The employee tells the caller that the GGD does not specifically test for the omicron variant of corona and therefore does not know how it spreads. Nevertheless, measures are being taken. According to the GGD, this is because the variant is intended to scare people into taking the booster. “Weird, huh?”
In addition, the employee denounces the support packages, which, according to him, are nothing. The caller also remembers that ‘there is something about the sticks that we have to get in the nose during those tests. Or am I a doomsayer?’ The response of the GGD employee: “In any case, it is well thought out. You have to keep doing that yourself. Intuition is important, as is your own compass.”
No vaccine
The GGD says not to be vaccinated. He relies on his own immune system, he says. “Do good research, don’t follow what the media says.”
The video has also reached GGD Drenthe. The spokesperson says that at first they thought it was a fake film. But it turns out to have been a call center employee (so not a doctor or other medically trained staff).
For more information, she refers to the statement on the GGD website. In that statement, Hans Kox, director of public health GGD Drenthe, distances himself from the statements of his employee.
Response GGD Drenthe
“This is clearly not what you can expect from an employee of GGD Drenthe. We are a professional organization that provides reliable information. We take this very seriously and are investigating how this happened. Of course we take appropriate measures and we want to learn from this, to prevent this in the future.”
