The global COVID-19 response was not just flawed. It was fundamentally misguided.
Policies
like lockdowns, universal masking, and mass vaccination campaigns with
poorly evaluated experimental genetic interventions were implemented
with sweeping authority but without adequate scientific scrutiny.
Mounting evidence suggests that these strategies not only failed to
prevent widespread transmission but also introduced new, long-term risks
to public health. Critical decisions were made hastily despite early
warnings about the dangers of targeting the full spike protein, a viral
component with known homology to human tissues. These misled decisions raised serious concerns about autoimmune consequences.
Even
more troubling was the coordinated dismissal of viable alternatives and
the suppression of dissenting data. Well-documented early treatments
were sidelined in favor of a singular, experimental platform. Government
regulatory bodies fast-tracked approvals while relying solely on
industry-submitted data in order to bypass essential safety evaluations.
As adverse outcomes emerged—from immune system exhaustion to cancer
relapses—there was a code of premeditated silence. Scientific
transparency was nowhere to be found because the pandemic playbook
prioritized compliance over caution and viable dissenting medical
expertise.
The
global response to the COVID-19 pandemic, particularly in the United
States and United Kingdom, represents a moment of grave misjudgment and
systemic failure across multiple layers of government and public health
leadership. Drawing from decades of experience in oncology, virology,
and immunology, Dr. Angus Dalgleish, a
professor emeritus of oncology at the University of London and a
co-discoverer of the CD4 receptor as the major cellular receptor for
HIV, is a dissenting voice who early in the pandemic became
disillusioned with the decisions that shaped American and British
pandemic strategies. Dr. Dalgleish asserts that the lockdowns, mask
mandates, and mRNA vaccines not only failed to mitigate the crisis but
also introduced new health risks that are turning out to be lethal.
Dalgleish
was one of a small number of medical professionals who became aware of
COVID-19 well before its official recognition. As early as November
2019, he spoke with individuals who displayed symptoms that, in
retrospect, were classically consistent with COVID-19. His early concern
was driven by the potential of a widespread outbreak; however, it was
not until the SARS-CoV-2’s viral sequence was released that a scientific
alarm truly sounded.
What
is particularly disturbing about Dr. Dalgleih’s story is that it
exemplifies the pandemic of psychologically deranged hubris and near
criminal behavior among our medical officials and the private
pharmaceutical sector eager to profit from human misfortune. As the
pandemic was underway, he was collaborating with Berger Sørensen of
Bynor Pharma in Norway. Together they were developing a promising HIV
vaccine with robust clinical data showing it could significantly reduce
viral load in treated patients. However, their methodology diverged from
the mainstream method of using an entire viral envelope, which involves
thousands of antigens. Repeatedly these mainstream efforts were proven
ineffective. The Dalgleish-Sørensen team on the other hand focused on a
few specific viral epitopes to yield successful results. Despite their
efforts, the major global health organizations such as the government
health agencies and the Bill Gates Foundation, dismissed their results
outright. This work could
have been a precedent when the COVID-19 genetic sequence became
available. Rather our public health officials made the decision to
repeat the same immunological mistakes. The mainstream strategy targeted
the virus’s full spike protein that interacts directly with ACE2
receptors. This is what makes the current Covid-19 vaccines so
hazardous. Dr. Sørensen’s research found that 79 percent of the spike
protein shares homology with human proteins. This is why the Covid-19
vaccines are high-risk for autoimmune complications and evidence now
shows this to be the case with certainty.
Drs.
Dalgleish and Sørensen communicated their findings to the UK’s Chief
Medical Officer Christopher Whitty, Her Majesty’s Government Chief
Scientific Adviser Sir Patrick Vallance, and the former head of the British Secret Intelligence Service Sir Richard Dearlove. The British government ignored their warnings. Even
a well-documented immune stimulant, which Dr. Dalgleish had
successfully used for cancer patients to strengthen innate immunity and
protect against viral infections, was dismissed on the pretext of
insufficient animal studies. This was despite the stimulant’s proven
track record in humans.
The
consequences of American and British health official denials were on
full display when lockdowns were implemented. From the outset, these
flawed pandemic measures would prove to be catastrophic. Moreover, there
was no credible analysis of the collateral damage such rules would
cause. Numerous physicians and healthcare workers witnessed an immediate
decline in patient care, such as delayed diagnoses, interrupted
treatments, and postponed surgeries. Perhaps cardiovascular patients
suffered the most neglect. For Dr. Dalgleish, and now many other health
professionals, these actions seemed less like emergency responses and
more like elements of a pre-determined script, especially when policies
such as universal masking were based on flawed logic.
The
most egregious scientific failure, however, was the wholesale
commitment to mRNA vaccine platforms developed by Pfizer and Moderna.
Every deployed vaccine relied upon the full spike protein. This is
precisely the approach Dalgleish and Sørensen warned against. A more
effective strategy would have been using four conserved viral epitopes
to create cross-protective immunity and to eliminate concerns about
viral mutation. Nevertheless, this alternative model was ignored in
favor of a one-size-fits-all vaccine race conducted at “warp speed.”
Efforts
to develop a coronavirus vaccine have been made for over 20 years and
none ever demonstrated durable efficacy. None got past animal trials.
Worse, these earlier efforts often induced a phenomenon known as
antigenic sin or immunological imprinting, wherein the immune system
becomes fixated on an outdated version of a virus that will undermine
future immune responses. This effect is compounded by antibody-dependent
enhancement (ADE), which is when our antibodies not only fail to
neutralize new viral variants but actually facilitate their entry into
host cells. This is why we are observing individuals receiving multiple
mRNA boosters becoming more susceptible to Covid infections.
Equally
alarming is the suppression of T-cell responses. Dr. Dalgleish’s
laboratory data showed that the mRNA vaccines do not adequately activate
T-cells, which are crucial for viral and cancer immunity. Repeated
vaccine boosters actually exhaust T-cells. This
phenomenon was documented in late 2022 by the oncology division at the
Health Research Institute of San Carlos in Spain and subsequently
corroborated by others.
During
our interview with Dr. Dalgleish, he noted that he became particularly
worried when stable melanoma patients began to quickly relapse after
mRNA boosters. Upon investigation, the only common factor was that they
had received a third or fourth COVID vaccine dose. Despite presenting
his findings to the medical authorities, he was told to remain silent so
as not to “upset” patients. However the findings circulated globally,
and more and more clinicians have been forthcoming to report similar
patterns.
Turbo-cancers,
which are unexpected aggressive metastasizing tumors, also began
appearing in vaccinated patients. Young people with no history of
disease developed sudden autoimmune disorders, strokes, and cardiac
failure. Stillbirths and miscarriages spiked and these tragedies were
still ignored or suppressed by major health institutions.
We
now know that patients with chronic conditions, such as cancer,
cardiovascular disease, Alzheimer’s, diabetes, etc, were among those
most vulnerable to vaccine-induced harm. The lipid nanoparticles used to
deliver the spike protein do not degrade as claimed. They persist in
the body and we now know they trigger continuous immune activation. The
result is systemic inflammation, immune system exhaustion, and in many
cases organ failure. Studies have now shown these spike proteins can
continue replicating 800 days after injection. This is a catastrophic
scenario for individuals with autoimmune susceptibility.
One
of the most chilling discoveries came not from hospitals but
mortuaries. British undertakers began reporting unprecedented white,
rubbery clots obstructing arteries that prevented embalming. Some clots
were six feet long. These are not normal post-mortem findings. When
morticians and pathologists around the world began comparing notes, a
terrifying consensus emerged: the mRNA vaccines were producing
self-organizing, persistent clots capable of killing without warning.
Adding
to the concern is the underlying technology of mRNA vaccines. Dr.
Dalgleish is also a former board member of CureVac, a pioneering mRNA
company; therefore he has deep insight into the limitations of the mRNA
platform. These drugs are improperly classified as vaccines, although
none have ever successfully passed clinical thresholds even in
oncological vaccine development. To deploy them under emergency
authorization, without resolving their many problematic issues related
to stabilization and immune dysregulation, was blatant recklessness.
These formulations can persist in the body for long periods of time, and
their immunogenic effects can be profoundly deleterious.
Even
the suppression of common sense vitamin D supplementation was another
missed opportunity. Data from Spain showed dramatic differences in
Covid-19 mortality based on vitamin D levels, yet the medical
authorities only recommended minimal dosages that were grossly
insufficient for immunological benefit. According to Dr. Dalgleish, our
advisory committees were stacked with “useful idiots” rather than
experts; this was to ensure that inertia and groupthink would prevail
over innovation and sound clinical evidence. There was a deliberate
disregard for safer alternatives and the suppression of dissent can only
be described as criminal incompetence.
In
the face of a global crisis like COVID-19, one would expect the finest
traditions of science, defined by healthy skepticism, transparency, and
open inquiry, to rise to the forefront. Instead, the world witnessed the
systematic erosion of these values being replaced by a culture of a
fundamentalist dogma, censorship, and blind allegiance to authority.
Many physicians and scientists, like Dr. Dalgleish, with decades of
medical research and clinical experience, watched in horror as genuine
medicine was discarded in favor of a rigid narrative. Nowhere is this
more exemplified than in the actions of prominent healthcare bureaucrats
like Dr. Anthony Fauci whose influence not only misdirected public
health policy but caused irreparable harm.
One
of the earliest red flags was the concerted effort to dismiss the
lab-origin theory of SARS-CoV-2. Despite overwhelming indications that
the virus had been artificially manipulated, including the presence of
six engineered inserts around the receptor binding domain, the dominant
narrative clung to the notion of a natural bat spillover. Two of these
inserts were previously documented in publications from the Wuhan
Institute of Virology. Dalgleish and Sørensen examined the molecular
structure of the virus and found highly unnatural clusters of positively
charged amino acids designed to facilitate human cell entry. These
modifications function like magnets that dramatically increase
infectivity. If the virus had a natural origin, it would have been an
evolutionary leap that is implausible without deliberate engineering.
Despite
such clear evidence, the scientific community controlled by the CDC and
the British Royal Society refused to even examine the sequence data. As
author Matt Ridley later confirmed during his own investigation for the
book Viral, not only was there no evidence for zoonotic
transmission, there was active resistance to explore the lab-origin
hypotheses. This deliberate refusal to engage with evidence represents
one of the darkest betrayals of scientific integrity in modern medical
history.
Dr.
Dalgleish speaks of his personal interactions with Anthony Fauci during
the early years of the HIV crisis and his habit of obfuscating
scientific evidence that challenge his personal narratives. He was
struck by Fauci’s superficial understanding of viral pathogenesis. In
critical discussions about how HIV caused disease, Fauci demonstrated a
fundamental lack of comprehension. Moreover, he believes that Fauci’s
incompetence was not just scientific but also ethical. Whether driven by
ideology, personal gain, or a larger agenda, Fauci’s decisions defied
both reason and responsibility. Fauci has long cloaked himself in the
mantle of scientific authority yet his record, especially during the
COVID-19 response, reveals a trail of incompetence, misjudgment, and
potentially deliberate malfeasance.
The revelations in Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s The Real Anthony Fauci
confirm Dr. Dalgleish’s suspicions. Fauci’s career is best
characterized as an irresponsible alignment with pharmaceutical
financial interests. Kennedy meticulously documents Fauci’s involvement
in gain-of-function research and his suppression of safer treatment
options like ivermectin. The claim that it was merely a “horse dewormer”
was a calculated act of propaganda. The truth is that if drugs like
ivermectin, hydroxychloroquine, and mega-Vitamin C and Vitamin D
supplementation had been supported instead of sabotaged, there may have
been no need for mass deployment of experimental gene therapies
masquerading as vaccines.
In
the past, we have reported extensively that the suppression of
alternative therapies cleared the way for mRNA vaccines to dominate the
government’s response strategy. Fauci’s role in this cannot be
overstated. Under emergency authorizations, the mRNA vaccines were
rushed into the arms of hundreds of millions, perhaps billions,
including healthy populations at very low risk from COVID-19.
Another
illustrative example is Fauci negligence is the NIAID’s misuse of the
PCR test. The late Dr. Kary Mullis, the Nobel laureate inventor of PCR
technology, repeatedly warned against using it as a diagnostic tool for
infectious diseases. Mullis frequently stated that his technology was
unsuitable for identifying active viral infections such as HIV. He
emphasized that PCR only detects genetic material, including genetic
debris. Nevertheless, the PCR tests became ubiquitous during the first
two years of the pandemic. Threshold settings of 35-40 cycles, and
sometimes higher, guaranteed massive numbers of false positives. Yet
Fauci’s agency relied on inflated testing thresholds in order to justify
draconian lockdowns, vaccine mandates, and again to stoke public fear
with junk data devoid of any reliable scientific rigor.
The
real scandal, however, lies in the global regulatory response. In
Australia, for example, the Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA), the
equivalent to the FDA and British MHRA, claimed due diligence to approve
the mRNA vaccine. However, it was discovered through Senate inquiries
that they had outsourced the actual safety studies. No genotoxicity or
carcinogenicity tests were ever performed. Like the FDA, the TGA relied
on data submitted by Pfizer and Moderna who had obvious conflicts of
interest. In fact, it was only due to an American court order that the
Pfizer trial data were released; initially our federal health
authorities intended to keep Pfizer’s data sealed for 75 years. If
science were truly guiding policy, why would evidence be hidden? The
reason is glaringly certain. Buried within Pfizer’s own trial documents
were over 1,000 documented side effects, including autoimmune disorders,
microvascular clotting, neurological degeneration and obstetric
complications such as miscarriage. These are the documented findings our
government and Pfizer were determined to keep hidden from the public.
Statistical
analysis of the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS)
database, conducted by medical experts, including those in Dr.
Dalgleish’s advisory circle such as Sir Richard Dearlove, revealed
alarming patterns. If you experienced three or four adverse effects from
the mRNA vaccines, your risk of death rose to over 3 percent. This is
in contrast to the 0.085% risk of dying from COVID-19, which is largely
limited to those over 80 years of age. This is not science. It is the
abandonment of science in favor of an agenda.
Worse still, Fauci’s favored pharmaceutical interventions went beyond vaccines. He
aggressively promoted remdesivir; this was a drug withdrawn during
Ebola clinical trials due to its 53 percent mortality rate. Despite
this, remdesivir became the standard of care for hospitalized COVID-19
patients. In the US, hospitals were reportedly given financial
bonuses for prescribing it. It became known among medical staff as “run
death is near,” a morbid nickname that tragically captures the reality
of its use. The drug was toxic and added more harm than benefit.
Nevertheless, Fauci’s endorsement ensured its widespread distribution.
In
every corner of this pandemic response, real science was buried under a
cascade of deception. Safety signals were ignored. Dissenting doctors
were silenced. The public was manipulated with fear porn. Physicians who
dared to challenge the consensus, such as Drs. Pierre Kory, Paul Marik,
Peter McCullough and Meryl Nass, were vilified, silenced and their
medical licenses were threatened.
Dr. Dalgleish is also the co-authored of the book The Death of Science,
which gives a critical account of the Covid-19 response during the
pandemic. The book’s title captures a defining moment when science, once
a noble pursuit of truth, became a weapon for ideological control. In
retrospect it is the apogee for what should now be properly recognized
as the Anthony Fauci Era in modern medicine: the years between November
1984 and December 2024 when Fauci held the directorship of the National
Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases and scientific medical
integrity eroded research. The Fauci Era marks the time when our federal
health agencies most betrayed basic scientific principles and
drastically swerved off course to morph into a perverted tool to enforce
public conformity. Under Fauci’s technocratic overreach, when questions did arise, they were met not with answers but censorship and coercion.
If
we do not confront the profound lessons of this crisis, we risk
repeating its worst mistakes. There must be a reckoning. Just as the
world once held trials in Nuremberg to confront the horrors of unethical
experimentation and medical complicity, we must now confront the
reality that our modern health systems have been corrupted by power,
profit and ideology. Entrusting global health policy to bureaucrats
promoting unproven technologies and unchecked pharmaceutical interests
has been shown to be a path to systemic abuse. No matter how
credentialed the messenger, no health authority deserves blind
obedience. The future of public health depends on a renewed commitment
to truth, transparency and scientific humility. If we are to rebuild
public trust and ensure that such betrayal is never repeated, we must
pursue justice with the same vigor that once defined the best of
medicine and science. No amnesty. No forgetting. Only accountability.
