RIO DE JANEIRO, BRAZIL – On Saturday, October 30, tens of thousands of protesters marched through London with the goal of warning England and the world about the increasingly authoritarian behavior of governments in many countries around the world.

The protest march, organized by the organization “Unite For Freedom”, was held under the slogan “No forced vaccinations, hands off our children, no Covid passport, transparency about vaccine damage and deaths!

“Shame on you, shame on you, shame on you”, chanted the crowds in London in front of Australia House, during massive protests in London this weekend.

The Australian state of Victoria will bar unvaccinated people from participating in the economy, Premier Dan Andrews has announced.

Victoria is currently under draconian blockade restrictions. Melbourne residents, who make up the vast majority of the state’s population, live under a 9 PM to 5 AM curfew and cannot leave their homes except to work, buy food, or receive Covid vaccinations.

The ‘Unite for Freedom’ protest marches are held every month in London and are organized by a number of groups including ‘Save Our Rights’.

Again this weekend, these large demonstrations were ignored in the British media and on political chats by the same media that write big stories about protest marches in Latin America that involve just 200 or 300 demonstrators.

HARVARD MEDICAL SCHOOL RESEARCH

Harvard Medical School professor Martin Kulldorff said already in September research showing that natural immunity offers exponentially more protection than vaccines means that vaccine passports are unscientific and discriminatory because they disproportionately affect working-class people.

“Previous Covid disease (lots of working-class) provides better immunity than vaccines (lots of professionals), so vaccine mandates are not only scientific nonsense, they are also discriminatory and unethical,” observed Kulldorff, a biostatistician, and epidemiologist, on Twitter.

Different studies, including one from Israel, show that natural immunity – gained by having had Covid-19 – offers better protection against a recurrence than vaccines.

Moreover, CDC’s own research shows that vaccinated people still get infected with Covid-19 and carry viral loads like unvaccinated people. These vaccines are either Messenger RNA (mRNA) vaccines such as Pfizer-BioNTech and the Moderna COVID-19 vaccines or Vector vaccines such as Janssen/Johnson & Johnson and AstraZeneca vaccines.

“The high viral loads suggest an increased risk of transmission and raised concerns that, unlike other variants, vaccinated persons infected with Delta can transmit the virus,” said Rochelle Walensky, director of the CDC.

These data suggest that vaccinated people still spread the virus in much the same way as unvaccinated people. So what is the point of using vaccine passports?

Vaccine passports are considered by an increasing amount of scientists and specialists as immoral and a massive government overreach even in the absence of these findings. There is no historical parallel for governments to restrict the movements of healthy people for a respiratory virus in this way.

Moreover, the authorities’ justification for vaccine passports becomes scientifically incorrect in light of these new revelations.
