What is a \u201ctripledemic\u201d, you ask?<\/p>\n<p>Apparently, it\u2019s when we have simultaneous pandemics of influenza, Covid and RSV at the same time. At least, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.latimes.com\/california\/story\/2022-11-04\/tripledemic-of-flu-rsv-and-covid-is-feared-in-california\">according to the LA Times<\/a>:<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\">A \u2018tripledemic\u2019 of flu, RSV and COVID is feared in California<\/p>\n<p>And <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theatlantic.com\/health\/archive\/2022\/11\/covid-flu-season-twindemic-tripledemic-2022\/672041\/\">the Atlantic<\/a>:<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\">What a \u2018Tripledemic\u2019 Means for Your Body<\/p>\n<p>And <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/news\/tripledemic-health-care-professionals-rsv-virus-hospitals-stockpile\/\">CBS<\/a>:<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\">\u201cTripledemic\u201d in U.S. could bring deluge of patients to hospitals<\/p>\n<p>All three stories \u2013 and there are many <a href=\"https:\/\/www.today.com\/health\/tripledemic-winter-2022-states-hit-hardest-rcna55983\">others<\/a> out there too \u2013 hit the same handful of talking points.<\/p>\n<p>They report that the flu is back after its \u201cmysterious\u201d disappearance during the Covid \u201cpandemic\u201d (the Alantic notes US flu cases reduced by well over 90% and calls it \u201cgetting lucky\u201d, the doublethink is unbelievable).<\/p>\n<p>They also warn that Covid is \u201cstill around\u201d or \u201cnot over\u201d, or some variation on that them.<\/p>\n<p>However, the main thrust of the fear is reserved for RSV. Now, you\u2019re all probably more than familiar with \u201cflu\u201d. And you\u2019re definitely tired of hearing about Covid. But RSV could be a new one for you\u2026so let me explain.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>The virus<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) is \u00a0\u2013 according to virus theory \u2013 one of the many viruses circulating in the general population at all times. To quote the Mayo Clinic\u2019s website [emphasis added]:<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\">Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) causes infections of the lungs and respiratory tract. <strong>It\u2019s so common that most children have been infected with the virus by age 2<\/strong>. Respiratory syncytial (sin-SISH-ul) virus can also infect adults. In adults and older, healthy children, <strong>RSV symptoms are mild and typically mimic the common cold.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>And according to the CDC:<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\">Almost all children will have had an RSV infection by their second birthday [\u2026] Most RSV infections go away on their own in a week or two.<\/p>\n<p>So, according to official sources, RSV is not serious in the vast majority of cases, and almost all of us have already had it.<\/p>\n<p>In fact, seeing as the symptoms are both generic and mild, the odds are you have had it multiple times throughout your life and never really known. It\u2019s simply one of the many viruses known to cause what we refer to as \u201cthe common cold\u201d.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>The deception<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>There\u2019s a trick being played here, and as usual in the age of the \u201cpandemic\u201d, it\u2019s a trick of language. The powers that be are exploiting linguistic ambiguity in order to generate fear.<\/p>\n<p>Across most of the world, we simply refer to \u201ca cold\u201d or \u201cthe flu\u201d almost interchangeably to describe the dozen or so respiratory infections we all get throughout our lifetime.<\/p>\n<p>Most of the time we don\u2019t know what specific virus or bacteria is supposedly the cause, we have no way of finding out and it doesn\u2019t make any difference because the symptoms and treatments are all the same: Cough, fever, headache \u2013 bedrest, orange juice and painkillers.<\/p>\n<p>Now, essentially, the media are taking advantage of that ubiquitous ambiguity by naming something <em>that has always been there<\/em> but <em>pretending it is something new<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>Here\u2019s a case in point, the <em>Scientific American<\/em> published <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scientificamerican.com\/article\/rsv-is-surging-what-we-know-about-this-common-and-surprisingly-dangerous-virus\/\">this article on November 4th<\/a>, which headlines:<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\">RSV Is Surging: What We Know about This Common and Surprisingly Dangerous Virus<\/p>\n<p>Now, although the headline claims RSV is \u201csurprisingly dangerous\u201d, the article seems to go out of its way to prove the opposite.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\u201cthe virus is so common that nearly all children have encountered it by their second birthday.\u201d<\/li>\n<li>\u201cIt\u2019s that ubiquitous,\u201d Flores says. \u201cEven adults are exposed to it repeatedly over time, so we develop some immunity to it.\u201d<\/li>\n<li>\u201cIn healthy adults and children, though, RSV typically presents as a common cold, with symptoms similar to those caused by other \u201ccommon cold\u201d viruses, such as rhinovirus, adenovirus and a couple of common coronaviruses.\u201d<\/li>\n<li>\u201cFor the average person, RSV is little more than a nuisance\u201d<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The article does warn that RSV can be<em> \u201cparticularly dangerous for newborn babies and adults older than age 65\u201d<\/em> and the immunocompromised, but <strong>this is true of literally every pathogen\u00a0<\/strong>. And even then, they go on to add:<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\">only about 1 to 2 percent of children under six months with RSV need hospitalization (usually for a couple of days), and death is rare.<\/p>\n<p>This is a tactic we\u2019re all familiar with \u2013 it was routine, throughout the Covid narrative, for official voices to tell us to be afraid, whilst simultaneously explaining there was nothing to be afraid of.<\/p>\n<p>This approach clearly serves some purpose, although I could not say for certain what that may be.<\/p>\n<p>Regardless, the deception is obvious and clearly deliberate.<\/p>\n<p>The question is, why?<\/p>\n<h2><strong>The motive<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>To sum up \u2013 there is no reason to fear RSV infection. The media are clear about that themselves, even if they bury it under layers of hysterical headlines.<\/p>\n<p>It is just one of the many viruses which cause \u2013 or are said to cause \u2013 cold or flu symptoms, all of which circulate the whole world constantly, especially at this time of year.<\/p>\n<p>There\u2019s ALWAYS a \u201ctripledemic\u201d, or a quademic or a septemic. The only difference is<strong> now they are naming it.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>They are taking the routine and pretending it\u2019s exceptional simply to try and frighten you.<\/p>\n<p>Why?<\/p>\n<p>Well, rather predictably, to sell vaccines.<\/p>\n<p>Yes, you\u2019ll be relieved to know that <strong>just as RSV is hitting the headlines for the first time EVER<\/strong>, they\u2019ve also just produced the <strong>first ever vaccines against it<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>On November 1st, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vox.com\/science-and-health\/23424379\/rsv-cold-virus-vaccines-monoclonal-antibodies-flu-covid-maternal-babies-infants-older-adults\">Vox reported<\/a>:<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\">New RSV vaccines are coming.
