Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire Lost my Best Hunting Partner and Friend to Covid

Mike and I joked about the "Trump" steroid because the first gave him prednisone. I assure I am just a guy who lost his friend. Dont you think we joked about stuff why he was sick?

Next cliche, right on cue.

You're just a 'reader'........but suddenly come here for a group hug concerning 'deadly' Covid?

He’s certainly got the foreigner syntax down pat.

That Dexa whatever steroid they gave Trump is six times stronger than prednisone..I have taken prednisone alot thanks to some nasty hives nothing else worked on...The thing I find the most disgusting is how some doctors get it right and others put on a bandage and send you home..That's exactly what happened with my friend and pneumonia.Had they got it right the first time..Who knows huh..It happens all to much..

Well If I could delete this thread I would not a good way to honor my friend. I was just venting. I did not know it would start a political war. RIP MIKE.

Yup..Not a good place for sympathy..It's like a biker bar,if you enter,you better be ready to fight..LOL

Who would honor their friend by dry humpin his corpse in order ta justify bolo-19 propaganda?

The CV-19 has a lower death rate than a BAD flu season.

That's FACT, and math does not lie, nor does Physics, nor does the proven treatments doctors have posted across the world.

Stick to playing with your wood.

LOL

If only he had eaten a bowl of chicken noodle soup.

Would you prefer "gay?"

LOL

If you wanted your friend to chuckle, you should have showed him your dick!

LOL

Tape a tampon to your face before you hit the wake.

Thing is, COVID is real. Outside the known-vulnerable classes, Wuhan disease is absolutely unpredictable, and for the unlucky, lethal.

I can see why H5 is in shock.

We don't have a vaccine, we still don't know a treatment that is a bona-fide sure cure. I mean, I caught it from my stepdad, up to my elbows in his toxic snot, I'm 60 and never felt a thing except a little stuffiness that is usual for me when I take road trips from the mountains to eastern Montana. I had a bunch of meetings all around MT during my "hot phase" and thank GOD I infected nobody -- but we distanced, didn't shake hands, and were masked when not jawing at each other during the meetings. So when my Dad called me to tell me he was in the COVID can, it was horrifying.

I basically blew off a couple of final meetings and headed home to get tested. At first, they refused because I was asympto. But I finally got a test after a day of grumpy phone calls and yep, I was positive after all.

Keep in mind, my case was pretty odd. As I was already positive, but clearly not hot any more (probably not at all), the DRs in the COVID unit let me have an hour with my Dad so we could take our leave of each other. I think we both kind of needed that, to have a real goodbye. It was hard, but less hard than just being walled off.

This Chinese crap is so insidious, just lurking there for a chance to jump down anyone, I just can't blow it off, I have to use a "reasonable precaution" protocol, give people space for their sake and peace of mind. I'm not saying we should be paranoid, but yep, this crap WILL try to get you if you give it a chance.

There's hundreds, if not thousands, of coronaviruses.

They cause the common cold.

Only a few have been identified, because there's no incentive to do so.

The common cold doesn't kill normal healthy people, and there's not enough money in trying ta cure a cold, to make anyone GAS about a cure.

Compromised people have been dying from colds for hundreds of years. Nobody did a test, even a fake one, about the death because it was accepted that the person that died, either died from advanced age, medical conditions, or a poor reaction to the infection.

Only purposefully generated hysteria is responsible for the concern about this year's coronavirus. It is likely no more deadly than a normal coronavirus, but that will never be determined because the data regarding the virus has been deliberately obfuscated.

The cold virus doesn't become deadly, because someone you know allegedly died from it.

The cold virus doesn't become deadly, because you may be related to someone that allegedly died from it.
