Who wants to tell captain numbuts that the vax doesnt prevent you from getting covid, which is why Pfizer is coming up with a "pill" to take when you get covid after getting the vax.
I mean, thats like wiping your ass with a horse dil-do. (Which may explain why some of you seem so into the vax.)
Convenient how you edit my quote to leave out the exact thing that I am not claiming.
Quote:This, again, falls into the "taking more time to avoid a task than just doing it."
People are trying to wipe their ass with their elbows by wanting to take Ivermectin or HCQ AFTER they get Covid so they won't get as sick as they would if they just took some day-quil.
When the whole time the easiest way not to get sick from Covid and need to take a malaria drug or human de-wormer is getting a damn shot that is proving to be effective in keeping people from getting sick or dying.
It's like fuggin' "They Live" where Roddy Piper and dude have a 10 minute brawl because dude won't try some damn glasses on.
NOWHERE in that quote do I claim the shot will "prevent" someone from getting Covid.
Nowhere.
So, you edit my quote, then attribute a false statement to me.
You sir, are fake news.

Her doctor prescribed it. The board of pharmacy said no.
Let that sink in. Who is really in charge of your healthcare?

If I went for a wisdom tooth extraction and my doctor prescribed 30 oxy's, should someone serve as a gatekeeper, or simply allow the doctor to prescribe?
Not saying the doc shouldn't have the authority to prescribe whatever, just whether in any situation a pharmacy should serve as a gatekeeper?
Obviously they do in the event of prescription interactions, and while not the same as simply denying a singular prescription, they have a duty, to an extent, not to just "fill what the doctor tells them to fill."
Many people, particularly the elderly, have multiple doctors so pharmacies keeping and eye out for drug interactions is entirely a separate issue. I would argue that pharmacies have no business questioning a doctors order in any one particular instance. As far as I am aware, my pharmacist does not have the right to override my doctor's treatment orders.

Fair answer.

No congetting, just a sore butt and lower back and my eyeballs hurt. No fever.
This took the same course as back in march of 2020, and about the same timeline.
Wife is still feeling yucky, but has not had a fever over 101 or any of the horrible aches. Her biggest gripe is the loss of taste and steady headaches.
I certainly don't want to go through this every year, but I'm in good enough physical shape I think I could manage another round or two until the vaccines are studied more or other treatments are approved.

I have still never really had a bad or even moderate case of it, but it has rolled through my family pretty bad in recent weeks.
I have pushed my grandparents (hard to believe I still have them at my age) to start getting the shots and they have. One is 87 the other is 90. My father is 70 and he has had a shot too.
I'm healthier right now than I have been in many years so I will continue to roll with my natural immunity like you are. I'm not getting routine shots for this the rest of my life when I already have a 99.99% survival rate.
The wife just got a call from her doctor an they made her an appointment for the monoclonal antibody infusion on Friday and suggested I contact my doctor for one as well, so I guess I'm about to do that.

Same thing my mother and sister did.
I had them the day after I was diagnosed. As is usually the case with me something that works for practically everyone else hasn't appeared to have done me much good. I supposed it could be argued that they perhaps minimized my symptoms bu how would I know? All I know is this is day 9 and I feel worse than I did.
Luckily I haven't developed any breathing difficulties so maybe it helped in that regard but again how would I know.

She just finished her infusion, which they gave to her as 4 injections. Said it hurt like hell.

I still have major bruising from those 4 shots, they did hurt like hell. The only good thing about all this is I've lost 10-15 pounds of extra belly fat I wanted to lose. I'm sure it'll come right back but it's been nice while it's lasted. The only other symptom I've had that resembles hers is the fatigue. Oh, and as of yesterday I can't smell anything. But I can still taste stuff. Weird.

My appointment is tomorrow morning. Our doctors are in different counties and the hospital I'm going to for my treatment is doing the iv infusion which is fine by me. It will be interesting to see if one works better than the other, even though the wife will have a 24 hr head start on me.

Covid/Hospitalizations
Man that regeneron treatment is the shiznit! I actually slept through the night last night and woke up without a fever. My cough is lighter and the constant headache and body aches are all but gone.
I think the iv infusion works better than the injections under the skin, mostly cause the wife doesn't quite feel as good as I do and she had hers 24 hours before me.
If you catch this mess, go get tested and request this treatment immediately. I had my infusion about 36 hours after the positive test, though it was on day 6 of symptoms.
The hospital had a small room converted foe the treatments and could only fit 4 people at a time in there. Two of the people had been vaccinated and their first symptoms were diarrhea. The other unvaccinated person and I both had sudden fevers, she was a nurse and of course I'm married to one so both of us knew where we caught it. The nurses administering the treatment said most unvaxxed people knew where they contracted it, but said most vaxxed people were less sure.

No offense but there are ICU nurses like my wife who have absolute horror stories and have been working in a war zone environment off and on for a year and half. The overwhelming majority now are people who have decided not to get the vaccine... which is fine BTW I dont care if people do or dont. Im not in favor of the mandates and this person can make his choices based of his experiences.
Play whatever odds you want, its not so cut and dry though.

The odds are still well north of 99.9% survival rate for healthy people. It says a lot that so many people who work in that war zone still do not want it if they are healthy.
I certainly think some people should get it, I think my mother and grandmother should have got it based on their medical situation and age but did not. They got pretty bad sick in recent weeks but seem to be recovering now. Healthy young people should be free to say no. Its highly debatable if they need it at all.
Getting sick is a normal part of life.

By now, most of the unvaxxed have already had covid. So its a moot point for them.

RE: Covid/Hospitalizations
I am unvaxxed and just got over covid. It gave me double pneumonia. Was in the hospital for 5 days to get the antiviral medication and then released. Was only on 1.5L of o2 while at the hospital, 3L o2 on exertion at home, but only needed the o2 for a day and then quickly recovered from there. Praise God for the immune messengers (like a natural vaccine) I took. Things could have been way worse, especially with high temp and fast progression to double pneumonia, even though they stated my lungs sounded clear.
Just happy that now I have an awesome immune system against COVID. BTW, my uncle also got COVID, fully vaxxed and on 35L of o2. Getting better, but he has a long road right now.

A 27 yr old man who was the son of one of the hair stylists where my wife and daughter go listened to the old senile fool and his mandate about not being able to get employment and went and got the shot and died two days later. He had an enlarged heart. Another friend is dying as his heart is now at 30% and probably will not make the week after getting the covid shot two weeks ago. And finally our local barber who has had the shot died from covid this week. These are all real and recent.
I really wish people on here would just be honest and not political. Covid had little effect on me. For most the shot has had little effect on them as well. But the risk reward with no recourse is a joke and an embarrassment to our so called democracy.
Instead of pushing this shot which IS NOT by any means full proof our Doctors and Scientists need to go back to the drawing board and come up with something that is safer and will do as advertised.
