Here’s someone that blindly follows what the lying media sells.
To be fair, I was initially freaked out as well.
I work in an ICU. Initially, it was bad, fair number of people dying pretty quick. I had former co-workers catch it and die, or have long Covid. I’ve had it at least three times, the second time was bad. I’m still dealing with the after effects.
But in other ways it didn’t make sense. Husbands/wives living together, sleeping in the same bed, one gets it and dies, the other never tested positive.
People who became hermits, stayed inside isolated, quarantined their mail, had friends/family drop off groceries that had been wiped down with bleach caught it and died. Fat slobs with every risk factor known caught it and survived with no issue.
I took the 1st shot and the booster (Moderna) because it was required at my job. But the pressure put on to get vaxxed, the stupid deals made in some places to get vaxxed ( free hamburgers, fries, doughnuts, lottery tickets) made the whole deal ridiculous.
What made it more ridiculous? Medical professionals having their careers threatened, in many cases fired. Parents being arrested for taking their kids to a wide open playground. The surfer arrested in California, who was the only one out there. Certain businesses were forced to close, others could stay open. Grocery stores put stupid fricking arrows on the floor telling you which way to go. The lies and obfuscation about where/how the virus originated. Kicking out military members who refused the shots. Liberals proclaiming those who weren’t vaxxed should be isolated, humiliated, and persecuted. NYC claiming they were overwhelmed, then turning down assistance from Trump with the hospital ships. Film of people in China just dropping dead on the street. People dying alone in the hospital because family weren’t allowed in, then in many cases weren’t allowed funerals. People were denied the right to go to church.
Yet BLM rioters were allowed to roam free.
I hope it’s all made people skeptical of anything the government does. I was already skeptical pre-COVID, more so now.
Scary thing is? Lot of people are still blind to what’s going on.
