In 1936, in India, recounts Nobel Laureate Bernard Lown in "The Lost Art of Healing," an astonishing experiment was conducted on a prisoner condemned to die by hanging. He was given the choice instead of being "exsanguinated," or having his blood let out, because this would be gradual and relatively painless. The victim agreed, was strapped to the bed and blindfolded.

Unbeknownst to him, water containers were attached to the four bedposts and drip buckets set up below. Then after light scratches were made on his four extremities, the fake drip brigade began: First rapidly, then slowly, always loudly. "As the dripping of water stopped, the healthy young man's heart stopped also. He was dead, having lost not a drop of blood."

People expected to get 'covid' because the propaganda was that "everyone was at risk" ( Gove promoted that early on), and then people could be asymptomatic with 'covid'. The long list of symptoms, a runny nose, sore throat, fever, chills, stomach upset, eg would mean any one or two of those symptoms would lead ( and did lead) to people believing they had contracted 'covid'. That new label given to a set of symptoms, common to colds and flu like illness (fli), inevitably enhanced how those symptoms were felt by many individuals.

Thus, people reported that they felt "terrible" because they had 'covid', and, the PCR 'test' confirmed how "awful" they felt! A common or garden winter cold or, an fli, was elevated by propaganda in to being something 'special', so how people felt on being 'told' they had 'covid'(by the ubiquitous and flawed tests) was magnified.

This isn't to dismiss those who did have a very rough time and died because of their old age and multiple comorbidities, or, underlying health issues. Pneumonia can then develop, which takes many to the end.

Essentially, the rampant propaganda about 'covid' caused a great deal of harm to populations...not just physically but psychologically. The nocebo result of the propaganda.....was it forseen and 'encouraged', or, just an unintentional 'by-product'?
