COVID-19: How government brainwashed GWB and others

For example, telling a patient "the COVID vaccine will not protect you from COVID, and will not prevent you from transmitting it" got people banned. If doctors had said that, they could have lost their license.

Some did.
Still can in Cali.

I don’t know what to tell you because now you’re arguing about what is and isn’t misinformation and disinformation. Obviously if physicians are spreading disinformation then they are using their medical licenses for harm, same as a doctor selling opioid scripts or recommending quack therapies. There was a lot of disinformation and still is around Covid and Covid vaccines and removing physicians from licensure for malpractice seems right to me.

This seems trivial to me though.

To me, misinformation/disinformation (which is essentially the same thing, call it what you like) is when you state something that has been proven to be untrue, yet you do it anyway. And by "proven to be untrue" I mean has passed rigorous Scientific Method procedure and has stood the test of time.

Certainly, if claims are deemed "misinformation" but then turn out to be true, and you've acted or threatened those who stated the supposed "misinformation" in a hostile manner, you were in the wrong to do so.

I think this is very obvious to anyone who is not trying to maintain a narrative and is intellectually honest.

Misinformation example.

California AB2098 goes into effect today. If Doctors don't follow the "official" guidelines, well...sucks to be them.

This is quite outrageous. No wonder people are running away from California.

It will be interested to see how many doctors leave. If data like that could be tracked.

And as outlined many times previously -- the Covid vaccines were VERY effective at stopping infection and transmission until Omicron showed up in December of 2021.

Prior Omicron, the vaccinated breakthrough rate for the Covid vaccines in the U.S. was a mere 0.56% -- a rate which is much better than then vaccinated breakthrough rate for the measles & other vaccines in an environment where the disease is highly prevalent.

Anyone that has studied the science of viruses or bacteria will know that something that is new...

What they learn today about it as factually true may be different than what they learn next month especially as new variants are formed.

• Viruses want to survive and they've gotten better at adapting to what scientists throw at them in comparison to 30 years ago.

This has also been the primary theme since the start of the Pandemic. As for right now...people are reverting back to the bad hygiene ways they had prior to the Pandemic. That's OK as we get closer and closer to a highly vaccinated population.

The key now, if someone becomes infected...you want to minimize the risk of hospitalization or death while not allowing your vaccination to wane beyond 6 months especially if you're now traveling or living in an area that's low vaccinated.

Oh, look at that.
Another one of our 'conspiracy theories' coming true for the blue-pills in the Wall Street Journal.

Misinformation example.

While I agree with your comments, and music, might I recommend you switch to decaf?
