Somewhere in the middle

@MikeBales It’s a powerful story, and I hope it’s true. But it doesn’t work this way for most people. Chemo kept my mother’s cancer from growing for 4 years. And her quality of life was great.

Doctor: "Chemo might give you 12 months. Without it? 6 months." Dad: "I'll take the 6 months." He didn't want to die in a hospital bed. He wanted to die in a national park. He bought an RV, grabbed his wife and hit the road. He stopped fighting the cancer and started fighting the boredom. Six months passed. He was hiking. Twelve months passed. He was fishing. Eighteen months passed. The tumor had... The doctors called it a "medical anomaly." He called it "The Grand Canyon Cure." Maybe the best chemotherapy isn't a poison. Maybe it's just... life.

@txsalth2o @TheKevinDalton Meh. 58k people is nothing. Many will return. SF saw this same thing happen and now it’s growing. People go other places and realize those other places are shit.

@TheKevinDalton Watching the map thinking "don't come here, not here, not here...."

Los Angeles County sees largest population decline in the U.S. The Gavin Newsom Effect continues.

@DawnsMission You say this every year. Shut up.

Some hospitals across America are now asking people to mask up again, claiming you could spread COVID if you don’t. We already know MASKS don’t work for this. Are they quietly prepping us for the next pandemic scare?

@united can you please ensure WiFi works on all of your planes, consistently?

@johnofbradford @NicHulscher @stkirsch Cope with what?

@jeffm1981 @NicHulscher @stkirsch 🤣🤣🤣 cope harder

🚨BREAKING: Grok says COVID-19 mRNA injections CAUSE CANCER x.com/i/grok/share/1…

@johnofbradford @NicHulscher @stkirsch Unsurprising. Uninteresting.

@jeffm1981 @NicHulscher @stkirsch Also I’m unjabbed 🤣🤣

@DrKellyVictory You apparently are illiterate or retarded. Either way, you’re irrelevant to any conversation about vaccines or immunology. Shut up.

You apparently have never bothered to read the National Childhood Vaccine Injury Act of 1986. Take some time to educate yourself. Until then, take a seat.

@johnofbradford @NicHulscher @stkirsch You sound illiterate.

@jeffm1981 @NicHulscher @stkirsch You sound jabbed 🤣😂

@redpillb0t Bullshit.

Pfizer employees were given a *special batch*… different from what was forced into the general population

Meh. I live here. It’s still better than 99% of the rest of the country. Best weather. Best schools. Epicenter for nearly all innovation. Biggest manufacturing and ag sectors. Some of the best restaurants in the world. Diverse population. The tech billionaires who domicile themselves and their companies is places like Austin and miami still have the majority of their operations here and can’t find talent in those places…because there is very little talent. CA will always be great and better than the rest of the US.

@californiapost California staples and legacies being forced to leave due to @GavinNewsom an @KarenBassLA Y’all need to elect @spencerpratt before it’s too late.

@ted_macie From the virus…

@aidannonx @ShabbosK @CoreyWriting No, no it’s not. It’s how a mentally unwell/brainwashed/uneducated minority of under 30 year olds think. You’re not even in the conversation. You’re in a small bumble with a bunch of fucking morons that nobody takes seriously. 😂

Just like James Fishback, I don't live in Florida. That's why I trust Byron Donalds to continue to kill DEI, advance meritocracy, and protect Floridians from creeps who try dating 17 year olds. Keep Florida free. Vote Byron.

@SecKennedy @DrOzCMS Why do you look like an an undercooked Steak?

At HHS, we reject the idea that our health system is too broken to fix. Today, @DrOzCMS and I are announcing a new Healthcare Advisory Committee—top experts from across the country coming together to provide insight on how to cut costs, reduce red tape, and put patients first. Real reform starts now.

@WallStreetMav Only a moron would come to them conclusion. You didn’t read the full paper, did you. Dumbass.

Reminder: Cleveland Clinic study... Vaccination makes you more likely to get the flu, not less likely.

@RichieChampagne @Dawn46014444 @ValerieAnne1970 You believe everything you see and hear on OAN don’t ya

@jeffm1981 @Dawn46014444 @ValerieAnne1970 Kettle.

ICU Nurse, Tiffany Dover, was one of the 1st people in the world to get a COVID mRNA injection...within 30 seconds on national TV, she collapsed.

@RichieChampagne @Dawn46014444 @ValerieAnne1970

@Dawn46014444 @jeffm1981 @ValerieAnne1970 Dawn, He’s from California. He has to follow the government rules.

@Dawn46014444 @ValerieAnne1970 Evidence, bitch?

@jeffm1981 @ValerieAnne1970 Many people did die dumbass

@JediMasterCoggy @jsm2334 @grok By what mechanism would a Covid-19 cause SCD? And how can you prove the virus itself didn’t lead to myocarditis, et al.?

Does the study actually verify what the COVaxON date represents for each patient? The methods say vaccination was “ascertained from the COVaxON database”, that’s it. No discussion of whether that’s the injection date, the data entry date, or when the system designated them vaccinated. No validation of the date field’s accuracy. For a design where the entire SCCS conclusion depends on the precise timing of vaccination relative to death, that’s a pretty significant assumption left unexamined.

🏮 Another population-level study finds no evidence whatsoever of that healthy younger individuals given COVID-19 vaccines had increased risk of "dying suddenly", i.e. with sudden cardiac deaths. Researchers in Toronto just published a study in PLOS Medicine assessing whether risk of sudden cardiac death was increased after COVID-19 vaccination in healthy young people 12-50yrs old. The study was a population-based matched case-control study from a cohort of 14,966,193 residents of Ontario, Canada, focusing on the subset of 6,365,451 who were <50yrs and "healthy", with no medical history of cardiovascular disease, cancer, diabetes, mental illness, dementia, COPD, IBD, chronic liver or kidney disease, autoimmune disease, or alcohol or illicit drug use. Cases included 4,803 individuals from that cohort who "died suddenly" between April 1, 2021 and June 30, 2023, meaning they either died outside the hospital or died in ER or within 24hr of admission with indication of cardiac arrest, sudden death or arrhythmia but no indication of trauma, mental illness or substance use. Controls included 24,030 individuals matched 5:1 to cases in terms of age, sex, geographic area, and neighborhood income quintile, with their index data set to death date of matched case. After matching, all of these variables were well-balanced between cases and controls. The primary analysis was a conditional logistic regression to assess association of case/control status with vaccination status (any vaccine), with covariate-adjustment for confounders including COVID-19 infection, influenza vaccination, number of SARS-CoV-2 PCR tests to estimate COVID healthcare utilization, and history of asthma, hypertension and mood/anxiety disorders. Many sensitivity analyses were done including separate analyses for vaccine types, focusing on the 6wk period after vaccination, focusing only on ER/hospital deaths with cause well-documented, excluding any opioid deaths, focusing on <=40yrs old, plus a secondary self-controlled case series comparing the 6wk after doses 1/2/3 to other time periods to perform an assessment free from any subject-level residual confounders such as healthcare utilization or other factors related to healthy vaccinee effect. In the primary analysis, 77.1% of controls received any COVID-19 vaccine before the index date, while only 67.4% of cases did, which resulted in an adjusted odds ratio of 0.57 (95% CI 0.53-0.61), suggesting a 43% reduced risk of sudden death in the vaccinated group. All secondary analyses found similar results, with vaccinated having lower risk of sudden death than unvaccinated, with some statistically significant and some not. None of the analyses had any indication whatsoever that risk of sudden death was increased after vaccination, either in the short or long term. This validates results from two earlier UK studies using self-controlled case series that found no increased risk of sudden cardiac death within 4wks (Nafilyan et al. 2023 Nature Communications PMID: 36973247) or 12wks (Xu et al. 2024 Vaccine PMID: 38388239) after COVID-19 vaccination. So, in spite of all of the repeated claims on social media and in videos purporting major increased risk in sudden cardiac death after COVID-19 vaccination, the population-level data continue to strongly refute these claims.

- The post recirculates a December 2020 clip of nurse Tiffany Dover fainting on live TV moments after receiving the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine at CHI Memorial Hospital in Chattanooga, Tennessee, to underscore public skepticism toward mRNA shots. - Hospital officials and medical experts explained the collapse as vasovagal syncope—a brief loss of consciousness from stress or needle phobia—unrelated to the vaccine; Dover recovered within minutes and received her second dose uneventfully. - The incident ignited conspiracy theories falsely claiming Dover's death, leading to online harassment that persisted for years, as detailed in her 2023 NBC interview, highlighting how viral misinformation eroded vaccine confidence despite rapid fact-checks from sources like FactCheck.org.

Tiffany Dover was one of the first people in the world to get a COVID mRNA injection, collapsing moments later on National TV And people still trusted taking the jab
