Why are people concerned with the COVID-19 vaccines

When I first thought of writing this article, I thought it was going to be an easy article to write.  But as soon as I started to research hard facts, I started to realize that I would have better odds of winning a million dollars using Grande Vegas casino bonuses than I would be to get an accurate picture of what exactly is going on in the United States, and why there are problems.

The standards I am comparing things to is Israel.  For the record, I have gotten the Pfizer COVID vaccine, and so has everybody in my immediate family.

Why am I using Israel as a point of comparison?

I am comparing things to Israel, because Israel has essentially been the Beta Testers for the Pfizer vaccine at a community wide level.

Currently in Israel, although the cases are going up, the number of people who are dying from COVID is almost non-existent: 2-3 per day.  Those figures are less than the number of people who die from auto accidents per day.

Israel has also determined that a majority of their cases have originated from the Airport, its main border.  So a majority of restrictions are focused on the airport and the people traveling to and from Israel.

What statistics is Israel recording and how easy is it for a regular citizen to see these statistics?

The Worldometer website has statistics for every country.  Israel’s is located at https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/country/israel/.

Worldometer is getting their information from Israel’s Health Ministry website.  Although this website is in Hebrew, if you load it from Chrome, you can easily understand the data in any language, including English.

There are few pieces of data that I find useful.  Those include the number of critical patients and the number of patients on respirators, because those are the patients that have the potential to be future deaths.  As of today, July 18, 2021, Israel has 18 critical patients and 16 that are on respirators.

The “Percentage of vaccinated by age groups” is the most useful information (second dose).  For the 50 and above age group, the group that was most at risk of dying of COVID, 85% have been vaccinated.  For the other adults, 30 and above, it is also around 80%.  For the 20-29 group, the first dose is almost around 80%.

The 10-19 year olds are the lowest group with the first dose being at 40%.

What are the equivalent doses in the United States?

The data is coming from the website: https://usafacts.org/visualizations/covid-vaccine-tracker-states/

Overall, 56% of the population has been vaccinated with one dose, and 49% has been fully vaccinated.  But this cannot include children and pregnant women.

Percentage vaccinated with one dose:

  • 75 and older, 82.5%
  • 65-74, 85%
  • 50-64, 70%
  • 40-49, 60%
  • 25-39, 50%
  • 18-24, 46%

Here are the statistics by race or ethnic group:

  • Multiple, Other, or “not answering”, 95%
  • White, 32%
  • Pacific Islander, 56%
  • Hispanic / Latino, 28%
  • Black, 24%
  • Asian, 35%
  • American Indian, 48%

Do you know what percentage of the US population identified themselves as multi-racial in 2010?  2.9%.  But yet they account for 95% of the vaccinations.

So over the total population the figures are at a minimum of 50%, with most being at 70% or above, but yet when we look at the statistics by demographics, the numbers are all in the 25% – 35% range, except for Hawaii (Pacific Islanders).

Do you know what I see when I look at these statistics?  That approximately ⅔ of Americans are “giving the finger” to identity politics.  They have made the conscious decision that when anybody asks about race or ethnicity, they are going to answer “Multiple/other”.

If statistics by ethnicity in 2021 are essentially garbage, why does the media and the government keep pointing to them?

Politics.  Racism sells (or at this point the government still believes that racism sells).  The truth is that ⅔ of Americans are turning their backs on racial identities, and it is not just coming from one group.  But the ⅓ that still identifies with racial terms are the loudest.  So it looks as if everybody is into racial identities, but the truth is that the majority of the US population no longer wants to be identified by the government in racial terms.

Now that we realize that any talk about vaccination rates (or anything) in terms of racials numbers is complete garbage, let’s look at some reasons why people are refusing vaccines.

Amish and religion

The Amish community is taking the “faith in God” and Herd Immunity path to protecting their community from COVID?  As soon as they saw other groups not following COVID restrictions, starting in the summer of 2020, they went back to doing their community services.  As a result COVID spread quickly through their community, but as a result, they have obtained a natural herd immunity.

But since the Amish community has hidden their cases and has chosen to treat the sick within the community, nobody truly knows the actual figures.  We can only make educated guesses.

Recovered COVID patients

Many people believe that if a person has recovered from a sickness they are immune to that sickness (or at least they will not die from that sickness).  A lot of recovered COVID patients are refusing the COVID vaccines, but the US is NOT counting them in the immunity statistics.  Israel does count these people in their immunity statistics.

It is hard to find actual statistics, because the government is not tracking it.  But a lot of people who are getting reactions to the COVID vaccine are recovered COVID patients.  Even after a person recovers from COVID, dead COVID cells still exist in your body.  Something in the COVID vaccine reactives those dead COVID cells and is making these people sick with COVID from the COVID vaccine.

Fauci lied about target vaccination rates needed

The problem with Fauci is that he lied to the American people about the target vaccination rates.  If we look at the statistics for Smallpox, for most of the world, it was 80% vaccination rates.  India was different where they did a 35% + targeted intervention method.

The end result is that Smallpox was eradicated from the world.

Fauci had raised the percentage: from 70% to 75%, and then to 75%, 80%, and 85%.

Fauci lied in the name of protecting the public, so the public no longer trusts Fauci.  So the attitude of a lot of people is, “If Faui lied about this, what else has Fauci lied about that he is not admitting to?”

Fauci changed his recommendations for masks

Fauci, over the course of the pandemic, has changed his recommendations for masks.  First he said they were useless, then he said that people should use one.  Then he said people should use two.  Then he said even COVID vaccinated and COVID recovered patients should use masks.  He has even said that children between 2 and 8 should wear masks all day long while in school and on the bus, which could be as long as 12 hours a day.  On top of that, children are being told to wear masks in very hot weather while exercising.

Fauci says “follow the science” but even back in February 2021, there were cases of people having collapsed lungs due to exercising with masks on.

But yet, we are still reading case after case after case of schools and camps that require kids to wear a mask while exercising.  This is causing a lot of people to wonder why people are making a huge fuss over children and COVID when only 335 have died of COVID worldwide with many of these children having pre existing medical issues.

US Government is discouraging early treatments

The US Government is discouraging early treatments for COVID.  Specifically it is discouraging the Vitamin D, Vitamin C, plus Zinc along with something else that helps zinc to absorb into the cells treament.  It has not just been discouraged.  It has included threatening to take away the medical licenses of doctors who help patients take the early intervention route.

Most of the research in this area involved patients who had already been admitted to the hospital, instead of focusing on not getting them into the hospital in the first place.

This led a lot of people to wonder why the US government was so fixed on vaccines as opposed to early treatment?   What is the government hiding?  And when people learned that Fauci helped the Wuhan lab obtain US government funding, people really stopped trusting Fauci and the US Government.

Black community and syphilis

I really hate talking about race, but sometimes in order to talk about all of the reasons why we are where we are today, we have to talk about race.

“Tuskegee Study of Untreated Syphilis in the Negro Male” (now referred to as the “USPHS Syphilis Study at Tuskegee”). The study initially involved 600 Black men – 399 with syphilis, 201 who did not have the disease. Participants’ informed consent was not collected. Researchers told the men they were being treated for “bad blood,” a local term used to describe several ailments, including syphilis, anemia, and fatigue. In exchange for taking part in the study, the men received free medical exams, free meals, and burial insurance.”

“By 1943, penicillin was the treatment of choice for syphilis and becoming widely available, but the participants in the study were not offered treatment.”

The study was still going on in 1972, after the Civil Rights Act was passed.  Although the victims of this study were given reparations, it is still disgusting and vile that even after the Civil Rights Act was passed, this study was still going on.

I do not know what percentage of the black community is avoiding the Vaccines due to this.  I am just stating the reasons that I have read about.

No health insurance

This excuse I do not understand.  I would have thought that the government would just make central location vaccination centers and just vaccinate anybody who walks in the door.  If this is not currently happening, why is it not happening?

Not understanding English

This is another excuse I do not understand.  Doesn’t every city know the demographics of their community and how to inform their community of what is going on?  $99 for 400 minutes for 365 days of pre-paid phone service.  $10 for a flop phone.  $60.00 for a simple smartphone.  If you use public Wi-fi (public library, etc.), wi-fi is free.    Provide an emergency alert that is available to the public.  Message received.

Summary

There is no one reason why people are rejecting the COVID vaccine.  Some are 100% valid reasons (COVID recovered patients do not need vaccines).  Some are understandable (people have lost trust in the FDA, CDC, NIH, etc.).  Some are politics (no health insurance and not understanding English).  Some are just plain crazy. (COVID is a fraud, because it is just 5G).

But I think it boils down to the government lying to the American people, because the government believes that they know better.  So when the government is now telling social media to censor anything that the government does not preapprove relating to COVID vaccines, it is not helping with the lost of trust issue with the FDA, NIH, and CDC.

Combat Allergies with Smart Supplement Choices

Combat Allergies with Smart Supplement Choices

Millions of people grapple with seasonal or year-round allergies, often turning to supplements to complement conventional treatments. With a growing range of products targeting those whose noses can never rest, hoping to finally get some relief, they often come away disappointed after stumbling upon ineffective formulations. Professional-grade supplements, though—those designed for immune system support and reducing histamine responses—stand out in terms of effectiveness. The trick is to understand how to choose the right bottle.

How Supplements Can Help with Allergies

Allergies start to rear their ugly heads whenever the immune system overreacts to harmless substances, releasing histamines in the process that trigger symptoms like sneezing, itching, or nasal congestion. While antihistamines are the easiest and most approachable way of dealing with this problem, supplements also propose a viable, holistic solution.

  • Immune Health Support: Ingredients like quercetin and bromelain help stabilize mast cells, reducing histamine release.
  • Histamine Balance: Vitamin C and specific herbal extracts can naturally reduce histamine activity.
  • Improves Respiratory Wellness: If you pick a supplement with anti-inflammatory properties, using it can ease airway irritation and congestion.

Key Ingredients to Look For

For those who frequently suffer from allergies, reading the above list alone probably gave you some relief. Don’t worry, we’ve got actual tips here, too, alongside a list of ingredients that can help you ease some of the worst symptoms:

  • Quercetin: A flavonoid that calms histamine release and offers antioxidant support.
  • Nettle Leaf: Historically used for allergy relief, it helps regulate immune responses.
  • Vitamin C: The generic and often underestimated vitamin C also acts as a natural antihistamine.
  • Probiotics: These promote gut health, which plays a vital role in overall immune function. Certainly not a must, but a nice-to-have any day!
  • Bromelain: Extracted from pineapple, it has anti-inflammatory effects that are beneficial for sinus health.

All combined, these ingredients act synergistically to address the root causes of heavy allergic reactions rather than merely masking symptoms.

Quality Above All: Why Source Matters

Fanciful claims and promises of extraordinary results are one thing. Actually delivering on said promises is another. The unfortunate truth about the current supplement market is that separating fairytale items from the quality players is often more difficult than it should be. After all, it’s your health we’re talking about; there should be no room for smoke and mirrors here.

Regardless, selecting high-quality products from trusted providers ensures potency and safety. Individuals seeking relief should only turn to professional-grade products. Otherwise, you’re likely throwing money down the drain.

Professional-grade products are often:

  • Clinically Tested: Backed by research that confirms their efficacy.
  • Hypoallergenic: Free from common allergens, like gluten, soy, and dairy, to not exacerbate your issues further
  • Free of Contaminants: Manufactured with rigorous quality controls.

With how debilitating and infuriating dealing with your allergic reactions can get, buying cheap simply doesn’t make that much sense. Quality allergy products that are able to actually grant you some much-needed relief are worth all the money in the world, and then some.

The Takeaway

Quality and the right formulation are paramount when it comes to allergies. Opting for professional-grade products tailored to allergy relief can make managing symptoms more effective. If there’s a lesson to be learned here, it’s to take good care of yourself, and prioritize your health any way you can!

Discover Youthful Skin: Your Guide to Top Aesthetic Treatments

Published

Top Aesthetic Treatments

Welcome to our clinic, one of the best aesthetic treatment providers. Our team of experts offers special procedures to help our clients with younger-looking skin. If you want to get smooth skin or simply refresh your skin, then we are here for you. Nowadays, there is a surge in the demand for aesthetic treatments, and people are loving them. The prime reason for this surge is they provide ways to boost natural beauty without surgery. Here in this article, we will have a discussion related to this topic. We will discuss how treatments like dermal fillers and Botox work. We will also discuss the benefits these treatments offer.

Exploring Botox and Dermal Fillers

First, let’s meet your Botox doctor. Botox is a special treatment that helps relax muscles on the face that cause wrinkles. It’s like giving your face a mini-vacation so it looks smoother and fresher. The doctor who gives you Botox is very skilled and makes sure the treatment is safe and works well.

Next, we’ll talk about dermal fillers. These are like magic gels that doctors inject under the skin to fill out areas that may have lost volume, like cheeks or lips. Dermal fillers can help you look more youthful by bringing back the fullness to your face that sometimes goes away as we get older. The clinic chooses only the best fillers to ensure everyone gets a natural and beautiful result.

Both Botox and dermal fillers are quick ways to beautify your face without any surgery. Plus, the results can make you feel more confident about your appearance. So, if you’re looking to reduce wrinkles or give your face a little extra plumpness, these treatments could be perfect for you!

Advanced Skin Treatments

Let’s start with Sculptra injections. Sculptra is a special kind of filler, but it works differently from the ones we talked about before. Instead of just filling in spaces, Sculptra helps your skin make more of its own collagen over time. Collagen is what keeps our skin firm and youthful. These injections slowly improve the skin’s appearance, making it look naturally plump and smooth as weeks go by.

Now, let’s explore microneedling. This treatment involves a tool that gently pricks the skin with very tiny needles. These little pricks are so small you can hardly see them, but they do a big job. They help the skin heal itself and grow new, fresh layers. Microneedling treatment is great for reducing scars, wrinkles, and making the skin’s texture better. Plus, it helps your skin soak up any creams or serums you use, making them work better.

Both of these treatments are safe when done by professionals and can significantly improve how your skin looks and feels. If you’re looking for ways to rejuvenate your skin and make it glow, Sculptra and microneedling might be just what you need!

Facial Rejuvenation Techniques

First, let’s talk about the Hydrafacial treatment. This wonderful treatment deeply cleans and hydrates your skin. Imagine giving your face a refreshing drink of water that cleans out pores and leaves you glowing. The Hydrafacial is especially great because it suits all skin types and targets issues like dryness, acne, and wrinkles.

Next, we look at photofacial treatments. These use a special kind of light to brighten your skin and reduce spots or redness. It’s like shining a gentle, healing light that helps clear and soothe your skin. Photofacials are fantastic for tackling sun damage or uneven skin tones, making your skin look clearer and more even.

Both Hydrafacial and photofacial treatments are quick and gentle, making them perfect for a quick skin refresh without downtime. Whether you need deep hydration or want to even out your skin tone, these treatments offer great solutions. They are done by skilled professionals who make sure you get the best care and leave the clinic feeling happier about your skin.

Exfoliation and Skin Clarity

Let’s start with microdermabrasion, a super helpful treatment for refreshing your skin. Imagine using a magic eraser that gently scrubs away old skin cells to reveal fresh, new skin underneath. Microdermabrasion is just like that; it uses a special tool that carefully removes the top layer of skin, helping to reduce scars, dullness, and fine lines. It’s like giving your face a new beginning!

This treatment is perfect for those who want to brighten their complexion and achieve a smooth texture. It’s gentle enough for most people and works wonders by making your skin look fresh and vibrant. Whether you have some scars you’re not fond of or you just want your skin to glow, microdermabrasion can be a great choice.

Overall, both techniques discussed in this section are aimed at improving your skin’s appearance in a gentle yet effective way. If you’re considering a skin refresh, these options might be just what you need to help your skin look its best. Each treatment is carried out by caring professionals who ensure you feel comfortable and get great results.

Choosing the Right Treatment for You

When thinking about aesthetic treatments, it’s important to talk to skincare experts. These professionals can guide you based on what your skin needs and what you hope to achieve. For instance, if you want to reduce wrinkles, treatments like Botox might be suggested. However, if hydration is your goal, something like a Hydrafacial could be the answer.

Before deciding, consider factors like your skin type and any specific skin issues you want to address. Different treatments work best on different kinds of skin, so understanding your own can help a lot. Also, think about how long you want the results to last. Some treatments have effects that are more temporary, while others can last a long time.

Lastly, always make sure you are comfortable with the clinic and the professionals treating you. Feeling confident in their care is key to a good experience. By considering all these points, you can make a well-informed decision that lets you enjoy the best possible results from your chosen treatment. This way, you can look forward to seeing a happier, more confident you in the mirror!

Summing Up

Aesthetic treatments like Botox, dermal fillers, and facials offer wonderful ways to refresh and rejuvenate your skin. Each treatment has its unique benefits, whether it’s reducing wrinkles, hydrating the skin, or improving texture. By choosing the right treatment for your needs, you can achieve a natural, glowing look that boosts your confidence. Remember, it’s always important to consult with experienced professionals to ensure you receive the best care. So, take the step towards a more vibrant appearance, and enjoy the feeling of looking your best every day!

The Hidden Dangers of Dehydration: How It Affects Your Body

Published

The Hidden Dangers of Dehydration

Dehydration is more than just feeling thirsty; it can significantly impact your body and its functions. Staying hydrated often takes a backseat with summer heat waves, strenuous activities, and busy schedules. Understanding how dehydration affects your body and discovering effective solutions, such as IV therapy, can make a world of difference in maintaining your health and well-being.

The Effects of Dehydration on the Body

Water is essential for nearly every function your body performs. When you don’t consume enough fluids, your body begins to experience a range of adverse effects. Here are some of the key ways dehydration impacts your body:

Reduced Cognitive Function: Dehydration can impair brain function, affecting concentration, memory, and mood. Even mild dehydration can cause headaches, dizziness, and fatigue, making it hard to focus on tasks.

Physical Performance: Dehydration can significantly hinder physical performance for athletes or those who engage in regular exercise. When the body lacks sufficient water, muscle cramps, decreased endurance, and a higher risk of heat-related illnesses are expected.

Digestive Issues: Water aids in digestion by helping break down food and absorb nutrients. Dehydration can cause constipation and other digestive discomforts, as your body struggles to process food without adequate hydration.

Kidney Function: Your kidneys rely on water to filter waste from the blood and produce urine. Chronic dehydration can lead to kidney stones and even kidney damage over time.

Skin Health: Your skin is the largest organ and needs water to maintain its elasticity and suppleness. Dehydrated skin can appear dry, flaky, and more prone to wrinkles.

Cardiovascular Health: Dehydration reduces blood volume, making it harder for your heart to pump blood efficiently. This can lead to increased heart rate and low blood pressure, potentially causing serious complications.

Combatting Dehydration with IV Therapy

While drinking water is the most straightforward way to stay hydrated, there are times when our bodies need a more immediate solution. IV therapy offers a fast and efficient method to rehydrate and replenish essential nutrients.

What is IV Therapy?

Intravenous (IV) therapy directly infuses fluids, vitamins, and minerals into the bloodstream. This method allows for 100% absorption of these vital substances, bypassing the digestive system and providing immediate hydration and relief.

Benefits of IV Therapy for Dehydration

Rapid Rehydration

IV therapy from IV Minnesota delivers fluids directly into the bloodstream, allowing for quick and efficient rehydration. This is especially beneficial for severely dehydrated individuals or those unable to consume enough fluids orally.

Electrolyte Balance

Dehydration often leads to an imbalance of electrolytes like sodium, potassium, and magnesium, which are crucial for various bodily functions. IV therapy can include these electrolytes, helping restore balance and prevent complications such as muscle cramps and irregular heartbeats.

Enhanced Nutrient Absorption

IV therapy can include vitamins and minerals that boost your immune system, improve energy levels, and support overall health. This is particularly useful for individuals with nutrient deficiencies or those recovering from illness.

Improved Recovery

Athletes and fitness enthusiasts often use IV therapy to speed up recovery after intense workouts. Combining fluids and nutrients helps reduce inflammation, muscle soreness, and fatigue, promoting quicker recovery times.

Convenience and Customization

IV therapy sessions are typically quick, lasting 30 to 60 minutes. Treatments can be customized to address specific needs, such as hydration, energy boost, or immune support.

Conclusion

Dehydration can profoundly impact your health, affecting everything from cognitive function to skin health. Recognizing dehydration’s signs and its effects is crucial for maintaining your well-being. While drinking water remains essential, IV therapy is a powerful tool for combating dehydration, providing rapid rehydration and other health benefits. Whether you’re recovering from a strenuous workout, an illness, or simply looking to boost your overall health, IV therapy can be an effective and convenient solution. Stay hydrated, stay healthy, and consider the benefits of IV therapy as part of your wellness routine.
