PLAGUE #2 — Daniel Whyte III, President of Gospel Light Society International, says he warned everyone ahead of time that the PLAGUES would not stop coming until the Evangelical Church stops sinning and supporting and promoting the abomination of Sodomy/Homosexuality in the Church and colluding with the government to sanction this abomination, not only in our Constitution but in the Constitution of the souls of young people through WOKEISM. Now, here we go!

MASSACHUSETTS says it’s being hit by wave of ‘white lung’ pneumonia in children as Ohio county issues similar warning after China and Europe saw surge in cases and hospitalizations. God is saying you want to rip out the hearts, minds, souls, and spirits of My precious children and their parents and cut off the breasts of girls and cut off the penises of boys and try to turn girls into boys and boys into girls causing great confusion? That’s all right; I’ll just take them home with Me if you keep messing with Me. 

People who are born-again-saved need to do as the Bible tells them: humble yourselves, pray, seek God’s face, turn from your wicked ways, and get back to your first love, the Lord Jesus Christ, and pray for and witness to lost sinners who do not have a clue.

Doctors in parts of Massachusetts and Ohio are reporting a spike in child pneumonia cases similar to the outbreak spreading in China and parts of Europe.

In Warren County, just 30 miles outside Cincinnati, there have been 142 pediatric cases of the condition — dubbed ‘white lung syndrome’ — since August, a figure health officials there described as ‘extremely high’.

‘Not only is this above the county average, it also meets the Ohio Department of Health definition of an outbreak,’ the county’s health department said Wednesday.

Meanwhile, in western Massachusetts, physicians are seeing ‘a whole lot’ of walking pneumonia, a milder form of the lung condition, which is being caused by a mixture of bacterial and viral infections.

Neither outbreak is being caused by a novel pathogen and not all of the pneumonia cases are being caused by the same infection. Experts say a mixture of several seasonal bacterial and viral bugs are hitting at once, putting pressure on hospitals.

It has raised fears that the outbreak that has overwhelmed hospitals China could hit the US this winter. Several European countries are battling similar crises.

But a source at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) told DailyMail.com that, nationally, ‘nothing is out of the ordinary’ in the data.

Dr Amesh Adalja, an infectious disease expert from Johns Hopkins University in Maryland, told DailyMail.com: ‘I would caution against extrapolating one Ohio county to a country of 330million people.’

But he would not be entirely surprised if ‘some places in the US are above baseline’ this year, as it appears several bacterial and viral infections are rebounding post-Covid.

An ‘ongoing investigation’ is underway in Ohio into what is triggering the wave of illness.

Patients in the county – which is home to around 200,000 people – have tested positive for mycoplasma pneumoniae, a bacterial lung infection for which some antibiotics are useless, adenovirus, a normally benign respiratory infections, and strep.

The average age of patients is eight, though some are as young as three.

There are several theories, one of which is that children’s immunity has been weakened by lockdowns, mask-wearing and school closures during the pandemic — leaving them more vulnerable to seasonal illnesses.

Bacterial respiratory infections usually flare up every five years, normally as people are recovering from a wave of flu or other viral illnesses.

Most infections are mild, but those who have recently recovered from a respiratory infection are at higher risk.

In a release from the Warren County Health District, officials said: ‘We do not think this is a novel/new respiratory disease, but rather a large uptick in the number of pneumonia cases normally seen at one time.’

together with family and friends, please remember to take necessary precautions to protect your health.

‘Wash your hands, cover your cough, stay home when ill and stay up to date on vaccines.’

Doctors say patients are mostly suffering from a fever, cough and fatigue.

It is unclear if any deaths have resulted from the illness and officials have not responded to requests for more information.

In Massachusetts, doctors say the main issue is RSV, a respiratory virus that kills more than 10,000 Americans each year, mostly young children and the elderly.

Dr John Kelley, from Redwood Pediatrics in East Longmeadow, told Western Mass News: ‘This is the season for RSV and we’re seeing a whole lot of it… a lot of kids with upper viral respiratory infections, cough, runny nose, some fevers and the thinking with RSV is that it can cause lower viral respiratory infections, so they get spread to your lungs.’

He said 80 percent of the kids with walking pneumonia develop the infection as a result of first having RSV, while the remaining 20 percent of the cases are usually attributed to bacterial infections like mycoplasma pneumoniae.

 

Dr Adalja believes the pneumonia outbreaks cropping up around the world could be due to the ‘cyclical’ nature of mycoplasma.

Strep also normally causes a mild illness and tends to leave patients with sore throats. It’s more common among those aged five to 15 years old.

And adenovirus, which has also been detected in patients in Ohio, causes symptoms similar to the common cold.

It was thought to be one of the viruses driving a spike in childhood hepatitis cases last year in children in the US.
