A global declaration titled “The Great Barrington Declaration” was made by infectious disease epidemiologists and public health scientists and is being circulated because of “grave concerns about the damaging physical and mental health impacts of the prevailing COVID-19 policies” states their website, gbdeclaration.org. Since its publication roughly six weeks ago, nearly 700,000 signatures “from scientists, academics, doctors and citizens worldwide” have signed the statement, “with more signatories being added each day as a spate of lockdowns continues across Europe and parts of the United States” reports Just the News.
