The government is still screaming “French kiss every stranger you meet then spit directly in to their mouths”, which is not helpful.

The wastewater numbers and test positivity in my area are both higher than previous troughs and trending up. Does that mean Covid is spreading more aggressively? Does it mean anything? The only data I have, and that as far as I know anyone has, is test positivity and wastewater numbers. I feel like I’m going fucking nuts because EVERYONE, including the fucking contagion dispersal cult, says Covid is over but the actual available data says it’s trucking right along and nothing has changed.

Do medical professionals just not give a shit about Long Covid? Is that what this is, that post-Covid symptoms are not being in any way accounted for in evaluating risk to the public? Just not being considered at all?>

Because apparently Oregon claims you can go back to spitting in people’s mouths after 24 fucking hours.

At that time, a large chunk of the population was testing positive all at once because of the highly contagious variant. Recommending that everyone stay home — and out of work — for 10 days would have brought the country to a halt once again, so the five-day plan was put in place.

Nice to see someone just straight out say that the 5 day bullshit was about money and not about human life. I AHTE AEJKL:jd;fgsajk df;gjlk ;ape[faerghjkl ;egras [ijopu

Nope. Most of them don’t give a shit. Very few MDs that I’ve worked with show any outward expression of understanding that they could be patients afflicted by what they are treating in the near future.

Yeah I just cannot wrap my head against medical staff not masking up. I was at the clinic a few days ago, some guy could not stop coughing, and I was the only person in the building masked up.

LIke what the fuck do they think he had? Do they think he ate a hot wing too fast or something? I don’t get it at all. But then I’m also the guy who has spent his whole life bullying people to wear their seatbelts and PPE, so maybe I’m just built different/insane.

We are built different. I am definitely insane, though I think that’s a product of being more safety conscious than most and constantly being bullied by them. In 2015ish a friend of mine told me I should speed so that we could get home faster. He advised 20 over the limit in a 75 zone where I was already driving 75 (which is faster than we should allow cars to drive imho) so that we could arrive home maybe 10 minutes earlier. I said fuck that and kept the CC set to 75.
