Since early November, the BBC and its accomplices have been trying to get the public to fear a “superflu” employing a similar but a played down version of the covid operation. But the public hasn’t fallen for it, more than ever planned a night out on 19 December.
On 20 December, the BBC published an article acknowledging that the “superflu” narrative was false – and the “superflu” has suddenly disappeared.

Some people assumed the “superflu” propaganda in recent weeks was being disseminated ahead of yet another strike being planned by junior doctors in England.
Whatever the reason, the British public didn’t fall for it. Some on social media met stories about a “superflu” with ridicule and others took the view that it was an attempt at a rerun of the covid operation, but what is evident is that, each for their own reasons, the British public chose to ignore it.
A survey conducted by taxi company Veezu found that 34% of people surveyed said they planned on going out on Mad Friday, one of the names given to the last Friday before Christmas, when revellers let their hair down by painting the town (Christmas) red. The company’s data showed over half a million more Brits were set to party the night away this year.
On Monday, Tom Jefferson and Carl Heneghan published an article summarising the “superflu” story so far. Since early October, the two researchers had been warning that the government-media conglomerate was preparing to declare another public health emergency.
“Large stocks of vaccines and antivirals were purchased and renewed and are awaiting use. The avian influenza terror did not [take off] … As early as the 6th of November, the recently appointed Sir Jim Mackey warned the UK was facing a long, tough flu season. Delivered through the BBC, of course,” they wrote. “Then we had the ‘carnage’ and ‘superflu’ with an ambulance and bed crisis, which did not fit with the government’s own data.”
Commenting on Jefferson and Heneghan’s article, Helen McArdle pointed out the contradictions between statements made by “experts” in an article the BBC published on 9 November and statements made by the same “experts” in an article the BBC published 5 weeks later, on 20 December.
The BBC “Superflu” Contradiction
By Carl Heneghan and Tom Jefferson, as published by Trust the Evidence (“TTE”)
In response to the “Superflu” story, Helen McArdle pointed out the stark contradiction between the BBC’s position and its commentators on the 9th of November and the 20th of December.
1. James Gallagher, Health and science correspondent forBBC News:
9th November: New flu virus mutation could see “worst season in a decade.” These are not covid-style lockdowns, but short-term measures the country uses to disrupt the spread of the virus.
20th December: But a “broadly typical flu season” is probably not the sense you’d get from watching or reading the news. Statistical artistry was used to compare an early flu season to one that started much later, allowing claims of flu cases being “an incredible 10 times higher” than in 2023.
2. Prof Chris Fraser, Pandemic Sciences Institute at the University of Oxford:
9th November:“It’s highly likely it’s going to be a bad flu season, and it’s going to happen quite soon – we’re already well into it … There are indicators that this could be worse than some of the flu seasons we’ve seen in the last 10 years.
20th December: “It was basically spreading at a very similar speed to previous years, it was towards the upper end, but it wasn’t an outlier …I don’t think it’s a helpful term, there isn’t a particularly unusual set of symptoms, there’s no indication of it being associated with exceptional severity, exceptionally rapid spread or exceptional health impact.”
3. Prof Nicola Lewis, the director of the World Influenza Centre at the Francis Crick Institute
9th November: “We haven’t seen a virus like this for a while, these dynamicsare unusual … It does concern me, absolutely,” she adds. “I’m not panicking, but I am worried … We’re miles ahead,” says Prof Lewis. “I think it’s going to be a strong flu season …H3 is always a hotter virus, it’s a nastier virus, it’s more impactful on the population.”
20th December: the virus was “not particularly unusual” and that she saw “no evidence” the virus was “particularly different” and superflu “wouldn’t be my description.”
“Meanwhile, NHS hospitals are still requiring staff to wear masks, with all the predictable adverse effects on dementia patients. Absolutely shameless reporting, as if there are no consequences of irresponsible fear messaging other than they’ve twigged that this particular strategy might backfire if overused,” commented Helen McArdle. Indeed, Helen, why let the facts get in the way of a good story?
