You have come across a mystery box. But what is inside?

It could be literally anything from the serene to the horrific,

from the beautiful to the repugnant,

from the mysterious to the familiar.

If you decide to open it, you could be disappointed,

you could be inspired, you could be appalled.

This is not for the faint of heart or the easily offended.

You have been warned.

Why did Deaths among Female Children increase by 57% immediately after they were offered the Covid-19 Vaccine?

Prior to young girls being offered the Covid-19 vaccine, deaths among the age group were in line with the expected five-year average. But an analysis of official data published by the Office for National Statistics shows that deaths among female children increased by 57% immediately after they were first offered the Covid-19 vaccine.

The risk of children dying due to the alleged Covid-19 disease is so extraordinarily low that it is negligible, and this is precisely why the Joint Committee on Vaccination and Immunization refused to recommend that children be offered a Covid-19 injection in the UK, citing that the benefits do not necessarily outweigh the risks.

One of those known risks is a condition known as myocarditis, which causes inflammation of the heart muscle and reduces the heart’s ability to pump blood, and can cause rapid or abnormal heart rhythms.

Eventually, myocarditis weakens the heart so that the rest of the body doesn’t get enough blood. Clots can then form in the heart, leading to a stroke or heart attack. Other complications of the condition include sudden cardiac death. There is no mild version of myocarditis, it is extremely serious due to the fact that the heart muscle is incapable of regenerating. Therefore, once the damage is done there is no rewinding the clock.

Medicine regulators are fully aware that myocarditis can result from an adverse reaction to the Covid-19 injections, especially to the Pfizer mRNA injection. They are also well aware that it disproportionally affects younger adults and teenagers.

So if the UK Medicine Regulator is aware of the risk of myocarditis following Covid-19 vaccination, we’re quite positive the Chief Medical Officer for England, Professor Chris Whitty, who overruled the JCVI and advised the Government to offer the Pfizer Covid-19 injection to children, was also aware of the risk of myocarditis following Covid-19 vaccination.

Chris Whitty and his fellow Chief Medical Officers for Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland wrote to the UK Government on September 13th 2021 advising the Government to roll out the Pfizer Covid-19 vaccine to all children over the age of 12 with immediate effect. Thanks to plans that had been put in place under the instruction of then Health Secretary, Sajid Javid, the NHS was ready to roll out the Covid-19 vaccine to children across schools the following week.

September 13th fell in week 37 of 2021, so we took a look at the official death statistics of children aged 10-14 from week 38 onwards. The ONS data for 2021, can be found here and it includes deaths in England and Wales that occurred up to the end of week 44.

So we compared those stats against the deaths to have occurred between week 38 and week 44 in the ‘Five year average weekly deaths by sex and age group, England and Wales: deaths occurring between 2015 and 2019’ dataset previously published by the ONS, which can be found here:

Conspiracy theories sometimes have at least a thread of truth in them, which is what makes them valid to some on the far right.

One of those theories is that the federal government is not on their side. Concern has been raised in conservative circles about the hiring of 87,000 new IRS agents as just one example. Trust in the IRS has been in decline for many years, ever since President Richard Nixon used the government as a weapon against his political enemies and Lois Lerner during the Obama administration denied tax-exempt status to many conservative political and religious organizations.

It isn’t just politics. Americans for Tax Reform, a politically conservative U.S. advocacy group based in Washington, D.C., has listed 10 examples of outrageous behavior by the IRS.

There is another reason some Americans on the right are just now becoming aware of the number of weapons associated with government entities, including some departments within the IRS.

I did not know until constitutional attorney John Whitehead, president of the Rutherford Institute, a conservative Christian public interest law firm based in Charlottesville, Virginia, sent me a list of federal agencies that have weapons we didn’t know about, though various media have occasionally reported on the subject over the years.

Here’s the list from the Rutherford Institute that Whitehead sent me, which he says he compiled from those few media that did report on the subject:

— The IRS has stockpiled 4,500 guns and 5 million rounds of ammunition in recent years, including 621 shotguns, 539 long-barrel rifles, and 15 submachine guns. If true, an explanation is needed so that conspiracy theories don’t multiply.

— The Veterans Administration purchased 11 million rounds of ammunition (equivalent to 2,800 rounds for each of its officers), along with camouflage uniforms, riot helmets and shields, specialized image enhancement devices, and tactical lighting. That’s ironic since many veterans used weapons to defend the nation. Are they now seen as potential enemies of the government many of them fought for?

— The Department of Health and Human Services acquired 4 million rounds of ammunition, in addition to 1,300 guns, including five submachine guns and 189 automatic firearms for its Office of Inspector General.

— According to an in-depth Rutherford Institute report on “The Militarization of the U.S. Executive Agencies,” the Social Security Administration secured 800,000 rounds of ammunition for its special agents, as well as armor and guns. Seniors beware!

— The Environmental Protection Agency owns 600 guns. And the Smithsonian Institution now employs 620-armed “special agents.” You’d better not get near those dinosaurs, or litter the highway, or else.

Should we be concerned? Congress authorizes the budgets for these agencies. Have members asked their secretaries and directors why they need all this fire power? Why haven’t the broadcast networks and major newspapers...

The Antitumor Effects of Quercetin

Quercetin has an apoptotic effect on aging cells that may help prevent or be helpful in the treatment of cancer; years of research have also demonstrated it prevents chemically induced cancer and lung cancer, and inhibits the proliferation of cancer cells
Quercetin has also demonstrated the ability to mitigate some of the effects of sleep deprivation, including mood changes, anxiety, memory performance, hyperactivity and cognitive impairment
The combination of quercetin, bromelain, vitamin C and zinc has emerged in at least two of the successful protocols used to treat COVID-19; historically, data have shown it is effective against influenza, zika, hepatitis B and rhinovirus responsible for the common cold
Quercetin is not water-soluble and is poorly absorbed unless it is paired with bromelain or vitamin C. Quercetin has shown positive benefits for heart disease, high blood pressure, metabolic syndrome, NAFLD and arthritis
Quercetin is found in onions, red grapes and green tea.

It could be a useful supplement to stock in your medicine chest to use when you believe you may be getting an upper respiratory infection

Quercetin is an antioxidant flavonol that's found in foods such as red grapes, green tea, elderflower and onions, to name a few.1 As the health benefits of the supplement become more widely known, the market has grown rapidly.2 According to market research, quercetin market was worth $261.12 million in 2020 and is expected to reach $406.58 million in 2027.

Quercetin has a wide range of benefits, which has made it useful for a variety of different health conditions. In the last two years, the antiviral benefits of quercetin have been the focus of many studies.3 However, there are other, lesser-known benefits, including the effects as a senolytic agent against senescence-mediated cancer growth.4
It is perhaps most well-known as a strong antioxidant5 and antiviral.6 For example, Elderflower extract, which is rich in quercetin, is a traditional tonic used to boost immunity. In supplement form, quercetin has been used to prevent and treat the common cold and influenza.7

According to Mount Sinai,8 quercetin should be used with caution as it may interact with certain antibiotics by reducing the effectiveness of the drug. It may also enhance the effect of some blood thinners, which can increase your risk of bleeding. In addition to these, it may interact with corticosteroids, digoxin, cyclosporine and fluoroquinolones.

Quercetin Effect on Senescence-Mediated Cancer Cells
A paper9 published in August 2022 in Nutrition Research analyzed the pro-apoptotic effect that quercetin has on aging cells. The paper reviewed preclinical and early phase data using quercetin as a senolytic agent and found the data showed it was effective in “preventing or alleviating cancer formation.”

The authors reviewed the importance of cellular aging in the development of cancer cells and the effect that quercetin may have on the suppression of cancer cell proliferation. Research has found that cellular aging can suppress tumor development, but paradoxically can also enhance cancer development.10

Cellular senescence is a dynamic and multi-step process that is associated with alterations in metabolic activity and gene expression.11 This can compromise tissue regeneration and contribute to aging. On the other hand, by removing senescent cells, age-related dysfunction can be attenuated and potentially extend the lifespan.

One paper12 published in 2008 recognized that animal studies had demonstrated quercetin could prevent chemically-induced cancer growth and epidemiological studies found it was associated with preventing lung cancer. One study13 focused on the effect that physiologically attainable doses of quercetin had on the inhibition of cancer cell proliferation. The researchers believed their study demonstrated quercetin had chemopreventive properties.

Lab studies14 have also demonstrated that quercetin is a strong antioxidant and has pro-apoptotic effects on tumor cells, with the ability to block growth at different phases of the cell cycle. Research15 also has demonstrated that quercetin can promote the loss of cell viability and autophagy through several pathways, including those involving mitochondrial function and glucose metabolism.

Data16 indicate that quercetin could play a role in cancer treatment as it reportedly has synergistic effects in combination with chemotherapy agents or radiation therapy. Quercetin has also shown promising results with chemoprotective and radioprotective properties, by protecting normal cells against the effects of chemotherapy and radiation therapy.

One paper17 identified some of the anti-inflammatory, antioxidant and antiproliferative properties quercetin has that enhances breast cancer treatment, while another18 evaluated its effect on the treatment of ovarian cancer, which is a serious cancer growth and threat to...
