Some Doctors Will Fight … for Me, Anyway

 

In a dramatic five-minute phone call, the game of telephone with office staff has been ended.

My hematologist said that of course, he would have no problem writing my exemption letter.  While vaccines are great and all, not everyone can have them and he agrees that it would be a bad idea for me.  Of course, he could never prove exact causality, etc, etc.  He recalled investigating hypercoagulability, the various tests, all of them being negative for any other reason.  All of that being true, he agreed to write the letter.

I cannot describe the relief that I feel right now.

While the fight is over for me, personally, I know it is not over for every single healthcare provider in California who has had a reaction to the vaccines.

Anyone who had a reaction short of anaphylaxis that caused throat swelling (and only that), is guided by the CDC to receive the vaccine.

Cardiomyopathy?  Get the booster.

Venous Sinus Thrombus?  Get the booster.

Deep vein thrombosis?  Get the booster.

Total body rash?  Get the booster.

The CDC’s guidelines do not take into account the unique nature of people and their strange immune systems.  The State of California’s Department of Public Health also does not take into account people’s conditions and previous reactions.  California’s Board of Medicine is still creating an environment of fear for doctors who are willing to treat their patients as individuals.  BoM is still coercing doctors to deny appropriate care and guidance to their patients for fear of losing their own careers.

The fight is not over.

But now I will still have an income to contribute to it.

    I’ve had my wife in emergency twice for this so that in addition to my overall objection to the skipping of testing of the vaccines has led me to refusing. We are retired so in the vulnerable category by age but there are such things as other considerations.

    Good news, but can’t they still decide not to accept the exemption?

    Technically, yes.

    But they also cannot ask about one’s disability or reason for the exemption.

    Maybe they understand mandates better than immunity. On the other hand, maybe they don’t know much about mandates, either. 

    In any case, I’m glad you got the immediate problem taken care of.

    It is sad for me, a patriot, to recognize and admit any government is bloated (ok, not sad to admit that), authoritarian, and even evil. It will remain so until trimmed of its fat but will destroy any man attempts to do so. How? It has the blessings and assistance of the Democrat Party. I don’t know how it ends…. And I we hove enough truckers to do it.

    I have noticed the Canadian trucker’s demonstration has been infiltrated by those bent on destroying its image. I smell lefties..
