Covid mandates certainly accelerate ageing!

Excellent summary. Thank you.

This is great. Gordan Lauc has been researching glycosylation of Immunoglobulin G antibodies as a marker for age-related diseases. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/35970404/ The term "inflammaging" is used - apparently a reference to chronic stimulation of the innate immune system in the context of low-grade inflammation. Anyway, I would be interested in learning about what, if anything, these glycosylation markers reveal about Covid-19 infection. Sorry, I have no background in biology, but I think I've described the above accurately.

Yeah, since the beginning of C19, I have been severely disappointed by that guy. Starting off with tweets like "yay, science!" to advertize for experimental products using tech that had nothing but poblems before...

Also, producing sources of inflammation when producing bazillions of foreign proteins is not going to accelerate aging or anything, no...

I never looked much into biological aging. It always came off more as pop science that seems cool more than anything really meaningful. And even if true, technically anything would dwindle away at our biological clock. Living itself will dwindle away at that, and unless we live in a world without insults or injury things are bound to accelerate our aging, including predispositions towards diseases.

So I kind of look at all of this with a glance of, "so what?" Are we supposed to stop living because we're scared of our biological clocks running empty? It seems like a way for them to stretch out the fear even further.

And like you said, if SARS-COV2 ends up accelerating aging likely all infections would as well. It seems trivial for them to raise such criticisms towards SARS-COV2 in particular.

What's the saying? "When I die, I want to look not just old, but beat to shit"? That's how I view aging. Battle scars obtained from living.

Sinclair makes an absolute fortune from "trying to help people". He did something like the following, but check me on the details. If I'm incorrect, somebody make corrections.

People used an anti-aging supplement called NMN. He created his own patented version, then got the FDA to ban the regular and much cheaper NMN because it isn't "safe". Nice, huh? Sound like a familiar pattern?

[edit: Yes, there are companies in companies, and "I don't really own anything." And so on.]

Yes that's the story for the most part, except: the FDA didn't ban NMN afterwards because it was unsafe, but rather due to regulations. It's now a drug by Sinclair's company so can't be sold as a supplement anymore. This doesn’t apply to other form, NR though. The whole thing was similar to what NAC went through until the decision to reverse it recently, especially in light of the fact NAC was last prescribed as a drug over 50 ( or 60?) years ago. Anyways David all my respect in these last couple years

For example, from a British MD's channel:

"David Sinclair Responds To The NMN Supplement Ban!"

Dr Brad Stanfield

David Sinclair has issued a response letter to the FDA’s Ban on NMN Supplements. Remember this ban happened because of Metro Biotech, the company that David co-founded and is the current Scientific Advisory Board Chair

A typical comment there:

"In Sinclair’s book, Lifespan, he details his incredible research into NMN and then spouts the anecdotal miracle his elderly father experienced from taking buckets of NMN. But now he’s behind preventing my elderly mother from getting it over the counter. Pure greed. Thanks for your good work and bravery on publishing the truth on both the research and supplement space."

wish fauci will come clean and tell what exactly they have done with this gain of function.

so it can be addressed.

Their GoF clones can't make a pandemic at best they can infect a small local group.. the biology does not support fidelity esp w coronavirus... listen to this chat with Drs Paul Alexander,Jay Couey & Mike Yeadon on the virus and psyops.. fab science!!

if this was true president trump would have told us ... nahhhh

Sinclair's Pro Vax agenda is obvious even if you do not know the aging data. All you ned to know is the Vax data. Thank you for a well-researched rebuttal.

I think a more poignant question would be: do the mRNA shots accelerate aging?

I don’t have any thing but anecdotal evidence, but in the elderly people I care for, I’ve observed what looks absolutely like marked accelerated aging.

Have similar studies been conducted looking at vaccination status as relates to “accelerated aging?”

Expand full comment

problem with those studies is how they determine a "covid case" in the hospitals. it's either assuming by symptomology or by bogus PCR tests that amplify homologous sequences of the endemic background coronavirus swarm. For the bare minimum you would have to nanopore sequence material of a symptomatic person to count towards a case. If you don't do this, you'll not be able to differentiate from the noise (healthy background).

With regards to Sinclair, I've lost all respect of how he's grifting off the longevity hype and again leading to collateral FDA induced damage (NMN issue).

Alltogether I would hypothesize that the mRNA LNP prodrugs are affecting (reducing) the lifespan in a dose dependent manner.

Once we have a reliable test if someone that said so did indeed take the shots, we can do cohort studies on this issue.
