Dear Dr. Mercola: I can only say you are so respected and loved for caring as deeply as you have demonstrated throughout this difficult time! I personally must bow out of intense involvement with resistance groups because it's such a deep subject with heinous crimes, it's more than I can take. But I will stick with your site and pray you can survive it. Shyla

I just wonder because by intermittently locking down and supposedly slowing the spread, are we giving the virus the time it needs to for more mutations? Instead of letting it run its natural course. Is there a correlation between states that have more lockdowns and virus variants?

OF COURSE THEY ARE!!! Mutation/change is the modus operandae of "survival"!!! What amazes me in all of this is that these "educated scientifics" are so stupid they believe that "we, the UNscientifically educated" are stupid enough to be unable to reason!!! Mutation (or change) is the very basis of Darwin's theory...if you don't change or adapt--YOU DIE!!!

Can you live in the tundra with no food, clothing or shelter? It too cannot survive in an hostile environment, an environment that is actually beneficial to your internal environment .... pH. Discover it.

I guess in the long run, it is here to stay and me, being an old conspiracy theorist must contain my anger that it was “man made” and the research paid for with my tax contributions! New World Order! ? I have my doubts. Throughout the history of the homo, there has always been the pusher of “we must reduce the population” elitist. A fear that the planet cannot sustain ‘so many’ and we do not need so many slaves.

100,000,000 ... amongst a population that has quadrupled in the past 50 years. So many mouths to feed, America has farmland, Brazil lets deforest it and create farmland ... the wave of 100,000,000 will soon be utilized. It is inevitable. One does not create such a machine and then not use it. Wars have always been used to reduce the numbers. Yes, I paint a bleak picture; but it is the vision I see through my eyes.

I do not speak the language and do not care to learn it. It is being taught in grade schools now, by teachers who are paid by the homeland government. Didn’t know that did you.

How do we know it mutated if we haven’t isolated/identified SARS/COV2?

Don't we learn in high school biology that this is what these things do?

If it is true that the virus has mutated several times already within the span of a year or two and that this is the nature of the virus then their is a certain amount of futility with a vaccine strategy that mirrors Wile E Coyote attempting to catch up to the Road Runner. Flu vaccines try to predict the strain of flu but if it fails to then the vaccine strategy fails and gains much criticism. It is said that the flu vaccine in a good year at best works 50% of the time which means what do we do about the other 50% that it don't work on? In a situation where the mutations render vaccine effectiveness much less than expected then a vaccine offers a false sense of security to the majority and other planned strategies are necessitated that do not involve vaccines such as therapeutics from an MD and natural solutions for those who have some confidence. For those with no or lots of health knowledge I would consider a plan A... then a B .... and a C if you have the ability and have thought about viruses and their weaknesses.

The “experts” might want to isolate the virus, develop a reliable test, but above all, prove that viral infection exists.

If viruses exist, how is it that - for example - people wash themselves, and drink water from the Ganges in Varanasi and do not get sick and do not die because of it? In that water are decaying corpses (of humans and animals), feces and urine, etc. What is the scientific explanation?

The so-called viruses are a product of the body that removes particles, in order to clean itself (especially due to chemical, electromagnetic stress), through perspiration, expiration, urine, etc. These particles are dead, or die on contact with air, sunlight, the environment outside the body. Each of these particles bears the absolutely unique signature of individual DNA and cannot be combined with other DNA. We live in a 'soup' of micro-organisms, bacteria, fungi, particles - which are in the air, in water or on any surface, but all these are not viruses. If an organism fails to eliminate enough toxins, an imbalance occurs, which is called a disease. The destruction of the microbiome is the hidden purpose of these masks and the use of so many chemical disinfectants and "purification" devices ... And when the microbiome is destroyed, there is an imbalance between the body and the environment in which it lives.

The issue about the washing their hands, social distancing and wearing masks. There is currently no conclusive evidence for fomite or direct contact transmission of SARS-CoV-2 in humans. Washing of or continious sanitation of hands or surfaces is questionable. Masking in the general-population provides no detectable benefit. I would reccomend that the document by Prof Denis Rancourt is considerd. Measures do not prevent deaths, transmission is not by contact, masks provide no benefit, vaccines are inherently dangerous: Review update of recent science relevant to COVID-19 policy Denis G. Rancourt, PhD Researcher, Ontario Civil Liberties Association (ocla.ca) Member scientist, PANDA (pandata.org) [ See DOI: 10.13140/RG.2.2.21706.18885] Then have a look at Xiao J, Shiu E, Gao H, et al. Nonpharmaceutical Measures for Pandemic Influenza in Nonhealthcare Settings—Personal Protective and Environmental Measures. Emerging Infectious Diseases. 2020;26(5):967-975. doi:10.3201/eid2605.190994.

Excerpt fm Abstract. There were 3 influenza pandemics in the 20th century, and there has been 1 so far in the 21st century. Local, national, and international health authorities regularly update their plans for mitigating the next influenza pandemic in light of the latest available evidence on the effectiveness of various control measures in reducing transmission. Here, we review the evidence base on the effectiveness of nonpharmaceutical personal protective measures and environmental hygiene measures in nonhealthcare settings and discuss their potential inclusion in pandemic plans. Although mechanistic studies support the potential effect of hand hygiene or face masks, evidence from 14 randomized controlled trials of these measures did not support a substantial effect on transmission of laboratory-confirmed influenza. "We similarly found limited evidence on the effectiveness of improved hygiene and environmental cleaning."

Vaccines are not the only way to beat the problem of mutating viruses.

RNA is more prone to mutation than DNA because it is not coiled and protected in a double strand. This whole mutant variants is just a narrative to instill fear. There have always been variants. Remember in April 2020 when the NY state officials said the NY cases came from Europe via Italy, which was a different than the Chinese strain. But since December/January they are using the idea of new strains to stoke fear to maintain/increase lockdowns and travel bans.
