On the ground despite doubling numbers in my region every three days, there is no increase in hospitalizations. I am of the opinion that this has mutated into a common cold. More upper than lower respiratory. What CoVID I am seeing looks more like delta which was devastating no matter what the conga line of idiots has to say.

This continues to look like a game ender.

Promising but we need more time, the variant is new and many cases are in early stages.

“Researchers with Imperial College London, who analyzed PCR test-confirmed COVID-19 cases in England between Nov. 29 and Dec. 11, said their endeavor found “no evidence of Omicron having lower severity than Delta,” judged by looking at “either the proportion of people testing positive who report symptoms, or by the proportion of cases seeking hospital care after infection.””

The bronchial infections have been interesting, but there would be no reason in old patients for the virions to stop there. The lung cell targets are just a few inches away.

No it wasn't, Hugh Hefner of fearporn.

Hey, gassie. Will you be sad when there is no more covids and you have to go back to being just another dummy posting on the internet? Your fifteen minutes is almost up.

p.s. The vax is poison.

p.p.s. Prescribe ivermectin, science denier.

It it turns out that Omicron is causing less hospitalizations and fewer deaths, it will be a blessing. People who were not vaccinated will get natural immunity with little effects with Omicron. That natural immunity will be effective against the Delta Variant. Those who are vaccinated will will get a super boost from a dose of Omicron. However, you may lose your sense of taste and smell in the process.

Thanks gas_dr for the firsthand report!

I have a question, was this statement about Omicron:

“On the ground despite doubling numbers in my region every three days, there is no increase in hospitalizations. I am of the opinion that this has mutated into a common cold. More upper than lower respiratory. “

And this statement about Delta:


What CoVID I am seeing looks more like delta which was devastating no matter what the conga line of idiots has to say.”

Concluding that Omicron will finish off the pandemic:

This continues to look like a game ender.

No I will not be sad high priest of the church I’d cut and paste at the uneducated,com

Delta was simply awful. The month if august in the southeast was something none of us who actually take care patients instead of bejng an arm chair jackass wish to repeat. As usual yoj babe no idea what you are talking about

PS the vaccine has safe countless lives by preventing critical illness

PPS i prescribe something that actually works snd has been shown to work. It’s called monoclonal antibodies. Of course I can actually prescribe that and not have to sniff around horse paste which by the way is never in meta analysis been shown to work as well as MaBs of it works at all.

So….I note you never attack MABS instead play the stupid game of trying to act like someone who knows what he is talking about.

It is pathetic.

Well that’s good, maybe you and some of your cohorts will finally be willing to call out Biden and little lord Fauci and their insistence everyone eventually be quadruple injected, or lose their jobs. Guess we’ll see, but certainly not holding my breath.

That sentence right there makes it seem like you're sampling your own gas.

Delta was simply awful. The month if august in the southeast was something none of us who actually take care patients instead of bejng an arm chair jackass wish to repeat.

But what about your precious vax? How is it possible that so-called 'delta' was so abominable. I remember something about 'safe and effective'. Do you 'member that?

As usual yoj babe no idea what you are talking about.

Did you take another hit of laughing gas?

PPS i prescribe something that actually works snd has been shown to work. It’s called monoclonal antibodies. Of course I can actually prescribe that and not have to sniff around horse paste

Guess what, doc. The 'horse paste' comes in pill form for human consumption. Go ahead, google it. Then cut and paste what you find.

...which by the way is never in meta analysis been shown to work as well as MaBs of it works at all.

Well, that's a lie. You got to stop relying on your corporate, socialist medicine, politically agenda and profit driven 'studies', 'experts', and 'peer reviewed journals. They are all corrupt, and since you follow them, you are seeded with corruption (and ignorance).

But the good news is, you hold out the possibility that ivermectin 'works', when you say, 'if it works at all'. I see that as growth.

So….I note you never attack MABS instead play the stupid game of trying to act like someone who knows what he is talking about.

Why would I attack something that works, as it does seem to. Thing is, ivermectin is cheap and easy to get, if you quacks would stop complying with big pharma, big Fauci, and big derp state. It is a miracle drug and cures the covids. These are the facts, and they are not in dispute.

It is pathetic.

Rude. What IS pathetic is a so-called doctor that denies the science, the facts, and the truth, and is so prideful in what he thinks he knows, that he squashes the very idea that he may be wrong.

Yea, that's pathetic. No offense.

The thing I have noticed on that sight is the graphs for daily cases and daily deaths. There are 4 spikes on cases, approximately the same size. However, each matching spike on deaths gets smaller, to the point where there is no appreciable increase in deaths during the increase of (assumed) omicron cases. This is also represented by the weekly trends. For the world, cases are up 8%, deaths down 6%. For the US, cases are up 20%, deaths down 1%.

I’m glad you asked. As I am all my colleagues have repeatedly pointed out to you Delta patients in the ICU were entirely unvaccinated. So yes the vaccine saved numerous lives.

You are a shill for those who cannot evolve in understanding. You have to be right instead of intelligent.

Perhaps it would be well to have another vacation …. Go ahead. You don’t really add much to the serious conversation

So if being there Court jester is all you aspire to then you are doing well

I hear conga music playing. Look forward to seeing the conga line coming through.

Now I have actual real work to do, so enjoy your day.

I saw some articles that indicated that the effectiveness of the different antibody treatments seems to have shifted as compared to each other, when treating Omicton.

My local test site has had no line for months. Yesterday, a long line wrapped around it.

It seems like the first big Omicron wave (Gauteng Province, around Johannesburg) has already crested, and hospitalizations/severity remained markedly lower than during the Delta wave there.

Delta had a big run there, and it’s wave was complete before Omicron hit. We might have them both overlapping somewhat, if cross-immunity is weaker with Omicron, until Delta naturally burns out locally.

I’m thinkin’ by Spring we’ll be very close if not at the point of this being over.

More variants to come, but people won’t even be aware they’re infected.

I’m thinking about starting a pool on what will the anti-vaccine conspiracy people will latch on to next.
5G?
WWIII?
UFOs?
Or back to Q?
Something with a lot of Cloak and Dagger?

Even worse for them, the vaccinated will still be alive, another wet dream ruined for them.

Sounds like projecting. And a tad ghoulish, I might add.

Not all anti-vaccine mandate people are “anti-vaccine conspiracy people,” by the way. In fact the vast majority of us aren’t.

As for me, I grew up as a Navy brat, living overseas part of the time and also spent several of my adult years working in some “interesting” places abroad. I’m vaxxed out the ying-yang with all kinds of stuff. Even the anthrax series.

But the government never tried to *force* any of those shots on me, using despicable tactics like the current regime is doing.

Oh, a wise guy.

You're forgetting the 'colleagues' all over this country and the world who say the 'stupid vaxxed' are the majority of the ones in ICU, hospitalized, sick, and dying. What about THOSE colleagues. Are they all lying? Or are you and your 'colleagues'?

So, no. the vaccine is not saving numerous lives. Quite the opposite. In fact, if people didn't rely on a blatantly fake and poison vax, the so-called 'medical community' would stress treatment with cheap and easily accessible miracle drugs like ivermectin and other early treatments, well before people ended up in the ICU. Deep down inside, you know this.

You are a shill for those who cannot evolve in understanding. You have to be right instead of intelligent.

You keep saying that word (shill). I don't think it means what you think it means. A 'shill' is somebody who goes on the internet and represents something harmful to the zeitgeist of that particular social media while pretending to be 'one of us'.

For example, a person who pushes a deadly, ineffective, and fake vaccine on a normally freedom loving, free thinking web site like FreeRepublic.com. Of course I'm talking about you. You adopt and project the language used against you, and like with the fake vax, think its effective. It is not, vax shill.

So if being there Court jester is all you aspire to then you are doing well.

I do more than well in all I attempt. I am your superior in every way.

I hear conga music playing. Look forward to seeing the conga line coming through.

What else do you hear in your head, gassie? Do you hear Fauci whispering his 'guidance'?

Now I have actual real work to do, so enjoy your day.

You mean shilling for the fake poison vax is not 'real work'? Here's to hoping you get conked on the head and wake up prescribing ivermectin.

——————————————————————————————————————————

It does sound ghoulish. Very sick. But that’s what I’ve been told awaits me because I’m vaccinated. Did you assume I made that up?

Look at post of the loony rabid anti-vaxxers……..since around March they’ve been predicting the vaccinated are going to die as a result of being vaccinated.
Comments include plans to loot from the dead to “don’t worry, you’ll be gone soon enough” directed to me.

As far as you being anti-vaccine mandate (as I am) and not a conspiracy nut, that puts us in Group #1 as I pointed out.

Odd that we agree but your comment seems to try to show we don’t or assume we don’t. Read what I said again.

Good thing none of you deluded, sheeply followers never said the same of us purebloods. Or that we have 'blood on our hands' and are responsible for the covid spreading and death. Or better yet, are 'domestic terrorists'.

So what about that, rabbit?

As far as you being anti-vaccine mandate (as I am)....

There you go again, vaxxy. Pretending to be 'anti-mandate' while at the same time advocating the very thing that is the foundation and justification for 'mandates'. You vax rabbits are enemies of the people. Hitler loved people like you (Godwin's law infraction).

Read what I said again.

Stop trying to torture people. Its bad enough anybody read it in the first place.
