THE WALLOP

A few years ago my doctor recommended another vaccine. Which, being generally speaking, quite trusting of my medical professionals, I readily agreed to. One must be selective of the advice one takes, especially regarding health. The people who were telling me to dose with manuka honey, apple cider vinegar, and extra ginger and turmeric, and to also avoid gluten, were too dingbattish to take seriously. The person who told me to speak firmely to my doctor and get off the trailer park medicine, as well as do chair yoga, ditto. And the fellows who were convinced that the Covid jab was poisonous AND had nano-chips that were spying on me for the government were of course entirely off their rocker, and I'm extremely surprised that two of them are still alive.

[Manuka honey etc.: turns out it was circulatory issues and ischemia, necessitating a coronary stent. For which honey and cider won't do diddly. Avoiding gluten does squat. Trailer park medicine: That's clopidogrel (plavix) apparently. Which had been prescribed to keep the stent from clogging up. Quitting it would have killed me. Quite irrespective of the benefits to my imaginary chakras and aura from doing chair yoga. Covid jab nano-chips: Do NOT take any advice from adherents of Republican conspiracy medical theories. And wear your damned mask.]

So anyhow, that recommended extra vaccine was the RSV jab. Per Wikipedia: "having chronic heart or lung disease is also a risk factor". Additionally, weakened immune systems, doddering old age, and being around infectious hippie-dippies who self-medicate with crap like honey and vinegar, with or without ginger and turmeric, also come into play.

And I'm glad I got it.

Those people who advocate magic vinegar and honey, gluten avoidance, chair yoga, and similar feel-good nostrums should kindly shut up. And please swallow bucket loads of panchagavya, because it's potent juju and mighty spiritual. Thank you.


By the way: chiropractic and naturopathy are codswallop.
I'm priggishly pleased that I ignore all of that.
And I'm still alive, too.
