Notice from local hospital ?

1. There were fetal cell lines when

asprin was developed (from birch bark, I believe).in 1897?

[mucifer]

3. might be the way it's compounded or something

[LiberalArkie]

4. Probably the modern aspirin, probably do not cut down a lot of birch trees any more.

The fetal cell lines from 1970(?) are used to test the chemical instead of using animals. At least I read that in the Holiday Inn Express I stayed at once.

[Treefrog]

5. I thought it was willow bark?

Not sure.

[marybourg]

7. Yes, you're right.

[jaxexpat]

11. We had a huge weeping willow in our yard when I was a child.

I remember how the taste of the willow leaves and stems reminded me of the taste of aspirin. Not a particularly delicious memory, really. Coal tasted better but not as good as fescue or soybeans straight out of the pod. Hey, in order to be a man with refined taste, a boy must taste things.

I also remember my mother occasionally requesting if I might be so good as to retrieve, for her, a switch from that same tree.

21. Appletree switches also worked pretty well for my mom

God I miss her

26. For external application? PRN?

For external application? PRN?

27. I'd think it works as well systemically.

Rumor is, "the Indians" made a kind of tea.

[yonder]

10. I thought it was bark from Willow trees?

[paleotn]

15. For much of the list...modern testing, not development.

[NutmegYankee]

24. Modern Aspirin is synthetically made.

There are tests of each modern version from a manufacturer.

[soldierant]

28. Something in the willow family. "Salicylic" refers mto willow.

But regardless - they're no longer cutting down or skinning trees

[mshasta]

2. Lol

Idiots

[mopinko]

6. sounds like bs to me.

most of that list predates stem cells tech.

[LiberalArkie]

8. Here is an old article. They probably have to test toxicity any time an existing drug is

is changed, like from tablet to time-release to capsule etc.

16. Spelling and Grammer are oddly inconsistent in that document.

If I got that in an email I would say it was phishing spam.

Just saying.

[Donkees]

9. "Common over-the-counter medicines tested on HEK-293 cells or derivative cell lines"

Smells like bs to me. Unless there's a link to this on the Conway site, I'm treating it like most of the nonsense on the web.

I spent a few minutes with google, and nothing like this turned up.

I'll look forward to a real link

[paleotn]

13. Testing. Not development.

19. Conway Regional Health System

I wasn't calling bs on the substance of the memo, just that this image appears to be a forgery and not something Conway Regional Health System (which exists) would have written in the manner represented.

There's plenty of real-ammo to use against the anti-vaccine idiots, it's sad to see fakes like this.

Perhaps I should have been more specific and said I that I look forward to this memo from a URL that starts with ... https://www.conwayregional.org/

[NQAS]

23. I truthfully affirm...

Sounds sovereign citizenish to me. Something written by someone pretending to be a lawyer.

[PatSeg]

29. Thanks for the patheos link

That is very helpful.

[paleotn]

14. Hypocrisy is religion's middle name.

In the face of a global pandemic that could kill millions, I don't give two donkey shits about their "sincerely held beliefs" in sky daddy's, Mount Olympus or any of that bullshit.

[Walleye]

22. ☝️Ditto

[Tommymac]

17. Take with a grain of salt and call me in the morning.

That document is suspicious - lots of grammer issues at the least. Reads like Rudy wrote it.

[NurseJackie]

18. Yes, the grammar issues stuck out for me as well.

I'm suspicious.

[UGADawg]

20. The Atlanta Catholic Bishop has ordered priests to............

not give religious exemption to the vaccine.

[PatSeg]

25. Oh thank you!

I was looking for something like this yesterday, when someone claimed aborted fetuses were used in the COVID-19 vaccines. This is perfect.
