Story at-a-glance –
Pandemics ~ Data & Analytics (PANDA), co-founded by Nick Hudson, is using live data and open science to empower the public to exercise freedom of choice and preserve free societies
Hudson explains the ugly truth about COVID-19, which is that the world is being needlessly crippled by fear due to a false narrative
The pandemic response has created “homosapienophobia” — the idea that everyone is dangerous until proven healthy
Data compiled by PANDA found no relationship between lockdowns and COVID-19 deaths per million people; the disease followed a trajectory of linear decline regardless of whether or not lockdowns were imposed
With looming vaccine passports, the loss of personal liberties is at an unprecedented level, while people are generally living “enslaved by fear” — fear of infection or reinfection, “long COVID,” resurgence and mutant variants
Bringing COVID-19 Truth to Light
George Washington famously said, “Truth will ultimately prevail where there are plans taken to bring it to light.”3 With that in mind, Hudson saw the “seeds of a great tragedy” being planted with the false COVID-19 narrative, and has made it a mission to get the truth out. So, what is the reality about the pandemic? According to Hudson:4
A virus that presents high risk to few and negligible risk to most hit some regions
Few are susceptible to severe disease
There are several available treatments
Asymptomatic people are not major drivers of disease
Lockdowns and mask mandates haven’t worked and instead caused great harm
The vulnerable were hurt instead of helped
The misinformation has been spewed from the beginning, including by World Health Organization director-general Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus. In a March 3, 2020, media briefing, he stated, “Globally, about 3.4% of reported COVID-19 cases have died. By comparison, seasonal flu generally kills far fewer than 1% of those infected.”5
But according to Hudson, the 3.4% represents case fatality rate (CFR), which is the number of deaths from COVID-19 divided by the number of cases of COVID-19, while the 1% is infection fatality rate (IFR), or the number of deaths divided by all infected individuals.
