"So, now we know what it’s all about: it’s an excuse for the Government to declare war on the elderly. And the first move in that war is to imprison and isolate everyone over 70. Whether we like it or not we oldies are going to be locked in for our own good. (It’s always for our own good, isn’t it?) We are going to be locked in for ‘just’ four months. But perhaps longer. Maybe permanently. But it’s not really for our sake, is it? They don’t give a stuff if we live or die."

"They would never dare tell any other group of people that they had to stay in their homes. There would be huge rows and much talk about human rights. But no one gives a damn about the elderly. We’re regarded as a useless burden. We’ve served our purpose, worked and paid taxes, and now we can fade away. We voted to leave the EU and so we must be punished. Dump the old folks on the hillsides and let them quietly die and rot. In reality, this blatant act of age discrimination has absolutely nothing whatsoever to do with the disease. There are 50-year-olds with respiratory disease who would die if they got within a hundred yards of any flu infection and there are 90-year-olds who run marathons faster than anyone in the Cabinet could open a bottle of gin. They’re not locking us in to protect us. They don’t give a toss if we live or die. They are locking us in to deny us access to the NHS we paid for. They’re locking up the elderly because they can and because we’re considered a liability and a bloody nuisance. We get locked in our own homes. No visitors. No contact with the outside world. Ignored and forgotten. They say we will get our food supplies left on our doorsteps lest we get to see a person and say ‘hello’. That’s nice of them. Who, pray is going to do all the delivering? Our local supermarkets are already unable to cope with the demand for home deliveries. Volunteers? Don’t make me laugh. Most of the volunteering in Britain is done by old folk and they’re all going to be locked in. What are we supposed to do if a delivery does come? Pop out and grab our allocated groceries off the step before they are stolen or soaked in the rain? There will probably be no plastic bags; just a loose pile of groceries sitting there, amidst the dead leaves and the dog-shit, for us to pick up and drag into our homes. Solitary joys will be provided by daytime television. If it’s anywhere near as bad as it was when I was a regular ‘performer’ the days will drag for those who tune in. We won’t be allowed to go out to the post box. Those without phones won’t be allowed out to use the phone box. We won’t be allowed to put out our rubbish because that would mean leaving the house and venturing out into the world. If there are several people living in a house, and one of them is over 70, then they will all be locked in otherwise the rule doesn’t make any sense. How many families will survive being locked up for months and months? They’ve already told us oldies that we will be denied NHS care. And there won’t be any private care because the NHS has bought up all the private beds. We don’t qualify for being tested to see if we are infected because we’re too old to matter. (The testing is meaningless, by the way. Just because you test ‘negative’ on Tuesday doesn’t mean that you won’t test ‘positive’ on Wednesday.) Some GPs, who will be too busy filling in notifiable disease forms to waste their valuable time on patients, say they won’t visit old people. If we fall ill and collapse then we’ll be left to die and slowly rot. I wonder if undertakers will be allowed in to collect us. I’m so glad I paid my taxes for more than half a century. The millennials, who have paid little, are the lucky but undeserving recipients of my largesse."

"If we dare to step outside our homes we will doubtless be arrested. The world is full of snitches these days. The people who have cameras on their car dashboards will be eager to tell the authorities that the old woman at No 14 has just slipped out in her slippers and hobbled home with fresh bread, a bottle of stout and a jumbo sized packet of aspirin tablets. The poor old sod at no 27 who takes his dog for a brief walk at 1.00 a.m. will be dobbed in too. I wonder if they’ll arrest poor Fido too. The police don’t have time to arrest burglars or muggers but I bet they’ll find the time to arrest the rebellious old folk who venture out of doors – even if they are taking the dog for a walk or buying in a little food. As it happens, I don’t much mind staying in. We have plenty of books and DVDs. Antoinette and I can both keep busy and amuse ourselves. But I want to stay in because I want to stay in and not because some patronising, bullying, heavy-booted fascist bastards in London tell me I have to stay in. And I have many reasons why I will need to go out. The shops and cafes will be closed but I need to see the dentist. I need to visit the optician. I need to visit the bank occasionally to pay in cheques and pay bills. I will, presumably, be denied access to these essential services. Murderers get to see a dentist and an optician. But not the over 70s. I shall want to buy a birthday card for my wife. And, if there are any shops still open, a present too. Far more importantly, Antoinette (who has breast cancer) needs a mammogram soon (if the NHS has abandoned its collective impersonation of a bunch of headless chickens and is still doing mammograms). She needs to have her B12 injections. She needs to visit the physiotherapist. She has to pick up supplies of her tamoxifen. If Boris and Co think I’m letting her go to the hospital by herself they’re pottier than I think they are. And if we don’t drive the car then the battery will be dead and the engine will seize up. Locking us all in our homes for the solitary sin of being old is something new. However, in the words of the great and immortal Patrick McGoohan, I am not a prisoner or a number. I will take Antoinette to her hospital appointments if hospitals are open. I will go to the dentist if dentists are open. I will do what needs to be done. I will decide for myself how I will live my life. What are they going to do if we all ignored the law? There’s a problem the bastards haven’t thought of. What will they do with their prisoners? Shackle them? Put them in prison? Fit them with those ankle bracelets used for criminals and terrorists? We can’t go to court if we’re arrested and charged because we aren’t allowed to leave our homes."

VERY IMPORTANT NOTE

"This book deals with the decision in the early spring of 2020 to put large populations under house arrest and to close factories, shops and all businesses not regarded as essential. It also deals with the aftermath of those decisions. The part dealing with the lockdowns is based entirely on fact. The part dealing with the future is, inevitably, largely conjecture. In order to publish this book I was informed that I had to remove all references to the name of the problem which triggered the close downs. And so you will not find herein any reference to a word describing a disease which begins with the third letter of the alphabet. Nor will you find any reference to a disease name which ends with a number which is slightly greater than 18 and slightly smaller than 20. In addition, in view of proposed new legislation which will make it illegal for anyone (including doctors) to share facts and opinions about a specific medical procedure, I have avoided using a word beginning with ‘v’ and used the word inoculation instead."

"We are, I say again, heading for an apocalypse. The seriously troubling days of lockdowns, road blocks and threats of rationing may have seemed scary but they were the days of relative calm before a manufactured storm of unprecedented ferocity. I suppose the world’s governments could have made a bigger mess of dealing with the ‘crisis’ but it is difficult to see how."

"Meanwhile, there is much concern that the Chinese might be suppressing some facts. My own experience with the Chinese makes me worry. A few years ago I wrote a column for a large Chinese newspaper. One week I wrote a piece about inoculation. The result was to ban the column and fire me. Fair enough. But within days my Chinese book publishers (who had been very successful with a number of my medical books) wrote to tell me that they would no longer be dealing with me. The books they had would no longer be sold and they would not consider any new books. I subsequently wrote to several other Chinese publishers. None of them would have anything to do with my books – even though the previous publisher must have made quite a lot of money out of them. I was told that within days the Chinese Government had introduced a widespread ban on all medical books by foreign authors. Imagine how the Chinese might act to suppress news about a potentially serious epidemic which would have an effect on their reputation and economy."

"Or maybe the aim is to soften us up and prepare us for compulsory inoculation. There will doubtless be stuff from a syringe available within a few months and if the scare is big enough the authorities will be able to introduce laws forcing us all to be inoculated. And once one type of inoculation becomes compulsory then the same will happen with other stuff from syringes. Am I being paranoid? No. I don’t think so."

"It seems to me that the excitement is the AIDS scare all over again. Remember when the BMA warned us that everyone would be affected by the year 2000? TV and newspapers were united in ignoring the facts and promoting the fear. I got into terrible trouble for arguing (accurately) that the fear was exaggerated and that the evidence had been distorted by lobbyists. The nonsense terrified people so much that some committed suicide. Fear is used to oppress and distract. Watch out for compulsory inoculation.

The stock market is behaving as though the disease is going to kill everyone and destroy all commerce. Well, if it does then there won’t be any point in holding any shares."

"We clearly haven’t been told the truth about the disease. No Government could possibly be as inept as this one has been in ‘managing’ this alleged sudden outbreak – unless there was something else going on."

If the Government really wanted to protect us they would have closed airports and banned flights and international travel. But they didn’t. And why should we trust what we are told? We all know that Governments lie to the citizens all the time. Governments lied incessantly about the wars in Iraq, Afghanistan and elsewhere. We were told we were fighting for freedom but everyone with functioning cerebral tissue knows we were fighting for oil. So, why should we believe what we are told now? I now suspect that the disease has been outside China for some time – almost certainly for at least a month and probably longer. And, although I have struggled to suppress my suspicions, I now firmly believe there is a hidden agenda here. What is it? Well, actually, there are two. The first possibility is that governments around the world are going to ‘discover’ a wonderful inoculation. And it will be compulsory – setting a precedent. Can it really be a coincidence that for months now the authorities (aided by the media) have been demonising anyone who questions the effectiveness and safety of inoculation? All discussion is now banned and in some countries doctors can lose their licences if they dare to question inoculation. (I have, for some years, been banned from all UK media because I have shared the truth about inoculation in my books and articles.)"

"The second possibility is that the changes introduced as a result of the ‘crisis’ are designed to get rid of a huge demographic problem: the number of old people in the world. Rising populations and falling birth rates mean that there are huge problems ahead. Who will pay for pensions and health care for the huge numbers of elderly folk around? Well, one convenient thing about this disease appears to be that it seems to target the elderly. That’s unusual. Very few, if any, diseases attack only the elderly. Diseases of this kind usually attack the weak, the frail and the very young. But this one, so we are told, targets the elderly – not just the weakest but all people over 70. And that is very strange. Is it possible that the infection has been designed to kill off older folk? It would not be difficult to do. But no one seems to find this strange or worrying. Indeed, over the last few days, there have been numerous instances of people cheering at the thought of a disease which will kill the old. ‘It will clear hospital beds,’ said one. ‘It only kills oldies,’ said another, dismissing the infection as irrelevant. Social media users have been cheering the fact that millions of old people may die. If someone had said ‘It only kills gays’ or ‘It only affects Arabs’ or ‘It only targets Jews’ – the police would have been on their doorstep in minutes. They would, rightly, have been arrested, charged and thrown into prison. But you can say what you like about the elderly and no one cares."

"Is this the beginning of a great ‘cleansing’ of modern societies? Get rid of the old folk and preserve the planet for the bright, young things? I’m afraid my twin fears cannot be dismissed as paranoid delusions."

Indeed, Dr. C. They've been training us Five Eyes people for generations now, to disrespect the Elders and ignore them-- apparently because the Elders are old enough to have seen enough chicanery to recognize it readily.

I wonder if this great old guy has heard later views (later than 2020, that is) about contagion and viruses and the PCR, and so forth...

But I like him regardless, he's a tough old dog with a lot of spirit.

Edwin, have you seen this video? https://rumble.com/v1ga1e5-dr.-merritt-interview-with-poornima-wagh-phd-virology.html
