Government on Hyper-speed

Congress and the President had clearly been working overtime addressing critical social and racial justice issues while doing what was necessary to keep the economy afloat, including massive historical stimulus bailout packages. As the economy gains steam, members jockey for pre-election advantages. Swing States, strategies, and dickering escalate into the wee hours, echoing “take no prisoners” checkerboard mantras for votes. At the same time, the “biggest” players and megacorporation strategists take advantage where possible to make millions by pitting fundamental and progressive science positions against each other and by flipping fear vantage points against common sense. These “brokers” continue realizing huge monetary gains and tumbleweed successes all the way to the November 3rd election.

Reclaiming the High Road

Answering queries from elementary children who asked a lot of questions about race, protests, and COVID-19, Nicole Ruiz, a teacher in California, described the situation as “deep, hard, and heavy.” 20 | hippocratesinst.org | Immunity and well-being Parents themselves instinctively seek to buffer their children from facing these harsh issues without straying from the solid explanations and places families must land to remain in integrity. It is here where the Hippocrates Health Institute doubles-down – believing truth is a child’s birthright, in spite of topsy-turvy realworld dances. HHI provides a map with a stickiness to navigate sound trajectories of quality food and choices. The best way for parents to fight bigotry first is with a proper dietary foundation that undercuts a “sit and watch” position. Being healthy, spiritual, and actively vibrant is a fundamental right. This is the safest position where internal solidarity strengthens the inner resolve of a family to fight and to “stand up”, keeping its dreams and aliveness vibrant at the deepest levels. It is here where we experience a true molding of an unshakeable standard and baseline to share with our children. Here, they become true difference makers and see the world in a healthy way no matter how they endure vicious tugs and pulls and changes from everyday life. Facing the challenges and the unpredictable wave surges along the trajectory of social balance and hope, HHI remains a courageous ally and reliable compass for a bright future.

Moving forward, parents are tested time and again on how to take the best stands possible while facing taxing situations. For example, the New Albany, Ohio school district has five schools with 4,800 students. In school, it plans to test each student and to track their location to within a few feet wearing an electronic beacon. The technology logs which classroom students and teachers are in throughout the day, hoping the technology will prevent/minimize COVID-19 outbreaks. Too wired for comfort many confess. 1

Virus Roulette

In the last “Healing Our World”, an article entitled “A ‘Renegade Virus’” traced the origins of the virus to the Wuhan Province

right in front of one’s face. Actually, a more controversial backlash position is that there is a risk that poor filtration of a mask may result in an increased risk of infection from our own breathing. Professor Robert Dingwall states that the “rates of all infection outcomes were highest in the cloth mask arm”. 3

A well-researched article by J.B. Handley with the Children’s Health Defense challenges and dissects multiple issues pertinent and foundational to what we have seen occur. 4

At the top is a huge controversial point stating that there is “Absolutely no evidence’ that COVID-19 is airborne’” as the Vancouver news reports. 5 Dr. Reka Gustafson, B.C.’s deputy provincial health officer, stated “We are very confident that the majority of transmission of this virus is through the droplet and contact route… The overwhelming majority of (COVID-19) transmissions occur through close, prolonged contact and that is not the pattern of transmission we see through airborne diseases.”

Further, it states that science shows there is no spread of COVID-19 in a community - shopping, restaurants, barbers, etc. Professor Hendrick Streeck, University of Bonn, elaborates: “There is no significant risk of catching the disease when you go shopping. Severe outbreaks of the infection were always a result of people

in China through a BSL-4 laboratory. The escalation of accusations and the juxtapositioning of the truth continued as the virus resembles an entanglement of characters as in Charlotte’s Web. The lattice work of “truth sorting” gaslights each of us as we attempt to choose the safest passage through each web.

Amongst the biggest issues, one galvanized twister is the requirements of masks. In the U.S. alone, multi-millions of dollars have made top companies and investors exceptionally wealthy. In grokking this point, the largest viruses only can be seen through a microscope-reinforcing the truth that the size of a single virus is at a 20400-nanometer level or 0.00080314961 of inches. 2 The common N95 mask only protects at a 3mm or 0.11811 level of intrusion - insufficient to stop a virus. The conclusion is that as PPE (personal protective equipment), the masks we are all subject to wearing in public and the workplace are nearly 100% ineffective, possibly stopping a huge glob of sputum

being closer together over a longer period of time…” . In enclosed living situations, such as nursing homes or living with a person suffering health issues, it is prudent to wear a mask.

Some points elaborated here are in more depth in the published article. It is estimated that the overall rate of infection is much lower than 0.3% 6 and the CDC is estimating that 35% of the people infected never display symptoms.

In Italy, having a significant “elder population”, the inflated figures are skewed and include deaths of its oldest population who never had the virus but were counted. Further, people infected with COVID-19 who are asymptomatic are very unlikely to be able to spread the Immunity and well-being | hippocratesinst.org | 21

infection to others. Another claim is that the virus does not spread outdoors; there is no science to support the “six-foot barrier distance” and it is questionable as to where this notion came from; no data shows that a lock down as experienced in many countries has an impact on the disease. There is a predictive model for the viral arc of COVID-19 called Farr’s Law, showing that epidemics rise and fall in roughly a bell-shaped curve, statistically predictable yet still debated. Another insight is that the phased re-openings are “utter nonsense” with no scientific support - yet many will take credit, touting the strategy to be declared a success. There are many more notable insights in J.B. Handley’s article as referenced below.

Hard Ball Courage

In America, fueled by George Floyd’s death, a new generation of young people joined together to express their rage and to pick up the baton of justice. The impact on legislation and local policy awareness has exploded, carrying the issue to every level of impact and stickiness. The Hippocrates Health Institute and POP Campaign stand in solidarity to make a difference and support changes.
