This is kind of immediately on from my post last week suggesting increasing rates of pneumonia and respiratory illness in many places.
From the last comment there (that wasn't mine) was this paragraph:
"I too feel like I'm seeing less of any noticeable increase in people sick with normal things than I am of an increase in what look to me like jab injuries - sudden heart attacks and strokes (some fatal), people dying in their sleep for unclear reasons, rare and/or swift-moving cancers, weird auto-immune stuff that "the doctors can't figure out", that sort of thing."
Then, THEN, DR McM posts this latest Substack piece looking at number of calls to the ambulance service in England regards cardiac or respiratory arrest comparing 2019 to 2024:
Now this is only a five year period and even though our population has got a little bigger and maybe a little older, it shouldn't make that much difference. In fact, if we have had an influx of younger immigrants (we have) and covid has had it's way with some of the older and less healthy, the 2024 figures might be impacted downwards you might think.
Hmmm...
So the headline is the daily number of calls seems to have gone up by around 70% since 2019. That's a shocker in itself...but as DR McM points out, why is no one shouting about this? And why has the baseline figure for 2024 been massaged up so it looks like everything is perfectly normal? What is going on? Who is accountable? Who and what are we scared of?
