    Maybe we could make human ivermectin available OTC to help rid us of Darwinian loose ends….?

    WTF is babesiosis??? Should a rumor that ivermectin protects one from it be started? Gotta love that Nature just never stops trying to eradicate us (can't really blamer Her tho).

    All I know is that the question of ever having been diagnosed with babesiosis is always asked on the Red Cross blood donation questionnaire.

    Stab them with a rusty nail…tetanus is a terrible way to go.  Unless you are vaccinated.

    A friendly reminder. If you haven't had a tetanus shot in ten years, see your doctor and get vaccinated. Had mine on 7/17/22 so I should be good. I had to wait for the shot because it is not commonly stocked around here.

    I hear first hand stories from SWMBO from patients with tetanus, for example one older guy who worked at Home Depot and accidentally shot a Brad nail into his leg.  He lost two legs and an arm and was in excruciating pain.  

    I got a small puncture today dumpster diving for cypress…. Typical for me, I lost count of how many vaccinations I’ve received for tetanus.

    Interesting thread on the state of play in the US from the White House’s Covid coordinator:



    The big takeaway for me: get vaccinated and get treated when you’re infected, and your chances of serious illness from covid are low.

    You should try that line on ladies at the bar.  I bet it works like a champ, instead of sounding completely insane like it does here.

    As more data is collected, scientific opinion tends to evolve.  But even the first set of data around the MRNA vaccine indicated 95% effectiveness, and this was widely reported in the popular press.  Anyone who can think or has some iota of knowledge about immunology can parse what that means.  

    The notion that the vaccines weren't a lot more helpful than not is kind of nuts.  But you do you I guess.

    Saying the opinion evolved is not truthful. They we exposed. What we are actually learning is just how badly. 
    I feel like you're about to blow some truths wide open, expose it all.  Go for it brother, I'm sick of all the scientists and doctors that studied science and logic and evidence generation, analysis and critical thinking for years, just to trade their ethics and morals for a few coins.

    Drop some sick sources on us, straight into my veins.

    ^^^^ That's it??? And many more who eschewed the MRNA vaccine permanently closed their eyes for the eternal rest.  So there's that.

    There’s tons of evidence this shot was not what was promised. Many deaths and health issues have come to light. Some have opened their eyes. 
    WOW!!  I DIDN'T KNOW THAT!!!  COVID VACCINES ARE 200 TIMES SAFER THAN ASPIRIN, NOW I THINK I SHOULD STOP TAKING ASPIRIN!!!!  OMG! OMG!

    Don't panic when you open your eyes and see all the brown stuff. Just ask someone to help you pull your head out of your arse, and you should be able to see better.  Come to think of it, may need a few people.

    You snowballs are walking through life with a blindfold on. There are countless stories of the large number of people that died from the Covid vax. There is report after report of young healthy kids and younger adults dropping dead. 
    There are also countless stories of little green men, and reports of people being kidnapped by them and having anal probes inserted into them.  Those are also on Facebook, where you seem to get most of your information.  I suppose you believe those stories too?

There may not be a dumber box of rocks than the ones that post on this forum. 
    The "countless stories" you refer to, are not nearly as many as the counted stories of unvaccinated people who died vs. vaccinated people who... didn't.

    No doubt Wildman was an acolyte of Dr. Sherri Tenpenny who claimed that the Covid vax makes people magnetic (among many other valid scientific cray cray   ideas).

    Sadly, the good Dr. lost her license to practice medicine last week so I reckon Wildman will be searching for someone else to follow.
