So.....about Covid

My mom just said its on the rise again. Is this true? Do I have to whip out my damn mask again? :confused: :frowning:

Also are you worried? Do you plan on masking up again?

And whats up with clocks? Why do they have 12 numbers that repeat themselves instead of 24? Questions for you to ponder.

Iā€™m not worried. Not gonna wear a mask but my dad wants me to get another Covid booster when I get my flu shot this fall.

Supposedly thereā€™s a new strain and they gave it a cool sounding name. I canā€™t remember what it is

Itā€™s almost flu season here and I think we need to start calling it flu and Covid season :expressionless:

Was it the ā€œBowens varientā€? Cause that would be rad.

Concerned and not masking yet. Maybe in the winter when weā€™re stuck inside.

The @Bowens variant would include a pimp slap to the face!

I think covid wasnt quite as bad as the media and governments made it out to be. I knew friends who lost their livelihoods and businesses due to lockdowns and that. But im no expert.

It was probably worse in densely populated areas. But Iā€™m just speculating. Havent looked up any data on that to be honest. Iā€™d be more worried about it in New York City than where I live. You would think dense population would make it easier to spread.
Again, just speculation though.

I have dead friends and relatives. I have a friend with cancer who didnā€™t get the scans he needed because the hospitals were clogged with covid patients (mostly unvaxxed morons) and they sucked up all of the resources.

Oh, it was definitely a real and dangerous thing. I got when I was triple vaxxed I think. And I dont even go out that much. Got it from my dad. Mom avoided it altogether.

Edit: I took Paxlovid though, and would do it again if I get infected.

Im so sorry you lost people in that time. Yeah the health systems couldnt handle the immense amount of people panicking about and getting covid. But i dont know much really. My life hardly changed during covid because i pretty much already self isolated most of the time. I got my vaccinations though. If only so i could go to certain shops and work. And in the hope that i didnt pass it on to someone else if i had it.

I never stopped. :mask:

Covid is definitely on the rise again. A friend of mine said there was a covid outbreak at the senior assisted living facility where her dad lives. Fortunately, most cases were not serious. Also, one of my co-workers recently attended an all day meeting and 17 people who attended the meeting ended up with covid. She was sick for about a week.

Its ok. In the fall colds and flus will be on the rise too.

Its all in the severity. If it makes you sick for a week or 3 thats liveable.

But the invisible long covid part is not fun which im pretty sure i got from it, the whole brain fog cognitive issues.

Itā€™s unfortunate you canā€™t say how you feel about this whole thing or talk about about it other then going with the narrative because you will just get censored, that in itself speaks volume about the current situation.

You mean youā€™re upset because you canā€™t spread false information and promote stupid conspiracy theories? Thatā€™s what it sounds like.

Good question. Its like when your parent asks you to do something but really theyā€™re telling you what to do and I dont think you want to hear what i have to say.
