re: My experience with the Covid

Heard this happening many times. Working, living with someone that has/had CV19 but not contracting the virus.

I had two employees working together and both started showing symptoms and tested positive.

One got over the symptoms within a couple weeks but has retested positive 3 times...he's still quarantined at home.

The other ended up in ICU for 34 days on a vent and passed away this past weekend.

So continue to make your jokes and remarks but try to stay safe and healthy.

Sorry to hear that. What was the demographics of both workers?

Well at first when the mortality rate was looking like 2-3%, those numbers are kinda scary. But now it’s just become fashionable to worry about COVID

TYFYS

Maybe you already had it and got him infected you insensitive prick.

I’ve had 100 exposures face to face as my patients in past week and I’m still fine. I did get rapid test last week to make sure I was negative before I went down to in laws. I’d rather get it at this point and gain some kind of immunity

I came up negative.

I understand that there are more false negatives than false positives. RIP

I understand that this is a sad situation, but this is also life. I can't imagine my wife or I would feel if one or the other passed away. But it will happen eventually. And especially when someone is young, it's tragic. The story about the broadway guy killed me. Young, married, seemingly great relationship, small child. And he is dead. That fricking sucks.

I'm okay with wearing a mask indoors until there is a vaccine. My issue is not with the mask, rather the behavior that accompanies the mask. So when COVID is over are we still going to have people pushing for mask mandates during flu season? How about just generally? here in Boise we have an indoor and outdoor mask mandate for public spaces. Nobody follows the outdoor mandate because it demonstrates a gross misunderstanding of how the virus spreads, but it still kinda makes me queasy to think about a path we could head down. And people think you're being hysterical when you bring this up, but shite can turn hairy real quick.

And lastly, perhaps my biggest gripe, is that we are expected to wear masks for the benefit of other people. I totally get it, because I don't want anyone to get this illness. But to be quite blunt, because I'm tired of holding my tongue about it, I don't actually care if anyone outside of my family and friends gets it and I don't expect anyone other than my family to care if I get it. Again, I don't WANT anyone to get it. But most people will be fine, and that's just hard data. I don't know when the collective consciousness changed that we should be doing everything we can to avoid any type of illness, but I think it's very dangerous. I am not the least bit religious, but why is it such a taboo thought to say that if you get this disease and medicine can't help you, perhaps it was time to go? And that goes for myself as well. If the entire thing is that we are wearing masks to stop the spread of illness that for MOST people in the world, very little happens, I can't jump on board 100%.

TLDR; I like the idea of wearing masks indoors, I don't like the way the mask mandates have been implemented because they show a gross misunderstanding of the data. The idea that nobody should get sick scares me.

Then what’s with all the hysteria

I promise you that if Obama was still President, there would be no hysteria. According to the liberal news media everything would be under control with nothing to fear.
