"probable" ivermectin poisoning? wonder how many people die from "probable" chemotherapy poisons or all those mental health poisons drs dole out like candy?

i see no diff b/t legal or illegal drugs. one is a complete fool if you trust anything big pharma says and they have dr's and politicians in their pocketbooks but thats what we get when we vote for a for mega profit healthcare system. theres no honor or truth in greed. american is a very dumbed down society all the way around though
Chemotherapy saved my wife's life.
 
I don't know. This smells a little fishy to me. I think that all of MAGA should up their dosage to see if this is just some ObamaLibDemSoros fake news. Let's go, MAGA! You've got some ivermectin to consume! Bigly!

chemo is like prayers always the credit never to blame. its also like vegas who lets a few winners but the large majority are losers. i know many it killed or ruined.
What do you think would have happened if they hadn't had chemo? Anyone with the least bit of medical understanding knows that the whole concept of chemo is that it's an attempt to poison the cancer faster than the person with the cancer. Chemo has never been touted as a panacea. The first chemo drugs came from poison gas research in WWI. It's about giving people a chance that didn't have another one. It really sucked as an experience but I'd have been dead without it.
 
I've read that in a number of places that the percentage of Americans who regularly went to church and were active Christians was much smaller in the colonial period than it was later in the 19th and most of the 20th Centuries. And that was especially true, ironically, in the Southern colonies.
I’m not arguing that the United States was founded as a Christian nation. It wasn’t.

Lack of regular church attendance is not indicative of people not believing in Christianity.

The colonies and the early United States were exceptionally rural societies; neighbors might be miles apart. Rural villages were often a crossroads with 1-2 buildings. The locals were likely poor. The money and/or time to build churches likely didn’t exist; and, why build a church when few people could reach it and return home in one day’s travel.

Most roads in the rural US weren’t paved until the 20th century. Those roads were mudpits for much of the winter and after most heavy rains. Getting to-and-from church wasn’t guaranteed; and, cows needed milking 7 days a week, twice a day.

Some of those people who didn’t regularly attend church practiced their faith at home.

That said, even if a vast majority of American citizens regularly attended church and were openly Christians (they weren’t), the Founding Fathers were not all Christians and they did not create a Christian nation. The Constitution wasn’t created by a majority of Americans; it was created by a tiny minority.

This is strictly personal experience but I went to the bicentennial of Bear Marsh Baptist Church in 1957 in Beautancus , North Carolina in Duplin County. It has never been thickly settled, never had much money and always been scattered to this day. They still built a church before we built a country. That and those conditions for travel, homebuilding, farming and everything else necessary for life was lived under the same conditions. If they wanted to go , they could have gone. Remember that this was 150 years after white people came to America and at the tail end of the first wave of the Great Awakening. Those numbers represented a serious decrease in church membership because of choice and not opportunity as best as I can determine.

WOW! A shout-out for for Bear Marsh Church AND Beautancus! A fun game we would play as kids is getting those not from the area to try an pronounce Beautanaus. The pronunciation I grew up with was "Beau - tank- us." My favorite "wrong" pronunciation was "Byoot -a - nay - us".

You are correct that PUBLIC HEALTH IS A NUMBERS GAME.

By any chance are you a biostatitician? Are you a biostatistican at the top of your field? Are you part of a cross collaborative peer reviewing team of top of their field biostaticitans?

If not, maybe sit this one out on the aggregate cost benefit impact of therapeutic interventions on our nations public health.
