Over 6000 Scientists, Doctors Sign Anti-lockdown Petition

[excalibur]

The lockdowns were never a good idea and it is time to end them. Meanwhile, in New York, Cuomo and De Blasio are attacking Jews.

Those who have signed include professors from the world’s leading universities. Oxford University professor Dr Sunetra Gupta was one of the authors of the open letter that was sent with the petition, along with Harvard University’s Dr Martin Kulldorff and Stanford’s Dr Jay Bhattacharya.

It declares that social distancing and mask mandates are causing ‘damaging physical and mental health impacts.’

The petition, dubbed the Great Barrington Declaration after the town in Massachusetts where it was written, has been signed by close to 54,000 members of the public at time of writing, as well as over 2600 medical and public health scientists and around 3500 medical practitioners.

“Those who are not vulnerable should immediately be allowed to resume life as normal,” it notes, adding “Keeping these [lockdown] measures in place until a vaccine is available will cause irreparable damage, with the underprivileged disproportionately harmed.”

“Current lockdown policies are producing devastating effects on short and long-term public health,” the declaration also declares. It continues, “The results (to name a few) include lower childhood vaccination rates, worsening cardiovascular [heart] disease outcomes, fewer cancer screenings and deteriorating mental health – leading to greater excess mortality in years to come, with the working class and younger members of society carrying the heaviest burden.”

...

“Those who are not vulnerable should immediately be allowed to resume life as normal, it concludes, explaining that “Simple hygiene measures, such as hand washing and staying home when sick should be practiced by everyone to reduce the herd immunity threshold.”

Over 6000 Scientists, Doctors Sign Anti-lockdown Petition

Calls for only 'focused protection' of vulnerable people from COVID so everyone else can build herd immunity

These doctors are right... Our vaccines will only deal with one or two of the COVID strains at best and if it mutates they will be useless.. Natural immunity is the only way to get this thing under control...

 

[Shelzin]

Instead of a couple Trillion dollars going to kill people, a couple Trillion goes to people who aren't working. *shrugs*

 

[Manonthestreet]

That many sigs must mean it's settled science, anyone opposing it is a denier..

The petition, dubbed the Great Barrington Declaration after the town in Massachusetts where it was written, has been signed by close to 73,000 members of the public at time of writing, as well as over 4,700 medical and public health scientists and around 3,200 medical practitioners.​

​

“Those who are not vulnerable should immediately be allowed to resume life as normal,” it notes, adding “Keeping these [lockdown] measures in place until a vaccine is available will cause irreparable damage, with the underprivileged disproportionately harmed.”​

“Current lockdown policies are producing devastating effects on short and long-term public health,” the declaration also declares.​

​

It continues, “The results (to name a few) include lower childhood vaccination rates, worsening cardiovascular [heart] disease outcomes, fewer cancer screenings and deteriorating mental health – leading to greater excess mortality in years to come, with the working class and younger members of society carrying the heaviest burden.”​

​

“Keeping students out of school is a grave injustice,” the declaration adds.​

“Those who are not vulnerable should immediately be allowed to resume life as normal, it concludes, explaining that “Simple hygiene measures, such as hand washing and staying home when sick should be practiced by everyone to reduce the herd immunity threshold.”​

“Schools and universities should be open for in-person teaching. Extracurricular activities, such as sports, should be resumed. Young low-risk adults should work normally, rather than from home,” it emphasises.​

​

Finally, the declaration demands that normal life should resume, stating that “Restaurants and other businesses should open. Arts, music, sport and other cultural activities should resume. People who are more at risk may participate if they wish, while society as a whole enjoys the protection conferred upon the vulnerable by those who have built up herd immunity.”​

​

The declaration echoes President Trump’s words earlier this week when he returned to the White House and asked Americans not to live in fear or let let the virus dominate their everyday lives:​

This medical paper is growing in signatories... Many highly respected epidemiologists are signatories.

This thing is exploding in democrat faces this morning.. and people are paying attention as the list of Doctors in every aspect of medical care are signing on to this... The deaths from OTHER than COVID are far out numbering the COVID cost... The cure that our political class is giving us is far worse than the disease at this point.

Are the scientists factoring in the election the marxists need to rig?

This reminds me of the petition signed by thousands of "climate scientists" who said climate change was a hoax several years ago. Reporters started looking into the names and 95% of them weren't doctors or peer reviewed scientists. They were things like garbage men, bartenders, TeeVee weathermen and crab boat owners.

Can you get rid of that photo attached to your posts? It's giving me nightmares.

Sure they were. If you want to challenge the credentials of the signatories of this document no one is stopping you.

#2 is behind the times. The REGN-COV2 now circulating in Trump’s body is a double antibody machine that prevents COVID-19 mutations in the spike protein.

Your instincts were correct.

Herd immunity letter signed by fake experts including 'Dr Johnny Bananas'

Open letter calling for new Covid-19 strategy also signed by ‘Cominic Dummings’

Many university scientists have also signed.

And from your link:

The chief executive of NHS England, Sir Simon Stevens, has said asking all over-65s to shield to slow the transmission of the second wave of coronavirus would be “age-based apartheid”.​

So this asshole 'Sir' Simon Stevens is all-in for continuing lockdowns because of something, something, something, apartheid.

Those scientists were right, just like these scientists are right. Funny how the left can't accept that.

Yes, if only they were actual SCIENTISTS and not garbage men, bartenders, TeeVee weathermen and crab boat owners.
