Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire So, Covid is mostly harmless.

Except when it is not.

The last week of May I posted that my younger sister (she would have been 64 next week) was in ICU with Covid.

The Covid triggered one cascading systemic failure after another. She spent about five weeks in ICU and was transported from Walla Walla to Spokane Wa via air ambulance.

She died yesterday.

After spending what? At a published $4K/day for ICU care w/ ventilation.......somewhere approaching $150K in hospital bills?

All preventable with a free shot at any local pharmacy.

When her daughter was asked: "Have you guys been vaccinated?"
She answered: "No, we do not want to be tracked!"

"Oh, so you have destroyed your cell phone then?"

"Uh? What?"

Ignorance does abound!

Before COVID19, folks died of the flu at about the same rate annually, and following the same pattern. You just never heard of it, because it was a mere statistic back then that you had to look up if you wanted to know about it.

Not to make light, of course. RIP. Sorry for your loss. When things like this hit home, or close to it, they suddenly become very real.

Prayers sent for the family.

I thank you!

My condolences on the loss of your sister, I'm very sorry.

For the sake of your sister don't turn it political, she made a decision. She wasn't a sheeple, good for her, you should be proud.

To be honest, I think there is a lot of poor healthcare going on. My sister has COPD got the Covid and kicked its ass after 2 weeks in ICU. She credits her survival to the great care she was given by her doctors and nurses.

Prayers for you and your family.

Well said.


Sorry for your loss.

even in your own post. the "vaccine" doesnt prevent you from getting covid

Very sorry for your loss.

The choice about getting the COVID shot is personal, and the outcome either way uncertain. I looked at everything I could from reliable sources before I took my decision, but in no way do I feel knowledgeable enough or competent to advise anyone else. I do think very strongly that everything that can be done to prevent and treat it isn’t widely available due to politics and other agendas, which is tragic and shameful. Someday I hope all that can be set aside for everyone’s good, but I ain’t holding my breath.

Again, my condolences. Losing a sibling is hard.

Sorry to read that from the OP. The fact remains that while the incidence of infection is going down thanks in large part to the vaccine, there are still 25,000 cases a day in the US and you can bet that number is under reported because lots of people are going to try to tough it out at home. My sister got it too back in November, but being a medical professional, she knew the possible ramifications and went right in for that infusion treatment. I don't like being part of a nation wide science experiment either, but if the wife and I having gotten the shots makes us test subjects, then so be it. We sure haven't seen any down side.

I’m sorry you lost your sister! My oldest daughter’s mother in law is in hospital fighting for her life. I don’t understand why she didn’t get vaccinated?

Condolences

Sorry for your loss.

I take Covid very seriously. If I thought I had it, I'd treat it aggressively.

That said, the vaxes are BS.

Prayers sent for the family and condolences.

Yes, you are correct. The vaccine is proven to prevent Covid infections in only 95% of recipients.

The other 5% only get the benefit of light cases with minimal symptoms.

[sarc]Total waste of time and money to even develop the damned vaccine! [/sarc]

Politics has nothing to do with this! This is a health choice.

I am sorry that your sister died.

That's sad.

Did she get any Ivermectin or HCQ? Covid 19 is curable. The vaccine with not stop you from catching covid 19.

The common wisdom is COVID risks are all equal. They are not. The risks increase with age and comorbidities. I doubt if it will be ever understood.

Lots of people who are fully vaccinated die of Covid too.

Your sister may have died regardless.

The risks most significantly increase in connection with Vitamin D3 deficiency. And, yes, many are dying of it due to doctors refusing to prescribe, or delaying the prescription of, the two treatments proven most effective against it, i.e., HCQ and Ivermectin.

Can you PLEASE supply real data and statistics on how many fully vaccinated people in America have died from Covid in the last six months?

And yes, we all die. Hopefully at home in bed without having incurred $125,000 in medical bills for someone else to pay.
