COVID in the hall of the mountain King. Very well done.

One of my favorite pieces of music has been “In the hall of the mountain King” ever since I was a youth. When the the Norwegian Edvard Grieg composed it in 1875 he didn’t think much of it and likened it to cowpats. It was written for mixed choir and orchestra, but somehow it got performed, and people liked it immensely, so it got rearranged for orchestra only and was put in August Strindberg’s play Peer Gynt under the name “I bergakungens sal”. While Grieg himself could barely make himself listen to it, this may be the most performed and beloved piece of music of all his creations. It starts out slowly and is one big crescendo ending up prestissimo.

Here it is set to COVID clips, intentionally overwhelming you. It is very well done. I have no idea who made it, but it appeared on twitter after the automatic censorship was lifted. Listen for yourself:

Pfizer and Moderna vaccines may create heart problems. Do not vaccinate healthy people under the age of 45.

Bad news about the dangers that mRNA vaccines may pose to the heart and blood vessels keeps coming.

A new study of 566 patients who received either the Pfizer or Moderna vaccines shows that signs of cardiovascular damage soared following the shots. The risk of heart attacks or other severe coronary problems more than doubled months after the vaccines were administered, based on changes in markers of inflammation and other cell damage.

Patients had a 1 in 4 risk for severe problems after the vaccines, compared to 1 in 9 before.

Dr. Steven Gundry, a Nebraska physician and retired cardiac surgeon, presented the findings at the Scientific Sessions of the American Heart Association’s annual conference in Boston last week. An abstract is available in Circulation, the AHA’s scientific journal.

This caught my attention after having posted the conclusion from United Kingdom’s statistically valid statistics about deaths for vaccinated and unvaccinated people: https://lenbilen.com/2021/11/21/office-for-national-statistics-uk-has-some-interesting-data-on-total-death-rates-for-unvaccinated-and-vaccinated-people-below-the-age-46-you-are-better-off-without-vaccination-my-opinion/

My conclusion from that statistics is that vaccines are beneficial if you are over the age of 46. Because of the coarseness in the age-related data, only 4 categories, the uncertainity is +- 5 years. This is one more argument that speaks for the conclusion that if you are young, you are better off getting COVID-19 and acquiring natural immunity, rather than take the vaccine and be stuck with booster shots every 6 to 8 months. The vaccine itself is experimental, and we do not yet know the long term effect of it, much less the long term effect of the booster shots.
