BioFascist Coup Declared – Tell Your Governor & Local Legislators that COVID Injections MUST Be Voluntary

September 13, 2021

Politics, religious beliefs, and vaccine choice are personal decisions; however, we are facing an unprecedented intercept of politics and medicine, and as Dr. Hodkinson states,

“It’s politics playing medicine and that’s a very dangerous game.”

The purpose for the following informative video and petition is to educate Lyme/MSIDS patients that President Biden, despite previously stating he would never give a vaccine mandate, is rolling vaccine mandates forward by announcing that private businesses with more than 100 employees must get the injections or face fines of $14,000 each incident if they don’t implement a mandate for vaccines and testing.  It will use the “full legal authority” of the Department of Education to insert itself into the sovereignty of the states’ right to protect its own citizens and school children. It will deploy “Federal Monoclonal Antibody Strike Teams” in partnership with HHS, FEMA, and the Department of Defense.  Biden also threatened to use his powers as President to “remove governors” to get them out of the way.

In typical, “what’s good for thee, but not for me” hypocrisy, members of congress and their staffs will be exempt from the vaccine mandate.  Interestingly, AP reveals the Biden regime consulted with labor unions before issuing the mandate.  The only problem that everyone seems to forget is that this is a medical decision that should be made between a person and their physician.

Despite this edict being unconstitutional, it’s quite obvious the Biden regime intends a needle to go into every single arm (except theirs of course).  Furthering the new dystopia, the Surgeon General states that the Biden regime will ‘monitor’ exemptions to the COVID mandate.

Predictably, the CDC on September 1, 2021 updated its definition of “vaccination” from “The act of introducing a vaccine into the body to produce immunity to a specific disease,” to produce “protection.”  This furthers the newspeak that the COVID injections are “safe and effective,” despite the fact they don’t stop infection or transmission.  Now, they have that base covered as thousands upon thousands (14,115 fully “vaxxed” as of Sept. 7, 2021 either hospitalized or dead from COVID) of “break-through” infections and deaths are occurring in the fully “vaccinated.” 

For anyone paying attention, historically the CDC has often quietly updated information, changed definitions,  manipulatesd data, and flat-out lied if it suits their purpose.
Remember, this organization has a long and sordid history of corruption.

The John Birch Society, citing Federalist Paper #16, states that local, county, and state governments need to ignore the orders or pass resolutions and legislation that protects against this overreach. 

28 States have now announced they will not implement vaccine mandates, or the use of vaccine passports. Here are three examples of legal remedies, that can be sent to your elected officials;
  • Lander County, Nevada has adopted multiple resolutions, providing robust protections from discrimination. Please share the document with your own County Commissioners.
  • Florida’s Governor Ron DeSantis has just passed a resolution banning mandates and vaccine passports.
  • South Dakota’s legislature has two bills awaiting special session, once passed these bills will codify health status as a protected class, and provide legal remedy for segregation, discrimination, and coercion.

Politics is about relationships, and community. It only takes one elected official to introduce a resolution for consideration.

Lyme/MSIDS patients, and lovers of freedom, should be very concerned and taking action. There are many reasons to forego vaccination – particularly when an injection has caused more damage than in the past 30 years of the VAERS reporting system.
Forced vaccination violates the Nuremburg Code and discriminates and segregates.
By ensuring that there is zero approved outpatient treatment, our government has trapped nearly every American who has not been infected – vaccinated and unvaccinated – into a death trap in the overrun hospitals. And that seems to be exactly where they want us.  Source
Particularly troubling to Lyme/MSIDS patients is that vaccination has caused latent infections to reactivate. 

The following short 8 minute video with Naomi Wolf, author and journalist, clearly shows we are in unprecedented times.  https://rumble.com/vmas3g-a-biofascist-coup-was-declared-today.html  Video Here

ACT NOW: Tell your governor and local legislators that COVID-19 vaccines must be voluntary!

Personal choice, not public pressure or coercion, must be the only factor in getting the vaccine.

Our Stand

  • President Biden’s recent plan to vaccinate all Americans is overreach into states’ rights to protect the health and welfare of their citizens. It is illegal, illogical and immoral. There is no authority to use the office of the presidency to make a nation-wide vaccine mandate, nor to direct employers to assume liability for the same.
  • With round-the-clock media coverage of coronavirus, there is a strong and growing push for Americans to widely accept the impending COVID-19 vaccine — even though the vaccine is experimental and has known safety concerns. However, the U.S. public is divided over whether to get the vaccine. In the latest poll from the Pew Research Center, which surveyed more than 10,000 U.S. adults in September, about half of respondents (51%) said they would definitely or probably get a coronavirus vaccine if it were available today.
  • Amidst intense public pressure from government and community leaders, there are many people asking, “Will I be forced to get the COVID-19 vaccine?” There are myriad reasons why someone might choose to decline the vaccine. Among the most common are conscientious objections, religious convictions, a history of prior vaccine injury and concerns over safety, including the speed with which the vaccine is being developed and the lack of long-term safety data.
  • States across the country have drafted COVID-19 vaccination plans that utilize tracking systems, outline incentives to ensure maximum uptake of the vaccine, and identify priority populations to receive the vaccine. A July 2020 Johns Hopkins report urges local and state public health agencies to explore bundling vaccination with other safety net services. “Bundling services (e.g., food security, rent assistance, free clinic services) that are already being provided to particularly vulnerable populations in the context of COVID (e.g., older adults, low-income adults, Black and minority communities) could be a way to build trust and streamline vaccine provision,” the report says.
  • Such programs could ultimately result in the denial of crucial services for those who choose to opt out of the vaccine, thereby stripping individuals of any opportunity to make this medical decision for themselves. Even if the COVID-19 vaccine is not mandated, some states could choose to limit the privileges of those who can’t supply proof of vaccination. This, experts say, is a violation of human rights and constitutional rights — especially since much of the population is not at risk from harm from COVID but could easily experience harm from a fast-tracked, experimental vaccine.
  • Under U.S. Supreme Court ruling, in order to mandate a medical intervention there must be an epidemic that imperils the entire population. According to the CDC’s own data, most people have greater than a 97 percent chance of surviving COVID. In fact, for those under 70, the survivability rate among those infected ranges from 99.5 percent to 99.9 percent. Moreover, the COVID-19 vaccine is not supposed to prevent transmission; it’s merely supposed to lessen symptoms. As such, there is no basis upon which to require the vaccine; it’s up to each person to decide how to care for their own body based on their own judgment and unique physiology.
  • It is unethical and immoral to mandate an experimental vaccine that has known safety concerns and for which there is no liability. Under the PREP Act — which was passed in 2005 and invoked in March of 2020 — vaccine and drug manufacturers, government agencies, doctors and all others are 100 percent free from any and all liability (absent intentional wrongdoing) resulting from harm caused by the coronavirus vaccine. Thus, no one will bear responsibility if you or your family is harmed by the vaccine. Lastly, for those with deeply held religious beliefs (or who lead a pharmaceutical-free life), vaccination violates their convictions to abide by natural law and to walk in faith, not fear.
  • Stand up for your basic human right for informed consent and to decline a medical intervention! Click below to email and tweet your governor and local lawmakers to urge them to make the COVID-19 vaccine voluntary, not mandatory. Let them know that the only one who stands to profit from the COVID-19 vaccine is the pharmaceutical industry.

Myocarditis After COVID-19 mRNA Shots But Just Mask Up & Shut Up

https://www.nejm.org/doi/full/10.1056/NEJMc2109975?

Myocarditis after Covid-19 mRNA Vaccination

This letter was published on August 18, 2021, at NEJM.org.

TO THE EDITOR:

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recently reported cases of myocarditis and pericarditis in the United States after coronavirus disease 2019 (Covid-19) messenger RNA (mRNA) vaccination.1 In recently published reports, diagnosis of myocarditis was made with the use of noninvasive imaging and routine laboratory testing.2-5 Here, we report two cases of histologically confirmed myocarditis after Covid-19 mRNA vaccination.

Figure 1. Histopathological Findings from Endomyocardial Biopsy and Autopsy.

Patient 1, a 45-year-old woman without a viral prodrome, presented with dyspnea and dizziness 10 days after BNT162b2 vaccination (first dose). A nasopharyngeal viral panel was negative for severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), influenza A and B, enteroviruses, and adenovirus (Table S1 in the Supplementary Appendix, available with the full text of this letter at NEJM.org). A serum polymerase-chain-reaction (PCR) assay and serologic tests showed no evidence of active parvovirus, enterovirus, human immunodeficiency virus, or infection with SARS-CoV-2. At presentation, she had tachycardia; ST-segment depression detected on electrocardiography, which was most prominent in the lateral leads (Fig. S1); and a troponin I level of 6.14 ng per milliliter (reference range, 0 to 0.30). A transthoracic echocardiogram showed severe global left ventricular systolic dysfunction (ejection fraction, 15 to 20%) and normal left ventricular dimensions. Right heart catheterization revealed elevated right- and left-sided filling pressures and a cardiac index of 1.66 liters per minute per square meter of body-surface area as measured by the Fick method. Coronary angiography revealed no obstructive coronary artery disease. An endomyocardial biopsy specimen showed an inflammatory infiltrate predominantly composed of T-cells and macrophages, admixed with eosinophils, B cells, and plasma cells (Figure 1A and Figs. S2 through S4). She received inotropic support, intravenous diuretics, methylprednisolone (1 g daily for 3 days), and, eventually, guideline-directed medical therapy for heart failure (lisinopril, spironolactone, and metoprolol succinate). Seven days after presentation, her ejection fraction was 60%, and she was discharged home.

Patient 2, a 42-year-old man, presented with dyspnea and chest pain 2 weeks after mRNA-1273 vaccination (second dose). He did not report a viral prodrome, and a PCR test was negative for SARS-CoV-2 (Table S1). He had tachycardia and a fever, and his electrocardiogram showed diffuse ST-segment elevation (Fig. S1). A transthoracic echocardiogram showed global biventricular dysfunction (ejection fraction, 15%), normal ventricular dimensions, and left ventricular hypertrophy. Coronary angiography revealed no coronary artery disease. Cardiogenic shock developed in the patient, and he died 3 days after presentation. An autopsy revealed biventricular myocarditis (Figure 1B and Figs. S5 and S6). An inflammatory infiltrate admixed with macrophages, T-cells, eosinophils, and B cells was observed, a finding similar to that in Patient 1.

In these two adult cases of histologically confirmed, fulminant myocarditis that had developed within 2 weeks after Covid-19 vaccination, a direct causal relationship cannot be definitively established because we did not perform testing for viral genomes or autoantibodies in the tissue specimens. However, no other causes were identified by PCR assay or serologic examination.

‘MASK UP AND SHUT UP’

Entering the ridiculous, public health officials are now asking people not to talk to stop the Covid virus. Jefferey Jaxen dives into the science behind the latest Covid mitigation suggestion.

__________________

**Comment**

The video is revealing on many fronts:

  • Propaganda is alive and well.
  • The paper “Viral Load of SARS-CoV-2 in Respiratory Aerosols Emitted By COVID-19 Patients While Breathing, Talking, and Singing,” has numerous disclaimers in fine print, namely, that they couldn’t mechanically retrieve and isolate a viable virus from ambient air in the vicinity of patients.  Well, that’s inconvenient.
  • This study demonstrates perfectly the hypocrisy of our corrupt public health ‘authorities’ in that they demand perfectly done randomized, controlled trials on thousands of patients to approve COVID treatments, completely ignoring clinical results, but will accept and propagate poorly done science that pushes their continued fear narrative that lines their pockets. And even when there properly done RCTs they ignore them and then go on a smear campaign to malign them, and implement bandwagon to make the public believe their accepted narrative.
  • This duplicity has been going on in Lyme-land for over 40 years and continues today.  Hopefully people are waking up to it.

**Comment**

VAERS data released on 8/6/21 found 3,644 reported cases of Myocarditis or Pericarditis after COVID shots.

What’s Behind This Epidemic of Chronic, Inflammatory Conditions?

https://www.lymedisease.org/kinderlehrer-epigenetics/

What’s behind this epidemic of chronic, inflammatory conditions?

Dr. Dan Kinderlehrer

by Daniel A. Kinderlehrer MD

I have witnessed many changes in the over 40 years I’ve been a doctor, including epidemic rises in multiple medical conditions.

I’m not talking about the present pandemic, nor am I referring to the opioid crisis, another devastating epidemic that has taken the lives of over 500,000 Americans. I’m talking about chronic conditions that cause a slow burn and sometimes kill.

Lyme disease is but one example.

But think how things have changed since the beginning of the previous century: heart disease was barely on the radar in 1900, but for over 50 years it has been the number one cause of death in the U.S.1

A whopping 69% of Americans are now overweight, with 36.5% obese,2 directly contributing to the skyrocketing incidence of adult-onset diabetes mellitus.3 When I was in training in the 1970s, I never saw a patient with AODM who was under 40 years old. Now, it is being diagnosed in children.

And then there are the dramatic increases in autism spectrum disorder,4 attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD),5 autoimmune conditions,6 some types of cancer7 and food allergies.8

Food sensitivities, mental health

Twenty-five years ago, when I had a large environmental medicine practice, most of my patients with food sensitivities reacted to one or more of a half dozen foods: milk, corn, eggs, wheat, citrus, or sugar/yeast. It was easy to put patients on an elimination diet: fish, lamb, vegetables, legumes, potatoes and rice. Now people react to avocados, rice, and anything under the sun.

And, of course, there’s the rise in mental health disorders. Even before the Covid pandemic, the World Health Organization predicted that depression would become the leading cause of death globally.9

According to the CDC, in 2019, 19% of Americans suffered from depression and 7% were moderately to severely affected.10 Among adults, suicidal ideation is increasing. Suicide has become the second leading cause of death in children and adolescents ages 13 to 19—and the leading cause of death among 13 year-olds.11 (Among all Americans, it is the tenth leading cause of death.11)

The role of epigenetics

There are a host of factors that determine the how, where and why illness occurs. These include genetic proclivity, lifestyle, trauma, diet, exposures to microbes and toxins. But here is what is further catapulting these seemingly disparate epidemics: a change in the human condition that we now understand as epigenetics.

While it takes millennia of natural selection to change our genes, specific proteins that turn genes on and off can alter gene expression in a single generation. Epigenetics explains how a change in expression of genes can be passed from one generation to the next without actually changing the DNA. There are literally thousands of conditions that can cause epigenetic changes.

Nutrient deficiencies, for example exacerbated by soil depletion, can activate epigenetic changes that result in neurological issues from mood and behavioral disorders to cognitive dysfunction, and these problems are passed on to subsequent generations.12,13 Epigenetics helps explain why the skyrocketing sugar intake in our diets is causing obesity.14,15

Chemical exposures also have epigenetic consequences. Over the past century, we have been exposed to hundreds of thousands of chemicals that are new to human existence. Pesticides, insecticides, herbicides, and other chemicals all have the potential to modify epigenetic activity.16 Countless agents now ubiquitous in daily life, from air pollution to air fresheners and fabric softeners can negatively impact overall health.17,18

Societal changes

But it is not only diet, nutrition, and exposure to toxic chemicals that have changed in the past century. Another factor which has undergone radical transformation is the social milieu. The social sphere, which used to revolve around communities, has devolved to extended families, then to nuclear families, then single-parent families, and now, tragically at times, to homeless families or solitude.

It is no longer routine for people to go next door to be held by grandma, or move in with aunts and uncles when the going at home gets rough. In essence, safe shelter has disappeared. This lack of safety is compounded for survivors of childhood trauma, who often develop epigenetic abnormalities and thus pass the trauma on to their offspring.19

Intergenerational trauma

That’s right—PTSD can be inherited. A review paper by Rachel Yehuda and Amy Lehrner on intergenerational transmission of trauma and the role of epigenetic mechanisms states:

“There is now converging evidence supporting the idea that offspring are affected by parental trauma exposures occurring before their birth, and possibly even prior to their conception. On the simplest level, the concept of intergenerational trauma acknowledges that exposure to extremely adverse events impacts individuals to such a great extent that their offspring find themselves grappling with their parents’ post‐traumatic state.”20

PTSD is not only a psychological disorder, it triggers increasing dysregulation of an individual’s neurobiology.21

Other social factors also have an enormous impact on health and well-being. Social isolation is a major risk factor for depression.22 The chronic stresses of poverty, racism, homophobia, and misogyny not only make for a bad day, they act on our biochemical pathways impacting immune, hormonal, and neurological function.23

The long-term release of the stress hormone cortisol and of proteins called cytokines (which regulate the body’s immune system response) can cause even more damage. These biochemical messengers, in turn, can result in epigenetic changes that are passed on to future generations.24

We’re not born with a clean slate

Epigenetic transmission means that both physical and emotional traumas are cumulative over generations. Newborns are not born with a clean slate. And these alterations in epigenetics are manifesting in a tsunami that is destabilizing individuals’ core regulatory systems.

Increasingly, people respond as if they have continuous PTSD—their nervous and immune systems going haywire at both real and imagined threats, with all the downstream consequences evident in an increasingly sick population.

Which brings us back to PANS, which I have discussed in the past few articles.

I think we are witnessing an epidemic of autoimmune reactivity to multiple agents in the environment—like foods, viruses, bacteria, and mold. We are clearly seeing it with SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19). When autoimmune reactivity results in neuroinflammation, it can result in cognitive dysfunction, PANS and a panoply of mental health disorders—for generations to come.

We need to become more cognizant of the cumulative stresses that result in combined mental and physical issues, and address them at their core.

Dr. Daniel Kinderlehrer is an internal medicine physician in Denver, Colorado, with a practice devoted to treating patients with tick-borne illness. He is the author of  Recovery From Lyme Disease: The Integrative Medicine Guide to the Diagnosis and Treatment of Tick-Borne Illness.

**Comment**

I’ve got news for you: vaccines are also stressors.  They can reactivate latent infections including but not limited to Lyme/MSIDS.  They can also be contaminated with retroviruses, viruses, cancer, parasites, metals, graphene oxide, poly–ethylene glycol (PEG) and ethylene alcohol, and other harmful nanoparticles.  And all gene-based vaccines such as the COVID jabs can be expected to cause blood clotting and bleeding disorders based on their molecular mechanisms of action. Further, the spike protein is a dangerous toxin causing untold damage.

Vaccines have been and are a source of destruction that is being put directly into bodies of millions worldwide. It is the “golden calf” no one wants to talk about, or is censored and bullied if they do, but is THE elephant in the room.

“A Tick Bite Turned Me Into the Bionic Woman – Entirely Preventable”

https://www.lymedisease.org/bradshaw-lyme-bionic-woman/

“A tick bite turned me into the bionic woman–entirely preventable”

The following public comments were provided by telephone to the federal Tick-Borne Disease Working Group on August 26.

My name is Meghan Bradshaw and I’m 28 years old. I’m here to share my story as a patient to demonstrate the magnitude of devastation that tick-borne diseases can cause.

My experience is unique, but it is similar to so many others in that the lack of accurate diagnostics led me to a situation that was entirely preventable.

Just a few years ago, I was an active, independent 20-something-year-old living in a bustling city. My career trajectory was moving quickly. But simultaneously I was battling with my health and had a steady, then very rapid decline.

Despite extensive lifestyle changes – eliminating alcohol, anti-inflammatory diet, and countless medication – I saw no changes, although I was doing what my doctors told me were “all the right things.”

Over the last few years, I have seen dozens of doctors across a spectrum of specialties at some of the most prominent medical institutions – Vanderbilt University and the world-renowned Cleveland Clinic. Not once were vector-borne illnesses ever considered to be the culprit.

Misdiagnosed, improperly treated

In 2017, I was improperly diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis and followed the standard protocol of immunosuppressant therapeutics. This improper diagnosis is what ultimately opened the floodgates to allow the underlying tick-borne disease infections in my body to run rampant.

In October 2019 I started a series of surgeries:

  • Left knee synovectomy and meniscectomy
  • Bilateral total hip replacements
  • Bilateral total shoulder reverse arthroplasty
  • Proximal Interphalangeal Fusion on digits 2-5 Left hand
  • Last week, I had fusion of PIP digits 2-5 Right hand

Additionally, I am slated for

  • Bilateral knee, elbow and ankle replacements
  • Left wrist replacement

Also to note, nearly a dozen other joints have auto fused.

It’s one thing to list all these out, but to live it out daily, is an overwhelming burden- both functionally and financially.

I require assistance with virtually everything-bathing, toileting, grooming, dressing, feeding.

My fine motor skills are comparable to those of a toddler.

As a result of my immobility, I’ve had total muscular atrophy, losing over 60 pounds in less than a year, which is about 1/3 of my body composition, as I am 5’3”.

Physiological and emotional devastation

I want to stress not only the physiological and emotional devastation that lack of education in the medical community can cause, but also the extreme financial devastation that so many patients suffer from.

Over the last 24 months, my medical bills have totaled over $600,000 in extensive amounts of surgeries, hospital stays, therapeutics, and physical therapy. My family has spent nearly $200,000 out of pocket alone.

And to think that this is the result of inaccurate diagnostic tools and lack of education for a disease that impacts nearly half a million Americans every year.

For an illness that is twice as common as breast cancer, why are we not incorporating testing for tick-borne illnesses in our routine exams like a mammogram?

Tick safety education ought to be a part of our school health curriculum, just like sex ed. These are simple, cost-effective, preventative measures that we should be implementing to prevent potentially devastating outcomes.

I want to reiterate that I share my story not looking for sympathy but hoping to inspire change. There is not a shadow of a doubt in my mind that had there been better clinical education and accurate diagnostic tools available, I would not be in the position that I am today.

A tick bite turned me into the bionic woman, and this was entirely preventable.

Meghan Bradshaw lives in North Carolina. To hear more of her journey, listen to her recent interview on the Tick Boot Camp Podcast.

The Great Ivermectin Deworming Hoax

September 10, 2021

https://www.thedesertreview.com/opinion/columnists/the-great-ivermectin-deworming-hoax/

The great Ivermectin deworming hoax

by Justus R. Hope, MD – writer’s pseudonym, graduated summa cum laude from Wabash College where he was named a Lilly Scholar. He attended Baylor College of Medicine where he was awarded the M.D. degree. He completed a residency in Physical Medicine & Rehabilitation at The University of California Irvine Medical Center. He is board-certified and has taught at The University of California Davis Medical Center in the departments of Family Practice and Physical Medicine & Rehabilitation. He has practiced medicine for over 35 years and maintains a private practice in Northern California.

In a normal year, the Kentucky Poison Control Center might receive one call from someone who has taken ivermectin, a drug commonly used to treat parasites in livestock. But amid increasing misinformation about the drug’s ability to both treat and prevent COVID-19, that number has increased to six this year.

This alarming news was published in Spectrum News – formerly known as Time Warner Cable – on August 24, 2021, and should be a lesson to every American.

https://spectrumnews1.com/ky/louisville/news/2021/08/24/ivermectin-calls-to-kentucky-poison-control-are-up

The lesson is not about Ivermectin being poisonous because it isn’t, but about the pervasiveness of a type of new internet propaganda termed “informational flooding.”

(See link for article)

**Comment**

Beautiful article.  Please share.

I’m sure the author, a bona fide doctor using a pseudonym, is afraid of retaliation for this expose’ on how corrupt public ‘authorities’ are handling the treatment of ivermectin. Doctors are being threatened on a daily basis for defying the accepted narrative, a phenomenon that’s been happening for over 40-years in Lyme-land.

Important quote:

It was all untrue. We were all lied to.

We’ve heard this before.  Believe NOTHING you have been told. It’s all been a:

“pack of lies, from start to finish – pure propaganda.”  Dr. Hodgkinson

Also, regarding the assertion that Ivermectin is confined to animals:

On the contrary, Ivermectin is used every day for scabies and is not confined to animals any more than penicillin is purely an animal antibiotic.

I will also add that it is a common drug in the treatment of Lyme/MSIDS, due to the fact ticks also can transmit worms to humans.

Another important quote:

The fact that Ivermectin is so much SAFER than over-the-counter Tylenol should make you wonder exactly why these articles made the news. The reason is simple.

Pfizer and Merck are getting ready to launch expensive new anti-viral pills that can provide early outpatient treatment for COVID-19 and perhaps even be used preventatively. Yet Ivermectin remains effective, cheap, and safe and thus poses a HUGE threat to their profits.

BINGO.

The article also clearly points out that these new medicines will be 100-1,000 times pricier and have already been funded by the U.S. government to the tune of 1.2 BILLION.  This simply means WE, through our tax dollars have already paid for it.

Merck already knows Ivermectin is safe, as they developed it and have used it in over three BILLION doses IN HUMANS for River Blindness.

Well, there’s an inconvenient truth.

The author then painstakingly goes through the Ivermectin research on its success with COVID and points out there are 63 AND COUNTING studies involving 26,000 patients showing a 96% reduction in DEATH. 

Case closed.

Do not believe these charlatans who have patents on nearly every aspect of COVID and their minions who either blindly follow these characters or are in on the game.  A good doctor doesn’t blindly follow others.
