Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire COVID-19: The Science is NOT Settled

I know the Good Doctor has better things to do, I'd like to read his posts more often.

Thank you very much, Doc!!!

I wish others could write this coherently!! Very well written.

Good, solid info from the perspective of a front line, boots on the ground provider. Well done, Doc. We have some of the smartest minds in medicine really putting their shoulder into it and America's healthcare system is second to none. That puts me at ease.

There's a good chance that this thing comes around again in the fall. Southern hemisphere countries are just starting their winter and have + cases. Good evidence based science will hopefully have a handle on it by then.

Thanks DR. Stay safe and healthy.

At times like these what we always need is a levelheaded view and informed opinion. Much appreciate your efforts and time. Your a patriot

Good solid read.Many thanks for your time,Huntz

Nice to hear it straight. Thanks.

Thanks, Doc.

I copied and pasted to an email I sent to a couple of folks. Hope that's okay. I attributed to you.

Regards,
Bob.

Thank you, Doc! Best synopsis of where we are with this virus that I have read.

Wife and I are high risk, and have self isolated ourselves for more than 4 weeks now, pretty totally. Grandkids leave any fresh produce we need on the porch and I disinfect containers before opening, etc. I hunt, fish, do yard work and walks with wife in our mountains, or did till today when our governor shut down anything but walking with the herd on paved town trails.

I have wondered for weeks why we don't isolate at-risk folks like me and let everybody else carry on.

Thank you doctor. Finally some useful information. Much appreciated. Please stay healthy and safe.

Tx doc. My wife is a rural family practice doc.... she started doing telemedicine for the first time yesterday.... there is concern that the office staff will just quit in mass after a few more days of them trying to explain to sick elderly people how to use Facebook (or whatever it is they are trying). Not having enough personal protective gear is criminal. Jayne took the clear flip down face shield I use when casing bullets into work so the staff have that between them and the patients they prescreen out in the parking lot....

Everyone is stressed but the people who are "not emotionally well" in everyday life are loosing it. Beware of little old ladies packing claw hammers in their purse who go postal when they don't get to see the doc they want too.

interesting times.

Thank you for posting. I have been diligently reading and keeping up with the real information I have access to.

I too am on front lines working in a community pharmacy. Education has a huge part of my daily job.

Follow what the smart guys are saying and we will get through this.

Many thanks.

+1, He hit the nail on the head. Until we get widespread testing in place and get a handle on the numbers of people actually infected, we're driving blind.

Absolutely, and thanks for sharing your insight and expertise Doc.

Thanks Doc. Take care of yourself.

Thanks for taking ' the time, Doc!

Good read Doc, informative, reasoned and filled with common sense. All 3 of those traits are mostly absent in DC and the MSM. Simply put - we don't know what we don't know until we do know more about what we do know.

Hope to read more of your thoughts/experiences in the coming days and weeks. Don't be a stranger . . . although I do understand you are a tad bit busy in the ER.

Take care of your patients AND yourself and family . . .

Thank you, Doc Rocket, for taking the time and consideration to provide us with very valuable information. Best of health to you, your medical staff, and your wife.

Thanks Doc, excellent read, lengthy and no doubt time-consuming for you.

Appreciated!

Thank you for a very level headed explanation.
