As this whole fiasco winds down, I'd like to take this opportunity to thank you again for all your hard work in keeping us all up to date with your concise, data driven information. I could not have gotten through these past years without you.

Isn’t it funny how we’re “not allowed” to have a simple cold anymore? Everyone immediately thinks it must be covid! ☹️

My mother told the story when she was pregnant with me her doctor offered her a new drug to help with morning sickness. She didn't take it. The new drug was thalidomide. My mother is my hero.

Thank you Dr. Campbell.
I cannot imagine how difficult it was when you began to see the disturbing anomalies of treatments versus medical evidence as this virus progressed.
I suppose the worst part was realizing that government and medical agencies were actually conspiring together.
Such a heartbreaking thing to watch as I have family members and friends in the medical professionals community as well.
I applaud you sir for openly sharing your realizations and continuing to share the actual information as it has been made available.
You have become a world known medical professional because of your willingness to adjust your position according to the actual data and have received a great deal of criticism for it.
Much respect to you and all those who worked together to share the data as it has become available in spite of the harsh criticisms and threats of punishment.
You, Dr. Campbell, are greatly appreciated!👏👌🤙

Thank you Dr. John for showing us that there are still some medical professionals that have honor.

Dr. John, I had the virus twice, and without you I'm quite sure I wouldn't have fared so well. Thank you so much for your diligence and your bravery in the face of opposition.

Common cold?
What’s that?
Didn’t it die with or from common sense?
Thank you Dr John ❤

I think it's time for you to take a break and focus on some self care. I can't imagine how hard all of this has been on you. Thank you for never giving up on the truth, despite the censorship, and the brain washed nah sayers. Dr. John you have played a strong role in my life throughout this disaster, and you truly are a hero. Sending much love from Canada 🇨🇦

I had Delta, it was nasty, but I got through it and was 65 at the time, husband has comorbidities and he also got through it. Thank you for all your continuing work that makes me feel less alone in this mad world.

Dr. Campbell, I've been watching, and sharing, your informative videos for over a year, and rely on your research and objective views on polarizing topics. Thank you for bringing real science, and data, to us!

I know covid is endemic now but as an older person I would like to still come here for Information involving the senior population with high comabilities. You have given us the best advice and many of us would not be here without the covid Information & advice on your channel. We all owe you a great debt of gratitude. As for myself and my family we will never be able to repay you but do thank you from the bottom of our hearts

[ggjen]

Thank you very much Dr. Campbell for everything you have taught us. I'm from Mexico and have watched your videos since 2020, which helped me and my family to stay safe, we caught the virus this year, as you said one day everyone would test possitive, but if it was until now, I think it was because we were well informed, it would be great to watch your videos with subtitles, so my mom can watch them directly. Best wishes for you and will continue to learn from your channel 😊

[cketts]

Thank you Dr Campbell for all of your sensible, no nonsense, helpful information and advice over the whole pandemic. As someone who needed to shield, it was so reassuring to get your consistent videos to guide us through the information being released. I don’t think you’ll ever really appreciate how much it has meant to so many of us!! THANK YOU! 💚🧡

[thomasmadigan]

Thank you Dr John for being a calm, trusted voice of reason throughout these trying years.

[leevmealone]

Love your work John, watched most of your videos since early 2020, gotta thank you as you helped calm me in the early days when others were causing a lot of anxiety.

[TunneyPhunnyMunney]

Thank you for everything you do Dr John

[SteveBindley]

Thank you for the last 2.5years of information and explanations, John.

[jenniferschneider]

If I get sick with cold like symptoms, I stay home. I don't feel the need to get tested for anything. Thanks for all of your posts Dr Campbell!

[selenian]

My grandson and his girlfriend had a loss of smell and taste a few weeks ago. Both recovered, she had nose congestion and he had no other symptoms. We are in Pennsylvania in the states, the rest of the household was fine. I have severe allergies so I have had no taste or smell for over 20 years, and constant nose congestion. Stay safe and healthy everyone. As always thank you Dr. Campbell!
