8 prominent Doctors and scientists ... ( Archived) (191)

7 minutes into the video and I have some observations.

The video is clearly heavily edited. That may simply be a matter of removing 'filler' material of no consequence, but the information put forward doesn't appear to be sequential. That leaves me questioning the possibility of editorial bias.

The input from the panel members appears out of context with no concrete evidence provided to substantiate claims. This leaves arguments open to viewer interpretation and leaps of logic which each of us will do from our own value framework. Trump is a master of this technique of influence/manipulation where many may agree with and support him without him actually saying anything definitive, or of consequence.

The information provided so far is that vaccines aren't the sole answer and we must utilise other strategies as well. We already know that: of course people who get sick need treatment and of course hygiene protcols (masks, social distancing, ventilation, hand washing, cleaning/sanitation) should be adhered to.

Panel members don't specify the 'other strategies' beyond early treatment regimes and so these strategies appear cloaked in mystery, along with the suggestion that they are being blocked by authorities. I wanted to hear the alleged 'blocked' strategies named because I can neither agree, nor disagree without this essential information.

I see from other comments on this thread that people have found the video informative and agreeable, yet no one has highlighted these red flags which appear so early on.

Approx 7-8 1/2 minutes: vaccine strategy has always been an issue given limited resources and that vaccinatng everyone at once is a practical impossibility.

Vaccinating the elderly and other vulnerable people first isn't just about protecting them.Those most likely to become infected and very sick are those most likely to replicate the virus, spread the virus and burden health services. Vaccinating the most vulnerable first is a strategy which helps protect the least vulnerable, too.

I do agree that a part of that vaccination strategy should be directed at vaccinating the most vulnerable in low income countries. Inhibiting transmission and replication of the virus reduces the possibilty of vaccine resistant variants emerging. The next generation of vaccines should go to the areas where they will be most effective and that's not necessarily in high income countries where most people already have a high degree of protection.

There is nothing new in this argument, although there is some weight in maintaining practical and economic functionality in high income countries so they are in a position to share resources globally. For example, in the UK we have a lot of Delta infection, but comparitively few deaths. We appear to be stable as long as a vaccine resistant variant doesn't take us back to square one. We probably don't need a Delta vaccine booster, but other countries would likely benefit from a Delta vaccine and that in turn may further protect the UK from the possibility of future emerging variants in other countries where more people are less protected.

In countries like the UK, perhaps we need to have conversations about acceptable death tolls and burdens on health services. We maybe need to recognise that, as with other diseases, a zero death toll and total eradication of the virus is unrealistic.

You can go to the FLCCC website and get all the information there. YouTube is censoring any and all videos that mentions any alternative treatments for Covid. I'm surprised that video is still up. The person I listen to did not appear on the panel in this video but he is part of the alliance.

My go to guy has a live show on weekday nights 6pm pacific time on YouTube but is transferring to Odysee eventually because of censorship.

Alternative to what?

I'm all in favour of 'alternative' medicines. I'm currently looking at dietary triggers, herbal support, breathing exercises and throwing myself into stinging nettle bushes in a bid to improve my current health issues.

I'm not, however, advocating that millions of other people take potentially dangerous and likely ineffective pharmaceutical products in order to avoid taking an effective and less dangerous pharmaceutical product.

If you think I'm supporting the cited video in my comments, you are very much mistaken. I'm critically evaluating it and so far, approximately one fifth of the way in, it's not looking terribly impressive.
