    Yeah, I guess its a risk the anti-vaccine folks are willing to take.

    Yet, I wasn't willing to take that risk too and made sure my kids were vaccinated prior to allowing them to play with their kids. After awhile, it still made me nervous because those kids are most likely not vaccinated for other things beyond the two diseases I was worry about.

    If you have a kid, get them the chicken-pox vaccine. Because if they don't get chicken pox, they won't be able to transmit the shingles.

    In my opinion you are making the right decisions and have reasonable concerns. When nearly everyone is vaccinated, the risk to even the non-vaccinated decreases. Those parents who are not allowing their children to be vaccinated are shirking their social responsibilities.

    Hydroxychloroquine's efficacy in treating Covid is not a political question; it is a scientific question that's been answered to the satisfaction of most professionals in the medical field. It is pointless to argue it further. There will always be those, even in the medical racket, that are outliers in terms of their thinking. This is good!, but they have to have sound data and reasoning to back their renegade opinions or their colleagues will ignore them. What's not good is being sucked into nonsense that has its origin in social media.

    The most amazing thing is that there are still those suckers out there that haven't yet caught on to the unreliability of anything that comes out of trump's mouth. He says he is taking hydroxychloroquine, and there are people in this world who actually believe this!!!

    Use of bacteria phages has been commonly used as a research tool in biochemistry and molecular biology research labs for many many years.

    Yes because it hasn't been rigorously SCIENTIFICALLY proven effective.

    What has been rigorously proven is Chumpie's incompetence - by his own words and actions Fairy dust, fairy dust it is going disappear. If not gargle with Clorox. And on and on.

    The zinc thing is another unproven remedy. No doubt it comes from the finding that Zn++ is virustatic/virucidal in vitro at sufficient concentrations, thus the zinc gluconate lozenges sold to treat colds. Apparently they work to some extent if used at first signs of infection. But that's a topical application. The zinc+hydroxychloroquine is likely under controlled test somewhere in the world right now. See the NIH list of on-going covid therapy tests. I think it will have no efficacy internally against covid. But zinc lozenges at first exposure possibly of some value.

    Nope, proven by at least 5 doctors who actually using it. Not to mention statistically significant studies. I already posted them, check my older posts and watch them. Other studies are underway too.(also posted earlier)

    Your first and last sentences are contradicting each other. :)
