Open (More or Less) Post on Covid 199

[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 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 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. 

6. Please don't just post bare links without explanation. A sentence or two telling readers what's on the other side of the link is a reasonable courtesy, and if you don't include it, your attempted post will be deleted.

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.

On Topic, Please

Please keep comments on topic, please. This is a forum for discussion of Covid and related issues, not a general health or politics forum!

Take some herbs with you to England, a lot of people are suddenly coming down with a really bad chest infection that last about 5 days, with 2 of those bedridden.
Kind regards

I'll assume that it's Covid, so on topic. ;-)

I carry a biochemic cell salt kit with me whenever I travel. Thanks for the heads up; I've found that bronchial infections like that respond very well to Kali mur. 6x.

"Highly infectious new COVID strain from China that led to massive spike in hospitalizations has spread to the US — including NYC"

This is a headline from yesterday, not March 2020.

I've just recovered from something so bad I went to a doctor for the first time in 15 years. I've seen the new strain of covid described as "razor-throat covid", which is a fair description of what I had. That said, the doctor did an assay for bacteria which came back positive, so she prescribed antibiotics, which helped a lot...so presumably bacterial rather than viral, though whether the assay is any more reliable than a PCR test I couldn't say. But I will definitely say that I felt worse than at any point I can recall over the past decade or 2 (such that I did start to wonder whether it was me or this infection that was going to win this one, until I got hold of some antibiotics), and I see whatever this is spreading locally. I've just ordered some antibiotics from Indiamart, as I think more than anything else, this confirms the covAIDS theory for me. The doctor took my partner's temperature twice and muttered surprised words that she wasn't running a fever (same for me), as if her immune system wasn't recognizing that there was a problem. I will note that huge doses of vitamin C helped me (5g per half hour) until I was stupid enough to think, oh I'm getting better, I'll stop that. 2 days after that I visited the doctor to beg for antibiotics.

I'm un-gene-shotted, if anyone is wondering. I have no idea what I just had, but it was very bad, such that I did wonder if I'd survive...without the antibiotics, I'm not sure.

Glad you turned around. That's an interesting anecdote. Are you based in India?

boccaccio, i'm in the EU, indiamart is just the only place i know to get hold of a stash of antibiotics. the banking system makes it as hard as possible (payments rejected by 3 different processors), but eventually i found a supplier who accepts bitcoin. now i just have to hope i receive the package, rather than a love letter from customs!

other news, the infection has returned. more grist to that covAIDS mill. i did lots of MMS last night which has helped...i'm not feeling too bad right now as i still have some painkillers remaining from the last doctor's visit, but i do find what's going on here slightly terrifying. perhaps i'm just unlucky, my mother died of covid back in 2020 so perhaps there's something to do with my genetics which is making this process hard. prayers sent to Kwan Yin in my case, anyway.

would you like to share where you are reporting from? Which corner of the world?

Same here, started with my youngest having a cough and a lot of mucous, and not long after that, it's me that's coughing. And yes, when it comes, it's a sharp cough that brought the HK description 'Razor-blade throat' to mind. No testing, no doctors, no fever and no clot shot for either. I am recovering somewhat quickly. At this stage in the game, it's infuriating that IVM is still something of an internet buy and not something I can grab from the local pharmacy. My strongest antidote, and this probably makes sense that I hang out here for my bent on 'medicine' is praying to St. Michael. Every hair on my body has been fully raised each meditation session. I'm deep in the blue and the astral here has felt foul, the connection to Holy Michael has been, honestly, the strongest medicine I want, need. I highly recommend, my dose below:

Holy Michael The Archangel,

Defend us in battle, be our safeguard against the wickedness and snares of the devil.

May God rebuke him, we humbly pray; and do you, O Prince of the Heavenly Host, by the power of God,

cast into hell, Satan and all the evil spirits who wander through the world seeking the ruin of souls. Amen.

Beyond this, I just try and get more rest. Whatever this bug is, my body is telling me to sleep it off.

On a lighter note, JMG said; A reminder to all -- this post will be up for the next couple of weeks. I say, we're going LONG COVID people, ba-ding Ching! I'm here all week, and the next and the one after that too.

Safe travels JMG!

I made it a point to memorize this beautiful prayer several months ago, and recite it every night, just because it feels right to do so.

May you be blessed with a full recovery from the bug!

It's known as razor throat in China. It's seems far worse than the original covid, yet my brother and my friend insist it's just a chest infection.
Its hard to believe this is still going on.

"It's known as razor throat in China. It's seems far worse than the original covid, yet my brother and my friend insist it's just a chest infection."

"Even if it is COVID, it's still just a cold."

It makes me laugh that even here opinions as to what's actually going on are so divergent that I think it's fair to say we really have no idea of the reality of the situation. I did see a vid by John Campbell a few days ago looking at excess death stats, where he noted that in countries that used mRNA a lot, we're now in about the 3rd year of 10-30% excess deaths, not to mention that many people are sicker than has been normal. It seems to me that while the gene therapy shots are seriously dangerous, so is covid, but that's a position very few people seem capable of considering.

covid was not terrible, because

all the people who found it terrible already died.

I caught that at the airport this weekend! I noticed coughing at both my departure and arrival airports. I saw a few masks, all of which were worn by older women.

I'm sure I was exposed between Friday evening and Saturday morning. The severe fatigue and cough hit around Sunday evening. The worst of the fever happened early Tuesday morning. It's now Wednesday afternoon the fever is gone, the fatigue is lifting, and the coughing is less violent. I expect I'll be good enough to get back to daily life tomorrow. Even if it is COVID, it's still just a cold.
