An eight-year-old girl is the latest victim of Victoria’s “horror” flu season, with people urged to get vaccinated and not ignore symptoms.
The death of the Melbourne youngster on Friday is “horrifically sad” and follows the flu death of young dad Ben Ihlow on Father’s Day, the state’s health minister, Jill Hennessy, said.
“What it does show us is that we have a horror flu season on our hands,” Hennessy told media on Monday.
This is a feature of periods of high amygdala. Chronic amygdala lowers immunity. At the individual level, you don’t see it, but at the population level, it gives a push to pathogens that are probing the population. Every immuno-compromised person this flu infects becomes a petri dish, selecting for more capable strains of the flu, better able to overcome our defenses. As the flu gets more powerful, it infects more people, probing farther into the healthy population than it would have gotten otherwise, and adapts even more.
Already we are seeing small instances demonstrating how the minor shift to K is creating an easier battlefield for pathogens, and why this will mean that a pandemic will almost certainly be a feature of the Apocalypse at some point. Look at the subtle stresses today, and picture how much worse it will be if the economy collapses, currency becomes worthless, savages are running amok, loved one are dying from violence and disease, and world wars are beginning to take off.
Be ready to isolate, protect, and if necessary treat. Have medications like Tamiflu and antibiotics on hand, because there is nothing like a panic to produce a shortage.
Spread r/K Theory, because those who don’t know it are probably going to die
Couldn’t have anything to do with this could it?

You can actually build up your immune system a bit, but it involves regular physical training. Some people just have naturally strong immune systems and can handle pretty intense workouts, but in a collapse environment where food will be very hard to come by recovery from activity will be difficult. Add in little/no electricity (heating/cooling) and probable periods of intense physical activity (like a shootout or fleeing for survival) and you have a perfect storm for immune system decay. People lacking a disgust reflex just aren’t going to do well. The Flu can be tricky, different strains affect different people and can sometimes fell the weak or the strong, or both. This is probably why every European language has a saying like “gesundheit” or “bless you” for after a person sneezes. These types of sayings are far less common in other languages groups.

Autum is always flu season and when i see how people behave i don’t wonder at all how it spreads. Mostly women and children have no situation awareness and spread it around by just coughing right in front of them or they cough in their hand and then they give you your change. Especialy daycare centers and schools spread the flu. And every year the media screams about something new they can fearmonger about. They are around 20.000 flu related deaths every year where i live. If a population gets too dense, plauges emerge. See it as a long overdue form of Myxomatose to thin the herd of the rabbit people.
And chill the fuck out about every little headline will trigger some mass amygdala awakening.
The prior “big” flu pandemic, 1918, coincided with widespread use of aspirin (which depletes Vit. C), mass population movements (of troops) and was characterized by death due to secondary bacterial infections in a pre-antibiotic era. I don’t think influenza will be THE pestilence of the coming hardships, unless some other widespread collective stupidity (i.e., “pandemic” use of immunosuppressive drugs like opioids) is concurrent.
I don’t trust vaccines. I used to take them. The last one I had was a tetanus shot because…well it’s worth the risk but I won’t take flu shots. Not because I don’t believe in them but because I think their products are tainted and I’ve heard numerous times that they could be deliberately tainted. In the Ukraine the swine flu shot was tested by a researcher before it was given wide distribution and it killed all the monkeys it was given to, Turns out it was contaminated with deadly viruses, I think, it was something. Yet they said it was impossible to have cross contamination at the lab that created them.
Here’s an excellent set of papers on HIGH does of Vitamin C and how it defeats various infections. You can get massive doses of Vitamin C in the blood stream which is what you need with a new product called Liposomal C. I’m not selling anything you can make this stuff yourself or buy the product on the market(If I was dying I’d buy the market product).

The Liposomal stuff can be substituted for the intravenous Vitamin C but the intravenous Vitamin C I’m sure would be better. Stockpiling some packets of this stuff would be a good thing to do for a SHTF scenario.
