The Greediest 'Non-Profit' Hospital in America

cures No Comments »

A recent survey found that 36% of University of Pittsburgh Medical Center workers are in medical debt to their employer.

UPMC is a healthcare giant. It employs more than 92,000 people, has an operating revenue of roughly billion, and as a “non-profit”, it’s technically supposed to provide affordable healthcare to the people who need it most.

But its flagship hospital recently made headlines for being the least charitable non-profit hospital in the country.

In 1969, the tax code was modified so that a hospital didn’t have to pay taxes as long as it was “promoting health.” Charity care” became optional.

So Vikas Saini and his colleagues at the Lown institute decided to take a closer look at just how far some non-profit hospitals have strayed from their original mandate of giving back. They looked at over 1,700 nonprofit hospitals nationwide and calculated what they call the “fair share” spending for each. If a hospital took more money in tax breaks than it gave back to the community, it had a fair share deficit.

Meanwhile, UPMC’s former CEO made .9 million in 2021. In total, top executives raked in 5 million — more than double what UPMC spent on charity care that year.

That’s enough money to keep hundreds of rural hospitals open, or to cancel the medical debt of hundreds of thousands of patients.

In just the last ten years, UPMC has grown from 12 hospitals to over 40.

Understaffing is pervasive at UPMC — and it’s only become worse as the hospital has gained more and more market power.

In May 2023, a coalition of unions filed an antitrust complaint with the Justice Department, accusing UPMC of using its market power to harm workers.

Three quarters of nonprofit hospitals are getting more in tax breaks than they’re spending on communities. That’s enough money to cancel the medical debt of 18 million Americans.

Making Medical Decisions, Finding Peace, & Curing Cancer is not Profitable Proof

In this video I chat about an article I found that blatantly suggests to biotech companies that finding a cure for cancer is NOT profitable and they should therefore delay or not do it.

https://www.cnbc.com/2018/04/11/goldman-asks-is-curing-patients-a-sustainable-business-model.html

I also chat about making my latest medical decision to not take any treatment right now.

If you’d like to reach out, please email me at anascancerjourney@gmail.com

Jane McLlelend’s book and course are the more invaluable science-backed resources I’ve seen to go above what conventional oncologists recommend (often death when it’s stage 4) to options that are saving people’s lives. Please see her course here:
https://how-to-starve-cancer.teachable.com/?affcode=748639_zxi8sru6

A lower cost option, and just as full of life saving information is Jane McLlelend’s book, “How to Starve Cancer and then Kill it with Ferroptosis” which you can purchase from Amazon here: https://amzn.to/3AtFvna

This Synthetic Vitamin is Linked to Causing Cancer, High Blood Pressure, Cardiac Risk & Osteoporosis

This EVERYDAY use vitamin might be making you sick and even causing your body to develop heart disease, decreased bone mass, elevated cholesterol levels as well as even cancer of the breast, lung, colon, and prostate.

Sadly this vitamin is still being manufactured. Alpha-tocopherol. (A-tocopherol) is the synthetic version of Vitamin E. It’s everywhere! Please look in all your supplements and nutrient-dense powders, drinks, and foods.

A healthier alternative to Vitamin E is tocotrienol.

My fave alternatives are:
Delta-Fraction Tocotrienols 125mg http://bit.ly/2OXjZAh
Annatto Tocotrienol http://bit.ly/2DOPea7

The best natural hangover cures

Doctor explains HOW TO TREAT AND PREVENT BACTERIAL VAGINOSIS (BV)

cures No Comments »

In this video Dr O’Donovan explains how to treat and prevent BACTERIAL VAGINOSIS (BV).

BV happens because of a change in the normal balance of vaginal bacteria and a drop in the lactobacillus bacteria inside the vagina which is responsible for keeping the vagina slightly acidic so bad bacteria don’t grow as well.

Now the good news is that BV usually doesn’t cause any other health problems. But it can lead to issues, especially when you’re pregnant or trying to get pregnant so in this video we’ll cover treatment and prevention.

SYMPTOMS OF BV:

• A burning feeling when you pee
• A fishy smell that gets stronger after sex
• Itching
• Thin white, gray, or green discharge.

TREATMENT OPTIONS:

Antibiotics like (metronidazole or clindamycin) are normally given to treat BV. This could be a tablet you take by mouth or a cream or gel you put into your vagina.

You’ll need to take most treatments for 5 to 7 days and you should finish all your medicine, even if the symptoms go away. This is because if you stop early, the infection could come back.

It’s common for bacterial vaginosis to come back, usually within a few months and if it does come back, you’ll usually be given more antibiotics to treat it.

If you get it more than 4 times a year then you may be given an antibiotic gel that you put in your vagina. You may need to use this for a few months to help stop bacterial vaginosis coming back.

PREVENTATIVE TIPS:

• Clean sex toys after every use.
• Don’t douche – Douching upsets the natural balance of bacteria and so can scented soaps, bubble baths, and vaginal deodorants.
• Get tested for sexually transmitted diseases, and make sure your sex partners are tested.
• Try to use protection with every sexual partner – for example if your partner is male ask them to use a condom.
• Use only water or mild soap to wash your genitals.
• Finally, wipe from front to back after you use the bathroom.

Influenza (Flu)

cures No Comments »

Influenza, or the flu, is a contagious viral infection that attacks your nose, throat, and lungs. It can cause fever, chills, runny nose, sore throat, cough, muscle aches, and fatigue. The flu virus is extremely small and only visible through electron microscopes. Inside the virus, genetic material contains the information to make more copies of the same virus. A protein shell provides a hard, protective enclosure for the genetic material as the virus travels between the people or animals it infects. An outer envelope allows the virus to infect cells by merging with the cell’s outer membrane. Projecting from the envelope are spikes of protein molecules. The flu virus uses its H spikes like a key to get inside your cells. N spikes allow copies of the virus to break away from your infected cells to infect more cells. There are 17 known types of H spikes and nine types of N spikes that scientists use to name different flu viruses, such as the virus H5N1. You get the flu by touching an object that has the flu virus on it or through exposure to body fluids from people or animals infected with the virus. When an infected person talks, coughs, or sneezes, droplets carrying the influenza virus may land in your mouth or nose and then move into your lungs. Once inside your body, the influenza virus comes into contact with cells in your nose, throat, or lungs. The H spike on the virus inserts into a receptor molecule on your healthy cell membrane, like a key in a lock. This action allows the virus to get inside your cell. Next, the virus travels inside a sack made from your cell membrane to your cell’s nucleus. Then the viral envelope and cell membrane sack combine, allowing the viral genetic material to leave the sack and enter the nucleus. The viral genetic material hijacks the energy and materials in your cell’s nucleus to make thousands of copies of itself. Some of the genetic material moves out of the nucleus, then attaches to ribosomes, which are the protein building parts of your cell. Ribosomes use information from the genetic material to make other viral proteins, such as the H and N spikes. A packaging structure in your cell, called the Golgi apparatus, carries the H and N spikes in vesicles which merge with your cell’s membrane. All the parts needed to create a new virus gather just beneath your cell’s membrane. Then a new virus begins to bud off from the cell’s membrane. During this process, the newly created virus gets stuck on your cell’s membrane when a viral H spike locks onto membrane receptors. However, the virus has a way to get around this problem. The viral N spike frees the virus by cutting it away from the receptor. New influenza viruses are now free to infect more of your cells and cause you to develop the flu. If you have the flu, your doctor may prescribe Oseltamivir, which you would take orally, or Zanamivir, which you would take using an inhaler, to help speed your recovery or reduce your risk for complications. These anti-viral drugs stop the influenza virus by blocking the viral N spike from freeing the virus. This causes the new viruses to stick to the surface of your cell, so they cannot escape and infect more of your cells. The best way to protect yourself from the flu is to get the flu vaccine every year. You may receive the vaccine as a shot, which contains dead versions of several types of the virus, or you may receive it as a nasal spray, which contains several types of live, but very weak, forms of the virus. The vaccine exposes your body to several types of the influenza virus that are too weak to cause infection but just strong enough to stimulate an immune response. Within two weeks, cells in your immune system make markers called antibodies, which are specific for only the types of flu you were exposed to. The antibodies attach to each flu virus and prevent it from attaching to your cells. Antibodies are also able to attach to more than one flu virus, which causes viruses to clump together. Your immune system responds to signals from the antibodies by engulfing and destroying the clumps of viruses. Later, if you are exposed to these types of flu again, your body recognizes and destroys them, so you will not develop the flu from these same viruses. For continued protection against new flu viruses, you will need to get a flu vaccine every year.

Every flu season is unique. The 2019-2020 outbreak features more cases of influenza B, the viral strain that usually emerges later in the season.

“We’re right now in the thick of the flu season. Here at Harborview, we’re seeing anywhere from 5-10 cases of influenza in our clinics and our emergency room pretty much every day,” says Dr. John Lynch, the hospital’s medical director of infection control.

The most effective prevention method is the flu shot – and it’s not too late to get one. Beyond that, wash your hands, stay home if you don’t feel well, and if you or another family member plans to seek treatment at a clinic, call in advance so they can prepare. Wear a mask, too, if they have those available in the waiting room to keep from spreading the virus.
