@TexasLisa I tried to go on the link and it said video removed by producer. Anywhere else to get a chance to see it?

FJ, this site is not allowing me to quote right now. I want to ask your forgiveness (instead of permission) I copied your post about CV in cattle, and the theory about passive immunity in farmers on my FB page.

There is talk in the medical community (not the PC crowd) that Ivermectin is useful in treatment of covid. I'm not endorsing it, just telling you what I've heard.

it is something they just don't know yet, much like my husbands lungs. it is so new they don't know what lifelong issues it may bring. we both are just now getting to where we can walk around Walmart without having to give up and leave or stop to rest. I am just getting to where I can feed and water animals without sitting for a break. but the dr said the # of people who are having strange heart and lung issues is very high. it is unfortunately a waiting game to see if it is permanent. and yes the fatigue was horrible!

This article states that 45% of covid-19 deaths in the U.S. are residents in nursing homes and other assisted living facilities:

38% of COVID-19 Deaths in Nursing Homes & Assisted Living Facilities
A startling statistic has profound implications for the way we’ve managed the coronavirus pandemic.

I posted this on FB a couple of days ago. I'd like you all to read, then take a moment to respond. Time to play Doctor, folks. As a physician, how would you respond????
When is it ok for a physician or care giver to cause harm to a patient? Is it acceptable when someone outside the medical profession insists that the caregiver perform an action which causes harm to the patient? Let's pretend for a moment that you are a doctor. Read the following TRUE case study, and please respond.
Patient A comes to your clinic for routine bloodwork. He is 95 years old. He has multiple diagnoses. Including type 2 Diabetes, and cardiac issues leading to pacemaker placement. He has frequent episodes of low blood pressure, and fainting. He was recently discharged from hospital and rehab, during which time, he had MULTIPLE negative covid tests. Per Janet Mill's protocol, Patient A is required to wear a face mask. While waiting for his blood work, he reports feeling dizzy. He has not had anything to eat, since he needed to be fasting for some of his bloodwork. His family attendant reports the dizziness, his blood sugar was tested, and found to be on the high side, but he was given a snack anyways. He was moved to a treatment room for further assessment. Oxygen Saturation rate was 88%. Standard treatment would involve placing patient on oxygen if he is not able to maintain O2 sats above 90% on room air. Family member asks if mask can be removed. Remember. This is a patient who is now demonstrating lack of oxygen. He is Covid negative, and he is in a private treatment room, where all other attendants are masked. Entire wait time, blood draw, and medical assessment ended up being 3 hours. Patient and family member asked if he could remove his mask. As his physician, what would you do?
