Super Cold

[NKBJ]

Are yall watching the developing "super cold" story?

ERs are now swamped with seriously ill patients — but many don't even have COVID

Patients who couldn't see a doctor earlier in the pandemic or were too afraid to go to a hospital have finally become too sick to stay away. Many ERs now struggle to cope with an onslaught of need.

I’m confused. This story was about overcrowded EDs due to staffing trouble, seriously ill patients who waited too long for chronic illness treatment, people scared to come in for treatment until they’re extremely ill, etc. Is the “super cold” some new illness?

I think that this is a story intended to modify public perception of what is going on. In other words, to get ahead of the story.

So, the gist of the story is that the ER at that hospital in Lansing is over run due to this never before experienced wave of illness. I'm thinking it might be an overall increase due to more people are in the mix with decreased effectiveness of their immune system. Or to put it more pointedly, if the ER's are being swamped like never before then what has happened like never before that might have brought this about?

I only have two suspects so far.
1. The Super Cold, whatever that really is or is supposed to be or is being touted as.
2. The jabs having impacted peoples immune systems.

Could the latest weaponized release be a candidate for #3? I don't know.

Oh, about the super cold... Yeah, there's a new booger bear that's been labeled the super cold. It's being given a bit of PR here lately.

It's a stark contrast to where this emergency department — and thousands others — were at the start of the coronavirus pandemic. Except for initial hot spots like New York City, many ERs across the U.S. were often eerily empty in the spring of 2020.

Oh we're admitting it now.

Blood clots and heart disease are probably from the vax. Despite the media blackout, everyone knows someone who took the vax and had a cardiac event or blood clots shortly after. The rest of this is the clock finally running out for terrified doomers who have been avoiding the hospital for almost two years. You can ignore a lot of things for a long time, but not forever. Add on an average 20-30 pounds of weight gain thanks to this lockdown idiocy and no wonder the chickens are coming home to roost.

Or perhaps the wider phenomenon of respiratory problems is ADE from the vax. What we do clearly know at this point is that the last two years of public policy has been an absolute disaster for America's health.

That part of the story jumped right out to me as well!
Did they forget the lies they tried to feed us all last year or did they think we would forget?

The plot thickens

What is trustworthy state saying next....mandate more shots?

**** these ********.

2. The jabs having impacted peoples immune systems.

Been long speculated that was a potential side effect of the jabs due to various compromises made in getting mRNA out of the lab and stable enough to store and transport. Funny how those stories of it needing to be cryogenically stored until use just dried up and that isn't a factor anymore. Should be a good clue for digging.

But you know, trust the experts, not the scientists publishing reports.

I think @hoosierdoc predicted this would happen in the summer of 2020. He said people would skip screenings, delay medics procedures, wait too long to get treatment, etc. and then they would be really sick by the time they showed up. Also, pretty scary to think people with life-threatening illnesses are being treated by inexperienced staff running on far too little sleep.

We have successfully invented a 'time machine' that took us back 100 years to where the hospital is just someplace you go to die...

Sounds like a perfect time to fire swaths of experienced and reliable staff to punish them for not obeying Grandpa Joe.

it is cheaper for the system that way. The old way of nursing the ill back to health and releasing them back into society where they will continue to soak up valuable government benefits and use up finite health care assets is over. Now you go to the hospital, they put you on a ventilator and you die in a day and a half, like my friend who died this morning after being intubated Monday evening.

1.5 days in hospital and he gets sent to mortuary. Frees space for the next intubation and death.

No more SSI. No more Medicare. no more trips by EMTs if he falls down. No more rehab from broken hip, stroke, heart attack. Just quick death and the system lives, at least for a while longer.

Socialized health care is never about curing illnesses. It is about the perception of care with things like annual physicals and cheap to administer things like "vaccines". It is not about curing cancers, heart bypass surgeries, organ replacements, e.g. Those things are expensive and require highly trained medical people.

Socialized health care has to ration those things because "free" health care is like having a grocery store with free food. The shelves will always be empty of the things that people actually want to eat. There will be no steaks, pork, shrimp, lobster, salmon, wine, beer, liquor, real tomatoes, avocados, Cheetos and Spam......

With no price attached to health care demand is through the roof. The only way to handle that is through rationing. And the rationing will be done by bureaucrats with no skin in the game, no real skill at rationing health care and no idea what they will be doing. Central planning is always an epic CF. And the bureaucrats will blame everyone else for their failures.

Sorry for your loss.

Sorry for your loss.

Thanks.

And by the way, the friend was in his early 80s, had been fully vaccinated, like the rest of his family: wife, two boys and 5 grand kids.
All 9 have COVID after full vaccination with booster shots. Grandkids are all in their 20s early 30s.

100% "vaccinated" and 100% sick with COVID. Weird "vaccine" if you ask me. And I also think his doctors should be held liable since they intubated the guy knowing that it would kill him. Intubation doesn't work for COVID patients but apparently that bit of knowledge hasn't reached the hospital system in Chicago. or maybe it has and they want 83 year old's to die? Hate to have to think that but here we are.
