Nursing Homes Giving Fake Schizophrenia Diagnoses to Drug the Elderly into Submission
That’s just crazy talk.
NYT: “Falsely diagnosing old people with psychiatric conditions to drug them is wrong!”
Also NYT: “Tie those motherfucking redneck Deplorables down and either give them the vax or shoot them for attempted murder!”
Their only consistency is their lack of consistency.
D good.
R bad.
“In the US, we’ve long known that it is ethically wrong to force medications on people. ”
Now do vaccinations.
“While this story revolves around medical freedom later in life, it’s similar to another abusive practice that begins in childhood: the overmedication of children with ADD, which is often used to subdue rambunctious kids for the classroom.”
From what I’ve read it’s mostly boys.
So, untermenschen. You know, “defective girls” (yes, that is a thing). No need to concern yourself about their “rights”.
9:1 ratio of diagnoses, probably greater being Adderalled up.

My daughter has bad ADHD. As did I. My mother saw how those drugs made me a zombie and took me off ASAP. I couldn’t do that more than a few weeks with my daughter. I taught her to cope with mental control instead of drugs. Those drugs are bad.
Just finished watching a miniseries about a fictional chess champion who grew up in an orphanage. Orphanages had a way of dealing with unruly kids.

Institutions have been drugging their charges since forever, it’s no surprise that Nursing Homes have joined the party.
Nursing homes have been doing this for a very long time.
Someone just decided to report on it.

Nona is full of shit – she was nowhere near strong enough to compete with top-level male grandmasters. Now, Judit Polgar was another story – she was never “women’s world champion” for the good and simple reason that she chose to compete against the best. Her sisters were pretty fucking good too.
I’ve always wondered on purely intellectual games we make a distinction between men and women.

Chess people are weird and that article does not dispel that notion in my mind.
Chess people are weird
Hmm. I could probably provide a few entertaining examples of this…
Yeah, it is not normal for a five- or six-year-old child to be practicing chess for six or seven hours a day. Good grief.
‘“At the time I was only talking about not wanting to carry around his family member’s teeth, but evidently it’s expected that after I die they’ll knock out my teeth to be distributed to the family members.”‘

Doesn’t everybody do that?
Only for the gold ones.
Isn’t that a Pretenders song?

Do they do this for only humans, or does it include canines?

She should just learn how to grin and bear it.
That is a crazy tradition, but I can see how it makes sense from their point of view. However, I think the more traditional locks of hair is a superior physical keepsake tradition to teeth. I can only assume that this family must have a severe case of hereditary baldness. In any case, that should be the compromise she proposes, that they can’t have her teeth but can keep locks of her hair after she dies.

If you have a bunch of chrome domes in your family, everyone knows you just swap in pubes instead.

“An independent panel at the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has voted 16-2 to not recommend approval of booster doses for the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine.
The Vaccines and Related Biological Products Advisory Committee (VRBPAC) said there was not enough evidence that a third dose was safe and effective for use in those aged 16 and older at least six months after the final dose.
The FDA is not bound to follow the advisory group’s recommendations but the panel advising against approval makes it harder for the agency to justify moving forward.”
https://www.dailymail.co.uk/health/article-10002725/FDA-advisory-committee-votes-NOT-recommend-approval-booster-shots.html
Even NPR is admitting there isn’t scientific justification for the booster. However, they countered that with “but the reality is” people want it and it will make them feel better.
So, just like the masks then.
Exactamundo. Of course, their feelings will also need to be validated by making their choice mandatory on everyone. If it’s not mandatory, that means it might not work, and then they’d be afraid again!
Damn…16-2 is a pretty bold statement on the matter.
Yep.
But it wouldn’t surprise me if it was ignored anyways.
Me neither.

“Moderna Covid vaccine is the most effective against hospitalization at 93% compared to Pfizer shot at 88% and Johnson & Johnson jab at 71%, CDC study suggests
The participants had all been hospitalized at 21 hospitals across 18 states between March 11, 2021 and August 15, 2021 – but not all due to the virus.”
https://www.dailymail.co.uk/health/article-10002261/Moderna-Covid-vaccine-effective-against-hospitalization-93.html
SCIENCE!!!
“The study, published in the journal Clinical Infectious Diseases, examined 49 people infected with Alpha and earlier strains of the virus – who were asymptomatic or had mild symptoms – between May 2020 and April 2021.”
That’s a big “or”.
“But when wearing a mask, infected people exhaled 48 per cent less of the virus, they found.
The finding was true for both for people wearing surgical or cloth masks.”
I doubt that.
“Dr Milton said: ‘Our study provides further evidence of the importance of airborne transmission.”
https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-10002087/Covid-evolving-better-spreading-air.html
So if it’s airborne, staying 6 feet apart, or plastic barriers, are pointless.
Not mentioned:
Masks are only effective for a short window of exposure time to a contagious person. Below, say, 10 minutes, you aren’t really at much risk of infection. There’s a reason contact tracing doesn’t care about short, incidental contacts of less than 15 minutes. After, say, 30 minutes, the leakage from the mask means there’s enough virus floating around to infect somebody.
My work space has achieved 75% obedience. Now, only the unclean must be masked.
And who hold the patent on the…..oh, nevermind.
36% of hospitalized patients being vaccinated is a higher number than I would have expected.
How people who weren’t hospitalized due to COVID are relevant to a study of how effective COVID vaccines are in preventing hospitalization is not obvious to me.
Regardless, I don’t see how they get from 36% of hospitalizations are vaxxed to the vax is 70 – 90% effective. Seems like the study should start with what percentage of the vaxxed and Unclean population are hospitalized in given time periods (I would use successive months to also track the effectiveness of the vaccine over time), and compare those percentages. Back of the envelope – if around half of the population is fully vaccinated, and they constitute 36% of hospitalized patients, I’m thinking that the vaccine is more like 50% effective in reducing hospitalization.
To use made-up numbers,
Your study group is 200,000 people, half (100,000) are vaxxed, and half (100,000) are Unclean. This roughly tracks the fully vaxxed rate for the US, which is actually somewhere in the mid-50% range.
36 of the 100,000 vaxxed are hospitalized
74 of the 100,000 Unclean are hospitalized. This tracks the results they reported.
The vax prevented 38 hospitalizations or just over half the number of Unclean hospitalizations.
“36% of hospitalized patients being vaccinated is a higher number than I would have expected.”
It’s a useless number unless it’s known why they were hospitalized.
Also, unvaxxed people might be less health conscious, younger and more likely to be trauma patients, etc.
It’s a useless number unless it’s known why they were hospitalized.
True. But the CDC didn’t limit their study to those hospitalized for COVID treatment. We also don’t know why the Unclean were hospitalized. Maybe the numbers for effectiveness are based on the numbers hospitalized for COVID treatment, but I don’t get the impression the study made that distinction, based on the statement that it included people not hospitalized for COVID.
You go to analysis with the data you have, not the data you wish you had.
Working in a hospital, you likely know this number. But Im basing this statement on what I hear the employees say: “Got a sinus infection and went to the ER”.
Certain people will wait and present at the ER for anything. One woman a few months ago said, “my baby had a toothache, and wouldnt stop crying. I spent 6 hours in the ER waiting to be seen!”
Uh…you dont clog a hospital with trivial cases.
Our oldest has been an ER NP for some years now, and has worked admissions a lot. She informs us there are two types of people working admissions; you can be a SIEVE, or you can be a WALL. She was always a WALL. Somewhat notorious for, for example, when a sixteen-year-old girl comes in at 2:00AM wanting a pregnancy test, turning them away to go to the free clinic in the morning. Apparently the term for that is TURF TO THE STREET.
Indeed it is. And for people who really should have gone to urgent care or just don’t need to be admitted, its TREAT AND STREET.
People on Medicaid don’t pay a penny for medical care. They routinely come to the hospital ED for trivial shit.
What happened to the life or limb model that parents used to follow in regards to an ER visit.
Only time I took my kids to the ER was a skull cut from jumping off a table and a fever we couldn’t break and he started talking delirious
This would be the operative portion here. I’ve read reports of some people using ambulance rides as free taxis, since they won’t pay for it.
I hauled many, many, MediCal patients because they got a free ride. We’d pull up in front of the house, and they would walk out to the ambulance, MediCal card flapping in the breeze.
That’s messed up.
Mid-50% range may be the average across the US, but I’m metropolitan areas will have a higher vax rate. Could even be mid 60% range. I’m assuming most of these hospitals were in metropolitan areas.
The findings effectively show there is no difference in hospitalizations between vaxxed and unvaxxed. Restricting to virus-related hospitalizations would be more informative, but the CDC did not do that. There’s no plausible scenario where they didn’t run an analyses looking at only covid-related cases. Interesting that they only chose to publicize the numbers for all hospitalizations and not covid-related.
Oops, I inverted the numbers… nvm on that. Though, this would now better explain why the CDC only released number on all hospitalizations instead of their analysis on Covid-related hospitalizations.
metropolitan areas will have a higher vax rate
Maybe, maybe not. The populations with the lowest vax rates would be found in metro areas – POCs and Ph.D.s (although the Ph.D.s are statistically insignificant).

“REVEALED: How Biden quietly ended deportation flights to Haiti a week ago and sparked border surge with 10,000 Haitians now living under Texas bridge: FAA bans ’embarrassing’ drone flights overhead showing squalid camp
The Biden administration has been accused of trying to cover up the extent of the migrant crisis after the Federal Aviation Authority (FAA) issued a flight ban over the US-Mexico border to stop drones capturing footage of the more than 10,000 people living camped out under a bridge.
The FAA implemented a two-week flight ban over the Del Rio Port of Entry and the International Bridge in the city of Del Rio, Texas, Thursday night, claiming the move was for ‘special security reasons’ to prevent ‘drones interfering with law enforcement flights on the border.’
The ban effectively grounded a Fox News drone hours after the network released shocking footage showing thousands of migrants living in squalor under the bridge as they crossed the US’s southern border and waited to be processed by Border Patrol.”
https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-10001453/FAA-BANS-drone-flights-showing-10K-migrants-living-filth-Del-Rio-bridge.html
“…thousands of migrants living in squalor under the bridge…”
Well, I wouldnt really expect luxury accommodations.
That comes later when the bennies start rolling in.
Still better than Haiti.
And the Texas Department of Public Safety, which is pissed about the Biden open borders, immediately put the reporter on one of their choppers to resume overflights.
TW: Twitter. Footage of the utter shitshow on the TX border from the DPS chopper.
Ho. Lee. Fuck.
The current run rate of illegals that we know about is over 3mm/year. Nearly all of those will be catch-and-release.
Jesus, We can’t do anything right anymore,
They could have put a floor on that TFR so media could still fly drones to capture footage…but ya, for ‘law enforcement flights’
My question is how are 10,000 Haitians getting to the US-Mexico border? Haiti is an island in the Caribbean, with many, many countries closer to it than Mexico. Hell, the US is closer to Haiti than Mexico is, so if they were taking a clandestine boat ride you would think they would just go straight there. Are they wealthier Haitians who can afford transport to Mexico? Or is someone paying to bring them in?
I’ll take a wild guess and say George Soros.
The apparent utter lack of curiousity about an apparent conspiracy to get thousands (or more) illegals to the border is mind-boggling. Sure, some of them walk the whole way without any kind of support. But many are transported to the border. The transporters include cartel coyotes, but I doubt that there is absolutely no outside funding or involvement. Do we really think the cartels are transporting people from Haiti to Mexico?
At what point does “Biden’s bad month” become “Biden’s bad presidency?”
Electronic Vaccine Passports are HERE NOW: Virginia Department of Health Announces Launch of QR Codes to Verify COVID-19 Vaccination Status
I. Gotta. Get. Outta. Here.
That house down the road from us is still for sale. And Alaska needs more Glibs.
Because the QR code is digitally signed by the Virginia Department of Health, it cannot be altered or forged.
I am not an expert, but this seems doubtful. Does anybody know if this statement is actually true?
Information from QR codes is only available if and when the individual chooses to share it.
Also doubtful.
In VA, the ABC stores will scan driver’s license to challenge them against DMV’s system. I’m not sure how it works exactly but the idea is they immediately tell if an ID is real that way.
An acquaintance in high school bought one of those special printers + hologram kit and started selling fake IDs for $200. He also figured out to add scannable barcodes that weren’t flagged when run through DMV’s system. They were indistinguishable in everyway from Gov issued IDs. The vax QR code should be easy in comparison.
He eventually got shutdown by the FBI. I figured someone ratted on him.
Does anybody know if this statement is actually true?
As with many technologies, the ease of breaking it will be highly implementation specific. As with most cryptography, the most common “hacks” of digital signing involve finding a way around the lock rather than picking the lock.
OT – put some stuff in the forums on your doc. Hopefully that’s an OK way to provide feedback.
Absolutely! Thanks!

Docket: Secure, Digital Access to COVID-19 Immunization Records
I have a (non-government) vax record from Wal-Mart, where I got the Moderna shots. It does have a QR code on it. Of course, my decision was purely voluntary, and based on my age and other factors, not least of which is Mrs. Animal’s health. And downloading and keeping the record was also voluntary. Nobody’s ever asked me for it, but we’re still figuring on eventually returning to our globe-trotting ways, and figured I’d eventually be asked in Germany, or Ireland, or some place with different rules.
Well I have something to discuss with my state rep tonight at their fundraiser.

“What vote? CNN isn’t running a story on a vote…boosters now!” /Biden WH
https://www.cnn.com/2021/09/17/health/fda-vrbpac-booster-meeting/index.html
FDA vaccine advisers vote to recommend booster doses of Covid-19 vaccine in people 65 and older and those at high risk
The FDA panel took two votes:
1) 65yo and older should get a booster under another EUA not a supplement approval to the full pfizer approval.
2) 16-64 should only get a booster after talking to a physician and determining if they are at high risk.
CNN of course leads with the recommendation to give boosters to old people.

Weird flex. How’s those murder rates, fucktard?
Why not sell them at auction and roll the money back into some general fund? Doesn’t make for neat videos I guess.
I’m in favor of the death penalty lately for anyone committing noise pollution. This is a good first step, I guess.
The booming systems are what drives me nuts. Y’all got that problem in NYC?
Like, bass speakers blasting out of the trunk shit? Yeah, sometimes.

You can’t make this shit up.
In other news, supporting Larry Elder or Nikki Minaj makes you a white supremacist.
‘Jeanue had managed to secure unprecedented control over the Titanfall multiplayer apparatus — utilizing something the community refers to as the “Blacklist.”‘
Interesting, but meh.
‘“At the time I was only talking about not wanting to carry around his family member’s teeth, but evidently it’s expected that after I die they’ll knock out my teeth to be distributed to the family members.”‘
Too weird.
“My favorite activity in the game has to be the customization and renovation.”

“Essentially, what this means is that it is a violation of human rights for an individual to be given medical procedures or pharmaceuticals without their voluntary, informed consent.”
Nursing homes have been engaged in the sedatization of their patients as long as I’ve been alive.
Things are finally starting to cool down here. Soon it will be fall. Soon.
Great song – and the video was… whoof. THOSE are some attractive ladies; Absolutely smokin’. (Sorry Q, but Chive doesn’t come close to gals who can skate and look like the trio in that video).
“Younger Buffy was cuter.”
Damn straight.
I never watched Buffy. I think I fell off the very cusp of that age demo. I liked the red-headed friend better between American Pie and How I Met Your Mother. It’s not a definitive thing, it’s just where I landed later. Sarah Michelle Gellar is for me a Weird Al Yankovich reference. Going back and looking at the two of them, Alyson Hannigan is much hotter.
