I’m a nurse in a psychiatric facility and I posted last month that another fellow nurse and colleague of mine caught the rona, went to the hospital, and died. She was 65 and a smoker. Ok I get it. Greater risk. However, last night, we found out that another nurse in our facility caught it, went to the hospital(which he was very much against) and died. He was in his mid 40s, unvaccinated and overall pretty healthy. No underlying conditions that we were aware of. He was very anti mask, anti covid vax and establishment. As most of us are. I am actually very in shock that they took HIM out. This just doesn’t make any sense.

I think a huge part of it is that "do no harm" has been replaced with "order everything their insurance will allow". Many insurance-paid tests are dangerous and offer no benefit or confuse a diagnosis with either too much or incorrectly prepared information.

Yup it's literally death by a thousand cuts. Even drawing blood does a little bit of harm. Tell a doctor you don't want a blood test because you just had one a week ago and they act like you're insane. I've unfortunately had two MRIs in my life. Both times they insisted I take the Gadolinium contrast solution. Both times I said fuck it then I won't get the MRI. Both times they relented and I got the MRI without contrast solution. Both times they could clearly see what they needed to. The first one resulted in a further mis-diagnosis. The second one just confirmed what we already knew wasn't a problem. Exposure to strong magnetic fields in itself is a health risk. Being injected with Gadolinium is way worse. They all said Gadolinium is totally safe and side effects are rare. Funny how much you hear about rare side effects these days. It's also worth noting that the root cause of both problems I was told to get an MRI from were due to side effects from a medication (Cipro). At this point they're giving people side effects to mis-diagnose side effects from previous medical interventions.

That's absolutely horrible and all too common. The $$$ they collected justified the "small amount" of damage in their twisted minds. Meanwhile your life goes deeper into ruin with each return visit.
