Discrepancies in valuation of life
Historically, ethical principles in health policy have often been disregarded when they have concerned vulnerable groups, with the distribution of life-saving drugs considered too expensive and unsustainable and the recipients deemed unfit and unworthy.3 For example, this was the case with multidrug-resistant tuberculosis, a disease that was once considered as one of the deadliest diseases for vulnerable groups.4 The inadequacy of care and treatment for some non-communicable diseases (NCDs), such as cancer, is another more recent example of how access to treatment is often overshadowed by the push for a prevention-only approach to diseases, with care and treatment deemed too expensive for low-income countries to provide. This tendency continues despite the growing evidence of the burden of NCDs in low-income countries. In fact, the Lancet NCDs and Injuries Poverty Commission5 showed that more than a third of the disease burden in the poorest billion is due to NCDs.

They are designing meds for treating covid 19 from common chemistries in certain foods, spices, and herbs...but unless you know where to look, you will never find out about the natural chemistries that can treat it... All cultures have had things to protect us from disease, but they want us to believe in the government and the pharma companies as the only way to protect us from disease.

Thank you for posting useful information!!
We are Earthlings; of this earth. Nature provides us with whatever ails us. But there’s no money (Capitalism) to be made if people depended on nature and can “grow their own” treatments. Some of what nature provides, can be “tweaked” for faster/ more intense therapies, I guess. Pertinent now: Ivermectin is of the earth; found around Tokyo (avermectin).

Sometimes the body ask for certain foods, minerals and herbs, I get cravings of certain foods all the time, I will eat them everyday and then the craving is gone.
I had the grapefruit craving a few years ago, I would eat it everyday first thing in the morning, then the craving was gone.
Funny, but if we listen the body will tell what it needs
