Doctor tells Canadian state media that after flu season comes 'stroke season'
The Blaze ^ | 1/21/23 | Joseph McKinnon

Posted on 01/21/2023 10:25:42 PM PST by CFW

A Calgary-based family physician and urgent care doctor appeared on Canadian state media earlier this week to explain the alleged link between influenza, infection, and stroke.

When explaining the linkage, Dr. Raj Bhardwaj of the University of Calgary noted his recent surprise at discovering that there is now reportedly a "stroke season."

What are the details?

Bhardwaj told CBC Calgary News that a stroke is ultimately when "the blood supply to the brain is compromised for some reason. It's basically a plumbing problem in the pipes that supply blood to your brain. And there's two things that could go wrong with pipes, right: they can get blocked or they can burst."

Apparently, stroke season is almost upon us.

I know everyone can recall the warnings from their physician in the past regarding stroke season and what symptoms to watch for each year as you recover from the flu.

I don’t know about strokes occurring significantly after one has flu*, but DURING the illness - yeah. Nearly lost my brother in the 1st instance, and my Dad in the 2nd. (This was years B4 COVID.)

*Inflammation after COVID is definitely a “thing”. One of my wife’s best friends, a mid-40’s age gal, is in the hospital with just such, after a mild case of COVID a few weeks ago. Only it’s not so much her blood vessels that are the main problem so far, it’s nerve inflammation. Kinda like Bell’s Palsy (her initial self-diagnosis) but more extensive.

snippets from the Blaze article:

“One of my colleagues actually mentioned that at work the other day and said, ‘Have you noticed how many strokes we’re seeing? It’s a lot more than usual it feels like,’” said Bhardwaj. “Anecdotally, we’re starting to see that.”

and

CTV News reported in December that one Canadian hospital had, like Bhardwaj’s colleague, observed a “15 per cent increase in the number of stroke patients arriving ... in the first six months of this year.”

and one more:

The New York Times recently reported that data from the “Vaccine Safety Datalink, a federal safety surveillance system, hinted that Americans aged 65 and older might be at increased risk of an ischemic stroke in the 21 days after receiving” the bivalent booster shot.

An order for that to happen they would 1st have to admit that they were wrong in pushing the vaccines and that Will never happen. most people knows most doctors are extremely arrogant and of course never wrong.

One of the side-effects of the vaccines was Bell’s Palsy. That was a listed side-effect.

I was saying just yesterday though that we are blaming the shots for all these sudden deaths. But I am also wondering if this is a late effect from getting Covid itself?

I’ve been having balance problems for roughly two and one-half years.

Never, ever took the forced jab.

I did go through a couple of bouts of Covid-19 but it was also at the same time as other problems (pneumonia for one).

Vitamin C, D3, Zinc and most importantly, prayer from my (few) spirit-filled friends.

I may have had it a 3rd time (I call it 2.5 times) but it was milder that particular time.

Balance problems can be related to ear infections — check your wax buildup levels. I am in your ballpark with mild to moderate bouts of something that was perhaps COVID, perhaps RSV and perhaps lungs responding to severe forest fire smoke we had here in late July and early August of 2021. (also unvaxxed). It has not been a great time but I count on the vitamins and immune system protection to give me a better outcome than the clot shots.

I do try to keep the wax down but I do get it regularly.

Maybe I need one of those fancy water machines on TV.

Thanks

Stroke season.

And Turbo Cancer Season.

And Sudden Cardiac Arrest Season.

The pneumonia was rougher in some ways but the time combined with seasonal allergies really gave me pause. That one concerned me whereas the pneumonia just seemed like a hard-fought battle.

I overdress to a bit of a fault now - double shirts, usually medium to heavy. I’m often almost too warm but I’ll take it. The heat buildup always helped with any flu. Miss my old jacuzzi tub - I’d crank the heat up (via hot water) and just soak for 45-60 minutes - that may not be safe for all people.

Raise my blood temperature to combat colds / flu.

For 30 years I could easily get a sore throat / flu simply by pumping my gas for 2 minutes. It was most often in the immediate aftermath of such. For that reason, I almost always wear a mask in cold weather (outside) to cut down on my exposure. I have found a good purpose for them.
in that method.

I’m still taking the D3, Zinc and Vitamin C but not as regular as I was. I need to get back on it.

Only a tiny fraction of adverse events experienced after having a vaccination are ever reported to the CDC's Vaccine Adverse Events Reporting System (VAERS). In 30+ years of collecting information about adverse events after vaccination, almost all strokes reported to VAERS occurred after the Covid 'vaccine' was administered.

Here's an export from VAERS (below).

† Because some cases have multiple vaccinations and symptoms, a single case can account for multiple entries in this table. This is why the Total Count is greater than 2,957 (the number of cases found), and the Total Percent is greater than 100.

       

Here's the same data for Covid 'vaccines' broken down by age:
