Actually the fact is, one shouldn’t need “prophylactic” or even real “treatment” - unless you are really sick or have something bad like COPD or obesity.

They’ve scared us so much that people think they need to take all these supplements….how long?

Most COVID can be treated like any flu. Treat the symptoms, be nice to yourself. No need for all this panic stock and usage of other chemicals.

Well Joe is going to send out 500 million tests..just think of all the positive tests???

That's what I thought when I heard that. And some people will test every day if they have the means.

My parents are high risk ... 99 (advanced heart failure) & 88 years old. IMO, they need to prophylact. We use Dr. Z’s protocol ... easy to do.

Understood

I’ve only been once ( for my broken hip). I’ve taken my daughter twice
( appendicitis and broken ankle)

I only go to the ER if it an emergency

What? As a patient, I’ve seen it. I’ve experienced it. The latest outrage was with my mother which ended in a yelling match that they were kicking us out.

Don’t tell me I can’t say anything unless I’m a doctor. BTW, which is included in my relations as well as a Hopkins COVID tech for a year.

True, but also, illegals flood emergency rooms for “free health care” too. I once went to one once after being sent there from a health center, for a particularly bad kidney stone, and had to wait 6 hours- by then it had passed to a point it no longer hurt so bad, and they sent me home after a quick exam and not treatment. I could stayed home and had the same “help” lol. (That particular stone took 56 hours of near steady pain to pass- then soon after one got stuck and needed medical intervention to get it out)

But point was, the emergency room was chockerblock full of folks who likely were using it as their own personal Healthcare system. I sat In a room for 6 hours before anyone even dropped in to see me. And from what I understand, that was mild compared to what some folks have to wait in inner cities

I can understand that and, better to use therapeutic rather than the shots. I’m still concerned about shots for elderly.

Why are the hospitals admitting people who have no symptoms???? Here’s how it should go:

“Hi I would like to come to the hospital I have COVID”

“Okay what are your symptoms?”

“I don’t have any”

“Then what the f*ck are you doing here?”

Part of it is because of this damn mandate…people have to test weekly if they don’t vax.

So yes, the “need” for tests never ends!

I got Covid yesterday. I woke up with a fever and a sore throat and took a rapid antigen screening test. Positive. I had chills (couldn’t get warm) and slept a lot yesterday and 10 hours last night. Today I feel better and can taste my coffee and oatmeal. Happy to now have natural immunity (but sorry I missed seeing my relatives on Christmas Day.)

You know this is it exposing a lot of people who have Munchhausen Syndrome.

“Oh help me! help me! I have COVID! Look at Me! Look at Me!”

A lot of us simply don’t like the new and approved Trump changing his tune so drastically from just a few months ago, when he was calling the boosters a money making scam. Other precedents we don’t like being set when experimental mRNA gene therapies posing as vaccines are suddenly declared the one stop solution:

- Suppression of discussion and application of natural treatments, or existing and safe medicines originally developed for other illnesses

- Medications being pushed to market before traditional trials (we are seeing that now with these new pills too)

- Manufacturers being given 100% immunity to adverse reactions and damage claims

- Inference that infinite booster injections are superior to natural immunity function

- The changing of official definitions, such as to the word vaccine

You may not agree, but moving the discussion forward to only being about mandates or not, ignores these other, more foundational concerns.

Make the sniveling bastards wait…and wait…in the ER until they get tired of waiting and go home.

Good strategy—if you make them line up outside in the cold...

Of course then they would really get sick!

Inoculations (which the mRNA is) is not a vaccine

If you would dump Trump because he had a hand in making the inoculations available is certainly your right. Enjoy what the dems give you

All I suggested was that you speak about your doc

You can say what you want. My experience with health care professionals is far different than yours. They have a job to do according to local protocols. Their license and livelihood depends on it. The health care professionals I know are very compassionate. Families of sick patients demand many times unreasonable things

If they’re not sick, why are they even testing themselves?

These people are not sick at all, so they should go about their business and avoid emergency rooms.
