Horseman Prof. Hotez connects the dots. SARS-CoV-2 persists and replicates in atheroschlerotic plaque. There are also immune changes triggered by infection. Risk for CV death increases. Soon Hotez will turn his attention to turbocancers.
"This study showing that severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus directly infects coronary artery plaques, producing inflammatory substances, really joins the dots and helps our understanding on why we're seeing so much heart disease in COVID patients," Peter Hotez, MD, professor of molecular virology and microbiology at Baylor College of Medicine in Houston, told Medscape.
Asked whether this direct infection of vascular plaques was unique to SARS-CoV-2 or whether this may also occur with other viruses, both Giannarelli and Hotez said they believe this may be a specific COVID effect.
"I wouldn't say it is likely that other viruses infect coronary arteries in this way, but I suppose it is possible," Giannarelli said.
Hotez pointed out that other viruses can cause inflammation in the heart, such as myocarditis. "But I can't think of another virus that stimulates the sequence of events in coronary artery inflammation like we're seeing here.
I ordered this, was charged in full August, although I was told I would be billed the membership, would have to have a 15 min consult with a doctor, which I scheduled, I hung on the link over one hour and a half, tried calling TWC on other lines before hanging up, as I wanted to know how long I should be on hold. I left numerous emails and I have a record of everything. I left many more voice messages until i gave up and wanted a full refund. At this point I don’t trust their company, and they neither delivered product, which I DO NOT WANT NOW, because I’m afraid of it, NOR HAVE THEY CREDITED MY VISA. DO NOT TRUST THE PEOPLE IN TWC OFFICE.
Thank you Your Honor, God I am so sorry, I haven’t been ill with this virus and I have only known a few colleagues who bounced back quickly. I do appreciate your quick response and I will keep you in my prayers Your Honor, God bless you.
You’re welcome Honorable Mazzarelli. Prayers and lots of prayers are what’s needed more than ever. It’s only my opinion. However and or whoever one believes in and or worships to, has always been fine with me.
We’re going through some rough times, no doubt and good wishes, prayers and simply all around respect for each other is such a critical part of rising out of and getting through, rough times.
May God keep you and your family, healthy and safe. I’ll certainly keep you in my prayers.
I’m so sorry to hear your illness your Honor. I do hope you’re back to feeling well very soon. ASAP and 100% soon. I haven’t spoken with anyone on Substack regarding their health issues and or symptoms, so this is a first for me. Please bear with me your Honor as I try to word this correctly. My question for you is, (if you don’t mind sharing, I certainly understand if you do mind so please don’t feel pressured in anyway your Honor). The reason this is so important for me is, I decided not to get the shot due to being “factor V” and “Lupus anticoagulant” positive. Aside from a one a day tablet, I haven’t had any problems for over 10 years. I haven’t missed a day of work since covid began. My job was considered “essential” therefore I haven’t stopped since. Also, I have not been tested because I haven’t been sick, at least not that I was aware of or determined to be. I am concerned about the above post by “AwakeNotWoke”, namely, “Coronary artery inflammation”. My question’s for you are;
1. Were you vaccinated? 2. Have you noticed any or felt any pressure around your heart? and 3. At any time when you weren’t Covid positive did you noticed any kind of “uneasy feeling” or pressure surrounding your heart? It seems some people don’t present obvious Covid symptoms and everything seems normal. This would describe me, except for this “uneasy heaviness”surrounding my heart. My Dr said it’s nothing to worry about and all my bloodwork is normal. I am waiting for an appointment with a heart doctor to dig deeper but not until August 2024. If you don’t mind and you can let me know if you noticed any type of pressure or an uneasy feeling, surrounding your heart? It’s difficult to describe and has varying comings and goings, it’s difficult to accurately describe. I do pray you are on the mend sooner rather than later. Thanks very much for your time and help your Honor. Your wellbeing is in my thoughts and prayers. Thank you very much again your Honor.

I did everything on my end to work this out, they refuse to return a call or an email. Avoid them like the plague!

Why doesn’t it contain POVODINE Iodine for a nasal wash ?
The medications they list are prescription-only. Povidone-iodine is available over-the-counter to anyone.
