Not gonna venture over to Texags, but I'm assuming this is the current outrage after Texas to the SEC.

They're gonna be so pissed to find out the administration provided some grass you can walk on.

A GoFundMe or a GoFuckYourself?  Because when it comes to that guy I'm picking the latter.

I'd likely contribute to a GoFuckYourself campaign in this case.

I'm 50+ and I haven't spent the night in a hospital since the day I was born. I would be scared to death to be in the hospital at this moment with COVID.  If you walk in to an ER today with COVID symptoms, there is a chance you're not ever walking out. 

My father in in the hospital for non-covid problems. It is a fucking nightmare and stressing us all out. My mom has a video of a guy raging pissed off, calling the staff cunts and what not. Given the level of care my dad has received, I understand the angry guy and do not feel any sympathy to the staff. Or to the staff who told my mom “ I don’t care.”

For those of you in the business, what is the best way to file a complaint that will actually matter?

As someone who's father just passed in skilled nursing care for what looks a hell of a lot like neglect (Travis Co ME office still investigating)... Let me know when you find out. Been fighting that fight for literally years.

The only complaint you could have filed in the past that would have mattered would have been a lawsuit but sadly tort reform has taken care of that so I’m sorry to say there’s not much you can do about it. They passed medical malpractice tort reform in Texas in 2003 and you and your family are just the latest victims of that since there is no accountability anymore. It you voted Republican in the past you likely unknowingly supported all of that so insurance company stock prices would go up to the benefit of their executives.

My anti-vaxx sister just told me not to worry because she knows over 75 people that have had Covid and they were all fine. Who the fuck knows that many people that have had Covid!?!  Either a) these are Facebook “friends” or b) she just hangs out with a ton of other anti-vaxxers that have spread this shit to god knows how many others. 
Good lord. I know maybe 20 and almost all are right wingers / not taking it serious. That may answer the question.

I seem to recall my wife’s gynecologist telling us to file some formal complaint against the hospital for poor care after our last kid. Doc said her complaints would not be heard, but a patient could do something. This was years ago, and my wife didn’t follow up.

This is after the tort reform lies.

The speed that stuff has fallen apart here in Lincoln has been shocking even with pretty decent vax rates in Lancaster Co. The Garth Brooks Stadium concert is cruising ahead for next week to supercharge things too.

This. I have little sympathy when an unrepentant dumbass catches a high stick from Gritty on his way to Hell.

But this guy realized his mistake and is doing a valuable service by using his own suffering as a lesson to others. He’s not doing some self-centered “Woe is me!” routine. He’s telling people: don’t be a dumbass like I was. Don’t listen to the stupid shit I did. Be better. Be smarter. Survive.

Maybe 5 people listen to him and get vaccinated. Maybe a dozen. Or maybe thousands. Whatever the number is, he’s using his own suffering to do something good for mankind and to try to correct his mistakes. Good on him.

As a society, we’ve grown too quick to condemn and too slow to forgive. Everyone makes mistakes. People grow when they’re encouraged to correct those mistakes. We should encourage them to do so, and applaud them when they do.

This dude is okay in my book. I hope he makes it through. And I hope he keeps preaching the gospel of vaccines for as long as it’s helpful.

Not surprisingly, us vaccinated are tired of this shit:

The findings expose a surreal gap between the views of the vaccinated and the unvaccinated, showing how tough getting to herd immunity could be — and providing new evidence that mandates could make a difference.

  • Vaccinated Americans overwhelmingly blame the unvaccinated as the central problem plus other ancillary factors.
  • The unvaccinated aren't so sure who to blame — and are far more likely to buy into conspiracy theories involving the media or President Biden.

Maybe this is a moment of weakness because we buried our pet today along with getting the news that my father has cancer while he is in a shitty hospital for blood clots in his lungs.

But I saw it as a man who is contrite. Who realized very late that he listened to the wrong people. Instead of silently coming to this realization, he decided to reach out with belabored effort to hope and plead that people take care of themselves and their families. Hoping that his regional accent will help with his bonafides and hope that someone, anyone will listen. This man put it out there. He won’t walk it back.

My brother nearly died from Covid. He denied it, acted like an ass, tried to shout down people and used all the Russian right wing talking points in the process. He would strut through the front of a restaurant and say “no thanks” when they asked him to mask up. He was proud of this behavior. His daughter, former SIL, grandson all got it. His wife and other daughters got it. His SIL family were racked by it. He nearly died. He was momentarily contrite. He even admitted it wasn’t a joke, it was rough and he was fucked up.

Afterwards, he started walking it back. He continues to prescribe cures, tell everyone about it and tell me, how it doesn’t harm children. He was irritated when I declined to allow his previously infected and non vaccinated kids to visit. My kids are not of age, his are. They consider themselves good people cause they vote R, got to church sometimes and post right wing hate/lies on the Internet. They think this makes them good citizens. It does not. That is my brother, I love him, and I hate him.

This man, is what I wish my brother could be. Willing to broadcast his fuck-up and try to help others. So to him, I have a heart. To the Republican fuckhead that died, I only feel for the cute kid.

Watching my son (9) silently helping me dig a grave and my daughters wails (7) broke me today. Even if the 4 yr old stepping on the body in the grave so he could try to help me bury the critter garnered a little chuckle.

Compassion isn't weakness.

I'm neither proud nor ashamed about how I feel regarding this person. Neither should you be. They're just honest feelings.

I hope all goes as well as it can with your father. I've taken that flight all the way to the ground, and it's hard.

Man, I really have to give y’all credit for fighting the good fight. I have checked out. Just fatigue from the stupidity has taken it out of me. That and fatigue from trying to find a job for over a year (finally landed something). I just don’t have the energy to read all the crazy stories of people who don’t believe in science. It’s exhausting dealing with these folks.

Congrats on the new job.  I also am starting something new back in my original industry (though to be fair, I have been doing the consulting gig, which has been ok).  

I am with you.  I just cannot give a shit anymore. I probably have PTSD from last Spring to be fair, but I just do not have it in me to be sympathetic anymore.

Thanks y’all.

I took my family to Florida for a vacation I didn’t know I could afford in the effort to keep things normal. Then the job came through. But then I saw that Harris county is back to Red. I saw the news on Twitter and I couldn’t bring myself to read the comments because I know it would be mentally exhausting. So much insanity out there right now.

I hope all of y’all are healthy and prosperous. Hook ‘em.

We're going to wait until the most vulnerable vaccinated start dying before we decide to push out the boosters, aren't we? 

 

Very frustrating.  There are a few items that a fairly clear consensus has developed around among immunologists and virologists:

1) 3rd shot mRNA boosters for immunocompromised, elderly, and people in nursing homes. France and Israel have been doing this for a while now. 

2) mRNA booster for people with one adenovirus vector vaccine shot. Widely used in France and Canada and UK for AZ.  No good reason to treat JNJ differently. 

3) Mixing mRNA regimens when necessary is fine.

 

The CDC hasn't come out with positive guidance on any of this stuff, and until they do physicians will be reluctant to recommend to their patients. Frustrating to be on the tail end of the science here. Few weeks here, few weeks there...cases and deaths add up.

I'm pretty resigned to a 3rd mRNA.  Not sure if I should be angling for Pfizer or Moderna -- I'm 2X Moderna at this point -- and I'm not sure when.  I'm about 3.5 months from shot #2.  I just don't see going into the fall w/o a booster, regardless of what the CDC says.

Welp, my dad is helping my grandma move from West Virginia to Texas this weekend. Flying from Victoria to Houston to Chicago to West Virginia (will unironically talk about how flying sucks afterwards even though he booked it himself).

3 day drive back in a Uhaul with my vaccinated grandma, but is going out of his way to stop at a place in Arkansas to eat that he liked when he was driving his rig.

I think it would take convincing from my son( seems like where you are at) that he truly didn't want us there, out of concern for our safety.

Congratulations on your graduation and I am very sorry y'all might have to celebrate it somewhere else.  Big time heart tugs...

Following up on the Tractor Supply picture of warning not to buy horse meds:

 

https://www.thedailybeast.com/demon-sperm-doctors-new-bogus-cure-has-covid-truthers-eating-horse-paste?ref=home

 

Quote

It’s not snake oil, literally. But as bogus COVID-19 miracle drugs go, horse paste comes pretty close.

As coronavirus infections rage among the unvaccinated, those suspicious of the shot are championing a new supposed COVID-19 cure. Thanks to a dubious study of ivermectin, a drug used in humans to treat parasites like scabies, cranks have seized on the drug as the new solution to coronavirus prevention and treatment.

 

Quote

Devotees have besieged pharmacists with prescriptions from shady online prescribers, forcing pharmacies to crack down and treat the antiparasitic drugs like opioids. As human-approved ivermectin prescriptions have been harder to come by, enthusiasts have taken to raiding rural tractor supply stores in search of ivermectin horse paste (packed with “apple flavor!”) and weighed the benefits of taking ivermectin “sheep drench” and a noromectin “injection for swine and cattle.”

 

 

Quote

“There is certainly a noticeable increase in calls to poison centers regarding ivermectin being misused,” a Texas-based poison control specialist, who requested anonymity due to concerns of repercussions, told The Daily Beast via email. “It’s clear that a vast majority are associated with a belief that it will prevent or treat COVID. That said, I do want to be careful not to be sensational—there’s no epidemic of ivermectin overdoses in hospitals, but it’s needless suffering given the lack of conclusive evidence of a benefit.”

 

Spoiler

All to treat and prevent a disease for which there’s a free and widely available vaccine.

In some textbook cases, Facebook users have recommended using the drug against doctors’ orders.

“Personally I haven’t had this situation, but if I did, I would sneak horse paste into the hospital and would rub it into the armpit myself to save my loved one,” a member of an ivermectin Facebook group advised another.

Like the Trumpist miracle cure hydroxychloroquine before it, the hype for ivermectin comes against the advice of the medical community, which has been skeptical of the drug’s purported benefits. Although ivermectin optimists point to a few trials of the drug on COVID patients, two of the flashiest studies have either been withdrawn or heavily criticized due to errors. A recent review of existing ivermectin studies by the medical research group Cochrane did not rule in the drug’s favor.

“Based on the current very low- to low-certainty evidence, we are uncertain about the efficacy and safety of ivermectin used to treat or prevent COVID-19,” the Cochrane report, released July 28 read. “The completed studies are small and few are considered high quality […] Overall, the reliable evidence available does not support the use of ivermectin for treatment or prevention of COVID-19 outside of well-designed randomized trials.” The report called for further randomized trials of ivermectin on COVID patients.

“Most overdoses will be mild and simply result in some gastrointestinal distress and maybe some drowsiness, but severe overdose can cause significant neurological toxicity,” the Texas poison control worker said. “The irony is, in a severe ivermectin overdose (which is rare, you really have to be slamming this stuff to achieve that) patients will end up needing to be intubated to protect their airway, meanwhile, a lot of them are taking the ivermectin to allegedly treat their COVID… to avoid ultimately being intubated and placed on a ventilator.”

As vaccine skeptics suck down tubes of horse paste and hit up poison control centers with calls, the FDA has patiently explained why people should not take medicine intended for livestock. Though they contain the same active ingredient approved for use in people, animal medications are “highly concentrated because they are used for large animals like horses and cows, which can weigh a lot more than we do” and as a result “Such high doses can be highly toxic in humans.”

That kind of scientific caution is hard to find on the internet, where users on Telegram, Facebook groups, and Amazon comments sections guide each other on how to find and use the drug and evangelize it to others.

Facebook groups offer support and answers to users who are confused, scared, and ignorant. When a poster has a question about how to convert horse doses to people doses, commenters are only too happy to provide suggestions. Their answers may prove a threat to your liver health, but they fill the vacuum of information for those committed to exploring the frontiers of COVID medical quackery.

Posters ask questions not readily answered by the legitimate medical community, like what size dose of the phoney miracle drug to give an 8-year old recently diagnosed with COVID-19. Group members respond with a chart that lists suggested doses in human-approved ivermectin tablets or “notches” for the markings on tubes of horse paste listed according to patient weight.

The chart, a frequently pasted image in Facebook groups touting the drug, is sourced to Gustavo Aguirre Chang, a Peruvian doctor and evangelist for ivermectin’s use in treating COVID-19.

On Amazon, where customers can buy horse paste ivermectin without a prescription, purchasers speak in coded reviews to extol the drug’s supposed benefits against COVID-19. “My ‘horse’ had no negative side effects, and now he tells me he feels like a million bucks and is now COVID free,” one customer wrote. “If you are intelligent enough to be able to weigh yourself and smart enough to do fractions you can do this safely” another assured readers.

Amazon has become so popular as a source for horse-to-human ivermectin that the purchases are starting to warp the company’s recommendation engines.

Amazon’s popularity as a backdoor for people to obtain Amazon’s recommendation systems are only too happy to push similar. show a suspicious number of customers purchased zinc, vitamin C, and quercetin—other popular (and bogus) coronavirus home remedies—alongside pulse oximeters, often purchased by those infected with COVID-19 to monitor their oxygen levels.

“This is actually the primary situation we get called about,” the Texas poison control worker said. “The big headache for poison control centers is that people are circumventing their physician and going to animal supply stores and acquiring ivermectin which can be purchased without a prescription with the understanding it’s for large animal veterinary use only. However, this form of ivermectin is a 1.87% paste [in delicious apple flavor]—it’s so concentrated because it’s formulated for 1,500-pound horses, not humans. Unless someone knows what they’re doing, it’s very easy to overdose on the paste.”

When horse ivermectin isn’t available, believers will scour the animal kingdom for other sources. On one forum, a European ivermectin fan complained that he could only find the drug in quantities approved for pet parrots, leading to an expensive cost-per-dosage. On Facebook, an ivermectin-curious woman shared a picture of “sheep drench,” asking if the ovine de-louser would help fight COVID-19. The bold label printed on the bottle warning “NOT SAFE OR APPROVED FOR HUMAN USE, WHICH COULD CAUSE SEVERE PERSONAL INJURY OR DEATH” in the image did little to deter curiosity.

Off-label ivermectin requests are also hitting legitimate pharmacies, to pharmacists’ displeasure.

One pharmacist, who has worked in Missouri and Illinois over the course of the pandemic, said they’d received approximately 10 ivermectin prescriptions in recent months: an uncommon number for a drug typically used to treat scabies or serious lice infestations in humans. About six of those 10 prescriptions raised red flags, like weirdly large dosages or doctors who canceled orders when questioned.

“If I could verify based on current dosage information for its available indications that the prescription appeared to be for a valid diagnosis I would dispense with no issue,” the pharmacist, who requested anonymity due to concerns of repercussions at work, told The Daily Beast. For the six unusual orders, the pharmacist called the prescriber. Half of those doctors never answered. Of the three that responded, “two canceled the prescription—one electronically and one verbally while on the phone. The third verbally confirmed it was for the treatment of acute COVID infection and did not deem to cancel it.”

The electronic cancellation came from a prescriber far out of state, in California.

An Arizona-based pharmacist told The Daily Beast that their pharmacy had been inundated with ivermectin prescriptions from America’s Frontline Doctors.

The group was founded in 2020 by Dr Simone Gold, currently awaiting trial on charges related to her alleged participation in the Jan. 6 insurrection, and pushed an anti-lockdown, pro-hydroxychloroquine agenda with the help of Dr. Stella Immanuel, the so-called “demon sperm” doctor who has professed a belief in aliens and “reptilian” overlords.

After spending much of the pandemic touting hydroxychloroquine, America’s Frontline Doctors now offers tele-health consults for $90 and directs prospective patients and visitors looking to get scripts for hydroxychloroquine and ivermectin filled to Ravkoo, an online pharmacy startup based in Florida.

“At the peak we were getting between 5-10 scripts per week. (Demon sperm ‘MD’ was calling them into our voicemail). Recently, it’s been 1-2 a month thankfully,” the Arizona pharmacist messaged The Daily Beast.

“Our biggest problem was when one other Rph [registered pharmacist] filled a script for it and the floodgates opened after that. Those being from the TX demon sperm MD (I forget her name, honestly). The office would never answer the phone when we called to question it but we would just write down the info and document it before we destroyed the rx.”

Although the pharmacist had been able to reason with would-be ivermectin patients, some colleagues had found themselves facing “ladies threatening to sue, being accused of overstepping our boundaries, etc,” the Arizona pharmacist said.

Pharmacies’ reluctance to fill dubious ivermectin scripts has prompted America’s Frontline Doctors to start recruiting plaintiffs for a lawsuit. The group published a plaintiff intake form on its website to screen for doctors and patients who’ve had pharmacies refuse to fill their ivermectin and hydroxychloroquine prescriptions.

Still, at least one customer changed their mind after learning more about the drug.

“Only one person I spoke with actually agreed to not wanting to pick it up after she told me her friend referred her to the telemedicine appointment,” the Arizona pharmacist said. “She had no idea what she was getting or that it was useless.”
