I like to avoid Rx meds as much as possible and only use OTC meds like paracetamol to deal with the aches and pains caused by the usual bugs. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All these pandemics were around the year 2020.....Boy I would love to be living in 2120 to see the next one... What I said was if they kept pushing covid beyond 2-3 years then covid was here to stay because that is how long the other pandemics lasted.... They were so power crazed I gave it a 50/50 chance the covid show might continue..Even though I knew it might end in 2 years.... Thankfully it seems they had been given only a 2 year limit on the covid show, same as in the previous pandemics...... So what we can learn from this is there is definitely a greater power above the powers that be... I've just read a missing link "Researchers have just discovered that people with respiratory conditions will be more affected by climate change." Interesting that ventilators fast tracked for COVID19 can be repurposed for the climate warming emergency. Are they hiding something from us?

fygjam Posted September 10, 2023 Share Posted September 10, 2023 ^^^ Oh dear, why do some flaunt their ignorance like a badge of honour. As with any manufacturing facility, the product isn't sterile until it is sealed in it's final packaging and then sterilized, for dry goods, usually with gamma radiation. What is Gamma Irradiation Used For? The gamma irradiation process can effectively treat a wide variety of products composed of different materials, with varying densities, configurations and orientations. Some examples of products processed include: Medical devices Pharmaceuticals Combination drug/device products Tissue-based and biological products Animal retail products Archives Cosmetics and toiletries Horticultural supplies Packaging materials https://www.steris-ast.com/solutions/gamma-irradiation/#:~:text=What is Gamma Irradiation%3F,photons being an effective sterilant.

But it's an exaggeration to say all gamma sources are dangerous. We use them for weld inspection and if housed in proper containers and handled correctly they are unlikely to cause human mutation as suffered by Doctor Bruce Banner. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Krapow Posted September 15, 2023 Share Posted September 15, 2023 Quite a lot about at the moment, i know a few, and child's swimming lesson on Sunday cancelled as the instructor has it. All with very mild, cold type symptoms. I said a couple of years ago i'd be getting no more injections, and i won't. But everyone's situation is different, each to their own. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heard that too about Pattaya. Can be a bummer to lose a week or so feeling like shit on holiday. I caught a nasty bug last year which knocked me out for over a week.

And as people started getting on with their lives, he pivoted to the conspiracy freaks who are still obsessed with such stuff, to keep people watching his videos, ka-Ching! 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
