my grandma's entire retirement home caught it and i was super worried but nobody even has symptoms (they are all triple vaxed). Wouldn't even have noticed if they didn't test for it weekly.
huge L for Omicron.

how is that an L? A virus that doesn't kill as many hosts and spreads easy, omicron might just be here to stay like the common flu. We'll all just have to get shots for it on the reg.
By Xpike Go To Postno one gets seriously sickWe're not there yet. Maybe after a couple more mutations.
virus stays around forever
everyone wins/s
Also, how the fuck isn't there a vaccine mandate for schools? Not even in California.
By maxpower Go To PostWe're not there yet. Maybe after a couple more mutations.Do you think they would stick? Because the Supreme Court already booted the work one.

By maxpower Go To PostWe're not there yet. Maybe after a couple more mutations.true but seems like more and more countries will just go with the approach of can't lock it all down forever to save a few.
our government intends to drop everything but mask mandate in stores and public transport by february 15. i can't really argue against it since even doctors and medical experts say it's fine.
speaking of vaccine mandates we're going to vote on banning vaccine mandates soon even though a vaccine mandate doesn't exist and was never proposed by anyone.

By blackace Go To PostDo you think they would stick? Because the Supreme Court already booted the work one.I would hope that a mandate for school would be more accepted but this country does suck so probably not.
By maxpower Go To PostI would hope that a mandate for school would be more accepted but this country does suck so probably not.There has been a not-insignificant amount people refusing to vax their kids, even in California, for a couple decades now. It's why there have been a ton more cases of mumps and measles in the US when they were practically eradicated for the like 50 years prior to the 2000's.
I can't remember if they just end up home-schooling their children or started to form/join private schools without vax requirements.
Sweden is following Denmark, Norway and Finland and will lift all Covid imposed restrictions on february 9th.
By LeonidDikapriovLung Go To PostSweden had restrictions?!Max people within a closed space so that you had 10m2 to yourself lol
Japan had it's first 100k day yesterday. It's almost as if packed trains/buses are bad ideas during a pandemic
Just continue testing, Bold.
I would say I'm 95% back to normal now, just some tiredness hanging over me, especially in the mornings.

By Laboured Go To PostJust want to crawl up into a ball and die at the thought that people like this exist.
What, people that went to university to study philosophy?
I wonder if cases going down in the US is due to most people just testing at home with rapid tests. But at least the daily deaths are beating hospitalizations so overall they are going down too.
By Batong-TT Go To PostJust continue testing, Bold.woke up

dumped out, and feeling much better.
thanks, buddy
By Laboured Go To PostJust want to crawl up into a ball and die at the thought that people like this exist.The heart inflammation very few have off the vaccine as an argument against it annoys me so much knowing how much that happens in covid patients as well as even worse heart damage. Then you got your Rogans and Malones talking about how young people should just forgo it because they'll be fine? Why? Because they're less likely to die? We still don't know the long term effects of covid, why in fucks would anyone want it on purpose? Even some mostly asymptomatic people have reported losses of taste/smell. People make my brain hurt.
By Laboured Go To PostJust want to crawl up into a ball and die at the thought that people like this exist.He goes straight from "Don't appeal to authority" to "Dr. Robert Malone says..."
Least the anchor did some good pushback about his research when trying to talk to a world renown authority on the matter. Need more of "oh it's cute how you think you know more than someone who's elbows deep in this every day for years after an hour on your laptop."
Something that I haven't got my head around yet.
The people that go around claiming that the vaccine is killing people and that MRNA technology was designed by Bill Gates and George Soros to alter people's DNA. They want for there to be arrests and trials. However, surely if you were going to charge people, two of them would the "inventor of the vaccine" Robert Malone and Donald Trump, who brags about being responsible for the vaccine and how it was only because of him that it was released so quickly. But they never go after them like that.

COVID test reimbursement through insurance is a fucking HASSLE, and this is one of the easier ones because it's all online but my god I think I'd have an easier time buying a car.
We've reached 16640 active cases today. Before Omicron, we had never reached 800.
Hospitalisations are on a high, with 60 people hospitalised (9 on ICU), more than double than our previous record.
We also had 5 deaths this week, don't think we ever had a month with more than 3 deaths.
People seem to have completely given up at this point.
The regional government is already talking about lifting up restrictions which seems ridiculous.
3 months ago if we had more than 140 new cases a day it was shocking, now 1400 new daily cases is the norm.
And this week I had a coworker laughing a lot, I asked him why and he said a new study had come out that proved that Ivermectin had been proved to cure COVID after all.
The results of that study have been corrected since then but it was infuriating to see him happy about that.
No surprise that he is a huge Joe Rogan fan.

Dad tested positive and I happened to be with him on Sunday so I'm going into quarantine.
Self tested negative Monday morning and then had a proper test in the evening of which I have to wait 48 hours for the results.
Meanwhile my boss is shitting her collective pants huehuehue

By Punished Go To PostSome symptomatic, covid positive kid my ma teaches went to two birthday parties at the weekend. lolKids dun care. They'd rather contract the virus and get it over with.
Still haven't gotten my free tests, and I ordered the day before when the website went live. Also, remember when Biden said we would get free high quality masks?
Welp, I'm positive but just have a mild cough. Not going to plant my face into a pillow like some friends of mine who were literally dying on their beds. If it stays like this then I'm lucky.
Lol, California is gonna drop the mask requirement for vaccinated people. Have these idiots not learned nothing? Also where the hell is the vaccine mandate for schools Newsom? I'd like to be able to send my kid to kinder next school year.

By MF Coom Go To PostWelp, I'm positive but just have a mild cough. Not going to plant my face into a pillow like some friends of mine who were dying on their beds. They've had it worse. If it stays like this then I'm lucky.I just had a crazy fever for 2 days and after that I was super tired for about 3 days. Nanobots did their jobs.
My Da, his girl and their kids breezed through it though the 1.2 year old was having a rough time sleeping breathing etc.
By Lunatic Go To PostMy Da, his girl and their kids breezed through it though the 1.2 year old was having a rough time sleeping breathing etc.my daughter and wife did better than me.
By blackace Go To Postmy daughter and wife did better than me.Good to hear. Probably made going through that easier.
Let's hope subvariant BA.2 doesn't fuck everything up again in the US. It finally feels like things are getting better.
By blackace Go To PostI just had a crazy fever for 2 days and after that I was super tired for about 3 days. Nanobots did their jobs.Different than what I'm currently going through. Actually, it felt worse when I got my vaccination.
Ain't shit compared to the flu that I had at the start of 2020 where I was I could feel my life force slipping away. Now I have a sore throat like I've been throat fucked by Bailey Jay.
