Movie “The Chronicles of COVID”first offers a concise view of the pandemic, answering a number of questions that leave many scratching their heads, because reality and science don’t seem to match what the press is reporting.
Ivor Cummins is a biochemical engineer with a background in medical device engineering and leads teams in complex problem solving. On his website, TheFatEmperor.com,2 He gives instructions on how to decipher the science to transform your health. He produced “COVID Chronicles” with Donald O’Neill, a documentary filmmaker in the fields of health and human performance.
There have been red flags in the pandemic right from the start. Because the symptoms of COVID-19 overlap with so many other illnesses, the only way to know you have the disease is to get tested.
The polymerase chain reaction (PCR) tests used for COVID-19 use a powerful amplification process that makes them so sensitive that they can detect remnants of the dead virus, Cummins explained. long after infection, Cummins explains. But even further than that, every positive COVID-19 test is considered a “case” – and therein lies a big problem.
A positive test is not the same as a case
Dr Wolfgang Wodarg, an internist and former medical director of the Council of Europe, is among those who have called the COVID-19 pandemic a “testing pandemic” due to PCR testing.3
“It was approved by the WHO, and they said when the test came back positive, we had a case of COVID-19. And this is how they started counting cases,” said Wodarg. “What they count as experimental activity. And the more they test, the more cases they find.”4 When labs overuse the cycle threshold, you get an overestimated number of positive tests, leading to an “epidemic”5,6 – pandemic false positive.
Wodarg said COVID-19 “is an ‘experimental’ pandemic. It is not a viral pandemic,”7 because a PCR test can be positive when it detects a coronavirus that has been around for 20 years.8 In “The Chronicles of COVID,” Cummins talks to John Lee, a former clinical professor of pathology at Hull York Medical School and consultant histopathologist at Rotherham General Hospital who later became director of epidemiology. Rotherham NHS Foundation Cancer Service.
He echoed Wodarg, saying that during a pandemic, every positive test is considered a case, but “these are two completely different things”.9 Normally, if you get a typical cold, for example, you only become a “case” if you have to be hospitalized, but all of this has changed with the pandemic. Lee says:ten
“In coronavirus, we counted every positive test as a positive case. Now this is scientifically and medically wrong. You can test positive for coronavirus and be perfectly healthy. You can test positive for coronavirus and be shedding a minimal amount of virus.
It is wrong to associate positive tests with simple cases, but positive cases spurred government policy and a whole range of restrictive actions were taken. “
On January 13, 2021, “WHO finally questioned the accuracy of PCR tests,” the video notes and released an informational notice clarifying guidance on the interpretation of PCR test results, including including the fact that “weakly positive results should be interpreted carefully.”11 “The reported case rate fell in the United States the next day,” the “COVID Chronicles” pointed out.twelfth
Lockdowns not working
Containment measures can be effective if they are taken when no one has the disease, but once it has spread in your population, they will not work. During the COVID-19 pandemic, containment was done too late and caused more harm than good.
The film highlights the outcomes of COVID-19 globally, including in very disparate regions, like the densely populated Khayelitsha in South Africa. It was initially assumed that COVID-19 would devastate the area. They are locked down along with the rest of South Africa, but due to the dense population density, the lockdown in Khayelitsha is only meant to force people on top of each other.
Because the region has a long history of dealing with diseases like HIV and tuberculosis, officials can easily use data from the region, which quickly reveals who is most at risk. from COVID-19 are elderly, infirm, or have other medical conditions such as Type 2 diabetes. What surprised many people, however, was that Khayelitsha was living during the pandemic just like everywhere else in South Africa.
Furthermore, when the second and third waves occur, the ones in Khayelitsha are much better protected, even as new variations emerge. It was later found that up to 68% of local residents had COVID-19 antibodies.13 As noted in the “Chronicles of COVID”:14
“[A]s Delta has cut across a region of the world and indeed South Africa, it’s here bigger than any previous wave or variations we’ve seen. But in Khayelitsha, community-wide levels of 68% of antibodies proved to be extremely potent and very, very protective, even against the new Delta variant.
So while the UK is completely messed up, here we have an informal settlement in an economically deprived area with a population of half a million people, outnumbering the UK and many more. First World countries… they don’t intend… for COVID to spread throughout the community. But in doing so, they have reached a point where herd immunity is, if you will, achieved. “
Other communities also enjoy high community levels of COVID-19 antibodies, including in India, the Orthodox Jewish community in London, and the Amish community in the United States. healthy people, they typically reach about two-thirds of the population with antibody levels.15
Mask quest not working
Like lockdowns, the mandate to wear masks is another pandemic control measure that is seen as gospel despite the lack of effectiveness and evidence of harm. “The Danmask-19 Trial,” published November 18, 2020, in the Annals of Internal Medicine,16 found that among mask wearers, 1.8% (42 participants) tested positive for SARS-CoV-2, compared with 2.1% (53) among controls.
When they removed those who reported not following the usage recommendations, the results remained the same – 1.8% (40 people), which indicates that compliance did not make a significant difference. Initially, many research journals refused to publish the results, which is called the widespread mask question.17
If the mask works, the film indicates, you should immediately see a significant change in the curve, within 14 days. “If you look at about 10 or 12 countries where they mandate wearing masks, there’s no impact on the curve… anyway, the empirical science of our own eyes is screaming at us: masks. and the clasp doesn’t actually move the needle, maybe a little, but no one wants to know. Now it is an ideology. It’s a religion,” Cummins said.18
Reid Sheftall has also extensively researched the use of masks and found that mask duties do not significantly change the number of illnesses or deaths in the way they would if they were to actually reduce the likelihood of illness. spread. Countries with minimal mask use are no worse off than neighboring countries with mask regulations.19
“That makes sense,” Cummins said, “because 40 years of science has agreed that for influenza viruses, masks and surgical coverings are very ineffective. So it agrees with the science”. However, the media claims masks are effective, based on a “series of papers” that surfaced around June 2020 that say masks can be good. “So a few weeks of reporting overturn several decades of scientific significance,” he added.20
Injection not working
It has now been found that the amount of COVID-19 virus is similar between those who have been vaccinated and those who have not.21 “What kind of vaccine requires three shots, and possibly a fourth, and beyond, within a few months?” Cummins asked. “The answer is a vaccine that doesn’t really work.”22
The media message that the pandemic is now a “pandemic of the unvaccinated” is also misleading, as data from Israel shows a similar number of people have been hospitalized with COVID-19, even if they have received treatment. injection or not.23 Cummins’ note:24
“There are a lot of tricks with data. Hospitalization is difficult because you can’t get the raw data and they are very confusing data. In one case… The US came up with shocking stories that 99% were unvaccinated. However, they figured out how to go back… before a vaccine.
So the lion share was not vaccinated at that time because the vaccine was not here yet. So there’s a lot of trickery – I would say cheating – in the way the data is presented. “
People who received only one mRNA sequence were also referred to as unvaccinated, which further skews the data making it appear that more unvaccinated people are hospitalized. Furthermore, the film notes, “In 2021, Professor Sir Andrew Pollard, director of the Oxford Vaccine Group, stated that, ‘…herd immunity by vaccination is not a possibility as it is. [Delta] can still infect vaccinated people. ‘”25
Is this a Lifestyle Pandemic?
Dr Aseem Malhotra, consultant cardiologist and chair of public health cooperation in the UK, is also featured in the “Chronicles of COVID”, which talks about the underlying factors that make some people vulnerable. than with COVID-19 – specifically, diet-related lifestyle diseases.
This aspect of prevention through a healthy long-term lifestyle, which can save lives in future pandemics, is another tenet overlooked by the dominant narrative. Malhotra explains:26
“I think what we have encountered is a rapid pandemic that, in terms of COVID, has exacerbated and taken advantage of a slow pandemic, which is a pandemic of chronic, lifestyle related diseases. Life has been putting a strain on our health care system. for many, many years and our NHS, certainly even before COVID, was at a breaking point.
But in reality, COVID has broken the back of the NHS, and the main reason behind this is that we have failed, for many years, to tackle the problem of prevention, especially the biggest cause. causes these chronic diseases: poor diet.
Ultra-processed foods, which are at the heart of the problem, are now half the calories consumed in the British diet. That’s about 60% of calories consumed in the United States, and there is a very clear correlation between countries where 50% or more of the population is overweight or obese with 90% of COVID-19 deaths. So poor metabolic health means poor immune health.
But beyond this, we know that the real driver of this problem is structure. These are related to the environment and misinformation is being made public for profit. And the two real culprits behind this, in my view, are the food industry and the pharmaceutical industry.
And the collusion of academics, medical journals, doctors and politicians for financial gain with these industries is at the heart of the problem. This needs to be exposed, and the public needs to understand and realize that the biggest enemy of democracy is the food industry and the pharmaceutical industry.”
If it weren’t for the media, would you know there’s a pandemic?
The film implies that COVID-19 offers an opportunity that many entities have used to further their own agendas, while media has served as a tool for appreciation. science and common sense. It’s important to stay grounded and think critically to avoid falling victim to unnecessary panic and stress. Cummins’ note:27
“An important thing to remember, I think, is that if you turn off the media, no one will know there is an epidemic. Even during the booms in Ireland, in both seasons, if you don’t reach out to the media, you never know.
No one really knows who died – other than someone in a nursing home, someone elderly or with stage 4 cancer – most people don’t know who died. It’s correct? Isn’t that hard to believe, in a major pandemic, as we’ve been told? “
