The seasonal flu has been a part of our lives forever. But the seasonal flu didn’t compel us to wear masks in public or in schools, require vaccinations, or shut down businesses.
The only counter argument I can think of is Omicron is more transmissible than the Flu.
I’m going with 0.
Currently, the fire department that I retired from has the highest number of people off sick in its history. They are basically all off with Omicron and none of them are seriously ill or even pretending to be seriously ill. The good thing is that the department was unable to fire all the unvaccinated people as they had planned to do. Strangely, none of the unvaccinated that I am aware of are ill, and all are being forced to work mandatory overtime to cover for the sick vaccinated people.
Yet the unvaccinated are still being told that they will be fired as soon as the crisis has ended. This is because of an order from our genius Governor Dimsley, a person so stupid and disgusting that he shouldn’t be allowed to sweep the floors at a fire station. Yet he is ending the careers of people who have worked for decades and have natural immunity that is giving them much better protection against new forms of Covid than the vaccines.
This is all part of the scam people. It is not possible.
Yes. Meanwhile, 8 of 9 UC campuses are “starting remote” for Spring semester, while about 10 of the 30 Cal State campuses are.
My son’s Cal State campus, all credit to them, is standing firm and starting Spring semester in person. Thank God.
These kids have done everything asked of them: vaxxed, boosted, tested, masked. . .they deserve an excellent in-person education.
Omicron is such BS (I had it last week).
The actual death rate from Covid is WAY less than many people think, too.
Yep
It’s dropped to way less than the seasonal Flu - and they continue to push the terror tactics that have mentally imbalanced a LOT of people.
Local Health Food place (single owner) was demanding masks until he realized he couldn’t stay in business like that because most of us Mississippians decided “fuck the masks” long ago.
These days, he will have unmasked customers in the place while he still guards the door with his mask from cheek bones to Adam’s apple and he asks everyone entering, “Are you healthy today?”
A recent article called it a mental illness and they are 100% correct.
