Bari, 333 dead from sudden illness in July, ministry: "It's the heat", the web: "No, the Covid vaccine"
August 22, 2023
333 dead in the month of July alone, including the first four days of August due to sudden illness. It happens in Bari, in Puglia, where there has been a +42% of deaths expected in the over 65 range. An inexplicable increase, to which the Ministry of Health has already found the solution: "It was the heat". Many of these deaths coincide with the days in which there was the peak, with 40 degrees [104F] reached. A version that however leaves doubts and opens up different scenarios.
A disturbing fact, which concerns the substantial number of deaths from sudden illness in the month of July in Bari. The reason would be due to research in the exceptional heat wave recorded and which lasted about three weeks: in that period in Bari it exceeded 35 degrees [95F], with peaks over 40 [104F]. The band taken into consideration is the one that goes from 8 July to 24-25 of the month, the central one. A hot killer, which would mostly affect the elderly and chronically ill.
But every summer it is hot and last year too, more or less, there were very high heat waves, as is normal. In the age group ranging from 65 years upwards, 311 cases were observed, while 219 were expected: 333 people who lost their lives. The expected value is defined as "weekly average on historical series data (considering the previous 5 years) of daily mortality and weighted for the resident population, to take into account the increase in the elderly population in more recent years". The difference on Bari is equal to +92, and consequently to that +42%.
There are also those on the web who correlate deaths from sudden illness with the adverse effects of the Covid vaccine. The data from the Apulian capital have raised the antennae of many users on social networks, who prefer to investigate the matter more thoroughly. On Twitter there are also those who are ironic: "I wonder if they had something else in common besides the sun... Maybe an event they had in common, some pathology linked to the climate, maybe they made use of military secrets", while Alfonso wrote on Facebook: " In winter "it was the cold", in spring "it was the allergy", carry on like this...".
Sergio: "Sudden illness caused by what? Sudden illness has a cause, which one? During the covid emergency period, who knows why without an autopsy any death was attributed to covid. Now that the possible correlation should be verified through so-called active surveillance with vaccinations, nothing, nothing! For the press, they are all sudden deaths or natural deaths".

Livorno - A two-and-a-half-year-old boy died: he fell ill during the night and arrived at the hospital now lifeless
August 18, 2023
A two-and-a-half-year-old boy from Turin died in the night between Wednesday 16 and Thursday 17 August after feeling ill while he was at home with his family. It was the mother, when it was almost 5 in the morning, who became aware of her son's condition and, as soon as she understood the seriousness of the situation, she contacted 118, but when the SVS volunteers and the 118 doctor arrived at the house in the city center, the child's conditions were already evidently critical. During transport to the hospital, the doctor still attempted every resuscitation maneuver, but unfortunately there was nothing they could do. Once they arrived at the hospital, it was not possible to do anything but ascertain the death. The Livorno flying squad is investigating what happened last night, under the coordination of the prosecutor's office, to ascertain exactly the dynamics of the facts and reconstruct the last hours of the child's life. And to understand, therefore, if it was a sudden illness or if the death was caused by other factors, perhaps due to the consequences of a previous apparently harmless accidental fall or for other reasons yet to be clarified. Answers that, presumably, will be given by the autopsy requested by the prosecutor on duty, Giuseppe Rizzo.

The other evening, faced with an increase in pain, Simona Piccoli, 47 years old, living in Luzzara, was accompanied to the emergency room in Guastalla by her partner, Marco Vandi. It seemed that a simple medical checkup was in order. Instead, while the first investigations were still being carried out, a sudden cardiac arrest occurred. The health personnel immediately intervened, managing to restore vital functions, with the transfer of the patient to intensive care. The other morning the situation precipitated, with the death of the young woman. The hospital's health management requested the execution of a forensic medical examination to give an answer to the suspicions that have emerged so far regarding the cause of death. "A form of leukemia or a lung disease cannot be excluded,” confides her partner Marco, also known for his activity as a DJ – but the autopsy will clarify the causes". The exam should be performed tomorrow. Then the funeral will be fixed (entrusted to the Bernardelli agency), with a short ceremony in the church of Luzzara.

Whatever these "illnesses" are from, it sure appears that the covid vaccinated are getting it. A person told my husband the other day, that he had 3 jabs, he is angry, and hopes he will die suddenly, in his sleep. Sadly he knows the truth.
