History
Totality of Evidence is a website founded by an individual who goes by the pseudonym “Jack.” The site was created to catalog the founder’s journey of discovery regarding the COVID-19 pandemic, vaccine passports, and broader concerns about global control and manipulation through public health policies. The site’s purpose, as stated by Jack, is to serve as a resource compiling significant data points that, when viewed collectively, suggest a systematic approach to establishing global control under the guise of public health. The content is presented as a timeline of events and information, drawing from various global, US, UK, and Australian sources, aiming to support users in conducting their own research.
Although it is not clearly stated, the Totality of Evidence appears to originate from Australia.

Funded by / Ownership
The funding and ownership details of Totality of Evidence are not explicitly mentioned on the website. The site appears to be a personal project of “Jack,” who describes himself as a “Jack of all trades, master of none.” The absence of direct information about funding suggests that the site might be self-funded or operated on a voluntary basis, primarily focused on sharing the founder’s gathered information and perspectives on the COVID-19 pandemic and related issues.
Analysis / Bias
The totality of Evidence exhibits a clear bias towards conspiracy theories and pseudoscience, particularly concerning the COVID-19 pandemic and vaccines. The website’s content suggests a deep mistrust of global health organizations, governments, and the pharmaceutical industry, implicating them in a broad agenda to exert control over the global population through vaccination programs and health passports. The site propagates several unfounded claims and conspiracy theories, including but not limited to:
- The idea that vaccine passports were pre-planned and part of a larger agenda for global control.
- Assertions that vaccines, specifically mRNA vaccines, are tools for broader agendas unrelated to public health.
- Claims of widespread adverse effects from COVID-19 vaccines, which are presented in a manner that suggests underreporting or suppression of information by authorities.
- Suggestions that the response to the COVID-19 pandemic, including lockdowns and vaccine mandates, is part of a concerted effort to manipulate and control the population rather than a public health measure.
The website also promotes Jack’s Substack blog, which features more conspiracy theories and pseudoscience like this CURIOUS!: “The vaccine will be the real killer” states an anonymous “Operative.” Finally, the blog section promotes even more debunked conspiracies and relies on poor sources like Retired Nurse John Campbell, pseudoscientist Dr. Zelenko, and other discredited figures like Dr. Peter McCullough, who routinely publishes disinformation regarding COVID-19 vaccines.
In general, the website’s approach to presenting these claims often involves linking to various sources that support its narrative without providing balanced viewpoints or acknowledging the broad scientific consensus on the safety and efficacy of COVID-19 vaccines. This selective presentation of information and the promotion of debunked theories contribute to a biased and misleading portrayal of the pandemic and related health measures.
