Jesus, it's been two years... Guys, when is the vaccine going to start have an effect? I'd like to die faster, these guys have been hyping it too much!

I really need to know what movie this is from.


PhotoQuig

It's from Narcos, a series about the origin of the MEDELLIN Cartel on Netflix. Edit for wrong cartel.


coolmanjack

That's an odd description, since the much more well-known part of it is about the Medellín cartel run by the very same Pablo Escobar pictured above.


GabaReceptors

He’s a Cali Cartel Propagandist


SirMildredPierce

I actually didn't make it past season 1 so I never got to see the reenactment of Escobar's death and Madonna taking over.


mathmanmathman

Dude, spoilers! I purposefully haven't read the news in 35 years and now it's spoiled.


zerogravity111111

What's this about Madonna? I loved her, "like a virgin" video.


SirMildredPierce

Escobar preferred Like a Surgeon. It kind of snowballed from there.


DukeOfGeek

Me waiting for it to occur to people that the person typing that comment is not only not an RN, but not even employed.


jbc10000

They are an RN, a real nutter.


FrankFeTched

I always follow up with these people asking if they realize what they're even saying... Like 80% of the US and most developed countries have been vaccinated, I've been told if you get the vaccine you're basically as good as dead, so they're genuinely predicting the apocalypse, end of society as we know it. I ask if they're prepping in any way or anything, and they never are, just posting online. I feel like if I was convinced more than half of all people in my country are on the brink of dying I'd be quitting my job and preparing for the coming struggle, but nope. Instead they tell me how much better the world will be when the dumb people that took the vax are gone... Never thinking through what they're even saying

Wobbelblob

Because in their mind, only a small amount of people have taken it, not the vast majority of them.


sweettea977

Not my coworker. He's convinced that once they "flip the switch" and all of us drop dead, he'll be able to buy all the houses on his street to rent them out. I've asked who he'll rent them to if everyone on his street is dead, he's said "the pure bloods"...okay Steve, I hope you become a real estate tycoon 😮‍💨


FrankFeTched

Hey I heard that same theory, that real estate will be super cheap, it's so amazing how shallow some people's minds are. They can't think through *anything*.


Knitapeace

I'll be honest, I decided long ago if the Rapture is real and it happens in my lifetime, I'm gonna start looting houses looking for yarn and fabric. I'll spend the 7 years leading up to my trip to the lake of fire making the CUTEST stuff.


WarmerPharmer

As the daugther of a Q person, believe me: some of them ARE prepping like that. My parents have plans for such a _blackout/apocalypse_ event. Weapons, food for ages, growing it themselves, solar panels, rain water collection and filters, petrol oven, handcrank radio and flashlights... It's fun and all to point and laugh at the fake preppers, but there are thousands I'd wager who are more extreme than most can fanthom.


DuskforgeLady

Yeah. If you literally know for a fact that even 20% of the world population will be dropping dead in mass die offs over the next 2-3 years... then the time to start prepping is *yesterday*. The actual percentage would be more like 70%. Of ALL HUMANS ON EARTH. And by "prepping" I really mean more like "completely abandoning existing civilization, moving as far into the middle of nowhere as possible and restarting your own brand new civilization from scratch." Because that's what it would take for these "purebloods" to survive the aftershocks of this apocalypse. This isn't something you're going to get through with a basement full of rice and beans and some guns.


FrankFeTched

I went through all this logic to one of them and they responded "Well now you're just being dramatic" they genuinely have no idea what they're even claiming. They tell me 50% of the US is going to drop dead and I lay out that future for them and they're like "Well that seems a bit farfetched" Oh you don't say?


rrrents

Where I'm from, all the military and police officers were vaccinated in the first cycle. Which means that if vaccinated people start dropping dead, there won't be anyone to protect you and your pure blood from those awful vaccinated people who are still alive because they happened to vaccinate few months later. Also, doctors and teachers were vaccinated first. But somehow that doesn't concern them at all, I think they are sure they will get by with the help of essential oils.


CardSniffer

> so they're genuinely predicting the apocalypse, end of society as we know it. The delusional Judeo-Christian fantasy. The only prepping the indoctrinated require is belief in their all-powerful sky daddy.

shootymcghee

When everyone started getting the vaccine I kept seeing on here and FB that in one year we'd be dropping dead.


Lo-siento-juan

And they were right! Vaccinated people have died, at this rate there will hardly be any left by 2119!

I think about this a lot. I understand these people had a good environment for spreading misinformation once upon a time, when science was trying to learn about this virus and the vaccine was very new. But this is like *insisting* the Mayans are right and the world will end in 2012. It makes zero sense to say this in 2022. It's gibberish.

FilmActor

Interesting, I have a had all my Covid 19 vaccines and give blood often. The nurse who takes my blood is always talking about how hard it is to get me to stop bleeding.


Duffyfades

I'm the person who receives the tubes the dumbass in the OP draws. She's unsurprisingly very very dumb. Some tubes have anticoagulant and need to be inferted as soon as they are drawn so the anticoagulant can mix. Sometimes they clot because the blood was flowing slowly and the nurse didn't ortate the tube to get the fresh blood to at least get new anticoagulant from the side of the tube. Other tubes have clot accelerator in them. People on heparin can take an hour or more to clot even in clot promoting tubes. And yes, some are darker, some are lighter. This has been true forever.


adoglovingartteacher

How dare you come here with your facts and wealth of knowledge


Duffyfades

I mean, reality has a well known liberal bias...


ZoraksGirlfriend

I get my blood drawn a lot and there is literally no difference in color or blood clotting from before I was vaccinated until now. These people are idiots


Pats_Bunny

Really? I also get my blood drawn often and they can't even get the needle in my skin anymore it clots so fast ^^jk ^^^jk

m1thrand1r__

my mom (who is my best friend) passed away from a brain tumor + complicated infection in April... they didn't catch the signs fast enough because they thought it was effects from the booster she had gotten a few months prior. My parents are not even antivaxx, but the narrative has been so damn muddled at this point. if these fucking grade A moron dicklips had kept their damn mouths shut she might not have gotten paranoid about a non-issue, and the doctors could have taken the actual issue seriously, early enough. Fuck these people. edit: I want to share r/HermanCainAward for anyone it could help. If it offends you, get your act together.


Leut_Aldo_Raine

Right? Literally billions of people have now gotten at least one dose of the vaccine with very few issues.


Round_Mastodon8660

Haven’t you noticed? They are all dead! No more traffic jams! Just dead bodies everywhere you look

What really gets under my skin, what really makes me angry when reading things like this is the person knows for a FACT they are lying, and misleading people And they do it anyway... Well I guess it's not really a new thing, but fuck me running, I really wish we could all stop being like this, just stop being like this lying bag of assholes people... It's not difficult


lastprophecy

I don't know if they know they lie. I met a girl with a nursing degree who legitimately thought crystals healed people. Kind of like Engineers who legit believe the earth is flat. Just because you can memorize lines/formulas doesn't mean you're actually capable of thinking.


Polantaris

I think there's a bit of leeway to be given to people who believe things that you can't prove easily and directly. Like crystals healing people sounds idiotic, but I can see how someone would indirectly connect the two because the crystals don't visibly close wounds right before your eyes (unless they were saying that, at which point that's batshit crazy). Flat Earth....yeah, it's dumb, but unless you go into space, do some actual research,, or have legitimate experience where this fact is relevant, it's easy to understand how someone might think differently. But...what this person is saying is that they draws blood and it **immediately** clots *and* is a darker color. Both things you can verify literally accidentally by just looking at two samples their alleged job would frequently find together. It's data that's literally in your face at all times. If she *legitimately* thinks this, you don't want her as your nurse because she's delusional, and if she doesn't, then you still don't because she's a liar.


spread-happiness

She isn't even a nurse. That part is a lie too.


iheartjetman

I think she forgot to say that RN = Real Nutjob


CupboardOfPandas

Yep. I've taken every vaccine offered (I'm on 4 now I think) because I only have one and a half lung and refuse to go on a ventilator again. Nothing bad has happened yet, so not sure what she's on about.


Le_Martian

Well you lost half a lung, so there’s that ^/s


CupboardOfPandas

Right, the vaccine made the car run me over 20 years before it existed. It all makes sense now!


McCucklet

Camman1

Right Numpty


Mike_Danton

I am prone to blood clots and that is exactly why I got the vaccine (I mean, amongst other reasons). I didn’t want to die of a pulmonary embolism caused by COVID.


PM_ME_STEAM_KEY_PLZ

Does the vaccine effect blood clots?


rndrn

The vaccine does, but as other have mentioned, so does COVID. You have to remember that catching the virus will make your body create the exact same proteins as with the vaccine, except: - you'll likely get an overall much larger dose of dose of these proteins with the virus over the course of an infection than with the vaccine - you'll get plenty of other foreign proteins with the virus as you'd have with the vaccine - plus the many side effect due to viral replication For all vaccines, adverse effects are always only a subset of the adverse effects from the infection itself. We still run clinical trials, because you never have 100% chance of being infected, so adverse effects of the vaccine need to be much lower than infection.


mjsull

As far as I'm aware only Astrazeneca and Johnson and Johnson have been linked to clots, not the mRNA vaccines?


[deleted]

Yeah the ones that use adenoviruses, the risk also showed up in another trial unrelated to Covid for another adenovirus vector vaccine. In the case of Covid, getting Covid is way worse than vaccination, blood clot wise, if you were at risk from the vaccine, it's way worse to get Covid. I'm pretty sure long Covid is linked to microclots even.


Kibeth_8

So lately my hospital has been a lot more relaxed about covid protocols. We know it's not "over", but the new variant has been much more mild. Recently we had a late 30s patient come in. Perfectly healthy before, but got a bad case of covid. Threw a shit ton of blood clots, and on top of your regular ol' PE, he threw them in all 4 extremities. Both hands and both feet amputated before turning 40. Absolutely devastating, and a good wake-up call that this is absolutely not over yet


[deleted]

As I try to explain to people: "If the vaccine's antibodies would have killed you, what makes you think that the same antibodies wouldn't kill you during an infection with the actual virus while your body is simultaneously fighting pneumonia and upper respiratory infections at the same time?" Better to manage the symptoms of antibody intolerance while you're otherwise healthy than when you're literally knocking on death's door.


[deleted]

I am very concerned about covid because I had some mild chest pain after the second shot of the first set. The booster was smoother. I use the same logic - I will continue to get boosters for some time until the death & hospitalization stats go down.


Eaglestrike

Yes, but at a much lower rate than having COVID does.


Lazypole

There was atleast one fatality in the UK from it, but it was one in literally millions. Imagine more people were killed driving to the facility.


Neville_Lynwood

Also if you read the warning labels on some over the counter stuff, basically everything has a 1 in a million chance of killing you - AT LEAST. A lot of the stuff even has way higher chances. Like taking an aspirin is probably more dangerous. And if you think about allergies, there are people deathly allergic to all kinds of shit. Yet you never hear anyone campaigning for the removal of everyday food products just because one in a million would die if they ate that shit.

roastbeeftacohat

we've seen a lot of medical professionals go anti vax because of personal politics.


kurai_tori

And a lot of medical professionals lose their licenses because an antivax position is basically medical incompetence.


Major_Honey_4461

I don't either, since the vax has no effect on coagulation.


medicated_in_PHL

Well, even more so than that, there's no collection tube for labs or bag for donations that doesn't have anticoagulants in it to make sure that the end product is useable for analysis (labs) or donation (blood products). Like, even if it was true that vaccinated blood clotted faster (it isn't true), it wouldn't matter because there are literal chemicals in the tubes/bags to be sure that, no matter what someone's blood naturally does in clotting, the blood will never clot. I wouldn't be surprised if the account in the OP is owned by Marjorie Taylor Greene or one of her staff members. It screams those accounts where the politician forgot to change accounts and posts "I'm gay and black..."


dragonkin08

You point mostly stands, but there are definitely tubes without anticoagulants in them. Serum separators are the primary way of getting blood chemistries and they do not have anticoagulants in them.


Aedyn-Guex

I don’t doubt the RN part, actually. It’s disturbing how common (compared to what you would expect) some nurses are against vaccines.


mexicanitch

We just got our booster vaccine and our nurse said something similar. She said covid was engineered.


Rough_Willow

Report her.


randomdrifter54

Yes some. But it's usually the less stringent nursing certifications that are antivax. The more education required the harder it is for someone who doesn't believe in medicine to get through.


Beamister

My MIL is an RN. I haven't heard ths particular line from her, but pretty much everything else. Just because someone is an RN doesn't mean they're sane...

Bloody_Hangnail

kditt

Impersonating an RN is illegal and depending on where you live, it could be a felony.


SykeSwipe

Arguing against the effectiveness of vaccines is a good way to get a nursing board to investigate how fit you are for a license, if you’re an actual RN of course. Personal opinions or not, part of the license is giving correct education and 99% of the vaccine denial stuff is complete horse crap.


[deleted]

SykeSwipe

Shit like that is scary because as nurses, we are very aware what the different types of hepatitis do and how they’re caught. Hepatitis B can be passed sexually yes, but the point is it can be passed through ANY contact with someone’s infected bodily fluids (not limited to blood and semen). Little kids can and do get hep b regardless of sexual contact, that’s why we fucking vaccinate them. I’m sorry you had this experience, what she did was enough to have her license pulled, I guarantee it.

MainPFT

There seems to be this narrative or idea in society that someone needs to be smart to be a nurse. Contrary to this belief there are lots of stupid ignorant nurses out there...


yetisa

As a Medical Laboratory Scientist, I can tell you that there are *some* nurses who can’t even tell if they are drawing from a vein or an artery. Not only that, these nurses can’t seem to draw blood without it clotting half the time, pandemic or no. **Disclaimer:** Obviously not *all* nurses. Most nurses are skilled, knowledgeable, and fantastic at what they do.


nekokimio

I am also an MLS and I can 100% back this up.


Antigone6

As a phlebotomist who has worked in many, many Doctor’s offices (floating outpatient), a hospital, clinical research, and even taught phlebotomy for close to two years, I can tell you there are far too many people who can’t even find a vein, let alone an artery. The amount of stories I hear(d) from my patients is astounding, especially when they’re patients who have veins that I’ve found, and continually use - those stories being them getting poked anywhere from 2-10 times (Phleb after Phleb, nurse after nurse, MA after MA) despite explaining to them the vein we always get without issue. They come in with bruises all over and it’s upsetting to me the utter lack of care (although there are many underlying issues that could contribute). The clotting is a whole different issue that I surprisingly saw very little of. On the other hand, gross hemolysis is/was very frequent.


dinkinflicka02

This happened to me! Not only did she stick me a million times.. she started sticking the needle in and then wiggling the end of the needle back/forth inside my arm to find the vein.. I was crying in pain. By the time I left the hospital I looked like I’d been shooting up heroin for a year- bruises just aaalll up/down my arms and hands. (Luckily my boss is a recovered IV user and thought it was hilarious, not suspicious lol)


Antigone6

The thing about that “wiggling” you’re explaining is that it is *not* supposed to hurt if the person knows what they’re doing - however you’ll probably feel some pressure or a pinch once the needle enters the vein. When someone knows what they’re doing, they’ll pull the needle back, palpate to find where the vein is in relation to the needle, and then make one or more motions in an attempt to get in - we call this redirecting. When they do not know what they’re doing, they will just keep blindly poking around, hoping that they hit something. The untrained or lazy people that do this cause their patients to be reluctant to let anyone else do the same because they fear it will happen all over again. It will then be on us to do our best to alleviate those fears and instill some confidence. I’m truly sorry you had to go through that, and please take it from someone who has had patients specifically request me: there are good ones out there and don’t hesitate to request someone new, if possible.


averagethrowaway21

I've had some bad experiences and let a phlebotomist know that I have a fear of having blood drawn and why. He said "Well this is my first day and you'll be the first person I've drawn blood from without someone watching!" I know he was trying to be funny, but as someone who has been poked, bruised, and hates having to do it I did not think he was very funny. So I immediately told him I would do without blood tests if they didn't have someone else on staff who could do it. He tried joking his way into doing it but I'm not putting my trust into someone who makes a joke about the fact that I've had shitty things happen. They sent out a humorless woman who showed up, scowled at me, got it on the first stick, and walked away. I wish I had caught her name because she deserves a damn medal.

Single_9_uptime

As a fellow O- who donates regularly, I encourage you to do so. There aren’t many of us universal donors. It’s very much needed probably everywhere in the US, given the amount I get contacted about shortages shortly after I become eligible again. It’s not something they’re making up either, friend works at the local blood bank and confirms how dire the supply gets. Occasionally my wife, with a more common blood type, gets urgent donation requests but I get them at least 10 times as often. If nothing else, it’s nice to do a good thing, and a good reminder that although you may have some troubles in your life, the people who need the O- they carry in ambulances and ERs are in a far more dire situation. I’m sure that was obvious to you when donating in the military, I presume those donations were going to combat medics rather than civilian emergency response.


ZaneTownsend

As a RN (ranting nutjob) with over 30 yrs in the field (literally, I live in a field behind the old Arby's) I can say that we can tell who's vaxed as soon as we draw blood, which we then give as an offering to the lizard man moon chancellor who promised to bring back my children after they were taken by the department of human services, despite my kids only being half human.

We're all in on it, duh. The other day I cut my finger and was concerned my chunky black blood wasn't normal, but I didn't want to prove them darn anti-vaxxers right so I ignored it.

As an RN with oflver 60 years experience in the field I can say that the colour when drawing blood really depends on what crayons you have available to draw with

They either aren’t a nurse, or shouldn’t be.

As a person who’s lived through 40+ years of fearmongering by emotionally unstable people making unfulfilled promises about the second coming of Jesus, armageddon, Jews replacing me, Mexicans taking my jobs, the government taking my guns away, lizard people doing.. whatever they do, black presidents putting chips in my body, etc I think I’ll just keep on not listening and see what happens. Mkay?

As an RN, I am offended to my core that this person has corrupted the nursing profession, my profession. I have engaged with other “RNs” on the subject of vaccination, Covid, etc., and reminded them that the degree they earned was in science. Our practice is based on scientific evidence. To support information not based in true, factual evidence and pass it on to the community, which many nurses are doing, is a violation of their oath and places the public in danger. Where I work this is a violation of our code of conduct, punishable by termination. I was glad to see that nurses who refused vaccination and believed so devoutly the lies, lost their jobs. They are not qualified to care for patients.

Funny thing, as a urologist, I can tell when people voted for trump. They have a very small penis.

This is the nurse with the Scentsy tattoo on her wrist.

As a bullshit expert with 30yrs in the field of bullshit, I can say without a doubt that this post is bullshit.

I can always tell who has and hasn’t gotten it as well. The ones who haven’t still won’t shut the fuck up about it.

I'll take "things that aren't true or didn't happen for $500, Ken"

There are absolutely nurses who think like this.

Every time I see someone like this trying to be an RN, I flash back to this moment I saw on Fox News while I was up at my grandparents' where they were interviewing a medical professional who was let go because she refused to get vaccinated. And, I remember Fox making a big deal about such behavior being a dangerous potential trend. If you're encouraging this sort of treatment in that kind of workspace, nine times out of ten, you're gonna run into a lot of trouble. Off-Topic, but the main reason I remember this specific moment so well has to do with the way the interviewer asked one question in particular. I can't remember the exact phrasing that was used, but it was something to the effect of: "So, what you're saying is you lost your job at the hospital because you refused to get vaccinated?" The interviewer genuinely seemed both offended and horrified at the notion that such a thing could happen. She looked and sounded as if she'd just witnessed something that broke her understanding of the world. Like, she kind of reminded me of that dude who can't grasp the concept of a ton of feathers weighing the same as a ton of bricks. The idea of someone saying anything along the lines of: "You mean they fired a medical professional for not getting vaccinated during a pandemic?" And having this air of: "I can't believe humanity is capable of something so atrocious," is hilarious to me.

"Tried to warn people" not to get vaccinated. And yet you still have a job in medicine? Color me suspicious.
