			ARTICLE SUMMARY
 
				
					
					
					All symptoms seen in Covid patients can be explained as neurological 
			impairment of the autonomic nervous system.
					
					Studies have shown that drugs that inhibit the sympathetic nervous 
			system are associated with a higher mortality rate in Covid 
			patients.
					
					These drugs, all commonly prescribed to the elderly, include 
			antipsychotics and anticholinergic drugs, benzodiazepines, opioids, 
			barbiturates, proton pump inhibitors, ACE inhibitors and other drugs 
			to lower blood pressure.
					
					Acetylcholine (ACh) is a key neurotransmitter; after it is released 
			into the synaptic space, it must be removed by acetylcholinesterase. 
			If acetylcholinesterase is lacking, the ACh will remain in the 
			synaptic space and the transmission will not continue.
					
					Microwaves and 5G affect the structure of acetylcholinesterase. When 
			ACh is not removed for re-uptake by the neurons, the body makes more 
			receptors for the neurotransmitters so that the sympathetic nervous 
			system can work. Ordinarily, this can help us adjust to new 
			electromagnetic influences, but if a person is taking the inhibitory 
			medications mentioned above, the drugs will become toxic since the 
			new receptors will greatly magnify their effects.
					
					Covid-19 patients need a reactivation of the sympathetic nervous 
			system, which can explain why vitamin C and vitamin D, but also 
			zinc, selenium and hydroxychloroquine seem to be beneficial. 
			Ivermectin seems to mimic the action of acetylcholinesterase, 
			thereby alleviating the damaging build-up of ACh.
					
					The connection of this illness with the 5G in retirement homes and 
			hospitals must be investigated. Many patients developed Covid-19 
			symptoms shortly after the installation of new 5G modems in the 
			facility. In Italy, the installation of these 5G modems began in 
			October 2019.
					
					Younger Covid patients often seem to be either cannabis or opioid 
			users, or are suffering from chronic adrenal insufficiency, often 
			due to either intense sports activity, poor diet, high stress and/or 
			lack of sleep. 
			Children like to play the Game of Why.
 
				
				When they start asking 
				"why," 
			parents become more aware of their own educational role.  
			Some 
			parents answer with pride and some with confidence, while others 
			feel they are not able to satisfy their child's curiosity. Some 
			children miss out because their parents don't have the patience to 
			answer.
 People think that children who ask "why" are intelligent.
 
			  
			I think 
			when they receive good answers, this encourages them to play this 
			game of asking questions over and over for the rest of their lives. 
			I was lucky enough to have someone answering my "why" questions 
			until I was old enough to look for the answers myself.  
			  
			This attitude 
			gave me the opportunity to do research in medical science and become 
			a physician.
 
			  
			  
			
			STRANGE CASES
 
 As a physician I practice in Italy.
 
			  
			When the rumors about the 
			symptoms of 
			this so-called 'pandemic'
			were first published, I 
			immediately realized I had already seen one patient in early January 
			with the same syndrome; then I encountered another patient who was 
			similarly affected.
 Both patients were in their eighties and both these patients were 
			given antibiotics for the pulmonary problems, but without 
			improvement.
 
 When I examined them I did not hear the typical sound of bronchitis, 
			nor did I notice signs of pneumonia. Thorax x-rays were negative for 
			lobar pneumonia but showed "dirty lungs."
 
			  
			There was a diffuse 
			crackle sound, similar to pulmonary edema (water in the lungs), even 
			though the patients did not act as though they were drowning in 
			water, which is the typical reaction to this condition.
 Both patients had a low respiratory rate but did not gasp for air. 
			When I consulted with an anesthesiologist friend, he confirmed that 
			Covid patients have a decreased respiratory rate along with low 
			oxygen saturation.
 
 This combination points to a neurological problem, as the normal 
			function of the respiratory center in the central nervous system 
			(the medulla oblongata) is to raise the respiratory rate when oxygen 
			saturation goes below a threshold.
 
 Both patients showed signs of intoxication from neuroleptic drugs 
			(haloperidol) and had soft swellings on arms and/or legs.
 
			  
			The first 
			patient had difficulties swallowing, but refused the jellied liquid 
			that the hospitals give for this condition. His initial fever went 
			down in two days, but his little cough persisted and he was unable 
			to bring up any phlegm.
 White blood cell counts for both patients were slightly elevated but 
			still within the normal range. Both patients showed a deep 
			deterioration of mobility; they could not even hold a cup. 
			Immobility led to bed sores.
 
			  
			Other signs were myosis (contracted 
			pupils), sleepiness and slurred speech. 
				
				The first patient was taking beta blockers, an alphalytic for the 
			prostate, and metformin for diabetes (which was discontinued due to 
			the lack of food intake).    
				The beta blockers were also discontinued 
			to help the cough bring up phlegm and because the heart rate was 
			low.
 This patient was unable to stay awake. Food intake was extremely 
			difficult - it took several minutes to chew one bite; however, after 
			he was given one orange to eat he could stay awake longer and talk 
			again. It took him several weeks to recover and months to eat on his 
			own.
 
 The second patient eventually passed away, but months after the 
			initial symptoms and after the 'pandemic' was announced.
 
 Naturally, these strange cases made me ask 
				"why."
 
					
					Why did the first 
			patient have these symptoms even though he had no infection? 
			   
					C-reactive protein (a marker for inflammation) was elevated, 
			probably due to the thrombosis on the arm, but what was causing the 
			problem in the lungs?  
				The cough was triggered mainly by drinking or 
			by difficulty in breathing.
 The second patient was taking haloperidol, an alphalytic drug, beta 
			blockers and metformin.
   
				Later, haloperidol was discontinued due to 
			the muscle stiffness, but still he had all the same strange symptoms 
			as the first patient. 
			  
			  
			
			INHIBITORY DRUGS
 
 Even though these patients suffered the same exact symptoms of the 
			new coronavirus described everywhere, no one who took care of them 
			got sick, even without masks and gloves.
 
			  
			Why?
 Of course, I kept asking why,
 
				
				why was I seeing such strange symptoms? 
				 
			The beginning of an answer came when I received an article, 
			originally written for Spanish physicians, that listed the drugs 
			that significantly increased the mortality rate of the
			
			Covid-19 
			patients.  
			  
			All the drugs outlined in the document inhibit the 
			"fight-or-flight" sympathetic nervous system, including, 
				
				neuroleptics 
			(like haloperidol), anticholinergic drugs, benzodiazepines, opioids, 
			barbiturates, proton pump inhibitors, ACE inhibitors and other 
			medications to lower blood pressure. 
			In retirement homes and hospitals, most are given 
			antipsychotic 
			drugs to keep them calm.  
			  
			However, the Covid-19 patient needs a 
			reactivation of the sympathetic nervous system.
 The common blood pressure drugs also work to counteract the effects 
			of the sympathetic nervous system.
 
			  
			Although insulin was not on the 
			list, we know that diabetics are more susceptible to suffer and die 
			from Covid-19, as insulin in fact is known to cause pharmacological 
			stress affecting the nervous system.
 
			  
			  
			
			THE AUTONOMIC NERVOUS SYSTEM
 
 The somatic nervous system responds to the conscious will to 
			voluntarily move skeletal muscle.
 
			  
			In contrast, the autonomic 
			nervous system (ANS) controls those functions that we are not 
			consciously aware of. 
			  
			In very general terms, the ANS has two 
			components:  
				
			 
			Acetylcholine (ACh) is a key neurotransmitter for our entire 
			nervous system, both central and peripheral - including the ANS.  
			  
			  
			NOREPINEPHRINE AND ACETYLCHOLINE 
  
			  
			  
			Thus 
			when acetylcholinesterase, the enzyme responsible for clearing the 
			ACh, is not working properly the whole body is affected.  
			  
			To overcome 
			fatal consequences the body makes more receptors to reactivate the 
			nervous system.
 We have many examples of drugs and toxins that interfere with the 
			action of cholinesterase enzymes; they are called neurotoxins, 
			causing excessive salivation and eye-watering in low doses, followed 
			by muscle spasms and ultimately death in higher doses.
 
			  
			Snake venom 
			and nerve gases are examples of two potent cholinesterase 
			inhibitors, leading to paralysis and death. Many insecticides, such 
			as organophosphates, also act as cholinesterase inhibitors.
 The adrenal medulla (the inner part of the adrenal gland) produces 
			neurotransmitters for the sympathetic nervous system, such as 
			adrenaline and noradrenaline (norepinephrine), while the adrenal 
			cortex (the outer part of the adrenal gland) produces corticoid 
			hormones for the parasympathetic nervous system.
 
 When the adrenal medulla is not working, as in Covid-19, this will 
			affect the adrenal cortex as well.
 
			  
			Covid-19 patients may be given 
			steroids, but these treat the cortical adrenal insufficiency, not 
			the medulla where the problem is. 
			  
			  
			 
 
			  
			  
			
			NOT CONTAGIOUS
 
 As mentioned earlier, the center for respiratory control is in the 
			medulla oblongata; it is part of the autonomic nervous system and 
			thus dependent on the neurotransmitter ACh and accompanying 
			clearance by acetylcholinesterase.
 
			  
			At the beginning I thought that 
			perhaps some virus was affecting the nervous system - but why was the 
			disease not contagious?  
			  
			The first patient was also cared for in a 
			hospital, where nobody got sick. I myself did not get sick, and no 
			one among the caregivers at his retirement home got sick. Nor did 
			the second patient pass the illness to family members.  
			  
			Nobody 
			involved in his care got sick. Masks and gloves were not in use in 
			those early days.
 One public health official in Milan had the task of following family 
			members of Covid-19 patients during the 'pandemic' in March and April 
			2020 - and found that no one got infected.
 
 Bars and restaurants on the highways have remained open, even 
			during the stricter lockdowns of the 'pandemic' peak, but nobody has 
			gotten "infected," despite customers taking off their masks to eat 
			and drink.
 
 I know some young people who did get sick.
 
			  
			What they had in common 
			was that they were all cannabis smokers - but no one else in their 
			families got sick. Cannabis is one of the drugs listed in the 
			Spanish document, and we know that cannabis works by blocking the 
			sympathetic nervous system.  
			  
			A worker in a nearby food store got 
			sick - he also was a cannabis smoker - but though he had contact with 
			lots of people, no one he came in contact with got the "virus."  
			  
			Why...?
 
			  
			  
			 
			
			THE 5G CONNECTION
 
 In the early days of Covid, I thought the illness resembled an acute 
			attack of multiple sclerosis or of myasthenia gravis.
 
			  
			In both 
			conditions, the problem arises in neuromuscular transmission; both 
			end in respiratory failure, as do other neurodegenerative disorders 
			such as Parkinson's, Alzheimer's and lateral amyotrophic sclerosis 
			(ALS).
 While pondering the mysteries of contagion, I watched a video by Dr. 
			Thomas Cowan, 1 in which he said that the 
			'pandemic' was due to the 
			electrification of the earth, especially the newly deployed
			
			5G 
			technology.
 
			  
			I wondered how Wi-Fi could cause such a thing, so I did 
			some research on microwaves and found that 5G was a technology 
			developed over fifty years ago as a weapon to sap the strength of 
			enemy soldiers and take away their power to fight. 
			  
			I also found that 
			5G affected the ANS. 2
 In my research, I found studies of microwave effects on animals 
			(rats and rabbits) done almost twenty years ago. 3
 
			  
			They showed how 
			animals exposed to microwave radiation produced more receptors for 
			the very drugs mentioned in the Spanish article, such as 
			antipsychotics, benzodiazepines, opioids and others.  
			  
			This explained 
			why so many people in retirement homes were sick, and also explained 
			the sudden deterioration of patients in hospitals where these drugs 
			are broadly used to keep people calm.  
			  
			With more receptors, the same 
			amount of the medication can cause overdoses; if they were not 
			taking inhibitory drugs, the extra receptors actually would have 
			been a helpful response to the microwave radiation.
 Although I reference only one article here, 3 many more studies have 
			investigated different combinations of microwave exposure - for short 
			and long periods at low frequencies, or for short periods at high 
			frequencies, or during the night versus the day.
 
			  
			Researchers have 
			documented many variations to understand the effects - none of which 
			are good.
 When I heard that in the U.S., people were dying in isolation and 
			prevented from seeing even their own children, I decided to speak up 
			about my findings.
 
 Another colleague working in a retirement home said people died once 
			their children could no longer come to feed them because, being so 
			slow at chewing and swallowing food, no one else had the time to 
			help them eat.
 
			  
			Old people in the Milan area were literally starving 
			and dying at home because they could not feed themselves.

			TREATMENTS FOR COVID-19
 
 Why did the orange help the first patient?
 
			  
			It is because vitamin C 
			helps to convert dopamine into noradrenaline, which is the primary 
			neurotransmitter of the sympathetic nervous system. 4  
			  
			The role of 
			vitamin D for Covid patients is explained below.
 Another question I asked myself was 
			
			why hydroxychloroquine is 
			helpful in treating this disease.
 
			  
			After all, hydroxychloroquine is 
			an antiprotozoa drug for treating malaria; the protozoa are between 
			ten and twenty-five micrometers (μm) long, while the coronavirus is 
			supposed to be 0.1 μm, more than one hundred times smaller.
 There is no evidence that the drug can kill a virus so small, so why 
			does it work?
 
			  
			Interestingly, hydroxychloroquine has a side effect 
			on the nervous system that turns out to be beneficial for Covid-19 
			patients: 
				
				hydroxychloroquine 
				stimulates the sympathetic nervous 
			system, and this is exactly what the Covid-19 patient needs, a 
			reactivation of the sympathetic nervous system. 5,6 
			An interesting finding about hydroxychloroquine is that it protects 
			cancer patients from radiation therapy. 7  
			  
			Cancer patients receive 
			ionizing radiation whereas 5G microwave radiation is non-ionizing, 
			so further studies are needed to ascertain the therapeutic role of hydroxychloroquine for non-ionizing microwave radiation.
 Zinc also seems to help, which raises another "why." The answer is 
			that zinc is very important and necessary for the nervous system.
			8
 
			  
			Selenium, too, has a primary role in nervous system function,
			9 and 
			in my opinion, it should be part of Covid-19 treatment as well.
 The loss of olfactory function has been widely studied as a 
			preclinical symptom in neurological degenerative disorders such as 
			Alzheimer's disease, 10 Parkinson's disease 11 and myasthenia 
			gravis. 12
 
			  
			The cholinergic pathway - and acetylcholinesterase 
			activity - are common denominators across all of the studies 
			highlighting loss of smell as an early and prognostic factor. 13-15
			 
			  
			The sudden loss of smell is recognized as an early symptom in 
			Covid-19. 16  
			  
			Studies of ivermectin show it to be structurally related 
			to many neurotransmitters, among them ACh. 
			  
			In a 2017 study published 
			in Scientific Reports, 17
			
			ivermectin demonstrated a role in removing ACh from the synaptic space, mimicking the action of 
			acetylcholinesterase (the enzyme damaged in patients with the Covid 
			syndrome).
 Last but not least, I would like to mention that the nervous system 
			is certainly awakened by sensory stimuli:
 
				
				in the past, to restore 
			consciousness, people used smelling salts... 
			I recommend keeping 
			some essential oils on hand, which can serve the same purpose.
 
			  
			  
			
			MORE QUESTIONS
 
 Why are young people also getting sick?
 
			  
			In my experience, there are 
			two different factors that endanger young patients: use of cannabis 
			or opioids and adrenal exhaustion (so-called chronic adrenal 
			insufficiency).  
			  
			The latter condition is common in young people who 
			practice lots of sports, who experience lack of sleep, or in those 
			who follow a vegetarian or vegan diet.  
			  
			All these factors can lead to 
			adrenal insufficiency, affecting the autonomic nervous system.
 This explains why steroids may work, at least temporarily:
 
				
				steroids 
			are synthetic hormones that replace hormones produced by the 
			adrenal glands.  
			We have seen many female patients in their forties 
			who, after recovering from Covid-19, entered early menopause due to 
			(cortical) hormone insufficiency.
 Although many of the health care providers using hydroxychloroquine 
			for Covid-19 patients are also giving patients antibiotics, there is 
			no logical reason to do so.
 
				
				This disease does not have a 
			bacteriological or viral origin, and the outcome is just as good or 
			better without antibiotics... 
			In fact, two studies confirm that 
			
			giving antibiotics like azithromycin does not change the 
			outcome for Covid-19 patients. 18,19  
			  
			Withholding antibiotics is the wiser course 
			of action unless the patient suffers from aspiration pneumonia, 
			caused by a solid or liquid in the lung, leaving the patient unable 
			to swallow.
 Another interesting question has to do with the influence of 
			temperature on the disease.
 
				
				In the beginning, the experts claimed 
			that the virus could not survive temperatures above 73 degrees F (23 
			degrees C); then they changed it to 80 degrees F (27 degrees C), 
			subsequently lowering it to 64 degrees F (18 degrees C).  
			In any 
			case, one has to ask another "why" question:  
				
				why were there so many 
			cases in the summertime in Florida and Texas, where temperatures are 
			much higher than 80 degrees F?  
			The explanation is that going from a 
			hot environment outside to an air-conditioned environment 
			inside - with a temperature difference that can be more than 20 
			degrees F - represents a constant shock to the adrenal glands, which 
			makes people more vulnerable. 20,21 
			  
			Many studies show that it is very 
			stressful for the adrenal glands to adjust to such temperature 
			differences. This constitutes more evidence that Covid-19 is a 
			neurological disease.  
			  
			This would explain why there was no fatality 
			among children in prepuberal age - the time when adrenal glands are 
			not so essential for their physiological functions.
 But the principal question we should be asking is why 5G causes this 
			ACh problem. Studies on mobile phones and Wi-Fi suggest an answer, 
			showing how microwaves change cholinesterase activity, affecting its 
			capacity to remove ACh from the synaptic space. 22,23
 
			  
			As mentioned 
			above, when ACh is not removed, nervous transmission does not go 
			forward, and when cholinesterase activity is suppressed, the ACh 
			re-uptake by the neurons cannot happen.  
			  
			This lack of neurological 
			function then causes our bodies to create more receptors for all 
			the neurotransmitters needed to keep us alive.  
			  
			This is, in fact, one 
			way that we adjust to new electromagnetic influences - from radio 
			waves to 5G - but if a person is taking medications that are 
			eventually blocking these extra receptors, the drugs will become 
			toxic, as all the new receptors will greatly increase their effect.
 The symptoms seen in Covid-19 patients will vary depending on the 
			different combinations of drugs that each person is taking.
 
			  
			A person 
			taking beta blockers might have problems with low heart rate and 
			coughing, because beta blockers block the epithelium of the 
			respiratory system: 
				
				this makes it difficult to get rid of the extra 
			mucous, which will remain stuck in the lungs. 
			The inability to breathe deeply due to the inhibition of the 
			respiratory center (despite decreasing oxygen saturation), 
			contributes to the accumulation of water in the lungs resulting in 
			the typical crackling sound.
 A typical picture of the coronavirus shows a cell membrane with 
			spikes.
 
			  
			Interestingly, those spikes have the exact same shape as the 
			cell membrane receptors for ACh, and a 2D picture of ACh receptors 
			on a cell membrane looks just like a 2D picture of the coronavirus 
			receptors. 24 
			  
			I am not saying the spikes are just ACh 
			receptors but they are certainly some kind of neurotransmitter receptor.
 In his video, Dr. Cowan explained that viruses are actually exosomes. 
			When an expert in RNA viruses and exosomes from Johns Hopkins tried 
			to explain what the coronavirus is supposed to be, he admitted that 
			there is no difference between the coronavirus and an exosome - except 
			that the coronavirus has an "evil" purpose while the exosome does 
			not. 25
 
			  
			Now, since this "evil" virus has not been seen holding a 
			pitchfork in his hand, we do not know whether it is an "evil" virus 
			causing the illness, or 5G microwaves. 
			  
			  
			
 JUST NEEDS TO STOP
 
 It is very sad to see how many old people have passed away and how 
			many continue to die.
 
			  
			It seems we are unable to stop the 
			destruction. When our wise bodies produce extra receptors to recover 
			from a microwave attack, we should consider avoiding the medications 
			that prevent this healing process.  
			  
			Most people can adjust to 5G, but 
			only if they stop taking inhibitory drugs.
 Actually during the past year, I had to reduce or suspend beta 
			blockers for many patients since their heart rates were too low for 
			the regular doses.
 
 Unfortunately, people who are unable to make the extra receptors in 
			response to microwave radiation seem to die very quickly. I 
			witnessed patients with all the Covid-19 symptoms but repeatedly 
			negative to Covid-19 tests, pass away in a couple of days after the 
			onset of the illness.
 
 It is important to notice that this neurological problem can also 
			appear without respiratory or cold symptoms, in which case it 
			resembles an 
			
			Addisonian crisis.
 
			  
			An Addisonian (or acute adrenal) 
			crisis occurs when the body is unable to produce a sufficient amount 
			of noradrenaline and steroids in response to stress.  
			  
			Symptoms include, 
				
			 
			I myself experienced an 
			Addisonian crisis in November 2019, and I 
			literally thought I was going to die. It was the first time in my 
			career I had to ask a colleague to do my shift, because I could not 
			move. 
			  
			I was awake but I felt like my body was sleeping, and when I 
			wanted to move my limbs, it involved the same effort as when someone 
			tries to move an arm or a leg while dreaming in his sleep.  
				
				As with 
			Covid-19, it was not contagious, of course... 
			Covid-19 patients, even those with mild symptoms, show decreased 
			sodium and increased potassium levels, confirming the adrenal 
			insufficiency. In the worst cases, the potassium is also low, which 
			in old people is often due to the use of laxatives or diuretics.
 The connection of this illness with the 5G in retirement homes and 
			hospitals must be investigated.
 
			  
			The first patient I described came 
			from a retirement home where they had replaced the telephone and 
			Wi-Fi system with new 5G modems one or two days before all the 
			residents got sick.  
			  
			Likewise, in another retirement home, they 
			installed new Wi-Fi modems just a few days before the epidemic burst 
			on the scene.  
			  
			A 5G modem was also in the house of the second patient 
			I described.
 During the lockdowns, a lot of people got sick while staying at home 
			because they changed their modems to get better Internet. At the 
			same time, a huge number of new 5G transmitters were installed all 
			over the country, including in very small villages.
 
			  
			I recently 
			visited a village where 5G had not yet arrived, and no one had 
			contracted Covid-19.  
			  
			In Israel, many religious people fell sick, 
			probably because they decided to have powerful Internet installed at 
			home during the beginning of the first lockdown so they could study 
			and be connected.
 In northern Italy, one doctor working in a hospital emergency room 
			during the peak of the illness was arrested for murdering Covid 
			patients by using drugs that inhibited the nervous system; due to 
			these drugs, they passed away. 27
 
 Many doctors all over the world have noticed that the condition of 
			Covid-19 patients worsens upon intubation, leading eventually to 
			their demise.
 
				
				To intubate a patient (that is, to put them on a 
			respirator), we use drugs that block the neuromuscular 
			transmission - the exact cause of Covid-19 lethality. 
			Looking back at the history of 
			"viral" infectious diseases, we may 
			remember another plague that affected the nervous system: 
				
				poliomyelitis... 
			In that case, the problem involved paralysis of 
			limbs, and death was due to paralysis of the respiratory muscles.  
			  
			To 
			help patients breathe, people used artificial lungs that 
			mechanically replaced the respiratory muscle contraction.  
			  
			I think 
			that these artificial lungs could have been of more help for 
			Covid-19 patients and certainly would not have caused the many 
			deaths that resulted from the inhibitory drugs used for intubation.
 Another question:
 
				
				When the nervous system is affected by Covid-19, 
			what happens with the immune system?  
			The simple answer is that, 
				
				the 
			white blood cells are our nervous system - our "brain" - in our blood. 
				   
				The neuro-transmitters are in our blood circulation, and they affect 
			our immune system.   
				This explains how 
				our emotions can change our 
			immunity, for better or worse. 
			  
			  
			
			SOLUTION TO THE ENIGMA
 
 I believe the solution to this enigma was given to me by the son of 
			a patient who survived Covid, who urged me to speak up.
 
				
				"Children 
			must see their elderly parents," he said. 
				 
				  
				"They have to go and put 
			food in their mouths in the most positive and loving way." 
				 
			This is 
			the explanation of every successful therapy - children must go to 
			their parents to help them recover.
 In northern Italy, this did not happen; old people were left in 
			retirement homes and from there taken to hospitals or left alone at 
			home.
 
			  
			As a colleague mentioned, 
				
				"Once children could no longer enter 
			the retirement homes to feed their parents, the parents all died."
				 
			We see people frightened to see their parents, or parents frightened 
			to see their grandchildren, but once they are together and taking 
			care of each other, the fear disappears.  
			  
			Certainly, good advice from 
			a conscientious physician can help, but without the care of their 
			children, old people hardly ever make it.
 I cannot stress enough that,
 
				
				this disease is not contagious... 
			People 
			should overcome fear and help each other.  
				
				We should not think 
			selfishly - because once you help your elderly parent, your children 
			will learn to do the same with you when you need it.    
				This is just a 
			basic part of being human!  
			I feel the only cure to this 
			'pandemic' is 
			to rediscover our shared humanity.
 
			  
			  
			
			SIDEBARS
 
 
				
				VITAMIN B1 DEFICIENCY?
 Interestingly, a recent article suggests that the symptoms diagnosed 
			as Covid-19 are actually manifestations of vitamin B1 (thiamine) 
			deficiency. 28
   
				Although the author clearly sees how the problems in Covid patients are in the autonomic nervous system 
				- just as I 
			describe in this article - he attributes them solely to a B1 
			deficiency.
 I believe microwaves are the problem and that vitamin B1 deficiency 
			worsens microwave effects on the autonomic nervous system.
   
				That 
			said, vitamin B1 supplementation probably would assist nervous 
			system functioning 29 and certainly could be helpful for diabetic 
			patients taking metformin or patients taking diuretics, as both of 
			these drugs deplete vitamin B1.
   
				VITAMIN D
 
 Why do people exposed to 
				sunlight recover before other patients?
   
				The 
			answer is that vitamin D is a neuroprotector and modulator of the 
				autonomic nervous system in many ways, some of which (summarized 
				below) were outlined in an article published in US Neurology in 
				April 2018. 30
 
					
					NEURONAL EXCITABILITY: Loss of neuronal excitability, which occurs 
			with aging, is a proposed cause of cognitive decline.    
					Studies (in 
			rats) show that vitamin D3 supplementation increases neuronal 
			excitability in the hippocampus.
 
					SYNAPTIC FUNCTIONING: Vitamin D upregulates genes essential for 
			synaptic plasticity as well as those needed for normal synaptic 
			functioning - including receptors for major neurotransmitters such as 
			dopamine, glutamate and serotonin.
 
 
					DOPAMINE SYNTHESIS: In Parkinson's disease, the observed dysfunction 
			of the substantia nigra (the midbrain region responsible for 
			producing dopamine, the so-called "feel-good" hormone) has been 
			attributed to a decrease in tyrosine hydroxylase (TH) and dopamine 
			synthesis.
   
					TH is the enzyme that converts the amino acid tyrosine to 
			dopamine. Studies show that vitamin D supplementation increases TH 
			expression and dopamine production in dopaminergic neurons in the 
			substantia nigra.    
					Vitamin D also upregulates N-cadherin, a protein 
			that plays a mediating role in the creation and development of 
			dopamine neurons as well as in synaptic plasticity and memory.
 
					ACETYLCHOLINE: Treatment with vitamin D3 increases the activity of choline acetyltransferase and increases ACh levels in brain areas of 
			relevance to Alzheimer's disease.
   
					A major risk factor for cognitive 
			decline and Alzheimer's is type 2 diabetes (T2D), which is thought 
			to reduce ACh levels.    
					In animal (rat) models, vitamin D 
			supplementation has produced improvements in T2D-related cognitive 
			decline, with the improvements mediated by increased choline 
			acetyltransferase activity and decreased activity of 
			acetylcholinesterase. 
					
 GLUTATHIONE: Glutathione acts as both a neurotransmitter and neuromodulator. Through its action on glutamate receptors, 
			glutathione confers protection against glutamate excitotoxicity.
   
					Vitamin D supplementation increases glutathione levels and has been 
			demonstrated to prevent the glutamate toxicity implicated in 
			cognitive decline. 
					
 SEROTONIN: Vitamin D responsive elements (VDREs) are found in 
			tryptophan hydroxylase promoter regions.
   
					Tryptophan hydroxylase 2 
			(TPH2) is an enzyme involved in brain serotonin biosynthesis. 
			Research indicates that vitamin D increases expression of TPH2 
			messenger RNA (mRNA) in the brain, suggesting vitamin D control over 
			brain serotonin levels.    
					In fact, studies point to a role for vitamin 
			D treatment in preventing both dopamine and serotonin depletion in 
			certain areas of the brain.     
				THERAPY FOR COVID PATIENTS
 The over-expression of receptors to overcome microwave toxicity is 
			something we are all experiencing at some level.
   
				If the Covid-19 
			test is actually measuring the density of these receptors, 
			eventually all exposed to 5G will be found positive. However, the 
			old, the fragile and those taking inhibitory drugs are more likely 
			to get sick.
 I believe vitamin C and vitamin D - in natural foods such as fresh 
			citrus (vitamin C) and in sunlight and/or cod liver oil (vitamin 
			D) - together are a great help in preventing Covid-19 symptoms, along 
			with a healthy, relaxed lifestyle and some micronutrients such as 
			selenium and zinc.
   
				All of the patients I have seen (and those I have 
			treated on the phone) have responded successfully to the therapies I 
			propose below, although these were generally healthy people. For 
			individuals taking many drugs, the solution is more complicated. 
				   
				However, suspending inhibitory drugs
				as much as possible must be 
			considered. 
					
						
						
						Discontinue inhibitory drugs until there is no more sign of toxicity 
			or overdose.
						
						Avoid EMF exposure.
						
						Consume a source of natural vitamin C.
						
						Take cod liver oil for vitamin D and supporting vitamin A.
						
						Get daily sunshine, if possible.
						
						Eat foods rich in zinc and selenium (or take supplements).
						
						Increase vitamin B1 intake if diabetic or taking diuretics. 
				The effects of microwaves depend on the duration of exposure and the 
			frequency amplitude - both being factors mostly beyond our ability to 
			control or even check.    
				What we can do is minimize our exposure, 
			especially in the home. Ultimately, I hope the world will find a 
			different way to deal with 5G microwaves.    
				Lockdowns and masks are 
			not useful and actually do more harm than good.
   
				L-LYSINE AND COVID
 
 Some 
				clinicians are describing L-lysine (the usable form of the 
				essential amino acid lysine) as another successful Covid-19 
				treatment. 31
   
				Food sources of lysine include meat, seafood, eggs and 
			dairy products. Among other benefits, L-lysine is known for its 
			anti-anxiety effects through its normalization of adrenal hormones 
			and enhancement of "adrenocorticotropic hormone, cortisol, 
			adrenaline and noradrenaline levels." 32,33
 Research indicates that L-lysine also modulates 
				nitric oxide (NO) 
			production.
   
				Impaired NO production can lead to decreased adrenal 
			gland production of the neurotransmitters so critical to the body's 
			stress response. 34   
				EMF expert and former biochemistry professor 
				Martin Pall theorizes that NO is implicated in "pathophysiological 
			responses to EMF exposure" through a process that results in 
			oxidative stress and free radical production. 35   
				For these reasons, 
			L-lysine has attracted the attention of individuals suffering from 
			overt electrosensitivity; L-lysine's ability to indirectly limit NO 
			production, 
					
					"should in theory help prevent or inhibit the vicious 
			cycle initially stimulated by EMFs.". 36 
				All of these factors can 
			explain L-lysine's successes in treating Covid-19.       
				ACETYLCHOLINE AND THE NERVOUS SYSTEM
 Acetylcholine (ACh) is a neurotransmitter at various synapses, 
			nerves and at the motor end plate of vertebrate muscles.
   
				When a 
			nerve impulse arrives at the nerve ending, ACh stored in vesicles is 
			released and binds to a postsynaptic receptor, causing 
			depolarization.   
				Since ACh is degraded by the enzyme 
			acetylcholinesterase, it has a brief duration of action. Inhibitors 
			of the enzyme, however, prolong the lifetime of ACh.    
				Nerve gases and 
			organophosphates lead to accumulation of ACh and associated 
			toxicity.
 In the synaptic cleft, the released ACh will associate with post- 
			and prejunctional receptors and is also subject to rapid hydrolysis 
			by the enzyme acetylcholinesterase into choline and acetate.
   
				Over 50 
			percent of the choline formed will be taken up again by the nerve 
			terminal and reused for neurotransmitter synthesis.
 In the autonomic nervous system ACh is the neurotransmitter of all 
			preganglionic and postganglionic parasympathetic neurons.
   
				ACh is 
			also present at the level of many brain synapses, in particular in 
			the basal nucleus.
 Adrenaline, or epinephrine, has been considered for years the main 
			neurotransmitter of the sympathetic nervous system, although it was 
			known that the effects of its administration were different from 
			those obtained by direct stimulation of the sympathetic.
   
				As well as 
			in the medullary part of the adrenal gland, adrenaline is also 
			released at the synapse level of the central nervous system, where 
			it plays the role of a neurotransmitter.
 Adrenaline is involved in the 
				"fight or flight" reaction.
   
				In 
			general, its effects are:  
					
						
						
						gastrointestinal relaxation
						
						dilation of 
			the bronchi
						
						increased heart rate and systolic volume (and 
			consequently cardiac output)
						
						deviation of blood flow to the 
			muscles, liver, myocardium and brain
						
						increased glycemia   
				NOREPINEPHRINE AND ACETYLCHOLINE 
      
				Noradrenaline, or 
				norepinephrine, is a neurotransmitter released by 
			chromaffin cells as a hormone in the blood, it is also a 
			neurotransmitter in the nervous system where it is released by 
			noradrenergic neurons during synaptic transmission.    
				As a stress 
			hormone, it involves parts of the brain where attention and reaction 
			controls reside. Together with epinephrine, it causes the "fight or 
			flight" response, activating the sympathetic nervous system.
 To sum up, the parasympathetic transmission works only on ACh and is 
			called cholinergic, while the sympathetic transmission sees ACh only 
			in the preganglionic synaptic space, which then stimulates the 
			release of noradrenaline and adrenaline neurotransmitters at the end 
			of the reflex pathway, giving it the name adrenergic.
   
				Thus if the ACh is not removed by the acetylcholinesterase in the preganglionic 
			cleft, the transmission cannot continue and the adrenergic system 
			does not work.
 In cases of emergency (for example, life-threatening circumstances 
			such as hemorrhage or thermal shock), noradrenaline and adrenaline 
			are also made by the adrenal medulla also without the brain stimuli.
   
				This emergency stress, if prolonged, may cause exhaustion of the 
			adrenal glands.
 ACh is also present in nonneuronal cells. In recent years it has 
			become clear that in the airways, the majority of cells express 
			choline acetyltransferase (ChAT) and contain ACh, including 
			epithelial cells, smooth muscle cells, mast cells and migrated 
			immune cells such as alveolar macrophages, granulocytes and 
			lymphocytes.
   
				However, the regulatory role of this nonneuronal ACh in 
			inflammatory airway diseases has yet to be established. I think this 
			can explain the respiratory problem in Covid patients.    
				Furthermore acetylcholinesterase 
				is also present on the membrane of red blood cells where the 
				cell shape is regulated. 37
 The changes in the 
				red blood cell membrane are connected to thrombotic events and 
				the role of zinc and vitamin E have shown a better outcome. 
				38
   
				Thrombotic events related to organophosphate 
			toxicity (meaning cholinesterase damage) have been widely 
			reported. 39
