China Virus and Immunity

Yes, this is another article on the China virus! It is the topic of the year, with so much misinformation I feel the need to present a reasoned argument for sanity in this “crisis.”

If you’ve read these columns for any amount of time, I’d guess you already know I’m not a fan of vaccines, in most any case. A Covid vaccine will not change my attitude on this topic.

If they made a vaccine out of saline water and just told everyone that it worked, I’d be all for it just to get back to normal life! Beyond that, let all the sheeple take any vaccine that they come up with, while you continue a healthy lifestyle.

Covid-19 and Obesity

This China virus sure does have people relying on false information for everything from mask use to who’s at risk. 

There is risk in every move you make, every day.  This virus is no different. Some people are at elevated risk, others have very little risk.  So how do you discern who is at risk and who is not? Are there any parameters you can measure to see if you are high or low risk? Absolutely!

Dr. Mercola did an interview with Dr. Aseem Malhotra, a British cardiologist, who delves into the role insulin resistance plays in the Covid-19 pandemic picture.

Dr Malhotra claims the real pandemic is poor metabolic health. As early as March, the data out of China and Italy showed a clear link with obesity and poor outcomes with this virus.
