My average is 97.6, when I spark a 99 on the thermometer I already feel like hell.
This is the case for every virus, except they tend to track towards higher contagiousness and milder symptoms. The Spanish Flu still exists and goes through regular rotations, itās just very weak now, compared to the 1918 variant. Covid 19 is here to stay, heard immunity is the best possible outcome for everybody.
I notice that all you do is personally attack people while peddling some psuedo-intellectual bullshit with out actually saying anything. Based on this, I assume you self-isolate, wear 2 masks and a face shield because your not a snowflake and Fauci said so?
And are you implying people should be shot for not wearing masks? And how is, āit happened beforeā an argument? I never wear a mask and I go anywhere I want and I donāt give a ratās ass what people think about it.
Huh
No, I wear a mask in closed public spaces because Iām not a sociopath. I know that mildly inconveniencing oneself for a potentially marginal benefit of someone else goes against the central tenet of your anti-science religion and upsets you greatly.
Iām just saying that in the āgood old days when men were menā that conservatives supposedly yearn for, āmask-slackersā were shot on more than one occasion.
Because theyāre not yearning for the actual time period, but for a Disneyfied, cherry picked theatrical illusion of said āgood old daysā.
Iām sure you do. Itās all about āmeā, āmeā, āmeā

As do Iā¦ however I donāt wear one outdoors
Getting paid for not working is the most dangerous virus of allā¦
Highlight: The cityās school superintendent in turn declined to allow them to teach remotely, instead canceling school for 330,000 children in the nationās third-largest school district.

Sociopaths, historically, wore masks often in the commission of a crime. However, since you must be diseaased and spit a lot when you talk, we all appreciate it. I donāt want to get any you on me, for sure.
Religiously complying with a ridiculous edict, that makes no sense and clearly does not work is a cultish fever I have never personally experienced.
Sounds like your just full of shit.
Yup, I worry about myself, not others. They arenāt my business, I am.

Actually he isnātā¦ this did happen from time to time during influenza.
Though lockdowns werenāt really a thing.
Yes, they were, only they were not called ālockdownsā. Confinement to oneās home was a standard procedure for cholera and yellow fever outbreaks.
I strongly recommend Baldwinās book (from 1999, mind you) about the depressingly regular occurrence of confinement and quarantine measures in Europe.
Contagion and the State in Europe, 1830-1930 (cambridge.org)
And if someone objects that these are socialist Europeans, we are talking about, look up yellow fever epidemics in the US - notably An American Plague about the 1793 Philadelphia outbreak .
Someone shot you for not wearing a mask? Do tell.
Back during the Spanish flu
Anecdotally I died seventy three times for not wearing a mask.

And what about mandatory masks outdoors? School closures? Arrests?
The spoiled snowflakes will whine about āunprecedented assault on freedomsā while being completely ignorant of relatively recent history.
Processions of flagellants were also a key measure to fight pandemics in the past. Somehow that wouldnāt seem at all out-of-place today, either.
There were a lot of snowflakes back then who didnāt want to do their part for public health. Even if the benefits of flagellation were marginal at best there was nothing quite like a procession of flagellants to make everyone else feel safe from the plague.
No they werenāt. And if we are to find their modern equivalent of flagellants, that would be āI trust my immune systemā crowd with their quasi-religious beliefs in the power of magical ointments (HCQ, IVM).
Of course they were. I expect better historical awareness from you. Self-flagellation seems entirely congruent with many of the theatrical measures we take today under the banner of public health.
If you donāt believe me, ask a parent with a kid in school right now how much their kid is learning. Or ask a company that just had to let go of a good chunk of the brain trust so the rest of us donāt get the sniffles. Or ask the guy walking outside by himself with a mask on.
There is a lot of non-functional, performative self-flagellation taking place on a society-wide scale.
Yup, I am worried about my freedom. I like it. You can choose to be as unfree as you want, but even the slightest perceived slight against freedom needs to be combated with iron fist. Compliance, normalcy bias, that the two most dangerous statements ever utteredā¦
- āIt cannot happen here.ā
- āItās just a ________________.ā
Thatās how you find yourself under tyranny and realizing you welcomed it it.
It never comes in and takes over violently. Its voted in and cheered, more often than not. Part of the people want to control the behavior of other people and that part welcomes āby any means necessaryā mentalities to force compliance.
I reckon you would have like to have been in the red guard under Mao. Enforcing the state and beating and killing your fellow man for tepid violations.
I thought the point of history was to learn from the past so you donāt repeat, not look at it as a play book to guide the future.
This is the power of the mainstream at workā¦ Believing this insane narrative is gobsmacking to me. What kind of moron thinks that half the country is a cabal of far right extremists anti-virals and de-wormers like a junkie to horse.
Thatās a āshame on youā. The KGB used the term āuseful idiotā. Donāt look at me, I didnāt invent the term. The KGB infiltrated the U.S. university system starting in the 50ās and beyond looking for āintellectualsā with soft brains, who would give marxist narratives a chance and seeded the crap we put up with today. That was the term they used, āuseful idiotā. I give them credit, even from the grave the Soviet Union had the last laugh. they played the long game and have convinced a good portion of the population of this nation of the merits of marxist ideology. Sure we call it woke, or BLM, or intersectionality, or politically correct, but itās roots are marxism. Oppressed and oppressor and perceived oppressors are to be dealt with harshly. Oppressors are made up, they are not innate. Itās not according to a hierarchy, itās according to a story.
I was referring to your poor attempt to link the religious fervor of flagellants to public health measures when thereās an actual comparison - proponents of ānatural immunityā and their quasi-religious fervor devoid of any basis in fact.
Public health measures work. Theyāre a blunt instrument and this is the first time in history that a bunch of selfish snowflakes decided theyāll close their ears and eyes and hope that the āWuhan fluā will somehow magically disappear purely by the power of their hurt feelings.
With 850k+ dead in the US from āthe snifflesā? Again, itās all about āmeā āmeā āmeā and.
By the way, how did those ābrain trustā people drive to work? Did they voluntarily submit themselves to the tyranny of traffic lights on intersections? Itās blatant curbing of personal freedom and people are dying in car crashes nevertheless, so traffic lights are performative theater, right? The liberty loving peoples should have taken a stand and rebelled against the oppression meted out through traffic tickets.
