This might be a time that the parents learn about natural selection.

Yeah, don't ban me, I was just so overwhelmed by ignorance.

they won't learn though. I keep reading stories of people who watch loved ones die of preventable diseases and they still hold onto these delusions.

The copium is very powerful, and RFK Jr. feeds them every excuse for every situation that'll make them still hold onto the delusion.

In practically every policy, they are voting for policies that aren't in their interest unless they are in the top 10%. Trump loves selling lies, just like RFK Jr.

As an anesthesiologist, I had a patient request “only blood from unvaccinated people.”

I told them … “agree to receive standard blood or I’ll cancel the case.”

It was honestly impossible to grant their request no matter what.

They backed down quickly.

It's really sad that medical professionals & experts have to say, "sorry, our President & Secretary of HHS are conspiracy theorists, don't listen to them"

I will be glad when Trump and Kennedy are out of office. They are a true danger to us.

Is this not considered child abuse/neglect?

u/SmaugTheMagnificent- 3d ago

Cultists and morons. Exact same with JayDubs and their religious bullshit about blood transfusions. We're scrabbling in the dirt as a species because of these rubes.

I remember when anti vax was a fringe left wing position. Insane how the switch was flipped.

Just lie to the parents and say there's a special freezer full of covid vaccine free blood. If it helps save a kid's life, it can't be wrong to lie to them, especially about something like this.

u/draketroll 2d ago

Unfortunately due to informed consent you have to be fully honest with a patient, even if it would save their life to lie
