...and he of course told me he was out of his mind busy. He doesn't generally work with Covid patients, but he's obviously around sick people with similar symptoms every day and understands treatment protocols, testing, etc.
So I asked him if he has noticed a big rise in cases because of the Delta Variant. He said absolutely. So I asked him, "how are you testing for this variant?"
He said..."I'm not sure."
I of course know there is no such test, so I asked "are you just using the same PCR test you've been using?"
He told me he wasn't sure, but thought that was the case.
I then asked him "aren't those tests unable to differentiate between viruses?"
I swear to God he looked at me, chuckled to himself and said "honestly man, we just go by what we hear on the radio or the news."
At this point I had one more question.
I asked him if they've started treating Covid patients with Hydroxychloroquine or Ivermectin now that the studies show they are safe and highly effective?
He said he "didn't really know" what Ivermectin was and that they weren't even considering HCQ. Remdesevir was the main treatment protocol.
What did I learn from this conversation?
Our hospitals are enabling this charade to continue AND letting people needlessly die.
Grant funding rules the narrative.
The narrative rules the minds of the sheep.
Western medicine needs a COMPLETE overhaul.
Big Pharma is the world's most accomplished serial killer.
We must destroy them.
You've also learned people we trust in important positions have forgotten how to think for themselves. Academia did a great job of teaching them just "do as you're told by those above you", and "don't ask questions or you'll look like a conspiracy nut job and lose everything".
The entire system of promotion and placement of personnel in positions of leadership is designed specifically to root out those capable of self-directed thought and problem-solving.
The people actually capable of leadership are tagged as "boat rockers" and sent packing.
And this is what happens to a society who elevates cowards, we all become slaves.
At the "humorous" end is Brazil (1985) https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0088846/
At the reality end is the usual "utopia" of organized and industrialized mass murder and soul-crushing tyranny (Fascism, Nazism, Communism, etc).
So yeah. Either way, it's slavery.
I used to be in medicine. I know for a fact, they spend substantial money and time to "educate" staff about new protocols that they must follow in staff meetings, so everyone is on the same page. I'm glad I left, because I would be fired.
Doctors not looking into this are either evil or stupid. Both are dangerous doctors.
I worked in a government bureaucracy for 26 years. They literally teach that to be a good leader, you must first prove yourself to be a "good follower" - which, to them, means "do what we tell you to and don't question those giving the orders". Those that advance the highest are those that have the least moral compass.
I'm sure it's much the same in corporate medicine - push the protocols and drugs we tell you or you commit career suicide.
It's much the same in the military too.
A general rule of thumb is that officers don't make it past Lt. Col, or at most Col if they're competent leaders.
Only politicians in uniform-type douchebags make flag ranks.
"Those that advance the highest are those that have the least moral compass.
And you stayed 26 years? Im Curious, did you ever promote? Or did you stay entry level your entire career?
And are we talking the DMV level service Or federal?
26 years was combined between a couple of federal positions (6 years) and 20 at local level until I took retirement. Way above DMV level in type of work performed but a bureaucracy at the administrative level for sure. Yes - I promoted but not above "blue collar" crew management level - by choice, saw enough of upper levels from there to know I did not fit that mold (can't keep my mouth shut if I think something is bad for my crew members, etc.). I Focused more on specialization/technical aspects of my job rather than studying/positioning for my next promotion opportunity - I'm happier doing something useful than I am politicking to get noticed.
Exactly. My SIL was nominated valedictorian of Santa Clara University. In my opinion, after having a couple former students of mine receive the same "honor" at their respective Universities, I realized that these designations are actually all about raising up the individuals who have proven to be the most complicit, dutiful obedient sheep of their entire class. These are people who do everything they are told and have higher than average levels of motivation. They are simultaneously highly obedient and highly loyal to the chain of command. All the people I know who received this recognition are not only still asleep but deeply committed to continuing in that state.
