A little follow up on Stella and our "frontline doctors" from the BBC. Too bad Brietbart beat him to it. I`m sure Tucker Carlsen would have liked to have had these guys on first. :mrgreen:

Yeah, I can't wait to take the vaccine(s) provided by Bill Gates :lol: Also, I can't wait to participate in contact tracing :roll: Didn't Fauci say a couple days ago that we probably should be wearing goggles :lol: What's next :roll:

[quote="Pops"]Yes enjoy your weekend. I have to suffer being here surrounded by thousands of beautiful, desperate women. I only have one dick. The sacrifices I have to make for this brotherhood. There is no end in sight. I may Phuck myself to death if this keeps on until Gates can sell you a vaccine, Biden is President, Black lives don't matter anymore, the borders are open to anyone who wants to walk across, socialized medicine to rival the VA is initiated in the States, abortions are legal up and until the fetus is 3 years old if it is for the health of the mother, guns are outlawed completely and confiscated, the citizens of Chicago stop killing each other, all history books are burned and history is written to conform to the idea that we should be ashamed of America, all college loans are forgiven, social media giants, all news agencies, and news papers can censor whatever they choose and slant reporting anyway they wish with impunity, Christian religious services are declared illegal while it's okay to practice the Muslim faith. I can go on and on. What good does it do? Nobody really gives a shit. The government knows what is best for us and will take care of us. Problem is I still have two eyes. I believe what I see before I believe what someone tells me. If someone tells me they have a kayak that normally goes for $500 on sale for $59 like I read yesterday, I got to check this out. First thing I read upon googling the seller is multiple complaints about failure to deliver the product and big SCAM notifications abound. What if Google hid those reviews? Better yet, what if Google had people manufacture reviews praising the advertiser? What if the advertiser was paying Google for putting the add on the internet? See a conflict of interest? Censorship can be a dangerous thing. It is to the point that I am skeptical about all studies. I have seen some of the ones that said hydrocloroquine was useless. I looked closer and the way the medication was administered was completely different from the way the way the group of physicians that are being written off as quacks suggest. It matters little if you use a triple blind test if you are under absolutely different conditions. I stuck it up his ass after he died and he was still dead. One of the physicians was a nut, I agree. The others presented valid points but were all written off as useless. Seems funny that here in Costa Rica a drug that was widely prescribed for malaria. A disease that does exist here at times. Was completely taken off the market as soon as Donald Trump made the statement that it showed promise. Still the country announced for months that it was using this drug with success here. The deaths stayed very low. The CDC announced that a study had questioned the usefulness of the drug. Costa Rica discontinued. The study was then questioned as to who did it and what were the parameters of the study. A week later the CDC reversed it's position and Costa Rica announced that it was using the drug again with very good results. Who the Phuck am i suppose to believe? Fauci says the drug is of no use in treating covid a corona virus. He didn't say that when it was used to treat SARS, another corona virus.

How many of you have a problem listening to a doctor say that covid is not a problem for Ch*ldren? How many of you think that a doctor telling you that there has never been a confirmed case of a student passing the virus to a teacher is irrelevant? How man of you cannot believe that a labor union (teachers) would use this crisis to try to gain concessions? So if the union places demands on going back to work that include funding new programs and defunding the police you think that the safety of the teachers is what is stopping them from returning to work?

Still I am stuck here in Paradise with more pu*sy than I can care for in a hundred years. Wish you guys could help me out. Life's a bitch at times. See you when they stop fueling hysteria in the states. Fueling it there gives them justifications to in-act restrictions here. Got to keep everyone safe. Making Costa Rica look too good can't be allowed. All of you in the states. may question what are they doing different than in the States. Be safe.[/quote]


Pops, whatever you do, do not try that drinkin detergent thing. All us miserable mongers trapped here on the mainland appreciate that your overworked dick will keep the scene alive till reinforcements arrive. We know you're doin this for the team, and you are appreciated.

And of course, if Bill Gates came up with a vaccine, it would be such a huge risk. He's such a creep, that guy.

Why all this crazy talk of "being stuck in pu*sy prison" and "stuck on the mainland with no pu*sy"? I assume you are referring to pay for play, right? If so, do you realize that you can enter Mexico at Tijuana? Plenty of pay for play there as well. There are more options than Costa Rica.

This testing and insurance thing creates a few questions

Let's say your flight departs before midnight and arrives after midnight in Costa Rica which would push the test date to a third day, do they let you in?
Let's say the flight is delayed and you arrival date is now day three, do they let you in?
Your flight is cancelled and you can fly the next day and it now is day three, will they let you in?

If you have to leave the country prior to the insurance expiring, do you get the money back for the insurance you didn't use?
Maybe your outbound flight is cancelled or delayed, am I going to have to pay an extra day before leaving?
That Spirit flight leaves at 2am for FLL, does that count as a day?

Hopefully we'll get some answers shortly to the very real possibilities.

There is no more sure axiom in this life than is found in the statement "Ya can`t fix stupid." The good news is that you can often work around it, and better yet, remove it when possible.

“A Delta Air Lines flight returned to the gate last week after two travelers refused to wear masks or face coverings, a spokesperson for the airline confirmed to The Hill.

Flight 1227 was set to travel from Detroit to Atlanta on July 23, Delta spokeswoman Emma Kate Protis said, and after the delay the plane departed to its destination.

The two passengers who refused to wear a face mask or covering were removed from the flight....

Delta CEO Ed Bastian said last week that over 100 people have been added to the airline's no-fly list because they refused to wear a mask on a flight. ‘We've been steadily and rather aggressively stepping up our enforcement of the mask policy. You cannot board a Delta plane unless you have a mask on. If you board the plane and you insist on not wearing your mask, we will insist that you don’t fly Delta into the future. We already have over 100 people we've put on that list,’ Bastian told NBC.”

Experienced, well credentialed contagious disease specialists, and an overwhelming consensus of the same which we have carries far more credibility than some GP from Nebraska, Dr. Phil, Dr. Oz and a fundy preacher/doctor out of a Tx strip mall that writes about DNA from aliens. The same can be said when peer reviewed university laboratory studies demonstrating the efficiency of various types of masks are weighed against a strip mall quack`s unsubstantiated opinion. Declaring all information on these matters equally valid is foolishness and a copout from someone who lacks even midrange intelligence, honesty, or both.

PS Read the articles. I doubt any of the detractors have even opened the links. What are you afraid of? Discuss the articles. I have no more time for third rate barstool banter.
I read all the articles you referenced. I did not find any authored by disease specialists, and definitely not "well credentialed contagious disease specialists". Two of the links are for the same study. The study is something authored by people who are probably statisticians, none of whom have MD after their name. There are no credentials listed for the authors. The data they used is outdated, latest data being May 28, and most of the areas studied stopped before then. One link is Bill Gates giving medical advice. Another is from the Huffington Post, which has more bias against Trump than CNN and MSNBC combined. The lone article that gives unbiased, probably reliable data is a study by Florida Atlantic University regarding the effectiveness of different kinds of masks. It only studied how far droplets would carry, not the effects of prolonged use of masks. No where in the article does it say it was peer reviewed.

Here's my thing with hydroxychloroquine-it's already been on the market for about 55 yrs for malaria, lupus, rheumatoid arthritis, why can't it be prescribed off label for COVID-19? Because of the Z-pack that many say needs to be taken with it? that supposedly causes heart problems? Fine, prescribe Doxyclicline (a different type of antibiotic with it), as well as zinc. Maybe it doesn't work. I just can't believe how politicized medicine has become. You would swear that with all of the hysteria of hydroxychloroquine that it has killed 10 of thousands of people, nobody would ever prescribe something like that, no wait, opiates? It's the United States, I just don't understand that if a person speaks to his Dr. and requests to try a drug that's already on the market, they can't. So I guess hydroxychloroquine will no longer be prescribed for malaria, lupus and R arthritis since it's soooo deadly, right? The only reason that there is sooo much controversy over the drug is because Trump touted it. Meanwhile Big Pharma (and their bought off Doctors) will keep pushing Redesmevir and other outrageously priced "therapeutics". Not saying redesmevir doesn't work but it costs $3000 and is only available through transfusion. It's backed by Big Pharm Gilead science. There's a lot of money riding on some of these therapeutics.

I don't think the idea that prescribing something off label is necessarily the problem and this certainly is not killing hundreds or thousands of people. The problem is going out and declaring it to be a cure for something it's not. There are people who actually need the drug to treat conditions that it is effective against. When you tout something as a cure, then suddenly everyone rushes out to stockpile that product and the people who really need can't get the medicine. The other problem is people start to think that they can just take a pill and be fine and they stop following any other social practices to help slow the spread. It was an idea, we tried it, it doesn't work, let's move on.

Big pharma and our pill culture is another problem all to itself. It was here before covid and will still remain after. Unfortunately there's too much money to be made and I don't see that getting better soon.

Just get a military grade full face gas mask. I bought one on Amazon shortly after "it all went down".

You keep using the word "cure". I don't think they are saying it is a cure, just a drug that helps mitigate the symptoms and accelerate recovery in those who can be recovered. However I am not interested in a debate, just my $.02.

Cheers!

To be fair, I think he was trying to explain to a caller about why doctors and nurses in Covid 19 wards wear face shields, not recommending them for everyday use. To be honest, I didn't realize that the virus can actually enter the body through the eyes. I thought they wore the face shields in highly infectious areas solely in order to further prevent the virus from entering through the nose and mouth. So I found it pretty interesting, the link below goes over it in more detail.
