...why would anyone stand in line for a test with no treatment available for the sickness?

"Uh, yeah- you're positive. You'd have been better off staying in bed, resting and resting instead of wasting your time waiting in line because there's jack shit we'll do for you".

If you feel shitty, you already know you're sick. What's the point? Big Pharma and the medical incentives don't give a shit until you're going into a hospital and then can rake $$$.


Waste of fucking time.

    It's the people who come in contact with someone, and then in order to work, need to show proof they are not The Vid positive. I think someone in the Max Carnage thread pointed out 60% of people who have tested positive have had no symptoms at all. Of course that leads to the strong potential for false positives but, but, yeah still.

    Total failure of the American medical bureaucracy. No therapeutics recommended outside of Tylenol and wait until your are so sick that your plunging oxygen levels require hospitalization. Wealthy individuals like Rogers or Rogan can find a friendly doctor and get an Ivermectin prescription (or the tablets), a prednisone prescription and a recommendation for taking zinc and Vitamin D. Plus some are waiting for 2 days after waiting hours for the test to get a result. The average Joe, gets nothing. Testing for "cases" was supposed to be the key and a year into the dementia patients administration and trillions spent, we have a shortage of a government controlled product (the tests). Burn the CDC to the ground and save the $8 billion a year.

    In this case, worth it.

    Mass formation psychosis has been fact checked. It's a myth.

    Also, the great toilet paper panic of 2020 was a reasonable and understandable action in response to the facts.

    Yes, irrational government top down policy and over involvement has created the issue. Same as always.

    Story related yesterday where a middle aged woman went to her Doc to discuss what their protocol would be if she got sick. "Nothing". You go home and if you get really sick, go to hospital and they will "treat" you.

    Woman eventually gets covid, nearly dies. She goes to see her Doc to let her know that she nearly died because she's a coward. Doc says if she were to treat she could lose her license. Again, lady said you're a coward. Doc starts to cry. Lady leaves and gets a new Doc. Mine told me he has no protocol. Go to hospital if you get really sick.

    This is all criminal. I hope someday down the road, people are on trial for their actions. Doc's making medical decisions to use meds off label has never been criminalized. They do it ALL THE TIME!

    Verapamil has been used as a prophylactic for cluster headaches. It's indicated for hypertension.

    I hope you realize how insane that sounds.

    And how does anyone else know if you were in contact with someone? JFC this whole thing has made me lose complete faith in our nation. What was left of the little faith I had.

    A virus so horrible you have no symptoms or symptoms resembling a cold but will wait in line for hours to see if you should stay home.

    What in the actual fuck.

    The insanity is real. If you're a HS BB player and a teammate tests positive, you have to quarantine. Then test negative multiple times before you can play. Even if you have ZERO symptoms.

    Oh it's not lost on me at all.

    It's why fake testing sites are popping up for a fee. Get tested. Get clean bill of health from fake testing site, go to work. Put food on your table, pay the rent, wash, rinse repeat.

    As for part two there is definitely also large swaths of the population who see it as their civic duty to be tested, even without symptoms. Also a large swath that uses the excuse of not being able to find a test or be positive to avoid work. I wouldn't say it if I haven't witnessed it.


    Almost verbatim conversation:

    Fren / Fam: I was with so and so the other day and they now have covid, so now I can't work until I get tested.

    Me: Did you get a rapid home test from the store?

    Fren / Fam: No, I can't get tested until next week.

    Me: Why next week? Couldn't you get a test now, find out and work?

    Fren / Fam: No, I might not test positive right away, so I need to wait.

    Me in my head: You lazy sack of shit.

    -Fin-


    Dream situation:

    @Swaye - Hey, if you have covid I'll lick you.

    Me - I totally have covid. cough cough.

    -Fin-

    I wonder what the street value is at the moment? I have some sitting around from the last time I was sick enough to see the doctor.

    Of course, lots of counterfeit sh*t coming from Amazon. But if so, guaranteed non-positive. Or go get a fren who is negative to take the test and use the full proof app. These guys need to work on a voting app for the nation under Bezos's honest eye.
