Viruses & Diabetes

ByKaren Early

“One of the most fascinating things to come out of this study so far was actually a bit of a lucky break (for science, not for Mike). Over the course of the experiment, Mike developed type 2 diabetes. And not only did we get to pretty much watch this happen in real time, but we also got to see that it might have been caused in a totally unexpected way—a respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) infection. To my knowledge, this is the first time the progression to type 2 diabetes has been seen to be caused by a virus and also seen in such detail.”

    We revealed that fenbendazole markedly suppressed proliferation rate via cell cycle arrest. Cell cycle progression is elaborately regulated by multiple genes, such as cyclins and cyclin-dependent kinases (CDKs). From a screening of cell cycle-related factors, we found that the protein levels of CDK1 phosphorylated at Tyr15 and cyclin B1 which was known to regulate M…

Meanwhile, mortality rates per 100,000 are lowest among unvaccinated 18 to 39-year-olds and highest among vaccinated 19 to 39-year-olds. This alarming trend is echoed by a secret…

    Enquiring minds want to know. “If the vaccines work, why would all of those people inoculated still be susceptible to getting the disease? “ “If vaccines are so “safe and effective,” why has the vaccine court paid out $4 billion in damages over the past couple decades?

    Another study. A significant rise in carbon dioxide occurring while wearing a mask is scientifically proven in many studies, especially for N95-masks (Table 2) due to their higher deadspace and breathing resistance [[48]]. Possible toxicity of chronic carbon dioxide exposure associated with face mask use, particularly in pregnant women, children and adolescents “Fresh air has…
