It’s been the same every Sunday for more than a month.

Then it's time to put out a Call:

Calling ALL Prayer Warriors!

John 5:16 says, "...for the prayer of a righteous person is powerful and effective."

Please join in asking our Heavenly Father to heal and save those afflicted by this plaque sweeping across our land and the world, and grant us a miracle, if it be His will, that all the world may witness His power and glory. In your name Father, and your Son's name, and of Holy Spirit we humbly ask.

Amen, Amen, and Amen...

“Scenarios vs current comparison for NY:

Current (Covid-19):
Deaths = 4,159
Hospitalization = 16,479

Moderate Scenario
Deaths = 19,799
Hospitalization = 97,791
Verdict of ventilators: SURPLUS

Severe:
Deaths = 162,830
Hospitalization = 804,247
Verdict of ventilators: -15,783”

Looking good.
NY was crying wolf and the media was all in with them.

ethnic cleaning?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yBqEP9G7_uY
(video is of arrest and incarceration at a TB hospital and two phone calls. The transcript below is what was posted in the description portion of the youtube video)

SOUTH AFRICA

#COVID19SouthAfrica State Sponsored #COVID19 Kidnappings have begun in SA where the ANC are exerting their extra totalitarian powers afforded them by the State of Disaster. Like in China, two white female doctors who tested positive for COVID19 but were asymptomatic, have been arrested, after a court order was obtained, at their house and forced into quarantine at a Limpopo multi-drug resistant tuberculosis hospital.

The guidelines say that if you’re positive but are asymptomatic or have mild disease, you can be quarantined at home which is what they were doing. However Vavi and other political leaders who are also COVID19 positive have not been treated this way?

They had previously been refused COVID19 testing as they had no travel history and were also forced to work without sufficient protective medical clothing.
Chairperson of the South African Medical Association (SAMA), Angelique Coetzee has written a strong open letter to the MEC for Health in Limpopo expressing their concern.

Dr Williams had flu like symptoms since 23 March but she was told by superiors to work on and was not tested until 29 March. She was first told by her superiors that she would not be tested because she did not travel overseas and was not in contact with anyone who did.

Drs Olivier and Williams who worked work at Mmametlhake Hospital in Mpumalanga, but lived in Limpopo informed the South African Medical Association that they were also not allowed to have patients tested for COVID-19 - even if they showed flu like symptoms, if the patients did not travel overseas or were in contact with someone who did. Something SA-News had said a month ago was a mistake.

The doctors told SAMA that they were told by superiors to send people home from hospital with medication for flu and cold, even when they possibly had COVID-19. The doctors said as a result of the Health Department not allowing them to be tested earlier, they are unsure when exactly they contracted COVID-19.

Dr Olivier spoke to Dr Phopi Ramathuba, MEC for Health in Limpopo, (recording in video), on the phone, explaining that although they are positive for COVID-19, they are not sick and are self isolating. Dr Ramathuba said to her that it won’t matter if she is Bill Gates, if someone tests positive for COVID-19 in Limpopo, the person will be quarantined at a state hospital.

It also looks like the atrocious treatment of these 2 young state doctors is just the tip of the iceberg and that all hospitals in South Africa were caught unawares by this virus, with no proper protocol in place to safeguard doctors, nurses and the public against the spread of the virus on hospital premises.

Young state doctors, many in their first community service year - that is their first year after university - say they are working without protective equipment. Unions in the health sector say the same thing.

This is not an attempt to be alarmist if one considers what happened at the private St. Augustines hospital in Durban. St Augustine’s emergency room was already closed because of widespread COVID-19 infection and all hospitals could very well shortly be infected and render most doctors, nurses and patients there sick. Three people died within 72 hours in the Netcare St Augustine hospital from COVID-19. According to the CEO of the Netcare group, Dr Richard Friedland, not one of the three showed any symptoms of COVID-19 when they were admitted. They also did not travel overseas or were in contact with anybody who tested positive for COVID-19. The doctor did not mention that the patients could have gotten COVID-19 in the hospital itself. It is also reported that 11 Healthcare workers at the hospital tested positive for COVID-19.

This total lack of preparedness and a strategy against COVID-19 could very well develop into a tragic situation in the coming 2 weeks if something is not urgently done, however given the ANC’s obsession with plundering the state coffers and anti white racism, the state is simply not in a position to cope with any disaster, no matter how much money is thrown at the problem....

How come the USA doesn’t have any of those cool dystopian type cleaning machines? Along with some sexy computerized woman’s voice over a loud speaker saying stuff like “Central authority cleansing of citizen spaces is ongoing, please step aside.”

china’s not hoarding masks, they’re doing the world a favor by saving Chinese...by sending virus-laden test kits out to the world, well, some things just aren’t quite said are they?

(when she speaks of ‘imported cases’ bear in mind that not only is China NOT airlifting their citizens out of other countries, they have restricted travel to accepting only one incoming flight per week)

(31 Mar 2020) China says it is not “hoarding” face masks amidst soaring global demand related to the coronavirus pandemic.

“I totally disagree,” said Hua Chunying , a spokesperson for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs at a regular news conference on Tuesday, when asked about the allegations.

“At present, the epidemic situation in China is not over, it’s still stressful to control imported cases and prevent the ressurgence of indigenous cases, and the demand for related medical supplies also remains high,” Hua said.

Hua said China was already making a huge contribution to global public health security by ensuring the safety of 1.4 billion Chinese people.

“Doctors and ME’s are not committing organized fraud, and they are not part of some kooky conspiracy to overthrow Trump.”

I was reading an article where some doctors/ caregivers are looking back to the increase of pneumonia deaths they had in early to mid March and now thinking “Hmm - I bet those were Corona virus.”

I'm guessing that is true, and I'm guessing their will be some rare mistakes made in the hectic race to clear dead people out of the hospital to make way for new patients. So the numbers probably even out. And it would seem to me, even if a person with a history of heart disease dies of a heart attack but has CV-19, it was the CV-19 that pushed him over the edge.

Data Point - who’s watching the henhouse?

Some 430,000 people flew from China to US after coronavirus first detected: report

Even after the order went into effect on February 2, some 40,000 people – traveling on 279 flights – have arrived in the U.S. from China, according to the analysis from the New York Times based on data collected in both countries. …

...Some of those flights arrived within the past week from Beijing into major U.S. airports in Los Angeles, San Francisco, and New York. ..

Many passengers arriving from China within the past two months said they experienced lax screening procedures at U.S. airports. Some travelers said they had their temperatures taken and filled out health forms, but were not intensely questioned and were never contacted again, the Times reported.
Others said they were told to self-quarantine for 14 days and received two reminder text messages but received no further follow-up from the CDC or local health officials.

15 Min Blood drop test explained from INDIA
about 3 min in:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wSA_6rzzvwU

C = Control - if this is the only line it means you haven’t contracted COVID

G = IgG = these show up late = infected more than 20-25 days ago and should have some immunity

M = IgM = these are the first antibodies that show up = recent infection within the previous 4-9 days = recently infected

lines on both G and M = infected within the last 20-25 days.

antibodies no longer detectable after 45 days? does this happen only in asymptomatics or in all?

also mentioned in this video is the Iceland testing. 5% of their population sampled, 1% CV positive, 50% of the 1% asymptomatic

Hi datura --

Rather important.

From this link ("anonymnous" internet posting I found)

https://www.freerepublic.com/focus/chat/3831993/posts?page=170#170

Here’s where COVID-19 comes in. Its glycoproteins bond to the heme, and in doing so that special and toxic oxidative iron ion is “disassociated” (released). It’s basically let out of the cage and now freely roaming around on its own. This is bad for two reasons: 1) Without the iron ion, hemoglobin can no longer bind to oxygen. Once all the hemoglobin is impaired, the red blood cell is essentially turned into a Freightliner truck cab with no trailer and no ability to store its cargo.. it is useless and just running around with COVID-19 virus attached to its porphyrin. All these useless trucks running around not delivering oxygen is what starts to lead to desaturation, or watching the patient’s spo2 levels drop. It is INCORRECT to assume traditional ARDS and in doing so, you’re treating the WRONG DISEASE.

2) That little iron ion, along with millions of its friends released from other hemes, are now floating through your blood freely. As I mentioned before, this type of iron ion is highly reactive and causes oxidative damage. It turns out that this happens to a limited extent naturally in our bodies and we have cleanup & defense mechanisms to keep the balance.

Once your body is now running out of control, with all your oxygen trucks running around without any freight, and tons of this toxic form of iron floating around in your bloodstream, other defenses kick in. While your lungs are busy with all this oxidative stress they can’t handle, and your organs are being starved of o2 without their constant stream of deliveries from red blood cell’s hemoglobin, and your liver is attempting to do its best to remove the iron and store it in its ‘iron vault’.

= = = = = = = =

Here's the point.

Can anyone find out --

a) if datura's article on proteins, identifies which protein chews up heme and releases the iron

b) *if* any existing bat coronavirus or pangolin virus, does the same.

If not? Bioweapon.
