**UPDATE**

Adding insult to injury, Open the Books via a FOIA request exposed that for the past two years Dr. Fauci has received $15 MILLION in taxpayer-funded security detail despite having returned to private citizenship.  This contract could be extended, and it is unknown if it has already been extended.

Anthony Fauci: 40 Years of Lies From AZT to Remdesivir

October 27, 2020

As the planet’s “Virus Tsar” since 1984, he has spread misinformation and ignored critical questions. The consequences could hardly be more fatal.

By Torsten Engelbrecht & Konstantin Demeter

Last week, US president Donald Trump committed a kind of blasphemy by attacking Anthony Fauci, his pandemic consultant and practically the spokesperson for the White House regarding COVID-19, saying that:

People are tired of hearing Fauci and all these idiots. He’s been here for 500 years.  Fauci is a disaster. If I listened to him, we’d have 500,000 deaths.“

A remarkable statement of historical dimension, since Trump is the first American head of state to cast doubt on Fauci, who has acted as the virus tsar for no less than six presidencies: Reagan, Bush, Clinton, Bush Jr., Obama and Trump. (See link for article)

**Comment**

You probably recognize the name of Torsten Engelbrecht as I’ve posted numerous times on how his “must read” book, “Virus Mania:  How the Medical Industry Continually Invents Epidemics,  Making Billion-Dollar Profits at Our Expense,” prepared me for what we are going through today.  Engelbrecht has been onto the virus scam for a long, long time.  Explanation of book here:  https://www.torstenengelbrecht.com/en/virus-mania/  Highly recommended reading.  

The article might seem unduly rough, but you must understand COVID-19 is not Anthony Fauci’s first rodeo.  The singular big cahoona at NIAID for 7 presidencies, Fauci is the gatekeeper to research funding and has more power than one man should ever be given.  

Recently, the public has been shown the antics of Dr. Fauci, aka, Dr. Evil:

  • Fauci’s funding of AIDS drug trials in orphans which included forced feedings through nasal and gastric tubes which caused organ failure, deformities, brain damage, and killed 200 children.  Fauci demanded adherence at all costs, even the children’s’ well being.  No testing was used to even confirm if the children had HIV.  When parents withdrew consent, the child was removed and placed in a foster home that would comply. 
  • Fauci’s funding of beagle puppy experimentation which severed their vocal cords so they couldn’t bark, covered their heads in mesh boxes, and allowed flies to eat their faces off.
  • Fauci’s funding of experiments implanting aborted fetal scalps onto lab rats and hamsters.
  • Fauci’s funding of $2 Million to force feed puppies with experimental allergy drugs.
  • Fauci’s funding of $205,000 to create transgender monkeys.
  • Fauci’s funding of $2.5 Million injecting puppies with cocaine.
  • Fauci and his wife were worth $11M at the end of 2022, up from $7.9M in 2019.  
  • $350 Million in secret payments were given to Fauci, Collins, and NIH scientists.
  • Besides 
  • Go here for Dr. Evil’s historical playbook.

Here’s a bullet point summary of the article, although I highly recommend reading the entire article:

  1. Not wearing a face mask has not lead to a single, extra death:  https://madisonarealymesupportgroup.com/2020/11/12/fauci-states-covid-test-has-a-fatal-flaw-back-in-july-just-like-he-said-face-masks-were-useless-back-in-may/
  2. The COVID-19 death rate shows the viral cause for excess mortality is virtually impossible.
  3. Fauci has been telling one lie after another for decades with a complicit mass media regurgitating his lies:  https://madisonarealymesupportgroup.com/2020/08/29/every-breath-you-take-every-move-you-make-the-who-is-watching-you-the-media-is-bought-out-by-gates/
  4. Fauci has a long habit of silencing and ignoring critical questions.
  5. In order to understand the abundance of lies one has to understand that PCR tests are scientifically meaningless in detecting so-called SARS-CoV-2 infections, that according to orthodox researchers COVID-19 is not excessively dangerous, and those referred to as COVID-19 victims probably did not die of it, but of non-viral factors and serious underlying diseases.
  6. The viral narrative has become a fairy-tale:  https://madisonarealymesupportgroup.com/2020/12/07/ten-fatal-errors-scientists-attack-paper-that-establish-global-pcr-driven-lockdown/
  7. The beginning of the fairy-tale; however, started with AIDS when “virus hunters” enjoyed god-like status accomplished by lies and deceit:  https://madisonarealymesupportgroup.com/2020/03/16/does-the-coronavirus-exist/
  8. 50 million were persuaded to get vaccinated during the 1976 swine flu SCAM, which resulted in severe side-effects including paralysis and death in 20-40%:  https://madisonarealymesupportgroup.com/2020/08/22/the-2009-swine-flu-scam-murderous-anthony-fauci-betrays-public-trust-again/
  9. Due to “unsettled political waters” at the end of the 70’s, the NIH and CDC, “increasingly needed a major epidemic to justify its existence,” according to Red Cross office Paul Cumming.  The HIV/AIDS theory was just the ticket.
  10. According to Kary Mullis, the inventor of the PCR, “All the old virus hunters from the National Cancer Institute put new signs on their doors and become AIDS researchers.”  All of a sudden everyone was fully employed, including Robert Gallo who just happened to need a new career at the time.
  11. AIDS research started with big lies, specifically Gallo’s announcement that “the probable cause of AIDS has been found.”
  12. After he filed a patent application for an antibody test, Gallo’s papers were printed, so nobody was able to review his work for a time, which is a severe breach of professional scientific etiquette.
  13. Review later showed Gallo’s studies did NOT prove the virus thesis.
  14. Kary Mullis is quoted as stating Montagnier, Gallo, nor anyone else has published papers describing experiments which leads to the conclusion that HIV probably causes AIDS.  Mullis personally asked Montagnier for a reference proving HIV causes AIDS but he couldn’t name one.
  15. When Engelbrecht asked Fauci and NIAID several times for such a study, he was told, “Dr. Fauci respectfully declines to respond to the questions that you emailed.”
  16. This failure to respond to scientific questions is typical of misconduct cases and “runs like a golden thread through Fauci’s 36-year history as director of the NIAID.”  Please see original article for specific examples – and there are many.
  17. The approval of AZT, the 1st authorized AIDS medication, is a perfect example, as many labeled the study it was all based upon a “fraud,” “a gigantic botch-up,” and “seriously flawed.”  Even a FDA toxicologist analyst stated there was insufficient data to support approval of AZT.  Please refer to the original article for the study’s many flaws.  Stopped after four months, the study was financed by AZT manufacturer Wellcome, which is now GlaxoSmith Kline. (All of this is quite reminiscent of what is currently happening with Remdesivir which recently obtained EUA approval for COVID-19 despite lack of results)
  18. Fauci only appears in the media when critical questions are not asked. On the rare occasion when he was asked why AZT was the only drug available he stated numerous lies: “that it was safe”, “that there have been scientifically controlled trials”, and that “it’s effective”.  AZT is a highly toxic drug, the FDA trials were not scientifically controlled, and about the only thing AZT is effective for is destroying bone marrow.  Even the creator of AZT “dumped it on the junk pile, didn’t keep the notebooks, and didn’t even think it was worth patenting.”
  19. Despite Fauci’s promise of an AIDS vaccine 35 years ago – which has been given over a trillion US dollars so far, and an annual budget of around 35 billion dollars, it hasn’t happened yet.  
  20. Fauci predicted the so called “bird flu” would cause 2-7 million deaths. WHO estimated by May 2006 it had killed only 100 people.  He stated serious adverse events for the fast-tracked swine flu vaccine was “very, very, very rare,” yet cases of narcolepsy came pouring in.
  21. Fauci has pushed for preexposure prophylaxis of ART for HIV prevention in those that are HIV negative, i.e. giving highly toxic drugs to completely healthy people.  Engelbrecht sent Fauci a list of important question about this but was told again, “Dr. Fauci respectfully declines to respond to the questions that you emailed.”
  22. Regarding the anti-viral Remdesivir which recently obtained EUA status for COVID-19, the Alliance for Human Research and Protection (AHRF) brings up the fact Fauci has a vested interest the drug as he sponsored the clinical trial – which has not even been peer-reviewed. To date, he still has not made public his financial relations with Gilead the manufacturer.  Instead of using science, he made the promotional announcement sitting on a couch in the White House, without allowing for review of the data. At the time he also failed to disclose to the public that the primary outcomes of the study were changed, which the AHRF considers “dubious and suspicious”, of which the mainstream media ignored, but should raise serious red flags.  He then shrugged off a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multi-center peer-reviewed, published Chinese study that was stopped due to serious adverse events.  
  23. Remdesivir has caused serious kidney problems and the WHO “Solidarity” trial showed it did not produce any measurable benefit in mortality, the need for ventilators, or the length of hospital stay, but Fauci is silent on these findings.  In a bizarre twist, Gilead came out with a statement that conclusive findings can not be drawn from the trial because hadn’t been peer-reviewed or published yet, despite the WHO stating that the large, international study was designed to generate the robust data needed to show which treatment are most effective.  Gilead failed to mention that the study used to promote Remdesivir was not peer-reviewed or published before it was given EUA status.  When it was finally published it was in the New England Journal of Medicine, the same journal as the fraudulent pivotal trial of AZT. The study only stated that there was a shorter recovery time. Engelbrecht states this has no validity because of the flawed data and the fact participants did not receive a true placebo. FYI: we are talking about BIG money here.  According to this, the mediocre drug has already brought in $873 million:  https://www.nytimes.com/2020/10/29/health/covid-remdesivir-gilead
  24. Fauci maligns anything that competes with his lucrative products. In the case of COVID, this includes HCQ which had numerous studies stacked against it from the beginning, from giving patients high killer doses to poorly done studies which were eventually retracted.  Engelbrecht states that the Virology Journal study lacks validity because the science behind SARS-CoV-1 & 2 is totally unfounded and was a cell culture study, not a patient trial.
  25. Fauci is all about Big Pharma – not life-style factors. Robert F. Kennedy points out that while HCQ costs a measly 30 cents, it completes with Moderna’s vaccine which Fauci’s agency owns half the patent and has invested $500 million in taxpayer money.  He is aligned with numerous powerful industries and sits on the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation Council, which in turn invests millions directly into Fauci’s NIAID. But Fauci maintains he is apolitical and neutral.
  26. Fauci, the highest paid employee in the U.S. Federal Government makes about $80K more than the president of the United States. In 2021, he released the book ‘Expect the Unexpected: Ten Lessons on Truth, Service, and the Way Forward,’ and recently  sold his memoir for nearly $5M to Penguin Random. He is also to appear in a Disney-backed documentary keeping him prominently in the public eye even after retirement. His replacement, Hugh Auchincloss is also an animal experimenter who has lobbied to build more risky biolabs and has been Fauci’s right-hand man for the last 16 years.
  27. There is a petition circulating titled #Fire Fauci.

Go here for a powerful video exposing Fauci.

A deadly new virus is discovered…there’s no treatment or cure…it’s highly contagious…everyone is a potential victim…the world is at risk from asymptomatic super spreaders…new clusters of cases reported daily…Everyone must get tested even though the tests are unreliable…positive antibody tests are called “infections” and “cases” even when the patient has no symptoms…every politician gets involved…media hysteria in high gear…activists demand salvation from government and Big Pharma…Billions of dollars are authorized for fast track drug and vaccine research…simple, effective remedies are rejected while expensive, dangerous ones are pushed……presumptive diagnoses…exaggerated death statistics…falsified death certificates…

Sound familiar?

It’s been done many times by Tony Fauci.
This is the first and only film to put Fauci where he belongs: squarely in the middle of the AIDS fraud story.

Fauci’s Pandemic: How He Caused It & Uses It

http://  Approx. 8 Min.

Oct. 22, 2020

By Dr. Breggin

Based on the in-depth scientific and historical report, “Fauci’s COVID-19 Treachery with Chilling Ties to the Chinese Military” on Breggin.com in the Coronavirus Resource Center. https://breggin.com/coronavirus-resou… The video and the scientific report that will change how you think about COVID-19.

STORY AT-A-GLANCE

Found here:  https://articles.mercola.com/sites/articles/archive/2020/10/30/dr-anthony-fauci-coronavirus-chinese-communist-party.aspx?

  • A report by Dr. Peter Breggin reveals Dr. Anthony Fauci’s ties to the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) and globalists who have profited from the pandemic measures promoted by him as the leader of the U.S. Coronavirus Task Force
  • Fauci has been the major force behind research activities that enabled the Chinese Communist Party to manufacture lethal SARS coronaviruses, which in turn led to the release — whether accidental or not — of SARS-CoV-2 from the Wuhan Institute of Virology
  • In collaboration with the CCP and the World Health Organization, Fauci initially suppressed the truth about the origins and dangers of the pandemic, thereby enabling the spread of the virus from China to the rest of the world
  • Fauci has supported and praised Director-General of the WHO, Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, a member of a Marxist-Leninist Ethiopian political party with a corrupt past and terrorist ties who has also been accused of covering up cholera outbreaks in Ethiopia
  • Fauci recently published a paper in which he dismisses the possibility that SARS-CoV-2 was created in and released from the Wuhan Institute of Virology, arguing instead for natural mutation. He also uses the pandemic to justify the “green new deal” and the globalist movement known as “the Great Reset”

Clinical Manifestations Associated with Bartonella henselae Infection in a Tropical Region

Affiliations expand

Abstract

Bartonella henselae is a zoonotic Gram-negative Bacillus associated with self-limited regional lymphadenopathy. In recent decades, an expanding spectrum of clinical manifestations has been described, in part, due to improved diagnostics. However, updated epidemiological data are sparse. We retrospectively reviewed the clinical features of 31 patients with B. henselae infection older than 15 years from 2005 to 2019, in the tropical Top End of Australia. Our annual disease incidence of 1.3 cases per 100,000 population is lower than that in the national database surveillances in the United States, but the hospitalization incidence of 0.9 per 100,000 population in our region is higher than those reported in the literature, with an average length of stay of 9 days. Patients were more commonly male, aboriginal, and aged less than 14 years (median age: 7 years), living in a rural setting with presentation during our monsoon season.

The disease spectrum included:

  • lymph node disease (74%)
  • organ peliosis
  • endocarditis
  • cutaneous lesions
  • parapharyngeal abscess
  • parotitis
  • neurologic and ocular syndromes

Lymph node disease was far commoner in children than the more serious systemic B. henselae infections associated with adults (P = 0.074).

Although no deaths were reported, significant morbidities were observed. Two endocarditis cases presented with glomerulonephritis, and hematological and neurological features mimicking vasculitis, and consequently received immunosuppressants. One case was only diagnosed after representation with serial embolic strokes.

Given the heterogeneity of disease manifestations with nonspecific symptoms and significant consequences, a timely and accurate diagnosis is needed to avoid unnecessary treatments or interventions.

___________________

**Comment**

Please note the endocarditis, which we are told is “rare” with Lyme disease. Bartonella can also bethe causative agent, which many doctors are also not looking for or educated on.

Bartonella mimicking vasculitis has also been seen:  https://madisonarealymesupportgroup.com/2020/07/03/case-of-cerebral-vasculitis-due-to-neurobartonellosis/

https://madisonarealymesupportgroup.com/2020/01/05/bartonella-endocarditis-masquerading-as-systemic-vasculitis-with-rapidly-progressive-glomerulonephritis/

The HPV vaccine has also caused vasculitis:  https://madisonarealymesupportgroup.com/2017/02/16/gardasil-vasculitis-msids/

I preface the following information with an important topic that many are unaware of: manufacturers often use other vaccines as “placebos” in vaccine trials.  This happened recently according to NVIC when a Brazilian physician died in the COVID-19 vaccine trial:  https://thevaccinereaction.org/2020/10/brazilian-doctor-dies-participating-in-astrazenecas-covid-19-vaccine-clinical-trial/

While many were quick to point out that according to unnamed sources, he died of COVID-19, the following was discovered:

It has since been reported that the man did receive the meningococcal vaccine used as a placebo in the trial instead of the experimental coronavirus vaccine, although no official confirmation has been released by AstraZeneca, which has cited privacy concerns for not making more information available to the public.1

Hopefully it is quite clear that using another vaccine as a placebo muddies the waters when determining vaccine safety.

The following details how ICAN is trying to change this important issue by demanding the FDA mandate that all clinical trials of COVID-19 vaccines use a placebo control, not another vaccine.

https://www.icandecide.org

The generals will tell you that wars are often won long before the battle actually begins or any shot is fired through planning, preparation, and foresight. ICAN’s tireless work over the last three years with regard to all vaccines has had a significant impact on the ongoing clinical trials and potential approval process for COVID-19 vaccines. This update provides a bit of that history and describes some of ICAN’s legal efforts with regard to a COVID-19 vaccine.

Companies assure their products are safe because they do not want to be sued for damages or get fined by regulators. When it comes to vaccines, however, neither of these checks exist. Unlike other consumer products, the companies earning billions of dollars from vaccines cannot be sued for harms caused by their vaccines; and the federal department responsible for assuring vaccine safety — the United States Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) — does not fulfill this duty because it would conflict with its duty to promote vaccines and defend against any claim that a vaccine causes harm in vaccine court.  

In short, there is nobody guarding the henhouse. It is in this vacuum that ICAN began its work in 2017. The logical place to begin was reviewing the clinical trials relied upon by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to license childhood vaccines. After conducting this review, ICAN sent a legal demand to HHS — the parent department of FDA — on October 12, 2017 asking it to “[p]lease explain how HHS justifies licensing any pediatric vaccine without first conducting a long-term clinical trial in which the rate of adverse reactions is compared between the subject group and a control group receiving an inert placebo?”

HHS responded on January 18, 2018, in a letter reviewed and approved by the FDA, claiming that “[c]ontrary to statements made on page two of your letter, many pediatric vaccines have been investigated in clinical trials that included a placebo.” HHS’s response also claimed that safety in these trials was reviewed for a significant duration, without specifying any duration. HHS and the FDA were about to have egg on their face.

ICAN responded on December 31, 2018 with a detailed chart containing every pediatric vaccine, citing to FDA documents, which indisputably proves that it was categorically false for HHS and the FDA to claim that “many pediatric vaccines have been investigated in clinical trials that included a placebo.” The reality is that none – save one – of the pediatric vaccines was licensed based on a placebo controlled clinical trial! ICAN’s response also pointed out the short safety review periods in these trials. ICAN even graciously provided HHS and the FDA an additional opportunity to provide proof that these clinical trials did include a placebo control. No proof has ever been provided.

This exchange between ICAN and HHS also covered a wide range of vaccine safety topics beyond the clinical trials used to justify licensure of pediatric vaccines. HHS could not, for any of these topics, provide proof or assurance that vaccines are safe or that they have been properly safety tested. 

To assure that every single scientist within the CDC, FDA, and NIH who has any involvement with vaccines knows about the information in these letters, ICAN sent every single one of those scientists their own package containing a copy of ICAN’s letter exchange with HHS. 

ICAN has also continued to relentlessly pursue the FDA about the inadequacy of the clinical trials it relied upon to license the pediatric vaccines currently injected into millions of children. For example, in a prior update, we explained our efforts concerning the only two Hepatitis B vaccines given to babies in America on their first day of life, including the petition we filed with the FDA demanding it withdraw the licenses for these vaccines until it conducts long-term placebo control trials of these products to assure their safety. ICAN also sued the FDA numerous times to force it to release clinical trial reports for other vaccines, including, for example, the chicken pox vaccine, which we explained in another recent legal update. 

The FDA is acutely aware that ICAN will not hesitate to sue if its reasonable demands regarding vaccine safety are ignored. In that regard, when the Phase III trial for AstraZeneca and the University of Oxford’s COVID-19 vaccine was underway in England using another vaccine (Menveo) as a control (instead of a placebo), we filed a forceful petition demanding that the FDA mandate that all clinical trials of COVID-19 vaccines use a placebo control as well as track safety long-term in a properly sized trial. 

Nine days after ICAN filed its petition, on June 30, 2020, the FDA changed course and issued emergency guidance to industry that all COVID-19 clinical trials must use a placebo control. 

ICAN, however, was not done fighting to assure that these clinical trials are properly conducted. On July 17, 2020, ICAN sued the FDA in federal court demanding the entire clinical trial report for Menveo, just in case the agency was considering permitting this vaccine as a control in the AstraZeneca trial to be conducted in the United States. On July 20, 2020, ICAN also filed a forceful amended petition with the FDA thanking it for requiring a placebo control group but demanding, among other things, that it also require that these clinical trials track all adverse events during the entire duration of the trial – not just for a limited time period. 

Not long thereafter, in mid-September, in a highly unusual move, the full clinical trial protocols for the COVID-19 vaccines for which ICAN filed its petitions were released to the public. See copies for each of the manufacturer’s vaccines: AstraZeneca, Pfizer, Moderna, and Johnson & Johnson. Those protocols revealed that some of ICAN’s demands regarding the duration for tracking vaccine safety had been met. 

Not fully satisfied, ICAN filed superseding petitions for the four COVID-19 vaccines currently undergoing Phase III clinical trials in the United States on October 16, 2020. A link to each petition is available here: AstraZeneca, Pfizer, Moderna, and Johnson & Johnson. Therein, ICAN repeats the vaccine safety demands that have still not been fulfilled. If these additional demands are not met, ICAN has reserved the right to take the FDA to court to enforce these demands.

ICAN’s legal team, headed by Aaron Siri, in addition to the above, has also taken various other steps with regard to COVID-19 vaccines. For example, the legal team filed a formal demand for the removal of the head of the purported “independent” board overseeing the clinical trials of the leading COVID-19 vaccines because of his incestuous conflicts with pharmaceutical companies. 

ICAN has also served dozens of Freedom of Information Act requests on the CDC, FDA, and NIH seeking information regarding COVID-19 vaccines, including, for example, requests that resulted in obtaining documents which substantiated that officials within NIH stand to earn millions of dollars from the sales of a COVID-19 vaccine. As another example, ICAN has also received over 1,000 pages of emails sent by Dr. Fauci and is in the process of obtaining thousands more. ICAN has also released a “Should I Receive a COVID-19 Vaccine?” flyer and has added a “Report a COVID-19 Vaccine Injury” link to its website and is launching a broad public campaign around this issue.

There are numerous other legal and non-legal efforts ICAN is engaged in with regard to COVID-19 vaccines that are not yet ready to be discussed here but will be featured in future updates. 

Just as the pharmaceutical companies will never rest when it comes to promoting and selling their vaccine products, we will never rest in exposing the truth regarding these products or in demanding full transparency and full informed consent for any and all vaccines. 

If you would like to provide the FDA a comment in support or against any of the petitions we have filed with the FDA regarding COVID-19 vaccines, you can do so here: AstraZeneca, Pfizer, Moderna, and Johnson & Johnson
Stand for vaccine truth and help us keep winning with your tax-deductible gift of $20, $30, $50, or $100 or more today!

https://madisonarealymesupportgroup.com/2020/10/24/new-court-created-for-covid-vaccine-injuries/  Excerpt:

  • Not only will pharmaceutical companies developing and marketing COVID-19 vaccines be shielded from what should be their liability in the civil court system, but federal compensation will likely be difficult to obtain, as it is in the existing vaccine court created under the National Childhood Vaccine Injury Act of 1986

  • The establishment of a preemptive COVID vaccine court could be a sign that the government foresees many lawsuits related to this fast-tracked vaccine in the near future

  • The expansion of a federal vaccine court to include makers of experimental COVID-19 vaccines allows the irresponsible sale and marketing of vaccines that have been poorly tested and formulated because the manufacturers have no liability and “nothing to lose”

By Sebastian Rushworth, M.D.

How deadly is covid-19?

Health and medical information grounded in science
covid a deadly pandemic?

September 2020 was the least deadly month in Swedish history, in terms of number of deaths per 100,000 population. Ever. And I don’t mean the least deadly September, I mean the least deadly month. Ever. To me, this is pretty clear evidence of two things. First, that covid is not a very deadly disease. And second, that Sweden has herd immunity.

When I posted this information on my twitter feed, the response from proponents of further lockdown was that the reason September was such an un-deadly month, was because everyone has already died earlier in the pandemic. To me, that seems like a pretty self-defeating argument. Why?

Because 6,000 people have died of covid in Sweden, a country with a population of 10,000,000 people. 6,000 people is 0.06% of the population. If it is enough for that tiny a fraction of a population to die of a pandemic for the pandemic to peter out so completely that a country can have its least deadly month ever, then the pandemic was never that deadly to begin with.

Has Covid killed off the flu? Experts pose the intriguing question as influenza cases nosedive by 98% across the globe

  • Many feared ‘twin-demic’ of flu, which kills thousands, and Covid-19 this winter 
  • Thirty million people – 20 per cent more than normal – now eligible for the flu jab
  • ‘Surveillance’ data collected by WHO shows how flu cases plummeted globally

It was feared by many to be the perfect winter storm, a nightmare situation that would push our health service over the edge: the ‘twin-demic’ of flu, which kills about 10,000 Britons every year, and a second deadly wave of Covid-19.

Such was the concern that the Government rolled out the biggest flu vaccination programme in British history.

Thirty million people – 20 per cent more than normal, and now including all over-50s – are eligible for this year’s jab.

Take up of the vaccine is already the highest it has ever been in the over-65s and young children, according to the latest reports.

There’s just one curious problem: flu, it seems, has all but vanished.

https://www.health.harvard.edu/blog/illness-related-fatigue-more-than-just-feeling-tired-

Illness-related fatigue: More than just feeling tired

A common refrain during the COVID-19 pandemic is, “I’m so tired.” After months of adjusted living and anxiety, people are understandably weary. Parents who haven’t had a break from their kids are worn out. Those trying to juggle working from home with homeschooling are stretched thin. Between concerns about health, finances, and isolation, everyone is feeling some level of additional stress during this unusual time, and that’s tiring. We all could use a good, long nap — or better yet, a vacation.

But while a break would be nice, most people — except those who are actually sick with COVID-19 or other illnesses — are able to push through their fatigue, precisely because they aren’t sick. “Tired” is a nebulous word that covers a broad spectrum of levels of fatigue. A crucial distinction, however, is between regular fatigue and illness-related fatigue.

Regular fatigue

Everyday fatigue that is not illness-related starts with a baseline of health. You may feel sleepy, you may in fact be sleep-deprived, or your body and mind may be worn out from long hours, exertion, or unrelenting stress — but you don’t feel sick. Your muscles and joints don’t ache like when you have the flu. You are capable of getting out of bed and powering through the day, even if you don’t want to. A cup of coffee or a nap might perk you up.

This type of fatigue is usually related to external factors: lack of sleep, stress, an extra-hard workout. But internally, your body is working well: your glands and organs are operating properly; infection is not depleting your body of energy; your nervous system may be overtaxed, but it’s not frayed from actual impairment.

Illness-related fatigue

When I was acutely ill with persistent Lyme, babesiosis, and ehrlichiosis (all tick-borne illnesses), as well as chronic Epstein-Barr virus, a good night’s sleep did nothing. Naps were staples of my day that helped me survive but didn’t improve my energy. Drinking a cup of coffee was akin to treating an ear infection with candy. No matter how much I rested, my exhaustion persisted.

I felt like I had the flu, except it lasted for years. My whole body ached. I suffered migraine headaches. I had hallucinogenic nightmares. Exercise was out of the question; at times, I was literally too tired to walk up a flight of stairs or sit at the dinner table. I couldn’t concentrate, unable to read or watch TV. Sometimes I was too tired to talk.

There was no pushing through this level of fatigue, because it was caused by internal factors: illnesses that were ravaging my body. Only when they were adequately treated did I start to get my energy back.

For me, the root causes were bacterial infections (Lyme, ehrlichiosis), a parasite (babesiosis), and a virus (Epstein-Barr). Profound fatigue may also result from a host of other diseases and conditions, including chronic fatigue syndrome, fibromyalgia, and multiple sclerosis.

Is it everyday fatigue or illness-related fatigue?

When determining whether your tiredness is everyday fatigue or illness-related, consider the following questions:

  • Do you feel worn out, or do you feel sick?
  • Have you experienced this before, or does it feel more extreme or unrelenting?
  • When you lessen the load of external factors (work, stress, long days) does the fatigue improve, or does it persist?
  • Do you feel refreshed after a good night’s sleep or a nap?
  • Can you go about your day, or is it impossible to get out of bed?
  • Has the fatigue persisted longer than you would expect?
  • Are you experiencing other symptoms that might point to illness?

The bottom line

No one knows your body better than you do. You know what feels normal, and you know what you feel like when you’re sick. If you are not responding to regular fatigue remedies, your fatigue has persisted over time, you have other symptoms, or you just don’t feel right, it’s probably time to call your doctor.

**Comment**

I had a Lyme/MSIDS patient state, “I could fall asleep standing up.”  Yep, that about describes it.

The author doesn’t mention it, but a large part of the problem is the unrelenting insomnia.  You would do anything to sleep at night.  But you can’t.

The great news is that appropriate tick-borne disease treatment fixes this or improves it greatly. There are also medications both natural and pharmaceutical that can help.
