Are Elected County Sheriffs America’s Last Hope to Fight Medical Tyranny? Some Sheriffs Refusing to Enforce Stay at Home Orders, Siding with Constitutional Rights

Every county in the U.S. elects a sheriff to oversee law enforcement within that county .
As elected officials , County Sheriffs take an oath to uphold the Constitution of the United States of America , and protect the constitutional rights of their constituents , even if it means standing up to federal agents and others , like State Governors , who would seek to violate the rights of their constituents within their counties .
Most all other law enforcement departments and administrators in the U.S. are appointed , not elected .
The County Sheriff is the exception .
One @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the Constitutional Sheriffs and Peace Officers Association ( CSPOA ) .
On their “ Statements of Positions ” page they define their duties to uphold the Constitution : Some sheriffs across the U.S. are beginning to take a stand and oppose their State Governors ’ unconstitutional “ Stay at Home ” orders which have put millions of people out of work , and destroyed many thousands of businesses .
Racine , Wisconsin County Sheriff Christopher Schmaling is one of those sheriffs , and he made waves this week when he took a public @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Rights , and against Wisconsin Governor Tony Evers ’ “ Safer at Home ” order .
As ABC local affiliate WISN 12 reports : Schmaling is not alone .
This past week four sheriffs in Michigan took similar stands against Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer .
As The Detroit News reports : Former Sheriff Richard Mack , the Founder of the Constitutional Sheriffs and Peace Officers Association , also published an email newsletter this week titled : A Tale of Two Sheriffs .
This was Dickens ’ analysis of radical opposites between England and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ America is going through similar extreme contrasts today as a result of our own “ Panic-demic ” pursuant to the Coronavirus .
Indeed , as Paine penned “ These are times that try men ’ s souls.
” However , instead of a “ Tale of Two Cities , ” perhaps our present crisis is “ A Tale of Two Sheriffs ” and our analysis takes us to contemporary radical opposites .
On the one hand we have Sheriff Scott Nichols of Franklin County , Maine , who told his Governor that he @ @ @ @ @ @ @ his county a “ Police State.
” Sheriff Nichols went on to say that he and his officers would not act like “ Nazis ” but would continue to respect the liberties of all citizens within their jurisdiction .
Conversely , Sheriff Chad Chronister of Hillsborough County , Florida , arrested Pastor Rodney Howard-Browne for conducting church services at a mega-church in Riverview , Florida .
Sheriff Chronister claimed that the church gathering was an “ unlawful assembly ” according to the State ’ s non-essential services rules .
Pastor Howard-Browne was booked @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
These two sheriffs could not be demonstrating two more extreme contrasts : One siding with American ideals and the U.S. Constitution and the other siding with rules and policies .
One stood against Nazi Germany tactics , the other arrested a clergyman for having church .
The CSPOA asks this question to all Americans and the entire world ; which sheriff , which lawman would you prefer to have working for you ?
The First Amendment reads , “ Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion , or prohibiting @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the right of the people to peaceably assemble… ” Does Pastor Rodney Howard-Browne have the God-given right to conduct his church according to his conscience and to peaceably assemble ?
If he does , no crisis can nullify or set aside such rights .
If government can suspend our liberty and rights whenever they determine the necessity to do so then is there any law or right that public servants can not destroy at will ?
Which is supreme , a rule describing “ essential services ” or the First Amendment ?
Again @ @ @ @ @ @ @ want in your county ?
At this time we must be vigilant and remember that our Founding Fathers created the best contract between a people and their servant government .
This contract has made us the greatest country in history .
The further we drift from our Constitution , the closer we come to reestablishing the Tyranny from which we revolted .
The continuous and gradual theft of our liberties by opportunistic politicians and an overreacting media is destroying our federation .
We agree with voluntary compliance for health and safety , but @ @ @ @ @ @ @ causing more problems for Americans today , and will cause even more for our children tomorrow .
The evidence and solutions proffered to arrest and eliminate the Coronavirus come from many different and often conflicting supposed “ experts ” and leave a confusing melting pot of advice that fails to present a direct path of hope for Americans to cling to .
Whatever the facts and numbers are , the “ cures ” presented are , in many cases , worse than the disease .
So , we must focus on the certainty @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , but not limited to , individual liberty , limited government , enumerated powers , Federalism and state & individual sovereignty .
We can address the majority of these concerns by immediately taking three essential actions : – Unitedly “ appeal to the Supreme Judge of the world for the rectitude of our intentions.
” – Restore our God-given liberties and civil rights .
– Stop the lock-down and restore the economy .
Regardless of the severity of this current crisis , we demand that the process of governing be carried out in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ by our Creator , holding them sacred as part of the Oath of Office .
Therefore , in order to protect the American people , BE IT RESOLVED that the following abuses will not be allowed or tolerated : A ) Registration of personal firearms under any circumstances .
B ) Confiscation of firearms without probable cause , due process , and Constitutionally compliant warrants issued by a local or State jurisdiction .
C ) Inspections of Persons or Property without probable cause and constitutionally compliant warrants as required by the 4th Amendment @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of Citizens without probable cause and proper due process compliance , or the informed consent of the Citizen .
E ) Arrests with continued incarcerations without charges and complete due process , including , but not limited to , public and speedy jury trials .
F ) Domestic utilization of our nation ’ s military or federal agencies operating under power granted under the laws of war against American Citizens .
G ) Government infringement on citizens ’ basic rights .
Those include the right to travel to any public area they wish @ @ @ @ @ @ @ for any reason .
H ) The infringement on parental rights , including the removal of children from their care without probable cause and due process as spelled out in the Bill of Rights .
Parents have the exclusive right to choose or deny medical care , education and religious instruction as they deem essential for their children ’ s welfare .
AND , BE IT FURTHER REAFFIRMED THAT , The enforcement of any “ law ” or policy contrary to the Constitution is criminal and morally reprehensible .
We applaud the many @ @ @ @ @ @ @ who have refused to arrest or cite the people who have chosen to go about their lives .
We also applaud President Trump for his measured approach in the guidelines he has proposed .
Jefferson warned us that in such times , government can reason and persuade , but never use force against the people .
President Trump has displayed true leadership in adhering to this principle .
The most dangerous thing happening in our nation is not the coronavirus , but the destruction of Liberty , the United States Constitution , and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ keeping with our aforementioned goals , we most humbly and fervently implore President Trump to remind us all daily that we are indeed One Nation Under God , by beginning each press conference with a word of prayer .
Also , a plea from each of us that not only will he , the President , keep his oath to uphold and defend the United States Constitution , but that he will expect all local , State and Federal public servants to do the same .
And finally , that we will keep @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , end the lockdown and put all Americans back to work .
We stand together as friends and neighbors to endure this crisis while simultaneously keeping Liberty and America intact for all future generations .
To this end we mutually pledge to ourselves and our posterity , our lives , our fortunes and our sacred honor .
Outbreak ?
We ’ ve been there before Here ’ s a link to a video from 2010 where Richard Mack discussed the importance of maintaining our liberties during the H1N1 swine flu crisis .
Crisis @ @ @ @ @ @ @ The following is a transcription of portions of a recent radio broadcast on Sam ’ s radio show , Liberty RoundTable .
I ’ m going to point out what I would do if I were President .
I would spend my , ( probably not two hours of the seventeen minutes or an hour every single day ) … I would probably spend my time with a whole lot shorter venues , but I would focus on how we ’ re obeying the Constitution – how we ’ re using the checks @ @ @ @ @ @ @ country on the face of the earth .
We are setting this up as a beacon , as a light on a hill to teach the nations of the world how to appropriately share authority , respect power , and literally obey the checks and balances .
That ’ s what I believe .
Look , whenever there is a crisis , whenever there is a crisis of the day as Richard Mack wisely coined , actually that was in a court case .
Whenever there is a crisis of the day , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the Constitution is wonderful Sam but , we are going to set it aside right now because it ’ s crisis time .
When we get back to normal see , then we will go ahead and be super constitutionalists of course .
I have a problem with that !
I think the biggest time we need the checks and balances , the biggest time we need the Constitution , and the vertical and horizontal checks on power…the biggest time we need to obey the Constitution is when there is a crisis .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ to double down and go to the Constitution more than ever – not circumvent it or pretend it doesn ’ t exist or halt it or set it aside temporarily because of the ends justifies the means , or we have to act now .
The Constitution is the political supreme document designed to help us work through this in a way that does not fundamentally change America – that does not put government in control of us – that does not allow government to cross lines of authority .
The constitution is @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the answer in the middle of any crisis .
The bigger the crisis the more the supreme law should be the answer and the more the checks and balances should be followed .
If I were President , that ’ s where I would go .
I would educate people on the checks and balances .
I would educate people on my authority and what I can do .
I would be putting a lot in congress ’ court to work on and do .
I would be doubling down and telling you @ @ @ @ @ @ @ office and what I intend to do to use this supreme law and turn to the Constitution and to God , to work through this crisis in the way the founding fathers intended and I will not violate your rights in the process .
I will do my very best to use the blueprint given to us , specifically designed for when a crisis occurs .
Does that seem like a reasonable way to move forward ?
Good heavens , I have got an oath and I intend to keep it , and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ as well .
We are going to respect the new process of law .
We are going to give you the best guidance we can give you – the best intel on the ground we can give you .
We are going to leave it up to the states and the people respectively , based on the tenth amendment .
We are just going to use this blueprint , baby , like you ’ ve never seen before .
Get on board or get the heck out of the way , people .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ your elected County Sheriff should be protecting your Constitutional rights , even if it means defying your State ’ s Governor , then let your County Sheriff know this , and let him or her know that they do not stand alone !
If you organize protests in your community or at your State Capital , invite your Sheriff to be part of that protest .

Every county in the U.S. elects a sheriff to oversee law enforcement within that county. As elected officials, County Sheriffs take an oath to uphold the Constitution of the United States of America, and protect the constitutional rights of their constituents, even if it means standing up to federal agents and others, like State Governors, who would seek to violate the rights of their constituents within their counties.
Most all other law enforcement departments and administrators in the U.S. are appointed, not elected. The County Sheriff is the exception.
One of the largest Constitutional Sheriffs association is the Constitutional Sheriffs and Peace Officers Association (CSPOA). On their “Statements of Positions” page they define their duties to uphold the Constitution:
America needs to make a strong turn around to get back on the freedom track laid for us by our Founders. We believe it can’t be done from the top down, due to many factors, not the least of which is corruption and entrenched bureaucracies in high places. We must, and we can, accomplish this turn- around starting locally at the county level, and lower. The office of county sheriff is the last hope of making this happen, and we are witnessing great deeds of protection, service, and interposition across America by courageous sheriffs who only want to serve the people who elected them.
Some sheriffs across the U.S. are beginning to take a stand and oppose their State Governors’ unconstitutional “Stay at Home” orders which have put millions of people out of work, and destroyed many thousands of businesses.
Racine, Wisconsin County Sheriff Christopher Schmaling is one of those sheriffs, and he made waves this week when he took a public stand in favor of his constituents Constitutional Rights, and against Wisconsin Governor Tony Evers’ “Safer at Home” order. As ABC local affiliate WISN 12 reports:
On Friday, Schmaling released a statement that said he will not enforce the order because he believes it violates businesses’ and citizens’ constitutional rights. “The overreaching measures taken by State government will have dire lifetime consequences for businesses, homeowners, and families. I took an oath to uphold the constitutional rights of our citizens and I can not in good faith participate in the destruction of Racine County businesses or interfere in the freedoms granted to all of us by our Constitution,” Schmaling’s statement said. (Full Story.)
Schmaling is not alone.
This past week four sheriffs in Michigan took similar stands against Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer. As The Detroit News reports:
The same day thousands rallied in Lansing to protest provisions of Gov. Gretchen Whitmer’s stay-home order, four northern Michigan sheriffs said they would not strictly enforce the order and three Michigan residents filed another federal suit against the governor and county prosecutors tasked with enforcing her order. The four sheriffs from Leelaunau, Benzie, Manistee and Mason counties called Whitmer’s orders “vague” and an “overstepping” of her executive authority. They said they were the “last line of defense in protecting your civil liberties.” “We write today to inform the public of our respective counties of our opposition to some of Gov. Whitmer’s executive orders,” according to a statement sent by the sheriffs. “While we understand her desire to protect the public, we question some restrictions that she has imposed as overstepping her executive authority. She has created a vague framework of emergency laws that only confuse Michigan citizens.” (Full Story.)
Former Sheriff Richard Mack, the Founder of the Constitutional Sheriffs and Peace Officers Association, also published an email newsletter this week titled: A Tale of Two Sheriffs.
A Tale of Two Sheriffs
by Sheriff Richard Mack (Ret)
“It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, it was the season of Light, it was the season of Darkness, it was the spring of hope, it was the winter of despair.”
~ Charles Dickens
This was Dickens’ analysis of radical opposites between England and France during the French Revolution. Perhaps America is going through similar extreme contrasts today as a result of our own “Panic-demic” pursuant to the Coronavirus.
Indeed, as Paine penned “These are times that try men’s souls.” However, instead of a “Tale of Two Cities,” perhaps our present crisis is “A Tale of Two Sheriffs” and our analysis takes us to contemporary radical opposites.
On the one hand we have Sheriff Scott Nichols of Franklin County, Maine, who told his Governor that he would not follow her orders to make his county a “Police State.” Sheriff Nichols went on to say that he and his officers would not act like “Nazis” but would continue to respect the liberties of all citizens within their jurisdiction.
Conversely, Sheriff Chad Chronister of Hillsborough County, Florida, arrested Pastor Rodney Howard-Browne for conducting church services at a mega-church in Riverview, Florida. Sheriff Chronister claimed that the church gathering was an “unlawful assembly” according to the State’s non-essential services rules. Pastor Howard-Browne was booked into jail and then released on bail.
These two sheriffs could not be demonstrating two more extreme contrasts: One siding with American ideals and the U.S. Constitution and the other siding with rules and policies. One stood against Nazi Germany tactics, the other arrested a clergyman for having church.
The CSPOA asks this question to all Americans and the entire world; which sheriff, which lawman would you prefer to have working for you? The First Amendment reads, “Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof, or abridging… the right of the people to peaceably assemble…”
Does Pastor Rodney Howard-Browne have the God-given right to conduct his church according to his conscience and to peaceably assemble? If he does, no crisis can nullify or set aside such rights. If government can suspend our liberty and rights whenever they determine the necessity to do so then is there any law or right that public servants cannot destroy at will? Which is supreme, a rule describing “essential services” or the First Amendment?
Again I ask, which Sheriff do you want in your county?
“One of the most disturbing facts in history is that, in the lifespan of every civilization, there comes a time of crisis when the primal instinct of collective survival overrides all other values.”
~ G. Edward Griffin
At this time we must be vigilant and remember that our Founding Fathers created the best contract between a people and their servant government. This contract has made us the greatest country in history.
The further we drift from our Constitution, the closer we come to reestablishing the Tyranny from which we revolted. The continuous and gradual theft of our liberties by opportunistic politicians and an overreacting media is destroying our federation. We agree with voluntary compliance for health and safety, but the solutions now being presented are only causing more problems for Americans today, and will cause even more for our children tomorrow.
The evidence and solutions proffered to arrest and eliminate the Coronavirus come from many different and often conflicting supposed “experts” and leave a confusing melting pot of advice that fails to present a direct path of hope for Americans to cling to. Whatever the facts and numbers are, the “cures” presented are, in many cases, worse than the disease. So, we must focus on the certainty of the Principles of Liberty, including, but not limited to, individual liberty, limited government, enumerated powers, Federalism and state & individual sovereignty.
We can address the majority of these concerns by immediately taking three essential actions:
– Unitedly “appeal to the Supreme Judge of the world for the rectitude of our intentions.”
– Restore our God-given liberties and civil rights.
– Stop the lock-down and restore the economy.
Regardless of the severity of this current crisis, we demand that the process of governing be carried out in full acknowledgement of the unalienable rights granted by our Creator, holding them sacred as part of the Oath of Office.
Therefore, in order to protect the American people, BE IT RESOLVED that the following abuses will not be allowed or tolerated:
A) Registration of personal firearms under any circumstances.
B) Confiscation of firearms without probable cause, due process, and Constitutionally compliant warrants issued by a local or State jurisdiction.
C) Inspections of Persons or Property without probable cause and constitutionally compliant warrants as required by the 4th Amendment.
D) The detainment or search of Citizens without probable cause and proper due process compliance, or the informed consent of the Citizen.
E) Arrests with continued incarcerations without charges and complete due process, including, but not limited to, public and speedy jury trials.
F) Domestic utilization of our nation’s military or federal agencies operating under power granted under the laws of war against American Citizens.
G) Government infringement on citizens’ basic rights. Those include the right to travel to any public area they wish, and the right to reject medication for any reason.
H) The infringement on parental rights, including the removal of children from their care without probable cause and due process as spelled out in the Bill of Rights. Parents have the exclusive right to choose or deny medical care, education and religious instruction as they deem essential for their children’s welfare.
AND, BE IT FURTHER REAFFIRMED THAT,
“…The Constitution protects us from our own best intentions. It divides power among sovereigns and among branches of government so that we may resist the temptation to concentrate power in one location as an expedient solution to the crisis of the day.”
(Mack/Printz v US)
The enforcement of any “law” or policy contrary to the Constitution is criminal and morally reprehensible. We applaud the many sheriffs, peace officers and public servants who have refused to arrest or cite the people who have chosen to go about their lives.
We also applaud President Trump for his measured approach in the guidelines he has proposed. Jefferson warned us that in such times, government can reason and persuade, but never use force against the people. President Trump has displayed true leadership in adhering to this principle. The most dangerous thing happening in our nation is not the coronavirus, but the destruction of Liberty, the United States Constitution, and the American Dream.
Therefore, in keeping with our aforementioned goals, we most humbly and fervently implore President Trump to remind us all daily that we are indeed One Nation Under God, by beginning each press conference with a word of prayer.
Also, a plea from each of us that not only will he, the President, keep his oath to uphold and defend the United States Constitution, but that he will expect all local, State and Federal public servants to do the same.
And finally, that we will keep the April 30th deadline and reopen America, end the lockdown and put all Americans back to work. We stand together as friends and neighbors to endure this crisis while simultaneously keeping Liberty and America intact for all future generations.
To this end we mutually pledge to ourselves and our posterity, our lives, our fortunes and our sacred honor.

The pharmaceutical trade publication , Fierce Pharma , is a publication targeting investors in pharmaceutical products , such as vaccines .
This week ( April 2020 ) they published an article titled : Don ’ t count on a COVID-19 vaccine for at least five years , says AI-based forecast Investors want to be assured that a new product does not get rushed to market too quickly , bypassing safety regulations , for obvious reasons .
They have learned their lessons from previous products that gained FDA approval but later turned out to harm people , like the Merck VIOXX @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to 60,000 people are suspected of dying due to dangerous side effects of the drug , before it was pulled from the market .
A company called Clarivate has developed an analytical tool called Cortellis Analytics which apparently uses artificial intelligence to predict how long it will take to bring a certain drug to market .
Using a tool it developed called Cortellis Analytics , Clarivate estimated that Moderna has just a 5 % probability of success with its COVID-19 vaccine mRNA-1273 , and that the time window for approval would be 5.2 @ @ @ @ @ @ @ reflects the fact that mRNA is a new , unproven approach to vaccines , said Sarah Hardison , Ph.D. , head of product , regulatory and pharmacovigilance at Clarivate , in an email .
What could change these predictions is whether or not companies developing the vaccine would be granted “ emergency-use approval from the FDA to get mRNA-1273 on the market quickly.
” When asked if Moderna might get an emergency-use approval from the FDA to get mRNA-1273 on the market quickly , Zaks said he couldn ’ t make any promises @ @ @ @ @ @ @ is going to be an evolving one…as the data matures to make that determination , ” he said .
“ So it ’ s very hard to predict today.
” Clarivate ’ s Cortellis tool uses machine learning to forecast development timelines and the probability of success for drug candidates that have entered clinical trials .
The firm said in a recent online post that as of April 8 there are 185 companies and research institutes working on 156 COVID-19 medicines and vaccines , 11 % of which are in clinical development .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ was Inovio ’ s DNA vaccine INO-4800 , which the company moved into clinical testing last week .
Clarivate forecasts a probability of success of 15 % for INO-4800 and an approval timeline of 5.5 years .
As Fierce Pharma reports , Clarivate is not the only medical analytics company raising questions about the fast-approval process for a COVID-19 vaccine .
Clarivate isn ’ t the only firm raising questions about the growing optimism that a solution to COVID-19 will rescue everyone from their quarantines soon .
Analysts at SVB Leerink spoke to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ warned in a report to investors that “ safety is often more important than efficacy to regulators , and long-term safety must be established before ” a vaccine will be approved .
So while politicians and drug companies are out in the public these days conditioning the public to accept a fast COVID-19 vaccine to be available to the public in a short time , investors are obviously a bit more skeptical , and more concerned with safety over an entirely new class of vaccines that seeks to alter people ’ s DNA @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Top Vaccine Promoters Frantically Warning About the Frightening Dangers in Developing a Coronavirus Vaccine ?
Will a COVID19 Vaccine be the First Vaccine to Alter Human DNA to Further Advance Transhumanism ?

Leaving a lucrative career as a nephrologist ( kidney doctor ) , Dr. Suzanne Humphries is now free to actually help cure people .
In this autobiography she explains why good doctors are constrained within the current corrupt medical system from practicing real , ethical medicine .

The low probability of success reflects the fact that mRNA is a new, unproven approach to vaccines, said Sarah Hardison, Ph.D., head of product, regulatory and pharmacovigilance at Clarivate, in an email.
What could change these predictions is whether or not companies developing the vaccine would be granted “emergency-use approval from the FDA to get mRNA-1273 on the market quickly.”
When asked if Moderna might get an emergency-use approval from the FDA to get mRNA-1273 on the market quickly, Zaks said he couldn’t make any promises. “The decision on emergency use is going to be an evolving one…as the data matures to make that determination,” he said. “So it’s very hard to predict today.” Clarivate’s Cortellis tool uses machine learning to forecast development timelines and the probability of success for drug candidates that have entered clinical trials. The firm said in a recent online post that as of April 8 there are 185 companies and research institutes working on 156 COVID-19 medicines and vaccines, 11% of which are in clinical development. The other vaccine candidate that Clarivate evaluated was Inovio’s DNA vaccine INO-4800, which the company moved into clinical testing last week. Clarivate forecasts a probability of success of 15% for INO-4800 and an approval timeline of 5.5 years.
As Fierce Pharma reports, Clarivate is not the only medical analytics company raising questions about the fast-approval process for a COVID-19 vaccine.
Clarivate isn’t the only firm raising questions about the growing optimism that a solution to COVID-19 will rescue everyone from their quarantines soon. Analysts at SVB Leerink spoke to a vaccine development-specialist earlier this month and warned in a report to investors that “safety is often more important than efficacy to regulators, and long-term safety must be established before” a vaccine will be approved.
So while politicians and drug companies are out in the public these days conditioning the public to accept a fast COVID-19 vaccine to be available to the public in a short time, investors are obviously a bit more skeptical, and more concerned with safety over an entirely new class of vaccines that seeks to alter people’s DNA.

healthimpactnews--2020-04-20--Are COVID19 Death Statistics being Inflated to Justify Government Actions?

On Mar .
19 , 2020 , the number of deaths attributed to COVID-19 in Italy reached 3,405 .
The number was significant in that it surpassed the number of COVID-19 deaths in China , which stood at 3,245 at the time , and thus it was widely reported by the media.1 2 3 4 The following day , the president of the Italian Civil Protection Department , Angelo Borrelli , held a press briefing regarding the COVID-19 outbreak in the country and he specifically addressed the death count.5 6 7 Borrelli stressed… Borrelli was clarifying that the 3,405 people @ @ @ @ @ @ @ COVID-19 even though they tested positive for the coronavirus that can cause the disease .
He was making the distinction between dying with the virus and dying from the virus , which is not a negligible thing .
Particularly when the perceived lethality of the virus may be the key factor behind public policy decisions to encourage “ social distancing , ” quarantine certain people and mandate the closure of large segments of society and even potentially institute martial law , suspend constitutional rights and violate basic civil liberties .
Professor Walter Ricciardi @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ’ s Ministry of Health , confirms Borrelli ’ s point .
He recently noted that the way in which doctors code deaths in Italy is “ very generous in the sense that all the people who die in hospitals with the coronavirus are deemed to be dying of the coronavirus.
” 7 8 9 10 So why offer what appears to be an inflated figure for COVID-19 deaths in Italy ?
Why not simply provide the actual number of people who died from COVID-19 ?
In a health crisis where the public @ @ @ @ @ @ @ inaccurate information that can only serve to panic people further ?
Padding the numbers doesn ’ t make sense unless the goal is to create more fear and panic .
So if 3,405 people reportedly died of COVID-19 in Italy by Mar .
19 and not all of them died with COVID-19 as the primary cause of death , then what was the real number ?
According to Prof. Ricciardi : If that ’ s true , then , of the 3,405 deaths initially reported in Italy as being solely caused by COVID-19 @ @ @ @ @ @ @ be classified as COVID-19 deaths .
That is a huge discrepancy , and one that can dramatically skew the public ’ s view of the impact of COVID-19 in Italy .
What if this same dynamic were in play in the United States ?
What if only 12 percent of the deaths attributed to COVID-19 in the U.S. were actually caused by the virus ?
It turns out that such a question may not be as implausible as some may think .
On Apr .
7 , 2020 , Minnesota state senator and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in an interview that he had received a seven-page document from the Minnesota Department of Health “ coaching ” him on how to fill out death certificates .
He said he felt he was being told that he didn ’ t have to have a “ confirmed laboratory test for COVID-19 in order to make the death certificate be COVID-19.12 Dr. Jensen expressed concern about this policy and how it misrepresents the deaths due to COVID-19 .
“ When we start talking about the data that goes into the modeling , we have @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Are we being forthright [ with the public ] ?
’ he said .
“ We don ’ t need to be having it sugarcoated.
” 12 When asked why he thought health authorities would want to skew the mortality numbers for COVID-19 , Dr. Jensen said : Well , fear is a great way to control people , and I worry about that .
I worry that sometimes we ’ re so darn interested in just jazzing up the fear factor that sometimes people ’ s ability to think for themselves is @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , and that ’ s not where I want people to be .
I want people to say we ’ re going to get through this , I ’ m going to use my head .
I ’ m going to go to different sources .
I ’ m going to listen to different sources , and I ’ m going to think for myself… because that ’ s what America is about.12 Internal medicine specialist Annie Bukacek , MD of Hosanna Health Care in Kalispell , Montana also recently expressed concern about @ @ @ @ @ @ @ reporting COVID-19 deaths .
“ Is this death rate based on truth ?
” asked Dr. Bukacek .
“ Are the reported deaths from COVID-19 truly deaths from COVID-19 ?
” The Center for Disease Control [ … ] still states that “ mortality ” data includes both confirmed and presumptive positive cases of COVID-19 .
The CDC counts both true COVID-19 cases and speculative guesses of COVID-19 the same , they call it death by COVID-19 .
They automatically overestimate the real death numbers by their own admission.… We need to understand @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Statistics System are instructing physicians to fill out death certificates related to COVID-19 .
Brace yourselves , and please pay attention and let what I ’ m about to tell you sink in .
The assumption of COVID-19 death could be made even without testing .
Based on assumption alone , the death can be reported to the public as another COVID-19 casualty.13 If a patient is positive for COVID-19 and dies from another cause such as pneumococcal sepsis , it may be considered accurate to say that person died with COVID-19 not @ @ @ @ @ @ @ lists this case as one more COVID-19 death and they go to the next questionable death , they label that as COVID-19 and it goes on and on .
You could see how these statistics have been made to look scary when it is so easy to add false numbers to the official database .
Those false numbers are sanctioned by the CDC…13 Dr. Bukacek believes that the “ real number ” of deaths from COVID-19 are “ not what most people are told and what they then think.
” She thinks that @ @ @ @ @ @ @ s guess.
” 13 This is a stunning revelation .
COVID-19 mortality figures have been used to institute unprecedented federal government guidelines for quarantining healthy people and state laws for restricting civil liberties .
How can there be this level of inaccurate , incomplete mortality data on a health crisis of this apparent magnitude ?

Miscounting Deaths from Coronavirus?
On Mar. 19, 2020, the number of deaths attributed to COVID-19 in Italy reached 3,405. The number was significant in that it surpassed the number of COVID-19 deaths in China, which stood at 3,245 at the time, and thus it was widely reported by the media.1 2 3 4
The following day, the president of the Italian Civil Protection Department, Angelo Borrelli, held a press briefing regarding the COVID-19 outbreak in the country and he specifically addressed the death count.5 6 7 Borrelli stressed…
I want you to remember these people died with the coronavirus and not from the coronavirus.6 7
Borrelli was clarifying that the 3,405 people who died did not all die from COVID-19 even though they tested positive for the coronavirus that can cause the disease. He was making the distinction between dying with the virus and dying from the virus, which is not a negligible thing.
Particularly when the perceived lethality of the virus may be the key factor behind public policy decisions to encourage “social distancing,” quarantine certain people and mandate the closure of large segments of society and even potentially institute martial law, suspend constitutional rights and violate basic civil liberties.
Professor Walter Ricciardi, who is an adviser to Italy’s Ministry of Health, confirms Borrelli’s point. He recently noted that the way in which doctors code deaths in Italy is “very generous in the sense that all the people who die in hospitals with the coronavirus are deemed to be dying of the coronavirus.”7 8 9 10
So why offer what appears to be an inflated figure for COVID-19 deaths in Italy? Why not simply provide the actual number of people who died from COVID-19? In a health crisis where the public is already fearful, why put publish inaccurate information that can only serve to panic people further?
Padding the numbers doesn’t make sense unless the goal is to create more fear and panic.
So if 3,405 people reportedly died of COVID-19 in Italy by Mar. 19 and not all of them died with COVID-19 as the primary cause of death, then what was the real number? According to Prof. Ricciardi:
On re-evaluation by the [Italian] National Institute of Health, only 12 percent of death certificates have shown a direct causality from coronavirus, while 88 percent of patients who have died have at least one pre-morbidity—many had two or three.7 8 9 10 11
If that’s true, then, of the 3,405 deaths initially reported in Italy as being solely caused by COVID-19, only 409 of them actually can be classified as COVID-19 deaths. That is a huge discrepancy, and one that can dramatically skew the public’s view of the impact of COVID-19 in Italy.
What if this same dynamic were in play in the United States? What if only 12 percent of the deaths attributed to COVID-19 in the U.S. were actually caused by the virus?
It turns out that such a question may not be as implausible as some may think. On Apr. 7, 2020, Minnesota state senator and family physician Scott Jensen, MD said in an interview that he had received a seven-page document from the Minnesota Department of Health “coaching” him on how to fill out death certificates. He said he felt he was being told that he didn’t have to have a “confirmed laboratory test for COVID-19 in order to make the death certificate be COVID-19.12
Dr. Jensen expressed concern about this policy and how it misrepresents the deaths due to COVID-19. “When we start talking about the data that goes into the modeling, we have to ask ourselves a question. ‘Are we being forthright [with the public]?’ he said. “We don’t need to be having it sugarcoated.”12
When asked why he thought health authorities would want to skew the mortality numbers for COVID-19, Dr. Jensen said:
Well, fear is a great way to control people, and I worry about that. I worry that sometimes we’re so darn interested in just jazzing up the fear factor that sometimes people’s ability to think for themselves is paralyzed if they’re frightened enough, and that’s not where I want people to be. I want people to say we’re going to get through this, I’m going to use my head. I’m going to go to different sources. I’m going to listen to different sources, and I’m going to think for myself… because that’s what America is about.12
Internal medicine specialist Annie Bukacek, MD of Hosanna Health Care in Kalispell, Montana also recently expressed concern about the way the U.S. health authorities are reporting COVID-19 deaths. “Is this death rate based on truth?”asked Dr. Bukacek. “Are the reported deaths from COVID-19 truly deaths from COVID-19?”
Dr. Bukacek added:
The Center for Disease Control […] still states that “mortality” data includes both confirmed and presumptive positive cases of COVID-19. The CDC counts both true COVID-19 cases and speculative guesses of COVID-19 the same, they call it death by COVID-19. They automatically overestimate the real death numbers by their own admission.… We need to understand how the CDC and the National Vital Statistics System are instructing physicians to fill out death certificates related to COVID-19. Brace yourselves, and please pay attention and let what I’m about to tell you sink in. The assumption of COVID-19 death could be made even without testing. Based on assumption alone, the death can be reported to the public as another COVID-19 casualty.13 If a patient is positive for COVID-19 and dies from another cause such as pneumococcal sepsis, it may be considered accurate to say that person died with COVID-19 not from COVID-19. Yet the CDC guideline lists this case as one more COVID-19 death and they go to the next questionable death, they label that as COVID-19 and it goes on and on. You could see how these statistics have been made to look scary when it is so easy to add false numbers to the official database. Those false numbers are sanctioned by the CDC…13
Dr. Bukacek believes that the “real number” of deaths from COVID-19 are “not what most people are told and what they then think.” She thinks that the real number is “anyone’s guess.”13

Today we continue to offer alternative perspectives from other scientists and medical doctors on the COVID-19 virus, and the response to it. As I have previously written, we feel it is important to give a voice to all sides of this current pandemic, especially because so much is being censored from the coporate-sponsored “mainstream” media.

healthimpactnews--2020-04-21--Dr. Fauci’s Attempt to Silence Whistleblower Dr. Judy Mikovits Which Destroyed her Career

“ Judy Mikovits is Among Her Generation ’ s Most Accomplished Scientists.
” —Robert F. Kennedy , Jr. Dr. Mikovits joined NIH in 1980 as a Postdoctoral Scholar in Molecular Virology at the National Cancer Institute and began a 20-year collaboration with Frank Ruscetti , a pioneer in the field of human retro virology .
She helped Dr Russetti isolate the HIV virus and link it to # AIDS in 1983 .
Her NIH boss Anthony Fauci delayed publication of that critical paper for 6 months to let his protégé Robert Gallo replicate , publish and claim credit .
The @ @ @ @ @ @ @ further spread around the globe and helped Fauci win promotion to director NIAID .
In 2006 , Dr Mikovits became director of Whittemore Peterson Institute for Neuro-Immune Disease and collaborated with Dr Ruscetti searching for the cause of Chronic Fatigue Syndrome which suddenly became epidemic in the 1980s .
The male dominated medical community dismissed CFS as psychosomatic “ yuppie flu ” caused when fragile females cracked in corporate jobs .
Dr. Mikovits discovered that 67 % of affected women carried a virus—called Xenotropic Murine Leukemia related Virus—that appeared in healthy women only @ @ @ @ @ @ @ is also associated with prostate , breast , ovarian cancers , leukemia , and multiple myeloma .
Many women with XMRV bore children with autism .
In 2009 , Drs .
Mikovits and Ruscetti published their explosive findings in the journal Science .
But the question remained : how was XMRV getting into people ?
Other researchers linked the first CFS outbreak to a polio vaccine given to doctors and nurses that resulted in the “ 1934 Los Angeles County Hospital Epidemic.
” That vaccine was cultivated on pulverized mouse brains .
Retroviruses @ @ @ @ @ @ @ lines and permanently contaminate vaccines .
Dr Mikovits ’ studies suggested that the XMRV Virus was present in the MMR , Polio and Encephalitis vaccines given to American children and soldiers .
XMRV is so hazardous that the mere presence of mouse tissue in a laboratory can contaminate other tissues in the same room .
Dr Fauci ordered Mikovits to keep her mouth shut .
When she refused , he illegally confiscated her work books and hard drives , drove her from government work and blackballed her from receiving NIH grants ending her @ @ @ @ @ @ @ vaccines .
The Truth About Fauci , featuring Judy Mikovits , Joint PhD in Biochemistry and Molecular Biology , George Washington University ; Postdoctoral Scholar in Molecular Virology National Cancer Institute ; Research Director of Whittemore Peterson Institute for Neuro-Immune Disease and target of Anthony Fauci—Twice .
In Washington DC Fauci ’ s tactics are an open secret .
Intimidation .
Bullying .
And reckless disregard for the health and safety of the American people .
Dr. Judy Mikovits was one of the most skilled scientists of her generation .
She had a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ pioneer in the field of human retro virology .
Mikovits : I took a job at the National Cancer Institute .
I was under the direction of Frank Ruscetti .
I isolated HIV from blood and saliva confirming Dr. Luc Montagnier ’ s earlier isolation and description of HIV as a possible causative agent of AIDS .
I refused to do that because it ’ s unethical .
Mikovits : When Frank Ruscetti was out of town , I received a call from Dr. Fauci and he demanded that I give him our @ @ @ @ @ @ @ HIV , while it was still in press .
I refused to do that because it ’ s unethical .
These manuscripts are confidential and only authors can give him a copy .
Dr. Mikovits ’ standards of ethics and moral courage are unparalleled .
Mikovits : He threatened to fire me for insubordination but still I refused .
It ’ s unethical .
Mikovits : When Frank Ruscetti returned a few weeks later , he gave the manuscript to Dr. Fauci , and Dr. Fauci purposely delayed the publication of our manuscript @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Robert Gallo , could copy our work and submit a competing manuscript and get it into press before ours .
On May 4 , 1984 , Dr. Robert Gallo famously published a series of papers demonstrating that a retrovirus he ’ d isolated was the cause of AIDS .
Appropriating her work wasn ’ t the worst of it .
This delayed the development of testing and spread the HIV epidemic through the world , killing millions .
Driven by greed and cronyism , Anthony Fauci— ” America ’ s Doctor ” —is @ @ @ @ @ @ @ HIV throughout the world .
Rather than being punished for his actions , six months later he was appointed Director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases–a position he still holds today .
Mikovits : In 2006 I co-founded and developed the first neuroimmune disease institute to study the cause and treatments of chronic fatigue syndrome .
Chronic Fatigue Syndrome became epidemic in the 1980s .
Doctors dismissed the ailment as psychosomatic “ yuppie flu.
” CFS primarily struck women .
The medical community assumed they were physically and emotionally fragile @ @ @ @ @ @ @ jobs .
Dr. Mikovits discovered that 67 % of women affected with CFS carried a mouse virus–called XMRV– Xenotropic Murine Leukemia related Virus–that appeared in healthy women only 4 % of the time .
XMRV is also associated with cancers like prostate , breast , ovarian , leukemia , and multiple myeloma .
Many women with XMRV go on to have children with autism .
In 2009 , Drs .
Mikovits and Ruscetti published their explosive findings in the journal Science .
But the question remained : how was XMRV getting into people @ @ @ @ @ @ @ our research strongly suggested that it entered the human virome through a contaminated blood supply and vaccines .
Other researchers linked the first CFS outbreak to a polio vaccine given to doctors and nurses that resulted in the “ 1934 Los Angeles County Hospital Epidemic.
” That vaccine was cultivated on pulverized mouse brains .
Retroviruses from dead animals can survive in cell lines and permanently contaminate vaccines .
Retroviruses from those dead animals can survive in cell lines and permanently contaminate the vaccines .
XMRV is so hazardous that the mere presence @ @ @ @ @ @ @ contaminate other tissues in the same room .
Dr. Mikovits ’ studies suggested XMRV is present in the MMR and polio vaccines given to American children and the Japanese encephalitis vaccine given to military personnel .
The dangers of mouse brain derived vaccines are now widely acknowledged .
Mikovits : We recognized that this mouse retrovirus was causing an alarming national health crisis .
That is if the blood supply and vaccines were heavily contaminated with mouse retroviruses of many strains .
As Dr. Mikovits and her team prepared to sound the alarm @ @ @ @ @ @ @ silence her .
Mikovits : What Tony Fauci , Ian Lipkin and Harold Varmus did was pressure me to be silent and withdraw our manuscript .
I refused again .
Anthony Fauci gave his own career and the vaccine program priority above the health and safety of all Americans .
Mikovits : When I refused to be silent , Dr. Fauci stepped in and ordered that my computers and notebooks be confiscated and orchestrated the retraction of our science paper .
Dr. Fauci abused his power and misused his office .
Mikovits : @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and prevented me from getting a job in government research from 2012 forward .
Hundreds of millions of Americans may have received vaccines contaminated with XMRV .
Are you prepared to trust him ?

She helped Dr Russetti isolate the HIV virus and link it to #AIDS in 1983. Her NIH boss Anthony Fauci delayed publication of that critical paper for 6 months to let his protégé Robert Gallo replicate, publish and claim credit. The delay in mass HIV testing let AIDS further spread around the globe and helped Fauci win promotion to director NIAID.
In 2006, Dr Mikovits became director of Whittemore Peterson Institute for Neuro-Immune Disease and collaborated with Dr Ruscetti searching for the cause of Chronic Fatigue Syndrome which suddenly became epidemic in the 1980s. The male dominated medical community dismissed CFS as psychosomatic “yuppie flu” caused when fragile females cracked in corporate jobs.
Dr. Mikovits discovered that 67% of affected women carried a virus—called Xenotropic Murine Leukemia related Virus—that appeared in healthy women only 4% of the time.
XMRV is also associated with prostate, breast, ovarian cancers, leukemia, and multiple myeloma. Many women with XMRV bore children with autism.

The Truth About Fauci, featuring Judy Mikovits, Joint PhD in Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, George Washington University; Postdoctoral Scholar in Molecular Virology National Cancer Institute; Research Director of Whittemore Peterson Institute for Neuro-Immune Disease and target of Anthony Fauci—Twice.
In Washington DC Fauci’s tactics are an open secret. Intimidation. Bullying. And reckless disregard for the health and safety of the American people.
Dr. Judy Mikovits was one of the most skilled scientists of her generation. She had a 20-year collaboration with Frank Ruscetti, a pioneer in the field of human retro virology.
The first Fauci episode:
Mikovits: I took a job at the National Cancer Institute. I was under the direction of Frank Ruscetti. I isolated HIV from blood and saliva confirming Dr. Luc Montagnier’s earlier isolation and description of HIV as a possible causative agent of AIDS. I refused to do that because it’s unethical.
And then, Anthony Fauci intervened.
Mikovits: When Frank Ruscetti was out of town, I received a call from Dr. Fauci and he demanded that I give him our manuscript on the isolation and confirmation of HIV, while it was still in press. I refused to do that because it’s unethical. These manuscripts are confidential and only authors can give him a copy.
Dr. Mikovits’ standards of ethics and moral courage are unparalleled.
Mikovits: He threatened to fire me for insubordination but still I refused. It’s unethical.
Mikovits: When Frank Ruscetti returned a few weeks later, he gave the manuscript to Dr. Fauci, and Dr. Fauci purposely delayed the publication of our manuscript in order that his crony, Dr. Robert Gallo, could copy our work and submit a competing manuscript and get it into press before ours.
On May 4, 1984, Dr. Robert Gallo famously published a series of papers demonstrating that a retrovirus he’d isolated was the cause of AIDS.
Appropriating her work wasn’t the worst of it. This delayed the development of testing and spread the HIV epidemic through the world, killing millions.
Driven by greed and cronyism, Anthony Fauci—”America’s Doctor”—is directly responsible for the further spread of HIV throughout the world.
Rather than being punished for his actions, six months later he was appointed Director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases–a position he still holds today.
The second Fauci episode:
Mikovits: In 2006 I co-founded and developed the first neuroimmune disease institute to study the cause and treatments of chronic fatigue syndrome.
Chronic Fatigue Syndrome became epidemic in the 1980s. Doctors dismissed the ailment as psychosomatic “yuppie flu.” CFS primarily struck women. The medical community assumed they were physically and emotionally fragile and cracked under the pressure of corporate jobs.
Dr. Mikovits discovered that 67% of women affected with CFS carried a mouse virus–called XMRV– Xenotropic Murine Leukemia related Virus–that appeared in healthy women only 4% of the time. XMRV is also associated with cancers like prostate, breast, ovarian, leukemia, and multiple myeloma. Many women with XMRV go on to have children with autism.
In 2009, Drs. Mikovits and Ruscetti published their explosive findings in the journal Science. But the question remained: how was XMRV getting into people?
Mikovits: Then in 2011, our research strongly suggested that it entered the human virome through a contaminated blood supply and vaccines.
Other researchers linked the first CFS outbreak to a polio vaccine given to doctors and nurses that resulted in the “1934 Los Angeles County Hospital Epidemic.” That vaccine was cultivated on pulverized mouse brains. Retroviruses from dead animals can survive in cell lines and permanently contaminate vaccines.
Retroviruses from those dead animals can survive in cell lines and permanently contaminate the vaccines.
XMRV is so hazardous that the mere presence of mouse tissue in a laboratory can contaminate other tissues in the same room.
Dr. Mikovits’ studies suggested XMRV is present in the MMR and polio vaccines given to American children and the Japanese encephalitis vaccine given to military personnel.
The dangers of mouse brain derived vaccines are now widely acknowledged.
“… mouse brain derived vaccine has been associated with serious allergic and neurologic adverse events.” –American Academy of Pediatrics
Mikovits: We recognized that this mouse retrovirus was causing an alarming national health crisis. That is if the blood supply and vaccines were heavily contaminated with mouse retroviruses of many strains.
As Dr. Mikovits and her team prepared to sound the alarm, Dr. Fauci used his power to silence her.
Mikovits: What Tony Fauci, Ian Lipkin and Harold Varmus did was pressure me to be silent and withdraw our manuscript. I refused again.
Anthony Fauci gave his own career and the vaccine program priority above the health and safety of all Americans.
Mikovits: When I refused to be silent, Dr. Fauci stepped in and ordered that my computers and notebooks be confiscated and orchestrated the retraction of our science paper.
Dr. Fauci abused his power and misused his office.
Mikovits: He then removed all of my funding and prevented me from getting a job in government research from 2012 forward.
Hundreds of millions of Americans may have received vaccines contaminated with XMRV.
Anthony Fauci has failed us.
Are you prepared to trust him?

healthimpactnews--2020-04-21--Dr. Brownstein: Over 100 Patients Treated for COVID19 so far with No Hospitalizations and No Deaths

These are tough times .
The mainstream media ( MSM—CNN , Fox , and nearly every other news station ) is reporting 24/7 about COVID-19 .
We hear about every death in real time .
We get daily updates about how many are infected and how many are dying .
Listening to the MSM would have anyone believe that we have a plague on our hands that is not only infecting everyone , it is killing nearly everyone who becomes ill with it .
Folks , this is a perfect example of “ Fake News.
” COVID-19 is neither infecting @ @ @ @ @ @ @ majority who get infected .
I have been writing about his since the start of the crisis .
The best advice I can give you is to turn off the news .
I can ’ t stomach watching it .
I have been treating patients with COVID for the past 6 weeks and finding success in using vitamins ( A , C , D ) and iodine along with IV dosing of hydrogen peroxide , vitamin C and ozone .
Is this a cure for COVID-19 ?
No , I do not claim @ @ @ @ @ @ @ I am reporting how our patients are doing on the therapies that we are recommending .
The ultimate cure for COVID-19 is full herd immunity .
That only comes when the majority of us have immunity against the virus .
I know there is good news about COVID-19 out there but you won ’ t see much of that from MSM , as good news does not seem to sell as well as bad news .
Before I go on , let me again state that I understand that COVID-19 is a serious @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and friends become ill with it .
Some have suffered tremendously from it .
Thank goodness , none have died .
However , there are many who have died from the virus and , unfortunately , until this is over , there are more who will die from it .
COVID-19 has hit us fast and hard but we will get past this .
Things are already improving as hospitals in COVID-19 hot spots are not as full and now there is little concern that we will run out of respirators for those @ @ @ @ @ @ @ shuttered right now .
The economy is a mess as we have millions who have filed for unemployment .
Enough about the bad news .
So what is the good news now ?
As I stated above , at my office—The Center for Holistic Medicine–we have seen patient after patient with COVID symptoms improve on our therapies .
We have treated over 100 patients and , so far , we have no hospitalizations and no deaths .
My partners and I continually share notes and we are all seeing the same positive results @ @ @ @ @ @ @ what we are doing numerous times in my blog posts .
We have seen some patients respond well to oral therapies including high doses of vitamins A , C , D as well as iodine .
Many others , especially those with lung problems , have improved when they started nebulizing hydrogen peroxide and iodine .
Others have needed IV dosing of vitamin C , hydrogen peroxide and ozone to overcome COVID-19 .
I have posted numerous video testimonials detailing our patients ’ stories .
To watch our patient testimonials , take a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Channel : Center for Holistic Medicine COVID Program Folks , there are treatments that work .
We have found that following our protocol has helped over 100 patients to date .
It is safe and effective .
Conventional medicine is still searching for its silver bullet in the form of a hydroxychloroquine or Remdesivir .
I hope those therapies pan out .
There is much talk about a vaccine for COVID-19 .
However , a vaccine probably won ’ t be available for at least six months to a year .
We simply @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that .
COVID-19 will not wait for a vaccine .
It is here now .
Instead of focusing on the silver bullet that kills the virus , conventional medicine should be focusing on the host .
If the host has a strong immune system , he/she should be able to recover from COVID-19 and receive life-long immunity .
Remember , there are over 200 flu-like viruses with COVID-19 being one of them .
In the future , there will be other viruses and some may be more severe .
We should be focusing @ @ @ @ @ @ @ order to give us the best chance to fight off a future infection .
More good news came from a Stanford study that was released Friday , April 18 , 2020 .
The study was undertaken to gain more information on how widespread COVID-19 is .
Since the start of this illness , we lacked the proper testing kits .
Even today , we are lacking proper testing kits .
It is shameful .
How do we know how deadly this illness is if we don ’ t know how many are actually @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of this crises we have only been testing the sick .
This will serve to artificially inflate the death rate .
For example , if two people in a town have strep throat and one dies , the death rate can be calculated as 50 % ( 1/2 ) .
But , if 1,000 people in the town have strep throat and one dies , the true death rate is 0.1 % ( 1/1,000 ) .
The MSM has been reporting a death rate for COVID from 2-4 % .
That is a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ from the seasonal flu is around 0.1 % .
However , many more have COVID—they just aren ’ t being tested .
I have written about this numerous times .
Let ’ s get back to the Stanford study .
The researchers conducted a seroprevalence study of Santa Clara County , Calif on April 3-4 .
They studied a sample of 3,300 residents to test for antibodies to COVID-19 .
The scientists found that the number of people infected with COVID-19 was much larger than the 1,000 ( or so ) known positive @ @ @ @ @ @ @ being tested across the country so far are the very sick and hospitalized .
The results show that between 2.5 and 4.2 % of the county residents are estimated to have antibodies against the virus .
That means 48,000 to 81,000 actually had the virus—not 1,000 .
That is 50-85 times as high as the number of known cases !
These numbers , when finally tabulated , will show the death rate for COVID-19 at or slightly higher than the 0.1 % death rate for seasonal influenza-like illnesses .
Folks , that is @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and more people who have been exposed to COVID-19 and now have immunity against it .
It is the only way to get herd immunity .
And , the vast majority who get COVID recover uneventfully—that is just what I have been writing to you over the last six weeks .
We need to lower our fear level—now .
COVID-19 is a serious illness .
However , it is not Ebola or hemorrhagic fever that kills 50 % of those infected .
The final data will show that well over 99.9 % of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ if you get COVID-19 , there are therapies that help you get over it .
Read my posts .
My entire library of COVID-19 blogs and patient testimonials can be found here : Dr Brownstein ’ s Blogs : Corona Virus COVID-19 is a wakeup call for all of us .
We need to live a healthier lifestyle which includes avoiding refined sugar and maintaining adequate hydration .
We need to ensure that we have adequate vitamin and mineral levels BEFORE we become ill with an infection .
We need to support the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ help with IV vitamin therapies such as vitamin C. Ozone and hydrogen peroxide not only have anti-infective properties , they also help the immune system rev up its fight against a foreign invader .
It is time to find a holistic doctor and to treat yourself holistically .
Otherwise , you can lockdown for six months to a year while waiting for a vaccine .
Note : These therapies should be supervised by a physician .

Final Thoughts
We need to lower our fear level—now. COVID-19 is a serious illness. However, it is not Ebola or hemorrhagic fever that kills 50% of those infected. The final data will show that well over 99.9% of us will survive COVID-19.
And, if you get COVID-19, there are therapies that help you get over it. Read my posts. My entire library of COVID-19 blogs and patient testimonials can be found here: Dr Brownstein’s Blogs: Corona Virus
COVID-19 is a wakeup call for all of us. We need to live a healthier lifestyle which includes avoiding refined sugar and maintaining adequate hydration.
We need to ensure that we have adequate vitamin and mineral levels BEFORE we become ill with an infection. We need to support the immune system when it needs a little help with IV vitamin therapies such as vitamin C.
Ozone and hydrogen peroxide not only have anti-infective properties, they also help the immune system rev up its fight against a foreign invader. It is time to find a holistic doctor and to treat yourself holistically.
Otherwise, you can lockdown for six months to a year while waiting for a vaccine.
