If such a large stink was raised โ‰ˆ60-65 years ago, how many people would have needlessly died from polio and small pox.
Remember the optimistic quotes we saw in spring 2020, such as
Our parents and grandparents were called to war. We're being asked to sit on the couch. We can do this.

Nope, apparently we can't.

I ain't got no stinkin' attitude!


Yup, mindsets are a bit different now, especially in the USA.

Did you know that Viagra was not created for erectile dysfunction? That use was discovered accidentally and the FDA gave a priority review to fast track it

Highly contagious, often uncomfortable, sometimes serious and rarely fatal. There are other reasons besides selfishness and ignorance to not take it: if someone has survived the v***s, there is no need; for some there are religious reasons; for others there is the very real fear of taking a v*****e that has not been fully and completely tested and vetted.

Anyone who doesn't take the v*****e has only themselves to blame if they get sick. If they spread it to other unv******ted people, that was also the personal choice of those people. That may be inconsiderate but it is not selfish, and if they know the risks then neither is it ignorant.
Highly contagious, often uncomfortable, sometimes ... (show quote)


And what about the children under 12 who cannot yet be v******ted and are endangered by unv******ted adults that contribute to the spread and give the v***s a chance to continue to mutate?

And letโ€™s not forget all those who are sick with other diseases, but their care is c*********d or postponed because the hospital is overwhelmed with unv******ted C***d patients. Iโ€™ve personally had that experience.

Of course I knew that - viagra was intended to be a drug for hypertension - however when P****r was doing the study - a large cohort of men receiving the drug suspected it was helping them with ED and they did NOT want to leave the study arm that was actually receiving the real medication. It took P****r a little while to figure out why - and the rest is Hi$tory. And OBTW - that is why combining any of the PDE5-i meds (viagra, cialis) with nitrates can cause a precipitous (and dangerous) fall in blood pressure.

Personally, I have never been in favour of genetically modified foods, and do not favour of genetically modifying my body.

I only fear what would happen to my wife and daughter if I punch the clock from something that was not my fault. No matter what you do or don't do, something will take you out' ta here!
