  1. I find it amazing that the same group of people who latch onto radical treatments had previously minimized the potential risk of the virus, and then (often) refused to take the FDA recommended/approved preventive options.
  2. So either the hospitals that Dr. Wagshul admits to are full, or the patient is too ill to transport. Or both. So the next option would be for family/ Dr. Wagshul to find a pulmonologist/ICU doctor on medical staff at that hospital who will prescribe the treatment. The hospital can’t just add Wagshul to their staff for this one case.
  3. Except I don’t believe the doctor who is recommending the treatment is on medical staff at the hospital. He’s a third party ivermectin advocate that the judge is citing as justification for treatment. So the judge is mandating treatment. I see Dr. Wagshul having affiliation with Kettering and Wright State University in Dayton, NOT the Cincinnati suburb hospital involved in the care. ”Washgul, a Dayton, Ohio-area pulmonologist, is listed as a founder of the Front Line COVID-19 Critical Care Alliance (FLCCA)—an organization that pushes ivermectin as both a preventative and therapeutic for covid-19 and claims research showing its ineffectiveness is a form of disinformation.”
  4. Although I suppose things are a bit different in Austin than other big Texas cities, as well.
  5. I drive 79 from Pittsburgh to Erie and back most summer weekends. About 135 miles. There are cops in a few predictable areas, although not many. Speed limit is 70, most people do between 70 and 80, a few push 85 mph. Pretty safe, for the most part. People still use those? The were very popular in the late 80’s, but I haven’t seen one in forever. Waze is my friend.
  6. In before @donkpow says “he could give out a pamphlet.”
  7. Could practice medicine. Or is it just veterinary medicine? “A county judge in Ohio has ordered a hospital in Cincinnati to administer ivermectin to an intensive care patient”.
  8. Peter Benchley set it up pretty well. As a producer/executive producer he’s had decent success in the previous decade. But as a director, I think Catch Me if you Can was the last one of his that I saw. Don’t know if Lincoln was any good.
  9. We recently watched White Lotus on HBO. Awaiting the next Curb Your Enthusiasm season (and Dexter, although that’s SHO). We’re watching 30 Rock and Criminal Minds (never saw either more than sporadic episodes of 30 Rock in past). We liked Confession Killer.
  10. Pretty much this. I have Netflix, HBO and Prime. I gave up Hulu and am not looking to pay for more TV subscriptions.
  11. That’s interesting. We didn’t have the cicada boom, but we did have the bird feeder/bath warnings. Our cardinals are fine. I don’t often see the blue jay, but I’ll keep an eye out for him. The robins seem normal.
  12. Isn’t there a surgical scene in the movie? At least people could wear masks and still fit in with the costumes.
  13. They’ve had as good a “safe travel” plan as any, mandating negative test within 72 hours prior to departure to the islands, then negative test upon arrival there if you wished to avoid quarantine. That was in place last November. Not sure if vaccination status has changed that program much, or not at all. They also have pretty good vaccination rates there.
  14. Meanwhile their Governor is saying now is not the time to visit the islands.
  15. That’s wrong, for many of the factors that Max stated. The virus will mutate, randomly. The mutations that give the virus a better chance of surviving and reproducing will dominate. Those that can overcome the vaccine resistance will obviously be favored, as they’ll have more hosts to infect. But a less virulent virus that causes less host illness/death could also prevail, as longer living hosts means more replication time. Emphasis on “our”. It’s also how THE World can be saved from our parasitic species!
  16. Let us hope that any mutations at the spike protein that renders the current vaccines ineffective will also negatively impact the virus’ infectious capabilities. Because to me, the genius of the vaccines is their ability to target that key protein in the cellular attack mechanism.
  17. Why did Pfizer enter into the payments from the DOJ settlement for the Epipen over charge case? Do they own Mylan?
  18. But his parents did. His issue should be with them, or his own decision to draw attention to himself that he’s the Nevermind baby. Because if not for that, no one would ever know of it. And without getting too Maplethorp-ish, this is not child pornography. Calling it such is an offense to kids who have been sexually exploited.
  19. I assume they were leftovers that needed to be eaten. Probably add some sweetness. I’d try it.
  20. “Spencer Elden may very well be the most famous naked baby the world has ever seen. A photo of him as an infant — submerged in water and seemingly chasing a dollar bill dangling from a fish hook — became the cover of Nirvana’s 1991 release “Nevermind,” considered one of the greatest rock albums of all time. Three decades later, Elden is now claiming the album cover is child pornography. Elden, who’s 30, on Tuesday filed a lawsuit in a Los Angeles federal court against a host of defendants tied to the album, alleging the cover is “sexual exploitation” that will hurt him — emotionally and physically — for the rest of his life.” It’s not Kurt Cobain’s fault that the kid dates gold diggers who dump him when they learn he doesn’t get a cut of Nirvana sales. And who would know Specer was the Nevermind baby if Spencer didn’t tell them???
  21. As I understand it, somewhere in the high 80% of Federal money targeting this issue has not been “distributed”. I don’t know where this is getting hung up, at the Federal or State level, but it’s clearly a problem.
