OTC ibuprofen? hmm interesting. their flu must've been mild. Originally Posted by dilbert firestorm

(obviously no comorbidities) But yeah, Ibuprofen for 2 days. I was hoping to get info into so many other options. I am meeting them next week for lunch. Couldn't this week because of my own schedule. So stay tuned...

In the meantime, stay tuned the WHO fear-porn engine about the dreaded and predicted child maiming disease that maybe, might be coming his fall - just in case we all actually survive this B.S. on a slim 99.8% likelihood.

Pump up the volume. Pump up the volume. Dance. Dance. Dance.

Yes oeb , I'm not trying to give you a hard time on this.

But doctor offices and hospitals would not disappear and us be herded into VA clinics with Medicare for all.

They would continue to exist and operate just as they do now.
Costs would actually go down due to relieving providers and hospitals from egregious protocols interjected into the process by the Insurance and Pharmaceutical Companies.

If you look at a pie graph of all the premiums paid in by the private sector plus all the federal dollars paid into the system, some of those dollars are disbursed to the ones who actually provide or deliver the care.The ones who do the work.

There is then a Huge piece of pie left for the Ins Co. and Pharmaceutical Co.

The intimation that our system would turn to shit is a scare tactic ruse by Big Ins if we were not to keep them.

Most more advanced countries (although way smaller than us) have it where all Healthcare dollars go to actual care.

If you do not see anything, then you are already dead from the neck up at least (most likely scenario)
If you do, that's a DPST. (still highly likely scenario)

Hey I checked up on that Medicare / VA thing myself.

According to my sources you are incorrect.With Medicare ; you can go to any doctor,clinic,or hospital that accepts it.

I think you are the one in denial.
I think you are the one guilty of deflection.

And I don't think you guys can articulate what DPST is or means.

How Would You Feel About A Nationwide Mask Mandate That Forced You To Wear A Mask In Public At All Times?

I think that this headline is going to upset a lot of people, and it should.

Personally, I believe that if you want to wear a mask you should be able to wear a mask, but if you don’t want to wear a mask you should not be forced to wear one.

And I also believe that we should be respectful of the choices that others have made...

...On Thursday, Joe Biden stated that he supports “mandatory mask wearing” in every U.S. state…

Joe Biden, the presumptive Democratic nominee for president, called for a nationwide mask mandate on Thursday, drawing a sharp contrast with President Donald Trump, who rarely wears a mask himself and opposes such mandates.

“Every single American should be wearing a mask when they’re outside for the next three months at a minimum,” Biden said at a press appearance in Wilmington, Delaware. “Every governor should mandate mandatory mask wearing. The estimates by the experts are that it will save over 40,000 lives in the next three months. Forty thousand lives, if people act responsibly.”...


44 sec, Two men, not wearing masks, talk about wearing masks

2 min; Awesome demonstration by a board certified Doctor demonstrating the effects on aerosols with most common types of masks on the market. Probably need to watch it soon, before the NOT board certified Doctors at YouTub censor it.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h8upEg-bEJ8

Oops, too late. Well... it basically shows how foolish one is to believe the idiocy of wearing a mask to protect others from aerosols. But you have been protected from seeing it, for your own good and of course, for the children...

Nobody knows what medicare for all entails. I smell an election bait n switch.

I agree Dilbert. "Again, if masks are so effective, yours should do just fine.", obviously indicates a fundamental misunderstanding of use of masks. I won't rehash other threads, but basically YOUR mask protects OTHERS....OTHER people's mask protect YOU. It's not that hard to understand, but some people don't understand the concept. Now, if you don't want to accept the responsibility to protect others with minimal effort, then that's your problem. But please don't confuse others with erroneous statements.
