No, they just don’t want to be put in unnecessary lockdown, panic and needless decisions bringing the economy to it’s knees based on knee jerk reactions of politician in densely populated, urban areas...

[exDemMom]

What sort of doctor would use the phrase “Holy Shit” in his dialogue? He must be a real cool guy. And stuff.

Despite their professional comportment with patients, doctors do use such language in informal settings.

That said, I probably would have stuck with "Holy cow!"

. I was like, Holy shit, this is not the flu..

KEEP IT CLASSY WITH YOUR THREADS...busterdog!! :)

I curse a few dozen times a day out loud...that’s my business..but zero times on this board.

Only to see you post trash with trash words in it.

I’m glad Jim has standards for the board...moral standards are what sets us apart from liberals...

And no riri, it doesn’t belong under “just a flu” threads..it belongs under “Crass garbage” :)

Total dreck monger.

[dp0622]

No the person’s a pig.

I curse a lot alone.

Not here and not around women.

A pig is a pig is a pig.

[dp0622]

Yeah classy thread by a classy poster :)

“I ultimately believe we will need an aggressive treatment regimen for this disease verses trying to lock down the country for months.”

I agree.

Cytokine storm.
***********************
This patient’s doctors apparently negligently FAILED TO TREAT him with the 6-day Hydroxychloroquine and Azithromycin drug course. These meds counter both the Chinese Coronavirus itself but also help prevent a cytokine storm situation.

[Gay State Conservative]

No physician affiliated with the Harvard Medical School teaching hospital for which I worked ever talked like that. But I can easily imagine a doctor at Guadalajara General Hospital doing so.

[FreeReign]

Cytokine storm.

The same thing happens with psoriasis on the skin.

I would bet if you are susceptible to it on your skin, you are also susceptible to it in the lungs.

Doctors really do not speak much differently than other people when they are off the job. Really. I am a doctor, I know.

OH LOOK! IT IS A HOCKEY STICK! it is TEOTWAWKI.

He did that space force drama right after Trump made it news which is not coincidence. He has more than a million subscribers so he has no trouble with money . but writing this Same crap about killer Bigfoot every week will take it’s toll.

[max americana]

I thought the next line was “ holy sh&t an alien burst out his lungs! Dude this corona virus is the worst ive seen”

[Mr Ramsbotham]

That's one case, and who knows what co-morbidities were involved? The patient might have been an AIDS victim on his last legs, or a cancer patient on an extreme chemotherapy regimen. Nothing can be predicated on it.

Notice too the extreme verbiage, trying to wring an emotional response from the audience.

[cuban leaf]

Not as effective as this virus is at getting people sick.

---

They probably wish it was. :)

And don’t worry, most people don’t really get all that sick from it. You’ll probably be fine. I’d worry more about falling in the shower. Or committing suicide (especially if you are an acquaintence of hillary).

This video describes the three things doctors can do to reduce the odds of the potential 6% needing ventilators/respirators from dying.

In fact, these reduce the likelihood down to only 15% of those on ICU respirators dying. That is under 1% total deaths from COVID, then.
