Covid - 19

Yep, remember that it was all Trump's fault the China virus occurred and then really his fault when it became a pandemic. It was even his fault when it swept thru Europe early on. And now, under Biden these brand new variants, well...are also Trump's fault! And spurred on by Trumpsters! If said Trumpsters had just not vacationed in Peru maybe we wouldn't have this third version! Dang it all! Of course, one wonders how all these FOREIGN viruses keep getting here. No reason to be vaxxed if you cannot be exposed to this virus or any disease. Do we get vaxxed against malaria or cholera? Yet those two illnesses are still around, common at times, in other parts of the world.

Yep, some of this is tongue-in-cheek and aimed at certain goofy posters on this forum. But, there is also some truth in it. I do not understand how/why the China virus has gotten even worse. Since January we are told there are "adults in charge." Well....????? :icon_roll:

I think y’all are just mad because you know, whether you’ll admit it or not, that if Trump had really led on the virus instead of trying to preserve the kook wing of his party, he’d still be president.

From the chief hater himself!

I notice you didn’t disagree. It’s okay if you can’t admit it publicly. We both know I’m right.

When asked you and the other haters always deflect…how should he have led?

You're just mad....or maybe thrilled*....that your sorry-ass choices are pushing obummer-biden as the worst admin in US history.


*you may actually be glad to see the systematic destruction of the USA (wouldn't surprise me)

The ENTIRE policy of this admin for COVID is to try and distribute the vaccine that was created ONLY because Trump was able to think outside of the box (because he has not spent his entire life IN the box) and to make political statements against republicans. They are CLERICAL at best, which is to be expected because that is what they've always been.

If anything, they are prolonging the pain from the virus by opening the southern border and looking the other way as variant after variant walks in and gets distributed to all corners of the country. It's rather stupid if you think about it. And this is happening as they recommend masks for our small children, who would not likely be harmed from the virus but are being destroyed by masking and the inability to interact with classmates. I think I would have lost my mind if these restrictions were placed on me as a elementary school student, and I say this as someone that had the red measles, chicken pox and a few other diseases for which we have vaccines.

Who is taking Ivermectin as a prophylactic? Hearing good things from doctors on the ground about this incredibly safe treatment/preventative. Speaking of this, why are we still referring to this as a virus when anti parasitic meds are working?

We are calling it a virus because it is a virus. Where do you get your foolishness from?

I have seen a single study that proves that it works. People are just grasping at straws at this point. I’ve got enough on the farm to dose up half of Ouachita Parish for the right price.

Meanwhile, we are seeing record admits of children in the hospital with COVID…please stop spreading ignorance. You are only helping perpetuate a health crisis.

Again, why do antiparasitic drugs work? I thought it was viral. All you can do is alleviate a virus until it runs its course. A bacteria or parasite can be eliminated. Multiple doctors in several north Louisiana communities are prescribing it. People sick with Covid are getting over it in 24-36 hours if taking ivermectin. Just telling you what I have heard from actual doctors treating people. I don’t have any government funded studies to back it up.

Edit: I will also add that these patients never see the inside of a hospital, much less get put on a vent.

I’m going to give you all some friendly advice. If you or one of your loved ones gets sick and needs to be hospitalized, wherever you go is likely where you will remain one way or the other. It’s almost impossible to transfer anyone right now unless you can pull some strings due to the overwhelming number of holdovers in the ER departments. I hope none of you are waiting on a surgery, because I have a feeling they are about to be delayed.

That’s the thing. Who’s to say those people don’t get over it without any treatment? I had it last October and got over it in about 72 hours without anything other than Ibuprofen/Tylenol. Without controlled studies, it’s all just a guess.

It’s all a guess. This study says vaccines are 90+% affective. This one says 40%. This one says chloroquine. This one says ivermectin. I have seen people at the same stages of severity go on the vent. 1 is off in 2 days and another passed away in 2 hours. Who do you trust? Who really knows?
