re: So much doom and gloom from hospital directors across the state

So you don’t want to know why there is a nation wide spike in rsv in the middle of summer and a high number of adults with it? Do you not have critical thinking skills ?

---

Your entire dumb as shite argument was that RSV was spreading because of lockdowns, which is complete horse shite because schools remained open from august to may in Georgia last year without a single lockdown.

I don’t know why RSV is hitting now, but it’s not because schools closed. Don’t worry, summer is almost over and your kid will be in school soon.

So school was like normal - no hybrid systems to lessen class size, all school wide functions were the same, no staggered recess times for younger kids? All parents let their kids interact the same?

What about adults? Nobody worked from home, same amount of social interaction?

If you don't think any the above happened and didn't contribute to somewhat weaken people's immune system then you are a straight up dumbass

IF anything i think covid gets worse in winter months based on last year. We shall see.

You think? You know there is data for this right?
And since when does fall=winter?

We had a spike in LA in the summer last year then it waned in the fall and then we had another spike around the new year

When the weather is nice and people spend less time indoors it helps

I hear ya man. The only thing I can tell you that I agree with from the government is to get your vaccine. I been working on the covid floor and I'd say that roughly 95% of the ones we get right now are unvaccinated. The ones we do get that had the vaccine do better and go home after a few days. Take that info as you will. I cannot tell anyone to get the vaccine as it's their body.

I totally get your mistrust from the government as I have my doubts on most of their recommendations too. The mask thing should be a citizen's choice. Basically if you are old or have some preexisting co morbidities, then i suggest you wear it, otherwise its up to you.

As for shutting the economy down......no. We cannot afford that again. If only our "LEADERS" used a more common sense approach to all of this, we would be much better off.

Let me know what ya think tgrgr00

100% agree with this.
