It can only kill you if it gets into your lungs; so if you can kill it before it gets to your lungs, you are safe. Here's what I plan to do: (1) At the first sign of symptoms, gargle several times a day with Betadine Sore Throat Gargle. This is a mouthwash containg povidine iodine; it is reported to kill the virus in your throat. (2) Nebulise with Hydrogen Peroxide (this kills the virus in your lungs & sinus); ordinary H2O2 will do, but you can also use the food-grade kind. I dilute it 1:3 with rainwater - Peter M.(1) Another video (7 min) from Professor Sucharit BhakdiThis one is 7 min.Professor Sucharit Bhakdi, a Thai migrant to Germany, warns about risks of the mRNA vaccines (Pfizer & Moderna).

This stance encompasses vaccines in the same way as therapeutics.We note that a wide range of side effects is being reported following vaccination of previously healthy younger individuals with the gene-based COVID-19 vaccines. Moreover, there have been numerous media reports from around the world of care homes being struck by COVID-19 within days of vaccination of residents. While we recognise that these occurrences might, every one of them, have been unfortunate coincidences, we are concerned that there has been and there continues to be inadequate scrutiny of the possible causes of illness or death under these circumstances, and especially so in the absence of post-mortemsexaminations.In particular, we question whether cardinal issues regarding the safety of the vaccines were adequately addressed prior to their approval by the European Medicines Agency (EMA).As a matter of great urgency, we herewith request that the EMA provide us with responses to the following issues:1. Following intramuscular injection, it must be expected that the gene-based vaccines will reach the bloodstream and disseminate throughout the body [1]. We request evidence that this possibility was excluded in pre-clinical animal models with all three vaccines prior to their approval for use in humans by the EMA.2. If such evidence is not available, it must be expected that the vaccines will remain entrapped in the circulation and be taken up by endothelial cells. There is reason to assume that this will happen particularly at sites of slow blood flow, i.e. in small vessels and capillaries [2]. We request evidence that this probability was excluded in pre-clinical animal models with all three vaccines prior to their approval for use in humans by the EMA.3. If such evidence is not available, it must be expected that during expression of the vaccines’ nucleic acids, peptides derived from the spike protein will be presented via the MHC I — pathway at the luminal surface of the cells. Many healthy individuals have CD8-lymphocytes that recognize such peptides, which may be due to prior COVID infection, but also to cross-reactions with other types of Coronavirus [3; 4] [5]. We must assume that these lymphocytes will mount an attack on the respective cells. We request evidence that this probability was excluded in pre-clinical animal models with all three vaccines prior to their approval for use in humans by the EMA.4. If such evidence is not available, it must be expected that endothelial damage with subsequent triggering of blood coagulation via platelet activation will ensue at countless sites throughout the body. We request evidence that this probability was excluded in pre-clinical animal models with all three vaccines prior to their approval for use in humans by the EMA.5. If such evidence is not available, it must be expected that this will lead to a drop in platelet counts, appearance of D-dimers in the blood, and to myriad ischaemic lesions throughout the body including in the brain, spinal cord and heart. Bleeding disorders might occur in the wake of this novel type of DIC-syndrome including, amongst other possibilities, profuse bleedings and haemorrhagic stroke. We request evidence that all these possibilities were excluded in pre-clinical animal models with all three vaccines prior to their approval for use in humans by the EMA.6. The SARS-CoV-2 spike protein binds to the ACE2 receptor on platelets, which results in their activation [6]. Thrombocytopenia has been reported in severe cases of SARS-CoV-2 infection [7]. Thrombocytopenia has also been reported in vaccinated individuals [8]. We request evidence that the potential danger of platelet activation that would also lead to disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC) was excluded with all three vaccines prior to their approval for use in humans by the EMA.7. The sweeping across the globe of SARS-CoV-2 created a pandemic of illness associated with many deaths. However, by the time of consideration for approval of the vaccines, the health systems of most countries were no longer under imminent threat of being overwhelmed because a growing proportion of the world had already been infected and the worst of the pandemic had already abated. Consequently, we demand conclusive evidence that an actual emergency existed at the time of the EMA granting Conditional Marketing Authorisation to the manufacturers of all three vaccines, to justify their approval for use in humans by the EMA, purportedly because of such an emergency.Should all such evidence not be available, we demand that approval for use of the gene-based vaccines be withdrawn until all the above issues have been properly addressed by the exercise of due diligence by the EMA.There are serious concerns, including but not confined to those outlined above, that the approval of the COVID-19 vaccines by the EMA was premature and reckless, and that the administration of the vaccines constituted and still does constitute "human experimentation", which was and still is in violation of the Nuremberg Code.In view of the urgency of the situation, we request that you reply to this email within seven days and address all our concerns substantively. Should you choose not to comply with this reasonable request, we will make this letter public.This email is copied to:Charles Michel, President of the Council of EuropeUrsula von der Leyen, President of the European Commission.Doctors and scientists can sign the open letter by emailing their name, qualifications, areas of expertise, country and any affiliations they would like to cite, to <mailto:Doctors4CovidEthics@protonmail.com> Doctors4CovidEthics@protonmail.como References {see above link}Yours faithfully,Professsor Sucharit Bhakdi MD, Professor Emeritus of Medical Microbiology and Immunology, Former Chair, Institute of Medical Microbiology and Hygiene, Johannes Gutenberg University of Mainz (Medical Doctor and Scientist) (Germany and Thailand)Dr Marco Chiesa MD FRCPsych, Consultant Psychiatrist and Visiting Professor, University College London (Medical Doctor) (United Kingdom and Italy)Dr C Stephen Frost BSc MBChB Specialist in Diagnostic Radiology, Stockholm, Sweden (Medical Doctor) (United Kingdom and Sweden)Dr Margareta Griesz-Brisson MD PhD, Consultant Neurologist and Neurophysiologist (studied Medicine in Freiburg, Germany, speciality training for Neurology at New York University, Fellowship in Neurophysiology at Mount Sinai Medical Centre, New York City; PhD in Pharmacology with special interest in chronic low level neurotoxicology and effects of environmental factors on brain health), Medical Director, The London Neurology and Pain Clinic (Medical Doctor and Scientist) (Germany and United Kingdom)Professor Martin Haditsch MD PhD, Specialist (Austria) in Hygiene and Microbiology, Specialist (Germany) in Microbiology, Virology, Epidemiology/Infectious Diseases, Specialist (Austria) in Infectious Diseases and Tropical Medicine, Medical Director, TravelMedCenter, Leonding, Austria, Medical Director, Labor Hannover MVZ GmbH (Medical Doctor and Scientist) (Austria and Germany)Professor Stefan Hockertz, Professor of Toxicology and Pharmacologym, European registered Toxicologist, Specialist in Immunology and Immunotoxicology, CEO tpi consult GmbH.

Norwegian medical experts are saying that the, "deadly blood clots were caused by the AstraZeneca COVID vaccine".The Norwegian healthcare workers report; "Our theory that this is a powerful immune response most likely triggered by the vaccine, has been confirmed", says professor and chief physician Pål Andre Holme. Three Norwegian health workers under the age of 50 have been hospitalized. One is dead.Update: Total Health have learned today (22nd Mar 2021) that <https://sciencenorway.no/covid19-ntb-english-vaccines/norway-two-new-patients-dead-from-blood-clots-after-having-received-the-astrazeneca-vaccine/1832883> all three patients have now sadly died. In May 2021 Norway have decided that the Astra Zeneca drug is <https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2021-05-12/norway-permanently-removes-astrazeneca-from-vaccine-program> no longer safe to use. Prime Minister Erna Solberg said "The government has decided that the AstraZeneca vaccine will not be used in Norway, not even voluntarily".Following questions over <https://www.totalhealth.co.uk/blog/pfizer-covid-vaccine-safe-or-not> whether the Pfizer vaccine was safe, and <https://www.bmj.com/content/372/bmj.n627> leaked documents reported by the BMJ showing shortcomings in product quality in early commercial batches, further serious questions relating to the safety of the new 'genetic material' vaccines are being raised.A group of scientists and doctors has today issued an <https://doctors4covidethics.medium.com/urgent-open-letter-from-doctors-and-scientists-to-the-european-medicines-agency-regarding-covid-19-f6e17c311595> open letter calling on the European Medicines Agency (EMA) to answer urgent safety questions regarding COVID-19 vaccines, or withdraw the vaccines’ authorisation."There are serious concerns that the approval of the COVID-19 vaccines by the EMA was premature"The letter describes serious potential consequences of COVID-19 vaccine technology, warning of possible autoimmune reactions, blood clotting abnormalities, stroke and internal bleeding, "including in the brain, spinal cord and heart". The authors request evidence that each medical danger outlined "was excluded in pre-clinical animal models with all three vaccines prior to their approval for use in humans by the EMA.""Should all such evidence not be available", the authors write, "we demand that approval for use of the gene-based vaccines be withdrawn until all the above issues have been properly addressed by the exercise of due diligence by the EMA."The letter is addressed to Emer Cooke, Executive Director of the EMA, and was sent on Monday 1 March 2021. The letter was copied to the President of the Council of Europe and the President of the European Commission.It states: "We are supportive in principle of the use of new medical interventions." However, "there are serious concerns, including but not confined to those outlined above, that the approval of the COVID-19 vaccines by the EMA was premature and reckless, and that the administration of the vaccines constituted and still does constitute ‘human experimentation’, which was and still is in violation of the Nuremberg Code."See - video statement by Professor Sucharit Bhakdi, Professor Emeritus of Medical Microbiology and Immunology and Former Chair, Institute of Medical Microbiology and Hygiene:In a public statement the group said…"No sooner did we deliver our letter than the Norwegian Medicines Agency <https://pressat.net/sendy/l/Cwzzxd13zBOkCy8XWDG4Iw/eIoQZ07Gh763JZCbTFVv7DRA/eXKoo892aK892R892j9sALNNFuLw> warned that COVID-19 vaccines may be too risky for use in the frail elderly, the very group these vaccines are designed to protect. We would add that, by virtue of the mechanisms of action of the vaccines, to stimulate the production of spike protein, which has adverse pathophysiological properties, there may also be vulnerable people who are not old and already ill. New data shows that vaccine side effects are <https://pressat.net/sendy/l/Cwzzxd13zBOkCy8XWDG4Iw/UwphntkYT3Jffid763fInTPw/eXKoo892aK892R892j9sALNNFuLw> three times as common in those who have previously been infected with coronavirus, for example. None of the vaccines have undergone clinical testing for more than a few months, which is simply too short for establishing safety and efficacy."Therefore, as a starting point, we believe it is important to enumerate and evaluate all deaths which have occurred within 28 days of vaccination, and to compare the clinical pictures with those who have not been vaccinated."More broadly, with respect to the development of COVID-19 vaccines, the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe has stated in their Resolution 2361, on 27th January 2021, that member states must ensure all COVID-19 vaccines are supported by high quality trials that are sound and conducted in an ethical manner. EMA officials, and other regulatory bodies in EU countries, are bound by these criteria. They should be made aware that they may be violating Resolution 2361 by applying medical products still in phase 3 studies."Under Resolution 2361, member states must also inform citizens that vaccination is NOT mandatory and ensure that no one is politically, socially, or otherwise pressured to become vaccinated. States are further required to ensure that no one is discriminated against for not receiving the vaccine."The letter comes as a <https://petition.parliament.uk/petitions/569957> petition against UK Government plans for vaccine passports passed 270,000 signatures, more than double that required to compel consideration for debate by MPs. The petition will be debated in the UK Parliament on 15th March 2021.Doctors and scientists can sign the open letter by sending their name, qualifications, areas of expertise and country of practice to: Doctors4CovidEthics@protonmail.com.See also the latest report reviewing the evidence for lockdowns form the Health Advisory and Recovery Team HART - COVID-19: <https://www.hartgroup.org/covid-19-evidence/> An overview of the evidenceDr Vernon Coleman is keeping an update of reported adverse events following vaccination:Dr Coleman's report - <https://vernoncoleman.org/articles/how-many-people-are-vaccines-killing> How many people are the vaccines killing?Up to date European Database of Suspected Adverse Drug Reaction Reports - Click on ‘C’ and scroll down to find the suspects - http://www.adrreports.eu/en/search_subst.html#Are people getting the full <https://www.totalhealth.co.uk/blog/are-people-getting-full-facts-covid-vaccine-risks> facts on vaccine risks, and are bioethics being compromised?Myocarditis followed by CoViD-19 vaccines: A cause for concern or a reversible minor effect?The myocarditis (inflammation of the heart muscle) has been reported so far with the mRNA CoViD vaccines (Pfizer and Moderna), however, the MHRA’s adverse event report lists many cases of myocarditis, suggesting a strong signal for both AstraZeneca (viral vector) and Pfizer (mRNA) CoViD vaccines. The MHRA adverse event report including data up until 2nd June 2021 listed 31 cases of myocarditis (1 fatal) with AstraZeneca and 34 cases with Pfizer. Moreover, there were 55 cases of pericarditis (inflammation of the membrane around the heart) with AstraZeneca and 26 cases (1 fatal) with Pfizer. In addition, there were 330 myocardial infarctions (55 fatal) with AstraZeneca and 123 with Pfizer (24 fatal).High levels of myocarditis reported via VAERSUpdate - latest report 29th June 2021 - <https://lockdownsceptics.org/raising-the-alarm-on-myocarditis-after-covid-vaccination/> Raising the Alarm on Myocarditis After Covid VaccinationThe report states, "There are now 1160 reports of myocarditis and pericarditis after Covid vaccination in the US Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS). The total could be significantly higher due to latency in reports being processed. Myocarditis is a serious condition associated acutely with fatal arrhythmias, and chronically, because myocytes are irreplaceable, with heart failure and significant associated mortality.
