NYC ER Doc Breaks Down How Omicron Affects the Boosted, Vaxxed and Unvaccinated
NBC (New York) ^ | December 27, 2021

Posted on 12/29/2021 7:50:49 PM PST by BeauBo

Craig Spencer, a Manhattan ER doctor affiliated with Columbia University who became a Twitter superstar in the early days of the pandemic for his running commentary on the battle against the virus, tweeted a detailed breakdown late Sunday of what omicron cases look like.

"Every patient I’ve seen with Covid that’s had a 3rd ‘booster’ dose has had mild symptoms. By mild I mean mostly sore throat...

"And almost every single patient that I’ve taken care of that needed to be admitted for Covid has been unvaccinated."

Bad and deceitful post. There is a vaccine for polio. There is no vaccine for the whuflu ... yet.

That is my point!

“Still can’t get over a heavy cough!”

could be post-infection inflammation ... he could try a 10 day (not 5-day) zith course ... zith is a powerful pulmonary anti-inflammatory and it won’t hurt him ...

This goes against the information that I am reading from people’s personal experiences on the many forums that I visit. In fact just the opposite is true.

The “Cliff’s Notes” from Dr. Peter McCullough (on with Joe Rogan):

https://podcastnotes.org/joe-rogan-experience/1747-dr-peter-a-mccullough-joe-rogan-experience/

Key Takeaways

o We are not attempting to treat COVID-19 at home to prevent hospitalizations and deaths as an outcome

o Early treatment of COVID-19 is the key to survival because you take the edge off viral replication, reduce inflammation, and prevent thrombosis

o 50-85% of COVID-19 deaths could have been avoided if we adopted early treatment

o “The 800,000 deaths we have right now, I can tell you to a one they’ve received either no or inadequate early treatment.” – Dr. Peter A. McCullough

o “We’ve had a giant loss of life…It seems to me early on there was an intentional, very comprehensive suppression of treatment in order to promote fear, suffering, isolation, hospitalization, and death. It seemed to be completely organized and intentional in order to create acceptance for and promote mass vaccination.” – Dr. Peter A. McCullough

o If this was just about COVID (instead of power) we would’ve seen four pillars to the response: reduce the spread of infection, early treatment, improvement of hospital treatments with monthly updates from officials, vaccination (it has a role but not the silver bullet)

o Reputable hospitals (e.g., Harvard) STILL do not have COVID-19 treatment protocols

o Vaccines are a piece of the puzzle but are not treatment

o While most people are going to be fine, the vaccine has caused death and adverse outcomes in organ systems for a large number of people with higher susceptibility

o A young boy is more likely to be hospitalized of myocarditis post-vaccination than ever be hospitalized from COVID-19 respiratory illness

o We are not transparent on vaccines: we should be regularly reviewing safety, revisiting efficacy, and creating a profile of who it is or isn’t recommended for

o COVID-19 false narratives: asymptomatic spread & testing, you can get COVID repeatedly, take a vaccine every 6 months, you should still wear a mask if you had and recovered from COVID, vaccines are fully FDA approved

o A person is not science! Science is ever-changing and evolves with better and more well-informed data

o The idea that people in positions of authority are presenting information without a fair balance of risk versus benefit is a dangerous precedent

Here’s how to tell the difference between flu, common cold and COVID-19
https://abc7chicago.com/coronavirus-symptoms-vs-cold-covid-testing-the-flu-omicron/11403538/

“After a year off, flu cases, which have similar symptoms to the common cold and COVID-19, are seeing the largest increase this season in the eastern and central parts of the country, according to the Centers for Disease Control’s Weekly Influenza Surveillance Report.

“But how can you tell the difference between the flu, common cold and COVID-19?

“Doctors admit it’s confusing. [!] Symptoms are similar: body aches, fever, chills, feeling fatigued, congestion, coughing and sneezing.

“”There’s no way to know whether somebody has a cold, the flu, COVID without a test,” said Dr. Allison Arwady of the Chicago Department of Public Health.”

“My brother a farmer in Minnesota who lives 11 miles from a
Town of 7500. Fully vaccinated and now has Covid! Went to hospital
And no antibodies. Had to drive 60 miles to get them! Still can’t get over a heavy cough!”
************************************************************************

I’m glad your brother was persistent in getting the monoclonal antibodies. Let him be an example for FReepers to follow if faced with similar circumstances.

What does she think about the 99% of omnicon sufferers who don’t go to the ER, who are home with elevated levels of the sniffles?

Check out what killed Natalie Cole…it’s the same thing Dr Malone has been warning about and the doctors knew years in advance what the outcome would be.

Funny that this medical “expert” didn’t even mention the over 146,000,000 Americans who have survived Covid and are therefore immune. Weird, huh?
