HIGHLIGHTS FROM THE COVID-19 VACCINE ROLL-OUT DEBATE

On 8th December 2020 there was a debate in the Parliament of the United Kingdom about Covid-19 vaccine roll-out (see the full transcript of the debate) which was introduced by a short speech from Matt Hancock, the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, followed by comments and questions from the members of parliament. The whole debate was heavily impregnated with the following moods and opinions:

• On this “momentous day” the members of all five parties (Conservative Party, Labour Party, Liberal Democrats, Scottish National Party and Democratic Unionist Party) expressed unreserved faith in the miraculous power of the new GM Covid-19 vaccines; they were completely convinced that “it is only with a vaccine that we can finally defeat this virus and get life back to normal.” Therefore they were sharing great hope that with the new vaccine “help is on its way and the end is in sight – not just of this terrible pandemic but of the onerous restrictions that have made this year so hard for so many.”
• The members raised genuine concerns that “on the grounds of social justice” not one group of UK citizens will be left out (e.g. black or minority ethnic communities, residents of far away islands) – especially any group of vulnerable people  (e.g. refuges, homeless, mental health patients). And guided by the ideal that “nobody is safe until everybody is safe” – and with realisation that “this is a global pandemic and we need to address it globally” – they plan also to help the poorest countries in the world to vaccinate their populations. A few members even publicly announced: “I look forward to having my jab as soon as it is my turn, and I will encourage everybody I love to do the same.”
• The whole debate was marked by an unreserved optimism due to this “brilliant news” about “a monumental step in our fight against the coronavirus” and about “this historic day as the coronavirus vaccine programme begins.” To get vaccine so quick “is fantastic” and for that reason “it is the Christmas present we all wanted.” So “it is absolutely terrific to see that people right across this United Kingdom are being vaccinated right now according to need and we hope it can bring us all together.” Consequently “when the call to arms comes, please do take up the vaccine!” 
•  Members were also unanimously “paying tribute to the scientists, clinicians, trial volunteers and many others who have made it all possible” – to “the titanic effort of all those involved in the creation, manufacturing and distribution of the covid-19 vaccine.” They felt that they were witnessing “a great day for medicine, science and the population.” Therefore “thank goodness for science, thank goodness for international cooperation and thank goodness for our NHS.”
• Members were also “thrilled to see this historic moment” happening right in their country. “This is a proud day to be British” for it has not “happened by accident that we are the first country in the world to have approved this vaccine.” Hence we can say that “today is a great day for Britain and the world, and [we] thank all those involved on a global level to ensure that we have light at the end of the tunnel, and hope and optimism” – that is, we thank “Pfizer and BioNTech, the people who came up with and are manufacturing this vaccine.”

 

few observations

The above political debate demonstrates clearly that members of the UK Parliament demonstrate the extraordinary level of incompetence to deal with the challenging issues of health and disease, in the sense of an insight by one keen observer of American political realities that “for every complex problem there is an answer that is clear, simple, and wrong.” For the burning issues of human health and the origin of illnesses are extremely complex – even from a viewpoint of genuine science – and whoever thinks otherwise is simply not in accordance with the realities of existence. One doesn’t need to be any kind of medical expert to understand the basic truth that one cannot heal any illness if one doesn’t know what the true causes for its emergence are. And as true causes are never addressed by materialistic medical science it is time for people to wake up and take charge of their own health and the health of the loved ones.

If one just looks at the threefold constitution of the human being one can recognise Three Main Culprits for the Present Worldwide Health Crisis. For nowadays people do not suffer just with seasonal epidemics of respiratory diseases (to which belongs the present corona pandemic), but with a multitude of other diseases. The indisputable fact is that the whole of humanity is confronted with The Global Epidemic of Diseases of Modern Civilisation that will not disappear with any new miracle vaccine or miracle drug (even in the case where they were really effective) regardless of the comments of those politicians, medical experts and journalists that are obviously speaking according to the script of the marketing department of the cartel of the pharmaceutical corporations.

The level of debate by the members of the British parliament about Covid-19 vaccine roll-out clearly demonstrates that Brexit will not make any difference if the members of old parties stay in power. With such members in charge of decisions that are further impoverishing the UK citizens, suppressing their basic human rights and harming their health there is no hope for any positive change.  Therefore the time is more than ripe for new parties to emerge and to take over the corrupt political system of the past that serves nobody else but those who already have too much material wealth.
