Sorry, this isn't a game of win or lose, Blasio lover.

MONTGOMERY, Ala. (AP) — Healthy and in their 30s, Christina and Josh Tidmore figured they were low-risk for COVID-19. With conflicting viewpoints about whether to get vaccinated against the virus filling their social media feeds and social circles, they decided to wait.
On July 20, Josh came home from work with a slight cough initially thought to be sinus trouble. On Aug. 11, he died of COVID-19 at a north Alabama hospital as Christina Tidmore witnessed a doctor and her team frantically try to resuscitate her husband.
“She would say, ’I need a pulse. ’I would hear, ‘no pulse,’ “Christina Tidmore said through tears. “They were trying so hard.”
“Nobody should go through this. He was only 36 and I’m 35 and we have three kids.”
She is now imploring young adults not to dismiss the risk and to consider getting vaccinated.
“Josh was completely healthy, active, not a smoker.” He would have turned 37 on Saturday.

Sorry, this isn't a game of win or lose, Blasio lover.
by the way, you’re arguing with yourself in post #237... 😁...
I think he was talking to me when he pulled the Godwin's law shtick.
I'm using Berlin's post as an opportunity to express my concern about the continued degradation of the quality of discussion on FR. Your civil and reasonable comments were consistently vilified by other Freepers in words that were boorish, ignorant and sometimes were just pure name-calling. Twenty years ago, when I joined FR, there might have been some of that but I don't think it was nearly as frequent or extreme as it is today. This is a tremendous disappointment. I wish there were a way to change it but I don't know what it could be. I just added CIVIL COMMENTER to my tag line. Maybe if more of us did that it could become an FR trend and discourage what we have seen in this shameful thread.
On the topic of COVID specifically, I am amazed at how many people want to discount someone's death by positing "underlying conditions" that they really know nothing about. Further, even if the person had an underlying condition, are they just dismissing that person's death? The fact is that the person did not have to die, even with underlying conditions, except for COVID.
Keep up the good fight.
The question remains: WHOSE criteria?
I am nothing if not fun.
: )
Good post.
disorientation could be a side effect of the experimental shots... 🤔...
No doubt.
Another side effect is thinking D'Blasio is awesome.

I don’t know yet. There have been lots of these discovered, using
different people. I’ve collected a couple as they went by, but this one
seems special.
And he looks like this guy…
~Easy
Roman, I appreciate your fiery conviction and I take it seriously.
GASDR and MOMMD and other busy FReeper professionals who take the time to share your informed frontline perspectives here, your input is highly valued and you are one of the things that make FR great. Thanks for your patience and for caring enough to speak up.
Not quite sure what to do with Bagster and Berlin, but hey.

That’s some jab!
Or you could go with “smarmy_dr”, or “insufferably_pompous_dr”...
It’s from the movie. A big discussion isn’t necessary.
another is still being scared of catching the virus even though you got vaccinated to protect yourself from it...
”Gaslighting is a colloquialism that is simply defined as to make someone question their reality. The term is also used, informally, to describe the persistent promotion of a false narrative by someone which ultimately causes another (a person or a group of people) to question their perceptions or memory. These situations can become emotionally traumatic when the audience is fearful of losses associated with challenging the false narrative, there is a power dynamic, or the audience is otherwise vulnerable.

I ask because it’s not impossible that someone’s doing it for a lark, or to use as a distraction later on.
I appreciate your comments.
“Trump is not a doctor.”
True that. However, when he recommends getting the vaccine he doesn’t know what he’s talking about (per some FReepers), but when he speaks out against the booster he’s a genius. Ironic, ain’t it?
