Hudson Valley Fears Lyme Disease Explosion Thanks to COVID-19

April 21, 2020

By Boris

Officials are warning residents to be on the lookout for the signs of Lyme Disease.

With the coronavirus pandemic forcing everyone into isolation, government leaders are reminding everyone that ticks do not practice social distancing. Dutchess County Behavioral and Community Health Commissioner Dr. Anil Vaidian warned that COVID-19 may be taking focus away from another, very real threat.  (See link for article)

I truly despise the title of this article.  COVID-19 has nothing at all to do with a potential Lyme disease explosion.  Media appears hell-bent upon stirring up fear. COVID-19 is not to blame for everything under the sun.  It reminds me of this:

Dr. SHIVA Ayyadurai, MIT PhD Crushes Dr. Fauci Exposes Birx, Clintons, Bill Gates, And The W.H.O

I’ve had my eye on Dr. Shiva for a while now and while I appreciate his information, I also realize he is running for U.S. Senate in Massachusetts. This post in no way endorses him or his political ideas, but he is highly qualified to speak about COVID-19.  BTW: if you haven’t figured it out yet, politics and science intersect with COVID-19. There’s vested interests all over the place and authorities need to be held accountable. In fact, there’s a distinct similarity between how Lyme and COVID-19 are being handled. Shiva represents a outsider’s take on this issue and he deserves to be heard.

Shiva has a background in modern systems science, information technology and eastern and traditional systems of medicine to develop an integrative framework linking eastern and western systems of medicine. He has important points that deserve consideration.

Key Take-aways:

  • Fauci is embedded into the scientific establishment.
  • It is the overactive, dysfunctional, weakened, immune system that overreacts which is causing damage to the body. This truth leads to a solution that has nothing to do with vaccines and shutting down the country.
  • Medical school education is a Big pharma education.
  • Both Fauci and Birx are deeply embedded in the Big Pharma model of medicine and solution which is vaccines and drugs.
  • Fauci architected and built his entire career upon the BIG LIE that HIV causes AIDS. (Shiva states it’s the suppression of the immune system that allows all sorts of external things inside the body)
  • At 4:00 Shiva discusses the difference between how H1N1 was handled vs COVID-19 (There is an economic discussion and he states that there’s a political reason behind why these two viruses are being treated differently. He also discusses vaccine mandate.)
  • At 7:34 Shiva responds to how they are recording COVID-19 deaths. He states this is collusion. For more on this: https://madisonarealymesupportgroup.com/2020/04/11/hospitals-paid-extra-to-list-patients-as-covid19-3x-as-much-if-the-patient-is-on-a-ventilator/
  • He talks about how ventilators are causing damage (80-90% deaths).
  • He states that “One size does not fit all,” and that only the compromised should be isolated. He states Fauci’s approach is Medieval.  Research has shown that isolating people is a detriment for obesity, smoking, and heart disease. Isolation has been shown to increase the likelihood for viral infection due to its known effect of down regulating anti-viral compounds.
  • Vitamin D is an antimicrobial. Getting outside for natural sunlight is very helpful.
  • Building up the immune system is not what Fauci and Birx talk about. They only talk about vaccines and control.
  • At 13:18 Shiva gives the “real solution” for COVID-19. He goes through history with scurvy, pelagra, etc. which are diseases caused by deficiencies.
  • He states our immune system is the key to health and that vitamins D and A are very important to help the immune system. Fauci and Birx won’t ever discuss these things because it doesn’t fit their Big Pharma paradigm.

For more on Dr. Shiva:

Dr. V.A. Shiva Ayyadurai, the inventor of email and polymath, holds four degrees from MIT, is a world-renowned systems scientist, inventor and entrepreneur. He is a Fulbright Scholar, Lemelson-MIT Awards Finalist, India’s First Outstanding Scientist and Technologist of Indian Origin, Westinghouse Science Talent Honors Award recipient, and a nominee for the U.S. National Medal of Technology and Innovation. His love of medicine and complex systems began in India when he became intrigued with medicine at the age of five as he observed his grandmother, a farmer and healer in the small village of Muhavur in South India, apply Siddha, India’s oldest system of traditional medicine, to heal and support local villagers. These early experiences inspired him to pursue the study of modern systems science, information technology and eastern and traditional systems of medicine to develop an integrative framework linking eastern and western systems of medicine.

A scientist who adapted his veterinary lab to test for disease among humans rather than salmon is being celebrated for helping the Faroe Islands avoid coronavirus deaths, where a larger proportion of the population has been tested than anywhere in the world.

The north Atlantic archipelago currently has only one person in hospital with Covid-19 and it is one of three European countries, along with Georgia and Liechtenstein to so far not have any deaths from the virus. (See link for article)

This article shows how accurate testing could have prevented our entire nation being locked down. Unfortunately, true to form the CDC had to have its own test:  https://madisonarealymesupportgroup.com/2020/03/27/cdcs-deadly-testing-fiasco-centralization-of-public-health-authority-a-threat-to-national-security/

It appears the the CDC is synonymous with testing fiascos – something Lyme patients are all too aware of.

Please note Jennifer tested negative for COVID-19.

She states that her primary care doctor stated there’s a lot of false negatives and Jennifer states there’s a 30% false negative rate.  I posted on that here:  https://madisonarealymesupportgroup.com/2020/03/21/study-shows-covid-19-testing-as-bad-as-lyme-msids-testing/ as well as the fact that it was recently discovered that the CDC’s test is contaminated WITH COVID-19, rendering it useless:  https://madisonarealymesupportgroup.com/2020/04/23/cdc-covid-19-testing-contaminated-with-covid-19/

She also states she was on hydroxychloroquine at the time of testing which could have skewed the results, but clinically she had all the COVID-19 symptoms.

She initially had vomiting, fever, cough, and shortness of breath.  Six days after being fever-free, the fever came back as well as the shortness of breath. At about week 3 she lost her sense of taste and smell. Her fever came and left 5 times. She is tracking an improvement of symptoms over time. Overall, she’s been fighting it about a month.

At about 9:00 Dr. Cameron speaks about testing. He states that it’s important where they take the swab as the virus can harbor in different locations. He also discusses until a good antibody test is available, COVID-19 patients, similarly to Lyme patients, need to be clinically diagnosed.

Dr. Cameron has not had any Lyme/MSIDS patient with COVID-19 be hospitalized.  He states typically Lyme patients are ill with COVID-19 for 10-15 days.  He has seen a range in severity within patients.

He is not convinced Lyme/MSIDS patients are more likely to get COVID-19.

Cameron also states that Lyme patients are ahead of the curve as they have already learned so much about health, isolation, the lack of answers by doctors, etc. while in the journey of Lyme/MSIDS.

At around 24:00 he expresses concerns about the potential of chronic issues with those who recover from COVID-19.  He says to “stay tuned.”

Fallout from the agency’s failed rollout of national coronavirus kits two months ago continues to haunt U.S. efforts to combat the spread of the highly infectious virus.

Sloppy laboratory practices at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention caused contamination that rendered the nation’s first coronavirus tests ineffective, federal officials confirmed on Saturday.

Two of the three C.D.C. laboratories in Atlanta that created the coronavirus test kits violated their own manufacturing standards, resulting in the agency sending tests that did not work to nearly all of the 100 state and local public health labs, according to the Food and Drug Administration.  (See link for article)

This is just rich. On March 21 I posted that COVID-19 testing is riddled with problems:  https://madisonarealymesupportgroup.com/2020/03/21/study-shows-covid-19-testing-as-bad-as-lyme-msids-testing/

Since I checked over a month ago, this is what the actual CDC website states about its COVID-19 test – up to today:

International Reagent Resource (IRR) began distribution of the test kits to states, but shortly thereafter performance issues were identified related to a problem in the manufacturing of one of the reagents which led to laboratories not being able to verify the test performance.  https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/php/testing.html?

Now, does that sound like their very tests are contaminated with the virus they are looking for?  No?  I didn’t think so.

On April 4, I also posted that this test contamination occurred in the UK:  https://madisonarealymesupportgroup.com/2020/04/04/coronavirus-testing-kits-heading-to-the-uk-found-to-be-contaminated-with-covid-19/  Now I’m wondering where their test kits were made!

Key quote on the finding by a FDA expert on the CDC:

He found an astonishing lack of expertise in commercial manufacturing and learned that nobody was in charge of the entire process, they said.

No! Say it isn’t so!

This lack of scientific rigor to laboratory standards is rife within the CDC. The entire organization lacks any credibility as Lyme patients are well aware, due to their mishandling Lyme/MSIDS for over 40 years – along with everything else they touch.  

In the article we learn that:

  • researchers came and went without changing their coats
  • tested ingredients in the same room where researchers were working on positive coronavirus samples
The only reason we learn of this debacle is after media outlets requested public disclosure.
CDC labs are currently embroiled in a federal investigation by the Department of HHS.

All I can say is it’s about time.

Don’t ever expect the CDC to come clean on anything. They have lied so often they believe their own lies:  https://madisonarealymesupportgroup.com/2020/04/03/cdc-centers-for-damaged-credibility/ A literal rap-sheet on CDC lies – although far from complete.

The article also notes that the FDA is under fire for not initially allowing commercial labs to create their own tests. This is a common problem in the US. The direct competition between our federal government and the private sector regarding testing for public health. Until this is addressed, we will continue to see more fraud and collusion:  https://madisonarealymesupportgroup.com/2020/03/27/cdcs-deadly-testing-fiasco-centralization-of-public-health-authority-a-threat-to-national-security/

For a long read on CDC blame games and interagency problems:  https://www.wsj.com/articles/health-chiefs-early-missteps-set-back-coronavirus-response-11587570514 Key quote:

In recent weeks, some administration officials have become so concerned about the lack of agency coordination that the director of the White House Domestic Policy Council began convening his own meetings with agency leaders at HHS, including from the Food and Drug Administration and the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, or CMS.

BTW: The two players in this power squabble consist of Dr. Azar who was top lobbyist for Eli Lilly & Co., an Indianapolis-based pharmaceutical company, and Dr. Robert Redfield, director of the CDC who was under investigation for research fraud: https://madisonarealymesupportgroup.com/2020/04/10/dod-leak-birx-cdc-director-investigated-for-scientific-fraud-misconduct/

So there you have it folks.  More of the same from the HHS, from which the CDC stems.

The CDC’s abysmal handling of testing is directly behind our current plight. We can thank them for the stay at home orders which possibly could have been avoided all together or rationed to those who are immunocompromised.
