Public health officials made SARS-CoV-2 the primary target for pandemic measures. Are there other toxic stressors you need to look out for? Find out here.
STORY AT-A-GLANCE
- Toxic stressor exposures, which can be chemical, physical, biological or psychological in nature, hinder your immune system’s ability to fight off viruses, and they deserve greater recognition in the fight against COVID-19 and future pandemics
- Most (95%) of COVID-19 deaths have other comorbidities and underlying conditions that contributed to the death, such as heart disease, high blood pressure, obesity, cancer or diabetes
- Many of these underlying conditions that increase the risk of severe COVID-19 and death are caused by toxic exposures, such as poor diet, environmental chemicals, inactivity and stress
- The COVID-19 pandemic response has focused on short-term emergency measures like quarantines, lockdowns and injections, which do nothing to address the long-term outlook for helping humans fight pathogenic viral diseases
- The reason that SARS-CoV-2 was singled out as the only toxic stressor to target, according to the study, has to do with political and financial reasons, not scientific ones, protecting major production and consumption stakeholders like the pharmaceutical industry, food industry and biotech industry
- In order to protect the public in the long-term, a “quarantine” from toxins like ultraprocessed foods, environmental chemicals, wireless radiation and much more would be far more effective than quarantining from one virus
