Dementia, Alzheimer's most common comorbidities

If you fall outside the stats it certainly should alleviate worries about covid.
Good article. Now if only the government would read it.

"Dementia and Alzheimer’s disease were the most common medical conditions associated with all of the COVID-19 deaths reported in 2020, according to a new report from Statistics Canada."

"StatCan reported that since 95 per cent of Canadians who died of COVID-19 in 2020 were older than 65, the comorbidities reported on death certificates were “largely driven by age,” but added that “comorbidities were clearly present in the majority of COVID-19 deaths regardless of age.”

"Three common comorbidities reported on the younger age cohorts’ COVID-19 death certificates were diabetes, nervous system disorders, such as Parkinson’s, and obesity."

What some of us have been saying along...not much worst the the annual Flu season...but look at the devastation is caused to our economy and our well being.

From January 2021 to early February 2021, there were 31,509 deaths in Canada. This amounts to 2.1%, or 658, more deaths than expected if there were no pandemic, after accounting for changes in the population, such as aging. While some of these excess deaths may be related to indirect effects of the pandemic or other unrelated factors, they are still largely explained by the deaths attributed directly to COVID-19.

Pretty much a given...not really a 'reason' to die from Covid...but if it adds to the stats to make it look worse than it was .....

Of all COVID-19 deaths in 2020, dementia or Alzheimer's was reported on 36% of COVID-19 death certificates. However, the frequency with which it was reported varied between women and men. It was the most common comorbidity among women, reported on 41% of records, whereas for men, it was the second most common comorbidity, reported on 31% of records. These results can be partly explained by the age and sex profile of Canadians who died of COVID-19 in 2020: 63% of women who died of COVID-19 were older than 85, whereas 47% of men who died of COVID-19 were older than 85. According to the Public Health Agency of Canada, about 1 in 4 Canadians aged 85 or older live with dementia or Alzheimer's.

This is the stuff, that gets under my skin.

95% of all fatalities are seniors. Given the atrocious conditions in LTCs where I’m sure a very high percentage of residents suffer from those. What a “shock”........not.

Now weigh the cost. All of them, both obvious and less obvious. Now consider we left leaning, woke, progressive Canadians are more than happy to throw the less fortunate under the bus and small businesses. But step up, help? Willing take small pay cuts or taxes. Nope. It’s survival of the fittest. Does Fords waist line look like it’s suffered at all?

Comorbidities.
Personally, I have zero issues with Covid being listed. The vast majority of underlying conditions, are perfectly survivable. Be they Chrones, Asthma, or obesity. And then came 2020...

See sugar diets.

And I suppose, twenty years from now when Covid 40 hits. And people with compromised lungs/hearts start dropping. :)

So many things we should have done ( like closing intl travel), could have done ( protect the vulnerable), acquired vaccines, etc.

But, this is Canada.....where the left likes to claim a lot of things. Yet results speak for themselves.

One of my sister-in-laws worked at a nursing home - in the area where people with dementia and Alzheimers patents were housed - she said that many were there just waiting to die - it was so sad to see spouses come to visit a person and that person didn't even recognize them - many when they had a sane moment told her that they wished they could die - there is a time when it is time to let go - there is a time when we all have to die and if the quality of life is bad - its time to go - I think when your mind goes you are not enjoying life anymore - we all have our own thought about dying - many are afraid to die because they don't know what is going to happen - others don't even want to think about it - others think a better place awaits them - personally if my mind goes I don't want to hang around just waiting to die and being a burden on others - I hope and pray when my turn comes it is a quicky and at an opportune time -

Let me leave you with this one thought - if we didn't have to die there would be no justice - because those who were evil in this life would not have to account for their behavior in this life -

Normally I would wade in here, both because I worked for 32 years specifically ,dealing with those with dementia, and my opinion on an ‘afterlife ‘. But in the spirit of the holiday, I will just say each to their own beliefs.

I still recall a cousins approach to matters, as he saw it: If you live long enough, you eventually die of something. He did.

It's clear that conditions like dementia and Alzheimer's are common in COVID cases among older people, while younger individuals often face issues like diabetes and nervous system disorders.
But there are also alternative treatments that can help manage these conditions, such as medical cannabis, which has shown beneficial effects for certain conditions. I found these Alternaleaf reviews, a medical cannabis clinic in the UK, that mention how people are feeling better managing the symptoms after taking CBD.

True, if it doesn't send you into a psychotic disorder for weeks which is also common.

Every person that died during the covid-19 plandemic was denied all early viral infection treatment. It's not hard to kill elder people by denying medical treatment/medications.

I've heard that from a couple of nurses. Doctors refuse to prescribe antibiotics "because it's a virus". The patients don't actually die from covid, but rather things like bacterial pneumonia - which could of easily been cured with antibiotics, which were deliberately withheld. The death gets labelled as a covid death. Its almost as though there was a plot to make sure as many people as possible died during the pandemic... If you look into cash transfers to hospitals based on covid patients and covid deaths, you might find some strange relationships.

It happened to thousands of Canadians.
The same traitors who conspired together are now asking that you vote for them again.
Never forget what they did..
