When we feel poorly about something or someone it is said we have ‘ill will’ and when we feel sick it is said we are ‘dis-eased’. The is critical to understand when addressing public health concerns. In the last month there have been reports of a mysterious dog illness that cannot be detected, isolated, or identified, but someone can be labeled infectious. In fact, health officials in Arizona literally made up the disease called ‘Undetermined Canine Infectious Respiratory Disease Complex’. Since early November, like late 2019, the world has also been introduced to ‘mystery’ illnesses around the world. In China and Europe it is a “mysterious pneumonia” that also goes by the names “white lung syndrome”, “glass lung”, and the sci-fi-sounding mycoplasma pneumonia. The WHO is thus calling on China and its people to do the following: ‘recommended vaccination; keeping distance from people who are ill; staying home when ill; getting tested and medical care as needed; wearing masks as appropriate; ensuring good ventilation; and regular hand-washing’. There is no mention, however, that cigarets, air pollution, stress, and masks could cause the symptoms of this pneumonia, which are essentially only inflamed lungs - it is well known that masks can cause what is called ‘bacterial pneumonia’.

Unlike the last pandemic, this illness is mainly targeting children and so the propaganda against resistance is amplified into ‘don’t you want to protect the kids?’. How convenient it is then that in October 2022, Johns Hopkins and the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation ran a table top exercise on a pneumonia that… targets children. The ‘mystery’ here makes it even more scary, even though it is a standard pneumonia. Perhaps the most important point of it all is that mass hysteria can cause illness, as documented in 2006 with a Portugal TV show that sent young people to the hospital with symptoms of a fictitious disease that didn’t exist. When factoring in how China lies through videos, pictures, and reports, and how most Asian cultures are quick to visit doctors and listen to authority, all it takes is some simple propaganda to send everyday people flocking to hospitals.
