another "modeller" out of the Imperial College mould
Christina Pagel is a British–German mathematician and professor of operational research at University College London. She is the first female director of the Clinical Operational Research Unit at UCL, which applies operational research, data analysis and mathematical modelling to problems in health care]
What scaremongering has she been up to? Unsurprisingly it's CASES, CASES, CASES. More "testing" ---> more "cases"

Scaremongering July 24 from Pagel - because probably more healthy young people are being duped into being tested
https://twitter.com/chrischirp/status/1 ... 4216849408the UK also finding increasing numbers of young people infected. From PHE report, over half of new cases are between 20 and 50 and almost a fifth are between 20 and 29. Other countries are showing that this is a risk factor for future spikes.
reply - tell students to stay at home, away from all the social life of college or university.....
https://twitter.com/chrischirp/status/1 ... 1728719872latest from COVID in mainland Europe... and further evidence that controlling COVID while reopening everything at ~ 500 cases a day is VERY HARD. We need to be actively driving down cases not crossing our fingers and hoping for the best #Zer
Seems like there is a direct correlation between lockdown and pointless mask wearing and number of cases lol!
Graphic showing the Spanish data of "CASES". Pagel mentions the contradiction that Spain has perhaps the most repressive Covid restrictions in Europe. Perhaps it's due to more "testing". Or falsified figures for the mathemeticians to work on.
Then Pagel asks
https://twitter.com/chrischirp/status/1 ... 4393953280Have cases gone up only because there have been more people tested? (a GOOD thing) Or have cases gone up because of increased COVID transmission? (a BAD thing). Next two weeks should make that clear
Another graph... the police state "test and trace", of which Pagel seems a keen advocate.
Looks like she's recommended another shutdown...all based on the phoney testing, and the absurd goal of "zero Covid" when we don't even know what is being tested.... there's no way out.
[suuuure blame the faked rise in "cases" on letting us out of our houses.And Israel, Australia & Japan all struggling to contain new outbreaks after periods of control. Outbreaks linked to super-spreader settings (bars, factories, parties), young people spreading it unknowingly, lack of masks & social distancing.......
Zero Covid my arse. Looks like the script for continuation for the foreseeable future is written.Even after months of control like things can escalate quickly. UK at a crunch point - how much work is govt prepared to do to control it? Last week's rise in cases signals time for caution. V worried that we are still opening gyms etc tomorrow and back to work week after.....
NI & Scotland now formally pursuing #ZeroCOVID and NI working with Rep of Ireland to do so. England & Wales should join them!
Notice too how Independent SAGE [full of psychologists] is recommending more "public messaging" re masks and "distancing" - i.e. more propaganda. Notice too the ominous threat of non-"zero" Covid implies future "lockdowns". We can see where this is leading - what might yield "zero covid"? Begins with V...
