Two family members are physicians.. they've seen just an astounding number of people sick with Covid who picked up some horse dewormer at the local Tractor Supply Co. to "treat" or "prevent" their illness. It obviously didn't work for them since they ended up in the hospital... these are very commonly the same people who won't get vaccines since they're unproven. Worms in the brain actually might be a decent diagnosis.
- jeffbee 5y agoYesterday in a local paper they featured a front-page story about some dipshit who won't get vaccinated, refuses to wear a mask, and is covered in tattoos from his jaw to his ankles. The rate of severe reactions to tattooing (amputations and whatnot) is 2 in 10000.
- seattle_spring 5y agoCitation needed for that tattoo stat. I'd believe 1 in 5k have a minor infection; I seriously doubt that many are getting amputations or related.
- tzs 5y agoIt appears he may have the rate right for severe reactions, but has too narrow a definition of "severe". See "Severe Adverse Events Related to Tattooing: An Retrospective Analysis of 11 Years", Indian J Dermatol. 2012 Nov-Dec; 57(6): 439–443 [1]. > The incidence of severe adverse medical reactions has been estimated as 0.02%. Infectious and non-infectious severe reactions have been observed. The consequences were medical drug therapies and surgery. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3519250/ https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3519250/
