Phil was a great radio host. He originally expressed concern about the vaccines, but toward the end regretted that he was not more explicitly pro-vax. Unfortunately he tried a bunch of the stuff that doesn't work (Ivermectin, Vitamin D, etc.) which . . . didn't work. Phil Valentine was 61 years old.
“He probably waited too late. Once covid gets serious enough for hospitalization - Ivermectin or MABS won’t help.”
I tell EVERYONE to start treatment ASAP, no matter the circumstances ... too many people tell me, “Oh, they’re young and healthy, so don’t need treatment”
We’re worried about the long term effects. Not how we will feel 4-5 months later. There are no studies and no data. Glad you’re still alive after taking it in March lolz.
Because they can nuke us back?
“why hasn’t China been turned to glass”
Because: Bill Clinton.
“This is the crux of the matter. While you wait to see if you just have the flu..or wait to see if ivermectin will work...the clock is ticking for what really can help you.”
No. The crux of the matter is that this is “anecdotal” - it doesn’t prove anything.
There are nearly eight billion people on the planet, so shit happens. Tragedy can strike almost anywhere in almost any form, but it doesn’t indicate cause and effect and it certainly doesn’t dictate sound medical prognosis.
People keep posting stories of some poor soul regretting not getting vaccinated - it proves nothing.
Make a real argument, back it up with a scientific rationale, show me the studies and supporting statistics, and explain why you trust the source.
Anecdotal examples like this one appeal to the emotions of low IQ people.
You believe what you choose to believe. Its not my job to educate you to prevent your death.
You could end up like the freeper who died when she couldnt get the infusion...or you might live with no problem after getting Covid
“Its not my job to educate you to prevent your death.”
Haha. That’s a relief!
Ok, how long?
If in two years I am fine, then what? Probably, you will be alive and fine after two years.
From where I am standing, I’m very much certain I will be fine.
RIP.
I’ve wondered the same thing.
Very simply, mitigation that can turn around “original” Covid spread knocks down flu, much more effectively. Plus, flu doesn’t typically shed for long / a lot prior to one feeling fairly bad — usually sick enough to be home in bed. With Covid about, I think most people beginning to feel ill did not try to go out and around as much as in previous years. The general guidance for anyone symptomatic at all was (and still is) to quarantine immediately. The difference with Covid is that it often sheds a lot starting a couple days before one notices symptoms.
Correct. This needs to be emphasized here on FR over and over.
Additionally, once the treatment window for Covid itself closes, unless a comorbidity is already firing up, one may well have better odds at home than in a (over busy?) hospital, where secondary infections and such are always a risk.
Dang - in that pic he REALLY looks like an old high school buddy of mine!
Terrible. RIP.
