There are people in hospital, on the cusp of death, who will refuse to receive blood because it’s unknown whether it’s “vaccinated” mRNA blood or not.
I’m curious to see how this goes.
That's their decision to make. I don't see the relevance to this discovery though. If those people don't want it, then that's their choice. Give it to people who do.
There’s no differentiation in blood donations. Surgery consent is wrapped around blood consent so it may mean surgery is off the table as well, depending.
Ofc it’s a choice, refusal of medical care is almost always on the table, unless you’re chaptered or deemed nondecisional or some such. As this tech becomes more mainstream, I’m curious to see how many bow out of medical cares going forward. Or, if this we be re-written as somehow different than the vaccine tech and therefore deemed ok because everyone wants a cure for cancer.
It's very different than a traditional vaccine.
I feel like most people will have a change of heart when they are actively dying in the hospital. Same as how many anti-abortion folks end up getting abortions when it’s their body on the line.
Exactly. That’s my thought.
Cure for cancer: yes. Support of this thing that made my god emperor look bad: no, on pain of my own death. Alternatively, support of this thing that made me extremely uncomfortable and robbed me of some life choices: no, even if it kills me. I will twist it around so theyre somehow not the same tech.
Granted, there’s always the flat earther, dinosaurs bones are trolling fakes, chem trails, and the moon landing was another troll on all of humanity types. They’re probably all in on the Bill Gates cares enough about you to track you via nanites in the vaccine. I mean, why not? If you believe any of the other is the vaccine hype all that big of a stretch from there?
Actual risk? Someone lives on the tippy tails of the bell curve, or there wouldn’t be a bell curve. There’s no such thing as a 100% with people, or medical care outcomes. Except eventual death. (I’m subtracting taxes because sovereign citizens really do try their best on that one.)
All of that said, people are at deaths door a lot in hospital and will still refuse life saving care.
Amputating gangrene is one. Not taking lactulose. Not taking diuretics. Guzzling sugar with diabetes. Having a hemoglobin of 5 and continuing to refuse blood that might be from a COVID vaccinated person. So why not refuse this too?
Natural selection at its finest.
