The trauma of covid19

During the lockdown, I have seen many mental health professionals question the mental health of those who question authority. I think this is appalling and anything but professional or trauma informed.

There is a big difference between being authoritative and authoritarian and all governments are being tyrannical and authoritarian, except Sweden, in their handling of the corona virus as far as I can see. 

According to mercola.com, "Based on deaths per capita, the global average death rate for COVID-19 is 0.009%. The average person’s chance of surviving this disease is 99.991%".

How on earth can lockdown, mandatory mask wearing, suicide, depression, trauma, people dying alone, people losing their jobs, houses and who don't have enough money to feed themselves be justified if 99.991% of us are surviving covid19? It cannot be justified. 

We need to protect our vulnerable, not just from covid19, but from anything that can harm them and the same goes for all 7.8 billion of us. The PR spin we are being subjected to, is just that, as the cases of disgraceful nursing home deaths all over the world shows.

We have locked down for covid19, why haven't we locked down for the flu? The flu kills more people than covid19, as revised statistics are showing. If we heard the fatality statistics for any infection or disease, day after day after day, non-stop, we would be afraid of getting it. This fear mongering for covid19 cannot be justified in any way, except to control people.

This is one of the most traumatic times that human beings have ever faced. This affects the entire world, all 7.8 billion of us. Our basic human rights to informed consent, bodily sovereignty and medical freedom are being seriously infringed and taken away, bit by bit. Death by a thousand cuts, unless we take a stand.

It is my view that to question authority is in fact a really healthy thing to do and is part of the individuation process that Carl Jung talks about. 

My heart breaks for the children having to wear masks all day in school, have their temperatures taken and to socially distance. This is no way for children to grow up. The war on viruses, like the war on terror, drugs, cancer, will not work. These 'wars' are ludicrous. Humans have evolved over millions of years with viruses, bacteria and so on. Governments (and corporations) are teaching our children to be afraid of their own and others' bodies, and I am just appalled at this. It is criminal.

As far as I'm concerned, there are no experts, only people with expertise. People who refer to themselves as experts have put themselves on a pedestal as if to say they know it all. No one knows it all. People with expertise realise they are always learning, the learning journey never ends. 

The people with expertise who I am learning from on this issue are Jack Kruse, Kelly Brogan, Zach Bush, Ben Lynch, Joseph Mercola, Joseph Yi, Dolores Cahill, Christiane Northrup, Andrew Kaufman, Robert F. Jennedy Jr and amazing politicians taking a stand for truth like Sara Cunial in Italy, to name a few. Watch her address the Italian parliament, it is inspiring https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_9InUJC2VOo&frags=pl%2Cwn
