Subject: C19
Breaking Covid news!  Italy has allegedly discovered covid is not a virus, but a bacterium. It clots the blood and reduces the oxygen saturation from dispersing throughout the body. They went against the World Health Organization's that no bodies be autopsied. When Italian Ministry of Health ordered many autopsies, they found the blood was clotted in all of the patients veins. They immediately started using aspirin 100mg and a coagulant medication. And have had immense success. 14,000 people were released from the hospital as healthy and covid free. Italy is demanding Bill Gates and the World health Organization be held accountable for  crimes against humanity for misleading, misdirecting, and withholding life saving information from the world, which cost the lives of thousands. Ventilators and ICU units were not necessary. A mandated vaccine is not necessary. Covid19 is a bacterium, easily

treated with aspirin and coagulant. Spread the word! Make this global. Hopefully our president will learn about this and do something about it! Before we lose all of our constitutional freedoms.

Discovery: Autopsies Prove that COVID-19 is a Disseminated Intravascular Coagulation (Pulmonary Thrombosis)

Posted by Chinonyerem Emmanuella

 

It is now clear that the whole world has been attacking the so-called Coronavirus Pandemic wrongly due to a serious pathophysiological diagnosis error.

 

According to valuable information from Italian pathologists, ventilators and intensive care units were never needed.

 

Autopsies performed by the Italian pathologists has shown that it is not pneumonia but it is Disseminated Intravascular Coagulation (Thrombosis) which ought to be fought with antibiotics, antivirals, anti-inflammatories and anticoagulants.

 

If this is true for all cases, that means the whole world is about to resolve this novel pandemic earlier than expected.

 

However, protocols are currently being changed in Italy who have been adversely affected by this pandemic.

 

The impressive case of a Mexican family in the United States who claimed they were cured with a home remedy was documented: three 500 mg aspirins dissolved in lemon juice boiled with honey, taken hot.

 

The next day they woke up as if nothing had happened to them! Well, the scientific information that follows proves they are right!

“THE END OF COVID-19 IS NEAR”- GAIN AFRICA DIRECTOR DECLARES, BACKED W.H.O CHIEFS

 

This information was released by a medical researcher from Italy:

 

“Thanks to 50 autopsies performed on patients who died of COVID-19, Italian pathologists have discovered that IT IS NOT PNEUMONIA, strictly speaking, because the virus does not only kill pneumocytes of this type, but uses an inflammatory storm to create an endothelial vascular thrombosis.”

 

In disseminated intravascular coagulation, the lung is the most affected because it is the most inflamed, but there is also a heart attack, stroke and many other thromboembolic diseases.

 

In fact, the protocols left antiviral therapies useless and focused on anti-inflammatory and anti-clotting therapies. These therapies should be done immediately, even at home, in which the treatment of patients responds very well.

 

If the Chinese had denounced it, they would have invested in home therapy, not intensive care! So, the way to fight it is with antibiotics, anti-inflammatories and anticoagulants.

 

An Italian pathologist reports that the hospital in Bergamo did a total of 50 autopsies and one in Milan, 20, that is, the Italian series is the highest in the world, the Chinese did only 3, which seems to fully confirm the information.

 

In a nutshell, the disease is determined by a disseminated intravascular coagulation triggered by the virus; therefore, it is not pneumonia but pulmonary thrombosis, a major diagnostic error.

 

Some world leaders doubled the number of resuscitation places in the ICU, with unnecessary exorbitant costs.

 

According to the Italian pathologist, treatment in ICUs is useless if thromboembolism is not resolved first. “If we ventilate a lung where blood does not circulate, it is useless, in fact, nine (9) patients out of ten (10) will die because the problem is cardiovascular, not respiratory.”

 

“It is venous microthrombosis, not pneumonia, that determines mortality.”

 

According to the literature, inflammation induces thrombosis through a complex but well-known pathophysiological mechanism.

 

Unfortunately, what the scientific literature said, especially Chinese, until mid-March was that anti-inflammatory drugs should not be used.

 

Now, the therapy being used in Italy is with anti-inflammatories and antibiotics, as in influenza, and the number of hospitalized patients has been reduced.

 

He also discovered that many deaths, even in their 40s, had a history of fever for 10 to 15 days, which were not treated properly.

 

The inflammation does a great deal of tissue damage and creates ground for thrombus formation. However, the main problem is not the virus, but the immune hyperreaction that destroys the cell where the virus is installed.

 

In fact, patients with rheumatoid arthritis have never needed to be admitted to the ICU because they are on corticosteroid therapy, which is a great anti-inflammatory.

 

With this important discovery, it is possible to return to normal life and open closed deals due to the quarantine, though not immediately, but with time.

 

Kindly share so that the health authorities of each country can make their respective analysis of this information, prevent further deaths and redirect investments appropriately; the vaccine may come later.

 

I Completely agree it’s inflammation and DIC 

Which is why I treat with 

Tylenol- anti inflammatory 

Hydroxychloraquine- anti inflammatory 

Zithromax- antibiotic 

Medrol dosepak- steroid

 

They tried to discourage use of ibuprofen or aspirin initially - better anti inflammatory than Tylenol ...

It's the female and not male reindeer that pull Santa's sleigh. True

It's the female and not male reindeer that pull Santa's sleigh.True

Why Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer Rudolph Is a Lie, According to Science

Has nothing to do with the red nose.

Rae Paoletta

 

You know Dasher and Dancer and Prancer and Vixen, Comet and Cupid and Donner and Blitzen. But did you know that all of Santa’s reindeer are actuallyladies? A wildlife biologist has confirmed the stunning news to Inverse.

For so long, so many of us have incorrectly assumed that the famous reindeer are males, which is in part due to Hollywood propaganda from Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer, in which the titular character is a male. And while St. Nick’s reindeer are always depicted with full antlers, science suggests that this is almost a definite giveaway that none of them are males.

This revelation was inspired by a now-viral tweet on Tuesday, which accurately captures the gravity of the situation:

I know you’re thinking that you can’t believe everything you read on the internet. But according to wildlife biologist Imogene Cancellare, though both male and female reindeers grow antlers, at this time of year,Noel Santa’s Squad would almost definitely be all-female.Noel

“Males shed their antlers in late autumn, and antlered females shed in early spring,” she tells Inverse. “This has to do with the female’s need to defend resources during pregnancy. Not all female caribou (reindeer) have antlers, but for Santa’s crew to have antlers in December, they would be females.”

There’s more to it than just the antlers. Around the time of winter we assume Santa makes his journey, male reindeer carry very little body fat — around 5 percent, in fact. Females, on the other hand, carry around 50 percent body fat in the winter, allowing them to keep warm during the cold months. Therefore, female reindeer are heartier and better prepared for a cheery romp around the world.

So while the mainstream media would have you believe Rudolph and his pals are just a bunch of good ol’ boys, don’t be fooled. The reality is that a powerful network of female reindeer support each other through the winter months to spread cheer each holiday season. We salute them.

How Costco Manages Its Inventory and Supply Chain

.

Here's a hack on pricing:

Sometimes, you’ll see an asterisk* on a price tag for an item. It will be located in the top right corner – take a peek next time you’re at the store.

.

This little sign means that Costco won’t be getting that item back in. Or at the very least, that location won’t. If it’s a snack you’ve fallen in love with or an item you’ve been thinking about getting, you should pick it up pronto, because they won’t be getting another shipment!

.

If you learn to decode the Costco price tag, you can save a ton of money! If the price ends in .97 cents, it means the item is on clearance. If the price ends in .88 or .00, the price has been lowered by that manager. That means that it could be open box, or missing pieces – look closely before you buy.

.

If it ends with .49 or .79 cents, it’s a manufacturer deal, and should be grabbed – it won’t be around for long.

.

Also:

You don't need a membership to buy prescription drugs. Just tell them at the door and they will let you in without a Costco card. You will only be able to buy them and no other store products.

Grain Brain: The Surprising Truth about Wheat, Carbs, and Sugar--Your Brain's Silent Killers

Description

From #1 New York Times bestselling author Dr. Perlmutter, the devastating truth about the effects of wheat, sugar, and carbs on the brain, and a 4-week plan to achieve optimum health.

In Grain Brain, renowned neurologist David Perlmutter, MD, blows the lid off a finding that's been buried in medical literature for far too long: carbs are destroying your brain. Even so-called healthy carbs like whole grains can cause dementia, ADHD, anxiety, chronic headaches, depression, decreased libido, and much more.

Groundbreaking and timely, Grain Brain shows that the fate of your brain is not in your genes, it's in the food you eat. Dr. Perlmutter explains what happens when your brain encounters common ingredients in fruit bowls and bread, how statins may be erasing your memory, why a diet high in "good fats" is ideal, and how to spur the growth of new brain cells at any age. And his revolutionary 4-week plan will show you how to keep your brain healthy and sharp while dramatically reducing your risk for debilitating neurological disease -- without drugs.

Featuring a blend of cutting-edge research, real-life stories of transformation, and accessible, practical advice, Grain Brain teaches you how to take control of your "smart genes," regain wellness, and enjoy lifelong health and vitality.

What Video Games Taught Me About Finance

What Video Games Taught Me About Finance

 

Action-adventure and RPG games are packed with

hidden lessons about real worldwealth

by Becky Ferreira

It started, as many adventures have, in the town of Blackwater on the shores of Flat Iron Lake. I walked into the Gunsmith’s shop to check out his wares and saw the most provocative and expensive weapon I had ever come across—an “explosive rifle,” on sale for $10,000. Despite the fact that there were many people depending on me, the reformed Wild West outlaw John Marston, to carry out errands for them, I became obsessed with raising the cash to buy the gun.

You may have caught on that I’m not referring to real places or people, but rather locations and characters in the 2010 Rockstar game Red Dead Redemption. Like many fans of the game, I was completely sucked into Marston’s world, which is why I was surprised by how easily the explosive rifle derailed me from the main storyline. Ever since that frivolous quest, I’ve frequently found myself chasing virtual big ticket items in games like Skyrim or Horizon Zero Dawn, while holding off on other more pressing missions.

The result has been some weird lessons about money garnered from video games that are intended to be dazzling narratives, not financial primers. Because most immersive games mimic the real world to some extent, they weave in at least some rudimentary economic principles—a bank account, means of income, and products that can give you an edge when achieving your goals.

These systems are an important functional feature of the playing experience, but they also spotlighted some of my own financial strengths and weaknesses, and reinforced basic principles about real world finance. Here’s some examples of ways in which the bank accounts and wish lists of my game characters got me thinking about my money habits in real life.

Credit Impacts Pricing

Like most action-adventure games, it’s fairly easy to rustle up some cash in Red Dead Redemption, so my Marston took off to bag outlaws for the bounties, gamble, collect valuable herbs, and hunt game to sell in general stores.

When I eventually circled back to the Blackwater Gunsmith to collect my rifle, my Marston had also done a bunch of good deeds, apparently enough to accumulate the positive “honor” to be ranked a Peacemaker in the game (this status reflects how noble Marston has been in past social interactions; if you play as a scoundrel, you get different rewards). This cut store prices by 50%, and suddenly the explosive rifle was only valued at $5,000. Marston’s good behavioral track record had become a kind of permanent discount card.

In the real world, we have a similar system—credit scores—though it is correlated with the ability to consistently pay debts. That metric is not necessarily related to honorable actions in this day and age, yet does evoke however, an old-world honor when debts were a sign of weak will and questionable morals, and we hadn’t yet created a system that saddles people with an average of almost $40,000 of debt by their early twenties. But the point is the same: Consistency, whether it’s good deeds or paying bills, enables prices to fluctuate in your own favor.

When I played this game back in 2010, I was already aware that it’s a good idea to work on your credit score, but I hadn’t put much effort into it. Marston, wise rogue that he is, was part of the reason I got more invested in building better credit by prioritizing paying off debts and working to have low utilization ratios on my cards. I hope Red Dead Redemption 2, which is due out this October, will have other weird finance lessons in store for me.

Mo Money, Mo Problems

Notorious B.I.G.’s hit about the trappings that come with wealth is a timeless classic, and his point is borne out by some evidence (for instance, an estimated two thirds of lottery winners wind up going broke within a few years, according to the NY Daily News, and they are more likely to declare bankruptcy than the average American).

I recently experienced a similar effect in the addictive and beautiful game Horizon Zero Dawn. Like Red Dead Redemption, this game has some extraordinarily cool weapons that require some extra effort to obtain. In particular, I coveted enhanced versions of weapons called the Icerail, the Forgefire, and the Stormslinger, and I was overjoyed when I finally got together all the goods to claim them.

Unleashing the power of these weapons on the game’s robotic beasts was a literal blast. Suddenly I could do exponentially more damage to my adversaries, plus the enhanced guns are very fun to shoot.

But I quickly learned that the weapons were serious resource guzzlers. I had over 10,000 “metal shards,” the game’s currency, when I first got the guns, but because I had to constantly buy more juice for them, I ended up totally broke after only a few fights with machines. As with the real world, I found that there are plenty of hidden costs associated with shiny new toys that can lead to debt or bankruptcy if you’re not careful.

For me, IRL versions of these temptations are things like boats or horses, both of which are somewhat notoriously impractical purchases. Not only do these types of luxuries have big upfront costs, but they also demand an unpredictable amount of money to maintain and repair, in the case of boats, or keep healthy and safe in the case of horses (as the Simpson family learned in the classic episode “Lisa’s Pony”).

Learning to anticipate the actual experience of life with an impulse buy, as opposed to the idealized version we have in our heads, is a big factor in staying solvent. Aloy’s adventures with her advanced guns—as cool as they are—was a reminder of that reality.

Money Is Not the Same As Value

I recently played through Super Mario Odyssey, one of those games in which money is literally just lying around for the taking wherever you go. But while coins are easy to come by, the game’s main currency is Power Moons, which can be used to unlock new worlds and to fuel Mario’s airship. The Power Moons are normally awarded after completing levels or mini-games within the worlds, or figuring out how to obtain them from difficult to reach places.

But the stores in the game also sell Power Moons, so I thought maybe I could cheat a bit by just buying a bunch of them to fuel up the airship. As I quickly learned, though, before you’ve beat the entire game, you can only buy a single Moon at any shop. The game shows that buying a reward is less satisfying than “working” for the reward (not that it feels like work to play this very fun game).

This emphasis on hard work is central to morality tales about money that date back centuries, such as Aesop’s fable of the grasshopper and the ant. When money is inherited or otherwise not directly earned by an individual’s labor, there’s more of a social stigma attached to it compared to money that is earned by hard work (see: the negative archetypes of the “trust fund baby” or the “trophy wife”).

I admit it’s a stretch to think Super Mario Odyssey is intentionally making a point about how pursuing valuable items through effort is more rewarding than simply buying them outright with easy cash. But the game plays on that psychology nonetheless, in order to encourage richness of gameplay experience, rather than Mario’s literal richness in coins.

Many of us may experience some of the same effect once we start becoming financially independent from our parents. It can be initially intimidating to have to start balancing your own budget, but there’s a satisfaction that comes with earning and spending your own money that can’t be learned secondhand, or through lucky windfalls alone.

Likewise, Super Mario Odyssey reinforces the idea that the gratification of a reward is related to exploration and discovery of pursuit, and the pleasure of new skills, which is more valuable in the long run than any bank account balance.

Of course, plenty of video games are built on some rather bad or even illegal financial habits (looking at you, Grand Theft Auto). But one of the joys of exploring these imaginative worlds and living through a character’s perspective is that every player has a unique individual experience. The above lessons are not revolutionary, and it would be disingenuous to say I spent hours playing these games because I was looking for financial guidance. But encountering money principles in these games enriched my understanding of how I manage my finances in the real world—an environment in which, unfortunately, cash isn’t just littered all over the ground.
