Many more deaths through COVID-related famine, worldwide.

The ‘Minding Corona’ reasoning, simply put, in 7 bullet points:

  • Mind = body. There is no influence of something ephemeral upon something material. Change of mind = change of body. Please, wake up to this or stop reading.
  • The placebo effect (and its counter-cousin, the nocebo effect) shows that health can be affected by sheer expectation-related suggestion on many domains to substantial degrees.
  • Social nocebo (joint negative expectations by groups) is extensively investigated and shows to be potentially fatal.
  • A lot of research shows the ‘influence of mind’ (see above) on immune-inflammatory (dys)function, which is heavily related to COVID morbidity and mortality.
  • As a whirlpool-like phenomenon, mind-related and virus-related factors can draw COVID-patients increasingly down. Getting in or out of this whirlpool can mean a distinction between life or death.
  • COVID vaccinations work, but in view of (very) flawed initial studies, we have no clue how big their placebo effect is ― better seen as a diminishment of nocebo (= getting out of the whirlpool).
  • Personal and group-related instruments are available for scientific investigations and management. [see: “Proving and Using the Mind in COVID“] I cannot do so by myself. Please, help. At least, try to see it as helping yourself!

There is no other way. Besides, it’s an Read the full article…
