Experimental Anti-Viral MK-4482 To Treat COVID (Rocky Mountain)

 April 16, 2021

 Initial animal tests of a brand new anti-viral medicine has shown what it may treat or even prevent COVID-19.

This could be the magic bullet which could defeat the anti-vaXXers and even the mutations.

MK-4482 shows potential to prevent and treat SARS-CoV-2 infection.

In a press release the NIH just published this information within the hour.

"The experimental antiviral drug MK-4482 significantly decreased levels of virus and disease damage in the lungs of hamsters treated for SARS-CoV-2 infection, according to a new study from National Institutes of Health scientists. SARS-CoV-2 is the virus that causes COVID-19. MK-4482, delivered orally, is now in human clinical trials. Remdesivir, an antiviral drug already approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration for use against COVID-19, must be provided intravenously, making its use primarily limited to clinical settings.

In their study, published in the journal Nature Communications, the scientists found MK-4482 treatment effective when provided up to 12 hours before or 12 hours after infecting the hamsters with SARS-CoV-2. These data suggest that MK-4482 treatment potentially could mitigate high-risk exposures to SARS-CoV-2, and might be used to treat established SARS-CoV-2 infection alone or possibly in combination with other agents. 

The same research group, located at Rocky Mountain Laboratories, part of NIH’s National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases in Hamilton, Montana, developed the hamster model last year to mimic SARS-CoV-2 infection and mild disease in people. The University of Plymouth in the United Kingdom collaborated on these most recent studies."

EGGS and Diabetes - The Truth, Men should Eat Eggs - Doesn't Matter For Women

Women certainly matter, but the latest research shows while eating eggs cuts the chance of men developing Type 2 Diabetes, it doesn't work for women.

From https://siliconsamurai.blogspot.com/

It is a simple question, how does eating eggs 

change your chances of getting diabetes?

If you click on the many ads I don't know what you see.

Read this if you just want the medical facts.

Men eating eggs 2 or 3 times a week have a much,

 MUCH lower chance of developing Type 2 Diabetes- a 40% lower chance.

That means out of 10 middle age or older men who would develop

Type 2 Diabetes based on diet and lifestyle, if they all eat 2-3

eggs each week, only 6 of them will develop it.

Women can ignore this except for your loved ones.

Eat eggs or not, it has no effect on women

developing type 2 diabetes.

That’s the bottom line as we say, although

medical professionals may wish to read the actual research paper

that's the honest summary, everyone can see the study linked below.

Here is the actual science from the National

Institutes of Health listing a major study published

in the Nutritional Research and Practice journal.

“During a 14-year follow up period, 857 subjects developed 

type 2 diabetes. In men, frequent egg intake 

(2- < 4 servings/week) was associated with a 40% 

lower risk of developing type 2 diabetes than infrequent 

egg intake (0- < 1 serving/week) (HR = 0.60, 95% CI: 0.37–0.97), 

whereas no association between egg intake and incidence 

of type 2 diabetes was observed in women 

(HR = 0.61, 95% CI: 0.27–1.37). There was no association 

between cholesterol intake and risk of incident type 2 

diabetes in either men or women.”

President Trump may be suffering from steroid induced mania

 Copied from two discussion groups at the American Association for the Advancement of Science 

David Gergen, who served during the administrations of Richard Nixon, Gerald Ford, Ronald Reagan, and Bill Clinton,

today said, "We are in the hands of a mad man."

Trump is feeling euphoric and best he has in 20 years, but he is also taking very powerful
steroids which not only weaken the immune system, but can produce marked
psychological effects including euphoria.


Steroid-induced psychosis is a well-documented phenomenon. It usually occurs with oral systemic steroid treatment and is more common at higher doses, although there are case reports of occurrence with local steroid injections.
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6793974/

After steroids are discontinued, depressive symptoms persist approximately 4 weeks, mania 3 weeks, and delirium a few days. Approximately one-half of patients with steroid psychosis improve in 4 days and one-half within 2 weeks.

Medical Civil War is here NOW - we are just beginning to see how bad it will get.

You may be surprised to see that I am not going to begin with COVID-19. 

Yes, that is a serious medical problem controlled and worsened by politics, but we are on the verge of a far bigger threat which could easily lead quickly to a violent civil war, not a war of words.

 

President Trump keeps promising to end the payroll tax which pays half the Social Security payments and therefore half the Medicare insurance.

 

So, if re-elected what will happen?

 

He will, with the backing of a Republican Senate (which controls the tax laws) end half the funding for Social Security.

 

Analysts differ but the best case scenario is that SS will be bankrupt in 5 years. The analysis by the experts at the Social Security Administration say either mid or late 2023.

 

The next month every disability and regular Social Security check will bounce.

Reality will overwhelm politics.

 

In a week some people will run out of food.

When the second month's Social Security payment doesn't arrive people will begin hunting down Republican politicians - then any rich, even well-to-do Republicans and, after having their emails and phone calls ignored, begin to ask them some very serious questions in person.

 

By the end of the month it may not be safe to be identified as a Republican.

 

A week later 90% of nursing homes will close putting millions of elderly sick out on the street or on their families.

 

This WILL NOT be the fault of the workers or even the owners of nursing or any elderly housing. They get most of their money from resident’s Social Security and Medicare and most of the workers are minimum wage or a bit more, but definitely the working poor who can't just report for work when they don't get paid.

 

This isn’t Medicaid (welfare) which is paid by governments and you may think it may last a year or more longer.

WRONG - as their SS payments cease most elderly will qualify for state welfare and Medicaid. States are not permitted to run a deficit and can't print money, only the Feds can do that.

 

But the healthy elderly, many of whom have military experience, will see the insurance and pensions they paid into for their entire working lives stop.

How do you think they will react?

How long have YOU gone without food?

How long with the fanatic Trump supporters go without food having to suddenly either care for or bury grandma or even mother who was in a nursing home?

I could be wrong. I HOPE I am wrong.

Vaccines injected into tumors prolong cancer survival

 I reported in another posting that fasting for just one day can drastically improve chemotherapy response and made the bad side effects (nausea, etc.) much less noticeable.

Now I have compiled reports that appear to show a strong correlation between a vaccination - not a "cancer" vaccine, just a common flu vaccine - and increased survival.

In other words any flu vaccine injected right into a tumor seems to have a powerful effect.

I'll add more information as it becomes available.

Sub $100 UVC light kills virus

An inexpensive light can sterilize a room and everything in it.

No scam, proven science which I don't personally sell or profit from.

WARNING! DO NOT USE on skin - also, this intensive light in this frequency will blind you permanently, so the one you want is on a timer and comes with a remote control - you put it in a room with things to sterilize and leave the 60watt UVC light on for an hour or less - it kills bacteria, virus, small bugs, etc. There are several on Amazon identical 2020 version 60W UVC light bars.

Ok, that warning out of the way here's the story.

UVC light kills all bacteria, most or perhaps all viruses, even dust mites.

The science isn't quite to the point where I can guarantee it will kill COVID-19 but that is simply because it hasn't been tested yet and I certainly won't be testing it here myself.

It is proven to kill every other virus, including every coronavirus which has been tested.

This is well known - old information, but these lights used to be very expensive in the thousands or even tens of thousands.

New LED technology makes a light 60 times more intense than the UVC frequency in sunlight for less than $100 and it fits in a regular light socket.

It also uses very little power, the same amount as any old-style 60 Watt light bulb.

There are multiple versions that all seem to be the identical model except for price, shipping times, and such from different vendors with several below $50. What you do is put this in a room and remotely turn it on for an hour or less depending on room size, although you can shift it around and run it again in another part of the room or move it to another room.

This uses a size E26 socket which seems confusing but is simply 26mm standard normal light bulb fixture found in many desk lamps or other light fixtures. Nothing exotic you need to run out and buy virtually everyone would have this type of light fixture.

The ones I would recommend are 60 Watt LED which is like a 500 Watt incandescent and they last tens of thousands of hours. They also include a built-in timer and a remote control so you stay out of the room - seriously, it will cause serious damage to your eyes in seconds - keep pets safe also.

As a bonus, if you follow a famous person's recommendation that you use it on skin you will develop a severe sunburn and eventually skin cancer.

Warm Weather won't stop this virus

Warmer weather may be worse. Australia saw it spreading in warm weather
(77 high/64 low in Sydney) and it is warm in southern states right now but
everyone is getting it. Since people will have cabin fever they will
surge outside in warm weather.

The average high in Baton Rouge is 74 and the average low is 54 but there are
834 confirmed cases, so probably about 5000 just in LA because only New York
is testing a significant percentage of the population.

Experts agree that “almost” isolating is NOT isolating. Standing within 6 ft of
anyone you aren’t already living with is dangerous.

WHO videos related to COVID-19


https://www.who.int/emergencies/diseases/novel-coronavirus-2019 

Those with blood type A are at higher risk than type O.

Data from China shows men are at higher risk, but that may
just be the smoking culture - a lot more men in China smoke
than women, or than here.

This is going to be hard, VERY HARD. Keep in contact with friends
and relatives as much as possible, but do it on the phone or even
better use SKYPE which is a FREE videophone.

It works on my Kindle using WiFi and every computer which has
a camera and microphone, also iPhone and most smartphones.

The software is free and already on many computers, person to person
video is also free to any skype anywhere in the world, I video conference
with my editor in Australia.
