Must watch video,

Presentation to the German Federal Govt's investigation committee regarding Covid19

https://www.bitchute.com/video/nV1c0N5bS1Xu/

just over an hour long by a medical doctor who has treated in excess of 7000 Covid patients in South Africa without oxygen and never lost a patient.

he neatly describes what is really happening with Covid infections and the bodys response that the layman can understand.

It is a really important message that you need to understand. Please watch.

well it is law now that masks must be worn outside and inside so no debate unless you want to be fined

Apparently Alicia, this ‘law’ does not apply to golfers. There have been more sightings of the Loch Ness monster and Bigfoot than there have been of a golfer wearing a mask.

Keeping a small amount of paella 🥘 in the right hand pocket could help against transmission of the virus 

Thank you for the tip. Personally I keep  a clove of garlic which I find more efective than the mask.

Can you show me and everyone else the data that tells you that masks reduce infection? Somehow I never found any?

One thing that travels faster than a real virus is gossip and ignorance. As an ex-microbiologist I can tell you that masks are a placebo effect. They physically can not restrain any virus inside you, so they do not work. Any hole that is in any mask that you can buy is greater than the size of th...

...e nano droplet carrying a virus. A mask is not sealed to your face in any case so air and billions of viruses and bacteria are escaping all the time. to the tune of 50L per minute of expanding swirling gas in your local supermarket....

Common sense travels at a far smaller pace than gossip and pseudo science newspaper articles. That is why people get angry about masks not because they feel their civil liberties are taken away, that comes later in the order of things.

Thank you for saying the truth, particularly from a professional point of view. I would add that not only masks are useless in this situation, they are also dangerous, making you breathe in your own CO2 which affects your immune system and deprives your brain from receiving the oxygen it needs to function properly.

CO2 should not be a problem as gas diffuses quickly and any increase would just increase your breathing rate or the depth of your breath. That in itself may make people feel  uncomfortable because you are having to breathe harder for the saem activities - if the mask fits. One reason why masks are not worn during exercise where you can freely breathe coronavirus anywhere you want?

Prolonged mask wearing is never advised unless absolutely necessary and there are strict rules about it in professions like paint spraying or working in dusty environments ,like  flour mills. The main problem (out of many) will be increased humidity, changing the environment of the throat which can encourage all kinds of respiratory problems with bacteria, yeasts and viruses. Generally speaking manufacuring processes are changed to make it unecessary for human mask wearing for long periods where possible and the masks used are totally different and expensive.

Of course we never had and do not have now,  constant mask wearing. You can be exempt if you are at home with family or guests that you can contaminate freely and they in turn go to others and do the same.  People do not wear masks properly and you don't have to wear a mask but a 'face covering' - how can that help anything, the rule makers do not see any difference between a mask and a scarf which  makes you wonder what they are trying to achieve?

People here are slowly beginning to realise this is bogus information. Yesterday, I saw two couples getting out of their cars in the middle of the street and stand within 1m of each other chatting whilst they also blocked the road. regardless of how ineffective you think masks are, people will lower any effect. All over town people either did not know the rule had changed (again) or were ignoring it.

Garlic and other bulbs like onions do have agents that are antiviral but I wouldn't use one as airbone protection.

If the doctors who are now getting to grips with what is really killing people after they get a viral infection you will find that there is already one antiviral drug on the market to treat the virus at an early stage and reduce that. It was publicised in the press just before christmas BUT the evidence now suggests that many are dying due to the allergic reaction to the spike protein and here anti-inflammatory drugs seem to be the answer. If that is true then there was no reason for people to have died and will be a bit of a bomb shell, that all these medications are at doctors disposal already. I wait to see how these treatments are accepted or not but it sounds promising. It would really reduce the status of this virus from doomsday bug to influenza and take a lot of politicians with it.

Article in a UK newspaper's opinion article this morning about the mask situation from "The Mask Nerd" an advocate of getting the right mask.

Important to note what he is saying and remember that for a mask to be effective it has to be worn in all situations (24/7) and worn correctly? Otherwise how will you be defended or defend others? Guess that would be the reason for even a 100% effective mask being useless but read this for yourself.

Seriously I get so angry when I see poisonous posts like this! What a ridiculous comment to make when so many people have lost their lives from such a terrible disease 🦠
I have always felt it’s so easy to say this behind a screen rather to someone’s face who has lost a loved one 👊 #Distespectful

Ian, I feel your hurt, but Bryan is a witty and humorous poster and I'm sure she meant no harm to anybody in her posting.

Save your anger for some other posters and the Panama Hat Brigade Oh! and of course some Brexiteers!!!
