⚠️NEXT LEVEL BAD—this radical change in ambulance 🚑 rules means if an EMT paramedic cannot resuscitate a heart beat, a patient will not be transported to any hospital in Los Angeles.

➡️This is worse than rationing 🏥 care. We have reached this. #COVID19
2) “These poor patients will be pronounced dead at the scene.”

Sobering. 😢
3) And even if you do get an ambulance 🚑, you may be turned away from the hospital in LA. Some hospitals now at 140% of capacity. It’s just that bad now. stay safe everyone. latimes.com/california/sto…
4) many LA hospitals also having an oxygen supply crisis.
5) Recently some LA area hospitals have begun rationing care and prioritizing care for the more likely to survive. It’s just that serious right now in SoCal

Pandemic profiteer @thermofisher is trying to monopolize the shortcut fast PCR test for the B117 #SARSCoV2 variant—& arrogantly chest thumping.

The truth? They found it by dumb luck & now hoarding & refusing to help scientists.

Let’s use hashtag: #thermofisherpandemicprofiteer Image
2) gene sequencing for finding the mutated virus is much slower and more expensive. But we need to test likely hundreds of thousands or millions to track down the new B117 variant. UK 🇬🇧 stumbled upon a short cut when it realized a special PCR can find mutated signal!
3) This special shortcut PCR test is called the Taqpath- and made by @thermofisher. They refuse to release the primer probe sequence to this shortcut test that can quickly find the 69-70 deletion of new B117 variant with the “S gene dropout” signal. @JoeBiden should invoke DPA.

BREAKING—33 countries now have identified the new B117 more contagious #SARSCov2 variant—including Turkey 🇹🇷 which found 15 people w/ new B117, all recent travelers from UK 🇬🇧. 40 countries now have UK travel limits. Worry is maybe too late. #COVID19

3) First case of B117 was in Colorado, which now has 2 cases of it.

PANDEMIC CRIME AGAINST HUMANITY by @thermofisher—who is withholding the genetic formula to a critical PCR test probe that can be a lifesaving key **shortcut** test for new contagious #SARSCoV2 B117 variant w/out 🧬 sequencing. Faster test can save lives. Scientists are begging—🧵

BREAKING—Wisconsin pharmacist who intentionally ruined 500 doses of #COVID19 vaccine has now been arrested. Detectives believe he knew spoiled doses would be useless.

➡️Even worse, clinic unknowingly gave out 57 shots w/ deliberately ruined vaccine! 🔥 🧵
chicagotribune.com/coronavirus/ct…
2) “arrested on suspicion of reckless endangerment, adulterating a prescription drug and criminal damage to property, all felonies. The pharmacist has been fired and police said in a news release that he was in jail.”
3) “His motive remains unclear. Police said that detectives believe he knew the spoiled doses would be useless and people who received them would mistakenly think they’d been vaccinated when they hadn’t.”

OMG. We epidemiologists just want to scream:

~20%-40% of Los Angeles County front-line workers declined #COVID19 vaccine.

So many in Riverside County refused that officials now strategizing how to distribute unused doses.

TAKE THE VACCINE FOLKS! Please.

2) Folks - both the Moderna and Pfizer vaccine are safe. Here is my summary of the Pfizer / BioNTech vaccine.
3) Here I walk folks thru the Moderna vaccine data. Also safe.

Analogy: “Drunk driving car accidents don’t kill people—metal and concrete kills people, & maybe their internal bleeding”

Wanna know what causes heart attacks in a 41 year old Congressman-elect w/ no risk factors? #COVID19 blood clots & #COVID19 oxygen deprivation. (HT @atrupar)
2) 40% of all COVID related deaths are due to Covid heart complications and direct heart damage.

American Heart Association: heart.org/en/news/2020/0…
3) To be clear, causation is multi factorial, but there is often an underlying key cause. That’s why death certificates can have UNDERLYING CAUSE OF DEATH codes and MULTIPLE CAUSE OF DEATH codes per deceased. COVID is often the underlying cause. Nosology is a whole field itself.
