Someone asked me this question today:

So Tracy, what’s your solution to the global pandemic that we face today? Since the Pharmacutical Companies are a scam… B12 shot…

Here are my ramblings:

It’s not that I have a solution per say…I do have some belief that this was cultured in a lab and is actually being controlled by a group of people… who want to control the population because of the threat of global warming. It sounds far fetched I’m sure most people would think but there has been a lot of government crimes against humanity in the history of the world that one would also think sounds far fetched.

Like in the early 1900 when they had a mandatory vaccination for an alternate strain of the spanish flu and then more people died from the vaccination than from the flu itself…AND the pathetic thing was that no one or no organization was ever held accountable for that.

I guess my solution would be to educate people on what is really happening and how they can protect themselves. We really need to fight for our freedom.. I don’t know what I would do if there was a mandatory vaccination. I know I would fight tooth and nail to not get it and I would be extremely saddened that we really are not as free as we think we are.

I am also a true believer in natural remedies. I believe there is already a cure for cancer and many doctors and other professional out there know this and are practicing it. It’s just that most people are so blinded by media and what they’ve been told for the last 50+ years by doctors who are never trained in nutrition but spend years studying pharma, …and yet we still fork over millions to cancer research which eventually just funnels back into the pockets of the pharmaceuticals. I refuse to give to those types of charities.

One thing I’ve learned is you cannot help people that don’t want to help themselves. I have a family member who has type 1 diabetes and is basically living on insulin. I know that there are possibilities out there for her to be rid of (or at least be a lot less dependent) on insulin, but for some reason she doesn’t think it’s important enough to try something natural to help her live a longer, healthier life.

I do have a daily vitamin B12 shot but not in the form of an injection. I take two ounces of Ionix Supreme every day along with a number of other supplements. I also try to eat organic whenever possible. I stay away from processed & refined foods. I cleanse/detox 2 times a month.

As you can tell I am very passionate about this subject. Sorry for rambling.

Tracy

The first thing that comes to mind is: Pharmaceutical companies!

Is it possible that we may have a mandatory vaccination to “protect” us from this swine virus?

What do you think?
