Surging nervous system disorders now top cause of illness: study

Conditions affecting the nervous system — such as strokes, migraines and dementia — have surged past heart disease to become the leading cause of ill health worldwide, a major new analysis said on Friday.

More than 3.4 billion people — 43 percent of the global population — experienced a neurological condition in 2021, far more than had previously been thought, the analysis found.

The study was carried out by hundreds of researchers led by the US-based Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation (IHME), which has become a global reference for health statistics.

Lead study author Jaimie Steinmetz of the IHME said the results showed that nervous system conditions are now “the world’s leading cause of overall disease burden”.

Cases of these conditions have soared by 59 percent in the last three decades, she said, with the increase mainly driven by the fact that the world’s population was ageing and growing fast.

The researchers looked at how 37 different neurological conditions affected ill health, disability and premature death across 204 countries and territories from 1990 to 2021.

This data was used to estimate how many years of healthy life were lost to each condition, called disability-adjusted life years (DALYs).

More than 443 million years of healthy life were lost to nervous system disorders globally in 2021, an 18-percent increase from 1990, the study found.

Report: ‘Healthcare workers’ raped innocents; UN ‘peacekeepers’ shelled civilians

Healthcare rapists

As shocking as the revelations about mass rapes of women and children by UN “peacekeepers” and “teachers” may be, even more distressing is that UN employees supposedly dedicated to healthcare have carried out those very same atrocities and are led by an actual terrorist.

As Frontline News previously reported, the World Health Organization (WHO), a UN agency, is headed by a terrorist who keeps rapists and pedophiles on staff giving them the power to abuse the poorest people in the world.  He even flies these staff members to towns in the developing world, with fancy rental cars and hotel rooms waiting for them, and with far more cash than the local residents have – a perfect recipe for exploitation.

Actual terrorist at the helm

Even hardcore anti-globalists might be tempted to write off such charges as ludicrous, yet it is hard to ignore the evidence Frontline News has detailed about WHO Director-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus’s past:

Tedros [was] a leader of Ethiopia’s brutal minority party, the Tigray People’s Liberation Front, a wing of the ruling Marxist-rooted Ethiopian People’s Revolutionary Democratic Front …The United States State Department has categorized TPLF as a terrorist organization due to its “violent activities …

During his tenure as Ethiopia’s health minister and then foreign minister, Tedros risked the health of citizens for political gain:

[H]ealth experts in Ethiopia noticed a strange phenomenon: The government was refusing to acknowledge cholera outbreaks. Instead, the authorities labelled the outbreaks as “acute watery diarrhea” … the Ethiopian government was pressuring its health workers to avoid any mention of cholera, which could damage the country’s image and deter tourists.

That’s from Tedros’ pre-WHO days. What of Tedros today?

Actual rapists on the healthcare staff

Australian Senator Malcolm Roberts argued on the floor of Parliament that the WHO, far from having well-meaning leaders unaware of the child rapes carried out by their subordinates, “is rotting from the head,” Frontline News reported. Here’s his textual introduction to the video of his speech, posted on his YouTube Channel:

Former terrorist Tedros Ghebreyesus will not fire 83 WHO staff engaged in abuse including rape and forced abortions, with one victim 13, claiming rape and forced abortion do not violate WHO’s policies because the victims were not receiving WHO aid. [Emphasis added.]

The new rise of “shaken baby syndrome”

Parents who follow their physician’s advice to vaccinate their kids can find that their child subsequently develops encephalitis soon after vaccination (more likely when multiple vaccines are given at once and even more likely if the child has an infection at the time of vaccination) which then becomes a permanent brain injury.

Their doctor then reports the parents to Child Protective Services for “shaken baby syndrome” and their child is taken away.

Physicians are never to blame of course, because vaccines are safe and effective.

While this is unlikely to happen to any of my readers who know better than to ever vaccinate their kids, it is happening to parents who are not aware that vaccine risks outweigh the benefits because they rely on their doctors for medical advice.

Also, DPT vaccine injuries were also often attributed to shaken baby syndrome. And SIDS was partially created to cover up vaccine deaths.

This is becoming more prevalent now with COVID vaccines being part of the mix.

Our vaccine injured Kiwi called Auckland Hospital this morning to confirm how long she would have to wait to see a Cardiologist as an outpatient?

She did this following information from her doctor…. that was so extreme she decided to check the facts herself.

Today Auckland Hospital confirms A MINIMUM OF TWO YEAR WAIT TO SEE A CARDIOLOGIST AS AN OUTPATIENT

I wonder how many people will die in the meantime?”

Trans Lobbyists Angry That UK NHS Has BANNED Puberty Blockers For Kids

Transgender lobbyists are upset that the National Health Service in the UK has announced that children will no longer be given puberty blocker prescriptions following conclusions by health experts that there are serious safety concerns.

The NHS commissioned the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) to review the published evidence on Gonadotrophin Releasing Hormone Analogues (GnRHa), AKA puberty blockers, which prevent the body from making sex hormones.

An NHS England policy document published Tuesday noted “NHS England has carefully considered the evidence review conducted by NICE (2020) and has identified and reviewed any further published evidence available to date.”

“We have concluded that there is not enough evidence to support the safety or clinical effectiveness of PSH (puberty suppressing hormones) to make the treatment routinely available at this time,” the document further noted.

How Doctors Have Betrayed Patients

Those who argue that doctors are responsible for any improvement in life expectancy which we may enjoy overlook the fact that from the Dark Ages, through the Renaissance and up to the first few decades of the 20th century, infant mortality rates were absolutely terrible and it was these massive death rates among the young which brought down the average life expectation.

The Foundling Hospital in Dublin admitted 10,272 infants in the years from 1775 to 1796 and of these, only 45 survived. In Britain, deaths among babies under one-year-old have fallen by more than 85% in the last century. Even among older children, the improvement has been dramatic. In 1890 one in four children in Britain died before their tenth birthday. Today 84 out of every 85 children survive to celebrate their tenth birthday. These improvements have virtually nothing to do with doctors or drug companies but are almost entirely a result of better living conditions.

In 1904 one-third of all British schoolchildren were undernourished. Poor diets meant that babies and small children were weak and succumbed easily to diseases. Older children from poor families were expected to survive on a diet of bread and dripping and many women who had to spend long hours working in terrible conditions were unable to breastfeed their babies, many of whom then died from drinking infected milk or water.

When the improvements in child mortality figures are taken out of the equation it is clear that for adults living in developed countries life expectation has certainly not risen in the way that both doctors and drug companies usually suggest.

It isn’t even possible to credit vaccination programmes with the improvement in life expectation since the figures show quite clearly that mortality rates for diseases as varied as tuberculosis, whooping cough and cholera had, as a result of better living conditions, all fallen to a fraction of their former levels long before any of the relevant vaccines were introduced.

There are real doubts, too, about the value of the drugs which doctors prescribe.

If drugs were only ever prescribed sensibly and when they were likely to interfere with a potentially life threatening disease then the risks associated with their use would be acceptable. But all the evidence shows that doctors do not understand the hazards associated with the drugs they use and frequently prescribe inappropriately and excessively. Many of the deaths associated with drug use are caused by drugs which did not need to be taken.

The best example of the modern tendency to over-prescribe probably lies in the way that antibiotics are used. One in six prescriptions is for an antibiotic and there are at least 100 preparations available for doctors to choose from. When antibiotics – drugs such as penicillin – were first introduced in the 1930s they gave doctors a chance to kill the bacteria causing infections.

The impact made by antibiotics has been exaggerated because most of the diseases which are caused by organisms which are susceptible to antibiotics were on the decline before the antibiotics were introduced.

The leading ‘scientific’ agency behind so-called transgenderism allegedly knew its ‘treatments’ could be dangerous and ineffective

On Monday, Michael Shellenberger’s organization, Environmental Progress (“EP”), published a report that may end the trans movement. It obtained what it says are leaked files from WPATH—the World Professional Association of Transgender Health—which has set the standard of so-called “care” for so-called “transgenderism” across America. These files reveal that the people behind WPATH were allegedly aware of evidence showing that their recommendations were unhelpful and dangerous.

The title, subtitle, and lede of Mia Hughes’s 242-page report spell out the claim that leaked documents show that WPATH was guided by ideology—the desire to legitimize alleged “transgenderism”—rather than by sound scientific analysis, medical practices, and concern for patient well-being (especially child well-being):

The WPATH Files

Pseudoscientific Surgical and Hormonal Experiments on Children, Adolescents, and Vulnerable Adults

LEAKED FILES FROM WPATH REVEAL WIDESPREAD MEDICAL MALPRACTICE ON CHILDREN AND VULNERABLE ADULTS AT GLOBAL TRANSGENDER HEALTHCARE AUTHORITY

World Professional Association of Transgender Health (WPATH) members demonstrate a lack of consideration for long-term patient outcomes despite being aware of the debilitating and potentially fatal side effects of cross-sex hormones and other treatments

I’ve embedded at the end of this post Michael Shellenberger’s Twitter thread providing a summary of the report’s contents. In the thread, after explaining the genesis of the WPATH Files project and his decision to publish, Shellenberger provides just a sampling of the documents and videos that would lead most people to believe that WPATH is not a serious scientific/medical organization. Instead, it comes across as an ideological machine that will do anything to advance the concept that so-called “transgenderism” is real (rather than a form of body dysphoria) and that dangerous chemicals and mutilating surgery can, in fact, magically change people into the opposite sex.

Outrage as thousands of breast cancer-stricken women in England are denied life-extending drug available in Scotland

Thousands of women with incurable breast cancer say they are being ‘robbed of precious time with their loved ones’ after being denied life-extending drugs available in Scotland.

In what has been hailed a ‘dark day’ for patients, the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence watchdog said Enhertu is not cost-effective.

Trials of the drug found it boosted the time the cancer was held at bay from seven months to over two years – results that were called ‘mind-blowing’ by experts.

Charities and patients said they were in ‘absolute shock’ at the decision, which comes months after it was approved north of the border.

Labelled a ‘wonder drug’ by oncologists, it is also available in 13 other European countries, as well as the US and Canada.

Last night, health officials were accused of creating a ‘cruel post code lottery’ in which ‘women’s lives in England, Wales and Northern Ireland are somehow worth less’.

In a sign of growing anger, a Breast Cancer Now petition rallying against the decision had reached more than 6,000 signatures in just a few hours.

Baroness Delyth Morgan, the charity’s chief executive, blamed a ‘broken system’, adding new methods for evaluating health technologies at Nice for ‘denying secondary breast cancer patients access to potentially life-extending medicines that may have previously been approved on the NHS.’

She said: ‘This is a dark day. This means that thousands of mums, daughters, sisters and wives face knowing a treatment that could have been a lifeline for them exists, but remains out of reach.

‘Meanwhile women in Scotland have been granted access to it.’

Canadian minors get testosterone after 10-min appointment in Quebec

On Thursday, Radio-Canada revealed its investigation into the Quebec health system showed that a 14-year-old female would be able to get a prescription for testosterone in ten minutes.

The French news outlet posted the video on its website with the caption, “More and more teenage girls are choosing to change their gender around the world.”

“In Quebec, the health system responds very quickly to their requests for medical transition by prescribing blockers, testosterone, and mastectomies.” It continued. “These young girls often present with several mental health problems and many wonder if we give ourselves the time to evaluate everything that is going on in their heads.”

“Is it normal for a 14-year-old girl to get a testosterone prescription within minutes? And what happens when they change their minds?” the outlet questioned.

In a post on X, Quillette editor Jonathan Kay said the video is “what real reporting looks like.” He noted, “Investigative team sends a 14-year-old actress to a Quebec clinic. She claimed she was trans & got a testosterone prescription in 10 minutes.”

Childhood Vaccine Schedule Led To ‘Greatest Decline In Public Health In Human History’

Public health agencies have refused to study or to publicly release data comparing the health outcomes of vaccinated and unvaccinated children, according to experts who spoke during Monday’s Senate roundtable discussion on “Federal Health Agencies and the COVID Cartel.”

The roundtable, hosted by Sen. Ron Johnson, also focused on COVID-19 vaccine contamination, the development of COVID-19 vaccines as part of bioweapons research and on censorship of journalists and scientists.

Brian Hooker, Ph.D., chief scientific officer for Children’s Health Defense (CHD), participated in the roundtable. He told The Defender that the corruption of public health agencies was an “issue [that] came up again and again, with solid data,” during the roundtable.

Hooker, who also appeared on Steve Bannon’s “War Room” on Monday to discuss how the current childhood vaccination schedule is harmful to children’s health, said CHD’s presence at the roundtable was important.

“It was very significant for CHD to have a seat at the table at the briefing and also significant how much Sen. Johnson knew of and appreciated our work,” he said. “We have a much wider reach than we give ourselves credit for and I believe we’ll get more such invitations to speak to and influence congressional representatives.”

“Sen. Johnson and several others are highly energized regarding the woeful pandemic response, including the society-wide release of mRNA technology, with an astounding increase in vaccine adverse events,” Hooker added.
