My father designed the original finger pricker as an engineer working at the Medical Research Council at Oxford University in the early 80s. He then went on to design the first diabetic pen (now known as the EpiPen). Very proud of his achievements.
He's perfect for when I'm cooking my tea (I'm a brit living in San Diego so I catch up about 6h behind). As a scientist I truly appreciate his ability to explain stuff easily.
I just want to say a massive thank you to John. It's been around 12 months since you started giving us all this useful information. Day after day. Your dedication and hard work is appreciated much more than you can imagine. I don't know how many lives you have saved during this awful time, but I'm sure it's thousands, mine included. So thanks again, God bless you and keep up the good work. X
Yes he is great sue double up on your fluid resistant mask when out try listerine total care mouthwash after being out every bit of advice helps pass on to freinds family please best wishes from Glasgow scotland
I'm 60 and 3 years ago I had a physical. When I was about to leave, my Dr. asked how long my legs have been hurting. I was surprised because I had not told him anything about it. I chalked it up to getting older. I said how did you know? He said my vitD was almost depleted an I had to be feeling it in my legs. My wife and I strted taking a supplement. So thankful to my Dr. Who knew?
@@virginian7317 he is so wrong! The national guidelines state everyone should be taking vitamin D for at least 6m of the year. Your vitamin D level WILL be low and will require a supplement.
It’s a total pleasure to listen to Dr John every day. Love the way he explains everything, and proves that his teaching abilities are second to none. Thank you Dr John, you are a treasure!
Why didn't he want to talk about React study 2, because the study showed that less than 5% chance of getting reinfected after they recovered from the virus so natural infection is beter than the vaccine, here read. Methods: All SARS-CoV-2 laboratory-confirmed cases with at least one PCR positive swab that is ≥45 days after a first-positive swab were individually investigated for evidence of reinfection, and classified as showing strong, good, some, or weak/no evidence for reinfection. Viral genome sequencing of the paired first-positive and reinfection viral specimens was conducted to confirm reinfection. Risk and incidence rate of reinfection were estimated. Results: Out of 133,266 laboratory-confirmed SARS-CoV-2 cases, 243 persons (0.18%) had at least one subsequent positive swab ≥45 days after the first-positive swab. Of these, 54 cases (22.2%) had strong or good evidence for reinfection. Median time between first and reinfection swab was 64.5 days (range: 45-129). Twenty-three of the 54 cases (42.6%) were diagnosed at a health facility suggesting presence of symptoms, while 31 (57.4%) were identified incidentally through random testing campaigns/surveys or contact tracing. Only one person was hospitalized at time of reinfection, but was discharged the next day. No deaths were recorded. Viral genome sequencing confirmed four reinfections out of 12 cases with available genetic evidence. Reinfection risk was estimated at 0.02% (95% CI: 0.01-0.02%) and reinfection incidence rate at 0.36 (95% CI: 0.28-0.47) per 10,000 person-weeks. Conclusions: SARS-CoV-2 reinfection can occur but is a rare phenomenon suggestive of protective immunity against reinfection that lasts for at least a few months post primary infection.
@@CaroleMinxBlanton Well i think is that is proves natural infection and recovery offers better immunity than the vaccines and thats why he choose to talk about React 1 study.
Dear Dr Campbell. I did a quiz about Corona virus in one of our evening newspapers in Sweden, The quiz was made by Professor Agnes Wold of Clinical Bacteriology. I scored 11 of 12 thanks to you Dr Campbell!
@@sniperpd9505 Hi Mr/Ms/Mrs Sniper!!! It's not good in Sweden at the moment. Fortunately we are seeing a slight decrease in cases. I'm working from home since 10 month, so Sweden actually has a kind of lockdown. On vaccination we are just as slow as the rest of EU. The cut backs from Pfizer and AstraZeneca will of course hit us as well. Some elderly have now gotten their vaccination. We are starting with the most vulnerable + medical staff. PS Does the number 338 mean anything to you?
You always look your best Dr. John!! Thank you so much for all of your research, hard work, and steadfastness to keep us all informed!! It’s been over a year since I’ve been watching daily like many others here and it truly helps to keep the peace amidst all the misinformation and chaos. THANK YOU! 🙏 🙏🙏
Sir John Campbell. I have been following you since January 2020. You have directly saved most of my huge extended family from serious Covid-19 infection. And even possibly death. And those dear close friends of mine. I don't need to say anything else. Thank you. 🤦🏾♀️👌🏾👏🏾👧🏾🌹

Well, with the degree of media editing (3 simultaneous cameras seamlessly cut together - looks quite professional instead of single person at home if you asked me... ) perhaps using a computer screen and saving the trees would be better?
I've learned quite a bit from Dr. Campbell since I started watching the show. To say he is a brilliant man is an understatement. One thing I definitely learned was how the British give out their phone numbers: "Yeah, yeah.... My cloud number in the states is THREE, NAUGHT, THREE... FIVE, SIX, NAUGHT... SEVEN, NAUGHT, NINE, NAUGHT." 😂

@Robert Caskie I have noticed he doesn't make a big stink about "Click the subscribe button below so the TH-cam algorithm blah blah.... and make sure to hit the bell icon blah blah" I mean maybe he's said it on some videos, I haven't seen him say it yet, I'm not saying it's good or bad I'm just pointing it out. I think his subscribers know that he's worth subscribing to, they don't need the "push" or sales pitch.
Thank you Doctor for the updates, you are helping me, my friends nearest to me, and properly informing my family on the other end of the country. You're so deeply appreciated.
@@bszlado3703 Thanks for pointing out how big the world is, very informative... But why bother to look around when you can show by example how to properly communicate the otherwise seemingly obvious?
@@l-Jeremy Apologies, I meant the big world in the context of information around this topic; eg. what I also posted about the current WHO guidelines, which practically invalidates this "proper" information..
@@bszlado3703 It's proper information in that it's harder to be misinformed and worse, of course, disinformed when he is speaking. Not a true-all single source to rely upon, that is dangerous territory and not a subscriber personally, that's just stupid. I'm able to interpret the new information, not as an expert, but as anyone that needs to be able to understand what is going on objectively. I believe and have trusted Dr. Campbell's analysis OVERTIME. He is a perfect example as a supporting source for the overall argument to be made. Every source that makes an objective argument, supported by facts and verifiable data, and results in otherwise dissimilar conclusions, is a source I hold onto. if you link your source regarding WHO, you take that step to show your credibility in opposition and would consider it. Simply saying something to pose an argument, simply can't work anymore, there is just too much information in the world.

It's shocking that only now we got to the point that a cycle threshold value should be provided with a positive results, to indicate how likely one is infectious or not... I am pretty sure it is still not being done, and Dr. Campbell's presented study refers still to cases with any PCR positive results, which is why it is completely unreliable and likely very misleading data.... Even the inventor of the PCR test has said many times that this is a research and not diagnostic tool..

Thank you for your work and keeping us updated...basically hunker down till summer in the US is what I got out of this :( so disheartening like we cant catch a break.
Other reasons for this wave lasting longer could be when the first wave peaked we were just entering summer, and another reason that may affect things is the second wave has hit after the population has had the best part of a year of being locked down and their for have less robust health.
I have a better, third reason. SAGE response to the pandemic bellow, page 6. assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/887467/25-options-for-increasing-adherence-to-social-distancing-measures-22032020.pdf
Casedemic with PCR tests being horribly inaccurate. Death rates indicate normal death rates for cancers ,alzheimers etc is way down. People going to die get in on hospital or have it on them and are picked up by tests even though not the real killer.
@@tim40gabby25 I'm just sitting here and checking the VAERs reports daily on the CDC website.. very interesting.. so far 182 covid vaccine deaths and thousands of serious adverse events including Bell's Palsy and seizure disorders. Yikes, I think I'm going to wait to see how effective these shots are turning out to be. Israel has vaccinated 43% of their population and yesterday had a case count of 8,000 in a population of 9 million.🤔
Interestingly, Bangladesh, population 165 million had 528 cases and 17 deaths yesterday. Well isn't that interesting? What are they doing? They're using ivermectin. Something strange afoot... 😉💉💉💰💰💰💰💰💰☠️🤫
I heard anecdotally that, from TH-cam's perspective, down-votes are as good as up-votes since they both indicate engagement. The Down-voters may actually be helping elevate Dr. Campbell's profile.
Unfortunately the blood sample was put in the wrong chamber, John. The blood goes in the Square chamber above the one the lady put her sample in. The round chamber is for the buffer fluid. I only put this comment on, so everyone doesn't copy this method. Regards
There must be something else to this. Both Zoe and government testing indicates a huge decline in cases over the same timeframe (25% reduction or more per week). Could it be that the new variant is both more transmissible, but also less likely to cause symptoms?
One thing that I have noticed in the first minute of the video where Dr. Campbell pointed out that the 1st reaction was a survey looking at virus pathogen prevalence in humans and therefore the amount of disease. Now correct me if I am wrong but even if there is a specific amount of coronavirus pathogen within the body it can not be assumed that a person has a disease. As far as I know for such diagnosis there should be a specific measure which I think is yet not established or in more traditional ways it should be determined by a medical doctor if someone is sick. Just having virus pathogens in the body does not mean that you can be diagnosed with the disease . Could someone elaborate on this please?
The REACT test video has a mistake in it at about 26:55. Do not use it as a tutorial! The drop of blood should go in the middle S sample well and not the bottom B buffer well.

Good news in my area of UK, we're now going above government recommendations. Most people wear their masks on the pavement & are maintaining distance on the pavement by using drives as pedestrian passing bays. Although suburbia there's a strong community spirit. The short encouraging chat across the main road, a simple "How are you & your family?" does a lot to keep spirits up.
Ruth Cares, yea breathing in your own waste while OUTSIDE! sounds like a great idea, I'd recommend that if I didn't have brain cells, sensible ...double plus good
I'm so glad Dr John mentioned the schools. MPs keep waffling about schools being closed and they are anything but. My wife has a class of 20 and her school is at 60% occupancy. It's been like this since last March.
Our daughter’s school too.. she’s a primary teacher. She has to have 2 tests per week .. her nose is getting sore. I think most of the public think schools are closed ....

You can say that again! He was totally ignored in Parliament with Jo Churchill claiming there is not enough evidence and that more trials are needed! It is cheap and safe but she would rather allow people to die until the trial is concluded in the spring. I hope that she is called to account for her advice once the trials prove it's effectiveness. Or maybe they are not giving sufficient doses on the trial.

What about an update on Ivermectin John? i see the US has now allowed it to be used at the Dr's discretion - a massive move in favour of its use from being banned other than for medical trials. Would it help here?
He has already called on the authorities to look seriously at it. Unless and until NICE approve it there's not much more he can do. It cannot be prescribed without authorisation from NICE.
Dr discretion is based on Mds employers protocols. Mds do not have the discretion you suggest. Yesterday my dr., Part of well known university health care refused my request for ivermectin use should I need it with active covid/care
@@YvonneWilson312 The Ivermectin is much too simple of a solution and it’s $5/pill which goes against Big Pharma’s religion. They would rather have everyone get the jab- it would be a shame to let all those billions go to waste, without reaching their goal- to enslave us with getting that “ self-replicating biometric tracking nano gel,” into each and every one of us, subjects. It would be a pity to disappoint Bill Gates of Hell and Nazi Fauci, wouldn’t it?
@@janisherwood6101 Did you have to work on that word salad or are these the first words on your retinas when that lonely synapse in your cranium briefly fired?
Could I just point out John the blood should go in the square shaped well marked S and the buffer liquid goes in the circular well marked B. I did this myself last night. I dont know if it would make any difference to the overall out come of the test but thought it may do and was worth pointing out. Might I add I watch your videos every night and really enjoy the information you provide I myself have increased my dose of Vit D to 3000 a day and all my family.
when i watched the video, I worried I had done mine wrong as my blood sample went in the square shaped well marked ‘s’ and the buffer liquid in the circular well ‘b’
@@deb.b3504 I thought I'd done mine wrong when I looked at video! Confusing really as the round hole would be easier to put your finger on and B might be confused with blood not buffer! Manufacturers need to make this clearer x
Am wondering if it world be worth me getting an antigen test... I had a 'cold' (fever, cough, malaise, etc.) in March and was looking at my pulse with the oximeter... and noticed my O2 was 84 (normally 98). Ended up using my spirometer, my inhaler, and emergency inhaler to get it up above 90. The interesting thing was that when it was 84 I didn't notice any shortness of breath. Knowing what I do now am wondering if I've already had it.
Everyone I ask about their Vitamin D intake just looks blank and says “isn’t it multivitamins”? Yes, 400 IU usually, virtually everyone should be taking ten times that. I don’t understand why progressive countries don’t increase the recommended amount, then multi-Vitamin producers would have to increase it.
Hi Doc. Found you a few weeks ago and glad I did. Straight forward explainations for us plebs... The more I hear and look into the Brazil variant, the more it scares me. Any thoughts? Myself and my family all had covid way back last year in March 2020. Seems a long time ago.

Thanks, Dr. Campbell for your section on the Ipsos Mori January Covid antigen survey. I was randomly selected to take part and was very impressed by the professionalism of the whole procedure. It was good to see the actual results.
I took part in the antigen study being talked about here (in mid November), my youngest son took part in mid January and my husband did the antibody test two days ago. Both tests were easy to do - step by step instructions were included. I urge anyone asked to do these tests to do so.
@@daverok1113 Because the more data they can collect the more accurate picture they can get and this may save lives if more measures are needed or help the economy if tests show it is safe to ease lockdown.
@@MarcosElMalo2 I did wonder but I thought he could just be very scientifically uneducated and some more info may stop him being someone who is stupid enough to believe the misinformation.
it might not be effective at preventing infection but it is still 100% protective against hospitalisation. What this mean is; if Efficacy is low, say below 70%, then government cannot reach "herd immunity", even if 100% of population got the vaccine... this is bad news for government, meaning they cannot end Covid-19.
The Germans are blaming the EU commission for penny-pinching when it came to investing in vaccines whilst pouring massive amounts of money into the economic recovery fund. (2,7 bn versus 750 bn) The whole pandemic has been misjudged by the EU, too few vaccines were ordered too late and there seems to have been unrelenting bargaining for the lowest possible prices, as confirmed by the German CEO of Biontech. Also, the contract with Astra Zeneca has been poorly worded and does not give any guarantees as to a specific time-schedule within which delivery has to take place. Van der Leyen used to be German Minister for Defence and failed to have the army supplied with sufficient equipment of acceptable standard, so many Germans say she should never have been put in charge of procuring vaccines. They also say that the protection of health and welfare of citizens is a national task by law and should not have been delegated to the EU. They want to see someone take responsibility for this disaster and so far everyone has been putting the blame on someone else. Some Germans say the UK are reaping the first benefits from leaving the EU and the Germans ought to follow. Most Germans would rather have the Biontech Pfizer vaccine as it seems to have a very high efficacy, some even say they would decline the Astra Zeneca if they were offered it. So far, the greatest disappointment has been that Biontech Pfizer was developed in Germany, received considerable state subsidies, is being produced in Belgium (apart from the US) and from there it is being exported to the rest of the world, like Israel and UK - and whilst young people in Israel are already being vaccinated, the group of the >80 in Germany will not have been completely vaccinated until the beginning of April because there is a shortage of vaccine. Germans also suspect that France vetoed a larger order from PfizerBiontech because they wanted to support their own Sanofi, whose vaccine development has failed, and the EU was also ordering from Curevac, which is a German company. So, in short, Germans are angry at EU politicians because of incompetence and lack of judgement, foresight or transparency.
@@xponen Herd will come, it always does. The question is:- Do a few million people die because we make and take a vaccine or do 100 million die, like in 1918 when we were not able to make AND use a vaccine. If 100% of vaccinated people contract Covid, they recover, become "immune" and mostly without hospitalization. In other news Covid can never be eradicated, it will be like the virus that caused the 1918 pandemic, now called the H1N1 virus, just become a normal virus in our environment. It is the "novo" ("new") part that is deadly to the general adult population.
Why didn't he want to talk about React study 2, because the study showed that less than 5% chance of getting reinfected after they recovered from the virus so natural infection is beter than the vaccine, here read. Methods: All SARS-CoV-2 laboratory-confirmed cases with at least one PCR positive swab that is ≥45 days after a first-positive swab were individually investigated for evidence of reinfection, and classified as showing strong, good, some, or weak/no evidence for reinfection. Viral genome sequencing of the paired first-positive and reinfection viral specimens was conducted to confirm reinfection. Risk and incidence rate of reinfection were estimated. Results: Out of 133,266 laboratory-confirmed SARS-CoV-2 cases, 243 persons (0.18%) had at least one subsequent positive swab ≥45 days after the first-positive swab. Of these, 54 cases (22.2%) had strong or good evidence for reinfection. Median time between first and reinfection swab was 64.5 days (range: 45-129). Twenty-three of the 54 cases (42.6%) were diagnosed at a health facility suggesting presence of symptoms, while 31 (57.4%) were identified incidentally through random testing campaigns/surveys or contact tracing. Only one person was hospitalized at time of reinfection, but was discharged the next day. No deaths were recorded. Viral genome sequencing confirmed four reinfections out of 12 cases with available genetic evidence. Reinfection risk was estimated at 0.02% (95% CI: 0.01-0.02%) and reinfection incidence rate at 0.36 (95% CI: 0.28-0.47) per 10,000 person-weeks. Conclusions: SARS-CoV-2 reinfection can occur but is a rare phenomenon suggestive of protective immunity against reinfection that lasts for at least a few months post primary infection.
@@tomjohnson4681 I think you'll find that Dr Campbell has said, on several occasions, that the signs are good that immunity after infection is long lasting
Thanks again for another information-packed update Dr. Campbell. Amazing to see what they are doing in the UK. I don't believe anything like this is being done in Canada.
Just a hypothesis, but isn't there more working class black people in the densely populated inner city areas, whereas there is more working class white people in the deindustrialised north, Wales and Scotland where people tend to live in terraces/semi-detached and detached houses as opposed to the tower blocks and apartments in the inner city areas. So yes income plays a role but so does population density. If one has to go up a lift to get to the 10th floor then you'd pretty much have to share that unventilated lift with everyone else in the tower block.
Can we get information re the AZ vaccine in the over 65’s. Germany has suggested it is not given to this group, as it is untested for its efficacy. Interesting to find out how it is doing in the UK in this group...
This view is disputed by UK scientists advising our Gov't. Check out reports on the BBC. And my understanding is that over 65's were included in AZ 's clinical trials and they showed good immune response.
@@londoncalling8121 the problem is that very few people over 65 were recruited for the AstraZeneca trial, and also recruited later in the trials. the UK scientists know that and are assuming the response will be the same as in younger people. The German scientists prefer not to assume and do not think there is enough information behind the efficacy to the over 65 group.
@@albertamezzacapo4457 I don't know the deets, but I'd find it strange if this is the whole picture. It wouldn't make sense when this cohort are at highest risk and the EU sure seems keen to get their mitts on the AZ vaccine nonetheless. As John would rightly say, always check the evidence from reliable sources, which I haven't done in this case.
It was a nice gesture but maybe John was embarrassed that he was sent shirts as he seemed to thing he must have looked scruffy. Although I loved the blue check he had on I think it was yesterday or the day before.
The rumour is that it is ineffective on the over 65s ,and the Germans are being prudent with a limited supply .Use it where it gives benefit rather than as part of a propaganda campaign.?
Just double check where the blood sample goes - I did mine the other day and I'm sure it went in the second port marked S - a lot of others on here have commented thats how they did it too so the video could be the wrong or right way! Not sure how much difference it makes
Love the soft toy on your window sill noticed he has a different face mask on everyday . I d9nt watch the news on TV I wait for your daily update you say it how it is thx
The infection rate has dropped from 64.000 to 28.000 in the last 26 days. That's a dramatic drop in cases in my opinion. 6 Million people in the UK have been vaccinated now so that should play a dramatic part in the infection rate and deaths drop.

I’m shocked you’ve shared this data from the react study after it being discredited by kings college London. The react group didn’t gather data during December when the cases were high meaning they skipped from November to January missing vital data.
I'm not surprised.. he last discussed ivermectin in early December based on one study done in October when there were a total of 30 studies available. Now there are 53. Bangladesh, population 165 million, is using ivermectin.. yesterday they had a total of 17 deaths.
Is quite clear that John is counting PCR or LF positives as actual infections when neither are particularly accurate. The way out of this manufactured self destructive stalemate is to stop testing the general public unless they are unwell The vulnerable could be tested for vitamin D3 and Zinc deficiency since most who ended up with Covid were deficient in these things. HCQ, ZN, IVM could be used to treat actual infections and blood thinners to stop clotting Different stages require different treatment, manufacturers of the experimental vaccines state they may only reduce symptoms they are not a cure, not safe and don't stop infection nor transmission. I fail to see the logic of mass screening or vaxxing of healthy people on an industrial scale WHO say those in pregnancy should not have the vaccine and by contrast the CDC say the opposite, EXPERTS now say over 65s should not be vaxxed perhaps due to the 31 unnecessary vaccine deaths in Norway, in any case safety aside, vaccines are most generally inefficacious in the over 65s, quite clearly with experimental substances it takes years to learn about safety, effectiveness etc Where is the logic in jabbing the pregnant, the elderly, infirm and little children with these experimental unnecessary vaccines? Please, If minded to respond polite answers only this is serious deadly serious.
Also why did he pick react1 study instead react2 , which talks about reinfections and shows that reinfections after natural infection is less than 5% which means it's better than those so called vaccines.
Not had proper internet for a while and not been able to watch him as much. Soo glad to have my daily update. All those conspiracy theorists are so terrified of him.
OOPS! Test video: Blood should have been in the smaller square hole marked 'S', the reagent (?) goes in the lower circular one. (Just so that others don't copy this and make the same mistake -- I don't know but can only guess this may make the test less sensitive...)
We are all worried about whether the vaccines will work against the new variants. But is there a risk that treatments may not work as well on these variants?
I don't know how much time you have, but this online lecture talks about the way mRNA vaccines have been developed and how the genome of the virus has changed over the course of this pandemic. One of the things he noted was that there is a large selective pressure for the virus to mutate in such a way that the treatment (namely monoclonal antibodies) is less effective and thus the virus can outcompete other SARS CoV 2 viruses in the host's body. th-cam.com/video/3RhRfaZV4l0/w-d-xo.html

Just watched your presentation 28th Jan 2021, which I am extremely grateful for. Your information and delivery seems to be the only way I can get honest and true information on the progress of the pandemic. There is one thing however I feel I need to point out. The video that was kindly sent to you demonstrating how to do the test for antibodies, was incorrect. The sample of blood should have been put in the square receptacle of the tester and not in the bottom circular receptacle. As I have also taken part in this survey, it is clearly shown in the instruction booklet. This is not to criticise but to insure other viewers don't make a similar mistake when doing the test. Keep up the good work. Kind Regards

It's not good in Sweden at the moment. Fortunately we are seeing a slight decrease in cases. I'm working from home since 10 month, so Sweden actually has a kind of lockdown.

"Where test results do not correspond with the clinical presentation, a new specimen should be taken and retested using the same or different NAT technology". ie, positive PCR test without clinical signs ("asympmtomatic") needs further testing to be a 'case'
"Provide the Ct value in the report to the requesting health care provider." - this is critical, as current practice is to use 40-45 cycles, which is WAY too much, and give lots of false positives (any small fragments of the virus will be amplified to be an infection.

If you check out Fig 1 in this study, it's very obvious how the cycle threshold links to the possibility of actually isolating/culturing a virus. It's shocking that only now we got to the point that a cycle threshold value should be provided with a positive results, to indicate how likely one is infectious or not... I am pretty sure it is still not being done, and Dr. Campbell's presented study refers still to cases with any PCR positive results, which is why it is completely unreliable and likely very misleading data.... Even the inventor of the PCR test has said many times that this is a research and not diagnostic tool..

Thank you for your work and keeping us updated...basically hunker down till summer in the US is what I got out of this :( so disheartening like we cant catch a break.
actually, you can break free --- Be apart of the movement and take ivermectin and then walk free.
Hi Dr. Campbell thank you again for the update .Please be safe always.
Other reasons for this wave lasting longer could be when the first wave peaked we were just entering summer, and another reason that may affect things is the second wave has hit after the population has had the best part of a year of being locked down and their for have less robust health.
I’ll second that 👍☮️

Death rates indicate normal death rates for cancers ,alzheimers etc is way down.

I'm just sitting here and checking the VAERs reports daily on the CDC website.. very interesting.. so far 182 covid vaccine deaths and thousands of serious adverse events including Bell's Palsy and seizure disorders.
Yikes, I think I'm going to wait to see how effective these shots are turning out to be. Israel has vaccinated 43% of their population and yesterday had a case count of 8,000 in a population of 9 million.🤔
Interestingly, Bangladesh, population 165 million had 528 cases and 17 deaths yesterday. Well isn't that interesting? What are they doing? They're using ivermectin.

I heard anecdotally that, from TH-cam's perspective, down-votes are as good as up-votes since they both indicate engagement.
The Down-voters may actually be helping elevate Dr. Campbell's profile.
@David WP This is the very same doctor who has, apparently, been making 'misleading' comments regarding the virus. So I'll stick with John Campbell
Unfortunately the blood sample was put in the wrong chamber, John. The blood goes in the Square chamber above the one the lady put her sample in. The round chamber is for the buffer fluid. I only put this comment on, so everyone doesn't copy this method. Regards
Well spotted
@@daverok1113 I have only just done the test last night, so, I double-checked the booklet. In case I did it wrong.
This should be pinned??..
Yes... Christine put the blood in the wrong chamber..... maybe thats why it gave that particular result
Thanks for pointing this out Lisa. I also noticed the error as I did the antibody test last night. Hopefully John will see these comments
I think we should all have a spot of tea and chat with the good doctor, after the pandemic
Here here! Wait. I would have to fly.....from the USA.
I think a shot (or 6) of your favourite spirits raised in recognition would be more appropriate. Celebration.
@Kate 👍
Wouldnt it be great to meet The Doc. in real life once this nightmare is over . I would definitely buy him a dinner, or at least a cup of tea.!
I am 65 and had a mild virus as I was high in vitamin D, thanks to you Dr John.
There must be something else to this. Both Zoe and government testing indicates a huge decline in cases over the same timeframe (25% reduction or more per week). Could it be that the new variant is both more transmissible, but also less likely to cause symptoms?
Thank you Dr. John!!! You are so much help!!! From North Carolina, USA.
you are most welcome on my screen
😊😊😊
You are most Welcome too Doc :)
Most welcome to what?
One thing that I have noticed in the first minute of the video where Dr. Campbell pointed out that the 1st reaction was a survey looking at virus pathogen prevalence in humans and therefore the amount of disease. Now correct me if I am wrong but even if there is a specific amount of coronavirus pathogen within the body it can not be assumed that a person has a disease. As far as I know for such diagnosis there should be a specific measure which I think is yet not established or in more traditional ways it should be determined by a medical doctor if someone is sick. Just having virus pathogens in the body does not mean that you can be diagnosed with the disease . Could someone elaborate on this please?
The REACT test video has a mistake in it at about 26:55. Do not use it as a tutorial! The drop of blood should go in the middle S sample well and not the bottom B buffer well.
Rob is correct. I also noticed this error.
I look forward to these videos. Thank you,

Good news in my area of UK, we're now going above government recommendations. Most people wear their masks on the pavement & are maintaining distance on the pavement by using drives as pedestrian passing bays. Although suburbia there's a strong community spirit. The short encouraging chat across the main road, a simple "How are you & your family?" does a lot to keep spirits up.
Being honest, outside isn't the issue.

You can say that again!
He was totally ignored in Parliament with Jo Churchill claiming there is not enough evidence and that more trials are needed!
It is cheap and safe but she would rather allow people to die until the trial is concluded in the spring.
I hope that she is called to account for her advice once the trials prove it's effectiveness.
Or maybe they are not giving sufficient doses on the trial.
Why didn't he want to talk about React study 2, because the study showed that less than 5% chance of getting reinfected after they recovered from the virus so natural infection is beter than the vaccine, here read.
Methods: All SARS-CoV-2 laboratory-confirmed cases with at least one PCR positive swab that is ≥45 days after a first-positive swab were individually investigated for evidence of reinfection, and classified as showing strong, good, some, or weak/no evidence for reinfection. Viral genome sequencing of the paired first-positive and reinfection viral specimens was conducted to confirm reinfection. Risk and incidence rate of reinfection were estimated.
Results: Out of 133,266 laboratory-confirmed SARS-CoV-2 cases, 243 persons (0.18%) had at least one subsequent positive swab ≥45 days after the first-positive swab. Of these, 54 cases (22.2%) had strong or good evidence for reinfection. Median time between first and reinfection swab was 64.5 days (range: 45-129). Twenty-three of the 54 cases (42.6%) were diagnosed at a health facility suggesting presence of symptoms, while 31 (57.4%) were identified incidentally through random testing campaigns/surveys or contact tracing. Only one person was hospitalized at time of reinfection, but was discharged the next day. No deaths were recorded. Viral genome sequencing confirmed four reinfections out of 12 cases with available genetic evidence. Reinfection risk was estimated at 0.02% (95% CI: 0.01-0.02%) and reinfection incidence rate at 0.36 (95% CI: 0.28-0.47) per 10,000 person-weeks.
Conclusions: SARS-CoV-2 reinfection can occur but is a rare phenomenon suggestive of protective immunity against reinfection that lasts for at least a few months post primary infection.

What about an update on Ivermectin John? i see the US has now allowed it to be used at the Dr's discretion - a massive move in favour of its use from being banned other than for medical trials. Would it help here?
He has already called on the authorities to look seriously at it. Unless and until NICE approve it there's not much more he can do. It cannot be prescribed without authorisation from NICE.

I hope you’re all doing well xx
thank you so much for all the effort you are putting in to give us this information
Could I just point out John the blood should go in the square shaped well marked S and the buffer liquid goes in the circular well marked B. I did this myself last night. I dont know if it would make any difference to the overall out come of the test but thought it may do and was worth pointing out. Might I add I watch your videos every night and really enjoy the information you provide I myself have increased my dose of Vit D to 3000 a day and all my family.
Yes. I noticed thet too. I thought the "s" stood for "sample".
So the test was done wrong?
Yes Alison - I did mine the other day and put the blood sample in the port marked 's'- it made me think did I do it right or wrong?!
when i watched the video, I worried I had done mine wrong as my blood sample went in the square shaped well marked ‘s’ and the buffer liquid in the circular well ‘b’
@@deb.b3504 I thought I'd done mine wrong when I looked at video! Confusing really as the round hole would be easier to put your finger on and B might be confused with blood not buffer! Manufacturers need to make this clearer x
Am wondering if it world be worth me getting an antigen test... I had a 'cold' (fever, cough, malaise, etc.) in March and was looking at my pulse with the oximeter... and noticed my O2 was 84 (normally 98). Ended up using my spirometer, my inhaler, and emergency inhaler to get it up above 90. The interesting thing was that when it was 84 I didn't notice any shortness of breath. Knowing what I do now am wondering if I've already had it.
Thanks Dr Campbell much appreciated 👍
Dr Campbell, you are doing a great job and the awareness would be great if everyone shares these updates with as many as people. I have done my part.
Everyone I ask about their Vitamin D intake just looks blank and says “isn’t it multivitamins”? Yes, 400 IU usually, virtually everyone should be taking ten times that. I don’t understand why progressive countries don’t increase the recommended amount, then multi-Vitamin producers would have to increase it.
But K2 is needed as well,with vitamin D and I can’t find info on ratios. I take 5000 ius of vit D a day🤔
Exactly my point! Build the immune system, don’t break it down with sanitizers and lack of oxygen!
Well if you had certain disease too much vitamin d regularly COULD be bad
Something is better than nothing
In the southern hemisphere we don't have much of an issue with low vitamin d levels except for old people if they don't get outside.

@@MarcosElMalo2 I did wonder but I thought he could just be very scientifically uneducated and some more info may stop him being someone who is stupid enough to believe the misinformation.
John. Iam worried about what the Germans are saying about Astra zenecker vaccines have you any comment
it might not be effective at preventing infection but it is still 100% protective against hospitalisation. What this mean is; if Efficacy is low, say below 70%, then government cannot reach "herd immunity", even if 100% of population got the vaccine... this is bad news for government, meaning they cannot end Covid-19.
it is still good for personal benefit.
The Germans are blaming the EU commission for penny-pinching when it came to investing in vaccines whilst pouring massive amounts of money into the economic recovery fund. (2,7 bn versus 750 bn) The whole pandemic has been misjudged by the EU, too few vaccines were ordered too late and there seems to have been unrelenting bargaining for the lowest possible prices, as confirmed by the German CEO of Biontech. Also, the contract with Astra Zeneca has been poorly worded and does not give any guarantees as to a specific time-schedule within which delivery has to take place. Van der Leyen used to be German Minister for Defence and failed to have the army supplied with sufficient equipment of acceptable standard, so many Germans say she should never have been put in charge of procuring vaccines. They also say that the protection of health and welfare of citizens is a national task by law and should not have been delegated to the EU. They want to see someone take responsibility for this disaster and so far everyone has been putting the blame on someone else. Some Germans say the UK are reaping the first benefits from leaving the EU and the Germans ought to follow.
Most Germans would rather have the Biontech Pfizer vaccine as it seems to have a very high efficacy, some even say they would decline the Astra Zeneca if they were offered it. So far, the greatest disappointment has been that Biontech Pfizer was developed in Germany, received considerable state subsidies, is being produced in Belgium (apart from the US) and from there it is being exported to the rest of the world, like Israel and UK - and whilst young people in Israel are already being vaccinated, the group of the >80 in Germany will not have been completely vaccinated until the beginning of April because there is a shortage of vaccine. Germans also suspect that France vetoed a larger order from PfizerBiontech because they wanted to support their own Sanofi, whose vaccine development has failed, and the EU was also ordering from Curevac, which is a German company.
So, in short, Germans are angry at EU politicians because of incompetence and lack of judgement, foresight or transparency.
@@xponen Herd will come, it always does. The question is:- Do a few million people die because we make and take a vaccine or do 100 million die, like in 1918 when we were not able to make AND use a vaccine. If 100% of vaccinated people contract Covid, they recover, become "immune" and mostly without hospitalization. In other news Covid can never be eradicated, it will be like the virus that caused the 1918 pandemic, now called the H1N1 virus, just become a normal virus in our environment. It is the "novo" ("new") part that is deadly to the general adult population.
John, looking at Portugal and their connection with Brazil, could the dramatic surge in cases in Portugal not be linked to Brazil?
BUS DRIVERS are key workers too and on the frontline !

@@tomjohnson4681 I think you'll find that Dr Campbell has said, on several occasions, that the signs are good that immunity after infection is long lasting
Thanks again for another information-packed update Dr. Campbell. Amazing to see what they are doing in the UK. I don't believe anything like this is being done in Canada.
Funnily enough I had a letter yesterday inviting me to take part in the REACT 1 study
So did my 23year old son .
Hello dr C and Winston. Thanks for another caring update.
Just a hypothesis, but isn't there more working class black people in the densely populated inner city areas, whereas there is more working class white people in the deindustrialised north, Wales and Scotland where people tend to live in terraces/semi-detached and detached houses as opposed to the tower blocks and apartments in the inner city areas. So yes income plays a role but so does population density. If one has to go up a lift to get to the 10th floor then you'd pretty much have to share that unventilated lift with everyone else in the tower block.
Can we get information re the AZ vaccine in the over 65’s. Germany has suggested it is not given to this group, as it is untested for its efficacy. Interesting to find out how it is doing in the UK in this group...
This view is disputed by UK scientists advising our Gov't. Check out reports on the BBC. And my understanding is that over 65's were included in AZ 's clinical trials and they showed good immune response.
@@londoncalling8121 the problem is that very few people over 65 were recruited for the AstraZeneca trial, and also recruited later in the trials. the UK scientists know that and are assuming the response will be the same as in younger people. The German scientists prefer not to assume and do not think there is enough information behind the efficacy to the over 65 group.
@@albertamezzacapo4457 I don't know the deets, but I'd find it strange if this is the whole picture. It wouldn't make sense when this cohort are at highest risk and the EU sure seems keen to get their mitts on the AZ vaccine nonetheless. As John would rightly say, always check the evidence from reliable sources, which I haven't done in this case.
Bless you to the the person who got the doctor some new shirts. And thank you dr Campbell for explaining covid19. Shop online and stay safe.
It was a nice gesture but maybe John was embarrassed that he was sent shirts as he seemed to thing he must have looked scruffy. Although I loved the blue check he had on I think it was yesterday or the day before.
other than politics , any idea why the Germans are saying the AZ vaccine shouldn't be given to the elderly?
Overcaution
No data.
must be a reason why
The rumour is that it is ineffective on the over 65s ,and the Germans are being prudent with a limited supply .Use it where it gives benefit rather than as part of a propaganda campaign.?
Cannot understand why. My local surgery is giving nothing but AZ vaccine.
Thank you for working so hard!
Thank you once again Dr Campbell.
Thank you so much for this video, I have just received the test myself and will be doing it tomorrow
Just double check where the blood sample goes - I did mine the other day and I'm sure it went in the second port marked S - a lot of others on here have commented thats how they did it too so the video could be the wrong or right way! Not sure how much difference it makes
@@jennywalsh2752 many thanks. I will double check
Love the soft toy on your window sill noticed he has a different face mask on everyday . I d9nt watch the news on TV I wait for your daily update you say it how it is thx
That little stuffed Doggie with mask is lovingly Winston 🥰
can we please get the notes as usual if possible :) thank you - v informative and great as usual
Thank you.i did notice the new shirt. You are so kind to so this everyday for us!
The infection rate has dropped from 64.000 to 28.000 in the last 26 days. That's a dramatic drop in cases in my opinion. 6 Million people in the UK have been vaccinated now so that should play a dramatic part in the infection rate and deaths drop.
It had been snowing all night. So at ....
8:00 I made a snowman.
8:10 A feminist passed by and asked me why I didn't make a snow woman.
8:15 So, I made a snow woman
8:17 My feminist neighbor complained about the snow woman's voluptuous chest saying it objectified snow women everywhere
8:20 The gay couple living nearby threw a hissy fit and moaned it could have been two snowmen instead
8:22 The transgender person asked why I didn't just make one snow person with detachable parts
8:25 The vegans at the end of the lane complained about the carrot nose, as veggies are food and not to decorate snow figures with.
8:28 I am being called a racist because the snow couple is white..
8:31 The Muslim gent across the road demands the snow woman wear a burqa
8:40 The Police arrive saying someone has been offended
8:42 The feminist neighbour complained again that the broomstick of the snow woman needs to be removed because it depicted women in a domestic role
8:43 The Government equalities officer arrived and threatened me with eviction
8:45 TV news crew from the BBC shows up. I am asked if I know the difference between snowmen and snow-women? I reply, "Snowballs" and am called a sexist.
9:00 I'm on the News as a suspected terrorist, racist, homophobic sensibility offender bent on stirring up trouble during difficult weather.
9:10 I am asked if I have any accomplices... My children are taken by social services
9:29 Far left protesters offended by everything are marching down the street demanding for me to be beheaded.
Moral: There is no moral to this story. It's just the world in which we live today and it's going to get fucking worse!!.
What an imagination
👍
Ahh - snowflakes
Q. What is the difference between a snow man and snow woman
A. A snow woman has snowballs.

The shirt is very nice I noticed the plaid is very good looking on you. How kind of that person.
Researchers in southern Brazil said they have discovered patients infected with two different strains of the new coronavirus
simultaneously, reflecting concerns about the growing number of variants in the country.
That is exactly what happened in Wuhan and is how they got the virus "to show up" there. Co-infections are nasty.
And you believe that too don't you? th-cam.com/video/2eqvN0KqA74/w-d-xo.html
Ad far as I understand most positive tests will show more than one strain and they name wich by the dominant strain..
Mistake on antibody test @ 29:00
=> Drop blood at middle, square box “S”. Then Buffer will go up passing blood to reach the window of lines of IgG, IgM and Control.
PS: Thanks to you I had mine and my husband’s Vitamin D checked. 53 and 48 respectfully. Thanks for giving me a little piece of mind. Still taking ALL precautions
I’m shocked you’ve shared this data from the react study after it being discredited by kings college London. The react group didn’t gather data during December when the cases were high meaning they skipped from November to January missing vital data.
I'm not surprised.. he last discussed ivermectin in early December based on one study done in October when there were a total of 30 studies available. Now there are 53. Bangladesh, population 165 million, is using ivermectin.. yesterday they had a total of 17 deaths.
Good poibt. The caveat that it only describes folk willing to participate could be made more clear, absolutely :)
Is quite clear that John is counting PCR or LF positives as actual infections when neither are particularly accurate.
The way out of this manufactured self destructive stalemate is to stop testing the general public unless they are unwell
The vulnerable could be tested for vitamin D3 and Zinc deficiency since most who ended up with Covid were deficient in these things.
HCQ, ZN, IVM could be used to treat actual infections and blood thinners to stop clotting
Different stages require different treatment, manufacturers of the experimental vaccines state they may only reduce symptoms they are not a cure, not safe and don't stop infection nor transmission.
I fail to see the logic of mass screening or vaxxing of healthy people on an industrial scale
WHO say those in pregnancy should not have the vaccine and by contrast the CDC say the opposite, EXPERTS now say over 65s should not be vaxxed perhaps due to the 31 unnecessary vaccine deaths in Norway, in any case safety aside, vaccines are most generally inefficacious in the over 65s, quite clearly with experimental substances it takes years to learn about safety, effectiveness etc
Where is the logic in jabbing the pregnant, the elderly, infirm and little children with these experimental unnecessary vaccines?
Please, If minded to respond polite answers only this is serious deadly serious.

Also why did he pick react1 study instead react2 , which talks about reinfections and shows that reinfections after natural infection is less than 5% which means it's better than those so called vaccines.
Dr John 👍

@@valeriefromoregon Hilarious! Only for JC, methinks!
You just know it’s gonna be good.
@@valeriefromoregon Yes, been following from the beginning, too. Very lucky we found him! Best wishes.
@@robinmyman True!
Not had proper internet for a while and not been able to watch him as much. Soo glad to have my daily update.
All those conspiracy theorists are so terrified of him.
OOPS! Test video: Blood should have been in the smaller square hole marked 'S', the reagent (?) goes in the lower circular one. (Just so that others don't copy this and make the same mistake -- I don't know but can only guess this may make the test less sensitive...)
Thank you,Dr.!!!
Christine reminds me of Mrs Columbo - often heard of, never seen! :-)
With good reason?
Kent variant .... not a wonder it was first detected in Kent with the channel tunnel, ferry terminal and Gatwick all in the area
Interesting point.
We are all worried about whether the vaccines will work against the new variants. But is there a risk that treatments may not work as well on these variants?
More concern with the S. African and Brazilian variants.
Ivermectin works on the variants
I don't know how much time you have, but this online lecture talks about the way mRNA vaccines have been developed and how the genome of the virus has changed over the course of this pandemic. One of the things he noted was that there is a large selective pressure for the virus to mutate in such a way that the treatment (namely monoclonal antibodies) is less effective and thus the virus can outcompete other SARS CoV 2 viruses in the host's body. th-cam.com/video/3RhRfaZV4l0/w-d-xo.html
Who cares the average age of death from covid is higher than the average life expectancy anyway.

Just watched your presentation 28th Jan 2021, which I am extremely grateful for. Your information and delivery seems to be the only way I can get honest and true information on the progress of the pandemic. There is one thing however I feel I need to point out. The video that was kindly sent to you demonstrating how to do the test for antibodies, was incorrect. The sample of blood should have been put in the square receptacle of the tester and not in the bottom circular receptacle. As I have also taken part in this survey, it is clearly shown in the instruction booklet. This is not to criticise but to insure other viewers don't make a similar mistake when doing the test. Keep up the good work. Kind Regards
Another informative and essential update. Thanks as always. Stay safe.
