Pathophysiology

Ebola and sepsis

Ebola and influenza

Homeopathy and epidemicsSlide3

Ebola pathophysiology

Attack on dendritic cells (responsible for presentation of antigen to T-lymphocytes)

Damage to organ tissues (

liver,spleen

, lymphoid tissues)

Lymphocyte apoptosis (death)

DIC (Disseminated Intravascular Coagulation)Slide4

Ebola pathophysiology: DIC

Endothelium

Macrophages

Monocytes

Activated by cytokines

Ischemia

HemorrhageSlide5

Symptoms of ebola: initial

Starts a few days after exposure

High fever

Prostration

Headache, vomiting, diarrhea

Variety of non-specific signs and symptoms

RashSlide6

Symptoms of ebola: later

Coagulopathy (DIC)

Shock: increase in vascular

permiability

, loss of vascular smooth-muscle tone, hypotension, multiple organ dysfunction

DeathSlide7

Ebola and septic shock

Septic shock: result of septicemia in severe bacterial infections

DIC is the main feature in both conditions

ShockSlide8

Ebola and severe influenza

Initial

sx

: similar

Flu: pneumonia and activation of inflammatory substances (cytokines) leading to lung and other organ damage and DIC in severe cases, followed by shock (similar to

ebola

and other severe infections)Slide9

Typhus Fever epidemic of 1813

When the epidemic came through Leipzig, Samuel Hahnemann,the founder of Homeopathy, was able to treat 180 cases of Typhus, losing only 2.

The mortality rate for conventional medicine was 30%.Slide12

Cholera

Dr. Joseph Pulte, working in Cincinnati during the cholera epidemic of 1849, boasted that he did not lose a single patient.

People crowded to his door and stood in the street because his waiting room was full.Slide14

The 1830 - 1832 Cholera Epidemic

Samuel Hahnemann,the founder of Homeopathy, was able to identify the stages of the illness and predict what homeopathic remedies would be needed for which stages.

When Cholera finally struck Europe the mortality rate under conventional treatment was between 40% - 80% depending on the information sources.Slide15

The 1830 - 1832 Cholera Epidemic

Dr.Quin of London reported the mortality in the 10 homeopathic hospitals in 1831 – 1832 as 9%.

Dr.Roth,homeopathic physician to the King of Bavaria, reported that the mortality was 7%.

Admiral Mordoinow of The Imperial Russian Council reported 10% mortality under homeopathy.Slide16

The 1854 London

Cholera Epidemic

Under conventional care the mortality rate was 59.2% while under homeopathic care the mortality was only 9%.Slide17

The Hamburg Cholera epidemic of 1892

The conventional mortality rate was 42%.The homeopathic mortality rate was 15.5%.Slide18

Yellow Fever

During the 1850’s there were several epidemics of Yellow Fever in the southern states. This disease was eventually found to be transmitted by mosquito.

Dr.Osler reported that the conventional mortality rate was between 15 – 85%.

In Natchez Dr.Holcombe,a homeopath, reported a mortality rate of 6.43% and Dr.Davis,another homeopath, reported a mortality rate of 5.73%.

In 1878 the mortality rate in New Orleans was 50% under conventional care, and 5.6% (In 1,945 cases in the same epidemic) with homeopathic care.Slide19

Diphtheria

In the 1862 - 1864 records of Diphtheria in Broome County, New York the mortality rate for conventional care was 83.6% and the mortality rate for homeopathic care was 16.4%.Slide20

INFLUENZA

Every 10 to 30 years, the flu virus historically undergoes radical changes …..

in which it is altered so completely that most of the world’s population has no immunity to it.

During the Asian Flu of 1957 one million people worldwide died.

During the Hong Kong Flu of 1968 750.000 people died worldwide.

Sometimes a viral strain develops that is so deadly that it is known as a super virus. The Spanish Flu of 1918 – 1919 killed from 22 to 100 million people worldwide. It often struck young otherwise healthy people in less that 48 hours.

The Spanish Flu began as an ordinary flu with fever and aches and pains but it developed very rapidly often within a matter of hours into a much more serious and deadly lung infection.Slide21

The 1918 – 1919 Influenza pandemic

The Journal of the American Institute of Homeopathy, May 1921.Slide22

The 1918 – 1919 Influenza pandemic

“Homeopathic doctors rose to the challenge of the most appalling Influenza pandemic in history, and they did so without the

fear

and

uncertainty

that paralyzed their allopathic colleagues.”

Dr.Frank Wieland of Chicago wrote;

“In a plant of 8,000 workers there was only one death.

Gelsemium

was practically the only homeopathic remedy used, there was no use of either aspirin or vaccination.”Slide23

Dean W.A .Pearson of Philadelphia collected 26,795 cases of Influenza treated by homeopathic physicians. The mortality rate was 1.05% while the rate for conventional medicine was 30%.

Dr.H.A.Roberts of Connecticut had 30 physicians respond to his request for data. They reported 6.602 cases with 55 deaths, which is less than a 1% mortality rate.Slide24

Dr.G.B. Stearns of New York collected through the International Hahnemannian Association 17,000 cases of Influenza with a mortality rate of 4%.

Dr.T.A.Mc Cann of Ohio reported a 1,000 cases of Influenza with no loses.

Dr.A.B. Palmer of Seattle treated approx 500 cases which included pneumonia, he only lost two cases.

Dr.F.A.Swartwout of Washington had 11 homeopathic physicians report 3,600 cases of Influenza with only 6 deaths.

Dr.G.G.Bascomb of Lake Wilson, Minnesota reported 300 cases with no deaths.Slide25

Dr,Arthur Grimmer declared:

“The development of pneumonia is a rare occurrence if a good homeopathic physician was called during the first 24 hours of attack.”

Dr.G.A.Wright of Forest Glen wrote:

“I attended over one hundred cases without fatalities. I never deviated from the homeopathic remedy. I never gave aspirin.

This epidemic should encourage us to renewed faith in homeopathy.”Slide26
