Bob Sansevere (00:00):
We are joined by Christopher Faddis, co-founder and president of the Nonprofit Healthcare Sharing Ministry Solidarity HealthShare, which is an ethical, affordable alternative to traditional health insurance and is faithful to the moral teachings of the Catholic Church. Chris, I mentioned this briefly off the air, but we have three people or friends that we know that within a space of a few weeks all were diagnosed with breast cancer. And all three had to take the COVID shot because they were told one worked in the schools and another of the other two worked in healthcare and that was not an option to say no. And they’re wondering, because I’m wondering too, and if you’ve heard anything in Solidarity’s heard anything of a relationship or a correlation between multiple COVID shots and cancer, in this case, breast cancer. Or is that just something that people draw that conclusion but there’s nothing to it?
(00:52):
Has there been any data you’ve seen?
Chris Faddis (00:54):
Yeah, there’s definitely data out there to suggest several things. And it’s not just a COVID shot, but it’s my understanding, and even Dr. Oertle has said this, that it’s not just the COVID shot, but also COVID itself
Bob Sansevere (01:07):
Oh okay.
Chris Faddis (01:08):
Definitely affected people in a way that is, I mean in many ways seems to be linked to an increase in cancers across the board I think, but I think especially what we’re seeing is a lot more young people with cancer, a lot more fast moving cancers. And then there’s been several, I mean breast cancer is not one of them, but several of these kind of unknown strange cancers that people haven’t seen before. So there’s a lot of things that are affected. I think the shot for sure. I think there is some good data out there to show that. But I also think as I’ve been told that it could be just also just COVID, just the COVID-19 virus itself. (It makes you susceptible.) And you think about the spike proteins and how it affects your body and all these things. And most of us haven’t cleared all that stuff, whether it’s the effects of the vaccine or the COVID itself, a lot of people kind of that state in their body.
(02:03):
So it’s a sad thing to see. There’s so many more cancers happening.
Bob Sansevere (02:09):
Yeah-
Chris Faddis (02:10):
And I think an alarming rate, I’m surprised we don’t hear more about it, Bob, because there’s definitely a lot of correlation there.
Bob Sansevere (02:16):
Well, I’m online a lot for the show, but I see a lot of things and I see a lot on Facebook. This is a cure for cancer. This is working, looking good. I mean, a lot of these, there’s nothing to them or is there? I mean, have you heard of any of these studies that some of them are actually working? Because there’s a lot, several of them I’ve seen that where there’s something in your body if you get it in your body, it attacks the cancer cells that we have these cells that can do that, but they have to be activated somehow.
Chris Faddis (02:48):
Right, right. Yeah.
Bob Sansevere (02:50):
And ivermectin with another drug does it. I mean, it’s just a lot, but you don’t know what to believe. And I mean, I have refrained from telling people that I know that have cancer because I don’t want to give them something that there’s nothing too and most of them want to listen to exactly what their doctor says. And that’s what they should do.
Chris Faddis (03:08):
Yeah. And you definitely want to have a doctor guide you on that. But there’s definitely some promising things out there with ivermectin, femesivol, several other things that people are trying. I think to your point though, you want to work with a doctor who understands how that works and how it will affect your cancer. And also you have to be careful because you don’t know if you’re on some chemo drug and then you go try to add ivermectin to it, you don’t know what the –
Bob Sansevere (03:33):
Correct
Chris Faddis (03:34):
Patients are and their interactions. So you want to be very careful about just doing it. There are plenty of doctors out there who are specialists in that. You want to look for an integrative doctor, someone like Dr. John Oertle, somebody who’s got experience in combining the therapy that does everything. I think we have to be careful about this one size thing where it’s like, “Well, I’m not even going to go to the doctor. I’m just going to take this one medication and hope it works.” I mean, you definitely want to work with somebody who knows
(04:05):
What’s best. And because a good doctor, like Dr. Oertle is going to tell you when, “Hey, we probably should throw some chemo here because this thing’s pretty fast or whatever’s going on. ” But I’ve seen some people have some really great success with some of these integrative therapies, including ivermectin and cancer. And so definitely look for those options. I think it’s pretty amazing. I personally still take ivermectin as kind of a prophylactic, just kind of preventative measure on a regular basis when I’m traveling a lot. And I’ve actually wondered sometimes, I’m like, “Can I just take the dose?” I don’t do it, but I’m hopeful that it’s helping to clear things out and-
Bob Sansevere (04:39):
Well, and I know people that take-
Chris Faddis (04:40):
That’s the hard part, Bob. We have all this stuff we’re harboring, and that’s where a lot of the cancers come from. So we need to keep things moving through our-
Bob Sansevere (04:47):
Yes
Chris Faddis (04:47):
System appropriately.
Bob Sansevere (04:48):
Well, and I know people that just take it as a matter of course, ivermectin and have been for long before Trump said anything.
Chris Faddis (04:54):
Right, right. Yeah.
Bob Sansevere (04:56):
Yeah.
Chris Faddis (04:56):
Well, and even as you know, a lot of people were taking it for different immunotherapy, autoimmune diseases like rheumatoid arthritis and things as well, which was one of the problems during COVID when they stopped allowing you to get it. So many people who needed it not for COVID couldn’t even get ivermectin. And still today, you can’t get it at a lot of normal pharmacies.
Bob Sansevere (05:17):
No, we have horses, so we’ve known about ivermectin for horses. And what it does do is kill parasites. I mean, we probably have more parasites in our body than we realize or potentially do. Now I heard- Well,
Chris Faddis (05:33):
That’s what, for me, when I talked to my doctor about it, I said, I was using it when I was traveling during COVID. It makes sense. So every fall, every spring when I have my big pockets of travel, I take it, I don’t even remember the dose. It’s like once a week kind of thing. And in my book, it’s like, well, I’m not getting sick so that’s a good sign. Hopefully it’s working. But also, if it’s going to help clear up the parasites, I mean, I know
Bob Sansevere (05:54):
Yes!
Chris Faddis (05:54):
I know the way I eat.
Bob Sansevere (05:56):
Okay. Let me tell you something. To everyone out there who’s making the trip to Mexico, take ivermectin.
Chris Faddis (06:01):
Absolutely.
Bob Sansevere (06:02):
I mean, I know this was a family friend that goes back decades. My father worked with him. It wasn’t Mexico, but they went to some island. He came back and he had a parasite that killed him. It was so bad. I mean, there’s definitely issues like that. Now I heard something yesterday talking to someone I’ve known for a long … I haven’t spoken to her in a while. She had over a year ago stage four pancreatic cancer, which often is not a good … I mean, it’s not a good thing to have, but
(06:31):
They said it was the type of cancer that she had, they could not do chemo. They did surgery and she also had spread to a part of her liver and she said that they got basically removed her pancreas, which I didn’t know that that could be done, but they did and they also burned part of her liver and it’s growing back and she’s been getting good … Her visits to the doctor, things are encouraging and they were able to eradicate it, which I didn’t … I mean, pancreatic cancer is a bad one because often by the time you catch it, it is spread to every organ. But she was fortunate that it only had gone to part of her liver and that was it. But that to me is somewhat encouraging. I mean, I guess I’m mentioning it because if people have or know of people that have pancreatic cancer, talk to your doctor about what are your options other than chemo, unless it’s spread everywhere, then it’s tough.
Chris Faddis (07:24):
Yeah. And look for a doctor who has other options. It’s one of them. Yeah. I mean, I think that’s the reality. Pancreatic cancer is a very fast moving and often fatal. But I think to your point, there’s several ways now to treat it. And I think that more and more people are actually surviving it. And I think it’s really good, really promising,
Bob Sansevere (07:42):
Well I-
Chris Faddis (07:43):
Both from a traditional sense and a non-traditional sense. We have a cousin in our family that I think he was stage two or three, but yeah, he completely survived that and he went the traditional route. And we’ve also seen people go the somewhat integrative or less conventional route and have good success. So definitely pancreatic cancer doesn’t have to be a death sentence anymore, which is great.
Bob Sansevere (08:06):
Which is great to hear. Now, the one thing I wanted to ask you about before we wrap up, should we be concerned about this rare Ebola that has surfaced? It’s a rare type of Ebola surface than the Congo. If it ever got out, I mean, your chances of surviving this are not good because this is … I mean, we heard about COVID, COVID killed people. This thing is horrible. People that have gotten Ebola, I think your chances are much, much less than 50% that you’re going to survive it.
Chris Faddis (08:34):
Yeah. I think the way I read this and the way I see the scenario is A, it’s still very far from us and very isolated to one main country. It is certainly spreadable and I think there’s a concern. I saw today that the US is moving six high profile people from the US government out of Congo currently and there’s things happening to kind of … I think they’re actually at the travel advisory as well for that region. And so we’ve got to make sure we’re careful and follow the guidance of the government on this kind of thing. The reality is though, it is only spread through fluids, bodily fluid, vomit, that kind of thing. So I think unlike COVID, the likelihood of spread is a lot less. I mean, you and I aren’t going to be around anyone’s bodily fluids anytime soon if we know a nurse, maybe.
(09:33):
I think that’s where as long as the government does a good job of avoiding the travel, keeping the travel restrictions and people not coming here, us not going there, that kind of thing. I think we’re probably pretty safe, but it’s worth monitoring, keeping an eye on. I don’t think it’s something to worry about. (Good.) It’s not even here yet. So it’s not to worry, but certainly something to keep an eye on.
Bob Sansevere (09:53):
All right. I appreciate that. I also want people to know Solidarity Healthshare, SolidarityHealthShare.org, great alternative to traditional healthcare. My family and I have been members for a number of years and it’s worked great and thank you for that. And it gets better every day you’re doing new things it seems like. So Chris, thank you, Chris Faddis, president and co-founder. We’ll take a quick break. The BS Show will be right back.
