The Infectious Nature of Misinformaton
ozimoron replied to Chomper Higgot's topic in COVID-19 Coronavirus
The Guardian did change their story but the doctor did not retract his comment. I see that the hospital did push back against his assertion that the ICU was overwhelmed but his statement that the ivermectin cases contributed to ICU pressure can't be disputed. The fact remains that there have been ivermectin cases admitted to ICU and that ICUs have been under pressure generally. Obviously, Maddow did jump on the story and unreasonably amplified the doctor's claim, I don't see any egregious lying going on here, just maybe some exaggeration. The fact remains that ivermectin is dangerous and has contributed to ICU pressure. Fox would never have changed their story. They never acknowledge error. -

While MSBNC and CNN are left biased they don't have the same reputation for flat out lying, distortions and omissions designed to mislead that characterizes Fox. Fox are egregious liers. wiki: -
We keep getting the same lies. The vaccine does NOT just limit symptoms, it reduces both acquisition and transmission of the virus. Furthermore, elderly vaccinated people are less protected than younger vaccinated people so keeping the virus away from them reduces their chances of dying, even if vaccinated.

I believe most are vaccinated anyway. It's all politics but when the chips are down they get vaccinated. Some have admitted as much. If Trump and co. hadn't gone in so hard on the anti vax stance this phenomenon, which is mainly prevalent among the American right, would never have existed. -
Everyone will be exposed vs. everyone will be infected?
ozimoron replied to Jingthing's topic in COVID-19 Coronavirus
yes, the salient point is that your body will generate antibodies against the virus. -

"What we can confirm is that we have seen a handful of ivermectin patients in our emergency rooms, to include INTEGRIS Grove Hospital. And while our hospitals are not filled with people who have taken ivermectin, such patients are adding to the congestion already cause by Covid-19 and other emergencies," it added. https://factcheck.afp.com/http%3A%2F%2Fdoc.afp.com%2F9MD9HX-1 -

Fox are lying as usual. An Oklahoma doctor has said overdoses of the anti-parasitic drug ivermectin, which many believe without evidence can prevent or cure Covid-19, are helping cause delays and problems for rural hospitals and ambulance services struggling to cope with the resurgent pandemic. He said the rise in cases of ivermectin misuse came as Oklahoma’s rural hospitals were already struggling to cope with a surge in Covid patients. “The [emergency rooms] are so backed up that gunshot victims were having hard times getting to facilities where they can get definitive care and be treated,” he told KFOR. McElyea told the Tulsa World a colleague was forced to send one severely ill Covid patient to a hospital in South Dakota, three states away to the north. “They had sat in a small hospital needing to be in an [intensive care unit] for several days, and that was the closest ICU that was available,” he said. https://www.theguardian.com/world/2021/sep/04/oklahoma-doctor-ivermectin-covid-coronavirus -

Really? Do you think nobody has any idea? As I said, pure speculation on your part. -

More worrying would be the 7 times that number who were unvaccinated. -

There's truth and lies. They are not equal and they are not just differences of opinion. -

There seems to be a flood of anti vaxxer zealots poising this board. It's like there's been a call to arms of some sort. What's that about? They need to be banned. -

Why do you feel the need to spread toxic garbage about the vaccine in an obvious attempt to deter others from getting it? Why not just decide not to get vaccinated and leave it at that? Do you have some religious or political conviction and compulsion to wander the world proselytizing about coronavirus vaccines? Are you just trolling people who naturally feel compelled to dispute your lies? -

No we don't, we are free to vilify them for endangering others. Your stance is that stuff is wrong until proven right is just indefensible. -

where's your evidence? Unless you can provide research or data supporting your contentions you are just spreading dangerous misinformation. You are totally uninformed, just conjecture. -

The sad is that the science has nothing to do with their attitude, it's all politics. The good is that we aren't likely to see them around Thailand for a while since many airlines are requiring vaccinations to fly and governments are placing onerous limitations on the un-vacinnated. -

It means nothing of the kind. Classic non sequiter. CV vaccines use several different technologies, ALL of which have been thoroughly tested.
