The most vaccinated state in the US ladies and ********:

Vermont Health Department spokesman Ben Truman told the Vermont Daily Chronicle last week that of all Covid-19 deaths in the state for the month of September,

“Eight of the 33 deaths were not vaccinated.”

I have no idea who that is. It is funny how you guys say "the media is lying, unless it's the guys I like"

I don't know why I even look at this thread anymore. "Anything that doesn't agree with my world view is a lie."

Hopefully Brainy won't ban me again for saying that.

Why would I can you for saying that. you didn't call me retarded yet again...


But the BBC article you mentioned, debunking IVM, it's a pretty weak article. "Some studies were flawed or possibly faked, so therefore IVM is debunked." Get real.

https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34513523/

Here's a decent study, with a real control group. And they didn't even tell them after the fact and ruin the control group and long-term studies like Pfizer and Moderna did by giving the control the vaccine...

But we should keep discounting and vilifying a completely harmless, cheap, and potentially effective treatment because the alternative of sedating you, telling your family you need a ventilator, and then starting a Remdesivir protocol -- denying any alternative treatments -- until your kidneys will fail or you run out of oxygen and you die seems to be the better treatment!

AND Remdesivir has also failed trials and "The World Health Organization's (WHO's) Solidarity trial showed that remdesivir does not reduce mortality or the time COVID-19 patients take to recover."

So
Remdesivir -- extending your same logic -- has also been debunked.

Why are hospitals still using it? Why isn't the MSM vilifying it? Why aren't we calling it a negative fallacious name? Could it be related to the unusual circumstances in which is was approved for use? Maybe money/deals has a lot more to do with it than effectiveness?

apparently legalizing crime has an impact:

https://townhall.com/tipsheet/landon...inues-n2597352

Walgreens announced Tuesday that it is shutting down five additional stores because of the continued retail theft that is plaguing the city.

"Due to ongoing organized retail crime, we have made the difficult decision to close five stores across San Francisco," a Walgreens spokesperson said in a statement to FOX Business. "Each store will transfer prescriptions to a nearby Walgreens location within a mile radius and we expect to place the stores’ team members in other nearby locations."

"Organized retail crime continues to be a challenge facing retailers across San Francisco, and we are not immune to that," the statement continued. "Retail theft across our San Francisco stores has continued to increase in the past few months to five times our chain average. During this time to help combat this issue, we increased our investments in security measures in stores across the city to 46 times our chain average in an effort to provide a safe environment."

Walgreens has closed at least 10 stores in San Francisco since the start of 2019, the San Francisco Gate reported.

The California Retailers Association reported earlier this year that San Francisco, Los Angeles and Sacramento all rank in the top 10 cities in the country for organized retail crime.

And while critics attribute the state's high rate of retail theft to a referendum passed in 2014 that downgraded property theft to a misdemeanor if its value does not exceed $950, other states also struggle to mitigate the threat of retail crime.

A father and daughter in Georgia were sentenced Tuesday after they were found to have made millions of dollars in profits from stolen merchandise in recent years.

it’s the useful idiots that bug me. The people who stand up for Big Pharma, flip-flopping Fauci, Central Planning and especially a media-industrial complex that censors the public and medical professionals alike.

You’d think a short MT ban would show them what it’s like to be on the other side.

Not a fan of the "Le Resistance"?


I think the irony of the ban was lot unfortunately.

It has been many years since I watched any network TV. But I recently got hooked on a series, and have been binge watching old episodes on Hulu. Since I am cheap, I have to suffer through commercials. Last night, I started keeping track.

Fully 2/3 of all the ads aired were for prescription drugs. You know, the kind that treat a minor condition, yet have side effects like stroke, liver damage and death. Ask your doctor if Fuckedupra is right for you.

Follow the money. It's all about the money.

The Story of Ivermectin

What's discussed in this video was prevented for use in America by Google, Facebook, Twitter, the FDA, WHO, and especially Big Pharma and their political ****** in Washington.

To me, this is one of the most glaring aspects of the whole Ivermectin scam. For those who are so adamant that it is completely ineffective, please explain exactly how and who stands to profit from its advocacy? There is no money to be made, there is no incentive to manipulate it, unless you believe it's just a massive flat-earther denial conspiracy here in the states (which also happens to be supported by many governments worldwide). It is literally the antithesis of the case of those advocating for its rejection.

India actually used Ivermectin along with vitamins in a "secret" drug pack for some of their population. They kept the drug contents secret, and I can only think that the politicization of this drug is why they didn't share the contents. Not surprisingly, Covid numbers plummeted. HCQ and Ivermectin were used early as a prophylaxis for their health care workers in India, and since both have few (if any) side effects when used properly, no harm no foul.

Other than loss of $24 billion annually in boosters, what exactly is the downside for prescribing it?
