Social indoor mixing
Is this a post lockdown effect?
My grandmother almost died of Scarlett fever when she was 4 years old. She was bed ridden for 4 months and had to basically learn how to walk again. She swears that after that it gave her a super strong immune system. She’s never been sick a day in her life and is the strongest women I know. She will be 93 soon.
It's weird all these illnesses popping up on the past few years.
@@shawnwilton7997 As more people drank the tea so the immune system gets weaker and latent viruses and diseases are able to come to the surface or invade from the outside a weakened immune system.
It was probably rheumatic fever. Scarlet fever is strep throat with a rash.
@@ShadowMan66think they could be saying this just to hide the real cause
That is really interesting. I had the same thing at age 6. I have never forgotten it. I also have a very strong immune system and have often wondered if that is why. I am 65 , and have been around people with Covid and various other colds and flu but I never catch them. Would be an interesting study to do. Thankyou for your comment, it has reinforced what I have often wondered about. May your Grandmother stay strong and healthy 😃
Unfortunately we just had a 9 year old die in Kelowna BC Canada because doctors failed to give antibiotics when signs were so clear that the child had strep and was in distress. We need to be our own medical advocates, thank you for the information that you share!❤
Yes it is frightening what is happening in canada. Medical facilities overrun with sick children between RSV and now strep showing up. Apparently there is a shortage of medications in Canada
But COVID vaxx masks lockdowns!
turpentine
@@debbiedebruyne1639 There is and it began 9 months ago in the Spring of 2022. Those responsible for procuring medicine for Canadians knew this and did nothing in particular about it. And now winter has come, which is always a bad time for illness anyway, but now without enough medicine... It's almost as if someone wanted another medical crisis and more misery put upon the people. How else can one explain such deadly and gross incompetence?
@@debbiedebruyne1639 Unfortunately for Canadians, there's no shortage of incompetence in Canada. 😞
My son nearly died from strep in his blood in 2021. It took 12 days and multiple trips to hospitals/doctors to get a diagnosis. It was like we were living in a movie and everyone was reading from the same script. "It's COVID, come back when you can't breathe". By the time I finally got him diagnosed it was attacking his heart. He was rushed via ambulance from the final urgent Care to the hospital only for the hospital to try and give him another COVID test. I thank God everyday that I did not accept the narrative and kept fighting because I do not believe my son would be here today.
So sad, people got a rong diagnose tks to covid
We are in the middle of the nastiest illness I've ever seen in my daughter. We've been to an urgent clinic and the ER. We are seeing her pediatrician in a couple of hours. She's been tested for strep, mono, covid and the flu with all negatives. Were you getting positive covid tests? I've never had a child this sick without it being bacterial. I'm terrified they are missing a diagnosis. Thank you for sharing your experience.
@@jess758 the strep tests actually came up negative for us and we were told that they are only 50% accurate. I insisted that they take blood and that's when they found he was septic. He was having chest pains for a full week before he was diagnosed. It was the scariest time of my life... And his. COVID tests were all negative but they said that they were false negatives. They also said that the strep test was not a false negative... Go figure
So appalling that the NHS became so obsessed with covid, pathetic
One of the blessed ones
I had scarlet fever three years ago. I was told twice by local GPs it was viral. My husband drove me to the ER and they immediately put me on IV antibiotics for a week and then l had oral antis for another 8 weeks. The bacteria had gone into my blood stream and l ended up with strep septicaemia. If l hadn’t ignored the advice of my GP and gone to ER l would have died. Trust your instincts and never be afraid to get a 2nd/3rd opinion.
They're a lot more reluctant to use antibiotics than they were 10-20-30 years ago. This is because using them when not needed helps the bacteria mutate into ones that antibiotics can't help.
Today they are very much all about "we don't like to throw antibiotics at people". (I keep imagining the people standing up against a wall, possibly an indoor hospital wall, with antibiotics being thrown at them. Like paint, sort of. Interesting image.)
Point taken, but unfortunately they are soooo reluctant to give antibiotics when *not* needed, that it is often hard to get them when they *are* needed. 🙄
It's getting kind of crazy out there these days. 🙄
Congratulations on being brave enough (or do I mean scared enough?) to seek out another opinion.
Good job. Well done.
(You and your husband, *not* the GP.)
@@bumblebootwiddletoes5185 Also because it might be viral instead of bacterial.
Also because apparently the more you use them the more you (and/or the bacteria) can get immune to them (later on, not just during the same illness).
It's interesting and it's complicated.
And apparently very tricky sometimes.
But they still really should be using their *common sense* somewhat more.
(*If* they actually *have* any, that is. 😉)
Thank you John. The trust in public health is at an all time low. We need reliable health information to make informed decisions about treatment. Excellent information.
Should he have told you about studies demonstrating a link between live flu vaccines and streptococcus colonisation increases in mouse models?
@@tluk1900 Yes, because this is a postvaccine effect, because the immune systems are harmed and falling apart since the injected poisons. But, wait, because we haven't sen anything yet so far, because the worst is yet 2 come. Pwy.
You mate John will be recommending another 💉 to cure the problem the first 💉💉💉💉 and Nasal spays caused!!
So NOW everything has turned around and currently the truth is STARTING to come out. And now they are going to want us to NOT act like the NAZI jerks they where. This Nazi, and the MINIONS that cheered for them are NOT OF GODS MIND. Call yourselves Christian all you want.
But was your heart in it to resist and be brave, or did the fear take you? We forgive you, not just because we have no choice. But because that is how we are, the mind of Christ makes us like that. But you still need to be talking to God about it, in Jesus name because as the father in charge of punishment he is the one determining REPENTANCE!!
Every knows that in Revelations Chapter 6 the WHITE/RED/BLACK/PALE horses will ride. Causing people to take a scorpions tail (needle) (white horse). WARs, and rumors of war (Red horse), Prices of food and Energy and medicine and entertainment to rise(black horse). And death following(pale horse). And they knew that SOMEONE will come on the scene and SAVE THE WORLD from these things.
THIS SOMEONE (PERSON) is the FALSE PROPHET that will cause you to put your trust in the ANTI-Christ. So just keep looking for that person(while refusing Jabs). You will know they are the FALSE PROPHET, because that is what the bible says the false prophet does.
And PLEASE help me spread dumbed down message. Even a less complicated thinker will understand this.... SIDE NOTE: 1st Corinthians 6:19 "19 Do you not know that your bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit, who is in you, whom you have received from God? You are not your own;
1st Corinthians 3;16 you yourselves are Gods temple! and that gods spirit dwells in your midst.
You missed the first sign the mark of the beast. Don't fall for the other signs! Please! You can live in paradise.
Before the Fall Satan made sure there was PRIDE. This is why I said they are having DOCTORs and NURSES dance on TV and the social websites and getting PROMOTED to do so in early 2020 PRIDE.
PRIDE!!! Satan does not JUST need them to be on his side He wants PRIDE to keep them from REPENTING! . This is the way of NOT REPENTING AND BE LIABLE TO HELL. They can't admit they was wrong, and turn around! Why PRIDE. With all this evidence PRIDE! Sadly it is working on some 😔
Interesting I misspelled Medicine, it came out MEDICIDE! so naturally I looked it up! WOW. It's a word alright. Now the question is, is MEDICIDE closer to suicide or genocide(they wanted all doctors, nurses and blacks to take it first), or omnicide?!
One of the big reasons people will stop going to churches and protesting?? I'm going to tell you a conspiracy (since I am batting a 100%). The VACCINE, downgrades the vmat2 gene. Which gives you the RELIGIOUS zeal (right or wrong), dependence. The ability to stick to emotional indignation (right or wrong). This is way stronger than fluoride. This is also a big reason WHY there will be a great FALLING AWAY! I can not post links here you have to go to youtubes competitors for proof because they instantly block these link.

My mom was diagnosed with Scarlett Fever over 60 years ago and was given 48 hours to live. Thankfully she pulled through.
Especially for you.😘
My now 22yr old daughter got Scarlet Fever when she was 6 yrs old here in NSW, Australia...Not one doctor in the hospital diagnosed her correctly until a South African R.N came on shift and alerted them because of the large strawberry shape on her tongue and the raised rash all over her...she was put on a drip and sent home within 10hrs with oral anti biotics..she has had health problems on and off ever since. My now 21yr girl got it 14 days later and had to be hospitalized on a drip for 4 days..she is rarely sick! I'm not sure why she got it 14 days after when the incubation period is 7-10 days.. I was treated like an idiot by the triage nurse back then when I told her exactly what she had because of the time period! The triage tried to get us to sit with everyone else in the packed waiting room at Wyong Emergency..that's when I lost it and swore at them for putting everyone in risk in the room!! When my daughter was rushed by ambulance from Wyong to Gosford hospital..the triage nurse rudely said...Oh..you were right!!! I have only just started trusting one doctor after all these years..thank you Dr.John.. you really are CHANGE!!!
Well isn’t this kind of treatment exactly the reason for deaths..
2 of my children had Scarlet Fever 16 years ago (they were 9 & 6 then) and similar to yours, none of the doctors could diagnose it. By God's grace, one senior paediatrician diagnosed it for the older boy. The younger one was put on drips, and both were given erythromycin for 10 days.... very grateful to the Lord for the senior doctor who diagnosed the disease, and the junior doctor who listened and immediately started the antibiotics for the younger boy when I told him about the private doctor's diagnosis for the older boy..... not many doctors who'll listen! May the Lord protect all the children, wherever they may be.
@@saktikrishna4708 today, specially in Germany patients are only stupid, I do not go to dr anymore here. They make also mistakes and hygienia is very bad! They can have plastikgloves and touch everywere and put their hands in your open wound or mounth with this "sterile" gloves.
Fasting can help you recover and can fix your immune system to undo the damage! Some of the many benefits of doing occasional extended fasting: Fribrosis/scarring is reversed over time and telomeres are lengthened, which also helps with lung fibrosis. The hunger hormone ghrelin lowers with extended fasting and rises from dieting. Vitamin D plasma levels are increased, and vitamin D in turn increases autophagy! Fasts from 36-96 h actually INCREASE metabolic rate due to norepinephrine release! Reflexes and short term memory are increased.
Thymus is regenerated, which suppresses aging and renews the immune system.
Fasting stimulates phagocytosis, the ingestion of bacteria and viruses by the immune system.
Blood pressure is quickly and dramatically lowered, which is very important for a good outcome with the current pandemic.
Fasting increases nitric oxide, which has manifold postive effects like reducing arterial plaque.
Weight loss from fasting only loses10% lean tissue and 90% fat compared to the typical 25% lean tissue and 75% fat lost when calorically restricting for long periods.
Blood clotting is reduced and blood clots and arterial plaque are reabsorbed into the body.
Blood sugar and insulin are lowered, allowing white blood cells to move more freely throughout the body and do their job. Ideal blood sugar is around 80. Some viruses activate glycolosis (the release of sugar in the body) and clinically it has been shown that decreasing glucose metabolism in the body weakens the influenza virus.
When you move out of MTOR your body shuts down the building blocks of the cell which are used to produce organelles and proteins. This means the mechanisms needed by viruses to replicate are by and large unavailable when you are in a deeply fasted state.
What breaks a fast? Anything with protein or carbohydrates in it will break a fast, though if the amount is tiny you will go back into ketosis very quickly. Most teas and herbs are OK. Most supplements and meds will either break ketosis directly or contain a filler that will.
Does fasting lower testosterone? No, it raises it and helps build muscle by increasing insulin sensitivity!
Fasts of several days will not affect short term female fertility and may increase long term fertility especially in women with PCOS.
The hormone Leptin is an immunomodulator that keeps the body from attacking itself and obesity causes leptin resistance. Fasting very quickly reduces leptin resistance and leptin levels and one day of fasting can cut your leptin levels in half and gets your immune system working properly again!
Does the body preferentially prefer glucose as a fuel? No, your body always runs mainly on fat except for brief periods of very intense exercise. Your brain also prefers to burn ketones at a rate of around 2.5 to 1 when they are available in equal quantity to glucose.
Fasting stimulates the AMPK complex and activates autophagy. Autophagy (literally self eating) will cause cells to recycle foreign matter such as viruses and kill cancerous and senescent cells. AMPK does many helpful things in the body including activating the body's antioxidant defenses.
Deep ketosis virtually eliminates chronic inflammation in the body. This can offset the life threatening symptoms of viral pneumonia which effectively kills you through inflammation. This also creates BHB ketones in your body, which also help your immune system and anti-oxidative system, especially in the brain. Ketones also provide an additional energy source during infection, which is critical when trying to fight off a bug. In fact you can have as much as three times the total energy available in your blood when you are in deep ketosis, or even more.
It increases mitochondrial function and repairs mitichondrial DNA, leading to improved ATP production and oxygen efficiency and thereby making cells better able to fight off infection. Increased mitochondrial function also has the added benefit of increasing your metabolism and cancer prevention!
After 72 hours or more fasted, your body recycles large numbers of immune bodies and creates new ones, rejuvenating your entire immune system.
When you fast, this stimulates apoptosis in senescent or genetically damaged cells. This kills these cells off completely. Senescent cells are responsible for the effects of aging and are the root cause of the development of cancer. If it were possible to destroy them all it would completely stop aging and cancer. That is not possible but fasting can help limit these effects by killing off many of the affected cells and limiting the future effects of aging.
Fasting also releases BDNF and NGF in the blood which stimulates new nerve and brain cell growth, helping a great deal with diseases like MS, peripheral neuropathy and Alzheimers.
In fact, the biochemical regulator of BDNF production is beta-hydroxybutyrate, which is the same ketone the body produces to nourish the brain while fasting.
Losing weight through intermittent fasting shows greater reduction in waist size and increase in insulin sensitivity for the same weight lost and alternate day fasters were shown to lose fat while gaining muscle at the same time over a six month period.
Fasting reverses metabolic syndrome, which is tightly correlated to Chronic Fatiguque Syndrome, high blood pressurecancer and many other chronic diseases.
Fasting has been shown to increase bone marrow volume by 10% and levels of carnosine in the body in as little as a few weeks.
Fasting also increases telomere length, negating some of the effects of aging at a cellular level.
A fasting mimicking diet for 3-5 days in a row also provides many of the same benefits as water fasting. FMD usually has 200-800 calories, under 18 g of protein and under 18 g of carb.
Eating one meal a day can bring most of these benefits to a lesser degree, and adding a few entire days off from eating per week will have even more effect especially when starting to feel poorly.
Exogenous ketones can aid with fasting, making it easier in healthy people and allowing some people with specific issues to fast in spite of them without worrying as much about hypoglycemia.
Children, pregnant or nursing women should not fast for periods longer than 16 hours. People with pancreatic tumors or certain forms of hypoglycemia generally cannot fast at all. Type 1 diabetics can also fast but it is more complicated and should be approached with caution as it could lead to ketoacidosis. Those with Addison's disease may also be unable to fast without liberal use of exogenous ketones, depending on severity. If you experience extreme symptoms of some kind, especially dizziness then simply break the fast and seek advice.

Interesting.
My aunty also in NSW is a senior professor / nurse who advised the un on midwifery as well as working at the university.
Her granddaughter got it and her daughter in law took her to the hospital and they also misdiagnosed.
Luckily my aunty got to see her and went mad at them.
They wouldn't listen to her until she identified her self with regards to her medical qualifications and current employment as a professor within the medical industry as one of the most senior nurses in the world.
Luckily she was old enough to remember exactly what scarlet fever looked like.
But I don't know what would have happened if she was anyone else?!.
I’m glad you have avoided any of the crazy mobs going after anyone speaking the truth! Continue to do so! Thanks so much!
He’s protected by all of us good energy
If he was actually speaking the truth, he would have been removed from TH-cam a long time ago. That’s who you should be listening to. The removed.
@@theredboneking I think he makes it pretty clear, when he can’t say something, that you should look to another source for the info he’s trying to point out.
What truth are you referring to?
@@AttRandyReynolds clearly you don’t watch regularly.
My now 31 year old son developed rheumatic fever after strep throat infection when he was 9.
I had the fight of my life trying to get it diagnosed and was dismissed as a neurotic mother at one point. Never give up on that motherly instinct!!
*Textme 👆 for proper mentorship and consultation*
It happened to me when my daughter was 10 maths old. I knew she had something, I feared meningitis and it was the deadly one. I caught it in a few hours. This one doc asked where I got my MD. Her doc ordered a spinal at the hospital and it came back positive in less than an hour. This was close to 40 years ago. She lived and she had a bit of a personality change when she got older. I'm so glad her doc was on top of it.
Amazing video and thank you for breaking it down!! Despite the economic downturn, I'm so happy, I have been earning $ 60,000 returns from my $7,000 investment every 12days.
Wow! How's that possible please I'll appreciate your assistance on how to go about it.
That's awesome. I dealt with crypto last year on Robinhood, tried some index but didn't take it out so I lost it by the end. Any consistent strategies?
@@pau640 Consistently investing with proper guidance in quality dividend paying companies is a relatively easy strategy to create wealth. Well I copy trades from daily signals of Mrs Benito Revilla as recommended here previously

Thank you, my granddaughter (age 6) had Strep throat last month. I had Scarlet Fever in 1959, at 3 years. Our house was quarantined by public health, only my mother was allowed to remain in the home to care for me. My father and the other children went to live with my grandmother. All of my garments were put in the incinerator. I don't think there was any antibiotic treatment at the time. I remember wearing nightgowns my grandmother made from dad's army air corp parachute. Silk . . . the only thing that my mother could put on me because of the feverish rash on my little body.
At 6 in 1956 Mom said my face was the color RED. They gave me giant candy-like penicillin tablets. Scarlet Fever. America.
That sounds so awful. Reminds me of when we got chicken pox. Scratched it and it got infected. It was so bad.
Geez 😒
I also had Scarlet fever in 1959. It was New Year's Eve, I was 2 years old and my parents were quarantined. Mom and Dad sitting at each end of the couch drinking champagne, didn't realize I was going back and forth between the two of them sipping champagne, until I stood in the middle of the couch and yelled two free then proceeded to jump in the middle of the coffee table. 😂
My family all had Scarlet Fever including me. My daughter had Strep Throat a few times before she got her tonsils out. We got over it
Thank you as always Dr Campbell, your time, work and effort is very much appreciated.
Scary whenever kids get sick like this. Thank you Dr. great discussion. Oh, great background as well.
Thank you John, my heart goes out to the parents who have lost their babies to this. I got rhumatic fever in 1973 aged 8, I only just managed to get the school bus home but I didn't make it home, my arms and legs wouldn't work and my dad found me draped over a wall when I didn't arrive home on time, he came looking for me, he carried me home and sent for the doctor who came to our house, he immediately rang for an ambulance and I was hospitalised for 2 week's. Luckily I haven't had any problems with my heart.
Glad you recovered. Thank God for dad.
Thank you :)
Very lucky! My mother has it as a child too and her heart was destroyed by it. She didn’t discover that until she was in her late 40s and his heart surgeries to replace the damaged valves but still died at 54.
@@blair7764 I'm so sorry to hear that, yes I was very lucky.
You are superb at explaining medical conditions. Thank you for all your hard work.
So much respect for you and your reporting!!! Thank you for keeping us informed...🙋♀️
John Do you think this may be related to the flu mist programme currently for children in the UK? Strep infection is listed as a possible side effect. Source WHO Vagiaccess.
It would be interesting to know if those who have recently died from Strep
A had recently had the flu mist medication.
My daughter has been fighting strep for a month on and off, she’s never had the “mist” or any of the recent vaccines
I had Scarlett fever followed by Rheumatic fever when I was about 5 years old. It gave a heart murmur that stayed with me until I was in my twenties. Thank God He was watching out for me and pulled me through.
I had Scarlet Fever in 1966 aged 7 and I remember being packed off to paternal grandmothers home for 3 weeks as both my parents worked. My younger brother then got it so to keep him company I was kept off school for another three weeks. I don't remember there being great concern about my health other than taking medicine and having to spend most of the time in the bedroom with a colouring book.

My 8 y/o daughter has had strep throat THREE times in the last year and has never had it before this!
We also found out she is allergic to penecilin (Amoxicillin is the antibiotic of choice for group A strep) the first time she was treated, as she developed a horrible full-body rash. I hated putting her on antibiotics that much but I know you can't just ignore strep.
This is very concerning.
When I was 12 (1975), I got it over and over for about a year.
@@MissNancyThanks for sharing. I hope we have a similar experience and we're done!
There's something called an amoxicillin rash that mimics an allergic reaction but isn't. Lots of people who think they're allergic aren't. I'm not saying that's your daughter, but possible.
www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3944816/
I am also allergic to most antibiotics. It sucks.
Funny I was a pediatric nurse for 20 years and my own child is totally vax free and I have never seen a vax free child with anything but a cold for a few days. He’s grown up in his fathers pharmacy around sick people his whole life and he is the healthiest person I know.. same for his vax free peers. He’s never even had medicine prescription or otc, nothing
High five. I have 4 unvaccinated children. Hardly ever sick. Never had an ear infection. No allergies no autoimmune super smart super healthy. I do not regret my decision they are aged 3-16
Good grief. As a pediatric nurse for twenty years have you ever seen a child with polio?
Ali you are wide awake, agreed! And huge respect
@@chapman9230 no have you seen many with myocarditis?
@@chapman9230 "saved them" from polio and gave them autism adhd cancer allergies and a effed up immune system.

Boy, have I been waiting for your take on this! Well done Doc.
@Albert Bundy probably just worried about his/her kid/kids and wants the viewpoint of someone he trusts.
Take it on? Look i like this doctor/nurse but I mean hes just repeating info that is everywhere. Stop treating him like a God! Weird
Re: amoxicillin shortage in the US. ASHP is reporting shortages from 5 of our biggest generic drug manufacturers. Mostly, it's certain doses or certain package sizes (ie a bottle with 80mL vs a bottle with 500mL) of the oral suspension. Likely, this is just because of higher than normal demand for empiric antibiotics we're seeing here. Thanks for the quick review of GAS and scarlet fever! It's nice to be able to talk openly and directly about a disease without having to use innuendo or refer to TH-cam censorship guidelines. This talk is what medical updates should sound like rather than what we're obliged to listen to with ... other diseases and alleged treatments or preventative measures. Thanks for the work you do
Penicillin and keflex both work well for strep. Penicillin doesn’t taste good but I usually tell my patients to refrigerate it or mix in some flavoring or mix it in some rich chocolate milk.
No shortage of clotshots that don't help anyone against anything mind you.
There are shortages of all sorts of meds, and it's a supply chain issue. We need to manufacture in our own country, not depend on, or wait for arrival from halfway across the world.
Censorship of medical information costs lives.
@@lisaelias300 that is true of everything. Medicine, food, goods, everything. The globalists say they care about the environment and at the same time oppose national independence by shipping things all over the world.

Funny how they all had the nasal spray 2 weeks ago
Scarlet fever killed my Grandmothers Twin on my Mom's side and I had Scarlet fever in 1969 and I was Photographed for the New England Med Journal . Thank the Lord they saved me .
As a child I got strep 2 or 3 times a year. My dad was a microbiologist so he was able to take my culture at home and get antibiotics from the hospital he was at.
When I got it as an adult, I had 2 boys. When the nurse asked if I wanted liquid or the shot, I asked her what the difference was... she told me she has had people tell her that when they took the shot they never got it again. I took the shot, and I have never had it again. My boys never got it again either. This was in 1995.
What kind of shot ?
Found on masks after continuous wearing. Breathing it in. Test the masks.

My son had scarlett fever a few years ago. Thankfully the doctor diagnosed it right away and gave him antibiotics.
Thank god for this channel! So much useful information gave me peace of mind 👍
I had scarlet fever in September 1947, 11 years old. I remember a very painful throat condition. I was hospitalised and my sisters quarantined from work for a week or more. In those days no visiting or phone calls. I was delirious when taken to hospital by ambulance. The hospitals gave us a number each and these were published in the evening gazette each day together with information of one's condition. I was on the "very ill" list for some days as I developed a painful ear infection and was given penicillin injections in my bottom every 3 hours day and night. I was in hospital for 3 weeks followed by 3 weeks convalescence.
Thank you for this video. It seems now we are going back to the 1940s here in the UK. Cant get to see a gp (unless perhaps you pay for it) . Old diseases are re appearing. TB, scarlet fever, STDs Antibiotics appear to be banned. Hospitals are overwhelmed and understaffed. What on earth is going on ?

As a teacher I'm being asked about this by many a worried parent - thank you so much for giving such an informative video I can now share with them!
Thanks John for another video which was quite welcome on a screen in my home today. => Good to hear a voice of reason and decreased alarm. Serious and deadly for very few, no chance of the UK having a real shortage of antibiotics - less than 1,000 cases would not be anticipated to stress the UK’s pharmacies and you related several methods to move past any shortage that might occur. => Thanks again for the voice of reason to a situation which will involve some, be serious to relative few and serious or tragic for perhaps tens of people. => Thamks again John for all you do and who you are.

I had scarletina when i was 18,in the army..After vaccinations funnily enough. Anyway, my throat was razor blades and stinging sore with white crap on the tonsils and a rash all over my chest and arms. Felt like the flu really with an extra sore throat
We had all these 6 months ago in Australia, the strep throat was insane, but it went away without treatment. All the kids at our kindergarten copped it too, but no major issues. Everyone's a lot stronger now and no more illness really. ( NO DOCTOR APPOINTMENT WA AVAILABLE FOR 3 WEEKS DUE TO MASSIVE BACK LOGS EVERYWHERE, BY THE TIME I GOT THERE HE SAID IT WAS OVER). The winter backlog was intense.
Nice, big fan of let the immune system deal with it, under careful monitoring and observation...OF COURSE.
Scarlett fever or Strep throat?
Were they vaccinated against the covid? If not, that's most likely why they gots it. You need to talk the parents into getting their kids vaccinated with a Pfizer or Moderna jab then make sure they catch up on all the necessary boosters.
@@patjohnson742 are you a psychopath? Leave the kids alone from that poison,you on Mr gates payroll?
@@patjohnson742 strep has no correlation to covid vax ...
Dont fall for their next fear campaign. Both my children had scarlet fever caught at a play date when they were toddlers 10yrs ago. A lot of children have this every year, going completely unregistered. Most young drs and nurses don't know what it looks like so it never gets noted. My sons were covered in sandpaper tiny red dots and medics arent used to recognising it. Both my local drs didnt diagnose it. My er didnt recognise it. It took an old retired nurse who spotted it straight away. I went back to my drs so he could register it. He refused. My sons got no medicines. The same happened with whooping cough. I have no faith in medics now. Dont believe the hype they're trying to keep us separated again and keep us in fear. Our diets and conditions are much better than the 1940's.
Amen to that👍
Excellent review Dr Campbell 👍
Thank you!
Four weeks ago all primary school kids had the flu nasal spray vaccine... now Strep A deaths are high among those same primary school kids...
A huge blasts of virus up each nostril, pushing anything already in the nose through the sinuses and lungs etc.
Has flu ever been a serious risk to primary school kids?
Such a good comment 👏 not all children...the parents had to consent
No and i bet the parents didn't ask to see what ingredients were in it.Its the poor kids that suffer.
Why i refuse it for my kids.
Recognised side effect of flu mist...streptococcus infection. WHO vagiaccess as source...
I didn't give my consent, and filled in the online form confirming that.
Hopefully, the nurses didn't spray my child.

Rheumatic heart disease killed many people in my age cohort (70's, born in the late 1940's and 1950's) while they were in their 20's and 30's. It's very sad if you don't treat the disease right away.
Why are they Trying to kill our children?????
I had Covid and strep 3 .5 weeks ago. I'm 57 and still recovering. I haven ever had strep in my life until now.
My mom had scarlet fever as a small child in the 1940s. It was unheard of when I was growing up in the 1960s, and when my children were little in the 1980s. Mind you, strep throat was quite common. I just didn't know they were related. My son had trouble with his sinuses as a child, especially in winter, which caused chronic sore throat. To avoid taking him to his pediatrician weekly for strep testing, his school would simply notify me if there was a strep outbreak. Whenever I received such notice I simply took my son in for testing. Sometimes he had strep, but most often he did not. Then his pediatrician joined the only other pediatric practice in town. I never knew which pediatrician would be seeing my children, or even if they would only be seen by the Nurse Practitioner. I wasn't happy with the arrangement, mainly because the staff were generally dismissive of concerns, and prone to scold. In fact, the first summer, I was notified by someone that her children had been found to have scabies. Our children played together, so naturally I was on the lookout for extreme itchiness of the legs. But I didn't know what scabies welts look like, so I guess I took them in too many times to have it checked, and at the third appointment the staff scolded me for wasting their resources. And so when my children actually began showing signs of scabies, I had them too! They were spread all up the legs of everyone in the family! Come the winter and my son's school notifying me about strep throat going around, I took him in for testing as usual. After only the second time, both times getting negative results, the staff once again scolded me for wasting their resources. Not once was I able to request being seen by my son's pediatrician who knew his life history. I was told you get who you get when you make sick check appointments. And the pediatrician who saw my son the second time I was notified that strep was going around had the nerve to scold me! At that time I was pretty meek and trusting of medical professionals, so the next time I received a notification that strep was going around the school, I obediently did not take him to the pediatric office for testing. I had to keep him home from school, though, because they don't allow children with sore throat to be in the classroom without a doctor's note. He missed a lot of school. And then one day he developed the scarlet rash. I was able to get him in to be seen by the pediatric practice, and was assigned to a doctor who had never seen my son. In fact, neither of my children was ever seen by the same pediatrician twice, and never once by their own pediatrician. Since my son had a rash we had to go in a separate entrance and wait in a separate waiting room. And when the pediatrician finally saw my son, he scolded me! Threatened to report me for neglect of my child! That was the end of my meekness right then and there. I scolded him right back about the entire practice scolding me for wasting their resources to test for strep, advising me not to bring my son in for testing every time I received notification from his school. I informed the pediatrician that the multi-doctor practice committed malpractice twice in my family's case, the second time putting my son's life at risk, and if they were more concerned about conserving their precious resources than actually protecting the health of their patients, then I was never again taking my children to their place of business. And I didn't. I asked my own physician if he would be able to accept my children as patients, and he agreed, even with my son's history requiring multiple tests for strep throat each winter. He said he didn't understand the reluctance of the multi-pediatric practice because the tests aren't really all that expensive, especially considering the risk to the undiagnosed patient. That was back in the 1980s in the US, just as health care costs were beginning to explode due to the policies of health insurance companies and more patients becoming insured. It was only due to rising costs that I even took on medical coverage. Until then I was able to afford to pay out of pocket for all our medical bills.

@@franceslock1662 my personal experience is the opposite
At 15:49, Dr. Campbell gave one of his voice inflections, meaning he is not really saying what he means. It had to do with pediatricians making decisions. So what options do we use?

My 34 yr old daughter apparently had a strepA/rheumatic infection concurrent with mono that didn't get caught by the doc. She was 14.

It would be interesting if somebody did a study of immune sufficiency for children including Vitamin D. Even if immune sufficiency hasn’t changed over 2019-2022, perhaps a program could be used to upgrade immune sufficiency to head off this immune deficiency which at least partly is caused by isolation.

Nice to see how the posters have changed.. Or should I say, a tragedy that it must be stated. Your careful coverage of the evidence throughout has been legendary. One of the heros of our time.
I too had Scarlet Fever at age 4 and was hospitalised (I'm now 72). My mum used to tell me I went kicking and screaming into the ambulance, swearing at the ambulance crew! More recently, at the end of October this year, my niece and her family were visiting from up north (UK). Her 7-yr-old daughter had all the symptoms of Tonsillitis. But, to our great surprise, upon being taken to the nearest 'walk-in' clinic she was diagnosed with Scarlet Fever, given antibiotics and was promptly taken back up north so as to avoid transmission to the other children who were visiting us. Thankfully, she has made a full recovery. My heart goes out to the families who have lost their precious little ones to this infection. Thank you for all you do Dr Campbell. Best wishes to you and yours for a very Happy Christmas and a safe New Year!
I am happy your niece has recovered. I did not know one could die from this so am grateful to Dr. Campbell for this and all his videos.
I believe I had it as a child also given the condition my heart was in. I am thinking that penicillin was all they may have had that long ago and I'm allergic to it.

I had a pretty severe case of Strep/Scarlet fever at 9 years old in 1973 over thanksgiving. I remember being really out of it with fever. Never hospitalized but the most worried I’d ever seen my mom.

Hello Sarah
How are you doing today?
I want to know how many of these chilfren had the jab?
When my children were growing up our Pediatrician did a strep test every time my children were sick. I didn’t understand it then but now I understand it and am glad they were so careful.
Prior to that rapid test being available , children with fevers or sore throats were put on 10 days worth of Amoxicillin or Penicillin V before serious complications arose. I remember that when I was a child in the 1980s.
In the US they still do this, and give antibiotics with the first sign of a positive test. My son just had strep 2 weeks ago and was given antibiotics right away. I'm amazed that this isnt common practice in other countries.
@@beebee2781 My grandchildren’s pediatricians who are in the US aren’t doing this. My daughter and daughter in laws are going to ask their pediatricians to start doing the strep test when their children have fevers.
This is why the US hopefully won’t see the same issues. They routinely test anyone who comes in with symptoms of sore throat and other strep symptoms. In the UK you can’t see a doctor easily, and when you do they do not test for strep A as standard. The guidance says it’s not cost effective. You are told it’s viral and sent on your merry way. Look at the reports from the parents of some of those poor children, they were sent away, not tested etc. Yes cases are exploding but in the UK the healthcare is to blame and covid with weakening the immune system which we can’t just turn a blind eye on, yet everyone has.
@@melw2260 Depends on the doctor. As for me, I keep a supply of Penicillin V, Doxycycline and Ciprofloxacin on hand at all times. I also know when each one is indicated. Doctors in the United States can be just as bad following the garbage spewed from the CDC. This is my assessment based on how I was treated/not treated for respiratory infections long before they mucked up COVID.
What profoundly useful content, thank you.
Up North (Canada), my Dad lost 7 siblings to Scarlet Fever. Only his brother survived when it went through the family.
Thank you Dr Campbell. I'm loving the background posters! (They may have been there already, but I'm blind as a bat workout my glasses; just noticed today)
Had the 9 children who have sadly died been given the flu nasal spray ? I’ve seen suggestion that that may be linked
Lancefield group A beta haemolytic Streptococcus.(Glomerulus not glomelulus😀)This resurgence is probably due to GPs not prescribing Penicillin V for upper respiratory infections. Another unintentional consequence of not thought through dictums from on high.
Great video as usual.
When I was a child in the 1980s, going to the doctor for a sore throat or fever meant a prescription for Amoxicillin or Penicillin V. No questions asked. No waiting until it turned into a more serious infection.
Amoxicillin is a bit Ill advised for sore throats because it can cause allergic rashes more commonly than in other situations and can unnecessarily stop it being prescribed subsequently for other indications. Not a major problem though.
Also these days antibiotics do not get prescribed even when the infection is lower respiratory or the cough has persisted for a long time. Pertussis is another infection that is susceptible to antibiotics when treated early.
First off, I adore you and your channel ❤
I work in a pharmacy and I can tell you that 100% antibiotics are on a shortage. I tried ordering penicillin V solution this week and all suppliers were out of stock. I was able to get some amoxicillin and also non sugar free erythromycin.
We can't crush tablets and create our own solutions in house because that changes the licence of the drug. Those days of creating our own products stopped long ago. These are now called 'specials' and we have to order via specific companies.
But good news, our doctors are readily prescribing antibiotics instead of delaying treatment. This week alone our antibiotic dispensing has increased threefold.
Shortages could explain why it took 3 weeks for my GP (I begged 3 different GPs to prescribe a 7 day treatment/ course of antibiotics) to prescribe amoxycillin for my 4 year old I asked for in November last year.
Two female doctors from Abingdon Surgery OX14 didn't even want to see the child, I was lucky to get an appointment with a male GP who still cared. I asked the receptionist for "someone who cared"!
And even he didn't prescribe the antibiotics for 7 days as I insisted on, only for 5 days, which wasn't enough, but nevertheless helped little bit with symptoms of cold dragging for 2 months.
Hope JC notes your comment abd investigates more
I heard that the shortage is because we get a lot of our drugs made in China, and because of the issues there, it has created this issue. Working as a pharmacist, do you think this might be true?
I had strep throat for any years.. I moved around Canada every few years or months. InCanada health care is provincial so there were no available records. Finally after years of suffering a doctor believed me and I was able to have a tonsillectomy at 32 years old. Never had strep again.
Canada's health care needs to be nationally reported, otherwise how can it possibly keep track of illness? Insane system 😳
@Pat Jackson . Interesting. Do you think tonsils and strep are linked? I’m 62 and had my tonsils removed at age 4. I’ve never had strep. So glad you’ve been doing better.
I have a similar Canadian story, I didn't move around but I had to beg my GP to take my tonsils out after years of strep throat infections
I had strep several times in the same year around age 12... The final time I became allergic to the penicillin part way through the course of medicine from having it so many times in a row and got over the strep the rest of the way without any medicine and I've never had strep since... Interestingly I know around 10 kids who in the last 5 to 10 years had their tonsils out because of reoccurring strep cases and they are still getting strep regularly
Finally quality content about Strap A on internet.
Thank you so much John, for covering this.

After COVID, we got Monkeypox and Strep A. I stopped watching this channel once COVID technically faded away from the media but I’ve been awaiting this video since Strep A came in. I think we might be seeing another pandemic begin now but take that with a grain of salt.
Bacterial infection likely to be bad in people whose immune system has been damaged by a previous emergency medication.
@@Jo-sp5cp Well said!
@@Jo-sp5cp bullshit! my sons riddled with it at the min and he had no rotshot, ive a bad immune system already from lung problems but a previous infection in 89 seems to have provided me with decent defenses against it
@@whitetroutchannel well obviously other things can also cause a damaged immune system. If you are immuno compromised in any way this will be bad.
I don’t even want to think about a bacterial pandemic. But they’re becoming so resistant to antibiotics it could be a matter of time.
amoxicillin is a good antibiotic, so is azithromycin. Both of those have saved my butt a few times.
I'm glad you have plenty of antibiotics in the UK, a lady I work with is having trouble finding a pharmacy locally (southwestern Michigan, USA) that isn't out of whatever antibiotic her child's doctor has prescribed. It blows my mind that we could possibly have an antibiotic shortage - what the heck?
This is the best presentation I have heard on Strep . Thank you Dr. Campbell for this erudite presentation. I had my tonsils out at age 70 because I was septic from strep in my tonsils and all antibiotic’s stopped working. It was a matter of life and death.
Big Pharma rears it ugly dragon head again! The USA is turning into a third world medical country run by Big Pharma, the Feds and the communists in the White House. No antibiotics to treat strep! PLEASE! More eugenics.
We dont according to MSM daily mail says there is a shortage in UK
Great information! I wish I knew this when my children were young.
I had a mild case scarletina as a child in the early 1960's during an outbreak in Philadelphia area... Fortunately for me I was on a sulfa drug at the time for something else as there were many deaths in that outbreak. Mind you my mom only remembered that I had a rash while on the sulfa drug when I asked her about medicine allergies in my 20's, in the last 4 years, before her death last year, she remembered that the rash was from the scarlet fever and not the sulfa drug that slowed the disease progression. My hands peeled as a result of the fever.
Thank you so much for posting your story. I had a similar experience as a child. High fever, rash, and the odd ( skin peeling on my hands). We had a family Dr in those days who did house calls. However we did visit his office, and he diagnosed scarlet fever. My Mothers face turned very white, but I survived.
How frightening for a child. With antibiotics available it’s negligent not to give them.
I had scarletina also when I was very young. I am allergic to sulfa so I have no idea what they did.
Is scarletina the same as scarlet fever?
I believe I had scarletina... my mum not here any more to find out...
We just had a nine year old girl die in British Columbia Canada. Parents had her at the hospital twice and was sent home told it was just a flu. She was covered in a rash. A second doctor overrode the first and she ended up in ICU but it was too late. She was sepsis and sadly died. 🙁
so sad, my heartfelt sympathy to her parents and famiy
Wow, that’s infuriating! Strep is so treatable and the symptoms are quite obvious especially if it develops into Scarlett fever. Just…absolutely tragic. The apparent incompetence is unbelievable! My heart goes out to that girl and her family.
Today our NZ Medical care for Nz Auckland Starship Hospital, will preform heart surgery on Baby Will. The family have ask them to use donors who are free from a certain substance that alot of people were conned to put in them. They admitted that it contains mrna for two weeks. Nz blood have no stand downs and refuse their requests. They had approved donors. The Hospital took the parents to court, to take their rights as parents to keep there baby safe. The Hospital has the parents locked in the room at the hospital. They have amazing strength and faith . Nz media are spinning the information the doctors are closed minded, it's a big deal for all of us world wide. Contaminated blood concerns all of us, we're their is risk there should be choice.
Doc..youre great we love your awesome info...Hang in there....
Thanks for covering this, I've been waiting, I will have to watch this tomorrow morning. My 3 children got Strep infection plus my partner has got it more badly than my kids, seen doc they all got antibiotics....I'm the only 1 who not got this as yet touch wood. Looking forward to watching your in put on this. Will msg back once I've watch your in put. Thanks for covering this :)
Our daughter ended up with Scarlett Fever at age 6 in 1999, high fever, rash all over body including palms and soles, red tongue. The doctor had no clue and refused antibiotics until testing returned positive 24hrs later, then called me and demanded I immediately go and get the antibiotic. By this point she was in so much pain you couldn't touch her and her temp was over 104. I had to wait hours before her father returned from work. To this day she experiences many health issue, low digestive enzymes, what is called idiopathic tachycardia which she had no history of before the illnes. She was healthy and all the unhealthy seemed to start after this, not a nice bacterium. Thank you for letting many know about this
Common sense advise: Wear a mask and wash hands often.
"Group A strep bacteria often live in the nose and throat. People who are infected spread the bacteria by talking, coughing, or sneezing, which creates respiratory droplets that contain the bacteria.
people can get sick if they:
Breathe in respiratory droplets that contain the bacteria
Touch something with those droplets on it and then touch their mouth or nose
Drink from the same glass or eat from the same plate as a person infected with group A strep
Thank you Dr. Campbell. My son who is now 14 had it when he was 2. He was pretty bad off. Our doctor said he had either Kawasaki's disease or Scarlett Fever. Thankfully it was Scarlett fever and he recovered after antibiotics. I had never seen him so lethargic and haven't to this day. So thankful for antibiotics.
