The rise in the use of Do Not Resuscitate orders (DNRs), and the suggestion that patients are being compelled to sign them, or even having them signed on their behalf in secret, has been one of the more concerning narratives to come out of the last year of \u201cpandemic\u201d.<\/p>\n

As early as April of 2020, entirely mainstream publications, such as the Health Service Journal (HSJ), were running articles expressing concern<\/a> over the \u201cunprecedented\u201d rise in \u201cillegal\u201d DNR orders for those with learning disabilities.<\/p>\n

In June 2020 the Independent picked up the story<\/a>, citing some troubling examples found by charity workers and family members:<\/p>\n

In one example, a man in his fifties with sight loss was admitted to hospital after a choking episode and was incorrectly diagnosed with coronavirus. He was discharged the next day with a DNR form giving the reason as his \u201cblindness and severe learning disabilities\u201d [\u2026] Marie-Anne Peters, whose brother Alistair has epilepsy but no other health conditions, overturned a DNR on her brother which included instructions for him not to be taken to hospital.<\/p>\n

The BBC reported that, in Wales, some people were sent letters<\/a> instructing them to sign DNRs, and their families not to call 999 in the event of an emergency. While, in Somerset, Sussex and Derbyshire, autism support groups were sent letters by GP surgeries<\/a> telling them their members had to sign DNR orders.<\/p>\n

As you can see, we\u2019re not talking about people who are severely ill in the least. Autism, sight loss and epilepsy are not conditions that would ever, under normal circumstances, have patients deemed unworthy of receiving life-saving treatment.<\/p>\n

It wasn\u2019t just the ill or disabled who fell victim to this, either. In June last year, it was revealed that \u201cblanket\u201d DNRs<\/a> had been applied to nursing homes by GPs all around the country.<\/p>\n

Other surgeries and hospitals sent out letters to elderly patients, and other \u201cat risk groups\u201d, instructing them they needed to sign DNRs to protect the NHS<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Reported abuse of these \u201cblanket DNRs\u201d lead to an investigation by the Care Quality Commission (CQC), which was published in November 2020<\/a> and, according to the British Medical Journal<\/a>, found:<\/p>\n

Some care home residents were wrongly subjected to decisions ruling out attempts at cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) in the early stages of the covid-19 pandemic, leading to potentially avoidable deaths<\/p>\n

The root cause of this can be traced back to two sets of NHS guidelines, both written and published in the spring of 2020.<\/p>\n

First there was the RCGP Guidance on workload prioritisation during COVID-19<\/a><\/em>, which recommended that doctors \u201cProactively complete Respect\/ DNAR forms [\u2026] in advance of a worsening spread of disease\u201d<\/em>.<\/p>\n

Then came the NICE guidelines for critical care admissions<\/em>, which Dr Vernon Coleman did a video on last summer<\/a>, which suggested doctors:<\/p>\n

Sensitively discuss a possible \u2018do not attempt cardiopulmonary resuscitation\u2019 decision with all adults with capacity and an assessment suggestive of increased frailty<\/p>\n

This was, allegedly, to protect the NHS from the influx of Covid patients and to try and keep ICU beds open. This rush, of course, never materialised, and in 2020 NHS critical care beds were actually emptier than usual<\/a>.<\/p>\n

This policy was not solely isolated to the UK either. The \u201cUndercover Nurse\u201d reported in Perspectives on the Pandemic<\/a>, the hospital she worked at in New York had widespread abuse of the DNR system, and Rosemary Frei wrote an article breaking down the way deaths were \u201ccreated\u201d in Canadian care homes<\/a>.<\/p>\n

So, we know that people have \u2013 in all likelihood \u2013 been allowed to die<\/em> during this pandemic. That has been as good as officially admitted. But does it go further? Are people being actively euthanised?<\/p>\n

Euthanasia has already been hinted at by other whistleblowers, specifically through the use of ventilators on patients who never needed them. (The Undercover Nurse discusses that too).<\/p>\n

It\u2019s certainly true that the use of ventilators was pushed in guidelines from the NHS, CDC, ECDC and WHO as soon as the \u201cpandemic\u201d started. And it\u2019s very probable that this did a lot more harm than good<\/em>, killing huge numbers of patients who may otherwise have survived<\/a> (though obviously it cannot be proven \u2013 at this stage \u2013 that this was deliberate).<\/p>\n

In this June 10th episode of Richie Allen\u2019s podcast, he talks to independent journalist Jacqui Deevoy about the possibility of widespread euthanasia of elderly patients in the NHS during the Covid \u201cpandemic\u201d. They are joined by several people who claim their parents died in as-yet-unexplained circumstances.<\/p>\n
