"“As I was watching blue and red lights flashing on the screen, I felt my body becoming tense. I do not remember what happened afterwards.”"

It's a really, really good link! Apparently a majority of the kids that went to hospital did so after the event, ie, after they learned others had gone - and thus, it presents as a real Mass Hysteria. Who could have known that flashing blue/red lights at 12Hz could be so powerful.

just when I thought 'the guardian' had absolutely nothing to offer humanity...

"... If nothing else, the attendees of Davos should shut it down out of pure self-interest. They’re making everyone mad.

But it is in the peculiar nature of bubbles that those inside will never know what they don’t know. Convincing Davos Man that his milieu is poisonous is as impossible as.."

"...The only useful thing that happens at Davos each year is the release of Oxfam’s report on economic inequality, a document that always drives home exactly why Davos is a monstrosity. This year, Oxfam found that the richest 1% of people had pocketed two-thirds of all the wealth created in the past two years. Many of those same people digested this news with equanimity in a nice warm chalet, before heading off to make proclamations on a Davos panel. The rest of the world simmers. The rage of the lower classes compounds. Some will go fascist, and some will go socialist, and some will just buy guns and bide their time..."

A perfect example of the stupidity of antivaxxers. Some people who I have never met, who are also part of the Australian Centre for Nanomedicine are doing research on mRNA vaccines. Therefore, I have an ulterior motive. Only problem with the conspiracy is I am now retired.
