Colorado ICU Nurse: Great Percentage Of COVID Patients Still Dont Believe Virus Is Real, Blame Hospital For Illness: Theyre Calling You A Murderer
From the middle of the article:
Some believe the hospital is making them sick.
I cant breathe, she hears them say. Exactly. Thats because you have COVID. Well no I dont have COVID, thats not real. Ive had these conversations with people.
Then theres blame on the hospitals, doctors and nurses.
That its created by somebody else or created by the media or the government or what not. Ive never experienced that
There are those who just absolutely will deny it all the way until the moment when theyre no longer alive.

Every last one of the deniers... The liars... The anti-vaxers... Every one of them has the blood of many 10's of thousands on their hands.

(13,874 posts)This belongs in the conspiracy category.
You would need a lot of zeroes to show how much one person's Social Security is compared to either the total in the Trust Fund or the total obligation. There is no earmark on who any portion of funds belong to.
Let's not spread totally fabricated ideas. Other sites sometimes pick up threads here and reprint them to show how detached the "liberals" are from common sense.

(45,547 posts)and deaths in hospitals are officially recorded.
There has been some fraud where a person dies at home and the family hides it to keep collecting the checks until they get caught.
The GOP plan to steal Social Security will be to privatize it so their financial buddies can profit.

(17,711 posts)Crazy town ideas effectively in a decentralized, granular way. I mean all and each of us. Somehow we have to learn how ourselves to teach them how to reason.
Theres no amount of TV ads or national campaigns that are going to do it. They can help but we are the boots on the ground baby, one lost person at a time.
I dont know how but we have to. With as much love and lack of judgement as we can.

Bernardo de La Paz
(49,047 posts)They think that hospitals get a bonus of $39,000 if they call a case Covid even if it is not. That claim is very popular among the low-logic magats.
They think that doctors are eager to put patients on ventilators to kill them faster so they can get the money faster.
What they don't think through is that when an ICU bed is tied up for four weeks with a Covidiot on a ventilator, there are five or ten surgery patients that can't get surgery during that time because the ICU bed is not available as it should be in case there are surgical complications or complications after surgery.
.... beats the vacancy and sending the nurses home. Directions from
above are that all ICU beds will be filled and preferably by $11,000
or $39,000 Wuhan virus patients.

(49,047 posts)The FReaks at freerepublic.com (They like to capitalize the FR of any word beginning with fr).
They are proud to be deplorable and think they are so smart because they do their own "research" (follow social media bot links to dubious studies and lies and then apply logical fallacies and plain old stupidity).

(63,228 posts)Hes had covid patients screaming that they dont want him to touch them because hes vaccinated.
And a nurse reported that another patient, with an oxygen tube in her nose, insisted that she couldnt breathe because of her cloth mask.
They are fucking assholes and they deserve no more accommodation than any other person actively engaging in an attack on public health.

It is not mutually exclusive to be provax and conservative.

Trump appointed the guy who created the disease to run the cure?
Ii Love Trump, but he rushed a cure that is already worse than the disease.
The jab has become the weapon of war against our Liberty.
Now get the Hell off this Forum,.

(12,623 posts)On FB I posted my shot record from the military showing tetanus, flu, yellow fever, etc, shots and labeled it "my FIRST vaccine mandate". Some of the responses were just ridiculous.
Its gotten to where i have a list of people that just need to get a very bad case of this shit just to see how real it is. And i hate that i feel that way.

As of 11/30/21, if you remain unvaccinated and contract the virus....you are on your own, financially. Then they deniers/hoaxers can complain about how unfair it is that they have to pay for their stupidity.
Hortensis
(58,785 posts)We don't have it yet, of course, but
In 1996, the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act began prohibiting the use of health status in any group health insurance policy.
And the Affordable Care Act, passed in 2014, prevents insurers from pricing plans according to health with one exception: smoking status.
We've always cheered those protections/expansions of availability for people needing health coverage, of course, but we didn't foresee attempted RW takeover of the government using pandemic disease and sparking rebellion against vaccination.

(6,254 posts)reject the science should stand by their values and refuse to seek medical treatment at hospitals. They should go on google and research and pursue one of the many treatments recommended by such notable scientific heavyweights like Joe Rogan and Aaron Rodgers. But of course, they have no shame and tweet pray for me on the way to the hospital. Gotta give it to the real anti-vaccine zealots for they will go down with the ship and die while tweeting and posting on FB that the pandemic is a hoax. At least they have the courage of their convictions. I bet if Covid resulted in a bloody death like Ebola or produced visible signs like smallpox the repugnant rw anti-vaccine would take their guns and be first in line to get the jab. The problem is that the public has not seen people killed by Covid. The media must show what Covid does to the body in death. My mother died of sepsis many years ago and I was shocked to see her lifeless body bloated beyond recognition lying on her hospital bed.

(765 posts)We need two types of hospitals, one for the vaccinated and one for the un-vaccinated. The un-vaccinated one, can be run by the patients families, so they won't be murdered by the doctors. Makes sense to me.
