The price of going unvaccinated is rising. Will that persuade more people to get the jab?
The Dallas Morning News ^ | August 29, 2021 | Mitchell Schnurman

If the health risks of COVID-19 aren’t enough to drive more people to get vaccinated, what about the cost of treatment — or even health insurance?

In June and July, the estimated costs for treating unvaccinated patients hospitalized for COVID were at least $2.3 billion, according to a recent report by researchers at the Kaiser Family Foundation. In Texas, the total probably surpassed $280 million, although researchers acknowledge the actual burden was probably higher in the state and country.

They estimated that 113,000 preventable hospitalizations occurred nationwide at an average cost of $20,000 a person.

“””The price of going unvaccinated is rising.”””


NO.

The price of covid is rising because the Medical Bureaucrats refuse to allow treatments like Hydroxychloroquine, ivermectin, and regeneron to be used to treat people.

Lower the price of covid by treating people with therapeutics known to be effective.

But the Medical Bureaucrats want to increase the cost of covid by pushing vaccines that are known to have no long lasting effectiveness.

Completed long-term safety studies - in 5-10 years. Then I’ll consider the evidence.

Remember all the blue haired ladies that attacked Danny Rostenkowski when changes were planned to Social Security? LOL, multiply that by 30 million times should there by any move to tie Ss/Medicare to getting vaxxed.

While its becoming more clear that being vaccinated seems to have no effect on contracting the disease or not

Since early estimates and claims about mask-wearing, social-distancing, severity, and herd immunity have all fallen apart, NOW the claim is: being vaccinated will at least lessen the severity of the disease.

let’s see how this most recent claim stands up over time.

How do I know that unvaccinated people haven’t been targeted by medicos in order to affect the outcomes.

Never trust marxists! They will do anything.

Health Risks of Covid ???

I don’t see Any health risks from covid-19. I’ve met three people who said they had it since December. All got over it. The last person followed Dr Zelenko’s protocol (hydroxychloroquine, zinc, vitc&d3) and got over it in 3 days.

Reports from Israel and Iceland show vaxxed people getting sick. So the “vaccine” does NOTHING. It’s a set-up to make people vax dependent - like crack cocaine or worse.

If you choose the Vaccine path, expect to become very unhealthy and drug dependent: a medical zombie.

Like the climate change ruse, these people are trying a new angle every day.

Tomorrow it will be a puppy fearfully cringing in a gutter.

$2.3 billion to save lives? The Democrats are proposing to spend 20 times that much just to blow up ‘racist highways’.

Now that they don’t have to worry about elections anymore, they don’t care what we say or how mad we get.

Yesterday, Worldometer reported 37,237 new covid cases in the USA.

What we do not know is how many of those 37,237 new cases were in people who were fully vaccinated.

If the Medical Bureaucrats were so confident that the vaccines actually worked, they would publish the number of new covid cases among the vaxxed and unvaxxed each day.

Since the Medical Bureaucrats do not publish those numbers, we can conclude they know the vaccines are ineffective.

I am waiting for a vaccine that does not have such a high rate of heart inflamation. I already have a damaged heart and the current set of vaccines could cause severe heart damage, possibly even result in permanent disability or death for me.

Ora-vac appears to be one such candidate but I will have to see what their results are post clinical trials.

Great story—my story is that my liberal Democrat SIL got her second vaxx, starting feeling pain in her hip, is now stuck in the hospital and the docs say they have no idea what is going on...it has now been ten days...she is still in the hospital.

These vaxxes got rushed to market by greedy Big Pharma who didn’t do the real hard work (that takes many years) to see the impact on all the different types of folks out there...

Bad medicine...all the lies in the world can’t fix that.

In 2017 the Dallas Morning News wrote an editorial... “How burgers are tools for mass destruction”. They of course repeated the out and out propaganda that it takes approximately 2000 gallons of water to produce a pound of beef. This whopper has been repeated so often by Google, etc. that it is now considered fact by most people.

This is what passes for journalism these days.
