Fucking genius. All of you.

mrussel1 said:Let's recap. You said we should have worked on treatment before vaccine (since apparently the nation's drug researchers can only do one thing at a time), I gave you a prime example where treatment came first. Now your bar is that they should have had "at home" treatments before vaccines. To boot, there was another treatment that was released as well, Regeneren, for severe cases. There may even have been more, but I'm not going to keep arguing with someone who invents numbers and moves the bar, in order to make some argument that doesn't make any sense.
1. You said imagine there was a 1% death rate for vaccines. You literally made up that number. The real number of adverse reaction (not death) is basis points of your imaginary number.
2. You used their financial disclosure statements as "evidence" which is silliness
3. You said we should have worked on treatment first. We did.
4. You said, well that wasn't approved for home use. That's called moving the goal posts.
Remember when I asked you if your arguments were a joke? I didn't mean like "haha, that's funny".

mrussel1 said:That's a great story. Along the same line, I keep an extra pair of socks in my golf bag in case I have an emergency #2 pooping situation. I can use my sock and have a backup to wear.
But again, this is where the Big Sock lobbyists try to infiltrate all parts of your life
A wise decision!

Evel K said:I've already addressed 1 and 2 but your rebuttals in 3 and 4 are weak at best. If you don't see the correlation between suppression of treatment and getting vaccines in arms than that's on you. I'm not trying to change anyone's mind. I'm here to have discussions. I'm open to opposing views and learning as I go. You used remdesivir as an example. I looked into it and showed you how that treatment was suppressed. Home use? Really? You go to the doctor, get a prescription, take it and hopefully you get better. Again, I'll emphasize this for people in the back. If remdesivir was readily available with a prescription in July of 2020 you would have had fewer people getting vaccinated.
I'm not a doctor so I'm not going to pretend my word is gospel on this, but I have read as well as have friends in the medical profession who have told me that drugs like Remdesivir and Paxlovid are not recommended for everyone who gets COVID and that getting vaccinated is the best way to at least reduce the severity of COVID (evident by the greatly decreased cases of morbid COVID) and reduce the likelihood of getting the disease.
But you may think what I'm saying is a bunch of crap and totally disagree. That's a matter of choice. Some of us have chosen to get vaccinated. Why not just let that be? Why the need for this anti-vax crusade in the first place? Are you trying to save us, or do you just need to be "right"? Wouldn't it be much simpler just to accept that we all deal with this in whatever manner we think is best? Personally, I don't care if someone is anti-vax as long as they stay away from me. Problem solved.

mrussel1 said:So to recap again, you think that remdesivir should have been created, tested, approved for general use, with enough manufactured for the millions with Covid by July 2020 for a disease that we didn't know existed until late March 2020. Got it. I guess I misunderstood your totally reasonable expectations.

GlowGirl said:Yes. Moving around on long flights is a necessity. They say you should get up and walk every hour or two. I have never tried compression socks on a flight but they say that works as well to help prevent blood clots.
I just drink enough to make sure my blood is good and thin.

Evel K said:COVID-19 CO=Corona VI=Virus D=Disease and 19= 2019. Remdesivir was created in 2009. As I said, I'm learning as I go, the reason it was only available in hospitals is because it was IV only at that time.

Evel K said:Two shots no boosters. Am I considered vaccinated? Probably not. It's not a crusade or a need to be right, I just think about it quite a bit and that's my reason for joining the discussion. I see how the 1% hypothetical comes off as fear mongering and anti-vax but that's what was weighing on my mind. I also have a 15 year old son who had two shots and when I read about the rare instances of myocarditis it scared the hell out of me.Post edited by mrussel1 on0

Had Covid lat week. It was very light overall, just fatigue and a cough.
