The results showed a positive association between COVID-19 deaths and IVR of people ≥65 years-old. There is a significant increase in COVID-19 deaths from eastern to western regions in the world.

At 4 years follow-up, the HPV vaccines decreased HPV-related cancer precursors and treatment procedures but increased serious nervous system disorders (exploratory analysis) and general harms.

AIMSIB reports “COVID serious, admit the existence of facilitating antibodies”
The phenomenon of facilitating viral infections by antibodies exists for many viruses including coronaviruses. Instead of behaving as described by classical immunology (protective effect), antibodies allow the virus to penetrate target cells more easily. This mechanism could make a future vaccine against Covid-19 dangerous: this effect was demonstrated in animal tests with SARS1 vaccine candidates…
