The group, which includes notable figures like Drs. Ryan Cole, Richard Ursell, Robert Malone, and Pierre Kory, has issued several declarations to challenge the mainstream narrative. Dr. Lindley emphasized that both the Global COVID Summit and her new global health project aim to promote evidence-based medicine and individual freedom in healthcare decisions.
Forming the Global Health Project to understand and heal from the healthcare system's issues during COVID-19: A coalition of professionals formed the Global Health Project, sharing experiences and insights on the broken healthcare system during COVID-19, emphasizing understanding and healing over forgiveness.
During the COVID-19 pandemic, a group of people from around the world came together to challenge the global medical narrative that they felt was totalitarian. They formed the Global Covid Summit and documented early interviews with experts like Peter McCullough and Robert Malone, which have proven to be prescient. Now, a new venture called the Global Health Project has emerged, which is a coalition of doctors, scientists, and other professionals sharing their experiences and realizing the healthcare system is broken. This project is not about asking for forgiveness but about understanding what happened and moving forward. The Global Health Project's website features videos of health professionals sharing their personal journeys and insights. It's important to remember that not everyone reached the same understanding at the same time, and giving grace to those who were once convinced by the official narrative is crucial for healing and progress.
Restoring Trust in the Medical Community: Encouraging open dialogue between patients and doctors, fostering transparency, and upholding ethical obligations are essential to restoring trust in the medical community and prioritizing patient safety.
Doctors and the public have lost trust in the medical community due to perceived misinformation and questionable practices. This issue is compared to religious belief, where people blindly follow teachings without questioning. The Global Health Project aims to bring these concerns to light, encouraging open dialogue between patients and doctors. Many people appreciate the courage of doctors who speak up, viewing them as trusted figures. However, some doctors may be silenced due to fear of losing their jobs or licenses. This censorship hinders patient safety and the ability to learn from mistakes. It's crucial for doctors to remember their ethical obligations, including "first, do no harm." By fostering a culture of transparency and open communication, we can restore trust in the medical community and prioritize the well-being of patients.
Apologizing to Patients: Building Trust and Improving Care: Acknowledging mistakes and apologizing to patients builds trust, improving patient care. Stay informed and vigilant to ongoing health threats. Treat patients with compassion and respect, regardless of reactions.
Acknowledging mistakes and apologizing to patients is crucial for building trust and improving patient care. The speaker shares her personal experience of taking criticism and apologizing to patients when necessary, emphasizing the importance of transparency and accountability. She also expresses her belief that the COVID-19 response was a practice and that there are ongoing threats to global health, urging the importance of staying informed and vigilant. The speaker also reflects on the idea that people are divided like Marmite, and that it's impossible to please everyone, encouraging healthcare professionals to treat patients with compassion and respect, regardless of their reactions.
Maintaining Positive Relationships: Kindness and Honesty Matter: Be kind and honest, especially when delivering difficult news. Focus on solutions, not dwelling on negativity, to build stronger, more resilient communities.
Treating people with kindness and honesty, even when delivering difficult news, is essential for maintaining positive relationships. This approach is especially important when dealing with vulnerable individuals, such as children or those facing health crises. However, it's important to remember that not everyone will be receptive, and it's essential to focus on the solutions rather than dwelling on the negative. In the context of the current global situation, this means acknowledging the challenges we face, such as potential health emergencies, and working together to find viable solutions. By focusing on the solutions and maintaining a positive, solution-oriented mindset, we can help mitigate negativity and build stronger, more resilient communities.
Health Crisis: Prioritizing Family and Trusted Doctors: During health crises, prioritize family, trust your doctor, practice self-care, and strengthen community bonds.
The next global emergency is likely to be a health crisis, possibly involving a virus like Marburg or Ebola. This concern stems from personal experiences and the belief that family health is paramount. The speaker emphasizes the importance of having a trusted doctor and open communication between doctors and families about treatment plans. Additionally, self-care and family bonding are crucial during uncertain times. The speaker also expresses concern about efforts to undermine the family unit and traditional values, and encourages prioritizing community, love, and faith.
COVID-19 response raised concerns from healthcare, mental health, and societal perspectives: The COVID-19 response brought up complex issues related to healthcare, mental health, and societal norms, emphasizing the importance of critical thinking and support during uncertain times.
The COVID-19 response raised valid concerns from a healthcare perspective, as doctors and medical professionals questioned the logic of hospital overcrowding through stay-at-home orders. Furthermore, individuals' mental and emotional resilience played a significant role in their susceptibility to fear-driven narratives. Additionally, there are concerns about the medicalization and potential social engineering of issues like gender identity. These complex issues, when combined with the lockdowns, created a perfect storm of uncertainty and confusion. It's crucial to approach such situations with critical thinking, ask questions, and support each other as families and communities.
Unprecedented stress for young children during pandemic: Parents must stay engaged and communicate with schools to ensure children's wellbeing amidst pandemic-induced stress and potential indoctrination in education system
The pandemic brought unprecedented stress and uncertainty for families, particularly for young children who were trying to adapt to remote learning. The constant background noise of parents struggling with work and the news of global crises added to their stress, leading to a surge in mental health issues and even suicidal attempts. In some school systems in the US, there were reports of teachers and counselors encouraging children to keep their thoughts hidden from their parents, fueling concerns of indoctrination. The speaker believes that this education system, which has been influenced by ideologies for decades, is indoctrinating children in some areas, and the lack of communication between parents and schools exacerbates the issue. It's important for parents to stay engaged in their children's education and maintain open lines of communication to ensure their wellbeing.
Exploring faith and community for personal growth: Discovering a strong sense of faith and community is vital for personal growth and well-being. It's the people in our faith who matter most, not the specific religion itself. Believing in something greater, whether it's God, family, or humanity, helps us strive for better things in life.
Finding a strong sense of faith and community is essential for personal growth and well-being. The speaker shares their personal journey of exploring different religious beliefs and discovering that the people they surround themselves with in their faith community is more important than the specific religion itself. They emphasize the importance of having something to believe in, whether it's God, family, or humanity, to help us strive for better things in life. The speaker also mentions a powerful prayer in Croatian that brings them comfort and peace when they feel stressed or overwhelmed. They encourage the importance of strong families, communities, and faith, while also warning against the influence of those who spread divisive and harmful ideas. Overall, the conversation highlights the importance of finding meaning and connection in our lives through faith, community, and personal beliefs.
Build strong relationships and communities for health and resistance: Focus on family, expand friend circle, get involved in local politics, prioritize physical, mental, and spiritual health, protect loved ones, resist adversity together
In order to stay healthy, free, and resist against adversity, individuals should focus on building strong relationships and communities. This includes creating a strong nuclear family, expanding your circle of friends, and getting involved in local politics. Additionally, taking care of your physical, mental, and spiritual health is crucial. It's important to remember that no matter where you come from, every parent wants the best for their children. So, fight for something worth fighting for and protect your loved ones. Despite the challenges in the world, the last few years have shown that when we come together and resist, we can make a difference.
Protecting Children's Identities and Values: Let children explore the world freely, protect their identities, and preserve family, freedom, and faith.
It's crucial for parents to protect their children from external influences that may confuse their identities and hinder their natural exploration of the world. The speaker shares a personal experience of letting her son play dress-up as a girl when he was young, but emphasizes that this doesn't mean he wanted to be a girl. She warns against imposing ideas on children and encourages letting them be kids. The speaker also mentions the importance of preserving freedom, family, and faith as the most sacred things in life, and warns against the potential dangers of totalitarianism and the attack on these values. She believes that the current push for gender fluidity may be a result of a void in people's lives and a desire for control by external forces. Overall, the message is to let children be children, explore the world, and protect their identities and values.
Feeling lost and disconnected during the pandemic: Amidst the pandemic, prioritize accurate information and emotional support for vulnerable individuals, especially children, to navigate complex vaccine debates and safeguard their well-being.
The COVID-19 pandemic has left many people feeling lost and disconnected, with missing elements of faith, community, and identity. The lack of face-to-face interactions and the emphasis on social media and online activities have contributed to a significant void in people's lives. Furthermore, the debate surrounding vaccines, particularly for children, adds to the confusion and uncertainty. While some argue for the importance of protecting children through vaccination, others question the long-term effects and potential risks. The lack of long-term data and reported cases of harm, including fertility issues, have raised concerns. Ultimately, it's crucial to prioritize safeguarding vulnerable individuals, including young adults and children, by providing them with accurate information and supporting their emotional and physical well-being. Trusted healthcare professionals and personal connections can play a vital role in helping individuals navigate these complex issues.
