Valid Reasons To Not Get Vaccinated
After seeing people in my city yesterday waiting outside for JFK Jr to appear so that he could become Vice President to a reinstated President Trump, nothing would surprise me. The stupidity, the gullibility, etc. should be mind blowing, but sadly, it's just another day in the US. In case you are wondering, he didn't show. Rumor had it that he would instead come onstage during the Rolling Stones concert. Also didn't happen. I'm sure the goalposts have been moved and his re-entry to society will begin shortly.

Vaccination Mandating
Interesting how you deliberately omitted the fact that these conditions are far more likely to occur, and more severely, with actual Covid infection. And there is a laundry list of additional severe sequelae, many of longstanding duration, that occur in Covid infection that are not seen in association with the vaccine. Pretty inconvenient truths, apparently.

Pregnancy after COVID vaccine?
Update on my relative: She has doubled down on the anti-vax rhetoric, even viciously berating her diabetic mother for getting the vaccine.

Covid Abuse!
I'm from Texas, and there are many millions of us who are trying to elect sane and compassionate leaders. We came very close to electing Beto over Cruz (and how I rue the day we fell short). Our biggest cities lean blue. In other words, don't send us all the idiots. We have more than we can handle right now, but we are not all idiots, not by a long shot.

Ditto, and I have Adblock.

Pregnancy after COVID vaccine?
I truly doubt she will get vaccinated-now that she has had Covid, she will be saying how natural immunity will protect her. But you are right about the guilt-after she has a while to process it and work her way through her heartbreak, she probably will conclude that it was all just a coincidence. Some people are not capable of admitting being wrong about the smallest of things, much less the big ones. That kind of attitude has become much more ubiquitous in the last 4 or 5 years, at least in a certain demographic.

He was probably mentally ill, but the propaganda may have directed his violence toward his brother rather than to self harm or other target. Tragic.

Pregnancy after COVID vaccine?
A relative of mine is anti vax. She gives anyone in her sphere major grief if they choose to get vaccinated. She refuses to wear a mask, refuses to social distance, refuses to take any kind of mitigation measures whatsoever. You might guess that she is also a rabid MAGA adherent, and you would be right. She recently got Covid while about 20 weeks pregnant, mild symptoms only. A week or so into her infection, her baby died in utero. The sad end to her pregnancy likely had nothing to do with Covid. Might have happened anyway, as has happened with many other pregnancies. She might have gotten the vaccine and still gotten a breakthrough infection. But I have to think she will probably go to her grave wondering if Covid was what brought about the death of her developing child. And will she wonder if she could have done anything to prevent it? Or will she double down on her insistence that Covid is just one big hoax?

The nurse gave a vaccine without the patient's consent? Not impossible, but seems pretty unlikely. I'd be interested in the nurse's version of the events.

Nurses Promoting COVID Misinformation
This nurse in a labor delivery unit was not an anti-vaxxer, and I'm not aware that she spread any misinformation whatsoever. But she may well have been a victim of it. Even though the vaccine is recommended for pregnant women, she was too afraid to get it. She got Covid and died, and now her husband has also died of it, leaving 5 CHILDREN orphans. When does this stop???? https://www.cbsnews.com/news/california-covid-couple-dies-daniel-davy-macias/

Nurses Promoting COVID Misinformation
This nurse made headlines when she appeared at a MI school board meeting and presented anti-mask rhetoric. She also promoted antivaccine misinformation on her social media. Not only did she refuse to get vaccinated, but she refused to take the simple steps available to her to prevent her own infection. This is just insane. Did she refuse to wear a mask into her clients' homes when she cared for them there???? SMH...well, not surprisingly, she contracted Covid. https://obits.mlive.com/us/obituaries/grandrapids/name/dianna-brummel-rathbun-obituary?pid=200262769

Pushed by quacks, use of Ivermectin is poisoning people
I literally just read a conversation on facebook: Young dialysis patient goes to hospital with Covid. He was dismayed to be getting medicines that "can cause kidney failure." He checked himself out of the hospital and is literally taking the horse paste version of Ivermectin-this is by his own admission. Many of his friends are applauding him for his common sense. A lot of them stated they used "the paste" with great results. A few caution him to make sure he is taking the correct dose...he says he is confident that he is. Another friend offers to help him get a physician to prescribe the human formulation that he can get from a compounding pharmacy and he refuses, saying he is good with "the paste" that he got at "Homers feed and supply in Hildebran." Unbelievable. This young man is a body builder and pretty young and fit in spite of his comorbidities. He may survive this - IN SPITE OF, NOT BECAUSE OF-Ivermectin. At least I hope he does. All of this behavior is the direct result of reading misinformation on social media. Sometimes the truth is actually stranger than fiction...

Will nurses in the ER soon hear the following?
Haven't you heard? Nurses want to put people on vents even if they don't qualify for it because they get extra $$$$ when people go on the vent. That is a serious assertion I've read multiple times on FB and other social media.

So not only is he a violent jerk, but he clearly thinks his wife doesn't have the right to medical autonomy. I feel for the nurse, but even worse for the wife.

Physician Spreads Dis-Information: License Revoked
The request for money is frankly mind blowing. You KNOW that he is probably asking everyone who comes in. This guy is a nutcase and I agree he needs to be reported, ESPECIALLY about asking for money from potentially trusting and vulnerable people. I will say that your new street name did take me aback, LOL! Imagine if you were the gullible type. You'd be signing over the deed to him as we speak! ?
