Top reasons NOT to be afraid of covid

INTRO:

Dr. Stephen Malthouse MD (British Columbia)

Welcome to, Canadian Doctors Speak Out. We’re going to give you the top reasons not to be afraid of Covid.

When we hear the word covid or coronavirus, we now instinctively reach for a mask or look around to see how we can protect ourselves and our families. No place really seems safe, but as Canada medical doctors, we’re going to tell you what the best science now has to say and we think you will be pleasantly surprised.

On the TV we hear cases, cases, cases, which would frighten anyone, but cases are not necessarily symptomatic people. The vast majority have few or really no symptoms of being sick. They just have a positive PCR swab test. Research now shows that the PCR test is practically worthless. Only 3% of patients with a positive test actually have the covid virus. People have died. Yes, that’s true, but using case numbers gives a false picture of what is really going on.

Here is a graph showing the covid cases reported each week in Canada. Even I get frightened looking at this graph. But now let’s put the weekly deaths on the same chart. Where are all the deaths that we would expect to follow the cases curve? Something is really fishy here.

Let’s look at yearly deaths in Canada from 2001. It’s pretty hard to show that we’ve even had a pandemic. The slight increase in 2020 was probably due to an aging population.

But aren’t our hospital intensive care units overloaded with covid patients? If we look at the Ontario Intensive Care Unit data, there are fewer patients in the ICU in 2020 than in each of the previous three years. The CDC’s own data compares covid to the seasonal flu. In children, covid illness is so mild their death rate is statistically zero.

For people under 50, the infection survival rate is greater than 99.98% and for those over 70, it is 94.6%. And that is without any early treatment whatsoever, like vitamin D or vitamin C. So if you’re young, you really don’t have anything to worry about. If you’re older, but we’re going to give some really great ideas on how to protect your health that do not include getting a shot with a vaccine.

ASYMPTOMATIC TRANSFER:

Dr. Patrick Phillips MD (Ontario)

So back in April we knew so little about covid and this led us to take a lot of extra precautions including adopting the idea that healthy people can spread disease. This is known as asymptomatic spread and that’s a very scary thought. Now however, over 10 million cases have been studied and evidence is rapidly emerging both from Wuhan and the University of Florida showing that asymptomatic and pre-symptomatic spread are negligible to non-existent.

This is a game changer. This means that we can take our lives back and go back to the time tested advice I’ve always given my patients when they have a virus. If you’re sick, stay home and the rest of us can be free to live our lives.

T CELL IMMUNITY:

Dr. Caroline Turek MD (Ontario)

We have great news. Do you know that many of us are already immune to SARS COV-2 due to cross-reactive t-cells? A T-sell is just another immune cell that helps our body fight infection. At the beginning of the pandemic, SARS COV-2 was considered a novel Coronavirus meaning that none of us were immune to it and all of us were still at risk for infection. However, immunologists and virologists worldwide have studied and found that 30% to 50% of people already have pre-existing immunity to SARS Cov-2 from pre-existing circulating t-cells. This pre-existing immunity is due to prior exposure from other corona viruses such as the common cold. So the problem with testing for covid immunity is most of the tests are serum antibody tests. But this doesn’t look at our t-cell response and antibody levels decline over time but we still have our t-cells to protect us.

Many, many of us are more protected than we realize from covid from our t-cells. This is exciting news because we are closer to herd immunity than we realize.

KIDS & COVID-19:

Dr. Neda Amani MD (Ontario)

We have heard a lot about how children are covid super spreaders. Terrified, we have shut down our schools, covered our children’s beautiful faces with masks and stopped them from playing with one another.

Many teachers are too scared to even step foot into a classroom, but the science shows that none of this is warranted. If children do get covid-19, they might not even show any symptoms, and if they do they’re usually mild and they’re not the drivers of the pandemic. Epidemiological data shows the disease follows a much milder course in children compared to adults. Since the pandemic began, only four people under the age of 19 have died with covid in all of Canada. That’s four out of eight million children and teenagers.

By comparison, 10 children died of influenza in the 2018 to 2019 flu season. Influenza has killed more children annually than covid-19.

An overwhelming number of peer-reviewed studies now show children, especially those under the age of 10, are not a significant factor in the transmission of covid. Studies in the UK, Australia, Switzerland, France and Norway have shown that there is minimal child-to-child and child-to-adult transmission in schools.

A study in The Lancet also showed that closing schools was never medically warranted. A German study of parents and their children showed that parents are way more likely to infect their children rather than the other way around.

When we look at the large and growing body of scientific evidence, we can put the fear behind us and let our children be children again. They can go to school, play, be with their friends and do the things they love. It’s time we give our children their life and childhood back.

PREVENTION:

Dr. Dorle Kneifel MD (British Columbia)

I am not afraid of this coronavirus and you do not need to be afraid either. We’ve evolved with these respiratory viruses over thousands and thousands of years and we’ve developed a highly intelligent and very sophisticated immune system. We support and strengthen our immune system when we eat nutritious food, when we engage in physical activity, when we spend time in nature and feel supported by life.

Vitamin D is a critical nutrient for our immune system. When we supplement with vitamin C, with zinc, with magnesium, our immune system is primed and ready to go. In spite of sub-optimal diets and widespread vitamin D deficiencies, most people who encounter the coronavirus do not require hospitalizations but are able to manage their symptoms at home.

I myself had covid-19 11 months ago, and I responded to the early viral symptoms the way I always do. I took vitamin D, 60,000 international units each day, until the symptoms were gone. It took two days. The fact that I am here talking to you is proof that our bodies know what to do.

TREATMENTS:

Dr. Bill Code MD (British Columbia)

I have more than 40 years experience practicing medicine here in Canada and at least 30 of those have been as a specialty anesthesiologist with the FRCPC. Anesthesiologists are well accepted as clinical pharmacologist by other physicians because we know the risk-benefit ratio about drugs. In addition, safe and long-experienced use of older drugs can be very useful in combating a new problem such as covid.

With this in mind and reviewing the literature, I treat my patients with early covid19 with quercetin, zinc, vitamin C & vitamin D. If you’re able to get a prescription, hydroxychloroquine and azithromycin. In addition, I have used Ivermectin for postcovid symptoms with some success. If needed, oxygen supplementation with nasal specs, often based on what your personal oximteter, which I recommend, says for you.

In all of the patients that I have treated, this regimen has worked for them and they have not needed hospitalization. I myself had covid 19 in November last year. Taking these agents as I’ve listed was incredibly helpful for me and I recovered within 7 to 10 days. In summary, I would like to have you let go of the fear. It does not serve us.

There are many things that we can do for ourselves, and then we’ve got the hospital as back up.

VARIANTS:

Dr. Stephen Malthouse MD (British Columbia)

Many of us have heard about something that is designed to scare the living daylights out of you. It’s something we’re hearing 24/7 pumped through the television set, and that’s the possibility of dangerous variants.

Now, here’s something that will surprise you. One slight variant was artificially created after a lot of hard work in a mouse study. The so called variants had never been found in humans. This was followed by some papers with mathematical modelling and coding, not real life observation. This was simply guesswork about spread and severity, not real research with human beings.

That is the sole foundation of all you’re hearing about on the TV. Viruses naturally change over time and new strains emerge. Since the virus cannot live alone but depends on human cells to live, it makes evolutionary sense that it will become less dangerous, not more so over time. If it becomes more easily spread, but less likely to make you really sick, and that is a good natural progression towards herd immunity.

The covid virus is no different. Over all the time we have studied viruses, that is what they’ve always done, adapt to humans as humans adapt to them. We can all relax since viruses always become less likely to cause harm as time goes on.

A WAY OUT FOR EVERYONE:

Dr. Stephen Malthouse MD (British Columbia)

When you put it all together, there are so many reasons not to be afraid of covid. When we honestly evaluate the covid evidence and stop being fearful, you can start living life fully, become a joyful member of our family and community again. Hiding inside your home and avoiding people… it’s not necessary.

Humans are social creatures and do not do well in isolation. For one thing, both solitary confinement and fear are harmful to your immune system. Four hugs a day are indeed the minimum. So make sure your nutrition is good and don’t forget to take Vitamin D in the winter time to optimize your immune system. 4000 international units is a good daily amount for Canadian adults, followed by a blood test in about a month to make sure that’s the right amount for you. Vitamin D is safe, inexpensive and has been shown to boost resistance to viral respiratory infections including covid.

And remember, the real virus is fear. It stops a person from thinking clearly. Now is the time to turn off your TV set and learn how to do some reasoning for yourself. It doesn’t take a doctor or even a rocket scientist to figure it out.

Just look out your own front door and see what is really happening. The evidence is clear… you do not need to be afraid of a little covid virus.

The above was transcribed from a video from The Canada Health Alliance. You can find references to everything spoke of on their website at www.CanadaHealthAlliance.org.

Below is a statement from The Canada Health Alliance website: 

Based on medical evidence, we call on all levels of government to immediately stop promoting the following measures:

• The use of an inappropriate and misapplied test i.e. RT-PCR to determine policies
• Mismanagement of hospitals and other medical facilities with unnecessary COVID restrictions
• Lockdowns of businesses
• Closure of churches and other places of worship
• Closure of schools, daycares, gyms and special needs care centres
• Closure of playgrounds, parks, and other recreational facilities
• Inordinate and ubiquitous hand-washing with disinfectants
• Mandated and inappropriate physical distancing
• Mandated and inappropriate mask wearing
• Promotion or requirement of COVID-19 vaccination with inadequately trialed, experimental gene-modifying products
• Mandated and inappropriate social isolation
• Quarantine of asymptomatic people
• Misrepresentation of the COVID situation in the media
• The use of fear and other psychological manipulation to coerce the public into following harmful mitigation measures
• The lack of transparency and accountability of public health agencies
• The failure to promote evidence based preventative and therapeutic treatments

The above measures are not based on any current medical evidence, research, human safety trials or on-going evaluations. Further, these policies are in direct opposition to medical practitioners’ oaths to do no harm.
