That sort of proves it really isn't a vaccine at all. Cheers! Every news agent proclaims that even with double dose, people who still get the virus and get sick may not die.................KIND OF LIKE 99.9% of people who got the virus.<br /><br />The media and the fools focus on the sickness and not on the actual death from that particular disease.<br /><br />HMS Defianthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10024721130102173694noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19305198.post-3400557117966353212021-10-13T17:15:00.897-04:002021-10-13T17:15:00.897-04:00I don't recall ever advocating Ivermectin as a...I don't recall ever advocating Ivermectin as a proven cure. I thought it was interesting when I first read about it, and waited to see if it would pan out, just as I did with HCQ. It seemed to be one of those drugs with a very, very low downside, so that it could be tried and studied, with and without scientific rigor, without causing noticeable harm. The hysterical reaction was shocking and discouraging, just as it was with HCQ.<br /><br />Even if Ivermectin were a dangerous drug, I despise the notion of squelching public discussion of its efficacy. The conflation of a preference for uncensored debate with an unreasoning belief in a drug's efficacy is extremely discouraging and a very bad sign of where we're headed. This is another social "cure" we're being threatened with that's anti-Hippocratic, i.e., worse than the disease.Texan99https://www.blogger.com/profile/10479561573903660086noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19305198.post-73053559804507256912021-10-13T14:57:07.611-04:002021-10-13T14:57:07.611-04:00Beer maker's guild; Drinking six beers a day ...<br />Beer maker's guild; Drinking six beers a day keeps COVID away.<br /><br />Whiskey maker's guild; Wrong, drinking three shots of whiskey a day keeps COVID away. <br /><br />A short version of below. TL:DR?<br /><br />This will be my last comment about this particular subject. (Everyone whistling, jumping up and down and clapping their hands.)<br /><br />Wednesday, October 13, 2021<br />1:44 PM<br /><br />Here's some interesting news.<br /><br />https://medicaltrend.org/2021/10/10/taiwan-death-from-covid-19-vaccination-exceeds-death-from-covid-19/<br /><br />I abandoned the "time suck" of Twitter a couple of years ago so I can't access those links.<br /><br />I happen to take a daily pill of low dose aspirin every day, by doctor recommendation.<br /><br />https://www.jpost.com/health-and-wellness/aspirin-lowers-risk-of-covid-new-findings-support-preliminary-israeli-trial-681127<br /><br />But then in other news, all the major MSM news organizations are reporting on the US Preventative Services task force saying that people over 60 shouldn't just arbitrarily start a low dose aspirin regime;<br /><br />"The latest evidence is clear: starting a daily aspirin regimen in people who are 60 or older to prevent a first heart attack or stroke is not recommended," Task Force member Dr. Chien-Wen Tseng said in a statement. "However, this Task Force recommendation is not for people already taking aspirin for a previous heart attack or stroke; they should continue to do so unless told otherwise by their clinician."<br /><br />https://www.webmd.com/lung/news/20210315/low-dose-aspirin-may-help-shield-you-from-covid-19<br /><br />Reading this article, it seems to agree that low dose aspirin helps with symptoms of COVID, but at the same time says that these are just hypotheses and there could be other factors involved, such as other medications taken at the same time, following physician advice more closely and maintaining social distancing.<br /><br />In conclusion, it's getting hard to know who to believe. Every study that comes out touting " off-label" use of some inexpensive medication for the mitigation of COVID symptoms, there is a corresponding study out saying the other study is full of shit.<br /><br />Both sides touting their side of the equation are MDs or Epidemiologists. One side recommends treatments that cost less than a dollar a pill and the other side recommends treatments that cost hundreds to thousands of dollars per treatment. <br /><br />Follow the money?<br />Mike Guentherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13760305520055214986noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19305198.post-90251205081587733522021-10-13T14:26:06.010-04:002021-10-13T14:26:06.010-04:00Beer and axe heads are two of my favorite things. ...Beer and axe heads are two of my favorite things.
