  1. Is this a good new grad NP offer?

    myoglobin replied to AGUS821's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    These offers might be okay for the region, but why stay in such a high cost, high tax area for such low pay? You could probably equal that offer here in Florida and not have income tax. We pay...

  2. I Really Do Not Want the COVID Vaccine ?

    myoglobin replied to AspiringNurse94's topic in Disaster Preparation

    I believe that there are a plethora of possibilities and that the most likely isn't that influenza has gone down dramatically. However, in the absence of data it is just

  3. I Really Do Not Want the COVID Vaccine ?

    myoglobin replied to AspiringNurse94's topic in Disaster Preparation

    That is one hypothesis. Another is that there have been less reported cases of morbidity and mortality from influenza because everything is getting lumped with

  4. I Really Do Not Want the COVID Vaccine ?

    myoglobin replied to AspiringNurse94's topic in Disaster Preparation

    This would help establish several things: a. How well do the nurses fare who take the vaccines as compared to those who do not in Covid morbidity and mortality. b. How well do nurses who...

  5. DNP: Mirroring the Path of DO?

    myoglobin replied to AF2BSN's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Whatever, the reason it is good to have low liability insurance

    myoglobin replied to AspiringNurse94's topic in Disaster Preparation

    I was talking more about the proposed UK policy https://www.businessinsider.com/blair-one-covid-19-vaccine-shot-experts-said-no-?op=1 . I believe that the argument that only getting one shot could...

  7. I Really Do Not Want the COVID Vaccine ?

    myoglobin replied to AspiringNurse94's topic in Disaster Preparation

    I am talking about controlled, cohort studies of those taking the vaccines under different circumstances. I am not aware of a single ongoing study that examines these issues. It could be quite useful....

  8. I Really Do Not Want the COVID Vaccine ?

    myoglobin replied to AspiringNurse94's topic in Disaster Preparation

    At the very least the situation of not having "second" shot available could be a bonus in terms of opportunity for cohort studies. Thus, it should be easy to compare health care workers who: a....

  9. I Really Do Not Want the COVID Vaccine ?

    myoglobin replied to AspiringNurse94's topic in Disaster Preparation

    A point need not be from a “scholarly” source to be valid. No scholarly source would disagree with the numbers for Belgium or Italy. I reject the thesis of argument from authority as having more...

  10. I Really Do Not Want the COVID Vaccine ?

    myoglobin replied to AspiringNurse94's topic in Disaster Preparation

    This article makes the case that lockdowns have been less than successful https://www.spiked-online.com/2020/12/27/lockdown-a-deadly-failed-experiment/

  11. Yes, Employer Can Require Covid Vaccine

    myoglobin replied to TheMoonisMyLantern's topic in Disaster Preparation

    Also, if these reports https://thenewamerican.com/covid-vaccine-adverse-reactions-noted-bio-buttons-to-monitor-results/ hold up I believe that the employers who mandate these vaccines might make...

  12. Yes, Employer Can Require Covid Vaccine

    myoglobin replied to TheMoonisMyLantern's topic in Disaster Preparation

    One difference is that it is my understanding that with traditional vaccines should you have a bad reaction you can get compensation from the Congressional compensation fund (that relieves pharmacy...

  13. I Really Do Not Want the COVID Vaccine ?

    myoglobin replied to AspiringNurse94's topic in Disaster Preparation

    No, my diagnosis is Autism (formerly and still Asperger's on ICD-10, but DSMV did away with Asperger's and ADHD F90.2. I have never been treated. I agree that getting kids back in school should take...

  14. I Really Do Not Want the COVID Vaccine ?

    myoglobin replied to AspiringNurse94's topic in Disaster Preparation

    Credit card or they mail a check. Currently all of my clients are in other states even though I live in Florida. Also, I don't pursue collections, charge no show fees. If people don't pay I will...

  15. I Really Do Not Want the COVID Vaccine ?

    myoglobin replied to AspiringNurse94's topic in Disaster Preparation

    Probably the same ones who generate about 25K per month in income for me right now (about half are cash pay) online via the internet. I would do online telepsych. Maybe I would not prescribe...

  16. Rooting out Racial Bias in Nursing: Hope and Grace

    myoglobin replied to jeastridge's topic in General Specialties

    While systemic racism is definitely an issue having worked about 10 years in ICU for an HCA facility I would endorse that we gave the same level of poor service and care to people of all races, sexes...

  17. Do you have a side hustle?

    myoglobin replied to Mrsvirgomama's topic in General Nursing

  18. I Really Do Not Want the COVID Vaccine ?

    myoglobin replied to AspiringNurse94's topic in Disaster Preparation

    I believe this precedent would uphold laws requiring vaccination. However, at the same time I believe these laws are unlikely. Furthermore, I doubt they would be implemented everywhere. Thus, someone...

  19. I Really Do Not Want the COVID Vaccine ?

    myoglobin replied to AspiringNurse94's topic in Disaster Preparation

    The study showed almost no difference in those gaining prevention on "catching" the virus (not statistically significant), but could not prove that masks don't help in reducing transmission to others....

  20. I Really Do Not Want the COVID Vaccine ?

    myoglobin replied to AspiringNurse94's topic in Disaster Preparation

    My point is that almost half a million die each year from a "hobby" (and injure and kill others who happen to be in their presence like kids) and yet no one seriously considers making smoking illegal....

  21. I Really Do Not Want the COVID Vaccine ?

    myoglobin replied to AspiringNurse94's topic in Disaster Preparation

    The point is that most people under 65 with no major comorbidities are more likely to doe of almost anything (which kills a goodly number of people) such as heart disease, or smoking than they are...

  22. I Really Do Not Want the COVID Vaccine ?

    myoglobin replied to AspiringNurse94's topic in Disaster Preparation

    At least everyone seems to still be in agreement that the vaccine should not be mandatory which was the real point for the person starting the thread. That is at least something to agree

    Either we have the lowest influenza activity in the last 100years or thousands of cases of influenza and their deaths are being counted as Covid https://www.CDC.gov/flu/weekly/index.htm . Also on the...

  24. I Really Do Not Want the COVID Vaccine ?

    myoglobin replied to AspiringNurse94's topic in Disaster Preparation

    If masks and social distancing are the answer then why has almost every European country suffered a similar fate (repeated closings and lockdowns) despite more restrictive lockdowns and mask laws? The...
