ALS AND MS SUSPECTED IN WOMAN LATER DIAGNOSED WITH BARTONELLA AND LYME DISEASE

bartonella-lyme-disease

After developing multiple neurologic symptoms following a spider bite, a woman tests positive for Bartonella. Yet, her symptoms are attributed to possible multiple sclerosis (MS) or ALS. Just prior to having hip surgery, additional tests confirm that she is positive not only for Bartonella, but for Lyme disease, as well.

By 

In their article, “Bartonella- and Borrelia-Related Disease Presenting as a Neurological Condition Revealing the Need for Better Diagnostics,” Ericson and colleagues describe the case of a 61-year-old female, who experienced a painful bite while hiking in Minnesota.¹

It was diagnosed as a spider bite because of the two large bite marks present and the painful sensation. One day after the bite, a large blue ring appeared around the bite and the woman developed muscle aches and pains.

The woman was treated with doxycycline for two weeks, which decreased but did not resolve the arthritic pain.

Five months later, her symptoms progressed to include blurry vision, lack of balance, muscle pain, night sweats and insomnia.

At this point, testing for Lyme disease and Bartonella were negative.

After expressing continued concern about having Lyme disease, she was referred to an infectious disease physician, who stated that he “did not believe in persistent Lyme disease.” She was then referred to a neurologist for an MRI.

“At this time, her blood was used in a research study aimed at developing new PCR diagnostic techniques for Bartonella infections,” the authors state.

This new PCR test confirmed the presence of both Bartonella vinsonii and Bartonella henselae.

One year after infection, the patient visited an integrative medicine physician who prescribed clarithromycin and rifampin based on symptoms consistent with a Bartonella infection.

However, her symptoms continued and she was referred to a physical therapist, who prescribed a wheeled walker. Her primary care physician attributed her symptoms to possible ALS or MS.

“She reported to multiple physicians that her hips sounded like popcorn whenever she walked or climbed stairs.”

Hip x-rays revealed a loss of cartilage. She had bilateral hip degeneration, which would require hip replacements.

Prior to surgery, the woman underwent another round of tests for Bartonella. And again, test results confirmed for a second time the presence of Bartonella.

However, in addition, testing revealed “a spirochete-like organism” in a buffy coat smear sample.

“Given her symptomology and the known possibility of co-infections in Lyme disease, the spirochete was suspicious for Borrelia burgdorferi.”

Testing for Lyme disease was positive.

Once the woman began treatment for Lyme disease, her condition improved.

However, “Despite the intermittent use of antibiotics for five years, the patient remains positive for Bartonella henselae and Borrelia burgdorferi.”

If she ceases taking antibiotics, her symptoms recur within 3 months.

Authors Conclude:

  • “This case report illustrates the inadequacy of conventional tests in diagnosing Bartonella spp. infections, and the potential promise of enhanced techniques.”
  • Serology and other antibody-based tests are usually used for Bartonella and Borrelia detection. However, this patient never tested positive through serology but was positive by FISH and PCR testing.
  • “The limitations of serology for detecting an active infection need to be more clearly understood by the medical community.”

**Comment**

Incredible work here, and it’s easy to see why: the funding for it was independently obtained through the Steven & Alexandra Cohen Foundation and all the authors are serious researchers who are not part of the Cabal.  I know three of them personally and Dr. Mozayeni is a widely known and respected LLMD.  This work would NEVER happen in mainstream research which is completely bought out and untrustworthy.  Ericson, whose son had a severe Bartonella infection, continues to do amazing work:   https://madisonarealymesupportgroup.com/2019/02/27/advanced-imaging-found-bartonella-around-pic-line/

This study shows perfectly what patients have been up against for decades: negative serology, coinfection involvement making the CDC definition meaningless, and transmission by other insects and arachnids.

But, nobody will care about this work except patients and the doctors who dare to treat them.

Moderna Scientists Admit mRNA Drugs Have Toxicity Risks & Leaked AstraZeneca Audio Recording

Dr. Yeadon warned about this toxicity over two years ago.

These are “toxic by design”. It cannot be an accident.  ~ Dr. Yeadon

Brave doctors, researchers, embalmers, funeral directors and even paramedics continue to expose what they are seeing, and to implore people not take the mRNA gene-therapy injections.

Strategies to reduce the risks of mRNA drug and vaccine toxicity

Dimitrios Bitounis, Eric Jacquinet, Maximillian A. Rogers & Mansoor M. Amiji

Nature Reviews Drug Discovery (2024)Cite this article

Abstract

mRNA formulated with lipid nanoparticles is a transformative technology that has enabled the rapid development and administration of billions of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) vaccine doses worldwide. However, avoiding unacceptable toxicity with mRNA drugs and vaccines presents challenges. Lipid nanoparticle structural components, production methods, route of administration and proteins produced from complexed mRNAs all present toxicity concerns. Here, we discuss these concerns, specifically how cell tropism and tissue distribution of mRNA and lipid nanoparticles can lead to toxicity, and their possible reactogenicity. We focus on adverse events from mRNA applications for protein replacement and gene editing therapies as well as vaccines, tracing common biochemical and cellular pathways. The potential and limitations of existing models and tools used to screen for on-target efficacy and de-risk off-target toxicity, including in vivo and next-generation in vitro models, are also discussed.

White Clots in Bodies of COVID Jabbed

Dr. John Campell presents data from Major Thomas Haviland’s Worldwide Embalmer Blood Clot Survey:

  • in 2023 embalmers report 20% of corpses had reporting white, rubbery clots
  • in 2022 30% had them
  • in 2021 there were quite a lot, but they didn’t collect a figure
  • in 2020 before the COVID shot rollout, there were very few cases
  • in 2019 none were seen
These clots are new and are not presented in any pathology textbooks.

Campbell asks the important question: Why isn’t this all over mainstream media and the scientific literature?

He also states “We need answers, and we need a moratorium until we get those answers.”

Yet, Bill Gates aka ‘Bat Man,’ is proud of these mRNA clot-shots and continues to peddle them with abandon.

Audio recording leaked from AstraZeneca

Recorded at an internal executive meeting at the end of 2020. This recording has not been published previously anywhere.

SASHA LATYPOVA
FEB 7, 2024
Important Excerpts:

The audio confirms that the DOD pandemic pharma consortium was established in 2017 and the DOD, (not pharmas) was, and remains in charge of it. I knew this based on the covid contracts analysis, but it’s good to have a definitive confirmation. The AZ execs are musing that at the time they thought the DOD’s pandemic preparedness plan – from “discovering” new viruses to making new drugs for them in 60 days – sounded like science fiction. That’s because it is science fiction, even though I am sure most people involved in it believe their own insane delusions. It appears that the DOD money was very green and quickly dulled the skepticism of AZ execs. The CEO of AstraZeneca, Pascal Soirot is on record stating that millions of people in the world cannot be vaccinated by mRNA shots because they have autoimmune conditions and other vulnerabilities. They always knew.  (Go to link for audio, article, and transcript)

Fluoride on Trial: Federal Trial on Neurotoxicity of Water Fluoridation

Brian Berridge, DVM, Ph.D., the former scientific director of the National Toxicology Program (NTP) took the stand on the fourth day of a landmark trial on water fluoridation, despite efforts by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to scuttle his testimony. He testified about the initial findings in the NTP’s draft report linking fluoride to lower IQ in children.

He also spoke with The Defender about the fact that to protect their existing practices public health officials are ignoring the fact that many are exposed to high fluoride levels.  This is also an ongoing problem with vaccines and the fact that to date nobody has tested the accumulation of metals and adjuvants that occurs over time due to multiple vaccines.

Ninety seven percent of Western Europe has rejected water fluoridation.

Plaintiffs Ask Federal Court to Ban Fluoridation Chemicals in Upcoming Ruling

SAN FRANCISCO, CALIFORNIA, U.S.A., January 25, 2024 /EINPresswire.com/ — After nearly four years of delay, a lawsuit in United States federal court seeking to prohibit the addition of fluoridation chemicals to public water systems due to the threat posed by fluoride to the developing brain is set to continue next week, reports the Fluoride Action Network (FAN).

The final phase of the landmark bench trial against the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) over the neurotoxicity of fluoridation chemicals will start on Wednesday, January 31st, 2024. The U.S. District Court, Northern District of California in San Francisco, has set aside nine days (January 31, February 1, 2, 5, 6, 7, 9, 12, 13) for testimony and cross-examination of expert and fact witnesses.

The focus of this final phase will be on the new evidence and science published since the last trial dates held in 2020. This will include the National Toxicology Program’s (NTP) 7-year systematic review of the neurotoxicity of fluoride. Specifically, fluoride’s impact on reducing the IQ of children. The NTP reported that 52 out of 55 fluoride brain studies they looked at found decreases in child IQ associated with an increase in fluoride, a remarkable 95% consistency. Of the 19 studies rated highest quality, 18 found a lowering of IQ. The meta-analysis could not detect any safe exposure, including at levels common from drinking artificially fluoridated water.

The Fluoride Action Network (FAN), a non-profit founded in 2000, is the lead plaintiff in this precedent-setting case, which challenges a practice endorsed by the U.S. Public Health Service 75 years ago and that today affects more than 200 million Americans through water fluoridation systems in thousands of communities. FAN is joined by consumer advocacy groups, Food and Water Watch and Moms Against Fluoridation, public health associations, the American Academy of Environmental Medicine and the International Academy of Oral Medicine and Toxicology, as well as several individuals representing themselves and/or their children. The case is number 17-CV-02162-EMC (KAW), and titled: Food & Water Watch, Inc., et al. v. United States Environmental Protection Agency, et al.

The lawsuit falls under the Toxic Substances Control Act of 1976 (TSCA) which gives EPA the authority to prohibit “the particular use” of a chemical substance if it presents an unreasonable risk to the general public or susceptible subpopulations. The plaintiffs submitted a Citizens Petition under Section 21 of TSCA to the EPA in November 2016 requesting a ban on the addition of fluoridation chemicals to water. When the EPA denied their Petition, they filed suit in federal court.

Click here for a timeline of the lawsuit.

“There’s no question that the weight of the science overwhelmingly shows that fluoride damages the developing brain,” said Stuart Cooper, FAN Executive Director. “This includes a large body of government-funded research indicating that fluoride is neurotoxic, is associated with lowered IQ in children, and a significant increase in ADHD diagnosis and related behaviors in children at doses experienced in fluoridated communities. Experts in toxicology have likened the size of the effect to that of lead.”

Broadcast of Trial

The trial will take place in San Francisco with attorneys from the U.S. Department of Justice, representing the Environmental Protection Agency, and attorneys for the Plaintiffs both attending in person. One of the EPA’s witnesses will testify via deposition video with the remainder testifying in person. All proceedings will also be live streamed daily on the court’s Zoom and recorded and posted publicly on the court’s website as part of the Cameras in the Courtroom program. Exhibits will be displayed electronically at trial and on the live stream to allow for a more efficient display of evidence. The judge said that access to this trial was in the public’s best interests.

Zoom info and official court schedule

Trial days will begin at approximately 8:30 a.m. (Pacific) and end at 1:30 p.m. Each side shall have approximately 18 hours to present their case. This includes opening statements, direct and cross-examinations, and closing arguments.

Cancer, MS, And Repurposed Drugs

For a video that ties much of this together, listen to Dr. Lee Merrit discuss cancer and COVID and the success of anti-parasitic medications.  Go here for a brief summary, but take the time to listen to Merrit.

Lyme/MSIDS patients have already been warned by Dr. McDonald that there is a connection between Lyme and cancer.  Now, with new Turbo cancers on the rise, it’s more important than ever to have effective treatments.  The establishment has essentially failed again in treating this monster and doctors/researchers that have had success are “disappeared.”

Celebrity Beats Stage 4 Cancer with Repurposed Drugs

Fenbendazole Cocktail Gets the Credit

 
JUSTUS R. HOPE
FEB 5, 2024
 
Article Excerpts:

When Captain Kevin Hennings, Florida Keys Fishing Guide to the Stars, contracted Stage 4 Colon Cancer, his world collapsed.

He tells his story to comedian Jim Breuer between fits of laughter about how he went from a televised celebrity to a dying patient, and how he now has become a better person for it.

He shared the dire news with his wife and family, and they supported his decision to undergo the conventional treatments of surgery, radiation, and chemotherapy. While the official 5-year survival rates are around 13%, Kevin fought the cancer like he would fight a military opponent – to beat it.

Unfortunately, sometime in September of 2021, despite three years of grueling chemotherapy, his medical team informed him that he was going to lose the battle. They told him to begin hospice and prepare for the worst, as they had no further treatment options.

His spiritual sister explained that an acquaintance from church had a friend with Stage 4 colon cancer who had opted out of chemotherapy. Instead, he took Fenbendazole, an antiparasitic agent. And she explained, he fully recovered.  (See link for article and interview)

The Probable Infectious Origin of MS

by 1,2 and 1,2,*

NeuroSci 2023, 4(3), 211-234; https://doi.org/10.3390/neurosci4030019
Submission received: 18 July 2023 / Revised: 17 August 2023 / Accepted: 25 August 2023 / Published: 7 September 2023

Abstract

Multiple sclerosis (MS) is an immune inflammatory disease that causes demyelination of the white matter of the central nervous system. It is generally accepted that the etiology of MS is multifactorial and believed to be a complex interplay between genetic susceptibility, environmental factors, and infectious agents. While the exact cause of MS is still unknown, increasing evidence suggests that disease development is the result of interactions between genetically susceptible individuals and the environment that lead to immune dysregulation and CNS inflammation. Genetic factors are not sufficient on their own to cause MS, and environmental factors such as viral infections, smoking, and vitamin D deficiency also play important roles in disease development. Several pathogens have been implicated in the etiology of MS, including Epstein–Barr virus, human herpesvirus 6, varicella-zoster virus, cytomegalovirus, Helicobacter pylori, Chlamydia pneumoniae, and Borrelia burgdorferi. Although vastly different, viruses and bacteria can manipulate host gene expression, causing immune dysregulation, myelin destruction, and neuroinflammation. This review emphasizes the pathogenic triggers that should be considered in MS progression.

Ivermectin Cancer Study Begins

Observing the Effects of Ivermectin on Turbo Cancers

 
JUSTUS R. HOPE
FEB 2, 2024
 

Dr. Harvey Risch, one of the world’s most esteemed epidemiologists, has stated that Turbo Cancers represent a new and different type of condition. For example, Dr. Risch explains that the sudden development of colon cancer in a young person with no known family history means that something completely novel is now happening to cause this.

Dr. Harvey Risch is a Professor Emeritus of Epidemiology at Yale University.

“Cancer as a disease takes a long time to manifest itself from when it starts, from the first cells that go haywire until they grow to be large enough to be diagnosed or to be symptomatic, can take anywhere from two or three years for the blood cancers, like leukemias and lymphomas, to five years for lung cancer, to 20 years for bladder cancer, or 30, 35 years for colon cancer, and so on.”

We know that colon cancers usually take decades to develop and begin with an adenomatous polyp. This polyp slowly undergoes malignant transformation under carcinogenic conditions – which might involve insulin resistance, diabetes, damage to mitochondria, an altered gut microbiome, lack of exercise, and an inflammatory diet. The cancer expands to gradually invade the mucosal wall, and then the surrounding tissues and lymph nodes. By the time this all plays out, the person is usually in their 50s or 60s.

In the rare cases of genetic colon cancer, like Familial Adenomatous Polyposis (FAP) or Hereditary Non-polyposis Colorectal Cancer (HNPCC), it can occur in young people. However, we are now seeing full-blown non-genetic colon cancers develop suddenly in 20, 30 and 40-year-olds in large numbers which is unprecedented.  (See link for article and video)

**Comment**

Dr. Marik has taken the lead in using repurposed drugs which is why he has been heavily censored – especially about ivermectin, a cheap, safe, and effective COVID treatment, which just happens to also be working for cancer.  Go here for more, particularly about the responsive cancer types; however, Ivermectin has shown some degree of anti-cancer effect in every cancer type it has been tested on.

  • Two French researchers found that ivermectin could reverse multidrug resistance in tumors all the way back in 1995.
  • The drug targets tumor stem cells—a driver of cancer tumors and relapses—and promotes cancer death.
  • It enhances the effects of chemo and radiation therapy. It has a broad impact on the immune system, increasing immune offense against cancers.
  • It inhibits cancer cell cycles, helping prevent the formation of new cancer cells.
  • It promotes the killing of cancer cells by inducing mitochondrial stress and prevents cancer survival by preventing new blood vessels, which transport energy and fuel to cancers, from forming near cancer cells.
Dr. Peter P. Lee’s team has begun a clinical trial of ivermectin combined with the immunotherapy drug Pembrolizumab for women with metastatic breast cancer. They have also found ivermectin to be effective against other types of cancer cells. Therefore, additional patients may be included in future trials.  The interaction of the two therapies is a highly complex process dependent on timing, dosage, and drug combinations.

Marik and Dr. Kathleen Ruddy are undertaking an observational study which involves repurposed drugs and metabolic treatments for patients with advanced cancers. Ruddy has observed amazing results using ivermectin against a variety of malignancies. The new study will look at dose, timeline of administration and response to treatment.

Patients will determine the specific repurposed drugs and interventions they want and could include the following with or without traditional cancer treatments:

  • Mebendazole
  • Metformin
  • Vitamin D
  • Fish Oil
  • Curcumin
  • Green Tea
  • Melatonin
  • sunlight
  • overnight fasting
  • a ketogenic diet
  • daily resistance 
  • aerobic exercise

Expect Marik and Ruddy to be vilified as quacks. It’s what Big Pharma and its subsidiaries do to those who dare to color outside the lines. Just remember what they did to ivermectin, HCQ and those who dared to prescribe them:

Winter Ticks Threaten Moose

https://oodmag.com/winter-ticks-threaten-moose/

Winter ticks threaten moose

by Matthew Robbins | January 22, 2024

Across this province and beyond, ticks are an increasingly troublesome reality for sportsmen and women. These little bloodsuckers are more than just annoying — they carry a host of ailments to which outdoor enthusiasts are especially vulnerable. Along much of their southernmost range, moose are struggling to adapt to the growing influence of ticks, and Ontario is no exception.

Tick troubles

By and large, human-tick encounters involve one of two species: the dog tick (aka wood tick) or the black-legged tick (aka deer tick), the latter of which is responsible for a rising incidence of Lyme disease in humans. Despite their increasing prevalence, however, neither of these species appear to be an issue for moose.

Instead, the trouble for our iconic forest-giant comes almost exclusively from Dermacentor albipictus, otherwise known as the winter tick. These pesky parasites are slightly larger than other species of North American ticks and are considered unique for their use of a single host-animal. While most species of tick switch hosts during their various life stages, winter ticks catch a ride on an unsuspecting ungulate as larvae and remain there until the swollen females are ready to drop to the forest floor, lay their eggs, and die.  (See link for article)

______________

**Comment**

Obviously, such a long feeding by upwards of 40,000 ticks on a singular moose will cause severe blood loss, emaciation, and anemia.  

These poor, plagued moose will rub on trees rubbing their hair off leaving them grey earning them the title “ghost moose.”

The article then predictably pushes the ‘climate change’ propaganda, blaming warmer winters for tick explosions, when independent research has shown this notion to be false.  Nobody seems to ever mention our government’s involvement of experimenting and dropping ticks from airplanes.

More specifically, in this link is a 1967 U.S. Army report, on page 600 that shows that ticks were experimentally infected with various pathogens.  For instance, on page 301 Boophilus australis was experimentally infected with murine typhus rickettsia.  Dermacentor albopiotus (the exact winter tick affecting moose) with spotted fever, Dermacentor andersoni with typhus rickettsiae, and so on and so forth.  The link to the army report is conveniently broken (censored) as it incriminates our own government and military.

It’s just easier to blame the climate boogey-man.

Sadly, 90% of moose calves will die due to this blood-letting.
