The furin cleavage site in the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein is required for transmission in ferrets


Authors: Williamson, Jack A. Hassard, Ecco Staller, Brian Hanley, Michael Osborn, Mauro Giacca, Andrew D. Davidson, David A. Matthews & Wendy S. Barclay SARS-CoV-2 entry requires sequential cleavage of the spike glycoprotein at the S1/S2 and the S2ʹ cleavage sites to mediate membrane fusion. SARS-CoV-2 has a polybasic insertion (PRRAR) at the S1/S2 cleavage site that can be cleaved by furin. Using lentiviral pseudotypes […]

Dr. Charles Hoffe issues Vaccine warning… Deep dive on endothelial damage to blood vessels…


Author: Dr. Charles Hoffe in a Coronavirus, that spike protein becomes part of the viral capsule. In other words, the cell wall around the virus, called the viral capsule. But it’s not in the virus. It’s in your cells. So it therefore becomes part of the cell wall of your vascular endothelium. Which means that […]

Johns Hopkins Physician — The Power of Natural Covid Immunity…


Authors: Johns Hopkins Dr. Marty Makary The news about the U.S. Covid pandemic is even better than you’ve heard. Some 80% to 85% of American adults are immune to the virus: More than 64% have received at least one vaccine dose and, of those who haven’t, roughly half have natural immunity from prior infection. There’s […]

Eye scan could determine whether COVID patients will be ‘long haulers’


Authors: by Study Finds Long COVID” continues to confound doctors as patients still struggle with debilitating symptoms months after first being infection. A new study now suggests that COVID patients who could be long-haulers could be diagnosed by taking a close look at their eyes. Nerve fiber loss and an increase in key immune cells […]

What Is the D-Dimer Test?


Authors: Richard N. Fogoros, MD The D-dimer test is a blood test that indicates whether blood clots are being actively formed somewhere within a person’s vascular system. This test is most often helpful in the diagnosis of pulmonary embolus and deep vein thrombosis, but it can also be useful in diagnosing other medical conditions in which blood clots play a […]

Never ignore extremely elevated D-dimer levels: they are specific for serious illness


Authors: T Schutte 1, A Thijs, Y M Smulders D-dimer is routinely measured as part of the clinical diagnosis algorithms for venous thromboembolism (VTE). In these algorithms, low D- dimer cut-off values are used to generate a dichotomous test result that is sensitive, but very non-specific for VTE. A consequence of any test dichotomisation is loss of information […]

Decoding SARS-CoV-2 hijacking of host mitochondria in COVID-19 pathogenesis


Authors: Keshav K. Singh,* Gyaneshwer Chaubey,* Jake Y. Chen, and Prashanth Suravajhala Because of the ongoing pandemic around the world, the mechanisms underlying the SARS-CoV-2-induced COVID-19 are subject to intense investigation. Based on available data for the SARS-CoV-1 virus, we suggest how CoV-2 localization of RNA transcripts in mitochondria hijacks the host cell’s mitochondrial function to viral advantage. […]

COVID Vaccines May Bring Avalanche of Neurological Disease


Authors: Dr. Mercola Interviews the Experts Any medical treatment must be evaluated along a cost-benefit analysis. No treatment is risk free. It is in this respect that transparent availability of risk-group-stratified data on potential effects of vaccination, as compared to corresponding unvaccinated groups, must be available. These should be analysed by specialists free of any […]

SARS-CoV-2 Spike Protein Impairs Endothelial Function via Downregulation of ACE 2


Authors: Yuyang Lei, Jiao Zhang, Cara R. Schiavon, Ming He, Lili Chen, Hui Shen, Yichi Zhang, Qian Yin, Yoshitake Cho, Leonardo Andrade, Gerald S. Shadel, Mark Hepokoski, Ting Lei, Hongliang Wang, Jin Zhang, Jason X., et. al. SARS-CoV-2 (severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2) infection relies on the binding of S protein (Sprotein (Spike glycoprotein) to ACE (angiotensin-converting enzyme) 2 in the host cells. Vascular endothelium can be infected by […]

Former VP of Pfizer warns of government lies about Covid and the dangers of the vaccine ostensibly designed to combat it


Authors: Gerard Clarke The Former Vice President of Pfizer, Dr. Michael Yeadon, has said that there is “demonstrably false” propaganda coming from governments in response to COVID-19, including the “lie” of dangerous variants and the totalitarian potential for “vaccine passports”. In an exclusive interview with LifeSite News, Dr. Yeadon, who was the Chief Scientist for […]
