MN Hospital cuts ties with Vikings QB Kirk Cousins over anti-vax stance

[Thin Lizzy]

You know I like and respect you.
But , my primary care doc is a Morehead Med school grad - MD internist and strongly advised me to get a vax.

I spent my career teaching basic chemistry and physics, but my Doc knows 100x more about disease.

GThang, ask your doc and consider heeding their advice.  They know more then us , my friend

Of course, he advised you to do so. If he advised you not to get it he would put in his career in jeopardy. Just ask yourself which position would entail more risk?

Right now, the best argument for getting the vax has nothing to do with health. It’s so that  government might make your life a bit less miserable.

You're a smart guy , but I trust my primary care doc with my personal health.
They've been my doc for 20 years now and have earned that trust.

Sorry TL, but online GOV conspiracy theories don't seem as credible by comparison.

[G_Thang]

You guys can argue this any way you want.

My wife and I were  vaccinated by April . It was the most practical way to stay safe against Covid.

A yr from now, the Covid vaccine will become another required vaccine ( like polio, small pox, etc).
Having it will be common and we'll have put the Covid pandemic behind us.

Most posting against it on here, will have long moved on to other topics.

Young males developed heart conditions from the vaccines but were fine with ZERO complications and morality without them.  Great trade-off right there.  Let us see what buffoonery happens with young kids 5-7 yrs down the road from getting this bullshit when they are pretty much naturally immune to it since they are nothing more than vectors.  That means your old behind gets the vaccine and let them go about their business.

It doesn't matter what I personally do or post on this goofy forum.

I'm simply advising you to talk to your  primary care doc and heed their advice on the Covid Vax. That's it.

[Humble Narcissist]

The problem with the anti-vaxers is that they're not smart enough to see the big picture. Without the vaccine the medical system would get totally overwhelmed. People with treatable conditions are turned away, surgeries would get cancelled etc...

The "99% survival rate" is a myth.

You are right, it's way higher than 99% survival rate.  We only know how many people have had Covid if they were tested.  The vast majority of people have never been tested and so there are millions who have had Covid and never knew it.  That 99% survival rate is probably 99.999%.

It's laughable how sold these people are on this BS.

ZERO flu cases recorded for a year....DUH.

They are following the science!

If you filter out senior citizens, it’s essentially 100%. The median age in NYC is 35.

[Howard]

LOL, I don't care if you get a pic of Steve Austin saying don't get a vax , because Stone Cold said so.

None of us are medical experts .
I'm just some old retard posting in my piss stained Fruit-of-the-looms.

Hmmm, listen to my  "MD internist" doc of  20 years.

or

Heed the advice of some anonymous posters on getbig.com

Yeah, that's a tough call

You can't just "filter out" senior citizens to show the virus isn't dangerous. 

Classic anti-vax logic though.

[Vince G, CSN MFT]

The NFL is a lot more mainstream then MMA. The NFL is getting tough on getting players vaccinated.

I don't follow much MMA or UFC , but I suspect a higher % of fans are anti-vax? I dunno?

However, the Pentagon just required covid vaccines for the military .
Federal workers  now need  a covid vaccine and it's even required for Facebook staff in the bldg.

The FDA is about to give final use approval for the mRNA ( Pfizer and Moderna) vaccines.
That should occur by Sept and vaccine requirements for work , travel and store entry will increase.

A year from now, having a vaccine will be normal and the covid pandemic should be behind us all.
With the exception of a small % of zealots, "life" will move on for most people.

Why would a hospital NOT get rid of someone opposing them....think MCFLY

 I'm not clicking on any more of these posted links.

I got a vax with my wife back in April upon the advice of my doc.

If you or others don't want to...fine with me.   I've posted enough on this already .

No hard feelings and let's hope we all can put covid behind us soon.

[OAK]

I get that anti-vaxxers believe the vaccine is a conspiracy. I myself don't ALYWAYS totally trust the government.

But what's the story here?  Are all the governments around the world spending billions on the vaccine just for fun? I don't understand.

You’re just jerking yourself and acting like you did something other than fall in line.

Unfortunately, Covid and all of it's variants are here to stay for a longtime.  Even after it finally ends our generation will constantly talk about till they die like the Silent Generation talked about the Great Depression.

It’s a Michigan Hospital.

And if someone is basing  medical advice from a celebrity hospital endorsement they have bigger issues than deciding on vaccine safety.

Now he has a chance of meeting some 'dangerous doctors'!!!

More-head Med School?

That's funny, Howard

More-head Med School?

That's funny, Howard

I was thinking of getting some action with the wifey LOL.

typo , I meant " Morehouse Medical School" located in ATL

[Marty Champions]

At this point they are putting people's livelihoods on the line, so you need to give a better solution than disappointed.

huh??
Nothing is on the line , blame is always deferred

[IroNat]

When a doctor advises you he has to observe what is called "standard of care".

This protects him from lawsuit.

Morehouse Med School?

Really, Howard...was the doctor who went to Haiti Med School unavailable?

Can't you go to someone from a real med school like Harvard, Johns Hopkins, U. of Penn, or the U. of Rochester?

[GigantorX]

Can it even be considered a vaccine now?

[Zillotch]

Can it even be considered a vaccine now?

never has been, never will b... a 'vaccine'

covid will be the reason... the excuse – to get inside of your body.

the 'vaccine' - will introduce a host of extraordinarily bad technologies into your system that will fundamentally change what u r.
