I'm an ER Doctor and Have Bad News About COVID

[I'mnotdeadyet]

Please don't appoint yourself the arbiter of when a thread has run its course.

If you're done with the discussion it's ok to just stop posting. No announcements or pronouncements necessary.

I will decide that for myself, thank you. If someone specifically calls me out, I intend to determine at that time whether I will respond. If someone doesn't wish me to respond, then don't quote me. Furthermore, my comment was intended to imply that this thread has run it's course insofar as I am concerned. I'm sorry you were unable to infer that.

I looked this one up in Snopes, and it says Outdated. So it's not only an urban myth, it's an old one. Nothing at all about the nurse suing the hospital. Apparently someone came up with the highly dubious story to begin with, and then it was embellished.

Surprised you fell for this one, Win. It practically screams, "Fake story!" at you.

Surprised you missed post #29. It's easy to read.

Post #29 does not in any way support this story, Win. The first link just points out the difficulty in identifying a death due to coronavirus, as opposed to a death with coronavirus.

The second link comes from the Foundation for Economic Education, a "libertarian think tank with a right-center bias." Enough said. I don't want to get into politics again.
