"You're Gonna Die Up There" A Woman Died Of Coronavirus On A Spirit Flight But Fellow Passengers Were Never Notified


A woman died of coronavirus on a Spirit flight but fellow passengers were never notified 

A woman died of coronavirus on a plane. Her fellow passengers were never notified. When Spirit Airlines learned that a Texas woman had died of covid-19 on one of its flights in July, the airline said it alerted the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and received an acknowledgment from the agency. 

But Spirit spokesman Erik Hofmeyer said it was never asked by health authorities to share passenger manifests to aid in tracking down people who might have been exposed. 

State health officials in New Mexico, where the woman was declared dead after the Dallas-bound Spirit flight was diverted to Albuquerque, acknowledged they failed to investigate, as did the CDC. 

The first the woman’s fellow passengers probably heard that her death was caused by the virus was in October, when The Washington Post and other news organizations were able to determine what flight the woman had been on, building on limited details about the case that were released by officials in Dallas County. By that time, it was far too late for the information to be useful in helping slow the potential spread of the virus. 

Meanwhile, the CDC said it has no record of being contacted by Spirit. 

The woman’s death was an extreme example of an in-flight coronavirus case, but it highlights the gaps in the nation’s efforts to protect citizens and improve the safety of air travel during the pandemic. The CDC and outside researchers both say limits on contact tracing and subsequent testing have made it hard to determine how air travel may be spreading the virus. Source

"You're Gonna Die Up There" NOVEMBER 2020

Our Lady Of Loreto Is The Patroness Of St Thomas Aquinas Versus NASA Blog NOVEMBER 2020


Pope St. John XXIII made a pilgrimage to the Holy House on October 4, 1962 to pray the day before the opening of Vatican Council II, to ask the Blessed Virgin's protection of the Council. Pope Benedict made the same pilgrimage 50 years later on October 4, 2012.Source

148 days after his visit to the Flying House Pope Benedict resigned.

Our Lady of Loreto is the Patroness of Aviation?

What? No, She is not. 

The Flying House of Our Lady would NEVER violate the law of God!

The Flying House NEVER flew above 29,050ft, but modern day aircraft violate this boundary 24/7.

Many Catholics are ignorant of the boundary that God has established that man must not pass over and that is 29,050 ft or 15 cubits above the mountain tops.

This 29,050 boundary is the same level that the waters of the Deluge reached in the time of Noe cleansing the world of sin.

This boundary is the same that the fires of the final conflagration will reach at the end of days to cleanse the world of sin.

Of course none of you believe a word of this, and that is where the problem lies. 

Modern man violates the boundary but nature does not.

Modern men violate the law of God with air and space travel - all commercial flights exceed 29,050 ft 24/7.

What happens when men violate God's laws?

Punishments in one form or another. 

So with this in mind I now made  Our Lady of Loreto as the Patroness of St Thomas Aquinas Versus NASA Blog

I will invoke Our Lady of Loreto during Mass to destroy the air and space industry.

Just like a few men prayed to God to destroy the tower of Babel.

Will update regularly

From Candlemass to Easter (through Holy Week), AND from the day after Pentecost (or from Trinity Sunday, if Pentecost is celebrated with octave) to the beginning of Advent:

V. "Pray for us" and prayer "Grant unto thy servants," as above:

During Eastertide (from Easter day through Pentecost, and throughout the octave of Pentecost if it is celebrated):

V. Rejoice and be glad, O Virgin Mary, alleluia.
R. For the Lord is truely risen, alleluia.

Let us pray. O God, Who by the resurrection of Thy Son, our Lord Jesus Christ, hast vouchsafed to make glad the whole world, grant, we beseech Thee, that through the intercession of the Virgin Mary, His mother, we may attain the joys of eternal life, through the same Christ our Lord. R. Amen.
