Our best defense against anything is having knowledge. Be forewarned, if you read this and apply critical thought, there is a possibility that you may actually become a conspiracy theorist.
It is my hope that by sharing this story, I may help some other person or their loved one(s).
My wife's mom came down with the symptoms of a head-chest cold about 3 1/2 - 4 weeks ago. She eventually went to her doctor when it did not improve for about a week. I will give him credit for common sense, knowing that the current test for the boogie man is totally unreliable, he did not do the test. Instead he treated her for bronchitis, a diagnosis that he has conducted many times in the past 20 years practicing medicine. Over the next several days she improved. About a week or so after initially seeing the doctor, the chest congestion was increasing. Last Tuesday her pulse-ox was 85-87, quite low so Vicki took her to the hospital. Having knowledge of what current protocols are, and what they actually do to patients, I warned Vicki of what to expect. Hospitals will almost immediately administer remdesivir and place on a ventilator, assuming that all respiratory cases are the boogie man (they did in fact want to do this). I know that remdesivir has caused renal failure in up to 30% of patients and that ventilators have caused permanent lung damage in up to 25% of patients. The hospital was instructed to only use a nasal canular at 4-6 liters of O2, IV vitamin C with zinc, and a proven bacterial pneumonia antibiotic. (They gave her levofloxacin).Shortly after administering supplemental O2, her pulse-ox was over 90. She went in on Tuesday afternoon and came home on Friday afternoon. I am totally convinced that if the hospital had used the current protocols, she would still be hospitalized and her condition would be questionable. Few doctors and hospitals are actually treating patients, instead they are following protocols. Knowing that there are treatments for the current scare which have been proven effective is your best defense against the bureaucracy. I don't know if she had/has a case of bacterial pneumonia or the boogieman, and I really don't care what it was. The key is that hospitals are typically simply treating symptoms based on a faulty protocol, and it's killing people. There are a lot of places to find all of this information, much of it can be found at Time to Free America.
