The coming sepsis "pandemic"

Nurgle's Rot

Before I finish and publish my Sepsis (don’t get it mixed with the Endotoxin Tolerance one) substack I must do something different, as I will do today. Today it won’t be overcomplicated, with a lot of biological and medical terms. Simpler in some ways.

Given the framework I employ to analyze information on social media, using low-level signals and their repeated patterns, sometimes I use certain search terms to understand or measure where things stand.

It is no secret the importance I give, and the focus I put on Endotoxins, therefore I had a massive interest in sepsis, mentioning it as far back as 2021.

I woke up and couldn’t feel my legs — I had cancer and sepsis

A more recent, and concerning trend is the numerous “ads” for sepsis in children. ‘Silent’ symptom of killer sepsis in kids that you might notice when they cry

The most common symptoms include a rash that doesn't fade when you roll a glass over it and difficulty breathing, according to the NHS.

This could present as grunting noises, their stomach sucking under their rib cage, breathlessness or breathing very quickly.

Youngsters may also have blue, grey, pale or blotchy skin, and they may feel sleepier than normal or be difficult to wake, the health service says.

Not being interested in feeding or their usual activities can also indicate sepsis, also known as septicaemia or blood poisoning.

Nearly one in five of world’s newborns with sepsis die, study finds

Historically, newborns, infants, and children are at a higher risk of developing sepsis and its numerous complications, but the alarming upwards trend of the numbers is worrisome.

As a data point, in a news article from Brazil, people in Brazil fought to get the mRNA vaccine, hell, there were numerous arrests made on bribery charges, and some wealthier individuals got 4-5 jabs within a very short period of time.

Septicaemia kills almost 500 hundred people per day in Brazil
Deaths by generalized infection grew 13% in ONE YEAR

This will be a repeating trend for quite a while, also serving as a bridge to my Sepsis and Covid piece, but the final point in this rather short one is the following. While sepsis is indeed terrible and can be hard to treat depending on the place treating you and the timing of said treatment, it isn’t the “biggest” concern as a long-term trend.

Loss of life is terrible, but surviving sepsis is somewhat “worse”, sepsis can feed cancer, it can completely shift your immune system while in a septic state, it can induce organ damage in a dozen different (inflammatory) ways, but after it, your body becomes tolerant to pathogens and responds far less “aggressively” against an infection, referred to as Endotoxic Tolerance and Immune Paralysis.

Until tomorrow, when I most likely publish the Sepsis-Covid substack. Also, if you live in non-English speaking countries or are aware of higher than usual sepsis numbers, I would very much like to know.

If support this work, thank you !
