  1. Please can you seek an answer to my following query in relationship to your headline article

    https://bit.ly/325sIpG

    Warrington’s Director of Public Health, Thara Raj guarantee our safety, even though she appears to non-medically qualified? and be taking full personal liability should any adverse reactions to the ‘Vaccine’ occur?

    Immunity from prosecution has been granted to the manufacturers of said ‘Vaccine’, therefore I would expect someone to be held responsible should any harm, injury or death occur as a result her guidance?

    Thank you
