Tanzania mystery Ebola-like outbreak
And immune amnesia
Today’s night will be followed by two relatively shorter e-mails, life stuff most of the day, and will take the night to work on other pieces.
With the purpose of tracking and keeping a consistent record of potential and new outbreaks of diseases, I would like to bring to the attention of all of you this one.
Anyone reading me over the last 2 months will be aware I have been expecting an increase in old diseases, but perhaps given circumstances and mechanisms I don’t want to make public yet (for lack of proper evidence too) we might experience new diseases ?
If I am even marginally right, maybe the immune shift or the other mechanism I won’t discuss for now will give the proper change for latent infections that we have not seen before pop up, breakout so to speak.
I would like to bring up a point that will be important in the near future. The quite a perceptible increase in measles outbreaks. From single cases to hundreds and even thousands. Congo, South Africa, Argentina, Solomon Islands, Fiji, Australia, Ohio, Minnesota, Philippines, to name a few. This ties well with something else I might or not discuss down the line but will leave a helpful link here.
Loss of Preexisting Immunological Memory Among Human Immunodeficiency Virus–Infected Women Despite Immune Reconstitution With Antiretroviral Therapy
Despite antiretroviral therapy–associated improvement in CD4+ T-cell counts (nadir, <200/μL; >350/μL after antiretroviral therapy), antigen-specific CD4+ T-cell memory to vaccinations or infections that occurred before HIV infection did not recover after immune reconstitution, and a previously unrealized decline in preexisting antibody responses was observed.
You can quite well see where I am going with this. No, the vaccines are not VAIDS, if you think that, go back into my Substack and read every single post about SARS-CoV-2. Otherwise, you probably can tell what I am, lowkey, implying here.
*The cover for this article comes from this artist.
Measles used to be considered a normal childhood illness, mostly quite mild (for those, like me & my siblings & friends, who had a functioning immune system) but occasionally - as with every other disease that humans have ever encountered in the entire history of our species - it could be serious, even fatal.
Nobody ever suggested that it might have some sort of sinister immune disabling property.
Not until there was a vaccine available did measles become considered this dangerous.
Of course, that is just a coincidence...
Maybe im a thicko....but Ive read all your posts and I still dont get what youre implying! lol. Can you ELI5 for us slow-folk in the crowd?
Is it that both the virus and the vax both mess with the immune sytem and immune memory?thus allowing variants and old and new diseases to prosper?
