Agree with this. Many of us believe that once you're on a vent, it's over.

I know 0 people that would to be hospital for a flu pre 2020

I know 100% of people that would now go to hospital for flu-like symptoms

Brb covid positive, brb fever from literally any other source, brb go hospital, brb 'hospitalized:

You see how that can skew the stats, boyo?

You're much more likely to be hospitalized from Influenza under 65 years old than you are Covid

Hospitals are slammed with Influenza patients every winter because it's generally a more symptomatic infection due to the fact that it mutates it's antigen proteins every 6 months(meaning no real immunity)



The difference is Influenza can't be used for fear mongering anymore so you never hear about what I just said; Covid is the new fear porn on MSM

The guy was in the air force reserve so I wonder if they mandated him to get vaxxed...
You know that's funny cuz I just did a 45ft cliff jump in Maui a few months ago.

Were hospitals nearly as incentivized for flu deaths as they were for covid deaths? Might have your answer there.

RIP, whatever it is that ended up killing him. I have a close friend who lost his dad, and some other acquaintances who lost family members. I probably see it more than most, being in the NJ/NY area and in healthcare. My 74 year old dad with asthma & a heart condition (stent/pacemaker) still works in NYC as a pharmacist. I worry about him every day. Politics aside, it’s a rough time for a lot of people.

Your coworker was dead the moment they put him on the Vent. Literally should be the last ditch (like they 100% know they will die without it) effort after Monoclonal Antibody Treatment, plus other antivirals and Ivermectin

Did it ever occur to you that's because we have an Influenza vaccine every 8 months with 75% efficacy preventing 50% of hospitalizations


Influenza is more dangerous symptomatically to people under 65 but it's not as contagious as Covid; we have no effective vaccines for Covid yet

RIP

A bunch of my coworkers are out due Covid too.

One of my closest coworkers told me she's been having a chest congestion and a fever, an then her 1 year old daughter also got Covid too, which saddens me.

Work has been closed until January 3rd.

Every 8 months?! Did they do that to maximize profits?

My 61 years old uncle had Covid early last year and he was shortly on a ventilator. I guess he was lucky. Although he'd been having all sorts of complications and side effects after Covid.

I've always told misc to avoid ventilators at all costs. Srs. There is a magnitude of reasons. They'll give you a guaranteed trachyostomy after a week, they will have you in a drug induced coma being looked after by nurses who aren't intensive care trained, they will work together to cover up killing you by accident/on purpose if they want extra cash for doing some organ transplants. One of the very few times I'll be serious with misc brahs. I've worked in this industry for 13 years. I've seen sh!t

Yea make sure to vet people that comes into your home. My nephew had covid, came over from Christmas for only an hour and got the entire house sick.

Its super contagious. Honestly I don't know why they are lifting the mask mandate. That's just something we are going to have to live with from now on.

So when a Covid patient can't breathe because the lungs are compromised and the air pockets are fkd, then what is being suggested as an alternative to the ventilator?

Remember shortness of breath and super low blood oxygen....


A stubborn friend in Poland went to the hospital with an O2 reading of 32.
