NYC ER Doc Breaks Down How Omicron Affects the Boosted, Vaxxed and Unvaccinated
WNBC ^ | 12/29/2021

Posted on 12/29/2021 1:20:10 PM PST by devane617

"Most patients I’ve seen that had 2 doses of Pfizer/Moderna still had ‘mild’ symptoms, but more than those who had received a third dose. More fatigued. More fever. More coughing. A little more miserable overall. But no shortness of breath. No difficulty breathing. Mostly fine," he said.

For those who just had the one shot of the J&J vaccine and never took a booster, the situation isn't as good.

"Most patients I’ve seen that had one dose of J&J and had Covid were worse overall. Felt horrible. Fever for a few days (or more). Weak, tired. Some shortness of breath and cough. But not one needing hospitalization. Not one needing oxygen. Not great. But not life-threatening," he tweeted.

And then there are the unvaccinated, who by all data are being hospitalized at a rate 15x or more the vaccinated.

"And almost every single patient that I’ve taken care of that needed to be admitted for Covid has been unvaccinated. Every one with profound shortness of breath. Every one whose oxygen dropped when they walked. Every one needing oxygen to breath regularly," he said.

Spencer's recommendations were straightforward -- get vaccinated if you haven't, get a second dose of something else if you've had one J&J shot, and if you're eligible, get a booster.

"And almost every single patient that I’ve taken care of that needed to be admitted for Covid has been unvaccinated. ... Every one needing oxygen to breath regularly," he said.

It can't be that bad, otherwise he would have mentioned the use of ventilators instead of supplemental oxygen.

Oh, look. A NY media outlet promoting the narrative they have decided to promote. Shocking.

That does not jive with the information being reported direct from Africa at all. And, to date, only a single death that I'm aware of has been reported for omicron. Profound shortness of breath ... but no uptick in death ... someone is telling lies again, NBC.

This unvaxxed individual with Omicron calls bs.

Omicron symptoms

Fatigue
Headache
Other body aches (including lower back pain)
Sore or “scratchy” throat
Runny nose
Sneezing

Exactly what I've had. Mostly one or two at a time. "

And almost every single patient that I’ve taken care of that needed to be admitted for Covid has been unvaccinated. Every one with profound shortness of breath. Every one whose oxygen dropped when they walked. Every one needing oxygen to breath regularly," he said.

Nope, Nope and Nope. Day before yesterday, I cut up some logs and split the wood. Couple of days before that, I cut those trees down and dragged them up by the house.

Mr. ER doesn’t see the ones that DON’T go to the ER.

Bingo!

Of course, we are neglecting the 99% of the unvaxxed who don’t go to the ER, who might have a more severe case of the sniffles at home. Now let’s do a similar exercise on the % of non vaxxed athletes who drop dead after having the vaxx. How about the total non Covid related deaths this year over last year. Where do the non vaxxed stand among those “unexplained” increases in people abruptly dying?

Same lies in Shitcago. Now the CV patients are being sent home if they got the booster. Trying to sell the lie that more vax is needed. Crook County is doing the “must be vaxxed” to do bars and restaurants starting Monday 03JAN. Teachers Union just agreed to more “remote learning” until the Omicron settles down.

Can’t fix stupid.

“So, totally different from how the same variant affected people in South Africa. Huh. Imagine that”

EXACTLY! Not JUST South Africa, but almost, if not, EVERYWHERE ELSE in the world!

BUT, we Americans are DIFFERENT. Especially those in NYC.

The number ONE rule.

DON’T GO TO THE HOSPITAL.

If you have COVID, they will kill you.

If you don’t have COVID, you will probably get it from just being there and then when you come back for treatment, they will kill you. /s (sort of)

So you have discounted the possibility that the Brennan gang released this virus in service to the globaklist oligarchy arranging the great reset? Propaganda works!

“Every one with profound shortness of breath. Every one whose oxygen dropped when they walked. Every one needing oxygen to breath regularly,” he said.”

and why?

to put it as Omar put it because “some people did something” = fauci china etc altered the virus to make it effect people worse- then allowed it out into the population and purposely spread it around the world and are still working to kill or harm more people by not allowing proper care.

At 72, with 6 co-morbidities, I’ve had 2 Pfizer shots on 3/6 & 3/27 and a booster on 10/2, but I’m not going to any ER.

I have a Rx med kit, with CHQ 50mg tablets, Ivermecting 12mg caps, Doxycycline 100mg caps, and Zinc 50mg caps. I’ll take my chances outside an ER.

Me neither!

Had the J&J and have been regretting it. I’m sure not going to get another shot to prevent something it looks like everyone survives.

The problems with the spike proteins clogging my body and the effects on heart and lungs not to mention questions about immunity to cancer being decimated are enough to stop me.

This whole roll out of disease, shots, media lying just never smelled right.

I can’t help the feeling that one particular group was left out. Perhaps that group did not show up at the hospital.

Right. We're being left out of every study, every report, every forecast.

Not allowed to even look into it....the obvious. China, of course, notices. If they dropped a bomb on us we’d retaliate. If they release a virus, they get away with it.

What’s next?

VACCINES DON’T STOP COVID HOSPITALIZATIONS OR DEATHS

They never have, even at peak effectiveness. A huge US database offers proof

https://alexberenson.substack.com/p/vaccines-dont-stop-covid-hospitalizations

Even at the peak of their protection earlier in 2021, Covid vaccines barely reduced the risk of hospitalizations in vaccinated people who had “breakthrough” infections, new data show.

Yep. Had it in January 2021. Plenty of antibodies in October. Hoping they will continue to protect me. That said, it getting a heavy viral load with comorbidities is nothing to fool around with.
