The healthcare system isn’t interested in anything other than Covid… not even lung cancer
By Peter Andrews, Irish science journalist and writer based in London. He has a background in the life sciences, and graduated from the University of Glasgow with a degree in genetics.
A new report has shown how people with lung cancer may have been misdiagnosed as coronavirus sufferers, which is already contributing to avoidable deaths. The obsession with Covid-19 is beginning to take its toll.
The UK’s deadliest cancer, which kills around 35,300 people annually, may be in for a record-breaking year. And it is all thanks to lockdowns. As we know all too well, when it comes to cancer, early intervention is everything. With lung cancer, a delay of just 40 days to a surgery can cause a 16 percent increase in mortality, and three months can be the difference between a treatment and a death sentence. Now, a report by the UK Lung Cancer Coalition has lifted the lid on a scandal bubbling in the NHS: the appalling toll that government coronavirus rules are taking on lung cancer patients.
Lung cancer referrals fell by 75 percent in spring. At least one third of patients with lung cancer have already died since the outbreak began. And according to Professor David Baldwin, a respiratory medicine consultant, this is likely an underestimate, as “Some deaths will not have been recognised as lung cancer and may have even been labelled as Covid-19.” What this all boils down to, according to the report, is an additional 1,372 deaths due to lung cancer.

Coronavirus not among 10 most common causes of death in September – ONS
![[Image: Lockdown-deaths2.jpg]](https://davidicke.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/10/Lockdown-deaths2.jpg)
There were 2,703 excess deaths across England and Wales in September, official figures show – but coronavirus was not in the 10 leading causes of fatality.
The numbers released by the Office for National Statistics (ONS), are relative to the five-year average, counting from 2015 to 2019.
The leading cause of death in September for both nations was dementia and Alzheimer’s disease.
Quote:In September 2020, there were 39,827 deaths registered in England, 2,568 deaths more than the five-year average (2015 to 2019.)
In Wales, there were 2,610 deaths registered, 135 deaths more than the five-year average for September https://t.co/RnWAC6OHr8

Official data is ‘exaggerating’ the risk of Covid and talk of a second wave is ‘misleading’, 500 academics tell Boris Johnson in open letter attacking lockdown
Official data is ‘exaggerating’ the risk of Covid-19 and talk of a second wave is ‘misleading’, nearly 500 academics told Boris Johnson in open letter attacking lockdown.
The doctors and scientists said the Government’s response to the coronavirus pandemic has become ‘disproportionate’ and that mass testing has distorted the risk of the virus.
They said tests are likely to be producing high numbers of ‘false positive’ results and the Government must do more to put infection and death rates within the context of normal seasonal rates.
The letter criticised the Government’s handling of coronavirus for ‘causing more harm than good’.

‘Pandemic puzzle solved as scientists decode why Covid-19 largely spares children.’ Oh really? In fact, it overwhelmingly ‘affects’ old people because they have lots of other reasons to die that can be re-designated ‘Covid 19’ while younger people do not
Scientists have unraveled one of the mysteries of Covid-19, why the virus strikes down older people while seeming to leave children untouched. The breakthrough could pave the way for new treatments to combat the pandemic.
Researchers at Vanderbilt University Medical Center figured out that children have lower levels of a receptor protein that SARS-CoV-2 – the virus that causes Covid-19 – needs to invade the lungs.
“Our study provides a biologic rationale for why particularly infants and very young children seem to be less likely to either get infected or to have severe disease symptoms,” explained Jennifer Sucre, an assistant professor of pediatrics who led the research.
When a virus particle is inhaled into the lungs, protein ‘spikes’ latch on to the ACE2 receptor, which lies on the surfaces of certain lung cells.

Facts about ‘Covid-19’ – Swiss Policy Research – Will we ever be told the TRUTH?
Fully referenced facts about covid-19, provided by experts in the field, to help our readers make a realistic risk assessment.
“The only means to fight the plague is honesty.” (Albert Camus, 1947)
Overview
[ol]
[li]Lethality: According to the latest immunological studies, the overall infection fatality rate (IFR) of covid-19 in the general population is about 0.1% to 0.5% in most countries, which is most closely comparable to the medium influenza pandemics of 1957 and 1968.[/li]
[li]Treatment: For people at high risk or high exposure, early or prophylactic treatment is essential to prevent progression of the disease. According to numerous international studies, early outpatient treatment of covid may reduce hospitalizations and deaths by about 80%.[/li]
[li]Age profile: The median age of covid deaths is over 80 years in most Western countries (but 78 in the US) and only about 5% of the deceased had no serious preconditions. The age and risk profile of covid mortality is therefore comparable to normal mortality, but increases it proportionally.[/li]
[li]Nursing homes: In many Western countries, up to two thirds of all covid deaths have occurred in nursing homes, which require targeted and humane protection. In some cases, care home residents died not from the coronavirus, but from weeks of stress and isolation.[/li]
[li]Excess mortality: In most Western countries, the pandemic increased mortality by 5% to 15% in 2020. Up to 30% of the additional deaths were caused not by covid, but by indirect effects of the pandemic and lockdowns (e.g. fewer treatments of cancer and heart attack patients).[/li]
[li]Antibodies: By the end of 2020, antibody seroprevalence was between 10% and 30% of the population in most Western countries. At seroprevalence levels above 30%, a significant decrease in the infection rate was observed in many regions.[/li]
[li]Symptoms: Up to 40% of all infected persons show no symptoms. Overall, about 95% of all people develop at most mild or moderate symptoms and do not require hospitalization. Early outpatient treatment may further reduce hospitalizations.[/li]
[li]Long covid: About 10% of symptomatic people experience post-acute or long covid, i.e. symptoms or exhaustion that may last for several weeks or months. Long covid also affects younger and previously healthy people whose initial coronavirus disease was rather mild.[/li]
[li]Transmission: According to current knowledge, the main routes of transmission of the virus are indoor aerosols and droplets produced when speaking or coughing, while outdoor aerosols as well as most object surfaces appear to play a minor role. The coronavirus season in the northern hemisphere generally lasts from about November to April.[/li]
[li]Masks: There is still little to no scientific evidence for the effectiveness of cloth face masks in the general population, and the introduction of mandatory masks couldn’t contain or slow the epidemic in most countries. If used improperly, masks may increase the risk of infection.[/li]

Dr. Andrew Kaufman – The Last American Vagabond, Virus Isolation Terrain Theory And Covid-19
“…This is why it’s so important to understand that there’s no virus because, if there’s no virus, how could you transmit anything from person to person? You don’t need to do a study because you know you can’t — because there’s nothing to transmit.” ~ Dr. Andrew Kaufman

Insane study: Slow walkers may be more likely to die from ‘Covid’. There are people in psychiatric wards for less
People who walk slowly may be almost four times more likely to die from coronavirus, and be potentially more than twice at risk of contracting severe Covid-19, researchers say.
Those who walk slowly and are a normal weight could be almost 2.5 times more likely to develop severe Covid-19 and 3.75 times more likely to die from the virus than normal-weight fast walkers, according to a new study.
Slow walking was considered to be at a speed of less than three miles per hour, steady/average speed was three to four miles per hour, or brisk at more than four miles per hour.
The study of 412,596 middle-aged UK Biobank participants examined the relative association of body mass index (BMI) and self-reported walking pace with the risk of contracting severe Covid-19 and mortality. Tom Yates, lead researcher for the study and a professor of physical activity, sedentary behaviour and health at the University of Leicester said: “We know already that obesity and frailty are key risk factors for Covid-19 outcomes.
