Should You Be Concerned About Germs?

Germs are everywhere. On doorknobs, key fobs, cell phones, in the air, on a plane, bus, and trolley. Most germs you will not die from, but some you can. Two New York Times articles meticulously document that our over reliance on antibiotics has led to drug –resistant bacteria that our current arsenal of antibiotics cannot address.

A lot of overuse has gotten into our food supply. When farmers treat animals with antibiotics and then slaughter them for the food chain, some sink into the food supply. And when citrus producers from Florida to California this year struggled with a super bug that turned their citrus green, their armor was to put antibiotics in the soil to treat these bugs.

Think again when you are eating an orange, tangerine, or grapefruit, it may be laced with antibiotics. I think this is a huge concern for all of us. Germs develop resistance to current antibiotics when threatened with extinction.

New super bugs are now in our hospitals and the major super bug is called Candida Auris. This is a fungus that has spread globally discreetly. Other super bugs in hospitals are called Clostridioides difficile, or C. diff. These are deadly super bugs that kill hospital patients. New York hospitals were one of the first to name facilities struggling with these super bugs.

These super bugs have spread to hospitals across the US, including California.

Just when we need the biotech and pharmaceutical industry to develop new drug resistant antibiotics, a large number of biotech firms are closing down. Pharmaceutical companies gain more profit in developing drugs for chronic diseases. Many have abandoned the development of antibiotics. This is quite alarming.

The Centers for Disease Control released statistics on November 13, 2019 that indicated “every 11 seconds someone in the US gets a resistant infection and someone dies every 15 minutes.” This is quite frightening! We need biotech firms and pharmaceutical companies to work together to fight these super bugs.

In the meantime, wash your hands often and do not touch your mouth or eyes without clean hands. I wish you all a happy and healthy New Year!! From my heart to yours....

Will Doctors Ever Learn

07 May, 2024

This past weekend, the New York Times identified many people who believe their new debilitating symptoms are due to the Covid vaccine. I cannot stress enough, that everything doesn’t work for everyone. Many people can go to a doctor and get natural things done and get better. Other people do better in the current medical system. Yet, it is very wrong for physicians to tell people, they are crazy, or it’s in their head. Just because the US hasn’t documented the symptoms people are experiencing from the RNA Covid shot, doesn’t mean their symptoms don’t exist. Some people are experiencing neurological, cardiovascular, and autoimmune symptoms. Everyone’s bodies are different. Other countries, like Israel, Europe and Hong Kong who have centralized systems have documented people who have myocarditis, tinnitus, severe shingles, bell’s palsy, and some show continued deterioration of the heart cavity. About 13,000 cases exist, out of the 677 million Covid shots received in the U.S. Some scientists are concerned that people’s symptoms are being ignored.
