I’ve heard that “Body cleanup on aisle 10!” is a frequent announcement over the intercom at Safeway since they started giving Covid-19 shots.
That’s the one. Thank you.
I suspect this is a case of Post Hoc Ergo Propter Hoc - someone had the shot then subsequently died, therefore …
We’ve got proponents like that too:
“The Australian government’s Therapeutic Goods Administration report confirms 210 deaths and 24,000 adverse reactions after the COVID-19 vaccines. There are over 5000 deaths in the USA attributed to COVID vaccines including Pfizer,” Mr Palmer’s letter says.
"Mr Palmer last week sent letters to households across the nation claiming the Therapeutic Goods Administration and the government are spreading “misleading information designed to create fear in the population”.
Irony meters are exploding all across Oz.
New hero for the dumbass contingent, Jeffrey Horak. He’s a Minnesota surgeon who addressed the Fergus Falls school board, denouncing a student mask mandate. You see, the school board has no right to do this.
“Who does God put in charge of these kids? Their parents. God gave each one of these kids… to their parents and they speak for them.” - Jeffrey Horak
“The government doesn’t own your children, parents own the children.” - Sen. Rand Paul
Horak was dismissed by his medical group board 9 days later and is now a martyr.
It’s been reported that aside from opposing the school mask mandate, Horak didn’t always wear a mask (presumably in violation of guidelines, hopefully not during surgery) and he thinks he might have gotten in trouble due to making a comment before the school board about monkeys tying knots, which someone might, um, have misconstrued as racist.
Hence my reply (as a public school teacher):
Then keep them home and teach them yourself.
What does simian matrimony have to do with all this?
Last week, my spouse had to go to urgent care due to breathing problems from her Covid infection. On the way home, she had to stop for gas in order to make it back home.* The attendant had his mask under his chin. She said, “You’ll want to pull that up, I have Covid.”
She said he pulled his mask up quickly and took a big step backwards. So, I guess he does believe in wearing masks and distancing after all?
*She would not have stopped if she could have avoided it.
It may have been a reference to surgical skills.
New Jersey or Oregon?
I want to call out the covidiots at my granddaughter’s school. She is only 9 years old. They don’t enforce the mask mandate because there ISN"T ONE. Guess who brought Covid home? Yes, granddaughter caught it and gave it to her immunocompromised mother, my Daughter-in-law, who didn’t get the shot. Granddaughter is doing ok now, just coughing some. It was worse earlier.
DIL’s a bit of a covidiot, too, for not getting vaccinated - but her doctor told her not to because she would have had to get off her medication for rheumatoid arthritis. She is having different symptoms than the usual. She had the upper respiratory issues, but that’s mostly gone. She is now dealing with a very bad smell, and uncontrollable vomiting. She has some anti-nausea meds which help some.
The poor thing can’t eat or hardly drink, and has been to the ER at least twice to get fluids for dehydration. My son who is vaccinated likely has breakthrough symptoms, too. And he has no sick time from his job!
AAARRRGHHH! I am mad on so many levels. For those of you who don’t know, we live in Texas, home of the country’s stupidest governor.
Is that what her doctor actually said, or what she heard? I get that the vaccine would have reduced effectiveness due to the RA medications, but am unaware of any side effects. Since RA can cause issues with lung function, I’d much rather have a less effective CoVID vaccine than CoVID itself. Seems like extremely dangerous advice for a doctor to give, unless there is something I’m not aware of.
Who knows? She’s a bit of a ditz, and a drama queen, and I can’t tell her what to do in any case. I kept telling her she should get the vaccine all along.
It’s the same logic that Trump used when disbanding the pandemic response team. “If I get sick, then I’ll get a shot” is essentially the same line of thinking as “If there’s a pandemic, then I’ll put the team back together.”
Please tell me she got monoclonal antibody treatment. She is the ideal candidate, high risk but not hospitalized. If she has had symptoms for less than 10 days she should get it ASAP.
I asked, and she said “they said no, because they don’t know when it started.” I tried to push it… you don’t understand how difficult it can be to communicate with her. She has extreme anxiety issues that don’t help the situation either.
A peek at who most of the covidiots are (no surprises here):
There’s a new candidate for the Pathologist Hall of Shame - Dr. Ryan Cole.
Cole, who has prescribed ivermectin for patients (it is uncommon and potentially inappropriate for pathologists to prescribe drugs) and denounced Covid-19 vaccines as “kill shots”, is claiming a huge rise in cancer diagnoses due to vaccination, including a 20X increase in endometrial cancer. How Cole could possibly know these patients’ vaccination status is a mystery, since such information is never provided by clinicians in my and other pathologists’ experience. If his endometrial cancer diagnoses have actually jumped that markedly, it might be a good idea to have them reviewed by expert colleagues.
Cole also occupies the only physician seat on a regional health board.
Thankfully, other physicians have filed a complaint about Cole to the state medical board. We’ll see if they have the cojones to do something about his activities.
The only thing they need to determine before he is struck off the rolls and can no longer practice medicine is:
“Did you lie about this “increase” in cancer, or are you just stupid?”
