In this third part we examine the path not taken: a handful of cheap, widely available, home-based therapies—ozone preconditioning, hydroxychloroquine, and light/vitamin treatment—which, had they been implemented early in the pandemic could have reduced morbidity and mortality by 80% or more.

In this three-part series we examine the extent to which disaster capitalism and the medical-industrial complex turned the pandemic into a 'golden' opportunity to enhance corporate profits which took place, in large part, at the taxpayer's expense through appropriation of public resources. In the first part we examine the rise of this predatory social ideology and the strategies its adherents have employed to assure its success. In the second part we examine the social and economic consequences of disaster capitalism during the COVID-19 pandemic which, in the end, led to the preventable loss of hundreds of thousands of American lives. In the final article we point to the necessity of broad reform not only of the healthcare system but of American democracy and raise challenging questions as to how this should be accomplished and, importantly, whether the American public is up to the task.

In this paper we examine HF and CKD through the lens of a new causal paradigm: as a conjoined energy deficiency syndrome whose progression is governed by impaired energy generation by the cardiovascular system leading to subsequent deterioration of blood energy dynamics. Due to the immense complexity of this topic our intention is not to go into unnecessary and laborious detail on specific cellular and molecular aspects of the syndromes but, instead, to use illustrative examples to establish overarching principles and to highlight the connection between the deteriorating energy field and all resultant aberrations. Indeed, once the energy dynamics are recognized cellular and molecular descriptions become superfluous. Our use of the term 'causal' is meant to imply that future breakthroughs in the treatment (and potential reversal) of these complex disease states necessarily entails recognition and correction of underlying energy deficits.

In this paper we examine 20th century conceptual developments regarding dementia and the NDs, from the first recognition of their clinical and pathological characteristics, through recognition of their molecular and cellular attributes and, ultimately, to recognition of their dynamic and vascular origins. We introduce a new energy based causal model of these disabling neurologic conditions that provides vital insights into their origins and necessary treatment. The term 'causal' implies that future treatment of these conditions necessarily entails recognition and correction of underlying energy deficits.

Over the past decade experts repeatedly warned it was but a matter of time before the next pandemic struck. They urged governmental agencies to prepare strategies to diminish its potential impact. When SARS-CoV-2 finally emerged in late January, 2020 the government was paralyzed and unable to take effective action.
