The explaination for excess deaths remains elusive. The phenomina centers around younger persons than expected with predominately cardiovascular. The British Medical journal lists possible causes related to shutdown but omits the suspicion that mRNA may contribute.
Reminds me of the all but forgotten experiment in Argentina when newborn infants, orphaned and isolated in steril nursery conditions, they died in unusual number. An experiment in 1944 confirmed a 50% neonatal death rate when babies do not encounter human contact.The shutdown and social isolation may have played a simalar role leading to excess deaths today in adults. Some of the babies died unexpectidly weehs and months after the isolation.
COVID probably produced a delayed effect too. The vaccine in a few cases as well. Persons contracting COVID after being vaccinated may have harbored added risk.
Another problem, not mentioned, might be the villifying of concerned cliniions who attempted early treatment for their patients.The isolation of physicians and lost oppertunity for early detection and treatment of other conditions surely ccontributed to what we are seeing,butt the age of death of these younger people remains puzzeling.
The corporate reform of medical practice replaces a physicians medical judgment with algorgans. This obvious failure of medical reform may contribute as well. Patients can’t get an appointment, or only two or three months ahead. They cant see a real doctor, and many juststay home. "If this is an emergency, hang up and call 911."
Civilizations under pressure often produce voices that crystallize their deepest questions. These are rarely kings or generals, but philosophers, teachers, and public figures who step into the square to provoke. Their role is not to rule but to make society face itself. In ancient Athens, that voice was Socrates. He wrote nothing. He simply asked: What is justice? What is virtue? What is the good life? His relentless questioning unsettled his fellow citizens, and Athens condemned him to death. He refused to flee, insisting that the examined life was the only life worth living. His death turned him into a symbol of Athens’ own unease. Our world has its own public voices. In recent years, Charlie Kirk became one of them. Whatever one thought of his politics, he drew large crowds, not only on American campuses but even in London and among Māori in New Zealand. He thrived on dialogue — fielding questions, sparring with critics, drawing applause. The style was different. Socrates aimed a...
