  1. California 1st in nation to require vaccines for health care workers

    macawake replied to hppygr8ful's topic in Disaster Preparation

    Your arrogance is impressive. Your point didn’t finally hit home. I have the same opinions as I did when we started this conversation. I have always tried to be helpful to posters when I think they...

  2. Termination From Employer For Refusing EUV

    macawake replied to RaineyRN7's topic in Disaster Preparation

    ”Being on the wrong side of history while it repeats itself” and the Nuremburg Code. You are implying that life-saving vaccines during the worst pandemic we’ve seen in our lifetimes is the same...

  3. California 1st in nation to require vaccines for health care workers

    macawake replied to hppygr8ful's topic in Disaster Preparation

    Reading your reply to me makes me think that you haven’t understood a single word I’ve said. English is my fourth language, but come on! It’s not that bad. I haven’t been arguing...

  4. Termination From Employer For Refusing EUV

    macawake replied to RaineyRN7's topic in Disaster Preparation

    Does this mean that you don’t think that herd immunity is something we should even be bothering with when it comes to infectious diseases? Basically, everyone just looks out for number

  5. California 1st in nation to require vaccines for health care workers

    macawake replied to hppygr8ful's topic in Disaster Preparation

    Okay, I’m going to try to explain what my ? is with your posts. You have told us over and over again how you think that we should be conducting ourselves but you are not doing ANYTHING to help...

  6. California 1st in nation to require vaccines for health care workers

    macawake replied to hppygr8ful's topic in Disaster Preparation

    I can see why you might think the strategy is ill-advised if you think I’m trying to change their minds about the vaccines. That’s not my goal at all. With a certain kind of poster, that’s...

  7. Termination From Employer For Refusing EUV

    macawake replied to RaineyRN7's topic in Disaster Preparation

    This is something that is so very hard for me to understand. I’m not trying to start an argument here, but it is my understanding of Christianity and most other religions that I know of, that...

  8. Termination From Employer For Refusing EUV

    macawake replied to RaineyRN7's topic in Disaster Preparation

    Hi there! This is your first post here so I’m guessing there’s a reason you made it? Do you have any questions you want to ask us? The legal questions are probably best left to those with legal...

  9. California 1st in nation to require vaccines for health care workers

    macawake replied to hppygr8ful's topic in Disaster Preparation

    I honestly think that you are just arguing semantics. You wrote a series of posts, sharing your opinion that you think some posters are belittling and shaming other posters with ”different...

  10. California 1st in nation to require vaccines for health care workers

    macawake replied to hppygr8ful's topic in Disaster Preparation

    You’ve made half a dozen posts complaining about how some posters address posts that attempt to disseminate vaccine disinformation, but as someone who has posted a lot in the Covid subforum, I...

  11. Case Study Help!

    macawake replied to Rick Sanchez's topic in General Nursing

    Since you came here I’m guessing you are a nursing student? What semester and how much pathophysiology have you studied? It just seems odd that your teachers would just send you this and tell you to...

  12. Rant About Covid Antivaxxers

    macawake replied to SunDazed's topic in Disaster Preparation

    No. Lies and disinformation ≠ common sense. It’s very odd and quite concerning that you think it does. Can you provide factual evidence that supports any of the claims this poster made. The...

  13. Rant About Covid Antivaxxers

    macawake replied to SunDazed's topic in Disaster Preparation

    How many posts in this thread can you find that have stated that they support what’s being described in OP’s vent, becoming reality? There are many nurses who can understand OP’s...

  14. Rant About Covid Antivaxxers

    macawake replied to SunDazed's topic in Disaster Preparation

    Horseshoe is correct. There are many outright LIES in your post. The adverse events are not worse from the vaccines than from a Covid-19 infection. On a population level, an infection is...

  15. Rant About Covid Antivaxxers

    macawake replied to SunDazed's topic in Disaster Preparation

    No, I don’t think people said that about Hitler. But you know that your argument is flailing a bit when you need to bring him up. Argue your standpoints and opinions instead. When you...

  16. Feel Awful after 1st COVID Vaccination

    macawake replied to Glam03's topic in Disaster Preparation

    Thanks for the link ? Perhaps I should have been more specific about my question to OP. I’m aware of the differences in general between male and female immune responses, but I was curious if OP had...

  17. Feel Awful after 1st COVID Vaccination

    macawake replied to Glam03's topic in Disaster Preparation

    I was wondering that as well. I’m not aware about side effects being different between men and women who’ve had a previous Covid-19 infection. Perhaps OP can

  18. Feel Awful after 1st COVID Vaccination

    macawake replied to Glam03's topic in Disaster Preparation

    I agree. Absolutely waaaay

  19. Feel Awful after 1st COVID Vaccination

    macawake replied to Glam03's topic in Disaster Preparation

    I had mild to moderate expected vaccine-related side effects like injection site soreness, some chills, some myalgia and fatigue, that resolved within 24-36 hours. I was quite happy to feel my immune...

  20. Is someone justified in harassing someone to tell them if they got vaccinated or not?

    macawake replied to DesiDani's topic in Disaster Preparation

    I agree that it isn’t amusing. I think that was Horseshoe’s point. Only a nurse who either enjoys or at least doesn’t care, if their patient feels uncomfortable would decline to answer. There is...

  21. Three Tips for a Living a Healthier Lifestyle as a Nurse

    macawake replied to Nursing CE Central's topic in General Nursing

    I definitely agree with you that nutritious food, getting enough rest and sleep and plenty of exercise, is the key to good health. However in my opinion we spend way too much of our lives at work, to...

  22. Pentagon moves to mandate Covid-19 vaccine for active duty military members

    macawake replied to chare's topic in Disaster Preparation

    It seems like a wise choice for members of the armed forces to get vaccinated. There aren’t that many MOS codes that allows someone to physically distance and work in the safety of their home...

  23. Is someone justified in harassing someone to tell them if they got vaccinated or not?

    macawake replied to DesiDani's topic in Disaster Preparation

    Other posters have already replied to you, but since your post was in response to a post I made, I will reply as well. My point was simply this, why wouldn’t you answer a friend or...

  24. Is someone justified in harassing someone to tell them if they got vaccinated or not?

    macawake replied to DesiDani's topic in Disaster Preparation

    As a European, I don’t agree with your self-assessment. You clearly do not value health over much of anything. If you did, you would actually have affordable healthcare available for all, instead of...

  25. Rant About Covid Antivaxxers

    macawake replied to SunDazed's topic in Disaster Preparation

    Yes, that is the question you all should be asking. Who benefits when the populace are constantly at each others throats? Who benefits from a less stable and less united America? I think you need...
