Well my tv says I can eat cake all day sitting by the pool, take a pill and my hair will regrow, my belly fat will melt away, have the libido of a 22 year old, and I won't even need a job to pay for it.
My father was on it and needless to say he's not around any longer. He had all the known side effects from it as well. I wouldn't take Lipitor if someone paid me to do so. I know those types of drugs are bad news. I never cared for fatty foods anyway, so avoiding them isn't a big deal for me.Never take cholesterol lowering drugs like lipitor. Cholesterol is not bad for you. Your body needs it to heal and function. High ldl cholesterol isn't a condition, it's a red flag that something's wrong with you. When you have damaged or inflamed arteries, your body sends ldl cholesterol to plug the leaks to help your body heal. Hdl cholesterol is then sent to sweep away the ldl cholesterol. When you have a chronic condition, you don't have enough hdl cholesterol to get rid of the ldl cholesterol so the ldl cholesterol keeps building up and blocks the arteries. If you take lipitor, you lower the cholesterol which can help unclog your arteries, but you also rip the bandaid off the wound in your damaged artery. Cholesterol also makes all your adrenal hormones. It makes pregnenolone (protects the brain), aldosterone (makes the kidneys function), cortisol (for stress response), DHEA (helps metabolism and waste processing), progesterone, testosterone, and estrogen (sex hormones). If you chose to take lipitor and keep making poor food choices instead of eating right and exercising, don't be surprised if you end up with Alzheimer's, kidney stones, have anxiety, having diabetes, and have sexual problems.
I really, really wish they would make all those stupid TV prescription drug ads illegal. Besides being annoying, I don't see what purpose is served telling laypeople about drugs they need a doctor to prescribe. If they need it, their doctor will know and prescribe it for them. There's no need to them "ask their doctor about it" as all these commercials suggest. If they can't ban the ads, instead I'd love for a law to be passed allowing doctors to bill the drug companies for the time they waste talking to patients who ask about some drug they saw an ad for. That would get the drug companies to voluntarily stop the ads, or face massive payouts to physicians.Well my tv says I can eat cake all day sitting by the pool, take a pill and my hair will regrow, my belly fat will melt away, have the libido of a 22 year old, and I won't even need a job to pay for it.
If you want a chance to get the vaccine early, search for a phase 3 trial of a vaccine near you and try to enter if you can, and they may even pay you to do it. I got in the Johnson and Johnson phase 3 trial and got the shot the end of November. I reacted to the shot so I know it wasn't the placebo, and I had pain at the injection site...
I know different outlets might count differently so maybe you guys who are avid stats consumers can answer this question for me. When people report the death rate of C19 are they using the Case Fatality Rate or the Infection Fatality Rate? Since some reports say that actual infections might be eight times or so the confirmed cases, dividing # of deaths by that number rather than just confirmed positive cases would reduce the death rate vastly. Which one are we getting?
Some reading on these rates and the difficulty of calulating them that I was looking at.

There are plenty of people out there who don't want anything to do with this Vaccine.
Personally I will get it once most who want it have it. All I ask is they make it as easy
to get as a flu shot.
My point being, if you want it, don't complain about how hard it is just to get it,
just get it in a few weeks. If you don't want it, don't get it. I really doubt the Government
will make you get it.
I work for a large Farm that was hit by the Virus hard in the Fall.
The Father got it, had almost no symptoms, 75 years old with a worn out
hip that needs replaced.
His son got it, was home sick for 2 weeks, 52 years old with bad lungs but
got well on his own and lost over 10 lbs, changing him from Obese to normal.
Grandson with Asthma got it, had almost no symptoms, he is about 30 and weighs
320 lbs. 5 other farms workers got it ranging from 20 to 65 years old, no one was hospitalized
and no one is in a hurry to get this shot. All three people tested positive for the Virus.
This Vaccine is a great thing, we are on our way out of this mess.
Glad they are made it through ok, but we are not anywhere on 'the way out'. Things are about to get much worse.
