Hi
You are obviously a person with very strong views on certain medical related issues, something we have in common.
The difference being that our views are polar opposites.
Firstly, some general background information, I do find context important in so many things.
I have never been either Police or Military, but have always been a Government Employee, a different type of enforcement, dealing with Public Health and Public Safety, nothing special at all.
No powers of arrest, an annoying Civilian, very annoying at times.
The 5th Amendment as you have in the USA, here in the UK, it is the You do not have to say anything Caution, still applies, I have to be clear on that, but then continue with, however, in this instance that does not apply as it is a matter of Public Health and/or Public Safety.
Anything you do say cannot be used in evidence against you, however if you refuse to answer my questions, you are committing a Criminal Offence.
Simple fact of life, no comment or misinformation which could lead to the injury or death of others, means you can be locked up.
I am not rambling or going Off Topic, just setting the scene.
These electric exercisers do work, developed for rehab of Military Seriously Injured.
They enable the injured or those who need serious surgery, such as joint replacement, to be rehabilitated.
They get things moving and pumping again, instead of just leaving them permanently injured because of pain and lack of movement.
They supply oxygen to the Muscles and stop further muscle wastage.
For the very Frail they may be permanent solutions to get some form of Mobility.
For many others, like myself, they are an essential beginning to be able to walk again, improving your quality of life is what you want.
My injuries at work were life changing.
I used them when I came out of Hospital recently, so much freedom and self respect.
Now gone back, I am sitting here on purely Mechanical exercisers, no electricity at all, purely Muscle power and looking forward to being able to walk on my own again, get myself a coffee etc.
They are an essential start to be being more self reliant and having a much better standard of life.
If they had been around 35 years ago, my life now would be so very, very different.
Enough for now, I have similar views on Medication, the 30 pills a day plus others are what keep me alive.
I like being alive.
