  1. I Really Do Not Want the COVID Vaccine ?

    myoglobin replied to AspiringNurse94's topic in Disaster Preparation

    I was a double major in biology and economics before going back for nursing but so what. There are people with PhD's in economics on the left who I consider crazy and people on the right (think Milton...

  2. I Really Do Not Want the COVID Vaccine ?

    myoglobin replied to AspiringNurse94's topic in Disaster Preparation

    I may end up taking the vaccine, However, I am staunchly opposed to it being mandated. For many, many years I fumed that doctors at the hospital where I worked did not have to take the influenza...

  3. I Really Do Not Want the COVID Vaccine ?

    myoglobin replied to AspiringNurse94's topic in Disaster Preparation

    The current paradigm is not sustainable. I personally know three business owners who have lost their small business(s) (and their about 20 employees who I do not personally know). My approach seeks to...

  5. I Really Do Not Want the COVID Vaccine ?

    myoglobin replied to AspiringNurse94's topic in Disaster Preparation

    My approach would be voluntary. Your rent and groceries would be paid. Your food and medicine(s) delivered and if you chose to go out you would be provided with an n95 mask (or Kn if n95 were not...

  6. I Really Do Not Want the COVID Vaccine ?

    myoglobin replied to AspiringNurse94's topic in Disaster Preparation

    I would encourage wearing masks, allow and encourage working from home where possible. Allow sporting events at reduced capacity (maybe 50%), open bars and restaurants at reduced capacity. Certainly,...

  7. I Really Do Not Want the COVID Vaccine ?

    myoglobin replied to AspiringNurse94's topic in Disaster Preparation

    I do agree that once hospital capacity exceeds a certain point (especially ICU) then it makes sense to have very short term lockdowns, only until capacity increases. However, in the almost ten years I...

    1. https://pjmedia.com/news-and-politics/matt-margolis/2020/07/11/are-recent-covid-19-cases-in-florida-inflated-data-suggests-it-could-be-as-much-as-30-percent-n632542 . Evidence not proof, bias, just...

  9. I Really Do Not Want the COVID Vaccine ?

    myoglobin replied to AspiringNurse94's topic in Disaster Preparation

    No more than it has been proven that other states have inflated them by calling everything from gun shot deaths to hospice deaths Covid

  10. I Really Do Not Want the COVID Vaccine ?

    myoglobin replied to AspiringNurse94's topic in Disaster Preparation

    The theory that rights emanate from God is not "crazy land" it is one of the fundamental theories of rights it is stated in our Declaration of Independence:" We hold these truths to be self-evident,...

  11. I Really Do Not Want the COVID Vaccine ?

    myoglobin replied to AspiringNurse94's topic in Disaster Preparation

    I stand corrected on the comparison verses California. However, my point is that Florida has never had a mask mandate (although many if not most people wear them) and we have allowed 100% occupancy on...

  12. I Really Do Not Want the COVID Vaccine ?

    myoglobin replied to AspiringNurse94's topic in Disaster Preparation

    Also, my approach goes well beyond The Barrington approach in that I would offer extensive benefits to those over 70 or with other medical vulnerabilities such as subsidized rent, mortgage payments...

  13. I Really Do Not Want the COVID Vaccine ?

    myoglobin replied to AspiringNurse94's topic in Disaster Preparation

    Where did I say that I was not concerned if other humans live or die? This is a gross misrepresentation of my argument. Rather, I argued that lockdowns harm more than they help and I presented Florida...

  14. NP Hates from Physicians?

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

    The only scenario where it might make sense is in some areas (think East Coast Boston/New York) where PA's are relatively more sought after in acute care settings relative perhaps to acute care NP's....

  15. I Really Do Not Want the COVID Vaccine ?

    myoglobin replied to AspiringNurse94's topic in Disaster Preparation

    Of course it is but I reject the thesis that lockdowns are helpful in facilitating life. Rather, I propose they increase death in a number of ways from increasing unemployment, depression,...

  16. I Really Do Not Want the COVID Vaccine ?

    myoglobin replied to AspiringNurse94's topic in Disaster Preparation

    I am a Christian and the last time I checked the rate of death in Florida despite having a lower population is less than California or New York in spite of not having lock downs. There is no...

  17. I Really Do Not Want the COVID Vaccine ?

    myoglobin replied to AspiringNurse94's topic in Disaster Preparation

    I do not believe that rights are unlimited. I do however believe that they are being interpreted frequently in a bias manner (left of center politically) and by autocrats who have one set of rules for...

  18. I Really Do Not Want the COVID Vaccine ?

    myoglobin replied to AspiringNurse94's topic in Disaster Preparation

    Also here is another article that talks about "Covid passports" being demanded by the public

  19. I Really Do Not Want the COVID Vaccine ?

    myoglobin replied to AspiringNurse94's topic in Disaster Preparation

    To me it is pretty simple: Amendment I Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or...

  20. NP Hates from Physicians?

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

    Also, I would submit that if you are going back to school and wish to continue clinical practice that a PhD might be a superior option since at least you could conduct a longer, dedicated thesis...

  21. NP Hates from Physicians?

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

    There are advantages to being an NP over a PA such as full IP in many states. Also realize that if you go back to school to become a DNP realize that beyond the Masters level almost none of the...

  22. I Really Do Not Want the COVID Vaccine ?

    myoglobin replied to AspiringNurse94's topic in Disaster Preparation

    Also, here is an article from The New England Journal of Medicine that I believe add credence to the thesis that Covid vaccines might be mandated for the general public...

  23. I Really Do Not Want the COVID Vaccine ?

    myoglobin replied to AspiringNurse94's topic in Disaster Preparation

    I believe that the thesis is that the "mRNA" provides broad based protection against a broad array of Covid-19. It would take a rather significant mutation to affect immune response. Also, there is...

  24. Failed My Third Semester

    myoglobin replied to Lynker's topic in LPN to RN

    I also found Lecturio and Khanacademy.org quite helpful during nursing

  25. Find Your Place in the COVID Vaccine Line

    myoglobin replied to NRSKarenRN's topic in Disaster Preparation

    My place is after they pry my cold dead hands from my guns or perhaps after I'm intubated with my third bout of Covid (I've had it twice). No interest in the vaccine unless it is forced and even then...
