I never go anywhere either except out fishing or whatever by myself.

It has been a bit wet here too.

If only there was some sort of free vaccine available to everyone in the country that could prevent this.

Not sure if it would have helped the variant, srs.

Plus it isnt available yet to under 40 years old yet. Soon.

"Healthy" -- evidently not. PSA going to the gym =/= health. When I first started going to the gym I was muscled up and could barely run 1/4 of a mile without gasping for air. Health is a combination of factors that are difficult to judge without deeply intimate knowledge about a person. Preexisting conditions? Dietary habits? Inhereted genetic health issues? History of smoking? <--- just scratching the surface there.

Looking like we will all need regular boosters to stay on top of it just like the regular flu that has almost completely disappeared now.
The vaccines are effective against all the variants in the US, but their level of effectiveness varies. Agreed, this will become like the annual flu shot. Everyone is getting either COVID or the vaccine, and while COVID is rarely that dangerous for young healthy people, as your friends unfortunately demonstrate it still sometimes is, and regardless, the vaccine is safer than the virus in all age groups. And everyone is getting one or the other, hence the logical choice being the vaccine. Hundreds of millions have taken it. It's fine.

Correct. Vaccines don’t have any complications per the manufacturer. They did their own study and said it’s fine.

If it were me, I'd want my doctors to give me Ivermectin ASAP.

This. I visit photog forums and you'll hear stuff like "all 5 people I know had af motors die on their 85mm AF-S" and "none of my 13 lenses needed af fine tuning". I have no idea if people make chit up or they are idiots. Probably a little or A and a little of B.

Media doesn't help since extreme outliers attract attention so they push these "baby born with COVID!!1111" stories. Data journalism should be the future. Chit like covid deaths should be set in context of non-lockdown traffic deaths and normal year flu deaths. The Guardian has said our heath service has been maxed in flu season just about every year.

Doctors have been forbidden to prescribe Ivermectin unless it is to treat a parasitic infection.

Sad, because the testing of it in India among first responders/hospital staff saw an 83% reduction in number of staff becoming infected with covid.

Costs about $0.003 per kg/bodyweight, twice a month for full protection.

Billions of doses administered since the 1970's with no adverse effects.

Will never see the light of day here.

Not a CBC fan generally but they have a relatively simple breakdown on the method of action for each kind.

Funny you mention India, India wanted to test the J&J vaccine only to be pulled out by j&j asap when testing of it was mentioned. This vaccine is fuking people up, & don’t wait for those “long-term” studies. There won’t ever be a long term effects study, because Pfizer and Moderna both unblinded their studies after three months and offered the vaccine to the control group that had received the placebo. Double blind studies are the gold standard for establishing causation, and now we will never have that medium or long term data. So when they say, “There’s no evidence that mRNA vaccines cause [bad thing that vaccinated people are experiencing]” that’s why. They avoided the opportunity to create the evidence.

Best you can do is review the animal studies in which all animals tested either died within 6 months or suffered severe neurological issues. Obviously there is a latency between an animals immune system & ours.

They haven't been forbidden. It's just not recommended as one of the official Covid treatments by our health agency's (which is ridiculous). But doctors are still free to prescribe it off label for Covid. Some doctors may be hesitant (or outright refuse) but that's why you should print out the evidence and protocols (the web addresses I posted in my previous post) and give it to them. Or find another doctor if possible. There's actually been a number of court cases now where the doctor refused to prescribe it, and family members of the critically ill patient had a judge order the doctor to do so...and the patient got better.

This site's good for keeping up on recent developments:

Hmm so I mentioned Ivermectin in my first post, since that's what I've personally been most interested in, especially since it seems to be effective in not only reducing your chances of getting covid (if you take it shortly after being exposed to a covid positive person), but also in reducing your chances of deteriorating into a state of severe covid if you take it after you've already been infected.

But the more research I do, it looks like steroids (Methylprednisolone) are a critical component for people who are already at the point of severe disease. And according to this video featuring one of the main doctors behind the push for Ivermectin, it appears that many doctors aren't giving a high enough dose of steroids nor for a long enough period of time. I mean, really the whole MATH+ protocol is supposed to work synergistically, but I figured I'd mention the steroids since it's looks like many docs aren't giving nearly enough.

youtube.com/watch?v=JMeP66gdc4o

I haven't watched this one yet but I'm about to. Same topic (steroids and anticoagulants) but much longer.

youtube.com/watch?v=i6oQaoKfOaI

Here's the MATH+ protocol for anyone that missed it.
