Singer Anitta reveals that she was diagnosed with EBV, a virus that can cause multiple sclerosis
December 3, 2022
Two months ago, Anitta was diagnosed with the Epstein–Barr virus, which can be one of the causes of multiple sclerosis. The singer revealed about her process during the release of a documentary this Saturday afternoon, in São Paulo, alongside Ludmila Dayer. It was Ludmila who guided Anitta to undergo the same tests as her, seeing that the singer had similar symptoms and did not arrive at a diagnosis, as happened to her. "When the results arrived, I had the same virus as Ludmila, in the initial phase. Nowadays there is no coincidence. Luckily, by fate, I managed not to reach the stage that Ludmila arrived", said Anitta. "She has been a blessing in my life." In addition to medical follow-up, Anitta had the help of shaman Max Tovar, also on Ludmila's recommendation, to take care of her mental and spiritual health. According to the singer, she was reluctant to call the shaman because she thought she was fine. "Then I saw how much I wasn't well at all. I embarked on this and discovered that we never create any disease if we are well. And when I entered this process I saw that it is a path that has no return. It changed life forever."

Joelma's health problems: cardiac arrest and eye strokes
December 1, 2022
“I had three eye strokes. And some cardiac arrests, but that nobody knows. I went through this alone. But He [God] is my strength”, said the artist during a show in São Paulo. Although few details are known about the moment and the conditions in which the ocular strokes and cardiac arrests occurred, they may have a direct relationship with the acute phase of Covid-19 or with possible sequelae of the infection, says cardiologist Hélio Castello, from the Hospital Alemão Oswaldo Cruz, in São Paulo. In the case of cardiac arrest, he explains that there are two more common hypotheses: myocarditis and infarction caused by a clot. “There are some patients who, at the time of Covid, had myocarditis — an inflammation that affects the heart muscle and that can happen with any virus. With the coronavirus, some patients have had this chronically. There is this acute inflammation, the heart decreases its ability to contract, and a large percentage recover, but there are a number of patients who have heart failure,” he says. The expert points out that "myocarditis increases the risk of having a cardiac arrest", because the inflamed muscle causes the organ to contract less, in addition to dilation. The other possibility would be due to the characteristic of Covid-19 to cause thrombosis in some patients. A clot in the artery supplying the heart would lead to a heart attack, “which can lead to cardiac arrest as a complication”, adds Castello. Regarding ocular effusions, the cardiologist considers that they are rarely serious. “There are several causes for eye stroke, from a moment of stress, increased blood pressure or anything like that, to a thrombosis. It could also be due to some medication that thins the blood to prevent thrombosis, and they increase the chance of bleeding, "he details.

El Kun Agüero and a confession about his health: the arrhythmias did not go away
December 8, 2022
On Wednesday he was on a streaming of Sergio "Kun" Agüero in which Papu Gómez, Leandro Paredes and Rodrigo De Paul also participated. During the broadcast, the former striker gave an update on his health: six months ago he had an arrhythmia. During the streaming with Lionel Messi and other teammates of the albiceleste, the former striker said that he did not overcome his heart problems. According to Agüero, when he does physical activity he uses a device to monitor the heart and the information is recorded on his phone. Then, that data is sent to his doctor. Kun Agüero shows the chip he carries on his left chest. The former player retired in December 2021 after suffering an arrhythmia while playing a match with Barcelona.

Sir Rod Stewart’s son Aiden rushed to hospital with suspected heart attack
December 7, 2022
The 77-year-old singer revealed his boy, 11, turned blue and was unconscious before he was taken away by ambulance when he took a fall while playing for the Young Hoops Under-12s team – which turned out to have been caused by a panic attack sparked by the pressure of striving to perform well in the game. Without specifying when the incident happened, Rod told FourFourTwo magazine: “We thought my boy had a heart attack. He was going blue and was unconscious until he calmed down. It was scary, but it turned out to be a panic attack. The lad wanted to do well, pulled on the Hoops in Scotland for his dad. Another boy fell backwards and banged his head – he’s still not back. In all of my days watching football, that’s the only time two ambulances had been called.”
When the child’s crisis first made news, many made the very sensible assumption that his “suspected heart attack” was due to “vaccination.” In response, the neo-Holocaust-denial outlet “Politifact” rushed online with this typically fact-free “fact-check”:
No, Rod Stewart’s son didn’t suffer a COVID-19 vaccine-induced heart attack
https://www.politifact.com/factchecks/2022/dec/09/instagram-posts/no-rod-stewarts-son-didnt-suffer-a-covid-19-vaccin/
That Aiden Stewart, 11, did not have a heart attack (or so we read) is surely cause for jubilation; but that’s no grounds for exculpating “vaccination”—which is now known to cause panic disorders, as the accomplices-to-murder at “Politifact” should know (though they’re not paid to know such things: on the contrary):

He sings to my soul, I hope he recovers swiftly and not too much discomfort.’

I just watched Mercola's interview of Ed Dowd about his new book, and Dowd says the entire healthcare system is going to collapse under the strains of the ill vaxed healthcare workers and the catastrophic widespread illness caused by those experimental gene-based therapies.
I've only seen one person have a panic attack (she had a long term prescription for Xanax). She turned very red and her face and neck were flushed. Granted that is my only experience, but it seems strange Rod Stewart's little boy would turn blue from a similarly described condition.
