My thoughts are with you. My sister was an ER nurse for 20 years and just quit because of all the ignorant people and family members. Just because you have an iPhone, Instagram, and Facebook. It doesn't make you an expert.Quote:

Well it is still pretty widely varied on if/when a booster is most effective, least that's what a lot of CDC and who folk are stating. Think a bunch of em recently quit, both FDA and CDC.Quote:

You know what’s for sure not helping? Your hero complex and your personal attacks, your talking down and insulting anyone whom with you don't agree with 100%
Further-> If you want to change minds being a rude asshole is about the worst way to go about it. Pot meet kettle.
Yep, it's the frontline EMS and healthcare workers that are getting screwed most here now... They didn't sign up for so much TOTALLY AVOIDABLE carnage. They stepped up and risked their lives for all of us BEFORE we could protect ourselves with vaccines and better masks being available. The crush of avoidable tragedy must be exhausting and maddening. My friend's daughter is an ER nurse in Dallas. She's legit depressed and barely hanging on.
People can have bad ideas and be open to change/knowledge. But that window closes when insults are thrown.
I don’t see how this changes. Too much anger between the sides to efficiently communicate.
Its sad it got here. These people are so dug in on their refusal that “it will all be fine if everyone gets vaccinated” starting to sound a lot like “gun violence won’t exist if we take all the guns”
what do the epidemiologists say ?
Psychologists
Can we stop with trying to compare pandemic response and vaccine acceptance to gun violence? Thanks.
Can we still compare Covid deaths to Fentynal OD's ?
The comparison is that a large group of people won’t voluntarily do either.
No. That’s a bad comparison.Quote:

So, pretty much every young adult and/or felons are easily arming themselves in spite of the laws thanks to you good guys/gals who followed them but are dumb and paranoid enough to leave a gun in your car all the time.
There's one who's a friend of mine who I believe used to post here eons ago. I get most of my solid info from him and place that far above everything else I hear or read elsewhere.Quote:

What I probably should have said is what do the epidemiologists say about alternative treatments and dumb ass whataboutisms ?
Alt. treatments and whatsboutism?
Gaslight much?
👎
Nothing you, I or anyone else posts here is really going to change much. I’m just pointing out that you’re a disingenuous asshole like others here have done. It’s not a hero complex, I’m just getting tired of the bs and losing my empathy. It’s conflicting and we’ve been talking a lot about this at the hospital. I hope things get better because we’re running out of fucks to give when it comes to the unvaccinated. It’s a collective insanity and I’m not sure I see a way through this.Quote:

You and I see eye to eye on most things covid. We should be building on the agreements and discussing the few details of disagreement.
Instead its personal attacks and labels furthering the division.
I would greatly appreciate it if he was not quoted.Quote:

I share your concern for the future, like I share LSL's concern about the potential (long-term 'Injury' ) from covid -
to my reading, it took six years to move past the Influenza pandemic of 1918 -
given how much more widely people travel the world today, and the difficulty 'delivering' vaccine world-wide,
I don't see this being resolved in less time. ...
I was going to go on, but
the purpose of this post is to thank you, -Unicorn, for the work that you and your contemporaries delivering Medical Care are doing for people throughout the country and the world ! !
wishing all
a Good Labor day holiday... !

do the mRNA vaccinations work against whataboutisms?

Or that you don’t have a fuckton of chickens coming home to roost…?
Suck it up buttercup, you’ve earned every bit of the attention
You want to participate again in good faith? Fine, but you’re going to have to silently deal with a bunch of shit before you see daylight again
Your reception is a reflection of the hole you dug for yourself.
If you can’t own & accept that (& realize it’s not going anywhere overnight), you’re going to continue to have a hard time here
Or you can pretend it’s partisanship… 🤷🏽
No but COVID does in extreme cases..Quote:

Best to just put on ignore - he can read posts and learn the basics of covid without cunting up this valuable thread with the games he’s been playing for 7+ years.
He’s already starting to turn this thread into his own personal pity party - and mags who may be unaware of his troll status are unfortunately playing along.
Please ignore.
I didn’t cast the first stone. I was just better at throwing them.Quote:
