Use of the label 'horse dewormer' is carefully chose by the media to try and belittle the success of alternatives to vaccination, such as ivermectin, where symptoms are treated early. For a proper look at the evidence take a look at, for instance, Dr. Peter McCullough's discussion with the Texan Health Committee.

We should be listening to this guy???

The guy who said this: “People under 50 who fundamentally have no health risks, there’s no scientific rationale for them to ever become vaccinated,”


or is being sued by Baylor?

The COVID-19 “Vaccine Holocaust”: The latest antivaccine messaging

The latest antivaccine disinformation consists of pointing to the large numbers of reports of death (and other adverse events) to the VAERS database. It's nonsense.

Latest from Queensland;
The official Federal line was, we can open up @70% vaccinations.
QLD, (for political reasons, which is a convoluted tale) amended that from 70 up to - 70 to 80%.
Today the goalposts moved yet again.
Now its 80plus%
It's just labour controlled states playing political silly beggers Vs the 'Liberal' (tory-lite) Federal Govt.

But but but ….it’s about personal choice.

If you refuse a vaccine you should be moved down the priority list for any medical care if you get sick from covid. You are making a decision fair enough.. the consequences of your decision are yours to shoulder and shouldn't have a negative impact on others.

That’s not how doctors work though is it?

They, rightfully and amazingly, treat the person in front of them, irrespective of who they are or what they’ve done.

They prioritise who needs it the most.

It’s an oath. I think it’s amazing and selfless and so important. One of the reasons why they should be respected a lot more than they are.

But you know, personal freedom and all that.

Ireland, I have insurance, a few years ago my son needed a routine surgery and we were told that there was a 18 month waiting list, I asked if we could get it done earlier if we went private with our insurance, "what date would suit you" was his response. In all reality someone got a call postponing their kids appointment on the date we chose.
It was in the national children's hospital and we were referred publicly and I Ireland public hospitals can be used by consultants doing private procedures and basically give people a queue skipping pass.
Here's an article from a few years ago on that practice but nothing has changed since then.

I have gone private for non urgent stuff. Not a chance Doctors in the UK prioritise emergency stuff though.

As for the moonlighting between NHS and Private, yeah, not a fan. Hope your lad is now in fine fettle.

Oh sure. I was a bit clumsy; I meant very few choose to have insurance.
