Naled Causes Microcephaly

Naled (trade name Dibrom), is being sprayed over Miami.  According to nospray.org not only is it the least effective mosquito control measure, it actually can cause the microcephaly they claim Zika causes.  Again, for those just tuning in, please read:  https://madisonarealymesupportgroup.com/2016/03/08/fixation-on-zikapolio/

http://nospray.org/naled-insecticide-fact-sheet/  “The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has written that “adulticiding, application of chemicals to kill adult mosquitoes by ground or aerial applications, is usually the least efficient mosquito control technique.

Naled is no exception. For example, researchers from the New York Department of Health showed that 11 years of naled spraying was “successful in achieving short-term reductions in mosquito abundance, but populations of the disease-carrying mosquito of concern “increased 15-fold over the 11 years of spraying.

Like all organophosphates, naled is toxic to the nervous system. Symptoms of exposure include headaches, nausea, and diarrhea. Naled is more toxic when exposure occurs by breathing contaminated air than through other kinds of exposure. In laboratory tests, naled exposure caused increased aggressiveness and a deterioration of memory and learning.

Special Susceptibility

Malnourished individuals may be particularly susceptible to naled poisoning. Researchers from the Institute of Hygiene and Occupational Health (Bulgaria) studied naled’s effects on rats that were fed a low-protein diet and found that naled was almost twice as toxic to them as it was to rats fed a normal diet. In addition, the rats fed a low-protein diet developed liver damage from their naled exposure.

Naled’s breakdown product DICHLORVOS (another organophosphate insecticide) interferes with prenatal brain development. In laboratory animals, exposure for just 3 days during pregnancy when the brain is growing quickly reduced brain size 15 percent.  https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8065512 

DICHLORVOS also causes cancer, according to the International Agency for Research on Carcinogens. In laboratory tests, it caused leukemia and pancreatic cancer. Two independent studies have shown that children exposed to household “no-pest” strips containing dichlorvos have a higher incidence of brain cancer than unexposed children.

Aerial applications of naled can drift up to one-half mile. According to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, naled is moderately to highly toxic to birds and fish. It also reduced egg production and hatching success in tests with birds and reduced growth in tests with juvenile fish. convulsions, paralysis, and death.”

The nospray.org website above has much more on Naled than I copied here.  Please see the website for details.

https://www.sott.net/article/324189-For-your-Zika-protection-Florida-to-spray-neighborhoods-with-microcephaly-causing-insecticide  “As Activist Post’s Bernie Suarez has previously reported, it still has not been proven that microcephaly — a birth defect that causes babies to be born with abnormally small heads and the new big concern from zika — is even officially caused by zika.  All evidence thus far is entirely circumstantial, as even Director-General Maraget Chan of the World Health Organization has gone on the record to state. In fact, decades of scientific literature show zika is largely benign…. Could this have anything to do with the fact that the GM mosquitoes purposefully released over Florida to combat Dengue fever aren’t dying off the way they were supposed to?”

https://www.sott.net/article/311265-Could-there-be-a-link-between-the-release-of-genetically-modified-mosquitoes-and-the-Zika-virus  The possible mosquito in the ointment (pun intended) could be the involvement of tetracycline.  The actual mechanism that kills larvae only works if tetracycline is not present during its development.  

“According to an unclassified document from the Trade and Agriculture Directorate Committee for Agriculture dated February 2015, Brazil is the third largest in “global antimicrobial consumption in food animal production” — meaning, Brazil is third in the world for its use of tetracycline in its food animals.”  

A confidential 2012 internal Oxitec document divulged that survival rate could be as high as 15% — even with low levels of tetracycline present. “Even small amounts of tetracycline can repress” the engineered lethality. The 15% survival rate was described by Oxitec:

“After a lot of testing and comparing experimental design, it was found that [researchers] had used a cat food to feed the [OX513A] larvae and this cat food contained chicken. It is known that tetracycline is routinely used to prevent infections in chickens, especially in the cheap, mass produced, chicken used for animal food. The chicken is heat-treated before being used, but this does not remove all the tetracycline. This meant that a small amount of tetracycline was being added from the food to the larvae and repressing the [designed] lethal system.”

Whoops.

While the exact relationship of GMO bugs and Zika is not known, there are many questions that remain.

Connection of Acute Flaccid Myelitis and Vaccinations

http://www.thevaccinereaction.org/2016/11/acute-flaccid-myelitis-and-routine-childhood-vaccinations-this-is-nothing-new/

Just two weeks after receiving a vaccination, Daniel Ramirez died after being hospitalized for paralysis.

The connection between vaccination and paralysis has been known since the 40’s and 50’s and was written about in The Lancet by Stephen Mawdsley in an article titled, “Polio Provocation: Solving a Mystery With the Help of History.” Mawdsley states:

“The application of epidemiological surveillance and statistical methods enabled researchers to trace the steady rise in polio incidence along with the expansion of immunization programs for diphtheria, pertussis, and tetanus. A report that emerged from Guy’s and Evelina Hospitals, London, in 1950, found that 17 cases of polio paralysis developed in the limb injected with pertussis or tetanus inoculations. Results published by Australian doctor Bertram McCloskey also showed a strong association between injections and polio paralysis. Meanwhile, in the USA, public health researchers in New York and Pennsylvania reached similar conclusions. Clinical evidence, derived from across three continents, had established a theory that required attention.”

So what happened to this theory that piercing the skin during injection drives the polio virus into deep tissue where it then enters the central nervous system where it ultimately leads to paralysis and even death?

Good question.

The theory was essentially proven in 1998 in an article titled, “Mechanism of Injury-Provoked Poliomyelitis,” in the Journal of Virology. Researchers state:

“Skeletal muscle injury is known to predispose its sufferers to neurological complications of concurrent poliovirus infections. This phenomenon, labeled ‘provocation poliomyelitis,’ continues to cause numerous cases of childhood paralysis due to the administration of unnecessary injections to children in areas where poliovirus is endemic. Recently, it has been reported that intramuscular injections may also increase the likelihood of vaccine-associated paralytic poliomyelitis in recipients of live attenuated poliovirus vaccines. We have studied this important risk factor for paralytic polio in an animal system for poliomyelitis and have determined the pathogenic mechanism linking intramuscular injections and provocation poliomyelitis. Skeletal muscle injury induces retrograde axonal transport of poliovirus and thereby facilitates viral invasion of the central nervous system and the progression of spinal cord damage. The pathogenic mechanism of provocation poliomyelitis may differ from that of polio acquired in the absence of predisposing factors.”

The virus associated with the recent hospitalizations is Enterovirus D68, which is not polio per se, but is very similar and is in the same family of enteroviruses. Doctor Alan S. Cunningham, MD, a retired pediatrician wrote about his fear of the possibility of provocation of a polio-like virus due to vaccination in The BMJ in 2015:

“Since August 2, 2014, our Centers for Disease Control has received reports of 107 cases of ‘acute flaccid myelitis’ (AFM), a polio-like illness in children in 34 states. During the same interval there have been 1153 cases of respiratory illnesses associated with enterovirus D-68 (CIDRAP News 1/16/15. CDC update 1/15/15. Catherine Saint Louis, NY Times 1/13/15). AFM affects motor neurons in spinal cord gray matter, resulting in asymmetrical limb weakness; 34% of patients have cranial nerve motor dysfunction. Median age of patients is 7.6 years/range: 5 months-20 years (MMWR 63: 1243–January 9, 2015). So far only one child has fully recovered. EV-D68 is a suspected cause but, thus far, no viruses have been found in the spinal fluid of patients, and only a minority have had an antecedent illness associated with EV-D68. Case-control studies are planned to look for clues, but presently AFM is a mystery disease of unknown cause. It is taboo to suggest a role for vaccines, but some old-timers remember “provocation poliomyelitis” or “provocation paralysis.” This is paralytic polio following intramuscular injections, typically with vaccines. PP was most convincingly documented by Austin Bradford Hill and J. Knowelden during the 1949 British polio epidemic when the risk of paralytic polio was increased 20-fold among children who had received the DPT injection (BMJ 2:1–July 1, 1950). Similar observations were made by Greenberg and colleagues in New York City; their literature review cited suspected cases as far back as 1921 (Am J Public Health 42:142–Feb.1952). I first became aware of PP 10 years ago while browsing through “Krugman’s Infectious Disease of Children” (page 128 of the 2004 edition). AFM may result from a direct virus attack on the spinal cord, or by an immune attack triggered by a virus, or by something else. If a polio-like virus is circulating in the U.S., the possibility of its provocation by one or more vaccines has to be considered.”

Polio provocation resurfaced in the 80’s when vaccination programs in developing countries increased in tandem with more children becoming paralyzed.

The US government chose to continue vaccinating and stated,

“any possible doubts, whether or not well founded, about the safety of the vaccine cannot be allowed to exist in view of the need to assure that the vaccine will continue to be used to the maximum extent consistent with the nation’s public health objectives.”

This is important information to consider for MSIDS patients, since our immune systems are compromised and viruses often play a role in our illness, we need to consider the very probable connection with provoked viruses by vaccines along with our other tick borne infections.

https://madisonarealymesupportgroup.com/2015/08/12/connecting-dots-mycoplasma/  Written by the Office of Medical and Scientific Justice and substantiating this further:  http://www.whale.to/vaccine/cantwell2.html “One factor common to all the troops is that they were given experimental and potentially dangerous drugs and vaccines employed to protect them against Iraqi chemical and biowarfare agents. As early as December 1990, there were warnings about using our servicemen as medical guinea pigs. In an unprecedented legal decision, the FDA allowed the Pentagon to give unapproved drugs and vaccines without requiring consent of the soldiers. Claiming security reasons, the Pentagon also refused to identify the types or the number of drugs and injections they forced the troops to take… Soldiers who rejected the injections were given them forcibly. Physicians who refused to cooperate with the military’s experimental vaccine program were treated harshly.”

Unlike Mosquitoes, Ticks Year Long Threat

http://www.omaha.com/living/move-over-mosquitoes-tick-fight-takes-attention/article_996c6495-f986-59cf-8649-6bfd46fc4209.html

According to the Companion Animal Parasite Council (CAPC) 2016 is going to be a banner year for ticks, with the CDC listing 15 different tick borne diseases (TBI’s) which range from debilitating to fatal.

The council sates that they thrive everywhere from wooded areas to gardens, landscape plants and even backyard grasses with most people coming into contact with them in their own backyards.

The article states a big help in lowering the tick population is by deterring deer from your living area by planting vegetation deer don’t like to building a tall fence, although they can jump over fences as high as 10 feet. They state a foliar spray such as Bobbex Deer Repellent is effective year-round and supposedly safe for use around children and pets and won’t wash off from rain or snow. It was found to be 93% effective in deterring deer when compared to other like repellents.

According to Sam Telford, a professor of infectious diseases at Tufts, “One or two years of severe weather may depress their numbers, but remember….the successful feeding of one female tick on a deer translates to 2,000 eggs.”

Many believe that ticks are not active in the winter. Unfortunately, this is a myth.

Heartland Virus Ravages Man’s Body

http://www.livescience.com/56674-death-from-heartland-virus.html

Doctors found signs of Heartland Virus in nearly every tissue in a 68 year old Tennessean who died in 2015, according to a new report that has not yet been published in a peer-reviewed journal.

The infected man who was a landscaper first came to the hospital due to pain and a rash on his leg where he suspected a tick bite. He was initially treated with doxycycline, a first line drug for tick borne infections; however, he got worse and testing couldn’t reveal what he was infected with. The patient went into shock, was placed on a ventilator, given blood pressure meds and was put on dialysis for kidney failure. Despite aggressive therapy the patient died.

It wasn’t until the patient died that doctors determined he had Heartland Virus.

Previously scientist have found the virus in bone marrow, blood, lymph nodes and spleen, but in this case it was found in the liver, pancreas, heart, lungs, bowels, kidneys, testes, skin, muscles, and brain. The examined tissues revealed damage but researchers are not sure if this is due to the virus or from an autoimmune response.

The man also suffered from confusion and an altered mental state, making researchers theorize that his symptoms could have been caused by the virus itself.

Dr. Mary-Margaret Fill, an epidemic intelligence officer at the Tennessee Department of Health and lead author of the study states that the virus “can cause much more widespread infection than we knew.” Fill also notes that for the vast majority of cases people will have mild to no symptoms at all but that for some it can spread quickly and be fatal.

There are no current treatments for viruses and the only testing is available through the CDC.

There are things you can do to fight viruses, however:
https://madisonarealymesupportgroup.com/2016/03/28/combating-viruses/. Wisconsin is a hot-bed for Powassan – another virus that can be transmitted through tick bite:

Zika Puzzling Scientists

https://www.washingtonpost.com/amphtml/world/the_americas/scientists-are-bewildered-by-zikas-path-across-latin-america/2016/10/25/

The latest saga in the Zika Chronicles is that the Post states scientists are bewildered that Zika is

“not producing the wave of fetal deformities so widely feared….”

For those of you just tuning in, please read: https://madisonarealymesupportgroup.com/2016/03/08/fixation-on-zikapolio/.     The take home: 80% of those with Zika don’t even know they have it and 1 out of every 5 will have mild symptoms that last a week.

https://madisonarealymesupportgroup.com/2016/07/17/zika-in-the-land-of-oz/.  The take home: Brazil has been using WHOLE-CELL pertussis vaccines on impoverished pregnant women in the 27th, 36th, and up to 20 days of expected birth date. There is NO SIGN OF ZIKA in many cases of microcephaly and over 40 countries have Zika with no increased microcephaly. Brazil was spraying pyriproxyfen, a pyridine-based pesticide, on drinking water used by the affected population for 18 months prior to the microcephaly outbreak directly in that area. The transmission cycles for Zika in the U.S. is near zero.

https://madisonarealymesupportgroup.com/2016/04/08/zika-ebola-zombies-and-the-cdc/.  The take home: Based on TWO fetal tissue samples, the CDC has stated that Zika causes microcephaly. Meanwhile Physicians in the Crop-Sprayed villages Argentina debunk this theory altogether and state it’s more likely that the pesticides and vaccines are causing the issue.

The Post admits that 75% of babies born with microcephaly are in northeastern Brazil, a highly impoverished region where nutritional deficiencies are the norm not the exception. Of course they are looking for other viruses to blame but quietly mention that environmental, genetic, or immunological factors – of course – combined with Zika may be issues.

Although they are puzzled, researchers and health officials remain cautious about the low U.N. numbers showing just 142 cases of birth defects linked to Zika outside Brazil. The article admits that the condition was initially over diagnosed.

Ernesto Marques, originally from Northern Brazil, is now an epidemiologist at the University of Pittsburgh who states that the focus on Zika has changed from causing microcephally to being a smoking gun. He admits they don’t know who is pulling the trigger, but true to form he is working on a vaccine. As for what is pulling the trigger, he hypothesizes that northern Brazilian mothers might have fewer antibodies to Zika or perhaps that sexual habits and hygiene play a role. Researchers state it will take years to identify the dangers.

I say the one armed man did it.

Peter Hotez, dean of the National School of Tropical Medicine at Baylor College of Medicine is complaining that they can’t even count how many actual people were infected because Congress didn’t approve Zika funding.

Now that’s the wisest thing I’ve heard all day.

Hotez is actually holding his breath to see what happens in the next few months.

Well, Peter, while you are holding your breath for something that isn’t going to happen, there are bodies piling up on the side of the road of people with tick borne illnesses that can’t get diagnosed, can’t get proper treatment, and if they miraculously do their medical insurance won’t cover a red cent.  Those who are chronically infected may lose everything trying to defeat an illness(es) that necessitates years of treatment.  
http://wapo.st/2c8cGiE  Here we have Wisconsin’s Paul Ryan accusing the Senate of “partisan filibustering” by not approving Zika funding.  Mr. Ryan you’ve been in Washington for too long and have obviously forgotten your fellow Wisconsinites who are contracting TBI’s at an alarming rate.

Zika isn’t even on the radar here.
