chevron_right
Prof. Sunetra Gupta, a leading theoretical epidemiologist from Oxford and co-author of the Great Barrington Declaration, critiques the UK COVID inquiry, calling its conclusions an "insult" to public intelligence. She questions the validity of modelling that suggests lockdowns saved lives, highlights the ignored evidence from Sweden, and argues for a focus on alternative explanations like herd immunity. Gupta emphasizes the ethical costs of lockdowns and champions a focused protection approach for the vulnerable, urging scientists to consider broader societal impacts in their advice.
