The SPR Institute was founded in 2016, with the acronym standing for “Swiss Propaganda Research”. It is an independent nonprofit research group, which investigates geopolitical propaganda in Swiss and international media. SPR is composed of independent academics and receives no external funding. Presently, the acronym stands for “Swiss Policy Rersearch”.
I did not find any information about who these academics are: as far as I am concerned, it could be a single person with a good network. Given the politically incorrect character of the research, it is quite understandable that the authors do not wish to be known by name. The information SPR presents is scientifically sound and highly recommendable. Their articles on Covid-19 do not leave a shred of doubt on the political nature of Covid:
- Covid: The Big Picture in 7 Charts
- Facts about Covid-19
- Studies on the lethality of covid-19
- On the treatment of covid-19
- On the effectiveness of face masks
- On post-acute covid-19 (“long covid”)
- On the origin of the new coronavirus
- Why covid-19 is a “strange pandemic”
- The trouble with PCR tests
- On Corona, the Media, and Propaganda
- Vaccines: Successes and Controversies
These studies are analyses, summaries, reviews and overviews of the literature, except the last one, which discusses 15 documentaries. Three nice plots from the first reference are displayed below, and are self-explanatory:
