Trust Gone! OMG Lockdown TOP Gov Advisor £5M INVESTOR In Vaccine Company
Sir Patrick Vallance, the chief scientific adviser, has already cashed in more than £5 million worth of shares he received from GSK during his tenure from 2012 until March 2018. How can this man be impartial???
Blackie tryhard is trying to make his British politics matter somehow.
Maybe he invested in the toothpaste division of GSK?

That probably doesn't matter. He's still set to make a sh*tload.
Revealed, people, is the REAL reason why we're in a lockdown.
British pharmaceutical giant GlaxoSmithKline, based in Brentford, London, has been selected to provide the United States with 100 million doses of Covid vaccine.
*****
Sir Patrick Vallance, the UK's Chief Scientific Adviser, who leads the Government’s expert panel on vaccines, holds 43,111 shares in GlaxoSmithKline (GSK) from his time as president of the drugs company.
According to the Telegraph, accounts show Sir Patrick held 404,201 shares when he resigned in 2018 – worth £6.1 million at today’s price. He has already sold more than £5 million in shares he received during his six-year tenure with the company.
GSK is one of over 20 pharmaceutical firms around the world racing to provide a vaccine for coronavirus. The manufacturer has deals with the British and US governments to supply them with jabs, subject to terms in a final contract.
Insisting that Sir Patrick should have declared his stake in the company, a senior Conservative MP and ex-Cabinet minister told The Telegraph: ‘If he is making decisions on vaccines and advising the Government on them, then he either needs to divest himself of the shares or make a declaration every time he touches on the subject.
‘In the Commons, every time MPs raise an issue in which there is a registered interest, they have to declare it. Every time he is talking about vaccines or on TV, he should put it on the table.’
It is unclear whether Vallance has declared his interest at any stage. Health Secretary Matt Hancock has denied that Sir Patrick’s shares in GSK present a conflict of interest.

When was the Covid vaccine proved to be safe and effective?
Sanofi and GSK announce today the start of the Phase 1/2 clinical trial for their adjuvanted COVID-19 vaccine. The vaccine candidate, developed in partnership by Sanofi and GSK, uses the same recombinant protein-based technology as one of Sanofi’s seasonal influenza vaccines with GSK’s established pandemic adjuvant technology.
The Phase 1/2 clinical trial is a randomised, double blind and placebo-controlled trial designed to evaluate the safety, reactogenicity (tolerability) and immunogenicity (immune response) of the COVID-19 vaccine candidate. A total of 440 healthy adults are being enrolled in the trial across 11 investigational sites in the United States.
The Companies anticipate first results in early December 2020, to support the initiation of a Phase 3 trial in December 2020. If these data are sufficient for licensure application, it is planned to request regulatory approval in the first half of 2021.

Well out of almost 8 billion people, less than 1 million have (supposedly) died. 0.0125% of the world's population has (supposedly) died from Covid. We don't need to vaccinate every human.
You should try talking to Albertans that work for a living instead of swallowing whatever garbage turdOWE puts out for the gullible. It would appear they do not agree with you.
ALL international flights should have been cancelled about a month or more earlier when we first heard if it. One of Trumps smarter moves. Locking down the whole country was totally unnecessary if the above had been dome. Almost all construction carried on with very few getting sick which proves this. Parliament should have stayed at least partly open and had meetings via video conferencing.
Our stockpile of PPE should never have been sold without replacements being purchased. This was truly criminal incompetence.
I would not have appointed anyone with such close connections to the WHO as chief health officer in charge of this. There are qualified people around that do not carry that odour.
A much more measured approach to handing out money to those affected by layoffs could have been done through existing programs, which would have cut costs and lessened the amount of fraud. Currently the government doesn't even know how many people got CERB fraudulently. Certainly no borrowed money should be given to foreign countries during this time.
When was the last time everybody on Earth received a vaccination for the same thing?
Is Rishi Bonkers? “We Can’t Put Our Lives On Hold” Helllloooo!!!!
