Coronavirus: 'Off-grid' mother's tirade against NHS staff

Adele Allen, her husband Matt, and three young children Ulysses, Ostara, and Kai, live in a terraced home in Brighton.

They keep work to a minimum, do not believe in vaccines, using the NHS, or following the national curriculum.

In a tirade against NHS staff, she said they should not be putting people on ventilators, are wrongfully putting coronavirus on death certificates, and are posting "dance videos" on social media for "yet more attention and applause".

In a Facebook post criticising the healthcare staff yesterday, the mother-of-three said: "if you think these are the qualifications of 'heroes' who deserve national worship, think again".

She said: "Our family do not clap for the NHS, here’s why...

"I am very pro NHS, so please don't beat me up about this, I know from some people who work at the NHS in hospitals, that they're not allowed to speak to the media about Covid-19 and what's happening in hospitals. That rings alarm bells for me.

"The NHS staff are routinely putting Covid patients on ventilators, which have been identified by numerous high-ranking whistleblower doctors as the perilously wrong treatment. The aggressive, invasive intubations of the ventilation process traumatise the lungs and induce heart arrhythmias. Most ventilated patients die.

"The NHS staff are also putting Covid 19 on death certificates when people died of other conditions; when they haven't been tested for it, and against the express wishes of the patient's families.

"Rather than expressing sensitivity and compassion that most of the country's lives have been thrown into catastrophe and ruin (unlike their own), and that chronically ill people are being turned away from empty hospitals and denied crucial treatments, many NHS staff choose, instead, to make dance videos, and load them onto social media, looking for yet more attention and applause.

"If you think these are the qualifications of "heroes" who deserve national worship, think again."

In December, Adele's husband Matt, who previously admitted that work is "not in his psyche", revealed he's using his housing benefit to build an “off-grid”home.

The family have caused controversy in the past for saying they let all three children co-sleep with them, decide what they want to eat, and have no fixed bedtime, as well as shunning mainstream medicine and vaccinations.

In 2016, the family caused a storm on This Morning when daughter Ostara, then one, urinated on the set of the programme while the family were being interviewed, prompting some viewers to call social services about their parenting style.

Last month, a hush spread across homes in the city as thousands held a minute of silence to remember those who have lost their lives to coronavirus.

At 11am on April 28, people throughout Brighton and Hove took a moment to commemorate the incredible contributions of key workers in the fight against the virus.

They also paid tribute to those who have died during the global pandemic, with more than 100 NHS and care staff having fallen victim to the relentless illness.

Ventilators are used in the treatment of patients suffering from coronavirus.

The virus causes damage to the lungs in severe cases, making it harder for the patient to breathe, and fluid may enter the lungs.

The devices take over a patient's breathing function while they are sedated, pushing air into the lungs.

They are used to give the patient time to fight the infection and recover.

Government guidelines state Covid-19 is an "acceptable direct or underlying cause of death" on a death certificate.

It states that "'It would be satisfactory' to give Covid-19 as the cause of death even if it is only suspected and no confirmed test results are available."

The guidance also states a medical practitioner can fill in the certificate with these details if they can "state the cause of death to the best of their knowledge and belief".
