Dude what are you going to do when "normal" returns? Pretend like people aren't breathing on you? Toughen up.

Oh, you seem to think becoming infected from someone like you is a choice or a failing. It is not. Many people, the old especially, are vulnerable to this virus and count on people like you and me to keep them safe.

Unless that is too much trouble for you.

In any case, I am scheduled for my second vaccine next week.

Oh, you seem to think becoming infected means a sure death-ticket. It is not. Many people, the healthy especially, are not vulnerable to weak viruses, and we count on our elected officials to make sure we have our liberties intact even in the sake of safety and protection.

Unless that is too much trouble for them.

In any case, you are scheduled to get another experimental shot next week. Good luck.

Yet, one in every thousand Americans have died of this virus.

Sure. You can believe their faulty data if you'd like. It does you no good.

How many Americans do you know who have died of this disease? Have more people of your acquaintance died in 2020 than in 2019?

My grandfather, supposedly.

I was misdiagnosed with cancer as a child. For two months, the top doctors in in the Midwest thought I had cancer when I actually had a double sinus and ear infection. These people misdiagnose and mistreat all the time, Nema.

So have more people in your circle of acquaintance died in 2020 than in 2019? Have you noticed an uptick?

[–][deleted] 1 insightful - 1 fun1 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 1 fun -  (2 children)

Nope, although I do know of a few other elderly folk in poor shape who passed. Perhaps others have a different view, but I have a robust social circle with various types in it, and I live in an international city. I trust my eyes, not any kind of pulpit.

      That is the thing, ain't it? We can all say what we like.

      I'll have a swell week. Let you know if I die and stuff.

      Good boy/girl. Now do as Mark Zuckerberg and Big Daddy Bill Gates say.
