Sorry you did not need to refute my comments. That is not a rule here. No need to do it again...Your time and mine is too valuable.
I certainly did not expect you to refute or ignore pretty much everything I said...No common ground. I spent a lot of time trying to share what believe, know, and have found to be true. Sorry I wasted your time and mine.
SIX Screen Shots?? I don’t know what platform you are using to post on FR, but for the most part, “tags” are not necessary. A simple copy and paste works well...eh and links are simply copy and paste too. You are smart—it is not that difficult. If you are using an iPhone, that may be your problem...I suggest you use a tablet—they work better.
Thank you so much for clarifying my misunderstandings...One twitter link and lots of opinions. I will share your post with the medical professionals in my family, one with PhD who actually works on pharmaceutical clinical trials data, and one with MS in progress in infectious diseases/infection control. They will appreciate the corrections and repudiations from someone with your credentials and research efforts./sarc
/No sarc I am truly sorry your husband’s doctor lost NINE patients in one week. You are focusing on fact that they are unvaxxed...I am going to change the focus...Now I know your husband has a personal affiliation with this doctor, so I am not trying to be snarky about this, but personally, I would be concerned about what protocols were being followed to lose 9 patients in one week—vaxxed or not vaxxed. There are “anti-vaxquackpots” who have not lost any patients...Does the hospital only allow CDC protocols? Remdesivir?
I don’t know what prophylaxis the “9 unvaccinated” patients were using—or if anything was recommended/prescribed by your husband’s libertarian doc. Perhaps patients were not aware of Ivermectin or perhaps they were...Though you clearly don’t approve of alternative therapies; many do, some here have seen them work first-hand. Sadly, some people find out about HCQ or Ivermectin D3/Zinc, etc. late in the game as the Media Matters types and YouTube/Twitter/FB have done their best to censor, attack anyone with an alternative therapy...anti-vaxquackpots? and denigrate the therapies. Hmmm.
The virus attacks BOTH vaxxed and unvaxxed...Both are spreading it...2 articles today about 2 people who had received 3 shots...one in ICU and one died. It is not a pandemic of the unvaccinated.
You don’t know me so you don’t know what I think—what I have allowed and not allowed. I am not a victim of anything...and clearly you don’t care what I think, which is fine.
LOL uh, yeah, I have been to Twitter...Just a little bit. My start date is August of 2009—Yours? Eh I really don’t care. Since 2020, I prefer other platforms...Twitter is leftist attacking conservatives, promoting censorship/globalism. Regarding Vit. C and crapping out COVID, that was not what the doctors in that Tweet said—they were talking about determining mega Vit C dosages. Actually it is true that if you want to see how much Vit. C your body can tolerate/max dose which is what some doctors recommend to fight a cold/flu/virus..., you take it until you have diarrhea. Nothing to do with pooping out COVID...
BTW, I noticed that your Twitter source is a doctor correspondent who used to be with ABC but is now “Senior writer focusing on anti-vaccine misinfo, right-wing extremism, and legal issues” with MEDIA MATTERS?!?! Sheesh—Media Matters? Talk about fake news...Explains a lot!!
Many here (including me) have spent considerable time researching the virus and the “vaccine” from a variety of sources. And you question my sources or research? Seriously? Media Matters?
I am not beaten down, but I am very sad for our country because of how the virus was used to hurt the economy, and the “vaccine” and the mandates are being used to install a 2-tiered system of medical tyranny. I am sad that you don’t see that. But for the compliant, life will be easy for a while anyway.
Time will tell regarding these vaccines, and truth is being revealed daily with breakthrough infections of people who got 2 or 3 shots...
FR really is not insular, but some people take time lurking a while before going total snark. Early on, I got a major smack down. I did not snark back~I was polite and reasonable—I learned a little more about FR, the formal rules and unwritten rules...Actually I became friends with that person corresponding privately about all sorts of things....And yes, at FR we absolutely do look at start dates because there have been many trolls and posers here with suspect agendas—they often emerge during intense political times like now and during elections....
In the mean time, y’all* enjoy FR...
*(you spelled it incorrectly as “yall” in first post to me—I lived in TN for several years, so it stood out).
I have come to view COVID as correctly described as a 2 stage disease, which does not manifest as Stage 2 in most people. Stage 1 is usually harmless to the infected person, and is largely confined to nasal passages (minor leakage is usually not serious, apparently), but it is often highly contagious. Stage 1 is epidemic to most everybody.
Stage 2 is where it gets further - bloodstream, serious lung infection, etc., and starts kicking off the comorbidities when present. Stage 2 is the real epidemic of the vulnerable unvaccinated.
As for the rest:
I question if you have gone out and personally acquired a large amount of information from very numerous people of varying backgrounds and beliefs “in the flesh”. If lacking other access, volunteer a few weeks, helping out as your abilities allow, in a hospital or two. Or do that through someone in whom you have complete, well earned trust. Because... virtually ALL else in this modern world is often (OFTEN!) illusion. (Even me, as “PaulR” on FR, might be illusion or deception, but at least I suggest a proper alternate course for learning about something that can be life or death from misinformation.)
Thanks but my IPad would be no different. I see the quote box down there now.
Yeah I have a doctor and a nurse in the family and they aren’t anti-vax so we could go on indefinitely.
That’s right, those 9 unvaccinated patients’ deaths had nothing to do with the fact that they were unvaccinated despite the fact that the great majority of hospitalizations & deaths in the area are all, wait for it—unvaccinated. Just a coincidence. I’m sure the my husband’s doctor strangled them with ventilators because zinc and vinegar weren’t available. I like the way you put quotes around 9 unvaccinated as though I’m creating it for my Soros-Bill Gates paycheck.
I was waiting for !BUT MEDIA MATTERS! It was the quickest source I could find and there it is, regardless, some quack advising people to take vitamin C until they get sick and when you get better, start again. Have fun with that if you want.
Look I’m going to be straight with you because my patience with this is at a low. Mandates are separate but you continue to try to lump them together in an attempt to mislead and fake a point. Comply, blah, blah. My husband and I had the common sense to get vaccinated and I’m sorry you don’t, but reasoning is beyond you. You’re in the land of emotions.
As for this site, you presume to know how long I lurked, or didn’t. We’re all adults; I didn’t sign up here to play ingenue. This is a political forum for Lord’s sake. I believe in treating people with respect but I don’t sit still for “smack downs” in any setting and always smack back. If something else is expected of me, this is not a good fit. That may very well be the case.
You doubted that Im really Southern because of a typo? Really?
The paranoia.
