A leading Canadian pathologist called COVID-19 a hoax and shamed governments nation-wide for overblown responses.
In a recently released Zoom call with Edmonton City Council, Dr. Roger Hodkinson said the virus is nothing more than “bad flu”. He suggested the hysteria and shutdowns stop immediately while also criticizing the public for blindly donning masks and walking around “like lemmings”.
“This is the greatest hoax ever perpetrated on an unsuspecting public,” said Hodkinson in his address. “It’s outrageous.”
“It should be nothing more than a bad flu season,” he continued. “This is not Ebola, it’s not SARS. It’s politics playing medicine, and that’s a very dangerous game.”
Dr. Hodkinson is a graduate of Cambridge University in the UK. He is a medical specialist in pathology, including virology, and served as Chairman of the Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons committee in Ottawa. He previously worked as a Pathologist in the Medical Examiner’s Office in Edmonton and is now the CEO of Western Medical Assessments.
He called on the city officials to open businesses, drop any mask mandates and get back to life as normal.
“There is utterly unfounded public hysteria driven by the media and politicians,” he said.
“Masks are utterly useless,” Dr. Hodkinson added. “There is no evidence base for their effectiveness whatsoever. Paper masks and fabric masks are simply virtue signaling.”
The doctor also called social distancing useless. He said the only action needed is for people to rest at home while sick, protect the most vulnerable and give at-risk individuals 3,000-5,000 IU of Vitamin D per day.
Dr. Hodkinson noted that Vitamin D has been “shown to radically reduce the likelihood of infection”.
“You gotta get a grip on this,” he told the council. “The scale of the response you are undertaking with no evidence for it is utterly ridiculous.
“The risk of death, under 65 in this province is 1 in 300,000,” he added. “It’s just another bad flu and you gotta get your minds around that.”
“Let people make their own decisions. You should be totally out of the business of medicine. I am absolutely outraged that this has reached this level. It should all stop tomorrow.”
While Dr. Hodkinson’s current company deals with COVID test kits he did say that test results are not 100% confirmation of infection and have been used by the media to drive panic.

Thank goodnes for this doctor and others around Canada and the world, who are speaking up for Truth! The media is spinning numbers and selling lies for the ones who have bribed our governments to gain profit and control. We know many other doctors undertand this nonsense “science” of counting “cases”, symptoms or no symptoms, but they are wanting to keep their jobs, and at this point, government tyranny is coming down hard and fast. We must stand together!

“It should be nothing more than a bad flu season,” he continued. “This is not Ebola, it’s not SARS. . . ” Hmm, actually, it is SARS. SARS-CoV-2, to be exact, or COVID 19.
The flu kills on average 40 thousand people a year in the US. SARS-CoV-2 has already killed over a quarter million in 10 months and it’s not done yet.
Some doctor.

In Canada:
2018 – 8,511 flu related deaths
2020 – 11,081 (“covid related deaths”)
The population has grown in 2 years, and aged…we are on par from 2 years ago i would say. BIGGEST HOAX

You’re not counting all the other forms of death. You’re not counting the fact that media exaggerates. You’re not counting the fact that doctors have been pressured to label non Covid death as Covid deaths. You’re not excepting the fact that your likelihood of survival is +%99. The lockdowns didn’t work and still fewer people are dying this year than any recent year despite Covid fatalities. Get over your fears and drink the truth.

Thank you to all Doctors in Canada and around the world who have the courage to write the truth!
The media and our governments are bribed and they seek to take power and control us. Government tyranny will collapse. Let’s stick together Friends.
