Coronovirus in the Philippines

This gentleman has put himself on social media in Davao, he isn't happy with his confinement.

is he in a covid isolation hotel ?

No mate, he is isolated at home, just not happy with the situation.

social services--whats that ?

I think he is looking for a newspaper to highlight his plight, but he is in the wrong country for that.

This chap isn't on a great income as he's clearly not got great accommodation.

oh--i dont know--looks ok to me.

Thought it was Steptoe.

He has put on the sign he needs a doctor and medication,no one gives a flying f*** over there at their own peoples plight, far less a puti, he is going to have to shell out readies.

Five countries in the world don't have face-to-face classes I have just been informed by a student currently doing an online lesson on gout and pseudo-gout, one of those countries is the Philippines.

Interesting topic there “ hyperinsulinemia” and “gout”. I was talking to a builder the other day, working in a neighbours garden. He was a bit over weight to say the least. He has gout. He struggles with it. At 50 yo. I see a lot of people struggling in the same way, on crutches, for the same reason ie too much glucose in the blood and too much insulin.

I would hope that he goes on to say, the cure or antidote is carb restriction. The underlying connection between T2 diabetes and gout is inflammation * caused by glucose. Clinicians are now finding that gout improves radically with carb restriction. Yes, I know some find it hard to grasp and hard to believe but every week that passes sees such results where carb restriction is being applied in NHS surgeries in the U.K. and in people’s homes if people are restricting carbs independently of their own surgery clinicians.

* Inflammation. That’s the key. As I said to Oss the other day, it’s the inflammation that does the damage. Root cause : glucose.

Israel and Switzerland have been put on the Philippines' Red List for a week. Makes sense to include one of the highest vaxxed countries in the world, I suppose.

A completely random list of countries. Can only assume they were blindly throwing darts at a map of the would. Shows how travel has become so unpredictable.

Need to think “root cause”. I think we are all getting there but mostly people only see associations. People who are over weight have a tendency towards gout. People who have T2 DM often have gout. The root cause hasn’t been universally grasped. What really is the ultimate in scientific proof is “what happens if we stop consuming this? “ Because a certain sector or cross section are actioning this now and the results are being compiled, individual by individual rather than in some clinical trial that is never going to work, it is becoming blindingly obvious.

Not all inflammation is caused by glucose extravagance so I don’t know what’s happening to your butt end. That’s a new one for me

Good news for pro vaccines.

I had gout for a while but it rarely comes back now.
The lady across the road is suffering now and she said the doctor is going to give her tablets.
I never went to the doctor with mine, I just started to eat more plant-based food. I eat celery and beetroot if I have a "tingling" in my toes and the gout recedes.
The inflammation is caused by uric acid crystals in the blood.

Oh, it was very painful in my big toe when it first started. I couldn't even let a sheet rest on my foot.

He doesn't look very presentable at all when he is being photographed for a "cause".
A shirt would help.
