Don't Get Sick!
Preprint research from the University of France in Lyon answered the question. How soon can you have a breakthrough infection after complete vaccination? They studied 1,630 fully vaccinated individuals from February to July 2021. 94.1% of the samples available for gene sequencing have the Delta variant. Several vaccine strategies are available in France. It can…
This article continues Autopsy findings in 29 breakthrough cases, shows what’s wrong with the COVID shots Part 1, and offers several explanations of why viral dissemination happened. Part 1 is about a study of 29 vaccinated patients who had breakthrough infections that died and had an autopsy. The findings surprised the pathologist as they showed…
Sometimes the dead speak to you. – Kenneth Eade A series of autopsy cases among 29 fatal COVID-19 breakthrough infections were published as a preprint in medRxiv. Pathologists and other faculty members from the University of Augsburg in Germany did the research. Sixteen partially and 13 fully vaccinated deceased individuals were included. They received Pfizer,…
The article presents the number of omicron variants per country today. The data is from the Global Initiative on Sharing Avian Influenza Data or GISAID. The omicron variant is now in 30 countries. The other names for omicron are #GR/484A and B.1.1.529 This report serves as a reference only and not to cause panic or anxiety. Underdeveloped countries may have…
This article presents the result of a study that evaluated the effectiveness of the Pfizer and Moderna booster shots among military veterans. The study is from the US Department of Veterans Affairs and Stanford University. It is a relevant study because it includes older people with comorbidities. The research included individuals who had received the…
The effects of heat-not-burn tobacco products, cigarette smoking, and alcohol use lowered the antibody response to the Pfizer BNT162b2 vaccine. That’s the summary of the study from Tokyo, Japan. The study was published recently at medRxiv. The goal of the Pfizer COVID vaccine is to increase the antibodies against the spike protein of the SARS-CoV-2…
RNA viruses like the SARS-CoV-2 constantly mutate. The mutations happen inside a person’s body during a COVID-19 infection. The alterations in the gene change the protein sequences and conformation of the virus. The mutations alter the viral properties. For example, a study showed that a change in a single nucleotide, the building block of an…
The European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control studied 10 European Union member countries and evaluated the outcome of COVID-19 in children 0-17 years old. Their findings published in Eurosurveillance included 820,404 symptomatic pediatric cases and showed the following results: 1.2% were hospitalized 0.08% required intensive care 0.01% died. Those findings are similar to previous…
A FaceBook friend asked me what is the chance of reinfection if you recovered from COVID-19. A quick search revealed many studies that show a low risk of infection. I answered her and made this article. The studies are listed in no particular order. Emphasis added. 1. Re-infection Rates among Patients who Previously Tested Positive…
It’s the cold season now in the northern hemisphere, and people tend to stay indoors. It is also the holiday season which means get-togethers will be frequent. A question that may run in people’s minds is how effective is my Pfizer or the AstraZeneca COVID vaccines? That’s the question that the research from medRxiv answered….
GISAID or Global Initiative on Sharing Avian Influenza Data is a website where gene sequences of coronaviruses and influenza viruses are shared. Genetic sequences from all over the world are submitted to GISAID. Based on the gene sequences, scientists can identify and categorize different strains of coronaviruses and influenza viruses. The table below shows the number of omicron variants from…
COVID-19 Infections Among Vaccinated More Common, Severe in Immunocompromised: Study From Epoch Times Breakthrough COVID-19 cases are more common and severe in people with weakened immune systems, according to a new study. Breakthrough infections are those that occur in vaccinated people. Immunocompromised vaccinated people were three times more likely to contract COVID-19, the disease caused by…
A Tweet is circulating that says Take the booster. If you get clots or myocarditis, or heart failure it definitely came from omicron variant, not the booster. Take the booster. It’ll be fine. What? No, it’s just the omicron symptoms are identical to the vaccine, but the vaccine will protect you. The Tweet also included…
Dr. Angelique Coetzee of South Africa is credited with discovering the omicron variant among her patients. ABC Radio National interviewed Dr. Coetzee about the omicron cases that she has seen. She said most have mild symptoms like fever, fatigue, headaches, body aches, and nausea. No one showed symptoms commonly seen with the Delta variant: “No…
Before 2019, some coronaviruses circulated in the population. They are the human coronaviruses 229E, NL63, OC43, and HKU1. The SARS-Cov-2 entered the scene in December 2019. Every time a virus infects anyone, it mutates and changes to find a way to survive. That’s because everybody’s immune system is different. The specificity and properties of an…
Acute Coronary Syndrome is a range of conditions where blood flow to the heart is restricted. Angina and myocardial infarctions are good examples. If someone has a heart attack or has severe obstructions in their coronary arteries, they need a cardiologist like Dr. Steven Gundry. Dr. Gundry is a world-renowned cardiothoracic surgeon. Recently, the American…
A preprint study from the University of Texas Health Sciences Center showed that the SARS-CoV-2 antibodies from individuals who recovered from COVID-19 are as effective as the vaccinated. Neutralizing antibodies against COVID-19 should effectively block the spike protein of the SARS-CoV-2 from attaching to human cells. They should be specific to the receptor-binding domain (RBD)…
Government agencies that make policies for the COVID-19 pandemic should learn from the Central African Republic. The Central African Republic is in the middle of Africa. Its name says it all. The image below shows the Central African Republic in green. A preprint study showed impressively high antibodies (74.1%) against the SARS-CoV-2 among unvaccinated people…
Vaccines against any disease should lower mortality not only for the vaccinated but also for the general population. That’s because immunization should reduce the transmission of that infectious disease. Moreover, vaccines should be safe and not cause deaths. But what if it is the opposite? A recent study that wanted to know if there is…
Many became aware of graphene when a report from the University of Almeira in Spain in July 2021 showed that a Pfizer Comirnaty vaccine contained 99% graphene. So far, there are no reports to validate that finding. That news created a negative image of graphene. However, graphene is a wonder material that has plenty of…
