Letters I wrote to UK Government re COVID19

Here are some highlights of letters that I wrote to my Member of Parliament and to the UK government Prime Minister, Health Minister, the Shadow Health Minister and others on the subject of CO|VID-19. I received no reply to any of them except from Philip Hollobone, my local MP, who messaged Matt Hancock on my behalf and got a fairly terse reply. 1st March my email to MP: : 1mar: We are now no longer part of the nonsensical "freedom of movement of people" dogma that pervades the EU. This could be a deadly conceit on their part. We will see how it pans out for them. In my view, we should look to closing the Channel Tunnel and shutting off flights and ships not only from certain parts of CHina but from S. Korea, Italy, Iran and possibly others as this develops. Failure to act on this holds enormous risks in my view. I don't believe the platitudes from the WHO and some of the talking heads on TV. They are ignoring the high case fatality rate of this disease and assumin...

COVID-19 exit strategy 2 years alternating lockdown and release Here is the Imperial College research link and also an interview with another researcher. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R1wkV2IzR_U I wrote in a comment that Professor Gunther Shonrich is saying that herd immunity is basically inevitable so good luck. I think it probably is because the thing is so contagious. We are all going to have to take our chance with it, especially next winter. He is talking about things like the Imperial College study pages 10 & 12, note the 2/3 lockdown, 1/3 release diagram on p12:  https://www.imperial.ac.uk/media/imperial-college/medicine/sph/ide/gida-fellowships/Imperial-College-COVID19-NPI-modelling-16-03-2020.pdf The study has these figures. A picture paints 1000 words. They are in reverse order from that shown iin tht eoriginal paper: Alternating lockdowns and not-lockdowns until end of 2021 possible: How the epidemic curves are modified by some interventions but yo...

Rest of World rate of Change is faster than in China for COVID cases.

Image
Hi All, The following chart shows that COVID19 novel coronavirus cases in the rest of the world are now rising at a faster percentage rate than in China - on four different metrics. See chart below. Four lines are represented. All have started to slope upwards. Explanation below. Purple line: Total rest of world cases vs Chinese cases as %. Started to rise mainly due to rapid increase in Diamond Princess ("International Conveyance") cases. Red line: Rest of World EXCLUDING the Diamond Princess cruise ship has just started to trend up vs the China total. However, China includes Wuhan in Hubei which has been the epicentre and has suffered the worst death rates and the worst case numbers so far. I noticed a significant difference between the rates of growth in Hubei province versus the rest of China. Hubei has risen faster than Rest of China during the whole epidemic and has taken up an ever higher percentage of Chinese cases. Therefore, I concluded that it was i...
