  3. Looks like Covid is picking up again. Friends and family in different states have it right now. Don't remember anybody I know getting it for several years.

    They will be OK as long as they are not among 1/3 of Americans that are smokers, overweight, diabetic, did not know they had cancer, high blood pressure, heart disease, cardiovascular disease or they live with someone that is immune system compromised.

    Also, Americas hospitals currently are not overwhelmed with Covid severe sick patients. Thus, they can get decent hospital care if their illness becomes severe and the hospital is properly staffed (many are not).

    Tell them not to get the jab while sick with Covid even if it is a mild illness….too many health problems will arise because the immune system will go crazy…basic immunology 101.

    Yet, I have recently met a few strangers while traveling and they said this is their 2nd infection (first infection was barely a cough and over a year ago)…this 2nd infection was much worst.

    Drink lots of water with those electrolytes packs they can buy from their local pharmacist/grocery store, immuno C pak, vitamin D are very healthful if it is a mild illness.

    A friend of mine that is a naturopathic medical doctor has been treating his patients with mild illness…Eucalyptus globulus, Thymus maroccanus, Zingiber officinale, Allium cepa, Olea europaea, and Allium sativumwere commonly used herbal remedies with the above vitamines and plenty of water with electrolytes…

    He does send his severely ill Covid patients to a regular hospital.

    By the way, my mom gets her medical herbs from her pharmacy or from some local herbal medicine store that sells health food products. She has never had Covid and is fully vaccinated/boosted.

    You are still regurgitating crap from twiiter (X).

    You and other Covidiots intentional took the interview out of context via editing out other important context info about the conversation…

    Although not surprised because you done it before several times in this thread. Also, I have corrected you before about the same issue…it is obvious now that you want to continue being ignorant. :D

    Here is the full context that you do not want others to know…

    Bourla talked about how omicron is more mild, but very infectious, posing a challenge for the vaccine. But the quote in the post leaves out important context about what he was discussing. He was referring to how well two doses of the vaccine protected specifically against infection by the omicron variant.​

    "We know that the two doses of the vaccine offer very limited protection, if any," he said. "The three doses, with the booster, they offer reasonable protection against hospitalization and deaths. Against deaths, I think very good, and less protection against infection."​

    In another interview the same day on CNBC, Bourla talked about the omicron wave and the need for better vaccine protection. He said Pfizer was working on a version of the vaccine that would offer "way, way better" protection against omicron, particularly against infections. He said the new vaccine would be available in March.​

    That new vaccine was reformulated to specifically be very effective against Omicron…it was release to the public soon after the interview.

    A Covid variant that typically causes mild illness except for 1/3 of the population who are immune compromise or has one of comorbidities (e.g. diabeties, obesity, high blood pressure, asthma, smoker, heart disease et cetera)…

    It is the 1/3 of the population who are at high risk for a severe illness from Omicron that results in hospitalization or death. :(

    The Omicron wave soon collapsed after a large portion of the global population was vaccinated with the new vaccine version.

    P.S. I am sorry that there is not a vaccine for intentional ignorance.

  10. Similar take:
    Toby Roger's nails it on X:

    "The Pharma Industrial Complex works like this: picture a 60-year-old woman. She has one million dollars in a 401(k) and another million dollars in equity in her house that she shares with her husband. If Pharma can convince this woman to get a Covid shot every year it has a chance to steal her entire net worth.

    The shot itself only generates about $100 in revenue for Pharma. But soon thereafter she develops an autoimmune disorder, myocarditis, or has a stroke. She's in and out of the hospital and sees an endless string of specialists who order hundreds of useless tests and prescribe a growing quantity of high-priced medicines. She slowly gets worse and now additional chronic conditions develop (diabetes, cancer, and/or dementia).

    At first her insurance covers some of the costs. Then the government picks up some costs. But as her health continues to deteriorate the family spends down their savings. They cash our her 401(k) and then her husband's as well. Eventually the husband sells the house to pay for more treatments that don't work.

    After a decade of illness she dies and the family says, "she received the best care." But now they are in debt with no assets. If some evil-doer had forced this family to work in a salt mine they could not have extracted nearly as much wealth as Pharma does by encouraging this woman to get the junk science Covid shots every year (along with junk science flu, RSV, pneumonia, and shingles shots).

    Now multiply this crime times the 200 million Americans who got the Covid shots and the 5.5 billion people around the world who have gotten Covid shots and you start to realize the enormity of what we are up against. This is the largest crime in human history, it is ongoing, and Pharma's goal is literally to steal the stored wealth of the entire industrialized world."
