Hello Dear Friends, Cultural Creatives and Seekers Everywhere,
Every month, Alex and I offer a short, 5 to 8-minute video that we desire to be both informative and hopefully entertaining, in today’s vernacular … “edutainment.” This month’s presentation is a bit longer than usual for what we believe to be an important reason. The video provides “A Mini (no, a Micro, or perhaps better yet, a Nano)-course on The Human Immune System,” including a section describing what happens during a COVID-19 virus infection.
Knowledge is power. This video’s information empowers us by bringing to light the meaning of vague references to the role of the immune system in the COVID pandemic. In regard to the public’s awareness of a COVID infection, the most significant personal aspect is the fear that the virus is the harbinger of death. Which begs the question, “Is the COVID virus really lethal?” The answer is, “No, and Yes.”
COVID Mortality-The “NO” Side: As late as March, the World Health Organization (WHO) estimated that mortality rate of the COVID virus would kill millions in the US alone. According to the World Health Organization, the mortality rate for a COVID-19 infection is about 3 to 4% of those infected with the virus. A number that suggests that millions of patients will die from COVID-19.
Mortality rates are defined by dividing the number of fatalities by the total number of infected patients. The WHO mortality rate was based on only those COVID patients that visited a doctor or checked-in at a hospital. However, the symptoms experienced by the vast majority of COVID-infected people did not require medical attention, consequently a large population was not included in the WHO’s calculations.
Wide-spread public testing revealed that a massive number of individuals were infected but did not have symptoms bad enough to see a physician or check in at a hospital. When these people were included in the data, the newly adjusted mortality rate as of September is only 0.6%. The current data reveals that COVID-19 is not profoundly greater than the death rate of 0.1% for the annual flu season.
COVID Mortality-The “YES” Side: The U.S.A.’s extremely high COVID-19 mortality numbers are real! But the pertinent question is, “Are the pandemic deaths directly attributed to the lethality of the COVID virus?” The answer is simply, “No.” The U. S. Government declared that death certificates should reference the primary cause of death to be COVID-19 if a test revealed that the patient had been infected at the time of death OR if the doctor “believed” the patient had been infected (i.e., no test was taken). So, a terminal cancer patient, a heart attack patient, a car accident victim, or patient with other life threatening “comorbidities,” by law, would be counted as a COVID death, with or without proof of a COVID infection. The ICD (International Classification of Diseases), a medical classification list by the World Health Organization (WHO) reported: “COVID-19 should be reported on the death certificate for all decedents where the disease caused or is assumed to have caused or contributed to death. (CDC’s Division of National Vital Statistics, Report #3, April 2020).
Clearly, the COVID virus would complicate the health of a patient with a pre-existing comorbidity, but the virus itself would not necessarily be the cause of death. With that in mind, it is important to note that 40% of Americans have TWO or MORE chronic illnesses that would tax the function of their immune systems. For them, a COVID-infection could easily override their already stressed immune functions. Those with compromised health should take every precaution possible to avoid a COVID-infection, including using masks and, as best as possible, quarantine themselves from the general public.
We cannot readily eliminate the COVID virus from our world. To deal with the pandemic problem we have been focusing our attention on increasing available healthcare. This is truly an indirect approach to the problem. More directly, what we can and must do is make a major effort of improving the health of the human population by: eating better, more nutritious organic and natural foods; daily use of supplements and vitamins; more outdoor time and exercise; and most importantly, avoiding stress (which has become a major consequence of staying alive in America).
We must start recognizing that we are personally responsible for maintaining a healthy immune system. As the data now reveals, most everyone infected with COVID that has had a healthy immune system can easily weather a COVID-19 infection … and in the process, create a healthy immune response that includes “immunological memory” that will protect them from any future COVID infection.
With Love, Light, and Deepest Appreciation for all of you!
Bruce

Bruce’s Spotlight
Years of lecturing around this beautiful planet have provided me an opportunity to encounter wonderful Cultural Creatives that are helping to bring harmony into the world. Each month, I want to honor these cultural creatives by sharing with you the gifts they have shared with me.
This month, I’d like to honor singer, songwriter, and medical doctor Freja Eriksen (aka The Singing Doctor), who I had the chance to meet when I was in Denmark last year. Freja has a sonorous mission. And it is an important one! With her music and songs, she lovingly but consistently reminds us that we are all a part of, and have something important to contribute to, this beautiful community called Earth. November 6th, Freja Eriksen’s debut album It’s Time For A Sustainable World will be released; an album where all the songs in one way or another revolve around man and the Earth as one collective organism, and about how we can each make a lasting difference. The music can best be described as folk-pop with a Celtic touch, with Freja’s powerful and sensitive empathetic vocals in front. Have a listen!
