General Corona virus updates

what’s your opinion
If you where in charge would you shut down all in school learning?

My opinion is exactly what I said.

I'd certainly have to take a look at things to see what the safest method for conducting effective classes would be if teachers are dying before they're trapped in a small room with 30 potential carriers for 8 hours a day.

Oh my I've never seen a 13-year-old be afraid to get a needle poke.

Also not American

TikTok

Also she deleted the video because anti-vaxxers were using it when that wasn't her intent

Are these right wingers even capable of posting ANY links, memes etc that are honest and factual, with no lies or bullshit?

Really doesn't seem so. Why does it always have to be lies, ALL the time, about everything?

[John Lee Pettimore]

So for the record
Are you against forcing kids to get an unapproved vaccine? Let’s not act like this is just around the corner.

So for the record

Stop posting fucking lies.

When you post lies, that means you haven't actually made any point at all, and it's fair to just call you a gullible, ignorant fuckwit.

@sparkuri

Serious question

Are you OK?

Watching all that can't be good for your mental health.....I'm not messing about.

I've watched my friend literally change since all this began...I can't bear to be around him anymore... Not because of his beliefs but because he is refusing to stop talking about it 24 hours a day.

Give yourself a break champ.

He's fine, wallowing in conspiracy garbage all day, every day is perfectly healthy and doesn't affect anyone's psyche, mental state or social relationships at all, ever.

Bruh,
I've run out of beds and ventilators. I am absolutely by reality and history not an anti-vaccinator apologist.

But there's zero reason to be this angry about somebody posting an internet video.
@MMAHAWK saw a video somebody else posted that is concerning to him.
If you really want to share your vitriol, I would recommend going after the original Twitter account who likely knew the context.

I Don't think it's fair to expect everybody to know the context of every video they see and share. I don't think you get to tell them they are idiots unless you share that context and then they make a judgment call that still completely debased from reality.

Simmer down now.

I'm heading back up to the hospital now. I was there until 1am. One of my patients that was on the mend there is now doing poorly. Barely holding it together on BiPAP.

Night shift RT or a nurse tweaking your settings, not understanding your goal probably.

I heard more frustration from doctors seeing their settings moved away from what they were targeting.

In defense, the differences in what doctors are doing with tidal volume and PEEP in covid patients on bipap or the vent is confusing to some as they were often changing, chasing the numbers (vitals, labs).

High tidal volume, low PEEP. No! Now we are going low tidal volume, high PEEP.

Like this, I have to read it slow when it gets to type L and type H patients, etc.

Intensive care management of patients with COVID-19: a practical approach - Annals of Intensive Care

Maybe we just had less experienced RT people (due to small ICU).

my kid's pre-K class had 3 positives after 2 weeks in school. They have a total of 9 siblings in older grades.
my daughter had symptoms of a cold, and her SARS-COV2 test came back negative.

I concede there are many unknowns with the vaccine. And I may regret getting it later. But I weighed my odds and made my choice.

As have those who have not gotten it.
They have seen what they have seen, and you have seen what you have seen.

Or instead of constantly posting essentially nothing but stupid lies, maybe he should check the source?

Take these right-wing conspiracy guys. Check the next meme or tweet or link that they post. What are the chances that at least some of its claims are flat out lies? Almost guaranteed. Over and over and over, just lie after lie after lie. Why is that?

Also, I'm not actually angry. I just can't understand why this kind of ignorance and gullibility is apparently supposed to be hilarious.

I mean, unlike most here, both of us work in fields where we come into contact with the inevitable end result of this avalanche of nonstop lies. How many people have you treated, who are now dead because every day they logged into Facebook and their feed was full of a self-reinforcing loop of the exact kind of lying garbage that these guys constantly post - and they believed it all?

And now they're dead, because believing lies about covid and the vaccine killed them.

Hilarious, right?

Let's have MMAHAWK take a few emergency calls where someone's lost their fucking mind due to Qanon shit - like Tony Ferguson did - and now their terrified family is barricaded behind the bathroom door while the mentally ill father trashes the house while ranting about Bill Gates and Hillary Clinton and yelling about demons. That shit is real, and it's far more common than people realise. I don't see the humour in it, and I don't respect people for perpetuating these garbage lies.

Cannabidiol Inhibits SARS-CoV-2 Replication and Promotes the Host Innate Immune Response

The rapid spread of COVID-19 underscores the need for new treatments. Here we report that cannabidiol (CBD), a compound produced by the cannabis plant, inhibits SARS-CoV-2 infection. CBD and its metabolite, 7-OH-CBD, but not congeneric cannabinoids, potently ...

They have seen what they have seen, and you have seen what you have seen.

That's exactly what I said. I know what rationale I used to make my decision and said that I was interested in hearing theirs. Which implies that I believe that they do have one.

Right?

Yes.
I was agreeing with you.

I know nurses who have and haven't and they each make a compelling case for their decision.

Stay safe nurse.

Please. Just a little. No one is asking you to refrain from debating or sharing opinions but your posts are the equivalent of using a megaphone to speak to someone right next to you. No need to freak out to get your point across even when you are disagreeing. Just try to chill a tiny bit with the dozen paragraph responses and broad brush labeling.

It takes me maybe ten seconds to read a post of that length. Maybe.

It legitimately does not matter what tone I post in, I will get the same braindead responses regardless. If I go out of my way to be polite and civil, (as I have tried multiple times) I will just get some smug cunt going "okay Vutu, whatever lol" and then posting a stupid gif. Fuck all that. If you (by which I mean "you guys") can't actually defend any of the shit you post - because the majority of it is lies - then why should I waste my time kissing your ass? You're just gonna do the same shit regardless.

So, does anyone know how we're rationalizing vaccine passports because kids can't get vaccinated for covid, but not vaccine passports for flu shots?

Testing for Antibodies should be a topic and factor in all these mandates, passports, and vaccinations.

Otherwise you are just telling somebody what to do with their body without knowing anything about their body.

That being left out of any equation or discussion is rather telling IMO.

Washington Post, lol. Funny how you cunts will suddenly believe it the exact second it tells you something you want to hear. Weird coincidence, right?

I thought testing for antibodies was an option for the passports. Like in France (because I just read it, lol), even just a positive Rona test result will get you a health pass for 6 months.

You have severe mental issues
I did apply to be a 911 dispatch a couple years back but didn’t get job because of typing speed.
It appears taking emergency calls has made you a mentally broken cunt or NZ emergency response hires mentally broken cunts from the start.

Stop posting stupid lies that can be debunked in 2 seconds and are targeted at ignorant retards, and I'll stop calling you a gullible fuckwit clown. Deal?

How about this then… since you were the only one lucky enough to know everything about everything and whose opinions are all 100% indisputable fact, why not take mercy on the rest of humankind and have a little empathy and patience? Is that a decent compromise? Or if that is not how you really view yourself, maybe try being vulnerable enough to accept that this is how you are coming across most of the time. I agree with a lot that you say but man, how you say it is just plain obnoxious. Sorry for the unsolicited advice but please just consider that many here would appreciate a softer touch. Sincerely, I’m coming from a good place on this So please don’t take it personally.
