Good old Batman in the Isometrics Vim and VIgor group shared some qustionable videos. about boosting the immune system to prevent Covid-19. I called them out. They are still on the FB page, but the videos are strangely gone from Youtube. Don't know if he wised up or Youtube chopped them. I will not stand for people trying to profit from the fear of others and though these videos weren't a direct profit to him, they were essentially a way to publicize what he does and his business. Ahh, looks like he was selling therapy sessions.
The videos from Batman are gone now but the placeholder is still there
And his own FB page no longer has any info about it. That's strange. You'd think someone with a helpful bit of info like that would be pushing it. Hmmm.
Alas, good old search engine cache reveals the web page that has gone missing.

COVID-19 Immunity Booster Sessions are now available. Right now, according to the CDC "There is no specific treatment for COVID-19 (Coronavirus)" (1). The best they can do is ease your symptoms and hope your body can fight the infection and survive. By contrast there are TCM treatments that are natural, effective (92% +) and you can start them immediately.
I'm Paul J.O'Brien, a consultant of Chinese Medicine (which has successfully treated 320 large-scale epidemics over 2,000 year, including this one), and I'm certified in western clinical medicine. Among my specialities is the treatment of Epidemic disease. I am the author of, "Surviving Swine Flu" and "The Covid-19 Solution", a detailed 130-page clinical guide on the treatment COVID-19 of and I am here to help you in this current crisis.
It goes without saying it is VERY important for us to minimise the risks of contracting this disease. This involves making sure that you follow all HSE recommended guidelines - here:
Wash your hands.
Cover your coughs/sneezes with a tissue or your elbow.
Avoid touching your eyes, nose, and mouth.
Practice social distancing.
And please, take this seriously.
Covid-19 is 20 times Deadlier than the Flu.
The COVID-19 virus is far more contagious than the Flu. The estimated infection rate based on the numbers directly generated by one case in a population where all individuals are susceptible to infection is between 1.4 – 6.49 (2) with an average estimate of 3.28. The seasonal flu has an average infection rate of 1.28 (3).
It’s Not “Like the Flu”
About 15 – 20% of COVID-19 infected people suffer from severe symptoms that require medical attention (4), including pneumonia with shortness of breath and lowered blood oxygen saturation.
20 Times More Lethal
And this needs to be taken seriously, as the case fatality rate (CFR) of COVID-19 is estimated to be at about 2%, meaning that unfortunately, about 2% (5) of people diagnosed with COVID-19 will succumb to it. By contrast, the CFR of seasonal flu is only about 0.1%. Speaking plainly, the new virus SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19) is thought to be about 20 times more deadly than the seasonal flu.
Thankfully, there is a lot I can do and a lot you can do to boost your immune system and reduce the chances of infection in addition to the HSE and WHO guidelines.
Don't be dead wrong
Hoping warm weather will kill the COVID-19 VIRUS won't work. Thinking this is a joke and can be ridden out or ignored won't work. Thinking this is over-hyped - dead wrong.
It is spreading all over the world and it won't stop.
Celebrities such as Tom Hanks and Idris Elba have it
Politicians have it
What chance do the ordinary folks that can't take off work have?
These are the undisputed facts.
Cities are shutting down.
Businesses are closing.
Flights are being cancelled.
Thousands are in quarantine.
Countries are closing their borders.
The Irish closed all the pubs in Ireland on St. Patrick's day. That's how serious this is.
And there is no specific treatment available. Except the proven methods we use in TCM. These are the treatments working right now that have effectively stopped the infection in China. As of yesterday they had ZERO NEW COVID-19 CASES. These are the treatments right now that lead to (6):
130 patients being cured (no evidence of disease or infection) and discharged;
Symptoms of 51 patients completely disappeared
268 patients showed improvement in symptoms, and
212 presented with stable symptoms (those symptoms did not worsen).
46.7% of the patients’ cough symptoms disappeared after 1 day on the herbal treatments.
80.6% of patients’ cough symptoms disappeared after 6 days on the herbal solutions
ZERO of the patients categorised as “light and ordinary” (i.e., mild) were downgraded to severe or critically ill
51.8% of the patients returned to normal temperature after 1 day
94.6% of patients temperatures returned to normal within 6 days.
COVID-19 Immune Boosting Sessions in Clinic - 92% Proven Success Rate
If you are currently free of cough, sneezes and shivers (fever) and the symptoms of a cold or flu, I strongly encourage you to make an appointment for an Immune Boosting Session. I am using the same treatments as used by the:
The Beijing Health Commission - “87% of coronavirus patients in Beijing had been given traditional medicines and 92% of those had shown improvement". In South China's Guangdong province, 1,245 confirmed novel coronavirus patients - as many as 94% of all the patients in the province - had received TCM treatment apart from Western medicine methods and TCM proved effective in 89% of the cases. (7)
The Chinese National Government - “TCM treatment can shorten the average length of patient stay in the hospital by 2.2 days while enhancing the recovery rate by 33% compared with the control group. The transfer rate from medium symptoms to severe symptoms dropped by 27.4% and the number of lymphocytes, an important indicator of the health condition of patients who are recovering, increased by 70%, according to the clinical research”. Administration data released on Monday showed that TCM had been prescribed to 60,107 infected patients, or 85.2%, of the total infections nationwide (8)
Shanxi Provincial TCM Hospital - TCM treatment was provided to over 13,000 patients and medical staff. Over 90% of the confirmed patients in the province have used TCM in the early stages of their treatment. 60% of their patients experienced a reduction in the severity of their symptoms. While the condition of 30 % of confirmed asymptomatic patients has remained stable with no symptoms (9)
How a Clinical COVID-19 Immunity Booster Session Works
As I say these COVID-19 Immunity Booster Sessions treatments work and I am recommending them to all my patients old and new. If you are currently free of cough, sneezes and shivers (fever) and the symptoms of a cold or flu, I strongly encourage you to make an appointment for an Immune Boosting Session.
Each session is 30 minutes long, no chit chat, we are getting straight to work.
You'll come into the clinic, have your hands sterilised and taught to wash them correctly (yes, I have had to teach nearly every patient the correct way to wash their hands).
You'll then lie down on the treatment table and I'll need access to your legs from the knees down and the your arms from the elbow down.
I'll then provide the acupuncture protocols to boost your immune system against COVID-19.
After 15-20 minutes the needles (they are painless) will be removed and you're good to go.
I recommend weekly treatments.
BOOK NOW - As the situation is very fluid and government may take steps to shut down private clinics. In addition, I have volunteered to assist the HSE and may be called away from the clinic and will be unable to continue these sessions. They are limited.
COVID-19 Immune Boosting Sessions are being provided during this crisis at the heavily discounted rate of just €60.
After payment you'll be automatically directed to a patient intake form and my online calendar so you can schedule your appointment for a time and day that suits you.

Bonus:
In light of the extraordinary situation we find ourselves in at the moment I will also be providing each COVID-19 Immunity Booster Session patient with a complete handout of pressure points which I encourage them to follow at home. Along with supplementary recipes they can use to boost your immune system that are easy to make and can be made with ingredients you likely already have at home, or can be easily ordered online from your local supermarket.

WHAT TO DO IF YOU HAVE SYMPTOMS
If you have any symptoms such as:
any type of cough,
difficulty breathing,
fever (high temperature),
fatigue,
headaches,
sore throat,
aches and pains.
You should phone your doctor or emergency department (ED) immediately. Do not visit a doctor or ED. Phone them first. This is so you do not accidentally put other people at risk. If you do not have a doctor, phone 112 or 999.
Tell them about your symptoms. If you have let them know if you have been to a country or region with a spread of COVID-19 (Coronavirus). If your doctor thinks that you need to be tested, they will tell you where the test will be done. They will also tell you when to expect results. Avoid contact with other people by self-isolating and this includes the clinic.
BOOK AN ONLINE COVID-19 IMMUNE BOOSTING SESSION
If you are outside of Dublin, self-isolating or currently showing symptoms of COVID-19 I highly recommend an online session. These virtual appointments can be done via, Zoom, Skype, What'sApp or even Facebook depending on what technology you have access to.
During this session I will:
Take a full case history and determine a TCM diagnosis
Determine according to TCM which stage of illness you may be at.
Guide you through a complete acupressure treatment. I will hold and/or massage the points on my own body with you to show you exactly what to do and how.
I'll teach you important breathing techniques, nutritional advice and meditations if required.
Each online session is 60 minutes long.
COVID-19 60-Min Online Sessions are being provided during this crisis at the heavily discounted rate of just €97.
After payment you'll be automatically directed to a patient intake form and my online calendar so you can schedule your online appointment for a time and day that suits you.
