Natural Immunity : Previous COVID infections provide long-lasting Immunity

As government agencies push people to get vaccinated even if they’ve already had COVID, evidence is piling up that previously infected persons have a long-lasting immunity — possibly lifelong.

According to an article in the journal Nature, “People who recover from mild COVID-19 have bone-marrow cells that can churn out antibodies for decades.” It’s possible that the viral variants going around right now could “dampen” some of the protection, but the journal still says that people who had SARS-CoV-2 “will probably make antibodies against the virus for most of their lives.”


This is a positive follow-up to hints in early 2021 that the immunity could last at least five months, and possibly longer. At the time in one study by Public Health England, only 44 of 6,614 previously infected persons caught the virus again.

In numbers, this means that previous infection gives 94% protection against reinfection and 83% reduced risk for all infections, Daily Mail reported.

Bayer stops with Glyphosate Herbicides

Beginning in 2023, AG Bayer’s Monsanto unit will stop selling glyphosate-based products in the U.S. and substitute them with “alternative active ingredients.”

The decision follows ongoing litigation regarding the carcinogenicity of Monsanto’s Roundup weed killer. Sustainable Pulse and Detox’s project director Henry Rowlands commented on Bayer’s announcement, saying, “It is a great victory in a small battle for the removal of glyphosate from the lawn and garden market.

“However, this is just part of a much larger war. We must all remember that this will not stop glyphosate being sprayed in parks, schools and on our food crops in ever greater amounts across the U.S. and the world. It is time to phase the chemical out globally and to replace it with safe alternatives.”

Monsanto was engaged in a “deep, coordinated effort to smear, discredit and try to shut down” any information linking Roundup to cancer

Who is hiding the Covid origin?

 In its September 2019 report, the Global Preparedness Monitoring Board — a joint arm of the World Health Organization and the World Bank — warned that technological advances “allow for disease-creating micro-organisms to be engineered or recreated in laboratories,” and that the release of such organisms could cause greater devastation than a natural outbreak

    On the Board are Sir Jeremy Farrar (director of the Wellcome Trust) and Dr. Anthony Fauci (director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, NIAID), both of whom have defended the zoonotic origin theory for SARS-CoV-2 and helped suppress the lab-leak theory
    February 1, 2020, Farrar set up a confidential conference call with a dozen individuals, including Fauci. Two days later, WHO director-general Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus made a public call for censorship of “misinformation”

    Five days after that call, Peter Daszak circulated the first draft of a scientific consensus statement that eventually got published in The Lancet, and thereafter was used by mainstream media and fact checkers everywhere to “debunk” any and all evidence of a lab leak

    Six weeks after Farrar’s group call, several of the participants published a commentary in Nature Medicine, in which they stated they “do not believe that any type of laboratory-based scenario is plausible”

But according to James Meigs: "The dam is breaking. And with the surging floodwaters, comes a stunning realization: Almost across the board, our elite institutions got the most important question about COVID wrong"

    “The story of why the line of inquiry survived is not an account of leading scientists and health organizations dutifully parsing the evidence.

    Instead, it is largely the story of little-known researchers — many working outside the bounds of elite institutions — who didn’t let the political implications of their findings derail their efforts.

    Much of what we know today about the Wuhan Institute’s risky research is thanks to these independent skeptics who challenged the institutional consensus. Some risked their careers to do so.”

Vaccine deaths, Where are the Autopsies?

A doctor is questioning the lack of autopsies being performed after someone dies after a COVID vaccine because doing so could tell health experts many things about the nature of the disease — not to mention that it would show accountability for those deaths.

Dr. Jane Orient, executive director of the Association of American Physicians and Surgeons, says the toll of post-vaccine deaths has reached nearly 7,000, but she has seen only one autopsy report related to those deaths.

In her experience, Orient said, when a patient without a medical history dies, it requires a call to a medical examiner and that person must decide whether an autopsy is called for. “If an injection had been given, the vial would be recovered, if possible,” she said. “With vaccines, one is supposed to record the lot number, so it would be possible to check a sample for contaminants. If the patient died in hospital, the medical resident was required to request permission for an autopsy.”

She urges people who have unexpectedly lost a loved one to call the medical examiner and demand a forensic autopsy.

Frankenstein Research Uses Aborted Babies’ Parts

In experiments bordering on the freakish labors of the fictional Dr. Frankenstein, researchers at the University of Pittsburgh have been using aborted human babies’ parts to “humanize” mice.

In one study funded in part by the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) — of which Dr. Anthony Fauci is director — the experiments involved fusing the human babies’ body parts onto the mice to grow skin and cells. The human baby parts, which included liver, thymus and spleen parts in addition to scalps, reportedly came from either aborted or stillborn fetuses up to 5 months’ gestation.

In the published report, scientists said they received written consent from the mothers to use the babies for the experiments. Photos reproduced by The Sun from the actual study show human hair growing from the backs of the mice after having the aborted human scalps grafted onto them.

The study was published September 3, 2020, in the journal Nature. In it, scientists explain the purpose of the experiment was to study community-associated methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (CA-MRSA), as well as Lyme disease and dengue fever, in hopes of finding possible vaccines for the diseases.

Aborted human baby parts have been used for years in research. One of the most recent studies was published July 7, 2021, in which researchers at the University of Pittsburgh’s School of Medicine used the parts to look at HIV infections and antiviral therapies for HIV. This study also used human fetal thymus, liver and spleen tissu

Obesity worsens Covid-19

According to Joel Hirschhorn, member of the Association of American Physicians and Surgeons, and America’s Frontline Doctors, governments have missed a public health opportunity by not issuing recommendations for effective and sustainable weight loss to lower your risk for severe COVID-19 infection and death

Research has shown vaccines tend to be less effective in obese individuals, and if that holds true for injected gene therapeutics against COVID, then the shots may turn out disappointing results, seeing how 42.4% of Americans are obese

The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has detailed the connection between COVID-19 severity and obesity, admitting that obesity is associated with worse COVID-19 outcomes   

According to the CDC, modeling suggests 30.2% of all American adults hospitalized for COVID-19 up until November 18, 2020, could be attributed to obesity, and the greater your body mass index (BMI) the higher your risks for a poor outcome gets
   
Obesity increases your risk of severe COVID-19 illness and triples your risk of hospitalization. It impairs your immune function, decreases your lung capacity and increases your risk of ending up on invasive mechanical ventilation. Obesity is also associated with chronic inflammation that can disrupt thrombogenic responses to pathogen

Coronavirus Spreading Among the Vaccinated in Highly Vaccinated Countries

A recent study published by King's College in London, which operates the ZOE COVID Study app to monitor COVID infection and vaccination rates, found that, as of July 15, 2021, there was an average of 15,537 new daily symptomatic cases COVID-19 among partly or fully vaccinated people in the United Kingdom—an increase of 40 percent from the previous week's total of 11,084 new cases.1,2
Infections in Vaccinated People in U.K. Are Outpacing Infections in the Unvaccinated

The Zoe COVID Study, led by epidemiologist Tim Spector, MD, of Kings College in London, estimated that there were 17,581 new daily symptomatic cases of COVID-19 in unvaccinated people, or 22 percent less than the previous week's total of 22,638 new cases.

According to a press release issued by the study's authors, "With cases in the vaccinated group continuing to rise, the number of new cases in the vaccinated population is set to overtake the unvaccinated in the coming days."3,4

On July 17, the U.K.'s Health Secretary, Sajid Javid, announced he had tested positive for the SARS-CoV-2 virus despite having received two doses of the AstraZeneca/Oxford University's experimental AZD1222 COVID vaccine on Mar. 17 and May 16.5 In a message posted on Twitter, Javid wrote:

    "This morning I tested positive for COVID. I'm waiting for my PCR result, but thankfully I have had my jabs and symptoms are mild."6

With a population of more than 66 million people, two-thirds of adults in the U.K. have received COVID-19 vaccine, representing a total of 82,592,996 vaccinations as of July 20. Some 46,349,709 Britons have received the first dose and 36,243,287 have gotten the second dose. The country is not vaccinating children.7

The U.K. is among the most highly vaccinated countries in the world, but it is experiencing a third wave of coronavirus infections reportedly largely due to the spread of the Delta variant of the virus.8,9 Other highly vaccinated countries like Israel are also experiencing a new wave of coronavirus infections due to the Delta variant.
Most Infections in Israel Are Among Vaccinated People

In Israel, about 60 percent of the country's population of 9.3 million has received at least one dose of a COVID vaccine. About 85 percent of adults in Israel have been vaccinated. Yet most of the new coronavirus infections are occurring in vaccinated people.10

In early-July, former Health Minister Chezy Levy, MD confirmed that "55 percent of the newly infected [people in Israel] had been vaccinated."11

There has also been a concerning rise in the number of vaccinated people in Israel being hospitalized. An article in The Jerusalem Post last week noted that the Israeli Health Ministry reported 124 people had been hospitalized for COVID-19 on July 20 and that 65 percent of them were fully vaccinated. Of the 124 people, 62 were in serious condition and 70% of those patients were fully vaccinated.12

Earlier this month, the Health Ministry estimated that the Pfizer/BioNTech's BNT162b2 COVID biologic was only 64 percent effective in preventing symptomatic infections of COVID-19, specifically those caused by the Delta variant. But the effectiveness rate for Pfizer's experimental COVID vaccine in preventing infection (and transmission) could be lower.13

"We do not know exactly to what degree the vaccine helps, but it is significantly less," said Israel's Prime Minister Naftali Bennett.14
Infections in Chile, Seychelles and Mongolia Mostly in Vaccinated People

Another example of a highly vaccinated country which has been experiencing a new outbreak of coronavirus infections mostly among its vaccinated population is Chile. Of the thousands of new coronavirus cases being reported daily in that country, 80 percent of them are in vaccinated people. Chile has fully vaccinated 55 percent of its population.15

The examples of the U.K., Israel and Chile, as well as other highly vaccinated countries like the Seychelles and Mongolia experiencing coronavirus infections mostly within the vaccinated segments of their populations pose a dilemma.16 The governments of these countries have to decide if the problem is that not enough of their people have been vaccinated, or that the vaccines are simply not as effective as initially assumed they would be.
Could Vaccinations Be Causing Rise in Infections?

There is also a third possible problem which was raised by French virologist and Nobel laureate Luc Montagnier, MD in May 2021. In an interview with Pierre Barnérias of Hold-Up Media, Dr. Montagnier said he believed that the mass vaccination programs for COVID may actually be causing SARS-CoV-2 mutations like the Delta variant and, thus, prolonging the pandemic.17

Dr. Montagnier explained that in each country that undertakes a mass vaccination campaign, "the curve of vaccinations is followed by the curve of deaths." He said that the COVID vaccines create antibodies that force the virus to "find another solution" or "die," adding that it is the variants that "are a production and result from the vaccination."18

Dr. Montagnier's views are admittedly controversial. The thought that vaccinations may actually be exacerbating the COVID pandemic is perhaps too difficult a concept for government officials to consider. But this possibility should not be dismissed outright.

One of the best explanations of this dynamic was given by Barbara Loe Fisher, co-founder and president of the National Vaccine Information Center (NVIC) in a 2011 interview when she described the evolution of pertussis bacteria to evade the vaccines:

    "[E]very life form wants to live, wants to survive. Universal principle. And viruses and bacteria are no exception. And when you put a pressure on a virus or bacteria that's circulating, with the use of a vaccine that contains a lab-altered form of that virus or bacteria, it doesn't seem that it would be illogical to understand that that organism is going to fight to survive, it's going to find a way to adapt in order to survive."19
