Yup. Thankfully the propaganda is not affecting the way people treat Covid.
Unfortunately the propaganda is STILL TO THIS VERY DAY affecting the way people treat Covid. For example, people are still unnecessarily putting on masks, mistakenly thinking that they can somehow protect people from viruses by doing so.
Only 15% of the population is now fully vaxed and boosted.
Cry me a river. A made up number, btw.
Good for you. Did you get a free toaster?
My niece just brought Covid into our family because she takes no precautions when she travels for vacation.
Oh no, THE HORROR!!!! Did you know that people who "take precautions" (wear a mask, distance themselves from others whenever possible, get jabbed umpteen different times, etc) STILL contract covid anyway? So why are you mad at your niece for "not taking precautions"? I don't get it. She sounds much smarter than you are btw...
Nor when she enters the house where her 80 something grandparents live.
Oh no, THE HORROR!!!!
As will happen to most people at one point or another...
medium severity due mainly to severe co morbidity in the grandfather. He'll be fine now.
So covid wasn't a "death sentence" then, eh... even for your 80+ year old family members?
My nurse GF caught it...third time since the trump virus hit our shores.
There is no such thing as the "trump virus".
Proper nouns are capitalized no matter how much you have been manipulated into hating certain people.
I call BS on "caught covid 3 times", but let's just accept that claim as true for sake of continued discussion about this.
Once before the vaccine was available.
So she caught covid TWICE
after the jab became available?
She's suffering a fever and average cold symptoms.
IOW covid is akin to a mild flu?
As mentioned, this is the third time she's had Covid, and I haven't gotten it once.
Have you tested daily or at least weekly for covid? You might "unknowingly" have it and might be "superspreading" covid to your 80+ year old parents... Yet here you are being mad at your niece for not joining in on your fear mongering...
I take Vit. C, and Zinc religiously every day. Been doing it for decades, but not religiously as I am since the trump virus hit.
Great! Adequate C and Zinc levels are good for one's health.
I never stopped masking in public,
I believe you. I don't understand why you continue to delude yourself into believing that a mask is doing anyone any good, but you do you.
but more for store employees than myself.
So fuck all of the other patrons then?? It's only the employees who you're concerned about?
Even so, this makes ZERO sense at all, especially given the fact that you just got done saying that you've never had covid. How do you figure that you, as a healthy person, could potentially spread a disease that you do not have to somebody else?
Says the moron who thinks that she, as a perfectly healthy person who is not infected with any disease, can somehow spread covid to somebody else.
this med student is a Right Wing loon with an agenda. Idiots will argue against every common sense protocol that will decrease the chance of getting sick.
No. Idiots, as a result of their own fearmongering, will beg and plead for tyrannical mandates that cause a whole bunch of harm to themselves, in exchange for governmental empty promises of "safety".
During the winter of mask mandates,
Which "winter of mask mandates" Winter 2020 or Winter 2021? In Dane County (Madison) Wisconsin there were two of them.
the incidence of seasonal flu was at a record low.
No it wasn't. Seasonal flu was simply reclassified as "covid" via the scam of PCR testing that was never meant for diagnostic purposes.
What we're seeing now, is exactly what scientists were predicting every year since trump infected most of the nation...
How do you suppose Trump "infected most of the nation"?? You give a lot of credit to one man!
when the weather gets cold, we'll see a spike in Covid cases.
Same with any other communicable disease of the sort (cold, flu, etc).
Thankfully, it's getting much more contagious, but much less virulent.
Tell yourself whatever you need to in order to stop fearmongering over what symptomatically amounts to a mild flu...
