I honestly can care less what you or anyone thinks about my outlook on this. I have watched a perfectly healthy family member die from COVID and witnessed patient after patient getting wheeled into parking lot COVID tents on a respirator. This shit is real. I don't like but I am taking it seriously. And yes I have a healthy fear of it. Anyone who doesn't are just fooling themselves.
On another forum I frequent, I remember when someone posted the news links where the MSM reported that
to wit, 'the hospitals were overflowing, ERs are packed...etc etc'
One of the more forward thinking people on that forum suggested that as many as possible go out the next day and take photos of as many ERs as they can. Several did just that, including me. Of all those photos from all across the country each one
without exception showed an ER that looked like a ghost town. The only people visible were the bored and idle workers. I wonder if you actually saw "patient after patient wheeled into the parking lot" or you are just repeating what you heard on MSM (you know, the one you stopped believing in years ago).
BTW, I have not stopped living either. We have simply adjusted to a lifestyle change and taking precautions like most anyone else. Those that are bragging about going maskless and hanging out in crowds obviously can care less about anyone. So why would anybody want to hang out with that kind of person?
If you adjusted your lifestyle because of outside influence then you have stopped living
your life, you are now living the life someone else has dictated to you.
Who is bragging about going maskless? I didn't bring up my maskless habit until I read the shittyness spread by the collective in this thread.
Yes I would like it if everyone got vaccinated but I'm smart enough to know that it's not going to happen. My biggest complaint is the distribution of it for those that are at high risk. I consider my wife who is a renal patient and my 82 year old mother in law at a greater health risk and more deserving of the vaccine than an undocumented alien in my country illegally or convicted child molester on early release. If this makes me a hypocrite then so be it.
We can agree on that. IMHO Anyone who wants the vaccine should get it, with those that have contributed to society being first in line.
As long as we are vaccinated, wear masks, and distance ourselves, the risks are a lot less to get COVID. Those who are choosing to thumb their nose at this should be put at the back of the line for vaccine and let Darwinism take over.
I've thumbed my nose and don't even want to be in line.
About half of my family has had the china virus and each has said its like a bad cold. A few neighbors have had it and say the same thing. They all recovered..... which is actually better than the almost 98% survival rate for those under 65 years old.
We'll have to pick this up in about a month, I'm going to ride a cross country loop from Utah to Texas then north a bit and home.
I admit while on this ride I might catch the china virus, I might get ran over by a texting driver, I might get hit by lightening, but I
won't stop living until I'm actually dead.
