Man, sorry to hear. Hope they get you straightened out.
I was hospitalized with chest pains 2 weeks ago (I'm fine, false alarm) and the first question they asked me was did you just get vaccinated or get a booster? They kept asking over and over, the nursing supervisor said they are inundated with chest pain patients from the vax so I'm not surprised to hear your diagnosis. Get better!
The Covid ward at a hospital near us, and probably most across the country, is now used for Covid vaccine related issues. A nurse friend, who by the way is a major libby, said she can't say anything or she'll lose her job. She came down to visit us in the emergency room one late night & whispered it to us (I rushed my wife there with sever abdominal pain). I wouldn't believe it if I didn't hear her say it, because she was all about the vax & worked the Covid ward back then as well. This is a real thing.

We had to get the shot, chose the J&J, or they wouldn't do cancer treatment on my wife or let me in. We really regret getting the booster but was told we had to, only to be told a couple weeks later it was no longer required.

Since there's no major world wars maybe they need to thin the herd or it's all about the money. Either way it's fucked up.

PS: She said it's people with 4 or more shots that's in there, so we may have dodged a bullet

^^^ What a crock of shit! I am on several forums that include people with both long COVID and Vax injuries, and the people screwed up by the so called vaccine outnumber the LC people by at least 10-1. These doctors still pushing the “vaccine” are either ignorant or evil cock suckers.

I 100% believe you, I'm just happy they are admitting that there were some problems, they will be admitting more as time goes along

New report blasts government's COVID response, warns of repeating same mistakes​

The report offers ten lessons that must be learned to avoid the same mistakes from being repeated​

COVID-19 lockdowns, loss of social skills behind uptick in school violence: Psychotherapist Thomas Kersting

Psychotherapist Thomas Kersting sits down with Fox News Carley Shimkus to discuss how social media is leading to teen violence and a report claiming that COVID-19 led to an increase in school fights.
A new report has sharply criticized the government’s response to the coronavirus pandemic, writing that lockdowns, school closures and vaccine mandates were "catastrophic errors" resulting in many Americans losing faith in public health institutions.

The report, published this week by the non-profit Committee to Unleash Prosperity (CTUP), paints a damning indictment of the government’s role in the crisis and offers ten lessons that must be learned, to avoid the same mistakes from being repeated.

Some of the guidance includes halting all binding agreements or pledges to the World Health Organization (WHO), term limits for all senior health agency positions as well as limiting the powers of health agencies to make sure they are strictly advisory and do not have the power to set laws or mandates.

COVID LOCKDOWNS INCREASED ADHD RISK AMONG 10-YEAR-OLD CHILDREN, NEW STUDY FINDS

The paper, titled "COVID Lessons Learned A Retrospective After Four Years," states that granting unprecedented powers to public health agencies, many of which imposed strict limits on basic civil liberties, had little positive benefit and instead helped stoke fear among the public.

"Conventional wisdom pre-COVID was that communities respond best to pandemics when the normal social functioning of the community is least disrupted," the authors wrote. "During COVID, the public health establishment followed the opposite principle: they intentionally stoked and amplified fear, which overlaid enormous economic, social, educational and health harms on top of the harms of the virus itself."

The report was written by Scott Atlas, M.D., a senior fellow in health policy at the Hoover Institution and a member of the White House Coronavirus Task Force, Steve Hanke, Ph.D., a professor of applied economics at the Johns Hopkins University, Philip Kerpen, the president of the Committee to Unleash and Casey B. Mulligan, Ph.D., a professor in economics at the University of Chicago. It draws on various reports and research papers that studied the pandemic.

"SARS-CoV2 was a dangerous virus, but a calm, proportionate response would have applied the lessons from past influenza pandemics and used existing pandemic response plans. Instead, from the moment the virus was detected in America, the public health community and politicians spread an outsized message of fear and doom," the paper reads.

The group wrote that lockdowns did not work to substantially reduce deaths or stop viral circulation, and although they were timed to claim credit for declining waves of the virus, they "rarely had any discernable casual impact."

In reality, one of the results was that people’s health was negatively impacted as medical procedures were canceled, stoking fear, they wrote.

For instance, from April 2020 through the end of 2021, there were 171,000 non-COVID excess deaths, whereas there were none in Sweden, a country that did not lock down despite being heavily pressured to do so.

Mask mandate supporters

COVID IMPACTS: PEOPLE LOST TRACK OF TIME AS A RESULT OF PANDEMIC LOCKDOWNS, SAYS STUDY

"A much wiser strategy than issuing lockdown orders would have been to tell the American people the truth, stick to the facts, educate citizens about the balance of risks, and let individuals make their own decisions about whether to keep their businesses open, whether to socially isolate, attend church, send their children to school, and so on," the authors wrote.

School shutdowns caused dramatic and irrefutable damage to children, they wrote, with reports of poor learning, school dropouts, social isolation, mental illness, drug abuse, suicidal ideation and 300,000 cases of child abuse unreported in the spring of 2020.

Masks also had little or no value and were possibly harmful, they wrote, "amplifying fears by creating the irrational belief that an unmasked face presented a threat, causing conflict and division among citizens, and giving high-risk people the mistaken impression that masks were protective, potentially resulting in some people risking exposure who otherwise may not have."

They blasted the CDC for continuing to advise mask wearing "contrary to evidence . . . [and] undermining its credibility."

On an economic level, the lockdowns put over 49 million Americans out of work, citing Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) survey data. Unemployment benefits approved by Congress prolonged unemployment and associated economic underperformance, too.

The report also criticized the media, Big Tech, the academic science and public health community for stifling debate.

"Anthony Fauci, the head of the largest federal grantmaking entity, created an environment in which it was very difficult for most medical experts to break with the dominant narratives on lockdowns, masks, or overwhelmed hospitals," the report states.

"The National Institutes of Health (NIH) became the principal advocate of lockdown policies, but failed to run high-quality trials of repurposed drugs and non-pharmaceutical interventions."

Elsewhere, the report praised the Project Warp Speed for getting effective monoclonal antibody treatments and vaccines in record time, but it failed to assess their safety. The authors wrote that the mandates and associated pressure campaign were wrong and undermined informed consent.

The authors recommend that Congress and the states define by law "public health emergency" with strict limitations on powers conferred to the executives and time limits that require legislation to be extended.

"Crises are when checks and balances and well-functioning institutions are most needed – not when they should be discarded and decision-making outsourced to alleged experts like Francis Collins, who casually confessed to a completely incorrect decision calculus years later," they wrote

There is a percentage of the population that saw this coming, some of us had to deal with it in our household to some level. My daughter came to us to tell us that suicide had crossed her mind as a result of the social isolation from her friends. We immediately reached out to some of her friends parents who are also friends of ours and started to correct the social disruption. My daughter wasn't the only one.

Our daughter was in college at the time. The damage these idiots forced on our kids and their families will likely never be fully understood.
If you did not comply with the vaccine mandate the kids were ridiculed, intimidated, bullied and shamed by their schools, teachers and “friends”
Many, many conversations, sleepless nights were spent wondering how your kids are coping when they were hundreds or thousands of miles away.

Families were split and still are, employer and employee relations were stressed as well as company's and their clients.

Good to hear you had a child that was able to talk to her parents when things were rough, many don’t and think they have to internalize it and never seek help with tragic results.

Yes, we were fortunate to instill an open line of communication with our kids and that my daughter felt comfortable coming to us for help. She is doing fine now be she is nothing like she was pre-covid. They completely ruined an entire generation.

Our daughter was at NAU at the time. When they returned to in-person learning (voluntary) she stopped remote learning and attended every class that allowed her to. She never wore a mask and was ridiculed by professors, but she persisted. By the end of the school year she had a group of 10-15 students in each class who all sat together, without masks. Professors were livid but could do nothing. I'm proud of that kid!

Just a little too late.
How many people suffer or died because they blocked it?

I know people that it may have helped. At least one probably had the horse stuff on hand...and family members wouldn't let them use it because of statements like this.

Misleading the public for financial gains of cronies should be deemed manslaughter in some cases...but it won't.

My doctor just sent in a script for Ivermectin this past week to Rite Aid. The pharmacist refused to fill it and I had to have it sent to Walgreens. I went into Rite Aid and asked WTF they would not fill it. They told me that Ivermectin is not an approved treatment for my condition. These fucking pharmacist thinks it's okay to override a medical doctor for political reasons. Fucking bullshit!

I know several people that said they were either on their death bed or heading towards it.. They got the ivermectin / hydrochloriquin treatment and felt better in as quick as 24 hrs..

Todd Taylor the guy that does all the boating events called me from Glamis during Covid and said he was going to for sure die in the next two days and was willing to try anything at that point. He got his hands on the treatment they said didn't work and was literally up and walking around in a day and a half. I know a ton of people with that same story..

When I got covid and tested positive I took the stuff and honestly I have had colds that were worse.. not sure if it's because I took the medicine or maybe it just didn't affect me like others?

I had a friend that ended up in the hospital and they snuck it into him and he was getting better about to be released.. his kids came down with it so he passed the meds onto them. He ended up going septic due to them not changing a port and he passed away shortly after.. :(

They would not allow us to give it to Stacy's mom when she was in the hospital. She ended up passing.. I always wonder if that would've played differently if we could've gave it to her.

Sadly Dave there are many that were never given a chance. My MIL was one. She was not doing well. Once we were aware of it things went down hill fast. She started Ivermectin the day before she went into the hospital. I fought with the Dr’s to keep on the Ivermectin but they argued the next couple of days before she passed. Sadly they would not even let my wife go see her mother one last time. My wife is still crushed to this day 2+ years later. Sad time we are in for sure.

The sucky part is that now they say we didn’t need to do all those lockdowns. 😡

Unfortunately, we can't change the past. Not covid related, but when Pops was ill, he complained to me about some things he was feeling the day he died. A year later, I see an ad on TV for one of the meds he was on. The list of side-effects listed for "a potentially fatal reaction" were his. 17 years later, still feel like I should have taken him from there, or fought like hell for him. It may have changed things.

There's lots of things that eat at us as we get older. Things we wished we'd have done differently. They may not always be at the forefront of our thoughts, but they can creep up on us and bring us down quick. All we can do is try to learn from our past. It's set in stone, but tomorrow is still ours.

By a factor of 6………. 🤣
What other states will have the balls to admit this too? Wasn't it odd that the reported US death and infection rates were so much higher than other countries when we have better health and medicine? Lying pieces of $hit!

There was money involved - the CDC cut out all elective surgeries and even ones that were needed but not life threatening so the hospitals and mini surgery centers were all losing money due to lack of renting out the operating rooms, they had to fudge numbers to still stay solvent. The more I read about all this knee-jerk reactions the CDC and government did and school lock-downs, making kids rat out on their parents and neighbors, the stupidity of wearing a mask then sitting at a table then being able to take your mask off - it made no sense, it still pisses me off even more. I see the damage that it has done, people still wearing masks, maybe they have a medical condition or maybe the plandemic really set off the hypochondriacs and now they are stuck in paranoia mode. I hope the populace will never allow this government intrusion of our rights to happen again....and it was all politically motivated too.

There was money involved - the CDC cut out all elective surgeries and even ones that were needed but not life threatening so the hospitals and mini surgery centers were all losing money due to lack of renting out the operating rooms, they had to fudge numbers to still stay solvent. The more I read about all this knee-jerk reactions the CDC and government did and school lock-downs, making kids rat out on their parents and neighbors, the stupidity of wearing a mask then sitting at a table then being able to take your mask off - it made no sense, it still pisses me off even more. I see the damage that it has done, people still wearing masks, maybe they have a medical condition or maybe the plandemic really set off the hypochondriacs and now they are stuck in paranoia mode. I hope the populace will never allow this government intrusion of our rights to happen again....and it was all politically motivated too.
Exactly, I had a knee replacement postponed due to it. I fly a lot and still see people with masks in the airport. I want to shame them because they shamed me for not wearing one, but I don't. The best thing that happened lately was going to the Winternationals on Saturday with thousands of people, and I did not see one mask!

Yes, drag racers and their fans are not the most politically correct individuals, (thank God!), nor are they climate change believers , or covid vax advocates. And dollars to donuts I’d say 98% of them are Trump supporters. The 2% who aren’t are probably the ones working the concession stands and the fairground employees.

Bubba Wallace is part of that 2%
