Vaccines don't prevent you from getting any disease.  That would be news worthy I would think.  Polio, smalllox, mumps, measles, whooping cough???

Had COVID and have been Vaccinated Doctor at Mercy Hospital in Springfield said it don’t matter.

Nephew was to pay for Funeral with Life Insurance. Funeral Home said with COVID they didn’t trust Life Insurance because they have a clause saying they don’t pay on people dying on a Pandemic but we could pay for it and be reimbursed by the Government.

That is all I know on it. They didn’t say anything about a Link and I didn’t argue with them on it.

There's lots of things I can't see or understand. Actually most things.  That certainly doesn't mean it doesn't happen or doesn't  work. I'm still not sure mice don't come from rotting hay or old dirty rags. Sure glad there is some smart people in this world. I remember polio and how we all got on a school bus to go to the hospital to get a shot. I don't know how it worked but it did and  saved a lot of people being from a terrible disease. You can make your own list of diseases that aren't big issues any more because medical science has come up with an answer.

If there is a more dispicable, rotten, underhanded "business" than a funeral home....... I'll be dammed if I know what it is.   

 Phuck' Them and what they trust !

If you really want to get your mind twisted about what modern medicine is up to, read about Crispr and treatments for things like sickle cell.  Alzheimer's is probably next up (or at least not that far off) for a no joke cure.  They've figured out how to make and inject billions of nano particles carrying a gene cutting  mRNA sequence that actually seeks out and disables the faulty DNA in cells that cause these diseases.  Sounds like science fiction but it's not.  They started out modifying cells and injecting them but there are parts of the body that are very difficult to extract cells from.  Thus the nano particle effort.  And it freaking works!

More molecular warfare, be pretty cool if the can develop something that whips Alzheimers and Sickle cell.

It's an amazing time.  If you're interested there's a very good book that goes back and covers the basic research that's led us to what's happening now.  It's about Jennifer Doudna and her associates and their discoveries.  "The Code Breaker", it's highly recommended by me and a lot of others who are much smarter than me.  The things they were able to do are nothing short of astounding.
