That's pretty much exactly what I was talking about yesterday. Wearing a mask is a sign of weakness? Seriously?
Being a fucking imbecile is no excuse for this kind of thing."The Science" tells us that wearing a mask doesn't prevent you from getting infected. It tells us that wearing a mask prevent you from infecting others.
So, which "fucking imbecile" gave it to Trump?

To clarify, the fucking imbecile I was referring to was the writer of the article in the Federalist who implied that to wear a mask was a sign of weakness.

I think he was being snarky more than anything.

While the media all day pumps out information on how bad Trump’s case is and how disconcerting all the confusing and nefarious information is Trump comes out with another video, this time standing and more vigorous. I guess we should know soon which is the correct reality.

Meanwhile, see all the news about Biden?
Me, neither...

Yeah, but we've all heard the stories where a person is doing well with Covid, everything seems to be going great, and then all of a sudden. . .

Is this true? Over here, osteopathy doctors are seen as similar to witch doctors, homeopathy etc. - that is, full of shit.
No, it isn't. At all.
In America, there are no "osteopaths." We have osteopathic physicians, and that distinction is vast. It's not like other countries. Here, osteopathic doctors go through the exact same schooling as MDs. Exact. Except they also have additional hours learning OMT, on top of what MDs have to do. And whatever people think about OMT is immaterial to a DO's credentials. DOs can and do choose any specialty they want, prescribe drugs, perform surgeries, and practice anywhere in the country.
For licensure, DOs have the option to take the USMLE just like MDs, and many do.
Sure, there are differences, but those differences are also blurring with each passing year.

But osteopathy isn't based on scientific evidence.
Even if somebody has all the knowledge that a normal medical doctor has, the fact that (s)he's willing to put up with witchcraft in one domain would make me question the overall trustworthiness. Either you believe in evidence-based medicine or not. Ex falso quodlibet. There's no in-between.
