Stupid shit in Medellin

Wtf is it with the right wingers and hydrocholoroquine? Here's my other theory: You don't know what hydroxychloroquine is.

"What we found is that of those patients treated with hydroxychloroquine there was a 13% overall mortality; in the patients that were not treated with hydroxychloroquine there was a 26% mortality," said Dr. Steven Kalkanis, CEO of Henry Ford Medical Group.

HCQ has not been shown to be an effective treatment for COVID-19. ONE study out of France suggested it has efficacy and it's more or less been debunked by a plethora of truly randomized placebo controlled trials. The French trial was observational and did not have appropriate controls. It's a risk benefit ratio where the risks are worth taking if the drug benefits the patient. Taking a drug with no proven efficacy one assumes all the risk with no potential benefit. I'm an infectious disease doc (25 years) and I can't even remember the last time I considered prescribing HCQ.

Wow, doc Stirling, with all you Dems on here, what is next? Dr. Fauci going to post here?

This is what was published in 2003. The article was entitled Effects of chloroquine on viral infections: an old drug against today's diseases: https://www.thelancet.com/journals/laninf/article/PIIS1473-3099(03)00806-5/fulltext

Chloroquine / hydroxychloroquie has a well-studied toxicity profile. The half-century-long use of this drug in the therapy of malaria demonstrates the safety of acute administration of chloroquine to human beings. The use of chloroquine / hydroxychloroquine in rheumatic diseases and for antimalarial prophylaxis showed a low incidence of adverse events during chronic administration of this drug for periods of up to a few years. In these cases, the most serious toxic effect is a macular retinopathy, which depends on the cumulative dose rather than on the daily dose, and permanent damage may be prevented with regular visual monitoring during treatment. 27,28, 29 A recent study30 provided encouraging results on the safety of a high dosage of the drug (up to 500 MG of chloroquine base per day) even during pregnancy.

We conclude that chloroquine / hydroxychloroquine administration presents limited and well-preventable toxicity and may thus result in a low risk / benefit balance at least when it is used in life-threatening conditions.

It is funny even though dexamethasone has a pretty bad side effect profile and a similar mechanism of action, no one mentions side effects but with HCQ, you are going to go blind and have a stroke, and it doesn't work. What is your theory on why the side effect profile of the drug changed?

Because here is my theory: a bunch of Democratic pseudointellectual hacks are afraid that it might work.

The shame of it all is the same political bullshit is happening in Colombia. The mayor of Bogota and Colombian president are competing to see who can be a bigger hard ass on Covid.

It's amazing how much a little makeup can do sometimes.

Very true! Check this:

One of the reasons nobody believed Covid was real was that it devolved into the typical partisan war. In fact, one writer called it the Trump virus. So this virus, which came from China and whom Biden thinks is not a threat BTW, was divided into people who care about it and people who do not.

Covid is VERY fucking real, and HCQ was studied for Corona Viruses treatment and found to be an effective treatment for said viruses way before Trump got into office. Now of course, HCQ, which is a cheap drug, is the most dangerous drug on the planet. In reality, it has been so safe that it has been around for 70 years and used for prophyaxis for Malaria and to prevent exacerbations of people having Lupus.

HCQ has not been shown to be an effective treatment for COVID-19. ONE study out of France suggested it has efficacy and it's more or less been debunked by a plethora of truly randomized placebo controlled trials. The French trial was observational and did not have appropriate controls. With respect to it's safety, it can be a damn dangerous drug. Just because an agent has been around for 70 years and has been shown to be effective at treating certain conditions does not equate to safety. It's a risk benefit ratio where the risks are worth taking if the drug benefits the patient. Taking a drug with no proven efficacy one assumes all the risk with no potential benefit. I'm an infectious disease doc (25 years) and I can't even remember the last time I considered prescribing HCQ.

I'm not looking to get into yet another pointless, vapid, silly, childish political discussion that serves no purpose.

I'm only wondering if Hydroxychloroquine is available over the counter in Medellin. Thanks.

Why? Do you have lupus? Are you trying to deny someone with lupus who actually needs the medicine the right to have their treatment by buying it up?

A chick I know usually doesn't wear makeup. Yesterday I saw her profile picture changed to one with light makeup. I went WOW. It's amazing how much a little makeup can do sometimes.

There are some women that are completely transformed by makeup. I know a couple of professional make-up artists in Colombia and often the before and after look like 2 different people.

I prefer the ones who can spend 45 seconds in front of the mirror and look perfect.

You do know that Hydroxychloroquine is an incredibly dangerous drug -- with side effects that can cause stroke and blindness-- right? I don't know whether you could find a pharmacy in Colombia that might sell it to you without a prescription. But there is no way you should be taking it except under a doctor's supervision.

Please stick to Viagra, not without risk of course -- they say you should call your doctor if you have an erection lasting longer than four hours, but I recommend calling an 18 year old Paisa instead.

I wasn't asking for advice about the efficacy of the drug. I merely wished to know if Hydroxychloroquine is available over the counter in Medellin. Thanks.

I can only assume you are a Trump disciple

I made fun of someone who blamed Trump for his not being able to get laid in Colombia. Now TDS has reached that point again, having sex with hooker one time in Colombia, a literal one in a million chance of getting Covid, is near certain death as is using an incredibly safe drug.


The real reason Texas has been the epicenter of the Covid storm recently is that the governor allowed people to gather in mass numbers again, up to 500. Politically, he didn't want to tell people they couldn't go to church and even if they did, said that they did not need to wear masks. This was a huge fuckup. He was upset he let the bars reopen, but it wasn't just the bars, it was the churches where people spew the virus by singing.

The problem with HCQ and with dexamethasone with long term use is that they suppress the immune system. So in theory, by suppressing the immune system, you make yourself more vulnerable to infections. That is what Lupus is, the body attacking its own soft tissues with antibodies.

So it is a little bit more complicated than good drug, bad drug. In fact, you want to use immune boosters like Elderberry prior to getting infected. When you start to feel sick and Covid is diagnosed, then you chuck the Elderberry and especially ibuprofen and go with HCQ and dexamethasone. Since the virus spreads via ACE receptors in the lungs, it is probably a good idea to get off ACE and ARB blood pressure medications as long as Covid is around. Also, you normally want to push fluids with an illness, but doctors have found it better to keep people dry which probably has to do with keeping aldosterone levels low.

And if you do not understand any of this, then by all means, quit giving out political advice that is disguised as medical advice. Politics is what got us into this mess to begin with.

If I had my way, we would be doing all we could to shift the infection from the very old where it is deadly to the very young who rarely if every die. The isolation should be isolating the young from the old not from everyone. That would achieve herd immunity and a minimal amount of death. Now though politically that is not achievable, (you are for infecting the Children!!!) and the total count of those infected is being used against various governments around the world. It never made sense to shut down the schools.

So the treatment for Covid, complete destruction of the economy, has been worse than the cure because of the politics and probably will result in more deaths than the virus ever did.

I think Sweden was the model of common sense. If you look at the number of deaths overall and due to Corona, you can see the response to Corona was worse than the Corona itself.

https://www.statista.com/statistics/525353/sweden-number-of-deaths/

https://www.statista.com/statistics/1105753/cumulative-coronavirus-deaths-in-sweden/

So now a corona death is a 100X worse politically than a death from cancer or heart disease and in Colombia, they have painted themselves into a corner. If they open things up now, Corona cases explode and the president will be vilified, so his only response is delay, delay, delay at least until after November. Then you will start to see stories about how the Corona threat was way overblown in terms of death and way under weighted in terms of going into massive debt and destroying the economy.

I've purchased blood pressure meds OTC. Have you tried to buy Hydroxychloroquine OTC?

(I was dating a chick in the Dominican Republic that showed me all kinds of pictures of her daughters. They were drop dead! Well when I was over to the house and met them, they were just some plain old seemingly shy chicks. I asked my girl about it. She said the pictures were the fixed up going out them..

A weak monger is one that tries to impress 3rd world hookers, and gives them"respect" like they are their hs sweetheart, hookers are typically the dregs of their societies, proceed accordingly!

I will challenge you, I can get a much better looking hooker with better service than you can with less money than you in any city in the world, so up your game and stop trying to destroy the market.

Like the losers did in Cocal, now you want to destroy MDE.

Here is a repost from 05.09. 20.

My apologies if I offended certain mongers.

I believe there are exceptions to every rule.

If you overpay hookers and you are very old or in a wheelchair or missing a leg or 2..

Sorry, never been to Cocal. Keep trying. I already told you where to find me. You're welcome to come and follow up on your threats.

I understand. It's your opinion. It's the same opinion held by millions of men around the world. Not that the label "men" is appropriate. You know the type. They don't know how to handle a woman except to "slap her around. " They get upset if some guy actually talks to "their" woman, so they go and "slap her around" some more. They bluster and make threats, but in the end, all they can do is go find a woman and "slap her around."

My ex's sister, a LCSW dealing with domestic violence, said that most men like that turn out to have been sexually abused by a male authority figure at a young age. So, it's kind of sad. Not forgiveable, but sad.

I've never had a problem with women "getting out of line", especially not one I'm paying. Generally speaking, I don't even overpay. I average right at the going rate, for the pool I pick from. A few times I've tossed in a bonus. Why not? A girl comes over for 1 hour and stays for 6 hours, does everything I expect and more. Why not? I'm getting 3 sessions worth for the price of 1. I end up paying less, getting more and the next time she's working harder and staying longer.

The problem with you emotionally stunted boys that need to "slap around" women, none of you understand basic math, or have any reading comprehension skills.

Let's deal with the reading problem first. I've never said that I overpay. I simply have said, many times, whatever anyone else pays is their business. No mongering destination exists solely for your amusement. If the price gets too high for you, move on. If the girls get tired of being "slapped around" by you, move on.

Now let's try some math.

There are roughly 4 million people in the Medellin metro area. Probably more when you add in the Venezuelans and the girls coming from other cities. Figure maybe 300,000 Colombian men who at least occasionally go out and pay for pussy. How many mongers? The big monger parties I've been to pull in about 100 gringos if they're lucky. Maybe at most 2,000 foreign mongers at any one time. You can discount most of the ex-pats. The ones I know tend to stick with the going rate or below and can usually find plenty of free pussy.

Let's go nuts and say half over pay. That's 1,000 people overcoming the 300,000 natives who are paying less than the mongers paying gringo rates and overcoming the 1,000 mongers paying the gringo rates.

To destroy the market, the average overpaying gringo needs to pay 300 times what the average Colombian pays. Using casa rates of 50 k per 30 minutes, that comes to 15 million COP for a 30 minute session. 45 million for a typical Facebook girl.

Now if 50 gringos at the same time, started paying 5 million for girls in Parque Lleras, you'd quickly see a flood of girls hanging out in front of the Beer Factory. But after a few nights of the cops dispersing them and going home with nothing, they'll all return to their regular routine.

Unless you're in a environment limited to gringos, a small percentage overpaying has no effect. 5 guys staying at the Mansion could cause a few problems for the other guys for a few days, if they're paying 500 k each time. But 2 weeks later, after the guys switch to casas and strip clubs, the price settles back.

I'm not particularly ugly, although at least one monger has called me that. I usually get "tan guapo" from the women, including the ones that I'm not paying. I'm not physically deformed, although that's also been suggested (by the same monger), not in a wheelchair, missing limbs, have a disfiguring disease, a nasty skin condition or dirty fingernails. I'm not going bald in an unfortunate manner. Not going bald at all yet. Not even the beginning of a thin spot. Really, it's a fucking glorious head of hair, worthy of a shampoo commercial.

You may believe it's contemptible for some other guy to pay more than you think they should. I think it's contemptible to slap a woman around.

I agree with everything you said except, slightly, that there is no way you will session in Centro. I learned years ago there is a lot of truth in the old saying of "never say never". Back to agreeing with you, I feel very strongly no amount is too much as long as the person paying it is OK with it after making an informed decision. The Medellin market is big enough to remain intact in spite of what happens on the low and high extremes of the payment scale.

You are right, if I see a pair of 18-year-old Rihanna and Shakira selling threesomes in centro, I will session with them there in a heart beat.
