Kamikaze Covid or Smart Covid?

The government of Norway abruptly announced that they would be lifting all social distancing rules, capacity limits on businesses and other pandemic restrictions. This approach was taken after their cases had dropped by 50% in the last two weeks.

They’ve requested the public to get vaccinated, stating that the pandemic was still not over and that “people will still get sick.” 

 

With 67% of their population fully vaccinated, Norway is seeing their largest spike in cases this month. Yet the reasoning to this sudden decision is quite alarming as it isn’t due to high vaccination rates or the number of cases decreasing but solely due to the fatigue in the public with the constant lifting and placing of restrictions the Prime Minister states that there is a lack of normalcy. This ultimately means that the public would have to take personal responsibility from hereon for their safety and wellbeing. 

Are other countries following Norway’s decision?

 

Singapore has also declared that they will be ‘living with Covid’ although they are currently experiencing their largest wave, with reports showing that waves ideally three times larger than the current being expected if they were to lift their restrictions. 

 

82% of Singapore’s population has been fully vaccinated excluding those who had obtained the vaccine produced by China, meaning that a greater number has been vaccinated yet they are still experiencing the highest hospitalization and death rates so far.

 

It is believed that the virus will continue to circulate, and that there must be a mentality shift within the community, where they are expecting Covid to not be treated as a ‘deadly disease’ but as a mild contraction similar to a flu. This idea is further spread by advising the public to not rush into hospitals as soon as they have contracted the virus but to stay at home.

Is ‘living with Covid’ the new norm?

 

Other countries such as the UK have also lifted their restrictions but may opt to reverse these decisions if cases and hospitalization were to rise.

Denmark, Portugal and Ireland have also decided to lift all their restrictions reasoning that they have had a higher vaccination rate leading them to reach the decision of ‘living with Covid.’

 

Thailand has also joined these countries despite their low vaccination rates.

It is clearly seen that there tends to be an increase in the number of countries taking this approach which leads us to question, what must we be doing?

 

As Singapore states, it is impossible to eradicate virus, therefore they’ve taken the approach of “focusing on hospitalization and death rates” where they urge the public to stay home, isolate and take care. With this in place, the public is expected to take care of themselves. How can this be done? Taking the necessary precautions of sanitizing and social distancing can only go so far, if the restrictions are lifted, we must also prepare for the possibility of contracting the virus. Where then it would be a battle for our built immunity. 

 

Resorting to other methods of boosting our immunity?

 

Although the vaccines don’t prevent you from contracting Covid, getting vaccinated has been a crucial part of building one’s immunity. We must also take a look at countries like Israel that have given out their fourth booster shot to the public, yet the cases are still on the rise. Which proves that there seems to be drastic change with containing the spread by vaccination. 

It is evident now that the vaccine is moreover a precaution taken to reduce the adverse effects that Covid might cause. Therefore, the only method of ‘living with Covid’ would be to boost your immunity. Along with the vaccines providing this immunity there are other methods to do this. 

Secrets of Tea introduces a unique blend of fine herbs that have been directed to increase immunity.

 

How can Immunity tea help? 

 

Secrets of Tea’s Immunity tea has been incorporated with scientifically proven ingredients to boost metabolism and strengthen immunity.

 

This tea contains;

•         Organic Echinacea
•         Organic High-Grade Green Tea 
•         Organic Zingiber officinale 
•         Organic Coconut Chips, Organic Erythrina 
•         Organic Nymphaeaceae
•         Organic Moringa Oleifera 
•         Organic Glycyrrhiza Glabra 
•         Organic Curcuma Longa
•         Organic Hibiscus

 

With the incorporation of natural ingredients, this tea has also been certified as USDA Organic, Vegan, halal and kosher and does not include GMOs, Gluten, Sugar, Caffeine, Wheat, Dairy or Soy. 

 

 

Who can benefit from this tea?

 

As it is evident that the risk groups have been identified and have been consistent with the variant versions on the virus, the elderly, people with hypertension, diabetes and people with a BMI over 35 have a higher tendency to be hospitalized. People in these categories may seek more methods of boosting their immunity along with the vaccine. Hence, this immunity tea would be highly beneficial for them. Although, this tea is very inclusive and is ideal for anyone seeking to strengthen their immunity.

Alternative for the unvaccinated? 

 

Another question arising is what happens to the unvaccinated? Most children have not been administered the vaccine, although there haven’t been various cases of Covid causing major complications for the young, there has been a percentage which has been affected. Is it worth the risk? If we’re to divert to taking care of ourselves we must focus on increasing everyone’s immunity. 

It has also been seen that the percentage of the population who refuse to take the vaccine are often dehumanized but not getting vaccinated may ideally put them at a higher risk than prevent the spread.

Therefore, Immunity tea would seem like a better option to boost their immunity as it consists of all-natural ingredients with no chemicals or potential side effects.

 

Will it help you recover from Covid?

 

Secrets of Tea also provides a cold relief tea called Cold Be Gone, which may not be the cure for Covid but would essentially be a soothing, herbal blend which helps boost natural immunity and alleviates cold symptoms. Adding this to your list of preparations taken to fight off Covid at home would be an added benefit. This blend consists of;

 

•         Organic Rooibos CC
•         Organic Peppermint CC
•         Organic Lemon Balm CC
•         Organic Black berry leaves
•         Organic Licorice CC

 

Which would provide a soothing aroma and a healthy drink. Secrets of Tea provides 20 biodegradable sachets where each sachet can be used twice allowing 40 servings.

 

           

 

 

If ‘living with Covid’ is to be the new norm, each of us would be at an individual risk where taking the necessary precautions would be up to us. Boosting our immunity seems to be the only proved method of surviving Covid. This tea may therefore be just what you’re looking for as it has been recommended by professional herbalists and doctors as well. Since it appears to look like the governments have given up should we take matters into our own hands?
