When South Africans go to the polls today, it could be the last time the governing ANC wins an overall majority, unless the party renews itself and starts delivering on its promises to increasingly disgruntled supporters.W
Correlation between universal BCG vaccination policy and reduced morbidity and mortality for COVID-19: an epidemiological study
The former chief of neuroradiology at Stanford University said the United States needs to end widespread coronavirus lockdowns and adopt a more targeted approach that both protects the most vulnerable people and builds immunity in the population.
A brilliant open letter to the President from someone who started his business empire from the boot of his car.
It is my hypothesis that there has been a silent coup that has taken place in South Africa since the onset of the COVID-19 virus hit our shores. The coup is two-fold, the first is that it is blatantly
obvious that despite talks of a new dawn, the ANC is still run by the captured cabal of the NEC. The second coup is that of the end to our Democracy.
Neil Ferguson, professor of mathematical biology at Imperial College London – a much revered left-leaning institution – was treated with a ‘near-Gospel’ deference. Ferguson is the academic whose modelling, predicting hundreds of thousands of deaths from COVID-19 in the UK alone, is largely responsible for the lockdown.
Neil Ferguson’s from the Royal Imperial College of London shot to fame when he followed his usual alarmist protocol that WHO and most world leaders loved.
He is famous for getting the stats wrong on many viral outbreaks in the past 10 years.
Stanford and most other highly esteemed universities publicly questioned his mathematical model based on January stats from Wuhan’s dying infected cases. Sadly the fact that his theories were shot down in flames by many of the world’s top scientists went over most peoples’ heads.
He has had to backtrack on his predictions several times.
Mr. Gay World™ regrets to announce that the Mr. Gay World™ 2020 contest has been postponed to next year, in response to the global COVID-19 pandemic and associated lockdowns.
“It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of foolishness , it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, it was the season of Light, it was the season of Darkness…”
Civil disobedience has become everyone’s moral duty. If you don’t agree then you’re part of the problem, not the solution. Stand up and say no to government’s idiocy and draconian power grab.
The lockdown will lead to 29 times more lives lost than the harm it seeks to prevent from Covid-19 in SA, according to a conservative estimate contained in a new model developed by local actuaries.
There is no question that the Covid-19 lockdown is tearing at the fabric of the country and ordinary people are starting to notice – and panic.
Perspectives on the Pandemic Episode 2: In this explosive second edition of Perspectives on the Pandemic, Professor Knut Wittkowski, for twenty years head of The Rockefeller University’s Department of Biostatistics, Epidemiology, and Research Design, says that social distancing and lockdown is the absolutely worst way to deal with an airborne respiratory virus.
With so many galleries, exhibitions and events being forced to close or cancel due to COVID-19, many living artists are understandably concerned with what this may mean for them and their families. Now is an important time to support our artists and the critical role they play in world society.
The various factions within the ANC have used the coronavirus pandemic as an opportunity to fast-track their
ideological positions from behind the scenes. One sees this being displayed almost daily. Before you accuse me
of being a conspiracy theorist, I will endeavour to back up my claims.
The DA welcomes the judgment handed down today in the North Gauteng High Court in the matter of Democratic Alliance and 3 others v The Premier for the Province of Gauteng and 16 others, in which the decision by the Gauteng provincial government to place the City of Tshwane under administration was overturned. The judgment also ordered all ANC and EFF council members to attend future council meetings unless they have a lawful reason to be absent.
Since the beginning of the Covid-19 outbreak, we’ve been hearing all about the case fatality rate of the disease, which in some countries, including the European Union on average, runs above 10%.
The ANC parliamentary study group on tourism has come out in support of tourism minister Mmamoloko Kubayi-Ngubane’s use of BBBEE as a requirement for businesses to qualify for the tourism relief fund.
Coronavirus death rates are almost six times lower in countries with a widespread vaccination programme involving the Bacillus Calmette-Guérin (BCG) jab, a new study has found.
The biggest public health risk in Africa is not Covid-19, but the consequences of regional and global measures designed to reduce its effect on public health. The cost-benefit analysis of these measures yields a different result in Africa than in Europe, North America and large parts of Asia.
