If we had universal vaccination, it would have blunted the pandemic. Instead, we had too many "internet researchers/scientists."
The first half is mere speculation (and arguably provably false given what we now know about how vaccines do virtually nothing to actually slow the spread of the virus) and the latter half is factually false. Vaccine uptake rates were quite high; if I recall correctly we went from 0 to 60% of the population being vaccinated in the span of 6 months. Yet, that wave of vaccinations didn't drop the per-case mortality rate anywhere near what the Omicron variant did. That is just a fact. Go look at the CDC's official numbers.

My kids had Covid before I was eligible for the vaccine, I felt a little off for a day after living in modest house with a shared bathroom. A few months later, I had a one-day fever, and I lost my sense smell for months after a dental cleaning appointment.

After that I decided at that I was immune.
Solid, indisputable research.

He’s only immune from COVID in his mind. People like this are superspreaders. I will continue to wear my mask until we have cases under 100 per day.


They/them, non-binary and proud.

Remember that “2000 Mules” was concocted by a circus of elephants.
The right needs to stop worry about what’s between people’s legs. Instead, they should focus on what’s between their ears.

You do you, covid Karen.


What's more pathetic: harassing an old man who is paying to do a radio show or supporting a grifter like Trump?

Here lies a man who asked that his mask be on as he lay in state.

I am not a COVID Karen. I have chronic pre existing conditions. I already have issues hearing, and COVID could make me go deaf. I was in the hospital 3 times in 2020 so I think I don’t want to go through that shit again.

What the fuck happened to you? You used to be a reasonable person. How does me wearing a mask hurt you?

Well... if you catch it again then you'll decide you aren't immune after all?
Living in modest size house with two Covid positives, why should I be worried now? Besides they only had mild cold symptoms (before Omnicron).

I stayed off work for 10 days. I wore a P100 mask (one that actually worked). There never was risk to anyone else.

Their reactions are NOT an indication of what yours would be.

You're right, my immune system is probably more experienced with coronaviruses and dealt with it quicker.
