Just take some ivermectin


I'm not taking anything, why would I. People act like covid is smallpox or the bubonic plague. They act like it has a low survival rate when it actually has a very high survival rate. If you are in reasonably good condition at any age there's a 99% chance you're going to live. Being a gambler I'll take those odds especially since I already lived through it once. It wasn't fun but I didn't die.

"This is an interview with Dr. Richard Ebright, the Board of Governors Professor of Chemistry and Chemical Biology at Rutgers University and Laboratory Director at the Waksman Institute of Microbiology. Ebright received an A.B. summa cum laude in biology from Harvard University in 1981 and a Ph.D. in Microbiology and Molecular Genetics from Harvard University in 1987.

Ebright recently made national headlines when he responded to The Intercept’s FOIA dump of more than 900 documents showing that Dr. Anthony Fauci lied in front of Congress about the NIH funding gain-of-function research in Wuhan.

“The documents make it clear that assertions by the NIH Director, Francis Collins, and the NIAID Director, Anthony Fauci, that the NIH did not support gain-of-function research or potential pandemic pathogen enhancement at WIV are untruthful,” Ebright wrote about the Intercept data dump earlier this month."

This old news
Didn't Rand Paul already snitch on Fauci for lying
Did he lie???????????
Where is the perjury charge if he lied?????????????????
It amazes me that some on the right still think Fauci is Dr evil
No doubt Tyler Durden is lying about his name.

New article out today in the Rabid left wing magazine the Atlantic which is owned by Steve Jobs widow. It says the claims of covid hospitalizations are being blown way out of proportion. Just like last year there are people in the hospital who were admitted for everything else under the sun and when they find out they have covid they are listed as a hospitalized covid patient. Even though they have mild symptoms or no symptoms at all they are still lumped in with everybody else in there who's got bad symptoms. This accounts for almost 50% of the hospitalization numbers that the Beijing Joe Administration keeps throwing at us.

"In other words, the study suggests that roughly half of all the hospitalized patients showing up on COVID-data dashboards in 2021 may have been admitted for another reason entirely, or had only a mild presentation of disease."

So using hospitalizations to track the disease is worthless. Remember this is a left-wing magazine, extremely left-wing. Read it yourself. Bottom line is covid-19 is not nearly as devastating as these vaccination radicalized liberals are trying to make out.

Nationwide .01% of people who get the flu every year die from it. In my county .01% of the people who got covid died from it. Identical to the flu. But it's even less than that because no county knows exactly how many people have covid. Not everyone who has covid-19 reports it, my wife and her sister and a bunch of other people in my wife's family who got covid from that van ride never reported it to anybody. They weren't sick enough. The testing they did was with expensive store-bought test kits. My wife took two. And who knows if the death rate is even being reported accurately. Last year if somebody died in a motorcycle accident and they found out in the hospital they had covid they listed covid as the cause of death so they can get government funding. Who knows how much of that is still going on.

Really?

I'd never heard of that; where was this sort of thing happening, and have you any links?

The Inspector General would want to hear about this fraud.

I remember seeing it in news stories. There was money in it so they did it. Sheep then look at the numbers and scream, "SAVE ME, TAKE MY RIGHTS AWAY AND SAVE ME!!" Intellectually curious people look and say, "this does not seem right."

"Man who died in motorcycle crash counted as COVID-19 death in Florida: Report"

"VERIFY: Do hospitals get more funding by marking deaths COVID-19 related?" - ABC News

"THE ANSWER:
ABC10 can verify that hospitals do get reimbursed for coronavirus related care, which unfortunately includes deaths."



Fact check: Hospitals get paid more if patients listed as COVID-19, on ventilators -USA Today

"Our ruling: True

We rate the claim that hospitals get paid more if patients are listed as COVID-19 and on ventilators as TRUE.

Hospitals and doctors do get paid more for Medicare patients diagnosed with COVID-19 or if it's considered presumed they have COVID-19 absent a laboratory-confirmed test, and three times more if the patients are placed on a ventilator to cover the cost of care and loss of business resulting from a shift in focus to treat COVID-19 cases."
