I haven't posted for several years after my comments were unceremonially erased by moderators. I am a conservative who voted for Trump and hope to vote for Pompeo. So my pedigree is established. I'm afraid that FreeRepublic is becoming a nucleus for some very bad information about covid. I've had several uvaccinated friends die in their 40's from covid. This dangerous possible bioweapon is very dangerous. I am vaccinated and am glad I am. My 101 year old mother in law survived a bout with covid because of her vaccinations. The vaccine is a rough one. I had 2-3 days of side effects leaving some scars on my shoulder. The MRNA vaccines. The vaccine (more like a prophylactic therapeutic ) does not protect you from the disease. It only mitigates symptoms. I'm saying all this to urge conservatives that are in risk categories to get vaccinated. We have already lost at least 2 talk show hosts and Herman Cain to this insidious Wuhan flu. So go ahead and flame me and join the suffering ones from Idaho.
You seem to be succumbing to the cult. My wife and I (both 60+ and UNvaccinated) are almost completely recovered from COVID. While it was a rough 2-1/2 weeks I wouldn’t wish on anyone, there never was a time where I thought we were in danger. I realize the virus can be dangerous for a few, but I think our experience is probably most typical. We were able to get the monoclonal antibody treatment, but I think it was a little late to do much good. It’s a relief to have it over and done with!
I have not received the shots as of now - and I am very happy for those who found it in their best interest to do so.
Ever made ginger beer? It is a lengthy process. First you start with yeast... any old yeast, be it bakers or brewers or whatever. You feed it and make it happy. Then you introduce just a little ginger because ginger kills yeast. Most of the yeast dies but some are more tolerant than others. So you feed and add more ginger and feed and add more ginger until the yeast is happy as a clam with ginger in their food. After a while the yeast dont care about the ginger, in fact do better with it and you can brew ginger beer.
Unfortunately you are too dumb to connect dots, so have a ginger beer instead.
Poor baby...
Eventually Covid is not going to be the main discussion on Freerepublic. We’ll get back to being normal someday.
I agree the name calling is not helpful.
Yes, I’m referring to you.
Lucianne.com?
To each his own...I’m 70 years old and I haven’t had a flu shot in 40 years, nor a cold...although I do get a runny nose sometimes when I eat chicken noodle soup.
The difference with me is, at the advice of my Special Forces battalion medic, 40 years ago, I started taking immune system supplements and haven’t been sick since. I’ve been to some real $hit-hole countries and only got an occasional stomach problem when I got back to eating American food. I’ll take the vaccine when I regain trust in my government....which will probably be.....never.
I for one can’t wait until there’s other threads besides covid and Biden’s dementia issues.
This!!!
Not so 2nd Amendment!
The Wuhan virus is easily treatable early in an infection with hydroxychloroquine+zinc, Ivermectin, and nebulized hydrogen peroxide. It is treatable at any time with high dose vitamin C, as is mandated by law in Shanghai China http://orthomolecular.org/resources/omns/v16n16.shtml .
But in the USA a person has to be well-prepared to treat themselves at home, otherwise they should get a vaccine in spite of the unusually high risks.
And even if you decide to get the vaccine, you should also prepare to treat yourself at home, since the vaccines are no guarantee against catching a mutated virus.
And now those of us who took the vaccine twice without full knowledge of the risks, need to decide if we keep on taking booster shots knowing that each shot is Russian roulette for heart inflammation and other side effects. Unless I’m missing something obvious, it’s not that easy to make a rational decision about it. I’m hoping that some new vaccine, maybe Novavax, will be conspicuously safer than the Pfizer, Moderna, and J&J vaccines.
This.
The mRNA encodes a foreign protein.
It induces your body’s natural genetic apparatus to produce this foreign protein. So then you have a particle from a virus now being made in your own body.
And they have no idea what effects it will have.
Here is my approach. I hesitated getting the vaccine until some family members got COVID. They are young people and had mild cases, but I am in the high-risk category, so I got the shot. Afterwards, my employer (an agency of the state of Illinois) started to require it. At least I got it by my own choice. I had no side effects, not even a sore spot. My wife had mild flu-like symptoms for a day after each dose. On the very day I got the first shot, I found out that one of my cousin’s kids, in his thirties, had stopped breathing when he got his shot, but he is okay now.
I have read so much conflicting, contradictory information about the vaccination and the disease — on FR and everywhere else—that I have stopped believing anything I read about them. In fact, I have stopped reading about them. I did what I thought was the right thing, and whatever happens from here on out is in the hands of God. I mean that, literally, and I am okay with that.
In all sincerity, I will not go anywhere if Mr. Jim can tolerate my posts. Even though I haven’t posted for years, I read FreeRepublic daily
y. (I go back to the “stuned and hanging chad” days) FreeRepublic is one of the last refuges for freedom loving Americans, but coming from academia I sometimes like to debate too much. I’m so glad so many of you are showing courage in the face of this pandemic. I know the communist nihilistic ‘rats have used this to their maximum advantage. But I do want intelligent decisions to be made before a cytokine storm kills you.
Um.
According to your history, you’ve been largely inactive since 2019.
Not sure we’ll miss ya that much. :^)
When I got the J&J in March they told us that it wouldn’t necessarily prevent us from getting COVID but our symptoms would be as bad.
I just had a D-Dimer test and it was negative - nevertheless I’m taking ivermectin, quecertin, zinc, D3, C, iodine and full aspirin as mentioned by Dr McCullough to help avoid clots. I’ve had moments of not feeling so great and most others with no problem.
This whole thing is unpredictable - you can die from the virus and die from the “vaccine”. Seems like chances are better to recover naturally in most cases...unless you’re fat or old.
Wish we could throw Fauci and cohorts in prison for crimes against humanity.
This is a decent thread - you ought to reconsider leaving.
Vitamin C, D3, L-Lysine, probiotics, fish oil, and Quercetin are what I use as Covid prophylactics, along with multivitamins and a few other supplements (e.g., COQ10) for other things.
I am going to miss you. And no, that isn’t sarcasm.
