1. Unvaccinated: Indefensible

   capitalsfan83 replied to guest1168940's topic in COVID

   My whole point is: if we are pushing and mandating vaccines for COVID, because COVID puts other people at risk and strain on our health system. We should do the same with other diseases / conditions.

2. Unvaccinated: Indefensible

   capitalsfan83 replied to guest1168940's topic in COVID

   Our whole system is based on “sick care”. You’re fat? OK we have a pill for that! There is an interest but whatever is being done is obliviously not working. We keep getting bigger and fatter as a nation.

3. Unvaccinated: Indefensible

   capitalsfan83 replied to guest1168940's topic in COVID

   It’s the same concept. Sounds like your logic or critical thinking is absent. We are being told to get a vaccine to protect ourselves and those around us, correct? Same can be applied to HIV. I worked in HIV clinic and know that majority of HIV...

4. Unvaccinated: Indefensible

   capitalsfan83 replied to guest1168940's topic in COVID

   I get that. My whole point is that we are a country with certain freedoms. People should have a freedom to choose what they do with their body. You work in public health and probably deal with a lot of people that don't make good choices. Should we...

5. Unvaccinated: Indefensible

   capitalsfan83 replied to guest1168940's topic in COVID

   That was the best article with evidence based research you just shared. You should really be proud of yourself.

6. Unvaccinated: Indefensible

   capitalsfan83 replied to guest1168940's topic in COVID

   Using the same logic, if hybrid immunity is better and if vaccines are so effective then vaccinated shouldn’t be afraid of catching COVID because it will only help their immunity to be stronger. But that is not what I’m seeing. Why are most people o...

7. Unvaccinated: Indefensible

   capitalsfan83 replied to guest1168940's topic in COVID

   Little sheep keep repeating and regurgitating what you hear on CNN. "Unvaccinated are indefensible"? What about those with previous infection who have natural immunity? Study out of Cleveland Clinic confirmed that "Individuals who have had...

8. I'm Out... (Cue Mic Drop)

   capitalsfan83 replied to J.Adderton's topic in COVID

   If you read my post in context, you will see what I'm saying. My whole point was that vaccination alone is not going to help us stop this pandemic, there are more things that we can and should be doing.

   capitalsfan83 replied to J.Adderton's topic in COVID

   Am I missing something? I didn't exactly reply to your scientific paper with well defined parameters. Nursing scientist.

11. I'm Out... (Cue Mic Drop)

    capitalsfan83 replied to J.Adderton's topic in COVID

    Mainstream media, white house scientists and their followers seem to think that we can achieve a herd immunity for this virus. With more data coming out recently you can tell that it's not going to happen. There are a lot of reasons. 1. COV...

12. I'm Out... (Cue Mic Drop)

    capitalsfan83 replied to J.Adderton's topic in COVID

    I'm not at all surprised that half of our population doesn't want to be vaccinated. They simply don't trust our government and medical establishment. I remember when COVID vaccines were first developed our current Vice President said that she would n...

14. Resource for cancer basics?

    capitalsfan83 replied to Swellz's topic in Oncology

    Chemocare.com is a very good resource for drugs, we even print drug information sheets for our new patients from there as part of our education.

15. Losing my religion

    capitalsfan83 replied to jadelpn's topic in Spirituality

    I find it very interesting that the people who scream the loudest about "leaving your religion at home" don't think that there is anything wrong with speaking profane at work when patients can hear them, talking about their drinking binges, discussin...
