Cure for omicron. I have posted this before
I have now tested positive for this crap as of today along with just about every other family member. For me, it is the glorified sniffles and a little more tired than normal. A few family members have the symptoms more like a 24 hour stomach virus. All in all, I am glad I got the latest version of this crap and not the former. No worries, I will be fine in time to pull Alabama through to another victory come next Friday. 
Gosh, not sure how to respond to the opinions here but I see this everyday and its real. People are still dying. I'm not for lockdowns, mandates or the complete politicalization of this virus but I know its real. I had 5 positive cases last night. I fight for my patients and community everyday against this virus, misinformation, politicians, celebrities, wannabe experts on social media and Dr. Google. Its a slap in the face to expect our medical community to keep fighting to save lives against this virus when people don't believe its real. I wish you guys to come and visit the ICU's, the packed ED's the waiting rooms and see my world. Maybe watch someone die in front of you because their lungs don't work because they have bilateral pneumonia or a 13 month old child that you have to intubate because mom and dad didn't get vaccinated and now their child is paying the price. I see this every time I go to work, I hear the wails of crying families as you tell them that their loved one has died. I'm of the mindset to say we all quit, let it all go to hell and then maybe people will begin to understand the sacrifice we make as a medical community as we try to help our fellow man. So no, its not "overblown or overhyped" but yes its has become so damn political that people can't out of the own beliefs to at least do their part in helping society get back to normal because I can tell you this, ignoring will not work. I worked in research prior to medical school and viruses adapt quickly. This is what we are seeing with SARS and yes Omicron is a milder variant than Delta, but understand we LUCKED out this time. The next variant may be more virulent and just as transmittable than Delta, then what? What happens when time from infection to severe disease and possible death is 5-7 days and the healthcare system is drowning in patients and there are no beds or staff to treat the sick? I pray to God this never happens, but what if it does? Then what? Will we continue down this road of denial, listening to everyone but the medical community?
And please understand, I want this sh!t to go away just as much as the next man. I want to go back to life before Covid. I hate wearing a mask. But I have a daughter. I have an elderly father. I have a job that I've dedicated myself to doing because that's what the good Lord but me here to do. So, I'll do my part to help all mankind regardless of the ignorance, hate, politicalization and bias surrounding this pandemic.

Why would you bring my psychiatrist into this conversation?
I don't think anyone here wants anyone dead. It's society in general today. I don't want to see two parents OD on drugs while a toddler sits locked in a car seat crying while sitting at a redlight. I don't want to see young kids dead after being hit by a DUI. I don't like seeing millions overprescribe medication that gets them addicted to opiods. I don't like seeing drug addicts trading their kids as sex slaves. No one wants to see that. Big Pharma holds a lot of the problems and the root of so many issues in this country. It's ok to have an opinion on the matter as this virus has caused so much misinformation that no one knows the truth. Even as a doctor you've got 10,000 differing opinions from your peers, so even the expert advice on the matter is inconsistent. I don't want to see or hear of anyone dying, but I hope this is a wakeup call to how dirty MOST people live their lives and how they treat their bodies. Underlying conditions seem to be a catalyst for this and it really brings into questions our diets, health, how we treat our bodies, and the everyday trust we put into a government and companies to create food for us that contain chemicals and unethical creation of our daily diet. Say what you want, but the vaccine was shoved down our throats, and now we're being threatened by governement over it. Not sure how you could fault anyone that takes a different path with the way this has been handled from the start.

I had a guy at work tell me that if the unvaccinated get the virus, they cannot get help in the hospital.
I just shook my head.
Fauci needs to be held accountable.
DARPA grant proposal from a few years ago, give that a look.

@BamaFan334 my read of @BamaMD's post was he was simply telling us what he is experiencing on the front line. Was not opinion or misinformation but his experiences which is the best information that we can get about what is really happening at least in his world.

How many patients have been treated with ivermectin, hcq? Is the protocol to pump them with remdesivir and put them on a ventilator? Variants of a virus result in the virus becoming more contagious but less deadly at least that’s my understanding. You’re a Dr but you are no less susceptible to manipulation of facts and out right lies than anyone else. Remdesivir is poison but it was the only authorized treatment. The clinicals for remdesivir should have kept it off of the market. The CDC, FDA, NIH simply can’t be trusted.

There is only one opinion allowed. Dr Mengele’s errr Fauci. I have read of Dr’s being persecuted and pharmacists losing licenses over prescribing ivermectin.
He's able to read reports with far more understanding than many, if not all, here due to the fact he is a physician.
Agree we absolutely need more info from people on the street than someone in Washington DC. I put waaaaay much more weight on information from a front line Doctor than a life long government employee and for sure from a politician or news agency. I assume we all understand how much weight we should put on FB info.
And @BamaMD is actually practicing medicine. It is a well know fact in the MD community that Fauci is a lab rat MD who is good at theory or ordinances but he has a very poor disconnect at actually administering medicine. This is one of the reason he contradicts himself all the time.

I never said anything to the contrary. My point is when rigid protocols are forced on Dr’s and hospitals and any dissenting or use of alternate treatments can and has resulted in loss of licensing and ability to make a living, then you are dealing with faulty data. There is no doubt in my mind that the good Dr can analyze medical data.
Definitely some truth there, but Fauci is a prime example of why it's difficult to trust anyone, even the guys that practice medicine. Definitely not saying BamaMD is to be questioned negatively at all, but just saying even the "nations leading epidemiologist" can't even shoot straight.
