What’s happening in China has been quietly happening in western countries since we Let It Rip in 2021. Below, you will find a thread of history we are choosing to forget.

In the US, we started off with Covid coinfections in 2021. Kids were testing positive for like 6 viruses simultaneously, and this was shocking and novel. (Massive thread)

June 2022: “Kids were admitted…with a startling range of 7 respiratory viruses. They had adenovirus & rhinovirus, RSV & human metapneumovirus, influenza & parainfluenza, as well as Covid — which many specialists say is to blame for the unusual surges.” washingtonpost.com/health/2022/06…

The same thing happened in 2022. With no Covid testing or data left, wastewater showed December 2022 was our 2nd largest Covid surge on record, but none of it happened on paper. (Thread)

Parechovirus in 2022

Nevada INFANTS were acquiring Candida auris in 2022. Public health is failing us, and it’s going to get so much worse. reviewjournal.com/life/health/fi…

Tuberculosis increased 26% among American children under age 5 last year.

Record strep. American children & children in many western countries have been dying of strep like it’s the 1700s.

Last year, western countries started realizing Covid may be damaging children’s immune systems.

We hit the accelerator for another year anyway. (Lengthy thread)

Enterovirus has been quietly paralyzing American children.

We’ve been ignoring skyrocketing pediatric brain abscesses and mysterious brain infections.

The CDC ignored it last year, claiming it was a return to pre-pandemic levels. It wasn’t. (Thread)

Dear Friends,

This isn’t normal, and it never will be.

A SEPTEMBER 2021 thread 😑

Lengthy thread — these stories are common now.

Lengthy pediatric LongCovid thread (scroll up). Studies show kids are at the same relative risk for LongCovid as adults. Disability claims tripled for UK teenagers last year. Americans can’t just hop on disability. It takes YEARS. We’re maiming kids.

My first pediatric LongCovid thread, back when media still covered Covid critically, going into great detail about how sick kids are getting. That all ended in 2021-2022, with The Great Unmasking and Back to Normal. (Scroll up/down)

🥴 And here’s another lengthy thread most of you have probably seen by now. Our wounds are usually self-inflicted.

OOPS.

“We may have disastrously underestimated one of the most serious sequelae: infection of the brain & nervous system. And we may have missed the neurological damage done to children and young adults who seem to have recovered from COVID.” thetyee.ca/Analysis/2023/…

The Usual Suspects are trotting out “immunity debt” to explain the situation in China.

The US debunked immunity debt last year, at least for RSV, but everyone ignores it.

The below article is from 2022. ADULTS were hospitalized with RSV at 10x the normal rate too. (Thread)

Here’s another horrifying thread. In 2021, the US learned pediatric diabetes DOUBLED since the pandemic began. The powers-that-be blamed “lockdowns & inactivity,” media ran with it, & we hit the mass infection accelerator.

We’ve known so much for so long, but the public is CONSTANTLY forced to forget and made to return to Pretend Normal—which entails mass infecting & reinfecting all the children.

When this started happening in 2021, it was NOT normal.

2022

The US is also reporting record syphilis and congenital syphilis, so are many other western countries. We are out of drugs to treat it until the summer of 2024. (Thread)

Plenty of Americans are getting “pneumonia” too. Leana Wen was HOSPITALIZED with pneumonia this summer, & a few months later she still wasn’t fully recovered. Adults, kids, even celebrities are reporting mycoplasma & rare pneumonias too.

Pneumonia thread:

“France is facing an ‘outbreak’ of pneumonia in children this fall, at levels not seen in at least 10 years.

An alleged culprit has been singled out: the bacteria mycoplasma pneumoniae.”

August in China

Here’s my massive US Legionnaires' disease thread I’ve been keeping since 2021. (Scroll up)

I started the thread with an article about a 32-year old American teacher who died from it that year, & the cases/outbreaks kept coming. Nothing to see here, carry on.

The time to do something was before The West shamed China into dropping ZeroCovid measures.

Western countries inflicted PERMANENT HARM on to unsuspecting populations, & then they lied about it & wooed “The Holdout” countries into following. We’re ALL dying for ideology now.

When meningococcal disease was skyrocketing in the US (and other western countries) last year, the CDC framed it as a gay disease, and we heard only gay men are at risk.

When it reappeared in 2023, it was no longer framed as a gay disease. (Thread, Scroll up/down)

🥴🥴🥴🥴🥴🥴🥴🥴

Who remembers when Hib hit a Detroit elementary school, sickening five, killing one child, & then the school immediately reopened?

Who remembers when human metapneumovirus “filled hospital intensive care units with young children and seniors?”

Also, the possibility exists the situation in China IS another novel virus, & we are going to do this all over again, but with immunodeficiency at the population level internationally. We’ve been hearing about “The Next Pandemic” while the current one accelerates. Who knows, public health has been hijacked by corporations & billionaires.

This wasn’t normal at all.

June 2022: “A surge in children testing positive for influenza has doctors at Johns Hopkins All Children’s Hospital puzzled, as the season typically runs from October to May.” stpetecatalyst.com/doctors-watch-…

Echovirus in Europe

Let It Rip Sweden has reported a ghastly and shocking increase in diabetes among children ages 0-4 since Covid began. In 2021, the US noted pediatric diabetes diagnoses DOUBLED, but we blamed lockdowns & inactivity instead of the virus, & other western countries followed.

I’ve been really hoping what’s happening in China was *just* post-Covid immune dysfunction, because the alternative is pretty frightening, but I don’t really know anymore friends…Good luck & Godspeed.

“Half of Beijing is seriously ill and no one knows why.”

BUT we have to acknowledge western perception is EXTREMELY warped after 3 years of normalizing severe mass disease & premature death. What’s happening in China has been our NORMAL. China had been holding it in check, but then they dropped ZeroCovid. Who knows? I sure don’t.

Yeah, so this is DEFINITELY not normal.

This really doesn’t sound good. 😣

YES, this is precisely the point.

In 2021, we learned SARS-CoV-2 was shortening telomeres and accelerating biological aging.

Then we infected all the children.

A sharp rise in Autoimmune encephalitis was reported since Covid began in Los Angeles & it’s likely prevalent. The below article is about a 13-year old girl who now has it. The thread contains articles about more kids who have it. It’s linked to suicidal thoughts/behaviors.

Mycoplasma pneumonia has doubled in one month in South Korea.

Enterovirus was paralyzing kids in 2022, & it wasn’t normal.

In 2023, we’ve got “atypical” hand foot mouth outbreaks in US adults, echovirus killing European babies, & the CDC was recently warning about EV-D68 again.

Oh and then there’s the 16 people who got West Nile neuroinvasive disease in NYC over a short period of time. (Thread)

This is probably fine.

THIS ISN’T NORMAL.

This thread has almost FIFTY posts, & I still haven’t covered everything. One problem is the large amount of damning data & evidence is SO OVERWHELMING, & people just tune it all out. Comprehending all of it breaks our brains. People cannot accept our governments would harm them.
