Pressure mounts on British health secretary to come clean on vaccine fallout

A bipartisan group of British lawmakers is pressuring Health Secretary Victoria Atkins to prove government claims that there is “no evidence” linking the COVID-19 vaccines to the UK’s rising excess deaths.

British health authorities have been bewildered by an alarming rise in mysterious deaths, leaving researchers and journalists searching for explanations. 

Recently the Office for National Statistics (ONS) reported that compared to the five-year national average, there were 32,000 extra deaths between May and December 2022, excluding deaths from COVID-19. The age range of 15–44 had the greatest cumulative death rate.

Many theories have been proposed, such as the one advanced by UK Chief Medical Officer Chris Whitty who claimed that a decrease in heart medicine prescriptions was the reason behind the deaths — even though no such decrease was discovered. Others tried blaming the deaths on doctors’ strikes, though the British Medical Association disputed this assertion as well. 

But scientific evidence points to the mRNA shots as the likely culprits. A Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) study in 2022 discovered a 25% rise in cardiac events in people under 40 that was directly correlated to the COVID vaccines. In its own study, the State of Florida found an 84% increase in the relative risk of cardiac-related death among men 18 to 39 years old within 28 days of an mRNA shot.

Nevertheless, the British government has maintained that there is no evidence linking the shots to the country’s mysteriously rising death toll.

Now a group of lawmakers from four political parties are pressing Health Secretary Atkins to disclose any data or investigative reports showing a lack of correlation between the vaccines and excess deaths.

“If those data do indeed exist, please share them; if thorough investigations have already ruled out such a link, please share the relevant reports,” says a letter written to Atkins by over 10 MPs last month. “There is no place here for blind faith.”

In addition to MPs, the signatories included British hereditary peers like Earl of Leicester Thomas Coke, Lord Strathcarron, Lord Moylan, and Rt Hon Baroness Foster. The letter was organized by UsforThem, a nonprofit group formed in 2021 to protect children from the British government’s COVID-19 mandates.

“The level of public concern and interest in this topic will not abate, and by resisting the release of pertinent data, and by appearing to discourage a transparent and objective professional assessment of the potential causes of our excess deaths problem, the Government and its agencies will only further sow distrust,” the letter continued. “This matters to us all, because our public health system will fast become impotent if it does not retain the trust and confidence of the public it serves.”

A spokesperson for the UK’s Department of Health and Social Care (DHSC), which Atkins administers, reportedly responded to the letter saying “a wide variety of factors” is likely contributing to the excess deaths.

“We are committed to data transparency and publish a wide range of data on excess mortality. The datasets published are kept under constant review,” said the spokesperson. “A wide variety of factors can contribute to excess mortality each year and we work closely with the [Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency] and [UK Health Services Agency] to analyse significant trends and adjust public health interventions where appropriate.”

The rise in excess deaths comes as the UK also faces its “worst heart care crisis in living memory” which has people dying from early heart and circulatory diseases at the highest rate in over a decade.

Authorities at the UK’s National Health Service (NHS) are flummoxed as to why premature deaths from cardiac events among Brits under 75 — which had been declining for almost sixty years — have been increasing since 2020 in a clear trend reversal.

According to an analysis by the British Heart Foundation (BHF), premature cardiovascular deaths in 2022 reached 80 out of 100,000, the highest rate since 2011. Figures from 2022 show that 39,000 people — around 750 per week — died from heart attacks, strokes, or coronary heart disease.

But doctors are now being inundated with a spate of under-40 heart attack victims and are pointing to stress as the causal factor.
