Doubts have been raised over a much-lauded Oxford University COVID-19 vaccine which experts say could fail to prevent individuals catching the virus, after trial results emerged.
The government has promised to invest £20 million ($24m) to support teams at Oxford University engaged in the global race to find a vaccine.
However, following the publication of detailed trial results last week, it was found that the vaccine was unable to prevent monkeys from catching the COVID-19 virus. (See Link for Article)
James Lyons Weiler, PhD also gives the following chilling prediction:
When Phase I trials become Phase II trials people will start getting infected w/SARS-CoV-2 following vaccination and start dying at even higher rates due to disease enhancement caused by Pathogenic Priming from SARS-CoV-2 vaccination – something the vaccine developers SHOULD have tested for in animal studies, but skipped.
While more and more places roll out mandatory mask policies the facts suggest that they may not be providing us with the protection that we think they are.
Reflect On:What’s your stance on mask wearing in public places? Have you done the research on both sides to come to an informed rather than fear-based decision?
Initially I respected the call by my local Governor in Connecticut to protect our fellow citizens. Deep down I thought it was a little foolish to mandate masks, but love all people and thought I would wear one to help others feel safer. Then, I started digging a little further into the scientific literature. I have discovered that masks are neither safe nor effective. So, as schools prepare to create policies for children returning to school in the fall, we must keep these things in mind. (See link for article)

This is an important topic that needs to be discussed. Policy is being set forcing people into wearing face-masks – in essence civil liberties are being taken away and coercion is taking place. You have every right to question policy that infringes upon your rights.
People laboring outdoors, lifting heavy things and working hard are wearing masks. Servers at restaurants are wearing masks while they do physical labor for hours at a time. Impeding air flow while doing physical labor is unwise. Interestingly, none of the people in the restaurant I was in had masks on – just the employees doing all the work!
I’ve never had an issue with those who choose to wear a mask. That is their civil liberties at work. What I do have an issue with is bullying from those who feel they have the higher ground and draconian policy infringing upon individual freedoms of health people just going about their business.
Surgeons and medical people wear masks for obvious reasons. Those working with chemicals, dust, and other things that hurt the lungs wears masks. But, there is no historical precedent for the healthy population to wear masks, and there are good, scientific reasons for this.
Dr. Jeff Barke (30 year board certified MD) blows a hole in the MSM’s fake Corona Virus narrative and explains why it’s so important to get the country open as quickly and safely as possible. Dr. Barke has received personal attacks for his stance.
People are dying waiting for surgeries that are considered “unessential.”
The Suicide rate is is the highest since the Great Depression.
30 million Americans are now unemployed which means government dependency is at an all time high.
Drug abuse is high.
Spouse abuse is high.
Child abuse is high.
Felons are being let out of jail.
Many of the restrictions are over-board, illogical, and arbitrary.
Health care shouldn’t be about politics, but they have made hydroxychloroquine a political issue.
He points out the idiocy of being able to stand in line at Costco but not be able to stand in line to vote.
A new grassroots organization of doctors is telling the nation it needs a second opinion about the way to handle this pandemic medically and mentally.
During a media call, several of these doctors spoke of horrible medical results for people because of excessive panic over the coronavirus. They also told of harm done to ill or injured people because the medical world has been largely cut off to them while almost all resources have been redirected to deal exclusively with COVID-19.
Dr. Simone Gold is an emergency room physician documenting these harms as she’s contacted fellow medical professionals across the country and helped form this new group A Doctor A Day. (See link for article)

Secondary effects are finally beginning to be reported – although, this is just the tip of the ice-berg.
Important quote:
“The volume in the emergency department is incredibly low. Maybe 60 percent of what it usually is. And this is across the nation. Everybody’s had the same experience, excluding the New York metropolitan area.” Dr. Simone Gold, ER physician
Gold goes onto state they are firing 50% of their technicians, and laying off 35% of their ER physicians.
Dr. Jeff Barke, a primary care physician in Newport Beach, California also points out the illogic of isolating healthy people – which will hamper herd immunity. He argues schools should open up.
Barke puts much of the blame on the media for stigmatizing being positive for COVID.
Psychiatrist Dr. Mark McDonald states his patients are in a state of panic, drinking again, and thinking of committing suicide. He feels what we are seeing is a ‘pandemic of hysteria,’ not a medical pandemic. Worse of all, there’s nowhere for these patients to go. All the AA meetings and support groups are gone.
When the L.A. School District went to an online system, 15,000 students just disappeared and 40,000 were not in daily contact with their teachers.
Barke states that waiting on a vaccination or a cure in order to open up schools makes no scientific sense whatever.
If we can learn anything from the current world-wide infection, it is that we need to take care of ourselves. If we make ourselves resilient…if we maximize our biochemical health, we will be able to resist diseases, viral and otherwise. Data from around the world indicate that old, frail people and people with serious illnesses like diabetes and emphysema are overwhelmingly the ones that get seriously ill and die from the present virus, and indeed, from influenza outbreaks every year. Very healthy people and children may only experience mild symptoms or none at all. In addition, more and more studies, have revealed that the lower a person’s vitamin D level, the more susceptible the victim becomes to serious illness or death. Deficiencies of other nutrients like zinc, C, A, Omega-3 also weaken us.
The other day, my daughter was at a grocery store and saw an older man with a mask at the checkout. The young man bagging groceries was also wearing a mask; the older man then complimented the employee for wearing a mask. Most of the people in the store, including the cashier and my daughter, were not wearing masks. My daughter then noticed that the mask wearing customer had one item in his cart – a case of soda pop. This got my daughter thinking about how our focus has been really skewed – from taking care of ourselves and thus preventing or minimizing the results of an infection (things we have control over) to worrying about wearing masks, gloves and drowning ourselves in hand sanitizer.
When I started my practice in 1983, I entitled it Waters Preventive Medical Center. I had adopted the idea that “we are what we eat” and also, how we digest that food. In addition, I also learned early on that in the last century, humans have intoxicated the Earth and themselves with 10’s of thousands of new synthetic chemicals and millions of tons of toxic metals.
Because of my extensive background in molecular biology and biochemistry and also serendipitous encounters with patients suffering from unique clinical syndromes who couldn’t be effectively treated with the standard therapies I learned in medical training, I centered my practice on replenishing the body with unprocessed, whole organic food. Body systems can’t be repaired without adequate biological building blocks – nutrients – vitamins, minerals and essential fatty and amino acids.
I also adopted various interventions to rid the body of the myriad of metallic and organic toxins that every one of us has accumulated. This is done primarily through the use of chelation therapy to remove toxic metals like lead, cadmium, aluminum, mercury, arsenic. The organic poisons from plasticizers to pesticides are best removed by sauna therapy. Of course, we also use various herbs and gastrointestinal detox procedures.
An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure, but most patients that come to me are already suffering with significant symptoms or overt disease states. While nutritional interventions and detoxification procedures are the center piece of treatment, we go into detail to uncover and address the various underpinnings of their condition.
Like all physicians, we start with a thorough history and physical. This includes a look at their family, occupational and dental histories. Risk factors are thus identified that are contributing to their complaints.
We then dig deeper through extensive laboratory evaluation. Most MD’s look at basic tests: blood counts, chemistry panel, cholesterol panel and maybe a thyroid test. This isn’t nearly enough to understand and treat most illnesses. For example, do you know your vitamin D level? This “vitamin” is actually a steroid hormone that activates 100’s of genes related to bone health, immunity, neurological and psychological function, blood sugar regulation and much more. In fact, virtually every cell has receptors for the active form of vitamin D.
We also measure trace elements like zinc and copper; iron status – too much is as dangerous as not enough; fatty acid content of cell membranes; markers of free radical damage and, of course, endocrine functions. The later includes evaluation of adrenal, thyroid and sex hormone biology.
2500 years ago the Father of Western Medicine, Hippocrates said: “All disease begins in the gut.” The scientific work done over past decades has documented his statement to be absolutely true. Gut health is related to every system of the body. The series of organs from your mouth to your colon contain the organs of digestion and also a population of microorganisms numbering 10-fold our own cells. The scientific library Pubmed (The National Library of Medicine) at last look listed 70,734 scientific treatises on the topic of the relationship between this “virtual” organ and every cell and tissue in our body.
We evaluate the members of this digestive community – both beneficial and pathogenic – the capacity of the digestive juices to break down our food; the presence of inflammation; the production of the vitally important short chain fatty acids, synthesized by our bacterial partners and the immune status of the gut.
After the lab tests are obtained, we advise a nutritional regimen to regain and maintain your health. This is not a diet! It is a return to your ancestral way of eating. We help you individualize this to fit your lifestyle and medical needs. The most important thing to do is eliminate the toxic substance called sugar.
We also begin correcting your chemistry with nutritional supplements, herbal medicine, endocrine balancing molecules and in some cases, small doses of pharmaceuticals such as low doses of the immune-regulating agent naltrexone. We also address the pharmaceuticals you are presently taking and attempt, over time, to reduce or eliminate them if possible.
In summary, if we can take anything away from the current situation, let it be the need to have robust health. Real health gives resilience and resistance to disease. Prevention.
New Study: Hydroxychloroquine + Zinc Greatly Reduces COVID-19 Health Risk
Published on
Written by dcwhispers.com
While the main stream media yet again is pushing recycled headlines about a New York “study” of very ill patients who were NOT actually given the combination of hydroxychloroquine and zinc which concluded these near-death patients did no better or worse when given the drug, another study showing a very different result was largely ignored by these same media outlets.
Imagine that.
Check out this headline coming out of New York as well which showed the combination of hydroxychloroquine and zinc slashed the risk of death from the coronavirus by nearly half.
NEW YORK – Researchers at NYU’s Grossman School of Medicine found patients given the antimalarial drug hydroxychloroquine along with zinc sulphate and the antibiotic azithromycin were 44 percent less likely to die from the coronavirus.
“Researchers at NYU’s Grossman School of Medicine found patients given the antimalarial drug hydroxychloroquine along with zinc sulphate and the antibiotic azithromycin were 44 percent less likely to die from the coronavirus.
“Certainly we have very limited options as far as what we have seen work for this infection so anything that may work is very exciting,” said Dr. Joseph Rahimian, Infectious Disease Specialist at NYU Langone Health.”
The study looked at the records of 932 COVID-19 patients treated at local hospitals with hydroxychloroquine and azithromycin.
More than 400 of them were also given 100 milligrams of zinc daily.
Researchers Said The Patients Given Zinc Were One And A Half Times More Likely To Recover, Decreasing Their Need For Intensive Care.
If one were to do an online news search right now for similar studies as above you will find story after story on the recycled New York study that showed no benefit from hydroxychloroquine while this other study (also from New York) that indicates the hydroxychloroquine + zinc combination shows remarkable promise, is receiving almost zero media coverage.
This is the same combination that has been touted by physicians all across America and the world as proving highly effective and yet here in the U.S. there are forces both in government and the media who continue to push this success to the side while also pushing yet more fear and panic of the disease.
Did you know that in Italy, one of the nations hardest hit by Covid 19, once doctors started initiating mass use of hydroxychloroquine and zinc, the death rate plummeted from a high of nearly a thousand a day to less than 200? This drug combination protocol has been repeated in other nations like South Korea, France, Bahrain, Turkey, Brazil, etc., with similar rates of success there as well as outlined in this excerpt from an April 21st scientific journal release:
“On March 23, 2020 a physician (Vladimir Zelenko) in Monroe, New York state, published online similar excellent outcomes on treating his patients with shortness of breath and any patient in the high-risk category with HCQ, azithromycin and zinc sulfate for five days in order to prevent hospitalization.
On April 17, 2020 doctors from a health care provider focused on mostly elderly and chronic patients in Brazil confirmed Raoul’s and Zelenko’s findings reporting that out of 636 symptomatic outpatients of the 224 who refused treatment (control group), 12 were hospitalized (5.4%), and of these 12 hospitalized, 5 patients died (41%) [12]. On the other hand, of the 412 outpatients treated with HCQ and azithromycin, only 8 were hospitalized (1.94%), and no deaths were observed. In case of early treatment (<7 days of symptoms) only 1.17% of treated patients needed hospitalization, while the percentage raised to 3.2% for late treatment (>7 days of symptoms). These outcomes were even more remarkable considering that patients in the treatment groups had higher prevalence of comorbidities including diabetes, immunosuppression state and stroke [12]. “
Again, why is there such push-back going on in the United States from the far-left media to dismiss what appears to be the undeniable effectiveness of hydroxychloroquine + zinc in combatting Covid-19?
Something very weird is going on here and people have been dying by the thousands because of it.
Good news, possibly life-saving news, is being pushed aside while bad news, not matter how flawed or biased, is put front and center in an effort to convince tens of millions that there is currently no real treatment options for the coronavirus even as so much data out there appears to say that is simply not so.
Approximately $70 million in U.S. taxpayer funding began Gilead’s partnership with the U.S. Army, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and National Institutes of Health (NIH) to develop remdesivir. Initially for treating Ebola, it failed to show benefit and was shelved. If remdesivir is used to treat COVID-19, Gilead shareholders, not the taxpayers, will profit.
HCQ directly competes with the favored profitable treatment of remdesivir.
In fact the article states that 9 of the 19 experts on the COVID-19 treatment panel have financial interests in Gilead Science.See the problem?
Gilead’s own press release revealed the side effect of acute respiratory failure in 6% of patients in the remdesivir five-day treatment group, and 10.7% of patients in the 10-day treatment group, clearly ominous findings with a drug designed to treat respiratory failure caused by COVID-19.
Dr. Steven Nissen, a Cleveland Clinic cardiologist who has conducted dozens of clinical trials, explained to The New York Times:
“The disclosure of trial results in a political setting, before peer review or publication, is very unusual. Scientists will need to see figures on harms associated with the drug in order to assess its benefits. … This is too important to be handled in such a sloppy fashion.”
Going back to 1997, Donald Rumsfeld chaired the Board of Directors at Gilead and after 2001 he held share packages valued at $5-25 Million. Gilead originally developed Tamiflu.George P Shultz, US Secretary of State also was on the board. He sold stocks at a value of more than $7 million. CA governor’s Pete Wilson’s wife also sat on the board.
“‘I don’t know of any biotech company that’s’ so politically well-connected [as Gilead],‘ Andrew McDonald, of the analyst firm Think Equity Partners, told Fortune.” (Source: “Virus Mania, How the Medical Industry Continually Invents Epidemics Making Billion Dollar Profits At Our Expense”)
