I just received news that longtime WoV and VCT member, Puckerbutt, contracted long-haul covid about 5 1/2 months ago. I was told he was in the hospital for 3 1/2 months and is still pretty weak.
I met him a few years ago. He's a good guy and a damn good slot AP. Here's hoping he fully recuperates.
Do you know any statistics on him?Quote:

Most Gamblers aren't in the greatest shape and have dealt with second hand smoke their whole lives.
Not to mention bad eating habits like burgers and buffets.
Makes me think of that guy they found dead in his apartment... Tuna... not in the greatest shape.
And BBB... Overweight and Smoker.
Indeed all those factors conglomerately factor into the severity of battling the Vid. Contrary to most people's beliefs, with some self control and preferably OMAD( for obvious reasons in this instance) eating at casino buffets can be extremely healthy while receiving all necessary nutrients. I lived on casino buffets for many years, with overall excellent health for my age. Choices are king ( not Zen).Quote:

Some people may disagree with this but Mental Strength or Mental Health plays a large factor in recovery as well.Quote:

Yes, because you're obese and haven't been vacinated of course you'll tell yourself your inner mental strength will prevail.Quote:

Ironically, thinking in this way is the exact opposite of mental strength and mental health. You're just telling yourself what is convienent to your world view. I call it thinking like a woman, but men seem to do it about as much.
Technically Obese if you go by BMI, which is incorrect.Quote:

I was born 2 months premature which is probably why my bronchial tubes had issues.
And my father was a heavy smoker who smoked in the house which I'm sure didn't help matters.
Mental Fortitude does matter.
Are you the resident antagonist?
Keep up the good work!
Your 4th Booster Shot should be ready soon and I'm sure you'll get a 5th before April 2022.
Of course that isn't the real issue.
Get as many medical procedures as you like.
The issue is that you want more government control over our lives and bodies which is a serious problem.
And you want the Government to tell your neighbors what they have to do to be a part of society.
Mental fortitude might matter when you're so sick you're near death but to keep you healthy? Nope.Quote:

I'll consider 4th shot when time comes.
There no real government control but there is that big business vax mandate, so not really wrong. Just none of these mandates impact us.
The mask mandates are just LOL. I agree about being against government mandates but I also don't think the masking is such a huge deal that it bothers me. So so many other real problems, I'd have to be a pussy to get wound up over that shit.
I've heard big people have a real problem with the masks. I find them a nuisance and surely get very tired of them but I can deal with it. I also don't think kids are being terrorized or whatever by wearing masks. Life was far far far more harsh 100 years ago. People really are just too soft. I can't get wound up over masks mandates.
He didn't smoke. I've never seen him drinking. Never asked him his age but my guess is he is around 50. He's stocky but not obese. I have no clue about drugs, underlying disease, or whether he got the jab. But my guess on the jab, since he got severely sick he probably didn't get it.Quote:

The only difference between the vaxxed and non-vaxxed is the non-vaxxed can't suffer from an adverse vax reaction.
I agree with you.Quote:

My problem is with our Governments using our tax dollars to make drugs and sell them back to us at a 100x profit or more.
Especially a drug that only works 30% of the time
I also have a major issue with Governments forcing individuals to take the jab or else.
Mental fortitude definitely is a factor overall, that will help you overcome many physical obstacles, including the Wuflu. BMI is also extremely outdated and doesn't apply to many well built individuals. Waist size, body fat % trumps asinine BMI !Quote:
