you mean the bird flu usians have been innoculating?
yeah. if last time was any indication of whats to come, we are fuckkkkkeedd
If we’re lucky it kills most US politicians before it crosses the borders. (If by some miracle countries do the right thing at the right time, i.e. closing the borders)
At this point, I don’t even care. Let a new Covid infest the anti-maskers and take them out of our misery.
except that’s how pandemics get more deadly
Sadly, this is true. But since common sense is lost on those cretins, they can get what’s coming. I’m done giving a fuck.
ah yes, progressive eugenics
When there’s an easy, widely available solution to ensure the safety of yourself and those around you, which you loudly refuse?
Yeah that’s on you bud
Viruses are progressive, now. 😂 Good luck to you, and wash your hands. You seem like the type that needs to be reminded.
you seem like the type of dipshit that assumes airborne viruses go away with handwashing
Listen, if you want to keep arguing and being childish, Reddit is still available. I’m done now. ☺️
the covid pandemic never ended, people are doing a dare every day by going outside unmasked
Its become endemic & can be mitigated with basic hygiene and vaccine programmes.
People don’t do basic hygiene. The amount of people who never wash their hands is sickening
No. Because it’s airborne and vaccines are not effective enough because not enough people are vaccinated.
PS I fucking hate long covid.
MASKING IS A BASIC HYGIENE PRACTICE! washing your hands while hotboxing stranger’s lung cum in public won’t do shit.
endemic according to who? eugenicists?
vaccines don’t prevent long covid or infection. there is still no sterilizing vaccine on the market. going in public unmasked while vaccinated doesn’t absolve you from the disabling or deadly consequences of you infecting vulnerable people
Lung cum? Really?
Virologists actually.
I hate wearing facemasks and I did so during the actual pandemic but they’re simply not needed now.

My boss is a virologist and she says WEAR A FUCKING MASK.
Very interesting, I’d love to see a peer reviewed paper done by her on this subject! Would be quite the interesting read.
you only think masks aren’t needed anymore because your privilege prevents you from experiencing the full consequences of your violence.
the long covid community has been clear that you shouldn’t go outside unmasked for years now. if you decide to continue ignoring us, that’s on you. and no, linking science that doesn’t consult disabled people doesn’t absolve you from your dangerous views
I feel like this is such an overreaction. Violence?! I’ve got some permanent symptoms after COVID and mono, and I won’t judge anyone for wearing a mask. I’d happily comply with masking requirements in places where vulnerable people often visit like hospitals or elderly homes. But violence?
Masks were quite annoying and honestly didn’t seem too effective here. Not because a well applied mask doesn’t help, I fully believe that it does, but the average person just didn’t use them correctly and other measures like vaccination were way more effective. When the hospitals are filling up it absolutely makes sense to enforce these kind of rules, every little bit helps. But it’s not 2021 anymore. The virus at this point is more like a spicy flu than the unknown hospital filler that it was in 2020-2022. Expecting people to mask everywhere is unreasonable imo and calling it violence or dangerous is definitely an overreaction.

“Biden propaganda”. Lol. Not everyone is from the US. Also, I think we agree about masks so no need to call it bullshit. They didn’t work because people wore relatively ineffectieve masks and didn’t use them properly. I agree that if everyone used the right masks properly it would’ve had a big effect. But that measure is no longer realistic given the urgency of the crisis. Everything we do as humans carries risk, we can’t live fully sterile and perfectly safe. Every time you travel you can get into an accident, a lot of food or drinks we consume are bad for us, and likewise going anywhere were people are you can get ill. I got mono before COVID started and it fucked me up. Should people no longer share drink glasses or kiss to avoid the risk?
The COVID crisis was a crisis because the disease was bad enough for the average person to cause a significant amount of hospitalizations. That was lifted due to immunity from vaccines and infections and due to mutations. Now it’s just another flu: dangerous to the vulnerable people and it can definitely fuck you up, but not in such numbers that it cripples society.
violence.
See, hysterical bullshit like this is why nobody takes you wierdos seriously.
Please don’t call mask wearers weirdos. Ever since I’ve had Covid, ANY virus does a number on me. My wife will have the sniffles for 3 days and I’ll end up with a high fever and bronchitis for weeks. And I hadn’t even had a cold for at least decade before I caught Covid.
This guy’s a nutter, but I still get it. I’m beyond tired of this shit too.
I meant no offence, I wasn’t mocking the mask. I was mocking the "boy who cried
wolfvIoLeNcE.
??? If literally touching grass is violence in your book then I don’t know what to tell you.
On a final note, whilst we may speak of a time beyond the pandemic, we are still very much in the midst of one. We are not out of it yet. At the present time, the world continues to grapple with the Omicron variant
good job linking a source that disproves your own claim lol
(Check the date on that one, was in 2022)
https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S221188372300076X Paper on covids endemic phase in Finland
https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2211883723000916 similar but for Norway
There always was. It just took a few years for the dice to roll that way again.
Wasn’t this how “28 minutes later” started? They had a monkey they were playing truth, dare, double dare, promise or repeat with and bam. Angry plague!
