re: Remembering the absurdity of 2020

The outside seating areas in big cities amaze me. So if you take 2x4's and plastic sheeting and make a room with a window unit. This is now magically safer than being indoors?
So why not put up lights and tanning bulbs inside buildings if UV really did kill it? (I put a uv light in my ac to test a system I was considering selling and installing. )
We should have hit the wall early on. Treated it like chickenpox. They said "the hospitals would be overrun". I guess I'm the only one that remembers the empty convention center hospital and the empty hospital ships.
Once we got heard immunity the virus became an after thought.
I know people who test positive now and just wear a mask and go about their day. Don't even lock down.
Treat it like the flu.
The 1% death toll was over stated.

Trump did say that there were only a few cases of Covid and it would all be gone by summer. Then the media would forget all about it.
I wonder, did the families of all those who died from Covid feel the same way?
Trump wasn’t the fricking virologist here and should if anything have continued to listen to his own instincts when it came to HCQ. Instead he listened to Fauci and media pressure. Trump was weak, and this pandemic could have ended by April 2020 should we have actually listened to “the science” and gone with HCQ, ivermectin, and monoclonal antibody treatments. Instead millions died thanks to a genocidal piece of shite wanting to make some cash.

I’m almost positive the data for each respective state’s COVID case counts indicated there was almost no correlation between government mandates and “stopping the spread”.
My favorite is when our lousy excuse for a governor would bring the mask mandate back and "enforce" it, and our covid cases would perfectly coincide with a neighboring state that didn't have a mask mandate.
And then they'd praise the mandate for working. It was truly madness and honestly thinking of 2020 makes me equally depressed and angry.
The fact that there are some people in this thread defending makes me want to arrange a Sonic meet-up

to be fair we also had posters celebrating the idea of the unvaxxed being fired and suggesting the unvaxxed shouldn’t be admitted to emergency rooms or hospitals
Jimmy Kimmel went so far as to say the unvaxxed should be banned from hospitals and be left out to bleed to death in the parking lot. These people are evil.

The "everyone died from Covid" people are as bad as the "everyone died from the clot shot" people

Imagine how they feel now knowing their family was murdered bc HCQ & IVM were withheld from them.

The Albertsons by my house blocked off one of the entrances. I'm not really sure what that was supposed to do to stop the spread.

Trump had two bad choices. Do what the establishment was asking for in shutdowns, or have the Media and the "established medical community" start a much worse panic.
We know what he chose.
Now, why was Trump as POTUS so dangerous that these people had to engineer this plague? And who are these people? Who was Fauci and the scarf lady taking their cues from?
This was coordinated across the western world by the media and their Gov't "experts". Anyone with different advice was either ignored, discredited, or excommunicated from the "establish medical community".
There are a lot of people out there that will be whistleblowers. Inside the pharmaceutical companies, and inside multiple governments.

I was assuming he was talking about that there isn’t anything that comes close to Covid. Only thing I can think of was the internment of Japanese citizens in WWII, but even that pails in comparison.

No I’m agreeing that’s it’s the biggest frick up ever.

I remember driving through Northwest Arkansas on the interstate and the electronic message boards basically saying some variant of "Don't Stop Anywhere"
