BREAKING - Mass exodus from Paris. 800km of traffic jams in the city as people try to leave the city before 9 pm curfew and before confinement begins at midnight. A spike multiple times the normal traffic.pic.twitter.com/fb6TRDrtJ4

Our teams are now embedded in governments around the world, helping them to keep their people safe during this pandemic - not just in respect of Covid-19 itself but also the political and economic collateral damage.

A few weeks ago President Macron stated that another lockdown would be ruinous.
Now, despite the fact that lockdowns don't work (as I noted yesterday), he imposing another one. Except with an added twist, he is requesting people to wear masks even in their own homes!

"Fewer family & social gatherings.....respecting social distancing including at home, systematic wearing of masks when indoors in the presence of another person, even a close family member or child. It is very important for you."
This is utter madness, and is unenforceable!
Sadly the lockdown zealots will use France's new lockdown as a means with which to push their agenda for another lockdown in the UK.
Lockdowns KILL people and businesses!

The media, certain politicians and the SAGE "boffins" are calling for another lockdown, because the first one "worked so well"!
Just step back a minute and consider these points:
1 Lockdowns don't get rid of the virus (otherwise the first lockdown would have been a great success)
2 Lockdowns cause immense harm (economic, psychological, health - eg cancers not checked, education etc).
3 The costs (economic, psychological health, education etc) of lockdowns will be with us for many years.
It is very easy for politicians, the media, academics and the middle class to call for lockdowns when they can sit at home without having their income disrupted, safe in the knowledge that they will still have:
- Heating
- Electricity
- TV
- Phone services
- Internet
- Food, drink, fags etc
delivered to their homes by others.
However, just bear in mind that during these lockdowns millions of people have to still go outside their homes to work including, but not limited to, the following:
- medical staff
- police
- armed forces
- firemen
- postal workers
- delivery staff
- shop workers
- small shopkeepers
- milkmen
- bus drivers, tube drivers, train drivers, taxi drivers etc etc
- people who provide electricity, gas, water, internet, TV phone services etc
Therefore, when people call for a lockdown it is more than likely those calling for it won't have their livelihoods wrecked or have to continue to go outside of their homes to provide goods and services to others!
Note this well, every single day in the UK between 400-500 people die from cancer. The media don't report those deaths every day as they do Covid.
I would also note, that as a result of the lockdown those deaths (because people will have ignored symptoms or treatment has been delayed) will increase markedly in the years to come. The same will apply to other diseases.
Lockdowns KILL people and businesses!

On the 18 of September I sent the following FOI to the DHSC:
Dear Department of Health and Social Care,
Please can you advise what the percentage of false positive rate is wrt the current Covid tests?
Thank you.
Yours faithfully,

By law they should have provided me with an answer by 16 October.
As at 27 October, they have still NOT answered my question!
As the "non essential" items ban continues to unravel in Wales, Drakeford has come up with another wheeze.
Even though the current lockdown hasn't yet come to an end, Drakeford and his Labour henchment are planning another one in the New Year.
I am not a scientist, but doesn't this indicate that if they are already planning another lockdown that lockdowns don't work; and that even Drakeford (deluded as he is) knows this?

SAGE's calculator needs attention. Up to 107k deaths saved by Jan? Let's ignore the WHO IFR of 0.1% and go with CDC of 0.26%. That would imply 22million infections in UK so far meaning we're half way there. Very worst case scenario cannot mean more deaths than we've already had.

There you have it from the government itself, the lockdown will end up killing more people than covid19! https://t.co/jkCjv6MhC9

Defined paths (this is how things have been done before) and copycat policies are not always the best way to handle situations such as Covid, especially when they make things worse.
The trouble is, no country or leader will admit that they have got it wrong.
Hence many countries are now doubling down on restrictions that will make things worse.www.nannyknowsbest.com is brought to you by www.kenfrost.com "The Living Brand"

My thoughts and prayers are with the good people of Scotland, as their "leader" reimposes a policy that didn't rid the country of the virus last time and most certainly won't do it this time.
Repeating the same self harming action time and time again, in the hope that something will come along that will negate you having to repeat those actions, is not a strategy, it is an admission of failure!

The bottom line here is that the tests are unreliable and the figures reported each day are not to be trusted.
As such, to base decisions on these statistics is crazy. Nanny ought to be looking at hospital admissions (those being admitted with Covid) to get a sense of what is actually happening.
