Friend of mine son died of pneumonia age 19 in 2014 in great shape no underlying issues.

Pneumonia can be fast

I have, yet another, dumb question:

Since covid’s been around awhile, why hasn’t an actual vaccine been developed using dead viruses (or however that works)?

“I don’t believe it. Young people don’t die from pneumonia so quickly. Pneumonia does not become life threatening so quickly.”

Pneumonia didn’t kill her. It was only a contributing factor.
A rare form of sepsis is what killed her.

Cool story. A Air Force trainee should be under sear constant supervision. She died in her room, not in a hospital. THAT is a complete failure of military leadership.

"Stop with the misinformation already."

You misinterpret what I said...
I did not say "covid was caused by a covid injection>.."

Someone who has been injected with the serum or boosters has a increased chance of death due to pneumonia or sudden heart failure due to the damage the vaccines and boosters do to ones immune system...
Check out the results of the hundreds of rest-home patients who checked out after the vax and catching flu or pneumonia...

One of my perfectly healthy grandsons, age 38, standing in the middle of a bunch of his friends, without warning instantly paid the ultimate price, 13 months ago...

Anyone who gets pneumonia and has recieved the vaccines is skating on thin ice...

Anyone who has been vaxxed and is otherwise perfectly healthy is also skating on thin ice...

There was no leadership failure ... because there was no leadership present.

Failing to run recall roster: I was shocked and then pissed off! She was lucky enough - no damage to her apartment, had water but no electricity. But the idea that in a military unit, no one ASKED if she was OK blew my mind. She received an email saying not to come to work until further notice due to roads. That was it.

No one checked to see if anyone wasn’t home or if they needed water or food or a place to sleep or baby diapers or a wife or kid in the hospital. Nothing. Obama and Biden have been in charge of the military for 12 of the last 16 years. It shows!

Glad not every military unit responded that way, but I also wondered who was asking, within 24 hours, for volunteers to help get things straightened out. No command in initiative in her unit. Hope others are better.

A nearby Baptist church had members whose freezers wouldn’t keep meat for long. They donated their meat, the church broke out grills, and offered free hot food to the folks nearby. Why wasn’t the military thinking like that?

Many were saying how rapid it was. Bottom line, Service Academy cadets getting found dead of an infection or disease *in their dorm room* is an inexcusable failure of that military unit.

Utterly inexcusable.

When I was in the best shape of my life in the Army in my mid-20’s; I got pneumonia. Hit me like a hammer in about a day. Went from fine, to bundled up and freezing in 80 degree weather, to so dehydrated they couldn’t give me an IV in the field. Shipped me back to base the next day and I was hospitalized for 2 days. Took me well over a month to recover.
It’s possible.

You are right, DR, about keeping closer tabs on cadets from a medical standpoint.

You know as well as anyone how historically, disease causes almost as many casualties as projectiles in war.

Don't believe these AF cadets are necessarily snowflakes, they are just 18-25 year olds, who have immature immune systems compared with older persons.

Plus, fall season, mixing up young people from all over, and confining them in small spaces and stressing them out is a good recipe for mini-epidemics. This is the meningitis season at colleges all over for much the same reasons.

I think I was drinking some contaminated water. My platoon SGT dumped it all and refilled with clean stuff to be sure.
