Horrifying work story about proning:


We have 5 patients on proning rotations on the floor today. Our proning schedule is 16 hours proned, 8 hours supined/side-lying. I was helping the team when one shared a story about a patient who was proned and was lying on his dick. It went ischemic (lost blood flow) and he had 2/3 of his dick and his nuts amputated. Helluva thing to wake up to after being sedated for days/weeks.

Goon yesterday with an uncle at Nintendo (I'll try and find the post) said mRNA vaccines damage the immune system of young kids

Extending the trial is an admittance of failure while they try and game the numbers

If that's true and millions of kids get the shot off-label - who's responsible when they all effectively have AIDS and aren't able to fight off infection for the rest of their lives?

this study in infant rhesus macaques didn't mention anything like that as a risk factor.

SARS-CoV-2 vaccines elicit durable immune responses in infant rhesus macaques

https://immunology.sciencemag.org/content/6/60/eabj3684

"We demonstrated that infant RMs mount strong and durable responses to mRNA-LNP and protein-based SARS-CoV-2 vaccines that were comparable to adults without adverse reactions. These promising results endorse clinical translation of SARS-CoV-2 vaccines to early-life populations. Even when most adults and adolescents have been vaccinated and herd immunity is achieved, globally about 140 million infants are born each year (71), and they will be naïve and susceptible to SARS-CoV-2 once passively transferred maternal Abs wane. Being cautiously optimistic, a multivalent SARS-CoV-2 vaccine effective against major circulating viral variants appears feasible and could become part of the standard pediatric vaccine program."

why does the ruling class think that allowing all US hospitals to fill up and allowing the US healthcare system to collapse is going to work out better for them in the long run? It doesn't seem like there's any reason why that would be the case. Am I just dumb? Why not avoid total collapse of the healthcare system instead?

I consider myself something of a horse paste sommelier and I recommend pairing the apple flavor with a white zin

this happened with the bleach drinking last year, but it's vexing that people think they can prevent covid by taking whatever poison one time and be good. looks like ivermectin has a half-life of 18 hours.



if people are serious about preventing covid, they would have to take the poison repeatedly.

The woman told investigators that she found the comments offensive and believed Cuomo would not have treated a man the same way."

My friend who doesn't want the vaccine is now concerned with ADE. I remember it being mentioned earlier in the thread (I think yesterday) but is there any information I may have missed? I'm not going to bother sharing it with him just for my own information.

short answer is that dengue is the classic example but it has tropism mainly for immune cells, while covid does not.

I'm not too familiar with biology so like... how? How can you have oxygen deprivation significant enough to damage your brain permanently but not have any outward signs that doctors notice? Like how can you be brain damaged but not cause outward symptoms that would necessitate a trip to the hospital or be measurable?

there was that video of the virus eating bat neurons for breakfast, and olfactory neuron death has been observed too. the virus itself killing neurons here and there will have subtle effects.
