#JAILTOTHECHIEF- Shit Just Got Real

[Clara D.]

Isn't Azithromycin an antibiotic? Since when has an antibiotic ever been effective against a virus???

When the secondary problems of something like the flu involve secondary infections, in my case upper respiratory and sinus.

 

[Clara D.]

That is true. But you should only give someone an antibiotic when a bacterial infection is indicated. You don't give it as broad treatment for everyone whether they need it or not. That's how superbugs evolve.

And get drug-immune people like me. None of the penicillin derivatives do anything anymore.

So, what? We're still left with Boris and the Pope?

EDIT: Boris and the Pope...Amazon Prime series idea!

The huh thing is his poll numbers went UP. He is now at 55 percent.

It's not surprising. When people are afraid they often look to and bolster their leader (father figure) even if he is a complete buffoon (See GWB popularity after 9/11).

The 55% approval is/was just for his handling of the coronavirus epidemic. And it's just one poll.

55% is a failing grade.

2% while we have the hospital capacity to actually make the difference in saving the lives of those hit worst by it.

Untreated because hospitals are over capacity, I would expect that number could go higher.

Sure, I get it, resources are limited and in crisis triage means that some die so others may live. But ffs when it comes to profits over people, those that value money over human life should be the first ones deprived of both if anyone is going to be.

Yesterday, a hundred people died from the virus in the USA.

100 people dead on a single day.

Soon, it'll be 200, then 1000 and so on.

And when the hospital system collapses, the numbers will explode even more.

This is just the beginning.

These ghouls want people to sacrifice their elders in the name of their 401k or, truth be told, THEIR portfolio. I don't know how anyone can believe them when they claim to value the "sanctity of human life" ever again. Money is all they value.

ETA: In addition, the quoted 2.5% contains all people who who could potentially be at risk of dying, not just the elderly. He is saying that 2.5% of the population is expendable, young or old, to him at least, in the name of money.

 

[Kara Spengler]

What. The. Fuck.

They do realize those people are people right? Not to mention they are probably connected to people in power.
