@jma22576 @NoahsArk1112019 @Cernovich Correct. Clearly Cern's understanding is limited.

It's fun to say you know more or could do more than you actually can. Sometimes I think I could have run for a touchdown while watching an NFL game.

@PaulREhrlich Science is the humble process of trying to discover truth.

Your opinion was wrong & disregards truth.

Please, stop equating the two.

[CraigMD @CraigMD84]

@ZubyMusic Another "doctor" who's thinking is corrupted by politics.

How can he keep ignoring the data?

-You have to boost 40,000 non-elderly people to prevent 1 hospitalization.

-Vaccine doesn't prevent spread.

-C19 mortality (ages 19-59) is ~5 in 100,000, the same as scuba diving.

It’s time we drop the stigma associated with returning to normalcy, opening schools, & yes, celebrating New Years.

Enough with the anti-science COVID authoritarianism.

#C19
#NewYears

[CraigMD @CraigMD84]

Is it also wild to see people driving, taking down Christmas lights, or sledding since all of these have a similarly minuscule but real risk of hospitalization?

[CraigMD @CraigMD84]

C19 death rate among 18-59 year old’s = 6 per 100,000.

This is similar to your risk of dying from scuba diving (4 deaths per 100,000).

@Cernovich Egor has a rigid idea of work as a 9-5 job.

Reading is a huge part of Lex's success. He runs one of the most popular podcasts with millions of subscribers talking to experts from various fields. If that's not work, then I'm not sure what is.

[CraigMD @CraigMD84]

@Cernovich Modern-day "journalists" cannot wait for evidence, & even worse, once they commit themselves to a narrative they will disregard actual evidence.

[CraigMD @CraigMD84]

@TheDemocrats Legislation to lower costs??!

Think about that one again for a second...

[CraigMD @CraigMD84]

@youngdudeman I actually see a more promising job market for PAs than MDs.

Many hospitals & practices are scaling with more PAs who are overseen by fewer & fewer MDs.

Pediatric dentists should ALWAYS be using digital x-ray technology (not older machines) to limit radiation exposure in children.

Children are much more sensitive to radiation than adults (up to 10x more sensitive).

[CraigMD @CraigMD84]

Medical misconception:
• Dental x-rays are a dangerous source of radiation.

Fact:
• A digital dental x-ray has minuscule radiation exposure -- the same amount of radiation you get from eating 10 bananas.

[CraigMD @CraigMD84]

Keep in mind, dentists will usually take 4 bitewings (so 4 different x-rays = 4x the radiation).

Old x-ray machines that use film (instead of digital) can have over 5x the radiation exposure of newer machines.

Merry Xmas to everyone except people that give self-help books as gifts.

@EdLatimore That's exactly what the elites want.

The more we bicker amongst each other, the more they can get away with behind our backs.

[CraigMD @CraigMD84]

@Rothmus Even Holiday Eve can be offensive because we all know what day is coming next then, right?

There is no end to this madness.

[CraigMD @CraigMD84]

@kellerbrian1 @EdLatimore & then you realize all your effort to keep them from hitting rock bottom may be preventing their only path to recovery.

[CraigMD @CraigMD84]

@TheDemocrats @JoeBiden Except much of this was people getting their old job back after the COVID shutdowns... Pretty important disclaimer.
