COVID Mess: ‘Something Very Dark Is Happening’
Townhall.com ^ | 19 January A.D. 2023 | Will Alexander

Posted on 01/19/2023 7:10:37 PM PST by lightman

A co-worker of mine here in California told me about a friend of his, Dave, who never got the COVID shot but, in late December 2021, got COVID. In his early 50s, remarkably fit, with no comorbidities, and with Christmas just a couple of days away, he figured he could ride out the virus at home.

But he only got worse, ending up with symptoms so severe that his wife, fearful for his health, insisted that he go to the hospital after Christmas. With his lungs failing, Dave was put on a ventilator. But once the machine took over his lung function, his lungs atrophied to a point where, without a major medical intervention, he was in big trouble.

Doctors recommended extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO), a procedure that temporarily removes the blood from the body, oxygenates it, removes the carbon dioxide, then pumps the blood back through the body.

But there was one caveat. To get the procedure, both he and his wife would have to get COVID shots – no exceptions. With what the couple was learning about vaccine injuries and the low efficacy of shots and boosters, they felt the risks far outweighed the benefits. Besides, he already had COVID. Natural immunity. Right?

The hospital didn’t budge. No shot, no procedure. With his life in their hands, this quickly morphed into a nightmare. But the couple didn’t budge, either. At first.

With time running out, they searched for the rare hospital that had an expensive ECMO machine that would perform the procedure without forcing them to get the shot. No luck. The best they could find was one that only required him, not her, to get it.

So after months of avoiding it, Dave reluctantly, grudgingly, frustratingly agreed to get the shot. That’s when the nightmare plunged into medical hell.

As his wife described, “his skin boiled off of his body.” Dave had to be mummied in gauze like a burn victim. Aside from now being disfigured for life, his pain was unbearably excruciating – like the feeling of being lit on fire and burning alive.

Admitting that the shot caused the reaction, doctors asked Dave’s wife to consent to the second shot – to be “fully vaccinated” – so they could get to the procedure that could save his life. Understandably, that moment struck her with lightning bolts of life-altering emotional torture. To save his life, she picked what she felt was the best of horrible choices and consented.

But over time, it really wouldn’t matter. The ECMO machine didn’t work. Dave now needed a lung transplant. After being transferred an hour or so to the Los Angeles county health system – the belly of the beast of medieval-like COVID protocols – Dave, mostly alone, quickly lost the will to live.

His wife got the dreaded call around 2 a.m. on May 28 – five months nearly to the day after he entered the first of three hospitals. Dave was dying.

After the call, she made the surreal trip to Los Angeles, fought for nearly an hour to get through a labyrinth of prison-like COVID procedures, and finally made it to her husband’s bedside, where he was screaming in pain.

“Can’t you do something for him?!” she asked.

“No,” said a robotic nurse. “We’re not allowed to medically assist patients at this point.”

That’s how Dave left the world in 2022 – screaming in pain inside a bleak LA County hospital, completely muted to the world, with his traumatized wife watching, consoling, and struggling with the turmoil of a tortuous goodbye.

My co-worker’s wife, a childhood friend of Dave’s wife who helped relay this story to me, ended the saga with a sobering observation.

“The people who let this happen to my friend’s husband,” she said, “are the same ones who talk endlessly about compassion, and who ride around with ‘Be Kind’ bumper stickers on their cars.”

But it’s much worse than that.

Screams from highly credentialed doctors, desperate to save lives, were also effectively muted to the world. They’ve been shouting, for years now, that COVID hospitalizations and deaths could’ve been drastically reduced with early treatment using cheap, safe, but highly effective repurposed drugs.

In December 2020, a full year before Dave got COVID, Wisconsin Sen. Ron Johnson held a Senate hearing on early treatment of COVID using repurposed drugs where intensive care specialist Dr. Pierre Kory delivered impassioned testimony on the “miraculous impact” of Ivermectin as a foundation to protocols in early COVID treatment.

Here’s an extended excerpt from Kory’s testimony that I believe, if authorities had heeded, could’ve saved countless lives who, like Dave, were told to do nothing “until their lips turned blue” before being rushed to a hospital:

“We have a solution to this crisis … In early outpatient treatment, we have three randomized controlled trials, multiple observations, as well as case series showing that, if you take Ivermectin, the need for hospitalization and death will decrease. … It is critical in this disease.

“We have a hundred thousand patients in the hospital right now dying. I’m a lung specialist. I’m an ICU specialist. I’ve cared for more dying COVID patients than anyone can imagine. They’re dying because they can’t breathe! They can’t breathe!

“They’re on high-flow oxygen delivery devices, they’re on non-evasive ventilators, and/or they’re sedated, paralyzed, and attached to mechanical ventilators that breathe for them. And I watched them every day. They die. By the time they get to me in the ICU, they’re already dying and almost impossible to recover. Early treatment is key.

“… We are tired. I can’t keep doing this. … If I have to go back to work next week, any further deaths are going to be needless deaths, and I cannot be traumatized by that. I cannot keep caring for patients when I know they could’ve been saved with earlier treatment.

What normal human being with basic common sense would’ve ignored this doctor’s advice? Yet YouTube censored that hearing. And strangely, Kory and some of the world’s most highly published physicians have been maligned as “conspiracy theorists” and spreaders of mis- and disinformation for simply refusing to unsee what they witnessed on the front lines of the pandemic.

“Something very dark was happening,” wrote mRNA pioneer Dr. Robert Malone in his book Lies My Government Told Me after his wife, Jill’s, self-published COVID guide was censored on Amazon in February 2020.

“Little did we realize that this was just a very early example of what was to become a large movement over the next two years – a global movement involving collusion between government, corporatized legacy media, social media, big technology, big finance, and nongovernmental organizations – to completely control and shape all information and thought concerning the public health response to the novel coronavirus.”

Saving lives had, in effect, become a crime.

With all we now know about the catastrophic COVID response, the low efficacy of shots and boosters, and the horrific treatment of the vaccine-injured (like those featured in Jennifer Sharp’s must-see film Anecdotal), Americans still can’t get unencumbered access to cheap, safe, and effective repurposed drugs to treat COVID early. Drugs which, if you believe Dr. Kory (and I do), could’ve saved countless patients, like Dave, from “needless death.”

“Something very dark is happening,” as Dr. Malone put it.

Leaders need to get to the bottom of this whole COVID mess, hold people accountable, and bring justice to the very real flesh-and-blood people who’ve suffered and died horrific deaths.

you didn’t read the entire post - it’s free if you test positive for covid (just as monoclonals, which are even more costly, were free).

re: no long term studies = just like monoclonals, pax is one and done so the risk of side effects are minimal compared to the heavy duty hospital-use-only stuff they’ll pump into you once you’re severely ill and hospitalized.

But what about ivermectin? there are many side effects including Hematologic, hepatic, CV, and a condition that also can be caused by NSAIDS “Toxic epidermal necrolysis” (TEN) is a rare skin condition that causes you to lose your outer layer of skin. It may look like a second-degree burn. You may lose 30% of your skin or more (NSAID TENS could be what was described in the OP):

wow. you were early. i bought my first batch of the same stuff in spring 2021 (thank you Ann Barnhardt). little did i know i’d be using it by Christmas, when the triage nurse on the phone basically said schedule a test (none to be found anywhere) and stay home and just wait until you can’t breathe. if that happens, then go to the emergency room.

no wonder so many died from medical malpractice.

For those that have suffered the “dropped dead suddenly” experience which was witnessed by their loved ones, the harm that has been caused by the vaccines is very real. Their family members KNOW what caused the deaths, and their stories have been dismissed for too long.

The media and so many others believed every false story of fake emergency room doctors for over two friggin’ years as they posted story after false story of being over-worked as patients and family members dying in their arms. All fake. The least they can do is at least give a listen to the people who have verified deaths in their family as they tell their TRUE story of that loved one dying from the fake vaccine.

What got me was the line about the ‘robotic nurse”. How could the author of the piece exactly know how the “so called nurse” have responded? Nurses advocate for their patients in general but they can’t generate orders and treatments on their own.

The story comes across as embellished which is a shame since it puts even the basic story in doubt. In the main, Hospitals are not Nazi “delousing” showers that end with the lingering scent of almonds!

Wow! Those people who have been taking Ivermectin for decades really missed all those side-effects! Heck, I’ve been taking it for two years, and I missed those as well. As a matter of fact, your link goes to a “page not found” error. Try again!

Your post is bull-crap on top of bull-crap. Ivermectin has been known to be one of the safest drugs on the market. Many studies have been done over the decades proving that it is safe. With all the people taking it, you would think there would be more evidence of those “loss of outer skin” and other side-effect instances that you cite.

The evidence of the harm caused by the vaccine is coming out so fast that even the CDC is starting to admit some of the heart problems it has caused. They are also starting to admit that it doesn’t prevent Covid19, but instead increases your chances of infection due to a lowered immune system.

Open your eyes and see what is around you!

Thanks for the link! One source I previously ordered from seems to have stopped supplying these “controversial” meds. I think the state was too hot on their case. Boy, was I happy to have them on hand when I came down with Covid. I recently ordered some from another source so I could have some on hand in case the new crud in China comes here, but I had to pay a fortune for the online medical consult and for the Ivermectin. It’s good to have a more reasonably priced source in case I or someone else needs some in the future.

It’s true what you say.

There has been a dramatic cheapening of life since abortion became acceptable to many.

I hope the recent SC ruling on Roe V Wade has raised our standing some in God’s eyes....

"Dang, sounds bad. I got Covid a year ago, had two days of fever / didn’t get out of bed. Fever broke on the 2nd night (2 doses of paste), I was puny for about a week after that, but no fever. Was probably 95% after a week."

Almost exactly the same here, except that I was sick for two days, tired for two days (love sleeping late every morning), and back to work on Friday. That was with the Delta variant.

Well, I did get the antibody treatment within 6 hours of testing positive at home. I was in FL, and it was before the Dems blocked the antibody treatment, so I got lucky with that.

And I'm 64, and my comorbs have comorbs.

I ordered hydroxychloroquine & ivermectin from India in November 2021 and got it 3 weeks later, just in time for my second CoVID bout in January 2022, lol.
