The research going on around the world regarding a treatment or perhaps a preventive measure using CBD against COVID-19 is getting truly impressive. While I am certain a vaccine will be approved and available to the public before years end, one must question the cost of developing these drugs. The following is a little background and a little preaching, so please forgive me.

Why is the media coverage surrounding COVID-19 not telling us about what each individual can do FOR THEMSELVES nutritionally in an effort to build their immune competency to resist and overcome corona virus infection?

Why is the narrative all about how the pharmaceutical industry is going to “SAVE” us? Could it have something to do with the fact that the pharma-controlled media wants to convince us that we must spend billions of dollars and wait for big pharma to come to the rescue with new, expensive, proprietary and patented anti-viral drugs and a magical vaccine to rescue us from COVID-19. Therefore “allowing” us to return to normal life?

I’m not even saying that it’s only nutritional options and natural alternatives that are being shunned. Even inexpensive, easy to access drugs like Hydroxychloroquine and Azithromycin with zinc are being played down, despite studies from around the world showing it’s efficacy. And, with a history of use for over 60 years in millions of people, it has proven to have an excellent safety record as compared to many other pharmaceutical drugs. A course of treatment is under $30 compared to Remdesivir, which costs more than $3,000. You can be sure that the antiviral drugs being developed for COVID-19 will probably exceed that cost. Let’s be honest; inexpensive, safe drugs or natural alternatives like herbal or nutritional compounds won’t provide big pharma with the big payday they are banking on from COVID-19.

Did you know the military requires our soldiers to take Hydroxychloroquine when serving in mosquito infested locations. Well it does, and the military has used this drug for 40 to 50 years.

Imagine taking a daily dose of VitaminCBD or 2Path to strengthen your immune system, and you just don't get the virus (or a cold or the flu for that matter). The problem is such a usage would not be proof --- it would only be antidotal. My wife and I have taken CBD daily for nine or ten months now, and we have not had a cold, the flu, and certainly not COVID-19 so far --- and, we have been out and about during this time of the virus.

Enough of the preaching. Wear a mask when you need to, wash your hands often, and take CBD if you can afford to buy it. You may not realize the benefit right away, but over time you just might go hmmmmm. Then, a light might go on when you remember back and start thinking about the fact that you have not been sick for months.

The cost is not that great, and the cost of using even over-the-counter cough medicine is a whole lot higher. Just a thought, and yes, a little preaching so please forgive me.
