I agree! Let’s start a petition. I am sure we all have stories about how he has kept us informed and educated since the beginning of this mess. When the politicians were unclear Dr. Campbell provided me with hope through education💙
Dr Campbell, I have been watching your videos for around two weeks now after one popped up on my UA-cam suggested. I would like to thank you for all your efforts in bringing us up to date and relevant information. It's clear to see that you really care about this situation, and the people that it is affecting. I wish you and your family all the very best of health and I am certainly glad that I found your channel.
There's a north/south divide in California. Los Angeles residents in particular have been misbehaving. I've read that in SoCal, ICU beds have resorted to surge capacity, whereas 34% of ICU beds in NorCal remain available.
Dr. Campbell, my wife and I really appreciate your videos! It is so refreshing to have a data-focused approach. My wife is a nurse (so she explains medical terms and such that I don't understand :) ) and I am an engineer, so your medical, data-driven presentations are much appreciated! A comment regarding the variation in the number of vaccines per bottle. From my many years of manufacturing experience I suspect that variation is due to the inherent variability in any manufacturing process. Over time, no doubt this process will be "dialed in" and the number of vaccines per bottle will become much more consistent. Optimizing a process takes time and the priority was obviously on making the vaccine available, as it should be. Again, love your videos. Thanks!
I lost my good friend in march, she died from covid alone in the hospital. This was horrible. We couldn't even be with her, nobody could. It was just horrible.
If it’s any consolation, she would probably have been so medicated that she would have been unaware that she died with nursing staff around her and not family/friends.
I'm so sorry for your loss. This Pandemic has been a Worldwide tragedy felt on very personal levels. So many are suffering and grieving. We are heading into the end of it. Please try to stay strong and healthy until it is finally over. Best wishes from VT. US
Carly's testimony was very moving. I had a job where every day when I went to work I believed my life was in jeopardy. It was hard and I eventually resigned. I tried to stand up to it by will, but will breaks mind and body. Eventually, I concluded the better part of valor and common sense was that I needed to seek different employment in another field.
Thank you for all this information Dr. Campbell. I am a retired critical care RN in California. I appreciated all this information you give us. I wish more people would watch these videos to get real information! I was unaware of the CDC's delay in testing, thank you for that information! Happy New Year Sir!
Dad died of covid in hospital in April and alone now my mum died on the 2nd of December in a nursing home alone not the ending for my parent’s i could have ever predicted
I am so glad I cancelled Christmas. My son and partner both tested positive today. My sister in law and husband both tested positive on Christmas day. Sister in law is very ill.
Thank you. My Mum's a retired nurse in the UK. One of her friends, a nurse currently, is a volunteer in the vaccination programme She says they have all been working incredibly hard to get the vaccine out to as many people as possible as quickly as possible here.
@Smurfs Rule it may come as a surprise to you, but many people don't do things because of pride. They have a genuine concern for others. Rather than being a conspiracy theory troll on the internet.
You can find a variety of quality stuff if you dig deep enough. Yale used to have some free recorded courses on UA-cam, probably still up somwhere, and here's the historian Mark Felton... though he does focus mainly on WWII stuff. ua-cam.com/video/2wzksVIIhXM/v-deo.html
Thank you Dr John. My only concern is what a pity that the UK Health Agencies cannot see the importance of giving Vitamin D in the correct dose or in giving Vitamin D in the other more rapid form for people in Hospital with Covic-19 when you think how many more lives it could save and when all the evidence is there if they were to look or to do their own studies.
yes there is very little general health advice or direct treatment methods...promoted innthe media or official channels... itd just about the numbers game....& vaccine vaccine vaccine...
I think there is a greater benefit to taking vitamin D before coming into contact with SARS-CoV2. So it would be good for you to go with that instinct and make sure that you and your family supplement with it sooner rather than later.
Thankyou again Dr John Campbell, you are a star, your voice is so soothing too. Carly my heart goes out to you, I thank all those on the front line and espeshially those with children to return home to, the stress must be unbearable. God bless you Carly.
I write this with tears in my eyes having watched Carly’s message. A very human aspect to the pandemic and very emotional. Not sure what words to use that reflect how thankful we are to all frontline and essential workers.
The vax for Carly should stop her at least of getting a bad case of the disease. There is no data still regarding one not getting it to some degree and then transmitting it to others or how long it will be effective for. Let's be clear, this is still an emergency issued vaccine that's has been fast tracked.
Everything she is scared about, she should still be scared of. 1) The vaccine does not stop you catching the virus 2) The vaccine does not stop you spreading the virus 3) You are meant to be self-isolating between the vaccine doses 4) The vaccine does have side effects and any individual taking it should not be in a position of exposing themselves to others
Correct front line workers are just amazing health workers postmen lorry drivers shop workers keeping everyone going in their country total stars best wishes from Glasgow
Jesus, emotional? what the hell for I have never seen such a piece of engineered virtue signaling in my life she ought to be in a soap opera! Let's get this right, she's had a vaccine for a disease she has very little chance of getting, if she does get it she would probably not know she even had it. I haven't seen such a display of falsehood like that since Matt Hancock's fake routine, they ought to get together and form a duet.
Very reassuring the medical workers get the vaccine first. Better than watching young and healthy members of Congress in the US posting video of themselves getting vaccinated to `show us the vaccine is safe`.
We as a family (including in laws) here in California have all made the agreement that other then groceries we are all staying home, and we have been since March. We exchanged gifts by driving to the others house and leaving gifts on eachothers doorsteps. We didn't hang Christmas lights or decorations outside, because if you fall off the ladder we were worried we wouldn't get help. I know many are not listening to cautions, but just know some us are very much being careful. Thank you John for your wonderful videos, I always feel edified after viewing them
Oh ya i mean how would we get through a virus with average age of death 82 years old with 2.6 cormobidities.. I mean life expectancy in the west is 80 .. Thank god for mr nurse here lol
@@pappishan You better hope that applies to you because we’ve had a lot of deaths in America of people who died below age 35 with no other health problems.
@@CMoore8539 no you haven't..thhousands of kids die each year of flu we never became hysterical.. Over all deaths of all countries are no more than any other year..
I am immunocompromised myself, but my family is higher on my list of protection than my own health. Plus, I'm early 20s, my mom (who finished her cancer treatment in September) is the one I am afraid for, but she is a smart woman and knows the rights from wrongs. Thank you, my good sir, for being such an amazing light during a dark time. Would be insane otherwise!
The delay in the US was due to allow certain congress people diversify their stocks. There are so many of them that made money. Especially those that bought stock in companies that make PPE stocks. Part of delay in new economic stimulus bill due to M McConnell refusing to sign unless there was provisions so people could not sue individuals or companies whos negligence used death or harm from COVID19. Thus the delays in US. Push in new vaccine probably again due to who owns stocks.
The entire enterprise seems like a mechanism to enrich governments, contractors and their mates. Even people like this guy Campbell get $$ for clickbait and panic porn
@@mousiebrown1747 and insider trading.... double standards/hypocrites.... Ugh! Stay safe and Thank you Dr. John for keeping us informed and a sense of knowledge is power.
@@mousiebrown1747Actually. it is perfectly legal for senators and congressmen to take advantage of inside knowledge of stocks and government contractors, Surprise!
My sister is the nursing manager of a nursing home here in Canada, and she got her first shot of the vaccine last week. She says it was the best Christmas present ever. She is beyond exhausted after having dealt with an outbreak that lasted months.
John should be on the new years honours list. He's done so much for the public throughout this pandemic. If they can throw around knighthoods and OBEs for sports personalities and TV stars, they can surely find a suitable award for someone that's actually helpful during the worst public health crisis in our lifetime.
Thank you John for highlighting just a brief few of the shortcomings of the CDC. More people need to understand how poorly this institution has performed!
My father in law is in hospital he’s been in there 3 weeks now he’s 86 he’s hasn’t got COVID I just want to say thank you to all the staff they are doing an amazing job. We haven’t been allowed to see him so we have been recording videos which the staff have shown him now he’s feeling better 💖
Thank you hundred times over for your care and attention to people Dr Campbell. Making sure that you got permission to share the video of the nurse. Your professionalism and awareness of humanity of is always 100%.
Just latching onto this given it needs attention. The person praising the vaccine at 19 minutes into this video has no idea that she still is not safe from the virus. The vaccine does not stop you catching or spreading the virus, you still need to wear the masks, you still need to distance and you should still not visit people outside your bubble. All of her fears are still in play - in fact she's arguably at a higher risk until she gets the second dose and is meant to be self-isolating for a month until she gets the second dose. Instead she's going to endanger herself and others because she's reacting emotionally out of fear rather than understanding the risks of having the vaccine.
@@samdemic3373 It's acknowledged by the government that no research has been done to see if the vaccine impacts reproductive capability. Let alone the known side effects including risk of heart defects, potential exposure to the wild virus causing severe effects, etc...
I really appreciate your updates,. The news can make me feel more anxious and even though your news isn’t always good, I feel more informed and calmer. Thank you and it was nice to see Carly feel so relieved.
Best thing to do lil is not to worry as long as you wear a mask physical distance and have good hygiene try vitimim in d mouthwash etc you will be fine best wishes from Glasgow scotland
@@wboyle9721 thank you, I’ve been doing that but I have a teen who could be forced back to school. Friends have caught it from their children at school, even though they have been so so careful. That’s what worries me, and my teenager doesn’t want to bring it home either.
I know where you are coming from lil as my wife works in health care I'm sure you will be fine if your family take precautions school situations are worrying I agree are you in the United States?
My friend's father had a stroke and died alone in a rehab facility because no visitors were allowed . Everyone is dying alone because of this pandemic. It's terrible.
Branch Covidians don't recognise other types of death. Only Covid deaths count. Others are just collateral damage that barely warrant a mention. Branch Covidian dogma holds that all births and deaths must be alone. Human contact and compassion is not tolerated. Branch Covidians see people only as disease vectors, not individuals.
@@simon-ec5kv People who refused to follow the rules are the reason this has been going on so long. And then they act like it's the fault of those doing everything they can to stop the virus. You have no compassion you are too selfish to even see other people's pain.
A heartfelt thank you for Carly’s contribution to this mornings update. How all medical personnel served and continue to serve on the front lines deserves our respect, appreciation and adherence to all health recommendations regarding COVID. Thank you all who have sacrificed in countless ways and ultimately putting your life and lives of your loved ones “on the line”.
As heartening as it was to hear Carly's experience, it appears that the US has yet to begin vaccinating the most vulnerable people - i.e. the elderly care home residents, who are more than one thousand times more likely to die from a covid infection than the average person, even a healthcare worker. I suspect the UK deathrate will begin to show a more rapid fall as a result of the vaccination of the elderly, who so far have made up THE MAJORITY of vaccinated people. There could not be a clearer indication of societal values. Gandhi once said "the true measure of any society can be found by the way it treats it's most vulnerable members", and by that measure, the US does not rate very highly. There appears to be almost a feeding frenzy amongst healthcare workers for the first doses.
You people are horrible! You try working in a covid ward every day and see how "ott" you'll be! Britts are notoriously placid to the point of being brown bread! Shame on you!
We don't seem to be able to act in an expeditious and efficient way when there's a huge crisis like this one. Next time the virus could be WAY worse and we should take this opportunity as a way to learn from the mistakes and prepare ourselves.
Like lock down borders and have enforced quarantine when necessary and not advisory. Quarantine in and out of a city used to be very normal. 40 days just waiting to show you have no symptoms before you are allowed into the city. And this one is pretty sad: www.cdc.gov/quarantine/historyquarantine.html It seems the USA has quarantine facilities, they just don't use it, nor do they do any of the required monitoring.
I've heard the bubobic plague is slowly starting to spread. :( There's been slow updates on it, but once it gets noticed,, it'll probably be too late..
I go to a medical center/hospital complex once a month recently, best I see is a few hand sanitizer stations. I counted the surfaces I have to touch, the number I have to touch before I even get to a sanitizer, and the numbers of people who aren't masked (including staff), and well, it's worse than what you say.
@@favnged The only reason the bubonic plague was so terrible is because we didn't have antibiotics at the time. There are new cases of it every year, but it can be treated with antibiotics now.
I had to help my 2nd grade nephew with his distance learning last week (his parents are divorced, my brother had to work and asked me to help with the kids on his days that he has them as I am on permanant disability and have no children of my own) and the poor kid couldn't keep his frustration pent up any more and hit his Ipad. I asked if he was having issues with the work and he just screamed "I hate distance learning, I hate stupid working on Ipads, I hate not being in school! I just want to be in school in my class! I hate stupid Covid! Why won't it just go away? " He broke my heart. I gave him a big hug and just him cry. I wish more people could have something like this, if a dying loved one doesn't get to them, perhaps the frustration of a child who can't understand what's going on will, and get people to do the right thing.
That's a shame dragyn explain to him and have a good chat it must be so difficult for you be positive we will be out of this soon stay strong best wishes to your family greetings from glasgow
I think the impact on children is being underestimated, when someone asked me if I would have the vaccine, my response is that I've had a long and eventful life, I owe it to the youngsters to get this done, so that they can have the same chances as I have. My granddaughter is desperate to go to play school, she's bursting with energy and a sense of adventure, my responsibility is to help make that happen for her and others. The stress on parents is also having an effect on their lives, why would anyone not want to make life enjoyable again.
Correct Michelle I have a son he loves going to the gym all closed now I could see his disappointment when it closed again due to covid I try and add a bit of humour in conversations this usually helps laughter is good medicine stay safe Michelle greetings from scotland
@@May54321 only if we let it. lately we seem hell-bent on predicting mental issues and then supporting the continuation of such. My oldest did her senior year under covid, she's fine. #3 failed most of yr 10 because homeschooling isn't for everyone..... it wasn't brilliant but frankly, The Blitz must have been worse, we humans are resilient, and I remind my kids of that. We will get through this, we will be healthy and happy and life will improve. Telling kids it's going to mess up their whole lives is a dangerous path to take IMHO, but you do you.
I was in The Netherlands at the start of August...the temperaturs were in the 90s...I was talking to a Dutch chap around the hotel swimming pool...he told me he actually knew someone who had been to hospital with Covid...then he asked me...I told he I knew 5 people from where I worked who'd lost loved ones in hospital due to Covid...the youngest a nurse aged 29 that was on national news. I also told him he didn't nor his fellow countrymen and women what was about to come...he asked me what I was on about...I told him that when I was in Amsterdam central no one wore masks...it was like Amsterdam was a Covid free zone, stag and hen parties...the red light district from what I seen as I walked through was very busy...bars and restaurants very busy and around Amsterdamse Bos ( Massive forest next to Schiphol airport) was very busy with North Africans sitting in large groups. Dutch kids playing in paddle pools, teens gathered round in big groups...all swimming in one of the lakes that swimming was allowed. So I told him he didn't have a clue on what was about to happen in The Netherlands....Now he does. I arrived back into the UK on the Tuesday and by 4am on the Saturday anyone arriving from The Netherlands into the UK had to self isolate for 14 days. It doesn't surprise me one bit that The Netherlands have the most cases in Europe.
Yes and the sad thing is that we can be pretty sure almost nobody followed those 14 days isolation rules properly. I myself flew back from Switzerland around early September, there were people in the customs queue laughing and joking about it, many saying things to suggest they were not going to isolate for one moment. Personally I'd like to have seen stronger penalties, but I suspect the UK government have been very worried about civil disorder. I often wonder how people would react if Covid 19 had more open symptoms. If C-19 had symptoms like Ebola people would be barricading themselves in their homes. Perhaps there should be more on television to show people dying in Covid wards. We have horrible pictures on boxes of cigarettes, maybe we should use similar methods to warn people of Covid.
Part of the problem in the UK is thst you can only get a test if you have one of the 3 main symptoms- high temp, new cough or loss of taste/smell. The NHS needs to update the list, especially children show different symptoms.
You are a treasure Doctor, I’ve been watching you since January 2020.... it’s been nearly a year now... I am so grateful to you, I know each video must take a lot of work. There are people all over the world grateful to you. Thank you and greetings from California.
When the first Covid patient in New York City was diagnosed, he had traveled by subway to a hospital where he spend a significant amount of time in the emergency room waiting. The mayor of NYC held a press conference with a CDC "epidemiologist" who said that anybody suspecting to be infected should likewise take public transportation to visit their local hospital and masks, gloves, or even hygiene were not mentioned at all. Contact tracing was not on the agenda either and people were assured that this virus was not airborne and fomites were not a concern even though the Chinese experts were very vocal about the exact opposite. I call that incompetent to the max if not outright mass murder.
Mass murder is an exaggeration, but they should have read about what was happening in China at the time. I did that too. Some Chinese newspapers are displayed online in English, so you could read from day to day what was going on there. Our 'health leaders' should have made themselves aware of everything going on there at the time instead of thinking it was far from us ... and probably would never get here..
Dr Mina (Harvard professor of Public Health) explains why Dr John is deadly wrong about massive use of quick self administered antigen tests for infectiousness. Dr John mis represented the facts and is dangerous to trust in this matter. The antigen tests could eliminate the pandemic in a month. Sadly the FDA makes this illegal. It is a crime in the US. Check out for yourself and you will realize we are deliberately being killed by the FDA through their criminalizing the one quick easy solution.
@@j.engberts399When.i was following as much of the news from any source I could find on the virus from the very beginning im January of this year, whenever I went to American news' channels, I mostly and almost exclusively saw stuff about the impeachment hearings. That was what dominated the attention of the US then, I think, thus the neglect of data and virus related developments in Asia generally.
@@samdemic3373 Sandra Westley there is very little flu in the UK as nobody is mixing and nearly all people wear masks, other wise not allowed into shops. Not one of my friends has had flu but quite a few have had Covid-19
Thank you for everything you do John. You're pretty much our main source for pandemic news as I feel I trust your word more than the doom and gloom Dr's and media. Edit: Why do all these people below watch John Campbell's videos if they disagree with him so much? 🤣
@@humourless682 How on earth did you come to that conclusion? He's been realistic and optimistic in the long term immunity based on facts (not non-facts like antibodies which if you just get your info from the media you're led to believe immunity is mere months).
God, there are numerous sources of information on social media, a lt of which blows this guys narrative out of the water. Real scientists, virologist, immunologist. But yet the blind sheep still follow the corrupt shepherd
Good afternoon John! You help us keep it all in perspective. Tiny bit scary here in south london... figures from ZOE app for my area says active cases up by 3389 since last week. We are now at 6834 active symptomatic cases... wish us luck, everyone. Stay safe and well, all. Be kind to each other out there. Xx
@@jonhay75 Come on then Mr Jon share your whacky conspiracy on who "they" are, and "what they want to do to us", then tell us "why" they want to do this to us.
I nursed for a while and I agree that dying alone on a ward is heartbreaking for patients and the staff who look after them. Dying with no one to bear witness is so sad.
I volunteer for an organization called NO One Dies Alone (NODA). The nurses, Drs or social workers call us and we stay with the individual, taking shifts, until they have passed. We are also able to go into the Covid units, should we feel comfortable. PPE, is provided for us.
I have a friend in Maine who was in hospital for a non-covid reason. He’s still not doing well. He’s also disabled. He needed transport from the small hospital he’s in, local hospital to a larger hospital where his specialists are. However, that hospital is full and full of covid cases so he was denied transport. They said he could be transported tomorrow. But that’s been cancelled and now the larger hospital is transferring their over flow of covid cases to the smaller hospital. He was sent home. No room at the inn. Apparently his health care having a condition and disability is not a priority. It’s awful! And to think many taking up beds he should have access to are those who have been minimizing this pandemic....

This government shill is spreading misinformation promoting this virus hoax. Anyone that takes an untested RNA vaccine made by corporations that cannot be sued when you have an adverse reaction or die is insane. PCR created hoax
Dr Campbell: After almost a year, you are still updating on a daily basis about COVÏD! Appreciate your conviction, efforts, and compassion. You have used most layman language to explain a complex issue. Thank you for informing and educating the public to protect themselves and others and advocating govs to take actions. If only the western world had listened to your warning, the pandemic could’ve been dealt swiftly in the right direction! It’s just sad and frustrating. Thank you again! Ps How do we find your email address?
Hi, I just wanted to ask if your body had any reaction after receiving the Pfizer vaccine since last week? And did the health official tell you that you have to receive a second dose after several months?
Imagine a vaccine that didn’t prevent you getting the virus or prevent you transmitting it but you still believed them that if you take it you will get your freedoms back.
I live in California. I am in the second largest city in the state and in the county with the second highest population (each second to Los Angeles). According to our local authorities, our ICUs are NOT full and have been going between 16% to 22% availability over the last month. And that's without the normal surge capacity they have available. There are spots that are in crisis, LA and San Bernardino in particular. News sources are questionable at best and our Governor is a piece of work.
I'm in Ontario Canada and my wife (nurse) knows a few docs & nurses in Los Angeles and she said they were reporting the same. That was a few weeks ago though. She said she'd let me know if that's changed when she gets a chance to talk to them.
Hello Dr Campbell as a recent recovering survivor of Covid 19 I found all the info and updates very useful to understand what happened to me and people around the world, I'm a Chinese Latino from Panama and the situation here is delicate also, we are waiting for a Surge in the next 15 days because people want it to celebrate holidays with families hope things get better. Just for you to know I was treated with Remdesivir I consider that allow me to get better and shorten my time in Semi Intensive at hospital. We are in Lockdown in Christmas and New Year.
So happy to know you did well and are on the road of recovery! My son and daughter in law, both RNs, say that their patients are all treated with Remdesivir, Zinc, and Azithromyacin and have recovered well. (Here in the US.) Happy and Healthy New Year to you!
Thank you for all your work. I like how the panther (or is it a cat?) is changing its mask every day. And how the seasons change behind your window. I'm following since february. Stay healthy dear Dr. Campbell. Many greetings from Germany.
Thank you so much Dr. Campbell. Not only do I love the format, clarifications, education but I love listening to you. You are my go to source for covid. Love learning about more than just the US (being Canadian but living in the states.) Thank you so very much. I look forward everyday to your report!
Thank you very much Dr. John ... you have now brought 'the good news' about the Oxford vaccine, because we in the Netherlands are still under tension ... They reported today that 'good news will be coming' about the Oxford vaccin.... but we didn't get to hear just yet what it will be ... so we got a scoop via your channel. Thumbs up and cheers to you!
Sending my deepest sympathy to you and your family on your mum’s passing and these very difficult circumstances. God bless you all with comfort, support, encouragement, and the best and sweetest memories of your mum.
John, I have been on the job since 27 January on 3 continents and 5 countries. Loads of what you have done has been amazing helpful. I have noticed far much more drama and your recent shift to become more political and I'm not alone. I have been in medicine 39 plus years and beg you not to go off the rails. Great man, please keep the science real and manageable for all who may click your channel. Remember that we are remembered for our kindness, professionalism and knowledge. Taking jabs at people in power, pharmaceutical companies and the like is below you , sir. Thank you for all the positive work that you have done in all the months we have been fighting at this COVID19 event.
I understand why Carlie would be emotional & thankful for the vaccine. This has been a rough disease and it's about to get a lot rougher. We're going to have a really rough time soon. I hope the newer variants will create a strain that doesn't cause human illness, especially not an inflammatory response. Prayers for you from California, Carlie, and to you too, Dr. Campbell! Perhaps we can all pull together and root for each other worldwide. I think we do, yet the media seems it would like to have people at each other's throats. Unbelievable. My heart goes out to people and animals worldwide that are affected by this virus. Everyone take care!
Dr. you are, as always, precise, accurate, informative, professional, heartwarming and showing restraint. Above all, your service to all of us is much appreciated.
15:30 -- The CDC did, early on, develop a testing kit for Covid, but the kit didn't work. Many weeks passed before the CDC could develop a replacement test.
I'm a Brazilian who follows your teachings quite some time. I have a sister, Doctor John, and few months (about 3) she started to cough (probably bronquitis) I could hear a stridor. "Funny" thing is: IN THE FIRST HOURS OF the same day, I was reading NHS guidelines about covid -- about the stridor sound, G-od, I will do remember forever; according to the NHS from UK, people hearing such noise just dial 999. If wasnt the medicine (drugs) knowledge (most of what I know is just memories from my dad; he passed away way before SARS CoV2...) probably my sister, alive and well (I hope meet Doctor John; it is hard to see post covid future of this life of mine in this sad country) if not infected (because BRAZILIAN NHS is very Brazilianistic...) with something really serious, my little Luiza was part of Brazilian biased statistics.
Joe Leonard on Tiffany Dover...many think she died. I'm thinking perhaps. He says he directly sent her message and there's no response either way. None..so I do lean to that for obvious thought. She's not appeared elsewhere..still unanswered for me. Thanks though..
Question for Dr. Campbell: How do we "upgrade" our personal protection habits with the new variant of the virus? So how should we change our shopping habits? Can you pls explain how a more infectious virus behaves? Thank you Dr. Campbell for all the education you've given us. Boe Devi
Thank you, Dr. John for taking time on a Sunday for your informative update. My 60-year old brother has been on a ventilator in an ICU since December 7, Covid and complications. On December 16, the Dr. informed the family that they didn't expect him to make it. None of us can be with him. The nursing staff puts the phone next to him so that family members can call and talk to him, even though he is in a medically induced coma. We believe that this is why he is still alive and continuing to fight. Love and blessings to you and your family, you beautiful soul ♥️
I have been watching you since before my government in Canada even had covid on their radar and I will tell you that you both scare and comfort me with your updates. I really appreciate your updates and that you keep it real even if the news isn't good. Thank you! Keep on going and stay safe!!
Not only people being owed an apology, but the media response to the outbreak in Wuhan, seriously downplayed the severity of what was unfolding and gave a false sense of security.
Thank you so much for sharing this, Dr Campbell, and Carly. My sister at the Los Angeles Veterans Hospital got hers a week ago Sunday. I was quite relieved, as she's all along expressed to me much the same feelings as Carly has expressed here on her clip. This is wonderful news for Carly and her family, and well worth the celebration. We're still waiting here in the Netherlands while under severe lockdown as our numbers continue to spike. But it's great news about Oxfam and we're hoping to see any and all vaccines sooner than later!
You may want to look into the phenomenon called "pathogenic priming" before you rush into getting this vaccine. The older you are, the higher the risk.
I'm assuming you're an anti-vaxer and follower of Dr Lyon-Weiler? The Covid-19 vaccines aren't anything like those of Sars; i.e. there's absolutely no evidence supporting a belief that antibody dependent enhancement applies here. P.S. I'm not that old either.
Be relieved on 6th March, NOT before. That's when he will have full protection. Make sure he still masks, even after that date as a courtesy to others.
@@rogerstarkey5390 Yes he should wait till he builds up enough immunity but it appears that with the Pfizer vaccine, that would be on day 28 after the first vaccination, basically a week after the second vaccination so he should be good to go at the end of January not March 6. Keep in mind that the latent antibody immunity will fade in two to three months so by March he would actually have slightly less immunity than he would at the end of January.
Thanks for another great video, unfortunately it seems at the end when you are "showing pictures", only you can see the pictures unless I'm much mistaken!
I think I speak for everyone when I say a huge thank you for your informed information, it’s a comfort to get info from you instead of possibly biased media.
Much love to Kiley & her family. The stress our care workers have been under is so obvious. Prayers that this is the beginning of the end of this virus. 💫
I think that we in the UK should get an apology from the government over the appalling way they have handled this situation. They have shown that they are not fit for purpose.
With hospitals overwhelmed in California, why aren't the military hospital ships being dispatched to Los Angeles again, as they were back in the spring?
"The company enrolled participants for its late-stage trials in December, and will test its vaccine with two different doses. Early results show that a single dose of the Johnson & Johnson vaccine could induce 97% of study participants to make antibodies that effectively neutralized the virus in the laboratory, but clinical studies to see how well the vaccine actually prevents disease are awaited." An Overview of the Johnson & Johnson COVID-19 Vaccine www.verywellhealth.com/johnson-and-johnson-covid-19-vaccine-5093160
Dr. John, they should have begun putting up field hospitals in California. It is not that cold, and the military could probably get them up in a few days, They do it in war time!
@@Scarilianvids yea, his videos are so full of commercials it's astonishing, all that merch he sells (I've got the coffee cup), and the endless Patreon promos..He even has the unmitigated gall to give away free textbooks. What a racket.
@@liamfraserobrien The risk of side effects, some of which are now public knowledge. The self-stated (By Pfizer) that they performed no test on impairement of reproductive capabilities on people who take the vaccine. The self-stated 24 month survelliance period of those who take the vaccine in order to verify any potential long-term side effects. The Bell's Palsy, fainting, heart defects, allergic reactions, etc... All for a virus, which is now tracking at 16 times less deadly than previously in the UK. - Deaths were Twice as many during the first wave - Cases were Eight times lower during the first wave This frankly implies the virus has mutated to be more infectious and less deadly and/or the testing system (mass testing with PCR 3% accurate) is flawed.
Dr Campbell should get a Noble Prize in public health education. He has saved lives and kept us sane
Or at least a health government adviser
I agree! Let’s start a petition. I am sure we all have stories about how he has kept us informed and educated since the beginning of this mess. When the politicians were unclear Dr. Campbell provided me with hope through education💙
100%
I'm sure you mean Nobel Prize ☺ And the category would be "The Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine", as there is no education category ☺
Hes a treasure
Dr Campbell, I have been watching your videos for around two weeks now after one popped up on my UA-cam suggested. I would like to thank you for all your efforts in bringing us up to date and relevant information. It's clear to see that you really care about this situation, and the people that it is affecting. I wish you and your family all the very best of health and I am certainly glad that I found your channel.
There's a north/south divide in California. Los Angeles residents in particular have been misbehaving. I've read that in SoCal, ICU beds have resorted to surge capacity, whereas 34% of ICU beds in NorCal remain available.
Dr. Campbell, my wife and I really appreciate your videos! It is so refreshing to have a data-focused approach. My wife is a nurse (so she explains medical terms and such that I don't understand :) ) and I am an engineer, so your medical, data-driven presentations are much appreciated! A comment regarding the variation in the number of vaccines per bottle. From my many years of manufacturing experience I suspect that variation is due to the inherent variability in any manufacturing process. Over time, no doubt this process will be "dialed in" and the number of vaccines per bottle will become much more consistent. Optimizing a process takes time and the priority was obviously on making the vaccine available, as it should be. Again, love your videos. Thanks!

It was great to hear from you on Boxing Day. Thanks for everything you are doing to support us.
I lost my good friend in march, she died from covid alone in the hospital. This was horrible. We couldn't even be with her, nobody could. It was just horrible.
So horrible for you, my condolences 😰
If it’s any consolation, she would probably have been so medicated that she would have been unaware that she died with nursing staff around her and not family/friends.
Sorry for your loss
That is really tragic. That’s the cruelty of this disease and why I have a hard time dealing with the selfish anti-maskers!
I'm so sorry for your loss. This Pandemic has been a Worldwide tragedy felt on very personal levels. So many are suffering and grieving. We are heading into the end of it. Please try to stay strong and healthy until it is finally over. Best wishes from VT. US
Carly's testimony was very moving. I had a job where every day when I went to work I believed my life was in jeopardy. It was hard and I eventually resigned. I tried to stand up to it by will, but will breaks mind and body. Eventually, I concluded the better part of valor and common sense was that I needed to seek different employment in another field.
Thank you for all this information Dr. Campbell. I am a retired critical care RN in California. I appreciated all this information you give us. I wish more people would watch these videos to get real information! I was unaware of the CDC's delay in testing, thank you for that information! Happy New Year Sir!
Dad died of covid in hospital in April and alone now my mum died on the 2nd of December in a nursing home alone not the ending for my parent’s i could have ever predicted

Thank you. My Mum's a retired nurse in the UK. One of her friends, a nurse currently, is a volunteer in the vaccination programme She says they have all been working incredibly hard to get the vaccine out to as many people as possible as quickly as possible here.
Yeah, once people, start having harmful effects it will bugger up the vaccine programme. The sooner they get loads done, the more that get wiped out.

Thank you Dr John. My only concern is what a pity that the UK Health Agencies cannot see the importance of giving Vitamin D in the correct dose or in giving Vitamin D in the other more rapid form for people in Hospital with Covic-19 when you think how many more lives it could save and when all the evidence is there if they were to look or to do their own studies.
yes there is very little general health advice or direct treatment methods...promoted innthe media or official channels...
itd just about the numbers game....&

I mentioned taking vitamin D when donating blood today, they thought it was a good idea.
Just think, a combination of Vitamin D and Ivermectin could give a 90%+ cure rate in patients admitted to hospital with covid-19 ?!
It will never happen Vitamin D will be discreteded
I think there is a greater benefit to taking vitamin D before coming into contact with SARS-CoV2. So it would be good for you to go with that instinct and make sure that you and your family supplement with it sooner rather than later.
Thankyou again Dr John Campbell, you are a star, your voice is so soothing too. Carly my heart goes out to you, I thank all those on the front line and espeshially those with children to return home to, the stress must be unbearable. God bless you Carly.

I write this with tears in my eyes having watched Carly’s message. A very human aspect to the pandemic and very emotional. Not sure what words to use that reflect how thankful we are to all frontline and essential workers.
The vax for Carly should stop her at least of getting a bad case of the disease. There is no data still regarding one not getting it to some degree and then transmitting it to others or how long it will be effective for. Let's be clear, this is still an emergency issued vaccine that's has been fast tracked.
Everything she is scared about, she should still be scared of.
1) The vaccine does not stop you catching the virus
2) The vaccine does not stop you spreading the virus
3) You are meant to be self-isolating between the vaccine doses
4) The vaccine does have side effects and any individual taking it should not be in a position of exposing themselves to others
Correct front line workers are just amazing health workers postmen lorry drivers shop workers keeping everyone going in their country total stars best wishes from Glasgow
Jesus, emotional? what the hell for I have never seen such a piece of engineered virtue signaling in my life she ought to be in a soap opera! Let's get this right, she's had a vaccine for a disease she has very little chance of getting, if she does get it she would probably not know she even had it. I haven't seen such a display of falsehood like that since Matt Hancock's fake routine, they ought to get together and form a duet.
Very reassuring the medical workers get the vaccine first. Better than watching young and healthy members of Congress in the US posting video of themselves getting vaccinated to `show us the vaccine is safe`.
We as a family (including in laws) here in California have all made the agreement that other then groceries we are all staying home, and we have been since March. We exchanged gifts by driving to the others house and leaving gifts on eachothers doorsteps. We didn't hang Christmas lights or decorations outside, because if you fall off the ladder we were worried we wouldn't get help. I know many are not listening to cautions, but just know some us are very much being careful. Thank you John for your wonderful videos, I always feel edified after viewing them

The delay in the US was due to allow certain congress people diversify their stocks.
There are so many of them that made money. Especially those that bought stock in companies that make PPE stocks. Part of delay in new economic stimulus bill due to M McConnell refusing to sign unless there was provisions so people could not sue individuals or companies whos negligence used death or harm from COVID19. Thus the delays in US. Push in new vaccine probably again due to who owns stocks.

Hey there Dr.John, you're a breath of fresh air on an otherwise down day... thank you, I appreciate all that you have done and continue to do x
Just latching onto this given it needs attention. The person praising the vaccine at 19 minutes into this video has no idea that she still is not safe from the virus. The vaccine does not stop you catching or spreading the virus, you still need to wear the masks, you still need to distance and you should still not visit people outside your bubble. All of her fears are still in play - in fact she's arguably at a higher risk until she gets the second dose and is meant to be self-isolating for a month until she gets the second dose. Instead she's going to endanger herself and others because she's reacting emotionally out of fear rather than understanding the risks of having the vaccine.
@@Scarilianvids I noticed that too. Somebody should tell her it is too early to celebrate before 4 weeks after she gets the 2nd dose.
I would imagine second dose is the killer.

A heartfelt thank you for Carly’s contribution to this mornings update.

@@zaunbeene9757 I reckons nurse Dover is brown bread.
As heartening as it was to hear Carly's experience, it appears that the US has yet to begin vaccinating the most vulnerable people - i.e. the elderly care home residents, who are more than one thousand times more likely to die from a covid infection than the average person, even a healthcare worker. I suspect the UK deathrate will begin to show a more rapid fall as a result of the vaccination of the elderly, who so far have made up THE MAJORITY of vaccinated people. There could not be a clearer indication of societal values. Gandhi once said "the true measure of any society can be found by the way it treats it's most vulnerable members", and by that measure, the US does not rate very highly. There appears to be almost a feeding frenzy amongst healthcare workers for the first doses.
You people are horrible! You try working in a covid ward every day and see how "ott" you'll be! Britts are notoriously placid to the point of being brown bread! Shame on you!
@@1ACL What?
We don't seem to be able to act in an expeditious and efficient way when there's a huge crisis like this one. Next time the virus could be WAY worse and we should take this opportunity as a way to learn from the mistakes and prepare ourselves.
Like lock down borders and have enforced quarantine when necessary and not advisory.
Quarantine in and out of a city used to be very normal. 40 days just waiting to show you have no symptoms before you are allowed into the city.
And this one is pretty sad:

I had to help my 2nd grade nephew with his distance learning last week (his parents are divorced, my brother had to work and asked me to help with the kids on his days that he has them as I am on permanant disability and have no children of my own) and the poor kid couldn't keep his frustration pent up any more and hit his Ipad. I asked if he was having issues with the work and he just screamed "I hate distance learning, I hate stupid working on Ipads, I hate not being in school! I just want to be in school in my class! I hate stupid Covid! Why won't it just go away? "
He broke my heart. I gave him a big hug and just him cry. I wish more people could have something like this, if a dying loved one doesn't get to them, perhaps the frustration of a child who can't understand what's going on will, and get people to do the right thing.
That's a shame dragyn explain to him and have a good chat it must be so difficult for you be positive we will be out of this soon stay strong best wishes to your family greetings from glasgow
I think the impact on children is being underestimated, when someone asked me if I would have the vaccine, my response is that I've had a long and eventful life, I owe it to the youngsters to get this done, so that they can have the same chances as I have. My granddaughter is desperate to go to play school, she's bursting with energy and a sense of adventure, my responsibility is to help make that happen for her and others. The stress on parents is also having an effect on their lives, why would anyone not want to make life enjoyable again.

We will get through this, we will be healthy and happy and life will improve. Telling kids it's going to mess up their whole lives is a dangerous path to take IMHO, but you do you.
I was in The Netherlands at the start of August...the temperaturs were in the 90s...I was talking to a Dutch chap around the hotel swimming pool...he told me he actually knew someone who had been to hospital with Covid...then he asked me...I told he I knew 5 people from where I worked who'd lost loved ones in hospital due to Covid...the youngest a nurse aged 29 that was on national news. I also told him he didn't nor his fellow countrymen and women what was about to come...he asked me what I was on about...I told him that when I was in Amsterdam central no one wore masks...it was like Amsterdam was a Covid free zone, stag and hen parties...the red light district from what I seen as I walked through was very busy...bars and restaurants very busy and around Amsterdamse Bos ( Massive forest next to Schiphol airport) was very busy with North Africans sitting in large groups. Dutch kids playing in paddle pools, teens gathered round in big groups...all swimming in one of the lakes that swimming was allowed. So I told him he didn't have a clue on what was about to happen in The Netherlands....Now he does. I arrived back into the UK on the Tuesday and by 4am on the Saturday anyone arriving from The Netherlands into the UK had to self isolate for 14 days. It doesn't surprise me one bit that The Netherlands have the most cases in Europe.
Yes and the sad thing is that we can be pretty sure almost nobody followed those 14 days isolation rules properly. I myself flew back from Switzerland around early September, there were people in the customs queue laughing and joking about it, many saying things to suggest they were not going to isolate for one moment. Personally I'd like to have seen stronger penalties, but I suspect the UK government have been very worried about civil disorder. I often wonder how people would react if Covid 19 had more open symptoms. If C-19 had symptoms like Ebola people would be barricading themselves in their homes. Perhaps there should be more on television to show people dying in Covid wards. We have horrible pictures on boxes of cigarettes, maybe we should use similar methods to warn people of Covid.
Part of the problem in the UK is thst you can only get a test if you have one of the 3 main symptoms- high temp, new cough or loss of taste/smell. The NHS needs to update the list, especially children show different symptoms.
You are a treasure Doctor, I’ve been watching you since January 2020.... it’s been nearly a year now... I am so grateful to you, I know each video must take a lot of work. There are people all over the world grateful to you. Thank you and greetings from California.
When the first Covid patient in New York City was diagnosed, he had traveled by subway to a hospital where he spend a significant amount of time in the emergency room waiting. The mayor of NYC held a press conference with a CDC "epidemiologist" who said that anybody suspecting to be infected should likewise take public transportation to visit their local hospital and masks, gloves, or even hygiene were not mentioned at all. Contact tracing was not on the agenda either and people were assured that this virus was not airborne and fomites were not a concern even though the Chinese experts were very vocal about the exact opposite. I call that incompetent to the max if not outright mass murder.
Many "experts" all over got it wrong.
Mass murder is an exaggeration, but they should have read about what was happening in China at the time. I did that too. Some Chinese newspapers are displayed online in English, so you could read from day to day what was going on there. Our 'health leaders' should have made themselves aware of everything going on there at the time instead of thinking it was far from us ... and probably would never get here..
Did you hear what Fox news was doing at the time - making a proper joke about it
Dr Mina (Harvard professor of Public Health) explains why Dr John is deadly wrong about massive use of quick self administered antigen tests for infectiousness. Dr John mis represented the facts and is dangerous to trust in this matter. The antigen tests could eliminate the pandemic in a month. Sadly the FDA makes this illegal. It is a crime in the US. Check out for yourself and you will realize we are deliberately being killed by the FDA through their criminalizing the one quick easy solution.

Why are they not getting treated when they catch the virus immediately instead of waiting till they are half dead before they receive treatment !!!!!

@@marymale-bowers5424 Thank you!
I have a friend in Maine who was in hospital for a non-covid reason. He’s still not doing well. He’s also disabled. He needed transport from the small hospital he’s in, local hospital to a larger hospital where his specialists are. However, that hospital is full and full of covid cases so he was denied transport. They said he could be transported tomorrow. But that’s been cancelled and now the larger hospital is transferring their over flow of covid cases to the smaller hospital. He was sent home. No room at the inn. Apparently his health care having a condition and disability is not a priority. It’s awful! And to think many taking up beds he should have access to are those who have been minimizing this pandemic....
Days aren't the same without your updates! A real shining star on these dark nights! Thankyou John, always very much appreciated😁⚘xxxx
And no trollhater contradicted you! Yaaay! Totally agree with you! Be safe!🙏🙏🙏
Not yet.
@@annetteenzoulis4870 be safe too Annette, hopefully we will be able to go back to a normal way of life in April/May🤞as soon as I have the vaccine I can stop shielding😁😁😁Happy New year! So far one troll 🤣😂xxxx
This government shill is spreading misinformation promoting this virus hoax. Anyone that takes an untested RNA vaccine made by corporations that cannot be sued when you have an adverse reaction or die is insane.
PCR created hoax
Thank you for taking the time and effort for making these videos.
Dr Campbell:
After almost a year, you are still updating on a daily basis about COVÏD! Appreciate your conviction, efforts, and compassion. You have used most layman language to explain a complex issue. Thank you for informing and educating the public to protect themselves and others and advocating govs to take actions. If only the western world had listened to your warning, the pandemic could’ve been dealt swiftly in the right direction! It’s just sad and frustrating.
Thank you again!
Ps How do we find your email address?
As a nurse, I too am grateful that I was able to receive the Pfizer vaccine last week, and starve on the team helping make our staff safe.
Blessings Teresa for all you do!!
Hope you see next Christmas.
Hi, I just wanted to ask if your body had any reaction after receiving the Pfizer vaccine since last week?
And did the health official tell you that you have to receive a second dose after several months?
Imagine a vaccine that didn’t prevent you getting the virus or prevent you transmitting it but you still believed them that if you take it you will get your freedoms back.
Did you witness any patients die due to missus of intubation. There are stories that the NHS may be responsible for manslaughter.
Hey dr campbell and viewers. I hope everyone is doing as well as can be expected ✌🏻
Thank you! Stay safe!
Of course we are I just had a lovely walk in woodland no humans about 👍🏻
@@TASIAawful1 Me too, with my lovely old dog!
Happy sunday to you. X
So blessed had my vac last Sunday waiting for the second one I’m feeling positive having good day someday s sad 🙏👏
I live in California. I am in the second largest city in the state and in the county with the second highest population (each second to Los Angeles). According to our local authorities, our ICUs are NOT full and have been going between 16% to 22% availability over the last month. And that's without the normal surge capacity they have available. There are spots that are in crisis, LA and San Bernardino in particular. News sources are questionable at best and our Governor is a piece of work.
I'm in Ontario Canada and my wife (nurse) knows a few docs & nurses in Los Angeles and she said they were reporting the same. That was a few weeks ago though. She said she'd let me know if that's changed when she gets a chance to talk to them.
Zero icu beds here in sandiego..you are mis leading people..2 people dying every ten minutes in LosAngeles..
@@uptick888 BS on the zero ICU beds in SD. We consistently have between 15 - 21% ICU availability according to the SD County Triggers Dashboard.
Hello Dr Campbell as a recent recovering survivor of Covid 19 I found all the info and updates very useful to understand what happened to me and people around the world, I'm a Chinese Latino from Panama and the situation here is delicate also, we are waiting for a Surge in the next 15 days because people want it to celebrate holidays with families hope things get better. Just for you to know I was treated with Remdesivir I consider that allow me to get better and shorten my time in Semi Intensive at hospital. We are in Lockdown in Christmas and New Year.
So happy to know you did well and are on the road of recovery! My son and daughter in law, both RNs, say that their patients are all treated with Remdesivir, Zinc, and Azithromyacin and have recovered well. (Here in the US.) Happy and Healthy New Year to you!
Great to hear you are recovering. Hope everyone around you can be safe too.
Great to see you recovered best wishes from Glasgow scotland
Thank you Guys and Girls
@@TXTeacher1111 please look at Dr Vernon Coleman's site. Especially ' Urgent news from ..... ' thanks.
Thank you for all your work. I like how the panther (or is it a cat?) is changing its mask every day. And how the seasons change behind your window. I'm following since february. Stay healthy dear Dr. Campbell. Many greetings from Germany.
It is a dog called Winston and it is named after Winston Churchill who suffered from depression and called it his "Black Dog". ☺
Thank you 😗
It's a dog named Winston.
@@johmyh14 I knew it was 'the black dog' but not the name or back story... thanks!
A friend of mine just passed away in the hospital (not covid) and her 2 adult children weren’t allowed to see her. I find that heart breaking.
Terrible! 😓
This is so incredibly sad.
The world needs more Dr John !
Carly - so happy for you and your family.. Front line workers have such courage.
Thank you so much Dr. Campbell. Not only do I love the format, clarifications, education but I love listening to you. You are my go to source for covid. Love learning about more than just the US (being Canadian but living in the states.) Thank you so very much. I look forward everyday to your report!
Thank you very much Dr. John ... you have now brought 'the good news' about the Oxford vaccine, because we in the Netherlands are still under tension ... They reported today that 'good news will be coming' about the Oxford vaccin.... but we didn't get to hear just yet what it will be ... so we got a scoop via your channel. Thumbs up and cheers to you!
My mum passed away without any of us with her, we are burying her on Wednesday, broken hearted she didn’t have us with her
So bad, I can't even begin to imagine...
So sorry for your loss, Joanne.
Sending my deepest sympathy to you and your family on your mum’s passing and these very difficult circumstances. God bless you all with comfort, support, encouragement, and the best and sweetest memories of your mum.
John, I have been on the job since 27 January on 3 continents and 5 countries. Loads of what you have done has been amazing helpful. I have noticed far much more drama and your recent shift to become more political and I'm not alone. I have been in medicine 39 plus years and beg you not to go off the rails. Great man, please keep the science real and manageable for all who may click your channel. Remember that we are remembered for our kindness, professionalism and knowledge. Taking jabs at people in power, pharmaceutical companies and the like is below you , sir. Thank you for all the positive work that you have done in all the months we have been fighting at this COVID19 event.
Brilliant as usual thank you Doc John we all appreciate you.
Thank you for your magnificent persistance in everything you do for us.
High quality NIOSH approved N95 masks.
12 months and still the public has not received them.
I understand why Carlie would be emotional & thankful for the vaccine. This has been a rough disease and it's about to get a lot rougher. We're going to have a really rough time soon. I hope the newer variants will create a strain that doesn't cause human illness, especially not an inflammatory response.
Prayers for you from California, Carlie, and to you too, Dr. Campbell!
Perhaps we can all pull together and root for each other worldwide. I think we do, yet the media seems it would like to have people at each other's throats. Unbelievable.
My heart goes out to people and animals worldwide that are affected by this virus.
Everyone take care!
Dr. you are, as always, precise, accurate, informative, professional, heartwarming and showing restraint. Above all, your service to all of us is much appreciated.
You helped me SOOOOOOO much when you first started your videos in March. Thank you for your dedication. You look great!
The dog changed his mask! Good for him!
15:30 -- The CDC did, early on, develop a testing kit for Covid, but the kit didn't work. Many weeks passed before the CDC could develop a replacement test.
I'm a Brazilian who follows your teachings quite some time. I have a sister, Doctor John, and few months (about 3) she started to cough (probably bronquitis) I could hear a stridor. "Funny" thing is: IN THE FIRST HOURS OF the same day, I was reading NHS guidelines about covid -- about the stridor sound, G-od, I will do remember forever; according to the NHS from UK, people hearing such noise just dial 999.
If wasnt the medicine (drugs) knowledge (most of what I know is just memories from my dad; he passed away way before SARS CoV2...) probably my sister, alive and well (I hope meet Doctor John; it is hard to see post covid future of this life of mine in this sad country) if not infected (because BRAZILIAN NHS is very Brazilianistic...) with something really serious, my little Luiza was part of Brazilian biased statistics.
John, you are doing a smash up job, I’ve been listening to you for months. I just wanted to say thank you!
"the more senior people are the less accountability ..." more pearls of Wisdom from John.
Dogphlap SO TRUE!!!!!!
Left from Right, realist vs anti-vaccer, anti-theist vs conspiracy theorists, this we can agree on!
Joe Leonard on Tiffany Dover...many think she died. I'm thinking perhaps. He says he directly sent her message and there's no response either way. None..so I do lean to that for obvious thought. She's not appeared elsewhere..still unanswered for me. Thanks though..
@@margaretneanover3385 Was the is in English or some sort of Scots/Gaelic
So true!!
Question for Dr. Campbell: How do we "upgrade" our personal protection habits with the new variant of the virus? So how should we change our shopping habits? Can you pls explain how a more infectious virus behaves? Thank you Dr. Campbell for all the education you've given us. Boe Devi
Thank you, Dr. John for taking time on a Sunday for your informative update. My 60-year old brother has been on a ventilator in an ICU since December 7, Covid and complications. On December 16, the Dr. informed the family that they didn't expect him to make it. None of us can be with him. The nursing staff puts the phone next to him so that family members can call and talk to him, even though he is in a medically induced coma. We believe that this is why he is still alive and continuing to fight. Love and blessings to you and your family, you beautiful soul ♥️
I hope he pulls through and proves the doctor wrong.
❤
I am so sorry
That must be hard... I'm so sorry. Stay strong and hang in there.
Thank you Dr. Campbell, very loyal to the medical matters and surrounding. God Bless you.
I have been watching you since before my government in Canada even had covid on their radar and I will tell you that you both scare and comfort me with your updates. I really appreciate your updates and that you keep it real even if the news isn't good. Thank you! Keep on going and stay safe!!
Not only people being owed an apology, but the media response to the outbreak in Wuhan, seriously downplayed the severity of what was unfolding and gave a false sense of security.
HAPPY HAPPY SUNDAY DOCTOR as alway,s your a great find for us all thank you
Thank you so much for sharing this, Dr Campbell, and Carly. My sister at the Los Angeles Veterans Hospital got hers a week ago Sunday. I was quite relieved, as she's all along expressed to me much the same feelings as Carly has expressed here on her clip. This is wonderful news for Carly and her family, and well worth the celebration. We're still waiting here in the Netherlands while under severe lockdown as our numbers continue to spike. But it's great news about Oxfam and we're hoping to see any and all vaccines sooner than later!
You may want to look into the phenomenon called "pathogenic priming" before you rush into getting this vaccine. The older you are, the higher the risk.
I'm assuming you're an anti-vaxer and follower of Dr Lyon-Weiler? The Covid-19 vaccines aren't anything like those of Sars; i.e. there's absolutely no evidence supporting a belief that antibody dependent enhancement applies here. P.S. I'm not that old either.
My father is receiving the Pfizer vaccine on the 6th January; I'm not sure which of us will be more relieved.
Be relieved on 6th March, NOT before. That's when he will have full protection. Make sure he still masks, even after that date as a courtesy to others.
Best wishes to your father I'm sure he will be fine my wife had same vaccine 2 weeks ago she had no side affects so all is good greetings from glasgow
@@rogerstarkey5390 Yes he should wait till he builds up enough immunity but it appears that with the Pfizer vaccine, that would be on day 28 after the first vaccination, basically a week after the second vaccination so he should be good to go at the end of January not March 6. Keep in mind that the latent antibody immunity will fade in two to three months so by March he would actually have slightly less immunity than he would at the end of January.
Back it up with high enough Vit☀D *and ivermectin* to protect until his 95% chance of vaccine immunity kicks in!!!
@@rogerstarkey5390 Make sure he still 'masks'? Why?
Thanks for your constancy! We're so lucky to have these kind updates. Keep well and safe, dear Doc.
Thanks for another great video, unfortunately it seems at the end when you are "showing pictures", only you can see the pictures unless I'm much mistaken!
I think I speak for everyone when I say a huge thank you for your informed information, it’s a comfort to get info from you instead of possibly biased media.
Accountability? What about the CNN reporter that said "Don't take the HCQ drug; it can kill you" when in fact it could have saved millions of lives!
When in fact it's been found to be effective only as part of a cocktail of drugs and only early on, in the viral stage.
No it wouldn’t. It’s not effective.
Millions of lives? I thought you whack jobs were saying Covid wasn't real.
Thank you Carli and Dr John for all your help.
You only had one day off Dr John, look after yourself too. Such good news about the Oxford Vaccine.
Much love to Kiley & her family. The stress our care workers have been under is so obvious. Prayers that this is the beginning of the end of this virus. 💫
That message was so moving!!! I am so relieved that she is safe now😊😊😊
Thank's, John. Roll on Summer! Good luck everyone.
I think that we in the UK should get an apology from the government over the appalling way they have handled this situation. They have shown that they are not fit for purpose.
With hospitals overwhelmed in California, why aren't the military hospital ships being dispatched to Los Angeles again, as they were back in the spring?
What is the status with the Johnson and Johnson vaccine?
"The company enrolled participants for its late-stage trials in December, and will test its vaccine with two different doses.
Early results show that a single dose of the Johnson & Johnson vaccine could induce 97% of study participants to make antibodies that effectively neutralized the virus in the laboratory, but clinical studies to see how well the vaccine actually prevents disease are awaited."
An Overview of the Johnson & Johnson COVID-19 Vaccine
www.verywellhealth.com/johnson-and-johnson-covid-19-vaccine-5093160
Dr Mark Porter wrote in the UK Times a few days ago that he'd been involved in administering the vaccine and they were able to do 6 people per vial.
Dr. John, they should have begun putting up field hospitals in California. It is not that cold, and the military could probably get them up in a few days, They do it in war time!
John’s genuine emotion highlights how fake tv presenters are
Both are lying and manipulating you. He monetizes his videos and is basically earning a living off pandemic fear mongering.
What truth?
@@Scarilianvids yea, his videos are so full of commercials it's astonishing, all that merch he sells (I've got the coffee cup),
and the endless Patreon promos..He even has the unmitigated gall to give away free textbooks. What a racket.
@@liamfraserobrien
The risk of side effects, some of which are now public knowledge. The self-stated (By Pfizer) that they performed no test on impairement of reproductive capabilities on people who take the vaccine. The self-stated 24 month survelliance period of those who take the vaccine in order to verify any potential long-term side effects. The Bell's Palsy, fainting, heart defects, allergic reactions, etc...
All for a virus, which is now tracking at 16 times less deadly than previously in the UK.
- Deaths were Twice as many during the first wave
- Cases were Eight times lower during the first wave
This frankly implies the virus has mutated to be more infectious and less deadly and/or the testing system (mass testing with PCR 3% accurate) is flawed.
@@Scarilianvids Oh please shut up you troll why are you watching it then .
Message to Carly: I'd have tears of relief also! That's been a lot of stress to bear for a lot of months.
He is quite a noble gentleman
But the prize is called Nobel
Yay Carly! You go girl !! Much love and respect x
