Coronavirus, Covid 19 Discussion and How It Has Affected Your Daily Life Chat Thread

[RebeccaRN]

Hello to All:

I am going to KINDLY say that our friendly COVID thread has been taken over by anti-vaxxers and peddlers of unproven remedies. Experienced posters are getting drowned out by a flock of little newbie peeps who scream for "kindness" and for "free speech" all while peddling silly ideas or remedies that come from one extreme of the political spectrum.

Is the flavor of the day ivermectin, or is it hydroxychloroquine, or is it artemesinin combination therapy? (I added a second malaria treatment just for giggles).

You guys DO know that hydroxychloroquine has been DISPROVEN as a COVID treatment. Yes? I see a little better evidence with ivermectin, but what raises my suspicion is that the same people who peddled hydroxychloroquine are now trying to promote ivermectin.

Drowning this thread of of friendly conversations with nonsense is highly rude, not "kind."

KINDNESS is helping elder relatives access the vaccine they desperately need. KINDNESS is getting the vaccine if one is eligible to help us all get to herd immunity the correct way, through vaccination.

Let's truly be KIND, and help each other.

There are alternatives, no one is saying not to get vaccinated. Your opinion is not the only right answer. Why are you so afraid of any other alternatives for people to look into?

I am not sure who these anti-vaxxers are that you feel have taken over this thread? I haven't seen one person say not to get vaccinated.

Time for the 'Ignore' function.

Each person needs to do what they feel is best for them and only a tyrant would say otherwise

I take Vit D ( have for a couple years) and olive leaf with 50% oleuropein every day. I discovered olive leaf for shingles a few years ago. I believe it was Pfizer pharmaceutical who did extensive research on it and found it kills over 300 viruses. They dropped their research when they found out they couldn't patent it and make a profit. There is no research for effectiveness against covid but I figure there could be a chance.

Thank you. I am going to look into olive leaf extract.

Winter creek coop i was wondering about the ivermectin you were talking about and I did find several articles about it being used for covid. I'm gonna research it some more. Thanks for sharing about it. These were a few I found...very interesting

This site is the one by Drs. Kory and Marik as well as several other frontline experts. It has the most extensive info and research. Also the IMASK+ protocol is on there. The ivermectin FAQ is great too. I’m glad you’re looking into it. Best health to you and yours.

Can we just have our friendly thread back, without being accused of being "tyrants?"

Can we chat about scientifically-valid stuff, without being pushed out of here?

By the way: New People: PLEASE. Tell us about your chickens. Do you actually raise chickens?

P.S. I have an entire thread about my chickens. However, I suspect some of the new people don't even have chickens and have just come to this chicken forum to accuse the rest of us of being "tyrants."

It was never taken away. I'm sorry you feel that way.

Its sad that you feel only opinions that mirror yours are acceptable to post on this thread.

It's snowing today, and then colder for the next week or so. More normal January weather, it's been mild until now. And almost February! More daylight, and short month, all good.
I haven't let the chickens out yet, and doubt that they want to play in the snow right now. Pretty to look at, from inside.
Time to make soup!
