I have to say it.. there's no pandemic. Just look at the Fauci's e-mails if you don't believe me or you don't want to believe because you're scared to death. There's no need to wear a mask in public, unless you feel bad. In that case you should stay home anyway as you probably should've when the world was relatively normal. We didn't wear masks during flu epidemics, there's no reason to do it now. Just protect the older people and those who are more vulnerable. Unless of course, you want dead economics and desperate people. The world can't do this forever.
And this is the important part: We can't survive dead economics. Desperate people will turn to violence for survival if it gets bad enough. And when innocent people start being attacked and killed for whatever they have, then we've lost all of our social fabric that holds everything together.
And then EVERYBODY loses.
If people want to wear masks 10 years from now, let them.
Except for my property or business. "Mask off for identification" will be posted, and you'll have to remove your mask long enough for my cameras to get a clear look at your face. Then you can put your mask right back on and come on in!
But I'll tell you this. I had a lot of house work done last year. Probably had as many as 30-40 people doing work of some sort or another over the course of the year. And I told everybody masks are optional on my property, after said identification procedure. What counts is that they were welcome and appreciated to come onto my property and to work on my home.
Nobody wore masks. Purely optional. But nobody wore one, even if they arrived with one on.
Lol…explain that to the 600k that lost their lives in the US
You can throw that number up EVERY TIME YOU DISAGREE with somebody, and it still doesn't matter. Remember, they were counting heart attacks, bee stings, broken legs, and in a few cases CANCER as "covid cause of death", even though some people with those things actually GOT BETTER AND WENT HOME.
So throw that number around all you want. Personally, I think it's at least 50% inflated. Maybe even 80%. And this is all the fault of the corrupt media AND it's ALSO the fault of the permissive public that didn't demand that the media report the truth.
The upshot is that I don't believe it. A lot of people don't believe it. And you using it won't change anybody's mind.
I don’t know about you, but I find it somewhat difficult to bring myself to smile and say hello to people who don’t give a **** whether I or others live or die, and/or won’t concede a nanometer of so-called “intrusion” into their lives regardless of the collective benefit—themselves included—it would represent to society.
Call that a harsh line to draw, but it’s there.
Well that's sad for you then, isn't it, to trust nobody? I don't know what I could say to change your mind, so I won't waste either of us's time trying to do so.
Over reaction. There are very few people in this world that have such harsh beliefs as you describe. However, many that have reached opposing conclusions to those that you have and voice them in strong terms.
Personally, I believe the vaccine is a good thing and very beneficial to many vulnerable people. It’s an individual risk/reward equation the each person needs to make. As someone with the antibodies, it is an unnecessary risk to me.
I respect all peoples choices, until they impact my ability to choose. I won’t tolerate that one bit.
Good points. I did get my vaccine; both doses. And I know people who didn't get it. Whatever; let's move on so we can make some money and invent some cool stuff!
...we can’t keep doing the mask thing for another year, it’s getting ridiculous especially for public transportation and supermarkets.
Yep!
I did my part, I shouldn’t be restricted for others ignorance considering the vaccine is available so much abundance.
This too!
Happy Shopping Debt slaves 🤣
Funny but also sad. I'm debt free. Own my house and my car outright. Highly recommended.
And it will cause your brain to take new meaning from the word "liberty".
Isn't this the truth. My friend teaches in Wuhan and was there when all this broke out. They were all confined to their apartments for about 10-12 weeks, with food being delivered to their lobby. All we've been asked to do is wear a damn mask..... even if the mask is proven to be ineffective, flu data suggests they've done a great job, all we have had to do is wear a mask and keep a bit of distance.
I really don't understand what you've written. Are you saying you're happy for the mask? You hate the mask? You can't wait to get out of the house? I totally don't get you here.
Ok Mr. Science;
Do you really not see that you're just saying vaccines don't work and people should just contract covid naturally? You know....what they call....natural immunity?
If your science says the vaccine doesn't work, why should anybody risk a FDA unapproved experimental chemical cocktail shot into their bodies? Why are government organizations offering free school tuition and wheel of fortune style lotteries to promote people getting vaccines? Why did we risk people dying from a vaccine that doesn't work? Your level of self-contradiction is actually amazing.
I applaud you, ser.
Um, I think you also may have self-contradicted once or twice in your missive above. Can you clarify your position?
lol This makes zero sense. You can still catch and spread the virus just as easily if you're vaccinated. Are that many people ignorant? I guess it's not about the virus after all. It's just about pushing for vaccine travel passports/identification. So you're allowed to enter an Apple store without a mask if you're vaccinated and still spread the virus to anyone else inside the store and also catch the virus. Makes sense.
The masks are actually useless because the virus enters your tear ducts and ears more easily than your mouth and nose. So personally, I don't care about the masks anyway. It's Apple's reasoning (and everyone else's) I find hilarious.
The only thing the vaccine "might" do is reduce the severity of symptoms and that is a mammoth unknown. No one can tell me that's a fact because all of them are still under stage 3 clinical trials which means nothing is fact. There's simply no way to argue that. They are not approved final stage vaccines. This means they are lab-rat-level experiments and the results may not be seen/known for a decade down the road. Maybe 20 years down the road, --maybe unknown until your kids become 30 and develop some odd genetic disease-- Can anyone show me 5 year Covid-19 vaccine clinical study results? How bout 2 year? 1 year? lol
I can understand maybe if you are 75 years old, don't really care about your health, cannot have children anymore, just want to travel to Bali before you die and are ok with potential heart and organ issues. However, if you are someone who is entertaining the idea of having children, be prepared for the possibility that any kids you have after getting vaccinated may develop very serious health issues and major disabilities.
The best anyone can say is that the vaccine hasn't made you vomit for what 30 days? Is that good enough for you? If so, then you don't deserve to give birth/have kids if that's how little you value your new child's health. If you don't get the vaccine you might die you say. So what you're saying then is you value your life over your newborn's. Good logic.
TLDR, but I think you are against the vaccines. Right? Okay, cool; have a nice day!
Yes you do and others have a right to not wear a mask. So dont get all uppity with them because they dont want to wear it when they are not sick.
Dude, I love the use of the word "uppity". But then you go ruin everything by omitting the apostrophes in "don't". Why?
You don't get it, do you?
"I don't want the vaccination."
"THEN WEAR A MASK! YOU ARE PERFECTLY FREE NOT TO DO SO IF YOU JUST WEAR A MASK."
"But I don't want to wear masks."
"THEN GET VACCINATED! YOU WON'T HAVE TO WEAR A MASK IF JUST GET A VACCINE."
"But I don't want the vaccination either."
LOL, funny when you say it that way.
But there's actually a third choice available: Don't get the vaccine and don't go anywhere. Then you won't have to wear the mask. Simple, right?
IMHO the CDC has way more information than you do, and its not based on your "Me" vision. Now that Joey B is running the government we can't blame their decisions on the other guy.
What you left out of your equation of vaccination numbers is the number of people that have had it as well. The walking immune. You have....vaccinated people, those that have had it, those that have had neither and those that have passed. I would bet we are at least at the 70% mark if not higher for the vaccinated, those that have had it or those that have passed.
Also around the end of March hospitalizations starting going down. It was theorized at the time that vaccinations were up, those that had it already were was way up and those getting then/now were a younger group of the population that if they did have symptoms just rode it out like any other cold/flu.
Where I live the pandemic is over. My state followed the CDC directive a day after and I hardly see anyone wearing a mask anymore.
I don't trust the CDC because it's a bureaucratic government lap dog. But I had my vaccines and they say I don't need a mask, so now the mask is in my back pocket in case I need to go someplace where they still need me to wear one. Like if I need to get a smoothie or stock up on ammunition; you know, essentials like those!
