Vaccinated and Dead Thread

[Cultellus]

Nothing is off topic or off limits on any thread that I start. NOTHING!

Your lack of cooperation is your cooperation. Thanks in advance.

I would imagine that statistically, the chances of dying after receiving a Covid vaccine are about the same as finding a Colin Powell Republican in the modern GOP.

RIP, General Powell.

Amen.

Lol. I can't believe he was in the Republican party as long as he was. He was pro abortion and affirmative action long before Trump. It is interesting to see the liberals showing so much love for someone at least partly responsible for George Bush's war crimes and starting the Iraq war.

damned Xanax.

Yeah, I really do wonder why Liberals would respect and admire Gen. Powell?

Powell's last assignment, from October 1989 to September 1993, was as the 12th chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, the highest military position in the Department of Defense … His civilian awards included the Presidential Medal of Freedom (twice), the Congressional Gold Medal, the Presidential Citizens Medal, the Secretary of State Distinguished Service Medal, and the Secretary of Energy Distinguished Service Medal. Several schools and other institutions were named in his honor, and he held honorary degrees from universities and colleges across the country. In 2016, while not a candidate for that year's election, he received three electoral votes from Washington for the office of President of the United States.

I remember hoping he’d run for President back in ‘95. At the time I thought he’d be a good middle-of-the-road guy and help shorten the gap between the Left a d Right. I wonder what that might’ve been like …

Did you mean to say he was pro choice?

So did I.

May you rest in peace, Gen. Powell.

Alternatively, Ajax, you can tell your friends and relatives to leave the de-worming meds for horses and take the vaccines. I'd probably compromise and say get 90% vaccination rates and drop all mask mandates.

One of the things that hurt the Left’s argument against taking Ivermectin is that it’s been a miracle drug that hundreds of millions, if not billions of people, have taken to combat parasitic infections:

The link above is an excellent breakout or breakdown of the drug and its beneficial uses. I’m all for people taking Ivermectin if prescribed by a physician. Granted, if they just get the shot the amount of people turning to Ivermectin to combat the Covid-19 virus would be vanishingly small.

The argument against using Ivermectin as a treatment for or prophylactic against COVID-19 has nothing to do with right or left. I don't think "the left" has ever said doctor's shouldn't prescribe Ivermectin to combat parasites and that patients shouldn't take it to treat parasites. The problem with Ivermectin is that, with respect to COVID-19, it's snake oil being promoted by a relatively small advocacy group of doctors to people who still haven't been vaccinated. The harm is that, instead of getting vaccinated and, if needed, seeking medical treatment, they are counting on snake oil to protect them and their families and friends. Ask your doctor if recommending Ivermectin in place of vaccination meets the medical standard of care.
