One in four Americans say they will NEVER get a COVID-19 vaccine

My second cousin says he tested positive for Wuhan Virus, which surprised him, because he feels fine.

That's about the same experience as my wife's second cousin.

Makes me think the tests are wonky. Sounds like they are both false positives.

Or maybe the test works, but the virus is mostly harmless.

Patrick says

I think it's both. Test doesn't work AND it's mostly harmless.

I've tested twice. Self administered at a CVS drive through. One I didn't want to test positive for travel reasons. They watched me through the window, but I basically gripped the swab stick higher up and barely even put it in my nose. I wanted a negative test so I just tried to rub it on the outside of the nose just in case.

The other time I was legit sick and stabbed that fucker to my brain hoping to find out. Still negative even though I got sick 1-2 days after 2 people tested positive that we hung out with. NYE. Sharing/touching food and utensils.

If I had Covid it sucked. That said, it's the flu and that sucks too. The dozens I know positive at this point, it's minor if they even know. Congestion or feels like a sinus infection. Which as crazy as it sounds, if you have sinus issues it's hard to smell or taste things... imagine that.

Not at least until Tiffany Dover says it's Ok.

Pete Buttplug Mulling Mandatory Negative Chi-Com Virus Test for Airline Passengers

Good luck. Airline lobby is too strong. It's been a year almost and I don't believe there's been a case known to have come from travel via airlines. People got it before or during their travels. One of the main reasons I think this virus is a joke having flown on I think 14 one way flights. Hanging out in terminals having some beers with unmasked people. The virus is not that contagious or dangerous. Will be gone by the summer is my guess, but we'll have to wear mask, just because.

Stronger than Democrat "science"???

If this passes short airline stocks.

Only the ass-probing variety of the test would qualify.

World's second-oldest person, 116, survives coronavirus: 'I didn't even realize I had it'

Patrick says

World's second-oldest person, 116, survives coronavirus: 'I didn't even realize I had it'

lol. I just have to laugh at this point. What else can you do? It doesn't kill children or someone that is 116. It kills the unhealthy, majority being older because you're generally unhealthy, less active, more disease, etc. But this shows it simply isn't that dangerous and likely points to people dying because of other ailments and not because of covid.

The suicides haven't been as bad as I've thought, but I'm just basing that off my network of friends and peers. Everyone needs to just open back up. I know I've been a broken record on the topic, but I'm just sick of it. Masks do nothing. Our most masked time is when the virus spread the most. Instead of asking why, nah, just double mask... WTF?? All this after masks don't help?

It was a rare occasion at first. But the amount of people I'm seeing wearing masks inside of cars when I travel to bigger towns is staggering. You CAN'T get covid driving in a car. It's impossible. Wearing a mask in a car is probably more dangerous than texting and driving. You'll just be touching the mask more, while driving and probably after touching a surface with covid and attaching it to your mask. I wonder if they're going to start tracking auto accidents while wearing masks? Maybe that's an angle to push to fight against masks? Science and data clearly doesn't work at this point.

Since we have "0" FLU cases from a year and nobody die on FLU, so what actually Coronavirus is?
To me is simply WUHAN FLU.

What major stars, beside Maryanne from Gilligan's Island, has died from the Wuhan?

Didn't it kill Tom Hanks?

My dad died of cancer 2 years ago. I know about 4-5 others that have died of cancer as well since Covid started. I don't personally know anyone that has died of Covid.

My own mother in law just got over a bout of cancer. So did my best man's mom. It wasn't pleasant. Months of treatment and suffering.

I know dozens that have had Covid. Sniffles and no smell. One guy was a pussy and was also withdrawing from smoking high THC weed all day every day for years. He just went to an urgent care clinic to get checked out. All of them would want to get Covid over cancer.

I've also done some traveling. Plenty of geezers in the airports. My broken foot got me to board with the cripples and the lying geezers that are too lazy to walk. On two trips there was a line of 7-10 of us. There and back. Everyone 65+ and some ailment that put them in a wheel chair with no cast or lower body injury visible. Walked to their seat. Diagnosis... fat, lazy and old. Should have never been there.

Fact is the people that die from this simply don't care. Why should we? There are far worse ailments out there for people of any age. Sorry for any geezers here, but I think we need to start shaming them. Flip the script. Start yelling at old people to get the fuck out of a grocery store or public place. Or yell at them in an airport and tell them I'm wearing a face diaper because you don't stay home. I feel bad doing it. But I also feel bad for my kids, the people out of work for months, some almost a year. We've gotta try something different. Not wearing a mask hasn't been effective on these idiots.

WookieMan says

It's true. They try to apply guilt, but it's their own selfishness that has devastated the economy. There would be no reason for anyone to close their business if those selfish fools would just stay home if they're afraid.

Then again, all this was greatly exaggerated specifically to harm the economy to punish us for voting against the elite. And it worked.

Btw, both my parents died of cancer in 2008. Very rough way to go, took 5 years each. A couple of weeks from the Chinese flu is instant by comparison.

Jesus, sorry, that's rough. Took a decade for my dad, lung first and then liver, but most those years he was functional. The last 6-8 months were complete misery. I have no clue how my mother put up with it. My dad was terminal with the liver and outlived their diagnosis by almost 4 years. Supposedly only one of ~15 people that lived as long as he did with his variety of liver cancer in the nation. Stubborn mother fucker.

Maybe we and others are jaded with having experienced similar things with family and friends. Covid seems so trivial even if it is real. Last time I saw my dad I puked. Holocaust victims looked better. It makes the masking and other shit all the more frustrating. I'm sorry 90% of those that get Covid got the sniffles and couldn't smell. Who fucking cares.

And I don't do this to brag. It's just a statement. I've traveled during Covid more than anyone I know. My wife has worked out with a group of friends that do that every morning at 5am in a group, inside or out. We've hung with neighbors for hours every weekend, 3 of which tested positive for Covid 2-3 days later after a hangout. Maybe I've had it. Either way, it's the least scary virus/pandemic anyone could dream up. It's a joke if you've witnessed real suffering. You Karen me, expect to get destroyed. Big time. I'm done.

Exactly. This whole thing virus is stupid.

People think they're going to live forever. They're not. They are just fucking up life for everyone else with their selfish and objectively crazy paranoia about a rather weak disease.

It's criminal that we punish children so that we MIGHT add a little time to an old person's life.

My anecdote re: the almost non-existent "deadly pandemic" is my trip to my market today. I shop at a smallish locally owned IGA with, at a guess, 40-50 employees. When this shit started a year ago I was pretty bought-in (natural germ-o-phobe) and would scurry around with latex gloves and mask on buying essentials that my wife would wash when I got them home. We were being advised to "quarantine" our groceries in the garage! It is fucking embarrassing to me now how fearful it all was. I saw a woman in the market parking lot spraying the soles of her shoes with sanitizer before getting in her car.
I thought at the time that some employee at this market, many of whom I know, would surely die from this terrifying plague. The workers themselves thought so as well, they were very worried.
Well, today I was chatting with my checker and the upshot, a year later, is not one employee, working all day exposed to the public, has gotten the bug. Zero, nada.
My only question is, is all this explained by some absurd incompetence feed-back mechanism or is it really part of some gigantic nefarious scheme?

Media? Scheme? Government? Pick your poison. Maybe all in cahoots?

At some point you have to trust your gut and anecdotal evidence. And real evidence that's provided, then form your own conclusions. We are tracking a flu bug. Plain and simple. Yes it can kill you. Will it, no. In your story above about the market, you're far more likely to die slipping and falling because of a slick floor. I've had a paranoid neighbor spay everything and quarantine groceries as well. The brainwash was immediate and quick. Fortunately she sees that now.

We knew from the word go, this was effecting elderly people. The data was public, still is. Guess what, still effecting elderly people. It is the single biggest beef I have with Trump's presidency. We should have locked up elderly, provided them financial assistance and food. They shouldn't have been allowed to leave the house. 70+ you stay home. If family chooses to visit, that's your choice. If you're outside the home though, you're fined and arrested if a repeat offender. Draconian, but less so than shutting everyone the fuck down.

Hopefully this was all just one big mistake of a reaction and not some conspiracy. Either way it was botched to the max any way you look at it.

Obviously it's the masks. With these new aggressive Wuhan's coming out they will have to wear two masks.

The nefarious plot is to slowly strangle us.

I think Democrats conspired to inflame and inflate the over-reaction for political reasons, fucking over millions just to get at Trump.

Ditto.

Don't go there man. Traffic feeds ad revenue. Let the alt media give them click revenue but hopefully out their extreme bias. Make sure to make fun of CNN viewers though and website users.
