Boris Johnson's Top Priority: Stop the Spread of Coronavirus

Ed.'s note: Stop the spread of coronavirus? It's been around for as long as humans have been around Boris, good luck. Another stunt from the City of London. Please, everyone wash your hands. Looks as though Boris Johnson has "shaken too many hands of people with coronavirus" as the coronavirus will be Boris Johnson's "defining moment." Boris here has tested positive, ladies and gentlemen. That's right, positive so Boris will be working from his home for awhile. Boris, we have a different opinion: a horror movie released worldwide in theaters of the mind. You too can be a snitch in the UK: UK Police Creates Hotline for People to Snitch on Their Neigbours

In 2009 UK government experts wildly over-hyped dangers of swine flu — is history repeating with Covid-19?

"This is a national challenge and I would like to announce to the British people I have tested positive."


Does anyone think they can't make it any easier for us to see what is going on?

Neil Ferguson, the Scientist Who Convinced Boris Johnson of UK Covid Lockdown, Isn't Very Bright

He has made sensationalist — and incredibly costly — predictions which fell wide off the mark before, yet the government keeps turning to him

The Great Hysteria Pandemic

By Katherine Rushton | March 29, 2020

He was scaremongering that 150,000 people could die from the Mad Cow disease on the basis of which the UK ordered the destruction of a gigantic number of perfectly healthy animals costing farmer's livelihoods and £10bn of totally needless economic damage

The scientist whose calculations about the potentially devastating impact of the coronavirus directly led to the countrywide lockdown has been criticised in the past for flawed research.

Professor Neil Ferguson, of the MRC Centre for Global Infectious Disease Analysis at Imperial College in London, produced a paper predicting that Britain was on course to lose 250,000 people during the coronavirus epidemic unless stringent measures were taken. His research is said to have convinced Prime Minister Boris Johnson and his advisors to introduce the lockdown.

However, it has now emerged that Ferguson has been criticised in the past for making predictions based on allegedly faulty assumptions which nevertheless shaped government strategies and impacted the UK economy.

He was behind disputed research that sparked the mass culling of farm animals during the 2001 epidemic of foot and mouth disease, a crisis which cost the country billions of pounds.

And separately he also predicted that up to 150,000 people could die from bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE, or 'mad cow disease') and its equivalent in sheep if it made the leap to humans. To date there have been fewer than 200 deaths from the human form of BSE and none resulting from sheep to human transmission.

Mr Ferguson's foot and mouth disease (FMD) research has been the focus of two highly critical academic papers which identified allegedly problematic assumptions in his mathematical modelling.

The scientist has robustly defended his work, saying that he had worked with limited data and limited time so the models weren't 100 per cent right – but that the conclusions it reached were valid.

Michael Thrusfield, professor of veterinary epidemiology at Edinburgh University, who co-authored both of the critical reports, said that they had been intended as a "cautionary tale" about how mathematical models are sometimes used to predict the spread of disease.

He described his sense of "déjà vu" when he read Mr Ferguson's Imperial College paper on coronavirus, which was published earlier this month.

That paper – Impact of non-pharmaceutical interventions (NPIs) to reduce COVID19 mortality and healthcare demand – warned that if no action were taken to control the coronavirus, around 510,000 people in Britain would lose their lives.
