Man whose wife won a lawsuit to treat his COVID-19 with ivermectin has died

The right to die, literally. Keep 'em coming.

I do wonder if anyone has taken a survey - if such could be taken - of how many Americans have died of Covid and how many have died from quack "cures" and "treatments" beforehand? I'd say the results might surprise us. Not.

I figured out a way to solve the covid anti-vaxxer problem.

Convince the anti-vaxxers that dying of covid is the same thing as the rapture. They'll be happy to die in droves then

Or that their deaths will assure Trump of victory in 2024, even if he doesn't run. A corpse for president? Stranger things have happened!

Stranger things have not happened...

COVID restriction opponents suspected of plot to kill German official

I don’t bare anti-vaccers any ill will. Sure it’s frustrating, but a lot of their resistance is anxiety driven by the barrage of misinformation. The people who have chosen to exploit the divide for political gain are the real problem. All I know is that Covid killed my unvaccinated 51 year old wife while her newly vaccinated 97 year old asthmatic gran survived infection without any symptoms.

That's an important distinction, Stephen. The people who are pushing misinformation, either cynically for their own advancement or simply because they disguise ignorance as certainty - they are the ones who make me angriest.

That's a stark comparison, Stephen. I'm so sorry about your wife; a life cut short is very sad. In fact, 3 years ago, my own wife died at age 55, and - probably hard to believe for some guys here - that also seemed "too young."

I hope you, your children and your gran continue ok.

Respect to someone who fact-checks himself. It's a pity tv presenters and politicians don't follow your example.

Leaked hospital records show routine 675% markups for basic items, like stitches.

That is ****ing disgraceful, all but criminal. US Health Service is ****ed up if they are charging those sort of prices. And nobody queries their bills??
