U.K. and Europe Updated COVID Vaccine Adverse Event Data

The United Kingdom and European Union posted updated adverse events statistics in late January showing people in those regions are continuing to report problems at an unusually high rate after taking mRNA vaccines.

U.K. Adverse Events

The data show that as of January 19, the U.K. Yellow Card system reported 1,552,248 adverse events, mostly associated with Pfizer BioNTech’s mRNA vaccines (1,286,984), followed by AstraZeneca (231,168), Moderna (32,936), and unspecified vaccines (1,160).

European Adverse Events

The European Medicines Agency’s latest EudraVigilance update on January 24 reported a total of 1,428,060 adverse event reports, led by cases associated with Pfizer BioNTech (722,454), followed by AstraZeneca (442,029), Moderna (215,196) and Janssen (48,381).

Most EU Adverse Events Involve Ages 18-64

More than three-quarters of adverse events involved subjects between 18-64 years of age. The second leading cohort, about 15 percent, was between 65-85 years of age.

The U.K.’s Yellow Card and EU’s EudraVigilance systems are counterparts to the Vaccine Adverse Events Reporting System run by the United States Centers for Disease Control (CDC) and the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) which tracks adverse events associated with vaccines.

Adverse Event Rates in U.K. Vs. Europe Are Disproportionate

Adverse event registries are deemed to be passive surveillance systems since they rely on reporting by health workers or individuals experiencing suspected adverse events. This passive system has led researchers to conclude they typically undercount real world cases. 

Others have noted that proving adverse events is a difficult prospect since there may be many reasons for a sickness or death around the timeframe that an individual has been vaccinated.

One sign of the difficulty of tracking adverse events is the massive disparities seen across jurisdictions with similar rates of vaccination. For example, the U.K. has 68 million residents and 1,552,248 adverse effect reports, compared to the EU, which has 440 million residents and 1,428,060.

Circular Reasoning: Severely Disabled Man Vaccinated Over Parents Wishes So he Can Participate in Outdoor Activities

A February 4 report from the British Medical Journal has raised disturbing questions about the ethics of the COVID-19 regime in the UK, a Western Democracy. In the case of a young man who lacks the capacity to make health decisions, a court ruled he “must be vaccinated against SARS-CoV-2, despite his parents’ fears that the vaccine could seriously harm or even kill him.” Known legally as “DC,” the 20-year-old man lives in a care home in England at which he is the sole unvaccinated resident. DC has “schizencephaly, microcephaly, cerebral palsy, curvature of the spine, dystonia, intermittent stridor, and pseudomonas of the lungs.” DC weighs as much as a small child and generally needs to be hospitalized several times a year for lung illness. 

Judge Simon Burrows noted that DC’s “highly intelligent” parents, who don’t, in general, oppose vaccines, had a logical and rational basis for their objection to COVID-19 vaccination. The young man’s dad is a professional risk evaluator, and he did a massive amount of research on mRNA vaccines. He is particularly concerned about a history of blood clots in the family. Yet Borrows said that the risks of the vaccination did not outweigh the benefits. And the main “benefit” cited is not even a medical benefit: the court’s main justification for this action was that it would be a positive in DC’s life, as unvaccinated, “he was not allowed to attend outdoor events and had to be isolated in his room for 10 days after home visits.”

TrialSite suggests that such judiciary moves, encroaching on the lives of individual families and their preferences, represent an overreach of the British judiciary.  Political fallout is expected.

Honduras Reduced COVID Deaths With Repurposed Drugs, Early Treatment

Dr. Fernando Valerio, a critical care doctor in Honduras who co-authored a recent peer-reviewed study indicating the potential of repurposed drugs targeting SARS-CoV-2, shared with Trial Site his experience treating patients in the Central American nation.

Valerio described an American and Honduran collaboration that led to two fundamental papers including  “A Multi-mechanism approach reduces length of stay in the ICU for severe COVID-19 patients

Honduras has recorded approximately 391,874 cases of SARS-CoV-2 with 10,504 deaths, according to the U.S. Embassy in Honduras.  

With 66% of the Central American nation in poverty (20% in extreme poverty) and a severely constrained health care infrastructure, “Honduras faced the potential collapse of its health care system from COVID-19.” 

Practicing medicine out of Hospital CEMESA in San Pedro Sula, Honduras, Dr. Valerio shared with TrialSite some of the challenges Honduras, a Central American country of 9.5 million people, faced during this pandemic.

19 critical care physicians and 125 intensive care unit beds had to serve approximately 9.5 million people during the worst pandemic in a century. 

While still on the mend from the Dengue epidemic in 2019, a group of heroic physician/real-world researchers embraced the use of repurposed therapies for both inpatient and outpatient treatment, leading to significant results.  

Historical Challenges

Dr. Valerio’s and colleagues’ battle with COVIID-19 in Honduras represents a bigger war against poverty and uneven economic development—caused by a confluence of legacy and present-day forces—resulting in severe health care challenges in this nation that extends from the Caribbean Sea to the Pacific Ocean via a small piece of land on the Gulf of Fonseca. 

Honduras has experienced little stability since it gained independence from Spain in 1821. Nearly 300 small rebellions and civil wars ransacked this country, some leading to regime changes according to one American-centric historical report.

U.S. agricultural corporations have played a colonial role in Honduras often operating extractive industries around tropical fruit production. The U.S. military has invaded Honduras several times to quell insurgencies and back economic elites in what were known as the “Banana Wars.” 

In the past several decades U.S. military activity stirred again in an ideological fight against leftist guerilla movements, and by 1998, Hurricane Mitch wiped out 50 years of progress according to then Honduran President Carlos Roberto Flores

Honduras is a place of struggle and endurance.

Modern Day Health Woes

Honduras’ troubled past has resulted in stifled economic growth and a troubled health system. A few statistics reveal the state of the nation’s medical institutions: Honduras only has 4,093 public hospital beds and 9.5 hospitals per 100,000 people. Dr. Valerio shared with TrialSite that Honduras has only 125 critical care beds for the entire population as well as only six physicians for every 10,000 inhabitants.

Citing Plato that “necessity is the mother of all invention,”  Valerio and colleagues known as Platforma CATRACHO todos contra el covid (everyone against covid)” provided a stark comparison to New York City, roughly a comparable population to the entire nation of Honduras.

New York CityHondurasPopulation8.4 million9.5 millionCritical Care Specialists1,60018ICU Beds4,000124

The SARS-CoV-2 driven pandemic slammed the nation, with its severe health care infrastructure gaps but a band of critical care physicians, influencing a responsive national government, responded to this crisis embracing repurposed drugs, and proactive early treatment as a means of compensating for inadequate health care capacity.

Real World Innovation

Honduran critical care doctors spurred the national health apparatus into action. With the help of media and journalists who created a campaign known as CATRACHO, the physicians evangelized to key government decision-makers to promote the treatment protocols.

As terrifying images of sickness and death broadcast from New York, Honduran officials faced complete health care collapse given the complete lack of health care infrastructure. And at the time, there were no formally approved COVID-19 treatments.

Critical access, front-line physicians sprang into action, studying what other low-and middle-income countries were embracing including ivermectin, which was already in use in a handful of Latin American nations due to positive lab findings at the University of Monash, Australia.

Enter ‘CATRACHO’

There was no time, money, or infrastructure for clinical trials in Central America. Out of necessity, health care units in Honduras had to implement protocols based on known drugs and a rapidly unfolding knowledge of the SARS-CoV-2 infection lifecycle. 

This wasn’t the United States, where many tens of billions, if not hundreds of billions, were allocated to the development of advanced, sophisticated mRNA-based vaccines, monoclonal antibodies, and other treatments. And yet, Honduras’ eventual final death toll would be lower than in the United States and places like Israel.

Dr. Valerio and the team of critical care doctors hypothesized various protocols to address various stages of SARS-CoV-2 infection which led to the formation of both inpatient and outpatient protocols which came to be known as ‘CATRACHO.’

Taking on the name “Platforma CATRACHO todos contra el covid,” Honduran front-line physician-researchers teamed with colleagues from Texas A&M University, first chronicling the use of a multi-mechanism approach to treating COVID-19, including multiple repurposed drugs applied to the various stages of the SARS-CoV-2-based infection.  

In a recent paper, the Honduran and American teams outlined a multi-mechanism approach that reduced the average ICU patient stay duration by 5.4 days.

This protocol led to a reduction of up to nine days in elderly patient duration and an effective methodology for use in even severely constrained health systems. 

The authors noted that “This treatment protocol could allow a healthcare system to manage 60% more COVID-19 patients with the same number of ICU beds.”

Dr. Valerio and colleagues at Platforma CATRACHO todos contra el covid again teamed with American physician-scientists to produce what would become a peer-reviewed paper published in Epidemiology Journal International. Medwin Publishers

Joining the Hondurans were Dr. Peter McCullough and others from Texas A&M University, featuring the positive results associated with repurposed existing Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved drugs.

In this study, the authors employed the use of Shewhart control charts during the first half-year of the pandemic to analyze 14-day running average COVID-19 case fatality rates both in Honduras and Mexico.

Valerio, et al. commented: “Within two months of the first defection of SARS-CoV-2 in this Central American nation the public health agencies embraced existing repurposed drugs to combat COVID-19.  Specifically, a multidrug COVID-19 inpatient and outpatient national protocol guideline led to the lowering of the documented case fatality rate from 9.33% to 2.97%.”

More specifically the physician-researchers revealed how the national repurposed drug protocols led to the following SARS-CoV-2 case fatality rate declines.

9 days post protocol adoption

17 days post protocol adoption

Case Fatality Rate/COVID-199.33% to 5.01%5.01% to 2.97%

Using Mexico case fatality rates as a control, the authors reported their findings to suggest “statistically significant anomalies” while observing no comparable anomalies in neighboring Mexico. 

The authors suggested “an association between both inpatient and outpatient multidrug treatment of COVID-19 and decreased fatality rates in Honduras.”

The Multidrug Protocols

TrialSite chronicled the early use of ivermectin in Latin America based on anecdotal evidence, prior to the emergence of scientific studies. Early on, Peru embraced the drug: this was featured in a TrialSite produced brief documentary. From the first findings at the University of Monash to predominantly low-to-middle-income countries from Bangladesh, India, to the Dominican Republic and Egypt, TrialSite chronicled ivermectin research which continues to accumulate currently at 78 studies.

While most Western medical establishments discounted this research—only focusing on the few studies that led to no efficacy, or in one case, faulty data—the developing world had no vaccines and had to be resourceful.

The Honduran physicians came up with the multi-mechanism approach or “MMA” for treating COVID-19 in a bid to “block the inflammation, immune system disruption and hypercoagulation” associated with the various stages of the disease and what most physicians believe is the ultimate cause of mortality.

As the pandemic initially worsened, the national government formed what were known as “medical brigades” which did extensive outreach to villages, towns, and cities, visiting the homes of citizens seeking to identify underserved COVID-19 patients. Many front-line physicians would discover, early treatment became an instrumental step in reducing disease progression and easing the strain on an already overburdened health care infrastructure.

The physicians introduced a week-long course of outpatient therapy known as “MAIZ”, a home kit package similar to the one deployed in Uttar Pradesh, India’s most populous state. It included the following:

  • Sodium hypochlorite mouthwash

  • Hydrogen peroxide

  • Azithromycin

  • Ivermectin

  • Zinc

For those patients with symptoms, home care health teams prescribed an outpatient therapy known as “MAIZ-AA” which included additional anti-inflammatory medications (colchicine and prednisone) and an anticoagulant (rivaroxaban).

Documentation

The study authors reported that three months after the first implementation of the MMA protocols in Honduras, other clinicians around the world also showcased positive results associated with many of the products included in the MMA protocols. 

TrialSite tracked a successful study in Canada that showcased positive colchicine results in COLCORONA even as the ivermectin controversy raged in Australia, the United States, and Europe. These developments unfolded even as tocilizumab was authorized on an emergency basis by the FDA and dexamethasone featured as life-saving therapy in severe cases thanks to the RECOVERY study.

Vaccination Status

While Israel’s mass COVID-19 vaccination program commenced by late December 2020, vaccination didn’t commence in Honduras until March 2021, and the actual ramp-up of vaccinations was delayed for months.

By the start of July 2021, 18 months into the pandemic, only 7.7% of the Honduran population had received a single dose of the vaccine while at the same period 56.4% of the entire Israeli population was fully vaccinated with two doses.

The nation first received COVID-19 vaccines distributed via COVAX by the end of May 2021 in the form of 238,000 doses of the AstraZeneca/Oxford vaccine. Honduras was excluded from Chinese vaccine diplomacy because it had diplomatic ties with Taiwan. Other Latin American countries that China shunned include Guatemala, Nicaragua, and Paraguay.   

Honduras received its first sizable vaccine shipment from the U.S (Moderna) by end of June 2021.

Compared to other nations in Central America, the COVID-19 vaccine rollout was slow in Honduras. Recently U.S. Vice President Kamala Harris visited the nation and pledged support to President Xiomara Castro including $3.9 million worth of vaccines through the World Health Organization COVAX facility.

Comparison with Israel

Honduras has about 9.5 million persons and Israel just under 9 million, but that’s where any similarities stop. Israel has an advanced, wealthy economy with a gross domestic product of $353 billion and ranks 31st of all nations; Honduras ranks 106th has a GDP of $22.98 billion. Comparison based on per capita GDP is even more telling, with Israel at $42, 852 and Honduras at $2,467.

And despite a much earlier and higher vaccinated population in Israel, death rates there were similar to Honduras. The case to fatality rate is far higher in Honduras, yet given the health system sophistication in Israel combined with high vaccination rates and access to monoclonal antibodies the case infection rate in Israel is about 8.5X higher than its Central American counterpart. 

Conclusion

Study results suggest Platforma CATRACHO todos contra el covid produced compelling results in the ongoing war against COVID-19. A group of critical care doctors came together to rapidly identify repurposed drugs that could both reduce disease severity and save lives in what is one of the poorest nations in the Western Hemisphere. Thanks to an open, pragmatic national government inpatient and outpatient, effective COVID-19 protocols were adopted across the country.

Dr. Fernando Valerio with the Hospital CEMESA and team also chronicled results, unlike many other low and middle-income countries, and early treatment regimens including ivermectin. They say it shows the utility of statistical process control methods to expeditiously evaluate and monitor the efficacy of COVID-19 therapies with an eye on generalizability in other emergent conditions.

Embalmers discover strange, rubbery ‘worms’ in bodies of the jabbed

Dr Jane Ruby spoke to embalmer Richard Hirschman for the Stew Peters Show on Thursday about "strange, rubbery" plugs found in the veins of deceased Americans. Hirschman took a number of photos of the "worms", which were shown during the interview.

Published: January 31, 2022, 9:10 am

Many vaccinated people who end up on Hirschman’s cutting table have died of a heart attack or stroke. He took long, fibrous strings from one of the bodies. The red part looks like a normal blood clot, but the white fibrous material was not normal, Hirschman said.

The embalmer said a blood clot normally breaks apart easily when touched. “But this white stuff is pretty strong,” he explained. “It’s very pliable, it’s very hard. It is not normal.”

“I’ve contacted colleagues and they see the same thing,” he told Ruby. Hirschman added that the number of people with these types of “worms” has increased by 50 to almost 80 percent in recent times. “I am very concerned about the future.”

Hirschman is now trying to figure out what the material consists of. “My gut tells me it’s caused by the vaccine. I can’t prove that, but if this is caused by the vaccine, just imagine how many people will die in the future,” he said.

“If this tissue ends up in your brain, you’ll have a stroke. If it gets in your heart, you’ll have a heart attack. People need to know this,” he emphasized.

When asked how often he encounters these mysterious strings, he replied: “On 20-24 of the 35 people I have embalmed this month.”

Another vaxxed soccer player bites the dust

Professional soccer player Keanu Staude was diagnosed with myocarditis, which is an inflammation of the heart muscle. The former Bielefeld player, a key member of 1860 Munich, complained of feeling unwell after a match on January 30. Staude, 25, was fully vaccinated.

Published: February 7, 2022, 12:25 pm

MUNICH

The club’s manager Günther Gorenzel had boasted in November last year that his team had a 100 percent vaccination rate, meaning that all sixty members – including players and staff – had been forced to take the shot. Gorenzel had coerced the “skeptics” among them. “I can only say that so far nobody has shown me a solution how to get out of the pandemic without vaccination.”

Staude was examined by medical professionals according to club officials who said he had developed inflammation of the heart muscle.

A statement from the club was issued: “In order not to take any further risks, Keanu Staude will not be able to do competitive sports for at least four weeks and will therefore not be available.” But for all intents and purposes, Staude’s soccer career has ended.

Director Gorenzel hinted at that in his statement. “Keanu will not be doing any more training for the time being and will only rejoin the team after approval by our medical team.”

Staude is one of luckier dozens of soccer players who have suffered from the jab. The 22-year-old Greek soccer player Alexandros Lampis, who played for Ilioupoli FC, died this month. Lampis collapsed after suffering a sudden cardiac arrest during a match.

His dramatic demise happened just 14 minutes into the game at the First Municipal Stadium of Ilioupoli and the match was abandoned shortly afterward. Ilioupoli FC announced his passing not long after the incident.

The shocking increase in soccer players suffering sudden cardiac arrests in 2021 and 2022 is being ignored in the mainstream media.

German doctor confirms that excess mortality is directly linked to Covid 19 vaccination

For Dr Reitz there is no doubt: The excess mortality that has been observed since 2021 is largely due to the vaccination against Covid-19. According to their analyses, particular importance is attached to the booster vaccinations. She cannot understand the silence of leading institutions despite the clear data, nor the uncritical behavior of her colleagues. There is also no correct information about the risks of vaccination.

Published: February 6, 2022, 10:20 am

Reitz is a specialist in general medicine and psychotherapeutic medicine with her own practice in Hamburg. In a speech at the Monday demonstration in Offenbach on January 31, 2022, she presented the results of her research to the audience.

Since the spring of 2021, since the start of the nationwide Covid vaccinations, people have been dying, according to Reitz literally, like flies, so that millions of deaths have now been recorded worldwide. The doctor differentiated between rapid death within the first fourteen days after the vaccination and a permanently increased chance of early death. In the latter case, the booster vaccinations play an important role.

Millions of deaths worldwide are attributable to the Covid vaccination

“In Germany we have such an obvious excess mortality rate of 22 percent in December and 20 percent in November. That hasn’t happened since the war. That’s what a big newspaper wrote.” She expressed astonishment that politicians have never shown any interest in the effects of the shots and instead tried to find ways to make them compulsory.

“You die in Germany. You die in England. They die in Europe. They die all over the world. The fact that no one puts their finger on the wound here, from the press, from the government, is the part that actually makes your blood boil. We’ve all seen it before, that a million deaths don’t interest us. There are millions dead, there are millions dead. Worldwide.”

Reitz pointed out that “very hard data from young people in England” showed that people under 60 have an excess mortality rate of 100 percent. “Hundred percent more chance of dying if you get shots than if you don’t get shots and then get some virus or whatever.”

In Germany there have been around 12 000 to 13 000 deaths per month from vaccinations with numbers rising from booster shots.

“We had ten percent in October. That was way, way, way too much. And we have institutes that are incredibly well paid, such as the Paul Ehrlich Institute and the RKI, which are supposed to be the guardians of our health and should also be able to recognize epidemiological emergencies. All these institutions have this data. Since June, they have seen that we have an inexplicable excess mortality rate that can only be explained by the vaccinations. And what are they all doing? They’re certainly not sounding the alarm.”

She accused Karl Lauterbach, the German Minister of Health of being “absolutely irresponsible”. Reitz added that three-quarters of excess mortality was due to vaccination.

“It’s not just an allergic shock that can occur. Instead, it has been proven – these were American cardiologists, cardiac doctors – that the vessels and organs are inflamed and therefore the probability of developing a serious heart disease increases by 120 percent. Not by 20 percent, but by 120 percent.”

Cancers are rife after Covid vaccination

“It has been proven by a study from Sweden, by Bansal and others, who examined people who had died after vaccination and found up to four months later that the spike proteins, which should actually have been excreted by now, still sit in the cells in the body, in the organs and cause inflammation there. The pathologists in Reutlingen have confirmed the same thing. They also said we see white blood cells everywhere in the organs that don’t belong there. That’s inflammation. That’s why these people died and they could only associate it with the vaccinations,” Reitz explained.

Further studies from Sweden revealed that the human repair mechanisms in the cells become permanently damaged by the vaccinations. “That explains why so many cancers explode when people have been vaccinated. This explains why many illnesses that seemed to have been alleviated reappear,” said Reitz.

“We’ve had a 50 percent increase in probability, an increased number of heart attacks and strokes in emergency hospital admissions since April. That’s what the figures from the RKI say. These are all official data that I bring, these are all studies that exist. They explain why so many people are dying and have died.”

Booster vaccination increases risk of death

“Well, it’s been proven that vaccines are to blame for at least 12 000 deaths a month since November and December. And each booster increases the risk of dying.”

Those who took the jab have fifteen years less to live on average. “So if I were to enlighten someone about vaccination, I would have to say, listen, your risk of dying early from the vaccination, of dying fifteen years earlier, is statistically proven. And the risks of dying from the Corona disease are significantly lower. Would you like to be vaccinated? This information is not communicated anywhere at all. And certainly not for children.”

Life insurer refuses to cover vaccine death

An explosive case is currently being hotly debated on social media: In France, a rich, older entrepreneur from Paris is said to have died as a result of a Corona injection. Previously, he had taken out multi-million dollar life insurance policies for the benefit of his children and grandchildren, according to a media report.

Published: January 14, 2022, 12:30 pm

Although vaccination is recognized as the cause of death by doctors and the insurance company, it has refused to pay out. The reason is because the side effects of the Corona jabs are known and published. They argue that the deceased took part in an experiment at his own risk. Covid-19 in itself is not classed as a “critical illness”.

According to the company, an experimental vaccination resulting in death is like suicide

The insurance company justified the refusal of payment to the family by stating that the use of experimental medication or treatments, including Corona injections, is expressly excluded from the insurance contract. The family’s subsequent lawsuit against the insurance company has been unsuccessful.

The court allegedly justified its ruling as follows: “The side effects of the experimental vaccine are published and the deceased could not claim to have known nothing about it when he voluntarily took the vaccine. There is no law or mandate in France that compelled him to be vaccinated. Hence his death is essentially suicide.” Since suicide is not covered by the policy from the outset, the insurance refuses to budge.

Scandalous verdict: taking a fatal risk is legally suicide

“The court recognizes the classification of the insurer who, in view of the announced side effects, including death, legally regards participation in the phase three experiment, whose proven harmlessness is not given, as voluntarily taking a fatal risk that is not covered by the contract and legally recognized as suicide. The family has appealed. However, the insurer’s defense is recognized as well-founded and contractually justified, as this publicly known fatal risk is legally considered suicide, since the customer has been notified and has agreed to voluntarily take the risk of death without being obliged or compelled to do so.”

No surprise: Mainstream media is silent

This case has not yet been reported in France ‘s mainstream media. The case was published by the family’s lawyer, Carlo Alberto Brusa, on social media. Unfortunately, no sources or court records are given, which is why the authenticity of the report cannot currently be verified although there have been other warnings regarding the risk associated with the jabs recognized by insurers. In the US, the American Council of Life Insurers (ACLI) has denied reports of non-payment.

Censorship

In recent months, many French anti-vaccine groups of the social network Facebook have been victims of sudden, unjustified closures, especially support groups for Brusa and Professor Didier Raoult. The latter has often been criticized for his positions on vaccines, hydroxychloroquine and his criticism of the mismanagement of the epidemic by the Macron government.

At the end of last year, the main support group for Didier Raoult was deactivated before it was reactivated, thanks to a mobilization on social networks and a massive relay on alternative media. On November 27, a teacher support group for Brusa was suspended. With no less than 310 000 members to its credit, the group created in March 2020 was closed for having shared the complaint by Brusa concerning the wearing of masks for children. The Parisian lawyer and his association Réaction-19 was accused of spreading a “conspiracy”.

Global difficulties for insurers due to vaccines

Actuaries have been warning that rising claims will be eroding the capital which insurers set aside to avoid insolvency. Notably, older people do not take out life insurance, which means that the claims have been from younger clients. Insurers say that they expect a rise in excess deaths.

According to Alex Berenson, the risk of injury or death from the jab is exceptionally high judging from Canadian data.

The refusal to pay for a vaccine-related death may not be surprising since globally the life insurance industry has been hit with reported claims of $5,5 billion in the first nine months of 2021 versus $3,5 billion for the whole of 2020, according to insurance broker Howden.

Dutch insurer Aegon, with two-thirds of its business in the US, said its American claims in the third quarter were $111 million, up from $31 million a year earlier.

Vaccine deaths may force insurers to raise premiums and some have indicated that they intend to punish the unvaccinated for their financial woes.
