I got sick last night....
The Fop

Posted on 12/26/2021 4:13:14 PM PST by The Fop

..... And I'll never know whether or not it's COVID, because I refuse to get tested.

Started getting chills and body aches after attending a Christmas party. Not crazy shivers and fever like the flu, but more mild. Rested all day today, took Tylenol, and feeling much better. Will rest again tomorrow and see if I develop stuffed nose and cough.

The point is, prior to COVID, if a bunch of people who know each other, or work together, were getting sick, they'd say "I think there's something going around". And then they'd get over it and get back on with their lives.

That's exactly what I intend to do, even if the whole world around me has gone completely nuts.

have no experience swabbing. just shooting it up from a squeeze bottle seemed easier to me. let me know what you come up with for comparison.

I got the same thing days ago. Had what felt like a bad cold that lasted for 3 days. Was able to get a test, but awaiting the results.

Thanks for that I’ll have to get some distilled water or RO water to try this. Just to be clear on the 3 parts baking soda and 1 part salt (I’m assuming iodized table salt?), that would mean 3/4 table spoon baking soda and 1/4 table spoon of salt, and 2 tablespoons of 10% povidone iodine into 1 cup of water? Mix it up and then put in a dropper bottle or nasal sprayer? Sounds easy enough. Thanks in advance.

What about 10% povidone iodine like the mixture dadfly posted right before you?

I don’t know where exactly I would fit on the spectrum of survival rate, based on my age and overall health. But I’m sure it’s at least 99.0%. That’s way more than good enough for me.

right. except we’re doing teaspoons not tablespoons. i’m going to try to up the povidone gradually and see if it bothers my nose at a certain level.

I meant to ask when you spray your nose do you spray it and leave it or rinse it out after some time? I would think it would burn pretty bad by not rinsing

i just let it stream out the other nostril. no rinsing or self rinsing i guess.

it actually feels good after at the dose we’re doing it. like a warm clensing.

no burning at all, but there is a lot of nose blowing and used kleenex after.

Personally, I think riding a motorcycle on a highway is one of the craziest, most dangerous things a person could ever do to unnecessarily risk their life and health.

But I know that if I tried to make this argument to a hardcore biker, it would fall on deaf ears. Life is full of risks, and each of us are willing to take different risks, based on our personality traits.

I despise the evil bastards who created this bio weapon, and all their filthy props of fear..... The masks, the plexiglass, the social distancing stickers on the floor, the testing centers.

I will not acquiesce to them in any way, and here’s why...... If everyone was like me, they never would have been able to impose any of these protocols, because there would be massive resistance from everywhere. And I don’t think any of these safety protocols have saved one single life. They’ve only destroyed lives and livelihoods.

So for me, this is much bigger than my one lone life. If this country wasn’t ruled by evil monsters, then every single person would be getting free kits with ivermectin, zinc, and zythromicin. But instead they lie to us, and oppress us. But I should run out and shove one of their filthy swabs up my nose, because I’m worried about my own rear end?

We allowed this tyranny to happen, because we were all too worried about our own individual rear ends, instead of banding together in solidarity against these monsters.

Where are these tubes $5-$10? I’m seeing them around $19 on Amazon for Duramectin and a 3 pack of the Ivermectin by Durvet for $99 and another seller selling it at $129. $5-$10 per tube is before Covid 19 caused the price gouging right?

Recommend going to your local Tractor supply and see what you can find. Prices? Seriously?

He thought ivermectin would save him. It did not.

Did he do simple things that would have reduced his viral load..probably not.

By the time you finally figure out that you are going to be the one that has a hard time with covid it is often too late to do the things that might have helped.

And now omicron seems to evade the monoclonal treatment

I have to go to the dentist. I will be sticking a cvs pvp iodine swab up my nose as soon as i get out of that appointment..and gargling with mouthwash in the parking lot.

i just had my wife look at this and of course she’s said you’re not telling it right!

i got the baking soda and salt reversed. it’s three parts salt to 1 part baking soda. and not one but 1/2 teaspoon of that mixture per cup of water.

and she said she uses 2 and 1/2 teaspoons of the povidone, not two...

Looked up on TSC and they only carry the lower tier Ivermectin that wasn’t recommended and got a D and E rating for the Ivercare and Zimectrin from post 12 by Freeper: know.your.why. Price on TSC WAS $13 and $15 but if the quality is low then why bother.
