Well, I couldn't care less if you believe it or not. I don't have to make anyone believe anything. Don't come to message boards if you don't want to.

I'm 100% recovered and I'm back to work at full speed.

Glad to hear it! And you did that without taking 10 pills a day like most people enjoy.

The only meds I took were given in the few hours I stayed at the hospital. Apart from that, I'm 100% recovered without taking a pill.

Congratulations, check back with us in about 6 months.

If you had stayed in hospital, you would have surely caught an infection that required a 3 month hospital stay. Hospitals are places of death, in the end you are in a much worse condition.

Wow. I'll have to tell my sister to check herself back into the hospital so she can endure her infection and 3-month stay.

I guess I owe a few hospitals several months of time in their buildings - a couple of car accidents, surgery to get my tubes tied, and a thyroidectomy - it must be some kind of clerical error that I didn't get infections each time.

Or - the other possible explanation - is that you are over-emoting your hyperbole to sublime ridiculousness. I'm not sure why you'd do that - it makes you sound ridiculous. So maybe you just don't realize how ridiculous it sounds. Maybe you truly believe that whenever someone goes to the hospital, they "surely" catch infections that require 3-month stays, because hospitals are places of death.

Perhaps you might want to check your own local hospital (don't forget to put on that tin foil hat along with your mask and personal oxygen supply), and ask the in-patients how many infections they have and how many months they've been stuck there. You might be surprised with the answer.

Yes, I lose count to the number of people that went to hospital for minor things and ended up dying there.

Perhaps their conditions were not as "minor" as you thought then.

Rather than personal anecdote though perhaps a comprehensive study on things like infection rates and deaths unrelated to check-in conditions would be a better approach. Or a few citations of same?

Your suggestion that going to a hospital will certainly end in infecton or death is baseless. Does it ever happen? Yes. There are such cases. Are there enough cases to become significant or to support your claims? Not even close.
