The conspiracy theorists say COVId is just like the flu.

Me: Well, we take flu shots every year.

Them: Oh no oh no. Why do you need more than 1 vaccine shot for COVId ?

Me: Well you said it’s the flu and we need yearly vaccine for the flu.


Them: But it’s different. It’s made in the lab.

:unimpressed:


Don’t mind those guys they will never admit they’re wrong

You bout to get packed up, perfect storm :wow:

With all those factors in play, I legit wondered if he's suicidal. :heh: Even if one were to be skeptical of COVID (whatever that means), even a regular flu would be bad news for a lot of people who aren't the healthiest. But well, we all have our own choices to make.

Don't be shocked. Covid is a mutation of the SARS virus from 2002-3. That MF got off the bench and got ready to put in work. If the virus is Jordan, misinformation and human stupidity is Pippen. Human stupidty and greed allowed this thing to spread and kill as many people as it did.

Human stupidity and greed have not lessened at all in the last 3 years. People will look back at this time and think "shyt things were easier back then"

In fact, I'd say stupidity and greed's getting worse. Or, more specifically, the lack of empathy. Some care more about their own luxuries and comfort more than how it affects the next person, while failing to remember that it doesn't take much to wind up in the same situation everyone's trying to avoid.

I know I would hate being around people coughing and sneezing in the air, so I make it a point to not do that. It's gross. Just like how you go to some public places and the bathroom looks like a hurricane hit it, there are people who don't give a shyt since it's not their personal space. But when you pay it forward for the next person, and the next person also does the same, everyone wins. It's like how Japan tends to have cleaner streets, they hold their communities accountable and don't play games when it comes to stuff like that. We see the result.

They also wear masks over there normally and nobody freaks out. When people take others into consideration (or at the very least, don't want to risk public criticism and disapproval), you don't get people wilding out over things that should be common sense. Of course, that mentality can also come with flaws as well, but that's another topic entirely.

A colleague of mine was in good health. Early thirties. Caught covid in may, had flue symptoms for a week. Came back to work and felt weak. Called in sick. Hasn't been back to work since. I used to call him once a week to see how he was doing. He said as long as he stayed home, he was fine, but if he tried to take a walk, he wouldn't have the energy to get out of bed for a couple of days. Then one day he didn't pick up and later wrote me a message. Said he had to move in with his parents and that he didn't have the energy to talk. He'd call me when he'd get better. I didn't hear from him since, so I texted him yesterday to check on him. He send me a voice message today. Said things were looking better, at least he'd manage to go to the bathroom and return to his bed by himself once a day. This shyt is no joke, nobody knows who is going to be alright and who isn't.

:mjcry: long covid

I think that's what my pops has now, his unable get up from bed without assistance, some days he can go for a walk and others days, he struggles to do everyday activities.

long covid takes a while to get better, keep checking on ur friend. I been in a similar situation in 2014 (had to move back in with my parents). Just a text message or a voice mail from someone meant the world to me.
