Hows your mental health?
Tokyo - A 19-year-old college girl murdered an elderly woman with an axe and a scarf because she "just wanted to kill someone"
If anyone is having these thoughts please seek help... and don't ask me to meet you at the airport or anywhere..
The young woman was arrested on Tuesday, and reportedly told investigators: "I have just wanted to kill someone since childhood. It could have been anybody."

ICU is full of the unvaccinated – my patience with them is wearing thin, a respiratory Dr's view
From the Guardian, November 2021

In response to: Most of the resources we are devoting to Covid in hospital are being spent on people who have not had their jab
In hospital, Covid-19 has largely become a disease of the unvaccinated. The man in his 20s who had always watched what he ate, worked out in the gym, was too healthy to ever catch Covid badly. The 48-year-old who never got round to making the appointment.
The person in their 50s whose friend had side-effects. The woman who wanted to wait for more evidence. The young pregnant lady worried about the effect on her baby.
The 60-year-old, brought to hospital with oxygen saturations of 70% by the ambulance that he initially called for his partner, who had died by the time it arrived; both believed that the drug companies bribed the government to get the vaccine approved.
All severely ill with Covid. All unvaccinated and previously healthy. All completely avoidable.
Of course, there are people who have their vaccinations but still get sick. These people may be elderly or frail, or have underlying health problems. Those with illnesses affecting the immune system, particularly patients who have had chemotherapy for blood cancers, are especially vulnerable. Some unlucky healthy people will also end up on our general wards with Covid after being vaccinated, usually needing a modest amount of oxygen for a few days.
But the story is different on our intensive care unit. Here, the patient population consists of a few vulnerable people with severe underlying health problems and a majority of fit, healthy, younger people unvaccinated by choice. Watching the mix of patients coming in with Covid, it feels to me like hardly anybody has been vaccinated nowadays; of course, this is because the people that have been vaccinated are getting on with their lives at home. If everyone got vaccinated, hospitals would be under much less pressure; this is beyond debate. Your wait for your clinic appointment/operation/diagnostic test/A&E department would be shorter. Your ambulance would arrive sooner. Reports of the pressure on the NHS are not exaggerated, I promise you.
Most of the resources that we are devoting to Covid in hospital are now being spent on the unvaccinated.
Yes, vaccinations are unpleasant. They cause side-effects. They hurt. You may even still catch Covid afterwards. I have many colleagues who have felt awful after vaccination and a few who had to take a day or two off work. However, I have not heard of any who have been hospitalised with Covid afterwards or who have had severe side-effects. The approvals process was incredibly stringent and we now have an unbelievable amount of real-world data that these vaccines work. The science that has been applied here is nothing short of awe-inspiring to me. However, I realise that none of these rational arguments would change the mind of someone who is resolved against having it, although I suppose it may push someone who remains undecided.

Dementia in close-up
Last night was my first real encounter with a person in an Alzheimer meltdown - strictly speaking in the form of LBD, Lewy body dementia, but I'd never heard of that before. A local friend brought her husband over (we live walking distance apart) for me to persuade him she really was his wife and not a dangerous intruder in their house. He's at the stage where he fluctuates between seemingly normal, if a little disconnected, all the way through to angry aggression, and back again. It took 20 minutes or more to convince him to give her back her phone and house keys.
Thing was, and why the blog, she's convinced his worst episodes are shortly after she's given him his sedation meds, twice a day, which are supposed to stop him stressing and fretting constantly. Does anyone here know much about the disease, have you any input? She is on groups and getting support and a few others on her groups have also noticed similar reactions but doctors insist it is not the medication but the nature of the illness. I wondered if anyone here was clued up on the topic.
They've been good friends to me but I had no idea how bad things occasionally are as up to now I've only seen him during his vague-but-friendly stages. Last night tipped once or twice towards scary. So weird that he knew me, and eventually trusted me to be telling the truth, but didn't know his wife of many years. So, another question, and yes we're not supposed to ask questions on blogs but this is more of a conversation - any advice on the best way to react, if (when?) it happens again -
Can't ask on any other social media as this is my only anonymous outlet.

Prestigious medical journal concludes that
There is a well known medical journal called, The Lancet.
Yesterday it published the results of a study of how the Medicare for All Act
would transform healthcare in America.
It concluded that a single payer system like the one Bernie Sanders has been urging, would save the average person about 13% per year ($450 Billion total in US),
and more importantly, would save about 68,000 lives per year.
Here is the summary from that journal article verbatim;
Although health care expenditure per capita is higher in the USA than in any other country, more than 37 million Americans do not have health insurance, and 41 million more have inadequate access to care. Efforts are ongoing to repeal the Affordable Care Act, which would exacerbate health-care inequities. By contrast, a universal system, such as that proposed in the Medicare for All Act, has the potential to transform the availability and efficiency of American health-care services. Taking into account both the costs of coverage expansion and the savings that would be achieved through the Medicare for All Act, we calculate that a single-payer, universal health-care system is likely to lead to a 13% savings in national health-care expenditure, equivalent to more than US$450 billion annually (based on the value of the US$ in 2017). The entire system could be funded with less financial outlay than is incurred by employers and households paying for health-care premiums combined with existing government allocations. This shift to single-payer health care would provide the greatest relief to lower-income households. Furthermore, we estimate that ensuring health-care access for all Americans would save more than 68,000 lives and 1.73 million life-years every year compared with the status quo.
Here is the link to the full journal article. If you click on it, it won't work.

CIGARETTE.......
I hate cigarette smokers. I think you have to be a total idiot to smoke. And I support laws that restrict smoking inside a building where non-smokers have to breathe it. But when you're outside where the ratio of air to fumes is low, you have to be reasonable and let the idiots smoke. Does it make them less of an idiot because they are allowed to smoke? No. But this is CS ( America) where you have the freedom to be an idiot if that's what you choose to do..... .... ....
Stick it up your nose...
Stick it up your nose to prevent a COVID-19 infection.
I read a story that Columbia University researchers have developed a nasal spray that has successfully prevented COVID-19 infections. Interesting concept. It's not a vaccine but a lipopeptide (lipid and peptide combination) that blocks coronavirus from fusing with the cells membrane. The effects for a dose have lasted 24 hours.
Initial tests were successful and it will require human clinical trials, so it's not likely to go public soon, but there's always the chance should it go into production it would be successful in limiting the spread of the virus.

UK Cardiologist notes link between mRNA Vac and heart disease
Yes, Covid was genetically manipulated, with patent applications going back to 1999, by Fauci, DARPA, and the Chinese Communist Bioweapons lab in Wuhan, made to target the human lungs, and boosted by billionaire/ eugenicist Bill Gates, while the inventors of mRNA and PCR science have both soundly condemned how they are being used now, and the powers that be wargamed a bioweapon release and how governments and media should respond in the convocation EVENT 201, held shortly before the outbreak.
All the foregoing all provable facts.
Fauci lied about funding gain of function research at the Communist Chinese bioweapons lab in Wuhan. He's constantly lied about the effectiveness (or lack thereof) of the "vaccines," and in other things... such as his constantly moving goalposts.
These so-called "vaccines" do not provide immunity, permits the virus to mutate within the bodies of the vaxxed, and permits the mutated virus to to spread by them to others.
What little reporting of deaths and adverse events from these Jabs far exceed-- on orders of magnitudes -- the deaths and adverse events caused by all previous vaccines combined over the past 30 years.
Look to who are exempted from these experimental Jab mandates.
And now this:
The recently published “warning” in the journal Circulation by cardiologist Dr. Steven Gundry, known as a pioneer in infant heart transplant surgery, is having reverberations around the cardiology community. Gundry’s analysis was presented at the recent meeting of the American Heart Association.
“We conclude that the mRNA vacs dramatically increase inflammation on the endothelium and T cell infiltration of cardiac muscle and may account for the observations of increased thrombosis, cardiomyopathy, and other vascular events following vaccination.”
