Take the Bubonic plague…one would think a bacteria would be less deadly than a virus, right? I am not a scientist so please correct me if I am wrong in thinking that a bacteria would have less chance of spreading globally than a virus. I did some investigating, not trusting memes and such that I see posted here and there. My sources are listed so you can check them – please do!

BUBONIC PLAGUE: The Black Death (also known as the Pestilence, the Great Mortality, or the Plague)[a] was the deadliest pandemic recorded in human history. The Black Death resulted in the deaths of up to 75–200 million people in Eurasia and North Africa,[7] peaking in Europe from 1347 to 1351. Plague, the disease caused by the bacterium Yersinia pestis, was the cause;[8] Y. pestis infection most commonly results in bubonic plague but can cause septicaemic or pneumonic plague.[9] The Black Death was the beginning of the second plague pandemic.[10] The plague created religious, social, and economic upheavals, with profound effects on the course of European history.

Keep in mind Covid totals include stage four cancer patients, heart attack victims and people with other pre-existing conditions.

WHICH BRINGS ME TO A CURIOUS QUESTION: Why didn’t the world wear masks, socially distance, and close the schools in 2009? Why don’t schools close for the annual flu season? (perhaps some do shut down their entire school and I am not aware...)
Frankly, I am blessed to have a high-school student who is capable of handling on line schooling – she is disappointed in our local school board’s decision to go with online learning only for the first semester, but it shouldn't affect her pre-college grades.
However, there are many parents/children who have cause for great concern for the effective education of their child, not to mention their own job risks of having to choose between staying home or reporting back to work when called, risking loss of income. I’ve spoken with several and pray the best outcome for these families during this pandemic.
Everyone, especially families with children or elderly, should be concerned with boosting the immune system through lifestyle choices, don’t you agree? We cannot control global epidemics, but for the most part we do have control of what goes into our bodies. Environmental toxins play a huge role in the immune system imbalances. Feel free to send me an inquiry as to how bio-energetic testing can help your own immune system rebalance.
In love, peace and light,
