I always find these discussions on vaccines very interesting. Here in Australia we have the ‘Australia government initiative policy ‘ No Jab, no play’ and as a Registered Nurse , I had to prove that I had received all my vaccinations and they were up to date before I was allowed to work in a NSW public Hospital.
@@HeidiDressler working in the lab at our infectious disease hospital they met us at the door at certain times with our vaccines. Not a problem with most employees, no one wanted to spread stuff to folks already fighting enough. This in the USA southeast.
@@2degucitasthis initiative was put in place a few decades ago, very well received and ‘common sense’ Nowadays it’s a very important policy, there are a teeny smidge of parents who are antivax who have to pull their kids out of kindy/not enrol in school since the kiddies don’t have their jabs. Hopefully we continue to roll out easy to understand information so this doesn’t get out of control all over the world!
Mike you do a great job of asking questions the average person wants to know the answer to, and not just accepting the answer given and continuing to have them explain why. Love this podcast, I have learned a lot and feel I can make better educated decisions for me and my family
This was a complete softball interview, Mike is intellectually arrogant and completely disregards “the other side” on a lot of these topics, and doesn’t ask tough questions when it ideologically aligns with him
Thank you for clarifying that we didn't have NO experience with mRNA. We had not had a vaccine based on it at that point. But the research into mRNA vaccines goes back decades before the COVID vaccine.
Research into coronivirus vaccines as well. Im not sure he said it here, but on some other platform he basically said that a lot of why so many covid vaccines were ready for trial so quickly, was that several Sars1 & Mers candidates were already on the shelf.
I'm so glad that in a world full of people trying to trick people and spreading misinformation,Dr Mike is still determined to actually do good for the public and spreading knowledge and accurate information.been seeing your channel since it started ❤a huge fan who will support you to the end beyond.
I work in Quality & Regulatory for an FDA regulated industry (medical device). We have 2 separate teams to handle the FDA. We have Regulatory team to handle the premarket submission and approval and the quality team to work with the yearly QMS inspection(s) to show we are continually compliant. Its not easy to just get through for FDA approval
Doesn't change how compromised and corrupt the FDA and CDC are. Did u see the updated childhood schedule recommending mrna boosters to infants? Sickening... Then u got these propaganda bots censoring
Thank you for having these complex discussions.I really liked how you mentioned using social media analytics to shed light on better ways to communicate.
People also didn't realize that COVID also had myocarditis risk and that risk was more severe and more damaging to the heart. Yet we freaked out over the mRNA vaccine for having a rare and very light risk of it. Risk assessment is terribly poor in human behavior.
It was also about stopping the spread of it. All ages can spread it. Our hospitals were full and a modern society can't function without medical Care: for example, breaking your leg, but having to wait a week to be seen cause it's not life-threatening.
Well if you realised what you just said, think about how we needlessly put kids and young teens at risk by giving them the vaccine? They would see almost none of those heart problems and bounce back from the infection EASILY. But this vaccine was mandated WHILE keeping that myocarditis risk secret, and more than anything, it makes people feel betrayed and gaslit.
People really can't understand this for some reason. Also, mrna vaccine didn't cause blood clots. So many people say it causes blood clots or call it the clot shot.
From what I’ve seen and discussed with people, the modern concern around general vaccinations revolves around the quantity and frequency of injections, particularly with younger children. Also, there’s still abundant skepticism around mRNA technology, and whether some of the widespread health issues countries are dealing with post-pandemic are causally linked to adverse effects, or whether these simply correlate and the mechanisms that make mRNA vaccines work are largely safe. I personally feel like it’s okay and important to discuss these topics openly, especially when adding in the context of how diseases in the past ravaged entire populations. Meeting skepticism with censorship or questions with insults isn’t the best way forward. Conversations like these could go a long way in advancing public awareness and understanding.
@@FunderDuck your first concern was covered. Not sure you watched or payed attention to that part. Today’s childhood vaccines schedule contains less ingredients and covers more than any previous schedule.
@ yes, I watched the full video. And my comment was more to present common criticisms rather than my personal views. It was great to see Doctor Mike articulate the common questions and concerns some people have around this topic. There is a world of difference between acknowledging someone’s question and then providing a response, as opposed to brushing off the concern entirely as dumb or dangerous. I think many academics would prefer it if everyone in society just outright trusted their professional positions. However, with the collapse of institutional trust largely driven by the pandemic, rebuilding that trust and general public education on important topics sometimes requires going back to basics.
@@FunderDuck The criticisms are NOT valid though. You're implying that the negativity is based in intellect and logic. No it's based on conspiracy theories, lunatics and people trying to make money/promote their own ideas. If you don't believe that. the fact that discussions still occur about the earth being flat is proof.
My father, who who read Dr. Spock before I Was born 69 years ago, Was a fan of vaccines, so he sabes me from polio, amongst many vaccines all of us getting yearly. So now, when the Government says, you need this vaccines, I Am first in line.

There are Medical Boards for all 50 US States and they regularly advise members of Congress. On a federal level there is the NIH, National Institutes of Health, which consist of 27 different institutes, the most notable being National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, which Dr. Fauci was the head of from 1984-2022.

The only vaccine that I've ever questioned was the Covid vaccines... mostly because of the speed of how fast they developed it. That worried me but I still got it. ETA: I didn't say that I didn't understand the vaccine for Covid now... this was back in 2021 when I got it the year before my dad's death. I don't have any questions now, people. I just meant that, at the time, I worried about it... and my worries were valid...
do you know that speed has nothing to do in testing ? the only reason the "old" vaccines took years is because it was hard to find volunteers. do you know that for some vaccines they tested it on like 300 people why covid was tested in 10 000 people ?
Good to hear. The speed at which the covid vaccine was developed was largely due to our familiarity with coronaviruses; mRNA technology has been around since the 1960s; using liposome delivery mechanisms were developed in the 70s. There are some 80s and 90s research in there, too. The foundation of the research that went into the development of the covid vaccine is quite old by this point. The media failed spectacularly, as they usually do, when it came time to educate the general populace. This was basic stuff that should have been widely known.
I found this super informative, and some of this my med student friends or medical staff friends were also saying in the beginning. As someone who grew up as a sickkid with epilepsy of course, I've had disasters with medical problems. Though i wouldn't be here without doctors that worked hard on medications. Also, i had to have boosters on a few vaccines cause of my hospital stays, and because of that, i didn't get sick with things trying to recover from bigger issues. Nurses, doctors, and techs are the majority amazing people and to see people not trust the professionals that dedicated their life to save ours makes me sad. It's healthy to have questions or concerns, but listen to the answers carefully and wven a second opinion is fine. Though if two or 3 professionals tell you the same thing, be open to learning n correction. Thanks doctor mike for such a great video ❤
Or Malone wouldn't. I've listened to too many virologists and immunologists and other health professionals and read too many studies to believe Malone. Just because a person is smart and well educated doesn't mean they can't go off the deep end. That's how we get weird cults!
10:50 What answer did Dr. Mike expect? That the guy, who is currently sitting on the comittee, throws his colleagues under the bus and abuse their trust??
My entire life (50 years old) I have become extremely sick from vaccines. 5 years ago I was diagnosed with Aggressive Rheumatoid Arthritis. My doctors and specialists recommend vaccination. When I explain my history with vaccines, they tell me I'm wrong or was probably sick from something else. Am I crazy?? Dr. Mike, would you address immunocompromised people and vaccines?
Some people are sensitive to immunizations or must avoid them altogether. I’d suggest looking around for doctors that make you feel supported and heard. Unfortunately, doctors are still people and some are quick to dismiss or generalize concerns brought up by patients. In any case, this also highlights the importance of having everyone else that can handle immunizations have them as necessary. If they’re immunized, it reduces the risk of you contracting an illness you can’t otherwise be immunized for
Well kind off. With vaccines you may get what is called flu like symptoms or other similar adverse events but you don't get the disease. The idea is that you don't get the disease that can have serious effects instead of self limiting effects the vaccine might give you.
@@miri2046 My family and friends are vaccinated in hopes they won't give me anything. As far as doctors go, they are few and far between in the backwoods of Alabama. We have a couple of nurse practitioners close, they say get the vaccine or don't get it. 🤷🏼
If you switch parachutes with the person who packed them and that person will not jump there is something wrong. 14:55ř NOT worth the risks for him or his family. Yes he has said it publicly but I bet most who give it to their child based off his encouragement do not know this.
Hey Doc, I have a very important question, the polio drops that are given in India, which version is it? Does it still carry the same risks as the live version of Sabin's oral version? or was it modified in order to nullify the risks of actually getting polio??
@@soraceantIndia isn’t classified as a third world country anymore, so depending on how their science and medicine departments work will determine which one it is. India by now has advanced medical research and they do a lot of work with American medical researchers so I would imagine they have access to the same as us.
That was addressed in the talk, the live vaccine is easier to give in areas it would be difficult to reach everyone with folks able to safely inoculate the Salk vaccine. If they are getting drops I expect it is Saben but if shots Salk.
The one used in India is likely the Sabin oral vaccine, but there’s an updated version of it with a much lower risk of reverting to wild type. Possible that it’s the new one? Pulse Polio is the name of the program in India.
I’d rather trust a preprint that’s been transparently updated multiple times than a peer-reviewed article that never evolves after publication. The prevalence of p-hacking, HARKing, and other statistical issues in medical research is alarming. Even worse, some tenured doctors dismiss these concerns, brushing them off as 'normal' because 'everyone does it.' This mindset needs to change and I wish these researchers had a more open mind about (open) science.
Long COVID & vaccine study? Is this "Association Between BNT162b2 Vaccination and Long COVID After Infections Not Requiring Hospitalization in Health CareWorkers" in JAMA 2022? If it is, the subjects are health care workers, mean age 41-44 years, BMI 23.5-24. All health care workers were required to receive 3 doses of vaccine (BNT162b2) even they have long COVID. This study is not a formal journal study in JAMA as usual. Dr Mike, please correct me if I am worng.
Katalin (Kati) Karikó and Drew Weissman - my heroes, not that it matters to them when they've had a Nobel Prize. (Edit: Dr Paul Offit now hero, too.) Edit 2: Dr Li Wenliang because Dr Offit mentioned him, "whistle-blower" in China, who died, but didn't say his name, should be honored.
Hi Mike, may we know why you did not ask the Dr what are the reasons that the rest of the world do not give Covid vaccine to 6 month olds and up, only in the US. Something to ponder. It’s important to see what other western nations recommend for the vaccines and why America is so different.
Individually the technologies were not new. LNPs, mRNA (with modified bases), understanding of translation and targeting of translated protein to cell membranes was well understood. However, what was new was the bringing together of all these technologies into an application for the soul purpose of generating an adaptive immune response, and generation of immunological memory, in humans. Operation warp speed allowed this. I seriously doubt if the mRNA-based vaccines would have been developed without it.
Dr Ottis said that the next pandemic illness will most likely come from bats. Do we have to worry about the wild bats in the US? I am thinking about the large colonies in Austin and near San Antonio. People come to watch them fly out hunting at night.
I'm so GLAD the US recommends it for everyone, otherwise people like me (not in a high risk group) wouldn't be able to get the insurance to cover a vaccine that I want to get.
It’s about the media’s coverage, period. I won’t name anyone but so many representatives acted like there were no legitimate concerns and that they were oracles of truth. Being humble about the limits of knowledge would’ve been a seatbelt for public trust.
@@soraceantI don’t know what they are referring to but 11:50 he mentions the Trump administration. OP might have been confused like me because Biden was president during that time. Edit: unless it occurred during the last 2 months of Trump’s 1st term since the first reported case of COVID was in like Nov 2019, right?
I have a question on a topic that i’m wondering if you could talk about, is there any healthy ways to treat hyperhydrosis, would it be healthy for someone to have botox injections to stop the production of sweat, I know that sweat is how we shed through toxins and whatnot although i feel like there has to be some procedure that would not cause harm although help the person with their condition. Also not a ton of people know about it with only about 3% of the U.S. being affected by it.
so at 26 minutes he admits he's merely making a mechanistic argument, it's an evidence free argument, even in front of congress or whatever this is the human incarnation of an "argument from authority"
That’s not quite what he was saying. He said that he finds mechanistic explanations are more convincing to your average person than evidence-based explanations. He’s not saying there’s not evidence for it, he’s saying that when he explains it that way people don’t seem to buy it, but when you explain it by way of mechanisms, people are convinced more.
Hey dr mike I’m pretty sure there’s a low chance of you replying or anyone atleast but I fell down and hurt my self because I was walking on wet floor so I slipped, though after 2-3hrs my right hand shoulder started paining so bad, especially when i inhale.If you can please reply I wanna know why this happend, how can I cure it my dreams to be a doctor too!!
Hey Dr. Mike im a huge fan and i have a question lets say a young woman goes into a coma do they still have periods or do the periods temporarily stop?
Anti-vaxxers always want to talk about how many people they know negatively effected by vaccines. Well I've seen a lot of unvaccinated people get very sick w covid while vaccinated people, when they got covid it was very mild.
I wouldn’t consider Dr Gundry a scientist worthy of praise. I’ve listened to him many times A scientist would use something else, like data, not anecdotes.
@nancymueller6206 Indeed, they are examples of MD's getting things wrong consistently. My point is that there are both MD's and PhD's on YT that are poor science communicators. No need to single out PhD's, as Mike appears to do.
An off topic question, but I've been wanting to ask you for quite a long time: I play Taekwondo (martial arts) and recently I have sustained some injuries (July till now) but I have not been to the doctor because I can get by my every day without much issues: When I rub my tibias on both legs (the lower section), I feel these bumps inside? And it hurts, mildly. However, I think my left leg worsened. What I mean that is when I squat all the way down, where the calf muscle actually comes in contact with the bottom of my thigh, the entire calf muscle becomes sore, hurting if you will, and soon it goes numb as if I had cut off blood circulation. This is quite recent, about a month ago I started having the calf issue and it also feels like it's hurting between the bone and the muscle I hope you could give me some advice on how to relief the pain, thank you doctor Mike
Hey i doubt you'll see this, maybe someone else can give me some advice here anyway. Recently, my grip strength in the gym has been suffering really badly. There's no pain, but after doing just lateral pulldowns as my first movement, i can barely squeeze/produce decent force. I have also been waking up with numb hands like circulation is cut off, and i think its related to the grip strength since it started around the same time the numbness had. My actual grip strength hasnt declined, it just takes hardly anything to burn it out if that makes sense. I dont want to go to a gp since i feel like it could literally just be that im sleeping on my hands funny.

Here before the "vaccine skeptics" arrive. Just wanted to say thank you Dr Mike, we appreciate you and and Dr Offit
no. dr vershavsky is just deleting comments
Have Offit and Malone do a debate. Offit never would.
Or Malone wouldn't. I've listened to too many virologists and immunologists and other health professionals and read too many studies to believe Malone. Just because a person is smart and well educated doesn't mean they can't go off the deep end. That's how we get weird cults!
It would give Malone credibility to stoop to that level.
I love your videos Dr Mike
27:14 perfect pun!
10:50 What answer did Dr. Mike expect? That the guy, who is currently sitting on the comittee, throws his colleagues under the bus and abuse their trust??
My entire life (50 years old) I have become extremely sick from vaccines. 5 years ago I was diagnosed with Aggressive Rheumatoid Arthritis. My doctors and specialists recommend vaccination. When I explain my history with vaccines, they tell me I'm wrong or was probably sick from something else. Am I crazy?? Dr. Mike, would you address immunocompromised people and vaccines?
They will not. The government won't allow him to.
Some people are sensitive to immunizations or must avoid them altogether. I’d suggest looking around for doctors that make you feel supported and heard. Unfortunately, doctors are still people and some are quick to dismiss or generalize concerns brought up by patients.
In any case, this also highlights the importance of having everyone else that can handle immunizations have them as necessary. If they’re immunized, it reduces the risk of you contracting an illness you can’t otherwise be immunized for
Well kind off. With vaccines you may get what is called flu like symptoms or other similar adverse events but you don't get the disease. The idea is that you don't get the disease that can have serious effects instead of self limiting effects the vaccine might give you.
@@miri2046 My family and friends are vaccinated in hopes they won't give me anything.
As far as doctors go, they are few and far between in the backwoods of Alabama. We have a couple of nurse practitioners close, they say get the vaccine or don't get it. 🤷🏼
@@davidr9589 how do you imagine the government would stop him from addressing it?
12:00 - best subtle joke ever 😂
Seems like Dr. Mike has something with Dr. Attia. 2nd podcast in a row he's referenced him kind of dismissively
1:06:26 I think the National Society for the Defence of Heavy Metal sounds awesome but that might just be because I'm a music guy.
All I know is that the flu and Covid could send me to the hospital and right now my work is still using UHC.
If you switch parachutes with the person who packed them and that person will not jump there is something wrong.

NOT worth the risks for him or his family. Yes he has said it publicly but I bet most who give it to their child based off his encouragement do not know this.
Hey Doc, I have a very important question, the polio drops that are given in India, which version is it? Does it still carry the same risks as the live version of Sabin's oral version? or was it modified in order to nullify the risks of actually getting polio??
I believe it's the live version still outside of America in third world countries
@@soraceantIndia isn’t classified as a third world country anymore, so depending on how their science and medicine departments work will determine which one it is. India by now has advanced medical research and they do a lot of work with American medical researchers so I would imagine they have access to the same as us.
That was addressed in the talk, the live vaccine is easier to give in areas it would be difficult to reach everyone with folks able to safely inoculate the Salk vaccine. If they are getting drops I expect it is Saben but if shots Salk.
The one used in India is likely the Sabin oral vaccine, but there’s an updated version of it with a much lower risk of reverting to wild type.
Possible that it’s the new one? Pulse Polio is the name of the program in India.
Offit alludes to the Bundaberg Disaster around 1:05 or so.
That might make for a fun episode of medical history.
I’d rather trust a preprint that’s been transparently updated multiple times than a peer-reviewed article that never evolves after publication. The prevalence of p-hacking, HARKing, and other statistical issues in medical research is alarming. Even worse, some tenured doctors dismiss these concerns, brushing them off as 'normal' because 'everyone does it.' This mindset needs to change and I wish these researchers had a more open mind about (open) science.
Long COVID & vaccine study? Is this "Association Between BNT162b2 Vaccination and Long COVID After Infections Not Requiring Hospitalization in Health CareWorkers" in JAMA 2022? If it is, the subjects are health care workers, mean age 41-44 years, BMI 23.5-24. All health care workers were required to receive 3 doses of vaccine (BNT162b2) even they have long COVID.
This study is not a formal journal study in JAMA as usual.
Dr Mike, please correct me if I am worng.
I LOVE YOU DR. MIKE 🥰
Katalin (Kati) Karikó and Drew Weissman - my heroes, not that it matters to them when they've had a Nobel Prize. (Edit: Dr Paul Offit now hero, too.) Edit 2: Dr Li Wenliang because Dr Offit mentioned him, "whistle-blower" in China, who died, but didn't say his name, should be honored.
1:13:52 trolley problem!!
Brother Mike is on the hunt ! 😆
This is such interesting information, but I was distracted because I think the doctor sounds like J.K. Simmons.
If Aliens abducted me and asked me to choose a spokesperson for humankind, I would choose Dr. Mike. Mike you the man!
I love your podcasts. I actually finished the whole video in one sitting while playing Roblox. lol
Hi Mike, may we know why you did not ask the Dr what are the reasons that the rest of the world do not give Covid vaccine to 6 month olds and up, only in the US. Something to ponder. It’s important to see what other western nations recommend for the vaccines and why America is so different.
I Love you videos Dr Mike are very important for humanity everything related to health ❤❤❤
Individually the technologies were not new. LNPs, mRNA (with modified bases), understanding of translation and targeting of translated protein to cell membranes was well understood. However, what was new was the bringing together of all these technologies into an application for the soul purpose of generating an adaptive immune response, and generation of immunological memory, in humans. Operation warp speed allowed this. I seriously doubt if the mRNA-based vaccines would have been developed without it.
mRNA vaccines were already a plan, this is just the first time they were tried because they needed such fast turnaround time.
Dr Ottis said that the next pandemic illness will most likely come from bats.
Do we have to worry about the wild bats in the US? I am thinking about the large colonies in Austin and near San Antonio. People come to watch them fly out hunting at night.
After nine seconds, wow
I have never been so early to our lord and saviour's video before, 👋Doctor Mike!
I'm so GLAD the US recommends it for everyone, otherwise people like me (not in a high risk group) wouldn't be able to get the insurance to cover a vaccine that I want to get.
13:52 Imagine if that was all medical research. We could have advances in medical science year after year.
It’s about the media’s coverage, period. I won’t name anyone but so many representatives acted like there were no legitimate concerns and that they were oracles of truth.
Being humble about the limits of knowledge would’ve been a seatbelt for public trust.
I love dr offit
Doctor Mike could you do a video about St. Denis Medical?
How does the overturning of chevron affect the medical world
Blunt reality is that Chevron wasn’t really a thing even before it was officially overturned, deference simply wasn’t happening.
Did the good doctor somehow miss the white house headlines amidst the thousands of journals published during the pandemic lol
What were the headlines?
@@soraceantI don’t know what they are referring to but 11:50 he mentions the Trump administration. OP might have been confused like me because Biden was president during that time.
Edit: unless it occurred during the last 2 months of Trump’s 1st term since the first reported case of COVID was in like Nov 2019, right?
@@CocoForBirdwow you’re just really really confused about when anyone was president.
Lost count of the amount of Covid boosters I’ve received over the last few years. Life is all about the choices we make.
I have a question on a topic that i’m wondering if you could talk about, is there any healthy ways to treat hyperhydrosis, would it be healthy for someone to have botox injections to stop the production of sweat, I know that sweat is how we shed through toxins and whatnot although i feel like there has to be some procedure that would not cause harm although help the person with their condition. Also not a ton of people know about it with only about 3% of the U.S. being affected by it.
so at 26 minutes he admits he's merely making a mechanistic argument, it's an evidence free argument, even in front of congress or whatever
this is the human incarnation of an "argument from authority"
That’s not quite what he was saying. He said that he finds mechanistic explanations are more convincing to your average person than evidence-based explanations. He’s not saying there’s not evidence for it, he’s saying that when he explains it that way people don’t seem to buy it, but when you explain it by way of mechanisms, people are convinced more.
@jacobjensen7704 he was literally legally ordered to provide actual scientific evidence and still didn't
Has dr Mike talked about United health and Insurance at all? Did I miss it?
Can you do a podcast with Paul Saladino
Can someone explain what they meant by imprinting, ie. by the way someone react to flu, they can infer how they are born?
I watch the whole video it was pretty long and I got tired 😂
I don’t know y I’m laughing tho 😭
Hey dr mike I’m pretty sure there’s a low chance of you replying or anyone atleast but I fell down and hurt my self because I was walking on wet floor so I slipped, though after 2-3hrs my right hand shoulder started paining so bad, especially when i inhale.If you can please reply I wanna know why this happend, how can I cure it my dreams to be a doctor too!!
See a medical expert.
He is one
1:24:20 “this was not a lab leak”
It will be interesting to see how this statement ages
Pengolins also weren't mentioned. Shame.
Hey Dr. Mike im a huge fan and i have a question lets say a young woman goes into a coma do they still have periods or do the periods temporarily stop?
if RFK becomes health secretary or whatever, we're gonna need Doctor Mike to interview him.
That would be a good interview
No. That would legitimize his position
Why should Dr. Mike interview a germ theory denier like RFK jr?
Anti-vaxxers always want to talk about how many people they know negatively effected by vaccines. Well I've seen a lot of unvaccinated people get very sick w covid while vaccinated people, when they got covid it was very mild.
if we have another pandemic mis, dis, and malinformation will be the least of the “consensus” worries.
The bit from about 3:00 to 7:30 paints a deeply insulting picture of scientists. Have you forgotten about Dr. Gundry, Dr. Saladino...?
I wouldn’t consider Dr Gundry a scientist worthy of praise. I’ve listened to him many times
A scientist would use something else, like data, not anecdotes.
@nancymueller6206 Indeed, they are examples of MD's getting things wrong consistently.
My point is that there are both MD's and PhD's on YT that are poor science communicators. No need to single out PhD's, as Mike appears to do.
An off topic question, but I've been wanting to ask you for quite a long time:
I play Taekwondo (martial arts) and recently I have sustained some injuries (July till now) but I have not been to the doctor because I can get by my every day without much issues:
When I rub my tibias on both legs (the lower section), I feel these bumps inside? And it hurts, mildly. However, I think my left leg worsened. What I mean that is when I squat all the way down, where the calf muscle actually comes in contact with the bottom of my thigh, the entire calf muscle becomes sore, hurting if you will, and soon it goes numb as if I had cut off blood circulation.
This is quite recent, about a month ago I started having the calf issue and it also feels like it's hurting between the bone and the muscle
I hope you could give me some advice on how to relief the pain, thank you doctor Mike
You need to go to your doctor.
It's not legal for Dr Mike to give you medical advice unless you become his patient by seeing him
Hey i doubt you'll see this, maybe someone else can give me some advice here anyway. Recently, my grip strength in the gym has been suffering really badly. There's no pain, but after doing just lateral pulldowns as my first movement, i can barely squeeze/produce decent force. I have also been waking up with numb hands like circulation is cut off, and i think its related to the grip strength since it started around the same time the numbness had. My actual grip strength hasnt declined, it just takes hardly anything to burn it out if that makes sense. I dont want to go to a gp since i feel like it could literally just be that im sleeping on my hands funny.
Free pizza after 10 doses; I’m dying!
The risk-benefit on pizza is definitely worse than the vaccines.

Me on my way to the comments 🏃🏻♀️with my popcorn🍿like it’s a free show🎟️waiting for the vax debaters to go off against each other🎬
We need to start addressing people's actual concerns with vaccines instead of just running to the "antivaxxer science denier" label immediately
Sure, but most of those "concerns" are based on lies, misunderstandings, misquotings and misinformation.
I am a RN. I do address their questions. They choose to believe social media influencers. What can we do?
@@MNP208yes, the COVID jab apologists have no influencers behind them at all. 😂
