Try to keep up

You conveniently ignored the obvious explanation that hospitalized patients would have been the most severe cases.

Do you think they were just intubating healthy people? That shite was a last resort.

Getting senile must be rough.

No, don’t try “your best” to not get covid. Try your best to not be run over by a train. The consequences of that are bad! The consequences of covid could be bad, but most likely it will be like a mild cold or the flu.

You are giving advice that, if followed, would cause people to isolate from society. That is ridiculous advice for such a mild virus.

Covid is a vascular disease. It is demonstrable and proven fact that it can permanently damage your circulatory system, harden arteries, and dramatically affect grey matter in the brain.

It’s also demonstrable and proven that it usually doesn’t do shite.

Maybe you don’t know what this word means. Studies from three medical journals does not qualify as rhetoric. I suppose the American Heart Association in 2023 is propaganda to you? Yeah, your concern about people not going to the doctor was definitely genuine.


You’re trying to convince people to be scared of Covid.

Until you have given us your ironclad plan on how to combat the virus (outside the usual washing hands, masking, distancing) then you’re just another covid rhetoric lunatic. It’s a fricking virus. Nobody wants it. But we also don’t want to hear your bitch arse cry about it 24/7

You’re putting words in my mouth. This is not what asking people not to downplay something means.

Except the flu can’t harden your arteries or mess with the grey matter in your brain. This isn’t something it only does sometimes. And it isn’t something temporary. It’s only the severity that varies.

I’m not telling people to wear masks or become hermits or even to get vaccines.

I’m asking people to quit acting like it’s just a cold just because they’re miffed about 2020.

When “please stop downplaying this” is all it takes to trigger people, that is concerning.

I just think it’s important people understand those particular symptoms are unique (and commonly overlooked).

That’s all.

So hospitalized patients with other serious conditions weren’t severe cases of that particular condition? How do you know? Why were they hospitalized?

We live in the stroke belt, and shockingly few people are even casually aware that Covid is a vascular disease

Dude, nobody reading your posts has any doubt about that. It feels as though you’ve posted that 800 times.

I have never heard anyone refute that covid MIGHT cause problems. Same is true of the flu. I’d rather we didn’t have the flu or covid, and we would not have covid if the NIH had not funded gain of function research at the Wuhan Lab.

The point is that you touchholes telling people to “do your best to avoid covid” are giving terrible advice because the consequences of “doing our best” are way worse than the median consequences of getting covid…or the flu.

Alright doc, what should they have done with their ICU Covid patients? I can’t have a serious conversation with someone who thinks doctors the world over conspired to murder people en masse.

This is just an early start on the Mid-Term variant. Dims need some lockdowns to get their stealing ways back.

Why do I have to believe that to understand you were more likely to die in hospital with Covid than other conditions? Please explain…

Zero chance of the flu causing any chronic illness other than slipping into pneumonia.

The entire point is that this comparison is silly. And no, I detailed exactly what I meant by “being careful”. There is no chance of another lockdown. This is reactionaries’ narrative, not mine.

And yes, I’ve repeated myself. Would not have needed to if people would read.

Global murder conspiracy. Your doctor wants to kill you. Never see a doctor.

And the flu is genuinely dangerous to children, while covid is not.

Well, that sounds reasonable. “Try your best not to get covid” smacks of wearing masks, social distancing, etc. Glad you clarified.
