Pfizer for teens?

Well regardless of where you stand on this issue, I think we'd all probably agree that greed and commercialism in the medical field and pharmaceutical industries hurt everyone. I don't just automatically trust peer reviewed research without looking up the researchers and funding, etc. & it's sad.. isn't there such important research that scientists need to do, but can't simply because it's not profitable enough to be funded?
No I do not agree.4 -
*the actual rate is more like 1.8%
Sure, if you count all of the people killed in car wrecks, construction accidents, or died of other legitimate causes that were labeled as "Covid" deaths because they may have tested positive after death. Hospitals everywhere are using the "Covid" cause of death for everything they can because covid insurance claims are paying at a higher rate and are not being scrutinized as closely for fraud.
Actual deaths caused by Covid alone are probably much lower than what @ElliesDad422 noted.
Hospitals everywhere? Our hospitals are publicly funded and non-profit so I can't imagine a scenario where a Covid death would be more beneficial to them than a death by any other cause.
Or do you mean life insurance claims? Maybe I'm not following exactly what "covid insurance claims" you are referring to.
I do not know where you are, but I do know that hospitals in the United States get a much higher reimbursement rate from health insurance on claims with a covid diagnosis, and that those claims are not being scrutinized for fraud the way other claims are. This is simple fact. There are people going in for broken legs, testing positive for Covid with no symptoms, and the hospitals are filing claims with primary diagnosis of Covid and secondary diagnosis of bone fracture, and getting paid more with less scrutiny.
Same with deaths. Say someone who is a lifelong sufferer of emphysema is on death's doorstep. They go to the hospital, are admitted, test positive for covid with no symptoms of the disease, and die a week later. The hospital codes it as a covid death in order to get higher Medicare reimbursement and less scrutiny from private insurance. It has been happening every day since this started, and this has driven up the death count tremendously.3 -
It always make me laugh when people assume they won't be one of the (*supposed) .4% of those who die from Covid, but they won't get the vaccine because they fear being the one in a million person who reacts to it.
*the actual rate is more like 1.8%
Reminds me of a patient at our clinic who was adamant he was not having covid vaccine because of risk of bloodclots.
I noticed a packet of cigarettes in his pocket.

But the deaths are being reported world wide. So what would be the reason for other countries to inflate their numbers?5 -

What fraud??
Not following what you are claiming is happening??
And does it apply to all countries?? Are you claiming covid deaths are being misdiagnosed in all countries - if not, how do you a count for the death rate world wide ??
When claims are submitted to insurance companies for adjudication and payment, they are run through extensive data analysis for possible insurance fraud. Both by private insurance companies and by Medicare. Claims with Covid diagnosis on them are not being scrutinized as closely, and are being paid regardless of any issues that may arise in the claims by government mandate.
I cannot speak intelligently about what may be going on in other parts of the world, I only know what I know about what is happening in my country. All I will say, in closing, is if you blindly believe what the talking heads in the government and the media are spoon feeding you, you are going to end up getting what you deserve, whatever that might be.
And as Forrest Gump said....."That's all I have to say about that."

Could you provide a source for these 'facts'?
And also explain why deaths are reported in other countries around the world where such reimbursement system does not apply?

I am honestly trying to respectfully engage with you to understand the theory you are presenting.
You are providing "proof" that numbers are inflated for Covid deaths, that is only applicable to the US. But the same Covid deaths are occurring world wide and that proof doesn't apply there.
So I should question what the "talking heads in the government" are saying - OK I am questioning it. I am trying to imagine a reason that my country (and others besides the US) are inflating Covid deaths. Anyone who would like to help with that I am all ears.6 -

So, no source provided to verify these claims ?
And no explanation of covid death rates in the world outside US where such funding system does not apply?
You think we shouldn't accept what governments, the CDC, other countries equivalent bodies, WHO etc spoon feed us - but we should accept your claims with no verifying source??
I don't think so.

People here are making some good comments, but I think it's impossible to shift people out of conspiratorial mindsets with facts or logic. These opinions weren't formed using facts and logic and they're incredibly resilient to them.
Once you're in the position of arguing that all facts contrary to your worldview are lies, you've created a perfect bubble that nothing can penetrate.17 -

This is not true. The reason people are tested before admission is to separate Covid infected patients from those not infected. A person with a hip fracture does not get a “primary diagnosis” of Covid infection. That’s laughable. It has nothing to do with billing for the most part.
Now if someone dies of pneumonia and also has Covid, you can bet a Covid diagnosis will be billed for because Covid likely killed the patient! I say this as a medical provider. But, I see you are one of those conspiracy theorists who has no grip on what the facts actually are.16 -
For the benefit of readers in other countries who may be curious, this is what a couple of mainstream, reputable (IMO) sources are saying about the idea that Covid cases are over-diagnosed for the financial benefit of medical providers:
https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/factcheck/2020/04/24/fact-check-medicare-hospitals-paid-more-covid-19-patients-coronavirus/3000638001/
https://www.factcheck.org/2020/04/hospital-payments-and-the-covid-19-death-count/
The *oversimplified* TL;DR is that average per-patient hospital bills can be higher for Covid patients than for other serious respiratory ailments, but that there's no evidence of systematic fraudulent manipulation of diagnoses or medical billing codes to exploit that difference. Among other things, the financial compensation differences are not structured in a way that they would generally give incentive for fraud to the people who actual determine the diagnoses and codes.

Yes this is not a simple moral dilemma. There are 25000 ppl in the world dying daily from hunger (10000 children). There are also simply treatable diseases many ppl in third world unnecessarily are dying from. In this context it doesn't sounds as dilemma but cynicism.
Have to call BS on these sensational numbers. Below article gives a fair description of what's really going on
https://www.bbc.com/news/magazine-22935692

If anything, hospitals gave a lot of free care to patients because they were not allowed to bill for Covid testing. Back in November, December, and January when Southern California had our surge, we saw thousands of patients who did not pay a dime for their Covid tests.
Covid caused many problems which allowed it to be a billable diagnosis. The problems were not just respiratory in nature. A lot of elderly people ended up dehydrated with electrolyte abnormalities due to gastrointestinal symptoms from Covid, for example. Providers were not just tacking on a meaningless Covid diagnosis to bill extra. Chances are if the patient had Covid, it was why they were in the hospital to begin with.
Instead of accusing medical providers of fraud, how about appreciating that we were on the front lines saving lives? Conspiracy theorists are so ignorant.14 -
It would seem reasonable to me to be reimbursed extra for a patient with a covid diagnosis, even if it is so mild that it does not affect their treatment for their fractured hip or whatever.
Because that patient would need to be nursed in isolation to prevent spread - extra staff hours, provision of separate facilities, additional precautionary measures, which all have a financial cost.
But that isnt fraud or expoiting numbers, of course.8 -

Yes exactly. Also, chances are the Covid infection made them weak which contributed to their fall, for example. It amazes me how many people show such contempt for medical providers but those same people wouldn’t hesitate to seek care if they were sick or injured.6 -

This was a conspiracy theory I heard early on, based on a video of some official (Chicago?) acknowledging that hospice patients who tested positive for Covid were being counted as a Covid death. In other words, people who were already dying of something else were inflating the death count.
By this reasoning, if a crazed shooter goes into a hospice facility and opens fire on the patients, they will not be charged with homicide because the victims were already dying of something else anyway. Logic, see?

All that for a now easily prevented result.don’t need a vaccination for a 99.6% survival virus. Everyone is quick to trust and do what they are told.
The mRNA vaccine technology has been under development for over 10 years now. Food for thought.An MRNA is not actually a “vaccine.” It does not fit FDA guidelines to be labeled as such. Real vaccinations take 10+years to develop.
OK, wait a sec, you're telling us to not trust the Government, not trust the FDA, not trust MSM, not trust big pharma, not trust all the data freely available to any thinking person, to do (or is it not to do?) our own research, but to trust Rumble.com to tell us how things are? LOL indeed! BTW, the other complaint about the MSM is their fixation on only the adverse reactions, not the 99.99+% success rate. Which is it?Additionally, you won’t see the larger amount of adverse reactions on mainstream news. Check rumble.com.
Already did. Signed him up the first day it was available. He had a sore arm for a night, and now gets to enjoy life again.Also, teens are passing away from the vaccinations. Would you be willing to take that chance with your child?
What about them? No one has a natural immunity to Covid, as it's a new virus.How about natural supplements and building the immune system.
No, influenza still exists. The basic protective measures, such as wearing a mask, washing your hands, not picking your nose, and staying home when sick work for all sorts of communicable diseases. Amazing, I know, but you should give it a try.If you notice, the flue is now non-existent from 2020-2021. Apparently the flu was cured? Lol. No, just everything is being labeled as Covid.
I'm sorry for your in-law's loss.My in-laws has two good friends pass away from the Johnson-Johnson and one Pfizer vaccine. One of them I believe had diabetes and was in their 50’s. The other, in their 40’s and no pre-existing conditions. They labeled cod as Covid.
Wait! You told us to go to Rumble.com instead of doing our own research from credible sources! Which is it? But, typical; fling out a bunch of misinformation, declare yourself the only "knowing" person that should be trusted...then leave.This is not to banter, but to throw info out their and warn others to do your research from credible sources.

You will get more side effects from Covid (intubation, long hauling side effects, and possible death). But it is your life and if you want to throw away or spend weeks or months in the ICU your choice as well. But please, wear a mask and keep distance because there are other people that cannot be vaccinated due to health reasons, but would like to keep on living and be free of Covid.14 -

I see in the UK hospitalizations and death is very low with about 50 % of cases, now, being young and unvaccinated. Does anyone know if these kids are getting over it quickly or having chronic issues afterward? I can't find much data on that. I assume if hospitalization is low, then probably not having issues, right? The under 15 crowd are still looking like they're least likely to have any problems other than a cold.0

Chronic issues are definitely possible even without hospitalisation. You might find this interesting:
