The Cult of the Brave New Normal.
In March, it was just a three-week lockdown, to flatten the curve so as not to overwhelm the NHS. The narrative has quickly evolved. It has progressed from what seemed a reasonable idea of keeping NHS bed space free based on the completely false Neil Fergusson prediction that hospitals would be overwhelmed by patients suffering from COVID-19.
This never happened. Many weeks passed where face masks were not needed and then suddenly in July, long after the majority of supposed COVID-19 deaths had occurred, face masks were made compulsory.
Indeed, the UK government advice from the likes of Chris Whitty and the World Health Organisation was that face masks were not effective in stopping the spread of COVID-19 or in contracting it; science does not change that quick – anyone who tells you otherwise is a liar.
The result is that we have now fallen deep into a Covidian Cult, a totalitarian psychotic narrative that has little connection to reality or to the facts.
