I once saved a man’s life against his wishes. Refusals to get the COVID-19 vaccine reveal the costs of stressing patient autonomy

When I realized that they were sleep-depriving my wife who was recovering after coming out of a coma, I had to kick them and their minions out of her room for 48 hours.

They were waking her up for "tests" and meds every 4-6 hours in the "recovery unit".

She wasn't getting better, and I finally figured out why, because I've had experience [intentional, for research purposes] with sleep deprivation.

They were going to milk her gold-plated health insurance for all it was worth.

However, now the medical community..consensus... declares that essentially all eligible Americans should be vaccinated against COVID-19. Mandated universal vaccination would certainly cut the number of COVID-19 cases and deaths dramatically.

Just like in England and Israel, eh?

Besides, even *IF* this were true that vaxxes cut COVID deaths, , what about the deaths the vaxxes CAUSED?

Since COVID death totals have gone up this year, it seems that the vaxxes are causing more than it is preventing, and it's only been a few months.

Nobody knows what the record 3-5 years down the road is going to be.

Don’t forget the medical negligence of sending people home with NO treatment and telling them to not come back until their lips are turning blue.

That’s outright murder right there.

AND counting deaths as COVID deaths that aren’t. It’s also widely known they are jacking the numbers.

TPTB have given us NO reason to trust a thing they say about actual COVID deaths.

I have a mast cell disorder and have had no end of difficulty getting ANY action or assistance out of the medical community.

If it’s not something they can fix easily with a pill, like diabetes or high cholesterol, they don’t want to hear it, much less try to deal with it.

“Most doctors are biology majors that were good at memorizing stuff. Most of them are NOT scientists.”

Interesting that you’d say that. The surgeon who replaced one of my hips in CA — “surgeon to the stars” — said almost the same thing.

He had this humility thing going on and always said he was impressed by Hubby’s work as a physicist. “I just have to learn procedures and do them over and over again. You have to figure out difficult things every day.”

He was world renowned, and invented procedures, tools, and equipment for orthopedic surgery, so I don’t know why he’d be so self deprecating.

“I am livid and fed up with the medical community.”

Amen! to that. They have sold out. Where’s Marcus Welby who gives a s—t? Those days are long gone. It probably started in earnest with Medicare. The government was sticking their noses into everyone’s business. Also, it provided an opportunity for unscrupulous humans wearing white coats to pad their bank accounts by fraudulent billing.

Since WuFlu, it’s become much worse. Doctors are government agents first. Healthcare probably isn’t even second.

The guy's a faggot.

With nearly 700,000 U.S. deaths officially attributable to COVID-19

The January 6th velvet rope selfie-fest was officially an "insurrection".

There is nothing that "officials" say about this scamdemic that is true. Nothing.

An awfully ignorant doctor. I feel sorry for him and his patients

That last sentence seems to be about right.

It is mind boggling to me.

Some people are not persistant. They trust the Dr. Those people would have ended up with a lot of damage once the damage finally showed up in a basic test.

And for Seniors...Lord help them trying to deal with all of this and Medicare

When one DR said to me after a test...we will just wait and watch it.... I walked out of there cussing to myself saying you dont know who you are dealing with...there will be no waiting and seeing with me. “You’re fired”...Trump Apprentice Style before I got to my car.

On to the next Dr.

And I encourage people to look at the Muscular Dystrophy list of diseases (yours is not on it) and use them as Muscle to back you up. It has helped somewhat in getting through on one of the rare issues.

F** you, CF.

As to your horse, hope he throws you and you break your lower spine — not neck, that would make it quick.

Trot your data out. It can all be countered. As to consensus, the consensus had the sun revolving about the earth. On and on, bad positions staked out by blind idiots.

A long time ago when I still had cable there was a show called "Medical Mysteries" or some such. It detailed the lives of people who went for years, from one doctor to another until they finally found a competent doctor able to diagnose their problem.

Quite often the diagnosis eventually uncovered was a relatively common problem like a tumor or cancer.

I had a friend who was fed painkillers for months by a doctor before he finally got a second opinion and found out he had stage four cancer. The original doctor had never done any sort of scan, but just kept increasing the painkillers as the man's pain increased.

I advocate second opinions for everything.

Tom Hanks wife got a second opinion that showed she had breast cancer.

I still haven’t figured out how to get my hands on a sub- specialist when it comes to imagining reports within my network.

There are people who do it online but it is something I am definitely pursuing.

I had one surgeon who was looking at a CT scan that said it looks fine....and I said...BUT the report says ....

and he said...well they are looking at it with better graphics.

A pox on all the incompetent doctors.

He never followed up with the heroin user to see if he led a productive life, or rather if he murdered someone? It would make a difference in how he used this story as a lead-in.
