“Samantha was at the White House in October, for IVF. She truly loved Kyle! Rest in Peace Kyle Busch. You will always be a LEGEND! President DONALD J. TRUMP” – Trump said on Truth Social.
I have personal experience with this substance. We saved our dog with it last year after he was attacked by another dog.
There's a reason why no-one's heard of this. It's cheap, and extremely effective. Takes the wind right out of the sails of big pharma profit models.
It was given this name by NASA a few decades ago, so the government knows what's what.
You can get a kit that provides hundreds of doses for peanuts on Amazon of all places. Just don't use it internally (wink).
“He probably waited too long to see a doctor,”
He had a doctor that was treating him. They referred to a nasal infection.
Correct
yesterday it was just a rumor...........
I don’t trust doctors. That is one reason........
Little good it will do him now.
IT IS AN INFECTION THAT QUICKLY BECOMES RAMPANT & UNCONTROLLABLE.
“He probably waited too long to see a doctor, and tried to tough it out, thinking it was just a cold or flu”
same thoughts here ... probably using the race car driver’s favorite, toradol, to treat symptoms ...
Sepsis from untreated pneumonia is not a suspicious illness.
My mother had sepsis and it was touch and go but she survived and so did my best friends husband. I think sepsis is a 50% chance of death.
It’s why they recommend a pneumonia shot at age 65, but he was young. Sad.
OK...
I have diverticulosis and will be on guard in case it progresses to an active infection. A friend of mine had the same thing happen to him as you have described. He is okay now but he had some very close calls before the infection was cleared up. Diverticulitis is no joke.
One of the under reported travesties of the Fauci-inspired Covid inquistion was the persecution and canceling of Dr. Paul Marik, who had been the Director of the intensive care unit at Senrara Hospital of Eastern Virginia Medical School. He was achieving remarkable recovery rates in septic shock using high dose IV vitamin C as part of his protocol, that probably would put him on pharmaceutical companies’( or goon squad segments of them) hit list. They drove him out, despite his credentials and prestige, like Peter McCullough, because he dared to try to help people instead of letting them die to the propagandistic value to the anti-Trump Democrats.
I’ve known at least four people who were ‘vaccinated’ and boosted, then came down with very rare cancers.
Two are dead and the others are not in good shape.
How does sepsis develop from pneumonia? I normally associate sepsis from some breach within the bowels to the blood stream.
Pneumonia shot for strep pneumoniae only (common “community acquired pneumonia), there maybe a couple others now, but there are many bacterial species that cause pneumonia that on’t be covered by shot. Strep pneumonia onset usually classic with high fever, shaking chills, shortness of breat. This sounds indolent, it smoldered a while.
it just means the bacteria have broken into the blood stream and a culture of bacteria can be grown in the lab from the blood. the bacteria then seed other organs with profound physiologic effest. Urinary tract, lung are commonly associated, skin also ( cellulitis). As much as we bash big Pharma, there is a lot of good from their products.
I worked with a man who had a respiratory infection, and had taken a couple of days off to get better. Another coworker and I went to visit him after work and he was coughing up blood. I immediately called his wife, who was at work and told her. He kept telling us he was Okay so his wife called EMS and we stayed with him till his wife and the ambulance got there. He was delirious by that time. They barely saved his life. We had a talk when he got back to work a few weeks later and he told us that he thought he could tough it out.
If you paid anything more than a day-old cold cup of coffee to this PI, you likely got ripped off.
