Open (More or Less) Post on Covid 66

[ecosophia]

As we proceed through the second year of these open posts, it's pretty clear that the official narrative is cracking as the toll of deaths and injuries from the Covid vaccines rises steadily and the vaccines themselves demonstrate their total uselesness at preventing Covid infection or transmission. It's still important to keep watch over the mis-, mal- and nonfeasance of our self-proclaimed health gruppenfuehrers, and the disastrous results of the Covid mania, but I think it's also time to begin thinking about what might be possible as the existing medical industry reels under the impact of its own self-inflicted injuries. 

So it's time for another open post. The rules are the same as before: 

1. If you plan on parroting the party line of the medical industry and its paid shills, please go away. This is a place for people to talk openly, honestly, and freely about their concerns that the party line in question is dangerously flawed and that actions being pushed by the medical industry et al. are causing injury and death. It is not a place for you to dismiss those concerns. Anyone who wants to hear the official story and the arguments in favor of it can find those on hundreds of thousands of websites.

2. If you plan on insisting that the current situation is the result of a deliberate plot by some villainous group of people or other, please go away. There are tens of thousands of websites currently rehashing various conspiracy theories about the Covid-19 outbreak and the vaccines. This is not one of them. What we're exploring is the likelihood that what's going on is the product of the same arrogance, incompetence, and corruption that the medical industry and its tame politicians have displayed so abundantly in recent decades. That possibility deserves a space of its own for discussion, and that's what we're doing here. 
 
3. If you plan on using rent-a-troll derailing or disruption tactics, please go away. I'm quite familiar with the standard tactics used by troll farms to disrupt online forums, and am ready, willing, and able -- and in fact quite eager -- to ban people permanently for engaging in them here. Oh, and I also lurk on other Covid-19 vaccine skeptic blogs, so I'm likely to notice when the same posts are showing up on more than one venue. 

4. If you don't believe in treating people with common courtesy, please go away. I have, and enforce, a strict courtesy policy on my blogs and online forums, and this is no exception. The sort of schoolyard bullying that takes place on so many other internet forums will get you deleted and banned here. Also, please don't drag in current quarrels about sex, race, religious, etc. No, I don't care if you disagree with that: my journal, my rules. 

With that said, the floor is open for discussion.

My $.02:

There's probably something to that. But at the same time, it's not a death sentence. My own mother is both overweight (not morbidly) and insulin-dependent T2, and over seventy. Had COVID, got over it. Doing fine.

I'd bet that even among that unhealthy subgroup, death rates are not particularly high. Just a lot higher than other groups.

Covid + REMDESIVIR = blown out organs that are already struggling.

And many of the patients left in covid isolation were not only neglected, but they developed bacterial pneumonia, for which they received no treatment!!

Covid aside-- if you take your average elderly pneumonia patient, abandon them alone in their bed with no antibiotics and no one checking to see that they are moving, never mind adequately hydrated or getting enough nutrition for several days... et voilà, big $$$ for a "covid" death for the hospital.

Remdevisir made it all the more remunerative.

It might also be related to how well-controlled the diabetes is. People with well-managed blood sugar may do okay, but there are enough people with poorly-managed blood sugar (like the un-diagnosed diabetic kid in that article) that it might be a factor. One of my parents lived for decades with well-managed diabetes, but I've known people who died very young from diabetic complications.

Exactly so. I didn't dig into the CDC data myself, but I was greatly hearted by a Chris Martenson vid earlier this year, I think. One of the explicit conclusions he drew from a big CDC data dump: it's not diabetes itself that's associated a higher risk of Covid death or complications. It's **poorly managed** diabetes.

I've had type1 diabetes for over 50 years. I never got Covid at all, knock wood.
