Don't Get Sick in a Blue State
American Thinker ^ | 14 Feb, 2022 | Steve Feinstein

Posted on 02/14/2022 4:17:41 AM PST by MtnClimber

Two harrowing examples show the stark differences between COVID treatment in red and blue states.

There is no lack of stark contrast between the way conservative/red states and liberal/blue states have handled the COVID crisis over the past two years.

I live in Massachusetts, Land o' Warren, home to the biggest destructively phony RINO of all time, Governor Charlie Baker, surrounded by über-liberal Connecticut, Rhode Island, and Bernieland. It is CNN/MSNBC-style groupthink around here, to the point where the daily headlines and news stories seem like caricatures of themselves, as if no one could actually believe the stuff they're saying. But the vast majority of people here actually say it, and they truly believe it.

SNIP

Here are two striking examples:

1. "Beth D" (I am intentionally changing her name) contracted a severe case of COVID delta in the fall of 2021. She was virtually unable to breathe or function. Married with two young children, no local Massachusetts doctor or hospital would admit her or see her because she was unvaccinated. None. Let that sink in and register. "Get vaccinated" was their only response. Desperate to survive, Beth contacted an out-of-state rogue doctor who was willing to prescribe ivermectin and treat her with the full array of "unpolitically approved" medicines and methods. Beth recovered, after callously being left close to death by a Massachusetts medical system dominated by liberal ideology instead of sane, compassionate medical practices.

2. I am unvaccinated, having chosen to reject the vaccine for all the well known reasons. I am in my sixties, generally in excellent health, active and athletic, at pretty much my college weight. I also have a chronic auto-immune disease (multiple sclerosis), which can flare up quite badly from time to time, causing extreme muscle/leg weakness and temporary immobility.

‘I don’t know how the medical establishment got sucked into this. Did they forget how to think for themselves?’

the ‘medical establishment’ is in reality a cabal of non-practicing medicos focusing on research and development, and receiving funding from governments at various levels...as medicine is a continuous effort to expand treatments, anything that gets in the way of research, such as conflicting messaging on a hysterically promoted viral disease, needs to be quashed on the spot...

the medical community got ‘sucked’ into nothing; they played the game they themselves devised to perfection...

Boy, can I personally vouch for this one...
/\

Met too.

E.R. for chest pains.

Get vaxxed or go to Covid floor for overnight observations to protect others.

Asked them if putting an invaded person on Covid floor will help the Covid cases get better

They then left me in E.R. room and ignored the heart monitor when the irregular heart rythem alarm went off , every one just walked on by and ignored the alarm.

After 5 minutes of listening to that I unhooked myself and got out of there , my unvaxxed life had zero value to them.

Told them no

My wife got covid. She started feeling bad Christmas Eve. I had a 2 week climbing trip in SW Colorado the 2 week of Jan.
I decided not to go. I did not want to get sick in that state.
Didn’t matter. I came down with it Jan. 1.
No energy for climbing now.
We had not been shot up.
She got an infusion. I had ivermectin. We both survived OK.

My younger sister and her husband live in Colorado Springs.
She had a procedure done 2 years ago to correct run away heart beat.
She got covid. They told her she didn’t qualify for infusion.

I’m wondering if waiting a few more months is going to pay off.

There is too much evidence coming out now about the ineffectiveness and dangerous side effects of the so-called vaccines that they quit pushing them.
