Cinnamon, Ginger, Sage, Rosemary
Peter,
Thanks so much for all your work and for relaying what all you
find. Re Quercetin, I found this from a gov't. site which is very
favorable but of course no in-depth studies have been done since it's
not funded by Big Pharma:
Quercetin, Inflammation and Immunity
Quercetin, Inflammation and Immunity
See this in the Abstract: "In vitro and some animal models have shown
that quercetin, a polyphenol derived from plants, has a wide range of
biological actions including anti-carcinogenic, anti-inflammatory and
antiviral activities ... ". [emphasis added]
Stan Y.
P.S. I should add that I'm apparently not a good candidate for
chloroquine and hydroxychloroquine since I read that people with
"retinopathy" shouldn't use them and in reading abt. that condition one
of the symptoms is if you have "floaters" in the visual field, which I
have had since childhood; thus the interest in alternative natural
remedies. Apparently, if I were to use a lot of the above 2, it could
lead to blindness. Doubt that would occur with quercetin, though.
Reply (Peter M.): Stan, I have had "floaters" for the last few years
(I'm getting old); but I'm taking Chloroquine. My tablets are 40 years
old; I'm one of those people who does not throw out old medicines. I
don't pay much attention to "use by" dates.
I'm taking 2x 250mg tablets once a week. But on day 2 I took an extra 2,
because there's a delayed effect. This dose is similar to that
recommended by the Government of India for HCQ to prevent Covid-19.
Knowing this dosage allows me to self-medicate with confidence;
otherwise I might have taken too much. The dosage to fight Covid-19
after you get it is much higher.
In 1980, after a visit to Papua New Guinea, I began getting big boils on
my legs. A government lab could find nothing. Antibiotics would get rid
of them for a while, but they kept coming back. Finally, a GP in my home
town (Sheffield, Tasmania), sent a specimen to a different lab, a
private one, and the result came back - Bubonic Plague. A rat had bitten
me on the toe, one night, in the Highlands.
The lab found that only one antibiotic would kill it - Gentomycin. But
there were possible adverse side-effects - to my hearing or sight, can't
remember which. Anyway, I took the Gentomycin, the boils went away, and
those side-effects have not yet happened. I still have a hollow on one
leg, where the biggest boil was.
I was told that my blood would be worth bottling - because it had
antibodies to the plague.
I'm not suggesting that you try the CQ or HCQ. But I eat plenty of
Bitter Melon (in stir-fries) when it's bearing, without noticeable
side-effects, and it contains quinine compounds.
I take herbal medicines for my Prostate: Stinging Nettle Root powder
(1/2 tsp a day), and Prosta Response, from Source Naturals, one tablet a
day. It's an expensive tablet, but it contains lots of ingredients,
including Quercetin. The recommended dose is 2 tablets, but I take only
one, on an empty stomach, first thing in the morning.
At present, my wife is in isolation. She's living in the house, and I'm
holed up in the cabin, which is like a granny flat. It has a covered BBQ
area which functions as an outdoor kitchen. The cabin is where I do this
newsletter on my old 2002 Apple Mac G4 running OS9. I need to keep
Javascript off, otherwise it gets hacked. But with Javascript off, most
sites do not work; yet it's amazing that quite a few do. I'm using the
Classilla browser, a Mozilla variant adapted for OS 9.

Here we found that quercetin inhibited influenza infection with a wide
spectrum of strains ... Mechanism studies identified that quercetin
showed interaction with the HA2 subunit. Moreover, quercetin could
inhibit the entry of the H5N1 virus using the pseudovirus-based drug
screening system. This study indicates that quercetin showing inhibitory
activity in the early stage of influenza infection provides a future
therapeutic option to develop effective, safe and affordable natural
products for the treatment and prophylaxis of IAV infections. ==
(3) Quercetin is a plant pigment (flavonoid) found in brightly-coloured
fruits & veg
Quercetin is a plant pigment (flavonoid). It is found in many plants and
foods, such as red wine, onions, green tea, apples, berries, Ginkgo
biloba, St. John's wort, American elder, and others. Buckwheat tea has a
large amount of quercetin. People use quercetin as a medicine.
Quercetin is most commonly taken by mouth to treat conditions of the
heart and blood vessels and prevent cancer. It is also used for
arthritis, bladder infections, and diabetes. But there is limited
scientific evidence to support these uses.
Quercetin has antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects which might help
reduce inflammation, kill cancer cells, control blood sugar, and help
prevent heart disease.
Comment (Peter M.): When it says, "Quercetin is a plant pigment", this
means that it found in brightly coloured (eg red or purple or yellow)
fruits & vegetables. "Red wine" means Black Grapes; "onions" means Red /
Purple Onions. "Apples" means Red Apples. Red Capsicum and Yellow
Capsicum would also contain Quercetin.

Hi Peter,
I have been meaning to ask about olive leaf, in a SHTF case, can one eat
the leaves, say ground up into a flour?
Do you have any ideas on natural foods to prevent NWO famine scenario?
I have plenty of blackberry, and wonder if the plant can be eaten?
Reply (Peter M.):
> natural foods to prevent NWO famine scenario?
Debt Forgiveness is what they need more than anything else.
Olive leaves are finicky to pick. I don't think you could make a flour
from them. Surely a tea made from Blackberry leaves would not do you any
harm. Blackberry is recognised as medicinal:
"The leaf, root, and fruit (berry) are used to make medicine. Blackberry
is used for treating diarrhea, fluid retention, diabetes, gout, and pain
and swelling (inflammation); and for preventing cancer and heart
disease. It is also used as a mouth rinse for mild mouth and throat
irritation."
Blackberry, Cranberry and Blueberry fruits contain Quercetin. Here is a
paper on it:

(6) Debt Forgiveness for Poor Countries
- by Peter Myers, March 26, 2020
Below is an email from George Soros' activist list Avaaz; I subscribe to
it to keep tabs on them. Usually I just delete their emails, but in this
particular case, I agree with what they're saying - and that it's important.
Poor countries are poor because rich countries use Tax Havens. That is,
companies based in the West ostensibly have their head office located in
a Tax Haven, and arrange their transactions so that third-would
countries get paid little for their resources, although they are sold
for high prices in the West. As a result, they are in debt.
Tax Havens and Transfer Pricing are an invisible form of piracy. My
remedy is that countries should repudiate debt owed to entities based in
Tax Havens, and deny the legitimacy of asset ownership based there.
The consequent poverty of third-world countries is one of the main
drivers of mass immigration from the third-world to the West.
The people who operate the Tax Havens are the 1% of the West, the
Rulling Class - based mainly in the City Of London, New York City,
Chicago, Seattle, San Francisco and LA.
The Open Borders policy they push threatens the livelihood of the 99% in
the West. This is truly a case of Class War.
The Identity Politics they promote, with the co-operation of the
'Progressive' Left, keeps the 99% divided. However, in this crisis, such
divisions are diminishing.
Michael Hudson says the IMF loots the Third World by foreclosing on $ loans:
In the video below, he explains how the IMF makes loans to other
countries, always in $ not local currency. The goal is not to help them
out, not to get interest on the loan, but to foreclose and seize the
assets which are collateral for the loan. These might be railroads,
water supply systems, electricity or other utilities. When the recipient
country's currency collapses, and it can't pay, the IMF seizes the
collateral, forcing Privatization of the asset. In that way, the USA
lives off the rest of the world.

(7) Debt Forgiveneness needed to save Millions in poor countries
Subject: [MARKETING] Covid-19: Stop the next wave
From: "Sarah Morrison - Avaaz" <avaaz@avaaz.org>

Dear friends,
"If the virus comes here, it's going to kill everyone."
South African electrician Nicholas Mashabele is terrified his poor
neighbourhood won't be able to cope with a Coronavirus outbreak.
Nicholas is not alone. If the virus spreads through some of the world's
poorest countries in Africa, Asia and South America, it is thought
MILLIONS of people could die.
In some of these places, healthcare systems are fragile. And people
simply can't afford to stay home!
But, the G20 leaders are meeting in days to work out a global response
to this crisis -- and there's something experts want them to do right
now to protect people like Nicholas: forgive the debt of the world's
poorest countries, and let governments use it to save lives.
Let's join this global call for debt forgiveness in the time of
coronavirus -- when 1 million sign, we'll deliver our voices directly to
decision-makers. Sign now!
Poor countries worldwide are saddled with billions of debt to rich
countries and institutions like the IMF. But right now, it makes much
more sense for them to inject this cash into their healthcare systems,
and help their people stay at home, so we can stop this virus spreading.
Pakistan and Ethiopia have already called for debt relief, and even the
World Bank has asked G20 leaders to offer debt relief to the world's
poorest countries so they can spend their precious resources on the
coronavirus pandemic.
Leaders have agreed to this before, but it took huge public pressure. In
2005, G8 finance ministers cancelled debt of the world's 18 most heavily
indebted countries to the tune of $40 billion! And After Ebola, the IMF
cancelled $100m debt for the world's worst hit places.
So, let's make this call massive, before it's too late! This is a global
crisis and we'll only beat it if countries everywhere can contain the
virus. Sign now and let's urge G20 leaders to urgently write-off debt
and save lives!
Tragedy can birth some of the most beautiful moments of our time, but
only if we take this time to join hands. After the II World War, 20
major powers wrote off most of Germany's debt, and the United Nations
was created for international peacekeeping. We can create something
visionary from this crisis, but we need to urge our world leaders to
rise and be the heroes this moment needs. Let's do it together.
With hope and determination,
Sarah, Alaphia, Christoph, Alice, Nell, Bert, and the rest of the Avaaz
team.
(8) Price of Chloroquine in USA: $3.87 for a 250-milligram tablet
A drug maker recently doubled the price of chloroquine — but in response
to the coronavirus pandemic, it's cutting it in half
By Lev Facher @levfacher
March 19, 2020
WASHINGTON — A company that makes a medication increasingly touted as a
promising coronavirus treatment, known as chloroquine, doubled the
drug's price in late 2019 — but says it has now cut the price in half,
to its original level, in response to the pandemic.
Rising Pharmaceuticals, a New Jersey-based drug company, hiked the price
of its chloroquine phosphate tablets 98% between December 2019 and
January 2020, according to data provided to STAT by the publishing and
analytics company Elsevier, from roughly $3.87 to $7.66 for a
250-milligram tablet.
The price hikes, however, came months before the coronavirus outbreak
morphed into a global pandemic, and well before physicians and
scientists came to believe chloroquine might prove an effective treatment.
In the past two weeks, Rising Pharmaceuticals slashed the price in half
as interest in the drug — normally used as an antimalarial — erupted.
"Once this whole issue started to explode with regard to the pandemic,
we implemented a price decrease to effectively revert back to 2015
pricing across all customers," Ira Baeringer, the company's chief
operating officer, said in an interview. After this story's publication,
Baeringer said the company was slashing the price again, to 20% below
the 2015 level.

(10) India bans export of HCQ, to keep stocks for its own population
India bans exports of drug touted by Trump as potential Covid-19 treatment
By Ed Silverman @Pharmalot
March 25, 2020
The Indian government has banned exports of hydroxychloroquine, the
decades-old malaria drug that was touted by President Trump as a
possible weapon in the fight against Covid-19, but has been in short supply.
In a notice posted Wednesday, the Directorate General of Foreign Trade
prohibited the medicine and any formulations from being shipped outside
of the country, except for companies that must fulfill existing
contracts and on humanitarian grounds that would have to be approved on
a case-by-case basis by the Ministry of External Affairs.
The move comes amid heightened speculation over the extent to which the
drug can be effective in combating the novel coronavirus, since clinical
trials have not been conducted for use in Covid-19 patients. The drug,
which is also approved to treat lupus and rheumatoid arthritis, is among
four medicines that will be the focus of a large study announced last
week by the World Health Organization.
In recent weeks, the medicine was the subject of several medical papers
suggesting a degree of effectiveness in Covid-19 patients, prompting
doctors to write prescriptions and hospitals in the U.S. to place
orders. Last Friday, after Trump talked up the drug, 1.5 million tablets
were been ordered, but just 12% of orders were filled. Orders have
jumped 2,196% since the pandemic was declared.
Over the past few days, state pharmacy boards in Texas, Ohio, Idaho, and
Nevada began restricting who can be prescribed the drugs, after reports
of some doctors prescribing the drugs for themselves and their families.
Consequently, shortages were reported by the American Society of
Health-System Pharmacists, although four manufacturers have since
pledged to produce millions of tablets.
Among them is Bayer Pharmaceuticals, which sells a brand-name version;
Mylan; Teva Pharmaceuticals; and the Sandoz unit of Novartis.
Spokespeople for Mylan, Novartis and Teva wrote us that their companies
produce hydroxylcholoroquine in U.S. facilities.
To fill the void, though, the Food and Drug Administration late last
week also took the unusual step of lifting an import ban that was placed
in 2015 on Ipca Laboratories, an Indian drug maker that was cited for
poor manufacturing practices at three facilities, so that the company
could export hydroxychloroquine and the required active pharmaceutical
ingredients to make the medicine.
For now, the company does not expect to be able to export. "As the
things stand today, we can not export the API hydroxychloroquine
sulphate, as well as it's formulations, unless exemptions are given on a
case to case basis on humanitarian grounds," Harish Kamath, the IPCA
corporate counsel wrote us.
He noted that the Indian government recently permitted prophylactic use
of hydroxychloroquine tablets for health care workers as well as people
who were in close contact with coronavirus patients — and because of
this there could be increased demand and an immediate shortage in the
country.
We asked the FDA if there will be any attempt to persuade the Indian
government to make an exception. An agency spokesman sent us this:
"There is a significant surge in demand of
chloroquine/hydroxychloroquine
work with manufacturers to increase production. We are working with
manufacturers to assess their supplies and are actively evaluating
market demand for patients dependent on it for treatment of malaria,
lupus and rheumatoid arthritis. But please know this is a fluctuating
and dynamic situation we are actively engaged on."
[UPDATE: This posted updated to reflect a comment from the FDA and Teva].
(11) Hospitals investigating software and smartphones to monitor
patients from their homes
Desperate to free up beds for only the sickest Covid-19 patients,
hospitals nationwide are weighing the use of new technologies to monitor
patients from their homes.
Physicians at several hospitals said their discussions with makers of
these devices have kicked into high gear in recent days after the FDA
issued guidance indicating it would not object to modifications in the
use or functionality of remote patient monitoring tools during the outbreak.
Such tools rely on software and smartphones to track patients' blood
pressure, breathing, and temperature, as well as the functioning of
their lungs, heart, and other vital organs. Most hospitals are already
dramatically expanding the use of video and phone visits with patients,
but remote monitoring of objective biological measures is considered the
next step in their response.
"Traditional health care delivery is inadequate in dealing with this
pandemic," Raj Khandwalla, a physician and director of digital
therapeutics for the Smidt Heart Institute at Cedars-Sinai Medical
Center in Los Angeles. "We have to use a health care strategy that
deploys resources throughout an entire community, and that's where
remote monitoring comes in."
U.S. caregivers are seeking to avoid the fate of Bergamo, Italy, where
centralized care in hospitals appears to have contributed to a sharp
rise in the infection rate and death toll, and left health care workers
overwhelmed. Doctors in that city issued an urgent plea to counterparts
across the globe last weekend to step up their efforts to care for more
patients outside hospitals.
But quickly switching to new and untested methods of delivering care is
a mammoth task, specialists said. It requires ramping up the supply of
these digital tools, making sure doctors and patients are adequately
trained to use them, and integrating them with other parts of a
hospital's technology infrastructure, including electronic record
keeping systems.
"We're not quite there yet because we're really busy setting things up
to take care of people coming into the hospital who need more intensive
medical resources and monitoring," said Paul Friedman, chair of
cardiology at Mayo Clinic.
Like many hospitals, Mayo has already canceled elective surgeries and is
using phone and video consults to handle outpatient visits. It's also
talking with makers of remote monitoring tools about ways to keep closer
tabs on patients with Covid-19 who don't require intensive care, as well
as patients with chronic conditions such as heart failure who require
careful management.
Mobile EKG maker AliveCor is in discussions with Mayo on specific use
cases, as is Eko, a San Francisco-based company that has developed a
digital stethoscope and EKG algorithms to flag certain heart
abnormalities. The technology of both companies was tested on Mayo data
and developed in partnership with its physicians.
"Every health system is racing to enable care remotely right now," said
Connor Landgraf, chief executive of Eko, whose technology is also being
used for Covid-19 diagnosis by the University of Pittsburgh. He said the
company is fielding increasing inquiries about its products, which
enable providers to listen to heart and lung sounds wirelessly without
direct contact with patients.
(12) From the Right: Corona is forcing us to think in reverse - Brother
Nathanael Kapner
How Corona Could Backfire
March 24 2020
It looks pretty grim but corona still could have an upside.
So far, the most 'tangible' impact of the corona scare is everyone's out
of toilet paper.
But we may not be caught off guard again.
Having a month's worth of staples on hand will make us less prone to
panic next time around.
'Prepperism' has now reached main stream America.
Dried foods, water purifiers, wood stoves, generators, gardens, AND
firearms, will be found now in countless homes.
'Self-reliance' is quite visible at gun stores now.
For with cops answering only critical calls, people see the need to rely
on themselves—not the government—for protection.
Just look at the 'education crisis' brought on by corona.
Our children have been raised by the government for decades.
Daycare, kindergarten through high school, then off to costly, and
mostly useless, college…all insidious 'indoctrination' infused into our
children by the government.
Beginning at age four, kids are taught by the American Federation of
Teachers and the Anti-Defamation League:
Homosexuality, transgenderism, wars for the Jews, and loyalty to the
anti-Christ state of Israel. Then off to college they go where left-wing
Jewish theorists teach them hatred of the white race.
Voila! The next generation comes out brainwashed, stupid, and hating
themselves.
But now—thanks to corona—parents and kids are spending time together.
Many parents will ditch the indoctrination of public schools and do home
and private schooling instead. No longer will we need massive physical
college institutions with pricey amenities to lure naive students into
crippling debt. College is now being delivered digitally, expanding its
reach and simultaneously reducing its cost.
So who needs Bernie Sanders? Student debt-forgiveness must eventually
kick in once corona kicks out, or even before it does. I mean, we're
bailing out huge corporations now, so let's bail out the enslaved
students as well. Just bring our troops home, let the Jews fight their
own wars, and the bill is paid in full.
Let's look at work. With internet, email, and video conferencing, it's a
wonder the workplace paradigm hasn't changed up to this point. Corona is
now forcing companies to employ a stay-at-home workforce. That means
people will spend less time stuck in traffic on their way to fill up a
skyscraper, and more time doing productive work at home.
Corona may be good for the economy too. The overworked American is
finally getting a good long break. When this thing is over they'll be
hungry for business, for money, for prosperity.
You know, very farmer knows you can't plant crops indefinitely on the
same plot of land. The good earth needs a rest before the next
productive phase. Our economy is in a rest stage now, pressure is
building, and when unleashed, the economy could roar right back.
Alas! Irony kicks in here. All the issues the government's been pushing
has screeched to a halt and into reverse.
Instead of open borders, the government is closing them. Instead of more
taxes, the government is deferring them. Instead of more offshoring, the
government is crafting local supply chains. And, and this is a big one,
instead of pushing wars for Israel, the government is finally focusing
on America First.
See what corona can do? Taking back America is a must do. Now we just
gotta follow through. – +bn off the cuff
That's right. We need, like the government has now been forced to do, to
think in reverse.
Everything the Jews have pushed:
Open borders, taxing the white working goy, offshoring to make their
tribal Wall Street rich, is now moving in reverse due to corona.
Corona can now force us to all finally to think in reverse. So if it's
"Good For The Jews," as has been pursued, just think in reverse: "It's
Bad For You."
Our troops and wars abroad have been "good for the jews," so let's back
up, and bring the troops back home and let the jews fight for
themselves. Corona means we have to cut back.
Begin by repealing the 3.6 billion a year we surrender to IsraHell to
please the Jewish Lobby.
Look. If a medical ventilator costs $10,000 apiece then America could
buy 360,000 ventilators for critical care for just about every hospital
in this country.
That's $3.6 billion which we waste on Israel every year.
Make America Streamlined Again, is my new motto. Corona could make the
streamlining a reality.
(13) From the Left: Pharma corporations race for a vaccine, wanting to
outdo one another
From: chris lancenet <chrislancenet@gmail.com>
COVID-19 – The Fight for a Cure: One Gigantic Western Pharma Rip-Off
By Peter Koenig Global Research, March 24, 2020
A few days ago, Dr. Tedros, the Director General of the World Health
Organization (WHO) repeated what he said already a few weeks ago, that
there are about 20 pharmaceutical laboratories throughout the world that
are developing a vaccine for the novel coronavirus, named COVID-19, also
called 2019-nCOV, or SARS-CoV-2. For the layman, it is just a stronger
mutation of the Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS) virus, that
broke out in 2002 / 2003, also in China. To be sure, a mutation made in
a laboratory. In a US high-security biological warfare laboratory. In
other words, both SARS and COVID-19 – among many other bio-war agents –
were made in the US.
{He does not privide any evidence for that. Futher, he implies that the
virus was deliberately planted in Wuhan by the CIA, once again without
evidence. He makes no mention of Wuhan Institute of Virology, or the
Director of its P4 lab, Professor Zhengli Shi. She participated in Gain
of Function research at the University of North Corolina. Details at
http://mailstar.net/coronavirus.html - Peter M.}
And now, the chaotic western-style race of private corporations for a
vaccine wanting to outdo one another, has begun.
Who is first to develop a vaccine? – It's a fierce competition to
establish a patent, a monopoly – for a possibly multi trillion-dollar
business. Its western neoliberal capitalism at its very worst – or best,
depending on the angle from where one looks. [...]
The vaccine that might eventually be applied to COVID-19, may most
likely no longer be valid for the next coronavirus outbreak – which,
also according to Mr. Redfield, CDC, will most probably occur. A later
virus may most certainly have mutated. It's quite similar to the common
flu virus. In fact, the annually reoccurring common flu virus contains a
proportion of 10% to 15% (some times more) of coronaviruses.
The effectiveness of the annual flu vaccines is on average less than
50%, not to mention all the potential harmful side effects, they carry
along. COVID-19 is very similar to influenza. Will a corona virus
vaccine be equally weak in protecting a potential patient from a future
infection?
Cooperation instead of competition, doesn't occur in the west. It's all
profit-driven. With a number of different vaccines from different pharma
giants coming on the market, who will tell the patient which one is the
best, most suitable for the patient's condition? It smells like an utter
chaotic scam.
The real question is – are vaccines – or a vaccine – even necessary?
Maybe – maybe not. The production of vaccines is pushed for profit
motives and for an important political agenda for a New World Order –
that has been planned to change human life as we know it, or thought we
knew it. See further explanations below.
Vaccines don't heal, they may prevent the virus from hitting as hard as
it might otherwise do, or not at all, depending on the age, physical and
health condition of a person. Worldwide statistics show that usually a
person up to the age of 40 or 50, who is infected by the COVID-19, has
none or only slight symptoms, nothing to worry about.
{WRONG. See item 14, Biggest Group of COVID-19 Patients in Korea Are
Young People. There are also many young patients in the West, but not
many children - Peter M.}
Should symptoms show up, staying home, resting and using traditional,
age-old medicine, the same that might be used for the common flu, might
be enough to get rid of the virus. This might resolve the disease within
one or two weeks. Then, the person will be naturally "vaccinated"
against this strand of coronavirus. Elderly people above 65 or 70 may be
more at risk and special attention may be in order – separated from
crowds, isolation during a two-week quarantine (the incubation period),
while the rest of society goes on with life as normal as possible,
thereby reducing the huge cost to society.
China has brought the COVID-19 pandemic under control without a vaccine,
but using common sense and traditional, rather inexpensive medication.
What are these regular medicines that are effective and have helped to
bring COVID-19 under control in China, without a vaccine?
The "Children's Health Defense" (the Children's Defense Fund – CDF), an
American NGO, founded 1973 by Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., depicts the
current power struggle in France between health official and the
country's leading experts in virology, as representative for the
worldwide fight between corporate pharma supported by (bought)
governments and international organizations, such as WHO – and renowned
scientists. If laid open, it is an eye-opener. See full CDF study.
French Professor Didier Raoult, who is one of the world's top 5
scientists on communicable diseases, argued that the approach of mass
quarantine is both inefficient and outdated and that large-scale testing
and treatment of suspected cases achieves far better results.
Early on, Dr. Raoult suggested the use of hydroxychloroquine
(Chloroquine or Plaquenil), a well-known, simple, and inexpensive drug,
also used to fight Malaria, and that has shown efficacy with previous
coronaviruses such as SARS. By mid-February 2020, clinical trials at
his institute and in China already confirmed that the drug could reduce
the viral load and bring spectacular improvement. The Chinese scientists
published their first trials on more than 100 patients and announced
that the Chinese National Health Commission would recommend Chloroquine
in their new guidelines to treat Covid-19.
In addition, China and Cuba are working together with the use of
Interferon Alpha 2B, a highly efficient anti-viral drug developed in
Cuba some 39 years, but little known to the world, because of the US
imposed embargo on anything from Cuba. Interferon has also proven to be
very effective in fighting COVID-19 and is now produced in a
joint-venture in China.
Chinese researchers in cooperation with Cuban scientists are also
developing a vaccine which may soon be ready for testing. In contrast to
the west, working exclusively on profit-motives, the Chinese-Cuban
vaccine would be made available at low cost to the entire world.
Other simple, but effective remedies include the use of heavy doses of
Vitamin C, as well as Vitamin D3, or more generally the use of
Micronutrients essential to fight infections, include vitamins A, B, C,
D, and E.
Another remedy that has been used for thousands of years by ancient
Chinese, Romans and Egyptians, are Colloidal silver products. They come
in forms to be administered as a liquid by mouth, or injected, or
applied to the skin. Colloidal silver products are boosting the immune
system, fighting bacteria and viruses, and have been used for treating
cancer, HIV/AIDS, shingles, herpes, eye ailments, prostatitis – and
COVID-19.
Yet another simple and inexpensive remedy, to be used in combination
with others, is menthol-based "Mentholatum". It's used for common flu
and cold symptoms. Rubbed on and around the nose, it acts as a
disinfectant and prevents germs to enter the respiratory track.
Northern Italy and New Orleans report that an unusual number of patients
had to be hospitalized in Intensive Care Units (ICU) and be put 24¥7 on
a 90% strength respirator, with some of them remaining unresponsive,
going into respiratory failure. The reported death rate is about 40%.
The condition is called acute respiratory distress syndrome, ARDS. That
means the lungs are filled with fluid. When this description of ARDS
episodes applies, Dr. Raoult and other medical colleagues recommend
COVID-19 patients to "sleep sitting up" until they are cured. This helps
drain the liquid out of the lungs. The method has been known to work
successfully since it was first documented during the 1918 Spanish Flu
epidemic.
The Coronavirus COVID-19 Pandemic: The Real Danger is "Agenda ID2020"
As you may expect, if you look up any of these alternative cures on
internet – internet controlled by Google and the Big Corporatocracy,
including the pharmaceuticals, will logically advise you against using
them. At best they will tell you that these products or methods have not
proven effective, and at worst, that they may be harmful. Don't believe
it. None of these products or methods are harmful. Remember, some of
them have been used as natural remedies for thousands of years. And
remember, China has successfully come to grips with COVID-19, using some
of these relatively simple and inexpensive medications.
Unfortunately, few doctors are aware of these practical, simple and
inexpensive remedies. They are safe and more often than not successful.
The media, under pressure from the pharma giants and the compliant
government agencies, have been requested to censoring such valuable
information. The negligence or failure, to make such easily accessible
remedies public knowledge is killing people.
Now, let's cut to the chase, to what's behind it all – behind the
extraordinary monstrous media propaganda hype that is bringing down the
entire (western) world's socioeconomic system, creating untold misery,
famine, and death. A misery with suffering potentially by orders of
magnitude worse than the Big Depression of 1928 / 1929 and the
subsequent years.
If anybody had any doubts up to now, where the virus originated, the
truth was dropped surreptitiously, a slip of the tongue or on purpose,
by Secretary of State, Mike Pompeo, when he addressed the Nation on 21
March on COVID-19, he said, "This is not about retribution, we are in a
live exercise here…", meaning military exercise, or a war game.
President Trump by Pompeo's side was whispering, "you should have let us
know". Whatever that means. It's hard to believe that Mr. Trump didn't
know. But these are the vagaries of American politics, even on a
death-serious subject like the new coronavirus breakout. See here with a
brief video. See this also.
This live (military) exercise has unimaginable worldwide implications
which may completely transform our lives. It's economic warfare. Almost
every country on this planet is on some kind of a lock-down, a
quarantine of sorts for an as of yet undetermined period, with
businesses closed, shops and restaurants shot, construction sites
halted, people working from home if they can, being in the streets is
forbidden, in many countries under police and military surveillance,
with cases of people being beaten up and hand-cuffed, if they have no
good explanation.
{But if the virus was planted by the CIA, what was the goal? If it was
to bring down China, it failed. Wuhan trains are running again, wehereas
the USA is facing devastation. The virus is doing much more damage in
the West, because of its weak government. This was predictable, because
during the 1930s, the West languished in Depression, but Soviet Russia
and Nazi Germany had full employment. - Peter M.}
The President Macron-inspired French police is especially known for its
uncontrolled brutality fighting the Yellow Vests. They have already
demonstrated their same despise for their fellow citizens, when they are
in the streets, even food shopping, without a special permit.
Borders are shot, airlines are grounded, tourism comes to a screeching
halt, basically from one day to the other, stranded throughout the
world. With a few exceptions, Germany and France are rare ones, they
organize return flights for their citizens abroad. Otherwise, with
uncertain flight departures, over-booked and over-crowded flights, the
stranded tourists have hardly a chance to return home soon.
The socioeconomic cost is astronomical. In the multi-quadrillion, or
quintillion; numbers with so many zeros they make you dizzy. This
calamity can only partly be valued with numbers, and not now, as the
world's lock-down continues – with a social cost that cannot be valued.
The dive of the stock market by about 30% – a typical bonanza for
forward speculators and Big Finance, Big Banking, with
multi-trillion-dollar losses for the small investors.
Millions, if not hundreds of millions of small and medium size
businesses going broke, unemployment going rampant, in the hundreds of
millions, throughout the world, and the poorest of the poor, especially
in developing countries, who are either unemployed or survive on small
hourly or day-to-day jobs – they have no income, cannot buy the basics
for survival – some of them may die from famine, others may commit
suicide, others convert to crime. This is Greece by a factor of
thousand, or worse.
Then, there is a moral and societal breakdown from a forced quarantine,
for which there is no clear end in sight. This creates fear and
anxieties, frustration and anger. For many it's like solitary
confinement – all of which is bad for health, and lowers the immune
defense system. Just what those who pull the strings want.
So, whom does this live (military) exercise serve? – First one would
assume its destined to break China's back, as China is the up-and-coming
economic power. It is true, China's economy has suffered enormously,
with about 60% to 70% of all production stopped for the first two months
this year, the time of the COVID-19 outbreak and peak, meaning a
significant plunge of China's GDP, maybe as much as 40% for January and
February 2020.
However, China has the corona virus now firmly under control. And China
being China, her economy is recovering fast and may soon be back to what
it was in December 2019. In fact, despite the significant impact of
COVID-19, China's economy may soon overtake that of the self-styled
empire, the United States of America. China's currency the yuan, is
solidly backed by a strong economy and by gold, and is slated to become
the world's chief reserve currency, replacing the US-dollar, which had
that role for the last 100 years. When that happens, the US hegemony is
doomed.
It's more. This attack on China is actually backfiring big time. China
is the supply chain for almost everything for the west. To increase
corporate profits, the US and other western countries have outsourced
almost everything to low-cost labor China. This concerns not only high
technology electronics, but also medication and medical equipment. About
80% and ingredients to produce medication come from China. For
antibiotics the proportion is about 90%. With much of Chinese production
halted for almost 2 months, the delivery lag is enormous.
A plan has been on the drawing board for the last few years, dictated by
the obscure clan, or "Deep Dark State", and designed by its minions, who
expect to be generously rewarded in one way or another. Or, you may put
it this way, the absence of punishment and torture is also a form of reward.
Universal Vaccination
First, there is an enormous drive towards universal vaccination, because
vaccination will be the cornerstone of all that follows, namely a
universally imposed electronic identification of every person on the
planet. And what is best suited to force down a vaccination program? – A
pandemic, of course, with people being made more scared every day. The
fear factor is key. It is being increased by a time-undetermined
quarantine and by a constant drip-by-drip indoctrination of bad news on
the COVID-19 front. Every day the pace of increasing numbers of infected
people and those who died, accelerates, increasing fear and anxiety.
The time will come, when people will literally scream for help. They
want a police and military state to protect them – from the virus, I
guess – and they want to be vaccinated. They don't care nor ask what is
the cocktail that is being injected in their body and what its long-term
implications may be. For example, the vaccination cocktail could serve
to reduce women and men's fertility, or cause long-term neurological
defects that can even be passed on to next generations. People with fear
just want to sleep at ease, being vaccinated. They don't care – nor do
they want to know – that along with the vaccine could be a nano-chip
injected that will contain all their personal data, from health records
to bank accounts – and can be electronically remote-controlled.
It goes without saying, our monetary system is planned to be fully
electronic, no more cash – cash is poison – or as WHO's Director General
recently warned, not verbatim, but with that meaning, cash is dangerous
for infections, paper money and coins may carry deadly viruses – thereby
paving the way for full digitization of our monetary system. This has,
indeed, already been tested over the past few years, mainly in
Scandinavian countries, where entire department stores refuse to accept
cash. In response to the WHO DG's recommendation, some shops and
restaurants in Germany refuse to accept cash.
The universal vaccination and electronic ID go together and will first
be tested in a few developing countries. Bangladesh is one of them. The
vaccination program is the platform for the mega-changes the New World
Order (NOW), or the One World Order (OWO) wants to bring about. This, in
addition to the enormous money-making bonanza.
An almost unknown agency called Agenda ID2020 is behind all this,
monitoring, directing and adjusting the implementation of the various
programs – that are supposed to eventually lead to Full Spectrum
Dominance. For more details, see also the recent article on the dangers
of Agenda ID2020.
Behind this elaborate and complex network of things, appears time and
again, one prominent name: Bill Gates, the Bill and Melinda Gate's
Foundation. Bill Gates has been funding vaccination programs in Africa
for decades. And Bill Gates and the Rockefellers make no secret that one
of their ultimate goal for planet earth is a drastic population reduction.
Abstract of Agenda ID2020
Agenda ID2020 – is an alliance of public-private partners, including UN
agencies and civil society. It's an electronic ID program that uses
generalized vaccination as a platform for digital identity. The program
harnesses existing birth registration and vaccination operations to
provide newborns with a portable and persistent biometrically-linked
digital identity.
GAVI, the Global Alliance for Vaccines and Immunization, identifies
itself on its website as a global health partnership of public and
private sector organizations dedicated to "immunization for all". GAVI
is supported by WHO, and needless to say, its main partners and sponsors
are the pharma-industry.
The ID2020 Alliance at their 2019 Summit, entitled "Rising to the Good
ID Challenge", in September 2019 in New York, decided to roll out their
program in 2020, a decision confirmed by the WEF in January 2020 in
Davos. Their digital identity program will be tested with the government
of Bangladesh. GAVI, the Vaccine Alliance, and "partners from academia
and humanitarian relief" (as they call it), are part of the pioneer party.
Is it just a coincidence that ID2020 is being rolled out at the onset of
what WHO calls a Pandemic? – Or is a pandemic needed to ‘roll out' the
multiple devastating programs of ID2020?
How the Vaccination Research and Production is supposed to work.
How will this elaborate and complex business of creating vaccines and
implementing vaccine campaign work? As most official activities that
basically are government responsibilities are privatized and outsourced,
they become complex, chaotic at times and inefficient. In the case of
the west, the US pretends to take the lead, but will also assign
responsibilities to European pharma-labs.
The National Institute of Health (NIH) has overall responsibility for
national health research and program implementation. NIH's Director is
Anthony Fauci. The Institute was created in 1955. Under NIH, the
National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), one of 27
institutes, reporting to NIH, is responsible for vaccination programs.
NIAD's mission is to conduct basic and applied research to better
understand, treat and prevent infectious, immunologic and allergic
diseases. NIAD has outsourced the vaccination program to the Coalition
for Epidemic Preparedness Innovations (CEPI).
CEPI was formed by the WEF (World Economic Forum) in Davos in January
2017. It was founded by the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation (BMGF) and
the London-based Welcome Trust, created in 1936, but including now as
members several European countries and the European Union (EU). The BMGF
made a first infusion to CEPI of US$ 460 million. CEPI also receives
funding from Norway and India and is also heavily supported by the
pharma-industry.
According to CEPI's website, CEPI has appealed for US$ 2 billion to
support the development of a vaccine for COVID-19 and to expand the
number of vaccine candidates to increase the chances of success and to
fund the clinical trials for these candidate vaccines. CEPI's ambition
is to have at least three vaccine candidates, which could be submitted
to regulatory authorities for licensing for general use/use in outbreaks.
"Governments around the world will need to invest billions of euros more
in coronavirus vaccine development, to take forward some promising
candidates that are emerging. – It's a very risky business – everything
is being done in parallel, you're not building on the expertise of
others – but good progress is being made," said Melanie Saville,
director of vaccine research and development at CEPI.
CEPI has already some preselected international pharma corporations to
research and work on a COVID-19 vaccine. They include the biotech
"Moderna" in Seattle, not far from the Microsoft Headquarters – also a
Bill Gates creation; the biotech lab Inovio, the University of
Queensland, Australia, and the Germans, BioNTech and CureVac.
From the outset it looks that Moderna, CureVac and BioNTech are best
suited to produce fast a vaccine, because according to a Health and
Science report, published on March 17, 2020, "all three of these firms
specialize in messenger RNA (mRNA) therapeutics. These mRNA molecules
are used to instruct the body to produce its own immune response to
fight a range of different diseases. This type of vaccine can
potentially be developed and produced more quickly than traditional
vaccines."
Enters GAVI – the Global Alliance for Vaccines and Immunization has also
been created by the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation. It is a global
health partnership of public and private sector organizations, dedicated
to "immunization for all". GAVI is supported by WHO, and needless to
say, its main partners and sponsors are the pharma-industry. GAVI has
already announced it needs billions of dollars to support its COVID-19
vaccination program. In June 2020, the UK Government will sponsor a
donor conference in support of GAVI's COVID-19 vaccination program,
expecting to raise US$ 7.3 billion.
From this maze of overlapping organizations, activities and unclear
responsibilities, the money-flow is likely going to be a crisscross that
nobody can follow. Accountability on a large scale will be lost.
As to the output – hopefully a vaccine – or several vaccines. For the
layman and potential patient, it will be a matter of luck (or bad luck)
what cocktail of biological substances will be injected into his or her
body. In any case, the long-term outcome, is unpredictable. Remember,
Bill Gates has been pursuing during the last fifteen or twenty years his
own very special agenda. It is unlikely he will abandon it now. Rather
COVID-19 and the ensuing vaccination program will allow him to enhance it.
Concluding – it is amply clear that this is a huge money-making and
public-rip-off proposition by the pharma industry. What makes this
multi-billion-dollar scam even worse, is that it has an official
rubber-stamp, by being supported by western governments and
international organizations, foremost WHO, UNICEF and the World Bank.
This may be the last opportunity for the elite, the 0.1%, to shuffle
social capital and worker funded assets from the bottom to the top,
before we enter an era of total control through electromagnetic fields
(EMF), managed by the minions of the 0.1% and with 5G / 6G technology,
where we, the remaining humans may have become mere tele-guided robots.
It is by now a pipe dream to believe that the world may continue as it
did until the end of the last decade. It would be too much of a
coincidence that Agenda ID2020 started activating its evil programs
exactly at the beginning of the decade 2020. Unfortunately, it is also a
far-away dream that China and Cuba could lead the way for finding a cure
for the most likely recurring coronavirus in one mutation or another –
including but not exclusively, using traditional methods and remedies
that have proven successful in the current battle to control COVID-19.
There are draconian measures on the way, and we may just pray that they
fail, or that we, the people, awake in time and in sufficient numbers –
a critical mass – and find back to our innermost voice and soul –
solidarity for each other that gives us strength to fight this
Luciferian monster.
(14) Biggest Group of COVID-19 Patients in Korea Are Young People
By Heo Sang-woo, Kim Chul-joong
March 23, 2020 12:29
People in their teens and 20s account for the biggest group of
coronavirus infections in Korea with 34 percent, a unique pattern in the
world, according to the Korea Centers for Disease Control and Prevention
on Sunday.
The pattern became apparent not only among confirmed cases in the
Shincheonji sect in Daegu, a major hotbed of infections, but in other
parts of the country.
The KCDC analyzed 7,755 confirmed cases and 66 fatalities and published
its findings in the Osong Public Health and Research Perspectives
journal. The findings are expected to serve as an important source of
data for medical experts around the world.
According to the study, infections were particularly high among people
in their 20s not only among Shincheonji followers in Daegu and
surrounding North Gyeongsang Province but across the country.
Kim Woo-joo at Korea University Guro Hospital said, "Young people are
less enthusiastic about maintaining social distance and socially more
active, and that way they often end up causing secondary infections
among parents or grandparents."
The infection curve shows that infections started among younger Koreans
and spread to the elderly after a few days.
For instance people in their 40s and 50s became infected first, followed
by a spike in cases among people in their 70s and 80s a few days later.
This suggests that active members of society pass the virus to the
elderly at home or in nursing homes, highlighting the need for social
distancing and personal hygiene in homes as well as elsewhere.
Most of the fatalities were hospitalized four to five days after
developing symptoms and died around five days later. A closer look at
the figures shows hospitalization was delayed due to the time it took to
distinguish between mild and severe cases, while patients died after the
disease had progressed considerably.
That shows that swift diagnosis and hospitalization of severe cases can
be effective in lowering the fatality rate. Only a few fatalities did
not suffer from other illnesses such as hypertension or diabetes, but it
still warns against complacency by those who are healthy.
Overall, more women than men became infected, but fatalities were higher
among men. The infection statistics were partly skewed by cases among
Shincheonji members, but it could also be due to the fact that more men
smoke.
Lee Wang-jun of Myongji Hospital said, "The total number of infections
may appear to be declining as cases dwindle in Daegu and North
Gyeongsang Province, but new infections are rising in Seoul and
surrounding Gyeonggi Province. We need to remain vigilant and maintain
strict monitoring and quarantine measures."
