This is just the craziest thing I have experienced mankind do to itself ever. pH – CoronaVirus and the SO2 Madness
by Rich Fosh, UK
Dear All,
When I first read about the CoronaVirus (2019-nCoV), my immediate reaction was to DuckDuckGo search pH dependency = https://duckduckgo.com/?q=coronavirus+ph+dependency&atb=v121-1&ia=web This immediately gave me several bits of vital information, to
understand the situation from a biological and nutritional perspective.
By looking at historical studies, to see some baseline characteristics:
In this report, we show that the SARS-CoV S glycoprotein mediates viral entry through pH-dependent endocytosis. Reference : 1
In contrast, influenza and Ebola viruses are prototypes for viruses that utilize a pH-dependent endocytotic pathway (43).
To determine the pathway utilized by the SARS-CoV, the pH dependence of
the SARS-CoV S-pseudotyped lentiviral vector was analyzed. Addition of
ammonium chloride, which prevents acidification of the endosome, caused a
dose-dependent reduction in viral entry (Fig. (Fig.1B,1B, left) at concentrations similar to those described for other pH-dependent viral glycoproteins (3, 11, 43).
This effect was also observed with another inhibitor of endosomal
acidification, bafilomycin, also in a dose-dependent fashion (Fig. (Fig.1B,1B, right). Reference : 1
The World Health Organization has concluded that SARS is
produced by a new virulent strain of coronavirus. Specific research on
the possible pH dependency of the SARS virus has not yet been done. It
is well known that coronavirus infectivity is exquisitely sensitive to
pH. For example, the MHV-A59 strain of coronavirus is quite stable at
pH 6.0 (acidic) but becomes rapidly and irreversibly inactivated by
brief treatment at pH 8.0 (alkaline). Human coronavirus strain 229E is
maximally infective at pH 6.0. Infection of cells by murine coronavirus
A59 at pH 6.0 (acidic) rather than pH 7.0 (neutral) yields a tenfold
increase in the infectivity of the virus. Reference : 2
Infection of susceptible murine cells with the
coronavirus mouse hepatitis virus type 4 (MHV4) results in extensive
cell-cell fusion at pHs from 5.5 to 8.5. The
endosomotropic weak bases chloroquine and ammonium chloride do not
prevent MHV4 infection. In marked contrast, we have selected variants
from a neural cell line persistently infected with MHV4 which are
entirely dependent on acid pH to fuse host cells and are strongly
inhibited by endosomotropic weak bases… Wild-type S
induced cell-cell fusion at neutral pH, whereas variant S required
prolonged exposure to acidic pH to induce fusion… These findings
demonstrate that the pH dependence of coronavirus fusion is highly
variable and that this variability can be determined by as few as three
amino acid residues. Reference : 3
So, we can see above, that in most cases (all that I can find),
scientific studies are showing multiple variants of CoronaVirus are
completely pH driven, in terms of susceptibility (most cases, sadly only
pH range 5.5-8.5 tested, maybe scientists could test Magnesium
Hydroxide = 10.5, to show if higher pH is protective/preventative) and
intensity of infection (seemingly all), though there are variations in
pH levels required to neutralise the impacts. Now, initially I just doubled down on my thoughts on Alkalising my
own terrain and looking after my childrens via diet and key suppliments.
However, as the stories became more and more alarming, things took a
dramatic turn. Sunday 9th February 2020 Reports emerged of an outrageous happening in China
Using Windy.com it was discovered that rates of Sulphur Dioxide above Wuhan were reading 1351PPBNow, this alone, suggests strongly that there has been a huge upsurge
in burning of organic matter which releases SO2, leading to speculation
that high levels of cremation are occurring. The data is contested by
some, claims made that this comes from a ‘modelling’ or predictive site,
so the numbers cannot be trusted (maybe true, but they are a strong
indicator of ‘in the range of’, if not exact in the measurements. This
may have some validity, however, another site, https://earth.nullschool.net/ showed similar numbers to https://windy.com
even when you look without the forecast running you still get numbers
in the potentially fatal zones (just like predicting the weather in
general, supercomputers are pretty accurate at the immediate forecast
numbers). When I saw these reports, my mind was not transfixed on whether or
not this was exactly accurate, or whether it was due to cremations (if
so the numbers would clearly need to be hugely higher to create this
phenomena), it was OMG why is the Chinese Authorities allowing huge ammounts of SO2 into the atmosphere in the midst of a pH dependant Viral outbreak? So, immediately I went to look at the safe limits, remember the models were showing 1,300+ PPB :
SO2 is a toxic gas, which is directly
harmful to human health. It is heavier than air and has a suffocating
odour at an atmospheric concentration of around 500 parts per billion
(ppb), at which level it can be fatal. At lower levels, chest pains,
breathing problems, eye irritation and a lowered resistance to heart and lung diseases can be experienced. At 20 ppb or lower there should be no ill effects to a healthy person. The normal atmospheric background concentration of SO2 is generally less than 10 ppb.
A secondary effect is the formation of sulphates (and
nitrates), in the form of aerosols or very fine airborne particles,
which can comprise a significant proportion of the particulate matter
and have been linked to
increased asthma attacks, heart and lung disease and respiratory
problems in susceptible population groups.
A third effect can occur further away from the emission
source where the sulphur oxides will have converted to acids by aqueous
phase reactions in the atmosphere. These acidic aerosols are eventually
precipitated as acid rain, snow, sleet or fog but only when
they encounter the right meteorological conditions. In the absence of
man made pollution rain water would be slightly acidic, around pH 5, due
to the presence of carbonic acid from the interaction of water vapour
and naturally occurring levels of CO2. Acid rain on the other hand has been measured with pH levels below 3 corresponding to vinegar.
In their 2009 joint proposal to the IMO, the USA and Canada
stated that by designating the eastern and western seaboards of North
America an Emissions Control Area, “as many as 8,300 lives
will be saved and over three million people will experience relief from
acute respiratory symptoms each year”. Reference : 4
So, we can see above, that rates at or above 500 PPB are considered
an immediate threat to life, to many groups in society when all is
otherwise well. However, Wuhan and several other regions are showing
numbers at this level and 2-3x this level, which is a clear respiratory
danger to life, whilst in the midst of another Respiratory crisis in the
form of CoronaVirus. WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON!!! The issue over whether this is Cremations, or not, for me is absolutely secondary (though more on this later). The issue is, who in a sane mind in Chinese Authorities, would
authorise or advise scientifically that it was fine to allow the output
of huge plumes of SO2, when whole cities are in lockdown, this is
INSANE! Here is few screen grabs, I took last night to show the current predicted Air levels of Sulphur Dioxide:
Wuhan
at 11:00pm UK Time last night 10/02/2020, the forecaster was not
running, so this is a real time prediction, North of Wuhan = 430PPB just
below ‘risk to life’ levels.Another location near Wuhan, Midnight UK Time 11/02/2020 Zoomed out to show the levels are high all over China largely. PPB =559 Potentially fatal rangeThen, using https://earth.nullschool.net/
at around 12:30am 11/02/2020 UK Time, the Supercomputer forecasting
modeller showed 928 PPB = Virtually 2x Potentially Fatal levelsThis is just the craziest thing I have experienced mankind do
to itself ever. In the midst of cities being locked down due to a
virulent Viral emergency, something in China is causing SO2 levels up to
appear 1-3x that which is considered an immediate threat to life, yet
we are hearing no warnings from the Chinese authorities or WHO that this
is happening. When I took these readings, multiple other cities were all showing
these same high readings, Chongqing was at (or over) 500PPB and others I
did not record the names of, again I stress the forecast as not
running, this was a ‘prediction’ of the present. As I write this today (12:45pm 11/02/2020) North West (as the wind is
blowing) of Wuhan is showing readings between 300-500PPB. It appears
the outgassing is highest during the nights, very very small mercies!
Just
under ‘Potentially fatal’ level at Lunchtime 11/02/2020 8:50pm Chinese
Time (if burning of organic matter is happening during the night, as the
modelling forecasts suggest, this may well rise back in the coming
hours)This has left me staggered, how can the Chinese Scientists who advise
Government policy, or the WHO, or NATO, not be shouting and screaming
about this? Imagine you are in this region, or your loved ones, and they
are already at huge threat due to a clearly highly dangerous virus,
then you find that the air is being degraded so much as to cause a huge
uptick in susceptibility to respiratory illnesses??? It is beyond any reasonable debate, that SO2 gas is an acid
forming respiratory threat, it will drive down the pH of the terrain is
encounters when in sufficient volume and/or when the host lacks
sufficient buffering capability. So, now we should look at what level of SO2 output huge numbers of
cremations may cause, when I was a young man I travelled around
South-East Asia, on place which was fascinating was Varanasi. The
ancient town famous for being a place an estimated 25,000-30,000 Hindu’s
go, to be cremated in the Ghats per year. If we divide the lower number 25,000 x 365 we can say an estimated 65
people per day are being Cremated in Varanasi (to my recollection I
recall massively higher numbers), none-the-less, this gives us a really
good baseline, to look at the SO2 levels above/around Varanasi… given
this daily figure is more than are reportedly dying in any one place
daily in China (or anywhere) due to CoronaVirus:
So,
we can see that at 6:50pm local time in Varanasi, when the bodies will
have chiefly been burning through the day, we have 12PPB = 68 bodies
burned a day, straight out into the atmosphere.
So, the above shows fairly conclusively, that if it is bodies being cremated in China, the numbers must be in the range of 2 orders of magnitude higher (100x), to have anything like the outputs we are seeing in China. 650 cremations would speculatively result in 120PPB, 6,500 would conceivably result in 1,200PPB+ as has been recorded (modelled or forecast, as you will). The article on effects of SO2 cited above states that ambient levels will be below 10PPB, so we could say the difference between 10 and 12 is what 65 bodies being cremated is showing as causative, then the numbers start to spiral into much higher orders of magnitude (if a 2 points SO2 rise is shown for 65 cremations, then 65 x 20 = 130, 65 x 200 = 13,000, 1200 x 65 = 78,000!!! The numbers start to look absolutely catastrophic is this is cremation driven)
This is a crude comparison, of course, but what other way can we
compare to get an insight of what might be happening to create such huge
waves of seemingly deadly gas sweeping across China? Incineration of
bedding, medical materials (and such) likely dampens these numbers down,
but none the less, something much more dramatic than we are being shown
by the Chinese authorities seems to be happening. This is not meant to be alarmist, this is meant to be prodding around
with the scant information people are discovering, to allow us to get
some kind of clearer picture. That there is a two week gestation period, before symptoms show, then
if like other viruses of the type, up to an 8-10 week illness/recovery
period, means we have another 4-6 week to see what the first wave is
actually doing to people, I pray we all keep relaying the truth of our
experiences, to allow the best outcome for us all. Wishing you all well Rich Fosh
