Re: tromethamine causes the arrested heart to respond to resuscitative efforts, does it not?

Expand full comment

Not in my understanding - it is just used to "clean up" the mess (lower pH) resulting from cardiac arrest. I'm not even sure how well-proven it is at doing so; and anyway bicarbonates are apparently the normal choice. But I only devoted 10 minutes reading on the drug as the whole thing seemed to be in an irrelevant ball park.

Holy cow, I took a look at the report referenced in footnote 10. Get a load of the other meds list: aspirin, atenolol, dulcolax, fenofibrate, lasix, PRN neurontin, glimepiride, ketoconazole cream, lisiniopril, lovastatin, metformin XR, PRN nitroglycerin, omeprazole, zofran, K-dur, flomax, kenalog cream, maxzide

This person appears to have heart problems (taking redundant lipid-lowering meds), diabetes (taking redundant diabetes meds) with associated neuropathy, high blood pressure, skin issues (possibly fungal among others), possible GERD (PPI), nausea, kidney problems, possibly more. No wonder they're presumably anxious to get vaccinated, this is a walking collection of comorbidities.

I became so distracted looking up the various drugs, forgot to mention the point of my comment, which was that it would be interesting to see if this person has any heart issues fallout or other kinds of side effects a few weeks down the road because of the overdose.

I have no idea if there's any followup available on VAERS reports.

Well, he is 71. Lots of the elderly who end up in VAERS - including for "breakthrough" infection leading to death - are crock full of preexisting conditions. Which complicates my thinking on the controversy of whether the CVAX has a "healthy recipient" bias. No such bias at work in 1752999.

I really struggled to contain my personal opinion, which is that a lot of the symptoms are likely (undoubtedly, IMO) caused by some of the other medications, and the whole constellation is possibly (undoubtedly, IMO) a result of following the government food recommendations, and/or addiction to unhealthy food ("healthy" being a controversial term, of course).

71 isn't that old, at least from my perspective as almost 68 ;)

Yes, it all depends on the person. I don't know if it was always like this, just under-acknowledged, but these days it's more common for two adults in the same age range to look decades apart than for them to look the same (obviously there have always been such exceptions - LaLanne towing boats around at 70! - but now 'age is just a number' seems like the rule)

Since "Medical Errors" kill as many as 250,000 people annually in the US, I'm not sure why anyone finds this kind of thing surprising.

At least they're not even pretending to care about kids at this point. Their honesty is appreciated 👶☠️

That's really harsh. Look, it's just a fact that after 20 months the big mystery has finally been solved: It's the kids that have been keeping us from "going back to normal" all along! They obviously deserve what they get.

So it's not "all about the kids" anymore?

Purple, grey, orange... What difference, at this point, does it make?

Expand full comment

Potentially, none. Potentially, the same difference as a teen receiving 3 doses at once. Who knows.

No worries, I was just channeling Hillary Clinton, should have known nothing about her is funny. Anyway I really like this report, it's illustrative. And yes I agree, who knows?

Actually I will put it like this... Question: Who knows?

Did you see the Turkish doctor who injected adult doses into babies?

I would inject 10 doses into that guy's arm in a heartbeat.

I would have thought calling the results, "research" would indicate premeditated intent, rather than accidental delivery.

Might as well make lemonade outta those lemons!

Apparently the correct dose is pretty dangerous. It's unlikely that. a bit more is significantly more dangerous. A little bit of myocarditis is like a little bit pregnant. Sadly, kids have been abused by parents throughout history. This probably isn't the worst.

I don't have an opinion on whether 1.3 -3X might be a significant difference yet. For the purposes of this article, it's more that Pfizer/BioNTech/FDA can't even deliver "safety" to child recipients *on their own terms*.

Trust no one. Ever. Always double check things before anything is injected into you, affects your money or possessions.
