Where have you lived that you have had Universal Health Care and know it is more accessible? People pay for private insurance in Universal Health Care countries so they can get accessibility!!!Civilized said:PackFansXL said:
I suspect universal health care would make things worse rather than better. Big Government run programs are always slow to react and are often woefully ineffective relative to private industry.
Did it make things worse for Sweden?
Universal Health care may be less nimble but it's also more accessible.
Challenging or impossible to parse.
Here is some county level data to cleanse the palette from my ranting from top 7 population counties.
Buncombe kind of waffling.

I hear you brother.
Regarding the inexcusable nature of where public health administrators landed, it's not like the US was a particular outlier in first-world countries though, is it? The US's lockdowns seemed less severe than much of Europe, for instance.
Regarding cost-benefit, it would be fascinating to see Sweden's cost-benefit equation. I'd love to see what their inputs and outputs were, and using that same equation what the US's outputs would have been given our differing inputs from Sweden's situation WRT health, poverty, health care, ER capacity, recommendation compliance, etc.

I'm not advocating for UHC or extolling its virtues. Sweden's income tax rate is approaching 60%. That wouldn't fly here.
But this whole discussion is centering around Sweden's approach to COVID.
Their health care system's ability to care for those that would get sick was undoubtedly a consideration.
Sweden is tops in the world in physicians per capita. They have twice as many per capita as the US does.
The US has three times as many uninsured people (30 million) as Sweden has people.
Our obesity rate is 2x theirs.
Our poverty rate is 2x theirs.
These things matter when it comes to underlying health, and access to health care.
Underlying health, and access to health care, matter when assessing cost/benefit of approaches to a deadly global pandemic.
We can talk about Sweden, but if we're going to let's make sure to talk about the important ways they are different from the US, in ways that may have been consequential when making public health policy.

Agreed overall, ineptitude at the top seems like a worldwide epidemic, although U.S. was one of most egregious on schools.

And yet COVID policies in the U.S. were designed to place the heaviest burden on the lower end of the socioeconomic ladder. Already suffering from the poorest access to healthcare.
With less resources, they likely also suffered the most from lack of open schools
And all the while likely having jobs where they couldn't hide in their houses. therefore being exposed to a greater initial disease burden.
Bravo!
Long answer to saying NO I have not lived in a country UHC country. They are not more accessible as you stated.Civilized said:Cthepack said:Where have you lived that you have had Universal Health Care and know it is more accessible?

Rumors that Gavin Newsome has Bells Palsy after his booster shot. He hasn't been seen in public since 10/27.
They will go to the mat denying (lying about) any adverse affect from Newsome's booster.packgrad said:

998.5 out of 1,000 survive the sc-called pandemic virus .........based on a 40 CYCLE PCR test diagnosis..........and coincidentally w no Flu A or B last year?
Some of you guys will soon be getting a dose of reality.....sinister stuff. I've got a bunch of family that ran and jumped in that boat too. My 88-yr old dad and my 84-yr old mom........but perfectly healthy ......and I thought would both push 95-100. Now both struggle with balance, energy, strange ailments and my mom fell last week and now has a broken arm and wrist in rehab. Both got the Pfizer jabs in Jan/Feb. I just didn't know enough at the time to stand in the way. I don't think they make it a year. So many have simply trusted .......trusted Big Pharma, the MSM and their Federal Govt. But none of the three remain American; our federal govt has been captured. This is going to be a dismal 4-5 years under the best of circumstances.

You don't have to suspect, Britain shows us in all its crowning glory what a bureaucratized, unfeeling, capricious and sometimes malicious universal public health system is like. Remember the dying baby that the bureaucrats wouldn't allow its parents to bring to the United States for a shot at treatment that the Brits either couldn't or wouldn't give?PackFansXL said:

Lawsuit filed on behalf of Navy SEALs facing intimidation for seeking religious COVID-19 vaccine exemptionshttps://t.co/GZqWWfKjnR
— Fox News (@FoxNews) November 9, 2021
Aren't SEALs required to kill enemy combatants as directed by their mission? Not sure how the dichotomy of having a job that requires you to kill but you are claiming a religious exemption against killing.
I'm sure the courts will work it out. Does anyone know if any of the other vaccines required by the Navy also originated via whatever process uses the embryonic cells? If so it may be hard for them to claim religious exemption against this one but not the battery of vaccines / shots they may have received once joining the Navy.
ETA: I don't know what the answer is, I just think it will be hard for them to claim a deeply held religious belief against killing when that's a requirement of their job. And they didn't object to it previously.

Boy, saying one can't hold religious beliefs if they are a soldier, or it creates confusion for you how they can, is some straight up liberal bull***** Unreal that people are such a cult about this virus and vaccination.
Bend the knee SEALS! The cult demands it.
For purposes of this strongly held religious belief, what is the difference between abortion and killing? They are saying they do not want to get the vaccine because it goes against their religious beliefs, which killing does as well but that's a part of their job requirement. I'm trying to understand the carve out of one being OK in their religious belief and the other not. You will likely find that the courts / arbitrator of the decision has a hard time distinguishing as well.
I guess we'll see once the dust settles.

So you don't think soldiers can have religious convictions? I'm trying to understand how you can have such a simplistic, radical leftist take. I don't see how it is hard at all to differentiate between "killing" in war and battle versus the "killing" of an unborn child. A simple google search could provide you some insight if that is what you desire. I, however, think Covid is your religion, so you prefer the simplistic, radical leftist take to justify your position.statefan91 said:

Yes, we will see once the dust settles.
ETA... also, if you think the courts/arbitors of the decision will have a hard time distinguishing between their views on killing in abortion versus killing in war, or that that will have nothing to do with the decision, you will be disappointed. That line of thinking is just a radical leftist deflection.
See "jihad".
Abortion is murder. Killing in a war is NOT murder.
God's word in the Bible prohibits murder...not killing in a war. How many times did God command the Israelites to kill their enemies in a war?
Why do Leftists pretend to care about or know anything about the Bible? They clearly hate God and reject his word.

Just got my booster shot. I'm getting messages from satellites. Is now a good time to activate the Jewish space lasers?
Don't waste your time and energy on these guys. Make sure truth reaches the UN-JABBed and that they must hold the line. For those who've unfortunately made the decision to become guinea pigs for supposed protection from a planned virus that is 99.85% survivable. Butcha get a vaccine passport that you can renew with each new booster..........grow a brain guys.
There are many world class athletes dying on the field during competition this year.......not a peep out of the MSM, our captured Federal Govt and the Mengele Pharma. Duck Duck Go might find it. A video clip can be found on Telegram.org if you know where to look. This is REAL folks and we must all come to terms with what's underway. United, we stop this sh$t in its tracks.

Jabbed Minnesota Vikings Dakota Dozier admitted to hospital with COVID or a variant. The Jabbed carry the spiked protein and there bodies make new variants.
If you have been VAX'd, get yourself to a LAB for a finger *****, collect the blood and get it on glass under a microscope. Your blood no longer looks healthy and described by experts as appearance unlike anything they've ever seen.

For the first time since the Labor Day data disruption we are seeing an increase in 7 day average of cases by date of collection in NC
Will see if this is just plateau wiggle, or we are starting the bounce.

^Variants are going to increase and may actually result in a real pandemic. All by the design of the spiked protein.
Are you only against Covid vaccines or does your, uh, concern extend to other diseases like polio, measles, smallpox, the flu, etc?

Dude have you talked to your doctor about this?
Doctors can't tell the truth about covid or the vaxx (among many other things), or they are now being threatened with losing their license/job. And even many of the ones who are sounding the alarm are being censored on YouTube and other social media, so it's difficult to hear from them.Civilized said:Werewolf said:

Similarly, doctors can't recommend "alternative" treatments for cancer, or they risk losing their license. They can only recommend the Big Medical Mafia "official" "treatments" of shooting you up with poison (chemotherapy) or toxic radiation.

Again, is this the bounce? We know that states like Vermont with some of the highest vax rates in the country are hitting pandemic highs and that a winter wave of cases is likely inevitable for areas who have not hit a high level of disease conferred immunity since vaccine protection against infection wanes after a few months.

That's not even close to being true. My Doctor talked to me about the effects of covid and everything to know about the vaccine. I'm having blood work done tomorrow along with my flu shot.

Joe Rogan is his name. He worked with his doctor to develop his plan if he ever got Covid. He did the right thing.
I absolutely wouldn't listen to my GP on this. Very easy to decide, I watch some of the globally renowned expert scientists and doctors that risk their professional reputations and even their safety by speaking up about the genocide about the get underway. Keep watching CNN and they'll have you on the cattle car in no time. All those professional athletes dropping dead on what I just posted were RUSSIAN lies.......
I don't want to change your mind Civilized, your types need to be 1st in line to get all the new jabs.........your immunity is now about 60% of what it was before your 2 jabs.......what's this 1st booster gonna drop it by ya think?

Sure, there are a few brave doctors who will risk telling the truth. And it varies from state to state, depending on how draconian the medical board is in that state, as to what they can and cannot say.Glasswolf said:That's not even close to being true.

I'm just making the general point that doctors in many/most places are threatened with losing their license if they speak out critically against the vaxx or the "official" covid narrative.
for example, in Tennessee...
https://www.wbir.com/article/news/health/tennessee-doctors-who-spread-covid-vaccine-misinformation-could-lose-their-licenses/51-b1501694-7837-4473-a1de-51fbe9b5941b
Quote:
Tennessee doctors who spread COVID-19 vaccine misinformation could lose their licenses
The Tennessee Board of Medical Examiners adopted a new policy that says any physician who creates or spreads disinformation could face disciplinary action.
It looks like most states have this policy. The Federation of State Medical boards threatened all doctors across the country...
https://www.latimes.com/business/story/2021-08-16/doctors-coronavirus-misinformation-license
Quote:
Column: A warning to doctors spreading COVID misinformation could cost you your license
...the Federation of State Medical Boards recently felt compelled to issue a stark warning to medical professionals:
"Physicians who generate and spread COVID-19 vaccine misinformation or disinformation are risking disciplinary action by state medical boards, including the suspension or revocation of their medical license."
"Ye are not of the world, but I have chosen you out of the world, therefore the world hateth you." - John 15:19
I've taken every vaccine in my 65-yrs.....as did all my children. Now that the powers that be have changed the definition.......I guess I've refused my 1st one.dogplasma said:

Given what I know from the last year of intensive -- and I mean intensive - study of the censored exports I choose not to take the FLU vaccine for the 1st time. I may have missed a number of flu vaccines in my younger days. I see clearly the sinister nature of what's underway.
From an overall perspective, without getting in the weeds, take the time to watch:
1. Monopoly (its on *****ute and Rumble.........a Hendu Indian guy does the show, about 30-40 min)
2. Judy Mikovits, Plandemic, Part 1
3. Judy Mikovits, Plandemic, Part 2
4. Plandemic Part 3 ............I think Rumble splits Part 2 into a Part 2 and 3.......whereas *****ute has it in 2 parts...
If that's not compelling enough to make you start looking in the weeds on this issue then I cannot waste any more time on ya.
I will pray for all of us, we are gonna need it. Its not even bad yet.
