COVID Vaccine Controversies and Accountability

The COVID lockdowns were the darkest period in recent British history, bar none. Our freedoms were stripped away in ways most of us never imagined

possible. And alongside all of that came extraordinary pressure on millions of people to take the COVID vaccine. Pressure from politicians, employers, media institutions, everything, everywhere. For some, refusing meant losing their livelihood.

They did it anyway. We were told to trust the science, but the science is not a commandment. It's a process of questioning, testing, and challenging of evidence. When a government asks millions of healthy people to undergo an unproven medical intervention with unwanted consequences, scrutiny should increase.

COVID posed very different risks to different people. An elderly, vulnerable person faced a very different calculation from a healthy twenty-five-year-old. In fact, they could not have been more different. The twenty-five-year-old was at no risk whatsoever.

They were more likely to drown to death than have serious issues with COVID. Yet so much of the messaging treated vaccination as though it were the same decision for everyone. Why?

Why were people asking questions treated with such hostility? And why were people who refused a medical invention-- intervention made to feel like social pariahs? I'm particularly concerned about children.

For the overwhelming majority, the risk of severe COVID illness was non-existent. It was a cold. There was no threat at all. And let's remember that the rollout to teenagers was forced through against the

advice of JCVI, who originally declined to recommend a mass rollout for younger teens. The facts are quite clear. We do know that cases of myocarditis and pericarditis

occurred following COVID vaccinations, particularly amongst adolescent and young adult males. Millions of healthy young men and women should never have been forced to take that

vaccination, and those responsible for that decision must be held accountable. Informed consent is the only way. Then there was Nadhim Zahawi, the

Conservative government's vaccines minister at the time, now speaking for Reform UK. He stated that children twelve to fifteen could receive the COVID vaccine even where their parents objected.

A twelve-year-old could take this vaccination against their parents' wishes. Think about that. Twelve years old. And then came vaccine passports, again, forced through by Reform

Zahawi. I found the entire concept morally repugnant. It was criminal. The idea that the state could make access to

ordinary parts of life dependent on disclosing your medical status, that is not how a free country should operate. I did

not take the COVID vaccine. I didn't want it, I didn't need it, and I didn't take it. That decision cost me money. It affected my travel. I lost friends. It made my life considerably more difficult, but I don't regret it for one moment.

But this cannot end with another speech about how badly things were handled. We all know that. This-- there must be accountability. By law, this inquiry cannot decide whether anyone

is liable for what went wrong. What response-- that responsibility now rests with government, regulators, and where necessary, the courts. The inquiry itself recognized

the heavy cost of lockdowns, even as, even if it criticized how decisions were made. That is exactly why there must be a full, honest reckoning of their true costs and benefits and of the treatment of the care home residents.

Questions about pandemic censorship and conflicts of interest demand answers, too. Who decided which questions the public

was allowed to ask? Who profited from the answers? Th- these are questions any healthy democracy should ask.

The government has accepted that the reform is needed, but it has offered no timetable and no detail. Those who have been injured by these vaccines cannot be left waiting any longer. The scheme needs an overhaul. Nobody can

be above the law. Translate.mom
