Just no. You guys are anti CDC, Mayo Clinic, WHO, and any independent study we could post and most hospitals (see other threads for which are real intensive care stats). You quote one off Twitter version of stats. It’s politicized nonsense. You guys are a tiny, loud group.There you go again with the disingenuous hyperbole so far divorced from reality it borders on outright lying. Numerous doctors and studies indicate the positive efficacy of ivermectin. While not definitive as yet and more study is needed to say there’s no data or doctors or facts from medical sources is 100% false. These things have been cited repeatedly, you just don’t agree with them.
Hell, at this point there’s more proof of the benefits of ivermectin than there is to show masks are effective at preventing or mitigating the spread of covid.
This was pretty good alsoI sincerely appreciate the concern many of you have for my health, insisting that I get the vaccine to avoid dying.
I am touched by your love.
You have such unique and moving ways to show you care.
I'm certain that many of you serve as motivational speakers.
Thank you.
However you can't help yourself and you feel compelled to add your pointless comments. I have a solution.It’s easier to just let them have their threads where they tell each other they are right and then pop in every now and then remind them they are weirdos. It’s the loud part of the board. Not the majority
I've tried to stay away from these discussions because I have a daughter refusing to take the vax but all I can say is I'd hate to be lying on the table with a tube down my throat knowing that a simple shot I didn't take may have prevented this. Watching someone die while they are unable to breathe is something you will never forget. Plus it may start costing folks money.
Most private insurers are no longer waiving cost-sharing for COVID-19 treatment - Peterson-KFF Health System Tracker
Federal law requires all private insurance plans to cover the entire cost associated with approved COVID-19 testing so long as the test is deemed medically appropriate. Additionally, the U.S. government pre-paid for COVID-19 vaccines and required COVID-19 vaccines be made available at no...www.healthsystemtracker.org

Yep. A doctor says the non doctors don’t know what they are talking about. Same thing as the rest. But we have these newly minted MDs on here to help us, so we are savedI have opinions but zero expertise. I did just read an outstanding interview with Ben Neuman who is Chief Virologist at our Global Health Research Complex. Definitely a credible source. I apologize if someone else has already posted this. https://www.houstonchronicle.com/ne...SJ6-CqzxGgDclgtsM0QxREZl9Y1djdGE9NSzb3nVHzBHs
It's in there nature to force their will upon others.Serious question for LSA and all the others pushing the vaccine so ardently.
Why do you want so badly for ME to get the vaccine?
I understand what your perceived benefits are for me if I get the vaccine. I may not get as sick and die.
- Many of you have a deep dislike for everything I believe, so in extension have a dislike for me.
- If YOU have had the vaccine #1, #2 and a booster, it doesn't keep YOU from getting COVID.
- If YOU have had the vaccines it doesn't keep you from transmitting COVID.
- IF I get the vaccine #1, #2 and a booster, it doesn't keep ME from getting COVID
- If I get the vaccine it doesn't prevent me from transmitting COVID to you.
What are the benefits for you if I do not get the vaccine? It won't eradicate the disease.
AGAIN - Why do you want so badly for ME to get the vaccine?
Anecdotally (because it's been pointed out numerous times on this board that anyone who decides not to get the vaccine is because they are relying on anecdotal evidence) every case of COVID is different. So in anecdotal reasoning (since I am not allowed to use facts), if I get the vaccine and then get COVID, IT MAY NOT BE AS BAD as it would have been if I did not get the vaccine but contracted COVID. But also, I may have only had a mild case anyway. No one knows. Anecdotally, of course.
So, other than the government and all the government sponsored agencies telling us that we must get vaccinated in order to defeat this pandemic, although the government's anecdotal evidence is contrary, why do you so desperately need ME to get this vaccine?
I seriously want to know.

There are varying degrees of efficacy of masks. While the solution should be to require the use of better masks (no gators or bandanas), many people suggest getting rid of them. They also seem to be the same people who insist on using the shittiest mask availableThere are doctors that say masks are mostly useless, mask mandates are definitely useless and young people are at low risk with Covid infections. Also, you don’t have to be a doctor to look at stats. You don’t have to be a doctor to use those stats to manage you’re own risk. I’m not against the vaccine but arguing from a position of authority in a bipolar way is something you’re accusing people of doing but doing yourself.

But here’s the thing there are thousands of doctors and researchers in the USA alone who have concerns about the potential long-term side effects of the vaccines, the manner in which they’ve been tested & rolled out, the efficacy of vaccines vs. natural immunity, the use or non-use of proven safe but off-label stuff like ivermectin, the use of masks (especially mandates), the lab-leak origin case, and a myriad of other issues with covid. Particularly in the communication with the legion examples of false or misleading statements. The perpetual flip-flops with no basis in data and on and on.
The verifiable examples of the CDC, WHO, both the Trump & Biden administrations, big tech/social media, Fauci, Hotez, politicians and media figures ignoring their own science, not adhering to their own rules, and basically pissing down our collective backs and swearing it’s rain have completely blown all credibility they might have had. They have nobody to blame for the lack of trust but themselves.
So tell me why it’s so absurd to listen to people who have all the expertise in the world and data behind them even when that data is counter to the approved narrative. Most of us on here are educated and intelligent enough to read studies and papers and dissect the statistics and know when we’ve been fed a load of bullshit.
Like I said, your insistence on clinging to the CDC & WHO as authoritative despite their documented and proven prevarications is fascinating.

If you posted this list, they would immediately get to work trying to discredit everyone on it. Politics have become the de facto religion for many people, and they treat it with the same zeal as a religious fundamentalist. Even having a conversation is unacceptable, because the almighty has already spoken.Unless you are willing to provide a list of the thousands of doctors and researchers in the USA alone who have concerns about the potential long-term side effects of the vaccines, along with their residential address where they may be visited and set straight, then you're just throwing out anecdotal evidence.
Quit pretending you are educated, intelligent, and capable of analyzing data on your own.

I use the word persuaded purposefully because I'm not any kind of expert. I'm open to data, all data. I'm afraid many are not because of their tribal conflicts surrounding this disease. In other words, I could be wrong. However...at this time I remain persuaded.I agree with much of what you said. Will you please provide links to what persuaded you that " ivermectin and hydroxychloroquine have theraputic roles in this battle"?
Thank you. I’ll watch/read, when I have some time. I appreciate you taking the time to provide the informationI use the word persuaded purposefully because I'm not any kind of expert.

I first became intrigued by Dr. Pierre Kory's testimony before the Senate Homeland Security & Governmental Affairs committee. His passionate support of ivermectin's efficacy was compelling to me. I'm linking his testimony through C-Span interestingly enough because Youtube censored the same testimony.
Dr. Kory
More recently, as of late July this year, data from Dehli shows a strong correlation in the reduction of both cases and deaths from Covid to the onset of including ivermectin's inclusion into the treatment protocol. I do understand the difference between correlation and causality, but I'm just supporting my opinion, not offering proof.
The correlation is obvious and undeniable.
As far as HCQ, my opinion has been influenced by Stephen M. Smith's ( Smith Center for Infectious Diseases & Urban Health, East Orange, New Jersey) study of covid patients on vents. HCQ/Zpak increased survivability by over 100%.
Stephen Smith
Then, of course, there was last year's study that was published in the International Journal of Infectious Diseases that showing a 290% survival improvement for patients receiving early treatment of HCQ/Zpak.

Bottom line is this is a global pandemic. There are places on this earth where plentiful vaccines or cutting edge therapeutics such as Regeneron or antibody infusions will never be available. These therapies can be made available at a much more acceptable cost and may (will) save many lives.
I think it's possible the more wide acceptance of these therapies were stunted by political bias and greed (pharma).
Thank you. I’ll watch/read, when I have some time. I appreciate you taking the time to provide the information
Maybe he is mean spirited and a racist.A large number of poison control calls are generated due to ingestion of common over-the-counter cough and cold medications that are recommended by the medical community.
Some poison control call are generated by ingestion of coffee.
Too much of anything may be harmful.
You are not allowed to ask questions to our health masters peasant. Science does not allow questionsOnly smart people do everything the medical community tells them to. That’s why we have the fattest country on earth and everyone is on antidepressants and metformin. If you disagree with any of it or step out of line you’re just a big weirdo. Remember when leftists were the ones that didn’t trust the establishment? What happened to y’all? You didn’t sell out. You bought in. We have a new god. The Science. By golly don’t question it or even think disparate things could help humanity.
Wow...this is a very interesting senate hearing about various covid medical treatments from the experts. Sadly the guys who are screaming about science will not watch this. I took the vaccine but we should be open to all promising treatments.
Amazing. Here is your sign.when you get through wondering, let us know what you conclude.
What about the FDA? Sure they are in on this too, right? Its not a conspiracy, just a secret club you guys have where you have better information than us. Makes sense. Totally rational. Of course a pandemic could be solved at Tractor Supply. How did I miss this?Considering the documented instances where CDC, WHO, etc have been caught outright lying and flip-flopping based on no data whatsoever I find your adherence to their positions fascinating.

You are not a horse. You are not a cow. Seriously, y'all. Stop it
Where is this info coming from? My kids had Covid in December and just had antibody tests and they still have high counts.Natural immunity has been shown to wear off much faster than the vaxx antibody rates and be next to worthless against the delta strain.
So that tweet from the FDA that appears to be written by someone's 13 year old daughter is supposed to be persuasive?What about the FDA? Sure they are in on this too, right?
