There is so much fake stuff being circulated, it's important to read something trustworthy. The article below was compiled by several doctors who are ticked off at what they're seeing. I think you'll find it to be good info in an easy-to-read, true/false format.
I'm not expecting the Rapture to happen anytime soon. It might, but based on what I understand in Scripture, I just don't see it. I do think this could be a test to see how far the global agenda can go in controlling people.
I believe we'll eventually get past this shutdown but will lose some freedoms and mobility in the future. I certainly could be wrong and many disagree with me. Could happen 50 days after Easter, June 1, or Rosh Hashanah, September 18. But again, I don't think so ... Steel on steel—a wise person has many counselors!
So if we do make it past Friday, September 18, we'll have more time to reach a fallen world with the Good News.
I don't believe this shutdown is about a virus; rather, it's about gaining CONTROL of people in the future. Does that make me a conspiracy theorist? If so, I'm only guilty of believing the Bible which says Satan will eventually get control of the entire earth. So watching a ramp-up to this control should be expected—call it what you want.
And I think it's interesting that these global government-pushers are trying to get to a mandated vaccine that everyone must have in order to travel, bank, and buy gas and food. And the non-Believer Bill Gates has said that the vaccine should have an invisible mark that can be read by a smart phone in order to prove a person has the vaccine.(1)
Well, that's VERY interesting from a Biblical standpoint. The Bible clearly says a "mark" will be used, not a chip.
"And he causes all, the small and the great, and the rich and the poor, and the free men and the slaves, to be given a mark on their right hand or on their forehead, and he provides that no one will be able to buy or to sell, except the one who has the mark, either the name of the beast or the number of his name. Rev. 13:16-17
The word "mark" in the Greek means "an imprinted mark" or "a stamp."
God would have used a different word if He wanted to convey inserting something under the skin.
So Biblically, the "mark of the virus" lines up better than a "chip" that's inserted under the skin. I can see the whole world with the coveted mark far more easily than the entire world with a computer chip.
Gates is a well-known proponent of global population control and is knee deep into vaccines.(2) The Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation funded a vaccine test in two countries in Africa recently. It is estimated that 500,000 young girls were sterilized due to the vaccine they received.(3)
They later determined that there were ingredients in the African vaccines that caused the sterilizations. WHO originally denied this, but later admitted it to be true.
So I obviously don't feel comfortable watching this unchecked single-focused push for a national vaccine. Especially one that is traceable. I don't trust the WHO, FDA or Fauci, as recent history shows they're all heavily influenced by Big Pharma.(4)
The upside to all this is that it's exciting to watch all the fulfillment of prophetic Scripture. But, I THINK, as is their usual MO, they'll go forward two steps with their global agenda and then pull back one.
They have to stop soon because there's simply too much resistance from Believers to continue forward, because the Holy Spirit is still present on earth illuminating evil.
I'm sure a lot of you are thinking, "The Rapture would take out any resistance from Believers so we could be close." Yes, I could be wrong. I just know God's in control of the calendar and this political virus agenda won't go forward unless it fits His calendar.
I wholeheartedly believe God put President Trump in office to stymie Satan's efforts. That's what he's been doing for three years. So I expect Satan's followers will either be revealed as to what they're trying to do or President Trump will out-maneuver them. Either way, I think he'll be reelected.
So when you read the article below, keep in mind the "Satan vs. God" component that's missing from their analysis.(5)

(This was forwarded to me from a college friend of mine who lives in Alabama. It’s an expose’ from a group of fed-up doctors on the front line in East Alabama, including Dr. Dale Christensen and Dr. David Williams—it has incredible info regarding Covid-19!)
This is being written on April 19, 2020. Although there is a central author, it is being written on behalf of multiple physicians in West Alabama and will be distributed through multiple medical offices.
Between us we have well over a hundred years of practice and have treated hundreds of thousands of patients suffering infectious diseases. Including mission trips we have treated patients on five continents.
We planned this date for several reasons. First, most of our patients now realize there is something “funny” about the coverage and handling of this disease. Secondly, if it wasn’t being handled differently by April 19, we knew it would take action from us and our patients to change that handling.
Finally, we were told in March by our state officials that experts predicted New York, Florida, Texas, and Alabama were projected to have the median most fatalities from the COVID-19 outbreak with the peak in Alabama expected to be April 19. On this date, Alabama was supposed to be on pace for 5,516 deaths and be short over 21,000 hospital beds.
The information just listed, and every piece of information discussed below, can be verified with a quick internet search. Many of the sources will be directly referenced.
So here goes:
TRUTH:
COVID-19 is an actual medical disease that will lead to tragic deaths.
Although this seems obvious, it should be clear that no one involved wishes to express anything but sympathy to those affected and their families.
Respiratory failure is a terrible way to die. That's true whether the death is due to asthma, COPD, pneumonia, influenza, smoke inhalation, cystic fibrosis, ALS, or COVID-19.
LIE:
“We don’t know much about coronavirus.”
This is one of the media’s favorite lies. It’s much scarier if it is unknown. We know that coronavirus is a zoonotic disease. In other words, it’s natural hosts are birds and animals as opposed to humans. We vaccinate domestic animals for them. We know that four forms cause colds every year. We know it mutates and evolves just like the flu. We know it sometimes becomes deadly as it has in SARS and MERS. We’ve done medical studies on coronavirus as a coexisting illness in patients in the past.
LIE:
“COVID-19 is more infectious than influenza.”
This is one of two lies most often quoted by the millions who call national radio programs or post on social media. It's amazing how many people with absolutely no medical training somehow feel qualified to comment on this disease.
Now, we want to be more fair than the national media so we are obligated to report there will never be a study where 1,000 people eat after people with the flu and 1,000 others eat after people with COVID-19 to see which one is more infectious. But the evidence is overwhelming.
COVID-19 was first identified late December/early January. A little over three-and-a-half months in, we have slightly over 2 million confirmed cases globally.
By comparison, according to the National Center for Biotechnology Information (Google Influenza Update- NCBI), influenza is responsible for up to a billion infections annually.
Flu season is basically from the start of October until April. At the flu’s three and a half month mark, that works out to 583 million cases globally. Even accounting for the fact COVID-19 is under-reported that is a HUGE difference.
However, there is even further evidence influenza is more infectious. Drawing from our own (meaning everyone reading this) experiences, when influenza gets started in a daycare or elementary school, they often have to be closed for a short time because otherwise everyone gets it.
All the kids, workers, teachers, and parents. The most students in one class we could remember was 23 of 25 out at the same time with the flu. Certainly, daycare classes in both Tuscaloosa and Jefferson counties have been closed this year.
Contrast that to what you know about coronavirus. The NBA tested hundreds of players, staff, and media to come up with 14 cases. The vast majority did not contract the virus at all.
The most extreme case in terms of possible COVID-19 exposure we could find was the aircraft carrier USS Theodore Roosevelt. If you have never toured a military ship, space is at a premium. Very tight and crowded conditions. Secondary to this, hundreds of crew would become infected.
So 4,800 men and women were exposed to multiple individuals with the virus several times a day, day after day. Despite that constant exposure, 4,140 (or over 86%) of those sailors would never even contract the disease.
To address the possible rebuttals, it is absolutely true we don’t know the true number of COVID-19 cases. It doesn’t make the average person under 60 sick so we will never account for all of those.
However, it doesn’t even infect the average person with a healthy immune system who comes in contact with it, so the number can only be so high.
It’s true that testing has not been available everywhere the entire three-and-a-half months but we are making up for that by testing generously now. Locally, DCH had tested 3,105 by April 17, 2,958 of which were negative.
LIE:
“COVID-19 is more dangerous than influenza.”
The second lie of the medically uninformed. Even among those who do contract COVID-19, most under 60, including virtually everyone under 21, will never know they had it.
On the USS Theodore Roosevelt, 60% were asymptomatic (showing no symptoms). Of the 2 million people who have tested positive for COVID-19 globally, most have had mild to no symptoms.
By the three-and-half month mark of flu season, the flu had resulted in over 2 million severe cases requiring hospitalization. Influenza results in 290,000 to 670,000 deaths annually. COVID-19 deaths will be discussed below.
LIE:
“The fact one doesn’t know he or she has COVID-19 makes it more dangerous.”
All viruses shed and are primarily spread while the infected host is asymptomatic. Repeat, all viruses do this.
We use the term virulence to describe how dangerous a virus is. The more virulent, the more likely to cause infection or more severe symptoms.
One’s chance of becoming infected with anything is multifactorial. In other words, lots of things come into play. The infectiousness and quantity of the pathogen comes into play. Your level of rest, nutrition, stress, age, and general health come into play as well. In the case of influenza, if you contract it you are going to get sick.
There will never be a time where the NBA tests hundreds of players and staff to find 14 cases of influenza – two with mild symptoms and twelve with no symptoms.
If you get influenza, even if you are Michael Jordan (who had perhaps the most famous flu game of all time), you are going to know. That’s because the flu is so virulent that in 24 to 48 hours it overwhelms even the immune system of a healthy adult and you develop symptoms.
But in that 24 hours it is multiplying, everyone around you is at risk. Depending on the exact exposure, the risk goes from high probability to certainty of contracting.
For instance, if a high school student kisses their boyfriend or girlfriend during that day, they are getting the flu, period.
But COVID-19 is so much less virulent it usually never overcomes the immune system of a healthy adult. Yes, they will spread this virus for up to 2 weeks, but most people around them still won’t get it.
TRUTH:
“COVID-19 is more dangerous to the elderly and immunocompromised.”
That truth really doesn’t mean anything in and of itself because everything is more dangerous to those unfortunate individuals. It does mean we should try to protect those individuals from infections in general.
TRUTH:
“It’s now almost impossible for anyone in the general public or general medical community to know the actual number of deaths from COVID-19.”
That is because sometime in March US hospitals started testing all ER patients and every patient who died, regardless of cause of death, for COVID-19. Those patients are being included by the media in COVID-19 death tolls. Yes, a victim of a car accident brought to a US ER who passes away will be tested for COVID-19.
Two of the most egregious examples of misrepresentation involve infants. One of the fascinating things about coronaviruses from a medical standpoint is children are almost universally immune to deleterious effects.
A study from back in 2004-2005 was conducted in which swabs were done in both controls and children hospitalized for respiratory illness. The incidence of coronavirus was the same for controls and hospitalized children and the conclusion was HCoV (coronavirus) infection was not associated with hospitalization or with increased severity of illness in those hospitalized due to other infections. (Search NIH if you want to review these findings.)
Obviously, COVID-19 is not included in that study since it was first identified recently. However, COVID-19 has not been associated with pediatric illness anywhere. Not China, South Korea, Italy, or Spain.
So on March 29 when BuzzFeed.News and an Illinois paper, The Guardian, led with the headline “The First Infant Has Died In The US After Testing Positive For The Coronavirus,” it caught our attention.
The article goes on to say the infant’s death was announced by Governor JB Pritzker and, depending on which article you read, either Pritzker, or Dr. Ngozi Ezike, director of the Illinois Department of Public Health, said: “If you haven’t been paying attention (to COVID-19), maybe this is your wake-up call.”
On April 2, CBS News reported Connecticut Governor Ned Lamont had announced “It is with heartbreaking sadness today that we can confirm the first pediatric fatality in Connecticut linked to COVID-19.” He went on to say it was likely one of the youngest deaths from the disease “anywhere.”
The problem is neither death has actually been attributed to COVID-19. On April 3, the Hartford Courant correctly clarified that all patients who die in Connecticut hospitals were being tested for the virus, regardless of manner of death, and that Connecticut’s Chief Medical Examiner had not ruled COVID-19 to be the infant’s cause of death.
Just yesterday, April 18, NBC 5 Chicago reported Chicago Department of Public Health Commissioner Dr. Allison Arwady said it is preliminarily believed the infant in Illinois did not die from coronavirus.
New York is also a source of great misinformation. On March 22, Sky News ran footage of a hospital in Italy. On March 25, CBS This Morning ran the same footage. However, they claimed it was filmed in New York.
Citizen reporters by the dozens have recorded empty testing tents and idle ambulance crews when the national media has reported hours long waits at the same testing sites and overstretched ambulance crews. (You should be able to find those videos at www.missdanaashlie.com.)
On April 14, the New York Times reported New York City officials at the Health Department had increased its death toll by 3,700 who NEVER TESTED POSITIVE for the virus. They were simply “presumed” to have died from it.
TRUTH:
“The current policies instituted by our local, state, and national governments are causing greater health problems than the virus ever will.”
According to the Wall Street Journal, 22 million Americans have filed for unemployment in just four weeks. When you consider spouses and children, it seems reasonable that up to 70 million Americans would be affected by that number.
Staying at home is not without consequence. Those individuals are at significantly higher risk of depression, suicide, domestic abuse, and other mental health issues. The stress is making them more likely to become ill from all manner of disease.
Many have lost their insurance. Some will become divorced. Hundreds of thousands of medical procedures have been cancelled or delayed.
There is another threat to our health. Rural hospitals have closed in large numbers is recent years. The situation with COVID-19 has placed many more community hospitals of all sizes at risk. Most are relatively empty and are bleeding cash.
TRUTH:
“The media as a whole has grossly misrepresented this disease.”
We felt if we used the word “deliberately” we may have to present this as an opinion, but it sure appears deliberate. A couple of national examples include the CBS This Morning story referenced above and yesterday’s CNN story. The headline read “Jacksonville beach packed as Florida coronavirus cases hit record” and they ran a photo taken in the past of a Los Angeles County beach to show the crowd.
Locally, on April 14, local news outlets used the headline, “Mayor Walt Maddox to Pitch Plan to Re-open Tuscaloosa on April 28th.” While not technically untrue, that sounds like the plan is to re-open the city on April 28th. In reality, it should have read, “On April 28, Mayor Walt Maddox to Pitch Plan to Re-open Tuscaloosa,” because no plan is even to be presented until April 28.
A Tuscaloosa News headline today read “Prison system reports COVID-19 death.” You had to read the article to find the 66 year-old victim was already terminally ill and had been hospitalized since April 4th in critical care for his preexisting conditions. He only tested positive on the last day of his life.
OPINION:
“The way in which the media has pushed fear nonstop amounts to psychological warfare against this country.”
If it hasn’t occurred to you that we have heard one story and essentially one story alone for literally two months, well, that should have aroused suspicion.
TRUTH:
“The media will continue to fight reopening of this country by stating “experts” predict a spike in deaths if we do so.”
We would assume those are the same experts who initially predicted 2.2 million US deaths, revised to 200,000, then 100,000, then 60,000, then ordered testing all US deaths just in case they had coronavirus because we weren’t on pace for even 30,000 prior to that change in policy.
TRUTH:
“Not every country has shut down their economy, and none of those countries have suffered higher rates of death because they have kept their economy going.”
One of the searches done prior to putting this together related to countries who kept their businesses open. One of the lowest mortality rates in the entire world is Japan, who fits that description.
Looking for the country with the highest mortality rate and an open economy, we came across an article with a very liberal bent that described two Scandinavian countries. It described how uncaring Sweden was as it conducted business as usual while Denmark cared for its’ people and shut down.
The expected mortality rate for Sweden was 69 per million whereas Denmark was 39 per million. If you take 69 and multiply it by 340 (for 340 million people in the United States) it comes out to 23,640, or about 15,000 fewer people than we are expected to lose to the flu this year.
OPINION:
“Medical organizations have failed this country.”
Literally every doctor in America should know everything listed above. So why haven’t organizations like the AMA and AAFP, as well as state organizations, presented this information to their governors and the President?
TRUTH:
“China is involved, but not how you think.”
We can not tell you how many times people have expressed consternation about not knowing what China is hiding. Generally, they feel it is horrific death numbers or the genesis story of the virus.
China withheld information about the virulence of COVID-19. They knew they had cases of asymptomatic individuals, possibly hundreds of thousands such patients. By not including this data it changed the mortality rate greatly.
Initial terror regarding COVID-19 was a 4% mortality rate in China. Most would now concede the mortality rate is less than 0.2% given the high number of asymptomatic patients.
Meanwhile, the Chinese are buying property in affected areas, particularly Italy, and likely not unhappy with what is happening in America given their trade battles with President Trump.
TRUTH:
“The NBA cancelled their season voluntarily, with no external domestic pressures, and China is a huge market for them.”
The NBA’s financial interests in China were threatened after a single tweet from Houston GM Daryl Morey in October supporting Hong Kong protestors.
After literally a single runny nose, the NBA cancelled their season and proceeded to test hundreds of healthy individuals looking for COVID-19. We find it fascinating no one in the media, and certainly no one at ESPN, has asked questions about that behavior.
TRUTH:
“People are lazy, or they have an agenda.”
Not only did the media not ask pertinent questions about the NBA, they have not reached out to knowledgeable health professionals even when they were provided the names and contacts of such individuals.
If the narrative did not fit COVID-19 terror, it was ignored. We know this has happened both locally and nationally. Local, state, and national politicians have done the same thing. All of the information here is readily available.
So if any elected official has said anything along the lines of “as a leader, I feel a responsibility to keep people safe,” to support restrictions on you or local businesses, ask that official what research he or she was basing his or her decision on.
The general public is lazy. They read headlines. Grossly misleading headlines. So when you pass this on, you will have to insist people actually read the whole thing.
TRUTH:
“Amazon founder Jeff Bezos is making a fortune, and he wants you to stay home.”
In addition to owning Amazon, he owns the Washington Post. Just read any headline or article it has ever written regarding a plan to reopen the economy. Do with that information what you will, but we hope it means you stop ordering from Amazon and support local businesses instead.
TRUTH:
“COVID-19 has been treated like a world-ender; But it’s not even remotely close.”
As mentioned earlier, it has infected just over 2 million people in the world. Not killed 2 million people. Actually, not even made 2 million sick. Just infected.
So it is 76 million short of infecting 1% of the world’s population. It’s 998 million short of infecting as many as influenza has this year, the vast majority of which are sicker than the average coronavirus patient. The world has never shut down for any disease before. And it chose this one to do so?
TRUTH:
“Quarantine is a period or place of isolation in which people who have been exposed or infected with a contagious disease are placed.”
The government has used “quarantine” to impose shelter in place on healthy individuals and close businesses. There are words for that, but quarantine is not one of those words.
TRUTH:
“This is not a medical crisis, but a political crisis.”
There is a saying in politics, “never waste a crisis,” and this is apparently true even if the crisis is fabricated. We briefly debated leaving out politics, but the reality is most have already figured this out and there is no explaining the phenomenon that is COVID-19 hysteria without talking politics.
In short, Democrats attempted to impeach Trump late in 2019 and failed. Shortly after a State of the Union address in which he touted considerable economic success, COVID-19 was made front and center by the media.
Most probably feel both parties have failed us but there is no debating which party is most responsible for pushing the fear. Every time President Trump argues for reopening, the press and the Democrats gnash their teeth and talk higher death tolls.
The governors of Illinois and Connecticut who incorrectly reported infant deaths are Democrat. Michigan governor Gretchen Whitmer, who has gone so far as to restrict her state’s residents from mowing their lawns and planting flowers, is a Democrat.
Louisiana governor John Bel Edwards, who threatened to permanently take licenses from open businesses and organize a special police task force to arrest anyone in groups of more than ten, is a Democrat.
Mayor Walt Maddox, Mayor of Tuscaloosa, Alabama since 2005, is a Democrat. He told us in March that if he did nothing Tuscaloosa County would experience 3,686 deaths due to COVID-19.
Think about that for just a second. It was first identified in Wuhan, China, a city of over 11 million people. China has a population of 1.4 billion and at the time of his presentation, COVID-19 had killed a little over 3,200 in the entire country.
Tuscaloosa County has a population of just under 184,000 and is considerably less densely populated than Wuhan, China. That number is not only meant to do nothing except incite fear but indicates a serious lack of insight and judgement.
TRUTH:
“The Alabama coronavirus numbers presented in the opening paragraph appear to be way off. We are nowhere near 5,000 deaths.”
In fact, Alabama currently has only 4,700 total cases and 113 deaths. Tuscaloosa County has yet to experience a single death. DCH reports five or fewer inpatients in the ICU (they will only report units of five to protect privacy) being treated for COVID-19 with five or fewer on ventilators.
Again, every such patient is significant, but we are thankful the numbers are so small. While we recognize some may feel those numbers are smaller due to social distancing and/or shelter in place orders, COVID-19 numbers have not been affected by those behaviors when compared to countries where they were not employed.
TRUTH:
If you love your children, enjoy sports, or know anyone who owns or is employed by a small business you should be angry. Very angry.
We can absolutely take steps to protect the elderly and vulnerable, but everything should reopen immediately. Millions of high school seniors have been deprived graduations and proms.
Millions of high school athletes have lost their spring season. Thousands of NCAA athletes have lost the same. Some will permanently lose their programs altogether due to financial issues associated with the coronavirus response.
Your kids are at home when they should be with their teachers and classmates. Your neighbors have been prevented from working and businesses built over decades or generations have been lost or threatened. Absolutely NONE of it was or is necessary.
TRUTH:
Nothing will change unless it is demanded.
Seriously, take this, forward it, repost it, and act on it. It will have to happen nationwide. Call mayors, governors, representatives, senators. Call back the next day. Email them. Email these facts. Verify for yourself which facts you are comfortable utilizing. BE AGGRESSIVE! Call radio stations, TV stations, national news outlets. Send it to medical organizations like the AMA and AAFP. It needs to happen by the thousands. They clearly aren’t paying attention. Or they assume you aren’t.”
END
