I HAVE just returned from the funeral of yet another friend who has died from an explosive cancer for which there was no known risk. He developed several metastases from a melanoma that he never knew he had and for which there was no primary lesion to spread from. His presentation and development, including resistance to a new immunotherapy regimen that is effective in more than 80 per cent of patients, was very similar to two other friends who developed bone metastases at the same time, as well another friend who developed a ‘turbo-charged’ (as his doctor called it) lymphoma.
Only one of the doctors who treated my friends, I was told, asked about their patients’ covid vaccine histories. The one who did was forthright in telling my friend that this was almost certainly the cause as he was seeing dozens of similar cases. Shockingly, all four patients had the boosters only so they could travel overseas and be covered by insurance!
This sad reflection is heightened by the email and text messages I have recently received from my GP telling me ‘to stay safe and get my spring booster’. No waiting list for that. Meanwhile, the NHS has taken two years so far to get me on a waiting list for what was non-urgent surgery but which will soon become so at this rate!
