'Professor Lockdown' Neil Ferguson warns Indian variant is between 30% and 100% more infectious and twice as likely to cause hospitalisation in the unvaccinated
Daily Mail ^ | June 4 | By CONNOR BOYD ASSISTANT HEALTH EDITOR FOR MAILONLINE and JACK WRIGHT FOR MAILONLINE

'Professor Lockdown' Neil Ferguson warned today the Indian 'Delta' variant could be 100 per cent more infectious than the Kent one as official data showed it's also twice as likely to put unvaccinated patients in hospital.

The senior SAGE modeller — dubbed Professor Lockdown for his terrifying death predictions that prompted the first shutdown last March — warned the emerging evidence about the variant was not positive 'in any respect'.

He said the mutant Covid strain was between 30 and 100 per cent more virulent than the previously dominant Kent variant and that 'a good central estimate' would be 60 per cent.

A study published last night also suggested that the Pfizer vaccine works less well at preventing infections of the Indian version, with people given that jab producing fewer antibodies targeting the virus compared to other strains.

Public Health England for the first time last night confirmed that the new variant was dominant in the UK, replacing the Kent version. And Britain's daily infections also rose above 5,000 yesterday for the first time since the country was still in lockdown in late March, with cases of the Indian variant doubling every nine days.

Asked about whether the new evidence would put England's June 21 'Freedom Day' in jeopardy, Professor Ferguson said the data 'is pointing in a more negative direction than it was last week.'

This is never going away folks...

More strains, more lockdowns, masks, vaccines etc. It's just so perfect for the globalists and their agenda!

Yes. There are too many apparent coincidence for this to have been by accident.

There are no coincidences.

Of course, there’s the term ‘cases’ used again. As if we’re supposed to take that as anything other then garbage data.

it's also twice as likely to put unvaccinated patients in hospital.

It's ALL about the unvaccinated! If you have "chosen" to remain unjabbed by the experimental injection you must be "dealt" with. Everyone who has not entered in to their experiment must be shamed and the propagandists must continue the 24/7 barrage to get them to "cross over" to take the jab.

I am surrounded by people that the only reason they have taken the jab was to "shut up" the Karen's in their life!

Ferguson's the clown whose modeling software was determined to be a bug-filled, useless piece of crap. It was Ferguson's predictions that gave the "elites" justification to destroy Western economies by hard lockdowns. His predictions of millions dead in the UK and US were ridiculously far off the mark. In addition, Ferguson, whose nickname in the UK is "Professor Pantsdown," was caught visiting his married girlfriend during the UK lockdowns, in spite of him publically pleading with the populace to respect them. This guy is a fraud, through and through. Yet the UK press keeps rolling him out as an "expert." I believe nothing this goofball says.

By the way, the gal who he was sneaking off to plook is a wealthy, self described hardcore leftist.

Fear porn. The “variant” strains of COVID-19 Wuhan virus respond the same way to zin++ ion and an effective ionophore like Vitamin C, Vitamin D3, hydroxyquinone, quercetin or epigallocatechin-gallate. The combinations have proved effective in directly stalling out the replication of the COVID-19 virus particles, either preventing the infection from gaining a foothold in the lung tissues, or mitigating its further development, resulting in only a very mild infection.

Fear porn is a great description.

These people are power crazed and evil. They don’t want it to end that is clear...

We must resist them!

What a massive mess of confusion these scientists, gov. officials, Dr.s, speakers and the lot of them have created over this disease.

People need to come to terms with that.

People need to realize this was made and released intentionally. Only then can we act properly.

Statistically speaking, one of his guesses will prove to be right. When that will be is anybody’s guess.

That’s why it was designed. RNA virus.. perfect weapon. Viral hep C and hiv.. lots of data to support that it will never leave and. I am curious where the virus itself goes to hide in the body after the immune system suppresses it.
You didn’t think there was only one lab and only one virus designed did you.
Hopefully I will get one of these. I stopped wearing a mask in June of 2020, except work requires it. Still does.
