Covid Inquiry: Concerns with former Children’s Commissioner Anne Longfield’s witness statement – Inconsistencies and a failure to mention Long Covid – COUNTER DISINFORMATION PROJECT MAR 28, 2024 UsForThem opposed all efforts to reduce transmission in schools, called for children to be allowed the “benefits” of infection, and coordinated an antivax campaign against child vaccination. The founder Molly Kingsley has shared calls for Nuremberg 2.0 against anyone involved in child vaccination and defended disgraced MP Bridgen’s claims that covid vaccines could be worse than the holocaust. Despite UsForThem’s disinformation and promotion of far-right conspiracy theories Longfield has continued to support them even submitting joint applications with them for other modules of the covid inquiry.
The anti-vax camp claims, against all evidence, that vaccine adverse effects are less rare than is known to be when that is absolutely not true and there’s no evidence of it. They have to make this claim of more widespread risk, because otherwise, they would have to admit to advocating everyone stop taking cholesterol pills, cancer treatments, and everything else that people know very well saves our own health and the lives of our loved ones through modern medical science, based on very rare cases of allergic reactions and the like. It is absolutely clear this is part of an overall covid contrarian Great Barrington Declaration natural herd immunity right-wing ideology that claims widespread infection is good, and protecting the general welfare through public health measures is not. This movement, and its claims, are authoritarian, anti-community, and against the public good.
