So you think it makes more sense to blindly believe and agree with internet randos that claim they are actually doctors?Cause of death: Taking medical advice from internet randos instead of actual doctors.
I mean let’s be fair, Based off of current statistics a minimum of 13 of these 14 people that died from Covid that I had to fill the death certificate out on would have survived and they’ve been vaccinated.Cause of death: Taking medical advice from internet randos instead of actual doctors.
The only thing I have ever faked with you is an orgasm.So you think it makes more sense to blindly believe and agree with internet randos that claim they are actually doctors?
Interesting. Especially in light of your recent claims that shot cheerleaders were more educated about covid and less likely to blindly accept information about it or shots.
Seems to be just the opposite here.
Seeing the same thing in Louisiana Alabama and Florida. Pretty safe to say we’ve reached the peak of this surge and are on the down slide thank God.The last 8 days is a good trend for us here in Houston. Positive cases declining. Hospitalizations are following as one would expect

QUESTION for the group.
I am filling out death certificates today. I had to certify the cause of death 16 certificates in August. All but 2 had COVID. What I list will be their official cause of death For the state records.
They all died because they had COVID inducted ARDS and Hypoxic Respiratory Failure Refractory to Therapy. None of them would have been in the hospital or died had they not contracted COVID. None were vaccinated.
Some had long standing obesity
Some had long sanding controlled diabetes
Some had long standing hypertension
A few had no known medical problems at all
So, in you opinion, what should I have listed as their cause of death?
And no, @instaGATOR , Medical malpractice is not one of the options.
The irony is, we already have seen one poster here take the 'paste' and almost immediately recover from covid.
First question is does he suffer from obesity or diabetes? Assuming that he does not:Alright. Serious discussion. Tag your buddies @gator1776

Scenario: wife and I have a 15 yr old boy on the autism spectrum ( high functioning). We have been going back and forth on vaccine for him. I see studies that say do it, and then read articles about their immune system that give me pause. Thoughts? Couple of items to consider. When he was 10 he had to be rushed to hospital for severe allergic reaction to about a half dozen red ant bites. He also had a sensitivity to a medication once (Dont recall the med off hand)
Autism Linked To Immune System Problems, Further Evidence Found

First question is does he suffer from obesity or diabetes? Assuming that he does not:
Definitely a tough call. Even though this round of coronavirus has been harder on the younger population, and we have definitely seen pediatric severe Covid this time, the percentage of young people getting severely sick actually remained roughly the same. It’s just that the Delta variant is so highly infectious that we seen peaks in infection rates higher than we’ve ever seen before so by law of averages there are more pediatric patients this go round without an increase in the percentage of sick pediatric patients.
in other words, it is extremely unlikely that your 15-year-old will get severe Covid even if he’s unvaccinated. Well below 0.1%. Provide of course he’s not fairly obese which is a huge risk factor.
Given that aspect, and the fact that he has had allergic reactions to things before I would probably air on the side of not vaccinating him.
The autism is an interesting discussion. There is never been definitive prove that vaccinations lead to autism and there has been a definite increase in autism over the last 50 years but mostly because doctors didn’t even know what the hell it was 50 years ago. All that said because he’s a highly functional Autistic I do wear that ever so slightly in the risk category and I think in this situation, because of the prior allergic reaction, plus minus the history of autism, and the low risk of severe infection in the pediatric population, again I would error on the side of not vaccinating him. Again providing he’s not significantly obese Or does not have diabetes..
All that said in the end I would go with the recommendations of your doctor and your pediatrician over mine on the Internet.

I would absolutely still recommend the vaccine. Although the chance of death is very low, it shouldn’t be the only marker. Kids with autism, have almost 2 fold increase in worse covid outcomes that other children.First question is does he suffer from obesity or diabetes? Assuming that he does not:

That's terrible news. I get they still have better %'s, but it's not moving in the right direction.
It looks like it's almost double that at hospital #3.So 19% of the inpatients are vaccinated?
That's terrible news. I get they still have better %'s, but it's not moving in the right direction.

I think it is. The overall number is way down, down 25% from just a week ago. The Unvaccinated rate at almost 82% is still consistent with what has been said all along, you’re far more likely to get more severely ill if you’re unvaccinated.So 19% of the inpatients are vaccinated?
That's terrible news. I get they still have better %'s, but it's not moving in the right direction.
It would and the only data that mostly gets kept is did you get the vaccine or not. I think as we start to understand this virus more and more the questions will become more detailed. How long ago did you get the vaccine how long ago was your second shot did you get a booster which one did you get so on and so forth. I will suggest we start tracking more of that information going forward.Sisters hospital shot up to 21 percent a couple weeks back. It has since stabilized around 20 percent. I wish there was more in depth data like which vaccines, and how long ago administered etc. that surely would help to understand more
I mean I’m not a big believer in preventing people from posting or tweeting, but what he posted was blatantly wrong, misleading, yellow journalism, propaganda, and dangerous based off of the actual medical research and literature available. I would prefer that they just deleted his tweet and not band him, But I haven’t seen you guys post to single thing from him yet that was actually accurate or anything more than misleading propaganda. Should we allow people to post Blayton lies? I guess the moral and ethical dilemma we face today.Yay for fascism!!!!
Just think, if we ban/censor ALL the people who ask honest questions about the shots and covid, we will be left with nothing but a bunch of shot cheerleaders and covid fear mongers.
Then sheep will only hear about how good the shot is! Awesome!
Gee....if only we had a historical reference for what happens when you censor people just for stating an opinion. Hmmm.....
Oh well, get your shots, kids, they're totally yummy to your tummy!!!!
I don't agree with the banning or censoring at all. Prefer they just call him out on his BS.Yay for fascism!!!!

What was wrong with what he tweeted?I don't agree with the banning or censoring at all. Prefer they just call him out on his BS.

Didn't you post intentionally false information and privately message members telling them that you were lying in order to try to 'get a rise' out of certain posters here?Should we allow people to post Blayton lies? I guess the moral and ethical dilemma we face today.
He was too aggressive in how he stated facts.What was wrong with what he tweeted?
Call him out. What did he say that was wrong?I don't agree with the banning or censoring at all. Prefer they just call him out on his BS.
But he's right. These shots aren't vaccines. They don't even meet the CDC's own definition of what a vaccine is.He was too aggressive in how he stated facts.
Side effect profile isn't great compared to other vaccines. Efficacy clearly wanes. These vaccines still allow you to get and spread Covid, but they do help you if you get sick avoid the worst outcomes.
I think that's exactly what he said...I just said it more gently.
I don't know, didn't read it yet. Just that if it is BS and someone disagrees with it, calling it out is fair game.Call him out. What did he say that was wrong?
We're all friends here.
Just took a look at the tweet, definitely unbalanced (disproportionately emphasizing the limited drawbacks when compared to the relative benefits, appealing to definition about being a vaccine and fear mongering). It totally lacks context. Again, don't agree with the banning, but calling it out seems fine to me since it is a one-sided take.What was wrong with what he tweeted?

Ok cool. Yea I looked at that in a comment above. Definitely not a balanced or contextual tweet. Even if I disagree with it, don’t think he should be banned
Like I said - everything he said was true he was just way too aggressive about it.Ok cool. Yea I looked at that in a comment above. Definitely not a balanced or contextual tweet. Even if I disagree with it, don’t think he should be banned
Anyone who reads that tweet and believes it will likely assume the odds of a bad outcome associated with the vaccine is more probable than it actually is, so the message is deceptive. A play on words intended to convince rather than convey actual information. Somewhat subtly deceptive, but deceptive nonethelessLike I said - everything he said was true he was just way too aggressive about it.
These vaccines are essentially treatments you take before you get sick. That’s all he was saying. It’s more how he said it.
No vaccine is not a treatment it’s a preventative therapy. And they are not horrible side effects and adverse reactions are extremely rare. There’s a lot of inaccuracies in the tweet and it is misleading and I would’ve deleted the tweet but I would not of banned him.Like I said - everything he said was true he was just way too aggressive about it.

"Protect yourself: Get vaccinated".Just took a look at the tweet, definitely unbalanced (disproportionately emphasizing the limited drawbacks when compared to the relative benefits, appealing to definition about being a vaccine and fear mongering). It totally lacks context. Again, don't agree with the banning, but calling it out seems fine to me since it is a one-sided take.
Then call it out with a substantive counterargument. I certainly wouldn't want anyone banned over it."Protect yourself: Get vaccinated".
We see a close variation of this statement posted here daily.
You couldn't ask for a statement that's more lacking in 'context'. Yet that somehow, someway, never gets called out.
Got to meet Joe in my MMA days. He's a great dude, and I hope he is doing well.
Joe Rogan tests positive for covid on Sunday. Refuses the shot, takes ivermectin instead, fine again this morning.
The meltdowns from the shot cheerleaders on Twitter are priceless. The left now has Rogan as Most Hated. And I'm pretty sure Rogan is a dem.
