Open (More or Less) Post on Covid 162

[ecosophia]

We are now in the fourth year of these open posts. When I first posted a tentative hypothesis on the course of the Covid phenomenon, I had no idea that discussion on the subject would still be necessary more than three years later, much less that it would turn into so lively, complex, and troubling a conversation. Still, here we are. Crude death rates and other measures of collapsing public health are anomalously high in many countries, but nobody in authority wants to talk about the inadequately tested experimental Covid injections that are the most likely cause; public health authorities government shills for the pharmaceutical industry are still trying to push through laws that will allow them to force vaccinations on anyone they want; public trust in science is collapsing; and the story continues to unfold.

So it's time for another open post. The rules have been slightly modified: 

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 and its government enablers are causing injury and death on a massive scale. 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 wholly owned 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 plan on making off topic comments, please go away. This is an open post for discussion of the Covid epidemic, the vaccines, drugs, policies, and other measures that supposedly treat it, and other topics directly relevant to those things. It is not a place for general discussion of unrelated topics. Nor is it a place to ask for medical advice; giving such advice, unless you're a licensed health care provider, legally counts as practicing medicine without a license and is a crime in the US. Don't even go there.

5. 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, religions, etc. No, I don't care if you disagree with that: my journal, my rules. 

Please also note that nothing posted here should be construed as medical advice, which neither I nor the commentariat (excepting those who are licensed medical providers) are qualified to give. Please take your medical questions to the licensed professional provider of your choice.

With that said, the floor is open for discussion.

From one of the studies done during the first year or two of the coof era, a moderate to severe coof infection would result in depleted T-cells for 3 to 6 months. No graduation between vexed and unvexed for that study if I recall correctly. I would assume unvexed would be up to 3 months of vulnerability.

As mentioned before, Niacin (flush version) does a lot of good things.. it just pushes energy through the body and since my mom's last turbo-cancer episode, I have put her on 500mg Niacin daily, taken with lunch. The body can use that to rebuild the T-cell count faster... take note that the recommended daily amount is like 16-18mg... (same pattern as the Vit D recommendation which is ridiculously low which has the end result of keeping people unhealthy). Most of us are on 1000mg per day... the active kids do 2000mg... and on days where intense training is planned, 3000mg.

Having your own blood sugar testing kit at home is a very useful tool. It can tell you when metabolic dysfunction is starting up (from shedding, illness etc). Track your baseline numbers, and then deviations from that can tell you a lot. Heck, a serious marathoner friend was checking his blood sugar every 5min as he took in different energy drinks / gells to see how quickly his body was able to process the energy input. It's also cheap, with each test strip being like $0.20 or less.

So anyways, if you are taking too much Niacin, over time your blood sugar numbers will start to climb - that's a sign that you're trying to push too much energy through the body and insulin sensitivity is dropping. Personally I go up to 3500mg for a few days at a time to heal from serious injuries (e.g. achilles tear).. and once I go back down to 1000mg, the blood sugar numbers normalize within a day or two. So it's not a permanent condition, and I've been personally doing high Niacin for over 2 years now.

The other useful home diagnostic tool is the blood pressure monitor. Once you have your baseline numbers, any prolonged deviations gives a indication that something is 'off' and what the likely problem is. Together with the blood sugar test kit, we have relatively cheap and easy ways to suss out issues before they become bigger issues.

Thanks for the tips and sharing your experiences with various doses. I remember seeing a clip by dr Schultz who joked that when he had a clinic and treated people with herbal extracts, he tried to kill his patients with high doses but never succeeded.

I have a blood pressure monitor, but a blood sugar testing kit seems like an useful and inexpensive addition.
