https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Great_Barrington_Declaration

quote:

The Great Barrington Declaration is a statement advocating an alternative approach to the COVID-19 pandemic which involves "Focused Protection" of those most at risk and seeks to avoid or minimize the societal harm of the COVID-19 lockdowns. Authored by Sunetra Gupta of the University of Oxford, Jay Bhattacharya of Stanford University, and Martin Kulldorff of Harvard University, it was drafted at the American Institute for Economic Research in Great Barrington, Massachusetts, and signed there on 4 October 2020.

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-9098411/Troubled-path-approval-Oxfords-vaccine-professors-jab-make-MILLIONS.html

quote:

Britain today approved the Oxford/AstraZeneca Covid-19 vaccine, paving the way for millions to receive the jab within weeks and offering hope that the UK could be 'out' of the coronavirus crisis by the spring.

Oxford professors Sarah Gilbert and Adrian Hill - who helped develop the jab - stand to make millions of pounds through start-up Vaccitech, which created the experimental shot alongside experts at the university's Jenner Institute.

Vaccitech is a private firm which owns intellectual property used in the vaccine's development. They together own about 10 per cent of the Oxford-based company, which will benefit both from royalties from the vaccine and 'milestone' payments.

quote:

Her colleague Professor Hill, 62, married Sunetra Gupta, 55, a professor of theoretical epidemiology at Oxford, in 1994.

She hit the headlines earlier this year for calling for herd immunity to fight the pandemic, saying that lockdowns were a bad idea.

Literally the wife of the guy who has ownership of the AstraZeneca vaccine patent

Let's just keep saying "it's endemic" and then "like cold and flu" instead of other previously-endemic diseases with similarly awful long term population outcomes like hookworm or polio that the government eventually dedicated the time and money to eradicate.

And of course "it'll be endemic" (in five years) (after millions more deaths) is a useful red herring in itself.

Not yet (only just got my 2nd last month) but I'm tempted to go to a drop in clinic and make up something about having moved house recently/not being on a GP register. GP practice seems to be how they make the lists so that might be enough of a kludge to get them to shrug their shoulders and wave you through. Particularly if you say you were last registered in Scotland/Northern Ireland (delete as appropriate) ten years ago because gently caress if they'll have records of that.

the Astrazenca vaccine was also the one Bill Gates convinced Oxford not to make public domain
https://khn.org/news/rather-than-give-away-its-covid-vaccine-oxford-makes-a-deal-with-drugmaker/

quote:

Oxford University surprised and pleased advocates of overhauling the vaccine business in April by promising to donate the rights to its promising coronavirus vaccine to any drugmaker.

The idea was to provide medicines preventing or treating COVID-19 at a low cost or free of charge, the British university said. That made sense to people seeking change. The coronavirus was raging. Many agreed that traditional vaccine development, characterized by long lead times, manufacturing monopolies and weak investment, was broken.

“We actually thought they were going to do that,” James Love, director of Knowledge Ecology International, a nonprofit that works to expand access to medical technology, said of Oxford’s pledge. “Why wouldn’t people agree to let everyone have access to the best vaccines possible?”

A few weeks later, Oxford—urged on by the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation—reversed course. It signed an exclusive vaccine deal with AstraZeneca that gave the pharmaceutical giant sole rights and no guarantee of low prices—with the less-publicized potential for Oxford to eventually make millions from the deal and win plenty of prestige.

Other companies working on coronavirus vaccines have followed the same line, collecting billions in government grants, hoarding patents, revealing as little as possible about their deals—and planning to charge up to $37 a dose for potentially hundreds of millions of shots.
