My friend's 12-yr old niece is in Elmhurst Hospital on a ventilator with covid-19. I have sent him everything that I can (including how ivermectin got an 81 year old man off the vent) and he refuses to show anything to his sister that could potentially save his niece's life. He says he's afraid that if something went wrong his family would never forgive him. He tells me to stop sending information so we are done.
I never thought that I would think of my friend as a coward but I am so angry and hurt by his refusal that I am literally shaking. How do they not understand that the longer that girl is on the ventilator the greater the odds are of her dying???
Another one bites the dust because of frigging ignorance and I am beside myself.
Update 5/1/2020. The girl is awake. Thank God. Other than that I have no idea about her condition. Being that she is 12, I hope that the odds are in her favor.

He's already told me to stop sending information. Friendship is dead. Tired of crying about this.
I've lost quite a few friends.
How do you handle that? There are so few that I really let in.
First, be friends with more people. Your network is your net worth. Think of it like stocks. When you lose in one area, it won't kill you.
Second, and probably a less popular view, is that you're putting your personal views above someone else's in their own life. That is a recipe for failure each and every time. I also have friends who are in the 4-6% and it sucks but what sucks worse is the mental, physical, emotional, and spiritual drain you choose to put yourself through in order to obtain negative result.
How do I handle that? By accepting that the world is an abundant place and that new frens are super easy to make.
Third, do not weep for others before they are dead. There are WAY MORE people to save, and who are ready and willing to be saved, too.
I am not a cold anon. But I do recommend shutting that emotional shit off ASAP. Use your logical brain to make decisions for YOU moving forward. You made it this far, fren. Keep going.
