CDC’s Guidance for Certifying COVID-19 Deaths NOT Accurate — No Virus Testing, Only “Suspected” Cause Required [Video]

This article is copyrighted by GreenMedInfo LLC, 2020Visit our Re-post guidelines In this revealing interview, Dr. Scott Jensen, explains that the CDC’s present guidelines for determining “COVID-19 deaths” are not evidence-based, and may even have to do with the greater profitability of doing so. His testimony runs directly counter Dr. Fauci, who labeled …

Vitamin D deficiency and acute lung injury.

PMID: Inflamm Allergy Drug Targets. 2013 Aug ;12(4):253-61. PMID: 23782208 Abstract Title: Vitamin D deficiency and acute lung injury. Abstract: Acute Lung Injury (ALI) and the more severe form Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS) remain a significant cause of morbidity and mortality in the critically ill patient. It is characterised by a severe inflammatory process …

Accumulating evidence suggests that vitamin D deficiency is linked to excess mortality.

PMID: Curr Opin Clin Nutr Metab Care. 2009 Nov ;12(6):634-9. PMID: 19710612 Abstract Title: Vitamin D deficiency and mortality. Abstract: PURPOSE OF REVIEW: To summarize recent findings on vitamin D deficiency and mortality. The serum concentration of 25-hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH)D], the metabolic precursor of the vitamin D hormone calcitriol, is the standard for assessing vitamin …

Vitamin D prevents experimental lung fibrosis and predicts survival in patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis.

PMID: Pulm Pharmacol Ther. 2019 04 ;55:17-24. Epub 2019 Jan 16. PMID: 30659895 Abstract Title: Vitamin D prevents experimental lung fibrosis and predicts survival in patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis. Abstract: BACKGROUND: Vitamin D (VitD) is a steroid hormone with cytoprotective and anti-inflammatory properties. Epidemiological studies have suggested a link between VitD deficiency and risk …

Vitamin D deficiency is common in severe sepsis.

PMID: Crit Care Med. 2017 Feb ;45(2):282-289. PMID: 27632669 Abstract Title: Vitamin D Deficiency in Human and Murine Sepsis. Abstract: OBJECTIVES: Vitamin D deficiency has been implicated as a pathogenic factor in sepsis and ICU mortality but causality of these associations has not been demonstrated. To determine whether sepsis and severe sepsis are associated with …
