This is getting weirdly coincidental now.

Don't see why this is so controversial? I have no skin in the game. I think it's weird two employees of a major aviation company have died unexpectedly when in the process of exposing the company. Sure, it's a coincidence, major corporations have never played dirty and are deserving of our utmost trust.

TIL MRSA is a big mystery... reality is people who have something compromise their immune system are at huge risk in a hospital environment where all sorts of crazy stuff is floating around. Mega infections that are hard or impossible to fight in a hospital aren't uncommon, not a huge mystery either. The timing makes it seem suspicious, but if Boeing found a way to give this guy pneumonia making him vulnerable to infection while at the hospital.........

The conspiracy theorist in here believes Boeing is simultaneously hilariously incompetent and also a master of biological warfare.

They aren't incompetent. They are greedy. There is a difference.

To be fair, it’s probably much cheaper to carry out an assassination than to overhaul your supply chains

revealing what accounts. You think everyone in here that isn't jumping for joy at a tabloid (NYPost is a tabloid at best) article of nonsense works for Boeing or something?

MRSA is a well known nosocomial infection risk ( I'll wait while you look that up). There is no mystery. And it is one of the reasons why health professions have been yelling for decades to not prescribe antibiotics like they are vitamins.

I understand being skeptical of the mainstream narrative on things, believe me, but I think accusing random people of being psyop/bot accounts in an aviation forum is a bit too much. This a forum for aviation enthusiasts, not a forum for aviation conspiracies. Anyone is welcome to their opinion on such things, but I don't think it's a stretch for people interested in aviation to be willing to give a nuanced position on, arguably, the most important airplane manufacturer ever.

They do if they work for Boeing. See there's so much Boeing managers specialized in MRSA on this sub suddenly. I'm afraid, even though they couldn't find me on the map. Well, maybe they could if they could only fly over here...

And here we had a guy intubated because influenza B. So tell me was he compromised or not?
View on Reddit #25632769

SpillinThaTea@reddit

I don’t know the guy so I can’t personally speak on his health situation. However, looks like he had an appropriate body weight for his age and unless he smoked like 3 packs of cigarettes a day and was virulently anti vax he should have been able to pull through this.

Everyone reacts differently to different diseases. Covid kills some of the most athletic people but an overweight person with heart disease might not even get symptoms. Yes a person in good shape would have a higher survival rate, but it’s not 100%. Even chicken pox will kill some kids.

I was a healthy 46 yr old when a MSRA infection popped up on my left side that required two emergency surgeries and a gapping 5 inch wound that took 6 weeks to heal.. MSRA is present in the soil and on your body all the time. The conditions have to line up then boom you’ve got a real scary case of MSRA which will scare the medical professionals to death.

MRSA is common in hospital. Especially if you are immunmo compromise.

The level of ignorance in here regarding MRSA is really astonishing. Some people don't want to be educated, and so I will agree to not waste my time attempting to do that.
