The Coronavirus thread

fully immunized with all the protection available.

You're simply too dense to understand what the term means.

Oh, this is precious. The dude who was clearly NOT "immunized" or "protected" (because he got Covid!) is now calling other people dense. I swear you can't make this stuff up lol!

Once again, you may have gotten vaccinated, but you did NOT, I repeat, did NOT get "immunized". It's hilarious you can't admit that you weren't immune and that you're willing to die on this hill. 😂

*yawn* SS,DD

Went for blood work today. Facility had a sign it was back under a mask mandate. None of the staff wearing masks. A masker or two as patients. Nobody bothered anyone not wearing. Saw a mask on the ground like 20 feet from a trash can, lazy masker I guess.

Hopefully it is a sign that the population will not blindly mask up again thinking the masks do something.

Are you saying that if you have covid and are infectious that it is perfectly fine and dandy for you to meet and mingle with John Q. Public without you wearing a mask?

Don't you see how your wearing the mask might benefit others?

Don't you care?

I dont have Covid. If they have the vax the are safe. If they want protection of a mask they can wear it.

I’m going to fix this. It’s only 3 sentences so not difficult

1. I (probably) don’t have COVID.
2. If they have the vax they are (relatively) safe.
3. If they want the protection of a mask they can wear one. (No correction needed)

When we were first introduced to COVID it was possible it could turn out much worse than it did. Big PHARMA saved us with a vaccine. Smart doctors figured out how to treat it better. It’s now an inconvenience rather than an overriding health issue of our time.

So gotta agree with AZ despite my two easy corrections.

You deflected and didn't respond meaningfully to my question, so I will ask again,

Do you believe it is beneficial for someone who has covid and who is contagious to wear a mask if they will be around other people?

Sure. But you realize that EVERY DAY there are people contagious with COVID, the Flu, various bacterial pneumonias, assorted viral pneumonias, other contagious stuff I can’t think of right now, RIGHT BEHIND YOU in line at Walmart. Right next to you at the hockey game. Cooking your food at Arby’s.

It might be courteous to not go to those places. But the first guy needs his Walmart groceries. The second guy laid out $150 for his Kraken ticket. The third guy needs the $15 an hour he makes.

As AZ said, if YOU are afraid of catching COVID, and believe a mask helps, then wear a mask.

You miss the point.

I simply wonder whether the anti-vax crowd sees ANY value to wearing a mask, esp. when the individual has covid and will be around others.

Masks didn't work for anti-maskers because they wore them over their eyes.
