Scanned through it, don’t see anything I disagree with. If you read my posts you can see. In hospital one has to worry about aerosol transmission which is why hospital workers need masks and lay people don’t. Which is why people hoarding masks to “cash in” are being arrested, right now.

and to what you say, I say...don't fall for that propaganda.

Clue number 1-100: The first story circulated was created by an off-shore source who pieced together a half-truth here, a suspicion there, an anonymous source over yonder, a complete fabrication or ten, weak tangents to a legitimate news article, and voila’ - a Canadian conspiracy. Turn around twice and just as quickly it's now the USA. The same anti-American, Russo/Panda propaganda that created the 9/11 truther basement dwellers. There are 20 some countries doing viral research at any given time but it's always the USA? That's how you know it's sensationalistic vomit.

The reality is the bats in China Yunnan province have Sars. They've had it for over a decade and the locals have antibodies. We know it, the Chinese know it, the virology world knows it, and the propagandists know it. And we all know the Chinese have done nothing to eradicate their flying time bombs. I've posted a dozen papers about the problem. America doesn't have scaly anteaters and we don't use them as chimeric (live) models because they're critically endangered. We use specially bred mice *not found outside a lab*. If the virus backbone came from a lab mouse, American or otherwise, the whole world would know it because over a dozen countries have sequenced the genome. There is anteater RNA and there is horseshoe bat RNA, and maybe some evening bat RNA but no mouse. None. Zip. Nada. Not to mention a RNA virus that mutates every 15 days or so (see the Nextstrain tree) isn't exactly a research candidate. And that's all I've got to say about that tonite. Other than the China Origin Virus ID-19 is 100% indigenous Chinese origin. And you can take that to the bank.

I get the same care you do. And I wouldn’t want it any other way. I have seen first hand how screwed up things get when someone gets “special treatment”. It gets screwed up, every time. There is a reason doctors do the things they do and it is a good one until they find a better one. Most doctors are “doctors”. The doctors that try to be businessmen over doctor do things that make the rest of us cringe. I discovered most doctors don’t know crap about business and that’s why halal fail in two years. When I opened my own practice I made damn sure I understood the business. My collections were 100%. Most are 60%. I kept my practice open so I could see my friends in confidence I wouldn’t go broke.

If. We don’t know that. We could get an idea form recent patients. For some reason we are not getting that and I notice Fauci and Brix have quit talking about drugs. They know.

Like run out of masks even before a pandemic gets started?

Then put out an organized campaign to tell the citizens that masks not only won't help them, but may make them more prone to infection, so they can buy the few that are left?

Also, IIRC, Stanford's study showed the masks lost 4% effectiveness at each successive heating (which *compounds*.

84.9% after 4 times; that's as low as I'd go...

The NYC lawyer who started it there was extubated successfully after about 10 days.

I can find the article if you want.

He was in the ‘young and will likely live’ demographic still, at 50yrs old thereabouts.

I question the point of coughing up $13k in premiums and $6900 in deductibles to finance that manner of callous treatment. Why bother? Stay home. Suck it up.

As I have explained, if it is “droplet” your exposure is different. Have you ever seen a “code”?

The best advice I would give to anyone who is ill, stay home until you are short of breath and call the ambulance.

I've noticed you constantly employ that rhetorical technique.

You ignore the question or just barely touch on it, change the subject, then reference some ancient professional experience of yours and challenge people over said ancient experience.

They describe their frantic hand-waving as “plausible”.
Crock of shit.

WTF are you babbling about? Nobody I’ve seen has ever alleged any of the virus genetic sequence CAME from mice.
I think there may be an article where they tested the affinity of the spike ON mouse receptors. But that’s different.

Nothing you said proves that it couldnt have been part of a lab experiment...even a bioweapon experiment

The bat lady even wondered if it came from her ***LAB***

Yup. We're sucking up another $18k in medical bills from a couple seizures my wife had on Feb 23. 911/ambulance/ER/ICU/2 x CT scan/1 x MRI/EEG/EKG. Diagnosed epileptic. New house policy...no 911. Wait out the seizure. Notify her GP. That assumes normal blood glucose and low ketones, otherwise assume DKA and off to the ER.

“$18k in medical bills”

You’d think the hospitals had the money to buy the PPE for their employees.

They must have used the money for something else.
