COVID-19 Response: An issue that shouldn't be at all political....yet here we are

[spliff(TONE)]

You’re about as bad at reading people as nasty. lol

Ahh....the sweet sound of denial.

Its sensationalized, sure, I agree. But that doesnt address this idea you guys seem to allude to that distancing is unnecessary or overblown. It's such a basic ABC of health care, I dont see how any health care worker would oppose it.

The entire system from the ground up operates with this in mind. If a doctor sees a patient and sees another one without washing his hands, that's a big deal. A BIG. ****IN. DEAL. And that's the norm in your guys place of employment. So it just contradicts your overall stance towards the handling of this virus.

I wear a mask everywhere I go and have never opposed it. Not once. Nor have I opposed distancing or alluded to it being unnecessary. I’m actually the last tech in my department that still wears their N95. That’s the problem with this forum. People like to assume the beliefs of everyone else.

And there you have it, guys. Exactly the point I made in my previous post.

No I didnt assume this, this is your post, the type of thing I was referencing.

What people need to understand is that doctors get it wrong too, even doctors sitting as director of the NIAID, especially concerning a virus that is poorly understood. It's a good rule of thumb to heed the advice of doctors, in this case Dr. Fauci since you're directly referencing him, but my statement is still very much true. Health expert is thrown around way too much these days. Even doctors can be dumbasses.

Given this. Which doctor were you talking about specifically in your post saying doctors can be wrong too and which decision of theirs do you think was incorrect?

Is it a problem when you do this too or just now that someone appears to have done it to you? If you have been doing this regularly in specific ways would it be reasonable for others to start making assumptions about why (especially when you don't respond once reality is pointed out)?

I am curious your standards on this whole making assumptions thing.

I was referring to doctors in general. Not anyone specific that’s in the news. It’s one of the perks of healthcare. We know which doctors are good and which are not. Doctors are like everyone else. There are some that are just really bad at their jobs and I wouldn’t let them near anyone I cared about.

Reality. lol See, you lost me there. This is a very arrogant and ignorant stance. There are people that believe that an infinite number of genders is reality. To me, it isn’t. And probably not to you either.

If I don’t respond to someone’s post it’s usually because it was buried and the conversation moved on to other topics in the same thread by the time I see it. Most of the PSD’ing I do is while I’m at work to pass the time. A lot of times these threads move along so fast that my last post is 8 pages back and I just don’t care to dig it up and reply. PSD on a phone is also pretty brutal to use.

But if you want to know something or what I believe about a particular subject, just ask.

[spliff(TONE)]

Arrogance and ignorance? You certainly are kind of an expert of sorts in both those fields.

This first paragraph seems like you are making an assumption. By reality I mean things that actually happened like posts on a forum about a specific topic (Kavanaugh). Is that not reality? What is ignorant and arrogant about knowing what I have posted before? Why did you assume I meant random other stuff?

I am talking about you specifically taking this approach in another thread and apparently here again making assumptions about another poster without even understanding what they are talking about.

He didn't even realize what I was referencing and he is calling it ignorant lol.

[spliff(TONE)]

Playing victim and pretending like he hasn't said the things he's said on this site seem to be two critical components of his new PSD routine.

*oh yeah....also claiming that my entire existence revolves around Trump half a dozen times per day or so too

I think everyone agrees there are bad doctors out there (I know of several military ones I wouldn't want operating on me). But it just seems odd to randomly make that post in this thread without a point.

You’re welcome to show me an example of when I did this and I’ll address it.
