Idiots. Canadians.
Sounds like a couple of Whole Foods progressive commies.
They googled “natural cures for just about anything”.
Although I disagree with most refusals to vaccinate, that’s something different from failing to seek appropriate treatment for an illness.
I know of one guy that told a schizophrenic he wouldn’t have to take his medication if he only ensured that he ate a fully nutritious diet.
“The most common of all follies is to believe passionately in the palpably not true. It is the chief occupation of mankind.” — H. L. Mencken
This is Darwinism being in display. That child will not be able to kill his child...the defective genetics are not passed forward. This is what natural selection looks like in the real world. (Personally? The parents are guilty of murder and should be held accountable.).
What, no colloidal silver?
My daughter used to work in a medical clinic. She said that there are so many children who are sickened and quite a few that die shortly after being vaccinated but most doctors write it off as “some other” cause. I’m all for vaccinations but I believe they give too many at one time.
It's as if everyone welcomes corporate medicine brain washing or something.
After all, we're a bunch of sheep that don't question fractional reserve banking, why we're carrying coins that no longer contain precious metals. We don't question unchecked boarders, and self enforce politically correct speech and allow our rights to be taxed and regulated away.
If you default to thinking those parents are stupid, you should look in the mirror and take a long hard look at stupid. You're entirely too susceptible to brain washing.
Behold the unfathomable stupidity of the Canadian left. The education system here produced these whack-jobs. My country is lost.
I could go on for hours but haven’t the energy. Watching the majority of the populace slip into a collective state of retardation, I live in a sea of zombified morons who can’t think for themselves at the best of times, but when they do, this type of horror show is the result.
Everyone I meet in my leftist stronghold is dumber than a sack of hammers.
And if had only gotten his shots the child would have lived forever.
Every bit as vacuous as that piece claiming 80 year old Antonin Scalia is dead because he did not follow doctors’ advice.
...O'Malley? ;-)
The viral form is most common, and in a toddler, would appear to be a 24-48 hour mild flu like, nonspecific illness.
In an adult, it will put you in the ICU for a week.
Antibiotics do nothing to treat viral meningitis.Child or adult.
Managing the almost unimaginable pain, and monitoring for secondary complications is the extent of the palliative care, and is about all that can be done medically.It's a 100% crap shoot on how much damage the condition will wreak on any given patient.
Bacterial meningitis, the more rare but deadly version, if accurately diagnosed within 24-48 hours of onset, can be treated with massive antibiotics, and requires intensive care in hospital, under isolated, ICU supervision.
There is little chance of surviving and recovering completely, without some measurable degree of lingering weakness/disability.
Ranging from negligible to large loss of hearing, sight,motor function, memory etc.
One won't be unscathed.
I wish I didn't know this, since I learned all these details through personal experience.
I am thankful I “only” had the viral version.
There is no acquired immunity, having once had the viral version.
I tend to freak out when I get a headache now....
