This country that was once free, is no longer, all because of people pushing some stupid ass booster shot that lasts 3 months for only 1 variant at a time.

And like I said what is the point when there are no healthy young people dying?
I live in MS I’ve been free as a bird this entire time even during the stay home orders because as a subcontractor I’m considered essential.


Dying was not the only thing to worry about. How about not being able to work for weeks on end especially last year during delta. I’ll be goddamned if I lose out on money.

That's definitely not true. At the very beginning, this was a real threat. Not to any one individual, especially someone not "at-risk" somehow, but if you extrapolated the hospitalization and health care strain from the initial surge in March '20 and let it go unchecked, it would have caused a worldwide disaster. The original estimates of the virus at the time, which all seem pretty accurate, estimated the IFR mortality rate to be 0.5% (and much less outside the at-risk groups) if treatments are available for everyone who needs them and the healthcare resources weren't strained beyond their capacity and could be as high as 3% if the kind of hospital overflow we saw in Italy and Wuhan at the outset of the pandemic were to spread worldwide. The initial spread of the virus had to be slowed as much as possible as quickly as possible. Those lockdowns and restrictions in March '20 through about the end of April '20 were absolutely necessary and saved many, many lives. Since about the beginning of May '20, the government response has gotten worse and worse. At this point, omicron is basically a cold and we're at the point where we don't really need to worry much anymore except for treating those that are at-risk.

Don't know if it was covid or what, but took a covid test yesterday so I'll know soon enough. Despite being a mild fever, the past 7 days were brutal.
Finally broke that fever eh? We got sick same time and I had confirmed covid. (+ 3 tests)

Yes we should accept there is no COVID pathogen and we are susceptible to colds and flus like we always were.

Too bad people are gullible retards that believe there's actually a novel coronavirus

Well they did get rid of the flu. They simply stopped testing for it and changed the PCR primers to coronavirus gene sequences instead.

Surprisingly, the rate of respiratory infections didn't change at all but they sure did make influenza statistically disappear

They're now beginning to test for it again hence "flurona". They will slowly phase out the COVID tests and just like a magic trick the government vanquished COVID and the flu returned after its long needed vacation.

How did it take you 2 years to reach a conclusion that was obvious 20 months ago?

You have no idea if you've had covid or not.

Maybe i already caught it early on and I now have immunity of the gods that prevents me from getting infected, even against the newer variants. But i'll never know because I haven't been sick for the past few years (not even a cough). and I can't just walk in to a pharmacy and ask for an antibody test either.
Same, been around tons of infected people at many businesses since this started and not only have I not gotten covid, I haven't gotten anything. I had a stuffy nose for about 6 hours a few days ago. Maybe that was it, hahah.
A million miles away - I don't.. feel.... anything.

As is the case with any virus.
Yet vaxcel cucks will brainwash you into thinking you need quarterly boosters to prevent a 2nd, 3rd or 4th case of covid which CoUld bE dEaDlY.

I've mentally checked out of any Covid news tbh, not worth investing any thought into anymore. Ignoring all news has definitely been a benefit for me. I'll just continue to resist the vaccine until there's either a revolution or the morons in power decide they've made enough money from the sheep and stop pushing the vaccines entirely

Yes. If not this wave, you'll get it like you would one of the other 4 coronaviruses that we pass around. Considering your situation it's good you've been extra careful but it's ~95% less dangerous than before now, making it far less lethal and side effects than seasonal flu. And there are OTC ways to treat it effectively.

If you're prone to pneumonia, making sure your nitric oxide levels are high (via L-Arginine twice a day) when you catch Coof or any respiratory virus. There's a study in The Lancet on it. And absolutely get yourself some NAC. Dozens of studies how it will help. Not sure if this will conflict with your meds but a decent idea also is Turkey Tail mushroom powder. I know it improves chemotherapy with colon and breast cancers and is a good overall immune booster (hence use with Covid), but your situation may vary.

from your very first sentence that is 100% speculation

its also very possible that if we had done nothing, and not intervened with this booster shot and isolation, everyone would have gotten sick in the initial infection who would have got sick and we could have moved on and already been living normal possibly with no issue with variants.

You just really can't say. So your explanation is entirely something I disagree with and think in fact the opposite, that if we had acted way less strict we would be in a much better place now.

And like I said what is the point when there are no healthy young people dying?
I am still unwell from the booster shot 3 weeks later. I have terrible dizziness and elevated liver enzymes. The Dr gave me some dizziness medication and said side effects could last up to 4 weeks.

I’m so upset as I don’t know when this will end and that we are mandated to risk our health this way. I won’t even be able to sue big pharma if I have permanent damage. I HOPE this is from all of the Tylenol I took to keep my booster shot fever down.
