Montana health officer says he was forced to resign after being blamed for death after denying Iverm

[RandySF]

Physician's assistant Nick Lawyer says that he was forced to resign from his position as the Sanders County health official after a man blamed him for his wife's death, revealed CBS News reporter David Begnaud.

According to Lawyer, the man is claiming that his wife was denied Ivermectin, Hydroxychloroquine and antibodies before she died from COVID-19.

Speaking to the county commissioners, the local man accused the commissioners of having their "strings" pulled by someone more powerful.

"Look around you," the man said to the commissioner meeting. "These people and God will be the ones judging you. You should thank God that we live in a Republic because if we lived in a Democracy, you would be pulled out of here and run up the flagpole. I have too much respect and love of country for that to happen. Commissioners Cox and Magera, there is still time for you to redeem yourselves. You can do the right thing for once in your lives and discharge this petty tyrant. His rules of protocol just cost my wife her life. It is personal now. Had she been given the right kind of medicine that has been proven to work like Ivermectin, Hydroxychloroquine, or the anti-body serum, she would be alive and well today. I had to watch her die slowly and in agony. You and your protocols killed her just as surely as you had shot her in the head."

1. The board used this as an excuse to get rid of him

[msongs]

2. the husband could have given wifey all those meds....at home. buy em at

the local swap meet or on ebay

[LisaL]

13. For sure.

If horse paste works, how is that anti-vaxxers are ending in ICUs?

[rickyhall]

3. Must be a better word than stupid somewhere.

[RainCaster]

4. Such a jackass

His wife died because she wouldn't get vaccinated, and now the doctor who wouldn't prescribe horse meds loses his job? That's fucked up.

[femmedem]

7. He wasn't even the doctor; he was a health officer who never treated the patient.

It's insanity that they fired him.

[Aristus]

5. "Republic, not a Democracy".

Yeah, we know where his head is...



I'm getting really tired of these clowns who think the name of their party has any relevancy other than political parties need names.

Oh, and Raw Story? It's Physician Assistant, not 'Physician's assistant.'

[viva la]

18. That's one of the tripes we've been hearing since Trump lost--

"This isn't a democracy! It's a republic!"

I don't think they know what they mean by that, except that maybe only republicans are allowed to be elected.

6. There is no way of fixing STUPID. Can't believe these magical cures people think work. n/t

8. Welcome to *rumpland.

I am in constant self isolation because of the assholes here. Looking for a new state to move to.

[Maru Kitteh]

15. It's not safe here anymore. I'm so worried about getting into an accident

or having any other health need. There simply are no beds and the hospital here has some of the WORST source control I've ever seen. I told Mr. Maru if anything happens to me get me transferred out of here if you have to put me in the back of the truck under a tarp and drive me yourself.

I was forced to quit badly needed physical therapy because they let clients exercise without any masks on! I don't see my primary any more than absolutely necessary (actually less). I haven't had any screenings other than those which can be done at home or offsite where I will not have to share small unventilated spaces with others or wait in waiting rooms.

We are thinking of selling and moving to Washington State.

[2naSalit]

16. I am seriously looking to pick a couple locations...

I have a pretty good idea of where I'd like to end up, go to those places and rent an apartment in one of them while I look for a house or property.

I just can't live here and watch it all turn to shit after all the effort I put into making it a better place. I've been defeated in the end and I have no energy to continue fighting. Sure I'll participate in civic stuff but I can't do the the more involved stuff anymore. And I just can't watch further decline.

I hope you make it to the place that fits best for your needs. I thought I would live here for the rest of my life but I guess not.

9. Yet another reason not to allow anti-vaxxers in to begin with. nt

10. Why didn't hubby want his wife taken care of by people he considers competent?

Put her under a doctor's care who will administer such 'medicines'.

Why didn't hubby want his wife taken care of by people he considers competent?

He just let his wife die instead of seeking medical care he trusted.

[Wingus Dingus]

11. These people are fucking insane. If they know medicine better than actual doctors

and other medical personnel, why are they going to the hospital? Just order this shit from Amazon or Petco or Tractor Supply and treat yourselves at home, you stupid fucks, and die there too while you're at it. Trumper types suddenly decided they can dictate what drugs are used in hospitals, the same way they decided they can force Congress to overturn an election with threats and violence.

[malaise]

14. It is M$Greedia that runs those big pharma ads every hour of the day

telling people to tell their doctors which drug they want to use. Apparently they tune out when all the side effects are being read.

[Wingus Dingus]

19. I think that's part of it too--like, why is it up to US to help choose

which med to go on, LOL.

[Bristlecone]

12. Always somebody else's fault. Lost cause

[uponit7771]

21. +1

[maxsolomon]

17. Surprisingly articulate Sovereign Citizen crackpottery.

Threat of physical violence? Check.

Baffling Gish Gallop of meaningless distinctions? Check.

Nick Lawyer is going to get an offer elsewhere. I suggest he choose somewhere besides fucking Sanders County.

Which is absolutely gorgeous big-sky MT country, BTW. Once underneath Glacial Lake Missoula.

20. "His rules of protocol just cost my wife her life." Nope. You didn't get vaxxed. That killed her.
