The BG Health Care Thread: Decreasing the Surplus Population

[Mertron]

they’re voting to get rid of the hepatitis b shot today also

[Mertron]

also, everything I’ve read is that they are getting rid of the -combination- chicken pox/mmr vaccine, not the vaccines themselves; probably why they even state in the article that there is confusion as to what they’re actually doing

[Tyrath]

They're getting rid of the combo shot based on a retracted/fraudulent paper by Wakefield lol

[Elizara]

Lol. I guess babies get more shots now and I hope they can keep the hepatitis shot. Seriously, not getting your shots is playing with fire.

I just hope with all this messing with vaccines we don't end up with a lot of sick kids in a few years.

[Byrthnoth]

Fucking wild, lol. We are going to give kids three times as many shots (all less validated for safety than MMR at this point) because ??? social media let dumb people organize too easily ???

[Byrthnoth]

I want to believe in the principles of democracy but I've been getting a lot of 5 minute conversation with the average voter vibes since social media algorithms started connecting people who are stupid in the same way.

No, they're trying to get rid of them.

RFKjr's vaccine advisory board has voted against vaccinating children 4 and under against measles, mumps, rubella, and chickenpox.

Now covid vaccine for all ages

To be clear, the MMRV shot does have a slightly elevated risk of febrile seizures (like 1 additional per 3500 children vs MMR + Varicella separate shots on the same day) for children under 4 and doing MMR and Varicella in separate shots has been the recommendation for that age group since 2009 - but docs/parents were still allowed to give MMRV if they desired (one shot is nicer than two for needle-scared children). My kids all got them in 2 shots.

This change just makes it so MMRV is not allowed for under-4, MMR + Varicella in separate shots only.

Researchers have slowed the rate of Huntington's disease by 75% after 3 years in human trials. It requires an 18 hour brain surgery and gene therapy, so it'll be cost prohibitive, but it is a remarkable result.

One subject, who was medically retired due to the diagnosis, returned to work. Others, expected to be wheelchair bound, are still walking.

Only in the freest of countries! That's awesome to hear about though.

I hate that they say it resembles Parkinson's when they're wildly different disorders. But damn, if they could fix this I bet they actually COULD fix Parkinson's.

Costco is going to start selling Ozempic and Wegovy to people without insurance for half price. You still have to have a Rx though. $500 a pop. Gold card members or whatever there called get a 2% cash back with every purchase.

500? how much is it with insurance?

[Tyrath]

Half price so presumably $1000

[Cream Soda]

Half price so presumably $1000

oh i thought that was half price the non insured price; hence me asking about the insured price

I should stand outside Costco and hand out business cards to my gray market side hustle

I made a reddit post today about the highly pure retatrutide I got tested at like 930am this morning

https://www.reddit.com/r/Retatrutide/s/GHnEWEV0dT

I've received 32 message requests since then asking for my retatrutide supplier.

Can't talk reta sourcing on reddit, so I direct them to the pinned post on twitter

https://x.com/archibaldcrane/status/...qcTiaHPBA&s=19

From there, if they want access to the source doc I request a venmo/paypal donation for access. So far today, 1 $15 Venmo donation and 6 Paypal donations totalling $130.

I started this reta source doc paywall scheme on September 12th. So far I've stacked up $764 in donations.

I'm actually amazed that they don't let you talk about it.

Don't worry, they run ads for peptide sellers on reddit that overcharge by 10x or more

But yeah we aren't allowed to talk about sources for reta (which isn't that surprising, it's a patented non-FDA approved drug)
