… most people by now have had COVID or know many people who have. It’s not smallpox, it’s not Ebola; in many people it’s not as bad as the flu. In 40 percent of cases, a study recently published in JAMA Network Open found, it’s entirely asymptomatic.
.
And yet, still, 1,400 US residents die from it each day. And those are just the ones who got counted.
ReplyDeleteAnd yet, hospitals everywhere over pushed to their limits with sufferers.
And yet, everyone who gets it gets vital organ damage.
Maybe it's time we enforced serious mandates that hurt the unvaccinated and unmasked more than they hurt others.
Maybe it's time we stopped paying for the Covid-19 hospital care of the unvaccinated, and start taking houses, cars, and boats for ER and ICU payment.
DeleteMaybe you should calm down and do some reading. Pandemia by Alex Berenson is a good cure for Covid hysteria.
ReplyDeleteYou give no response to this other than to say that some guy wrote a book and that it's all about hysteria. What did you get out of it? You also give no response to these facts:

Also, this fresh report: Researchers fear growing COVID vaccine hesitancy in developing nations: Scientists worry that pools of unvaccinated people could be a source of new variants, such as Omicron.. Makes sense, right? This has to do with wherever there are "pools" of unvaccinated.
It's not about being hysterical, but about facing that there is a real pandemic on, and then taking responsible action.
Let me add, not to get you hysterical, but to further understanding and counter misinformation . . . Covid does not only directly attack the one who caught it, but you would never want to be around a pregnant woman without being vaccinated and having a mask on, because the immune response itself in the mother-to-be's body harms the unborn.
'And yet, everyone who gets it gets vital organ damage.'
ReplyDeleteHi Rus, can you supply a reliable link or two for this info? Thanks.
Hi Lee,
DeleteYou sent me looking for a study that I had handy a year and a half ago. The researchers, I believe at a lab with the Goodyear name, observed under a microscope immediate and continuing injury to the cardiovascular system at that cellular level. They reported this while their research was ongoing, because at that time, Covid-19 was only considered to be a respiratory illness, not a cardiovascular one in addition, as we consider it today. Since then, I have only read research that supports their findings.
So, let's fast forward to this month: X-ray imaging shows COVID-19 damage to heart in new detail. These imagings support what I had read last year, that injury to the heart is taking place. Today, we don't just see it under a microscope in a lab, but in x-rays of actual patients.
So that's the heart. Lung damage is taking place, liver and kidney damage, enough that it shows up in high percentages of patients who have been hospitalized. This is all easily searchable: "organ damage from covid-19". Just replace "organ" with the specific organ you like, and you'll get web results for the past year. All this you know. I add it here to complete the thought, of including other vital organs.
Not finding the lab report from last year is still bugging me, and I hope to find it. I'm wondering if this month's findings about cardio-vascular damage is precisely what they were predicting would happen.
Thanks, Rus. I had a brief look at the report on heart damage. The thing is, the study concerns patients who have died from Covid-19, so we can't assume that this is true of all who contract the disease. It may be true, but not necessarily.
ReplyDeleteYes, I am well aware of that. But it is just the most recent findings to support last year's research where the mechanism for the damage was immediate and sure. I need to find that study.
DeleteFound it: Coronavirus may dice heart muscle fibers into tiny snippets, remove cells' DNA. Here is the update research: SARS-CoV-2 infection of human iPSC-derived cardiac cells predicts novel cytopathic features in hearts of COVID-19 patients. Essentially, in the lab, SARS-CoV-2 attacks and damages cardiomyocytes in the petri dish. Cardiomyocytes are what make the heart contract. What researchers are looking at is medication to stop this process. So, when we look at Xrays of actual patients, we see just such damage taking place.
DeleteUnfortunately, this is in addition to the capillary damage report that has come out this month. Looks like the heart is getting hammered from different directions.
