We had an instance back in 2019/2020 where a cruise ship had a number sick passengers (and if memory serves a few deaths) from the "Coronavirus".

Not sure how the virus made it from Wuhan to the cruise ship but then if the medical world is to be believed these pesky viruses (or should that more properly be virii?) get everywhere in no time flat.

Now in 2026 we have a reported instance of a rat virus on a cruise ship which one may suppose similarly threatens the world, rather in the same way as the earlier SARS scares, Monkeypox and whatever else never took off in the public imagination. 

Is it too early for a vaccine?

Mark Playne has been crunching the AI to reveal what the ghost in the machines makes of it all.

Does it reveal a cosmic truth?

The alliance of Big Government with Big Corporations is an inherently powerful beast that does all it can to ensure that we the people feel that we have to comply with its policies.

Those policies are presented as though they work in our favour, but if that were the case, what need for coercion? We would be queuing up for their product. Indeed, many do exactly that because we cannot believe that Big G and Big C could collaborate (illegally) against our interests - that would be preposterous. As indeed, it is.

The USA has taken coercion a long way in specific states, less far in others, with (weirdly) "religious exemptions" being a particular battlefront. In the UK (aside from Covid) we do seem to be free to disagree to a much greater extent than in the "land of the free" USA, but SPI-B turned out to be a dab hand at dishing out the psychological pressure to comply.

So whilst this article is probably more

The body has more than one immune system.

I'm not going to speculate about how many, but it's way more than one, depending on how you differentiate individual reactions or groups of reactions from systems.

The "second" immune system implements ketosis as an alternate way of powering itself - instead of using carbohydrates, it uses stored fat. Well, that's the (very) simplified explanation anyway. 

It's a good way to "lose weight" - but "weight" here needs to be qualified...

Fat is also where the body will stash toxins that it can't for whatever reason immediately excrete. Overweight people may have a lot of toxins trapped temporarily but safely in their fat but as that fat is used for energy, in my understanding the toxins come back into circulation... and will cause problems such as aches and pains until the body can excrete

My general rule is that if a word is made up to be nothing like natural language and you have to scan each letter to check out how to pronounce it (and even then you are unsure), then it's a medical product (or maybe a food additive) that I don't need.

So what are the "five top-selling GLP-1 drugs in the United States — Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro, Trulicity, and Zepbound"?

"GLP-1"?

Unnecessary? Dangerous? God's gift to the terminally deluded who despite all the evidence still believe that Big Government, Regulators, and Big Pharma all work selflessly together for our happiness health longevity and quality of life?

"... the same five structural features operating across every substance. Industrial manufacture disguised as nature. Deficiency defined by tests built to sell products. A cofactor cascade where each supplement creates the need for the next... "

Time to reconsider what we are taking in?

Many people (myself included) like a cup of coffee in the morning.

But do we get the best out of it?

Well, getting the very best may be a bit more complicated than we can all manage without working at it, but I suspect that the results may be exceptional (if paired with healthy eating habits... ).

Here's a young lady ("Doctor Leanna") who explains her view of what to do. But it's a bit complex, so don't get discouraged - start with one thing at a time and incorporate into your usual morning routine over time.

NB: Remember that "Perfection is the enemy of Progress"!
