You seemed to be chastising him for putting others at risk. Maybe I’m misunderstanding where the strengths and weaknesses lie from your perspective.

Thanks, I’ll stick with the vitamins, and minerals along with the vaccine.

“Such a selfless person ministering to the poor and downtrodden.”

I have no idea whether you are being sarcastic, or who you are referring to here.

Have a nice day.

True, but it might be unavoidable, like the common cold. The vast majority of us catch a cold every year or two.

Even the exceptional people who say they never catch colds may be catching them without knowing it.

If the symptoms are milder than a mild allergy, how would one know?

It’s not like we run out and get tested for the common cold - if we have no symptoms we assume we have nothing - if the symptoms are mild, we just guess whether it’s a cold or perhaps allergies.

All the testing - which is far from reliable - has made our response to the Covid19 coronavirus unique as compared to our response to other coronaviruses such as the common cold.

You honestly don’t know what’s going on, do you? In the last two years, of the 75 to 100 people I see on a regular basis, one woman told me that she was diagnosed over the phone with covid and the only other one who told me he had covid is the guy that I met in the last 3 days. These people are smoking crack, drinking booze, sleeping under bridges and none of them complained about getting covid. Somebody came into our church during the sharathon for the radio station and within a week and 1/2 / 75 people in church all came down with covid. I got it from sitting in the normal church service. For you to make any claim that the downtown homeless people are the ones spreading the virus means that you don’t have a clue what you’re talking about. I see these people daily and they’re not getting sick.

I want to thank you for your loving and caring response to my concerns about being able to keep my weekly schedule with my VA doctors and the beginning of a new semester at college and how if I became covid positive again all of that would have to change and I don’t know the length that. It would change for. But I’m grateful that you showed the love and kindness you did and showing that you would least understood that it upset me that I not only got this on my birthday possibly but that my whole week’s schedule is going to be disrupted for something that I plainly stated I had antibodies for. I just want to thank you for that kindness.

It is strange, I have never stopped going to stores, restaurants and other places since covid reared it’s ugly head. And I do not take any vitamins out of a bottle. But no colds, no flu, no covid, no heart attacks.

Same here. And I never changed my diet either. I just keep right on living.

Are the homeless you see wearing masks? (I’m of the opinion masks are making people sick.)

No they’re not and as far as I know when they went into any of the local stores after panhandling to buy more food that the people who ran the stores were not asking them. I was out on the street the entire time last year until I got sick in November but I don’t remember any of them wearing masks. However, the guy that I was exposed to for the last well not the last but for Thursday Friday and Saturday, was wearing a mask Friday and Saturday but he was not wearing it Thursday. And a mask that he was wearing was sweat-drenched and looked like it needed a very strong Bass.

I bought two small tubes of brand-name zimecterin and these look like they will have four individual injections for me oh, so I intend on taking one every day for the next 3 days and then get tested on Wednesday and see if there’s anything in me.

Delta “variant” mutation of the S-Protein genes of covid was detected in India first in Dec. 2020.

April 2021 huge surge in India of Delta infects uptick in deaths from... well, overcrowding and “covid”. They have all 5 vaccines, ivermectin, and most of the countryside takes HCQ regularly for malaria prevention and treatment, and in those demographics... very low covid of any variant.

Then, voila! per the Chi-Com Plandemic... the WHO and the comedy that is the CDC are lockstep.... the SURGE of “Delta” oh no!! Mandate vaccines which are theoretical mRNA vaccines NOT to be applied to the non-risk groups, being pushed for .... everybody! Why is that— Fauci? Whom does it serve. Over 70 and at risk co-morbids potential vaccine, but the mRNA form is clearly causing extra problems and frankly deaths.

Now we have the “fall” of Afghanistan, which is ORCHESTRATED by the Chi-Coms (they have a railroad they built from Pakistan into Afghanistan, to haul out the rare earth minerals the US was said to be staying in Afghan to keep away from the Chi-Coms) and BIDEN and his corruptocrats and his family of paid Chi-Com apparatchiks are DOING WHAT THEY ARE TOLD. Bought and paid for in the classic Chinese compromise.

Plandemic, ignoring the Trump entire plan for retiring from Afghan (Harris had a hand in this) and don’t forget— OPEN borders with oozing hundreds of thousands of COVID infected spreaders FLOWN around the US. BIO warfare- asymmetric warfare. The Chinese Communists and their clear allies in Congress (rino/chinos and dino-crats), and the media plays right along.

Rant over. This is what is happening. And we can do something about all this... starting with Xiden et cie.

I’m not the one who knows anything about it... I’ve just read what other freepers have said and pointed you to their advice. Good luck, RaceBanon.

Your post...

"I have three doctors appointments on Monday and I start college on Thursday and I really hope that my previous antibodies from my November covid spell are going to be sufficient to fight off this guy's germs. He's only the second one to tell me of all the homeless down here that they had covid. The first one told me she was diagnosed over the phone, but this guy just recently getting out of jail I'm wondering did he get a real test somewhere but I didn't press him on details I was just shocked that he said it and that I've been sitting next to him on Thursday Friday and Saturday, today. Oh brother... "

So all that rambling about having personal concern for your 'health' was really about your schedule? And all the freepers responding to you with hopes & prayers for your good health were also ALL wrong to have interpreted your posts as a 'health concern' the same way I did.

Yeah, okay... got it. It was all about scheduling. So excuse me and all the other freepers for misinterpreting your ramblings, especially your last line about how much you clearly articulated how worried you were for your schedule:

"... I was just shocked that he said it(has COVID) and that I've been sitting next to him on Thursday Friday and Saturday, today. Oh brother... "

I would bet dollars to donuts that your words 'I was shocked' and 'Oh brother' were not emotional reactions to scheduling worries.

You really are inoffensive jerk to come on to a thread and then try and tear apart what somebody says just because you think you’re proving yourself smarter than everyone. Guess what sweetheart, you lost this time.

you’re so smart...

knowing that a new infection would cancel 3 appts today, cancel starting college on thursday, postpone all doc appts at the va for 3 weeks and maybe have it 18 days again and have to withdraw all my classes...

yeah, you are so smart...

what an offensive troll.

“my previous antibodies from my November covid spell are going to be sufficient to fight off this guy’s germs”

They are more than sufficient.

you may get a headache, but you yourself would be fine.

What is a high probability is that you may spread it to the next group of people you meet
