopens Businesses, Schools, **Churches in Defiance of Gov. Newsom, and COVID** Incidents Decrease – Model for Rest of California?

    Comments by Brian Shilhavy
    Editor, Health Impact News
    September 26, 2020

    Kirk Uhler is the elected County Supervisor for the 4th District in Placer County, California.


    Placer County made news earlier this month (September, 2020) when the Board of Supervisors voted to remove all the COVID pandemic measures, allowing businesses, schools, and churches to re-open, risking losing state funding for defying Governor Newsom.


    As can be expected, Big Pharma interests kicked into high gear to protest the County’s actions. Placer County Health Officer and Public Health Director, Dr Aimee Sisson, for example, resigned from her position.



    Kirk Uhler streamed a Facebook video this week exposing the lies in a Sacramento Bee’s article that blamed the unanimous Board resolution on “anti-vaxxers.”


    In Uhler’s video, he shows how New COVID cases, county residents hospitalized, positive test results, and cases per 100,000 have all dramatically DECREASED since the Board passed their resolution, which of course should silence all of their critics, except that those who want to continue “emergency” dictates indefinitely really do not care about statistics, or the truth.


    Other counties throughout California should now follow suit, and put the health and lives of their constituents as first priority over the tyrannical State Government’s desire to continue destroying the economy of California, and any potential loss of COVID funding (which can be challenged in court as well).


    Watch Mr. Uhler’s full video. If it disappears, you can watch it on our Bitchute channel.

    Coronavirus: Crushing and Silencing Doctors of Conscience
    By Michael Welch and Docs4opendebate
    Global Research, October 02, 2020


    “Looking back, I can see that we have a situation which I compare with the Third Reich…Joseph Goebbels, he was the Minister of Propaganda, and he said “if you repeat a message long enough, loud enough, hard enough, at the end everybody believes it.” And I think the crux of the problem is in the media.” – Doctor quoted in this interview.

    LISTEN TO THE SHOW

    Click to download the audio (MP3 format)

    With the weather getting colder, people in Canada and all around the globe are witnessing a rising incidence of the SARS-CoV-2 virus.

    Prime Minister Trudeau was quoted as saying during a speech to the people of Canada the following:

    “The second wave isn’t just starting, it’s already underway.”

    Children are going to school in masks, just as everyone is forced to wear masks anywhere that’s indoors in some places. As the struggle worsens, people fear the return of spring-time lock downs and all the hardship springing from it.

    Provoked by daily reports by politicians, chief public health officers, and the mainstream media, people might be understandably terrified. On the other hand, there are rational voices singing from the hymn book of sober second thoughts.
    These voices belong to people called doctors.

    As we reported in our last show, Doctor Sucharit Bhakdi in his book, Corona, False Alarm, laid out how the evidence of the panic was unreliable, how the COVID 19 was in fact no worse than a typical flu virus, and how the lockdowns cause more difficulties than the disease itself.

    There are many, many more doctors also raising their voices calling for their nations and the world to rethink their COVID strategy. They are particularly effective in Europe. These include a petition signed by 2662 doctors and medical practitioners in the Netherlands, a public conference made up of 400 doctors in Spain, a Corona Extra-Parliamentary Inquiry Committee made up of about 500 Doctors and scientists in Germany, and a public letter from Belgium signed by over 1500 people in the medical and scientific community.

    Sadly, these people cannot get their voices in regular media.

    This week, on the Global Research News Hour, we work to give these experts some space, and possibly assuage the out if control panic sweeping our society.

    Our guests for the hour are two doctors with the group: Docs 4 Open Debate. For most of the program they speak about the unreliable test numbers, unreliable masks, the WHO’s role in this, and the determination to not just ignore but punish those in the profession who speak out.

    Docs 4 Open Debate is a group in Belgium doctors and health professionals intent on demanding more critical analysis of the pandemic fight, relaxation of the extreme emergency measures, and freedom to express their positions on mainstream media. They crafted an open letter to this end which has so far been signed by 515 physicians and 1767 medically trained health professionals. Their site is docs4opendebate.be

    The Global Research News Hour airs every Friday at 1pm CT on CKUW 95.9FM in Winnipeg. The programme is also podcast at globalresearch.ca .

    Re: Belgian Doctors' Open Letter on the Global Lockdown

    More from wonderful ethical knowledgeable doctor: Sucharit Bhakdi | Full Interview | based on latest info that Covid compares in lethality to influenza, and for those UNDER 70, it is less lethal than flu. For those 70, 80+ who are healthy, it also less lethal than flu.
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DVq_...PlanetLockdown

    Quote A sit down interview with Sucharit Bhakdi about the current situation we find ourselves in. He is the most cited microbiologist in German academic history, an authority if there ever was one. Shocked by the events of this year, he is speaking out about the scientific fallacies and human rights abuses at work now. Dr Reiner Fuellmich, interviewer, is a German-American lawyer with experience going after large companies like Deutsche Bank. He is a member of the German Corona Investigative Committee. He discusses the current situation and his efforts to bring justice to the situation.

    Toward end of interview, Dr. Fuellmich asked Dr. Bhakdi's thoughts about vaccine passports: "If the vaccine passports come to be, it is goodnight to society, goodnight to science, goodnight to humanity."

    More about likely immunity to virus in population: "The data show that approximately 80% of people whose lymphocytes in the blood have been tested, have activity against this virus. What that means is that out of 100 people, 80 would be at least partially immune to Sars-Co-V2. Also, realize that only 5-10% of ALL your lymphocytes are IN the blood whenever blood is taken. Over 90% of lymphocytes reside in the lymph nodes, in the spleen, in the liver and do not show up in any blood sample. I am willing to bet that those who tested negative (@ 20%) have lymphocytes that just did not happen to be in the blood when drawn. I am convinced we all have a background immunity against this virus. I don't know if I'm right, but I think there is a high probability that I am right."

    The last question dealt w/reason Dr. Bhakdi left Thailand and moved to Germany. He found freedom, a democracy, academia.. He has been very happy.... until the last 7 months when he has found himself basically imprisoned. "It is a nightmare that I thought I would never have to go through. My only thought is how to get out of this nightmare to save the lives of my children and grandchildren."

    Any discussion of COVID lethality that ignores the substantial risk of severe pos-COVID syndrome(s) is dishonest.

    Re: Belgian Doctors' Open Letter on the Global Lockdown

    I have no idea why you think I am dismissing the risk. I am well aware of them. No brakes on an inflammatory response can wreak havoc on a body, so can some of the treatment interventions that may be needed.

    That said, the risk is found in a very small percent of people, who can decide for themselves how best to lessen their risks as they and their doctors see fit.
