So Neil Ferguson the Imperial College epidemiologist was behind the disputed research that sparked the mass culling of eleven million sheep and cattle during the 2001 outbreak of foot-and-mouth disease.
He also predicted that up to 150,000 people could die. There were fewer than 200 deaths.
In 2002, Ferguson predicted that up to 50,000 people would likely die from exposure to BSE (mad cow disease) in beef. In the U.K., there were only 177 deaths from BSE.
In 2005, Ferguson predicted that up to 150 million people could be killed from bird flu. In the end, only 282 people died worldwide from the disease between 2003 and 2009.
In 2009, a government estimate, based on Ferguson’s advice, said a “reasonable worst-case scenario” was that the swine flu would lead to 65,000 British deaths. In the end, swine flu killed 457 people in the U.K.
Last March, Ferguson admitted that his Imperial College model of the COVID-19 disease was based on undocumented, 13-year-old computer code that was intended to be used for a feared influenza pandemic, rather than a coronavirus.
Ferguson declined to release his original code so other scientists could check his results. He only released a heavily revised set of code last week, after a six-week delay.
And these people make a living predicting Armageddon, then present a “solution”.
PROBLEM – REACTION -SOLUTION
The MSM are too corrupt, inept or lacking in curiosity to do a modicum of due diligence, and the average man on the street is too used to taking orders & spoon fed “information” from “experts” & these experts are never checked.
The “real experts” that provide substantial evidence backed up with FACTS which differs from the narrative gets banned. Where is the logic.
I mean dear God, CNN is now running that professional scam artist Greta as a “coronavirus expert”.
Thanks Miklos.
