I admire that in a leader.

It’s all about pissing of the right people. Anti-vaxxers are just a loud yet tiny minority of people. It’s fine to piss them off.

Donny pissed a lot of people off too. Unfortunately for him, he pissed off too many and they evicted his ass.

Don't remember
Please splain
IIRC? Back in the day when Covid was just starting to take over America and the western world, Babs and her friends [?], I thought had had Covid or she was posting about her friends having survived Covid and they were donating antibodies as fast as they could, for some treatment such as what is in that article.

I don't know how wonderful the vaccines are, or if they are improving, but it seems that they have found more and better treatments for those that have Covid. If they can't block folks from getting it by vaccine, it is a wonderful thing that they are finding out how better to treat the disease once a person has it. We don't hear much about intubating [thank god] but pills and potions and treatments seem to be healing more of the sick folks and releasing them back to their lives?

Anyway, that's sort of how I remember it, BBB mentioned extracting Covid antibodies. I may be wrong, I would not swear in a court of law that that is what she had done, but it's how I remember the story. ymmd

I would drink my urine if I was thirsty enough. It might kill me but it would take longer than dehydration to kill me.

It wouldn’t kill you. You are supposed to drink it if it’s a life or death situation.

Go over to WOV and suggest to be a contestant for the next consumption challenge. How much urine will you drink, and what's the bet going to be about.

(I have no idea what a safe amount of urine would be)

Survival skills teach you never to do so, the salt will just make your dehydration worse.

I have seen that disputed many times. I dont know what the truth is today. I believe the military suggests drinking it now when that desperate.

No, Sir you never drink Urine for similar reasons that you don't drink salt water. AZ is correct is causes dehydration and some Kidney issues that I forget.

The only time you drink Urine is if you have a urine filtration system, but unless you are an astronaut or on some high-tech ship you won't (in a wilderness survival situation you would never drink urine or have such a system).

You also are taught to never drink blood (contrary to popular belief).

Really the best thing to do is find a water source and boil it if possible.
