Exactly!! Whiners and second guessers tick me off.

If someone wants a drug that may work, let them get it. It is their business.

Serious drug reactions like organ damage or blindness will cost everyone in higher healthcare costs. The drug is also used for Lupus and can severe side effects. I know someone that has had lupus their entire life and they question what is worse, lupus or the drugs.

Today in Texas we have our first "Community" transfer of Covid-19.
5277 Tested
194 cases of Covid-19
5 deaths
est. Population 29.4 million

Sometimes these numbers need to be put in context.

Pediatric Flu Deaths in Texas for the 2019-2020 flu season are at 15 so far.

Cases of Lung Injury associated with Vaping in Texas is at 250.

Texas COVID cases 304. Deaths 5, in the entire State of Texas.
How many of those 5 were already sick or compromised immune status IDK.

I just saw an ad suggesting CBD oil may help symptoms of COVID........maybe more snake oil ads are on there way.

If I was one of those people, I would be worried of catching COVID.

Yes, I would think those with lung injury from vaping would be more likely to die from even the regular flu. Wuhan Flu would be much worse.

Don't forget vaping deaths at 4 only one behind COVID-19.
No new COVID-19 deaths in Texas reported today.
One of the 5 COVID-19 deaths was in his late 90s.

I have no idea if this is accurate, but hopefully reading this leads people to do more research.
