UK: Lucy Letby – Nurse DID NOT Murder Babies – NHS Cuts and Natural Causes to Blame! (5.2.2025)

The Police should have passed the allegations back to the NHS for these Staff members to be “disciplined” for their continued persecution of Letby. This did not happen and instead the Police decided to independently pursue the case outside of NHS channels. This is how Letby ended-up in prison. Let’s get one thing straight – continued NHS cuts by successive governments since 1979 are killing people throughout the UK. Part of tihis drive to US-style private medicine is the withdrawal of proper and adequate medical care across the spectrum – including the care of babies (if you want to live – you must pay for the privilege). Letby worked in a department that looked after very ill – and already dying – babies. These were not healthy babies. Letby worked at the thin end of the wedge – where all the medical cuts are felt. The UK governments make these cuts knowing full-well people will die – and then blame the NHS Staff – who have to implement these cuts. This is just how Hitler’s regime worked – blame the victim.

The first female clerks, responsible for typewriting invoices and the telephone exchange, were employed in 1885. The new hires may have been surprised to find the company brochure had a dedicated ladies’ section called ‘Matters Feminine’. However, the suffragettes would not have been too impressed with its content. Topics mainly included cooking, family and fashion.

‘It is all very well for a man to smile at the feminine love of clothes, and dismiss them as being of very little importance in life. Women know better. Husbands, who profess not to admire fashions, are not slow to complain at the dowdy appearance of their wives,’ read one passage.

In the following decades, many of the women employed found promotions were very much possible. Anne Edwards, who got a job as a clerical assistant in 1957, wrote: “Brilliant employers, they paid for me to attend Pitman’s College to extend my shorthand skills. They monitored my progress, my typewriting skills and promoted me from junior to manager’s secretary in the same department. I loved working there.”

Speaking about the current influenza in China, Guo, the spokesman, said winter is usually the season with a higher frequency of respiratory infections in the Northern Hemisphere, and influenza viruses are one of the common pathogens.

“At the moment, the scale and intensity of infectious respiratory disease epidemics in China are lower than those of the same period last year,” Guo said.

He emphasized that the Chinese government has always attached great importance to the health of its own people and foreign nationals in China.

In addition to the country’s sentinel surveillance of a wide range of acute respiratory infectious diseases and the publication of the results, China’s experts in disease control have also introduced scientific protective measures on many occasions, he noted.

China also maintains close communication with the WHO to share timely information on respiratory diseases, he added.

It outlines efforts to encourage the setup of memory-related clinics in healthcare institutions and cognitive impairment departments in eligible hospitals, with improved standard for senile dementia diagnosis and treatment.

“Good nursing is crucial for people with Alzheimer’s disease,” said PUMCH doctor Gao Jing, adding that a healthy lifestyle and medication are also important to fight the disease.

To boost the provision of nursing services, the plan also outlines a model integrating home, community and institution-based care for senile dementia, and encourages the construction of caregiving facilities in rural and urban communities.

By 2030, dedicated care units for seniors with dementia will account for 50 percent of elderly care institutions with over 100 beds and adequate services capabilities, and 15 million people will be trained for dementia care, according to the plan.

The campaign sets a precedent for continued progress in public health and offers hope for a future free from cervical cancer for the women of Laos.
