In recent weeks, the World Health Organization has received a lot of attention, most recently when President Trump decided to cut funding from WHO in the middle of the coronavirus pandemic. The president cut funding while claiming that WHO is mismanaging and covering up the full extent of the coronavirus spread.

Recently, Wikileaks has posted about the WHO on social media, sharing confidential documents released more than a decade ago. The documents point to the influence that “Big Pharma” has over the WHO.

The compilation of documents shows the influence of “Big Pharma” on the policymaking decisions of the WHO, the UN body safeguarding public health. These confidential documents were obtained by the drug industry before their public release to WHO member states.”

“Big Pharma” has a similar influence over Congress in D.C, making up the largest lobbying group in Washington. Large pharmaceutical companies have more lobbyists in Washington D.C than D.C has congressmen and senators. Despite the obvious hold on our government and the World Health Organization, this corruption isn’t highlighted in mainstream media.

Even during the coronavirus pandemic, German company Bayer has shown increases in earnings in its first quarter. Despite a rise in earnings, Bayer is using the current economic downturn to avoid paying for glyphosate damages. In a statement released last Monday Bayer says the mediation process has been significantly slowed down due to the coronavirus.

Bayer credits its rise in earnings to those stockpiling drugs due to the pandemic. Despite the rise in earnings, the operating cash flow has decreased from 1 billion euros in the previous year to 189 million due to settlements.

The company will consider a deal only if it is financially reasonable and puts in place a mechanism to resolve potential future claims efficiently. This applies now more than ever,”

Werner Baumann, Cheif Executive

The number of plaintiffs in the U.S blaming glyphosate for cancer has risen 52,500 since its 48,600 in February. Bayer continues to deny claims that Roundup or glyphosate, the active ingredient, causes cancer, citing several independent studies that show it’s safe for human use.

Joel Moskowitz is a University of California, Berkeley, public health researcher. He says we don’t yet understand the risks and we need more study before we continue with 5G infrastructure.

The technology is coming, but contrary to what some people say, there could be health risks

Moskowitz’s says that there isn’t any research on the health effects of 5G, but he rightfully points to a swathe of studies that indicate existing 2G and 3G signals could be harmful.

Meanwhile, we are seeing increases in certain types of head and neck tumors in tumor registries, which may be at least partially attributable to the proliferation of cell phone radiation. These increases are consistent with results from case-control studies of tumor risk in heavy cell phone users.

Moskowitz wants regulators to listen to the 250 doctors and scientists who recently signed a petition for a moratorium on the 5G infrastructure until the health implications are better understood.

The problem with 5G is that it’s not just one thing. Increasing amounts of cancers and other illnesses are caused by a worsening diet, disconnect with nature, vaccines, and other toxic pharmaceuticals, cellular signals, and other EMFs (not to mention Elon Musk’s earth-wide WIFI), GMOs, glyphosate, plastic residues – it’s all an accumulative effect. This allows conspiracy theories to run rampant, diluting reasonable concerns and arguments, while the companies that force this tech upon us absolve themselves by simply pointing their finger at all of the other toxicities that came to be with the same crony capitalism. What’s next? All we can say is vote with your dollars, vote any time you can, eat right, and keep your gut healthy.

The CDC and other sources have shown that COVID-19 can live on surfaces for hours. Data shows that the virus was still detectable on copper for four hours, and cardboard for 24 hours, while it can live on stainless steel and plastic for up to 72 hours. It should be noted that the virus is predominately spread through airborne particles when someone sneezes or coughs.

As far as we know right now, people are much more likely to be infected by close contact with an infected person than by touching a contaminated surface. That said, it’s still important to be conscious of what we’re touching, especially high-touch surfaces”

How long does coronavirus live on different surfaces?

Although there is not a high risk of catching COVID-19 from surfaces like cardboard and plastic packages, or groceries, some recommend decontaminating these surfaces in a specific area before bringing them into your home. You can find out how to make homemade hand sanitizer here.

While looking for honey at your grocery store, chances are you’ll find labels like “100% Pure Honey”, “100% Raw Honey”, or “True Sourced Certified”. Despite these claims and certifications, there’s a good chance that your honey isn’t what you were expecting. Much of the honey on grocery store shelves is imported, even the ones that claim to be produced in the U.S. Often times imported honey is adulterated, by adding sugars, heating it, or filtering it.

“We tested about 60 to 70 different companies, and we found that about 50 to 60 percent of those honeys tested are bad honey. Out of 110 products, around 70 percent were adulterated. There’s been something done to them. It is just pure fraud in our opinion. They’re selling products to the American public that isn’t what it says it is.”

– Kent Heitzinger, Lawyer

Honey has become widely more popular in recent years. Consumption of honey has gone up more than 40% in 20 years. Despite the rise in consumption, US beekeepers are having a difficult time selling honey because adulterated honey is the majority of what you’ll find on the market. Additionally, for environmental reasons, many beekeepers have lost a large percentage of their hives, thus making it harder to produce honey.

Adulteration is driving global honey prices down, leaving beekeepers barely able to sell their honey for a profit.”

Your Fancy Honey Might Not Actually Be Honey

Aside from the fact that companies are lying to consumers, this is a problem because adulterated honey does not have the same health benefits as raw honey. When honey is heated, it loses beneficial enzymes, and of course, when honey is diluted with sugar, you’re consuming sugar, oftentimes, unknowingly. Lawyers working with consumers who have bought adulterated honey have pointed out that companies have been doing this for years, and it is likely all profit-driven.

A prison in Ohio is accounting for the majority of coronavirus cases in Marion County, which has the leading number of coronavirus cases in Ohio. Officials are attributing the large number of cases to mass testing. Everyone, both staff and inmates have been tested for coronavirus. No COVID-19 deaths have been reported, however, more than 100 staff members and 2,000 inmates have tested positive for the virus.

“Because we are testing everyone — including those who are not showing symptoms — we are getting positive test results on individuals who otherwise would have never been tested because they were asymptomatic.”

Ohio Department of Rehabilitation and Correction

Although California, Florida, Georgia, and Texas all have larger prison populations than Ohio, no one has reported case numbers as large as Marion County. Michigan has also reported a high number of inmates testing positive for coronavirus with 572 inmates testing positive out of 889 inmates tested. Michigan has some of the highest case numbers in the country. New York, who also has extremely high case numbers is only testing inmates who show symptoms and has only reported around 1,000 cases within the prison system.

In the midst of the pandemic, the Ohio governor recommended 300 out of 49,000 inmates be released early. Ohio is not the only state to release prisoners early, however, the governor has stated that he is not planning a “Wholesale release” where every prisoner in certain categories is released.

According to antibody tests conducted in New York, more than 13.9% of the population may have been infected with COVID-19. 3,000 people were tested randomly to determine what percent of the population may have coronavirus antibodies. Tests were conducted throughout 19 different counties and 40 different grocery stores. Based on the results conducted, it’s likely nearly 2.7 million New Yorkers have been infected at some point.

On Sunday, Cuomo said the U.S. Food and Drug Administration approved the state’s antibody test that will provide the “first true snapshot” of how many people have been infected with Covid-19 in New York. State officials don’t know the true number of infections because they haven’t been able to conduct diagnostic coronavirus testing on a large scale”

Results vary among different counties with New York City showing positive antibodies in 21% of the population, 16.7% in Long Island, and 11.7% in Westchester and Rockland county. Mortality rates in New York were originally reported at around 7.4%, but testing indicated that the mortality rate is likely less than 1%.

In America, USC and Stanford have released preliminary studies that show that between 1-2 million people who may have been infected with COVID-19, in California (around 2-4 percent of the population). Despite these findings, California has reported around 33,200 cases, making the mortality rate more than 3%. However, based on the findings reported by preliminary studies, the death rate in California would be closer to .04%, the overall death rate is likely closer to 1%.

In Gangelt Germany, test results show that nearly 14% of the population was infected, this dropped their mortality rate to 0.36%. In Robbio Italy, it’s likely more than 22% of the population may have been infected lowering the mortality rate to 0.7%. In Finland, they’ve reported 4,000 official cases but tests show it is likely closer to 80,000-100,000, lowering their death rate to 0.1%. Some places are reporting flu-like death rates while other states are reporting more than double flu-like rate mortality. This is likely due to the age of people in communities with higher death rates.
