not taking it was in agreement with his personal doctor
I'm honestly shocked by that. I've seen more than one instance of doctors recommending it to patients with cardiac issues (I work for a dr's office). They don't seem to give a single fuck, they're just telling everyone to get it with no elaboration.
Either he's lucky as fuck and got one that isn't just a midwit prescription pad or doctors actually turn their brain on for rich people.
I have worked at a few offices as well. I refer to it as general vs specific. Generally, a vaccine is safe and keeps people safe. Specifically a person might have some health problems, or the vaccine will effect that person in a different way than expected. Most immunologists work off of that expectation, and put it into their theories. If 5 million people get the vaccine, 100 will have an adverse response to it.
So the doctor is working off of what is generally good advice vs what this specific patient needs. The doctor usually works off of what they expect things to be like, and general answers for everything. The more rare the disease the less he will expect it or even know it exists. This is why spinal issues and heart tissue problems are so rarely talked about, because the few people who can treat it are so rare, and thus have a small clientele.
I've seen patients with obvious problems, and the doctor believes it to be a thing, but the labs and others don't know how to recognize or deal with these problems, so they called him an idiot. I've straight up seen good doctors be called quacks because a lab couldn't recognize a problem.
So, the culture really pushes the general answer over the specific as much as possible.
I think in this case, someone with a degree in microbiology will have the knowledge to inform himself and educate his doctor. However, the bands response is the usual thing I have seen in medical circles.
Man, I have to be so generic here because of HIPPA regulations.
One of the main problems of human intelligence is people's inability to discern between those two. (others are our inability to accurately assess risk, and our tendency to see the world the way we want to see it instead of how it is)
Of course it can also be a problem if you prioritize the specific too much. You get the WebMD syndrome where everybody thinks they have the most unlikely dangerous diseases based on symptoms.
Most of the stuff on WebMd is fairly generic still. Wikipedia has been the sword that cuts both ways in my experience. WebMD just makes you think you have cancer.
Headache from sleeping wrong? Parkinson's.
I've seen some insane stuff with psych tests. Do you find yourself crying without reason? Out of boredom, so yes. Then I must have be depressed.
It's little better than those questionnaires people made up on late 90's websites.
Do you dream of flying? Sure. You are an alien/vampire/unicorn. Actually now that I've written this out, I'm starting to figure out where a lot of modern entertainment got its ideas from...
Having spoken and worked with some of the content writers from WebMD, their goal was to optimize for SEO first and foremost. They were quite good at that for a long time.
Yeah, it's actually fairly nice. The problem is people want the extreme and rare. They aren't willing to be honest about it.
However, every technology starts with crazies and criminals, so it's been fun watching stuff like this slowly grow to get better and help people find the diagnosis they need.
Or that one lady who was slightly anemic but quite pale, so she read up on the possible causes of anemia, visited the outpatient clinic and demanded to be treated with rituximab and cyclophosphamid for her "B cell lymphoma".
Honestly, the worst stories I have are from doctors who were diagnosing beyond their specialization. People with a fugue state that actually turned out to be a concussion, or not actually anemic, just Scottish.
I don't understand. Why can't you just demand everyone's medical history and treatment history at will?
I mean, that's totes legit, right? I have the right to not only demand your medical history, but also to mandate specific medical treatments for you because I'm such a good person look at my Pfizer tatoo.
Sounds like you're an alt-right terrorist. Medical histories should be corporate property for the good of everyone. I'm a good person look at my Pfizer tatoo.
I just want them to stop fucking saying "Mix and Match"
JFC. This shit is experimental as fuck as it is. DO NOT JUST START TAKING RANDOM TREATMENTS BECAUSE BEING CONCERNED WITH DRUG INTERACTIONS IS ANTI-SCIENCE SOMEHOW.
People do actually need to be taught how to think. Human nature is not to think, but to obey: You learn by emulating and copying and obeying your parents, your authority figures, your teachers, your societal norms. Do that, and you have a happy life, usually. Until you're not longer needed, at least.
"Thinking" is something that harms that dull and regressive ambrosia. Even among those who think, asking "why" instead of "how" is even more disruptive and harmful. Copernicus talked shit about how the world was in the universe, and everyone hated him for thinking. Hayley thought about math, and they mocked and mocked in return. Tesla died a cold, forever-alone virgin because he asked "is there a better way?".
Meanwhile Money made scads of his namesake by repeating what the people funding his research wanted to hear. Who cares how many millions his research has harmed?

I must be some sort of freak aberration because my parents are hardcore Mormon and I my favourite question was always "Why?"
dude I just saw a video on facebook that my sister in law posted where someone shows a Pez packet being put into the bottom of the dispenser and that somehow put the candy in the mechanism.... but I know for a fact that the inner sleeve of a Pez dispenser is solid plastic, not to mention that the video CUTS in the middle.... 99% of people in that comments section were like "Wow, I had no idea, all these years and i never knew"
People are fucking retarded and believe EVERYTHING they see
It's actually the main thing universities were supposed to teach historically. They haven't done a very good job of it in recent decades unfortunately, though I was lucky to have a program at my Uni focused on classical education.
My Christian end-time beliefs are reinforced, too. I didn't think the Anti-Christ could be supreme dictator over a world full off critically thinking and armed people who just want to be free and left alone and would defend themselves. Then I came to realize the world is not full of such people; in fact far from it.
I know people have been saying "we're in the end times" for centuries now and that they could make similar cases...but nothing in history matches this age of technology, communication and integration, or the difference in lifestyle between someone immersed in it and someone who walks away from it all.
Vaccine passports are the closest thing to the mark of the beast I've ever seen. I remember laughing at some fundies for thinking UPC barcodes were the mark of the beast. You'd have to apply the code to people, not products. Who would go along with that? Refuse business and access to money for people without the mark? There's no way you could enforce such oppressive rules... Oh, wait.
I was raised Mormon, but ive been an inactive member since 2006, been mainly agnostic since with the opinion that no religion has all the facts... but theres been shit happening the last 5 years that have uncanny similarities to what written in revelations
When your party is out of power, being punk means fighting the power. When your party is in power, being punk means doing dirty work that the power has to publicly disavow, but truly does support.
Unbelievable. 15 years and they ditch him for not taking the world's least-tested, 60% effective 'vaccine' that his doctor advised him against because of his medical history of Guillain-Barré Syndrome, an auto-immune disorder where the immune system attacks the nerves, that is typically trigged by... VIRUSES AND INJECTIONS.
No fucking shit his doctor advised against getting a vaccine for a virus he's already had once. Holy fuck.
The vaccine cult are no better than fucking witch doctors at this point.

bwahaha brilliant
no thats just women :P
I was accused of that just five minutes ago by DH.
HIPPA????
I don't understand. Why can't you just demand everyone's medical history and treatment history at will?
I mean, that's totes legit, right? I have the right to not only demand your medical history, but also to mandate specific medical treatments for you because I'm such a good person look at my Pfizer tatoo.
HIPPA is so strict I couldn't take a picture of my workspace for fear of even one bit of info being released.
Sounds like you're an alt-right terrorist. Medical histories should be corporate property for the good of everyone. I'm a good person look at my Pfizer tatoo.
I wouldn't be shocked if all the database people worked for Chinese investment companies.
It might help if you spelled HIPAA right...
The worst part about that is how many times I've spelled it wrong in emails.
I'm either dyslexic or the Bernstein Bears have attacked again.

They literally want people to die.
I think a lot are just scared of saying no and being labeled as an anti-vax doctor or something.
My mother had covid a few months back, it barely hurt her, she is super healthy for her 60s age, but she has a hereditary severe blood clot risk.
Doctor said she shouldn't get it, yet she is still in fear eventually being forced to.
i just saw my doctor last week and it didn't even come up. i'm sure it notes in my chart that i'm not jabbed.
It's rare but it happens, mine suggested I not get it due to an allergy concern.
I've realized over the course of this entire charade that only a very small percentage of the population thinks critically.

And there's a gulf the size of the Grand Canyon between "critical thinking" and "critical theory".

I had to look.
God people are retarded.

Not the only "band" to do something like this. It's amazing that they don't see how cringe this is.

I literally can’t even communicate with people in the matrix anymore.
They are so far gone, we have nothing to talk about. They are completely immersed in fear and propaganda - it is their entire existence.
