One thing is certain, the verdict is still out on this engineered inoculation. Old man time sits on the jury and he will ultimately announce the verdict. I wonder what Israeli officials are thinking right now that 80% or more of their population has taken the jab? More boosters are coming, more variants are certain, more ‘breakthroughs’ are inevitable. Are you up for another jab?

I want to know if doctors are required to pass a spelling test.

Both are steroids but decadron is stronger, fast acting

“I wonder what Israeli officials are thinking right now that 80% or more of their population has taken the jab?”

I was reading an Israeli webpage that said the first vaccinated tended to be old folks that often had co-morbidities and weak immune systems.

Many old folks may think they are “fully vaccinated” but they aren’t fully protected. The medical community needs to develop a counseling system and antibody testing protocol for the older folks.

This is a Saturday morning.

Doctors quite often take time off during the weekends.

ER doctors tend to be very good doctors and steer their patients into proper treatment regimes.

This has links to various guidelines depending on patient status:

I don’t feel energetic enough to go through it right now.

My doctor advised me that since the "disease" the vaccines were targeted for, the covid, had a 99.8% survivability rate and an extremely high recovery rate even if I contracted it, why would I risk fate and get a vaccine for something that wasn't that risky to begin with?

I agreed. No vaccine for me.

pbs? Ok.

I wonder how hard they had to look to find this guy?

Still waiting for someone to tell me what good this vaccine does other than “reduce the symptoms”. I’ve been waiting now for a response to this question for nearly two weeks now.

Never the whole story in these "shame" articles.

Did the person have underlying conditions? Did they take vitamin D and C? What was their lifestyle like?

I have a very conservative pen pal in Washington state who listens to NPR very early in the morning as she's waking up every day. I ask her why she listens to that liberal trash.

She says it's because it tells her what the democRAT talking points are for the day and what the rest of the propaganda media will be reporting on.

She says it's like the canary in the mine shaft.

Covid19 is not only about the risk to you but also to others that you could spread it to like your family.
If your doctor didn’t at least inform you of that for your thoughtful consideration then I would get a new doctor.

I was his choice, which is what all this is about, Choice.

There is no guarantee that he wouldn’t still be hospitalized even if he had gotten the Vaccine.

The only way that would work is if the Vaccine was proven to be 100% effective, which it isn’t.

Disclaimer: I took the Vaccine after consulting with my Oncologist since I have Leukemia. I also know someone who was Vaccinated and still got the Kung Flu.

There are no absolutes in Life, but the Left insists anything that happens to them is someone else’s fault.

That is why we have so many Civil Litigation Lawyers in this Country and 99% of them are DEMONCRATS.

His new choice is to warn people to get vaccinated.

Decadron is able to pass the blood brain barrier. Others can’t.

You’re right but I would be very leery of any physician, whether they were a Birthing Person MD or a Dr that has no defined shape or volume, that was as careless with the language as what we see around here.
