Special treatment if you get the shot(s)?Why not make it indoor masks for all? If this was such a dire situation then everyone should be asked to mask, but this constant muddling policy will only drag things out. I expect the threats of lockdowns to follow soon.

The truth is without draconian measures to enforce these selective (and mostly arbitrary) edicts, human nature will rule the day. Instinctively I can see the hypocrisy of those who craft and impose the “covid rules”, especially politicians and the media mouths who personally break them.

I ain’t buy it and if there’s businesses being shutdown again this fall and winter we have to say no this time. Seriously the damage last time was unbelievable and so widespread.

It alone has caused many people to die from suicide, be financially ruined for life, suffer untold mental and physical trauma, plus putting the fear of certain death into people who take authority figure rhetoric at face value. Damage across all walks of life and especially for those with the least. Inflation is rampant leaving them further behind.

It’s crazy times. I just hope it doesn’t get stupid crazy again with lockdowns and business shutdowns. People have got to have the courage to say no, there will be another way.

Do my part because you say so ? Or how about the flip flop know it all fauchi ? Or how about the lying politicians ? Why are illegal immigrants let to run free without a jab ?No, I will do what is good for me. I trust my doc so far. I have had covid-19 twice. So far, haven’t been in a hospital yet. I ain’t saying don’t get jabbed. I am saying I will make my decisions for me, and you can do the same. God bless and good luck.

If you think drowning in your own snot is something to aspire to; go for it. 👍👍
But…
Your advocating for others to join you in this expensive and contagious suicide is irresponsible at best and somewhere between a Banzi charge and Jonestown at worst.
I’m so very sorry your tender feelings and precious “rights” are somehow offended by these common sense measures to protect the public’s (that would include you) health. 🥺

Drown in his own snot? More propaganda. That is silly and is not going to happen unless he’s obese or has other serious health issues relating to covid vulnerabilities and if that case you take other protective measures, basically follow science.

If you get covid-19, there a good chance you will have lung, kidney or heart damage. Then suddenly, you too will have co-morbidities. Then again you won’t necessarily know you have a co morbidity until you get covid-19. For example “Overweight people are more likely to have high cholesterol, but thin people can be affected as well.” Or you may have a defect in your heart that you don’t know about until covid-19 stresses it. Simply getting older accumulates co-morbidities, active or not.

Then there is the all the noise about the Delta variant. Why? Because ““There is a clear shift among those claimed by Covid-19 in the second wave. A lot more people with no comorbidities are dying. A lot of younger people are dying, something that we did not see last time,” said Abhijit Chowdhury, a public health specialist and a member of the state government’s task force on Covid management.”

This smug and great emphasis on being an appropriate weight as a safeguard against covid is like whistling when walking past the grave yard. It makes people feel like they are immune but everyone ends up in there at some point. They wouldn’t be whistling if they were deep down aware of it.

“A lot more people with no comorbidities are dying. A lot of younger people are dying”

No. A lot less people are dying . Where are the numbers that support this claim?

Yeah so you’re living proof that the virus isn’t transmissible or deadly. Case closed. Thanks for your sacrifice. That’s all the anecdotal evidence I need!! After affects of Covid infection-zero for you so it would be the same for everyone, right. I hope you’ve informed the CDC of your scientific findings.

No. They can’t save us from angry amputees or keyboard warriors sharing bs links.

But they can significantly reduce the spread of Covid to vulnerable people who cannot get a vaccine for one reason or another.

Although what is your point? This lady got covid-19 and MIS is a rare but serious condition associated with COVID-19. So it would seem that doing everything possible to avoid it is a good thing.

“What those figures don’t tell you is that many people who clear the virus will then experience unexpected and potentially severe complications. The phenomenon has come to be called “Long COVID,” a chronic version of the illness where patients continue to exhibit various symptoms even after beating the virus. ” “These conditions can appear without warning after a coronavirus infection is cleared, but there are sometimes signs that a patient will experience MIS-C or MIS-A.”

Sooo. Let me get this straight. If you are vaccinated you can still catch and carry covid but you don’t have to use a mask. Hmmmm.

I suppose where they don’t is an assessed measure of the lower risk involved. But where the risk are high, masks are required of all.

Required? Mandated? Or recommended?
