Exposing Britain’s Nightingale Hospital Scandal
In Britain the government and media told the public that the National Health Service (NHS) has been overwhelmed to the point of breaking due to high numbers of COVID cases. To ease the pressure a series of expensive temporary hospitals was created across country.
This article shows those emergency hospitals received few if any patients thus showing thre NHS is far from being in crisis.
In London, Mayor Sadiq Khan has now declared a “Major Incident” and say the pandemic is “out of control.” The mainstream media are predictably ramping up the alarmist hype based on the usual junk science beloved by politicians.
But London’s Nightingale hospital at the ExCeL will have just 300 of its 4,000 beds in use when it reopens next week.
At the start of the ‘pandemic’, seven emergency makeshift hospitals were created around the UK, to deal with the expected large number of patients requiring specialist care. This was done in response to Neil Ferguson’s computer model that predicted up to half a million deaths.
Just as a point of interest, here is Neil Ferguson’s resume:
They were christened Nightingale Hospitals in recognition of Florence Nightingale, the English social reformer, statistician and founder of modern nursing. The first two were opened in March; London and Manchester, followed by Sunderland, Exeter, Birmingham, Bristol and Harrogate in late March and early April.
The cost of creating and equipping these seven Nightingale Hospitals was £220 million.
This is a breakdown of the seven facilities.
NHS Nightingale Hospital London
- Announced: March 24
- Opened: April 3 (by Prince Charles)
- Closed: May 15 after treating just 54 patients
Health bosses are in the process of stripping the London Nightingale of its 4,000 beds, ventilators and even signs.
NHS Nightingale Hospital Birmingham
- Announced: March 27
- Opened: April 16 (by Prince William)
- Down to standby: May 5
The Birmingham Nightingale, which was erected inside the large halls of the National Exhibition Centre in Solihull, at a cost of £66 million, has 496 beds divided into four wards, which can rapidly increase to 800 beds if needed. If the entire NEC were converted, it could house some 4000 patients.
It has not seen a single patient.
The Minister of State for Health; Edward Agar recently said it
“…remains on standby ready to play whatever role is needed in the months to come.”
NHS Nightingale Hospital North West
- Announced: March 27
- Opened: April 17 (by the Duchess of Cornwall)
- Closed: June 5 after treating zero patients
- Back on standby: October 12
NHS Nightingale Hospital Yorkshire and the Humber
- Announced: April 3
- Opened: April 21 (virtually by Captain Tom Moore)
- Radiology outpatient clinic: June 4 after treating zero patients
- Back on standby: October 12
NHS Nightingale Hospital North East
- Announced: April 10
- Opened: May 5 (by Matt Hancock)
- Down to standby: October 12 after treating zero patients
NHS Nightingale Hospital Bristol
- Announced: April 3
- Opened: April 27 (by Matt Hancock & Prince Edward)
- Down to standby: July 6 after treating zero patients
NHS Nightingale Hospital Exeter
- Announced: April 10
- Opened in standby: July 8
- First Covid patients: November 26
An article on the bylinetimes website in mid-December said: It has been noted that although the hospitals increased bed capacity, the NHS lacked the resources – namely staff – to make use of them. The website NursingNotes, for example, highlights that there are currently 43,000 nursing vacancies in England alone. “Why do we allow politicians to gaslight us into thinking that we can just put some prefabricated units together and call it a hospital?” Anthony Johnson, lead organiser for the grassroots group Nurses United UK told the website. “To have a hospital you need staff.” (Emphasis added)
NHS bosses have said their staff must start receiving the vaccine urgently because so many are off sick.
‘Official’ figures show large numbers of NHS staff are currently self-isolating or sick, with the most recent figures suggesting around 85,000 were off sick, with just 32,000 of those off or self-isolating for Covid-related reasons.
Some hospitals have hundreds of staff not at work at the moment, while others are allegedly asking them to give up pre-booked Christmas holidays or offer cash incentives to volunteers.
An article in the Daily Mail on December 29th said: The Government has continually pushed a narrative that the NHS must be protected throughout the pandemic, with doctors saying there were more than 100,000 unfilled staff vacancies before the crisis even began. Labour have claimed that the NHS is now ‘trying to cope on the back of years of Tory cutbacks and understaffing.’
There have even been calls to employ some of the 90,000 student nurses and teaching staff across 84 UK university nursing departments to work at the Nightingale hospitals to help fill in the gap.
Manchester’s Nightingale is open, treating non-Covid patients, while Exeter and Harrogate’s in North Yorkshire are being used as ‘specialist diagnostics centres’ and Bristol’s for ‘local NHS services’.

Questions have been asked, and are still being asked, whether this huge expense was a good use of money and precious resources it for the very small number of patients who required its services. But even more important, the above evidence undermines the prevailing narrative that the UK (or other nations) has really been gripped by a deadly pandemic.

Same thing in Prague. A temporary hospital has been set up. It hasn’t treated a single patient. Total scam.

I am curious as to what type of testing was used during foot and mouth, mad cow disease, bird flu and swine flu. PCR?
Excellent article Andy, thanks.

Somehow all those NHS staff who are ‘off sick’ I believe have probably had a positive test rather than any symptoms of illness. If it spread as easily from asymptomatic people as we’re being led to believe, everyone I know would have been ill by now. I’ve heard of a couple of people who had flu-like symptoms for a few days, but no-one has died. Stop testing people who aren’t ill and the problem will go away. Failing that, stop paying people to stay off work after being tested. Then I GUARANTEE the problem will go away.

I agree with you completely Linden. Stop the testing and it goes away.

The Imperial College/Ferguson model used during the Foot and Mouth fiasco resulted in the 3km Cull, Slaughter on Suspicion and Dangerous Contact policies. The 3km cull policy was latterly found to be illegal.
There was also a Compulsory Cull Policy whereby Farmers were threatened by DEFRA that if they did not take all their healthy sheep to Great Orton to be slaughtered, then DEFRA would come to the farm and slaughter ALL the healthy stock on the farm , cloven footed animals (Cattle, Pigs and Sheep) and be charged for the service!
The Meat and Livestock Commission estimated that 13 Million animals were slaughtered during FMD 2001, and it is worth noting that those figures did not include Calves, Piglets and Lambs at foot. The travellator at Great Orton ran 16 hours a day delivering brutally slaughtered Lambs to their graves. There were only 3 confirmed cases of FMD, 2 were very mild, recorded at Great Orton during the Compulsory Cull.
DEFRA’s own figures confirm that over 88% of all the animals slaughtered during the catastrophic FMD policy of 2001 were infected with FMD. The economies in many effected areas was destroyed, Farming suicides occurred, massive long lasting respiratory problems abounded due to The Pyres, Schools were shut down and communities were torn apart.
Sound familiar??

Just exactly how was anyone in their right minds listening to Neil “Doomsayer” Ferguson after his repeated costly errors of the last two decades. This man’s dodgy mathematics and GIGO computer models contributed to the largely unnecessary agricultural apocalypse during the foot and mouth outbreak.
Anyone who tells us that we must listen to “the science” (ideology) and trust in the experts need to be introduced to the illustrious career of the great Neil Ferguson. That’s before we mention the hockey stick Mann and good old Tim “can’t predict anything” Flannery down under.
While it is prudent for government to look for genuine independent expert advice, we are far far away from that now. Government and the media portray these experts like they are some sort of infallible high priests, when these experts are often biased, corrupt or simply just wrong. We are not allowed to question their scriptures and are punished or censored if we do.
